Here's Craiggriolu, Paul Calvic and 15 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: two time pro bowler Lorenzo Alexander. 16 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 4: It's not the start, it's the finish, and the Cardinals 17 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 4: are learning that lesson the hard way through the first 18 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 4: two games, leading twenty to nothing at halftime, eight to seven, 19 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 4: with nine to thirty four to go in the third quarter. 20 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 4: And here we are forty eight hours later talking about 21 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 4: a thirty one twenty eight loss to the New York Giants. 22 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,399 Speaker 4: And yes, the Cardinals are zero and two. Zoe Paul 23 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 4: and I tried to explain the difference between the first 24 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 4: half and second half on Monday's Cardinals Cover two. We 25 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 4: could not quite come up with an answer, so we 26 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 4: bring you here on Tuesday on the Cardinals Reds Report 27 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 4: before your expert's opinion on what happened between the first 28 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 4: thirty minutes and the second thirty minutes. 29 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, I wish it was some you know, magical answer 30 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 6: that you could have or you know, some of this 31 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 6: fancy analytical stuff that nobody can see. But it goes 32 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 6: to the old adage or you know cliche. You know, 33 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 6: start fast, finished strong, and that and that, and that 34 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 6: really means something I think in the last couple of weeks, 35 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 6: just not being able to finish strong and that's not 36 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 6: necessarily Physicality is about execution, right, And when you look 37 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 6: at the from a defensive perspective, the tail of two 38 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 6: halves is the first half really didn't see any explosion plays, 39 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 6: and then in the second half you see three or 40 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 6: four big bombs down the field. Almost had that one 41 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 6: on the sideline that would have been in probably another 42 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 6: touchdown that thirteen dropped, and then we saw Daniel Jones 43 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 6: get out and be able to scramble and create, and 44 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 6: you cannot win on defense with those type of explosion plays. 45 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 6: I don't care who you are, Dallas Cowboys, the Jets, 46 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 6: it doesn't matter. And so when you have a team 47 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 6: that's not at that caliber, you have to make sure 48 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 6: that you are on your p's and q's and dott 49 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 6: in your eyes and plant everything correctly. And this wasn't 50 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,519 Speaker 6: a surprise to me because when I went back and 51 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 6: watched the Washington film, we saw some of their receivers 52 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 6: running free. Samhowe just didn't see him, didn't couldn't get 53 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,119 Speaker 6: in the ball. And this week Daniel Jones was able 54 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 6: to take advantage of it. Of some of the miscommunications, 55 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 6: some of it looked like alignment errors. And when you're 56 00:02:55,880 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 6: you know, fighting, you know and scratching, you can not 57 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 6: have those mental mistakes that put you out of position 58 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 6: of not being able to make a play. And ultimately 59 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 6: that's what led to demise and obviously the offense not 60 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 6: being able to be consistently scoring and keeping up with 61 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 6: that and name to keep that lead. 62 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 7: In week one, you had six sacks and about six 63 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 7: hundred pressures on Sam Howell, right, so you got to 64 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 7: the quarterback quite a bit. And whereas in this one, 65 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 7: especially in the second half of least to me watching it, 66 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 7: you were so depleted on the defensive line. Jonathan led Better, 67 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 7: Kevin Strong, Right, those guys got gas, especially in the 68 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 7: fourth quarter, played way too many snaps, at least more 69 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 7: than was forecast. Jonathan Gannon talked about that. We did 70 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 7: his TV show this week. He mentioned the explosive the 71 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 7: chunk plays right, all right, so did one beget the other? 72 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 7: No pressure on Daniel Jones him getting out. Then again, 73 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 7: to your point, we talked about it going into Sam 74 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,119 Speaker 7: Howell had one career start going into that game, and 75 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 7: you're going against the gauntlet that included Daniel Jones. Now 76 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 7: you get Dak Prescott, you get Brock Purty, Joe Burrow, 77 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 7: Matthew Stafford, Gino Smith, Lamar, Jacks Watson. There's a lot 78 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 7: of Pro Bowls. There was a lot of highly paid 79 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 7: quarterbacks in that group. 80 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I think part of the issue was 81 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 6: a lot of the stuff was off of play action. 82 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 6: I mean, you're not gonna get a a lot of 83 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 6: pressure off of play action. You know, first down, they 84 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 6: come out of halftime and take a shot. I mean, 85 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 6: you're not thinking that, you know, as a defense, and 86 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 6: necessarily you're thinking about, Okay, I'm about to play this 87 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 6: run and so and I think on that just kind 88 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 6: of rewinded in my mind. Even Zaven kind of came 89 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 6: down thinking that was gonna be some type of run play. 90 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 6: They weren't really in pass mode up front, and that 91 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 6: was just a big chunk they took off and it 92 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 6: looked like it was some type of miscommunication, whether the 93 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 6: corner didn't read it right or he thought a safety 94 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 6: was going to be deeperformed. They didn't play it right 95 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 6: and they take a shot. And so once that happens, 96 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 6: now you're playing catch up, I think at that point. 97 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 6: And then they were able to run the ball a 98 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 6: little bit with Sa Kwan. They had a lot of 99 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 6: zone reads where the linebacker's coming out and dinking it, 100 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 6: dinking it, and here comes another shot behind it. And 101 00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,559 Speaker 6: so they never could get in a really good rhythm 102 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,679 Speaker 6: where they had at them third and twelve. I'm pinning 103 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 6: my ears back and I really know what's coming on. 104 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 6: And to your point, they did wear out those ends. 105 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 6: I mean, the Giants offensive line was physical. They was 106 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 6: knocking the tackles back in the run game, and really 107 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 6: playing some physical caliber football, and I think it did 108 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 6: wear on them by the end of the game. 109 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 4: Total yards doesn't always tell the story, but it did 110 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 4: tell the story of this game. In the first half, 111 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 4: Cardinals outgained the Giants two hundred and forty one to 112 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 4: eighty one, and there you have that twenty point lead 113 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 4: second half, Giants three hundred and fifty eight yards in 114 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 4: the second half alone, Cardinals just one hundred and thirty 115 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 4: eight and the Cardinals that get out scored thirty one 116 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 4: to eight on the scoreboard. Jonathan Gannon on what he 117 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 4: saw in those. 118 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 8: Two halves tailor two halves, and we got to coach 119 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 8: and play better. You know, in the second half we 120 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 8: had a lead and we lost the lead and didn't 121 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 8: do enough to win the game. All three phases goes 122 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 8: into that, and complomary football goes into that, and our guys, 123 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 8: know what, we got to get done and improve that 124 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 8: quick if we think we're going to close out Lee's 125 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 8: and get some wins here. 126 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 4: Even how that third quarter started, Paul the long pass 127 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 4: play to Hiatt and the touchdown, the Cardinals responded on offense, 128 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 4: and it just was after that. Five minutes into the 129 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 4: third quarter, there was no more response from the offense 130 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 4: or the defense. 