Speaker 1: Squirrel.

33
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 4: I read this earlier today. Hands well, sort of. He's

34
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 4: Josh Allen's name, and he's a retired farmer who win

35
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 4: needed is called upon to dig the Bills quarterback out

36
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 4: of his own driveway and get him out of his

37
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,519
Speaker 4: own place and to the stadium, either for practice and

38
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 4: for games.

39
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: WELLI there are guys I know that live in Orchard

40
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: Park or East Aroar somewhere out there. They've got some

41
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: acreage and suddenly they've got I don't know, one hundred

42
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: yards of driveway. And suddenly, if it starts to snow

43
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: and you get six to eight inches, or maybe you

44
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,679
Speaker 1: get six feet, you're in trouble. And you got to

45
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 1: call your neighbor to come and bail you out.

46
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 4: In fact, it was so bad earlier this week that

47
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 4: they had a travel ban in Orchard Park and all

48
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 4: the surrounding towns ron Willfleet, and yet somehow all the

49
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 4: Buffalo Bills made it to practice. So apparently they allowed

50
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 4: the Bills to hit the road obviously because they've got

51
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 4: a big playoff game come up against Kansas City. And

52
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 4: so there you go. There's your winter update. And of

53
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 4: course Cardinals do go to Buffalo next year. So all

54
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 4: the sideline reporters, we hope, you know, on behalf of

55
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 4: all of us that that game is a mid season

56
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 4: instead of late season.

57
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: Here comes hooping.

58
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, so here we go Cardinals. They're under

59
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 4: the off season, and the question becomes, all right, what's next?

60
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 4: We know last off season there was a lot of change.

61
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: We had our.

62
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 4: Hashtag no allegiances. As of right now, only eight draft

63
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 4: picks remain from the last four years. That's a thirty

64
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 4: two draft picks. Only eight remain. It's sure to be

65
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 4: fewer than that by the time next season starts. And

66
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 4: guess what this roster coming up this year? If nothing else,

67
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 4: Now that they has a year under his belt as

68
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 4: head coach. They know what to expect. Year's your head coach,

69
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 4: Jonathan Gannon.

70
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 6: Who's ever back here in twenty twenty four? They understand

71
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 6: what's expected and how we operate. And if they're back here,

72
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 6: I feel really comfortable myself and mine and the coaching

73
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 6: staff feels really comfortable about their roles. But I always say, like,

74
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 6: the price of admission is team and then you. And

75
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 6: if they're back here in twenty four, they have that.

76
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: See, that is the beautiful thing, Paul. Right now, that

77
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: is the beautiful thing about this The foundation of this

78
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: culture has been laid. It has so the foundation it

79
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: was all about, okay, what kind of football are we

80
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: going to play here? And if we're going to play

81
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: this kind of football here, what kind of football player

82
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: do we need to go get? That is the foundation

83
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 1: right now. Now, what's the next step, Paul, What is

84
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: the next thing to do? I think Manti asen Fort

85
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: and Jonathan Gannon and the coaching staff. Of course, the

86
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 1: entire organization has got to start building vertically. Somebody's got

87
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: to bring the two by fours in right now. The

88
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: foundation is there. Now you have to build, and you

89
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: have to build a house vertically.

90
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 4: By the end of the season, the Cardinals were the

91
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 4: third youngest team in the NFL. You know, the youngest

92
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 4: team in the NFL right now, Green Bay Wow. Second

93
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 4: youngest team the La Rams, who who started in three

94
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 4: and six and then won seven out of eight and

95
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 4: went into the playoffs and had that narrow loss of Detroit.

96
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 4: We'll get into that a little bit later. But now,

97
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 4: at least do you have the answer to a couple

98
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 4: of questions, what do you want to be as a team?

99
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: Yes?

100
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 4: Who is going to be part of this team? And

101
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 4: or who is needed? At least now you have some questions.

102
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 4: Where is a year ago? At this time all you

103
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 4: had were questions, Okay, what is this head coach all about?

104
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 4: Are these players going to be? And you don't really know.

105
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,799
Speaker 4: And I said this earlier this week and Cardinals underground.

106
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 4: You can agree or disagree, and I know you will,

107
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 4: but you don't truly know what you have as a

108
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 4: head coach and a general manager until the regular season starts.

109
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 4: Until you get regular season snaps.

110
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: Right.

111
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 4: Craig Dorsch barely made the fifty three by the end

112
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 4: of the year, He's one of your key contributors. So

113
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 4: you never would have expected that when the season started.

114
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 4: You need regular season snaps.

115
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: Yes you do, Pauli, there's no doubt about that. But

116
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 1: the foundation has been late. And when I say that,

117
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 1: once again, I'm talking about football players. They already know

118
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: they have a really good idea when they look at

119
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: the roster, and I'm talking about JG and Monty assin

120
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: Fort and the coaching staff. When they look at the roster,

121
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: they already know do you want that guy back? Do

122
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,479
Speaker 1: we want this guy back? And this guy proved he

123
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: belongs here. Whatever it is, it's football and football players ball.

124
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: When I talk about building vertical pull now, it's time

125
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: to go and identify the guys who are going to

126
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 1: be a good fit for the foundation that is that

127
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: has been laid. They're going to be a good fit,

128
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: but they're more talented. That's what you've got to do now.

129
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: Building vertical means going out and bringing more talented players

130
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,279
Speaker 1: in to build on the foundation that you have.

131
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 4: All Right, So there's Kramitt vertical, which is the run game.

132
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 4: Then there's build it, build it vertical. Okay, here's the

133
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 4: quarterback Kyler Murray. Just on the leadership from the top down,

134
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 4: a new head coach and a new GM.

135
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 7: It's like refreshing, just you know, to have you know,

136
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 7: guys up stairs that you know believe in it and

137
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 7: really to it and hold everybody accountable. You know, it

138
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 7: trickles down, you know, starts at the top. You know.

139
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 7: I think every great organization business understand you know, it

140
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 7: starts at the top and the guys really believe in

141
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 7: what they appreciate. You know. I'm very confident in what

142
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 7: we got going.

