Here's Craig Grilou, 12 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 1: Mike Jarecki and Bertrand Berry. It is always good to 13 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: be doing this show after a win, no matter how 14 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: it looked. Betrain you ever walk off the field after 15 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: a victory thinking, man, we got lucky, or wow, we 16 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: just didn't play well at all? Absolutely not. I I 17 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: walked up to feel feeling like, hey, we gotta win, 18 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: That's all that matters and move on to the next one. 19 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: And of course you always know that deep down you 20 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 1: may have gotten away with one or two plays here 21 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: and there, But for the most part, anytime you're in 22 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 1: the victory in the NFL, you've done a lot of 23 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 1: things right, so you deserve it. And I think I 24 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 1: stole this line from you because I've heard you say 25 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: it's and I don't know if it's originally from you. 26 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: But you never apologize for winning, do you. Oh? Absolutely not. 27 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: It's too hard. You only get sixteen cracks at it, 28 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: and you never want to be a guy that that 29 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 1: looks on the negative side. When you get a win, 30 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: you appreciate that win. You celebrate it as much as 31 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: you can for twenty four hours because the alternative is devastating. 32 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: So you always take them and you just stack them 33 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: in and try to get another one the next time 34 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: you see them up. We say all this, MJ because 35 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,559 Speaker 1: the cardinals thirty three, twenty sixth win over the Philadelphia 36 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: Eagles on Sunday could very well have been a blowout. 37 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: It could very well have been a loss, and the 38 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: Cardinals at the end of the day did what they 39 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: needed to offense, defense and special teams to come away 40 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: with their eighth win of the season. Yeah, and I 41 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: feel like when we're talking on Tuesdays and they're coming 42 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: off a win. We're talking about complimentary football. And you know, 43 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: the Cardinals were able to move the ball down the field, 44 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: and they'll tell you they left points on the field, 45 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: which we've been hearing for a while. And then you 46 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 1: look at the defense, they made stops when they had 47 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,239 Speaker 1: two and then special teams, you know with the fake punt, 48 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: you know, Andy Lee thrown Ezekiel Turner and then what 49 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: they did on the cover junits. So that's complimentary football. 50 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: And again, I think this team has been since the 51 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: losing street. They're focused on just the next game. Let's 52 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: go one and no, And that's kind of what you're 53 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: hearing from the from our zoom meetings. Cardinals jumped out 54 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: to a sixteen nothing lead, the Eagles came all the 55 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: way back, tied it at twenty six all at the 56 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: end of the third quarter, and in the fourth quarter, 57 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: the only score of the half of the Cardinal DeAndre 58 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: Hopkins twenty yard touchdown catch and the Cardinals come away 59 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: with their second straight win. As we take you inside 60 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: the Cardinals locker room post game, heard first time ever 61 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: exclusively asy Cardinals dot Com at Coach Cliff Kingsbury handing 62 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: out the game balls. Game ball send the tone, had 63 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: a block punk and a big catch. It's nice for 64 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: it again. He's helping on every play. DeAndre Hopkins the 65 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: sack machine, Dennis gardack two more and then kay one. Okay, 66 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 1: what hear me on this short week? Play on Saturday. 67 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: We play on Saturday. All right, division game, Sam France, 68 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,119 Speaker 1: come in here. Let's get back on all right early 69 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: and getting ready to go. Focus up this week Kyler 70 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: Murray breaking down the team and the locker room MJ. 71 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: Second straight week we have heard Kingsbury handout game balls 72 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: to offense, defense and special teams. Well, I think they 73 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: all deserved it. And you know, maybe Andy League gets 74 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: a ball. Yeah, but you get the receiver on the 75 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: end of that. Plus turn to the block punt and 76 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: we'll wait to see what who wins the Special Teams 77 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: of the Week award tomorrow. Um. I think Zeke obviously 78 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: put up in numbers, but yeah, I mean just you know, 79 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: we look at you know, playing a complete game, and 80 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: at this point, you know, you just want to play 81 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: meaningful football. And the fact is the Cardinals are eight 82 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: and six and they got two games to go. So 83 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: they're in a good, good spot considering you know what 84 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: we were talking about the last couple of Decembers, complimentary 85 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: football b train and yeah, the offense sometimes there's a 86 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: little bit of a hiccup, so the defense needs to 87 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: step up, but the defense can't get a stop in. 88 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: The offense needs to pick up there. And and then 89 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: of course special teams. I think since that New England game, 90 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: they've just been solid all throughout. Check the bound Susan. 91 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: That's how you're most successful in the NFL. You got 92 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: to have all three phases to show up. In the 93 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, we've seen that from IF Arizona 94 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: Cardinals football team, which is why we've seen the win. 95 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: And I think at this stage in the season, all 96 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: three spaces, all three factors of the game have to 97 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: step up in order to get these hard earned wins 98 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 1: because everybody's thinking the same thing, is jockeying for a position. 99 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: You can't afford to let one of these slip away. 100 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 1: If you have a game where you feel like you're 101 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: in pretty good control of it, you want to make 102 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 1: sure that you get out of there with more points 103 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: on the scoreboards than the other team. And really that's 104 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: all that matters when it's all said and done. But 105 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: love the fact that this has been a balanced effort 106 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: by all three phases, and all the players on that 107 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: field had to feel good walking off knowing that they 108 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: had contributions towards the win. Offensively, Kyler Murray of the 109 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: story with a career high four hundred and six passing yards. 110 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,280 Speaker 1: He totaled four touchdowns, completed seventy five percent of his passes. 111 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: That on a loan is a great day. Although there 112 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: were some other issues, an interest option, a lost fumball, 113 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: and that is kind of where Murray went after the ball. 114 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: Game started off pretty hot. Unfortunately. You know, the the 115 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 1: interception really had me. Uh, you know, I obviously let 116 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 1: it go. Um, but um, you know, just as far 117 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: as throwing the interception and the timing of the you know, 118 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: and in that moment where we're about to be able 119 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: to put the game away, can't do that's not that's 120 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: not playoff playoff football. We had a couple of chances 121 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: in the red zone and we didn't, you know, we 122 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: didn't finish. Um, we got to be better, you know, 123 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: I think we had we had a couple of chances 124 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: to put that game away, yeah twice, and the red 125 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 1: zone the Cardinals turned the ball over. DeAndre Hopkins also 126 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: lost a fumble. The two biggest offensive players had the 127 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: biggest offensive days betran and they also were the biggest 128 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: liabilities for a stretch there in that game on Sunday. Yeah, 129 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: it's always tough when you turned the ball over, and 130 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: I think this team was really fortunate to lose a 131 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: turnover battle and still come out of there with the win. 132 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: It just showed how well they played throughout the course 133 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: of that game. And you're gonna have lows, and you 134 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: gotta get the Philadelphia Eagles some if they made some plays. 