As 13 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: there ever been a better big red rage to hear 14 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: from a kicker Brown Wolfley. Did you watch the NFL 15 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: playoffs last weekend? As a matter of fact, I did, Paulie. 16 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: The special teams were found wanting. So you saw the 17 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: clutch kicks l Grande. You saw how three of the 18 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: four games ended on a walkoff win with a kicker 19 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: delivering the dagger. You saw the Niners and Robbie Gold 20 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: at Green Bay in the snow. You saw the rookie 21 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: Evan McPherson knock out the number one seed Tennessee. You 22 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: witnessed the Rams and Matt Gay at Tampa Bay. Yes, 23 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: I did. But there's a lot more to special teams ball. 24 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: There's a lot more to a football game than just 25 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: the kicker hitting a walkoff football. Now, Wolf, now I 26 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: have to transition. Has there ever been a worse time 27 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,639 Speaker 1: for you to make that statement with our guest tonight, 28 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: Jay Feeling for Cardinals kicking great our special guest tonight 29 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: on the Big Red Race, And Jay's going to be 30 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: the first one to tell you that right now, there's 31 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: a lot more to it, Paul, than just the kicker 32 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: kicking the ball and walking off, Just like there's a 33 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: lot more to it than just a coin toss, Paul, 34 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,839 Speaker 1: did you not see Harrison Butker's forty nine yard that's 35 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: sent the Chiefs nightcap against Buffalo into overtime? The game 36 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: that Jay Feeley works So well, we'll get into this 37 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: with Jay feel. I saw it, Polly. I also saw 38 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,679 Speaker 1: the sea on his jersey. I see you you're maybe 39 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 1: a little haughty, a little haughty with your four Pro 40 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: Bowls on special teams. I get it, I get it. 41 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: You're just you're just not willing to give the crick 42 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: the credit in this one. You might also be a 43 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 1: little bit bitter, a little bit over the fact that 44 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 1: Jay Feely went from his playing career immediately to network 45 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: And we're in the CBS Blazer right on the sideline, 46 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 1: baub Where are you going with all of this, Polly, 47 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: That's what I want to know. Well, it's our intro 48 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: to the original Thursday Night Football. It is the Big 49 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: Red Rage presented by Santa Forward in Gilbert. We are 50 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: Satan Forward, Paul KELBC, Ron Wolfley, and what a weekend 51 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: it was, Oh boy, I mean, you had serious drama 52 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 1: on the field in the playoffs and then you add 53 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl press conference, Ron Wolfley, super Bowl fifty 54 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: seven next year is located where right here, Paul, right 55 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: here in the AC Thanks for working with me. Because 56 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: during that press conference or thereafter, the owner of the Cardinals, 57 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: Michael Bidwell, had a few things to say and an 58 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 1: Accentral dot Com among others, there was the use of 59 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: the word disappointing Ron Wolfley to sum up the Cardinals 60 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: finish to the season, and a couple of quotes along 61 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: the lines of and I do quote anytime you see 62 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: your direct competitors in the playoffs, it should bother any 63 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: football fan, and it certainly bothers this one. And you 64 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: didn't bother you, Paul, It's bothering me right now. Although 65 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: in retro's back to um. Yeah, the NFC, the NFC 66 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: West is the beating heart of the football universe. It 67 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: is the beating heart. We said this going into the season. 68 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: It's been this way over the last two seasons, in particular, 69 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: it's been the best division in the game of football. 70 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: And unfortunately right now for the Arizona Cardinals, they're not 71 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: in the NFC Championship game. But you know what two 72 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: NFC West teams are. We said it all season. If 73 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: you can get through the NFC West and get into 74 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: the playoffs, you're playoff ready. And guess what the Rams 75 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: and the forty nine ers have looked the part. Obviously, 76 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: the Cardinals do not at the La Rams. So you're 77 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,919 Speaker 1: looking at the fact that old boy, you know, you 78 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: were able to able to slug it out and lead 79 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: the division for much of the year. You won three 80 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: out of four against these two teams in the regular seasons. 81 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: So yes, anybody looks at the NFC Championship game, the 82 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: NFC best represented in the Cardinals division, and you wonder, man, okay, 83 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: you know what exactly happened and why it couldn't have 84 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: been us? You know what, Paul, honestly right now too, 85 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: I just gotta tell you this. You know, I was 86 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: really upset by this. I the Cardinals. All they had 87 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: to do was beat the Seattle Seahawks at home at 88 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: that State Farm Stadium. There they were, there were six 89 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: and ten the Seattle Seahawks. All they had to do 90 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: is go out and beat them at home, and they 91 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: would beat the NFC West champions. Now again in retrospect, 92 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: we can look back at it, and everyone was like, hey, 93 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: you know what, don't worry about it, because they're a 94 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 1: great road team. They're going to travel to so far 95 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 1: they've already won their once. And you know that's all true, 96 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: there's no doubt about that. But man, it's the reason 97 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: why I was so greedy. I wanted that ball. I 98 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: wanted that badly to win the NFC West, knowing it 99 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: was the best division in football, and here it is 100 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: being proved out by virtue of the NFC Championship game. Yeah, 101 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 1: and we can cite all the numbers you want from 102 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: that loss in Week eighteen or the loss against the 103 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: Rams in the playoffs, but it's comments like Cliff Kingsbury 104 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: after that loss at him to the Seahawks when the 105 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: division title ended up being on the line, when he 106 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: said an I quote, they wanted it more. And that's 107 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: what resonates to me. So as you go into the offseason, 108 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: you're trying to diagnose what happened at the end of 109 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: this past regular season, where with the playoff loss, you 110 