Boy, unleash the fiar. 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:05.880 You know the world is sideways when trading Deshaun Watson 0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:13.520 takes a backseat to trading stock in game Stop in 0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:19.440 AMC and Nokia in these I mean you thought Houston, 0:01:19.920 --> 0:01:24.640 the Houston Texans were a distressed operation, a failing operation 0:01:25.000 --> 0:01:27.160 that was forced to trade. Well, that is nothing on 0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:30.800 what we've seen on Wall Street and right about now, 0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:34.920 Texans ownership is hoping somebody inflates and pumps up the 0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:37.640 value of the Texans franchise like we've seen on Wall 0:01:37.640 --> 0:01:42.759 Street with some of these others out of you realize that, Paula, 0:01:42.880 --> 0:01:46.119 you are the king Wolf. How can you not correlate 0:01:46.440 --> 0:01:49.280 the big trade news that's out there with Deshaun Watson 0:01:49.360 --> 0:01:51.560 and the other trade news on Wall Street. Don't act 0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:53.680 like you don't sit around in your zubas all day 0:01:53.680 --> 0:01:55.920 in day trade Wolf, Come on now at the compound. 0:01:55.920 --> 0:01:58.160 We know no, don't do that. Are you kidding me 0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:00.280 right now? But you are right about the quarterback. So 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:03.640 the commodities that are the NFL quarterbacks that are out 0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:05.919 there right now? What do you want, Paula? You want old? 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.000 You want young, you want new, you want old? What 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:11.200 is it ball? I'll tell you what I don't want. 0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:13.560 I'm going to reverse engineer the answer to that question 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:15.240 here right off the top on the Big Red Rate 0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:18.160 presented by santan Ford and Gilbert. We are santan Ford, 0:02:18.160 --> 0:02:20.800 Paul kelvcre Ron Wolf of there our reverse engineer that 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:24.240 as long as Deshaun Watson doesn't end up with the Niners, 0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:27.640 I'm good that will crush me. I'm with you on 0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:30.399 that one. BALLI. Can you imagine if somehow, some way 0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:33.440 Kyle Shanahan and that offense and dare I say that 0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:37.519 defense gets Deshaun Watson as our quarterback? Right now? Wait? 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:39.920 What can we do? Paul? That is the question I've got. 0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:43.160 What can we do to make sure that never happens? 0:02:43.440 --> 0:02:45.639 Is there anything you can think of? BALLI? Is there 0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:48.160 anything you can do to segue on that one? Well, 0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:50.720 we could get Robin Hood to come in and stop trading. 0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:53.400 I mean, you know you could get you get these 0:02:53.400 --> 0:02:57.200 Wall Street trading platforms to come in and stop trading 0:02:57.400 --> 0:03:00.560 on the Deshaun Watson to San Francisco. Obviously there's something 0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:03.079 nefarious about Deshaun Watson ending up with a nine er. 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:05.200 So you know, the sec in Wall Street needs to 0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:07.280 step in. We can't have that happen. There's no way. 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:10.080 I agree with you, Pollie the Robin that was really 0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:12.320 good as well. Well, let me just say this, what 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:15.200 is Miami doing right now? What are the Dolphins doing? 0:03:15.520 --> 0:03:18.760 Will you start acting here? I want to see Brian 0:03:18.840 --> 0:03:22.200 Flores start acting here like a head coach who went 0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:25.280 ten and six on the season. They're in dire need. 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:27.760 Would you trade I mean to a tongue to buy 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:32.160 Lowa for Deshaun Watson. Basically, yes, absolutely, yes, you would 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:34.800 do that. Now Listen, they'd get a lot of draft 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:38.040 picks as well. But still I'd be all over that 0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:40.320 if I were the Miami Dolphins. Miami might have to 0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:42.680 get in line behind Carolina. Do you see the report 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:46.720 from the NFL network late today that Carolina is quote 0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:51.360 going to aggressively pursue Deshaun Watson, bring him back to 0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:56.160 the Carolinas obviously give them an identity for pretty much 0:03:56.160 --> 0:03:58.720 a no name team. Now would they have enough? I mean, 0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:01.200 would they have any interest? What's however? And Teddy Bridgewater 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:03.640 and what could they have? The number eight pick overall? 