Speaker 1: dot Com, Slash Podcasts, The Rods, Rising Guard, Temperaturizing Vision,
Speaker 1: Flurring Rage, take you over. Here's Paul Calvci. I'm ready.
Speaker 1: I'm one hundred percent ready. I'm telling you I'm ready.
Speaker 1: And Ron Wolflee. It doesn't get any better than that, boy,
Speaker 1: unleash the far. Week one for the Arizona Cardinals was
Speaker 1: fill in the blank. Yeah, okay, I'll go a supersized
Speaker 1: role reversal as in the Chiefs just did to the
Speaker 1: Cardinals with the Cardinals did to the Titans to open
Speaker 1: last season a KC KO And that old line about
Speaker 1: how there's no second chance at a first impression, isn't
Speaker 1: that how the line goes wolf something like that. Yeah, Paulina,
Speaker 1: how bad you are first impressions. You know that's because
Speaker 1: it's not really true in the NFL when both number
Speaker 1: one seeds last year got destroyed in season openers. So
Speaker 1: you know when in the NFL that axiom does not
Speaker 1: hold trill. Yeah, you know, I'm just saying, no, Polly.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you go to parties, some of these social events, Polly,
Speaker 1: and then suddenly it blows up in your face because
Speaker 1: you make awful first impressions right there. That's okay, Paul,
Speaker 1: I mean, your second impression is much better than your first.
Speaker 1: Let's hope the same thing happens for the Arizona Cardinals
Speaker 1: in a matter of moments, Ron Wolfley, and it's not
Speaker 1: a moment too soon, you will get dorched. Greg Dorch
Speaker 1: our guest on the Big Red Rage, presented by Santan
Speaker 1: Ford and Gilbert. We are santan Ford in Back Tonight,
Speaker 1: brought to you by fine demandion of Americans. You're truly
Speaker 1: and Greg Dortch and we'll get into all that, but
Speaker 1: first let's talk about what exactly happened in the season opener.
Speaker 1: There are two kinds of people in this world. Ron
Speaker 1: Wolfley not to get all philosophical. There are those who
Speaker 1: use the snooze button and those who do not. And
Speaker 1: the Cardinals most definitely seemingly used the snooze button in
Speaker 1: week one, and here's hoping they wake up in week two. Yeah, Paul,
Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. Um Listen, this should be
Speaker 1: a wake up call to them. I don't know why, though,
Speaker 1: you'd go out in week one at home where you
Speaker 1: know you've struggled to play well, and then you're playing
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. Look everybody, it's Patrick Mahomes, it's
Speaker 1: Andy Reid over there, and a lot other very very
Speaker 1: talented human beings, And why you come out with a
Speaker 1: sense of urgency and intensity. I honestly, I mean, hopefully
Speaker 1: that's gonna be something that's going to be in the
Speaker 1: rear view mirror for this team going forward. And they're
Speaker 1: gonna come out and ball out in week two on
Speaker 1: the road where they've played well. Maybe they just sort
Speaker 1: of forgot what regular season football is all about, the
Speaker 1: intensity and urgency and energy it takes. I don't know,
Speaker 1: because it's a great question. Obviously, you have a marquee
Speaker 1: opponent coming in, it's Week one you're at home, accounts
Speaker 1: the whole thing. Um, but here's Kyler Murray after a
Speaker 1: forty four twenty one home loss to the Chiefs. When
Speaker 1: you get to be like that, you know at home
Speaker 1: game one, yeah, it's got to be a wake up
Speaker 1: call for whoever you know felt complacent or whatever. Internally,
Speaker 1: you know, you got look in the mirror individually and um,
Speaker 1: you know, do you really want to be here? Do
Speaker 1: you really want to be great? Like? What? What? What
Speaker 1: drives you? Like? Those are the questions I feel like,
Speaker 1: you know, need to be asked. And there are a
Speaker 1: lot of questions coming out of that game in week one,
Speaker 1: are there not? Yeah, Polly, there are you know. And
Speaker 1: again I was really really disappointed after week one on
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage and how the line of scrimmage fared.
Speaker 1: I know that I'm old Polly. I know it's old school.
Speaker 1: I know I'm a traditionalist, but my goodness, the physicality
Speaker 1: on the line of scrimmage on both sides of the
Speaker 1: ball was not what it needed to be. It was
Speaker 1: not And I think JJ Watt coming back is going
Speaker 1: to do an awful lot if in fact JJ Watt
Speaker 1: is ready to play and able to play this Sunday.
Speaker 1: I think him coming back is going to have a
Speaker 1: huge impact on that front seven and how they're all
Speaker 1: going to play. Hopefully that's going to be the case.
Speaker 1: And also justin pew and bringing back a guy that
Speaker 1: is a hardcore veteran, a guy that is a master technician,
Speaker 1: and a guy that makes her offensive line better. All
Speaker 1: it takes is one breakdown out of those five guys
Speaker 1: on the offensive line, and suddenly you can't run the
Speaker 1: ball the way that you want to be able to
Speaker 1: run the ball. Suddenly you can't protect your quarterback the
Speaker 1: way that you want to be able to protect your quarterback.
Speaker 1: And I think it was a meltdown of the line
Speaker 1: of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Because of
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs Pally. You know they're going to
Speaker 1: be able to throw the ball, but when they can
Speaker 1: run the ball, Fallly, that opens up the entire playbook.
Speaker 1: When they had thirty three first downs sixty six plays,
Speaker 1: let that hang in the air for a minute. So
Speaker 1: it was both sides of the ball, There's no question
Speaker 1: about that. The offensive line you when most of the
Speaker 1: last season, and you most definitely saw it in the
Speaker 1: playoff game where right guard was a liability, and then
Speaker 1: he went into this game where left guard was an issue.
Speaker 1: You had a third stringer in there, a guy who
Speaker 1: had played center almost the entirety of cam So that
Speaker 1: was suboptimal and Chris Jones and company took advantage of that,
Speaker 1: no question. But at the same time, you know when
Speaker 1: you have guys saying that we got punched in the
Speaker 1: mouth Devon Kennard yesterday, Hila Murray, Kyler Murray saying after
Speaker 1: the game as well, you can't feel yourself in this league. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you get embarrassed. Obviously, there was more going on and
Speaker 1: it demands a certain level of leadership. I mean, Wolf
Speaker 1: is a former team captain. I'm guessing you would agree
Speaker 1: with that. In fact, here's zach Ertz earlier today, just
Speaker 1: when he's asked about his quarterback and and what goes
Speaker 1: on beyond just the field. I mean, I definitely think
Speaker 1: he's more vocal. Even after the game when we got
Speaker 1: a bus kicked on Sunate, he was a guy going
Speaker 1: around in the locker room kind of telling everyone we're
Speaker 1: gonna be all right, We're gonna be all right. So
Speaker 1: for me, I think he's just taking that next step.
