Episode 2 of The Hawks Playbook podcast. Bill and Keith break down the current state of the defense for the Seattle Seahawks before the offseason begins.

This week on The Hawks Playbook, Bill and Keith break down the current state of the defense for the Seattle Seahawks. Just like with the offense last week, there was a lot to talk about.

The combine was also previewed briefly, as was John Schneider’s Combine presser. Both Keith and Bill were happy to hear John Schneider admit to the mistakes made on the offensive line last year. Hopefully that will lead to changes being made before the 2017 season.

This week we managed to keep things a shorter overall. At 57 minutes, I still think it is a bit long personally. Our target time is 40-45 minutes. There was just a lot to talk about, but this should be the last one that runs this long.

Just like last week, you can listen directly from this page, or download the podcast to your mobile device. You can also subscribe to the podcast on BTR, and will be able to do so on iTunes and other aggregators at some point in the next couple of weeks.
