Rob, how you doing? 25 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: And did just survive the low visibility driving in? How 26 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: can I be anything other than fantastic? I get the 27 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: co host the Big Red Rage with polypig skin and 28 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: I'm good ball. Yeah, good thing.

We got a Q 31 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: Shipley coming. M So you say you might have a 32 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: question mark at center? Who better to ask than Rodney 33 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: Hudson himself? You know what? How about a Q Shipley, 34 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: the long time center, former cardinal recently retired back in 35 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,519 Speaker 1: the a Z I believe and AQ was going to 36 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: join us in a little while here on this edition 37 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 1: the Big Red Ragent speaking a little visibility Rob, I mean, 38 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 1: think about it. I've been half joking all week, last 39 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: couple of weeks that HBO Hard Knocks might have picked 40 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: the wrong half of the season the feature. If you're 41 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: looking for true reality TV and you're looking for drama 42 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: and storylines, I mean you want little visibility. How about 43 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: when the Cardinals report to camp, do we have any 44 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: clarity on the Kyler contract situation, the center and Rodney Hudson? 45 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: How about cornerback after the tragic death of Jeff Gladney 46 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: edge rusher? How the Cardinals set there? Not middle linebacker 47 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: Xavin Collins? I mean, no DAP for the first six games? 48 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: Rob Where are you starting? How many question marks are 49 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: out there? I mean, where does your attention go to? 50 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: Off the top? Yeah, certainly a lot of storylines this 51 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 1: offseason for the Arizona Cardinals. Pauli and you talk about visibility, 52 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 1: The biggest cloud, the biggest haboob out there right now 53 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: for me is really still the Kyler Murray situation and 54 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: then on top of that, recently the Rodney Hudson situation. 55 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: So for me, those are the two biggest things kind 56 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 1: of hanging over this team. Obviously, you got DeAndre Hopkins 57 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: out for six games. That's going to be an issue. 58 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: What's the offense going to look like? The first six 59 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: games of the season. What's it gonna look like when 60 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: he comes back? And you mentioned the question Mark said 61 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: on defense, just the edge rush, So somebody, somebody out 62 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: there opposite of Marcus Golden who's going to provide that 63 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: that consistent pass rush. And what are the inside linebackers. 64 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: I'll put Isaiah Simmons in there too, with Zavan Collins. 65 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: How are those two gonna look when they fully have 66 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: the reins this year for the Arizona Cardinals defense. Yeah, 67 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: we'll get in depth in the linebacker question, especially since 68 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: you know this that front seven is an area of 69 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: expertise for you, So we'll get into that a little 70 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: bit later. Do you expect a Kime time sign? What 71 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: do you think at this point? Do you think at 72 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: one of those positions you just listed there is a 73 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: need to bring in a proven veteran and there's going 74 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: to be someone, especially now at ten million dollars in 75 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 1: available cap space, supposedly after Jordan Phillips the June first 76 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: that kicked in. So do you think Steve Kime goes 77 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 1: into action. I think he's always looking, He's always looking 78 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 1: to improve the roster. I've always said that you can 79 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: never have enough offensive tackles, you can never have enough 80 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: defensive cornerbacks. And those are two positions I think where 81 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: especially at cornerback, I think the Arizona Cardinals are always 82 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 1: looking to upgrade and to bring in additional bodies just 83 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: to the roster. But I wouldn't be surprised, Polly, and 84 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: we can get into this later in the future segment, 85 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 1: but I wouldn't be supplies surprised if we'd bring in 86 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: some help in the interior defensive tackle position that really, 87 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: really to help out those inside linebackers. Yeah. I told 88 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: Kyle Vannibosh on the Red Sea Report this week, you 89 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: know what, it's you. It's your job right now, big guy, 90 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: your former teammate and Dominic and Sue with Detroit. You 91 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: got to make that call. You got to make that happen. 92 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: Get him in here on a one year deal and 93 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: Dominic and Sue a defensive tackle. I think everybody would 94 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: welcome that. But you wonder, is all this being held up, 95 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: perhaps potentially a kime time sign of any sort, until 96 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: they nailed down the numbers on a Kyler Murray contract extension, 97 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: Because it has been the off season of Kyler in 98 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 1: so many ways and Justin Pugh was on the Dave 99 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: Pass podcast recently fact it's the latest Dave Pass podcasting 100 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: and download that where every year podcast. He had some 101 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: great insights on Kyler and you know, including hit zoom 102 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: out what Kyler's just done for the franchise in his 103 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: three years. Kyler's in his third year in the NFL. 104 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: And when I was in New York, Eli Manning was 105 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: not a vocal leader. He was the first one in, 106 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: he was the last one out. He did everything right. 107 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: Kyler comes in, he is everything we has them to do. 108 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 1: I was here four years ago and we didn't have 109 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. I remember that team and I've seen a 110 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 1: lot of quarterbacks come through the store. Justin in twenty 111 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: one years, we had the worst offense and I think 112 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: NFL history. So when Kyler got here, a light went 113 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: back on. Irrelevance came back on. We started playing primetime 114 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: games again. We've been in the playoffs, We've been relevant. 115 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: Our family has something to look forward to every year. 116 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 1: There's something to be said about that. Yeah, Justin pe 117 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: was in line right there in twenty eighteen with Josh 118 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: Rosen and company, Sam Bradford, that offense wasn't just bad, 119 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: it was historically bad. So if you're saying, Okay, you 120 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: can't put a price on relevance and the Cardinals primetime games, etc. 121 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: This year, Okay, well that's what Team Kyler is trying 122 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: to do. They're trying to put a number to that 123 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: sort of relevance. And you gotta wonder exactly when it's 124 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 1: gonna happen. I mean, Rob, it's gonna happen, right, The 125 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: contractor extension is just a matter of when and how much. Oh, 126 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: it has to I don't see a scenario where it 127 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: doesn't happen, because that would be apocalypse. Now that that 128 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: certainly would would be devastating to this organization in this season. 