The Cardinals gentlemen played good football on 14 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: Sunday until they didn't. And it's often said, it's not 15 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: how you start, it's how you finished. And the Cardinals 16 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 1: unable to finish off the Chargers, losing twenty five twenty 17 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: four to drop to four and eight as we enter 18 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,119 Speaker 1: the bye week, but no off time for US here 19 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 1: on the Cardinals Read Sea Report presented by seat Geek 20 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: your ticket to Great Seats. As we look back at 21 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 1: what happened on Sunday, Cardinals led at the end of 22 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: the first quarter at a seventeen fourteen lead at a halftime, 23 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: but with thirteen thirty one to go in the game, 24 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: after the Cardinals score to take a lead twenty four 25 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 1: to seventeen, the offense failed, the defense unable to come 26 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: up with one more stop, and here we are, losers 27 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,960 Speaker 1: of two in row and four of their last five. 28 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: And for you, Kyle, when you look back at those 29 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: sixty minutes in week twelve, what stands out to you 30 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: the most? Well, the hard part for me is that 31 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: there was a lot of good things coming out of 32 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: this game. You know, you came out, you physically dominated 33 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: both sides of the line of scrimmage. You know, this 34 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: offensive line, with all they had to deal with in 35 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: the past week, came out and opened up some huge 36 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: run lanes. James Conner looked like vintage James Connor, running 37 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: the ball hard, and the defensive line was disruptive. They 38 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: controlled the line of scrimmage. Austin Eckler, who can you 39 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,119 Speaker 1: know sometimes when when he is rolling, he can beat 40 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: you himself. Got nothing going on the ground. They pretty 41 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: much abandoned their run game, and and Justin Herbert had 42 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:28,639 Speaker 1: you know, he was under duress for a good part 43 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 1: of the game. So m you know, the hard party 44 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: is when you you play. I mean the players played hard. 45 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: They went out there and played their butts off. You 46 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't know, if you know, if they're sitting with one 47 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: loss or they're sitting with seven losses coming into this game. 48 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: They they played like they are fighting for a playoff opportunity, 49 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: and they fought. You know, the thing that continues to 50 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 1: bite this team and the butt is just a lack 51 00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:01,119 Speaker 1: of execution um situational football. Because they had a lot 52 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: of opportunities to put this game away and they just 53 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: couldn't on offense execute a four minute drill in that 54 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, could not get a first down when they 55 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: needed it the most, and like you said, the defense 56 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: just couldn't come up with a stop when they had 57 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: to three straight three and outs. After taking the league 58 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: twenty four seventeen, drew and that's what everyone is going 59 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: to remember the most. Kyle's point, Yeah, there was a 60 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 1: lot of positives in this game, a lot of good performances. 61 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 1: Yet you are judged by wins and losses, and this 62 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:33,119 Speaker 1: team does not have as many wins as they do losses. 63 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: And you look at how that game finished, the inability 64 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: to get at least eight first down to take more 65 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: time off the clock. Yeah, I mean that was a 66 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: very winnable game from the onset, right. You saw that 67 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: a team come out, they executed their game plan on 68 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: the first half. They did a great job of establishing 69 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: the run. James Connor did look like the James Connor 70 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: we expected to see all season long, the guy that 71 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: we saw last year of putting his head down, running 72 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: between the tackles, and that's what allowed everything to open 73 00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: up that first half. And you want to be able 74 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: to on that in the second half. That's what we 75 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: saw last year, a team that could close out games 76 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: in a four minute situation. We're going to line up 77 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: and we're going to run the football and you're not 78 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: going to stop us. And they weren't able to do 79 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: that for a multitude of reasons, and that's why they 80 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: ended up losing. It's a full sixty minute game and 81 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: they were all the way in the driver's seat till 82 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: the very end until fifteen seconds left and weren't able 83 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: to get it done. And unfortunately, you look back and 84 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: you are going to highlight those three three and outs 85 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: that really put you behind the eight ball, even the 86 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: one I think there was two nineteen left and they 87 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: gave them ball back with the two minute that's just 88 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: an excusable from a players standpoint that it's excusable from 89 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: a coaching standpoint. And again, you give this offense a 90 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: young quarterback and all of that that much time left 91 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 1: with the timeout still at his disposal, and you just 92 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: feel like, oh man, what's going to happen? And this 93 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 1: is a team that didn't go out and win a 94 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: football game. They just tried to hold on for dear 95 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 1: life and not lose one. It was officially a thirty 96 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 1: one second possession, but you talk ab the two minute 97 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: warning and then they went and punted the football. So 98 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: really the offense on the field fly nineteen seconds on 99 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,799 Speaker 1: that second to last drive. Just not executing in crunch time, 100 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: which Kevin Beacham talked about post game. I think in 101 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: the most critical moments of the game, not executing and 102 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: not putting us as in a position to close the 103 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 1: game out. We had two opportunities there in the fourth quarter, 104 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 1: I think we're four minutes to go, and then a 105 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: game before the two minute warning. Well, we had a 106 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: chance to close the game out offensively. And I think 107 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: that's what's most as hardened about this, the lack of 108 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: positive yards or a strong first down on those last 109 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: two drives that Beacham is talking about. Drewid sets up 110 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: second and long and then there's a drop or a 111 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: misplay and now you're looking at third and long and 112 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: you're going backwards instead of forwards. And then, whether you 113 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: believe it or not, the idea of momentum everything pointed 114 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: in the Chargers direction. Yeah, it shifts. And look, if 115 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: you have one three and out, so be it. When 116 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: you have three three and outs, that's problematic. And that's 117 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: unfortunately what contributed to them losing is not being able 118 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: to close that game out. And you know, because it's 119 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: probably fresh in everyone's mind of that Seattle game, you 120 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: think about what they did on first down, the play 121 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: action of putting the ball in genosmisshand, slipping the mount 122 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: in the flats, and all of a sudden you flip 123 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: field position and you do all these things again. You 124 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: can sit back and you can judge in second guess 125 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: everything because it didn't work. You want to be able 126 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: to establish a run. You'd had establish the run to 127 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: be able to do that, and you would love to 128 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: be able to just get it rolling or be able 129 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 1: to do some different things, and it just didn't work out. 130 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: That being said, that's the NFL. That's what it comes 131 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: down to. The margin of air is so small. All 132 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: of these games are coming down to a player or 133 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: two and the last couple of minutes in the game, 134 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: and unfortunately, this team has not been able to step 135 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: up to the challenge. Twenty five, twenty four Cardinals lose 136 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: the Chargers. Let's hear from quarterback Kyler Murray on what 137 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,160 Speaker 1: didn't happen on Sunday. Just knew where you were gonna win. Now, 138 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: you know, feel like you're gonna win the game. You 139 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: know we played well and so fourth quarter in those 140 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 1: drives where we needed the most, we didn't make it happen. 