1 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: Welcome berg Gang. On today's show, it's business as usual. 2 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: According to Cliff Kingsbury, it was not the perfect bye week, 3 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:16,639 Speaker 1: but the team did return to the practice field on Monday. 4 00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,480 Speaker 1: The goal is a simple one. Keep the train on 5 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,599 Speaker 1: the track, so to speak. Focus on this week's opponent, 6 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,239 Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins. We've got some good news on the 7 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: health front, plus a look at where things stand through 8 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,639 Speaker 1: eight weeks in the NFC West. It's Cardinals Cover two, 9 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: Episode three forty three, and it starts now. Welcome to 10 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 1: Cardinals Cover two with Craig Grigolu and Mike Jarecki. Cardinals 11 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 1: Cover two is presented by Hyunday, proud partner of the 12 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals, and by Arizona Cardinals Podcasts. Visit asy Cardinals 13 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: dot com Slash podcasts. Murray rolls to the right, throws 14 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: near sight of Fritz barb Head. He's into the nside 15 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: for the touchdown. Here's Craig Grielou and Mike Jarecki. So 16 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: an interesting last twenty four hours. MJ, to say the least, 17 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: for the arrows on the Cardinals. I was all prepared 18 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: to sit here and talk about where the Cardinals stand 19 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: within the NFC West Division after being able to sit 20 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,040 Speaker 1: back and watch the other three teams play on Sunday. 21 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a moment, but we do 22 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: not want to bury the lead, so to speak. And 23 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: because of reports on Sunday that have the players or 24 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: two players testing positive for COVID nineteen, had coach Cliff 25 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: Kingsbury confirmed that this morning and then this afternoon, the 26 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: Cardinals made an official linebacker Devon Kanard and cornerback Byron 27 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: Murphy placed on the reserve COVID nineteen list. And that 28 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: is certainly unfortunate for both of those players, MJ. Because one, 29 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: you're talking about two defensive daughters and two two players 30 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: that had key roles and had been playing very very well, 31 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: especially Murphy from week one all the way to week seven. Yeah, 32 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: you know, you look at two starters, and you know, 33 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: Murphy kind of found his role at the slop position. 34 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: We know Cannard is missing games this year, but he's 35 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: a guy that can seal the edge. He's physical. I 36 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: thought he brought some grip to that defense. And you know, unfortunately, 37 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: and you know, Cliff has been ahead of the curve. 38 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: He's told us from day one, there's going to be 39 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: positive tests. It's just, you know, it's just you can 40 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 1: go to the barbershop, you can go anywhere. Um if 41 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: obviously you have any close contact or something. One's not 42 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: wearing a mask. And we know the Cardinals when you're 43 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 1: in the facility in a way social distancing, no big crowds. 44 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: So you don't want to say it's a surprise because 45 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: they warned us. And we look across the league and 46 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: it's more, um, you know, for other teams, they haven't 47 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: been able to be at the facility. The Cardinals obviously, 48 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: according to reports on Sunday, they cleanse the entire facility 49 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: in the building, so um, you know, certain employees were 50 00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: back in the building today, but not a lot. So 51 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,799 Speaker 1: it's unfortunate. But the good news is they'll be back 52 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: at some point, but they definitely are going to miss 53 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: the upcoming game. Kennard took to social media and tweeted 54 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: the following quote. I learned that, like many others, I 55 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: have tested positive for COVID nineteen. Thankfully, I feel completely 56 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 1: normal so far. Please keep my family an eye in 57 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: your prayers as we navigate this. I look forward to 58 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,119 Speaker 1: being back on the field with my teammates. As soon 59 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 1: as I am cleared and safe to do so. End quote. 60 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: And you reference Kingsbury and he said it from the 61 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: start quote. I talked about it since July or training camp. 62 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: It wasn't a matter of if, it was a matter 63 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: of when this would occur. The teams that handle it 64 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: the best, those teams are going to be at the 65 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: top of this deal. End quote. And you hate to 66 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: say it, next man up mentality. You have to treat 67 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: this like an injury, however long it's going to last. 68 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: And right now that Marcus Golden trade looks very, very good, 69 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: not only because the injury and the Chandler Jones, but 70 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: now with are out for however long and Marcus Golden 71 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: on the practice field wearing number of forty four this 72 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: afternoon for the Arizona Cardinal. So good to see the 73 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: junkyard dog back wearing the Cardinals read and now looking 74 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: forward to see him on the field and certainly playing 75 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: a huge role beginning this week against the Miami Dolphins. Yeah, 76 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I gotta think, you know, based on Canards 77 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: on availability, I gotta think Marcus Golden. He was with 78 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: the New York Giants in training camp. He played in 79 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: the first four or five games. You know, last year 80 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: he had ten sacks a second and a half on 81 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: that Thursday night. Next day he was traded, so he's 82 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: you know, he's played in the three four. Obviously there's 83 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: different termin allogy sometimes some different vocabulary, but the fact 84 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: is he's a plug and play guy from day one. 85 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 1: It was nice to see him back on the field today. 86 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: He looked like he never left, to be honest, even 87 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: though he was wearing blue there for a while. It 88 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: looks good in that cardinal red and I'm glad that 89 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: number was available. And then Josh Morrow, another guy that 90 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: the Cardinals brought in, brought back. He's a bounced around 91 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: a little bit and he was he was actually doing 92 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: drills with a defensive lineman. He was number sixty nine. 93 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: So morel is a guy that obviously is going to 94 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: be part of the rotation. We know they've been hit 95 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 1: a little bit there with with Zach Allen. I think 96 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 1: Michael Dogbee may get an opportunity. Obviously got Blackson, you 97 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: got peters Um. Jordan Phillips wasn't in practicing today, but 98 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: he was out there, you know, with his teammates, so 99 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: you know it is next man up. But I do 100 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: think at some position it's going to be happy to 101 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: be by committee. And I think we're going to see 102 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: that based on what Advance was able to do in 103 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: sub packages last week. And you know, unfortunately, and I'm 104 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: glad he told us. You know, they had a lot 105 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: of third down packages for guys like Isaiah Simmons where 106 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: they were going six defensive backs. Unfortunately, you know, Seattle 107 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: was capitalizing on first and second down. So I think 108 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: it's going to be happy to be by committee, but 109 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: you're going to expect, you know, more out of a 110 00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 1: sound Reddick and obviously Marcus Golden. And I think that's 111 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: the philosophy that this defense has taken