So Antonio, before 35 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: we get into the football stuff, which is really really 36 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: good and we love talking to you about that. What 37 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: is Johnston, South Carolina? Like ah Man, real small town, 38 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 1: but it's the peach capital of the world, so rubly 39 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: that was gonna be very fault. It really is the 40 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: peach capital of the world. Yeah, the peach capital of 41 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: the world most of the time. You know, if he 42 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: getting any peaches that are coming from down south, they 43 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: probably came from Johnston more than likely. So what's it. 44 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: What's it like though to live? It's a small town. 45 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: H yeah, extremely small, super small town. Um probably, I 46 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: know y'all said they even had what thirty five hundred 47 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: people including the prison. Well we got about twenty five 48 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,839 Speaker 1: hundred including the prison. So yeah, it's really really small. Man. 49 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: It's a real small community. Like everybody knows everybody, so 50 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: it's not too much you can do as far as 51 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: like get yourself in trouble because they gonna know who 52 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 1: you are and then they're gonna tell your mom one 53 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: then it's just it's all bad. So yeah, it's a 54 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: real small town. Could you ever do it again? Small 55 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: town life? I mean, you spent the last seven years 56 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: in big cities in the NFL. Could you move back 57 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 1: and do a small town again? Oh? Yeah, man, most definitely. 58 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: I love I can go back every year at least 59 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: three to four times because I love I just love 60 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: being home, Like it's just you get away from a 61 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: lot of the noise and everything and you just get 62 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: to be a part of It's like it's really like 63 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: a big family, like being in those small type of towns, 64 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: so it's like almost like a family.

Cliff Kingsbury studied your interception, 78 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: not the two picks sixes is maybe the most important, 79 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: but as the pencil next sideline reporter, I vividly remember 80 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: you coming to the sideline and going to the rail 81 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 1: and looking for your wife and take it from there. 82 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,119 Speaker 1: Explain to everyone, because I think a lot of folks 83 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: are familiar with the cooking accident you had, but just 84 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: the wife and in the props and plot that's you 85 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 1: paid to your wife and your recovery from those second 86 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: degree burns.

I love them more than a world, 88 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: of course, and more than anything in the world. So 89 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: I've always told it like I was, like, man, when 90 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: that day come that you know, guy, finally best blessed 91 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 1: me with that opportunity to get my hands on the ball. 92 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: You know, I pretty god as you're there, because I'm 93 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 1: an come and bring get the ball and getting an 94 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: opportunity to come back after being you know, sustained in 95 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 1: the injury that I sustained, uh right, during training camp. 96 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: You know, I was in the dark place. And so 97 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: to get that that that pick after seven years of 98 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: waiting for a long long time and not getting many 99 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: opportunities to you know, get myself out there to get 100 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: those interceptions. I mean, like man, it was perfect time 101 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: with everything and so when I when I made it, 102 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: I went straight to the sign. I'm like, uh, where 103 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 1: she had? I know she's somewhere over there. And I 104 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: was as I got to get down the sideline I'm 105 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: looking for and people was like, yeah, man, you was 106 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 1: showing off, showing and stuff. Had you walked going on? 107 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: But I was like nah, yeah, but I was really 108 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: looking for her. I couldn't find her. And then I 109 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: turned around to just walk away and Benjamin was like, 110 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: oh dash she is. I was like, perfect. And then 111 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 1: so I was able to present her with the ball man. 112 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,039 Speaker 1: So yeah, it was you know, yeah, Tonio, Thanksgiving obviously 113 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: is right around the corner coming off here. You've got 114 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 1: an awful lot to be thankful for, right, I mean 115 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: it just can you put this this season into perspective 116 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: for us and what it means to you? It means 117 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: a great deal, of course, But it was kind of 118 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: like a wake up call to a certain degree. Um 119 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 1: was just everything where how everything was going for me, 120 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: for Kemp, you know, it was so promising and this 121 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: that and the third and all in the blink of 122 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: it can all be gone. So at that time I 123 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 1: was like thying. I was faced with two things. It 124 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: was like I can either fall in the hole and 125 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: give up and just you know, allow my injury to 126 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: you know, take away everything, or I can use this 127 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: to to become better or to become something more of myself. 128 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: And so when I when I got hurt, I was like, man, okay, 129 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: you know, if God does nothing else from me outside 130 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: of just you know, healing me, then I'm great for him, 131 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: thankful for it. So as I approached it with that 132 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: type of mindset, I began to like, I heal faster 133 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: because the doctor said, you know, the type of burns 134 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: that I have had both second degree, very deep second 135 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: degree and third degree burns, and so I just had 136 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: a lot of I started having a lot more a 137 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: lot more gratitude for the small thing. So something about 138 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: just being able to get up, to walk, to get 139 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: to the restroom was a big, big deal for me 140 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: because within that first week it wasn't bad. But the 141 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: second week when my feet swoll up and skins and 142 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: beginning to peel and had to change my wounds. Like 143 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: my wife literally like she was I guess five months pregnant, 144 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: six months pregnant at the time, she would literally have 145 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: to get up and pick me up and take me 146 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: to the bathroom. So I know that I was up 147 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: here a couple of times, but the days that I 148 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: was here, I was an extreme amount of pain because 149 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: just because how much my feet had swolled swollen, and uh, 150 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: just with the nerve in is in my feet. So 151 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: the type of feeling that you may have that you 152 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: have in that to try to describe the sense of 153 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: pain that I felt. And even now, like I had 154 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: to take my shoes off sometimes and I had to 155 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: lift my feet up and go on my tippy toes 156 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: because if when the blood flows to my toes, the 157 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: nerve is still healing, so they kind of have like 158 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: this itchy feeling like if you go to sleep and 159 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: you go to sleep on your arm and you wake 160 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: up and you know how you can't move your arm 161 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: and they've got that static like feeling, and so add 162 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: that with a little bit of sense of like somebody 163 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: just constantly like pinching you, like, and so that's the 164 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: kind of like feeling that I have. And it was 165 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: way way, way worse when I really was like really 166 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: really recovering before I got back to bass. So like 167 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: I just started being extremely grateful for each and every 168 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: day cool and within six weeks you were back on 169 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: an NFL field. Yeah, that is remarkable. Yeah, Antonio, and 170 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 1: this last game, you had a career high eleven tackles, 171 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: you had two passes defense. I mean, you guys turned 172 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup into a non factor. He had negative one 173 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: yard receiving. That was all minus the Cardinals number one 174 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: cover corner Byron Murphy. Think about that and plenty of 175 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 1: other players, by the way, on both sides of the ball. 176 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: And once again, here's what you had to say afterwards, 177 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,359 Speaker 1: Kelvin Beecham, react to how you describe the win at LA. 178 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 1: Vitamin W is always good. You know, it makes it 179 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: easier to go to work. It makes it easy to 180 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: deal with the knicks, knacks and bruises and pains. You know, 181 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: it makes it easier to go to work. And so 182 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: we needed that vitamin W. What's vitamin W? Oh you 183 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: got a big laugh out of Kelvin Beecham. Right, and 184 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 1: based on hard knocks last night, does vitamin W helped 185 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: cure popcorn itis? He had his own deal. Yeah, Yeah, 186 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. I hope it do. So tell me 187 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: about the game and that win and just I mean, 188 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: how pivotal the win was. And I don't know if 189 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: it's classified information. But Cooper Cup in two games had 190 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: seven catches forty three yards, zero touchdowns on eleven targets. 