135 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: They've got players two on their side of the ball, 136 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: but you can't have stuff inflicted wounds and usually those 137 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: come back to bite you. But because they got out 138 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: to the lead and they had to push him, they 139 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: were able to overcome those turnovers and ultimately get to win. 140 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: And that's just a testament to how this team is 141 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: playing right now and hopefully they can finish these last 142 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: two games off the right way. You know, Kyler Murray 143 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: was able to protect the ball last year. You know, 144 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: you can lose a lot of fumbles, but you know, 145 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: ball security has been an issue with Hopkins, and Murray 146 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: didn't come back to haunt them. As Cliff points out, 147 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: if you go minus three in the turnover category, eighty 148 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: percent chance of losing. Cardinals picked up their third win 149 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: with a three turnover margin. If you go back the 150 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: last twenty years, and this is a stats from the 151 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals media relations department, might come give it up 152 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: for stat wiz. Cardinals are now three and forty in 153 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: games in which they had a turnover margin of minus 154 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: three or greater since two thousand and one. You turn 155 00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: the ball over, you're just not going to win a 156 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: lot of golf ball games. And the Cardinals did on 157 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: Sunday win because they were able to overcome that and 158 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: earlier in the season maybe they weren't able to overcome 159 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: those early mistakes and that is why it was a 160 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: closer game than it probably should have been. Here's DeAndre Hopkins. 161 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: We know we could have put those guys away earlier, 162 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,679 Speaker 1: and that's something that I feel like us as a team, 163 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: you know, has been dealing with the whole year. Kylie. 164 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: You know, if you know him, he holds itself to 165 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: a high standard to where you know he beats itself 166 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: up man on a lot of stuff, and I feel 167 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: like that's something that we all got to work on, 168 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: you know, even myself. You know, when I don't get 169 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: the ball in a crucial situations, is moving on past that? 170 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 1: Sometimes I think we might let that kind of stick 171 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: in our head. Once we get past that and take 172 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 1: that next step, man, it's gonna be hard to beat us. 173 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: Short term memory. We talk about it be trained with 174 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: players in the secondary corner safeties. Yeah, you're gonna get beats. 175 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: An offensive lineman, you're going to get beats. Yet you 176 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: have to put it aside. And I think that was 177 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: important right there to hear it from Hopkins that it 178 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: also applies to quarterbacks and wide receivers, no doubt. And 179 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: when you're a professional, there's going to be bad plays, 180 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: and you have to understand that the other side gets 181 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: paid too, and so there's gonna be plays made on 182 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: both sides of the ball. You just got to make 183 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: more than the team that you're facing on a given 184 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 1: game day. So I love the fact that they don't 185 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: settle for just winning. You want to be consistent because 186 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: you know, in a game like Sunday, it didn't cost 187 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: you a win, but you know, if you continue to 188 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: do those things, it could ultimately cost you. In these 189 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: last two games against division opponents, and you're still fighting 190 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: for that playoff spot, You're still trying to hold off 191 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: a few teams and maybe advance your own standing. You 192 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 1: can ill afford to turn the ball over and give 193 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: another team extra possessions, you know, throughout the season. You know, 194 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray's people judge him on his press conferences, but 195 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: I like what I'm hearing from him. He knows that 196 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 1: they love some plays on the field. He knows he 197 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 1: took responsibility for the interception, But I like what he's 198 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: saying now. And maybe he's just more comfortable. And we 199 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: all know when you win, you know, it's when you lose, 200 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: everyone starting to point the finger, or you overlook things, 201 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: or maybe you're not paying attention to detail. But I 202 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: kind of like what he's saying in these press conference. 203 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: So you can see he's growing up and he's got 204 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 1: a long ways to go, but at least he knows. 205 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: You know, by winning, you still have to play a 206 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: lot better, especially if you want to get into postseason. 207 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: By the way we've heard from Kyler Murray, DeAndre Hopkins 208 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: here in this segment, congratulations but both to both of 209 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: those players named to the Pro Bowl team. Hopkins named 210 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: a starter, Murray one of three quarterbacks selected in the NFC, 211 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: joining Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson. A third Pro Bowler 212 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: named Buddha Baker for the second straight year as a safety, 213 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: third time overall, first time was a special teamer. So 214 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: the Cardinals getting three Pro Bowlers. There is no Pro 215 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: Bowl game. It is going to be held virtually that 216 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: will come up in January. So the tip of the 217 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 1: cap to Hopkins, Murray, and Buddha Baker. As far as 218 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 1: the Cardinals and getting the win on Sunday again thirty three, 219 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: twenty six the final, their second straight win. They remain 220 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 1: the number seventh seed in the NFC, And once again 221 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: we're talking about complimentary football, and we can't forget about 222 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: the defense. Here's Jordan Hicks. In the course of the season, 223 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: there's always gonna be games like this. As a team 224 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,439 Speaker 1: trying to do what we're doing and trying to get 225 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: to where we're trying to get. You've got to be 226 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 1: able to pull these type of games out. So I'm 227 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: proud of our guys, you know, for fighting and not quitting. 228 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: You know, obviously we had big lead at the beginning. 229 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: We were able to pull it out, and I know, 230 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: especially as a defense, it feels good to finish it 231 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: the way we did. Yeah, they finished b trained with 232 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: the defense on the field on Sunday, coming up with 233 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 1: three straight stops of the Eagles, two after the Cardinals 234 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 1: had taken that thirty three twenty six lead. And you 235 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: just have to you have to do just enough. It's 236 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: not about winning in grand fashion and blowing a team out. 237 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 1: Bobos type of games rarely happen once you get to December. 238 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: The weather's chained, and guys are sore and tired, and 239 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 1: teams pretty much know what the other team is and 240 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: so there's game plans that are appropriate for those particular matchups. 241 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: So I don't anticipate there being a lot of blowouts. 242 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: You've seen some, but for the most part, that's how 243 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: games are gonna go, and and that's what's exciting, and 244 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: the fact that this defense was able to step up 245 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: and knock the ball down. And of course that's one 246 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: of those age old adages where you're in it, you 247 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 1: get a jump ball. As a defensive back, you're always 248 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: taught to just knock it down, and the fact that 249 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: the Eagles didn't come up with those balls, especially the 250 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: last two throws at the end of the game, is 251 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: just a testament to those guys taking the coaching and 252 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 1: applying it to the field, and as long as they 253 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: can do that, they're going to be successful more times 254 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,719 Speaker 1: than enough. You know, it was impressive. Is who was 255 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: on the field at that time. Zach Allen probably had 256 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: his career game. You know, the eleven tackles. You had 257 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: a couple of tackle for losses which also had Lucky 258 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: Foe two, and you had Richard Lawrence. I mean, these 259 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: are two rookies and you get to this point in year, 260 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,839 Speaker 1: they're not rookies anymore. But you know, you got to 261 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: give Vans a lot of credit. I mean, you lose 262 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: Corey Peters, you lose Jordan Phillips, those are two starters 263 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: on your d line. Yeah, a lot of young talents 264 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: to close out that game.

