He missed us, Paul just 17 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 3: and he had to come back to see our smiling faces. 18 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 4: He reserves the right to leave it any moment, truly, 19 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 4: to check himself out of the game. So you got 20 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 4: to make sure you know you're putting some really credible questions, 21 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 4: all right out there, although I do have my head 22 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 4: on a swivel. It is April Fools, and Drew has 23 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 4: a long track record. We know this from his playing 24 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 4: days of pulling a prank or two. So if anybody's 25 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,479 Speaker 4: capable of pulling something in April Fools, it is Drew Stanton, 26 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 4: There's no doubt. 27 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 5: Well that was when I was a player. I'm matured now, 28 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 5: I see you know. I've come a long way, and 29 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 5: we're talking offense today, so of course I'm going to 30 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 5: show up. We're talking offense. 31 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 4: Guys, I've matured. 32 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 3: Do your kids know you've matured? Or you just left 33 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 3: that in the locker room? 34 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 5: They don't know how immature. I actually was my son's 35 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 5: twelve now, and so he asked this questions like that, 36 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 5: Why did not I just tell that story about how 37 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 5: I'll change the channel? 38 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 4: Yep, if Carson Palmer was around, we'd all be doomed. 39 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 4: But maybe separating it sort of like in class, you 40 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 4: couldn't have Carson and Drew sitting next to each other 41 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 4: in the same class. So now that there's separated, yeah, 42 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 4: maybe that maturity rises to the top. 43 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 3: It is good to see you, Drew. 44 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 5: Thanks well, it's good to see you guys in person 45 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 5: as opposed to just over a phone call. But you know, 46 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 5: much like the rule changes that we're about to dive into, 47 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 5: there's also rule changes in the locker room probably can't 48 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 5: get away with anymore. 49 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 3: So it's a true professional right there with the transition. Because, yes, 50 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 3: the annual league meetings happening as we speak in Palm Beach, Florida. No, Paul, 51 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 3: you and I did not get the invite. Darren Urban 52 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 3: is in Florida and you can catch his work on 53 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 3: Easycardinals dot com. But many of the items that had 54 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 3: been discussed leading up to the league meetings as far 55 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 3: as rules and proposed rules, there are a handful of 56 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 3: new rule changes, and we can go through this one 57 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 3: by one, Drew just kind of get your thoughts. But 58 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 3: is there one as far as the rules that have passed, 59 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 3: whether that's overtime touch back to the thirty five replay assists, 60 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 3: a little tweak in the free agency negotiating window, is 61 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 3: there one of those four that stands out above the rest? 62 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 5: Well, I think the one that is nice from an 63 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 5: offensive standpoint, being completely biased, is allowing both teams to 64 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 5: possess the football right, like all of these rule changes 65 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 5: are coming up each and every year to try to 66 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 5: predict what's going to make this game better for the 67 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 5: next upcoming season. That's why you see some of these 68 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 5: pass some of these fails, some are tabled for later. 69 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 5: But really what you want to do is provide the 70 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 5: best product. They are going to keep the fans engaged. 71 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 5: That's our lifeblood. So giving a fan base an opportunity 72 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,399 Speaker 5: to go out there and win a game, and those 73 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 5: become crucial, right you have a tie at the end 74 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 5: of the game, or you lose an overtime that can 75 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 5: be detrimental to you come December or playoff seating. So 76 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 5: you really want to give both teams an opportunity to 77 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 5: do that then, because most times you're watching, it's like, 78 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 5: what's the what's the rule? 79 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 6: Now? 80 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 5: What is it? A field goal? 81 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 6: Is it? 82 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 5: This? 83 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 6: Is it? 84 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 3: That? Is it? 85 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 5: Playoffs? Just make it the way that it is. The 86 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 5: other one I think that will be interesting is, yes, 87 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 5: we try to have this limited amount of human air 88 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 5: involved with the referees. It's moving fast out there and 89 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 5: the flags that are being thrown. That one will be 90 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 5: very curious to see how it plays itself out. 91 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 3: The overtime is the only tweak though, is versus regular 92 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 3: season In postseason, yes, each team will have a possession, 93 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 3: but instead of fifteen minutes in the playoffs, it's ten 94 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,039 Speaker 3: minutes in the regular season. But now a coin toss 95 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 3: doesn't necessarily mean the game is one or loss, depending 96 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 3: on if you call heads or tails correctly. 97 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 4: And look, it's you can argue, Okay, you gotta play defense, 98 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 4: and if Wolf was here, that's exactly what he would argue. 99 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,799 Speaker 4: But I'll go back to probably the most physical regular 100 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 4: season game I've ever witnessed in person twenty sixteen, the 101 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 4: six to six slugfest tie Cardinals and Seahawks. And you're 102 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 4: going overtime in that game, which it did, and under 103 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 4: the previous rules, right, the first team that possessed the 104 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 4: ball scores and they walk off that field the winner. 105 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 4: It just doesn't feel fair, to be brutally honest. So 106 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 4: it's just sort of a feeling, and you don't want 107 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 4: the fans coming away thinking, all right, we got robbed, 108 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 4: we got jobbed, we got ho So in this case, 109 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 4: I do like the fact that both teams and yes, 110 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 4: it matches the postseason rules. So wait a minute, if 111 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 4: it's good enough for the postseason. It should be good 112 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 4: enough for the regular season. According to the league, since 113 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two, teams that won the coin toss had 114 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 4: a thirty seventeen and two record, and that's pretty significant. Again, 115 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 4: you win the coin toss, you win the game. Now 116 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 4: it's okay, each team gets a possession. Now the one 117 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 4: that you talked about, Drew, that was the replay assists 118 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 4: to be able to go back and look at flags 119 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,679 Speaker 4: that are thrown for certain parts of play, like hits 120 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 4: on a defensive player, grabbing the face, mass horse collar, tackle, tripping. 121 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 4: But it is not intended to have a flag thrown. 122 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 4: It's only if a flag is thrown, you can go 123 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 4: back and replay it. And we were talking off air, 124 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 4: and you're seeing it now, certainly around March Madness in 125 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 4: college basketball, that under two minutes you go get every 126 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 4: out of bounds play and all of a sudden, that 127 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 4: two minutes becomes twelve, fifteen, eighteen minutes long. And maybe 128 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 4: the concern here is are more flood flag's going to 129 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 4: be thrown because it's well, let's just go back and 130 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 4: replay it or look in and see if it's reviewable. 131 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 4: Did we really make the correct. 132 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 5: Call exactly, you could equate it. So when they started 133 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 5: allowing turnovers to be reviewable, right now, you see it's 134 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 5: not even questionable that it's an incomplete pass. And defensive 135 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 5: coordinators are ingraining in defensive players scoop and score, scoop 136 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 5: and score, run to the goal line, do all this stuff. 