1 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:09,639 Speaker 1: Welcome Third Gang. On today's show, we begin ankle watch. 2 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 1: In other words, what's the latest here on a Wednesday 3 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: on Kyle Murray? It is the storyline heading into week nine, 4 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,800 Speaker 1: at least on the Cardinals end. And regardless of whether 5 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: or not Murray plays, how does the offense handle one 6 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: of the toughest defense of fronts in the league? But first, 7 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: are we okay with standing Patton? The NFL trade deadline 8 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 1: came and went without a move at Cardinals Cover two, 9 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:40,879 Speaker 1: Episode four eighty nine, and it starts now. Welcome to 10 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: Cardinals Cover two with Craig Grigolu and Mike Jarecki. Cardinals 11 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 1: Cover two is presented by Hyunday, proud partner of the 12 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals, and by Arizona Cardinals Podcasts. Visit Easy Cardinals 13 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: dot Com slash podcasts Going for Hopkins one end to 14 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: catch in a touchdown DeAndre Hopkins. Here's Craig Griolu and 15 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: Mike Jarecki. No, the Cardinals did not make a move. 16 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: On Tuesday, The one pm NFL trade deadline passed with 17 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 1: no news, and there are some who are upset by that. MJ. 18 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: But let's not forget Burt Gang two and a half 19 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: weeks earlier, GM Steve come did acquire a player tied 20 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: end Zach Ertz October fifteenth, and a move I think 21 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: needed to be made after the injury to Max Wiyors. 22 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 1: And what do we talk about at the time, Steve 23 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: did not wait for the deadline. Maybe you know, obviously 24 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: Ertz was healthy when they made the trade. He pass 25 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: the physical. But you know a lot of in between 26 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: time there. Listen. I understand fans, you know, it's like, 27 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: you know, they want a new toy, but it's not 28 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: fantasy football. I mean I was told they worked the phones. 29 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: I think they were looking more at the back seven, 30 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: maybe linebacker possibly you know, corner, defensive back or in 31 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: this case, yeah, possibly safety. But I think we were 32 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: consistently so I was when it came to the D 33 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: line and you know, getting Corey Peters back and Richard Lawrence, 34 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 1: I mean all of a sudden he got eight or 35 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: nine bodies and Josh Morrel. So I understand it's just 36 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: this team. I mean, as long as they can stay healthy. 37 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: I mean there they have a lot of good depth 38 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 1: at certain positions. Yes, you'd like to have, you know, 39 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: more players, but the roster we see is ninety nine. 40 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: We're going to see the rest of the season, and 41 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: injuries are parts of the season. No team goes through 42 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: an entire year on Skye. So it is a question 43 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: of depth. You lose Max Williams, there's not a lot 44 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: of depth behind him one because of the nature of 45 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: the position, the tied end position. You lose a JJ Watt. Yes, 46 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: that is a big hole, but there are guys behind him. 47 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: Now are they as good as J. J Watt? Of 48 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: course not, But there is depth. There are bodies there. 49 00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: Could you have acquired somebody? Sure, tell me who, Tell 50 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: me what the cost is, and tell me how it's 51 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: gonna affect the salary cap. Same thing when we were 52 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: talking about offensive line and the right guard position, because 53 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: of the angst amongst the fan base about Josh Jones, 54 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: but that side of the ball also is getting healthier. 55 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: On the offensive line. So I get it, I certainly 56 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: understand it, but there is just not It's not as 57 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: easy as saying, all right, MJ who's available. All right, 58 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 1: let's just go get got that guy. It doesn't work 59 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: that way. No, And you know, I was exchanging a 60 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: text message with somebody in the building and they said, 61 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: teams are just reluctant to give up on good players. 62 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: And you know, different sports, you know, you could see 63 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: when teams are waving the white flag. Now, in fairness 64 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: of the NFL, it pushed the trade deadline two weeks 65 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: past where it was before, so you would think you 66 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: have some more activity, but it takes two to tango. 67 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: And again, teams aren't just giving away good players because 68 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: and it comes down to, you know, Fletcher Cox. Everyone's 69 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: talking about Fletcher Cox closely, not the same guy, but 70 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: he's a guy you can plug and play. And all 71 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you know, Glazier reports that teams are 72 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: reaching out, and then he posted he's staying in Philadelphia. 73 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: So just a lot of speculation and really none of 74 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: it really comes true. Now when it comes to zach Ertz, 75 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: now we gotta let this play out. But I think 76 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: he could be more than a rental player. Craig and 77 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: I don't know what the salary is. I know he 78 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: likes being here, he knows the grass isn't always grinning 79 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: on the other side. I don't know if it's six 80 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: seven million. And then you bring back Max Williams at 81 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: a little bit of lower rate. I think they think 82 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 1: of Max is a number two just based on his 83 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: skill set, even though we thought of he was a one. 84 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: And then the draft is loaded that tight end. The 85 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: Cardinals will have eight draft picks, so and I think 86 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: they do want to address a young tight end for 87 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,799 Speaker 1: the future. But you still have a couple of veteran 88 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: guys that will get you over the hump. So depending 89 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: on how it plays out, I think it's more than 90 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: just a rental. I think, you know, again, he loves 91 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: being here, he loves the offense. He's integrated himself with 92 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: the team. We'll just have to wait and see. But 93 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 1: I you know, when they made the trade, well, he's 94 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: a rental. I think they think more of him right now. 95 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,679 Speaker 1: I would be very curious to see and to your point, 96 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: how this plays out. Just how involved is he? Yeah, 97 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: he made a splash his debut, but how does it 98 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: continue and play out? Because as we've seen, Max Williams 99 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: wasn't a large part of the offense as far as 100 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 1: catches are concerned. He was more in there because of 101 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: his run blocking ability. How does that factor in now 102 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: with Zach Ertz, who is not as good of a 103 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: blocker as Max Williams. It gives them more weapons again 104 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 1: healthy hop healthy, aj Greene, Rondel Moore, Christian Kirk got 105 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 1: the two backs. It just adds another element to their offense. 