Speaker 6: Chiefs have now struck a deal with pat Riley to

46
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 6: trademark in place for three pet Okay, we'll see about that.

47
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 6: And then the NFL Honors is tonight. Of course your

48
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 6: host is going to be Snoop. Of course he's going

49
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 6: to host NFL Non Honors tonight and they're gonna hand

50
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 6: out the hardware.

51
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, the NFL Honors, I'd like to

52
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: see that going to the NFL Pro Bowl and having

53
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: the biggest, baddest awards bank what you can possibly have

54
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: one week after the Super Bowl. That's what I'd love

55
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: to see the NFL do at some point in time, Paulie.

56
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: But it's not a surprise you went out with the

57
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: super yachts and started with the super yachts because you

58
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: are a car guy after all.

59
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 6: Well, okay, we had the Pro Bowl. That was like

60
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 6: so last Sunday they had the Pro Bowl flag football game.

61
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 6: Seventy six sixty three was the final score, by the way,

62
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 6: and they still played more defense than the Phoenix Suns

63
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 6: as of late. Budda Baker had a pick six in

64
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 6: that game. Trey McBride found the end zone. You know

65
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 6: what's a flag football Pro Bowl game? When he jumps

66
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 6: into the foam pit. So that was great stuff. There.

67
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 6: We're gonna get to some Cardinals news in a moment.

68
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 6: But on Radio Row earlier today, Wolf, Let's get right

69
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,079
Speaker 6: to it, Trey McBride was with the Check the Mic

70
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 6: podcast Sam Monson. They asked him about playing tight end

71
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:30,639
Speaker 6: in the Drew Petsen scheme.

72
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 7: You know Drew pets and our offensive coordinator has such

73
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 7: a fun offense for me for tight ends. He loves

74
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 7: the tight end position. There's twelve personnel, thirteen personnel, so

75
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 7: we're always out on the field and I think that's

76
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 7: so much fun. And the offense is really revolved around

77
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 7: a tight end a little bit, so you need a

78
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 7: good tight end for that offense to be successful. And

79
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 7: I'm glad that I was able to fill that role.

80
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 7: And you know that'd be a huge part of our offense.

81
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: All right.

82
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 6: So there's Trey McBride. Of course, he made headlines this

83
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 6: year for hurdling. Former teammate of Year's Wolf who really

84
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 6: brought hurtling into vogue. Larry Centers, I Buried the lead,

85
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 6: is our guest tonight on a very special edition of

86
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 6: The Big Red Rage. So Elsie is coming up in

87
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 6: a matter of moments. We're going to talk about the

88
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 6: Super Bowl, we're gonna talk about the Cardinals run game,

89
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 6: Trey McBride and more. But first there's Trey talking about

90
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 6: the current Cardinals scheme and I'm guessing that's music to

91
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 6: your ears right there.

92
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: No, it really is Paully. Once again. It's funny though

93
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: that he was talking about twelve personnel, one back, two

94
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: tight ends, thirteen personnel one back, three tight ends, of course,

95
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 1: and how much Drew Petsing loves to use those personnel

96
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: groups and he does. But what really is the difference

97
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 1: is Trey McBride is a stud tight end, a guy

98
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: that you can go eleven personnel, bully, one back, one

99
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: tight end, three wide receivers. You can do it in

100
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,600
Speaker 1: first and ten second and one to six classic rundown situation.

101
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: You can do it. And we've talked about this often,

102
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 1: but that, to me is the best part about having

103
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: a Trey McBride in a Drew Pettsing offense. It's because

104
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: you can go eleven personnel and you can stay balanced

105
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,359
Speaker 1: in rundown situations.

106
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 6: And it's not just any tight end that can check

107
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 6: all those boxes, right. The ability to stay on the

108
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 6: field all three downs, no matter the down, and distant,

109
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 6: don't matter the personnel group. In fact, Trey McBride was

110
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 6: asked about the skill set required of a modern day

111
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 6: tight end.

112
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 7: Well, you know, there's different types of tight end, so

113
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 7: it's hard to you know, put them all in one box.

114
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 7: But you know, you have to be able to do

115
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 7: both pass game and run game in my opinion. You know,

116
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 7: I think if you're helping the run game, you help

117
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 7: with the blocks a little bit, it's gonna open you

118
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 7: up and lead to that open past game as well.

119
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 7: So you've got to be able to do both and

120
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 7: be very successful in both.

121
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 6: How much upside do you think Trey McBride still has.

122
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 6: I mean, this was his first full season as a

123
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 6: full time starter, year number three. I mean, how much

124
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 6: do you think he's still ascending as a player.

125
00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: No doubt he still is developing and getting better right now. Listen.

126
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: I believe that every player evolves and develops over time.

127
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that. And when I say time,

128
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: I'm typically talking about three to five years after that

129
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,479
Speaker 1: you're pretty much you are what you are at that

130
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: point in time. I think he can still get better.

131
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: Paully and watching him. I was so jacked up to

132
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 1: actually see him do the flip out of the Pro Bowl,

133
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: right in the flag game, doing the flip and into

134
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: the big pit of you know, soft whatever they had.

135
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: Their phone pet was the phone pit, Paully. They're all

136
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 1: were jumping into it. And you know what I noticed.

137
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 1: I noticed he's built a relationship with George Kittle. Yes,

138
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 1: you can see it, do you remember, Paually. I mean,

139
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: these guys they get along really really well. They acknowledge

140
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: each other. Of course, all the time he goes and

141
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: he's gone to the tight end school of course with

142
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 1: George Kittle, Travis Kelsey. But I love the fact he's

143
00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: building that relationship with George Kittle because George kit to me,

144
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 1: is still right now if you're going to have a

145
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 1: true stud tight end, George Kittle, I think is the

146
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: best in the league right now. And Trey McBride is

147
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: right there with him. And I love that because he's

148
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: building that relationship with a guy that I think he

149
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: wants to emulate as well.

