It doesn't get any better than that, boy, 13 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: unleash the far. Week one for the Arizona Cardinals was 14 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: fill in the blank. Yeah, okay, I'll go a supersized 15 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: role reversal as in the Chiefs just did to the 16 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,399 Speaker 1: Cardinals with the Cardinals did to the Titans to open 17 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: last season a KC KO And that old line about 18 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: how there's no second chance at a first impression, isn't 19 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: that how the line goes wolf something like that. Yeah, Paulina, 20 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: how bad you are first impressions. You know that's because 21 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 1: it's not really true in the NFL when both number 22 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: one seeds last year got destroyed in season openers. So 23 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: you know when in the NFL that axiom does not 24 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: hold trill. Yeah, you know, I'm just saying, no, Polly. 25 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: Sometimes you go to parties, some of these social events, Polly, 26 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: and then suddenly it blows up in your face because 27 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: you make awful first impressions right there. That's okay, Paul, 28 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: I mean, your second impression is much better than your first. 29 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: Let's hope the same thing happens for the Arizona Cardinals 30 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: in a matter of moments, Ron Wolfley, and it's not 31 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,559 Speaker 1: a moment too soon, you will get dorched. Greg Dorch 32 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: our guest on the Big Red Rage, presented by Santan 33 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: Ford and Gilbert. We are santan Ford in Back Tonight, 34 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 1: brought to you by fine demandion of Americans. You're truly 35 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: and Greg Dortch and we'll get into all that, but 36 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: first let's talk about what exactly happened in the season opener. 37 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 1: There are two kinds of people in this world. Ron 38 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: Wolfley not to get all philosophical. There are those who 39 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: use the snooze button and those who do not. And 40 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 1: the Cardinals most definitely seemingly used the snooze button in 41 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 1: week one, and here's hoping they wake up in week two. Yeah, Paul, 42 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. Um Listen, this should be 43 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,399 Speaker 1: a wake up call to them. I don't know why, though, 44 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: you'd go out in week one at home where you 45 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 1: know you've struggled to play well, and then you're playing 46 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. Look everybody, it's Patrick Mahomes, it's 47 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: Andy Reid over there, and a lot other very very 48 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 1: talented human beings, And why you come out with a 49 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: sense of urgency and intensity. I honestly, I mean, hopefully 50 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: that's gonna be something that's going to be in the 51 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,679 Speaker 1: rear view mirror for this team going forward. And they're 52 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: gonna come out and ball out in week two on 53 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: the road where they've played well. Maybe they just sort 54 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: of forgot what regular season football is all about, the 55 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: intensity and urgency and energy it takes. I don't know, 56 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: because it's a great question. Obviously, you have a marquee 57 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: opponent coming in, it's Week one you're at home, accounts 58 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 1: the whole thing. Um, but here's Kyler Murray after a 59 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: forty four twenty one home loss to the Chiefs. When 60 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: you get to be like that, you know at home 61 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: game one, yeah, it's got to be a wake up 62 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: call for whoever you know felt complacent or whatever. Internally, 63 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: you know, you got look in the mirror individually and um, 64 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: you know, do you really want to be here? Do 65 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: you really want to be great? Like? What? What? What 66 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: drives you? Like? Those are the questions I feel like, 67 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: you know, need to be asked. And there are a 68 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: lot of questions coming out of that game in week one, 69 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: are there not? Yeah, Polly, there are you know. And 70 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: again I was really really disappointed after week one on 71 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage and how the line of scrimmage fared. 72 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: I know that I'm old Polly. I know it's old school. 73 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: I know I'm a traditionalist, but my goodness, the physicality 74 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: on the line of scrimmage on both sides of the 75 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: ball was not what it needed to be. It was 76 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: not And I think JJ Watt coming back is going 77 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: to do an awful lot if in fact JJ Watt 78 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: is ready to play and able to play this Sunday. 79 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: I think him coming back is going to have a 80 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: huge impact on that front seven and how they're all 81 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: going to play. Hopefully that's going to be the case. 82 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: And also justin pew and bringing back a guy that 83 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: is a hardcore veteran, a guy that is a master technician, 84 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 1: and a guy that makes her offensive line better. All 85 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: it takes is one breakdown out of those five guys 86 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: on the offensive line, and suddenly you can't run the 87 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: ball the way that you want to be able to 88 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 1: run the ball. Suddenly you can't protect your quarterback the 89 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: way that you want to be able to protect your quarterback. 90 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: And I think it was a meltdown of the line 91 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Because of 92 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs Pally. You know they're going to 93 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: be able to throw the ball, but when they can 94 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: run the ball, Fallly, that opens up the entire playbook. 95 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: When they had thirty three first downs sixty six plays, 96 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: let that hang in the air for a minute. So 97 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 1: it was both sides of the ball, There's no question 98 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: about that. The offensive line you when most of the 99 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: last season, and you most definitely saw it in the 100 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 1: playoff game where right guard was a liability, and then 101 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: he went into this game where left guard was an issue. 102 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: You had a third stringer in there, a guy who 103 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 1: had played center almost the entirety of cam So that 104 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: was suboptimal and Chris Jones and company took advantage of that, 105 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,679 Speaker 1: no question. But at the same time, you know when 106 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: you have guys saying that we got punched in the 107 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: mouth Devon Kennard yesterday, Hila Murray, Kyler Murray saying after 108 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: the game as well, you can't feel yourself in this league. Yeah, 109 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: you get embarrassed. Obviously, there was more going on and 110 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: it demands a certain level of leadership. I mean, Wolf 111 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: is a former team captain. I'm guessing you would agree 112 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: with that. In fact, here's zach Ertz earlier today, just 113 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: when he's asked about his quarterback and and what goes 114 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: on beyond just the field. I mean, I definitely think 115 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: he's more vocal. Even after the game when we got 116 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: a bus kicked on Sunate, he was a guy going 117 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: around in the locker room kind of telling everyone we're 118 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: gonna be all right, We're gonna be all right. So 119 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:34,799 Speaker 1: for me, I think he's just taking that next step. 120 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: Everyone wants to finish product in today's society, and that's 121 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: just not reality. Everyone's got to grow up. Zach Ertz. Yeah, 122 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: zach Ertz earlier today. I know your reaction to that. 123 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: And how far does leadership goes at media speak or 124 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 1: is that a real entity? No, that's that is real, PAULI. 