But you know what 17 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 2: they say about talking about the weather means you have 18 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 2: nothing else to talk about. That's why you arrived on 19 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 2: the weather in a conversation, and that is most definitely 20 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 2: not the case here on Cardinals Underground, brought to you 21 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 2: by Pacific Office Automation. Paul Calvic, Danny surrect Aaron Urban 22 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: then again, I don't know if I should start with 23 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 2: Buddha's shout out before camp. Let me clean this up 24 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 2: a little bit. As I quote, hey man, all I 25 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 2: want to know is are y'all bleeping ready? 26 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 3: Man? 27 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 2: Said Buddha Baker in his social media video Go cards 28 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 2: is what he. 29 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 4: Said he did, And as I wrote on Asycardinals dot com, 30 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 4: I don't want to overanalyze something like that. Oh no, 31 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 4: come on, there are worse harbingers of that before camp. 32 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: I'm encouraging you to overanalyze. 33 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 4: I know you are. That's what you do. 34 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 2: That's what I'm prone to overreacting. Come on now, Danny. 35 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 3: I got a chance to chat with Buddha a little 36 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 3: bit at Media Day earlier on Wednesday. Is that Tuesday, it's. 37 00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: Been somebody just spent seven hours in a very hot bubble. 38 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 2: By the way, today's high was a record high of 39 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 2: one to eighteen, and that is twenty six straight days 40 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: of one ten plus. 41 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 3: I got a chance to chat with Buddha as well 42 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 3: as some other players. But he seemed like he was 43 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 3: in good spirits. It didn't seem like a situation of 44 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 3: he was forced to be there, didn't want to be 45 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 3: involved in anything. Did not seem the way at all. 46 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 3: Seemed like a totally normal, energized, happy Buddha Baker. 47 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 2: So this isn't like, Oh, I don't know, Chris Jones 48 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 2: not showing up to Chiefs camp, or Zach Martin all 49 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 2: hold out at Cowboys camp, or now Nick Bosa staying 50 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 2: away from Niners camp as he seeks to become what 51 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 2: will probably be the richest defensive player contract in the 52 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 2: history of the game. Nick Bosa, So it's gonna be 53 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 2: a lot like last we saw Buddha Baker. I presume 54 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 2: in that mandatory mini camp you saw Buddha behind the scenes, 55 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 2: just didn't see him on the field. That's my presumption. 56 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: That's my guess. That's my forecap don't know that for sure. 57 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 2: I was going to say, we'll find out going into 58 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 2: day one of twas the night before essentially as we record, 59 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 2: I think. 60 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 3: I could kind of see either situation. Buddha Baker has 61 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 3: two years left on his contract, so he's not going 62 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 3: to sit out. So if that's the case, how much 63 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 3: stronger of a case is he making for himself by 64 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 3: not participating in training camp. I'm not so sure. He 65 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 3: doesn't seem like the type of person to be able 66 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 3: to watch full on practice at training camp and not 67 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 3: want to go out there and be involved and hit somebody. 68 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 3: So I feel like Buddha will probably be out there, 69 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 3: I would imagine, now, would it surprise me if you weren't. 70 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: Just with the way things happen around the league nowadays 71 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 3: and the business side of things and players standing up 72 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 3: for themselves or maybe what their agent or their team 73 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 3: is recommending, it wouldn't surprise me. However, I am leaning 74 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 3: more towards expecting to see Buddha Baker out there participating. 75 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 2: Darren, how do you quantify his value to the team 76 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 2: and how much of that do you think will figure 77 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 2: into the team's willing do either redo as existing deal, 78 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 2: add additional years to the deal, maybe guarantee some of 79 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 2: the money that supposedly is not effective immediately. I mean, look, 80 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: you're either part of the solution, you're part of the problem. 81 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: I think we all agree, and everyone saw it for 82 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,119 Speaker 2: themselves last year that Buddha Baker is most definitely part 83 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 2: of the solution. He is not only the heartbeat of 84 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: the defense, he's what I call BYOC bring your own culture. 85 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 2: The best players in any sport are really their own culture, 86 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 2: and he is that guy. 87 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 4: I don't disagree with you, Paul, I really don't. I 88 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 4: And here's the thing I don't. I have not talked 89 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 4: to anybody. I haven't talked to Buddha directly about this, 90 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 4: and I haven't talked to anybody on the team about this. 91 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 4: So this is all my speculation, which I guess was 92 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 4: something we could do. But trying to read Tea leaves here, 93 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 4: I don't know if anything gets done. I would think 94 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 4: if the Cardinals were inclined to change up his contract 95 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 4: with two years left on it, it would have been 96 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 4: done by now. I find it hard to believe it 97 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 4: wouldn't be done by now if that was the direction 98 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 4: they were going for multiple reasons. And again this is 99 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 4: I'm just I'm trying to look at this as a 100 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 4: purely you know, without emotion, nothing into it. A lot 101 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 4: of this stuff he's got, Buddha's got two years left 102 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 4: on his deal. He's making thirteen and then fourteen million dollars. 103 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 4: I don't know if they want to set a precedent 104 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 4: with redoing a contract with two years left. I don't 105 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 4: know if they really want to spend any more money 106 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 4: right now, just in general. I think the last I 107 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 4: saw the Cardinals were in the realm of twenty five 108 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 4: or twenty six million dollars on the salary cap. And 109 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 4: don't forget any salary cap money. You do not spend 110 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 4: this year rolls over or salary cap extra. So if 111 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 4: you're trying to build this chest for next year, that 112 00:05:55,040 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 4: might make more sense. Now. I understand where Buddha's coming from, absolutely, 113 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 4: but in some ways it's not apples to apples. But 114 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 4: in some ways it reminds me a little bit of 115 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 4: what these running backs are going through right now. And 116 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 4: they have very very strong arguments of why they should 117 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 4: be getting more money than they are, but they're not. 118 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 4: And part of it is the way the world works, 119 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 4: and part of it is just the business of putting 120 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 4: together an NFL. 121 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 2: Roster in the cold hard business of being a running 122 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 2: back is what's your leverage? What is your leverage to 123 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 2: force any sort of change. They had that zoom call 124 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: some of the premiere names who play the position, and 125 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 2: Nick Chubb was sort of designated to meet the media, 126 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 2: I guess, and he did an interview and he said, well, ultimately, 127 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 2: we're handcuffed. There's not much we can do. 128 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 3: Do we think James Connor was on the Zoom meeting? 129 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 2: I don't know. I thought about getting the Sideline reporters together, 130 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 2: you know, get Pam Oliver and Aaron Andrews, Tom Rinaldi, 131 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 2: you know, need a band together. No, I just be 132 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 2: sort of get everyone drinks. 133 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 3: You know what I mean is it's interesting like the 134 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 3: day after Saquon Barkley with the Giants gets one year deal. 135 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 4: Right, See that's the thing is like he got a deal. 136 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 3: Does that considered a successful meeting? Is that productive? 