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: lost five out of your final six and and then 111 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: you have to look at your roster and you got 112 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: to figure all right, who's part of the solution, who's 113 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: part of the problem. And here's Cliff Kingsbury before the 114 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: Cardinals departed on the offseason, just about roster planning. That's 115 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: an ongoing process and Steve does a great job of 116 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: getting right into it, and there'll be some tough decisions 117 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: to make and we got to figure some things out. Well, 118 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: don't don't. Don't the decisions go beyond just the game film. 119 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you got to figure out right the chemistry 120 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 1: and makeup of this team, and obviously that that can 121 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: be a hard that can be a moving target, that 122 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: can be really subjective. And so to me, this offseason 123 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: is as difficult as any, just for different reason. Then 124 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: perhaps when you were three and thirteen, No, Paul, you're 125 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: right about the man you really are, because once again, 126 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: it starts with a thought, Paul, it starts with a philosophy. 127 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: What is the Arizona Cardinals philosophy? That's what they'll do. 128 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,679 Speaker 1: They'll sit around the big rectangle. It'll be Steve Kim, 129 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: it'll be Cliff Kingsbury, the coaches. They'll sit around that 130 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: big rectangle and say where do we want to go 131 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: as a football team, because you have to answer that 132 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: question before you go and get pieces that fit. Kind 133 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: of like going into last offseason, stop and think about it. 134 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: Steve Kim had two goals, get more physical and bring 135 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: better leadership into the locker room. He went out and 136 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: he did that in the off season. It starts with 137 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: a thought, it starts with a plan. And although the plan, 138 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: the best laid plans of mice and men off go awry, 139 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: and it did last year I think due to injury 140 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: with J. J. Watt d hop going down as well, 141 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: those two right there, Paul. The more I look back 142 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: on at Paul, the more I think those two losses 143 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: changed everything. Yeah, it changed the Cardinals offense. Obviously the 144 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: only legitimate number one wide receiver, and then he were 145 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: left wondering if you had a legitimate number two receiver. 146 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: At times, You're right, there was a massive trickle down effect. 147 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: And then you know, there were two guys who weren't 148 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: just playmakers, they were mentalities. JJ Watt was one of them. 149 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: The other one was James Connor to me. And then 150 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: when James Connor was banged up, especially in the playoff game, 151 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: and he's wearing the rib protection, he just wasn't the same. Yeah, 152 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 1: And you know, and then you wonder, at least I 153 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: did based on the reaction from guys on the bench 154 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: and just the vibe on the sideline. Was it akin 155 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: to when the Cardinals were between quarterbacks, when they were 156 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 1: between Kurt Warner and Carson Palmer, Carson Palmer and Kyler Murray. 157 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: And once the team got down, the rest of the 158 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: team looked into at the quarterback or looked at that 159 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: they said, you know what, we don't have any chance 160 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 1: to get back into this game, and I think there 161 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: was a bit of that perhaps and why I have 162 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: no idea, that's just utter speculation. You talk about making 163 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: the decision and the decision makers. You know new multiple 164 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: reports out today Adrian Wilson might be a prime candidate 165 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: to be a GM in Jacksonville, along with potential head 166 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: coach Byron Leftwich right, and Paul, you know what, honest say. 167 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: I don't mean to interrupt you here, but I want 168 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: to talk about that. But I think it's so important 169 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: you continue on the track of what the players need 170 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: to do and what the coaches need to do, what 171 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: the organization needs to do. The first thing, PAULI is 172 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: you gotta tell the truth. You gotta tell the truth 173 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: about what you saw. Forget about any type of agendas 174 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: that might sway you one way or the other. You 175 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: have to tell the cold, hard truth. It was one 176 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: of the reasons why when I heard JJ watsay it 177 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: was a massive failure, it filled me with hope, hope. 178 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: It actually encouraged me to hear somebody like that character 179 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: and calling it exactly what it ultimately was. In light 180 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: of how well they had played over twelve weeks of 181 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: the season. I'm talking about three months of the season 182 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: the Cardinals had played ten and two. You have to 183 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: call it exactly what it is, so you tell the truth. 184 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: Everybody tries to be accountable to each other and accountable 185 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: for what happened in the second half of the season 186 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: again and how they played. And that starts with Kyler Murray. 187 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: It does. And then you can start trying to fix 188 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: things via the positions that you might actually bring in. 189 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: And while he's still on the rookie contract, you have 190 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: to make some expenditures and you have to figure out, Okay, 191 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: once again, who's stand who's going. Guys like zach ERTs, 192 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: you gotta figure they're gonna go down swing and trying 193 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: to bring back the big tight end. And here he 194 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: is on the potential of continuing his career with the Cardinals. 