1
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: Defense, good, offense, not so good. That's how I'd sum

2
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: up week one. Welcome Bird Gang. On today's show, Paul

3
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: Calvic joins me. He was in Washington where the Cardinals

4
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 1: dropped a twenty to sixteen decision to the Commanders. Our

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 1: first impressions of Josh Dobbs as QB one and a

6
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:25,600
Speaker 1: defense that excelled on all three levels, plus the surprise

7
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: award at the end of the show. You're not gonna

8
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 1: want to miss that. It's Cardinals Cover two, episode six

9
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,840
Speaker 1: seventy one, and it starts now.

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 2: Welcome to Cardinals Cover two.

11
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 3: Wood to Baker, what Heart?

12
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 2: What rent?

13
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 3: This guy's unbelievable.

17
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: He's at the ten half of five.

18
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 3: He's it again, so far hurry back.

19
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 2: Who here's Craig Griolud.

20
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: So before we begin, Paul, are you dry? Have you

21
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,960
Speaker 1: recovered from what was a very unusual day of weather

22
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 1: in our nation's capital on Sunday? I mean it was cloudy,

23
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 1: there was some rain in the third quarter and then

24
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,399
Speaker 1: sunshine in the fourth quarter totally cleared up by the

25
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 1: time we were doing the postgame interview.

26
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's the way it worked. Dif definitely brought

27
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 3: the rain suit. Didn't make that mistake. Probably should have

28
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 3: digitized all my notes. Paper was a bad choice. So

29
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 3: my notebook. I mean, come on, it's week one and

30
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 3: I've already waterlogged my notebook. Not cool, but we're gonna

31
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 3: try and survive.

32
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: In advance, you would have thought at this stage of

33
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: your career, being the veteran sideline reporter, that you had

34
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: figured out how to keep your notes dry, or even

35
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: tablets or something.

36
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you think tablet. The problem is, you know,

37
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 3: you have to be able to sort of jot stuff down,

38
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 3: and you can only do it really with one hand.

39
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 3: So if you're typing it, just whatever, I'll figure it out,

40
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 3: and so, you know, here we go, Here we go.

41
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 3: Let's see what my recall is. Forget the stinking notes.

42
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 3: This isn't one of those tests where you can refer

43
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 3: to notes. Let's go.

44
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald always like to say champagne problem exactly all right.

45
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: Twenty to sixteen, the final Cardinals lose at the commanders.

46
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: They had the lead going into the fourth quarter, and

47
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: let's touch on that and the bright spots in the game.

48
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: I think there are a number of bright spots when

49
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: you talk about the defense, because that was the biggest

50
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: question that I had answered going into Week one, and

51
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: it was specifically what kind of defense, what kind of

52
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: pass rush would they be able to stop anyone as

53
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:47,079
Speaker 1: far as in the secondary, but just affecting the quarterback.

54
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 1: And I get it, it's one game. It's Sam Howell

55
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: making just his second career start. But Paul the seven sacks,

56
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: the consistent pressure, whether it was the d line or

57
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: the outside linebackers, that to me was the biggest positive

58
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:02,839
Speaker 1: takeaway a week one.

59
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 3: You're not gonna have a twenty SAT guy, obviously, so

60
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 3: what do you do. You bring guys in in waves.

61
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 3: You use a rotation, and every time somebody gets a snap,

62
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 3: they have fresh legs, they have that hunger. Because there's

63
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 3: basically a competition going on during the game. You would

64
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 3: think by the time you hit the regular season, okay,

65
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,239
Speaker 3: jobs are won. Not so much, at least not yet.

66
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 3: There were a whole bunch of different guys getting in

67
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 3: at different times in the game, and so when you

68
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 3: do get that rep, guess what you're gonna bring it.

69
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 3: I think it also serves to change things up for

70
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 3: offensive linemen who might get locked into one edge rusher

71
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 3: over the course of a game and can learn a

72
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 3: guy's moves or the speed of which he's going to

73
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 3: come off the edge. But now if you have a

74
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 3: Dnis Gardeck coming off and another REP it's is Zaving Collins,

75
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 3: and yet another REP it's the rookie bg O Jilauri.

76
00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 3: These are all vastly different body types, different skill sets,

77
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 3: and so I think it provides a bit of a

78
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 3: moving target, a curveball of sorts, and it's hard for

79
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 3: an old line to get locked in. There was production

80
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 3: across the board, and you mentioned Dennis Gardek because he

81
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 3: did not get the start, And again, when you look

82
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 3: at who starts and who doesn't, it's basically just the

83
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 3: first snap of the ballgame and then the rest you're

84
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 3: just looking at snapcounts. But when you do look at snapcounts,

85
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 3: Gardak really stood out two sacks and he only did

86
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 3: it in twenty eight snaps. Zavon Collins was on the

87
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 3: field for forty two snaps. That was the most of

88
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 3: any edge rusher, but a Cameron Thomas twenty six snaps,

89
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 3: Victor D. Mchage who did get the start opposite Zavon

90
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 3: twenty five snaps, and then b Joe Jolori checked in

91
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 3: with just seventeen snaps. So this is or shoot me

92
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 3: twelve snaps. So this to your point, Paul, the rotation,

93
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 3: because yeah, you want Zavon on the field, maybe more

94
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,159
Speaker 3: just because of his ability as we saw dropping into

95
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 3: coverage on the interception, but as far as getting in

96
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 3: a rotation, as far as giving that offensive line or

97
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 3: a tied end a different look to where they don't

98
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 3: know what you're going to do. And I thought it

99
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 3: was very impressive at least for the first week. And

100
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 3: we saw different defensive schemes being dialed up by Nick Rowsis.