191 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: What was the key defensively against the Rams this season? Oh, well, 192 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: going into the game, we of course, you know that's 193 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: a divisional opponent, so we know them very well. So 194 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: it wasn't like we were going into the game like, 195 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: hey man, we got you know, double bracket coverage each 196 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: and every player and just mess up the whole scheme. Na. 197 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: It was just like, hey, we gotta line up, know 198 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: where he is, and they gave me that role um 199 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: this week with Byron being down, and of course, like 200 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: we have like a great, great great room of dbs 201 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: and that anybody can come in at any given time 202 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: and covering the number one receiver with no problem. And 203 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,079 Speaker 1: you know that's just a test of advanced Joseph and 204 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: his staff and and and everyone else. That's a part 205 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: of like getting a roster together, like we have competitors 206 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: through and through and so man, going into that week, 207 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: it was just like, hey, we're gonna line up, We're 208 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: gonna play at what we play and do what we 209 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: do very well. We know that they like to run 210 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: the ball a lot and so they was like, hey, 211 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: you know, corners, you gotta show up and fill in 212 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: those gaps and whenever we get crack blocks, and I 213 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: don't know why, but they kept running it to my side. 214 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: So I mean I would think after like the third 215 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: or fourth time, they were like, Okay, let's try to 216 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: the other side, but they kept coming back. So I 217 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: just kept, you know, throwing that body in there. And 218 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 1: that's what you gotta do. And for us as corners 219 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: to be able to tackle h in this league and 220 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: more so primarily in this division, that's very, very important 221 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: because most of these teams are run first type of offense. 222 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: And so when we can do that and make them 223 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: one dimensional and pass the ball like that gives us 224 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 1: an opportunity to do what we do best, and that's 225 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: covered Antonio. Man, it's just amazing to watch you. You're big. 226 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 1: You're big for a corner um, You've got great size, 227 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: You use your body, your physical you tackle, you can 228 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: walk up on a receiver and play press. Man. I mean, 229 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: you really look like you found a home here. Why 230 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: if you found a home with the Cardinals. Oh, Man, 231 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 1: I think it's just all God's timing. To be honest, 232 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: to be quite honest, Like I've been around the league 233 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 1: for a while. This is my fourth team, and I 234 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: just couldn't find that home or that place for me 235 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: to stick as far as getting the opportunities to play defense. 236 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: And so once I came here, I think being released 237 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: last year from Tempa, I came in and coaching events 238 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: was just like, hey, man, you're gonna play at some point, 239 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: any time, You're gonna play, And I think, what the 240 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: I mean? I played in the second game for sure, 241 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: Marco went down. I finished the game against Minnesota here 242 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: in the home and where they missed the field goal 243 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 1: and I did the like the infamous black the backflip 244 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 1: and the end of the game, and everybody was talking 245 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,599 Speaker 1: about and I played basically the whole second half. And 246 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 1: I didn't even really know the playbook like that, And 247 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: then Byron and Marco got hurt. I think it was 248 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 1: week five, and uh that was still with me, you know, 249 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: trying to learn the playbook and stuff on the fly. 250 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: So I had to start when we played San franc 251 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: for the first time in the home game, and I 252 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: was actually coming off an injury too, but we had 253 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: so many guys going that had went down in that 254 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 1: Rams game I knew. I was like, Damn, Marco got hurt, 255 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: Byron got hurt. I hurt because I got hurt in 256 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: that game as well, and I had to come out 257 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: and I didn't come back into the fourth quarter. So 258 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: I was like, man, I'm not going to miss out 259 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: on this opportunity to get my first start here and 260 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: show what I can do. Then we got that win 261 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: once I at that start, and so from their own 262 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 1: I kind of earned their trust and They've done nothing 263 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: but continuously increased my role as far as being on 264 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: the defense. And so I've been making the plays and 265 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: taking advantage of the opportunities that I've been presented with. 266 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: And so I'm just thankful. And the latest greatest example 267 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 1: of a member of the secondary playing through pain and 268 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 1: making it happen right Buddha Baker, And here he was 269 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: after the game and how he was able to play 270 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: defied the expectations he was going to miss two or 271 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: three weeks until he didn't. For me, I think of 272 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: every game as a playoff game. So they told me 273 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: it's a three to four week process. But the way 274 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: I worked, the way I did my treatment all week, 275 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: the way you know, there's on the Cardinals treatment staff. 276 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: Did I was able to play today and you know, 277 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: not a hundred, but did good enough when we got 278 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: to w We know what he does for you guys 279 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: on the field, but what do you do for you guys? 280 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 1: Just your spirit, just your mentality when you see him 281 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: out there and define the you know the forecast that 282 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 1: he was supposed to miss two or three weeks. Oh yeah, man, 283 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: that's just to show to his character and what type 284 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: of player in person that he is. He's just a 285 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: dog man. It's like you want that guy on the 286 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: field because he just give you that extra sensive juice 287 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: in that extra sensive fight. When you know that you 288 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: got a brother behind you that's just as willing to 289 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: get in that dog fight with you, then you are 290 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,599 Speaker 1: yourself like, man, they make it easier to play, and 291 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: he's not making any businesses, business decisions as far as 292 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: when it comes to making any tackles or any pass breakups. 293 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: He's getting in there, and so man, it's it's just 294 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: very very important, you know, to a defense like that. 295 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 1: We have to have that type of guy like that, 296 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: and we're thankful, as I said before, that we have 297 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: all the guys basically that our backups can come in.

