I'd say we got pretty good 13 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 1: time in here this week. Given the news of the day, 14 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: we are fortunate here on the Cardinals Reds Report presented 15 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: by Seat Keet. Get your seat in a seats to 16 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 1: have a former teammates Tom Brady with us. It is official, 17 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:10,479 Speaker 1: Drew Brady is done retiring after twenty two seasons and 18 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: you are part of some exclusive company. As far as 19 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: being teammates with him, it was what two months, a 20 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 1: month and a half. I mean, but yeah, case you 21 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: might have missed it. Tom Brady done after twenty two seasons, 22 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: the past two seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and 23 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: Drew you were with him last season and a Super Bowl. 24 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: I know you've got some great thoughts on him. I 25 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: mean we were teammates for all of six weeks. But 26 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: six weeks, okay. But in saying that, to see the 27 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: way he worked each and every day, there was not 28 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: a minute wasted and there was no surprise. I think 29 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: more than anything. As you hear about guys and not 30 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: just Tom, but a lot of guys that have played 31 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: for at a high level for a long period of time, 32 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: and so you already have these preconceived notions of who 33 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: they are, how they operate, those were just reaffirmed. I mean, 34 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: you know the way that Tom went and put everything forward, 35 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: and I know myself at the same time, though he 36 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 1: accomplished way more in his career, I knew what it 37 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: took for me to be able to be a part 38 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: of a team to survive as long as I did. 39 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: And all the studden you start having kids and you start, 40 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 1: you know, wanting to be around your wife more and relationships. 41 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: And when you feel like football starts going down the 42 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: level of importance, then that's probably time to step away. 43 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: And that's really where my measuring stick was is I 44 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: gave everything that I had to this game for thirteen years, 45 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: and I just didn't want to do it at the 46 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: same level anymore. So I knew I owed it to 47 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: the organization that was paying me, my teammates around me, 48 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: all those things. So I would I would, you know, 49 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: venture to say that's where Tom was at, and if 50 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: you read between the lines of what he was saying, 51 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,679 Speaker 1: that's how he landed where he was. It's unfortunate that 52 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: ESPN had to try and take this information and run 53 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: with it because he was trying to pay respect to 54 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: the game that has given him so much of the 55 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: championship games, which I think was great, and so the 56 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 1: back and forth and the trying to be the first 57 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: one to announce it, it's the little disheartening. But at 58 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 1: the same time, as the era we live in, are 59 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: you at all surprised considering how well he played this 60 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: past season. I mean, he's going out leading the league 61 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: in completions, passing yards, passing touchdowns. He's still at the 62 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: top of his game. Yeah, I mean, but the guy 63 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: we see on Sundays, what it takes to be that 64 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: guy on Sundays Monday through Saturday isn't as easy as 65 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: it used to be. And the battles you fight. And 66 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: he's also smart enough to recognize each year is different. 67 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: You know, if you look at last year and what 68 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: he was able to accomplish apart from the New England Patriots, 69 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: he cemented his legacy and standing alone from Bill Belichick, 70 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: he did that. That's a huge measuring stick for him. 71 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: He's got all the pieces back in place of guys 72 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: getting coming back, and everything kind of fits in there. 73 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: And you're thinking, Okay, as long as we stay healthy, 74 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: we can go out there and maybe repeat again, and 75 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: then you ride off onto this on set. That wasn't 76 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: the case. Chris Godwin, who is as good as it 77 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: gets as a complete wide receiver in this league, is 78 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: blocking and doing everything in that system. He gets hurt. 79 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: That is a really hard person to try and fill 80 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: that void. And there's different guys you know that just 81 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: they weren't able to put it all together like that 82 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: championship run last year. And you take a step back 83 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: and you unwinding, you say, okay, do I have what 84 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: it takes to try and do it again? And obviously 85 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 1: he doesn't. So you know, kudos to him for being 86 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: able to make that decision right now. There's some other 87 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: guys that have some pretty lofty decisions. And when you're 88 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: aware that you are the face of not only the 89 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: franchise but of the NFL, people are fawning at your 90 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: every word and you are trying to do right and 91 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: that's an immense responsibility to do that. But he kept 92 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: his priorities, his priorities and stuck to his guns. And 93 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: now we can all sit back and talk about, you know, 94 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: the greatest quarterback or greatest player to ever play the game. 95 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 1: Is there something that stands out to you above anything 96 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 1: as far as accomplishments. I mean the one twenty two seasons, 97 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 1: but twenty full seasons as a starting quarterback. He missed 98 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 1: one season, well his first season he was the backup, 99 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: and then he missed one season basically the entire season 100 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: because of an injury. But in half of those twenty seasons, 101 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: half ten of twenty years he reached the Super Bowl. Yeah, 102 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: it's remarkable. And then you talk about not only that 103 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: the regular season. His playoff accomplishments, right, those are another 104 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: season or two almost and know of themselves of what 105 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: he's been able to do. So you look at this 106 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: man and his body of work, and there's nobody that 107 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: even comes close to that on