101
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 3: That was the big question, all right, how aggressive would

102
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 3: they get to what degree would they blitz and bring numbers?

103
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 3: Jonathan Gannon with seventy sacks as defensive coordinator as Philly

104
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 3: last year, guess what didn't need to blitz? They were

105
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 3: so talented in that front seven. So we saw different

106
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 3: schemes and we saw Nick Rowsis get aggressive at different times.

107
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 3: But again going into this game in particular, the mantra

108
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 3: was Sam how do not let Sam Howe get outside

109
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 3: the pocket. Keep him in that pocket, make him read

110
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 3: and react, make him diagnose and deliver. Cardinals were adamant

111
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 3: internally that, you know what, we keep him in the pocket.

112
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 3: That's in our best interest. So what happened he got

113
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 3: after the Montes sweat force fumble there at the end

114
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 3: of the third quarter. To start the fourth quarter, Sam

115
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 3: Howe on and goal from the six, gets outside the

116
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 3: pocket and he rumbles into the end zone. Other than that,

117
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 3: they did a pretty good job of keeping him contained

118
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: and I expect to see a lot more of the

119
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 3: same going forward. I thought an underrated guy in the

120
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 3: defense that just he bawled out just by the fact

121
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 3: we didn't mention his name, Key Troll Clark. Did he

122
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 3: not play every single snap?

123
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: He and Marco Wilson played every single snap, and that

124
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: secondary locked down Terry McLaurin, who only had two catches,

125
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 1: targeted four times and was a basic non factor in

126
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:36,919
Speaker 1: that game.

127
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 3: Terry mcgloran most definitely did not wreck that game. Had

128
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 3: the thirty seven yard defensive PI he drew that was

129
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 3: part of that opening drive where almost all the yards

130
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 3: were via penalty and they got into the end zone there,

131
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 3: but otherwise he did not go out there and destroy

132
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 3: a six round rookie. And just by my eye, Key

133
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 3: Trell Clark was on seventeen a lot in that game.

134
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 3: I'm dyna asked Jonathan Gann and how it played out,

135
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 3: if he'll actually give us the information how many times?

136
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 3: Because Jonathan Gannon told us on his weekly TV show

137
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 3: Game Plan, which was every Friday night on twelve News

138
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 3: six thirty, he said, there's gonna be different times at

139
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 3: different points in the game where the two corners are

140
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 3: gonna be manned, and there's gonna be times where they're

141
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 3: gonna get help over the top. So I'm curious how often,

142
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: Especially as that game went on and they they got

143
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 3: to trusting Keith Troll Clark more and more. I believe

144
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 3: he was really sound in his technique and he was

145
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 3: running stride for stride. I was trying to keep half

146
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 3: an eye on him, especially when seventeen was to the

147
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 3: Cardinals sideline and very impressed for week one. In fact,

148
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 3: I don't think you really saw another corner out there,

149
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 3: did you, Because when they go with it went with

150
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 3: a fifth eb it was almost always Kavon Wallace.

151
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: He was huge. But as far as we look at

152
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: the cornerbacks, Antonio Hamilton had five defensive snaps. Christian Matthew

153
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: did not play a single snap on defense. But Keavon

154
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: Wallace really the unsung here, if you will, defensively, someone

155
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 1: who just arrived. But yes, he's familiar with Jonathan Gannet,

156
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: he's familiar with Nick Rolis. He's aware of that Eagles

157
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: defense having played there. How much is that Eagles defense

158
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: now here in Arizona. But Keevon Wallace fifty snaps, two passes, defense,

159
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: seven tackles. He didn't get a sack, he didn't get

160
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: a turnover. But that's a player to keep an eye on,

161
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: because when they do run three safeties and put Jalen

162
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 1: Thompson maybe more towards the line of scrimmage in the slot,

163
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: it was Wallace who was back there with Buddha Baker

164
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 1: kind of playing Oh hey, the Isaiah Simmons role that

165
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 1: was supposed to be for Isaiah. He's gone, we'll see

166
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: him this week. But Keavon Wallace comes in and I

167
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: thought played excellent.

168
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was definitely instinctive on that one pass breakup

169
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 3: that was nearly a pick six. I mean he was

170
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 3: that close. The whole sideline simultaneously cheered and groaned because

171
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 3: he was that close to picking that ball off and

172
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 3: here gone if he would have had his hands on

173
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 3: that one. So you saw the instincts, You saw the

174
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 3: ability to break on the ball. You saw a guy

175
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 3: who could read a young quarterback, and those are all

176
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 3: things you did not see with Isaiah Simmons. You just

177
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,839
Speaker 3: didn't see that sort of natural safety playmaking ability out

178
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 3: of that position. So this coaching staff knew what they

179
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 3: were doing when they traded him away and when they

180
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 3: brought in Cavon Wallace, and that was huge. I mean,

181
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 3: of all the waiver claims, of all the additions made

182
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 3: after that initial fifty three was announced, yeah, number twenty

183
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 3: two to me was the biggest.

