Here week go over the shoulder 10 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,520 Speaker 1: catch by Kirk in the ends over a touchdown? Oh 11 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 1: hum field. Here's Craig Griolu, Mike Jarecki, and thirteen year 12 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 1: NFL veteran Drew Stanton. So as we speak here at 13 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: eleven am on Tuesday, it's been forty eight hours since 14 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: the debacle in Detroit's and I know Drew. They're supposed 15 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: to be a twenty four our rule after games, win 16 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,559 Speaker 1: or lose, But what about a loss like that? How 17 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: long would have thirty to twelve loss to a previously 18 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: one win team take for you to get over? Knowing 19 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 1: full well that maybe family members and people that you 20 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: come across on the streets will still not come close 21 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: to needing just the twenty four hours to get over. 22 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: And you're one of those. I mean, yeah, they're out 23 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: there on the practice field. You've moved on to the 24 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: next one. And we talked about it postgame. It's extremely 25 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: difficult because you're flying home. You're sulking on that plane 26 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 1: and saying, man, we will let one get away. We 27 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: could have clinched the playoff spot, we could have done 28 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: all these things, and unfortunately you didn't. And this is 29 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: a production based business. They didn't go out and they 30 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: didn't perform, but the way that they didn't perform is 31 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: what's more alarming. And I think that to a man, 32 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: they can look at each other. You circle the wagons, 33 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: you go back there, you watch the film, and you 34 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: hold each other accountable. I mean, that's the one thing 35 00:01:58,160 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: that I think they can do. And they have hung 36 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: their heads on, especially defensively, right like, we're not going 37 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: to expect this out of Kyla. There's going to be 38 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: a down game every once in a while for him. Offensively, 39 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: especially figuring out some different things and whatnot. But defensively, 40 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: how can they make sure that this big issue of 41 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: stopping the run and making sure they're putting in a 42 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: concerted effort of all eleven guys doing that. A lot 43 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: of it's just the accountability portion of it, and the 44 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: beauty of playing this team game that they play is 45 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: one guy doesn't do his job, he's out of the gap, 46 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 1: or he doesn't fill a gap, or a safety doesn't 47 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: come down and fill the right lane, all of those things. 48 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: That's what leads to, unfortunately, losing to a football team 49 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,679 Speaker 1: that just wanted it. More a lot of questions, m Jay, 50 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: we just don't have a lot of answers, and we 51 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: might not get any answers until this weekend or maybe 52 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 1: not until the end of the regular season. Yeah, it's 53 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: just disappointing. You know, when you hear that, you know 54 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: they wanted it. They were desperate. Well, the Cardinals should 55 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: have been desperate. I mean, you had something to play for, 56 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: and again you got to move on. But it's just, 57 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,119 Speaker 1: you know, you want to be playing your best football 58 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: in December and you still got three games to go 59 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: here clearly a tough matchup on Saturday night, then you 60 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: got to go to Dallas and then he hosts a Seahawks, 61 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: so you know, it's just they got off to a 62 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: great start and then all of a sudden, you know 63 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: it hasn't been the same. And you know, Kyler's miss games, 64 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: hops miss games. But I just think when it comes 65 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 1: to the offense, and you can correct me if I'm wrong, Drew, 66 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: And again, not everyone's gonna have a great game, but 67 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,799 Speaker 1: I think Kyler's just gotta he's got a really zone 68 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: and on with the with the offense and not try 69 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: to freelance and make plays on his own. Yeah, I 70 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: think once you start getting that internal pressure, and we 71 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: talked about the games where it started to feel like 72 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: it was slipping Houston, they pulled it back in, but 73 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: you have to be able to identify that of hey, 74 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: stay in the pocket, make those rhythm throws when you 75 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: can do it. And everybody loves to watch these off 76 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: schedule throws when he flips around and he goes back 77 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: thirty yards and then makes a ten yard completion. But 78 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: that's a lot of time, that's a lot of effort, 79 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: and those guys are coming after him, and you can't 80 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: sit there and chase ghosts. You have to stay in 81 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: there and do that, and it's very difficult. Look, there's 82 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: a human element to this game that nobody talks about. 83 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: You watch Sunday Night's football game when Tom Brady's getting 84 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: hit or Tom Brady in the Super Bowl. Quarterbacks don't 85 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: want to get hit, and if they feel like they're 86 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: not protected, they're gonna be a little bit more apt 87 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: to get out of pocket. Kyler just has a greater 88 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: skill set than all of us and blessed with the 89 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: ability to do it more regularly. But there's still the 90 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: potential and he has the ability to sit in there 91 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: and make those throws and be on time and go 92 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 1: through a progression. It's just when it starts to slip 93 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: a little bit, it just goes and goes, and you 94 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: find yourself in this conundrum of well, you're so out 95 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: of sync that everything seems like there's not a rhythm 96 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: throw that you're throwing with your feet all out of whack. 97 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: You're not getting your arm into it, you're missing high, 98 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: you're missing low, you're missing outside, and that's uncharacteristic. Again, 99 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: it is one game that you take that and say, 100 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: all right, we're throwing that one out. Who knows, I 101 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 1: wouldn't even watch the film. Probably I would just let's 102 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: get on, you know, we got an early week this week. 103 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: Let's get on because they can very well come out 104 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: here and they can stop the run. They have the 105 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: ability to do it. They can jump on teams early, 106 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: and they can make this a game that they want 107 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: to play and make it and play it to their strength. 108 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: It's just a matter of doing it. You know, when 109 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: Colt McCoy was in there, and again Kyler Murray's starting quarterback, 110 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, it just seemed like the game plan 111 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: was a little bit different to where you know, they 112 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,679 Speaker 1: were baiting those guys two wins on the road against 113 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 1: San Francisco and Seattle, and they were running the screen game. 114 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: You know, I'm surprised with Chase Edmon coming back. They 115 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: didn't try to run the football and I know, you're 116 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: down seventeen nothing, but coming out in a third quarter 117 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: they were able to run the football. I just think 118 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: they got to clean some things up. And I use 119 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: the word pressing and Kingsbury's using it. They were just pressing, 120 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: and I get that, but I want to see this 121 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: offense get back to running the football and utilize the 122 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: play action where you can take some shots down the field. 123 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: It seems like it's been a struggle over the last 124 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Again, it certainly was a big time 125 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: struggle on Sunday in Detroit Week fifteen, again in the 126 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: final thirty to twelve. Here's the head coach, Cliff Kingsbury. 