Here Queen 10 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: go one hand to catch and a touchdown. Oh baby, Mommettfield. 11 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: Here's Craig Grioloud, three time Pro bowler Kyle Vandenbosch, and 12 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: thirteen year NFL veteran Drew Stanton. So we have gathered 13 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: two of the best minds in the game, one on offense, 14 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 1: one on defense, and gentlemen, for the next hour, you 15 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: are going to tell everyone how the Cardinals solve the 16 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: slow start issue. Who wants to go first? I'm looking 17 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: for who else is in the room, because I don't 18 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: necessarily see the brightest minds in the game, but crews 19 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: looking in the mirror, soothering him at all, he realized 20 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: exactly who I was referring to. Yes, it's tough, man. 21 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: There's there's a lot of things that need to be 22 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 1: cleaned up, and I'm telling you these things are hard 23 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: to correct midstream, and when the season's going, you know, 24 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: it's all week we heard to a player into a coach. 25 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: We've got to get off to a faster start. We've 26 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 1: got to start the game better. We've got to move 27 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: the ball on offense, and we've got to get stops 28 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 1: on defense in the first quarter. And it didn't happen. 29 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: So I guess you're right back to where you were 30 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: last week in preparation, figuring out a way to get 31 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: the chains moving, eat up some clock, get some points 32 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: on the board early in a game, and not play 33 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: from behind. Cardinals trail ten to nothing at the end 34 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: of the first quarter, second time in three games they've 35 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: been down double digits in the first fifteen minutes of 36 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: the game. Cardinals lose of the Rams on Sunday twenty 37 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 1: to twelve. Drew, what did you see in that game? 38 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: In week three? Well, I think that it's not quite 39 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: time to hit the panic button. As the outside world 40 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: probably wants to do or could do. They're very correctable 41 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: mistakes that are being made. And it's one guy on 42 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 1: a given play here, a different guy there. It's not 43 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 1: just a quarterback issue. It's not just a wide receiver 44 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: or tight end or offensive line or running back issue. Right, 45 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,399 Speaker 1: it's one of these things that the route distribution isn't there. 46 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: The other things you know, just aren't adding up to 47 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: winning football. Even look at the very start of the game. 48 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: It's a third and two. You take a low percentage 49 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: throw to the right. Aj Green on Jalen Ramsey, a 50 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: decent matchup. But then you look and you see you 51 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: have a great advantage, advantageous coverage to go one to 52 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: two inside out by hitting the ball with zach Ertz 53 00:02:57,880 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: and then Hollywood Brown. You don't do that, you get 54 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: off the field. Okay, next series, you can't get into rhythm. 55 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: It's third and eight. Justin Peugh gets beat very quickly, 56 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: Kylie gets out of the pocket, tries to extend the play. 57 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,399 Speaker 1: That's six plays and you have gone nowhere, and they've 58 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: already scored twice on their opening two possessions and go 59 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: on and score a third. So you start looking at that. 60 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: You start understating, Okay, let's just stay the course. Stay 61 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: the course, stay the course. They do a good job 62 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: of that. They get in the red zone again. Situational 63 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: football is so imperative in this league. And Wednesday you 64 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: start talking about third downs. Thursdays when you start talking 65 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 1: about red zone, and in the red zone they have 66 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,839 Speaker 1: not beneficient. So they've got to be able to nip 67 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: that in the butt. They have a chance to get 68 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: a touchdown there on second and five. Throw the ball 69 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: at the zach Ertz. He just doesn't quite come up 70 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 1: with it. The margin of air is so small. If 71 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: they make that play, it's seven to thirteen. Completely different 72 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: mindset as you go throughout the game. The plays are 73 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: there to be made. They just need to make them, 74 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: and these guys will. I'm confident in that. I'm confident 75 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: that these guys will take the next step in doing that. 76 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: It's just a matter of showing up and actually executing. 77 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: It is early still the first month of the season, 78 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: though that changes this week when the Cardinals head to Carolina. 79 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: But the bottom line, through these first three games, it's 80 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: been the same, falling behind early. Here's the quarterback, Kyle 81 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: the Murray I wish I had the answer right now. 82 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: Oh sure, that's not winning football. Make it tough on ourselves. 83 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you see the rest of the game as competitive, 84 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: but that first quarter is just you know, can't get 85 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: anything going. It's just this is bad baffotball. Cardinals have 86 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: been outscored in the first quarter thirty one to nothing. 87 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: They are the only team not to score a single 88 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: point in those first fifteen minutes. Look at the first 89 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: half of these first three games, fifty six to thirteen 90 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: is the deaf ches just one touchdown and two field goals. 91 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: We know this team likes playing with the lead. That's 92 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 1: been the case since Cliff Kingsbury arrived with Kyle the Murray. 93 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: They have a difficult time coming back in games. Last 94 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: week against the Raiders. Notwithstanding, here is the head coach, 95 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury. You saw the long drives and just held 96 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: us the field goals on those, and then we got 97 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: to be precise and excut at a high level and 98 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: take what they give you and not get tired of 99 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: doing that. And then we can't get behind like that 100 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: because when you get one dimensional on your chaseing like 101 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: we have the first three games, your menu gets cut 102 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: in half, and you can't really dictate the terms of 103 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: the game like you'd like to. Four scoring drives all 104 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 1: resulting in field goals, and three of those four drew 105 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: sixteen or more plays that choose up clock. It keeps 106 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: the opponent Matthew Stafford in this case, on the sidelines, 107 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 1: but it makes it difficult one when you're not scoring touchdowns, 108 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 1: and two you have to be darned your perfect to 109 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: keep the chains movement exactly. We've talked about it before. 110 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: It's great to have those drives, but you want to 111 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: end those drives with touchdowns. And when you do that, 112 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: defenses have started to figure that out. They want to 113 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: make Kyler earn everything he gets. They don't want to 114 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 1: give them some big player. They try it and keep 115 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: a very soft zone. The Rams at a tremendous job 116 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: of inserting safeties, you know, changing the post nap picture 117 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: to try and confuse Kyler and make him earn everything. 