143
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 4: There's that word again, accountability. People ask about, Okay, well,

144
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 4: what is the difference with Jonathan Gann and maniasin for

145
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 4: That's the first word I start with. That's the word

146
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 4: that Michael Bidwell, the team owner, cited in making the

147
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 4: coaching change last off season that needed to be addressed,

148
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 4: that needed to be instituted do a greater degree. And

149
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 4: I think what you saw over the course of the

150
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 4: year was finding those guys willing to buy in to

151
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:43,119
Speaker 4: that accountability and those who are not were no longer

152
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 4: with the team.

153
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: Listen, I call it pads. Okay, I've heard you.

154
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 4: Know an acronym pads physical.

155
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: P It starts with people physical.

156
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 4: You're looking at me like I should write this down.

157
00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 1: I'm just saying exactly, Okay, for accountability, d for discipline,

158
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: S for smart. That's what you want on your football player.

159
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: You want them to be physical, accountable, discipline, and smart.

160
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: That's what you need. Pads is what they Now, you

161
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: know what, You've got guys who are checking those boxes.

162
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: Now you've got to go out and you gotta find

163
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: more guys to do that. And that's what manti ascid for.

164
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: That's why the draft, that's why having eleven picks in

165
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: this draft coming up is so critical because I guarantee you,

166
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,559
Speaker 1: whether the guy is a cornerback, whether he's he's a safety,

167
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 1: whether he's a center, a guard, he a full back, Paul,

168
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 1: whomever it may be that you're going to bring in

169
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: these doors, he's gonna check all of those boxes right there,

170
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: or they're not gonna bring him in. That's my hot tag, Paul.

171
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: They're not going to bring him in if he doesn't

172
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: check every one of those boxes. Whether it's a free

173
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 1: agent that you sign in the offseason, or whether it's

174
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: a kid you're going to draft out of Kansas.

175
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 4: Pads, physical, accountable, discipline, smart. Why do I have this

176
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 4: feeling that you have that on a white grease board

177
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 4: and they are woefully garage for your eighth grader vetter.

178
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: All right, it's actually on the computer. I see.

179
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 4: Well, look you I mean the Cardinals rookie class. To

180
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 4: your point, the Cardinals know what they want. They led

181
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 4: the NFL with eleven rookies that started at least one

182
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 4: game that combined for an NFL high sixty four starts

183
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 4: by rookies. And we all know that you can draft measurables.

184
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 4: But it's the person, it's the mentality. It's when Ammania

185
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 4: Sapport says, you know what, we met with Garrett Williams

186
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 4: and we knew after fifteen minutes he was our sort

187
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 4: of player. We met with a Michael Wilson and we

188
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 4: knew he had our sort of mentality. So up and

189
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,199
Speaker 4: down the draft class, look at all the contributions and

190
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 4: if you can stack another draft class this year like

191
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 4: you did last year. To your point, that is how

192
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 4: you build it vertical, correct, that's.

193
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: What you do. You build it vertical. You build on

194
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 1: the foundation. Now it's time to bring in more talent.

211
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 3: McBride fighting for the first down at the two. He's

212
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 3: still pushing the pile. Kenny pushes it into the end zone.

213
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 3: Put it dutch down. Trey McBride all muscle buyer's lap

214

00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 3: first down.

220
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,839
Speaker 1: We want to talk about a vertical game, and Trey

221
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: McBride went up and grabbed that ball. That was an

222
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: elite catch.

223
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 3: That was spectacular.

224
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 5: What a beautiful grab by mccride.

225
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 3: Nice catch by Trey McBride. McBride with that catch sets

226
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 3: the Cardinals single season record for most receptions by a

227
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 3: tight end. His second NFL season has been phenomenal.

228
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 4: And it continues no doubt. NFL is all about what

229
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 4: opportunity and when you get one, and sometimes you only

230
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 4: get one, you better seize thy opportunity. And Trey McClay,

231
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 4: as we call him, led the Cardinals not only in catches,

232
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:01,959
Speaker 4: he was second in receiving yards. He was top ten

233
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 4: in both categories in the NFL. And we have his

234
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 4: position coach here on this edition of The Big Red

235
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,840

238
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 4: it is.

239
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 8: I hope he doesn't hear that montage that you guys

240
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 8: just played with. I keep telling him he's only as

241
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 8: good as his last play. So yeah, tremendous year for

242
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 8: the guy.

243
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 4: I'm super proud of him, you know, It's funny because

244
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 4: it seems like the guys in that room keep him

245
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 4: in line and keep him humble, because every time I'm

246
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 4: over in that area of the locker room, they're giving

247
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 4: him the business.

248
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, they definitely do. They definitely do.

249
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 8: We've got a great room, you know. And Trey's a

250
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 8: humble enough guy himself. He's not gonna get away from him.

251
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 8: But you know, there's times that I remind him every

252
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 8: single day. And it was after his first one hundred

253
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 8: yard game. I told him, I was like, yeah, great game,

254
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 8: he had one great game.

255
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 5: Like who cares?

256
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 8: The NFL is about consistency, like you said, So I'm like,

257
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 8: you got to do it again, you know. You know

258
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 8: that's something in the stretch line. I'll come by and

259
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 8: tell him, Hey, great ones show up every day. It's

260
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 8: not just like on Sundays. So today we got to

261
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 8: work right there. He just and he he puts it.

262
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,080
Speaker 8: He put it, He puts the work in, and you know,

263
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 8: tribute to him. I'm just super proud of the guy.

264
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 1: So talk a little bit about the season that he had,

265
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: how he started the season and and where did he

266
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 1: grow the most.

267
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 8: Coach, Well, you know, coming into the season, obviously was

268
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 8: a little bit of a of a difficult spot for

269
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 8: him to be in, you know, being in the shadows

270
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 8: of Zach Ertz coming back off of his injury, and

271
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 8: then when Zach got hurt again and eventually went on

272
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 8: ir you know, Trey got his shot and he took

273
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 8: advantage of it, and I knew he would, and he

274
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 8: didn't say anything. He just kept working and kept his

275
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,839
Speaker 8: head down. So I'm super proud of him for that.

276
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 8: And I told him that at the time, like, hey,

277
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 8: your time is gonna come, and when it does, like

278
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 8: it's gonna be huge, and and it was, and he

279
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 8: wasn't too big for it. And he, you know, like

280
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 8: I said, he does the little things that it takes

281
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 8: to be great. And hopefully that continues. I think it will.

