1
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 1: Welcome Bird Gang. Yeah, it's another one of those Mondays

2
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 1: for a second straight week. We're left asking ourselves what's

3
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 1: wrong with the offense. How much is coaching, how much

4
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:21,080
Speaker 1: is execution? How much is the opponent? Bottom line? Things

5
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: need a change, and change in a hurry. But first,

6
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: an update on Larry Fitzgerald, how is he? Trent Sherfield

7
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: and Diante Thompson doing It's Cardinals Cover two, Episode three

8
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: sixty and it starts now. Welcome to Cardinals Cover two

9
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: with Craig Grigolu and Mike Jarecki. Cardinals Cover two is

10
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: presented by Hyundai, proud partner of the Arizona Cardinals, and

11
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: by Arizona Cardinals Podcasts. Visit asy Cardinals dot Com Slash Podcasts.

12
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: Murray rolls to the right, throws near sight of Fritz

13
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: barb Head. He's into the apside for the touchdown. Here's

14
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: Craig Grielou and Mike Jarecki. It's been often said MJ

15
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,960
Speaker 1: sports serves as a distraction, and we certainly all have

16
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: enjoyed the distraction of the National Football League. But let's

17
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: remember what we're dealing with right now. We're in the

18
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 1: midst of a pandemic COVID nineteen is here. It's not

19
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: going away. In fact, it's getting worse, not only here

20
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: in Arizona but across the country. So with that in mind,

21
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,119
Speaker 1: anytime you hear of a player landing on the reserve

22
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen list, it does make you take a step back.

23
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 1: And we discussed it last week. Larry Fitzgerald, Trent Sherfield,

24
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 1: and Deontay Thompson did not play in Sunday's game. Did

25
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: their absence affect the outcome? Perhaps? I wouldn't argue with

26
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: anyone who said that it didn't, because those three players

27
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: all play specific roles offense, defense, and special team specifically

28
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: that you could certainly make it a case that the

29
00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: presence of a fitz Sherfield or DT certainly would help

30
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: the Cardinals come away with the win. But we'll get

31
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: to what happened and what didn't happen at Gillette Stadium,

32
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 1: but we do need to let everyone know that according

33
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: to head coach Cliff Kingsbury, all three of those players,

34
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 1: and the words of Kingsbury quote hopeful that they will

35
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,679
Speaker 1: be back this week, and specifically about Fits that he

36
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: was doing well. I don't know anything about Sherfield or Thompson.

37
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,359
Speaker 1: But good to hear that because the health and safety

38
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: of everyone. But anytime you hear about COVID nineteen and

39
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: someone either testing positive or coming in close contact, that

40
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: is what you want to hear. On the other side,

41
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: is that one they are doing well and hopefully on

42
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: the way to coming back to where we all want

43
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 1: them to be, and that's on the football field. Yeah,

44
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: and that's something we mentioned last Friday. I reached out

45
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,239
Speaker 1: to Larry and he said he was feeling great, and

46
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: reached out to him. We exchanged mentions on game day

47
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 1: before the game, I know he was going to watch

48
00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 1: the game and he was quarantine and he said he

49
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: was feeling fine. So, um, that's good news. And you know,

50
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: to your point, Um, you know we're seeing we're starting

51
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: to see some of the big name players to Forrest Buckner,

52
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: Adam Delon, Lamar Jackson. And it doesn't mean it has

53
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,519
Speaker 1: to be star players, but it can affect anyone. Okay,

54
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: that's the point. I mean, obviously, these guys have protocols

55
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,839
Speaker 1: and you've got to stay with them. And if you're

56
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: you know, you have kids and they're out playing and

57
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,959
Speaker 1: they're coming home. I mean, there's always different circumstances, but

58
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 1: hopefully everyone's gonna be okay. Um, we know that. Um,

59
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: you know, the recovery rate is very good for you know,

60
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: obviously younger people. But prayers out to anybody that's been

61
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: affected by this. But from a football standpoint, we know

62
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 1: how well trend Shurefield plays on special teams. Um, we

63
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 1: know normally the Cardinals dressed five wide receivers. He only

64
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: dressed forty yesterday. And then when we know what Jalen

65
00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: Thompson um, when he's on the field, things settled out

66
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: on the secondary where you don't have to wait for

67
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: your backups. And Deontay Thompson's another guy even though, so

68
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: when we go through this and Deontay Thompson, when we

69
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: go through this, I mean, you're talking about three guys

70
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: that contribute in two other star to our starters, if

71
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 1: not role players for the Arizona Cardinals. Yeah, it certainly

72
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: was an absence that was felt. The final score twenty

73
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 1: to seventeen. The Cardinals lose the Patriots. They've now lost

74
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: two in a row, three of their last four. And

75
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: I think the big takeaway in what we saw on

76
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: Sunday MG is what now we have seen over the

77
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: past two Sundays with respects to the Seattle Seahawks and

78
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: then the Oruay Sunday Thursday night football. Excuse me, but

79
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: the Seahawks and Patriots and what they have done in

80
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: stopping or containing this Cardinals offense. And yeah, if you

81
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,159
Speaker 1: want to talk about special teams or the defense allowing

82
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: a third and thirteen conversion, that's fine. But for me,

83
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: right now, this team is only going to go as

84
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 1: far as the offense goes, like it or not. And

85
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 1: I know we make fun of it with Bertram Berry

86
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 1: on the Red Seat report. This is a quarterback driven league.

87
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: And you can say this about every team across the league,

88
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 1: all thirty two teams. If you have a quarterback, you

89
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: have a chance. And how your quarterback plays is how

90
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 1: your team plays, goes for everyone. And right now, Kyler

91
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: Murray and this offense are not playing as well as

92
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: they had earlier in the season or what they need

93
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: to play going into the month of December for this

94
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: final playoff push. Yeah, and the numbers back it up, Craig.

95
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 1: The Cardinals offense over the last two games has generated

96
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: only six hundred and twelve yards, averaging four point six

97
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: yards per play, scoring a total of thirty eight points.

98
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: And we talk about you know, splash plays, chump place,

99
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 1: you know, plays that are over twenty yards or forty yards.

100
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: The Cardinals only have two in the last two games,

101
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: and that happened on Thursday Night Football with you had

102
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: the Max Williams twenty five yard game and then the

103
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins twenty three. As you pointed on the postgame

104
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: show last night, the Cardinals longest play from scrimmage was

105
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: the first play of the game, Andy Isabella, for nineteen yards. Now,

106
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 1: we can get into some of the particulars based on

107
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 1: how teams are defending the Cardinals, but I would agree

108
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: with you and you start looking at some of these teams,

109
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: you know, that have their head coaches and quarterbacks in place.