127 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: I thought they outplayed us, out coached US, had more 128 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: energy and had a greater sense urgency. And you don't 129 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: want to be that team, particularly with how well we 130 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: played on the road so so far this year. We 131 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: just didn't look like us. No, they did not. And 132 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: the Cardinals still at ten and four, knocking on that 133 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: door to the postseason, had an opportunity on Monday night 134 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: football against the Rams, unable to open the door, had 135 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: an opportunity against the Lions, unable to open that door. 136 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: And any given Sunday. It's a cliche, but Kyle Murray 137 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 1: knows if you don't come ready, you can get beat. 138 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: And this is NFL. You know this is not easy. 139 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: You know, if you don't come prepare, you don't give 140 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: respect to you know who you're playing, you get beating us. 141 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: You know, ass outs to them. Kingsbury earlier on Tuesday, 142 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: Drew again gave credit to the Lions. Yet I know 143 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: fans don't like to hear the head coach give credit 144 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: to the other team, So where is that balanced as 145 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: far as okay, how much it was it us, how 146 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: much was it them? I think it's both. I mean, 147 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: when you look at that game, and everybody's got a 148 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,359 Speaker 1: bad taste in their mouth right now, But there's it 149 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: doesn't matter how good of a quarterback you are, you're 150 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: going to have a down game or two games if 151 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: you're an elite quarterback. And the trickle down effect from 152 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 1: there it goes to the guys that were like me. 153 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: There are backups that you could play well or you 154 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: could go out there and not play so well. So 155 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: I mean, Aaron Rodgers week one didn't play great. Last week, 156 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: Tom Rady didn't play great. It's going to happen, and 157 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: I think it's just fresh in our minds. So we're 158 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: sitting there and we don't feel good about it, you know, 159 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: at the adversity that they have to deal with. It's 160 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: not desperation, it's adversity. And Cliff talked about it, and 161 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: I think Cliff does and says all of the right things, 162 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: and he's doing this, He's keeping everybody together, and that's 163 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: the job of the head coach is being able to 164 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: do these things in a sense that you still have 165 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: everybody behind you. The leadership component that's so important, and 166 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: I truly think that Cliff said, you know, he wore it. 167 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: He said, we got outcoached, we got outplayed, and those 168 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: both of those responsibilities fall on Cliff first, and then 169 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: the trickle down effect does to Kyler of he has 170 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: to be the other component that they need to get 171 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: on the same page. And you can point to a 172 00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: lot of different things. You can look at stats. You 173 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: can feel good or you can you can either make 174 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: you feel better or they may make you feel worse 175 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: about the way things went. Unfortunately, they didn't go well. 176 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: But I think this team has enough enough pride to 177 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: go out there on Saturday, on Christmas and on a 178 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: national stage and everybody's gonna be talking about they can't 179 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: win at home, they can't win on national stage or 180 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: anything like this. They have everything they need in that 181 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: locker room. And that would be my message if I 182 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: was Cliff, And that's sure Cliff's message is everything we 183 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: need is right in front of us. We're not desperate, 184 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: We're not sitting and saying, oh man, well, we need 185 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: this team to lose so we can win the division 186 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: or get a home plant. Everything they need is that 187 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: one to no mentality that got to them to where 188 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: they are. And look, the game started out not in 189 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: their favor. They had chances to get it back or 190 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: flip the script. It didn't work, and they kept trying 191 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 1: to find ways it just didn't work. And that's really 192 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: what it comes down to. I'm sure Cliffs and there saying, man, 193 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: how did I not get chased the ball? Or how 194 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: did I not try it? And you know, manufacture some 195 00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: different things here, or should I have taken the point. 196 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: It's all a process of learning and adapting to what's 197 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: going on. And Kyler is doing the same thing right now. 198 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: I know everybody talked about his body language. Look that 199 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: was one game, and he's as competitive and he's used 200 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: to being successful. I mean, he has not had to 201 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: deal with a whole bunch of downs in his career, 202 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: and that's gonna be make him better off in the 203 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 1: long run. And Saturday is going to come out and 204 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 1: I think showcase everything that he's capable of doing and 205 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: put this team on his back offensively and carry that 206 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: over into a huge win, and then all this talk 207 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: will go by the wayside. Yeah, I mean I get it. 208 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: He's frustrated coming to the sidelines, clearly if every receiver 209 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: didn't run the right route, or maybe he's not getting protection. 210 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: But when you're the quarterback, I mean, I know that 211 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: they're going to pan him when he goes to the silent. 212 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: I would like to see him have better body language 213 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: because everyone's looking at him to get this team out 214 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: of a rut. Right now. Oh, no doubt. I think 215 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: you know, going through it is one thing and then 216 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: analyzing it afterwards. I'm sure Kyler would say the same thing, 217 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: and he said all the right things post game as well. 218 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: Right they're saying all the things that you need to 219 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: say and hind closed doors to Craig's point earlier, Hopefully 220 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: they're living it out and that's the thing that will 221 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: show up on Saturday because the preparation the times isn't there, 222 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: and there's such a misconception of oh, you can have 223 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: the best week of practice, but when you go in 224 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: there and you get punched in the mouth, what do 225 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: you do? What's going to happen at that point and 226 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: you just need to be resilient, You need to stick 227 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: to the plan and that's where you kind of come 228 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: closer together and you circle and say, okay, like offensively, 229 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: what do we need to do to make sure we're 230 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 1: doing this? And is it just get a first down 231 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: and then get points on the board and then get 232 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: the ball rolling and doing these things and playing complimentary 233 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: football right like those are the type of things that 234 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: are going to lend them to get back to where 235 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: they need to be. But we're not too far away 236 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 1: from where as they have been the entire season. Might 237 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: be the best thing for this team that the game 238 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: is Saturday. One less day to prepare, yes, but one 239 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: less day for us to talk about it. Now, the 240 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 1: big question is how will this team respond. Here's the 241 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: head coach, Cliff Kingsbury. I mean, this is the NFL. 242 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: Each and every week, you're gonna get challenged, and you're 243 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 1: gonna have your upscence downs, And this is why we 244 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: gotta respond to You gotta look ourselves in the mirror 245 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: and figure it out. It was not that long ago 246 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,959 Speaker 1: this team was seven and oh, though they are three 247 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 1: and four since that seven and oh start, and people 248 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 1: are discussing what happened a year ago a six and 249 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: three start and a two and five finish that was 250 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 1: asked specifically to Kyler Murray in Detroit. No no, no no, no, no, no, 251 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: no again. You know, still ten of four, still first 252 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: place individually. I mean, this isn't this isn't nowhere near 253 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 1: what we were last year that we're not going to 254 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 1: allow it to be. I can understand, MJ the comparison 255 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: made between last year and this year, but this year's 256 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,199 Speaker 1: team is a heck of a lot more talented than 257 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: last year's team, and the players that are back from 258 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: last year's team are a year older, year wiser, year 259 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: more of experience. And I'm talking about Kyler Murray, Chase Edmonds, 260 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: all those young players that have been through it now 261 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: and might know how to deal with it better than 262 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: a year ago. Well, I mean, first of all, he 263 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: was he wasn't healthy towards the end of the season. 264 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: You had to go with Chris Streveler in that last game. 265 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: And then you give CJ. Beth and a a lot of 266 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: credit even though you know they had they only had 267 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: to win one game in the final two weeks and 268 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: they don't win any game and the Bears get in. So, 269 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: I mean they've had opportunities. Obviously, the Rams, they came with. 270 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: You know, they were desperate. They were the better football 271 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: team on Monday night. So you know, again they're a 272 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 1: playoff team. So let's not look ahead and say, oh, 273 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: they're the Lions. But and here they had two opportunities 274 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: and you would have thought they would have clinched in Detroit. 275 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: But here they are and again three games to go. 276 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: And this is where you want to start start excelling again. 277 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: And it really gets up to the guys in the 278 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: locker room. Coaches can only do so much. It's about execution, 279 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: doing your job. And if you do your job, this 280 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: team could be successful. If guys are freelancing, then it's 281 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: going to go the opposite. Away a loss like Sunday 282 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: in September, October feels different. We're in December, playoffs right 283 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: around the corner. So that's why there's a little more 284 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: angst after what we saw on Sunday at board Field. 285 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: We continue to talk about it here. It's the Cardinals 286 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 1: Red Ze Reboard every Tuesday, eleven a m all season long. 287 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 1: Make sure you want to catch up on your favorite 288 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: show like The Cardinals Red Sea Report.

Kyler Murray did not look like 295 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. We'll discuss that next here on the Arizona 296 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: Cardinals Radio Network. Two receivers leapt one right, snap to Murray. 297 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 1: Pomp's laugh looking deep. It's not there, comes back to 298 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: the near side. It's picked off at the forty five 299 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 1: yard line of diving interception may running back Orawarier at 300 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: the twenty, at the ten and on abound at the 301 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: six yard line, Hamani Orawarier with an interception. As Kyler 302 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: went through his progression, came back to the near side 303 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: and it was intercepted. Kayler was laid on the throw 304 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: on that out route right there. The corner came up 305 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: and picked it. Made a great play actually what could 306 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: have been. After a fumble recovery, the Cardinals give it 307 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: rights back on a pass play that was intended for 308 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: aj Green. The Cardinals turn it over and the Rams 309 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: respond with another Jared Goff touchdown his third of the 310 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: day and go up twenty four to three. They win 311 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: thirty to twelve. As we break it down here on 312 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: the Cardinals Red Sea Report, Craig Rayelu, Drew Stanton, and 313 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: Mike Jarecki, looking at Kyler Murray and specifically Drewsiu said 314 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: that particular play right there in the third quarter, it 315 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: was I don't know if it was certainly wasn't his 316 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: initial read, but great pocket. He had great protection and 317 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: it literally went from the left side of the field 318 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: to the right side of the field before he finally 319 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: threw the football to Aj Green. Yeah, he stayed in 320 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: the pocket, did a great job there. You know, without 321 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: knowing the complete nuances of the play, I would think 322 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: that that's like an iso right on the back side 323 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: that if he wants to go to it, he goes 324 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: to it right away and throws that comeback. It's difficult 325 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: to be able to go left the middle of the 326 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: field back right. And then he left the ball short right. 327 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: If you're gonna throw that ball, leave it, throw it 328 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: high and outside and give aj Green a chance to 329 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: do that. I mean, the worst thing you can do. 330 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: But again, when your feet aren't completely there to make 331 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: that throw. You're gonna tendency is to leave it a 332 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: little inside as opposed to sitting there and sailing it. 333 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: But again, it's all a learning process. He's still a 334 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: young guy that's figuring all these things out. And there 335 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: was one play that, unfortunately, to your point after the turnover, 336 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: could have completely gotten momentum rolling and in their favor. 337 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: It just didn't, and it kind of took the wind 338 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: out of the sales as a quarterback, and I realized 339 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: it's difficult when you're watching it via television versus film 340 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: or being in person. But eighteen in completions for Kyler Murray, 341 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: he was off. He didn't get a lot of help 342 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: from his receivers, but specifically the quarterback play. What did 343 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: you see out of Kyler Murray? Yeah, just out of sync? 344 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 1: Like I said, his feet were all over the place. 345 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: When I watch a guy play that's in rhythm and 346 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: doing this, you see a lot of the same stuff 347 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: from his lower half and there's a consistency there, and 348 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: Kyler has that same ability to do it each and 349 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: every week. Now sometimes it's from different platforms or doing 350 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: different things. But as the throw comes off and he's 351 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: missing in different locations. It's so uncharacteristic of him, especially 352 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: all in these drags because he creates space, he creates 353 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: movement of just a subtle shift to the right or 354 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: left since he's a shorter guy to be able to 355 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: see these guys, but puts the ball out in front 356 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: and does it in a very catchable manner. And then 357 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, once you miss one or two, 358 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: it becomes mental, right, it becomes oh man, what did 359 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: I do there? Why? What's going on? And you're just off? 360 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: And there's different ways that you try and correct that. 361 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: And he was pressing a little bit. You could see 362 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: these things again, and that's part of the maturation process. 