282
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: How did he.

283
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 4: Great out, you know, week in and week out, I mean,

284
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 4: because what we saw were some spectacular plays at times,

285
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 4: but we also saw a guy who was hard on

286
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 4: himself as a sideline reporter. It's amazing how hard he

287
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 4: was on himself at times on the sideline. So I'm

288
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 4: just curious, you know, what did you make and how much.

289
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: More is there?

290
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 4: How much more potential is there going forward? In his

291
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 4: game that was only year two.

292
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 8: Yeah, there's a ton of potential still there, you know,

293
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 8: and even the games that he you know, has the

294
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 8: stat lines that are super high like his his Really

295
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 8: his last two games I thought were his two best

296
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 8: games of the year because he didn't just do the

297
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 8: pass catching part of playing a tight end. And to me,

298
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 8: that's what a tight end is. It's not a one

299
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 8: dimensional I'm just a slow wide receiver. I don't block anybody.

300
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 8: I'm a dual threat. And everyone at the combine when

301
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 8: I ask him who's like the most impressive tight end

302
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 8: the league, they all say George Kiddle. Why because he

303
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 8: blocks and he catches the ball obviously, and he's not

304
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 8: always the go to guy in San Francisco, so you know,

305
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 8: and Trey really works to do both, and he can

306
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 8: do both, and he does both, and he's gonna stick

307
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 8: his head in there. And I mean, he had some

308
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 8: really good blocks in those last two games. I don't

309
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 8: know if they were the best stat line. I know

310
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 8: they weren't the best that he had this year, but

311
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 8: by far he grated wise as far as blocking and

312
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 8: just being a complete tight end, it was.

313
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 5: It was unbelievable.

314
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 4: Well, guess what. Wolf cited it during the broadcast, especially

315
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 4: as the season war on, and then the head coach

316
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 4: had as much to say about Trey McBride's blocking.

317
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 6: He's a complete player in his mind.

318
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: He would tell you this.

319
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 6: To take the next step of being a completely dominant

320
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 6: player at that spot. I think he wants that to

321
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 6: be a little more consistent. But he does an excellent

322
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 6: job in there with that improves every week.

323
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: And there you go. Jonathan Gann, Yeah, you know what, coach.

324
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 1: I tell him all the time. Do not just be

325
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 1: a pass receiving tight end.

326
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 8: I told him, I have heard that. I've heard you

327
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 8: say that on the radio before. Yes, I promise you,

328
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 8: if I have anything to do with it, he will not.

329
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: And I can tell that, and I can see why

330
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: he's gotten better because he's got a coach that is

331
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: demanding that wide Coach, would you ever lower the bar

332
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: for him? It's always raised the bar right. He's capable

333
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 1: of doing.

334
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 5: It, no question.

335
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 8: And it helps our team. Y is on a first

336
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 8: and second down, If we know that you're only going

337
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 8: to be in there to catch the ball, like, it

338
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 8: doesn't help us in the run, game winner, play action

339
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 8: and all that compliments itself. So you know that's the

340
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 8: biggest part as for me as a tight end coach

341
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 8: that I want out of a guy is to be

342
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 8: able to and willing to work at both.

343
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, for me, eleven personnel is such a

344
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: huge part of a lot of NFL teams today, even

345
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: in rundown situation first and ten second and one to

346
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:42,119
Speaker 1: six eleven personnel one back, one tight end, three wide receivers.

347
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: That to me, you've got to be capable of doing

348
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: both out of eleven personnel running the ball or throwing

349
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: the ball, and that tight end is so critical, as

350
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: you know, coach, in that eleven personnel, if you're going

351
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: to run the ball, you better have a true stud

352
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: tight end who can do both. Tray is that guy.

353
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 5: He is that guy.

354
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 8: And it's the same thing on third down when you

355
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 8: know you want to be in a seven man protection

356
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 8: and you got to bring in your jumbo tight end

357
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 8: or whoever that is. You know that the teams are

358
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 8: gonna a lot of times pressure more so, like we

359
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 8: actually had an audible against the Eagles and we were

360
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,679
Speaker 8: in a seven man protection. Tray came down, sealed the

361
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 8: end and we scored a touchdown. So yeah, you got

362
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 8: to be multi multi as a tight end for the

363
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 8: sake of the offense.

364
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 4: And hey, how about his tight end coach? Right, I mean,

365
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 4: if you're looking at his blocking, I would think you're

366
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 4: the guy to be mentoring and tutoring im. Considering your background.

367
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,879
Speaker 4: You look at your resume, tell us about just some

368
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 4: of your experience because you've been an on line coach

369
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 4: along the way as well, right.

370
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 5: M h yeah, I h.

371
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 8: The last two years I was working with the offensive

372
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 8: line as the assistant on line coach in Denver and

373
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 8: in Minnesota coach tight ends before that in Atlanta and

374
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 8: Tampa Bay, but former player, former tight end as well.

375
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 8: And you know that was also something for me as

376
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 8: a player, is you know, I was mainly a special

377
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 8: team's role playing guy. But you know, for a tight

378
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 8: end in this league, to be able to be in

379
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 8: there every single down, that's what I want and that's

380
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:11,199
Speaker 8: what you know.

381
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: I'm here to do special teams? Are you kidding me?

382
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 1: Right down? Don't get me started on that, coach?

383
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 7: All right?

384
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: I tell you can we bring the kickoff back coach,

385
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: no question, Oh my goodness, we gotta do something about.

386
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,880
Speaker 5: It, no question. That bothers me as well.

387
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,879
Speaker 8: And I talk a lot of special teams in the

388
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,159
Speaker 8: tight end room, like you know, especially the guys in

389
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 8: the roster. I'm like, listen, special teams is about effort

390
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 8: and just willing to go hit somebody in the mouse

391
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 8: And if you're not the starting tight end, you better

392
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:42,359
Speaker 8: be contributing on special teams.

393
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,880
Speaker 1: And on that note right there, tell us a little

394
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: bit about Elijah Higgins and where do you see the

395
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: upside for this guy? How much better can he get?

396
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 1: I'd like to see him put some weight on as well.

397
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,439
Speaker 8: No question, Yeah, I'd like to see him put some

398
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 8: weight on for sure.

399
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 1: Right how much? Coach? Like, what do you think?