125 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: This is the next step that Kyler Murray has got 126 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 1: to take. Um, it's not just about walking around and 127 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: build up your teammates or even walking around and holding 128 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: your teammates accountable. It's not all of that. It really 129 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: isn't it's actually doing. It's always going to be about 130 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,239 Speaker 1: doing first, Paul. And then you can say, but doing 131 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: and saying is what leadership is all about. I know 132 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: there are some guys that are really really heavy on 133 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: the doing part of it. And can I tell you 134 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: right now, I think of Larry Fitzgerald. I think of 135 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: Larry the doing. He was heavy, heavy on the doing. 136 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: Larry would say, of course, from time to time. He 137 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: was a leader so much of the time based on 138 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: the example, the model that he set for everybody else. 139 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: But he would speak up. And when Larry spoke from 140 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: time to time, because it wasn't very often, man, I'll 141 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: tell you what people listened, but you have to do 142 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: before you can say. And I think Kyler's already got 143 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: that credibility that he can walk around and say, let's go, 144 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: We're gonna be okay. Good news. Zach Ertz was a 145 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: full participant in practice day. Yeah, with that calf injury. 146 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: I was standing there, we were talking with JJ Watt. 147 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: He was limited today, Bud. He was back on the 148 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: field for the first time in recent memory. He said 149 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: he's tracking at this point tracking. He is hopeful of 150 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: playing Sunday. So it certainly sounds like JJ Watt and 151 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: Justin Pew said he is hopeful and hopefully tracking towards 152 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: playing on Sunday. And obviously that's a big three. If 153 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: the Cardinals get all those guys back in the lineup, yeah, 154 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: oh my goodness, that would be huge. It really would. 155 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: First of all offensively to get Justin Pew back because 156 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: that offensive line needs him as their left guard. But 157 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: then zach Ertz as well, That to me says, Okay, 158 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 1: what were we really missing in the first week of 159 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: the season. Well, the Cardinals were missing a lot of things, 160 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: but twelve personnel and a lot of twelve personnel where 161 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: you've got one back and two tight ends and Max 162 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: Williams being one of those, one of those stud tight ends, 163 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: and then having zach Ertz as the move the wide 164 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: receiver room has been a little nicked up.

We 224 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,839 Speaker 1: get paid a lot of money, but um, we definitely 225 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: put the work in and it shows off on Sunday, 226 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 1: so Greg, Wednesday and Thursday obviously big game plan days. 227 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: As you're preparing throughout the week. Right here, what what 228 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 1: do you specialize in? Do you do anything like red 229 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: zone on a Wednesday? When do you run red zone 230 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: offense or or rundown situation offense or third and obvious? 231 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: Do you do it every day? Uh? Well, on days 232 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: like this Thursdays, we focus on third down and raid zone. Um. 233 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 1: The earlier during the early days during the week we 234 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: do the base in stalls and the first down, first 235 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: first and second down passes. Um, but as you get 236 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: on through the week, we focus on red zone and 237 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: third down. So um, those out of it's importting downs 238 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: in NFL, man, you make plays on throw down, you 239 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: keep the sticks moving. Um, that's how you win games. 240 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: So well, yeah, no doubt about that. But in regard 241 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: to the red zone, what is the conversation offensively with 242 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: you guys? In regard to the red zone and how 243 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: do you fit into that, Greg, Yeah, it's just all 244 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: about being decisive. Given Kyler an option to look at 245 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: somebody he's comfortable throwing too. Just just being in the 246 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: right spots at the right time so he can make 247 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: the throw. He's not second guessing where you're going to be. 248 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: Everything happens faster down there, So um, just being precise. 249 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: Vans Joseph talked today about rookies earning his trust as 250 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: a receiver. You have to earn the trust of the quarterback, 251 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: don't you. Yeah, absolutely, not even not even just Kyler, 252 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: but Cliff. He's the shot caller. He caused the play. 253 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 1: So if he's comfortable putting you in there and comfortable 254 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: in you that you're gonna make a play, then you 255 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: got it. You know, when you make plays, this is 256 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: something that you do. Greg Man really really impressed your 257 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 1: fivees up. I can't even her five seven and explosive. 258 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 1: Why does five seven, one hundred and seventy five pounds 259 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: work in this league? Yeah, it's just about heart, man. 260 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: You got to you gotta be winning to stick your 261 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 1: nose and it run across the middle. Just do whatever 262 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 1: it takes to help the team and get a win. Man. 263 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,199 Speaker 1: I've been playing football since I was six years old 264 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: and this has been the only thing that I've wanted 265 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: to do. So now that everything's right here in front 266 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: of me, man, I just want to take full advantage 267 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: of that. So you've always spend this way. You've always 268 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: spen this way in regard to how you approach the 269 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: game and this fearless mentality. Man, if you take the 270 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: tape from I have tape from when I was playing 271 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: flag football when I was seven years old, it's been 272 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 1: the same way since. You know what, look as the 273 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: world's worst little league coach. Recently, I used to tell 274 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 1: our team because we go against some of these other teams, 275 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: are like, Okay, are they testing for HGH in this league? Right, 276 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: I'd be like, look, bigger isn't better? Kids, better is better? Yeah, 277 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: go play better baseball. Yeah, that's got to be the mentality. 278 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: You can still be better despite your size, right. Yeah. Absolutely, Man, 279 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: It's just about making plays and when your numbers called, 280 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: just taking advantage of those opportunities. Um, I don't know, man, 281 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: you see lots of guys around the league that aren't 282 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: big that make plays.

