As 16 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 5: we said, good morning here on the Cardinals Red Zero Report, 17 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 5: presented by Seek Your Ticket to Great Seats, talking about 18 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 5: a thirty four to twenty loss to the Cincinnati Bengals 19 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 5: on Sunday at State Farm Stadium, a game that was 20 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,479 Speaker 5: close going into the fourth quarter of the Cardinals within 21 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 5: one score twenty four to twenty, but unfortunately, the Bengals 22 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 5: scored the game's final ten points and walked away with 23 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 5: the win, and the Cardinals are now one and four. Kyle, 24 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 5: your big takeaways from that game Obviously what Joe Burrow 25 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 5: was able to do, Jamar Chase able to do, and 26 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 5: the mobility of a Joe Burrow that we had not 27 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 5: seen through the first four games of the regular season. 28 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 3: Wire. 29 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 5: But more than that, what you saw out of those 30 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 5: four quarters. 31 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, a lot of things, right, I wish it's just timing. 32 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 6: Joe Burray was just a matter of time until he 33 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 6: got rolling, and he came out firing early, and it 34 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 6: was pretty obvious that he was that he was going 35 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 6: to go to Jamar Chase after, you know him talking 36 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 6: about always being open and seeming frustrated and not happy 37 00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 6: with how things have gone. 38 00:01:59,720 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 4: You know. 39 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 6: It's that's the hard part about that game, and I 40 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 6: know Jonathan Gannon talked about it. We're gonna get to 41 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 6: it later. But I think the defense did a good 42 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 6: job against Joe Mixon, who can also wreck a game. 43 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 6: T Higgins was out, so you knew that they were 44 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 6: gonna target Jamar Chase and they they certainly did Joe Burrow, 45 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 6: you know, where he looked like he could barely move 46 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 6: through four games, moved around in the pocket well, even 47 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 6: scrambled a couple of times. So he's on his way back, 48 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 6: and unfortunately we just caught him a week too late, 49 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 6: you know. But you know, for the most part, just 50 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 6: watching the game and then rewatching it again, it didn't 51 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 6: feel like both offensively and defensively, the energy the execution 52 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 6: was quite the same as it had been. You know, 53 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 6: Josh Dobbs, while he did some really good things in 54 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 6: this game, some sometimes the ball fluttered out of his 55 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 6: hands a bit. He was a little bit late with 56 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 6: some of his throws. 57 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 4: I know, he's. 58 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 6: Taken responsibility for the turnovers. I don't necessarily think that 59 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 6: the turnovers were on him. There were some other things 60 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 6: going on around him that that played a factor in it. 61 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 6: But it just wasn't a clean game, and you know, 62 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 6: it just felt like some of the energy was sucked 63 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 6: out of the team when when James Connor went down 64 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 6: and wasn't on the field. He's just such a big factor, 65 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 6: not only with his production but just the energy that 66 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 6: he brings to this team. So you know, it was 67 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 6: it looks in the NFL. In today's NFL, fourteen points, 68 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 6: looks like you've got beat pretty bad. But with the 69 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 6: exception of you know, going immediately into the half and 70 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 6: coming out of the half, if they don't give up 71 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 6: those two plays, you know, this Cardinals team is still 72 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 6: playing with a team and a Joe Burrow that. 73 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 4: Was was lighting them up and looked. 74 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 6: Like he was on and so you know, it's it's 75 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 6: not like you walk away and all is lost. But 76 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 6: at the same time, there's still a lot of work 77 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 6: to do. 78 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 5: More than three hundred passing yards for Joe Burrow, almost 79 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 5: two hundred of which went to Jamar Chase, Cardinals turned 80 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 5: the ball over three times plus a turnover on downs, 81 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 5: and then you look what Kyle brought up Paul. As 82 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 5: far as the injury to James Connor, lost in that 83 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 5: second quarter after a thirty five yard run, you lose 84 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 5: Jalen Thompson at halftime, he didn't play at all in 85 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 5: the second half, and then word this morning, according to 86 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 5: ESPN's Adam Schefter, Connor is expected to miss quote several weeks. Now, 87 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 5: what does that mean? Does that mean that stinted on 88 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 5: the IR is possibility or is it just going to 89 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 5: be a matter of a week or two. 90 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 7: It means you're now without the heart beat of the offense, 91 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 7: just like you've been without the heart beat of the 92 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 7: defense in Buddha Baker. 93 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 3: That's how valuable he is. 94 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 7: You have a two time Pro Bowl running back, a 95 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 7: guy who never goes down on first contact, a guy 96 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 7: who's second in the NFL and twenty plus yard runs, 97 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 7: he's top five and yards per carry. 98 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 3: He's irreplaceable. 99 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 7: You haven't no one with anywhere close of a resume 100 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 7: to with James Connor in that running back room. You 101 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,679 Speaker 7: love the effort Mari de Mercado. He had the eleven 102 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 7: yard touchdown run, but he's not gonna cram it vertical 103 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 7: like a James Connor. He's not going to command and 104 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 7: the attention from a defense on the play action. They're 105 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 7: not going to bite with the same intensity. You know 106 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 7: the fourth and one at the sixteen where Josh Dobbs 107 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 7: was gobbled up, Well, guess what if James Connor's out there, 108 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 7: Either A the ball goes to him or B there's 109 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 7: a play action fake to him and the odds of 110 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 7: him achieving that first down go up dramatically. So everything 111 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 7: that Kyle just said about that, including the loss of 112 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 7: James Connor, and then when you lose the battle going 113 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 7: into halftime and coming out of halftime. We know how 114 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 7: critical that is and that was decisive in this game. 115 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,799 Speaker 7: The pick six and then you give up the sixty 116 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 7: three yard strike on the third play of the third quarter, 117 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 7: combined with a slow start that Josh Dobbs cited right, 118 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 7: combined with a slow start, and then a fourth quarter 119 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 7: which has been a persistent problem for this Cardinals team, 120 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 7: trying to execute it in the fourth quarter and losing 121 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 7: that battle on the scoreboard, well, it all adds up 122 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 7: to an l. 123 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 5: Cardinals have been outscored in the final fifteen minutes fifty 124 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 5: four to seven. And we'll get more into the loss 125 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 5: of James Connor as we continue here on Cardinals Redzeat 126 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 5: Report presented by see Gor Ticket the Great Seats. But 127 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 5: through five games head coach Jonathan Gannon his first five 128 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 5: games as a head coach, the record not where he 129 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 5: wants it to be. It is one and four. What 130 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 5: else does he want to see? What this team moving forward? 131 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 8: What I'm looking for is consistently doing what your coach 132 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 8: to do. That starts on coaching first, to make sure 133 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 8: we're doing that throughout the week, and then on game day. 134 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 8: You know, like I say all the time, you know, 135 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 8: there's sixty five snaps in a ball game or whatever 136 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 8: it is, sixty of them if you're right, five if 137 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 8: you're not. 138 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 4: If the ball. 139 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 8: Finds you when you're not, you know, then they make 140 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 8: some plays. So just being on all those things consistently 141 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 8: is I think we take a jump here coming up. 142 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 5: Gannon postgame took a lot of the responsibility, which I'm 143 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 5: sure all of the players in that locker room appreciate. 