141 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: And let's you know, that's all us always comes down 142 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: to a handful of plays, Kyle. And then you look 143 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: at the plays that the Cardinals did not get, the 144 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: fumble recovery, the interception, and then the Cardinals, on the 145 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: other hand, did fumble the ball, did have an interception, 146 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: your minus two and the turnover battle even though you 147 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: still had an opportunity to win that ball game. The 148 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: Cardinals missed two opportunities based off of replay review. Yet 149 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: at the same time, you cannot turn the ball over yourself. Now, 150 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: you're exactly right. That's a story of so many football games, 151 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: especially like Drew was talking about, I think this NFL season, 152 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: there's a record for games that are one or lost 153 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: by one score margins, and you just got to be 154 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: good in those closing moments. I mean this team, I 155 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: mean even coming out of the half, you're looking at 156 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: a James Connor eighteen yard run of Kyler Murray. It 157 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: was Kyler Murray eighteen James Connor twenty and you're like, man, 158 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: there's they can do what they want against this defense. 159 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: And they could for three quarters and then they score 160 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: a go ahead touchdown thirteen thirty one and they don't 161 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: get a first down in their next four possessions. And 162 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: to me, the key, and we talked about this last 163 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: week with this team is staying ahead of the chains. 164 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, through three quarters they were averaging 165 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: about six yards on first down, and then their last 166 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: four possessions they were in second and eleven, second, nine, 167 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: second and ten, second and ten, and then you're chasing, 168 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: and then you're you're unable to execute your full offense 169 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: and really control the pace of the game like you 170 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: had the rest of the game. And whatever happened at 171 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: that point, it just kind of snowballed because the defense 172 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: couldn't get a stop, offense couldn't get the first downs in, 173 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: and the Chargers took advantage of it. Cardinals outgained the 174 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: Chargers three hundred and sixty six to three hundred and eleven, 175 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: with Kyle Murray counting for two hundred and forty seven 176 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: of those yards, one ninety one through the air, fifty 177 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: six on the ground. Head coach Cliff Kingsbury on QB one, 178 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 1: I thought lay at a high level if that was 179 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: really efficient, uses legs when he had to act in 180 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: the passing game for the most part, and so gave 181 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: us a chance to win. Just like I said there 182 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: at the end, we gotta be better closing out the game. 183 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: Saw for the first time DeAndre Hopkins and Hollywood Brown 184 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 1: on the field for the first time this season, will 185 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: touch more on that as we continue here on the 186 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: Cardinals Red Sea Report. But you're getting healthier at your 187 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: wide receiver spots. But then again, you didn't have a 188 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: rondel More, you didn't have Greg Dortch. We learned over 189 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: the weekend, Drew that DJ Humphries is going to miss 190 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: the rest where it was placed on ir learned on 191 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: Monday he's going to miss the rest of the season 192 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: with a back issue. So you're getting some pieces, but 193 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: then at the same time, you're still losing pieces. Yeah. 194 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: I mean, look, the two most important pieces are your 195 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: quarterback obviously, your franchise quarterback, and your marquee wide receiver 196 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: and DeAndre Hopkins. I think you saw somebody like Hollywood 197 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 1: Brown that could fill a role to a certain extent. 198 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: But over the last course of this season, DeAndre Hopkins, 199 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: I believe is leading the league in yards or catches 200 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 1: or you know, he is a bona fide different maker, 201 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: where Hollywood Brown is a great wide receiver, and getting 202 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: them both on the field together is huge. But you're 203 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: going to have some attrition. Obviously, the offensive line is 204 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: notable how much they have been decimated. Guys like Ron 205 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: Dulmore that have been in and out of the lineup. 206 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: Greg Dortsch, again, you want to be able to get 207 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: some of these guys practice time because that's where you 208 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: create continuity, that's where you make corrections, that's where you 209 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: do all these things. And we've talked about this team 210 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: in the past of the importance of those things and 211 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: how it shows itself on the field right wrong or indifferent, 212 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: good or bad when they are doing things the way 213 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: they should be doing it. Again, this was a team 214 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: that went out there in a very winnable game and 215 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: did a lot of really good things. But you've got 216 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: to go out and finish the game, and that's offensively 217 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: and defensively. So you go into the bye week now, 218 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: Kyle four and eight. Kingsbury has given the team the 219 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: entire week off, which he has done in years past, 220 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: So this is an opportunity now, one to get healthy 221 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 1: or at least try to get healthy for some of 222 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,079 Speaker 1: those players that have been out Byron Murphy among them. 223 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens with him when the team reconvenes 224 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: a week from Monday. And then also to work on 225 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: some things because you do have five games left, five 226 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: opportunities to put some good film out there, whether it 227 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: means anything this season or not as far as the 228 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: playoff picture is concerned. But you're fighting for your job, 229 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 1: whether here or somewhere else. No, you're absolutely right again. 230 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: I think the thing I loved about this game was 231 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: just the physicality, the mentality, the energy that the Cardinals 232 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: played with on both sides of the ball. You know, 233 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: the issue continues to be execution, and it's something you know, 234 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: whether it be the plays called or just the players 235 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: and how they execute that needs to improve going forward. 