I was a fullback when I played, 288 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: and that was only two hundred and twenty two pounds 289 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: back in an era when fullbacks were all two hundred 290 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: and fifty pounds. Man, I always wanted to be the 291 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: guy that had the big button, the big thighs and wait, 292 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: two hundred and forty five pounds.

Man, Like I feel like I can make 299 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: somebody missing the phone booth. I'm hard to tackle, Um, 300 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: I have great hands. I'm just a dynamic player, and 301 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: I feel like when I have the ball in my hands, 302 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: people can see that. You know what I'm saying. So 303 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: I just want to continue to show the world that 304 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: um that I'm that type of player.

I definitely do. 333 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: I think it's important to think like that. Man. I 334 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: just try to think positive. Of course, as a human being, 335 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 1: we have thoughts that come into your head, like what 336 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: if you dropped this past where you get another chance 337 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: for you? You know what I'm saying. All of those 338 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: thoughts come in, But I just try to just clear 339 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: my mind, man, and just think that it's football. I've 340 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: been playing football, like I said, since I was seven 341 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: years old. And yeah it's the NFL, but it's football 342 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 1: at the end of the day. These guys put their 343 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 1: cleats on the same way I put my cleats on, 344 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: So it's football. Well, you didn't just make an impression 345 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: on Cliff Kingsbury and the coaches. Here's Aj Green when 346 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: we were in Nashville after the joint practice against the Titans. 347 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 1: AJ Green, I'll tell everybody about Dortsch Man, He's just 348 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: like his field for the game, his hands, his mentality 349 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: every day is unmatched. It don't matter who you put. 350 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 1: You put a first run in from him, we know 351 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,120 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. Like he's gonna he's gonna eat him up. 352 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: That's his mentality each day. So Andy, dortsch those guys, man, 353 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,479 Speaker 1: I go home and tell me. I watch every day 354 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,239 Speaker 1: about how they work, how they don't complain. They has 355 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: come out there and work each day. Man. That makes 356 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: me want to work every day, you know what I mean. 357 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: There's no wonder that Cliff Kingsbury by the end of 358 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: camp called you and Andy Isabelle at the Stars of Camp, 359 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: And I think sometimes someday it'll probably be the answer 360 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: to a trivia question. How many times were you cut 361 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: by NFL teams your first couple of years? So this 362 00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:01,199 Speaker 1: is my fifteen in four years. Man, I've been cut 363 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: multiple times and it sucks, but that's the reality of 364 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 1: this game that I play in the reality that moment, 365 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 1: How low was it a moment for you? How seriously 366 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: did you contemplate whether you were gonna go forward. It 367 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: was football. Yeah, yeah. So I got cut three times 368 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,920 Speaker 1: my rookie year, and at that moment, I'm like, okay, 369 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: it's football gonna be over. I'm not sure what I'm 370 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: gonna do. I started applying to regular jobs, but you know, 371 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,640 Speaker 1: Guy had something else in store. I decided to take 372 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: my talents and I wanted to go play Canadian football 373 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: because I was like, Okay, maybe I won't get a 374 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: shot in the NFL, but if I have crazy tape 375 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: in the CFL, maybe I can work my way back 376 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: to the NFL. So I wanted to do that, but 377 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: Guy had other plans. I said at home the whole 378 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: COVID year and got a car from Atlanta and they 379 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: put me on their Pea squad and then I spent 380 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 1: some time with them all the way up to OTAs 381 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: and then they cut me again, and I was like, okay, yeah, 382 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: I'm definitely gonna go CFL now because I just got 383 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 1: cut again. And then probably two days before I was 384 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: about to fly off to the Hamilton Tigers, um the 385 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals called me. Wow, man, So so tell us 386 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 1: now about the opener, because again you were the Cardinals 387 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: leading receivers seven grabs on nine targets. All of a sudden, 388 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 1: you had her serious, major role in that game plan. 389 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 1: What were your takeaways after that game and watching that film. Yeah, man, 390 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: it was a blessing. Um, Like I said I would, 391 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 1: This has been my dream to play in the NFL 392 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: since I was a kid. Man. It's just God is 393 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: so good man, just just placing me here, like it 394 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: could have been anybody here, but it's me, and I 395 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: just want to take advantage of the opportunity. But to 396 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: get a chance to play against Kansas City and my 397 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: homes and they were just in the Super Bowl a 398 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 1: couple of years ago. So just to go against that 399 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: my first ever career start. Um, you're just trying not 400 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: to get too high and then trying to get too low. 401 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: Just staying at happy medium level and just remember, like 402 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: I said, it's just football, and when the ball comes 403 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: to you make a play. What do you think are 404 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: your strikes? You know, when I think of a receiver, 405 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: I think of route running. I think of speed, I 406 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: think of hands, I think of the brain. I think 407 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: of those four things in particular. If you had to 408 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: pick one, Greg Dorge, Yeah, what would be your strength. Uh, 409 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: I'd probably just say my my competitiveness. Like I'm probably 410 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: one of the biggest competitors if you ask anybody. I 411 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 1: want to win in everything, and I think that just 412 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 1: carries over to ye, I want to win so bad? Yeah, 413 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: so bad. You're wearing an Ellen Iverson's shirt right now? 414 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: Isn't he from? Whichman, He's from Virginia, right from He's 415 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: He's from Virginia. He's not from Richmond, where I'm from. 416 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 1: But I went to Bethel High School. Um, like I said, 417 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 1: it's all it's all Virginia. So we just wrap each 418 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: other and AI as a goat man, He's a goat 419 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 1: in my town. So this sharts big for me. It 420 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: makes sense. Allen Iverson was the best player on the floor. 421 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: How many seasons and Orlanda Giants in the NBA's I mean, 422 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: he's one of the all time greats here for sure. Yeah, 423 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: must respect to him. That's great. Hey, here's our Cardinal season. 424 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: Tickets are available now. Godasy Cardinals dot com slash season 425 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: for more information will continue with Greg Dorge.