363 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: He's a young guy in this league. You're not going 364 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 1: to have a seventeen game season where you don't hit 365 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: a little bit of a loll But how do you 366 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: come back from that? How do you correct that? I 367 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: think that's partially okay, Cliff can go in there and 368 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 1: correct it. I think that you have cold. They're trying 369 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 1: to help him out on the sidelines or talking about 370 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 1: different things. As the film study comes up. After the game, 371 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: you can sit there and say, hey, like you know, 372 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 1: get your feet more underneath you here, maybe you aren't 373 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 1: making this throw and maybe you know, there's so many 374 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: different things. We're on the outside trying to just assess it, 375 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: and that's why it's hard to say. But overall you 376 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: could see that's not who we are accustomed to seeing 377 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:39,199 Speaker 1: out there now on the green pass attempts. There was 378 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: plenty of time to throw, but for the most part 379 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: MJ and going back to Monday night against the Rams, 380 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: it was a struggle because Kyler Murray has been scrambling 381 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 1: a lot to try to buy some time for his 382 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 1: receivers to get open. Yeah, and you know, even the 383 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: way the game started where they were in an RPO 384 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,239 Speaker 1: or zone read and I look like Connor would have 385 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: a little bit of a sliver. I mean obviously see 386 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: you know, you don't know, but there was there was 387 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: a lane there and he decided to take the ball 388 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: and give Harris a lot of credit because he was 389 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: all over the field. Even then the roundel Moore throw, 390 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: Harris made this tackle right there where usually you want 391 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: to get roundel Moore in space. Yeah, I just think 392 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: he's pressed him and listen, maybe you know he to 393 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 1: me he's out of the MVP race, which is obvious. 394 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: But now it's just just focus on getting back to 395 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: the basics. I mean, listen, he put up big numbers, 396 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: he was hurt, he looked a little rusty, but we 397 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: need to see the Colin Murray we were able to 398 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: see in the beginning of the season. And again, the 399 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: pressure should not be there of trying to be in 400 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: the MVY. Not saying he was, but you see it 401 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: and you hear it. It's hard to ignore it. A 402 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 1: season low fifty six percent completion percentage. Here is the 403 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 1: quarterback on his performance against the lines. Obviously, I can 404 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: be better, you know, I think, and you look back 405 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: at the film, there's definitely gonna be some things that 406 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 1: I wish I could have back, or I wish I 407 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: could have done differently. But at the end of the day, 408 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 1: you know, we got to move on. We got a 409 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: quick week against a great team, and that's the hope. 410 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: Now he's you learn from and correct and you get better. 411 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: And the other aspects of what we did not see 412 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: on Sunday was a run game. Chase Edmonds comes back. 413 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: You already brought it up, m J. James Conner, those 414 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: two fourteen combined carries, but just three and the first half, 415 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: and it just was you need that run game to 416 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: help your passing attack. Yeah, and you know we'd have 417 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 1: to go down and down in distance, and you got 418 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 1: to give the Lions a lot of cardit. I know that, 419 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: you know it's more about the Cardinals at this point, 420 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 1: but they were just they wanted it. And obviously the 421 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: Cardinals once you fall down like that, he kind of 422 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure it takes Cliff off his script when it 423 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,360 Speaker 1: comes to Colin plays. But the whole idea was when 424 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 1: Edmunds and Connor with a one two punch, this team 425 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: was rolling a lot of a lot of runs and 426 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 1: then play action. Look, probably beat the Rams. They ran 427 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: the ball forty times. Chase had one hundred and twenty yards. 428 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 1: He had a fifty four yard run average, ten yards 429 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 1: of carry. And to me, he's healthy. He's been chopping 430 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: at the bit to get out there. And again, I 431 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 1: know that you maybe they the thing is the Lion's 432 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: going that nine minute drive, eight fifty and the Cardel's 433 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 1: home to a field goal. Now you're not, I mean, 434 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: you're standing on the side of just waiting and waiting 435 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: and waiting. But it wasn't like they were outdoors. So 436 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: at that point you just want to counter there. But 437 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,479 Speaker 1: like I said, it's just when you get behind the sticks, 438 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you can't run the football like 439 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: you want to. Third down was okay, but again they're 440 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 1: just in. You know, Christian Kirk, when I went back 441 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 1: and looked, he probably could have had two more catches. 442 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: I'm sure when he watches the film, and he was 443 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: targeted twelve times. AJ Green was eleven, zach Ertz was eight. 444 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: So that's where Hopkins targets were going. And Wesley, you know, 445 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 1: he's he's a guy that's on the roster, but he's 446 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: he's gonna have to be able to catch the football 447 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 1: because he's gonna be called upon again when the pecking order, 448 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: you need some production from other receivers. Speaking of zach Ertz, 449 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 1: let's get his thoughts on what happened on Sunday. I mean, 450 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,239 Speaker 1: you evaluate the process. Is the process good. If the 451 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: process is good and it's just a poor result, and 452 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: you stick with it. If the process needs to be evaluated, 453 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 1: you evaluate it and make some changes. I think the 454 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: process that we have is a good process. I don't 455 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: think we need to go out there and reinvent the wheel. 456 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, we got to 457 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: play better on Sunday. It's up to the players. I mean, 458 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: the coaching schemes are there are the same ones that 459 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: we were freaking rolling with. You've got to start fast. 460 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 1: Can't have penalties. I mean it's the NFL. You can't 461 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 1: give teams free yards, whether it be false starts, whether 462 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: it be holding, whether it be personal fouls. Two false 463 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: start penalties, three roughing the passer penalties, one not necessary 464 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 1: roughness penalty, and one pass interference penalty. Four times the 465 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: Cardinals committed a penalty that resulted in a first down. Now, 466 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,360 Speaker 1: it was the first game post DeAndre Hopkins, but Drew, 467 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,439 Speaker 1: We've seen this team play without de hop Granted it 468 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: was with Colte McCoy as the quarterback. I don't think 469 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: one player. Now it was just small sample size against 470 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: the Lives, but one player can't make that much, that 471 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,679 Speaker 1: big of a difference, especially against that kind of a defense. No, 472 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: the one player does not result in that outcome when 473 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: you know you have that large of a margin of 474 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: victory by a team that doesn't actually warrant it. But 475 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 1: I will say this, I think you go back to 476 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 1: Since the bye week, if I'm not mistaken, they have 477 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: not been able to establish the run. Before the bye 478 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: they were rolling, they were able to do all these things, 479 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 1: whether or not teams started making adjustments. We've actually seen 480 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 1: Kyler running the ball more, which is exactly the opposite 481 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: of what he said he wanted to do. You know, 482 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 1: it becomes more difficult at that point because now he's 483 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: more involved with the run game. So hopefully they can 484 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 1: sit there and say, Okay, we have Chase Back, we 485 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 1: have James James going, we need to establish the run. Now. 486 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,120 Speaker 1: Granted they've gone against a good run defense in Chicago. 