It says here in my 30 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: notes that you were born in Austintown, Ohio. Buddy, I 31 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: gotta ask you right now, where is and what was 32 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: the like growing up there? So Austintown we always tell 33 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: people it's directly between Cleveland and Pittsburgh. It's a steel city. 34 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: So growing up on the west side of Youngstown in 35 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: Austintown m a city of grit. We always talk about 36 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: a city of grit and people who people who understand 37 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: and you have to you have to get down and 38 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: dirty to earn the respect to earn what you have. UM. 39 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: So it's a great mindset growing up, especially, you know, 40 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: having the aspirations go play Division one college ball eventually 41 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: one day. UM, you know that what led to the 42 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: aspirations to play in the NFL. So being in high school, 43 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: you work for everything you get, you know, and it's 44 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: very very competitive, especially in Northeast Ohio with football. UM 45 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: ended up getting a full right scholarship to Ohio State, 46 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: UH and then being able to continue that that same 47 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: mindset of grit to earn what you get and then 48 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: which led me into being selected in by Cincinnati in 49 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: the first round in twenty and eighteen and it's been 50 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: it's been a journey ever since. All Right, So I'm 51 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: going to guess there are two kinds of people in 52 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: the city of Grin. You're either a Steelers fan or 53 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: you're a Browns fan. True or false. It's one percent accurate. 54 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,679 Speaker 1: And when I was drafted, that was one of the 55 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: first questions they said, Hey, okay, hey, being in Ohio, 56 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: being an Ohio guy, were you a Cincinnati fan? And 57 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: unfortunately had to disappoint the entire fan base immediately and 58 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: say no, Actually, I was raised the Pittsburgh fan My 59 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: stepfather was from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I was raised on Jerome Bennis, 60 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: Jerome Bettis, heinz Ward pen Ben, Roethlisberger, Heath Miller, all 61 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: those guys, and to watch the continue to watch the rivalry, 62 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: and obviously it's kind of a little bit lopsidedly, not 63 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: recently as recently with Burrow there now, but just that mindset. 64 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: It just I gravitated towards Pittsburgh, and so every Sunday 65 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, you know, every now and 66 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: then he catched Pittsburgh Cincy. So it was started to 67 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: start off the right foot with the fan base and sinc. 68 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: But hey, it's it is what it is. It's where 69 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: I was raised, it's you know, the people I was around. 70 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: So so, Billy, I gotta ask you this right now, 71 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: you're telling me that Austintown is a suburb of Youngstown, Ohio. Correct, 72 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: on the west side. Yes, on the west side, on 73 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: the west side of Youngstown right there. So are you 74 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 1: familiar with the Zorditch family? Very familiar? Oh you all 75 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: keep yeah, Mike, Michael Zorditch right, very very one of 76 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: my fast buddies, dude. Interesting so you're also forty five 77 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: miles from Akron. So here's the next hard hitting question, 78 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: Lebron or Michael Jordan. I gotta go. I gotta go 79 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan, just simply because the numbers speak what they are. 80 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: I would say, when Braun gets to that level, he's 81 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: an incredible in today's era of sports. He is. He 82 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: is the goat in today's era. But if you're looking 83 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: from the history of from myself, from some of the 84 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: other guys in the locker room, I mean, it's hard 85 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: to deny what Michael Jordan's been able to do. So 86 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: in high school, you were All State. In fact, you 87 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 1: were a co defensive player of the Year in the 88 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: state of Ohio and high school. So how did you 89 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: end up an offensive lineman? Take us through that all, right, 90 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 1: When and where did you make the switch to the 91 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: dark side? So play defense, played both sides in high school. 92 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 1: Just again, you play both sides and Friday nights and 93 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 1: it's a little bit shorter quarter, so it wasn't as hard. 94 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: I got to college first day. Mike Rabel was a 95 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: defensive line coach at Ohio State. It took me about 96 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: four days of training camp at Ohio State for me 97 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: to realize if I wanted to continue to play football 98 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 1: at this level, I was gonna need to change sides. 99 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: It was very thankful to be recruited to play both sides. 100 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: And the guy, the offensive line coach who was there 101 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 1: at Ohio States, Ed Warner, who recruited me when he 102 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: was at Notre Dame as the offensive line coach and said, hey, 103 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: you know an opportunity, I would love to have you. 104 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: And then he ended up under Urban Meyers staff at 105 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: Ohio State and then gave me the opportunity. I went 106 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: to coach, I mean, you're an eighteen year old, your boy, 107 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 1: you really are a boy. Tears of my eyes and said, 108 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: I just I don't know if I'm gonna be able 109 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: to do this. You know, after you're getting pancakes three 110 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: or four times, because it's it's the freshman in there 111 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: versus the first team offensive line, who was Taylor Decker 112 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: who's with the Lions, Andrew Norwell who's with Washington now 113 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: played with the Jags, Jack Muhart who spent four years 114 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: with Indie and all those guys, and I mean it 115 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: was it was ridiculing in Pat olf Line, who was 116 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: with Carolina right now. Wow, So you're against NFL offensive 117 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: line your first day there, and I said, I just 118 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if I can do this. Um, I said, 119 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: I need to change sides, and you know, go from 120 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: their urban allowed me to do it and said, hey, 121 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: we're all about it. Got you into the offensive line 122 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: room with with coach Warner and the rest of his 123 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: history and Billy, yeah you did. You went to Ohio State, 124 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: of course, and you actually played three seasons at guard 125 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: right before they moved you to center. Yeah, we kind 126 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: of got this little program now for interior guys, you 127 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: end up you end up learning the offense playing guard. 