A lot of 28 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 5: grand kids. So we only have two that were in 29 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 5: Cincinnati for Christmas. Now they're down south, they're in Florida, 30 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 5: and my other two up in Wisconsin. So it was 31 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 5: relatively quiet Christmas, but a lot of fun still. 32 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 2: All right, Well, we're looking forward to having a fun 33 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: day on Sunday, Yeah, we hope. As the Bengals host 34 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 2: the Arizona Cardinals two games left in the season. Unfortunately, 35 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 2: know that they are not headed to the postseason this year, 36 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 2: but they would like to end the year with a 37 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: three game winning streak and more specifically, reward the fans 38 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 2: that have been coming out this year and win those 39 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 2: last two home games against a couple of teams of 40 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 2: lousy records, the three and twelve Cardinals and the three 41 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 2: and twelve Cleveland. 42 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 5: It's amazing six and twenty four combined record of last 43 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 5: two opponents Cincinnati Bengals have in the twenty twenty five season. 44 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 5: I agree with you, Dan, it's time to reward the 45 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 5: Bengal fans for coming out. They supported this football team 46 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 5: all year long. It had its ups and downs, more 47 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 5: downs than ups. Let's face it, you know, there were 48 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 5: more tough times to deal with Tuck then good times 49 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 5: to celebrate, and the fans still made it, still showed up. 50 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 5: Bengal fans are unique, you know, they're special. They love 51 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 5: their football team, they love their organization, and it would 52 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 5: be nice to win these last two games, so that'd 53 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 5: be three wins in a row to build on twenty 54 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 5: twenty six. Go into the off season on an up 55 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 5: note and uptick and get ready for the twenty twenty 56 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 5: sixth season with a little bit of a foundation under you. 57 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 2: Well, Bengals are coming up their most dominant performance of 58 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 2: the season last week on the road in Miami. Forty 59 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: five to twenty one was the final score. The offense 60 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: was great, the defense played extremely well, and the special 61 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 2: teams was on point as well. Let's specifically talk about 62 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 2: the offense one week before shutout at home by Baltimore. 63 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 2: The next week, forty five points on the road against Miami, 64 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 2: and they really took their foot off the gas pedal 65 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 2: with about eleven and a half minutes to go in 66 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 2: that game. Once the outcome was basically determined that's the 67 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 2: most points they've ever scored with Joe Burrow at quarterback. 68 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 2: They've had quite a few games with forty or more, 69 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 2: but they had never scored forty five in a game. 70 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: Here is offensive coordinator Dan Pitcher when asked, did the 71 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 2: offense take that shutout personally? The week before against Baltimore? 72 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 7: It's a collection of really prideful people, hyper competitive, and 73 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 7: when you lose, it always pisses you off. And then 74 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 7: when it happened the way it happened the week prior, Yeah, 75 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 7: I mean there's probably a little something extra there. There's 76 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 7: always something. You know, you always have fuel in this 77 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 7: league because you have to. You have to have it 78 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 7: every week or you're getting you're gonna get your buck kicked. 79 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 3: But yeah, maybe helped a little bit. 80 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 2: Lap you played pro football for twelve years. What was 81 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 2: it like the week after you guys stunk up the joint? 82 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 5: Like coach says, competitive people, uber competitive, and you know, 83 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 5: your personal pride takes a hit when you get when 84 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 5: you play like that offensively, when you the unit you're 85 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 5: responsible for scoring points gets squad dosh, goose, egg nada, 86 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 5: I mean, it's like there's nothing, there's no worse feeling 87 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 5: than that, and you basically you can't wait to make 88 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 5: a restitution. You know, you have a chance to the 89 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 5: very That's the great thing about the NFL. If you 90 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 5: lay an egg a one week, you can come back 91 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 5: and play very well the following week and kind of 92 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 5: make restitution for it a little bit. And BEng has 93 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 5: laid a big egg. Man that shoutout was tough to tolerate, 94 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 5: tough to watch, but man to come back the next 95 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 5: week and put forty five points on the board shows 96 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 5: that they've got resiliency. You know, they've got some resolve 97 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 5: to them a little bit. They're not gonna They're not 98 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 5: gonna stay down. And I think I think that's the 99 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 5: thing that I'll remember most about this edition, the twenty 100 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 5: twenty five edition of the Cincinnati Bengals, is they didn't quit. 101 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 5: Did they play well? No, far from it. I mean 102 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 5: they weren't consistent enough. You have to you have to 103 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 5: be far more consistent than they were on a game 104 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 5: by game, snap by snap basis. There's no doubt about it. 105 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 5: But when things weren't going well, they didn't, you know, 106 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 5: look at each other, get after each other, point fingers 107 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 5: at each other and all that sort of thing and 108 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 5: lay down for the opponent. They fought and they had 109 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 5: personal pride and they bounced back. So I think that's 110 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 5: something they can build on as well. 111 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 2: You referenced the desire to end with a three game 112 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: winning streak and how that gives you a little more 113 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 2: momentum heading into the next season. It would give the 114 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 2: Bengals a seven and ten record at the end of 115 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 2: the year. That's unfortunately the best they can do, right, 116 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 2: But I asked Zach Taylor earlier today, all right, is 117 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: there really such a thing as momentum at the end 118 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 2: of a season like this or is it just a cliche. 119 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 2: Here's what Zach had to say. 120 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 3: It makes you feel better, you know. 121 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 8: I don't know if that momentum carries over. I think 122 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 8: that's hard to say because you have a new team 123 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 8: every year, but you put in a lot of work 124 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 8: into this thing, and it's important to finish with a 125 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 8: good feeling. 126 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 4: You know. 127 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 8: Obviously the feeling's not going to be overall good, but 128 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 8: just feel good to be in a locker roofer game 129 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 8: with the hard week's work and be able to reap 130 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 8: the benefits of that. 131 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 2: So I get that. I mean, it's really hard to 132 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: say how much momentum they'll have, knowing there will be 133 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 2: changes on the roster, particularly on the defensive side of 134 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 2: the ball in all likelihood, but as hard as you 135 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 2: work in this sport, as much as you put your 136 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 2: body on the line, to end with a three game 137 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: winning streak does make you feel a ton better going 138 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 2: into the offseason. 139 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,919 Speaker 5: I agree. I agree that you know your point you're making. 140 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 5: Zach said the same thing. You know you take a pounding. 141 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 5: I remember as a player at this at this point 142 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 5: of the season, you're beating up, even if you're not 143 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 5: injured as such, You're sore, you're tired, you're beating up 144 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 5: a little bit. So, uh sometimes it's tough to uh 145 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 5: muster the energy to have a good practice and go 146 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 5: out there and plays as best as you possibly can 147 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 5: in a football game. So again, I admire the fact 148 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 5: that these guys they have an affinity for each other, 149 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 5: They care about each other, They want to win football 150 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 5: games for each other. It's all for one, one for 151 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 5: all kinds of things. And to take that to the 152 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 5: offensive line, I can remember, you know what it's like 153 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 5: when we had terrible seasons but started to play well. 154 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 5: And you know, offensive lines like making a fist, you 155 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 5: curl the four fingers and you wrap the thumb and 156 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 5: it's involuntary. You don't think about it. When you start 157 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 5: playing well as an offensive line, that's what you do. 158 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 5: Everything just falls into place. I mean, it's almost like magic. 159 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 5: And you wonder why it took so long and where 160 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 5: was it when you were struggling as a football team. 161 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 5: But that's the beauty of football and it can come 162 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 5: and it can go, and when you have it, you 163 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 5: most definitely don't want to lose it. 164 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 2: So one of the big things that was emphasized going 165 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 2: into this season was the importance of getting off to 166 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 2: a fast start. Right the Bengals did. They started the 167 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 2: season two and oh so did the Cardinals. The Bengals 168 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 2: are five and ten after a two and o start. 169 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 2: The Cardinals are three and twelve after a two and 170 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: o start. What do these two teams have in common, Well, 171 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 2: both of both of them lost their starting quarterback early 172 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 2: in the year. Joe Burrow got hurt in Week two. 173 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 2: He was obviously out for a long time. Kyler Murray, 174 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: who is the number one overall pick in the draft 175 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 2: one year before Joe Burrow is the number one overall 176 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 2: pick in the draft, got hurt in Week five and 177 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 2: his case season ending. So no big mystery. You lose 178 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 2: a guy with that kind of importance to your team, 179 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 2: it's probably not going to go well. 180 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 5: Absolutely. I mean, the most important player in sports, not 181 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,199 Speaker 5: just football, not just pro football, is the quarterback. 182 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 3: You know, the. 183 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 5: Quarterback is probably the highest paid position group in sports, 184 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 5: and individual quarterbacks of the highest paid players in sports. 185 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 5: So when you lose your guy, it's it's very, very difficult, 186 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:44,839 Speaker 5: and you don't change your offense necessarily, but you do 187 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 5: different things within the scope of that offense. I mean, 188 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 5: it's like if the quarterback that was replacing a starter, 189 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 5: a star starter like a Joe Burrow, was equal to 190 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 5: Joe Burrow physically, he probably you probably get some reps, 191 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 5: you get some playing time, keep from sharp. It's not 192 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 5: the case. That's rarely the case in the National Football 193 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 5: started started for a reason. So but how about that 194 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 5: the Bengals are five and ten, Arizona's three and twelve, 195 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 5: five and twenty two, five and twenty two. That right there, alone, 196 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 5: in my mind, you know, is a great example. I mean, 197 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 5: it's just it puts a stamp on the importance of 198 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 5: quarterback playing the National Football League. 199 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 2: You're listening to the Bengals pep Rally Show. We are 200 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 2: live today at the on the Rhine Eatery, the food 201 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 2: hall on the second floor above the downtown Kroger at 202 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 2: the intersection of Court and Walnut.

You know, I think he's he's 210 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:04,839 Speaker 5: going to be around for a while. I think he's 211 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 5: going to have a very very good professional career. Could 212 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 5: be like a double digit, you know, professional career, ten 213 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 5: or twelve year professional career. You never know about injuries 214 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 5: and god forbid, you know, knock on wood barring injury. 215 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 5: He's got what it takes. I mean, he's got what 216 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 5: you need to be able to perform at a high 217 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,839 Speaker 5: level in the National Football League. There's there's no question 218 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 5: about it. And he wants to be good, and he's coachable, 219 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,559 Speaker 5: and he listens to the coach and he applies to 220 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 5: fundamentals and techniques that they want him to do. He 221 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 5: played at Georgia, played well at Georgia, excelled at Georgia. 222 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 5: He was an All American at Georgia. So this guy's 223 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 5: the real deal, all right. 224 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 2: We're going to take a time out.

