Lights on your f one fifty 20 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: because the roster is now coming into focus. You can 21 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: see ahead where the Cardinals are going. You can see 22 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: where they have landed. Oh wait a minute, there was 23 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: a stop for a cornerback earlier. Today there were some 24 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: tight end news cleared up as well, a little draft 25 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: clarification as well. And how about this week in general, 26 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: Ron Wolfley, you definitely have not been as productive as 27 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: the airs on a Cardinals this week, as they have 28 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: addressed multiple spots will get into it. It's not just 29 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: the Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert. 30 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: We are satan Ford, Paul Calvc, Ron Wolfley. It is 31 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: show number five hundred in the history of the Big 32 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,959 Speaker 1: Red Rage. Wolf Well, you know what, Pobaby, it only 33 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: seems very momentous that show number five hundred would have 34 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: as much news as the Arizona Cardinals have today. I 35 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: could not believe it, Paul, the news that just kept 36 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: coming down about the Arizona Cardinals. And here we are, 37 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: show number five hundred, and we talked about clearing up, 38 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: heating up. We even have a backup quarterback potentially news. 39 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: So up and down there's the Indy five hundred and 40 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: then there's the five hundredth episode of The Big Red Rage, 41 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: and we're gonna get into it. We're gonna go down 42 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: memory lane. We're gonna revisit some of the all time 43 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: great moments in the history of this show, which goes 44 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 1: almost two decades. Now, think about that, and then we're 45 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: gonna talk about what's front Burner and Wolf. You tell 46 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: me when they signed Malcolm Butler, that obviously filled the 47 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 1: biggest hole that was left at this point in the offseason. 48 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: Malcolm Butler come on down a one year deal with 49 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: the Arizona card Yeah, Polly, it's so interesting because right now, 50 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if you're reading the tea leaves of 51 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: all of these signings in these moves that Steve Kim 52 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 1: and the Arizona Cardinals have made so far, but one 53 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: thing screams out to me in almost all of these signings, Polly, 54 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,679 Speaker 1: and that is there's going to be a change of 55 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: culture inside that locker room. There's going to be a 56 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: lot more physicality. When you talk about Malcolm Butler, you 57 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: talk about him just as a corner, Polly, start talking 58 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: about him being a physical press man, corner or a 59 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: guy that's going to be physical and be able to 60 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: hold up and cover two schemes where you've got that 61 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: roll up corner and any type of play, any type 62 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: of perimeter play that comes towards that number two corner, 63 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: that covered two corner. He's got to force everything inside. 64 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: You need to feel a goal corner to do that 65 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: right now. Top end speed gonna be a little bit 66 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: suspect with Malcolm Butler, but this is a guy that 67 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: gets it done via savvy and just being smarter than 68 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: you are. And starting with JJ Watt, the physicality, the energy, 69 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: the intensity a Rodney Hudson who is a maller at 70 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 1: the center position. Yes, they added up Brian Winters. I mean, 71 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: the dude is pulling f three fifties, you know, World 72 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: Strongman competition type stuff. How about you know, purposely going 73 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: after and resigning Marcus Golden. All right, Junkyard Dog, You're right, Wulf. 74 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: There is a pattern here, Darrell Daniels bringing him back 75 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: as that second tight end, ad move tight end, more 76 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: blocker than receiver. They're not just building a team, they're 77 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: building a culture. I agree with you, and we'll get 78 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 1: into what Malcolm Butler does for the Arizona Cardinal's next 79 00:04:54,839 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: the big red rage shown number five hundred. The poll 80 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: is hit the Patriot one the quarterback Wilson is in 81 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: the shotgun information Lynch will flank into his left two 82 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 1: one to the near side, one to the fall. In 83 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 1: the shut gun, there's the Snappe's felled high control interston. 84 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: It's intercepted by Fulcol Butler. Welcome, Butler is intercepting Listen 85 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: Wilson at the goal line. Twenty second slift. Parler does 86 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: an unbelievable job getting inside and I'm surprised that Russell 87 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 1: Wilson through it here. Harler read the play perfectly, one 88 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: behind the pick and ran right to where the slam 89 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 1: was going to be prone. Beast Mode was surprised that 90 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson threw that ball right there. That's how Super 91 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: Bowl forty nine ended at State Farm Stadium. And that 92 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: was just the beginning of the career of Malcolm Butler, who, 93 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: if you remember, was an undrafted rookie that season out 94 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: of West Alabama and a Super Bowl clinching interception to 95 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: win for the Patriots with the Seahawks at the goal line. 96 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: Wolf I was at at that game. I was in 97 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: auxiliary media. You're never It's never good when you're on 98 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: auxiliary media seating. I was a good three rows from 99 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 1: the top of the stadium and it happened right in 100 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: front of me, although I had my binoculars watching it 101 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: from that point. And you've never seen a fan base 102 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: so distraught. It's one thing to lose a game at 103 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: the end. It's another thing to lose a Super Bowl 104 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 1: at the very end on the final play. And there 105 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: you go Malcolm Butler and that's the play of his 106 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: career so far after one year with Tennessee, signs in 107 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 1: the line that has dotted today and he's the newest 108 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals, not just cornerback, but he's going to be 109 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: your number one corner going into this season, no doubt 110 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: about it. Bali, you know, it's so fascinating I knew 111 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: about this. Is Malcolm Butler. Once again, this guy is 112 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: a tough, tough dude. He's a tough corner. He's a 113 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: pretty big corner. When you think of five eleven one 114 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: ninety poly that's a pretty good size for a cornerback 115 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: right there, and once again, tough. A guy that is 116 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: an alpha male the locker room, the testosterone that is 117 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: going to be floating around the Arizona Cardel's locker room 118 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: this year in twenty twenty one is so impressive, it's unbelievable. 