You know there are different ways to approach 14 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: an NFL training camp, right, I mean there's different players, 15 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: different game plans or different players. And I saw an 16 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 1: interview with a Hollywood luminary recently and they were told 17 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 1: before embarking on their career acting, writing, producing, the advice 18 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: within the industry of Hollywood was, you know what be 19 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: a Michael not a Sonny Danny, would you care to 20 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 1: speculate as to what that's in reference too? Have you 21 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: ever seen the Godfather? See, you didn't even give me 22 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: a chance to say it, because I know you know 23 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,199 Speaker 1: the answer. I know Jim does not know the answer 24 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: because he's the one person on the face of the 25 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: earth who has not seen the god WHOA Okay, you're 26 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: the only person. First of all, you said, luminary, Wait 27 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 1: a minute, three people out of four have not seen 28 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 1: the Godfather and we have him assembled in this room. 29 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: That's true. I mean I know of it. I've seen scenes, 30 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: but I've never actually watched the movie. I might actually 31 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: need a VET day. I was sort of like Will Hernandez, 32 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: I've yet to really exercise a VET day. This might 33 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: be the moment where I need a VET day. Have 34 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: you seen The Rock a mental health day with Nicholas 35 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: cage Y? Yeah, okay, just check one of the finest films. Well, 36 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: at least we're two for four on that one instead 37 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: of one for four. So anyway, the point of it, 38 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: I'll talk about something I can contribute to goodness. The 39 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 1: point is, if you're a Michael, you take a slow, intelligent, 40 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: calculated approach. If you're a sonny, you're more of a hothead, 41 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: and you come out flame and hot writing your eyes. 42 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: Is that Pacino and uh and James con exactly jokes 43 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: more the hot head, right, And I've never even seen it, 44 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: and I just guessed the meeting. So if if you're 45 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: the Sunny, end up shot up on the freeway, okay, 46 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: in a gang slain. But if you're Michael, end up 47 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: ahead of the mafia, so you know, just have a 48 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: calculated approach. But did you ruin the movie for me? 49 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: Is there no point for me even watching now? No? 50 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: I know you were running out to see them. Sure, no, 51 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: there's there's three more hours for you to sit there 52 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: over your labor day weekend and catch up on things 53 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: that you need to all right, it's Americana Danny for pizza. Okay, 54 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: my goodness. Okay, So there. Oh that's an epic fail 55 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: to start this edition of Cardinals Underground. Paul calBC, Darren Urban, 56 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: Danny Serek, anybody else want to start, I'll tell you what. 57 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: I'll take out my angst on the ap writer. Darren, 58 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: you know one of your one your brethren up there 59 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: in the press box. Yes, it was a game wrap 60 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 1: story Cardinals Bengals Week one, Yes, preseason, and the big 61 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: flaming headline called it a sloppy preseason game. Really, Cardinals 62 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: had no turnovers and they had only two penalties. He 63 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: was a Cincinnati writer, Paul, Cincinnati base But you're supposed 64 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: to be writing it a game rap, I mean overall, Yeah, 65 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: would you call it a sloppy certainly not from the 66 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: Cardinals person, not from the Cardinals perspective. That was the 67 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: one really good thing about that game was that it 68 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: wasn't sloppy. That there weren't a lot of penalties, that 69 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: they didn't turn the ball over, And not only did 70 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: they not turn it over, but they were efficient offensively 71 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: for the most part. I mean, I for a preseason 72 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: game where you're not having any your players play, that 73 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: was pretty impressive. Red zone, right goal line, goal line 74 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: was an issue at times. Last year's certainly wasn't in 75 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: the preseason opener. How how many of those players are 76 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: going to be there Week one against Kansas City? I 77 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: get it, there's not much of a direct correlation. Okay, 78 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: but again, adjusting for adjusting your expectations for the preseason, Danny, 79 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: I mean, at least in terms of preseason openers, that 80 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: performance checked a lot of boxes. Did or not? Yeah? 81 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I'm gonna be honest. I was not 82 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: out there with you guys, so I can't get I'm 83 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: not going to sit here and give a detailed description 84 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: when I was unable to be there or to watch 85 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: the game. But from what I the highlights I saw 86 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: and what I read online, what you hope for in 87 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: a preseason games in terms of, you know, getting the 88 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: substitutions and penalties and avoiding injuries. That that that's the 89 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: main goal. So that's good for the Cardinals. I'll tell 90 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: you what was most impressive to me, honestly, Evan McPherson 91 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 1: a couple of surfaced air missiles. The Cincinnati Bengals kicker. 92 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, I was impressive of everything that happened 93 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 1: in that game. For him to nail a fifty eight 94 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: yarder and then followed up with the fifty six yard 95 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: multiple would have been good from sixty five like justin 96 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 1: reed range. I mean, my goodness, Oh, that was impressive. 97 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: That was impressive. And you and you're hoping that the 98 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 1: Matt Prater two missed extra points or nothing, which I 99 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 1: actually think they are nothing, but yeah, those those coming bunches, 100 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: just like last year when the missus happened, which is rare. 101 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: They tend Although it was funny the day that we're 102 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: recording this, not that we're supposed to talk about practice, 103 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: but he was deadly accurate and some long field goals 104 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: and he was doing it on the skinny goal post 105 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: today and I'm just like, Okay, he's taking it out 106 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: on his uh, he's taking out those misses on his 107 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: attempts today. So we're not supposed to talk about other 108 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: things that happened in practice today, because you know, at 109 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: this time a week ago, I was trying to push 110 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: my new line of merch the will versus Everybody t shirt. 111 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: Oh that's true, and it might have to change that 112 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: to another offensive linement, a rookie versus everybody. The way 113 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: things are trending right now in Cardinals camp, I will 114 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: say that Marcus Hayes Marquise has had a good game 115 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: against the Bengals. He did have a good game against 116 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: the Bengals, and coaches did tell us he had a 117 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: nasty street going into the game against the Bengals. So 118 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: that's we'll just let you add that up. And draw 119 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: the conclusion on that one. Sounds like we're gonna see 120 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: speaking of the preseason opener, sounds like we're gonna see 121 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: Trace McSorley again in the next game against the Baltimore Rate. Well. 122 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: I will say that yer Kyler Murray knocked down the 123 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: idea he'd play in the preseason in his press conference, 124 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: So I don't think. I think that's pretty much a given. 125 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 1: Not that that's very surprising at this point. Um and 126 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: the way that Colt McCoy's practices have gone where he's 127 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: not really throwing the ball. I mean, I'm thinking we're 128 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: gonna see an awful lot of Trace McSorley this entire preseason. 129 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: So even in the third game, if if the Cardinals 130 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 1: I've decided he is their third string quarterback over Jared Guarantano, Yeah, 131 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 1: think Trace McSorley still plays that. Do you think, I mean, 132 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 1: who you're gonna you're gonna play Guaranton? I think so. 133 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: I don't. If if maybe we don't know enough about 134 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: that's possible colts sore arms throwing arm I don't. I don't. 135 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: I don't see Colt McCoy playing in the preseason now, right, 136 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: So if I guess it's just if they find out more, 137 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: maybe they don't. Yeah, that's really been ready for week one. 138 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: Maybe that maybe we don't see Trace in that third game. 139 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: If he'll be QB two to start the season, that's 140 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: a good point. I'm gonna make one addition and one 141 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: detraction from this conversation. Number one the addition, didn't Cliff 142 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: Kingsbury already say that the regulars are not going against Tennessee? 143 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: Didn't you already say that week in the camp he 144 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: said we're going to do the joint practices, And yeah, 145 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: I think he did say the regulars are going to 146 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: get you know, ball cap. But as Trace McSorley a regular, 147 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: that's what she's saying is Trace McSorley might not even 148 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: play four quarters. Well, because if if Colts not going 149 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: to be ready for week one, or you're worried about 150 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: him ready, is going to want to risk him getting hurt? 151 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: All right, here's the demerit for me. I should know 152 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: this will play quarterback in the Tennessee game. I would 153 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: pay money. You know, this camp really is about all 154 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: the dominion of Americans. Honestly, if you want to break 155 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: it down, if there's one theme that Darren has failed 156 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: to write about yet. It's how the diminutive Americans are 157 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: dominating Cardinals camp two thousand. I can't see you guys 158 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: down there, so it's okay, that's it. You're gonna end 159 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: up like Sonny by the end of this podcast. Le'll 160 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: just tell you that much right here. I should know this. 161 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: Did Kyler play any preseason snaps a year ago? Didn't 162 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: he play in the second game against Dallas? He did, right? 