What was that 31 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: town like, man Um, It's a smaller place pretty much. 32 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: Everyone knows everyone. Whatever business you've got, I'm sure someone 33 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: else close to you knows as well. Very um. Tighten 34 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: it again, everyone knows everyone. So not a big town 35 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: and it was a nice place to grow up. Would 36 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: you pick up first a football or a basketball in Indiana? 37 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:37,239 Speaker 1: Basketball because you are in a high school state title team, right, 38 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,679 Speaker 1: What was that like, especially in Indiana? Yeah, no, it 39 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: was super dope. Um, I've got some some guys that 40 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: I played with it I'm still really cool with to 41 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: this day. Obviously, Romeo Lankford ended up going like fourteen 42 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: to the Celtics and I think he's with the Spurs now, 43 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: but um, he was on that team so that was 44 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: super cool to see him play and things like that. 45 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: So that was a cool experience. So Rondelle, were you 46 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: were you point Were you the point guard? What position 47 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: did you play on that team? Yeah? Now, I played, 48 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: um point guard. I wasn't really the guy um or 49 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: so just out there, you know, sharing the sharing the 50 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: rock and playing defensive. Be honest, if you guys want 51 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: to stay tuttle, you're probably rock stars at that point, right. Uh, yeah, 52 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 1: you can say that. It was. It was. It was 53 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: pretty cool obviously, the Whining State championship obviously in the 54 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: city of New Albany and come back and then everyone 55 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: just recognizes you simply because you were on that team. So, um, 56 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: that's pretty cool. That's crazy. I still have people who 57 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: recognize me from that team and like have no clue 58 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: like that I transferred and now I played football and 59 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. Yeah. Now, I'll go home and 60 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: someone to talk about basketball and just be like, hey, 61 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: oh my goodness, kid, can you dunk? Rondelle? Yeah? No, really? Yeah? 62 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: How old were you when you first dunked? I mean 63 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: I was older. I was probably like a sophomore in 64 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: high school. Did you ever ripped one off in a game? No? 65 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: I never got one in a game. No. So wait 66 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: a minute, Rondell, you're telling me you're what you're You're 67 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: all five seven? Is that what it is? Eight? Okay, 68 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: you're five eight. I'll give you that, and you can dunk, right, 69 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: I mean, just I'd love to see that. Okay, but 70 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: wait a minute. When you realize his viral video what 71 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: your freshman year produced, sophomore year whatever it was where 72 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 1: you squatted six hundred pounds. Yeah, then okay it kind 73 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: of makes sense. The leg strength, Yeah, it goes hand 74 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: in hand. I like to say that definitely helps for sure. 75 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: Tell us about by the way, because I remember asking 76 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: you about this before the Eagles game, and Rondale Moore 77 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: is our guest Cardinals receiver. We'll get into the football 78 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: here in a minute, but you gotta tell me that 79 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: story again about how when you were in the squad rack, 80 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: you're gonna try six hundred pounds, and by the time 81 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: you were done, you were saying, I'm never gonna do 82 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: that again. So tell us about the in between, because 83 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: I brought it up because yone hurts do the same 84 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: thing the Eagles quarterback. Yeah, a few things. Obviously, I 85 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: think I did. Like I think your original question was, 86 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: you know, how do you just decide when day you're 87 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: gonna do six hundred pounds? And for me, it was like, 88 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: and in college you max out. Obviously you don't do 89 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: that much in the NFL, but and college you have 90 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: these max out days, whether that be upper body, lower body, whatever. 91 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: So um, we were squatting, of course, and I think 92 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,679 Speaker 1: I was at five hundred. I moved it pretty easy. 93 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: I think I went five to fifty. And at that 94 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: point it's just like you want to go ten pounds 95 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: or you just want to go six hundred. So I'm like, 96 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: let's just give six hundred a ride. And what I 97 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: was telling you when I when I unwracked it, as 98 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: I'm like backing up, I can just feel my legs 99 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 1: just like shaking like crazy, and I'm like, oh, I 100 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: gotta locked this one in, Like I can't keep moving, 101 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: and then I proceeded in squad and it just took 102 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: me lower than I actually wanted to go. So it 103 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 1: was kind of tough getting out of there. But yeah, 104 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: that was kind of a backstory on it all. That 105 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: is incredible, Rondel. What about your bench? What's the most 106 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 1: you ever benched for? Five? Who? Man, that's incredible. Well, 107 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: if we'll have a breakout session later where Rondelle and 108 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: myself can tell you all about weightlifting. Okay, a little 109 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: bit later we'll get into that. We do have a 110 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: football game to talk about at Minnesota, and it was 111 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 1: let's just first get into the touchdown. Okay, my postgame 112 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,679 Speaker 1: interview with Rondelle was so miserable, Ron Wolfley, how miserable 113 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: was it? How big a fail was it? I don't 114 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 1: think I even got around your thirty eight yard touchdown? 115 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: So you take us. It isn't often a life you 116 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: get a chance to redeem yourself. So here we go. 117 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: Tell us, Rondale, if you would about the thirty eight 118 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: yard touchdown. From snap to finish, I basically had a 119 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: little snag route. It was zone, sat in the zone, 120 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: caught it tight turn. We do a draw all the 121 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: time in practice that you know involves like balls, security 122 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: and drop step in and things like that. So Hugh 123 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: shout out the fits there. But I kind of did 124 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: that and then I saw like three guys and try 125 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: to just take an angle on the safety to move 126 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: them a little bit, and I, uh, fifty four went 127 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: for the ball. Seven I think, Uh yeah, seven was 128 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: on my right. Patrick Peterson, Yeah, And I don't know, 129 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: I thought I was tackled, to be honest with you, 130 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: I just kind of tried to keep moving my legs 131 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: and then somehow got out of there and uh yeah, 132 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: ended up in so so Rondelle was last week's game, 133 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: the best game he played as a pro. Uh probably 134 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: the Minnesota game last year. Yeah, because yeah, you had 135 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: eight receptions for one hundred and fourteen and a touchdown 136 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: as well last year. What is it with you in 137 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: the Vikings? That's a great question. I'll take it, though 138 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. You know what the question is, why 139 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: don't the Cardinals make that happen more often than just 140 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,559 Speaker 1: the Vikings. In fact, that was the question of Cliff 141 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: Kingsbury about Rondelle. You know, he's dynamic. We gotta find 142 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: ways to get him the ball in space. And he 143 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: has ability to do that on any and every play, 144 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: and so it was good to see. I'm glad he 145 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: got to have some some positive plays. I think that's gonna, 146 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: you know, help him moving forward. And the report of 147 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks obviously growing now that they've been on tasks 148 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: together for a couple of straight weeks. Yeah, I mean 149 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: you did miss the first few games right with a hamstring. 