Momentarily, I am armed and ready here 22 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: with combine knowledge and notes, NFL combine information, stats, and 23 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 1: information so profound that it's guaranteed to boggle the mind. 24 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: So if any point, Wolf, everyone starts dozing off and 25 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: you're just boring the pants office, then you know, like, 26 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: right now, Wolf, obviously you got nothing here we go 27 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: do Actually? I do, boy? Right now? I mean a bubble, 28 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: boy that you are right there? Your forehead one fit 29 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: in the bubble. JJ Watt and TJ Watter the only 30 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: pair of brothers who ever both win Defensive Player of 31 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: the Year honors. Did you know that each had the 32 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: largest hand size of any defensive player at their respective combine? Yeah, 33 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: how about bad Polly? I'd love to see you know 34 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 1: what if that is the truth right there? What size 35 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: was it, Paul? Do you know? Was it like the 36 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: legendary eleven? It was? They both were eleven, and I 37 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: believed JJ was eleven and an eighth. Oh my goodness, 38 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: are you serious? Do you know what your hand would 39 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: look like, Polly? Against that a size eleven hand of JJ's. 40 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,959 Speaker 1: That'd be I don't want any part of that matchup. No, 41 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: you do not wantsoever right there? In fact, did you 42 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: see jj Watt and the tweetie where he's holding the 43 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: gatorade can and somebody split the screen and compared it 44 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: to the old infamous picture of Andre the Giant with 45 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: a can of beer in his hand, And it wasn't 46 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: that far off, I mean, by the way speaking, because well, 47 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: you are prone to giving us a lot of the noise, 48 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: a lot of the nonsense about hand size as we 49 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: lead up to the draft. Just allow you know, I've 50 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: got huge hands. Ball. Let you know that Joe Burrow 51 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: had the smallest hand size among all quarterbacks drafted in 52 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 1: the first round since two thousand and three. Joe Burrow 53 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: had the smallest hand size of any quarterback drafted in 54 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: the first since two thousand and three. So just I 55 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: don't want to hear you the hand size stuff between 56 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 1: now and the NFL drafts. Once again, though, Paully, you 57 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: got to understand there are norms, right, I mean, there 58 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: are standards that you're gonna look at and say the 59 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: vast majority, it's always going to be exceptions, Paully. You 60 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: know there's always going to be exceptions like, oh, I 61 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: don't know, having a fullback that's only two hundred and 62 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: twenty two pounds. That was an exception stroke right there. 63 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: You're always going to get the outlier on the combine numbers, 64 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: and that's the great thing about it because you just 65 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: in the end never know. So we're armed and ready. 66 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: We have more factoids on factoids from the combine, ready 67 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: to entertain as we lead up here to Dave Pass 68 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: joining us on this edition of the Big Red Rage Wolf. 69 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: Did you realize that earlier this week Tuesday, Tuesday not 70 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: only was a palindrome to twenty two twenty two, Yeah, 71 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: I got it, Paul, it was also the start of 72 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: the window in which teams can designate players with a 73 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 1: franchise or transition tag dot dot dot. Do you anticipate 74 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: either one being used by your Arizona car You know, honestly, 75 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: I've been thinking about this right here, and of course 76 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: you're going to have to go ahead and tell me 77 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: what contracts are going to be redone, so to speak, 78 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: What contracts are you going to go ahead and condense 79 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: and free up some money? How much money will the 80 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals have when Steve Kim is ready to go 81 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: in free agency. That is the question that I have 82 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: right now. They're at the cap limit if you believe 83 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: all the websites, and the projected cap is two hundred 84 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: eight million and change, not exactly officially official, yet Cardinals 85 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: are right there at about the cap, maybe eight hundred 86 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: grand over if you do that. So then you start 87 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: looking at certain candidates and you're right, Well, if you 88 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: look at a guy like DeAndre Hopkins, who's annual salary 89 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: is going from twelve and a half to twenty five 90 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: million this coming year, or a JJ Watt from five 91 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: million to nearly sixteen million, Yes, a Buddha Baker from 92 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: seven point eight to fourteen point eight, even a Rodney 93 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: Hudson from two point nine to twelve point six. So 94 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: are these guys candidates to redo? And then if you're 95 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: talking about perhaps a tag is at where Chandler Jones 96 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: might come into play. Pass Rusher to pass Rusher. Here's 97 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: Kyle Vannenbosch on the Red Sea Report this week, just 98 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: on the decisions that are coming from Steve Kim and company. 99 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: There's a lot of tough decisions and a lot of 100 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: it comes down to what does this team think they 101 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: can do in free agency and what positions do they 102 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: value the most in upgrading? So what what says you 103 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: on this front? And in particular, let's start with Chandler 104 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: Jones because the math has been revised. Apparently if you're 105 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 1: gonna tag Chandler Jones, it's gonna cost you twenty five 106 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: million dollars. Wow, Polly, I thought it was twenty million 107 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: for a franchise tag on the edge. That's what I saw, 108 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,720 Speaker 1: twenty million point one. So obviously you've got new numbers 109 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: that I have not seen right now on a franchise tag. 110 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: But Polly, what about a transition tag possibility? What about 111 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: that the top ten at the position right there? Maybe 112 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: that's something you could do. Give you the right of 113 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: first refusal because when you look at the pending free 114 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: agent class, there are not a lot of edge rushers. 115 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: There just aren't. There are going to be some receivers, 116 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 1: they're theoretically available. There are going to be some offensive 117 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: linemen that are potentially available in free agency that you 118 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: would be interested in. Not a lot of edge rushers. 119 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: And you know how it works, Wolf In the NFL, 120 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 1: once you get your quarterback, it's all about protect quarterback. 