128 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: So for me, I went left guard for two seasons, 129 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: right guard for a season, ended up at center. And 130 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: pat olf Line did the same thing. He was at 131 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 1: left guard, went to right guard, that went to center 132 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: and ended up obviously he's doing very well for himself 133 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: in the NFL. So it allows you to understand and 134 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: learn the offense from a less less critical position because 135 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: you're not snapping the ball, so you're it's still important 136 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: to have the pass game and in the run game 137 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: and everything you're doing in there, but it's able to 138 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,559 Speaker 1: slow your mind down for then when you get to center, 139 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: you understand the offense as a whole, understand formations, adjustments, 140 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: and then you're accountable for snapping the ball. So it 141 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: was a nice transition into it. Um it's a little 142 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: o Hio State Hio State interior program as we call it. 143 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: So I haven't seen anybody else since do it. Um. 144 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: Let's say the kid who is in there now, he's 145 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: been playing center since he's been there, So it's man, Billy. 146 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: That makes a lot of sense. Yeah, And we were 147 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: able to do I mean, having the size to be 148 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: able to do it, especially at a power five D 149 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: one level, being able to you know, handle you know, 150 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: some of your b blocks, your douce blocks, and then 151 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: being able to transition inside and still be athletic enough 152 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: to go and do those things that center requires you to, 153 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: being able to pull backblock on some of these super 154 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: athletic three techniques that there are. UM, So it was 155 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: it was a good transition. It was a good grooming process, 156 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: especially to be to be the guy in that offense. 157 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: But think about it, and Billy Price is our guest 158 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: Cardinals starting center. You moved to center as a senior 159 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: and then won the Remington Award as the best center 160 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: in college football. To what degree did that exceed your 161 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: own expectations? Um? You know, I had a really good, 162 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: really really really good group of guys around me, and 163 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: it just it's nice, but trying to be humble about it. 164 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: But as as you go, as as a team goes, 165 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: you go, Okay, we were very very good that year. 166 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: I can't tell you the amount of you know, top 167 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: round draft picks that Ohistate has been able to produce 168 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: over the last six seven years. So it's as a 169 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: team goes, you go and you get that recognition. So 170 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: for so Billy, there are so many interior offensive linemen 171 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: that play guard and center. Um, do you have a preference. 172 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: Do you have a preference in the NFL? Would you 173 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: rather play guard than center? Um? I'd rather play center. 174 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: I think for me especially, this game has slowed down 175 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 1: so much for me now, you know, and Rodney and 176 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: I have this conversation often, Rodney Hudson. The game slows down, 177 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: you start to see things slower, people start moving slower, 178 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,559 Speaker 1: and they're still freak athletes, but you know, you're back 179 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: blocking on a three technique, You're able to see those 180 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: adjustments and him move and I think that that was 181 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: the best thing for me my true rookie year was 182 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: to play center, to get groomed to the speed of 183 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 1: the NFL so that you're able to continue to develop 184 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: and grow in this league and to be successful at it. 185 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: So I'd preference the play center. So Rodney Hudson hasn't 186 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: played since week four. You came in from the Raiders, 187 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: and it was a couple of weeks and then you 188 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: took over and you've been the starting center I think 189 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,839 Speaker 1: since week seven. Are you finally at a point where 190 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: you're playing and not thinking? How much of a process 191 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: was that? What was the degree of difficulty in picking 192 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: up a new playbook and scheme on the fly. Yeah, 193 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: it's difficult, especially when you were relied upon to make 194 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: a lot of the calls, make a lot of the calls. 195 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: So in Vegas, the quarterback makes the calls. It's a 196 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: very very patriot like system. So the quarterbacks make the calls, 197 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: which blew my mind when you said that our conversation 198 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: at Mexico City, Billy, when you were saying that you 199 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: weren't making the calls in Vegas, that kind of blew 200 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: my ba. Yeah, I mean, but look at it look 201 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: what Tom does in Tampa, what he just did against us, 202 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: And it was the same situation. And it's there you 203 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: have a growing relationship and again centers are able to 204 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: start to see some of the adjustments, rotations and some 205 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: tendencies that you have that relationship with the quarterback. But 206 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: when the offense and you've got the greatest quarterback of 207 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: all time, run it that you let him run a show. 208 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: So it's a situation there, but you learned. You try 209 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,199 Speaker 1: to pick up the playbook. In three weeks in Vegas 210 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, you know, boom, hey 211 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: they want you taking you off a piece squad. You 212 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: want to go over and you know, picking up the offense. 213 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 1: It's a little bit a little it's a little simpler, 214 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: which is not a bad thing. It's you know, hey, 215 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: you see the adjustments here, your adjustments here, your can 216 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,319 Speaker 1: criteria here, your potential calls. Go play. And that was 217 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: the first thing Cook said to me. It was like, hey, 218 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: we want you to stop thinking so much. We want 219 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,719 Speaker 1: to make this simple. Go play. You're talented enough, you're 220 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: you're a baller, Go do your thing, Go play fast. 221 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: And so it's gotten to that point and in each 222 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: week in the NFL outside of your divisional opponents, there's 223 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: a different scheme. There's a different game plan there. You know, 224 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: we want to run the ball these types of plays 225 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: or protect and have a protection plan for this type 226 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: of player in the division. It makes it a look 227 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: because you have consistent tendencies and consistent guys who you 228 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: see like what Seattle we played twice in four weeks, 229 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: five weeks or something like that, so it's like, okay, 230 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: hey boom, you remember that kind of stuff. So it's 231 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: a little bit of a different situation to that, but 232 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: it's I mean, it was tough. And then on top 233 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: of it, I had a child, which that makes it 234 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: even more because again my wife was in Dallas, Texas. 