Speaker 1: Everyone wants to finish product in today's society, and that's
Speaker 1: just not reality. Everyone's got to grow up. Zach Ertz. Yeah,
Speaker 1: zach Ertz earlier today. I know your reaction to that.
Speaker 1: And how far does leadership goes at media speak or
Speaker 1: is that a real entity? No, that's that is real, PAULI.
Speaker 1: This is the next step that Kyler Murray has got
Speaker 1: to take. Um, it's not just about walking around and
Speaker 1: build up your teammates or even walking around and holding
Speaker 1: your teammates accountable. It's not all of that. It really
Speaker 1: isn't it's actually doing. It's always going to be about
Speaker 1: doing first, Paul. And then you can say, but doing
Speaker 1: and saying is what leadership is all about. I know
Speaker 1: there are some guys that are really really heavy on
Speaker 1: the doing part of it. And can I tell you
Speaker 1: right now, I think of Larry Fitzgerald. I think of
Speaker 1: Larry the doing. He was heavy, heavy on the doing.
Speaker 1: Larry would say, of course, from time to time. He
Speaker 1: was a leader so much of the time based on
Speaker 1: the example, the model that he set for everybody else.
Speaker 1: But he would speak up. And when Larry spoke from
Speaker 1: time to time, because it wasn't very often, man, I'll
Speaker 1: tell you what people listened, but you have to do
Speaker 1: before you can say. And I think Kyler's already got
Speaker 1: that credibility that he can walk around and say, let's go,
Speaker 1: We're gonna be okay. Good news. Zach Ertz was a
Speaker 1: full participant in practice day. Yeah, with that calf injury.
Speaker 1: I was standing there, we were talking with JJ Watt.
Speaker 1: He was limited today, Bud. He was back on the
Speaker 1: field for the first time in recent memory. He said
Speaker 1: he's tracking at this point tracking. He is hopeful of
Speaker 1: playing Sunday. So it certainly sounds like JJ Watt and
Speaker 1: Justin Pew said he is hopeful and hopefully tracking towards
Speaker 1: playing on Sunday. And obviously that's a big three. If
Speaker 1: the Cardinals get all those guys back in the lineup, yeah,
Speaker 1: oh my goodness, that would be huge. It really would.
Speaker 1: First of all offensively to get Justin Pew back because
Speaker 1: that offensive line needs him as their left guard. But
Speaker 1: then zach Ertz as well, That to me says, Okay,
Speaker 1: what were we really missing in the first week of
Speaker 1: the season. Well, the Cardinals were missing a lot of things,
Speaker 1: but twelve personnel and a lot of twelve personnel where
Speaker 1: you've got one back and two tight ends and Max
Speaker 1: Williams being one of those, one of those stud tight ends,
Speaker 1: and then having zach Ertz as the move the wide
Speaker 1: receiver room has been a little nicked up. Cannot wait
Speaker 1: to talk to Greg Dortch, but it's been a little
Speaker 1: nicked up for the most part. Right now. Hey, you
Speaker 1: know one, go with twelve and have zach Ertz as
Speaker 1: that move tight end who's really a lot more wide
Speaker 1: receiver than he is tight end. That is a personnel
Speaker 1: group you could use, and I think we'll use that
Speaker 1: this week against the Raiders and move the ball. Hey,
Speaker 1: zach Ertz looked really good to start Cardinals can so
Speaker 1: here's hoping he's fully healthy. Ready to Go. Episode forty
Speaker 1: one in a Dave Pash podcast, Ready to Go feature
Speaker 1: an NBA and Blazer's superstar Damian Lillard. What's the bet
Speaker 1: that's on the line here in week two? Lollard is
Speaker 1: huge Raiders fan, So if the Cardinals win, Dame has
Speaker 1: to wear Kyler jersey into the arena on a game night,
Speaker 1: And then what does Dave have to do if the
Speaker 1: Cardinals lose? Wolf enter the black hole? Paul paint his
Speaker 1: space like a member of the black hole. All that
Speaker 1: that could be good, little gentlemen, bet on the line there,
Speaker 1: all right, Hey, forget about the measurables of our next guest.
Speaker 1: You know what you measure the impact of Greg Dorch.
Speaker 1: That's right. Next, we'd get dorched on the big red
Speaker 1: rage presented by Santan fourth in Gilbert fires over the middle,
Speaker 1: caught by Dorch at the thirty yard line, turns right
Speaker 1: to the twenty five and dropped to the twenty two
Speaker 1: Greg Dorch Look slap now loads up, goes deep, lobs
Speaker 1: it to the right side, called by Dorge over the dB,
Speaker 1: moving the pocket to the right, look and throwing on
Speaker 1: the run into the end zone beyond the pylon. Touchdown
Speaker 1: Greg Dorch, Height, Tennessee. You got Dorch snapped to Murray
Speaker 1: straight drop back, guns it over the middle deep that's
Speaker 1: pulled in for a first down in Kansas City territory
Speaker 1: of the thirty five yard line by Greg Dorch to
Speaker 1: gain of twenty four and a first down. Hey, make plays,
Speaker 1: make the team just that simple. And look, there are
Speaker 1: different ways to make an NFL team, right wolf. Last
Speaker 1: week we had Jaalen Thompson who's right now. The only
Speaker 1: active player on a fifty three in the NFL who
Speaker 1: came via the supplemental draft. That was Jaalen Thompson. That
Speaker 1: was last week. This week we have a player who
Speaker 1: was on his fifth team and I'd say he's here
Speaker 1: to stay after he was the Cardinals leading receiver in
Speaker 1: week number one. Greg dortch as our guest here on
Speaker 1: the Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert.
Speaker 1: We are satan Ford, Paul Calves or On Wolfley, and
Speaker 1: Greg Dorts. How we doing, Greg? What's up? Man? I'm
Speaker 1: glad to be here. The I tell you you just
Speaker 1: got out of meetings, right, You had meetings? How tough
Speaker 1: is that? I mean you got out of college, right,
Speaker 1: you know, and then and then you have meetings in
Speaker 1: the NFL. Is there any comparison whatsoever? Is Does it
Speaker 1: truly feel like a job when you're sitting in some
Speaker 1: of these meetings? Yeah? Absolutely? Uh So. We had walked
Speaker 1: throughs after practice. As soon as practice is over, we
Speaker 1: have a walk through, and then we live and we eat, UM,
Speaker 1: get treatment, and then we go through two to three
Speaker 1: hours of meetings and then we have another walkthrough UM
Speaker 1: at the end of the day before we go home. So, um,
Speaker 1: just getting accustomed to that, and um, it definitely feels
Speaker 1: like a job. I mean it is a job. We
Speaker 1: get paid a lot of money, but um, we definitely
Speaker 1: put the work in and it shows off on Sunday,
Speaker 1: so Greg, Wednesday and Thursday obviously big game plan days.
