The stats and numbers can never tell the true story of JUST HOW GREAT BYRON MURPHY has been for the Seattle Seahawks. It really feels like this entire defense plays better behind him. The numbers dont reflect it, but if you know football and you have been watching Murph, then you know. People can FEEL his impact out there. What a beast. Easily gets my vote for defensive rookie of the year.. Nobody has looked better

[@Clark-shoots-bricks]

I disagree

[@Saixjacket]

He’s eating space, not losing at the point of attack and learning from the big cat and the 100 game Seahawk Jarren Reed. A young beast is being built!!!

As a Seahawks fan I would say Jared verse would get my vote

[@FreshlySnipes]

Im stoked for Murphy year 2… he should just get better and better each year.

[@real.cryptic]

He’s a young rookie. He’s going to get much much better.

[@leeroyjenkins4342]

Great breakdown! Thanks for the content! Go Hawks!

[@Sunnyyvaj]

Thank you so much for the reviews on the seahawks. Are you going to make a video about the seahawks RG at the Cardinals game? I want to know how you think he did. The broadcasters were talking about the RG a lot. Thank you! Keep up the good work.

[@chasebrostek8813]

He has been a monster. Still so happy that we picked him up in the draft.

[@_singram1588]

Paris Johnson had a rough outing. Now we know why.

[@scottanthony3426]

If you look at the leaps Mafe and Hall made from Year 1 to Year 2, it is pretty exciting to think about not only Murphy, but Knight as well. Coming out of the draft, they said he was a "tackling machine" in college, and that seems to be bearing out. Glad that Mike M seems a bit more willing to play the youth than Pete did, although why it took so long for Olu to get in as a regular when Connor Williams was struggling is perplexing.

[@PNW_STEFF]

What do you think of Taoa our 6th round RG?

[@scottanthony3426]

Yeah, I'm waiting for the "grades" to come out. Obviously, some things have gelled on this O-Line, and I'm anxious to see the analysis. I see perhaps 3-4 factors or changes. 1. Luama at RG instead of Bradford and Haynes. 2. Olu now getting more comfortable in Start # 4 or 5, and perhaps getting better. (Certainly not missing the snaps over Geno's head). 3. Abe Lucas now finishing his 3rd game back, and perhaps getting fully up to his game speed. 4. Maybe better scheming of the OL (see comments re the Zach 51 yard run). Whatever it was, the line was like night and day from our last game vs the Cards. If you go back and watch Zach's 51 yard TD, the blocking scheme is interesting. Both Lucas and Luama pull, but instead of pulling to their outside, they pull INSIDE, across the back of Olu and end up on the LEFT side. Luama is running parallel to the line of scrimmage, and absolutely pancakes a defender, and lands on top of him, while Lucas is blocking to help create the hole. Cross ends up to the right side of Lucas and Luama, and takes out a guy at what might be second level. Maybe this is an "every game" kind of thing, but I hadn't seen it in slow mo with some explaining. Very encouraging. I hope Luama is the new "answer" at RG. Maybe Haynes needs an off-season to work on his functional strength and can compete, but this group on this day was unrecognizable as the regular OL we've been seeing all year. And, zero sacks and only two hits on Geno. Been a while since we've seen a no sack on Geno day.

[@PNW_STEFF]

@scottanthony3426 appreciate the lengthy response go Hawks

[@Colbaltshimshim]

He is a bad man. Awesome.

[@The_Football_Scout]

He looked really good on some plays. I will try to get to the OL on Thursday this week.

[@ElmerSpuda]

He’s got a great future. Seahawks defense is for real right now though, he’s maybe their third best tackle.

[@daoandchayeng3249]

Year 1 only - will be a BEAST for years to come!! Go Hawks!!

[@jenmazz1257]

He’s a beast and you could see how our run D suffered without him. He will improve and 2nd year will be a mauler. 🎉. Thanks for the film 🎞️

[@bayanidomingo2736]

Now if Grubb can only get him a rep or 2 a game as a fullback on goal line carries like he did at UT.

[@sidneyvandykeii3169]

Murphy needs to add 20 lbs of Muscle. He could be the next Aaron Donald if he did that. Next year will tell.

[@2jYeti]

He's lean 310 already 😅 he plays behind jarran reed and Leonard Williams. He literally has half the reps

[@skibidiboyJJ]

lmao hes like 30 pounds heavier than aaron donald

[@sidneyvandykeii3169]

@@skibidiboyJJ Maybe he just needs to get that huge neck and massive shoulders like Donald had/has. He doesn't look as big to the naked eye.

[@Braveybaby]

@@sidneyvandykeii3169that’s because Aaron Donald was a freak of nature not everyone can look like him. That dude had like 3% body fat he was insane

Dude is a literal monster. Once he develops more pass rush moves its over with.

[@dxeam1888]

faxxxx

[@DawnstealerGaming]

Yeah - agreed. I don't think he'll ever blow up a stat sheet like, say, Donald, but the things he does make the entire defense better

[@Bdccc123]

Can you do a film study on Johnny newton rookie DT on the commanders

[@The_Football_Scout]

Yes, next week I will get to him on Monday/Tuesday

[@Ddonaldson9]

I'm not sure those first two clips are the best reps to be using as examples. They're hustle plays imho, which is great, but it's other players on D that are actually disrupting the play initially. And if that's not happening in those two reps, BM is likely just getting blocked out of the play. I don't disagree with your overall take or do see him winning in most of the others clips.

[@mikebara3437]

That’s exactly correct

[@61Wolves]

When you said set himself in the Gap does that mean the gap is taken over and not given up by him ?

[@rashan2424]

I'm waiting for the statistical breakout game

[@chrsitophercorcoran7989]

Im happy enough with murphy, at least he eats space and run blocks well, better yhem having al woods in there

[@eriksports]

Huge undersell. He consistently gets push into the backfield

[@seattlecarpenter]

He's a young rookie. He's barely 22.

Pffft Seahawks are not good watch in 3 weeks there season is over 😂

Meanwhile the Cards' season is over right now. 🤣🤣🤣

[@mikebara3437]

You’re cracked. I was at the game. I was watching Murphy for virtually every step he was in there, which really wasn’t that many. He doesn’t do anything. He gets handled one on one most of the time. I feel like you people are on drugs. The Seahawks spent the 16th pick in the draft on basically a 3-4 nose tackle.

[@pavel.novikov146]

no one wants ur opinion lmao, his film has way better view of the fields than you had out in the nosebleeds. i’m sure his opinion matters much more

[@eriksports]

Ok troll. Its wild how wrong you are. Go look at how the Hawks D played when he was hurt. Also, Murphy played 54% of snaps in the cards game, very normal for a rookie DT on a team with a deep d-line rotation.

[@Colbaltshimshim]

Stay with figure skating. That is your sport expertise.

[@NarutoOnlineGermany]

People tought he qould be a beast but he is average at best actually. Not worth the pick

[@2jYeti]

When you don't understand football so you comment some tinfoil hat shit.

[@mikebara3437]

5th round talent. 3-4 nose tackle and nothing else.

[@neapoi]

You clearly understand the dynamics of a team game.

[@pandaemoniumbad]

Sack numbers have always been an over inflated stat for DL. Impact is what you ideally need from your interior, and he's doing that. He's a rookie so the sack numbers will come. When we get better at the edge, he's going to FEAST.
