He is fifty years old here on 17 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: this June twenty second.

He's the only undrafted 19 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 1: player to be named the MVP and also the Super 20 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: Bowl MVP. And we know how successful he was with 21 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals and just less than two minutes in 22 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: that game, Craig. But anyways, happy birthday to Graybeard and 23 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: our colleague here on the call the Cardinals Red Sea Report. 24 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: As the professional broadcaster here opens up the show, bertram 25 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: Berry has an intimate relationship with mister Warner, and we 26 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: have to say it be trained because it is in 27 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: parts because of you that Kurt Warner is up in 28 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: that Cardinal's Ring of Honor because of a certain day 29 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: in New York. I believe it was what a would 30 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: you like to say, a four piece day, four sex, 31 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: no fro there you go. See, I always remem remember, yeah, 32 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: well you know that was actually a sun devil. It 33 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: was it was mid November and playing a giant we 34 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 1: needed to win and uh, you know, highly contested game. 35 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: And you know, Kurt and I never talked about that 36 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: game because you know, I was always embarrassed because I 37 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: always thought the world occurred and I'm just glad that 38 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: whatever the scenario was, he became a teammate and obviously 39 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: we were able to do some great things together and 40 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 1: have some great memories and so definitely want to send 41 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: the birthday shout out to my old teammate. He may 42 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: be a great beard, but he's got a heart of 43 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: goal and uh, you know, definitely got love for him. Well, 44 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: so I believe on that flight home is when he 45 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: was tapped on the shoulder. Instead, we're going with Eli Manning. 46 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: Carlos Stans We bought got him a couple of times 47 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: that day too, so detail absolutely it was a great 48 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: day for carl great day. All right. Well, speaking of quarterbacks, 49 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: your favorite position to talk about here, Betran, we're gonna 50 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: talk about the guys up fronts that are in charge 51 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: up checking the quarterbacks and specifically the Cardinals offensive line. 52 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: So Kyle Murray does not ta a four piece no 53 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: fries afternoon like Kurt Warner did on that day in 54 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: Sundeville Stadium, and specifically be trained when we look at 55 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 1: the five man up front, that five man group, if 56 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: you look at it, you know you've got three starters 57 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 1: returning DJ Humphries, Justin Pugh, and Kelvin Beecham. If Justin 58 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: Murray wins that right guard competition, then you've got four 59 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: fifths of that starting offensive line returning, and then of 60 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: course the man in the middle of the new face 61 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: if you will, Rodney Hudson, and I don't think it 62 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: gets any bigger or better as far as centers are concerned. 63 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: That looks very solid. If when you talk about an 64 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: offensive line, well question and I think for a lot 65 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: of defensive lines, they're going to have to try to 66 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: figure out how to attack this group. And when you 67 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: have a great front five, is really easy to call 68 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: plays because if they can establish that line of scrimmage, 69 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: then anything that you all should have a chance of 70 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: being successful. So as a defensive lineman, the one thing 71 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: that always frustrated me was a group that worked together, 72 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: and this is going to be a veteran type of 73 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: group that if they're able to be on the same 74 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: page quicker than or sooner than later, then I think 75 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 1: that the Cardinals have an opportunity to really do some 76 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: special things on offense, which really sets this team up 77 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: for a lot of success. And I've said it a lot, MJ. 78 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: It's not so much that individually they're the best at 79 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 1: their respective positions outside of maybe Rodney Hudson. DJ Humphries 80 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: is certainly elevating to be a strong left tackle. But 81 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: it's how they work, as b Train mentioned, how they 82 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 1: work together, how they coexist. I think is going to 83 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: say a lot of what the Cardinals offensively will be successful, 84 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 1: and I would say this. I mean, the fact is, yes, 85 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: until they get a guy as an All Pro or 86 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: you know he's you know, makes the Pro Bowl, and 87 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden they'll get the credit. But 88 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: as a unit, we know that Sean Coogler has been 89 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: a big difference over the last two years and they 90 00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: want to get better there. To me, it's the strength 91 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: of the offense. I mean nothing against Kyler Murray if 92 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: they protect him and they can run the ball and 93 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: utilize play action, but I think they're the strength of 94 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,479 Speaker 1: the offense. You know, you look at the wide receivers, 95 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: looks like they're more deep, a little bit deeper there 96 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 1: tight end. Maybe you got two, they're probably going to 97 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: add one. But I think that's the strength of the offense. 98 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: Would be the line. The question mark though, as I mentioned, 99 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: is right guard, and I think it's the only true 100 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: position battle. If you will on the offensive side of 101 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: the ball and right guard you've got four guys Brian Winters, 102 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: Justin Murray, Josh Jones, and Max Garcia. Winters. I think 103 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: mj go is in at least for me maybe as 104 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: the odds on favor, just because of the experience at 105 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 1: that position. Although Murray, as I mentioned, he started four 106 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: games to close out the year, so he knows the offense. 107 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: Winters though has him in the experience category. He started 108 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: a ton of games. He actually played with Kelvin Beecham 109 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: with the New York Jets. Is some familiarity there. But 110 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: I think they want to have competition, and they've mentioned 111 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: four different guys that possibly could compete for that, and 112 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 1: clearly you're going to address eight on game day, so 113 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: you gotta think Josh Jones, who got a chance to 114 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: play last year as an extra tackle, Jessin Murray has 115 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 1: has the experience. You throw in Winters, and then you 116 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: all us looking look at a guy like Max Garcia, 117 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: I think he's more of a guard center. But I 118 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: think when you look at the top eight, besides Josh Jones, 119 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: I got a lot of experience up there. Jones is 120 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: the interesting, maybe the wild card, and all of this 121 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: drafted as an offensive tackle last year, as you mentioned, 122 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: more of a sixth offensive lineman, but as we heard 123 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: from Sean Coogler this offseason, he has the versatility to 124 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 1: play inside and perhaps be in that mix for right guarding. 