So we want to get 310 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: your thoughts on that. And then of course the forty 311 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: nine Ers. How you guys were able to sweep the 312 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: Niners a year ago. You know they're out for revenge 313 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: this year for sure, and they also have in terms 314 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: of their passing game, nobody has more yards after catch 315 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: than forty nine Ers receivers. When it comes to tackling, 316 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: you had the eleven Guess what everyone's gonna have to 317 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: bring that aspect of their game to Mexico City. There's 318 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: no doubt about it. It's the Big Red Rage presented 319 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: by santan Ford and Gilbert. We are santan Ford. We 320 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: continue with Cardinals cornerback and leading tackler Antonio Hamilton. As 321 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: we continue with a big red rage. Snapped to Wolford 322 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: back to throw fires near your side. Cup bade to 323 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: catch run out of play immediately by Hamilton, pops out 324 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 1: rose deep middle and Hannah catches made by Cup that 325 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: he bumbles the ball. It's loose and they're gonna say incomplete. 326 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 1: They're gonna say that Cooper Cup never controlled it. What 327 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: a great job. Antonio Hamilton locked it away, Are you 328 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: kidding me? Stuck that paw in there and ripped the 329 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: pig out and up up the middle for acres no 330 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: running room as he is drilled by Antonio Hamilton in 331 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: the hole the twenty one yard line play action booting 332 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: to the right, getting rid of the passpot at the 333 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: twenty yard line. Get up to about the twenty five 334 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: is Hopkins. Hamilton on the tackle. Great job once again 335 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: defensively coming up and making that tackle first down for 336 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 1: the Rams on their twenty five A pass played to 337 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 1: the left and jumping in front and almost picking it 338 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: off was Hamilton. But it's incomplete. Ellen Robinson running the 339 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: zero route to the left of Wolford and Antonio Hamilton 340 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: jumped the robs. So you're saying, man, passion Wolf called 341 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: the name Antonio Hamilton a lot during that game. You'd 342 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: be right eleven tackle those two PBUs. I'm guessing you 343 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 1: really wanted that pick six, Oh Man, without a shadow 344 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: of a doubt, did you bang up your thumb on that? 345 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: If I might ask, Oh, no, So my index finger 346 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,679 Speaker 1: and my middle finger have been messed up for a 347 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: number of a number of weeks. And so if you 348 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: could go back and slow down and watch how the 349 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 1: ball hit my hand, it really if it would have 350 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 1: hit my pump, oh I would have walked down there 351 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,719 Speaker 1: easily without a doubt. But the way that it hit 352 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 1: my finger, it pushed my index and my middle finger back. 353 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: So and I don't really have a whole I didn't 354 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: have a whole lot of strength and at that time 355 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: and then it just ah, it's gruesome, so like to 356 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 1: have that when you need your hands and your fingers 357 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: like it's just the most aggravating thing in the world. Antonio. 358 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: What do you like to do in your free time? Oh? Man, 359 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: so I like to spend a lot of time with 360 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: my family. Um, whether that's you know, we sit at home, 361 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: we play a lot of uno, um like literally a lot, 362 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: a lot of you know, and uh, we like to 363 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: go to the movie and I like to take my 364 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 1: kids to the park and do just man. I just 365 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,719 Speaker 1: try to be present, really, just to be around my family. 366 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: So you have two young daughters and now you're expecting 367 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: a son soon right here? Oh, real, soon, real soon. 368 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: I think my wife she was talking about I think 369 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: what's it called the burking something, uh, burking hicks, I 370 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 1: think contractions, thinking that she was having them last night. 371 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: So I'm like, oh, weout Mexico. Just just just just 372 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 1: hold off till Tuesday or Monday, Monday, late Monday night. 373 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: When I get back in the name, We're good because 374 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: we got a home game. So this season, have you 375 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: learned anything about yourself this season? Oh? Yeah, yeah, I 376 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 1: really have. I've learned a lot that I'm in seven years. 377 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 1: You would think you would know everything about yourself as 378 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: far as when it comes to, you know, playing in 379 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: this league, but you don't, you know, So I try 380 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: to use every day to grow and I noticed that, man, 381 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: I fight like no matter what, no matter what, I fight, um, 382 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 1: even when the odds are stacked up against me, I 383 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: always fight. And you know, and I know that I 384 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 1: don't have control over everything, but I do try to 385 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: control what I can control the best of my ability. 386 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 1: And so with that, I try to go out and 387 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: put my my my best foot forward and I just 388 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: try to play as hard as I can, whether that's 389 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: on special teams, defense, and quite frankly who whatever positions 390 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 1: and that they needed me to do, I try to 391 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: do it at my best because I know that I'm 392 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: not playing for myself. I'm paying I'm playing for my family. 393 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: I want to take care of my family in the 394 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: way that I that I really want to and I 395 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 1: haven't gotten that yet, but I know it's coming. You 396 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: mentioned your defensive coordinator Vans Joseph. I don't know what 397 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: the question was, but essentially could have been, you know, 398 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: what have you learned about Antonio Hamilton. Here's the VJA. 399 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 1: I mean, he came out of camp as a starter. 400 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: He's getting back to what he was and in the summer, 401 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: you know, and to watch him play not only as 402 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: a cover guy Sunday, but as a as a run defender. 