235 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 1: We're trying to figure it out. All of a sudden 236 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: she came out here. We had a kid. On Friday, 237 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: I played Women and we played Minnesota on Saturday. I mean, 238 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: the turnaround to what the mental side of this actually 239 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 1: was and the last x amount of week, I mean, 240 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,439 Speaker 1: it's been it's been a whirlwind of a season. I 241 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: can tell you that. Well, we did not know that, 242 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: so we buried the league. Congratulations being a father to 243 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: you and your family. Appreciate it. Here will be nine 244 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: weeks this Friday, so it's he he hasn't gotten a 245 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 1: chance to see a Cardinals game yet, but he's doing well. 246 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: He's healthy. I don't know, I'm super super happy to 247 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: be a father. I think you've been a Cardinal nine 248 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: games right about. Speaking of how is your season gone, 249 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: Billy h he has some bumps um as expected with that. 250 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: It's you know, there's different quarterbacks, there's different cadences. There's 251 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: things again, as you learn an offense in the little wrinkles, 252 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: some of these things you get used to in OTAs, 253 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: and unfortunately I wasn't here for OTAs. You know, there's 254 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: free agency decisions, et cetera that were made, but having 255 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: that valuable time makes a difference. You know, some of 256 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: the cadences that we use, some of the motions, formations, things, 257 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: It would have been very helpful for me to get 258 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: to the point where, you know, the last three or 259 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: four weeks, I've really felt like I've settled down. I've 260 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: really starting to play consistent and not you know, my 261 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: mind is not spinning and that makes a huge difference. Well, 262 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 1: speaking of quarterbacks, Colt McCoy is back and we will 263 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: see him in Atlanta and Cliff Kingsbury was asked about 264 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: Colm McCoy thirty six years of age and what he brings. Yeah, 265 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 1: he obviously brings the calmness. You know, he has a 266 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: great field for what we're trying to do and the 267 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,439 Speaker 1: leadership of getting people in the right spot, getting the 268 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: right calls, checking the right plays. I mean that that's 269 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: a comfort level that we all have when he's out there, 270 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: and I'd love to get him some confidence and play 271 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,440 Speaker 1: really well a couple more times hand in an offseason. 272 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: Anybody who's seeing hard knocks realizes that he's a coach 273 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: in the making if he so chooses right. What is 274 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,679 Speaker 1: that like on the field? How does that translate from 275 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: the huddle to the line of scrimmage. I would definitely 276 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: agree that there's a calmness to him. He's seen a lot, 277 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: he's played a lot of ball, and having that calm 278 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 1: presence behind you and his ability to seriously get everybody 279 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: on the same page as well as trust the guys 280 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 1: around them to do their part as a professional. You know, 281 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: we have protection meetings and I run the protection meetings 282 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: and it's okay, I see that. You know, if there's 283 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: any questions, it's okay, hey, what's your thought process behind it? Okay, 284 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: hey you see it that way? Cool? I know my 285 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: answers instead of oh no, we're gonna do it this way, 286 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 1: or we're gonna do it that way, or it's it's 287 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: it's a collective effort. And that's what I think. I mean, 288 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: I know, you know he got a game ball. I 289 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 1: believe he got a game ball for the Rams game. 290 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: That's a perfect, perfect example. Everybody's collectively working together on 291 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: what's going on, what our game plan is, how we're 292 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: going to attack these guys to protect these guys. And 293 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: that's just Cole. I mean, if you know him, if 294 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: you see him, the way he operates, what you've seen 295 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: on Hard Knocks, that's Colt. I mean I think he's 296 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: a father of four, grew up in Texas. I mean 297 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: that is cold. His dad was a high school coach. Yeah, man, 298 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: and it really is. I do I agree with you 299 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: guys on the coaching aspect, because if you you listen 300 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: to him speak and you listen to, oh, hey, this 301 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: is our answer if they do this, this is the anticipation, 302 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: the answers, the adjustments, It's incredible. It's incredible, and it's 303 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: not to age him by no means, but I want 304 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: I used to want to go to Texas. I wanted 305 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: to go to play for Mac Brown And whose jersey 306 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: did I have? Quote McCoy's like, it's kind of a 307 00:14:58,560 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: you know, my dad said the same thing when I 308 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 1: went out there. He goes, hey, you know colts out 309 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: there right, and he's like, do you want me to 310 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: send you the jersey to get signed? I go, no, please, 311 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: I'll do that. So he's just incredible. It's calm, but 312 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: you're like, Dad, you know, cold will think is starting 313 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: center as a stalker or something might come on. You know, 314 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: easy is crazy how we used to do. It's like 315 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: just wild, but well we have him when we come back. 316 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: We want you to share what you can of your 317 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: conversation with JJ Watt earlier today and just what an 318 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: offensive lineman makes of j.

The 329 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: races inside the five and into the end zone. James 330 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: Connor houses it from twenty two yards out. That's the 331 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: Cardinals run game, wearing down the defense in the fourth quarter, 332 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: and it pays off with the first touchdown of the game. 333 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: And it all started by putting the quarterback under center 334 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: with twelve personnel, one back, two tight ends, run the ball, 335 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: tackle zone concept. James Connor houses in there you go. 336 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: That was from Christmas Night, Sunday Night football against Tom 337 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: Brady and company and that Tampa Bay defense. All right, 338 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: so it's a rare opportunity. Ron Wolfley, Paul Calves. You 339 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: heard us right there, Billy Price, our special guest, the 340 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: starting center. True or false? Hear me surmise the Cardinals 341 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,239 Speaker 1: wore down that Tampa defense in the fourth quarter. Then 342 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 1: you heard wolf Site the quarterback under center. Were we 343 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: correct or incorrect? Billy? This is your chance now you 344 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 1: were definitely correct all that it was, been pushing for 345 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,439 Speaker 1: it and finally being able to get the call and 346 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: get them in the right defense. Right look, bot a boom, 347 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: here you go touchdown. So was that, Billy? Was that 348 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: more of a stretch play a zone concept than you 349 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: guys have run before. You guys also run double, you 350 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: run the power without the polls, So that was more 351 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 1: of a zone concept, correct, correct, Yes, something we haven't 352 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: put a ton of on tape. So again, being able 353 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: to hit those guys, and you see a lot of 354 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: successful teams running the wide zone against Tampa, So getting 355 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: that look especially, I believe it was ended up being 356 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: to a strong side as the tight end motioned across 357 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 1: just the way that they adjusted to it and id 358 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: the backside make sure we cut that off. And it 359 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 1: was up to the tight ends to make sure that 360 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 1: we got a lane for jac and go hit your 361 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: head off the goalpost. But guy, yep, James Connor fifteen 362 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: carries five point three yards a carry. Um. You know, 363 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: as you might imagine, Paul pencil Neck here has never 364 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: played offensive line, Billy, So I'll ask you this question, 365 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: what do you guys use to gauge and judge your 366 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 1: performance and where is yards per carry? Where does that rank? 367 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: What else do you guys assess when you grab the 368 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: box score after a game? What are you looking at? 369 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 1: First and foremost? Sacks first and foremost and some of 370 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: the sacks that all sacks are not created equal. Again, 371 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: it could be a coverage sack. It could be I 372 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: got beat, It could be you know, somebody was hot 373 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: and involved and get out. You know, situations, So they're 374 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: not all sacks are treated equally. But again, a sack 375 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: as a sack. And if we can avoid those and 376 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: get you a nice big zero on there, that's the best. 377 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: And then secondly, yards per carry. I think that that's 378 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: a correlation to how successful one year, how successful your 379 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: run game is. And two two I put two B 380 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 1: to that is how many carries did you end up getting? 381 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: You know, I think what last week I said, what 382 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,640 Speaker 1: was a fifteen fifteen Connor fifteen carries? You know, obviously 383 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,479 Speaker 1: offensive line being biased. Hey, we want more, we want more, 384 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 1: but for five point three a carry on fifteen, you 385 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: know it's a decent night. So um, you know, we 386 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 1: just continue to push for it. You know, we love 387 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: the duo runs, you know, the power without the Poolers 388 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 1: getting JC rolling here on the wide zone that we've 389 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: been we've been pushing for recently, just haven't really got 390 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 1: it run into game. And then again it's it's smashed 391 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 1: mouth football. It's tight zone. It's beat the guy across 392 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: from you, and you know you have to be physical. 393 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: And again it gains a defense like Tampa um intention 394 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: to wear them down, and eventually you do wear them 395 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: down and all of a sudden, there you go, there's 396 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: a twenty two yard run for a touchdown. So just 397 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: it's it all ties in with it, Um, but definitely 398 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: sacks boy yards per carry and then touches boy Billy. 399 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 1: Just listening to you talk right there. You know, what's 400 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: all I can think of is Steve Hyden right now? Um, 401 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: what has Steve Hyden brought to this offensive line and 402 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,439 Speaker 1: the mentality they're off. It's Steve is putting a tough spot. Um. 403 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 1: Any type, there is an in season coaching adjustment. Everybody's 404 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: got to pick up a little bit, and I think 405 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: it also has to pick up within the room itself. 406 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: And I think that's a representative reflection of the men 407 00:19:58,320 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: and the leaders that we have in this room. Again, 408 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: Rod Hudson. I mean, if he go give him the 409 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: gold jacket, now, Calvin Beacham, go go give that man 410 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: and his honors and now how he deserves it. Hum Pugh. 411 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 1: Will has been in there, you know, being inconsistent, consistently 412 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: being in there in that room and understand the offense. 413 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: And everybody's picked up a little bit. Hey, you know, 414 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 1: our film studies increased a little bit with the attention 415 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: to detail and understanding how our run fits need to 416 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: be have increased, And it's just everybody's just trying to 417 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: continue to elevate it. And I know one thing for sure, 418 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: no matter who's in there. You know, if I'm playing guard, 419 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: if I'm playing center, if Max is playing right guard, 420 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 1: or Max is playing left guard, or Will's in there, 421 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 1: no matter who it is, We're just going to continue 422 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 1: to keep swinging. And that's the mentality we take into it. 423 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: Starting center of Billy Price is our guest here on 424 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: the Big Red Rage presented by Santan Forn and Gilbert. 425 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: So when you're on the bench and you're getting the gatorade, 426 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 1: you're looking at the jumbo tron. You're seeing what JJ 427 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: Watt has been doing recently to defensive lineman. Man, you 428 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: tell us from a first person perspective, Man, what sort 429 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: of deal has he been lately? He's been something he's 430 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: been on in practice too. He's incredible. You're glad to 431 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: have him, oney, I'm on your side, even at his age, 432 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: you know, getting up there, especially you know, defensive line, 433 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 1: it's a very physical position. And to see it still 434 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: see his production just absolutely incredible. And what a last 435 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: home game to go out on. Unbelievable. And again they 436 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: have a couple of plays against Trisan Worfs all Pro 437 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: right tackle the Bucks. I mean, a phenomenal, phenomenal player, 438 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: a phenomenal athlete and still being able to do that 439 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: and have that high production. I mean, that's that's who J. J. 440 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 1: Watt is, man, and he just continues to go. You 441 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 1: know what's amazing about ability too, Just it brings me 442 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 1: back seeing a great player like that. There are great players, 443 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: of course that not only go out and impact games 444 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: on a very tangible level, but they also bring the 445 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: intangibles to the field and inspire so many teammates around them. 446 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: They're not even trying to. But when you're out there 447 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: playing with a guy who basically is a living legend, 448 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 1: a guy that's going to be a Hall of Famer 449 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 1: man that that can fire you up as a player, 450 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: can it? Absolutely? I mean the energy is in infectious. 