106 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: I mean, who are you going to roll coverage over? 107 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 1: And we know that Kyler has a trust factor, whether 108 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: it was Dan Arnold, whether it was Max Williams or 109 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: now zach Ertz. When you come down to the seam 110 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: and you're gonna take some hints. But I just like 111 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 1: the fact that he gives them another element to the 112 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 1: passing game. All right, let's go through the rest of 113 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 1: the division as far as what happened and what didn't 114 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,679 Speaker 1: happen with respect to the trade deadline. As we continue 115 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 1: here on Cardinals Cover two presented by Hunday, proud partner 116 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: of the Arizona Cardinals. The big move obviously was what 117 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: the Rams did and going out and acquiring von Miller. Now, 118 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 1: he is not the same von Miller that certainly was 119 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: a part that Denver Broncos franchise and certainly a huge 120 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 1: part of that franchise, but it is a big name 121 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 1: that obviously certainly looks good next to and Aaron Donald 122 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, the rest of the division 123 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: and the rest of the NFC is going, really seriously, 124 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 1: what are you doing? But that's just what the Rams do. 125 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: They give away their draft picks because they prefer the 126 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: known versus the unknown. Well, I think it's very clear 127 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 1: that they're going all in, and I think when it 128 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: comes to Stan Crunkie, he spent five billion dollars on 129 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: that stadium, and I don't think he wants another NFC 130 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: team playing in the Super Bowl besides the Rams. Now, 131 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 1: maybe Von Mill as a rental player. He's made a 132 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 1: ton of money in his career and if he does 133 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: go out in free agency, they would get a confensatory pick, 134 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: possibly as high as the third round. What I look 135 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: with what the Rams are doing with Leonard Floyd, Aaron Donald, 136 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey, and then throwing Von Miller, they realize when 137 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: they get to the postseason, they're gonna have to go 138 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: against Dak Prescott. He can run, Kyler Murray, he can run. 139 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's more of a pocket guy. Aaron Rodgers could 140 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: move in the outside the pocket. So they're gearing up 141 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: to stop these mobile quarterbacks because you know, clearly I 142 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: always say Sam Bradford, Matthew Stafford and Brady are more 143 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: pocket patchers. But you look at the other guys and 144 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: we haven't even talked about some of the possibly wildcard teams, 145 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: but that they're gearing up to stop those quarterbacks in 146 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: the postseason. This season, Miller has recorded four and a 147 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: half sacks, seven tackles for loss, and nine quarterback hits. Now, 148 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: you don't need him to be von Miller of the past, 149 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: but certainly it is another body, more depth at that position. 150 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: And maybe now with opposing offenses. You look at the 151 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: Rams defense at front and all right, yeah, we always 152 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: key on Aaron Donald, but hey, don't forget about this player. 153 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: Don't forget about von Miller, because he can certainly wreck 154 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: an offense. And maybe it's not so much and I've 155 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: heard this narrative nationally, Maybe it's not so much what 156 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: he does in November December, but the place he makes 157 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: come postseason time in January late January, and of course, 158 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: at the cost of a second and third round pick 159 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: for the Rams, that would be worth the price to 160 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: get von Miller in a Rams uniform. He doesn't have 161 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: to be great, he's just got to contribute, stay healthy, 162 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,719 Speaker 1: and you know he's coming off on Achilles from last year, 163 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 1: so I mean that's a tough position to come back from. 164 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 1: He hasn't played in the last couple of weeks. Looks 165 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: like he could be activated on Sunday. But again, they 166 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: don't need him to be great, just contribute. And they 167 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: got enough playmakers on defense to where you know, who 168 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: do you double. Clearly they're moving Aaron Donald around a 169 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: lot more. He's not just lining up as a kinds 170 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 1: the nose tackle or against the center and guard. He's 171 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: lining up and Leonard Floyd can do a lot of 172 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: different things. So they don't need to him to be 173 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: the Alon Miller. They just need him to contribute. And 174 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: I'm sure they're going to get a nice little rotation 175 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: there when it comes to our outside backers. The forty 176 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: nine Ers, this week's opponent for the Cardinals, did make 177 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: a move as well. They acquired defensive lineman Charles Amena, 178 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 1: who from the Texans. A former fifth round draft pick 179 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: out of Texas and twenty nineteen a starter earlier in 180 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: the year, but his playing time had declined in recent weeks. 181 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,719 Speaker 1: Seven career sacks in thirty five games. Probably just a 182 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: little bit more depth, and don't forget factor in that 183 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: javon Kinlaw done for the season. That could have been 184 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: the replacement with what the Cardinals or exhuming with the 185 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: forty nine ers we're thinking with getting a Minahu well, 186 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: I also think there's something going on with D four. 187 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: And you know, they got another pass rusher. That's basically 188 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: what they did. They went out and got a pass rusher, 189 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: probably a situational guy, a rotation guy. But we'll find 190 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: out more about D four. We know bosas off to 191 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 1: a good start. They do have. You know, Fred Warner 192 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: is a really good middle backer. Mosley's playing better. I 193 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: still think you can attack that secondary, but you know, 194 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 1: we'll get into that later in the week here. But yeah, 195 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: they went out and got a pass rusher. Just trying 196 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: to kind of to see where d Ford. As we 197 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 1: know Bosa is going to play the majority of the snaps. 198 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,359 Speaker 1: D Ford did not play last week because of concussions. 199 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: Who will follow that storyline. And then the last team 200 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: in the division, the Seahawks, very quiet, although some news 201 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,439 Speaker 1: and that was revolving around their quarterback Russell Wilson, who 202 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 1: twitted out a picture no pen time to win. I 203 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: think that's what the phrasing was. But they didn't make 204 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: an addition as far as the roster, but certainly Russell 205 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: Wilson is trending to be an available following the Seahawks 206 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: by week Yeah, and that means he's probably gonna be 207 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: available for the Cardinals game. Cardinals have yet to play 208 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 1: the Seahawks. They play him and then they host him 209 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: in week eighteen, and we'll see what the Seahawks are 210 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: playing for at that point. Yeah, Cardinals at the Seahawks 211 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: on November twenty first, But all eyes this week. Week nine, 212 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: Levi Stadium, November seventh to twenty five is the kickoff 213 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: nine thirty am. Pregame coverage begins on the Arizona Cardinals 214 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 1: Radio network as the Cardinals seven to one take on 215 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: a three and four forty nine Ers team. And I 216 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 1: know we don't change clocks, but this week when you 217 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: wake up, games are gonna start at eleven AM. They're 218 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: gonna start at two o five, two twenty five, and 219 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: then the night games will start an hour later, so 220 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: we don't have to worry about that when if you're 221 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 1: looking to watch a game at ten am, it's not 222 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: gonna happen this weekend or for the rest of the season. 