121 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: And then get to the quarterback right, Yes, and minus 122 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: Chandler Jones the Cardinals, that's going to be a big 123 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: box to check if they don't bring him back. Yeah. No, 124 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: you're right about that, Paula. Honestly, to a point so much. 125 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,679 Speaker 1: I was thinking about that this week. Is there anyway really? 126 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: What if they do slap the franchise tag on Chandler Jones? Listen, 127 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: I don't think Chan is done. I don't. I don't 128 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: think Chandler Jones. I don't think they want to pay 129 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: him twenty million dollars a year. As a matter of fact, 130 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: I know they don't want to pay him twenty million 131 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: dollars a year. But you know, honestly, if it's for 132 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: one year, I think it's more. It's something you can 133 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: actually do if you're Steve Kim in the Arizona Cardinals. 134 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: And you know, again, I want to see the best 135 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: for Chan. I want to see him go and be 136 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: happy wherever he plays, whether it's here or somewhere else, 137 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: finishing his career. But this is the way that it goes. 138 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: He is a quality edge Russia rim. Because of that, 139 00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: I could see them slapping as transition tag on him. Yeah, 140 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: I mean you think about Look, five of his ten 141 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: and a half sacks came in one game, we know that, 142 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: in the season opener at Tennessee. But he still had 143 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: the Cardinals in total pressures. He tied for the NFL 144 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: lead and turnovers cause by pressure. In fact, he was 145 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: tied with Marcus Golden in that category. And he did 146 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: it without that stud defensive tackle, that guy who was 147 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: supposed to be Jordan Phillips. He did it without, you know, 148 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: at Jeffrey Simmons. He did a while than Aaron Donald. 149 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: He did it without that guy a running mate where 150 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: they could do the t games you talk about, you know, 151 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: and so he got an inordinate amount of attention. We 152 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: know that. And so if you think about it, the 153 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: last time they tagged him, a month later they ended 154 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: up doing his long term contract extensions. So a lot 155 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: of times when you tag someone, that's the catalyst to 156 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: get a deal done because the number is so huge 157 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: that coming season. Yeah, PAULI, No, there's no doubt about it. Man, 158 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: at the edge is a great place to start. But 159 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 1: I also think right now, man, I'm thinking of Kyler 160 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: Murray and what the Arizona Cardinals have got to do 161 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: to continue the advancement of Kyler Murray and his career. 162 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: I'm looking at offensive guard. I mean, offensive guard is 163 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: a position. Maybe you want to address this, I don't know, 164 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: own free agency if you can. The problem is, if 165 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: you're going to address it in free agency, you're gonna 166 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: pay through the nose. For the most part, PAULI, that 167 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: is a position, offensive line. There's a lot of people 168 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,599 Speaker 1: out there that are looking for offensive line. That is 169 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: a position I think needs to be addressed at some 170 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: point in time. For me, for the most part, I 171 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 1: love getting an offensive lineman, an offensive guard that has 172 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: got some experience behind him, you know, I mean, but 173 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: that's the problem. Suddenly a guy has got some experience 174 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: behind him, has some tape on himself as well, and 175 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 1: he's doing well. Guess what people want to pay that guy. 176 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: Maybe it's the draft. The Arizona Card will say, hey, 177 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 1: twenty three, we're going to take the best guard a valible. 178 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: That's a position I want to see address because of 179 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: the NFC West and who plays in the NFC West, 180 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: of course, and also because Kyler Murray needs to be protective. Well, 181 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: two thoughts there. Number one, If you take a quick 182 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: look and I was looking today at some potential free 183 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 1: agent offensive lineman Mark Lewinsky in Indianapolis. Do you like 184 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: the Colts offensive line because their starting guard could be 185 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: out there? But to your point, you're probably gonna have 186 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: to pay through the nose. Here's the other thing, getting 187 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,679 Speaker 1: back to the Combine notes and knowledge, fifty eight offensive 188 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: linemen have been invited to this year's Combine. That's the 189 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 1: most since twenty thirteen. So that's definitely a loaded position 190 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: group offensive line. And we'll see where the Cardinals may 191 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: be able to pull out of that. We'll hear what 192 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: Dave Pasha has to say about what needs are most pressing. 193 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 1: Next on the Big Red Rage presented by Satan four 194 00:10:51,720 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: in Gilbert, Ah, I have yet to broadcast up. Well, hey, 195 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: there's an invitation here. You want to come to a 196 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 1: game with me sometime? What you're just a fan, but 197 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: you're a fan that had a podcast just wanted to 198 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: talk about football. And then I call in here and 199 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: we're already in overtime. Yep, because you talk so long 200 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,559 Speaker 1: with that even get a question. So Ron Wolfley is 201 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 1: who I do the Cardinal games that there are a 202 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: lot of people that want to hear you and Ron 203 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: Wolfley on a broadcast. Wolfe, let's go already invited us 204 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:33,839 Speaker 1: in with Werewolves of London. That can be arranged. There's 205 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: the next certain take from the Pash podcast. And let 206 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: me tell you, if Dave wants a broadcast where he 207 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,839 Speaker 1: really won't say anything, just get Walton and wolf Ley 208 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: together and guaranteed he'll have to be paid by the 209 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 1: word during that one. In fact, he'll probably say more 210 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,959 Speaker 1: here tonight than he would during a three hour game broadcast. 