137 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 5: The only thing is is, because again we're a fan 138 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 5: based business, that we have to make sure we're providing 139 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 5: a product that is upbeat, that is staying involved as engaged, 140 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 5: because you don't want these long drawn out timeouts or 141 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 5: anything like this that's going to slow down the pace 142 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 5: of the game. We were also talking about in baseball, right, 143 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 5: they're trying to speed the game up. This is an 144 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 5: entertainment for our fans and allows us to do what 145 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 5: we love to do. So you want to make sure 146 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 5: that you're keeping everything the way that it needs to 147 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 5: be and delivering the best possible product. 148 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 4: I was going to say, look, replay assist in this case, right, 149 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 4: can wipe out a foul if what was called incore, 150 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 4: if there's subjective evidence, if it's an objective call, whether 151 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 4: it's contact to the head or neck, whether there's a 152 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 4: face mask. But It's not going to be used to 153 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 4: throw a flag if a penalty wasn't called. So that's 154 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 4: the clear clarification you need there, because so many fans 155 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 4: are screaming for something. I want to know it's only 156 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 4: used in the case of error to wipe out a 157 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 4: call that was already made. 158 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 7: Yeah. 159 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 3: The other one that I would think you would like, 160 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 3: Drew based on your offensive past, is the fact that 161 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 3: now it's a touchback at the thirty five yard line 162 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 3: instead of the thirty. This would certainly mean maybe more 163 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 3: returns because you start at the thirty five yard long 164 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 3: you see how many teams have kickers that can kick 165 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 3: fifty to fifty five plus yard field goals, and all 166 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 3: of a sudden, you begin a drive at the thirty 167 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 3: five under two minutes, your two plays away from field 168 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: goal range. You don't need all two minutes, and all 169 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 3: of a sudden, the strategy at the end of the 170 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 3: first half and end of the game maybe changes a 171 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 3: little bit because drives are starting. Doesn't sound like a lot, 172 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 3: but those five yards I think can make a significant difference. 173 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, exactly. It can be extremely beneficial at any 174 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 5: portion of the game. And you look at it and 175 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 5: special teams. Coaches had to initially adapt when this rule 176 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 5: came in place of the new kickoff rules, trying to 177 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 5: make the game again safer and delivering a good product, 178 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 5: so they tweak it a little bit right here to 179 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 5: try to deliver more of an incentive to bring the 180 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 5: ball out if you have to. Again, they're trying to 181 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 5: still tweak all of these things, but if you can 182 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 5: gain those extra yards by staying in, you're going to 183 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 5: see more people saying, yeah, let's do that. Let's protect 184 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 5: the health of what's going on. Again, it remains to 185 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 5: be seen and they'll have to iron out some of 186 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 5: these details. 187 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 3: There was a fifty seven percent increase and a lower 188 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: injury rate in twenty four versus twenty three when this 189 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 3: dynamic kickoff return was a one year trial. Now it's 190 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 3: permanently a part of the league. 191 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 4: And look at these head coaches. They are low to 192 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 4: give up field position at the thirty five. I think 193 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 4: it is a big difference. You can say, oh, it's 194 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 4: five yards, but wait a minute. Two years ago was 195 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 4: the twenty five, and all of a sudden, it's thirty five, 196 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 4: And I think that's going to equate to a big 197 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 4: change in thinking and it might equate to a change 198 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 4: in drafting. For example, some of the mock drafts now 199 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,199 Speaker 4: of the Cardinals in round two going after the Iowa 200 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 4: State receiver Jalen Knowle. And he's a guy who was 201 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 4: first team All Big Twelve return team, right, I mean 202 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 4: he's a dynamic kick and punt returner. Are you more 203 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 4: apt to select someone like that a little higher in 204 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 4: the draft, because now you're thinking, you know what, We're 205 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 4: gonna have a lot more bites of that apple in 206 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 4: the kickoff return game. Cardinals have DJ Dallas. We saw 207 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 4: what he did in Week one against Buffalo, didn't get 208 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 4: a whole bunch. Opportunity's going forward. Now. Guess what, I 209 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 4: think it's gonna be a bigger part of the game plan. 210 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 3: Dallas averaged better than thirty yards of return last season, 211 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 3: which was a career high as first season with the 212 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 3: Arizona Cardinals. As far as rule changes that did not 213 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 3: make it did not pass, the Lions had proposed to 214 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 3: eliminate first down for defensive holding that does not pass, 215 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 3: and then as far as tabled for later the toush 216 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 3: push and the potential reseting of the playoffs, that was 217 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 3: tabled as well, Now the big talking point is the 218 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 3: push push because it's one team. Drew seems like the 219 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 3: Philadelphia Eagles have a competitive advantage, but now you're punishing 220 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 3: them for what no one else is capable of doing. 221 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 3: That's where I stand as far as they found a 222 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 3: way to be successful on fourth and short, so no 223 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 3: one else has, so let's just ban the play. 224 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, it's funny because there's a risk reward involved 225 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 5: with any play, right you put yourself out there and 226 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 5: you hear Jason Kelsey talk about it and he's like, man, 227 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 5: I hated that play. I mean it gets drying me 228 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 5: down in that pile, and you don't want to expose 229 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 5: your fifty million dollar franchise quarterback for one yard every 230 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 5: single time. That's why you'd see Tom Brady walk up 231 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 5: there and kind of just sneak attack and go get it, 232 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 5: move on, not really get hit too hard, find a 233 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 5: gap and go. You have Jalen Hurts. There's only so 234 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 5: many Jalen Hurts type of bodies that exist at the 235 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 5: quarterback position that can squat six hundred pounds right so 236 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 5: that you're going to be able to put that on 237 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 5: and get that yardage again. You see these head coaches. 238 00:10:58,000 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 5: They're starting to kind of come out in season. They 239 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 5: don't want to say, oh, well you know this isn't fair, 240 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 5: this is blah blah blah. No, you're seeing the head coaches, 241 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 5: I'll say, now, well that's not a real football play. 242 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 5: Well it is, because they're all under the confinements of 243 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 5: what a football play is supposed to be. They're snapping 244 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 5: the ball, doing everything completely legally and gaining an advantage. 245 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 4: So stop it. What about pushing from behind? Where do 246 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 4: you fall in that? If you can't pull a player forward, 247 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 4: for example, into the end zone, should I be able 248 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 4: to push someone from behind regardless of where you are 249 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 4: on the field. 250 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, well I don't think so. Right, everybody thinks about 251 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 5: Matt Lioner and Reggie Bush and what that looks like. Again, 252 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 5: we're trying to make this game safer. That is exposing 253 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 5: yourself to more injury, more risk for one yard, right, 254 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 5: what you're trying to give up. I am not a 255 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 5: fan of that. And you see some of that. You 256 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 5: see some of the offensive lineman come up and they're 257 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 5: battering rams, trying to extend plays and do all of 258 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 5: these things. Again, our livelihood is the ability to be 259 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 5: on the field and play the game and be healthy, 260 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 5: and that could be sometimes detrimental when you allow things 261 00:11:57,920 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 5: like that to transpire. 