Well, I answer the question, do they 271 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: turn the corner as far as back to pack performances 272 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: of what we can expect the rest of the year. 273 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: That's next here on the Arizona Cardinals. Right, you know, network, 274 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: snap it to Murray's gonna keep me running. Right, cuts left, 275 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: breaks a tack left the five and end of the 276 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: end zone for the touchdown. That's Kyler Murray, right down, 277 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: Candy Cane Waite, baby hurry and trouble in the pocket, 278 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:43,680 Speaker 1: rolls to the left. Now throws left side of the 279 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: end zone, and oh my goodness, Larry Fitzcarrol caught it 280 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: for a touchdown, his first touchdown of the year, and 281 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: it's vintage fits. Shot gun snapped to Murray, drops back 282 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: to throw fire's left side. Hopkins. DeAndre Hopkins puts his 283 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 1: hands up and he catches it, and it's a touchdown. 284 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: I have no idea how he caught that fall. The 285 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: sickle is how he caught that football. When you need 286 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 1: a play, you go to the best. DeAndre Hopkins with 287 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 1: a phenomenal catch against good coverage I don't know if 288 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: there's anybody else in the NFL who makes that catch. Oh, 289 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: maybe his teammate Larry Fitzgerald. I don't think there's any 290 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: question that fits. And DeAndrea Hopkins have two of the 291 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: best or I should say four of the best hands 292 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: in the entire NFL, and certainly their body control and 293 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: the craft. They work at it every single day in 294 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: practice and in the offseason. Larry Fitzgerald with his first 295 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: touchdown catch of the season, fifteen yard reception that made 296 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: it twenty six to fourteen with two thirteen to go 297 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: in the second quarter, and then the Hopkins reception the 298 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: game winner, a twenty yard throw from Kyle Murray and 299 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: the Cardinals win at thirty three to twenty six. All Right, 300 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: be trying to gonna put you on the spot. You 301 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: were teammates with Larry Fitzgerald. You have watched DeAndre Hopkins 302 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 1: in a Cardinals uniform. Who has better hands and who 303 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: had a better touchdown grab on Sunday. You're really gonna 304 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: do that to me, You're saying me on that Okay, 305 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: in that situation, I'm always going to default to the 306 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: guy that I actually played with. I'm gonna go with 307 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: the guy that actually gotten me with him two minute, 308 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: two and a half minutes away from a Super Bowl championship. 309 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Larry Fitzgerald. I've seen more of 310 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: his career, seventeen years of work and great catches every 311 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: single year, So by default that's my guys. No, no, 312 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: this too too, My man be hopped. I haven't had 313 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: the pleasure yet, but I'm sure I will. And but 314 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: for Fitch that that's my brother. I'm not going against 315 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: my brother and that gard that we've built over the years. 316 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: I must have watched both catches and the Fits one 317 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: in particular. I'm just because I don't know if fitz 318 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: even saw the football. There was a split seconds, you know, 319 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: maybe from his vantage point that the defender's arms maybe 320 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: in his way. Yet you see his eyes and they 321 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: never blink, and then all of a sudden, his hands 322 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: are right there and the ball falls into his hands 323 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: and then he falls backwards into the end zone for 324 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 1: a touchdown. There are very few players period, in the 325 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: history of the game that are able to do what 326 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald does. Yeah, I mean, you look at Fits. 327 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: I mean the fact is that he was able to 328 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: catch the ball with his hands, which you know, that's 329 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: why he's going to be a Hall of Famer because 330 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: he's able to bring the ball in why the guy 331 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: is still you know, facing him, and then he's able 332 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: to get his buttocks down so he's in bounds there. 333 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean this well awareness now when it 334 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: comes to hop I've been thoroughly impressed with him this year. 335 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy's a beast, and he has the 336 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: Kennedy ability to locate the football and he has the 337 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: ability to put his position in his body at the catchpoint. 338 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: And that's something we watched over years for Larry Fitzgerald. 339 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: So he was everything they told us. I mean, obviously 340 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: he's one of the top three receivers in football, but 341 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 1: you could see why the Cardinals decided to make that 342 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: trade and make him one of the highest pay wide 343 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: receivers in football. Hard to believe it took fifteen weeks 344 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: or fits to get his first touchdown. Hopkins now has 345 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 1: six on the season. Head coach Cliff Kingsbury on his 346 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: two playmakers, Yeah, Kyler, it talks about it this week 347 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: that he was going to get him one. So he 348 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: kind of put it into the universe and made it happen, 349 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: but that catch was phenomenal. You know, last week he's 350 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: talking to Chase and he was telling me Larry didn't 351 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: have a touchdown, and I was just kind of like, why, 352 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: Like are you serious? Obviously, you know, I wasn't trying 353 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: to force him the ball to there anything like that, 354 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: but seeing him one on one just gave him a 355 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: chance and he made obviously an incredible catch. Kyler Murray 356 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: knows that if you just throw it in the vicinity 357 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: in the area. It wasn't a force throw. Fitz was open, 358 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: there was some good coverage. But nine times out of ten, 359 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: Fits is gonna make that catch or it's going to 360 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 1: be incomplete because he's not gonna make the defender get 361 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 1: the ball. Yeah, I mean, you know the fact that 362 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: you know he's gonna throw the open guy, get that. 363 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: But it shouldn't never taken this long to get a touchdown. 