118 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 1: And then he got down there in the red zone 119 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: and they tightened everything up. They went from a two show, 120 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: they went to a single high zone. They did a 121 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: nice job with their red zone game plan, and people 122 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: will continue to do that until the Cardinals figure out 123 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: how they're going to do it, because again, a defense 124 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: will let you drive all the way down the field 125 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: and they'll delegate to Kyle on this. They'll let you 126 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: go all the way down the field, and if they 127 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: can hold you to field goals all that that's a 128 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: win for the defense every single time. If you have 129 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: a team as good as they are offensively, with all 130 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: the skill that they have on this offense, if you 131 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: holding the four field goals, I'm sure every defense will 132 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: take that weekend a week out. Well, you look at 133 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: the total numbers, Kyle, three hundred and sixty five yards 134 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: of offense, but eighty one plays, and the scoreboard says 135 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: you scored twelve points to Drew's point. Now, all of 136 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 1: a sudden, that's the defense saying we'll give you all 137 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: kinds of real estate, but you're not getting into the 138 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,359 Speaker 1: end zone. Yeah, it's a debate. Do you take what 139 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: a team gives you, which is exactly what the Cardinals did, 140 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: or do you dictate what happens? Do you force some things? 141 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: Do you try to make put the defense on its 142 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: heels and get the ball in your playmaker's hands down 143 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: the field, And you know that's what we're missing and 144 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 1: to do point. You know, we used to have a 145 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator get up in front of room and he'd 146 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: love to talk statistics. And you know a lot of 147 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: times a defense is measured on total defense, how many 148 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: yards you're given up throughout a game. And he said, 149 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: over and over, the only statistic that matters as points, 150 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: and it's it's you know, the Rams, while they didn't 151 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: look dominant on defense, they were giving up you know, 152 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown, they were giving him a cushion. They were 153 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: playing deep at times, playing soft coverage. They they executed 154 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: their game plan to a t. Once they got a lead, 155 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: they were not going to give up that quick strike touchdown. 156 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: They're going to keep everything in front and force you 157 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: to execute play after play after play, which you know, 158 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: for the most part, is as painful as it was 159 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: to watch. The Cardinals took what the Rams were giving them, 160 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: but they just couldn't get that explosive play they would 161 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: give them an opportunity to get back in the game. Yeah, 162 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: every offense typically has a stat right, you want a 163 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: point for every minute of possession. Right. That was one 164 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: thing that you always highlight as you go over the 165 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: goals of the game. Kyle was talking about defensively what 166 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: you do and the goals. You want one point per 167 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: minute that you have possession time, and that will equate 168 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: to a win more times than not, because that lets 169 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: you know if you are going on these long drives, 170 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: you are putting seven points on the board, which is imperative. Again, 171 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: you can do all of these things between the twenties. 172 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: It's what you do when you get inside the twenty 173 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: to be able to do it. And sometimes you have 174 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: the ability to hit those home run shots and don't 175 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: even have to get inside the red zone as well, 176 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: which has not been showing up either at this point. 177 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: Cardinals longest play this season was the Greg Dortch thirty 178 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: yard catch, and that happened in the second quarter. Cardinals 179 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: trailed at halftime thirteen to six, still a very winnable 180 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: ball game because the defense was getting stops and the 181 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 1: Rams weren't playing all that right either, so there were 182 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 1: plays to be made, they just weren't made. According to 183 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: the quarterback, there was plays there. If you go back 184 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 1: and watch the game, there was plays both sides of 185 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 1: the ball where we you know, we got to make 186 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: those plays. I mean we didn't, so you know, those 187 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: costs you you know, take points away, score points, things 188 00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: like that. When you get those opportunities, we got to 189 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: got to make those plays. Drop passes, receivers not running 190 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: their route fully and then the quarterback not making the 191 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: correct reads and not getting out of bounds. Especially on 192 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: that final drive. There was just too much time taking 193 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 1: off that clock, at least to me, When you get 194 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:15,599 Speaker 1: the ball at the three yard line with six or 195 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: forty to go, you're down two scores and it takes 196 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,839 Speaker 1: you five and a half minutes to get a field goal, 197 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 1: let alone a touchdown. So a lot. But you see 198 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: Drew when you watch it back that there are things 199 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: that are little things, but add up a bunch of 200 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: little things now that a sudden you've got a gigantic 201 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: problem exactly. And that's what it takes to win in 202 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,319 Speaker 1: this league is to nip those little things in the butt. 203 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: You've got to be able to do that. There has 204 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: to be a sense of urgency with six and a 205 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 1: half minutes to go, say hey, this game is not 206 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 1: over with yet. We can go out and they proved 207 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: it last week they're capable of doing that. But when 208 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: you turn that film on right, you see poor route distribution. 209 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: You see, you know, different things that are not conducive 210 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: to what Cliff is teaching, to what these guys are doing, 211 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: to what's being taught. You know that, because that doesn't 212 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: look like an NFL style of offensive times. And yes, 213 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: they've dealt with injury, but again it's it's one mistake here. 214 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 1: It's a physical mistake, it's a mental mistake, it's a 215 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: technique mistake. All of these things are plaguing them and 216 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 1: it's not just one guy, as we talked about, it's 217 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,839 Speaker 1: a collective whole. So there has to be a concerted effort. Yes, 218 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: the slow starts they are have been somewhat of an issue, 219 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: but all of that can be remedied. Again, each and 220 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: every week, you've got to go out and prove yourself. 