451 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: Is infectious to be around somebody like that, to continue 452 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: to elevate your game, to continue to try to even 453 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: match theirs as that. So it's it's always you try 454 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: to match the people around union and continue to elevate 455 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: and continue to just just match the talent and the 456 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: people around you, because you don't want to be the 457 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 1: guy who's not doing their job on the field. You 458 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: don't want to be the reason that Saca Thoup or 459 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: you know, the TfL or whatever the case may be. 460 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: I mean, when Buddha finishes a game with what turns 461 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: out to be a fractured shoulder, I mean, as if 462 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 1: you need any more cred in that locker room, my goodness, 463 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 1: I would say playing safety, and especially Buddha. Buddha's more 464 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: of a box safety. I mean, Buddha can go and 465 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 1: cover the deep third. Don't get me wrong, but my 466 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,160 Speaker 1: goodness is often and as active as he is inside 467 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: that box and have a fractured shoulder. I mean, seriously, 468 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: what else needs to be said about about the kids 469 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 1: as as a player and who he is, and it's 470 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: just unbelievable those two individuals that are in our locker 471 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 1: room and to be able to be around them, just 472 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: their way they operate, the way that they prepare and 473 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 1: how they take care of their bodies. I mean again, 474 00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: I got a little Nick dub knee right now, But 475 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: single morning, buddhistre in there, J J. Watts out there stretching. 476 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: So it's just it's one of those situations that, again, 477 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: it inspires you to be a better pro. What else 478 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: can you do to be better? There's no doubt about it. 479 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: You're watching a Buddha baker go about his business right there. Um, 480 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 1: just a pros pro through and through. And then JJ 481 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: Watt of course, as many years as he's played and 482 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: yet he's still going out and he's making plays and 483 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 1: he's finishing strong right here? Does it make you think 484 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 1: how many years you want to play? How long do 485 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 1: you want to play in this league? Billy, We're gonna, 486 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna, we're gonna hold them and ride the lightning 487 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: as long as we can. Then I'll tell you that, Um, 488 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: that's what's that's what's fun about this league to me, 489 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 1: because again, playing playing center, you've there's a lot of 490 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 1: there is a lot of thinking to it. There's a 491 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 1: lot of reactions. You understand, Okay, what kind of personnel 492 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: we're in a formation? What's the adjustment potential, can criteria 493 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 1: for plays? There's some there's some thinking to it, and 494 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: that's what makes it fun for me in a challenge. Okay, 495 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: if they're going to react in a week side says 496 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:57,959 Speaker 1: he's coming down, how are we going to do this differently? 497 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: Protection it just it makes it fun.

Right, quick answer your high 503 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 1: school alma mater, what was your nickname for that team 504 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: you played for? The Fitch Falcons. Falcons, which is the 505 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 1: opponent this week, And here's Cole McCoy on that Atlanta defense. 506 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 1: The Falcons are extremely well coached. Demp's has been coaching 507 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 1: for forever. When they press you, you know, it's everyone's 508 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: in the right spots, you know, whether it's fire zone 509 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: or they're playing man or they're playing trap coverage behind like, 510 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: my eyes have to be great this week, right, they're 511 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: they're going to be flying around everywhere, you know, and 512 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 1: they know our situation too, so that we'll probably get 513 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: more than most teams. So, now, are they really gonna 514 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 1: dare and try and bring bring some exotic blitzes against 515 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 1: the guy who's seen everything at thirty six years of age. 516 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: That's not going to stop demps, is it? Oh? God no, 517 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: But we expect that, we expect the house. So you throw, 518 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: you throw the whole house in the kitchen sank catcha 519 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 1: especially for players who could miss last week. And although 520 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: he's an experienced veteran, again, the timing of things, the 521 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: speed of things and making getting the ball out fast 522 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: enough or what the adjustment is on a can right 523 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: here for a run, that's what there will be the challenge. 524 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: And it's again you raise your level of preparation to 525 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: make sure that everybody around you is ready to go. 526 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: Make sure everybody else. Hey, we're gonna we're gonna go 527 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: from power to tight zone power to wide zone power 528 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: to this if this protection of that protection. So we're 529 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: gonna make sure colts okay, So when you watch this 530 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 1: DMP's defense on tape right now. I mean he is 531 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 1: known for running complex packages and complex defenses where he 532 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: goes to great lengths to disguise his coverage. Have you 533 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: seen that on tape, Billy, Yeah, I've seen a lot 534 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: of stuff on tape in their front seven, specifically, Again, 535 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 1: you've got and that's this is what the NFL is 536 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: now turned into. Some of these defensive ends run like linebackers, 537 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: and these linebackers run like corners. So you've got to 538 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 1: and especially too with the number changes as well, you 539 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: have to track personnel and understand who that personnel is. 540 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 1: You know, number three used to be a corner, but hey, 541 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 1: that's a linebacker now these days. So you've got to 542 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: make sure we track personnel, understanding our rules for protection, 543 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 1: be cued into that and keep them up right. So 544 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: as a guy grew up in Ohio, was drafted by Cincinnati, 545 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: played in New York, how much you enjoy in this 546 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: weather right now?

The Hall of 577 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: Famer there again when you need a motion. And how 578 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: many times have we called the name JJ Watt both 579 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 1: especially on Christmas tonight, right, I mean at Denver in 580 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 1: the first half, first half against the Bucks. Full name 581 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:18,719 Speaker 1: justin James Watt, his real middle name could be just 582 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,360 Speaker 1: first ballot, because that's the way it's gonna go. He's 583 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,360 Speaker 1: going right into the Hall of Fame as the three 584 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: time NFL Defensive Player of the Year, five time first 585 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: team All Pro, and you know what, he's going out 586 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: the same way he came in as an Cardinal right 587 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: via Twitter, his announcement, his news. He broke it his way. 588 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: Remember he was in the squat rack. We're in the 589 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: Cardinals the Cardinal's shirt, and he said, source me this time. 590 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: He announces the retirement this week and he's got two 591 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: games to go, both as an Arizona Cardinal. Boy, PAULI, 592 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: it really is, you know, um, I did not think 593 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 1: that this was gonna be JJ Watts last year. I 594 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 1: did not think that. I know you and I have 595 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: had some conversations about this, but you know, I you 596 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: know the way I feel on this many every gray player. 