Speaker 5: Two things we said. Two things have rocked the NFL
Speaker 5: this week. Number one, the Card's big dub against Big
Speaker 5: d turning that Cowboys defense into all hat no cattle
Speaker 5: we done reckon. And number two the Taylor Swift Effect.
Speaker 5: How Travis Kelsey Wolf is now added five hundred thousand
Speaker 5: IG followers and his merch sales are up over four
Speaker 5: hundred percent. By the way, Patrick Mahomes confirming yesterday that
Speaker 5: he has now officially met Taylor Swift. If you're wondering,
Speaker 5: and I know you are, Wolf Kelsey and Taylor Swift
Speaker 5: the escaped Arrowhead Stadium in a secret getaway car after
Speaker 5: the game, and Kelsey now reports that he has spotted
Speaker 5: paparazzi in his front yard.
Speaker 1: That is unbelievable, Pully, It is the Taylor Swift of
Speaker 1: it is. And I know you know all about that
Speaker 1: being the swift you.
Speaker 5: Are, by the way. You beat me to that joke.
Speaker 5: By the way, the first Sunday night football game for
Speaker 5: the Jets since twenty eleven, they're at home to Kansas City.
Speaker 5: Taylor Swift will be in attendance, and all the Jets,
Speaker 5: all the Jets glory will be you served by the chiefs,
Speaker 5: Patrick Mahomes and of course Taylor Swift. So good luck
Speaker 5: to the Jets, because quote, it can always get worse,
Speaker 5: it will on Sunday Night. Welcome into the Big Red Rage.
Speaker 5: Ron Dale Moore is our feature guest tonight, all presented
Speaker 5: by Santan Ford and Gilbert. We are Santan Ford, Paul
Speaker 5: Kelvic here, Ron Wolfley.
Speaker 1: There, PAULI who said I was joking when I said
Speaker 1: that about being a swifty That's right.
Speaker 5: I am intrigued. I am intrigued as to how sideways
Speaker 5: it gets. What a complete side show it'll be on
Speaker 5: Sunday Night Football. I mean, are you kidding me? They're
Speaker 5: the national TV audience. By the way, the Arizona Cardinals
Speaker 5: had the most watched television program of any kind in
Speaker 5: the Phoenix metro market for this past week, a TV
Speaker 5: rating of sixteen point nine and a share of fifty two.
Speaker 5: So big numbers, big, big numbers for the TV side
Speaker 5: after a big win against Big d and wolf would
Speaker 5: you like the most? By the way, coming off that
Speaker 5: win against Dallas?
Speaker 1: You know what Paully going into that game right there,
Speaker 1: It was the fact the Arizona Cardinals defeated the Dallas
Speaker 1: Cowboys in the fundamentals of the game of football. You know,
Speaker 1: it's been around for a long long time, Paulie. But
Speaker 1: they had to do three things, and I was talking
Speaker 1: about this last week. If they were even going to
Speaker 1: be competitive in this game, they had to do three things.
Speaker 1: They had to run the ball. Did they run the ball. Okay,
Speaker 1: PAULI in this game, did they do it? Okay?
Speaker 5: Dang seven point four yards of carry. They ran the ball.
Speaker 1: They ran the ball very very well, and a lot
Speaker 1: of those runs were in a norsal fashion right at
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons as well. They ran the ball extremely well,
Speaker 1: controlled the line of scrimmage, they protected the ball. How
Speaker 1: many turnovers did the Arizona Cardinals have?
Speaker 5: Well, Josh Dobbs says, you have to throw an innerce
Speaker 5: for example.
Speaker 1: That's right, Paul, like a big fat zero. So you
Speaker 1: take those two right there, and then the red zone.
Speaker 1: How important it is to score touchdowns when you're in
Speaker 1: the red zone, when you're given the opportunity to actually
Speaker 1: get it in and hit Peydart. The Arizona Cardinals were
Speaker 1: two of two, two possessions they got into the red zone,
Speaker 1: and two touchdowns. They converted those possessions into where the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys were one of five. Those numbers right there
Speaker 1: tell the whole story, and.
Speaker 5: Of course the word of the week finish because in
Speaker 5: the first two games you had fourth quarter leads they vanished.
Speaker 5: This time you closed it out and you've vanquished the
Speaker 5: Dallas Cowboys. Here's Jonathan Gannon on the win against Dallas.
Speaker 6: They fought and they played hard, and that's what we've
Speaker 6: been doing for two weeks. I told them right there.
Speaker 6: The difference of the game was we didn't beat ourselves
Speaker 6: and we made some place. You know, execution was good.
Speaker 6: There obviously a lot of things that clean up, but
Speaker 6: some guys stepped up ma big time plays. But we
Speaker 6: didn't beat ourselves and we made the plays that we
Speaker 6: needed to make.
Speaker 5: Honestly, Dallas looked like the Cardinals from last year. A
Speaker 5: slow start, plenty of flags, struggles in the red zone, right,
Speaker 5: self inflicted stuff. That's what Dallas looked like. And because
Speaker 5: that's what the Cardinals did to them, they came out
Speaker 5: they were the more aggressive, more physical team. I reported Wolf,
Speaker 5: you know during the broadcast that what Jonathan Gannon said
Speaker 5: at halftime, faster team wins. And he wasn't just talking
Speaker 5: about team speed, he was talking about how you react,
Speaker 5: how you implement just that football IQ. And to me,
Speaker 5: you look at this Cardinals team this year, especially Kaiser
Speaker 5: White with his fourteen tackles and the game ceiling pick
Speaker 5: at the end, it's a Cardinals defense that, even minus
Speaker 5: Buddha Baker is a fast defense for those reasons I
Speaker 5: just cited him correct.
Speaker 1: Yes, no doubt, Paly, it really is. And the other
Speaker 1: thing I like about the Arizona Cardinals and what we're
Speaker 1: seeing with this version of the Arizona Cardinals through three
Speaker 1: games right now, and it's still a small sample size,
Speaker 1: but three games right now, I love what Drew Petsing
Speaker 1: is doing with this offense. Paul. To me, it's fascinating.
