10
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: to go one hand to catch in a touchdown? Oh baby, Mommettfield.

11
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: Here's Craig Griolu, three time Pro bowler Kyle Vandenbosch, and

12
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 1: thirteen year NFL veteran Drew Stanton. So I know neither

13
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: one of you are going to agree with me on

14
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: one I'm gonna say next, but just stay with me

15
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: here for a moment. The best thing about Sunday's Lawsons

16
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: Seattle is that they play again on Thursday. Short week,

17
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: quick turnaround, easier to quickly forget what happened during those

18
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: sixty minutes since Seattle or No, I'm getting some some

19
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: nods and maybe a little. I mean neither. No one

20
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,119
Speaker 1: likes the short week. I completely agree with you. Yeah,

21
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 1: I am a d on board with you. Well, speaking

22
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,399
Speaker 1: like a backup quarterback versus Kyle Vannibash who was on

23
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 1: the field for about nine the defense exactly. Wow, we're

24
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: throwing barbs now, I agree with that as well. Um.

25
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: You know, the amazing thing about NFL athletes, especially when

26
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: you're around the game long enough, is how quickly you

27
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 1: do move on. Excuse me, even when you do have

28
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: film on Mondays or Tuesdays, you come in, Um, you

29
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: got to put it behind you quickly and m you know,

30
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: I'm I'm assuming with this short week, they don't watch

31
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: the film. Um, they probably just do an overview of

32
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: what things went well, what things they need to work on,

33
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: how this team is going to regroup moving forward. And

34
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: then you get right into your game plan because you

35
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: have no time to feel sorry for yourself, You have

36
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: no time to even really make corrections this week. You

37
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: move on to a whole new scouting report, You come

38
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: up with a game plan. I mean today is let's see,

39
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: today is Friday of a game week already, so you

40
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: know you're gearing up for a game Thursday. Cardinals will

41
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: host the New Orleans Saints. Primetime. Five fifteen is the

42
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: kickoff one thirty. Pregame coverage begins here on the Arizona

43
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: Cardinals Radio Network. Before we get to that Drew, let's

44
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 1: because we will look back at what happened in Seattle

45
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: nineteen to nine the final. The offense just managed three points,

46
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: but they were three first quarter points, so we can

47
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: eliminate that stat throw that out the window. But this offense,

48
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 1: outside of that opening drive, just was never able to get,

49
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: in the words of the head coach, into rhythm and

50
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: to sync. And really that's been the case since week one. Yeah, well,

51
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 1: I think a lot of it has to do again,

52
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 1: you look at crucial situations and what they're doing in

53
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: those situations four for fourteen on third down is not

54
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: going to be sustainable. You look at the red zone

55
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: when they get in there. I also think that maybe

56
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: they want to look at kicking field goals, but we

57
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 1: also have come to realize that that's what Cliff Kingsbury

58
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: is going to do. You can't sit there in the

59
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: fourth court and say, man, I wish I would have

60
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 1: those six points back where we're kicking the field goals,

61
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: and I understand, you know, the kicking situation is fluid

62
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 1: at this point in time, and they're trying to find somebody.

63
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: They're not guaranteed points. But at the same time, I

64
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: am under the premise of you get as many points

65
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 1: as you can in that first half. I don't care

66
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: what it looks like. I don't care how ugly it is,

67
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: because you don't want to sit there and kick yourself

68
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: and say, man, I really wish we would that as

69
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: opposed to going for a touchdown or trying to sustain

70
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: some of these drives. But that's the way the NFL

71
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: is going, right, That's the analytical portion of it of saying, Okay, well,

72
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: you know we've got a seventy two percent chance of

73
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: doing this if we get this here and this and

74
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: this and all, that doesn't matter. I think you have

75
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: to be able to sense what's going on. And this

76
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: team has not been able to sustain some of these drives.

77
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: So just if you do get that fourth and two,

78
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: that fourth and one and you prolong a drive, are

79
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: you going to go down and then have to kick

80
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: a shorter field goal? I mean, look, these kickers are

81
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: getting paid, They've got to be able to put it

82
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: through the uprights. And I think that's something that we

83
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: can sit here and feel sorry for ourselves about, or

84
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: say the kicking whoever is up on game that it's

85
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: kicking the ball, we are putting all of our eggs

86
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: in his basket to say he's going to make it

87
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: within fifty or b reason, We'll give him something that's

88
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 1: tangible to feel good about that. Because points are a

89
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: premium in this league, especially against the Seattle defense, that

90
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,119
Speaker 1: everyone's gonna a little. You know, this is thirty second

91
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: statistical in every category. No, there's still a defense that

92
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: has pride in what they do. They are still professional athletes.

93
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: They have a scheme, they have a way of trying

94
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: to stop you. And I think that this is a

95
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: team right now in Arizona Cardinals team in general that

96
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: is playing not to lose as opposed to plane to win. Well,

97
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 1: you mentioned the decisions not to kick field goal. There

98
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: were four or three after that initial drive. You kick

99
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: field goals on those three drives. You don't miss a

100
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: pat that's ten points. What's the difference in the ball

101
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: game on Sunday you lose by ten? Now the kicking

102
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 1: sit Matt Prador still don't know about his availability this week.

103
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 1: Matt Am Mendola has been released. Rodrigo Blankenship has been

104
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: signed to the practice squad. He's out there right as

105
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: we speak here as the Cardinals are going through a walkthrough.

106
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: But that's the kicking situation overall, Kyle, this offense needs

107
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 1: to figure something out. Yes, DeAndre Hopkins comes back. Yes,

108
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson is now in the fold. But you lose

109
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown for an indefinite period of time. That's what

110
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury has said. And he also lose Justin pu

111
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: for the rest of the season because of an ACL injury.