364 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: We know that he's not targeted as much. But I 365 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: like the way the game started. They got him involved 366 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 1: early at that fifty or fifteen yard catch, and then 367 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: he had Hopkins involved it early. Clearly they got off 368 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 1: to a good start. But you know, good things are 369 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: gonna happen when you throw the ball to number eleven. 370 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 1: We talked about Fits and Hopkins their hands. Well, Kingsbury 371 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,439 Speaker 1: was asked about it as well on Sunday. You know, 372 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: you see him every day in practice, two of the 373 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: best ever. When you're talking about hands, you put them 374 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: up against anybody. Those two guys, you just get it 375 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 1: close and they make incredible catches all day, every day, 376 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: one handed whatever, whether it's warming up or not. So 377 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: we see it every day, but it's it's fun when 378 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: it happens. On game day, Hopkins finished with nine catches 379 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty nine yards, and what I like 380 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: betrain was seven of his nine receptions gained first downs 381 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 1: and we also saw him run after the catch. There 382 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 1: hasn't been many yack yards this season, or at least 383 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 1: lately from number ten, but Hopkins in space, he makes 384 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 1: defenders miss, and he doesn't have great speed, but he 385 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: has elusive speed. He does what he needs to do 386 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 1: in order to be effective. And the thing that I 387 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: just can't figure out is how is he sold wide 388 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: open some of those throws. We know that the hop 389 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: is one of the best receivers in the game, but 390 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: if you're the Philadelphia Eagle secondary how in the world 391 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 1: do you lose number ten and coverage that that makes 392 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: no sense, And for him to continue to get open, 393 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: and it's not just that ease. We've seen him be 394 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,920 Speaker 1: wide open against a lot of different teams. And how 395 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: that is possible, I have no idea, because I'm telling 396 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: you right now, if I'm a defensive coordinator, the first 397 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: thing I'm trying to do is figure out how to 398 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: bracket number ten and make sure that he does not 399 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: beat me, because you know, if he gets the ball 400 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: in his hands, he is going to wreck your game plan, 401 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: whatever that is. And time after time you continue to 402 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 1: see him eight catches, nine catches over one hundred thirty 403 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 1: forty fifty yards receiving. I just don't get it. But 404 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 1: that's a testament to the hops, the fact that he's 405 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: such a professional. He runs precise routes and he knows 406 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: what to do after he gets the ball in his hands, 407 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: as we saw evidence in that game against Philly. Yeah, 408 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: if you go back to that three game losing straight, 409 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: you know, all of a sudden, since then, it's only 410 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: been two games, and I think we're gonna see it 411 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: the rest of the season and hopefully the postseason. Is 412 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: they're moving them around. I mean, he caught a slant pass, 413 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: and you know I feel about those with Jerry Rice 414 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: and John Taylor. I mean Joe Montana or Steve Young 415 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: would throw nine yards slant and they'd be off to 416 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: the races. I mean, he racked up one hundred and 417 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: seven of US one hundred and sixty nine receiving yards 418 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,920 Speaker 1: on three catches alone, and he's getting so they're moving 419 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,239 Speaker 1: them around. He's not just lining up on the land 420 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: on the left side, and we're seeing more spacing. We're 421 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: seeing Kyler stuff up in the pockets. So they made 422 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: some adjustments based on that three game losing stream. The 423 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: chunk plays returned on Sunday against the Eagles. The Cardinals 424 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: had a season past eight passing plays of twenty or 425 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 1: more yards, and to your point, MJA three of forty 426 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: or more yards, including two by DeAndre Hopkins. The touchdown, though, 427 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: was a twenty yard catch from Kyle the Murray. Hopkins 428 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 1: asked when he knew it was going to be a touchdown? DeAndre, 429 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 1: the way you were holding it and falling on that touchdown, 430 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: it looked like you already knew that you at it. 431 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: At what point in the plane. Did you know like 432 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 1: these these fingers touched him? Hopkins post game is probably 433 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: best thing so far that I've heard him say, was 434 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: there's that and then of course better catched by That 435 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 1: will be the best quotes of the season, at least 436 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 1: in Heil Murray. Yes, so it's it's always it's always fun, 437 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: it's always entertaining. You don't exactly know what you're gonna 438 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 1: get out of DeAndre Hopkins. He's very insightful. But when 439 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: it comes to the NFL and when it comes to 440 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: catches in front of defenders or in the midst of defenders, Uh, 441 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: he's always going to put himself first and foremost. Well, 442 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: we know he's right now. He leaves the league in 443 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: receiving yards and I want to say he's second in receptions. 444 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: It could be third, but he is first in receiving yards, 445 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: second in reception. Yeah. So I looked his targets up 446 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,199 Speaker 1: this morning. The only two players that are ahead of 447 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: him is Stefan Diggs and Keenan Allen. There you have 448 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,959 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty seven. They're averaging ten and a 449 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,439 Speaker 1: half targets per game. He's at one hundred and thirty eight. 450 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: About ninety nine. That's more than Davante Adams, Travis Kelsey, 451 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill. And he has sixty nine more targets than 452 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 1: the next Arizona Cardinal player and that'd be Christian Kirk. Yeah, 453 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: Kirk was sixty nine, Hopkins one hundred and thirty eight. 