262 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 4: There's one person in this studio who has executed a 263 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 4: QB sneak. Do tell what is it like to be 264 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,439 Speaker 4: at the epicenter of that massy humanity when a rugby 265 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 4: scrum breaks out and you basically become the football glad 266 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 4: you asked, Well, the very. 267 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 5: First thing is is you've got to identify who on 268 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 5: my offensive line is going to help and protect me 269 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 5: and get any push. Then you're trying to find that gap, 270 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 5: and then you are taking that snap, securing and holding 271 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 5: on to dear life and getting whatever the necessary yards 272 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 5: is because all you want to do is make sure 273 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 5: that you get up with the ball. And luckily, you know, 274 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 5: we didn't have to do it very much. We had 275 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 5: some good running backs we could hand the ball to. 276 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 5: But it is not something that is talked about very 277 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 5: often because it gets pretty censored down there at times. 278 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 3: Was that Mikey Potti that you uh every time? 279 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, Mike would be my first choice, and he just 280 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 5: look at you with this smiles that I got you, Drew, 281 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 5: I got. 282 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 4: You two years ago when the toushblush started and the 283 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 4: Cardinals used it with Josh Dopps, and I asked him, 284 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 4: what's that? 285 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: Like? 286 00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:59,599 Speaker 4: You said, there's a point of no return where you 287 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 4: get ooked off into like a surfer into a wave. 288 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 4: You're off your feet and you're just going along for 289 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,359 Speaker 4: the ride because you know, thousands of pounds of humanity's 290 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 4: just sucking you forward. Or I mean, is that's sort 291 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 4: of what like at some point you're just off your 292 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 4: feet and you're you're just praying what's gonna happen next? 293 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 5: No, I never got to that point out getting down. 294 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, no doubt you need one. 295 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 3: Drew will get you one feed to hand the ball 296 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 3: off to somebody else herd Gang. Be the first to 297 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 3: see the Cardinals twenty twenty five schedule when it gets 298 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 3: released in May. Is it Azycardinals dot com forward slash 299 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 3: schedule for opponents and more information. It is a Tuesday, 300 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 3: which means it is the Cardinals Red seat report. Craig Reial, 301 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 3: Loop PULKLBC, Andrew Stanton. As we continue here, coming up 302 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 3: the offense seems like they're running it back personnel wise. 303 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 3: We get Drew's thoughts next here on the Arizona Cardinals 304 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 3: Radio Network. 305 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: Murray under center takes the snap and it's a jet 306 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 2: sweet dear side McBride, stiff far Man getting close to 307 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 2: the goal line. Touchdown. Fray McBride on the handoff. Mccride 308 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 2: is so good running the football, looking deep left, throwing, 309 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 2: McBride laying out and making a great catch at the 310 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 2: thirty eight, sliding to the ground there caught by mccride, 311 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 2: wrapped up croak and tackled off. And then he hurdles 312 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: a defender at the forty that was drunk ast You 313 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 2: can't control Trey McBride, looking deep left, throwing and between 314 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 2: four jets, the ball is caught by Trey McBride. Trey McBride, 315 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: you are a bad, bad man, are you kidding me? 316 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 3: Let the Cardinals in both receptions and receiving yards plus 317 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 3: head two touchdowns. That number certainly we hope goes up 318 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty five. As we say, welcome back, it 319 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 3: is the Cardinals red seer report here talking about this 320 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 3: Cardinals offense in twenty twenty five. Yes, Trey McBride, you're 321 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 3: leading receiver, but he plays tight Andrews, So how do 322 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 3: you get more out of your wife receivers. I think 323 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 3: that's the big question people want to know because as 324 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 3: you look at this offense moving into this upcoming season, 325 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 3: there's not a lot of newness. It's very same along 326 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 3: the offensive line, running backs, wide receivers, tight ends. So 327 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 3: you're basically with the moves made so far, you're telling everyone, 328 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 3: you're telling the Bird gang that what happened in twenty 329 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 3: twenty four not good enough. But with one more year, 330 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 3: especially with Marvin Errison Junior and company, this offense should 331 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 3: be able to take the next step. 332 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 8: Yeah. 333 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 5: What it tells me is they like their young skill guys, right, 334 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 5: you see not a lot of turnover and not a 335 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 5: lot of change. They wanted to develop those guys, and 336 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 5: that's one thing Moni has made a considered effort to 337 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 5: do is say, hey, we want to get you in 338 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 5: the system. We want you to grow in this system. 339 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 5: And so we still have the draft coming up to 340 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 5: see what's going to transpire. But you could also make 341 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 5: an argument it's not like Trey McBride is just a 342 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 5: non thread on the field, right. He is a difference 343 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 5: maker when it comes to it. So the fact that 344 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 5: he led the team in yards and receptions isn't necessarily 345 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 5: a bad thing. You'd like to see more production obviously 346 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 5: from that wide receiver room as a whole, but your 347 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 5: rookie year, when you're getting your feet wet as a 348 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 5: perennial number one wide receiver, it's an adjustment period. You 349 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 5: need to be able to identify coverage and not saying 350 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 5: that he wasn't asked to do all these things when 351 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 5: he was at Ohio State, but now he's comfortable. He 352 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 5: knows what the off season looks like. He's already had 353 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 5: an entire year of work to know what that's like, 354 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 5: and everybody talks about what a professional he is and 355 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 5: he is going to get it right, so there's not 356 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 5: much concern there. I would not be shocked to see 357 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 5: them add somebody, you know, somebody that can really take 358 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 5: the top off the coverage or open things up for 359 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 5: that mid level to alleviate the stress not only on 360 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 5: Marvin Harrison Junior, but also on Trade McBride. Right, you 361 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 5: need kind of that added dimension. You mix the run 362 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 5: game in, you stay balanced, and you do all of 363 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 5: these things. And that's really where you're going to find 364 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 5: success for Kyler Murray is when you can't hone in 365 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 5: on one thing, or try to make a conserted effort 366 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 5: to stop trade McBride, Where do you go from there? 367 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 5: You have to have a plan BC and D that 368 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 5: really allows you offensively to keep people on their heels. 369 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 4: Needs and wants, right, Craig, So there's needs and then 370 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 4: there's once I would say, wide receiver two not necessarily 371 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 4: a need, but perhaps it's a want. And I'm curious, Drew, 372 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 4: what would wide receiver do too? End up doing? For 373 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 4: wide receiver one? Marvin Harrison Junior, Meaning if you believe 374 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 4: some of the mock drafts, and let's just say, and 375 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 4: I don't believe this is a real possibility, Let's say 376 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 4: t mac Tetero and McMillan u of A falls due 377 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 4: number sixteen, maybe you trade down. You take Luther Burden 378 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 4: out of Missouri. Maybe at forty seven you take Jalen 379 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 4: nol we mentioned him out of Iowa State. Maybe just 380 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 4: maybe two months from now, Amari Cooper, still on the market, 381 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 4: has a connection to this front office. He signs on 382 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 4: the line that has dotted. What would that do for 383 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 4: Marvin Harrison Junior in year two? 384 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 5: You think, well, I think it just takes the stress 385 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,199 Speaker 5: off of him, right, you find somebody to control the 386 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 5: middle of the field with Trey McBride, what can you do? 387 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 5: Can you get them both on the same side. Can 388 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 5: you get Marvin Harrison Junior in the slot? 389 00:17:58,680 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 6: Right? 