137 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 2: Honestly? I think he realized it was take it or 138 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 2: leave it. You're talking about so team Saquon his agent 139 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 2: got an extra million dollars potentially in bonus money that 140 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 2: gets them to almost eleven if he has a bantery. 141 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 2: But otherwise, what's he gonna do? 142 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 4: Did you see those incentives? 143 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 3: Though? 144 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 2: Did not? 145 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 4: The incentives, every single one of the incentives. He would 146 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 4: not only have to have a really good year, the 147 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 4: Giants have to win at least one playoff game, a 148 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 4: playoff birth. Maybe it's playoff birth, but still either way, 149 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 4: either win a playoff game or make the playoffs. Like 150 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 4: that's a big he could be awesome and they go 151 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 4: miss the playoffs and then he doesn't get any of that. 152 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 2: I like Saquon Barkley as much as the next guy. 153 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 2: You know what, the key to his season last year was, 154 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 2: not only was he healthy because the year before he's 155 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 2: still recovering from the torn acl but they fix the 156 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 2: offensive line. To me, that's where this Cardinals reset starts 157 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 2: with the offensive line. You got to fix the offensive line. 158 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 2: And if you do have an effective offensive line, I'm sorry, 159 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 2: most of the data will show you'll have an effective 160 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 2: run game no matter who the running back is. And 161 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 2: the data also shows, and the president also shows that 162 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 2: most second contracts for these running backs not very good 163 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 2: return on investment if you're the team. So I understand 164 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 2: that dynamic. Now, in terms of Buddha Baker, the cold 165 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 2: hard business could be something along the lines of, if 166 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 2: you believe the Vegas odds makers and all the naysayers 167 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:44,079 Speaker 2: and the prognosticators that guess what, we're gonna miss the 168 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 2: playoffs with or without you, So what's the team incentive 169 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 2: to redo the deal? Once again, I tend to think 170 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 2: if a deal is done or reworked, there'll be an 171 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: additional year added. Since Buddhist stone is prime at age 172 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 2: twenty seven. Maybe there's an additional year added off the 173 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 2: back end and they guarantee a little more money along 174 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 2: the way, and they rework it somehow, some way, So 175 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 2: it doesn't necessarily set a precedent of completely redoing an 176 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,079 Speaker 2: existing contract. Don't know, we'll find out. 177 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 4: But see here, here's my question. Why wouldn't that have 178 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 4: happened already? 179 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 2: Deadline spur action right the old and so what is 180 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 2: the deadline in this? If there's anybody who can miss 181 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 2: training camp and get away with it, it would be 182 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 2: the all pro safety Buddha Baker. So, but. 183 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 4: The deadline when you say miss training camp, you know 184 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 4: what you're implying. You're implying that Buddha refuses the practice. Yep, 185 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 4: Because the way the CBA is now, you can't just 186 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 4: not be at practice. You get fined, correct, Yeah, and 187 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 4: not only it's fifty grand a day. And it used 188 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 4: to be teams could forgive those fines, which they usually would. 189 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 4: The new CBA says they can't forgive those fines anymore. 190 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,439 Speaker 2: If you're still on your rookie deal, apparently you can 191 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 2: forgive those fines like Nick Bosa. The Niners could forgive 192 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 2: those fines. That guess that's the stipulation I just learned 193 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 2: looking at the Nick Bosa situation. But you're right, Buddha Baker, 194 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 2: on his second contract at the time made him the 195 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,959 Speaker 2: highest paid safety in the league. We all know that 196 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 2: he's still top seven or so. Reportedly doesn't want to 197 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 2: be the highest paid safety in the league, doesn't want 198 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 2: to eclipse the annual average earnings of a Derwin James, 199 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 2: but he wants a little bump and or some guaranteed 200 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 2: money in there. Well, something for the effort if they're 201 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 2: sticking around for the reset. And obviously we saw his 202 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 2: value to this team a year ago. All you had 203 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 2: to do was see the behind the scenes stuff with 204 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 2: hard knocks. So hey, I mean, what is the deadline? 205 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 2: I guess that would be my response, Darren. Do they 206 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 2: view the first week of camp the first preseason game? 207 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 2: What's ironical if you will, as I continue to bludge 208 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 2: in the English language here on Cardinals Underground, is that 209 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: after this last season ended, where did buddhas start in 210 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 2: citing what was Illin and Allen the twenty twenty two 211 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 2: Cardinals in a four win season, and he cited training 212 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 2: camp last year saying training camp last year wasn't good enough, Dan, 213 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 2: and we all saw it Week one against Kansas City. 214 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 2: You saw a Chiefs team that where the regulars like 215 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 2: Patrick Malmes and Travis Kelsey got a lot of reps 216 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 2: and got a lot of preseason action and the Cardinals 217 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 2: regulars did not, and we all know how that played out. 218 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 3: It's just interesting because it almost feels like comparing apples 219 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 3: to oranges. It's an entirely different coaching staff. I mean, 220 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 3: the schedule is different, and you know, I've had people 221 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 3: ask me, well, how can the schedule be so different. 222 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 3: It's necessarily not. But in terms of the old coaching 223 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 3: staff really liking to practice in the morning, this one's 224 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 3: more afternoon in terms of when you're going to have 225 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 3: meetings or all kinds of little things like that. So 226 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 3: it already is going to feel different. And I'm not saying, 227 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 3: you know, I don't think Jonathan Gannon looked and analyzed 228 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 3: not hm. This is what happened when Cliff Kingsbury was 229 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 3: the head coach. So this is why I'm going to 230 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 3: do it differently. I think this is just the way 231 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 3: Gannon wants to do things. So obviously, yes, you want 232 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 3: to look and compare it at how training camp was 233 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 3: last year compared to this year. It's hard to compare 234 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 3: because it's just a completely new staff and preference on 235 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 3: how you're doing things. I would like to see a 236 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 3: more active, more not aggressive in terms of being careless, 237 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 3: but a more aggressive training camp. That was something we 238 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 3: heard from players. That was something we heard from players 239 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 3: after Week one against the Chiefs, specifically on defense, was 240 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 3: that was really kind of the first time all the 241 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 3: starters had really played together, like we had, you know, 242 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 3: some things to work through. That's not what you want 243 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 3: to hear. So I am on the same page. I 244 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 3: would like to see a more aggressive style of attacking 245 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 3: training camp. 246 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 2: Think about it. The twenty twenty one Cardinals were a 247 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 2: playoff team, but they were very banged up in December 248 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 2: and January. So the mentality in camp last year, if 249 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 2: you hit rewind was hey, you know what, we're a 250 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 2: talented team. Let's just stay healthy be playing our best 251 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 2: ball come December. Look at the Rams team that won 252 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 2: at all. Guess what they were healthy at the end 253 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 2: of the season. That was the difference. That was the key, 254 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 2: And then you sort of went through the motions in 255 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 2: training camp. This is a vastly difference situation. As we 256 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 2: said to me the off season was the sixth Purge movie. 