Speaker 1: We use eleven personnel an awful lot of the time
Speaker 1: in rundown situation first and ten second, one to six,
Speaker 1: one back, one tight end, three wide receivers. We use
Speaker 1: it a lot. What's interesting about that when we get
Speaker 1: into eleven personnel, the Arizona Cardinals are running the ball
Speaker 1: more than they're throwing the ball in that rundown And
Speaker 1: it's just the opposite. The second personnel group that we
Speaker 1: use a lot in rundown situation is twelve personnel, one back,
Speaker 1: two tight ends. Of course, but when we get into
Speaker 1: twelve personnel under Drew Petsing, granted through three games, the
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals are more likely to throw the ball than
Speaker 1: run the ball. Very interesting what Drew Petsing is doing
Speaker 1: right now and I love it. I love the blending
Speaker 1: of the old and the new, and he's doing a
Speaker 1: great job at it.
Speaker 5: Think about this offense, and we talked about it all
Speaker 5: lost during the preseason, the whole Kramitt vertical, right, I mean,
Speaker 5: right now, they're number two in yards per carry, their
Speaker 5: number five and overall rushing yards. Most rushing yards with
Speaker 5: the Cardinals as a team since Wolf you were the
Speaker 5: lead fullback in nineteen eighty eight, No way, Yes, and d.
Speaker 5: Through the first three games, they have one hundred and
Speaker 5: sixty nine yards rushing, the most since nineteen eighty eight,
Speaker 5: and a big part of that the explosives. They have
Speaker 5: eight runs of twenty or more yards. Do you know
Speaker 5: all of last season the Cardinals had nine twenty plus
Speaker 5: runs all season long. So there's that there's a quarterback
Speaker 5: who can run. We saw his forty four yard keeper.
Speaker 5: And here's Jonathan Gannon on the development of Josh Dobbs.
Speaker 6: I think he's played winning football for since he's been here.
Speaker 6: But yeah, I think you guys will continue to see
Speaker 6: his improvement and as he gets more and more comfortable.
Speaker 6: But I mean you could ask him, he's pretty comfortable
Speaker 6: right now. He's making a bunch of plays for us.
Speaker 6: He's got good command in the huddle. He's doing a
Speaker 6: good job.
Speaker 5: So we knew Josh Dobbs could run, we didn't quite
Speaker 5: expect the forty four yarder where he hit nineteen point
Speaker 5: eight miles an hour, even faster in the next gen
Speaker 5: stats than our guest tonight, Ronde More. We'll get into
Speaker 5: that a little bit later with Ronde. But Wolf, if
Speaker 5: you're telling me he can run an offense, what do
Speaker 5: the Cardinals have here in Josh Dobbs?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Wow, Polly, I don't know. They've got a guy
Speaker 1: that I think is going to be here long terms
Speaker 1: in terms of being a backup quarterback. I think I
Speaker 1: could see that now. Again, they signed him to a really,
Speaker 1: really manageable one year contract this year, but I could
Speaker 1: see him at some point in time being the backup
Speaker 1: quarterback here. The way we all thought Colt McCoy was
Speaker 1: going to be the backup quarterback and was for three years.
Speaker 1: I could see that happening with Josh Dobbs here going forward.
Speaker 5: Could you absolutely?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 5: The question is who throws how much money at him?
Speaker 5: He's making one point five this year. That is looking
Speaker 5: to be the steal of the year in a league
Speaker 5: where Jacoby Brissec got ten million for one year from
Speaker 5: Washington eight million guaranteed. Yes, what exactly is going to
Speaker 5: be his value in the offseason, We've got a long
Speaker 5: time to answer that question.
Speaker 1: Well, Paully, I'll tell you right now. If he's going
Speaker 1: to continue to play at a quarterback rating of ninety
Speaker 1: eight point one, and that's what he is playing right now,
Speaker 1: he's he might blow Jacoby Brossett out of the water
Speaker 1: in terms of backup money. So he's really performing well.
Speaker 1: Just watching Josh Dobbs again, and it's got to be
Speaker 1: so comforting for and Drew Petsing of course, and Jag
Speaker 1: and the entire staff really to have a guy that
Speaker 1: understands the offense, knows the offense and is going out
Speaker 1: there and executing it, it's got to be very encouraging
Speaker 1: to them.
Speaker 5: So the Cardinals win against Dallas twenty eight to sixteen.
Speaker 5: They never trailed. They finished this game. They held onto
Speaker 5: the fourth quarter lead. And here is speaking of holding
Speaker 5: onto things, here's Josh dobbson just keeping that momentum going.
Speaker 7: Complacency is always the enemy of progress. So many times
Speaker 7: you know when you've had success you can come complacent.
Speaker 7: He'd be like, Okay, like we've done in the past,
Speaker 7: we'll do it well. The only way to do that
Speaker 7: is keep doing what you've done in the past and
Speaker 7: preparing to go out, start those games fast, locking on
Speaker 7: the game plan, executing just little things and walk through
Speaker 7: because it all translates to Sunday. So you know, for
Speaker 7: me as quarterback, you know I signed the leader of
Speaker 7: the ship. Just staying on my guys, the team and
Speaker 7: continually locking into those little details because they help us
Speaker 7: on Sundays.
Speaker 5: All right, if I need to pump the brakes and
Speaker 5: you tell me Wolf. But here's my thinking on Josh Dobbs.
Speaker 5: He had never started a game until the end of
Speaker 5: last season, year six. He started week seventeen Week eighteen,
Speaker 5: made a big improvement from one game to the next.
Speaker 5: He comes into this year, didn't get many reps in
Speaker 5: the preseason, comes to the Cardinals eight days notice, starts
Speaker 5: game one. He is a passer rating of eighty. Game
Speaker 5: two a passer rating to one hundred, Game three a
Speaker 5: passer rating of one twenty. He had never started three
Speaker 5: games in a row. He's never started four games in
Speaker 5: a row. Obviously, that's what's happening this week? So if
Speaker 5: you talk about the guy with the aerospace engineering degree
Speaker 5: and who does internships in NASA to what degree? Is
Speaker 5: Josh Dobbs the UFO unidentified unknown finally getting an opportunity.
Speaker 5: A dude who had to sit behind Big Ben after
Speaker 5: he was drafted. He's finally getting playing time. They finally
Speaker 5: gained the keys to an offense for an extended period
Speaker 5: of time. Are we finding out what he's been about
Speaker 5: all this time?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Polly, you know, it's still one of the things
Speaker 1: you got to remember too that Cardinals have done a
Speaker 1: great job of keeping Josh Dobbs in a balanced offense,
Speaker 1: only had twenty one attempts, only had twenty one attempts,
Speaker 1: and that's because you didn't have to have him go
Speaker 1: out and have forty one attempts in this game, so
Speaker 1: to me keep them in that balanced offense.