236 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: You know this last clip about Kyler, Kyler played a 237 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: good game. He was decisive, He got the ball out quickly, 238 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: spread the ball around early, you know, bought time with 239 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: his legs, and you know, you wouldn't know that he 240 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: was coming off of a hamstring injury. He's still got 241 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: some things that he needs to work on. His down 242 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: the field accuracy is still off a little bit. It's 243 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: not where it was in the past. He tried to 244 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 1: work at deep to Hollywood Brown a couple of time 245 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: and didn't give them a chance because the ball was 246 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: out of bounds. You did still have to burn a 247 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: time out so that the playclock didn't run out. You know, 248 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: those things we need to clean up here these last 249 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: five weeks. Which you want to see going forward, both 250 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: offensively and defensively, is a complete game, because that is 251 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: one thing we haven't seen. I mean, we've won some games, 252 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: we've played well, but there's still stretches throughout the course 253 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: of a game where there's just that inconsistency with the execution. 254 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: You know, early in the season, it was early in games, 255 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: and now recently it's been the you know, late in 256 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,839 Speaker 1: the games, just falling off a little bit, particularly these 257 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: last two games. So what you just need to see 258 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: is that execution through four quarters. It is a four 259 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: quarter game, and the Cardinals on Sunday only played three 260 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: quarters or a little bit more than three quarters. They lose. 261 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: Twenty five twenty four Episode fifty Other Day Pash podcast 262 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: featuring Cardinals radio analysts Ron Woofley, is available now.

The run game first time, 266 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 1: I think really all season, we saw James Conner look 267 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: like James Conner from a year ago. We'll touch on 268 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: what he did, but the offensive line did despite missing 269 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: four starters on the line. As we continue here on 270 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: the Cardinals Red Seat Report presented by seat Geek Your 271 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 1: ticket to great Seats, Craig Railer, Drew Stan and CoV Anabosh. 272 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: Here on the Arizona Cardinals Ray Doo Network hand off 273 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 1: James Conner running to the left out of hole twenty 274 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: five thirty thirty five forty ragged down at the forty one. Boy, 275 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: that's as big of a hole as we've seen opened 276 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: up with the Cardinals this year. On the run, Games 277 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: Conner the long back, Murray hands it to him off 278 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: the left side or a price at the fifty forty 279 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 1: five forty out of the thirty seven of the Chargers 280 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: twenty more yards on the ground. Sante Samuel Junior came 281 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: off the cornerback and suddenly you realized that he was 282 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: one on one with James Connor on the outside. He 283 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: thought he was gonna get his doorbell rung. James Connor 284 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: went right by him with a nice little joke. Eighteen yards, eight, 285 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: seven eights and six the first five carries for James Connor, 286 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: who finished with a season best one hundred twenty yards 287 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: on the ground. His first one hundred yard game with 288 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals, and it just was phenomenal the first 289 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: three quarters and then for whatever reason, he and the 290 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: rest of the offense unable to get a first down 291 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: those last three possessions. But we can talk about that 292 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: run game and you love stats, Drew, and I'm gonna 293 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: give you that stat a thirty or more Russian attempts. 294 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 1: They Cardinals rushed at thirty four times, yet unable to 295 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: come away with a win. They are now one and 296 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: one when they get that thirty Russia attempts mark this season. Yeah, well, 297 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: you know, again, the game plan to come out and 298 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: establish the run the way that they did, to impose 299 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: their will early on it and kind of set the 300 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: tempo of what the game is going to be. I 301 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: love that approach because that just opens everything up, especially 302 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: when you have success where you can get those chunk 303 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: runs and you can consistently establish these runs and get 304 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: it going, and really that helps a running back get 305 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: in the flow of the game. Right. You look at 306 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: some of these things and the first fifteen Cliff does 307 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: a great job of trying to distribute to all the 308 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: different things. But the mentality of the approach this week 309 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: was vastly different. I thought it was fantastic from the 310 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: standpoint of that because you want to see James Connor 311 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 1: get going. I've talked about the emotion that he brings 312 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: to this the emotional leader of setting that tempo, that 313 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: blue collar mentality that he has, and that just lent 314 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: into what this team can be and it opens up 315 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 1: the passing game, and really that's something that you want 316 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: to see moving forward because he has the capability of 317 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: doing that. You saw guy looked vastly different than we 318 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: saw against the San Francisco forty nine ers, and maybe 319 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: because he just smelled blood in the water, you know, 320 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: he could he understood that there was a lot to 321 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: be had out there, and everybody was well aware of 322 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: them averaging I think five and a half yards per 323 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: carry is what they were giving up. So a running 324 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: back salivating at that point that you've got to be 325 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: able to continue to do that against better football teams. 326 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: And you've got to be able to do that because 327 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: then it also dictates coverage of what you're going to see. 328 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: And then you add in the dimension of Kyler Murray 329 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: some of the runs. The creativity in the run game 330 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: I think was fantastic. Of what you're seeing and some 331 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: of the things they're doing, because it's going to then 332 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: be able to build off of that then next week 333 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: of what you put on film with the play action game, 334 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: with all of these things, and that's really where you 335 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: want to build, having these pieces finally in place because 336 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: they have not been there all season, of getting the 337 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: arrow pointing up for a week to week basis. As 338 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: you close this thing out. It was against one of 339 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: the worst run defenses in the league. At the same time, 340 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: you have to execute, and we hear James Connor gets 341 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: better as the game was on, But Kyle, we saw 342 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: James Connor just come out of the gates and credits 343 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: to the offensive line, which they do want to address. 