150 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: So you tell us how much of a process is 151 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: it getting in sync, getting in rhythm with your quarterback, 152 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: any quarterback? Yeah, it's huge plays a big partum obviously, 153 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: just building that rapport and continuing to have reps and 154 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: just dialogue in between, you know, each and every practice. 155 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: So I think that goes a long way with just 156 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: being able to trust someone know when he's gonna do this, 157 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: when he's gonna do that. How many steps does it 158 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: take him to get flat out of a in, cut 159 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: outbreaking out, whatever it may be. So just kind of 160 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 1: those certain things play a huge role in just getting 161 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 1: on the same page with one another. So Rondell here 162 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: it is your second year, of course, or um, how 163 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 1: is this season going for you personally? Um, it's good man, 164 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: I can't complain. I'm in a great situation and bless man, 165 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: I great staff, great teammates, love coming to work every day. 166 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: Obviously Arizona is a great place to live as well, 167 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: So no complaints on this. And and with d hop back, 168 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: how's it different because you're not that far from him 169 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: in the locker room. Obviously you're in the same huddle. 170 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: I know. I think was Eno Benjamin who told us 171 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: a couple of games ago, it's like having a second 172 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,719 Speaker 1: quarterback in the huddle. Just tell us about the D 173 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: hop factor if you would. Yeah, man, he just he 174 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: just goes out there and as a ball player that 175 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: in layman's terms, like he's just a ball player. Um 176 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 1: figures it out, gets open and he just I mean 177 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: obviously he dictates coverage. So it makes it a lot 178 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: easier for us when he draws so much attention, just 179 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: makes us able to have a lot more room to 180 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: work certain things. So great to have out there. In fact, Wolf, 181 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 1: here's here's DeAndre Hopkins right and just talking about you know, 182 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: the production and how he's not surprised, not surprised at all. Obviously, 183 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: I put it into work. I had a great team 184 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: around me during those six weeks to make sure when 185 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 1: I got back that there wasn't any drop off. It's 186 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: obviously it's hard to go out and and try to 187 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: assimilate a game or or even a practice. But we 188 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,719 Speaker 1: did a good job. First game. I felt good. Second game, 189 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: I felt even better. So hopefully, UM, you know, I'll 190 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: just keep improving. Um as the year going, Rondelle, how 191 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 1: how much have you learned from DeAndre Hopkins? A ton? Again? UM, 192 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: I tell you this all the time on the field, 193 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: off the field, great great resource to have a great guy, 194 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: whether that be finding someone to cut your grass or 195 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: walk your dog or whatever case, maybe coverage, plays, whatever, 196 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: So um, that guy comes equipped with a lot of 197 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: different skills. So great guy to have on your team. 198 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: He's kind of like Larry in that regard. Larry. Back 199 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: in the day, Cliff Kingsbury liked to say about Larry, 200 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,439 Speaker 1: he just wins at life like he's got lots of 201 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: stuff figured out. He's dialed in, isn't he hop is 202 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: that guy? Isn't he? Yeah? That's a great phrase, A 203 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: great way to explain that sixth way, Rondel, how's the 204 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: body doing right now? How are you feeling? I'm good man, 205 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: I feel great. Um I think our trans staff here 206 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: does does a great job. And then Cliff obviously um 207 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: takes care of us as well. And then everything that 208 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 1: I do, um by myself or outside the facility is 209 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: paid dividends for me this year. So, um, I've been 210 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: feeling good. You helped Greg Dortch feel better after that muffpunt, 211 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,439 Speaker 1: didn't you. You made a comment to the media that 212 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: it happened to you last season, and just recount that 213 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: if you wouldn't mind and what indeed you did. Maybe 214 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: he had to say to to Greg Dortch after what 215 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 1: was a pretty decisive and instrumental play, game changing playing 216 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: that loss in Minnesota. Yeah, um, obviously again, like you 217 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: just said, I've been there before last year in Green Bay, 218 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: so I know that feeling. I kind of know. Um, 219 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: you know what you want to hear there and what 220 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: you don't want to hear. So for me, it's just 221 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: like YO, keep being you keep balling, don't try to 222 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: be anyone ext for you. Whatever you do is enough, man, 223 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: and you know we're still riding when you still trust you. 224 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,839 Speaker 1: So and he knows that. Again, he's been in the league. 225 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: This is fourth year, so I mean he's been on 226 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 1: playing different teams. He saw a lot of different things. 227 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: So on Deutsch a really savvy player, strong headed guy, 228 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: so he knows that, you know, we still trust them, 229 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: still riding with him and got all belief in him. 230 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: So talk to us a little bit if you don't 231 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: mind about the offense generally speaking right now, how do 232 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 1: you think the offense has performed? Where do you have 233 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: to get better? Yeah, man, I think we've progressed and 234 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: made really big strides. Honestly, Um, I think where we 235 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: just need to get better is obviously not hurting ourselves. 236 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: I think the game plan we put in is great. 