0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.560 Would that be enough? But once again, Wolf, what you 0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:12.880 need to fear is mounting speculation that because Nick Caserio, 0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:17.120 former New England executive, a guy who is key in 0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:22.159 drafting Jimmy g oh No, now that he is running 0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:26.839 the Texans, he would have significant interest in bringing Jimmy 0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:30.560 g to Houston, both as his quarterback and as an 0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:33.240 example of the sort of New England asked culture that 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:35.880 he would want to establish with the Texans, and that 0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:39.279 would be the launching point. Jimmy g in a trade 0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:41.240 with the forty nine ers they would put to Sean 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:44.280 Watson with the I just I just can't believe in 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:46.719 what are the forty nine ers really gonna give? What 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:49.760 would they have to give up their next three first 0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:54.200 round picks, their next four? I mean, honestly, what would 0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:58.479 that be? Paulie nick Bosa. Well, here's the thing, though, 0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:02.320 Deshaun Watson has a no costs So to what degree 0:05:02.400 --> 0:05:05.400 can he just deny some of these other trade partners 0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:08.800 and dictate the direction the team to which he's traded. 0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:10.680 And so if he wants to go to the West 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:12.880 Coast and he wants to be in a Kyle Shanahan 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:17.600 system's polly, he's hurt their leverage. He's hurt the Houston 0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:20.599 Texans leverage. Fight coming out and making this public that 0:05:20.880 --> 0:05:24.560 he's demanding a trade. By the way, we'll talk to 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:28.360 a guy who spent his career chasing quarterbacks, Sam Acho, 0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:30.920 the former Cardinal, will join us on the Big Red Rage. 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:33.520 Just getting roll and all presented by satan Ford and Gilbert. 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:42.320 We are Satanford first and ten on the Cardinal twenty 0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:45.680 snapped to Murray, drops back the throw looking deep, airing 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:47.839 it out middle of the field. He's got Kirk. It's 0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:50.520 caught at the forty Kirk and the thirty. The twenty 0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:55.719 fifteen ten five tout down toun eighty yards strike Tyler 0:05:55.839 --> 0:05:59.800 Murray to Christian Kirk two touchdowns for kerk Now in 0:05:59.839 --> 0:06:04.720 the game. Oh baby, that was huge right there. Kyler 0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:09.240 Murray saw Christian Kirk and he just ran the go 0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:13.800 rob What a great throw. Kyler Murray laid it out 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:18.520 there and Christian kirk what got it. I'd say if 0:06:18.520 --> 0:06:21.160 there wasn't a guy named DeAndre Hopkins who had an 0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:24.280 array of ridiculous catches this season, that might have been 0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:27.640 the catch of the year. Christian kirk you think wolf 0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:29.600 the fact that he caught it on a dead sprint 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:31.760 and remember the late hands. He called it right, just 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:33.360 shot him out there at the very end and got 0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:36.440 it by the by the tip of the football. Yeah. Absolutely, bally, 0:06:36.560 --> 0:06:38.680 especially at first half of the season. For the most part, 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:42.560 Christian kirk Man was odd fire and then he kind 0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:44.719 of faded in the second half. And that's something we're 0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:47.039 going to talk about tonight. Yeah, that was the game 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:49.080 at Dallas and Cardinals one thirty eight ten to the 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:52.600 first three