400
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 5: I mean eight to ten? I think he could hold that.

401
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,120
Speaker 8: I think you know, you don't want him to lose

402
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:04,920
Speaker 8: his speed because he is a threat in the pass

403
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 8: game and he can run and he's got great ball skills.

404
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 8: The best part about him as a former receiver, he

405
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 8: doesn't have any bad habits as far as footwork and

406
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 8: inline blocking as a tight end. And so he takes

407
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,719
Speaker 8: on the coaching and does exactly what I tell him

408
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 8: to do, and it's it's awesome because he you know,

409
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,679
Speaker 8: really works at it. And he's willing and able to

410
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 8: stick his nose in there. And he had some great

411
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 8: blocks the last few games when he was you know,

412
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,479
Speaker 8: had his opportunity when we were in multiple tight end plays.

413
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 8: And I have no hesitation throwing him in the game

414
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,439
Speaker 8: if Trey needs arrest or whatever that may be. But

415
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 8: his ceiling is is huge, and I'm so excited for

416
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 8: him coming into his his you know, second year in

417
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 8: the league, next year, getting a full offseason working at

418
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,199
Speaker 8: the tight end position with me, and yeah, I'm excited

419
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 8: about him for sure.

420
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 4: Cardinals tight end coach Ben Steels our guest here on

421
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 4: the Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert

422
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 4: how much did both of those young guys learn from

423
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 4: Jeff Swain. I mean, dude, who has a lot of

424
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 4: years this league has a really good blocking coach.

425
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 5: Swain is what I call him.

426
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 8: He was invaluable in the room as a veteran voice

427
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 8: in the room. And you know, at one point, you know,

428
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 8: at the end of the year when he went on

429
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 8: IR I'm looking around the room and I got Trey

430
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 8: in his second year and then three rookies and I'm like, man,

431
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 8: this is I'm like and I'm and the guys they

432
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 8: were accountable, they did what they needed to do. But

433
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 8: to have a guy like Jeff in the room and

434
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:25,919
Speaker 8: he still came to meetings even though he didn't have to,

435
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 8: which was awesome. And he's always getting better, getting those

436
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 8: guys better as far as coaching points with footwork and

437
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 8: hand placement, you know, and at times when I'm not

438
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 8: able to talk to him, you know right away he

439
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 8: is right there doing it. So he was huge because

440
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 8: he showed those guys what it truly means to be

441
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,679
Speaker 8: a pro. It's not just showing up to practice and

442
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 8: then first one out the door. All the little things

443
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 8: it takes to get your body right, eating the right food, mentally,

444
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 8: making yourself aware and and on point with assignments and

445
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 8: and everything outside of football as well.

446
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: He's he's such a mentor for those guys. Coach. You

447
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:01,919
Speaker 1: ever talked to him in German?

448
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 5: No, but I I know he was. He was hit yees.

449
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 8: Psycho was obviously teaching him as Germany. So every once

450
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 8: in a while I'd ask him a question and they

451
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 8: throw out like some German and I'm like, what, listen,

452
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 8: I don't speak German.

453
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 1: Yet, but you played for Frankfurt, did.

454
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,719
Speaker 8: You I did, and I didn't learn that much German Frankfort.

455
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 8: But didn't you like the food over there? I love

456
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 8: the food. I learned ein beer bita. That was the

457
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 8: one thing.

458
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: One beer please, one beer.

459
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,159
Speaker 4: Well, hey, there's a lot of speculation Cardinals might be

460
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 4: going to Munich to take on Carolina.

461
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, that'd be cool, that'd be cool.

462
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 4: Bernard would be a big team leader on that broad trip.

463
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 5: There's no doubt he would be. He'd have to be

464
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 5: our chauffeur and getting this around.

465
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: So, coach, I have to ask you this because once

466
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,919
Speaker 1: again you're coaching tight ends and you coach and have

467
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 1: coached the offensive line as well. Now, that's that seems

468
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 1: like a symbiotic relationship. Getting a true stud tight end

469
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 1: a block like an offensive lineman would be fantastic, and

470
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 1: yet you still have the receiving component, as we all

471
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: know with Trey McBride, a guy like that, and other

472
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,479
Speaker 1: tight ends across the NFL. Right now, do you have

473
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: a preference as to what you like to coach, like,

474
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 1: would you like to just focus on offensive line or

475
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: do you like the fact that you get a little

476
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: duality at the tight end position?

477
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 8: I love the fact that I get that both sides

478
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 8: of the of the of the offense. Being involved in

479
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 8: the past game is obviously a little more natural than

480
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,239
Speaker 8: getting thrown into the O line room because of all

481
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 8: the details that they have and everything that they do

482
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 8: now at the tight ends doing everything pass protection, run blocking,

483
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 8: and obviously running routes and receiving. You are more involved

484
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,880
Speaker 8: than any other position on the field other than quarterback.

485
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,919
Speaker 8: So you have to know everything. So you know, for

486
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 8: me that the biggest part, hardest thing for me is

487
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 8: fine enough time during the meeting to cover everything and

488
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 8: getting them ready for acte. So you've got to be

489
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 8: creative doing that. But uh, you know, I enjoy doing

490
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 8: all facets of it for that reason. There were times

491
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 8: when I was working on the offensive line that'll be

492
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 8: looking down at seven on seven.

493
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: Like, hey, what are those guys doing?

494
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 8: But yeah, so I would say when I was with

495
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 8: the offensive line, I probably missed the past game a

496
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 8: lot more than than I probably should have.

497
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 5: But but yeah.

498
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 1: It's kind of like back when I played nineteen eighty five.

499
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 1: Of course, the full back, of course, we used to

500
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,360
Speaker 1: tell the center what to do, okay, just so you go.

501
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm telling you, speaking of telling everyone what to do,

502
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 4: let me ask you about Jonathan Gannon, your head coach,

503
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 4: because look at the Lions and Dan Campbell, look at

504
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 4: the Texans, Damiko Ryans. These are high energy guys. And

505
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 4: the more you read about how they brought in their

506
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 4: culture in those two programs to turn things around, I

507
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 4: see a lot of similarities to what Jonathan Gannon is

508
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 4: doing here with the Cardinals.

509
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: Would you agree with that?