119 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: This guy is a man's man, a man's corner, if 120 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: you will. Polly, very very physical guy. Once again, doesn't 121 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: have the top end speed that maybe he once possessed. 122 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: He's got average speed right now, I think when you 123 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: consider the totality of his position, but he gets so 124 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: much of it done based on knowing scheme, knowing route combinations, anticipation, 125 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: knowing where to be. This is a very very smart 126 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: football player. And of all the guys, and I said this, Polly, 127 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: before this signing right here, I said this. I said, 128 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: of all the corners that are out there right now 129 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: and are available, the one guy that I'm interested in 130 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: is Malcolm Butller. Well, guess what maybe you spoken into 131 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: existence because speaking of before this signing, here's Steve Kime 132 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: on Monday the Arizona Cardinals gym answering a question about 133 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: the Cardinals corner situation. At that moment. You know, every 134 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: team has holes, and one thing you don't want to 135 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: do is you don't want to panic and do things 136 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: that are put you in a tough situation from a 137 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: cap standpoint, So we'll continue to monitor the market. There's 138 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: different avenues that we can take, whether it's through free agency, 139 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: trade options, or even the NFL draft. Look, the supply 140 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: was out there. It was a matter of waiting what 141 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: would come to him. And if you believe the reports, 142 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: he signed a one year deal Malcolm Butler with a 143 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: Cardinals worth a maximum of six million a base of 144 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: three point five million according to multiple reports. So Tennessee 145 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 1: let him go. He had a cap number of fourteen 146 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: point two million, So as much as they might have 147 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: wanted to keep them, it just wasn't feasible under their cap. Yeah, 148 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: and see was a free agent man. That is a 149 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: great point, Paul, It really is, because we know the 150 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: salary pinch. Of course, that is happening with every NFL team, 151 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 1: And when you've got a guy that may not be 152 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: a shutdown corner. And I wouldn't call Malcolm Butler a 153 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 1: shutdown corner at this point in his career. I don't 154 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: think Malcolm Butler would call himself a shutdown corner at 155 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: thirty one years of age right now. I don't think 156 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: he'd do that, Polly. But when you're paying somebody like 157 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: that fourteen million and you can save over ten million 158 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: dollars on the cap the way that the Tennessee Titans did. Yeah, 159 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: in this climate right now, you could see that coming. 160 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: I want to say one thing about this Polly last 161 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: year a bit of a bounce back year for Malcolm 162 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 1: Butler in terms of getting his hands on a lot 163 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 1: of footballs. I think it's so important when you look 164 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: at cornerbacks. How many passes defense does a corner have? Polly, 165 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,959 Speaker 1: and you would think of Pat P when Pat p 166 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: came into the league right his first three years in 167 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: the league, would just say that Pat P was really 168 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: an exciting developing corner and all right, Paul, Yeah, a 169 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: lot of his rookie year, obviously he wasn't Pat he 170 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowler act corner, but yeah, after that rookie year, 171 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,319 Speaker 1: absolutely he was the shutdown guy. The first three years, 172 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: teams are gonna Tessac Corner, Tessac Corner, tests at corner, 173 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 1: and suddenly Pappy by year four he had proven he's 174 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: one of the best shutdown corners in the game. And 175 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: he didn't get tested a lot. But the first three 176 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: years he had thirteen passes defense that tells me a lot. 177 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: He was targeted. He's a rookie. Go after him. You 178 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: know what. Thirteen times got his hands on a football, 179 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,199 Speaker 1: knocked it down in his second year in the league. 180 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: Sixteen times Paul knocked it down his third year in 181 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: the league, another thirteen times got his hands on a football, 182 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: knocked it down, and then it just drops off the 183 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: table from that point forward. Why because so many teams 184 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: were not targeting Pat p Right, Malcolm Butler is gonna 185 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 1: get targeted. Nobody's gonna look at Malcolm Butler said, Oh, 186 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: he's a shutdown corner. Don't throw it over there. They're 187 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: gonna do it. They're gonna throw it over there. He 188 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: had fourteen passes defense last year. Paul, this is a 189 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: guy who may not physically be a supreme talent anymore, 190 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: but this is a guy that will get it done 191 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 1: with his brain. I'll take that all day. And he 192 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 1: has ball skills a feign interceptions last year. He tweeted 193 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: out today quote I bawled at the age of thirty. 194 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: I think I can ball harder at thirty one. And 195 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: then after the news broke, he tweeted out, can't wait 196 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 1: to wear that red, talking about signing with the Cardinals, 197 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: and he's a guy with a dozen playoff games worth 198 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 1: of postseason experience under his belt. Ron willfully so not 199 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: going to be surprised. Yeah, he's got that going for him. 200 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: And your point earlier about him being physical. One hundred 201 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: tackles last year between Robert Alford and Malcolm Butler, and 202 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: we know Byron Murphrey will put his hat on you. 203 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a pretty physical group of corners. Just 204 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: another guy that will stick his face into the fire. 205 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: Darren Urban next on show number five hundred and the 206 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: Big Red Rage, You're flying solo tonight, But it doesn't 207 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: mean you don't have big news to announce for trand Berry.