We know the stat out there not a 428 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 1: single team over the last three years in the NFL 429 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: that has started oh and two has made the playoffs. 430 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, things are ratcheting up big time. 431 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 1: We continue here on the Big Red Rage. Right after this, 432 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: Chiefs come after Murray back to throw, backpedaling, lobs left 433 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: corner of the end zone, a diving attack by Hollywood 434 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: rob and he's got it for a touchdown. It's a 435 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 1: great goal by Tyler Murray back pedaling, louting it to 436 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: the left corner. Marquis Brown got under it headed nice 437 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: chet for a Cardinals touchdown. We just got it as 438 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: a cute as a team play for each that it's 439 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: not just one of two things. It's like a lot 440 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: of things, you know, and we're never perfect. You always 441 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: get fine rules and improvement and the stuff we do well. 442 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: I feel like we gotta continue to do those things 443 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: at a high level. A toddler with Brown Clark Kingsbury 444 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: after the game, and I quote, we gotta get better 445 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 1: in a hurry, and it starts with practice, according to 446 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: the head coach. In the sense of urgency, it is 447 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: a big Red rage presented by santan Ford and Gilbert. 448 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: We are santan Ford, Greg Dorche, Cardinals leading receiver, Game 449 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: one against Kansas City. Our special guests, Ron Wolfley, Yours, Julie, 450 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: Paul Kalbisi. And what was that film session like on Tuesday. 451 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: I've heard various reports and it was if nothing else, 452 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:40,719 Speaker 1: was blunt and it was honest. A lot of the coaches, 453 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 1: a lot of the players have been very blunt this week. Greg, Yeah, 454 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 1: that's what this business is. Man. You gotta be you 455 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 1: gotta hold guy's accountable. Man, you gotta be up front. 456 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: It's no sugarcoating it. This is the NFL. So if 457 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 1: you play like excuse my language, then it needs to 458 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: be brought up so we can fix it. That's the 459 00:23:58,320 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 1: only way we're gonna get better is if we bring 460 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: it up and we hold guys accountable and we just 461 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 1: move on and try to get better. Greg, if you 462 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: could go ahead and talk a little bit about what 463 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: you're seeing on tape in regard to the Las Vegas 464 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 1: Raiders and their secondary specifically, Yeah, Um, they're they're definitely 465 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: a talented group. UM, well coached. Um not gonna lie. 466 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: Chandler Jones is a problem. We knew that when he 467 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: was here, but just going back and watching the film 468 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 1: and him and Max, Um, they're filthy together. So that's 469 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: gonna be a childe for us. Um, but I'm looking 470 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: forward to it. Yeah. The fact the Raiders didn't get 471 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: a single sack that sort of bullies the pass rush, 472 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: doesn't it. Because I've heard several guys said that Chandler 473 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: and Max Crosby brought a lot of pressure on Justin Herbert. Yeah. Man, 474 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: Like I said before, much respect the chand when he 475 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: was here last year it was my first year here. 476 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 1: But um, he's a great guy, um, locker room guy. 477 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: Just man, he's a he's a great teammate, like one 478 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,239 Speaker 1: of those guys that you want in your locker room. Um. 479 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: So I'm definitely excited to go against him this ship. 480 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 1: Just watching tape again of the Raiders. When did they 481 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: like to play man and when did they like to 482 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 1: play zone? Yeah, they're they're definitely a man team on 483 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: third down zones first and second, but third down is 484 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: when they like to get into their man coverages. How 485 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: much of what happened against Kansas City was Kansas City 486 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: and how much of it was the failings of the 487 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: years on the Cardinals. Yeah, I think it was half 488 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,120 Speaker 1: and half. They played really well. Man. They came out 489 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: and got after us early, and it's hard to when 490 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 1: the team comes out high and they get after your early, man, 491 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: it's hard to play catch up. So, um, hats off 492 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: to them. They play really well. And we know the urgency, 493 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: the intensity, the energy has to ratch it up. Everyone 494 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 1: agrees about that. But if there were one or two 495 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: other things on offense, so you think are most important 496 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:52,400 Speaker 1: here in week two, what would it be starting fast, um, 497 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 1: and just being consistent. Man? I feel like we had 498 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: some good drives and then we would go flat and 499 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: they have a good drive and then not capitalized. So 500 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 1: stack assistant and then starting fast. So Greig, you're out there, 501 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: let's tell you're split out wide and you're the single 502 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: receiver to a side. Um, do you want that dB 503 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: to walk up on you and play press? Please want price? Yeah? 504 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: Please do that? Like that? Absolutely? Okay? Yeah press man? 505 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: Yes see now see now the dumb guy around here 506 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: like yours truly right, I'd say, well, now wait a minute. 507 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,360 Speaker 1: You know, um, some of the receivers that are your 508 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: size maybe wouldn't welcome that, you know, can you get 509 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 1: off the press? Your response would be absolutely, please walk up. 510 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: That's that's what I want, man, because if you shoot 511 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 1: your hands and you miss, then it is I'm going right. 