Speaker 1: NFL veteran Drew Stanton. While the numbers are in, gentlemen,

13
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifty six the most watch show in five years,

14
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: over one hundred and twenty million people and like me,

15
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: all disappointed in the outcome. Drew, Probably not you though, No,

16
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: I mean I was trying. I was trying to figure

17
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 1: out a way because everybody asked me who I was

18
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 1: cheering for, and I was like, well I want to.

19
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 1: I believe two weeks ago when we got your thoughts.

20
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: You mentioned the Cincinnati Bengals. Yeah, no, and then Joe

21
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: Barrow kept talking, So that was where it fell apart

22
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: from me unfortunately about you know, his diamonds and how

23
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: much money he makes and the suits that he wears.

24
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 1: But no, he he had a tremendous year, right you

25
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: look at what he was able to accomplish. But yes,

26
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,320
Speaker 1: I was biased because of Matthew Stafford. And I'm so

27
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 1: proud to see him be able to hoist that trophy up,

28
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: knowing the humble beginnings that he had and the work

29
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: behind the scenes and the progress that he had throughout

30
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 1: the entire course of his career to have it culminate

31
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: in the highest on that you can achieve, right like,

32
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: he is a super Bowl champion forever, and it could

33
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: not happen to a better human being and a better

34
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: person because he was in Detroit for a decade and

35
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: not many people knew who he was. And now people

36
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,279
Speaker 1: are talking about Hall of Fame and all this other stuff,

37
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: and you know, numbers are what they are, but as

38
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,119
Speaker 1: far as the person, there is not anybody more deserving

39
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: than him to be able to be a part of

40
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: that magical type of a run. We tip our cap

41
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: to the Los Angeles Rams. MJ not happy about that.

42
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: But Drew brings up stories and players that you're happy for.

43
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford and Aaron Donald and Andrew Whitworth, guys that

44
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: had put in the work and now their careers had

45
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 1: that proverbial cherry on top. It doesn't make him any better,

46
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: But in the case of Stafford, he's viewed differently. I

47
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: don't know if Aaron Donald is viewed any differently. But

48
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: now that Lombardi Trophy is within the NFC West, well,

49
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: the fact is he win thirteen years without winning a

50
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 1: playoff game, and obviously you know some of those games

51
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 1: came down little wire. At the same time, though, I mean,

52
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: if you look at the guys that made the plays

53
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: in that game, Aaron Donald and Cooper Cup and we

54
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 1: always talk about, well they don't value draft picks, Well

55
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: they got it right. And then going out and giving

56
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: out draft picks for Matthew Stafford, couldn't be happy for

57
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: him because nobody had more pressure on him and he

58
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: was he was. I mean, besides thrown a couple of

59
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: picks his fourth quarter of game. In the fourth quarter,

60
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 1: he was dynamic like and you know, they lose Odell

61
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, you know, he got

62
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup. And you know, we can debate who should

63
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: have won the MVP. Usually they start to add about

64
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: five or six left in the game, and obviously the

65
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: game ended on Aaron Donald, so either or. But yeah,

66
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: they went all in and they backed it up. By

67
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: the way, Drew, you had a hand and this win,

68
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: a subtle hand and this win because again I go

69
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: back to our conversation two weeks ago, you know, on

70
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: the Cardinals Red Sea Report presented by seat Geek get

71
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: your Seats and a Seats, you kind of off handed

72
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: comments about delivering something to Matthew Stafford about the super

73
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: Bowl schedule and leading into the super Bowl and had

74
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: to best handle that a couple of pieces of paper

75
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: that you kept from your Super Bowl run last year

76
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So I believe some credits

77
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: Stafford accepts that trophy and all the accolades he should thank.

78
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: Drew stant Yeah, I'm way way down the list if

79
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: I'm on there, but I figured, hey, if it was

80
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: good enough for Tom Brady to do it for a

81
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,720
Speaker 1: two week timespan, you know, so much of its time

82
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 1: management and that those two weeks and texting with Matthew

83
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: Saturday before the game, of like, those are the two

84
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: longest weeks he could probably go through because all you

85
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: want to do is play football. But that first week

86
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,119
Speaker 1: is all work and that second week is all media stuff.

87
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:37,679
Speaker 1: And he's like, I'm so glad to be done with media.

88
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 1: You know, there's so much hoopla and everything that's involved

89
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: with it, and the people that can handle those two

90
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: weeks are the team that go in and has success.

91
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: And you know, to MJ's point, Matthew looked like he

92
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: was completely in control the whole game. He looked comfortable,

93
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: and he did have a bulls eye on his back

94
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: the entire year. But he's the type of person that

95
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: can handle that. He can just continue to stare adversity

96
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: in the face and persevere through it. And I'm so

97
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 1: thrilled for him. I mean, the first interception, he throws

98
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 1: up the ball to Van Jefferson think he's on the

99
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: safety and you know, Jesse Bas just makes a great play.

100
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: The other interception gets tipped, and but you just keep

101
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: playing and you keep you have amnesia as a quarterback

102
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: of just okay, let's just keep going and that's who

103
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: he is. That doesn't change whether it's the Super Bowl

104
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: or it's a preseason game. And that's what you are

105
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 1: really looking for, to be a franchise quarterback, that difference maker,

106
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: because they went all in with him, and so again,

107
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: I'm just so happy that he got that fairy tale ending.

108
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: We'll dive into the particulars a little bit later on

109
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: as far as what happened during that twenty three twenty

110
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: win Rams over the Bengals. But for you, Drew, how

111
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 1: do you watch the Super Bowl when you know you're

112
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: a fan of the sport you played it, Yet on

113
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 1: the one hand, a very good friend of yours is

114
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: in the game. Are you watching from a fan standpoint

115
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: and analytical standpoints? Nervous or no nerves? No nerve, No

116
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 1: nerves For me, I just like watching the guys that

117
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: I know. I want to see them do well. And

118
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 1: Matthew obviously having a personal relationship at Cooper Cup, the

119
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: way he handles himself, everything he does, I think is

120
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: just remarkable even afterwards. So just the humility he has,

121
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 1: having children, having you know, other people that are watching

122
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: all of these sports. To have an iconic player like that,

123
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: that's that achieved everything the Triple crown this year, to

124
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: sit up there and say, I'm so undeserving of this.

