Here's Craig Griolou, Paul Calvic, 13 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: and three time pro bowler Kyle Vandenbosch. 14 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 3: So, if you are not one of the two teams 15 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 3: still playing or even going back to Championship Sunday, among 16 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 3: the four teams still vine for the Lombardi Trophy, then 17 00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 3: your your work is elsewhere, whether that is in free 18 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 3: agency coming up in March or the draft coming up 19 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 3: in April. And for the purposes of this show, we're 20 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,320 Speaker 3: going to kind of focus a little bit more on 21 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 3: the draft because, as I joked with you guys earlier, Paul, Yeah, 22 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 3: we've got three weeks so excuse me, three months until 23 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 3: the Arizona Cardinals are on the clock. And that leaves 24 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 3: a lot of time to dissect and dissect and then 25 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 3: redissects and then maybe change opinions and maybe change them 26 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 3: a couple of different times to figure out right what 27 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 3: the Cardinal is going to do with the sixteenth overall pick. 28 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 3: And there are six current draft choices. 29 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 4: Well, let's just. 30 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 5: Remember America has an insatiable appetite for the NFL draft. 31 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 5: As such, mock drafts one point zero have already come out, 32 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 5: they're already a week old from Daniel Jeremiah and mel Kiper, 33 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 5: the two premier sources of everything draft speculations. So as such, 34 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 5: Cardinals have gone edge and they've gone interior line. That's 35 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 5: two of about seven position groups that will be speculated 36 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 5: upon over the next three months. So yes, let there 37 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 5: be wanting and abject speculation, and some will be more 38 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 5: responsible and more precise and you know, and on point 39 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 5: than others. But it just seems that, you know, it's 40 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 5: never ending, and for a reason, it's supply and demand. 41 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 5: There can't be enough supply to meet all the demand 42 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:22,399 Speaker 5: that's out there. 43 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 3: During your career, Kyle, did you pay much attention to 44 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 3: this time of year because these are players that might 45 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 3: be coming for your job. Now since you're retired, it's 46 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 3: your your viewpoint has changed. You're talking about it. You're 47 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 3: getting players ready in your role at bro FE to 48 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 3: get into that next level. But this is different mindset 49 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 3: from Kyv and Abash the player versus Kyv and Abash 50 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 3: retired player. 51 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, I absolutely paid attention. You know, you don't have 52 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 6: a lot of time to watch college football, you don't 53 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 6: have a lot of time to really break down players. 54 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 6: But at the same time, as the season goes on 55 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 6: and you're in that locker room, you're very aware of 56 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 6: your needs. You're very aware of your depth at certain positions. 57 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 6: You you look back at some of your games and 58 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 6: you're like, if we just had this one piece at 59 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 6: this position, uh, that could have helped us win games. 60 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:12,119 Speaker 6: And so you know, just depending again depending on where 61 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 6: you're picking and how high in the first and how 62 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 6: high in the second, you do start to look at 63 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 6: some players and and kind of hope that they can 64 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 6: be a part of your team, a part of your group, 65 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 6: and and like you said it was you know, sometimes 66 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 6: throughout my career players were drafted at my position and 67 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 6: that can at times be a difficult pill to swallow, 68 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 6: but you know, it's it's all about what helps this 69 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 6: team get moving in the right direction. And you know, 70 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 6: again you talked about and Pauly talked about how you know, 71 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 6: the season never ends for front office, and Jonathan Gannon 72 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 6: talked about that. He talked about that in the postgame 73 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 6: press conference like it. You know, while we as fans, 74 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 6: in two weeks, we're gonna start to lament the that 75 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 6: there's no longer football, there's no longer Sundays where we 76 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 6: get to sit down and and digest, you know, the 77 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 6: best game on the planet. You know, front office people, 78 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 6: GMS coaches, they're constantly evaluating and breaking things down. And 79 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 6: it's not as simple as some people make it as hey, 80 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 6: what's this guy's forty times? How many times can you 81 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 6: bench press two twenty five? You know, this front office 82 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 6: in particular, they really do their research and do their 83 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 6: homework and get to know the players and talk to 84 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 6: their coaches and find out what makes them tick. Because 85 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 6: we've talked about this over and over and over. You know, 86 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 6: as much as they draft the talent in this organization, 87 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 6: they're drafting the person and they want people that are 88 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 6: going to buy in and love football, and that's what 89 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 6: this roster is comprised of. And you can expect that 90 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 6: whichever editions are made, whether it be free agency, whether 91 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 6: it be in the draft, they're going to bring those 92 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 6: types of players into this building. Because the culture is 93 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 6: healthy with the Arizona Cardinals and they fully intend to 94 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 6: keep it that way. 95 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 5: Don't think competition isn't effective in the NFL to point, 96 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 5: And the best recent example to me was when the 97 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 5: Packers drafted Jordan Love and what happened the next two 98 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 5: years all Aaron Rodgers won the MVP. He went from 99 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 5: pedestrian play for Aaron Rodgers to MVP Aaron Rodgers in 100 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 5: twenty twenty, twenty twenty one. So sometimes you're bolstering up 101 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 5: position groups. Sometimes you're trying to motivate what you have. 102 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 5: Either way, you're trying to build every single position as 103 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 5: best you can. 104 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 3: And we can all look and see what the players 105 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 3: can do. But to your point, college's okay, what people, 106 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 3: what person are you bringing into that particular locker room? 107 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 3: And that's why this is a big week. You've got 108 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 3: the East West Shrian Ball coming up on Thursday, the 109 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 3: Senior Bowl on Saturday, and then of course in a 110 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 3: couple of weeks you've got the Combine in Indianapolis where 111 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 3: you really get more so those interviews. And then as 112 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 3: specifically as right now in the NFL network, you've got 113 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 3: Senior Ball practices that has become a television event now 114 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 3: as far as looking at those one on one matchups. 