403 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,479 Speaker 1: I mean he made some plays on a running game 404 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: that hadn't been made in the wall, you know, and 405 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: the seeing b gaps, and that's that's the test of 406 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: his toughness in his sides. He's a big corner, but 407 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: he played his butt off. He's a guy that has 408 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: great confidence in this game. He studies, he's mature, he's tough, 409 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 1: so obviously he's playing good. So as he's playing good, 410 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: he's gonna play more for us. Well an undrafted guy, 411 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: I mean, you had to develop that toughness earlier. Oh yeah, 412 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 1: for sure, without a shot. I mean, just to forge 413 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: your career. And then I mentioned, you know, Coulte McCoy. 414 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: You tell us, so I was Colt helped you. I 415 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: was a quarterback, helped a cornerback man. That's that's almost 416 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: like the best teacher that you could possibly have, because 417 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,360 Speaker 1: he based off what I do, which is defend receivers. 418 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: He's the one that's throwing it to the receivers. So 419 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: any type of insight that I can gain from him 420 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: is like a plus. So with everything when he seen 421 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 1: me an off coverage, he like depending on the routes 422 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: like I was explaining UH to someone yesterday, like I 423 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,959 Speaker 1: had been beat on UH corner routes the last like 424 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: three weeks before last week, I had one against um 425 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: dk Metcalf, one against Justin Jefferson, and one against UH 426 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 1: someone Chris Olave No, no, no, not Chris Olivia. I 427 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: can't I can't remember thee. But either way, he was like, man, 428 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: you were in perfect position, the same way as the 429 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: coaches were telling man, you're in perfect, perfect position. You 430 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 1: just has to turn around and and and and take 431 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: advantage of the opportunity and make the play. Because all 432 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: those plays I was in face, but he gave me 433 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 1: an extra nugget that they essentially couldn't give me, and 434 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: that was the ball placement. So he was like, look, man, 435 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 1: when you're in this type of leverage and you're in 436 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 1: this position, I'm trying to throw the ball over here. 437 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 1: So when you when you feel yourself right here, you 438 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: can take a peep, know where that ball is going, 439 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: and stick your hand right there, and I guarantee that 440 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 1: ball going hit you nine times out of time. And 441 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 1: he's been dead on and so with everything like that, 442 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: like I said, I'm I'm extremely humble. I can learn 443 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: from anybody, and so I can take any type of 444 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 1: criticism from anybody too, because I just want to be 445 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,199 Speaker 1: as good of a player as I possibly can be. 446 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: And for him to tell me that, now, I was 447 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: just like, Man, Man, I really appreciate you. And uh. 448 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: I do the same thing with him. I'm like, hey, 449 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: cold you know, uh, because he's a great like he's 450 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: a student of the game too, and of course he's no. 451 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: He knows a lot and seen a lot. I like 452 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: Coke Man, instead of telling him to run around like this, 453 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: if you see we in this type of coverage, you know, 454 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: tell me to run a right this and then get 455 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,880 Speaker 1: right here, because that's our blind spot. And so Man, 456 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: we're always pick piggybacking off of each other, trying to 457 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: make each other better. And Iron Sharper as the iron. Yeah. 458 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: On that note right there, in Tonio, what part of 459 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: your game do you think you need to improve the most? Uh. 460 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: It's not to say that I'm perfect. I'm not perfect 461 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: by any means, but your confidence I really am. I'm 462 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 1: very confident in my game. Like I come in on 463 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 1: third downs and I cover the best receiver I'm not 464 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: covering just anybody. So a lot of the players that 465 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: were made those were the number one guys. I haven't 466 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 1: been giving up any places and any type of like slices. 467 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: So um, I remember in camp you were yapping with 468 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 1: de Hop Oh yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. I 469 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: know that I love to compete, man, and I just 470 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: I always can you know, I can be more sharper 471 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: on my press technique, I can always be more disciplined 472 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 1: with my eyes because you know, we're in a division 473 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: where a lot of these offenses they'd like to do 474 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: a lot of jets and orbits and motions, and you 475 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 1: have to make sure you put in your eyes in 476 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: the right place. And that's that what I would probably 477 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: say is the most important thing. It's just being better 478 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: with my eye progression, because that's very important in the 479 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: Niners obviously through a lot of that. But first, tell 480 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: us about Mexico City since you've been Wolf and I 481 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,239 Speaker 1: were there in two thousand and five, but you were 482 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,919 Speaker 1: there more recently with the Raiders, right, yeah, So what 483 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,360 Speaker 1: are you tell them? Like some of your teammates are like, hey, Antonio, 484 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 1: what's Mexico City gonna be all about? What are you 485 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,719 Speaker 1: telling them? Number One? It was super super cool if 486 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: you had never been to Mexico City. I went in 487 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: two thousand and sixteen when we played against the Houston Texans, 488 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: I think against hot yep and so the altitude is real, 489 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: for sure, it is real. I didn't play in that game, 490 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: but I remember warming up and I remember have time 491 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: walking back to the locker room because this is a 492 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: far away from the field, and I remember getting back 493 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: to the locker rooms like, Okay, why am I tired? 494 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: I'm not even doing anything. And we had a couple 495 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: of guys that had, you know, they needed their inhaler 496 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 1: or whatnot. So but what I was just telling them, like, man, 497 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: it's a it's an extremely dope environment. Like they're going 498 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: to be loud, like it's not going to be a 499 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: home and away team. They're gonna cheer for everybody about 500 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 1: everything that goes on. And I think they even had 501 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: to pause our game because they got so excited and 502 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: we're going, like going crazy. They started throwing like paper 503 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 1: airplanes on the field. I remember on the far side, 504 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: and man, it was so dope like that. That was 505 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: probably one of the funnest games, like honestly of my career, 506 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 1: even though I didn't play in it, and it was 507 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 1: just a cool atmosphere and environment because they're just so 508 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: used to football, you know what I mean. But to 509 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 1: have our game to come there, like man, they just 510 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,360 Speaker 1: embraced it and they just showed so much love. Speaking 511 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: of environments, what can you tell us about the forty 512 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: nine ers wide receiver room? What do you see on tape? Oh, 513 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 1: we know that they have you know, of course, they 514 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,439 Speaker 1: have a great group. They have a guy, they have 515 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: guys that are you know, masters in their roles. Everybody 516 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: doesn't do the same thing. Certain guys do certain things. 