Speaker 1: As you're preparing throughout the week. Right here, what what
Speaker 1: do you specialize in? Do you do anything like red
Speaker 1: zone on a Wednesday? When do you run red zone
Speaker 1: offense or or rundown situation offense or third and obvious?
Speaker 1: Do you do it every day? Uh? Well, on days
Speaker 1: like this Thursdays, we focus on third down and raid zone. Um.
Speaker 1: The earlier during the early days during the week we
Speaker 1: do the base in stalls and the first down, first
Speaker 1: first and second down passes. Um, but as you get
Speaker 1: on through the week, we focus on red zone and
Speaker 1: third down. So um, those out of it's importting downs
Speaker 1: in NFL, man, you make plays on throw down, you
Speaker 1: keep the sticks moving. Um, that's how you win games.
Speaker 1: So well, yeah, no doubt about that. But in regard
Speaker 1: to the red zone, what is the conversation offensively with
Speaker 1: you guys? In regard to the red zone and how
Speaker 1: do you fit into that, Greg, Yeah, it's just all
Speaker 1: about being decisive. Given Kyler an option to look at
Speaker 1: somebody he's comfortable throwing too. Just just being in the
Speaker 1: right spots at the right time so he can make
Speaker 1: the throw. He's not second guessing where you're going to be.
Speaker 1: Everything happens faster down there, So um, just being precise.
Speaker 1: Vans Joseph talked today about rookies earning his trust as
Speaker 1: a receiver. You have to earn the trust of the quarterback,
Speaker 1: don't you. Yeah, absolutely, not even not even just Kyler,
Speaker 1: but Cliff. He's the shot caller. He caused the play.
Speaker 1: So if he's comfortable putting you in there and comfortable
Speaker 1: in you that you're gonna make a play, then you
Speaker 1: got it. You know, when you make plays, this is
Speaker 1: something that you do. Greg Man really really impressed your
Speaker 1: fivees up. I can't even her five seven and explosive.
Speaker 1: Why does five seven, one hundred and seventy five pounds
Speaker 1: work in this league? Yeah, it's just about heart, man.
Speaker 1: You got to you gotta be winning to stick your
Speaker 1: nose and it run across the middle. Just do whatever
Speaker 1: it takes to help the team and get a win. Man.
Speaker 1: I've been playing football since I was six years old
Speaker 1: and this has been the only thing that I've wanted
Speaker 1: to do. So now that everything's right here in front
Speaker 1: of me, man, I just want to take full advantage
Speaker 1: of that. So you've always spend this way. You've always
Speaker 1: spen this way in regard to how you approach the
Speaker 1: game and this fearless mentality. Man, if you take the
Speaker 1: tape from I have tape from when I was playing
Speaker 1: flag football when I was seven years old, it's been
Speaker 1: the same way since. You know what, look as the
Speaker 1: world's worst little league coach. Recently, I used to tell
Speaker 1: our team because we go against some of these other teams,
Speaker 1: are like, Okay, are they testing for HGH in this league? Right,
Speaker 1: I'd be like, look, bigger isn't better? Kids, better is better? Yeah,
Speaker 1: go play better baseball. Yeah, that's got to be the mentality.
Speaker 1: You can still be better despite your size, right. Yeah. Absolutely, Man,
Speaker 1: It's just about making plays and when your numbers called,
Speaker 1: just taking advantage of those opportunities. Um, I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: you see lots of guys around the league that aren't
Speaker 1: big that make plays. You got to Tyreek Hills. You
Speaker 1: got Um darren spros. You got just guys back in
Speaker 1: the day that used to make plays. Man that you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You can't teach a football player
Speaker 1: how to play ball, man, they just have it. So,
Speaker 1: Craig I was. I was a fullback when I played,
Speaker 1: and that was only two hundred and twenty two pounds
Speaker 1: back in an era when fullbacks were all two hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty pounds. Man, I always wanted to be the
Speaker 1: guy that had the big button, the big thighs and wait,
Speaker 1: two hundred and forty five pounds. Oh, I had dreams
Speaker 1: of being that guy. Do you ever have dreams of
Speaker 1: being six four? Absolutely not, Man. I love the person
Speaker 1: that I am, the guy that I am off the
Speaker 1: field and on the field. Man, I've been blessing other areas,
Speaker 1: clearly not hype because I'm not that tall, but just
Speaker 1: other areas. Man, Like I feel like I can make
Speaker 1: somebody missing the phone booth. I'm hard to tackle, Um,
Speaker 1: I have great hands. I'm just a dynamic player, and
Speaker 1: I feel like when I have the ball in my hands,
Speaker 1: people can see that. You know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: I just want to continue to show the world that
Speaker 1: um that I'm that type of player. Cardinals receiver Greg
Speaker 1: dortch Our guests here in the Big Red Rage presented
Speaker 1: by Santan Ford and Gilbert Yet. I remember you telling
Speaker 1: the media Lad in camp that you quote cut out
Speaker 1: the bs this off season to try and maximize your ability.
Speaker 1: What do you mean by that? And what was the
Speaker 1: plan in the off season? What'd you implement? Man? So
Speaker 1: I haven't seen my parents since Thanksgiving, so I didn't
Speaker 1: go back home. I'm from Richmond, Virginia. Originally I stayed
Speaker 1: here after the season and trained at a place called
Speaker 1: Elite You and Scottsdale, and I literally haven't been back
Speaker 1: home to Virginia since thanks Again, like I said, yeah,
Speaker 1: so just I don't know, just buying in and just
Speaker 1: like this time that I have is so short, and
Speaker 1: I just want to maximize it's time that I have,
Speaker 1: and my mom and my dad they understand that, like
Speaker 1: if I can get Like my dad came up to
Speaker 1: the game for the Chiefs this past weekend, so that I
Speaker 1: I was the first time I got to see him.
Speaker 1: But I haven't seen my see my mom since Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1: So I don't know, just maximizing my opportunities and eventually
Speaker 1: it'll all payoff and they understand that this is my
Speaker 1: dream and I have to chase it. So I was
Speaker 1: just gonna say that, Greig. I mean, though, are you
Speaker 1: sitting around and you're thinking yourself? Man, I am getting
Speaker 1: the opportunity right now, and I am making the best
Speaker 1: of that opportunity right now, and I could see myself
Speaker 1: playing for ten twelve years. Do you think like this?