150
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 6: And of course, Kansas City is in their fifth Super

151
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 6: Bowl in six years, and right there, every step of

152
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 6: the way with Patrick Mahomes has been Travis Kelsey, who

153
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 6: has already broken some of Jerry Rice's postseason receiving records

154
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 6: all time. So yes, there is definitely a role, a

155
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 6: big role in today's NFL for a playmaking tight end.

156
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 6: There's no doubt about that. We mentioned news on the

157
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 6: Cardinals coaching staff reportedly, here's what we know. Dallas announced

158
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,119
Speaker 6: to Clayton Adams has taken their offensive coordinator position. Of course,

159
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 6: he was formerly the Cardinals offensive line coach. Reports out

160
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 6: saying that Justin Fry is coming over from Ohio State.

161
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 6: Wolf spent the last three seasons as the Ohio State

162
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 6: offensive line coach. And then we get to defense line

163
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 6: and Derek LeBlanc. Reports say the Cardinals have parted ways

164
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 6: with their dline coach in the last couple of years,

165
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 6: and they're moving on to a young man twenty seven

166
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 6: years of age, former teammate of Nick Rowlis at the

167
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 6: University of Minnesota, where he started thirty six games as

168
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 6: a defensive lineman. I'm sort of buying time because I'm

169
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,239
Speaker 6: looking at his fourteen letter last name and I'm thinking,

170
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 6: you know what, maybe we'll have him pronounce his name.

171
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: Winston de Lattebadet, the third defensive end bottom of Maryland.

172
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 6: That's back from his playing days.

173
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: Well, that is so good, right there? Can I hear

174
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: that one more time? Paul? It can we played that

175
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 1: one more time?

176
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:35,439
Speaker 5: Here?

177
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,319
Speaker 6: Winston de Latte bade the third. Thank you, jim O

178
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 6: Mahundra right there. So well, if you have a whole

179
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 6: off season to work on that one, Okay.

180
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was a little surprised to actually see any

181
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: change at the coaching position right now, but this is

182
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: the way the NFL has gone, and we'll continue to

183
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: go as well. Opportunities are coming and going every year

184
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: right now, and there's a lot more movement not only

185
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 1: with the NFL of course, but also in college Pauly

186
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 1: as well, the NIL and free agency and the portal

187
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: that basically exists at the college level right now. With

188
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: that portal, it's just amazing how much movement. And it's

189
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 1: not just with players, Paul, yep, it's also with coaches

190
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 1: because of all the movement with the players. So it's

191
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: a situation where it's a different NFL than what it

192
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: used to be back fifteen, twenty, even five years ago.

193
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 6: So Sam Seekis goes from inside linebackers coach at the

194
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 6: Cardinals DC Virginia Tech. Reportedly Christian Garcia is coming over

195
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 6: from Dallas, and then past game specialist Spencer Whipple has

196
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 6: been hired to be the Jacksonville quarterback coach. Reportedly, Hey,

197
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 6: you want to know about Super Bowl Sunday, Let's talk

198
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 6: to someone who's been there and won that. Larry Centers

199
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 6: is next on the Big Red Rage presented by santan

200
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 6: Ford in Gilbert.

201

Speaker 8: Plumber back to throw, looks up the middle. Now he dances,

202
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,599
Speaker 8: Now he runs. Plumber's on the tent. Plumber throws in

203
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 8: the end zone to a wide open Larry Centers. He's

204
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 8: got it doors and Jake Plumber just sucked everybody to him.

205
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,920

Speaker 6: Larry Sitting and that number that jersey. We'll get a

211
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 6: mentioned a little bit later by a current cardinal foreshadowing.

212
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 6: Here on the Big Red Rage presented by santan Ford

213
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 6: and Gilbert, we are santan Ford, Paul calvic, Ron Wolfley,

214
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 6: and Larry Centers. But wolf first I have a question

215
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 6: for you. I'm trying to figure something out here, Wolf, Okay,

216
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 6: I get it, Polly Pigskin over here. I'm trying, you know.

217
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 6: But you had twenty six career receptions. That's that's right, Okay,

218
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 6: you were listed. You were listen did as a fullback.

219
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 6: Larry Centers was mainly listed as a full back. He

220
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 6: had twenty eight receiving touchdowns. Okay. He has the most

221
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 6: catches by a running back in NFL history, more than

222
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 6: Marshall Falk who was number two. How is it that

223
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 6: you two guys were listed as playing the same position.

224
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 6: I just I aming a hard time deciphering that.

225
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,559
Speaker 1: I have no idea party. I'm still trying to figure

226
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: it out myself. All right.

227
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 6: Larry Centers is our guest and always a pleasure. Larry,

Speaker 9: This time of year it's always exciting for everybody who's

234
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 9: played the game. Wolf can attest to theirs that it's

235
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 9: always great with this time of year when with down

236
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 9: the two teams that have fought and gone through the

237
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 9: injuries and the ups and downs of the season and

238
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 9: find themselves in a position to win a championship, it

239
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 9: always kind of pieks everyone's interesting up. I'm really excited, Paul,

240
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 9: and I'm just anxious to see who's gonna pull this

241
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 9: thing out.

242
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: So right now, Elsie, what do you miss most about

243
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: the game of football? Right now?

244
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 9: You know, even though it's been quite a while since

245
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 9: I played wolf, it's it's the same things almost every

246
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 9: player will tell you. And it's the camaraderie. It's the

247
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 9: going to work with your buddies every day, you know,

248
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 9: fighting for a common goal, for a common plan. And

249
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 9: and there's nothing that I've found since I've retired, even

250
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:44,439
Speaker 9: now to this day, nothing that compares to to that camaraderie.

251
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 9: And uh just at brotherhood, man, That's that's the thing

252
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 9: that I missed the most.

253
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 6: I'll tell you what I mean, Guys like Larry Centers

254
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 6: and and Roy jetstream Green, right, two guys that we

255
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 6: have on the big red rage, two guys who could

256
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 6: really hold their own in the locker room, wouldn't you say?

257
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 6: I mean, oh, man, could they dish it out right.

258
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about it, Baul. Even when LC was

259
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: a rookie, he came in and he showed a lot

260
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 1: of promise, a lot of promise immediately.