454 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: But when you have an elite wide receiver like DeAndre Hopkins, 455 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,680 Speaker 1: you're gonna look at his direction a lot. And it's 456 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 1: a trust factor. It's a chemistry. Now that Kyler Murray 457 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 1: is forming with d hop and about that trust, Murray 458 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: was asked about that on Sunday, Kyla, how would you 459 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: describe your trust level when it comes to any pass 460 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 1: you throw a D hop Um, I mean I like, 461 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,199 Speaker 1: I like him versus anybody, and uh, I like me 462 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: to put the ball where it needs to be. So 463 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: I guess ninety nine point nine to one hundred. I 464 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: like those odds B train. But as MJ said, the 465 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: discrepancy in targets, does this team need another wide receiver 466 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: and make sure that the the gap is not nearly 467 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: as wide as it is right now between Hopkins and 468 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: everyone else. Eventually yes, but right now it's working. And 469 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: we've seen this on a lot of teams where you 470 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: have the main receiver catching the lion's share of the 471 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,160 Speaker 1: ball from their quarterback, and when you have a dynamic 472 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: playmaker like DeAndre Hopkins, it's easy to want to get 473 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: him the ball and get locked in on one particular target. 474 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 1: But that's not the case. I mean with with Kyler, 475 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: He's throwing the ball to sometimes eight, nine, ten different 476 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: receivers on a given day, So it's not as if 477 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 1: he's forgetting about everybody else and every path only goes 478 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: to DeAndre Hopkins. It's just a matter of every time 479 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: he throws it in his vicinity with those men, he's 480 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: just gonna catch it. So if you're gonna keep catching 481 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: everything that's throwing your way, why wouldn't I keep throwing 482 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: you the ball? That only makes sense if I'm really 483 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: all about the business of winning football games. Yeah. I 484 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 1: go back to Week one. He was targeted sixteen times, 485 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,199 Speaker 1: and I asked somebody after the game, you think he's 486 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: gonna get those targets next week? He says, if they 487 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: don't cover him, we're gonna throw it to him. He 488 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 1: had fourteen catches in that game. Yeah, I'm with you, now, 489 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 1: I do think Chase Edmonds is getting more fluid in 490 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 1: the passing game. Dan Arnold's becoming a weapon. You got 491 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 1: to get more from Christian Kirk. They got to throw 492 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 1: the ball more to fits and then you know Keyshawn 493 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: Johnson's dressing on game day. Again, though, you have to 494 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,239 Speaker 1: have somebody else step up, and I think that's been 495 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 1: Dan Arnold and Chase Edmonds and even Kenyan Drake Hopkins 496 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 1: had nine catches. There were four other receivers with at 497 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: least three catches. There's that difference, but seven different receivers 498 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: had at least twenty five receiving yards in the game, 499 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 1: So they are making the most of when they get 500 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: throwing the football and make the catch. It is just 501 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 1: certainly a large discrepancy again but year one, maybe it 502 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: is something that develops over time. And of course, the 503 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 1: running game on Sunday was not quite up to park. 504 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: Kyle Murray did have a touchdown run, but overall the 505 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: Cardinals only had one hundred and three yards rushing on 506 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: the ground, and I think that was the goal, or 507 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: at least the game plan going in considering the Eagles 508 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 1: secondary was missing three their four starters. Yeah, I mean, 509 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 1: I you know, on paper, I thought this was the 510 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 1: best front they played. Concerning the NFC East. You know, 511 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: obviously Washington's got a really good front in the future. 512 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: Giants are young, they're getting to get better in the future. 513 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: And then you know, you look at the Cowboys that 514 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: got so many injuries. So I thought this was probably 515 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: the biggest test about that front seven and they you know, 516 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: and they did a good job protecting him. They weren't 517 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,479 Speaker 1: able to get that to that second level on some 518 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: of these run plays, and I do think those turnovers 519 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: hurt him when it came to the running game because 520 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: they had great field position, a season best five hundred 521 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 1: and twenty six yards of offense b train. You like 522 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,479 Speaker 1: where this offense is heading now towards these final two games, Yes, 523 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: I do. I think that they keep talking about leaving 524 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,880 Speaker 1: plays on the field. Well, you know, times aren't running out, 525 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 1: so whatever plays that you're leaving, you better go get 526 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: them and go get them quick fastened in the hurry, 527 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: because there's only two more chances to get yourself in 528 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 1: the postseason conversation. And I know that this team is 529 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 1: doing things and they're not trying to leave plays on 530 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 1: the field. So it's just a matter of continue to 531 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: work continuing to get better, and I know that these 532 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 1: guys are all pros. They understand what's are staken, and 533 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 1: I know that they're going to get back to work 534 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: to try to correct those in the stakes. And as 535 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: we always say, it's easier to correct those in the 536 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 1: stakes after a win than it is after a loss. 537 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 1: So I know they feel like, yeah, they did enough 538 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: to win and they feel great about that. Kyler had 539 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: a record number for passing yards in the game, but 540 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: he knows that there were some plays that were left 541 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: out there. And you never stop trying to play that 542 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 1: perfect game. You're always striving for perfection, and I think 543 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 1: that's what these men are trying to do here with 544 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals, and as long as that's the goal, 545 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: then I think they'll be just fine. Getting better on 546 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: third down as well. The Cardinals offensively just three of 547 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: ten on third down, lowest percentage of the season, and 548 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: three of those third downs they had to go ten 549 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,880 Speaker 1: or more yards. So be better on first and second 550 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 1: down to be imageable third down that Cardinals offense will 551 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,199 Speaker 1: stay on the football field.