Speaker 1: Do you allow yourself to think like this? I definitely do.
Speaker 1: I think it's important to think like that. Man. I
Speaker 1: just try to think positive. Of course, as a human being,
Speaker 1: we have thoughts that come into your head, like what
Speaker 1: if you dropped this past where you get another chance
Speaker 1: for you? You know what I'm saying. All of those
Speaker 1: thoughts come in, But I just try to just clear
Speaker 1: my mind, man, and just think that it's football. I've
Speaker 1: been playing football, like I said, since I was seven
Speaker 1: years old. And yeah it's the NFL, but it's football
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. These guys put their
Speaker 1: cleats on the same way I put my cleats on,
Speaker 1: So it's football. Well, you didn't just make an impression
Speaker 1: on Cliff Kingsbury and the coaches. Here's Aj Green when
Speaker 1: we were in Nashville after the joint practice against the Titans.
Speaker 1: AJ Green, I'll tell everybody about Dortsch Man, He's just
Speaker 1: like his field for the game, his hands, his mentality
Speaker 1: every day is unmatched. It don't matter who you put.
Speaker 1: You put a first run in from him, we know
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. Like he's gonna he's gonna eat him up.
Speaker 1: That's his mentality each day. So Andy, dortsch those guys, man,
Speaker 1: I go home and tell me. I watch every day
Speaker 1: about how they work, how they don't complain. They has
Speaker 1: come out there and work each day. Man. That makes
Speaker 1: me want to work every day, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: There's no wonder that Cliff Kingsbury by the end of
Speaker 1: camp called you and Andy Isabelle at the Stars of Camp,
Speaker 1: And I think sometimes someday it'll probably be the answer
Speaker 1: to a trivia question. How many times were you cut
Speaker 1: by NFL teams your first couple of years? So this
Speaker 1: is my fifteen in four years. Man, I've been cut
Speaker 1: multiple times and it sucks, but that's the reality of
Speaker 1: this game that I play in the reality that moment,
Speaker 1: How low was it a moment for you? How seriously
Speaker 1: did you contemplate whether you were gonna go forward. It
Speaker 1: was football. Yeah, yeah. So I got cut three times
Speaker 1: my rookie year, and at that moment, I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: it's football gonna be over. I'm not sure what I'm
Speaker 1: gonna do. I started applying to regular jobs, but you know,
Speaker 1: Guy had something else in store. I decided to take
Speaker 1: my talents and I wanted to go play Canadian football
Speaker 1: because I was like, Okay, maybe I won't get a
Speaker 1: shot in the NFL, but if I have crazy tape
Speaker 1: in the CFL, maybe I can work my way back
Speaker 1: to the NFL. So I wanted to do that, but
Speaker 1: Guy had other plans. I said at home the whole
Speaker 1: COVID year and got a car from Atlanta and they
Speaker 1: put me on their Pea squad and then I spent
Speaker 1: some time with them all the way up to OTAs
Speaker 1: and then they cut me again, and I was like, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm definitely gonna go CFL now because I just got
Speaker 1: cut again. And then probably two days before I was
Speaker 1: about to fly off to the Hamilton Tigers, um the
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals called me. Wow, man, So so tell us
Speaker 1: now about the opener, because again you were the Cardinals
Speaker 1: leading receivers seven grabs on nine targets. All of a sudden,
Speaker 1: you had her serious, major role in that game plan.
Speaker 1: What were your takeaways after that game and watching that film. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: it was a blessing. Um, Like I said I would,
Speaker 1: This has been my dream to play in the NFL
Speaker 1: since I was a kid. Man. It's just God is
Speaker 1: so good man, just just placing me here, like it
Speaker 1: could have been anybody here, but it's me, and I
Speaker 1: just want to take advantage of the opportunity. But to
Speaker 1: get a chance to play against Kansas City and my
Speaker 1: homes and they were just in the Super Bowl a
Speaker 1: couple of years ago. So just to go against that
Speaker 1: my first ever career start. Um, you're just trying not
Speaker 1: to get too high and then trying to get too low.
Speaker 1: Just staying at happy medium level and just remember, like
Speaker 1: I said, it's just football, and when the ball comes
Speaker 1: to you make a play. What do you think are
Speaker 1: your strikes? You know, when I think of a receiver,
Speaker 1: I think of route running. I think of speed, I
Speaker 1: think of hands, I think of the brain. I think
Speaker 1: of those four things in particular. If you had to
Speaker 1: pick one, Greg Dorge, Yeah, what would be your strength. Uh,
Speaker 1: I'd probably just say my my competitiveness. Like I'm probably
Speaker 1: one of the biggest competitors if you ask anybody. I
Speaker 1: want to win in everything, and I think that just
Speaker 1: carries over to ye, I want to win so bad? Yeah,
Speaker 1: so bad. You're wearing an Ellen Iverson's shirt right now?
Speaker 1: Isn't he from? Whichman, He's from Virginia, right from He's
Speaker 1: He's from Virginia. He's not from Richmond, where I'm from.
Speaker 1: But I went to Bethel High School. Um, like I said,
Speaker 1: it's all it's all Virginia. So we just wrap each
Speaker 1: other and AI as a goat man, He's a goat
Speaker 1: in my town. So this sharts big for me. It
Speaker 1: makes sense. Allen Iverson was the best player on the floor.
Speaker 1: How many seasons and Orlanda Giants in the NBA's I mean,
Speaker 1: he's one of the all time greats here for sure. Yeah,
Speaker 1: must respect to him. That's great. Hey, here's our Cardinal season.
Speaker 1: Tickets are available now. Godasy Cardinals dot com slash season
Speaker 1: for more information will continue with Greg Dorge. Cardinals receivers
Speaker 1: got to talk about the Raiders. Okay, what is week
Speaker 1: to mean? We know the stat out there not a
Speaker 1: single team over the last three years in the NFL
Speaker 1: that has started oh and two has made the playoffs.
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, things are ratcheting up big time.
Speaker 1: We continue here on the Big Red Rage. Right after this,
Speaker 1: Chiefs come after Murray back to throw, backpedaling, lobs left
Speaker 1: corner of the end zone, a diving attack by Hollywood
Speaker 1: rob and he's got it for a touchdown. It's a
Speaker 1: great goal by Tyler Murray back pedaling, louting it to
Speaker 1: the left corner. Marquis Brown got under it headed nice
Speaker 1: chet for a Cardinals touchdown. We just got it as
Speaker 1: a cute as a team play for each that it's
Speaker 1: not just one of two things. It's like a lot
Speaker 1: of things, you know, and we're never perfect. You always
Speaker 1: get fine rules and improvement and the stuff we do well.