257 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,680 Speaker 2: I mean you just you went ahead and you just 258 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 2: took care. 259 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 4: Have you ever been five of those movies? 260 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 2: There have been five? 261 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 4: How would you know that. 262 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 2: Don't make me name I've seen zero. Don't make me 263 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 2: name them. Actually, all right, well, the kids are and 264 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 2: I've watched enough to know there's the Purge, the Purge Anarchy, 265 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 2: the First Purge, the Forever Purge, the Purge election year. 266 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 2: And then the sixth movie, which is Arizona Cardinals twenty 267 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 2: twenty three, the Purge. 268 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 3: That's like just as many Fast and Furious movies. I've 269 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 3: never seen those, but that's what it seems like. 270 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 2: Easy with the snark about fast and Furious. 271 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 4: Danny, I did mean to mention this to you. I 272 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 4: happened to get a chance to go see a movie 273 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 4: last weekend. 274 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 3: Off Oh I haven't seen it yet, no spoilers, And 275 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 3: I thought of you when I got comfortable in my seat, 276 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 3: and then the guy next to me sat down, reclined 277 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,199 Speaker 3: and did not take his shoes off, No, kicked his shoes. 278 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 4: Off for three hours. 279 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 3: Three he was barefoot, no socks. 280 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 4: No, I didn't see him when he came in. I'm 281 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 4: guessing you only had flip fops on. But still, come on, man, are. 282 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 3: Too comfortable in public these days? Oh boy, yeah, I'm 283 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 3: gonna even bring back bullying. That's what we need, bring 284 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 3: back bullying. My goodness, keep your shoes on, people. That's 285 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,119 Speaker 3: gonna end up in the open. 286 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 2: Isn't it. 287 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 3: As our producer Jim and one hundred gave a fist 288 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 3: bump in the air during that one. Oh, I'm never 289 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 3: gonna learn. 290 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 2: Let me give him a time code on that gym. 291 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 2: Let me help you out there with that. For Danny, it's. 292 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 4: Always funny to hear somebody like Danny talking on bring 293 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 4: back bully. 294 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 3: Don't bully me, but bully people into keeping their shoes on. 295 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 4: By the way, Q's mad that I'm making you the 296 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 4: two guard, and then. 297 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 3: What that means, I don't know. I look at people, 298 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 3: look I go into the mail bag. I like basketball, 299 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 3: I like, I'm not I don't like play in my 300 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 3: spare times. And I was looking, you're the mail bag 301 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 3: you like, but like you you put us in the 302 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 3: in the position numbers And I looked at cute and 303 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 3: I was like, I know point guard is one. I 304 00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 3: don't even know what the other numbers are. And here 305 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 3: I am put as a starter. But you were right 306 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 3: I could handle the trash. 307 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 4: Talk well, first of all, the guy who asked the 308 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 4: question put you as a starter. 309 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 3: I just was, well, I would be a starter. 310 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 2: So so you put her like as the Devin Booker right, 311 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 2: playing the two, Well that's what I am, and dealing 312 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 2: the trash. Two d book is known for two things, 313 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: playing the two and talking the trash. 314 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 3: Oh that's me. I'd be buckets all day. 315 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 2: Danny Buckets. That's all you need. There you go, that's 316 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 2: her new nickname. 317 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 4: Okay, boy, did I just drive this right off the road. 318 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 2: Once upon a time at Cardinals camp? Because I look 319 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 2: for a segue, Darren used to play in the media 320 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 2: basketball games, which no longer exists. So for this version 321 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 2: iteration of Cardinals camp, Jonathan Gannon, what do we expect 322 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 2: look into your crystal football? If you will give me 323 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 2: a forecast, I guess I'll start attention to detail. I 324 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 2: think attention to detail will be first and foremost. It's 325 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 2: part of the whole winning behavior formula that he espoused. 326 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 4: I mean, I think that that is a big thing, 327 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 4: Like a lot of people have already asked me, like, 328 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 4: will there be a cut down on the pre snap penalties, 329 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 4: the kind of mindless penalties that seem to crop up 330 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 4: with this team? 331 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 2: They'll better be because if you're not that talent, there 332 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 2: must be yes. 333 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 4: And how much we're are we gonna see that in camp? 334 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 4: I don't know how much you can tell in camp, 335 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 4: per Se. I mean, the thing about camp for me 336 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 4: is it is so wide open. You just were talking 337 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 4: about the purge, Paul. I mean, and I mentioned this 338 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 4: to you on the radio this week when you had 339 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 4: me on when you're filling in with Wolf and Luke. 340 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 4: But like, for instance, the defensive line, I mean, do 341 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 4: I think there's a couple guys on there that I 342 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 4: could point to and say, Okay, they're gonna be on 343 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 4: the team. Yeah, there probably are. But I can see 344 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 4: possibilities of every single, almost every single one of those 345 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 4: guys being on the roster or being cut depending on 346 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 4: what everybody else does. I think it's that close with 347 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 4: most of those guys, and it kind of talks about 348 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 4: where they are, for instance, as a defensive line. 349 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 2: All right, so here's a big difference. Well, agree or disagree. 350 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 2: A year ago, two years ago, if it came down 351 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 2: to a VET versus a rookie, that would always get 352 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 2: that roster spot. This time around, where this team is 353 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 2: currently positioned, if it's VET versus rookie, I'm guessing they 354 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 2: go with the young guy with the future and the upside. 355 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 3: Just off the top of my head, I think positions 356 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 3: for that to happen would be on the offensive line, 357 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 3: possibly a right tackle. If Paris Johnson Junior beats out 358 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 3: Kelvin Beachum wide receiver, Hollywood Browns, you're one. What's the 359 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 3: rest going to look like? Is Michael Wilson going to 360 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 3: be able to pick up the playbook and the speed 361 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 3: of the game and be able to be a starter 362 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 3: depending on his health. Is bj o'jalari going to be 363 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 3: able to start opposite of Xavin Collins as a pass rusher? 364 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 3: So there's a lot of questions. Maybe some of those 365 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 3: undrafted free agent rookies that the Cardinals signed. On the 366 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 3: defensive line, there's plenty of spots. There's more spots for 367 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 3: a rookie to earn a starting role than there aren't, 368 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 3: no doubt. 369 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 2: In fact, you know what, and Darren I got some 370 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 2: heat because when I was filling in on Wolf's show, 371 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 2: I said, you know what, I'm expecting some some big decisions. 372 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 2: I'm expecting some headline decisions to come out of this camp. 373 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 2: And then people gave me our time because I didn't 374 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 2: fill in the blank right, didn't name any names. But 375 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 2: I'll give you an example. In fact, I think we've 376 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 2: seen two big ones already. I firmly believe that Paris 377 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 2: Johnson Junior is the starting right tackle over Kelvin Beacham. 378 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 2: And I don't expect Zavin Collins to ever return to insidelinebacker. 