125 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: DJ Humphreys certainly has like what he's seen so far 126 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: out of Josh Jones this offseason. You can tell Josh 127 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: took his offseason series. He's come in and he's very 128 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: tapped into his playbook. He's been working a lot of 129 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,119 Speaker 1: inside in now and he's leaning into it. He doesn't 130 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: have any reserves about it at all, and that's impressive 131 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 1: to see for a young player. But trying to move 132 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: me to right tackle and I I had a chance 133 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: to start and I wasn't trying to do it, you 134 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: know what I mean. So it's impressive to see him 135 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: be so young and just lean into whatever it is 136 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: that he has to do to be excited to help 137 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: the two B train. We're not in these meeting rooms, 138 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: we don't are not up close on the practice field, 139 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: But how would you kind of handicap that right guard battle, 140 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: which will be a battle in training camp. I see 141 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: it as the guy that is the most consistent is 142 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: going to win it. And I think for coach Kogler, 143 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: he's really established competition at every position, which is good. 144 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: I think is healthy four team to have competition at 145 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: every position. And yeah, there's going to be something that 146 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: have more competition than others, and that's based on the 147 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: guys and what they've done at those positions. But I 148 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,239 Speaker 1: think here it's going to be imperative that whoever wins 149 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: this out of the four, that they come in and 150 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: they show that they can handle whatever comes their way consistently. 151 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: If not, you can do it for a play too 152 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: or a driver too, you got to be able to 153 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: do it for sixty minutes. And if you're able to 154 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: come in and really shore up that that miss in 155 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: peace for this offensive line, then I think it really 156 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: opens up so much of what you can do as 157 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: far as playbook and in different concepts. And I think 158 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: all of them to take this offense to a whole 159 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: another level that maybe they hadn't experienced. Shit, it is 160 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: going to be something to pay attention to. And I 161 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: don't think we'll get an answer immediately. It might go 162 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: all the way through into the preseason and get an 163 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: announcement maybe even ahead of Week one. But that issue 164 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: as far as who plays right guard, if Brian Winters 165 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: is the guide then. Of course, as you mentioned MJ 166 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: that there is familiarity with the right tackle and Calvin 167 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: Beacham teammates with the Jets for a couple of seasons 168 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: from twenty seventeen to twenty nineteen. Beacham returned signed a 169 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: two year contract in the offseason. He was very solid 170 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 1: last year. In fact, Pro Football Focus had him as 171 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: allowing just three sacks all year round. But there was, 172 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,439 Speaker 1: at least for the Cardinals there was interest, and for 173 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: Beacham there was no other place for him to play 174 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 1: if he was going to continue playing in twenty twenty 175 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: one and beyond because of one man, and that would 176 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: be Sean Coogler. Sean Jugler is a big reason why 177 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: I made the decision to come out to the Desert 178 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 1: last year, and really probably one of the single most 179 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 1: important reasons why I signed back this year. Sean Coogler 180 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: is the guy that stood on the table and drafted 181 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: me in two thousand and twelve. I probably wouldn't play 182 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: right tackle for another coach, just being honest with you. 183 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: Coaching matters, and now Kogler has a larger voice in 184 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: that room. If you will be trained as not only 185 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: is the offensive line coach, but gets added the run 186 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: game coordinator title. How much or what does that mean exactly, 187 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 1: I'm not exactly sure. I think we'll have to kind 188 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: of figure out as the season progresses. But as they say, 189 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 1: you know, you get that title, and then all of 190 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 1: a sudden, maybe a louder voice becomes when we see 191 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: a little bit more of a running game with the 192 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,719 Speaker 1: Cardinals offense this season, Well, you hope to see more 193 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: of a running game. You want to see a physicality 194 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: and in a style of play established for this team. 195 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: And I think the more that you have that, the 196 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: more you have called that can really the funnel. If 197 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 1: you a defense and if you're running the ball, play 198 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: action comes into play, and all types of ways to 199 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: manipulate coverage and and dictate what type of coverage you're 200 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 1: going to see. I think all of those things are 201 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: going to be part of the deal. And also the 202 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:22,959 Speaker 1: mentality I think for the mindset of these guys up front, 203 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: if you run the football and you have success, I 204 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 1: think that gives them that much more confident And I 205 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: think a confident offensive line as a group is going 206 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: to be able to accomplish much more than just guys 207 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: going out there trying to survive during the course of 208 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: a game and you know, trying to trying to block 209 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 1: their their individual assignment for that particular play. You look 210 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 1: at Kelvin Beecham last year, he played eleven and twenty 211 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: eight snaps and he started all sixteen games. So I 212 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 1: think when you look at the film, um, they were 213 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: trying to figure out who was going to be the 214 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: right tackle. We didn't think Josh Jones would start right away, 215 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:58,959 Speaker 1: and the Cardinals had him ranked very high, and it 216 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: goes sixty two and around. You look at Josh Jones 217 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: as an extra blocker, he had fifty five snaps. There, 218 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 1: Garcias sixty nine. So again, also these guys play on 219 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: special teams, you know, extra point and field goals, etc. 220 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: So I think, you know they have eight top guys, 221 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 1: and I'm sure they want to have that second unit 222 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: just as good where there's not a big drop off 223 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 1: if somebody did get hurt. They were ranked very well, 224 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: rated very well according to all the metrics. Talking about 225 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: the offensive line, you look at the numbers, two thousand 226 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: yards rushing, twenty or more touchdowns and that's only happened 227 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: six times in franchise history, and you mentioned MJ the 228 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 1: improvements of that offensive line under Sean Coogler since he 229 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: arrived with the Cardinals. As good as things have gone, 230 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: coach realizes that there is still some things that that 231 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: offensive line needs to work on. When we're rolling, we're 232 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: hard to stop, and we showed flashes of that, but flashes, 233 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: you know, didn't get us to where we wanted to go. 234 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: We got to be more consistent in the penalty phase, 235 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: and really on a lot of pre snap things, you know, 236 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: false starts and those type things, and those are not tolerable. 