163 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: He played a series or two? Yeah? I feel like yes, 164 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: But I do not know that off the top of 165 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: my head. I'm sure the great Jim Mahundro will look 166 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: that up in a matter of moments. So I'm surprised Darren. 167 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: For the guy who knows all these random names from 168 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 1: two thousand and three, I thought a preseason of twenty 169 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 1: twenty one seems a long time ago. A long time ago. 170 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: Was Danny Serrek at that game? No? Why not? Oh? 171 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: You didn't go to any games? That's right. I did 172 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 1: not work for the Arizona Cardinals at that point. No, 173 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: I know. But were you working for Dallas? I was, No, 174 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 1: I didn't travel. I would have been at the studio. Oh, 175 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 1: that's right. The Dallas game was here. That's why I 176 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: kept thinking it was there. You said, did he play 177 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: last year? And I'm like, I'm picturing like Dallas Stadium 178 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: and whatever, and I'm like, I don't remember seeing him 179 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: out there. But that's right. That keas game. But tell 180 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: you what the AP headline so far should apply to 181 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 1: Cardinals Underground sloppy. We've been sloppy. So we have to 182 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: start this podcast all of us. No, not you know, 183 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: just men. Don't take once again, don't take any Danny, 184 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: don't take any of Darren stuff. Because once you were 185 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: in the drone video on you know, on Cowboys Twitter 186 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: and Cowboys dot com. Why that, I mean, boom, you 187 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: didn't need anything else. The rest of it was hard knocks. Yeah, 188 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: the drone video it's hard knocks. Yes, yeah, once again, 189 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: sloppy on my part. There's a lot of a lot 190 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 1: of mental errors. These are things I should know, and 191 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,679 Speaker 1: that's okay. That's what camp's for. I'm gonna get these 192 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 1: ironed out, get by time we get to week one 193 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: in Kansas City. So I'll just try and make that problem. 194 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: Once is a mistake, Twice is a choice, that's right. 195 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: So now I'm trying to remember the Kyler to Hollywood. 196 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: We're finally seen in practice. Right now, we can talk 197 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: about that, right, I mean, well, yeah, Cliff talked about 198 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: that this week, so I mean we we know what happened. 199 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 1: And actually, uh easy, Cardinal's twitter feed did get the 200 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: permission to put up that clip of them throwing Kyler 201 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: throwing a quote unquote touchdown to Hollywood. So there's video 202 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: evidence of that. Good good because that was eye opening. 203 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,479 Speaker 1: There was Hollywood Brown doing exactly what he was advertised 204 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 1: to be able to do, and that is get behind 205 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: the secondary something we didn't see a whole lot of 206 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 1: a year ago. Now, Andy Isabella truth be Told has 207 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: done that quite a bit in Cardinal's camp, and he 208 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: did it in the preseason game, drew a flag, wasn't 209 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: able to reel in the catch. But yeah, I mean 210 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: Kyler to Hollywood Brown and Kyler Methobedia talked about the chemistry. 211 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 1: If I could have got my question in between everybody 212 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: peppering Kyler, I wanted to know from Kyler just how 213 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: far that chemistry? What's that going to mean come the 214 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 1: regular season? That existing chemistry and how big a deal 215 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: is that come the regular season? But you and Bob 216 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: McManaman and everyone else, cam Cox and Mark McLoone. You 217 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: just kept hammering Kyler with questions. I couldn't get in 218 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: from the back of the room. I asked the question 219 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: about Holly. What it came up? And you know, I 220 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 1: think he said that, you know, essentially they've still got 221 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: a what they've done in the past is the past. 222 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 1: But he feels pretty confident that that's all going to 223 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: come together. And that doesn't surprise me, especially the way 224 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: Paul when he said, yeah, I'm not playing in the 225 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: you know when you're going to play in the preseason, 226 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: I'm not playing. Let me ask you. Let me ask 227 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: you something just from the years of experience you have 228 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: covered Cardinals are covering the NFL. When you have a 229 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: quarterback who is working on chemistry with a new wide receiver, 230 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: yea given. I know that. You know, training camp, Kyler 231 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: missed a week with COVID Hollywood Brown has you know, 232 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: he had that hamstring in the beginning of training camp, 233 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: so they haven't had the full training camp with full practices. 234 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 1: And I get that, But in your experience, when you 235 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: see a new wide receiver in a quarterback who don't 236 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: play any preseason games together. Do you see a delay 237 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: in the regular season of the chemistry or is what 238 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: they do in practice enough to ride off the bat 239 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: feel good about it? Like, I'm just it's curious if 240 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: they're really that behind as what a normal why here 241 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: wide receiver would look like with your quarterback is This 242 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: is where Paul and I diverge. He's a big believer 243 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: in chemistry and working together. I feel like all these years, 244 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think you can do none of it, 245 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: but I do. I've come to that position where it's like, Okay, 246 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: it's football. If you're doing what you're supposed to be doing, 247 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,320 Speaker 1: I don't know how much chemistry is going to help 248 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: you as much as are you getting off the press 249 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,239 Speaker 1: coverage and are you being covered by a really good cornerback? 250 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like, I feel like there's 251 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: other factors that are more important than this quote unquote chemistry. 252 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: And I even look back at last year, do I 253 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 1: think that Kyler and aj Green had the best chemistry? No? Where, 254 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,079 Speaker 1: do I think it showed up more. I thought it 255 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: showed up more later in the season than early in 256 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: the season. So that doesn't make any sense. I just 257 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: think you can only get We have said this since 258 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: the beginning, in terms of the offseason workouts, when Kyler 259 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: Murray was here and wasn't I think that to an extent, Yes, 260 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: you can build chemistry in the offseason, and it's incredibly important. 261 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: I just wonder if how much of the chemistry in 262 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,679 Speaker 1: these training can't practices if you're not actually playing in 263 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: a preseason game, you're still going to have some delay 264 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: at the start of the season. No, so, but that 265 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: behind with Kyler in Hollywood. No, And I don't even know. 266 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: I don't even know if you're getting anything out of it, 267 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: even if you're playing the preseason game. Somebody said that today. 268 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: I tweeted out the thing about Kyler not playing in 269 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,719 Speaker 1: the preseason, and some guys said, I'd really like for 270 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: him to get at least one or two series, And 271 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 1: I'm like, what's one for chemistry? And I said, what's 272 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: one or two series in the preseason going to get 273 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: you on chemistry? That the whole point of chemistry is 274 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: a bunch of repetitions. If you just play one or 275 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: two series, it's not going to help you anyways. So 276 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: I don't I don't really understand the point. Now, again, 277 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: when Paul's talking about practice, that's a little bit different 278 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: of a thing. And they're starting to do that. But 279 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,839 Speaker 1: if we're talking about them starting, okay, we're looking at 280 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: it from the beginning of camp till exactly now, so 281 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: the vast majority they haven't practiced together. But assuming there's 282 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: no setbacks at this point, if you take this Monday 283 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: till the time they actually play the Chiefs, they're gonna 284 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: have a month together. I mean, okay, so what well, 285 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: how are they really going to be that off? You know, 286 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: in my opinion has evolved on this to Darren's point, 287 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: I'm coming closer to Darren's side of it. Here's the caveat. 288 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: I just worn him down. He's probably just sick of 289 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: hearing from me. Here's the caveat. In the preseason games, 290 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 1: you're just seeing such vanilla defenses. Anyway, what is the 291 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: true value? Is it really worthwhile the reps you are 292 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: getting and the reps are getting fewer and fewer. For example, 293 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: our Jim Amhandro looked it up a year ago and 294 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: the opener against Dallas Kyler d MP, the preseason finale 295 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: was at New Orleans. That was MP not played that's 296 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: us turning around in the air halfway to New Orleans. 297 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: So Week two was Kansas City. Kyler was all of 298 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: one of four for two yards. And you know what 299 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: I should have remembered? Yes, how often did we repeat that? 300 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: Going into the opener? All Kyler or Canny possibly be ready? 