223 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: In Sunday night Monday night. Yet it's it's just something 224 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: you have to get used too, especially if you're new 225 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: to the area of the Arizona State just doesn't follow 226 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 1: daylight Savings time. They're always on Mountain Standard time. All right. 227 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: Cardinals Cover two presented by Honday, proud partner of the 228 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. Top Story of the Day, Top Story of 229 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 1: the week. Ankle watch is what we're talking about here. 230 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: Can k one kay one watch? All right? Well, it 231 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: was involved in the ankle true. There wasn't much to 232 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 1: watch though on Wednesday because Kyle Murray was not present 233 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 1: during the open portion of practice. Some other players absence 234 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,839 Speaker 1: as well, but some good news will get to that. 235 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: But let's just focus on k one not seen but 236 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: heard from. So that is good because the starting quarterback 237 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: speaks on Wednesday, and Kyle Murray did address the media 238 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: on Wednesday. Right between Kingsbury and Murray, what did you learn? 239 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: I learned that the ankle is fine, he's progressing, doesn't 240 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: need to practice in order to play. I think that 241 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: would be the ing. That's it. If we don't see 242 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:47,719 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray on the field Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, not 243 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: to worry, not to be concerned. That's not a signal 244 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: or an indication that he would be unavailable on Sunday. 245 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 1: That's what I learned. And he's getting mental reps obviously 246 00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: is aware of the game plan. That's when they install. 247 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: And the good news is if you know clearly Cliffs said, 248 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: it would be difficult to tell him he's not playing. 249 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: I mean it kind of paraphrasing, but you know, if 250 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: he's clear brother trainers, I mean, he wants to play. 251 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: I mean it's a division game. He wants to respond 252 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: from last week. So yeah, But the interesting thing and 253 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: I think Drew Stanton when he had him for the 254 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: Red Seat report, he said he really doesn't need to practice. 255 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: This about getting rehab, and it sounds like the time 256 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: off really helped him. And again, so I think it's 257 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: day to day, but I think it's training in the 258 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: right direction. We could wake up on Sunday and all 259 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you know he's either active or we 260 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: see Colton McCoy. But the good news is McCoy's gonna 261 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: get reps in practices this week when normally he's running 262 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: the scout team. Kingsbury noted that if this was a 263 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: year ago or even his first season, Kyle Murray would 264 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 1: have to be on the football field during the week 265 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: in order to be active on game day and uniform. 266 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: But because it's year three, he knows the system, there 267 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: are more weapons around him. He's not going to be 268 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: ast to do as much. Now, it's okay, let's put 269 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: you in that category of a DeAndre Hopkins and AJ Green, 270 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: A Rodney Hudson, a Chandler Jones. We know what you 271 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: can do, but if you're out there still studying, going 272 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: through walkthrough, that's different than we need to see you 273 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: going full speed during the week. Yeah, and you know, 274 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: Kyler was asked just about does he need to run? 275 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: He said, I don't need to run. We know his 276 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: numbers are down. You know you can go to easy 277 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: Cardinals dot com. Darren Urburn did are really in deep 278 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: dive that he's become a pocket passer. So, you know, 279 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: getting Hudson back and hopefully Garcia things to settle down 280 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: there and you got the run one two punch with 281 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: the running game, so he's not going to put his 282 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: his body and harton his way. And he did say 283 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: when he had the hamstring injury that was difficult just 284 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: to kind of move around. Then he had the shoulders, 285 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: So they're trying to avoid that because it happened the 286 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: first year and the second year, and it happened late 287 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: in the year, maybe the month of December. You gain 288 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: anything from tone of void as far as what Kyler said, 289 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: didn't say how he said certain things. Again, all the 290 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: entire price conference can be found on easy cardinals dot com. 291 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: But he didn't sound to me like he was not 292 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: going to play or there was an indication that he 293 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: was upset or concerned. It just seemed like a normal 294 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: Wednesday for Kyler Murray to address the media ahead of 295 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: that week's opponent. Yeah, I think he's feeling a lot 296 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: better than the way he left the field. According to 297 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 1: josh Winfish from ESPN, he was winning a walking boot, 298 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 1: And again, rest goes a long way, and I'm sure 299 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: that he was getting treatment around the clock. I don't 300 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: know if they went to his house. Obviously, you know, 301 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: he's just starting quarterback in the face of the franchise, 302 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: so there's a lot of ways. But I think downtime 303 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: went a long way, and if you think about it's 304 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: almost going to be nine or ten days to where 305 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: he would get back in the field. But I think 306 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: he's trending in the right direction. That's what I was 307 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: able to take away. He doesn't need to run, as 308 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: you noted, he said that as much, and I was 309 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: interest in. Kingsbury brought up my legs are a luxury 310 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: quote that now everyone has kind of grasped that Murray 311 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: mentioned during the offseason. But Kingsbury acknowledging that Kyler has 312 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: done a great job from the pocket. But what sets 313 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray aparts again, he doesn't need to run. I 314 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: don't needed to see another design run the rest of 315 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 1: the season to make sure that he is completely one 316 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: hundred percent. But it's the mobility to elude the pressure 317 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: extend plays because you're rolling out of the pockets, you're 318 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: turning your back to the defense, You're very elusive, You're 319 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: hard to catch that. I wonder how much factors into 320 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: not what is called on Sunday, but taking that part 321 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: of Kyler's game away and making him literally a pocket 322 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: quarterback Ie Tom Braid, if we were talking about a 323 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: hamstring injury or a growing injury, I don't want him 324 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: taken off now. I don't know if it's a lown 325 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 1: ankle spring is a high ankle spring because we know 326 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: the high can linger a little bit again, treatment just 327 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 1: being you know, getting a hot tub and the cold tub, 328 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: and but I still want him to take off again. 329 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: My thing is is how is he able to throw 330 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 1: the ball? You know, is he able to plant his 331 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: foot and extend the plays? Where does he feel anything? 