344 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: But James Connor able to find the holes, find the 345 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,479 Speaker 1: openings and not just get to the second level. He 346 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 1: was getting to the third level a lot in that 347 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: first half. Yeah, the run lanes were huge, and to 348 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 1: Drew's point, the creativity of the run game, there was 349 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: very few run plays that were blocked the same. I 350 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: mean there was polers go in all directions. Sometimes you'd 351 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,919 Speaker 1: log the inmand on the last screamage. Sometimes you'd kick 352 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 1: him out. They did a good job of mixing it up. 353 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 1: Steve Hyden stepped in as a run game coordinator, and 354 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: you know, it just it looked different. It looked like 355 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: they were much more confident. And again, a tremendous credit 356 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: to the guys that are filling in on that offensive 357 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,120 Speaker 1: line because they did. You know, they did a fantastic 358 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: job of opening up holes. And you know, oftentimes it 359 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 1: looked James Connor fought and ran through arm tackles play 360 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: after play, but oftentimes he wasn't touched until a linebacker 361 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: or even a safety came up into the boxing and 362 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,239 Speaker 1: filled a hole. So you know, it was something that 363 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: the Cardinals saw. But you know, this was one area 364 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: of the game where through three quarters they did a 365 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: fantastic job of executing, getting a body on a body 366 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: and just letting James Connor run as hard as you 367 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: can and create with the rest. Yeah, and I think 368 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 1: sometimes right when you're trying to get into the flow 369 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: of the game for an offensive alignment, it's so much 370 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: easier in the run game because you're coming off the ball, 371 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,199 Speaker 1: you know your assignment. In the pass game when you 372 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 1: got to sit there and you're kind of protecting sometimes 373 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,919 Speaker 1: these younger guys that are sitting there, they're more nervous 374 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: about trying to pass protect. I don't want to give 375 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: up a sack. I don't want to do this coming 376 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 1: off the ball. If they miss a block in the 377 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: run game or something like that, they're coming off with 378 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: their hair on fire. It's a completely different mindset, and 379 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,959 Speaker 1: I think that's something that gets lost in translation. But 380 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 1: when you empower the offensive line, said, you know what, 381 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: we're this is our opening script, our first five plays. 382 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 1: We're running the football because we trust you, we believe 383 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 1: in you. Those guys get hyped up. They get excited 384 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 1: about the thought process of that because they're like, okay, well, 385 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 1: you know, whether it's a quick game or if it's 386 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: a screen or something like that, it's so much easier 387 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: from an offensive line standpoint of being able to fight 388 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: off the ball and go get somebody, as opposed to 389 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: sitting there and trying to, you know, to negate what 390 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: they're going to do against you. I like what you said, 391 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: they're empower the offensive line because it was a young, 392 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 1: old line. Kelvin Beecham the one true veteran, if you will, 393 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: the only starter remaining on that old line. He talked 394 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: about how well the team ran until they didn't on Sunday. 395 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: I think we did a really good job of keeping 396 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: their eyes dirty early to be able to get the 397 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 1: ball downhill, but actually keep their eyes going sideway. So 398 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: I think we did a really good job in that 399 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: particular regard. When we got late in the game, you know, 400 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 1: they did a really good job of starting to stunt. 401 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: They brought three on the line of streamach and put 402 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 1: an extra guy in the box, and you know, we 403 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: just didn't make an adjustment fast enough to try to 404 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: handle that. But you know, I don't know. I think 405 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: we ran the ball extremely well, but when we needed 406 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: to handle the game and close the game out in 407 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 1: the most critical moments of the game, we didn't do. So. 408 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: It was the eighth different offensive line combination as Max 409 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 1: Garcia got the starts at right guard, the third different 410 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,439 Speaker 1: right guard to start a game this season, and then 411 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 1: he had backups the rest of the way. As I mentioned, 412 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: Kelvin Beacham the only starter left on that oh line, 413 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: And yeah, a lot of moving parts within that O 414 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: line room over the last several days, Kyle, you brought 415 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 1: up Steve Hyden taking over the offensive line in the 416 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: run game coordinator Kingsbury mentioned that it's kind of a 417 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: group efforts, but it is Hyden who has a big 418 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: impact in that prep. Kingsbury discussed the run game prep 419 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: ahead of the Chargers game. That's thought the O line. 420 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 1: It's a nice sub Steve Hyden who stepped in Bryan Atkimi. 421 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 1: I thought they had a good plan and we were 422 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: just ex shooting at a high level, and then I 423 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 1: thought they made some adjustments. You got a tip your 424 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: head to the charges and how they handled the second half. 425 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: Twenty five rush attempts by James Conner thirty four for 426 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 1: the game. But Kyle, maybe hindsight always twenty twenty could 427 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 1: there have been twenty six, twenty seven, twenty eight rushing attempts. 428 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: You look at that fourth and one in the second 429 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: quarter or late in the game, why not run the 430 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: ball a little bit more because it was so successful. Yeah, 431 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: you're right, you know. I think to me, that's the 432 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,360 Speaker 1: one thing if you could go back and change it's 433 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,360 Speaker 1: just late in the game. I realized you were trying 434 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 1: to work some of the short passing game. They're taking 435 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: away some of the things in the run game, but 436 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 1: you just had to chew up some clock. You know, 437 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 1: the defense looked like for the second game in a row, 438 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: they were really worn out at late in the game. 439 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: And you know, you have a reason in Mexico City. 440 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: But the reason and this one was just the quick 441 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: three and outs. And you know, having been a defensive player, 442 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: you get a big stop, you make a big play, 443 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:29,679 Speaker 1: you get the ball back in your offensive hands, and 444 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 1: if it's a quick three and out, it's just so deflating, 445 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: especially late in that fourth quarter. You know, but again, 446 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: hats off to this group. You know, it's to me. 447 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: You know, you don't pay attention to the numbers that 448 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: are on the field. This is the most physical and 449 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 1: best execution that the offensive line, particularly in the run 450 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: game and even in the past game. I mean, you 451 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 1: look at the post game stats. You know, Kyler Murray 452 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: was sacked once and hit one other time. You know, 453 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 1: they played a great all around game. It's just, you know, 454 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 1: again you just lament that they just couldn't keep pounding 455 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 1: it at them in the fourth quarter to protect their lead. 456 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,719 Speaker 1: And um, you know with the backups in and the 457 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: change with the in the old line room, Um, if 458 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: there's any group that that really stepped up this game, 459 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: it was that offensive line, and hats off to them 460 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 1: for their performance. Cardinals average better than five yards a 461 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 1: carry on Sunday. But we keep going back to how 462 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: the game finished. Kelvin beach and post game was some 463 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: rather i opening comments about how the game finished. At 464 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: the end of the day, it's it's all about to 465 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 1: turnover bout them and we had two turnovers, and uh, 466 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 1: you're not supposed to win if you have two turnovers. 467 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: But even in spite of that, as as you know, 468 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: stupid as we played today, we set out opportunity to 469 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: close the game out and we didn't do so. Stupid. 