115 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 3: But as we talk about it, and we'd say it 116 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 3: every single year around this Tyle Kyle, it's it's a 117 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 3: job interview, and it's not just for one team, it's 118 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 3: for thirty two teams. And you hope that it is 119 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 3: maybe not maybe you stick with one team, but the 120 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 3: evaluation and those interviews could come in handy. Say you 121 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 3: don't make it with that first team and it's your 122 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 3: second or third stop. These front offices will go back 123 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 3: to the tape and there are evaluations here, whether that's 124 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 3: the East West Shrine Bowl or the Senior Bowl. 125 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 6: Absolutely every player is getting a grade. And they don't 126 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 6: just get a grade again on what you do on 127 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 6: the football field. They will grade everything. And you know 128 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 6: at these the Senior Bowl, East West they're looking to 129 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 6: look you in the eye. They're looking to sit down 130 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 6: with you. I mean, each of the teams has some 131 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 6: sort of suite where they will call players to throughout 132 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 6: the day and they want to talk to you. They 133 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 6: want to find out what makes you tick. They want 134 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 6: to find out what your goals are. And you know, 135 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 6: how you handle both these interviews and practices, it's going 136 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 6: to stick with you because the grade that they give 137 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 6: you is a grade they're gonna look back on when 138 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 6: you become a free agent after four years or five years, 139 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 6: or if you're getting into your second or third contract. 140 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 6: They they do their best job of figuring out who 141 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 6: you are, what makes you tick, and if you're going 142 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 6: to fit into their game plan or their future. So, 143 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 6: you know, for all of these players, it's it's kind 144 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 6: of a whirlwind. I know it was for me, and 145 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 6: it's it's you know, at times overwhelming, but it's just 146 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 6: all a part of the process, and it's it's vitally 147 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 6: important that you put your best foot forward. 148 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 3: Do we want to mention the year that you participated 149 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 3: in the Senior Bowl or just say that you were 150 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 3: a part of the Senior Bowl in this century? I 151 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 3: mean it's probably thousands, and we were okay with saying, well, 152 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 3: I just said it. I mean it's a two thousand 153 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 3: and one Senior Ball and you were among a handful 154 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 3: of big name players in that game. What do you 155 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 3: on that week worth of work? What do you remember 156 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 3: about that time in the Senior Bowl where your head coach. 157 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 6: Was Bill Kauer Yep, yep, a legend, and it was 158 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 6: it was awesome for me. Again, you know, at at 159 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 6: the Senior Bowl coming out and probably throughout most of 160 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 6: my career, I didn't feel like I belonged. And I 161 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 6: walk into my first D line meeting room and it's 162 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 6: Sean Rogers, Marcus Stroud, Chris Jenkins. I mean, just mammoths 163 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 6: of human beings that have you know, probably you know, 164 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 6: twenty combined Pro Bowls between them, and you know, just 165 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 6: talent all around the room. And it was it was 166 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 6: to me, it was like trying to prove that I 167 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 6: belonged with that group. But you know, again, it's it's 168 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 6: a whirlwind. You're on the practice field, you're in meeting rooms. 169 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 6: They try to throw a lot at you to see 170 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 6: how quickly you can digest some things. And then you know, 171 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 6: on top of that you you walk through the lobby, 172 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 6: it's coaches interviewing for positions with staffs. And you know, 173 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,319 Speaker 6: I remember seeing two coaches get into a fistfight in 174 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 6: the lobby and I have no idea what it was about. 175 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 6: I just cat kept my head down and kept kept 176 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 6: walking to my room. It's it's, it was. It was 177 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 6: an interesting and fun time. You know, I'm glad I 178 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 6: never have to do it again. 179 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 3: Fistfight. 180 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 5: Okay, you never You didn't go to the gossip hotline. 181 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 5: You didn't try and figure out what happened there. You know, 182 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 5: you never did get an answer. 183 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 6: Gossip hotline. 184 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: That was? 185 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 6: That was That was pre internet social media, wasn't. I 186 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 6: wasn't tweeting anything out after after good? 187 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 7: Uh? 188 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 5: Well, you know what if I just don't mention what 189 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,839 Speaker 5: year I went to college? If if if Kyle Vannerbosch 190 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 5: is you know, Craig, move along. What's the next topic. Well, 191 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 5: let's talk about what this week is for the Cardinals 192 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 5: because a year ago, you look at the East West 193 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:45,679 Speaker 5: Shrine Bowl and the Senior Bowl. Cardinals drafted nine players 194 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 5: of their twelve picks. Nine of them either participated in 195 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 5: the East West Game or the Senior game or that 196 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 5: week's worth of practices. Cardinals this year have a couple 197 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 5: of different coaches a part of these games. Connor Singer 198 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 5: the assistantquarterbacks coach. He's at the East West Shrine bol 199 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 5: Ronald Booker defensive quality control. Also at the East West 200 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 5: Game Senior Ball. You've got the Bill Bidwell Fellowship coach 201 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 5: Blaine Goche who's working with the quarterbacks of the American team. 202 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 5: That's Jackson dart Seth Hennigan, Riley Leonard, Jalen Milroe. So again, 203 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 5: Cardinals had a number of coaches a year ago, Paul Drew, Terrell, 204 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 5: Spencer Whipple, Izzy Outrey Dens and Chris Cook. And now 205 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,679 Speaker 5: all of a sudden you've got maybe fewer numbers, but 206 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 5: still it's that intel that a book can come back 207 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 5: and say, oh, yeah, this particular player, I liked him. 208 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 5: How they interacted more than anything, as far as they're 209 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 5: a team first versus they were all about themselves trying 210 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 5: to get noticed by a coach. 211 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 6: Yeah. 212 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 5: For example, two years ago with Michael Wilson, right there 213 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 5: was he had been so injured so often at Stanford, 214 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 5: but that All Star Game week was critical for Michael Wilson, 215 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 5: not only what he showed on the field, but his 216 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 5: aptitude in the classroom, the work ethic, just the way 217 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 5: in which he interacted with other players and coaches. So 218 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 5: they felt like they had a good handle and they 219 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 5: felt comfortable about a Round three selection with a Michael Wilson, 220 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 5: a key Trell Clark who was coming off a knee 221 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 5: injury late in his college career. Those are the sort 222 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 5: of guys who proved themselves at the All Star Games, 223 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 5: and the coaches got to know those guys. The good news, 224 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 5: especially at the Senior Bowl, is the word is it's 225 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 5: very deep in defensive linemen this year. There are a 226 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 5: number of SEC schools, so we'll put two and three 227 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 5: players a piece into the Senior Bowl. And so that's 228 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 5: good news if the Cardinals are looking to build from 229 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 5: the inside out and they're going to fortify maybe the 230 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 5: interior offensive line, the interior defensive line. In terms of edge, 231 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 5: there's a lot of athleticism. Isn't necessarily the prototypical size 232 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 5: that you've seen a lot of the edge rushers over 233 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 5: the years. But when you've got a guy like Nolan 234 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 5: Smith and what he's done for the Eagles in the playoffs, 235 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 5: and you realize if you can get that sort of 236 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 5: athleticism off the edge, that guy can really present that 237 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 5: sort of headache. And from what we've seen early, very 238 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 5: early in the process, those sort of players are there. 