1
00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: Strap on the boots and scrape up the knuckles. So

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 1: and ahead, he got jacked.

3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 2: This is the big red rage presented by Emergency Air.

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 3: Sacked again Kalis Campbell slammed the ground by Buddha Baker

5
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:16,920
Speaker 3: like a torpedo.

6
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 4: He came flying into the backfield.

7
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 2: The rage is brought to you by Emergency Air. The

8
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 2: difference is we care.

9
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:32,080

Speaker 4: I'm ready. And Ron Wolfley.

16
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: It doesn't get any better than that.

17
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 4: You know, borts about March madness in the NFL. That

18
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 4: equates to the new league year, free agency, kaponomics, mock drafts.

19
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 4: This is where you trade the helmets for hard hats. Right,

20
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 4: a construction zone if you will, no uniforms, just orange cones,

21
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 4: orange vest It is time to build, and hopefully what

22
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 4: you construct in these weeks here will be moving ready

23
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 4: by week one of the regular season. It is the

24
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 4: big Red Rage presented by Emergency here, Paul Kelvic here,

25
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 4: Ron Wolfully there. Well, if this is where you know what,

26
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 4: maybe it doesn't get a lot of attention, But when

27
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 4: you get into a season and you look back tis

28
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 4: the season right there, the new league year, you start

29
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 4: to realize, all right, this is where the building blocks

30
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 4: come from.

31
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about it. Paully, And once again, this

32
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: is the reason why the NFL is a year round sport.

33
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: It really is the building in the off season, the construction,

34
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: the roster construction of the off season. It is critical

35
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: to actually winning games in the fall.

36
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 4: So the big Red Rage landscape our game plan, if

37
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 4: you will, guess what we're going to hear from a

38
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 4: bunch of new free agents new Arizona Cardinals Andrew Wingard,

39
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 4: Isaac Saamalo, Tyler Aljeer, Kendrick Bourne. Let me tell you

40
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 4: there's a couple of internal competitions going on right now.

41
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 4: Who's got the best hair between Roy Lopez, Saamalo and

42
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,639
Speaker 4: wingerd who's bringing the most energy. Kendrick Bourne is right

43
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 4: up there. Wingard's going to give him a run for

44
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 4: his money. So all that's coming our way, We're gonna

45
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 4: get to some of the free agent signings and what

46
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 4: it means for the draft, what it means on either

47
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 4: side of the ball special teams as well. But Wolf,

48
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 4: we had a little bit of news, little bit of news,

49
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 4: mac Wilson Senior letting everyone know on social media today

50
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 4: he is going to be wearing wait for it, the

51
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 4: number one this season.

52
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: Oh oh, that is interesting right there, Okay, number one

53
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: and Mac Wilson Senior. And you know what, Honestly, I

54
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:16,399
Speaker 1: think that's gonna fit because man, it's a situation where

55
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: last year did the Arizona Cardinals miss Mac Wilson. You

56
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: better believe that they missed him in a big, big way.

57
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 4: In fact, if we're talking about the most underappreciated, underrated

58
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 4: free agents signing so far, it might be that same position.

59
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 4: We'll get to that in a minute. But there's a

60
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 4: bit of a trickle down. See Mac Wilson Senior used

61
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 4: to wear number two when Will Johnson was in Michigan

62
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 4: making all those plays. What number did he wear? Number two?

63
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 4: So Will Johnson is going to take Mac Wilson Senior's

64
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 4: old number. So Mac Wilson Senior number one with Kyler gone,

65
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 4: and then Will Johnson is going to be number two

66
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 4: this year. So yes, okay, that makes sense, Paul. Well By,

67
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 4: By the way, we can talk about a bunch of

68
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 4: other names, and there's a lot of names, and there's

69
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 4: a lot of movement. I don't know if there's one

70
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 4: signing or one guy that stands out to you Wolf

71
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 4: when it comes to maybe most important or you know,

72
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 4: makes the most sense. Where does your eye go?

73
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, as a matter of fact, Paul, for me, it's

74
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 1: two people. Actually, it's Isaac Samalo of course, and tylerrel Jeer.

75
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: Those two guys specifically the Arizona Cardinals. To me, I

76
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,679
Speaker 1: want to see them get more physical on the line

77
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. And of course Isaac Saamalo coming from the

78
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers. I got a bit of a scouting report

79
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 1: about a year ago on Isaac Samalo from my older

80
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,599
Speaker 1: brother Craig, of course, and Max Starks is somebody who

81
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 1: knows him really, really well. So specifically, those two gentlemen

82
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 1: told me really really good things about Isaac Samalu and

83
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: the type of player that he is. It's going to

84
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 1: be awesome to see him added to this offensive line.

85
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: And then tylerrel Jeer and This is something you and

86
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: I have had conversation about, Polly, But this guy is

87
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: a North South physical runner. I absolutely love how he

88
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 1: runs the ball. I said it when he came into

89
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: the league he was a fifth round pick. It blew

90
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 1: my mind that he was there in the fifth round.

91
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: He ran the ball so well and has run the

92
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: ball well since being a pro. In between the tackles

93
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: and man, does that sound an awful lot.

94
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 4: Like James Connor, No doubt. I mean there's there's going

95
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 4: to be an internal competition who's going to break more

96
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 4: tackles this year? Tyler Ljier, James Connor. They've both been

97
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 4: top five in the league in miss tackles force, So

98
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 4: that'll be something to watch it. What does it say,

99
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 4: maybe if he had zoom out a little bit just

100
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 4: about the style of football the Cardinals want to play.

101
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 4: If you're going to beat teams this year and you're

102
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 4: in the most talented division, not only in the NFL

103
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 4: but in the NFL many years. I mean, the NFL

104
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 4: dot Com put out its power rankings because of course

105
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 4: they have to put out power rankings in March. They

106
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 4: can't help themselves at NFL dot Com, so they put

107
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 4: him out and number one Seattle defending Super Bowl champions,

108
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 4: Number two the Rams who feel like they should have

109
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 4: won the Super Bowl, and then number five the forty

110
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,679
Speaker 4: nine Ers after they added Mike Evans and Christian Kirk,

111
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 4: the former Cardinal, among others. So three of the other

112
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 4: teams in the division are top five in the most

113
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 4: recent power rankings. So to me, okay, how are you

114
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 4: going to beat these teams? You know what first thing

115
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 4: you do is you beat them up, and to your point,

116
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 4: you make sure you're physical enough to hold up. So

117
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 4: so yes, you get Isaac Samlin. We'll hear from him

118
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 4: a little bit later. But flip over to the other

119
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 4: side of the ball, you know, Dalvin Thomas in a

120
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,719
Speaker 4: cap casualty. He ends up signing with the LA Chargers. Okay,

121
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 4: so now you bring in Roy Lopez, who got poached

122
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 4: by the Lions this time a year ago. He gets

123
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 4: a two year deal reported seven million guaranteed ability to

124
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 4: make up to eleven million. Great stuff for the Valley

125
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 4: native fan favorite Roy Lopez. But then you also bring

126
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 4: in Andrew Billings, who, at six one three forty plus

127
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 4: is another one of those nose tackle run stuffing dudes.