paper. But I think 108 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: the thing that stood out most to me about being 109 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: around him for that time period is how meticulous he was. 110 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: He wasn't one step ahead everybody else, he was two 111 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: three steps ahead of everybody else. And the way that 112 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: he could rally the people around him, And I've talked 113 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: about it on this show before. He's never taking unnecessary hits. 114 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: The Peyton Mannings of the world, the Eli Mannings of 115 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: the world, the longevity they had is because they're not 116 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: fighting for extra yards. They're not the Carson lens Is 117 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: of the world that are going to take three guys 118 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: on for no unneeded reason. They're gonna stand in there 119 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: and make a throw when the game's on the line 120 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 1: and they have to, but more times than not, they're 121 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: even the way they finish their throws, right, They're finishing 122 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 1: and not putting themselves in harm's way or exposing it. 123 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: All of this is done for a reason of why 124 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: they're doing what they do, and it showed on why 125 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: they've been able to go out there and be some 126 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 1: of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play, versus some of 127 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: these guys that are so extremely athletic and gifted and talented, 128 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: but they rely on other things as opposed to being 129 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: a true student of the game and understanding situational football. 130 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: When can I take a sack here? When can I 131 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: get rid of the football? When do I throw it 132 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: away and not take a hit, When do I have 133 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: to scramble? I mean, we saw him scramble this year 134 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: and fight for extra yarders. That's a needed time, but 135 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: that's a calculated risk because of all these things. So 136 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: that's the lost art in playing this position, in my opinion, 137 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: because you see so many of these guys and we 138 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: get toughness misconstrued with being intelligent, because you get it 139 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: all bound up as saying, well, this guy doesn't want 140 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: to take a hit, or he's chasing ghosts, or he's 141 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: worried about any No, he's just smart and he's aware 142 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: that there's a sixty one now seventeen game season and 143 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: the best ability, as BBA used to say, is availability. 144 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: And Tom Brady was that in spades, not the most 145 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: talented player to play that position as far as arm strength, legs, 146 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: the entire package that we see on quarterbacks this day 147 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: and age ie Kyler Murray. But we mentioned it between 148 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: the years and the intelligence and knowing what's coming before 149 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: that play happens, and knowing where to go with the 150 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: football in split seconds. And as greats as Brady is, 151 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: there are four teams in which he does not have 152 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: a winning record against the Broncos, Seahawks, the Saints, and 153 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. Only two games he played against the Cardinals 154 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: never played at State Farm Stadium in the regular season. 155 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: He's got two Super Bowl appearances though at State Farm Stadium, 156 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: but never a regular season game against the Cardinals. That 157 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: one turned out pretty good for him last But yeah, 158 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: we had Jimmy g that first year, right, he came 159 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: in and made his first start. Yeah, Yeah, that was 160 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: I don't need to worry about twenty sixteen. Yeah, we 161 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: don't have to rehash that, but yeah, I mean, that's 162 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: that's quite a feat for what he's been able to 163 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: accomplish to be one of those teams. His win over 164 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: the Cardinals came at Sundevil Stadium and then the Cardinals 165 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: went to Foxboro and lost later on, but yeah, one 166 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: and one in his career against the Arizona Cardinals.

For some it's a big deal. For others 180 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: when you've been there several times, it's not a big deal. 181 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 1: But it is an opportunity I think, more than anything else, 182 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: drews for these players, whether you're in the NFC or AFC, 183 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: to kind of get together, maybe talk a little shop, yeah, 184 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: and some a little downtime yeah, you know, I think 185 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: that the approach and it's an honor to be voted 186 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: into that, and I think a lot of guys treated 187 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: as such.

And 197 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: I do all these things because I've had a lot 198 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: of friends that have played in them and been a 199 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: part of them and seeing them and just to get 200 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: that kind of talent in a room. You know, the 201 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: game is what it is, right Like, you're trying to 202 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: not get hurt, but they're having fun and they have 203 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 1: done some different events. I mean, my son was just 204 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: asking me about He's like, are they still doing dodgeball? Down? 205 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: You know, they've found ways to make it interesting with 206 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: the skills challenge, and it's just a neat way to 207 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 1: honor these guys and the families come. I mean, when 208 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: they had it here, Greg Olsen is a good friend 209 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: of mine. We went to the Biltmore and hung out 210 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: with everybody. It's just a laid back atmosphere and it's 211 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: so neat to be able to kind of wrap the 212 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 1: season up because you're not the team that's in then 213 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: going to the Super Bowl, but to be able to 214 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,559 Speaker 1: honor these individual accomplishments because those need to be rewarded 215 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: as well. And it wasn't a great finish to the 216 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: season for the Cardinals, but at least there's something for 217 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 1: those five players and fans of the Cardinals to kind 218 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: of look and say, all right, eleven wins does mean 219 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: something and is represented by those five players. Without a doubt, 220 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: some of them would have incentives in their contract, so 221 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: you know, that's another cherry on top if they did. So. 222 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: Kudos to them. Pro Bowl coming up on Sunday at 223 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: one pm an Allegian Stadium in Las Vegas.