112
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,359
Speaker 1: And when Pew went down in a first quarter, that

113
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:39,160
Speaker 1: was when that offense basically stopped working at all. Yeah,

114
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: that's it's two big losses. I mean, typically, I think

115
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: from the outside you don't appreciate when you lose an

116
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: offensive linement, particularly an interior offensive lineman. But we saw

117
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: earlier in the year when Justin Pugh wasn't able to play,

118
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 1: how big of a difference it made. He is a leader,

119
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: he is a technician. He gets the job done when

120
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: he's in there, you know, And to your point, it

121
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: appeared like should be able to pound it at them

122
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: all game, and um it was. You know, up to

123
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,039
Speaker 1: this point, it was the worst performance this offensive line

124
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 1: has put forth, um, both in the run game and

125
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: pass protection, giving up six sex um. And you know

126
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: that's that's got to be fixed. And and for this

127
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: offense to work. When this offense is really clicking, um,

128
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 1: you know they have they get one first down and

129
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: get up on the ball and keep moving. It's all

130
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: about tempo. But you can't have tempo when you go

131
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: three and out, four and out, three and out, four

132
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: and out. I mean you've you've got to get the

133
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: chains moving, have success um on your first few plays,

134
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: and then this offense gets going in and you set

135
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: things up for later in the game. I mean typically, uh,

136
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,479
Speaker 1: you know, screen passes, um, you know, these these perimeter

137
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: plays and these these horizontal plays that everybody seems to

138
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: be complaining about. Those are available when you set other

139
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 1: things up. When you have success running the ball north south,

140
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: When you have success, um, you know, working the ball

141
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 1: down the field and you complete a few passes, then

142
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: those those short passes in screen passes have more success.

143
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: But you know we're not getting that early success within

144
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: our offense that sets things up for later in the game. Again,

145
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: the final score from Seattle nineteen to nine Cardinals dropped

146
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 1: to two and four. Here's the head coach, Cliff Kingsbury,

147
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: between you know, not having the right calls and then

148
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: just not executing as well as we can. We didn't

149
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: play it to how good we think we can be,

150
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: and so it's kind of, like I said, it's kind

151
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: of been the theme of the season so far. On

152
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: offense started off though well, with those first two drives

153
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: twenty four plays, one hundred and thirty one yards and

154
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: six first downs. The next seven drives totaled six first downs,

155
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: and this again was against one of the worst defenses

156
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: in the league, Drew. I know it's yes any given Sunday,

157
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: but on paper, that should not happen, and it did

158
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: happen on Sunday, which has left a lot of people

159
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: scratching their heads and wondering what's going on and can

160
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 1: it be fixed? Yeah. Well, I think one thing that

161
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: I don't like to see in the trend, and I've

162
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: talked about a little bit before, is seeing Kyler rush

163
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: so much. I know everybody wants to do that, but

164
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: I think there is a psyche in a quarterback's mind,

165
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 1: especially somebody as talented and gifted as he is. If

166
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 1: that first reads not open, he's going to scramble. I

167
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: mean to have ten rushers. Fantastic that he had a

168
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: hundred yards obviously broke that long one. But at the

169
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: same time, your mindset starts to shift of Okay, you

170
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: become more of a runner, then staying in the pocket

171
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: and using your feet and dispersing the ball and doing

172
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: all these things. And to Kyle's point, you've got to

173
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: be able to attack all areas of the field. You've

174
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: got to be able to play smash mouth football, you've

175
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: got to be able to set up play action stuff.

176
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: And there's an intermediate passing game that really hasn't been

177
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 1: tapped into yet within this offense. The quick games there,

178
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,079
Speaker 1: they're trying to push the ball down the field, but

179
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 1: they haven't been able to have success with it. Well,

180
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: how can you do that? You try to displace guys,

181
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 1: You try and get the run game going, You try

182
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: to get to that second level by you know, doing

183
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,959
Speaker 1: high lows. All of these things that you can just again,

184
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: it's a work in progress. You're trying to find a

185
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: comfort level with Kyler Murray of you know, the sibness

186
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: between that and play calling. It's just not there now.

187
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: There is still opportunity to get this fixed if we

188
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: really look at it and before we start, you know,

189
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: going chicken little and this guy is falling in. The

190
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: biggest thing you can do, the easiest path to the

191
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 1: playoffs is winning your division. It's not like they're in

192
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 1: the NFC East right now and saying, man, we are

193
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: looking up were the commanders and we have no chance.

194
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: Right they have everything out in front of them they

195
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: need to do. They just have to get it fixed

196
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: and get it fixed quickly. It's the men in that

197
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: locker room. They're going to get it done. It's the players.

198
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: The coaches can only coach and do so much. I

199
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: think that the scheme is in place there. Obviously, defensively,

200
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 1: they're doing a tremendous job of playing above and beyond offensively.

201
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: This team is built to do that, and injuries are

202
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: going to happen. Guys are come in, they're going to

203
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: come out. Hollywood Brown, it stinks you make a trade

204
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: for Robbie Anderson, which is really hard to say that

205
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: you're going to count on this guy and everybody's been

206
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: sitting there waiting for this week to come because DeAndre

207
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 1: Hopkins is coming back. Okay, so now is the time

208
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: to see it. If it doesn't happen. The excuse at

209
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 1: that point, Defense, as you mentioned, has been holding up

210
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 1: its end of the bargain again, holding another opponent, fourth

211
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: straight opponent to twenty or fewer yards, yet only one

212
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: win in those four games. Afterwards post game in the

213
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 1: locker rooms, Davin Collins talking with Paul CALVISI, I think

214
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 1: a lot of guys are just pissed off because we lost.

215
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,439
Speaker 1: You know, we gotta see how we're practicing, to you

216
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: what we're doing, and go fix it. Something's got to change,

217
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 1: you know. If we do the same thing over and

218
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 1: over again and then he expects a different outcome, it's

219
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: gonna it's what's called insanity. You're not gonna get anything

220
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: from it. You are a third of the way through

221
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,839
Speaker 1: the regular season, just like that. You only have so

222
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 1: much time remaining. Yeah, there are time to solve it

223
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: and fix it, but I'll go back. You can't rely

224
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: on just one individual to come in and save the day.

225
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 1: And even Kingsbury on Monday said Drew that Hopkins can't

226
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: be counted on to be the savior. No, and he's

227
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: still got to get himself in football shape. Right. You

228
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:55,719
Speaker 1: don't just show up and you can do all of

229
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: these things. There's a vast difference between football shape and

230
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: being able to just stay on the side and get

231
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: your cardio up and do all these things. I mean,

232
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 1: Marcus Golden is getting after the quarterback now. His hiatus

233
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: that he had, I think it was a detriment to him.

234
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: So you look at this, but going into this season,

235
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: some of the concerns that we had of Zaven Collins

236
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: is going to step up. A lot of these guys

237
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: are starting to answer the bell. It's some of these

238
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: veteran players or other guys that you're counting on that

239
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: really need to raise their level of play or just

240
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: be consistent within it. I think that's really what you're

241
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: looking for. And again, you don't have to hit the

242
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 1: panic button by any means. And that's a trigger word

243
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 1: for everybody in the NFL right now because some of

244
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: these teams that were picked to be higher aren't there.