When we come back, no, we didn't 560 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: forget be trained. We will talk about the defense. They 561 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 1: were big parts of Sunday's win as well. We'll touch 562 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: on another great performance by Dennis Gardeck next on the 563 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals Radio Network. Shotgun Snap hurts a short set 564 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: steps up being chased far side by Guardeck Saxon at 565 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 1: the forty one yard line. Dennis Gardeck has become the 566 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: sack machine. Shotgun Snap hurts with a short set in 567 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:03,919 Speaker 1: trouble step soft kids hit and sacked. Dennis Gardak was 568 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: there first. Somebody hit the stroll baby guard Deckie gard 569 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: Deckie gard Deckie. Apparently Dennis Gardak has a new nickname. 570 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: Kyle Murray. Wired up on Sunday and the Cardinals win 571 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: over the Eagles and k one guard Deckie. Okay, I 572 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 1: guess it fits him, Jo, I don't know. Yeah, I 573 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 1: gotta call him something. Two more sacks. He's got seven 574 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: now on the season. He is averaging a sack every 575 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: thirteen point three snaps. Petrain, I didn't do the math 576 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: to figure out what was your sack snap ratio. But 577 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 1: Dennis Gardak making the most of every single time he 578 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: is on the defense. He is a testament to hard 579 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: work and preparation and when he got his opportunity, he 580 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: was ready for it. And I think he's surprising a 581 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: lot of people on just how athletic he truly is. 582 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: A lot of times there's a stigma with small school 583 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: guys and can they come in and compete with the 584 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: bigger school guys. Well, I think Dennis has blown that 585 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: out of the water. But the fact that he wears 586 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: and feeling his chest that means that he already had 587 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: the respect of his teammates, but now everybody starting to 588 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: see what he can really do when given the opportunity 589 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: to play regular defense. And the fact that he's done 590 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: this with so few reps. I think if your advance Joseph, 591 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: you have to find a way to get him on 592 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: the field more than what he is, and he's doing 593 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: it with just a lot of desire and want to 594 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: and their skill mixed in there, without question, But the 595 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: fact that you just see him relentless on the field 596 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: and that energy that he provides is just so contagious 597 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: and you have to be happy for a guy that 598 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: works as hard as this does. Yeah, when they bring 599 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: in that jet package, that looks like he's part of 600 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: that package. And you know the way that Hassan Ruddick's 601 00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: playing and Marcus Golden and Devin Cannard, his snapcount has 602 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: gone down big time, so you know, but it looks 603 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 1: like when they go to that jet package and that's 604 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: where he's at. Now, our colleague Kyle Odegar just tweezed out. 605 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: Dennis Gardeck has more sacks this season than Cameron Jordan, 606 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Lawrence, Chase Young and j J. Watt on ninety 607 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: three snaps. Now, let's be fair here, a lot of 608 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: those guys get double teamed, if not triple team throughout 609 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: the course of the year, but pretty impressive names. And 610 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: here's Dennis Gardeck. Gardeck his seven sacks second to Hassan Reddick. 611 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 1: The Cardinals overall with forty three sacks this season. Very impressive. Again, 612 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 1: no Chandler Jones, no Corey Peters inside, so guys have 613 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 1: had to step up and it's exactly what has happened 614 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: for that defense and Guardeck specifically. Here's his head coach, 615 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury. He's just such a remarkable story watching him 616 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: last year. You know how hard he practiced when he 617 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 1: was on scout team. You know, I saw a guy 618 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 1: who would make plays every day on scout team. We 619 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: had a hard time blocking him. And I think also like, yeah, 620 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: but it won't translate to Sundays, And sure enough it has. 621 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: And he plays the game the way it's meant to 622 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: be played. And he's been a huge part of this 623 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: team and hopefully a huge part of this Saturday as well. 624 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: Guardek was not on the field to close out the game. 625 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: In fact, he was carted back to the locker room, 626 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: although the cart kind of stalled so Dennis could watch 627 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: some of the final action before going into the locker room. 628 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 1: We don't have an update as far as one what 629 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: was wrong and to how he is. Hopefully it will 630 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 1: come either later today or tomorrow when the Cardinals returned 631 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: to the practice field, but you certainly hope for the 632 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 1: best because Gardek also is important on special teams. After 633 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,719 Speaker 1: everything he did defensively, he also had two tackles on 634 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: special teams as well. Another defensive player who really stood 635 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: out on Sunday b Train Zach Allen, the second year 636 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: defensive lineman out of Boston College. Injuries have certainly robbed 637 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 1: him a lot of his playing time, but for an 638 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: interior defensive lineman, and yeah, sometimes he was lined up 639 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: on the outside. Not only did it lead the team, 640 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: but he had a game high eleven tackles, and you 641 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: have to look at him and just say, man, what if, 642 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: what if he would have been healthy all season long? 643 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: What kind of numbers could he have put up? And 644 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 1: this is why he was so highly thought of coming 645 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: out of Boston College and why he was a high 646 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: draft pick of Steve Kahman company. So he's doing You're 647 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 1: starting to see what he can do when he's truly healthy, 648 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: and you just you're happy for him because you know, 649 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: as you said, Craig, he's had to overcome so many 650 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: injuries and different reasons why he hasn't been able to 651 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: contribute on the field and now that he's on the field. 652 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: I think it's a testament to Brinson Butler and the 653 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: job that he's done because the names that he's had 654 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: to work with this year and getting it done here 655 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 1: down the stretch with those guys that maybe weren't expected 656 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 1: to have quite the roles that they have. It just 657 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: shows that one he can coach him up and the 658 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 1: guys that they brought in do have ability, and they've 659 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: shown that every time they've been on the field making ploys. 660 00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: I think one of the biggest things is, you know 661 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 1: last year when he got shut down, is he at 662 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 1: the weights. He's a lot stronger, and you know, look 663 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: at Dan Arnold and Mason Cole, they've done the same thing. 664 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 1: Unfortunately they weren't able to be at the facility, but 665 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: you could see he's a lot stronger, and you know, 666 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 1: as long as he can stay healthy, he'll be a fixture. 667 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 1: You know. You know, you get Jordan Phillips back and 668 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens with Corey Peters. But I like 669 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: where they're at, and I agree with ba Train. You 670 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: got to give Brinson Buckner a lot of credit because 671 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: he doesn't hesitate to put these guys in there, whether 672 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 1: their starters or backups. Zach Allen played a career high 673 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: seventy four snaps, eleven tackles, one sack, one tackle for loss, 674 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: one quarterback hit, one past defence. He was all over 675 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 1: the stat sheet. And here's his head coach, Cliff Kingsbury. 676 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 1: He's always tried to do everything like we We've told 677 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: him to do it, which as a coach you appreciate. 