211 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: As Yes, the voice of the Arizona Cardinals for the 212 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: past two decades is our special guest here on The 213 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: Big Red Rage, presented by Santanford and Gil We're Dave Pash. 214 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: How are we doing, Paul wolf how are we doing? Guys? 215 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: We're doing good man. Thank you, David, really appreciate you 216 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: joining us right now. Do you want to rip Paul 217 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: right off the top? Do you want to do something? Oh, 218 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: nothing of the sort. You know, Aaron Rodgers. You gotta 219 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: see where Aaron Rodgers yesterday said each quote just came 220 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: out of a twelve day cleanse where you're eating a 221 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: specific diet. And I'm thinking, you know what, Dave hangs 222 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,719 Speaker 1: out a lot with Bill Walton, especially this time of year. 223 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: Have you ever been on a Bill Walton cleans of 224 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: any sort? Dave, No, No, you know he used to. 225 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 1: So what he does in terms of his pregame routine 226 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: is he has a large amount of protein that he 227 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: takes into his body, and he also eats about three 228 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: hundred energy choose. And he used to give something to me. 229 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: He is like this gel that he sucks on and 230 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: then he choose. He used to give me something. He 231 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: doesn't do that anymore, which is probably good because I 232 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: could never fall asleep the night after games with them, 233 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,839 Speaker 1: because for him, these broadcasts are like Game seven of 234 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 1: the NBA Finals, merrying up for a battle. So, David, 235 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: you're you're telling me he eats a ton of protein choose. 236 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: Is that what you say? Yeah? Protein bars? Oh my 237 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: good bars, a huge thermis that has like a chocolate 238 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: protein shake. And then he'll sit there and he'll eat 239 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: energy choose like you've seen the little cubes. They're like, 240 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 1: you know, look like a little you know, jelly candy. 241 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: That he'll sit there and just down those. And there's 242 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 1: this other thing, this gel that he sucks on. It's hilari. David, 243 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 1: you had to be so thankful for the pandemic and 244 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: being masked up. I would imagine with the protein bars. Well, 245 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: I'll tell Aaron Rodgers called his clans a quote a 246 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:54,839 Speaker 1: kind of recentering that heals you physically and spiritually with meditation. 247 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,959 Speaker 1: So we need to get Aaron Rodgers and boll Walden together. 248 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: I think that's the conclusion there. And by the way, 249 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: for all the day Pass podcast you can go. In fact, 250 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: the latest one features Suns board and stand out mcale bridges. Right, 251 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: isn't that right, Dave? Yeah, we had mckel last week 252 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: talking about you know, the Suns and potentially winning defensive 253 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: player of the year, doing a little bit outside the 254 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: box here with that. And then this week we've got 255 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: George Klayoff cough and you're wondering who's that. He is 256 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: the new PAC twelve commissioner. He will be on this 257 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: week to talk about a lot of things, including the 258 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: college football playoff not expanding, which is you know, a big, 259 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 1: big topic right now in college football. Well, here on 260 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: the Big Red Rage, our big topic is the off 261 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: season and in a lot of ways, it really officially 262 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: ramped up and launched this week. Dave, do you expect 263 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: it to be inactive off season. A team that started 264 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: seven and zero ten and two lost five of their 265 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: final six. We all saw the ending. What sort of 266 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: offseason does that mandate? You think, if you want to 267 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: stay competitive and dare I say, make a run at 268 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: playing in your building comes Super Bowl fifty seven, I 269 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 1: think it'll be active, Paul, and I think it starts 270 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: with resigning your key players. I would assume that James 271 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 1: Connor and Zach Ertz are at the top of the list. 272 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: And then you know, trying to figure out, Okay, what 273 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: free agents do we need to target, what trades do 274 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: we need to make? And then I think the draft 275 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: is your last tool that you use to improve your 276 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: team because you're you're that close. The draft is still important, 277 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: but I think these other things, and that was the 278 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: case last year and really the year before. You know, 279 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: you've built your team. Now it's adding that piece that 280 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: can get you over the top. And you know, Kyler 281 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: Murray has to be Kyler Murray from the first two 282 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: months for the Cardinals to get where they want to go. 283 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: But you know, adding pieces around you or trading pieces 284 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: to get better players can help Kyler get to that 285 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: next level. There's no doubt about it, David. It's one 286 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: of the reasons why, you know, if you look at 287 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: the top three positions of importance maybe this offseason, if 288 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: you guys care to talk about that in regard to 289 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: what you think is your number one position, Polly, receiver. 290 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go a receiver. I'm gonna go flat out receiver. 291 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: Right now, you have DeAndre Hopkins, you have Rondale Moore 292 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: and TBA. And look, you had DeAndre Hopkins even when 293 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: he was healthy. Did you really have a legit number two? 294 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: You need that other outside guy and whether that can 295 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: be Rondale Moore, and we'll talk about that a little 296 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: bit later, and we'll hear, you know, just about the 297 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: prospects of perhaps moving him outside and what could his 298 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: route tree be. But to me, receiver is just vital, 299 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: especially in this Cliff Kingsbury offense. And so whether that's feasible, 300 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: whether you can pull a trade, whether there's somebody viable 301 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: be a free agency, I just think that has to 302 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: be addressed because look at how the offense just dried 303 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: up in its productivity once you lost d hop Yeah, Polly, honestly, 304 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: that really is that as a good answer right there, 305 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: and I don't know if there's any wrong answers. I 306 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 1: think this team does have an awful lot of needs. 307 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: But for me, you're talking about Kyler Murray and protecting 308 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. And because of that, especially in the NFC 309 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 1: West where you've got the likes of an Aaron Donald, 310 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 1: I think you have got to do whatever you can 311 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: to shore up that interior offensive line right there, and 312 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:28,120 Speaker 1: in particular, I would say offensive guard that is number one. 313 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: Now listen, I don't know, guys, do you get that 314 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: in free agency? This is something we were talking about 315 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: PAULI in the last beautiful part of the program for 316 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 1: a couple of minutes. Do you do that in free agency? 