245
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: There is this unwritten defensive scheme going on right now

246
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: that I don't think anybody's talking about but really what

247
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 1: you're starting to see all these defensive coordinators are just

248
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: playing super sound defense. They're playing zone defense. They're making

249
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: these athletic quarterbacks that scramble around, make big plays, throw

250
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: the ball down the field. They're just making them be soft.

251
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: And then in situational times, they're coming after them. They're

252
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: heating them up, they're trying to catch them where they

253
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: don't know what to do and then win that battle

254
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 1: when it matters most. They'll say, okay, well, let you

255
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:08,839
Speaker 1: go on a seventeen play drive and then maybe kick

256
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: a field goal or you're going to go for it

257
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 1: on fourth down, because that's what analytics says. So these

258
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: defenses right now are far more advanced to what's going

259
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: on and playing into the hands of all of all

260
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: these things. Of the product that has now become college

261
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,199
Speaker 1: has manifested itself in the NFL, and this bend but

262
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 1: breakdown style defense is really lending to these teams that

263
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 1: are finding ways to win. It's easy to gain yards.

264
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: Cardinals outgained the Seahawks three hundred fifteen to two ninety six,

265
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: but in the red zone, Coyle between the two teams

266
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 1: one for seven scoring touchdowns, and this team has had

267
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: red zone problems before, but now the red zone seems

268
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 1: to extend to the thirty. You know, we a lot

269
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: of the conversation is this defense is playing great, the

270
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: offense is struggling. The offense has fifty two more yards

271
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 1: than the defense has given up this year. I mean,

272
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 1: the offense is moving, the ball is capitalizing when you

273
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 1: have those opportunities that we're missing. Four times the Cardinals

274
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 1: got inside the Seahawks thirty yard line, got three points.

275
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,120

288
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 1: that was week one in which he had five catches

289
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 1: for one hundred and two yards. Since Week one eight

290
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: catches for one hundred and four yards, things obviously did

291
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: not work out in Carolina. Cardinals acquire him for future

293

Speaker 1: Real and Drew Standon and Kyle Van and Bosch. The move,

297
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 1: according to Kingsbury, Drew was in direct relationship to the

298
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 1: injury to Hollywood Brown, hurt his foot out indefinitely on

299
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,480

300
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 1: the fourth down deep ball from Kyle the Murray, So,

301
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown is out. Robbie Anderson is in available this week?

302
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: But just how available can you be when you just

303
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: arrived and you've got less time to prepare against the

304
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints. Yeah, well, I would imagine they'll have

305
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: a small category for him to just say, Okay, here's

306
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: your place, here's what you're going to be doing, because

307
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: you want to be able to get him out there.

308
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: You want to be able to utilize this right away.

309
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: And yes, it's a short week. At the same time,

310
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: he's in shape, he's been playing, he's understands it. It's

311
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: a breath of fresh air for him to come into

312
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 1: a new setting. You might not count on him for

313
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: a lot, but he's a speed guy that can take

314
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: the top off of a coverage. He can do different things.

315
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: He understands how to run posts here, understands how to

316
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: do all of these nuances that are going to be

317
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: asked of him. It's just a matter of learning the

318
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: verbiage and the language. And sometimes that can be a

319
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: wide receiver helping him. Sometimes that can be Kyler when

320
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: they break the huddle over reminding him, hey, this is

321
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: what you got on that, so there's a lot of

322
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: ways to do it, or hey, we know what plays

323
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: coming right here. Okay, come on and off the sideline.

324
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 1: This is what you have. So he's a veteran guy

325
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 1: who's been around for a while now, he's going to

326
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 1: be able to get something out of him this week.

327
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: And then have this long weekend where I imagine he'll

328
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 1: be up here learning as much as he can to

329
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: get up to speed. Seven year veteran. And the good

330
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 1: news with respects to trying to get him acclimated to

331
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 1: this offense, Kyle quickly is his relationship with wide receivers

332
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: coach Sean Jefferson. They were together with the Jets, so

333
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: that should help. Now again, how big of a deal

334
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: is that going into this week? Who knows, but long

335
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 1: term then following weeks certainly should help. Yeah, Drew, No,

336
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: Sean Jefferson as well, from our time in Detroit, a

337
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: tremendous wide receivers coach, and if he's vouching for a player,

338
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: I think you can really count on that player. Sean

339
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: Jefferson's old school. He likes guys that work with guys

340
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: that get after it, so you know, you can be

341
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: confident that they feel good about bringing him in. And

342
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 1: again to Drew's points about you know, how much can

343
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 1: you get up to speed in a short week. The

344
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: offensive game plan defensive game plan is paired down anyways.

345
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: I mean they're not going to go into this game

346
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: with their entire playbook. They're going to focus on what

347
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 1: things they do well. They're gonna focus on what things

348
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: the Saints struggle against and move forward with that. So

349
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: you know, it's not like he's only going to have

350
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: a small part of a huge game plan. He's gonna

351
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: have a small part of a small game plan because

352
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: you do simplify things, try to put too much on

353
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: players plates in this short week because on top of

354
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: the lack of practice time and you have a lack

355
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: of film study, you have a lack of meetings, you

356
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 1: have you just don't have the normal time that you

357
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 1: used to to prepare for an opponent. So you go

358
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 1: in with some basic stuff or some some concepts that

359
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 1: have worked for you in the past. Anderson is two

360
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 1: seasons removed from a thousand yards with Carolina, and again

361
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,639
Speaker 1: it's a needed move to be made in the light

362
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: of the injury to Hollywood Brown. Let's hear more about

363
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 1: round Robbie Anderson and why he was acquired. Here's head

364
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 1: Cutch Cliff Kingsbury had an opportunity to get a guy

365
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: brings some speed and that dynamic that Hollywood has, and

366
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 1: so we'll kind of see where he fits in and

367
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: just for the long term with guys getting hurt. We

368
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 1: need some more whiteouts in here. But just watching him

369
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 1: over the years and studying his tape, I mean, he's

370
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: got a skill set that seems to be similar and

371
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: he can really run, which we need. That has the

372
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: speed of a Hollywood Brown, who, by the way, leading

373
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: the Cardinals and receptions and receiving yards and receiving touchdowns.