After the flection, 242 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: Von Bells cut it and he's tackled at the forty five. 243 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 1: Cincinnati comes away with a huge pick and now the 244 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 1: Fangals with a chance to advance to the Super Bowl, 245 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: and they would in overtime upset in the Chiefs twenty 246 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: seven twenty four in overtime Evan McPherson a thirty one 247 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: yard field goal after Von Bell picked off Patrick Mahomes 248 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: on the third play of overtime, and yes, Kansas City 249 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,719 Speaker 1: did win the coin toss again. I an eagle on 250 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: Westwood One as we talk a little AFC Championship game 251 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: here on the Cardinals Red Seat Report presented by seat 252 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: Geek get your seats in a seat, Craig Reel, Drew Stanton, 253 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,199 Speaker 1: and Mike Drecky. First time in thirty three years, MJ 254 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: Cincinnati and the Super Bowl, first time since nineteen eighty eight. Yeah, 255 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: you know, it was refreshing to see Mike Brown hold 256 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 1: up the wholemar Hunt Championship Trophy, very similar to mister 257 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: Bidwell when he got to George Hallis Trophy. And you know, 258 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: you look at it, there were four eleven and one 259 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: last year. The year before they were two and fourteen, 260 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: and you got to give Zach Taylor. Obviously, Joe Burrow 261 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: is going to be a you know, guy's got a 262 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 1: bright future. But the fact is they go on the 263 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: road and they beat a quality team, they would interesting thing. 264 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,319 Speaker 1: Mahomes in the first half eighteen of twenty one, two 265 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,439 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty yards, three touchdowns, quarterback rating one fifty 266 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: four for four on third down. Second half eight of 267 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: fifteen fifty five yards, interception rating thirty four, two for 268 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: seven on third down. You got to give the Bengals 269 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 1: defense a lot of credit because he was night and 270 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: day from the first half. It was twenty three excuse me, 271 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: twenty one to three headed into halftime, and that first 272 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: half the Chiefs could do no wrong. I mean, they 273 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: were moving up and down the field, and we can 274 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: talk about the end of the first tap, but those 275 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: first three scoring drives true, I mean it was. It 276 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: didn't even look like the Bengals belonged on the football field. Yeah, 277 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,719 Speaker 1: I mean it was. It was unbelievable to see them 278 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: and how in rhythm they were of just picking up 279 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: from the week prior right of just going out there 280 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: and at will being able to do these things. But 281 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: it's a testament to that defense of those guys to 282 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: continue to come and stick to their rush lands and 283 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: do all these things. Because as good as Patrick is, 284 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: and he is marvelous at times. Sometimes it's the freestyle 285 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: right and you saw at the end of the game 286 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: where it becomes that and the number that stuck out 287 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: to me so much as these third downs right situational 288 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: football as we've talked about on their show numerous times, 289 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: and turnovers they lost the turnover battle of Kansas City 290 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: did and then completely flipped and third down where Cincinnati 291 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: offensively did a such a good job. And we talk 292 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: about Jamar Chase at length, and he is so tremendously talented. 293 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: I mean when they drafted him, I was like, how 294 00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: did they not draft an offensive lineman to protect their 295 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: f in Chinese quarterback? Well, because this kid was that 296 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: talented and that good. I mean, you get the ball 297 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: in his hands and can do those things. But not 298 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: only that, you look at the entire wide receiver group 299 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: and what they're able to do on third down. I 300 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: don't know how many third downcatches he had, but those 301 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: other guys, we're not getting the ball on third down. 302 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: And that's what kept the chains moving and kept them alive. 303 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: And again, this team just never felt like they were 304 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: out of it. They can't. They have come from behind. 305 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: That is who they are. You know, and not that 306 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: we want to compare everybody back to the Cardinals, but 307 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: the Cardinals never were able to get things going when 308 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: they weren't. This team is the complete opposite where they 309 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 1: never feel like they're out of it no matter what. 310 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: And the resiliency that it takes to be still playing 311 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: football right now is what you have to go through. 312 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: And these guys are battle tested. Their defense stepped up, 313 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: they're offense stepped up. And that rookie kicker, you know, 314 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: is the third dimension that nobody talks about because he's 315 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: making field goals, He's doing all of these things that 316 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: are game winners to put them in the super Bowl 317 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: now with a chance to win a ring. You mentioned 318 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 1: the decision that the Bengals made in the office. He's 319 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: going with wide receiver as opposed to offensive tackle. As 320 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: a quarterback, what do you prefer? Is there a preference 321 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: as a quarterback? Well, from the outside looking in, we're like, 322 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 1: why would they draft him because they have pennayshool still 323 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: on the board that can be a franchise tackle. Had 324 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 1: I been Joe Burrow and known that Jamar Chase is 325 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: as good as he was, and everybody was saying, oh, 326 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: he's better than Justin Jefferson coming out of LSU, and 327 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: everybody saw what Justin Jefferson's done now throughout the course 328 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: of his career. It's like, Okay, now I see why 329 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: they took him. And now that because even in the 330 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: first matchup in the end of the regular season, he's 331 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: throwing the ball up with supreme confidence that Jamar Chase 332 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 1: is going to come down with it. It is a 333 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins type of difference maker that you went and 334 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: got with the fourth overall pick because you have the 335 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: luxury of doing this, and these guys already have a 336 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: report together. It's not like they're building something out of 337 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: nothing that's already there. It's been established for the time period, 338 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: and he's already got the respect of everybody in that room. 339 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow does because he knows Jamar Chase from college, 340 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: and just that alone, I think is supremely underrated because 341 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: they've already been working on these nuances that sometimes take 342 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: a little bit of time to iron out. I'll say 343 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 1: this though, when when you look at pure lines, forty 344 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: yard touchdown before the half, that was really important because 345 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: now it is not twenty one three is twenty one ten. 346 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: But would you just look at from a standpoint of 347 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 1: you know what they've accomplished because they were went on, 348 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: got Trey Hendrickson, he was with the Saints, and a 349 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: lot of people question, why are you going there now? 350 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: I will say this though, they're gonna have to address 351 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: that offensive line now. He was sacked. He was sacked 352 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: eleven times. Two were negated, so he had nine sacks 353 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 1: and I guess his headset went off. So he was 354 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: actually calling plays in that Titans game. And obviously you 355 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: know Ryan Tannehill throws the three started the game with 356 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: an interception two in the second half, so you talk 357 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 1: about turnovers third down that costing the game. But it's 358 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what it's It's exciting if you're a 359 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals fan because it's been a long time and 360 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 1: here they are playing in the Super Bowl. No analytics 361 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: site that over and under it was six and a 362 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: half going into the season. They all got it wrong 363 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: and no one's going to give him any shot in 364 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: two weeks against the Los Angeles Rams. That's going to 365 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 1: be the narrative for the next two weeks. But you 366 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: look at Joe Burrow and what he was able to 367 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: do twenty three or thirty eight two hundred fifty yards, 368 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: two touchdowns, one interception, the first number one overall pick 369 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: to leave his team to the super Bowl in just 370 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: his second year. And here locally, Drew, it's okay, we 371 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: see Joe Burrow do it. Now, it's all right, Why 372 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: can't Kyler Murray or how far along is Kyler Murray 373 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: from doing the same for the Cardinals as Burrow did 374 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: with the Cincinnati Bengals. And keep in mind Kyler's a 375 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: year younger than Joe Burrow. Yeah, I mean, that's crazy 376 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: how it all sorts itself out. But Kyler's definitely in 377 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 1: that realm of possibility next year, right that you look 378 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: at everything, and I know that everybody's going to be frustrated. 