125
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: The humility, and that's what I look for as opposed

126
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 1: to you know, as I said earlier Joe Burrow, sometimes

127
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: you know, pride comes before the fall. And I was

128
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: joking with Matthews, like you should get a box of

129
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: cigars and send him to Joe Burrow and say better

130
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 1: luck next year. So that's how my brain thinks. But

131
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: you know, I always root for guys, not teams, and

132
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 1: so that's why whoever was going to win the Super Bowl,

133
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: I would have been okay with it because Cincinnati they've

134
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 1: had a magical run and they've been able to do

135
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 1: stuff with a lot of guys on that defense that

136
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: have gotten second chances and second opportunities, and you know,

137
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: it was like whatever they could second chance to you

138
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: or whatever whatever was. I think that it's great because

139
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: you see this perseverance and so much in society today

140
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 1: you see kids that will tap out or they are

141
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: worried about the wrong things, where both of these teams

142
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: they've stayed the course, they believed in what they believed in.

143
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: Because part way through the year the Rams didn't have

144
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: a chance, and then they just kept plugging away, adding

145
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 1: these pieces. But the core was intact, and that core

146
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: was so strong that it carried him through. Yeah. You know,

147
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: one of the keys we talked about going in the

148
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: game is you know, he hears so much about you know,

149
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: when he was sacked with nineteen times Chill Burrow in

150
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: the postseason a postseason seven. In that game, the Rams

151
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: sacked Burrow seven times, brought twenty six pressure, sixteen hurries

152
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 1: and three hits on forty three dropbacks, and he was

153
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: getting rid of the ball up two point four three.

154
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: It wasn't quick enough though against that Rams front seven. Well, yeah,

155
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: and that's the thing that you look at, right, because

156
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 1: it's what side of the fence do you want to

157
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: go on? Do you want to get it? Jamarches? Where

158
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: if I'm a quarterback, and we talked about on the

159
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: show leading into it, Yeah, because you could put the

160
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: ball in his hands like he did even against Jalen Ramsey.

161
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: He can make plays, he can do all these things.

162
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: He's a difference maker. But then you go, well, it

163
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: really be nice to have Peney Sool they're blocking for me.

164
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: So it's how do you want to do that, because

165
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,679
Speaker 1: it's so hard at either position. As we'll talk about

166
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: in free agency of what the Cards are looking for.

167
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: These positions of need that everybody wants, whether it's offensive

168
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: lineman or dynamic playmakers as wide receiver, they don't come

169
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: along very often. So you just gotta, you know, stick

170
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: to the course that you were going on. And Jamar

171
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: Chase is a pretty one to continue on with. Joe

172
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: Burrow between the regular season and postseason, sacked seventy times.

173
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: I went back Drew and looked at your career thirty

174
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: eight times. You were sacked in your career thirty eight

175
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 1: over the course of your career. I think the single

176
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 1: season high was eleven times, but seventy times in one season.

177
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: You talk about sustainability, Oh yeah, no, those zows that up.

178
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,559
Speaker 1: I mean, he's gonna look at the career course map

179
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: of the Carson Wentz that can't stay healthy now because

180
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 1: he's so beat up and he's taking these extra hits

181
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: or doing all these other things. Versus guys like they

182
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: make fun of the Mannings and we talked about it

183
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: here before, but they're avoiding hits. Tom Brady, same thing.

184
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers doesn't take these hits. He knows when he

185
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: has to stand in there and make these plays, but

186
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: the you know, you can only take so much. He's

187
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: coming off of injury. Even Patrick Mahomes like it was

188
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: great to see him finish the year healthy because in

189
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: the previous years he's been doing that. So you really

190
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,719
Speaker 1: want to try and limit those number of hits for

191
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: the sustainability of your franchise quarterback. And the best way

192
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: to do that, you know, is obviously get the protection

193
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: that you need. But it's hard. Brought up the ratings

194
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: at the beginning here on the Cardinals Red Seat Report

195
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: presented by Your Seats Any Seat, they have the top

196
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: metered markets for Super Bowl fifty six, and no surprise,

197
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati market number one, but the LA market didn't

198
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 1: even finish in the top ten. As far as what

199
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 1: people were doing on Sunday, it's in your own backyard,

200
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: m J, and you're not paying attention to the game.

201
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: Next year it's at State Farm Stadium, I would think,

202
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: and hopefully the Cardinals are playing in that game. But

203
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: the state of Arizona is watching that game in your

204
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: own backyard, not the case in Los Angeles. Well, I

205
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: mean the tickets, aren't. You know, they're not cheap. Even

206
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: the players got to pay for him. And you know,

207
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: obviously at a certain point you can't take care of everyone.

208
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: But I'm sure there are a lot of people watching.

209
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: You know, you may have a sports bar and I

210
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: don't know if they calculate that. And you know, plus

211
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: you got seventy thousand fans there. Maybe they're swept forty

212
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: thousand Rams or forty thousand Cincinnati fans. It's interesting. Columbus

213
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 1: was in there, Detroit was number two. There's the Matthew Stafford. Ye,

214
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: Boston obviously, you know, just hoping there Patriots can get

215
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: there sometimes. Jacksonville was tenth, which surprised me. Boston came

216
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: in at number eight, Philadelphia number nine. So it's just

217
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 1: a little interesting thing. And everyone makes fun of the

218
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: LA market because it's you know, you arrive late, leave early,

219
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 1: and but and then how many shots we saw during

220
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 1: the course of the game, celebrity rows like it was

221
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: watching a Los Angeles Lakers game. It's like, where have

222
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: all these people been all season long or all you know,

223
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 1: the last couple of seasons. All of a sudden, everyone

224
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: shows up when there's a winner in town. Yeah. Well,

225
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: I mean and they won. They put on a show,

226
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: and there's so much going on in LA that sometimes

227
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: even the Super Bowl can't draw the crowds in. But

228
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: you know, I thought it was a great football game.

229
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: It was as advertised with both teams, and we got

230
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: pretty much what we thought we were going to get.

231
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: I mean, everything went according to plan. They didn't call

232
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: a single penalty until that last drive. And I even

233
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: thought the one, you know, the obviously the Cooper Cup

234
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 1: holding that one was a little tiki tacky, but the

235
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: second down past where Matthew tried to check it down.

236
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 1: I was like, that was much more of a penalty.

237
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: But I guess Cooper cups more likely to get that call.

238
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 1: But you know, all in all, it was a phenomenal

239
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I mean, everybody's got their opinion on the

240
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: halftime show, of course, but you know, it was a

241
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 1: great way to end the football season for this year.

242
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: And now everybody gets a clean slate and we can

243
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: start talking about offseason. We can talk about everybody else.