Speaker 5: And of course now he gets the Niners defense in
Speaker 5: their front seven, and he might not have Hollywood Brown.
Speaker 5: We'll see a thumb injury showing up on the injury
Speaker 5: report today. It's the big red rage ron Dale Moore
Speaker 5: coming up a little later. All presented by Santan Ford
Speaker 5: and Gilbert we are santan Ford.
Speaker 3: You're gonna send Cooks out to the left and two
Speaker 3: receivers to the right, shotgun formation, where Dak Prescott follered
Speaker 3: to his left. Prescott the pass straight drop Fiers middle
Speaker 3: of the end zone, pickoff, Kaizer White with the interception.
Speaker 3: Man that might do in Dallas. Wow, Kaizier White in
Speaker 3: the middle of the end zone. I don't know that
Speaker 3: Prescott ever saw him.
Speaker 4: Shock the world. Kaizer shock the world. What a great
Speaker 4: job dropping off into coverage. Dak Prescott trying to hit
Speaker 4: Brandon Cooks over the middle of the field and Kaizer
Speaker 4: White picked it.
Speaker 5: How about that the quarterback of the defense, Kaizer White.
Speaker 5: We talked a lot about the quarterback of the offense,
Speaker 5: Josh Dobbs. They had one thing in common. After the game.
Speaker 5: They were both holding on too game balls. Josh Dobbs
Speaker 5: took his to the podium. Kaizer White didn't let go
Speaker 5: of the interception all the way to this sideline and
Speaker 5: then into the locker room, and after the game we
Speaker 5: had a chance to talk to him. He said, you
Speaker 5: know what, that was especially meaningful, not only his second
Speaker 5: career pick, but because he'd been working on that exact
Speaker 5: play call that drop and he said, according to him,
Speaker 5: he'd been messing it up all week in practice, finally
Speaker 5: got it right and then Boom obviously nailed it in
Speaker 5: the game to seal the game and a win for
Speaker 5: the Cardinals, who, by the way, are seven points away
Speaker 5: from being three and oh dot dot dot. It's the
Speaker 5: big red rage. Rondel Moore right around the corner, Paul,
Speaker 5: calvic Ron, Wolfley and wolf What is Kaizer White done
Speaker 5: for this defense in your estimation?
Speaker 1: Yeah, PAULI you know he's given him another coach on
Speaker 1: the field right now. Kaiser White understands the defense that
Speaker 1: Nick Rowlis wants to run. He understands this defense. He
Speaker 1: understands what JG wants. This is a guy that make
Speaker 1: sure everyone is on the same page. Ball. What I
Speaker 1: love the most about what I'm saying from Kaizer as well,
Speaker 1: this is a man who does not want to come
Speaker 1: off the field, Paul. Every snap he was in this game,
Speaker 1: every snap, does not want to come off the field.
Speaker 1: A guy that is equally as physical as he is athletic,
Speaker 1: a guy that can hammer at the point of attack,
Speaker 1: get off a block and make a tackle, and at
Speaker 1: the same time a guy that can drop into coverage,
Speaker 1: read the eyes of the quarterback. That's what he did
Speaker 1: against Dak Prescott. Read the eyes of the quarterback and
Speaker 1: drop off and then suddenly finish the play and make
Speaker 1: a play. That play was absolutely huge, and Paul it
Speaker 1: was no accident that he was where he was. His
Speaker 1: brain told him, here comes Brandon Cooks. He's coming across
Speaker 1: the middle. I'm looking at Dak Prescott, He's looking at him.
Speaker 1: He dropped off because his brain told him to drop
Speaker 1: off into coverage and he was in the perfect spot
Speaker 1: to make that pick. I honestly don't think Dak Prescott
Speaker 1: thought once once he squatted and stopped, I don't think
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott ever thought of him. Again.
Speaker 5: Remember what Kaiser White told us last week on the
Speaker 5: Big Red Rage.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 5: As a former safety in junior college, he has been
Speaker 5: known as a coverage linebacker. But the physicality, the downhill
Speaker 5: style that he brings, the ability to go sideline to sideline,
Speaker 5: I mean he has been the complete package. To come
Speaker 5: full circle to what you said, he has been a
Speaker 5: three down inside linebacker. And now look at this Cardinals
Speaker 5: defense that despite quite a few injuries right their numberze,
Speaker 5: they have eleven sacks. That's top five in the league.
Speaker 5: Yet they have the lowest NFL blitz rate of any team,
Speaker 5: which is remarkable to me.
Speaker 1: If the fans in Philly are freaking out over that still, Paul.
Speaker 5: So there's all that, and then of course there's the
Speaker 5: red zone defense, and that might have been the difference
Speaker 5: in the game. Look, Dallas as an offense was one
Speaker 5: of five in the red zone. I know after the game,
Speaker 5: Dak Prescott, he was railing and whining and griping and
Speaker 5: grousing and saying, quote, we moved the ball up and
Speaker 5: down the field, we just couldn't score. Well, that's the
Speaker 5: object of the game. You couldn't get in the end zone.
Speaker 5: And here's Nick Rollis, the Cardinals defensive coordinator on that.
Speaker 8: After a week of preparation and our preparation going into Dallas,
Speaker 8: like we executed better in the red zone. That was huge,
Speaker 8: you know. You know, honestly, the first two weeks it
Speaker 8: wasn't really what you want to be in the red zone.
Speaker 8: So I was played with the guy with the players
Speaker 8: and US coaches maybe coaching a little bit better, had
Speaker 8: a little bit better plan. But the red zone defense
Speaker 8: was obviously improved from week one and week two.
Speaker 5: And once again that's about Buddha Baker. They're missing two
Speaker 5: of their top defensive linemen and LJ. Colliy or Carlos Watkins.
Speaker 5: They have some young corners like Key Troll Clark who
Speaker 5: got targeted eleven times. He battled, right. I mean, so
Speaker 5: look from what I can tell talking to the guys
Speaker 5: Wolf and you tell me what looks like from up
Speaker 5: above and on film. But they're keeping it simple in
Speaker 5: the name of making sure there's no mental mistakes and
Speaker 5: the ability to play fast.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it, Bali right there, it really is. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you want these guys fast. But it's themes man. I
Speaker 1: mean how many times we've had this conversation over the years, Pauly, Bud,
Speaker 1: you cannot suffer mental airs. You just can't do it.