487 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 1: They held Delvin Cook last night to the pedestrian numbers. 488 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: But the last two weeks against teams that you would 489 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: think they would at least establish the run against, they 490 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: haven't been able to do that. So I think the 491 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: self Scott will hopefully reveal those type of things. You 492 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: can really hone in on that. But DeAndre Hopkins, yes, 493 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: he is irreplaceable, but their strengthened. We've talked about that 494 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: with the jj wad effect. You've talked about all these things, 495 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 1: and I think the big thing that I would like 496 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: to see moving forward and that hasn't really been talked 497 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 1: about a lot. Is we say, there's so many veterans 498 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 1: on this team, right, there's a difference between being a 499 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 1: veteran and being a leader. They're not synonymous. You don't 500 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: have to be one to be the other. But I 501 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: think that the leadership on this team needs to step up. 502 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: And that's where those guys that you know, the I 503 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: was on the team with, would we'd have these closed 504 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: door meetings that nobody would know about. You'd have these 505 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: type of things, the saying, guys, we can't allow this 506 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: to become a two three week thing. We need to 507 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: nip this in the butt right now, because look, DeAndre 508 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:37,959 Speaker 1: is not coming back. We don't have him, and so 509 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: AJ's got to step up. Christian Kirk has to step up. 510 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: You know, he's got to go catch the football. He 511 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 1: can't let it hit him in his chest and let 512 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: it come to him. Those type of things you need 513 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 1: to the little things are what it's going to really 514 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: make a difference. And it's just a matter of getting 515 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,159 Speaker 1: back to that you talked about. It's it's the d 516 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 1: YJ do your job focused on that and that's what 517 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: they did such a good job of and the first 518 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 1: portion season that allowed them to have the success up 519 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 1: to that point, but you're not guaranteed anything moving forward. Well, 520 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,919 Speaker 1: and Craig has a really good stat here in the 521 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: last couple of games, how much are throwing the ball 522 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: versus running the football? Now when you're down to the 523 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 1: Rams twenty seven thirteen. You know, the ram scored fourteen 524 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 1: points in this third quarter thirteen and the second quarter 525 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: Cardinals finished with ten. So what's the number, Craig in 526 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: the last two games throwing versus rushing fifty six more 527 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: passing plays than rushing plays over the past two games 528 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: now when you're trailing, Yes, and that was the part 529 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 1: that's been the issue since the bye week that earlier 530 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: in the year, during the seven h start, you're getting 531 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 1: off to leads so you can run the ball more. Yeah, 532 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: I think that's that reminder right as Cliff as the 533 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: play caller of somebody's in his ear continue or run 534 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: the ball, whether it's Coogs or with somebody else like that, 535 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: making a commitment to the run of having these goals 536 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: of the week going into that right of hey, I'm 537 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: not going to abandon the run. And Ba was the 538 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 1: worst at the right we would get down and all 539 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 1: of a sudden it was chicken little, the sky's fallen in. 540 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 1: We'd end up with like ten runs and we're sitting 541 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 1: over there. Can we just call everybody knows we have 542 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 1: the most simple run game ever, but we just need 543 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: to try and run the ball right. And again, it's 544 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: a commitment. But the teams that are the top five 545 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 1: and rushing in this league, and Arizona was there for 546 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: the first portion of the season, you make a commitment. 547 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: It's a concerted effort to say we're going to continue 548 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: to try and wear them down. We're going to do 549 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: all these things because it might not. You know, it's 550 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 1: not as sexy. It's not doing these things. But those 551 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 1: four yard games, those five yard games, those six yard games, 552 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: they start to become greater and greater as the game 553 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: goes on. But not only that, as I was talking 554 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: about in pregame before Detroit, when you have to start 555 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,199 Speaker 1: getting guys committed to that run to truly stop it, 556 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: that's where you can put anybody over the middle of 557 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 1: the field. You'll see Zach Kerts, you'll see all these things. 558 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: The other thing that I don't think we've talked enough about, 559 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: and maybe it's just me because I haven't done a 560 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: deep dive into the study, but losing Max Williams being 561 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: able to have him as a blocker and a pass 562 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: catcher out there, and no disrespect against that Kertz because 563 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: he's a phenomenal pass catcher, But I don't see the 564 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 1: same type of production in the run game that you 565 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: would think or scaring a d defense as much as 566 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: a Max Williams type of a guy. Well, I mean 567 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 1: they missed Max last year in the season. I couldn't 568 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: agree more because he's the perfect tight end for eleven personnel. Now, 569 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,959 Speaker 1: zach Ertz has high effort, he can chip and then release. 570 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: Obviously he's you know, probably better in the open field 571 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 1: on third down. But I that's a great point. I 572 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 1: haven't heard that all year. Um high efforts the word 573 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: for not good blockers, no disrespect. Well, I'm just saying 574 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: it's not like he's an empty chair out there. Yeah 575 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: he's trying, yes he is, and he's just he's not 576 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: built the same way to go out there and take 577 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,680 Speaker 1: on these d ns. Right, You're not going to ask 578 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: him to block a Robert Quinn a lot during the season. 579 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: You're not going to ask him to go in there 580 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: and try and go against the type of guys that 581 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: you have to each and every week. Yeah, because that 582 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 1: was the eleven personnel and you know, sometimes you got 583 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 1: to protect the edges and you know, you just look 584 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: at you know, we're gonna get into the defense in 585 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 1: the next segment. But it's just that the offensive line 586 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: hasn't been, you know, the same over the last couple 587 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 1: of weeks. You're you're you're mixing and matching. You're losing 588 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: your your top center. And Rodney Hudson, even though Garcia's 589 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: coming here and done a nice job, you know, hump 590 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: and and Beecham. You know they can play better. Everyone 591 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: could play better, Pew, but I mean, you just wish 592 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: they can have the same five guys. And every team's 593 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 1: dealing with this. But you know, Rodney Hudson's a big 594 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: loss because I think he helps Kyler with the calls. 595 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,880 Speaker 1: He goes to the sidelines, has conversations because he's he's 596 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 1: kind of like Ef Futton when he talks, you listen. 