237 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: I think we have the talent around us to be 238 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,199 Speaker 1: really good. And again, we're a few plays away from 239 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: from being, you know, one of the most explosive offenses 240 00:12:55,800 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: in this league. So again, I think it's just the 241 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 1: things we do to ourselves. So whether that be penalties 242 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 1: or just like little things and uh, it's things that 243 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: are fixable. And luckily we've got everyone back and we're 244 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 1: continuing to work through those things and we're getting better. 245 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: So I know, one of the messages and we're on 246 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: board with Rondel Moore Cardinals receiver was about the urgency 247 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: that's needed at this moment, not just being three and five, 248 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: but what you just cited, right, everyone's got to lock in. 249 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: You got eliminate those missed assignments and alignments. But it's 250 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: up to the players, isn't it. Yeah, No, for sure, 251 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: And again we've we've done a good job with just 252 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 1: communication throughout the week and um, I mean previously to 253 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: this week as well. UM, just just trying to figure 254 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: it out and realizing like it's it's up to us 255 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: to figure this thing out. The coaches can't go out 256 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: there and play for us. They can give us the 257 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: game plan, but you know it's it's it's us as 258 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: a as a collective group to go out there and 259 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 1: just do our jobs. If we can, If every person 260 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 1: on the field can do their job for one play 261 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: and continue to do at the whole game, I think 262 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: we've we've got a pretty good shot. It's a big 263 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: game against Seattle. We'll talk about the Seahawks, the first 264 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 1: place Seahawks when we come back. With Rondale Moore on 265 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: the big red rage presented by Santan Ford in Gilbert 266 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: snaps to Kyler drops back Fire's left side. It's caught 267 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: for the first down by more at the forty at 268 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: the forty five of the fifty, handled the forty five 269 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: a Minnesota and tackled at the forty three. Murrian shotgun 270 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: takes the snap, drops back to pass, looks right, throws 271 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: hit more, fought at thirty, turns right twenty five, twenty four, 272 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: breaks a tackle to the ten till the five touchdown. 273 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 1: There's the explosive play, a huge response by Arizona that 274 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: is fantastic right there. I'm about Rondale Moore with its 275 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: twenty seven yard catch thirty eight yard touchdown at Minnesota. 276 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: And here's the question I wanted to ask in the 277 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: last segment. It was we continue with a big red 278 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: rage presented by santan Ford and Gilbert We are satan Ford. 279 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: Do you realize that you left Patrick Peterson with a 280 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: handful of fabric that he had the tail end of 281 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: your under shirt? Do you realize that? Uh? Yeah, no, Um. 282 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: I think our Instagram page I posted something. I saw 283 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: a picture obviously during the game. I mean I didn't know, 284 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: but I saw a picture of our Instagram page. I 285 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: posted how angry was Pat p out there Rondelle? I 286 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: mean he was barking at the Cardinals sideline pregame, during 287 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: the game, post game, My goodness, Yeah, I mean he's 288 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: he's a competitor. Um can't fall. The guy goes out there, 289 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: works his tail off. He's you know, has a ton 290 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: of respect around this league, and he's been a good 291 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: player for a long time. So he's just the ultimate competitor. 292 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: And obviously a little emotions get involved in everything, and 293 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: you know he's just trying to win, just like everybody else. 294 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: So Rondel, what kind of pro are you? Are you 295 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: a guy that likes to hang around the facility building 296 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: and stay there late and do all your film work there? 297 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: Do you like or do you like to go home? 298 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: Do you like to go home, get away a little separation, 299 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: watch a lot of tape at home? Which type of 300 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: pro are you? Somebody likes to hang out in the 301 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: facility building or at home? I think I've kind of 302 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: involved in that aspect. I remember being in college and 303 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: I would enjoy being at the facility all day and 304 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: doing all that kind of stuff. Now it's just like 305 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: I'm a work at work and whatever I need to 306 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 1: get done here, I'll get done here and then I'll 307 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: go home and pretty much do all the rest of 308 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: my studying and take watching. And I think the biggest 309 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: thing that has changed from college until now is just 310 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: the things that I do outside of work. So obviously, 311 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: going home to eat, I've got a I mean I 312 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: hired a chef, and if I have to get a massage, 313 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: my masseus is coming to my home. And then I 314 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: have another person who does my body work that includes 315 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 1: like faster stretching and things of that sort. I go 316 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: see my chiropractor. So a day is just really busy 317 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: for me as far as just maintenance on my body, 318 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: keeping my mental right. And then I've got two dogs 319 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: at home as well. So what kind of dogs? I've 320 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 1: got a French bulldog and then exhale American bully. Whoa 321 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 1: what about names? Man? My frenchie is a saint, and 322 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: then my bully is king. It's pretty good though, I mean, 323 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: year two and you've already instituted all that sort of 324 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,239 Speaker 1: work away from the facility. But then I look here, 325 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: your bionus says you earned a degree in business from 326 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: Purdue and two and a half years. Come on, now 327 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: that's a type all right. No, I got it done quick, man. 328 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: I I basically got to campus in the summer of 329 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen and sat down with my advisor and sorry, hey, 330 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 1: this is my plan. I want to be gone in 331 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,360 Speaker 1: three years and I want to get my degree. So 332 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: we kind of scheduled it out and uh, luckily I 333 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: was able to finish and every all the classes aligned 334 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:52,360 Speaker 1: and I got it done. So Rundown, you're getting ready 335 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: to play obviously the Seattle Seahawks. Um this Sunday at 336 00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 1: State Farm Stadium. Give me your thoughts on the Seahawk quarterbacks. 