379 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 1: And we've talked about on their show before. Okay, so 380 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 1: they get to a eleven wins next year, everybody's gonna beick. Well, 381 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: when's the collapse come in? And I don't think that's 382 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: anything that's all outside noise, and when next year comes, 383 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: you've got to be prepared for that. At this same time, 384 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: Kyler has that ability to gravitate people and pull everybody 385 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: along with him, and that's the most important part of leadership. 386 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: People believe in Joe Burrow, people believed in Tom Brady, 387 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: people believe in Matthew Stafford with the Los Angeles Rams, 388 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 1: that's one of the biggest components of playing this position, 389 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: that you're never out of a game because of who 390 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: the signal caller is for you. And it's going to 391 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: be very interesting because I've dealt with that defense before 392 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 1: and Aaron Donald, and if they gave up nine sacks 393 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: to that defense, I can only imagine, you know that 394 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: those guys are frothing at the mouth with a healthy 395 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: von Miller now and everybody else that they have. It's 396 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: a great game. It's a setup. It's a setup, a 397 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: matchup that nobody was really predicting, especially with a month 398 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 1: ago in the season. Nobody foresaw this happening. The two 399 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: number four seats to still be alive because we were 400 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: talking about how great Green Bay was and you know, 401 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 1: getting there healthy Derek Henry back. But it goes to 402 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: show turnovers matter so much in this league and the 403 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: margin of air is just it's minuscule at this point 404 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 1: because there's so much talent on the field. It's the 405 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: first time in Super Bowl history that you don't have 406 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: a top three seat, two four seats and usually the 407 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: sixth seat has been successful, and that would have been 408 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,199 Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty hours. The difference from me when 409 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: I watched Joel Burrow is the leadership and how he 410 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: commands the huddle and he's willing to sit in the 411 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,959 Speaker 1: pocket and make all the throws. And that's where Kyler's 412 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: got to grow up at his go through your progressions, 413 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,120 Speaker 1: you know, I think having Colton McCoy definitely has helped, 414 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: but they got to take the next step. But he's 415 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: this cool, calm and collective and you could see it, 416 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:43,959 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, I'm sure when they're losing, if 417 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 1: they pan him. We saw Patrick Mahomes sitting on the 418 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,959 Speaker 1: bench by himself when he was losing. Didn't look good, Brady. 419 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 1: So unfortunately when they go to the sidelines, but to me, 420 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 1: you could see they rally around Joel Burrow and it's 421 00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: contagious with that roster rallied from eighteen downs and the 422 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: largest deficit overcome in an AFC title game. And not 423 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: that the Chiefs are going anywhere, because they do think 424 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes now is I think among the younger quarterbacks 425 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 1: if you want to call him, that is still top 426 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 1: of the list when you talk about it, Joe Burrow 427 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: or Lamar Jackson, whom I mis Josh Allen. So it 428 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: doesn't look good, but you look at the AFC now 429 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: as far as young quarterbacks, it's it's a stacked roster, 430 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: it is, you know. And they talked about it last 431 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: year when they lost the Super Bowl of Patrick said, hey, 432 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 1: you know, even Kelsey was, We're here to win super Bowls. 433 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: We want to we want to do those things. But 434 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: it just goes to show they've been in four straight 435 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: AFC Championship games at home and have one Super Bowl 436 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 1: to show for it. So again, everything starts with the quarterback. 437 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 1: And you look at Joe Burrow, the maturity that he 438 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: has to be able to get up every time and 439 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: shake off those sacks and to keep his eyes down field. 440 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: We've talked about looking at the rush or pulling your 441 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: eyes down. That is a mental approach. You have to 442 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: be able to just have enough fortitude, Okay, I can't 443 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,479 Speaker 1: let this affect me. My eyes have to stay up. 444 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 1: And it's a learned trade and it's something you have 445 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: to stay in the pocket and do and Joe Burrow 446 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: naturally has that he's naturally gifted in that sense because 447 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 1: he's done it time and time again. But the AFC, 448 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 1: it's pretty impressive to see the number of quarterbacks that 449 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 1: are there that are young, up and coming guys that 450 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: can do it because everybody's going to be jockeying for 451 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: position come playoff time, and whoever's quarterback is playing the best, 452 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: I e. Joe Burrow right now, or Patrick Mahomes, Justusin 453 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: Herbert or Justin Herbert. I mean that is going to 454 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,880 Speaker 1: be so intriguing to see when we get down there. 455 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: But the NFC doesn't have slouches either. I mean there's 456 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: guys that can break open games and put a teams 457 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: on their back as well there too. The thing is, 458 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: though you look at the AFC, it's loaded. Now. You 459 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: hit Tom Birdie Peyton Manning and Ben Roethlisberger and then 460 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: Joel Flackel. Seemed like those are the guys that won 461 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 1: the championships, Dak Prescott, Matthew Stafford. If Rogers goes to Denver, 462 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: he's out of the conference, and then you throw Kyler 463 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: Murray in there. So the competition shouldn't be as much 464 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: as you have in the AFC. Yeah, it depending on 465 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: what happens with Russell. I mean he's played a pretty 466 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: high championship lab for a while, so can we get 467 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 1: him to the AFC two? Yeah, let's ship him. I mean, yeah, 468 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 1: just get him out of the division, right, I mean, 469 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: just get him gone. There's just a few quarterbacks right 470 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 1: there have Super Bowl rings right now, Yeaharon Rodgers, Russell 471 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 1: Wilson exactly. And it's because it becomes an entire team 472 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: game at that point too, right, Like you look at 473 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 1: ways to win championships and what guys need to do. 474 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: And to your point, last year, even with Drew Brees, right, 475 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: Drew Brees goes out and throws three interceptions when Tom 476 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,719 Speaker 1: throws one, and we still win a football game. When 477 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: I was on the Tampa bo Buccaneers in a really 478 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 1: tough atmosphere, much like Ryan Tannehill, they were playing well, 479 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: they were doing everything. He just had an off day. 480 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: You just can't have off days in the playoffs. Twenty seven, 481 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: twenty four, the Bengals top the Chiefs and over time 482 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: to win the AFC. They will head to Los Angeles 483 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: at SOFI Stadium four Super Bowl fifty six, where they 484 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 1: will play the Rams, who knocked off the forty nine 485 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 1: Ers in the NFC Championship game, and we will discuss 486 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: the NSC title game as we continue here on the 487 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: Cardinals Red Sea Report Present to buy seat Geek, get 488 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,959 Speaker 1: your seats in a seat.