128
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 4: So you know, you have Walter Nolan, you have Darius Robinson,

129
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 4: but if you can solidify four, toify the point on

130
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 4: that defensive line in the epicenter, I think that was

131
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 4: definitely a focus this free agency.

132
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, Paulie, I absolutely love the physicality and the signing

133
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 1: of physical football players, especially on the line of scrimmage.

134
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: We already talked about Sayamalu, But you know what, Elijah

135
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: Wilkinson Paully, here's a guy that played right tackle of

136
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 1: course for the Atlanta Falcons. I mean, this is a

137
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: guy that's you know, was an offensive line that finished

138
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: in the top ten in terms of rushing yards per

139
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: game and Paully protecting their quarterback. There were number eight

140
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 1: as a matter of fact, and rushing yards per game,

141
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: and there were number five in sacks per attempt allowed. Well,

142
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: started all seventeen games ball. It wasn't like this guy

143
00:07:55,320 --> 00:08:00,080
Speaker 1: was inserted for seven or eight games or a mishmash thereof.

144
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: He started all seventeen games. And the fact that he

145
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: was able to hold up to the point where they

146
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: had a successful offense and an offensive line that was

147
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 1: considered really really good. I think that also is somebody

148
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: I'm going to throw in there and say I want

149
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: to get more physical on the line of scrimmage. And man,

150
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: some of these signings they get me jacked up.

151
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 4: And you know what else, because there have been so

152
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 4: many mock drafts and have the Cardinals going right tackle,

153
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 4: going offensive tackle, ye number three overall, Elijah Willkay And

154
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 4: I know you're on board with that, and I have

155
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 4: I have no problem with that. But if you don't

156
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 4: sign an Elijah Wilkinson, if you don't sign a viable,

157
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 4: starting caliber right tackle to replace Joonah Williams. And by

158
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 4: the way, the Cardinals signed the other Joonah Williams, who's

159
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 4: a defensive lineman. He's also going to be on the

160
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 4: other side of the ball. But done to do digress.

161
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 4: But Elijah Wilkinson there, So now it's not as much

162
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 4: of a tell. It's not as much of a need

163
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 4: at number three over or maybe a top round two.

164
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 4: So let's say you want to go edge rusher. Now

165
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,559
Speaker 4: you do theoretically have the ability to go edge rusher

166
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,199
Speaker 4: because to your point, Wilkinson did start seventeen games last

167
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 4: year at right tackle.

168
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: Yes, And who would you like to see them sign, Paul,

169
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: Who would you like to see them draft at number three.

170
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 4: David Bailey, thank you. Yeah, if he's there. If he's

171
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 4: there the Edge Rusher, Okay, but I Francis Mauino, your

172
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 4: guy is there at number three. I get it as well.

173
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 4: You know, I have no idea. There's one area near

174
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 4: the one of us that I've ever been allowed entry into,

175
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 4: and that's the draft room. We've never seen the big

176
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 4: board to this day, so I have no idea how

177
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 4: they have them rated. I have no idea whatsoever. All

178
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 4: I know is you can join Cardinals Premiere Travel August

Speaker 4: Trafisky.

186
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 6: Lets you truck intercepted stepping in front, is wingered, and

Speaker 6: a winner remains on his feet into Pittsburgh territory.

188
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,319
Speaker 4: All right, So if you go back to Cardinals in

189
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,079
Speaker 4: Jacksonville a year ago, which was a three point Jacksonville win,

190
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 4: here in the az welcome back in to the big

191
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 4: red rage presented by emergency air Paul calvc Ron Wolfley

192
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 4: in the newest Arizona Cardinal Andrew Wingert, who was the

193
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 4: deep safety on that fourth down heave by Jacoby Brissett

194
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 4: to Xavier Weaver and who comes in at the last minute,

195
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 4: closes a lot of ground in a short amount of

196
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 4: time and then gets his paw up there on the

197
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 4: fly to break up that fourth down desperation heat by

198
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,959
Speaker 4: the Cardinals. Well that was Andrew who maybe just maybe

199
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 4: caught the eye of the general manager many Ausinport because

200
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 4: guess what, he comes on board a one year deal

201
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 4: reported three to four million after seven years with Jacksonville

202
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 4: and wolf If you've seen Wingert, he has the hair

203
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 4: flying out of the helmet, not unlike Dennis Gardak. There's

204
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 4: a similar vibe there between the Barbarian and Andrew Winger.

205
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, break it on man. Let's hope

206
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:29,199
Speaker 1: he plays like the barbarian played. Winger to me once again, PAULI,

207
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: I look at him and he's more of a box guy.

208
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 1: I think a box safety that also is really going

209
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 1: to help the Arizona Cardinals out in terms of transition,

210
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: and there's special teams and you know how much I

211
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: love that, the affinity that I have for Andrew winger

212
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 1: because he knows how to play in transition and plays

213
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,439
Speaker 1: a very, very physical game, just like the Barbarian.

214
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 4: Did you know he had eighty four tackles last year

215
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 4: as a safety. That's pretty dan good. We're so used

216
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,959
Speaker 4: to Buddha Baker being so elite. He was one of

217
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 4: the leading tacklers Andrew Wingert on that Jacksonville defense, a

218
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 4: team that went from four wins to thirteen wins. We

219
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 4: talked to him about that. He's done that twice with

220
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,599
Speaker 4: Jacksonville where they finished in last place and then the

221
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 4: next year gone to the playoffs. So if you're looking

222
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 4: to make that same jump, here's a guy who's been

223
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 4: there and done that. It's interesting because, among other things,

224
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 4: he told us just how close he thinks the Cardinals are.

225
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 4: That he thought they really had enough talent on that roster.

226
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 4: And you know on how many close games did the

227
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 4: Cardinals lose, especially the first two thirds of last season.