possessions, three punts, and then they scored touchdowns 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:56.640 on their next four possessions and ran away with that game. 0:06:56.720 --> 0:06:58.960 But as Wolf mentioned here on the Big Red Rage 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.800 presented by Santan barn and Gilbert, we are Santan Ford. 0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:06.440 There was DeAndre Hopkins and everyone else basically the second 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:09.200 half of the season when it came to receiver production, 0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:11.720 and because of that, the Cardinals made a change. Sean 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:14.840 Jefferson is the new wide receivers coach. A guy who 0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:17.040 played the position for nearly a dozen years, a guy 0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:20.520 who's coached the position for more than a dozen years. 0:07:21.000 --> 0:07:23.080 You tell me, Wilf, I mean, what sort of cred 0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:25.920 does he bring to being a receivers coach considering all 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:28.600 his experience at the position. There's no doubt about it, Paulie. 0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:31.520 This is a great thing, especially when you're talking about 0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:34.480 the skill position. When you're talking about the skill positions 0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:38.000 and the National Football League, both offense and defense, the 0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:40.679 further you get from the ball is when you start 0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:45.800 considering the skill right when you start talking about wide receivers, 0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:49.680 and I would say cornerbacks dbs in particular, right there, 0:07:49.920 --> 0:07:52.920 those are the skill positions. To me, running back obviously 0:07:53.040 --> 0:07:55.880 quarterback obviously, but that's a whole different animal in and 0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:59.119 of itself. The wide receiver position. I think you need 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:02.960 that credibility that Sean Jefferson has that he played the 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:06.200 game thirteen years. This is a guy that was a 0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:09.480 contemporary Balie. This is a guy that I know, Sean Jefferson. 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:12.960 He was a great pro Paul. This was a good 0:08:13.160 --> 0:08:16.320 football player, a guy that had a long career, and 0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:18.640 that definitely I think is going to resonate in that 0:08:18.760 --> 0:08:22.080 room with the wide receivers that he has. Well, Look, 0:08:22.280 --> 0:08:26.320 players know players, players know the coaches who played. You 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:30.640 just commented on that, and Bertrand Berry had something to 0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:33.440 say about that earlier this week on the Red Sea Report. 0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:36.240 To have somebody in there that has been through it 0:08:36.280 --> 0:08:38.640 and done it, that holds a certain amount of weight, 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:41.800 and that holds a certain amount of cachet. Dee Hobbin 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:45.080 and Kurt and all those guys are going to really 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:48.400 try to better themselves. And what better way to do 0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:51.600 that than learned from a guy who played as long 0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:54.679 as coach Jefferson did. Last couple of years with the Jets, 0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:57.080 he was also the assistant head coach to Adam Case 0:08:57.920 --> 0:09:01.120 and Wolf, I'm guessing that I think I tackled him 0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:02.840 a couple of times. Paully, I think if I'm not 0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:05.760 if I'm not mistaken, I think Sean Jefferson actually a 0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:09.040 return punts for the Chargers, and I think I tackled 0:09:09.080 --> 0:09:11.560 him on more than one occasion. Paul, you know you 0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:13.880 know what that reminds me of. I'm gonna take everyone 0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:16.920 back to the introductory press conference of one Ken wizzen 0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:20.880 Hunt and Ken wizzen Hunt finishes a press conference, he 0:09:20.960 --> 0:09:24.400 comes off the stage, walks down the aisle, sees Wolf. 0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:29.240 He stops going Wolf, don't hit me that Ken Wizen. Well, 0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:32.440 we had some battles, wizzon. I there's no doubt about that. Pollie. 0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:34.400 I think he still has a bruise on his sternum. 