261
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, on the field, in the locker room, keeping guys,

262
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 6: let's just say accountable, always always a good time around

263
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 6: their lockers, no doubt about it. All right, Larry, here's

264
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 6: my question. I look at this matchup and these two teams.

265
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 6: I just want to start in the Super Bowl real

266
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 6: quick before we get to the Cardinals. And you have

267
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 6: Saquon Barkley with a two thousand yard rushing season. He

268
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 6: gets thirty yards in this Super Bowl. He'll have the

269
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 6: most rushing yards through a postseason any running back ever,

270
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 6: passing Terrell Davis, which was the last Super Bowl champion

271
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 6: to have a rushing champion. Can you still run the

272
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 6: ball and win a Lombardi Trophy here in twenty twenty five.

273
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 9: I definitely think so. And I think the reason for

274
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 9: that is the game is so cyclical. The game is

275
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 9: a big circle cycle. And I think that, you know,

276
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 9: as teams have gone more into the passing offensive scheme

277
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 9: of things, I think they neglect to even you know,

278
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 9: learn how to stop to run. So I think that

279
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 9: the running game is always going to have his place

280
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 9: in the game because it provides each their team with

281
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 9: the ability to control the clock. And when you control

282
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 9: the clock, you can keep the other team's offense on

283
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 9: the bench, which is which is a weapon in itself.

284
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 9: So I definitely believe, you know, I'm fully for sake, Quod.

285
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 9: I was hoping that they were able to get in

286
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 9: the record, but unfortunately, you know, they made the right

287
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 9: call to this point. But he's had a special season

288
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 9: so far, and I'm looking forward to see what he's

289
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 9: going to do in the Super Bowl.

290
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 1: I was just going to ask you that right there, Elsie,

291
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 1: just the Eagles ability to run the ball and the

292
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs as well. In the Kansas City Chiefs,

293
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: they got a pretty good front seven. This is a

294
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: this is a front seven that was number eight number

295
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: seven respectively in terms of rushing yards per game allowed

296
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: and rushing yards per play a lot. Do you think

297
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 1: that is the matchup of Super Bowl fifty nine, the

298
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: Eagles ability to run the ball against the Kansas City

299
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: Chiefs front seven.

300
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 9: You know, you bring up a good point, but I

301
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 9: think one thing that stands out Wolf is that you know,

302
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 9: even if sa Quon doesn't go out and rush for

303
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 9: one hundred and fifty yards or two hundred yards, he's

304
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 9: still going to affect that chief the defensive play calling.

305
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 9: They're gonna have to load up the box and they're

306
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 9: gonna have to alter the way they normally play defense

307
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 9: just to be sure that they're able to stop to

308
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 9: runn So, you know, if I was the Chiefs that

309
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 9: come in to this game with the defensive game plan

310
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 9: to make Jalen Hurts beat you with his arm, and

311
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 9: that would you know, kind of equalize even the playing field.

312
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 9: But I think the effect that sa Quon will have

313
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 9: the most is that he will cause the Chiefs to

314
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 9: alter the way that they play their defensive schemes front.

315
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 9: I expect to see a lot of blitzers in this

316
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 9: game from Kansas City one blitzes as well as blitzes

317
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 9: on obvious passing downs.

318
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 6: Hey, Larry Center's our guest here on the Big Red

319
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 6: Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert just third on

320
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 6: the Cardinals all time receptions list, behind only Larry Fitzgerald

321
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 6: and Ang Kwon Bolden, and as someone with a Super

322
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 6: Bowl ring with New England. There, Elsie, just tell us

323
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 6: about playing on Super Sunday, you know, tell us about

324
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 6: you know halftime, right, I mean thirty to forty minutes.

325
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 6: By the way, the Super Bowl you played in was

326
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 6: the infamous wardrobe malfunction game. By the way, you know,

327
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 6: what do you do when you have a thirty or

328
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 6: forty minute halftime? How did you sort of manage your

329
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 6: emotions when it's one of the biggest events on the planet.

330
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 9: That is one of the toughest things about it that

331
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 9: most people never really pay attention to is that this

332
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 9: is basically two different games because the halftime is such

333
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 9: a long stretch between the two. So there's a whole

334
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 9: lot more that are being able to be made because

335
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 9: of the length of the halftime show and all this

336
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 9: other kind of hooplah going on. But you have a

337
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 9: really good chance of kind of what to expect. I

338
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,359
Speaker 9: think all the most of the skeletons are out of

339
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,440
Speaker 9: the closet as far as what you can expect from

340
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 9: a team. But I think it's a tale of two

341
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 9: game plans most of the time. You know there will

342
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 9: be some major adjustments made at halftime, and you know,

343
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 9: I think in that regard in this particular game, I

344
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,439
Speaker 9: think the favor goes in uh for Andy Reid on

345
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 9: that I think he's the best one game coach. And

346
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 9: that's the football league right now.

347
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 1: So right now, Elsie, when you look at Patrick Mahomes

348
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,360
Speaker 1: and the fact that he just went to his seventh

349
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: consecutive AFC Championship game, and the fact that he's got

350
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 1: the possibility of winning his fourth Super Bowl, maybe the

351
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: third Super Bowl in a row, which of course would

352
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: be a record in the National Football League. Nobody has

353
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: ever won three Super Bowls in a row. If Patrick

354
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 1: Mahomes wins this game, wins Super Bowl fifty nine, is

355
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 1: he the greatest quarterback ever to play?

356
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,399
Speaker 9: Well, it's hard for me to speak down or speak

357
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 9: against my my my quarterback Tom Brady, but you have

358
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:20,880
Speaker 9: to make the argument. You know, three in a row,

359
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:25,159
Speaker 9: it's never been done before, as everybody knows. You know,

360
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 9: they put together quite a dynasty up there. I think

361
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 9: three in a row you have to put him in

362
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 9: the greatest conversation.

363
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: You know.

364
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 9: The consistency is speaks volumes and any time you can

365
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 9: do it at the highest level in the league, in

366
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 9: the NASA Football League with the greatest players in the world.

