They revisit New England\u2019s sluggish start last season, Mike Vrabel\u2019s return to the spotlight, and the NFL kickoff. Mitch, Brady and Jacson reunite for the Seahawks No-Table to assess Seattle\u2019s offseason extensions, the arrival of new ownership and the mindset surrounding the defending champs. They dig into Brian Fleury\u2019s new offense, a depleted running back room, concerns at cornerback and Sam Darnold\u2019s long-term future before previewing Wednesday\u2019s opener against New England. Mitch and Ray launch another season of Upon Further Review with some offensive-line appreciation, from Ray\u2019s Barry Sanders days to growing confidence in Anthony Bradford and Abe Lucas. Ray explains why Seattle\u2019s decision to sit its starters\u2014and rookie running back Jadarian Price\u2014through the preseason makes him nervous entering Wednesday night. They also discuss how big contracts affect players before turning to Ray\u2019s biggest concern: whether Jason Myers can shake off a disastrous preseason. Mitch and Rick recap a wild opening weekend, beginning with Georgia Tech burning Rick\u2019s first pick and Western Michigan\u2019s heartbreaking finish at Michigan. They hit Oregon\u2019s scare against Boise State, LSU\u2019s demolition of Clemson, Washington\u2019s ugly Apple Cup win, Notre Dame\u2019s impressive debut and UCLA\u2019s resurgence before handing out Taco Time honors to UMass and Western Michigan. Mitch, Brady and Joe declare the Mariners\u2019 season all but dead after a disastrous homestand and turn their attention toward 2027. They debate everyday opportunities for L\u00e1zaro Montes and Michael Arroyo, the ugly clubhouse optics and the futures of Dan Wilson and Jerry Dipoto. &amp;nbsp; GUESTS &amp;nbsp;  Brady Henderson | ESPN.com Seahawks Insider Jacson Bevens | Seahawks Analyst, Cigar Thoughts Ray Roberts | Former Seahawks &amp;amp; Lions Offensive Tackle Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Dallas Renegades Head Coach &amp;amp; Former Washington Head Coach Brady Farkas |&amp;nbsp;Host,&amp;nbsp;Refuse to Lose&amp;nbsp;podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot  &amp;nbsp; TABLE OF CONTENTS &amp;nbsp; 0:00 | Apple Cup Snoozer, Seahawks-Patriots and Stump the Band 19:30 | Seahawks No-Table: Seahawks Title Defense, Roster Concerns and a Patriots Preview 58:19 | Ray Roberts: O-Line Confidence, Opening-Night Nerves and \u201cYou Got One Job\u201d 1:27:24 | Rick Neuheisel: Week One Chaos, Controversial Clocks and a Buckeyes Road Pick 1:47:50 | Mariners No-Table: Mariners Hit Rock Bottom and the 2027 Decisions Begin ","author_name":"Mitch Unfiltered","author_url":"https:\/\/mitchunfiltered.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/42808975\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/item\/42808975"}