301 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: He was a one of four for two yards passing 302 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: in August? Can he really be ready for September? It all? 303 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: And he lit up the Titans? And then he went 304 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: out and I have it right here. Kyler in the 305 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: opener against the Titans, by the way, thirty eight to thirteen, 306 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: they jack stamped Tennessee at Nashville, and he went twenty 307 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: one to thirty two for two eighty nine, four touchdowns, 308 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: one pick. He had a rushing touchdown and a passer 309 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: rating on one twenty one. So that would seem to 310 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: fly in the face up. But here, this is where 311 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: I am going to get into practice. Man. Yes, Alan iverson, 312 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: as long as the practice is worthwhile, as long as 313 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: you're going eleven on eleven, as long as vance Joseph 314 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: is bringing some actual schemes, some exotic blitz schemes which 315 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: they do on purpose by design to try and give 316 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: the offense a real test. Think about the opener at 317 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: San Francisco two years ago, the COVID year twenty twenty. 318 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins fourteen grabs right out of the gate. Yeah, 319 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins was barely a participant in Cardinals campaign. Yet 320 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: that's a very true point. And I've made that point 321 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: multiple times myself with I mean, that's the thing. I mean, 322 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: it's just I think training camp and preseason games are 323 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: important for these guys that are trying to get on 324 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: the roster, impress people or impress people from other teams. 325 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: I get all that, But for some of these people, Now, 326 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: does that mean I'm not concerned about for instance, Rodney Hudson, 327 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: who wasn't around all offseason and admittedly thought about retiring 328 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: and still really isn't practicing. Yeah, I got a little 329 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: pause there, not because I don't think he could get 330 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: it done with a minimal practice, But now I'm wondering 331 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: exactly what's up. You know, is it he just doesn't 332 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: want to be out there his knees bothering him that much, 333 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: or is it literally like we're going to preserve him 334 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: like a mummy until we get to games. Maybe that's it, 335 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: But that kind of stuff makes me pause. But if 336 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: Kyler is going to go out there and be limited 337 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: in practice sometimes and not playing preseason games, you know, 338 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: I don't really I'm not that concerned. And I will 339 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 1: say this, Paul, you were in there. We can talk 340 00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: about the sore wrist and everything like that. Kyler kind 341 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: of allowed that he didn't feel all that great right 342 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: after COVID. So that week of barely doing anything last 343 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: week when he came back from COVID, Yeah, maybe that 344 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: was the rist. Maybe that was just Hey, I had 345 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 1: COVID for God's sake, and I just wasn't ready to 346 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: play football. Which if that was the case, I'd actually 347 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: feel better about things, because that makes a lot of sense. 348 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: In Look, I'll apply that to AJ Green. The more 349 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: we learned about AJ Green and what happened the latter 350 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 1: part of last season, he was coming off COVID and 351 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: did he ever truly get his legs back? Did he 352 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: ever truly get his cardio back? DJ Humphries said the 353 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: same thing. Yes, yeah he was, And so in Look, 354 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 1: DJ Humphries widely was considered to not have as good 355 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: a year in twenty one as he did in twenty 356 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 1: twenty well, how much of that, in hindsight really was COVID. 357 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: Same with aj Green the second half of his season. 358 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 1: So yes, indeed, Kyler did mention that he didn't feel 359 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: all that great coming off it. I really don't want 360 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: to get COVID, so you know, well, don't hang around 361 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 1: Ron Wolflett. So with that in mind, um ye had Kyler. 362 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 1: By the way, Kyler got a lot of questions today 363 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: about the play calling, which which was saw. I guess 364 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: that made for really good TV. I've not seen the 365 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: TV copy yet. We were in the radio booth, but 366 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: the right they just had a great time. I'm with 367 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: Kyler on camera wearing the headset right in the fourth quarter. 368 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: I didn't get the I mean, I'm watching until you 369 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: didn't see the feed up there either, But so so 370 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 1: basically everybody in this room hasn't seen the Cardinals TV feed. 371 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: So oh you did get to see at Dams. Oh okay, 372 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 1: that's right, because you're you're okay, Well, there we go. 373 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 1: We're one for four again, one for four and watching 374 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: The Godfather one for four and watching the Cardinals TV 375 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: coverage of the Bengals, even though we were there and 376 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,120 Speaker 1: saw it in person. True, so the two for four 377 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 1: on the rock. Yeah, but it was interesting that Kyler 378 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: had his quarterback trace Oils Jared Garantano at the time 379 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,959 Speaker 1: under center, right, he had him under center, and so 380 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 1: there was some interesting things there. And um, as Cliff 381 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: Kingsbury as explained to the media, it gives you an appreciation. 382 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: And I saw a joke with Cliff about this in 383 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 1: the pregame TV interview. He said, coach, everybody thinks they 384 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: can call plays. He nodded, he said, exactly, which would 385 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: might have been precisely what was behind putting the headset 386 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: on Kyler. Maybe a little better understanding of the offense 387 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: and a little bit better better understanding in the process, 388 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,199 Speaker 1: and maybe a little bit greater appreciation for the degree 389 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 1: of difficulty in calling plays, setting up your plays, you know, 390 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 1: figuring out, okay, which play is gonna actually correlate with 391 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 1: something else down the line. And as Kyler said, once 392 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 1: you call the play, it's out of your hands. Yeah, 393 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 1: that's the funniest part to me. And he's actually more 394 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 1: comfortable being the one on the recipient of receiving the 395 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: play because now you can do something with the play. 396 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 1: You're just helpless. The biggest thing Kyler Murray learned about 397 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 1: calling plays is that he really wants Kyler Murray is 398 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: at the quarterback. He wants to be on the receiving end, 399 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: actually running the play. So and you know what, by 400 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: all accounts, they obviously made a lot of strides a 401 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 1: year ago. And to push back on what Kyler told 402 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: you on the sideline, yes where he said, hey, these 403 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: things are all scripted. It's right here on paper. I'm 404 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: just basically citing the plays. And he was talking about practice, 405 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: so maybe they were scripted doing practice. But Cam Turner 406 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: on the big red rag said, well, you know those 407 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 1: plays do have checks, okay, so you can check in 408 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: a different thing, got it up until the fifteen second mark, 409 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: got it in the headset and so and then he 410 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 1: also said in the red zone that's pretty much up 411 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: to the play caller entirely. You can choose from your 412 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: menu a place. So so there's some back and forth 413 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: on that, but it's good nature stuff and it takes 414 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: some of the tedium off of training camp, if nothing else. 415 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: But once again Kyler to Hollywood Brown, that is something 416 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: to behold. And and didn't we see to start this 417 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: week we saw the ten personnel everybody wanted to see, right, Danny, 418 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 1: the ten personnel, those four wide receivers, go ahead, name names. 419 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: Talk about that because that's something that hopefully when the 420 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:53,719 Speaker 1: regular season starts, man, that's gonna that's potentially gonna get 421 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,880 Speaker 1: a lot of attention. So you're talking about those first 422 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,400 Speaker 1: six weeks, that would be AJ Green, Well, that's true, 423 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: you're right, sloppy again another, I'm just trying to figure 424 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: out that's at least three that I think at that 425 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: point we're talking about the top four guys when everybody's back, 426 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: So Hollywood Brown, DeAndre Hopkins, AJ Green more yep, Week seven, 427 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: Week seven, that'll be on Thursday Night football. Scary, I don't, 428 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know that there are other teams 429 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: that have here's the best part when you just say 430 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: it's pretty scary. My first thought is for Wolf, it's 431 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: really scary. You're talking about using ten personnel. Here's here's 432 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: a great thing. I do I think he's gonna when 433 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 1: they have all those guys, will they use ten personnel? Yeah? 434 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: But like I just feel like they've moved in such 435 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: a direction, like how often are they really gonna use 436 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: ten personnel? I mean, I think Ultimately, when Hop comes back, 437 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: I think the guy that's gonna lose some snaps is 438 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: aj Green, especially since um Cliff has said I want 439 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: to watch his snaps. This year, we probably overused them. 440 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 1: But when you have the tight ends, you do somebody, 441 00:21:55,480 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: somebody's got to not play right in From all accounts, 442 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: zach Ertz, even though we haven't seen very much of 443 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 1: him in this camp, he had a heck of an offseason. 