678 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: I mean, he told him to get stronger. He's been 679 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 1: all off season here working out and getting bigger. You know, 680 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: he just had a couple injuries that had slowed him down. 681 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: But to get him back out there and watch the 682 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,959 Speaker 1: success he's having is cool to see. He's a guy 683 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: who you know, is uber productive in college. He tends 684 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: to always be around the quarterback when he's in there, 685 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: and it's been nice to see him have some of 686 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: that production show up here. The last couple of weeks, 687 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 1: Alan one sack, Gardeck two sacks. The Cardinals as a 688 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: team got to Jalen Hurts six times, also added seven 689 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: quarterback hits, but that is now fourteen sacks in the 690 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,800 Speaker 1: past two games. It's one thing to do it against 691 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, who was basically stationary in the pocket. It's 692 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 1: another to do it against Jalen Hurts, who was very mobile. 693 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 1: Yet you saw several Cardinal defenders chase him down, including 694 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 1: a Dennis Gardeck. But the fourteen sacks a number that 695 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: stood out to Jordan Hicks. It's huge. You know, anytime 696 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 1: you can get pressure on a quarterback, it makes everybody's 697 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 1: job easier to have guys go out there and to 698 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: be able to put it together. The pass rush of 699 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 1: the way we have the past few games is exceptional. 700 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 1: That's a big key to our success. You know, we've 701 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 1: got to get pressure on the quarterback and you know 702 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: we've been able to do that absolutely. And you know, 703 00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: Reddick generated ten of the Cardinals the two pressures against 704 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: the Eagles, So I mean, he maybe not got to 705 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:05,800 Speaker 1: the quarterback as much as we have in the past, 706 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: but the fact that he was in the backfield and 707 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: he was able to, you know, take a guy like 708 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts off his spot. Clearly the Cardinals, you know, 709 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: had some mistackles in the open field, but you know, 710 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: you look at Jaalen Hurts and not a lot of 711 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 1: film out there, but that's something they're gonna have to 712 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,799 Speaker 1: look at and make make sure if they're playing a 713 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:24,840 Speaker 1: mobile quarterback, you've got to tackle much better in the 714 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: open field, Patran, how surprised are you? The Cardinals with 715 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 1: the fourth most sacks in the league, tied with Tampa Bay. 716 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 1: But as we mentioned, there is no Chandler Jones to 717 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 1: occupy some attention on one side of the field. The 718 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 1: Cardinals are doing it by committee. And that's exactly what 719 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: has happened over the past couple of weeks. You've just 720 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: seen team playing and sometimes when you have one guy 721 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 1: that's the lightning ride and and considered the best player, 722 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: he gets a lot of the attention and some of 723 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: the guys tend to defer to him. But not having 724 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: Chandler there, not not having Corey Peters there, everybody's got 725 00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: to take on responsibility themselves and step up their own game. 726 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 1: And we're starting to see that. And of course, what 727 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: can we say about Hassan Reddick, I mean, the guy 728 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 1: I thought it was a provol snub. He's continuing to 729 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 1: really affect the game. He may not make every single play, 730 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: but you start talking about how he makes makes the play. 731 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: He may not get the tackle, but he makes the 732 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: play and I think those types of contributions are just 733 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: as important as making the actual tackle. So there's a 734 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: lot of guys that are contributing to the defensive success, 735 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 1: and that's that's what you want. You want to have 736 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: eleven guys out there doing their job one and then 737 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 1: doing a little of the extra work that that's not 738 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:43,799 Speaker 1: always drawing up as far as what the given defenses. 739 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: And as long as they have that, then advance Joseph 740 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: should have no problem calling any plays that he has 741 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 1: at his disposal. Oh, you brought him up, Beatran. As 742 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 1: they look. The six sacks in two games for Hassan 743 00:36:56,239 --> 00:37:00,359 Speaker 1: Reddick the most enfranchise history over any two game span. 744 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 1: There are a couple of players who did five sacks 745 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,959 Speaker 1: over two games. Bertram Berry did it back in two 746 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:10,399 Speaker 1: thousand and five and weeks eight and nine, Chandler Jones 747 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,959 Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, Albaker in nineteen eighty three, and David 748 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 1: Galloway in nineteen eighty three. But you're looking up at 749 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 1: his son Reddick in another category, b Train. I don't 750 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: mind looking up at his line and he's a guy. 751 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 1: I'm very proud of him and the things that he's 752 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 1: doing this year. You just seeing a guy that's playing free, 753 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 1: playing losing and playing with a lot of confidence. I 754 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: think that's the biggest thing for him, The fact that 755 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: he has that confidence now to know that he can 756 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: go out there and make plays and affect the game. 757 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 1: I think that just takes him to another level. And 758 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 1: it's just a joy to watch him blossom in front 759 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,399 Speaker 1: of our very eyes. And hopefully he's got two more 760 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 1: games with a lot of magic left to go out 761 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 1: there and help this team get into the playoffs. And 762 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 1: so you definitely rooted for him. And of course he 763 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,439 Speaker 1: and Garden act they make a dynamic duo and they're 764 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 1: doing a lot of meetings in the backfield left the quarterback, 765 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,720 Speaker 1: and so as long as they're not late of those meetings, 766 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: we're going to be just then. Yeah, and we got 767 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: a chance to see Hassan Raddick. I'm sorry Zaiah Simmons 768 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 1: rushed the pastor a little bit. He started off at 769 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 1: safety and then he played a little bit of inside, 770 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 1: but he was on the outside. He actually played sixty 771 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,800 Speaker 1: of eighty snaps for Arizona's defense. He did surrender that 772 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: thirty two yard touchdown in coverage, but again other guys 773 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 1: stepped up between Lecky and Rashard Lawrence and Zach Allen. 774 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 1: So I like the production, the getting there, and I 775 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: think it has a lot to do with the secondary's 776 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 1: kind of settling down, even though they don't have Jalen 777 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 1: or Dean take Thompson, Banjo's been making plays. We know, Buddha, 778 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: Baker Patrick. I thought Murphy made some really good plays 779 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 1: late in the game and then he you know, you 780 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: throw in them, you know, obviously Buddha, because to me, 781 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: when that secondary settled down, they can get pressure on 782 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 1: the quarterback. It was by Or Murphy who had the 783 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: past defense on that final throw into the end zone 784 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:55,240 Speaker 1: as the Eagles ran out of time there. On Sunday 785 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: on Isaiah Simmons next Gen Stats had him listed at 786 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 1: six different positions on Sunday, outside linebacker, inside linebackers, slot corner, 787 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 1: strong safety, outside corner, and free safety. In fact, he 788 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 1: started at free safety about twenty five yards off the 789 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and almost had an interception on that 790 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 1: first drive as well.

It's a touchdown for Chase Edmonds. The 803 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: first score of twenty twenty for the Cardinals coming off 804 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 1: the punt block.

