17
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 4: the Big Game on Friday, Brophy, Red Mountain, Kyle Vannenbosch

18
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 4: another playoff victory. We're just riding along here on Cardinals

19
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 4: Red Sea Report.

20
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 5: Kyle, Yeah, I'll tell you what that was. One of

21
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 5: the funnest games I've been on the sidelines for. We

22
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 5: were down seventeen zip. Kids kept believing, and then, as

23
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 5: Wolfley says, crazy Carl showed up and the ball started

24
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 5: to bounce our way and they couldn't stop they once

25
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 5: we got to momentum, it was tough to stop.

26
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 6: Now, wait a minute, you were crazy Carl. You're the

27
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 6: special teams coordinator. You called for what was it a

28
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 6: squibkick slash on sidekick that you guys recovered.

29
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was a squibkick that accidentally hit a guy

30
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 5: in the face and we recovered it. So that's that

31
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 5: was the crazy Carl part of it.

32
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:41,479
Speaker 7: Nice.

33
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, who knew that Jeff Rogers had someone right now

34
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 4: within the building that could give him a run for

35
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 4: his money, a special teams coordinator. So well done, Kyle,

36
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 4: Van and Bosch. Again, that is on Friday. That is

37
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 4: not the main topic. However, here on the Cardinals Red

38
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 4: Seat Report presented by a seat Kick Your Ticket to

39
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 4: Great Seats, we are talking about a twenty one sixteen

40
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 4: loss at the Houston Texans, second start for Kyler Murray,

41
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 4: first start on the road, and a game, Kyle that

42
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 4: you look at and you say, all right, the offense

43
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 4: started great and then sputtered the defense. Not a great start,

44
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,119
Speaker 4: but then shut out the Texans in the second I've

45
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 4: given the offense a chance to get back into that ballgame,

46
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 4: didn't happen. Where do is your mind go when you

47
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 4: look back at what happened in the first half compared

48
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 4: to the second half.

49
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's always tough to figure out why that happens

50
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 5: throughout the course of a game. And this isn't new

51
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 5: for the Cardinals this season. They've They've done this throughout

52
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 5: the season. They've played well for Spurts, both offensively and defensively.

53
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 5: I mean, even I know we're gonna get to the

54
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 5: Rams later. You know, they did a great job against

55
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 5: the Rams the first time they played him. And then the

56
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 5: Rams come out and run the ball nine times and

57
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 5: just keep pounding it down the defensive throat. So, you know,

58
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 5: there's two things. One, you know, Kyler's still working his

59
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 5: way back the time. He's not quite there. Footwork's not

60
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 5: quite there. But I still see signs that are really

61
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 5: encouraging with his play, with his leadership, with his willingness

62
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 5: to pull the ball down and fight for the extra yards.

63
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 5: And you know, more than anything as leadership. Secondly, the defense,

64
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,959
Speaker 5: you know, they come up with really good game plans

65
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 5: and when they struggle early, they make really good adjustments.

66
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 3: You know.

67
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 5: I think the biggest thing that the defense did in

68
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 5: the second half it was CJ. Stroud And they talked

69
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 5: about this on the TV. He's great with these inbreaking routes,

70
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 5: the intermediate to deep balls that are coming across the middle.

71
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 5: We could see it all through the first half, just

72
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 5: connecting on those and that's where they got two of

73
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 5: their interceptions in the first half. They ended up, you know,

74
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 5: really clouding some of those lanes in the middle of

75
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 5: the field, and that you know, in the second half,

76
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 5: Houston struggled to move the ball because of that.

77
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 4: Considering Paul, where this game was trending at halftime twenty

78
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 4: one to ten, you had not been able to stop

79
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 4: the Texans at all.

80
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 7: CJ.

81
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 4: Stroud and company were moving that football up and down

82
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 4: the field and then Kyleer Murray, Yeah, that first possession

83
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 4: forty eight yard to Ron del Moore. Things looking good,

84
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 4: but then stalled after that, and then the script flipped.

85
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 4: In the second half, the defense pitched a shutout and

86
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 4: the offense unable to sustain drives, failing on fourth down

87
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 4: three possessions to end the game.

88
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 6: It's always amazing how a game will change over the

89
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 6: course of a game. I'm standing there on the sideline.

90
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 6: There's Lucky Foto had a sack earlier in the game.

91
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 6: He's out with a hand injury. Kaiser White out early

92
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 6: in the game, ends up being a season ending bicept injury.

93
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 6: Antonio Hamilton by the end of the game he had

94
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 6: the interception, but the groin injury. He got carted off.

95
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 6: So you're missing dudes at all three levels of the defense.

96
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 6: Somehow they pitch a shutout in the second half, twenty

97
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 6: one to ten at halftime, and Cardinals are probably lucky

98
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 6: it wasn't worse, as the Texans had three hundred and

99
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 6: thirty three total yards. It's just amazing the ebb and flow.

100
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 6: And then just as amazing to me where some of

101
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 6: the throws that Kyler missed as beautiful as that forty

102
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 6: eight yarder was to start the game. The fourth play

103
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 6: of the game, right on the money, hitting the post,

104
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 6: Rondll Moore with a mega deep shot. You're thinking at

105
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 6: that point, all right, Kyler has dialed in, and then

106
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 6: on key fourth downs. You know, he had some misses,

107
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 6: the Trey McBride in particular. You just don't see those

108
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 6: very often. So it is amazing. Whenever you kick off

109
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 6: of football in an NFL game, you never exactly know

110
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 6: what to expect, and the Cardinals were on the good

111
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 6: and bad end of both of those.

112
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 4: You always like to say little things become big things.

113
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 4: While on Sunday was the details that head coach Jonathan

114
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 4: Gannon pointed two.

115
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 8: You know, it just comes down to the details and

116
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 8: making some plays. You know, That's why I just told

117
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 8: a team they made a couple more plays.

118
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 7: Than we did.

119
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 8: But that's all phases of the game, not just third down.

120
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 8: But you know, I felt like we just kind of

121
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 8: dug ourselves a little bit of a hole there in

122
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 8: the first half, down eleven versus good football team, and

123
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 8: we got back in it and kept fighting.

124
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 7: But you know, he just didn't get it done.

125
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 4: And they did come back with that one yard touchdown

126
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 4: run by Kyler Murray on fourth and goal went for two,

127
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 4: did not get it, but pulled to within five with

128
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 4: two point fifty two left to go in the third quarter,

129
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 4: and Kyler Murray Kyle two hundred and fourteen passing yards

130
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 4: fifty one rushing yards. The numbers look good, but it

131
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 4: was not quite good enough for the Cardinals, especially how

132
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 4: much they had that chance to come back in that

133
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 4: game and really missed opportunity given.

134
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 7: What the defense was able to do.