195 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: I've loved my time here in Arizona. I would love 196 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: the opportunity to continue here. There's a lot of things 197 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 1: out of my control. You got a lot of good 198 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 1: players at our free agents as well, so it may 199 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: not be even up to me, but it's been a 200 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: blessed thing to be able to be here. I've truly 201 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: loved it. My wife has obviously loved it. Obviously it 202 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: didn't end where we wanted it too, But I still 203 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 1: feel like we have unfinished business as a team. I 204 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: would love to be a part of it. We're gonna 205 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: get into some of these guys with Jay Feely, whether 206 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: it's the two tight end Zach Ertz and Max Williams, 207 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: whether it's Chandler Jones and James Connor, Aj Green, Christian Kirk, 208 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds, you know, I mean, you know a Jordan 209 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: Phillips type, Colt McCoy, you know, even Robert Alfred who 210 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: went into the offseason injured. I mean there's almost thirty 211 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: guys where you have to make a decision on their 212 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: football future. Wolf and so you know there there's gonna 213 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: be an evolution to this roster. There's no doubt about it. 214 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,839 Speaker 1: I think it will be telling asked to who gets 215 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: the contract offers and who does not. There's no doubt 216 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: about that, Paulie. And again, it starts with a plot, 217 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 1: starts with the philosophy, then you start playing in the pieces. 218 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 1: Jay Feeley was on the sideline for Buffalo Kansas City. 219 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: Was it the greatest game he ever witnessed? And he's 220 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 1: gonna be there for the AFC Championship game this weekend 221 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 1: as well. The former Cardinals kicker and CBS analyst up 222 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: next on the Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford 223 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: in Gilbert fey Renny Zacidi to hold a sixty one 224 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: yard try ball is down to kick from Pheeley is up. 225 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: It has the lag and it has Jay Feeley from 226 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 1: sixty one pig the k sixty one yard field goal 227 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: by j Peeley. The gotta be kinning me twenty three 228 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 1: yard attemp now by Jay Feeley, snap and it's a fake. 229 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 1: They pitched the Feeley He's hunting like Peeley cup highlot 230 00:12:55,840 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: fake field count down and Jay Feely with a University 231 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: of Phoenix stadium leaf that your offensive struggling? What's your 232 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 1: kicker has? I guess that's why Feely wears gloves as 233 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:17,839 Speaker 1: a kicker. You know, the Denver Post stole day Pash's 234 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: line right there, because earlier today I went to verify 235 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: that game in some of the stats and in the 236 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 1: Google search first came up this Denver and that was 237 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,479 Speaker 1: the lead line in the Denver Post story. So that's 238 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: why Jay Feely wears gloves. Polly, let me just tell 239 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: you right now. The reason why he wore gloves is 240 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: so he could jack you in the face if you 241 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: only kick her ever to want to jack you in 242 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: the face. Well, you heard two signature moments right there 243 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: from Jay's Cardinal's career, a career best and at the 244 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: time team record sixty one yard fuel goal against the Bills. 245 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: And then there was once upon a time when Jay 246 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: Feely scored twenty five points in the Cardinals game and 247 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: not the Cardinals, Jay Feely scored twenty five points with 248 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: five fuel goals and a touchdown run on the fake 249 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,719 Speaker 1: fuel goal. And he's still gloves except now as an 250 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 1: analyst for CBS on the sideline of all these playoff games, Jay, 251 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: how are we doing? If you Steve frosted yet? It 252 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: wasn't too bad. It was kind of warm. I mean 253 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 1: for Kansas City in the middle of you know, January, 254 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: late January, it was pretty it was pretty warm on 255 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: the sidelines. And by the way, like doing that game 256 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: right there, it's the greatest game I've ever seen in 257 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: my entire life. Come on, really far by far, I mean, 258 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: if dandy on the sidelines, I've never done a game, Paul, 259 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: you do a lot of games as well on the sidelines. 260 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: I have never done a game where I'm working a 261 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: game and I'm literally screaming and yelling like a fan 262 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: on the sideline, you know, like just random people who 263 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: if I'm like, well, yeah, after play, after playing, it 264 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: was unbelievable. I've never seen a game. In fact, in 265 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: NFL history, there's never been a game thirty one points 266 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: scored after the two minute warning? Are you kidding me? Right? 267 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: It was ridiculous. Yeah, it was just high level plays. 268 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: I mean it was just unbelievable play after play. Quarterbacks 269 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: putting them all in the right spot, guys making the catches, 270 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill exploding on the sidelines. I mean, it was 271 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: just it was just the show. And you know, that's 272 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: one of those games where you're like, man, I get 273 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: paid to stand on the sideline and do that. That's 274 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: pretty cool. Jay. How about the entire weekend though? How 275 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,479 Speaker 1: about that entire divisional playoff weekend? Who it was unbelievable, 276 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: was it not. It's the best weekend of NFL football ever. 277 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: I mean, you can there's no way that weekend always 278 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: is the best weekend of the year. The division round 279 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: is the best weekend of football. Every single year. I 280 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: can't wait for that round because it's the best teams, 281 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: it's the best matchups, and to have all four games 282 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: come down to the last play of the game, Uh, 283 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: you know, it's just spectacular. And you know there was 284 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: there was great play, there was terrible special teams play. Yes, 285 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: you know, just agregious coaching. Um just but it was fascinating. 286 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: The whole weekend was fascinating, all right. And we're going 287 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: to get into the conference championship games in depth in 288 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: the next segment. But you mentioned Tyreek Hill. I'm just 289 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: gonna launch our Cardinal's discussion with a following question, And 290 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: this is a genuine question that I've posed before. Is 291 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: there any way Rondale Moore can be a poor man's 292 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill? Can the Cardinals deploy Rondale Moore in as 293 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: similar fashion as Tyreek Hill? Or on I off my rocker, J. 294 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 1: I don't think they're the same kind of player, you know. 295 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: I just I don't think he's as explosive, you know, 296 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: as a Tyreek Hill. But I love the kind of 297 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 1: player that he is, and I love what he brought 298 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: to the team this year, and I think they can 299 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 1: continue to use him in so many ways, and if 300 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: you're creative enough and get the right matchups. Ron, you 301 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 1: know this, The NFL is about