510
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 4: And can you elaborate a little bit?

511
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 8: Yeah, And you know I've thought about this, you know,

512
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 8: since the end of the season too. Like you know,

513
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 8: I was with with Nathaniel Hackett and with the Broncos

514
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 8: last year for the you know, his first year as

515
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 8: the head coach for them, and the difference you know,

516
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 8: going into the end of the season and this year,

517
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,880
Speaker 8: like every team in the NFL is good.

518
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 5: Everyone knows that.

519
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 8: And to me, it's that one percent factor of your

520
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 8: culture that puts you over the top. And the feeling

521
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 8: at the end of this season was not like, man,

522
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 8: we just had a terrible season. It was okay, we

523
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 8: have room for improvement, for sure, and four wins is

524
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 8: definitely not the standard. But our head coach has set

525
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 8: set the culture and the players have bought into it.

526
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 8: So when you have that and you know that you're

527
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 8: getting the culture right, the football pieces are going to

528
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 8: fall online. So I'm I'm so excited for next year.

529
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 8: Like coming back to the office after a short break

530
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 8: the end of our last game, I was, you know,

531
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,919
Speaker 8: running to my car to get to work on Tuesday,

532
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 8: So it was we're excited as a staff.

533
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 5: And we've been already getting things rolling and you know

534
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 5: for offseason program whenever that starts.

535
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 1: Up, Coach, where do you think the offense can evolve

536
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 1: the most?

537
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 8: Well, you know, I think that we obviously need to

538
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 8: be able to play complimentary football on I'm just talking

539
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 8: just on offense as far as you know, being able

540
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,640
Speaker 8: to work early in the downs, as far as first

541
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 8: and second downs, so we don't we're not in these

542
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 8: third and long situations. And you know, as an offensive hole, like,

543
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 8: we got to just get better at all the.

544
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 5: Details of everything that we do.

545
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:29,919
Speaker 8: And we're we're close for sure, and going into an

546
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 8: off season program where it wasn't the first year. Is

547
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 8: our staff just our staff getting to know each other

548
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,439
Speaker 8: and getting to know how we work together and the

549
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 8: scheme and our players going into the offseason the second

550
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 8: year in the scheme, that's going to be huge, huge,

551
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 8: And then going into training camp is our second year

552
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 8: to where we're not just day one install anymore, like

553
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 8: we can speed it along and work on technique, fundamentals,

554
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 8: the things that actually matter on the field, so that

555
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 8: all of that combined and really is a staff like

556
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:03,919
Speaker 8: everyone looks at themselves first and how we can make each.

557
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 5: Other better and then the players better, because that's the

558
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 5: ultimate goal.

559
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 1: Accountable mm hmm.

560
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what you know. Jonathan Gann had a

561
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 4: saying early in his tenure kram at vertical, and we

562
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 4: use that to describe the run game that ended up

563
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 4: fourth overall in the NFL. Tight Ends were a big

564
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 4: part of that. And it was amazing how many teams

565
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 4: after they're done playing the Cardinals said that was a

566
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 4: physical game, even like the Steelers have the game. We

567
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 4: got out physical, we got our butts kicked. The Eagles

568
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 4: said the same thing. So we're definitely looking forward to

569
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,920
Speaker 4: having a full season of Kyler and everyone has the

570
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 4: season under their belt right and that offense evolving, and

571
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 4: if we end up going to Munich, then you know what,

572
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 4: you're gonna be as a guy who played Germany, you

573
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 4: know you're gonna be leading the way as well, So

574
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 4: that'd be fun.

575
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 5: That would be a cool experience.

576
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: We enjoyed it.

577
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 4: Coach, Thank you, coach.

578
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 5: All right, thank you guys.

579
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 4: There you go. That is Ben Steel, Cardinals tight end coach.

580
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,439
Speaker 4: We continue with a big red rage presented by santan

581
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 4: Ford and Gilbert. We are santan Ford.

582
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:01,400
Speaker 1: This could be the game.

583
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 3: Fourth down and one hand off high tower, running right,

584
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,400
Speaker 3: get to the outside and he's got the first down

585
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 3: of the forty five and pushed out a bounds throws

586
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 3: a slant of fits caught at the thirty, inside them

587
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 3: twenty five and down at the twenty three. It's a

588
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 3: game of about eighteen in the first down for the Cardinals.

589
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald is literally trying to will this team to victory.

590
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 1: Right now.

591
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 3: Pumps right, throws back to the left, high Tower, caught

592
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,160
Speaker 3: it to ten, cuts left to the five high tower

593
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 3: to the goal.

594
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 4: Line, headed put down the Cardinals.

595
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 3: Great take the land with two fifty three to go,

596
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 3: picked up by docket.

597
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 4: Don't get inside the ten.

598
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 3: Sets in the Cardinals half shot the world right for

599
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 3: true the Cards have done it there showing the Super

600
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 3: Bowl forty.

601
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 4: Ten still get chills literal thole. I mean, on this

602
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,719
Speaker 4: day in two thousand and nine, Cardinals beat the Eagles

603
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 4: thirty two to twenty five to advance to Super Bowl

604
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 4: forty three. Standing job on the mic, Dave pash Ron

605
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 4: Wolfley was in the booth. Unforgettable game in Cardinals history.

606
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 4: In fact, the Lions win this past weekend reminded me

607
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 4: a lot of the Cardinals win in that game and

608
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:16,479
Speaker 4: that NFC championship. In that Lions fans did not want

609
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 4: to leave that stadium. They were still in their seats,

610
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 4: soaking it all in, not wanting it to end. As

611
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 4: Jared Goff, the last guy off the field, did every

612
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 4: interview out there, and as he came running off, he

613
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 4: got a standing ovation and the stadium was still packed

614
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,399
Speaker 4: thirty minutes, almost after the game had ended.

615
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: Paully, just imagine the last time they won a playoff

616
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: game nineteen ninety two.

617
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 4: Paul I covered the team right after that. I covered

618
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 4: those Lions teams in like ninety three and ninety four

619
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 4: eight in the league. Yeah, and I'm still in disbelief,

620
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 4: I really am. I mean, you're you're talking about. You know,

621
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 4: one of the great cutaways was forget Taylor Swift over

622
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 4: the weekend was the eighty nine year old season ticket

623
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 4: holder of the Lions who had out season tickets first

624
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 4: sixty six seasons. He was at the nineteen fifty seven

625
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,560
Speaker 4: NFL title game and the next year he bought season

626
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 4: tickets because he was on the bandwagon. He's been a

627
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 4: season ticket older ever since.