135
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the hard part is I feel like in

136
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 5: those situations, we've just come to expect Kyler to do

137
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 5: some magical things and bring the team back. I mean,

138
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 5: all through that fourth quarter, it just felt like it

139
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 5: was a matter of time before they punched the ball

140
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 5: on the end zone and regained the lead, and it

141
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 5: just didn't happen. Now, you know, look, you know there's

142
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 5: a lot being made of some of Kyler's missthrows, and

143
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 5: they were there, but there was only a few of them.

144
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 7: There was also some great throws.

145
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 5: I mean, PAULI already talked about the long forty eight

146
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 5: yard touchdown pass to Rondell Moore. There was a ball

147
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 5: to Greg Dortch in between four defenders. I mean, he

148
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 5: had four defenders within five yards and he slipped it

149
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 5: in there on the sideline. There were some other really

150
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 5: good throws that he made that very few quarterbacks can made.

151
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 5: One in particular rolling out to his left and he

152
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 5: went sidearm to a player coming back across the middle.

153
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 5: So you know, again you can see how special this

154
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 5: offense can be. You know, I think it's just a

155
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 5: matter of Drew Petsing still figure out what Kyler does best.

156
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 5: Kyler still working himself back into you know, playing shape playing,

157
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 5: you know, so the game slows down. It still looks

158
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 5: like sometimes it's a little bit fast for him. But

159
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 5: even you know, his touchdown run, you know, that's a

160
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 5: special play. He had guys at his feet. It should

161
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 5: have been a tackle for a loss from the beginning,

162
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 5: and he willed himself to get into the end zone.

163
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 5: So you know, he's you know, I'm excited about where

164
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 5: this offense is going. It's just not quite there yet,

165
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 5: but they'll get it.

166
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 6: Cardinals three to ten on third down. I thought Matt Burke,

167
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 6: the former Cardinals d line coach and defensive coordinator, did

168
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 6: a good job in concert with Dimiko Ryans. It's Demiko

169
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 6: Ryan's scheme and he knows Kyler really well from their

170
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 6: days together in the division. So in key moments, third

171
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 6: and fourth downs, they lit him up, they heeded him up,

172
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 6: They tried to speed up the decision making process. In

173
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 6: Kyler's second game in eleven months, I think it showed.

174
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 6: But at the same time, guess what they got home?

175
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 6: That Texans pass rush got home. I thought for the

176
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 6: third straight week, the Cardinals pass protection wasn't exactly or

177
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 6: where it was earlier in the year, and so all

178
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 6: that told, it wasn't entirely on Kyler. But when he's

179
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 6: got dudes in his face almost instantly credit to the Texans,

180
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 6: then yeah, that makes a difference.

181
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 4: Speaking of Kyler Murray, let's hear from QB one on

182
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 4: what did and did not happen on Sunday.

183
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 9: Wasn't enough good? Yeah, we made some plays, but just

184
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 9: like I said, just felt like, you know, the defense,

185
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 9: you know, they did what they needed to do, and

186
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 9: we didn't hold up our end of the board. You

187
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 9: don't our So so that was frustrating. You know, I

188
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 9: feel like had too many opportunities not to win that game.

189
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 6: Kyler Murray really wore that loss. I was in that

190
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 6: press conference room in Houston, that was after about thirty

191
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 6: to forty minutes where Kyler was in the locker room.

192
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 6: Much of that time spent just staring into his life,

193
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 6: talking to his quarterbacks, coach Israel Wolffork. So that hit hard,

194
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 6: it really was. And you know, Kyler went into that

195
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 6: press conference room and he took the bulk of the blame,

196
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 6: the responsibility, the culpability, and you know, I think that's

197
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 6: a sign of his evolution as a franchise quarterback and

198
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 6: a leader.

199
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 4: Here's more of what Murray had to say postgame quote.

200
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,960
Speaker 4: The defense did what they needed to do. We didn't

201
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 4: hold up our end of the bargain. And Kyle, that

202
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 4: is something you want to hear from a quarterback, your

203
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 4: franchise quarterback. I don't know if we've heard it enough

204
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 4: previously in previous seasons from k one, but you could tell,

205
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 4: just if you didn't see it, you could hear it

206
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 4: in Kyler's voice on how disappointed he was more in

207
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 4: himself in not leading the offense back into the game.

208
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just another sign of his growth, him embracing

209
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 5: his leadership role. Now let me say this now, I

210
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 5: think you know we were all spoiled with his first

211
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 5: game back in some of the things he did in

212
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 5: that game and the way he played. But one thing

213
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 5: I can promise you, and I've been in this situation

214
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 5: coming back from an ACL injury. He has never been

215
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 5: as sore as he was Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday of last week.

216
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 5: You know, playing a full game, your first full game back,

217
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 5: just being thrown into the mix when everybody else. It

218
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 5: takes your body time to get conditioned for an NFL game.

219
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 5: And it's not even just training camp. You know, players

220
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 5: aren't necessarily ready for the riggers in the in the

221
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 5: the the trauma that it causes your body until like

222
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 5: game three or four. There's a point you hit in

223
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 5: the season where you play yourself into shape and you're

224
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 5: not as sore. It doesn't feel quite as bad on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.

225
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 5: But having it be his first game back, the amount

226
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 5: of times he ran with the ball, you know, I

227
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 5: think you know he's finding it's we all expected a

228
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 5: linear progression. Kyler was great his first game back. It's

229
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,560
Speaker 5: going to be even better his second game. For me, personally,

230
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 5: I expected a little bit of a drop in his

231
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 5: performance just because of what he came back from. What

232
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 5: he's dealing with, the residual pain, the extra soreness on

233
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 5: that knee. So you know, not to say that it's

234
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 5: a new injury that he's fighting through, it's just a

235
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 5: process and it's going to take time and it may come,

236
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 5: you know, in the next couple of weeks where you

237
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 5: know he doesn't feel quite as bad on a Monday

238
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 5: and Tuesday.

239
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 6: See KVB has been there and done that. Garrett Williams

240
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 6: after his debut, We had him on the Big Red

241
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 6: Rage that Thursday night after his debut against Seattle, he

242
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 6: said he's never been as sore as that Monday, after

243
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,679
Speaker 6: his first game in a year, coming back from the

244
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 6: knee injury he suffered his final year at Syracuse, both

245
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 6: the knee and just overall just playing football again, full speed,

246
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 6: full contact football for the first time in the year.

247
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 6: He said, just like Kyle just said, it was the

248
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 6: most sore he's ever been, and.

249
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 4: Maybe even more sore because of what the offense was

250
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 4: unable to do, and that is score points off of

251
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 4: three defensive takeaways, three interceptions when CJ. Stratt had only

252
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 4: been picked off twice in nine games coming into Sunday's contest.