Kevin Harland on Westwood One with 503 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 1: the call two Cooper Cup touchdowns, including that eleven yard 504 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: or sandwiched around a pair of Matt gay Field goals 505 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: to put the Rams ahead twenty to seventeen, and that 506 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 1: would be your game. Winners would continue here on the 507 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 1: Cardinals Red Seat Report, presented by a seat geek get 508 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: your seat in a seat, Craig Real, Drew Stenton, and 509 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: Mike Jarecki. God, I'm not gonna lie, Drew. I was. 510 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: I was really rooting hard for the forty nine ers 511 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: for whatever reason. It's I know it's a division rival, 512 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: but it would it would have been less painful for 513 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: me if the forty nine ers advanced. I'm a Bar 514 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 1: Area guy, then it for the Rams to be. I 515 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 1: don't know that about you. You have to figure out 516 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: his relationship with matthe Stafford. I know, no doubt exactly. 517 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: I mean that's that's all. It was just one person. Yeah, 518 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:18,159 Speaker 1: one singular person was all that was for sure. I 519 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: mean it was a lesser up too evil. I obviously 520 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,239 Speaker 1: wanted Matthew to win, having spent the time with him. 521 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 1: It did in Detroit, but you look at what they're 522 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: going to bring to that matchup too. I mean, San 523 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: Francisco was on borrowed time after what happened in Green 524 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: Bay when Jimmy like played as good as he could. 525 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: But if your thumb is messed up, it's hard to 526 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: go play quarterback and play at a high level. But 527 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: he did it admirably. He kept going out there and 528 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: doing it, um you know, and now the unknowns of 529 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: what's to come for him. But you look at this 530 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: duo that and you see Matthew and him on the 531 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 1: same page with Cooper Cup and it's from my perspective 532 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: as a quarterback, it is so marvelous to see because 533 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: Cooper always does the right thing. He's always where he's 534 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: supposed to be. And even the touchdown right, like most 535 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,719 Speaker 1: guys have a two way go. So this poor DB's like, okay, well, 536 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: if I play outside, I know he's going to try 537 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: and break inside and I can have half the inside. Okay, 538 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: if I play it inside and then he's going to 539 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 1: break out and I got sidelined for help that one. 540 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 1: He had a three way go, stutter stepped and then 541 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 1: went to the end zone and there was nobody there. 542 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just the beauty you have of that 543 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: versus even the week before against Tampa Bay, Right, I 544 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: talked to Matthew afterwards and he was like it was 545 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: a ball as he called by BA to bring zero. 546 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 1: But luckily I've got Cooper Cup and I know he 547 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,880 Speaker 1: knows coverage too and down the field to win the game. 548 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: And that's something that as sexy as his numbers are, 549 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: to be able to see it through the lens of 550 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: a quarterback at wide receiver and then go out and 551 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 1: execute it, you can't put a price tag on it. 552 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 1: You can't put any kind of measuring stick on a 553 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 1: guy that can go out and do it. And that's 554 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: why he's had the success that he's had. Now, after 555 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: that trade went down, how much struck time did they 556 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: spend together working out on the room between Cup and Stafford, 557 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: I don't know exactly. I know Matthew works tireless at 558 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: his craft and what he's doing. And the beauty about 559 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford is he is such a laid back individual. 560 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 1: He doesn't read social media, even though his wife's all 561 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: over social media, you know, and they're both great people. 562 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: He's just he's never been that way. And honestly, if 563 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: I was running a franchise, I want the Matthew Staffords, 564 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: the Carson Palmer's the Andrew Lux of the world that 565 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: don't read social media, that don't do any of that 566 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: other crowd, because that's all tied into the package. Because 567 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,959 Speaker 1: when you're out there and you're putting yourself out there, 568 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: everybody wants to know, like what's going on doing all 569 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 1: of it. These guys just stay focused. They do what 570 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: they do, and I know that. I mean, it's well 571 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: documented about how much time they would like spend eating 572 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: breakfast and talking about things, but picking each other's brains. 573 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: Matthew is a student of the game, and he's been 574 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: stuck in Detroit for a decade and nobody knew the 575 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: value of what he was because he's not a self promoter. 576 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: He's not doing any of this. But you can see 577 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: the joy in which he plays the game when he 578 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 1: goes out there and does it an extremely high level, 579 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: and he's just always the same guy. And that's what 580 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: you know. I've talked about it on the show. That's 581 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: how I want my quarterback. I don't I want to 582 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: be able to look at the quarterback and I don't 583 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: want to tell I we're up by fifty or down 584 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 1: by fifty. And with Matthew, you can't and you go 585 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: out and you play the next play, and you just 586 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: continue to plug away at things. And that's why he 587 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,479 Speaker 1: has been such an important piece because the pressure has 588 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: been on him. Everybody on the outside, Saint Matthew Stafford's here. 589 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: He's got so much pressure. There's nobody more. The guy 590 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: was owing three in the playoffs because he went on 591 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: the road to Seattle, on the road to Dallas, on 592 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 1: the road to New Orleans, and how's at that game? 593 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: Owe three in the playoffs. It's pretty reasonable to expect 594 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: at that point. When you're with the Detroit Lions, you 595 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: get home playoff games, you get all of this rapport 596 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 1: on top of that, and people look at him. And 597 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: when you look at the leader of your team and 598 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: he is unflappable, that team takes on that persona and 599 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 1: now three and oh this postseason run. But the biggest 600 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: stat is one turnover. And that's been his issue regular season, postseason. 601 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,719 Speaker 1: Is he's going to give you a couple of chances. 602 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: Now he should have been picked off. Oh, man, I 603 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: believe me. I was like no, And I'm like immediately, 604 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: I'm like, did Odell run the wrong route there? Because 605 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: there's two guys in the same spot. I'm trying to 606 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 1: blame everybody else because I'm a fan at that point. 607 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: Now I'll say this. Everyone wants to point to that play, 608 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: but there was there was still almost ten minutes left 609 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: to go in the ball game. So that did not 610 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: cost the forty nine ers or allow the Rams to 611 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: win it. It was one play magnified in the fourth quarter, 612 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: but there were still gonna be another position or two exactly. 