597 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 1: And unfortunately he wasn't out there, and hopefully they can 598 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: get him back soon. I don't know what the time 599 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: frame is going to be there because this is gonna 600 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: be a huge map matchup against the Forrest Buckner. Yeah. 601 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: Kingsbury earlier on Tuesday mentioned Rodney Hudson still and COVID protocols, 602 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: so we await to see whether he'll test out of 603 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: that before Saturday. Kyler Murray, though, knows that this offense 604 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 1: is capable of a whole lot more. We know who 605 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: we are, you know, we know the guys. We've got 606 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: to look when we got the talent, we got the coaches, 607 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: you've got the leadership, I mean, all of us there. 608 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,360 Speaker 1: It's just about locking into playing, playing all to our 609 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: capabilities and that, you know, screw everything else pretty much. 610 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 1: You know, we have to we have to be you 611 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: know how we were at the beginning of season, you know, 612 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: in the middle of the season as well. But I 613 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 1: wish I'll lock ina be better seven and oh start. 614 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: I mean it was there at one point. It didn't 615 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: just up and walk out. It went somewhere. So the 616 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 1: Cardinals need to find it and return to form, and 617 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 1: hopefully again that happens this Saturday. The Day Pash Podcast 618 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: episode twenty one, featuring former Cardinals quarterbacks Carson Palmer and 619 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 1: oh Hey, Drew Stanton is on the Day Pass podcast. 620 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: That premiere is on Wednesday.

This is the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network 631 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: golf waiting for the snap. He's got a straight drop, 632 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: looks right, throws right in the end zone and it's 633 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: pulled in Flora, touchdown, caught by Josh Reynolds to make 634 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: it sixteen nothing Lions, My goodness, Walls Golf takes and 635 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: it's play action. Rolls right, throws right, white open, caught, touchdown, Covinda. 636 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: The Lions have opened it up. They laid twenty three 637 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: to three. They capitalize off the Kyler Murray interception. Whether 638 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 1: it was Jared Goff or Craig Netflix Reynolds. The Lions 639 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: could do what they wanted when they wanted against the 640 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: Cardinals defense. On Sundays, we continue here on the Cardinals 641 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: Red Sea Reports thirty to twelve, the final at Ford Field. 642 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: When you look back, m Jay as far as the defense, 643 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: more bothersome that Jared Goff had one of his best performances, 644 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: but he always plays well against the Cardinals. Or Reynolds, 645 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: an undrafted free agent making his first start, eclipsed one 646 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: hundred yards and really was hardly touched by that Cardinals defense, 647 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: probably more the run defense, just because you know he 648 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: had played the week before, but you know, he was 649 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 1: a practice squad guy, and then obviously he got a 650 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: chance based on their injuries with some of the running 651 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: backs and including Swift. But twenty six carries, one hundred 652 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: and twelve yards four point three a pop. He had 653 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: a twenty seven yard run. But also you know, when 654 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: you look at Jared Goff, he was very efficient twenty 655 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 1: one to twenty six two sixteen three touchdown passes, quarterback 656 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: rating close to one forty. They just could not get 657 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: him down, I mean, and it was very similar to 658 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford staff who was twenty three to thirty three touchdowns. 659 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: So that's six touchdowns in the last couple of games, 660 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: and the defense is not being able to force turnovers 661 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: and just couldn't get the Lions off the field either. 662 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: Drew on third down six of thirteen. But and as 663 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 1: we talked about on Cardinal Talk, six of eights on 664 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: third and five or less, exactly, that's manageable and you 665 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: can do whatever you want as an offense. Yeah, they 666 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: ran it a couple of times. They were able to 667 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: do those things. They were able to stay multiple on 668 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 1: how they were trying to attack. And you know, I 669 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: think that sometimes we get lulled the sleepers, this misconception 670 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: that practice squad running backs aren't great. There's so many 671 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: running backs out there, and they're all talented. If there's 672 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: holes open, they're gonna hit him. I mean Kerwin Williams. 673 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: I remember when I was here, we called him up 674 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: and he had over one hundred yards rushing. These guys 675 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: are capable. They're just waiting for the opportunity. They're sitting 676 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: that back, they're waiting and they know that again this 677 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: is a resume builder for him. Everybody knows who he 678 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: is now. Before he was just a guy that was 679 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: trying to scratch it out on the practice squad and 680 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 1: now he's trying to assert himself on that fifty three 681 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: man roster which they signed him to, and he hearned 682 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 1: himself a spot. So that's one thing that I think 683 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: that you know, we keep saying, like before we say 684 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: his name practice squad back, and I like, yeah, all 685 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 1: these guys are getting paid for a reason. Jared went 686 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: out and he's had success. I think he's eight and 687 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 1: one against the Cardinals now. And anytime you start building 688 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: that kind of rapport, do you feel really good about 689 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: a quarterback as a quarterback going into a team that 690 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: you know very well that you've had a lot of 691 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: success against. But also I talked about this pregame, he's 692 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: found his go to guy in am and Ross Saint Brown. 693 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: The kids talented. He's a young rookie, but he's from USC. 694 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: He understands the ins and outs of it. He's his 695 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup in that offense. And then when you mix 696 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 1: in Josh Ronalds, you mix them a couple of deep 697 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: shots and he's very efficient and they were able to 698 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 1: just continue to move the ball down the field, do 699 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: the game plan that we said has been very bothersome 700 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: for the Cardinals up to this point of control the 701 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: clock and then let Kyler either be frustrated or play 702 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: into mistakes and turn the ball over. Jared did a 703 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: great job of that. He protected the ball and on 704 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: the flip side of that, they converted those into touchdowns. Right, 705 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: They drove the ball the length of the field and 706 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: got touchdowns. Where this defense has been so good at 707 00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: holding people to field goals, defending every single lad of 708 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 1: grass that they possibly can, it just wasn't the case. 709 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 1: And then we weren't able to keep pace. Yeah, Saint 710 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 1: Brown eleven targets, eight catches from ninety yards thirty seven 711 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: yard touchdown and then Reynolds six or sixty eight twenty 712 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 1: two yard touchdown. And to me, after the first possession, 713 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 1: I thought the Cardinals did a nice job on that 714 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 1: nine minute drive to where they help him do a 715 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: field goal. But after that the tackling was poor. And 716 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: this once again the secondary is getting picked on. That 717 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: was the strength of his football team. And then you're 718 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: hoping the front seven can get to the quarterback, but 719 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 1: put a Baker missed a few tackles. Jalen Thompson missed 720 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:37,239 Speaker 1: a tackle Kennard. I mean when I went back and 721 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: watched the film after that first possession, it was like 722 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: the almost forgot how to tackle, and that's that was 723 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: one of their strengths going into the season. Goff was 724 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: sacked twice, hit five times, but for the most part 725 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 1: he was uprights and could do what he wanted to 726 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 1: against the Cardinals defense. Linebacker Jordan Hicks on what happened 727 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: on Sunday, We just didn't, man, We didn't make plays. 