470 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: You didn't like the football, IQ, not at all. How So, 471 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 1: I mean there's opportunity again to close the game out 472 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: with drives in the fourth quarter and offenses that are 473 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: of playoff caliber able to do so, and we didn't 474 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: do that today. I want to get both of your 475 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: comments on that, because if there is one voice in 476 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 1: that offensive room that I'll listen to the most, it's 477 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 1: Kelvin Beacham's Bood Baker on the defense. Kelvin Beacham on 478 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: the offensive side. But Drewdy here him say stupid football 479 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: and he was pressed by Paul Calvacy did not give 480 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: specific examples, but what do you think he meant by 481 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: that as far as the execution or the play calling. 482 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 1: What made him use that phrase? Well, I think a 483 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: lot of it just BOI was onto execution, right of view, 484 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: know you're going to do it. It's imposing your will 485 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: like they did in the first opening drive of saying okay, 486 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 1: this is the type of game that's going to be. 487 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: And I would even contend they were minus three in 488 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 1: the turnover battle because we look back at that fourth 489 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 1: down conversion that didn't happen, and on third down, you know, 490 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: you have a chance to get the first down, And 491 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: sometimes we look back at that fourth and one and say, well, 492 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: why is he throwing it deep here? What's going on? 493 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: And everything's a little helter skelter that third and one. 494 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: They realistically should have gotten the ball there. Um, you know, 495 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: you give the ball to James Connor and as opposed 496 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: to having you know, Clill mac and a wide nine 497 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: and that's an automatic gift from a quarterback standpoint. And 498 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: I don't even know how to do his own reads, 499 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 1: but in saying that, sometimes that third and one leads 500 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 1: into the fourth and one and then you turn over 501 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,199 Speaker 1: the ball right there at that portion. So all of 502 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: these things go into it. Yes, we highlight the end 503 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: portion of the game, or we highlight the turnovers, or 504 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: we conveniently manipulate stats to be the way we want 505 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: to be. It's about the guys that are on the 506 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: field executing the play that's called. And sometimes Kyler has 507 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,160 Speaker 1: the freedom of doing that. We don't know the freedom 508 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: of those last three drives that he didn't have success on, 509 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: or what he could or could have done differently. He 510 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: knows that, but hopefully the corrections are made so next 511 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: time the opportunity presents itself, they go out and close 512 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: the game out and they end the game with the 513 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: football in their hands. Speaking of Kyle Murray his thoughts 514 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 1: on how that game finished on Sunday, I mean we 515 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 1: practice that stuff. I mean, there's there's really no excuse 516 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: for our last three drives, no excuse. You know, I 517 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 1: think we got you know, we got the players. There's 518 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,679 Speaker 1: there's no issues for you know, um, not finishing that 519 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 1: game on our terms, not having to put the defense 520 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,199 Speaker 1: back out there. They did their job. You know, they 521 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: did their job, and you know we don't get a 522 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 1: first down, We don't run the clock. That's tough. You 523 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: put them back, you know, put them back on the field. 524 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: Like the going back to Beacham's postgame comments, Kyle, what 525 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: did you make of what he had to tell Paul, 526 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: I think it's frustration. Um, you know, the the tough 527 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: thing with this team is it seems to be different 528 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: things most week, most weeks. I'm sorry, but um, it's 529 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: it's not consistently the same issue over and over. It's 530 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: not consistently the same player. Um. You know, there's lapses, 531 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: and that's it's it's a part of it is, you know, 532 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: injuries and backups coming in and getting them up to 533 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: speed and getting some of the backups to understand how 534 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: to perform consistently. Um. And some of it is just 535 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: again situational football, and that is the tough part. It's 536 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 1: it's part of being a professional in this league. If 537 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 1: you just got brought up and you're you know, you're 538 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,199 Speaker 1: new to the team, it's your responsibility. Its the coach's 539 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 1: responsibility to get you up to speed because you can't 540 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:13,479 Speaker 1: continually have one player or one mishap here that that 541 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: is killing plays, killing drives and costing you games. So 542 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,239 Speaker 1: you know, I think to me, you know again, the 543 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: challenge going forward for this team to finish off the 544 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: season on a bright spot is to play consistent football 545 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 1: and to consistently execute, to come out fast, get the lead, 546 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 1: and figure out how to keep that lead when you're 547 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 1: in the second half. Well, they've got time to work 548 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 1: on it. This week, more about the rest, the mental 549 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 1: recover right, and then next week when they return on 550 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 1: the field ahead of that game against Patriots, work on 551 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: some of that late game situational football so this team 552 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,719 Speaker 1: can turn it around. Here over these last five games, 553 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 1: we've had halftime here on the Cardinals Red Sea Report 554 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: presented by seat Gee your ticket to great Seats. When 555 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: we come back, the defense laid well until that final drive, 556 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: but some good moments, some good pressure on Justin Herbert 557 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: as well. They say sacks come in bunches. They did 558 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: for the defense on Sunday alongside Drew Stanton and Covanabosh. 559 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: I'm Craig Riel loup were. We do it each and 560 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: every Tuesday, eleven am. It's the Cardinals Red Sea Report 561 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 1: here on the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network. Good motion is 562 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: Alan Wright to left. Herbert takes the staff play fake 563 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: boot to the right, Herbert being chased brow Wright, caught 564 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 1: by Heckler, he hits the pylon touchdown. He hit the 565 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: pylon as he was getting tackled by Isaiah Sibbons. And 566 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: they're actually gonna keep the offense on the field to 567 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: go for two to try to win the game. A 568 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: ball perhaps Herbert Waiting takes the shotgun staff back to 569 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 1: throw fires to the right, caught by Ebert for two 570 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: to the end Zoe. The Chargers take the lead twenty 571 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 1: five twenty four, fifteen seconds left in one time out 572 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: remaining for the Cardinals who need a miracle. Oh my goodness, 573 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 1: defense said stop the Chargers three straight possessions held them 574 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 1: to a field goal to open the second half, but 575 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 1: when it mattered most, with a minute forty eight left 576 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: to go in one time out, the Chargers go thirty 577 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: eight yards on seven plays in a minute thirty three. 578 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert to Austin Ekeler for the touchdown. Justin Herbert 579 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: to Gerald Everett for the two point conversion. Chargers win 580 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: twenty five twenty fours. We continue here on the Cardinals 581 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: Red Seat Report presented by SeatGeek, your ticket to great seats. 