184
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 1: Overall defensively, three takeaways, six sacks, seven pass the defense

185
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: one play allowed longer than twenty yards, seventy seven total

186
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 1: net yards allowed in the second half, and the defensive line.

187
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 1: We weren't sure what that rotation was going to be,

188
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: but everyone who was active had a hand in that game,

189
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: whether it was a sack or batting down balls at

190
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage even that entire front seven. Four

191
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 1: of the seven passes defense were recorded by the front seven.

192
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: And if you can get a consistent pass rush affect

193
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: the quarterback, then yeah, you can lean and maybe not

194
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: be so worried about your defensive back, your cornerbacks covering

195
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: a Terry McLaurin or a Johan Dotson for two or

196
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: three or four seconds because the quarterback doesn't have that

197
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 1: much time. And that was the big worry going into

198
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: this week and this season. How do you defend or

199
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: how do you stop the quarterback from just sitting there

200
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: in the pocket like we saw in the preseason game

201
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 1: when Patrick Mahomes basically could do whatever he wanted against

202
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: the car.

203
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 3: And again, sort of like the outside linebacker spot, you

204
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 3: don't have a first rounder sitting in there well LJ.

205
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 3: Collier in particular, but you have a rotation much like

206
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 3: the outside linebacker. So whether it was Carlos Watkins whose

207
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 3: name got called a lot, Jonathan Ledbetter ended up with

208
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 3: a half dozen tackles as a defensive lineman, wolf and

209
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 3: Pash called his name out a lot. You know, you

210
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 3: saw LJ. Collier and Kevin Strong was in there quite

211
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 3: a bit, so you're keeping those guys f you're bringing

212
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 3: him them in in waves, you're going series to series,

213
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 3: and once again they're competing internally as well as against

214
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 3: the opposing offensive line. And at least that's the philosophy

215
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 3: right now. Now someone really continues to stand out. Jonathan

216
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 3: Ledbetter ends up being al a guy who establishes himself

217
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 3: as an absolute starter and a performer who merits that

218
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 3: sort of you know, snap count game in and game out. Okay,

219
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 3: but until then, Nick Rowls, I think is just gonna

220
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 3: keep everyone fresh. And what did Jonathan Gannon tell us

221
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 3: during the preseason said, if you're going to get a

222
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 3: uniform on game day, you're gonna play, and true to

223
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 3: his word, that that really stood. Especially that front seven.

224
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 3: They really honored that mantra.

225
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: No doubt it was Budda Baker, Kee, tre Clark, Kaiser White,

226
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: Marco Wilson. Those were the four players on defense that

227
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: played every single snap. Jalen Thompson missed one snap on defense.

228
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: But then you saw that rotation defensively and keeping guys

229
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 1: from to that offense and the offensive coaching staff can't

230
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: get a beat on what Rowlis wants to do.

231
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 2: And I didn't.

232
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: I'd have to go back and Rewatch. But I know

233
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: Wolf likes to talk about, okay, what constitutes a blitz,

234
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 1: And I don't know how many times we actually saw

235
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 1: more than five Cardinal defenders rush the quarterback. Because if

236
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: you can consistently do it with three or four, now

237
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you've got seven, six extra guys

238
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: on the back.

239
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 3: End, no doubt. And let's if you want to talk

240
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,839
Speaker 3: about the defense, let's go back to early in the

241
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 3: game in the Kaiser White flag, because that was about

242
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 3: ten yards away from me, right on the Cardinals sideline.

243
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 3: And man, that got physical, right, I mean a root at,

244
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 3: a twoting, a womping, and a stomping. And there's Kaiser

245
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 3: White and he's got beef with Washington because he's played

246
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 3: him twice a year during his seasons with the Eagles,

247
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 3: and they know each other very well. But it's what

248
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 3: that play said, and you know what it said to me.

249
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 3: Going back to Week eighteen of last year, James Connor

250
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 3: at his locker one final game to close out that

251
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 3: season at the forty nine Ers, and someone asked James

252
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 3: Conner what are you playing for? And his answer was,

253
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:13,520
Speaker 3: and I quote some respect. So are the Cardinals gonna

254
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 3: be necessarily making a playoff run this year? That would

255
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 3: defy a lot of doubters if they did, but the

256
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 3: most definitely, at least based on Game one, they're playing

257
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 3: for respect and they're not going to go out there

258
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 3: and tay and lower themselves to the expectations that have

259
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 3: been put out by others nationally. So if there's an

260
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 3: expectation by the opponent that this is just going to

261
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 3: be a walkthrough and this is gonna be semi preseason,

262
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 3: I think the Cardinals early in that game delivered a message, no, no,

263
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,679
Speaker 3: there will be a game. You know, we may not

264
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 3: win this game, but we're certainly not going to get

265
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,319
Speaker 3: punked out here physically.

266
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: I can accept that the kaiser Y penalty, the Jalen

267
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: Thompson penalty both were the same. Lowering the head to

268
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: initiate forcible contact is what it's officially called. I can

269
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 1: understand that. I'll accept it as long as we don't

270
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: see it this week, next week, the next month. Because

271
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: and I'll give gannon credit postgame, because he's talked about

272
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 1: being violent, being aggressive, his players took it to heart.