244
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 1: And that's the beauty of this sport is that it

245
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 1: has become a year round talking point. Yeah, I'm glad

246
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 1: you brought up the officiating because you know, normally when

247
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: you get to this stage, you want to let those

248
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: guys play, and you know, whether it was a false

249
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,959
Speaker 1: start or a past interference call, you're not going to

250
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 1: get everything, and some of that's not reviewable. But I

251
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: like the fact that they swallowed the whistle and didn't

252
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: throw the flags. Let these guys play, and if you know,

253
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 1: they say, well, if it's a holding penalty in the

254
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: first quarter, he got a call in the fourth. But

255
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,960
Speaker 1: going back to the even conference championship games, the penalties

256
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: were down and again, yeah, sometimes it's going to be reviewed,

257
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: whether it's a turnover or touchdown, and it's a booth review,

258
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: it slows the game down a little bit. But here,

259
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 1: I thought they kept it going and you really didn't

260
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,319
Speaker 1: have to say, well, it's rigged or some team benefited

261
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: from a call. I think it was pretty even across

262
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: the board. Peter King had an interesting notes in his

263
00:12:56,120 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: Football Football Morning An America column on Monday. Four penalties

264
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: in the first fifty eight minutes, four in the last

265
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: two minutes, and everyone's focusing on those last couple against

266
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals. There was one that was offsetting, and

267
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 1: then there was the Logan Wilson penalty that seemed to

268
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: be tickie tack. But you go back to earlier in

269
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: the ballgame, MJ and maybe the Bengals benefited from a

270
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 1: face mask penalty that wasn't called and Jalen Ramsey gets

271
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: his head turned and all of a sudden, you got

272
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,319
Speaker 1: a big play. So maybe it evens out. But I

273
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 1: do to your point as far as how the officials

274
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 1: handled the postseason, Let the players dictate how this game

275
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 1: is played and performed. Yeah, I'll come and now. Still

276
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 1: photos are misleading sometimes, but it looked like Aaron Donald

277
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 1: could have been off sides a little bit before when

278
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 1: he was able to get to Burrow obviously to end

279
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: the game. But again, usually he lines up and he's

280
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 1: kind of he's kind of like trying to split a

281
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 1: double team. But still photos showed that he's his helmet

282
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: and shoulder pads are over the line. Well, I can't

283
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: go back and replay. Oh he needs to play. They

284
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: could have blocked him, right, It's just parts of the

285
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: human elements of the game that we like to call football,

286
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 1: and how the Rams were able to do it and

287
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 1: how close the Bengals were able to pull off the upsets.

288
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: We'll get to that next here on the Cardinals Red

Speaker 1: carbon the league go high far side of the end zone.

302

Speaker 1: He tucks out of the ram the tick of the league,

303
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: the Rams, a tick of the league. One twenty five

Speaker 1: to go. Kevily covered cup, flip and trimped the ball

305

00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,400

309
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: robbing the trunk with throwing away. The Rams celebrating on

310
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: the near side. I'm down to goes to La and

311
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: the defense stands to Cooper Cup with the game winning touchdown.

312
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: Catch Aaron Donald with the game deciding play back to

313
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: back play, stopping Somoji p Ryan on third and one,

314
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: then get into the backfield and forcing Joe Burrow to

315
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: throw away a fourth and one. Kevin Harland on Westwood One,

316
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: as we talked Super Bowl fifty six, the Rams beat

317
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: the Bengals twenty three to twenty Craig Rayelu, Drew Stanton,

318
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: and Mike Dreki here on the Cardinals Red Seat Report

319
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 1: presented by seat Geek. Get your seats in a seats

320
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 1: all right, Drew. I think I know where Ye'll go

321
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: with this, but I'll ask anyway more Impressed with that

322
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: final drive fifteen play, seventy nine yards or what Aaron

323
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: Donald accomplished, not just those final two plays, but the

324
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: entire game. Seven quarterback pressures, three quarterback kits, two sacks,

325
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: two tackles for loss, four tackles overall. I mean, yeah,

326
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, I think that if you look at that

327
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: and what was most surprising to me or I guess disappointed.

328
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 1: And again I'm a fan. At this point, the third

329
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: and one call and the shotgun a trial with Ryan

330
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: instead of two, and I'm shaking my head. I was like,

331
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 1: why are in the gun right now? And then all

332
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 1: of a sudden like it's like the other thing that

333
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: just is maddening to me, and it happens throughout the

334
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: course of the game, is like it's third and two

335
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: and they're an empty there's zero element of a run,

336
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: there's any like, and both teams are doing this and

337
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 1: I'm like, you guys have really good running backs and

338
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 1: like getting Underson it it's they lost art to be

339
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 1: able to be all these things. So of course Aaron

340
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,119
Speaker 1: Donald's stance is completely different on third and one. He

341
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: can shoot a gap, he can do all of these things.

342
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,639
Speaker 1: So it wasn't necessarily the fourth and one call that

343
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: was like, oh man, that wasn't a great call because

344
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: it was long at that point when they lost the arts.

345
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 1: It might have even been fourth and two. But I mean,

346
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: I don't want to give Aaron Donald a chance to

347
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 1: do anything and all of that. So that third and

348
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 1: one call was the one that I was like, man,

349
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 1: they are not in a good position to do this

350
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,120
Speaker 1: right here, because they put themselves behind the eight ball,

351
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 1: knowing that they had to try to go down there

352
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: at least get a field goal. So Aaron Donald's performance

353
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: from start to finish, as we all predicted, a new

354
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 1: and you know, as we've all seen in this division,

355
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: he has that kind of capability. He's a defensive Lineman's

356
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: one Player of the Year multiple times. He can take

357
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: over a game. And as we were talking about, they

358
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 1: were letting the guys play, and his compete level is

359
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: as high as anybody ever to play this game. And

360
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter of game on the line, that is

361
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,479
Speaker 1: a guy that I'm running away from. I'm running outside

362
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: zone on third and one away from him. I don't care.

363
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,880
Speaker 1: According to Zach Taylor, they've been doing it all year

364
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: where in certain situations on third down they'll take Joe

365
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 1: Mixon out and bringing Preyer line to me. You got

366
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 1: to know down in distance obviously, you know both backs

367
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 1: are very capable of getting a couple of yards. But

368
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 1: I guess they've been doing that the entire season. Well,

369
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: it maybe have worked in the regular season, didn't work

370
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: on Super Bowl Sundays. Aaron Donald comes up with the

371
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 1: stop back to back plays. Fact Sean McVay NFL Films

372
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,199
Speaker 1: caught the Rams head coach. He was wired up, actually

373
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 1: predicted Aaron Donald sealing that win for the Rams less

374
00:18:58,200 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 1: than he hard to gain on fourth down with four

375
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 1: three seconds remaining, Hi, what else could you want? What

376
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: else could you want? Let go? Let's go, Eric, bitch

377
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 1: at the moment right now, the whole championship, Hair Brow

378
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 1: to throw pourt He didn't. He blinked a lay on

379
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:34,880
Speaker 1: wordtown Eric down there, Yeah, yeah, the greatest of all

380
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: time does it? In the biggest moment of Super Bowl

381
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: fifty six, Eric eric Hire world chair World Chips would

382
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: that play? World Chaps would rick that play? Sean McVeigh

383
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 1: wired up on Super Bowl Sunday, NFL Films capturing that moment.