228
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 4: But here's a guy, really experienced, age twenty nine, self

229
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 4: made man, right, he was undrafted and fast. In fact,

230
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 4: we talked about that. Take a listen to and you

231
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 4: can notice the work ethic, you can notice the mentality intensity.

232
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 4: As we started talking to Andrew Wingert and among the

233
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 4: topics just about him going undrafted and his play style.

234
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 4: I've told people this a lot.

235
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 7: Going undrafted was probably the best thing that ever happened

236
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 7: to me, because I remember going into my senior year

237
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 7: at Wyoming, kiper Is saying this, McShay saying that, and

238
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 7: I'm like, oh, I'm the greatest thing ever. I'm going

239
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 7: to get drafted and blah blah blah, and then boom,

240
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 7: it's like, oh, so my senior year I was slacking off.

241
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 7: I was reality check. It was a great reality check

242
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 7: for me, and it lit a fire in me. It

243
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 7: got that dog back in me, and that's kind of

244
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,839
Speaker 7: who I was. I was a two star recruit out

245
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,200
Speaker 7: of high school. Wyoming was my only FBS offer, so

246
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 7: going undrafted really kind of rekindled those things within me.

247
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 7: And I was like, I'm going to make the fifty

248
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 7: three and I'm never going to look back. And then

249
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 7: I did, and I thankfully put into the game. You

250
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 7: know a lot of guys kind of just go around

251
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 7: unconscious and just play and don't really try to elevate

252
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 7: themselves mentally, and that's kind of been my biggest thing

253
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 7: closing in on a decade career is the mental side

254
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 7: has really pushed me and that's what I've really focused

255
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 7: on and it's helped me a ton, and I'm just thankful,

256
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 7: like I said, going undrafted to to get that fire

257
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 7: within me to do all those little things that I

258
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 7: did to get myself here. I wouldn't have been able

259
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 7: to if I hadn't have done those, So it's just

260
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 7: a and I kind of am even more motivated now

261
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 7: than I ever have been.

262
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 5: So for those who haven't seen you play, how would

263
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 5: you describe your style as a safety.

264
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, I would say it's it's rugged. I love to

265
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 7: play kind of old school. Do your job, but once

266
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 7: you arrive, do it violently and do it psychotically kind

267
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 7: of if you will. So that's kind of going to

268
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 7: be my It'll probably be similar to Buddha just absolutely

269
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 7: fly around, go one thousand miles an hour and see

270
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 7: what happens, so but with a little bit of discipline

271
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 7: there to do your job. So hopefully they see that style.

272
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 7: And I've definitely tried to expand my game as as

273
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 7: my career has gone on. To you know, be more

274
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 7: finesse and cover well and you know, break on the

275
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 7: ball with range and the deep you know, deep path,

276
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 7: deep middle. So continuing to evolve and hopefully I can

277
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 7: be a do it all guy.

278
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 1: You know.

279
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 4: Buddha calls it running into the darkness. M hm.

280
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 5: Are you born with that or is that something maybe

281
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 5: your desperation of not getting drafted. I mean, that is

282
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 5: that ingraineding you with so pointer you just think that's intrinsic.

283
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 4: It's a good.

284
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 7: Question because I remember when I first started playing football,

285
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 7: I was so scared, like in little league and in

286
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 7: middle school, Like I was like, didn't want to get hit.

287
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 7: And then for whatever reason, you know, my dad one

288
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 7: day in little league football, he's like he's like, you know,

289
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 7: be the f and hammer, not the f and nail,

290
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 7: you know, And I was like, okay. And then there

291
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 7: was one I remember one day it hit me in

292
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 7: like middle school practice. I finally just didn't, you know,

293
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 7: didn't tense up, and I actually went and I was like,

294
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 7: holy cow, that didn't hurt. I'm fine now. And then boom.

295
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 7: From from then on, it's like, go in, go one

296
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 7: thousand miles an hour. Be the hammer, not the nail.

297
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 7: So whether it's intrinsic, whether it's learned, I don't know,

298
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 7: but thankfully I got it somehow, some way.

299
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 4: Well, Wolf, ten years, ten years in the Utfeld, that

300
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 4: was definitely your mentality. Be the hammer, not the nail.

301
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 4: Tell PAULI, I mean, this guy is my soul.

302
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: Bro. That's the first that I have heard from Winger,

303
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: And oh my goodness, that is so spot on so

304
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: many different things. I wrote down here taking notes as

305
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: he was speaking. PAULI, first of all, just the undrafted

306
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: the best thing that ever happened to him, you know,

307
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: I mean, there's not a lot of guys who would

308
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 1: actually say that, but in retrospect, he obviously was talking

309
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: about what it did, the burr that it put under

310
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: his saddle, metaphorically speaking and making the fifty three and

311
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: never looking back, and his style when he was talking

312
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: about his style being rugged and old school and psychotically

313
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 1: playing the game of football. Paul, you know this because

314
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: I've told you this many many times. But I you know,

315
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: so many guys thought I was insane, They really did.

316
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: They thought I was insane. In Paul, is you know

317
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 1: I nurtured that thought? Yea, because I knew if you

318
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 1: thought I was insane, I had the advantage because I

319
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: was going to do some crazy stuff. And you know me, Paully,

320
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 1: I believe that God is holding me right in his

321
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 1: right hand. And because He's holding me in his right hand,

322
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: I don't ever have to worry about anything that's gonna

323
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 1: happen to me on the football field. So I could

324
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 1: run down the field like a madman. It just faery

325
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,399
Speaker 1: my face and just some guy that was three times

326
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: my size, and it didn't matter. I loved it. And

327
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: yet I'm listening to Andrew Wingard talk about pretty much

328
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 1: the same mentality. It comes from a different place with him,

329
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 1: but man, the mentality in the end is there.

330
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 4: When he says, do it violently, do it psychotically. There's

331
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 4: a lot of Dennis Gardak in that. You know that

332
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 4: it really is. And he said when he showed up

333
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 4: in Jacksonville, because that's where Gardak went, that the two

334
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 4: of them saw each other for the first time across

335
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 4: the locker room and there's like, oh, yeah, you're my

336
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 4: kind of guy. You know, two guys with long hair

337
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 4: and start a bed. Yeah it's uh. And by the way,

338
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 4: you know, some people think he resembles Dennis Gardek or

339
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,120
Speaker 4: some people think he has a Pat Tillman vibe, especially

340
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 4: when had long hair. I think both those plus add

341
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 4: a little Kirk Cobain, that's me. That's he's sort of

342
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 4: like a walking ink blot test, you know, in a

343
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 4: lot of ways. It's uh. And and I let him

344
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 4: know the long history of supreme safety play in the

345
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 4: history of the Arizona Cardinals Hall of Famer Larry Wilson,

346
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 4: five time Pro bowler, Adrian Wilson, Tim McDonald who was

347
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 4: so underrated and so good, right, yes, Tyron, Matthew, Buddha Baker.