since Chandler Jones 112 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: went down, a collective effort to try to get to 113 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: the quarterback as much as possible. Maybe not so much 114 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: in the terms of number of sacks, but just getting 115 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: that quarterback uncomfortable and the pocket the other next man up, 116 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: if you will, potentially with Murphy now on the sidelines 117 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: and another new face that this team added, quarterback Davante 118 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 1: Bosby six two, one hundred and ninety pounds, was previously 119 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: with the Broncos played in four games, but he who 120 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: had been released and available, and now you're looking at 121 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: someone who's got good size. Now it's he's just got 122 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: here and how quickly can he pick things up? But 123 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: he becomes the fifth cornerback on the active roster with 124 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: Murphy now on the reserve COVID nineteen list. And don't 125 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: forget you still have Prince Amukamara on the practice squad. Yeah. 126 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: I did get a chance to see Bosby today. He 127 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: wearing number twenty five. You're ready. He's got good size. 128 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: And then Prince was out there on the practice squad 129 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: and we know the team is made roster moose whether 130 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 1: it's Friday or Saturday, injunction to who's going to be 131 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 1: inactive on game day. They told us last week that 132 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: Prince is getting closer, and again he was. He was 133 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: in camp with the Raiders on the street for a while, 134 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: so you got to get into football shape and he's 135 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: bounced around, so you would think he'd pick up the defense. 136 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: So they've added some depth back there. You know. Jalen 137 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: Thompson is another guy that was on the practice field 138 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: during the open portion. You know he's he's a guy 139 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: that's you know, been on the ir for return. I 140 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: want to say, this is his third week. So if 141 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: you can get those guys back and then all of 142 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: a sudden Banjo and Kevin Peterson and Charles Washington and 143 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: possibly when Murphy returns on both, Bosby becomes your depth guy. 144 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: So again, I still think that secondary could be the 145 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: strength because they're mixing the matching a little bit more 146 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: upfront than they were a couple of weeks ago when 147 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: they had to play Curtis Riley and Dean Take Thompson. 148 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: This is Bosby's fourth season. Previous stops Chiefs, Bears, and Eagles. 149 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: He won a title, the Super Bowl Title with Philadelphia 150 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: when he was on the practice squad a former undrafted 151 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: rookie free agent at of Pittsburgh State in twenty fifteen. Interesting, 152 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: he had landed with the Broncos when the Alliance of 153 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: American Football suspended operations, and I read this note in 154 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: Darren Urban's article on asy Cardinals dot Com. In the 155 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: AAF he actually picked off current Cardinals coaching assistant Mike Bercovici. 156 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: So already maybe one familiar face that he's aware of, 157 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: although the opposite sideline with respect to Bosby. But we'll 158 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: have to wait and see as we get closer and 159 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: closer to this matchup against the Dolphins. It's certainly going 160 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: to look different. But how about some good news here, 161 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: m J. You brought up Jalen Thompson maybe getting closer, 162 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: and Kingsbury brought that up as well, saying that he's 163 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: day to day. Max Williams, the tight end who we've 164 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: talked a lot about here on rot exactly, he is 165 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: certainly getting closer and was officially designated to return off 166 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 1: injured reserve list today so he can begin practicing, and 167 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,559 Speaker 1: certainly the Cardinals have missed him. But then Kenyan Drake 168 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: officially listed day in a day. Here's Kingsbury's quote about 169 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: the Cardinals running back. It looked more severe than probably 170 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: what it's going to end up being. Hopefully he's really 171 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: made good progress, but I'm not sure it will be 172 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: enough to get him back this week end. Quote. So 173 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: we noted last week that he was not placed on 174 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 1: injured reserve short term injured reserve meeting, you had to 175 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: miss at least three weeks. So if he sidelined this week, 176 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds gets to start and you go running back 177 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: by a committee. Perhaps this is an injury in which 178 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: Drake can overcome. Maybe next week against Buffalo or at Seattle. Well, 179 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: great news. I mean you can tell he was in pain, 180 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: he was emotional, he was put on the cart and 181 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: sometimes you know, as a player, you feel something and 182 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: obviously you got to wait for the MRI. But it 183 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: looked a lot worse when it happened. I just think 184 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: he was any player we concerned, it is this, Am 185 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: I going to miss the rest of the season. A 186 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 1: lot of there's probably fifty things that go through your mind. 187 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 1: Could I have taken a different cut? Obviously, it's football, 188 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: so it's going to happen. But that is really good news. 189 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: Whether he misses, you know, a game or two. We 190 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 1: got to look at the big picture. We know these 191 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: couple games coming up our AFC opponents, they still count 192 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: the win loss column. But when he starts getting into 193 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 1: these division games on a short week, he hopefully in 194 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: medical they won't clear him until he's ready. So that 195 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: opened zero for Chase Edmonds. And then you look at 196 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,599 Speaker 1: a guy like um, you know Jonathan Ward, who I 197 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: think's got a more skill set like Kenyan Drake. He 198 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,319 Speaker 1: does his dress on game day. I think Foster is 199 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: a guy that you know, if he's on the active roster, 200 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: maybe more of a special teams guy, and then I 201 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: think a lot of Cardinal fans, and rightfully so, probably 202 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: more Sundale fans, they want to know Eno Benjamin, and 203 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: I think he's going to get a chance. You know, again, 204 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 1: he didn't win the kick returner job. You and I 205 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: looked it up last week. If they're going to take 206 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,199 Speaker 1: Chase off special teams, that would be Isabella back there 207 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: and Christian Kirk is the punt returner, So you know, 208 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: I think Benjamin is still trying to find his niche. 209 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: I think he's got a skill set more like Chase. 210 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: So we'll see if they dress all four running backs. 