13
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: weather forecasts for the week? Gentlemen? One hundred and seventeen

14
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: today and tomorrow. One eighteen is the expected high on Friday. Yeah,

15
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: summer is here and it's officially summertime for the Cardinals.

16
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: Many camp is done, The veterans are gone, the rookies

17
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: they're still around for a few more days, but the

18
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: next time all players will be all together training camp

19
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: in six short weeks and would that in mind be

20
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: trained you played, we did not. You've got six weeks

21
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: off the message that you hope these Cardinals players remember

22
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: as they enjoy some much deserved downtime. Stay in shape,

23
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: don't don't think stupid. Simple, that's truly. Yeah, yeah, that's

24
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: really what it is, because the only thing that you

25
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: can do now is put yourself in a position to

26
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: get in trouble with law, to get in trouble at home,

27
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: you know, get out of shape. You know, overeat, you know,

28
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: do things that you know are not going to be

29
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: conducive for you to be the best football lad that

30
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: you can possibly be. So yeah, just don't do anything stupid.

31
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,559
Speaker 1: Don't over eat, don't do anything stupid. As a former

32
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: Cardinals head coach once said, don't be the guy. As

33
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: far as between now and when everyone reconvenes in late July.

34
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: Speaking of minicamp, though, MJ, you were out during those

35
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: three days and even the one day that we had

36
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: access during OTA's your biggest takeaway seeing these players up

37
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: close for the first time in an offseason since twenty nineteen.

38
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:28,639
Speaker 1: Takeaways just the temple of the practice, the communication, how

39
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: they were you know, running to each different drill. There

40
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: were different drills we got a chance to see in

41
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: training camp at least last year, so in a lot

42
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: of new faces, and clearly I thought that Kingsbury, you know,

43
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,839
Speaker 1: he didn't spend as much time with Kyler Murray as

44
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: he has in the past they've been attached at the hip.

45
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 1: It was more Cam Turner. Cliff was walking around to

46
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: different position groups. He was on the defensive side of

47
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 1: the field, So I thought he you know, clearly, after

48
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,399
Speaker 1: the season you do a self evaluation and we all

49
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: have bosses, and it just seems like he was more

50
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: being a head coach and just the play caller and

51
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: obviously attached to a hip with Kyler Murray. Some quick

52
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 1: news items as far as mini camp is concerned Bird

53
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: Gang as expected, Chandler Jones Jordan Hicks did not attend.

54
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: Fully expect those two players to arrive and be there

55
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: for training camp. Then the health of this team is

56
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 1: very very good, according to Kingsbury, and he did have

57
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: a brief updates on Dennis Gardeck saying he has quote

58
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: ahead of schedule. What that means, who knows, but I

59
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,519
Speaker 1: don't expect him to be available of the start of

60
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: training camp, and we'll just have to wait and see

61
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: what happens once the regular season begins. A lot of attention, though,

62
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: will be placed as always on the starting quarterback. Sorry,

63
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: be trans that's just that's where we are. We know

64
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: that the game is won in the trenches, but we

65
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 1: all talk about the quarterbacks in the offseason. Let's touch

66
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: on Kyler Murray here. Had a chance to hear from

67
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: him going into year three. He was asked where he

68
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: wants to grow the most entering twenty twenty one. I

69
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: think all aspects of the game, but a leadership, taking

70
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: care of the ball being better as far as accuracy,

71
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: just the whole game. There's no one in this building

72
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 1: or that watches the game that's a bigger critic of

73
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: themselves or of me than I am. So I know

74
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: what I need to get better at when we get

75
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: out throw on the field. I planned to show you

76
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 1: know I grew in those areas interesting as far as

77
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: how he ordered those different areas, leadership being first and

78
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 1: foremost be trade. We know Kyler works hard, we know

79
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: he is skilled, but that leadership aspect. Going into year three,

80
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: everyone wants to take their cues from the quarterback The

81
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: thing about Kyler Murray, He's in a unique position as

82
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: to where he's a guy that, even though he may

83
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: not be the smallest, he's a guy that has been

84
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,799
Speaker 1: that guy for the last two plus years, and now

85
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: he's coming into his third year. Everything is going to

86
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: start to come together for Kyler Murray. You start talking

87
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 1: about off the field maturity, you talk about on the

88
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: field maturity, all these things, I believe in year three

89
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: are going to all come to a crescendo for Kyler

90
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: Murray and you're going to see the best of what

91
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: he is supposed to be in the NFL. I don't

92
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: think you can compare him to a lot of different

93
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,359
Speaker 1: quarterbacks because he just doesn't play like many quarterbacks that

94
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 1: we've seen. So whatever his best is going to be,

95
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: we're going to start to see that now going forward,

96
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 1: and hopefully that equals a lot of winds and playing

97
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: in the postseason for the Cardinals. I think we've seen progress,

98
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: you know, not so much from a wind total, you know,

99
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: obviously five to eight, but you know, you look at

100
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 1: his numbers last year occurring to Pro Football Focus, he

101
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 1: was twelfth overall and he was third in the Russian

102
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: game at his position. Now, it looks like when you

103
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: watch some of the film, the majority of his interceptions

104
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: have come throwing over the middle. Now we think that

105
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: Rodney Hudson's going to be able to protect him make

106
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: the calls. Hopefully they can have a U shape where

107
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: he can step up. You know, if we watched Drew

108
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: Brees throughout his career, he we're on his tip his

109
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 1: toes to throw the ball. So that's something that Murray

110
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 1: And again it's a ten to nineteen yards and that

111
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: should be your money down, that should be your money

112
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: zoned where you can move the sticks. So again a

113
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: work in progress, but I like what he's saying. He's

114
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: taking responsibility knowing and one thing he's really said a

115
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 1: lot since the season is over, when he was doing

116
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: the media tour during Super Bowl Week the little things,

117
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: and that's the false start penalties. You know, he doesn't

118
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: control clock management, personnel coming on the field, but there's

119
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,599
Speaker 1: little things where you don't want to be behind the sticks.