144 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 5: It is about as visibly upset I've seen Gannon since 145 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 5: he's been here with the Arizona Cardinals. But again, this 146 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 5: Cardinals team expectations going in versus what this team now 147 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 5: is after five games at one and four. But as 148 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 5: I mentioned, going into that fourth quarter a one score 149 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 5: ball game, Gannon talking about where this team is at 150 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 5: as far as a competitive this with this squad. 151 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 8: I mean, we're in the game. You know, you had 152 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 8: a chance to win the game in my opinion, you know, 153 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 8: and they made a couple more plays than we did. 154 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 8: But our guys fight. We're competitive right now and every 155 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 8: game we're playing. We gotta start winning some games, you know, 156 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 8: and so we talked about that, how do we do that? 157 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 8: So we laid out a blueprint for him and go 158 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:35,679 Speaker 8: back to work this week. 159 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 5: Competitive certainly is what you always want to see, Kyle, 160 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 5: but at the end, it is a results based business 161 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 5: and you want to be able to see those wins 162 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 5: because of the work that you put in during the 163 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 5: week and that buy in that those players have. Okay, 164 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 5: then we're on board, but is it going to be 165 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 5: successful that week that Sunday. 166 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know it's playing well. 167 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 6: It was a common refrain up to this point and 168 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 6: it was something that can kind of hang your hat on. 169 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 6: But you know, at some point we've got to get 170 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 6: a win. We've got to get a win this week 171 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 6: against the Rams. You got to get that payoff. And 172 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 6: you know, to me, you know one area of this 173 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 6: team lacks and you and Paul both brought it up. 174 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 6: You know, execution in the fourth quarter win. There's two 175 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 6: situations where it's vitally important going into half and and 176 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,119 Speaker 6: to finish the game. You know, this team is last 177 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 6: and fourth quarter points. You're thirty first in fourth quarter defense, 178 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 6: Your last and fourth quarter time of possession. I mean, 179 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 6: that's when you've got to really execute, and that you know, 180 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 6: reared its ugly head in this game when we gave 181 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 6: up a fifteen play eighty three yard drive in the 182 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 6: fourth quarter, and when we're on offense, we give up 183 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 6: a sax trip and then the very next snap on 184 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 6: offense we give up another sack that kills the next drive. 185 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 6: You know that you've you've got to be able to 186 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 6: execute when the game is on the line, and then 187 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 6: saying that, you know, it's something that I saw at 188 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 6: coaching clink this year. I heard Michael Lombardi talk and 189 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 6: Bill Belichick studies the middle eight and how vitally important 190 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 6: the middle eight is the four minutes going into a 191 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 6: half to four minutes coming. 192 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 4: Out of half. 193 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 6: And to give up that pick six and then give 194 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 6: up a long touchdown on the third play, that was 195 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 6: the fourteen points. That was the difference in the game. 196 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 6: And you know, I understand trying to be aggressive. It 197 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 6: worked against the Niners with the fake punt on your 198 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 6: own twenty, but throwing out of your own end zone, 199 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 6: it's risky. A lot of bad things can happen, and 200 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 6: it was, you know, in that situation You've got a 201 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 6: punter that was punting the laces off the ball up 202 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 6: to that point. So if you can just pick up 203 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 6: three or four yards and punt when you're backed up 204 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 6: that far, that is a win. In particularly in that 205 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 6: moment of the game. 206 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 5: Goes back to play call versus play execution, because there 207 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 5: was the play. 208 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 4: It was there. 209 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 5: It was going to Hollywood Brown, he was open, he 210 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 5: had a step and a half on the defender. Zach Pasco, though, 211 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 5: got in the way, and all of a sudden it's 212 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 5: going the other way for the Bengals. And now, to 213 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 5: Kyle's point, you're going into the locker room instead of 214 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 5: with the lead, you're trailing by three. 215 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 7: It's also the risk reward though, at that moment, with 216 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 7: ninety seconds to go in the half, you punt it 217 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 7: away at the worst and then you play some defense 218 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 7: and maybe you take that fourteen to ten lead into halftime. 219 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 7: Remember you got down ten nothing, you came back with 220 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 7: two touchdown drives. Zach Ert scores right, he takes it out. 221 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 7: The exit velocity on that spike was something to behold. Okay, 222 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 7: the momentums in your favor, So at that moment, if 223 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 7: you're thinking this is going to be a bit of 224 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 7: a slug fest against the Bengals were without James Connor. 225 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 7: Let's play it safe. At that point, Cardinals did not 226 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 7: I get it. Zach Pascal from all indications, was in 227 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 7: the wrong spot at the wrong time and got in 228 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 7: the passing lane and then bad things happen. 229 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 4: Instead of ending. 230 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 7: Up with a target to Highlywood Brown, the ball gets 231 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 7: tipped up into the air, gets picked off, and then boom. 232 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 7: So it's the risk reward of where you were in 233 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 7: you know at that point, especially the week before when 234 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 7: had the ninety nine and a half yard drive, and 235 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 7: what did you do to start that drive? You played 236 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 7: a pretty dang conservative If you had the run game, 237 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 7: you put the plow down. And so at that point, yes, 238 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 7: it was critical and you could feel some of the 239 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 7: year come out of the building. 240 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 5: A lot of blame to go around. Josh Wood, speaking 241 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 5: to the media on Monday, says, it starts with everyone 242 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 5: looking at themselves first. 243 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 9: Everybody has to look themselves in the mirror. But more 244 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 9: than anything, let just be honest with yourself. Take away 245 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 9: what you came from it. But it's nothing we can 246 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 9: do now, you know, It's on to next week. Continue 247 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 9: to do what we've been doing. We've been in every 248 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 9: game that we played. Continue to trust the process. Really 249 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 9: just continue to have like a positive mindset, stand together 250 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 9: figuring out what it is exactly that each person can 251 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 9: do individually in order to, you know, get the outcome 252 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 9: that we all want. 253 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 5: Very interested to see what the response is from this 254 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 5: team next week in LA when they take on the Rams. Now, 255 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,959 Speaker 5: this team, to Paul's point, has trailed not only on Sunday, 256 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 5: but the previous week. Against the forty nine ers they 257 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 5: got down fourteen to nothing, made it competitive, but against 258 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 5: the Bengals down ten nothing, took the lead. Hard to 259 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 5: play from behind though, when you certainly lack the talent 260 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 5: and then you're not securing in the football. 261 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 4: No, that's exactly right. 