512 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: Do you think you're you're good at getting off man press? 513 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: Absolutely you have to be. Yeah, you have to be. Yeah, No, 514 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 1: I know. And especially with your speed, it's so dangerous 515 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: for a corner to walk up over you and miss 516 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: on that jam. What does that come down to? Is 517 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: that a skill on your part? Is that just a 518 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: furry city? Like I've heard Steve Smith on NFL Network, 519 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 1: an all time great receiver who stood all about five 520 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 1: foot nine, he has really harped on some smaller receivers 521 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: in the league for not getting off the press, but 522 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:15,239 Speaker 1: he never really explains what's the key? What is the key? Uh, 523 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: It's about technique, It's about having a feel for what 524 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: the DB's gonna do. Um, just being savvy just at 525 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:29,679 Speaker 1: your own little creativity to it. It's a lot that 526 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 1: goes into it, man, to getting off of press coverage. 527 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 1: But like I said before, if that dB walks up 528 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: and he shoots his hands and I swipe it by 529 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: and he misses, then I have a step over him. 530 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 1: And that's that's all you need. Yeah, Yeah, listen, if 531 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 1: we were going to take you, line you up with Andy, 532 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: Isabella and Hollywood Brown, then we're gonna tell you won't 533 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: go run a forty Who Okay, I'm a honest guy. Man, 534 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: The hands on how far we're running. If we're if 535 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: we're twenty five yards, I got it. If we're going 536 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 1: forty forty five fifty, that's tough. Hollywood and uh Andy, 537 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: they they're they're longer. Yeah, they're longer. So you're saying 538 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: you've got that bird, you've got that chat. Everyone loves 539 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: to ask that question. Now that Hollywood Brown is in camp, 540 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: he gets a basically every week. He got it last 541 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: week and that was exactly his answer. Is that he says, 542 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: you know, let's run the forty, and then some guys 543 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: are like, well, maybe we should change the distance, and 544 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: so he's got a We can't forget about Rondel though. 545 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: Rondel yeah, yeah, is fast. Now we got some guys 546 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: that can go, Andretella he's a four two guy. We 547 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: got some guys bro well, and look, Clifford mets that 548 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: he's still trying to figure out how to utilize all 549 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: this speed when everyone gets healthy. What's that going to look? 550 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: Like whend Hop gets back. Okay, you know, but obviously 551 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: the potential is there to have a lethal receiver room. 552 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: Speaking Hollywood Brown, he was talking to the media today 553 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: and our Jim Mhandro asked him about you, and then 554 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: we learned a little factory we were not aware of. 555 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 1: Great dude, She's a tremendous player. I met him because 556 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: we came out together. He was my roommate at the 557 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 1: Komebone and from that point I knew, you know, he 558 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: had something in him. I'd always tell and you know, 559 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: he practiced like it. He plays like it. You wouldn't 560 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: know he'd been through the things he went through the 561 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: way he carries himself. And I'm excited for the opportunity 562 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: that he has. And I know he would keep showing up. 563 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: To be honest, what how was he as a roommate 564 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: just talking just he was just more so one a 565 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 1: showcase what he could do. Like I know him one 566 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 1: of the best. He wanted to be able to show it. 567 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: And you know he always had that chip on the shoulder. 568 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: So you showed up in Indianapolis and you went to 569 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: your room and your roommate was Marquise Hollywood Brown. I 570 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: ain't gonna lie. I was kind of like hype, but 571 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,959 Speaker 1: I was like, they ain't they pay me with Marquis 572 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: Brown because I didn't know him at the time. You 573 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 1: just hear about him on the TV. You see him 574 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: on the TV, him in k one yep, And I'm like, okay, 575 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown, like we're coming out together, like this is 576 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: basically my competition, but now roommate, so like, let me 577 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: get to know this guy. And he was cool, man, 578 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 1: It was It was really cool. We had a lot 579 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: of things in common. Um, he's not he's not a 580 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: big guy either. No, he just plays with that swag. Man. 581 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 1: He's from Florida, you know what I'm saying. He he 582 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: he's very confident in himself, you know what I'm saying. 583 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: I feel like I played the same way too, so 584 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 1: we kind of could relate to that. So Greg, punt 585 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: return or kickoff return, if you had to pick one, 586 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: which one do you want to do? And why uh 587 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 1: punt return? Why? I just feel like once you get 588 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: past that first level, which is the gunners, then you 589 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: got your your long snapper and your punter and those 590 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: kind of bigger guys at that second level and they 591 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: can't run with me. So once I get past the 592 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: gunners in that first level, and then I feel like 593 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: it's a lot easier after you secure the punt and 594 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: your eyes go back down to the field. Is it 595 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 1: in slow motion for you or does it truly feel 596 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: like what it looks like and that is you're standing 597 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 1: in the middle of a freeway overpass. Yeah, it's definitely not. 598 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: I could definitely see what you see like on film. 599 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: It's like, oh my god, all these guys running fast 600 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,239 Speaker 1: and running all these different places. But believe it or not, Man, 601 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: I have a gift. Man, I get the ball and 602 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: I can kind of see where everybody is and just 603 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 1: see the numbers. I might have four guys on my right. 