120
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: Everything matters what you do leading up to game day

121
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: and obviously what happens on game day, and as far

122
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: as the middle of the field, you hope that with

123
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: the addition of an AJ Green and perhaps maybe even

124
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 1: Arondell More that that middle of the field is a

125
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: little bit more open to where that intermediate passing game

126
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: which we hear so much that Murray needs to get

127
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 1: better at that, that improves. Speaking of the wide receivers,

128
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: though Kyler Murray asked specifically about what Green might be

129
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: able to do for this offense. I expect I did

130
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 1: have a big year. I know, you know, I know

131
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: a lot of people are sleep on him. I know

132
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: a lot of things have been said about you know, him,

133
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: maybe not be on to do it anymore. Whatever, We

134
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: don't really care about that, you know, ignore all that.

135
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: You know, I'm glad he's on the team. I mean,

136
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 1: we have a great receiver room, more weapons than I

137
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: can ask for. And considering what we've heard and what's

138
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: been reported about other quarterbacks around the league, be trained

139
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: to hear the Cardinals starting quarterbacks say, quote, more weapons

140
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: than I can ask for, Happy quarterback, Happy team. Hopefully

141
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: success on Sundays. And that's what you want. You wanted

142
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 1: to have that synergy. You want to have that feeling

143
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: of everybody is on the same page and understand what

144
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: each other needs in order to have that that kind

145
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: of relationship. I think it can only help but to

146
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: be successful. And I think for Kyler, he's finally in

147
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: that situation where he's he's wanted more weapons. He's got

148
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 1: the weapons now and so now it's all on him.

149
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 1: And I think that's exactly how he wanted and I

150
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: think that's how the front office wanted to where now

151
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: it's just a matter of going out and making the

152
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: plays and doing what you need to do to be

153
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: successful because they feel like they have the weapons, they

154
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: feel like they have the personnel to go out and win.

155
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: Now there's not going to be many excuses. So if

156
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: the winds don't come, then they know directly where to

157
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: place the boat. Yeah, and it was you know, they

158
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: posted a video where he was in Dallas working out

159
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: aj Green and just watching him in the open portion

160
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: or practice, which we can discuss similar route runner to

161
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: what I thought. You know, fifty fifty balls, he's going

162
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: to be on the outside. You know, Hopp will be

163
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,959
Speaker 1: on the left side. They could move them around a

164
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: little bit. Rondel Moore Christian Kirkby in the slot, so

165
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: that's where you're possibly that ten to nineteen yards. But

166
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: on the fifty fifty balls. He still tracks the ball

167
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 1: very well, and the fact that he mentioned him tells

168
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: me that, you know, more time together, more production during

169
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: the season, well, and you hope that it doesn't take

170
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: half the season, which Kingsbury brought up with that chemistry

171
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: between Murray and d Hop that if you get this

172
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: work now in the offseason, that that chemistry is ahead

173
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: of the pace. Maybe not so much week one, maybe

174
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: a couple of games under the everyone's belt, and then

175
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,079
Speaker 1: all of a sudden things are working more smoothly as

176
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 1: far as the number one wide receiver on one side

177
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: and maybe one B on the other side, because Aj

178
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: Green he's always been the guy, and now all of

179
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 1: a sudden he's got some help on the other side. Yeah,

180
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: I and everything you hear, including the new wide receivers

181
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: coach Sean Jefferson, he's really been impressed with Keyshawn Johnson.

182
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: So all of a sudden, you got depth behind AJ Green.

183
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: You have depth behind Christian Kirk or Ron del Moore.

184
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: Now we'll see who the depth is when it comes

185
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: to Hop normally plays the majority of the game. More

186
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: on Kyler Murray and his availability during Mini camp. I

187
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 1: think perhaps the best thing that he had to say,

188
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: and certainly it was not about leaving the door open

189
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,839
Speaker 1: for baseball. That was I think more just him having

190
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: some fun. But he did say something when asked about

191
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: last season and how this season finished, specifically those last

192
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: seven games, which kind of coincid added when he hurt

193
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: that shoulder, specifically Week eleven at Seattle in the first quarter,

194
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 1: Carlos Dunlap lands on Murray hurts the shoulder, and Roley

195
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 1: the offense wasn't the same over those final seven games.

196
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray asked and discussed and had some interesting things

197
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 1: to say looking back at the twenty twenty regular season.

198
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: You know, my legs should be a luxury, and it

199
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,559
Speaker 1: kind of wasn't like that last year. It was kind

200
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: of me having to run for us and once you know,

201
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: my shoulder was banged up or whatever, and I wasn't

202
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: trying to put myself out there and take those hits

203
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,959
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. We kind of took a law,

204
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: you know, hit a law. You know, honestly, I think

205
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: it was good for us. You know, I think it

206
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 1: was a lesson for us that, you know, we can't

207
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: be one dimensional. We just got to be better in

208
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 1: all all areas. All aspects of the game. Our colleague

209
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: Kyle Dugard did a great deep dive as far as

210
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: looking at the numbers. First nine games the Cardinals six

211
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: and three, Murray seventeen touchdowns, eight interceptions, six hundred and

212
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 1: four rushing yards, ten rushing touchdowns. The last seven games

213
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: a two and five record, Murray nine touchdowns, four interceptions,

214
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifteen rushing yards, and one rushing touchdown.

215
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, Yes, needs to run, but it should not

216
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: be the catalyst for this offense. MG. It should be

217
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: something that helps supplements the offense. Yeah, I think he's

218
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,719
Speaker 1: made that very clear. This is two years in a

219
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 1: row where he's been banged up towards the end of

220
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: the season. I think he's done a nice job protecting himself.

221
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: But again, it's a luxury and that's why I think

222
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: the Cardinals are excited with the one two punch with

223
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: Chase Emons and James Connor, and you know there's going

224
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: to be times that you know, the pockets going to

225
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: break down, He's gonna have to get some yards. But

226
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: I think he's done a much better job getting out

227
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: of bounds, trying to find the first down. You know,

228
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: playing for the next down versus trying to be a hero.

229
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: But those numbers reflect that he wasn't healthy towards the

230
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: end of the season, be trained too many times. We

231
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 1: saw last season that this offense would get going as

232
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: long as Kyler Murray was running, and that can't happen

233
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: going forward. He can't be the focal point of this offense.

234
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: He can't be the option that gets this team first

235
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 1: downs and touchdowns. Yeah, he's a good, great tool. You

236
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: mentioned it earlier in this segment as far as the

237
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,680
Speaker 1: skill set that he possesses, but he can't be the

238
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: reason that this offense is successful. And you have a

239
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 1: quarterback that's number one on your team in Russian, that's

240
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 1: never going to be a formula for success because that

241
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: means he's taken a lot of shots unnecessarily. And I

242
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: agree with what he said. I'm not sure I really

243
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: liked how he said it, but it is a fact

244
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 1: that you don't want your quarterback having to be the

245
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: primary runner and the guy that leads your team in Russian.