444 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 1: In that first part of Cardinals camp, he looked really good. 445 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: So you're gonna try and get zach Ertz as many 446 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: snaps as possible in the regular season. I mean, you 447 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: think about the potential there because really, you know, as 448 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: the coaches will tell you, we major in three wide receivers, 449 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 1: they're really major and eleven personnel. Yeah, you know, does 450 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: Cliff run like that. That's that's sort of the way 451 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: the coach coach explained it to me last week in 452 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 1: the sideline. We Madejorn eleven personnel. Although the Cardinals I 453 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: think have led the league along with Sean McVay until 454 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: they adjusted their offensive year ago, and ten personnel, four 455 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: wide receivers. That's just part of the Cliff system. But 456 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: but to see the straight ahead run game in Cincinnati 457 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: and to see what the way the offensive line came 458 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: off the ball. I get it, they're mostly backups, but 459 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 1: if that signals a change in mentality, maybe a little bit. 460 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: I know. Steve Hyden, the tight ends coach, was on 461 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: the Red Sea Report with Craig Grilou and Drew Stanton. 462 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: He talked a little bit about that about incorporating more 463 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: the power run game this year because of that four 464 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 1: to five tight end room and because of the stable 465 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: of running backs, and because you have will Hernandez, a 466 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: little bit of nasty and some people who can up 467 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: round who can really make that happen. So, by the way, 468 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: speaking of running backs, Danny, what do you think who's 469 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: who are the clubhouse leaders and who's on the outside 470 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: looking in right now? This is a very tricky subject. 471 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: Darren and I were actually talking at practice about that 472 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: today because I truthfully don't know. I have a feeling 473 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: that they will carry four and put one on the 474 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 1: practice squad, but try to put one on the project. Yes, 475 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: it's this is a really interesting situation. You've got James Connor, 476 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: and you've got Darryl Williams, and you've got Eno Benjamin 477 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: and those three are set. I'm gonna I'm gonna say 478 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 1: eno Benjamin is set. Okay, So then it comes down 479 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: to Jonathan Ward, who is great on special teams, and 480 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: you're rookie Kiante Ingram who doesn't have a lot of 481 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: experience on special teams. But they like him and they 482 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,719 Speaker 1: like his potential. So is it too much to carry 483 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 1: four running backs and put Keanta Ingraham on the practice squad? 484 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: Is this a situation where you, Darren and I were talking. 485 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 1: I don't think you could put Jonathan Ward on the 486 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: practice squad and he doesn't get poached. I don't know 487 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,440 Speaker 1: if he makes it through waivers. Do you think he 488 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:28,120 Speaker 1: makes it through waivers? Bull, I'll tell you Jonathan Ward 489 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: that that is a good one. I mean, what's his 490 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 1: rep around the league in terms of the special team snaps? 491 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: I don't think he gets taken just as a running back. 492 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: I don't either, But that's the thing. You know, how 493 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: well known is he though? As a special team's demon? All? Right? 494 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 1: As somebody? But don't you guys agree? You know is set? 495 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: So it really comes down to Jonathan Ward of or right? Yeah? Well, 496 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: I will say this being around some personnel guys. You'd 497 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: be surprised with how much minutia these personnel guys, because 498 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 1: I've heard the personnel guys for the Cardinals talking, and 499 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: they trust me. They know everybody that's worth a day. 500 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: So my guess is somebody knows because it only takes 501 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,439 Speaker 1: one team to claim Jonathan Ward. You don't have to 502 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: have everybody love him. You just need one team that 503 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 1: needs a special teamer and a running back. Now, I'm 504 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: not saying that that would happen or that that's who 505 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 1: they cut. Here's another thought. You keep all five on 506 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:25,439 Speaker 1: the initial cutdown, and then at some point during the 507 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: week you make the release when everybody's kind of settled 508 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,239 Speaker 1: into their rosters, and then you try and sneak him 509 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 1: back on the practice squad. That's a guess. Yeah, no, 510 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,959 Speaker 1: I could see that happening. I don't know who they 511 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 1: would cut. I don't think they would cut Jonathan Ward. 512 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: I don't think they know right now. I mean, I 513 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: don't think they want to cut Jonathan Ward. But if 514 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:46,239 Speaker 1: I had a guess right now, I don't think they 515 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 1: want to cut Ingram either, right think about it. Though, 516 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,719 Speaker 1: Kanta Ingram was the nineteenth running back drafted. Yeah, so 517 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 1: what kind of market value would he have? Is anybody 518 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 1: automatically willing to put him on a fifty three man 519 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: as a rookie. And that's a good point. So if 520 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 1: you're thinking in terms of who would be the easiest 521 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: to get to the practice squad. But this is also 522 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 1: as much as you like Ingram, that might still be 523 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: the case. This is also a team though that kept 524 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:14,199 Speaker 1: Eno Benjamin a seventh round pick and probably more than 525 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: nineteen running backs were picked before him. They kept him 526 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,199 Speaker 1: on the active roster all season because they were afraid 527 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: if they cut him, somebody was going to take him. Honestly, Danny, I, 528 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 1: you know, I would say, you know, Benjamin, because of 529 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 1: his lack of special team's ability, he might be the 530 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: most susceptible. That'd be my guests right now, just based 531 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: on special teams, because you're one two punch of running 532 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,360 Speaker 1: back is going to be James Connor and Daryl Williams. 533 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 1: Why do you think? But but do you think that 534 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: if you are is Jonathan Yesterday, clip Kingsbury talked to 535 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 1: answer Darren's question real quick and talked about how those 536 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: two running backs have played big snaps in big games. 537 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: I think he likes the proven factor of those two guys. 538 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: So if it's between Jonathan Warden Eno Benjamin. Not even 539 00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,399 Speaker 1: talking about special teams, I'm talking about game play on offense, 540 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: you would put Jonathan Ward in over Eno Benjamin because 541 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: I think that's the difference there. I think they put 542 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 1: Eno playing over Jonathan Ward eight or nine out of 543 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 1: ten times. It's Jonathan Ward's special team's ability that really 544 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:17,400 Speaker 1: keeps him here. That's my point that Eno Benjamin would 545 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 1: be the most susceptible. He could be the one on 546 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: the outside looking in because that lack of special teams. Honestly, 547 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 1: when you're trying to construct a roster and Jeff Rogers 548 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 1: in there, is Jeff Rogers going to bad for Jonathan Ward, 549 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 1: I'd say, heck, yeah, okay, Keyanta Ingram. From talking to 550 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 1: personnel people on the sideline, he's been really good on 551 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: teams so far, even in coverage. He said he doesn't 552 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: think he's been that good when we talked to him, 553 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,479 Speaker 1: but he said he loves being physical and they do. 554 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 1: Like you know, and then just his rookie status, his 555 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 1: contract status, and the fact that you know, Benjamin is 556 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 1: going to be a free agent at the end of 557 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:52,959 Speaker 1: this year. So yeah, I mean I understand all that, 558 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: and who knows that it would be an upset at 559 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: this point if Eno wasn't on this team. But that's 560 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 1: what makes us intrigue is you could have a valid 561 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 1: argument for he one of those three guys making or 562 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: being cut from this team. And so that's probably the 563 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: position group you're watching the most at this point. Yeah, 564 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,199 Speaker 1: the back end of the receiver room is intriguing. And 565 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what that Greg Dorge press conference to 566 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: start this week, that was something? Was it not listening 567 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: to Greg Doorge sayd he was cut five times his 568 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: first two years, three times his rookie year and the 569 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: fact that he's still around and now gonna, I mean, 570 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 1: come on, Greg Dorge has a spot in this team, 571 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't you say, Danny? I do? Yeah, I think he does. 572 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 1: For sure. He's been day to day with that knee injury, 573 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: but he practiced on Tuesday. So but I think he 574 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: has looked good and consistent in training camp. And now 575 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: he's not the big body that Aj Green, Antoine Wesley 576 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins are, but I think that he has looked 577 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: good in practice. He's one of those guys and I'm 578 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: gonna do it again with Antonio Hamilton. I'm gonna site 579 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: it to the young Punk's accoustic KALVISI see that guy 580 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: right there, he was cut five times. Did he ever 581 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: give up? No, he didn't quit. It's my dad's speech, 582 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: you know, the inspirational speech. How about Antonio Hamilton's what 583 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: he told the media. He walked on at a small college, 584 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: transferred to South Carolina State, walked on there, earned a 585 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: half scholarship by his senior year when undrafted, been fighting 586 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: to make an NFL roster. And now, honestly, if you 587 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 1: made me draw up a depth chart, I think he's 588 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: your number two corner behind Byron Murphy. I think he 589 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 1: is ahead of Marko Wilson. I don't want to get 590 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: because we do need to talk about Antonio Hamilton's. But 591 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: but you do realize when we talk about that Greg 592 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: Dortch's and the Antonio Hamilton's or how Tom Brady was 593 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: a sixth round pick, you realize that we're talking about 594 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: them because they're they're the unicorns. They're the outliers for 595 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: the thousands and millions that got cut five times because 596 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: they're just not good enough. I just thought I mentioned 597 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: that you know what, speaking sorry, speaking of never giving up, 598 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: I just got to say, Paul Paul's hot take from 599 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: months ago that you know, Benjamin was getting all this praise. 