239 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 3: This year you mentioned Daniel Jeremiah. His first mock draft 240 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 3: had linebacker Jalen Walker out of Georgia projected to go 241 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 3: sixteen undersized linebackers six two two forty five, but again 242 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 3: an effective pass rusher. So you're looking for players on 243 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 3: the offensive line, defensive line, on the outside. Again, we 244 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 3: are way early in this process. The draft is not 245 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 3: happening until April, but this is when you begin that 246 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 3: and also this is also the process when you might 247 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 3: have to fill spots on your coaching staff. Congratulations to 248 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 3: linebackers coach Sam Sifkiz named defensive coordinator at Virginia Tech. 249 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 3: The first official opening now and the first official move 250 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 3: and a change for Jonathan Gannon in his two years 251 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,079 Speaker 3: as head coach. Now, all of a sudden, now you're 252 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 3: JG Now only you're scouting players, but now trying to 253 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 3: figure out your coaching staff. 254 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 5: And it's at the first of another change in that room. 255 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 5: What's the deal with kai Zer White? There's a question, 256 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 5: right the quarter back of your defense, w uh you know. 257 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 5: We'll see he's gonna have himself an offseason and a 258 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 5: business decision to make. 259 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 3: Also this week the Pro Bowl sort of a game. 260 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 3: We'll talk about that next, and what means for the 261 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 3: two Cardinals players who are headed might already be in Orlando. 262 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 3: That's next here on the Arizona Cardinals Radio network, Jet Sweet. 263 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 2: Mere Side McBride stiff arming touchdown Fray McBride on the handoff. 264 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 6: McBride is so good running the football. 265 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 2: Cardinals rush by and Traval Smith steps up. Sack by 266 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 2: Fooda Baker caught by McBride, wrapped up, broken tackle though, 267 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 2: and then he hurdles a defender at the forty.

Drey McBride, who finds paydirt, came off. 272 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 8: The edge cleave and Aaron Rodgers got. 273 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 2: His backwax between four jets.

And amongst the 287 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 3: three of us, Paul, there are three Pro Bowl selections 288 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 3: amongst the three of us here. Yeah, yeah, I've covered three, 289 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 3: but I've covered one. Okay, does that count? Yeah, KVB. 290 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 5: So look real quick, speaking of top three all around 291 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 5: athletes and the Cardinals roster right now, if you were 292 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 5: to go in and you had to pick your team 293 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 5: right for all these games, dodgeball and all these variety 294 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 5: again more and all that kind of stuff I mean, 295 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 5: at first glance, I'm like, you know what, Buddha and 296 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 5: Trey McBride would probably be the top two picks, and 297 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 5: I remembered, wait a minute, Kyler Murray was the tenth 298 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 5: pick overall in in Major League Baseball draft, so he 299 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 5: has himself some hand eye coordination as well, So that 300 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 5: would probably be my top three. And just outside looking 301 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 5: in looking at the Cardinals roster real quick, I'd put 302 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 5: Max Melton in, Sean Murphy bunting. All around athletes that 303 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 5: could quickly adapt to any competition, you know, athletic or otherwise. Boom, 304 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 5: I'd say those would be my top five right there? 305 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 5: Did I miss anyone on this roster? 306 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 6: And I think you hit it. But I will also 307 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 6: say the top three you're talking about, Kyler, Buddha, and 308 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 6: Trey McBride probably the three most competitive players on this roster. 309 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 6: I mean, I mean, to me, you look at Trey mcbridy, 310 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 6: look at Buddha Baker, They're just football players. They're the 311 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 6: guys you want in your locker room, the guys you 312 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 6: want to build your team around. The guys that show 313 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 6: up regardless of the Sunday, regardless of the day of 314 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 6: the week, they're gonna they're the true competitors. And to me, 315 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 6: you know, those are the people you hate to play against, 316 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 6: whether it be in you know, connect for or cornhole 317 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 6: or anything, because these guys hate to lose in they're 318 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:26,239 Speaker 6: ultra competitive. 319 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 3: That's right. 320 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 5: Don't don't play Kyler and Chess. Don't find out the 321 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 5: hard way, Larry Fitzgerald, when you take on Kyler and Chess, 322 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 5: don't do that. 323 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 3: It's something that again goes back to what we were 324 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 3: talking about as far as evaluating the person versus the player, 325 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 3: because I think they want talking about the Cardinals front office, 326 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 3: yes they want talented players, but they want that self 327 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 3: motivated player as well, who is not gonna stand losing 328 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 3: at anything, even out on that practice field or to 329 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 3: your point, Paul, in the locker room at whatever game 330 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 3: might be played that particular day. But for Budda Baker, 331 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 3: this has become a yearly trek. For him, it's no 332 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 3: longer in Hawaii. 333 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 6: For KBB. 334 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 3: You went three times to Hawaii. Correct. 335 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 6: I was the first one, not at Hawaii. It was 336 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 6: in Fort Lauderdale, my last one. Yeah, So to Hawaii. 337 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 6: Fort Loaderdale's all right. 338 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 3: Now, now you go to Orlando, you get to go 339 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 3: to Disney World, Hawaii, Disney World. 340 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 6: That's all right, it's not quite the same. 341 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,679 Speaker 3: Again, it's it's good for the players, especially for a 342 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 3: Buddha Baker who a year ago Paul probably did not 343 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 3: have his best season statistically, even though we all knew, 344 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 3: and he was still selected to the Pro Bowl, but 345 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,640 Speaker 3: didn't have the splash plays, didn't have the highlight plays. 346 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 3: But so we keep talking about something was different with 347 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,199 Speaker 3: him this year, within this defense, year two, around the 348 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 3: football a little bit more, certainly closer to the line 349 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,959 Speaker 3: of scrimmage to make those plays to where now it 350 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,640 Speaker 3: wasn't just us that saw the numbers, but everyone else. 351 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 5: We could probably do a whole show on how they 352 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 5: unlocked Buddha Baker for a career year in twenty twenty four. 353 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 5: But you're right, twenty twenty three offenses are better able 354 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 5: to go away from Buddha Baker minimize his impact on 355 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 5: the game. So I think that was a huge adjustment 356 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 5: by Nick Ross and Jonathan Gannon in the off season. Okay, 357 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 5: how can we make him a factor on almost every 358 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 5: single play? How can we unlock Buddha Baker? And really 359 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 5: they allowed him to utilize his instincts and his football 360 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 5: IQ and his wisdom, and so if he decided to 361 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 5: shoot his gun and jet into the backfield and you 362 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 5: know Russia gap or he then everyone behind him was 363 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 5: on alert to cover his deep third responsibility. And so 364 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 5: the Cardinals defense adjusted, and the longer the season went along, 365 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 5: we got a little more intel and a little more 366 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 5: info on exactly what it was. They moved him inside 367 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 5: a little bit more into what they call the hooks, 368 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 5: and they allowed him to be able to cover the 369 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 5: entire field. You can no longer work quarterbacks able to say, okay, 370 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 5: number three is on the right side, we're going left. 371 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 5: And so it was things like that where he ends 372 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 5: up with a career high and tackles and tackles for loss. 373 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 5: There is a rhyme and a reason to it, and 374 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 5: it was how they used him in the scheme. To 375 00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 5: a large degree. 