613 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: And there's four, I mean four to five plays that 614 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: are going to determine every outcome. If if the wide 615 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: receiver from Notre Dame catches that ball number eighteen, I 616 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: don't remember his name for the Rams, whatever his name 617 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: was in the first half, if he catches that post 618 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 1: the Matthew threw a little behind. If he catches that post, 619 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: that's seven points. If they make the field goal, that's 620 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: ten points that they're up. So the ebbs and flows 621 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: of that game, I agree with you that one play 622 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: did not determine the outcome of the game. Now, had 623 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: he picked it off, it could have potentially changed it. 624 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: But that offense was in a mode of let's keep 625 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: it close and see if we can win, a type 626 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: of mentality of San Francisco because they scored on that 627 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 1: screen past the Deebo Samuel and they kept throwing it 628 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: and just getting him in space. I mean that he 629 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 1: is so extremely talented and what he does with his 630 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 1: skill sets so unique. But again, I don't think it 631 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: was one play that kind of set everything up or 632 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: anything like that. It felt like the Rams were in 633 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: control the entire time. It never felt like, oh man, 634 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 1: this game's in the balance, or it's gonna tilt over 635 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: to San Francisco. Not one play, but one decision, fourth 636 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: and two punt or go for it in that situation 637 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: if you're Kyle Shanahan, and I think that said more 638 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,959 Speaker 1: about the forty nine ers offensively n and say, all right, 639 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 1: I trust my defense more than right now Jimmy Garoppolo 640 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: and someone else to get those two years. And it 641 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 1: was a long as they like to say, there is 642 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 1: a difference there. It was a long two yards. Yeah, 643 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:48,719 Speaker 1: but we've talked about it before on their show too. 644 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: If you know you're in kind of that like gray 645 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 1: area of going for it, I don't think their third 646 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: down call is then to send Trent Williams in motion 647 00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 1: and try and blow somebody up and then hand it 648 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: back off to juice back underneath. At that point you 649 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: spread it out or you try and do something and 650 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: maybe put yourself in a better position, because that, like, 651 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: it was a long two even to begin with. It's 652 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 1: hard to say, but just as befuddling would be. Also, 653 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 1: then the Rams decision to challenge a quarterback sneak, and 654 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: they just looked disoriented at times. I mean it was like, 655 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: you know, Sean McVay was trying to prove that Shanahan 656 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: wasn't in his head the whole time, but it was 657 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: like it was almost like he was playing puppet master 658 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: at times of like, okay, challenge it here, and you know, 659 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: they tried to line up and do all this stuff, 660 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: and it was just interesting because it is a chess 661 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: match because they both know each other so well. But 662 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 1: I completely agree with Kyle's decision to punt the ball 663 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:41,959 Speaker 1: and try and rely on their defense because that defense 664 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: is extremely talented. They relied on it all year. To 665 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 1: Mico Ryan's has stepped in and done a tremendous job 666 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 1: with everybody there. And when you've got a middle linebacker 667 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: that's top two or three in this league, I mean, 668 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 1: he's gonna make a splash play for you and you 669 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: can do all these things, So that decision wasn't surprising either. 670 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: Twenty to seventeen, the final Rams rally past the forty 671 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 1: nine ers. They're in the super Bowl for the second 672 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 1: time and four seasons their fifth Super Bowl appearance overall. 673 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: And you've talked about it a lot of MJ that 674 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: this this was the season they pointed to this year 675 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: based off the decision to trade golf for Matthew Stafford 676 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: and then add A von Miller and add An obj 677 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: But don't forget those were depth reasons, not because they 678 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: were hurts at those two positions. They lost Robert Woods 679 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: the same day Beckham was signed, So that's just kind 680 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: of a happenstance circumstances on that. But this now we 681 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 1: talk about pressure. Yeah, all the pressure is on the Rams. Yeah, 682 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: but I'll tell you what I mean, they had a 683 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 1: target on their back. I think their owner Stan Cronky 684 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: made it very clear I don't want to see another 685 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: team play in this stadium in the Super Bowl, let alone. 686 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,719 Speaker 1: They hosted the NFC Championship game, and so I got 687 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 1: to give him credit because that was the goal. Just 688 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: like the Bucks last year, they went all in, obviously 689 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: getting Gronk out of retired and going after different players, 690 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: and Brady was obviously recruiting. So you got to give 691 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 1: Sean mcvaigh. I mean, he had that team rolling in 692 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 1: so and I see, I still think as long as 693 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 1: they got McVeigh and um, Matthew Stafford, I think the 694 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: Rams were still going to be the team to beat 695 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:17,800 Speaker 1: in the next couple of years. They're not going away, 696 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 1: so but I just look at it like Odell Beckham junior, 697 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: he fit right in. I mean obviously that you don't 698 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 1: worry about the chemistry and the route running and stuff 699 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: like that, but he definitely gave him a Levon Miller 700 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 1: game a lift. And then I took a lot of 701 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 1: pressure off for Aaron Donald Jalen Ramsey. He didn't have 702 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 1: to do as much as he did. So yeah, I 703 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: mean it was it was impressive. And trust me, I 704 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,280 Speaker 1: was I was not rooting for them at all because 705 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: they come across arrogant. But you know what, they proved. 706 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 1: They proved me wrong and everyone else were, hey, we 707 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 1: had a goal here and we're gonna try to achieve it. 708 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: And I do like Sean McVeigh, and I like maybe 709 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: it's just the way he but he doesn't with a 710 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: spile on his face and and with Aaron Donald, as 711 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 1: much as he's accomplished, it's the one thing that he 712 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 1: doesn't have is a super Bowl and just to cap 713 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: off his career. And you know there are players over 714 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 1: there that I do like. Just again, I wanted the 715 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 1: forty nine ers and there are just just us your 716 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 1: big area. And also working with the Arizona Cardinals. By 717 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: the way, when we talk about the Super Bowl in 718 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: our next segmenture, You're gonna love who I'm rooting for 719 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: in this Super Bowl fifty six might have some issues 720 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 1: here the Cardinals Red Sea Report presented by zet Geek. 721 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 1: Get your seats in a seat we will discuss Super 722 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 1: Bowl fifty six.