To do that, we welcome in Theo Macki, 240 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 2: who covers the Cardinals for the Arizona Republic THEOA. We 241 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 2: appreciate you joining us on the show. When you saw 242 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 2: Arizona at Cincinnati in late December, you probably figured you 243 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 2: were going to freeze when you came here this weekend. 244 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 2: We are going to give you a sixty degree day 245 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 2: on Sunday. Are you prepared? 246 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:02,079 Speaker 9: Yeah? 247 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 2: I was. I was not expecting a sixty degree day. 248 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 9: I was checking the weather this week and I was like, 249 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 9: looky coat, do I need to bring my Parker or 250 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 9: my normal winter coat? 251 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 2: And it was like, no, you don't really. 252 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 9: Need a coat at all. So that's not what I 253 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:15,079 Speaker 9: was expecting. 254 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 5: Hey, really, I mean this is this is not normal. 255 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 5: It's not typical. It's not the temperature that you have 256 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 5: this time of year normally here in Cincinnati. So we're 257 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 5: all very thankful. We're all very grateful. The Arizona Cardinals. 258 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 9: I think the Cardinals are grateful for it. 259 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 3: Too. 260 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 5: I bet, I bet they are. The Cardinals are finishing 261 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 5: a tough season, to say the least, a three and 262 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 5: twelve record. The Bengals aren't much better at five and ten. 263 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 5: But what do you think is the biggest reason that 264 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 5: the Arizona Cardinals fell to a three and twelve record 265 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 5: this season? 266 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 2: I mean, it's the number one thing. 267 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 9: Is a familiar answer for so many teams that have 268 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 9: this level of a disappointing season, like you look at the. 269 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 2: Lions being eliminated today. 270 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 9: Well, health is a huge reason, and. 271 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 3: That's certainly the case in Arizona. 272 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 9: They've got more games missed than any other team in 273 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 9: the league this year due to injury, but also underperformance 274 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 9: into trenches has been a huge reason. They've spent a 275 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 9: lot of resources for agency in the draft of their 276 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 9: defensive line, which is the least is on their offensive line, 277 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 9: which is frankly quite bad. And when you're not good 278 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 9: in the trenches, you're not healthy, and you don't have 279 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 9: a stability at quarterbacks, you're probably not going to be 280 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 9: a very good team. So kind of starts with those areas. 281 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 2: Theo Mackie from the Arizona Republic is our guest I'll 282 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 2: be honest, I really haven't watched a lot of the 283 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 2: Cardinals during the course of this season. When I so so, 284 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 2: when I excuse me, started doing some homework earlier this week, 285 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 2: I was surprised to see that the offense has actually 286 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 2: been better, at least statistically, after Kyle Murray went down 287 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 2: and Jacoby Brissett took over as the starting quarterback. Is 288 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 2: that accurate or is that just sometimes the numbers can 289 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 2: be deceiving. I would say it's. 290 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 9: Been honestly about the same when when Jacoby first took over, 291 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 9: there was definitely an improvement, and I think Key Moore 292 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 9: so fits the way that they want to play like this. 293 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 9: These are guys that came from their offensive coordinator, came 294 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 9: from a seven Kevin Stefanski system in Cleveland. 295 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 2: Wants to be. 296 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 9: Under center, wants to rely on the play action game, 297 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 9: and that doesn't work when your quarterback is five but ten. 298 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 9: So it fit better when. 299 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 2: Jacoby stepped in. 300 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 9: But a lot of the production recently these past few 301 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 9: weeks has come. You know, in garbage time, they're down 302 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 9: by twenty five points in the second half and they're 303 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 9: putting up pick numbers. 304 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 2: It's like, all right, what does that really mean. 305 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 9: And how much of it can be attributed to that 306 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 9: and how much of it can just be all right, 307 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 9: we're down big and teams that playing three event defense, 308 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 9: and it's easier to move the ball now, which which 309 00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 9: I think is a large part of it. So the 310 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 9: offense looks different. I don't know that it necessarily looks better. 311 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 9: Maybe a little bit more more cohesive. 312 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 6: Down down, but less explosive. 313 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 2: If that makes sense. 314 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, that does, It makes makes total sense. I would 315 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 5: think that the the common denominator for both of the 316 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 5: quarterbacks probably was lack of a consistent running game. Not 317 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 5: that the Cardinals didn't run the ball well at times. 318 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 5: They had games where they ran the ball very well, 319 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 5: extremely efficient running the football, but the consistency of doing 320 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 5: it on a game by game basis is probably you know, 321 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 5: the biggest reason for the record three and twelve? Is 322 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 5: that accurate? Or is that way off base one? 323 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 9: And that's kind of what I was talking about earlier 324 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 9: with the trenches. It's very hard, obviously with the running game, 325 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 9: to separate the running backs from the the offensive line 326 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 9: performance and the running backs. 327 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 2: It's certainly benefactor because James. 328 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 9: Connor went down with the season ending injury and three 329 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 9: trade ns and went down with the season ending injury 330 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 9: the week after that. Like, they're starting running backs for 331 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 9: most of the season have been basically the squad guys, 332 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 9: so that's certainly part of it. I think if you 333 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 9: look at the advanced numbers, they're like last, and I 334 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 9: think the NFL does now like rush yards over expected, 335 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 9: which is based on how your offensive line blocks for you. 336 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,199 Speaker 9: I think their running backs are last or bottom five slightly, 337 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 9: so that's part of it. They're not getting pushed though 338 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 9: with their offensive line either. And last year, like the 339 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 9: Cardinals offense exceeded expectations and it was totally because of 340 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 9: the run game. 341 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 5: They were second in yards per carry. 342 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 2: Huh, and everything was kind of built off of that. 343 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 2: We're chatting with Theo mackiew who covers the Cardinals for 344 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 2: the Arizona Republic. The Cardinals have recently added a running 345 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 2: back that we love here in Cincinnati. Corey Kiner, local 346 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 2: high school legend to Roger Bacon High School, had a 347 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 2: great career at the University of Cincinnati, with back to 348 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 2: back one thousand yard seasons each of the last two years. 349 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 2: I saw he got a decent number of carries last week. 350 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 2: Would you anticipate that we will see a reasonable number 351 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 2: of rushes for Corey Kiner on Sunday. 352 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, honestly, I. 353 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 9: Did not know that he was he was a Cincinnati guy. 354 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 9: That that's very cool that he's going to have that 355 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 9: opportunity to play in front of family and friends. I'm sure, 356 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 9: But yeah, I would expect, you know, maybe a driver 357 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 9: to spelling Michael Carter who should be the lead guy. 358 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 6: So I think he had six carries last week. 359 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 9: I think that's probably a reasonable number to expect. Again, 360 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 9: if he's in there for a driver too, obviously, you 361 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 9: know when that's your role. It depends if both those 362 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 9: drives are throwing out. He might only see one or 363 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 9: two carries, but should be kind of that change of 364 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:28,440 Speaker 9: pace guy. 365 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 5: The Bengals historically and franchise history, have had difficulty with 366 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 5: good tight ends, you know, controlling and corraling tight ends 367 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 5: that perform at a high level. Trey McBride is having 368 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 5: a phenomenal season. I mean, his his numbers are staggering. 369 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 5: He's putting up big, big numbers. But no matter who 370 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 5: the quarterback is, it seems like, you know, they're all 371 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 5: looking for him. And rightfully so he's earned and deserved that. 372 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 5: What about Trey McBride, what is it about his game 373 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:57,360 Speaker 5: that makes him special? 374 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 6: He is there's. 375 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 9: A lot of things that could go for about ten 376 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 9: minutes here. He's he's incredibly athletic, obviously, like when he 377 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 9: gets the ball in space, it just seems like it 378 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 9: tasts like four guys to bring him down, Like he 379 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 9: just kind of is like a bowling ball in the. 380 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 2: Way that he runs once he gets ahead of team, 381 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 2: where guys. 382 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 5: Are just bouncing off him. 383 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 9: But it's feel for space, like if you're playing zone 384 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 9: defense against him and and he sees a little pocket 385 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 9: of space, he just has a great sense of where 386 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 9: to find the space and the defense how to create 387 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 9: that little bit of separation for the quarterback to find 388 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 9: him in. And you know, I thought it was, oh, 389 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 9: he and Kyler have a great rapport and that they're 390 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 9: clearly have some sort of telepathic communication. 391 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 6: What's when the exact same six percent took. 392 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 9: Over, So you know you you then attribute it more 393 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 9: to Okay, this is. 394 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 5: Just a special, special. 395 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 9: Special player, right He's doing it with multiple quarterbacks. 396 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 6: He's fantastic and as. 397 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 9: You mentioned, Bengals being the worst team in the league 398 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 9: against tight ends, and you know I haven't checked with 399 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 9: it with the VAGA numbers, saying I'm not a betting man, 400 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,120 Speaker 9: but I would have a hard time imagining that they're 401 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 9: setting an over under high enough for his. 402 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 2: Right right. A couple more questions for Theo mackew, who 403 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 2: covers the Cardinals for the Arizona Republic. Walter Nolan was 404 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 2: frequently mocked drafted to the Bengals this past offseason. The 405 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 2: Cardinals took them one pick before Cincinnati, and now he's out. 406 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 2: He suffered a season ending injury last week see the 407 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 2: Josh Sweat. The team leader in Sax hasn't been practicing 408 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 2: so far this week. You alluded earlier to the sheer 409 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 2: number of players that the Cardinals have uninjured reserve, more 410 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 2: than any other team. How battered and bruised is the 411 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 2: team that we will see coming to Cincinnati on Sunday. 412 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 9: Incredibly so on offense, they're they're down to three week 413 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 9: one starters center Yelda frohol McBride and Michael Wilson, oh 414 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 9: and Marvin Harrison. 415 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 6: Ginia that he's limited with a. 416 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 9: Heel injury, only played half the staffs last week on defense, 417 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 9: like a among their like true difference maker type. You 418 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 9: know that there's some like fringe starters who are healthy, 419 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 9: but among like true starters, it's like cornerback Will Johnson, 420 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 9: their second round pick, safety Jalen Thompson might go Kalaias 421 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 9: Kibole defensive tackle is healthy and plays about half to 422 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 9: snaps at his age at age thirty nine. 423 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 2: And that's like it, Like you know, they have at least. 424 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 9: Ten like crucial starters currently sideline. It's just you know, 425 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 9: their injuries for a lot of the season, we're limited 426 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 9: to offense, and now it's just kind of a blood 427 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 9: bath for the whole team. It's really a second string 428 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 9: lineup that they've had out there these last week or two. 429 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 5: What about the defense, let's uh talk about them. I 430 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 5: know we gotta we gotta run and we do appreciate 431 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 5: the time that you've given us with You're phenomenal. You 432 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 5: know the Arizona Cardinals. Inside out this defensive football team, offensive, 433 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 5: defensive line, linebacker, there's safeties and corners, all three phases. 434 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 5: How well have they played? Has one unit played exceedingly 435 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 5: better than another? Have they all been average mediocre? Has 436 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,120 Speaker 5: one been poor? And a couple better, have two been 437 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 5: poor and one better? How's it worked out this year? 438 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 9: I would say they've all been pretty bad, Yeah, to 439 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 9: various degrees. I mean, in their seven game losing streak 440 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 9: right now, they've allowed forty points in four of those games. 441 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 6: You know, when you have a defensive head coach and 442 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 6: a defensive coordinator who many consider to be, you know, 443 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 6: an up and coming head coach candidate coming into this season, 444 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,719 Speaker 6: it's just been wildly disappointing. 445 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 9: You can, as I said, when they were healthier, the defensive. 446 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 2: Line has been really bad. 447 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 9: Outside of Walton All and who has been mentioned is 448 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,640 Speaker 9: now Auklays Campbell's been solid. Everyone else that has been 449 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 9: really quite exploitable. And then that linebacker Mac Wilson Senior 450 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 9: was a starting linebacker. 451 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 6: He's pretty good. 452 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 9: He's now on IRS was the last six games, and 453 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 9: the guys who have stepped in for him have really 454 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 9: been a weak spot. A Keen Davis Skaters came over 455 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:04,919 Speaker 9: from Cincinnati. 456 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 6: As we know, he has not you know, he's. 457 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 9: Been forced to step into this role that he did 458 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 9: play in Cincinnati where he's playing every snap and just 459 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 9: does not look up the steed. They've got a rookie 460 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 9: fourths round pick Cody Simon from Ohio State. He's still 461 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 9: kind of getting his feet under him, has had some 462 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 9: good moments, but not quite ready for this role either. 463 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 9: So you're just looking at a lot of guys who 464 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 9: aren't really ready for this role. And there on the 465 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 9: co sensive line, it's it's guys who are highly drafted. 466 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 9: Garius Robinson was a first round pick last year and 467 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 9: has really struggled. So those two groups, the whole front 468 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 9: seven right now on this fairly weak outside of Josh Sweat, 469 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 9: who is eleven zacks this season but but might not 470 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 9: play this week, so it's it's a pretty weak Goog overall. 471 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 9: The secondary is a little bit better, but it's been 472 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 9: a little inconsistent as well. 473 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 2: THEO, we know you have playing to catch this afternoon. 474 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 2: Travel safe to Cincinnati, and thanks again for your time 475 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 2: this afternoon.