374
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: So that is now completely out the window with respects

375
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: to Hollywood Brown, you lose that. I think it's unfair

376
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,680
Speaker 1: to think Robbie Anderson is just going to come in

377
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: and pick that up. I'll say this though, Drew, I

378
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 1: do like the fact that he's six foot three. That

379
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,119
Speaker 1: gives you some height. Along with an AJ Green and

380
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: a returning DeAndre Hopkins, this is a wide receiver corps

381
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: that does not have a lot of height before d

382
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: hop comes back and now with Anderson in the fold, Yeah,

383
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that matters a little bit that

384
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,120
Speaker 1: production will get scooped up by d hop I think

385
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: we feel good about that one. At the same time,

386
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: it's a little concerning because guys like Rondel Moore AJ Green,

387
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 1: you would hope that they wouldn't feel the need to

388
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: make this kind of a move. Now, granted this is

389
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 1: just speculation, but I think there's also the fact that

390
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 1: he was a disgruntled wide receiver that has a previous

391
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 1: relationship with Sean Jefferson that can be plugged into that room.

392
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 1: So there is an immense amount of value you can

393
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: get because wide receivers like that that can really be

394
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 1: a plug and play for you and feel that need.

395
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 1: The day that it actually happens, you don't find that.

396
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: So it's a good aggressive move by Steve Kim and

397
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: those guys to be able to do it, because again,

398
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: this season has so much more out in front of it,

399
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: and you can get him acclimated to what's going on.

400
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: I would still like to see Greg Dorge Moore. I

401
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 1: think that they have a connection. You're starting to see

402
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 1: guys that Kyler is comfortable with that he wants to

403
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 1: throw the ball to and do more with. And even

404
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: though Greg and Rondell play the slot, they've almost been

405
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 1: doing different things of what's been asked of them. What's

406
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,400
Speaker 1: doing that? So who knows, Maybe on this condensed week,

407
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 1: do you have Greg Doorge do a little bit more

408
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 1: and let Robbie Anderson just do a very small amount

409
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 1: of work to just say, Okay, this is what it's

410
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: going to be like moving forward. Speaking of Greg Dorge, Kyle,

411
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: you were telling me before the show began on your

412
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: little homework assignment going down the rabbit hole as far

413
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: as quarterback and wide receiver connections and Kyler Murray targeting

414
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 1: Greg Dorge, that's been the most successful pairing between quarterback

415
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: and wide receiver. Today commenting, I was cursing you for

416
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 1: putting me on these stats because you're typically the stat

417
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 1: guy and I'm typically the guy that asked you for stats.

418
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: But um, you know one thing that I found interesting

419
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: because I've been saying what happened to Greg Dortch. He

420
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: looked explosive, he looked smooth, He's got wind targeted, He's

421
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: caught every ball whin targeted. But Kyler Murray has a

422
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 1: one sixteen passer rating when targeting Greg Dortch, And the

423
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,959
Speaker 1: next closest is zach Ertz at one hundred, and then

424
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: Rondelmore and then Hollywood and um, you know Dorsch also,

425
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: you know we've seen Hollywood. Um, you know two games

426
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: ago against the Eagles, catch a ball and get a

427
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: lot of yaking and create and make people miss in

428
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 1: will his way into the end, Zoe. But Greg Dortsch

429
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: is averaging more yards after the catch than Hollywood Brown

430
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 1: was so um, I feel like he you know, just

431
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: the eyeball test. He looks like a guy who is explosive,

432
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: who has the speed, who has the hands, and he's

433
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,160
Speaker 1: got a lot of dog in him. I mean, he's

434
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: gonna fight for those extra yards. And you know, you

435
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:01,360
Speaker 1: continuously here Coach Kingsbury say, we've got so many weapons.

436
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 1: We just need to utilize him the right way and

437
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: find a way to get the ball in their hands

438
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 1: in space. Well, that's your guy. He did it. He

439
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 1: was the story, the breakout story of the preseason, and

440
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 1: it carried over into the regular season. George took advantage

441
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 1: of the time that Ron del Moore missed with more back.

442
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 1: It's Greg Dortsch has seen his playing time decrease because

443
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: you've got Ron del Moore. Now. All the question is

444
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: what DeAndre Hopkins coming back? What happens with those snap

445
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: counts in the wide receiver room. Here is head coach

446
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury, because trying to limit Hopkins or get him

447
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 1: slowly adjusted might not be an option, especially with Hollywood

448
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: Brown getting hurt We still want to use him in

449
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 1: different positions and maximize what he can do, but we

450
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: definitely will adjust his role. We've got a scot killer

451
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: anything he says not. So we'll see, we'll see, We'll

452
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 1: see how he's going. But I know he's anxious. He

453
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,639
Speaker 1: was up here today asking for the game plan and

454
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 1: excited to get out there. We know what the numbers say,

455
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: Drew with DeAndre Hopkins eight and two with five and

456
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 1: nine without and that's going back to two thousand and one.

457
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 1: One player. Yes, has meant all the difference to this

458
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 1: offense should not be the case. So I want to

459
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: make that perfectly clear. Could never be reliant on one individual,

460
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 1: but it has. And now you hope that this is

461
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: the catalyst for this team to get going. Yeah, I mean,

462
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: that's what you're looking for, and that's what you're hoping for.

463
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,880
Speaker 1: When you are a playmaker of his caliber, a difference

464
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 1: maker of his caliber, that's what you want. That's why

465
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,120
Speaker 1: you made a trade for him in the first place.

466
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,719
Speaker 1: And you're able to get him. Guys like that, when

467
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: you have one on one, you feel so good about

468
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:38,119
Speaker 1: him winning every single time, and guys like that are

469
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: very hard to find. So getting him back will be

470
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 1: a tremendous shot in the arm. Now it would have

471
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 1: been a complete luxury and much more comforting if they

472
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: were having Hollywood Brown and him paired together. How they're

473
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 1: going to match it? I mean we talked about that

474
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 1: leading into the season. You know, do they insert him

475
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 1: into the slot? Do they put him back outside? Where

476
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: are they going to go with all this stuff? And

477
00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 1: maybe that's really what they want to do, is saying, Okay,

478
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 1: if we want to Andrea in the slot, and that's

479
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: why we go make a move for somebody like Robbie Anderson,

480
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: because we want him to stay on the outside where

481
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 1: Hollywood would be or eventually will be, And then it

482
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: becomes really exciting. So I don't know what the answer is.

483
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 1: Time will tell within all of that, but you would

484
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 1: imagine these two ay goes on the inside for somebody

485
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 1: as dynamic as DeAndre Hopkins would really allow Kyler to

486
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 1: settle in and find a security blanket that he has

487
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 1: not found thus far. I remember that first time with

488
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 1: Hopkins on the field. I believe it was sixteen targets,

489
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,199
Speaker 1: fourteen catches on the road against the forty nine ers.