246
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 1: So yes, it is a luxury that you should have.

247
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: And the fact that he's such a good runner, that's great,

248
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,199
Speaker 1: but he still needs to be a guy that delivers

249
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 1: the ball down the field to the weapons that were

250
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: brought on the team in order to take that pressure

251
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: off of Kyler. He's always said, MG, he wants to

252
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 1: be a pocket passer and doesn't feel like he needs

253
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: to run. But last year he did need to run

254
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: for this offense to do what it did. But to

255
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 1: his point, those last seven games, it just wasn't there

256
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 1: for whatever reason. Was it Kyler Murray and his injured shoulder.

257
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: Was the running game overall just not is efficient? Wasn't

258
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: opposing defenses kind of catching up and on the flip

259
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: side of the Cardinals coaching staff slow to reacts and

260
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 1: adjust themselves to the defenses that they were seeing. Well,

261
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: I think it's a combination. I think you hit on

262
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 1: all of them. Now. The thing is, though, like any

263
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 1: young quarterback, they're going to look at their first read,

264
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 1: which would be hop and then you know, hopefully the

265
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: game slows down for him. He can read defenses, and

266
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: I think that's where Hudson's going to help the calls

267
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,679
Speaker 1: with pre snap. But also he's got to stay in

268
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,199
Speaker 1: the pocket a little bit longer and let the play develop.

269
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: And again that's throwing over the middle and if you

270
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: want to work the sidelines and you got aj Green

271
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: and hop and then we'll see these jet sweeps and

272
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 1: these bubble screens with Ron del Moore. So I want

273
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: to I want to be a little bit more patient.

274
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: Easy for me to say when guys are running down

275
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: your neck, but be a little bit more patient. Let

276
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 1: the play develop, and that's where you get the yards

277
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 1: after catch and beatrin. That goes back to the offensive

278
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: love line right with Rodney Hudson and the interior of

279
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: that line providing that cushion, that protection for Kyler Murray.

280
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 1: They've got to set a tone. They've got to come

281
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: with the nasty and be able to check Tyler at

282
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: all calls. In fact that you have a pro bowler

283
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 1: veteran now at the center position that's going to go

284
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: a long way and start in that process. And once

285
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: he gets comfortable in that pocket, now he can deliver

286
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,599
Speaker 1: the ball in the manner that he wants to and

287
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 1: now the receivers can respond by catching the ball in

288
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,280

297

Speaker 1: at the forty and drilled by Simmons at the forty one.

298

Speaker 1: Isaiah Simmons is balling how you do things outside of

299
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: the facility and off the field, like going home, and

300
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: how long you choose to study, what you choose to

301
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: do extra, what you choose to do after practice is over.

302
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: That's something that I've always, you know, done, but you know,

303
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 1: it's just a whole new level when you're a pro,

304
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 1: just because at this level where everybody's physically gifted, everyone's

305
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 1: an athlete, and I feel like where people separate themselves

306
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 1: as the mental aspect of the game. A great lesson

307
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: learned by now second year linebacker Isaiah Simmons. As we

308
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 1: welcome me back here to the Cardinals Red seaber Port,

310
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 1: with you all year long Tuesdays eleven am talking all

311
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: things Arizona Cardinals as we touch on those two young linebackers,

312
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 1: and let's first talk about who we just heard from,

313
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 1: Isaiah Simmons Betrained. We know the struggles that Simmons went

314
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: through a year ago. A lot of that though, I

315
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: think can be penned on the fact that there was

316
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: no offseason, no preseason. But to hear Simmons right there say,

317
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 1: the big thing is, yes, everyone has talent, everyone is big, strong, fast,

318
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 1: But what you do in your downtime, your spare time,

319
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: what separates the good players from the great players is

320
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: that work that you put in, maybe on your own,

321
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: trying to get better mentally, watching film so you can

322
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: play fast on the football field. That's the difference between

323
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: guys that play in the NFL for two or three

324
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: years and the guys that have ten twelve year careers.

325
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: Are you willing to do the extra work? If you

326
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: do what's just required, you're going to be out of

327
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 1: the league in a short period of time. But if

328
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: you're willing to put in the extra work and do

329
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: what everybody else isn't doing, then that's going to give

330
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: you a chance to be great. And I think he's

331
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 1: exactly right. Yeah, there's a lot of big, fast, strong

332
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: guys in the NFL, but what you do between your

333
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 1: ears is going to be what separates the good players

334
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: from the great players, and then the great players from

335
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 1: the legends. And all times, I'm looking forward to see,

336
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 1: you know, his role this year. We know that when

337
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 1: it comes to Zaven Collins, he's pretty much going to

338
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 1: be in the middle, and then you could see him

339
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: line up against a slot receiver. You could see him

340
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: maybe rush the passer, you could see him covering a

341
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,199
Speaker 1: tight end down the field. So you know, again he

342
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 1: was throwing the mixed last year. And according to Vance

343
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 1: Joseph and also Billy Davis, after Week one he showed

344
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 1: him provement throughout the season as snapcount went up and

345
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 1: he made a couple big plays against a really good

346
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,239
Speaker 1: quarterback in Russell Wilson. So I think there's a lot

347
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 1: to build on. But once again, he needs an entire offseason,

348
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,159
Speaker 1: and he needs a preseason. And now he'll be lined

349
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: up with a rookie in Zaven Collins. Those two, Collins

350
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 1: and Simmons, the team's first round draft picks in each

351
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,879
Speaker 1: of the past two years. Are now sets to play

352
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:49,360
Speaker 1: inside linebacker, and it's that pairing that, according to Simmons,

353
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: can be Sky's the limits as far as the talent.