332 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: Is there a little medicine involved there? But you know 333 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: how I feel, I still want him to take off 334 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: now as a hamstring and growing injury, back off because 335 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: those linger, not saying an ankle injury can't linger. But 336 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 1: the fact is that they haven't ruled him out, and 337 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 1: they're going to go through the entire week and it's 338 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: gonna be day to day and then we'll find out 339 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: it's probably going to be a game time decision. Yeah, 340 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: we're not going to know anything. When Kingsbury addresses the 341 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: media on Friday, I'm not expecting him to say, yes, 342 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: Kyler is going to start, or no, we've ruled him out. One. 343 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 1: There's some gamesmanship there and the Cardinals had this happened 344 00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 1: to them the first meeting against the forty nine ers. Five? 345 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 1: Is it going to be Garoppolo? Is it gonna be 346 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: Trey Lance? Friday afternoon. Oh yeah, Trey Lance is going 347 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 1: to start. I don't think Kingsbury is going to make 348 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: such an announcement either if it's Murray or Colt McCoy, 349 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: They're going to wait because you have to factor in travel. 350 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: Cardinals are getting on an airplane on Saturday. That means 351 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: something when you fly up thirty thirty five thousand feet 352 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: elevation three hours, right, and yeah, and then how do 353 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: you sleep Saturday night, wake up Sunday morning, go through 354 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: your normal pregame warm ups, and see how you feel 355 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: and if you feel comfortable, because this is all going 356 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,719 Speaker 1: to rely I think. On Kyler Murray. I know there 357 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: was some questions about, hey, can you be cautious, can 358 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 1: you look long term and say, hey, you know what, 359 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: you're feeling good, but we're gonna sit you this week 360 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: as a may as a means to make sure you're 361 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: completely one percent. Dallas Cowboys did that with Dak Prescott. 362 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: Now I don't know the status of Prescott versus of 363 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray this week, but that is an idea that 364 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: is out there. Kingsbury did acknowledge that it's probably not 365 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,719 Speaker 1: a great conversation to have with a Kyla Murray who 366 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: likes to be on the football field. But that is 367 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: something that I think will be considered. I think those 368 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 1: conversations took place last Friday to where, you know, how 369 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: is he feeling after the game, and then let him 370 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: get off in the weekend. I think now it's hey, 371 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 1: it's possible that he can play. I think Friday was 372 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 1: kind of glim just the way he walked off the field. 373 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: He's getting treatment, he's getting mental reps. It wouldn't surprise 374 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: me if he's out there on Friday just walk through, 375 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: you know, just watching things. And again, nothing against Colton McCoy, 376 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: but I am intrigued to see him play. It's just 377 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 1: eighty percent Kyla Murray is better than Colton McCoy. I'd 378 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 1: rather see Colton McCoy play fourth quarter up to three 379 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 1: four scores and let him see what he can do. 380 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 1: But again, it's a division game, and I don't think that. 381 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: Maybe it does factor a little bit because it is 382 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 1: division games, but you've got it such a large lead 383 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: in the division. I don't know everyone. I want to 384 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,199 Speaker 1: see Kyle the Murray play, but I don't want to 385 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: see him play at the expense of this costing him 386 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 1: next week, the week after, and all of a sudden 387 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: this lingers to where it's a month that you have 388 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: to worry about Kyle Murray. Well, I think you know 389 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years. We know last year 390 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:20,880 Speaker 1: the Cardinals got off to a two and oz start 391 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: to beat the Niners, and then they beat the Seahawks 392 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: and then they finished two and four. I think it's 393 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 1: important for Kingsbury to get a winning record in the 394 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: division this year, and it can come back to tiebreakers, 395 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: especially depending on how the Rams do, can come back 396 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,120 Speaker 1: to conference wins division wins. So it's just the next 397 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 1: game on the schedule. But I do think there's a 398 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 1: premium of taking care of business in your division. You 399 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: don't want to go two and four every year because 400 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 1: now you're trailing. That's four games that you lost in 401 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: your division, in the conference, and that put you behind 402 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 1: the eight ball. So I'm putting the premium on these 403 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 1: division games. Second straight season. The Cardinals have opened up 404 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 1: two and oz against the NFC West last year, obviously 405 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 1: losing four straight. But to your point, this is a 406 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: winnable ball game, even without a Kyle the Murray. But 407 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,679 Speaker 1: I hope we do see Kyle the Murray on the 408 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: football field. Now, some other questions and this didn't get 409 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 1: lost on Wednesday, but not really analyzed and discussed a lot. 410 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: But no DeAndre Hopkins, no AJ Green on the football 411 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: field during the open portion of practice. And we know 412 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 1: Hopkins is dealing with a hamstring injury. It kept him 413 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 1: off the field for much a Thursday's game against Green 414 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 1: Bay Packers. Kingsbury they thought, you know, opened the door 415 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: a little bit saying he's not sure if Hopkins is 416 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 1: going to be available this week. Now that's a little 417 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: bit more honesty than we've heard from Kingsbury when it 418 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: comes to Hopkins and his status. It is Wednesday. We'll 419 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 1: see how it trends towards Sunday. But we'll go back 420 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: to what we always say. Hop don't miss games. He's 421 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: only missed two in his career. But let's go back 422 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 1: to the Kyle the Murray thought process. It's okay to 423 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: miss one game, so you're not missing three, four, five 424 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: games over the next six seven weeks. And just like 425 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: any player in that locker room, there sounds like they're 426 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 1: gonna put the pads on Thursday, and you get a 427 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: certain amount of pads to a certain point in the season, 428 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: so they're gonna put the pads on. But once again, 429 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 1: hopefully hop was laying up get some rest. He's not 430 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: on the practice field, so you know, he's a guy 431 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: that really doesn't need to practice, so to speak. But 432 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully he's getting better. But I just think 433 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: the fact that they were off Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, 434 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 1: got back in the building on Tuesday, and then we're 435 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: you know, on the field on Wednesday. So you got 436 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: to think that rest is going to go a long 437 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: way until they get their official bye week, which will 438 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: be during the week of Thanksgiving. And you know how 439 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:50,479 Speaker 1: much of a factor Hopkins is just his presence on 440 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 1: the football field, because you have to account for him 441 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 1: even at less than one hundred percent. Let's go back 442 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: to that game against the Packers where he missed a 443 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 1: chunk of two quarters two full quarters as far as 444 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: time of action missed. But when he was out there, 445 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: even if he wasn't one hundred percent, all of a sudden, 446 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,359 Speaker 1: the defense shifts a little bit towards his direction and 447 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: you're able to look elsewhere if you're Kyle L. Murray. 