253
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 4: And Kyler were the decisions made in the second half

254
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 4: going forward. On fourth down, we touched on the one

255
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 4: successful fourth down conversion that was a Kyle Murray touchdown run,

256
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 4: but then three times in the second half going forward

257
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 4: on fourth down, and there's been.

258
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 7: A lot of talk, a lot of chatter about.

259
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 4: Those decisions, but I think this day and age, more

260
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 4: times than not, coaches in twenty twenty three are going

261
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 4: to go for it based on what the numbers tell them.

262
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 4: And I know Gannon did talk about it on Monday.

263
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 4: There is some gut feel as well. But in that

264
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 4: game on Sunday, at least to me, you needed touchdowns.

265
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 4: Field goals weren't going to beat you, and you didn't

266
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 4: know what the Cardinals defense was going to do and

267
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 4: stopping and shutting down the Texans.

268
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 7: Now, I think you're right.

269
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 5: It's tough to say when you're not the one making

270
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,719
Speaker 5: those decisions, but saying that, you know, if you can

271
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 5: get that game to you know, two points, you've got

272
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 5: one of the best kickers in the league. You get

273
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,959
Speaker 5: the ball across midfield with an opportunity to take the

274
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 5: lead late in the game, he's going to make that

275
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 5: field goal. So he's a true weapon, and you hate

276
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 5: to see them not use him, Matt Prater in those

277
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 5: situations because he is clutch. He's made you know, so

278
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,719
Speaker 5: many long fifty sixty yard field goals that you know

279
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 5: that all you got to do is get it across

280
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 5: midfield and you've got a shot. So and you know

281
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,719
Speaker 5: one other thing, and I realized most of these are

282
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 5: without Kyler Murray at quarterback. But the team is six

283
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 5: of twenty two on fourth downs throughout the season. So

284
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 5: just because the sheet says you get this situation, you

285
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 5: need to go for it, you also need to look

286
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,720
Speaker 5: at your success and how things have gone in the

287
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 5: past and what your team is capable of. So you know,

288
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 5: I'm not here to criticize the decisions I actually love

289
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 5: as a coach. I'm ultra conservative, but I love seeing

290
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 5: coaches that are aggressive and go for the jugglar and

291
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 5: take advantage of opportunities because when you make those key

292
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 5: clutch fourth downs and you're able to convert, it really

293
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,719
Speaker 5: does give your team a lot of momentum against the sidelines,

294
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 5: more engaged, and gives you more confidence going forward. It's

295
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 5: just unfortunate that they weren't able to executing those situations.

296
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 4: The most questionable decision was in which we're talking about

297
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 4: here is fourth and three at the Houston twenty three

298
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 4: of the past complete to Greg Dortch, but he is

299
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 4: short of the first down would have been a forty

300
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 4: or forty one yard field goal. You elect to go

301
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 4: forward and you come up short. Now, the discussion also

302
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 4: perhaps maybe a little bit hit home for the head coach,

303
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 4: as he joked about it on Monday.

304
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 8: Literally they were up yesterday because I don't think they

305
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 8: had school.

306
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 7: But God, go to bed. But kids deead just kick

307
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 7: three field goals and you win.

308
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 8: I got it, I got it. But uh roco, I know,

309
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 8: could you imagine that? Lowela says, Dad, you need a

310
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 8: new strategy. I got it.

311
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 4: Again, all in jest, it was a joke. Yet the

312
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 4: head coach, you make those decisions. You have to live

313
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 4: with the results, and the results were not good on Sunday.

314
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 6: Now, I'm not counting the final fourth down because he

315
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 6: had to go forward in that situation, But I will

316
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 6: go back to the two point conversion that wasn't That

317
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 6: would have made it twenty one eighteen. At that point,

318
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 6: it's late third quarter. Are you thinking you're gonna truly

319
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 6: shut out c J? Stroud the rest of the way.

320
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 6: I get it to be ultra aggressive, But to Kyle's point,

321
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 6: you also have to gauge how was your offense firing.

322
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 6: Dave bashed Old the funny story He's calling a college

323
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 6: football game on ESPN and he said, all right, they're

324
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 6: gonna go for the field goal here, and simultaneously this

325
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 6: analytic graphic popped up that said go for it. So

326
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 6: it's all analytics these days, and the numbers will dictate

327
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 6: in a lot of ways.

328
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 7: Oh.

329
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 6: Jonathan Gannon has said repeatedly it's both the numbers and

330
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 6: his gut feel as a head coach.

331

339
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 2: A forty eight yard strike to Rondel Moore.

340
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 3: Go mighty, Kyler Murray once again out of twelve personnel.

341
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 3: The ball came down out of nowhere, right into the

342
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 3: arms of Rondel Moore.

343
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 2: Incredible snap to Murray, He's gonna keep it running right

344
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 2: and trouble in the ten, cuts right to the five,

345
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 2: sticks the ball out into the end zone for the touchdown.

346
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 2: I have no idea how Kyler Murray just did that.

347
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 3: Pitter patter, pitter patter, those little quick feet, Oh my goodness.

348
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 3: The four to three was unleashed, getting the edge all

349
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 3: shot those feet up Kyler Murray.

350
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 4: Two plays on Sunday that showcased the unique skill sets

351
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 4: of Kyler Murray. The deep ball forty eight yards in which,

352
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 4: according to next Gen Stats, fifty three in a third

353
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 4: yards of air distance on that throw, and then the

354
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 4: one yard touchdown run on fourth and goal, which Murray

355
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 4: backpedals all the way close to the ten yard line

356
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 4: in order to just get that one yard and score

357
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 4: the touchdown to make it twenty one sixteen with two

358
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 4: fifty two to go in the third quarter. Unfortunately, that

359
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 4: would be your final score as the Cardinals lose in

360
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 4: Houston twenty one to sixteen. As we say welcome back,

361
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 4: it is the Cardinals Red Seat Report presented by a

362
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 4: seat Geek your ticket to great Seats, Craig Reyolu Paul

363
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 4: Calvic and Kyle Nnenbosch. And you look at what Kyler

364
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 4: was able to do in that game, Kyle as far

365
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 4: as with his arms, with his legs and not great

366
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 4: least compared to his first game. But let's not forget

367
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 4: this is week two for Kyler, where everyone else is

368
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 4: into week eleven.

369
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 7: Yeah.

370
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 5: Again, there was some really really good things. I mean,

371
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,919
Speaker 5: including that DP ball. I mean, he didn't put that

372
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 5: thing on a rope. That ball was thrown high in

373
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,160
Speaker 5: the perfect spot so that Rondell Moore could run underneath.

374
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 5: I mean, to have that type of touch on the

375
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 5: deep ball. I mean we've seen it from Kyler, We've

376
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 5: seen it over and over in the past. But that's

377
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 5: what this offense has been missing, you know, that deep shot.