490
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,239
Speaker 1: I don't think sixteen targets is what Hopkins is going

491
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: to get Thursday. I'm sure he would love sixteen targets

492
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 1: just to Kada make up for lost time. But when

493
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: ten is on the football field, this offense and Kyler Murray,

494
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 1: they operate just a lot cleaner. Yeah, And to Drew's

495
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,959
Speaker 1: point that, you know a lot of Kyler's targets are

496
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 1: going to Hollywood Brown, So those targets gotta go somewhere.

497
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: And Drew made a good point. You know, with him

498
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 1: being back, they're probably gonna go to him. I mean,

499
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: you know, we've talked about this before about the effect

500
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: on a defense that having him on the field makes.

501
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,679
Speaker 1: It dictates coverage, it cleans things up. And Drew can

502
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: tell you this, when you have that type of premier receiver,

503
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 1: and we played with one in Detroit, it makes the

504
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 1: reads a little bit easier. And you know, I can

505
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: recall a game when when Calvin Johnson and Detroit had

506
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 1: a leg injury and he shouldn't have been on the

507
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 1: football field, but we kept trotting him out there because

508
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 1: the threat of Calvin Johnson cleaned things up and it

509
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: made other teams account for him. So having DeAndre Hopkins

510
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: back out on the field. Not just it's not just

511
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: a big difference in his ability, which is elite, and

512
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 1: his catch radius is elite, and the things he can

513
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:46,119
Speaker 1: do very few receivers can do. But you can pretty

514
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: much anticipate how the defense is going to play him

515
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 1: when he's on the football field, saw Hopkins earlier on

516
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: the practice field. They're going through a walk through as

517
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 1: we speak here on the Cardinals Red Seat Report presented

518
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 1: by Seek Your Ticket to Great Seats. Wasn't doing a

519
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: whole heck of a lot. In fact, they were working

520
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: through some special teams, but just to see number ten

521
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,159
Speaker 1: on the football field. He has been in the building

522
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,400
Speaker 1: for the past couple of days, more than a week,

523
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 1: involved in meetings, just hasn't been with the team on

524
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 1: the football field. That changes this week and then of

525
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 1: course on Thursday when the Cardinals host the Saints. Cardinals

526
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: two and four, and they're two and four and large

527
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 1: parts because of the defense. When we come back the

528
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,479
Speaker 1: second half of the Cardinals Red Sea Report will put

529
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,719
Speaker 1: the spotlights on the defense and their efforts so far

530
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 1: through six games. The young players stepping up adding to

531
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 1: their tremendous rookie seasons and in the cases Avan Collins

532
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 1: his second year Emily, this is the Arizona Cardinals Radio

533
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: Network snapped A. Smith drops back to throw pressure in

534
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 1: his face. He's in trouble and he goes down. He's

535
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: sacked back at the twenty one yard line. I am Thomas,

536
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:05,160
Speaker 1: the rookie. First career sack for Cam Thomas. Shotgun Staff

537
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: Smith deep drop, looking steps up hit. Sacked back at

538
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 1: the thirteen yard line by Zaban Collins. First career sack

539
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,399
Speaker 1: for Zaban Collins. In trouble and it's my J. Sanders

540
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 1: back there for the sack, taking down Geno Smith. Great

541
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,360
Speaker 1: speed for my J. Sanders, the rookie from Cincinnati off

542
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 1: the edge getting his first NFL sack back to Pasco Smith.

543
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: Here comes my J. Sanders. Smith gets out of there

544
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: though he's running far side ben Zaven Collins Sackson at

545
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 1: the twenty good pursuit by Zaban Collins. They say sacks

546
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 1: come in bunches, and the Cardinals got a bunch of

547
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 1: sacks on Sunday in Seattle, And in case they fact,

548
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: they got five of them, and the first career sacks

549
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 1: for Cameron Thomas, my J. Sanders and Zaven Collins, who

550
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 1: finished with two and the nineteen to nine loss against

551
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks. As we can tine year second half

552
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 1: of the Cardinals Red Sea Report presented by Seek Your

553
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,359
Speaker 1: Ticket to Great Seats, and let's touch on what has

554
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 1: been a pleasant surprise this season is the defense and

555
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,919
Speaker 1: just the development Kyle of these young pieces. Because there

556
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: were big question marks going into the year one about

557
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 1: Zaven Collins year two. Could he handle that role of

558
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: an inside linebacker being the quarterback of the defense. And

559
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,239
Speaker 1: then secondly, that outside pass rush. Where was it going

560
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: to come from? You lose the Chandler Jones. Who's gonna

561
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 1: step up? And in week six we saw Cameron Thomas

562
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 1: my j Sanders get snaps and produce. Yeah. I mean

563
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: to me, that's that's the biggest development with his defense.

564
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: They've been playing well, but you can see that they

565
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: have the potential to keep getting better because of the

566
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 1: development of Zaven Collins, because the development of these young

567
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 1: defensive linemen, because the cornerbacks continue to step up and

568
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 1: play really well. And you know, the impressive thing about

569
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 1: Vance Joseph is he keeps finding new and different ways

570
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 1: to use his players. You know, I love seeing Cam

571
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,640
Speaker 1: Thomas's first secuh, he bull rushes an office attacker, walks

572
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: him all the way back into the quarterback. And then

573
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 1: you see my j Sanders, who's a different type of

574
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 1: pass rusher, just beating guys around the end with his

575
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: speed and quickness. You see Jesse Luketta getting in there

576
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 1: and getting some reps and and flashing and showing his

577
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: speed and physicality. Those are all great things. But you know, again,

578
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 1: the development of Zavian Collins of not just getting to

579
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: a point where he's seeing things at the inside linebacker

580
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 1: position that he's he's playing blocks better, but also making

581
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,879
Speaker 1: big plays being a part of a pass rush, and

582
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 1: you know, again, everging thing is through the good. Through

583
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: the first part of the season, it felt like Vance

584
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 1: Joseph had two blitz, had to pressure to speed things up,

585
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 1: to get pressure on quarterbacks. To a large degree in

586
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: this game, they were getting there with the four man

587
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: pass rush, which when you can get to that point

588
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 1: and you can do that, it frees you up so

589
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: much on the back end and helps your coverage so

590
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: much when you're getting pressure with just four and that's

591
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 1: back to back weeks. Now drew that it doesn't look

592
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: like there's been that fifth or even sixth defender coming

593
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 1: into the backfield, and it's a credit to not only

594
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: those defensive linemen and outside linebackers, but also that you

595
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: have confidence in the secondary as well to be able

596
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: to cover and a Byron Murphy, Marco Wilson, Antonia Hamilton

597
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: have all stepped up their game to where you're rendering

598
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 1: the opposing wide receivers their best pass catchers right a

599
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: non existent for the most part. Yeah, I mean those

600
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: guys were negated, where in the past we've seen both

601
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: of those guys DK Metcalf, you know, Anti Alaka have

602
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 1: a huge, huge effect on the game and so being

603
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 1: able to change that again their identities changing up in Seattle.