262 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 6: But you know, the one of the good things, there 263 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 6: are several good things to take away from this game. 264 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 6: I mean again, not all is lost. Right when this 265 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 6: team has some problems on the field, when there's some 266 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 6: glaring weaknesses or there's some glaring mistakes, they'd get it 267 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 6: fixed throughout the week. There was two penalties in this game. 268 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 6: This team was heavily penalized and it costs them coming 269 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 6: into this game. This was a very clean game from 270 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 6: that standpoint. They did not do things pre snap to 271 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 6: beat themselves or even post snap to beat themselves with 272 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 6: the penalties. Mistackles, while there was a handful of them, 273 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 6: for the most part, Jamar Chase would catch it and 274 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 6: he would go down pretty immediately, with the exception of 275 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 6: the long pass, which was not a mistackle. Perhaps a 276 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 6: bad angle or a busted coverage, but not mistackles. So 277 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 6: you've got probably our two biggest concerns in the week 278 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 6: before those were fixed. So you know, you can feel 279 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 6: confident that you know again, one of the things I 280 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 6: love to hear is just not only accountability from the 281 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 6: players saying everybody's got to take a role in this. 282 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 6: Everybody's got to fix it immediately after every single game. 283 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,079 Speaker 6: Jonathan Gannon says, we need to coach better. Look, players 284 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 6: made mistakes, but that's on the coaches to make sure 285 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 6: they get it fixed. And so you can be sure 286 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,839 Speaker 6: that throughout this practice week they're gonna look at what 287 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 6: the problems were, address them throughout you know, practice, through 288 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 6: individual through team periods and get them fixed and then 289 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 6: it will look much better against the Rams. 290 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,319 Speaker 7: And you saw accountability with some of the lineup changes, right, 291 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 7: and Antonio Hamilton who had played, Yeah, I think you 292 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 7: counted them up ten snaps in the first four games 293 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:33,559 Speaker 7: combined Craig and he played sixty six snaps. So there's accountability. 294 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 7: You have to answer for your performance. And if a 295 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 7: Joe Burrow comes out and goes thirty six of forty 296 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 7: six and you have Jamar Chase with fifteen catches, how 297 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 7: many times did he have ten plus yards of cushion? 298 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 7: And it was just pitch and catch. Yes, there was 299 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 7: a sixty three yard strike. I think the next biggest 300 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 7: pass play was nineteen yards and everything else was dink 301 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 7: and dunk. It was just taking what the Cardinals defense 302 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 7: literally gave the Bengals. And maybe that's some of what 303 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 7: Jonathan Gannon was referring to, just the approach to Jamar Chase. 304 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 7: No t Higgins, where was some of the press man 305 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 7: with a bracket over the top. 306 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,319 Speaker 5: One explosive pass play by the Bengals and it was 307 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 5: that sixty three yard touchdown. Just two passing plays of 308 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 5: longer than fifteen yards. On Sunday, more on what the 309 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 5: Bengals offense was able to do against that Cardinals defense. 310 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 5: As we continue here on the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network. 311 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 2: Snap to Burrough, quick set, flushed out of the pocket, 312 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 2: moving to his right, looks back to the left. Got 313 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 2: a receiver open in the end zone and it's caught 314 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 2: for a touchdown by Jamar Chase. 315 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 3: Snap to Burrow. It's play action. 316 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:43,119 Speaker 2: Burrow backs up, has time, unloads deep ballfire side. 317 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 3: Got Chase and it's caught. 318 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 4: At the five and end of the end zone. 319 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 3: Touchdown flushed out. 320 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 2: Moving to his right, looking fires middle of the end zone, Chase, 321 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 2: touchdown back of the end zone. 322 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 3: Third touchdown patch for Chase. 323 00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 5: And those three touchdowns tying a career high. Also Chase 324 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 5: a season high one hundred and ninety two receiving yards 325 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 5: on a single franchise game record fifteen receptions. He basically 326 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 5: beat the Cardinals by himself thirty four to twenty the finals. 327 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 5: We say welcome back here on the Arizona Cardinals Red 328 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 5: Sea Report presented by Seekik. Your ticket to great seats. 329 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 5: You hear Dave Pash on the play by play. Paul, 330 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 5: you were in the booth on Sunday and there was 331 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 5: a lot of room for Jamar Chase against the Cardinals. 332 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 7: Defense in the Cincinnati Twitter account throughout have a day 333 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 7: d e y because that's their whole mantra, right, the 334 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 7: fan chant who day Well, Jamar Chase was the man, 335 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 7: There's no doubt about it, especially after he also said 336 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 7: I'm always bleeping open the week before and they tweeted 337 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 7: out before and after and they put the word facts 338 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 7: on there like the kids say so. Yes he lived 339 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 7: up to his proclamation, and yes he was a problem. 340 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 7: I think the question becomes, all, right, to what degree 341 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 7: Jonathan Gannon's comment, you can't let their best player beat 342 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 7: you and that's what we just did, quote end quote, 343 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 7: and he used the po word. That's exactly what Jonathan 344 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 7: Gannon said. He was about the performance of Jamar Chase. 345 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 7: How much of it was the all Pro receiver and 346 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 7: how much did the Cardinals defense enable him allow him 347 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 7: to get off with all those catches. Look, Terry mclaurran 348 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 7: didn't wreck the game. Ceedee Lamb didn't wreck the game. 349 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 7: Those were two games that the Cardinals went against legit 350 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 7: number one receivers in this league. So whatever they did 351 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 7: defensively in Week one and three obviously was lacking in 352 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 7: Week five. And I'm curious, okay, going forward, against the 353 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 7: Cooper Cup. Now are you all in? And by all in, 354 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 7: I mean is it double coverage on a Cooper Cup? 355 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 7: And then you take your chances with some other guys 356 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 7: who are let's just say unproven. There's potential in a 357 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 7: two to two at well and obviously a Puka Nakouha, 358 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 7: and they put up some numbers so far this year. 359 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 7: But there's a Cooper Cup who's a twenty twenty one 360 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 7: NFL Offensive Player of the Year, and I'm curious if 361 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 7: they devote attention to him defensively based on what he's 362 00:16:59,360 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 7: done in the past. 363 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 5: Great players are going to have great games, and yeah, 364 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 5: Chase is young, but he has been outstanding so far 365 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 5: in his brief NFL career. You would just like to 366 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 5: see it Kyle be a little bit more difficult for 367 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 5: him to amass those one hundred and ninety two receiving yards. 368 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 6: Absolutely, you know that to me just watching, you know, 369 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 6: and you know, not sitting in meeting rooms not knowing 370 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 6: what the game plan was. You've got, up to this point, 371 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 6: an immobile quarterback, a quarterback that potentially anytime he takes off, 372 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 6: could have another calf injury. You want to take away 373 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 6: his quick answers. You want to take away where he's 374 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 6: looking first. He's he was always looking to jamar chase first, 375 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 6: and every time he caught it, you know, to Paully's point, 376 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 6: it's not like he was working the ball down the field, 377 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 6: but to give him that much cushion was a little concerning. 