131 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 7: So they come out they had the big fifty eight 132 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 7: yard Did they score in three plays? And I'll admit, yeah, 133 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 7: my boxes start to bunge a little bit. But the 134 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 7: Cardinals answer, they go down the field, right, they formulate 135 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,239 Speaker 7: that touchdown drive, and you're like, all right, they answered 136 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 7: twenty eight to seven. There might have been a little 137 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 7: lull coming out of the locker room, but they know 138 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 7: next three possessions they netted twenty nine yards on offense 139 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 7: the Cardinals. I firmly think the Giants not only did 140 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 7: they probably just get screamed at by Dable at halftime, 141 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 7: but I think midway through the third quarter, at twenty 142 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 7: eight seven, they realized, oh my goodness, we're on one, 143 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 7: we're looking at zero and two, and we've got a 144 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 7: Thursday night game at Sam Francisco. We're looking at zho 145 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 7: and three if we don't pick it up right now. 146 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 7: So whereas the Cardinals intensity may have wayne maybe in 147 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 7: the second half, I just think the Giants ratcheted up 148 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 7: the urgency that much more and then combined with everything 149 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 7: that Zoe just explained, the x's and o's, and you're right. 150 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 7: The analytics say that almost all those chunk plays came 151 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 7: on play action, right, really effective. Cardinals did not have 152 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 7: an answer for that. 153 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 6: Right, And it's really hard to get pressure off with it. 154 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 6: And I would say the Cardinals offense, I mean, they 155 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 6: came out physical James Connor in the second half when 156 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 6: they pounded that ball all the way down. 157 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 5: It was a physical series. 158 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 6: And then they got away from that a little bit 159 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 6: with some negative plays, some pre snat penalties, things that 160 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 6: put them behind the sticks where they had opportunities to 161 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 6: maybe convert on a third and five and six and 162 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 6: it ended up being third and fifteen, third and sixteen, 163 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 6: and again, when you're when you're just trying to figure 164 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 6: out who you are, maybe you're not as talented as 165 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 6: you would like to be. You cannot beat yourself in 166 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 6: this league because it's already hard enough to win. 167 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 4: Cardinals played behind the sticks a lot in that second half. 168 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 4: In fact, of the ten third down opportunities the Cardinals 169 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 4: had in that game, five of them so or third 170 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 4: and ten or more. And that's been an issue the 171 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 4: past two weeks. This Cardinals team is one of eleven 172 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 4: on third and ten or more. That's not doable for 173 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 4: any offense. 174 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 5: No, but that's about what the statistics say. 175 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 6: Maybe you convert maybe one or two extra more if 176 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 6: you have Pat Mahomes or somebody like that back there quarterback. 177 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 6: And that's why you first and second down are so important. 178 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 6: If you want to be able to win games, if 179 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 6: you want to be able to extend drives, you have 180 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 6: to play smart football. Obviously running the ball like they 181 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 6: did in that one drive, staying ahead, and then not 182 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 6: beat yourself up by jumping off sides and then knocking 183 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 6: taking that stuff back. And so that's where it comes 184 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 6: down to because some of this stuff is just them 185 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 6: inflicting self wounds and it's hard to get off the field. 186 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 6: You don't have most ohcs don't have a play for 187 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 6: third and twelve or third and fifteen. It's gonna be 188 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 6: draw screen. The defense is gonna make you check it down. 189 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 6: They're gonna come and tackle, and so you have to 190 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,839 Speaker 6: be disciplined and it has to be consistently throughout four 191 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 6: quarters as well. 192 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 4: You brought up James Connor earlier in your discussion about 193 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 4: what the offense was doing well in the first half. 194 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 4: Connor had fifty rushing yards on that scoring drive in 195 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 4: the third quarter, he had fifty three rushing yards finished 196 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 4: with a buck six. Not quite good enough. James Connor 197 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 4: on what wasn't going right in the second half on Sunday. 198 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 9: Just execution, you know, Olon, send the tone ones up front, 199 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 9: you know, and that's just executing. You know, That's why 200 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 9: it's a sixty minute ball game. You know, it doesn't 201 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 9: matter what happens in the first half or the first 202 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 9: three quarters. So even the fourth quarter, you know, until 203 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 9: the clock says zero, you you got to give it 204 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 9: everything you got. 205 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 3: And you know they all played us today. 206 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 4: Execution and not hurting yourself, Paul, because again you go 207 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 4: back to the penalties and the number of false starts 208 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 4: and playing behind the sticks, and that's what the Cardinals 209 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 4: were looking at in the second half. 210 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, you ask yourself, how why what happened to the 211 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 7: Cardinals offense? You mentioned that on the touchdown drive in 212 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 7: the second half to make it twenty eight seven. They 213 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 7: went eight play seventy five yards. Fifty three of those 214 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 7: were rushing yards by James Connor on five carries, and 215 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 7: then his final five carries basically went nowhere, netted nothing, 216 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 7: and from the sideline just and I noticed this in 217 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 7: the fourth quarter. I said, you know what, they've gone 218 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 7: from that too high safety. Look at Washington Use and 219 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 7: now it's one high safety and they put an extra 220 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 7: man in the box. So, Zoe, you tell me, in 221 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 7: an ideal world, how should the Cardinals have made them pay? 222 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 7: Obviously they didn't. What should have been the strategy once 223 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 7: you see it's a single high and that extra guy's 224 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:33,199 Speaker 7: in the box. 225 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, some play action and they did some of that stuff. 226 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 6: I mean, they had a nice play action boot like 227 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 6: tight end screen the ERTZ. I mean in the second 228 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 6: half they were trying to do it. But what happened 229 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 6: was they couldn't consistently keep a drive together in order 230 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 6: to finish it off and create some points. It was 231 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 6: either the penalty, somebody holding, somebody jumping off sides that 232 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 6: at some point stalled that drive out. 233 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 5: And that's why. 234 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 6: Most defenses, you defending every blade of grass knowing that 235 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 6: most offenses, most teams aren't disciplined enough to put a 236 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 6: ten and twelve play drive together, and so if you 237 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 6: can keep things in front of you don't have those 238 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 6: explosion plays. Most people end up biting themselves, are hurting 239 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 6: themselves at some point throughout that drive. And I would 240 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 6: also say you mentioned this about the Giants collectively coming 241 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 6: out with a different mindset. Once Connor went down and 242 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 6: drove the ball down their throats, that defense took that 243 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 6: safety out, came down and they were some guys hunting 244 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 6: up trying to find Connors that all calls and hit 245 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,439 Speaker 6: him before he got to the line of scrimmage, and 246 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,479 Speaker 6: they really made a shift say okay, Dobbs, you're gonna. 