The Seahawks fell short in Week 1 against the 49ers, 17-13.

Chris and Mike also react to listener voicemails and questions about the non-JSN wideouts, why Seattle’s offense had no juice, getting Tory Horton and the TEs involved, why San Francisco had a coaching advantage, whether to be pessimistic or optimistic after the opener and more!