378
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 5: And you know the thing you're seeing too is now

379
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,439
Speaker 5: that we're able to stretch the field, we're taking some

380
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 5: deep shots. People are worried about Kyler Murray's arms. You know,

381
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,640
Speaker 5: it's opening up some more things for James Connor. James

382
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 5: Connor had I can't tell you how many ten yard

383
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 5: runs in this game that he you know, in my opinion,

384
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 5: they should have just kept feeding him because James Connor

385
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 5: is doing some special things throughout the ball game too,

386
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 5: so but yeah, I mean it's so good to see.

387
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:42,400
Speaker 5: You know, there is no hesitation in Kyler Murray's game

388
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 5: when it comes to running the ball.

389
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 7: He is not.

390
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,679
Speaker 5: Afraid to plant, He's not afraid to run. Took a

391
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 5: couple of big shots that I don't even know that

392
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 5: we saw him take. Sometimes he goes almost an entire

393
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 5: season without taking big shots. But he he looks more

394
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 5: determined actually when he runs the ball, fighting for the yards.

395
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 5: So again, you know, there was everybody wants to focus

396
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 5: on some of the throws that didn't come out of

397
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 5: his hand right, that the timing was off, that he

398
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 5: didn't quite put enough on them, but the good things

399
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 5: he did shows what this offense is capable of with

400
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 5: when Kyler Murray can do the things he can do

401
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 5: with both his arm and his legs.

402
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 6: Certainly not going out of bounce. I mean, he is

403
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 6: running as aggressively in upfield as we've ever seen him.

404
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 6: In fact, I asked Jonathan Gannon on his weekly TV

405
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 6: show this week, you know about that if that's part

406
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 6: of the coaching instruction, and he said, no, no, we

407
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 6: want him to protect himself as much as possible. I

408
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 6: just think it illustrates Kyler's determination right now to show

409
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 6: something to that locker room, to show something to this

410
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,440
Speaker 6: new coaching staff, before and after in this game. As

411
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 6: elated as he was after that forty eight yard strike,

412
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 6: I don't think I've ever seen him that fired up.

413
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,640
Speaker 6: I mean not even after the Vegas and the Raiders

414
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 6: game last year. You know, probably because he was so

415
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 6: exhausted after running eighty yards and getting into the end zone.

416
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 6: But then to compare and contrast that with how crestfallen

417
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 6: he was at the end of the game, where he's

418
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 6: in the locker room and he's in full uniform thirty

419
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 6: minutes after the game. He took it hard. So I

420
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 6: mean he is fully vested. For anyone thinks maybe he's

421
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 6: going through the motions he's too cool for school, Absolutely not.

422
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,640
Speaker 6: I think this means more to him than ever, especially

423
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 6: after he missed the game for almost a complete year.

424
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 6: I think he has a renewed appreciation for what he lost.

425
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 4: Murray's numbers on Sunday twenty thirty for two hundred and

426
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 4: fourteen yards through the air, a touchdown, and interception. He

427
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,880
Speaker 4: ran the ball seven times for fifty one yards and

428
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 4: a touchdown. Again, this is just game two, Kyler Murray postgame.

429
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 9: So this one's gonna staying Washington, just because there were

430
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 9: a lot of plays to be made and a lot

431
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 9: of things that we probably wish we would have done differently.

432
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 9: I know there's gonna be for me. But now the standards,

433
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 9: the standard, it's just it's frustrating. It's frustrating. It's frustrating

434
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 9: the defense gave you know, I know for sure they

435
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 9: gave us enough opportunity to go win the game and

436
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 9: we didn't make it happen again.

437
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 4: You can hear the frustration in his voice. In fact,

438
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 4: he used the word frustrating seven times in his six

439
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 4: minute postgame interview with reporters in Houston, and then Paul You.

440
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 7: Touched on it.

441
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 4: As far as his reaction in the locker room in

442
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 4: the just standing there, I should say, sitting there facing

443
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 4: his locker in full uniform for twenty thirty minutes before

444
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 4: he did address reporters. Head coach Jonathan Gannon asked about

445
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 4: that as far as if Kyler Murray is too critical

446
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 4: of himself.

447
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 8: There's some plays in that game that he made that

448
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 8: reason why we're in the game and then there's some

449
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 8: plays that he's he's very critical of himself. He takes

450
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 8: arrow in the forehead. He's wearing me out on a

451
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 8: plane at night, driving home this morning. I'm sure he

452
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 8: wants to play today, but understanding that it's.

453
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 7: Not about one guy.

454
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 3: Never is.

455
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,879
Speaker 8: But what I've learned is he's ultra competitive and he

456
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,239
Speaker 8: wants to do everything that he can to help our

457
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 8: team win.

458
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 7: And I appreciate that.

459
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 4: And I think the word that you both have used

460
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 4: and that is determined, and that's something I don't know

461
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 4: if we would have used in the previous four years.

462
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 7: Yeah.

463
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 6: I mean, look, it's almost the opposite of what I

464
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 6: expected in his return in that I figured the run

465
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 6: game would be slow to come and materialize and develop.

466
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 6: And you're not going to see the four to three

467
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 6: right out of the gate. No, we've seen him. He

468
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,640
Speaker 6: looks ridiculous running the ball. He still looks like arguably

469
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 6: the best athlete on the field. But when he misses throws,

470
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 6: not only Trey McBride, but the Elijah Higgins who was

471
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,679
Speaker 6: wide open and that should have been a completion. He

472
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 6: missed Hollywood Brown deep for the second game, should have

473
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 6: been two touchdowns. I think in his mind, that's why

474
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,640
Speaker 6: he's wearing it, that's why he's owning it, that's why

475
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 6: he's dejected.

476
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 7: Those are throws that.

477
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 6: In his mind should be automatic throws that he's made

478
00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 6: in the past. Now, after the game, part of that

479
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 6: press scarments he put it on himself. He cited his footwork.

480
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 6: You needs some work. That's part of this new scheme.

481
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 6: There is new footwork involved, so we'll see. On the

482
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 6: other hand, you know, I asked Jonathan Gannon about how

483
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 6: things were became more challenging downfield pass game over the

484
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 6: course of the game. He cited the shell cover schemes

485
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,399
Speaker 6: that the Texans used that in the past have given

486
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 6: Kyler issues when we talked to the last couple of

487
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 6: years about adjusting the adjustment. Usually it's the too high

488
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 6: shell look that they get and Okay, what are you

489
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 6: going to do about it? And I think that's still

490
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 6: something that Kyler in his mind needs to prove.