Speaker 1: They will get you beat quicker than anything else. Mental
Speaker 1: errors and the breakdown because it all of a sudden
Speaker 1: when it's not just one play where it happens, but
Speaker 1: suddenly when you have a mental error and you have
Speaker 1: a breakdown and there's an explosive play that happens because
Speaker 1: of that, it shakes the confidence of all the guys
Speaker 1: that are in that huddle. It shakes the confidence. And
Speaker 1: you know, honestly, there haven't been a lot of ms
Speaker 1: in the last two games. The first game, I think
Speaker 1: there were some mes, but that seems pretty natural for
Speaker 1: the first game of the season. I don't think we've
Speaker 1: seen an awful lot of mental airs the last two games.
Speaker 1: But I will tell you right now that the defensive
Speaker 1: quarterback rating for the Arizona Cardinals is very very good.
Speaker 1: It's very very good. It's sixteen. It's right in the
Speaker 1: middle of the past eighty six point seven. Paul. It's
Speaker 1: very good because last year it was number thirty one
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. Wow, Dad, Paul, seriously, defensive
Speaker 1: quarterback rating. They were number thirty one, ninety eight point two.
Speaker 1: That's how bad it was. This has improved dramatically right now.
Speaker 1: And man, you've got to look squarely at jg and.
Speaker 5: Nick Rowlis, and they've been looking at this Niners offense
Speaker 5: for a long time in a lot of different ways.
Speaker 5: You're talking about a forty nine Ers team that is
Speaker 5: three to zero. They've won their last eight division games,
Speaker 5: they've won thirteen regular season games in a row, and
Speaker 5: they have what the Cardinals defensive coaches consider well, I'll
Speaker 5: let them say it. When it comes to this Kyle
Speaker 5: Shanahan scheme. Here's Jonathan Gannon this week on offense.
Speaker 6: They got guys on in every group that are really
Speaker 6: really good with the ball in their hands. The schematics
Speaker 6: of how they play the game, they get the guys
Speaker 6: the ball in space a lot of the times. Obviously
Speaker 6: the scheme is probably the best in the world.
Speaker 5: Truthfully, let that hang for a minute. So and look,
Speaker 5: we know the objective of Kyle Shanahan, right, He's gonna
Speaker 5: disguise everything. Yes, he's gonna keep you honest, as the
Speaker 5: players say, try and ungap your defense. He's gonna play
Speaker 5: with your eyes and then take advantage of that. You're
Speaker 5: looking this way, we're going that way, and they're gonna
Speaker 5: break tackles. And here's my biggest concern about this game
Speaker 5: for the Cardinals defense. Well, the tackling last week at
Speaker 5: times against Dallas could have been better, no doubt. And
Speaker 5: the Cardinals right now they've allowed two hundred ninety nine
Speaker 5: yards after first contact according to the analytics, that is
Speaker 5: third most in the league. In a course, yes, of
Speaker 5: course they're missing Buddha bakers, so right there, you better
Speaker 5: bring your tackling against the Niners.
Speaker 1: You better, Pully, it really is. I don't know who
Speaker 1: do you want to talk about first? When you start
Speaker 1: talking about the forty nine ers, you know it's amazing
Speaker 1: their Their offense is number three, number three in the
Speaker 1: National Football League in yards per game in yards per play,
Speaker 1: and their defense is number four in yards per game
Speaker 1: and yards per play. Think about that ball, A mean,
Speaker 1: that's they're playing at an elite level on offense and defense.
Speaker 1: This is a team that is built on the line
Speaker 1: of scrimmage, and yet they have so much talent, so
Speaker 1: much versatile talent, especially when you're talking offensively right now, Paul,
Speaker 1: would it blow your mind to know that twenty one
Speaker 1: personnel is the number one personnel group and rundown situation
Speaker 1: for the San Francisco forty nine ers.
Speaker 5: Well, when you have Christian McCaffery and Kyle Uscheck, maybe not.
Speaker 1: I guess forty seven percent of the time they're in
Speaker 1: twenty one personnel. By the way, sixty seven percent of
Speaker 1: the time, and rundown they're in a power personnel group
Speaker 1: because they use twenty two personnel, two backs, two tight end,
Speaker 1: and one wide receiver. They use that a lot sixty
Speaker 1: seven percent of the time they're in a power personnel
Speaker 1: group in rundown situation. And here it comes. Attack the
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage with running plays, and then attack the
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage with a fake running play that looks
Speaker 1: just like the running play, and now you're actually throwing
Speaker 1: it using play action. It is a simple, simple scheme.
Speaker 5: It's amazing watching the game last week, the announcers were
Speaker 5: talking about how Wink Martindale was trying to light up
Speaker 5: brock Purty, how he was just bringing the house snap
Speaker 5: after snap, and I looked it up. The analytics say
Speaker 5: that the Giants blitz brock Purty on thirty three of
Speaker 5: thirty nine dropbacks, and and brock Purty went twenty five
Speaker 5: to thirty seven for three to ten, two touchdowns, no
Speaker 5: picks in a passer rating over one to eleven. And
Speaker 5: by the way, both his touchdown passes came against the blitz.
Speaker 5: So it doesn't seem to matter what you throw. With
Speaker 5: the forty nine ers, they are very capable of beating
Speaker 5: it and win. In doubt, they just go to Christian
Speaker 5: McCaffer either the throwing it to him, he's running. He
Speaker 5: is the one running back in the league with more
Speaker 5: than fifty Carriss under his belt, who has a higher
Speaker 5: yards per carry than James Conter. Fact, they're the only
Speaker 5: two running backs in the NFL right now averaging better
Speaker 5: than five yards of carry.
Speaker 1: Paul It is the most versatile offense in the National
Speaker 1: Football League. I think Miami is number two, and there's
Speaker 1: a good reason why, but I think San Francisco is
Speaker 1: the most versatile offense in the league. When you think
Speaker 1: of Deebo Samuel, here's a guy that is a wide
Speaker 1: receiver who's who's probably a better running back then he
Speaker 1: might even be a wide receiver. And then you've got
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, who's a running back who's probably could be
Speaker 1: a better wide receiver than he is a running back,
Speaker 1: and he's really really good at that. And then you've
Speaker 1: got the guy to tie it all together, George Kittle,
Speaker 1: that stud tight end lining up, a guy that can
Speaker 1: block at the point of attack and hold up, a
Speaker 1: guy that can run routes like a wide receiver, and
Speaker 1: a guy that actually can run the ball like a
Speaker 1: running back. Once he gets the ball in his hands,
Speaker 1: he's the most dangerous. After he gets the ball in
Speaker 1: his hands poly George kittlewill run you over and truck you.