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:40.480 So once again you get the change at the position coach, right, 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:42.720 Whizz you know I love you. If you're listening for 0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:45.200 some reason, I love you. And if Dave Pass was here, 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:47.560 he would confirm what I'm about to share now is 0:09:47.559 --> 0:09:49.920 whenever Wolf runs into a former teammate on the road 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:53.640 or at a stadium, we always Dave usually asked Wolf afterwards, 0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:56.080 did you fight that guy? Did you fight that guy, 0:09:56.240 --> 0:09:59.120 I know exactly, but you know there was something too it, Polly, right, 0:09:59.160 --> 0:10:03.840 there is something the experience in knowing that this guy 0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:07.960 that is coaching you has he's been through the fire man. 0:10:08.080 --> 0:10:11.119 He has been through the fire, he's been through the hardship. 0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:14.480 That listen, Paul. They always say this, you got to 0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:18.480 reach somebody before you can teach somebody. The fact that 0:10:18.559 --> 0:10:23.160 Sean Jefferson played goes a long way towards reaching somebody, 0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:26.600 opening them up and then being able to teach them. Okay, 0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:29.320 so are they trying to reach Andy Isabella? They're trying 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:31.560 to reach Christian Kirk. To what degree? Is this a 0:10:31.600 --> 0:10:34.839 message for that wide receiver room, the players in that room. Yeah, 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:37.079 there's no doubt it is, Polly, It's a message. I 0:10:37.559 --> 0:10:40.640 cannot help but think a Christian Kirk. Paully, you know 0:10:40.679 --> 0:10:42.720 how much I love this kid, and I know you 0:10:42.840 --> 0:10:46.079 like him as well, And how, oh my goodness, he's talented, 0:10:46.120 --> 0:10:48.800 this guy, this guy, I think the first half of 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:51.280 the season showed exactly what he could do, and all 0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:53.520 of a sudden you're thinking, this is it. This is 0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:57.000 the breakout year for Christian Kirk. And then the second 0:10:57.000 --> 0:11:00.920 half of the season, and for whatever reason, he faded 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:04.240 in the second half. And I don't know, but I 0:11:04.280 --> 0:11:08.200 think Christian Kirk fading in the second half had a 0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:10.480 lot more to do with David Rye being let go 0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:15.600 than even Andy Isabella. Well, he's too good, he's too 0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:19.640 skilled to be a non factor too often. It just 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:22.480 it just didn't make sense. There were too many games 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:25.520 that ended and either he didn't have enough targets or 0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:28.960 he didn't have enough production, and you gotta just let 0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:32.800 impact the gas. So and that's a pair of second 0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:36.440 round picks and Christian Kirk and Andy Isabella. So obviously 0:11:36.559 --> 0:11:41.160 they're looking for more return on investment. So look, if 0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:44.240 they can maximize their skill set, that's a great fit 0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:46.680 for this clipkinks very passing offense. You got a figure, 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:50.000 we'll get an idea of what you know? An outsider, 0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:53.600 thinks a former insider. How about sam Acho, the former 0:11:53.640 --> 0:11:57.439 cardinal not just a former linebacker, a speaker, a writer, 0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:04.760 that's all. Next in the Big Red Rage, Tom steps 0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:07.439 up gets sacked at the twenty six yard line by 0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:10.520 sam Acho. It was Acho that came in and leveled 0:12:10.520 --> 0:12:12.880 a quarterback and forced the fumble, and he brought the 0:12:13.040 --> 0:12:16.959 Tomahawk rhythm steps up, gets head and sacked. It's Sam 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:20.920 Macho again, his second sack of the game. While Sam 0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:23.280 Macho have a day and the ball comes out of 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:26.880 the thirty yard line, it's recovered by Ajo. Acho forced 0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:29.319 to fumble and he recovers it at the twenty eight 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:33.440 yard line, his second force fumble. He also has two 0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:36.440 sacks and now a fumble recovery man and gets rid 0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:39.160 of it. Tip picked off Byacho at the twenty five 0:12:39.240 --> 0:12:42.360 yard line. Ryan hit as he grows, deflected and pittercepted 