384
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,160
Speaker 1: And I'll say this true. The only good thing thing

385
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 1: that would come from the Rams winning this game is

386
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 1: if Aaron Donald does retire. As Rodney Harrison pointed out pregame,

387
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: which caused social media going into an uproar and all

388
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: of a sudden postgame Donald gets asked repeatedly about his future.

389
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 1: Would not give an inkling one way or the other.

390
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 1: But if Donald steps away because he's guys a super Bowl,

391
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 1: then you know what, congratulations Los Angeles out of the division,

392
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 1: out of the conference, out of the league. Yeah. I'd

393
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: be more concerned though, with Seaun mcbaby and clairvoyant because

394
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: he knew that was going to happen. Apparently. Yes, I

395
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: think Aaron Donald leaving this division, leaving football, everybody except

396
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: for the Los Angeles Rams would welcome that. And he

397
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: has had a tremendous career. And we were talking about

398
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 1: it before because everybody's asking about Tom Brady and retirement

399
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,119
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. When we see these records to

400
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: be brooken, there's a different breed of athlete coming in now, right,

401
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 1: There's a different type of mentality to play this game.

402
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 1: And there's a lot of reasons why we're motivated to

403
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: play this game. The longevity that we saw for decades

404
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 1: and the way the game was played. It's changing. It's different.

405
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 1: I mean, even Sean McVay is talking about maybe taking

406
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 1: time away because you realize this is a game, this

407
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:11,679
Speaker 1: is what we do, and you can get wrapped up

408
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: in and you have to be all in to be successful.

409
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 1: You have to be all in to do this. But

410
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 1: there's other things family, you know, marriage, all of this

411
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 1: that you want to take into consideration because you know

412
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: how much it takes to be able to be really

413
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 1: good at your craft and to be you know, I mean,

414
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: we saw it with Larry unfortunately. You know, Ry my

415
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: son was asking me, He's like, when's Larry gonn a

416
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 1: file for retirement? Dad? And I go, I don't. I

417
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: don't know if you ever will. I don't think he's

418
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 1: worried about the four oh one K package like we are. Son.

419
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: But at the same time, you know, like these guys

420
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 1: that are the elite of the elite of the elite,

421
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 1: right like when they feel like they can't put the

422
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 1: time and effort into an other bodies like whatever the

423
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 1: reason is, they have earned the right to walk away

424
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: on their own accord. And Aaron Donald has done that

425
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: in spades, and he would be a first ballot Hall

426
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: of Famer now less seats said, I'm not buying it.

427
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 1: He's like, please, he's gonna get bored. Yeah. Now, obviously

428
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 1: he works out like a lot of guys doing the

429
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: Offsea and just get ready for a rigorous of a

430
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,159
Speaker 1: you know, twenty two games schedule for him. But you

431
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 1: just wonder how many injuries he's had over the years

432
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 1: where you know you got to worry about to hear

433
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: your mental and obviously you have family. Yeah, I just

434
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: think for him again to play at the highest level

435
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 1: that he expects of himself. Like maybe you know he

436
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 1: was saying, when I win a Super Bowl, I'll be done.

437
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 1: Like he's accomplished every individual accolade you could ever want.

438
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 1: At that position, he is held in the highest regard

439
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 1: all of these things, and then to go win the

440
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: ultimate prize in a team sport like this is what's

441
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,159
Speaker 1: there's nothing left to prove. I mean, that's why I

442
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: think that Tom Brady is in the same facet, was like,

443
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,880
Speaker 1: I want a Super Bowl apart from Bill Belichick. I've

444
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: proven that I can stand alone with a new team

445
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 1: and a new era, and so then it's time to

446
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 1: walk away and everybody again, they have all of their

447
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 1: own feelings on when that time is right for them,

448
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,439
Speaker 1: and hopefully people will respect that with Aaron and then

449
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 1: he'll make the right decision. Very well. Could have been

450
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 1: named MVP, he was not it went to Cooper Cup,

451
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: who finished with eight catches for ninety two yards and

452
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. But on that final drive, and remember no

453
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 1: O B. J. Van Jefferson, maybe with other things on

454
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 1: his mind. Congratulations to him and his family on the

455
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 1: birth of their second child, and congratulations to Cardinals wide

456
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: receivers coach Sean Jefferson a grandfather two times over now.

457
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: But on that final drive, Cup four catches for thirty

458
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,479
Speaker 1: nine yards, ran seven yards to convert a fourth and one.

459
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 1: He was targeted seven times on that drive. We know

460
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 1: opponents know Drew that Stafford's gonna look for Cooper Cup,

461
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: yet he continues to get open. And I think it's

462
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: a credit to not only the quarterback, but the wide

463
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 1: receiver as well, running routes and then selling blocking and

464
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: then flaring out as a wide receiver. But even when

465
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: you know what the other team's gonna do, you still

466
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 1: have to stop it. And we've seen not only the Bengals,

467
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,680
Speaker 1: but the forty nine ers the Buccaneers could not stop

468
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,439
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup in the playoffs. I mean, it's the deadliest

469
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: weapon you can have as an intelligent wide receiver that

470
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:10,919
Speaker 1: can be on the same page with you, that can

471
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: identify coverages and pressures and all of these things because

472
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: they try to change coverage up. They were doing different things.

473
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: They were trying to double him, they're trying to in

474
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:19,640
Speaker 1: and out him, and he's hooking up and the balls

475
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,400
Speaker 1: on him so fast that he before they can do anything. Okay,

476
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: So then you go to a three deep zone and

477
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 1: Matthew does a tremendous job of sitting in the pocket

478
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: and they just get this in route right in behind

479
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 1: those first level of defenders. Then the linebacker has no

480
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 1: idea and Cooper's exactly where he's supposed to be when

481
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: he's supposed to be there, and Matthew knows that, can

482
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 1: trust that. I mean, it was a clinic of what

483
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 1: was going on. And then again they get down on

484
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 1: the goal line, they get in the red zone and

485
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: Matthew just clicks, you know, just hand signals or probably

486
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: doesn't even need a hand signals. Cooper, they know it's

487
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 1: cover zero, it's a loaded box. There's no help. He

488
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: does such an amazing job of being patient to tack

489
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: his leverage go inside, and then Matthew can He's got

490
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: a two way go. Okay, if Cooper beats him to

491
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,360
Speaker 1: the back of the pylon, he can put the ball there.