273
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 1: Yet at the same time, you have to be smart

274
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 1: because those were legit penalties. You have to be smart.

275
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: But if there was a message, and maybe it was

276
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: because it's Kaizier White, former Philadelphia Eagle, hey watch me,

277
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 1: learn from me, follow my lead. Okay, I don't want

278
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 1: to see it ever again.

279
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 3: I think there were a couple other mitigating circumstances. It

280
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 3: was Week one. They're trying to send a message, right,

281
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 3: you're gonna you're gonna get a little emphasis points of

282
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 3: emphasis from the officials. It was early in that game.

283
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 3: They didn't want to let it get out of hand.

284
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 3: To Jonathan Gannon's point when he said it's on him,

285
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 3: I wonder if he's also referring to the fact that

286
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 3: he's used the phrase violent football a lot. The tweet

287
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 3: went out with the video killers, so that old narrative

288
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 3: is out there. Maybe that's in part what Jonathan Gannon

289
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 3: was referring to. You can't tell me that officiating crew

290
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 3: wasn't well aware of everything that we just cited, and

291
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 3: so they tried to get a handle on it early,

292
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 3: and then combined with the fact that Kaiser White hit

293
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 3: the quarterback and we know how it works in reality

294
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 3: in the NFL, dal shalt not hit the quarterback too hard.

295
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 3: If you do, even if it's clean, you will get

296
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 3: flagged up. And that's what happened. All right, you bring

297
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 3: up the quarterback. Let's talk about the Cardinals quarterback Josh

298
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 3: Dobbs making his debut. We get the confirmation pregame because

299
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 3: he's taking first team snaps with Yell to Froholds. And

300
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 3: I'll say this, as good as the defense played is

301
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 3: about as bad as the offense performed, at least to me,

302
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 3: because it was not good. A lot of the times

303
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 3: sustained drives were not there, settling for field goals rather

304
00:15:56,160 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 3: than touchdowns in the red zone and just the I

305
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 3: wouldn't say bad penalties, but when penalties occurred, and there

306
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,359
Speaker 3: were nine which were too many, but the two offensive

307
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 3: penalties in the second half, Trey McBride false start, a

308
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 3: second and five becomes a second and ten, and that

309
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 3: drive stalls Will Hernandez ineligible man downfield, negating Jeff Swayiam's

310
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 3: sixteen yard catch and run that would have put the

311
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 3: ball at the Washington thirty nine. That play ends in

312
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 3: a fumble. So there were things that cost the Cardinals

313
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 3: as far as keeping the offense on the field but overall,

314
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 3: Dobbs has to be better, especially if you want him

315
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 3: to be your guy until Kyler comes back. Gotta be

316
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 3: able to move the.

317
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 1: Ball up and down the field, got to protect the football.

318
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: Three turnovers or to say, three fumbles, two lost fumbles.

319
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: And again it's week one. He's been here two weeks.

320
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: So as I said with Kaiser White, I'll give you

321
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: a pass here, but you better be better week two.

322
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 3: He looked better when he was on the move at

323
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 3: the end of the first half when he had those

324
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 3: two straight completions to Trey McBride. Those were both sprint outs, rollouts,

325
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,439
Speaker 3: naked boots. He was on the move and he just

326
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 3: looked more comfortable and the accuracy was better. He hit

327
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 3: Trey McBride in stride right between the numbers on both.

328
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,439
Speaker 3: There was a ten yard and a thirteen yard in

329
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 3: that sequence, so that was interesting. I thought he looked

330
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 3: better in that sort of usage than just standing tall

331
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 3: in the pocket, where he can tend to have a

332
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 3: little bit longer wind up. The accuracy obviously isn't always there.

333
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 3: The downfield passing game definitely wasn't there. What they have

334
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 3: one pass completion of fifteen air yards or more in

335
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,239
Speaker 3: the game. So that was lacking. But at the same time,

336
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:48,399
Speaker 3: the game plan and talking to some people you know,

337
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,199
Speaker 3: to a large degree, was Okay, look, they have this

338
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 3: world class defensive line and these are big dudes who

339
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 3: loved a Bowl rush. So here's what we're gonna do.

340
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 3: We're gonna get him on the move horizontally, We're gonna

341
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,120
Speaker 3: go sideline to sideline. That's why at times you saw

342
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 3: a lot of the shotgun, you saw a lot of

343
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 3: the bubble screens. You saw them working up and down

344
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage laterally because they were trying to

345
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 3: get those guys on the move, where them out Jonathan

346
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 3: Allen Doran paying Montest sweat and then hopefully in the

347
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 3: second half would pay off. And for a while that

348
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 3: game plan was working, and then you had the two

349
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 3: fateful fumbles in the second half, which were very decisive,

350
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 3: But until then that was the thinking and I thought

351
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 3: it was paying off. Then again you saw Jonathan Allen

352
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,120
Speaker 3: Deron paying and then Montest sweat. They also they also

353
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 3: amped up their game in that third quarter. They made

354
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,919
Speaker 3: a few second half adjustments. Cardinals had less than one

355
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 3: hundred yards total offense in the second half, only three points.