379 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 2: I think he is an edge guy. So those are 380 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 2: two big decisions already happened. I do expect more. I'll 381 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 2: give you an example the twenty twenty draft class. What's 382 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 2: the future of Isaiah Simmons, Josh Jones, Lecky Fotu Orshard Lawrence. 383 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 2: Let's start with a defensive lineman. Those guys aren't decisively 384 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:02,400 Speaker 2: better than some of the younger guys. Then what if 385 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 2: you don't have plans for them beyond this year? Do 386 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 2: you look deal them somehow to get much in return? 387 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,640 Speaker 2: What about a Josh Jones. There's a lot of teams 388 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 2: who need a lot of help along the offensive line. 389 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 2: Guess what Cardinals might be deeper along the offensive line. 390 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 2: The most people realize is Josh Jones, someone who possibly 391 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 2: could bring a Day three pick in return if he's 392 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 2: just me given his walking papers. If Calvin beachm beats 393 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 2: him out as the swing tackle, let's just say, then what? 394 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 2: And then of course is Isaiah Simmons. What do they 395 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 2: think of Isaiah Simmons? Where does he truly fit in 396 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 2: this JG scheme? Most tend to think that this is 397 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 2: going to look a lot like Philly's defense a year ago. 398 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 2: In terms of the scheme. The big difference is that 399 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 2: you don't have the dudes along the defensive front that 400 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 2: the Eagles had, the Javon Hargraves, Fletcher Cox. You just 401 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 2: don't have that. You could go on and on and on, which, honestly, 402 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 2: I think brings up another big question, which is if 403 00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 2: you're Jonathan ghn and what's one of his big sayings, 404 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 2: adapt or die? Nobody blitzed less last year than Jonathan Gannon. 405 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 2: He didn't need two Eagles fans before you all get 406 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,119 Speaker 2: you know, over your boxers and a bunge out there. 407 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 2: They had seventy sacks, fifteen more than any other team. 408 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 2: He didn't need to bring numbers. But if half your 409 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 2: sacks walked out the door and Zach Allen and JJ Watt, 410 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 2: which they did, and you got a big question mark 411 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 2: at edge rusher, then Okay, to what degree are you 412 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 2: gonna need to dial it up? That's something that obviously 413 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 2: will be we won't know until week one because they're 414 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 2: not gonna show their hand and that thing. Everything will 415 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 2: be vanilla in the preseason games. But these are all 416 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 2: just big questions that are hanging out there. 417 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 3: I think what I'm expecting to see from Jonathan Gannon's 418 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 3: first training camp is high energy, shocker. I feel like 419 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 3: more off the field. I feel like there's gonna be 420 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 3: an emphasis in like team bonding, camaraderie. There's just been 421 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 3: so much talk from Gannon from general manager Money also 422 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 3: for it about not having an ego, putting the team first, 423 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 3: and the fact that it is a new team, even 424 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 3: with the holdover a new staff, trying to build the culture. 425 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 3: I would expect to see maybe a little bit more 426 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 3: of the players after practice, being around the hotel and 427 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 3: kind of doing more things around that nature. But on 428 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 3: the field, I expect to see high energy. You know, 429 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 3: nobody lagging that kind of stuff. 430 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 2: The other saying I've thrown out there is no allegiances, right, 431 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick, no days off. I just think JG and 432 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 2: MANI asin for no allegiances. You just everyone's gonna have 433 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 2: to earn that spot virtually. 434 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 3: Not only that, think of how many starters are coming 435 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 3: off an injury to some degree last year. So you 436 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 3: only have so much film if you're the new staff 437 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 3: to look at. So those players, those starters really need 438 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 3: to make a good impression. A lot of them are 439 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 3: entering a contract year. Hollywood Brown, Ronde, All Moore, James 440 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 3: Connor's been banged up, right, zach Ertz. There's a lot 441 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,360 Speaker 3: of players where even if you are coming in as 442 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 3: an expected starter, you didn't even have a full year 443 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 3: last year of tape for this coaching staff to look 444 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 3: at and evaluate. It's still an important year for you. 445 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 2: Think about it. Day before Cardinals show up on the 446 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 2: practice field for the first time. Cardinals Camp twenty twenty three, 447 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 2: a mini Monty Hall, if you will, as five players 448 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 2: are signed, including competition at center. Pat Elfline, a guy 449 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 2: who has started all fifteen games that he's been able 450 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: to play the last two years for Carolina at center, 451 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 2: has forty career starts at center, compared to Yelda Froholdt, 452 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 2: who has four career starts at center. Jeff Swain tight 453 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 2: end most recently last three years with it Titans, so 454 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 2: obviously very well known as an entity by Manti asin 455 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 2: Ford fifty seven career starts as a tight end. Based 456 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 2: on his receiving numbers, I'm presuming he's more of a 457 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 2: blocking tight end. Well, guess what if you're going to 458 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 2: live in eleven and twelve and thirteen personnels we've heard repeatedly, 459 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 2: then you're going to need more guys, more proving guys 460 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 2: at least because as currently constructing the tight end room, 461 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,159 Speaker 2: you're looking at one of those undrafted rookies being almost 462 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 2: an automatic based on the health and the viability of 463 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 2: zach Ertz. And then they added two USFL receivers and 464 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 2: another long snapper. I mean they've been held bent on 465 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 2: bringing competition to the long snapper rooms. 466 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 4: Well, you love to. 467 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 3: See Paul parsonally you you love to see it. 468 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 4: So to be fair, in the long snapper, they the 469 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 4: one of the ones they had on the roster Matt 470 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 4: Hembro ended up going on IR with a back injury. 471 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 4: So all they're doing is making sure that there's somebody 472 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 4: besides Aaron Burwer. But the great Jack Coco, who was 473 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 4: the one that was signed good name, was the long 474 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 4: snapper for the Packers last year, so he has experience. 475 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, so all right, Top three things you want to see? 476 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 2: Top three things? Maybe you're tracking once you get out there, 477 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 2: you get out on the grass, as coaches like to say, Okay, 478 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,120 Speaker 2: not just the players, the media as well. You're out 479 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,360 Speaker 2: on the grass, Danny and Darren. You want to get started. 480 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 2: Which one of you wants to lead off here? Top 481 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 2: three things you'd like to see? Well, or you're tracking. 