Speaker 1: He's a great runner. After that, you just think of
Speaker 1: how versatile all of these guys are. Man it is.
Speaker 1: It is an impressive thing to watch on tape.
Speaker 5: John James Connor said today, quote, it's no secret they
Speaker 5: play bullyball. So we got to bring the fight to them.
Speaker 5: Yeldafrohold at his locker told us today, Look, we got
Speaker 5: to match, if not exceed, their physicality. So yes, that's
Speaker 5: the expectation. You know what's coming. Can you deal with
Speaker 5: it now? A year ago you couldn't. You got blown
Speaker 5: out in both games thirty eight to ten, thirty eight
Speaker 5: to thirteen. So we'll see what the physicality is like

Speaker 5: guest here on the Big Red Rage, presented by Santan
Speaker 5: Ford in, Gilbert Paul kelvyc Ron Wolfley in the aforemention,
Speaker 5: and Rondale Moore in is highlight montage from weeks one
Speaker 5: through three. So true story. I was on San Francisco
Speaker 5: radio earlier today and the first thing they asked about was,
Speaker 5: because you know these Niners guys, right, they're trying like, Okay,
Speaker 5: what is this Cardinals team all about? New coaching staff,
Speaker 5: news scheme. The first question Wolf was about Rondale Moore
Speaker 5: coming out of the backfield and the ways being used.
Speaker 5: So you know what, now we get to find out
Speaker 5: exactly what the Cardinals are thinking and how it's working. Rondale,
Speaker 5: Welcome to the show.
Speaker 9: I appreciate you guys having me. Glad to be here.
Speaker 5: So they want to know if you are tracking to
Speaker 5: be the next Deebo Samuel and I say, well, I
Speaker 5: don't know. Let's ask him. I mean, are they adding
Speaker 5: running back to your job description as wide receiver?
Speaker 9: Two part question.
Speaker 10: First answer to the first one is no, I's trying
Speaker 10: to be myself and go execute and be the same
Speaker 10: guy Evin since I was drafted. And then that's second
Speaker 10: part with the running back thing. I mean, wherever I can,
Speaker 10: you know, plug in and be.
Speaker 9: For this team.
Speaker 10: I'm willing to do and I'll be excited and I'll
Speaker 10: try to go execute whatever it's called.
Speaker 1: So Rondell, you would like to get more running back reps?
Speaker 9: Again?
Speaker 10: Just to reiterate what I said, Man, wherever they see
Speaker 10: fit for me? Wherever I can give the offense the
Speaker 10: best chance to go out there and execute and give
Speaker 10: the team a chance to win.
Speaker 9: I'm cool with that, wherever that may be.
Speaker 5: On the forty five yard refreshed. See, I'm on the sideline.
Speaker 5: And sometimes it's the best for you. Sometimes it's the worst.
Speaker 5: Tell us about that play. Just give us the football
Speaker 5: one one. Where were you exactly to start that play
Speaker 5: and how did it develop? Take us through it.
Speaker 10: Yeah, so call it a personnel that puts me at
Speaker 10: the running back. Obviously James is out of the game
Speaker 10: at this point, and I'm on the right side of
Speaker 10: the queue. I'm running left. DJ kicked out the end.
Speaker 10: They went four down, hit it up inside the tackle
Speaker 10: and there was a big hole. And after that, I
Speaker 10: kind of just put my head back and let my
Speaker 10: guy give an abilities take care of the rest untouched.
Speaker 10: So great scheme. Everyone did their job on that play,
Speaker 10: all ten other guys. Everyone got blocked, and you know
Speaker 10: I was able to get.
Speaker 9: An end zone.
Speaker 1: Rondell, when you look at this offense right now, how
Speaker 1: does this offense differ from last year's offense.
Speaker 10: I just think from an execution standpoint, we've been in
Speaker 10: some bigger personnels enforcing the run game and making an
Speaker 10: appointant emphasis every week to go out there and dominating
Speaker 10: that aspect. So I think that's the biggest difference. And
Speaker 10: then again, I think just the attention to detail and
Speaker 10: how we install things, the questions comments. You know, everyone
Speaker 10: has the floor when things are getting installed, and I
Speaker 10: think we all just understand what we're trying to accomplish
Speaker 10: and everything about the play each and every week that
Speaker 10: they're being installed.
Speaker 5: Rondel Moore is our guest in the Big Red Rage.
Speaker 5: So one of the most remarkable stats right now to
Speaker 5: me is that the Cardinals as a team have eight
Speaker 5: runs of twenty or more yards last year. All of
Speaker 5: last season there were nine. What do you attribute that to?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 10: Again, I think it's just attention of detail. And obviously
Speaker 10: you had a big word course in the in the
Speaker 10: backfield and James Connor and I think we do a
Speaker 10: great job up front of of giving him holes to
Speaker 10: run through and and you know he does the rest.
Speaker 10: But again, you gotta tilt your hat to the guys
Speaker 10: up front. James, obviously our OC Drew and you know
Speaker 10: everyone that's a part of that execution.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 10: Shout out to the receivers holding it down on the
Speaker 10: perimeter as well. And again we're just all on one page.
Speaker 10: And when you have eleven guys on one page, I
Speaker 10: think that's when you get explosive plays and able to
Speaker 10: execute at.
Speaker 9: A high level.
Speaker 1: So coming into this season, Rondelle D did you have
Speaker 1: goals and if so, what are they?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 10: I I I tend to keep those, you know, within
Speaker 10: my family and friends, and I don't tend to broadcast
Speaker 10: those sort of things.
Speaker 9: But I I think the end goal for me.
Speaker 10: And everyone on this on this team is to win,
Speaker 10: and whatever that takes is what you gotta do. So
Speaker 10: I think that's been big for us is just going
Speaker 10: out there and doing whatever it takes to go to
Speaker 10: go and try to get a W.
Speaker 5: What does a win like that do for what Jonathan
Speaker 5: Gannon is trying to build? Dallas came in number one
Speaker 5: in a lot of power poles. Not a single analyst
Speaker 5: picked the Cardinals in that game. So what is getting
Speaker 5: to win like that against that team just do for
Speaker 5: the overall objective here?