337 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: Um Man, I think they present a lot of different 338 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: talents and things of that sort. Um. They've got some 339 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 1: longer guys out there. Um. They got a guy that 340 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 1: Nicko who's patient, he's good. I enjoy going against him, 341 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 1: A really competitive guy. So I think they do a 342 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: lot of things well. And obviously they play some zone 343 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: um and they'll they'll play man here and there, but 344 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 1: his own team. So again, they kind of get into 345 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 1: that Ben don't break defense and try to keep everything 346 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: in front of him. Yeah. DeAndre Hopkins to the media, 347 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: brought up on his own they're round five rookie, the 348 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,439 Speaker 1: six four Tariq Woolen from seven yeah, yeah, and he 349 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: runs a four two six yeah. Former receiver somehow lasted 350 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 1: until round five and he's legit on film, isn't he? 351 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: And now he's a good player. Um does a good 352 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 1: job of being patient, using his length and making plays. 353 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: How would you characterize stec Hawks defense? I mean you 354 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,959 Speaker 1: mentioned a little bit the fact they play zone a 355 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: lot more zone than they do man. But are they 356 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: high pressure team that they like to come after you 357 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,439 Speaker 1: at all? They'll do some things. They'll they'll walk some 358 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: guys down in the box and then not a ton, 359 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: but they'll bring a little bit Um. But again they 360 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: stick to you know, zone coverage and again just keep 361 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: everything in front of them. Yeah, and that's the rage, 362 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: right guys, This whole zaw zone too high safety. It's 363 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: not just the Cardinals who are facing everyone gets in 364 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: my homes, Josh Allen, doesn't matter. What's the key as 365 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 1: an offense, Stay on schedule, Um, keep the ball moving, 366 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 1: Try not to get in third and long situations. Obviously, Um, 367 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: you don't want to have penalties and things of that 368 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: sort that that move you back that for shoot of 369 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: run plays that you didn't want to run or things 370 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: like that. So again, just staying on schedule, UM. And 371 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 1: that means trying to stay in short distance down so 372 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: second and three, third and third and two, third and 373 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: four and things of that. Third and manageable or things 374 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: like that. So I just continuing to move the wall 375 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 1: up the field. So when the first meeting a couple 376 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: of weeks ago, you were targeted ten times, had six 377 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 1: receptions for forty nine yards. How did the Seahawks play 378 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: you the first time? We' wrong again? Zone? That was that? Yeah, yeah, 379 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: we did get a little jam you a little una. 380 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: They were most mostly all yeah, three they said a 381 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: lot of three. I saw a lot of three that 382 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: Nickel would carry quarters now played two. So so you know, 383 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,239 Speaker 1: it was amazing. Your Cliff Kingsbury yesterday and we're on 384 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: board here with Rondale Moore, Cardinals receiver say that so 385 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: far this season that Cardinals have trailed ninety one percent 386 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: of the game time. Who think about that? Who? So 387 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: in Cliff readily admits it takes you out of your 388 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: game plan. It shuts you become one dimensional. If you're 389 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: chasing the game and you're trailing, how how far would 390 00:20:58,480 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: it go as an offense if you could just get 391 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 1: that balance, Rondelle, because you weren't able to run the 392 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: ball against Minnesota, and that changes a lot, doesn't it. Yeah, Um, 393 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: everything you do in this league is predicated off of 394 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: who can run the ball really well and who can't. Um, 395 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: Obviously you want to be able to run the ball, 396 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: so they've got to bring more guys in the box, 397 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: and obviously that's when you get your one on one. 398 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 1: Then you get coverages that you know you want to 399 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 1: throw the ball in. So UM, I think we've we've 400 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: been doing a better job of running the ball. UM. 401 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,880 Speaker 1: So I think for us it's just execution and just 402 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 1: communicating and get it all figure out. I think we've 403 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: got some really good backs who can who can take 404 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 1: it to the house, and now the ability to do 405 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 1: a lot of different things. So UM, ton of confidence 406 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: in those guys and the guys up front. So would 407 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: you say it is a must that you guys take 408 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: more shots down the field as well? And if so, White, again, 409 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 1: I think it's just a stand on schedule. Um. I 410 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: think the coaches do do a great job of um 411 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 1: drawing up schemes and plays that allow us to thrive 412 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:05,959 Speaker 1: in our different roles. So if a shot presents itself, 413 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: I'm sure Kyler would take it. But again, it's all 414 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 1: kind of just depending on what they give us. You know, 415 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: they go too high shell and decide to drop aid 416 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: and things like that. Then obviously like there's not too 417 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: many shots you could take there. But so it just 418 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 1: depends on what the defense gives us. And you know, 419 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: Kyler do a great job of giving and you'll take 420 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: every shot they give you down the field, won't you. 421 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: Because this offseason started with your receiver's coach, Shawn Jefferson 422 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,360 Speaker 1: sitting in that chair right there in late February. First 423 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 1: we talked about his son winning the Super Bowl. Then 424 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: we talked about the Cardinals and he talked on his 425 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 1: own just about how they needed to target you more downfield. 426 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 1: And Wolf gets it on Twitter as the team's color analysts. Right, 427 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: I mean, how many times are they gonna run Rondale 428 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 1: more horizontally? Right? They want to see you downfield as well. 429 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: So and we saw that against Minnesota, didn't we. Yeah, 430 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: And again whatever they draw up, I'm just trying to 431 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: go out there and execute. And obviously I can do 432 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: a better job at breaking tackles and um just just 433 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 1: being a guy. So whatever they decide to throw at me, 434 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna go try to execute. So do you 435 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: like lining up in the backfield? And if you are 436 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 1: going to line up in the backfield, do you want 437 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: the ball? Would you run the ball? Yeah? No, I 438 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,959 Speaker 1: mean again whatever, I think. I come with a lot 439 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,959 Speaker 1: of different skills that enable me to do a lot 440 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: of different things. And they want me to run in 441 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: between the tackles that they want me to run outside zone. Um, 442 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: if they want me to go play in the slide 443 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: or they want to play outside whatever, And if they're 444 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: going to give me the ball, I'll are you good 445 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: at running the stretch, play the outside zone? Um? I 446 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: mean do you like it? Again? I'm with whatever? Every 447 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 1: game with me, he'll return punts, which he does, so 448 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: you know what, absolutely, And look, the urgency is such 449 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 1: right now with three straight division games and the Cardinals 450 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 1: at three and five. In fact, Kyler was asked just 451 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,679 Speaker 1: about that sense of urgency right here right now, you know, 452 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: since urgency has got to be at all the time high. Um, 453 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: A lot of guys understand that they know what's at stake, 454 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,120 Speaker 1: you know, they know where we can take this thing. Um, 455 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: well we can we can let it, you know, slip away. 456 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 1: But everything is right there for us, But I mean, 457 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: we're focused on this week, so I can't really look 458 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,680 Speaker 1: too far ahead, but we understand what's you know, what's ahead? 