354
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 1: But to what he was saying talking about Isaiah Simmons,

355
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: it's the mental aspect and learning the playbook Vans. Joseph though,

356
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: can have a hand in that's because as complicated as

357
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: defenses can be, as far as that playbook gets concerned, well,

358
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: he needs to know. Joseph though, needs to know that

359
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 1: he needs to make things a little bit simpler for

360
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: these young players, at least at the onset. I think

361
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: as a coach, you have to understand it's going to

362
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: be some bad downs, but also on a flip side,

363
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: it's gonna be played that those two guys can make

364
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: that other guys can't make. It's our job as a

365
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 1: staff mine, especially to put players first in scheme second,

366
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: you know, and to let those guys unlock those bodies

367
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: and just play. You know, so when you're playing with

368
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: two young backers, and I did it in San fran

369
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: We had Pat Willis and Navarral Bowman when they were

370
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 1: young guys, and you know, we kind of simplify things

371
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: and allow those guys are running hit. Now. I was

372
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: when Joseph said that Beatran, I had forgotten that he

373
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,679
Speaker 1: was in San Francisco Joseph the DB's coach, with Patrick

374
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 1: Willis and Navarrel Bowman. But we've seen this now San Francisco, Seattle,

375
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay last year having athletic, young, skilled inside linebackers

376
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 1: that never ever leave the field, and the Cardinals helped

377
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 1: to duplicate that with Simmons and Collins. Yeah, you also

378
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 1: saw that Carolina as well, And that's become how defenses

379
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: are built. They're built from the inside out. And you

380
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 1: start with a stout defensive line. You've got two playmaking

381
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,880
Speaker 1: linebackers that never come off the field, as you say,

382
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: and then the secondary you let those guys go out

383
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 1: and do what they do. And I think to have

384
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:28,199
Speaker 1: these two tall, athletic young players, it's going to be

385
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 1: interesting to see their development and see how well they're

386
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: able to pick up this scheme and really flourish in

387
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:38,439
Speaker 1: this scheme, because I think their level of progress is

388
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: going to be what ultimately determines the success of the

389
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: defensive side. Yes, you have some playmakers up front, but

390
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 1: when you start talking about the middle of that defense,

391
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 1: it's imperative that those two young men are able to

392
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: man that position and really hold down the middle of

393
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: the field. We've talked about it. A lot be trained,

394
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: but a lot is going to be pointed at those

395
00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: two young players. But there's some veterans surrounding them, the Jones, J. J. Watt,

396
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 1: Jordan Phillips, boot to Baker, Malcolm Butler. How can those

397
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,679
Speaker 1: players help that progress maybe a little bit faster and

398
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: this defense play up to par that we all anticipated

399
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 1: to be maybe earlier than we maybe is expected because

400
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,119
Speaker 1: you've got two very young inside linebackers. The thing that

401
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: the veterans can do is they can be that coming

402
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 1: presence for them. They can tell them during time outs,

403
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 1: hey man, just calm down, let the game come to you.

404
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: And they're going to be leaning on those veterans heavily

405
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 1: for the mental approach to the game. How they're able

406
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 1: to process the game, how you go from the first

407
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,679
Speaker 1: quarter to halftime, how you come out of halftime, and

408
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: then how do you make that last push when you're

409
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 1: in two minute drills and you're having to make calls

410
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 1: and you've got a lot of stuff going on, and

411
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:47,920
Speaker 1: you've got to say a lot and you've got to

412
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: see a lot and do a lot. They're going to

413
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 1: have to rely on those guys to one do their

414
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 1: jobs first, but to also bring them back to earth

415
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: and just remind them, hey, you're doing a great job.

416
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 1: Just breathe this out and relax and go out there

417
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 1: and play the game that you've known how to play

418
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: since you're real a little kids. As coach Joseph said, MJ,

419
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 1: there are going to be bumps in the road. Let's

420
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 1: just hope that the bumps aren't too hard and there

421
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 1: are few and far between. And hopefully, if there are

422
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,919
Speaker 1: some bumps, that those mistakes that are made aren't repeated

423
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 1: during the course of weeks and that they're corrected easily

424
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: or I should say corrected immediately. Well, they're gonna be

425
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 1: going against, you know, some good offenses. You know, I

426
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: don't know if Kirk Cousins gets to credit. That's the

427
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,160
Speaker 1: Cardinal's home opener. Obviously, Ryan Tannehills found a spot there

428
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,640
Speaker 1: in Tennessee. So I think we'll look at the first

429
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 1: month of the season. There are going to be some

430
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: growing pains, but you know, the only way you're going

431
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 1: to get better is to go out there and play

432
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 1: you need reps in practice, but also when you go

433
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 1: back to the film, you can correct those mistakes. But

434
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 1: that first month of the season is going to be

435
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: very interesting. Just how much they can retain and how

436
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: much production we see in the first four games. Well,

437
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 1: it goes back to how important OTAs in mini camp

438
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 1: are this offseason. Even the rookie staying over for a

439
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 1: week two weeks to get some more hands on work,

440
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: not maybe just in the classroom, but out on the

441
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 1: field as well. I think that will go along way.

442
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 1: At least that's the hope, the anticipation, that is what happens. Yeah,

443
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 1: and we didn't get a chance to talk to as

444
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 1: a ton last year. Of course we got him on

445
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: Zoom and then you know maybe during the year we

446
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: got him in another time. But just the maturity factor,

447
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: you could see, you know, he's confident when he steps

448
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 1: on the field. Just his size, he's a tall drink

449
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 1: of water, but you could see his comfort level with

450
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: his defense. And you know I had asked him about that,

451
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 1: and it's night and day. For a year ago. At

452
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: this time, he was swimming, and I think a lot

453
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 1: of guys were because there are only Zoom meetings and

454
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: then you get to camp and all of a sudden,

455
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 1: you got to learn a couple of different positions, even

456
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: though they wanted to slow play him at week side linebacker.

457
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: Before we hear from simmons b train, where did you

458
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 1: see Simmons maybe make the biggest jump or the biggest

459
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,160
Speaker 1: progress from that Week one game at San Francisco that's

460
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: always going to stand out to the Sunday night game

461
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 1: against the Seahawks and in the end of the regular season,

462
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 1: or we did see Simmons's snap count dramatically increase confidence.

463
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: I think he got confident as the season went on.

464
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: He was able to make a few plays, and once

465
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 1: he was able to make those plays, then you start

466
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,959
Speaker 1: to see him really settle down and that you can

467
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 1: see the game start to slow down for him. And

468
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 1: I keep going back to the eyes. When you're an

469
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: inside linebacker, your eyes are going to be your biggest asset,

470
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,479
Speaker 1: and you got to be able to focus in and

471
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 1: lock in on what you need to read in order

472
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 1: to react and go out and make plays. Nobody's ever

473
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: going to question his ability and his ability to get

474
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 1: from one place to another in a short period of time.