378 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 6: And you want to at some point throughout the game, 379 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 6: get somebody up on him, make him work for his yardage, 380 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 6: make him work to get off the line of scrimmage, 381 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 6: try to be physical with him and jam him, and 382 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 6: then have somebody over the top for when he does 383 00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 6: get off of that jam. But it didn't seem like 384 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 6: we saw that. We didn't see somebody up pressed on him, 385 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 6: making him you know, screwing up the timing a little bit. 386 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 6: And it was just, you know, it felt like particularly 387 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 6: early in this game, and really, I guess throughout the 388 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 6: course of the game it just pitch and catch. We'll 389 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 6: pick up eight yards here, we'll pick up another nine, 390 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 6: and just keep the chains moving. 391 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 4: And you know. 392 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 6: They that never stopped throughout the course of the ball game. 393 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 6: It just seemed like it was easy for them. 394 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 5: Let's hear from head coach Jonathan Gannon the quote that 395 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 5: Paul referenced earlier. Well, let's hear from the man himself, 396 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 5: who was none too pleased after the Sunday's game. 397 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 8: He caught a lot of balls today for a lot 398 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 8: of yards and a lot of touchdowns. So obviously, as 399 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 8: a defensive staff, myself being the leader of that, we 400 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 8: didn't do it enough on that side. You can't let 401 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 8: their best player beat you, and that's what we just did. 402 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 8: So that falls solely on me, and we can't let 403 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 8: that happen again. Point blank. There's the game on defense, 404 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 8: you'd let their best player beat you. I'm pissed off 405 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,959 Speaker 8: about it. It's my fault and we got to get 406 00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:58,880 Speaker 8: that cleaned up now. 407 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 5: Again, we did not know what the strategy the game 408 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 5: plan was going in. Was it to allow Cooper not 409 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 5: Cooper Cup, to allow Jamar Chase to get the ball 410 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 5: and then make the Bengals work. You look at the 411 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 5: touchdown drives first one eleven plays, then the field goal 412 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 5: drive eight plays, then there was the fifteen play drive 413 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter. Make it so you have those 414 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 5: extended drives. The more plays, the more likely the offense 415 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 5: is going to make a mistake. It's just Burrow didn't 416 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 5: make any mistakes. 417 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 7: And you know what, Joe Burrow was totally different than 418 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 7: what he had put on film the first four weeks. 419 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 7: It's Joe Burrow that was very immobile. Tennessee the week 420 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,479 Speaker 7: before just blitzed them with impunity. They had three sacks, 421 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,199 Speaker 7: they had three hundred quarterback hits. He admitted after the 422 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 7: game he couldn't run for first downs. I don't know 423 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 7: what happened in terms of an epiphany to that calf 424 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 7: somewhere midweek, because he obviously was sandbagging when he told 425 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 7: the media Wednesday Thursday that I'm just not able to 426 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 7: pick up those first downs with my feet like I 427 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 7: used to. Well, there he was late third quarter, first 428 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 7: to ten, running eleven or twelve yards picking up a 429 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 7: first down, and then the Cincinnati Twitter account sending out, 430 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 7: quote Joe Wheels, you saw in the final touchdown pass 431 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 7: he was able to buy time and extend the play. 432 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 7: So maybe that was something that Cardinals didn't expect. But 433 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 7: it's also a Cardinals team that's made plenty of in 434 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 7: game adjustments and they'll start doing it in the first quarter, 435 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 7: and so it was a little perplexing. It was confounding 436 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 7: as to why it just kept happening with Jamar Chase. 437 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 3: I get it. 438 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,479 Speaker 7: I mean in hindsight, and Antonio Hamilton at Kyle's point 439 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 7: is bigger, more physical. You know what about Antonio Hamilton 440 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,679 Speaker 7: at the line of scrimmage against the Jamar Chase with 441 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 7: some help over the top, You know, he just waited 442 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 7: for a change to come over the course of the game, 443 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 7: and seemingly, you watched the film, I didn't see much 444 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 7: differently being done from the first quarter to the fourth quarter. 445 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,239 Speaker 6: Right, And what was what is since Joe Burrow has 446 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 6: been in Cincinnati, what has been the Bengals' biggest weakness. 447 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 6: It's their protection, It's their offensive line. So you've got 448 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 6: to take away the quick answers, make him, you know, 449 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 6: give your pass rusher is an opportunity. And you know, 450 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 6: for the most part, the pass rush was pretty inconsistent 451 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 6: in this game. They did a couple of times throughout 452 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 6: the game, get some pressure, get some hits, but it 453 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 6: wasn't a constant pressure. The pocket wasn't collapsing on him. 454 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 6: One of the big stories coming into the game was 455 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 6: how everything was dink and dunk with this offense, and 456 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 6: the ball was coming out quickly. Well, he held the 457 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 6: ball longer this game than he had any of the 458 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 6: four previous games. And so you've got to do things 459 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 6: again to take away the quick answer, which is obviously 460 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 6: Jamar Chase and make this offensive line have to protect 461 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 6: longer than they're used to or longer than they're able to. 462 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 7: And you know what, I went through the locker room 463 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 7: during the game week because Tyler Boyd after the loss 464 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 7: to Tennessee and it was so one sided and the 465 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 7: Titans got home so often on the blitz, Tyler Boyd said, well, 466 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 7: we're getting blitzed all out all the time. If I 467 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 7: was a DC, I'd do the same thing, referring to 468 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 7: the injury to Joe Burrow. So I went around the 469 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,119 Speaker 7: locker room Jeeves Dan blitz John Burrow all game because 470 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 7: that's not the Cardinals DNA. They had the lowest blitz 471 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 7: rating league coming in, and a couple of guys told me, well, 472 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 7: you can bring numbers, but beware because he's experienced enough 473 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 7: and he's accomplished enough as the highest paid player in 474 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 7: the NFL that you might end up like the Tom 475 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 7: Brady game last year, where the Cardinals brought the blitz 476 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 7: a lot. And what did Tom Brady do thank you, 477 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 7: because he can just read and diagnose the defense and 478 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 7: delivered immediately. Kurt Warner in his later years used to welcome, 479 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 7: used to beg teams to blitz him because he would 480 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,479 Speaker 7: always find the open guy. And seemingly when the Cardinals 481 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 7: did blitz, they only got home once on one blitz 482 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 7: and all of the times Joe Burrow is like, Okay, 483 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 7: you're bringing numbers. I'm gonna find the open man. 484 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:31,920 Speaker 5: And if you don't bring the numbers, then you have 485 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 5: Burrow standing in the pocket. And I don't care how 486 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 5: good of a defensive back you are, you cannot cover 487 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 5: an NFL wide receiver for a very long time. So, yeah, 488 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 5: what do you do when the head coach and the 489 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 5: defensive coordinator have shown that they are not going to blitz. 490 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 5: It's not something to Paul's words, their DNA. They don't 491 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 5: like to. But because this secondary Kyle doesn't really have 492 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 5: that number one shut down corner, do you have to 493 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 5: do something different to make up for the fact that 494 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 5: you lack talent in that secondary. 