It's 726 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: God makes fair, second knocks it grow and the fairy 727 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 1: tale continues for the Cininnati Bibles. They are going to 728 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Go rockallmun the gun to snip to 729 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,280 Speaker 1: trip on the fun man rushing, he's her bump, he bunches, 730 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: He's hit again. The sick man. He comes in, he 731 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 1: SIPs and because he was talking, he just threw wad 732 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 1: hit them was intercept the Bay Howard, the rooms of 733 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: inter Cito Ground Bowl, the Rams who made quick moves 734 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:39,760 Speaker 1: with big names and took a big Campbell half cotten, 735 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 1: a huge, huge bilf Kirk corner the Super Bowl and 736 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: they're gonna take on the surprising Cincinnati Bugles here in 737 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:56,759 Speaker 1: Los Angeles and Super Bowl fifty six Sunday, February thirteenth. 738 00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:01,800 Speaker 1: I miss spoke earlier February thirteenth, four thirty on NBC 739 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:05,720 Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifty six Bengals and the Rams. You know, gentlemen, 740 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,880 Speaker 1: we went fifty four years without a team playing in 741 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 1: its home stadium in the Super Bowl, and now we're 742 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 1: doing it in back to back years. Last year Tampa Bay, 743 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,360 Speaker 1: this year the Rams so Fi Stadium. Butts I saw this. 744 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 1: Ian Rappidports of NFL Network MJ tweeted yesterday that the 745 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 1: Rams are technically the road team well in this game. 746 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: That's because the alternate each year regardless of who's hosting. 747 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 1: So this year it's the the AFC team. But I 748 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 1: hope they get to use their own locker room and 749 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 1: they're not in the visiting locker room. That would be 750 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 1: an issue. Who knows. I mean, the white uniforms are 751 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:45,799 Speaker 1: kind of cool in my opinion. It's so good for them. 752 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,359 Speaker 1: Are you a uniform guy, Drew as long as they're 753 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: not like a huge uniform guy. But if they're ugly, yeah, 754 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: I mean there's someone that try and do too much. 755 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 1: What kind of super Bowl is just going to be 756 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 1: in La though, because you know the NFL network, you 757 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 1: can little walk from the NFL Network over to Sci 758 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: Fi Stadium. You gotta figure ESPN has been studying where 759 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: they're gonna be between the halftime show, all the parties. 760 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: I mean, this thing is going to be off the charts. Yeah. 761 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: I mean every time that they show the game, they 762 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: still show the stars that are there. It's like watching 763 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,840 Speaker 1: a Lakers game when I'm like, Okay, Leonardo DiCaprio and 764 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: a mask, awesome, the sweet It's gonna be a lot 765 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 1: of fun coming up on February thirteenth. As we talk 766 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 1: about it here, we've got plenty of time. But this 767 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: is our our opportunity to get Drew's take on it, 768 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 1: and I know your heart says the Rams because of 769 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford. I'm rooting heavily for the Cincinnati Bengals just 770 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: because I do not want a division rival winning the 771 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: super Bowl. But that's just me. But my head is 772 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 1: telling me that the Rams are the better team and 773 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 1: we'll win this game. Yeah, I don't know. I mean 774 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 1: I always contend to root for players and not teams, 775 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: so I've been a Matthew Stafford fan. I don't I'm 776 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: not per se a Rams fan by any means. I'd 777 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: like to see a good football game. You know, as 778 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: we closed out the last segment, I was talking about 779 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 1: the arrogance of Sean McVay, and it bothers me the 780 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 1: fact that he's like, well, Jared Goss's not any good. 781 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: I want to trade him out for Matthew. So, I mean, 782 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 1: those are the things that you see that are, you know, 783 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 1: just not great ways to operate when you're the head 784 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 1: of an organization. But it's paying off in spades for 785 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 1: him right now because they could win a Super Bowl. 786 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 1: They're one of two teams left. I would love to 787 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,359 Speaker 1: see Matthew get a ring, but at the same time, 788 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 1: it's hard to bet against these Bengals. I mean, they're pesky, 789 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: they all three phases. They never feel like they're out 790 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 1: of a football game. And similar to this Cardinals team, 791 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: they have two elite young safeties that make plays. They're 792 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 1: very disruptive, they're very active. I mean they got the 793 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: one deflected the ball, the other one picked it off 794 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 1: in overtime to help set up their win. Those are 795 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 1: the guys that you need that are consistently showing up 796 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 1: on film. They're consistently leading and rallying the troops. Much 797 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,359 Speaker 1: like when Aaron Donald circled everybody up and said, when 798 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 1: you when those type of men dec everyone listens. And 799 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,479 Speaker 1: each one of these teams has those kind of guys. 800 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,799 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow has that kind of talent. It's interesting because 801 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:09,759 Speaker 1: both tight ends got hurt. Which one comes back because 802 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: they're both big pieces, and we saw what a detriment 803 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,759 Speaker 1: it is to you lose a all around tight end 804 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: type of a guy in the run game in the 805 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 1: past game and doing that, because that's a huge asset 806 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 1: in the middle of the field, especially when you're talking 807 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: about good safeties or different guys or matchups of where 808 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey's gonna go based off of who's out there. 809 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: And granted, the Cincinnati Bengals have three great wide receivers 810 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 1: that can each go over one hundred yards. Odell stepped 811 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 1: up and filled an extreme void of Robert Woods being gone. 812 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: But if Tyler Higby's not there, it's a lot easier 813 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 1: to cover two guys than three. There's so many great 814 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 1: storylines within all of this two number one overall picks. 