475
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 1: But if he's thinking that's going to slow him down,

476
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 1: and maybe he doesn't make those plays that he was

477
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: able to make once the season got to the later stages.

478
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: And I think once once he was able to slow

479
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,199
Speaker 1: that game down, you saw his athleticism take over and

480
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: he became a different type of player. Played in all

481
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: sixteen games last season. Talking about Isaiah Simmons seven starts,

482
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 1: certainly that number is expected to jump dramatically here in

483
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one because as we've talked about that second

484
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: year in the same system. Here Simmons talking about his

485
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: comfort level now with this defense, I would say I've

486
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 1: made very large strides with my comfort just being able

487
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: to learn the system more. And this offseason I really

488
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 1: focused in on, you know, tuning in to the fine

489
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: details of multiple positions, you know, taking it upon myself

490
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: not to only learn my position, but the people around me,

491
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 1: just so I cannot only be another coach on the

492
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,880
Speaker 1: field and help people out, but as well as it'll

493
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: help me play faster, just norm where everybody else is

494
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: going to be. We heard Coach Davis on a recent

495
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: episode of The Big Red Rage so that they trained

496
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: Simmons in six different positions last year. MJ three inside

497
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 1: linebacker positions, slot corner, and two safety positions, and now

498
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,119
Speaker 1: Simmons is looking to not add to that total, but

499
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 1: at least be familiar with everyone and their role on

500
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 1: the football field so he can be a better football player. Yeah,

501
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: I mean we didn't really see him rush the passer.

502
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,959
Speaker 1: Now obviously, you know they'll have Chandler Jones, you know,

503
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,719
Speaker 1: going into the season, and then you'll have Marcus Golden

504
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: and Devon Kennard, who I thought did a nice job

505
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: last year. And I'll give Cannard a lot of credit

506
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 1: because a lot of people looked at that cap number,

507
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 1: but I was told he was here here every single day.

508
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 1: Maybe co would affected him a little bit different. But

509
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, you got some pass rushers

510
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: and there's there's a you know, a player too where

511
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 1: you can let him rush the passer. I know he's

512
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,640
Speaker 1: probably going to drop back into coverage covering slot receivers.

513
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 1: As you mentioned, I thought deve Andre Campbell did a

514
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: nice job. They only gave up two touchdowns a tight

515
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: ends last year, where that wasn't the case the previous year.

516
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: So again, if they trained him to six different positions

517
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,879
Speaker 1: last year, I think he's going to be possibly in

518
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 1: those six different positions based on the opponent down in distance.

519
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 1: We heard coach Joseph collinm in a racer ahead of

520
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,879
Speaker 1: last season, and I think they're looking for Simmons to

521
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: a race some mistakes heading into this season and be

522
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: a focal point along with David Collins in the middle

523
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: of that defense. Third gang. Looking for tickets this season,

524
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 1: The Cardinals are offering to protect the nest ticket plans.

525
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 1: Each plan features four games, including primetime matchups. For more information,

526
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 1: but asy Cardinals dot com slash tickets or call six

527
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: zero two three seven nine zero one zero two. We

528
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 1: have had half time here on the Cardinals Red Sea Report.

529
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 1: When we come back, more discussion about the defense, much

530
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 1: to the much to the liking, I should say of

531
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,360
Speaker 1: bertrand Berry. That's straight ahead here on the Arizona Cardinals

532
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 1: Radio network. Brady gets a staff from Andrews Falcuts trying

533
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 1: to get dinner accepted. Coming back up the field, it's

534
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 1: Robert offered, offered forty thirty twenty fifteen ten five, and

535
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: he will walk into the internal at eighty one yard

536
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 1: fix six. He knows if he's healthy man, he's a

537
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: big party's defense and when you're speaking about leaders and guys,

538
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: that's pushing guys man. He is on top of our

539
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:06,199
Speaker 1: listens for leaders. Let's hope that happens this season. The

540
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 1: third season for Robert Alford and an Arizona Cardinals uniform,

541
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: and to dates, we have yet to see Alford on

542
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: a football field play a game in an Arizona Cardinals uniform.

543
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,160
Speaker 1: As we walcome back to the Red Sea Report, Craig Griol,

544
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 1: Mike Jarecki, and bertram Berry as the second half begins

545
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: here talking about that cornerback position first and foremost. Though

546
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: Robert Offord two years ago betrayed it was a broken leg,

547
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 1: last year it was a torn peck. I've maintained though

548
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 1: that each of those off seasons, each of those training camps,

549
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: you can make an argument Robert Alford was the best

550
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: cornerback on the team, playing the best. We just haven't

551
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,880
Speaker 1: seen it. And by all accounts OTA's and mini camp,

552
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: he has picked up right where he's left off and

553
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,639
Speaker 1: he certainly has a chip on his shoulder looking to

554
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 1: prove everyone wrong that he is. Yes, he has not

555
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: lost a step and is that guy the Cardinals side

556
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 1: several years back and I can even relate to because

557
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: there was a stent in my career where three straight

558
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: years I had season ended injury. So I know the

559
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: frustration of not being able to be on the field,

560
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: and you do have that chip on the shoulder, and

561
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: it's not necessarily geared towards anybody specifically, but it's just

562
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: geared towards people who may have said, hey, you're finished,

563
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: maybe you need to do something else, and maybe this

564
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 1: isn't for you anymore. You just want to go out

565
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 1: there and prove it to them, but most importantly to yourself,

566
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:29,879
Speaker 1: because that's the person that you have to look in

567
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:31,439
Speaker 1: the mirror every single day and when you put your

568
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,399
Speaker 1: head on the pillow, that's the person that you have

569
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 1: to make sure that you're at peace with and say, hey,

570
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: did I do everything that I can to make sure

571
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: I got the most out of today? And so everybody's

572
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 1: rooting for him. I think he's going to have a

573
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 1: bounce back year and it is going to be much

574
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: needed because the secondary is going to be a little

575
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: bit of a concern for the Cardinals heading into twenty

576
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: twenty one. You know, I like Offord's makeup. I mean

577
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 1: he looks, I mean he looks the party on. I

578
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 1: mean last year him and Patrick were working out and

579
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: listened at ten eighty six. He's physical with the line

580
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. You know, it's gonna be an interesting will

581
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,479
Speaker 1: help plenty of time to chew on it. You know,

582
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 1: who's covering Julio Jones, Who's covering A J. Brown. But

583
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 1: I like the fact that you know, you know, the

584
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 1: Cardinals had to release him and then he resigned the

585
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 1: next day and he basically told them paraphrasing, here, I'll

586
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: play for whatever it is. You've paid me X amount

587
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: of dollars when I got here injured. It a part

588
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: of the game. And one thing that I really liked

589
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: about Alford, you know, be train can attest it is

590
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: sometimes when you go on IR, you come in and

591
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 1: rehab and you're not around the team a lot. He

592
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: was on the practice field, he was in the meeting,

593
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: so he was here the entire season and trying to

594
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 1: help some of the young guys, and obviously that can

595
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: go a long way with Marco Wilson and Tay Gowen

596
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: and some of these other guys. So I like where

597
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: his mind is and they're going to need him this year.

