(I’m hosting Saturday Night Live and introducing musical guest Nick Bellore)

Ladies and gentleman, Nick Bellore:

If you didn’t catch it the first time, keep your eyes on Nick Bellore. He’s directly to the right of longsnapper Chris Stoll, so basically in the right guard position. Bellore hustles through three blocks and eventually lands on the Hulk Hogan side of a bodyslam on top of Carolina’s return man. I could look up his name but won’t out of respect for what Bellore did to him.

At the start of the play he was #11. By the end, he was #1 because Bellore folded him like the backpage of a Mad magazine.

Nick Bellore carries a $2.6 million cap hit this season to essentially do that one thing, a point of consternation for some fans, but getting to pick up on plays like this is what makes it all worth it. And why I’m glad I’ve started to re-watch every game in All-22 for this new Seaside Joe weekly segment.

That was the first of ten takeaways I had from my All-22 footage review of the Seahawks win over the Panthers last week. Here are the other nine, including thoughts on Devon Witherspoon’s unique value, Seattle’s funky usage of tight ends, the debate of Ken Walker as a top-five back, the team’s biggest problem right now, DK Metcalf’s maturation as a number one, and the good&bad of Geno Smith.