They made it part of my life and 214 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm very thankful for that. And I just wanted to 215 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: do these guys in honor and letting them know and 216 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: go publicly that I've played my last game a professional football. 217 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: I'm retiring for real.

That year Ron Wolfley Pat 225 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: Tillman was a guest, not the Big Red Rage. Think 226 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 1: about that. Think think about some of the hosts over 227 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: the years. Bertrand Berry five years, Kwami Lasseter, Dexter Jackson 228 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: and Quan Bolden, Adrian Wilson, Carrie roose Coleis Campbell obviously 229 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: had a great run. Carlos Dansby was tons of fun. 230 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: DJ Humphrey's most recently has been so dynamic in so 231 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: many ways.

I mean, 240 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: what are you doing with Paul? I still have the 241 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 1: still have the jersey? Remember you presented us with autographed 242 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:02,719 Speaker 1: jerseys that nice to commemorate his retirement. It was it 243 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: was a big deal. And uh, you know he he 244 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: put his best into this show every Thursday night and 245 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: we've tried to do the same, led by producer Jim 246 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 1: Almahundro and uh, to talk about that and to look 247 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: at the news from today, let's bring in Darren urban 248 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: Asy Cardinals dot Com, Cardinals Insider, It's all about You, 249 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert and uh, Darren, you know, 250 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: whether whether it was Larry packing the house in a 251 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: Big Red Rage and telling us about some of the 252 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: contacts on his phone from Tiger Woods to President Obama, 253 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: to Warren Buffa, to two guys like to Pat Tillman 254 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: and to even Max hall Ax. Hall even had an 255 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: appearance on the Big Red Rage. So it's been a 256 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: little bit of everything over the last twenty years. I 257 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: remember when I was working for a newspaper and going 258 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: over to Jilli's and seeing any last I mean, it's 259 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: it's amazing, the staying power of the show. And I 260 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: do I remember Bert friends night. I may or may 261 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: not have been tipped off that the news was coming, 262 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: and I had a I was actually playing in an 263 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: adult basketball league and I actually was sitting in my 264 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: car waiting for him to officially announce it so I 265 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: could post it to the site before I went in 266 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 1: and play basketball. But it's really been an amazing run. 267 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: You guys have done a great job with it, and 268 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: here's to another five hundred shows. Hey, there was that 269 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: one time at Jillies was the final year of Dennis 270 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: Green and Cardinals were off to a tough start, inc 271 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: or a one in seven and Bertram Berry made some 272 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: very pointed direct comments on the big red rage comments 273 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: and when National I remember that going back to that venue, 274 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: and then there was National News today. Darren Malcolm Butler 275 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: is an Arizona Cardinal. Give us your reaction and thoughts 276 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: after writing about an easy Cardinals dot com. I'll be 277 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: honest I'm a little surprised with Malcolm Butler's price tag. 278 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: It's he's a little bit more affordable than I thought 279 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: he was going to be. That's why I didn't think 280 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: he would necessarily be somebody that the Cardinals were going 281 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: to be able to target. And quite frankly, you know, 282 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: is he's still in his prime? Probably not. But I 283 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: do think that they did a nice job to kind 284 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: of rebound off of losing Patrick Peterson and bringing in 285 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: a guy that you figure will probably be able to 286 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: be your number one cornerback for the time being, obviously 287 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: only one year deal, and you get him in there, 288 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: and I think everybody kind of breathe a little bit 289 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: more of a sigh of relief. I think you can 290 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: work with the situation better now going forward. And they 291 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: may not be done at cornerback. They might get another 292 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: vetter in here, but if you know you've got Butler there, 293 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, you've got a lot more 294 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: leeway in terms of what you might get out of 295 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: Robert Offord, You've got Byron Murphy in the slot. I mean, 296 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: there's still things to do, there's still a draft to go, 297 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: but I think you're in a much better place right 298 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: now than you were twenty four hours ago. You know, 299 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: I look at the cornerback position overall, and I am 300 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 1: really really encouraged right now because I get to leave 301 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: Byron Murphy. Of course in the slot. I think that's important. 