598
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 1: I mean, they need Robert Alford. Again, you have to

599
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: have backups, but they're gonna need his physicality and the

600
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: way he's able to press the line of scrimmage. Be

601
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: trying to pickyback off of NJ's comments. How difficult is

602
00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 1: that for a player that is injured, maybe out for

603
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks or an offer's case and in

604
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 1: your case, done for the season. Yet you're still around.

605
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: You still want to be a part of the team

606
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 1: and do whatever you can to help assist. It's really

607
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 1: difficult to be a leader. You can be a voice

608
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: that can help specific guys, but as the team leader,

609
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: you just can't be. You can't you can't lead the

610
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 1: club from the tub. And that's one of those old

611
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: agesms that you will see far tool here and it

612
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 1: just rings true. When you are not on the field

613
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: and helping your teammates, then they don't consider you to

614
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: be there, and it's unfortunate. But I think the veterans

615
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 1: that that really understand the asset that he could be,

616
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: they're going to be the ones asking him questions and

617
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: when the young guys finally figure it out, they can

618
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: he could be a very resourceful tool that can be

619
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 1: used to pick his brain and see how he would

620
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: handle different situations. Because for Robert, I mean, I think

621
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,479
Speaker 1: him seeing the game from a different perspective actually going

622
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 1: to help him on the field. Offered, to his own description,

623
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 1: said it was devastating to suffer two season ending injuries

624
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: in back to back years, but at no point did

625
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: he ever consider retirement. Not at all, Manna, I'm not

626
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 1: ready to handle him up at all. So you always

627
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: gonna have dark times, man, in anything that you do.

628
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 1: I mean, if you love what you do, I mean

629
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 1: you're gonna use that to motivate you. And that's what

630
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 1: I use these past two years as get better at

631
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 1: studying film. Something that I could get out of it

632
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 1: that was positive for me. And it's easy to see

633
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 1: and here offered on the football field when we were

634
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 1: able to watch the open portion of OTAs or Mini

635
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: camp offered, is very vocal and he is certainly I

636
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 1: wouldn't say going full speed, but might be one of

637
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: those guys maybe going a little bit faster than everyone

638
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: else because he's eager and anxious to get out there

639
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,959
Speaker 1: and show what he can do. And according to his

640
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: teammate Buddha Baker, Well, he showed a lot during these

641
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 1: past six or two weeks. Those of you who do

642
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 1: not know Robert Alford, he's a big talker, a guy

643
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: who loves the game, a guy who you know last

644
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: year and would still go to meetings, would still go

645
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: to practice and watch practice and help young guys out

646
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: or help you know, older guys out and seeing things.

647
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 1: So now that he's on the field and I know

648
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 1: he's very excited, he still looks like the great Robert Alford,

649
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 1: fresh Robert Alford. And that is key, MJ. Because, as

650
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: Batrain pointed out earlier, you look at the cornerback dep

651
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: Malcolm Butler, Byron Murphy, Robert Alford, there's three experienced guys

652
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 1: and then well you've got Marco Wilson and te Gwan

653
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: too young players. And then the added dark was Denard.

654
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 1: So four veterans. But the question is you know that

655
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: young talent out there, as far as Gallan and Wilson,

656
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 1: can they make a jump forward to where this team

657
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 1: is not looking for cornerback help come training camp. Well,

658
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 1: the way I look at it is, I mean, how

659
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,160
Speaker 1: many corners are you gonna keep? Is it four or five?

660
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 1: I think, you know, I think the Cardinals will at

661
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: a tight end and they could look at a backup

662
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: running back. You never say you're satisfied, but I think

663
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: they like what they have in that room. Right now.

664
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: You've got a mixture of young guys and we're going

665
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 1: to get into Byron Murphy because according to Vans, he

666
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 1: was their best corner last year. And nothing against Patrick

667
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 1: Peterson and some of the other guys out there, but yeah,

668
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's you know, I think Byron Murphy

669
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 1: has been throwing the mix. But the fact, as he

670
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,720
Speaker 1: told us, he can play inside and outside, which Marco

671
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 1: Wilson can do that, Denier can do that, so it

672
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 1: gives us a flexibility. But you know, Alford to me

673
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 1: is an outside guy and then Malcolm Butler's an outside guy.

674
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: So and all of a sudden, you can, you know,

675
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: utilize their skill set because Malcolm Butler's got a ton

676
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 1: of starts in his career, good at press coverage at

677
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: the line, and the way Alford's built, he should be

678
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 1: able to, you know, hold his own there on the outside. Well,

679
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: let's touch on Murphy. It was a question about the

680
00:33:55,560 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 1: cornerback depth, and immediately Vans Joseph singled out one player

681
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 1: before talking about anyone else in that cornerbacks room. I

682
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 1: think it starts with Murphy, you know. I mean, he's

683
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: been the main stay for three years, but he's played

684
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,280
Speaker 1: a lot of snaps and you can see its growth.

685
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,920
Speaker 1: He's so much more comfortable. He's growing into his body,

686
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 1: he's working, he knows the system. He can be a

687
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 1: special player for us, and he can be one of

688
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: our better players on defense. Last season, Murphy matched the

689
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 1: team high with eight passes defense. He was part of

690
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 1: the game winners at San Francisco and against the Eagles

691
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: B Train. He is, I think, still young, but I

692
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,399
Speaker 1: guess when you're getting into year three and we're talking

693
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: about going into four and five that that's not a

694
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,919
Speaker 1: lot of time. But in the NFL, that's a long

695
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 1: long time for most guys, that's a career, and so

696
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: it's time. It's time for him to take that next step.

