<v Speaker 1>get any better than that. Hors unleash the far The

0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:04.760
<v Speaker 1>fear debate in the Big Red ball Room might be

0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:10.440
<v Speaker 1>over and done with, but definitely not here on the

0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Big Red Rage. There the hay is in the barn

0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Ron Wolfley. Here, I have a feeling the haymakers are

0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:22.920
<v Speaker 1>about to fly over the next hour. Why's that balling?

0:01:23.720 --> 0:01:26.960
<v Speaker 1>I just don't get the sense we're on the same page.

0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:31.520
<v Speaker 1>Based on the instigator, the hit and run artist on

0:01:31.760 --> 0:01:36.040
<v Speaker 1>the text messages, Dave Pash, you're just starting arguments as

0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:39.360
<v Speaker 1>to which direction in the Arizona Cardinals should go. Next

0:01:39.400 --> 0:01:42.759
<v Speaker 1>Thursday night, one week from tonight, The Big Red Rage,

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:45.839
<v Speaker 1>presented by santan Ford and Gilbert. We are santan Ford,

0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Paul Kelbs here, Ron Wolfley there. On Tuesday, we'll have

0:01:49.080 --> 0:01:52.000
<v Speaker 1>a special pre draft edition of The Big Red Rage.

0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:55.360
<v Speaker 1>By the way, and Dave Pash, Oh, you'll have your chance,

0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:58.600
<v Speaker 1>tough guy. Okay, we're going to be all about it

0:01:58.640 --> 0:02:01.240
<v Speaker 1>on Tuesday. But right now, I just have this sense,

0:02:01.320 --> 0:02:03.320
<v Speaker 1>Ron Wolf, you're gonna come out and you're gonna fill

0:02:03.360 --> 0:02:06.560
<v Speaker 1>the airwaves and you're gonna advocate for a receiver in

0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:11.639
<v Speaker 1>round one, And I will just say no, PAULI, I'm

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:15.959
<v Speaker 1>not advocating for a receiver in round one. If there

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:19.240
<v Speaker 1>is a specific receiver though that is actually there, like

0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Jay Jaylen Waddle, you know what, I'm gonna take that,

0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:23.040
<v Speaker 1>or I'm gonna run, Paul, I'm gonna do it. I'm

0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:25.720
<v Speaker 1>just gonna go ahead and take that and run wolf Wolf.

0:02:25.720 --> 0:02:27.520
<v Speaker 1>You know what, if you want to speculate, if you

0:02:27.560 --> 0:02:32.040
<v Speaker 1>want that sort of risk in round one, go trade bitcoin,

0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:35.519
<v Speaker 1>get into cryptocurrency. Okay, you gotta you gotta tell me

0:02:35.560 --> 0:02:38.919
<v Speaker 1>who else is there? Obviously, I mean, if you tell

0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:41.679
<v Speaker 1>me jac Horn is gonna be there, you know what, Paul,

0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:44.480
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna draft jac Horn. Right, that's what you're probably

0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:48.440
<v Speaker 1>going to do. Right there. You have to also say, hey, listen,

0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:51.600
<v Speaker 1>if if Davonte Smith is there, what are you gonna do, Paul,

0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:54.080
<v Speaker 1>Davonte Smith, he does scare me because he is a

0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:57.360
<v Speaker 1>little slight, is it he? Davonte Smith is there, and

0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:01.080
<v Speaker 1>somebody wants Davante Smith, I trade in an instant and

0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:03.200
<v Speaker 1>I cash that in. Yeah. The problem is, of course,

0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:05.360
<v Speaker 1>whenever you trade up or you trade down, it takes

0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 1>two to tangle. And that's the problem. Once you include

0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:11.119
<v Speaker 1>somebody else, now, all of a sudden, it becomes much

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:15.680
<v Speaker 1>more difficult to execute that. Well, Steve Kine was asked

0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:19.239
<v Speaker 1>about that earlier today, and we'll get to that very

0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:21.720
<v Speaker 1>soon on this edition of The Big Head Rage. Thankfully,

