The Seahawks won their first game of the season on Sunday, defeating the Dallas Cowboys 24-13 in their home opener at CenturyLink Field. But after talking to the head coach Monday on The Pete Carroll Show on 710 ESPN Seattle, it was what Carroll said about Earl Thomas that stood out the most to Brock Huard and Mike Salk.

In the attached video, Brock and Salk break down what they took away from their 20-plus minutes talking to Carroll, with the main point being that he never seems to over-complicate things – especially when it comes to players who are tough to deal with like Thomas has been since the end of last season.