110
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: Now we know that Brady's first year and they're obviously

111
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 1: going through when we went through with Carson Palmer. I

112
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: think Matt Lafloor stopped into a great situation with Aaron Rodgers.

113
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: But you look at Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes, you know,

114
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: you look at you know, Sean Payton, even though you

115
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: know Drew Brees isn't playing, but Tyson Hill has been there.

116
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: The teams that are going to survive this are the

117
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: teams that have the head coach in quarterback that have

118
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 1: been together for a while. I mean, people don't want

119
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: to hear this, but Cliff and Kyla are still learning,

120
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: but very few And if you want to say, if

121
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 1: this team's going to be able to stay in contention,

122
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: and you know, we believe that, it's still you know,

123
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: obviously feasible, it's really what Kyler Murray does because he's

124
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: the stir that mixes the drink here. I mean, we

125
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: could talk about the offensive line separation, the running game,

126
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: but it all starts with Kyler Murray and he hasn't

127
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: played particularly well from inside the pocket over the last

128
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: couple of games. And yeah, they're not getting those chunk

129
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: plays where once again we could sit here and say, oh,

130
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: I love these twelve fourteen play drives, but we know

131
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: you got to pick up two or three third downs.

132
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: They're probably gonna get a penalty in there, and then

133
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: when you get in the red zone, you got to

134
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: score touchdowns versus you know, nobody's saying you gotta throw bombs.

135
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: You know, the philosophy was throw five six a game.

136
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: You'll get two PI calls some live by that. I

137
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: think airings does no risk, it no biscuit, But they

138
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: have different players and I'm just using it as an analogy,

139
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: and it was interesting watching Belichick. You know the thing

140
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: about Hopkins, and I think it's very similar for Julio

141
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: Jones and maybe you know Mike Thomas, and I know

142
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: ex receivers line up on certain sides, but it just

143
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: seems like, you know, when he's on that side, either

144
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: going to take the number one corner and then get

145
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: safety over the help and listen, they've forgotten more football

146
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: than I don't ever know. But I wonder whether it

147
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: would be like to move Hopkins around and again and

148
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: probably you know, stopped out by boundaries because that's what

149
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: extus receivers do. But you know, it's just it's just

150
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 1: they're not getting the splash plays in the office. Now,

151
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: it's a small sample, but I think we're seeing a

152
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: trend and it's a copycat league. And Cliff didn't Kyle Odeger,

153
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: I believe it. I said, our team's figuring out the

154
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 1: ofference and it's listen, it's a copycat league. So what

155
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: you did in the last four games with teams look

156
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: at when they go back and watch film, and I

157
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: think it all started with Brian Flores and Mattia and

158
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: now it's carrying over to the Belichick clone. So I

159
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 1: don't to me, it's about execution and matchup. So if

160
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: they feel like, you know, they're going to stack the box,

161
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: then you have to counter with that stuff. And this

162
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 1: is something that I want to get into because there's

163
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,839
Speaker 1: three components of this. Is it the coaching, is that

164
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: the execution? Is it the opponent? And keep in mind

165
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: these past two games, Pete Carroll, Bill Belichick two of

166
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 1: the longest reigning head coaches in the National Football League.

167
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 1: They've been around a long long time. What they're seeing

168
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 1: now on Sundays is nothing new to them, or if

169
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: it's something that is a little bit brand new, they've

170
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: come away with a counter very very quickly. Now, Kingsbury

171
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: did not like that term figured out when asked about

172
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 1: have teams kind of figure out how to handle Kyler Murray.

173
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 1: But I'm in agreement with you, MJ. And it's that

174
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: quarterback position. You're going to get all of the credit

175
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: more so than you deserve, and you're going to get

176
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: all of the blame more so than you deserve. But

177
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 1: because of this unique skill set that Kyler Murray has

178
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: throwing the ball, great arm strength, and then his ability

179
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: to run with the football like a running back but

180
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: very elusive. He has to be Kyler Murray for this

181
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: team to win, and we haven't seen it now. Is

182
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 1: at the right shoulder? Both Kingsbury Murray yesterday said no,

183
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: nothing was dialed back, nothing was taken out of the

184
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: playbook because of his shoulder. If that's the case, then

185
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 1: why isn't Kyler Murray running the ball or at least

186
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 1: showing that he can run the football. And if teams

187
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,959
Speaker 1: are going to take that away, then okay, Now it's

188
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: on the coaching staff to say, all right, they're taking

189
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: away your ability to run, all right, then you need

190
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: to stand in the pocket, you need to roll out,

191
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: you need to slide protection one way or the other

192
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: and throw the ball downfield. I just haven't seen that

193
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: enough in the past two weeks. Yeah, And it's interesting

194
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: when you said slide the pocket, I think Russell Wilson doesn't.

195
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,599
Speaker 1: And I'm watching the Chiefs game and the highlights and

196
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes he literally just goes outside the pocket, and

197
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: you know, obviously his delivery. Kyler can throw those balls too.

198
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: But you know, obviously, you know, Mahomes got a lot

199
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 1: more starts, and he's been in that system under Andy,

200
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: really learned from Alex Smith. You know, here Kyler hasn't

201
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 1: been able to learn from a veteran quarterback because he

202
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 1: knew the system. But there are NFL principles and concepts,

203
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 1: and we know what the hash marks. You can't run

204
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 1: this four wide all the time, and I think clips

205
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: proven and he's willing to to look at eleven and

206
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 1: twelve personnel, but you've got a counter. So I think

207
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: it's a combination. If they're going to put a spy

208
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 1: on him, which that's what I would do, where you

209
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,319
Speaker 1: have a linebacker, that's if he goes this way, this

210
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 1: way easier said than done, because that means somebody else

211
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: should be open. But in they've forgotten more football than

212
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 1: I know. But to the naked eye, you could see

213
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: teams are trying to box him in and keep him

214
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: in there. And yet yesterday Darryl Johnson during the broadcast said,

215
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: you know, he needs to step up in the pocket.

216
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: Now we get into bat at balls. It's not the

217
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: easiest for a guy like that he's got to find

218
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 1: a you know, a crease or a slipper to make

219
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: those throws. And so but to me, if you have

220
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 1: to do what Mark Trustman did with j Plummer, you

221
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: move them outside the pocket, you cut the field in half.

222
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: Now again you have to make sure receivers come back

223
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: to the ball. But I'm sure they're watching a lot

224
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: of film trying to figure this out. So this is

225
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: nothing that is earth shattering. It's just we see it,

226
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,199
Speaker 1: and I think other opposing teams are seeing it now.