Speaker 9: I think it's big.
Speaker 10: We really don't get into he said this, he said this,
Speaker 10: or whatever, and whoever is whoever is just trying to
Speaker 10: go out there and execute, and you know, run and
Speaker 10: hit and have explosive plays and not turn the ball
Speaker 10: over and just go out there and execute. So each
Speaker 10: and every week we're trying to accomplish the same thing,
Speaker 10: whether you're playing the thirty second team or the first team.
Speaker 10: So just continuing to go out there and try to
Speaker 10: execute our plan and just continue to roll.
Speaker 1: Rondelle, how is the body feeling right now? How are
Speaker 1: you feeling?
Speaker 9: I feel great.
Speaker 5: When you were used like the end of last season, right,
Speaker 5: I think if I'm I've seen this right. You had
Speaker 5: twenty four catches in your final three games for two
Speaker 5: hundred and fifty five yards receiving in a touchdown. Did
Speaker 5: you feel like you built a little momentum the end
Speaker 5: of last season? And to what degree do you feel like, Okay,
Speaker 5: you know what, year three, I'm really comfortable in the NFL,
Speaker 5: and then once I get comfortable in this scheme, I
Speaker 5: got a chance to roll.
Speaker 9: I don't look at it like that.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 10: I feel like I've been the same player since I
Speaker 10: was twenty years old and got in this league. I
Speaker 10: don't think anything's changed mentally for me. I think physically,
Speaker 10: have you know, added on some things and some nuances
Speaker 10: here and there, and just obviously learn the game, get
Speaker 10: a feel for it, speed, things of that sort. But
Speaker 10: as far as that stuff goes man, confidence has never
Speaker 10: left my side. Obviously, it's been some hard times with
Speaker 10: some injuries and things of that sort that you know,
Speaker 10: it is what it is and it's part of the
Speaker 10: game and I can't control. But you know, as far
Speaker 10: as that stuff goes man, there's no momentium or this
Speaker 10: and that. I think that's it's all overrated in my
Speaker 10: in my opinion.
Speaker 5: And you know, we if he sounds like he's been
Speaker 5: there and done that. Remember he was the first true
Speaker 5: freshman to earn consensus all American honors in Big Ten
Speaker 5: history about that, right, So you had so much success
Speaker 5: at such a young age, Rondell, that I mean, none
Speaker 5: of this really phases you either way, does it?
Speaker 10: Trying to go out there and execute, Man, It's always
Speaker 10: just been my mindset about it. And things get rough,
Speaker 10: fall back on your training, trusted people around you, and
Speaker 10: just go out there and execute. So that's just what
Speaker 10: I've continued to try to do in and out every year.
Speaker 1: Rondell. When you watch the forty nine ers on tape, defensively,
Speaker 1: What are you saying.
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's a good team.
Speaker 10: They fly around, they hit, they play solid defense, they
Speaker 10: try to keep everything in front of them, get a
Speaker 10: lot of his own and they got some really good players
Speaker 10: on both sides of the football.
Speaker 5: What has been Has there been a similar approach by
Speaker 5: your first three opponents defensively in this Cardinals offense or
Speaker 5: do you get a radically different game plan every week?
Speaker 10: I think as an offense, you have your base calls
Speaker 10: and runs that you know you like to execute and
Speaker 10: get going with every week. But you know, obviously it'll
Speaker 10: change depending on the structure of the other team or
Speaker 10: what the DC has done in the past, and things
Speaker 10: of that sort. But you always have your your base
Speaker 10: calls that you want to run against, that work and
Speaker 10: stand true against any defense in any front, and things
Speaker 10: of that sort. So do they get exotic sometimes with
Speaker 10: playing certain players or certain teams, Sure, But I mean
Speaker 10: a bunch of it is stuff that you know you
Speaker 10: do well as an offense.
Speaker 1: Ronell, you were talking about they play a lot of zone.
Speaker 1: When you say that, do they close the middle of
Speaker 1: the field a lot more than they keep it open?
Speaker 1: What kind of coverages do they use?
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 9: I mean they mix it up.
Speaker 1: They mix it up.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 10: I mean they'll go three three weeks, they'll play quarters.
Speaker 10: We'll get some Tampa two ben don't break type of defense.
Speaker 10: So try to keep everything in front of them and
Speaker 10: they will.
Speaker 9: They will go.
Speaker 10: Man, they're they're down like most teams in this league.
Speaker 5: So like a lot of teams, I'm guessing they show
Speaker 5: something pre snap and then they change post snap, right.
Speaker 9: Not as much as you think, truthfully. I think what
Speaker 9: you see is what you get.
Speaker 10: And they again, they've they've been able to execute that
Speaker 10: really well. And I think it's on the offense and
Speaker 10: us to go out there and just execute.
Speaker 1: So when you look at their corners, what's your.
Speaker 10: Impression again, zone guys, when they do press physical, long
Speaker 10: get their hands on you, and they've been able to
Speaker 10: cause some disruption over these first few weeks. So, like
Speaker 10: I said, they got some good players over there, and
Speaker 10: it's in our hands to go execute.
Speaker 5: Ron Dale Moore is our guest in the Big Red
Speaker 5: Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert. One of the
Speaker 5: things really stood out to me was Josh Dobbs after
Speaker 5: the game, He's got the game ball on the podium, Okay,
Speaker 5: his first win, first career wins the starting quarterback, and
Speaker 5: he said the Michael Wilson sixty nine yarder was his
Speaker 5: third read. And I'm like, wow, okay, if he's seeing
Speaker 5: the field like that already in a brand new offense, man,
Speaker 5: what exactly is the upside here? What has impressed you
Speaker 5: the most with Josh Dobbs so far?
Speaker 9: Just as a way to come in and adapt.
Speaker 10: Obviously he's had a little bit of rapport with Drew
Speaker 10: as he was the QB coach in Cleveland while Josh
Speaker 10: was there, so obviously that played a part. But just
Speaker 10: to come in so quickly and get on page with
Speaker 10: us and build chemistry and be able to go out
Speaker 10: there and sling it and have you know, a ton
Speaker 10: of confidence while doing so.
Speaker 1: You know, for those that are listening right now, Rondell,
Speaker 1: can you talk about James Connor and just how important
Speaker 1: it is to get James Connor going in terms of
Speaker 1: running the ball and what that does for your offense.