0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:45.280 Byacho at the thirty three yard line, Pondered to pass 0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:50.200 with time pumps, rolls left being chased and ball flutters 0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:54.079 and a diving interception Byacho at the twenty nine great 0:12:54.160 --> 0:12:58.360 play by Sam Hacho. Three career interceptions. By the way, 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:01.520 it says here on his staff's page, Wolf, I think 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:05.960 of Sam Macho. I think a big plays in big moments, 0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:13.160 big impacts, starting his rookie year, seven sacks as a rookie. Smile, yes, 0:13:13.720 --> 0:13:16.280 big smile. I mean you know on the field, in 0:13:16.320 --> 0:13:19.240 the locker room, that impact. We know the difference he's 0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:22.719 made in the community, that is on question. And then 0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:25.040 not only with the media, but as a member of 0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:26.720 the media. Wolf. In fact, this might be our last 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:28.400 edition of the Big Red Rage because of the time 0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:30.040 we're done. You know, they'll probably offer the show to 0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:35.040 Sam Macho, Right, Sam, welcome. How are we doing, man, Paul? Well, 0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:39.080 I am doing great and I am so glad to 0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:42.679 be back on with you all. This brings me great joy. Yes, 0:13:42.760 --> 0:13:45.800 hearing the highlights that brought me great joy, but man, 0:13:45.880 --> 0:13:49.280 hearing y'all's voice is really great, great joy. Sammy, Man, 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:51.600 so much love and respect for you and I can 0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:56.360 I can literally feel the smile coming thro yes on 0:13:56.480 --> 0:14:00.400 this broadcast. Brother. How's the family doing, man, We're doing great. 0:14:00.480 --> 0:14:03.000 We're doing great. Ever since that rookie year with seven sacks, 0:14:03.000 --> 0:14:05.200 Since then, I've played the last the next nine years 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:07.839 in the NFL. I got married after three kids, a 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:10.040 six year old, a four year old, and a two 0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:12.600 year old solo. Life has changed in a lot of ways, 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:16.319 but one hundred percent for the better. That's awesome, Sammy. 0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:18.640 So you're running the up tempo with three young kids 0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:22.080 at your house, there's no doubt about absolutely absolutely what 0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:24.800 you got left. Sammy. You gotta play left for when 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:27.720 you give me one I don't know, but I don't know. 0:14:27.760 --> 0:14:28.880 I don't like that, you know, I don't. I don't 0:14:28.880 --> 0:14:30.480 want to give away my play. Like a good defensive 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:32.400 coordinator or a good coach, I'm not going to give 0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:34.080 away my plays. But I'm gonna tell you what you 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:38.320 show you what we got, and then we'll go from there. Now. Wait, 0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:41.000 didn't you sent out a tweet within the last few 0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:43.560 days something about Tampa and the first team ever to 0:14:43.600 --> 0:14:45.960 host the Super Bowl in their home stadium and you 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:49.360 know you're available of Ba's in need. Oh yes, I 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:52.200 absolutely sent that tweet. But there's more to the tweet. 0:14:52.240 --> 0:14:54.400 I wish that Twitter had more than one hundred and 0:14:54.440 --> 0:14:59.400 forty characters, because here's the deal. Wolf and Paul exit 0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:02.760 interviews last year, twenty nineteen season. I just finished up 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:04.800 with Tampa Bay and I'm sitting down with BA. Mind you. 0:15:04.880 --> 0:15:07.520 BA was my coach in twenty thirteen and twenty fourteen 0:15:07.520 --> 0:15:09.560 with the Arizona Todd Bowles was my coach as well, 0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:11.760 so we had a relationship. They had me come to 0:15:11.800 --> 0:15:15.280 Tampa played well. Exit interview. BA looks me in the 0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:17.200 eye and says, hey, Sam, we love what you did. 0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:20.080 We want you back next year, and so I'm like, 0:15:20.280 --> 0:15:22.760 all right, let's go. Now this is pre Tom Brady, 0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:25.240 before Tom got signed. I'm like, all right, this is exciting, 0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:27.200 this is good. Well, then all of a sudden, Tom 0:15:27.240 --> 0:15:29.840 Brady becomes available and they