628
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness.

629
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 4: So it is just amazing to watch that Lions turnaround.

630
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 4: And Wolf I made a comparison. I said, you know

631
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 4: what an ideal best case scenario for the Cardinals and

632
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 4: Cardinals fans would be that Detroit and Dan Campbell is

633
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 4: a case study for the Arizona Cardinals. They won three

634
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 4: games their first year. They started the second season one

635
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 4: and six. Do you know ever since they've won twenty

636
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 4: one out of twenty eight games.

637
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 1: It's incredible.

638
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 4: They they got the O line fixed, the quarterback is intact.

639
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 4: They got that premiere pass rusher in Aiden Hutchinson, right,

640
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 4: I mean, they finally have a dialed in and they

641
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 4: have that same sort of energy and physical mentality that

642
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 4: Jonathan Gannon has instilled in this team.

643
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 1: You know that it's interesting, BALI because the Tampa Bay

644
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 1: Detroit game, I think that is gonna be a good game.

645
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be There's a lot of people

646
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: that think Detroit playing home, of course, and the Tampa

647
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,479
Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers kind of being a little bit of a

648
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 1: Cinderella team. I think for the most part here, I

649
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 1: think they think that Detroit is gonna roll. And maybe

650
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 1: they do. I don't know, Paully, but I think this

651
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:19,240
Speaker 1: is going to be a really physical, physical game between

652
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: the Lions and the Buccaneers. And you know Todd Bowles, Yes,

653
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers they throw the ball.

654
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 1: They're not a really good running team by any stretch

655
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 1: of the imagination. They love to throw the ball. Mike

656
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 1: Evans is going off, of course, as we all know,

657
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield has played exceptionally well. And I will tell

658
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 1: you the Lions defense number twenty seven in passing yards

659
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: per game allowed and number thirty in passing yards per

660
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: play allowed. They will give up some yardage out in

661
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 1: the field. And that's why I think this is gonna

662
00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: come down to just how much they can the Lions

663
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 1: control Mike Evans and Baker Mayfield throwing the ball. That

664
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: to me is what this game is going to boil

665
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: down to. That in the physicality of the Detroit Lions

666
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: attacking that front seven of the Bucks.

667
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 4: You know what, I bet on Baker Mayfield when no

668
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 4: one else is betting on Baker Mayfield, when everyone else

669
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 4: counts him out. He's at his best. He's that guy

670
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 4: who just he channels the haters and he turns it

671
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 4: into things like this when you don't think he's capable,

672
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 4: that's when he pulls it out. I mean, you know,

673
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 4: he's the first Tampa quarterback in franchise history with three

674
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 4: hundred plus yards and three touchdowns in a playoff game.

675
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 4: And how many drops do the Buccaneers have. Mike Evans

676
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 4: himself could have had two deep shots that he dropped

677
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 4: in that game. So I'm with you, I think that's

678
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 4: going to be more of a game than most expect.

679
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 4: And then you take this Niners game, and we obviously

680
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 4: know the forty nine ers real well, and they go

681
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 4: in with brock Party who led the NFL on passer rating.

682
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 4: They got Christian McCaffrey back four different weapons. We had

683
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 4: more than a thousand yards based on what you saw

684
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 4: in Green Bay because they went into Dallas and the

685
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 4: D and Big D stood for detonate. I mean, they

686
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 4: destroyed the Dallas Cowboys. Yeah, and Jordan Love was like

687
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 4: shit in that game.

688
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 1: You know, since the twelfth week of the season, Jordan

689
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 1: Love has been one of the highest rated quarterbacks in

690
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 1: the National Football League in terms of quarterback rating. How

691
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 1: well he has truly played from that point on. Now,

692
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: the first half of the season was really up and

693
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 1: down for Jordan Love. But can you imagine can you

694
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 1: imagine if in fact Jordan Love is going to be

695
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: the guy for the Green Bay Packers going forward for

696
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: the next decade plus? Once again, is it possible, Paul Oh?

697
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: The Green Bay Packers go from Brettfarv to Aaron Rodgers

698
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 1: to now this new kid, Jordan Love, And is it

699
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: possible they'd have almost forty years a franchise quarter.

700
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 4: A staggering that is staggering, But based on what we

701
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 4: say on that playoff win, it's definitely a possibility. In fact,

702
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 4: you know what, I have it right here. Well to

703
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 4: your point about him leading the league almost in so

704
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 4: many different categories. Over his last nine games, he had

705
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 4: twenty one touchdown passes and one interception. Yes, they won

706
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 4: the coin toss and took the ball and then they

707
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 4: crammed it down the Cowboys throat. They went twelve plays

708
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 4: seventy five yards in a touchdown drive. The lasted more

709
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 4: than seven minutes. They led forty eight to sixteen against

710
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 4: the Cowboys team that had won sixteen in a row

711
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 4: at home.

712
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: But now playing the San Francisco forty nine Ers in

713
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 1: San Francisco. Of course you have to wonder, is this

714
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 1: where Cinderella Slipper shatters into a million pieces? Right now?

715
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: I do believe there is a way for the green

716
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: Bay Packers to somehow, some way beat the forty nine ers,

717
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 1: but it involves a lot of turnovers and a lot

718
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: of takeaways and playing very very well. But to me,

719
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: the matchup of this game is going to be the

720
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers and their offensive line. Number four in

721
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 1: sacks per attempt allow. That's really really good, PAULI, that's

722
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 1: elite in the NFL. Number four in sacks per attempt allowed.

723
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,720
Speaker 1: The green Bay Packers offensive line. And here it comes

724
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 1: Chase Young, Here it comes Nick Bosa. Here comes the

725
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 1: front seven, maybe the best front seven. To me, it

726
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: is the best front seven in the football universe against

727
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,799
Speaker 1: that offensive line. Can they run the ball? Can they

728
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 1: just to keep Jordan Love in a balanced offense? That

729
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 1: is a path to an upset. But I think of

730
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 1: all the games that could be a blowout, this is

731
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 1: the one the forty nine Ers could blow them out.