390 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 5: That's where you saw Larry make the transition when I 391 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 5: first got here, is he started to really become in 392 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 5: the slot. Because when you get those two guys and 393 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 5: you control both sides of the field in the slot 394 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 5: with Trey McBride and Marvin Harrison Junior, you can't double people. 395 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 5: You can't put a safety over the top of them 396 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 5: to be able to do all of these things. And again, 397 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 5: it's just year two in a system. We don't need 398 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 5: to hit the panic button for Marvin Harrison Junior. But 399 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 5: if he has somebody to alleviate that stress, somebody else 400 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 5: to dictate coverage or be able to set these things up, 401 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 5: to be able to create high lows and be able 402 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 5: to catch the ball and run and do all the 403 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 5: things that we saw him do at Ohio State, you 404 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 5: won't be surprised because you need to sit there like 405 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 5: a defensive coordinator mindset and say, when I pull up 406 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 5: the film of the Arizona Cardinals, what do I need 407 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,719 Speaker 5: to stop. Who's the guys that I need? Who are 408 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 5: the game wreckers quote unquote that I've got to sit 409 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 5: there and worry about besides James Connor and besides Trey McBride. 410 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 5: Obviously you need to bottle up Kyler Murray. You can't 411 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 5: let him do all the things that he needs to do. 412 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 5: But when you sit there and say, okay, we need 413 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 5: to be able to run them out of cover two 414 00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 5: when they're in these situations, that's great. You can do that. 415 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 5: Sometimes sometimes you can't. So what are you going to do? 416 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 5: You have to have an intermediate passing game, and the 417 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 5: best way to do that is have multiple wide receivers 418 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 5: that can get open and be able to really dictate coverage. 419 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 3: So moving Marvin around a little bit not just pigeonhole 420 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 3: him as the left guy or the right guy, but 421 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 3: you don't quite know where he's going to line up 422 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 3: on a particular. 423 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,439 Speaker 5: Play exactly right, because you're sitting there, and if you 424 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 5: have him on the outside the entire time, right, you 425 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 5: can put a corner down low, and you can put 426 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 5: a safety over the top, and then that really becomes difficult. 427 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 5: If he's playing X. If you move him over to Z, 428 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 5: and depending on what's going on there, and he's on 429 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 5: the strong side of the formation, predominantly same type of thing. 430 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 5: There's more guys at the party, right. It becomes a 431 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 5: number count when you really look at it and you're 432 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 5: breaking down coverages and saying, Okay, if there's two over 433 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 5: three here or we've got three over four, which side 434 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 5: do we go to? All things being equal, right, you 435 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 5: want to get as many guys as possible because there's 436 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 5: as many moving pieces to create those high lows in zone. 437 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 5: If it's a one on one opportunity, right, you're going 438 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 5: to take Marvin Harrison Junior every time, But they also 439 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 5: will shift the safety over the so to Paul's point, right, 440 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 5: the safety flies over the top to help with one 441 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 5: on one on Marvin Harrison Jr. You need somebody that's 442 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 5: going to win one on one with no safety help. 443 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 5: And that's really where you can get an advantage with 444 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 5: a strong number two wide receiver. 445 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,199 Speaker 4: And I do believe that Cardinals over the course of 446 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 4: the year began to really learn how many different routes 447 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 4: he's capable of running in different ways to use Marvin 448 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 4: Irrison Junior. He himself mentioned in Week seventeen and eighteen 449 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 4: that some of his success to finish the year was 450 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 4: because of different routes were incorporated into the game plan. 451 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 4: I know coming out of the by Jonathan Gannon his 452 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 4: TV show, told us he'd like to see a little 453 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 4: better success rate outside the numbers with Kyler Murray. And 454 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 4: then Kyler Murray second last week of the season said, look, 455 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 4: it can be better. It will be better. It should 456 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 4: be better. My connection and we know, you know a one 457 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 4: hundred and sixteen targets, sixty two catches that is definitely 458 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 4: on the checklist going into next season. They want to 459 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 4: improve that efficiency. And you bring up Kyler. It's the 460 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 4: second year with Kyler and Marvin working together. It's Kyler's 461 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 4: seventh season in the league here with EOS the Cardinals. 462 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 4: This offseason spending some time in Korea, and was asked 463 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 4: on KBS World his approach going into twenty twenty five. 464 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 7: The work is being put in. I don't take too 465 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 7: much time off. The older I've gotten, the less time 466 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 7: I take off. You know, I took about a week 467 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 7: off from you know, after the season, just to you know, 468 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 7: I guess, let the body rest a little bit, but 469 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 7: I got right back into it. 470 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 4: Started grunning. 471 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 7: I'm really looking forward to the season because, yeah, I 472 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 7: know we're capable of I know, you know, I feel 473 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 7: like I haven't even scratched the surface of what I 474 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,160 Speaker 7: can be and what I can do in this league. 475 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 7: I'm super excited. 476 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 3: The one significant offseason move as far as the offense 477 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 3: was concerned as a player that we hope we never 478 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 3: see in twenty twenty five, and that is the backup 479 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 3: quarterback in Jacoby Brissett. You're laughing, Drew because we said 480 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 3: that about you once upon a time as well. No, 481 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 3: because as a backup, you don't want to be on 482 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 3: the football field, correct, Yeah. 483 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 5: But we can still be seen, like you can still 484 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 5: see us on the sideline, like you don't even want 485 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 5: to sell like it. 486 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 3: Not between the lines now, I don't when the game is. 487 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 5: Going on, well yeah, I mean, but you also have 488 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 5: to prepare if something does transpire. So again, backup quarterbacks 489 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 5: should be behind the scenes. And that's the goal in 490 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 5: all of it, right, is to be an asset. As 491 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 5: I talked about before when I was with you guys, 492 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 5: the backup quarterback plays such an instrumental role within the 493 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 5: entire franchise and at the facility of what they can 494 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 5: do on a daily basis to help prepare for everything. 495 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 5: And like Kyler just talked about, right, he's just scratching 496 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 5: the surface. So what do you need to do? You 497 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 5: need somebody that's been there, done that, that knows how 498 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 5: to continually answer any question that might come up. Right, Okay, 499 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 5: well why are you seeing this coverage? How did you 500 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 5: know it is going to be here? What did you 501 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 5: know this pressure was going to be or the fact 502 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 5: that he's even been in this system is another thing. Hey, 503 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 5: Like we used to use this check. We saw the 504 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 5: same exact defense here when we were in New England 505 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 5: and this is how we answered it. Right, So experience 506 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 5: is so vital. There is no replacement for experience. Yes, 507 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 5: Kyler's been in this league for seven years, He's been 508 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 5: in multiple systems. Now he is doing a great job 509 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 5: of operating this offense under cent and doing all these 510 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 5: things in a highly competitive setting. But an addition like 511 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,360 Speaker 5: this is only going to help him. And like I said, 512 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 5: it's also going to help Clayton tune because you've had 513 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:11,959 Speaker 5: a guy with so much experience and then it just 514 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 5: it continues to kind of have this ripple effect, not 515 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 5: only in the quarterback room, but the offensive line room, 516 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 5: the wide receiver room, all these things. Again, we're talking 517 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 5: about making these adjustments as a quarterback. Veteran quarterbacks know 518 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 5: what they need from a guy within a certain route. 