367
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 9: I mean, you got to tip your hat to the

368
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 9: guy and you know, give him his flowers.

369
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 6: And of course Tom Brady's going to be on the

370
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,199
Speaker 6: call on Fox on Sunday. All right, Larry Centers is

371
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 6: our guest Bigger of Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert.

372
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 6: Let's fast forward to the twenty twenty four twenty five Cardinals.

373
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,919
Speaker 6: There was Garrett Williams, second year cornerback. I don't know

374
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 6: if you saw this, Larry, but it was the Cardinals

375
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 6: Monday Night game against the Chargers and he showed up

376
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 6: wearing an else throwback jersey and on an earlier version

377
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 6: edition of The Big Red Rage, we asked Garrett Williams

378
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,679
Speaker 6: himself to tell us what was behind that. Garrett Williams,

379
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 6: what what did you do recently to bring Larry Centers

380
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 6: back into the news.

381
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean I wore jersey to our Monday night.

382
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,199
Speaker 1: Game right there.

383
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 5: So how did that come about?

384
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 1: It was really unplanning.

385
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 10: One of my friends had been telling me that I

386
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 10: need to go to this place called Tembi Throwbacks. So

387
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 10: I'm in there, I'm just you know, I'm looking around,

388
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 10: and then the store owner comes up to me. He's

389
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 10: telling me all the different things, and he's like, yo,

390
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 10: I got this jersey. You get this, bro, Like nobody

391
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 10: has it, you.

392
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: Know what I'm saying.

393
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 10: So then he kind of starts explaining it to me,

394
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 10: like the Larry Sener jersey, who he is, things like that,

395
00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 10: and he showed us to all like yeah, you need it,

396
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 10: need it. And so then after that it was just

397
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 10: a matter of like, all right, when do I want

398
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 10: to wear it? And I feel like the Monday night

399
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 10: game was like the perfect time to rocket, you know

400
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 10: what I'm saying, because I feel like that jersey, that's

401
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 10: not something you can just wear in the game, you

402
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 10: know what I say, You got to wear it on

403
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 10: a special occasion.

404
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 5: By the way, you guys share the same birthday, Junie, I.

405
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 10: Was just about to say that my dad told me

406
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 10: that after the game. I was that's great. I did

407
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 10: not know that.

408
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 5: That's a mind blow right there.

409
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: That's crazy about the right jersey.

410
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 6: Yeah, he bought the right jersey. How cool is it

411
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 6: here to hear that, Larry Man?

412
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 9: That is beyond cool. And by the way, Garrett Williams

413
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 9: is my new favorite player in the league right now. Yeah, man,

414
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 9: you know and I tell you what really stands out

415
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 9: to me is, you know, the sobering reality that you know,

416
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 9: this Gary Willis was probably not even born back when

417
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 9: I was, you know, when I first came into the league.

418
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 9: So you know, it kind of put things into perspective.

419
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,160
Speaker 9: And it's great to be to be recognized this long

420
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 9: since I played. And like I said, I'm a number

421
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 9: one fan of Garrett Williams, and I'm wishing him nothing

422
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 9: but the best and the greatest success.

423
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 6: Real quick, there were plenty of LC jerseys and then

424
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 6: nineteen ninety eight playoff season. What do you remember most,

425
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 6: especially about the stretch run where you guys, you know,

426
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 6: made the playoffs and then the big win.

427
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,959
Speaker 9: And big d Man, anybody that's played the game and

428
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 9: going to the playoffs will tell you that there's something

429
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 9: special that happens in every locker room whenever you get

430
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 9: to the playoffs and you start galvanizing. You know, the

431
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 9: regular season is one thing, you know, you have to

432
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,199
Speaker 9: deal with the injuries and the ups and downs and

433
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,199
Speaker 9: all the stuff trying to define who you are as

434
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 9: a team. But once you get to the playoffs, man,

435
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 9: you need all hands on deck and it's just the Brothershood.

436
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 9: It just takes it to a whole other level. And

437
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 9: that's what I remember most. And one thing that was

438
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,160
Speaker 9: super special to me was how the fans in the valley,

439
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 9: you really just rallied around our team. We're gone through

440
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 9: some rough times and sun Devil and back then during

441
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 9: the nineties, but to have it all come together and

442
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,120
Speaker 9: they had Jake to Snake at the Helm and everybody

443
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 9: doing their job, the Niss, everybody just doing you know,

444
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 9: just making it happen. And I just remember just coming

445
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 9: together and then going to Dallas and wear a playoff game. Man,

446
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 9: that was a that was a very special time during

447
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 9: my career.

448
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no doubt about that. I'll see no doubt

449
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 1: about that. That was fantastic. Okay, So looking at the

450
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,679
Speaker 1: current iteration of the Arizona Cardinals today, James Connor, I

451
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: just absolutely love watching James Connor run the football. What

452
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: are your thoughts when you watch James Connor and the

453
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals run the ball?

454
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 9: Wolf Man, what a stud man? Connor is just a

455
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 9: he's a he's a stud man. He's a He's a

456
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,399
Speaker 9: guy that really when he's got the ball in his hands,

457
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 9: you know you can't you know anything can happen. You know,

458
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 9: you know something probably is going to happen. He's a

459
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 9: bowling ball. He's a bull back there with the ball

460
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 9: in his hands, and like I said, I love watching

461
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 9: him run. I never expected him to be this good

462
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 9: coming from from Pittsburgh, but he's been such a great

463
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 9: addition to this team. Man, And he's really he's an

464
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 9: attitude guy. He kind of brings the sets the attitude

465
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 9: and the sets the tone for for this tough, hard

466
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,120
Speaker 9: nosed football team. And I've been impressed with what he's

467
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:20,719
Speaker 9: been able to do.

468
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 6: You know that's it's really in a stude observation because

469
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,200
Speaker 6: we've been saying that here this past year. He's more

470
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 6: than a player, he's a mindset. How much can players

471
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,360
Speaker 6: feed off a single guy who might be that guy

472
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 6: a team captain? I mean, how much can you really

473
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,439
Speaker 6: set a tone for a locker room? Is that a

474
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 6: real thing?