129 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, of course, Paul, it's gonna happen. It 130 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: has to happen, and it can happen. There's no reason 131 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: it can't. Um you just look to the West a 132 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: little bit for us, for the at the La Rams 133 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: and what they've done this offseason. If you want to 134 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: get this done, it can It can get done because 135 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: you know, Dan Leloski can put out these lists all 136 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: he wants, like he did earlier this week, Top five quarterbacks, 137 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: twenty five or younger and number one was Joe Burrow. 138 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: Number two was Lamar Jackson. Number three Justin Herbert Okay, 139 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: number four Trevor Lawrence, number five Mac Jones. He did 140 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: not include Kyler Murray. Now, look, maybe if he puts 141 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: Kyler on this list, nobody really pays attention to the 142 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: list because it's kind of predictable. But you can't tell 143 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: me there's one defensive coordinator at there, rob who would 144 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: rather gain plan against Trevor Lawrence or mac Jones versus 145 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. Yeah, I know that's that's garbage, that's clickbait. Um, Look, 146 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, there's there's one, maybe two other quarterbacks in 147 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: this league that have the similar skill sets as him, 148 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: and and he's probably the best of those three in 149 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: terms of just a combination of arm strength and armed 150 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: talent and the ability to run with the football. So, um, 151 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: Kyler is a unique breed and he's he's a rarefied air. 152 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: So you know, those guys don't come around every draft 153 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: class every year. They just don't. And if you have one, 154 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: you gotta keep them. You don't let franchise quarterbacks. You 155 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: don't let quarterbacks of that talent, even sniff free agency, 156 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: and I don't think the Cardinals won't do that. We're 157 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: just kind of speculating here, but um, it's gonna happen, 158 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: you know. And Kyler certainly is a top top five 159 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: quarterback under twenty five years old. In fact, they also 160 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 1: put on another list today just the most games with 161 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,319 Speaker 1: sixty five plus percent completion percentage last season. Mac Jones 162 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: is actually number one with thirteen. And then in the 163 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: second slot, Tom Brady, Joe Barrow, Kyler Murray, Dak Prescott. 164 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: But to your point, who's the guy who can maybe 165 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 1: be the best athlete on the field out of that group? 166 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: So and then there's other analytics to say Kyle Murray 167 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: through the best deep ball, the most accurate deep ball 168 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: last year. Okay, but that still begs a question what 169 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: happened at the end of last year to the Cardinals offense, 170 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: including Kyler and zach Ertz. In another moment on the 171 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: day Pash podcast gave his theory as to what plagued 172 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: the offense down the stretch. We were just such a 173 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: better team on first and second down earlier in the 174 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: season than we were at the end of the season, 175 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 1: and then the season we're freaking facing the second and fifteens, 176 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: third and twelves, and it's just so hard as an 177 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: NFL team to face that consistently and put points on 178 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: the board. And then Rob listen to Justin Pugh, he 179 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: gave his theory to day Pass on the podcast about 180 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: the Cardinals for this second straight year fading down the stretch. 181 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: We have to be better in the biggest situations. We 182 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: have to do all the little things right because that 183 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: is what loses you those big games. We were able 184 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: to get by a lot of times last year just 185 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: being more talented than everyone we were on the field with. 186 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: When you get late in the season, guys are dinged up, 187 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: you're not as healthy as you want to be. It's 188 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: a little place. It's doing the little things right where 189 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: no one even knows you're supposed to make that block, 190 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: or you're supposed to, you know, make that check. Things 191 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: like that. That's what wins those games. And that's where 192 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: we have to get better. And if we don't take 193 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: those steps, it's gonna be the same result. If the 194 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: majority of NFL games are decided by a touchdown or less, 195 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: and that is the stat over the last fifteen twenty years, 196 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: are you a believer that those little things and lacking 197 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 1: attention thereof down the stretch can cost you those games. 198 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: Those little things are huge, Paul. How many times did 199 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: we sit there and watch and see false start after 200 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: false start and all of a sudden, it's it's second 201 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: and twenty. You know, I think zach Ertz is right. 202 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: It got into some situations where they're just behind the 203 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: sticks and it's just hard to convert those first downs 204 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: and it's hard to get any momentum going when you're 205 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 1: going the opposite direction. Yeah, and I think, you know, 206 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: I think those offense became predictable the second half of 207 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: the season. It really did it. Cliff Kingsbury has done 208 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: a great job of in the offseason coming up with 209 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: unique plays, unique game plans and really taking this league 210 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,079 Speaker 1: by storm early in the season. But you know, we 211 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: have to I think we have to evolve. We have 212 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: to evolve this offense continuously, and you'll put defenses on 213 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: the heels, Whereas I think it was the second half 214 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: of last season and the season before a lot of 215 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: times this offense was on their heels and they were 216 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: they were really taking the body blows. Yeah, and a 217 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: lot of it had to do with the run game 218 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 1: or lack there up down the stretch, not setting the tone, 219 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: the inability to really establish that ground game. You heard 220 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: some some comments from players that, you know, the objective 221 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: and focus this year on offense, trying to be you know, 222 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: trying to be a little less predictable in terms of 223 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: run or pass. Hence the emphasis on tight ends. Hence 224 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: the second round pick of a Trey McBride who's a 225 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: dual tight end. So you can see maybe how they 226 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: self scouted and some of the adjustments that might be 227 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: coming down the pike. Here as you get in August Day, 228 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 1: episode thirty two of the Day pash pod cast featuring 229 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 1: Justin Pugh. Also zach Ertz is up there. It's wherever 230 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 1: you get your podcast. Get the latest updates via Twitter 231 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: at pashpot a Q Shipley, former Cardinals center over a 232 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: decade in the NFL, you got questions about the quarterback 233 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 1: of the offensive line of where this might be tracking. Oh, 234 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: we need answers to make Q next the Big Red 235 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: Rage presented by satan Ford in Gilbert under centers, Palmer 236 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: takes hands it off, Ellington straight ahead stood up at 237 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,199 Speaker 1: the one trying to fall forward to get into the 238 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: end zone and he starts a touchdown Rodrey Ellington as 239 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: the Cardinals extend there late at thirteen three Rod love 240 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: it eight two Shipley. That was a great job. I 241 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: ate two Shipley at the point of attack. Yeah, Shipley 242 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:54,319 Speaker 1: thrilled the linebacker. That is football. And that is just 243 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: a precursor of our next guest here on the Big 244 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 1: Red Rage presented by satan Ford in Gilbert. We are 245 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: satan Ford, Paul kelvc or Rob Frederickson in for Ron Wolfley. 