519 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 5: I need you to be here at this specific time. 520 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 5: I need you to be able to do all of 521 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 5: these things. And he can go be a mouthpiece for Kyler. 522 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 5: And that's really where you see a guy like Marvin 523 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 5: Harrison Junior take off or even when he goes and 524 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 5: he talks to Drew Petsing saying, hey, like, what do 525 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 5: you think about trying to get the ball in his 526 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 5: hands early? Think about this, think about this player or 527 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 5: this play. Again, he's kind of an extension of the 528 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,880 Speaker 5: coaching staff or a guy like this, and that's why 529 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:49,959 Speaker 5: I think it's such a valuable piece of the puzzle. 530 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 4: I'm glad you said experience in this system, because we 531 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 4: talked about that last week. It's one thing Jacoby brissaid 532 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 4: going into year ten. I mean, that's obviously applause. He 533 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 4: started more than fifty games in this leg, but in 534 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two he started eleven games in the same 535 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 4: system that Drew Petsen is running. So for him to 536 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 4: show up and already have that knowledge to share the 537 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 4: anecdote that in week fifteen last year, New England at 538 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 4: Arizona and he's on the sidelines trying to predict the place, 539 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 4: trying to call the plays in his head what Drew 540 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 4: was going to dial up and you successful a handful 541 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 4: of times. How much does that help him? A just 542 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 4: have credibility in the room with Kyler, and then B 543 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 4: just to have the wherewithal and the knowledge to be 544 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 4: a true help with Kyler's understanding the system and where 545 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 4: to go with his reads, etc. 546 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 6: Yeah. 547 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 5: Well, again, he's heard it before, he's been there, he's done, 548 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 5: and he's operated that. Right, you can go back and 549 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 5: you can draw on these resources. I mean, we would 550 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 5: do the same thing. Here's when you've played in the 551 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 5: system and you've played a like opponent that's coming up 552 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 5: that week. You go back and you turn that film on. 553 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 5: You sit there and say, okay, this is our opening script. 554 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 5: You know, all of us quarterbacks or creatures have habit that, 555 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 5: we have notes, we have all of our game plans. 556 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 5: You see all these things and you go back and say, Okay, 557 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 5: this is what we did here, this is how we 558 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,400 Speaker 5: picked up this pressure, this is a good run check. 559 00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 5: These are the different things that we did throughout the 560 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 5: course of that week to prepare and he lived that. 561 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 5: You know, It's one thing to say, oh, I was 562 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 5: in the room when I was doing this, but he 563 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 5: was able to go out there and have success in 564 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 5: those eleven games. Like you talked about, He's played at 565 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,120 Speaker 5: a high level and accomplish a lot of great things. 566 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 5: And again just having that confidence of saying, I am 567 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 5: the backup and I am literally here to just help 568 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 5: Kyler Burt Murley be the best version of Kyler Murray 569 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 5: that he can be. That's really what you're looking for 570 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 5: in a backup, and everybody can you agree with Paul's 571 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,679 Speaker 5: with Craig's statement, you don't want to see the backup play, 572 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 5: So how do you do that? You help put the 573 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 5: starter in the best possible position. 574 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,919 Speaker 3: I did joke about it. Yet at the same time, 575 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 3: there was a comfort level when we did see you 576 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 3: on the football field, and there has to be because 577 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 3: if you have to use that number two quarterback for 578 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 3: a play a series, two or three games, you don't 579 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 3: want that to derail your entire season exactly right. 580 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 5: You've got to be able to weather any storm, and 581 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 5: you're trying to make a team as bulletproof as possible 582 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 5: going into that season, and this is a way to 583 00:25:58,560 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 5: do it. 584 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 4: Twenty years of the side reporter Craig, I think I 585 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 4: can say, I think I can assert that you know 586 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 4: what a team either believes in the backup or they don't, 587 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 4: and when the backup goes in, you can be done 588 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 4: before the first ball is even snapped if the whole 589 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 4: sideline doesn't believe in the guy who just checked into 590 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 4: the game. So that's critical as well. 591 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 3: Cardinals looking ahead to twenty twenty five, you want to 592 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 3: be a part of it.

This is the Arizona Cardinals 596 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 3: Radio Network. 597 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 8: First to ten up at the forty six Prescott under 598 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 8: center Boacherle's time play action and the passes intercepted, els intercepted. 599 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 3: It picks off by Jock's foot fifteen ten foot touchdown 600 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 3: Josh futt. 601 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 4: I want to play by Josh Witz. 602 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 3: Now the end tries to block him, he sheds the 603 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 3: end beach. 604 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 4: Preshcott wants to dropped the ball over his head too 605 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 4: a tight hand, and Sweat takes it away and takes 606 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 4: it in for a touchdowns up tick six by the 607 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 4: big man. 608 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 6: Coming off the edge. 609 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,120 Speaker 3: Now, I don't know how many times we'll actually see 610 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 3: that or here Dave Pash call at Josh Wett pick six, 611 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 3: hopefully several times. But I don't think Paul. That's the 612 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 3: reason the Cardinals went out and made Josh we a 613 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 3: priority at the beginning of free agency. They want someone 614 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 3: to go and effect the quarterback and if by chance 615 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 3: he shows his athleticism and jumps and gets the football, okay, great, 616 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 3: But how about you knock that quarterback down. 617 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 4: On the ground and you know what? Uh he Look, 618 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,880 Speaker 4: he's proven it. He's been to a Pro Bowl. He's 619 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 4: had a breakout year under Jonathan Gannon with eleven sacks. 620 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 4: And when we asked him the money question here on 621 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 4: the over on the Big Red Rage a couple of 622 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 4: weeks ago, we're like, wait a minute, what about the 623 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 4: whole narrative, the noise that the Eagles defense was so 624 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 4: loaded dot dot dot com that it was the rising 625 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 4: tide that lifted all boats and elevated everyone. And he 626 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 4: sort of stood up in his chair a little bit 627 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 4: and he said, you know what, we had the best 628 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 4: defense in the league, and I led that defense in sacks, 629 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 4: and we actually sacrificed for each other because it was 630 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 4: about winning. And so if I was chasing stats, it 631 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 4: could have looked a lot different, but I didn't, And 632 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 4: I thought that was a really just a really good 633 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 4: response and just how that Eagles defense did end up 634 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 4: being number one in the league, and they saw it 635 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 4: in the Super Bowl. They took down the great Patrick Mahomes. Yeah, Josh, 636 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 4: what two and a half sacks in the Super Bowl? 637 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 4: Eight sacks in the regular season. I do think Drew 638 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 4: it was the one big question, and maybe a couple 639 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 4: of big questions that the Cardinals had going into the offseason. 