815 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,799 Speaker 1: You do all of that, and it's the best part 816 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:50,840 Speaker 1: is as being a part of it last year, as 817 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 1: soon as the ball kicked off, it's football. It's football 818 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 1: for the guys that are prepared and the schedule that 819 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 1: this is is so different, so unique. The people that 820 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: can handle this two week time period and the segment 821 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 1: of it, those are the people that are that usually 822 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,319 Speaker 1: come out victorious. Because even last year when we were 823 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,600 Speaker 1: in Tampa, we practice that extended halftime and I was like, 824 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:11,640 Speaker 1: why are we doing? I was like, oh, this makes sense. 825 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: This is a thirty minute a half time or whatever 826 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 1: it is for TV ads, all of those things. So 827 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: no stone was left unturned with Tom Brady for this 828 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: two week time period. And I might have set that 829 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:27,239 Speaker 1: schedule to Matthew. Okay, wow, okay, take care of your 830 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 1: business before you get there, right, yeah, exactly. Now, I'll 831 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: say this though, you know, when you get to this 832 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: time of the year, you rely on your best players. 833 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: I thought the star players from the Rams and Bengals 834 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,879 Speaker 1: all stepped up and that was the difference where, yeah, 835 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 1: you're gonna have a maybe a guy that's been a 836 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 1: backup and he gets throwing the ball. But when your 837 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 1: star players play like a five star players, it showed up. 838 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:48,879 Speaker 1: And that's the reason why these two teams are playing 839 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: in SPA now, Craig silver Lining. If the Rams win 840 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 1: it all, could the Cardinals say they lost it? The 841 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: best team in football? Yeah, you can always say that, 842 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 1: and then you hope maybe that it's the Super Bowl 843 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 1: hangover the next sea, and then they are and they 844 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: get too ahead of themselves and players who are free 845 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: agents want to get paid, and then all of a 846 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:09,400 Speaker 1: sudden it's a different Rams team in twenty twenty two. Okay, 847 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 1: maybe I can buy that. And the Bengals are never 848 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 1: going to be out. I mean, the Bengals have just 849 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 1: to get a chance another The line opened about three 850 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 1: and a half, but it's like, Okay, that can go 851 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 1: whichever way you want. Obviously, there were seven point underdogs before, 852 00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 1: so you throw all that out and it's the preparation. 853 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 1: It's who can stay in the moment. And Joe Burrow 854 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 1: has shown he has the resiliency to overcome. I mean 855 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 1: he stands in there and continues to make throws. But 856 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 1: Matthews capable of doing the same thing. It's gonna come down, 857 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 1: much like this first playoff game. Who can protect the 858 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 1: football and who can make the big plays. That's it. 859 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 1: How much of this is We kind of bring the 860 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 1: Cardinals red seat report present to buy seat, get your 861 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 1: seat in a seat full circle. We started this week's 862 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 1: show talking about Tom Brady and you look at his 863 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 1: first Super Bowl win going up against Kurt Warner and 864 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Rams. No one gave the Patriots any 865 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: show at winning that contest. Are we seeing now with 866 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: the Rams and Matthew Stafford. It's not the Patriots, but 867 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 1: it's a Bengals team led by young quarterback who was 868 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,920 Speaker 1: unflappable in the postseason. Yes and no, I mean you 869 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: can draw on all those storylines. I think that Zach 870 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 1: Taylor showed a great job of having these guys prepared 871 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 1: to play and if they get punched in the mouth, 872 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 1: they're not going to back down. And that's really what 873 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 1: you want, and you want to be able to be 874 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 1: clicking in every facet. They have relied on this underdog 875 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,919 Speaker 1: story for the entire longevity of the playoffs, besides beating 876 00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 1: the Raiders. But you know, they had to go in 877 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: and they had to play a good, clean football game, 878 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: and they did that against the Titans, and then they 879 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: were able to go on the road and weather a 880 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: storm of the barrage of offense that we all saw 881 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:47,279 Speaker 1: in that first half and then find a way to 882 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 1: win in the second half. They make adjustments, they do 883 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 1: all the things you need to do. So it's going 884 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 1: to be a really good game. And you know, quite honestly, 885 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 1: if I had to pick a winner right now, my 886 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: money would be on the Bengals. Okay, I remember MJ. 887 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 1: You know the Bengals after beating Baltimore in Week seven, 888 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 1: they were the talk of the league, and then they 889 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 1: went two and four and then they fell off the 890 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 1: base of the earth. Now all of a sudden, here 891 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 1: they are that underdog status and there, let's become a 892 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,800 Speaker 1: rallying cry they got a shot. I mean, who's the 893 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 1: most talented team, Well, who's plays the best on that date. 894 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: But I think both of these teams are physical and 895 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 1: they're gonna get after it, and I just hoping for 896 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 1: a really good game. By the way, Cincinnati school children 897 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: have the day off regardless on that Monday that was announced. 898 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:31,239 Speaker 1: That should be a national holiday. It shouldn't. I think 899 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 1: we're working our way towards that eventually. Here all right, 900 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:40,799 Speaker 1: so Bengals and Rams on Sunday, February thirteenth, and still 901 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:43,440 Speaker 1: plenty of time to discuss it.