Jalen has spent most 500 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 2: of this season on the practice squad. Then when Cam 501 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 2: Taylor Britt suffered his injury. Jalen got promoted to the 502 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 2: regular roster. In recent weeks, He's been starting as the 503 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 2: slot corner and Lappie looks a lot like Mike Hilton 504 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 2: used to look. He's undersized, but he's making plays. He's 505 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 2: a sure tackler, had a tremendous interception last week. Have 506 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 2: the Bengals found something in Jalen Davis. 507 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 5: Man, I'll tell you Dan, if they've found another Mike Hilton, 508 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 5: they've unearthed a diamond. 509 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 3: Man.

He understands the game at such a high level, 512 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 5: and the coaches it. He's always where he's supposed to 513 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 5: be when he's supposed to be there, doing what he's 514 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 5: supposed to do. His teammates love him because they can 515 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,479 Speaker 5: trust him. They also respect the heck out of him 516 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,479 Speaker 5: because he has not had an easy path to get 517 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 5: where he's gotten in the National Football League. He's had 518 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 5: to work hard. He's earned everything. Nothing's been given to him, 519 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 5: nothing on a silver platter. Here you go, Jalen, you 520 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 5: know this is this is what we're talking about. I 521 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 5: respect the heck out of him as well. I mean, 522 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 5: a guy who has sacrificed what he's sacrificed to get 523 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 5: to where he is. I'll tell your heart, he's a 524 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 5: great example of the old saying Mike Paul Brown used 525 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,360 Speaker 5: to say all the time, gentlemen, hard work pays off 526 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 5: if you continue to work, if you continue to grind, 527 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 5: if you continue to do everything we're asking you to do, 528 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 5: and you know, you're going to have to trust us 529 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 5: that the coaches know what we're talking about. And if 530 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 5: we can get that kind of relationship going, you're going 531 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 5: to be a great player, and we're going to advance 532 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 5: your opportunity and you're going to make a lot of 533 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 5: money for you and your family in this game, and 534 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 5: you'll be around for a long time. I think Jalen 535 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 5: Davis has headed that way. 536 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 2: He joined the Bengals in Zach Taylor's first year as 537 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 2: head coach, so he's been here for a while. He 538 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 2: was on the Super Bowl team he got into the 539 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 2: Super Bowl, but when Mike Hilton was on the team, 540 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 2: he was always kind of Mike's back up. As long 541 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 2: as Mike was healthy, Jalen was not getting a ton 542 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 2: of snaps on defense. But he's getting them now. The 543 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,959 Speaker 2: defense has looked better as a result. Let's hear from 544 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 2: head coach Zach Taylor on Jalen Davis. 545 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 8: You know when he walks into building, what you're gonna 546 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 8: get from JD? You're gonna get tremendous energy, good vibes. Guy, 547 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 8: great since, a humor, person that everybody likes betting around. 548 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 8: He's gonna work. He's got a knack for making plays, 549 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 8: great communicator, really high football Q. You know, so just 550 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 8: all the things you would you draw up a player. 551 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 8: And I'm sure it's frustrating for him. You know, I've 552 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,159 Speaker 8: had a lot of training camp, final cut days. You 553 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 8: know where AJD? Here we are again, you know, and 554 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 8: we know we can count on you on the practice 555 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 8: squad and if there's no ovation, we know we can 556 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 8: get you out here and do it. And so for 557 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:05,959 Speaker 8: him just to make the most of the opportunity, You're 558 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 8: you're just you're really happy for him to get that 559 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 8: opportunity because he deserves it. He's worked hard for it. 560 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 8: Just a great human, great player, one of those glue 561 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 8: guys in the locker room that you got to have 562 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 8: because he just he makes everybody around you happier better, 563 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 8: just really really happy for him. 564 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 2: The knock on Jaillen Davis has always been the lack 565 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 2: of size. He's five ten one eighty six. You wish 566 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 2: he was a few inches taller and a few pounds heavier. Yeah, 567 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 2: that's not going to happen. But not only is he 568 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 2: playing well, but since this move took place, it's kicked 569 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 2: dax Hill from the slot to an outside corner position. 570 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 2: I really think that's where he needs to stay. I 571 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 2: think they've identified where he can have the biggest impact. 572 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 2: Stop moving him around, keep him there. I'm with you, coach. 573 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 2: I mean, Daxville is a potential shock outside corner. I 574 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 2: really believe that he's got that the athletic ability to 575 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 2: do that. He's got the size, he's got the length, 576 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 2: he's got to change of direction ability, he's got the 577 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 2: straight line speed. I mean, he projects as a potential 578 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 2: Pro Bowl, if not Pro Bowl, high level player at 579 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 2: the cornerback position for a long time. 580 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 5: So having Jalen Davis being able to play in the 581 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 5: slot like he has has improved two spots. 582 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 3: You know. 583 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 5: And Al Goldin's defense in the back end, and I'm 584 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 5: sure Al Golden's thrilled about it. I mean, he's got 585 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 5: to be excited and happy about what has transpired. So, uh, 586 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 5: you can never have enough defensive backs, That's that's for sure. 587 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 3: One. 588 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 5: That's one thing Paul Brown always said to you know, 589 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 5: defensive backs, that's a that's a skilled position where you 590 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 5: can never have enough for him. You know, you're down 591 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 5: one in a game, you're down too in a game, 592 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 5: and now you're struggling, you're in trouble. So I do 593 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 5: think Jalen Davis is a guy that can provide versatility. 594 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 5: He can play outside and the pinch. It's not like 595 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 5: he's terrible outside, but he's a really good slot corner. 596 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 5: Dax Hill can play inside and outside. So now al 597 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 5: Golden has multiple guys that he can play, you know, 598 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 5: chess with in his chess game, and he can check 599 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 5: me people because they don't know what where they're going 600 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 5: to line up, how they're going to line up, how 601 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 5: many defensive backs, how many linebackers, how many defensive linemen 602 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 5: they're going to have on the field. And versatility is 603 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 5: the name of the game. If you've got versatility and 604 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 5: diversity in your skill set, you're going to be around 605 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 5: a long time. 606 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 2: Coming up next. Joe Burrow spoke to reporters on Wednesday 607 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 2: this week and he had something to say about the 608 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 2: Arizona Cardinals that made me say WHOA. Well, hear what 609 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 2: Joe said, and I'll explain why I had that reaction 610 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 2: when we come back.

There's a full service bar as well. 623 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 2: Plenty of seating available and again our special guests coming 624 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 2: up from five to six will be Bengals starting left guard. 625 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 2: Third round draft pick, who's having an excellent rookie year 626 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 2: Dylan Fairchild. 627 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 5: Dan, I agree with you. I think he is having 628 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 5: an excellent rookie year. I mean, I remember by rookie 629 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 5: year as an offensive lineman in the NFL, it can 630 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 5: be just so much to deal with. It's like, you know, 631 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 5: where do I begin. It's like you can be easily overwhelmed, 632 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 5: even if you played at a high level getting playing 633 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 5: in the in the National Football League, at the professional level, 634 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 5: the highest level of football, there's so much to learn offensively, 635 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 5: so many different techniques, so many different fundamentals than you 636 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 5: maybe learning and executed and played in college dealing. Fairchild's 637 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 5: fortunate and that he played in the SEC, and he 638 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 5: played at Georgia, one of the best conferences in college football, 639 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 5: one of the best football teams in that conference, so 640 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 5: he was exposed to football at a very high level, 641 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 5: you know, in the collegiate game. So his transition to 642 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 5: the National Football League might be a little bit smooth 643 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 5: or a little bit easier than some other guys. And 644 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 5: he's playing well. I mean, when he got inserted into 645 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 5: the lineup, you could tell that he's a guy that 646 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 5: could have an impact on the performance on an offensive 647 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 5: line for sure. 648 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 2: Tling Fairchild and his offensive teammates will be facing at 649 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 2: Arizona d that's been struggling of late. The Cardinals come 650 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 2: in with a seven game losing streak. During the seven 651 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 2: game losing streak, here are the point totals that the 652 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 2: other team has put up on the board. Forty four, 653 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 2: forty one, twenty seven, twenty forty five, forty and twenty six. 654 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 2: That's an average of thirty four point seven points allowed 655 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 2: per game during the seven game losing streak. Earlier this week, 656 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow is asked to describe the Arizona Cardinals defensive approach. 657 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't do. 658 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 11: The traditional coverages that you typically see they do, but 659 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 11: they get to them from different ways. They're going to 660 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 11: play a kind of umbrella look from the secondary and 661 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 11: roll and drop into a bunch of different coverages. What 662 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 11: kind of reminds me of how Clemson kind of played 663 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 11: us in the National Championship. So it'll present a unique 664 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 11: challenge for sure. 665 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 2: All Right. When I heard Joe Burrow say that a 666 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 2: couple of days ago, here's why I said, WHOA. He 667 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 2: compared the Arizona defense to the Clemson defense that he 668 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 2: saw in the National Championship game with the twenty nineteen 669 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 2: undefeated LSU team. Here's how Joe Burrow did against that 670 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 2: defensive structure in the National Championship game. Four hundred and 671 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 2: sixty three yards pass a, five touchdown passes, one touchdown run. 672 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase had nine catches for two hundred twenty eight 673 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,479 Speaker 2: yards in the game. LSU had six hundred and twenty 674 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 2: eight yards of offense. So when Joe describes an opponent's 675 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 2: defense as one that looks a lot like the Clemson 676 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 2: defense that he faced in that National Championship game, I 677 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,800 Speaker 2: don't necessarily take it as a compliment. 678 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, very and now I understand what your your 679 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 5: woes like. And they lit him up. I mean, Joe 680 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 5: Burrow took him apart, picked him apart. Clemson had very 681 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 5: very strong skill position players in that National Championship game. 682 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 5: Joe Burrow, the strongest and the most skilled at the 683 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 5: quarterback position, won the Heisman Trophy Best Player in College Football. 684 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 5: He was throwing to Jamar Chase. They played with each 685 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 5: other four years at LSU, and they lit it up. 686 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 5: Had tremendous football game against the Clemson Tigers. So if 687 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 5: the Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase can be the primary 688 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 5: one to two punch of an offensive football team that 689 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:30,760 Speaker 5: performs at a high level against Arizona, and they performed 690 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 5: like they did in the National Championship Game for Clemson 691 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 5: and the teammates, their teammates support their efforts with strong 692 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 5: performances of their own, could be a very very good 693 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 5: day in Arizona and a nice playing ride home. 694 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:51,359 Speaker 2: Cardinals have given up forty plus in four of their 695 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 2: last seven. While it feels to me like the Bengals 696 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 2: offense is going to have a bad day now. Sometimes 697 00:35:58,120 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 2: you have that feeling all week and it plays out 698 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 2: differently from what you expect. But man, my gut tells 699 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 2: me that Burrow and company are going to thrive on Sunday. 