640 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 4: Who was going to be that guy defensively along that 641 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 4: front seven that was going to bring fear or at 642 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 4: least attract attention from opposing quarterbacks. You break the huddle, 643 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 4: you talk about all the time, Okay, where is fifty five? 644 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 4: That was Chandler Jones when he was Okay, Cardinals didn't 645 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 4: have that last season, and you hope that they have 646 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 4: it now with Josh what Well. 647 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 5: I would go even further back than saying when's the 648 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 5: last time they had when it probably was Chandler Jones 649 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 5: of somebody you're striking fear of and sliding protection towards. Right, 650 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 5: I mean to be honest with you, they've been searching 651 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 5: for that because those guys are very very hard to find, 652 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 5: and like I said, you usually don't let them out 653 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 5: of your building. And so a guy like that, not 654 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 5: only you take all of the athleticism and everything that 655 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 5: he has on paper. 656 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 6: Right. 657 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 5: The thing that I love to hear, right, is what 658 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 5: PAULI was alluding to, the veteran presence and confidence and 659 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 5: security that he can then bring to this team now 660 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 5: on his approach to the game. The selflessness. That's what 661 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 5: I love to hear, because again, defense, when you're only 662 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 5: rushing for it's about attitude, it's about effort, want to 663 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 5: and doing your job. And those are all things that 664 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 5: when you come in and you set the tempo on 665 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 5: how you work and it doesn't just happen on Sundays. 666 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 5: It's the off season program, it's how you study film, 667 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 5: it's all these things. When you can get a valuable 668 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 5: veteran that has bought into the system before and knows 669 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 5: what it looks like, and it is confident as approach 670 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 5: that can affect an entire an entire defense, not just 671 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 5: the defensive line, because all of a sudden it presents 672 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 5: more opportunities. You start doing line games, you start doing 673 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 5: all these different things of a guy that's put an 674 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 5: amazing resume together on tape is now bringing that entire 675 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 5: swagger to a defense that has so direly needed it. 676 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 4: How many times in the last two seasons has Nick 677 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 4: Rowl has truly been able to rush for and affect 678 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 4: the quarterback as it happened a whole lot. That's why 679 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 4: we coin the whole eleven card pickup, Like eleven dudes, 680 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 4: where are they going to be? He's had to dial 681 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 4: up to who the when? You know the where? Okay, 682 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 4: but now it's just what what happens when you can 683 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 4: get home with four guys? I think that's where this 684 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 4: defense elevates. 685 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, and you just start bringing more guys until 686 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 5: they do get home. Right, So when you only have 687 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 5: to bring four and you feel good about it, much 688 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 5: like we saw in the super Bowl, that's where you 689 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 5: can gain a huge advantage because then you are messing 690 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 5: with guys and you can start fake hug, rushing and 691 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 5: doing different things. When you can get home with FOURD, 692 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 5: you don't have to continually bring guys to the party 693 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 5: or manufacture a rush that doesn't exist. And that's again 694 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 5: from a quarterback standpoint, that's your worst nightmare. When you 695 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 5: know pressure's coming and you line up, for instance, right 696 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 5: when you line up and empty, that's going to show 697 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 5: a defense's hand. They have to be able to cover down. 698 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 5: You have to know, okay, is this a zone pressure, 699 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 5: is this a man pressure? Is this an all out 700 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 5: blitz that's going to show you the spacing you need. 701 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 5: When you have the ability to disguise things and only 702 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 5: bring for and create pressure in there, it makes a 703 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 5: quarterback have to sit there and really account for all 704 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 5: portions of the field. And from a quarterbacks perspective, again, 705 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 5: we try to break the field into half when we're 706 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 5: sliding protection or doing different things. We're not chameleons. We 707 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 5: can't see out of both sides of our eyes. So 708 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 5: we tried to lock down one side and say I 709 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 5: feel really good about this side. When you have two 710 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,959 Speaker 5: elite pass rushers, when you have the ability to get 711 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 5: up the middle pressure or on the edge. That creates 712 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 5: problems because you can't account for that. That's just pure 713 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 5: effort and really presents so many more problems than saying, Okay, 714 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 5: we're gonna bring five, we're gonna bring six, we're gonna 715 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 5: bring seven. Right you start doing that, it's like we 716 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 5: get the ball out there, you're exposing yourself on the 717 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 5: back end. 718 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 3: Jonathan Gannon Nick Rulis both know what Josh Wet is 719 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 3: capable of doing. Last week, Paul on the Big Red Rage, 720 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 3: you had a chance to speak with Eagles insider Daves 721 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 3: Bodero talking about Josh Wett. Yeah, he can rush the quarterback, 722 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 3: but you have to be able to get to those 723 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 3: positions or those situations where you rush the quarterback. So 724 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 3: the question was asked, is Josh what a three down player? 725 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 6: Yeah? 726 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 5: He is. 727 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 6: He was here, and you know Eagles have some depths, 728 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 6: so they rotate. I mean, like ideally you would like 729 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 6: to rotate your defensive lineman. But he can play three downs. 730 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 6: He has shown that in the past. He plays the 731 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 6: run well, sets the edge nicely, and is very technically sound. 732 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 6: So you would like to have some depth there. You 733 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 6: want to throw as many fastballs at the offensive line 734 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 6: as you can. But josh is very capable of doing 735 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 6: that if need be. 736 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 3: Joshuaed was on the field for nearly sixty percent of 737 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 3: the defensive snaps last season. But you what you don't want, Drew, 738 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 3: is you don't want a certain player on the field 739 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 3: and all of a sudden that quarterback knows exactly what's coming. Well, 740 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 3: because it's third down, here comes josh What, Well, he's 741 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 3: gonna rush. You want to be able to not give 742 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 3: the offense a tell, and that can mean all right, 743 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 3: we're not switching up personal. Yeah, you want to rotate 744 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 3: a little bit, but maybe you don't rotate on a 745 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 3: particular series. 746 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, and you got to keep guys fresh. You've got 747 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 5: to be able to do that. Again, sixties probably lower 748 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 5: than what we're going to see from him now. I 749 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 5: would imagine that he'll be out there far more than that. 750 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 5: But you also don't want to get him out there 751 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 5: too much. I remember being in Cleveland with Miles Garrett. 