492
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 1: If he doesn't he feels I'm playing over the top,

493
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: he can back shoulder like he did. So. I mean,

494
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 1: those guys that have the body control all of those

495
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: things that you can marry up together in crunch time

496
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: and have the presence to do it and the wherewithal

497
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 1: to overcome all of the moving pieces. It was so impressive.

498
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,399
Speaker 1: I mean, I know people are making a lot to

499
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: do about Matthew and his performance and it was remarkable.

500
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 1: But Cooper Cup is the reason why that team won.

501
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald is why the reason why that team won. Yeah,

502
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: and he talked about it earlier two draft picks. Now,

503
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: according to Pro Football folks, he had the highest graded

504
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: receiver ninety two eighth this season. He hauled in one

505
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy eight passes for two hundred or two thousand,

506
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 1: four hundred and twenty five yards twenty two touchdowns over

507
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: the regular season in playoffs. Wow, and everyone knows they're

508
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 1: trying to throw it to him, right, Like that's the thing.

509
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 1: It's not like he's some like well kept secret around

510
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: what's going on. But because he has the freedom and

511
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: these option routes he's always going to make the right choice.

512
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 1: He's always going to be at the right depth of

513
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:58,639
Speaker 1: where he needs to be. He's always going to do

514
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: all these things. And he's unset. He's not one of

515
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 1: those guys that's sitting there worried about it, because he

516
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 1: knows when his plays come, he's going to make the

517
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: most of it. The final drive, all of a sudden,

518
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: you could just see him start building momentum and building momentum,

519
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 1: and you know, much like we saw with Larry the

520
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: course of his career. Here you get the ball in

521
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: his hands and everybody else there's this belief system that

522
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 1: just elevates of everybody on the team because of it.

523
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 1: And then you go score, and then you flip it

524
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,399
Speaker 1: over and say, all right, all right, Aaron, go win

525
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 1: the game for us. Of course, it also nice to

526
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: have a quarterback who can throw passes without looking at

527
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 1: the wide receiver. Yeah, end zone. Look. That has kind

528
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: of caused a lot of controversy. It caused a lot

529
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 1: of attention as far as on that final drive, Stafford's

530
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: looking to the sideline and all of a sudden, throws

531
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: and there's Cooper Cup coming across the middle and wide

532
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 1: open exactly. And that's the maturity level of what a

533
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: quarterback can do. That understands coverages, They can understand time

534
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 1: and space and where guys are supposed to be. But

535
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 1: also a trust factor, right like in a zone concept

536
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 1: or his own defense and you're going against he knows

537
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 1: where his windows are. He's trying to open windows with

538
00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: his eyes and he can do that because of his

539
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 1: head everywhere, though his lower body isn't in position to

540
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: make the throw of where he wants to go, and

541
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: then it's just a matter of getting his heads there

542
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,880
Speaker 1: and completing it. But he's done that throw so many times.

543
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 1: I mean, I've seen him do that numerous times. And

544
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys in this league that have

545
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: that kind of capability through film study, through understanding the

546
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,360
Speaker 1: offense and the magnitude of what's going on, whether it's

547
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,640
Speaker 1: down in distance, being able to put the ball exactly

548
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 1: where he wants to. But he is also one of

549
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:27,199
Speaker 1: the few people that can do without looking. Stafford finished

550
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,439
Speaker 1: twenty six forty for two hundred and eighty three yards,

551
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: three touchdowns, two interceptions, a couple of sacks. That first interception, though,

552
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 1: might have been just one of those hey it's third

553
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,439
Speaker 1: and long. We're gonna punt anyway, let me just kind

554
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 1: of see what happens. And it didn't work. But the

555
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 1: second one, fortunately for the Rams, Bengal is only able

556
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 1: to convert a field goal. Yeah, that second turnover. So

557
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 1: Rams beat the Bengals twenty three to twenty, overcoming a

558
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,679
Speaker 1: seven point deficits midway through the third quarter. And yes,

559
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: the Lombardi Trophy is inside the NFC West, the best

560
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: division in football. But what's next? As we now officially

561
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: turned the page, all thirty two teams turned the page

562
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 1: and look towards twenty twenty two. We've hit halftime here

563
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 1: on the Cardinals read Sea Report presented by Seek Get

564
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,400
Speaker 1: your seats any seats. When we come back, we continue

565
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 1: talking the NFC West and the Cardinals spots within the division.

566
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,120
Speaker 1: That's all straight ahead here on the Arizona Cardinals Rightio

567
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: Network in the victory formation, Stafford gets the swamp in

568
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 1: dose doing the the benches are gonna empty and the

569
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 1: Rams are gonna win it with the script right out

570
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: of Hollywood and the star started in Los Angeles. Rams,

571
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: all right, yet they have won Super Bowl fifty six

572
00:28:53,920 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 1: and traumatic coming from behind fashion why out all finished?

573
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: On Super Bowl Sunday, Kevin Harland on Westwood One, the

574
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: final call. Rams beat the Bengals, and yes they are

575
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: Super Bowl champions. Now we get to ask everyone here

576
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: on the Cardinals read Sea Report present to buy sekiek

577
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 1: get your seats in a seats They've had a day,

578
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 1: a couple of days to celebrate, but MJ. Now moving forward,

579
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Rams the team to beat, not only

580
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 1: in the Tire League, but certainly in the NFC, in

581
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,479
Speaker 1: the NFC West. There could be a lot of changes

582
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: though for Los Angeles, beginning with what will likely happen

583
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 1: later this week. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, which has

584
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: long been reported, they're oc Kevin O'Connell's expected to become

585
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: the new Vikings head coach. Nothing announced officially yet, but

586
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 1: perhaps later in the week. So there's one piece, and

587
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: then perhaps maybe Aaron Donald and maybe even the head

588
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: coach himself, Sean McVay stepping away. Yeah, and then you

589
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 1: throw on Andrew Whitworth. I mean, this is I mean,

590
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 1: guys forty years old, and this is the way you

591
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: kind of walk off your It was the Walter Payton

592
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 1: Man of the Year so yeah, we'll have to wait

593
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: and see. Now, you know, when it comes to O'Connell

594
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 1: that he's never called plays, but obviously he told the

595
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 1: Vikings everything they wanted to hear when it comes to

596
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, and you know, Kirk Cousins will be at

597
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 1: least the quarterback for next year. But you know, Sean

598
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 1: McVay is putting a lot of guys in the NFL

599
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 1: as head coaches, and you know, we'll see what happens.

