Déjà vu: 49ers management Seahawks on the bottom as soon as extra
FOX soccer analyst and former NFL quarterback Brock Huard highlighted this on Friday on Seattle Sports’ Brock and Salk, roughly 12 hours following the Seahawks' 36-24 loss to the NFC West rival San Francisco 49ers in primetime.
Specifically, Huard talked about Seattle's beginning QB, Geno Smith, and its standout huge receiver, DK Metcalf.
“My own inference, my own speculation without seeing all the tapes is when you lose in this manner, some of that conflict and some of those flares that those two – DK and Geno in particular – have had over the years starts evolving into something more,” Huard said.
Huard clearly identified that viewers solely witness a restricted portion on a TV broadcast, however he believes a number of incidents seen on Thursday evening – a visibly irritated Metcalf utilizing a headset through the sport, presumably talking to offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb, and Smith's postgame press conference – didn't current an interesting view.
“We're bound by the cameras and the angles we witness,” Huard said, prefacing his feedback. “… Did we observe Geno having any discussions with DK yesterday on the sideline?”
Not that that is totally uncommon. One particular person seen conversing with Metcalf on the sidelines was backup QB Sam Howell, a scenario Huard can perceive from his personal time as Peyton Manning's backup with the Indianapolis Colts, who had a star receiver on the time in Marvin Harrison.
“I noticed Sam Howell down there attempting to pacify DK, which is a wise move. That was regularly the move that I had to make for Peyton to calm Marvin down when Marvin didn't receive sufficient touches,” Huard talked about. “I had to essentially go down there and manage some of that. … Bless Sam yesterday, Sam was the one – ‘Hey, will you handle that guy? Will you attempt to help him, calm him down?'”
Now, if there may be certainly a difficulty and it persists past Thursday's sport?
“That's going to be crucial to pacify. Extremely crucial for this young coach and this inexperienced staff to attempt to find a solution,” Huard declared. “These are not 18 to 25 year olds in college anymore. These are 26 to 34 year olds, with pretty stubborn and sizeable egos who will challenge and will confront. Managing that relationship in the upcoming days and weeks will be exceedingly, exceedingly critical for Mr. Grubb and Mr. Macdonald.”