227
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: And it's a copycat league. So again, it's about matchups,

228
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: it's about execution, and if they're going to load the box,

229
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 1: you have to counter. This is not the first time

230
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: we've had this discussion, and this is not bird Gang

231
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: a one game sample size. When you have two games

232
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, that's a trend. But remember

233
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: what we talked about after Detroit week three, All right,

234
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 1: maybe the team has been discovered, maybe Murray has been

235
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: figured out. And then the next week get Carolina. The

236
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: entire team just didn't look like they wanted to be there. Well,

237
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: that's a two game losing streak. After those two games,

238
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: the Cardinals went on a five game run where they

239
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: had thirty or more points and four hundred plus yards

240
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: of total offense, and now all of a sudden, in

241
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: back to back games, the yardage total has dropped significantly

242
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: by more than one hundred yards. But it's the scoring

243
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:50,199
Speaker 1: twenty one points, seventeen points. This just in MG, you

244
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: have to score. And I know the scoring has come

245
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: down a little bit, and I think that's just kind

246
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: of natural as the season progresses. The Cardinals. The Cardinals

247
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: are still a top ten scoring offense despite what has

248
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,719
Speaker 1: happened in the past two weeks. But December football is

249
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 1: the hardest football weather playoffs. The intensity ratchet is up.

250
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: You know, the Cardinals better be ready for this. And

251
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,199
Speaker 1: until they show it, you know, I'm left to say,

252
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't know at this point. I

253
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 1: don't know if they can compete over these last five games.

254
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: And maybe that's an over exaggeration, but I could certainly

255
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: see this team going five and oh and I could

256
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: see this team going oh and five. Yeah, And you

257
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: know how I feel about losing streaks, And if you

258
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: go on two or three game losing streaks, I mean

259
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: there's just daggers and you know, people are going to say, well,

260
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: and it's true, they're a hall mary away from being

261
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 1: on a longer losing streak. And you know, I don't

262
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if they were reading their press clippings

263
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 1: and they were getting a lot of pub that week,

264
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: and you know, we know what happened in the Seattle

265
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: Seahawks game, and you know, I start thinking about, you know,

266
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: leadership in the lot for him, and because I listened

267
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: to Bill Belichick last week and he said our leaders

268
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: had really done a good job. And when you lose

269
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: Corey Peters and Chandler Jones again not rail road guys,

270
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: but they're leaders. And then losing a guy like Larry Fitzgerald, Um,

271
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: you know, Larry's not a rail rod guy. He's when

272
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: he speaks, though, it's more you have to go to

273
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 1: him and he'll give you. He's not going to stand

274
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 1: in front of the scream and yell and say do

275
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: your job. I mean that you're expected to do that.

276
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: So and then I think they missed Corey Peters on

277
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: the field. Nothing against Pecco and we're talking about a

278
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: guy that was good run stuff or so just getting

279
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: into some of the particulars, but I do think they

280
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: missed Chandler and Corey Peters, not only on the field,

281
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: but just being around the team every day. Just just

282
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: that leadership. You know. Um, I think Buddha Baker and

283
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: I didn't hear his name called a lot yesterday. And

284
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: we know Patrick, you know, is obviously a statesman and

285
00:15:56,200 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: a veteran guy. Um, Jordan Hicks, I think he's a leader.

286
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: But I'm just saying, I just think they missed that

287
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: a little bit. But that has nothing to do why

288
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: they lost yesterday. No, So those respected voices, some calming voices,

289
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: either in the locker room or on the sideline, but

290
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: it doesn't factor into you know, total numbers, total yards,

291
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: touchdowns in that sort. But it is something that should

292
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: be acknowledged, and we do that here on Cardinals Cover two,

293
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: presented by Hunday product partner of the Arrow Zona Cardinals

294

Speaker 1: Cardinals dot com slash app for more. I want to

298
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 1: touch on something that Murray said yesterday post game, because

299
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: I got to admit MJ looking back I'm gonna have

300
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 1: to disagree with the Cardinals quarterback, he said, because everyone's

301
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: talking about his rushing totals and the fact that he

302
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: hasn't been able to run the football like we saw

303
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 1: earlier in the year. Postgame after the Cardinals lost twenty

304
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: to seventeen, quote, I don't think I have to run

305
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: for us to be successful. End quote. The numbers to

306
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: tell a whole different story, MJ. And now we know

307
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: Murray prefers to stand in the pocket and throw the football,

308
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,639
Speaker 1: get the ball into the hands of his playmakers. That's great,

309
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: but that's not what we've seen. When this Cardinals team

310
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 1: is winning, Kyler Murray is successful and unlike any other

311
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: quarterback across the league, when he has that dual threat,

312
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: you take that away, then you take away this entire offense.

313
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: At least that's the appearance, especially over the past two weeks.

314
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: Five losses this season, Murray has carried the ball five

315
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: six eleven that was the Dolphins game five and five

316
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: fews Russian attempts and a win this season eight against Washington.

317
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: He has to be a runner. And I know in

318
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: the offseason we had this discussion. We're both a little

319
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: leary about having him run as much as he has

320
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: so far this season. When I'm at a point here

321
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 1: after twelve weeks that Kyler Murray needs to run the

322
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 1: football in order for this team to win, because if

323
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 1: he doesn't, and he doesn't want to or isn't able to,

324
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 1: then he is no different than about two thirds of

325
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: the rest of the quarterbacks in the National Football League.

326
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 1: He's average, and we all know Kyler Murray is not average. No,

327
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,919
Speaker 1: but I think teams are taking that away though. I mean,

328
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 1: you know, the zone read in the RPOs, I mean

329
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: he RPOs, run, run pass. I mean he has the

330
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: ability to handoff, he has the ability to run, or

331
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 1: he has the ability to pass. So there's three options there.

332
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 1: Zone read is you watch the defensive ends. If they're

333
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: going to cheat and try to get you know, the

334
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: ball carry, he can take it. But I just think

335
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: teams are they're boxing him in. But again, you got

336
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 1: to get more protection from the offensive line. You know,

337
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 1: I thought these guys would be a lot better. But

338
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 1: again you're going against Belichick, and you know, got to

339
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: give him credit that goal line stance and all that

340
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 1: other stuff. But yeah, I'm with you, that's what makes

341
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: him so dynamic, But I don't want him to run

342
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: just to run. I want I want to be a

343
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 1: purpose and if he wants to stay in the pocket,

344
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 1: then stay in the pocket and make the throws. You know.

345
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 1: But again he's got to worry about bad at balls.