221 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: They get another opportunity with a tough road battle because 222 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 1: this Panther's defense, they're feisty and they'll get after you. Cardinals, again, 223 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: we talked about it now for a second straight week. 224 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 1: What do you do to overcome those slow starts? Well, 225 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 1: Clip Kingsbury has talked about a lot of things. Yeah, 226 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: we've talked through, you know, as many things as you 227 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: can talk through. I think about what we could change 228 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: or do differently practice wise, stretch walk throughs, all those things, 229 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: and at some point it just has to click for us. 230 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,599 Speaker 1: You know, I don't think there's any magic answers the 231 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: sub guys showing up and being ready to go and 232 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: not regressing back to that once we get to figure 233 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: it out. I like what you said, Kyle as far 234 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: as dictating. Kyle Murray takes the field and the office says, 235 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: this is what we're going to do. You script your 236 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: first twelve to fifteen plays, and you stick to that 237 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: strip script no matter what the defense shows you or does. Yeah. 238 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: And to me, one of the biggest disappointments was their 239 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: inability to establish the run game, especially again the way 240 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: the Rams were playing. They were given some cushion playing 241 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: their safeties deep. You've got to take if you're taking 242 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: what they give you. The run games should have had 243 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: more success, and a lot of the issues with their 244 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 1: you know, first quarter problems, their first half problems was 245 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: you're you're getting behind the sticks, and it wasn't because 246 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: of penalties. It was because of being ineffective on first down, 247 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: getting in second and ten, second and eight. You've got 248 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 1: to in order, I mean, they were fine in the 249 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: second half moving the ball, but in the first half 250 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,439 Speaker 1: they just couldn't because they were in second long, and 251 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: then they would get in third and long and just 252 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: couldn't get in those manageable type situations in the later downs. 253 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: Eighteen third downs the Cardinals faced on Sunday, they only 254 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: converted six, and half of those eighteen was third and 255 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,559 Speaker 1: eight or longer. That's tough. Well, four or five on 256 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: fourth down two, I mean, you go for that many 257 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: times as well. It's gonna be a long day. Run 258 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: eighty one plays. You should be able to have more 259 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: than just twelve points on the scoreboard. Did not happen 260 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,479 Speaker 1: on Sunday.

We'll discuss 268 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: that next here on the Arizona Cardinals Radio network. Murry 269 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: back to pass wide receiver screen to the laft bottle 270 00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: of the far side of the forty five. At the 271 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: forty loose is proud of the thirty five and out 272 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: of bounds on the far side. They spot him out 273 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: inside the thirty at the twenty seven. That's a gate 274 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: at twenty art case Brown by far his best game. 275 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: I know he's capable. I know what he was gonna do. 276 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: You try fourteen balls today. Good things happening when you 277 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: get the ball. You know the guys that make place, 278 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: and you know he made places. Holloway Brown targeted seventeen times. 279 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: Seventeen times. Hey, that's what I was expecting week one. 280 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 1: We had to wait until Week three, but that quarterback 281 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: wide receiver chemistry on the field for the first time, 282 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: really the first time this season, unfortunately, came in a 283 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: twenty to twelve defeats as the Cardinals lose yet again 284 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: to the Los Angeles Rams. We welcome me back here 285 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: the Cardinals Red Sea Report presented by sik Your Ticket 286 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: to Great Seats Craig Real and Drew Stanton and Kyle Nibosch, 287 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 1: and let's discuss Hollywood's career day. The fourteen catches for 288 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty yards, just ten yards to catch. 289 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: But if there's something that you hope now all of 290 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: a sudden you found that in the absence of DeAndre Hopkins, 291 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: that number one wide receiver, that's what was expected week one. 292 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,719 Speaker 1: Here it is in week three. Yeah, I mean it's 293 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: a work in progress, right of how you plug somebody 294 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: in the offense. You get Rondell More back, and then 295 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: eventually you're getting DeAndre Hopkins back. That's going to be 296 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: a problem for teams when you have to go against them. 297 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: Whatever this record is, it that hopefully they can sustain 298 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: some success offensively, start faster, put points on the board, 299 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: be better in situational football. But that was definitely a 300 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: bright spot. And you see what he brings to the table, 301 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: right he was always in the right spot. You go 302 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 1: back and watch that film. When I was talking about 303 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: some problems within the concept of things and spacing all that, 304 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: there was zero when it came to him. He played hard, 305 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: He played tremendously well. And if he catches that long 306 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: shot too, you're talking about over two hundred yards right 307 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: at that day, you're talking about a monster day. But 308 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: he's capable of that. He's doing all of these things 309 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: and against the defense like that, you lull them to sleep, 310 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: you take the underneath, you do all these things. Again, 311 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: fifty eight attempts is way higher than you probably want 312 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: to be as a passer in this league. But it's 313 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: a systematic approach to it, and it's keeping a guy 314 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: like that engaged throughout four quarters to break open a game. 315 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: He's capable of doing that. The seventeenth target was the 316 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: fourth and four incomplete pass that stalled the drive that 317 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: the Cardinals were unable to converts. But going back to 318 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: that deep shot, Kyle, if you connect on that, this 319 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: game changes and he goes back to there's a handful 320 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: of plays that you can always look back and Kyle 321 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: Rue mentioned on Sunday that he threw it too early 322 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: and Hollywood had step maybe even three steps on the 323 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: defender and that would have been an easy touchdown. Yeah, 324 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: that's honestly, he's a great receiver and he didn't have 325 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: the drops. You know, Basically, he showed how strong hands 326 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: he had on I think it was his first catch 327 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: of the game, the only first down they had in 328 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: the first four drives. So you know, that's the type 329 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 1: of player he is. But what makes him special is 330 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: that elite speed, him being able to stretch the field. 331 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: You know, you like to see more of those shots 332 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: taken throughout the course of a game, so you have 333 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: that threat. You know, let's just hope that that that's 334 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: the only miss they have, because, like you said, in 335 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: a game that was pretty ugly for the most part, 336 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: that one play could have made a huge difference and 337 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: could have got the team back in the game and 338 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: giving them an opportunity to win. So you're hoping that 339 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: they continue to, you know, take what the defenses give, 340 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: but at least take a couple of those shots each game, 341 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: because those are the type of game changing type plays 342 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: that this offense is missing at this point. The Cardinals 343 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: top ten longest plays from Sunday, Six of them involved 344 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: passes to Hollywood Brown, and post game, it was Hollywood 345 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: speaking with Paul KLVISI if I told you before the 346 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: game you ran eighty one plays as an offense and 347 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: had four field goals, what would your reaction be, Man, 348 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: I think we run that many plays. We gotta square touchdowns. 349 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: I mean, the field goals helped put us in position, 350 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: but As offense, when we get down there, we want 351 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: to we want to play put it in the end zone. 352 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: Anything changed once you got near the red zone, things 353 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: bogged down. What was the challenge? Just a lack of execution. 