517 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 1: And we know Deebo Samuel he likes to get that 518 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: ball and when he got that ball in his hand, 519 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 1: you know, he's a phenomenal player, and so the same 520 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: without you he's more of their receiver crafty style of guy. 521 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 1: And uh, we know that. You know, when it comes 522 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: to the route running, he's going to be the guy. 523 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: In the same way with George Kittle. They do a 524 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,679 Speaker 1: lot of twelve and twenty one type of personnel. So 525 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 1: Killer is going to get that his fair share of 526 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 1: work too. And he's a great athlete. He can run 527 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: all the routes too, and he can make you miss. 528 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 1: And he's fast, He's not like slow. So man, I 529 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 1: mean like they have a great group of guys. And 530 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: even with um Christian McCaffrey that just got there, that 531 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: just made them even better. So they got a lot, 532 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: they got a lot of weapons, just like we do. 533 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 1: And so they are who they are though, you know, 534 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: even with everything that they are, they are a run 535 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 1: first style of offense. And we know that we have 536 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: to be gap sound going into this week and guys, 537 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: and we have to you know when out one on 538 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: one matchups with the ones that we get. And Jimmy 539 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,479 Speaker 1: G is the niners starting quarterback is thirty nine and nineteen. 540 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: Think about that. And the only quarterback right now who's 541 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,959 Speaker 1: better on third and eight plus is Patrick Mahomes. So 542 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: Jimmy G quietly having a pretty darn good year. Let 543 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 1: me ask you when it comes to receivers, what does 544 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown when he eventually comes back, whether it's this 545 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,679 Speaker 1: week or next or whatever, what does he do for 546 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: the Cardinals? What sort of challenge is that going to 547 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 1: be for secondaries to go against the hop Hollywood Brown 548 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: and Rondale Moore. Yeah, so he just spreads everybody out 549 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: like it's not gonna be you can lean over here 550 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: with the hop anymore. You can't really double team him 551 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 1: because then you're gonna leave another corner one on one 552 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: with one of the fastest guys in the league. And 553 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: then he can run every route. So if you're trying 554 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: to play it over top people whom he sitting down, 555 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna take that first down all day long. And 556 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 1: so we can dink and dunk the ball downfield and 557 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: we can just do what we want to with teams. 558 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: And we still have aj Green too. He's a beast. 559 00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: So when he get out there on the field with 560 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: all the weapons that week, it's just ridiculous. And I 561 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: just you know, I'm excited to see once we get 562 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: all of our weapons back and how we use them. 563 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 1: And I just pray that, you know, everybody just embraced 564 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: their rolling and whoever got the hot hand, I hope 565 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: they give just keep feeding because we got all the 566 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:15,919 Speaker 1: guys that we got, all the twos and guys that 567 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: can really get the job done him by himselves. Who's 568 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: the best wide receiver you covered for this season this season? 569 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 1: I would have to say Justin Jefferson, Justin Jefferson that 570 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 1: catch that throw and catch by Kirk Cousins that he made. Yeah, 571 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 1: Like I said, I was in perfect position, and Kirk 572 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: Cousins put that ball only where he could get it, 573 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: and he had to do the even harder job with 574 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: making the catch, and he made it like almost with 575 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: a one hand against his body. He didn't give me 576 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,919 Speaker 1: an opportunity to stick my hand in there because he 577 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 1: threw his hands up late. And that young boy's crafty. 578 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: He knows what he's doing, and so that's just a 579 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: hat off to him. And uh yeah, I would say 580 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,679 Speaker 1: that's the best receiver Cartin look at to catch him 581 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: in this last week. He o'dealed that one with that 582 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: one hand or oh my goodness, that's uh well, the 583 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: hard knock camera's wolf. When they get around Antonio Hamilton, 584 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: they're gonna have quite a story and they're gonna have 585 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:08,400 Speaker 1: a great interview. We appreciate all your time. Antonio. There 586 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: you go back to your brother. We continue with a 587 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: big red rate presented by Santan four King Gilbert, three 588 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 1: receivers right, one left, second and goal on the six 589 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: yard line. McCoy flanked to his left by Connor. We 590 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: now motions out light to the right and snap to 591 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 1: McCoy looking left. It's a fade left, corner of the end. 592 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: Zoe H J. Green with a great crab touchdown. The HJ. 593 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: Green of old his back. He's made two incredible crabs. 594 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 1: Cold McCoy meanwhile, continues to deliver. This offense looks entirely 595 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: different right now, sixteen to three with the extra point coming. 