211 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 1: But I do think Eno Benjamin, he's been inactive pretty 212 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: much all season. He has cares to see if they 213 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: could find a role for him, and he could be 214 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: one of those guys that you know, I do agree 215 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: with you. I think it's going to be more Chase 216 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: Chase Chase and then, as you pointed out last week, 217 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: incorrectly ride the hot hand. But you also want to 218 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: have a change of pace back and I think war 219 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: Or Benjamin can kind of fill that role. Obviously, ball 220 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: security is a big issue when you're a young player 221 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: in the NFL, and that's just kind of what we've 222 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: seen out of Kingsbury so far in his short tenure 223 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 1: on the n FELL level. And I know, even going 224 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: back to Texas Tech, it's been one running back and 225 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: then if that back needs a breather or you're looking, 226 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: as you said, a change of pace, then that's when 227 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: that second or third running back sees some time. Be 228 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: interesting though, with respect to Drake and Edmonds, you saw 229 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: a lot of them on the field at the same time, 230 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: whether one in the backfield or two in the backfield, 231 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: the other one split as a wide receiver. I don't 232 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: know what that might look like. That's one dynamic of 233 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: this offense that I don't know how much we'll see 234 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: because Drake and Edmonds were so good with that combination together. Yeah, 235 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: and if you're on the field, you know they're not 236 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: going to change your offense because you know you've got 237 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: a seventh round picking. There is pass protection. I mean, 238 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 1: you're the safety net. You're the safety net. It's a 239 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: quarterback and now you know Kyler gets out a lot 240 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 1: of traffic. But think Foster just being the league a 241 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: little bit longer, more seasoned, even though he hasn't been 242 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: able to see healthy throughout his square. I think he's 243 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: better in pass protection, but you know, I think past 244 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 1: protection and you know, it's kind of like tackling. It's 245 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: a want too. Yeah you're not You're the small You're 246 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: smaller than the guy you're gonna hit. But your job 247 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 1: is to chip him and try to slow him down 248 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: so he doesn't hit the quarterback. So you know, those 249 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: who all play factors, and I'm sure Sean Coogler and 250 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: James Saxon and tight ends coach Steve Widener are going 251 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: to have some say on certain packages for certain players 252 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: and along those lines. You know, it's just, you know, 253 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: I just think, you know, this is a great opportunity 254 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: for Chase. I think a lot of people are in 255 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 1: treatued can he be the featured back? And I think 256 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: he's going to showcase his skill set. You know, he's 257 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: only had like fifty five touches this year. I mean, 258 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: this guy needs more touches. I think we've been I've 259 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: been banging that drum. Everyone has just based on we 260 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: see now, you know, kind of the old Augie Ojeita. 261 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: You play him over a period of time and sometimes 262 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: they get exposed and that's why they're role players. But 263 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: I don't see that with Chase. I really feel the 264 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: organization Craig moving forward thinks he could be the featured back. Well, 265 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: we've heard Kingsbury mentioned that a couple of different times 266 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: that they see Edmonds as a star or in this league. 267 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: It's just right now he's up against Kenyan Drake. But 268 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: Edmonds this season twenty nine carries for one hundred and 269 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 1: seventy six yards. Bird Gang all do the math. That's 270 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: better than six yards every time he touches the football. 271 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: And he is a little bit different looking running back 272 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: than a Kenyan Drake. Yeah, and once again I got 273 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: to include Kyler Murray in the rushing I mean, I 274 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: know the running back position. And the reason why I 275 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: say that is because when he averages seven eight nine 276 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: rushes a game, the team has a good record. He 277 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: averages you know, seven point four, he had ten rushes 278 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: for seventy four yards, and so you know Kyler is 279 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 1: going to take away some of those touches. And again 280 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: you just wondered where Jonathan Ward, DJ Foster and you 281 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: know Benjamin But if you get to lead the fourth quarter, 282 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to try to run the football a 283 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: little bit too. But by the way, the Cardinals moved 284 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: to number two and rushing yards per carry in the 285 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: NFL without even planning a game. They moved up from 286 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: number three to number two at that five point two 287 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: yard average, which would be again for the second straight season. 288 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: Talking about a franchise best mark again, Gift Kim and 289 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 1: you know, Quentin Harris and Adrian Wilson and Drew Rickson 290 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: give him credit. But I'll say this though, Sean Cougler 291 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: for president now, he probably doesn't want to do that 292 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: role because there's a lot of things that come across 293 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: your desk. He's perfect for what he's doing right now. 294 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: But I mean, there's just it's night and day. I 295 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: mean nothing against Ray Brown and some of the and 296 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 1: I've already made the claim. And I like George Warhop, 297 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: I liked Russ Graham, Our Scrimms a hog. He was 298 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: in the Hall of Fame. But when it comes to 299 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: technique and just getting these guys to play as a unit, 300 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: there's nothing like Sean Coogler, and I think we're seeing it. 301 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: And you know, obviously Kyler tips the numbers, but he's 302 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: part of what they do in the running game Bird Gang. 303 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: Make sure you update to the lamb's versions of the 304 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: Cardinals Mobile lapp today. The update features and all new 305 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: redesign homescreen experience because at as Cardinals dot Com or more. 306 00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: As we continue on this Monday edition, Cardinals Covered Too, 307 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: presented by Hunday, proud partner of the Arizona Cardinals after 308 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: a buy weekend, do need to make mention here MJ 309 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: that this week and then next week Dolphins and Bills too. 310 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: AFC East opponents, but more fans in the stands. The 311 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: Arizona Department of Health Services as allowing for forty two 312 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: hundred fans at State Farm Stadium, So again this will 313 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: be much like what we saw with the Seattle Seahawks 314 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: exclusively for season ticket holders based on seniority and those 315 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: who did not, let me say that again, those who 316 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: did not purchase tickets for the Seahawks game. So if 317 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: you're at the Seahawks game, you won't be at the 318 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: Dolphins or as Bills games unless your name comes back 319 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 1: into rotation based off everyone ahead of you either purchasing 320 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: tickets or saying no, not this time, and then maybe 321 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: we see a second game for those fans. Yeah, and 322 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: when the Cardinals had you know, basically coaches and family 323 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: and friends, there were seven hundred and fifty people there 324 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: are all on one side. The last game when they 325 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: had twelve hundred, they used both sides. And I noticed, Craig, really, 326 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: you're from the twenty to the twenty and because they 327 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 1: have signage in the end zones, and obviously you want 328 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 1: people to be able to sit in those seats where 329 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: the concessions are right there. I'm sure anything you have 330 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: you could find the concessions in the restaurants. But and 331 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,479 Speaker 1: then you know, they zip tie the seats so you 332 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: can't push a seat down. And we were there towards 333 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 1: the end of training camp and they had us sitting 334 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: in the stands. I had a great seat at the 335 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: fifty yard line. Obviously on the twenty yard line, hopefully 336 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: you get some action on your end. But so it 337 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: looks like they'll they'll put you know, two thousand on 338 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: one side, two thousand and fifty on one side, and 339 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 1: two thousand at the end of the other side. But again, 340 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: depending on if you've been quarantined with X amount of 341 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: people in your family, maybe you get four in a row. 342 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: But for the most part though, they spread you out 343 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 1: and there's zip ties on the seat where you cannot 344 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 1: push the seat down. And that's at all NFL stadiums 345 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 1: that obviously are going through you know, fans, and forty 346 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: two hundred doesn't sound like a lot when you think 347 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: about that building that can see you know, seventy seventy 348 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: five thousand. But the players made mention it a bit 349 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: after the Seahawks game. You can hear it's noticeable, especially 350 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: that game, the excitement and then of course the home 351 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: team coming away with the win. But every little bit 352 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: helps because this is something that have said publicly, you know, 353 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: no big deal training camp week one, and then afterwards like, yeah, 354 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 1: it's really odd, it's really different, and players feed off 355 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,199 Speaker 1: that energy from the fans and the stands. Yeah, it 356 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: only can help, especially the next two games. Now, you know, 357 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: I don't know how many people circle to the Dolphins. 358 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: They want to go to that game because we didn't 359 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: know Tua. Now you probably thought at some point he's 360 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: gonna play, but they were a five hundred team and 361 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,239 Speaker 1: they benched him. And we'll get into the Dolphins well 362 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: the course of the week. But you know, the Bills, 363 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: and for me being from Western New York, there's a 364 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 1: ton of transplants out here, so I'm wondering what that 365 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 1: Bills versus Dolphins game will look like. And again, Cardinal fans, 366 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 1: you had the right, but obviously the more Cardinal fans, 367 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: the better it will be. Because the Cardinals have done 368 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: a really good job protecting in s now. They got 369 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 1: to win more home games, as we pointed out over 370 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: the last couple of years, but they do get a 371 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 1: charge from the fans, especially when a big plays made, 372 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: whether it's a defensive sack, a Larie Fitzgerald catch, So 373 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: it can help this team on the field. In recent years, 374 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: you see a Dolphins or Bills game on the schedule 375 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: and you're like, okay, whatever, not that big a deal. 376 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,159 Speaker 1: It's the AFC S, it's the New England Patriots, and 377 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,679 Speaker 1: everyone else falls in line. This is different, though, and 378 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 1: I think this will help the fact that the Dolphins won. 379 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: They're above five hundred, they're fighting for a playoff spot. 380 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: The Bills are better, they want a playoff spot, they 381 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 1: want to win the division, and it's all about being 382 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: better after the bye last year. Let's not forget it 383 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,239 Speaker 1: was a later by. It was in November and the 384 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: Cardinals came matter that bye weekend Jay losing to the 385 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: Rams thirty four to seven, Jared Goff four hundred and 386 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: five passing yards at the eight forty four mark of 387 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: the third quarter. Kingsbury was asked about it last week 388 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: again today. Kyler Murray asked about it last week. Corey 389 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 1: Peters Kelvin Beecham asked about it today. In the midst 390 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 1: of everything that is going on COVID nineteen and then 391 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: trying to maintain this three game winning streak, this team 392 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: cannot lay an egg coming at the bye like it 393 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: did a year ago. Yeah, and you know, after the 394 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 1: Lions game, we thought they'd be ready to play in Carolina. Again, 395 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,199 Speaker 1: there's always one dud. Hopefully that's the one, because you 396 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: can't go back and change the score. Carolina is going 397 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: in a different directions. So when it comes to conference 398 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:50,399 Speaker 1: wins and tiebreakers, Cardinals will be above them. You know. 399 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: I'll say this, and obviously we'll get into the Dolphins 400 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: and Bills, you know, accordingly, but you're gonna face two 401 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: really good defenses, and I don't when I don't think 402 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: Dolphins team on Sunday, I don't know how many players 403 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 1: they have over thirty years old, and they got multiple 404 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,719 Speaker 1: draft picks. And you know, I told you in the 405 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: past when Adrian Wilson got a chance to play for 406 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:15,680 Speaker 1: Bryan Flores in New England, and I said, man, he's 407 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,479 Speaker 1: taken a tough job. He said, this guy's not tanking. 408 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 1: And the players love playing for him, and they're fast 409 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: on defense, they're physical and so and then the Bills, 410 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: I think because of Sean McDermott. Yes, Josh Allen and 411 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 1: the white Outs have done a good job, but Sean 412 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: McDermott's he cut his teeth. You know, in Philadelphia when 413 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 1: Jim Johnson was there is probably a position coach, and 414 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: then obviously it was with Rivera down there in Carolina. 415 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:48,160 Speaker 1: So they're gonna face really two good defenses. And maybe 416 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: that's more in the AFC, because sometimes you do have 417 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 1: to play the Steelers and the Ravens in the Chiefs 418 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: where you got to slow these offenses down. So they're 419 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 1: gonna face some really fast defenses in the next couple 420 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: of weeks. And I don't think it was the case 421 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: against the Jets defense, the Cowboys defense, and we know 422 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: the Seahawks defense one year ago today the Dolphins were 423 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 1: oh and seven. Now they're four and three. You talk 424 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: about a turnaround that certainly should have the attention of 425 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: every coach and player in that Cardinal's locker room, because 426 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: what you don't want to have happened here is to 427 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: lose the momentum if you buy into that, or just 428 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 1: the good feeling that this team has and had going 429 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: through the bye week. You don't want to come out 430 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 1: this Sunday and all of a sudden have that go away. 431 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: It's what well Larry Fitzgerald said during Cardinal's Flight Plan, 432 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,360 Speaker 1: which drops over the weekend episode six titled raising the 433 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: Bar quote, it means nothing. If we don't continue to 434 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: get better and improve and work at our craft weekend 435 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: and week out, we have a long way to God. Quote. Now, 436 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: to a certain extent, MJ. You wouldn't expect fits to 437 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: say anything less regardless of the circumstance. But he knows 438 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 1: every game is important. That's why the two games that 439 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 1: we always talk about, Lions and Panthers, stick out like 440 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: a sore thumb. You can't discount what is in front 441 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: of you because of the mistakes that perhaps we made 442 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: behind you and at this point in the season, I've 443 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: watched enough