354 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: We got down there with ease, and once we got 355 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 1: down there, we kind of like stalled out. And you 356 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 1: can't do that in this league. I mean, great, great offenses, 357 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna put it in the end zone. That's what 358 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: we're striving to do. Two words we heard all week 359 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,719 Speaker 1: fast start. But you guys are still searching for that 360 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: fast start, aren't ye? Definitely um, And so a week 361 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: by week process. I mean, nobody we wanted to happen overnight, 362 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: but nobody said it will. So as an offense, we 363 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: just got to keep breaking memory serves. Midweek, you told 364 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 1: the media and I was standing right there that you 365 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: felt like you got into a zone quote end quote 366 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 1: with Kyler in the second half of the Raiders game, right, 367 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: Does that that's you guys sort of pick up where 368 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: you left off there a little bit? Yeah? Definitely, I 369 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: mean I felt like, you know that Raiders game, you know, 370 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: we were feeling it, and it's kind of today felt 371 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: the same way. I mean, it was on the same page, 372 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: just attacking the defense, taking what they giving us. Key 373 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 1: phrase to me and that postgame conversation was Hollywood saying 374 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: lack of execution, and we had a number of callers 375 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: on Cardinal Talk discuss the play calling, and I pushed 376 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: back Drew and said it was more execution falling on 377 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: the players not being what they're either where they're supposed 378 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 1: to be, finishing off blocks, catching balls, making right decisions. 379 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 1: It's easy to point the finger at the general manager, 380 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: head coach, coaching staff, but there's got to be more 381 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: accountability in that locker room as far as players, and 382 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 1: I liked what Hollywood had to say, making it seem 383 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: it was on us as opposed to what was coming 384 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,360 Speaker 1: from the sidelines. Yeah, I think it's tremendous because it's accurate. 385 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 1: It's not going to get flipped by the coaches. It's 386 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: not going to get flipped by Steve Kimes. Steve Kime's 387 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 1: work is done for the most part right Hill, mix 388 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: and match and try to overcome injury. The roster is 389 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 1: set in place, the core group of guys are going 390 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: to be here. So this is not a Steve Kim issue. 391 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: This is not a Cliff Kingsbury issue. Like I said, 392 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 1: schematically watching them, they're extremely sound on what they're trying 393 00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 1: to do and try to win football games. You know, 394 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: some times you're reading your progression, you'd like to have 395 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 1: a couple more shots in there. Yes, that's you know, 396 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,199 Speaker 1: there's the adage of they're not going to cover what 397 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: you don't throw. So just by simply throwing those deep 398 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 1: shots and throwing those deep balls, that will help take 399 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 1: a little bit of pressure off them, scoot to the 400 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: secondary back so they don't feel like they compendit years back. 401 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,919 Speaker 1: But at the same time, it comes down to execution 402 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: and that situational football. That third down is impaired of 403 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: the red zone so important because the field is condensed right, 404 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: you can't take anything for granted. And usually the best 405 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,159 Speaker 1: teams in the red zone are the ones that can 406 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: run the football year and you're out in the NFL 407 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: making a conservat effort to really put yourself in a 408 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 1: position on first and second down to give yourself a 409 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 1: manageable third down, and when the opportunity comes, you have 410 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: to make the plays. That's on the players, point blank, 411 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: that's on the players to do that. That is not 412 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: a Cliff Kingsbury thing by any means. You've pointed to 413 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: the run game call a couple of times, not only Sunday, 414 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,880 Speaker 1: but here as well on the Cardinals red zea report 415 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 1: presented by your Ticket to Great Seats, and you look 416 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: at the number of carries. James Connor only had teen, 417 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: you know, Benjamin five, Darryl Williams just one. But there's 418 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 1: also been a lot of talk about, Okay, Kyler, you 419 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: have these wonderful gifts that are called your legs, and 420 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: we didn't see that until the fourth quarter? Now, was 421 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 1: that by design? Was that because of the opponent? But 422 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: that's what separates Kyler Murray from every other quarterback in 423 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: this league. Otherwise he's just a drop back passer. And 424 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 1: I think the Cardinals drafted someone that was a dual 425 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: threat as opposed to just stand in the pocket and 426 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 1: throw the ball. Yeah. I think that's also part of 427 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 1: the offense dictating the pace of the game. I'm telling 428 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: you as a defensive player. Defensive coordinators around the league 429 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: they had nightmares watching that Las Vegas Raiders at the 430 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: end of the game. They're saying, how do we stop 431 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: this guy? How do we contain this guy, because you 432 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: can do everything perfect. You can get a pass for us, 433 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: you can have the perfect coverage dialed up, and he 434 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: can still make the difference with his legs. And I think, 435 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I've heard the stat thrown around this week, 436 00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: but I don't think the Cardinals have won a game 437 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: with Kyler Murray at quarter back when he rushes the 438 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,400 Speaker 1: ball less than five times. And so I think you do, 439 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: you know, you have to be smart about it. Look, 440 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 1: he's your franchise quarterback. You cannot put him at risk. 441 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: But it keeps defenses guessing and off balance and making 442 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: adjustments they wouldn't normally make when he's running the ball 443 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: early in the game, and when he's chewing up yardage 444 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: I mean, and not just scrambling, not just buying time 445 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: for his receivers get open. We've seen time after time 446 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: when he runs the ball, not scrambles. When he runs 447 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: the ball, he choose up yardage in a hurry, and 448 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: he is smart enough to get down to slide, to 449 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: step out of bounds. And even if it's not you know, 450 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 1: a twenty yard run, if it's a three four yard 451 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: run and he steps out of bounds, the defense is 452 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: going to have to adjust. They're saying, look, there he's 453 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: gonna run the ball. We don't have enough defenders to 454 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: also tackle the quarterback when he keeps it or when 455 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: they make this when they have a running back blocking 456 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: for him. So I think it'll be a big part 457 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: going forward is just early in the game showing defenses Look, yes, 458 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: this guy is going to run the ball and he's 459 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: going to get yards, and so you're gonna have to 460 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: account for that throughout the course of a game. It 461 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,880 Speaker 1: doesn't need to be seven, eight, nine, ten carries, but 462 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: the threat of the run, especially early in the game, 463 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: to establish that, Hey, I can at any moment take 464 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: off and all of a sudden get a couple of yards. 