Speaker 1: Talk about the importance of James Connor if you will.
Speaker 9: Yeah, super important.
Speaker 10: That's a guy who you know, has to be accounting
Speaker 10: for every week for a defense. He's hard to tackle,
Speaker 10: he gets all the dirty yards and it takes more
Speaker 10: than one guy to bring him down. And I think
Speaker 10: for us we feed off of his energy. Has great
Speaker 10: energy and practice in the game. One of our leaders
Speaker 10: for sure, so super important to get him going early.
Speaker 5: When Josh s Doabs trucked that free safety right in
Speaker 5: week two for the touchdown run, there was James Count
Speaker 5: of the sideline screaming, it's a mindset. What does he
Speaker 5: mean by that?
Speaker 10: As simple put as he said, it's a mindset. I
Speaker 10: think you got to go out there every week and
Speaker 10: just feel as if you know you're the best one
Speaker 10: on the field. And if all eleven guys out there
Speaker 10: play like that and feel that way, I think we
Speaker 10: go out there and execute at a high level.
Speaker 5: And Wolf Josh Dobbs, he was asked this week about
Speaker 5: Rondell Moore, right, and here's what the Cardinals starting quarterback
Speaker 5: had to say. As I saw from.
Speaker 7: Afar when he was in college I Purdue, and then
Speaker 7: obviously here as I saw you know in person on Sunday,
Speaker 7: he's a playmaker. He's dynamic with the football, and so
Speaker 7: he's a big part of our offense in that and
Speaker 7: the more ways we can get the ball in his hand,
Speaker 7: the more way I can get the ball in his
Speaker 7: hands as the quarterback, get him in space and take
Speaker 7: advantage of his matchup across the field. You know, it
Speaker 7: only helps our offense go.
Speaker 5: You know, in training camp, guys like yours truly over here,
Speaker 5: right poly pencil neck. I'm like, okay, so you have
Speaker 5: James count, you got a big back like Keyonta Ingram
Speaker 5: as well. Who's that change of pay speed guy? And
Speaker 5: yeah in this last game You're like, wow, maybe it's
Speaker 5: Rondelle Moore. I mean, what do you think about that?
Speaker 5: Is that? What does that do to a defense when
Speaker 5: you can vary it? You know, so the thunder and
Speaker 5: lightning type, Look.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it's it's super cool first and foremost
Speaker 10: to be able to go back there and be able
Speaker 10: to execute. I think for defense, it's tough putting bigger
Speaker 10: body type guys on guys like myself. I think it
Speaker 10: it makes it tough for guys on the opposing side.
Speaker 10: So again, what Josh said and Drew does a good
Speaker 10: job of is just lining guys up in different places
Speaker 10: to get mismatches all around the field.
Speaker 1: You know, Rondell, we have seen you on a lot
Speaker 1: of horizontal action, a lot of jet sweeps. Of course,
Speaker 1: we've seen you and a lot of screens, a lot
Speaker 1: of horizontal plays. But your forty five yard electric touchdown
Speaker 1: was in between the tackles. Was it designed to go
Speaker 1: in between the tackles?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 10: And I actually was telling someone this earlier this week
Speaker 10: during practice. I have been wide that whole week, and
Speaker 10: we got some more reps during a walkthrough, and eventually
Speaker 10: I realizing, oh, this is probably going to hit inside
Speaker 10: the tackle, so DJA forced to end out hitt in
Speaker 10: between there. I think I saw Tristan in front of
Speaker 10: me blacking, and then from there I just saw the
Speaker 10: end zone.
Speaker 5: And then later you were used as a decoy, I believe,
Speaker 5: as absorts and then James kind of ripped a twenty
Speaker 5: six yarder right, So all of a sudden, the defense
Speaker 5: is conscious to that. And I'll tell you what, you
Speaker 5: definitely have the attention to the forty nine ers defense.
Speaker 5: That's what we've been able to ascertain. So Rondel, best
Speaker 5: of luck on Sunday. We always appreciate the time and
Speaker 5: keep it up. It's been fun to watch this showl.
Speaker 9: Thank you, guys. I appreciate it.
Speaker 5: Hey, there, you go Rondel Moore Cardinals receiver slash all
Speaker 5: around weapon and if there's one team that does it
Speaker 5: very well, it's the forty nine Ers using guys in
Speaker 5: different spots in different ways. So we'll see what's on
Speaker 5: display in Week four. Single game tickets on sale now.
Speaker 5: Just go to Easycardinals dot com slash by tickets. Back
Speaker 5: to or wrap up this edition to the Big Red Rage,
Speaker 5: presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert.
Speaker 3: Dobs under center inside forty seconds, takes the snap, takes
Speaker 3: a knee, the ballgame is over, affirmation for what maniaso
Speaker 3: For and Jonathan Gannon are building in Arizona. The Cardinal
Speaker 3: players mob their head coach. They soak him in gatorade
Speaker 3: as they celebrate a twenty eight to sixteen win Hovid.
Speaker 3: The Dallas Cowboys win number one, perhaps many more to
Speaker 3: come in twenty twenty.
Speaker 5: Three, great final call Dave Pash on the Arizona Cardinals
Speaker 5: Radio Network, Cardinals victorious, trying to take that momentum into
Speaker 5: a loaded front half of the schedule. They follow up
Speaker 5: Dallas of the road trip to the forty nine Ers. Well, look,
Speaker 5: it's a game and game film that has to catch
Speaker 5: the Niners attention. When the Cardinals go out there, they
Speaker 5: score on all five of their first half possessions, including
Speaker 5: that sixty two yard field goal. At the half, they
Speaker 5: rush for two hundred and twenty two yards on thirty carries,
Speaker 5: seven point four yards of carry, cram that vertical, and
Speaker 5: then you have twelve plays of ten or more yards,
Speaker 5: four runs of twenty plus yards. So, look, the Cardinals
Speaker 5: are explosive enough on offense and defense, and look, if
Speaker 5: they want a team, they want a team that can
Speaker 5: match them in every category. It's the San Francisco forty
Speaker 5: nine Ers, Big Red Rage presented by santan Ford and Gilbert.
Speaker 5: Wrapping it up, Paul kelvc Ron wolf Ley. Here's what
Speaker 5: Jonathan Gannon was all too willing to share with us
Speaker 5: on his TV show and with the media this week.