600 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: They were trying to pump him up for a trade. 601 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: Maybe it might still be in the card. So Paul 602 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: listened to Antonio, listen to Greg Dortch. Your hot takes 603 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: might actually come true one day. I haven't forgotten about 604 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: that one. That's a good point. I thought, when you 605 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: where you're going, when you're saying never giving up, I 606 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: thought you're going to talk about your Trey McBride interview. 607 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 1: But oh, Darren, why would you call him out like that? 608 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: No comment? I think going back to the original point, 609 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: Antonio Hamilton, I think has looked really good. I thought 610 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 1: he looked good in the preseason game, and he's definitely 611 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: looked good in practice. And when you look at I 612 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: think Josh Jackson has looked pretty good in practice, and 613 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 1: I thought he looked pretty decent in the games. It's 614 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: the quarterback situations really easy. And Christian Matthew. Yeah right, 615 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: But that's a good problem because in terms of number 616 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: and death is it it's a little different than running. Yeah, 617 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: because you can you can keep all that you're talking about? Yeah, 618 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: compared to running backs, I thought you meant. I thought 619 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 1: you meant like we've now proven that they don't need 620 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: help at cornerback, which I don't know if as well 621 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: as all that's gone, I still don't know if we're there. 622 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want to tell Antonio Hamilton that 623 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: because he made it very clear that he thinks somebody 624 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 1: saying what I'm just saying is full of In fact, 625 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: you asked Antonio Hamilton that in a roundabout way, just 626 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: to well, I'm trying not to get too many, you know, 627 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: slings in air that the outsiders aren't exactly bullish on 628 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 1: the caliber of the Cardinals cornerback room. And he sort 629 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:25,239 Speaker 1: of paused, and then he said, well, look, and I'm 630 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: quoting him loosely. He said, if any of those people 631 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: think we're all slouches in that room, they got another 632 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: thing coming. I did think that was that was a 633 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: good line. It was a great line. And I my 634 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 1: phone at that point was hosing me and I couldn't 635 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: tweet it out, but it was a great quote. It 636 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: was something like that. And so and you know what 637 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 1: with Christian Matthew you need my I phone, Paul with 638 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: Christian with Christian Matthew, I'm just there's a lot of 639 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: things I need. We know what we need another podcast 640 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: for all the things I'm gonna list around here. He 641 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 1: reminds me a little bit of Marco Wilson last year. 642 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: We'll bet, we'll bet. I'm not saying he's bidden to 643 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: be a starter or anything like Marco Wilson was, but 644 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: there was something Christian Kirk told us on a big 645 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: Red Rage last year, and that if you want to 646 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 1: judge a cornerback, don't necessarily look at his wins, look 647 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: at his losses. Yeah, when he's beat how badly he 648 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: is he beaten. And they knew Marco Wilson could play 649 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: last year because when he was beaten, he wasn't beaten 650 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: by much. Yeah, he wasn't torched, and he wasn't absolutely destroyed, 651 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: and guys weren't running free with huge separation. And so 652 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: that's the same thing with Christian Matthew. When you keep 653 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: your eye on him, he's right there within range, and 654 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: he's on the hip of most receivers. He had a 655 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: couple of pass breakups in the preseason game, albeit against 656 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: the lesser receivers. It wasn't the big three for the 657 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: Bengals out there. I get it. But even in camp 658 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: against some of the Cardinals starting receivers, he's faired pretty well. 659 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 1: I keep thinking when you mentioned barely beating I keep 660 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: thinking of that Marco play last year when Christian or 661 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: a Cooper Cup caught the touchdown in the corner of 662 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: the money game, and I'm like, I don't think Marco 663 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 1: Wilson could get any closer to the player or the 664 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: ball without getting it. But I think of how Marco 665 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: Wilson was also beaten by O. B. J. Right, not 666 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: by a lot, just enough to make the catch, which 667 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: is life in the NFL. But then think of how 668 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: bad Obj, before he got hurt in the Super Bowl 669 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: was making the Bengals secondary look. Think about think of 670 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: how bad Cooper Cup made basically every other corner in 671 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: the league look last year in this triple crown or receiver. 672 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: What I do love about Christian Matthew and I happened 673 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 1: to pass him in the bowels of the stadium today 674 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 1: when I was walking one when he was walking the others. 675 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: You forget how tall he is, I mean, he's he's tall, 676 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: and if you could get a tall cornerback that would 677 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: just be wonderful. Look, I think we're to that point, 678 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 1: and obviously if they were really bad, we'd be able 679 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 1: to tell. But I think we're to that point in 680 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 1: camp where it's like it's easy to fall in with 681 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: the rose colored glasses, like, oh, you know, maybe they 682 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: do have this great cornerback room, or maybe it's an 683 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: underrated cornerback room. And I do know that there's a 684 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 1: lot of people in the personnel department that actually like 685 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: a lot of their young guys and they think they 686 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: might be a little bit underrated in terms of who 687 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 1: they have a corner But we're not going to know 688 00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: until we know. And unfortunately, that's going to come against 689 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: maybe one of the best passing off fights in the league. Well, 690 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: and I will say this, Paul preseason was waxing effusive 691 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: about the corners, and somebody who knows a lot more 692 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 1: football than years truly pointed out, Hey, Paul, think of 693 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks they've been going against. Yeah, well, think of 694 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks in the Bengals game they went against. For 695 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: the most part, in Cardinals camp, they have not gone 696 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,439 Speaker 1: against Kyler Murray or Colt McCoy. That's a good point. 697 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: So can you get a true read yet on some 698 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 1: of those? I hate to say it, but yeah, again 699 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:35,760 Speaker 1: to a certain extent, though, I think that's every player 700 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: and every preseason. You can only get so much from 701 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: these training camp practices. And it's not like any of 702 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: those big quarterbacks or you know, not even just the quarterbacks, 703 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 1: those big star starting players on any team is ever 704 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 1: playing preseason games. So while I agree with you, I 705 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 1: don't think that's just to assess the cornerbacks this year. 706 00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: I think that's literally every every position, every preseason. All right, 707 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 1: So the two of you pronounce and declare the cornerback 708 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: room regular season ready, ready to go. Both. That's good. Now, 709 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: if you're gonna put words where our mouth, it could 710 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:13,760 Speaker 1: have been worse. So okay, the next and the interests 711 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 1: of a segue, I'm just going to summarize and move 712 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 1: on accordingly. The next big question mark obviously in the 713 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: defense pass rush, and after Victor d mucage had a 714 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: couple of sacks and Dennis Gardeck looked good. Um, you're 715 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: feeling good about that too, Danny, Are you ready to 716 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 1: stamp the seal of approval on the edge guys, I 717 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,359 Speaker 1: am I'm not. I don't think I'll feel ready until 718 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 1: we have no choice. It's you just have. Even those 719 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: veterans Dennis Gardek, Dvon Kannard, they don't have a lot 720 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:45,320 Speaker 1: of experience with that consistent high snap count game after 721 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 1: game after game. They're gonna have to be relied on 722 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: very differently than they have up until this point here 723 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:55,320 Speaker 1: in Arizona. And with those rookies Cam Thomas, my J. Sanders, 724 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: you're not going to know until a couple weeks into 725 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,439 Speaker 1: the season when they really understand the speed of the game. 726 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 1: So right now, while you have is Marcus Golden, who 727 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 1: we have not actually you don't have who we have 728 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: not seen practice and I don't have account almost two weeks. 