247 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 4: Have to beat us, and he was not able to 248 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 4: do it. For the second straight week. Again, the Cardinals 249 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 4: go into that fourth quarter with the lead and cough 250 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 4: up that lead for the second straight week. You bring 251 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 4: up Joshua Dobbs two hundred and twenty eight yards through 252 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 4: the air twenty one to thirty one. Pretty good, But 253 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 4: again on the wrong end of that outcome here is 254 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 4: the Cardinals starting quarterback. 255 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 10: Every lost stinks, quite frankly, obviously. You know, when you're 256 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 10: up and you feel like you have the game and 257 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 10: control and they come back, that's tough. But no matter 258 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 10: how you cut it, like a lost lost things you 259 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 10: put it, We put it in a lot of time, 260 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 10: effort throughout the week and our preparation getting ready for Sundays, mental, physical, 261 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 10: everything right, And so when you come out, you know, 262 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 10: you play well, but you feel like you should have won, 263 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 10: and you don't win, you know, it never feels good. 264 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 4: Go back to how I started this show though, and 265 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 4: that's again not finishing the Cardinals in the fourth quarter 266 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 4: now of two games, outscore twenty seven to nothing. Now, 267 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 4: whether that is talent the other team mistakes, that's just 268 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 4: not winning football. To borrow a phrase from Jonathan Gannon. 269 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 6: Right, yeah, I mean it, it's hard to win this league. 270 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 6: And so again it comes back to discipline, execution, real 271 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 6: simple terms. 272 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 3: Right. 273 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 6: There's no magical thing that they're going to go in 274 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 6: and do this week. Just all about every man being disciplined, 275 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 6: locking in and doing your job every single play. If 276 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 6: you just do that the bare minimum. And this is 277 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 6: why people always look up and say, man, how does 278 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 6: a guy like Dennis guard Deck play for so long 279 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,680 Speaker 6: and he's undrafted. He does his job and plays hard 280 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 6: every single play. If you if you could put that 281 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 6: in a bottle, right and get that to everybody and 282 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,959 Speaker 6: have them drink that Dennis guard Deck juice, right, you 283 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 6: would win a ton of football games. And that and 284 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 6: that's why coaches harp so much on culture, discipline, accountability 285 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 6: because they understand that is the key that opens up 286 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 6: the door to a lot of wins, right, and then 287 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 6: talent supercharges that and takes you to another level and 288 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 6: makes you a perennial playoff team and hopeful. 289 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 5: Super Bowl hopeful. 290 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 6: But at the foundation, you have to be accountable, You 291 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 6: have to be disciplined, you have to execute underpressure, and 292 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 6: you have to play this game hard, and you have 293 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 6: to do it for four quarters regardless of what the 294 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 6: scoreboard looks like. 295 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 7: Back after the game, I asked Jonathan Gannon postgame radio interview, 296 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 7: was there a lesson learned for the rookies, the young guys? 297 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 7: And then after the game, you you heard Kaizer White, 298 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 7: you heard Jalen Thompson, victor d Mukage all say one 299 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,839 Speaker 7: way or the other, either we took our foot off 300 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 7: the gas or there was a letdown. Look, just because 301 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 7: you're close on the scoreboard does not mean you're close 302 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 7: to being a winning team in the win loss standings. 303 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,839 Speaker 7: Houston Texans played a ton of close games, one score 304 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 7: games last year. They won one and lost like ten 305 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 7: of them. So you got to figure out the way 306 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 7: to win the close games. That's life in the NFL. 307 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 4: Cardinals zero two two losses by combined seven points as 308 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 4: they are now staring at the Dallas Cowboys coming up 309 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 4: on Sunday. We'll get into the Dallas matchup a little 310 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 4: bit later on, but first things first, the defense not 311 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 4: only on the field a lot, but losing players left 312 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 4: and right. We'll get to that next year. On the 313 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 4: Arizona Cardinals Radio. 314 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: Network, five sets deep drop Jones steps up, runs and 315 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 2: sacked at the forty three tennis gardeck Well the most 316 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 2: improved players in the NFL the last few years, this 317 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 2: guy continues to make plays. 318 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 3: Dennis ar that simply real knock. 319 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: Stop shotgun staff to Daniel Jones restep drop fires near 320 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 2: side and. 321 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 4: Picked off by Dalon Thompson at the forties. 322 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 2: Punning back the other way at the fifty at the 323 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 2: forty yard line at the thirty and out of bound. 324 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 2: Another takeaway for the Cardinal defense. Jones has the ball 325 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 2: short set in trouble, steps up and takes a sack 326 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 2: at the forty yard line. Save in Collins with the takedown. 327 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 4: Three sacks, one takeaway. Cardinals defense did that millionly in 328 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 4: the first half, though there was that Kaiser White sack 329 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 4: in the third quarter that was kind of overshadowed by 330 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 4: the Dante Stills unnecessary roughness call on that play on 331 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 4: that drive. So yeah, Cardinals defense did enough, just did 332 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 4: not get that extra stop another stop in the second half, 333 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 4: and the Cardinals lose to the Giants on Sunday thirty 334 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 4: one to twenty eight. So we continue here on the 335 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 4: Cardinals Red Sea Report presented by a SeatGeek your ticket 336 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 4: to Great Seats Craig Riallu friends with Alexander and Paul 337 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 4: Calvic putting the spotlight. Zoe on the defense said what 338 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 4: we've seen through two games Cardinals plus two in the 339 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 4: turnover margin, yeh oh, and two on the scoreboard. But 340 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 4: the defense is doing just enough and continues to play 341 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 4: with some physicality that certainly was not always there in 342 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 4: years past. 343 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I like it. I like the front seven. 