376 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 3: You could make the argument, Kyle, that Buddha is the 377 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 3: one defensive player that when the quarterback breaks the huddle, 378 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 3: they're looking, all right, where is number three? 379 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 6: Is he deep? 380 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 3: Is he closer to the line of scrimmage. Typically it's 381 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 3: someone that is closer to the line of scrimmage, typically 382 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 3: an edge rusher. But for the Cardinals right now until 383 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 3: they figure out what they're doing defensively, it's all right, 384 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 3: where's three because you don't know where he might be 385 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 3: any particular play. 386 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't think there's any question. And I think again, 387 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,199 Speaker 6: you've got to look at how is the how are 388 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 6: Pro bowlers selected? You know, we we my defensive line coach, 389 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 6: we used to take an entire meeting session because it 390 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 6: was vitally important when we sat down as players to 391 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 6: vote for offensive linemen. At the time, it was when 392 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 6: I was in the AFC, and he he made it 393 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 6: dead serious and there was some arguments and and let's 394 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 6: be honest, like we as the Arizona Cardinals this year 395 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,360 Speaker 6: and hopefully next year will be differ at the folloing 396 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 6: year will be different. We didn't have a lot of 397 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 6: primetime games. We didn't have a lot of games that 398 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:01,479 Speaker 6: were shown nationally and not necessarily the household names, you know, 399 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 6: And so we didn't vote for the guys that were 400 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 6: on Campbell's soup commercials or guys that were selling shoes, 401 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 6: or guys that were on TV all the time. We 402 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 6: knew who the players were, We knew who the best 403 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 6: offensive linemen were. We knew who the problems were, and 404 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 6: when this Pro Bowl voting process starts, fan vote is 405 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 6: vitally important, but typically that's going to go to whoever 406 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 6: won the Super Bowl last year. It's going to go 407 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 6: to whoever's on commercials, whoever has the most exposure, whoever's 408 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 6: active on social media. You know, they're the fan favorites. 409 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 6: But you know, two thirds of the vote comes from players, 410 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 6: and then the other third comes from coaches, and they 411 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 6: know who the dudes are. They know who who is 412 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 6: the guy that we have to account for on every snap? 413 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 6: Who is the guy that's the hardest to game plan against. 414 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 6: Who is the guy that we respect the most and 415 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 6: we fear the most. And you know, again, you know, 416 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 6: I think that these are two tremendous representations, and I 417 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,879 Speaker 6: think it says a lot about them because they're probably 418 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 6: not killing it on the fan vote because they are 419 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 6: they aren't necessarily the household names. I think they're becoming 420 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 6: the household names. But until we get three Monday night games, 421 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 6: we get a you know, a Thursday night game and 422 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,919 Speaker 6: Sunday night games, and people see these players over and 423 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 6: over and it kind of becomes more of a household 424 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 6: name and more of a common face. They're gonna have 425 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 6: to rely on the respect of you know, opponents and 426 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 6: opposing coaching staffs, and and again for Buddha Baker to 427 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 6: be there seven times, it just shows the respect that 428 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 6: he has in the league. And as a player, believe me, 429 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 6: you want the respect of the fans, but nothing means 430 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 6: more than when your opponents fear you and respect you. 431 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 6: And that's exactly what it is for Buddha Baker. 432 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no question Buddha has the respects of his peers, 433 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 3: his teammates, and even those young players who are just 434 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 3: getting into the league. Let's flash back in season, Big 435 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 3: Red Rage Darius Robinson. Oh yeah, he's well aware of 436 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 3: what Buddha Baker is to the Arizona Cardinals. 437 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 8: Just the motor he plays that then the instinct to 438 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 8: be where the ball is at and then to actually 439 00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:59,959 Speaker 8: get people on the ground. 440 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: You know. 441 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 8: I literally just try to follow him everything he does 442 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 8: because he is the standard of an elite football player, 443 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 8: standard of our organization. So if that's like what I 444 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 8: want to envision myself, and hopefully someone talks like me 445 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 8: like one day, like I have to find a way 446 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 8: to be like Buddha. 447 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 3: So if Buddha is the standard, then I would argue 448 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 3: Paul then that Trey McBride is approaching that level amongst 449 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 3: the tight ends only year three, first full season though 450 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 3: as a starter, he had already earning the respect and 451 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 3: admiration of his fellow tight ends, and then of course 452 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:34,360 Speaker 3: his first Pro Bowl nine. 453 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, what can't Dray McBride do as a tight end. 454 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 5: He is a complete tight end. He's a three down player. 455 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,239 Speaker 5: He's out there, doesn't matter what the situation is, what 456 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 5: the personnel group is. That's exactly what they wanted in 457 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,439 Speaker 5: a tight end. That's exactly what he has delivered. And 458 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 5: he is a guy that you can count on in 459 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 5: big moments as well, and those got to have at 460 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 5: third and fourth downs and those throws downfield. He just 461 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 5: has the ability to, you know, really being sync with 462 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 5: Kyler Murray. The percentage right, the target to catch percentage 463 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 5: was off the hook this year. The efficiency and if 464 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 5: he didn't fail to make one catch, oh my goodness. 465 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 5: He was so hard on himself on the sideline to 466 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 5: Kyle's point earlier, just how competitive he is. And that's 467 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 5: something that definitely raises the standard on the team. A 468 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:20,439 Speaker 5: guy's feet off that. 469 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, Trey McBride was very good. Can he be even better? 470 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 3: A question that was posed to Kyler Murray recently. 