0:03:22.280 --> 0:03:24.920
<v Speaker 1>we'll get the voice of reason here as we expect

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.320
<v Speaker 1>the Hall of Famer Kurt Warner to join us on

0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:32.520
<v Speaker 1>this edition. A great bird Beard is gonna side with you, Paul, Well,

0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:35.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna you know what, I'm gonna make the argument

0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:37.520
<v Speaker 1>with not only you, but with a Hall of Famer,

0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:40.800
<v Speaker 1>mister Yellowjacket himself, that you know what, the Arizona defense

0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:44.120
<v Speaker 1>needs a top knock young cornerback as much as Kyler

0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Murray needs another weapon. So all of the weapons that

0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:50.800
<v Speaker 1>Kurt Warner has played with in his very storied career,

0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:54.160
<v Speaker 1>you don't think he might actually side with going with

0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:56.920
<v Speaker 1>the wide idol beg selball. I think your way off on.

0:03:57.200 --> 0:03:59.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying there isn't a degree of difficulty that

0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:01.720
<v Speaker 1>I have ahead of me. I'm just saying that's where

0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:03.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go down swinging on that argument. That's what

0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm about to say. What if Mica Parsons falls to

0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:10.640
<v Speaker 1>number sixteen? Ron Walthley, did you not watch the Super Bowl?

0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Did you not see what Devin White and Lavante David

0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:17.640
<v Speaker 1>meant to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers despite Tom Brady I do, Hey, listen,

0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:20.560
<v Speaker 1>if you tell me it's Micah Parsons at sixty, I'll

0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:22.599
<v Speaker 1>be okay. Paul. I don't think he's gonna be there,

0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:25.240
<v Speaker 1>but I'll be okay with that too. You know, I

0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:28.080
<v Speaker 1>did an event last night with a former player host

0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:31.279
<v Speaker 1>of the Big Red Rage Carlos Dansby, Ah Los was

0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:34.760
<v Speaker 1>in full form dirty and leave it to Los to

0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:37.560
<v Speaker 1>bring up that. Hey, the year the Cardinals had Carlos

0:04:37.600 --> 0:04:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Dansby and Daryl Washington. If you can now have Micah

0:04:41.120 --> 0:04:46.120
<v Speaker 1>Parsons and Isaiah Simmons think about that, we'll get to

0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:48.159
<v Speaker 1>what Steve Kim had to say today. It is the

0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 1>Big Red Rage presented by santan Ford and Gilbert. We

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:58.840
<v Speaker 1>are santan Ford, where are you guys right now? In

0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:02.559
<v Speaker 1>the draft? Prop says, have you already stood on the table? Drew?

0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:05.679
<v Speaker 1>Have you stood on the table and had it out?

0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Have you had those meetings yet? The shoeprints are on

0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:13.320
<v Speaker 1>the table. Wolf, there they're there. There. You're going director

0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:16.720
<v Speaker 1>a player personel Drew Grigson last week in response to

0:05:16.760 --> 0:05:19.800
<v Speaker 1>Wolf's question about um, shall we say, how animated do

0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:21.720
<v Speaker 1>you think some of the discussions got in the war

0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:24.120
<v Speaker 1>room as they tried to set their final one twenty

0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:29.120
<v Speaker 1>to three years sometimes invested in each player and the

0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:32.400
<v Speaker 1>scatter reports and the rankings, and Wolf, when you ask

0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 1>that question, and we're moments away from being joined by

0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Kurt Warner. By the way, the Hall of Famer and

0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:39.920
<v Speaker 1>we'll talk draft and everything else about the Cardinals. But

0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:42.160
<v Speaker 1>when you pose that question, did you mean it to

0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:44.800
<v Speaker 1>a certain degree? I mean, just how spirited do you

0:05:44.839 --> 0:05:47.920
<v Speaker 1>think it gets in there? Oh? No, Pollie, absolutely, I

0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:50.440
<v Speaker 1>meant that. Yeah, there's no doubt about it. I mean,

0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:53.920
<v Speaker 1>for me, Paul, excuse me, I got something caught in

0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:58.000
<v Speaker 1>my throat. And we don't know because that's the one

0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 1>place we're never allowed. I mean, we're just ever allowed

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:03.560
<v Speaker 1>into the war room. A select few, are right, But

0:06:03.680 --> 0:06:05.840
<v Speaker 1>there does get to that, like that one or two

0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>weeks where everyone comes in from all the remote locations

0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:12.760
<v Speaker 1>and they have it out. Yeah, they have it out, Paul.