596 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 1: It all starts with protection for col McCoy and on 597 00:28:55,200 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: the fade it's J Green the scarecrow. I want to 598 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: stick baby about it. It was hard not to notice 599 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 1: after the game when AJ Green said, Hey, Colt, trust me, 600 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: and then Colt said I trust AJ. So they definitely 601 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: have a chemistry going. And you saw it right there 602 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: on what was a dagger of a touchdown in a 603 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: lot of ways right before halftime to make it seventeen 604 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: three Cardinals get the win. We're talking all about it 605 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: here on the Big Red Rate presented by Santan ford 606 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: In Gilbert Paul kelvc Ron wolf Lee, and we were 607 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: just joined by Antonio Hamilton. Wolf Your thoughts and impressions 608 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: on Antonio Hamilton Man, you talk about impressive, you know, Polly, Honestly, 609 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: I think the only thing better than Antonio Hamilton ends 610 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 1: in visiting with him is how well he's playing on 611 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: the field. I think that's about the only thing going 612 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 1: that's a little bit better than Antonio Hamilton talking to 613 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: us Man, he was fantastic. He expounded on so many 614 00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: of the questions, really opened up about his cooking incidents. 615 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 1: Of course, the accident something that really set him back, 616 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: and it's his own personal development as well. Man. I 617 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: enjoyed that so much, Paul, I know you did too. Yeah. 618 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: And the fact that he got the primary assignment on 619 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup last week without Byron Murphy. So a fans, 620 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: Joseph hasn't hesitated to use Antonio Hamilton in some high 621 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: leverage situations all season long. But you know, it's just 622 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: the way this season has gone. You go into a 623 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 1: game and you hear you guys reference it there in 624 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: the play call. You're minus four starters on the offensive line, 625 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,719 Speaker 1: you don't have your franchise left tackle, you don't have 626 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: your number one cover corner, you're on your four different 627 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: kicker for Pete's sake, and the Cardinals found a way. 628 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: And I tell you, the more I reflect on that 629 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: win is just what guys were saying afterwards is that 630 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: there was a belief based on last year. Obviously, you know, 631 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: winning division games on the road. That's what Colt McCoy does. Yeah, Paul, 632 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: it's super, super impressive what Colt McCoy has been able 633 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 1: to do. I mean, this guy, once again, when you're 634 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: talking about the four games that he is filled in 635 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: to be three in one right now and beat everybody 636 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 1: in the NFC West, that's it says so much about Colt. 637 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: Just watching him on hard knocks as well. He's thirty 638 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 1: six years old and he looks like he's eighteen, does 639 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: folly and you know, I mean just said the leadership 640 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: that he brings to the table and the mentorship that 641 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: he brings to Kyler Murray. I just it's one of 642 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: the best things about this team and this roster is 643 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: the fact they have Colt McCoy's or backup quarterback and 644 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 1: you know what, he's almost an assistant offensive coordinator. What 645 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: did Kurt Warner do for the Cardinals? What did Carson 646 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: Palmer do? They were very involved in the game planning. 647 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: When you've spent a decade plus in the league and 648 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: you've seen every defensive scheme and you know defensive coordinators 649 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: on a first name basis. Yeah, I don't think it 650 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 1: was any surprise really when Hard Knocks showed this, and 651 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna listen to it right now. Here's Cole McCoy 652 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: during the game week getting ready for the Rams in 653 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: the quarterback room. I don't want to go into this 654 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: game if anybody has confusion on what they're supposed to do. Good. 655 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: If we don't know what to do and if it's 656 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: not detailed then dialed in, then we're not gonna beat 657 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 1: this team. If we know what to do and if 658 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 1: the space's right and do what you do your job, 659 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: will beat this team. That's the that's it will beat anybody. 660 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: That's the bottom line. So when we talk about like 661 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: what can we do, it's just these it's these little 662 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: details that are just adding up. We'll go white out. 663 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 1: Then it's not one position, group being the place you're 664 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: supposed to be and get the ball like when you're 665 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: ready to pull the trigger. Most of the time somebody's open, 666 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 1: sign the one we're better across the board and all 667 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: this stuff. Hey oh yeah, wait for me, man, wait 668 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: for me. I mean like little things, Hey, it's the 669 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 1: details of it. Well, if you know what. On his 670 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: TV show this week, Cliff Kingsbury, he mentioned how adamant 671 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: that quote was to start the week about the ball 672 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: has to come out quick. Yeah, hey, because of our 673 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 1: offensive line situation, but b because of the Rams defensive 674 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: front and Aaron Donald and you know he had a 675 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: plan in his own mind going into this game. Yeah. No, 676 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: this is what I love about it right here. It 677 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: really is. It's a game plan. And obviously they knew 678 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: what the game plan was going to be all week long. 679 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 1: Hard Knocks definitely showed us that they were talking about it. Hey, 680 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: the ball is coming out. Man is space? You hear 681 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 1: him mention the words space. They knew the zone was 682 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 1: going to be there. Run your route, be in the 683 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 1: right place, and you'll get the ball. The little things 684 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: he was talking about going out and doing your job, executing, 685 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 1: being where you're supposed to be right there, that was 686 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 1: so evident on the first possession was not against the Rams, PAULI, Well, 687 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 1: they went down eleven consecutive passes in a row to 688 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: start the game. Never and you want to talk about 689 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: a Sicilian message Polly being to the Rams right there 690 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: at that point in time, you know, hey, Aaron Donald. 