348
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 4: I mean, so you know, there's a lot of history

349
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 4: great safety play, and and I just think he's going

350
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 4: to be a really good fit in this Nick Rowlis scheme.

351
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Probably, No, I think you're right about that. He's

352
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: got the mentality and the physicality. Do you be that

353
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: box guy? I think, And I think they're going to

354
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: get a little bit more out of him in regard

355
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 1: to his safety position, in backing him a little bit

356
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 1: off the ball. We'll have to wait and see how

357
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 1: he develops, and that regard in Nick rawler his defense.

358
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: Yet having said that once again too, this is a

359
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 1: guy that loves to play in transition on special teams,

360
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: and Paul, I think I think the Arizona Cardinals need

361
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: a guy that is like that. Once again, I think

362
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: they need a guy that is dedicated to the transition

363
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 1: game and playing it as physically as you possibly can.

364
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: And hopefully that is going to be something that will

365
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: be contagious inside that locker room.

366
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 4: And again, he's on a one year deal. So you know,

367
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 4: all these national pundits can talk about some teams maybe

368
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 4: not you know, playing their hardest or No, there are

369
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 4: so many guys in there on one and two year deals,

370
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,719
Speaker 4: on prove it contracts. So a guy like Andrew Winning, Yeah,

371
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 4: I mean he's gonna bring it, There's no doubt about it.

372
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 4: So between the state CA, Yeah, go ahead.

373
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. Can I just ask you this? Sorry to interrupt you,

374
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,239
Speaker 1: but you know I was looking at my notes here

375
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,400
Speaker 1: and it says he goes by Dewey.

376
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 4: Okay, what is that, Paul deal?

377
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: What do you know about that?

378
00:19:58,040 --> 00:19:59,479
Speaker 4: He says, it goes all the way back to when

379
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,439
Speaker 4: he was four years of age or so, and it

380
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 4: was either a sibling or a neighbor kid, and younger

381
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 4: kids couldn't pronounce Andrew, and they called him do Dewey

382
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 4: and it's stuck. And so ever since he's been called Dewey.

383
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 1: And he's got an alter ego named Morris the Blade,

384
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 1: and even I did have an alter ego, Paul.

385
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is next level. This is he says, when

386
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 4: he gets into his flow state and he's on the field,

387
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,639
Speaker 4: he tries to channel Morris the Blade and alter ego,

388
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 4: which I guess just you know, take no prisoners type

389
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 4: of style. I'm not exactly sure, but I'm very intrigued

390
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 4: to find out that in the fact that the Cardinal's

391
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 4: safety room they all go by nicknames Buddha, Rabbit, Dewey,

392
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 4: and Bug Keaton Crawford. Hey, little more about Cardinals ticket

393
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,400
Speaker 4: options go to ezycardinals dot com slash tickets. We continue

394
00:20:54,440 --> 00:21:02,679
Speaker 4: with a big red rage presented by Emergency. Are former

395
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:03,479
Speaker 4: Falcons running back?

396
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 8: Do you know?

397
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 6: Outjeer reach an agreement today with the Arizona Cardinals that

398
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 6: the Cardinals Mardinals.

399
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 4: Is a new the floor operation out there. That is

400
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 4: quite a tough backfield. When you've got Jaimes Connor coming

401
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 4: up the injury and Tyler Algier who runs hard, that's

402
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 4: a pretty good combination of the Arizona Cardinals out in

403
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 4: the desert with their new head coach Michaelafloor, al Tier

404
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 4: seeking the end zone.

405
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: Handy bowling balls in for the touchdown enough to turner

406
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: Aljier the power back.

407
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 4: He left those too, puts into the end zone.

408
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: That Alchier is trying to slice.

409
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,239
Speaker 9: The tunes he's dishing got coachman.

410
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 4: Oh here, I love the descriptive words, right, bowling, ball, muscles, powers,

411
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:51,879
Speaker 4: dishes out punishment. Yep, that pretty much describes Tyler Algier.

412
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,120
Speaker 4: I know when we saw him for the first time.

413
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 4: Twenty twenty two is rookie year, second last game of

414
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,199
Speaker 4: the season, Cardinals at Atlanta, And in a commercial break,

415
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 4: the two US and Dave Pash we're talking and we're like,

416
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 4: who is this guy? And they're like, Okay, played linebacker

417
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 4: at BYU before he became a second team All American

418
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,439
Speaker 4: running back. Well, that makes sense based on the style

419
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 4: of play and how hard he runs the ball. It's

420
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 4: the Big Red Rage presented by Emergency Here Paul kelvc

421
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 4: Ron wolf Lee, and Tyler Algier. Wolf your thoughts is

422
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 4: a guy who spent ten years in a running back room.

423
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, Pauly. This is a guy you and I have

424
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 1: had conversations about in the past when he was playing

425
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: for the Falcons, of course, just how much we love

426
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,239
Speaker 1: the way that he ran the ball. He is a

427
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: North South guy. November there was a North South guy.

428
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: He's five ten, two hundred and twenty five pounds. I

429
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 1: just like saying I just like saying five ten, two

430
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 1: twenty five because I know, right around November, right around Thanksgiving,

431
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: you're somewhere in that vicinity. He's gonna be five ten,

432
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: two thirty. Paul. I'm just telling you he's gonna put

433
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,479
Speaker 1: on five pounds over the year. And it's so hard

434
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: to tackle a guy that dips in rips when he's

435
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: five to ten, two hundred and twenty five, two hundred

436
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: thirty pounds.

437
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:08,159
Speaker 4: Tyler L.

438
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 1: Geer shacks me up, because if you tell me you've

439
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: got James Connor and you have Tyler Ljeer, those are

440
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 1: your two backs. What did What does that tell you?

441
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:19,440
Speaker 10: Paul?

442
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 1: Does that tell you anything?

443
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 4: Hashtag pound game that they're they're coming right at you.

444
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 1: I mean they're coming right at you. And I love

445
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 1: that and you know it, Paul.

446
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 4: All Right, So Tyler L.

447
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: Geer.