732
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 4: If you walk into the forty nine Ers locker room

733
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 4: right now. I wonder if there's a certain quote that's

734
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 4: up on the old whiteboard. Because the defensive tackle for

735
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 4: the Packers, DeVante Wyatt, said they have been studying the

736
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 4: Baltimore game film where brock Perty threw four picks in

737
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,879
Speaker 4: that Christmas Night more okay, okay, he said, and I'm

738
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 4: quoting now, we just got to get pressure on him.

739
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. When he's throwing the ball

740
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 4: against pressure, it's off rhythm. I watched it a lot

741
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,439
Speaker 4: on film. When d Lyman, just get pressure into him,

742
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 4: he's always throwing off or it's behind, or it's overthrown,

743
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 4: or it's short. There'll be a lot of picks or

744
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 4: stuff like that. So when you get pressure on him,

745
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:17,280
Speaker 4: it's a guarantee we'll get a turnover.

746
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 1: End quote. Woh, Okay, Can I talk to you please,

747
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,280
Speaker 1: it's time for you to stop talking.

748
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 4: So now we'll see if Green Bay indeed can get

749
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 4: pressure on brock Purdy. Because you're right, the Niners have

750
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,239
Speaker 4: one of the best offensive lines in the business and

751
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 4: that will be intriguing to watch, no doubt about that. Hey,

752
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,440

Speaker 3: In this atmosphere.

769

Speaker 4: Oh We're gonna be rock, no doubt. Tony Basselli, Tom McCarthy,

770
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 4: Westwood one third straight year, Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes meet

771
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 4: in the postseason, bought that Bills have him at home

772
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 4: after you had a Chiefs team that had hosted the

773
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 4: AFC Championship five straight years and the Bills here it

774
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 4: is Ron Wolfley, Buffalo Nate up here on the Big

775
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,800
Speaker 4: Red Rage presented by santan Ford and Gilbert. The Bills

776
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 4: in home playoff games since nineteen seventy are fourteen and two.

777
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 4: I still don't know how the fans got in their seats.

778
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 4: There was so much snow an hour before kickoff. Incredible

779
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,120
Speaker 4: is the stories of Bills fans going and grabbing shovels

780
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 4: from the stadium crew and just shoveling out their own aisles. Yes,

781
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:16,279
Speaker 4: and then having to stand, mainly because you couldn't even

782
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 4: sit in a seat.

783
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 1: But here's the here's the thing I didn't understand, Paul.

784
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: If you're shoveling out the isle, where are you throwing

785
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:25,280
Speaker 1: the snow? You're you were throwing it in the island

786
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 1: in front of you or behind you, And they're doing

787
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 1: the same thing. I don't know. It was crazy.

788
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 4: There were enough people who made a little like cooler

789
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 4: in front of them. They're storing their beers in there.

790
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 4: It was outstanding. You know, they're keeping the ice cold literally.

791
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 1: I honestly think of all the games this weekend coming up,

792
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 1: the four games coming up this weekend, the Sunday night game, No,

793
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 1: not about it with the Kansas City Chiefs going to

794
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,880
Speaker 1: the park as I like to call it, Orchard Park

795
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 1: to play the Buffalo Bills. There it is, right, Paully,

796
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the marquee game is not. No, it is.

797
00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:00,839
Speaker 4: I mean, you know it's there's enough bad blood in

798
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 4: that series. There's enough star power two teams, right, I

799
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,840
Speaker 4: mean you got the pedigree and the defending Super Bowl champions.

800
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 4: The Bills right now are red hot, the way they

801
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 4: ended the season, the way they're playing right now, the

802
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 4: home fans who have wanted a piece of the Chiefs

803
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 4: for all this time. So I mean, you tell me,

804
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 4: and the way, just the way Josh Allen is playing

805
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,280
Speaker 4: right now, and the way he's running the ball as well.

806
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know the storyline And I'm not big on

807
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 1: the storylines. I'm big on the process. I just want

808
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 1: to see the competition. I want to see the offense,

809
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: the defense. The Buffalo Bills are running the ball so

810
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 1: much better than what they have. I think that's more

811
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 1: than anything else. Is one of the reasons why they

812
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: have a chance of actually winning this game. The Kansas

813
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:48,319
Speaker 1: City Chiefs defense is so much better, Paul. It is

814
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: so much better number eighteen and number twenty four as

815
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: a matter of fact, and rushing yards per game and

816
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 1: rushing yards per play allowed. That is the only area

817
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:03,080
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs defense has struggled. Everywhere else they

818
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 1: have been nails. Can the Buffalo Bills turn it back

819
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 1: and run the ball like they did a few years ago.

820
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,680
Speaker 1: If they can be that team, I think they win

821
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,000
Speaker 1: this game. But it's gonna be I think this is

822
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: one for the ages.

823
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,319
Speaker 4: What's interesting is, and Josh Allen said this quote, we're

824
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:23,720
Speaker 4: a step behind already, and he was noting and citing

825
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 4: how the Chiefs are going to have two more days

826
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 4: of rest after they beat Miami in those sub zero

827
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,399
Speaker 4: temperatures and because they had to delay the game one

828
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 4: more day. So we'll see how much that.

829
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 1: I'm not that crazy about that. To PAULI I'm not

830
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 1: crazy about the fact they're playing games on Monday night.

831
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 1: I'm not. I don't think they ought to do that.

832
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:48,480
Speaker 1: I think it does create a disadvantage for the team

833
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 1: that does play on that Monday night. But this is

834
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: my favorite weekend right here, PAULI not only that when

835
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,240
Speaker 1: you think of the other game in the AFC, think

836
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:00,919
Speaker 1: of the quarterbacks that are playing in this game.

837
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 7: C J.

838
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 1: Stroud of course, and then Lamar Jackson Houston and the

839
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,919
Speaker 1: Ravens ball. This is this is gonna be a good

840
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: game as well.

841
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 4: C J. Stroud, I mean it is. I mean you

842
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 4: have c J. Stroud and Damiko Ryans just combined to

843
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 4: become the fourth team ever to win a playoff game

844
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 4: with a rookie quarterback and a rookie head coach. And

845
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 4: first thing I think of is going into Baltimore, and

846
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,439
Speaker 4: I think of what the Ravens did to the forty

847
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:30,360
Speaker 4: nine ers, and I think of what rokwand Smith and

848
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 4: Patrick Queen said after the game that you know what,

849
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 4: teams don't want to play our brand of physical ball.