317 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 1: Do you do that in the draft? I love this 318 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 1: Kenyon Green kid from Texas A and M. Have you 319 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: seen this kid? Six four three d twenty five pounds 320 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: Kenyon Green. I think he might be there at number 321 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: twenty three, And based on what I see, he's capable 322 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: of playing in a zone scheme and a man blocking 323 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: scheme or a power scheme, dave position group what he 324 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 1: thinks most vital, most needed. Right now, I want all defense, 325 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: and I'll explain why I think you know, you can 326 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: still get somebody in the draft on the offensive line. 327 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,880 Speaker 1: You've got enough veterans there that you can get somebody 328 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 1: in the draft that you can plug in play. But 329 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: they were pretty good up front for the most part 330 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: this year, and they had depth up front, you know, receiver. 331 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 1: I'm with you, PAULI. After de hop went down, they 332 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: weren't as good at that position. But you know, how 333 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 1: much of that, you know, is the offense as a whole. 334 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: How much of that is Kyler wasn't as good, and 335 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 1: you know he has to adjust to d hop not 336 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 1: being there. It didn't seem like, you know, his numbers 337 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: obviously went down and things were not as easy for 338 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: him in terms of reading defenses when DeAndre Hopkins is 339 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: not on the field. Uh, you know Aj Green, you know, 340 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: we saw that he's on the downside of his career. 341 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk almost had a thousand yards, So what do 342 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: you do there contractually with him and Rondel Moore. I 343 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: was curious why he wasn't as productive the second half 344 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 1: of the season, And again, how much of that is 345 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,439 Speaker 1: the offense as a whole just wasn't as good without 346 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins and Kyler wasn't as good. So for me, 347 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: it's a defense. You know, the defensive line, you know, 348 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: was disappointing. A corner they're young. Byron Murphy was great 349 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,679 Speaker 1: the first half, wasn't as good the second half. And 350 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: you know, inside linebacker, you know, at some point you 351 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 1: know whether it's going out and get somebody else, I 352 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: mean outside linebacker for that matter. You know, do you 353 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 1: bring back Chandler Jones at his age, given the money 354 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,239 Speaker 1: that he's going to attract on the open market, and 355 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: then you know your your draft picks. The last two years, 356 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 1: Isaiah Simmons took a step, He's got to take another step. 357 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 1: Zavian Collins has to be a factor. So to me, 358 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: I think you're good enough if Tyler Murray is the 359 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: plays the way he did those first seven games, and 360 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: if you can get a second tight end at Max 361 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 1: Williams comes back that that was a key loss for 362 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: them the man. If Kyler plays the way he did 363 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: the first two months, I don't know that you need 364 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 1: to have an all star lineup around him, but you 365 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,679 Speaker 1: do have to have better players on defense, or at 366 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: least those younger players that step up on defense. Voice 367 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: of the Cardinals Day pass our guest in the Big 368 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,399 Speaker 1: Red Rage. I will see my next two position groups 369 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: after receiver, and we already talked about edge rusher to 370 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: start the show. But my next two position groups do 371 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: come on the defensive side corner and I think the 372 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: loss of Robert Alfred was underrated. It was underestimated just 373 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: how severe a blow that was to the Cardinals defense. 374 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: When Marco Wilson all of a sudden had to be 375 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: your number two corner down in and down out. If 376 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: you believe Pro Football Focus, he allowed a passer rating 377 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 1: of one thirty four in coverage. Marco Wilson is a 378 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: number three corner, you are a much better defense if 379 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: you can get a legit number one or number two 380 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 1: corner to go with Byron Murphy. And then the other 381 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 1: spot was a spot that Jordan Phillips was supposed to 382 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: fill in free agency a couple of years ago. And 383 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: that's defensive tackle. And if you can have a guy 384 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 1: who can start collapsing the pocket from the inside, from 385 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: the inside out and or stopping the run, what was 386 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: it a half dozen times that Cardinals gave up a 387 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: buck fifty or more rushing? That was a problem, a 388 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: persistent problem, and if you can get that guy as 389 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: an interior d lineman, that's big. So those are your 390 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: two right there, Polly, those are your three altogether. You 391 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: know what, I'm gonna go number two. I'm gonna go 392 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: corner back. Listen, Marco Wilson. I'm bullish on Marco Wilson. 393 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 1: I am. I understand the Pro Football Focus grade that 394 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: is out there right now. Here's what I know watching 395 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: him through the first ten to twelve weeks of the season. 396 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: He was a different player the first ten to twelve 397 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: weeks of the season than he was to finish out 398 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: the season. Would you can agree with that? That? I mean, 399 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 1: I'm wondering about that, Paul, Yeah, I seriously wonder about that. 400 00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: I know how high the Arizona Cardinals coaching staff was, 401 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: especially the defensive side of the ball, on Marco Wilson, 402 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 1: and Marco Wilson was holding his own and then he 403 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: seemed to hit a wall and we've seen it before. 404 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: I'm not condoning it. I'm not saying, ah, there it is. 405 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: That's okay, Marco. It's okay. If you don't play well, 406 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 1: you hit the rookie. Well, No, I'm not I'm not 407 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 1: condoning it, But to me, maybe that's what happened to 408 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: Marco Wilson. I think offensive guard, protect Kyler Murray. I 409 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,439 Speaker 1: think cornerback. You need a corner out there to go 410 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,959 Speaker 1: with Byron Murphy and Marco Wilson, and hopefully you'll step up, 411 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: maybe even sign Robert Alfred once again to a veterans 412 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: minimum contract and bring him back at thirty three. And 413 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: then my last room would be the tight end. Man. 414 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: I honestly this was at go back and look at 415 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 1: the tape. This was a completely different team through the 416 00:22:55,960 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 1: first five weeks of the season. Offensively, they play their 417 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 1: best when they had a two way tight end and 418 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: rundown situation. And Max Williams, Yeah, I mean, Dave, to 419 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: your point, if the Cardinals make zach ERT's a priority 420 