448
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 4: I mean, just a lot of respect for a guy

449
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 4: who was a walk on at BYU and then ended

450
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 4: up as a second team All American over sixteen hundred

451
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 4: rushing yards his last year at BYU. He's a fifth

452
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 4: round rookie rushes for one thousand yards in twenty twenty two,

453
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 4: his rookie year. The last four weeks. He was the

454
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 4: second leading rusher in the NFL over the final month

455
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 4: of his rookie season. And then what happens They take

456
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 4: Bjeon Robinson in the top ten. And so here's a

457
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,679
Speaker 4: guy who's look, he's looking forward to a chance to

458
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 4: be you know, now he's gonna split carriers with James Connor,

459
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 4: but still, I mean to be showcased a little bit

460
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 4: more and to be playing in Mike Lafleur's scheme. Here's

461
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:11,400
Speaker 4: Tyler Algier on that.

462
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 10: E scided about the opportunity. I think, obviously we've seen

463
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 10: how successful the Rams are, so being able to have

464
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 10: coach Laflour here and she being able to possibly possibly replicated,

465
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 10: I think that's the goal. I think they're bringing in

466
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 10: a lot of guys to build that. So I think

467
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 10: just building a team just to get some wins. So

468
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:30,719
Speaker 10: I think that's the most important thing.

469
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,880
Speaker 4: You can hear the entire sit down at Cardinals cover too.

470
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 4: You know what's interesting is all the receivers in the

471
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 4: tight ends they say, oh we can't wait, you know

472
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 4: coach Lafleur scheme the Rams and forty nine ers. Well,

473
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 4: it's not just the passing game. It's the run game, man, Wolf,

474
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 4: you know better than anyone. I mean, Shanahan runs the ball,

475
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 4: Sean McVeigh commits to the run, and so I fully

476
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 4: expect this to be a balanced offense.

477
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: Paully, There's no doubt about it. This is a thing

478
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 1: that really gets me jacked up when I think of

479
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: the Rams. By way of examp, I think of the

480
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: zone scheme because back when Sean McVay was first taking

481
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 1: over the Los Angeles Rams, of course they ran a

482
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,359
Speaker 1: ton of zone and they have they through the vast

483
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: majority of his career as the head coach of the

484
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,159
Speaker 1: LA Rams, He's run a ton of zone scheme. But

485
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 1: having said that, PAULI the last year specifically last two

486
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: years really, but the last year specifically, Man, they've also

487
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 1: blended in a lot of power schemes, gap schemes that

488
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: are being run with twelve personnel and thirteen personnel using

489
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 1: two and three tight ends. I just really am excited

490
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 1: by the possibility of this. It's one of the reasons

491
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: why I want to continue to build on the line

492
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 1: of scrimmage, build the offense. And if you told me

493
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals were gonna draft, if you're here, we're

494
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 1: gonna go ahead. They were gonna pick Maui Noah at

495
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: number three and go ahead and use their second round

496
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: pick on a menu. Well, pregnant, Paul, I'd be done.

497
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: I'd be ready to go. Those two young guys, mix

498
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,919
Speaker 1: them in with the old guys, and let's see what

499
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: kind of nastiness we can get at the point of

500
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 1: attack when you have Tyler Ljeer and James Connor stoking

501
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: it in a North South fashion.

502
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 4: You know the saying that a run game is a

503
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,159
Speaker 4: quarterback's best friend. Well, by the end of last season,

504
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 4: Jacoby Brissette was awful, lonely because the Cardinals were down

505
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 4: to their fifth and sixth string running backs, thirteen different

506
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 4: offensive linemen. Nobody had fewer rushing attempts than the Arizona Cardinals.

507
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 4: So you know, Jacoby Brissett's looking forward to it. Here's

508
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 4: my question from your experience, how much will a Tyler

509
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 4: Algier and James Connor push each other in that running

510
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 4: back room? Because you know how competitive James Connor is

511
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 4: and you know how you know how physical he is,

512
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 4: and then Algier plays with a similar style, and then

513
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 4: there's the old saying, you get enough dogs in there,

514
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,360
Speaker 4: the cats start barking. Well, what about what about Trey Benson?

515
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,040
Speaker 4: You know he's an approved.

516
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: Year Yeah, no, Paul, there's no doubt about it. I

517
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 1: could see Trey Benson being more of a third down guy.

518
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 1: But in regard to James Connor and Tyler Lgier, can

519
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: I just say I don't know how much they're gonna

520
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 1: push each other because individually, Paul, these guys are dogs.

521
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:25,639
Speaker 1: They are James Connor. Yeah, James Connor's not gonna go

522
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 1: out and go oh Tyler ed Joe. Now, I'm gonna

523
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,119
Speaker 1: run even harder. And you know Lgier's not gonna look

524
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 1: at James Connor and say, oh, man, I better run.

525
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 3: No.

526
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna feed off each other, no doubt

527
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,120
Speaker 1: about that. But I think the great thing about it

528
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: is their approach is never gonna change individually, they are

529
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 1: who they are.

530
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 4: What's amazing is they both played on the defensive side

531
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 4: of the ball in college. It's just remarkable. And then

532
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 4: Tyler that is he said, he's not superstitious, so we

533
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 4: can mention this. He's never lost a fumble in his

534
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 4: NFL career, so that that is remarkable to him. He said,

535
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 4: you know, ball security is job security. That's the way

536
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 4: he was always taught. So he takes that ultra seriously.

537
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 4: And then we sort of talked about, all right, guess what,

538
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 4: it's third and one, it's fourth and you gotta have it.

539
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 4: You're gonna give it to Algier, You're gonna give it

540
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,360
Speaker 4: to James Connor. Who you're running behind. Well, I think

541
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 4: that guy right now would be Isaac Samalo, the pro

542
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 4: bowler in twenty twenty four, he's getting more than thirty

543
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 4: million over a three year contract. Reportedly. You know, he's

544
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 4: highly rated. A year ago as the left guard for

545
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 4: the Steelers, you gotta figure he's gonna be plugging play

546
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 4: for the Cardinals. Here he is Cardinals Cover two sit down.

547
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 4: We had a chance to visit with him, and Isaac

548
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 4: Samalo is starting with his game and his pursuit of perfection.

549
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 11: I think offensive line is very tough to you know,

550
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 11: pinpoint which you're good at, what your weekend, because as

551
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 11: soon as you say you're good at something, uh, there's

552
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 11: a good chance in the NFL, you know, you'll be

553
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 11: exposed to it's exposed to it. And offensive line is

554
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 11: very similar. I always thinking to like corner, right, you

555
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 11: could have sixty five great reps, but that one rep

556
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 11: that's not so great is what will be focused on

557
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,959
Speaker 11: versus you play d line or receiver. You get one

558
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 11: really good play a game and you're, you know, all pro.