597 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: I think every player has truly got to see his 598 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 1: own athletic mortality. I don't care if you're playing in 599 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 1: the NBA, the NHL, major League Baseball, whatever it may be. 600 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 1: You've got to see your own athletic mortality to truly 601 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: be able to walk away from the game. Do you 602 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 1: have any idea, Poulie, how rare it is that a 603 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: professional athlete will leave the game that he loves and 604 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: walk away while he's on top and still capable of 605 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: going out and having the kind of games we just 606 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: saw JJ Watt have against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Christmas. 607 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: I mean, you just don't see a lot of guys 608 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: that walk away from the game when they can still 609 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: play it at an incredibly high level, and that's exactly 610 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: what JJ Watt is doing. I mean, there's really only 611 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: one or two per generation, the Barry Sanders, right see 612 00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: Andrew Lucks. I mean, there's just not that many. So 613 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: of course J J. Watt was asked by the media 614 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: why he's retiring after this season. It's been an unbelievable ride. 615 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: And if you told me back then when I started 616 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: that I'd be able to play twelve years in the 617 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 1: National Football League and live the life that I live, 618 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: I'd have been extremely thankful and probably would have told 619 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: you you were crazy. But I'd much rather go out 620 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: playing good football, knowing that I could still play and 621 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: knowing that hopefully people remember me playing good football, then 622 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 1: to go out limping out and being forced out and 623 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: knowing that I probably should have done it earlier. I'll 624 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: tell you, based on the last couple of months, he's 625 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: a long way from reaching that stage. And he did 626 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 1: also cite wolf the heart scare mid season, where his 627 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 1: heart had to be shocked back into rhythm a fib 628 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: He did mention the arrival of his firstborn, his son, 629 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: which has been a recent happening, how much he enjoys 630 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 1: being a dad. So I think all these things come 631 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 1: by now. I hope that a four and eleven campaign 632 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 1: hasn't contributed to maybe part of the frustration. He's a 633 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: guy who's all in all the time, so he did 634 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: also psy just the mental stress of being committed as 635 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: an NFL player, and that has worn on him as 636 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: somebody who's been so committed every single day for so long. 637 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 1: So I think everything combined boom led to this decision. Yeah, 638 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: I think you're right on that, Paully. Yet at the 639 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: same time, man, I mean, it's such a rare mentality, 640 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: it really is. I know back when I was playing 641 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: and I realized, Paul, oh my goodness, that was ancient 642 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: in it. Yes, here, you're probably right, it was a 643 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: long long time ago. But I can tell you, Paul 644 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: that the mentality back then was make him rip the 645 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: jersey off your back, make you hang on as long 646 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: as you possibly can. And you know that is not 647 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: the mentality that JJ Watt is aspiring to here. Well, look, 648 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be sitting here if I didn't have a 649 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 1: conspiracy theory. So here we go. Thanks for asking you 650 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: ready for this? Oh no, you can't tell me that 651 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: he doesn't have another game plan out there to be 652 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 1: involved in football, maybe behind a microphone. He did some 653 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: network stuff earlier this year, did he not in the 654 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 1: month August? And he was very, very good. As you 655 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: might imagine, he's got a great personality. He's blunt, he 656 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: has the credentials, he's opinionated, he's fine. I mean all 657 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: the above. So maybe just maybe his business agent has 658 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: something lined up and he's going to be in front 659 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: of a camera somewhere effective next season. We'll find out. 660 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: All we know is earlier today we had a chance 661 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: to talk with DeAndre Hopkins in front of his locker, 662 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 1: and of course he's been a long time teammate a 663 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 1: JJ Watt both Houston and here, and yeah, he was 664 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: like us, he was thinking JJ had another season or 665 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: two in him. Always thought JJ was gonna be one 666 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: of those guys that, you know, just just do it 667 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: to the wheels fall off. But I'm happy that he's 668 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 1: going out the way he's going out, finishing his career. 669 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: You know, with all the accolades, he has an end 670 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: off the field. You know, obviously championships are what we 671 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: play for. My thank JJ. You know, he wants he 672 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: won a Championship of life. That's well son, that's well said. 673 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: And look, Wolf, it's going to be a big void, 674 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 1: is it not. I mean, just his level of play 675 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: and the defensive line, and then the leadership which we 676 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 1: have seen firsthand all access behind the scenes with hard knocks. 677 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he's lead in both regards. Yeah, Paul, he 678 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: know it really is. I mean the tangible of JJ 679 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 1: Watts still going out and playing football at a high level, 680 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: playing that three technique, playing a five technique at a 681 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: high level, going out having nine and a half sacks, Paul, 682 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: is there any doubt right now that he's going to 683 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: finish with double digit sacks over the course of these 684 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: next two games. I think that's a given right now, 685 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 1: the way that he's playing, and you can tell he's inspired, 686 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: and yet he inspires so many guys around him. And 687 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: that is the intangible that I keep talking about. It 688 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 1: the intangible we were talking about with Billy Price as well, 689 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: just the fact that this guy affects so many other 690 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: guys around him. And I know what that's like, Paul, 691 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,879 Speaker 1: I know what that's like to some degree. I mean, 692 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 1: I know that Kevin mack oj Anderson, these are names 693 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 1: that people really don't know. But I can tell you 694 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: when you were in the huddle with Kevin Mack for 695 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns great running back Jerome Bettis as well, 696 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: and you were O J. Anderson, You're in the huddle 697 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: with these guys and you know that your job is 698 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: the block for him. You have no idea what that 699 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 1: would fill me with. And some of these offensive linemen 700 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: as well, the way that they would come off the 701 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 1: ball be more intent. Yeah, it does. It speak to 702 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 1: a weakness in us. Yeah, because you should do that 703 