604 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 1: I know we have a wall set up to my right, 605 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: and if I can just outflank the four guys to 606 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: my right, then I can score. And I can just 607 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: see certain things. Man, just start in one way and 608 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: making them run to the left and then just shooting 609 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: up through the middle, just making guys do what I 610 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 1: want them to do. It. Man, it's fun and it's exciting. 611 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: But I've definitely been blessed so special teams near and 612 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: dear to my heart. Something I absolutely love because I 613 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: think it captures the essence of the game to be 614 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: able to move your body and that just waylay somebody 615 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: as hard as you possibly can. That is the game 616 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 1: of football to me. Right there, you made one tackle 617 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: in your career. What I gotta ask you? What particulars 618 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: about this one? Man? So this is my first game 619 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: dressing as a Cardinal, I think against the forty nine ers. Um, 620 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: and coaches like y'all, I want you to run down 621 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,479 Speaker 1: there and played kickoff and I haven't played kickoff since 622 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 1: high school. So I'm like, okay, I got you, Like 623 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: I want to play. So I go in there and 624 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 1: the guy that I tackled, um, it's Trent Cannon. He's 625 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: he actually went to Regina Reginia State. We were teammates 626 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: with the Jets. So I kind of I know this guy, 627 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: like I know this guy. So I'm like, I'm about 628 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: to tackle him. I know him. I'm about to tackle him. 629 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: So I run down there, and um, where did they wanted? 630 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: I was the five or the four? L five or four? What? 631 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: You came down the tracks? Ye? Ye? And I made 632 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: the TA And I believe it or not, Man, when 633 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 1: I made when I made that tackle, I his iPad 634 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 1: like hit my helmet and I thought I was from cussed. 635 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna lie, but I hop hop right 636 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: back up and I ran to the sideline. I didn't 637 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: know that I made the tackle because he kind of 638 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 1: like stummered a little bit, but he fell um. But 639 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: they gave me the tacle. So as you can tell, 640 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: with Wolfe's enthusiasm and knowledge, he went to four Pro 641 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: Bowls as a special teamer. So there you go. That's 642 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: the line of question right there. Here's my question as 643 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 1: we wrap up this edition with Greg Dortch here on 644 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: the Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert 645 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: at least this moment of the show, and that is 646 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: what has practice been like? Because Cliff Kingsbury cited that 647 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: immediately after the game that it needed to improve significantly. 648 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: How have you found it this week? It's been very detailed, 649 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: just cleaning everything up. Guys have been locked in communicating. 650 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: It's been hot as he's hot. I'm not gonna lie, 651 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: but guys have definitely been locked in and you could 652 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 1: just tell man, we want to win. So I'm looking 653 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 1: forward to the game.

Man, I'll tell you what right honestly, 667 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 1: right now, it's been such a pleasure or to get 668 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 1: to know you a little bit. What was your high 669 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 1: school experience? Like how many sports did you play in 670 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 1: high school? Yeah? So I played football for the most part. Um, 671 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: I played basketball a little bit, ran track for like 672 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 1: one spring and I hated it. Man. I need I 673 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: need a ball in my hand or to celebrate with 674 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 1: teammates or something. Track was like just me and it 675 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:53,359 Speaker 1: was just too much running, and I was like, yo, 676 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: this is not for me. Um I made the baseball team, 677 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 1: but my dad said, no, we're not gonna do that 678 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: because um, I want you to focus on football. So 679 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: football was everything in high school to me. Man. I 680 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: was a part of the first state championship team in 681 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: my high school in high school history. UM ended up 682 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: getting to offer my junior year jump the summer of 683 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: my junior year and committed to Wake Forest, so I 684 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 1: had already known where I was going to college. So 685 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: everything was smooth. Man. My senior year, we won won 686 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 1: the state championship. Um, I knew where I was going 687 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,320 Speaker 1: to college, so it was just everything played out the 688 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,399 Speaker 1: way it was supposed to. It's funny. Hollywood Brown said 689 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,240 Speaker 1: you were the shining light coming out of wake Forest, 690 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: that you were the guy you're you. You were the 691 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: lone playmaker at wake Forest. That you know. What's interesting 692 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 1: is didn't Trace mix Sorely, the backup quarterback on this team. 693 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 1: Didn't he win like three state titles in Virginia? Yeah 694 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 1: he did. I never got a chance to play him, 695 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 1: but I heard about his team. We would have whooped him. 696 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: Hey hey, my brother, keep your eyes up to where 697 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: your help comes from my brother and number two.