237 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: That you can't have those to be successive puts you 238 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: behind the chains. It makes every single drive that much 239 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: harder to be successful at the end of the drive. 240 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 1: So we have to eliminate that. Here are the numbers 241 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: as far as the penalties are concerned. The Cardinals were 242 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 1: penalize one hundred and thirteen times forty five of those 243 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: presnap penalties, the second most in the league. And be trained, 244 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: you played, we didn't, But a pre snap penalty to 245 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: me is more mental, especially if you're on the offensive 246 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: ending you jump early or defensively, you're trying to be 247 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: a little bit more aggressive and jump across that line. 248 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: It is mental, and I think for players and coaches 249 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,559 Speaker 1: it's frowned upon more than a play that when you're 250 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,839 Speaker 1: actually trying to do something positive for your team, when 251 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: you have a mental breakdown, that that's all on the individual. 252 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: You're not going to hold the whole offense or defense 253 00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 1: accountable for mental errors in And I think penalties are 254 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,839 Speaker 1: the quickest way to kill a drive or to have 255 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: your team scored on as far as on the defensive side, 256 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: So you definitely don't want to have those. And when 257 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,439 Speaker 1: you can control those, it's up to the individuals. We're 258 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: all pros, we're all paid, so it's up to everybody 259 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 1: out there. When you're on the field, you're trusted to 260 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: do your job one, but not beat the team in 261 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,959 Speaker 1: the process. If we look at what happened after these season, 262 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: we know this team did not play well down this 263 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: truss included in the offensive line. They were rotating guys, 264 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 1: some guys wore down as a season unfolded. So they 265 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: make the promotion here, and I still think they're going 266 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: to run a lot of eleven twelve personnel. Last year 267 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: they run eleven personnel forty percent of the time, twelve 268 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: personnel thirty percent of the the time, and I'm sure Cliff 269 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: isn't likes these receivers. They ran ten personnel twenty percent. 270 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 1: I think with Sean Cougar's influence, we're going to see 271 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: a lot of eleven twelve personnel that year this year, 272 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: and that means you got to win at the line 273 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: of scrimmage. It's gonna be fun to pay attention to 274 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: kind of monitor, if you will, how that offense looks 275 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 1: and then progresses. Not maybe in the regular season, but 276 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: if we can get a glimpse in training camp.

Shotgun Snap hurts 282 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: short set, steps up, being chase far side by Guardek 283 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 1: sacks up at the forty one yard line. Dennis Gardeck 284 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: has become the sack machine. Shotgun Snap Hurts with a 285 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: short set in trouble, steps up, gets hit at sacked. 286 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: Dennis Cardek was there first. Somebody hit the stroll Baby 287 00:14:51,520 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: Guard Deckie gard Deckie Guard Deckie. Enough time has passed 288 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: since last season to where you know, things kind of 289 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: slowed down and you remember certain moments of the year 290 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: and you can kind of understand why things happen or 291 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: why didn't. I'm still trying to wrap my head around 292 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: exactly what Dennis Gardek was able to do b Train. 293 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: You look and you listen to his numbers. Keep in 294 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: mind ninety three defensive snaps. That's all he played last season, 295 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: yet he had seven sacks, seven tackles for loss, and 296 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: ten quarterback hits. Again, he had never played defense at 297 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: all up until he was called upon when Chandler Jones 298 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: went down at the New York Jets. It is a 299 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: wonder what he did, and it's just unfortunate now that 300 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 1: he's still rehabbing from that right ACL injury. But when 301 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 1: you look back at what Gardek did, what impresses you 302 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: the most be train. The thing that impresses me is 303 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: that he took advantage of the opportunity to give it. 304 00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: In fact, he only had with ninety s rips, and 305 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: he is able to have that type of productivity. I 306 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: think it's clear that he's earned the right to be 307 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: on the field a lot more than what he was 308 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: last year. And there's no quicker way to impress the 309 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: coaching staff and your teammates than to go out there 310 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: and make the most of the few reps that you get. 311 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: And when you make big plays to help the defense 312 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 1: get off the field, you're definitely going to be held 313 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: in the higher esteem. And I think for Dennis, he's 314 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: definitely already earned respect of the players and the coaches, 315 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: but to go out there and do what he did 316 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 1: in a little time, that that just makes his legend 317 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: grows that much greater here in Arizona. I mean, this 318 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: guy made the Pro Ball as a special teams player 319 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: and then you look at the Cardinals made him a 320 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: tender offer, so they must feel comfortable at some point 321 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: he's going to be able to contribute for the upcoming season. 322 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 1: Clearly they feel like, you know, we'll get into when 323 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: his return could be, but you know, depending on when 324 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: her returns, it's Almos's like making a trade and then 325 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: we'll see what the rotation is at the outside linebacker position. 