729 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,280 Speaker 1: I think it's been more than two weeks, maybe dealing 730 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 1: with a toe. So no, I I am not feeling 731 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 1: good about the pass rush situation at all. Um, Darren, 732 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: didn't you ask the head coach today about Marcus gold Yes, 733 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 1: and what was the answer? Paraphrasing, but I would I 734 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 1: believe he said something along the lines of we feel 735 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 1: like he's going to be okay and he'll be ready 736 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:36,320 Speaker 1: to go okay. All right, there you go, um, and look, 737 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: he's the one proven guy on the edge. So if 738 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: he needs all of August sort of like a JJ 739 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 1: Watt last year, and he's ready to go in week one, 740 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: who cares? Okay, great, but they do need to figure 741 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 1: out the other guys. He's thirty one, he's been around 742 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 1: almost a decade. Come on, you know. The bigger questions 743 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 1: for the interest is discussion. Take camp off and say 744 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: I've been around for two decades. And but but Darren, 745 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 1: you know who would wear the hood while we're on 746 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,240 Speaker 1: the air. Here in the end, Chilian, here's now. Although 747 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 1: it's chilly, you have a jacket, but you don't have 748 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 1: it all on my legs. It's on my lap. You 749 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 1: missed yesterday when I did Cover two with the hoodie 750 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: and I stood up. It was way colder yesterday. Okay, 751 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 1: I just thought I mentioned that because almost is going 752 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,880 Speaker 1: to break out the little video of me dancing around 753 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 1: the time laps. That's great. Yeah, yeah, this it's captioned 754 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: this which one is the Arizona native with the ultra 755 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 1: thin blood and U that's Darren right there in the 756 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,880 Speaker 1: time laps. Looks like he's in line the DMB, just 757 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 1: standing there. Okay, I get you. No, Paul, I I 758 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 1: do not feel good about the pass rush. Such a 759 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,919 Speaker 1: really okay, Why why do you disagree? No, I don't 760 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,439 Speaker 1: necessarily disagree. I just um, you know, Victor Demo Cage 761 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,919 Speaker 1: I think is intriguing. Yes, I think he's done something 762 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 1: that rarely ever happens. If you talk to some of 763 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 1: the people who watch these players day in and day out, 764 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:11,800 Speaker 1: he's actually improved his get off, his explosion. He's redefined 765 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: his body. I'm told he's not nearly as boxy, if 766 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: that makes sense as a year ago. He's he's slimmed down, 767 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 1: he's lost some weight, he did some different sort of 768 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: weight training to be more explosive, to be faster off 769 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: the edge. I asked him that question of the press 770 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 1: conference to start this week, and he agreed. He definitely 771 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 1: feels faster. He can see it on film. According to 772 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 1: Victor Dimukeje that he's getting off and getting that edge quicker. 773 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 1: And let me tell you, if he's added that to 774 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,359 Speaker 1: his game, the rest of his game was there. He's 775 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: very stout at the point of attack, he can set 776 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: an edge, He's very strong, and so it was intriguing. 777 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 1: One of the old lineman. Real Quick described him as 778 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 1: sort of a Marcus Golden Light, sort of that type 779 00:38:54,760 --> 00:39:00,879 Speaker 1: of said that when he got drafted. Intriguing position group. 780 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 1: Dennis Gardeck has had a really great camp, lots of 781 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 1: people to root for, lots of good dudes. But this, 782 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 1: to me is a baptism by fi. What is it? 783 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 1: Baptism by fire? I feel like we're not going to 784 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 1: know what this team has until we not even just 785 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,480 Speaker 1: week one, but a couple of weeks into the season, 786 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 1: and that that's just at this point I think it 787 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,399 Speaker 1: it is what it is for at least the first 788 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:27,399 Speaker 1: few weeks, until rosters really start to settle down. It's 789 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: fascinating talk about a baptism by fire in your first 790 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 1: game is against Patrick Mahomes. Yikes, Yeah, don't say fire. 791 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 1: Some bikes. Darren wants a fire to warm his hands 792 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 1: around right now, So try not to say fire. Maybe 793 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: the Cardinals plan here. Maybe I just like the look 794 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:46,240 Speaker 1: pole and if we talked of answer wearing a buckett indoors, 795 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 1: it's stylish. Maybe if we had next time we advanced 796 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: Joseph in front the podium, we need to ask him 797 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 1: this question. Tell me if it's a valid question before 798 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: I embarrass myself in front of my colleagues. Are you 799 00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: left handed? Absolutely? Yes, indeed yes, I did I know 800 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 1: that despite my Italian grandfather telling my mother to tie 801 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: my left hand behind my back right, uh. She she 802 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 1: never cave to my Italian grandfather. I noticed that. Here's 803 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,879 Speaker 1: the deal, fine, motor skills and so forth, left hand 804 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: power stuff, right hand on the bullpen fire gas with 805 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: the right hand. Yeah, but if you were lefty, you 806 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: could have made it to the majors. Ping pong is 807 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: sort in between. I can play with either hand because 808 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,439 Speaker 1: it's in between. It's not really it's not really power, 809 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 1: it's not necessarily fine, you know, motor skills. It's in between. 810 00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:33,399 Speaker 1: So that's how that works. Wow, that was a great 811 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,839 Speaker 1: little sidebar. I'm sorry, please continue. I don't even remember 812 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 1: what we're talking about. So my point was Marcus Golden 813 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,760 Speaker 1: and and the answer is multiple choice. Yeah, the answer 814 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 1: I guess would be all the above. A. Dennis Gardek, B. 815 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 1: Devon Kannard, see Victor de Moncage, D my J. Sanders, 816 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 1: and I'm not ready to quite include Cam Thomas in 817 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:00,040 Speaker 1: there yet. But if you take a through D the 818 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: answer is actually E all the above. That's your bookend 819 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:07,360 Speaker 1: with Marcus Golden, and that's the Cardinal's competitive advantage because 820 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:09,919 Speaker 1: that tackle. Now it's to deal with the pit bull 821 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:13,400 Speaker 1: that is Dennis Gardeck, the long, lean type guy like 822 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:15,719 Speaker 1: Amy J. Sanders. Wait a minute, here comes a victor 823 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:19,320 Speaker 1: DMOKG who's a total It's like the changeup versus a slider, 824 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 1: versus the curveball versus the fastball. If you're a pitcher, 825 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 1: you just keep changing it up on the tackle. And 826 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:26,760 Speaker 1: maybe that's the route that Cardinals go at that position. 827 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 1: I'm hoping that's the case. The Cardinals do not have 828 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 1: an easy schedule, especially when you look at a lot 829 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:37,320 Speaker 1: of the offensive lineman that they will be facing, and 830 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,320 Speaker 1: I think that's something to consider as well. They're a 831 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 1: lot consider how effective they're going to be. Exactly a 832 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: lot of these offensive linemen that they're facing are top 833 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: notch veterans who have seen a lot. So I'm I'm 834 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 1: not trying to be a negative Nancy. I'm just saying, 835 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:59,360 Speaker 1: sure you're not. You're just casting a critical eye on 836 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,600 Speaker 1: the situation. And Danny, you don't need to apologize for that. 837 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,319 Speaker 1: Oh I didn't. I didn't apologize I just said, I'm 838 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,800 Speaker 1: not trying to be negative. No, that's like saying I 839 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 1: don't want this to be negative criticism. Well, yeative, it 840 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 1: can be constructive. I mean it's next, there's constructive criticism. 841 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 1: Constructive criticism is still negative. It's feedback. Constructive criticism is 842 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,840 Speaker 1: just feedback, is what it is. I've heard somebody use 843 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 1: positive criticism two or three times since great training camp open. 844 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,719 Speaker 1: I'm like that there is no such thing. Okay, So 845 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 1: all right, what I'm getting here because the two of 846 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,800 Speaker 1: your a waffling, unlike the cornerback room that's been declared 847 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: regular season ready, you're not willing to say the same 848 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 1: about the edge group. Correct. Okay, all right, so you 849 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 1: have that. Can we feel better about defensive line because 850 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:47,800 Speaker 1: JJ wat and Zach Allen, who are not going to 851 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 1: see a preseason snap I predict they will not. They're 852 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:54,840 Speaker 1: your starters. And then there's some really good competition behind 853 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 1: those guys, whether it's a Rashaun Lawrence who was in 854 00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 1: the backfield a couple of times in Cincinnati. Lecky Foe 855 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: two described recently by Zach Allen is three hundred pounds 856 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 1: of Torso that was it was a great one that 857 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 1: was solid. I enjoyed that one. And then you have 858 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,719 Speaker 1: a couple of guys who were really scrapping veterans to 859 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:13,880 Speaker 1: make this roster, who'd have showed up pretty well in 860 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 1: a Christian Ringo and an Antoine woods Manny Jones who 861 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 1: saw Manny Jones coming alive in that preseason game. That's intriguing. 