I appreciate it. We want to address 700 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: a wolf All always privately wanted to be a Raider, 701 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: but he never was. We're not going to talk about 702 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: that this week. Okay, we don't have time for that. 703 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 1: When you come back on the team playing with a win, 704 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 1: you can hit Wolf up on that one. Okay, Greg, 705 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 1: got you all right, there you go, Greg Dortche, our 706 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 1: special guest. We continue with a big red rage after this, 707 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: allfersent him by Santan Ford in Gilbert We are Santan Ford. 708 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: Cart claps his hands, now gets the ball back to 709 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:36,399 Speaker 1: pass again, fires towards the end zone. Adams diving grab 710 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 1: first first. Raiders touchdown just inside the pylon by the 711 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: throwing kitch. The preside connection works for the Raiders. The 712 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:49,720 Speaker 1: accuracy of Derek Carp pays off huge. Davanta Adams reaches 713 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:54,320 Speaker 1: out great catch balls across the goal line. Raiders Radio Network, 714 00:36:54,440 --> 00:37:00,320 Speaker 1: Jason Horowitz, Lincoln Kennedy. Davante Adams just seventeen targets in 715 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 1: his debut with the Raiders, reunited with his former college 716 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 1: quarterback Derek Carr from the Fresnos State Days and Wolf 717 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 1: did it come at the expense of other targets, You're 718 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,920 Speaker 1: darn tune it did. Hunter Renfro didn't even get a 719 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 1: target in the first until like midway through the third quarter. 720 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,240 Speaker 1: Darren Waller only got three targets through the first three quarters. 721 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 1: So it was the Davante Adams Show as they suffered 722 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: a loss in their debut as well week one against 723 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,880 Speaker 1: the Chargers. It is the Big Red Rage presented by 724 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,280 Speaker 1: Santan Ford and Gilbert. We are Santan Ford, Faull, klvc 725 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: Ron Wolfley the original Thursday Night Football Cardinals and Raiders 726 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,920 Speaker 1: here in Week two, and we mentioned the stat and 727 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: really it's all you need to know about the Cardinals 728 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 1: loss in Week one against Case when the Chiefs had 729 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 1: thirty three first downs in sixty six plays. And because 730 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 1: of that, I've seen several of these fantasy football forecasts 731 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 1: that have Davante Adams as your number one pick to 732 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: play this week because of the Cardinals d and his 733 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 1: ability as a receiver. Yeah, and you can see why 734 00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,160 Speaker 1: that would be the case, Paul, But you know it's 735 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 1: amazing for me. It's always going to start on the 736 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. It truly is. Where where it really 737 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 1: got sideways for the Arizona Cardinals defensively was when the 738 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs could line up and run the ball, 739 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 1: and run the ball. They did, and they did it very, 740 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 1: very well because that opened up the entire playbook. We 741 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,280 Speaker 1: talked a little bit about it in the first beautiful 742 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 1: part of the program, But I can tell you right 743 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 1: now that is not what you want as a defensive coordinator. 744 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: For Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid to have the entire 745 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 1: offensive playbook at their disposal. It listen, it's it's got 746 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 1: to be something that they address this weekend as well. 747 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 1: With the Raiders. Josh Jacobs is five ten and two 748 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty pounds. Do you ever try to tackle 749 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 1: a dude five ten to twenty paul It hurts and 750 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 1: he'll fight you. He's like a Marshawn Lamb. Yeah. I 751 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 1: mean he's gonna fight you. He is not going down 752 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 1: with arm tackles. No, You're gonna find out right away 753 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: if the Cardinals are ready to tackle yeah Pauline again, 754 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: that's what they have to do. Defensively. They have to 755 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 1: They have to make Derek Carr one dimensional. Now. I 756 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,320 Speaker 1: know everyone says, well, if you want them one to 757 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 1: imagine a wolf, are you gonna that's all they're gonna 758 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 1: do is sit there and throw. Well, listen, if they've 759 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,800 Speaker 1: got the entire playbook, just like Patrick Mahomes at their disposal, 760 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 1: it makes them ten times harder to stop overall, and 761 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 1: it always comes back to points. How many points are 762 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 1: you going to give up? And that means you got 763 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,880 Speaker 1: to play well in the red zone too, And it 764 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:33,399 Speaker 1: all starts with communication and getting lined up. I mean, look, 765 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,800 Speaker 1: the quote of the week to me is Nick Vigil 766 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,399 Speaker 1: when he told the media to even have a chance 767 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,800 Speaker 1: in this league, everyone has to be on the same page. 768 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: Quote end quote yea, meaning there were alignment issues, there 769 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:48,320 Speaker 1: were assignment airs. Vance Joseph today with the media was 770 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: pretty much in the Will Ferrell trust tree. He was 771 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 1: very blunt and he said, among other things, quote it 772 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: was more the operation than it was effort or anything else. 773 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,359 Speaker 1: We just didn't play fast. We couldn't get lined up. 774 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 1: The halls were coming out slow. We didn't play clean enough, 775 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 1: and they did. So that has to change. Wolf I mean, yeah, 776 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 1: and if it means you have to change who's wearing 777 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: the green dot, of it means you have to change 778 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 1: your processes in the operation. That refers to Yes, you 779 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,840 Speaker 1: can't afford those kind of mistakes against this Raiders offense. No, 780 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 1: you're right about that, Palli. This this Raiders offense is 781 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:26,120 