302 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: I think you need that third corner or of course 303 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: that nickel corner. Now is more of a starter. They 304 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 1: look at him as a starter. He gets so many 305 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 1: snaps in a game. And to be able to leave 306 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: Byron Murphy there and have Robert Alfred on one side 307 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 1: and Malcolm Butler on another, hopefully, hopefully, hopefully Robert Alfred 308 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 1: is going to remain healthy, Oh my goodness, if that 309 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: will only happen right now. This is a guy that 310 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:26,199 Speaker 1: I'm so impressed with his skill set. I love everything 311 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: about him. And by the way, when he was in training, camping, 312 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: he was practicing, he was there was nobody that was 313 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: having a better camp in my opinion than Robert Alfred 314 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: before he got hurt. And now all of a sudden, 315 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 1: two years in a row, it's been a disaster. I 316 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 1: understand that. But if there's somehow, some way he can 317 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 1: actually play and hold down a corner, and now with 318 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,360 Speaker 1: Malcolm Butler, who knows you might be able to get 319 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 1: somebody at number sixteen day. I would imagine they're looking 320 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: at some of these young corners at number sixteen going 321 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: into the draft, right, Yeah, you would think so. But 322 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: you know, the issue is going to be whether one 323 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: of those guys is still around at sixteen, or in 324 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: Farley's case, whether he's healthy enough that you want to 325 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: take that gamble, because I don't I don't know at 326 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,439 Speaker 1: this point if Horn or Certant is going to be 327 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: there and you could get a guy in the second round. Obviously, 328 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: dealing Mason Cole gets you another draft pick, so you've 329 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: got a little bit more leeway there. Although that's a 330 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: sixth rounder. You know again, you've got you've got whatever 331 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: it is. A month before the draft happens, it's a 332 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: lot of time between not only being able to draft 333 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 1: guys but also sign other free agents, and you know, 334 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: we'll see. I agree with you on Alford to be 335 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: nice if he could, if he's able to get back 336 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 1: to where he was. But I mean, even that that 337 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: great training camp you're talking about, Wolf, I mean, we're 338 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: going to be talking about two years removed from that 339 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 1: by the time I get back to training camp this time, 340 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: so we'll up to see. I know, Darren Irban, Cardinals 341 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: insider on the Big Red Rage. As someone pointed out 342 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 1: his Pro Football Focus coverage grade, Malcolm Buttner's seventy two 343 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: point seven would have led all Cardinals defensive backs. Think 344 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: about that. Think about the fact Tennis, he was at 345 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: the bottom of the league in sacks and the Cardinals 346 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: were number four in sacks. How much does that help 347 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 1: a dB A corner right come up better and look 348 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 1: better on film when you have that pass rush and 349 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,199 Speaker 1: the Cardinals looked to have fortified that. How about the 350 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: other side of the ball, Darren and what the Cardinals 351 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: did this week and recently here the offensive line today, 352 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 1: Let's just start with a trade of Mason Cole to 353 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: the Vikings for a six rounder. I mean, clearly, once 354 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 1: they got Rodney Hudson in their own trade, they had 355 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 1: a blood of offensive lineman, and with as few picks 356 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: as they had, with all the trade that they had made, 357 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: it made sense to move Mason Cole. I think they 358 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 1: had given him ample time to kind of show what 359 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: he was going to give them. It wasn't there. I'll 360 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: be honest, I wasn't sure if they were going to 361 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: be able to get a draft pick for him. So 362 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: the fact that they did even a six, I thought 363 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: that was a good move by Steve Khan because he 364 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: just wasn't going to be in your plans and he's 365 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: going into the last year of his contracts. So I 366 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: think that's a benefit. Now they've got six draft pick 367 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: instead of just five, and granted four of them are 368 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: in those last three rounds, but you can hopefully make 369 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 1: some of that work, and who knows, maybe it gives 370 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: you some ammunition to do some other things. And you 371 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: say some money right by Jettasine Mason Cole, Yeah, I 372 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: mean it's it's the cap space. I mean, I think, 373 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's never bad to save a little money, 374 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 1: but the cap space that they're saving, and once you 375 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: once you figure in him going out and then somebody 376 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 1: replacing him in the top fifty one things, it's it's 377 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: about one point three one point four million dollars in 378 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: cap space. But we've talked about this a million times, Paul. 379 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 1: I mean, you need as much cap space as you 380 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: can get at this point, and so that can only help. 381 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 1: And I do think if the if the what's out 382 