600
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 1: But they called a press conference or Thursday. But if

601
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: McVeigh taps out, I gotta think that O'Connell would stay

602
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles. Again, we'll just have to wait and see. Well,

603
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: the counterpart across the field Zach Taylor on that Sean

604
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: mcveay coaching tree along with Matt Lafleur Brandon Staley. So

605
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: what's hee thirty six years old, the youngest head coach

606
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 1: to win a Super Bowl and already with several tree

607
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 1: branches on his coaching tree. But the idea of repeating

608
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 1: Drew It gets brought up every single year when that

609
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: team wins. Obviously, last year Tampa Bay goes all in

610
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 1: bringing everyone back, chose not to bring you back, and

611
00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,959
Speaker 1: maybe that's why the Buccaneers did not repeats this past season.

612
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: They are gained their loss, but the idea of a

613
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 1: team repeating, and it's been a long long time since

614
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,440
Speaker 1: anyone's been able to do that. Well, I was waiting

615
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 1: for the phone to ring week seventeen and it never did,

616
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: so I went about my business and showed up to

617
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: work with you guys appreciate that. But anyways, I yeah,

618
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 1: it's extremely difficult to repeat because each year is so different.

619
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: Some would say that the home team has the advantage

620
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl. So Craig, you can get excited.

621
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 1: Now we can start the chatter. Tampa Bay one in

622
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, Los Angeles run and we all know where

623
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 1: next year it is, so I we'll start the train

624
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 1: right now. But repeating with that team it's gonna look

625
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: completely different. I mean, you see Robert Woods and them

626
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 1: losing him was extremely difficult. His recovery will be important.

627
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: And again you just try and mix and match pieces.

628
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: They've got to extend Matthew. They've got so many things

629
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 1: that they can do. But again, the core of what

630
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 1: they have in place is special. It would say, it's

631
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 1: trending in the right direction. But there's plenty of team

632
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: that aren't going to go out and make a lot

633
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: of different moves that we're closed. But again we'll start

634
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 1: to talk now, let's talk in December. Yeah, and it's

635
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 1: late December, especially when you talk about the Arizona Cardinals

636
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,959
Speaker 1: and how they perhaps finish twenty twenty two. The other

637
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: team that reached the NFC Championship Game, MJA the forty

638
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: nine ers. They also are losing their offensive coordinator. Mike

639
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: McDaniel is the new Dolphins head coach. And then the

640
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: question is, all right, what do you do at the

641
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: quarterback position? It is Trey Lance Ready or Jimmy Garoppolo,

642
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: who is still under contract and advanced this team to

643
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, to another NFC Championship game. Does he

644
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: get another opportunity although his season ending post press conference

645
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 1: made it seem like he was walking out the door. Yeah,

646
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: I think there's going to be a market out there

647
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 1: for him, whether it's Pittsburgh or possibly Tampa Bay. I know,

648
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 1: maybe he doesn't throw the ball down the field like

649
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 1: they like, but you know, according to Joan Montana, they

650
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 1: should keep him. They don't think Trey lance is ready.

651
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 1: We know it's all predicated on their running game. They

652
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: do have weapons on the outside, and obviously they have

653
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: a really good front four and defense, so only John

654
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 1: Lynch and Kyle Shanahan would know that. But I think

655
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: they're gonna get some draft capital for trading Jimmy Garoppolo.

656
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 1: Lance obviously has the skill set that every team is

657
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: looking for as far as the arm and then the

658
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 1: scrambling ability. Garoppolo doesn't have that, at least not to

659
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 1: the level of the Trey Lance. But there's more to

660
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 1: that position than just a skill set. And where do

661
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 1: you fall on that drew As far as looking from

662
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: afar at what the forty nine ers were able to

663
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: accomplish this season, knowing the Cardinals did face both quarterbacks

664
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: this season, Yeah, it's extremely difficult. You see the two

665
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: game plans that were implemented when we played against them.

666
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: Trey Lance is the new wave of a quarterback that

667
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: is added dynamic with his with those running ability. So

668
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: they're in a tough spot. They traded up, They gave

669
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: up a bunch of draft capital to go get Trey

670
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 1: Lance with that third pick. They did all these things

671
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 1: saying that hey, Jimmy isn't our guy moving forward, So

672
00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: I would think that they would trade him. I mean,

673
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 1: all incations are that they would get something in return,

674
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 1: because you don't want to walk in the next season,

675
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 1: and then all there's this weird feeling out period of well, yeah,

676
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: when's Tray gonna take over? What's it going to be?

677
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: I would think that they need to sever the ties

678
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 1: with Jimmy, say hey, we really appreciate everything you did

679
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: Trey as our guy moving forward, because there can only

680
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 1: be one voice in that locker room, one sounding board.

681
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: Guys have to get used to that, they have to

682
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: gravitate towards that, they've got to buy in and that

683
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: offense is gonna have to change. Like we said, you're

684
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 1: gonna see a lot more because of his athletic ability

685
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: with the run game, but it's got to be balanced out.

686
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 1: If you don't want to hear all of a sudden

687
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 1: get done with their season next year and they've got

688
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: seventy sacks. I mean, it'd be good for us as

689
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: Cardinals just to see that. But from the standpoint of

690
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 1: him taking those steps, being the guy starting now is

691
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 1: vital for him to be able to grow. And you're

692
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 1: gonna take some lumps, You're gonna maybe take a step back,

693
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 1: but hopefully take a few steps forward at the same

694
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: time because of how you want to grow this team

695
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 1: over the course of the next couple of years. On

696
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 1: the quarterback conversation, shifting gears to the Seattle Seahawks Russell Wilson.

697
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:02,359
Speaker 1: A year ago, it was maybe late February, early March,

698
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: talk of Hey, I'm okay, but if you wanted to trade,

699
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: here are four teams I would agree to be traded too.

700
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 1: Now another offseason of perhaps some question where the Seahawks

701
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 1: and Russell Wilson stand. Yeah, well, I think it's interesting

702
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: because this is the first time they've been at the bottom. Right,

703
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 1: they have not been at the bottom. The Pete Carroll

704
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:24,279
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson duo have not been at the bottom of

705
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 1: this division. Though it's very competitive and it's not going away.