Speaker 1: I feel like we gotta continue to do those things
Speaker 1: at a high level. A toddler with Brown Clark Kingsbury
Speaker 1: after the game, and I quote, we gotta get better
Speaker 1: in a hurry, and it starts with practice, according to
Speaker 1: the head coach. In the sense of urgency, it is
Speaker 1: a big Red rage presented by santan Ford and Gilbert.
Speaker 1: We are santan Ford, Greg Dorche, Cardinals leading receiver, Game
Speaker 1: one against Kansas City. Our special guests, Ron Wolfley, Yours, Julie,
Speaker 1: Paul Kalbisi. And what was that film session like on Tuesday.
Speaker 1: I've heard various reports and it was if nothing else,
Speaker 1: was blunt and it was honest. A lot of the coaches,
Speaker 1: a lot of the players have been very blunt this week. Greg, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what this business is. Man. You gotta be you
Speaker 1: gotta hold guy's accountable. Man, you gotta be up front.
Speaker 1: It's no sugarcoating it. This is the NFL. So if
Speaker 1: you play like excuse my language, then it needs to
Speaker 1: be brought up so we can fix it. That's the
Speaker 1: only way we're gonna get better is if we bring
Speaker 1: it up and we hold guys accountable and we just
Speaker 1: move on and try to get better. Greg, if you
Speaker 1: could go ahead and talk a little bit about what
Speaker 1: you're seeing on tape in regard to the Las Vegas
Speaker 1: Raiders and their secondary specifically, Yeah, Um, they're they're definitely
Speaker 1: a talented group. UM, well coached. Um not gonna lie.
Speaker 1: Chandler Jones is a problem. We knew that when he
Speaker 1: was here, but just going back and watching the film
Speaker 1: and him and Max, Um, they're filthy together. So that's
Speaker 1: gonna be a childe for us. Um, but I'm looking
Speaker 1: forward to it. Yeah. The fact the Raiders didn't get
Speaker 1: a single sack that sort of bullies the pass rush,
Speaker 1: doesn't it. Because I've heard several guys said that Chandler
Speaker 1: and Max Crosby brought a lot of pressure on Justin Herbert. Yeah. Man,
Speaker 1: Like I said before, much respect the chand when he
Speaker 1: was here last year it was my first year here.
Speaker 1: But um, he's a great guy, um, locker room guy.
Speaker 1: Just man, he's a he's a great teammate, like one
Speaker 1: of those guys that you want in your locker room. Um.
Speaker 1: So I'm definitely excited to go against him this ship.
Speaker 1: Just watching tape again of the Raiders. When did they
Speaker 1: like to play man and when did they like to
Speaker 1: play zone? Yeah, they're they're definitely a man team on
Speaker 1: third down zones first and second, but third down is
Speaker 1: when they like to get into their man coverages. How
Speaker 1: much of what happened against Kansas City was Kansas City
Speaker 1: and how much of it was the failings of the
Speaker 1: years on the Cardinals. Yeah, I think it was half
Speaker 1: and half. They played really well. Man. They came out
Speaker 1: and got after us early, and it's hard to when
Speaker 1: the team comes out high and they get after your early, man,
Speaker 1: it's hard to play catch up. So, um, hats off
Speaker 1: to them. They play really well. And we know the urgency,
Speaker 1: the intensity, the energy has to ratch it up. Everyone
Speaker 1: agrees about that. But if there were one or two
Speaker 1: other things on offense, so you think are most important
Speaker 1: here in week two, what would it be starting fast, um,
Speaker 1: and just being consistent. Man? I feel like we had
Speaker 1: some good drives and then we would go flat and
Speaker 1: they have a good drive and then not capitalized. So
Speaker 1: stack assistant and then starting fast. So Greig, you're out there,
Speaker 1: let's tell you're split out wide and you're the single
Speaker 1: receiver to a side. Um, do you want that dB
Speaker 1: to walk up on you and play press? Please want price? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Please do that? Like that? Absolutely? Okay? Yeah press man?
Speaker 1: Yes see now see now the dumb guy around here
Speaker 1: like yours truly right, I'd say, well, now wait a minute.
Speaker 1: You know, um, some of the receivers that are your
Speaker 1: size maybe wouldn't welcome that, you know, can you get
Speaker 1: off the press? Your response would be absolutely, please walk up.
Speaker 1: That's that's what I want, man, because if you shoot
Speaker 1: your hands and you miss, then it is I'm going right.
Speaker 1: Do you think you're you're good at getting off man press?
Speaker 1: Absolutely you have to be. Yeah, you have to be. Yeah, No,
Speaker 1: I know. And especially with your speed, it's so dangerous
Speaker 1: for a corner to walk up over you and miss
Speaker 1: on that jam. What does that come down to? Is
Speaker 1: that a skill on your part? Is that just a
Speaker 1: furry city? Like I've heard Steve Smith on NFL Network,
Speaker 1: an all time great receiver who stood all about five
Speaker 1: foot nine, he has really harped on some smaller receivers
Speaker 1: in the league for not getting off the press, but
Speaker 1: he never really explains what's the key? What is the key? Uh,
Speaker 1: It's about technique, It's about having a feel for what
Speaker 1: the DB's gonna do. Um, just being savvy just at
Speaker 1: your own little creativity to it. It's a lot that
Speaker 1: goes into it, man, to getting off of press coverage.
Speaker 1: But like I said before, if that dB walks up
Speaker 1: and he shoots his hands and I swipe it by
Speaker 1: and he misses, then I have a step over him.
Speaker 1: And that's that's all you need. Yeah, Yeah, listen, if
Speaker 1: we were going to take you, line you up with Andy,
Speaker 1: Isabella and Hollywood Brown, then we're gonna tell you won't
Speaker 1: go run a forty Who Okay, I'm a honest guy. Man,
Speaker 1: The hands on how far we're running. If we're if
Speaker 1: we're twenty five yards, I got it. If we're going
Speaker 1: forty forty five fifty, that's tough. Hollywood and uh Andy,
Speaker 1: they they're they're longer. Yeah, they're longer. So you're saying
Speaker 1: you've got that bird, you've got that chat. Everyone loves
Speaker 1: to ask that question. Now that Hollywood Brown is in camp,
Speaker 1: he gets a basically every week. He got it last
Speaker 1: week and that was exactly his answer. Is that he says,
Speaker 1: you know, let's run the forty, and then some guys
Speaker 1: are like, well, maybe we should change the distance, and
Speaker 1: so he's got a We can't forget about Rondel though.