246 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: And it's a good thing Aq that wolf isn't here, 247 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: because he'd probably cite your brief career as a fullback 248 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 1: in the NFL and he'd go into his whole fullback 249 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: club stuff and all that malarkey. How are you doing, Aq, 250 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: I'm doing great. Yeah, we'll be talking for hours about 251 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: fullback place. I'm glad we're not doing that. I saw 252 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 1: recently on a podcast You're still a little sort You 253 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,839 Speaker 1: were wide open on a pass route out of the 254 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: backfield once upon a time and Carson just flat ignored you. 255 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: Is that you're still a little raw about that? Yeah? 256 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: I think I'll remind Carson of that until the day 257 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: I'd die. I mean that was I just don't understand 258 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: that I was wide open. I don't understand it. I 259 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,439 Speaker 1: still done. All right, here's my first question, Rob, I'll 260 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: go first, my first legitimate question, sort of have you 261 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: been contacted by Steve Kime? Are you still in shape 262 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 1: a Q Shipley with the uncertainty around Rodney Hudson. I 263 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: have not. I'm in great shape. I just my days 264 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: are over. My days are over. Paul. I wish, I 265 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: wish I still had something in me, but I don't. Um. Yeah, 266 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 1: it's gonna be an interesting deal. I don't know. I 267 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: don't know what's going over Rodney, but I mean I've 268 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,319 Speaker 1: obviously read a little bit about it, and center is 269 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 1: a big position, so it'll be interesting to kind of 270 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,839 Speaker 1: see the way this whole thing shakes out. Hey, Q, 271 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: I got you know, assuming Rodney Hudson, let's just let's 272 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: just assume the worst. Let's assume that he's not in 273 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: the immediate picture. How difficult is it for an offensive lineman, 274 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: say a guard, to move over there and play center. 275 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: How how difficult of a transition is that, you know, 276 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: I imagine going from center to guard it's a little easier, 277 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: But how difficult is it for an offensive lineman who's 278 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: who's really not had a lot of experience playing center 279 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: to make that move. I say this all the time, 280 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: and you know, my little brief career coaching last year, 281 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: I sat there and I had these conversations with scouts, 282 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: with other coaches, and you know, it was always kind 283 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: of like the running joke of like, you know, I 284 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: think people look at it so often like the center's 285 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: uncovered in the four three scheme, and oh, he doesn't 286 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: have to block somebody on every play. So it's like 287 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: anytime in my last you know, a couple of years 288 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: where I saw like a coach be like, oh, I 289 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: don't know if he can make it as a guard, 290 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: maybe we'll trime at center. I'm like, wait, wait, hold on, 291 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: Like we think it's gonna be easier to play center. 292 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: So you know, it was it was always kind of 293 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: interesting to me because I think it's it's so funny 294 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: to me to sit there and think that it's gonna 295 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: be easier when you got one hand between your legs, 296 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: you got to make all the all the mental calls, 297 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: you got to get everybody on the right page. Sometimes, 298 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: you know, if the quarterbacks got is played full with 299 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: knowing all the pass game stuff. Now you're in charge 300 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: all the run checks, and you know there's so many 301 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 1: different nuances that the center has to be able to 302 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: help out, not only amongst the offensive line, but amongst 303 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: the whole group. And so you know, it's it's definitely 304 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: a difficult thing. You know, you hope, you hope that 305 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: the guy can make the transition, but it all comes 306 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: down to, you know, just being comfortable and when you've 307 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: never really had your hand between your legs trying to block, 308 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: you know, Vita Veaway in three eighty, right, and you 309 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: know you had to make all the calls beforehand, and this, 310 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: that and the other. I mean, and so if somebody's 311 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: done that, I don't. I don't think it's as easy 312 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: some people may think, well, I think Justin Pue has 313 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: the utmost respect for the position, just based on a 314 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: few of the reps he took in the offseason. Because 315 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 1: listen to him talking about potentially playing center this year 316 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: on the Day Pass podcast. Justin Peue, I've never played 317 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 1: center before in my career, but I've seen guys play 318 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: center latent to their careers. Center mentally is is so 319 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: much tougher, and in our offense, the center makes a 320 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: lot of the calls. That's why we've prioritized that position 321 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: every offseason. You've seen we had a Q Shipley, then 322 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: Mason Cole that went out and got Rodney Hudson. We 323 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: clearly value that position. So to get some reps at 324 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: center and see how that shakes out, it's interesting, it's fun, 325 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: it makes you break a mental sweat. And look, you 326 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: played with Justin Peue. I think we can all agree 327 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: he's an a high IQ guy football and otherwise. So 328 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: I am a little shocked to hear him say that, AQ, 329 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: I really am. I mean, a guy who's got a 330 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: decade in the league for him to say it's such 331 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: a mental challenge to play center? What makes it so tough? 