482 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 4: I'm I'm gonna I'm gonna not take the low hanging 483 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 4: fruit of the Kyler situation because I do think that 484 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 4: that's going to take a while and I think we're 485 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 4: going to be back beyond training camp to really worry 486 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 4: about that. But what I am gonna say is, Okay, 487 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 4: can Clayton Tune or David Blauer, DRFT, Driss, Jeff driscoll 488 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 4: make any kind of headway on Colt McCoy. I think 489 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 4: Colt McCoy's your starter, But given the circumstances, given where 490 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 4: they are, given what they might want to look at, 491 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 4: can Clayton tune uh, you know, kind of Russell Wilson 492 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 4: his way into a depth chart place before we get 493 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 4: to the regular season, that would be one. Number Two 494 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 4: is going to be how this defense comes together, because 495 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,719 Speaker 4: I offensively, I think you can point to a lot 496 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 4: of places where you're like, Oh, that guy's probably gonna play, 497 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 4: that guy's probably gonna play. Defensively, I feel so wide 498 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 4: open in so many different ways, not only with scheme 499 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 4: but what players they might put out there. I want 500 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 4: to see exactly what we haven't seen so far once 501 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 4: they get into team work in open practice. And then 502 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 4: I guess three is for me is going to be 503 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 4: how did JG. Jonathan Gannon run this thing? You know, 504 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 4: there's he mentioned in one of his early press conferences 505 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 4: about how when somebody asked about training camp, how last 506 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 4: year in Philadelphia there were so many Eagles media that 507 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 4: were all over like, hey, you're running too light of 508 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 4: a camp and it's never gonna work. And obviously the 509 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 4: Eagles ended up making to the super Bowl. And I 510 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 4: wonder if that's Jonathan Gannon is big on not going 511 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 4: super hard in camp, and I thought it was interesting. Obviously, 512 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 4: Jonathan Gannon isn't there anymore. But I saw a tweet 513 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 4: the other day about the Eagles for like the first 514 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 4: eight days of training camp they're actually going one on 515 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 4: one off like they practice one day, no practice, practice, 516 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 4: no practice. Like that's really light. 517 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 3: Man. 518 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 4: We're a long way from two A days. 519 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 2: So yeah, now that Jonathan Gannon is his own guy, 520 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 2: is he going to emulate a Nick Sirianni when it 521 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 2: comes to that sort of approach to training camp or not? 522 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 2: I mean, if you e a Eagles have very few 523 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: decisions to make. Obviously, they just want to stay healthy 524 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 2: and be ready to go buy Week one Cardinals exactly 525 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 2: the opposite, So I would think you have to you 526 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 2: have to run a little tougher training camp, at least 527 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 2: get some more full contact, full pad, full go football, 528 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 2: one on one competitions to try and determine, all right, 529 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 2: who is worthy of the final fifty three. 530 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 3: He took a lot of the good ones, Darren. 531 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 4: I'm gonna jerk that way, so I think I was 532 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 4: gonna say much worse word there. 533 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 2: Let me write down the timecode in that one too. 534 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 2: These are good ones. It's a very productive start to 535 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 2: camp here in terms of drops, that's good. 536 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 3: I always forget your left handed I think offensively, just 537 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 3: kind of lumping them together knowing that this offense wants 538 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 3: to run the ball more, expecting to see maybe some 539 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 3: more twelve thirteen personnel. Who does that look like? Besides 540 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 3: it's James Connor in the backfield, and assuming you have 541 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 3: a healthy zach Ertz and if you don't, you know, 542 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 3: besides Trey McBride, who is your depth there? Really the 543 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 3: running back room is what intrigues me of how do 544 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,719 Speaker 3: they envision complimenting James Connor. Is it going to be 545 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 3: more of a committee approach. Is somebody going to take 546 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 3: a little bit of a lead as that second back. 547 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 3: That's kind of something I'm looking at offensively on those 548 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 3: those two spots cornerback is intriguing to me. I feel 549 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,880 Speaker 3: like at this point the starting spots are Antonio Hamilton 550 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 3: and Marco Wilson's to lose, but that is a possibility. 551 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 3: So that's a position on defense that I'm looking at 552 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 3: and hoping to see growth from them there and then 553 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 3: looking way ahead in training camp, because training camp, truly 554 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 3: the days are very long, and you have to go 555 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 3: day by day, so it feels like forever. But the 556 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 3: week of joint practices against the Minnesota Vikings, I would 557 00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 3: like to see intense practices where you're getting meaningful reps. Again, 558 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 3: it was a different training staff, a different team practicing 559 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 3: against the Titans last year, but only having one practice 560 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 3: there was only a few minutes. Honestly at most of 561 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 3: having the teams go against each other, it was really 562 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 3: two separate individual practices. I would like to see true 563 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 3: joint practices. Your starter is going up against their starters, 564 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,400 Speaker 3: getting a feel for those pre snap penalties and if 565 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 3: that's an issue, kind of getting a feel for offensive 566 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 3: and defensive line combinations. That's something I will be looking 567 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 3: forward to, is having those energetic and meaningful and productive 568 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 3: practices in Minnesota. 569 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 2: Man, that's hoping more productive than they were in Tennessee. Right, 570 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 2: it's got to be better, got to be better than 571 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 2: it was last year, and I think it will be. 572 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 2: And I think Cardinals are going to really value those 573 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 2: practices to get a final assessment a lot of the 574 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 2: regulars as to how they're going to stack the depth chart, 575 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,959 Speaker 2: who's going to make the final fifty three things I'm 576 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 2: watching effective immediately, presuming he's going to be out on 577 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 2: the field. Bjo Jalai, we didn't see him. This guy 578 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 2: could be a starting edge player for you week one 579 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 2: at Washington for all we know. Obviously, his pedigree is high. 580 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 2: He has an incredible skill set. First Team All SEC 581 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 2: the only player the last three years of his career 582 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,479 Speaker 2: in college ball who had more quarterback pressures than bjo 583 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 2: Jilari when number three overall Will Anderson. So I want 584 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 2: to see this guy. I also want to see because 585 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 2: there's differing Scautter reports on whether he's a liability against 586 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 2: the run or not. How stout is he in the 587 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 2: run game? Can he set the edge? Can he be 588 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 2: that dude? So we'll see about that. Speaking in the edge, 589 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 2: Zaman Collins, I mean, when you hear some of what's 590 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 2: said by teammates when they talk about Dennis Gardak, who 591 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,959 Speaker 2: says he'll be a dominant outside backer, about Zamon Collins, 592 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 2: When Josh Woods, who's new on the scene, he says 593 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 2: he's going to be an amazing player in this league. 594 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 2: Zamon Collins, Hello, you know what exactly does that mean? 595 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 2: Could just be the Cardinals? Poor man? Micah Parsons, where 596 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 2: exactly is that tracking? And then the guy I'm going 597 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 2: to keep an eye on just because he was entertaining 598 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 2: to watch last year and then we didn't see him 599 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 2: during the regular season because he got hurt at the 600 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 2: end of camp, Marquise Hayes, the guard out Oklahoma seventh 601 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 2: round pick last year, and he came in with a 602 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 2: nasty edge to him and he was good for sort 603 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 2: of like the Eagles practice schedule during camp. He was 604 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 2: good for a fight every other day. 605 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 3: Same with Will Hernandez. Yeah, the refrigerator he's been nicknamed. 606 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 2: Yes, So definitely be watching some of that and where 607 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,239 Speaker 2: exactly that's gonna go in camp. And then you know, 608 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 2: it wasn't for Darren. I'm like you, Danie, let's se 609 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 2: you know, we gang up on Darren and he took 610 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 2: Clayton tune. 611 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 4: Go ahead. 612 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 2: Definitely going to keep an eye in Clayton Tune. I mean, 613 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 2: come on, I'm not going to miss an opportunity to 614 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 2: fan the flames of a quarterback controversy in camp because 615 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 2: it gets us through August, even if it's for the 616 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 2: backup spot. 617 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 3: What about special teams? Who are you watching on special teams? 