700 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 5: I agree. I definitely think they're they're gonna thrive. I 701 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 5: think they'll they'll thrive at a at a very high level. 702 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 5: I would be surprised, not surprised, but I mean I 703 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 5: think they're more than capable obviously of putting forty or 704 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,399 Speaker 5: more on the board themselves. They just scored forty five 705 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 5: last week. Wouldn't it be great to put forty eight 706 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 5: on the board, you know against the Earth team, fifty 707 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 5: fifty hit five. Oh, let's hit the fitty. 708 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:31,760 Speaker 3: Oh why e five? Oh, let's do a little. 709 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 5: Fitty I love it. Uh, that would be great. 710 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:35,839 Speaker 3: How about that? Though? 711 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 5: If they do score fifty ninety five points scored in 712 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 5: two weeks, that's that's mind boggling. That's incomprehensible. That's not 713 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 5: the norm in the NFL, that's for sure. 714 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 2: All Right, we're gonna take a time out. When we 715 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 2: come back, we'll talk about an Arizona player who's on 716 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 2: the verge of setting an NFL single season record. This 717 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 2: is the Bengals pep Rally Show presented by Just Bear 718 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 2: Chicken live from the On the Rhine Eatery the Food 719 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 2: Haul above the Downtown Kroger on ESPN fifteen thirty. It 720 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,360 Speaker 2: is a Friday afternoon here in the Queen City. That 721 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,760 Speaker 2: means we are hanging out at the On the Rhyin Eatery, 722 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 2: the food hall above the Downtown Kroger for the Bengals 723 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 2: pep Rally Show presented by Just Bear chick In. The 724 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 2: Bengals have a home game this week, the next to 725 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 2: last game of the regular season, as they host the 726 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 2: struggling Arizona Cardinals who started the season two to zero 727 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,479 Speaker 2: and have gone one to twelve since. But you can't 728 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 2: blame those struggles on their tight end, Trey McBride. The 729 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 2: NFL single season record for catches by a tight end 730 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 2: is one hundred and sixteen. That was set by Zach 731 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,359 Speaker 2: Ertz several years ago. Trey McBride is almost certainly going 732 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:52,800 Speaker 2: to beat it. He's got one hundred and nine catches 733 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 2: with two games to go. He had four catches last week. 734 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 2: That marked the first time in seventeen games he did 735 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 2: not have five or more, which is really unusual for 736 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 2: a tight end. Let's hear from Bengals head coach Zach 737 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:07,800 Speaker 2: Taylor on Trey McBride. 738 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:11,840 Speaker 8: I think Trey McBride is a phenomenal tight end. You know, 739 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 8: they use him really all the ways we try to 740 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 8: get you more of the ball. You know, you see 741 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 8: that from Trey. He's not gonna line up outside the 742 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 8: numbers necessarily and run the full route tree out there, 743 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 8: but put him out there and kind of the way 744 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 8: you see Ertz use in Philly a little bit, try 745 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 8: to get some matchups, and his Colorado State tape was 746 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 8: full of these middle screens. I'd never really seen a 747 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 8: tight end catch before and blow and behold. They're they're 748 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 8: using them like crazy on that. So they're just trying 749 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 8: to find a way to get him the ball every 750 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 8: which way imaginable. They do a great job of it 751 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 8: covered or uncovered. He's got really strong hands. He's a 752 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:46,800 Speaker 8: really physical runner, violent runner. One one of a really impressive, 753 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 8: impressive players in this league. 754 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 2: Lap to me, Trey McBride is brock Bowers from the Raiders, 755 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 2: but just with less publicity. 756 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 5: I think that's a great comment. I think that that 757 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 5: sums it up big time. I couldn't agree with you more. 758 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:07,960 Speaker 5: I mean, brock Bauers is is a force. He's extremely 759 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 5: gifted as a receiver. He can run the whole route 760 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 5: tree like McBride. Seventeen straight games with five catches and more. 761 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 5: That's amazing. It's amazing, and I'm almost speechless to the 762 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,000 Speaker 5: consistency of that. 763 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 2: You know how hard it is and durability a tight 764 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,360 Speaker 2: end too, because you know those guys are operating in 765 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 2: the middle of the field so often, they're taking shots 766 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,880 Speaker 2: from every direction. We used to talk about this with 767 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 2: Tyler Eiford, who unfortunately had more than his share of injuries. 768 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 2: At that position, you take shots that you can't avoid, 769 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 2: whereas a wide receiver you've got a chance to get 770 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:53,359 Speaker 2: out of bound, out of bounds a little more often. 771 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 2: Tight end, man, there's so many instances where you don't 772 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 2: even know where they're coming from with some of these 773 00:39:58,760 --> 00:39:59,439 Speaker 2: shots you take. 774 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 5: Remember Bob Trumpy talking about that very thing. 775 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:02,839 Speaker 3: Dan. 776 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 5: It's like, man, you know, when you're playing the tight 777 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 5: end position and you're doing your damage in the middle 778 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 5: of the football field, they're coming from everywhere. I mean, 779 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 5: it's like incoming shots, man, you know, bombs away in 780 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 5: you and you're the target. You know, you can get 781 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 5: crushed by a linebacker, a middle linebacker, or an outside 782 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 5: backer when you're running most of your patterns between the 783 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:30,400 Speaker 5: hash marks like Trump, he did safety, strong and free safety, 784 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 5: middle linebacker, outside backers. He took hits from all of them, 785 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 5: and a lot of times multiple guys on every play. 786 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 5: You know, on a single play he get hit by 787 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 5: a linebacker and a safety, a linebacker in a corner 788 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,839 Speaker 5: and you know, two of one one or the other, 789 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 5: one of one. 790 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 3: Two of the other. I mean, you know, he he. 791 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 5: He was fairly revolutionary. Bill Walsh did a lot with 792 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,920 Speaker 5: Bob Trumpy. He was kind of like, you know, the 793 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 5: receiver slash tight end of his era, of his day. 794 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 5: And that's what these guys are. That's what a lot 795 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:08,080 Speaker 5: of these tight ends in today's football are. The offenses 796 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 5: today are much more different, much different, i should say, 797 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,479 Speaker 5: than they were back in the seventies. Bob Trumpy stept 798 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 5: drafted in nineteen sixty eight. Paul Brown was revolutionary. Paul 799 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 5: Brown had a vision. Paul Brown saw things before anybody 800 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,919 Speaker 5: else did, and implemented them on the football field before 801 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 5: anybody else could and made people adjust to him. And 802 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 5: then he move on and do something else. And Bob 803 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 5: Trump he was one of his early favorite experiments at 804 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 5: the tight end position. 805 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 2: The Cardinals have Marvin Harrison Junior on the roster, the 806 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,360 Speaker 2: fourth pick in the draft last year out of Ohio State. 807 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 2: He's been beaten up in recent weeks, so he does 808 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,040 Speaker 2: not have tremendous stats this season. They do have a 809 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 2: wide receiver that they drafted a few years ago out 810 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 2: of Stanford, Michael Wilson, who's playing well, but make no mistake, 811 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 2: when they drop back to throw, they are looking for 812 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 2: Trey McBride first and foremost, Just like the Bengals look 813 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 2: to get it to Jamar Chase at every opportunity. That's 814 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 2: what the Cardinals are doing with Trey McBride. 815 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 5: Agreed one hundred thousand percent. You know Trey McBride is 816 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 5: gonna get his I mean, I think the quarterbacks with 817 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 5: the Arizona Cardinals steel like if he doesn't get his 818 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 5: five catches or more five to eight catches in the game, 819 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 5: we've done a disservice to our football team and to 820 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 5: Trey McBride because he wins so often. I mean, whenever 821 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 5: he's out there running a route on a football field, 822 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 5: he feels like he's better than the guy that he's 823 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 5: going against, and he's gonna win, get separation. He's a big, 824 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 5: strong body, so he runs with physicality. He can stick 825 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 5: his foot in the ground and change direction and creates separation. 826 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 5: He's not a slow tight end. I mean, he's not 827 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 5: a speechter. He doesn't you know, he's not gonna set 828 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 5: Olympic records. But the guy can run and he's a big, strong, physical, 829 00:42:58,480 --> 00:42:59,320 Speaker 5: gifted athlete. 830 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,880 Speaker 2: One hour in the Books, two hours to go Here 831 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 2: in the Bengals pep Rally Show presented by Just Bared Chicken. 832 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:08,359 Speaker 2: We're going to take a time out when we come back, 833 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 2: Bengals defensive coordinator Al Golden says, definitively, we will turn 834 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:19,239 Speaker 2: it around on defense next year. You'll hear that when 835 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 2: we come back.

It's the 858 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 2: Bengals and the Arizona Cardinals coming up on Sunday at 859 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 2: one o'clock at Pey Corse Stadium. The Bengals looking for 860 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:37,800 Speaker 2: their second win in a row, trying to hand the 861 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:41,279 Speaker 2: Cardinals their eighth loss in a row. The Bengals also 862 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 2: looking to play as well defensively this week as they 863 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 2: did last week against the Miami Dolphins. They gave a 864 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,320 Speaker 2: couple gave up a couple of early touchdowns, one in 865 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 2: the first quarter, one in the second quarter, and then 866 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 2: they were lights out in the second half. They got 867 00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 2: three takeaways and a fourth and one stop in the 868 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:02,759 Speaker 2: third quarter. They gave up a garbage time touchdown when 869 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 2: they were way ahead. Otherwise they would have only given 870 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 2: up fourteen points in the game. Even giving up twenty 871 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 2: one is fine. With this offense, you're usually going to win. 872 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 2: Sure when you allow twenty one or fewer points, no. 873 00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:14,839 Speaker 3: Question, Dan. 874 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:19,480 Speaker 5: I mean three turnovers, takeaways and a fourth down stop 875 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:23,560 Speaker 5: in a quarter. That's mind boggling. I mean, that's like 876 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,399 Speaker 5: that doesn't happen in the National Football League. You've got 877 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 5: offenses that are so dynamic. I mean, they have weapons 878 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:36,840 Speaker 5: that are incredible, and to be able to every single 879 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,040 Speaker 5: possession either take it away from them or stop them 880 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 5: on downs is an extraordinary feat. I mean, I just 881 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:51,640 Speaker 5: I can't get over how impressive that is. At that point, 882 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,759 Speaker 5: I'm sure the Miami Dolphins were thinking, what the hell 883 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:55,360 Speaker 5: is going on? 884 00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 4: Everything? 885 00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:59,359 Speaker 5: We call to have an answer for it? I mean, 886 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,880 Speaker 5: are they listening to our play calls? Is Al Golden 887 00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,839 Speaker 5: got some kind of a microphone in our huddle or something? 888 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,279 Speaker 5: What's going on here? How are they able to be 889 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 5: exactly where they need to be to stop the play? 890 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 5: I mean, they played at such a high level in 891 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 5: that third quarter, and like you say, Dan, twenty one 892 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,120 Speaker 5: points or less than the National Football League. I remember 893 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 5: back in the day, if our defense held people to 894 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 5: seventeen points or less, we expected to win the football game. 895 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 5: We ask our defense, you know, seventeen or less, just 896 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 5: holding to two touchdowns and field goal, and if we 897 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 5: can't score three touchdowns, we don't deserve to win the game. 898 00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 5: And that's pretty much I think how Joe Burrow feels offensively, 899 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 5: twenty one points in today's NFL, in today's world of 900 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 5: offense and the creativity and the weapons and everything that 901 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:56,760 Speaker 5: the NFL has going for it today, if an offense 902 00:46:56,880 --> 00:47:00,800 Speaker 5: is held to twenty one points, the defense that does that, 903 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,319 Speaker 5: their offensive football team should score twenty two or more 904 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 5: and win the game. 905 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 2: At this point, there's not much the Bengals defense can 906 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 2: do to really improve the overall stats for the season. 