495 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 6: I think you do, and it just needs to be 496 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 6: well timed. Look, you don't need to blitz twenty times 497 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 6: a game, but you need to mix it up. You 498 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 6: need to give them different looks, you need to bring 499 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:14,239 Speaker 6: guys from different angles just to at least get you know, 500 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 6: I always used to welcome the blitz, even though I 501 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 6: played on really good four man fronts. But when you 502 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 6: add a guy to the front and he's on the blitz, 503 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 6: you get one on ones across the board. That gives 504 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 6: your pass rushers an opportunity to get there as well. 505 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 6: So it just it didn't seem like they were putting 506 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 6: him under enough to rest. And sometimes it doesn't get home, 507 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 6: but at the very least you're putting in the back 508 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 6: of his head. Hey, they could be coming from any angle, 509 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 6: any direction. I don't know who's coming, but you know, 510 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 6: the way our DB's were playing kind of that soft coverage, 511 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 6: it was pretty apparent pre snap that nobody was coming 512 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 6: on a blitz unless it was a linebacker. So yeah, 513 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 6: I mean, it would just been nice to mix it 514 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 6: up a little bit, sprinkle in a few blitzes, try 515 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 6: to heat it up a little bit and get some 516 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 6: more hits on Joe Burrow throughout the course of this game. 517 00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 7: And here's the other thing we cited during the game 518 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 7: was that Jonathan Gannon told us on his TV show, 519 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 7: Zach Taylor, maybe the thing he does best is he's 520 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 7: really creative getting his playmakers into space in different ways. 521 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 7: And you saw Jamar Chase in different formations. A lot 522 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 7: of times he was in that trip's formation, three receivers 523 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 7: to one side or the other. He was the inside guy, 524 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 7: and so the other two receivers would run interference and 525 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 7: they would create room for a Jamar Chase, who then 526 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 7: would make the first man miss a lot. And that's 527 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 7: all they needed, quick throw and catch and then he 528 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 7: was his yards after the catch. 529 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 5: Whatever the Cardinals defense has been doing these past two weeks, 530 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 5: they need to figure out a different plan because between 531 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 5: Brock Party and Joe Burrow fifty six of sixty seven, 532 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 5: that's almost eighty four percent, six hundred receiving yards and 533 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 5: the Cardinals defense just one pass defense and that was 534 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 5: against the Bengals on Sunday. The Cardinals offense against the Bengals, 535 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 5: we'll touch on that next here on the Arizona Cardinals 536 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:52,679 Speaker 5: Radio network. 537 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:58,879 Speaker 3: Third and nine to the Cardinals, they go empty. 538 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 2: Tops in the gun from the twenty five were receivers 539 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 2: right to left snapped, the Dobbs drops. 540 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 3: Back, loves it deep right side pass on the money, 541 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 3: caught at the five, get into the end zone for 542 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 3: the touchdown. Hollywood Brown got by the DV. You could 543 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 3: not throw it any better then Josh. 544 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 2: Dob did right there and the Cardinals are on the board. 545 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 3: He dropped it right in the bucket, right in stride. 546 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 7: It fell right into the arms of Hollywood Brown and 547 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 7: he was able to finish. 548 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 3: And then he took it right into the Red Sea 549 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 3: and he leaped up into the crowd. 550 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 5: We that voice sounds familiar as we say, welcome back 551 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 5: to the Cardinals Red Seat report presented by Seat get 552 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 5: your ticket to great Seats. A beautiful play call and yes, 553 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,199 Speaker 5: the analysis from our very own Paul Calvic. 554 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 7: I had the requisite seventeen cups of coffee. I was 555 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 7: doing my best ron wolfully up there nowhere close. I 556 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 7: was just bolstering Wolfe's job security, making everyone appreciate what 557 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,880 Speaker 7: they didn't have on game day there. In fact, pass 558 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 7: really didn't need me. The Maestro himself could have carried 559 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 7: the entire thing. But I figured I'd give him a 560 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 7: blow here and there and let him catch his breath. 561 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 5: A thing of beauty, not only watching it live, but 562 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 5: listening to it with Patch and Calvic and then there 563 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 5: is a brand new view of that play. Azycardinals dot 564 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 5: Com on their social media channels just released the overhead 565 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 5: look of the pass and the catch, which is spectacular 566 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 5: because Kyle, you could not have put that ball in 567 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 5: any better location for Hollywood Brown to catch it and 568 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 5: catch it in stride. 569 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was a great throw, great catch. 570 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 6: You know, sometimes, well oftentimes josh Dobbs throws a really 571 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 6: nice ball and that that was one of those times 572 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 6: he put it in in the best spot possible. Hollywood 573 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 6: Brown caught it in stride. You know, quietly, Hollywood is 574 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 6: having a good season. I mean, his numbers don't jump 575 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 6: off the page with four catches, but you know, typically 576 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 6: he's dangerous with the ball in his hands, makes the 577 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 6: first guy miss. He had a short pass in the 578 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 6: fourth quarter where he made like two guys miss and 579 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 6: picked up the first down. He's he's really doing well, 580 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 6: and you know the concern, I know, we're probably gona 581 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 6: talk about this again. One of the things Joshua Dobbs 582 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 6: has done up to this point is his best throws 583 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 6: are on play action pass. Now, what is that gonna 584 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 6: look like? Without James Connor, will they have those opportunities 585 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 6: in the play action pass game without your thumper, without 586 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 6: your guy that you're leaning on to get those big yardage. 587 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 6: And again, you know it's not just James Connor with 588 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 6: his you know, pretty standard four or five yard runs 589 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 6: where he makes a guy miss or runs through an 590 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 6: arm tackle. His thirty five yard run in this game, 591 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 6: and I know Paul talked about it, it should have 592 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:35,880 Speaker 6: been attackle for loss. 593 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 7: It was an. 594 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 6: Incredible individual play because it was not blocked well up front. 595 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 6: And that's what James Connor can give you, and that's 596 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 6: what's gonna be hard to replace in this offense. 597 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 5: The number one play action team going in to that 598 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 5: game against the Bengals, but you lose a James Connor, who, 599 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 5: according to reports, might miss several weeks with that knee injury. 600 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 5: Keyonta Ingram has missed the pass two games with a 601 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 5: neck injury. Cardinals did claim to Jones junior off waivers 602 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 5: from the Saints, a bigger back than in Keyonta Ingram 603 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 5: five to eleven to twenty four played earlier this season, 604 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 5: so he comes in having had a training camp plus 605 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:14,439 Speaker 5: several games seventy carries seventy yards on twenty one carries 606 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,919 Speaker 5: plus two touchdowns, and it does Paul reunite him with 607 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 5: his running backs coach at Notre Dame. Octrey Denson was 608 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,919 Speaker 5: the Notre Dame running backs coach from twenty sixteen to 609 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 5: twenty eighteen when Jones, when James was there. 610 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 7: Well that's interesting stuff. And you know what, Look, you 611 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 7: got a Rams defensive line that other than Aaron Donald 612 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 7: has a lot of nobody's and if there's one an 613 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 7: adult to Aaron Donald, it's usually run right out number 614 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 7: ninety nine. And so, okay, you just can't give up 615 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 7: on the run game. You're top ten and so many metrics, 616 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,479 Speaker 7: and I get it James Conner. No one has more 617 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 7: of an appreciation for James Conner than yours, truly, But 618 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 7: you just can't give up because, honestly, guys, if you 619 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 7: look at the position groups on this team, O line 620 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 7: is one of your strengths. You gotta and knock on wood. 621 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 7: You're still healthy up, so you got to come up. 622 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 7: You gotta stay balanced, You got to emphasize the run 623 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 7: game even a little bit more. Keyanty Ingram if he's 624 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 7: back this week, I think that's a big deal because 625 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 7: he is a big back and if he feels right 626 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 7: and he does have all of his abilities, he is 627 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 7: someone who can stoke it between the tackles and if 628 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 7: you get him into a rhythm, and if not, maybe 629 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 7: a Corey Clement, who in that last game against Minnesota 630 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 7: in the preseason, he was running hard with thank his 631 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 7: job on the line. He's done it before. He has 632 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 7: a proven track record, So we'll see. There's no James 633 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 7: Connor sitting in that running back room, but I think 634 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 7: you still have some physical guys who can keep the 635 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 7: defense honest. 