On today’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by by Mike Garafolo, NFL Network and Michael-Shawn Dugar, The Athletic.  They cover all things NFL, Bill Belichick, Geno Smith, and Seahawks vs. Packers.

Puck opens up the show depressed with how the Seattle Mariners are handling their offseason. It’s depressing to hear that the one big move they want to come away with soon is Carlos Santana.  Will Luis Castillo be on the move and where do they find a second baseman and third baseman?

Bill Belichick joins college football.  Will it work? What are our thoughts on his son being named the coach in waiting?

Mike Garafolo, NFL Network joins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his weekly chat about the NFL.  The biggest topic of the week is Bill Belichick heading to the University of North Carolina.  What led to his decision and why is he not coaching in the NFL?

Does Mike think his style will work in college football?  Is he finished with the NFL?  How does he handle NIL and the portal?

Ken Walker is banged up with a calf injury and Mike has an update on his status.  The weekend has a great slate of games, including the Seahawks vs. the Packers, who does Mike like?

Michael-Shawn Dugar, The Athletic, stops by and visits with Jason “Puck” Puckett for his weekly visit talking Seahawks.  

Are the offensive woes figured out for Seattle or was it just a one game sample?  The offensive line is showing more continuity.  Geno Smith’s steady performance and does it change our opinion on how we view him moving forward?  Will Ken Walker play Sunday against the Packers?  Dugar gushes over the defensive scheme from Mike Macdonald.  

Lastly, “Hey, What the Puck?!”  Does Puck have a problem with Bill Belickick making his son, Steve, the coach in waiting at UNC?