Speaker 1: Rondel yeah, yeah, is fast. Now we got some guys
Speaker 1: that can go, Andretella he's a four two guy. We
Speaker 1: got some guys bro well, and look, Clifford mets that
Speaker 1: he's still trying to figure out how to utilize all
Speaker 1: this speed when everyone gets healthy. What's that going to look?
Speaker 1: Like whend Hop gets back. Okay, you know, but obviously
Speaker 1: the potential is there to have a lethal receiver room.
Speaker 1: Speaking Hollywood Brown, he was talking to the media today
Speaker 1: and our Jim Mhandro asked him about you, and then
Speaker 1: we learned a little factory we were not aware of.
Speaker 1: Great dude, She's a tremendous player. I met him because
Speaker 1: we came out together. He was my roommate at the
Speaker 1: Komebone and from that point I knew, you know, he
Speaker 1: had something in him. I'd always tell and you know,
Speaker 1: he practiced like it. He plays like it. You wouldn't
Speaker 1: know he'd been through the things he went through the
Speaker 1: way he carries himself. And I'm excited for the opportunity
Speaker 1: that he has. And I know he would keep showing up.
Speaker 1: To be honest, what how was he as a roommate
Speaker 1: just talking just he was just more so one a
Speaker 1: showcase what he could do. Like I know him one
Speaker 1: of the best. He wanted to be able to show it.
Speaker 1: And you know he always had that chip on the shoulder.
Speaker 1: So you showed up in Indianapolis and you went to
Speaker 1: your room and your roommate was Marquise Hollywood Brown. I
Speaker 1: ain't gonna lie. I was kind of like hype, but
Speaker 1: I was like, they ain't they pay me with Marquis
Speaker 1: Brown because I didn't know him at the time. You
Speaker 1: just hear about him on the TV. You see him
Speaker 1: on the TV, him in k one yep, And I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown, like we're coming out together, like this is
Speaker 1: basically my competition, but now roommate, so like, let me
Speaker 1: get to know this guy. And he was cool, man,
Speaker 1: It was It was really cool. We had a lot
Speaker 1: of things in common. Um, he's not he's not a
Speaker 1: big guy either. No, he just plays with that swag. Man.
Speaker 1: He's from Florida, you know what I'm saying. He he
Speaker 1: he's very confident in himself, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I feel like I played the same way too, so
Speaker 1: we kind of could relate to that. So Greg, punt
Speaker 1: return or kickoff return, if you had to pick one,
Speaker 1: which one do you want to do? And why uh
Speaker 1: punt return? Why? I just feel like once you get
Speaker 1: past that first level, which is the gunners, then you
Speaker 1: got your your long snapper and your punter and those
Speaker 1: kind of bigger guys at that second level and they
Speaker 1: can't run with me. So once I get past the
Speaker 1: gunners in that first level, and then I feel like
Speaker 1: it's a lot easier after you secure the punt and
Speaker 1: your eyes go back down to the field. Is it
Speaker 1: in slow motion for you or does it truly feel
Speaker 1: like what it looks like and that is you're standing
Speaker 1: in the middle of a freeway overpass. Yeah, it's definitely not.
Speaker 1: I could definitely see what you see like on film.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh my god, all these guys running fast
Speaker 1: and running all these different places. But believe it or not, Man,
Speaker 1: I have a gift. Man, I get the ball and
Speaker 1: I can kind of see where everybody is and just
Speaker 1: see the numbers. I might have four guys on my right.
Speaker 1: I know we have a wall set up to my right,
Speaker 1: and if I can just outflank the four guys to
Speaker 1: my right, then I can score. And I can just
Speaker 1: see certain things. Man, just start in one way and
Speaker 1: making them run to the left and then just shooting
Speaker 1: up through the middle, just making guys do what I
Speaker 1: want them to do. It. Man, it's fun and it's exciting.
Speaker 1: But I've definitely been blessed so special teams near and
Speaker 1: dear to my heart. Something I absolutely love because I
Speaker 1: think it captures the essence of the game to be
Speaker 1: able to move your body and that just waylay somebody
Speaker 1: as hard as you possibly can. That is the game
Speaker 1: of football to me. Right there, you made one tackle
Speaker 1: in your career. What I gotta ask you? What particulars
Speaker 1: about this one? Man? So this is my first game
Speaker 1: dressing as a Cardinal, I think against the forty nine ers. Um,
Speaker 1: and coaches like y'all, I want you to run down
Speaker 1: there and played kickoff and I haven't played kickoff since
Speaker 1: high school. So I'm like, okay, I got you, Like
Speaker 1: I want to play. So I go in there and
Speaker 1: the guy that I tackled, um, it's Trent Cannon. He's
Speaker 1: he actually went to Regina Reginia State. We were teammates
Speaker 1: with the Jets. So I kind of I know this guy,
Speaker 1: like I know this guy. So I'm like, I'm about
Speaker 1: to tackle him. I know him. I'm about to tackle him.
Speaker 1: So I run down there, and um, where did they wanted?
Speaker 1: I was the five or the four? L five or four? What?
Speaker 1: You came down the tracks? Ye? Ye? And I made
Speaker 1: the TA And I believe it or not, Man, when
Speaker 1: I made when I made that tackle, I his iPad
Speaker 1: like hit my helmet and I thought I was from cussed.
Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna lie, but I hop hop right
Speaker 1: back up and I ran to the sideline. I didn't
Speaker 1: know that I made the tackle because he kind of
Speaker 1: like stummered a little bit, but he fell um. But
Speaker 1: they gave me the tacle. So as you can tell,
Speaker 1: with Wolfe's enthusiasm and knowledge, he went to four Pro
Speaker 1: Bowls as a special teamer. So there you go. That's
Speaker 1: the line of question right there. Here's my question as
Speaker 1: we wrap up this edition with Greg Dortch here on
Speaker 1: the Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert
Speaker 1: at least this moment of the show, and that is
Speaker 1: what has practice been like? Because Cliff Kingsbury cited that
Speaker 1: immediately after the game that it needed to improve significantly.
Speaker 1: How have you found it this week? It's been very detailed,
Speaker 1: just cleaning everything up. Guys have been locked in communicating.
Speaker 1: It's been hot as he's hot. I'm not gonna lie,
Speaker 1: but guys have definitely been locked in and you could
Speaker 1: just tell man, we want to win. So I'm looking
Speaker 1: forward to the game. On Sunday, Kyler went around the
Speaker 1: locker room after the game and sort of had a
Speaker 1: message for everyone. A couple of guys said that he
Speaker 1: went around and say, Hey, it's you know, we got this.