636 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 5: Need to be able to keep possession of the football 637 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 5: as well. The Cardinals three turnovers plus turnover on downs. 638 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 5: They ran twenty two fewer plays than the Bengals. Joshua 639 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 5: Dobbs postgame, putting the onus on him as far as 640 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 5: those turnovers were concerned. 641 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 10: Turnovers are tough. We take pride and taking care of 642 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 10: the football, and you know both of those are on me, 643 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 10: you know, especially you know you're about to go into 644 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 10: the half with the lead in that area of the field, 645 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 10: right like, I got to be extremely smart and take 646 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 10: care of the football. 647 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 5: First time all season. The Cardinals did not finish in 648 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 5: the positive category. As far as turnover margin is concerned, 649 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 5: they were a minus two against the Bengals, and again, 650 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 5: you've got to be able to protect the football. You 651 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 5: have that football in order to score points. You're that'scing 652 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 5: points you're not going to win. Head coach Jonathan Gannon 653 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 5: on the turnover battle, What. 654 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 8: Do we lose the takeaway ballet three to one? You know, 655 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 8: it's just a hard way to go. You know, we 656 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 8: got to do a better job execution wise protecting the football. 657 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 8: That's all eleven and we got to get that cleaned 658 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 8: up because if you're losing the takeaway battle, our guys 659 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 8: know that's a winning stat and you're not gonna win 660 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 8: a lot of games. 661 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 5: It goes back, Kyle to what we were talking about. 662 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 5: This team right now as it's currently constructed, does not 663 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 5: have the talent, small margin of error. They don't have 664 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 5: to play perfect football, but you can't be coughing it 665 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 5: up three times and then losing the ball on downs 666 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 5: against a Bengals team as struggled as they struggled earlier 667 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 5: this season, still very talented, having come off back to 668 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 5: back AFC Championship title game appearances. 669 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 6: No, you're exactly right. And again, this is one of 670 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 6: the things I expect them to address and fix right 671 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 6: because to your point, with this team, when they're playing well, 672 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 6: their margin of air is small. You cannot lose a 673 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 6: turnover battle. You cannot be two of seven on fourth down. 674 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 6: I mean, those are important possessions and typically you know, 675 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 6: it's a momentum killer for your offense and they're all 676 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 6: charged up, you know. But again, the things that we've 677 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 6: seen with this team, the things that kept popping up 678 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 6: through four games, the penalties and mistackles, things like that, 679 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 6: those got cleaned up, so you know, and that's one 680 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 6: of the things that coach Gannon emphasizes every week is 681 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 6: the turnovers. You know, I appreciate and I talked about 682 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 6: this with the coaches earlier and the players. I appreciate 683 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 6: the accountability by Joshua Dobbs. It doesn't appear that, you know, 684 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 6: the three turnovers were all his fault. The sax trip 685 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 6: that's that was on DJ Humphries. He's got to be 686 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 6: able to get that block. It was the one pass 687 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 6: rusher that won on that. It wasn't like he had 688 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 6: a bunch of guys in his face. It wasn't an 689 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 6: issue with ball security. When someone hits you from the 690 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 6: blind side, you cannot help that. The last interception you 691 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 6: got to take a chance, he got to try to 692 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 6: fit it into a tight window. Was fourth down anyways, 693 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 6: and he let it go and it got tipped up 694 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 6: in the air, and that was an interception. And then 695 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 6: again something was just a miss, whether it be communication, 696 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 6: whether it be a bust, whether you know you've got 697 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 6: two receivers within five yards of each other, that's that's 698 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 6: not how offenses are designed. So you know, he I 699 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 6: love how accountable he is. I love that he's going 700 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 6: to stand there and take that for the team or 701 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 6: for his teammates. 702 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 4: But you know, there was a. 703 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 6: Multiple, multiple factors in all those turnovers, and I'm not 704 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 6: really sure that Joshua Dobbs was that fault for any 705 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 6: of them. 706 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 7: I'll tell you this much. Though you look at that 707 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 7: Rams secondary. They traded away Jalen Ramsey, obviously they didn't 708 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 7: bring back a couple other guys, including David Long and 709 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 7: Troy Hill, some names that Cardinals fans are familiar with. 710 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 7: Playing the Rams twice a year, so they've been going 711 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 7: with a couple of rookies. The sixth round rookie Darien Kendrick, 712 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 7: fourth round rookie Kobe Durant, and then they signed the 713 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 7: veteran Akello Witherspoon. Before the season started, Kendrick just got 714 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 7: torched by AJ Brown, So I think you have enough 715 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 7: in your receiver room and Josh Dobbs going against a 716 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 7: front it's not I mean other than Aaron Donald. They 717 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 7: got rid of Leonard Floyd. So if you're doubling Aaron 718 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 7: Donald every single snap, you'll take your chances with everyone 719 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 7: else in that front seven, and there's gonna be opportunity 720 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 7: against that secondary of the Rams. They have been lit 721 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 7: up in several games this year. 722 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 5: That Cardinals offensive line. The pressure up the middle, I 723 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 5: don't I don't remember being an issue so far this season. 724 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 5: Whenever Dobbs has been pressured, it's from the outside and 725 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 5: he steps up because there's a clean pocket. So between 726 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 5: yelled defrojolt Will Hernandez and the rotation at left guard, 727 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 5: those three guys have been able to keep Dobbs upright 728 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 5: and give him time to throw. To your point, Paul, 729 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 5: if you're looking at this Rams defense and Kendrick and 730 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 5: Witherspoon six passes defense, between those two, you might be 731 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 5: able to kind of do what the Bengals did to 732 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 5: the Cardinals just now and reverse against the Rams. 733 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:10,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, and to Paul's point earlier, I think it was 734 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 6: just today Bobby Brown their nose tackle, it said he's 735 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 6: gonna be out six weeks with an injury. He's their 736 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 6: only defensive lineman over three hundred pounds. So you do 737 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 6: have an opportunity to try to, you know, do some 738 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 6: things in the ground game, get some movement. 