465 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 1: So now you've got the defense on their toes. And 466 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: I don't think that happened through the first three quarters 467 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: of the game. Yeah, it didn't. I don't think Lamar 468 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,479 Speaker 1: Jackson like the fact that he said that he's the 469 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: only one in the league that can run like that 470 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: though only one of the NFC. Here we go. I 471 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,439 Speaker 1: knew you had some kind of answer for that. Yeah, 472 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: I mean, look, maybe there is something that you take 473 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: an honest look, everything's on the table right now for 474 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,199 Speaker 1: this team, they've got to try and figure out what 475 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 1: they can do, what they're successful at. Again, I think 476 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 1: it's the number of attempts by James Connor, by Eno Benjamin, 477 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 1: by Darryl Williams, because look at that. We talked about 478 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: thirty as the magic number. Most of the time you're 479 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: going to get bogged down. You're going to be able 480 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 1: to do that. You lean on these guys, you try 481 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 1: and push forward. We talked about how you can negate 482 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: what Aaron does so well, it's by sticking with that 483 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 1: run game, because most run games are really prevalent in 484 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: the third and fourth quarter when you lean on that 485 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: offensive line and all of a sudden they break some 486 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: big one. I mean, that's what the rushing average goes 487 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,439 Speaker 1: through the roof, because again three point three, that's a 488 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: decent run average. And if you get some long chunk 489 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,959 Speaker 1: run like we saw the week before in Vegas by 490 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: Darryl Williams, then it becomes oh, wow, we're over one 491 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,719 Speaker 1: hundred yards. We're doing this. You feel better about it. 492 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: I personally don't think having design runs for Kyler Murray 493 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: is the answer within this offense. And maybe they're even 494 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,239 Speaker 1: saving or for the red zone because it becomes more 495 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 1: dynamic in the red zone. Right that zone read. But 496 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 1: people are so good at defending it out because once 497 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 1: the copycat league, that is the defense, they figure it out. 498 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, they're scraping backers. You're doing these 499 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: things and you don't want to trade lance type of situation. 500 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: You don't want to lose him to a third down 501 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: and meaningless short like even seeing the speed option where 502 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: he's trying to capture the outside shoulder of the defensive end. 503 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 1: I'm sitting there and I'm saying, no, do not do 504 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 1: that right. I want to see him get his five rushes, 505 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: And I think that's great. He is too good of 506 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 1: a passer and he can do a lot of different things, 507 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: and you have different dynamic guys that it will come. 508 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: But I would not search that avenue. It's a great 509 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 1: debates because you're looking for something and is at the spark. 510 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: He shouldn't need to run in order to get this 511 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: offense in gear. But when it bogged down, bogs down, 512 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: you gotta figure out some way to get it going. 513 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: Of course, it would also help if the receivers, whether 514 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: that's a running back, wide receiver, or tight end is 515 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: ready for the football. A lot of drops. In Sunday, 516 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray addressed that postgame, you gotta be away playing 517 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: with me like I mean, it's no matter what the 518 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,439 Speaker 1: play is. You know, I got free reading to do whatever, 519 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: get into whatever. So when you're sleep and um, you 520 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: don't think you're getting the ball, it's you know, we 521 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 1: can't play like that. We everybody's gotta you know, everybody's 522 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 1: gotta be lit up, you know, in the game, locked 523 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: in and we just gotta be better. And we will be. 524 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: But again it's frustrated we lose, like you could you know, 525 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 1: I couldn't play better, could be in the game. I 526 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: believe the number was five five drops in the first half. 527 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: And it's across the board. It's veterans, it's young players. 528 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 1: It's the little things, Drew that you go back to one, 529 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 1: eliminate one of those drops, two of those drops, and 530 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, maybe you get that first down 531 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: and now you're playing with some momentum. That rhythm in 532 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 1: the offense that Cliff keeps talking about is there but 533 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 1: a drop ball and all of a sudden, it's like, okay, 534 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: well now what do we do? Yeah, I mean it 535 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: is a game of momentum, and we talked about it 536 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 1: before and we paired these two thoughts together. Right if 537 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: they get a touchdown by Zach Er, it's there at 538 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,919 Speaker 1: seven to thirteen, they get that home run shot to 539 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown, and now that game is a different dynamic. 540 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 1: So they're there, they're they're right on the cusp of 541 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: being able to do it. And from a quarterbacks perspective, though, 542 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: why you saw seventeen targets start going to Hollywood Brown. 543 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: He's got trust on him. There's some guys right now 544 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 1: that when he's talking about that comment that he doesn't 545 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: fully trust because he doesn't aid know where they're going 546 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: to be, or that if they are quote unquote asleep, 547 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: that you've got to be awake to be reliable. There's 548 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: also part of that's on the quarterback of saying, Okay, 549 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: I need to have my eyes and my feet in 550 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:10,199 Speaker 1: the right place to make the throws, to get the 551 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: ball out, to do all these things knowing there's a 552 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: good pass rush coming across from you and you have 553 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: to be so sound and knowing, okay, this is where 554 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: the ball is going to go, go through your read 555 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: your progression and get the ball out and don't just 556 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: freestyle and throw up a fifty fifty ball that means 557 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: nothing on a very imperative third down or red zone 558 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 1: possession outside of Hollywood Brown seventeen targets, Greg Dorge ten 559 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: with nine catches, zach Ertz ten with seven catches, And 560 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: there is clearly a trust between Kyler and Greg Dorge 561 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 1: early on this season, Dorge getting those reps. Because Ron 562 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: del Moore remains on the sidelines, there's potential there is 563 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: a chance he is available this week. If not this week, 564 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: then according to the coach, definitely in Week five when 565 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles visit. We have hit halftime here on 566 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 1: the Cardinals Red Sea Report presented by Seek Geek Your 567 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: Ticket Too Great Seats, talking about the Cardinals loss on 568 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 1: Sunday to the Los Angeles Rams twenty to twelve. When 569 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: we come back the defense, there were plays made, there 570 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: were plays missed, some big plays as well. Craig Rayol, 571 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: Drew Stanton and Kyle and Ibosch. We do it every 572 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,360 Speaker 1: Tuesday at eleven am right here on the Arizona Cardinals 573 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: Radio Network. Stafford to Stafford's great drop basing pressure gets 574 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 1: hit now side arms it over the middle, complete for 575 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 1: first out of the thirty five yard line to cap 576 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: How about Stafford's getting away from a sack Savan Collins 577 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: couldn't make the play A Savan Collins had him the 578 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 1: rights right there and Stafford just circled out of it. 579 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: We missed that, Sacond. I think it would have been 580 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: four to three and outs in a row, and