Maybe she just likes Darnold
I mean...there was a vid last season of her at a Vikings home game where she blew the Vikings horn (or whatever the hell that is). Plus, I think she's from Minnesota.

She’s a Vikings diehard but it’s not uncommon for the GMFB peeps to adorn whatever team attire they are feeling in the moment. I’ve seen her wear Seahawks gear in the past too, long before Darnold was a Seahawk. It’s just a cool tip of the cap to a team doing well.

Wasn't there a viking fan that was suddenly a chargers fan and she got some weird media attention because of her dedicated fandom? It just seemed really fake...

I really don’t like that show at all. What type of football show does an entire broadcast without showing and/or talking about the highlights from every game the day before?

I keep trying to give it a chance and record it but it just never gets better.

I used to feel the same way. But the current cast is actually pretty good. Jaimie is a good host, knowledgeable and keeps the show at pace. Manti Teʻo is a great new addition with perspective as a former player. Thankfully they got rid of American Ninja Warrior's Akbar Gbajabiamila. I thought he was terrible. Isaiah Stanback is a much better TV personality and fit. Kyle Brandt is one of the main reasons I watch the show. He's the OG, just the right amount of curmudgeon, great at hot takes, wicked IQ with everything pop culture and football and his Angry Run segments are fantastic.

I get the show isn't for everyone but it's my morning coffee so-to-speak, and they really do grow on you.

As for highlights, they do cover all the games in a 2 hour span on Mondays.

I have no problem with the personalities but if you’re not one of their select few any given week then forget getting much if any coverage.

Speaking of coverage, can someone point out the Seahawks coverage today? I had it on today to watch Seahawks/Jags highlights and discussion. There was nada, zip, zero, zilch. These are two winning teams with possible playoff opportunities and all we get is a shirt? Lame.

I watched but both of these and others on YouTube premium. While I do love the praise, I cannot and do not take power rankings or praise that seriously this early in the season. I’m very wary of the media at this point. The only seasons where I had FULL confidence in this team was 2013 and 2014.

I have only watched the first 40 minutes or so today. Busy staining my deck. Kyle has been on record this season mentioning the Seahawks as one of the teams he thinks is going to the playoffs and going to be dangerous. That's a big step for him since in year's past I wondered if he even knew there was a team called the Seattle Seahawks.

It's one of my pet peeves with the show. They definitely do tend to ignore the Seahawks in general. Not out of hate but they know their ratings are directly corelated with the darlings and storied franchises of the league. This is why they talk so much about the Cowboys, Packers, Patriots, Giants, Jets, Steelers, etc, etc, etc.

Even they admit it.

I shrug my shoulders and get it. I still enjoy the show for the reasons I stated before. Again, not for everyone.

I get my Seahawks fix watching all the local/regional broadcasters and sports figures who cover the team via local news and YouTube channels.

It’s ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE, don’t waste your time.

I consider it “unwatchable”