332 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: You know, it's funny. I got a textual us to 333 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: Rid after Rid, after that mad caamp. You know, whe 334 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 1: are still really good friends, and you know he was like, hey, 335 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,439 Speaker 1: this thing, h was a little harder than maybe I 336 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: thought it once, right, So you know, I guess to 337 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: answer that question, right, like, I think the biggest thing 338 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: is until you're actually out there with live bullets flying, 339 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 1: with live reps going, and you know, you're out there 340 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, they're switching from a two 341 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 1: they're disguising a two high to a one high, and 342 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 1: now they're rolling back, rocking down on the weak side, 343 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: and you got to change the call and then set 344 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 1: hot ball snapped. Right. You don't realize it when you're 345 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: sitting there drawing it up on paper. You're like, oh, yeah, 346 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: I got this, I got this. But then when you 347 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: actually see it in live action and how quick these 348 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: things are happening, and how disguises, and you get up 349 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: and you think this guy's the mic, and then you know, 350 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: you go on the double count, and then all of 351 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: a sudden, this guy rocks down a week and they're 352 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: coming with will free safety and we got to get 353 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: the things switched immediately, and maybe the quarterbacks doesn't see it, 354 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 1: and now he's already rolling into his cadences. I mean, 355 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: it's it ends up becoming, you know, quite an interesting situation. 356 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: And I think those are the biggest things, right. I 357 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: think you can sit there in a classroom and you 358 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: can understand it to the full suxtent, but then you 359 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: get out there and a walk through and you're like, oh, yeah, 360 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: this is this isn't so bad, and then you get 361 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: out there and now it's live Situationally, it's it's a 362 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: whole different scenario because you just got to see so 363 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: many different things so fast. It happens so fast. So 364 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 1: I think that's the biggest thing mentally. Yeah, A last 365 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 1: we were talking last segment about the Cardinals last season, 366 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: the second half of the season and how they kind 367 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: of sputtered going down the end. M Well, when it's 368 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: just any offense in general, when when that happens, When 369 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: when just things aren't clicking, they're just everything seems to 370 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: be stale, nothing seems to be working. What needs to 371 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: be done? Is it? Is it as simple as as 372 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: one play, one big play in one game? Or is it? 373 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: Is it a mindset? M? Is it schematic? What what 374 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: is one thing that can really turn around the fortunes 375 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: of a team and get them off of that losing 376 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: streak or kind of out of that funk. You know, 377 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: that's that's a great question. I mean, I think it's 378 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 1: probably a combination of a couple of different things, right, 379 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: But I think if you have an identity and you 380 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: can kind of rely on that identity when things start 381 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 1: to go south, let's say it's let's say your identity's 382 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: your run game, and now things whatever you do, something happen. 383 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,679 Speaker 1: And now you start, you start to look back and 384 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: you self scout a little bit. And now we really 385 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: haven't been hammering the run game, and you got a 386 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: veteran group up front. Even if you can just kind 387 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: of control the clock and rely and just kind of 388 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 1: just lean on that run game a little bit more 389 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: vice versa. Right, maybe it's your passing game, maybe it's 390 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 1: your quick game, maybe it's your RPO, get whatever it is, right, 391 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 1: if you can have that identity, I think, and then 392 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: you get some veteran guys that are just like, hey, guys, 393 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: everybody just got to do their job and kind of 394 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 1: make a play, and like I said, go back to 395 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 1: lean on that identity just a tad more. Maybe then 396 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 1: you have you know, obviously offense is evolved throughout the season, 397 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: but if we can just kind of find that one 398 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: bread and butter, right that we can kind of just 399 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: lean on that just a little bit more. And now 400 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: you get the veteran guys in the locker room pulling 401 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: all the younger guys up hein, guys, everybody do your job. Everybody, 402 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 1: you know, one guy, everybody just make one play. One 403 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: play will lead to two plays. Two plays a lead 404 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: to three and then that that might be the difference 405 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 1: to kind of get you off that skid. But you know, 406 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 1: it's that's the whole psychological aspect of any professional sports, right, Like, 407 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: who knows why any of these things happen, but you 408 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: do got to hope that you're a veteran leadership and 409 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: kind of some of the things that you can lean 410 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: on with your identity, you can kind of pull you through. Yeah, 411 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: with ba it was twenty two and twenty three double right, 412 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: that run play, you guys would always go back to 413 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: and basically tell a defense. Here it comes, see if 414 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 1: you can stop it, right, So no question. Yeah, A Q. 415 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,959 Speaker 1: Shipley is our guest former Cardinal Center. You mentioned culture 416 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,880 Speaker 1: and leadership, So let me ask about Kyler Murray. You're 417 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: with him his rookie year. You went to Tampa. You 418 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: want a ring. I've heard it said about a Buccaneers 419 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,360 Speaker 1: team that what went twelve straight years without even making 420 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: the playoffs? Tom Brady shows up, you guys win the 421 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: Lombardi Trophy. I've heard it said that Tom Brady was 422 00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 1: the culture of the Bucks. In your pinion and from 423 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: your experience, how vital is that Brinny franchise quarter back 424 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 1: to be that guy and the culture in the locker 425 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: room per se? You see it, you know, time and 426 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,719 Speaker 1: time again. I mean in any sport, right, I mean 427 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 1: I don't I don't think anybody can sit here and 428 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: say that the Golden State Warriors were the best team. 429 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: But there's a guy named Steph Curry that kind of 430 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: just brought everybody's play up around him, right, and that 431 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: team just kind of took off, right, And you could 432 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,719 Speaker 1: say that with any professional sports team, and that that 433 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: that obviously goes back to the guy in any on 434 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: any team, right, And most of the time that's that quarterback, right, 435 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: So it is everything. Kyler's phenomenal. He's grown as a 436 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: player year in and year out since I've left, and 437 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: you know, he's obviously, you know, taking that next step 438 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: as a as a player and as a leader, and 439 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: so you know, I think the next step for him 440 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: is just kind of just really being able to grab 441 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: everybody around him, whether it's you just need one play 442 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,199 Speaker 1: and whatever it is, and everybody's gonna, you know, just 443 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 1: look to him. And that's what it comes down to 444 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: and down in Tampa. I've never seen anything like it 445 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: with Tom. I mean, it was unbelievable what he was 446 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: able to do, what he was able to bring to 447 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: that locker room, but he was able to bring to 448 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 1: that team and just the focus, right, I mean, nobody 449 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 1: wanted to let him down, just the way that he 450 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 1: carried himself, the way that he held everybody else accountable. 