decided to sign him. And 0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:33.480 Gronkowski becomes available and they decided and LaShaun McCoy and 0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:36.560 Leonard Ford and all these guys are Letterford that become 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:39.160 and they decided to sign him. And so anyways, I'm 0:15:39.160 --> 0:15:41.240 still waiting on that call. So I tweeted at BA 0:15:41.360 --> 0:15:43.600 and I said, hey, BA, you said you wanted me back. 0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:46.240 I'm available. I'm ready, I got my jersey. Whatever you need, 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:49.800 just one game and I'm ready to rock and roll. No, 0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:54.160 that's great. What did he say back? He hadn't responded yet. 0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:56.440 I'm notout. Have an army if people like retweet it 0:15:56.760 --> 0:15:58.840 so that he can get it. I made a video. 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:01.560 I think I'm kidding. I made a video with my 0:16:01.680 --> 0:16:04.880 Buccaneers jersey and my wife was like, send it to BA, 0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:07.400 and I'm like, I don't know, you know, And so 0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:11.800 I'm I'm plotting. I'm plotting. I'm getting ready. But I tweeted, 0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:13.800 I tweeted it. I tweeted it a few days ago. 0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:15.920 I got the video ready. I'm gonna send it to 0:16:16.160 --> 0:16:19.480 at least the linebackers coach Larry Foot. You remember Larry Foot, 0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:22.920 of course he was my COACHNA send it to Foot, 0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:24.920 see what happens. I'm gonna send it to Coach Bowls. 0:16:25.200 --> 0:16:27.120 And then lastly, BA will be the last place I 0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:31.600 was gonna say, Sam, don't bea off the hug. This 0:16:31.760 --> 0:16:34.000 fat to the fire, and you know what, we'll get it. 0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:36.040 We'll get into the Super Bowl a little bit later, 0:16:36.120 --> 0:16:39.160 we'll get into your book that's out, your brand new podcast. 0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:41.720 It's gonna drop. But but give us some thoughts on 0:16:41.800 --> 0:16:45.160 the Cardinals two twenty. I know you know it's from Afar, 0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:47.920 but as a former Cardinal and a guy who knows 0:16:47.960 --> 0:16:49.960 the game inside and out, do you have any takeaways 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:52.880 from this year in the Cardinals eight and eight campaign. Yeah, 0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:55.280 it was well so obviously former cardinal and now I've 0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:57.200 been in the media a little bit, so I've been announced, 0:16:57.240 --> 0:17:01.120 I've been I've announced games, I've watch games, and and 0:17:01.440 --> 0:17:08.240 for me it was exciting seeing the the the ability, 0:17:08.400 --> 0:17:11.040 we'll call it that, the ability of Kyler Murray. Right, 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:15.159 He's unbelievably talented. But then you've got you have to 0:17:15.200 --> 0:17:17.359 go through that matturation process that we saw. If you 0:17:17.440 --> 0:17:20.159 remember what Russell Wilson went through from his year one 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:22.960 to hear's your two. In twenty twelve, Russell Wilson's first year, 0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:25.760 he was a solid quarterback, right, wasn't doing outstanding, was 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:27.680 trying to help, trying to figure out how to read 0:17:27.720 --> 0:17:31.320 defense as well. Twenty thirteen, fourteen fifteen, he became this 0:17:31.520 --> 0:17:34.720 expert at reading defense. And I think that's where Kyler 0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:37.680 Murray needs to grow now. Obviously, being an Allen in 0:17:37.760 --> 0:17:40.640 high school in Texas right where I'm from, winning championships 0:17:40.680 --> 0:17:43.359 and then going to college winning championships, not losing games. 0:17:44.200 --> 0:17:47.119 It's good, but there comes a point where you get 0:17:47.160 --> 0:17:49.280 to play the biggest and the baddest and the best 0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:51.440 of the best, and you have to up your game. 0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:53.520 Talent alone will no longer get you there. And so 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:56.159 what he needs is to kind of help, just just 0:17:56.480 --> 0:17:59.399 film watching and helping having someone teach him how to 0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:02.040 read defense and not get trapped by you know, I'm 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:04.119 you know, look at the Patriots game right getting getting 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:06.920 trapped by good coordinators. I think that's that's an area 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:10.520 he can improve offensively because his offensive starts and stops 0:18:10.560 --> 0:18:13.679 with him obviously having hoped there was amazing, and then 0:18:13.720 --> 0:18:17.080 defensively as well. Right Like, I feel like I feel 0:18:17.080 --> 0:18:20.520 like Patrick Peterson obviously is phenomenal, and and Buddha Baker. 