491
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 4: The footwork topic of conversation is something I think is

492
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 4: going to take a little bit time because they are

493
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 4: asking not just Kyler, but all their quarterbacks to do

494
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,119
Speaker 4: something that they're not used to doing, and that is

495
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 4: left foot forward. It doesn't sound like a big deal, Kyle,

496
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 4: But when you talk about or you talk to an

497
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,239
Speaker 4: offensive lineman and making the switch from the left to

498
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 4: the right, try writing with your off hand or doing

499
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,639
Speaker 4: something with your other hand. It becomes much more difficult.

500
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 4: And I think we're seeing a little bit in game

501
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 4: two where first game you're at home, you're amped, you're

502
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,360
Speaker 4: ready to go. Second game on the road, different environment,

503
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 4: and maybe some of those bad habits do creep into

504
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 4: your mind when things aren't going well.

505
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 7: Yeah. I think there's two things we've seen this from

506
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 7: him in the past.

507
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:19,959
Speaker 4: You know.

508
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 5: The first thing is is he can make some incredible

509
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 5: throws outside the pocket on the run, feet off the ground,

510
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 5: off the back foot, I mean, just because of his

511
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 5: arm talent. I think sometimes his arm talent is so

512
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 5: good that he doesn't have great footwork when he's in

513
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 5: the pocket, when he's not under pressure. I know rich

514
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 5: Gannon commented on that after the game that even when

515
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,880
Speaker 5: he's not under pressure, he's got happy feet and he's

516
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 5: not really driving and stepping into his throws, and that

517
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,919
Speaker 5: can you know, when you're off schedule, that's fine, but

518
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 5: when you have time, you want to use your body Secondly,

519
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 5: you know, everybody expected, again to Paully's point, that he

520
00:24:57,960 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 5: wasn't going to be running the ball, he was gonna

521
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 5: be hesitant to pull it down, and that's far from

522
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 5: the case. I think it's much harder, you know, because

523
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 5: driving off that back leg and the torque you put

524
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,920
Speaker 5: because the quarterback doesn't just use his arm, he uses

525
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 5: an entire body to throw, and that puts a lot

526
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 5: of pressure on the repaired knee, the torque to really

527
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 5: step and deliver a ball and with his velocity that

528
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 5: he does, and you know, I liken it to a

529
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 5: golfer like you know, Tiger Woods had a knee surgery.

530
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 5: It really affected his game because of the rotation on

531
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 5: that knee, and it's the same thing with the quarterback.

532
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 5: So you know, I think those things are gonna come again.

533
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 5: You know, every game is gonna get a little bit better.

534
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 5: You know, he's he's again, you know, doing things in

535
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 5: a different offense, being asked to do different things. But

536
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 5: it's one thing that we've heard from this staff. We've

537
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 5: heard it from his quarterbacks coach, We've heard it from

538
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 5: Drew Petsing. You know, they're big on footwork. They're gonna

539
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:49,640
Speaker 5: work on it in practice, they're gonna get it down.

540
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 5: And I think, you know, once he gets that and

541
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 5: he's comfortable with his footwork in the pocket and really

542
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 5: able to drive those throws, I think you're going to

543
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 5: see a lot more accuracy going forward.

544
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 4: Right now, Kyler Murray is completing just under sixty three

545
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 4: percent of his passes. He has to wait five days

546
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 4: before he can get back on that football field Sunday

547
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 4: against the Los Angeles Rams. And it's wise you heard

548
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 4: earlier Jonathan Gannon saying, yeah, Murray will call him and

549
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,880
Speaker 4: bug I'm about trying to get better immediately as opposed

550
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 4: to waiting until the next day again, and.

551
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:20,639
Speaker 7: Expounded up on that excuse me.

552
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 4: As Murray calls him on his way home from the airport.

553
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 8: I'm glad I have what's it called. I don't have

554
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,199
Speaker 8: to put the phone in my ear anymore. Bluetooth, Yeah, Bluetooth.

555
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 8: And then I couldn't get my gate open, so I'm like,

556
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 8: you know, I gotta go. But yeah, Well, he washes

557
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 8: the tape with his and then he watches it with Drew,

558
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 8: and then he comes back to me and then he

559
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,160
Speaker 8: wants to talk about it more. I mean he's he's

560
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 8: got fire in his gut, you know what I mean.

561
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 8: And that's cool.

562
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,400
Speaker 4: And again keep in mind that also on Sunday, Paul,

563
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 4: you did not have Michael Wilson, you did not have

564
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 4: Zach Pascal, you did have Greg Dorts, you had seasoned

565
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 4: best as far as receptions and receiving yards on Sunday,

566
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 4: but a different kind of looking offense. And James Connor

567
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 4: didn't run the ball nearly as much as perhaps he should.

568
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 4: Have fourteen carries and that's basically what he has averaged

569
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 4: this season, when maybe there are some games in which

570
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 4: you push that to nineteen or even twenty carries a game.

571
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 6: And you only saw Kyler under center five times compared

572
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 6: to nine times in the first game. And I don't

573
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 6: really don't care. I mean, honestly, I just want to

574
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 6: see James Connor downhill in some form or fashion. James

575
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 6: Connor downhill more plays. He's so effective when he's coming

576
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,640
Speaker 6: with a full head of teams. So whether it's out

577
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 6: of the pistol, whether it's under center, doesn't matter to me.

578
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 6: All I know is I see dudes turning down James Connor.

579
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 6: And to Kyle's point earlier, it was feast or famine.

580
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 6: He either seemingly had a whole bunch of eleven yard

581
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 6: runs or he had nothing. And I just want to

582
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 6: know how much that syncs up with the manner in

583
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 6: which he's getting the handoff and whether he is truly

584
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 6: coming downhill when they give him the ball.

585
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll tell you the thing I love hearing there

586
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 5: is either relationship he has with Jonathan Gannon. He's calling him,

587
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,400
Speaker 5: he's meeting with him. You know, he's putting so much

588
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 5: on his shoulders in Jonathan Gannon's job, and he seems

589
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 5: to be doing a great job of it. Is it's

590
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,640
Speaker 5: not all you. You know, you are a big part

591
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 5: of this. But you know, you don't hear Kyler making excuses.

592
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 5: You don't hear him talking about missing receivers. You don't

593
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 5: hear him talking about his knee. You don't hear him

594
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 5: talking about a lot of pressure that he faced. You

595
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 5: don't hear him talking about, you know, the struggles with

596
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 5: clock management. He is taking responsibility. Now it's Jonathan Ganm's

597
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 5: job to relay. Hey, you're part of it. We're all

598
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 5: in this together. It's gonna take the whole team.

599
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 4: Want to hear more from the head coach Cardinals game

600
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 4: plan on Friday six point thirty on twelve News. This

601
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 4: is the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network.