451 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: So when you have a guy like that, you don't 452 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 1: want to let him down when it means so much, 453 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,479 Speaker 1: when you watch what it means to him every second 454 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: of every day. When it's Sunday morning, you got to 455 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: one o'clock came and he's grabbing the skill guys and 456 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 1: meeting with them in the back room, going over you know, 457 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: four and five final, you know details that maybe he 458 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: thought of the night before, and you know all those things. 459 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: Everybody wants to just go out and just do a 460 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: little bit more. And when everybody else wants to do 461 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: a little bit more, and the guy that you're counting 462 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: on is already doing that, he brings everybody else up. 463 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: And that's kind of what Tom was able to do. 464 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: And hopefully Kyler can get to that. And I mean 465 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: He's obviously continued to grow year after year, and you 466 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: know he's that that's going to be the next step 467 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: for him to take this group to the next level. 468 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: That's great at Q. Hey, you know you were a 469 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 1: fan favorite when you were playing here for the Cardinals. Um. 470 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: I think they all want to know. I want to know, 471 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 1: what's what's keeping you busy? Now it's football aside. What 472 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: what's what's kind of keeping you busy? What are you doing? 473 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: Where are you at right now? Yeah? So we we 474 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 1: we loved our time here in Arizona. We made we 475 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: made it full time. We live in Arcadia. Um. Love 476 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,439 Speaker 1: it out here. I mean just love everything about it. Um. 477 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 1: Just had our third kid. Um, finally got a boy. 478 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,239 Speaker 1: So I got a four year old and a two 479 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: year old girl, and then we got an eight week 480 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: old boy. Um. And you know, last year I gave 481 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 1: coaching to try and thought that was kind of gonna 482 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 1: be my my ticket. And I was so grateful for 483 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 1: Bruce Arians and that whole group kind of giving me 484 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 1: that opportunity to step from playing right into coaching, which 485 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: not many people get that opportunity. And I loved every 486 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: second of it. It's just I had a hard time 487 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 1: fathom and the fact that I wasn't seeing my kids, 488 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 1: and so we had bought a house here when I 489 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: played for the Cardinals and right before I signed with Tampa, 490 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 1: So you know, I have to talk it over with 491 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: my wife. We decided to come back here, make home here, 492 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: and just kind of figure it out. I don't know 493 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: what's next, but for right now, I've just kind of 494 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: been enjoying playing dad and developed a really good relationship 495 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: with the backup center for the Buccaneers. The name is 496 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: Robert Hanzy. We drafted him out of Notre Dame last 497 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 1: year and he came out and worked out with me 498 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: for four or five weeks. I trained him for five 499 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: weeks in the spring, and then I got him again 500 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: right now leading up into training camp. So that's what's 501 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 1: kind of keeping me busy right now and then kind 502 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: of figure it out from there. What about as a 503 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: hard rock fan, are you working in mosh pits? Are 504 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: you still going to concert? Take you? I love my concerts. Yeah, 505 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: I stay away from the mosh pits. It's funny, yes, said, 506 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: I literally post up in the back right corner of 507 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: any even you I go to just kind of stay 508 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: away from all the all the action.

Get away from three screaming kids. 511 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,439 Speaker 1: Everyone's stay away from the pickle ball too. You know 512 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: Fits and Drew stand those guys are killers in the 513 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,199 Speaker 1: pickleball court.

Congrats to 520 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: you in the family. Hey, I appreciate it. I I hope 521 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: to see you guys. Absolutely a Q Shipley, former Cardinals center. 522 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 1: I mean it's interesting stuff. Rob about what he said 523 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: heard the center position, and man, that is huge the 524 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: future of Rodney Hudson. And if not Rodney Hudson, then 525 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: who and how feasible is it if Justin Pugh is 526 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,400 Speaker 1: the guy will kick that around and then your area 527 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: of expertise, linebacker. I want to hear what you have 528 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: to say about Isaiah Simmons and Zaven Collins. When we 529 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: continue the big Red Rage presented by santan Ford and Gilbert, 530 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: we are satan Ford second and eleven under centers. Prescotty 531 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: Tanks dropping back and throwing to drop ball, steps up 532 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: and he gets away from a car right no runs, 533 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: Ford fum them all the forty and the Cardinals jump 534 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 1: on it at the forty four yard line. Dak coughed 535 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: it off and it's recovered by Arizona Off Dennis Gardak 536 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: has the ball. Isaiah Simmons popped it out, recovered by Gardak. 537 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 1: A huge play by Isaiah Simmons who came on the 538 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: flints and then missed the tackle attempt. Would continued to 539 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 1: follow Dad Prescott downfield and punched the pig out. What 540 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:38,360 Speaker 1: a play by number nine. The athleticism is undeniable. Even 541 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 1: Jordan Hicks last year and said he there were times 542 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 1: he would look at Isaiah Simmons and Zavin Collins in 543 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: the linebacker room and just say, we got a couple 544 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 1: of unicorns right here. The question is what position are 545 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: Zavin Collins and Isaiah Simmons gonna play this year? And 546 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: maybe Rob Fredericks is gonna help us out with that 547 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: filling in for Ron Wolfley here on the Big Red 548 00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: Rage presented by Satan Ford and Gilbert We are Satan 549 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,120 Speaker 1: Or Special. Thanks Rob a Q. Shipley, former Cardinals center. 550 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: Some great insights on center on Kyler on Tom Brady. 