582 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: As we take a look at that last sequence. Kyle 583 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: as a defensive player amongst the three of us. I'm 584 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 1: not even including myself amongst the offense or defense, but 585 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: just what you saw, whether it was the touchdown or 586 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: the two point conversion, you know, both were an issue 587 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: for me. Um. Look, Isaiah Simms is a special player 588 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: with special talent that appeared like, um, you know, his 589 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: eyes betrayed him, possibly on both UM and even going 590 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: back to the DeAndre Carter touchdown where there was a 591 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 1: there was a bust that looked like that was Isaiah 592 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 1: Simmons that should have ran with him. Um. You know, 593 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: it's it's kind of been his m Achilles heel throughout 594 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: his careers where he will be consistent through most of 595 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 1: the game and then just have that one bust and 596 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: he needs to continue to work on his coverage. UM. 597 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: You know, to me, especially the two point conversion was Uh. 598 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: Andrew can probably speak more on this than I can, 599 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: but it was just too easy. You can't give up 600 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: that type of play. I mean, it was just an 601 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:47,959 Speaker 1: easy pitching catch for Justin Herbert. So um. You know, again, 602 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:53,479 Speaker 1: the defense um played really well throughout most of the game. Um, 603 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: It's just these lapses, and um, you know, I felt 604 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: like they had a good game plan. I felt like 605 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: they played physically, they played control the line of scrimmage 606 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 1: through most of the game. Just you know, just like 607 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 1: we talked with the offense, they couldn't get that big 608 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: stop when they needed it. And that's a tough way 609 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: to go out because to me, you know, look, losing stinks. 610 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 1: It stinks that next week. It's it's hard to get 611 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: over it. It's part of being a professional. The ones 612 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: where you control the game, where you had an opportunity, 613 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: where you lose it late are much tougher to deal 614 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 1: with because you everything's under a microscope. You know, there's 615 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 1: a couple dozen plays that could have flipped this game 616 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: and the Cardinals favor and you know, particularly late in 617 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: that game, you're gonna look at those plays and look 618 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: at what went wrong, and it appears again like it 619 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: was just a lack of execution, maybe a wrong step here, 620 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: maybe your rise are in the wrong place for a 621 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: split second. And justin Herbert, you know, as a franchise quarterback, 622 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: did what franchise quarterbacks do with latent games and made 623 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: the plays that they needed to make. The play design 624 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: and in the play execution on that two point try, 625 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: and I've seen it a number of times and how 626 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: it's been diagrammed and where you're supposed to be. But 627 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: to Kyle's point, that was too easy of a two 628 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: point try, well, I think it was too easy of 629 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: a two point try because you're going up against the 630 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: good offense that got you exactly where they wanted you, 631 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: knowing what you're going to do schematically defensively, I mean again, 632 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: to motion the back from the other side of the 633 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: field they come across and just give him a little 634 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: bit of eye trouble to take his eyes off of 635 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: what's going on and the horizontal stretch that it creates 636 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: of saying, oh man, especially given what the touchdown that 637 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: just happened to play before. So again, I think it's 638 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 1: as much as what they did to scheme them up 639 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: offensively of saying that, because you know that they're going 640 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: to try in and out, they're gonna try and double 641 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: different guys. They might try and do that to Austin Eckler. 642 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 1: They're trying to create something to get your eyes away 643 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: from where they're really trying to go. You're not going 644 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: to double a Gerald evert you're not going too based 645 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: off of Keenan Allen or Austin Ecklers. Those are the 646 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: guys you're gonna try and double and when you're sitting 647 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 1: there and there's no safety help, there's nobody you're pushing 648 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: them to or anything like that. They did a tremendous 649 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: job of unfolding with Keenan Allen to be able to 650 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: do that. He takes all that off and you've got 651 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,719 Speaker 1: a two way go. You see that so well, and 652 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 1: he just crosses his face. It's an easy completion because 653 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: of what's going on. Yes, it's easy to point the 654 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 1: finger at somebody like Isaiah Simmons and say, well, he 655 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 1: just he dropped the ball there. You can see his 656 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: eyes drift out to Austin Ekeler and then try and 657 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 1: get back inside. It was just a fantastic play call 658 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: because of the way they unfolded it and the window 659 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: dressing that they put on it. Buddhe Baker was on 660 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: the opposite side of where that play was happening. He 661 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 1: was asked postgame what he saw from his vantage point. Personally, 662 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: I was in a situation where I'm double teaming the 663 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: slot receiver to the right ball gets caught to the left. 664 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: So for me, it's kind of like a broken record. 665 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: If I'm on the right, it's going left, on the 666 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: left is going right, and it's kind of getting boring. 667 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, I just got 668 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 1: to continue to do my job. Budde Baker does his job. 669 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: The defense continued to do its job there and the 670 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 1: fourth quarter repeatedly asked to stop the Charger's offense, and 671 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,239 Speaker 1: Buddha was asked again. The defense being asked to go 672 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: back on the field so many times after what we're 673 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: quick offensive possessions. You know, I always try to preach 674 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: to our guys, no matter where the ball is, our 675 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: job as defensive players is to defend, whether that's on 676 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: our own five yard line or their own five yard line, 677 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 1: wherever we're at, wherever the ball is set, that's where 678 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 1: we defend it, no matter what. And you know, that's 679 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: a mindset each and every time we go out on 680 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: that field. Lost in all of this skyle is the 681 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: fact that this Cardinals team did pressure Justin Herbert and 682 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: got to him a lot. Four sacks, thirteen quarterback hits, 683 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 1: the big sack by Isaiah Simmons, which you thought maybe 684 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: was going to be at the turning point in the 685 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: second half. It was not. But JJ Watt Zach Allen 686 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 1: continue from their defensive line position not only get into 687 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 1: the backfield, but finish in the backfield as far as 688 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: sacks are concerned. Yeah, those two in particular just continue 689 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 1: to play really well. Zach Allen Layton the game UM 690 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: was was unblockable. UM. He was back there consistently getting pressure, 691 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: getting hits, getting getting a sack. UM. You know, JJ 692 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: Watt continues to move and be utilized at every position 693 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,359 Speaker 1: on the defensive line. I mean his sack came off 694 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,919 Speaker 1: of a speed rush from a from an edge rush position. UM, 695 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: something you wouldn't normally expect from a guy who's close 696 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:24,959 Speaker 1: to three hundred pounds. UM. And you know there's there's 697 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: some bright