344 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 6: I like Zion White upfront, the way he's been running 345 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 6: around hitting cats. I thought the DB's played really physical 346 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 6: in that first game. Xavin as well. Dennis guard deck 347 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 6: is I know, I know it said the most improved player, 348 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 6: you know, kind of in our in our re entry 349 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 6: to the show. But he's just getting an opportunity. Finally, 350 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 6: you know, to be out there every single snap, doesn't 351 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 6: have to worry about special teams. I was talking to 352 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 6: him a little bit last week. He was like, man Zo, 353 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 6: I just feel a little awkward because I don't have 354 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 6: to worry about all the teams, right, because that's how 355 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 6: we came into the league. And so he feels that 356 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 6: he's kind of leaving something on the table, but it's 357 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 6: allowing him to go out there, fly around with that 358 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 6: same mentality and just hit guys, whether he's getting sacks, 359 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 6: whether he's pushing Xavin over to get to the ball. 360 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 6: You just love that energy and you have to play 361 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 6: up to a guy standard like that, and he's one 362 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 6: of the bell cats that I really love seeing out 363 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 6: there fly around. They just have to figure out a 364 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 6: way to prevent chunk plays that's going to allow them 365 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 6: to stay in the game. Keep the ball in front 366 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 6: of him, and if there is one, you got to 367 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 6: go up there and compete for the ball. I think 368 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 6: that was maybe one of the areas where I didn't 369 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 6: like as much as a guy was going up you 370 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 6: got to compete for the ball and take guys to 371 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 6: the ground and try to jar that thing out at 372 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 6: the and finished plays off, and that's probably one area 373 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 6: where they can really work, as well as getting some 374 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 6: additional turnovers because the way this team's playing is just 375 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 6: not explosive enough. So you got to give your offense 376 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 6: more opportunities. 377 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 7: And we talk about where the Giants had success, especially 378 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 7: in that second half the play action. Obviously they also 379 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 7: seem to target Marco Wilson. Yeah, they didn't as day 380 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 7: to go after number twenty. And so I wonder, now, 381 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,199 Speaker 7: especially Jalen Thompson is your best nickel guy, but you 382 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 7: don't have Buddha Baker for the next four weeks, how 383 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 7: does that shuffle in as maybe Antonio Hamilton come into 384 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 7: the nickel, Maybe Antonio Hamilton sees a little bit of 385 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 7: time outside. I don't know. I'm really curious if there 386 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 7: are personnel changes or adjustments and coverages based on the 387 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 7: first two weeks. 388 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,679 Speaker 4: But first, or I should say, on Sunday there was 389 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 4: a lot of five dB looks and whether that was 390 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 4: that was actually mainly two corners with three safeties. But 391 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 4: now all of a sudden, you're down to safety in 392 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 4: Buddha Baker. What do you do if you're a defensive 393 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 4: Cord to Nick Rowlis, speaking by the way of Buddha Baker, 394 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 4: we knew that he was hurt. That happened on Friday, 395 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 4: hurt his hamstring, inactive for the game on Sunday, so 396 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 4: you knew it was serious, and then it became real 397 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 4: serious on Monday one. Baker was placed on andreed reserve. 398 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 4: Here's the head coach, Jonathan Gannon. 399 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 8: He's gonna me some time, but he'll be back, so 400 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 8: put him on IR today. But he'll get ready to 401 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 8: go here pretty soon and be ready to roll. 402 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 4: So not season ending, that's the good news. But he 403 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 4: is going to miss the next four games, so this 404 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 4: past Sunday does not count as far as one of 405 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 4: the four that he misses. 406 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 7: Here's my question, how much do you think they missed 407 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 7: Buddha Baker in that second half? Lorenzo Alexander I put 408 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 7: it to you, is the outcome different if Buddha Baker 409 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 7: is on that field. Did he use Buddha Baker as 410 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 7: a spy at times on Daniel Jones when he got 411 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 7: his own run game going? Is he able to bring 412 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 7: down Saquon Barkley whereas Saquon Barklay and a couple of 413 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 7: those key big runs in the fourth quarter was breaking 414 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 7: arm tackles. Is it different with Buddha out there. 415 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 6: I think it's different from the standard. Right, he's a playmaker, 416 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 6: but more so he's a leader of men, and so 417 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 6: I think he's able to get guys refocused in galvanized 418 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 6: and locked back in at the job at hand. And 419 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 6: I don't know which play would have made, but he 420 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 6: would have made some plays, especially on the back end 421 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 6: when you think about communication and making sure guy are 422 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 6: on the same page. A lot of times that falls 423 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 6: on the safety to make sure the calls is echoed, 424 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 6: everybody's on the same page, and if they did have 425 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 6: some mishaps, you go to the sideline. He's a leader 426 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 6: to a what's the issue, Let's get this thing straightened out. 427 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 6: So maybe instead of three or four big plays, you 428 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 6: only have one big play. And that's the little things 429 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 6: that you miss outside of the playmaking ability of Buddha 430 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 6: Baker that this team is going to miss out on, Well. 431 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 4: You're going to miss him for the next four weeks 432 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 4: and again five total games. The Cardinals will not play 433 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 4: with Buddha Baker this season at least five games. Buddha 434 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 4: Baker's only missed five games in his first six seasons 435 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 4: of his career, So boy, this is a big time 436 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 4: loss for the Cardinals, not only the defense but the 437 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 4: team overall. More from Gannon on what you do without 438 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 4: number three on the field. 439 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 3: We all got to rally around. 440 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 8: You're never going to replace a Buddha Baker, but we 441 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 8: got guys that we feel comfortable getting the job done 442 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 8: playing winning football for us. So you know, everyone's just 443 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,439 Speaker 8: got to do their job and we'll be okay. 444 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 4: Cardinals did fill Baker his roster spot with quantres Knight 445 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,639 Speaker 4: signed off the forty nine ers practice squad. Spent his 446 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,120 Speaker 4: rookie season a year ago on the forty nine ers 447 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 4: practice squad. Good size, six feet, undrafted free agent out 448 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 4: of UCLA, so he comes in. But to make matters 449 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 4: worst Paul is not only are you out with Buddha Baker, 450 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 4: but LJ. Collier on IR don't know about Carlos Watkins. 451 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 4: He himself is dealing with a biceps injury. Like I 452 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:27,959 Speaker 4: Fotwo did not play on Sunday. You had four defensive 453 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 4: starters from Week one that missed Week two. 454 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 7: Your most important player, maybe on either side of the ball, 455 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 7: was out in Buddha Baker and then your thinnest position 456 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 7: room d line was hit the hardest. So it was 457 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 7: a bad combination, there's no doubt. And over the years, 458 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 7: the few times a Buddha Baker has not been on 459 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 7: the field, the outcome has not been kind to the 460 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 7: Arizona Cardinals. Right, So it just dosn't looked the same. 461 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 7: It's I would equate it to like a couple of 462 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 7: years ago with Rodney Hudson and without Rodney Hudson. I'm 463 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 7: not sure I could have exactly explained, but just to 464 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 7: before and after just the eyeball test, the offense looked 465 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 7: totally different with and without Rodney Hudson. It's the same 466 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 7: to me on defense minus Budda Baker. 