459 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: What do you think so far the week of practice 460 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: including rain today, which is interesting, makes sense it's Seattle week. 461 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: But what do you think? How was a team band 462 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: this week? Great? I think the communication has been really great. 463 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: I think the energy has been really high. We've done 464 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: a good job of executing, done a good job of 465 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: studying the film, talking with each other and getting things right, 466 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: correct in things, and again just being urgent and being 467 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 1: intentional about being at work and making sure we're working 468 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: at work. If there's one thing you guys are going 469 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: to have to do in order to beat Seattle, what 470 00:24:55,760 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 1: would you say? Stay on schedule? And again, just to 471 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 1: kind of reiterate what that means. It just means, you know, 472 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: not getting in third and long and limiting penalties and 473 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,439 Speaker 1: you know, mental errors and making sure our splits are 474 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,199 Speaker 1: correct and things like like that. So just doing all 475 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: those sort of little things, and that's why they play 476 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: that soft shell right everything in front of them. They 477 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: want the unforced errors right. So how about the hard 478 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 1: knocks cameras that are everywhere you're looking forward to the 479 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: debut on Wednesday. What are you thinking there? Same thing 480 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: to me, man, just trying to come to work, do 481 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: my job. It doesn't bother me. I think they do 482 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 1: a good job of kind of standing out the way 483 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:39,359 Speaker 1: and getting footage however they can so again doesn't bother 484 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: me either way. You know, Wolf keeps angling for a 485 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 1: lot of camera time. I hope your tea. I hope 486 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 1: your teammates aren't doing the same, you know, I mean, 487 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: my goodness, just act as you are. Just act natural, right, Rondale, 488 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: Come on, Yeah, for sure. Rondale, thank you man. We 489 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: really appreciate it. I appreciate you guys looking forward to 490 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: this one. This I'm very curious to see what this 491 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: Cardinal's off fence looks like now that they have a 492 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: full compliment of weapons going against Seattle and coming off 493 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: the game. Rondale just heads so we'll see, especially against 494 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: that secondary special. Thanks to Rondale. More, we continue with 495 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: a big red rage was in a by Santan Ford 496 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: in Gilbert pick third down for the Cardinals, a minute 497 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: to go here on the third third and five for 498 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: the Vikings on their thirty shotguns snapped the Cousins straight 499 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: dropped that in trouble hit. The ball is pumbled, Isaiah 500 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: Simmons chopped it out and Isaiah Simmons recovers it. Well, 501 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 1: what a play. Two plays by Isaiah Simmons. He strips 502 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: the ball and then he recovers it big time by 503 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 1: the former top ten pick, the X factor. Isaiah Simmons 504 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: came out of plitz beat his man, got his left 505 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 1: palm and knocked a pig away from Cousins, a script 506 00:26:55,960 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 1: sack for Isaiah Simmons. The Cardinals would get a field 507 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,199 Speaker 1: goal not long after. It would be twenty eight twenty six, 508 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 1: and then the faithful fumbling of the football, the muff punt, 509 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: Cardinals turn it over full Viking score and yes, the 510 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 1: game goes down to the last play, but the Cardinals 511 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: on the short end. Thirty four twenty six. You heard 512 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 1: Rondale Moore, a very special guest here on the Big 513 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: Red Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert Paul Kelvs 514 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: here Ron Wolfley there and we heard Greg Dortch and 515 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: what he heard from Rondale Moore, right, what Rondamo shared 516 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: with him, and that's good stuff that as second year 517 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: player he was that guy in the Thursday night game 518 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: against Green Bay a year ago, a critical muff punt 519 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: that ended up in a turnover, and so he went 520 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: over he could relate to it, and he was the 521 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: guy who tried to pick up Greg Dortch. Yeah, Paully, 522 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: you know, for me, that really was the story of 523 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: the game right there. Not only the turnovers, of course, 524 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 1: but the line of scrimmage. The line of scrimmage on 525 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 1: both sides of the ball. In particular, I would say 526 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings in that first half really control the 527 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. Poly you go back and you look 528 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 1: at it. They rushed the ball twelve times and run 529 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: down situation. I'm talking about first and ten second and 530 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: one to six rundown situation where the defense for the 531 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,679 Speaker 1: most part kind of has a suspicion that you're going 532 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: to run the ball. They ran at twelve times and 533 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: run down for one hundred yards. Polly. Now, the second half, 534 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: of course, they did a great job of shutting it down. 535 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: They did. As a matter of fact, the Minnesota Vikings 536 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,439 Speaker 1: ran it ten times and run down situation in the 537 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: second half for only twenty seven yards, So great adjustments. 