475
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 9: That is absolutely a real thing, And I think it

476
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,439
Speaker 9: even it's even more of a real team when you

477
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 9: have that tone center at the running back position. You know,

478
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 9: that's how you impose your will on the opposing team.

479
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,400
Speaker 9: You've run the ball down their throats and there's nothing

480
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 9: they can do to stop it. You know. That makes

481
00:23:55,720 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 9: sure uh your cahoonas drop and uh you know, just

482
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 9: like I said that having one player one player, it

483
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 9: always has to have more. But you have one player

484
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,120
Speaker 9: that's a spark plug on the team. That's a good

485
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 9: start for getting things going, getting things started in the

486
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,159
Speaker 9: right direction. And James Connor has depth. They've been that

487
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 9: guy that we called him from the past few years.

488
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 1: So you know what is really cool too, Elsie is

489
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: the fact that the Arizona curdles have a tight end.

490
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,479
Speaker 1: And it's Trey McBride that I'm talking about. And I

491
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 1: know you're aware of Trey McBride, but he loves to

492
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 1: hurdle people. Have you seen him do this? Elsie?

493
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 9: Absolutely have washed him. And you know, he kind of

494
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 9: reminds me of some stuff that I used to try back.

495
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what I was going to ask you.

496
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, man, but what an athlete though, Man, this guy

497
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 9: is a beast. You know when he gets the ball

498
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 9: in his hands, you know those dbs that they know

499
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 9: they can't hit him up top, and he knows they

500
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 9: can't hit him up top, so his only option is

501
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 9: to jump over him. And he's been successful with it

502
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 9: so far. I just wanted to be a little bit

503
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 9: more selected.

504
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, to go up. But Larry, that that was you. You.

505
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 1: You did some hurdling on the football field as well.

506
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,439
Speaker 9: Yeah, man, you know that was the thing. You know,

507
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 9: once you get your momentum up, you know, it's either

508
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,479
Speaker 9: run over them or run over them or jump over him.

509
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 9: And you know you got to choose to you know,

510
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 9: choose wisely. It is the best thing I can say

511
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 9: about that.

512
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 6: Well, let me tell you when he makes when he

513
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 6: makes the silver screen with his hurdle like you did

514
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 6: in Jerry McGuire, then Trey McBride will have something to

515
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 6: talk about, you know what I mean. In fact, we're

516
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 6: gonna show him Jerry McGuire and show him your hurdle,

517
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 6: your famous hurdle there against Dallas on Monday night. Hey, Larry,

518
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 6: we really appreciate it, really enjoyed it. Always a pleasure,

519

00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:41,360
Speaker 1: You give me three dirt liquors and a ground pounder

532
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,679
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna break the plane every time.

533
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,880
Speaker 3: Urry, barking out the call, takes the snap, hands it off.

534
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,400
Speaker 3: Benson running left, dives into the end zone. First first touchdown.

535
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: Give it to Trey Benson. Let him get a little

536
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,000

00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: Yeah.

543
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 6: Cardinals. Much of the season were a run first offense.

544
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 6: Seems like when the Cardinals are at their best on offense,

545
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 6: it is run first. It is kram at vertical. Sure enough.

546
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 6: Second straight season under Jonathan Gannon and Drew Petsing, they've

547
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 6: been a top ten rushing team. Second straight season. They

548
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 6: finished number two in yards per carry better than five

549
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 6: yards of carry in twenty twenty four. Welcome back in

550
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 6: to the Big Red Rage presented by santan Ford and

551
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 6: Gilbert We are santan Ford, Paul calvic Ron Wolfley in

552
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 6: special thanks once again to former Cardinals running back Larry Centers. Interesting,

553
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 6: among other things, when he said that the advantage in

554
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 6: the game Super Bowl Sunday, in his words, goes to

555
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 6: Andy Reid, who's the best single game coach ever quote

556
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 6: un quote from Larry Centers. We'll get into the Super

557
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 6: Bowl a little bit later here to wrap up the

558
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 6: Big Red Rage, but first we'll give me your thoughts

559
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 6: on what Larry had to say on whether there is

560
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 6: a role for a run game in today's NFL. Obviously,

561
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 6: the Eagles are speaking that into existence. They are going

562
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 6: to come out of this season, out of this playoff

563
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 6: run with more than three thousand rushing yards as a team,

564
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,919
Speaker 6: one of the best rushing seasons in the history of

565
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 6: the league.

566
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: Paul, there's no doubt about it. The running back is

567
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,399
Speaker 1: back in the National Football League and the running game

568
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: is also back in the National Football League. The pendulum,

569
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,479
Speaker 1: we talk about it all the time, but it's swung

570
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 1: all the way out there. About four or five years ago,

571
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 1: it was all about the spread and this new age

572
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,479
Speaker 1: offense that was taking over the zone read of course,

573
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: and the RPO it was taking over the National Football League.

574
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: And now I think it is swung back that pendulum

575
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: the way that it always does. And now it really

576
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 1: is a mixture of what is going on. So is

577
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 1: there a spot for Saquon Barkley and being a dominant

578
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 1: rushing attack like the Philadelphia Eagles aren't, Yes, of course

579
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 1: there is. Is there a spot for a James Connor

580
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: and the Arizona Cardinals to be able to go out

581
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 1: there and be a run first team. Yes, And you

582
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 1: know what, You're seeing it more and more and more

583
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 1: all over the NFL.

584
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 6: It's amazing how players know players. When you asked Larry

585
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 6: Centers about James Connor, he talked about the mentality, how

586
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 6: he sets the tone. How often have we talked about

587
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 6: that with in regards to the Cardinals team captain. In fact,

588
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 6: here's Jonathan Gannon towards the end of the season. Remember

589
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 6: what he said when he was asked, why is James

590
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 6: Connor a premier player?

591
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 11: We have some different variety in the run game, and

592
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 11: he can really do it all. He can run wide zone,

593
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 11: he can run inside zone, he can run gaps, gemes,

594
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 11: he can do it from gone, from under, from pistol

595
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 11: so and then obviously his style of running. He's a

596
00:29:59,080 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 11: premier player.