467 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,239 Speaker 6: Right, because Rodney Hudson was calling out the mic and 468 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 6: setting the protections and doing a lot of that mental 469 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 6: work before the snap even occurred to make sure that 470 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 6: everybody was on the same page. And that's what Buddha 471 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 6: Baker and the safeties typically do. And so they're gonna 472 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 6: have to put some extra time in this week, right 473 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 6: the standard you know whatever, six to three, I don't 474 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 6: know what time they leave here. Normally they're gonna have 475 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 6: to put some additional time together watching film this week, 476 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 6: the whole entire back end. First of all, it's already 477 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 6: been an issue in the first two games as far 478 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 6: as receivers running free, or people not be on the 479 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 6: same page, as far as my leverage who has him, 480 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 6: And so just to clean that up right takes additional 481 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:51,919 Speaker 6: work because something is going on in the course of 482 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 6: a game that just the starters weren't even getting. And 483 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 6: now you're inserting some guys that with less playing time, 484 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 6: may be unfamiliar with the system and the players here, 485 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 6: and so you need to meet come in early, stay 486 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 6: a little bit later, stay on the field, get a 487 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 6: couple of practice squad guys. These are the routes they 488 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 6: like to run. This is the check I'm gonna give you. 489 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 6: I'm gonna give you this look right. This is what 490 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 6: Hall of Fame caliber players do when you want to 491 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 6: be great, And so these guys need to be able 492 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 6: to do this stuff too. When you're coming in, you 493 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 6: have to put in the additional work in order to 494 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,239 Speaker 6: give yourself a chance to win, especially when it's been 495 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 6: a problem. So these guys need to be putting in 496 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 6: the extra work watching film together, and then on the 497 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 6: field and communicating over communicating, because that's that's typically what 498 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 6: gets you be Oh I thought you were Oh. 499 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 5: I thought, oh talk right talk. 500 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 6: If you go into a locker room right now, pretty 501 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 6: sure the music is blasting, Guys talking doing everything Instagram. 502 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 6: You know they great communication. Gotta be able to take 503 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 6: that from the locker room to the field so it's 504 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 6: not oh uh talk to each other. 505 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 4: Does this put more pressure on the outside linebackers as 506 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 4: Avin Collins to be able to affect the quarterback to 507 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 4: help the back end because we already had the defensive 508 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 4: line is already decimated, but someone on that front seven 509 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 4: has got to be able to get home. 510 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 6: Well, it starts on first and second down and stopping 511 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 6: the run. First. You have to be able to stop 512 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 6: the Dallas Cowboys rushing attack this week first before you 513 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 6: think about pinning your ears back and try to do anything, 514 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 6: because if you don't do that, then they have access 515 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 6: to every single thing. Play action, regular run, drop back pass. 516 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 6: You just never on kilter. So whoever's the d tackles, 517 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 6: whoever that is, you have to do your job being 518 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 6: your gap. Saw a little bit of that jumping in 519 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 6: and out. That's why say Kwan was able to bounce 520 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 6: some of those runs. Do your job first, put them 521 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 6: in the passing situations, and then allow the outside Zavin 522 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 6: obviously Dennis what he's been able to do to get 523 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 6: after Victor. They have some guys that can get after 524 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 6: the quarterback and make him feel uneasy, but they have 525 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 6: to win on first and second down and put them 526 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 6: behind the sticks so that you can pin your ears 527 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 6: back and play fast football. 528 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 7: So week one, they did a pretty good job at 529 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 7: taking away Terry McLaurin. Right, he didn't wreck that game. 530 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 7: He had the big pass interference thirty seven yards or so, 531 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 7: But talking to guys afterwards, Nick Rowllis and Johnathan Gannon 532 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 7: were hell beenam making sure Terry McLaurin was taken care of. 533 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 7: I think they do the same. This week was Ced 534 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 7: Lamb because his receiving numbers versus everybody else combined in 535 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 7: that receiver room. There's one threat in the past game, 536 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,120 Speaker 7: it's Ceed Lamb, so you make sure he doesn't he 537 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 7: doesn't kill you. Then the Lorenzo's point, Okay, what do 538 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 7: you do against Tony Pollard? And with your d line 539 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:33,239 Speaker 7: depth beam what it is and I don't know what 540 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 7: your options are exactly right now. I mean, you were 541 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 7: playing a practice squad guy in his six round rookie 542 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 7: making his NFL debut. They're already getting a ton of snaps. 543 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 7: I don't know where else you go if you're Nick Rollis, 544 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 7: but you got to figure that out, especially since you 545 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 7: got a front that uses a lot of three down linemen, 546 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,879 Speaker 7: a lot of three down linemen sets, and so that 547 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 7: whole rotation was definitely compromised in the second half. 548 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 5: Easier said than done. 549 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 4: Looking at that Cowboy excuse me that Cowboys offense. They 550 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 4: rely basically on two individuals not named Dak Prescott. You 551 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 4: Brent brought them both up, Ceedee Lamb and Tony Publish. 552 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 4: That is a one to two punch and they've been 553 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 4: basically got nothing out of anyone. They're not even asking 554 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 4: Dak to do a whole heck of a lot. He's 555 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,640 Speaker 4: got two touchdowns and no interceptions. Michael Gallup has two 556 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 4: catches in two games. He's been a complete non factor. 557 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 4: Michael Gallup, who you would think, I mean, there's an effective, 558 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,199 Speaker 4: proven NFL receiver. 559 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean Dallas's best offense has been their defense 560 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 6: at the end, and they's their best offensive player right 561 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 6: now with the given short fields and the way they 562 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 6: just dominating and creating turnovers. 563 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 4: Cardinals and Cowboys coming up on Sunday.

Craig Riolu, Lorenzo 591 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 4: Alexander and Paul Calvic talking about the ground game on Sunday, 592 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,239 Speaker 4: which means specifically, Paul talking about the ground game of 593 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 4: James Connor. Twenty three carries. I liked it because it 594 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 4: was almost ten more than he had in Week one. 595 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 4: You're relying on your ground game to help set up 596 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 4: the play action and the passing game, so yeah, run 597 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 4: James Connor as much as possible. It was successful early, 598 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 4: not so late though, so guys normally feed off James Connor. 599 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 4: The great part of this game was he started to 600 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 4: feed off his quarterback, Josh Dobbs, and what he did 601 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 4: at the goal line. I saw it. 602 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 7: It was on the side. Nobody was more fired up 603 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 7: than Dobbs except for James Connor witnessing that touchdown run. 604 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 7: He's on the sideline, he's doing the flex, he's pointing 605 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 7: to the byseet. Then he pointed to his head, James Connor, 606 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 7: and he yelled out. It's a mindset. It's a mindset 607 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 7: that almost like I've been preaching this the last couple 608 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 7: of years. Now, finally the rest of the guys are 609 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 7: on board. Everyone's matching my intensity, my physicality. James Conner, 610 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 7: who ran in that game like he's stilling the Giants defense. 