spots on this defense. You're seeing Cam Thomas 698 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: get a sack. You're seeing my j Sanders get his 699 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 1: highest snap count of the season, continue to be productive. UM. 700 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: You know the frustrating part for me, UM is really 701 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 1: these last two games, the defense just looked gassed. I 702 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: mean they played sixty four snaps on defense. UM. Really, 703 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: other than UM their touchdown drive there there wasn't any 704 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: sustained drives that kept a defense on the field for 705 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 1: a prolonged period of time. I think Vince Joseph does 706 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,840 Speaker 1: a good job of rotating players, um and and you know, 707 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: by my est, Toma, and that's probably why they went 708 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 1: for the two point conversion late in the game. They 709 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 1: saw a defense that was tired, of defense that was 710 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: on their heels. And when you get tired, you need 711 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: to be able to continue to focus and continue to 712 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 1: execute regardless. But to me, there's there's excuses, and there's 713 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: reasons for just about everything, but for the defense to 714 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,840 Speaker 1: just look like they were gassed at the end of 715 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,359 Speaker 1: these last two games, to me, that's a problem. I've 716 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 1: heard that a couple of different times this season, the 717 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: defense being on the field too much, Vans Joseph Tho says, 718 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: and we heard Buddha Baker earlier here, Drew, It's doesn't 719 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 1: matter how many times we're asked, that's our job to do. 720 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 1: Yet at the same time, I'm sure whether they're saying 721 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:44,880 Speaker 1: it privately or amongst themselves in position rooms or meeting rooms, 722 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: it's it's got to wear on you, not only physically 723 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: the Kyle's point, but mentally as well. Yeah, well, I 724 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,839 Speaker 1: think you know, the biggest thing that you can see 725 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,359 Speaker 1: in this team, right, it is just the sometimes when 726 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 1: things don't go well, that body language and you know 727 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 1: Bertram talked about it before of the body language is 728 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 1: so important on the sidelines. And even that last one, 729 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 1: right when they score the touchdown they go the two 730 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 1: point conversion, they're still fifteen seconds left to go win 731 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: a football game. You've got Matt Prador who's got a 732 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 1: strong leg, you can do all of these things. That 733 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 1: team seemed like they didn't even have the mindset to 734 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 1: go out there and want to try and go win 735 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: a football game. And that's what's more concerning to me. Yes, 736 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 1: the defense was put behind the eight ball and all 737 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,359 Speaker 1: these things, and conditioning is one thing, but you've got 738 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,520 Speaker 1: to take it personal from your side of the ball. 739 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 1: You've got to take it personal from your standpoint as 740 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: a position group to be able to go out there 741 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 1: and help and play for the person next to you. 742 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 1: And defensively, Yeah, you can see and you can hear 743 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: the anguish in Buddha Baker's voice when he talks about 744 00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: how painful this is of like, okay, they're going to 745 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 1: gave it from me. Yeah, people are going to throw 746 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 1: away from you, Buddha. They don't want to throw at you, 747 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,439 Speaker 1: or they understand that you're kind of trying to double 748 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,760 Speaker 1: team the best guys and we're trying offensively to negate 749 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: what you guys do best. So we're looking for those 750 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 1: one on one matchups. We're looking for you guys to 751 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:55,919 Speaker 1: get your eyes in the wrong place and be able 752 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:58,399 Speaker 1: to do that and throw that. Again, there were still 753 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,719 Speaker 1: even a short field, right They went thirty eight yards 754 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:02,319 Speaker 1: for the touchdown? Is that what it was? I mean 755 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 1: had a long return plus the five yard penalty on 756 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 1: special teams. So exactly, for any quarterback in the NFL 757 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: to go thirty eight yards with that much time left 758 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: and the time out in their pocket, I would expect 759 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: the offense to be at an extreme advantage in this league. 760 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 1: And that's hard on a defense. Again, but that's your 761 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 1: job description, that's what you're required to go out and do, 762 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 1: and it's somebody making an extra effort play something going 763 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: above and beyond to Kyle's point of making the focus 764 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: a priority in what you need to do with the 765 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 1: framework of that, because in the waning moments of that game, 766 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 1: this looked like a team that not only defensively didn't 767 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 1: know what was going on offensively, was lost as well. 768 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,479 Speaker 1: When more from Buddha Baker as far as now where 769 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: this team goes, his message to his teammates for the 770 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: final five games rests were juvenate, recover, be with your families. 771 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, when it's time 772 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 1: to work, we work at work, and we've got five 773 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 1: more opportunities. Take the best of those opportunities, because you 774 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 1: know this league is stands for not for long, and 775 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,160 Speaker 1: we got five more opportunities to play some good football. 776 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 1: And that's the plan that we're going to do. Cardinals 777 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 1: did respond after the tough loss in Mexico City. Now 778 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,359 Speaker 1: the question is how do they respond, not just after 779 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 1: a bye week, but after losing to the Chargers. They 780 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 1: crushing defeats in the last seconds. We will wait and 781 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:19,239 Speaker 1: see because the Cardinals do not play again until Monday night, 782 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: December twelve, when they host the New England Patriots. Arizona 783 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 1: Cardinals single game tickets are available now. Go toasy cardinals 784 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:30,319 Speaker 1: dot com slash tickets for more information. Mentioned it off 785 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 1: the top. First time DeAndre Hopkins and Hollywood Brown on 786 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 1: the field together this season we'll talk about their performance 787 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 1: on Sunday. Yes, it came at a loss, but it 788 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 1: certainly looks very very good. Can it be sustained? Can 789 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 1: it be improved upon over these last five games and 790 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: into next season as well? It is the Cardinals Red 791 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 1: Sea Report, presented by Seki Your Ticket to great Seats. 792 00:38:55,440 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 1: This is the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network. Third down at 793 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:12,839 Speaker 1: six at the LA thirty four, Chargers showing blitz. They 794 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: back off Murray back the past, blackout pass at the middle, 795 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: pop at the twenty in a broken tackle. Hop is 796 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 1: loose at the tent at the five and in the 797 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 1: end zone before the touchdown. This will likely stand. It 798 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: looked like the Chargers were offside again, Murray getting rid 799 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: of it quickly, being decisive and letting his playmaker do 800 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 1: the rest of thirty four yard ten and run for 801 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: a score by hop DeAndre Hopkins over the middle of 802 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 1: the field. Great job by Kyler. Murray's standing tall in 803 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:47,360 Speaker 1: the pocket and delivering a strike to DeAndre Hopkins, and 804 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,760 Speaker 1: as he done so much of the time, he runs 805 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:54,719 Speaker 1: after the catch man He's slippery, broken tackle of the 806 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 1: twenty and went the rest of the way for the touchdown. 