Speaker 1: It's just one game out of seventeen. Is have you
Speaker 1: seen that enhanced leadership out of K one? Yeah? Absolutely? Man,
Speaker 1: he like I said before, just a communication aspect um,
Speaker 1: just telling guys what he see. Um, so we can
Speaker 1: play off of that and just be better. Um, but yeah, man,
Speaker 1: he's he Okay, One was a guy. Bro's a He's
Speaker 1: a guy that you want to play for. He's a quarterback.
Speaker 1: He's he's dynamic, he's explosive. Um, he wants to win.
Speaker 1: He's super competitive, just like me. Um, you want that
Speaker 1: as a quarterback. Man, I'll tell you what right honestly,
Speaker 1: right now, it's been such a pleasure or to get
Speaker 1: to know you a little bit. What was your high
Speaker 1: school experience? Like how many sports did you play in
Speaker 1: high school? Yeah? So I played football for the most part. Um,
Speaker 1: I played basketball a little bit, ran track for like
Speaker 1: one spring and I hated it. Man. I need I
Speaker 1: need a ball in my hand or to celebrate with
Speaker 1: teammates or something. Track was like just me and it
Speaker 1: was just too much running, and I was like, yo,
Speaker 1: this is not for me. Um I made the baseball team,
Speaker 1: but my dad said, no, we're not gonna do that
Speaker 1: because um, I want you to focus on football. So
Speaker 1: football was everything in high school to me. Man. I
Speaker 1: was a part of the first state championship team in
Speaker 1: my high school in high school history. UM ended up
Speaker 1: getting to offer my junior year jump the summer of
Speaker 1: my junior year and committed to Wake Forest, so I
Speaker 1: had already known where I was going to college. So
Speaker 1: everything was smooth. Man. My senior year, we won won
Speaker 1: the state championship. Um, I knew where I was going
Speaker 1: to college, so it was just everything played out the
Speaker 1: way it was supposed to. It's funny. Hollywood Brown said
Speaker 1: you were the shining light coming out of wake Forest,
Speaker 1: that you were the guy you're you. You were the
Speaker 1: lone playmaker at wake Forest. That you know. What's interesting
Speaker 1: is didn't Trace mix Sorely, the backup quarterback on this team.
Speaker 1: Didn't he win like three state titles in Virginia? Yeah
Speaker 1: he did. I never got a chance to play him,
Speaker 1: but I heard about his team. We would have whooped him.
Speaker 1: Hey hey, my brother, keep your eyes up to where
Speaker 1: your help comes from my brother and number two. Stay humble, man,
Speaker 1: and you're gonna have at twelve your career. Thank you, yeah,
Speaker 1: thank you man. I appreciate it. We want to address
Speaker 1: a wolf All always privately wanted to be a Raider,
Speaker 1: but he never was. We're not going to talk about
Speaker 1: that this week. Okay, we don't have time for that.
Speaker 1: When you come back on the team playing with a win,
Speaker 1: you can hit Wolf up on that one. Okay, Greg,
Speaker 1: got you all right, there you go, Greg Dortche, our
Speaker 1: special guest. We continue with a big red rage after this,
Speaker 1: allfersent him by Santan Ford in Gilbert We are Santan Ford.
Speaker 1: Cart claps his hands, now gets the ball back to
Speaker 1: pass again, fires towards the end zone. Adams diving grab
Speaker 1: first first. Raiders touchdown just inside the pylon by the
Speaker 1: throwing kitch. The preside connection works for the Raiders. The
Speaker 1: accuracy of Derek Carp pays off huge. Davanta Adams reaches
Speaker 1: out great catch balls across the goal line. Raiders Radio Network,
Speaker 1: Jason Horowitz, Lincoln Kennedy. Davante Adams just seventeen targets in
Speaker 1: his debut with the Raiders, reunited with his former college
Speaker 1: quarterback Derek Carr from the Fresnos State Days and Wolf
Speaker 1: did it come at the expense of other targets, You're
Speaker 1: darn tune it did. Hunter Renfro didn't even get a
Speaker 1: target in the first until like midway through the third quarter.
Speaker 1: Darren Waller only got three targets through the first three quarters.
Speaker 1: So it was the Davante Adams Show as they suffered
Speaker 1: a loss in their debut as well week one against
Speaker 1: the Chargers. It is the Big Red Rage presented by
Speaker 1: Santan Ford and Gilbert. We are Santan Ford, Faull, klvc
Speaker 1: Ron Wolfley the original Thursday Night Football Cardinals and Raiders
Speaker 1: here in Week two, and we mentioned the stat and
Speaker 1: really it's all you need to know about the Cardinals
Speaker 1: loss in Week one against Case when the Chiefs had
Speaker 1: thirty three first downs in sixty six plays. And because
Speaker 1: of that, I've seen several of these fantasy football forecasts
Speaker 1: that have Davante Adams as your number one pick to
Speaker 1: play this week because of the Cardinals d and his
Speaker 1: ability as a receiver. Yeah, and you can see why
Speaker 1: that would be the case, Paul, But you know it's
Speaker 1: amazing for me. It's always going to start on the
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. It truly is. Where where it really
Speaker 1: got sideways for the Arizona Cardinals defensively was when the
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs could line up and run the ball,
Speaker 1: and run the ball. They did, and they did it very,
Speaker 1: very well because that opened up the entire playbook. We
Speaker 1: talked a little bit about it in the first beautiful
Speaker 1: part of the program, But I can tell you right
Speaker 1: now that is not what you want as a defensive coordinator.
Speaker 1: For Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid to have the entire
Speaker 1: offensive playbook at their disposal. It listen, it's it's got
Speaker 1: to be something that they address this weekend as well.
Speaker 1: With the Raiders. Josh Jacobs is five ten and two
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty pounds. Do you ever try to tackle
Speaker 1: a dude five ten to twenty paul It hurts and
Speaker 1: he'll fight you. He's like a Marshawn Lamb. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: mean he's gonna fight you. He is not going down
Speaker 1: with arm tackles. No, You're gonna find out right away
Speaker 1: if the Cardinals are ready to tackle yeah Pauline again,
Speaker 1: that's what they have to do. Defensively. They have to
Speaker 1: They have to make Derek Carr one dimensional. Now. I
Speaker 1: know everyone says, well, if you want them one to
Speaker 1: imagine a wolf, are you gonna that's all they're gonna
Speaker 1: do is sit there and throw. Well, listen, if they've
Speaker 1: got the entire playbook, just like Patrick Mahomes at their disposal,
Speaker 1: it makes them ten times harder to stop overall, and
Speaker 1: it always comes back to points. How many points are
Speaker 1: you going to give up? And that means you got
Speaker 1: to play well in the red zone too, And it
Speaker 1: all starts with communication and getting lined up. I mean, look,
Speaker 1: the quote of the week to me is Nick Vigil
Speaker 1: when he told the media to even have a chance
Speaker 1: in this league, everyone has to be on the same page.
