Did the Seattle Sounders undo all their recent progress with Saturday's disappointing 1-1 draw against CF Montréal? After building momentum with an extended unbeaten run and four straight victories, Seattle delivered an alarming first-half performance against Montréal before recovering to salvage a point. Was it just an off night, or did the match expose some of the same problems that plagued the Sounders during their summer slump? On this week's episode, we break down the near-debacle against Montréal, question Brian Schmetzer's lineup decisions and debate whether Sebastián Gómez has earned a spot in the starting XI. Plus, we dive into the growing debate around Craig Waibel and the Sounders' upcoming general manager vote, and look ahead to Seattle's matchup with San Diego FC.