matchups. You know, if 302 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: you're gonna win in the NFL, you have to create 303 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: the right matchups and then your quarterback has to leverage 304 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: those matchups. That's what the Chiefs do better than anybody, 305 00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: and they find great ways to to put Kelsey and 306 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: Tyree Hill in the right matchups, using formations, tendencies, motion, 307 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 1: and using the defense against them to get them in 308 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: a position where Patrick Mahomes can exploit it. I think 309 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: you can do that if you if you do a 310 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: good job. You know, as an offensive coordinator with Cliff Kingsbury, 311 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: he can do a good job and he can use 312 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,439 Speaker 1: Ronde more that way. I don't know that they're the 313 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,679 Speaker 1: same kind of player though, Right, Jay, go ahead and 314 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: look at the Arizona Cardinals and just to your general 315 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: opinion on what happened the last couple of years in 316 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: the second half of the season and how you might 317 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: go about fixing it this offseason. Well, Ron, I was 318 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: listening to you the first ten minutes and you said 319 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: something that I know you know I agree with, but 320 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: you hit it on the head and that they have 321 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: to be honest with themselves. Yeah. And when I say 322 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: they and you you as well. You mean players looking 323 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: at themselves, yes, and being honest about where their deficiencies 324 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: are and how to how to get better. Coaches looking 325 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 1: at themselves and say where did I struggle? Where didn't 326 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,160 Speaker 1: I do a great job? Why why do we continue 327 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: to not do well in the second half of the season. 328 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: And I'll just point out that Sean McVay struggles in 329 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: the same way. He's had a lot of the same 330 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:22,199 Speaker 1: struggles with his offense that Cliff Kingsbury has had. You 331 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: know that after they've gone through half a season, that 332 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: defense coordinators start understanding what they're trying to do and 333 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 1: how they're trying to do it, and they don't have 334 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: near as much success. Um, you know. So it's not 335 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: it's not something that is just Cliff Kingsbury when it 336 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: comes to that, Um, you know. But I think you're right. 337 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: I think it starts at the quarterback position. To me, 338 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: I think, um it was. It was very evident last 339 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: weekend when you watch Josh Allen, how how good he is. 340 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: You go back to his his rookie year, and people 341 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: were absolutely calling him a bust and saying that the 342 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: Bills made a very poor decision by moving up in 343 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,959 Speaker 1: the draft to go get him and to make him 344 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: their quarterback. And I think what separates Josh Allen from 345 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: some other guys in the league is that he had 346 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: the humility to look at himself and to objectively look 347 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: at where his weaknesses were as then be proactive and 348 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: going out and getting somebody like a Jordan Palmer who 349 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: could help him to address those weaknesses, and then be 350 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: committed in the offseason, not to going and spending his 351 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: time having fun traveling, did all these things to say, 352 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: now I'm going to spend three months out in California 353 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,119 Speaker 1: with you, Jordan Palmer, and I'm gonna let you help 354 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: me get better as a quarterback and learn the game 355 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: and understand it from a mental perspective and understand it 356 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 1: from a physical perspective. And he did that every year 357 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 1: three years in a row. I think that's why you 358 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: saw how good he was on the field on Sunday. 359 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 1: And I don't believe he would have been that good 360 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 1: had he not taken those steps every off season. And 361 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: I think if you want to get to a championship level, 362 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: that's what you have to do. And he was good. 363 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 1: Statwells and the two playoff games, on the sixteen possessions 364 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: that he was on the field, the Bill score touchdowns 365 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: on twelve of the sixteen possessions. Think about that's unreal. Yeah, 366 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: And his first playoff game was pretty miserable. Lamar Jackson's 367 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: first playoff game was even worse. So these are I mean, 368 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,400 Speaker 1: if nothing else, JA, what you're saying is Kyler needs 369 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: to be honest with himself based on that playoff performance 370 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 1: at LA and make improvements accordingly. I believe that's where 371 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: it starts. I think both the two most important people 372 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: in the organization are Cliff Kingsberry and Kyler Murray, and 373 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 1: obviously Steve kim Is as well Michael Bidwell. But I'm 374 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 1: just saying, from an on the field perspective, your head coach, 375 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: who's your play caller, and your quarterback are going to 376 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: dictate how far you go in each season and whether 377 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: or not you win in the playoffs, and they both 378 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: have to look at themselves and be honest and figure 379 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: out how. I get that. I think Cliff Kingsberry did 380 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: a pretty good job this year. I was impressed with 381 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 1: him is the most impressed I've been with him. And 382 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 1: I think back to Culte McCoy when he started for 383 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: those three games and how well they functioned offensively, and 384 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: what he was able to do to take his offense 385 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 1: and more fit and allow Culte McCoy to succeed. I 386 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: think he did a really good job and I think 387 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: they need to continue to build around that philosophy and 388 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 1: I think it can be successful. And you know, obviously 389 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to go out and you have to 390 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: try to figure out the linebacker position. You know, you 391 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: got two first round picks and they have to get 392 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: on the field and they have to play, and they 393 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 1: have to be successful. You know, you need those two 394 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: guys out there playing helping your team, you know, And 395 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 1: that's something that has to be addressed this offseason. They 396 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: need they need a corner. They need to shut down corner. 397 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,199 Speaker 1: I thyn get it. You need a number two receiver. 