602
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 2: Strout takes the snap play action pass setting up throws

603
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 2: middle of the end zone, intercepted by Jalen Thompson. Jalen

604
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 2: Thompson makes a play. He was in front of Collins

605
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 2: on that pass by Stroud. Just a third pick thrown

606
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 2: by Stroud and a huge takeaway for the defense. Restep

607
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 2: dropt from the pocket pass all the middle, picked off

608
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,239
Speaker 2: the intercepted by Barnes at the ten, running it back

609
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 2: to the left of the twenty at the thirty, barn

610
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 2: turnning on the jets of the forty, and finally tackle

611
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 2: at midfield the deflected pass into.

612
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 3: Chris Barnes and then man Chris Barnes looking ladies running

613
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 3: a four to four.

614
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 2: Stroud takes the shotgun staff dropped straight back fire's fire side,

615
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 2: picked off at the eighteen yard line by Antonio Hamilton.

616
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 2: He jumped the route, jumped in front of the wide

617
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,719
Speaker 2: receiver and CJ. Stroud has thrown more picks today than

618
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 2: he had through the first nine games of the.

619
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 4: Season, and two of those interceptions coming in the red zone. Cardinals,

620
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 4: with three takeaways on Sunday, could not take away a

621
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 4: win as they lose twenty one sixteen at the Texans.

622
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 4: As we welcome you to the second half of the

623
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 4: Cardinals Red Seat Report presented by Seeking Your Ticket, The

624
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 4: Great Seats Craig Reiya Lupaul Calvici and Kyve Andybasch looking

625
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 4: back at Sunday's game now with an eye and the

626
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 4: defense and just the difference kind of touched on it

627
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 4: at the start of the show, Kyle, But from the

628
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 4: first half to the second half, three hundred and thirty

629
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 4: three total yards in the first half, Texans ran eighteen

630
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 4: more plays, averaged almost eight yards of play through the

631
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 4: first two quarters. Different story in quarters three and four,

632
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 4: just eighty six total yards in the second half three

633
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 4: point four yards per play.

634
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was impressive. Whatever adjustments were made at halftime,

635
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 5: whatever was said to the players, the defense came out

636
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 5: and got the job done. I mean, they really did

637
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 5: a great job against an offense that looked at times

638
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 5: unstoppable in the first half. You know, and and you know,

639
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 5: to me it was it was so impressive. The adjustments.

640
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 5: It's something we've talked about with this team in the past,

641
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 5: the inability to make halftime adjustments. Well, Nick Rolis has

642
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 5: done a fantastic job of doing that. And you know,

643
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 5: to me, one of the bigger stories is, you know,

644
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 5: the number of players that make big plays, make stops,

645
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 5: do their job, and.

646
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 7: That's that's a large part of it is.

647
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 5: You know, even on the defensive line, I mean before

648
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 5: LeKi Fotu went out, he was having one of his

649
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 5: best games in recent memory. Roy Lopez had a good game,

650
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 5: Dante Stills, Phil Hoskins, who's pulled up off the practice squad.

651
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 5: You know, you're just seeing that contribution from whoever is

652
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 5: on the field. They're getting the job done. And to me,

653
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 5: that's a huge credit to the coaching staff because it

654
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 5: is you know, I remember having being on a defensive

655
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 5: line where we went through a rash of injuries and

656
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 5: we're bringing guys in every single week and the M D.

657
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 5: Lion coach was like, man, this is so hard, Like

658
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 5: I have to get this guy up to speed, get

659
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 5: him ready to play in three days. But this staff

660
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 5: gets it done. Guys that aren't your regular guys, that

661
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 5: are fill in, guys that are being called to duty,

662
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 5: sometimes called the duty because of injuries throughout the game.

663
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 5: I mean, you look at a player like Chris Barnes

664
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 5: who's thrown into duty and makes a huge play, gives

665
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 5: this team an opportunity to win the game late, and

666
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 5: you know, again that's all on the coaching staff.

667
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 4: Another injury as far as Kaiser White lost for the season,

668
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 4: so you're gonna have to dip into those reserves even more.

669
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 6: I mean, he basically played every snap of the year.

670
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 6: He's wearing the green dot, he's the quarterback of the defense.

671
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 6: He goes down early, so at that point, you're wondering, man,

672
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 6: are they ever going to recover?

673
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 7: CJ.

674
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 6: Stroud out to a ridiculous start to the game. His

675
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 6: passer rating was a buck twenty at halftime, and yet

676
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 6: somehow the Cardinals persevere. It was remarkable. In the second quarter.

677
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 6: I started to see Jonathan Gannon go over to the

678
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 6: bench and talk to the corners and the dbs in particular.

679
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 6: Remember that's his area of expertise from all those days

680
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 6: as an assistant coach. And it did get better. You

681
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 6: saw the Jalen Thompson interception deep middle towards the mid

682
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 6: to late second quarter, and then the head coach was

683
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 6: smoking mad about the forty yard touchdown strike right before halftime,

684
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 6: fact set of coming off the field, we can't let

685
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 6: the ball get thrown over our head. And then what

686
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 6: was remarkable was to me was the very start of

687
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 6: the second half and Jalen Thompson with almost a knockout

688
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 6: blowing c J. Stroud right, big hit, big sack, and

689
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 6: then CJ. Stroud leaves for a play, comes back. It's

690
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 6: third and seventeen and he hits tanked Helt for eighteen yards.

691
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 6: That was right at us on the sideline. The anticipation

692
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 6: to throw that ball deep out where Tank Dell hadn't

693
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 6: even made his he hadn't even broken yet towards the sideline.

694
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 6: Remarkable for a rookie. I can tell you c J.

695
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 6: Stroud got the respect of every player on that Cardinals sideline.

696
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 4: Fortunately for the Cardinals on miss field goal by matt

697
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 4: Amandola on that drive to maintain the eleven point deficit

698
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 4: for the Cardinals. The difference between the first half and

699
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 4: the second half wall. Here's linebacker Josh Woods on that topic.

700
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:36,959
Speaker 7: I think we just settled in.

701
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 9: We challenged each other in the locker room and just

702
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 9: said that you know, it's not on one person, one

703
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 9: position group, Like everybody just has to step the game

704
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 9: up and play better. And everybody rose to that.

705
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 4: Challenge certainly did with an interception in the second quarter,

706
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 4: two more interceptions in the fourth quarter, but again the

707
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 4: offense unable to take advantage of those takeaways. No points

708
00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 4: off the three turnovers, but the defense did putting the

709
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 4: offense in position to make plays. Head coach Jonathan gannon.

710
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 8: Nick called it a little bit different, and then we

711
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 8: executed a little bit better and you know, again the

712
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 8: three takeaways, that's why we got back into the game.