850
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,399
Speaker 4: And so we can talk about Lamar, and we can

851
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 4: talk about c J.

852
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 1: Stroud.

853
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,279
Speaker 4: I'm wondering about that Baltimore defense and if they're going

854
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 4: to be too physical for Houston to handle because their

855
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 4: all line at best is average.

856
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, you're right about that. There's no doubt. There's

857
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,920
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens defense, the best scoring defense in the National

858
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:57,200
Speaker 1: Football League. Not only that too, Paul, this is a

859
00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:00,840
Speaker 1: team that is physical John Harbaugh. Of course, this is

860
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:06,240
Speaker 1: a guy that demands physicality. The Ravens pass defense number

861
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,880
Speaker 1: six and passing yards per game allowed, number one, in

862
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:14,520
Speaker 1: passing yards per play allowed, number one, the Baltimore Ravens.

863
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:17,359
Speaker 1: And I think right now, you think of Nico Collins

864
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: of course, and CJ. Stroud and the combination that they've

865
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 1: been Remember the name Kyle Hamilton, Paul, Okay, the strong

866
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 1: safety for the Baltimore Ravens. Kyle Hamilton what Isaiah Simmons

867
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:34,319
Speaker 1: should have been. He's six ' for pounds. The guy

868
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:38,320
Speaker 1: can run. The guy's an excellent tackler in the open field.

869
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:43,239
Speaker 1: And not only that, four interceptions on the season. Four interceptions.

870
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 1: That's a nice season right there for safety. A guy

871
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: that was a Pro Bowl player. Kyle Hamilton, to me,

872
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: is the guy that could really play a key role

873
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,840
Speaker 1: in the Baltimore Ravens beating the Houston Texas.

874
00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,960
Speaker 4: So in yards per pass allowed, Baltimore's d is No.

875
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,879
Speaker 4: Number one, and I did not know that. Well, what's

876
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 4: intriguing there is c J. Stroud has to be a

877
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,359
Speaker 4: top three quarterback this year in the downfield passing game.

878
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 4: His ability to hit receivers in the second and third

879
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 4: level is elite as a rookie. We saw it in

880
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,400
Speaker 4: person mid season when the Cardinals went to Houston. It

881
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 4: is remarkable. He does not hesitate to pull the trigger

882
00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 4: and go downfield.

883
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:26,240
Speaker 1: Yes, and Paul, think about this. Last week the Houston

884
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:32,359
Speaker 1: Texans ran forty four plays. That's it, forty four plays. Wow,

885
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 1: they scored forty five points in forty four plays. Now

886
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 1: you know they got a little help of course right there, yes,

887
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 1: with the pick six, but still Yeah.

888
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,360
Speaker 4: Here's what's interesting is the numbers for CJ. Stroud and

889
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 4: Jordan Love were almost identical. Sixteen to twenty one, both

890
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,960
Speaker 4: of them three touchdowns, both of them zero interceptions, both

891
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 4: of them same passer rating one fifty seven point two,

892
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:55,800
Speaker 4: and they are separated by two passing yards. Do you

893
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,200
Speaker 4: see the tweet by JJ Watt? They got like ten

894
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 4: million likes. Their Pro Football Focus grade wasn't even close.

895
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 4: Jordan Love got ninety two point five.

896
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 6: C J.

897
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:07,879
Speaker 4: Stroud got seventy seven point eight.

898
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:09,080
Speaker 1: Like what?

899
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:13,800
Speaker 4: And JJ Watt tweeted out, quote, this is what happens

900
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 4: when you grade football players with an algorithm and people

901
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 4: just because their numbers were identical and they are completely

902
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:26,200
Speaker 4: opposite Pro Football Focus grades.

903
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:29,719
Speaker 1: Yeah you know this. I'm with JJ Watt. And now,

904
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 1: by the way, okay, but I wouldn't even say the algorithm.

905
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:36,440
Speaker 1: I'd say who's actually grading? Right, That's what I would

906
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 1: like to know right here. But again, I think the

907
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:43,399
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens had a bonafide shot of winning the whole thing.

908
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 1: I think they do, Paul It.

909
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 4: Okay, here's my question though, Lamar Jackson most likely your

910
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:50,439
Speaker 4: NFL MVP for a second time.

911
00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 1: This all time.

912
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:55,480
Speaker 4: Playoff record is one in three as a starting QUARTERBACKSS

913
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 4: and the Baltimore offense has never scored more than twenty

914
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 4: points in a post season game during Lamar's career. Is

915
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 4: he playoff equipped? Is the pressure? Because there's zero pressure

916
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 4: on Houston right now. They're so far ahead in the curve.

917
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 4: Stinking Cardinals. Oh my gosh, we paid for it right

918
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 4: with that draft pick that was never supposed to happen.

919
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 4: Houston had the worst winning percentage the last three years

920
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,399
Speaker 4: combined of any team, and out of nowhere they won

921
00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:22,279
Speaker 4: a playoff game.

922
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 1: Yes, here's my bloodiest game of the week as well, Paul.

923
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 1: Just so you know, you said a lot of good

924
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,479
Speaker 1: stuff right there, Poly, but this is the bloodiest game

925
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 1: of the week. You got the Ravens, the number one

926
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:38,800
Speaker 1: rushing offense in the National Football League against a team

927
00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,799
Speaker 1: that is number two and yards per attempt allowed, the

928
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,399
Speaker 1: Texans number six and yards per game, rushing yards per

929
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 1: game and number two and rushing yards per play. This

930
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: is going to be a bloodbath on the line of scrimmage.

931
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:53,920
Speaker 4: By the way, everything Demiko Ryans has done in Houston

932
00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:57,280
Speaker 4: is exactly what Jonathan Gannon is instituting with the Cardinals.

933
00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 4: That energy, that physicality special Thanks the Cardinals tight ends

934
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 4: coach Ben Steel once again for Jim al Mahondro, Cody Fincher,

935
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 4: Ali Narini, Bron Wolfley on Paul Calvic. This has been

936