398 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: I think, um, you know, if you bring hot back 399 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 1: and you try to get a number two receiver. I mean, 400 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,719 Speaker 1: obviously Christian took strides this year when they moved him 401 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: into the slot and had his best year. But he's 402 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 1: a free agent. Who knows, you know what kind of 403 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: offers he gets, you know, around the NFL, so, um, 404 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 1: you know, those are probably some areas I'd love to 405 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 1: see him bring James Connor back, and I think he 406 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: fits this offense really well and flourished, you know, and 407 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: brought up physicality that they really needed at that running 408 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: back position, and you know, you got just I kind 409 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: of feel like the strength of the Arizona Cardinals is 410 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: still their offense. I still kind of feel that way. 411 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 1: Do you agree with that the strength is their offense. No, 412 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 1: the strength of the team is their offense. Yeah, I 413 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: definitely agree with that. I think they've they've built their 414 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: team that way. You know, look in the playoffs, Look 415 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 1: in the playoffs right now. You know, the strength of 416 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,880 Speaker 1: the Bengals is their offense. The strength of the Chiefs 417 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 1: is their offense. The strength of San Francisco is their defense. 418 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 1: The strength of LA is probably their defense as well. Yeah. 419 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: So you can build championship teams one way or another. 420 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: I think you just need to be committed, Yes, committed totally, 421 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: and yet at the same time, I think what lies 422 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: at the heart of their collapses over the last couple 423 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: of years is their offense. And for whatever reason and 424 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: you agree with that. And because of that, obviously Cliff 425 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: Kingsbury has got to look at it schematically. But when 426 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 1: you start putting the pieces together, I think they need 427 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 1: an offensive guard to help protect Kyler Murray help improve 428 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 1: the running game. If I had to identify one position 429 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: on the offensive line, I would say guard to help 430 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 1: protect Kyler Murray and then wide receiver to give him options. 431 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 1: Of course I'll the bend hop he needs options. And 432 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 1: then also I'm just gonna say this, Jay in rundown 433 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: situation first and ten second and one to six, they 434 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 1: need a stud tight end. They need a tight end 435 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 1: like Max Williams. Go back and look at the film 436 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: in the first five weeks of the season, how well 437 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 1: this offense was playing together, and how balanced this offense 438 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: was as well. A lot of that I think had 439 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: to do with Max Williams. Eleven personnel, one back, three 440 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 1: wide receivers lining up in rundown situation and you didn't 441 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 1: know if they were going to run it or if 442 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: they were going to throw it, because they could do 443 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: both almost equally. Well, that's what San Francisco does so well. 444 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 1: When you have a George Kittle, who is such a 445 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 1: good blocker, but as a dynamic pass catcher as well, 446 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,400 Speaker 1: if provides schematic flexibility. But I don't think they need 447 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: George Kittle per se because everyone's looking for George Kittle everybody. 448 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: I hope not when you've got d hop and you 449 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: had Christian Kirk and AJ. I thought they had some 450 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 1: wide receiver talent on the perimeter man, and it was 451 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 1: Max Williams that brought a lot of that down home 452 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: fundamental balance to an offense, and yet they still had 453 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: dangerous weapons on the field. Well, look, based on what 454 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: you guys just said, and you mentioned Cole McCoy and 455 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: what the offense looked like when Colt was in there, 456 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: Calvci consulting the Polypiskin Division, wouldn't mind seeing more what 457 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: Colt ran with Kyler putting him under center, more play action, 458 00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 1: more quick passes. Right, It's just much more dynamic to 459 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 1: a defense. It presents so much more to defend. Into 460 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: your point, Wolf about getting a guard if that's where 461 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 1: they go at twenty three overall, I have no problem 462 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 1: with that because what did Aaron Donald say after the 463 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 1: game quote, I feel like the quarterback wasn't comfortable at all. Yes, 464 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: and can you put a value on your quarterback being 465 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 1: comfortable and being confident in the pocket, especially those interior 466 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: offensive lineman ball. Yes, especially in this division against Aaron 467 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: Donald and Nick Bosa and company. And so all right, 468 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: we'll get into the SCNFC Championship games. Jay Fey, former 469 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 1: Cardinals kicker and CBS analyst on board.

It was the Bengals team account 493 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: that tweeted out in a quote, that's why you draft 494 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: a kicker, exclamation point? How about that? Jay about? How 495 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: about them apples when it comes to kickers? Right. That's 496 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: pretty interesting too, because I'm the guy who says not 497 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: to draft a kicker because I think it's really hard 498 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 1: to evaluate how a guy is going to translate mentally 499 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: from college to the NFL. And I will say that 500 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: Evan McPherson had a long time kicker as a special 501 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 1: teams coach at Florida Shane Graham, who really prepared him 502 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: mentally to be able to step in and succeed in 503 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: the NFL, and they had they had the same special 504 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 1: teams coach as well, So it was a good situation 505 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 1: for him to step into. But I think that's really 506 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,160 Speaker 1: hard to do in real quick guys. The story goes, 507 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 1: and you know this Jay that Evan McPherson supposedly as 508 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 1: soon as they got into field goal range said well, 509 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: looks like we're going to the FC championship game. He 510 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: was beyond confident walking up for that game winning kick. 511 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: That's unreal to have that sort of well, right, because 512 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 1: when you've missed a couple of those, you're not gonna say, 513 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: you know what the Jay just talk about that though, 514 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: that that moment right