597
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: You know.

598
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 11: He hits it, he's got good vision, he's got good balance,

599
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 11: he's hard to bring down, he's got juice.

600
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, he spent the whole season in the top three

601
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 6: or five running backs in the league, along with the

602
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 6: likes of Derrick Henry and Mistackle Sports just breaking tackles

603
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 6: yards after contact and well, if you know that, that's

604
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 6: the favorite running back of an offensive lineman, right, the

605
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 6: guy who doesn't go down on first contact.

606
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt about it, Bully. They love blocking for

607
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: a guy like James Connor. What was so interesting just

608
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 1: listening to JG is he mentioned all those things in

609
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: every one of those attributes of James Connor, Pully, He's

610
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: right on, He's spot on, absolutely legitimate, every one of

611
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 1: those things he mentioned and he mentioned many things they

612
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 1: are about James Connor, and yet leadership might be the

613
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 1: best thing about James Connor. His leadership not only his

614
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: ability to walk up to somebody and say, come on, now,

615
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 1: we need you, you can be better, let's go, but

616
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: also by going out and competing the way that he does, Polly,

617
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 1: the impact that he has. You've seen this. You've seen

618
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: it with the defensive players that are over on the sideline.

619
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: When James Connor trucks somebody. Oh boy, do they come

620
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: off the bench?

621
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 6: Polly, Oh, absolutely they do, yep.

622
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: And that is that is a form of leadership once again,

623
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 1: to go out and play as hard as he does,

624
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: where he challenges every guy that's on the sideline, every

625
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: guy that's out on the field, whether it's the player

626
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 1: for the Cardinals or the opponent that they're playing. He

627
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 1: challenges everybody on the field. Are you willing to play

628
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: as hard as I am? Are you willing to give

629
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 1: what I give?

630
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 6: So, as a Cardinals go into year three under Drew

631
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 6: Petsyen and Jonathan Gannon, what do you think the likelihood

632
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 6: is of a one to two punch, for example, a

633
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 6: Trey Benson developing into that guy I think in the Lions,

634
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 6: for example, a big run team. I think a David

635
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 6: Montgomery the muscle, and then Jamier Gibbs right, and I

636
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 6: look at a James Connor. I say, you know what

637
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 6: if he has a running mate, a guy like Trey

638
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 6: Benson who runs a sub four four but looks like

639
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 6: he learned at the school of James Connor. About mid

640
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 6: season before he got injured, he started lowering the shoulder pads.

641
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 6: I'm really intrigued about the upside of Trey Benson in

642
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 6: year two.

643
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: I love the fact that you acknowledge that, Bully. I

644
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: love the fact that you said, you know, midway through

645
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 1: the season, suddenly Trey Benson started running the ball in

646
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 1: a much more vertical kind of way, a north south

647
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 1: kind of way, and ripping it, dipping and ripping on

648
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: a lot of would be tackles. I'm so glad you

649
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: said that, because when he first showed up, he was

650
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: incredibly fast, He looked great in a UNI, and he

651
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 1: was about dancing a little bit, and dancing a little bit.

652
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: I would say too much, and I think Trey Benson

653
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: would tell you this himself, but man, he got it.

654
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: After sitting in the same room as James Connor and

655
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: watching the same tape and listening to a coach glorify

656
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 1: James Connor for what he was doing. I think Trey

657
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: Benson learned an awful lot, and he got better as

658
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: the year went along, of course, to a point where

659
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,959
Speaker 1: he was averaging four point six yards per carry himself.

660
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 6: When you talk about the other three guys who stood

661
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 6: out the most the second half of the season, between

662
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 6: Amar de Mercatto and he got dinged up at the end,

663
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 6: DJ Dallas he got action in the backfield the end

664
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 6: of the season, and then Michael Carter the last couple

665
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 6: of games. If you're Jonathan Gannon, what are you thinking

666
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 6: about the rest of that running back room right now?

667
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: Yeah? I know, bully, and it's really really tough right there.

668
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 1: Michael Carter is not a big contributor on special teams,

669
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 1: but I love him. He is the one guy. Man.

670
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 1: He's the smallest of those running backs that you just

671
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 1: mentioned right there, He's the smallest, but man, he he's

672
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 1: got this something something about him that I think is

673
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: really interesting. I think DJ Dallas is a great special

674
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 1: teams player. Think he's always gonna have a spot on

675
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 1: your roster. I think he can be a guy that

676
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,239
Speaker 1: can come in and be a third down back, or

677
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,800
Speaker 1: you can line him up, stick his toes at seven

678
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,959
Speaker 1: yards and let him attack the line of scrimmage. He's very,

679
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 1: very thick. But yeah, of those three guys that are left,

680
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: I would have to say Michael Carter strikes me as

681
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,360
Speaker 1: being the most advanced in terms of being a pro.

682
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,320
Speaker 1: And at the same time, I would have to say

683
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 1: that Amari de Mercado, I think is the perfect combination

684
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 1: of a guy who can be a backup to James

685
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: Connor in rundown and a guy that can come on

686
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 1: and be a third down back as well.

687
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,040
Speaker 6: And my last question is about the running quarterback. And

688
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,919
Speaker 6: I bring that up because look at the Super Bowl,

689
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,080
Speaker 6: look at Jalen Hurts, the ability to keep a defense. Honest,

690
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 6: look what Lamar Jackson did this year more than nine

691
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 6: hundred yards rushing. He's probably gonna be your MVP tonight.

692
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 6: And then Patrick Mahomes. Do you realize that Patrick Mahomes

693
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,240
Speaker 6: is the all time leading rusher in Kansas City Chiefs

694
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 6: playoff history?

695
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 1: More though I did not not know that.

696
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 6: So when the postseason, it's Patrick Mahomes uses his legs

697
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 6: to great effectiveness. Would you still continue to feature Kyler

698
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 6: in the run game going forward?