697
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:48,720
Speaker 1: And you have a certain amount of time to before

698
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 1: organizations and the league as the whole start to categorize you.

699
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: And I think for Byron, this is the time to

700
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 1: really start to separate himself and become one of those

701
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 1: top flight cornerbacks. And it's not now then, it never

702
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: will be in you will forever be a guy that

703
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: is situational. And I don't think that he thinks of

704
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 1: himself that way. The Cardinals don't look at him in

705
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 1: that way. And I think it's just a matter of

706
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 1: him going out and making sure that he leads no

707
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 1: doubt that he can be a top flight corner and

708
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 1: a guy that can be counted on each and every

709
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: play to hold down whatever assignment. He's been given same

710
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 1: draft class as Kyler Murray. Yet we talk about Murray

711
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 1: going into year three, how about Murphy mj going into

712
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 1: year three. Yeah, I think Sky's a limit. I mean he,

713
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,319
Speaker 1: like Vans has said, he was thrown there from day one.

714
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 1: He's got a ton of reps. I mean I always

715
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,399
Speaker 1: go back to a couple of years ago. He's covering

716
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,799
Speaker 1: Julio Jones and that's not an easy matchup. And maybe

717
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 1: he'll get a chance to cover him in Week one.

718
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, as b Train said, really the

719
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 1: average career for an NFL player is three years. But

720
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 1: he takes care of his body. You could see he

721
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 1: works out a lot in the off season. Based on

722
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,400
Speaker 1: a social media so you know, some guys want to

723
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: be good, some guys want to be great. I think

724
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 1: he wants to be great, but you've got to go

725
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: through the process first. We'll know more as this team

726
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: gets into training camp as far as the depth and

727
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 1: are they satisfied with the depth at cornerback. But again

728
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,320
Speaker 1: I'll go back to Malcolm Butler, Robert Alford, Darkus de

729
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,239
Speaker 1: Art and Byer Murphy. Those are four players with some

730
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,799
Speaker 1: solid experience. And then the question becomes does a Marco

731
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,399
Speaker 1: Wilson or take Awan take that step and say, hey,

732
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 1: you know, don't forget about me as well. We know

733
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna have a role on special teams talking about

734
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: those young players, but they can they play corner as well.

00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray's legs. But how about Chase Edmonds and James Connor.

742
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,040
Speaker 1: That's straight ahead, It's the Cardinals Red Sea Report on

743
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals. Right, you're not working. It's a run

744
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 1: play right side, big whole. Edmonds twenty five ten five touchdown,

745
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: the inside zone being one and Chase Edmonds found the

746
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:19,240
Speaker 1: hole into the Hall's baby, gets it to Connor, sweeps

747
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 1: the left side, got a block at the ten, Connor

748
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 1: to the five. Coto the touchdown. James Cotter explosives. Just

749
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 1: the weapons that we have, Chase doing this thing already,

750
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 1: and so you know, watching film, I'm like, man, just

751
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 1: du he can he can ball, and I want to,

752
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 1: you know, learn from him, be a part of it,

753
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,359
Speaker 1: get to work with him. You know, ain't no telling,

754
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 1: I can't predicting with him, but I know what I

755
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,320
Speaker 1: can guarantee. I'm gonna come in here and work the

756
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 1: day in and day out from my head down to grind.

757
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm meant it for the long cast.

758
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:50,360
Speaker 1: So seventeen game season, I'm looking forward to it. Chase Edmonds,

759
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 1: James Connor that one two punch in the backfield. You

760
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,720
Speaker 1: heard from Connor there during his introductory press conference signing

761
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: with the Cardinals after four seas with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

762
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 1: And now to see what Connor can do alongside at

763
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds. I don't think, MJ We're going to see

764
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 1: one running back get the bulk of the carries. I

765
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 1: think a lot of it is going to do in

766
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: part to kind of see maybe ride the hot hand,

767
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 1: if you will. But I do think because Edmonds and

768
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: Connor do things differently, and they're two different kind of

769
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 1: running backs, that there is a way to get these

770
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 1: two enough carriers to one where they're both satisfied and

771
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,399
Speaker 1: in two they're both effective. You look at Chase five

772
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 1: nine two ten, you look at James Connor. He wears

773
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:37,640
Speaker 1: number six six one two thirty three. So I do think,

774
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,359
Speaker 1: you know, I think Chase Edmunds will be your base

775
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 1: offense back, but on a change of pace and then

776
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: short guardage situations, that's where Connor is going to come in.

777
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 1: And that's why they you know, have invested in the

778
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 1: offensive line making the trade for Rodney Hudson. I mean,

779
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 1: this team wants to run the football, winning the line

780
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,880
Speaker 1: of scrimmage, but at some point, you know, if this

781
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:57,840
Speaker 1: team can gonna lead in the fourth quarter, Connors the

782
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,200
Speaker 1: perfect back to kind of drain the claw. I can

783
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 1: move the sticks and all that, But I think it's

784
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: going to be a one two punch, but I do

785
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 1: think Chase will get more touches because I think he's

786
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 1: more effective in the passing game too. He started only

787
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 1: two games last season. Talking about Chase Edmonds average four

788
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:15,319
Speaker 1: point six yards per carry. He's going to begin into

789
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 1: every opportunity this season be trained to be that guy.

790
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: He knows it. Now it's the up to him to

791
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: kind of go out and execute it really is. And

792
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,400
Speaker 1: I think he's waited for this opportunity, and he always

793
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 1: felt that he could be this type of back, and

794
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:33,960
Speaker 1: they're going to give him that opportunity. And I love

795
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 1: the versatility that you guys are spoken about between he

796
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 1: and James Conner, and they are two different backs, and

797
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 1: it makes your offense that much more diverse INGI and

798
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: you can do different things when each guy is in

799
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 1: the backfield. So I think there's going to be times

800
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 1: where you see them both in the backfield. And I

801
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 1: think when you start talking about the passing game, of

802
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 1: both can catch the ball out of the backfield, so

803
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:58,600
Speaker 1: that that's not going to be a big issue. And

804
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,280
Speaker 1: it's just a out of what play suits what person

805
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,799
Speaker 1: and and what guy is playing at a high level.

806
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,840
Speaker 1: You don't want to take a guy outlet's having success.