that 581 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: would have been a big turning point. Had Stafford He's 582 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 1: fun out and made a great play there, but gave 583 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: up some some big plays you'd want to lemonade. But 584 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 1: if you can hold a team right that to twenty points, 585 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: you got to feel good about your chances to win. 586 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: A third and eleven converted near sack by Zavan Collinson, 587 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: as you heard head coach Cliff Kingberry say, yeah, it 588 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: would have been another three and out. Instead, the Rams 589 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 1: go eight place seventy five yards cam Akers with a 590 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:24,360 Speaker 1: fourteen yard touchdown run with the Rams in front, twenty 591 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,360 Speaker 1: to nine, and they would go on to win twenty 592 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 1: to twelve. As we welcome you back here to the 593 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 1: Cardinals Red Seat Report presented by Siki Your Ticket to 594 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: Great Seats. Greig Reel and Drew Stanton and Kyle Inebosch 595 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: putting the spotlight here, Kyle on the defense, and yeah, 596 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,959 Speaker 1: you hold the Rams to twenty points, but a handful 597 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: of plays again, that near sacks certainly was the turning 598 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 1: points in that game, because all of a sudden you 599 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: gave a fresh set of downs, new life to Matthew 600 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: Stafford and company. Yeah, it was a problem for a 601 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 1: lot of reasons. One was they were able to put 602 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 1: together a nice drive, get a touchdown and eat up 603 00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: more o' clock when you're trying to get back in 604 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: the game. Um, but yeah, it's just it's a microcosm 605 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 1: of how this game wents. Missed opportunities, missed plays. Um, 606 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 1: you know, you'd love to see Zaven Collins as a 607 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: as a free rusher, an opportunity to sack the quarterback, 608 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: make that play. M it happens. You know, Zavin Collins 609 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: is playing his way into becoming a better player. The 610 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: more reps he gets, the better he's gonna be. M 611 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,959 Speaker 1: He just he's gonna get there. But it's it's unfortunate 612 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: because you're still seeing instances of him, um, you know, 613 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 1: not being in the right gap, not playing with good technique, 614 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: not using his hands on blockers. Perhaps having his eyes 615 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: in the wrong place. It seems to be getting better 616 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: and better and the experience is going to help him. 617 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: Look um, he's what you've got. You're gonna need him. 618 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: And in the only way for him to continue to 619 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 1: make progress and become the player that we all expect 620 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: him to become is is to be in these types 621 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: of games. So um, but it's it's just unfortunate that 622 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 1: m he missed that because that would have been a 623 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: huge play in a in a big opportunity for this team. 624 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: The other big play as far as the defense, came 625 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: back in the first quarter drew and you look at 626 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: the Cooper cup jet sweep the twenty yard run in 627 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: which completely surprised all eleven defenders. And I'll raise my 628 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 1: hand as well because that was well executed. The timing 629 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: between the handoff was unbelievable because by the time most 630 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: of the Cardinal defenders realized where was he was at 631 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 1: the five yard line scorning a touchdown. Yeah. I mean again, 632 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: we know that there is great scheme within that Los 633 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: Angeles Rams organization and what Sean McBay brings to the table, 634 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 1: there's so many tendency breakers. Everything that they do. You know, 635 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 1: it's remarkable, and they're trying to find ways to get 636 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: the ball in cooper Cups hands anyway possible. Right. He 637 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: is such a dynamic player that they're doing everything, and 638 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: most defensive game plans are there to try and stop him. 639 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: So you lull him into sleep, You put him on 640 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: a jet sweep, thinking that's just going in motion, and 641 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: all of a sudden he's got the ball and he's 642 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: around the corner and they've captured the edge. That's the 643 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: problem with going against an offense like that that they 644 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: can score from anywhere on the field and they are 645 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: scheming things up of having covered two beaters in there. Right, 646 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: Most teams that are make you earn it are going 647 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: to sit in some kind of middle of field open, 648 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: whether it's covered four, cover two, some kind of variation 649 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: of that. And that's what this defense does. Vince Joseph's 650 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: defense has built that way to try and do that. 651 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: But when you can get outside and you can get 652 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: that edge, it's a rap. Like we saw Cup though 653 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,719 Speaker 1: was limited held to just four catches for forty four yards. 654 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: Outside of that jet sweep. He was really quiet the 655 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 1: entire game. So there were bright spots on that defense, 656 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 1: And when we talk about Zaven Collins that drive that 657 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: Cam Akers scored, not only did he miss the sack, 658 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: but he also heard his shoulder on that drive. According 659 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: to the head coach, Collins should be okay for this week, 660 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: which is good because it brings up the topic of 661 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 1: inside linebackers. Daven Collins played much of that game. Isaiah 662 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: Simmons played more percentage snaps than he did the week earlier, 663 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 1: but just sixteen snaps on the field and left once 664 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: again Kyle questioning, what are you doing with the first 665 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 1: round draft pick who in the training camp was called 666 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: the starbacker and was going to wear the green dot 667 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: call the defense this year. Yeah, and it's difficult to 668 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: figure out what the issue is. He is one of 669 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: the best athletes on the field. He has a propensity 670 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: for making big plays, big plays that help you win games. 671 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: He's got a note for the ball, he hits hard tackles. 672 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 1: So it's difficult to understand what exactly is going on 673 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: because everything you heard coming from the coaches was he 674 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: was challenged. He responded before the Las Vegas game, had 675 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: his best week of practice, didn't get many reps in 676 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 1: the game, and then the following week the same thing 677 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: as he's really dialed in. He's practicing better than he's 678 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: ever practiced, and you know, you get fifteen snaps again. 679 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know if it's more on Isaiah 680 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 1: Simmons or more on the coaches. You know, when you 681 00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: have a player with his type of ability, you've got 682 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 1: to get the most out of it, and you've got 683 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 1: to get him on the field because you know, through 684 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: three games, you know, at times this defense has looked okay, 685 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 1: has given this offense a chance to get back in games. 