728 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: We didn't couldn't get off the field on are down 729 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: on defense, had too many, way too many penalties, and 730 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 1: it felt like a very uncharacteristic game of you know 731 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: what's gotten us to this point. You look at that 732 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 1: opening drive, two third downs converted, and later in the 733 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 1: second half there was a possession in which they were 734 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 1: back to back roughing the passer penalties in which another 735 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: three points was scored against the Cardinals. Again, it adds 736 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: up to a thirty to twelve loss. Zach Allen postgame 737 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 1: with Paul Calbisi here and there, it's just, you know, 738 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 1: guys that's not doing their job. You know, we'll have 739 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:32,799 Speaker 1: ten guys doing a job at one guys, I have 740 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: a gap or you know, this is this so you know, 741 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: we just got to learn how to play as eleven 742 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: and just the rain it in and just know and 743 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: we need to get a stop. We gotta get it. So, yeah, 744 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 1: we just gotta figure it out. This team defensively is 745 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 1: still number five in scoring. They are still a very 746 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 1: good defense. But going to your point, Drew about one game, 747 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: it was a bad performance and I don't think we've 748 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 1: seen this defense. They've given up their share of plays, 749 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: but every defense does. But for full sixty minutes, that was, 750 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 1: as Jordan Hicks said, uncharacteristic. It was, you know, it 751 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 1: completely was. It was out of character for them, and 752 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 1: hopefully they'll get it corrected. But at the same time, 753 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: I think you can look at defense different ways. Right 754 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: You either play collectively and Zach allenhead on the head, 755 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,799 Speaker 1: we didn't play collectively as eleven guys, and you have 756 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 1: to play as a unit within this structure of a 757 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: defense because they don't have a game changer quote unquote 758 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: right now, they don't. They don't have a guy that's 759 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: gonna make a splash play like we're accustomed to seeing. 760 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 1: Around the league of a T. J. Watt to get 761 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: a sack fumble to end of game, or some guy 762 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: in the secondary to get a pick. They're all very solid, 763 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 1: they're all very good, but they have to play as 764 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 1: a unit. They don't have a ball hawking safety that's 765 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 1: going to go out there and pick something off out 766 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: of the center field like Ed Reid. They don't have 767 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 1: a linebacker that's going to make a d wash type 768 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 1: of player as the Arizona Cardinals are used to. I mean, 769 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: they have very solid players, they're young, they mix and 770 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 1: match and do really well and play complimentary football as 771 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: a unit, but they don't have a guy right now 772 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 1: that you can say, man, this guy can change the 773 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 1: trajectory of the game. And if you don't have that, 774 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: then everybody needs to play together. And that's not what 775 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,919 Speaker 1: transpired unfortunately on Sunday, and we saw the results of it. Well, 776 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,359 Speaker 1: I mean it's just you know, they need more from 777 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 1: Chandler Jones. I mean again, he had a clean pocket. 778 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: He was sixteen for twenty four, one hundred and twenty 779 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 1: nine yards and under pressure he was five for six 780 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 1: forty six And you know what the difference was in 781 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 1: the game. The Lions did not drop a pass. Cardinals 782 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 1: dropped some footballs, and that obviously is going to not 783 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: allow you to pick up a third down and move 784 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: the stick. So again they got to go back to 785 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 1: the basics and just try to figure it out because 786 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 1: there's the last two games a defense. I mean, they 787 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 1: again we've talked about this a defense. They wouldn't have 788 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 1: ten wins without this defense. So I mean, but they 789 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:41,759 Speaker 1: got to carry their water in both both sides and 790 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:45,359 Speaker 1: including special teams. Yeah, I mean, those drops are drive killers, right, 791 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 1: They stall drives out and you don't have those, and 792 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,240 Speaker 1: we're not used to seeing these, especially like the blaring 793 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:55,320 Speaker 1: ones are glaring ones that Christian Kirk had. The other 794 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 1: thing to me that was completely because it ended up 795 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: kind of normal or kind of equal. Where are those penalties, 796 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,280 Speaker 1: those penalties that allowed that two minute drive. That's thirty 797 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 1: yards of free yardage that you get on top of it, 798 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 1: and it's just it absolutely puts you back on your 799 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: heels and allows them to go in there and make 800 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: it seventeen to nothing. That to me, three roughing the 801 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: passers is just that's completely controllable by you. The one 802 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 1: that hitting the helmet by Chandler. That's hard because you 803 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: know it's a little bit ticky tack, but that's what 804 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 1: they're calling. You can't do that if you can't get 805 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 1: to the quarterback, just be smart about it. The other 806 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: roll up, I mean it looked, you know, it's subjective 807 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: when it happens, and he kind of tried to roll 808 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 1: them up. But again they're calling that. You just have 809 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,879 Speaker 1: to be smart. If you wipe those two out, then 810 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 1: they're not going down and doing it. And it's all 811 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: of these things. It's everybody had a hand unfortunately, and 812 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 1: this loss and as long as you own up to 813 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: it and you're accountable for it, just don't repeat the mistake. 814 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,919 Speaker 1: So where does this defense go from here? Here's Jordan Hicks. Yeah, 815 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 1: you do more, right, you do more. You go back 816 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: into the into the leaven. You know, you study harder, 817 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: you work after practice, you detail, you're the game plan right, 818 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 1: Guys got to come in and make sure that you 819 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 1: know the game plan is fully set and then at 820 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 1: the end of the day, we got to execute right. 821 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 1: We've got to make the plays that that come our way, 822 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 1: and we've got to find a way to get our 823 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 1: offense more possessions, more more opportunities to go down to score, 824 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: and it's exactly what this defense had been doing earlier 825 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: in the season. It's a short week. The players were 826 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 1: off on Monday, back on the field on Tuesday, and 827 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: they'll be on the field Wednesday and Thursday as well, 828 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: leading up to a big one on Christmas Day against 829 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts, which we'll touch on in a matter 830 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 1: of moments here on the Cardinals Red Sea Report, as 831 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 1: we continue every Tuesday eleven am throughout the calendar year 832 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 1: talking all things Arizona Cardinals and unfortunately talking about a 833 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 1: Cardinals loss here thirty to twelve to the Detroit Lions, 834 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: dropping the Cardinals to ten and four on the season. 835 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 1: And there is still time m Jada, which you keep saying, 836 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 1: is you've got to win now one more game and 837 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 1: that clinches a playoff spot. Once you get to the postseason, 838 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 1: then you wipe the slate clean and it becomes a 839 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: brand new year. Yeah. In the NFL, you got to 840 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: avoid losing streak, especially this time of the year, and 841 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:11,799 Speaker 1: this team, that was the first time they've lost back 842 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,959 Speaker 1: to back games. You know, they got an opportunity to 843 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: play a really good team. Maybe the Cardinals will come 844 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 1: out and give it their best against the Colts, and 845 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:20,879 Speaker 1: then they got to play Dallas. So there's still three 846 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: games where they could still jockey for a position, but 847 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to play much better than they have 848 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: in the last couple of games. Coming up Wednesday, Episode 849 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: eleven of Cardinals Folk Tales entitled snow Day to Tampa Bay. 850 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 1: We look back at that snowstorm in New England that 851 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 1: played up parts and this Cardinals team advancing to Super 852 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 1: Bowl forty three.