538 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: Of course, at the half, but man, it was too late. 539 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: At that point in time. The Arizona Cardinals could not 540 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: run the ball, they couldn't control the line of scrimmage 541 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: on either side, and they turned the ball over way 542 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: too much. Not totally unlike the Week two game against 543 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: Minnesota a year ago where Minnesota ran all over the 544 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: Cardinals until halftime and the mother of all adjustments and 545 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: then they shut it down in the second half. Good 546 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: point in the first half this game, eight point four 547 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: yards of care area as a team. That Cardinals did 548 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: better as a rush defense in the second half, but 549 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: still wolf when you get out rushed overall in the 550 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: game one seventy three to seventy eight. You're Cliff Kingsbury 551 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: talk about that after the game tolder yards were almost even. 552 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: But when the other offense is balanced and you're not, Yeah, 553 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: it just it tends to shut down what's available on 554 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: the playsheet. You're Rondell Moore talk about that, and and 555 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury has mentioned that numerous times. And we sighted 556 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: the stat where the Cardinals have trailed ninety one percent 557 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: of the play time this year, and all of that combined, 558 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: it just feels like, you know, you know, and I 559 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: know Cliff doesn't want to come on and say it, 560 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,479 Speaker 1: but in those situations you have to be handcuffed as 561 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: a play caller. Yeah no, yeah, you are, Polly and Boy. 562 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 1: That really is the difference I would say this year 563 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 1: as opposed to what we were seeing last year. Would 564 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: it shock you, Polly if I told you that going 565 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: into December. I'm talking about at the end of November, 566 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: going into December Week one of December. Would it shock 567 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: you to know the Arizona Cardinals were number five and 568 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: run rate in the National Football League last year? I 569 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: mean they going into December. They were still number five 570 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: all season long, in September and October and even well 571 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: into November, they were like top three in terms of 572 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: running the ball. I'm talking about how many times they 573 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: ran the ball and it wasn't because Kyler Murray was 574 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: pulling the ball down and running it. He was not 575 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: doing that. It's a matter of fact, right, So they 576 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: need to get back to being able to run the 577 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: ball the way that they were when their offense was 578 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: really humming in the first ten twelve weeks of the season. 579 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: You know, I remember that stat. Now you know why 580 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 1: because on his TV show, you brought that up Kingsbury 581 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: and he made one of those Gallos humor type jokes. 582 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 1: He said, what was this comedy? Said, Yeah, we're gonna 583 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: have to do something about that. We gotta change that. Yeah, 584 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: he did not like that. He doesn't want to be 585 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: known as the guy who runs, but he does. We'll 586 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: do with Paulie. And that's the thing about Cliff that 587 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: not enough people, I think understand He's not dogmatic. Man. 588 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: This is no Chip Kelly situation where it's gonna be 589 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: the air raid. It's gonna be my way, or it's 590 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: gonna be the highway. I'm gonna go out, I'm gonna 591 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: change the game of football or you know what time 592 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: Just like, No, that is not that is not who 593 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: he is. He's gonna do what he needs to do 594 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 1: to put his team in in the best chance of 595 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: winning games. Now. I know there's a lot of people 596 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: right now that are really really angry, that are really upset. 597 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 1: But I can tell you the answer is in the 598 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: next three games and through the NFC West door. And look, 599 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: Cardinal's got to figure out a way to run the 600 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 1: ball when Kyler Murray is your leading rusher, you know, 601 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 1: and he's not having a hundred yard rushing game. Then 602 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: guess what that is a problem. And yes, you had 603 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: three backups on that offensive line. I get it. You're 604 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: on your third center, you're on your third left guard, 605 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 1: you have Josh Jones instead of your franchise left tackle 606 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 1: DJ Humphrey's And that might be the case. On Sunday, 607 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to figure this out. But otherwise you're 608 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: gonna end up taking yet another l And like Isaiah 609 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: Simmons said, so well, he made a couple of big plays, 610 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: but once again, the entire team lost in Minnesota thirty 611 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: four to twenty six. Here's Isaiah personally, I just I 612 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,719 Speaker 1: hate losing. I hate losing more than I like winning. 613 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,479 Speaker 1: You know. For me, I just feel like there's definitely 614 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: things that need to be addressed, things that we need 615 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 1: to clean up. No need to point fingers at anything. 616 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: These are we're competing, we're in the games, but we 617 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: just gotta take it to another level. Look, they won't 618 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: point fingers, but but I will. I will. Here we go. Yeah, 619 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: when the two safeties are the two leading tacklers, that's 620 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 1: a problem. Ye When Buddha Baker and Jail and Thompson, 621 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: when JT is right up there with Buddha and there 622 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: you're leading tacklers. When Kirk Cousins is getting loose for 623 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: a seventeen yard touchdown run, and even his head coach 624 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: and play caller Kevin O'Connell and NFL Films that released 625 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: the clip, even he was like, whoa, that's a no 626 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: compress didn't expect that to happen because too often the 627 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: Cardinals were busting the edge they didn't have to run support, 628 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: and then near the goal line they were able to 629 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 1: run up the middle. There's a lot to fix on 630 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball if you ask me. Yeah, Paul, 631 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: you know, in the defense, as we all know, has 632 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: really gotten better over the course of this season. We 633 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: all know how they started against Kansas City and really 634 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: I would say the first two quarters of course against 635 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 1: the Las Vegas writers as well, But this defense has 636 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: really surprised over delivered for the most part until the 637 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings game. In my opinion, totally agree. In fact, 638 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: you know, Isaiah Simmons, they know they got to get 639 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 1: this right. He was talking to the media this week, 640 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: just the importance of a division game against the division 641 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: leading Seattle Seahawks year two games below five hundred. Again, 642 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: Isaiah Simmons, you know this is definitely the most important game, 643 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: really just because it's the mixed game, but just understanding that, 644 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: you know, we still can write our destiny. So you know, 645 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: I think everybody understands what the importance of this game 646 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: is and what it can do for us. There you go, Look, 647 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: we set it off the top the gauntlet. You have 648 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: three straight division games. These teams know each other very well. 649 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: And the last time you played Seattle, guess what you 650 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 1: did not score a touchdown on offense. Yes, so and Pouli. 