448 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: So there is a nod to de hot plane even 449 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: if he's at fifty percent, because Hopkins at fifty percent 450 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: is better than maybe what ninety five percent of the 451 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: wide receivers at one hundred percent. Yeah, that was interesting 452 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: though when he wasn't out there, it didn't seem why 453 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: guys were getting as much separation. And again that's just 454 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 1: maybe overreacting. But when he's on the field and teams 455 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: initially were rolling coverage over, now you got so many weapons, 456 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,120 Speaker 1: you got the running backs he got, you know, obviously 457 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 1: Rondel Moore hopefully as a bounced by game, Christian Kirk, 458 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: and then zach Ertz. So yeah, again it was just 459 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: interesting that small sample. And then when he got back 460 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: in there, he put himself back in there, everything kind 461 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 1: of flowed down. Now he was on the fee for 462 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: that final play. Adre was on the right, Chase was 463 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,479 Speaker 1: in the backfield. He actually picked up a nice plitz 464 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 1: and then on the left that was Hurts Kirk and 465 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 1: hop so how and he did run the route, so 466 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 1: he was able to finish the game. Where to where 467 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: I just think he takes care of his body. He's 468 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: promoting this device where it's kind of like a drill 469 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: and it just really allows your body to recover faster. 470 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 1: It's like a massager, but it's portable. Him in DK 471 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 1: metcalf are promoting that and so all over the TV 472 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: and social media. So i hops a guy that eats right. 473 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: I'm sure he's got a chef and he takes care 474 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 1: of his body and that goes along. Week. We don't 475 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 1: see him him out in Scottsdale at night and stuff 476 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 1: like that. We'll keep an eye on Kyler Murray and 477 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: we'll keep an eye on DeAndre Hopkins. Now, there was 478 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: some good news, in fact, a lot of good news 479 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,719 Speaker 1: as far as Wednesday's practice Bird Gang, So it's not 480 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: like we're Debbie Downers here on Cardinals. Covered two presented 481 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 1: by a hunday probab partner of the Arizona Cardinals, Rodney Hudson, 482 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 1: who was designated to return from injured reserve on the 483 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: practice field on Wednesday, as was Max Garcia. So that 484 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 1: is very good with respect to the offensive line. If 485 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: Hudson gets activated, he's missed the past three weeks. You 486 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 1: plug him back at the center position and then we'll 487 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 1: see what happens at right guard. Does it remain Josh Jones, 488 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: is it Max Garcia. Who knows, but the fact that 489 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: it's Wednesday and Hudson and Garcia are practicing, that is 490 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 1: great news. In fact, heading towards this week's game, yeah, 491 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 1: we haven't heard anything, but just based on you know, 492 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 1: Coogler's comments when he spoke to the media, I want 493 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 1: to say last week he said Garcia is going to play, 494 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 1: and that told me that once Hudson comes back and 495 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 1: it gives Josh Jones a little bit of break where 496 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: you can use him as an extra blocker. I mean, 497 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 1: right now, you know you don't have a ton of 498 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 1: tight ends at block besides Darrell Daniels, Demetrius Harris more 499 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,639 Speaker 1: of a kind of a combo guy. We know that 500 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 1: Hurts has a high effort. He puts the effort into it. 501 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: Sometimes you're gonna lose those matchups. So I just may 502 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 1: be a good thing for Josh to take a stop 503 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 1: step back, and then we don't know about Justin Murray. 504 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's flip it over the defense. Zaven Collins. 505 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: During the open portion of practice, he did not play 506 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: a lot of the second half. He was injured in 507 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 1: the first half. Suffered a shoulder injury, and a lot 508 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: of people including teammates pointing to that loss as far 509 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: as affecting the run defense. But Zaven Collins on the 510 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 1: practice field on Wednesday with Chard Lawrence on the practice 511 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: field on Wednesday. He's missed the past two games with 512 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,679 Speaker 1: a calf injury, and good to see Corey Peters on 513 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,919 Speaker 1: the practice field. So that's two new bodies on the 514 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: defensive line. As we talk about J. J. Watt and 515 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: his absence, what happens? How do you replace that? While 516 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 1: you don't, but if you have Corey Peters available and 517 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: a healthy we Shard Lawrence. I like where that defensive 518 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: line stacks up against the rest of you know, offenses 519 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: the rest of the season. Yeah, Corey Peters, he's really 520 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: a really good run star first, so he can occupy 521 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: space there. You know, the fact is I really like 522 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: their rotation once you get Richard Lawrence back and Corey Peters, 523 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,199 Speaker 1: and we know Zach Allen's going to get a lot 524 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: more playing time kind of replacing JJ Watt. I think 525 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: you and I are big fans of Michael Dogby, like 526 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: he Foe two is getting better each week, and then 527 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: you got the wildcard and Josh Morrow. So again right now, 528 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 1: just two guys we'll be on IRE one. Max Williams 529 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: look gone for the year, and then JJ Watt. You know, 530 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 1: we'll see how long he's out. But you know that's 531 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: the beauty of this ir return within three weeks. Sometimes 532 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,199 Speaker 1: you have to put a guy on there and you 533 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: know that he's not going to come back. So right now, 534 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: the goodness only two guys out of the starting twenty two. 535 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,640 Speaker 1: You'd like to have that, you know, obviously better, but 536 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 1: that's the NFL. And as long as you don't lose 537 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: certain players at certain positions, I think because of the depth, 538 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 1: they'll be. Okay, things changed quickly, we understand that. But 539 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: here on a Wednesday, I feel a lot better about 540 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:03,439 Speaker 1: the defense considering the bodies that are back. Still a 541 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: little I don't know a little literally about DeAndre Hopkins, 542 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: just based off the tone of voice and the word 543 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 1: choice of a. Cliff Kingsbury. And I'm more optimistic about 544 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray based off what we heard from the man 545 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. Yeah, Cliff, Cliff made it sound like it'd 546 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:26,199 Speaker 1: be a tough conversation to ask Murray or say, you know, 547 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: it's in our best centrist organization. Team wise, you sit 548 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: you mentioned what that conversation would be, like, hop how 549 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: will just put himself in the game. Now he's got 550 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: to be active being the game, right, Yeah, that's those 551 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: guys are such competitors, man, Like you're taking the dog 552 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: bone away from these guys. Man, they want to they 553 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: want to eat. How do you tell a player that 554 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: they feel good? But hey, you know what in best 555 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 1: censors of the team, given another day, given another week, 556 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: it's it's it's done in other professions. Because you play 557 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: more games, it becomes a more difficult conversation. You only 558 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: have seventeen of these, and each game is so big, 559 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: and division games are magnified, and we're in November, and 560 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: that makes it even bigger. Spotlight on this contest. So yeah, 561 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: I it it'd be great to be a fly on 562 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: the walls. They like to say, if and win, those 563 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: conversations happen. But I do think that whether we know 564 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: or not, a decision will be made Friday on Kyler 565 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 1: Murray and DeAndre Hopkins. And then you don't think they'll 566 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: drag it two games. May say we might not know, 567 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: but I think yes, coaching staff players will know, Hey, 568 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray's gonna play. He's not gonna play you know what, 569 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 1: We're not gonna have DeAndre Hopkins. I mean, hey, it's 570 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: not going to become public knowledge, but we may see 571 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: hop out there on a Friday. It's it's happened before, Yeah, 572 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: I mean, if he's dealing with ankle injury and normally 573 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: when the players are on the field the color. He 574 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: wasn't on the field today, but he was in meetings, 575 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: he was getting treatment. So it's not like these guys 576 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: are sitting there watching movies and playing chess. I mean 577 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: they're getting in there around the clock treatment. So again, 578 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 1: I like you said, I just don't think Hopkins wants 579 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: MS games. I mean he's off to a good star 580 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: when it comes to touchdowns. He obviously he creates separation 581 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,479 Speaker 1: for the other players when he's on the field. And 582 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: once again, i'll take Hopkins at eight percent, then a 583 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: lot of different guys. Now, again, it's a long season. 584 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 1: You got to make sure that this doesn't linger. And 585 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: that's what I think the biggest issue for both of 586 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 1: those guys. Cardinals Covered two presented by Hunday probably partner 587 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 1: of the Arizona Cardinals. As we now kind of focus 588 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: on the matchups specifically here in Week nine, regardless if 589 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: it's Kyler Murray or Colt McCoy, As far as facing 590 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: a forty nine Ers defense that really did a number 591 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: on the Cardinals back in Week five, as far as 592 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: holding a high powered offense to just seventeen points. They 593 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: come in talking about the forty nine Ers with the 594 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: fifth best defense and number five and allowing just over 595 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: five yards a play. Not great against the run, but 596 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: number three against the past, and a lot of that 597 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 1: is because their defensive line and an Eric Armstead, a 598 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 1: DJ Jones, a Nick Bosa, a d Ford. The number 599 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: of guys that this forty nine Ers defensive line can play, 600 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: rotate and really get after opposing offenses getting into the 601 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: backfield and blowing up a play. Yeah, that's why I 602 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 1: think it's so important to get Rodney Hudson back, because 603 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: we know over the last couple of weeks precture has 604 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: been coming by the middle. Kylo's taking more hits, and 605 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 1: he probably did in the first six five or six games, 606 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: so and then Max Garcia, I mean, he's I just 607 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: if we were sitting here talking about Sean Harlowe and 608 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: Josh Jones, I would be concerned because they have a 609 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: really good front seven. They get to the quarterback. It 610 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 1: all starts with Bosa and in the interior, and then 611 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 1: Fred Warner's a guy that can, you know, really blow 612 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: up the running game by getting tackles at the line 613 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: of scrimmage. So I like the fact that they're getting 614 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: their starters back. And you know, again he did have 615 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 1: some depth now with usin Murray and Josh Jones, if 616 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: that happens to be the case, and I like that 617 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: where now Sean Harlow would be more of an eighth 618 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 1: guy versus being a starter. And he did a good job, 619 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: only one bad snap. And I give him credit because 620 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: you know, he's he played a ton in the preseason. 621 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: He got a chance to play left guard, he can 622 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 1: play right guard, and he really bailed his team out 623 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: considering you're going down to your third string center. Hudson's 624 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: return huge hopefully that does happen this week. You're right, 625 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: that is the word. It is huge, because not only 626 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: is it a show up the middle, but the rest 627 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: of the offense as well, and then being in a 628 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: second set eyes for the quarterback and we anticipate, hopefully 629 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: fingers crossed, that that is Kyle the Murray but Roden 630 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: Hudson has seen a lot and can point outs and 631 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, it just becomes a lot 632 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: more in rhythm, and we kind of haven't seen that 633 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 1: for large stretches of games, and maybe that was because 634 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: of Rodney Hudson not being out there. In his return 635 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: could be a godsend for the offense to kind of 636 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: get back to that feeling we had in the first 637 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: four or five games. Yeah, and he was dealing with ribs, 638 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: correct ribs and shoulders, shoulders, but he should have, you know, 639 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: fresh lakes because he hasn't you know, hasn't played You're 640 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: talking about sixty five snaps a game that's over, you know, 641 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty over a three game span. And 642 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 1: again he's getting treatment. I'm sure he's still able to 643 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: lift weights. But the good news he should have some 644 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: fresh lays because he hasn't played a full game in 645 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: almost three weeks, so that that can go a long 646 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: way with just endurance and making sure he's doing his job, 647 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: which we all know he's gonna do. And you look 648 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: at DJ Humphries, Calvin Beecham as far as the tackles 649 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: and making sure Nick Bosa stays quiet. Now, he did 650 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 1: have his sack and the first meeting in this season 651 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: seven sacks, fifteen quarterback hits, eleven tackles for loss. Nick 652 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: Bosa is every bit the player that the forty nine 653 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: ers went out and made a first round draft pick. 654 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:17,840 Speaker 1: On last week against the Bears, two sacks, three quarterback hits, 655 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 1: five pressures, three tackles for loss. So he is certainly 656 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: playing well and again healthy. That's always been the key 657 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 1: with not just Nick Bosa, but the entire Bosa family. Yeah, 658 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: I mean he's he's you know, they took him second overall, 659 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: Quentin Williams went third overall. He's he's living up to it. 660 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: He's just got to stay healthy, and you know that's 661 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: part of how he plays. I mean, he obviously