football this year. In twenty twenty, there is 444 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: no gimme. I'm sorry, there is no gimme. There is 445 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: Oh just mark it down any given Sunday. It's cliche, 446 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: but no more so than here this year. Yeah, I mean, 447 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: you know, some teams don't have as much talent, but 448 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 1: they play with a lot of heart and grit, and 449 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 1: you know they may not look, you know, at the 450 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: scoreboards throughout the game, or they're gonna play art. And 451 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: you know, when I look at this, it's you know, 452 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 1: the Cardinals offense is going to have to continue what 453 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: they're doing and add to it. And you know, we 454 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 1: were talking about earlier about you know, in the past 455 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: they've used two running backs in the game together. I 456 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 1: think we're going to see when now Max Williams has 457 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: the eligibility to come off the return list within the 458 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,239 Speaker 1: next three weeks. I asked Kingsbury, it's morn about him 459 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 1: and Jayleen Thompson. He said, they're getting closer. So I 460 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: don't know if they're going to play right away here, 461 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: but maybe we can see guys like you know, Darrell Daniels. 462 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 1: Obviously he's got to cut down on the metal areas 463 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: of Julius Thomas to where they use him is an 464 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 1: h back in the backfield or bring in Josh Jones 465 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: as an extra blocker, and they've done that over the 466 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, just because you know, Dan Arnold's 467 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: not the you know, the biggest guy, even though he's 468 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: getting better and he's more of a matchup, and he's 469 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: off to a really slow start, So you'd like to 470 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,679 Speaker 1: get some production from the tight ends. But I understand 471 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,160 Speaker 1: when you're Kyler Murray and you have all those weapons, 472 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 1: that's probably I wouldn't say it's the last place you look, 473 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 1: but I got all our options and guys and get 474 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,239 Speaker 1: yards after catch. But it wouldn't surprise me if they 475 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 1: use some of those those tight ends. And we know 476 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: Cliffs not afraid to go two tight ends, two wide 477 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 1: and one back, specially on short yardage, especially in the 478 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: red zones, especially on the fourth downs that he's willing 479 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 1: to go for. And Craig, I look at this team, 480 00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 1: and I think Kingsbury hit it on last week. What's 481 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: see identity of this football team? And I think there's 482 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: three teams he mentioned play fast, physical, and we're going 483 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: to be aggressive. So after seven games, that's who they are. 484 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: And I'm not just talking about the offense. I'm talking 485 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 1: about the total team. Play fast, and they do that 486 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: on offense, and if the defense can get three and ounce, 487 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: they're playing fast because now they're not in the field. 488 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: And then obviously when it comes to physicality, we've seen 489 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: a physicality from this team, especially at front side, even 490 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,360 Speaker 1: the offensive line, winning one on one matchups. And then 491 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: he's going to be aggressive. So that's the identity of 492 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: this football team going into the last nine games, and 493 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: aggressive defensively as well, especially the last two games in 494 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 1: prime time because yes, because the no Chandler Jones Vans 495 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 1: Joseph has decided to dial it up. So yes, these 496 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: coaches kind of mirror each other when it comes to 497 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: the offense and defense respectively.

It was 501 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 1: a look through the first seven games with exclusive conversations 502 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: from Michael Bidwell, Steve Kime, Cliff Kingsbury, Larry Fitzgerald, and 503 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. And there was a lot that stood out. 504 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: I referenced Fitz's quote on that they've accomplished nothing, which 505 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: is the right mindset. But what Kimes said the starts 506 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: of that episode quote winning that game, referring to the 507 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: Seahawks game has made the next one even bigger, and 508 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 1: he's talking about the Dolphins. It's the most important game 509 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 1: on the schedule. You've said it, and I kind of like, oh, yeah, whatever, 510 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: you know, it's you can't compare this game versus a 511 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: primetime matchup against the Seahawks, but you can when you're 512 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: five and two and you have a destination in mind postseason, 513 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: win the division, go to the conference championship game, get 514 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: to the super Bowl, something Kyler Murray mentioned in Cardinals 515 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 1: Fly Plan. The most important game is the next game. 516 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,679 Speaker 1: I mean, I've enjoyed the season. It's been a lot 517 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: of fun. Now obviously winning, you know, helps that if 518 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: we're two and five or Cardinals are two and five, 519 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 1: or okay, do you want to see the young guys. 520 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 1: We're not getting into that conversation, so but I think, whatever, 521 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: if they can continue to win and you're not going 522 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 1: to win every game, but have more wins than losses 523 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 1: and that means maybe nine or ten depending on where 524 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: you are in November December. But every game you win, 525 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,479 Speaker 1: the next game gets bigger because you're playing for more. 526 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: So again, just you know, one game at a time. 527 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 1: I know it sounds like a cliche fans. You can 528 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,239 Speaker 1: go ahead and look ahead and projective team to win 529 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: X amount of games, But every time you win, that 530 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: next game becomes bigger because you just don't want to lose. 531 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 1: First of all, I don't want to lose. You don't 532 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 1: want to lose it at all. If you don't want 533 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: to lose at home to an AFC team that you 534 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: feel like you've got a better roster. But those teams 535 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,479 Speaker 1: are on the rise. Buffalo has been on the rise 536 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: for a couple of years and this could be the 537 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: first time since nineteen ninety five that they take over 538 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: the the AFC East, and I think Miami could be 539 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: looking at second place there. So they're playing for something. 540 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 1: And that's the message that Kingsbury delivered before the bye week. 541 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:13,199 Speaker 1: He delivered again today post bye week. And then you 542 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: hear Corey Peters or Kelvin Beacham talk about how different 543 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: this bye week was, and maybe it's easier to maintain 544 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: that level of focus and intensity and being quote locked 545 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: in because these players couldn't go anywhere, dude, the COVID 546 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: nineteen protocols, they were tested every single day. And then 547 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: seeing these players in the facility, Corey Peters brought that up, 548 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: he's never seen this many players in a facility during 549 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: the bye week, either working out, hanging out, or getting 550 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: in a workout. And yes, if you've got nowhere else 551 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: to go, you might as well get in some work 552 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: and not waste your time. But it was good to 553 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: hear Corey Peters bring that up that and I didn't 554 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: give a number, but to see a lot of his 555 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: teammates not just using these four days to kind of 556 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: get away mentally physically, but to actually do some work. 557 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: And I think that's the important part here. This team 558 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: understands where they are right now after seven games. It's 559 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: only halfway to where they eventually want to be at. Yeah, 560 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 1: and winning is contagious. I mean, if you go to 561 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: the facility to do your COVID tests and you walk in, 562 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 1: you can go to your locker, maybe you got lunch set. 563 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 1: You're gonna you know, have box lunch or something. But 564 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: once you're there. Hey, let's go watch from film. It's contagious. 