739 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 4: You know. 740 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 6: One of the things that was impressive throughout this game 741 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 6: was Amari de Maricado and his three consecutive runs. I 742 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 6: think it was like eight yards and nine yards, eleven 743 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,479 Speaker 6: yards for a touchdown. It was the exact same play, 744 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 6: thirteen personnel, three tight ends on the field. It was 745 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 6: his zone to the left, his zone to the right, 746 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 6: and then his zone back to the left. And you know, 747 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,359 Speaker 6: with his running style that is perfect for him. He's 748 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 6: patient and then once he sees the hole he sticked 749 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 6: his foot in the ground, gets north south quickly. So 750 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 6: you know, I think there will be opportunities in the 751 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,720 Speaker 6: run game against the Rams defense, particularly with their personnel 752 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 6: up front, their lack of bulk on the defensive line, 753 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 6: so if you can get a run set up where 754 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 6: you're double team and Aaron Donald, and as we've talked 755 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 6: about over and over and over in the past, we 756 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 6: play the Rams he the only way to control him 757 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 6: is to run at him, because if you try to 758 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 6: go east west against an Aaron Donald, he's going to 759 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 6: track you down and get some tackles for a loss. 760 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 7: Here's the other thing the Eagles did. Jalen Hurts had 761 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 7: fifteen carries, he ran for seventy two yards and a touchdown. 762 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 7: So Josh Dobbs, we know his ability to get out 763 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:18,400 Speaker 7: in space and run it. We know he can hit 764 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:20,959 Speaker 7: nearly twenty miles per hour when he runs the ball, 765 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 7: So there's that. There's also a Rams defense that gave 766 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,800 Speaker 7: up second half drives of seventeen, fifteen and ten plays 767 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,439 Speaker 7: and then managed to keep Philly out of the end zone, 768 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 7: so it could have been a lot worse. Philly was 769 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,879 Speaker 7: mad at itself for not executing in the red zone 770 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 7: quite often in that game. 771 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,440 Speaker 5: Might need to rely a little bit more on Dobbs's legs, 772 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:42,880 Speaker 5: especially with the injuries to James Connor and Keyante Ingram 773 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 5: Cardinals single game tickets on sale now got Asycardinals dot 774 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 5: Com forward Slash buy tickets to secure your seats today. 775 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 5: As we continue here, it is the Cardinals Red Sea Report, 776 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 5: presented by seat Geek, Your ticket the great seats Craig 777 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 5: Rayol Loup, Paul Calvici, and Kyle Vanenbosch. When we come 778 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 5: back a deeper look at what is ahead for the 779 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 5: Cardinals in Los Angeles this week. This is the Arizona 780 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 5: Cardinals Radio Network. 781 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 2: Snapped to burrow straight drop back head wrapped up in 782 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 2: sack back at the nineteen by stills for Dale Wolfley, 783 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:25,760 Speaker 2: the former West Virginia mountaineer who passed yesterday. Dante Still's 784 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 2: a fellow mountaineer, making the entire Wolflee family proud what 785 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 2: a great game he's had of the first half. 786 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 5: Dante Still's sixth round draft pick out of West Virginia. 787 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 5: Ron Wolfley's younger brother, Dale passed away suddenly over the weekend. 788 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 5: That was why wolf was not in the broadcast or 789 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 5: on the broadcast on Sunday, and Paul calvic had to 790 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 5: pinch it again. Tremendous job by Paul to step in 791 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 5: at a moment's notice and do that. And again, we 792 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 5: don't know what is going on further with Ron Wolfley 793 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 5: his availability for this week, but certainly, Paul, you pinch 794 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 5: it very well. 795 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 7: Well, it was a tremendous salute by Dave Pash in 796 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 7: the moment to honor Dale Wolfley, someone I've had the 797 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,720 Speaker 7: pleasure knowing for more than twenty five years. And suffice 798 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 7: it to say that Dale had the same zest for 799 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 7: life and passion for football that his brothers do. And 800 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 7: so it's it's a tremendous loss. It was unexpected, and 801 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 7: every single thought and prayer we have going to the 802 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 7: Wolfley family all this. 803 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 5: Week absolutely echo with that as well. And we make 804 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,840 Speaker 5: that uneasy transition to Cardinals and Rams coming up this 805 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 5: Sunday in LA one twenty five is the kickoff eight 806 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 5: thirty pregame coverage begins and you hear that play call 807 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 5: with Dante Stills, Kyle and just still is another one 808 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 5: of those draft picks that is getting time on the 809 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 5: field reps, making the most of those reps now was 810 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 5: still just because of injuries to an LJ. Collier, Carlos Watkins, 811 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,839 Speaker 5: Jonathan Ledbetter. But when your number is called, you're out 812 00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 5: there producing. 813 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's he's playing very well. And to your point. 814 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 6: You know, one of the best developments with this team 815 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:09,280 Speaker 6: through five games is the contribution of this rookie class. 816 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,879 Speaker 6: You know, the ability of this rookie rookie class. I mean, 817 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 6: Mantia Sapfort has done a fantastic job of and and 818 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 6: his staff of evaluating talent coming out of college and 819 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 6: bringing the right not just the right talent, but the 820 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 6: right people and how they're made up. And you know, 821 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,320 Speaker 6: to get this type of contribution early in your rookie 822 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 6: year is extremely difficult. I mean, I you know, I 823 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 6: was a high second round pick. I was not ready 824 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 6: to be thrown on the field even though I was. 825 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 6: It takes time, It takes reps, and the only way 826 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 6: you get to develop and you you take that next 827 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 6: step is to get those live reps on an NFL 828 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 6: football field. And these guys are getting baptism by fire, 829 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 6: and it doesn't you wouldn't know, you know, if you 830 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 6: didn't know the names, you didn't know the numbers, you 831 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 6: didn't know the experience, you wouldn't know that number of 832 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 6: these players are rookies because they have stepped in and 833 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 6: played like veterans. And that's a tremendous credit also to 834 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 6: the coaching staff that has health these players very quickly 835 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 6: to be able to help this team compete on Sundays. 836 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 5: How you build a team through the draft and the 837 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,839 Speaker 5: Cardinals certainly with a great start in twenty twenty three, 838 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 5: that foundation is being built by Manty, Austin Fords and 839 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 5: head coach Jonathan Again in the foundation, something Josh Woods 840 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 5: discussed earlier this week when asked about where this team is. Again, 841 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 5: the record not where you want it to be at 842 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,879 Speaker 5: one and four, but yes, things are doing are being 843 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,479 Speaker 5: set here for not only this season, but for years 844 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:26,839 Speaker 5: to come. 845 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 9: Nick Gralis or DC just gave us, like a little 846 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 9: quote he took from someone else and says that when 847 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,439 Speaker 9: a flowers growing, the roots grow first. So like, even 848 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 9: though you might not see the outcome, the result that 849 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 9: you want, the beautiful budding flower, like, just know that 850 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 9: that foundation is being set. So that's what we're hanging 851 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 9: our hat on. That's what we're you know, coming in 852 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 9: every day to just trust the process build this foundation. 853 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 5: Now, that's someone that Nick Raalis took that analogy from 854 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 5: happened to be his head coach in Philadelphia. Nick Sirianni 855 00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 5: famous flower analogy of twenty twenty one. 856 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 11: You know, the results aren't there right now. But what's 857 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 11: going on here is that there's growth under the soil. 858 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 11: I put a picture of a flower up right, and 859 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,760 Speaker 11: that it's it's coming through the ground and the roots 860 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,439 Speaker 11: are growing out. And the only way the roots grow 861 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:17,719 Speaker 11: out and they grow stronger and they grow better is 862 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 11: if that we all water, we all fertilize, we all 863 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 11: do our part. 864 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,959 Speaker 5: That was in the midst of a four win season, Paul. 865 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 5: And then the following year, what happens They advanced. 