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 1: there with what Malcolm Butler's contract is, which was up 383 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: to six million, which means it's it's worth less than 384 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: that in terms of guarantees. I think you got him 385 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 1: on a pretty good deal and also too right just 386 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: the fact that Brian Winners and Max Garcia are back 387 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: right there. I saw Mason Cole as a guy that 388 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 1: might battle for that right guard position, but maybe a 389 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: guy that was going to back up, be a move guy, 390 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 1: a guy that can play center and guard of course, 391 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: and maybe right now it's Brian Winners and Max Garcia 392 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: that will cover that. Correct. That's what makes sense to me. 393 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 1: And ultimately, if you go into training camp with a 394 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 1: bunch of extra gise, you're going to be trying to 395 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: trade them at some point for a pick when you 396 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,360 Speaker 1: realize somebody's not going to make the team. And then 397 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,479 Speaker 1: by that time teams can could possibly wait you out 398 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: because they know you're going to cut them. So I 399 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: think be proactive and getting an extra draft pick in 400 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: this draft makes a lot of sense. A little bit 401 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 1: later on this show, Ron Wolfley, as is the custom 402 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: on Thursday Nights, will have an update on Larry Fitzgerald. 403 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: He's just waiting to the very end of the show, 404 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 1: making us wait, what do we know here, Darren? I 405 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 1: saw where Bobby Mack had tweeted out that fitz had 406 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: been part of the Cardinals active roster on the website 407 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: of which you're very familiar. Now he's not listed. He's 408 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: now below the active roster line. I mean, in the 409 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: words of that note an American philosopher Stephen Colbert, you 410 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: know what that means? Probably something or not? What do 411 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: you think? You know? You know, Paul, I know, since 412 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 1: you're such a purveyor of conspiracy ferries about fit, since 413 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 1: we've been covering this on our podcast of the week. 414 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, I got a new one, by the way, 415 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 1: go ahead. Oh no. Sometimes sometimes that person on the 416 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: website is trying to get twenty five or twenty eight 417 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: guys and change up their little drop down menu so 418 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: that they switch on the first day of the league year, 419 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: and sometimes you miss one person, and sometimes that might 420 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: just happen to be Larry Fitzgeld. So sometimes it's just 421 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: an user error and it means absolutely nothing. So I'm 422 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,239 Speaker 1: glad you gave me a chance to clear that up. 423 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: So that's your statement on Lariy Fitzgerald right there. Absolutely 424 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: nothing is that what you're saying, Deed. I mean, ultimately, 425 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 1: well if I mean, I've heard you on the radio 426 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: in the morning. It's funny that they were trying to 427 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 1: get you to text him the other day because I'm not. 428 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: Somebody said that after one of the national reporters texted 429 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: him and they said, how come you're not texting him? 430 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 1: I'm like, so what for him to reply and say, 431 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: I haven't made a decision. I want to save my 432 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: text to Larry Fitzjoe when I could actually get something 433 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: out of it and actually have a conversation, and I 434 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 1: don't want to, you know, lean on him. And quite frankly, 435 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 1: he's He's a smart enough guy. He's not the guy 436 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 1: who's going to be giving people stuff on the side. 437 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: But he's just not So what's the point. I mean, 438 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: I think at this point we're just all gonna have 439 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 1: to wait it out. And I do think there's probably 440 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: a small part of him that kind of enjoys everybody 441 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 1: wondering what he's going to do. I think Larry's that 442 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: kind of Sally disagree. I totally disagree what you're making 443 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 1: him solid. He's Brett Farve. I just listen. I will 444 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: tell you guys this right here. Um, I did text him, 445 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that. And I was like, Larry, 446 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: I promise you, we'll never ask you anything about it. 447 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 1: What you will turn it into a bit. We're we're 448 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: asking you everything except the question that everyone wants answered, 449 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: are you going to retire? He said, we'll turn it 450 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: into a bit. We'll do it funny, right, And he 451 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 1: texted back and didn't even acknowledge anything that I had said. 452 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: He just said, I hope you and the family are 453 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 1: doing well. One time I texted it after I was 454 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 1: at the combine and he had just redone his contract 455 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 1: and I said, hey, congratulations on your new contract. I'm 456 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 1: wondering if you might be willing to give me a comment. 