604
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 1: Without Russell Wilson there, Geno's doing a very nice job

605
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 1: of protecting the football. They're trying to do some different

606
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,479
Speaker 1: things as they plug and play guys, but this defense

607
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: has adapted very nicely over the course of the six

608
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: weeks that they've been out there. Think too often as

609
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: we start pointing fingers or we have question marks, and

610
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 1: we don't applaud people for making big jumps, and this

611
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 1: defense has made big jumps individually and collectively. I think

612
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 1: they're playing at a very high level, very underrated because

613
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: they're not getting the credit of playing as a unit.

614
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: This is a unit that is playing eleven guys on

615
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 1: the same page and you're seeing it. Even Marcus Golden

616
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 1: getting after it even though he doesn't have the stats.

617
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 1: He's a guy that is putting pressure on these quarterbacks,

618
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: you know, pulling the ball down, having to do that

619
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 1: and extend plays, and guys are getting after it. So

620
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: it all works hand in hand. They're doing a good

621
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 1: job of changing the picture. They're being aggressive when they

622
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 1: need to be aggressive though, that's the other beauty, and

623
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 1: I think Kyla did a really nice job of articulating that.

624
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: Like Vance, Joseph is getting the most out of his

625
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: guys as he realized what they do well and he's

626
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 1: trying to stay away from what they don't do well,

627
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: and sometimes that's a work in progress. You can even

628
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: look at isaias Simons, he is starting to find a

629
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: role within what he needs to do and not putting

630
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 1: him out on an island, not putting him against some

631
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: of these guys where he can't be successful. And as

632
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 1: a collective hole, this defense is playing extremely well. If

633
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: we can get this throughout the rest of the season.

634
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: It's going to be a very nice surprise for the duration.

635
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,959
Speaker 1: In addition to Collins getting his first two career sacks,

636
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 1: he set career highs and tackles, tackles for loss, and

637
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 1: quarterback hits. His performance certainly would have been better if

638
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 1: it came in a whim, but it still shows how

639
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 1: much he has improved individually. And then the defense overall,

640
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: holding the Seahawks of just nineteen points. Here's Collins postgame,

641
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: and you can have eight sacks, whatever you can fly

642
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 1: all of you can have picks pick six. Is the

643
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 1: loss is still lost? You know what I mean? So

644
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 1: it's it's it's rough, But you know, I thought I've

645
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 1: I've played up and down. I had a few miss assignments,

646
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 1: but stuff we get to fix up while watching film.

647
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: But you know, I thought, I thought we played hard

648
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: as a defense. You know a lot of guys are

649
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: there that are running to the ball constantly, So we

650
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: still got good signs of healthy defense. What you'd like

651
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: to hear from the players in the locker room, especially

652
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,480
Speaker 1: on the defensive side. It was Buddha Baker host game

653
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 1: as well. Kyle says, we can still play better because

654
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 1: they're pointing to Kenneth Walker's touchdown run, not being able

655
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 1: to get that stop on that drive. Going back to

656
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 1: the Eagles game, not being able to get the Eagles

657
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: off the field on that seventeen play drive that ended

658
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: up being the difference in the ball game. Still, you're

659
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 1: asking a lot of a defense. Certainly would be nice

660
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: to get some help by the offense, but overall, I

661
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 1: don't know how much how much more you can ask

662
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 1: of this defense right now. No, I agree, the defense

663
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 1: continually steps up, especially in crucial moments. I mean, the

664
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: offensive struggles outside of the first two drives and to

665
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: only come away with three points and with the defense

666
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: and special teams you're still at twelve to nine at

667
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: the end of the third quarter. I mean, the defense,

668
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 1: you know, it's not always pretty, it's not always perfect,

669
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 1: but they are doing what it takes to give the

670
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 1: offense an opportunity to capitalize and win these games. And

671
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 1: you know, having played defense, sometimes it gets really frustrating

672
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: when you get a big stop. I mean, it might

673
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: be a three and out, it might be a ten

674
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 1: play drive, and then the offense goes out there and

675
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 1: gets a three and out and you're right back on

676
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 1: the field. And that has happened to this defense over

677
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 1: and over and over, where they get a stop, the

678
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 1: offense goes out there and gets a quick three and

679
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 1: out and they're right back out there. But what do

680
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 1: they do. They keep stepping up and keep responding, and

681
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: I love the way they're wired. And you've got to

682
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: believe that this message is coming from advanced Joseph, that

683
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: there is still so many things that we can do better. Hey,

684
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: let's let's, you know, talk about the positives, but let's

685
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 1: also examine where we're making mistakes. Into a large degree,

686
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 1: guys are in the right place. You know, this game,

687
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 1: it particularly showed up is the tackling isn't always great,

688
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 1: especially in the open field, and that's something that you

689
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 1: know can get better throughout the season. So you know,

690
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 1: you love to hear that, though especially in young players,

691
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: they're not You don't hear Zaven Collins coming into the

692
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 1: locker room satisfied with his performance, which you know he

693
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: certainly could be because he continues. It seems like every

694
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 1: week for the last three or four weeks, we keep

695
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 1: saying Zamon Collins has played his best game. And I

696
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 1: believe that's true again this week. So he seems to

697
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,919
Speaker 1: be hungry to keep building upon not only what he's

698
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: doing himself, but to build for this entire defense to

699
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,839
Speaker 1: keep progressing and keep stepping up and keep getting better.

700
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: And the real encouraging part on all this when you

701
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: look at the defense outside of JJ Watt, the players

702
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 1: on the field are all your own players. They're all

703
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: homegrown talent players that you drafted and developed. In fact,

704
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,840
Speaker 1: Bench Joseph spoke on that this week. They've got to

705
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 1: play to get better, obviously, but you know the question

706
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 1: for a coaches, you know, is it is it worth

707
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 1: those four or five plays to want to lose the game. Obviously,

708
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,239
Speaker 1: that's a balancing night for a coach. You know, some

709
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 1: guys get it quicker than others. It takes some guys longer.