651 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 1: They're playing better defensively now than when the Arizona Cardinals 652 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 1: met him in week six. Yeah, they have more personnel 653 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 1: al woods there, big interior defensive lineman didn't play in 654 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: that game. You know. Talking to guys in the locker 655 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:33,879 Speaker 1: room today, you know they're gonna come in there. They're 656 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: gonna put five along that defensive front, which they weren't 657 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: necessarily doing back in Week six. They're gonna use those 658 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 1: three big interior defensive lineman. They're gonna stuff the run 659 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,360 Speaker 1: on the interior, and then they're gonna play that soft 660 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: shell zone with some really talented young cornerbacks, including Tarique Woolen. 661 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 1: We brought it up with rondel Moore because DeAndre Hopkins 662 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 1: brought them up. When you get a shout out unsolicited 663 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,359 Speaker 1: from d hop as a fifth round rookie who has 664 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 1: four or se options, And if you're trying to remember 665 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: who that guy was, twenty seven was a guy who 666 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 1: picked off the ball at the end against Hollywood Brown 667 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: when Hollywood Brown went down with a foot and ankle injury. Yeah, 668 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 1: he was the guy who had just made Hollywood and 669 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: Kyler his four straight game with a pick. Yeah, you know, Paul, 670 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 1: this is what Seattle's gonna do. They did it, and 671 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: it worked the first time they played. But I would 672 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,399 Speaker 1: expect them to be a little bit more aggressive in 673 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:28,800 Speaker 1: terms of third down, especially early on, because they really weren't. 674 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 1: They're known as a team that's gonna play a ton 675 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,240 Speaker 1: of zone. Rondel Moore, of course talking to us about 676 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 1: that very thing. They're gonna play an awful lot of zone. 677 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,240 Speaker 1: They're gonna rush four, they're gonna drop seven, they're gonna 678 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: rush five every now and then. I would not be surprised, though, 679 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 1: to see them drop a blitz, especially early on, just 680 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: to try to get inside of Kyler's head, just to 681 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: try to get inside of the play caller Cliff Kingsbury, 682 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 1: just to try to get inside the protection schemes of 683 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals and let them know, Oh yeah, you know, 684 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: you think we're just gonna rush for and drop seven 685 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 1: and play his own. No, that's not going to be 686 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 1: the case. We're also going to come with a little chicaganery. 687 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: Because Wolf, if there's one thing you could have proven 688 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 1: offense right now, wouldn't it be third down? Your third 689 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 1: down percentage? You are four of eleven against Minnesota. That's 690 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 1: been really problematic. And just like Cliff Kingsbury doesn't like 691 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: to admit that he likes to run the ball, Ron 692 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 1: Wolfley doesn't like to admit that he has all the numbers. 693 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: I mean, Wolf, what is the Cardinals percentage on third 694 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 1: down this season? I know you know you know what 695 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: I don't know, Polly. I do know their number twenty 696 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 1: seven in the league. Okay, I don't know the back number, 697 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 1: but I will tell you math and me. It doesn't 698 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 1: go together. Well, Paul, you know that it doesn't end well. 699 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: They are number twenty seven in third down? Think about 700 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: that Matt that is that's big. They've got to get 701 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 1: up into the top half of the league. Hey, Episode 702 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 1: forty a the Day Pash podcast featuring ASU men's basketball 703 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,439 Speaker 1: coach Bobby Hurley, and is a good one. I heard 704 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 1: some of it, I guess by your prefer Pride podcast 705 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 1: provider or on Twitter via pashpod. We continue with a 706 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 1: big red rage presented by Santan Ford in Gilbert snapped 707 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,439 Speaker 1: a Murray short set throws lopside of the end zone, 708 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 1: plum handed catch for a touchdown by DeAndre Hopkins. Oh 709 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 1: my goodness, he stabbed that out of the air with 710 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 1: his left hand, pulled it in prey. Huge cardinal scorn. 711 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 1: Fantastic chemistry between Kyler Murray, that DeAndre Hopkins and you 712 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 1: talk about those daggers, those stealing knives. Stabbed the pig 713 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 1: with his lopt hand out of the air. That's right, Wolf, 714 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: You and Pash called it. He never even used the 715 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: right hand except when he put his finger to his mouth. 716 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 1: The crowd in Minnesota, That's that's why he wanted to 717 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 1: have one hand free. He's cold, bully, He's cold man. 718 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 1: Twelve catches on thirteen targets of Buck fifty nine a touchdown. 719 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: I know he is at about the one they did 720 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: not connect on. It sort of looked like maybe he 721 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,319 Speaker 1: got his head around late or the passes a little early. 722 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:10,319 Speaker 1: I'm not exactly sure, but you know it look and 723 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 1: I asked him this week, wolf and it's the Big 724 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: Red Rage presented by Santan Ford in Gilbert Paul kelvc 725 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 1: Run Wolfley in the return of DeAndre Hopkins, who's just 726 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 1: been phenomenal in his two appearances and so productive. And 727 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,359 Speaker 1: it's been a different use of DeAndre Hopkins. You can 728 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: just watch it and you can see how much more 729 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: they're moving him around from different starting spots. The next 730 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: gen stats verify it, and hop you know, we talked 731 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 1: to him about it this week and he said, yeah, 732 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 1: he said, you know, that wasn't offseason point of emphasis, 733 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 1: and it just gives him a little bit of an 734 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,440 Speaker 1: advantage of other teams can't lock in on his starting 735 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 1: spot because you know they're coming in hell bet on 736 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: stopping DeAndre Hopkins at least two games in. They can't. Yeah, PAULA, 737 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 1: listen all last year of course, they took DeAndre Hopkins 738 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: and ninety nine point nine percent of the time, he 739 00:38:58,239 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: was going to be lined up to the loft and 740 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 1: he was going to be the split, the wide, the 741 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,439 Speaker 1: number one receiver to the left man. So far, we've 742 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,840 Speaker 1: seen it all and he's been back in two games 743 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:11,359 Speaker 1: and they've moved him the left over to the right. 