752 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 5: You're like, I want this guy out here every single snap, 753 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 5: And I remember talking to a personnel guy, actually, Elliot Wolf, 754 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 5: who's the GM now for the new England Patriots, and 755 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 5: I was like, he was like, he's playing too much. 756 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 5: And I was like, what do you mean, He's getting 757 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 5: paid so much money he needs to be playing and said, no, 758 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 5: at the end of the game, we need him to 759 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 5: be able to rush the passer and be able to 760 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 5: get after the quarterback. Yes, he's great at stopping the run, 761 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 5: but he's eating double teams the entire game. That's going 762 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 5: to take a toll on you. And you are the 763 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 5: perennial pass rusher on that team. We are going to 764 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 5: try to stop you. As I talked about earlier in 765 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 5: the show, right, that is what everybody's looking to do. 766 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 5: How do I negate this game record? Right here? That's 767 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 5: going to be Josh sweat for. 768 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 7: Us this year? 769 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 4: He easily could have been the Super Bowl MVP. Two 770 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 4: and a half sacks, you know, three quarterback hits. And 771 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 4: he was asked during his press conference, you know, the 772 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 4: welcome intro to the Arizona media, Okay, how why you 773 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 4: know what do you attribute your big game to? And 774 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 4: he just said Vic Fangio said, go just go unleash, 775 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 4: just go after him. We're going to attack Patrick Mahomes 776 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 4: and then later revealed that's exactly how Jonathan Gannon and 777 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 4: Nick Rowlis used him in Philadelphia. So I am very 778 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 4: curious when he's out on the field, is he just 779 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 4: going to be unleashed and allowed to fly around with 780 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 4: abandon because to hear Josh Sweat taught, that's when he's 781 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 4: at his best. 782 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,320 Speaker 3: Those two seasons that JG and Nick Rulis were in 783 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 3: Philly with Josh Wet twenty twenty one, Pro Bowl year 784 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two a career high eleven sacks. So maybe 785 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 3: it is a little bit more of that. Okay, your job, 786 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 3: go get the quarterback and we focus on the sacks. 787 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 3: We taught focus on the quarterback hits. But according to 788 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 3: Daves Banero, again, it's more than just the sacks and 789 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 3: getting to the quarterback for Josh Wet. 790 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 6: If you are judging Josh Sweat on the number of 791 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 6: quarterback sacks that he brings to the table, you're missing 792 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 6: out on the other parts of his game that he 793 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 6: does well. The consistency. You know, the clip that you 794 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 6: played the interception of Dak Prescott in the return was 795 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 6: a play where Josh reddit Josh read what Dak was 796 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 6: going to do, started his pass rush, dropped into coverage, 797 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 6: made the interception, and then showed his athletic ability to 798 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 6: get to the end zone. That's the kind of player 799 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 6: he is. He's not going in there just to rack 800 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 6: up the sack numbers. He's going in there to win 801 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:47,479 Speaker 6: football games. 802 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 3: The other aspects of this, Drew is what does s 803 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,399 Speaker 3: what's presence mean for the guy on the other side, 804 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 3: whether that's Baron Browning or b jo Jo Lauri or 805 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 3: Zavon Collins or the secondary, because now all of a sudden, 806 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,479 Speaker 3: that quarterback does have nearly as much time to throw, 807 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 3: and now everyone else's games maybe gets elevated a little. 808 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 5: Bit better, There's no doubt. And that's what I alluded 809 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 5: to earlier. He just elevates everybody else around him. And 810 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 5: you talk about that, and I also said this, you 811 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 5: start sliding protection to him, who's got the one on 812 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 5: one when you're one on one, And that was what 813 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 5: comes to mind with Chandler Jones is he had his 814 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 5: Marcus Golden Right. That's where we're relying on guys like that, 815 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 5: not only on the outside but also interior. When you 816 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 5: make a concerted effort to stop one guy, it frees 817 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 5: everybody else up to go out there and play a 818 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 5: higher level and to start accumulate stats. Yes, stats are 819 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 5: one thing, but being able to situationally understand how am 820 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 5: I going to be used on this pivotal third down? 821 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 5: How is my responsibility going to differ on first down 822 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 5: or second down or in a two minute when we 823 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 5: need to get a sack. All of those things play 824 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 5: into what he can bring to the table. 825 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 4: I mean, think about the possibility of T and E games, right, 826 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 4: whether it Arrius Robinson and Josh Sweat, just all the 827 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 4: athleticism and the explosion and what sort of combo those 828 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:10,240 Speaker 4: two could become. But to dial it back to Drew's 829 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 4: original point, how do you get that guy now? The 830 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 4: stinking Rams last year got Jared versus nineteen. So maybe 831 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:18,840 Speaker 4: there is a guy at sixteen, and maybe there is 832 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 4: an edge guy still coming. We don't know that, but 833 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 4: I do think the Cardinals and Cardinals fans and those 834 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 4: of us here we need to be thankful Cardinals had 835 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 4: a competitive advantage in signing Josh Sweat because of Jonathan 836 00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 4: Gann and Nick rolis right, and the way they're going 837 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 4: to use him, and the Cardinals are willing obviously to 838 00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 4: pay top dollar. I mean they filled their biggest need 839 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 4: with the biggest name and free agency. 840 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 3: Does GM Monti Austin for it though, now double down 841 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 3: when it comes to the draft along that defensive front 842 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:45,839 Speaker 3: or there are other needs we would like to see 843 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,879 Speaker 3: the GM search for as far as positions with those 844 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,360 Speaker 3: six draft picks. We'll talk about that next here on 845 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 3: the Cardinals Radio Network. 846 00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 2: Starting to six, Les Jackson always pass it get inflicted is. 847 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 3: Deck at the fully seven yard line. 848 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 1: Team Davis Gaither Plesscott to throw Flesher Hey is deckedun 849 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 1: Dalvin Tomlinson flying through the middle of a sack to 850 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: start for Cleveland. 851 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:16,360 Speaker 6: His sack. 852 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 4: Tomlinson in trouble down. 853 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 2: He comes Dalvin Tomlinson there and the ball came out 854 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 2: parts a trouble. 855 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 7: He is shot. 856 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 2: Josh Sweat with a sat he was under pressure again, 857 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 2: swung down the twenty nine yard line. Josh Sweat. Here 858 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,800 Speaker 2: is Harris again and he gets Watt just nowhere to 859 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 2: go and Josh Sweat was there. 860 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 4: Here's Maholmes pressure right away in the hole is shut. 861 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,359 Speaker 2: Josh Sweat gets home. 862 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 3: I had a free agency and this was at the 863 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 3: Scott and Combine Gia Monti Austin Ford mentioned that he 864 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 3: prefers to go into the draft knowing that all your 865 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 3: needs have been met. Can you answer this question, can 866 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 3: you go play a game right now? That question was 867 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 3: posed to him again earlier this week at the annual 868 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 3: League Meeting by our own Darren Urban, and Moni believes that, yes, 869 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 3: the Cardinals can go out and play a game right now. 870 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 3: With that said, however, drew the next availability to acquire 871 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 3: players with free agency kind of slowing down. Is the 872 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 3: draft coming up at the end of April. You've got 873 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 3: six picks. Is there a position where maybe you don't 874 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 3: quite feel as comfortable right now week one or is 875 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 3: it more all right? We need to build around the 876 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 3: line of scrimmage and look not just at twenty twenty five, 877 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,479 Speaker 3: but twenty twenty six and twenty twenty seven. 