565 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: And again, these guys trust each other. That's one thing 566 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: that it's clear to me. They trust each other's coaching 567 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 1: staff trust the players. The players trust the front office 568 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: and the coaching staff. So there's no hidden agenda here. 569 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: There's one goal in mine and that's to get to 570 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: the postseason. By the way, coincidence or just kind of 571 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: happened this way that since come went on Doug and 572 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,239 Speaker 1: Wolf on ninety eight seven FM Arizona Sports station and 573 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 1: called out his quote unquote five star players, the team 574 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 1: has not lost. They are on a three game winning streak. 575 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: Coincidence or time just picked a good time to maybe 576 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: move the needle, if you will. Well, the timing was 577 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: right because they are coming off back to back losses. 578 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: So in you know whether they're playing the Jets that 579 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: weekend or not. I mean yeah, I mean I listen. 580 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 1: I think the players know when they leave the stadium 581 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 1: how well they played and what the expectations are for 582 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 1: their position. But when you hear from your boss, and 583 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 1: maybe he's talking about other guys too, because when he's 584 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: made that comment, yes, their five star players started playing 585 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: like five star players, but we had other role players 586 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: step up. I mean the Dennis Gardex, Hassan Reddicks, you know, 587 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: Tanner Vallejo. You know, we had other guys step up. 588 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean I think as if you had 589 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 1: the true sermon with every player, how did you play today? Well? 590 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: I could have played better. Well, if you go around 591 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: the room, everyone says that that probably means you guys 592 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: didn't win that day. But if you go in there 593 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: and say I'm gonna I'm gonna correct these mistakes and 594 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: it won't happen again, that means you're building something for 595 00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks, in this case is for 596 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: the next nine weeks. On flight Plan, I mentioned having tough, 597 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: honest conversations and then added this quote. We have fifty 598 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: three guys in that locker room that I'm damn proud of, 599 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 1: and they want to be coached. They want to be 600 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:18,719 Speaker 1: challenged sometimes through criticism. We all excel at our positions. 601 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: End quote. And perhaps that is what's happened since that 602 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 1: loss at Carolina. You beat the Jets, you beat the Cowboys, 603 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: you beat the Seahawks, and this team has put themselves 604 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: in position that I think a lot of people expected, 605 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: but I don't know if maybe this close or this 606 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: soon end of the season, you're talking about a five 607 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: win team with wins over San Francisco and Seattle, yeah 608 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 1: and two and on the division. I mean, not a 609 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: lot of teams can say that we know that. Seahawks 610 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,959 Speaker 1: can't claim that. You know, we'll see what that they 611 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: finished three and three, four and two. And then you 612 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 1: get greedy because we know week sixteen and seventeen you're 613 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: playing against division opponents. And then after you know Minding 614 00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: and Buffalo, you get a short week against the Seahawks 615 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: on the road. So we're going to know more about 616 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: this team in the next couple of weeks and are 617 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: they ready to take that next step?

You brought up the NFC West. 625 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: MJ and I know typically we kind of do this 626 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: on Tuesdays. This Tuesday, however, something else is happening. November three, 627 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: It's election day. I encourage the Bird gang to go 628 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: out and vote. Whoever you vote for, just make sure 629 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 1: your voice is heard. So we are all taking Tuesday 630 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: to do that. We will rejoin you on Wednesday. Coaches, players, 631 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: the entire NFL, although the trade deadline is two pm 632 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: Arizona time on Tuesday, but all league offices, all team 633 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: facilities are closed for the day so everyone has the 634 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: opportunity to vote. But here are the current standings in 635 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: the NFC West. Seahawks six and one, the number one 636 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: steed Cardinals five and two, the five seed Rams five 637 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 1: and three, seven seed, and the forty nine Ers at 638 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: four and four the nine seed. Everyone ats or above 639 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 1: five hundred. Still, I think the best division in all 640 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: of football. MJ and I got to admit, but there 641 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: was a stretch there on Sunday afternoon that once the 642 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: Rams lost to the Dolphins, because I wasn't sure do 643 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 1: you root for the forty nine Ers or the Seahawks, 644 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 1: two division foes colliding? You know which way do you go? Well? 645 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: Once the Rams lost, I was like, oh wait a second, 646 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: started doing a little math in my head. If the 647 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: forty nine ers win, then that means the Seahawks would 648 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: be five and two. Cardinals are five and two, but 649 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: they beat the Seahawks head to head, we could be 650 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: talking about a first place team here on a Monday 651 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: as opposed to now being in second place. What was 652 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 1: my thought process and a little bit for a Sunday afternoon. Well, 653 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 1: I'll admit on Thursday night I was rooting for the Falcons, 654 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 1: and I have no rooting interest because I just want 655 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: to see Carolina get more losses because they would have 656 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: a tie breaker and you know, give them credit. They 657 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: got out to a good, you know, decent start, but 658 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 1: now they're coming back to earth. And then I was 659 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 1: rooting for the Dolphins. Just say for a month Sunday 660 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,720 Speaker 1: and yeah, I wanted the Seahawks to get a second loss. 661 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm score barer watching. You usually don't do 662 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 1: that until like December. I look at conference games. How 663 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 1: does this affect them in the race? And right now 664 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: they would be one of the wildcard teams. You know 665 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: what's interesting about that Dolphins game. First of all, there 666 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: was a whole lot of offensive game. Everyone all week said, man, 667 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 1: you're starting this guy against Aaron Donald and then he 668 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: gets Claubert. His numbers were pedestrian. Give him credit for 669 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,839 Speaker 1: his first win. But because of Brian Flores and they 670 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: had that game plan at the Super Bowl to shut 671 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,399 Speaker 1: the Rams down. They only score three points in that game. 672 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: Patriots got a late field goal. They won thirteen to three, 673 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: and it was a blueprint how they stopped Jerikoff and 674 