471 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, he can be. 472 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 7: Which is you know, it's saying a lot, you know, 473 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 7: because he's a beeft, he's a beef I'll say I'll 474 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 7: say it every time. I think he's the best in 475 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 7: the league, and he'll only continue to get better as 476 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 7: we get better together. 477 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,199 Speaker 3: We know that he can catch the ball, make the 478 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 3: contested catches, he can run after the catch, has improved 479 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 3: his blocking, especially in the run game. To Paul's point, 480 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 3: there's not much that Trey can't do. It's just hoing 481 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 3: it in on some of the details and then making 482 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 3: sure you are That's the separation between great to a lead, 483 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 3: as far as doing it on a consistent basis weekend 484 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 3: and week got and making sure that, yeah, if you're 485 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 3: not catching it, then making sure that the defender doesn't 486 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 3: have a chance with the ball either. 487 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 6: Yeah. And look, it's hard to pinpoint. You know, there's 488 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 6: there's no weakness in his game. I mean, to your point, 489 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 6: I think he's gotten to be a much better blocker. 490 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 6: He's very good at the point of a tech. He 491 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 6: runs great routes, he somehow finds separation when he is, 492 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 6: you know, an emphasis for defensive coordinators, you know. And 493 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 6: I think the step that he took this year from 494 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 6: last year is what he does with the ball in 495 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 6: his hands in open space, because I felt like early 496 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 6: in his career he's so physical that he's catching the 497 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 6: ball trying to run people over. This year, you know, 498 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 6: without even thinking about it, I think he probably what 499 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 6: did he have two or three hurdles, which is a 500 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 6: tremendously athletic thing for tight ends to do. You typically 501 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 6: see maybe running backs or receivers do that. But and 502 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 6: he even told himself he wasn't gonna do it anymore. 503 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 6: But it's just his instincts and they just take over. 504 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 6: And you know, I think you'll probably see more of 505 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 6: that down the road, trying to get him the ball 506 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 6: in space and just let his athleticism and his sheer 507 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 6: will take over and let him do special things with 508 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 6: the ball in his hands. 509 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 3: And that last hurdle earned him an Angry Bird Award 510 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 3: from Kyle Brann a Good Morning Football. So even if 511 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 3: you want to stop hurdling Paul, it's gonna be hard, 512 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 3: because again, won it's a natural instinct and then when 513 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 3: you're successful at it, you're gonna keep doing it. 514 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,199 Speaker 5: So let's see if you're scoring at home. I had 515 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 5: three hurdles over defenders and then a final hurdle through 516 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 5: a defender. So that's that's what we had on that one. 517 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,879 Speaker 5: And you know what, he also talks a game. I mean, 518 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 5: he's out there, he's so competitive, and we've had him 519 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 5: on the big read Rate said, yes, sometimes I'm not 520 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 5: even aware of how much I'm talking. That's how much 521 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 5: he's competing. That's how much he's in the zone. Like 522 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 5: I'm down on the sideline trying to stay out of 523 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 5: everyone's way, and he'll come down. He's he's one of 524 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 5: those guys who's got a different look in his eye 525 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 5: on game day. Paris Johnson Junior A Trey McBride, you know, 526 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 5: boot to a certain degree, it's just it's remarkable what 527 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 5: happens to Trey McBride on game day. And to Kyle's 528 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 5: point about the defensive emphasis and getting the gravitational pull, 529 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 5: you talk to coaches, you talk to players, and there's 530 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 5: usually three different guys who have their eyes on Trey 531 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 5: McBride at three different levels of the defense. That's how 532 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 5: much attention he's getting these days. 533 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 3: There is Trey McBride the player, and then there is 534 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 3: Trey McBride the person. Very humble as we all heard 535 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 3: when he was asked about being named to his first 536 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 3: Pro Bowl. 537 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 7: Something you dream about as a little kid. You know, 538 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 7: obviously you want to make it to the pros and 539 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 7: then you want to be the best. This is just 540 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 7: one step, you know, into that right direction. This is 541 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 7: a huge honor for me. Proud just to bring this 542 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 7: back home where I'm from. Just a huge honor for 543 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 7: not only me, my community, my family, and obviously this 544 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 7: organization you know hasn't been done by a tight end 545 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 7: in a very long time, so this is just a 546 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 7: huge honor for not only me, but this organization and everybody. 547 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 3: The one thing you really like about Trey is the 548 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 3: fact that he is never satisfied because he is going 549 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:55,880 Speaker 3: to be the first one in the last one to leave. 550 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 3: As far as working on his game, even if he 551 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 3: becomes a renewal Pro bowler or an All Pro. Just 552 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 3: missed second team honors in that category as far as 553 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 3: an All Pro this year, but he's always working looking 554 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 3: to get better, seeking advice on how to improve his game, right. 555 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 6: You know, one of the biggest things that can happen 556 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,439 Speaker 6: to athletes as they get to this point in their careers, 557 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 6: there's complacency. They think they've arrived. They think, Hey, I 558 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 6: am one of the best. I don't have to show 559 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,479 Speaker 6: up early anymore. I don't have to watch this extra film. 560 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 6: That is not the way Trey McBride is wired. Like 561 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 6: he is constantly working on his game. He's constantly trying 562 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 6: to get faster, bigger, stronger, He's trying to run better routes. 563 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 6: He's studying his own game film, and you just get 564 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 6: the feeling like, you know, when that last nap happened 565 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 6: at the end of the season, he was probably the 566 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,399 Speaker 6: first guy back in the building. You know, he was 567 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 6: back here figuring out what can I do, what can 568 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 6: I learn from how can I improve myself to help 569 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 6: this team more and to you know, make my play 570 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,919 Speaker 6: better on the football field and be more impactful. You know, 571 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 6: you don't get the feeling that even though he had 572 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 6: crazy numbers and did things that tight ends in this 573 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 6: franchise have never done before, he doesn't feel good about 574 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,199 Speaker 6: it and he wants to continue to get better. And 575 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 6: it's it's a scary thought for you know, opponents in 576 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 6: the NFC West. 577 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 5: And oh, by the way, he was the Cardinals Walter 578 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 5: Payton Man of the Year ward nominee for everything he did, 579 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 5: including going to poll him last year part of that 580 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 5: USO to or to support military members. So once again, 581 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 5: what is he not accomplishing only three years in the league, 582 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 5: and this is after a slow start as a rookie. 583 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 5: I think you can draw some parallels to Marvin Harrison junior. 