710
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: But once they get it, they get it and they

711
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: play well. But I think with Cam and Zaven and

712
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 1: Isaiah and Sanders, it's been a good timeline. It's been

713
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,879
Speaker 1: on their terms, I should say, you know, and that's

714
00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,839
Speaker 1: that's what he wants a coach. There's only been one

715
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 1: game and it was across the board, and that was

716
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 1: Week one against the Kansas City Chiefs arguably maybe one

717
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,800
Speaker 1: of the top offenses, if not the top offense in

718
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:12,320
Speaker 1: the league. But outside of that, since Week one, this defense,

719
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 1: I don't know how you can argue against them not

720
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: being the story of twenty twenty two. Yeah, no, they

721
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: definitely are. But you look at the Kyle Fana bash

722
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:21,920
Speaker 1: that he'd rather take eight sacks too than a win,

723
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: just to be clear, But I'm throwing some under the bus. Yeah,

724
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 1: But in saying that, this defense, yes, it has made adjustments,

725
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 1: and I think the coaching staff made adjustments. So this

726
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 1: is a collective hole that there's a lot of optimism

727
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,560
Speaker 1: for Cardinals and Saints. Coming up on Thursday will touch

728
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,240

Speaker 1: feet down to the touchdown quick for over the middle,

739
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: Hopkins has a catch of the tent, turns to his

Speaker 1: left hat the five. It hits painter touched down DeAndre Hopkins.

Speaker 1: Throws left to the Enzo Hopkins is there sliding cats

00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 1: for a touchdown by DeAndre Hopkins, steps up, blops it

744
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 1: back of the ends of quite open his Hopkins and

745
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,800
Speaker 1: a touchdown off by Hopkins. Hit the tent, slips a tackle,

746
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,840
Speaker 1: runs left to the five into the end zone for

747
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 1: the touchdown. Throws a bait left side of the end

748
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 1: zone and it is caught for a touchdown by the

749
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 1: hop The hop caught it looks right, throws a deep

750
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 1: ball right side in the end zone, pen it's caught,

751
00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:57,320
Speaker 1: hits a touchdown touchdown. DeAndre Hopkins have not heard that

752
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,359
Speaker 1: in a long time. In fact, Week thirteen of last

753
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:03,919
Speaker 1: season the last time DeAndre Hopkins played. He will play

754
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,879
Speaker 1: Thursday night when the Cardinals hosts the Saints at State

755
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 1: Farm Stadium. Five fifteen is the Kickop one thirty. Pregame

756
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: coverage begins and Yes, a lot of anticipation with number

757
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 1: ten back in the fold. Although cannot look at one player,

758
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 1: but at this point, Drew, I'm looking for anything. You

759
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: get Robbie Anderson, you get d hop and something to

760
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 1: inject some life into this offense, and hopefully that comes

761
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,280
Speaker 1: this week. Well, if you're going to get one player,

762
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 1: that's the one player to hope to get some life

763
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: injected into it. And it's well warranted because of what

764
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 1: he does when he's on the football field. You said

765
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,359
Speaker 1: the stats earlier in the show of the win loss

766
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: record when he's there versus not being there. He is

767
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 1: a difference maker no matter what happens where he's on

768
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,880
Speaker 1: the field. And Kyler was doing a really nice job

769
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 1: last year in the early portion when they were really

770
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:55,440
Speaker 1: rolling on offense. He was taking calculated risks of one

771
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 1: on one matchups and doing this and everything that was

772
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 1: in our favor under staying in the situation. Okay, it's

773
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 1: third and three, I can throw a fifty fifty ball

774
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,399
Speaker 1: up to him and he's going to win. That makes sense.

775
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 1: Not everybody has that capability. You put him around and

776
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,840
Speaker 1: move him around so he can help to dictate coverage.

777
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 1: He can show you coverage that you might cloud him

778
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,680
Speaker 1: over there, you know, by trying to sit a corner

779
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:17,800
Speaker 1: down and then play a safety over the top of him. Okay,

780
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 1: you can still run a backside slant. There's a lot

781
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 1: of ways to manufacture things to be able to get him.

782
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,360
Speaker 1: I would be shocked at if Cliff Kingsbury wasn't already

783
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: structuring a game plan for him last week of saying

784
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna do this, or you take a lot of

785
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 1: carry over of what you had last week in the

786
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: game plan, but okay, this week, this is going to

787
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: be number ten in here in this spot. But a

788
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: lot of guys are running the same routes and concepts.

789
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: That's what we did for Thursday night. Anything we didn't

790
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 1: run in that previous game, we tried to just regurgitate

791
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 1: it onto the page for the following week. Because you

792
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: want guys to feel comfortable, you want them to play

793
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: fast and somebody like that. That Again, he didn't have

794
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: a preseason last year when he played Diddy. You know,

795
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 1: he doesn't need this. He's not a guy that's gonna

796
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:57,840
Speaker 1: have to be worried about getting into the flow of

797
00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 1: what's going on. It's Thursday night football, actually televised. He

798
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 1: knows what he means to this team, and as a

799
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 1: leader of this offense, as a leader of this organization,

800
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 1: he's got to be able to step up and really

801
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 1: do that. And he's got the capability to go out

802
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 1: and get fourteen catches and everybody would be like, yep,

803
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 1: that's what we expected. Short week for both teams, both

804
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 1: the Cardinals and Saints, so that has its own circumstances

805
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,319
Speaker 1: to deal with before Colin going to get your thoughts

806
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,280
Speaker 1: on the Saints in particular, but here advanced Joseph talking

807
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: about the prep after playing on Sunday on the road

808
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:30,359
Speaker 1: and now playing Thursday at home on a short week

809
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 1: like this, your system has to take over. We install

810
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:34,759
Speaker 1: some things about him a week ago that we put

811
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 1: in for this game. You know, so the guy's been

812
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 1: running a little bit in practice and not running in

813
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,280
Speaker 1: the game. So as far as putting in new schemes,

814
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 1: that ain't happened in this week, right, So the things

815
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: that you've been good at, you know, you've pushed those

816
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:49,280
Speaker 1: things out in to meet advantage this defense because obviously

817
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 1: it's on our terms. We can bring pressure, we cannot

818
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 1: bring pressure. So to me, it's an advantage for defense

819
00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 1: to you know, playing they short weeks disadvantage though for

820
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 1: this week's opponent, College, You're not quite sure. Advance was

821
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: a about it earlier on Tuesday. Who is the quarterback

822
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 1: of the New Orleans Saints. No official announcement made. Andy

823
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 1: Dalton has started each of the past three games after

824
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,239
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston got hurt with back and ankle injuries, and

825
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,840
Speaker 1: now Saints at two and four. What do you do?