699
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would not feature him, PAULI, I've been very

700
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 1: consistent on Kyler Murray and not featuring Kyler Murray. Do

701
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: I want to have a couple of called runs for

702
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,879
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray in a game? Yeah? Absolutely? Do I want

703
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 1: twelve called runs for Kyler Murray? I do not. I

704
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 1: want him to use his legs, and I want him

705
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: to do that at an unscheduled level, if you know

706
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: what I mean, instead of calling the play for him,

707
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,320
Speaker 1: I want him to use his legs and his athleticism

708
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 1: when the opportunity presents itself.

709
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,760
Speaker 6: I learn all about Cardinal's season tickets, the luxury seating

713
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 6: Red Rage presented by Santan Ford in Gilbert.

714
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,280
Speaker 2: Toss it to the left side, Barkley's got a lane

715
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,479
Speaker 2: to the fifty to the forty five has been moved.

716
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 5: To the forty fourth.

717
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,800
Speaker 4: He still coming on six at six side twenty fifteen

718
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 4: ten touchdown, say what Parkley, He's incredible, sixty yards skidding

719
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,760
Speaker 4: away from would be tacklers. Shotgunsnap, Mahomes run its himself

720
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 4: at the ten inside the.

721
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 3: Numbers took five and he times ten for the touchdown.

722
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 4: Ten yard touch shown.

723
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 6: Run by Mahomes.

724
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 4: Clucker's ahead in the wish phone formation.

725
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 1: He takes it and runs for six.

726
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 6: How about it? Kevin Harland Iron Eagle on the calls

727
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 6: right there once again, Patrick Mahomes, the all time career

728
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:52,760
Speaker 6: rushing leader in the postseason for the Kansas City Chiefs,

729
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 6: Saquon Barkley and NFL record seven touchdown runs of sixty

730
00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 6: or more yards this season. So there, It's all part

731
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 6: of our preview year Super Bowl fifty nine or rematch

732
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 6: of Super Bowl fifty seven, which was played two years

733
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 6: ago at State Farms Stadium. Paul Kelve, c Ron Wolfley,

734
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 6: and two Super Bowl trends. Wolf you tell me which

735
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 6: one is more meaningful. You're ready for a little info?

736
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 6: Here here we go, yeah, Pauly go Okay. So the

737
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 6: Chiefs are underfeed of this season win. Taylor Swift is

738
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:23,560
Speaker 6: watching boyfriend Travis Kelcey in person. They're nine to zero.

739
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 6: Oh no, or you could opt for Patrick Mahomes has

740
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 6: never lost to Eagles d C Vic Fangio. He is

741
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 6: eight to no all time, six times when he was

742
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,799
Speaker 6: head coach of the Denver Broncos and then twice when

743
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 6: he was DC of the Miami Dolphins. Suffice it to

744
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,840
Speaker 6: say that Vic Fangio did not have the same personnell

745
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 6: he has right now in an Eagles defense that was

746
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 6: either one or two in pretty much every meaningful category

747
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 6: this year. So how stout is that Eagles defense and

748
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 6: how equipped are they to go against Patrick Mahomes and company.

749
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Paully, this this is going to be an awesome game,

750
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 1: and I hope it is. I hope that it's going

751
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: to be a contested, one possession game coming down to

752
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: that last possession. I really do believe it is going

753
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 1: to be competitive. But to me, there are a couple

754
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,839
Speaker 1: of matchups in Super Bowl fifty nine. One of them

755
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,359
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, Pat Mahomes of course in the Kansas City

756
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 1: Chiefs ability to throw the ball via Travis Kelcey of

757
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: course as the number one receiver in that And there

758
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 1: are some other receivers out there that are very familiar

759
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: to Cardinal fans. DeAndre Hopkins of course and Hollywood Brown

760
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 1: and we'll see, we'll see how that transpires. But that number,

761
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 1: that passing attack of the Kansas City Chiefs against the

762
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:46,359
Speaker 1: number one defense in the National Football League against the pass,

763
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: both in yards per game allowed and yards per play allowed,

764
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: it is the Philadelphia Eagles. They are excellent. They are

765
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,800
Speaker 1: the best in the football universe in terms of shutting

766
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,759
Speaker 1: down the pass. That is one of the great matchups,

767
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,720
Speaker 1: I think in this game. And then when you flip

768
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: it around the other side of it, it's the Philadelphia Eagles'

769
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: ability to line up and run the ball against the

770
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs front seven that is very very tough,

771
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,080
Speaker 1: top ten in terms of rushing yards per game and

772
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:22,880
Speaker 1: rushing yards per play allowed, two strengths going at it

773
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: on two different sides of the ball. That to me

774
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:27,359
Speaker 1: is going to be the matchup of this game.

775
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 6: All right, So let's talk about Mahomes against that number

776
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:34,399
Speaker 6: one ranked passing defense of the Eagles. You realize in

777
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 6: his career in the playoffs seas three to zero against

778
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 6: teams who have number one ranked passing defense. I mean,

779
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,360
Speaker 6: the stats are just ridiculous. For a guy who's seventeen

780
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 6: and three all time in playoff games, they have won

781
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:49,879
Speaker 6: seventeen straight one possession games. It but what the real

782
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 6: key If you drill down and you read a lot

783
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 6: of this analysis out, there was the quick passing game

784
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,880
Speaker 6: that Kansas City and Andy Reid used to pick apart

785
00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 6: Philadelphia in Super Bowl fifty seven at State Farm Stadium.

786
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,279
Speaker 6: On quick passes under two point five seconds, Mahomes went

787
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 6: thirteen for thirteen, two touchdowns in a passer rating a

788
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 6: one twenty nine. So I'm wondering for everything that Vic

789
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 6: Vangil might dial up. Is Patrick Mahomes just sort of

790
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 6: like a curve warner, just able just to quickly decide

791
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 6: and decipher, read and react and pick apart a passing defense.

792
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 1: Yes he is. He is that good. But here's the

793
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,799
Speaker 1: thing with the Kansas City Chiefs. You also have to

794
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: have your receivers on the same page. And that's what

795
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 1: I think is going to be a challenge for the

796
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs in terms of going ahead and trying

797
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 1: to throw the ball as much as I think they will,

798
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:44,320
Speaker 1: even though the Eagles are excellent at shutting it down.