decided 662 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 1: to tap out in college he was getting ready for 663 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: the draft. But when healthy, he's a very productive player 664 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: and one of the better pass rushers just the way 665 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 1: he takes his angles. And I think when you look 666 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 1: at the Bosa family, from the father to the brother Joey, 667 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,359 Speaker 1: they're really physical and they're really strong at the point 668 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 1: of attack. And d J. Humphries has held his own 669 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: against him. You look at where perhaps the weakness is 670 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 1: this forty nine Ers defense. And we mentioned that they're 671 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 1: very good against the past, but Emmanuel Mosley, Josh Norman, 672 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 1: Kwan Williams, those three were picked on last week against 673 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 1: the Bears, and safety Jimmy Ward is not expected to 674 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: play this week because of a quad strain, so that 675 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 1: hurts the secondary of the forty nine ers as well. 676 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: And it just seems that, yeah, they're number three against 677 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 1: the past, but I think that has more to do 678 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 1: with the front as opposed to the back end. And 679 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 1: we've talked about that there two are in sync. If 680 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: you can get to the quarterback and make them rush 681 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: their throws, then they're throwing in completions or interceptions. Yet 682 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers only have two interceptions this season. 683 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: Mosley last week allowed five catches on seven targets, with 684 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:59,800 Speaker 1: four going for first downs. Norman and Williams each allowed 685 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 1: war catches on five targets. So there is a way 686 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 1: to attack this forty nine Ers defense, and it is 687 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:10,840 Speaker 1: through the air, provided the quarterback has time in the pocket. Yeah, 688 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: but I also think you know the way that Chase 689 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 1: Edmonds is running, and hopefully you know those nine days 690 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: are going to help his shoulder. You don't want that aggravating. 691 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: But he's a tough guy who plays through it. And 692 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 1: the way James Connor's really played on a short yard situation. 693 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 1: So it's just not where the Cardinals are going to 694 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: line up and just throw the football. They're gonna try 695 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: to utilize the run and that will open up play 696 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 1: action where they can get their weapons involved. While you 697 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,840 Speaker 1: look at that first meeting as far as how the 698 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: Cardinals were able to do running the football against the 699 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 1: forty nine ers, and it was all right, it wasn't great. 700 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 1: In fact, it was Rondel Moore who had thirty eight 701 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: rushing yards to lead the team. James Connor, Chase Edmonds 702 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: kind of held in check each under three yards a carry. 703 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 1: But that might be something if you can get those 704 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: defensive linemen on their heels, puts back, it goes to 705 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,760 Speaker 1: the offensive line to do their job so the running 706 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 1: backs can do their job. Yeah, and you know we're 707 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: going to get talk to Vans Joseph tomorrow, so we'll 708 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: kind of figure that out. But you know, you look 709 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 1: at their running game and it doesn't matter who's back there, 710 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: they get the job done. And we'll get into that 711 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 1: more tomorrow, just how the Cardinals defense will approach the 712 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 1: Niners offense. But for the most part, you know, people 713 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: think they miss Robert sala. I just think they're going 714 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 1: through transition. De Meco Ryan's has been there. They were 715 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: excited to retain him. It's just the Niners. It's just 716 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: haven't been able to stay healthy and that's been the issue. 717 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 1: And again, you know the fact is that Cardinals will 718 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,680 Speaker 1: have plenty of time to prepare for a guy like 719 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo. And so we'll get into that tomorrow based 720 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 1: on Vans, Joseph and I want to go point to 721 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds because it's a good point that you make 722 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 1: as far as the ability to run against the forty 723 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 1: nine ers defense, and Edmonds hasn't had that quote unquote 724 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,760 Speaker 1: breakout game. Has been a lot of James Connor, certainly 725 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: in the red zone, short yardage and scoring touchdowns. Connor 726 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 1: has eight. Derrick Henry was leading the league with ten 727 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 1: at last check, but Edmonds this season is almost almost 728 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 1: at six yards a Kerry. Now, a lot of that 729 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,320 Speaker 1: has come in the second half with the league and 730 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 1: then you can start running. He did have that long 731 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 1: run of fifty four yards earlier in the year. But 732 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 1: we've kind of seen this offense attack defenses with the 733 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 1: air game and then rely on the ground game to 734 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 1: finish things off. And I don't know if that's gonna 735 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,240 Speaker 1: change this week. Maybe it does because Kyle the Murray, 736 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: because limited mobility. Perhaps maybe you do focus a little 737 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: bit more on Chase Edmonds and James Connor. Yeah, and 738 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: you know, I'm curious to see, you know, if they 739 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,439 Speaker 1: try to put a spy him. We know that doesn't work. 740 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 1: Maybe because of his mobility, they try to keep him 741 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: in the pocket, you know. But again, you know, Chase Edmonds, 742 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,759 Speaker 1: you start looking at his numbers, Craig, he has three 743 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy scrimmin chards. He's aeron ninety two point 744 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 1: five per game in four road games this year. So yeah, 745 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,399 Speaker 1: he may not be getting the you know, the short 746 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 1: yardist situations, and James Connor's obviously built for that. But um, 747 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,839 Speaker 1: he finally got his first touchdown. But he's been very 748 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: productive when it comes to all purpose yards, not just 749 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 1: to rushing, but also catching the ball the backfield. Yeah, 750 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,360 Speaker 1: certainly with the ability to catch the ball. He's third 751 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 1: and catches for two hundred and eleven yards, and that's 752 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 1: the middle of the pack as far as where the 753 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 1: receiving yards rank. But it's his ability to catch the 754 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: ball for short yardage two three yards and that's sometimes, 755 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 1: as you'd like to say, part of the run game anyway, 756 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,800 Speaker 1: if you're throwing the quick screen to a Connor on 757 00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 1: Edmonds or even Rondel Moore, who was a big factor 758 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 1: as he mentioned and that first meeting. As far as 759 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 1: running the football, yeah, and you look at Connor had 760 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 1: two rushing tds last week, his third game with two 761 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 1: rushing tds in twenty twenty one, leads the NFL. I'm 762 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:02,239 Speaker 1: scared lose. The leads the n with eight rushing touchdowns 763 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 1: and he had a rushing touchdown a week five against 764 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers. Looking back at that Week five contest, 765 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 1: the Cardinals scored on their first possession. It was a 766 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: great eight play sixty six yard drive set up by 767 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 1: Buddha Baker's interception. But then the offense went seven possessions 768 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:23,280 Speaker 1: before scoring another touchdown, and that was the DeAndre Hopkins 769 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 1: score in the fourth quarter that made its seventeen to seven. 