Speaker 1: so dynamic. You know, everyone knows about Davontae Adams. Everyone 782 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:30,320 Speaker 1: understand Derek Carr, I get it, um, Josh Jacobs, you know. 783 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,319 Speaker 1: But Darren Waller is a guy you know, hunter run 784 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,240 Speaker 1: for all. I mean, all these names, all the talent, 785 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 1: But to me, Darren Waller that is the guy that 786 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:41,800 Speaker 1: I'm really really worried about it. I know everyone is 787 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 1: worried about Davante Adams, and rightfully so, I understand why 788 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 1: that is the case. But to me, Darren Waller is 789 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: one of the best tight ends in the game and 790 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 1: a guy that UM could exploit a mismatch. And it 791 00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:01,320 Speaker 1: happened last week. Yes, in Dance Shows upset, Isaiah Simmons 792 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 1: was drafted to cover the tight end. So based on 793 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 1: that comment today, we're expecting Isaiah Simmons to be on 794 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,959 Speaker 1: Darren Waller here on Sunday asked for Davante Adams, here's 795 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: the Cardinals defensive coordinator. He is probably the best route 796 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 1: runner in the league, and outside of Digs in Buffalo, 797 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 1: I mean, he is a special player. Those kind of 798 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 1: guys win their one on ones. So if you won 799 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:22,759 Speaker 1: on one for ten plays, he'll probably win seven. So 800 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,080 Speaker 1: having a plan to get him stopped and get him 801 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:26,760 Speaker 1: doubled from time to time is going to be critical. 802 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:29,879 Speaker 1: He had seventeen targets last week and he caught ten 803 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:31,719 Speaker 1: for one forty one. That's a lot of balls. So 804 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 1: it's going to be a tough task to get him contained. 805 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 1: And I say contained, not stop, because I mean you 806 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 1: don't stop. Those guys should contain them. So hopefully we 807 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 1: can and obviously hopefully you're gonna have JJ Watt once again, 808 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 1: he sounded today like he's tracking a play. Hopefully you 809 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 1: can get to the quarterback. Cardinals didn't have any sacks. 810 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 1: And then speaking of getting to the quarterback, do you 811 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 1: hear Greg Dortch when we brought up the Raiders Wolf. Yes, 812 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 1: his first comment was, and I quote Chandler Jones, is 813 00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: a problem? Was after I asked him about the secondary 814 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 1: Paul Yes, Remember I asked him about talk to me 815 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: about the secondary of the Raiders, and he went his 816 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 1: mind went to the pass rush. Unbelievable. So, just the 817 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: amount of pressures that the Raiders, between Chandler Jones and 818 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 1: Max Crosby they got last week on Justin Herbert, even 819 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: though they didn't get to him and bring him down. 820 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:23,400 Speaker 1: It's really a credit to the Chargers quarterback. So and 821 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,880 Speaker 1: speaking to Chandler Jones all one of the great personalities 822 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,439 Speaker 1: in recent memory and one of our favorite all time 823 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 1: guests in the Big Red Rage. Do you remember the 824 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,240 Speaker 1: time Wolf a couple of years ago when Chandler decided 825 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 1: to imitate you. Oh no, By the way, Chandler Jones, 826 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 1: do you prefer sack Master? You know, sack Man or 827 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 1: maybe Wolf's backwaxer. What do you prefer? What is the 828 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 1: proper title to wait before I tell you my preference? 829 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 1: Kind person made him really think, Oh no, no, absolutely 830 00:42:53,200 --> 00:43:01,320 Speaker 1: document Chandler Jones a PhD in backwaxing. That was awful. 831 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:09,279 Speaker 1: It was awful, But man was it entertaining. I mean, really, 832 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:13,239 Speaker 1: Professor Paul, I mean just watching him onte bitch truly 833 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 1: is incredible. Watching these guys rush the passer. It's amazing 834 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,279 Speaker 1: asking Greg Dorch about the secondary. Talked to me about 835 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: the secondary of the of the Raiders and he goes 836 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:29,239 Speaker 1: to the edge. What Paul receiver do that? I wrote 837 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,479 Speaker 1: it down and and and and I mean his eyes 838 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 1: got big, and and the way he said it too, 839 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 1: he was so emphatic. Chandler Jones is a problem. End 840 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 1: of sentence. I mean, that's just so so amazing too. Yeah, 841 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 1: and I just want to look for this on Sunday, Polly, 842 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:50,319 Speaker 1: Max Crosby. I mean, Chandler Jones is the most unorthodoxed 843 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: pass rusher maybe in the history of the NFL. Max 844 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 1: Crosby on the other side, he has three moves and 845 00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 1: they each come off each other. Paully, He's got the 846 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 1: get the edge, get up the field, get the edge. 847 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,320 Speaker 1: He's got an explosive first step, get up the field, 848 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 1: get the edge. He's got that move, and then he's 849 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: got the inside move off getting up the edge, then 850 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:13,960 Speaker 1: come underneath, and then he's got the eurospin get up 851 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:18,439 Speaker 1: the field, fake inside, and then spin out in. It's 852 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:23,759 Speaker 1: almost unblockable, Paul, those three moves, that is his pass rush. Yeah, 853 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 1: the Chargers could not run the ball. They had two 854 00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:30,040 Speaker 1: point five yards to carry. Max Krosby himself had ten tackles, 855 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 1: eight on run plays. They say his motor. I talked 856 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 1: to guys Wolf and there they say his motor is 857 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 1: second to none. They said in the fourth quarter he 858 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: was still running around the field. Just doesn't take a playoff. 859 00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 1: So that Cardinal's old line and the entire offense, the 860 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:47,759 Speaker 1: entire team's gonna have to take a big step from 861 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,279 Speaker 1: week one to week two. There's no doubt about it.