799
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,000
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got guys like Darius Slay Junior. You

800
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 1: got guys really experienced secondary CJ. Gardner Johnson as well.

801
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 1: You've got guys in that secondary that are excellent football

802
00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: players that you're gonna have this row the wide receivers

803
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 1: for the Kansas City Chiefs, and that to me to

804
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 1: your point, PAULI, I think they're doing everything they can

805
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 1: to try to really get them off of the route

806
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 1: that they want to run. And I think we're going

807
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: to see an awful lot of press in this game

808
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:16,240
Speaker 1: as well.

809
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,680
Speaker 6: And you know what, that's a good point. The Eagles

810
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 6: defense has eight new starters this year. Think about that,

811
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 6: including yeah, two rookie corners who are both finalists among

812
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 6: the top five for Defensive Rookie of the Year and

813
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 6: Quinyan Mitchell and Cooper de jen. Here's the other thing

814
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 6: I'll throw. As long as we're talking about Philly's defense,

815
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,360
Speaker 6: I think they have an advantage when it comes to

816
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 6: that interior d line. If Joe Tooney is going to

817
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 6: be out at left tackle, then you're under manned in

818
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 6: the interior line for Kansas City. And I mean, I

819
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 6: would be afraid, very afraid if I'm Andy Reid and

820
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,400
Speaker 6: Patrick Mahomes. I mean, the wrecking balls that are Jalen

821
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 6: Carter and Jordan Davis. Yes, because we know how Tom

822
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 6: Brady lost his Super Bowls, right. You got to hit

823
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 6: and harass these.

824
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 1: Guys, There's no doubt about it. You do. You have

825
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 1: to be able to do that, and I think the

826
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles have four guys that can actually get to

827
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,080
Speaker 1: the quarterback, especially when you're talking about the interior with

828
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 1: Jordan Davis and Jalen Carter in particular. One of the

829
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 1: most destructive forces there is in the football universe is

830
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 1: a three technique, and that is Jalen Carter. He does

831
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: it over and over and over again and penetrates and

832
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,880
Speaker 1: does an excellent job as well, mixing it up sometimes bowling,

833
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 1: sometimes going with the arm over does an excellent job

834
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 1: in terms of getting that push up the middle in

835
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,400
Speaker 1: that interior pocket. And it's not just that though, Paully.

836
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:36,879
Speaker 1: It's also this Brandon Graham. I'm just going to throw

837
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 1: that out there right now. I mean Brandon Graham. They're saying, Paulie,

838
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:43,839
Speaker 1: I'm hearing he could be a go for Super Bowl

839
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: fifty nine. And if he is, I know he hasn't

840
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 1: played in a long time. I know he's been on

841
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 1: IR all season long for the most part. But Brandon Graham,

842
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 1: that's a name to remember. If he gets the opportunity

843
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 1: with those fresh fresh legs to go out there and

844
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:02,839
Speaker 1: rush Pat Mahomes, who knows.

845
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 6: You know, it's remarkable too. Real quick. On the Eagles defense,

846
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 6: their middle linebacker Zach Bond, I mean, he has been

847
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 6: bawling out first team All Pro. He had four unremarkable

848
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 6: years in New Orleans. He signed a one year, proven

849
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 6: deal for three point five million. I mean, you talk

850
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,720
Speaker 6: about paying off, He's going to be a free agent.

851
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 6: Keep an eye on Zach Bond. That dude is going

852
00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 6: to sign a huge contract. So now when you look

853
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,479
Speaker 6: at that Philadelphia offensive line, let's flip sides real quick.

854
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 6: You talk about the KC defensive front, but you got

855
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,720
Speaker 6: an Eagles offensive line. All five guys got All Pro votes.

856
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,720
Speaker 6: That is maybe the best offensive line in the league.

857
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 6: And they know it. They don't take a lot of risks.

858
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 6: Since Week eight, they're plus twenty seven in the turnover ratio.

859
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 6: They are not turning the ball over and they just

860
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 6: play really sound offensive football, do they not?

861
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,879
Speaker 1: No doubt about it, Pully, That offensive line is right there.

862
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,279
Speaker 1: When you talk about the best offensive lines in the

863
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,400
Speaker 1: football universe. And it's funny because I think of Landon,

864
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 1: Dickerson and Mackay. I think of those two guys as well.

865
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: Why do I think of those two guys? Well, because

866
00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:10,359
Speaker 1: I'm looking at Chris Jones. Of course, it's that destructive

867
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:14,080
Speaker 1: three technique force. That's gonna be interesting to see where

868
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 1: Chris Jones decides to line up and rush the passer.

869
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:20,800
Speaker 6: I'm looking at Makai Becton. Not only is he six '

870
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:25,800
Speaker 6: seven three sixty something, but he's a free agent after

871
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 6: this year. He's the former eleventh pick overall by the

872
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:31,640
Speaker 6: Jets who flamed out mainly because of injuries at tackle.

873
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:36,879
Speaker 6: He is now a dominating interior guard. Hmm, you think

874
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 6: of a team that might very interesting?

875
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:39,799
Speaker 1: All right?

876
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:41,840
Speaker 6: So Wolf, let's get you what do you think? I

877
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,839
Speaker 6: know you load the predictions, but are you leaning one way?

878
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 6: Come on, give us a choice here. What are you thinking?

879
00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 1: You know what? Poly Football is a game about running

880
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,080
Speaker 1: the ball, and by the way, if you can turn

881
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 1: your opponent over, you're probably gonna win that game. Based

882
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,279
Speaker 1: on what I've seen from the Philadelphia Eagles, they're going

883
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 1: to run the ball and they're gonna show you down.

884
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,880
Speaker 1: And turn you over. I think the Eagles are going

885
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:03,399
Speaker 1: to win this.

886
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 6: Game, really, because all four Super Bowl rematches that have

887
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 6: occurred within five years have been won by the winner

888
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,239
Speaker 6: of the first meeting. Kansas City, Here comes your three peat,