706
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 1: They've got to take an honest assessment because they got

707
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 1: their butts whipped for the majority of the year in

708
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 1: this division. Besides, you know, a couple of games here

709
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 1: there at that. In that regard though, what is going

710
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 1: to change, what's gonna look different? And I wouldn't be

711
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,440
Speaker 1: shocked to see Russell because you've seen some quarterbacks go

712
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: on the move and have success. And he's following Matthew

713
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 1: Stafford's blueprint, or he's gonna follow you know, Tom Brady's blueprint.

714
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,960
Speaker 1: He has enough left in the tank to be able

715
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:55,440
Speaker 1: to go in there. He's going to have instant credibility

716
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: when he shows up in that locker room. He's going

717
00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 1: to be the undotted leader. He could do all these things,

718
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 1: and he can also guys with him. I mean there's

719
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,399
Speaker 1: talk of Aaron Rodgers leaving and Davante Adams's like, I'm

720
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 1: going wherever he's going, right Like, there's guys that want

721
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 1: to play with these iconic type of quarterbacks. So if

722
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:11,440
Speaker 1: he goes somewhere, he's gonna have a greater effect, much

723
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 1: of like O'Dell showing up with the Rams because he

724
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,759
Speaker 1: knew he was playing with Matthew Stafford. I wouldn't be

725
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 1: shocked to see it happened. But all again, some guys wanna,

726
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,839
Speaker 1: you know, our throwback players, traditional guys where he might

727
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 1: just want to stay there his entire career. He has

728
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,280
Speaker 1: such loyal fan base there. They've had a lot of success,

729
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 1: and you know, they weren't able to stay healthy. They

730
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 1: didn't get on the same page all that, but this

731
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,400
Speaker 1: division is extremely difficult, so maybe he's like, let's go

732
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,839
Speaker 1: try somewhere else. Well, the thing is what's behind door

733
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: number two? Though? If you trade Russell Wilson. Yeah, I

734
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 1: know there's a lot of free agent quarterbacks out there,

735
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 1: but you know, the grass isn't always growing on the

736
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: other side. And clearly they're a team that Cardinals are

737
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 1: the only team that has a first round pick this year,

738
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 1: so he probably couldn't acquire some assets there and get

739
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 1: somebody out of the money off the books. But they're

740
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,840
Speaker 1: not prepared like to San Francisco Cordion Iris round they

741
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:02,960
Speaker 1: can just turn the keys over to Trey Lance. Well,

742
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,399
Speaker 1: much of their conversation or much of what they've done

743
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 1: so far MJ has been focusing on the defense. I mean,

744
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 1: they let Ken Norton Junior go, they've got promoted with

745
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:11,839
Speaker 1: it from what then to bring in a new CC

746
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 1: and that was a poor defense, especially past defense last year. Yeah,

747
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: and that's where they kind of hung their hand hat

748
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 1: when Legion of Boom and they were making a run.

749
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 1: They were winning twelve or thirteen games every year. Twenty

750
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: eighth in total defense. The Seahawks in twenty twenty one

751
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:32,359
Speaker 1: only eighteen takeaways, so we'll see what happens. It's going

752
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 1: to be a fascinating offseason for the entire division. Now

753
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 1: what happens with the Arizona Cardinals stand the number of

754
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 1: needs that the Cardinals have. Will touch on that as

755
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: we continue here on the Cardinals Red Sea Report, presented

756
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 1: by a seat geek get your seats in a seat,

757
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: Greig Rayo, the Drew Standing and Mike Drecky. We do

758
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 1: what every Tuesday, eleven am, year round, talking Arizona Cardinals

759
00:37:53,920 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 1: football here on the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network. Got gun staff,

760
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 1: Lawrence free step drop open in the pocket, buyers across

761
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 1: the middle. It's intercepted. It was deflected and picked off

762
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: by Byron Murphy. Lawrence takes turns, gives to hide. It's

763
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 1: a police flicker, pitching it back to Lawrence. Season crumbill

764
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 1: jump off past, picked off nearside by Murphy at the thirty,

765
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:22,399
Speaker 1: running it back to the left of the twenty tenth

766
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 1: five cut down Byron Murphy after a horrible mistake by

767
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: the rookie with a pick six, and the Cardinals are

768
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 1: back in front. Twenty three to nineteen Byron Murphy was

769
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:38,719
Speaker 1: all over that that's a great read by a young

770
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 1: guy coming of age, but seem high and career best

771
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:48,959
Speaker 1: four interceptions for Byron Murphy those two picks at Jacksonville.

772
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,720
Speaker 1: They've passed Ron Wolfley with the call. As we continue

773
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 1: here on the Cardinals Red Sea Report presented by Seat Geek,

774
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: get your seats and a seats, turning our attention MJ

775
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,359
Speaker 1: to the Ars the Cardinals. We just kind of broke

776
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,160
Speaker 1: down the NFC West forty nine Ers, Seahawks, and Rams.

777
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 1: But the Cardinals with a lot of needs, a lot

778
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,400
Speaker 1: of wants shopping list if you will, And yeah, I

779
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 1: would put cornerback up there among the many different positions

780
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 1: that the Cardinals might have their eye on in terms

781
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 1: of free agency and the draft. Yeah, we're just gonna

782
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 1: have to wait and see what happens in free agency

783
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 1: and then what they don't get in free agency they

784
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: normally will address in the draft, and they have undrafted

785
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 1: free agents they want to retain some of their own

786
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 1: players before these guys obviously go test the marketing. We're

787
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 1: probably gonna have to wait and see just based on

788
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: what the market is. Yeah, cornerback, I mean, you know

789
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,800
Speaker 1: when we look back, and they really didn't bring it

790
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 1: up during the year, but it would have been nice

791
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 1: if Malcolm Butler was around, because I thought towards the

792
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: second half of the season, Marco Wilson, I mean, teams

793
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 1: are targeting him, didn't have great technique and maybe hit

794
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 1: that rookie wall even though they won't admit it, they

795
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 1: missed Robert Alford. He's one of the more physical corners.

796
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 1: Biber and Murphy got up to a great start, but

797
00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 1: he kind of tailed off towards the end of the season.