618 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 4: Paul oh doesn't watch special teams, does he? 619 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 2: Well, how can you not watch the punters? Come on now, 620 00:30:57,760 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 2: Matt Locke, come on, you're. 621 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 3: Gonna have to remind us the list of the seven 622 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,479 Speaker 3: out of fifteen players that you are going to keep 623 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 3: your eye on to see how they're doing training camp. 624 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 2: Brook. I'm gonna give you a couple right here, okay. 625 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 2: I Mauri de Mercado, the running back. 626 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 3: I love saying that name. 627 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 2: I love that guy out a tcuh. I'm bullish on him. 628 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 2: I think he's gonna make some noise in camp. Quavian White, 629 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 2: find him minute of American and cornerback. 630 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 4: You're picking all the short guys. 631 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 3: He's gonna short King Season Darren. 632 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 2: He can play. He's he's gonna be in that secondary. 633 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 2: That cornerback room is wide open. Best case scenario, you 634 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 2: have Marco Wilson. You again, Antonio Hamilton back to form. 635 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 2: He looks like you did last year in camp. Antonio Hamilton. 636 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 2: If you can get over the mental dress of being 637 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 2: older than his defensive coordinator by a year. Antonio Hamilton, 638 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 2: he's that guy. He's mentally tough. I think he can 639 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,719 Speaker 2: do it. And then you get Key Troll Clark who 640 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 2: looked good, a six runner out of Louisville. Garrett, what 641 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 2: do we know about the third round rookie? By the way, 642 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 2: Garrett Williams, Syracuse, What exactly is that a big question mark? 643 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 2: As of the startup Cardinals scamp? 644 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 4: I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if, like the other 645 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 4: ACL guys, he starts on the physically unable to perform list. 646 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 2: I mean, and again he can come off at any time. 647 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 4: Well if they put him on the right one. But 648 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 4: I'm assuming he will be on the one that can 649 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 4: come off at any time. There's a couple of different 650 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 4: pup lists, gotcha. I don't know that the thing is 651 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 4: is I would think cornerback is a position where not 652 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 4: that it's easy to come into the NFL and play 653 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 4: it right away, but it's easier than maybe some other spots. 654 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 4: But we are talking about a guy coming off a 655 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 4: major injury and then missed all of the offseason. So 656 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 4: is he going to be able to make an impact 657 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 4: even once he's healthy? You know, you got to be 658 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 4: able to see that. I'm curious to see where he is. 659 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 4: I don't think there's any question he's kind of in 660 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 4: the mix at some point how early he is. It 661 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 4: goes back to when you're talking about how wide open 662 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 4: the cornerback room is. It really is and for all 663 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 4: the reasons you just mentioned. 664 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 2: Well, as Kyle Vannenbosch said, the one thing you do 665 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 2: fear with the car defense is the combination of a 666 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 2: poor pass rush and inexperienced secondary. You can get away 667 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 2: with one or the other being below average, but if 668 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 2: you get the combination of not getting to the quarterback 669 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 2: and not having stout stellar coverage in the secondary, now 670 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 2: you could have a real problem on the defensive side 671 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 2: of the ball. So hopefully you get one or the other. 672 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 2: I put together a little list here, guys, and I 673 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 2: know I opened myself up to criticism. It's cool. I'm 674 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 2: used to it. Here on Cardinals Underground, brought to you 675 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 2: by Pacific Office Automation. These these are ways in which 676 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 2: the Cardinals might exceed expectations, because, let's face it, according 677 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 2: to Vegas, not a lot of expectations on a Cardinals 678 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 2: team that is gonna be missing its franchise quarterback. We 679 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 2: don't know. Is he gonna miss just some of camp, 680 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 2: is he gonna miss what? Anyway? All the question marks 681 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 2: out there we have no idea. But here's a few 682 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 2: different scenarios where I think the Cardinals maybe exceed those expectations. 683 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 2: For exams, New York Giants last year came off a 684 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 2: four win season, fixed the offensive line, won a playoff 685 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 2: game with By the way, they had fifty four million 686 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 2: dollars in dead cap money and they still were able 687 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 2: to win a playoff game. Jacksonville went from the number 688 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 2: one pick in the draft to turning around and then 689 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 2: winning a playoff game. So you never quite know in 690 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 2: the NFL. But if, for example, Monty Hall the new GM, 691 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,839 Speaker 2: if he strikes again with this rookie class with some 692 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 2: waiver claims at the end of camp, right, if the 693 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 2: rookies are half as productive as the rookie GM. Okay, 694 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 2: that's where I think the Cardinals. If this physical style 695 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:44,800 Speaker 2: of play, the violent brand of football that Jonathan Gannon 696 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 2: talks about, if that can make up for some of 697 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 2: the lack of talent on this roster and you're able 698 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:54,240 Speaker 2: to win some games just via physicality, which can happen, 699 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 2: then I think the Cardinals exceed expectations. They play the 700 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 2: pound game, for example, that run game, and it really 701 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 2: is effective. And if, for example, James Connor recaptures his 702 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 2: Pro Bowl form from two years ago, which I think 703 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 2: is very plausible. I think we've all seen and talked 704 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 2: to James Conner this offseason. He is fired up. Not 705 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 2: only is he in a contract year, but I think 706 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 2: he likes this offense. It really caters to a power 707 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 2: running back. And so you know a little pro tip. 708 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 2: If you're doing your fantasy football draft and James Connor 709 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 2: is still lingering on the board late in your draft, 710 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,839 Speaker 2: don't hesitate, I think, and don't forget two years ago. 711 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 2: How many touchdowns did he have in that that season? Right? 712 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 2: It was absurd? So eighteen, I tell you what if 713 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 2: if the Cardinals can get a Michael Wilson as a 714 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 2: big outside receiver combined with Hollywood Brown who was a 715 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 2: top seven and catches and receiving yards before he suffered 716 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 2: the foot injury Week six at Seattle. Plus you like 717 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,240 Speaker 2: your inside slot receivers and Rondel Moore and Greg Dortsch, 718 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 2: I think that receiver room if again Michael Wilson can 719 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,399 Speaker 2: be a reliable rookie receiver, which tends to be more 720 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 2: the exception than the norm in the NFL. And if 721 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 2: this team can learn the same lesson that Zamon Collins 722 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 2: learned on Day one and team meetings, right, you better 723 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 2: bring your attention to detail. Thou shalt not multitask by 724 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 2: eating your breakfast and partaking into team meeting, because that 725 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 2: means your attention is divided. If this team can eliminate, 726 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,879 Speaker 2: for example, leading the league in pre snap penalties, which 727 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 2: they did a year ago, and I think each of 728 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,720 Speaker 2: the last three years they were top five in penalties, 729 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 2: including two years ago they led the league in penalties, 730 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 2: if they can stop being their own worst enemy, Cardinals 731 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 2: beating Cardinals, then I think these are all manners in 732 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 2: which plus you get a surprise pass rusher, whether it's 733 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 2: Bgo Jallai, whether it's Zavon Collins, whether it's my J 734 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,800 Speaker 2: Sanders Cam Thomas. If one of these guys can somehow 735 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 2: break out a little bit and get you a double 736 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 2: Diggings in sacks. 