713
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 8: You know, I know, gave us a chance to get

714
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 8: back in a game and win the game. But you know,

715
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 8: spotting them the twenty one points there in the first half,

716
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,560
Speaker 8: I didn't think the execution and the calling of it,

717
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 8: all of us together, we got to do a better

718
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 8: job and not you know, give up twenty one points

719
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 8: and a half.

720
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 4: Josh Woods was asked about that on Monday, Kyle about

721
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,839
Speaker 4: the adjustments, and yeah, you want to start fast as

722
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 4: a defense, but sometimes you have a plan and then you

723
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 4: kind of feel things out in those first initial drives

724
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,760
Speaker 4: and then make the adjustment. You can't afford to wait

725
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,360
Speaker 4: until the second half. Maybe you start doing that before

726
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 4: you get to the locker room, But now, can you

727
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 4: maintain what we saw in the second half and do

728
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,840
Speaker 4: that on the onset of a game as opposed to

729
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 4: kind of waiting to kind of figure out what the

730
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 4: opposing team is doing.

731
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, they have, they can, I'm sorry, and they have.

732
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,799
Speaker 5: I mean, there's been several games this year where the

733
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 5: defense comes out and executes really well. And you know,

734
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 5: I've been really impressed with how the defense plays early

735
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 5: and the game plan coming in. But again to your point,

736
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 5: you know, sometimes and I've talked about this before, you know,

737
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:24,240
Speaker 5: players and coaches, you spend an entire week preparing one way,

738
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 5: focusing on you know, a few key things, and then

739
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 5: they come out and do something completely different. And if

740
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:35,320
Speaker 5: you cannot adjust immediately, like you said on the sidelines,

741
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 5: not even a halftime adjustment, you know, you get the tablet,

742
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,480
Speaker 5: you get your group together, you talk about the adjustments

743
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 5: you're gonna make, and you need to go out there

744
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 5: and excute and sometimes you got to execute something you've

745
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,240
Speaker 5: never practiced before. And that's what makes you a true professional,

746
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 5: that's what makes you a good coach, is when you

747
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 5: recognize here's what they're trying to take advantage of. Here's

748
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 5: how we're gonna go out there and handle it. And

749
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 5: you know, I've seen that at times, and it definitely

750
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 5: showed in this game, taking away what Houston likes to

751
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,799
Speaker 5: do and make them do something else, and they seem

752
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:07,720
Speaker 5: to have a hard time adapting in the second half.

753
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 4: And then you got to adjust to when you do

754
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 4: suffer an injury like Kaizer White being lost not only

755
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 4: for the game, although we did find out that he

756
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 4: played a handful of snaps even after tearing that bicep,

757
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 4: so he was playing with one arm. But we did

758
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,280
Speaker 4: see more of Josh Woods, we saw more of Chris Barnes.

759
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 4: Head coach Jonathan Gannon on those two stepping up with

760
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 4: Kaizer out.

761
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 8: Feel really good about Chris. I mean he came in there.

762
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 8: I mean he started games for us. He's played well,

763
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 8: extremely smart guy, can play multiple positions. You know how

764
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,479
Speaker 8: we kind of moved those guys around, But I thought

765
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 8: Josh took over the green dot and then Chris came

766
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 8: in and both of them played winning football. So we'll

767
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,720
Speaker 8: figure out who he got available this week, put together

768
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 8: a plan and go to.

769
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 4: Work and also have to figure out what you have

770
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,760
Speaker 4: on the defensive line as well, Paul, because Jonathan Ledbetter

771
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 4: did not play on Sunday, you lose Lucky Fotwo to

772
00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 4: a hand injury. Is he available this week or not?

773
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 4: That that's a position group along with several other position groups,

774
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 4: but as far as LJ. Collier, Carlos Watkins dealing with

775
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 4: bistep injuries that are likely season ending and now trying

776
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 4: to figure out who else do you have or do

777
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 4: you have to poach someone off another team's practice squad.

778
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 6: I mean, you know, it was the weekend was a whirlwind.

779
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:19,879
Speaker 6: So when the game starts, I'm looking on the bench,

780
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 6: I'm like, wait a minute, seventy nine, who's wearing Josh

781
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 6: Jones old jersey? Because it Haskins or Hoskins, Phil, what

782
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 6: is it? I mean, it was we were trying to

783
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,320
Speaker 6: figure that out on the fly there. But just speaks

784
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 6: to the depth issues right and so far. I mean

785
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:36,800
Speaker 6: Adante Stills the way he has come through Roy Lopez,

786
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,800
Speaker 6: the former Houston Texan. He was a little bit amped

787
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 6: up for that game, by the way, because he has

788
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 6: been training camp in Houston and he didn't make the

789
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 6: final fifty three, So he had a little extra extra

790
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,320
Speaker 6: in the trenches and he had a really good game.

791
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 6: But to think of all the names you just listed

792
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 6: who have been lost so far this year in that

793
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,840
Speaker 6: D line room, and you know already, you know you

794
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 6: didn't exactly have a lot of name players, you know,

795
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 6: compared to some other teams, like look at you the

796
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 6: Niners and the Eagles have in their D liner room.

797
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 6: So I think when you go into the draft in April,

798
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 6: I would not be shocked if your two first round

799
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 6: picks corner and D line.

800
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 4: Dante still's a sack on Sunday's got three and a

801
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 4: half on the season, making the most of his opportunities

802
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 4: as a defensive player with so many guys ahead of

803
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 4: him on that depth chart getting hurt for one reason

804
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,799

Speaker 4: It is the Cardinals Red Sea Report on the Arizona

Speaker 4: Cardinals Radio Network.

811
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 2: All right, so, let's start wolf as Morgan Freeman, Peter Pater,

812
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 2: Tracy Morgan, Peter Potter, Phil Welton.

813
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,760
Speaker 7: Those quick little feet, Oh my goodness.

814
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 10: The Ford three was under robertson Airol and somehow breaking

815
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 10: the plane and getting in.

816
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,880
Speaker 7: Oh but you know, chop those feet up, little Kyler Murray.

817
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 7: Shop there. This is actually a good Morgan fim.

818
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:18,800
Speaker 10: Pitter patter, pitter patter, those quick little feet, Oh my goodness.

819
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 7: The four to three was unleashed.

820
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:25,720
Speaker 10: Getting the edge and somehow breaking the plane and getting

821
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:31,800
Speaker 10: it in. Oh, chop those feed up, Kyler Murray. Kyler

822
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:35,280
Speaker 10: Murray climbed through five hundred yards of the filthiest slop.

823
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 10: I can't even imagine, or maybe I just don't want to.

824
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 4: The unmistakable voice of Frank Caliendo doing several voices as

825
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 4: he takes a day past Ron Wolfley play call from earlier.