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 1: every play, regardless of whether Kevin Mack is running behind you, 704 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: or Otis Anderson is running behind you, or J. J. 705 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: Watt is lined up alongside you. Yet the harsh reality 706 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: is we're human beings, and JJ Watt inspires people around him. 707 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,399 Speaker 1: I walked up to the corner of the locker room 708 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 1: with some of the rookie defenders. Cam Thomas was there, 709 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: my J Sanders is their second year guy, Vic D. 710 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: Mukag was there, and I just said, hey, you guys, 711 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: tell me what do you think you took away the 712 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 1: most from this last year or two? A? JJ Watt 713 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 1: and Cam Thomas said, and I think we heard some 714 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: of this in hard knocks. You know what, do what 715 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 1: you do best, regardless of what the matchup is. Katie 716 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: to your own game. And then both my j and 717 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 1: Victimukaji said, just how hard he goes all the time. 718 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 1: They're in walkthroughs, they're in meetings. He's always locked in, 719 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,959 Speaker 1: always improving his craft. And that's what those young guys 720 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: get from that. By the way, you can join the 721 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 1: season ticket priority list and select your seats before the 722 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: general public. I mean. The opponents next year include the Cowboys, 723 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: the Ravens, the Bengals of Giants. Go to Azy Cardinals 724 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 1: dot com slash priority lists for more info. We continue 725 00:35:54,920 --> 00:36:00,800 Speaker 1: with a big red rage sec in five. Now the 726 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:02,879 Speaker 1: Atlanta forty two. They're gonna keep it on the ground 727 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,879 Speaker 1: with James. It's a flaflicker Warner gotta throw deep near 728 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: sycling for fancies and double coverage. It doesn't matter he 729 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 1: caught it anyway, touchdown Cardinals. You can't stop that guy. 730 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: I'm the flea flicker. Whoa whoa play Larry Fitzgerald stabs 731 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: the ball out of the air. About it out of 732 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: the archives Wolf. The two thousand and eight wild Card 733 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 1: playoff win against rookie quarterback Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons. 734 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 1: This series, it's crazy. The last eleven meetings in this 735 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 1: series between the AC and the atl the home team 736 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: is won. That's the way this is gone. So we'll 737 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 1: see about Sunday. Two games to go in the season. 738 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: Cardinals on a five game bender. Atlanta has lost four 739 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: in a row, and we'll see. Look, both teams are 740 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,959 Speaker 1: saying the right things. Both teams appear to be playing hard. 741 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: The Falcons have lost a lot of games. Cardinals obviously 742 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 1: went into overtime against Tom Brady in the Buccaneers, but 743 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,839 Speaker 1: just did zoom out these last two weeks. How much 744 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: can be gained? How much should be gained by this 745 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 1: Cardinals team that obviously is going to see a significant 746 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:14,799 Speaker 1: amount of change in the off season. But you know, 747 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 1: James Connor was asked that question a couple of weeks 748 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: ago and his answer was, quote some respect, but it 749 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 1: does go beyond that, doesn't it. I mean, you do 750 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 1: get a chance to evaluate a lot of different players, 751 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,280 Speaker 1: and it's going to factor into a lot of different 752 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: decisions if nothing else, no doubt about it, Paulie, You're 753 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:31,959 Speaker 1: going to get a ton of that, right now over 754 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 1: the course of these next two games, of course, it 755 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,920 Speaker 1: really is a situation do you want to be here? Well, 756 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:39,879 Speaker 1: if you want to be here, you know, go out 757 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 1: and ball out. Of course, leave it onto the field. 758 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: And this was something Vance Joseph was actually talking about 759 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,399 Speaker 1: on Hard Knocks, the last Hard Knocks that came out. 760 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: He was talking about the fact, you know that we're 761 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 1: watching guys on the backside of plays that are dogging it. 762 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 1: Why in the world would you be dogging it? Why 763 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 1: what does that tell us about you? Well, you know what, 764 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 1: it probably tells you don't want to be here. And 765 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 1: if that is the case, you're not going to be 766 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 1: here next year. It's PAULI, this is about being a pro. 767 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: These next two games is about being a pro and 768 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,840 Speaker 1: going about your business as a pro, which means you 769 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: go out and you ball out because that's who you are. 770 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: You take pride in your purpose, pride in your job. 771 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: You go out and you ball out. And that's what 772 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,360 Speaker 1: I expect to see out of a lot of these guys. 773 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 1: Whether you want to be here or you want to 774 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: go somewhere else. Man, you got to put some stuff 775 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: on tape. That's good because we're a full service show. 776 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,840 Speaker 1: Here the Big Red Rage or jim Omhundro fine producers, 777 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,879 Speaker 1: some complimentary broadcasting. Here Wolf, you cited that club. Guess 778 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 1: what it's ready to go. Here's bands Joseph in the 779 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,439 Speaker 1: defensive meeting room. You've got two guys in Vuddha Baker 780 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 1: and JJ waff. The best treat is effort. The profile 781 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 1: for NFL safety is not that it's five eleven six 782 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: foot tall. It's two hundred and twelve pounds. That's not that, 783 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: but you can't measure. It's hard in his effort. I 784 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 1: was in Houston with that to JJ. His effort and 785 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: how he plays the game. JJ, that's why you Hall 786 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: of Famer Bans Joseph NFL films Hard Knocks on HBO. 787 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 1: It's some powerful stuff right there. Just the looks on 788 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,879 Speaker 1: everyone's face when he's citing those two guys. Here's the thing. Well, 789 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:21,240 Speaker 1: they're gonna be without Buddha Baker against the Falcons on Sunday. 790 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,759 Speaker 1: And you know, look, Bans Joseph calls him the human 791 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 1: racer for good reason. He makes everyone look good. And 792 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 1: if there are mistakes, there's Buddha Baker a lot of 793 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: times as a safety net. What do you make of 794 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 1: this Cardinals defense minus the only full bowler on this team, 795 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: Buddha Baker. Yeah, boy, this is gonna be rough. It's 796 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,840 Speaker 1: gonna be rough right now. I have no idea what 797 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 1: to expect, but I do know this. The Atlanta Falcons 798 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 1: can run the ball. They do an excellent job of 799 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,839 Speaker 1: running the ball. Think about it. Their offenses number three 800 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 1: and number four and rushing yards per game and rushing 801 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: yards per play. Think about that. That's what they can 802 00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 1: do right there, Tyler Algier, of course, is they're running 803 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: back Paully. This guy runs the ball in a very 804 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 1: very physical kind of way. And what's so fascinating about 805 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons as well, is all of the power 806 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 1: personnel groups that they use. Polly, think about this for 807 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: a minute right here. Twenty seven percent of the time 808 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:21,240 Speaker 1: they're in eleven personnel. That is something that's every NFL 809 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 1: team is in for the most part, eleven personnel, one back, 810 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 1: one tight end, three wide receivers. But their number one 811 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 1: personnel group is twelve personnel. They're in twelve personnel thirty 812 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,480 Speaker 1: percent of the time, which is two tight ends. They're 813 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:41,480 Speaker 1: in a power personnel group over seventy percent of the time. 814 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 1: They're in a power personnel group in first and ten 815 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:49,800 Speaker 1: and second and one to six, Paul, they run the football. 