826
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,360
Speaker 1: Do you go back to your starter or try to

827
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 1: roll continue to roll with Andy Dalton? Well, that's a

828
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 1: good question. Andy Dalton was given every opportunity to take

829
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 1: the job, had an opportunity late in the game last

830
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:28,879
Speaker 1: week to execute and didn't get it done. So yeah,

831
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 1: you know, I think you prepare for either quarterback just

832
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 1: about the same way. You know, you're going up against

833
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: the Saints team that's also two and four, one game

834
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,439
Speaker 1: out of the division leads, So that's a team that's

835
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: coming in here hungary, but a lot like the Cardinals

836
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,719
Speaker 1: as well, they're dealing with a lot of injuries at

837
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 1: key positions, missing Michael Thomas, Jarvis, Landry Lattimore is going

838
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 1: to be out probably on defense, So you know, it's

839
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 1: gonna be a couple of banged up teams on a

840
00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:01,239
Speaker 1: short week coming off of tough losses. Um, it's just

841
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,799
Speaker 1: a matter of who can bounce back quicker, Yeah, well,

842
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 1: or there's the third quarterback, Taysom Hill. I'm shocked you

843
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: didn't say quarterback. I mean, he's list. It could be

844
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 1: a long day a wildcat because five okay, well you

845
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,839
Speaker 1: know what the box man they could Yeah, well, they've

846
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:21,919
Speaker 1: also I mean, that's the identity of this Saints team,

847
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 1: right even when Sean Payton was there. They've done it

848
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:25,920
Speaker 1: such a good job of running the football. And when

849
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,320
Speaker 1: you have that many guys out, I wouldn't be shocked

850
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 1: to see more stuff. With Taysom Hill in there. It's

851
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,440
Speaker 1: easy to be able to plug and play him. It

852
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:34,440
Speaker 1: doesn't matter who's a wide receiver because you're gonna have

853
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,759
Speaker 1: a very simplistic pass game and you sit there and

854
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: you just try and grind out some ugly, disgusting win.

855
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 1: And to your point, Vance Joseph was asked about Taysom

856
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 1: Hill and he said, it's a problem because you're not

857
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 1: exactly sure. And it's six two two twenty one. I mean,

858
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,880
Speaker 1: that's again tied in but he's been running the football

859
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: averaging better than ten yards. But a lot of that

860
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 1: has been as a quarterback because it's wildcat formation, Yeah exactly,

861
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,800
Speaker 1: and he's good enough thrower to be able to extend that.

862
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 1: They can do some things and that package, and you

863
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,319
Speaker 1: can walk through all that stuff very easily. I mean,

864
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 1: that's that could be half of their game plan if

865
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 1: they want to, you know, so it remains to be seen.

866
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: But Andy Dalton's played numerous games and won a lot

867
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,359
Speaker 1: of games in this league. They you know, they're banged up,

868
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 1: but again, they're in the same position right now, is

869
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: there as on the Cardinals at two and four doing

870
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,439
Speaker 1: whatever they can and these Thursday night games you don't

871
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 1: think about right now. You just go into overdrive of

872
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,400
Speaker 1: saying that because all you're worried about is winning Thursday.

873
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:31,399
Speaker 1: So Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday feels so much better. One

874
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 1: notes on Andy Dalton. If he does get the starts

875
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:36,800
Speaker 1: on Thursday, will be the fourth straight season the Cardinals

876
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: see Andy Dalton as an opposing quarterback. With four different

877
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:43,720
Speaker 1: teams Bengals, Cowboys, Bears, they've beat them all three times.

878
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:46,319
Speaker 1: Maybe this would be the fourth time got to talk

879
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 1: about the Saints defense because Cameron Jordan's twelve year vet

880
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 1: Kyle yet still getting the job done three and a

881
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 1: half sacks this season. They've got three sacks for four

882
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 1: straight games, so they can get after the posing quarterback themselves. Yeah,

883
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 1: and that's off. Cameron Jordan is a stud. He still

884
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 1: gets the job done. He's still an elite pass rusher

885
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 1: and coming off of a game where our offensive line

886
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: did their worst and pass protection. So the challenge is

887
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:14,799
Speaker 1: going to be to get the offensive line right this week.

888
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,400
Speaker 1: I mean, of all of the it's been a comedy

889
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,240
Speaker 1: of errors at times with this offense and different reasons

890
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 1: for breakdowns. This week, to a large degree, the offensive

891
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: line played their worst game, both opening holes in the

892
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 1: run game and protecting the quarterback with Kyler Murray not

893
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 1: having much time getting hit and getting sacked more than

894
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,959
Speaker 1: any other game this year. So you know, that's that's

895
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,359
Speaker 1: one thing that a team can do in a short week.

896
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:43,000
Speaker 1: Vance said, the advantages for a defense if you've got

897
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 1: a good pass rush, you have a real advantage on

898
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,280
Speaker 1: a Thursday night game coming on a short week, because

899
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 1: you know it's you've got one job and if you

900
00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:52,200
Speaker 1: can get off, and you feel fresh and you got

901
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:53,919
Speaker 1: a little bit of spring in your step. You're gonna

902
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,359
Speaker 1: present some problems to an offensive line. They do talking

903
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,400
Speaker 1: about the Saints give up a lot of yards. Bottom

904
00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:01,959
Speaker 1: third in both rushing and passing defense, but top five

905
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 1: on third down and fourth down, top ten in red

906
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,719
Speaker 1: zone defense. And this will mark the first time for

907
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,720
Speaker 1: Tymer Matthew back at State Farm Stadium in a regular

908
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 1: season game. Yes, it did not end here well, but

909
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:16,640
Speaker 1: you got to be appreciative of the five seasons he

910
00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 1: did spend here with the Arizona Cardinals and he was

911
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:20,879
Speaker 1: a tremendous teammate. I loved playing with him. He gave

912
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:22,760
Speaker 1: you everything he got and he's going to be fired

913
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 1: up for this one for sure. Has only the one

914
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 1: interception that the Saints defense as it belongs to Tyron

915
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 1: Matthew again. Five to fifteen is the kickoff one thirty

916
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:35,880