356
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 3: Obviously some of that was because of the turnovers, but

357
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 3: that was the thinking. And so now you're like, Okay,

358
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 3: if Josh Dobbs lives up to what he told the

359
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 3: media after the game where he says, quote, I think

360
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 3: a huge jump is in store, I can definitely make

361
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 3: a huge jump and expect to make a huge jump,

362
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 3: especially situationally. All right, but if he doesn't and you

363
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 3: get to halftime of this Giants game, I'm just know

364
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 3: where you're going. I'm just saying, if you get to

365
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,360
Speaker 3: have time in this Giants game and you have three

366
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 3: first downs and you have one field goal, what do

367
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 3: you do if you're the Arizona Cardinals. Now, plausibly you

368
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 3: could put in Clayton Tune in the second half. I'm

369
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 3: not saying it's gonna make a world a difference. So

370
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 3: it's gonna be night and day, black and white. What

371
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,919
Speaker 3: I am saying you could do it looking for a spark,

372
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 3: a catalyst to see what you have in Clayton Tune

373
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 3: and then viably just stick with Josh Doabbs next week

374
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 3: as your starter. It was just okay, second we went

375
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 3: to the bullpen for the second half, you can get

376
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 3: away with that doesn't mean he's never gonna start again.

377
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 3: If you were to do that, it's at some point

378
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 3: against the Giants.

379
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 1: The Cardinals Cover two just morph into Cardinal talk because

380
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 1: wouldn't you know it, Paul myself, Ken Summers that you

381
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: open up the phone lines after that, Yeah, and immediately

382
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: Josh Dobbs, Okay, it's why isn't Clayton Tune playing? Why

383
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:00,919
Speaker 1: did we trade or why did we get rid of

384
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: cult McCoy's Okay, Well, that discussion you can't have because

385
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: there was no discussion of that when the initial news

386
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: was released. But I understand why that is a question.

387
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: And I'm curious now. By the way, I am one

388
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 1: hundred percent behind Josh Dobbs being the starter at week

389
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: two and being the starter until Kyler comes back. I

390
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: don't think you part with a fifth round draft pick

391
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 1: and then after one game, as bad as it was

392
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: at times, you pull the trigger and go with your backup.

393
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: Because if that was the thinking, why why not just

394
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: play Clayton Tune out of the gate and you keep

395
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,159
Speaker 1: that fifth round pick and you have Colt McCoy or

396
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 1: Jeff driscoll or David Blau as your backup. So that

397
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,439
Speaker 1: that's not where I'm heading. I'm curious though, if we

398
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 1: get the game that Jonathan Gannon played last week with

399
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 1: the media this week and maybe until Kyler comes back,

400
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 1: because you know, it's gonna get asked Monday, it's gonna

401
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 1: get asked Wednesday, it's gonna get asked Friday. When Gannon

402
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 1: addressed to the media, who is your starter? Does he

403
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 1: make an announcement or say we'll see it's part of

404
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:11,200
Speaker 1: the plan, because I do think Dobbs needs that the

405
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,239
Speaker 1: players in the locker room will know what's going on,

406
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: but to quiet the noise around this team locally, especially locally,

407
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: I think Dobbs needs that. I think that that not

408
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: of approval, if you will he's my quarterback into discussion.

409
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 3: Well, here's the thing. Can you continue to avoid the

410
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 3: quarterback question and make it a question all the way

411
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 3: up to kick off of week two without it becoming

412
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 3: a certified distraction? So now if the media is in

413
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 3: there and asking all the pesky little questions in the

414
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 3: locker room, jermeysninshtimes, you know, and then it'd be morphs

415
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,880
Speaker 3: into not whether he is going to be the starting QB,

416
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 3: but does he deserve to be the starting QB. So

417
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 3: that could be a fire that goes from one alarm

418
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 3: to two alarm to four alarm by the time you

419
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,480
Speaker 3: get Friday, and you know, it could become somewhat of

420
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 3: a distract. We'll see what the head coach decides. I

421
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 3: hadn't really thought about it, but you're right, there's no

422
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 3: absolute certainty that he is going to answer that question

423
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 3: anytime soon, at least to begin the week. If it

424
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 3: was a competitive advantage quote unquote last week, then why

425
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 3: couldn't it be deemed as such this week going against

426
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 3: the Giants. All you know is zach Ertz after the

427
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 3: game said, and I'm quoting now, we're learning together. We've

428
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 3: only been together for two weeks. So obviously that's pointing

429
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 3: to Dobbs. This should be the worst performance we have

430
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 3: as an offense. Okay, and you know what, you might

431
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 3: have played the best defensive front you'll see all year.

432
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 2: Now.

433
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 3: The Niners might have something to say about that. With

434
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 3: Nick Bosa and Javon Hargrave, Dallas might have something to

435
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 3: say that they are really deep in the trenches along

436
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 3: that defensive line. Look what they just did in Jack

437
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 3: stopping the New York Giants. But yeah, that could be

438
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:53,400
Speaker 3: the toughest test the Cardinals offensive line has all year

439
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 3: long going again, even minus Chase Young. And yes, Chase

440
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 3: Young is a talent, but he's the fourth best defensive

441
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 3: lineman at this point on that commander's roster.