551 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: I loved how he sighted three hundred eighty pound Vita Vea. 552 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 1: You forget about that some of the dudes at nose 553 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 1: tackle that centers have to go against. I mean, he said, 554 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:17,719 Speaker 1: when you're playing center and you're playing against him four 555 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 1: or three defense, you don't have anyone directly on you. 556 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: If I'm playing center, I'm praying for that man. I 557 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: one Vita Vea, Right, I'm right two inches from my 558 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: helmet at the snap man No way, all right, So 559 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: we know that position is a mental challenge. What about 560 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 1: this whole future of Isaiah Simmons and Zavin Collins, last 561 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 1: two first round picks. We saw Isaiah Simmons working more 562 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 1: with the safeties during the open media portions of offseason work. 563 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 1: And then Zaven Collins, we don't know exactly whether he's 564 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: going to be the mic linebacker calling this defense. Just 565 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 1: give us a sense as to what's realistic. Rob Considering 566 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: that Zaven Collins a Prittyo didn't get a lot of 567 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 1: snaps at mike linebacker last year. I mean, where should 568 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: he be? Where can he be in time for the 569 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: season opener against Casey? Well, you know, I think advance 570 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: Joseph and in these defensive coaches, they're they're gonna they're 571 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: gonna put the best players out there that give them 572 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: the best opportunity to be successful as a defense. UM 573 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: And and you saw that last year, you saw it 574 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: the year before with Isaiah Simmons. You know, if if 575 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 1: they're not ready, Zaven Collins last year, if they if 576 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: they're not ready, if they're injured, you can't play. You 577 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: can't put them out there. You can't play him in 578 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: that middle linebacker area. And that in that alignment because 579 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: you know, like Rodney Hudson is, is that valuable to 580 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: the offense. He's basically the quarterback of the offensive line, 581 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: calling the protections, calling UM the run blocks and where 582 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 1: everyone needs to be lined up. UM. The middle linebacker 583 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: does that for the defense. He's calling the coverages, he's 584 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: calling any changes based on motions and and shifts. The 585 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: middle linebacker has to be so plugged in to what's 586 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: happening pre snap. UM and then post snap obviously um 587 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:03,959 Speaker 1: that that there's no absolute zero room for mental errors. 588 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: And when you have young guys. Isaiah Simmons really didn't 589 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: play a lot of linebacker in Clemson. He was more 590 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: kind of a slot corner and a deep safety, but 591 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: he did have some some opportunities where he was up 592 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: closer to the line of scrimmage. But then you try 593 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: to put him into that middle linebacker or inside outside, 594 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: inside kind of week side linebacker position, that's a different animal. 595 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 1: And I think it was a different animal for Xavin 596 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: Collins last year. And I'll give them that learning curve. 597 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: I'll give him that year. But your number one draft 598 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: picks on defense have to be solid starters. They have 599 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: to be solid contributors, and they need to be playing. 600 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: Quite honestly, seventy five to eighty plus percent of the 601 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: defensive snaps for the entire season. Was vance Joe Sevast 602 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 1: recently about his pair of young inside linebackers. Yes, he was. 603 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: And here's what the defensive coordinator had to say about 604 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: Zavin Collins and Isaiah Simmons. It's their time. You know, 605 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: Isaiah's going into his third years, Avan's going into a 606 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: second year. The first round picks to have to help us, 607 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: you know, And it's heading that way. You know. I've 608 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: been proud of the Zaven how much time he's put in. 609 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: Isaiah has always been a good worker, you know. It's 610 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: it's the next step for him. Obviously watching him last year, 611 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: he made plays, you know, but now he has to 612 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 1: make consistent plays and not give what plays. You know. 613 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 1: That's that's this next challenge, and for Zavan to stand 614 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: healthy and keep learning. But both guys are physically gifted, 615 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: you know, so we have to get those guys ready 616 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: to play because we need him. Wolf and I argued 617 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: about this a little bit, and you can go ahead 618 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: and you tell me if I'm off base. For me, 619 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: if both guys are on the field, I'm good with that. 620 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily need Zaven Collins to be the quarterback 621 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 1: of the defense and calling the plays and making the checks. 622 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: And I don't necessarily need Isaiah Simmons to be the 623 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: weak side inside linebacker. I just need those guys on 624 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: the field, two of the eleven and being able to 625 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: go sideline to sideline using their size and athleticism to 626 00:30:56,600 --> 00:31:00,719 Speaker 1: make plays. What's your take on that? You know, I 627 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: agree with you. With Isaiah, I think it's a little 628 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 1: easier to find a position for him if it's not 629 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: that that week side inside linebacker because he has played 630 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: so many multiple positions in college. Um, he can easily 631 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: transition to something else. Um. The difference is Zaven Collins, 632 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 1: I'm not really sure where to put him if it's 633 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: not that middle linebacker position. I don't necessarily see him 634 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: as an outside pass rush guy. So if it's not that, 635 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: I really don't know where you would put him. Now, 636 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: there are some capable linebackers in that room. Picking up 637 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 1: Nick Vigil I think I think that was a great 638 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 1: pick up Dennis Gardak coming off that knee surgery the 639 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: year before, coming off the last season. UM, you know, 640 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: Tanner Vallejo has been very effective when he's been gotten 641 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: opportunities get in there and get reps. And you have 642 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 1: Zeke Turner as well, So there's some other players that 643 00:31:56,080 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: can play those inside linebacker positions. I still think Zaven 644 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: Collins and Isaiah Simmons can do it and can do 645 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 1: it very well. And that's kind of going back to 646 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: my one of my opening statements on the show, PAULI, 647 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: when I said I wouldn't be surprised if we're starting 648 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: to you know, time time looking at some defensive tackle help. 649 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 1: The more you can keep those offensive linemen off of 650 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: those linebackers and allow them to be free runners and 651 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: use their athleticism. Man, that's a great defense. You know that, 652 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: That is what a great defense really needs. You know 653 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: you hear about um. You know Tony Saragosa rest in 654 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 1: peace yesterday what he did for Ray Lewis and that 655 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens defense. Ye man, I mean that you can't 656 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: you can't you know, understate that. You can't overstate that 657 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: it really it is the one of the most important 658 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 1: positions is to have those interior defensive linemen stout and 659 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: chewing up those offensive linemen and allowing athletic linebackers like 660 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 1: we have, allowing them free reign to run. Hey, think 661 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 1: about we just talked about Tampa with a Q Shipley. 