559
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 11: So I I really restrained from trying to name strengths

560
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 11: and weaknesses. You know, I'm obviously very self aware, but

561
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 11: to me, you know, I'm always trying to work on

562
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 11: what can I do to get better? What can I

563
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 11: do to help my teammates.

564
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 8: How do you then, at the end of a game

565
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 8: grade yourself. We see what the metrics are, you know,

566
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 8: but how do you at the end of a Sunday say,

567
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 8: all right, this was a good game, regardless of you know,

568
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 8: the winner of the loss.

569
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 11: Yeah, you know, I just look at pfif.

570
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 4: Well right here it says well, I mean you have

571
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 4: the lowest pass pressure rate allowed. That was next gen

572
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 4: stats for any guard last year.

573
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 11: That's you know, that's good stuff. But I think most,

574
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 11: especially offensive lineman, know at the end of the game

575
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 11: if they played well, if they didn't play well. I

576
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 11: think first and foremost, I just want to give unbelievable

577
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 11: effort and everything I do in each play and try

578
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 11: to finish as much as I can. Obviously, you never

579
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 11: want to let your QB get hit, and you never

580
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 11: want the running back to your gut to make the

581
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 11: tackle in the run game. But you know, there's there's

582
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 11: so much that goes into feeling if you had a

583
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 11: good or bad game. But at the end of the day,

584
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 11: like you know, I try to be as a harsh

585
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 11: the harshest critic of myself and keep myself at a

586
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 11: really high standard regardless of the wins and losses, because

587
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 11: at the end of the day, you know, the only

588
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 11: way I can help the team win is by doing

589
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 11: my job at the highest level, so that that pursuit

590
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 11: of perfection is always there. Perfection is not attainable, but

591
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 11: the pursuit of it and the process of it, I

592
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 11: think is.

593
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 8: Ten years in the league, about to go into year

594
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 8: eleven as a former third round pick. Could you have

595
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:55,959
Speaker 8: imagined being in the league this long and being this successful? Uh?

596
00:30:56,160 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 11: Not at all. But I will give a shout outs

597
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 11: Tolannie Rosen, who is a sports psychologist that really helped

598
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 11: change my whole mental attitude when while I was in Philly,

599
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 11: to really live in the moment and not you know,

600
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 11: especially at offensive line, you let you let things kind

601
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 11: of get to you. The past plays and it catches

602
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 11: up and it feels like Domino's falling, and it feels

603
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 11: like you're kind of drowning in the deep end of

604
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 11: the pool. Being able to kind of go from one

605
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 11: play to the next and not necessarily focus on the

606
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 11: past or the future or any circumstance, which is what's

607
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 11: my job right now. How can I play that to

608
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 11: the best of my ability. I really try to approach

609
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 11: that and during the season, during the offseason, you know,

610
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 11: not let the stresses of future or past stuff get

611
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 11: to me because there's always a time for that.

612
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 4: It's really interesting. He credits that sports psychologist for his mentals,

613
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 4: and ever since he left Philly, he's really played his

614
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 4: best ball. I mean, he had some great years for

615
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 4: the Steelers Pro Bowl or two years ago. He's sort

616
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:01,320
Speaker 4: of kind of blossomed late in his early thirties. And

617
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 4: here's a guy who came out of high school and

618
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 4: is a true freshman at Oregon State, a good Oregon

619
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 4: State program at the time. He started as a true

620
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 4: freshman at center like he ran the whole show. So

621
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 4: you know, obviously high football IQ as well. I just

622
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 4: looking forward, we've had a big turnstyle because the injuries

623
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 4: at the two guard positions the last couple of years. Man,

624
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 4: if you can get a full season of an Isaac Samalo,

625
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 4: I think that'll go a long way.

626
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Paully, I'm thinking of first and ten rundown situation.

627
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 1: I'm thinking of twelve personnel, one back, two tight ends,

628
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: tip Ryman lined up to the left and then Trey

629
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: McBride lined up to the right. Of course, I'm thinking

630
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: of Tyler l Jeer or maybe it's James Connor with

631
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: his toes at seven yards, and I'm thinking of a

632
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: check with me, we're either going to run it to

633
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 1: the left behind Tip Ryman or Trey McBride to the right,

634
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: and just go ahead and run the zone scheme and

635
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 1: let these guys go where they're gonna go, and I

636
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 1: think of Sayamalo as well being a guy that is

637
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: gonna come off the ball. Can you imagine lined up

638
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 1: at left guard alongside Paris Johnson Junior ling. Just the

639
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 1: fact that's a physical, physical left side of the line

640
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 1: of scrimmage, I'm really really excited to see what that

641
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: could yield this season.

642
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, right now, if it's third and gotta have it

643
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 4: or fourth down, you're running left right, Yeah, you're definitely running.

644
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 4: Here's the other thing. Are the Cardinals going to run

645
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,720
Speaker 4: the tush push this year? I know, Wolf, it's not

646
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 4: your favorite, but guess what. Isaac Samalo told us that

647
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 4: they ran it in Philly when he was there, and

648
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 4: he's a fan of it because it's unstoppable and if

649
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 4: you run it right, if you run it right, and

650
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 4: so he said he's actually going to suggest and actively

651
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 4: suggest to coach Lafleur, we need to run the tushbush.

652
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 1: Pauly. You know the way I feel about this. I

653
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: despise the tushbush. I really do know. I don't think

654
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: it's a football play. I do not yet. Having said that,

655
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 1: if you're not using it, if the NFL is going

656
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 1: to allow you to use it, not trying to win

657
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 1: if you're not using it seriously. Because if it's almost

658
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 1: automatic on a fourth and one or a fourth and two,

659
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 1: third and two, it's almost automatic if you run it twice.

660
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: That's the reason why I hate it, because it shouldn't

661
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: be automatic in that situation, but it is if you

662
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 1: run it the right way. And that to me is

663
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,320
Speaker 1: the reason why I say, yeah, I hate the tush push,

664
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 1: But man, would I use it? You better believe I'd

665
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 1: use it.

666
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 4: All Right, We're gonna save the highest energy guy for last.

667
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 4: We'll come back. We'll hear from Kendrick Bourne. Also, I'm

668
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 4: gonna name a few names when it comes to maybe underrated,

669
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 4: underappreciated free agent signings. As we continue to take a

670
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 4: look at this revamp roster, what it means going into

671
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 4: the draft, what it means in terms of special teams,

672
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 4: A number of editions there as well. We roll on

673
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,279
Speaker 4: It is the big red Rage presented by emergency Air

674
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 4: Dubernate backpedaling. Is gonna play it.