816 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,439 Speaker 1: That's what they do the best. And I think they're 817 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 1: gonna line up and despite J. J. Watt having the 818 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: great game that he did, get ready for J. J. 819 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:02,400 Speaker 1: Watt to have four more tackles behind the line of scrimmage, right, 820 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:05,920 Speaker 1: get ready for another JJ Watt game like that because 821 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 1: he's going to be given the opportunity because the Falcons 822 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 1: run the ball. Yeah, there's that old Santa on defense. 823 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: You stop the run and earn the right to rush 824 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 1: the passer. Right, that's gonna be this week. That's what 825 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:19,239 Speaker 1: Vance Joseph was telling the media. Stopping the run his first, 826 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 1: second and third and then you get the right to 827 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:25,719 Speaker 1: go after the rookie quarterback Desmond Ritter. Interesting, he lost 828 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 1: his first two starts, Desmond Ritter. This will be career 829 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 1: start number three. He's a third round rookie at a 830 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: Cincinnati longtime teammate of My J. Sanders. Fact, My J. 831 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: Sanders has been given some info to Advanced Joseph. That's 832 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: what they were talking about today. Doesn't have a touchdown pass, 833 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 1: doesn't have an interception in his two starts, and he's mobile. 834 00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 1: He's totally unlike Tom Brady. He will pull it and 835 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 1: run it if necessary. So that's going to keep the 836 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:50,440 Speaker 1: Cardinals defense on it's when it comes to stopping the run. 837 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: It could be the quarterback as well. Yeah, and you 838 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: know what else is really interesting too. The defensive quarterback 839 00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 1: rating for the Arizona Cardinals over the last three games 840 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,360 Speaker 1: has been really, really good. As a matter of fact, 841 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: they're number five in the National Football League in terms 842 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: of their defensive quarterback rating. Now you know me, Pauli. 843 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 1: Passer rating to me is a big deal. At the 844 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 1: end of the year, you look at who's in the 845 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,799 Speaker 1: top ten of the passer rating in the NFL, and 846 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,919 Speaker 1: year after year, guess what the usual suspects are there. 847 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:21,360 Speaker 1: If you're a good if you're a good football player, 848 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,240 Speaker 1: if you're a good human being playing the quarterback position 849 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,919 Speaker 1: in the NFL, you're going to appear in that top ten. 850 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: The same thing could be said for defensive quarterback rating. 851 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 1: The Arizona Cardinals number nine over their last three games, 852 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: number nine with a seventy nine point zero defensive quarterback rating. 853 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 1: They've been playing better overall and yet you know, the 854 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 1: score hasn't always indicated that, or maybe the schedule hasn't 855 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,439 Speaker 1: always indicated that. The Falcons number one receiver is top 856 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: ten pick rookie Drake London on a usc We'll see 857 00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 1: what the status is a man Antonio Hamilton, Marco Wilson. 858 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,399 Speaker 1: They could be thin at corner again. And then you 859 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 1: look at the Cardinals ability maybe to run the ball 860 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: in this one. You know James Conner, he likes to 861 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 1: look at the other team. And there's been a lot 862 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: of accolades about the Atlanta running game. So what does 863 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 1: that mean for the Cardinals because Baltimore last week ran 864 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,799 Speaker 1: for a buck eighty four. Yeah, and we know the 865 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 1: Ravens specialized in that. And look, we know a seventeen 866 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: degrees a kickoff in that game, Tyler Huntley only through 867 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 1: its seventeen times. But I'm thinking, Billy Price, our guest tonight, 868 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 1: in that old line, they're gonna have a chance to 869 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: establish the run. That's a great point, Paul, he really is. 870 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 1: I mean, this is what I think you're going to do. 871 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 1: The Atlanta Falcons defense has been the veritable Achilles heel 872 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:39,799 Speaker 1: for the Falcons all season long. They just have not 873 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 1: played well, but especially the run. You know, number twenty 874 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: four in their rush defense and yards per game allowed. 875 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 1: And I would suspect that the Arizona Cardinals are going 876 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 1: to line up and Billy Price was talking about this, 877 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,719 Speaker 1: this evolution over the last half of this season, in 878 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: particular where they're starting to run that tackle zone, starting 879 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 1: to run that wide zone is what he called it. 880 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:08,439 Speaker 1: The stretch play that everybody is running and has run 881 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,919 Speaker 1: for the last decade. I would say in the NFL. Now, 882 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:14,960 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're seeing a lot more of 883 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:18,320 Speaker 1: it here with the Arizona Cardinals, and that is something 884 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 1: I'm really interested in seeing because that's where you put 885 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 1: that quarterback Pauli under center. You put him under center, 886 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:29,279 Speaker 1: and Colton McCoy is very comfortable under center. Look, I 887 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 1: think it's also going to come down to red zone. 888 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,560 Speaker 1: Atlanta has been terrible in the red zone as an offense. 889 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:35,799 Speaker 1: They were over four last week against the Ravens. The 890 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,240 Speaker 1: Cardinals sort of like Atlanta. They've been moving the ball, 891 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 1: but then they'll bog down to the red zone and 892 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 1: they'll have this self inflicted So who can be clean, 893 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 1: who can execute? And the red zone we'll see Cardinals 894 00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:48,879 Speaker 1: have been much better on the road. We know that, 895 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 1: and two games to go, quote McCoy will be running 896 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:55,240 Speaker 1: things and look, Colt McCoy could be the starting quarterback 897 00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 1: for a good stretch next season. So we'll see if 898 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 1: you can get even some more coff and see where 899 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,799 Speaker 1: they can glean from this Cardinals offense. Special Thanks once 900 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 1: again Cardinals starting center, Billy Price, Jim Amahundro, Cody Fincher, 901 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:10,759 Speaker 1: Fron Wolfley on Paul Calveci Cardinals at Atlanta.