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh. It's amazing matchups. And then obviously when you 675 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: work for Bill Belichick for all those years, so that 676 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: really stood out to me. But they didn't do a 677 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 1: whole lot offensively, but you got to give their special 678 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: teams a defense a lot of credit. And I was 679 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: mentioning earlier credit. They don't have a lot of guys 680 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 1: over thirty. And then you watch in that Seahawks game 681 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: and you know you're thinking, all right, obviously they're familiar 682 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 1: with each other, but you know, Jimmy Garoppolo, they're gonna 683 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: have to make a decision at the end of the year. 684 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 1: Nick Mullins came in and brought him back. In that game, 685 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 1: I don't want to, you know, throw dirt on anything here. 686 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 1: But I think there's a shift in the NFC West, 687 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,600 Speaker 1: just from a standpoint of San Francisco was thirteen and 688 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:52,760 Speaker 1: three last year. Okay, they already have four losses. They're 689 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: gonna lose Jimmy Garoppolo to a high ankle spring. Maybe 690 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,800 Speaker 1: Mullins is more mobile, they like him, and then George Kittle, 691 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 1: it's like he's gonna be out eight weeks. So I 692 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 1: don't think they're gonna make the postseason. So I think 693 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 1: we can kind of put an X mark on them now. 694 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 1: They could play spoiler role and then the Rams. I 695 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,879 Speaker 1: mean Jared Goff, I wish, I wish Vans Joseph had 696 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 1: that game plan, because you know, the Cardinals played the 697 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 1: Rams much better in the second second game than they 698 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:23,160 Speaker 1: the first. But I really think, you know, when you 699 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 1: look at the quarterback play, it's Russell Wilson and Kyler 700 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 1: Murray and then it's Jimmy Garoppolo and Golf, you can 701 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: make the case there. Obviously, all three head coaches in 702 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 1: the division besides Cliff has been to the Super Bowl 703 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 1: already McVeigh, Pete Carroll, and Kyle Shanahan. So they still 704 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 1: got to get make that progress, but this team, this 705 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 1: could come down to a two team rights I'm not 706 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 1: I'm not just crediting the Rams, but they need to 707 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: play Golf's got to have a really good day. He 708 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,400 Speaker 1: can't play like he had it on Sunday because then 709 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: they're vulnerable. But I want to give Brian Floores a 710 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,279 Speaker 1: lot of credit because he went back to that game 711 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 1: plan and they were able to shut them down. But 712 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: I do think Kyler Murray and Russell Wilson are the 713 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 1: best quarterbacks and I think those two teams could have 714 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 1: the best record when it's all sudden in the NFC West, 715 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:11,440 Speaker 1: Let's touch on the Rams for a moment. Twenty eight seventeen, 716 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: the final. They're five and three. They've lost two of three, 717 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: of the win sandwiched around a victory against the Bears 718 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 1: on Monday Night Football. You mentioned Jared Goff picked off twice, 719 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 1: strip sacked twice. But I think you have to start 720 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:30,240 Speaker 1: questioning the Rams. And it's a fair question, MJ. Who 721 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,720 Speaker 1: have they beaten? They went four no against the NFC 722 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:37,879 Speaker 1: East and their victory against the Bears their only win 723 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 1: against a team with a winning record. And I understand 724 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 1: that they've got Aaron Donald. But unless the defense is 725 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 1: scoring points, you're gonna need some help. Yeah, and they 726 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: also lost a Buffalo that they were getting blown out 727 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 1: and they made a come back and there's some questionable calls, 728 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: but they did lose to the Bills. So yeah, and 729 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 1: Bills are you know, they were a playoff team last 730 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,720 Speaker 1: year and they're a team that's it has five wins, 731 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: so yeah. I mean, but again, they don't make the 732 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 1: schedule of the play it And you know, I get it. 733 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,760 Speaker 1: I mean, you look at the Cardinals. You know what Detroit, 734 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 1: what their record was, the Jets, the dick Cowboys. I mean, 735 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: I get it. But every week it's a different challenge. 736 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 1: And you pointed out earlier, we've seen upsets. You don't 737 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 1: think a team is going to go there, and sometimes 738 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,440 Speaker 1: you know, they don't take them serious. And that's what 739 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,320 Speaker 1: was disappointing when I heard Kyler Murray say they stepped 740 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: on the field against the Panthers and they thought they 741 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: were just gonna win. You can't do that in the NFL. 742 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,919 Speaker 1: And that was a learning experience to where I don't 743 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 1: see that will happen the rest of the season for 744 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. So the Rams with some good news. They 745 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: don't play this week, so they are enjoying their bye week. 746 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 1: The forty nine Ers at four and four, losing to 747 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: the Seahawks thirty seven twenty seven, ending a two game 748 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,359 Speaker 1: winning streak. It's a short week for the forty nine ers. 749 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: They will host the Packers on Thursday Night Football. And 750 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 1: you bring up not only Jimmy Garoppolo with a high 751 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: ankle sprain, tied end, George Kittle with a small fracture 752 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 1: and his foot. This might finally put the nail, if 753 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 1: you will, in the coffin for the forty nine ers, 754 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: and know many people are writing them off earlier in 755 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 1: the season, then they started winning. Four and four is 756 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: still a great mark. Harder to do anything when you're 757 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: up against everyone else within the division. But these injuries. 758 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman reaggravated his knee injury he had just returned 759 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: from ir They get healthy and immediately it's either the 760 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 1: same player goes down or the backup that had replaced 761 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: the injured player gets hurt themselves. So it's it's a 762 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 1: lot to ask of any team when you have all 763 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 1: these injuries, especially the key positions a quarterback, and then 764 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,880 Speaker 1: of course your best offensive weapon in George Kittle well, 765 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,399 Speaker 1: and he can make the case they lost their best 766 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 1: pass rush in Bosa, lost Solomon Thomas. I mean, you 767 00:39:56,280 --> 00:40:00,399 Speaker 1: can only take so many hits. But I mean it's 768 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:04,400 Speaker 1: it's we always say the teams that are the healthiest 769 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:06,320 Speaker 1: towards the end of the season, you gotta be lucky. 770 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 1: You don't know what's gonna happen. Although I always say 771 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: you can take the player off the field, but yeah, 772 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 1: I mean, and now they're going to make a decision 773 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: in the offseason what do they do at the quarterback position, 774 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:20,320 Speaker 1: because I mean they actually did flirt with Tom Brady. Obviously, 775 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: that was news in February and March when we were 776 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: at the combine. I didn't buy into it, but you know, 777 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,319 Speaker 1: Garoppolo played well for three and a half quarters and 778 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 1: then figure and then Guy win the big game or so. 779 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what it was, but yeah, it's just 780 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 1: you hate to see injuries, and we Cardinals have had 781 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: them over the years. I mean, we talk about you 782 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: losing Chandler Jones. I don't and nobody's crying for us 783 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 1: there because you know, you still got It's not like 784 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: you're going on the field with ten players. Now, I 785 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:51,960 Speaker 1: will say this crect Cardinals had it. Obviously, the corners, 786 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,880 Speaker 1: they've had it outside Patch Rushers d line. But that 787 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 1: Seattle game, and I know I'm getting ahead of myself, 788 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: that's gonna be a lot different Cardinals on lap snacks, 789 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:07,360 Speaker 1: Harrison and Jamal Adams dope. Now Harrison's on the practice squad. 