442
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: And I think what you said earlier about that front

443
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: four and the game plan going in, we didn't see

444
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 1: a lot of that downfield passing game because you can't

445
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: really do that against this defensive front. The game plan

446
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 1: initially early was to utilize the speed on the outside.

447
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: The top two offensive plays the end a round by

448
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown and the bubble screen the wheel route to

449
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: ron Dell Moore. Those two plays accounted for sixty yards.

450
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:29,159
Speaker 2: Wow.

451
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: The next fifty six plays run totaled one hundred and

452
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: fifty yards. Wow. So it worked early and then why

453
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: didn't it continue to work? And again credit Ron Rivera

454
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: and the Washington staff for changing things. But then the

455
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,120
Speaker 1: run game, James Connor I thought needed to get more

456
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: carries for whatever reason. Whenever Connor came out for a breather,

457
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: keyanta Ingram Companies comes in and his first four rushing

458
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: attempts he's getting losing yards. Yeah, major yards. And that

459
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 1: was the other thing, the number of negative plays. You

460
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 1: start feeling a little bit of momentum things are going

461
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,199
Speaker 1: while on a driving in there as a sack or

462
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,720
Speaker 1: a play that loses a yard or to fourteen of

463
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: the fifty eight offensive plays lost yards, that's almost a

464
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: quarter of your offense going backwards.

465
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 3: That's normally a stat we don't cite. So I'm trying

466
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,919
Speaker 3: to have some perspective on that. But the fact we

467
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 3: don't cite that very often tells me that's a huge number.

468
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,879
Speaker 3: Twenty five percent has to be a huge number historically,

469
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:35,199
Speaker 3: game in and game out. So what was responsible for that?

470
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 3: Was there less attention on trying to go straight ahead

471
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 3: as you mentioned, and we talked about trying to go

472
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 3: sideline to sideline and wear out that front. Is that

473
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 3: just kudos to the Washington defensive line for all those

474
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 3: tackles for loss. I'm not exactly sure. I do know

475
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 3: the Cardinals struggled on third down. They were only four

476
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 3: or fourteen red zone obviously, was a problem that zach

477
00:24:55,920 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 3: Ertz oh Man, that was a touchdown, zach Ertz told them,

478
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 3: meaning afterwards, yeah, that's a catch I gotta make. Was

479
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 3: it the most catchable ball, absolutely not. That's something I

480
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,880
Speaker 3: don't know if Josh Dobbs can get better at from

481
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,360
Speaker 3: week one to week two. When he says I think

482
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 3: a huge jump is in store, I'm just gonna surmise

483
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 3: that the receivers would probably be in favor of a

484
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 3: little more catchable ball on target a little bit. I

485
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 3: think he has enough arm talent, enough arm strength. Is

486
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 3: the accuracy there? For example, Crag, if you did go

487
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 3: to Clayton Tune, I think there would be better accuracy,

488
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:35,440
Speaker 3: just saying, but you would obviously lose all the experience

489
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 3: that Josh Dobbs has. And so when you look at

490
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 3: what happened in that game, that was really instrumental, critical

491
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 3: and in ultimately pivotal. So the two fumbles lost fumbles

492
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 3: he caused, he cited one as the wet ball. Not

493
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,360
Speaker 3: going to have that problem at home against the Giants.

494
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,640
Speaker 3: Otherwise he didn't turn the ball over, although you could

495
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 3: argue that there were three passes yes, that easily could

496
00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 3: have been picked off. So how do you calculate that?

497
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 3: How does that figure into the equation the decision making?

498
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 3: Like you, I fully expect Josh Dods to be the

499
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 3: starter against the Giants, but you are monitoring, monitor and

500
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 3: once again you're a brand new head coach and the

501
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 3: only entity you have to answer to is your own mockerum.

502
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,959
Speaker 3: And if Josh Dobbs puts an inferior product out out

503
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 3: on that field for the first half against the Giants,

504
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 3: three quarters against the Giants, and it's a tight game,

505
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,199
Speaker 3: Like any other position on the team, it's subject to

506
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 3: another player coming in if you haven't earned that playing time.

507
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 3: So it's definitely merit's watching. Put it that way.

508
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: I'll agree with that. I just don't think you make

509
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 1: that decision to change a quarterback this early in the process,

510
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 1: but I certainly understand it. It is a viable conversation

511
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,880
Speaker 1: to have. It's a viable question to ask. I do

512
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 1: hope though, that with another week of practice and those

513
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: high throws now you figure out, Okay, zach Ertz, is

514
00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 1: it because of the acl mcl injury, doesn't quite have

515
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 1: the jumping ability just yet? Or that deep throw to

516
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 1: Michael Wilson. Was it an overthrow? Oh, excuse me, it

517
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,199
Speaker 1: wasn't an overthrow, but it was thrown short. Was that

518
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 1: a back shoulder throw or was that just a lack

519
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 1: of reps to a rookie out there. But as you mentioned,

520
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:20,120
Speaker 1: anytime a receiver gets two hands on a football, they'll

521
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: always tell you I need to be able to make

522
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 1: that catch.

523
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 3: That's definitely that one of the goal line, zach Ertz.

524
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 3: That was tough that that's that's a catch.

525
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 1: The second one was more catchable than that first one

526
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 1: in the end zone.