826
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 4: In fact, we heard it earlier on the show the

827
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 4: one yard touchdown run and then Frank puts his own

828
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 4: spin on it. That was part of episode sixty nine

829
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 4: of the day Patch podcast, which is available as we speak,

830
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 4: featuring comedian Frank Caliendo his third time on the day

831
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 4: Patch podcasts and Paully. I can listen to that all

832
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 4: day long, oh.

833
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 6: Man, every time he joins Dave right, and it's I mean,

834
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 6: it's a great get by Dave, and it's just hilarity.

835
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 6: But you also get insight from Frank on a lot

836
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 6: of the voices, and you actually hear Frank and you

837
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 6: get you know, Okay, where does this all come from?

838
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,800
Speaker 6: How does he develop all these voices? But the ability

839
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 6: to do that, to call on audible instantly is Dave

840
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:30,800
Speaker 6: is yelling at him right, and to check into a

841
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 6: different play and a different voice just remarkable.

842
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 4: The pitter patter of yeah, that is great. We will

843
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 4: now make that smooth transition. Maybe we can come up

844
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:43,360
Speaker 4: with some different calls for Frank later on, and maybe

845
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 4: some win in winning calls. As the Cardinals will now

846
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 4: host the Rams. Coming up on Sunday twoh five is

847
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 4: the kickoff nine thirty. Pre game coverage begins on the

848
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 4: Arizona Cardinals Radio network. It is a rematch. These two

849
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,560
Speaker 4: teams met back in Los Angeles in Week six, the

850
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 4: Cardinals losing that game play six to nine. We remember

851
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 4: it well, Kyle, because that was a game in which

852
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 4: the script flipped on the Cardinals it was nine to

853
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,719
Speaker 4: six in favor of Arizona, and then what happened in

854
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 4: the second half. All the Rams ran all over the

855
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 4: Cardinals with one hundred and seventy four rushing yards with

856
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,320
Speaker 4: Kyan Williams accounting for one hundred and fifty eight yards

857
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,400
Speaker 4: on the ground. And oh, by the way, after missing

858
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 4: the past four games with an ankle injury, Kyron Williams

859
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 4: designated to return and potentially available for the Rams this week.

860
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's a big for them.

861
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 5: You know, Sean McVay has talked in recent weeks about

862
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 5: how much they missed Kieron Williams. I mean, Royce Freeman

863
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,680
Speaker 5: has been their feature back recently, done a good job.

864
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 5: But Kyen Williams basically had his coming out party against

865
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:43,240
Speaker 5: the Cardinals, had a huge game before he got hurt.

866
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:45,680
Speaker 5: So that'll be a challenge for this team. You know,

867
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 5: he won't catch the Cardinals by surprise this time. You know,

868
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 5: the Rams got some momentum. They're able to hang on

869
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 5: for a close win against against the tough Seattle defense.

870
00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:00,080
Speaker 5: But you know, this is a winnable game, there's all.

871
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,360
Speaker 5: There's a Cooper Cup is banged up. I don't know

872
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,240
Speaker 5: if Karen Williams is going to be full speed. Matthew

873
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 5: Stafford continues to take big hit after big hit, So

874
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 5: you know it's going to be a fun one to watch.

875
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 7: You know.

876
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,360
Speaker 5: The Cardinals, if they can execute better, more consistently throughout

877
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,320
Speaker 5: the course of this game, they'll have a real opportunity

878
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:18,759
Speaker 5: to win it.

879
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 6: So the Rams, when they started the game nine of

880
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,839
Speaker 6: the first ten plays pass second half, they came out

881
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,399
Speaker 6: nine of the first ten plays runs, so they completely

882
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:30,399
Speaker 6: flip the script. And if you remember after the game,

883
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 6: Jonathan Gannon said, when they punch us, we have to

884
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 6: punch back a little bit more. It's maybe the only

885
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 6: time this year where he is cited intensity, urgency effort.

886
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,280
Speaker 6: And so I'm curious see how the Cardinals react because

887
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 6: they definitely didn't have a good taste in their mouth

888
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 6: after one hundred and seventy four yards rushing by the

889
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:52,799
Speaker 6: Rams in that second half. Rams come in with a

890
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:56,320
Speaker 6: record of four and six. They rallied from a thirteen

891
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 6: point deficit to beat the Seahawks a week ago in

892
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 6: facts four up that season series over Seattle, only doing

893
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 6: so because the Seahawks missed a field goal late in

894
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:05,800
Speaker 6: that game.

895
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 4: The Rams though have you mentioned it Kyle Kyra and

896
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 4: Williams potentially returning, And yeah, they do still have number

897
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:14,480
Speaker 4: ninety nine. Aaron Donald leads the team in both sacks

898
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,719
Speaker 4: and tackles for lost and he has always been an

899
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:19,520
Speaker 4: issue for the Cardinals, especially Kyler Murray.

900
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, and his numbers don't jump off the stat sheet

901
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:23,839
Speaker 5: this year with five and a half sacks coming into

902
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 5: this game. But what'll be interesting, because Pauli brought this

903
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,879
Speaker 5: up earlier, is the number of times Kyler was under

904
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 5: center has gone down. When you put a quarterback under center.

905
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,320
Speaker 5: When you have Aaron Donald over lined up over a guard,

906
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 5: he's in immediate duress. So it'll be interesting to see

907
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 5: if they keep Kyler in shotgun throughout this game so

908
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,360
Speaker 5: he has some time to set up, survey the field,

909
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 5: and work the ball down the field.

910
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,600
Speaker 6: And oh, by the way, he knocked Geno Smith out

911
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,840
Speaker 6: of the game last Sunday. Now Gino returned, but he

912
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 6: came barnstorming right up the middle, right up the gut,

913
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 6: and he took down Geno Smith who was in mid throw,

914
00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 6: and he injured his arm for a while and he's

915
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 6: been down, I think ever since. So yeah, ninety nine

916
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:03,800
Speaker 6: when he turns it on. Is still one of the

917
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 6: biggest forces in the league.

918
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:08,520
Speaker 4: Rams have won twelve of the past four meetings against

919
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,799
Speaker 4: the Cardinals, and they split the season series a year ago.

920
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 4: Cardinals looking to force that issue again when they meet

921
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,799
Speaker 4: on Sunday two o five at State Farm Stadium. It

922
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 4: is a Rams team though, that I do think is

923
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,840
Speaker 4: able to be beatable. As you mentioned earlier, Kyleege just

924
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 4: because Matthew Stafford his completion percentage less than sixty percent,

925
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 4: it's his worst mark since twenty thirteen. He doesn't look

926
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,720
Speaker 4: all the way healthy. He did have a thumb issue

927
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,439
Speaker 4: that forced him to miss last week's game. Is at

928
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:39,920
Speaker 4: now all the way back to being one hundred percent.

929