862 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:24,399 Speaker 1: I don't think it'll be enough to make the final 863 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,319 Speaker 1: fifty three. I thought Jonathan Ledbetter played pretty well. Led 864 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:31,400 Speaker 1: absolutely Ledbetter did, and uh that's a lot of defensive 865 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,880 Speaker 1: labman there may or may not have been at the 866 00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 1: bottom of what was described as a six car pile 867 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: up in camp, but uh so he's number ninety three 868 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 1: on your roster. So I'm feeling a little bit better 869 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,799 Speaker 1: about defensive tackle because remember, coming into camp, we're all wondering, now, 870 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 1: is there going to be a time time sign at corner, 871 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,440 Speaker 1: at edge rusher, and maybe d tackle. Here's the thing 872 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:53,480 Speaker 1: we've got to I think we've got to make a 873 00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,239 Speaker 1: decision one way or the other. Are we gonna go 874 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 1: with the Drew Stanton who have they played a corner 875 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:02,000 Speaker 1: quarterback kind of are you mate for the whole defense? 876 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 1: Or are we gonna we can't praise the defensive line 877 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 1: and then say we're not sure about the pass rush, 878 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 1: or we can't say the cornerback needs somebody. But you know, 879 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:12,799 Speaker 1: I feel like it's all got to be all all 880 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: or nothing because they're they're playing all the same offensive players. Danny. 881 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 1: I'm just going to continue the point I've made of 882 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 1: it's every player that's going up against these non starters, 883 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 1: So you want them to look great, and that's what 884 00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 1: you expect because they're also going up against non starters, 885 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:37,960 Speaker 1: So that's the level of play you want them to 886 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 1: be at better than the alternative. I don't think you know, 887 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 1: and any of these younger players, whether that's individually or 888 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 1: how they work as a group, truly until you get 889 00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:50,800 Speaker 1: to the regular season. Okay, so what is different about 890 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 1: this preseason than preseason's pasted? Danny's here next week next 891 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 1: week at Tennessee. Yeah, now you're going to see a 892 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: Jonathan Ledbetter, Right, any of these guys against against the 893 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 1: Titans again, starters can start. I mean, so really, this 894 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 1: is all just the build up in the preamble to 895 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:20,360 Speaker 1: get to the final decision. The final episode of this 896 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 1: reality original sports reality TV show known as training camp 897 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 1: as chronicled on Hard Knocks as you're the Lions Cardinals 898 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: in the second half of the season. But this will 899 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:35,440 Speaker 1: all come to fruition in Tennessee. Two big time practices 900 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 1: next Wednesday and Thursday, and then you're going to see 901 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:42,840 Speaker 1: a lot of these guys who are necessarily maybe you know, 902 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 1: gonna bring it to the intensity level against their own teammates, 903 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 1: but against the Titans, they better are. Also they're going 904 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 1: to be embarrassed. Yeah, and the coaches are gonna be 905 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:56,280 Speaker 1: there sitting there waiting to make final decisions because basically 906 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:57,759 Speaker 1: a lot of Nobodi's are going to play in the 907 00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 1: final preseason game. Well, and that's that's the big thing 908 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 1: for me for this Tennessee week because this is essentially 909 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,399 Speaker 1: we talked earlier about whether guys should play and whether 910 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,080 Speaker 1: Kyler should play in the preseason. This is it. This 911 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:11,879 Speaker 1: is instead of playing in a preseason game these two 912 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 1: practices against the Titans, this is their preseason game as 913 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:19,240 Speaker 1: it were. It's gonna be a lot more controlled. Obviously 914 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 1: there's not gonna be live tackling, but this is essentially 915 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 1: what it's. You're going against another team, You're gonna go 916 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 1: against their ones probably on some snaps and you are 917 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:33,400 Speaker 1: this is the best test Kyler Murray, for instance, is 918 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 1: going to get in the preseason or Hollywood Brown or 919 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 1: Isaiah Simmons or whatever I mean I got. I hope 920 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 1: we can talk about it and it's not closed to 921 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,880 Speaker 1: the media. Well, you know, I made the mistake of 922 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:48,719 Speaker 1: just presuming it was going to be open because other 923 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,960 Speaker 1: times we've done joint practices, they have been funded. The 924 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:55,279 Speaker 1: Eagles have one open practice this year, the Titans have two. Right, 925 00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:58,360 Speaker 1: So is there any chance the Titans two open practices 926 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 1: to be the two these are going to be closed? 927 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 1: It's the question It becomes whether we're going to be 928 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:08,600 Speaker 1: able to say anything as media members. But they're already 929 00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 1: I already know they're not open to the public. Well 930 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 1: that's what I mean. As a media, can we report 931 00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: That's because what teams have done now is basically, if 932 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 1: it's not open to the public, then they figure then 933 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,360 Speaker 1: we don't have to let the media report on anything. 934 00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:23,719 Speaker 1: When it's open to the public, they would probably rather 935 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 1: not have the media report anything. But it's kind of 936 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 1: foolish when you've got you know, five thousand people there 937 00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,399 Speaker 1: with camera phones being able to do whatever they want. 938 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 1: So that means instead of going to practice, Paul, you 939 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:36,879 Speaker 1: can just hang out on Broadway all day. Yeah, that's good. 940 00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,240 Speaker 1: You know, I'll just join one of the bachelorette parties. 941 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 1: There's like dozens of minuting given time there's a bachelotte 942 00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 1: party on a Tuesday morning that day. I was just 943 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,839 Speaker 1: going to ask a lot of a lot of fun. 944 00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 1: Does anybody is anybody shocked that Danny has been to 945 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 1: a bachelorette party in Nashville? But it's one out of four? 946 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 1: It was not the bride. I I didn't say you 947 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 1: were the bride. It was my decision. I'm just saying, 948 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:05,080 Speaker 1: I I it's all like I chose to go to 949 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 1: Nashville for you have some strict friends that I'm going 950 00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 1: to tell you to be here, and if you don't 951 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 1: show up, what you go to jail? No, But like 952 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 1: the bride picks the location, it's not like I chose 953 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:18,839 Speaker 1: nash Understand, It's not like you turn it down. I'm 954 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 1: just saying, I mean, at this point, is Nashville better 955 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 1: known for country music or bachelotte parties? Honestly, that's a thing. 956 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,239 Speaker 1: I think it's a fair question, very good question. And 957 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:31,399 Speaker 1: let me tell you something after going to there, going 958 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 1: there last year for the road trip and to open 959 00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:36,279 Speaker 1: the season. Like, I've been to Nashville a handful of 960 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,279 Speaker 1: times on road trips, and Broadway always used to be 961 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,440 Speaker 1: kind of cool. But Broadway was still a street. We 962 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:42,840 Speaker 1: go there last year. You can't even drive on Broadway anymore. 963 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 1: They've closed it down, so everybody can walk in it, 964 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 1: and it's way bigger and it's it's fun. People can 965 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,440 Speaker 1: get in trouble. Yeah, but there's there's at least two 966 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:52,960 Speaker 1: or three bars on that strip that doesn't play country music. 967 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,279 Speaker 1: I've been in find me there, Yeah, I've been in 968 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 1: those two. I'm going to walk up later than I 969 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 1: should or earlier, depending on you know how you're at 970 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 1: the clock. But I'm gonna walk up and down looking 971 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 1: for the next Chris Stapleton. I saw a documentary on 972 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 1: him recently, and he said he just went to Nashville 973 00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 1: and he went on the corner and just started playing 974 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,239 Speaker 1: his guitar and singing whatever songs he had written at 975 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 1: that point. He made forty dollars in one day. Oh, 976 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 1: come on, I was right. No, he's a modern day 977 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:25,880 Speaker 1: country music star. Twenty twenty two. I thought that was 978 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,840 Speaker 1: Ross Brooks. You guys have a lot to learn before 979 00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: you go to Nashville. My goodness. In fact, you know what, 980 00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 1: your travel pieces have been revoked for that comment, because 981 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:36,719 Speaker 1: thou shalt not be allowed to travel to Nashville if 982 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 1: you if you're gonna, you know, spew stuff like that 983 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 1: nash Vegas. Baby, do you have cowboy boots? No? I don't. 984 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:44,759 Speaker 1: I grew up in the Silicon Valley. I definitely don't 985 00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:47,360 Speaker 1: have cowboy boots. No. And if I do, I'm a 986 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 1: complete fraud. Okay, there's absolutely no no chance whatsoever. So anyway, 987 00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 1: my point was that a Manny Jones going in joint 988 00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 1: practice against a Titan starting offensive lineman, if he fares well, okay, 989 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 1: that can be a much better barometer of whether he 990 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:07,680 Speaker 1: belongs on the fifty three the true blowing up the 991 00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 1: Bengals third string, right, I would agree that. But but 992 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:11,879 Speaker 1: at the same time, too, aren't we I mean, we're 993 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:14,520 Speaker 1: till the point too, are we any of us sitting 994 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 1: in here going for the fifty three man roster? They 995 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 1: don't know who fifty one of them are already, or 996 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,480 Speaker 1: if they're down to fifty five we're talking about the 997 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:26,200 Speaker 1: decisions we were talking about earlier, Like it could be Ward, 998 00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:28,520 Speaker 1: it could be Ingram, or it could be Eno. But 999 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:31,480 Speaker 1: I mean it's I don't know. And as much as 1000 00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:34,279 Speaker 1: it probably sounds like I'm dogging on these preseason games, 1001 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,040 