737 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 4: Can I ask this question when you go through that list, 738 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 4: do they all have to happen to. 739 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 2: No, maybe just one or two of them, two or 740 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:08,280 Speaker 2: three of them, you know, that's all. I'm just giving 741 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 2: you some scenarios and give you a multiple choice, and 742 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 2: maybe you can check a few of these boxes. Then okay, 743 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 2: you know what you want a hot take? I know 744 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 2: you guys, are you know? 745 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 3: I love a good hot take. 746 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 2: Here's Rob Frederickson on The Big Red Rage. A couple 747 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:28,799 Speaker 2: of weeks ago. He said that no, DeAndre Hopkins might 748 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,720 Speaker 2: actually be beneficial for a Kyler Murray when he comes 749 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:36,240 Speaker 2: back in that, you're like, okay, fill in the blank. 750 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 3: There. 751 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 2: He was so prone to focusing and locking onto d 752 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 2: hop right feeding like you got a feeling like you 753 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 2: have to force balls to nuke, get him his requisite 754 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 2: number at targets. DeAndre Hopkins chirping in your ear hole 755 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 2: on the sideline. Okay, I'm open, I'm open, I'm open. Well, 756 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 2: what if all of a sudden, this just allows Kyler 757 00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:59,479 Speaker 2: Murray to truly run the offense, go through his reads 758 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,440 Speaker 2: and progression and just get the ball to the open receiver. 759 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 2: What if somehow it actually ends up being beneficial when 760 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 2: it comes to a defense that has to play the 761 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 2: Cardinals more honest, most defenses would come in like, well, 762 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 2: they're going to de hop first, second, and third, so 763 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 2: we're gonna double or at least give extra attention over 764 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 2: nuke and then guess what it becomes even more difficult 765 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 2: to get the ball to Deander Hopkins. Well, now you 766 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,360 Speaker 2: don't have that luxury. Maybe it's not as big a 767 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 2: tell for defense as when they formulate their game plan. 768 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 3: I do think that is a pro I think there's 769 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 3: pros and obviously cons of losing a player of hops 770 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,879 Speaker 3: caliber and his skill of he was reliable. It didn't 771 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 3: matter which quarterback was out on the field for the Cardinals. 772 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 3: You knew that you could go when you could trust 773 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 3: throwing it up and he would come down with that 774 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,839 Speaker 3: contested ball. But I do think there are things that 775 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 3: could still be positive. You talking about not necessarily feeling 776 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 3: like the ball has to be fed through him. I 777 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 3: think when I did a big red Rage with Rob 778 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 3: Fredericks in a couple of weeks ago, wasn't necessarily talking 779 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 3: about dere Hopkins. He was just saying in generally talking 780 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,319 Speaker 3: about leadership in general. He had a good point of 781 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,760 Speaker 3: you know, the Cardinals have lost a lot of veterans, 782 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 3: not just DeAndre Hopkins, AJ Green, JJ Watt, right throughout 783 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 3: the league, and just because you're a veteran doesn't necessarily 784 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 3: mean you are a good leader. And I do think 785 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 3: that even when Hopkins was in the locker room. I 786 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,800 Speaker 3: think he was one of those players where people probably 787 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 3: just knew what he added to the game and kind 788 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 3: of watched and saw how he did things and kind 789 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 3: of led by example in that sense. I don't I'm 790 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 3: not really sure how local he was as a leader, 791 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 3: but I do think that, you know, it's it's kind 792 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 3: of a fresh start for players to step up and 793 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 3: kind of have a new culture in there. And again, 794 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 3: that's not just on not having DeAndre Hopkins in the 795 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 3: locker room. That's a whole bunch of changes. But you 796 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 3: bring up a good point is while you're obviously losing 797 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 3: a great talent and not having DeAndre Hopkins on this roster, 798 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 3: there are still pros that you can find from the situation. 799 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,480 Speaker 4: It was a little funny to me when I saw 800 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 4: a tweet as Titans camp started. DeAndre Hopkins had his 801 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 4: introductory press conference to the Tennessee media, and he let 802 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 4: everybody know that Mike Rabel had already given him permission 803 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 4: to miss the first few days of training camp so 804 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 4: he could tend to some personal things for real. 805 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:21,400 Speaker 2: Yeah really, yeah, Okay, Well, there's no excuses from the Titans, 806 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 2: Mike Rabel and the offensive coordinator. They're both very familiar 807 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 2: with d Hot from their Houston days, so there should 808 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:34,200 Speaker 2: be no surprises. And you know what, look, sometimes you 809 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 2: have to make allowances when you previously had the worst 810 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:38,839 Speaker 2: receiver room in the NFL. 811 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:39,840 Speaker 4: This is true. 812 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 2: You needed talent, so they were willing to pay the 813 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 2: price and accommodate the player. So, okay, we'll see and look, 814 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 2: when you look at the Cardinals offense, you know, I'm 815 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 2: just gonna go to a couple of things. I'm gonna 816 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 2: go to what zach Ertz told Wolf and Luke in 817 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,719 Speaker 2: the offseason in this very studio where he's They were 818 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 2: asked how different is the current offense Drew Petsing, and 819 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 2: his response was, zach Ertz, it couldn't be more different 820 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 2: than what Cliff Kingsbury ran where we were in the 821 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 2: gun every play, and so you know, zach Ertz went 822 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:14,840 Speaker 2: on to say, this is going to be a Kubiak 823 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 2: style offense like Houston ran back in the day. Interesting, Okay, 824 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,280 Speaker 2: if you're looking for more on that, the Red Sea Report, 825 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 2: Drew Stanton went into great detail as to what that 826 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 2: might look like, what exactly a Kubiak style offense is, 827 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 2: and it has a lot of connections to the West 828 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 2: Coast offense, getting the ball out quick, a lot of 829 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 2: short passes yards after the catch, a lot of play action, 830 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,760 Speaker 2: and then we get to the quarterback under center. Because 831 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 2: maybe the most telling as we get ready to start 832 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 2: training camp in daily updates with a coach Jonathan Gannon, 833 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:50,920 Speaker 2: maybe the most telling interview of the entire offseason was 834 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,880 Speaker 2: about twenty four hours after JG was hired and he 835 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:57,560 Speaker 2: sat down with Peter King. This was a few days 836 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 2: before he introduced Drew Petsing, who at that press conference 837 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 2: with his head coach and good friend Jonathan Gannon, Petsing 838 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 2: gave Gannon a hard time about sharing a little too 839 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,279 Speaker 2: much with the media. Well some of those comments, if 840 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 2: you revisit him, we're all about Kyler Murray, and JG 841 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 2: said to Peter Gang first off, if Kyler isn't here, 842 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 2: I don't take the job. But then he went on 843 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 2: to say the offense will look much different that the 844 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,160 Speaker 2: key is we got to take him to another level, 845 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:26,400 Speaker 2: unleash Kyler's full skill set, and the key is putting 846 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 2: Kyler under center more, not operating nearly so much out 847 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 2: of the shotgun. We're not going to put him in 848 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 2: the gun all the time. JG continued, I'll tell you 849 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 2: that