807
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:12,839
Speaker 1: So this just gives you a two more options if

808
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,439
Speaker 1: you will, if you're coach Kingsbury and you're Kyler Murray

809
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 1: as far as weapons to get the ball too. And

810
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 1: we know that you know Kyler Murray doesn't get under center,

811
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 1: and you know third and two, third and three, fourth

812
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 1: and one. Yeah, you don't have to run that read option.

813
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 1: You don't have to be in the pistol. You can

814
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 1: just hand the ball off and you can directly snap

815
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: it to one of these guys. But I think Connor

816
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: is going to be their shortyardage guy. And to be

817
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: Train's point about catching the ball out of the backfield.

818
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: Last season, Edmonds fifty three catches. Connor has averaged forty

819
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 1: one catches of the past three seasons. So both very

820
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 1: capable in that parts of the running back running back

821
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 1: game as far as not just running with the football

822
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: but catching the football as well. The man in charge

823
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: of the running backs, James Saxon, last week on The

824
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:59,280
Speaker 1: Big Red Rage, talked about Chase Edmonds and getting that starts.

825
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 1: As far is now, the ball will be in his

826
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,800
Speaker 1: hands more often than not. Probably one of the smartest

827
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,320
Speaker 1: guys we've ever been around. The guys not only a

828
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: phenomenal above the next person and just a personable human.

829
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: He's an excellent athlete, and the guy's got it's self conscious,

830
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: it's just that just looses out of him. Everybody around

831
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 1: the building just kind of gravitates toward him, and it's

832
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,760
Speaker 1: good for our team. You could see that the moment

833
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:29,280
Speaker 1: that Chase Edmonds walked into the building and was selected

834
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,320
Speaker 1: by the Cardinals. He's always had that personality, that smile

835
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:34,719
Speaker 1: on his face. Different maybe when you get on the

836
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 1: football field and you, you know, lower the pads if

837
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,640
Speaker 1: you will. I'll, like Ron Wilfley likes to say, for

838
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 1: someone to hit, So I do think Chase Edmonds a

839
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 1: big spotlight will be on him. And then, of course

840
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 1: James Connor and the relationship, the connection that Connor has

841
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 1: with James Saxon. The two were together for two seasons

842
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:57,760
Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh. When Connor's first two seasons in the league,

843
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 1: James Saxon discussed that getting reunited with James Connor, you know,

844
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 1: this guy is a pro and it's been fun. You know,

845
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 1: it was fun to be around him for the first

846
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: two years in the league and then it was fun

847
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,440
Speaker 1: watching him from afar and you know, just to get

848
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,320
Speaker 1: a chance to be a back around I guy. You know,

849
00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,400
Speaker 1: there's no words I can use to describe, you know,

850
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,799
Speaker 1: how I feel about that kid. Can he catch the ball?

851
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,480
Speaker 1: Is he a threat out of the backfield to catch

852
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,400
Speaker 1: the ball? Yeah? I mean, but I don't think you

853
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:27,719
Speaker 1: want to ask you elephant to you know, ride in

854
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: a sailboat. A metaphor there from James Saxon. Again, that

855
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 1: was recently on the Big Red Rage. Connor's best season

856
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,799
Speaker 1: as a pro beat trained twenty eighteen. He was named

857
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl his running backs coach, James Saxon, I

858
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 1: think that connection being reunited here. But the Cardinals will

859
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 1: pay off dividends. It absolutely will, because he knows what

860
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 1: he's able to do and what he's able to do

861
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 1: really well, and the fact that he had success with

862
00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 1: him that's going to give him all the confidence that

863
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 1: he can go back and do it again and vice versaly.

864
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:04,440
Speaker 1: With cod he knows how to push those buttons and

865
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,520
Speaker 1: he can really relay that information to not only the

866
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,479
Speaker 1: offensive coaches, but also to Kylin Murray and remind James

867
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,240
Speaker 1: Conner that hey, once upon a time you were considered

868
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 1: one of the top backs in the entire NFL by

869
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 1: your peers. So remember that and go out there and play,

870
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 1: and when your numbers called, do what you know how

871
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,400
Speaker 1: to do. And everybody knows a story about him overcoming

872
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,279
Speaker 1: you know, personal issues and illnesses and all that kind

873
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:35,800
Speaker 1: of stuff and able to still be a productive player

874
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 1: in the NFL. So there are very few people that

875
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: don't root for James Conner off the field. We're all

876
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,319
Speaker 1: rooting for him because he's a good person, but we're

877
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 1: mostly rooting for him because we know he's a good player.

878
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,359
Speaker 1: We give any opportunity he can make some things happen.

879
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,399
Speaker 1: Going back to twenty eighteen, he played in thirteen games,

880
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,279
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifteen attempts. He had nine hundred and

881
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,360
Speaker 1: seventy three yards four point five. He did have twelve

882
00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:03,839
Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns, and he had twenty plus yards nine different times.

883
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,080
Speaker 1: So when he gets to that second layer, because of

884
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 1: his size six one two thirty three, he can break

885
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,200
Speaker 1: tackles when it comes to those dbs well, And we

886
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 1: know that this team is good at running the football.

887
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,399
Speaker 1: Last season eighth best in the league at four point

888
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 1: seven yards per carry seventh best in the league overall

889
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 1: at almost one hundred and forty yards per games. So

890
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 1: this team has shown the ability to run the football.

891
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 1: It's just being a bit more efficient throughout the entire

892
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 1: season because it did certainly dip late in the year. Yeah,

893
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:36,600
Speaker 1: twenty two rushing touchdowns. I want to say Kyler Murray

894
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,800
Speaker 1: had eleven, Kenyan Drake had ten, and then Chase Sevenments

895
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 1: had won. So those numbers will obviously be much different

896
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:46,319
Speaker 1: this season. B Train, I'd say, get out of town,

897
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 1: but we need you back next week for another edition

898
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:52,520
Speaker 1: of the Cardinals Read c Report. But to try to

899
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,960
Speaker 1: stay cool here over the next several days. You know,

900
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:57,720
Speaker 1: I'm going to stay in shape and not do anything

901
00:44:57,800 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 1: super myself. You know, given that advice to the guy

902
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,760
Speaker 1: guy on the team, I'm gonna say my own advice.

903
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 1: How about that, no shoes, no shoes weekend, No shoes, baby,

904