Speaker 1: I do think that's where they play an important role. 1002 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 1: It's maybe not necessarily about the players you're going against, 1003 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:43,600 Speaker 1: but those younger not even just rookies, but those younger 1004 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 1: or newer players on your team picking up schemes and 1005 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:51,400 Speaker 1: just under you know, going through the fundamentals of the 1006 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,120 Speaker 1: game and how the offense or defense has called here. 1007 00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:55,640 Speaker 1: And so I think if you get down you know 1008 00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 1: you're fifty one, you got to look at those last 1009 00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:01,120 Speaker 1: two spots. That's where preseason games really play a big 1010 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:03,920 Speaker 1: role in That is not necessarily of how well you 1011 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,880 Speaker 1: played going up against their four string wide receiver, but 1012 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:09,759 Speaker 1: you know, how well were you understanding the scheme and 1013 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 1: in the right place at the right time and understanding 1014 00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 1: your role. So you're totally on board. Then Danny with 1015 00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:17,680 Speaker 1: the Ravens twenty one game preseason win streak, is that 1016 00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 1: what you're saying, Sure, Paul, that is a curious thing, 1017 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:24,320 Speaker 1: isn't it. I mean, do they really value that? Do 1018 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,320 Speaker 1: do they really value that? I don't. Obviously they do 1019 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 1: to some degree. I don't. I don't know. I'd have 1020 00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 1: to go back. But what does that really mean. I 1021 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 1: don't know if they've necessarily played I think they've lucked 1022 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:37,799 Speaker 1: into being so far. Do I think John Harbos sits 1023 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,480 Speaker 1: back and says I love having this a winning streak. No? Do. 1024 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,239 Speaker 1: I think there's a small part of them that loves 1025 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,359 Speaker 1: the fact that keeps coming up. I'm sure you're sure 1026 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 1: it doesn't hurt his feelings. I think the bigger deal 1027 00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:51,800 Speaker 1: forget the twenty one game Ravens preseason win streak. Obviously 1028 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,000 Speaker 1: it's the black helmets. Oh they're so sleek, you like them. 1029 00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 1: They're black, but then when they're up close, when they 1030 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 1: hit the light differently, there's like a hint of red 1031 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 1: and they've got like a little shine to it. It's 1032 00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:07,840 Speaker 1: not like I know from Afar and video or pictures 1033 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:09,800 Speaker 1: people might be seeing online it might look like the 1034 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:14,759 Speaker 1: plane black Falcon's helmet, and it is so far from 1035 00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:17,360 Speaker 1: that when you get to see it up close in person. 1036 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,960 Speaker 1: I know that Asycarnels dot Com has a video. Kyler 1037 00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 1: Murray JJ Watt. We have a couple of players that 1038 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:24,719 Speaker 1: look at the helmet for the first time when you 1039 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 1: get to see it's really close up and you really 1040 00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 1: get to see the details of the helmet. I really 1041 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:31,759 Speaker 1: like them. I think they're sleek. I mean, Danny did 1042 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:34,319 Speaker 1: tell me earlier that she had tried to get one 1043 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 1: of those and wear that instead of the bucket hat, 1044 00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 1: but they wouldn't give her one. I think I would 1045 00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:41,920 Speaker 1: look good in that with I would wear that the 1046 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,279 Speaker 1: visor though, oh, I could see that. Yeah. Can you 1047 00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:46,320 Speaker 1: take the bucket at into the equipment guys and have 1048 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:48,480 Speaker 1: them give you a paint job akin to the black helmet? 1049 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:49,800 Speaker 1: Can you do that? You know the same time you 1050 00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 1: don't like the white bucket hat you guys were such hat. Well, no, 1051 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:59,520 Speaker 1: you need the alternate bucket at to complete I like 1052 00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:03,560 Speaker 1: that idea, Paula. See, I can't get my will versus 1053 00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:06,920 Speaker 1: everybody T shirt made or the other unnamed rookie offensive 1054 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,240 Speaker 1: lineman that was taken in the seventh round against everybody 1055 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 1: that one made, either. But maybe in terms of merch 1056 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 1: we can get an alternate bucket at and you could 1057 00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:16,080 Speaker 1: you could wear that free d hop shirt that so 1058 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:18,560 Speaker 1: many of his teammates were wearing. That's a good one. 1059 00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:23,360 Speaker 1: All the I Andy shirts are in some thorough world country. 1060 00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:29,040 Speaker 1: Isaiah Isaiah, that's right, that's right where you know. I 1061 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:32,239 Speaker 1: haven't been beating set drum nearly enough. Paul's an idea, man, 1062 00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 1: one time. One idea is going to stick. See Manna's 1063 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:41,399 Speaker 1: to Here's the thing. I mean, the Isaiah obviously can't 1064 00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:43,520 Speaker 1: take off until he gets game reps. So we'll see 1065 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:46,440 Speaker 1: Isaiah come a week one against Kansas. You can't wait, 1066 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 1: you know. That's That's that's when it'll really get traction. 1067 00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 1: Here's what's annoying is I don't like it, but I 1068 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:54,840 Speaker 1: know it's going to stick on this podcast. Yeah, just 1069 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,840 Speaker 1: like no, no, I it totally is. I try to 1070 00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:01,200 Speaker 1: distance myself from my Andy, but guys like Darren keep 1071 00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:03,359 Speaker 1: bringing it up. And that's what happens to us. Where 1072 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 1: are the ones are going to keep bringing up? Heah. 1073 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 1: So if you get an alternate bucket hat, I am 1074 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:12,400 Speaker 1: totally tweeting that. So Danie, I'll have an alternate bucket 1075 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 1: hat before she watches the See if you get an 1076 00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:17,279 Speaker 1: alternate bucket hat, then all the responses of the tweet 1077 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:19,240 Speaker 1: are gonna be like, when are you getting an alternate 1078 00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 1: Danny uniform? And then a good point, when are you 1079 00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:29,200 Speaker 1: getting near? Okay, all right, well, I am curious to 1080 00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:32,200 Speaker 1: see how the TV lights, the bright lights hit the 1081 00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 1: helmet and how it looks on national TV. And because 1082 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:38,520 Speaker 1: I you know, ideally that's where you can really it's 1083 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:40,319 Speaker 1: sort of like, because I know you guys are all 1084 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,480 Speaker 1: about the car auctions that every January in Scottsdale that 1085 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 1: are televised, Well, you know, boom with the bright lights 1086 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:47,879 Speaker 1: and the cameras they hit the paint job and it's 1087 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:50,360 Speaker 1: going across the block. That's when you can really appreciate 1088 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:52,520 Speaker 1: the paint job. That's true, as opposed to parking in 1089 00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 1: someone's garage and dim lighting the trace McSorley Revenge Game. 1090 00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 1: That's right, Sam Huff Revenge Game video. It's editor extra 1091 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:03,279 Speaker 1: and there, that's right. That's right. There's one quarterback in 1092 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 1: this roster who has thrown an NFL touchdown pass to 1093 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:09,360 Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown. His name is Tracy McSorley, the former Ravens 1094 00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:11,759 Speaker 1: quarterback through a seventy yard well basically it was a 1095 00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:14,480 Speaker 1: twenty yard pass. Hollywood caught it and he gone. He 1096 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,799 Speaker 1: went fifty yards to the house. So, uh, there you going, 1097 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:20,719 Speaker 1: by the way, Tracey McSorley to come full circle. He 1098 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 1: certainly wasn't sloppy. He was out there. It looked like 1099 00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:25,440 Speaker 1: he had a pretty good command. I thought you were 1100 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:31,200 Speaker 1: gonna say he wasn't in the Godfather, right he led? Look, 1101 00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:33,400 Speaker 1: and he wasn't a Sonny. He was a Michael. He 1102 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:36,399 Speaker 1: led a nine play seventy nine yard drive in three 1103 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:39,360 Speaker 1: fifty two. He was executing all the way down the 1104 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:41,839 Speaker 1: field instead of going for an eighty yard bomb. I'll 1105 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:43,879 Speaker 1: be honest. When you opened this podcast and you said 1106 00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:45,920 Speaker 1: Michael first, all I could think of was Michael Bidwell, 1107 00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:47,600 Speaker 1: and I'm like, where's he going with this? I thought, 1108 00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:52,080 Speaker 1: Michael Scott. By the by the way, has anyone gotten 1109 00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,520 Speaker 1: a ride cross town in the in the helicopter yet? 1110 00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:58,680 Speaker 1: Is that that would be good? That's not me me either. 1111 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 1: So there you. Uh, that'll do it, I guess um. 1112 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,239 Speaker 1: And our podcast next week we'll have to do it 1113 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:11,320 Speaker 1: from Tennessee. We'll be in Tennessee probably on Wednesday. Wednesday 1114 00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:13,840 Speaker 1: in Tennessee, I think we're gonna be traveling Tuesday, so 1115 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:15,680 Speaker 1: maybe we should do it from one of those what 1116 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:17,360 Speaker 1: do they call though, Danny, you're on one. What are 1117 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:20,640 Speaker 1: those those mobile party buses that go around Lower Broadway? 1118 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,040 Speaker 1: What do you call those things? We'll do it. We 1119 00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:25,120 Speaker 1: should do a podcast on the back of one of those. 1120 00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to tell it was not a party bus. 1121 00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:27,920 Speaker 1: And if I tell you guys what it was, you 1122 00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:34,239 Speaker 1: you're just only at this point rue. I was not 1123 00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:36,120 Speaker 1: the maid of honor, so I did not book a 1124 00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:39,479 Speaker 1: single thing in this bachelotte party. It is a kind 1125 00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:45,880 Speaker 1: where it's basically an open tractor, oh, with lots of alcohol. 1126 00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:49,279 Speaker 1: It's an open tractor that you're standing on in the 1127 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:52,200 Speaker 1: back and someone's driving in the front. I didn't say 1128 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,680 Speaker 1: you were driving it, so it was a party? John 1129 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:59,360 Speaker 1: Deer is that essentially it was pretty close? All right? 1130 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:02,920 Speaker 1: There you go. That'll do it.