675
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 3: From inside the thirty Duberni play's a steed deep into

676
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,720
Speaker 3: the return game. What to play by Duberni du Breney

677
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 3: the Probowl return man Ubernet across the thirty five, trying

678
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 3: to get to the outside.

679
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 4: He does.

680
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 2: Dubernay has midfield.

681
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,399
Speaker 4: Let's see where Duberne gets the up fast of all.

682
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 4: Dubernet rehearsing field, trying to get to the edge.

683
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 2: He's got the X.

684
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,839
Speaker 6: DuVernay, you buckle up anytime he's got his hands on him.

685
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: Here comes Devin Duberney. He's works three.

686
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 4: Devin Uberne Uberne from the thirty two.

687
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 6: He's gotta rock Formillison. He takes a.

688
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:42,840
Speaker 4: M goody Jeb knows.

689
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,919
Speaker 6: Ubernet takes it into the end zone.

690
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 1: He goes.

691
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 4: Dubern will prim it out.

692
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 1: He's gone look down the way, chase by the kicker.

693
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 1: The day he goes, who three yards?

694
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 4: Want some great up there? I always like the return

695
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 4: man's chances when you hear the words chased by the kicker,

696
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:10,800
Speaker 4: especially when Devin Dubernay is a former Texas one hundred

697
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 4: meter state champ in high school ran at ten to

698
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,319
Speaker 4: two seven one hundred meters, a two time Pro Bowl

699
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 4: return man for Baltimore twenty one twenty two. Comes over

700
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 4: from the Bears, and here's a fun factoid. Cousin of

701
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,360
Speaker 4: Kyler Murray, Devin DuVernay. How about that?

702
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 1: Wow?

703
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,919
Speaker 4: Yep, with that Texas connection. It is the big red

704
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 4: rage presented by Emergency or Paul kelvc Ron Wolfley and

705
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 4: and look Greg Dorch on board with the Lions. Amari

706
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 4: de Mercado he exited as well. So Devin Duberne a

707
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 4: guy return. He's return a ton of kicks and a

708
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,760
Speaker 4: ton of punts, and right now, Wolf you gotta figure

709
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 4: he's going to be the main weapon in that regard.

710
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, PAULI there's no doubt. And you know me, I

711
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 1: love myself a good kick returner. I mean, are you

712
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: kidding me? Right now? Vaisik comes to mind. Oh yeah,

713
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 1: when I think of DuVernay, DuVernay is a guy. He's

714
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 1: way taller than vib Vi was only five to nine.

715
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 1: You know, he's got a couple inches on him right there.

716
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 1: But Vi was really compact as well. And Dubernay is

717
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 1: a little thick too. He's over two hundred pounds. Paul,

718
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 1: he had once again, I love this because I know

719
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:25,840
Speaker 1: how a punt return kick return guy can impact momentum,

720
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 1: especially on the sideline.

721
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,800
Speaker 4: Paul. It's not just on the field, it's also on

722
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 4: the sideline.

723
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: Suddenly you get a big return, even a twenty yard return,

724
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: whether it's a punt or a kickoff, and you bust

725
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:42,799
Speaker 1: that first line and you actually give your offense field position. Man,

726
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 1: you can feel the momentum. Special teams is one area

727
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 1: in the game of football where you truly can build

728
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 1: momentum and feel a momentum shift if you make a

729
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:55,280
Speaker 1: play in teams.

730
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, and there are other guys who I think are

731
00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,919
Speaker 4: going to be playmakers on special teams. A Jack Gibb

732
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 4: who comes over from New England, a backup linebacker out

733
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 4: more on him in a little bit. Simmy fay Hoko, right,

734
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,759
Speaker 4: who made a lot of plays on teams last year

735
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 4: before his season ending injury. You mentioned Andrew Winger. That's

736
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 4: where he got his start. He still plays team so

737
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 4: that's all good. And then of course Devin Dumerne, a

738
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,800
Speaker 4: receiver you got to figure, all right, he'll, you know,

739
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,919
Speaker 4: push a Kendrick Bourne for that number three receiver spot.

740
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,399
Speaker 4: Simmy fay Hooko also in the receiver room, and which

741
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:30,919
Speaker 4: brings us to Kendrick Bourne and just his ten years

742
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 4: in the league, he's got a million dollar smile, his

743
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 4: energy is contagious, and he has a long history with

744
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 4: Mike Lafleur. He broke into the league with the forty

745
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,280
Speaker 4: nine Ers as an undrafted receiver who played with Cooper

746
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 4: Cup at Easter Washington. Mike Lafleur was the receivers coach

747
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:49,879
Speaker 4: at the time for the forty nine Ers. In fact,

748
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 4: we'll let Kendrick Bourne take it from there.

749
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 9: Mike would get me prepared. He would meet with me extra, like, hey,

750
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 9: I need you to be ready when you're going in

751
00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 9: a game. So we'd meet about twenty minutes extra before

752
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,720
Speaker 9: the game. As a young guy who was what I needed.

753
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 9: Sometimes I hated doing it. I mean, I just want

754
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 9: to go play. Mike just let me go play. But

755
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 9: he knew that he was preparing me. Giving me that

756
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 9: extra twenty minutes allowed me to maximize in the game.

757
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 9: And so what I loved about Mike is.

758
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 4: He that's what he did.

759
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 9: That pressure didn't feel so heavy when I was going

760
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 9: in on third down as a young guy, like I'm

761
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:21,879
Speaker 9: getting the ball. I kind of going I knowing I'm

762
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:23,839
Speaker 9: getting the ball, like and I need to make this play,

763
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,400
Speaker 9: keep us on the field, and I just had confidence

764
00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 9: And it was all because of Mike.

765
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 4: He gets a two year deal, comes over from the

766
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 4: forty nine ers. You know a lot of good stories

767
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:36,240
Speaker 4: from Kendrick Bourne about being on the Niners sideline. It's funny.

768
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:41,239
Speaker 4: He cited the trash talking that Trey McBride would throw

769
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,400
Speaker 4: all the shade he would throw at the Niners sideline,

770
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:46,399
Speaker 4: Like you know what a different dude tray is during

771
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,919
Speaker 4: the game, he said. After the second game, the one

772
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 4: here this past year. That was the game where Michael

773
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 4: Wilson went off for fifteen grabs a buck eighty five

774
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 4: on eighteen targets, he said. He went up to Michael

775
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 4: Wilson after the game. He said, I don't know who

776
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 4: you are, but you're a baller. My name's Kendrick. Nice

777
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 4: to meet you.