527
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 3: It just you know, I was right there, I was

528
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 3: right in front of me, and I can just tell

529
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 3: you the sideline ractor like, oh man, that's that's a catch. Historically,

530
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 3: zach Ertz Pro Bowl tight end makes that that was

531
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 3: a touchdown waiting to happen. At the same time, he

532
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 3: was a little late on the throw. And what did

533
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 3: Jonathan Gannon say after the game? The one thing he

534
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,160
Speaker 3: said that was sort of substantive about Josh Dobbs was quote,

535
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 3: we got to get it out of our hands a

536
00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 3: little quicker. So that was definitely part the equation. Now,

537
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 3: how much of that is because guess what, you're buffering

538
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 3: to use a Josh Rosen term in the offense. How

539
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 3: much of that had to do with the Washington scheme,

540
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 3: I don't know. Remember that was only his third career start,

541
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 3: only his ninth career game action ever for Josh Dobbs,

542
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 3: who's in a seventh season on his six team. So

543
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,239
Speaker 3: it's not like he's the most ultra experienced quarterback in

544
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 3: this league. He's not Colt McCoy in terms of experience

545
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 3: coming in. And with that in mind, you would hope

546
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 3: that this jump, this quote huge jump that Josh Dobbs

547
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 3: cites that he expects in his own play in Week two.

548
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 3: I think a lot of that has to do with

549
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 3: the ball coming out quicker, because you have Dexter Lawrence

550
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 3: and a pretty potent defensive front by the New York Giants,

551
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 3: and there were times where I think the Cardinals offensive

552
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 3: line expected the ball to be away, it wasn't, and

553
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 3: it cost him with quarterback hits and pressure.

554
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: And that might be because the two times that an offensive

555
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: lineman was flagged for being ineligible downfield, that again the

556
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: inexperienced working with the quarterback. Does the ball need to

557
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 1: be out quick? And is that jaw As Jobbs thinking,

558
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 1: because Okay, this is what my read is on this

559
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: particular play. I don't quite know the playbook as well

560
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:10,959
Speaker 1: as I want to, so I'm a little bit slower

561
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 1: in my decision making again, all things to look that

562
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 1: need to get better this coming week. And you talk

563
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 1: about the Giants their defense, well, it's gonna be a

564
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: very angry Giants team that comes into State Farm Stadium

565
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 1: as they get, in your words, Jack stomped by the

566
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys forty to nothing. And then you have the

567
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 1: Cowboys coming to State Farm Stadium the following week. So

568
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: there's not really a quote unquote soft landing for a

569
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 1: rookie to come in to make their first career start

570
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 1: behind center. So that would be something I would also

571
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: consider when you're talking about, Okay, is it time to

572
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: make a change because Kyleler's not quite ready?

573
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 2: All right?

574
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 1: What are we comfortable with that quarterback? And who's that

575
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 1: quarterback facing across from him?

576
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, let me make it clear. I'm not in favor

577
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 3: of starting to Clayton tune against Dallas defensive front, the

578
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 3: Niners defensive front. I'm not. There's no Cincinnati the week

579
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 3: after Aaron Donald and the Rams. You might be looking

580
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 3: all the way to like Week seven, Seattle and that

581
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 3: league worst rush defense from a year ago, and they

582
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 3: didn't look much better yesterday trying to stop cam Akers.

583
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 3: So I'm definitely not in favor of that. The only

584
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 3: time I would be in favor is if the offense

585
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 3: through two or three quarters is really struggling and then

586
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 3: you need a little bit of a boost, bit of

587
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 3: a catalyst against the Giants defensive front. We'll we'll see

588
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 3: how the game plays out. I'll say this, Sam Howe

589
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 3: is the worst quarterback the Cardinals are gonna face. Until

590
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 3: you see Atlanta and Houston on the roster in mid November,

591
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 3: You're gonna run the gamut of some pretty darn good

592
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 3: and least highly paid quarterbacks coming up here, including Danny Dimes,

593
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 3: who looked nothing. I don't know what's going on with

594
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 3: that Giants team and what they put on display out there,

595
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 3: but if it has something to do with Danny Dimes

596
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 3: getting his forty or fifty million per and the Giants

597
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 3: not paying Saquon Barkley in making all that drama, and

598
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 3: if maybe somehow that is divided the locker room in

599
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,719
Speaker 3: some way. I don't know, but they looked like a

600
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 3: show of that playoff team that got a playoff win

601
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 3: a year ago.

602
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: I'll go back to what Jeff Rogers said last week

603
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: going into Week one, and I'm paraphrasing. Week one is

604
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 1: full of surprises, both good and bad. And you look

605
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 1: at the Cardinals defense, that was a surprise in a

606
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: good way. The Giants overall, that was a surprise in

607
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 1: a negative way. And I think in between is where

608
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 1: the Cardinals offense and Josh Dobbs are because as bad

609
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 1: as it looked, there were some moments and again, if

610
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 1: you can stay on the field, convert on third down,

611
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: don't turn the ball over, don't shoot yourself in the

612
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: foot with a penalty. And we see the offense sustain

613
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: a drive that is seven to eight nine plays. I

614
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: think the longest drive was the scoring play to begin

615
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 1: the second half that was eleven plays but only total

616
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: fifty six yards and Matt Prater kicked his third field goal.