584 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 5: You know, you look at that rookie year, pretty pretty good, 585 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 5: but there is still plenty of upside and Trey McBride 586 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 5: just proved that. 587 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 3: And what is it going to mean for this offense 588 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 3: going into twenty twenty five as far as all right, 589 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 3: we know it's a run first, but you have your 590 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 3: number one pass catcher as a tight end. 591 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 6: How does that. 592 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 3: Change things or how do you do you make it 593 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 3: even better offensively going into next season? Of course, the 594 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 3: goal is to be plane. On Super Bowl Sunday, we 595 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 3: will talk about the two teams that remain. NFC Championship, 596 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 3: AFC Championship, will take a look back at Championship Sunday 597 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 3: next here on the Arizona Cardinals Radio. 598 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 9: Networking, toss it to the left side, pork police, got 599 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 9: a land to the fifty to the forty five s 600 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 9: can look for the. 601 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 10: Forty partly stiff gone six accent side twenty fifteen to 602 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 10: ten touchdown, Say what Park? 603 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 8: Wait? 604 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 11: Yes, incredible Zeros on the clar the flares fly skyward 605 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 11: at the Eagles not just beat but annihilate the. 606 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 2: Washington Commanders fifty five. 607 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 3: To twenty three. 608 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 10: What a day? 609 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 3: Want a win? What a crowd, what a team? 610 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 8: What a season? 611 00:29:55,880 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 3: But it's not over yet. Second Super Bowl appearance in 612 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 3: three seasons, fifth in franchise history. Congratulations to the Philadelphia 613 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 3: Eagles beating up on the Commanders fifty five to twenty three. 614 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 3: Iron Eagle Westwood one with the sixty yard touchdown run 615 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 3: of Saquon Barkley. Merrill Reese on the Eagles Radio Network 616 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 3: with the final call from Championship Sunday, as we say, 617 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 3: welcome back, it is the Cardinals Red Sea Report. Here 618 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 3: we do it each and every Tuesday. Craig Reyelu, Paul Calvici, 619 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 3: and Kyle Vanenbosch looking back at Championship Sunday and the 620 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 3: NFC game in particular, and this is where I think, 621 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 3: this is where I got a little bit worried for 622 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 3: the Commanders as much as we wanted, or at least 623 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 3: I wanted and had hope for Jaydon Daniels and Cliff 624 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 3: Kingsbury based off the ties here to Arizona. But it 625 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 3: was an impressive opening drive. Eighteen plays, twice converted on 626 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,959 Speaker 3: third down, there were some fourth down conversions, took seven minutes, 627 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 3: they got three points. Philly's first drive, one play, Saquon 628 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 3: takes to the house. It's seven to three Eagles and 629 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 3: at that point you're like, okay, well, hey, they got 630 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 3: the explosive plays and it became a struggle for the 631 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 3: Commanders ever since. 632 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 5: So that's is Saquon Barkley's seventh rushing touchdown sixty or 633 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 5: more yards this year. That's some sort of all time 634 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 5: record right up there with some ridiculous names like Jim 635 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 5: Brown and Company. And the more you watch Saquon Barkley, 636 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 5: I just you can hear America asking in the ether, 637 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 5: why is Joe Shane stole the Giants GM right, especially 638 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 5: after all the video came out from Hard Knocks and 639 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 5: everything else. It is, and he turns twenty eight on 640 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 5: Super Bowl Sunday, Saquon Barkley in his prime and if 641 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 5: you had to do the MVP voting all over again 642 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 5: right now? 643 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 3: Yeah? 644 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 5: Maybe, just maybe. So it's an interesting case study. And 645 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 5: I'm gonna get into this in Cardinals Underground. I'm gonna 646 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 5: educate Darren Urban and Danny Serek a little bit later. Okay, 647 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 5: because to me, this is the case study for the league. 648 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 5: There's only one Patrick Mahomes, right, He's the innovator, like 649 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 5: he's the new technology. How are you gonna take down 650 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 5: Patrick Mahomes without a Patrick Mahomes? Well? Can you do 651 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 5: it with the run game? And Kyle we were talking 652 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 5: about that just a few moments ago. Okay, is this 653 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 5: because if this is the blueprint that I think, you 654 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 5: know what the Cardinals can replicate that maybe that's the 655 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 5: we know what they've done so far in two years 656 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 5: under Jonathan Ganning Kramitt vertical? Do you double down on that? 657 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 5: Because is that your path to a title? 658 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 6: Hey? It can be. I mean I certainly I'll take 659 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 6: the Eagles in the Super Bowl. I love what they're doing. 660 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 6: I mean, seven rushing touchdowns in a game. They did 661 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 6: whatever they wanted to. Now saying that we talked about 662 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 6: this off the air, but no player that won the 663 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 6: rushing title has been a part of a Super Bowl 664 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 6: championship since nineteen ninety eight, and it was Terrell Davis 665 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 6: with the Denver Broncos, and I don't know why that is. 666 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 6: And then another stat I came across is no, I 667 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 6: don't know how this is defined, but no run heavy 668 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 6: offense has won a Super Bowl in the last ten years. 669 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 6: So it'll be interesting. But I mean that looked tough 670 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 6: to stay. I mean it was they at times did 671 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 6: whatever they wanted to with Saquon Barkley, with Herts, with Shipley, 672 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 6: I mean, they're running game with that offensive line and 673 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 6: some of the designs. You know it. It was talked 674 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 6: about a little bit off after the game just about 675 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 6: how Jalen Hurts checked to that run, but it was 676 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 6: all phony. I mean, they lined up under center, they 677 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 6: knew that the defense was gonna put eight guys in 678 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,719 Speaker 6: the box when they were under center, and then you know, 679 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 6: they they did a toss play and basically they had 680 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 6: too many guys close to the line of scrimmage and 681 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,959 Speaker 6: guys couldn't scrape over the top and guys were tripping 682 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 6: all over each other and then when he got in 683 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 6: the open field, he did what he does and he 684 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 6: scored that touchdown. And I tell you what, he is 685 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 6: fun to watch. I mean, sometimes teams that are run heavy, 686 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 6: it can games can kind of just drag on. But 687 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 6: when he has the ball in his hands, he does 688 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 6: electric things. 689 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 3: That was his first touch of the game. Talking about 690 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 3: Saquon Barkley, his second touch, also a touchdown run. Barkley 691 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 3: finished with one hundred and eighteen yards on the ground. 692 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 3: But to me, it's also not only the run ability, 693 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 3: but the fact that and it's something that Jonathan Gannon 694 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 3: talks about all the time value of the ball. There 695 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 3: are four takeaways in that game, three fumbles, one interception. 