457 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 1: And he texted back and he goes, my comment is 458 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: that I love you, Darren, but not because I worked 459 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: with you or anything, but because you happen to share 460 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: the same birthday. Is it's beautiful? Well, I know you 461 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: want to know. Well, So my theory last week was 462 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: because Fitz was snowboarding, he was done because that violates 463 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 1: his contract. Thou Shalton not snowboard in the off season. 464 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: So if you're snow and then it was pointing out 465 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: to me, well, he's not currently under contract, so he's 466 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: not beholding or prohibited from snowboarding. So my one this 467 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: week was his long lines. And Darren knows this is 468 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: why all of a sudden and NFL Films put out 469 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 1: that ancient reel of Larry Fitzgerald as a ball boy 470 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: for the Minnesota Vikings, and then shortly thereafter his good 471 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 1: buddon golfing pal Patrick Peterson signed with the Vikings. So 472 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 1: my latest theory is, wait a minute, is this all 473 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 1: in anticipation of Larry finishing his career in Minnesota, in 474 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 1: his hometown, going right back to where he used to 475 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: run drills after practice with Chris Carter and Randy Moss. 476 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: And to that, you say, what, Darren, I'm going to 477 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: say the same thing to you I said on the podcast, 478 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: which is, you know, I'm enjoying your conspiracy series and 479 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 1: it's gonna, I guess continue. But you're a crazy man, no, 480 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: you know what. Honestly, Okay, speaking of crazy man right here, 481 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 1: what do you think of Colt McCoy actually being scheduled 482 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: to actually come in and make a visit with the 483 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. I have to admit I was struck by 484 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 1: Colt McCoy at thirty four years of age as a 485 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:07,919 Speaker 1: possible backup to Kyler Murray. It's an interesting name. I 486 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: do think that they've been on the search for a 487 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 1: veteran quarterback since free agency opened, So it doesn't surprise 488 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: me given some of the names that are already off 489 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: the board that you're looking at it. I mean, we'll 490 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: have to see how that turns out. But it's always 491 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: nice to have some kind of veteran. I mean, he's 492 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: been in the league for long enough that you would 493 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: think he'd be good in the quarterback room next to 494 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,719 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray and kind of, you know, telling him some 495 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 1: things that a veteran quarterback can don't. I don't think 496 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,640 Speaker 1: that that would hurt the situation at all in terms 497 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: of the development of Kyler Murray. I wonder when the 498 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 1: Cardinals playing the Giants last year and Colt McCoy seeing 499 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 1: action when Danny Dimes went down, if all that film 500 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: they looked at Colton McCoy getting ready for that Giant's 501 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: road trip, if they saw something they liked and they said, 502 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 1: you know what this guy, and let's face it, if 503 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 1: Colton McCoy would have been in the game guys in 504 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: week seventeen. What do you think I mean? So, I 505 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: think maybe there's cause and effect there a little bit, 506 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: and we'll see. According to the report, he might be 507 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 1: an Arizona Cardinal by next week. So Darren, appreciate the 508 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: time and entertaining our conspiracy theories. And so there'll be 509 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: one next week hot off the front burner for you. 510 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 1: And as Darren urban all about You, presented by Santan 511 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: Ford and Gilbert Paul, we'll continue with another big Red 512 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: Rage flashback and we'll get into what's next to the 513 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 1: Cardinals this offseason on the boot Red Rage and the 514 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 1: Hail Mary by Green Bay was topped by the Hail 515 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 1: Larry by the Arizona Cardinals, and I think we need 516 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: to hear it everyone.

Tim Hovic himself actually got government approval 523 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 1: from the City of Chandler to put it in the 524 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,119 Speaker 1: parking lot and the Red Sea five six seven thousand 525 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: fans strong most definitely put the Big into Big Red 526 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: Rage before the twenty fifteen NFC Championship Game.

I think about being up on that stage 533 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,719 Speaker 1: with a rookie named Tyrann Matthew and Tyrn taking us 534 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: through his youth and his upbringing, his dismissal from LSU, 535 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: and you could hear a pin drop. I mean, the 536 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 1: crowd was absolutely silent with it, did every word he said. 537 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: We'll remember who was. September two thousand and eight and 538 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: Anquan Bolden got knocked out literally in the end zone 539 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: at the New York Jets.

Two weeks later he's 541 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: on the Big Red Rage and his mouth is wired shut. 542 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: He had just got out of the weight room and 543 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: he played that week. It was like two weeks he 544 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: missed and he was back. I mean, don't get me 545 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: started on the quane.