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 1: and they spend the money, they retain zach Ertz, Max 421 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: Williams coming off a knee injury, a season, any knee injury, 422 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 1: I mean, what's the market going to be for him? 423 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,479 Speaker 1: Do you think it's realistic that somehow, some way they 424 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: can retain both those tight ends for the twenty twenty 425 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: two roster. And if they don't, to Wolf's point, they 426 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 1: have to find another guy. They can do that, and 427 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: that's either in free agency or through the draft. You know, 428 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 1: getting somebody high that can be a weapon. I mean 429 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 1: tight ends you now are basically like receivers. Can you 430 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 1: find that guy that's a great blocker. But I want 431 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 1: to go back to your guys point on Marco Wilson, 432 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,239 Speaker 1: and that's why I put the defensive line as the 433 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: biggest area of need for me, because if your defensive 434 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: line is better, if you're getting more push up the middle, 435 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: if you're getting consistent pressure off the edge, if you're 436 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: stopping the run up front, your corners are automatically better. 437 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: So yes, they need to upgrade. They need somebody. I'm 438 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 1: not sure Marca Wilson can't be a number one or 439 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 1: Byron Murphy can't be a number one there, They're just 440 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: their numbers weren't as good the second half of the 441 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 1: season because overall the team wasn't as good. So and 442 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: I include you know what I say, defensive line, I 443 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: include outside linebacker that you know, because those guys are 444 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: standing up, but they're on the line the entire game, 445 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: so you know. The Chandler Jones factor to me is 446 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: if okay, if you don't bring him back what's the domino? 447 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,199 Speaker 1: Who's your number one guy there? And if it's not 448 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: Chandler Jones, then then who is it? Are you prepared? 449 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: You don't have to pay somebody and those those guys 450 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: are expensive, but you know there is a risk with 451 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: Chandler Jones at this age to give him that kind 452 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: of money. Yeah, he's going to be thirty two this season. 453 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: And if he isn't in the fold and you don't 454 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 1: get a guy in free agency because it's just too 455 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: darn expensive, and then is that too obvious come draft time, 456 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: that's your and then teams jump you in the draft 457 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: order if there is a viable edge rusher when it 458 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 1: comes your turn to pick. So and as far as 459 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: marcol Wilson, I'm with you guys. You know, Christian Kirk 460 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: told us something towards the end of the season on 461 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: the Big Red Rage, and it was, you know what, 462 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: when Marco Wilson did get beat, it's not like he 463 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: got roasted. He was competitive all the way through most 464 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 1: of the time. So you know, maybe it's just making 465 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,199 Speaker 1: that jump from year one to year two and he 466 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 1: is a viable number two eventually, maybe even a number 467 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:30,919 Speaker 1: one corner. In fact, that will be the question we 468 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 1: come back, which player do you think will make a 469 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 1: jump next season? Which player needs to make that jump 470 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: for the Cardinals to make a corresponding leap. It is 471 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: the Big Red Rage with Dave pass all presented by 472 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 1: Satan Pord to Gilbert. We are Satan Pord. It's a 473 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 1: fleet flinker pitching it back to Laurence. He's in troubles. 474 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: Jump bump pass picked up there side by Murphy at 475 00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 1: the thirty running it back to the left of the 476 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 1: twenty ten Fida fire Murphy after a horrible mistake by 477 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: the rookie with a pick six Henry off the left 478 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: side and he's dumped immediately, and it's Isaiah Simmons knifing 479 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: into the backfield to take him down. I want to 480 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 1: play by Simmons. You want to talk about playing downhill. 481 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 1: Isaiah Simmons coming from the backside, making a play on 482 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 1: King Henry's baby nigh trafficks on the defensive side of 483 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: the ball. For the ears of a Cardinals. We are 484 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: talking with the collective voice stairs and a Cardinals day 485 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: patch and Ron Wolfley here on the Big Red Rage. 486 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: Paully pencil Neck over here bringing you combine notes and knowledge. 487 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,200 Speaker 1: You guys, speaking of Isaiah Simmons, you realize that back 488 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: in the day, with the combines starting next weekday, that 489 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: Isaiah Simmons when he was at his combine ran a 490 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 1: faster forty yard dash than the all time greatest return 491 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 1: man in the history of the NFL, Debon Hester. That 492 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: Isaiah Simmons ran a four three nine, and Devin Hester 493 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: at his combine once out of time ran a four 494 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: four three. So it's just then. Conversely, you realize Cooper Cup, 495 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: who just won the Triple Crown of receiving and a 496 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 1: ring by the way, and he was what four for 497 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: four with Matthew Stafford on the game winning Super Bowl drive, 498 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 1: ran the fourth slowest forty yard dash over the last 499 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: ten NFL drafts of any receiver taken in the top 500 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 1: three rounds. A four six two by Cooper Cup. And 501 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 1: look at it right now. Is there a better receiver 502 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: on the planet than Cooper Cup? Right now? Paul I 503 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 1: ran a four or five eight and a four or 504 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 1: five nine at the combine just for Walford, David, It's 505 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 1: in the books. Can you imagine that right there? He 506 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: had to Honestly, it just goes to show you if 507 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 1: you run routes well and know the road tree and 508 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 1: in no coverage and know how to beat it, um, 509 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,880 Speaker 1: you can do well in this league, can't you well? Voice? 510 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: I just finished watching Man in the Arena. I don't 511 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: know if you guys have seen that, Tom Brady. I 512 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: just watched the last episode and the big probably the 513 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 1: the crux of the issue with the Patriots was finding 514 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: that receiver that go to guy after Welker and after 515 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 1: Randy Moss and guess who it was. It was a 516 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 1: guy they drafted I think it was like two hundred 517 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: and thirtieth Julian Edelman who ended up winning Super Bowl MVP. 518 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 1: He was Cooper Cup before Cooper Cup. Right, wow, yeah, 519 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: that's good stuff. That's good stuff. All right? So look 520 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 1: who was that guy for the Cardinals this coming season? 