346
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 1: And that wasn't something an issue in college because again,

347
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: the hash marks the lineman don't as close together. But

348
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 1: I just think I thought, you know, I said this

349
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: last night, and I mean it, like, going into the season,

350
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 1: they added DeAndre Hopkins, they pretty much had the same offense, okay,

351
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 1: and I talked about stability in the front office and

352
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 1: the quarterback and the coach and the continuity with the

353
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 1: coaching staff. Defense, they've added you know, X amount of

354
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: new players and they keep bringing them in because of injuries.

355
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: You know, the secondary has been hit, the linebacking corps

356
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:03,439
Speaker 1: at certain points, and then line and I thought, quite frankly,

357
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: the defense played it well enough to win that game yesterday,

358
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 1: and here the offense is kind of still trying to

359
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: figure it out. I thought we would be further along

360
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,120
Speaker 1: in the process. And again, the other team gets paid

361
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: and you're going against Belichick. So maybe it's not a

362
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,880
Speaker 1: great example, but it's happened in consecutive weeks. So let's

363
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: use the boxing analogy. Punch CounterPunch, You get knocked down,

364
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 1: you stand back up, and then you go on the offensive.

365
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: If the Cardinals are now looking at the past two

366
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: weeks in which the Seahawks and Patriots have said, Kyle Murray,

367
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: you're not going to run, but the Cardinals know in

368
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: order for this offense to be effective, he has to

369
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,360
Speaker 1: have some semblance of a rushing attack or the ability

370
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: to run. So if you're the Cardinals and I don't, folks,

371
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't have the answers, and I'm not

372
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: putting it pinned on UMJ as far as what the

373
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 1: answer is, but it's on the Cardinals and specifically the

374
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: coaching step. This is where the coaches come into play

375
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: because now they have to figure out a way to

376
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: game plan against what the Seahawks and Patriots have done,

377
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:08,160
Speaker 1: give that plan to the players for them to execute

378
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: on Sundays. Yeah, And I always say Kyler Murray, we

379
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 1: have to include him. He's a luxury though. But when

380
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: we get to the top two guys, I mean Kenyan

381
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: Drake and Chase Evans, I mean Kyler, I mean in

382
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: the perfect scenario five to seven carries a game. I

383
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 1: mean the fact that he's got to do nine or ten.

384
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 1: And I know why because he's so dynamic and he

385
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 1: make people missing the open field and he makes grown

386
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: men and look silly at times. But really the running

387
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: game is that the two running backs, and he adds

388
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 1: a luxury to it. I just think they're becoming reliable

389
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: on him. But again, you know, Drake's getting his carries Chase,

390
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,399
Speaker 1: they're trying to work back in the mix. They actually

391
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: threw the ball to Drake a little bit more than

392
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: I thought because they had some young players and didn't

393
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 1: have fits out there, and you know, Isabella was playing

394
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 1: in the slot and Kirk was playing on the outside

395
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 1: hop and they try to use a tight end. So

396
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: I just look at it to where we've gotten spoiled

397
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: with Murray's running. So it's become more of a crutch,

398
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: if you will, something that this team leaned on, maybe

399
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 1: a little bit too much earlier in the season and

400
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 1: become reliable or no. I just think that's who he is.

401
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 1: But to say every game he's got to have X

402
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 1: amount of carries, I mean, it's the flow of the game.

403
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 1: And if they take them out, then you may look

404
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,520
Speaker 1: like Cliffs said, if I have to throw it fifty times,

405
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 1: we'll throw it fifty times. No, I'm I'm just saying

406
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: he's part of the run game, but we also got

407
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 1: to look at he also is the quarterback. You know. Again,

408
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: the reason, the reason why he's so dynamic is what

409
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 1: he can do in the open field with the bombs.

410
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 1: I don't want that to change, but I just think

411
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 1: it's a luxury because he's You got to get something

412
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 1: out of the running backs. And I'm not saying they're

413
00:22:58,119 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: not doing their job, because they're only going to be

414
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: as good as the offensive line in the protection. And

415
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: it just seems like two teams are stacking the line

416
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: saying we're gonna we're gonna shut this run game down

417
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 1: and we're gonna for shoot and throw the ball. And again,

418
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,120
Speaker 1: if you're dinking and duncan, that's fine, but you better

419
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 1: pick up third downs and you better avoid penalties. Murray

420
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 1: doesn't need to rush for eighty ninety one hundred yards

421
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: a game, and everyone now is focused on this thirty

422
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 1: yard stat. I went back though, looking at last season

423
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: and this season, it's really a forty yard stat. If

424
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 1: he's under forty yards, Cardinals are three eleven and one,

425
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: So that's the benchmark that we're looking at. But to

426
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,880
Speaker 1: your point, if he doesn't need to run, then you've

427
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: got to be more effective. And this is something Kingsbury

428
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: brought up earlier, the consistency and a sense of urgency

429
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 1: in the passing game. So if you're taking away the run,

430
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,159
Speaker 1: or at least Murray's ability to run, then that falls

431
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 1: on the passing game and the wide receiver. And here

432
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 1: is where you're kind of limited on television because you

433
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: don't see the routes. Are they getting open? Are they

434
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 1: getting separation? Kyler Murray has time to throw the football.

435
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 1: The offensive line is giving him time, and Murray can

436
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 1: buy time with his scrambling ability in the pocket. So

437
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 1: the onus now becomes wide receiver, tight end, running backs,

438
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 1: whomever's out there as a pass catcher. Are they doing enough?

439
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: And if not, what can they do to get this

440
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 1: offense back into a rhythm, back into a flow where

441
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 1: all options are on the table. Okay, good point. Again.

442
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 1: I don't want him to change, though, but I just

443
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 1: I don't think we should be relying on him. You know,

444
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: what he brings and it's not like you know, a

445
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 1: cherry on the Sunday. He's part of the running game.

446
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 1: But again, if they're gonna do that, run the football, running,

447
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 1: download his throat and then all of a sudden they're

448
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 1: gonna have to make adjustments. But yeah, I just look

449
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:05,399
Speaker 1: at it from his standpoint of he's a guy that

450
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: says he wants to make decisions in the pocket. But

451
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, again, there's got to be a

452
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 1: solution here though. I mean, it's it's it's football is

453
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: about matchups and executions. But you're right, I mean, they

454
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 1: have to be more consistent in the passing game. And

455
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 1: yesterday I noticed that there were there was a lot

456
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: of poor spacing. We're seeing receivers right next to each other. Now,

457
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 1: you take Larry out and Isabella obviously has been here

458
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 1: long enough to know the routes. But there was times

459
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: when he was throwing there like two guys right next

460
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: to each other. I don't that shouldn't happen. Now, I'm

461
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 1: gonna ask Cliff on Wednesday. Is that more a product

462
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,719
Speaker 1: of what they were doing? Because we usually the RPO

463
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, the um the air right offense is reps

464
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: and execution, but it's also creating space in the open field.