there, I mean, how difficult was 515 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: that for a rookie to walk in and do that. 516 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: I know what's based on you know, the type of 517 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: persity is and his personality and his past experience. But 518 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: were you were you surprised he walked out there and 519 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 1: coolly hit that kick. You know, I wasn't surprised that 520 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 1: he made it at all. You watched him kick all day, 521 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: and he had kicked the ball really, really well. Every 522 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: ball was clean off his off his foot. That was 523 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: his fourth game winner of the year. I mean, there's 524 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: a guy who has made eleven cent an NFL record 525 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: this year with eleven field goals over fifty yards, you know, 526 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: which is just spectacular. I think the hardest kick of 527 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: the weekend was Harrison Bucker's forty nine yarder, and I 528 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: think it was it was it was that it was 529 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: the most difficult because he had he had missed a 530 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: fifty yarder going that way at the end of the 531 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 1: first half. He had then missed an extra point. So 532 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: he misses the fifty and pushes it right, almost misses 533 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: a short field goal, pushing it right later on, and 534 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: then over over corrects and misses an extra point left. 535 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: So all of that in his mind as he wants 536 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: out there, you know, to kick this forty nine yard 537 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: field goal after it looks like they lose the game 538 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: and in thirteen seconds they boom boom, get right down 539 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: the field and now you got to step in and 540 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: make this kick. And you know, he stepped in and 541 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: drilled it, and that's why you know he's one of 542 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: the best kickers in the NFL. But I think that 543 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: that was very difficult, and he and I talked about 544 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: it after the game. You know, that was it was 545 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: one of the harder moments he's had in his entire 546 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: NFL career. He championship Cincinnati at Casey one o'clock, Arizona 547 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: time on CBS. Your broadcast crew, Nance, Romo Wolfson and Feeling. 548 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 1: So what does it come down to beyond the kickers, Jay, 549 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: what do you think this game is going to come 550 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: down to Joe Burrow against Patrick Mahomes and company. Well, 551 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: I think it's two things, and I think wolf Wolf 552 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 1: is gonna love one of them. But the first thing 553 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: is can you keep Patrick Mahomes in the pocket? You know? 554 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: And he's such a good thrower, you know, you don't 555 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 1: you know, just think about Okay, well, we gotta keep 556 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: in the pocket because he can he can pick you 557 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: apart in the pocket. But he does most of his 558 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: damage with his legs. You know, He's thrown for more 559 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: yards and anybody in the NFL this year when he's 560 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,239 Speaker 1: scrambling when he gets outside the pocket, and then when 561 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: he's in the playoffs, he'll run the ball and you 562 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: saw that last week, and he's so dangerous running the ball, 563 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: and it just makes it really difficult on a team 564 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: because he is so good on the move and he 565 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: will burn you and hurt you. And that's what makes 566 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 1: it really hard for these defenses. You know that you 567 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: have to then plaster. It's not the initial call, it's 568 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: the secondary calls you have to look out for. And 569 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: then the second thing. I think this is what Wolf 570 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 1: is going to really love for. Since I have any chance, 571 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: they have to be able to do a good job 572 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: on Chris Jones and the interior of that pass rush 573 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: for the Kansas City Chiefs. I mean, they have up 574 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: nine sacks last week and Jeffrey Simmons just killed them 575 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 1: on the inside for Tennessee. And if you allow them 576 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: to do that again, I don't know that you can 577 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: get away with allowing your quarterback to one get hit 578 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: that much and two have that kind of pressure from 579 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: the interior. No, it's a great point right there. And 580 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 1: not only that too, Chris Jones is capable of being 581 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: that guy too. He's talkable, yes, no doubt about it. Okay, 582 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: flip over to the NFC Championship Game. The forty nine 583 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: ers at the Rams. Your thoughts on this. I love 584 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: this match and it's fascinating because you have these two 585 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: coaches who coached together, who developed the same kind of philosophy, 586 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: who then became a head coaches, And then I've had 587 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 1: a tremendous amount of success offensively, even though they kind 588 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: of do it a little different. You know, one team 589 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: loves to live in eleven personnel and the forty nine 590 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: ers love to be in twelve personnel and they're a 591 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: lot more physical and they use the fullback, and so 592 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: to me, it's really a fascinating matchup offensively. And then 593 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: both teams are built defensively on that defensive line, you know, 594 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:19,719 Speaker 1: and San Francisco has gotten after they first they got 595 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: after Dallas and that defensive line with a four man 596 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: front where they don't have the blitz and they just 597 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: get after you. The same thing last week to Aaron 598 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,239 Speaker 1: Rodgers and Green and Green Bay, you know. And then 599 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: obviously the Cardinals fans know really well all about the 600 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: Rams defensive front and what they can do to a quarterback, 601 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 1: and you know, that's that's the matchup. Which defensive line 602 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: has more success and which offensive coordinator head coach is 603 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: going to do a better job calling plays and scheming 604 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: up the possibilities. I think it's a fascinating matchup. I 605 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: love I love it. It'll be it'll be fascinating to watch. Yeah, 606 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: there's gonna be more eye candy in this game than 607 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: you've ever seen before. Right, Kyle Shannon just led the 608 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: league for the sixth right year and sift in motion rate, 609 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: and there's always something to happen. And you know, but 610 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: to your point, Jay, if somehow, some way that Niner's 611 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: old line, which is above average, and with Trent Williams 612 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: and company, if they can keep Jimmy g clean beyond 613 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey, that's secondary for the Rams is such a 614 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: liability and and no one, including the Cardinals, no one's 615 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: been able to really exploit that, Like I think the 616 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: Niners might be able to. Yeah, I'm with you one 617 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: hundred percent. I don't know that the forty Niners can 618 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 1: exploit it, but that's what they should be trying to do. 619 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: On my favorite play the weekend was watching you know, 620 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: they're six foot six, three hundred and fifty pound tackle 621 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: go in motion a couple of times will Ye, No, 622 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: they didn't follow him. They tried to get all cute 623 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: and have him in motion and then run the ball 624 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: off the middle and get scot stuff. But Jay, did 625 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: you see though, Trent Williams went in there. Man, he 626 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: went in there and he wiped out not only the 627 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: opponent but his own guys. Oh yeah, he's just gonna 628 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 1: kill everybody. You know, it was games going with the program, 629 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 1: you know, go in there and kill them all. Or 630 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: maybe the jig is just up on the forty nine ers. 631 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 1: Maybe they're about to get exposed. Because I cited that 632 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 1: stat where with Josh Allen, the Bills scored a touchdown 633 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,320 Speaker 1: in twelve of their sixteen possessions. You realize that the 634 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: forty nine ers have scored a touchdown in the playoffs 635 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:25,879 Speaker 1: on two of twenty possessions. And they're in the NFC 636 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 1: Championship game. So I mean, are they a food gaizy? 637 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: Are they about to be exposed as a fraud? They're 638 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 1: not a fraud because they're so physical. Yeah, but they 639 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 1: lacked the offensive explosiveness to win any kind of a shootouts, 640 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: you know. And and and you worry with Jimmy g 641 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 1: because he's gonna make two or three throws every game 642 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: that are head scratching throws that you just don't understand, 643 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 1: you know, like the throw against Green Bay when you're 644 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: going in and you're trying to score and it's first 645 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: down and you throw this ball late and it gets 646 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,839 Speaker 1: picked off and you're going, what are you doing? Yes? 647 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: You know, And he'll make two or three of those 648 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: throws and if they if they turn him in interceptions, 649 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: you know, then the game get away from me. You know. 650 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: You know Jay, the way that rocks the sideline as well, 651 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: you're over there, you're looking at him. What we're doing it? Okay, quick, 652 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: you're you're super Bowl prediction, super Bowl fifty six. I 653 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 1: want to say one more thing I want to tell 654 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: you because Cardinals fans are going to interstand this. I 655 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: watched Trey Lance warm up before the Dallas game, and 656 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: I was not very impressed at all. In fact, I'd 657 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 1: be very worried if I were the forty nine ers 658 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 1: and I was thinking about turning my team over to 659 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 1: him next year.

The Rams look like they 686 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 1: were done the way the Buccaneers came back, but they 687 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: still went it in regulation thirty to twenty seven. They'll 688 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: host the forty nine Ers at SOFI Stadium next Sunday 689 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 1: for the right to go to the Super Bowl. I 690 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 1: think we all recognize that voice, our own great Dave 691 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 1: Pass preceded by Kevin Harlan on Westwood One, the national 692 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:34,479 Speaker 1: radio calls of those two divisional playoff games that sets 693 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: up the NFC Championship this Sunday, the forty nine Ers 694 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:40,959 Speaker 1: going to the Rams. How many forty nine Ers fans 695 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 1: will be there as a big storyline, no doubt about that. 696 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: Will Matthew Stafford have to go into this silent count 697 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,800 Speaker 1: at home for the second straight game against the forty 698 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 1: nine ers, will see but yeah, that was just dripping 699 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 1: with drama. And think about that, Matthew Stafford. By the way, Wolf, 700 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 1: here's your holy can only stat of the day, as 701 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 1: we say, welcome back in the Big Red Rage presented 702 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 1: by santan Ford and Gilbert since nineteen fifty eight. The 703 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 1: Detroit Lions have one playoff win. That was nineteen ninety one, 704 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 1: Barry Sanders beat the Dallas Cowboys basically single handedly. Uh. 705 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:14,919 Speaker 1: Former Lions number one pick overall Matthew Stafford now has 706 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 1: two two playoff wins. That's right, buy, So there you go. 707 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 1: You know not only that too. First of all, okay, 708 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: it's so weird to hear Dave Pash on that call, 709 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 1: David Moonlight. Why exactly? Um, I know, bad voice and 710 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: you're talking about the Rams. And okay, all right, that 711 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,320 Speaker 1: get over it. Um, that is number one right there, Polly, 712 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,359 Speaker 1: what is your other thought? Your other thought coming up 713 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 1: here on the NFC Championship game? Do you have any 714 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 1: other thoughts about this poll? You know what it is, 715 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 1: and and and there's a little bit of bitterness here, 716 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 1: a little bit. Okay, I'm just gonna say it right 717 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 1: out front. Is that this whole Ram's grand plan. Yeah, 718 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 1: is this close to coming to fruition. They started this 719 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: year saying we're all in the super Bowls in our 720 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 1: own building. We want to be like Tampa a year ago. 721 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,439 Speaker 1: We want to host Super Bowl fifty six. We're going 722 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: all the way. In fact, if everything goes to plan, 723 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 1: we won't even have to leave our own building from 724 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,360 Speaker 1: like week seventeen to the end of this season, and 725 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: so everything for them, now that was a road playoff win, obviously, 726 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,399 Speaker 1: but basically everything has gone the way they had hoped 727 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 1: so far. Yeah, and you know, going all in and 728 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 1: then obviously, but what's vexine is what the Cardinals did 729 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 1: to them in Week four And I still can't get 730 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 1: past that, that physical brand of ball, what they did 731 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 1: to the Rams in their own building that I think, 732 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: in their own minds necessitated. We needed von Miller, we 733 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 1: needed Obj, We have to make moves to compete with 734 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. And then good point pulled away. No, that 735 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: is really a cellion point by you right there, Paula. 