521 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: Who's that guy not named Kyler Murray that needs to 522 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: take the next step that you expect to that? I mean, Wolf, 523 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: go ahead, name name let it please, please, please, please 524 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: please please. Saven Coin can't argue with that. I'd be 525 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: honestly right now, I just want to see Zaven Collins 526 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: step up. This is going to be great for him. 527 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: He's going to have the entire offseason. He's actually going 528 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: to be able to work out at the facility. Of course, 529 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: he's going to be able to watch tape. He's going 530 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: to be able to go through the process. He's going 531 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: to be able to just absorb everything that there is 532 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: about the National Football League. He's going to be able 533 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,719 Speaker 1: to study tape. He's going to totally be able to 534 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: get the checks down in his brain. He's going to 535 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: absorb this defense and then he's gonna go on and 536 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: he's gonna take that body. He's going to stick that 537 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 1: body on somebody. And if you tell me that happens 538 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: right there, that's the one guy. I'll start with Zaven Collins, Dave, 539 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: what do you think? I'll start with Rondale Moore, And 540 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: I think Wolf made a good point on you know, 541 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: Zaven Collins, and we talked in the first segment that 542 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: I was on about you know, the guys in the 543 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: back end that they need to step up and grow. 544 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: Rondelle Moore. We saw flashes glimpses of this guy being electric. 545 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 1: And again, I don't know what happen the second half 546 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 1: of the season, and I think a lot of it 547 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 1: was just the trickle down from d hop not being there. 548 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: But I think if he steps up and he becomes 549 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: a legit number two and you're telling me DeAndre Hopkins 550 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: is fully healthy, I think the Cardinals have a chance 551 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:21,479 Speaker 1: to take that next step because Rondel Moore fits the 552 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: mold of I shouldn't say today's receiver because there are 553 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: plenty of guys like DK Metcap that still look like 554 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: the guys that you know, we're you know, the top 555 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: five picks, like Calvin Johnson, but you know a lot 556 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: of guys today are the smaller guy, the guy that's 557 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: like Cooper Cup that kind of works in the slot, 558 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: that can do different things, that makes the contested catch, 559 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 1: that's tough after the catch. I think Rondel Moore has 560 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: a chance to be that guy well. And Sean Jefferson 561 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: was our guest at Cardinals Receivers Coach last week and 562 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 1: we brought that up, what is the future for Rondell Moore? 563 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: How much more can you get out of them? And 564 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of who like to compare 565 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: him to a Tyreek Hill, a poor man's Tyreek Hill, 566 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 1: and we're not going to go there yet, but Sean 567 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 1: Jefferson did say, yes, we can target him downfield like 568 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 1: a Tyreek Hill. He does have that rout tree, he 569 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 1: does have that pot, but you have to move him outside, 570 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: right Wolf. I mean, it's that viable. Is that feasible? Hey, listen, 571 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hills scorches a lot of defense from the slot. 572 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: I mean watch Him'll line up in the slot, He'll 573 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: run up the field and then all the way across. 574 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: He'll run not a post, but all the way across 575 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: the field. And it's one of those areas in which 576 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill and Patrick Mahomes they tear up the league 577 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 1: on that route, the crossover corner, if you will, you 578 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: line up on the opposite side of the field and 579 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 1: run the corner. And they do that an awful lot 580 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: right there, trying to get him open vertically and horizontally. 581 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 1: You guys heard me say this last year going into 582 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: Rondale Moore's rookie season. Man, that kind of speed right there, 583 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: he's got to beat him over the top. If you 584 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: tell me that he's beating these guys over the top, 585 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: He's getting vertical in his routes. And you can throw 586 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: the ball down the field and he can catch the ball, 587 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 1: he can finish and hurt defenses. Man, it would be 588 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 1: the best development for the Arizona Cardinals offense, not the 589 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 1: horizontal route, the vertical rounds. Speaking of development, I'm gonna 590 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: go with a couple of alignement. Zach Allen, who we 591 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,959 Speaker 1: learned after the year, was playing you know, the bum wheel, 592 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: and he was dealing with an injury. He had some 593 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: really standout games. If he can maintain that sort of 594 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: consistency and be that reliable guy a three technique and 595 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: more versatile as well up and down that defensive line, 596 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: that would be huge. And then I'm gonna throw out there, 597 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 1: Josh Jones the long term future of Kelvin Beacham. You're 598 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: already paying big money to DJ Humphrey's fifteen million a year, 599 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 1: and guess what his contracts gonna be up after the 600 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 1: end of next season. You're gonna have to retain your 601 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: left tackle. Hit. His vital that you get a young 602 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: guy in a rookie contract who you could plug and 603 00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: play at that right tackle position. And I think we 604 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: all learned if nothing else Josh Jones is he's not 605 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: a guard. I think twenty twenty one proved he's not 606 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: a guard. He's a tackle. But can he be a 607 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: guy you can actually put in to the depth charting 608 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: count on him going forward. Yeah, that is a good 609 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: I like that, PAULI, Yeah, I like it. I mean, 610 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: you remember when the Cardinals drafted him, they thought, man, 611 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: we got great value with this kid. We had him 612 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: as a late first round pick. You got him in 613 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 1: the third round. So now it's time for him to 614 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: play like that. And we saw a couple of games 615 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 1: where he did, and then that was about it. And 616 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 1: I think we all wondered why he wasn't as good, 617 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: you know, that last half of the season man as 618 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: he was when we saw him early in the year. Guys, 619 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: how many players could we say that about last year? 620 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: How many players we say that about that played really 621 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 