Second and eight Colts. After thirty three, Taylor's 857 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: got it, nice Haw, he could go all the way 858 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 1: fast live forty heyst to the thirty. They're trying to 859 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: chase him down to the tenth five touchtot calls Touchstoft 860 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 1: talks sixty seven yards US two to go two minutes, 861 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 1: one second level. That might have done it. It did. 862 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 1: The Patriots lose the Annapolis Colts twenty seven to seventeen. 863 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: Bill Rozinski on Westwood One with the play by play 864 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 1: from Saturday at Jonathan Taylor rushed for one hundred and 865 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 1: seventy yards, including that sixty seven yard touchdown. Eighteen of 866 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 1: his twenty nine carries came between the tackles. Eighteen of 867 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 1: his first twenty eight carries came with eight or more 868 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 1: defenders in the box. And that is the challenge this 869 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 1: week for the Cardinals Drew is to figure out how 870 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 1: to stop the league's number one running back. Leads the 871 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:58,279 Speaker 1: league in rushing yards, rushing touchdowns, and a whole bunch. 872 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,360 Speaker 1: There's an entire list of what he's accomplished here in 873 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: year two. We don't have enough time to get through 874 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 1: it all, but we do know that priority number one 875 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 1: is Jonathan Taylor. It starts with them, just like it 876 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 1: started with Derick Henry. And the easiest way to stop 877 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,240 Speaker 1: that is don't let him get started. Get run. Blitz, 878 00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 1: run blitz, run blitz. Get guys in the backfield, especially 879 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 1: with how good a tacklers these guys are. I mean, 880 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 1: we talked about it all the way up until last 881 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: week when they had a couple of mistackles, and we're 882 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,320 Speaker 1: not used to seeing that with either one of these safeties. 883 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 1: They're so good, and you see what happens when you 884 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: don't get them to the ground, and those mistackles become 885 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,839 Speaker 1: longer yarded runs, and really those are what can start 886 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: putting you on your heels and making you feel like 887 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 1: you can't stop the run. So I think Vance is 888 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,320 Speaker 1: going to have a great plan. I think he is 889 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,040 Speaker 1: going to run blitz. We saw it throughout the course 890 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: of this year. Second down, second along. He's trying to 891 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 1: be the aggressor, which I absolutely love as a defensive coordinator. 892 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 1: It's just sometimes people are recognizing that they're picking it up, 893 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 1: they're using more of a max protection to make sure 894 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,439 Speaker 1: safeties are blocked and then pushing the ball down the field. 895 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 1: So you got to make sure you get home on 896 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 1: these run blets is You've got to make sure that 897 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 1: everybody's in their gap, they're doing the right thing. And 898 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 1: if it's not necessarily the safety getting home, it's the 899 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: back of getting home. It's the d lineman that's got 900 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,520 Speaker 1: to win his block. All these things. To your point, Chandler, 901 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 1: you know these guys that are capable of doing it, 902 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 1: and hopefully we'll see a team that's much more hungry 903 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 1: and effort driven than we saw it last week, because 904 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 1: all those guys have shown they're capable of doing it 905 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: each and every week and committing to it. It's just 906 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 1: doing it consistently no matter who's in there. I'm kind 907 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 1: of being facetious here, but maybe not. I'm putting eight 908 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 1: guys in a box. It's forced Hilton and Pittman and 909 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 1: beat me on the outside because nine in the box. Yeah, 910 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, like commit to it. But I 911 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: also think you have to be careful because you can't 912 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: just load the box. I mean, how his numbers versus 913 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,799 Speaker 1: a loaded box are still really good. Just because it's 914 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 1: the case, I want to I want to re establish 915 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 1: that line of scrimmage. I want to push it, and 916 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: I want to be the aggressor if I'm the de 917 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 1: coordinator and don't let him get started, just don't even 918 00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 1: let him get into a rhythm and feel like he's 919 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,239 Speaker 1: starting to get a push or leaning forward because he 920 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 1: is so talented and if you give him any little piece. 921 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 1: I mean playing against some of the best running backs 922 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 1: in this league and watching it from afar when Adrian 923 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 1: Peterson was at his best, or guys like that that 924 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 1: the structure of the offense went. Everything started and ended 925 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 1: with that type of a caliber of a guy. You've 926 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,319 Speaker 1: got to try and do it, and you're sitting there 927 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,239 Speaker 1: just holding on because it's a sixty minute commitment to 928 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 1: saying we can't do anything. We have to bottle this 929 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,480 Speaker 1: guy's up, and the corners have to put their big 930 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,360 Speaker 1: boy pads on. They're gonna have to make tackles the safeties. 931 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 1: I mean, the beauty that they have is they've got 932 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,840 Speaker 1: three linebackers they can play with, and hopefully they can 933 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,920 Speaker 1: do that. If that's what they decide to do, is 934 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 1: to get out there to make sure he can't even 935 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,799 Speaker 1: get started. Well, I mean they ran for a two 936 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,920 Speaker 1: hundred yards against the Patriots. I mean, Polichick didn't have 937 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: anything to say after the gaming. He apologized, But yeah, 938 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 1: I mean Carson Wentz. I mean, I think ten of 939 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 1: his fourteen games, he's been over about sixty five to 940 00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 1: seventy pro football grade. It doesn't make a lot of mistakes. 941 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 1: They don't rely on him, but it'd be nice to 942 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:02,280 Speaker 1: You're not gonna shut Tailor down. If you can contain 943 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 1: him and don't let him get to the second level, 944 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,759 Speaker 1: maybe you force Wentz to beat you. Easier said than done, though, Yeah, well, 945 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:09,759 Speaker 1: I think that's the key that you want to do. 946 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 1: But Carson has the m of if he tries to 947 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 1: go out and win a football game, he can just 948 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 1: as easily lose one. And that's really where you want 949 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 1: to have him do that. He tries to do too 950 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: much with the football. He makes stupid mistakes to try 951 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,319 Speaker 1: and scramble, and he gets sack fumbles. He'll hold onto 952 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 1: the ball. We just got to get home. Thirty pass attempts. 953 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 1: That's the magic number. Thirty or fewer. The Colts are 954 00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 1: six and oh more than thirty. Colts are two and six. 955 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 1: Stop the run, make Carson Wentz throw to beat you, 956 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:38,680 Speaker 1: and the Cardinals having a good opportunity to get that 957 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 1: eleventh win and lock up a playoff spot.