617
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 1: You have to be able to move the ball and

618
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 1: get some chunk yards. I want to see some chunk plays,

619
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: and we saw them in the first quarter, but after

620
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 1: the first quarter they were non existent.

621
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 3: Again. I would get Josh Doabbs on the move a lot,

622
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 3: especially in this game where their best defensive lineman by

623
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,959
Speaker 3: far is that interior guy Dexter Lawrence.

624
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 1: Right.

625
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 3: I mean, he is an absolute wrecking ball through the

626
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,719
Speaker 3: a gap, get him out of there. Get Josh Dobbs

627
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 3: on the move. He's very accurate when he's on the

628
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 3: run the boots. He's a very athletic quarterback. He has

629
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 3: he's SEC rushing records as a quarterback along with some

630
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 3: other luminaries like Dak Prescott and Tim Tebow and Johnny Manziel.

631
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 3: You look at SEC history, he's one of the most

632
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 3: productive running quarterbacks. So I think he's just more comfortable

633
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 3: with that, and then maybe that allows him to run

634
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 3: to one side or the other and only have to

635
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 3: scan half the field. You sort of narrow things down,

636
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 3: simplify it for him in some of his reads and

637
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 3: progressions as he's still learning this offense. I'll say this though,

638
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 3: when it comes to surprises in week one, there's one

639
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 3: more Craig Oh boy, and it's something that by the way,

640
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 3: this is radio, so make sure you paint the picture.

641
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 3: So I'm holding to my hand stuffed animal that as

642
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 3: we cleaned out the closets for the young punks at

643
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 3: Cosa Galvic. It's an angry bird and I put a

644
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 3: mini Cardinal's helmet on it, and the yellow beak is

645
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 3: sticking through the face mask. It has a chin strap here, so.

646
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 2: Snap it up.

647
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 3: Every week we're gonna go with the Angry Bird Award,

648
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 3: Craig Grilo. Okay, we've decided that this will honor the

649
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 3: most hilacious play or player. If you go ahead and

650
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 3: you look up the definition of hilatious, it's defined as

651
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 3: exceptionally powerful or violent, remarkably good, extremely difficult. The guy

652
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 3: that fits every one of those checks, every one of

653
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 3: those boxes would be Dennis Gardeck our inaugural winner of

654
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 3: the Angry Bird Award, Craig Grielou as Dennis gard Deck

655
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 3: the bar bearing went out with a couple of sacks,

656
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 3: three quarterback hits. He had the tackle for loss, he

657
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 3: had the force bumble that resulted in the scoop and

658
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,920
Speaker 3: score by Cam Thomas, right Cam. And then he also

659
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 3: had four tackles, and when he hit the strobe, the

660
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 3: entire sideline responded by hitting the strobe as well. It

661
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 3: was almost like some sort of Vegas show where they

662
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 3: all is like line dancing, and so the whole thing

663
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 3: was a site to behold. And for that he gets

664
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 3: our Angry Bird Award, Dennis Gardak after.

665
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: Week one, well deserved. Now the question is are you

666
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,440
Speaker 1: presenting this to Dennis Gardik because if you are, then

667
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 1: we need to get a picture and start posting these

668
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 1: week to week.

669
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:26,279
Speaker 3: I already have Caitlin are very capable professional photographers save

670
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 3: me from my own lack of photography skills. As you

671
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,919
Speaker 3: can see on Twitter, She's gonna take an actual, real

672
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 3: photo of this and we're gonna tweet this out, so

673
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,800
Speaker 3: this will be a social media award, Craig, because quite honestly,

674
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,240
Speaker 3: we don't have the budget to fund eighteen of these. Okay,

675
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 3: so well, we don't have any budget at all. Actually,

676
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 3: I didn't even get permission for this on cover two,

677
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 3: so I don't even know if you're on board with this.

678
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 3: There may not be a week two winner. I'm not

679
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 3: exactly sure, but as of right now, the one and

680
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 3: maybe only winner of the Angry Bird Award is Dennis Gardak.

681
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 1: No, I've got my approval.

682
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:55,279
Speaker 3: I like it.

683
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 1: I'm on board with it. And once again just extending

684
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: the Paul Calvec amongst the Arizona Cardinals content and creative team.

685
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 3: You know, just yet another way to celebrate a Monday

686
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 3: something to you know, alleviate whatever you're feeling on a

687
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 3: Monday coming off the weekend and something. There aren't many

688
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:15,880
Speaker 3: things to look forward to on a Monday. Maybe in

689
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 3: a small and I doing small way, this could be something.

690
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 3: Maybe I like that the Angry Bird Award.

691
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 1: Well, this is now something to look forward to, even

692
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 1: after a loss that we experienced week one. So what

693
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 1: happens one week from today and I think, yeah, this

694
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:33,280
Speaker 1: this might be something.

695
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 3: And no wagering either. I don't want any wagering. I

696
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 3: don't want any betting on who's gonna be the recipient

697
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 3: in the Angry Bird Award. You're not gonna see this

698
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 3: up at the bet MGM sports books. There's no lines

699
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 3: on this, okay, so please, you know, people, just play along.

Speaker 3: add that to your laundry list of complaints at Paul

703
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:57,839
Speaker 3: CALVC right there.

00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,520