326 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: Because he's earned the right, as b Train said, to 327 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,199 Speaker 1: get more snaps. And I want to touch on that 328 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 1: B train because there is and I kind of fall 329 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 1: into this because he was so good that obviously you 330 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 1: want him on the field more. But is he still 331 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 1: that successful if he's playing more snaps or is he 332 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 1: better in certain packages certain situations because he is that 333 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: full speed ahead kind of guy, and maybe he doesn't 334 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 1: have all the technique, all the different moves as say 335 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,239 Speaker 1: Chandler Jones. I'm not comparing the two as far as 336 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: getting to the quarterback, but maybe smaller doses of Dennis 337 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 1: Gardack work better for him to be successful as an 338 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: edge rusher. It was great for him because he wasn't 339 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 1: game plan for. And you talk about Dennis Gardack lining 340 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: up over a tackle, He's not going to get the 341 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: same respect or the same look that a Chandler Jones will, 342 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 1: and that's part of why he was able to have 343 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: that success. Now, going into this season, I think there's 344 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 1: going to be offensive coordinators and offensive lineman that are 345 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 1: going to pay a little bit more attention to Dinners 346 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: because when he comes in, they're gonna remember, oh, this 347 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: this is a guy that had the seven saxon and 348 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: the tackle for losses and the quarterback hits and all 349 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: those things. He's very productive. So once you've done it, 350 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: then you've gotten everybody's attention. So I think he can 351 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: still have that same productivity. He reminds me of a 352 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: poor man's Kyle Vandenbosch when you start talking about and 353 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 1: that's not a disc the Kyle, because I love Kyle, 354 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: but he's gonna get a lot of his plays made 355 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: because he's just an effort guy. He is just not 356 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 1: gonna quit. And you need guys on the team that 357 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: are not gonna quit because there's gonna be plays that 358 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: are gonna be made by them just because they're they're 359 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: gonna play until the whistles blown. And when you see 360 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: those guys have success, you roof for them because you 361 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 1: know the type of energy and the type of effort 362 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: that they bring to the team. And only positive results 363 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: can come from him. And if we recall when when 364 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: they went to that NASCAR package, you know, similar to 365 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 1: being bringing in pass rushers or the jet package, it 366 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: was really effective considering they couldn't get pressure. It was 367 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: more by committee, and you got to give us on 368 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: Reddick a lot of credit, but it was done by committee, 369 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 1: and they finished with forty eight, forty nine, forty eight, 370 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: and they should have more this year with the addition 371 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: of J. J. Watt healthy Jordan Phillips, you know, just 372 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: as a whole defense and whether they play man and 373 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: man or zone, they should be better in that area. 374 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: The question now is when will will you see Dennis 375 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: Gardeck on the football field. Got hurts against the Eagles 376 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: in week fifteen. The updates here from head coach Cliff 377 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: Kingsbury asked about Gardeck during the recent mini camp session. Dennis. 378 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: I wouldn't put anything past Dennis. I mean, he looks great. 379 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: It sounds like he's ahead of schedule by all accounts, 380 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: and so we'll see how he feels going in the 381 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: training camp. But if he's not ready for the start, 382 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 1: I would expect him to be ready soon thereafter. Now 383 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 1: there's a great article up on asy Cardinals dot com 384 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 1: by Darren Urban, who had a chance to speak with 385 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: Gardeck in this rehab process recently and to hear guardack. 386 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: He didn't put a timetable on it. He didn't say, yeah, 387 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be ready. But you could tell in reading 388 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: that article MJ that he is itching to get back. 389 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: He is full speed ahead. He's being told to dial 390 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 1: it back because great, you're available week one, but we 391 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: don't need you to suffer a setback. How About we 392 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: make sure you're as close to one hundred percent as possible, 393 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 1: and if that is to your point in mid season 394 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: edition i e. A trade, then let's have you for 395 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 1: the last eight games nine games of the regular season. 396 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: He works out here basically every day, probably five days 397 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: a week. Takes a weekend off. I don't know that 398 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: for sure, but I know he's been here working out, 399 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 1: and I wouldn't bet against him. But you know, the 400 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 1: Cardinals will have some flexibility here. If he starts camp 401 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: on PUP and he's making progress, you can take him 402 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 1: off pup. But if he starts a season on pup, 403 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: then he's going to be out six weeks. He's a 404 00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: sixty eight weeks six weeks six weeks. So say he 405 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: misses a few games and he comes back late September October, 406 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: it's like getting another player in free agency, even though 407 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: we know what he can do on special teams, so 408 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard to kind of pull him back 409 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 1: a little bit. But he's you know, Jermaine Gresham was 410 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: on pup and then it took him two weeks to 411 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: get into football shape. I don't know if that's going 412 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 1: to be the case with him, but until he's cleared, 413 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,199 Speaker 1: we're really not going to know anymore. Well, we did 414 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: see Gardeck doing some light running during OTAs in mini camp. 415 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 1: He was on the far side of the field with 416 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: the training staff south. He is doing some work, and 417 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: he is around the team and watching film and being 418 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: in those meetings, and yeah, he will be a parts 419 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: of this defense moving forward. Of course, he was a 420 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 1: big parts last year. Here's defensive coordinator Vance Joseph specifically 421 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: talking about Dennis Gardeck on what he was able to 422 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: do last season. He's been a big part of I 423 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: wouldn't ask or a package in our jet package. I 424 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 1: mean he makes it go. He's a quarterback. I mean 425 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: he actually makes the calls. You know with our pass 426 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: rush games. You know most of his sacks he's been blocked, 427 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 1: he's been stoned, and he just won't stop. He plays 428 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: very few snaps, but he has very, very high production. 429 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,919 Speaker 1: I want to go back to something you said at 430 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: the starts of this segment, b Train about taking advantage 431 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:19,199 Speaker 1: of the opportunity and maybe we don't see Dennis Gardak 432 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 1: play any defense if Chandler Jones doesn't go down, and 433 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: it's just something that you're waiting in the wings if 434 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: you're Dennis Gardak for that tap on the shoulder and say, son, 435 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: go in, let's see what you can do. Some players 436 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 1: get that opportunity, others don't. But it is a great 437 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: example for everyone out there, even if you are undrafted. 