907 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 2: Even if they posted shutouts the final two games, they're 908 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 2: going to rank near the bottom in a lot of 909 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 2: these categories. They're currently lasting points allowed, lasting yards allowed. 910 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,880 Speaker 2: But it has clearly been getting better in recent weeks. 911 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,320 Speaker 2: Many of the young players that they've drafted in the 912 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:29,719 Speaker 2: first couple of days of the draft over the last 913 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 2: three or four years have shown considerable improvement. And that's 914 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:39,279 Speaker 2: why Al Golden so strongly and definitively feels like this 915 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 2: defense is going to be better next year. 916 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:44,239 Speaker 12: We're going to turn it around. 917 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:47,240 Speaker 3: There's no doubt. I mean, we got the right people 918 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:48,000 Speaker 3: in the building. 919 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 12: We've got leaders emerging, We've played you know, a lot 920 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 12: of young guys, and again I look at improvement. You know, 921 00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 12: individual improvement is what ultimately he's gonna lead to unit 922 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 12: success and team success. So the biggest thing for me, 923 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:07,360 Speaker 12: you know, is Jordan Battle getting better. Did Joseph Osai 924 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 12: get better? Is Myles Murphy getting better? 925 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:10,080 Speaker 3: Et cetera? 926 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 12: Getting better? You know, it was Jenkins better this year 927 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,320 Speaker 12: than last year. And I can go on and on 928 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,279 Speaker 12: and then then the next thing is, Okay, now Night 929 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 12: needs to be better. You know, we need to have 930 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:24,719 Speaker 12: continuity with Shamar Barrick, Carter needs to get better. But 931 00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 12: as DJ Turner better than last year, I'm gonna say, yeah, 932 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 12: you know, it's DA's better. So keep getting better, you know, 933 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:37,400 Speaker 12: get better in the off season and come back and 934 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:41,240 Speaker 12: have continuity and keep improving. 935 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:45,040 Speaker 3: And that's you know, you know, that's the answer that question. 936 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:50,480 Speaker 2: Al Golden rattled off ten names there. Nine of the 937 00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 2: ten are sure to be back next year. The only 938 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 2: possible exception would be Joseph Osai, who's in the final 939 00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 2: year of his deal. But the other guys are all 940 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:01,360 Speaker 2: still under contract. So we're talking about guys like Jordan Battle, 941 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:06,440 Speaker 2: Miles Murphy, Chris Jenkins, Shamar Stewart, Barrett Carter, DJ Turner, 942 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:10,360 Speaker 2: Dax Hill, and a few others. I'm not sure that 943 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,759 Speaker 2: there are a ton of stars on that list. Maybe 944 00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 2: DJ Turner deserves a mention. He could have very easily 945 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:18,640 Speaker 2: gone to the Pro Bowl this year, and he has 946 00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 2: a Pro Bowl alternate. Maybe if Miles Murphy keeps continuing, 947 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 2: we'll feel that way about him. Shamar Stewart certainly has 948 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 2: the potential to be a star down the road, but 949 00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:33,520 Speaker 2: any good defense is built up mostly of solid guys 950 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:36,320 Speaker 2: and then you hope to sprinkle in a few stars. 951 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 2: They could still use the stars, but at least it 952 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 2: seems like they're developing and proving to have the solid guys. 953 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:45,720 Speaker 5: Absolutely, and no NFL defense has a leven pro bowler. 954 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,879 Speaker 5: It's like that's a pipe tren. It's unrealistic, it's it's 955 00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 5: not capable of being accomplished. So yeah, DJ Turner in 956 00:49:54,960 --> 00:50:01,160 Speaker 5: my mind, is a star. Can cover, can tackle, he 957 00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 5: can he can do everything that you need to have done. 958 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:08,320 Speaker 5: Plays the run very very effectively, gets off blocks and 959 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:12,680 Speaker 5: tackles people like I mentioned earlier, and he's got outstanding 960 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:17,400 Speaker 5: coverage abilities. But there's nothing wrong with having you know, 961 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:22,680 Speaker 5: a DJ Turner who's a Pro Bowl guy, two other 962 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:25,600 Speaker 5: two or three other guys that are above average, well 963 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:29,040 Speaker 5: above average. You know, everybody in the National Football League 964 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,360 Speaker 5: would love to have those guys playing for him, and 965 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:36,719 Speaker 5: then everybody else being solid, good football players, knowing what 966 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,879 Speaker 5: the heck is going on, understanding what Al Golden wants 967 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:43,520 Speaker 5: out of his defensive scheme, figuring out how you fit 968 00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:49,680 Speaker 5: into that. UH, playing with solid fundamentals and UH and 969 00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 5: and the skill set is on the epswing, it's getting better. 970 00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 5: That's what Al Golden has. Al Golden has a bunch 971 00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:04,560 Speaker 5: of solid defensive players that care, that want to be good, 972 00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:08,520 Speaker 5: that want to do what Al Golden is trying to 973 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:13,280 Speaker 5: get done. They want to be part of that. They 974 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,320 Speaker 5: care about each other, they care about performing well for 975 00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:19,600 Speaker 5: themselves and their family. It's just you know, they love 976 00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:22,440 Speaker 5: the game of pro football, and that's what you're looking for. 977 00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 5: And if you're not happy with what you got, there's 978 00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:27,479 Speaker 5: a couple of games left for these guys to maybe 979 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:33,440 Speaker 5: play better and maybe advance themselves in the eye of 980 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:37,279 Speaker 5: Al Golden and the assistant coaches. But if not you 981 00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:40,360 Speaker 5: got the free agency in the twenty twenty five twenty 982 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 5: six offseason, the twenty twenty six NFL Draft to get better. 983 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they'd better attack it with every research that 984 00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 2: they have. It's four to twelve on a Friday afternoon. 985 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 2: The injury report is out, so let's get to the details. 986 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:57,320 Speaker 2: They are brought to you by the Kettering Health Injury Network. 987 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 2: The Kettering Health Network ID say it is the Kettering 988 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:04,040 Speaker 2: Health Injury Report. Been reading that card all year and 989 00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 2: I'm still screwing it up for some reason. But here 990 00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 2: are the key details. First. For the Bengals, Joseph Osai 991 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:12,919 Speaker 2: is out this week. Charlie Jones remains out, so they'll 992 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:15,279 Speaker 2: be missing one of their best pass rushers, and their 993 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:19,480 Speaker 2: kick and punt returner Noah Fant is listed as questionable. 994 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:23,279 Speaker 2: So those are the biggest Cincinnati question marks going into 995 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,919 Speaker 2: the game. For the Cardinals, their multi time Pro Bowl 996 00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:32,240 Speaker 2: safety Buddha Baker is out, a Cincinnati kid. They're starting 997 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 2: left tackle Paris Johnson out of Princeton High School in 998 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,600 Speaker 2: Ohio state. He is out, so we won't get to 999 00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:40,439 Speaker 2: see Paris Johnson play for the Cardinals this week. They're 1000 00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:44,520 Speaker 2: leading pass rusher Josh Schwett, who has eleven sacks this year, 1001 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:48,719 Speaker 2: listed as questionable. Additionally, these guys are not on the 1002 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:53,600 Speaker 2: injury report because they suffered season ending injuries last week. 1003 00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 2: Walter Nolan a season ending knee injury, so he's out. 1004 00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:01,239 Speaker 2: Cornerback Garrett Williams a season ending torn achilles last week, 1005 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 2: so he's out. So we talked about this earlier with 1006 00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:07,960 Speaker 2: a reporter who covers the Cardinals for the Arizona newspaper. 1007 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 2: This is the most injury ravaged team in the league 1008 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:16,360 Speaker 2: this year. By his estimation, ten of their best players 1009 00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:19,880 Speaker 2: will not take the field against the Bengals on Sunday. 1010 00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 5: That's uh, that's a mind boggling number right there. There's 1011 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:28,120 Speaker 5: only twenty two guys that are going to be taking 1012 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:31,680 Speaker 5: the field offensively and defensively. And when you when you 1013 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 5: are told that ten of the best ones won't be 1014 00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:40,800 Speaker 5: going against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, that is that 1015 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,600 Speaker 5: catches your attention, catches your attention big time. Uh. The 1016 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:48,080 Speaker 5: Arizona Cardinals are fighting an uphill battle, There's no no 1017 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,800 Speaker 5: doubt about it. I mean, they're they're going into football 1018 00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:53,880 Speaker 5: games with the next guy, next guy up. You know, 1019 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 5: it's it's that's always the battle cry. Next guy up. 1020 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 5: Hopefully the next guy up plays players well and you don't. 1021 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 5: You won't lose a whole lot by an injury to 1022 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:10,840 Speaker 5: a to a starting player. But the reality is, starting 1023 00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 5: player is a starting player for a reason. I mean, uh, 1024 00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:21,560 Speaker 5: he's he's time tested and uh, you know, over multiple 1025 00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 5: snaps and multiple games, he's proven to be the best guy. So, uh, 1026 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 5: you can get labeled a starter for a reason. 1027 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:31,880 Speaker 2: Well, Paris Johnson won't play for the Cardinals on Sunday. 1028 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 2: There are several players that have Cincinnati ties who will 1029 00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:38,319 Speaker 2: take the field for the Cardinals, including a King Davis Caather, 1030 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:41,440 Speaker 2: a Bengal for the past several seasons, signed as a 1031 00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:45,080 Speaker 2: free agent with Arizona this past offseason, and he has 1032 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 2: been starting at linebacker after an injury they had early 1033 00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:51,640 Speaker 2: this year. He'll actually go into the game number two 1034 00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:55,080 Speaker 2: in tackles for the Cardinals this season. On the offense 1035 00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 2: offensive side of the ball, they recently picked up former 1036 00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:02,680 Speaker 2: Roger Bacon and Universe of Cincinnati star Corey Kiner, not 1037 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 2: starting at running back, but likely to get several carries. 1038 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 2: He'll come in when Michael Carter goes out. Corey Kiner 1039 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:11,960 Speaker 2: had six carries for thirty two yards last week, his 1040 00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:16,319 Speaker 2: first significant action in a Cardinals uniform. Arizona also has 1041 00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:20,160 Speaker 2: tight end Josiah Deguara, who played at the University of Cincinnati, 1042 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 2: and even before that, he was a high school teammate 1043 00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:28,360 Speaker 2: in Fulsome, California with Bengals backup quarterback Jake Browning. He 1044 00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,919 Speaker 2: was Jake Browning's favorite target going back to their high 1045 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:34,919 Speaker 2: school days.

And when did 1083 00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 2: you know that football would ultimately be your path forward? 1084 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:35,920 Speaker 13: So growing up, we played everything, and then when I 1085 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:38,520 Speaker 13: got to the high school, played fotball, basketball, lacrosse. But 1086 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 13: for me, football was everything from an early age. My 1087 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:43,560 Speaker 13: dad coached high school football from the time I was born, 1088 00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:46,480 Speaker 13: so I've been on a field in pamps and as 1089 00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 13: long as I can remember, and it's the only thing 1090 00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 13: I ever wanted to do. My mom jokes and will 1091 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:52,200 Speaker 13: tell stories, so I told her that I wasn't going 1092 00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:54,400 Speaker 13: to college state classes. I was going there for chalk 1093 00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,800 Speaker 13: talk and film prep and things like that. That's what 1094 00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:59,120 Speaker 13: I was gonna do in college. So being able to 1095 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:02,040 Speaker 13: be here now, it's a thing. But I pretty much 1096 00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 13: knew football was my path. 1097 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,560 Speaker 2: All You played college football at Duke, which means you 1098 00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 2: were probably a very good student in high school.

You know, it's the best of both worlds. 1105 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:26,000 Speaker 13: I got to play very competitive, powerful football and get 1106 00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 13: one of the best educations in the country.