Speaker 1: Quote end quote yea, meaning there were alignment issues, there
Speaker 1: were assignment airs. Vance Joseph today with the media was
Speaker 1: pretty much in the Will Ferrell trust tree. He was
Speaker 1: very blunt and he said, among other things, quote it
Speaker 1: was more the operation than it was effort or anything else.
Speaker 1: We just didn't play fast. We couldn't get lined up.
Speaker 1: The halls were coming out slow. We didn't play clean enough,
Speaker 1: and they did. So that has to change. Wolf I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: and if it means you have to change who's wearing
Speaker 1: the green dot, of it means you have to change
Speaker 1: your processes in the operation. That refers to Yes, you
Speaker 1: can't afford those kind of mistakes against this Raiders offense. No,
Speaker 1: you're right about that, Palli. This this Raiders offense is
Speaker 1: so dynamic. You know, everyone knows about Davontae Adams. Everyone
Speaker 1: understand Derek Carr, I get it, um, Josh Jacobs, you know.
Speaker 1: But Darren Waller is a guy you know, hunter run
Speaker 1: for all. I mean, all these names, all the talent,
Speaker 1: But to me, Darren Waller that is the guy that
Speaker 1: I'm really really worried about it. I know everyone is
Speaker 1: worried about Davante Adams, and rightfully so, I understand why
Speaker 1: that is the case. But to me, Darren Waller is
Speaker 1: one of the best tight ends in the game and
Speaker 1: a guy that UM could exploit a mismatch. And it
Speaker 1: happened last week. Yes, in Dance Shows upset, Isaiah Simmons
Speaker 1: was drafted to cover the tight end. So based on
Speaker 1: that comment today, we're expecting Isaiah Simmons to be on
Speaker 1: Darren Waller here on Sunday asked for Davante Adams, here's
Speaker 1: the Cardinals defensive coordinator. He is probably the best route
Speaker 1: runner in the league, and outside of Digs in Buffalo,
Speaker 1: I mean, he is a special player. Those kind of
Speaker 1: guys win their one on ones. So if you won
Speaker 1: on one for ten plays, he'll probably win seven. So
Speaker 1: having a plan to get him stopped and get him
Speaker 1: doubled from time to time is going to be critical.
Speaker 1: He had seventeen targets last week and he caught ten
Speaker 1: for one forty one. That's a lot of balls. So
Speaker 1: it's going to be a tough task to get him contained.
Speaker 1: And I say contained, not stop, because I mean you
Speaker 1: don't stop. Those guys should contain them. So hopefully we
Speaker 1: can and obviously hopefully you're gonna have JJ Watt once again,
Speaker 1: he sounded today like he's tracking a play. Hopefully you
Speaker 1: can get to the quarterback. Cardinals didn't have any sacks.
Speaker 1: And then speaking of getting to the quarterback, do you
Speaker 1: hear Greg Dortch when we brought up the Raiders Wolf. Yes,
Speaker 1: his first comment was, and I quote Chandler Jones, is
Speaker 1: a problem? Was after I asked him about the secondary
Speaker 1: Paul Yes, Remember I asked him about talk to me
Speaker 1: about the secondary of the Raiders, and he went his
Speaker 1: mind went to the pass rush. Unbelievable. So, just the
Speaker 1: amount of pressures that the Raiders, between Chandler Jones and
Speaker 1: Max Crosby they got last week on Justin Herbert, even
Speaker 1: though they didn't get to him and bring him down.
Speaker 1: It's really a credit to the Chargers quarterback. So and
Speaker 1: speaking to Chandler Jones all one of the great personalities
Speaker 1: in recent memory and one of our favorite all time
Speaker 1: guests in the Big Red Rage. Do you remember the
Speaker 1: time Wolf a couple of years ago when Chandler decided
Speaker 1: to imitate you. Oh no, By the way, Chandler Jones,
Speaker 1: do you prefer sack Master? You know, sack Man or
Speaker 1: maybe Wolf's backwaxer. What do you prefer? What is the
Speaker 1: proper title to wait before I tell you my preference?
Speaker 1: Kind person made him really think, Oh no, no, absolutely
Speaker 1: document Chandler Jones a PhD in backwaxing. That was awful.
Speaker 1: It was awful, But man was it entertaining. I mean, really,
Speaker 1: Professor Paul, I mean just watching him onte bitch truly
Speaker 1: is incredible. Watching these guys rush the passer. It's amazing
Speaker 1: asking Greg Dorch about the secondary. Talked to me about
Speaker 1: the secondary of the of the Raiders and he goes
Speaker 1: to the edge. What Paul receiver do that? I wrote
Speaker 1: it down and and and and I mean his eyes
Speaker 1: got big, and and the way he said it too,
Speaker 1: he was so emphatic. Chandler Jones is a problem. End
Speaker 1: of sentence. I mean, that's just so so amazing too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I just want to look for this on Sunday, Polly,
Speaker 1: Max Crosby. I mean, Chandler Jones is the most unorthodoxed
Speaker 1: pass rusher maybe in the history of the NFL. Max
Speaker 1: Crosby on the other side, he has three moves and
Speaker 1: they each come off each other. Paully, He's got the
Speaker 1: get the edge, get up the field, get the edge.
Speaker 1: He's got an explosive first step, get up the field,
Speaker 1: get the edge. He's got that move, and then he's
Speaker 1: got the inside move off getting up the edge, then
Speaker 1: come underneath, and then he's got the eurospin get up
Speaker 1: the field, fake inside, and then spin out in. It's
Speaker 1: almost unblockable, Paul, those three moves, that is his pass rush. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Chargers could not run the ball. They had two
Speaker 1: point five yards to carry. Max Krosby himself had ten tackles,
Speaker 1: eight on run plays. They say his motor. I talked
Speaker 1: to guys Wolf and there they say his motor is
Speaker 1: second to none. They said in the fourth quarter he
Speaker 1: was still running around the field. Just doesn't take a playoff.
Speaker 1: So that Cardinal's old line and the entire offense, the
Speaker 1: entire team's gonna have to take a big step from
Speaker 1: week one to week two. There's no doubt about it. Hey,
Speaker 1: special thanks Greg dortch Our guest to Jim Amhandro, Thank you,
Speaker 1: Laren Lauren Cobo, Thank you for Ron Wolf Lay Paul KELBC.
Speaker 1: This has been the Big Red Rage presented by santan
Speaker 1: Fo in Gilbert Number one kil You've been listening to