438 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 1: You can be successful in this league if only given 439 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: the opportunity. But it's up to you to do something 440 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: with that opportunity. You gotta be prepared and that comes 441 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: with preparation. You gotta be prepared for the moment. And 442 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: that's the one thing that makes it so great as 443 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: far as Dennis is concerned, because every time he was 444 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: tapped on the shoulder, as you said, he was prepared. 445 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: He was ready for the moment and he took full advantage. 446 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: And yeah, there's gonna be times where you get tapped 447 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 1: on the shoulder, and if you're not prepared, you can 448 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 1: go out there and make a fool of yourself and 449 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: you won't get many more taps on the shoulder after that. 450 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: So the fact that he's been able to do that 451 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: and excel in the and I think Dennis is the 452 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 1: type of player that he really doesn't care as long 453 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 1: as he's contributing and my team win. Whatever role that 454 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: they put him in and ask him to play, I 455 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: think he's gonna go out there and play it at 456 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 1: the highest level and to the best of his capabilities. 457 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: And those are blue guys. Those are the type of 458 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 1: guys that you need on a roster. You need about 459 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 1: three or four of those guys to just have a 460 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: round because they set a tone just by the way 461 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,640 Speaker 1: that they approached the game and their professionalism and their 462 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: energy and effort is something that is definitely contagious and 463 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: the rest of the team can catch on. I'll say this, 464 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: he is If he does play defense, that's great, but 465 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 1: he is dead sets and I think he will always 466 00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: have a role on special teams just based off what 467 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 1: he has done, and we know the voice that Jeff 468 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 1: Rogers has in that room. You don't want those guys 469 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 1: to go. Yes, you're happy for them to get out 470 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: of their opportunities on offense or defense, but special teams 471 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 1: is always going to be important for this organization MG 472 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: as long as Jeff Rogers is here. Yeah, between five 473 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: and eight guys and usually it's if you're playing backup role, 474 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: you're going to be dressed on game day. Now, if 475 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 1: you go back to that game where Chandler got hurt 476 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 1: and he was going against Andrew Thomas, who I like 477 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: coming out of the draft, but he obviously struggled. He 478 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,239 Speaker 1: pancaked him on the first play and the next thing, 479 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 1: you know, and maybe going against Humphries in training camp 480 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 1: or the right side, he put a move on Andrew Thomas, 481 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: who was picked very high in the draft. And after 482 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: that you could see that they were trying to slide 483 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: the line a little bit, but he got pancaked right 484 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 1: from the get go. I'm like, wow, this is interesting. 485 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 1: And then he came back and obviously him and Sawn 486 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: Reddick had big games. When you look at outside linebacker, 487 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 1: you've got Chandler Jones, Marcus Golden, and Devon can Hard. 488 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: Maybe those are your top three and then you wait 489 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,719 Speaker 1: until Dennis Gardak gets healthy. But betrain Win Gardak does return. 490 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,400 Speaker 1: If those top three guys are not doing what they're 491 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 1: supposed to be doing or aren't effective, you know you've 492 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: got someone in the bullpen. If you will just chomping 493 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: at the bed saying put me in I don't think 494 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 1: there's any reason to keep Dennis Gardak off the field. Yeah, 495 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: you may have names in front of him, but when 496 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: you start talking about productivity, the productivity speaks for itself. 497 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: Seven sacks and seven sacks. There's a lot of starters 498 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: in the NFL they don't have seven sacks. So if 499 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: he is available and he has an opportunity to get 500 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: on the field, you put that kind of productivity on 501 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: the field and and we'll worry about hurt feelings later. 502 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: So I think it's it's all about who put the 503 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: hot hand, who's playing the best at the time that 504 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 1: should be playing in Yeah, there may be three right 505 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: now as it stands, but when you get into the 506 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 1: heat at the moment he's got to go and showing 507 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 1: proved because he's already done that. You got Marcus Golden 508 00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: Dennis Gardack, two passionate players that just have a motor 509 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: that is just go, and you have to kind of 510 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 1: hold him back, and that's part of this rehab process. 511 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: But to be Train's point, MJ, you like to have 512 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: those guys, but maybe it's not so much. And I 513 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 1: think Gardek would be open to getting more defensive snaps, 514 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 1: not at the expense of special teams. We just see 515 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: him more on the football field. Yeah, and you got 516 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 1: Kylie Fitz And again you look at the you know, 517 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 1: the Jet package and the NASCAR package. Are they going 518 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: to use that this year? Considering you've got Collins and 519 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,880 Speaker 1: Simmons inside. We know Buddha Baker can come into box. 520 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you want to get your playmakers on the field. 521 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 1: So it's going to be interesting. Um, it's really good 522 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: dilemma for for Vans Joseph because he's going to be 523 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: at to pick and choose based on the opponents. So 524 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: I'm curious to see what kind of packages they come 525 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 1: up with, because you can use Dennis Gardeck and he 526 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: may draw, you know, the extra tackle on the outside, 527 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: or maybe he's got to face a running back to 528 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: get to the quarterback. So it'd be interesting to see 529 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: this year how different it is from a year ago. 530 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 1: Now that you have Chandler Jones, J J. Watt, and 531 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,400 Speaker 1: Jordan Phillips. Yeah, I was gonna mention j. J. Watt 532 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,439 Speaker 1: is a new part of the equation. Jordan Phillips healthy, 533 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, maybe you don't need 534 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: that NASCAR package because you're just with your base defense. 535 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: If you will, you're getting pressure on the quarterback, You're 536 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 1: getting into the backfield. The question is does that include 537 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: Dennis Cardeck or nod? When does it include Dennis Gardeck. 538 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: Single game tickets are on sale now, Bird Gang visit 539 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 1: Asy Cardinals dot com Slash game ticks.