770 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: So there was a Matt Prater field goal, there was 771 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds fumble, but that forty nine Ers defense. Yeah, 772 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,240 Speaker 1: the record says three and four. Yet for whatever reason, 773 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: this is always the team MJ that gives the Cardinals, 774 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: regardless of year, head coach roster, always problems and it 775 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 1: goes back to the Cardinals versus the Rams. Regardless of 776 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 1: head coach roster, that always seems to be the hurdle. 777 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: But for the Cardinals, there's been a nice give and 778 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 1: take with the forty nine Ers over recent years, but 779 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,800 Speaker 1: this week, the opportunity to sweep the season series for 780 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,359 Speaker 1: the first time since twenty eighteen. Yeah, I just think 781 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,839 Speaker 1: it's the familiarity. I mean, when you have the same 782 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:11,399 Speaker 1: head coaches. With McVeagh, he's been there, you know, since 783 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 1: Clifs has been here. We know Pete Carrol's been there 784 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 1: a long time and Kyle Shannah and so I don't 785 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 1: think they're going to surprise each other. And when you're 786 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 1: playing a division game, I think go back to what 787 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,919 Speaker 1: you were able to do. And you know, I think 788 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 1: Cardinal fans have been spoiled just like we have when 789 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 1: they're putting up for thirty points in four hundred yards 790 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 1: in the game. Granted what they did that the Rams 791 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: was really impressive because it was a beatdown. Now, they're 792 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: not going to always win in division games, and this 793 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,239 Speaker 1: was seventeen to ten, and they found different ways to 794 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 1: win in that game. And that's part of being a 795 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,880 Speaker 1: good team, learning how to win and finishing games. And 796 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 1: they did that when they won seventeen ten. So I'm 797 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 1: not antice in a blowout here now. Obviously, turnovers and 798 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,200 Speaker 1: you know, other factors will play a role, but anytime 799 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: you're playing a division game, it's usually more closer to 800 00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 1: the best because they know each other. Cardinals five and 801 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 1: two at Levi's Stadium since that building opened up in 802 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, which just happened to be the year after 803 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 1: cult McCoy spent a season with the forty nine ers 804 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 1: in twenty thirteen. If you're looking for a connection or 805 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 1: perhaps Culte McCoy and his familiarity with the forty nine hours, 806 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 1: well you're talking twenty thirteen, so probably not a whole lot. 807 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting. If the Cardinals win, they would 808 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 1: improve to eleven and three in their last fourteen games 809 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 1: against the forty nurs. It doesn't seem like that. I 810 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 1: know Rosen won both of those games, and yeah, obviously 811 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 1: beat the Packers that year, collar last year Week one, 812 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:40,399 Speaker 1: but I would have thought it had been a little 813 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 1: bit more even it's I think the recency bias because 814 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:47,280 Speaker 1: for me, Week sixteen sticks out like a sore thumb 815 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 1: in front of almost empty stadium in Glendale State Farm Stadium, 816 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 1: and the fact that the forty nine Ers just ran 817 00:42:55,960 --> 00:43:00,080 Speaker 1: right through, literally through the Cardinals, and according to Statwoods 818 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,840 Speaker 1: Mike Helm, it would earn the fifth season sweep against 819 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:04,879 Speaker 1: the nine Ers in the last seven seasons. And here's 820 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 1: a team they went to the Super Bowl not too 821 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 1: long ago. In fact, Cliff Kingsbury has a better winning 822 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 1: percentage than Kyle Shanahan, which gets lost in a lot 823 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:13,880 Speaker 1: of the narrative when you talk about the forty nine 824 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 1: Ers because of their run to the Super Bowl didn't 825 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:20,359 Speaker 1: quite finish the job. But on a consistency basis, it's 826 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 1: been coach Kingsbury better than coach Shanahan. And we always 827 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 1: talk about you know, this year eight home games, nine 828 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 1: road games. If you can just scratch out a few 829 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,719 Speaker 1: road games, this team already has four road wins. I mean, 830 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:34,799 Speaker 1: that doesn't happen. You look at the standings, you'll see 831 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:38,360 Speaker 1: a team that you know play and I looked it up, Craig. 832 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: Home field advantage is not what it used to be. 833 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,359 Speaker 1: Even with fans. This year it's very close. I mean 834 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:47,239 Speaker 1: it's like sixty three to fifty nine. It's been interesting 835 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,840 Speaker 1: because after a year in which you thought no fans 836 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,320 Speaker 1: in the stands would even the playing field, it's actually 837 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 1: been this season in which the playing field has been 838 00:43:56,040 --> 00:44:00,279 Speaker 1: more even. And usually, you know, you want to you know, 839 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 1: if you got eight home games, you probably want to 840 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 1: win six and obviously they lost one so far, but 841 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,360 Speaker 1: you know, and then you scratch out, you know, with 842 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:09,360 Speaker 1: nine road games you want to get you know, I 843 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:11,760 Speaker 1: would have set outside up for four or five. They 844 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,320 Speaker 1: have an opportunity to get their fifth road win, which 845 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 1: is almost unheard of when you look at the I 846 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 1: have to look around the league because road teams are winning. 847 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:23,759 Speaker 1: So I'm not saying they're the only ones doing that, 848 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,280 Speaker 1: but it's just fascinating. You would think home field advantage 849 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 1: would definitely have a role. You're not traveling. You're like, 850 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 1: you know, you're staying in your hotel all the you know, 851 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 1: the side distractions that happened, that's why you got to 852 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,840 Speaker 1: give credits to the Packers. They came here, you know 853 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 1: probably well, I know they left that on Wednesday and 854 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 1: they got here. But yeah, it's just I'm really impressed. 855 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 1: And it all started in Week one when they thumped 856 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans, and then you know, obviously in Minnesota 857 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 1: they caught a break there and then you know, going 858 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville. So the good news is they they've taken 859 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:02,239 Speaker 1: care of business against the teams. A fifth road win 860 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:07,240 Speaker 1: would mark just the ninth time in franchise restry five 861 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: or more road wins in a season, and the first 862 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 1: time since twenty fifteen. That year they won seven road games. Yeah, 863 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,319 Speaker 1: that was a big season for the Arizona Cardinals. We'll 864 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 1: see what happens coming up this week again. Two twenty 865 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:25,400 Speaker 1: five is the kickoff nine thirty am.

It's a look back at 873 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,960 Speaker 1: the stadium vote and how much Aeneas Williams's record time 874 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 1: fumble return to upset Washington just two days earlier may 875 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 1: have played a factory in the vote passing. I think 876 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 1: it was a huge factor. But that episode of Cardinals 877 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 1: Folk Tales debuts on Wednesday, and go to YouTube dot 878 00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 1: com slash as Cardinals for all Cardinals folk tales and 879 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:13,720 Speaker 1: original audio podcasts are available by searching Cardinals Folk Tales 880 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 1: at your favorite podcast provider.