611 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 7: You're not the boss of me at arm tackle ain't 612 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 7: gonna work. I'm not going down on first contact. And 613 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 7: you know how much the offensive line loves that when 614 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 7: they make the old line look good, because you know, 615 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 7: just some guy gets in with an ankle tackle and 616 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 7: all of a sudden you have a negative run and 617 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 7: the offensive lineman take the yards per carry figure. They 618 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 7: take that very seriously, and James Connor makes those guys 619 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 7: look good. 620 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 4: Offensive line. There was a lot of tight end blocking. 621 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 4: We saw a lot of three tight end sets, but 622 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 4: you're getting use out of a tight end, whether that's 623 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 4: on the line of scrimmage or maybe even in the backfield. 624 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 4: I ea, Trey McBride is a fullback. Maybe a little 625 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 4: Jesse Luketta as well in there. But I like what 626 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 4: I've seen out of this running game, especially on Sunday. 627 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, it was physical, and like I said, when they 628 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 6: came out in that third quarter to respond to the 629 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 6: touchdown of the Giants and that opening drive countertrait physical 630 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 6: downhill outside zone, knocking people physically off the ball, and 631 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 6: you see James count Connor hitting the hole, getting out, bursting, 632 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 6: separating and then and making some significant play, some explosive 633 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 6: plays in the run game. And so that doesn't surprise me. 634 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 6: That's who he is, that's how he does it. And 635 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 6: I think to the aggression piece, right, when you have 636 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 6: those that mentality, you still have to be able to 637 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 6: execute consistently throughout the game. And I think sometimes you 638 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 6: get so amped up, like everybody can't do this. Everybody 639 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 6: can't get amped up to one hundred like James, because 640 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 6: sometimes you start missing stuff, right, you start, Oh I'm 641 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 6: amped up. 642 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 5: Oh I missed my block. 643 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 6: Oh man, I was flying though, So that's where they 644 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 6: have to get to because they got to be able 645 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 6: to close this game out right what they did in 646 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 6: the third quarter, they got to be able to do 647 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 6: that in the fourth quarter and find maybe another driver 648 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 6: to to be able to do that same exact thing. 649 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 6: And the great running teams, even when they know we're 650 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 6: about to run the ball, we still getting four or 651 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 6: five of pop right, And they have that ability because 652 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 6: you could see it. But they went to they made 653 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 6: an adjustment and they weren't able to continue that. And 654 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 6: that's what I want to see them take the next step, 655 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 6: because we know they have it in. 656 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 4: Them games of twenty two to ten and twenty one 657 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 4: yards on the ground on that scoring drive in the 658 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 4: third quarter, James Connor almost did it all on that 659 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 4: specific drive. And it is someone that this offensive line 660 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 4: loves to block for. Paul had a chance postgame to 661 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 4: speak with center, yelled de fro Holt on James Connor 662 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 4: and his running ability. 663 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 11: James, you know, running like a madman. So when you 664 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 11: have an electric guy like James, you know, be able 665 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 11: to find him the ball and get him to give 666 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 11: him chances. And I think every chance he got, he 667 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 11: you know, he made something out of it. He's an 668 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 11: anger man who he has that in his hands, and 669 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 11: I'm happy that he's he's on our sideline. 670 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 4: Question though, is and I don't have that question, Paul 671 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 4: Is because I did like the twenty three touches, but 672 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 4: it was whomever else was coming in after him. And 673 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 4: we saw it in week one that there is no 674 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 4: one that, at least I don't trust running the football 675 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 4: effectively like a James Connor. Now, how many teams have that, 676 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 4: But if you want to keep Connor fresh for the 677 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 4: long term, you're gonna need someone to kind of spell 678 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 4: him and be successful when Connor's on the sideline and 679 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 4: someone else is running the ball. 680 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 7: There's no doubt the game plan was much more north 681 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 7: south than it was week one, where it was more 682 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 7: east west. Okay, talking to some of the coaches, I 683 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 7: can confirm as much that Indeed, as we speculated in Washington, 684 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 7: the game plan was let's try and go sideline to sideline, 685 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 7: wear out those front four defensive linemen, all those first 686 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 7: round picks. Now this game it was much more north south. 687 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 7: We saw that his first carrie went for seventeen yards. 688 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 7: Now he bounced it outside, scooted it up the sideline, 689 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 7: but they ended up ryding James Conner maybe a little 690 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 7: bit more than they wanted. I know Drew Petsing just 691 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 7: made mention that moments ago. But when you got a 692 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 7: hot hand like James Connery, keep feeding him. It would 693 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 7: be nice though, because so far we've seen a significant 694 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 7: drop off. There's James Connor in the running back position 695 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 7: and everyone else. It would be nice to have that 696 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 7: secondary guy for a one to two point in the backfield. 697 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 4: Keyanta ingram Mario de Mercado, who is going to be 698 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 4: that guy in the room. But yeah, it was a 699 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 4: good day for James Connor, but it comes comes in 700 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 4: a loss. So Connor postgame not ready to be too happy. 701 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 3: That's hard to say. I'm happy right now, you know, 702 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 3: for the sick to my stomach. I'm hurt. I'm not discouraged, 703 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 3: but I'm hurt for sure. 704 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 9: You know, we did this thing together, so you offense 705 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 9: put a couple more points up than we did last week. 706 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 3: Still wasn't enough. You know, didn't complete the mission. 707 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 4: And that's what you like to hear, Zoe from a 708 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 4: not only a player, but a star player on your team. 709 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 4: That yeah, individual stats are nice, but winning is even 710 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 4: better because you can enjoy how well you played, right. 