465
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,639
Speaker 1: You can't have two receivers right next to each other.

466
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 1: The other thing that's been brought up is the amount

467
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 1: of times opposing teams are now blitzing Kyla Murray. That

468
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 1: seems to be an answer with respect to making sure

469
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 1: that he gets that ball out of his hands a

470
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: lot quicker ESPN Stats and Info and I saw this

471
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: via Mike Reas's Twitter account. He covers the Patriots for

472
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: ESPN dot Com. But the Patriots yesterday MJ blitzed Murray

473
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 1: on thirty five percent of his dropbacks. He went six

474
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 1: to eleven with an interception and a sack against the blitz,

475
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: averaging four point seven yards per attempt. And if you

476
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: look over the chorus of Murray's career facing the blitz,

477
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:43,400
Speaker 1: he has thrown more interceptions than touchdowns seven to six

478
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: for his career. Now, Kingsbury was asked about that because

479
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: the metrics are out there and we all see it,

480
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: so now we asked the coaching staff about it, and

481
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,719
Speaker 1: Kingsbury didn't think Murray is getting blitzed than any other

482
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: quarterback might be getting blitz at this point in the season.

483
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 1: But once again, numbers are telling us that something is

484
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 1: not clicking. And I'm sure the coaches know about it,

485
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 1: and I'm sure the players know about it. What they

486
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: tell us, that's telling everyone the game plan. And I

487
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 1: get that part. But we all have the same questions

488
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: and right now we don't have a lot of answers,

489
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: and we have to wait until Sunday to get these answers.

490
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 1: And when you lose, that's a long time before you

491
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: get to see this team back in action. Well, I

492
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:32,440
Speaker 1: mean the NFL, and I appreciate the fan base and

493
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 1: how passionate they are, but you know a lot of

494
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: times on Monday it's over reaction. But if I Zane

495
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: Gonzalis thanks to kick, if Christian Kirk catches a touchdown

496
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 1: and give Keyshaw Johnson a lot of credit to get

497
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 1: down there. I mean, but that's the NFL is about

498
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 1: four or five or six plays, and it usually comes

499
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 1: down to the fourth quarter. And we have two teams

500
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 1: come back from double digit down yesterday. It's just little

501
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 1: things that or there shouldn't. Like I said this on

502
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: the post game, they're margin fair is so small right now,

503
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 1: they can't afford I mean, you held Kem Newton in

504
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 1: what eighty four yards and two interceptions, and you knew

505
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,120
Speaker 1: he was gonna run. There was no way they're gonna

506
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 1: let him pass and advances in advance, you know. I

507
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: looked it up Yo City. The Cardinals are the most

508
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: blitz team in the league. They're bits some forty three

509
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: percent of the time because they have to cover some

510
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 1: of their blemishes or there are some of their holes

511
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 1: in the front seven, and they got to create some pressure. Again,

512
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 1: it's it's a copycat league. But I think defensively, you know, besides,

513
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: you know, they're not stopping Cam on third and thirteen

514
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 1: or fourteen yards. I thought they did a really good job.

515
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: I thought they cut that team in the game. And

516
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: I don't think they get enough credit. I really don't.

517
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: But it's a team game. As Kyle Oldegard wrote one week,

518
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: it's going to be the offense, oneby is going to

519
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: be the defense. There's no finger pointing going on. But

520
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 1: I just look at it like this offense should be

521
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 1: further along than they are right now. You mentioned the

522
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: little things, and those little things become magnified when you're

523
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 1: on the losing end. And if you look at all

524
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: eleven games this team has played only one game. You

525
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 1: could go and say they did not or they weren't competitive,

526
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: or they didn't have an opportunity down the stretch to

527
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: pull it out fourth quarter, five minutes to go, they

528
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: weren't in position to win. And that's the game at Carolina.

529
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 1: Other than that, you lose by three to the Lions,

530
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 1: you lose by three to the Dolphins, by seven to

531
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, and now by three to the Patriots. Cardinals

532
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 1: are in these ball games. And that's why there's such

533
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: frustration from the fan base and from us here on

534
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 1: Cardinals cover two because how many times over the past

535
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 1: previous four or five years that this team never even

536
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 1: had a shot in the fourth quarter, maybe not even

537
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 1: in the second half. And here the Cardinals are in

538
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 1: position to pull these games out and maybe have seven

539
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: eight nine wins and not looking over their shoulder. MJ.

540
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: This team is looking over its shoulder right now. And

541
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 1: we can get into that maybe tomorrow, because I don't

542
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: want to focus on, Hey, you know what, they got lucky,

543
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: the Rams lost, the Bears lost. Cardinals need to win.

544
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: You want to be in control of your own destiny,

545
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 1: not relying on somebody else having to lose on a

546
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: Sunday in order for you to start playing games in January. Yeah,

547
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: and I mean I don't want because I don't want

548
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: to look ahead. I'm tired of looking ahead. I mean,

549
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 1: you know, we know, they get who I know who

550
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 1: they're playing, and everyone say, oh, that's a Winnabowl game. Okay, yes,

551
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: say it was Winnabow. The Seahawks game going in was Winnabowl.

552
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 1: I know it was, you know, on the road. But

553
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 1: they've won up their different regimes, but they proved they

554
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 1: could win the under kick Cliff Kingsbury. I mean, it's

555
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 1: just again the margin for error, and when you're scoring

556
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 1: twenty nine points a game, sometimes you overlook that stuff

557
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 1: when you only you know, put up thirty eight points

558
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: in the last two games. Now, all of a sudden,

559
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: things start to get unraveled a little bit. And now

560
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,080
Speaker 1: we're you know, saying, all right, our teams have they

561
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 1: figured out Colin Murray's the blueprint out there? Well, like

562
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: you said, that's on the coaching stand. I don't. I

563
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: don't have the answers. I mean, and I watched the game.