798
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 1: He was getting targeted, you know, Antonio Hamilton. So I

799
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 1: would think corner is a position that you're going to

800
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,800
Speaker 1: have to address, not only for maybe a starter, but

801
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 1: there some depth at that position defensive line, edge rusher,

802
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 1: depending on what happens with Chandler Jones. And you look

803
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 1: at your side of the wall Drew as far as

804
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 1: another offensive weapon opposite DeAndre Hopkins, the offensive line, specifically

805
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 1: right guard, do you have a priority as far as

806
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 1: what you want to see General manager Steve come and

807
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 1: his staff do as far as number one priority or

808
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 1: the number one thing that needs to be taken care

809
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 1: of this offseason before the team gets into training camp, yeah,

810
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 1: like MJ said, I think first you circle the wagons

811
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:43,760
Speaker 1: and keep the pieces that you feel like our assets

812
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:45,920
Speaker 1: moving forward, either guys that you feel like phil a

813
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 1: roll like you for you like Colt did. I mean

814
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 1: a tremendous job of backing up. But then when he

815
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,680
Speaker 1: gets an opportunity, he wins two out of three starts.

816
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:55,359
Speaker 1: That's all you can ask for, So that was great.

817
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: We talked about James Connor at nause even about how

818
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 1: good of a value that was. You know, you typically

819
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 1: don't see guys that you know get overpaid to be

820
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 1: running back, so hopefully they can find a way to

821
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 1: keep him. And then some of the young guys that

822
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:11,399
Speaker 1: you drafted, have you seen enough growth in Chase Edmonds?

823
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,239
Speaker 1: Have you seen enough growth in Christian Kirk to be

824
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,359
Speaker 1: able to say, hey, we want to invest in you more.

825
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,279
Speaker 1: And it's hard because you're still betting on the come

826
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 1: with both of those guys in particular, right, but you

827
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: need playmakers or everybody that we saw in the super Bowl.

828
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: In the playoffs, there's those wide receiving cores because those

829
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,240
Speaker 1: are the mismatches because you're seeing second and third corners.

830
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,399
Speaker 1: You put in bad situations because the depth just isn't

831
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: there in this league. So you can never have enough

832
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 1: playmakers in my opinion, as a quarterback. So you got

833
00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: to go out and try and find Dion Jerry Hopkins,

834
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 1: somebody that we saw earlier in the year, take the

835
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,960
Speaker 1: heat off of him, get those one on ones and

836
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 1: when they do be able to recognize it and attack it.

837
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 1: I think a huge thing is a tight end position

838
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 1: because Max Williams was doing so well of staying in

839
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,239
Speaker 1: the packages that this offense wants to be and so

840
00:41:56,520 --> 00:42:00,919
Speaker 1: fit that identity. And I mean it's the NFL in general.

841
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:02,800
Speaker 1: There's not enough offensive linemen to go around. There's not

842
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:04,880
Speaker 1: enough time to train them, there's not enough to do

843
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 1: all of these things that you want to do as

844
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 1: far as the offensive line is concerned. But you've got

845
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 1: some really key pieces. Rodney Hudson is a centerpiece that

846
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,279
Speaker 1: we talked about numerous times. It's making the calls of

847
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:19,600
Speaker 1: doing that, keeping that continuity for your franchise quarterback moving forward,

848
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,400
Speaker 1: and many of those things on offense is really important.

849
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,800
Speaker 1: And then defensively, like again, just addressing the areas of

850
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,879
Speaker 1: pass rushing because everybody wants pass rushers. You know, all

851
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 1: of these things. But for what we're looking at and

852
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 1: the draft picks that we've had, those linebackers are so dynamic.

853
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:37,919
Speaker 1: They've got to step up. They've got to be able

854
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 1: to make the plays that we need to do, and

855
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:40,920
Speaker 1: they need to be on the field. They've got to

856
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 1: be able to either learn the defense. The defense has

857
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 1: to get more simplistic, whatever it is to allow these

858
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: athletes to be the athletes they are because they're I mean,

859
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: what it was our five Pro bowlers on the Cardinals

860
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:52,920
Speaker 1: when it was all said done. I mean, there is

861
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,880
Speaker 1: at an elite level of talent at some very important positions.

862
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 1: Now it's finding these guys that are tremendous role players

863
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:01,320
Speaker 1: because that's just veteran guy that you need to be

864
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 1: able to step in. In other words, a lot of

865
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,920
Speaker 1: work is needed to be done this offseason. Here's the

866
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 1: head coach, Cliff Kingsbury. We've got a lot of work

867
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 1: to do, and we want to be better and finished

868
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,720
Speaker 1: stronger and all those things. But um, we definitely improved

869
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: dramatically in the first three years and we're hoping to

870
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,239
Speaker 1: do the same next year and we're gonna have to.

871
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 1: NFC West is a challenge year and you're out with

872
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 1: great players and um, great teams, and uh, we gotta

873
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 1: make some some real progress if we want to keep up,

874
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 1: keep pace within the division, keep pace within the conference. MJ. So, yeah,

875
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,320
Speaker 1: there are there are a lot of needs, and we

876
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:36,160
Speaker 1: think that there's a lot of time as we talk

877
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,800
Speaker 1: here in February and the season and doesn't begin until September.

878
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,000
Speaker 1: But things tend to happen very quickly. Yeah, and the

879
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,880
Speaker 1: Cardinals will currently have eight draft picks. Um, they won't

880
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:46,279
Speaker 1: have it what was it, A four and a five,

881
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 1: three and four, three and four, sorry, four and five,

882
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 1: four and five right, because they made a trade for

883
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:55,840
Speaker 1: Rodney for Marco Wilson, Mark will fifth role. Now, I

884
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: do think you know Zach Ertz is a priority to

885
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 1: bring back, and I think you Max Williams, you know,

886
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 1: on a minimum deal with incentives game d act if

887
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 1: he was active. And then as we've talked about, this

888
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 1: draft is loaded at the tight end position so you

889
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: can develop someone. So I think you know when Max

890
00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 1: is a perfect eleven personnel tight end meeting potatoes Kyler,

891
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 1: truss him down the scene. He's a good red zone

892
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:18,799
Speaker 1: guy and catch on third down. And we know Zach

893
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 1: Ertz can get open in the open field. Not not

894
00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:24,359
Speaker 1: the best blocker, but he's very effective in the passing game.

895
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,120
Speaker 1: By the way, Aaron Brewer and Andy Lee are also Yeah,

896
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 1: we didn't Yeah, we didn't get brew Dog back for sure.

897
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 1: And Andy if he wants to keep playing, I mean

898
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 1: he was in the same draft class as Larry. Yeah,

899
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 1: just right up the contract, he'll sign it. Nita long snapper,

900
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,799
Speaker 1: Nita Puncher. So again, a lot to keep an eye

901
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: on here and we'll do it as well here on

902