Then we'll kick it to him and 548 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,719 Speaker 1: Bertrand Berry And if you remember, one of the bigger personalities, 549 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: wasn't one of the bigger players of the bigger names, 550 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: Robert Tate. He was known as Top five. At any moment, 551 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: he would give you a top five list his opinion, 552 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: top five any category like top five pizza places in 553 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: the world, like he'd have it ready. And so here's 554 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: Bertrand and an Quhan talking about Robert Tad, who was 555 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: known as a bit of a businessman on the side. 556 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: When you have a nickname top five, you automatically set 557 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: yourself up for all kind of ribbon, you know what 558 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 1: I mean.

He rints out his molepad, rents to 563 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: the family band. After things given, they have the blowout sale. 564 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: Robert Tate is at Walmart four o'clock in the morning 565 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: to buy twelve hundred dollars Appliasma TV buys about four 566 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: of them, comes to the locker room and try to 567 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: sell him to the teammate for about two three thousand dollars. 568 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: This is your boy, this is Top five.

He was not a very fancy dresser, 576 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: remember that.

That reminded me of a guy who 579 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: played with Steve Everett, who used to be a center 580 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: with the Cleveland Brown Steve Everett. We called him Spawnee. 581 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: He once played a game with two broken hands. He 582 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 1: was a center. By the way at Michigan UM. A 583 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: guy that just was incredible had hair down to his butt. 584 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: Polly and Steve Everett was just crazy. The same thing. 585 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 1: The guy showed up on a groad trip where he 586 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: had shorts on and a toothbrush was actually stuck in 587 00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: his pocket.

There we was and 588 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: once again, this is showing number five hundred in the 589 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 1: history of the Big Red Rage. And there were shows 590 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 1: where I think I suffered a rib injury. I was 591 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 1: laughing so hard. Clark Haggins was one of them. Larry 592 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: Foote was another one, talking about all the old man 593 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: jokes he got from the rookies, and he would tell 594 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: the rookies in the locker room, Yeah, but I might 595 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: have dated your mom, so you better back off, and 596 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 1: stuff like that.

Seismic shift is what the 658 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 1: owner of the Cardinals said a week or two ago 659 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 1: about the salary cap. They're making their team better over there. 660 00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: You got to respect it around Kyler and Cliff Kingsbarger. 661 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 1: That's Pat McAfee show. As Yes, the Cardinals made national 662 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 1: headlines with that trade for Rodney Hudson, sending the third 663 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: rounder to the Raiders getting a seventh rounder and Rodney 664 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 1: Hudson in return, a trade that, according to Steve Time, 665 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 1: took quote a matter of minutes. He said he was 666 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: quote shocked to see that Rodney Hudson was about to 667 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 1: part ways with the Raiders, and instead of trying to 668 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 1: contend with all everyone else out there if he got released, 669 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 1: he picked up the phone and called Mike Mayak and boom. 670 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 1: That's the essence of a deal. Here on The Big 671 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,439 Speaker 1: Red Rage, the five hundredth edition of The Big Red Rage, 672 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 1: and the Cardinals. They're checking a lot of boxes so 673 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 1: far this offseason, are they not, Ron Wolfley, Yeah, Paully, 674 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 1: they really are right now. And once again their offensive line. 675 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 1: I'm really excited about the offensive line, in the direction 676 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 1: of the offensive line, Polly, because I think it speaks 677 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: volumes as to how the Arizona Cardinals are going to 678 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 1: go about their business in twenty twenty one. The fact 679 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: that they got Rodney Hudson for two more years, Pauli 680 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,240 Speaker 1: at nine and a half and ten and a half, 681 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,239 Speaker 1: you're talking about a Pro Bowl center right now, a 682 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,799 Speaker 1: guy that is an unquestioned leader in that locker room, 683 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: a guy that is going to be a great mentor 684 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:11,400 Speaker 1: for Kyler Murray. I am just absolutely stunned. That is 685 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 1: Steve Kim's opus, his magnum opus. We know what that is, 686 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:18,800 Speaker 1: the d Hop trade, no doubt about that, but his opus, 687 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: Steve Kimes opus, has got to be the Rodney Hudson deal. Yeah. 688 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 1: I mean you're talking about a guy who's allowed ten 689 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 1: sacks in ten years. Think about that, a guy who 690 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 1: hasn't had a false start since twenty sixteen, when you 691 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 1: had four at that positional loan last year, sobotic Paul. 692 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 1: So they're obviously looking forward to that. They identify that 693 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: as a need. They filled that and maybe exceeded expectations 694 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 1: with a Rodney Hudson. And then we got news this 695 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 1: week and he's going to have a new linemate we 696 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: figure at right guard, although he'll get competition from another 697 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: guy who they inked as well, Brian Winners and Max Garcia. 