696 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 3: Twenty eight points off those four takeaways, and you look 697 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 3: at the final score and like, okay, that tilted the 698 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 3: balance in Philly's favor. 699 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, gave him a short field multiple times. And again 700 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 6: we're seeing this. We saw it throughout the season, but 701 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,280 Speaker 6: really seeing it show up in the playoffs, the peanut 702 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 6: punch coming in and punching the ball loose and forcing fumbles. 703 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 6: And you know, a player that I was pretty unfamiliar 704 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 6: with is Zach Bond, who's up for Defensive Player of 705 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,919 Speaker 6: the Year. You know, he punched one out, he recovered one, 706 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 6: he seemed to be all over the place, led the 707 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 6: team in tackles. But those are game changing plays. And 708 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 6: I know you and Zach talked about the Cardinals and 709 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 6: how do they get more turnovers? You talked about that 710 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,839 Speaker 6: and covered two last week. I think that's a key 711 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 6: emphasis because so many times it's that one play that 712 00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 6: you get that crucial turnover. You give your offense, you know, 713 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 6: a short field, you give your team momentum. Those swing 714 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 6: games more often than not. 715 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,439 Speaker 3: Well, what was a stat from the divisional round, Paul? 716 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 3: I believe it was ten takeaways no turnovers from the 717 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 3: teams that won the game. So again I have that 718 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 3: voice in the back of my head, and it's Jay 719 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 3: Chees's voice talking a band. Once again, you gotta take 720 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 3: the ball away and you got to protect the ball. 721 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 3: And how many times do the Cardinals do that? Well, 722 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 3: they won those games, and when they didn't protect the football, 723 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,359 Speaker 3: they lost those games. So again, we can talk about 724 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 3: sakuon Barklay, we can talk about all these big plays, 725 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 3: but at the defense is giving you short fields and 726 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 3: it becomes much easier and then all of a sudden, 727 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 3: it's fifty five points. That's the most scored in a 728 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 3: championship game in history. But it's a lot because well, 729 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 3: there were four turnovers and that gave the Eagles plenty 730 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 3: of opportunities to keep extending their lead. 731 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 5: And once again, you've built a team that has a 732 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 5: dominant offensive line. Every member of the Eagles starting offensive 733 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,319 Speaker 5: line got votes for the All Pro team. Then you 734 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 5: have a dominant defense and what they're doing. They are 735 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 5: number one in overall defense and the ability to take 736 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 5: the ball away. So once again, you have built up 737 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 5: this entire team around Jalen hurt So, by the way, 738 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,760 Speaker 5: had three rushing touchdowns. Who else has a quarterback capable 739 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 5: of three rushing touchdowns in a game? The Arizona Cardinals. 740 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 5: So if you can build up that defense, you can 741 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 5: have a premier run game. You can have a dual 742 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 5: threat quarterback to keep a defense hon us, but not 743 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 5: turn the ball over as well like Kyler did when 744 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 5: the Cardinals were six and four at the by. Once again, 745 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 5: there's a lot there, we know. Look at where the 746 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,439 Speaker 5: Cardinals are headed. You can see this Philadelphia team. Now 747 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 5: to Kyle's point, they've really nailed a lot of the 748 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,280 Speaker 5: free agent acquisitions. They've been very effective in the draft 749 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 5: building that secondary, most recently Quinyan Mitchell and Cooper dejen 750 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 5: I mean, you got guys who have been immediate contributors 751 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,760 Speaker 5: and have really been elite in so many different ways. 752 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,879 Speaker 5: I mean, McLaurin didn't do much of anything in that game, 753 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 5: and Quinyan Mitchell had a heck of an effort. So 754 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 5: once again, they've checked a lot of boxes. And you know, 755 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 5: if it wasn't for Kansas City and all the fatigue there, 756 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 5: we'd be saying that about the Eagles going to their 757 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 5: second Super Bowl in the last three years. 758 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 3: And how many times did that Eagles defense get home 759 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 3: or at least speed up Jayden Daniels And it was 760 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 3: just four, and the number of times because I was 761 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:17,279 Speaker 3: paying more attention to that too as well as right, 762 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 3: how many times are the Eagles blitz I don't know 763 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 3: if they blitzed much, if at all, but it was 764 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:27,240 Speaker 3: four guys could have been different for particular play, but again, 765 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 3: being able to take four out of coverage, that leaves 766 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 3: seven all of a sudden, because more difficult if you're 767 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 3: a quarterback to find the open receiver. 768 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,399 Speaker 6: Yeah, Pauly talked about, you know, all of the good 769 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 6: moves by Howie Roseman and the personnel they brought in, 770 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,720 Speaker 6: and he does. He hits home runs in the draft, 771 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 6: you know, getting aj Brown, all of these moves. But 772 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,240 Speaker 6: I think the addition of Vic Fangio is the biggest 773 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 6: improvement with this Eagles team. This defense is really formidable. 774 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 6: They got playmakers all over the field, particularly the front. 775 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 6: You know, they do cause a lot of problems. 776 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 3: Now you look ahead to Super Bowl Sunday and our 777 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 3: chance to ask you will talk about the Chiefs and 778 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 3: what they did coming up. But Eagles Chiefs rematch from 779 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 3: when it was at State Farm Stadium a couple of 780 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 3: years ago. Chiefs win that game on a field goal. 781 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 3: You think it's the reverse coming up in a couple 782 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 3: of weeks. 783 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 6: It's tough. This is Patrick Mahomes is special, not because 784 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 6: the numbers he puts up, because he evolves his game. 785 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 6: From week five on he had the second most attempts 786 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 6: in the league, yet he is thirty third and in 787 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 6: long passes for touchdowns, like their game, it's turned into 788 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 6: an rpo game. He gets rid of the ball quickly 789 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 6: and so how do you neutralize a good pass rush. 790 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 6: How do you take care of a front that causes problems, 791 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 6: that gets quick pressure, that's in the backfield constantly. It's 792 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 6: that quick passing game. And that's exactly what you saw 793 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 6: from the Chiefs this past weekend. And you can expect that. 794 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:52,880 Speaker 6: You know, the ball is gonna be out of his 795 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 6: hands quick, he's not gonna put it in harms way, 796 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 6: and he's gonna have quick answers when they do decide 797 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 6: to blitz. 798 00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 3: When the Buccaneers beat the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, 799 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 3: their defense dramatically affected Patrick Mahomes and he was at 800 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 3: a loss. Now that was a few years ago. He's 801 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:12,760 Speaker 3: much smarter, He's seen a lot more. But that Eagles defense, 802 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,440 Speaker 3: I think, is going to give Mahomes and that Chiefs 803 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 3: offense a lot of trouble. 