much. We'll have two significant offenses with his skill set. 850 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 2: The way to take pressure off the quarterback in the 851 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 2: O line is to put him under center. That's the 852 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 2: missing piece because when you're in the gun all the time, 853 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 2: you don't make the defense defend certain play types. Now 854 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 2: when you get him under center, the defense has to 855 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:54,000 Speaker 2: defend a lot more play types. So there's really two 856 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,920 Speaker 2: offenses I see us using. And how many defensive linemen 857 00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 2: over the last couple of years for the Cardinals would 858 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 2: tell us that when the offense, the opposing offense on 859 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 2: a key third and four would get into the gun, 860 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 2: the defensive line would say yes, because now that cuts 861 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 2: in half how many potential plays can be run and 862 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 2: really narrows down the thinking and decision making of a 863 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 2: defensive lineman that they can play it differently. So Deerra 864 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 2: Drew Stanton break it down. This Cardinal scheme will have 865 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 2: a lot in common with the Kyle Shanahan because the 866 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:33,240 Speaker 2: whole Kubiak style offense comes from Mike Shanahan. Kyle Shanahan 867 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,319 Speaker 2: runs that's you know obviously, and what is he known 868 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 2: for in San Francisco, and that in his offense, always 869 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 2: keeping a defense on its heels, never running the same 870 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,719 Speaker 2: thing twice, or maybe it's the same play out of 871 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 2: a totally different personnel group trying to quote UNGAP a 872 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 2: defense with a power run scheme. So very very curious 873 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 2: as to what exactly it'll look like. And once again 874 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 2: I don't expect to really see in the preseason games. 875 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 2: But Week one at Washington, by the way, I have 876 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:06,360 Speaker 2: Washington already one and oh on the season after it 877 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 2: was additioned by subtraction, they got rid of Daniel Snyder, 878 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:10,359 Speaker 2: So now I give him a win for that. 879 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 4: So that's dangerous because you just say that out of context. 880 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:15,120 Speaker 4: You say they want to know and they open with 881 00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 4: the Cardinals, and I thought that that's kind of a 882 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 4: I don't know if you want. 883 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 2: To go there there one and oh going into week 884 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 2: one is what I'm trying. I guess I should make that. 885 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 4: Are they getting eighteen decision? 886 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 3: Have his fun Darren big win for right there? 887 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 2: Maybe? Okay? So what do you think in terms of 888 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 2: last question as you wrap up this edition of Cardinals Underground, 889 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 2: do we have any sense as to the fight policy 890 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 2: from Jonathan Gannett. 891 00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 3: That's a good question. I don't he I mean, look, 892 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 3: he spent some time in Philly. I would imagine he's 893 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 3: okay with a little a little here and there, not 894 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 3: necessarily a punch, right. We don't want breaking a hand 895 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 3: on a helmet or giving anyone concussion or broken nose 896 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 3: or anything like that. You know, no broken fingers. But 897 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,320 Speaker 3: I think maybe, you know, especially on days where it 898 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 3: just kind of feels like nobody might be focused or 899 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 3: kind of you know, need some more energy. It's like 900 00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:12,440 Speaker 3: kind of in hockey, right, you have like p investigators, Like. 901 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:13,799 Speaker 4: I'm has Wolf not investigated this yet? 902 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 2: He texted me last night? 903 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:15,760 Speaker 4: Did he really? 904 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 2: He texted me he said, you know, of course, you 905 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 2: know once again Wolf doing. By the way, Ron wolf Ley, 906 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 2: you asked me during vagation to fill in on a 907 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 2: Thursday Friday Monday, we do the Thursday show, we do 908 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 2: the Big Red Rage Thursday night, and then by eight 909 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 2: o'clock that night, I'm getting a text from your producer 910 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 2: that you're calling in sick on Friday, and then you 911 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:36,160 Speaker 2: called in sick on Monday. 912 00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 4: That's just wrong. 913 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,359 Speaker 2: It's not what I signed up for. What's going on 914 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 2: over there, but if Wolf would have been listening to 915 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:43,840 Speaker 2: his own show on Monday, because he wasn't there. We 916 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 2: talked about this at length that Robert Sala had to 917 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:48,880 Speaker 2: address the fact there were a couple of fights at 918 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 2: Jets camp, and his policy is players will be players. 919 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 2: It's not out of disdain for your teammate. Guys are 920 00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,799 Speaker 2: trying to make the team. Emotions will boil over. I 921 00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 2: just have one rule within the scheme of things is 922 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,399 Speaker 2: that no punches. No punches because the moment you throw 923 00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 2: a punch, the official will throw a flag. And we 924 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,439 Speaker 2: don't want to eat broken hands or fingers like you said. 925 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:13,719 Speaker 3: Okay, and it's not always personal, just real quick. I mean, 926 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 3: think of one last year was Isaiah Simmons and DeAndre 927 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 3: Hopkins who kind of got in each other's faces. Those 928 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:20,320 Speaker 3: two are best friends off the field. 929 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 4: It's not personal, okay. But I've got a how do 930 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,359 Speaker 4: you define fight? Because if there's no punches, then it's 931 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:29,239 Speaker 4: not a fight. 932 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 2: He saying the way he did he did define it. 933 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 2: He said, I guess he has seven kids, Robert Sala. 934 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 2: He said, it's the same thing I tell my kids, 935 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,959 Speaker 2: which is below the neck, above the waist. Oh my gosh, 936 00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 2: meaning you know, you can get at a tussle and 937 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,799 Speaker 2: get out. You can grab some jersey, maybe you can 938 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:47,680 Speaker 2: get a chicken wing in there, maybe you get a 939 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 2: little bit of a I don't know, but last year 940 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:55,440 Speaker 2: the heavyweight battle we saw last year was Willharnandez and 941 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 2: JJ Watt. 942 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:59,799 Speaker 4: Obviously yes, which is still I still keep thinking about 943 00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 4: JJ Watt getting shoved down by Will Hernanaz jumping up, 944 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 4: ticked off, rushing Will Hernana's stationary and bouncing off him. 945 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:12,360 Speaker 2: It was like it's like a brick wall. It's like 946 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:16,759 Speaker 2: a pass ball hitting the backstope. That was once again 947 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 2: though with a lot of new faces. It can't better 948 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:21,399 Speaker 2: be sure you have a full skin report on who 949 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 2: you're going up against. Remember a good fifteen years ago 950 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 2: Tom Pestock, Oh yeah, Golden Gloves boxer, MMA champ. He 951 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,839 Speaker 2: was like a jiu jitsu black belt and the word 952 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,320 Speaker 2: in camp was do not do not fight Tom Pestock 953 00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 2: back up left guard. Well, I guess a backup D 954 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:44,120 Speaker 2: lineman didn't get the memo and things got a little 955 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:47,720 Speaker 2: testy after the whistle and in a quick one, two 956 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 2: three down went the d lineman. Immediately he got dropped 957 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:57,000 Speaker 2: by Tom Pestock. And by the way, uh, Sasha, what 958 00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 2: is the guy Bearwood Baron Cohen? What is his name? Now, 959 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:01,800 Speaker 2: he's a pro wrestler, Tom Pestock. 960 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:09,040 Speaker 4: So so, anyway, all these former Great Cardinals training camp 961 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:10,319 Speaker 4: guys should. 962 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:11,800 Speaker 3: Let everyone know that we're still going to have Cardinals 963 00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 3: on the ground during training camp and Cardinals Cover too 964 00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:16,839 Speaker 3: with Craig Reelou Why don't we mostly going to be 965 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:19,320 Speaker 3: posting those though on Wednesdays?