744 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 1: Of course, he's a number one receiver, meaning he's the 745 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: widest receiver on either the right side or the left side. 746 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 1: He's in the slot on both sides. Paul, they've actually 747 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 1: put him in motion as well. I mean, we've seen 748 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:29,360 Speaker 1: it all with DeAndre Hopkins, and you know what that 749 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,240 Speaker 1: feels like an evolution to me. You know, that feels 750 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: like a next step for me. Keeping him on one side, 751 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 1: I think that did a lot to help Kyler Murray 752 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: clear it up the read for Kyler Murray. But now 753 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 1: they're moving him around, and maybe Kyler is taking that 754 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 1: next step as well as to how to read coverage 755 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 1: based on where he is, whether he's in motion, whether 756 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:53,719 Speaker 1: he's in the slot, whether he's lined up as a 757 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 1: number one. Maybe this is the next step here and 758 00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,360 Speaker 1: after that, Paul, I would say, show me how Kyler 759 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 1: Murray spreads the ball. Now that they're moving de Hoop around, 760 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 1: that's the next step. Yeah, and now can they cash 761 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 1: it in? Can they be better on third die? Can 762 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: they be better in the red zone? Can they turn 763 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: some of these drives into touchdowns? And DeAndre Hopkins talking 764 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 1: to the media once again, one of the questions is 765 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 1: just about the offensive struggles at times and how it's 766 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,400 Speaker 1: Wayne if it's Wayne on anyone. Now, I don't think 767 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,720 Speaker 1: it's Wain on anyone. It's a long season. The division 768 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 1: is stilled off of grabs, and so for us, it 769 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: is thinking about the things that we did right, trying 770 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 1: to trying to improve those and things obviously that we 771 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 1: didn't do right. Definitely working on nose in practice. But 772 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 1: for us, we don't panic. Now they get a Seahawks 773 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 1: defense wolf that has been balling basically ever since the 774 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 1: Cardinals game in Week six. They have turned it around 775 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 1: big time. They forced fourteen fumbles in eight games. They 776 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 1: just held Sequon Barkley to a season low fifty three 777 00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:59,760 Speaker 1: yards rushing two point seven yards a carry. Hello, remember 778 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 1: the Giant Center with a number two rushing offense in 779 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:05,240 Speaker 1: the NFL. They hold the Chargers to fifty three yards rushing. 780 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 1: In between those two games, the Cardinals and the Giants 781 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,279 Speaker 1: They've added thirty five year old Bruce Irvin who had 782 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 1: forty seven snaps last week. He just missed two sacks. 783 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 1: He's been dynamic. And then the secondary has been revamped. 784 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,319 Speaker 1: There you go, and Tariq Wolan and company. They have 785 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: looked really good, absolutely, Polly. And listen, you know what 786 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 1: a big fan I am of the quarterback rating. Okay, 787 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 1: not the QBR. I'm talking about the passer rating. The 788 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,879 Speaker 1: quarterback rating in the NFL. More times than nods over 789 00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: the course of an entire season. You look at who's 790 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: in the top ten in quarterback rating and guess what, 791 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 1: it's the usual names, Polly. It is the best quarterbacks 792 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,440 Speaker 1: in the league that have a high quarterback rating. That 793 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 1: tells me, Paul, there must be something to that metric, right, 794 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 1: there's something to that. Well, now, flip that quarterback metric 795 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 1: over for a defense. It's called the defensive quarterback rating. Okay, 796 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 1: In other words, how do you play against the pass defensively? Well, 797 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks, they were high nineties. The first time 798 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals played him. They were not rated it 799 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:15,719 Speaker 1: well at all. Now over the last three games they 800 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 1: have lowered that to seventy six point zero Paul, seventy six, 801 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:22,920 Speaker 1: which is not a good day for a quarterback. For 802 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 1: the most part, seventy six point zero. They have brought 803 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 1: it down in three games this scoring. Defensively, they were 804 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: allowing thirty points over thirty points a game when the 805 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 1: Cardinals played him the first time in three weeks. Three 806 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 1: weeks later, now all of a sudden, they're allowing fifteen 807 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 1: points a game over that stretch, Paul. So they are 808 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:48,400 Speaker 1: playing very very well defensively. And what's so maddening about it, 809 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 1: what I just want to gouge my eyes out about 810 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 1: is the fact that this is the way it's been 811 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 1: for the Seattle Seahawks the last three years. I'm talking 812 00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:00,719 Speaker 1: about twenty twenty, twenty twenty one. In twenty twenty two, 813 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:03,759 Speaker 1: they struggled in the first half of the season defensively, 814 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 1: and then for whatever reason Pete Carroll, it got fixed 815 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 1: in the second half. We've seen that three consecutive years. 816 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,359 Speaker 1: I think now, if you want to go ahead and say, hey, 817 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 1: Week six was really the start of this renaissance they've 818 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:23,239 Speaker 1: experienced defensively, Yeah, it's a great point because remember four, 819 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 1: the Cardinals played him in Week six. They were coming 820 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,920 Speaker 1: off a loss to the Saints, and Pete Carroll's comment was, 821 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 1: they ran it down our throat. That was unacceptable because 822 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 1: New Orleans had run for two thirty five and it 823 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,120 Speaker 1: was the fourth straight opponent to rush for one hundred 824 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 1: and forty five yards or more. So they've dialed down 825 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 1: the rush defense, and then everything has followed. They've become 826 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: a really sound defense, and they become opportunistic. And look 827 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 1: who even what happened in that Cardinals game at Seattle 828 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: on a sunny day. The Cardinals started four or five 829 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 1: on third down and then went oh for eleven the 830 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 1: rest of the game. They were one for five on 831 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 1: fourth down. Remember, they were impelled to go for on 832 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 1: four town because they didn't have Matt Prators, so they 833 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 1: didn't go for field goal attempts at thirty eight, forty five, 834 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,919 Speaker 1: and forty one yards. So it was a different game 835 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:13,960 Speaker 1: without Prador and the Cardinals were held in check big 836 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,800 Speaker 1: time over the last three quarters by the Seahawks. Holyeah, 837 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 1: I just honestly, I think I want to bring it 838 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: back to the line of scrimmage. Man, who this game 839 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 1: is going to be won or lost on the line 840 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,719 Speaker 1: of scrimmage. You gotta be able to run the ball. 841 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 1: You gotta be able to protect Kyler Murray. Put him 842 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,719 Speaker 1: in a balanced offense. It's going to start and end 843 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 1: on the line of scrimmage. Billy Price your center, Cody Ford, 844 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,439 Speaker 1: your left guard, Josh Jones your left tackle. Indeed, that's 845 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 1: what happens. Then guess what you know You're gonna have 846 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,920 Speaker 1: to pull it off with backups on three fists or 847 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 1: your offensive lot within ball. Special Thanks Ron Dale Moore. 848 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 1: Great to have the young receiver. He had a great game. 849 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,839 Speaker 1: Look for more that, maybe even some Robbie Anderson this week. 850 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 1: Jim Alma hundred.