That's straight ahead Craig 546 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 1: Rayel Loup, Mike Jarecki, and Bertram Berry. It is the 547 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 1: Cardinals Red Sea Report on the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network. 548 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 1: Hurry back to throw, flushed out, rolling left in trouble, 549 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: slips a tackle, Gotta launch it. He does, left side 550 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 1: into the end zone, jump ball and it is Is 551 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: it caught? Is it caught? Oh my goodness, it's caught. 552 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins mought he caught it for a duckdown, but 553 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,399 Speaker 1: one second lap I can't believe him. You gotta be 554 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:26,360 Speaker 1: joking me. Hopkins reaches off with three dimensions around him. 555 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: Head polls it in head. The Cardinals lead at thirty 556 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: two to three. With a second lap, Chadcober goof, you're 557 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 1: not gonna be able with the Carver room throw the 558 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: fall off. Maybe the highlights of the season, all right, 559 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: not Maybe it was the highlights of the season, not 560 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: just the Cardinal season, but the entire NFL. And now 561 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: it is up for Play of the Year. As far 562 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: as the twenty twenty one SPS are concerned, the Hail Murray, 563 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: Kyle mur Murray, and Deander Hopkins as described there by 564 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: Day Patch and Ron Wolfley into the quarterfinals for Best 565 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: Play of twenty twenty one. They are now one of 566 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: eight eight finalists. If you will again this is a 567 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: fan vote Bird Gang, go to ESPN dot com slash SPS. 568 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: That's ESPN dot com slash SPS. It has already won 569 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: Clutch Play of the Year at NFL Honors back in February. 570 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 1: So the top sixteen plays across the board MJ now 571 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: whittled down to eights and Hill Murray in the quarterfinals. 572 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: As we pointed out on Cards Cover two, you can 573 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: vote early and often and it's really easy. And is 574 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: there another Cardinal play in there? Well, there is another 575 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: one kind of sort of on the other half of 576 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: the bracket, if you will, And it involves Buddha Baker 577 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: and a Seahawks wide receiver. And well we'll just leave 578 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: it at that. It certainly was a tremendous play on 579 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: dk metcast half. But yeah, it was. It was a 580 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: lot of fun. And well, bottom line is the Cardinals 581 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: well in that game, so it doesn't matter exactly the 582 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: end results of that. All right, let's continue here on 583 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 1: the Cardinals Red Siver part Craig Riel, Mike Jarecki and 584 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: Bertrand Berry. And speaking of DeAndre Hopkins on the receiving 585 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: end of the hill, Murray the wide receiver position certainly 586 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: I think be train. We expect a lot out of 587 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: that position year two in this system for Hopkins. AJ 588 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: Green is back, and Christian Kirk we haven't heard a 589 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: lot from him. Rondel Moore is the newest toy, if 590 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: you will, along with Green. But there is someone now 591 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: that we don't really know what's going on with, Larry Fitzgerald. 592 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk is the veteran in that room at least 593 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: in terms of wearing a Cardinals uniform. And he is 594 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: a guy that has a lot to prove, and I'm 595 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: sure he's relishing the opportunity to go out there and 596 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: remind everybody that he was once upon a time a 597 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 1: big play receiver and he was brought out of takes 598 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 1: his nm to be that as well as a special 599 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: teamer for this team, and it is to have definitely 600 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: played a role in him not living up to the 601 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: expectations thus far. But I really believe that he put 602 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: in the work this offseason and he's gotten his body right, 603 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: and now it's just a matter of putting it all 604 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: together and being consistent out there and making plays when 605 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: his numbers called. And if he does that, then he 606 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: still has a lot of football left in him to 607 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 1: realize all the potential that was talked about in reference 608 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: to him coming out of college. Once again, it seems 609 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 1: like the keyword today's opportunity. I mean, he's in the 610 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: final year of verse contract, okay, and I follow him 611 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: on social media and he said I'm going to make 612 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: him pay. Now we'll see. He's got to stay healthy. 613 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 1: I think COVID did affect him, but he had as 614 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: many touchdowns as Hopkins last year obviously didn't have the targets, 615 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: didn't have the yardage, but the Cardinals could roll for 616 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 1: wide receivers out if they wanted to. I mean again, 617 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: he still want to protect the edges. But I think 618 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: Kristian Kirk knows, you know, by drafting rondel Morene, maybe 619 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 1: he'll have more of an impact on special teams, but 620 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: they're clearly going to get involved in the offense. The 621 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: jet sweeps, the bubble screens could line up in the slot. 622 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk's a very good route runner. They said he 623 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: was too small, too slow, and we watched him get 624 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: seventy yard passes from Kyler Murray. There's a connection there. 625 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: He's just got to stay healthy and he's got to 626 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: be engaged, and if he does that, I think he's 627 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 1: gonna have a good year. Well, we saw him a 628 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,959 Speaker 1: lot play in the slot last year, maybe without fits 629 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: being in the mix. And if AJ Green is that 630 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 1: other outside receiver, does Christian Kirk play that backup role 631 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: if you will to Aj Green unless you go four 632 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: wide and all of a sudden Kirk is in the 633 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: slot with Ron del Moore, I think you know you 634 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: got aj Green, he's an outside guy. And the way 635 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray's talking about him, he said people are falling 636 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: asleep on I'm paraphrasing, and that tells me he's got 637 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: a connection with him. Of course, they did work out 638 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: for a few days in Dallas, and you know, if 639 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: he gets forty five fifty catches, but he's going to 640 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 1: be your outside guy fifty fifty balls, and then I 641 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: think Keyshawn Johnson, you know, I think he's right now, 642 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 1: probably number five. He'll be your back up there and 643 00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: then we'll see if they move Hopkins around. But they 644 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 1: could roll out four wide receivers if they choose to. 645 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: But again, I think a lot of eleven personnel and 646 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: then you can rotate Rondel Moore and Christian Kirk. Looking 647 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: at Kirk's numbers last season, b trained he was the 648 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 1: second most targeted wide receiver at seventy nine, and he 649 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: did have six touchdowns that tied DeAndre Hopkins for the 650 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 1: team lead. But there was certain parts of last season, 651 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: the start of the year and the end of the year, 652 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: in which Kirk kind of disappeared. He had a great 653 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: six game stretch between weeks five and eleven in which 654 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: he had five of his six touchdowns, but just one 655 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: touchdown in the seven other games he played, and whether 656 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: that was his faults, the scheme, or opposing defenses taking 657 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: him out of the game, there were several post games 658 