And since you know, he's 1133 00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 13: he's been nothing but a blessing to me and my family. 1134 00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 13: And between getting settled in sincey Bible studies, meeting with 1135 00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:35,400 Speaker 13: him one on one, you know, it's been really cool to, 1136 00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 13: you know, build that relationship. And Vinnie's a New York 1137 00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 13: guy who went to Duke, and I'm a New York 1138 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 13: guy I went to Duke, so it kind of just 1139 00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 13: worked out hand in hand. 1140 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 2: We're visiting with Joe Giles Harris. You had a great 1141 00:59:44,280 --> 00:59:47,440 Speaker 2: career at Duke, team MVP, two time first Team All 1142 00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:50,680 Speaker 2: acc or a team captain there your final year, did 1143 00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 2: you expect to get drafted and was it a big 1144 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:54,960 Speaker 2: disappointment when you weren't. 1145 00:59:55,360 --> 00:59:57,800 Speaker 13: Oh, I think so, I think for me, you know, 1146 00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:00,480 Speaker 13: that's obviously for everybody. It's the ultimate goals to get drafted, 1147 01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:03,680 Speaker 13: and when it didn't happen, you know, it hurt a 1148 01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:06,200 Speaker 13: little bit. But I come from a competitive household and 1149 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 13: my brother plays professional lacrals and things like that, so 1150 01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:10,120 Speaker 13: there was no sulking in the moment. It was just 1151 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:11,520 Speaker 13: all right, what are you gonna do to stay? What 1152 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,600 Speaker 13: are you gonna do to you know, actually make it? 1153 01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 13: Because you're not the first The first door is not open, 1154 01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:17,560 Speaker 13: so you got to walk to the second door. So 1155 01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:20,600 Speaker 13: for me, it was disappointing, but I think it also 1156 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:22,920 Speaker 13: taught me a lot of things about myself. And it 1157 01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 13: taught me that if I really wanted, I had to 1158 01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:27,080 Speaker 13: put in that much more work to get to where 1159 01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 13: I'm at. And seven years later, I'm still here doing it. 1160 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:32,360 Speaker 13: So uh, blessed for how it's gone, how it started. 1161 01:00:32,360 --> 01:00:33,920 Speaker 2: It was gonna up, but you know, figured it out 1162 01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:37,480 Speaker 2: because of the way NFL accounting works. The roster says 1163 01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:40,080 Speaker 2: you have two years of NFL experience, and it's always 1164 01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:43,440 Speaker 2: annoying to me because the truth is, this is your 1165 01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:47,640 Speaker 2: seventh NFL season, including time that you've spent on practice squads. 1166 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:51,080 Speaker 2: It's a good living regardless of what your status is 1167 01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:54,120 Speaker 2: on the roster. What's been the key for you to 1168 01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 2: remain an NFL player for seven years? 1169 01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 4: For me, I think it's just been simple. You know, 1170 01:00:59,080 --> 01:00:59,920 Speaker 4: show up to work every day. 1171 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:00,280 Speaker 3: Work. 1172 01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 13: There's somebody coming in and take your spot every day. 1173 01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:06,000 Speaker 13: There's a hundred guys who are getting tryouts every day, 1174 01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:08,160 Speaker 13: and so what are you doing in that building to 1175 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:10,560 Speaker 13: stand out on a consistent basis? 1176 01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:12,040 Speaker 4: So it's you know, I've. 1177 01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:16,160 Speaker 13: Built a routine being consistent and just being vocal and 1178 01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:17,840 Speaker 13: being a leader. And when you get your opportunity to 1179 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 13: make players make plays. That's the league about. The more 1180 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:21,160 Speaker 13: plays you make, the longer you'll stay. The less plays 1181 01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 13: you're make and I have to find something else to do. 1182 01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 2: I introduced you off the top as a linebacker and 1183 01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:28,640 Speaker 2: special teams stand out right now. Pro Football Focus has 1184 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:32,600 Speaker 2: you graded number eleven among all special teams players in 1185 01:01:32,680 --> 01:01:35,760 Speaker 2: the NFL so far this year. You've had several tackles 1186 01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 2: and kick coverage in recent weeks. How much of special 1187 01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:43,000 Speaker 2: team's success is all out effort and how much is 1188 01:01:43,120 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 2: knowledge and technique? 1189 01:01:45,240 --> 01:01:46,920 Speaker 13: Well, I think you know it's a combination of both, 1190 01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:50,240 Speaker 13: but shout out, you know, Coach Daron coach Ben and 1191 01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:51,600 Speaker 13: you know, the guys in the unit. You know, I'm 1192 01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:52,920 Speaker 13: just the guy who's been lucky enough to have a 1193 01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:55,480 Speaker 13: couple of tackles these past few games. But it comes 1194 01:01:55,520 --> 01:01:58,360 Speaker 13: down to film study and just working hard. And you know, 1195 01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:01,200 Speaker 13: I think for a lot of you know, early on, 1196 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:02,640 Speaker 13: you can kind of look at special teams as that 1197 01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:03,920 Speaker 13: I don't want to play special teams. I want to 1198 01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:04,919 Speaker 13: be a defensive I want to be off. 1199 01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:05,200 Speaker 3: With the guy. 1200 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:09,160 Speaker 13: But it's just as important. It's it's just as fun 1201 01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:11,880 Speaker 13: and you know, guy's carve out roles doing that. So 1202 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:14,440 Speaker 13: for me, like I told you, just being consistent and 1203 01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:15,680 Speaker 13: doing what I have to do to stay in a 1204 01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:17,880 Speaker 13: building and you know, getting the opportunity to play there 1205 01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:20,439 Speaker 13: and it's been nothing but good to me and kind 1206 01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:22,360 Speaker 13: of opened my eyes a little more, specially in the world. 1207 01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:24,240 Speaker 13: And I just thank my film setting things for being 1208 01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:25,520 Speaker 13: able to be in the right place at the right time. 1209 01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:29,479 Speaker 2: Maybe in a perfect world, you get drafted by a team, 1210 01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:32,120 Speaker 2: you spend a decade with that team, and that's your 1211 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:32,960 Speaker 2: NFL career. 1212 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:34,640 Speaker 4: That's not been the path for you. 1213 01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:37,720 Speaker 2: On the other hand, you've probably made hundreds of friends 1214 01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:40,320 Speaker 2: and the different teams you've been with, You've seen how 1215 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:43,280 Speaker 2: it works in different places, you've lived in different cities. 1216 01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:45,160 Speaker 4: Have you enjoyed that part of your career. 1217 01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 3: Absolutely. 1218 01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:47,880 Speaker 4: I don't think any of this for granted. 1219 01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:52,480 Speaker 13: I've made nothing but great relationships, and you know, just 1220 01:02:52,720 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 13: the people I've met along the way have been amazing, 1221 01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:56,000 Speaker 13: and that you know, there's people you met along the 1222 01:02:56,040 --> 01:02:58,320 Speaker 13: way who aren't amazing. But it's just part of the process. 1223 01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 13: But I'd say the overall knowledge of game, just from 1224 01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:04,080 Speaker 13: the business side of it, how the NFL works, you 1225 01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:06,200 Speaker 13: know what locker rooms are like and things like that. 1226 01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:09,200 Speaker 13: I think it's kind of really helped me, you know, 1227 01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:12,880 Speaker 13: stay focused and stay grounded and things like that, and 1228 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:15,120 Speaker 13: to really like it's been nothing but a blessing. 1229 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:16,400 Speaker 4: Like I've loved this process. 1230 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:18,120 Speaker 13: It's been hard. There's been days where I'm like, this 1231 01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:19,959 Speaker 13: is not it. This is the worst thing in the world, 1232 01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,880 Speaker 13: but it's you know, everything's turned the corner for me 1233 01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:26,120 Speaker 13: and I'm grateful for it. I came to this lead 1234 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:27,800 Speaker 13: with no kids. I have two kids now, two beautiful 1235 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:29,520 Speaker 13: kids who have now part of this process. My wife's 1236 01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 13: part of the process. So it's been good for us. 1237 01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:33,920 Speaker 13: It's given us a different perspective, got to live in 1238 01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:35,640 Speaker 13: different areas of the country, which is cool, you know, 1239 01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:37,160 Speaker 13: being from New York, I only wanted to live in 1240 01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:39,080 Speaker 13: New York, so it was good I was able to 1241 01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:41,600 Speaker 13: branch out and do things like that. But it's been 1242 01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:44,720 Speaker 13: a blessing and I cherished every every place I've been 1243 01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:46,840 Speaker 13: at has been good for me and my family, and 1244 01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:48,440 Speaker 13: I'm just forever grateful. 1245 01:03:48,920 --> 01:03:51,160 Speaker 2: All right, a few wild card topics now for Joe 1246 01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:55,160 Speaker 2: Giles Harris. Since you mentioned having two kids, son, daughter, 1247 01:03:55,360 --> 01:03:57,280 Speaker 2: one of each, and what's your favorite thing about being 1248 01:03:57,320 --> 01:03:57,600 Speaker 2: a dad. 1249 01:03:57,680 --> 01:03:59,360 Speaker 4: My son is two years old and my daughter's one 1250 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:00,960 Speaker 4: years old, and Breeze and. 1251 01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:03,160 Speaker 13: Uh, I think my favorite part of being the dad 1252 01:04:03,200 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 13: is coming home and hearing what they had to say 1253 01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 13: about their day, and you know. 1254 01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:07,040 Speaker 3: What they did or what I did. 1255 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:08,880 Speaker 13: And my son's at the age where he understands things 1256 01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 13: now and wants to play football. So I get home 1257 01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:12,920 Speaker 13: and Dad, you didn't make a tackle the day, and 1258 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:14,480 Speaker 13: I'm like, yeah, I know, I didn't make a tackle, Bunny. 1259 01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:14,920 Speaker 3: I'm trying. 1260 01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:18,480 Speaker 13: So just that part, but it's just coming home and 1261 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:21,720 Speaker 13: you know, seeing there's something more important than whatever you 1262 01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,880 Speaker 13: got going on that day. So I love to My 1263 01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:26,720 Speaker 13: daughter runs to me every time I come to the house, 1264 01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 13: whether it's because she was being bad that day or 1265 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:29,960 Speaker 13: she just wants to see me. It is, you know, 1266 01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 13: to be determined, but just seeing their face, seeing their smiles, 1267 01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:35,440 Speaker 13: and remember there's you know, there's people counting on me 1268 01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:38,520 Speaker 13: to be more than a football player, and I think 1269 01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:39,560 Speaker 13: that's the best part about it. 1270 01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:43,280 Speaker 2: You have a hyphenated last name, Giles Harris. Was that 1271 01:04:43,480 --> 01:04:45,480 Speaker 2: always the case or did you make that choice? 1272 01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:46,760 Speaker 4: That's been always the case. 1273 01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:48,800 Speaker 13: My mom and my dad neither want wanted to get 1274 01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:52,400 Speaker 13: up their last name, and it sounds great and it's 1275 01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 13: original and when you see it, you know who I am. 1276 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 13: So the only people who have that last name are 1277 01:04:58,040 --> 01:05:01,040 Speaker 13: people blood related to me. So I think I think 1278 01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:03,520 Speaker 13: it's a blessing. It helps me stand out and it's unique. 