878 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:36,879 Speaker 4: Yeah. 879 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 5: Well, I think everybody's looking at this draft and just 880 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:40,800 Speaker 5: talking about the depth of it. It might not be 881 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 5: these perennial Pro bowlers that you're looking at it, especially 882 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,839 Speaker 5: with where the Cardinals are drafting, right, can you find 883 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 5: the diamond in the rough? Can you find these guys? 884 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 5: But really, when you assess how you approach the draft, 885 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,040 Speaker 5: right you want your top four round draft picks being 886 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 5: able to without a doubt make the team and hopefully 887 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 5: have some kind of an impat and then you roll 888 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 5: the dice on those later picks, whether it's character, whether 889 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 5: it's injury, whether it's something they're filling a knee type 890 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 5: of thing to add depth. Right, again, the offensive philosophy, 891 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,879 Speaker 5: the defensive philosophy. Do you have to add a kicker? 892 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 5: Do you have to add a punter? I mean, even 893 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 5: to Paully's point, right, do you add a long snapper 894 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 5: that can now play on special teams? 895 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 8: Right? 896 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 5: Because that's becoming a real thing or an added bonus 897 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,839 Speaker 5: of carrying the number that you do on your roster. 898 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 5: For me, I would always be adding a running back 899 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 5: and I always be adding a wide receiver. 900 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 7: Right. 901 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 5: But if I'm going to make a difference making type 902 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,839 Speaker 5: of a draft pick, I'm always looking can I get 903 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,279 Speaker 5: better upfront? Because that's where you win football games on 904 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,239 Speaker 5: the offense and defensive line every single time, and just 905 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:44,280 Speaker 5: by purely drafting and putting your eggs in that basket. 906 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 5: You look at a franchise like the Detroit Lions, You 907 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:48,880 Speaker 5: look at what the Chicago Bears did in the offseason, 908 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,719 Speaker 5: obviously with their transition of what they're trying to do. 909 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 5: There's just not enough guys in this league to go 910 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:58,760 Speaker 5: around to ever make you feel comfortable for the offense 911 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 5: and defensive line. So if you have somebody that you 912 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 5: feel like fits your system on either side of the 913 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 5: ball that can make a difference, you go out and 914 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 5: get him. 915 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 4: I mean, could I see the Cardinals going corner at 916 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,760 Speaker 4: sixteen overall? Craig, Yeah, I could see that. Will Johnson, 917 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 4: there's the latest NFL dot Com today, barn Right, the 918 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 4: Jim Thorpe Award winner from Texas. Okay, although he's more 919 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 4: of a nickel and I don't necessarily see that. You 920 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 4: better be a pure cover outside corner to go sixteen overall. 921 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 4: I would think, at least for Jonathan Gannon. However, I 922 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 4: do look at offensive guard now Evan Brown, and maybe 923 00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 4: I call him the sleeper. Isaiah Adams, last year's Round 924 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 4: three pick who finished pretty dang well. Put some good 925 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 4: film out there. He gets stronger as that Zach Allen. Offseason, 926 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,839 Speaker 4: he puts on fifteen good pounds of muscle, and boom, 927 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 4: he comes back a different player in near two. I 928 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:46,479 Speaker 4: could see that, bod. If this draft is historically deep 929 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 4: and defensive lineman and even edge guys. I mean, do 930 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,760 Speaker 4: you walk into a barbecue joint in order avocado toast? 931 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 8: No? 932 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 6: So you could do. 933 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,760 Speaker 4: This is what this year is specializing in D line 934 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 4: edge players. So I think this is where my grabs 935 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 4: his plate and he loads up at sixteen and maybe 936 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 4: even forty seven because that's where they're getting. Is good? 937 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 6: All right? 938 00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,160 Speaker 3: Be honest with us, Paul, when was the last time, 939 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 3: remembe the first time you ever ordered the avocado toast? 940 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 4: I never have, but I was not too long ago. 941 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:17,319 Speaker 4: Was at a lunch with mister Ron Wolfley and Kevin 942 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,720 Speaker 4: Ray and one of those two ordered avocado toast. 943 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 3: I know which one was, Yes, you did know who wasn't? 944 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,920 Speaker 4: It wasn't ordering that the guy who has very Natalie 945 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:29,440 Speaker 4: attired on TV for Suns games. So I'm just saying, Drew, you. 946 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 3: Mentioned the first four picks as far as the first 947 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,919 Speaker 3: four rounds well for the Cardinals at sixteen, forty seven, 948 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 3: seventy eight, and one fifteen, and then you've got a 949 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,399 Speaker 3: fifth round pick and in the seventh round selection. So again, 950 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:43,360 Speaker 3: the closer I get to the draft, the more and 951 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 3: more I'm like, Okay, it's got to be the line 952 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 3: of scrimmage and whether you're doubling up on what you 953 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 3: already have, those are the players that are going to 954 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 3: be here, knock on wood long term, and maybe you 955 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 3: kind of roll the dice on another position later on, 956 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 3: maybe on day. 957 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,880 Speaker 5: Three, Yeah, exactly. And then also, like you also need 958 00:42:59,920 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 5: to understand that there's the guys that are going to 959 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 5: be undrafted free agents, right that you have to go 960 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 5: out and get in. Is it sometimes better to be 961 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 5: able to say, Okay, well we're going to spend that 962 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 5: seventh round picking a guy that we know that we like, 963 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 5: we've only got one. How do you get on the 964 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 5: phone and you start making those photo calls of saying, hey, 965 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 5: if you go undrafted, here's a great opportunity for you. 966 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 4: Right, we have what we have on paper. 967 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 5: There is not a lot of turnover on offenses we've seen, 968 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 5: and there's a lot of opportunity here for you that 969 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:27,800 Speaker 5: is intriguing to you guys, right, And so again, you 970 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 5: can go about it a lot of different ways, but 971 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:32,959 Speaker 5: those first four rounds you need to make sure you nail. 972 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:36,239 Speaker 5: And again, with the depth of this draft that we 973 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 5: have and what we're seeing, There's plenty of things that 974 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 5: are right for the picking. 975 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 4: And if the Cardinals go interior line at sixteen, I 976 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:44,960 Speaker 4: would not be shocked at all at Tyler Booker out 977 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 4: of Alabama, Gray Zabel out of North Dakota State, Calvin 978 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 4: Banks junior out of Texas, a first team All American 979 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 4: who could then play right tackle. I could see that 980 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 4: in year number two. Think about the division last year, 981 00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 4: think about Big Cat Williams, Leonard Williams and what he 982 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,440 Speaker 4: did in those two games. He was a problem. He 983 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:04,719 Speaker 4: was a headache. You have that Rams defensive front now 984 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,720 Speaker 4: that is young and really talented. We know the Niners 985 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 4: what they believe John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan in building 986 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 4: that defensive front. So if you went on line at 987 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,479 Speaker 4: number sixteen overall, I think that would be a great 988 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 4: direction to hit. 989 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 5: And I think that's a great spot to go guard 990 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 5: right because you can plug and play guards. Guards have 991 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 5: the ability to lean on their center for their calls 992 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:24,800 Speaker 5: on the inside and they have the ability to just 993 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 5: then relay that call to the tackle and they're kind 994 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 5: of in between there right. It allows you to solidify 995 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,399 Speaker 5: something very very quickly and play at a high level 996 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,880 Speaker 5: and with the sixteenth overall pick. You're feeling good about it. 997 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:37,359 Speaker 3: And you've got a veteran at center, a veteran at 998 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,520 Speaker 3: right tackle, whether that's Jonah Williams or Kelvin Beacham to 999 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:42,240 Speaker 3: where now you're coming in as a rookie. 1000 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 4: Maybe that pressure isn't all the way there. And that's 1001 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,880 Speaker 4: where Drew doesn't have to explain to us.