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: in which we were wondering what happened or where was 659 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk on that particular Sunday, for sure, and only 660 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: he really knows what happened, why he had to fall 661 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 1: off in productivity, And I think he had plenty of 662 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: time to think about it. He had time to be 663 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: honest with himself and look himself in the mirror and say, Okay, 664 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: this is what I did wrong, and this is what 665 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: I want to have to do in order to make 666 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 1: sure that those things don't happen again. And I think 667 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: at this point he understands it's all on him. He's 668 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: betting on himself. He's got to go out and make 669 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: the plays, and it's just taking it step by step. 670 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: You can't think big picture, you can't think, Okay, I 671 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: got seventeen games. You take it day by day, week 672 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: by week, game by game, And if he's able to 673 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: take that approach and really minimize the pressure, then I 674 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 1: think he's going to have a really big season. I 675 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: don't know what the numbers are gonna look like, but 676 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 1: I think it'll be numbers that he's going to be 677 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:43,799 Speaker 1: happy with. And he will indeed make the defenses pay 678 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: and then make the team that wants him for his 679 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: services pay as far as money is concerned. If I 680 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: recall he dropped two touchdowns, I know one was on 681 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,320 Speaker 1: the goal line going into the end zone and another 682 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 1: one he was close, and so I mean maybe his 683 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 1: confidence was up because he normally makes those catches and 684 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,399 Speaker 1: when you get down to the goal line, obviously you've 685 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: got to know you're going to take a hit trying 686 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 1: to get it in the end zone. But he did 687 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:07,319 Speaker 1: drop the ball going into the end zone well close 688 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: to the end. And you look at his absence in 689 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: the final game, as he was on the reserve COVID 690 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: nineteen lists along with fits, and all of a sudden, 691 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 1: you know you have Christian Kirk out on that field. 692 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,319 Speaker 1: Maybe that game is a little different. I mean, again, 693 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: there were a lot things that went wrong that afternoon 694 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, but beatran. You always say, you know, 695 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 1: your best ability is availability. Kirk did play fourteen games 696 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: last season, more than he had played the previous two years. 697 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: But to your point, you have to be able to 698 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 1: not only be available, but once you're available, do something 699 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: with that availability. You got to be able to impact 700 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,879 Speaker 1: the game in some way. And as a receiver that's 701 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: catching the football and blocking and doing the things that 702 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,800 Speaker 1: makes this offense successful and makes it go. And for 703 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: whatever reason, it just didn't work as consistent as consistently 704 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: as we would like for Christian Kirk. And I think 705 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 1: again he knows why, and as long as he's addressing 706 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: it and being a professional about it, and you see 707 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 1: a different Christian Kirk this year. I think everybody is 708 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 1: going to be happy with it, and everything that he 709 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 1: went through will all make sense when it's all said 710 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 1: and done, and I think he'll be a better man 711 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 1: for it. And I'm root for a former second round 712 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 1: draft pick, hometown kid playing for the hometown team MJ. 713 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 1: You root for guys like that. But here this offseason 714 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,919 Speaker 1: with AJ Green in the mix, the drafting of Rondel Moore, 715 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 1: what do we always like? Well, you like what's new, 716 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,360 Speaker 1: and the newest are green and more, and all of 717 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: a sudden, Yeah, Hopkins is going to be d D 718 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 1: hop We know about him. And then it's just well, 719 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 1: well there's Christian Kirk that maybe being in the shadows, 720 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 1: maybe not being talked a lot about maybe being off 721 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:52,800 Speaker 1: the radar, if you will, will be good for Christian 722 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 1: Kirk this year. Well I remember us having this conversation, 723 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: was he one A or number two wide receiver? Now 724 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: now with the addition of a green and we'll wait 725 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:02,880 Speaker 1: and see, because Ron del Moore has you had to 726 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,360 Speaker 1: play a snap in the NFL. I'm excited with the upside. 727 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: But you know, we know that slot cornerbacks are just 728 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 1: as good as the second corner, but sometimes you may 729 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 1: draw the fourth cornerback and that's where you got to 730 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 1: get off press coverage and make those catches. So again, 731 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 1: I believe he has a chip on his shoulder. He 732 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,439 Speaker 1: knows what's at stake here and he's got seventeen games 733 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 1: to prove himself. Well. He can also make an impact 734 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 1: on special teams. I think that's going to be something 735 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: to pay attention to because I think the expectation is 736 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,919 Speaker 1: is that's rondel Moore, whether on kickoff or punt or both. 737 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 1: But Kirk does have that ability to be the return 738 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: guy on punts, which we've seen and you know, I 739 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 1: think you'll see I don't know if it's competition, but 740 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 1: I think both of those guys specifics specifically will be 741 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 1: given every opportunity to kind of win that job. Well, 742 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:48,719 Speaker 1: we know he's going to be active on game day, 743 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: he plays on teams, but I think going in, I 744 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: think Ron del Moore is going to get a chance 745 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 1: to return punts and kickoffs, be trained. You like the 746 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 1: fact that maybe if you're not talked a lot about 747 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,799 Speaker 1: and that's better, or if you're not being if you're 748 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: not being talked about, all of a sudden, you become forgotten, 749 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 1: and no one wants to be forgotten. I love it 750 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,399 Speaker 1: when you sleep on me and then you just watch 751 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,800 Speaker 1: me work, because then I can come back and I 752 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: can silence all the critics and all the naysayers. And 753 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: it's so much sweeter when when you go about it 754 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,399 Speaker 1: that way than when you're boastfully talking and then you're 755 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 1: not able to deliver. So I think he's making the 756 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,839 Speaker 1: right approach. Just watch me work, and he's gonna put 757 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: his head down, he's going to go to work, and 758 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 1: I think we're going to see great results. And as 759 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 1: we've all said, we're rooting for him. He's a hometown guy, 760 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 1: and I know all the Phoenix is going to be 761 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 1: rooting for Christian Kirk to have a big year twenty 762 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 1: twenty one. Put it this way, more people talking about 763 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 1: fans media have asked about a player not currently under 764 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 1: contracts that would be Larry Fitzgerald than a player who 765 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,320 Speaker 1: is under contracting supposed to be a big part of 766 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 1: this offense, Christian Kirk. So we'll have to wait and seeing. 767 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:59,720 Speaker 1: Maybe it does slight of fire under the former Sorrel 768 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 1: high stand out Bird Gang.