Speaker 5: Wolf that the Niners generate the most explosives and on
Speaker 5: defense they've allowed the fewest explosives. So the defense, you know,
Speaker 5: is gonna be buttoned up, even with the change in
Speaker 5: defensive coordinators going from Tamiko Ryans the former Cardinals head
Speaker 5: coach Steve Wilkes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no doubt about it, and a lot of
Speaker 1: it has got to do with Fred Warner. Bally, that's
Speaker 1: where I'll start right now. I think Fred Warner is
Speaker 1: a Hall of Fame football player. Wow, that's what I think. Yeah,
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. This guy, you watch him on tape.
Speaker 1: He says physical is you're gonna want out of them,
Speaker 1: Mike Linebacker. And yet at the same time, he can run,
Speaker 1: he can move, he moves laterally beautifully, and he's got
Speaker 1: a beautiful mind as well. He gets everybody lined up
Speaker 1: and everybody across the board. The gap integrity of this
Speaker 1: team is really really impressive, and that's saying something when
Speaker 1: you've got guys like Nick Bosa coming up the field
Speaker 1: and you know these guys are rushing the quarterback first
Speaker 1: a lot of the time, a guy like Nick Bosa,
Speaker 1: they let him go. Javon Hargrave has been huge for them.
Speaker 1: Eric Armstead and Javon Hargrave. This is very similar to
Speaker 1: what the Arizona Cardinals faced in Week one against the
Speaker 1: Washington Commanders and the two great defensive tackles they had.
Speaker 1: It's very very similar. But now, Paul, the problem is
Speaker 1: you got Nick Bosa on the outside of that as well.
Speaker 1: This is one of the best front sevens the Arizona
Speaker 1: Cardinals will see all season long.
Speaker 5: And remember they let to Forrest Buckner go via free agency.
Speaker 5: They drafted Javon Kimlaw in the first round. He's been
Speaker 5: nicked up and has been out of shape, but he's
Speaker 5: been balling. They got Drake Jackson in the second round
Speaker 5: out of USC last year. He had three sacks and
Speaker 5: the openers. So to your point, they are loaded up
Speaker 5: front like a Washington speaking of here's what Jonathan Gannon
Speaker 5: had to say about that Niners D.
Speaker 6: You know they got star power on all three levels.
Speaker 6: D line train wrecks the game. They got linebackers that
Speaker 6: flow fast, they can take the ball away, they're good
Speaker 6: in coverage, and they got a back end that place
Speaker 6: connected with star power. Our team knows very well the
Speaker 6: challenge that lies ahead on Sunday.
Speaker 5: The Giants got all of one hundred and fifty total
Speaker 5: yards and offense against that Niners D. Now, it was
Speaker 5: a Thursday night game, they are on the road, they
Speaker 5: didn't have Saquon Barkley. I get it. But if there's
Speaker 5: opportunity anywhere, Wolf, if you're Drew Petsen, where do you
Speaker 5: try and target? What is the game plan against that
Speaker 5: forty nine Ers defense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very similar to what they did did the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. You gotta go and you gotta run the ball, Paul.
Speaker 1: You have got to run the ball. You've got to
Speaker 1: do it successfully. You're gonna have to pick your spots
Speaker 1: to throw the ball, taking shots down the field. You
Speaker 1: might want to go with some max protection, whatever it
Speaker 1: may be, but yeah, no, I think you've got to
Speaker 1: run the ball, just like they did against the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 1: The difference is this is a very, very good front seven.
Speaker 1: Once again, they're number three in rushing yards per game
Speaker 1: allowed and they're number eleven in rushing yards per play allowed.
Speaker 1: So there is a little bit of maybe some breathing
Speaker 1: room right there in terms of trying to run the
Speaker 1: ball against them, but they are absolutely brutal on all
Speaker 1: three levels. I love the fact that JG was talking
Speaker 1: about that because it does speak to the defensive line
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers have, and then Fred Warner the
Speaker 1: linebackers as well, and then talanoa Ufanga, Paul. This guy,
Speaker 1: this guy reminds me so much of Troy Polamalo.
Speaker 5: It's not even he's out of usc but he's a
Speaker 5: ballhawk like that right.
Speaker 1: Oh, he's a ballhawk like that. He is. He's got
Speaker 1: such great instincts. The Pittsburgh Steelers used to go ahead
Speaker 1: and take Troy Palamalo and line them up and bring
Speaker 1: him down into the middle of the field. They'd play
Speaker 1: Robber Robert coverage man across the board with a free
Speaker 1: safety high. You rush for guys, and then you have
Speaker 1: Troy Polamalo who's lurking, and you let him do whatever
Speaker 1: he smells out. You let him do whatever his instincts
Speaker 1: tell him to do. The Steelers did this over and
Speaker 1: over and over again, and Ufanga reminds me so much
Speaker 1: of Polamalo.
Speaker 5: What's interesting in that Giants game that that front seven
Speaker 5: for the Niners generated pressure on Daniel Jones on twenty
Speaker 5: three of his thirty four dropbacks, according to Pro Football Focus.
Speaker 5: Oh wow, So thank goodness, Josh Dobbs is mobile can
Speaker 5: extend plays. We saw that last week. In fact, you
Speaker 5: know what, more please when it comes to the quarterback
Speaker 5: run game. Honestly, I really liked what I saw in
Speaker 5: a Josh Dobbs And if you've got an ultra aggressive
Speaker 5: defense like the Niners, maybe, just maybe you know, you
Speaker 5: can keep him honest with a Josh Dobbs and a
Speaker 5: keeper here there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, there's no doubt about it. You have to
Speaker 1: try to do that, I think, PAULI, but you got
Speaker 1: to be careful as well. This is a guy that
Speaker 1: is playing very very well again through three games right now.
Speaker 1: He's got a quarterback rating of over ninety eight and
Speaker 1: that I honestly can tell you, Paul I did not
Speaker 1: see that coming.
Speaker 5: And once again, what is next with Josh Dobbs. Yes,
Speaker 5: what we've seen is a guy getting more comfortable, more accurate,
Speaker 5: getting more efficient, and based on what the guys are
Speaker 5: saying in that locker room, there might be more to
Speaker 5: come now, not necessarily this week against this defense. We'll see,
Speaker 5: we'll see, But this is an opportunity he has waited
Speaker 5: for literally his entire football career, sitting the majority of
Speaker 5: his first six years in the single game tickets on