686 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: But you're not seeing a lot of playmakers right now. 687 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: And that's what Isaiah Simmons is for the most part. 688 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: He's a playmaker, and so you're left to just assume 689 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 1: that it's his consistency of being in the right place, 690 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: doing the right thing, playing the right technique, play in 691 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: and play out. And you know, you've also got to 692 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 1: wonder if he had a little bit too much on 693 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 1: his plate to start the season and they're pairing it 694 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 1: back now and trying to build it back up to 695 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 1: where they can get him on the field more. Again, 696 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: sixteen snaps for Simmons. Here's Cliff Kingsbury on how Simmons 697 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 1: played during those sixteen snaps. I thought he had another 698 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: good outing. Yeah, he's continuing to get more and more 699 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: and improving in that role. So that's two weeks in 700 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 1: a row that that played at a really high level 701 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 1: and I expect him to take in you that trend 702 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: going into this week's game in Carolina. On the defensive side, 703 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 1: Richard Lawrence, who has played very well and was not 704 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: on the field during that last scoring drive of the 705 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 1: Rams in which cam Akers ran it four straight times. 706 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: Lawrence hurt his hand on that drive, had surgery, will 707 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 1: not play this week. I'm not sure exactly his status 708 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 1: moving forward past this week. But speaking of this week, 709 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 1: head coach Cliff Kingsbury looking forward to another opportunity and 710 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,280 Speaker 1: again getting back to five hundred. I'm on a Carolina. 711 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: I know what we've been through to this point and 712 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: where it can go, and if we can get to 713 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 1: two and two in the first month despite everything we've 714 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: had going on, I think it put us in a 715 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: good spot and we want to get better in a hurry, 716 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 1: and Carolina has had our number. It's going to be 717 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: a tough game, we understand that, but that's our focus 718 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 1: is just continuing to improve and like I said, trying 719 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 1: to play a game where we're not chasing the entire time. 720 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,439 Speaker 1: A little bit more on the Panthers in our next 721 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: segment here on the Cardinals Red Sea Report. But you 722 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,359 Speaker 1: can only look one game ahead if you're the head coach. 723 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: And I liked a little bit of Bill Belichick in 724 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: him there. I'm saying, I'm onto Carolina as opposed on 725 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,320 Speaker 1: them on to Cincinnati. But you can't look back. You 726 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 1: just now you got these next couple of days to 727 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 1: get ready and figure out all right, first three weeks 728 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 1: during the books, now it's this week. Yeah, I mean 729 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 1: it's a week to week business, right, And their Montre 730 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 1: Lastro is one to Oh that's how they got to 731 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 1: the record they had, and we're ascending so quickly as 732 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: that was what they were doing. They were also making 733 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: plays on defense, and Kyle talked about that there's not 734 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 1: been any splash plays or you know, turning points in 735 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 1: the game where they really just took over. And again 736 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 1: there's complimentary football, they're situationalball. There's all of these things 737 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: defensively that you want to see and understanding what you 738 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 1: need to do, and it's hard, right, everybody's searching Frances. 739 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,799 Speaker 1: It's not for lack of want to, But at the 740 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,839 Speaker 1: same time, the leadership, the men in that locker room, 741 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: the men on that side of the ball, have to 742 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,280 Speaker 1: say enough enough. I mean, Isaiah Simmons only play sixteen 743 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 1: snaps and get out snapped by Ben Neeman is not 744 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: something that's going to be a recipe. And last week 745 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 1: we were sitting this question to say, well, was this 746 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 1: just a message being sent to Isaiah? Well, no, it's 747 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 1: clearly a work in progress at this point, which is 748 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 1: very concerning considering where we're at this point in the 749 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: season with where he was drafted and athleticism. I mean, 750 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: find a way to get the guy on the field 751 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 1: and have him be a difference maker, and that falls 752 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 1: into coaching. But at the same time, you've got to 753 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: find the marriage and the balance of it because moving forward, 754 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: you need guys like that to be out there. There's 755 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: no questioning the talents of an Isaiah Simmons, but something 756 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: he's keeping him off the field. He's one of your 757 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,720 Speaker 1: best eleven. But I think there's more of a trust 758 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:41,320 Speaker 1: issue if the coaches are believe that we've got someone 759 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: else that can get those snaps as opposed to your 760 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,279 Speaker 1: first round draft pick. There's no question there's something going on, 761 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: and we don't have the privilege of knowing what it is. 762 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: But whatever it is, they've got to try to find 763 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 1: a way to overcome it. Better happen in a hurry. 764 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 1: Cardinals on the road this week, and then in Week 765 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,720 Speaker 1: five they'll host the Philadelphia Eagles. Interested in that game 766 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,960 Speaker 1: or the remaining home games. Single game tickets are available 767 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: right now Adaisy cardinals dot com slash tickets for more information. 768 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: When we come back, as promise, the Carolina Panthers in 769 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: the spotlights and once again we get Kyler Versus Baker 770 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: Part three. This is the Arizona Cardinals Radio network. Kurt 771 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 1: Warner takes a knee and the Arizona Cardinals won't play 772 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: for the National Football Conference Championship next week. Cardinal fans, 773 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: do you believe this football team? An incredible performance in Charlotte. 774 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: They throttle the Panthers thirty three to thirteen. The Arizona 775 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 1: Cardinals won't play for the right to go to the 776 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and they would go to the Super Bowl 777 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: hosts the Philadelphia Eagles. The following week, we flashed back 778 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,800 Speaker 1: to two thousand and eights and gentlemen. That is also 779 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:08,319 Speaker 1: the last time the Arizona Cardinals won in Carolina, but 780 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: that was the postseason. They have not won a regular 781 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 1: season game in Carolina since two thousand and two. For 782 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: whatever reason, Drew this Panthers team has the Cardinals number 783 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: regardless of location, head coach, or quarterback. Oh, I know, 784 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 1: I still remember the NFC Championship game. I don't want 785 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 1: to talk about it. Okay, Kyle, your thoughts on the 786 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: Carolina Yeah, it's you know, the thing with this defense is, 787 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,959 Speaker 1: in spite of everything, you know, they haven't really even 788 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 1: played the run game well this year, and this is 789 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 1: the first premiere, you know, game changing type running back. 790 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: You're looking at a Christian McCaffrey that struggled with injuries 791 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: the last couple of years, but for the first time 792 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 1: since twenty nineteen, is coming off of back to back 793 00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 1: hundred yard rushing games. So you know, to me, the 794 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: key to this game is two full one. We've got 795 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 1: to be better in the run game. We've got to 796 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: be consistent. We cannot let him get going because he 797 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 1: will kill you. And then we've just got to find 798 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 1: a way to generate more pressure on the quarterback. I mean, 799 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,880 Speaker 1: we're coming off of back to back weeks where the 800 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 1: conversation before the game was we've got a compromised offensive line, 801 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,800 Speaker 1: an offensive line that's struggling. We have an opportunity to 802 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: get some sacks, get some pressure. And in spite of 803 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 1: you know, having the highest blitz percentage in the NFL, 804 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: we've got two sacks through three games, So you know 805 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 1: they've got the Cardinals have got to get some wins 806 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 1: up front. Have the ability to not only get pressures, 807 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 1: but get sacks with just a four man rush, and 808 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:44,920 Speaker 1: that will change a lot of how the games are 809 00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: going for the defense. With McCaffrey, not only the running, 810 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,239 Speaker 1: but he has a team best ten catches. He's been 811 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 1: targeted fourteen times. So if you're a defensive coordinator, vanch 812 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 1: Joseph and that is the number one offensive weapon that 813 00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield has. Kyle, what do you do to slow 814 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,880 Speaker 1: down a McCaffrey. You're not going to stop him, but 815 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 1: you've done a good job the past two weeks. Son, 816 00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: DeVante Adams and Cooper Cup Now it's a running back 817 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: versus a wide receiver, but you've taken away the number 818 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,839 Speaker 1: one option each of the past two weeks. Yeah, you know, 819 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: to me, this is where you need Isaiah Simmons. I mean, 820 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 1: he is the type of athlete that can shadow a 821 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 1: guy like Christian McCaffrey, because, like you talked about, he 822 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,240 Speaker 1: might line up at wide receiver, he might catch screen passes, 823 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 1: he might run a wheel route. He can change the game, 824 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 1: not just running the football, but with receiving and catching 825 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: the ball out of the backfield. So you need somebody 826 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,839 Speaker 1: that can not only tackle him in the open field, 827 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,800 Speaker 1: but somebody that can cover him wherever he's going to 828 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 1: go in the variety of routes that he might run, 829 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 1: either in the backfield or split out. We mentioned Baker 830 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 1: Mayfield three touchdowns, one interception, the Panthers one and two. 831 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 1: They beat the Saints at home last week to end 832 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:58,879 Speaker 1: a nine game losing streak. Drill, get your thoughts on 833 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 1: Baker here in a moment. But first, Greg Olsen, this 834 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 1: week's guest on the Day Pass podcast, broke down Baker Mayfield. Yeah. 835 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 1: I just think with the weapons that he has, Christian 836 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,319 Speaker 1: McCaffrey and Dj Moore and you know, Robbie Anderson and 837 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 1: you know they got some they have some weapons. Offensively, 838 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: They've improved their offensive line, and now it's up to 839 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 1: the quarterback. It's up to Baker to run the show. 840 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 1: And he hasn't played great this year. I think he's 841 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 1: played better as the year has gone on. But we 842 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 1: know he can be special. We know he can make 843 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 1: the splash flash play. Can he just make the easy play? 844 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 1: He can find that balance between playmaker and just game manager, 845 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,359 Speaker 1: then I think that's the recipe that I think they're 846 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:40,720 Speaker 1: looking for. Baker Mayfield postgame Sunday, Drew said this to reporters, quote, 847 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 1: I know there is going to be bumps in the road, 848 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: but I expect to be a whole lot better than 849 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: I have been so far and quotes. It's remember that 850 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: he didn't get there until late in the offseason. It 851 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 1: was a late offseason trade. But they have their quarterback now, 852 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 1: it's just a matter of trying to get everyone on 853 00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 1: the same page. Yeah, I mean he got the first 854 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 1: day of training camp. Ben mcadoo's new offensive coordinator. They're 855 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 1: trying to get it figured out. Everything goes through Christian 856 00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: McCaffrey and knowing Baker as well as I do, Like 857 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:13,320 Speaker 1: you look at him, he is getting more and more comfortable. 858 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 1: He's understanding you know who's as his disposal. You've got 859 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: to have a great relationship between the quarterback and the 860 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator because there's going to be bumps in the roads. 861 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: There's going to be ebs and flows. But they're still 862 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:25,839 Speaker 1: in the honeymoon phase. They're figuring each other out. They 863 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:27,920 Speaker 1: are going to be Okay, Baker's done a nice job 864 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 1: of not turning the ball over. Can they force him 865 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 1: into bad decisions and actually get their hands on footballs 866 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: this week? That's going to be a big thing because 867 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 1: Kyler's also done a really good job of that. Right, 868 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: He's not necessarily put the ball in harm's way, has 869 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,800 Speaker 1: not done that. He's been very strategic on all those things. 870 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 1: So something might give. These are two teams that neither 871 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: one of them have started fast in the first half 872 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: of games. Is there something that's going to give there? 873 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:51,840 Speaker 1: So these are two very similar teams that are sitting 874 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 1: at one and two that desperately want to be two 875 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,439 Speaker 1: and two and not one and three. And I think 876 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 1: that we'll see both of the team really trying to 877 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,319 Speaker 1: duke it out to come away with a win. Well 878 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 1: before last week, the Panthers, like the Cardinals, had not 879 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 1: scored a point in the first quarter. The Panthers did 880 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 1: score in the first quarter against the Saints, and again 881 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 1: two teams that come in with one and two records. 882 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: But when we talk about Baker Mayfield, it brings us 883 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 1: back to Kyler Murray, the former Oklahoma teammates, meeting for 884 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 1: the third time. The first time came back in twenty nineteen. 885 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: Gonna go yeah, give me that you're gonna have You're 886 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 1: not gonna got your hand. You're gonna have to do it. 887 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:33,920 Speaker 1: You got to eat this one. It's all good. I 888 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 1: got Braggerrys bro the jersey swap at Midfield, and of 889 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 1: course Kyler won the second meeting, and now there's a 890 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 1: third meeting, and any insights on what your good friend 891 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 1: Bakers has in store and hoping that he doesn't have 892 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:50,239 Speaker 1: to go oh and three against Kyler Murray. I hate 893 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 1: jersey swaps. If we could, I mean, we could have 894 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 1: a whole discussion on that. I mean, I think like 895 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,359 Speaker 1: one of you should be mad as it sounds like 896 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: Bakers they're in defeat and the other ones rubbing, and 897 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,239 Speaker 1: like obviously they know each other that they've been teammates. 898 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,320 Speaker 1: It's going to it's always tough to go East Coast again. 899 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 1: I think sometimes we put too much into the fact that, oh, 900 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:08,919 Speaker 1: this is what history says, this is going to happen. 901 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,399 Speaker 1: And these are two desperate football teams, and when you're 902 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 1: desperate and you're hungry, a lot can happen. So it's 903 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 1: going to be a hard fought battle against a good defense. 904 00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 1: Kyler's got to be dialed in. Nobody can be asleep 905 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,839 Speaker 1: on offense really quick, Kyle, Cardinals do play better on 906 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:27,000 Speaker 1: the road for whatever reason, so there's another road opportunity here. Yeah, 907 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 1: they played really well on the road, and Caroline has 908 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 1: been horrible at home for a while now, so you know, 909 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,600 Speaker 1: I guess that's that's one fact that the Cardinals have 910 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: gone into this one. We'll see one oh five is 911 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 1: the kickoff eight thirty am.