662 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 1: Think about their Super Bowl winning sea and two years 663 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: ago and those two inside linebackers just flying around, especially 664 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. So you have guys like Vita Vea 665 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: and and Dominican Sue keep an offensive linemen off those 666 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: two inside backers and they flew around and you can't 667 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 1: tell me. That's not one of the reasons the Arizona 668 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: Cardinals took in Isaiah Simmons and Zaven Collins. Right, if 669 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: it's a copycat league. You saw what a Devin White 670 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: and company did for Tampa and that defense. Now Zavin Collins, 671 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: obviously the challenge here is mentally, and he was pretty 672 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: honest with the media and said, yes, it has been 673 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 1: a process. Obviously, you know, last year didn't go as 674 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: you know everyone would want. But that's that's part of life, 675 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: just learning from those mistakes, applying them to now and 676 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: trying to get better, which I have. I think that 677 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 1: I've done a really good job in some of the 678 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: areas that I've messed up as far as you know, 679 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: mental errors or you know, stuff like that. I just wonder, Okay, 680 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna get to the reggor. He's not going to 681 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: see very much in the preseason in terms of advanced schemes. 682 00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: Nobody's showing anything offensively. Those reps is going to be valuable, sure, 683 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: but only to a certain degree. So he's not truly 684 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: going to be playing NFL football until Week one. How 685 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: risky is it to put him out there at mike 686 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 1: linebacker to what degree. Do you think Vans Joseph's is 687 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: willing to let his young middle linebacker learn on the job, 688 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,240 Speaker 1: because I haven't seen much appetite for that from Vance. 689 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: You know, a guy like Zavian Collins, what he really needs, 690 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 1: he needs reps. I think Isaiah Simmons does too, especially 691 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: if they're gonna try to play them at those inside 692 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 1: linebacker positions. They need reps, and so they need all 693 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: the preseason reps they can get. Um, you're right, it's 694 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: gonna be rather vanilla. There's not gonna be a lot 695 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: of exotic formations and shifts and motions and and things 696 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 1: like that in the preseason. At least he wouldn't expect it. 697 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: So he's not going to get all those presnap you know, 698 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 1: change of change of strength, motions, changing the coverages on 699 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 1: a fly. He's not going to get a lot of that, 700 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: I wouldn't think, because they're gonna want to keep things 701 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 1: vanilla defensively as well in the preseason. But yet he's 702 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: gonna be able to see things. He's going to be 703 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 1: able to distinguish if those offensive alignemen are setting up 704 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 1: for run or versus pass, what do those blocks look like? 705 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: What does the flow of the running back. Look like 706 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna be able to see that. He needs to 707 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,839 Speaker 1: see as many of those reps as he can so 708 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 1: that he can kind of just make that second nature 709 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 1: for him and so we won't really have to think 710 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 1: out there. I think that's one of the things that 711 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: maybe kind of slowing these guys down in terms of 712 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 1: their maturation process is just overanalyzing, overthinking things versus just 713 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:37,320 Speaker 1: reacting and going and trusting your instincts. Rob Frederickson in 714 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 1: Forron Woefully, long time outside linebacker in the NFL. So 715 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 1: give me a quick thought on where you think the 716 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 1: Cardinals are right now at that position, because a month 717 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 1: ago we would have said, okay, you know, before the 718 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,880 Speaker 1: tragic death of Jeff Gladney, now the Rodney Hudson situation, 719 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,479 Speaker 1: if there was going to be a kind time sign, 720 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 1: most likely it would be an edge guy. Where do 721 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,280 Speaker 1: you think the Cardinals are right now? With Marcus Golden, 722 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 1: then opposite him a Devon Kinard, a Dennis Gardeck, and 723 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: then pair around three rookies. Yeah, I look at these rookies. 724 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 1: They're interesting. You know that Cameron Thomas and and my 725 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: g Sanders. Uh, you know Cameron Thomas, He's he's got 726 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 1: some size to him. And and I think if um, 727 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 1: he's got the ability he was he was pretty productive 728 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,400 Speaker 1: in college, so he's got the he's got the ability 729 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: to to really make an impact I think early on. 730 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 1: And and Sanders he's got some speed coming off the edge. 731 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: He's a little raw. Um, I think he's somebody that 732 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: that might take a little bit more time. But um, 733 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 1: you know, I kind of think it's going to be, 734 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 1: you know, like it was two years ago. It kind 735 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: of when you know, when Chandler Jones went down with 736 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: the bicep injury, it was it was kind of a 737 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: it was kind of a sack by committee operation, and 738 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,399 Speaker 1: you saw what Dennis Gardeck was able to do back 739 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: then when he was healthy and kind of caught some 740 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 1: people by surprise. Um, you know, you may see some 741 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: of that, you know, advanced. Joseph is certainly good at 742 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: coming up with schemes and finding ways to apply pressure. 743 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,040 Speaker 1: But anytime you do that, anytime you bring more than 744 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 1: four defenders on a pass rush, you're really putting an 745 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 1: onus on your secondary, on your linebackers in terms of coverage, 746 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: and that's where everybody's going to be on the same page, 747 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 1: and everybody's got to really understand what their roles and 748 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:17,959 Speaker 1: responsibilities are. If if those five guys can't get home, 749 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,239 Speaker 1: it's really putting a lot of pressure on on those 750 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: back end guys. And you're right. Two twenty, Chandler Jones 751 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 1: went down Week five at the Jets. Cardinals still ended 752 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: up top five in sacks as a defense, and you know, 753 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,799 Speaker 1: Vance Joseph has been there and done that. There were 754 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 1: eighteen different players who had at least one sack in 755 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: two twenty for the arison our Cardinals, and there were 756 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 1: a dozen guys who had at least two sacks. Think 757 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: about that. And Kyle Vanabosh was on earlier, a guy 758 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 1: who made his living rushing the passer. Just saying how 759 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:48,400 Speaker 1: different all the Cardinals edge rushers are opposite Marcus Golden 760 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 1: mother Stevan Kannard, or a Dennis Gardeck who's more of 761 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 1: a pit bull the size and power of a Cameron Thomas, 762 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: long lean athletic my j Sanders. So maybe you just 763 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: keep changing it up on that tackle out the course 764 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: of a game. Hey, a reminder, Cardinal season tickets are 765 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,240 Speaker 1: available now.