564
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 1: I try to figure things out. I talk to people,

565
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 1: and I just know that they're still learning. But it's

566
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: the NFL. I mean, there's only sixteen weeks and you

567
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: can't give games away. And it's happened a couple of

568
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 1: times this yeared. You know, yes, say, obviously one's going

569
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 1: to look at Zane Gonzales, but you know, in the

570
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 1: perfect world, that doesn't come down to a kick. Yeah,

571
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 1: it never comes down to one play because as we've said,

572
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: it's half a dozen plays typically to the scale one

573
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 1: way or other. But let's touch on Zane Gonzalez. Because

574
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: Kingsbury was asked about it after the ballgame, he was

575
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 1: asked about it earlier today, he was asked about it

576
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 1: on his Coaches show, and he is one not worried

577
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 1: about Zane Gonzalez as far as mental makeup in these

578
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 1: pressure kicks. And he certainly is doubling down on saying

579
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 1: that he has full confidence in Zane Gonzalez. Now to

580
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: a certain extent, he might have to say that publicly

581
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: because you don't want it broadcast, you don't want it

582
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: on social media, that coach not behind place kicker as

583
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 1: headlines which we would see. But it is something to

584
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: keep an eye on because now if you look at it,

585
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: Gonzalez has three misses in the final two minutes of

586
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 1: regulation or overtime in the last five games. Yesterday at

587
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: the Patriots, he was short on a forty nine yard

588
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 1: attempt against the Dolphins, And don't forget he missed an

589
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: opportunity to beat the Seahawks in overtime. He was given

590
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 1: a second chance and was able to do it, and

591
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 1: he did send that game into overtime. But three times

592
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: now in the past five games, you're relying on a kicker,

593
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: but the best kickers come through, and right now, Zane

594
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 1: Gonzalez is not coming through. Yeah, and we've been out

595
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 1: on the other end of that. You look at the

596
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 1: Miami game, you look at the game yesterday. You know,

597
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 1: you know, to me, we're not talking. You know, I'm

598
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 1: not saying a forty nine field goes a chip shop,

599
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 1: because I go back to when the Bills lost a

600
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: certain one. I thought they could have got closer. And

601
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: I mean, but we're not talking about fifty three fifty

602
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: four extra points were thirty three yards. Now, yes, okay,

603
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: so that's an extra point. Now forty to forty nine nine,

604
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: you should be somewhere and I have to look it up,

605
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: but I know there's only a couple of Justin Tuckers

606
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 1: out there, and you know mcmannon and the guy in Miami,

607
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: and but forty to forty nine, that means you're getting close,

608
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 1: but you're not close enough to get a touchdown. So

609
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 1: you've got to come with points. And his numbers from

610
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 1: forty to forty nine, to me, they stick out. Where

611
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: does he rank Probably in the lower third when it

612
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,319
Speaker 1: comes to a percentage from forty to forty nine. Though

613
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 1: he's eight of twelve on kicks between forty and forty nine,

614
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: and he only has one other miss this season. That

615
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,800
Speaker 1: was Week one against the forty nine ers. He was

616
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 1: off on a fifty two yard attempt. That's fine, But

617
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: I think you're right because as we see as athletes

618
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 1: get better and the game progresses, whether you're talking about football, basketball, baseball, hockey,

619
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: the numbers that we first thought, you know, the three

620
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:52,840
Speaker 1: point line gets pushed back all of a sudden. You know,

621
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 1: one hundred yards rushing is not as difficult as it

622
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 1: once was. There are new benchmarks that I think we

623
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 1: have to kind of get used to, and perhaps now

624
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:05,240
Speaker 1: forty to forty nine is supposed to be quote unquote

625
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 1: automatic in this day and age for teams that have

626
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 1: a reliable kicker and someone you can count on. And yes,

627
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,360
Speaker 1: it's one play, and you can make an argument the

628
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 1: offense should not even have been in that position for

629
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 1: Zane Gonzalez, but he was and he needs to make

630
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 1: that kick. Yeah, and you know the Cardinals do have

631
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,879
Speaker 1: Mike Nugent on the practice Squadne and I were talking

632
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,760
Speaker 1: earlier and I thought he was in his mid thirties,

633
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: but you inform me he's thirty eight. Yeah, turned thirty

634
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 1: eight in March and hasn't kicked since last year with

635
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:42,719
Speaker 1: the New England Patriots. Correct. Yeah, I mean, I can

636
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 1: just tell you this. They like Zane Gonzales, they like

637
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: the age, They liked either the power of the kick,

638
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 1: and we know Jeff Rogers sistant head coach. Ultimately it's

639
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:59,439
Speaker 1: Steve Kime and Cliff Kingsbury. I don't know if they're

640
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 1: ready to make a move. And I and I said

641
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:03,840
Speaker 1: this last night, and I would think he would be

642
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 1: a guy. You people aren't gonna like this, but I

643
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 1: would think when you start looking at your core moving forward,

644
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 1: and I know we're talking about kickers or dime, a

645
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 1: dozen't not necessarily if you get a good one, you

646
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 1: keep them. Um, but I would think you would be

647
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 1: on the radar for an extension out that probably is

648
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 1: out the door right now because we need to see.

649
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,320
Speaker 1: But Craig, when he lines up, now, what do you

650
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: think the fan base is doing? And holding their breath.

651
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,839
Speaker 1: You're you're turning your head, you're covering your eyes, you're

652
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,399
Speaker 1: doing everything. It's like watching a scary movie because you're

653
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 1: not sure what you're gonna what to expect. That's not

654
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 1: and that's not a good feeling. And listen, this is

655
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: he signed up for it. It's a professional and um,

656
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:45,439
Speaker 1: it's not personal. There's pressure involved, but he's been he's

657
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,919
Speaker 1: been doing it for a long time. I mean even

658
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: in college. There's pressure here. Now you're getting paid and

659
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:51,439
Speaker 1: you gotta go in the locker room and you gotta

660
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 1: face the guys. I'm sure he feels awful, Okay, I'm

661
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 1: sure just until like you just said, he can't do

662
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 1: anything about it until him next week. So it's gonna

663
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,320
Speaker 1: I'm as a person, it's eating him up, knowing what

664
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: you know people are saying. And I'm not ready to

665
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 1: give up on him, but I think at some point

666
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 1: you've got to find out what's between the years, like

667
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 1: what has been different. You know, again, these are pressure kicks.

668
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 1: It's like a golfer. You know, when he's gonna make

669
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 1: a put, you get the yips. I don't see that though,

670
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 1: I mean wide right came up a little bit short.

671
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: It's just hard. It's hard to comprehend, like why aren't

672
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 1: these kicks going through. I'm not saying he's got to

673
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,839
Speaker 1: go ten for ten though, don't get me wrong here.

674
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,200
Speaker 1: And when you're getting rushed, it's a lot different than

675
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,840
Speaker 1: kicking in practice. You could try to simulate it, but

676
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:47,920
Speaker 1: it's not the same. And I'm not saying that he

677
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: needed a preseason or anything like that. It's they work.

678
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 1: They work at their craft every single day. But it's

679
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 1: just different when the big lights around and the game's

680
00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 1: on the line, and some guys um they welcome and

681
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: some guys they'll do it and they just hope it

682
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: goes in. And I don't know where he is there

683
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 1: because I gotta think mentally, it's knowing when every time

684
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 1: he steps on the field, not I have to make

685
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:14,319
Speaker 1: this kick. There's no like, there's no like fine line.