691 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: Do you think Aaron Donald thought that was going to 692 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 1: be the case. Do you think Sean McVeigh thought that 693 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: was going to happen. Do you think any Ram thought 694 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: the Cardinals were going to come out and give Aaron 695 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 1: Donald and that pass rush the opportunity to get to 696 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 1: Colt McCoy. No, man, eleven consecutive passes in a row, 697 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,360 Speaker 1: and I think that took him by surprise. Yet that 698 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,359 Speaker 1: was the game plan all week long, and you know what, 699 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,399 Speaker 1: we were there and you still learn things in hard 700 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 1: knocks like that, you go behind the scenes. Obviously, even 701 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 1: on his big fourth down throw to number four to 702 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 1: Rondelle Moore, the shot that Colt McCoy took, he hung 703 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,880 Speaker 1: in there and man, he just got lit up and 704 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 1: he's still completed. Would ended up being that one hit 705 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 1: of grab by ron Dale Moore is, you know, just 706 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,439 Speaker 1: a perfect toss. What other takeaways did you have from 707 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: that episode episode two last night? Well, yeah, Paul, you know, 708 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: I mean, just Calvin Beach him, what a dog Calvin 709 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 1: Beach him? Is the running with Leonard Floyd, And I mean, honestly, 710 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: all game long talking to Leonard Floyd and just some 711 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: of the things he was saying to him, Uh, you know, 712 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: I just don't think of Calvin Beecham being that way. 713 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: He's so articulate, he's so intelligent. You know, we talk 714 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 1: about it all the time, bally hoo Hey, if he 715 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,439 Speaker 1: ran for president, I'm voting for him. Hey, I wrote 716 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,240 Speaker 1: him in for governor. I wrote in Kelvin Beecham for governor. 717 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 1: I'm even more convinced now. And just to see him 718 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: out there totally in the face of Leonard Floyd, just 719 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: trash talking him in a very matter of fact kind 720 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: of way. The leadership. Also when he was talking to 721 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 1: Lucidas Smith, right, play football, just play football. You know, 722 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: I love the way that he was not joking around. 723 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 1: He was speaking very directly. He was a little upset. 724 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 1: Beach has got a little something something coming out of 725 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 1: the side of his neck. And that was one of 726 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: my big takeaways. And you know what we should have 727 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 1: figured because in training camp he had a moment in 728 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 1: training camp there was an eleven on eleven red zone 729 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,919 Speaker 1: goal line session and he wasn't happy and he made 730 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: it known when he came to the sideline. So that 731 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: was good stuff. And yeah, you're right, the way he 732 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,879 Speaker 1: talked to Lucida Smith the sixth round, rookie. How about 733 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray and what he said during the dinner, the 734 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: Old Line dinner that Kyler attended, and he told Lucida's 735 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: flat out, He's like, you're thinking too much. Just play 736 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: and for Lucidas tab that sort of game. And I 737 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 1: didn't look at the film and Aaron Donald wasn't over 738 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,640 Speaker 1: him exclusively. He was up and down the defensive front. 739 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 1: But you guys did not call Aaron Donald's name a 740 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 1: lot in that game. No, you're right about that, Polly, 741 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 1: and you know, listen, Lucida Smith has an awful lot 742 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,279 Speaker 1: of growth that has got to happen, of course in 743 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: his career, but that was an excellent debut I think 744 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 1: from Lucidas and Polly. Going back to your comment about 745 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, I didn't even know that was Tyler Murray. 746 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 1: I don't when it first happened, you know, because he 747 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 1: had the hood on and it didn't sound like Kyler. No, 748 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 1: he was so definitive in what he was saying, and 749 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:17,359 Speaker 1: so a man, I was really really encouraged when I 750 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,879 Speaker 1: saw that. I love the way he was speaking to Lucidas. 751 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: I also liked angry JJ Watt. You know, obviously the 752 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:28,240 Speaker 1: penalty wasn't good, but angry JJ is a good JJ 753 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 1: and he was the best ninety nine on the field 754 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: during that game. So Moore please of that. And it 755 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: was just interesting to see how nervous everybody was speaking 756 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: a Lucidas Smith right, just with the situation at O 757 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: line and facing Aaron Donald. There was some genuine nervousness 758 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:48,719 Speaker 1: and anxiety going into that game. Guess what going into 759 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 1: episode fifty of the Dave Pash Podcast. This special guest 760 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 1: is our own ron Wolf.

Yeah, we were talking about when 764 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: Pass had hair on his head and not in his nose. 765 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 1: We were talking about that, Pauli and talking about what 766 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 1: it was like fifteen years ago and stuff like that. 767 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 1: Holmes of course, had some really good jokes to play, 768 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of bloopers. We continue with a 769 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: big red rage right after this. We have one hundred 770 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: three thousand, four hundred and sixty seven on hand, an 771 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 1: NFL regular season record. Wow, how about that for a number? 772 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,240 Speaker 1: I wish everybody can feel what one hundred thousand people 773 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: feel like on the field. Like you're on the field 774 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:39,759 Speaker 1: in one hundred thousand people are watching you. It's just different. Man. 775 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 1: That's former Cardinals safety Robert Griffith. All the players knew 776 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,720 Speaker 1: the fans we're going to be a factor. El Grande, 777 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 1: former Pro Bowl pass rusher bertram Berry. It really was 778 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 1: a different energy where the fans were going nuts the 779 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,720 Speaker 1: entire time, whether something good happened for us or something 780 00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:00,360 Speaker 1: bad happened for us. I just remember the crowd yelling 781 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,600 Speaker 1: no matter what, they just wanted to see us go 782 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 1: out there and play. I just remember being allowed the 783 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 1: entire game in a good way. That people were so 784 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 1: excited that there was an NFL game going on. In 785 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 1: a general sense, they were just rooting for something big 786 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 1: to happen. Every play. It felt like a big party. 787 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 1: It felt like a big party the people that were 788 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:26,800 Speaker 1: just hungry to be a part of that first regular 789 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: season game outside of the US. Rolando Canto right there, 790 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 1: former Cardinals offensive linemen talking about the first regular season 791 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 1: NFL game outside the United States in league history two 792 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 1: thousand and five, when the Cardinals beat the forty nine 793 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:45,439 Speaker 1: ers at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City, which is where 794 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:48,320 Speaker 1: the Cardinals are headed again. That was straight from Cardinals 795 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:51,360 Speaker 1: Folk Tales, the Emmy Award winning documentary series. All I 796 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 1: have to do is search Cardinals Folk Tales.