807 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 1: That put the Cardinals in front seven to nothing. They 808 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 1: would go on to lose though, falling into the Chargers 809 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 1: twenty five twenty four. But as we talked about here 810 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,720 Speaker 1: on the Cardinals Red Sea Report, first time DeAndre Hopkins 811 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: and Hollywood Brown on the field at the same time 812 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:17,399 Speaker 1: this season combined ten catches for one hundred and thirty 813 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 1: three yards a touchdown on fourteen targets. You could argue 814 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 1: that they should have been targeted more, especially late in 815 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 1: that game. But Kyle, as you look back when you 816 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,400 Speaker 1: saw Hollywood and d Hop on the field, and we 817 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 1: did see d Hop move quite a bit left right 818 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 1: inside of Hollywood, especially on that touchdown, what do you think. 819 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 1: I think it looked good. I'm excited about where this 820 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: is headed. Like you said, you know, ideally you're looking 821 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:45,360 Speaker 1: in the twenties at total targets between the two because 822 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,280 Speaker 1: they are such a huge fact. I mean, the things 823 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins can do, I mean even that catchy made 824 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: that one handed catch. He's just phenomenal. He's got such 825 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: a huge catch radius. And they both do a really 826 00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 1: good job of understanding coverages, of finding um the weak 827 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 1: spots and zones and sitting down they both have the 828 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:07,399 Speaker 1: trust of Kyler Murray, so, um, you know, you can 829 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,360 Speaker 1: expect this to look more dynamic going forward. This was 830 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 1: the first game that they were ever on the field together. Again, 831 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,879 Speaker 1: you know, Kyler did target Hollywood Brown deep a couple 832 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: of times. You can expect that to be a little 833 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:20,880 Speaker 1: bit more successful down the road as they continue to 834 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 1: get that work together. And it's hard to not think that, 835 00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 1: um uh, part of James Connor's success and the success 836 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: on the ground game was because the Chargers were so 837 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 1: concerned about having these two dynamic receivers and trying to 838 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 1: account for them and how they were going to be 839 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 1: involved in the offense. So, um, you know, it's it's 840 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,280 Speaker 1: it opens up everything when when you have i mean, 841 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: in reality, two number one receivers on the field that 842 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 1: you have to contend with every single play that have 843 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,760 Speaker 1: the home run type ability that can make the plays 844 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,919 Speaker 1: that they make. That it opens up opportunities for everybody else. 845 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 1: What did you think, Drew as far as as from 846 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:04,400 Speaker 1: the quarterback vantage point on having two number one wide 847 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,800 Speaker 1: receivers on the field, I mean, it makes a huge difference, 848 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 1: right because you're able to dictate coverage of what's going 849 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: on especially, you know, as I would have imagined, you 850 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,800 Speaker 1: put d hop on the inside, you let Hollywood be 851 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:17,919 Speaker 1: on the outside, and that's where you can create big 852 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 1: plays on the inside because you get a two way go, 853 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: you get all these things. I thought Cliff did a 854 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 1: great job of putting together a game plan, and again 855 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 1: this is just the beginning of what it can look 856 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,600 Speaker 1: like in all together these working pieces, and even more 857 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:32,720 Speaker 1: so when you get Roundel Moore back out there because 858 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 1: he has his pieces that he can add to that 859 00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 1: too as well. Or if it's Greg Dortch, that that 860 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 1: kind of scat back type of a guy that you 861 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 1: can bring out of the backfield that you can give 862 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 1: quick screens to and get him on the move, that 863 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 1: can turn into long catching runs, especially when there's going 864 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,479 Speaker 1: to be so much effort put into trying to stop 865 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins and trying to stop Hollywood Brown. That third 866 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 1: or fourth option typically is the one that can surprise 867 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 1: you and have huge days or be able to be 868 00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: different makers, especially in critical situations. That's what happened exactly 869 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 1: to us on that two point play. Right You're not 870 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 1: thinking that Gerald ever is going to be able to 871 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 1: do that because you're not putting all your eggs in 872 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,800 Speaker 1: that basket to stop him and then creating that matchup. 873 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 1: So that's something that you can lean on. And the 874 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:14,839 Speaker 1: more that you get them out there together, the more 875 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 1: that you realize the trust that they can build them 876 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 1: playing off of each other. Right when you can go 877 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 1: in and out and you can be able to stack 878 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: them and get them in different alignments, you motion them 879 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:25,880 Speaker 1: to the same side. You do all of these things, 880 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:29,239 Speaker 1: and you can get DeAndre Hopkins playing in unison with 881 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:32,399 Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown. The sky's the limit because of what they 882 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: bring to the table. And you have them going, you know, 883 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 1: deep at different times, you have them breaking off routes, 884 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 1: you have them working together and there's some chemistry there 885 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:43,799 Speaker 1: that they can create and helping one another out on 886 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 1: top of helping out the quarterback. Unfortunate that we had 887 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,399 Speaker 1: to wait until week twelve to see It's head coach 888 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury on his top two pass catchers playing together. 889 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:57,280 Speaker 1: There's some good stuff, some things we'd like to have back, obviously, 890 00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 1: but I thought those guys played at high level. They 891 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 1: really compliment each other well, and we got to continue 892 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 1: to build that rapport with those two when they're out 893 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,359 Speaker 1: on a shield together. To your point, Drew about that 894 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,880 Speaker 1: third pass catcher. Now, Ron Delmore did not play. Greg 895 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,799 Speaker 1: Dortsch did not play. It was James Connor who was 896 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:17,360 Speaker 1: the second or the third leading receiver, maybe not so 897 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,760 Speaker 1: much out of the running back, but another wide receiver 898 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 1: to be that third wheel if you will, Yeah, or 899 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,719 Speaker 1: Tray McBride right out of the tight end position. Is 900 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 1: that's where you would love to have a zach Uras 901 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 1: right now? Obviously he's like going back with Tray McBride 902 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 1: shows that he can kind of help with that intermediate 903 00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 1: passing game, being able to do that if you are 904 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 1: pushing it options deep of being able to take some 905 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 1: pressure off them real quick. Kyle, did you ever have 906 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:44,320 Speaker 1: a buy this late in a season? No, it stinks. 907 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 1: It stinks with the injury position this team has been 908 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:48,799 Speaker 1: in that they didn't have an opportunity earlier in the 909 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: season to try to get some players healthy for a run. 910 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 1: But you play with the cards you're dealt, and here 911 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 1: they are, so they need to get healthy and they 912 00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 1: need to play well for the rest of the season. 913 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:02,280 Speaker 1: No buy for us. We'll be back in one week's time. Special. 914 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 1: Thanks behind the scenes, Jim Almahondro, Cody Fincher for Drew 915 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 1: Stinkyle Van Debosh, I'm Craig Reel Lou.