1: really well. I think through the first ten, you know, 622 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: eleven weeks of the season and then all of a sudden, bam. 623 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 1: It's just it's seems so consistent. Marco Wilson was somebody 624 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 1: we were talking about in the last Beautiful part of 625 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: the program. Isaiah Simmons. Guys, Isaiah Simmons. I thought there 626 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: were some people that were pointing to Isaiah Simmons saying 627 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 1: he might be the most improved Arizona Cardinal on the 628 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: team and and Byron Murphy as well was getting a 629 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 1: lot of accolades. It was across the board. David, this 630 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,839 Speaker 1: is the thing that is just so perplexing to me 631 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: right now. Marco Wilson is a guy that I want 632 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 1: to see step up. Isaiah Simmons is a guy that 633 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:37,799 Speaker 1: I want to see do that. And let me just 634 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: say this, my sleeper, Antoine Wesley that I'm serious. I 635 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: think he could be ray J. Green. Wow. We can't 636 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: let Dave peshco without a thought on the NFC West. 637 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 1: And I just I happen to see some comments earlier 638 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 1: in the week from Tim Hasselbeck, brother of Matt Hasselbeck, 639 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 1: longtime Seattle Seahawks quarterback. And when Tim Asselback goes on ESPN, 640 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 1: I think it was Tuesday morning and he says, and 641 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 1: I quote, I think Russell Wilson has played his last 642 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: down as a Seahawk, And the graphic below him the 643 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 1: lower third reads out a quote from earlier from Tim 644 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 1: Asselback that Russell Wilson wants out and I think the 645 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 1: Seahawks would be happy to move him. Quote end quote 646 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 1: Your thoughts on Russell Wilson perhaps being on the moving 647 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: out of the NFC West. Oh, I'm sure he wants out, 648 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: but if you're Seattle, you know you're giving up a 649 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: future Hall of Famer. You got to make sure that 650 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:37,840 Speaker 1: you're getting a legitimate quarterback in return. And I'm not 651 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 1: going to rely on a rookie, meaning I'm not going 652 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 1: to trade Russell Wilson for a bunch of first round 653 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:47,479 Speaker 1: picks and go you know, three and fourteen this year. 654 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 1: So I mean that could obviously change the landscape of 655 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 1: the entire NFL if Russell Wilson has traded, especially if 656 00:35:56,120 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 1: it's somewhere else in the NFC San Francisco. I think 657 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 1: we saw that, you know, Jimmy G right now at 658 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 1: least is your best option. That's why I thought they 659 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: should have drafted Kyle Pitts last year instead of Trey Lance. 660 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 1: I still don't think Jimmy g is good enough to 661 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: get you a Super Bowl, but he's obviously good enough 662 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 1: to win some playoff games and put you in position. 663 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 1: And then the Rams, I think there's the unknown still 664 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,240 Speaker 1: with Aaron Donald and Sean McVeigh on whether those guys 665 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: come back and you know, they run it back one 666 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 1: more time, and Matthew Stafford too. But you know, the 667 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 1: Rams were not the best team in the NFL for 668 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 1: most of the season, and they won the Super Bowl. 669 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: So I still think the NFC West, given what I 670 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 1: expect how I expect the Cardinals to be next year, 671 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: I still think you're going to have three of the 672 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: top nine or ten teams in the entire NFL being 673 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: in the NFC West and at San Francisco, Arizona in 674 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 1: La Paulie, did you say Russell Wilson was going to 675 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 1: leave the NFC West? Is that what you said, Paul 676 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: That's what Tim Hasselbeck said. Do you know what I 677 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,759 Speaker 1: love Tam right now? Can we make that happen? Tim? 678 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,319 Speaker 1: Somehow someway? Can we get Russell Wilson out of the 679 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 1: NFC West. That's fine. I got no problem with that 680 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 1: in terms of San Francisco and who might actually be 681 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 1: a good fit there. Boy, there's a lot of smoke 682 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: out there about Carson Wentz right now, isn't there. There's 683 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,360 Speaker 1: a lot of smoke, and a lot of it seems 684 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:24,359 Speaker 1: pretty logical. I think that is a transition quarterback. If ever, 685 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 1: there was a transition quarterback and a guy that can 686 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 1: do both the old and the new offensive schemes that 687 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 1: I think Kyle Shanahan wants to blend, and then maybe 688 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: he doesn't have to go to Trey Lance immediately. You 689 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 1: know who wants that gig as a transition quarterback with 690 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,360 Speaker 1: the Niners. Tom Brady. Tom Brady, you can't tell me 691 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 1: doesn't want that gig and go back to his hometown team. 692 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: He was sitting in the stands for the catch by 693 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 1: Dwight Clark from Joe Montana in the eighty one NFC 694 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: Championship Game win against the Cowboys. You can't tell me 695 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 1: that Tom Brady wouldn't want to be that transition guy 696 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: back to Niners. Tommy, I'm telling you he's done, Paul. 697 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 1: He's not retired, Paul. Not only is Russell Wilson not 698 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,359 Speaker 1: leaving this season. I'm with Dave. I don't think you 699 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: could see Tom Brady with a ford of Niners in 700 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,319 Speaker 1: this division. You want the sec of the NFL. It's 701 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 1: coming before we let David got buddle. Are you gonna 702 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 1: tell me you think Tom Brady's coming back to I 703 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 1: think it's a viable possibility. I do. I think it's possible. 704 00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 1: I do, I do. I think it's what Yeah, So wait, 705 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 1: a minute. Tom Brady is literally going to use his 706 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 1: family is the reason why he wants to retire and 707 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: then go back on it. We've seen We've seen guys 708 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: make a decision in other sports or as coaches and 709 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 1: then five months, six months later change their mind. I mean, 710 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 1: think about it. It's still late February training camps a 711 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: long way off. If Tom Brady August versus I'm gonna 712 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 1: play and there's and they find a place for him 713 00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,759 Speaker 1: to play, and where is he gonna play and which 714 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: he play with? I could definitely see that out. Oh 715 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 1: my goodness. I mean, Brett Farbe did it like four 716 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 1: off seasons in a role he did. Brett Farbe never 717 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 1: used his family as to why he was going to retire. 