1279 01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:07,400 Speaker 2: So I appreciate you referenced your brother JT. Earlier, a 1280 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:10,640 Speaker 2: professional lacrosse player for the Denver Outlaws. He is a 1281 01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:13,440 Speaker 2: three time All Star in the Premier Lacrosse League. Tell 1282 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:14,720 Speaker 2: us a little bit about his career. 1283 01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:17,080 Speaker 13: Oh, well, my brother has been, you know, the best 1284 01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:19,440 Speaker 13: player at lacrosse in my opinion, and I know that 1285 01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:21,040 Speaker 13: probably doesn't care well because I live in the house. 1286 01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 13: But he's been the best lacrosse player I've seen in 1287 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,080 Speaker 13: a long time. He plays defense, you know, he played 1288 01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:28,320 Speaker 13: defense playing growing up, playing football and things like that, 1289 01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:30,560 Speaker 13: so kind of translated. But he's had, you know, a 1290 01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:32,440 Speaker 13: heck of probably a better career than I have had, 1291 01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:34,720 Speaker 13: to be honest. He you know, was a Defensive Player 1292 01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:37,480 Speaker 13: of the Year in college All American most of his 1293 01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:39,200 Speaker 13: time in college. I think he won Defensive Player of 1294 01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:42,560 Speaker 13: the Year already in the PLL. So he's just a study, 1295 01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:45,440 Speaker 13: handles his business. He approaches every day coming similar that 1296 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:48,000 Speaker 13: I do, you know, just attack the day mentality, and 1297 01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:50,760 Speaker 13: he's he's just a competitor, like there's a fire in 1298 01:05:50,840 --> 01:05:53,240 Speaker 13: him and it burns and he's gonna get his job none. 1299 01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:53,480 Speaker 4: No matter what. 1300 01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:56,680 Speaker 2: Out there than football, What are you good at? 1301 01:05:57,840 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 4: Depends? 1302 01:05:58,320 --> 01:06:03,160 Speaker 13: Yes, I think I'm a pretty good basketball player of myself. Basketball, 1303 01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:04,880 Speaker 13: you know, and I like to just hang out. I'm 1304 01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:07,040 Speaker 13: a big I love to watch movies and do things 1305 01:06:07,120 --> 01:06:10,240 Speaker 13: like that. I love history, so I like to watch 1306 01:06:10,280 --> 01:06:11,920 Speaker 13: you know, the trivia stuff and like things like that 1307 01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:14,680 Speaker 13: and test my brain. But those are pretty much small things. 1308 01:06:14,680 --> 01:06:15,720 Speaker 13: I'm gonna all right. 1309 01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:18,400 Speaker 2: Final fun fact for Joe Giles Harris. This one's kind 1310 01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:22,880 Speaker 2: of deep. If you could meet anyone in history, living 1311 01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:25,520 Speaker 2: or deceased, who would that person be? 1312 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:29,040 Speaker 13: I say, right now, off the top of my head, 1313 01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:32,240 Speaker 13: probably Barack Obama, And I would just you know, just 1314 01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:34,040 Speaker 13: want to pick his brain about you know, he was 1315 01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:36,640 Speaker 13: the first black president of the United States, and you know, 1316 01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:39,000 Speaker 13: things he went through growing up and the things he 1317 01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 13: went through as our president. So just to kind of 1318 01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:43,240 Speaker 13: pick his brain and see where he's at, you know, 1319 01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:45,200 Speaker 13: because it takes a strong person to you know, lead 1320 01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:48,480 Speaker 13: this country, and especially when you're the first of you know, 1321 01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:51,439 Speaker 13: a group to do that. So just pick his brain 1322 01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:53,400 Speaker 13: and you know, just get to know him. I think 1323 01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:54,880 Speaker 13: that would be probably the person I want to meet 1324 01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:55,200 Speaker 13: the most. 1325 01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:57,600 Speaker 4: This has been great. Appreciate your time. Best of like 1326 01:06:57,680 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 4: the rest of the year. 1327 01:06:58,360 --> 01:06:58,640 Speaker 3: Thank you. 1328 01:06:58,680 --> 01:06:59,320 Speaker 4: I appreciate it. 1329 01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:03,479 Speaker 2: The very articulate Joe Giles Harris again a guy doing 1330 01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:06,520 Speaker 2: a terrific job as a special team's ace this year. 1331 01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:10,560 Speaker 5: He really has been, and when you listen to him, 1332 01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:14,920 Speaker 5: you have to be impressed with his overall intelligence. I mean, 1333 01:07:14,960 --> 01:07:18,400 Speaker 5: this guy is got an IQ now not just football 1334 01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:20,480 Speaker 5: like you. He does have a great football like you. 1335 01:07:20,600 --> 01:07:24,720 Speaker 5: The coaches say that he's Menza from a football IQ standpoint, 1336 01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:28,120 Speaker 5: But man, he knows a lot about a lot of things, 1337 01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:32,480 Speaker 5: and he is well read. He's the kind of guy 1338 01:07:32,560 --> 01:07:35,800 Speaker 5: that the Bengals like to have on the roster. Just 1339 01:07:35,920 --> 01:07:39,160 Speaker 5: a good human being, a good person. And Zach puts 1340 01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:42,520 Speaker 5: a big emphasis on that. And the coaches do you know, 1341 01:07:43,080 --> 01:07:45,400 Speaker 5: they want guys that are going to be part of 1342 01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:49,440 Speaker 5: the part of the reason for the success, not somebody. 1343 01:07:49,520 --> 01:07:52,120 Speaker 5: They don't want anybody to infiltrate and tear it down. 1344 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:55,960 Speaker 5: So I think they're ahead in the right direction, and 1345 01:07:56,040 --> 01:07:58,240 Speaker 5: I think they're going to get there faster than people think. 1346 01:07:58,680 --> 01:08:00,760 Speaker 2: All right, well take a time out. When we come back, 1347 01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:04,920 Speaker 2: we'll hear from t Higgins, who bounced back from concussion 1348 01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:07,680 Speaker 2: protocol with a big performance last week for the Bengals 1349 01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:10,600 Speaker 2: in their win in Miami. This is the Bengals pep 1350 01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:14,439 Speaker 2: Rally Show, presented each week by Just Bear Chicken, live 1351 01:08:14,480 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 2: from the on the Rhine Eatery the food Haul above 1352 01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:22,840 Speaker 2: the downtown Kroger here on ESPN fifteen thirty first and 1353 01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:25,679 Speaker 2: goal from the nine for Cincinnati Burrow in the gun 1354 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:28,920 Speaker 2: back at the fourteen Chase Brown off his right hip. 1355 01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:31,960 Speaker 2: Burrow catches the shot gun snap, looking right, throws into 1356 01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:37,600 Speaker 2: the end zone for Higgins. He's done it. Touchdown Bengals. 1357 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:41,840 Speaker 14: T Higgins, with a great adjustment to the ball, then 1358 01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:45,759 Speaker 14: drops to his knees and praise to a higher power 1359 01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:49,599 Speaker 14: after making a great catch on that throw from Joe Burrow. 1360 01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:50,920 Speaker 5: Unbelievable play by T. 1361 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:51,439 Speaker 6: Higgins. 1362 01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 5: He showed everything. He showed his size, he showed his athleticism, 1363 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:55,880 Speaker 5: he showed his soft hand. 1364 01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:59,040 Speaker 2: Dan Horden, Dave Lapp him back in the Bengals pep 1365 01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:01,920 Speaker 2: rally show present by Just the Bare Chick, and we 1366 01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:05,160 Speaker 2: can understand why T. Higgins dropped to his knees and 1367 01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:08,840 Speaker 2: pointed toward the heavens after that touchdown catch. Last week 1368 01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:12,880 Speaker 2: in Miami, he suffered a concussion in the New England game, 1369 01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:17,040 Speaker 2: missed the following game against Baltimore. In the Buffalo game 1370 01:09:17,080 --> 01:09:19,800 Speaker 2: the week after that, his head banged down on that 1371 01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:23,160 Speaker 2: frozen turf in Buffalo several times, and while he was 1372 01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:26,080 Speaker 2: not diagnosed with a concussion during the game, he had 1373 01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:29,800 Speaker 2: some symptoms in the following days. Missed the next game 1374 01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:33,679 Speaker 2: after that, also against Baltimore, So this past week, after 1375 01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:36,640 Speaker 2: going through concussion protocol, I thought the Bengals did a 1376 01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:40,240 Speaker 2: great thing for t Higgins. They flew him to Pittsburgh 1377 01:09:40,280 --> 01:09:43,440 Speaker 2: to see one of the world's foremost authorities on concussions, 1378 01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,840 Speaker 2: made sure that he was a peace of mind to 1379 01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:51,439 Speaker 2: come back from such a serious injury. This concussion renowned 1380 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:55,000 Speaker 2: specialist signed off and assured Tea that he was fine 1381 01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:56,960 Speaker 2: and was going to be fine to play. So he 1382 01:09:57,040 --> 01:10:00,160 Speaker 2: took the field against Miami. He played great. It was 1383 01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:03,040 Speaker 2: awesome to see. Here's what he had to say about 1384 01:10:03,080 --> 01:10:03,840 Speaker 2: it after the game. 1385 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 5: You know, the bring injury. 1386 01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:07,040 Speaker 15: There's nothing that's nothing to play with as serious, and 1387 01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:09,479 Speaker 15: it confects you in a long time, you know. I mean, 1388 01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:13,000 Speaker 15: so I see every everything everybody's saying it. I should say, 1389 01:10:13,040 --> 01:10:15,839 Speaker 15: I see all that, but I want to see a specialist, 1390 01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:17,840 Speaker 15: and especially said it was okay for me to, you know, 1391 01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 15: go back out there and play my game. 1392 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:19,720 Speaker 5: And that's what I think. 1393 01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:23,000 Speaker 2: That's what I did. He was limited in practice by 1394 01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:26,640 Speaker 2: and large last week as he came through concussion protocol. 1395 01:10:26,760 --> 01:10:29,080 Speaker 2: Then it was on Thursday morning that he flew to 1396 01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:33,320 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh first thing in the morning, saw this specialist. They 1397 01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:34,760 Speaker 2: didn't even know if he was going to be back 1398 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:37,320 Speaker 2: at practice. He was back in the building practicing that day. 1399 01:10:38,200 --> 01:10:41,120 Speaker 5: It's a great thing that the Bengals organization did for 1400 01:10:41,200 --> 01:10:41,599 Speaker 5: a player. 1401 01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:42,560 Speaker 3: I mean, it really is. 1402 01:10:43,479 --> 01:10:47,560 Speaker 5: Concussions are no joke. I mean, the Players Association is 1403 01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:51,320 Speaker 5: always doing everything they possibly can to make sure the 1404 01:10:51,400 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 5: concussion protocols are first rate, they're. 1405 01:10:55,240 --> 01:10:55,840 Speaker 4: Up to speed. 1406 01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:02,960 Speaker 5: Concussions are the big fear of the Union, the Players Association, 1407 01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:07,680 Speaker 5: because if a player suffers too many of them, it 1408 01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:11,320 Speaker 5: can be a bad life after football, and you know, 1409 01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:14,479 Speaker 5: tragedy you don't even want to think about after football. 