And now you run one play and 806 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 1: dump it out the Chase Edmonds a little misdirection and 807 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: he stretches out, dives for the pylon and got the 808 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 1: pig against the Orange Baby. Flashback Week one, Levi's Stadium, 809 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,919 Speaker 1: Cardinals at the forty nine ers and that touchdown made 810 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,799 Speaker 1: it ten seven in favor of the forty nine ers. 811 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 1: As you heard Deve Pascha, the first score of twenty 812 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:46,320 Speaker 1: twenty and yes, set up by the Ezekiel Turner punt block. 813 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 1: Dennis Cardack with the recovery turner, now two punt blocks 814 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 1: this season. He had one last week against the Eagles, 815 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,320 Speaker 1: and the Cardinals now set their sites on Week sixteen 816 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 1: and a return against the forty nine Ers, looking for 817 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 1: the season series suite for the first time since twenty 818 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,800 Speaker 1: eighteen and the fifth time in the last six years. 819 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: Overall betrayed. This is a very banged up forty nine 820 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 1: Ers team. They don't have a good record, they don't 821 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: have their usual players on the field anymore. But the 822 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: bottom line is the Cardinals need this win, desperately need 823 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: this win to maintain that seventh seed in the NFC. 824 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:22,759 Speaker 1: It says this Sunday night, and I'm gonna say it again. 825 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: If you're looking for sympathy, you can find it in 826 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:27,879 Speaker 1: a dictionary between spit and symphamis. There's no sympathy right 827 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 1: now for any team that's injured. The Cardinals have had 828 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 1: their fair share of injuries throughout the course of their 829 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 1: time here, and that's just the nature of the game. 830 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: There's gonna be injuries, there's gonna be guys that don't 831 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 1: finish the season, and you have to be able to 832 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:46,840 Speaker 1: put out a competitive product, and I think Cru Shanahan 833 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 1: and company are gonna do that. They're not going to 834 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:50,720 Speaker 1: come in and roll over. This is a division opponent, 835 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 1: this is a home game for the Arizona Cardinals, So 836 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: everything is in front of them. They just got to 837 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 1: go out and handle their business. And you can't worry 838 00:41:58,080 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: about who's not on the field. You've got to scout 839 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 1: the guys that are on the field and make sure 840 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:05,840 Speaker 1: you have a game playing that's capable of beating who's 841 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 1: on the field. And yeah, it thinks that they're not 842 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: at full strength, We're not at full strength. That's just 843 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 1: how that how that works. And so we've got to 844 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,919 Speaker 1: do what they've got to do. And if they come 845 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 1: out of this game with a victory, they're not going 846 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,960 Speaker 1: to have astras. Well, this guy didn't play, that guy 847 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 1: didn't play. It's whoever showed up beat one team beat 848 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:31,439 Speaker 1: the other. And that's how it's just going to be remembered. Yeah, 849 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 1: and if you go back to Week one, Kittle and 850 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: Garoppolo did playing that game. Kittle was injured in the 851 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 1: second half, and they've only played five games together this 852 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 1: season and they're two and three in those games. You 853 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 1: know this is a Winnabowl game for the Cardinals. I 854 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,280 Speaker 1: mean they're playing for something. We always talk about winning 855 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 1: home games, winning division games, and winning conference games, and 856 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 1: this would check a big box if they want to 857 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:55,439 Speaker 1: get to the postseason. Cardinals in that first meeting two 858 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 1: or two inside the red zone. They were three of 859 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 1: five scoring touchdowns inside the twenty yard line on Sunday 860 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,879 Speaker 1: against the Eagles. Of course twice they turned the ball over. 861 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,320 Speaker 1: Something Head coach Cliff Kingsbury is making a point of 862 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 1: emphasis this week. We had to be better in that. 863 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 1: You get those opportunities down near the red zone on 864 00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: the first and second down and you just can't turn 865 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,239 Speaker 1: it over. You gotta get points out of that, and 866 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,880 Speaker 1: our guys understand that. And the margin fire is getting 867 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 1: smaller and smaller as we wrap of the season. We 868 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 1: gotta get better in that area. Overall, the Cardinals very 869 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 1: good inside the road zone. They are top ten scoring 870 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:31,240 Speaker 1: touchdowns sixty eight percent of the time. It's just you can't, 871 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 1: especially in games here in December, you can't waste those 872 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,760 Speaker 1: opportunities and the score. Cardinals made it harder on themselves 873 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:40,400 Speaker 1: than it needed to be against the Eagles, and you 874 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 1: don't want to repeat here on Saturday. No, And we 875 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 1: know that when you get down to the red zone 876 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: and third downs, I mean you have to if you're 877 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:49,960 Speaker 1: gonna go on a nice ten twelve play drive. But 878 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:52,200 Speaker 1: the field gets a lot shorter. But you know, they 879 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: have really leaned down the running game when it comes 880 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: to trying to score rushing touchdowns within the five or 881 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 1: ten yard line. Clearly Kyler can run in Drake Edmundson 882 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 1: and I'll throw it a few times. But they have 883 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,399 Speaker 1: really made some vast improvements from a year ago just 884 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 1: scoring touchdowns versus field goals. Forty nine ers defense very 885 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 1: good against the run, but be trained for you and 886 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 1: this game on Saturday again, the day after Christmas two 887 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 1: thirty at State Farm Stadium. What would you say is 888 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 1: the key to me? The kid is just maintaining possession, 889 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:29,520 Speaker 1: not turning the ball over. I think this is a 890 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 1: game that the Cardinals should win. They should go out 891 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,399 Speaker 1: and have some success against this banged up forty nine team. 892 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,920 Speaker 1: But you gotta possess the ball, you can't give it away, 893 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 1: and when you have the opportunities, you gotta go hit 894 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 1: that quarterback Mullins and make sure that he's uncomfortable, because 895 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 1: we saw when he played the Cowboys last week. When 896 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: he is uncomfortable, he will throw you a few interceptions 897 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:52,319 Speaker 1: and and the partners have to capitalize on those opportunities. Yeah, 898 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 1: Nick Bollins turned the ball over three times last week. 899 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 1: Cardinals and forty nine Ers two thirty is the kickoff 900 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 1: on Saturday thirty am.