711 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 6: Because even as well as he's played, he knows in 712 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,719 Speaker 6: his mind they'll still meet on that bone between him 713 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 6: and his offensive line. As far as being able to 714 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 6: close that game out, those are type of games a man, 715 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 6: we up man, get me the rock right, so we 716 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 6: can run this clock out, grind him like we did 717 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 6: in that first drive or the third quarter, and if 718 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 6: we can maintain that, then we know we can win. 719 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 6: And so knowing James, knowing how hard he plays, knowing 720 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 6: how much he loves this game, right, he's never gonna 721 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 6: be satisfied no matter what he does, especially when it's 722 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 6: in the loss. 723 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 7: Look, we can all be Tuesday Morning quarterbacks. But what 724 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 7: the Giants did to the Cardinals in that second half, 725 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 7: especially the fourth quarter, with the play action using Saquon 726 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 7: Barkley so effectively for the chunk throws downfield. Do you 727 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 7: think in hindsight the Cardinals could have done more of that, 728 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 7: especially after the Giants brought that safety down into the box. 729 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 6: I think they could have potentially, but they still were 730 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 6: in position to win the game. They had too many 731 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 6: mental mistakes, especially the pre snap jumping off sides that 732 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 6: were in critical third downs, I think they went I 733 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 6: don't know if they converted a third down the second 734 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 6: maybe one or two. They had an opportunity to convert 735 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 6: a couple of more that would extended some drives. Maybe 736 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 6: it leads to a field goal or two. But you 737 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 6: can't beat yourself, so I don't. I'm not gonna question 738 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 6: the play calling because they were in position. It was 739 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 6: a lack of execution or a lack of discipline as 740 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 6: far as staying on side, not in your team. Third 741 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 6: and fifteen, third and sixteen, you're not gonna convert to 742 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 6: many of those type of players. 743 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 4: True, just one of four on third down and the 744 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 4: second half versus three or six in the orstein the 745 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,399 Speaker 4: second half versus three or six in the first half. 746 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 4: But going back to the execution and maybe how much 747 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 4: is still completely not on the plates of Josh Dobbs, 748 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 4: still kind of brand new to town, to the offense, 749 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 4: to his teammates. We talked in the break about that 750 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 4: chunk throw to Zach Ertz that was just a little 751 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 4: bit too far. That's a pass though, I think gets 752 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 4: completed if Dobbs is here training camp offseason and has 753 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 4: those daily reps. 754 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, we definitely saw the improvement from Dobbs from week 755 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 6: one to week two. Be able to spread the ball down, 756 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 6: get to push the ball down the field, and he 757 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 6: might have just been so amped up he just overshotting 758 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 6: too right, because you work on those things. 759 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 5: As we talked about all week, It's gonna be there. 760 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 5: Oh it's there. 761 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 6: Ah just airmail a little bit and he's unable to 762 00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 6: make the catch. So I think Dobbs will continue to grow, 763 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 6: continue to get come the bowl, continue to make some plays, 764 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 6: and they're going in the right direction. They're trending in 765 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 6: the right direction. You just want to get some of 766 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 6: these close wins at the end, right. And I know 767 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 6: people worried about next year, but as a player, when 768 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 6: you're in that locker room, you're trying to figure out 769 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,320 Speaker 6: ways to get w's and you can see it developing. 770 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 6: They just hadn't figured out how to close the deal yet. 771 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 6: And that's a lot of young players, a lot of 772 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,760 Speaker 6: new players trying to figure out this new culture, coaching. 773 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 5: All of that is heading the right place. 774 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 1: Now. 775 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 6: They're gonna have to figure it out though, because he 776 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 6: got these Dallas cowboys coming in here that are humming 777 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 6: right now, and it's going to be really interesting from 778 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 6: an offensive perspective, How do they tack this defensive line right? 779 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,320 Speaker 5: Because this defense is better than Washington's. 780 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 3: No doubt. 781 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 5: Look he called it. 782 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 7: Josh Dobbs said he would be that much better in 783 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 7: his second start. He said he expected a huge jump 784 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 7: out of himself in the offense. He did it the 785 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 7: year before Week seventeen to eighteen. His completion percentages, passer 786 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 7: rating was a lot better in his second start versus 787 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 7: his first start last year, so there was precedent for 788 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 7: that question. Is now he's gonna get three starts in 789 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 7: a row, something he's never done in his career. So 790 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 7: how much more upside is there? How much more improvement 791 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 7: can he make in that ceiling And I'd love to 792 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,439 Speaker 7: see you or get into this more that run game 793 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 7: with Josh Dobbs, because even the two point conversion on 794 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,280 Speaker 7: the quarterback power that was effective. 795 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 4: Twenty three yard touchdown run by Dobbs. He's your second 796 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 4: best running back at least right now on the team. 797 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 4: We continue to look ahead Cowboys coming up on Sunday. 798 00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 4: What to expect, perhaps the best team in the league 799 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 4: that's ahead here on the Arizona Cardinals Radio. 800 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:44,320 Speaker 12: Network, Prescott in the gun back is on his left, snap, 801 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,800 Speaker 12: goes back, look into his left looking looking. 802 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 3: Checks it down. 803 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 13: Ferguson, it's the one blames over the pilat touchdown first 804 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,280 Speaker 13: a goal at the one straight eye formation play fake 805 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 13: looking right left, throws it in the ends ut Con. 806 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 13: This is the first professional catch and touchdown for Luke's scunmaker. 807 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 4: Two touchdown passes against the Jets, the first two touchdown 808 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 4: passes of the season for Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott. As 809 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 4: we continue here on the Cardinals Red Sea Report presented 810 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 4: by a Seat Gek Your Ticket to Great Seats Brad 811 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 4: Sham on the Cowboys Radio Network, as the Cowboys on 812 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:28,360 Speaker 4: Sunday grounded the Jets thirty to ten. Cowboys two and 813 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 4: oh they have outscored their first two opponents by the 814 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 4: score of seventy to ten. Of course, they blanked the 815 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 4: Giants week one forty to nothing. But yeah, Dak Prescott, 816 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 4: Tony Pollard, ceedee lamb, I THOSEO want to talk about 817 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 4: perhaps the best defensive player in the game in MICHAEH. Parsons, 818 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:51,240 Speaker 4: who single handily has wrecked two teams in two weeks. 819 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't even know what to say about him. 820 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 6: I mean, he's I mean, he's another version of Aaron Donald. 821 00:38:57,560 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 6: I mean, you know, they caught him a linebacker, but 822 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 6: he's a defensive end. He'll line up inside, outside, he 823 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 6: plays hard, he plays the run. He's just so dynamic 824 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 6: and athletic, big, fast, physical, it's not I mean, he 825 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 6: is what he is. He's everything that he's made up 826 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,399 Speaker 6: to be. And the great thing or not for us 827 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 6: this week, the great thing for him is is that 828 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,439 Speaker 6: he's also playing with a lot of great talent around him. 829 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,959 Speaker 5: So it's hard to just focus on him the whole game. 830 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 5: Right and he moved. They move him around. 831 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 6: They try to find the fish, which is typically the 832 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 6: weakest offensive lineman, and they'll put him over there left side, 833 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 6: right side. Obviously got DeMarcus Lawrence on the other side. 834 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 6: Then you have two shut down corners and so it's 835 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 6: hard to get the ball of your hands as quick 836 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 6: as you want to. And so he's in a great 837 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 6: situation right now. And obviously that defensive collectively, the way 838 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 6: they're playing, it's going to be a tall task this 839 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 6: week for this Arizona Cardinals offense. 