736 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: You ought to make that your radio gold vault right there. 737 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: Go ahead and file that one away because you nailed it. 738 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,439 Speaker 1: But honestly, I think back to that week number four, 739 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: I think back to that contest. I think that was 740 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: the height of this offense. I do. Why don't you 741 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 1: go back and you look at that tape the first 742 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 1: especially again I talked about it earlier, the first five 743 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 1: games of the year, just the the the physicality of 744 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 1: this offense um with eleven personnel, with Max Williams. The 745 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: game that Max Williams had as well against the Rams, 746 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:22,360 Speaker 1: I think that was the pinnacle game of this offense 747 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 1: and one that I think they might want to go 748 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 1: back and look at and rehash and rehash and rehash. 749 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 1: Is that because the Cardinals ran it forty times for 750 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 1: two hundred and sixteen yards. Yes, and so much of 751 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 1: the time you were there, Paulli. It was a it 752 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 1: was a very physical north south, in your face run. 753 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,439 Speaker 1: And also too, it highlighted the fact Kyler Murray would 754 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,400 Speaker 1: pull the ball down in run. I remember what was 755 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:51,800 Speaker 1: it a third and sixteen? Was that third and sixteen 756 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: and he went eighteen um the shot he took down 757 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 1: the field. You and I were talking about this very thing, 758 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:01,320 Speaker 1: the the the ability to roll the ball down the 759 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:05,600 Speaker 1: field like we saw Kyler Murray doing earlier in the season. Man, 760 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: I just honestly, that was the highlight of the year. 761 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 1: I'm looking at some of those game notes right now. 762 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 1: Wolf Kyler was twenty four or thirty two for two 763 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 1: to sixty eight, two touchdowns, no picks, yes, at a 764 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 1: passer rating to one twenty. He ran it those six 765 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,799 Speaker 1: times when needed, he ran it for thirty nine yards 766 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 1: the big one on third and sixteen. Cardinals had four 767 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 1: hundred sixty four total yards after an opening punt. They 768 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,720 Speaker 1: scored on seven of eight possessions, when eight of thirteen 769 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 1: on third down and three of five in the red 770 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 1: zone in Polly, that's when they had a secondary. That's 771 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 1: when they actually had the safeties all healthy. Their secondary 772 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:45,320 Speaker 1: was healthy, and the Cardinals just dismantled them in that game. Again. 773 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 1: You know, I realize it's one game I do and 774 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald did not look like Aaron Donald in that game. 775 00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,200 Speaker 1: But somehow, some way, they've got to find a way 776 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: to replicate that. What was intriguing was what j Feeley 777 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 1: said about Sean McVay. There have been times where Sean 778 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:05,240 Speaker 1: mcvay's offense over the course of his season has not evolved, 779 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 1: has bogged down that other teams have perhaps caught up 780 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 1: defensive coordinators. And what did Sean McVey do this year 781 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: after the loss of Robert Woods. They went back to 782 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:18,720 Speaker 1: the Todd Gurley style exactly right, and there was Matthew 783 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,400 Speaker 1: Stafford undercenter. I'm just saying, yeah, I'm not going to 784 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 1: get up on the under center box again, I'm not 785 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 1: going to do that, even though I just did. I'm 786 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: just telling you, Paul, that has got to be something 787 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 1: they look at too. Well. You look at the Cardinals 788 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 1: schedule next season and the home games nine of them. 789 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 1: Not only did that division matchups, but think of some 790 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 1: of the question marks out there Tampa. Who's going to 791 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 1: be the quarterback? Is Tom Brady? Because the Bucks are 792 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,439 Speaker 1: coming to town New Orleans, Who's gonna be the head coach? 793 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 1: Who's gonna be the four quarterback man? Four different quarterbacks 794 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 1: this year? Kse is coming to the az with Patrick 795 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:56,239 Speaker 1: Mahomes and company the Chargers, and Justin Herbert the Patriots 796 00:42:56,400 --> 00:43:00,759 Speaker 1: and Mac Jones, your former coach, Bell Belichick coming to Arizona. 797 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,879 Speaker 1: And then the Eagles are also coming to the AC. 798 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 1: So it is interesting and intriguing that home schedule next year. Paully, 799 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 1: that is incredible right there. To think about it's six 800 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 1: playoff teams. Of the nine games they play at home, 801 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: six of them are going to be playoff opponents. That's significant. 802 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,919 Speaker 1: You know what's amazing is that neither Joe Burrow nor 803 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 1: Josh Allen made the Pro Bowl for the AFC. It 804 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 1: was Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson and Justin Herbert. Those were 805 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 1: your three quarterbacks from the AFC, and it's there's just 806 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 1: an interesting factoid there. But how about how about my 807 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,360 Speaker 1: theory if you will, okay, all right, if it was 808 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:46,839 Speaker 1: Sweep's month, you know, maybe, but that theory that maybe 809 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 1: Tom Brady and or Aaron Rodgers might have their site 810 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: set on the forty nine ers. To Jay Feeley's point 811 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: that Jimmy G is probably done no matter what. Trey 812 00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,800 Speaker 1: Lance doesn't appear to be ready, and if you have 813 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:04,719 Speaker 1: a super Bowl ready roster, then maybe just maybe one 814 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 1: of those two NorCal natives is angling to get back 815 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,319 Speaker 1: with the forty nine ers. No way, I don't see 816 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 1: that happening. You. How many draft picks did you mortgage 817 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 1: to get Trey Lance? Three? Three? I don't know, Polly, 818 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, man. That would take some big circumforts 819 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,439 Speaker 1: right there, John Lynch, I don't know about that, Paul. 820 00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 1: Why not just bring back Jimmy G for another year. 821 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 1: He's got another year on his contract. All right, I'm 822 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:31,839 Speaker 1: gonna read this. I want your super Bowl prediction when 823 00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 1: I'm done.