790 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 1: He was close. They were going to bring him up 791 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:13,400 Speaker 1: another week. Um, So that game is gonna be a 792 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 1: lot different than it was at State Farm Stadium. And 793 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully the Cardinals, you know, they feel like 794 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 1: they can play with them. Obviously they match up well 795 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 1: with them. But adding those three guys, uh, that's it's 796 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 1: gonna be a different game. And when you look at 797 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: the Niners, I mean, you lose your quarterbacks. You know, 798 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 1: he's not playing on one leg. They try to stick 799 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 1: him out there, he couldn't move. Then they lose Kittle 800 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,280 Speaker 1: and Bosa. So these are these are big time names, 801 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 1: and you could see based on their salaries how much 802 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:43,839 Speaker 1: they're they're counting against the cap. That's how much they're 803 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:47,319 Speaker 1: gonna miss these guys. Seahawks six and one, beating the 804 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: forty nine Ers, bouncing back from the loss to the 805 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 1: Cardinals Seahawks four, and they'll play three of their next 806 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 1: four though on the road. First, what they visit to 807 00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:00,200 Speaker 1: the Bills, And let's talk about the new names, if 808 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: you will, or fresh faces. Jamal Adams did not play 809 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:08,280 Speaker 1: on Sunday. He's expected to return this week. Carlos Dunlap 810 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 1: acquired from the Bengals, an eleven year pro, two time 811 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 1: Pro bowler. He should be able to add something to 812 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 1: the Seahawks defense. And of course that game is coming 813 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 1: up against the Cardinals on November nineteenth, on a short week. 814 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 1: It's Thursday night football. Cardinals have to travel there on 815 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:29,319 Speaker 1: a Wednesday, play on a Thursday, coming off a game, 816 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,399 Speaker 1: a home game against the Bills. But yeah, this Seahawks team, 817 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: you know, certainly looked very very good. Russell Wilson four 818 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 1: more touchdown passes. He continues to sling it in. Dk 819 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: Metcalf twelve catches, one hundred and sixty one yards, two 820 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: touchdowns on fifteen targets. The defense got a little better 821 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 1: as well. They're still having running back issues. Chris Carson 822 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:53,840 Speaker 1: Carlos Hide did not play, so at this point, you 823 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 1: know they will go as far as Russell Wilson, but 824 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 1: if they can get that defense a little bit better, 825 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 1: even marginally better than the Seahawks not only are the 826 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:05,719 Speaker 1: number one seed, but maybe the team to beat in 827 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:10,600 Speaker 1: the NFC. Yeah, and we know how much Buddha Baker 828 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,440 Speaker 1: means to this defense. And if you watch Jamal Adams 829 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: throughout his career, um, you know he's he's like Buddha Baker. 830 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 1: He's another guy you can put this in the box. 831 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 1: He conplits off the edge really good in coverage, and 832 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 1: I think that defense will settle down with him just 833 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 1: him being on the field. It's like we talk about imposing, 834 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 1: you know, coordinators looking at a certain offensive defense, well, 835 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 1: where's where's Jamal Adams? And then you know, you look 836 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 1: at you know, where's Carlos Dunlop because they also have 837 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,600 Speaker 1: good players. But I think I just think on paper, 838 00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 1: it's going to be a different matchup. So again, Seahawks, Cardinals, 839 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 1: Rams forty nine ers. That's the order in the NFC West, 840 00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 1: a division that is collectively twenty and ten ten games 841 00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 1: above five hundred, with three of the teams right now 842 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 1: currently in the postseason, with the Rams coming up at 843 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:08,360 Speaker 1: number seven. Remember, seven teams from each conference make the playoffs, 844 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 1: and right now the Cardinals looking very good because of 845 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 1: their two and oh mark inside the division. But again, 846 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:20,000 Speaker 1: let's get that focus on this week, not against the Seahawks, 847 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 1: and really hammer home the point that it's all Dolphins 848 00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 1: all the time, because this team cannot get ahead of themselves. 849 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:29,759 Speaker 1: And I think I think that might have been the 850 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: case maybe even last year after the bye week, and 851 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: they weren't good last year when they hit the bye week, 852 00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: and maybe some guys were looking ahead to the offseason. 853 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:42,359 Speaker 1: But this, from what we're seeing or hearing, it just 854 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: seems that there is a different level of focus from 855 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 1: not only the coaches, but the players as well. Yeah, 856 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 1: and you know, hopefully it sounds like they've had that conversation, 857 00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,360 Speaker 1: they learned from it, and you know they got you know, 858 00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:57,480 Speaker 1: it's a bad taste because you know, you didn't expect that, 859 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:01,400 Speaker 1: but obviously to live and learn. And you know, hopefully 860 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,719 Speaker 1: we're not having that conversation come Sunday night on the 861 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 1: postgame show because we talk about their winnable games. You know, 862 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,839 Speaker 1: I like the matchup for the Cardinals, but you're playing 863 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,479 Speaker 1: a team that's got some momentum right now. They feel 864 00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 1: like they've turned the corner under Brian Flores. They got 865 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 1: a ton of draft picks in the future. They got 866 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 1: a young quarterback, just like the Cardinals did, just like 867 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 1: the Rams did with Golf. And then you throw in, um, 868 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:27,960 Speaker 1: you know, some of these other teams like Lamar Jackson 869 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 1: in Kansas City, so they feel like they got some momentum. 870 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 1: You know, we don't play them a lot, so there's 871 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 1: gonna be some probably the little surprises. Even though the 872 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: Cardinals will look at the last four games and obviously 873 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,239 Speaker 1: they played a coup against something of the NFC West team, 874 00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,440 Speaker 1: so they'll get a better engage of that. But right 875 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 1: now focuses on the Miami Dolphins and take care of 876 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 1: business at home and start to build it and keep 877 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 1: stack and wins. Yeah, the months of September and October 878 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:58,760 Speaker 1: behind us. It's now meaningful football in November and December. 879 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:01,400 Speaker 1: To steal a line that you always use, Mike Jarecki, 880 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 1: so again, welcome back Bird Gang from the bye and 881 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 1: of course we will continue to talk about the Dolphins 882 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,880 Speaker 1: game coming up this weekend. It is a two twenty 883 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:15,560 Speaker 1: five starts from State Farm Stadium. And on that note, 884 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:17,880 Speaker 1: we will put a lid on this edition of Cardinals 885 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:20,960 Speaker 1: Cover two presented by Hunday, proud partner of the Arizona 886 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 1: Cardinals Special.