When it comes 777 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 1: to this new combo between Kyler and Hollywood Brown, it 778 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: is the Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert. 779 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,239 Speaker 1: We are Satan forward, Paul Calvc or Rob Frederickson pinch 780 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 1: hitting for Ron Wolfley and Rob. It was hard not 781 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 1: to notice throughout OTAs number one thrown to number two, 782 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 1: and it was just the chemistry they already have. When 783 00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,959 Speaker 1: Cliff Thingsbury talks about how they can already make eye 784 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:22,399 Speaker 1: contact and make adjustments, hand signals already exist. I mean, 785 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: look We've talked about this. You can go get a 786 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,760 Speaker 1: first round Rickey receiver and he can be as talented 787 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 1: as anything, but there's gonna be that learning curve for 788 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: any rookie receiver. And this is about as plug and 789 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 1: play as it gets for a brand new player into 790 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 1: your offense. Oh, it's it's cheating. It's almost cheated. It's 791 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 1: like you looking over my shoulder in math class, Paully, 792 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 1: and trying to, you know, get my answers. But well, 793 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 1: I'd rather have your Michigan State tutor actually than you, 794 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 1: but because we know your tutor did all your homework anyway, 795 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:54,439 Speaker 1: But go ahead, okay, all right, yeah, Cal, I'm sorry, 796 00:39:54,440 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 1: your academic assistant. I'm sorry, Yeah, my academic assistant. That's right. Yes, Look, obviously, 797 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: the first six games you're gonna be without DeAndre Hopkins 798 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 1: and to have Hollywood Brown and someone that has a 799 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: familiarity with Kyler and and just that bond that they've 800 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:15,120 Speaker 1: they've had for years at Oklahoma, and for him to 801 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: to for the Cardinals to make that move to bring 802 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 1: in Hollywood Brown, knowing that this was coming down the 803 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: pike for DeAndre Hopkins, I think that it was a 804 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 1: it was an unbelievable move by the Cardinals, and to 805 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 1: pick up a talent as young as Hollywood Brown is 806 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:32,239 Speaker 1: um and he really you know, you think about it 807 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 1: and look at look at him statistically, he doesn't have 808 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 1: a lot of wear on those tires. Um. You know, 809 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 1: it's it's it's basically like him coming in and being 810 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 1: a rookie all over again. I mean, think about that 811 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 1: Baltimore offense, right, Greg Roman's offense, it was it was 812 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 1: run first, second, and third. Uh. The fourth option was 813 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 1: a tight end, The fifth option was Lamar Jackson, the 814 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: sixth option was a tight end again, and then it 815 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: was Hollywood Brown. Right. I mean, I think that's why 816 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: the Cardinals feel they can they can still unlock a 817 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: lot of potential out of Hollywood Brown. In fact, here's 818 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury just on Marcus Brown's big playability. He can 819 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: stretch the defense. There's no doubt vertically. I mean, he 820 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: can really roll. He had a bunch of big plays 821 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: last year, could have had more. I felt like, um, 822 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 1: that's an aspect you know, hav An aj Rondo him, 823 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: Guys that can can stretch the field from all angles 824 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 1: is going to be good for us because Rob you 825 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 1: know this Christian Kirk Okay, he maybe wasn't quite as 826 00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 1: fast as Hollywood Brown, but he's still had wheels, but 827 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 1: he wasn't that effective as an outside receiver. He was 828 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,360 Speaker 1: much better in the slot, whereas Hollywood Brown is legit 829 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: X receiver in this offense. Yeah, Hollywood's going to be outside. 830 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 1: Even when DeAndre Hopkins comes back, Hollywood's still going to 831 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 1: be outside, and that's really where he belongs. And and 832 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 1: you're right to have a to have a wide receiver 833 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 1: that could stretch that field consistently and and with the 834 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 1: with the long throwing ability and accuracy. If Kyler Murray 835 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 1: as you talked about earlier, um to have that that 836 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 1: threat there and consistently have that threat there, that's going 837 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: to open up so many things underneath for Deandrey Hopkins, 838 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 1: for Zach Ertz, Trey McBride, Rondell Moore. We haven't talked 839 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 1: about Rondell Moore yet, but you know, finding a role 840 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 1: maybe in the slot receiver position for Rondell Moore I 841 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: think is really gonna help him and this offense tremendously 842 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 1: this year, especially if we can believe Sean Jefferson what 843 00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 1: he told us a couple months ago on the Big 844 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: Red Rage and Cliff Kingsbury that they're definitely gonna get 845 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: Rondelle more more targets downfield. And I see those two 846 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 1: guys pushing each other. I see that dynamic, right, Both 847 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:34,520 Speaker 1: burners both sort of similar size and they're competitive in 848 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 1: that way. So I think that's a good dynamic. Here's 849 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 1: the other thing too, is you know, Hollywood Brown was 850 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 1: always the number one receiver for the Baltimore Ravens. He 851 00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 1: was the guy who got doubled. He was the guy 852 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 1: who got that bracket coverage. Well, when d hop comes back, 853 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 1: he's gonna get a lot of single coverage. Look Out. 854 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 1: This offense is stacked with talent on the outside. Really 855 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 1: now talent, it's a tight end position, running back position, 856 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 1: the skill positions on his offense. It's stacked, and so really, 857 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:08,840 Speaker 1: I think that the challenge will be finding ways to 858 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:13,239 Speaker 1: spread that ball around number one and ensuring that this 859 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 1: offense doesn't become predictable. You know, a couple of years ago, 860 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: we became rather predictable going to DeAndre Hopkins on the 861 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:25,799 Speaker 1: left side, he basically ran three different routes. We can't 862 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 1: allow that to kind of creep back in to this 863 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,520 Speaker 1: offense because there are so many talented players. We have 864 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: to find a way to really keep defense on their 865 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 1: heels and and really not be predictable, move the ball 866 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 1: around and get it into the hands of your playmakers 867 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 1: and let them do their thing. And you know, we 868 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:45,800 Speaker 1: got into that a little bit with Drew Stanton on 869 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,319 Speaker 1: the Red Sea Report last month and just talked about 870 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 1: how the last two seasons down the stretch the offense 871 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 1: bogged down and wasn't because of a predictability, and he 872 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 1: said a couple of things. He said, you know what, 873 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 1: when the Cardinals offense bogged down last season, they couldn't 874 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 1: run the ball nearly as effective as they did the 875 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 1: first half of the season. Absolutely, But then he added 876 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 1: about the tight ends, and now the tight ends allow 877 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: you that much more versatility in your play calling, and 878 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 1: the tight ends won't show your hand as much. Hence 879 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 1: the emphasis on that position in the offseason. Well, think 880 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,959 Speaker 1: about Trey McBride bringing him in as a second round pick. 881 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:20,919 Speaker 1: He won the Mackey Award ball as the nation's best 882 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,760 Speaker 1: tight end. He's pretty darn good. He can pass block, 883 00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:26,239 Speaker 1: he can run block, and he can he can get 884 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 1: the ball down the field he can receive, so I'm 885 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 1: excited to see what he does. Of course, we know 886 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 1: what zach Ertz can do, and hopefully getting Max Williams 887 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 1: back from the surgery last year.