840 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,839 Speaker 7: That's a great point about that Dallas depth. It's one 841 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 7: of the reasons Carlos Watkins want to come to the 842 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,319 Speaker 7: Cardinals because he was buried on that depth chart. They 843 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 7: are really low along that defensive front. Gotta love the 844 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 7: confidence of Micah Parsons. After that opening jack stopping forty 845 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,359 Speaker 7: to nothing of the Giants, he went and told the media, 846 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 7: I think we made the statement which I've been trying 847 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,880 Speaker 7: to make quote, we're the best defense in the National 848 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,760 Speaker 7: Football League. He said that throughout the month of August, 849 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,879 Speaker 7: and then after this last game against the Jets, where 850 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 7: he had two sacks, four quarterback hits. He had four tackles, 851 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,320 Speaker 7: a force fumble, a fumble recovery. The question from the 852 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 7: NFL network on the field after the game, when did 853 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,839 Speaker 7: you know, Micah you were going to take over this game? 854 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,280 Speaker 7: And he stared at the reporter and he said, Monday. 855 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 4: So he's like. 856 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 7: A modern day LT. You watch the highlights, he is 857 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:42,280 Speaker 7: that dominant. Yeah, I mean I watched him. I'm scared 858 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 7: for offensive lineman just watching him on film. 859 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 6: Right, you almost want to run at a guy like that, 860 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 6: double team him and just try to pound him and 861 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 6: run at him. You don't want to run away from 862 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 6: him because he has to speed to track it. Down, 863 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 6: but you're gonna have to chip him a lot, obviously, 864 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 6: double team him, and just try to wear him out. 865 00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 6: And this is why the run game is so important 866 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 6: this week because you have to be able to have 867 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 6: play action pass. If the Cardinals line up and try 868 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:08,759 Speaker 6: to go scap protection because they have to because it's 869 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,239 Speaker 6: third and fifteen and everybody in the building knows that 870 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 6: it's they're passing the ball, it is going to be 871 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:19,440 Speaker 6: the longest day ever. I mean, and I'm all serious. 872 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,280 Speaker 6: That's how good this defensive it This defense is, especially 873 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 6: Michael Parson, so first and second down is so significant. 874 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,879 Speaker 6: Getting James Conners going early, being able to play action 875 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 6: off of that to slow this defense down a little 876 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 6: bit and try to find some things in the play 877 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:34,759 Speaker 6: action game. 878 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,839 Speaker 4: One more note on Michaeh Parsons. Peter King in this 879 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 4: week's Football Morning in America column wrote this, Michaeh Parsons 880 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 4: is the closest thing I've seen the Lawrence Taylor in 881 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 4: terms of being able to collapse the pocket with a 882 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:50,920 Speaker 4: bull rush and turnstile a tackle with unblockable speed. 883 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,360 Speaker 6: Wow yeah, wow, It's true. And it's not like hyperbole. 884 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 6: It's not like you just saying that and don't really 885 00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 6: mean it, because this is what you're watching today. He 886 00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:03,240 Speaker 6: is all of that and this is just dynamic player. 887 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 7: So ten sacks as this defense, seven takeaways in two games, 888 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 7: and they're already the first defense to lead the NFL 889 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 7: and takeaways two consecutive years since the nineteen seventies. So yeah, 890 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 7: I have a lot of historically good defense and defensive 891 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 7: players on this Dallas unit. 892 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 4: For Cardinals quarterback Josh Dobbs, yeah, pay attention to our 893 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,360 Speaker 4: number eleven is lining up on the other side. But 894 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,319 Speaker 4: more so than that, just making sure that after a 895 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 4: tough loss on Sunday, this team does not splinter apart. 896 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:34,720 Speaker 3: Got to stick together. 897 00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,800 Speaker 10: If you're out, ways to continue to get better, continue 898 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 10: to dig into our playbooks, dig into our preparation, finding 899 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 10: ways to improve our bodies so that we're able to 900 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 10: come out and get the job done next Sunday. 901 00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:48,800 Speaker 4: Again, looking at this Cowboys defense, it is the number 902 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 4: one defense in the league, ranking first and eleven different categories, 903 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 4: and they back it up with an offense that is 904 00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:59,280 Speaker 4: not as good but is doing very very well, especially 905 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 4: running the foot Paul and they are This is a 906 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,399 Speaker 4: big year though for the Cowboys, I mean every year. 907 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,799 Speaker 4: So yeah, but there's been a lot of pressure on 908 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 4: Mike McCarthy and now he's taken over play calling and 909 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 4: people are going, wow, Okay, this looks pretty good from 910 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 4: an offensive standpoint. 911 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 6: Yes, it looks pretty good given that his defense is 912 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 6: historically great right now, right, And so I think it's 913 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 6: always easy to call plays when you have seven turnovers. 914 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:28,879 Speaker 6: You got Michael Parsons, you got to shut down, right, 915 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 6: and you don't have any pressure on you as of 916 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,759 Speaker 6: in the first two games to have to call and 917 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 6: dial up things and execute under pressure. Not to say 918 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:39,319 Speaker 6: that they don't look better, but that's just says they 919 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 6: haven't had any versity, really diversity on offense to really 920 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 6: have to lean in on that. So you know, I'm 921 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 6: not a big Steven A Smith fan, but you I'm 922 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 6: just wait, just wait, right, It's only two weeks. This 923 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:53,080 Speaker 6: is a long season, right, and see if this defense 924 00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 6: can hold up, if they can be as great as 925 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,760 Speaker 6: they say, because they're great every year, right, But somebody's 926 00:43:57,760 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 6: gonna punch him in the mouth, and then we'll go 927 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 6: to see how great Dak and Mike McCarthy is in 928 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 6: the weapons that they have. 929 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 7: Well, that Dallas offense had to settle for five field 930 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 7: goals right four in the red zone in this last 931 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:10,879 Speaker 7: game could have been a lot worse than thirty to ten. 932 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,439 Speaker 7: Here's two hot takes though, speaking to Steven A number one, 933 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 7: they let Kellen Moore go and they gave the play 934 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,799 Speaker 7: calling duties to Mike McCarthy because if things don't work, 935 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:22,919 Speaker 7: then guess what he's culpable. Why did they pull Dan 936 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 7: Quinn back, especially in the Cardinals interview? Yeah, and make 937 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 7: him an offer he couldn't reviews to stay And then 938 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 7: you're really hot take You need the oven mits is 939 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:35,880 Speaker 7: Deon Sanders is out there and there's already speculation Jerry 940 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 7: loves himself some dion and that might be something he 941 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 7: could not resist as a head coach. 942 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,319 Speaker 4: That would be interesting Deon Sanders and Jerry Jones working 943 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:49,760 Speaker 4: together as coach and owner as opposed to player and owner. YEP, 944 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:54,360 Speaker 4: Cardinals and Cowboys.