804 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 5: There's just something about the fact that Mahomes did not 805 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:20,239 Speaker 5: go to the Pro Bowl this year, did not going 806 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,400 Speaker 5: to votes for the All Pro Team. It wasn't in 807 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 5: the MVP conversation, and we talked about that going into 808 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 5: the postseason. Lookout and he looks as motivated as ever 809 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 5: and for him to go out there and just do 810 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 5: enough to beat you whatever you throw at him. He 811 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,319 Speaker 5: seemingly has an answer for everything to do it with 812 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,840 Speaker 5: a whole different variety of receivers over the last two years. 813 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,240 Speaker 5: He doesn't have a true legit wide receiver. One didn't 814 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,319 Speaker 5: have it last year and they hoisted the Lombardi doesn't 815 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 5: have it this year. Yet he's able to figure it out. 816 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:54,320 Speaker 5: And between Andy Reid and in that Kansas City defense 817 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,319 Speaker 5: as well, I mean, Chris Jones, think about it. What 818 00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:00,360 Speaker 5: do these two teams have game wrecking interior defense lineman 819 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 5: Chris Jones, Jalen Carter, And to me, it's just it's 820 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 5: sort of the pivot point, the epics center of a 821 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 5: really elite defense and everything falls in behind that, and 822 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 5: bolt teams feature that aspect of a defense. 823 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 3: Again, bring it closer to home. What's missing from the 824 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,759 Speaker 3: Cardinals defense? That interior pressure up the middle. Do you 825 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 3: have that run stuffer? And that's something that the Cardinals 826 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 3: will look for, whether that's in free agency, the draft, 827 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 3: or maybe a combination of both. So, yes, Eagles Chiefs 828 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 3: is the Super Bowl matchup. How did the Chiefs arrive 829 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:34,879 Speaker 3: once again? Well, they do what they always do. They 830 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 3: find a way, not always pretty, but they always manage 831 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 3: to score at least one more point than their opponent, 832 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 3: and they have made Super Bowl Sunday an annual trip 833 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 3: at least now for three straight seasons. We'll talk about 834 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 3: the AFC Championship Game as we continue. Right here. It's 835 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 3: the Cardinals Red Sea Report on the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network. 836 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 4: And so here is Mahomes lining up with a third 837 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 4: down and nine just outside the buffalo thirty five trips 838 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,479 Speaker 4: on the far side, shotgun snap Tony and left tackle 839 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 4: Blocket goes the pe Ryan the catch on a lunge 840 00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:20,400 Speaker 4: of the thirty five, thirty breaks to tackle it on 841 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 4: the park sideline twenty five, down the fire sideline twenty 842 00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,399 Speaker 4: and knocked out of bounds at the eighteen yard line 843 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 4: of the Bills. Oh my goodness, you can feel it 844 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 4: inside the stadium. The clock is ticking. 845 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 10: Seven second differential, but one more snap puts the Lamar 846 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 10: Hunt Trophy right back. 847 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 3: Into the Kansas City Trophy case again, going to a need. 848 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 10: You can't doubt the Chiefs. You can dislike the Tiefs, 849 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 10: you can disrespect the Chiefs. You're gonna have to deal 850 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 10: with the Chiefs being the first team in National Football 851 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 10: League history to win back to back Super Bowls and 852 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,760 Speaker 10: go to the Super Bowl for a chance for at three. 853 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 3: Teat hard to argue with the voice of the Kansas 854 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:10,800 Speaker 3: City Chiefs Mitch Holtis also heard from Kevin Harlan Westwood 855 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 3: one with that final conversion to run out the clock 856 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 3: as the Chiefs scored a season high thirty two points, 857 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 3: first time hitting the thirty point mark all year. And 858 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 3: they are a field goal better than the Bills thirty 859 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 3: two to twenty nine. And yes, Patrick Mahomes and company 860 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 3: back on Super Bowl Sunday, And poor Josh Allen, he 861 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 3: is now zero to four against Mahomes in the postseason. 862 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,799 Speaker 3: Can beat Mahomes in the regular season, Paul just can't 863 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 3: do it in the postseason. 864 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know what, I will dislike the Chiefs, So 865 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,759 Speaker 5: if he's offering, I'll take him up on that offer. America, 866 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 5: though still viewing earlier, today record TV ratings best AFC 867 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:55,720 Speaker 5: Championship game viewing audience ever fifty seven point four million viewers, 868 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 5: breaking the record from last year when the Chiefs were 869 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 5: in it as well. So there's that. As for the 870 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 5: fatigue factor, it's real. It's palpable, there's no doubt. Just 871 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 5: like that feeling in the Kansas City Stadium. It's palpable 872 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 5: around America. 873 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. 874 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,360 Speaker 5: Look, we're all gonna watch the super Bowl. Yes, I 875 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 5: just probably will not consume all the hooplah leading up 876 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 5: to the super Bowl like I typically do, just that 877 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,280 Speaker 5: sense of been there and done that with Kansas City. 878 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 5: I know enough about Kansas City and the personalities, and 879 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 5: you know, I don't know how much more there is 880 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 5: to really reveal, and if there is, I don't have 881 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 5: much appetite for it. So because every time you turn 882 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,920 Speaker 5: around there's another commercial featuring one of the Kansas City players. 883 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 5: So I think that's where the fatigue really compounds itself. 884 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,400 Speaker 3: It is, at least for me Kyle a fun team 885 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 3: to watch, just how they conduct themselves, whether offensively or defensively. 886 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,719 Speaker 3: They're just so good at it, and yeah, it's frustrating 887 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,839 Speaker 3: at times. Yet at the same time, it's like, I mean, 888 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 3: it's they're good, and they're they're they're not I mean, 889 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:01,360 Speaker 3: it's not outstanding. They don't wow you with stats, but 890 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 3: again it goes back to what are you measure by? 891 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,439 Speaker 3: And it's the one lost record and they have more 892 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 3: wins than you, and they just continue to get Lombardi Trophies. 893 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 6: And they find a way. To your point, it's not 894 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 6: always pretty. But the number everybody's talking about is at 895 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 6: seventeen straight games that they've won in one score ball games, 896 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:26,360 Speaker 6: and somebody had come down with statistical analysis of that. 897 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,719 Speaker 6: It's a tenth of a percent of that happening for 898 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,920 Speaker 6: any team to win seventeen games by one score less, 899 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,960 Speaker 6: and it all falls on Patrick Mahomes and he just 900 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,360 Speaker 6: keeps finding ways to will his team to win. He 901 00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 6: had seven fourth quarter comebacks this season. Really impressive. 902 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 3: It's mind boggling. I mean, yeah, you would think at 903 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:49,520 Speaker 3: some point they would stumble, but at this point, it's 904 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 3: hard to see it. Even though I think to your point, Paul, 905 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 3: there's several people outside of Kansas City that would love 906 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,879 Speaker 3: to see Philadelphia win or someone else knock off. 907 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:04,840 Speaker 5: The nine straight playoff wins. Nine straight playoff wins. Okay, 908 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,840 Speaker 5: there's a reason why in the moment they're the best 909 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 5: team in the league. 910 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 3: We'll have more time to talk about the Super Bowl 911 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,320 Speaker 3: in one week's time.