1410 01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:20,160 Speaker 5: So the fact that the Bengals feel that way about 1411 01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:23,600 Speaker 5: t Higgins, that look, you're a priority. We want to 1412 01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:26,840 Speaker 5: make sure that you feel good about going out there 1413 01:11:26,880 --> 01:11:29,439 Speaker 5: and playing football. We don't want you to be unsure 1414 01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:31,720 Speaker 5: we didn't. We don't want you to think, oh, the 1415 01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:35,360 Speaker 5: Bengals organizations forcing me out there, you know, against my will. 1416 01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:40,439 Speaker 5: So I think that it's it's good for the Bengals, 1417 01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 5: it's good for the National Football League, it's good for 1418 01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:45,400 Speaker 5: the Players Association. I think the Bengals got a really 1419 01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:46,760 Speaker 5: good example this past week. 1420 01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:49,960 Speaker 2: T Higgins has never played in a Pro Bowl, but 1421 01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:53,400 Speaker 2: he is a first alternate this year. Jamaar Chase, of 1422 01:11:53,439 --> 01:11:55,599 Speaker 2: course is five for five and going to the Pro Bowl, 1423 01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 2: but he is a first alternate. So if one of 1424 01:11:58,120 --> 01:12:01,720 Speaker 2: the wide receivers picked goes to the Super Bowl or 1425 01:12:01,800 --> 01:12:04,720 Speaker 2: comes down with an injury, t would be the next 1426 01:12:04,800 --> 01:12:07,080 Speaker 2: man up. And it would be awesome to see both 1427 01:12:07,720 --> 01:12:11,120 Speaker 2: Bengals wide receivers participate in the Pro Bowl games this year. 1428 01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:14,839 Speaker 5: It really would. I mean, that's a what a compliment, 1429 01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:18,080 Speaker 5: what a compliment to the Bengals organization, the head coach 1430 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:20,880 Speaker 5: Zac Taylor to the receiver coach Troy Walters. I mean, 1431 01:12:21,160 --> 01:12:24,559 Speaker 5: when you've got two, not just one, you've got two 1432 01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:27,479 Speaker 5: from your position group, and then you know you don't 1433 01:12:27,520 --> 01:12:31,200 Speaker 5: suit out a gazillion wide receivers every game. So when 1434 01:12:31,320 --> 01:12:33,400 Speaker 5: you've got two that are playing at that high a level, 1435 01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:39,439 Speaker 5: that's a reflection, a positive reflection on everybody involved, the coaches, 1436 01:12:39,520 --> 01:12:44,040 Speaker 5: the players, the organization. It's a win for everybody. 1437 01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:48,320 Speaker 2: The three wide receivers other than Jamar Chase who are 1438 01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:52,120 Speaker 2: named to the AFC Pro Bowl roster or Nicocollins from Houston, 1439 01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:57,120 Speaker 2: Zay Flowers from Baltimore, Courtland Sutton from Denver. Denver could 1440 01:12:57,120 --> 01:12:59,559 Speaker 2: certainly go into the go to the Super Bowl. They'll 1441 01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:02,200 Speaker 2: be one of the favorites in the postseason. Houston's been 1442 01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:05,240 Speaker 2: playing extremely well of late. Wouldn't rule it out. Baltimore 1443 01:13:05,320 --> 01:13:07,479 Speaker 2: seems like a long shot. But you know, maybe one 1444 01:13:07,520 --> 01:13:09,760 Speaker 2: of those guys will not be able to make it 1445 01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:12,680 Speaker 2: to the Pro Bowl games and T will get that opportunity. Yeah. 1446 01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:14,680 Speaker 3: Then, and T he deserves it. 1447 01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:18,640 Speaker 5: I mean, there's no question that he has played this 1448 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:23,400 Speaker 5: season like a Pro Bowler, you know, in every sense 1449 01:13:23,439 --> 01:13:23,840 Speaker 5: of the word. 1450 01:13:24,439 --> 01:13:26,840 Speaker 3: And I think T. 1451 01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:32,519 Speaker 5: Higgins is all about his football team. It's not about him. 1452 01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:37,240 Speaker 5: It's not about individual glory, it's not about individual awards. 1453 01:13:37,680 --> 01:13:39,759 Speaker 5: T Higgins is all about winning Super Bowls. 1454 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:42,720 Speaker 2: All Right, We're gonna take a time out when we 1455 01:13:42,880 --> 01:13:45,400 Speaker 2: come back, we will stick with the Pro Bowl as 1456 01:13:45,439 --> 01:13:48,439 Speaker 2: our theme and talk about the Bengals player who really 1457 01:13:48,600 --> 01:13:52,040 Speaker 2: can be described as a Pro Bowl snub this year. 1458 01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:55,160 Speaker 2: You're listening to the Bengals pep Rally Show presented by 1459 01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:58,280 Speaker 2: Just Bear Chicken live from the on the Rhine Eatery 1460 01:13:58,400 --> 01:14:08,519 Speaker 2: on ESPN fifteen thirty Lapping the bald Man back on 1461 01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:11,960 Speaker 2: the Bengals pep Rally show presented by Just Fair Chicken, 1462 01:14:12,040 --> 01:14:13,880 Speaker 2: live from the on the Ryan Eatery, the food haul 1463 01:14:13,920 --> 01:14:17,639 Speaker 2: above the downtown Kroger intersection of Court and Walnut. We're 1464 01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:19,960 Speaker 2: here until six o'clock tonight and come up in about 1465 01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:23,000 Speaker 2: fifteen minutes or so. Will be joined by starting left 1466 01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:26,439 Speaker 2: guard Dylan Fairchild, who will spend the final hour of 1467 01:14:26,520 --> 01:14:29,400 Speaker 2: the show with us. He's at the on the Ryane Eatery. 1468 01:14:29,479 --> 01:14:31,479 Speaker 2: We're talking about the Pro Bowl. A few minutes ago. 1469 01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:34,080 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase has been selected for the fifth time in 1470 01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:37,640 Speaker 2: five years to begin his NFL career. AJ Green is 1471 01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:40,479 Speaker 2: the only other player in franchise history that went five 1472 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:43,400 Speaker 2: for five to begin his career. The Bengals also have 1473 01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:47,200 Speaker 2: some alternates. We mentioned the T Higgins is a first alternate, 1474 01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:50,599 Speaker 2: so if one guy's out, he would be in. Charlie 1475 01:14:50,720 --> 01:14:53,640 Speaker 2: Jones is a fifth alternate as a kick returner, so 1476 01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:56,720 Speaker 2: it's probably unlikely that he will move up that far 1477 01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:57,519 Speaker 2: to get into the game. 1478 01:14:57,680 --> 01:14:57,800 Speaker 4: Right. 1479 01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:01,200 Speaker 2: Then you have DJ Turner. He is a third alternate, 1480 01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:03,360 Speaker 2: so a couple of guys would have to miss for 1481 01:15:03,560 --> 01:15:06,439 Speaker 2: Dj to get in. We've been talking about him as 1482 01:15:06,479 --> 01:15:09,920 Speaker 2: a deserving candidate for several weeks tied for the NFL 1483 01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:13,280 Speaker 2: lead and passes defense. He has been covering the other 1484 01:15:13,360 --> 01:15:16,680 Speaker 2: team's number one receiver and those guys typically have not 1485 01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:21,080 Speaker 2: had big games against Cincinnati. Here's Joe Burrow making the 1486 01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:23,320 Speaker 2: case for his teammate DJ Turner. 1487 01:15:23,680 --> 01:15:25,080 Speaker 3: I thought j should have been the Pro Bowl. 1488 01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:27,479 Speaker 11: But you know, I told him the other day. Usually 1489 01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:30,040 Speaker 11: the first year that you should make it, you're typically 1490 01:15:30,080 --> 01:15:31,880 Speaker 11: an ultimate, and then if you stack that year, they 1491 01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:33,599 Speaker 11: usually give it to you the next year. That's happened 1492 01:15:34,080 --> 01:15:36,639 Speaker 11: to me in a couple kind of see that across 1493 01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:37,439 Speaker 11: the league a little bit. 1494 01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:41,519 Speaker 2: So that is often how it works. You don't get 1495 01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:44,200 Speaker 2: in the first time you're an alternate. Your name starts 1496 01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:46,599 Speaker 2: to get out there as a quote unquote Pro bowler, 1497 01:15:46,960 --> 01:15:49,200 Speaker 2: and then you make it, and maybe you keep making 1498 01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:51,920 Speaker 2: it past the point right where you deserve to make it. 1499 01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:54,720 Speaker 2: Denzel Ward, at least statistically, is not having a good 1500 01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:59,479 Speaker 2: year for clevelandy Football Focus grades. But he's going and 1501 01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:03,439 Speaker 2: certainly for much of his career he's been tremendous, but 1502 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:06,120 Speaker 2: maybe this year he is not one of the top 1503 01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:07,160 Speaker 2: corners in the AFC. 1504 01:16:07,439 --> 01:16:09,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, agreed, Dan, you know, and I think the thing 1505 01:16:09,800 --> 01:16:13,280 Speaker 5: about paternat. To keep in mind is he's been put 1506 01:16:13,439 --> 01:16:16,920 Speaker 5: he's the number one guy, he's their shutdown guy. He's 1507 01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:20,040 Speaker 5: been on the other team's best weapon, the best receiver. 1508 01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:23,040 Speaker 5: So he's had a lot of activity, you know, and 1509 01:16:23,160 --> 01:16:25,960 Speaker 5: he and he's stepped up. He's had an opportunity to 1510 01:16:26,080 --> 01:16:28,040 Speaker 5: defend a lot of passes. But a lot of guys 1511 01:16:28,120 --> 01:16:30,439 Speaker 5: have a lot of opportunity, they don't do it. He 1512 01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:33,719 Speaker 5: rose to the occasion and he defended a lot of passes. 1513 01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:35,720 Speaker 5: He had a lot of passes broken up, a lot 1514 01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:40,280 Speaker 5: of passes knocked down. That that's valuable. I mean, that's 1515 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:44,720 Speaker 5: that's discouraging to a quarterback when jeez, this guy, I 1516 01:16:44,800 --> 01:16:47,479 Speaker 5: mean he is sticky out there. I might have to 1517 01:16:47,520 --> 01:16:50,600 Speaker 5: stay away from him. That is about as big a 1518 01:16:50,840 --> 01:16:53,280 Speaker 5: contribution as you can make as anything. It's like you 1519 01:16:53,400 --> 01:16:57,040 Speaker 5: take away that that weapon from the from the quarterback. 1520 01:16:57,280 --> 01:16:59,280 Speaker 5: It's like she's I'm gonna have to wait for another 1521 01:16:59,360 --> 01:17:02,000 Speaker 5: day to get the ball to my number one guy. 1522 01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:04,320 Speaker 5: So and so it's not happening to say because this 1523 01:17:04,479 --> 01:17:07,040 Speaker 5: DJ Turner is everything we thought he was when we 1524 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:09,599 Speaker 5: were watching tape. This guy's the real deal. This guy's 1525 01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:13,599 Speaker 5: a Pro Bowl caliber player that is invaluable to take 1526 01:17:13,640 --> 01:17:17,200 Speaker 5: away the other team's number one receiving weapon. 1527 01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:21,559 Speaker 2: We've talked about the twenty twenty three draft. That's looking 1528 01:17:21,640 --> 01:17:24,679 Speaker 2: better and better all the time for Cincinnati. Miles Murphy 1529 01:17:24,880 --> 01:17:28,479 Speaker 2: in round one, that one was, you know, looking like 1530 01:17:28,600 --> 01:17:31,719 Speaker 2: a potential bust and now not meymore. He's really emerged 1531 01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:36,240 Speaker 2: as a solid, if not spectacular player defensive end. DJ 1532 01:17:36,400 --> 01:17:39,200 Speaker 2: Turner looks like he might be a star. Jordan Battle 1533 01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:42,000 Speaker 2: has really been playing well in recent weeks. Chase Brown 1534 01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:45,240 Speaker 2: has been excellent now for a couple of years. Andre 1535 01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:48,880 Speaker 2: Yosi Vash has certainly productive player for a sixth round pick. 1536 01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:53,440 Speaker 2: Dj Ivy is good as a cover the tight end specialist. 1537 01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:56,240 Speaker 2: So that draft, pretty much top to bottom, is panning 1538 01:17:56,280 --> 01:17:57,400 Speaker 2: out well for Cincinnati. 1539 01:17:57,760 --> 01:17:58,800 Speaker 3: And at the end of this. 1540 01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:01,960 Speaker 2: Season, now that those guys have three years in the league, 1541 01:18:02,240 --> 01:18:06,200 Speaker 2: the Bengals are allowed to begin extending those players if 1542 01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:06,559 Speaker 2: they can. 1543 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:10,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, and uh Duke Tobin and his scouts and the 1544 01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:13,240 Speaker 5: organization take a bow. I mean that that was a 1545 01:18:13,439 --> 01:18:16,880 Speaker 5: solid draft. There's no question you drafted a Pro Bowl 1546 01:18:16,960 --> 01:18:19,519 Speaker 5: caliber player and DJ Turner, and you got a lot 1547 01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:22,960 Speaker 5: of guys that form an extraordinary supporting cast. I mean, 1548 01:18:23,800 --> 01:18:26,679 Speaker 5: these guys, like we talked about earlier, You're not gonna 1549 01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:30,160 Speaker 5: have eleven Pro Bowlers on your offensive a defensive football team. 1550 01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:34,760 Speaker 5: That's that's pipe tream, that's a that's impossible, that's an 1551 01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:39,600 Speaker 5: unrealistic goal or accomplishment. But if you can have, you know, 1552 01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:43,880 Speaker 5: two or three guys that are when you get them 1553 01:18:43,920 --> 01:18:46,559 Speaker 5: on the football field, well better than I thought they were. 1554 01:18:46,840 --> 01:18:49,800 Speaker 5: I mean, we unearthed some some diamonds in the rough 1555 01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:52,840 Speaker 5: here and they can they can really get it done. 1556 01:18:52,880 --> 01:18:56,400 Speaker 5: They can play football. If you every other round, if 1557 01:18:56,439 --> 01:18:59,640 Speaker 5: you get a solid player, you're gonna have a good 1558 01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:02,519 Speaker 5: football team. If you do that two or three drafts 1559 01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:04,920 Speaker 5: in a row, you're gonna be really good. You're gonna 1560 01:19:04,920 --> 01:19:07,400 Speaker 5: be a playoff caliber team. You're gonna be a playoff 1561 01:19:07,479 --> 01:19:09,160 Speaker 5: caliber team for more than one season. 1562 01:19:09,960 --> 01:19:12,040 Speaker 2: All Right, we're gonna take a time out. When we 1563 01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:15,400 Speaker 2: come back, we'll talk about one of the most remarkable 1564 01:19:15,520 --> 01:19:18,439 Speaker 2: players that will come to town with the Arizona Cardinals. 1565 01:19:18,640 --> 01:19:21,280 Speaker 2: This Sunday, you're listening to the Bengals pep Rally Show 1566 01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:24,479 Speaker 2: presented by Just Bear Chicken live from the on the 1567 01:19:24,560 --> 01:19:28,559 Speaker 2: Rhine Eatery here in downtown Cincinnati.