698 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: Here's Steve kind the GM on those two. The addition 699 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: of Brian Winners excites me. He's a guy that I've 700 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: watched for years, dating back to Kent State when he 701 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: came out really physical player, smart, really good quickness in 702 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 1: a short area, and I think he does a great 703 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: job in pass protection, so he's a guy that certainly 704 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: will have a chance to compete. And as well as 705 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 1: signing back Max Garcia, who can play guard or center 706 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: for us Hey. Max Garcia played in fourteen games for 707 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 1: the Cardinals a year ago. But Brian Winters Wolf an 708 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 1: eight year veteran, He has eighty eight starts under his bell. 709 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 1: He started all three playoff games for the Bills last year. 710 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: What do you think this does for the Cardinals line? Well, 711 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 1: it brings an awful lot of experience to the Arizona 712 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,239 Speaker 1: Cardinals offensive line, and it brings a lot of physicality 713 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,320 Speaker 1: as well. Pauli, I would say when you think of 714 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,880 Speaker 1: Brian Winners, the one thing I think of first is 715 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: not only how smart he is an experienced he is, 716 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,240 Speaker 1: but just the fact that he's a very physical player. 717 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,800 Speaker 1: And there is a there is a theme that is 718 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,400 Speaker 1: running through this locker room and all of the moves, 719 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 1: most of all the moves the Arizona Cardinals have made 720 00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 1: in Steve Kime, and it is all about the physicality. 721 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,320 Speaker 1: This team is going to be much more physical, I 722 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: believe on the line of scrimmage, on both sides of 723 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,880 Speaker 1: the ball, going forward. It's a mentality. They've got a foster, 724 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: it's a mentality they've got to cultivate. And so much 725 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 1: of that has got to do with the type of 726 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 1: guy you bring into the locker room, Polly, do you 727 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: bring these guys in and dogs are dogs? Man, and 728 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: you bring them into a locker room, they start barking? 729 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,759 Speaker 1: So do you think this is a tell? Do you 730 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 1: think this is an indication that it's going to be 731 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 1: a different offense this year? I think so, Polly, I do. 732 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,400 Speaker 1: I think it's going to We're going to see more 733 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,759 Speaker 1: traditional elements offensively. I believe that mixed with the new. 734 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 1: Of course, Listen, you don't want to handcuff Cliff Kingsbury. 735 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,440 Speaker 1: You don't want to do that. You want to use 736 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: all that creativity, all of that intellect. You want to 737 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 1: bring that to bear. But I think, especially with the 738 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Polly winning the Super Bowl and winning 739 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 1: it the way that they did by lining up and 740 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 1: pounding the football once again right in time, Brady throwing 741 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 1: the ball using seven man play actions, throwing the ball 742 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 1: down the field, the bash and bomb offense with a 743 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: little more underneath throws and across the middle throws with 744 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. Listen, you know what a copycat league this 745 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:17,719 Speaker 1: league is, and now all of a sudden, you're gonna 746 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 1: get a lot more traditional elements. I think, a blending 747 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: of the old and the new. I can't wait to 748 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: see it, frankly, because I think it's gonna be cool, 749 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,359 Speaker 1: and I agree with you. But at the same time, 750 00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: you know, these are guys who excel in pass blocking 751 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 1: as well. We know Justin Pugh that's his forte. He 752 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 1: took the haircut, he went down to four million dollars. 753 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: He tweeted that out. He took a salary reduction. Okay, 754 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 1: Rodney Hudson, we cited his pass pro stats. Brian winner, 755 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: Steve Kim, he cited that as part of the scatterport 756 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 1: of Brian Winners, he excels and pass blocking. Kelvin Beacham, 757 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:51,399 Speaker 1: you'd say, you know what, that probably he's probably better 758 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,320 Speaker 1: pass blocker perhaps than run blockers. Play action is a 759 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,320 Speaker 1: great way to go BALLI Play action is a great 760 00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: way to go, and that's where I think they're going 761 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,759 Speaker 1: to develop this all offense. Not the RPO was much, 762 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 1: but play action well, Kyler Murray asked for it at 763 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 1: least via a couple of cryptic tweets, right, so there 764 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,319 Speaker 1: you go. In fact, he did go ahead and texts 765 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: Rodney Hudson his new center right away after the trade 766 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:17,360 Speaker 1: was completed. We finish up the five hundredth edition of 767 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 1: The Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford in Gilbert 768 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,879 Speaker 1: Nickcamp the ball he got sicked by Wilson.

A lot of people, 785 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 1: you know, didn't expect you really to host the show, 786 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 1: and he said, I know, because that's why I did it. 787 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 1: That's why you guys everyone said I couldn't do it 788 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 1: or I wouldn't do it, and he hit it out 789 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 1: of the park. He was excellent. You know, he shows 790 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 1: the little personality of Adrian Wilson, does it not Poly 791 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 1: the gas man right there, just knowing the player that 792 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 1: he was and the way that he used to blow 793 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 1: up players.