I was excited about he 780 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 1: started every single game he played in college, and he 781 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 1: was forty six forty seventh straight game. And Charlie Bullen 782 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 1: and I, Quinn Harris and I we went to the 783 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 1: pro day. The coaches start talking about this guy, and 784 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 1: you know, they just light up the kids all business 785 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 1: they see is the alpha the group. I would actually 786 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: use the word scary to describe them. So no one 787 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,799 Speaker 1: message with the guy. See, you get that alpha personality 788 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 1: with the Duke degree. It's kind of rare. Six foot one, 789 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: two hundred and sixty two pounds The Cardinals sixth round 790 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: draft pick Victor d Mukage two hundred and tenth overall selection. 791 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,839 Speaker 1: Drew Grigson there commenting on de Mukage on a recent 792 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 1: episode of The Big Red Rage with Paul Calbisi and 793 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,400 Speaker 1: Ron Wolfley. Uh, you know, it's kind of reminds me 794 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 1: of you, b trained, you know, the alpha male, you 795 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: know you, but with the instead of a Duke degree, 796 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: it's a Notre Dame degree. Those one and the same. Here, 797 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 1: am I opening up a door that I probably shouldn't 798 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 1: open up? Oh yeah, you're opening the door wide open. Brother. 799 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,840 Speaker 1: You know, we don't compare our degree to anybody else's 800 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: at much respect to Duke, but they're not Notre Dame, 801 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,399 Speaker 1: that's for sure. I knew I was going to walk 802 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,839 Speaker 1: into something there. By the way, as we've discussed here 803 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 1: on the Cardinals Red Sea reports, Dan Mukagi is wearing 804 00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:10,919 Speaker 1: number ninety two. B Tran has made it perfectly clear 805 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 1: and I heard it on last week's Big Red Rays. 806 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 1: They played the soundbites for Dan Mukaji that yes, you 807 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 1: have to not only look good, but you have to 808 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 1: play good. Don't be standing on the sidelines, to which 809 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 1: d Mukaji said quotes, I feel like I've got the 810 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 1: good looks already end quote. So he's got half of 811 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 1: it be train. Now he's got to prove the other half, 812 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: and that is being on the field, whether that special 813 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,360 Speaker 1: teams or getting after quarterbacks. And that really starts with 814 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 1: just putting his head down and going to work. Rookies 815 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,799 Speaker 1: are better seen and not heard that you don't want 816 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 1: to have guys that come in and protest too much. 817 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,800 Speaker 1: You want those guys to just understand what their role is, 818 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 1: do their job and not hurt the team. And when 819 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:54,799 Speaker 1: your job is done, then you go home. And if 820 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: he's got that nine two on. There should be good 821 00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 1: things happening out there because that name and that number 822 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:04,360 Speaker 1: should be one that brings a lot of success to 823 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:06,880 Speaker 1: this organization. There's a lot of good men that have 824 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,360 Speaker 1: warned that number and done some good things for this organization. 825 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:13,359 Speaker 1: So he can't he can't lower that standard. He's got 826 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: to be able to hold it up. And I got 827 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 1: a lot of confidence in him. And uh, you know, 828 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: if he ever needs a few pointers, you already know 829 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:21,720 Speaker 1: where he needs to come. Well, when he was drafted, 830 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,959 Speaker 1: general manager Steve Khan said, he reminds us a little 831 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 1: bit of Marcus Golden. That high motor, someone who can 832 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 1: play with great leverage. According to the general manager, while 833 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:34,879 Speaker 1: Dan McCage asked about that comp and well, he kind 834 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,120 Speaker 1: of likes it. Marcus is going. He's a great player. 835 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 1: That's actually one of the guys I've been around, um 836 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: through our ops and mini camp. You know, I've learned 837 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: a lot from him. Um, he's a great leader, and 838 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,799 Speaker 1: I actually like knew about him when he was coming 839 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 1: out of college. Um, I've watched a lot of them, 840 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 1: and he's a great player. He plays with a lot 841 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 1: of effort. Um. You know, it's like he's like he's 842 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:54,960 Speaker 1: a guy that you respect. When you put on the stape, 843 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,359 Speaker 1: you see one hundred percent effort. You see that motor, 844 00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,799 Speaker 1: you see it relentlessness, and um, you know that's that's 845 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,359 Speaker 1: a great comparison. Just learning from him, trying to get 846 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 1: as much knowledge as I can from him. You know, 847 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 1: that would take me a long way. And that learning 848 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,959 Speaker 1: and that connection MJ has already happened. I mean, those 849 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 1: two have been together now through Outa's and Mini camp 850 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 1: and it sounds like during that interview on the Big 851 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 1: Red Rage that Marcus Golden has taken young Victor under 852 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 1: his wing. And listen, if you follow Marcus Golding around 853 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: and you're gonna learn a lot. You know, we always 854 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 1: look at the energy and the passion, but he knows football. 855 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 1: He knows how to attack the quarterback. Now, Beach, when 856 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 1: you take a look at Victor from a standpoint of 857 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:37,399 Speaker 1: do you think he could put his hand the dirt 858 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 1: to see more of an outside linebacker? He can do both. 859 00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:44,439 Speaker 1: He could be the versatile type of player, and there's 860 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:46,320 Speaker 1: nothing wrong with being a tweener. That means that you 861 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,759 Speaker 1: can do a lot of different things. I remember in 862 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,800 Speaker 1: Elvis Duomerville back in the day guy that was wearing 863 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 1: the number ninety two and did some things. Wasn't the 864 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:56,879 Speaker 1: biggest guy in the world, but his play spoke big. 865 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 1: And I think for Victor he's gonna have that same opportunity. 866 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 1: If he's willing to put in the word and be 867 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:07,839 Speaker 1: tedious about the details and being an effective player, then 868 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 1: I think it doesn't matter what you ask him to do, 869 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 1: He's going to have an opportunity to be successful. He's 870 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: a smart guy. He's going to pick up one things 871 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 1: rather quickly and then it's just a matter of if 872 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 1: he's given that type of energy and effort, then only 873 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:26,240 Speaker 1: good things will come. As way smart doesn't begin to describe. 874 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:31,720 Speaker 1: It's a degree in evolutionary anthropology from Duke in addition 875 00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 1: to a four year starter at Duke Cardinals duelism as 876 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 1: an outside landbacker six two two sixty five and he's 877 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 1: only twenty one years old. A young Bertram Barry is 878 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 1: what we hope to see out of Victor D McCage. 879 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 1: How about that beatrain? You like the sound of that? 880 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:48,360 Speaker 1: I love the side of that, And you know what, 881 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:50,840 Speaker 1: I want to know, what the hell does that degree me? 882 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 1: Because that sounds like two big words that I had 883 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 1: never really heard put together. So I'm definitely intrigued by 884 00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 1: this young man. Let's get an answer to that maybe 885 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,440 Speaker 1: next week special Thanks for those behind the scenes, Jim Mohendro, 886 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 1: Cuddie Fincher for Bertrand Berry, Mike Jarecki.