If I don't know if he 801 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,719 Speaker 1: caught the quote from Antonio Hamilton earlier Cardinals Cornerback, he said, 802 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: it's an extremely dope environment. Yeah, he repeated that a 803 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 1: couple of times. Yes, I don't know if I can 804 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 1: really use that and pull off that quote. Extremely dope 805 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 1: is how he described the environment. What do you think? 806 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 1: What are you telling people about the trip? Yeah, you know, 807 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 1: I like everybody else, So it was so incredibly loud, 808 00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 1: and I just remember all of the people. How many 809 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 1: people can you jam into a stadium and how huge 810 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:40,240 Speaker 1: the stadium was. I was blown away by that also too, 811 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 1: just what they would cheer at. Yes, as you know, 812 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: once again, Neil Rackers was it was Neil Rackers was 813 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,760 Speaker 1: it not poly I'm remembering that correctly. He was kicking 814 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 1: off and weren't they all just going nuts as he 815 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: was warming up and when he went to actually kick 816 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 1: it off to start the game, wasn't it? I mean, 817 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: they were cheering incredibly wild at that point in time. 818 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 1: It was like he was the rock star and the 819 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 1: rest of the Cardinals were his backup band. Yeah, it 820 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 1: was like it was like Neil Rackers and the Cardinals. 821 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: That's basically what it was. And you're right, it was 822 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,439 Speaker 1: two hours before the game. We're doing the pregame show, like, well, 823 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: what's the standing ovation for people losing their mind? And 824 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 1: it's Neil Rackers just warming up and he hit And 825 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 1: I talked We talked to Matt Prador about this today, 826 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,799 Speaker 1: actually yours, Julian Jim MoMA hundred. We talked to Matt 827 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:30,479 Speaker 1: Prador today and he said he remembered the story because 828 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 1: see Andy Lee and I talked to Andy Lee yesterday 829 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 1: was the punter for the forty nine ers in that game. 830 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: That was his second years. Andy Lee is one of 831 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 1: two forty year olds to start this season, Tom Brady 832 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 1: and Andy Lee, and he said he remembers Neil Rackers 833 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 1: and Joe Nenny hitting seventy yard field goals in warm ups. Yeah, Paully, 834 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 1: that's because what it's almost eight thousand feet Mexico City correct, 835 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: higher than flagstaff. It's like seventy three hundred plus. I 836 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,359 Speaker 1: looked that up, I wonder, and so it's higher than flagstaff. 837 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 1: It really flies the ball. And so ay Prater said today, 838 00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 1: if he's tasked with setting an NFL record, Yeah, he 839 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,239 Speaker 1: feels confident in that atmosphere. Yeah, you know, it's going 840 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: to be so interesting to see this matchup. Of course, 841 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 1: the Cardinals against the forty nine ers. And when I 842 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,400 Speaker 1: think of the San Francisco forty nine ers, I no 843 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:25,800 Speaker 1: longer think of Kyle Shanahan and the use of twenty 844 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 1: one personnel and twelve personnel. I really don't. Yeah, they 845 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 1: run the ball, and they still continue to try to 846 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,839 Speaker 1: attack the line of scrimmage in the North South Way. 847 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 1: They're just not having a ton of success actually doing it. 848 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:42,319 Speaker 1: Even with Christian McCaffrey. Now again, I don't want to 849 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 1: make it sound like he's not dangerous. You better believe 850 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: he's dangerous. He'll take it to the house. But for me, 851 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 1: it's it's really about their defense, Paul. I mean, that's 852 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:54,720 Speaker 1: how good their defense really is. They're a physical team. 853 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 1: You know that. Cliff has told us that how physical 854 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 1: they are, especially on the line end of scrimmage. But man, 855 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 1: that defense, on that front seven, Polly, it's probably the 856 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 1: best in the National Football League. Well, they've allowed fewer 857 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 1: than twenty points in seven o their nine games. They've 858 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 1: held the opponent's scoreless in the second half of the 859 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 1: last two games. They're number one in total d they're 860 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: number one against the run. They're the number four scoring defense. 861 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 1: I'll say this though, they've had injuries in the second area, 862 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:27,879 Speaker 1: especially at corner, a couple of devastating injuries. If if 863 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,359 Speaker 1: you can get time for Cool McCoy or Kyler Murray. 864 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,320 Speaker 1: We have no idea at this point who's going to start. 865 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 1: I mean, do you think with the Cardinals weapons that 866 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,399 Speaker 1: could be a real advantage, because, yeah, they just beat 867 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,759 Speaker 1: the Chargers, but the Chargers were without Keenan Allen and 868 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:45,799 Speaker 1: Mike Williams. Yes, the risk reward is there? Is it not? Yes, 869 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:47,400 Speaker 1: you want to come out and try to throw the 870 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,319 Speaker 1: ball eleven times against the forty nine ers, I don't 871 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 1: know about bad, Polly. I don't know, man, but to 872 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 1: your point, that might be the only weakness on the 873 00:43:56,960 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball. Here's the thing. Car swept 874 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 1: the Niners last year. They've won eleven to the last 875 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 1: fourteen against the forty nine ers, so we'll see they 876 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 1: go in with a bit of confidence. Both quarterbacks beat 877 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,960 Speaker 1: the forty Niners last year. Now, Jimmy g has been 878 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:17,719 Speaker 1: pretty darn effective this year. We mentioned how on third 879 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,439 Speaker 1: and eight plus he's second only to Patrick Mahomes. He's 880 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,839 Speaker 1: not really turning the ball over. So we'll see. It's 881 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:26,239 Speaker 1: gonna be a playoff atmosphere. That much we know for sure. 882 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 1: Hey for Jim al Monro, Lauren Coble, Antonio Hamilton our 883 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,439 Speaker 1: special guest to night, Ron Wolfley of Paul calBC.