686
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 1: It's like my job's on the line. If from him,

687
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Even though they're consistent about

688
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: they like them, they look at the big picture young.

689
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 1: You know, again, this is a year to year proposition

690
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: when it comes to this position. But I think clearly

691
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 1: they want him to succeed, but he has to succeed.

692
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 1: He had made five straight field goals after that miss

693
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 1: against the Dolphins, and then obviously that streak ended with

694
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: the miss yesterday at the Patriots. And I know it

695
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: was very easy on cardinal talk for fans to sale

696
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: he's got to go get rid of them. And you know,

697
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 1: now with twenty four hours removed from that, and I

698
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:55,280
Speaker 1: wish I had said something about it, because it's easy

699
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: to say get rid of somebody, But the flip side

700
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 1: is who who are you getting to replace A Zing Gonzalez?

701
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 1: And I don't know if there's anyone out there that

702
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 1: is any better because it's not just field goals, it's

703
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: pats and it's kickoffs. So you're asking now someone to

704
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: do three different things. And yes, it comes with the

705
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 1: job as a place kicker, but in this day and

706
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 1: age a COVID nineteen protocols and restrictions, I don't know

707
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 1: if Mike Nugent's the answer, and it just might be

708
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,720
Speaker 1: something that you know what, you keep your fingers crossed

709
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,840
Speaker 1: and hope that zing Gonzalez figures it out and he

710
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,280
Speaker 1: comes through for you in the month of December. Because

711
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 1: if there's a guy walking on the street that can

712
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,799
Speaker 1: do a better job than Zing Gonzales, I'm sorry, bird Gang,

713
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 1: he's on another team, you know, Zane Obviously he had

714
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,359
Speaker 1: a growing injury and Cleveland decided it's time to move

715
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 1: on and all that stuff. And but yeah, I'm with you.

716
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 1: I mean I hear this all the time. Just go

717
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 1: out and sign a guy. Okay, First of all, you

718
00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 1: better make sure you're aware of the COVID protocols. It's

719
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 1: not his easy is bringing a guy off the street

720
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:06,319
Speaker 1: and signing him and having him in uniform. You better

721
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 1: know what they you know what the long snapper and

722
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,600
Speaker 1: holder are doing. I mean, there's these guys hang out

723
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,439
Speaker 1: all the time. I mean, it's just not as easy.

724
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: It's like, hey, let's go to the store and get

725
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 1: a new pair of jeans. Right, I'm sorry, it's they

726
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 1: have intel on this guy. Yeah, I mean, guys drop passes,

727
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: but we don't. Hey, you dropped the pass. It's just

728
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:32,400
Speaker 1: when the game's on the line and we look at

729
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,839
Speaker 1: the last result, and again, his job is to make kicks.

730
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 1: But I totally agree with you, and you're exactly right.

731
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 1: There's not a guy in the street right now, and

732
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 1: I don't get it. Don't send me names, because there's

733
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,800
Speaker 1: a reason why he's on the street. If he was

734
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 1: all that and a bag of chips, don't you think

735
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 1: somebody would bring that person in? Um, you know, they

736
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 1: look at Gaskowski. I thought he was a great cooker.

737
00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 1: I mean, they go through ups and downs and hopefully

738
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: he can break out of this snap because if they're

739
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 1: gonna win some close games, they're gonna need them. And

740
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: I think that's the organization says, he still gives us

741
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 1: the best chance to win. And Cardinal fans one eight

742
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:16,800
Speaker 1: hundred give me new kicker keep walking because that's not happening,

743
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:20,680

00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: I say that Craig, they're gonna see anybody out there's

751
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,879
Speaker 1: better than this guy. You know what I mean? It's

752
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:50,759
Speaker 1: like anyways, listen, I understand the passion and all that,

753
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:55,080
Speaker 1: and you know, this team got everyone excited. They built

754
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 1: up some credibility. But let's be honest. I mean, if

755
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 1: they get to seven wins in the first in December,

756
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:02,560
Speaker 1: I think we were signed up for that. It's just

757
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 1: you build up that equity and all of a sudden,

758
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 1: we're expected that the Cardinals are expected to win every week.

759
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 1: It's the NFL. Was that game winnaball yesterday? Yes, that's

760
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 1: what's disappointed that today we're having this conversation. Yeah, expectations

761
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 1: change a lot of things, and that's exactly what's happened

762
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 1: here in twenty twenty. Before we sign off on this

763
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 1: Monday edition of Cardinals Covered two. Maybe a little overreaction Monday,

764
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 1: but a couple of notes that we need to point

765
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 1: out to the bird Gang. One, For those that look

766
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 1: at the Cardinals schedule week sixteen, you would have noticed

767
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 1: that it was TBD as far as what day Saturday

768
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,719
Speaker 1: or Sunday, the twenty sixth or the twenty seventh, well,

769
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 1: the league announced today that the Cardinals will host the

770
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers on Saturday, December twenty sixth at two

771
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:54,480
Speaker 1: thirty pm. It's part of a day after Christmas triple

772
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 1: header sandwich between Buccaneers at Lyons and Dolphins at Raiders.

773
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: Those two games will be televised on the NFL Network.

774
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 1: Cardinals forty nine Ers will be streamed exclusively on Amazon

775
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 1: Prime Video and Twitch. Course for the bird Gang locally,

776
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 1: you'll be able to watch it on Fox ten. So

777
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: Week sixteen, the Cardinals will play on Saturday, and we

778
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 1: got a taste of Saturday football, or that's coming up,

779
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 1: I should say, because once you get into December and

780
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 1: college football is taken off that Saturday schedule get more

781
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 1: and more games played on Saturday. The Cardinals will get

782
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 1: their opportunity to coming up in week sixteen when they

783
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:36,760
Speaker 1: host the forty nine ers. Yeah, and if you're not familiar,

784
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 1: the Cardinals and the forty nine ers have an agreement.

785
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:42,720
Speaker 1: San Francisco is going to make their way to the Desert.