0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:22.240 You got all these guys. But the part that gets 0:18:22.320 --> 0:18:24.480 me this is more of like a general manager perspective. 0:18:24.520 --> 0:18:28.080 But man, there's so many talented players who left, right 0:18:28.560 --> 0:18:32.600 Chelais Campbell's, Tie Matthews, even the Tony Jeffersons. There's so 0:18:33.000 --> 0:18:36.399 many talented players who left. And I understand we have 0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:38.240 young rookies who are solid, but I just feel like 0:18:38.280 --> 0:18:40.439 we got to find a way to keep the talent 0:18:41.119 --> 0:18:45.200 here in Arizona. Speaking of keeping the talents here in Arizona, 0:18:45.840 --> 0:18:47.879 Chandler Jones, what are your what are your thoughts on 0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:50.879 Chandler Jones? Now, obviously you missed the entire season, but 0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:53.280 so what do you think you of Chandler Jones as 0:18:53.320 --> 0:18:55.880 a pass rusher when you watch him on tape? Oh, 0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:58.000 he's phenomenal at one point in his career, and probably 0:18:58.000 --> 0:18:59.479 if he would have been healthy, you could always make 0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:02.199 the argument that he's one of the best pass rushers 0:19:02.240 --> 0:19:04.800 in the game and obviously Marcus Golden on the other side. Like, 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:09.280 there's so much talent there and so the injuries don't help, right, 0:19:09.320 --> 0:19:11.600 We talk about that injuries don't help. But man, when 0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:13.360 Chandler Jones is out there and he's doing the same 0:19:13.400 --> 0:19:15.600 thing in New England. When he's out there, he's a 0:19:15.760 --> 0:19:18.800 dominant force. And so there's no if, hans and buts 0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:22.960 about it. You need him out there. His son Reddick 0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:25.720 and we're on board with Sam Acho, former Cardinals pass rusher, 0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:28.560 as Son Reddick is a guy who exploded in his 0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:31.200 fourth year. His fourth year in the league, there was 0:19:31.240 --> 0:19:33.600 a position switch. He's back to the edge. He doesn't 0:19:33.600 --> 0:19:36.200 have the prototypical size, but he's put on wade and 0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:39.399 you look at some of the analytics and he was 0:19:39.520 --> 0:19:42.480 top ten in most every category at his position, a 0:19:42.560 --> 0:19:45.359 position you know, real, well, what should the Cardinals do 0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:50.240 now that because Son Reddick is bound for unrestricted free agency. Yeah, well, 0:19:50.280 --> 0:19:51.879 he's a guy you gotta keep, right like, he's a 0:19:51.920 --> 0:19:53.879 guy you have to find a way to keep. And 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.960 obviously people talk about hometown discounts. As a player, you 0:19:57.080 --> 0:19:59.199 never want to take a hometown discount, right, I understand 0:19:59.240 --> 0:20:00.960 we care about the team, but you want to do 0:20:01.080 --> 0:20:03.280 the best for you and your family and your future. 0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:06.159 But I think that when you when you look at 0:20:06.160 --> 0:20:08.400 what her son, Reddick was able to do, multiple multi 0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:12.240 fack games, changing the game, helping Arizona win, I think 0:20:12.280 --> 0:20:13.720 you have to find a way to keep him. He's 0:20:13.720 --> 0:20:16.119 at a natural position, he's at outside linebacker number one. 0:20:16.160 --> 0:20:18.800 And yes, people say it's it's not necessarily he's not 0:20:18.880 --> 0:20:22.720 the prototypical size, but neither was Dwight Freeney. Neither was 0:20:22.960 --> 0:20:27.400 Robert Massis. There's no real, in my mind, prototypical side. 0:20:27.400 --> 0:20:30.680 It's all about how effective are you as a pass wresturant. Yeah, 0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:33.960 James Harrison comes to mind right there. That's an zebrical 0:20:34.040 --> 0:20:38.120 guy right there. Sammy, What about physicality? Is it still 0:20:38.280 --> 0:20:41.160 in vogue in the National Football League to be physical 0:20:41.320 --> 0:20:43.440 on the line of scrimmage? Do you still have to 0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:47.480 be that in order to win? Oh? Absolutely absolutely. In 0:20:47.920 --> 0:20:50.359 twenty eighteen, I was a part of the Bears defense 0:20:50.600 --> 0:20:52.240 that was a number one ranking defense in the league. 0:20:52.240 --> 0:20:55.960 And obviously in twenty fourteen and thirteen our Cardinals defense 0:20:56.040 --> 0:20:58.280 with Todd Bowles, we were a top five defense in 0:20:58.320 --> 0:21:00.600 the league, and it all started in stopped with not 0:21:00.640 --> 0:21:04.280 only physicality as you mentioned Wolf, but also with fundamentals. 0:21:05.080 --> 0:21:07.840 Physicality and fundamentals, and it's boring, right, no one wants 0:21:07.880 --> 0:21:09.919 to talk about the fundamentals. But you can be as 0:21:10.000 --> 0:21:12.320 big and as fast and as flashy as you want 0:21:12.359 --> 0:21:16.080