866 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:27,879 Speaker 4: To the Super Bowl. 867 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 7: Yeah and so, and I smile because, man did he 868 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 7: get a lot of grief in the Philadelphia market. I mean, 869 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 7: he stokes sports talk radio ratings like you wouldn't believe. 870 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 7: And then when you hear the depth and the detail 871 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 7: he went into to say, you fertilize and you water it. 872 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 7: And the fact that he put the picture of the 873 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 7: flower up on the screen for a bunch of alpha males. 874 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 7: I mean, Kyle Van Deibasch, take us into an NFL 875 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 7: meeting room and when your head coach is throwing a 876 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 7: picture of a flower up on the power point screen, 877 00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 7: yes they're better be an explanation. 878 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, I've been in a lot of meetings, but never 879 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 6: has it turned into a botan any lesson from my 880 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 6: head coach. But yeah, I mean I appreciate that. It's 881 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:11,839 Speaker 6: to your point. It's probably the wrong market to get 882 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 6: all soft and give a flower example, but you know, 883 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 6: it makes a lot of sense, and it's truly how 884 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 6: this team is being built. Look, this is such a 885 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:25,359 Speaker 6: knee jerk reaction league and with the media, and it's 886 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 6: all about the wins and the losses. But this year 887 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 6: was not necessarily about the wins and losses for this team. 888 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 6: It's about growth, it's about experience, it's about buying, it's 889 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 6: about culture, it's about finding the right people and getting 890 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 6: them in the building and developing those types of players. 891 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:42,239 Speaker 6: And we can truly see that. Look, you don't necessarily 892 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:45,480 Speaker 6: see the results in the win loss column or on 893 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 6: the scoreboard, but you can see growth. You can see development. 894 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:52,800 Speaker 6: You can see guys that are fitting into this system 895 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 6: and buying into this system, and that growth will continue 896 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 6: throughout this season and very soon that growth will turn 897 00:41:59,200 --> 00:41:59,720 Speaker 6: into wins. 898 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 5: We saw that through the first four games. We just 899 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 5: didn't see it materialize on Sunday. But again, the quality 900 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 5: of opponent went up against the Bengals, and you look 901 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,320 Speaker 5: at the Rams. They come in with a record of 902 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 5: two and three. They lost at home to the Eagles 903 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 5: twenty three to fourteen. The offense didn't cross midfield in 904 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 5: the second half, defense allowed thirteen of eighteen on third down, 905 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,399 Speaker 5: and right now, this offense pretty one dimensional, Paul, when 906 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 5: you look at what Matthew Stafford has, and now with 907 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 5: Cooper Cup back in the. 908 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 7: Fold, I mean, you know, show hands how many people 909 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 7: can name the Rams starting running back Kyron Williams. 910 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 11: Right. 911 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:32,800 Speaker 7: I know I couldn't before we started looking at the Rams. 912 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 7: Here's what stands out though, that Matthew Stafford, even minus 913 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,399 Speaker 7: Cooper Cup, coming into the last game, had a top 914 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 7: five passing game in the NFL by every metric. I mean, 915 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,720 Speaker 7: they came into that game and they had the second 916 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 7: most first downs via the pass, only to Miami and 917 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 7: that vaunted offense. And then you know what they did 918 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 7: against Denver. They just skewed all the Miami Dolphins stats. 919 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 7: So Matthew Stafford can still throw it, he can still 920 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 7: read a defense, he can still find open receivers. He's 921 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 7: got Pooking Akua, who's a lot in common with the 922 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 7: Michael Wilson. They were the two guys who's bawled out 923 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 7: at the Senior Bowl, and they have taken the NFL 924 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,360 Speaker 7: by storm as is either undrafted or late round rookies. 925 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 7: And now you get also two two at Well, who 926 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 7: was a high draft pick once upon a time, and 927 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 7: so he's been great at creating space. So look, we've 928 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 7: seen Matthew Stafford before and it's gonna be a lot 929 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 7: like Joe Burrow. He's not gonna be the most mobile guy, 930 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:25,760 Speaker 7: but he's gonna take. 931 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 4: What a defense gives you. 932 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,479 Speaker 7: And he's got great arm talent to make every throw. 933 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:33,759 Speaker 5: Second most pass attempts forourthmost completion's, fourthmost passing yards. That's 934 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 5: what Matthew Stafford has. And again his favorite target right now, 935 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:38,839 Speaker 5: or at least has been Pookinakua, the fifth round draft 936 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 5: pick out of BYU Cooper Cup comes back after missing 937 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 5: four games with a hamstring injury. Makes his season debut 938 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:46,879 Speaker 5: last week, and he comes back and leaves the team 939 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:50,040 Speaker 5: in both catches and receiving yards eight for one eighteen. 940 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:52,799 Speaker 5: So you have to pay attention. And again it goes 941 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:54,759 Speaker 5: back to what we talked about with Jamar Chase. What 942 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 5: the Cardinals do defensively against Stafford and those wide receivers. 943 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,239 Speaker 7: And to hear Matthew Stafford tell at and Cooper Cup 944 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 7: they missed a number of big throws against the Eagles 945 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 7: that the chemistry wasn't quite quite there, the connection wasn't 946 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 7: quite there. So those two guys, we know what they 947 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:12,879 Speaker 7: did during that Super Bowl season. They got up every 948 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 7: morning at six am virtually during a game week and 949 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 7: they got extra reps. So I'm guessing they're gonna come 950 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 7: in and that connection is gonna be dialed in this week. 951 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 4: And we also what. 952 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 7: Happened to the Cardinals secondary last week against Jamar Chase. 953 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:26,240 Speaker 7: It's a concern. 954 00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 5: What do you want to see Kyle Real quick Cardinals 955 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 5: defense or even offense to make sure they're walking off 956 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 5: that field at SO five Stadium with. 957 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,319 Speaker 6: The w Yeah, they again they need to run the ball, 958 00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,960 Speaker 6: regardless of the fact that James Connor is not out there. 959 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 6: You know, I think one of the biggest surprise with 960 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 6: the Rams a lot like the Cardinals, they're really competitive 961 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 6: in all their games. One of the biggest surprises is 962 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 6: their top ten in yards and scoring on defense. You know, 963 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 6: other than Aaron Donald, you can't name a lot of 964 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 6: players on that defense, and they're going out there and 965 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 6: they're performing pretty well. So I think you need to 966 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 6: stick with your ground game because the play action pass 967 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:00,840 Speaker 6: has been great for this team and can control the 968 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:01,840 Speaker 6: clock against the Rams. 969 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 5: One twenty five is the kickoff. We'll talk about it 970 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,319 Speaker 5: in one week's time. Here it is the Cardinals Red 971 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:10,000 Speaker 5: Sea Report on the Arizona Cardinals Radio Network. 972 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,799 Speaker 1: You've been listening to the Cardinals Redca Report. 973 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 2: Fifteen ten to five touchdown Zack Ertz food a Baker 974 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 2: with the sack, strip the ball, Hurry's gonna score touchdown, 975 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:27,760 Speaker 2: Oh baby. 976 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: The Cardinals Red Sea Report is brought to you by 977 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals mobile app visit Azycardinals dot com, slash app. 978 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 3: Touchdown Cardinals whim. 979 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,440 Speaker 1: This has been an exclusive presentation of the Arizona Cardinals 980 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:43,240 Speaker 1: Football Club.