786
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 1: There's a lot of particulars involved, So I definitely over

787
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 1: the course of the week, but you know, maybe a

788
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 1: week and a half ago, Craig I was thinking three

789
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,960
Speaker 1: team race. That was an impressive win for the Niners,

790
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:01,279
Speaker 1: and they really went a game back the division and

791
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:06,319
Speaker 1: Cardinals got the Rams twice. They're coming off a disappointing loss. Yes,

792
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,319
Speaker 1: they got the Eagles and Giants, and you know, we'll

793
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 1: see what happens tonight with the Eagles. But there's no

794
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,160
Speaker 1: gimmeis here. You gotta go out there and you gotta

795
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 1: play football. So it's gonna be interesting to see, you know,

796
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 1: m Because San Francisco, of all the teams, they should

797
00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 1: be the first fan base to say we've been decimated

798
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,839
Speaker 1: with it. It hasn't been covid. I mean, you're gonna

799
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 1: have We knew that was gonna happen, but I'm talking

800
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 1: guys gone for the year. I mean, they're playing with

801
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 1: their second or third string quarterback. So give Kyle Shanahan

802
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: credit that they're not They're not mailing it in, they're

803
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 1: not worried about a draft pick. They're gonna try to

804
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 1: finish strong. And it's not the NFC East where you're

805
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,839
Speaker 1: still gonna have to win games, But Cardinal's got five

806
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 1: games left here. Um, you know, let's just worry about

807
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 1: this week right here, because we know the Rams have

808
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,239
Speaker 1: had the advantage under Sean McVay, which we get into.

809
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 1: But I'm just I'm just at one week at a

810
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 1: time right now, because you start looking ahead and it

811
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,600
Speaker 1: doesn't do anybody any good. Fans, you can do it

812
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 1: all you want, I get it, But when you write

813
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,960
Speaker 1: that w or L, we have no idea what's going

814
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 1: to transpire because we've seen flashes of this team. Now

815
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,560
Speaker 1: we need to see more consistency if they are a

816
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 1: playoff team. Now you know, are they a playoff team? Well,

817
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna find out. Yeah. I think that word consistency

818
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:30,319
Speaker 1: is key because we've seen it, but just not enough

819
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 1: for the Cardinals to really gain some separation and be

820
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:37,759
Speaker 1: considered a playoff front runner, not just a playoff contender

821
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,480
Speaker 1: and thinking that they're in already and they're still kind

822
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:44,319
Speaker 1: of working their way towards that. But you brought up

823
00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:47,839
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers. They're basically relocating to the state

824
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 1: of Arizona here for the next couple of weeks. They

825
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,919
Speaker 1: will call State Farm Stadium home for games next week

826
00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:56,960
Speaker 1: and the week after that week's thirteen and fourteen. There

827
00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:59,759
Speaker 1: are no conflicts with the Cardinals. In fact, forty nine

828
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,800
Speaker 1: Ers the Bills on Monday Night Football on December seventh.

829
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 1: Cardinals will host the Rams the day before that's next week,

830
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,359
Speaker 1: and then on December thirteenth, the forty nine ers host

831
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 1: Washington while the Cardinals are at the Giants. It just

832
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 1: so happens that the Bills in Washington have already been

833
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 1: here at the State Farm Stadium, so they'll be a

834
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: little bit more familiar with the building than perhaps the

835
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 1: forty nine ers will be. What do you what do

836
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,279
Speaker 1: you think about the Bills going, we gotta go back

837
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,520
Speaker 1: there now? At least they've won game since then. It's

838
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:32,399
Speaker 1: not like they're you know, that was their achilles heel.

839
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 1: Now do the forty nine ers you know the game

840
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:37,720
Speaker 1: ops and all that. I don't know all the particulars. Darrenhasy, Cardinals.

841
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 1: Goot dot com has some more information on all of

842
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: this moving. But you know, if you're the forty nine

843
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 1: ers game ops, do you do you play the Hell

844
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,880
Speaker 1: Murray on one of the big screens before kickoff of

845
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 1: that game? Or is that just too cruel? That's probably

846
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 1: too cruel. I don't know. I think you lead out

847
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:56,200
Speaker 1: to your social guys. I mean, you better win then

848
00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:58,400
Speaker 1: if you're gonna do that. And Buffalo's uh, you know

849
00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:00,360
Speaker 1: they're gonna win that division. It looks like, you know,

850
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:04,280
Speaker 1: Miami going back to Fitzpatrick, they're still in it. Obviously,

851
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,719
Speaker 1: Nelians have got to win more games, and you know

852
00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 1: they're not gonna win with that offense. I don't think.

853
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:15,440
Speaker 1: But again yesterday that that was just disappointing, Craig. Then again,

854
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:19,840
Speaker 1: we talk about these Mondays and nothing's given though. You

855
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 1: gotta earn it, and the Cardinals need to figure out

856
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 1: how they can get back to earning what they and

857
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 1: what we all anticipated here to happen in twenty twenty.

858
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,440
Speaker 1: So we'll be with you, bird gang, and we certainly

859
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:35,279
Speaker 1: understand the frustration and feel it right along with you

860
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 1: here as we now work our way towards Week thirteen.

861
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 1: And yes, we'll touch on tomorrow's show a little bit

862
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 1: about the division and the NFC. But as as as

863
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 1: MJU said, it's it's not about looking ahead, it's trying

864
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 1: to figure outlets. It's cliche, but it's it's today, it's

865
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 1: the next day. One day at a time, because this

866
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:59,400
Speaker 1: team can't afford to get ahead of themselves. Well, I mean,

867
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:03,440
Speaker 1: if we're going to play you know, sound bites out here,

868
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:08,480
Speaker 1: key up, Jim Moore playoffs where you trying to win

869
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:12,319
Speaker 1: a game. That was a high pitch there, NJ. I don't.

870
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:14,839
Speaker 1: I don't know if I know, but I don't want

871
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 1: to do the whole thing. I didn't want to do

872
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 1: the whole thing. But yeah, I think he used different

873
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,960
Speaker 1: language maybe, but I don't know if it was swearing.

874
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 1: But like I said last night, just win a game.

875
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:28,439
Speaker 1: I mean, playoffs are going to be there. It's about

876
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,480
Speaker 1: winning the next game. That's the focus. I don't don't

877
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:34,320
Speaker 1: worry about two weeks from now, don't worry about the Eagles.

878
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:39,600
Speaker 1: Just the next game on your schedule. Again, we talked

879
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:42,440
Speaker 1: about the Rams. I mean, they're they're playing for something.

880
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,160
Speaker 1: Week thirteen should be very interesting when the Rams come

881
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:49,319
Speaker 1: to town, the first of two meetings between the two

882
00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:53,920
Speaker 1: NFC West teams to close out the twenty twenty regular season.

883
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:56,439
Speaker 1: All Right, my homework is I will have that cut

884
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:58,560
Speaker 1: on my phone so I won't have to, you know,

885
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 1: you know, lead anybody's Ears playoffs. Yeah, Mike, Drecki is

886
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 1: going to work on his Jim Mora impersonation for Tuesday's show.

887
00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:10,560
Speaker 1: And on that note, let's put a lid on this

888
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:14,160