778
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:08,879
Speaker 1: That was great, Yeah, PAULI you know, once again, when

779
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 1: I think of the Rams as well, I think of

780
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 1: eleven personnel.

781
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 11: I do.

782
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,280
Speaker 1: I think of Sean McVay and I think of eleven personnel,

783
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 1: one back, one tight end, three wide receivers. And the

784
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 1: signing of Kendrick Bourne to me was so big because

785
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 1: Marvin Harrison Junior, of course, Michael Wilson and Kendrick Bourne big. Literally,

786
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 1: I think Kendrick Bourne is a pro. Okay, That's what

787
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,359
Speaker 1: I think of he's going to nowhere to go. He's

788
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 1: going to be able to run the right routes, and

789
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 1: if you've thrown the ball, he's going to catch the

790
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 1: ball the vast majority of the time. Michael Wilson exactly

791
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 1: the same way, Marvin Harrison Junior. These are big guys.

792
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 1: In all three of these guys, the one thing they

793
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 1: have in common, Paully, is the fact they all will

794
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:55,479
Speaker 1: block when called upon to block. And I love that, Paul,

795
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 1: And it's one of the things that I think of

796
00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 1: when I think of a team that might run the

797
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:04,719
Speaker 1: ball an awful lot in rundown situations. Out of eleven personnel,

798
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 1: I think Kendrick Bourne is going to get a ton

799
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,479
Speaker 1: of reps out there on the field because of those

800
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:13,359
Speaker 1: three wide the combination of those three guys, they can

801
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 1: run good routes. Squared away, you can throw them the ball,

802
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 1: they'll catch the ball. But more than that, they'll also

803
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 1: block in rundown situation. And I know that you don't

804
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: think of a receiver. Hey, it's so good that this

805
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 1: guy will go block. But at the same time, that's

806
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 1: how big plays actually happened, receivers blocking downfield.

807
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 4: And he's not going to get ten targets a game.

808
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,160
Speaker 4: Obviously he's wide receiver three. If that's the role he

809
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:41,840
Speaker 4: ends up earning, right, But he talked about, you know,

810
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:45,360
Speaker 4: guess what wide receiver three in money moments on third downs?

811
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 4: You know what does the defense do? Well, they're all

812
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 4: over Trey McBride and let's say you're going against the Rams,

813
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:52,799
Speaker 4: and he just added like Trent McDuffie, right, and now

814
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 4: he's on Marvin Arrison Junior. And then they added another

815
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 4: corner and okay, Michael Wilson, and maybe they have a

816
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 4: little extra help over the top of Michael Wilson. What

817
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 4: we see out of Jacoby Brissett, we saw the ability

818
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 4: of him for him to go through his reads and

819
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,920
Speaker 4: his progressions and if there's one experienced guy who can

820
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 4: find the fourth option, it is Jacoby Brissett. So it

821
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 4: just seems like, you know, wide receiver three is sort

822
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:16,799
Speaker 4: of forgotten about until he makes a key third down

823
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:18,560
Speaker 4: catch that extends a game winning.

824
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 1: Drive exactly poly And again to me, that is Kindric Born.

825
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:24,839
Speaker 1: The guy is a pro.

826
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:29,719
Speaker 4: So here's the one underappreciated signing. Maybe underrated to me

827
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 4: would be the linebacker Jack Gibbons. He comes over from

828
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 4: New England. He started the Super Bowl six three, two

829
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:40,240
Speaker 4: forty two, age twenty seven. Four years in the league,

830
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:44,280
Speaker 4: he's had like a half dozen double digit tackle games.

831
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 4: When he's given an opportunity, he's been really productive. But

832
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 4: the reason I like this Wolf is because you have

833
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 4: an experience proven inside backer. So knock on wood if

834
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,040
Speaker 4: something happens to Mac Wilson Senior. It's not like a

835
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 4: year ago where you know you have a rookie learning

836
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 4: on the job. You have a guy who can truly

837
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 4: coordinate the defense and can be really productive, especially in

838
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,239
Speaker 4: run fits. And I know you may not agree with this,

839
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 4: but what about on Keith urd Downs returned Mac Wilson

840
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 4: Senior to the edge because he's such a good pass rusher,

841
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,040
Speaker 4: and here comes Jack Gibbons to play the medal.

842
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know about that, Bally. It just saw

843
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 1: Mac Wilson Senior to be a good inside linebacker. Just

844
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 1: be a good mike backer. Will you please just play

845
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,719
Speaker 1: mike backer for us. We'll worry about, you know, the

846
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 1: possibility of moving you around. We'll let Nick Rowlis worry

847
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,359
Speaker 1: about that, but just let him be a good Mike

848
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,320
Speaker 1: backer for me. The guy that catches my eye. You

849
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,759
Speaker 1: already mentioned a Bali, but it's Roy Lopez. It is

850
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,439
Speaker 1: Roy Lopez. This guy, to me is a dog. He's

851
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: a baller. You know, He's one of my favorite guys.

852
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,879
Speaker 1: I hated to see him go. I hated to see

853
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 1: him leave the Arizona Cardinals last year, of course go

854
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 1: and play with the Lions. Roy Lopez to me is

855
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,919
Speaker 1: an absolute dog, and I'm glad he's back.

856
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:03,719
Speaker 4: We had a chance to sit down with him as well,

857
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:08,239
Speaker 4: and and Roy talked about just his love for the game,

858
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 4: the fact that when it comes to those high leverage

859
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 4: moments in a game, he lives for that that he said,

860
00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,360
Speaker 4: that's where you know I earn my paycheck is is

861
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,319
Speaker 4: when they're trying to come off the ball and get

862
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 4: that one dirty yard. And I got to take on

863
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 4: the double team, and then I flashed back to my

864
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 4: days as a state champion high school wrestler, and it's

865
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,600
Speaker 4: all about the hands and the hips and leverage. And

866
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:34,240
Speaker 4: it was just great to visit with Roy Lopez again.

867
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 4: You know him, he just oozes football, doesn't he.

868
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. And Polly, by the way, six too. He's really

869
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 1: about six one and a half In about three hundred

870
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: and thirty pounds. That's real nice inside. Yeah, that's real nice.

871
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 4: No doubt. And as we mentioned Andrew Billings, take a

872
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:51,880
Speaker 4: look at him when you get a chance. Sixty one