718 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 1: Tom Brady did his kids. All he has to do is, 719 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:16,879 Speaker 1: like Dave said, four months from now, I changed my mind, 720 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 1: come back the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Why you get away 721 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 1: from Bruce Arians, Why would you want to go somewhere else? 722 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 1: If you're Tom Brady, you've you've been to the Bill 723 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 1: Bella checks up the world. Well, there's one box he 724 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 1: hasn't checked in his career walk and that's to play 725 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,879 Speaker 1: for the team he grew up rooting for him. Well 726 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: he's retired. By the way day, Missus Novella checking way 727 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 1: go watch man in the arena. I think he misses 728 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 1: coach and that type of admir We gotta let Dave 729 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:52,320 Speaker 1: pashco He's got to mentally prepare for a gig tomorrow 730 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 1: night with Bill Walton. So all the best with that, Dave, 731 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:59,719 Speaker 1: all right, David, all right, all right, we'll come back. 732 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: We'll get into this and we'll get into Rondale Moore 733 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 1: Wilson number one kick for a guy to approve next year. 734 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:12,879 Speaker 1: Next on the Big Red Rage, Maurice Drink drop back 735 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 1: in trouble, flushed out, moving left, fires it Dan left 736 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 1: side a jump ball. It's caught on the near sideline, 737 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: but they say out of bounds. Boy, rondel More, just 738 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,360 Speaker 1: a heck of a catch, man, he was interfered with. 739 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,200 Speaker 1: I don't know how they didn't call tass interference. Boy 740 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 1: did he catch it? The wolf? The ruling on the 741 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 1: field has been changed to a catch pull. It takes 742 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 1: it out. They team for ruling on the field to 743 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 1: a catch. What an incredible where I mean, you got it? 744 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:41,760 Speaker 1: That's as good as it gets. I cannot even believe 745 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: what I just saw on replay. They got some filthy 746 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 1: dudes naked place. I mean, Rondelle Moore that catch. That 747 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,799 Speaker 1: is one of the sickest plays I have seen. And 748 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,280 Speaker 1: we're talking about a rookie wide receiver. That toe tap 749 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 1: against the That was the degree of difficulty on that. 750 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:06,240 Speaker 1: And look, well, if you spent a decade in the NFL, 751 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:10,279 Speaker 1: you know the same players, no players. And it was 752 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: in training camp. It was about ten days, two weeks 753 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 1: into training camp, and it happened more than once. I'm 754 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 1: talking with a veteran, a respect a guy on the team, 755 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 1: and he would interrupt the conversation and nod towards Rondelle Morey. 756 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 1: Go see that kid, he can be he can be special. 757 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 1: That already that kid, he nods that that kid can play. 758 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:32,439 Speaker 1: So players they identified it early in training camp. He's 759 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: got all the potential. The question is, okay, can he 760 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,840 Speaker 1: get traction? And then he had some injuries, that ankle 761 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 1: injury that nagged him the end of this season, sort 762 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 1: of like it did the end of his college career. 763 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,240 Speaker 1: We get that, but then we both heard Shaun Jefferson 764 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,239 Speaker 1: and everyone heard him on the Big Red Rage last week. 765 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 1: I'm curious as to your takeaways because it sounds like, 766 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 1: according to Shaun Jefferson, they've already had that discussion about 767 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 1: him maybe moving outside more, being down field more, and 768 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 1: it sounds like his receiver coach definitely has confidence he 769 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 1: can take that step. Yeah, there's no doubt. Poly and 770 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 1: Sean Jefferson was also talking about this offseason, how critical 771 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 1: it was going to be for Rondel More this offseason 772 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 1: and the work he was going to be able to 773 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 1: get in out on the field and expanding that route 774 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:18,400 Speaker 1: tree and running routes down the field, and how important 775 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 1: it was going to be for him to develop that 776 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,759 Speaker 1: part of his game, not just horizontal but also the 777 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 1: vertical part of it. Polly, it's so important. I mean, 778 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 1: if you can tell me that you can line up 779 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 1: Rondell More, I don't care if he's in the slaughter, 780 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,919 Speaker 1: he is outside and you run him over the top 781 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 1: and you got the hop work in the short and 782 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:40,879 Speaker 1: intermediate stuff, something that he does very very well. Yeah, boy, 783 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 1: that is going to be a nightmare scenario. Throw in 784 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 1: one more you need one more wide receiver, Hey, Christian Kirk, 785 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 1: Is that a possibility that c Kirk might actually come 786 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 1: back and play. I don't know. I think somebody is 787 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,280 Speaker 1: going to step up and pay Christian Kirk, but Man 788 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,319 Speaker 1: eleven personnel is going to be a primary personnel group 789 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 1: for the Cars. One back, one tight end, three wide receivers. 790 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 1: That's when they were at their best through the first 791 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: seven weeks of the season using that personnel group and 792 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:13,399 Speaker 1: rundown situation, and they were shredding the league. Here's Kyle 793 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: Vannibosh on the Red Sea Report this week when asked 794 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 1: about Rondel Moore and his near future. You know, I 795 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 1: hate to make player comps, but you envision a Tyreek 796 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 1: Hill type of influence on this offense where he can 797 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: catch a five yard route and take it to the house. 798 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 1: But if you jump that route, he's going to go 799 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:32,880 Speaker 1: deep and he's going to be a threat down the field. 800 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:34,800 Speaker 1: And I think that's where his progression is going to 801 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: go because he shows, you know, not quite that type 802 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,600 Speaker 1: of speed of Tyreek Hill, but he shows the similar 803 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,239 Speaker 1: type of abilities and the awareness and the ability to 804 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 1: make people miss and the ability to stick his foot 805 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 1: in the ground and gain yards in a hurry. Because 806 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 1: what did so many teams do, especially the second half 807 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,320 Speaker 1: of the season they went with those two high safety 808 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,760 Speaker 1: shell coverage. Looks right. You gotta try and beat those 809 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 1: coverages for some chunk plays and make him respect that 810 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 1: and then open everything else up. I know, remember you 811 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 1: talking about that wolfing. Yeah, that obviously could be a 812 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,359 Speaker 1: big key Rondale Moore, Yeah, pay, but wait, if they're 813 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:10,799 Speaker 1: gonna run those those two high safeties, you gotta run 814 00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 1: the ball and run down situations. You've got to run 815 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 1: the ball.