0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:16.600
<v Speaker 1>But once again, it's probably the most entertaining part of

0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:19.920
<v Speaker 1>the year when you're talking about these scouts, and as

0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:23.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, these guys they do they invest years into

0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:27.160
<v Speaker 1>certain guys and suddenly they stand up and they say,

0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:29.640
<v Speaker 1>this guy, We've got to draft this guy. I think

0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.320
<v Speaker 1>this guy is the best at his position. And some

0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:35.240
<v Speaker 1>other scout who scouted some other guy is going to

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:37.080
<v Speaker 1>look at him and say, what are you talking about?

0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:41.120
<v Speaker 1>The best at This guy is the best at his position.

0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:43.320
<v Speaker 1>And guess what happens, Paul. I mean, these guys, this

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:46.480
<v Speaker 1>is how they build their careers. This is how scouts

0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:49.680
<v Speaker 1>build their careers and how they turn those careers at

0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:53.640
<v Speaker 1>scouting into being a general manager climbing the ladder and

0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:57.160
<v Speaker 1>someday being a general manager. Whom do you hitch your

0:06:57.240 --> 0:07:00.960
<v Speaker 1>wagon too as a scout? And what player pans out

0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:03.640
<v Speaker 1>as a pro and what player does not? Paul and

0:07:03.800 --> 0:07:08.760
<v Speaker 1>people kept they keep records of this stuff. Well, there

0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:11.600
<v Speaker 1>was the pre draft press conference today featuring the GM

0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:13.760
<v Speaker 1>Steve Kim, the head coach, Cliff Kingsbury. One of the

0:07:13.840 --> 0:07:16.720
<v Speaker 1>questions was where do you consider the deepest parts of

0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:18.880
<v Speaker 1>the draft. Remember the answer Drew Grigson gave us on

0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:21.760
<v Speaker 1>the show We could go immediately? He said pass rusher.

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:25.880
<v Speaker 1>And that's rarely, if ever the case in any draft.

0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:27.520
<v Speaker 1>You can count on one or two hands how many

0:07:27.600 --> 0:07:30.200
<v Speaker 1>legit pass rushers there are. He says, it's very deep

0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:34.440
<v Speaker 1>this year. Steve Kimes answer that question today was outside linebacker, yes,

0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:39.440
<v Speaker 1>inside linebacker, receiver, corner, and some of the interior O line.

0:07:39.560 --> 0:07:42.400
<v Speaker 1>And then Steve Kim was asked Wolf just about the

0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:45.960
<v Speaker 1>potential maybe doing what the Niners did or the Dolphins

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:49.480
<v Speaker 1>have done twice or the Eagles trade up, trade down?

0:07:49.640 --> 0:07:52.720
<v Speaker 1>What do you think GM, Steve Kim with six picks

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:54.800
<v Speaker 1>and where we're sitting, I think it would be more

0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:57.880
<v Speaker 1>likely to trade back than the trade up. So that's

0:07:57.960 --> 0:07:59.840
<v Speaker 1>one thing. And then you know, as far as trading

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 1>accumulating more picks, it's no different than a lottery ticket.

0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:06.080
<v Speaker 1>The more you have, the better you have a chance

0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:08.640
<v Speaker 1>to hit. We know it's in an exact business and

0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:10.520
<v Speaker 1>to be able to accumulate more picks would be a

0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:12.840
<v Speaker 1>real coup for us. Do you buy that, Ron Wolfley?

0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:14.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, not this time of year. I really don't.

0:08:14.880 --> 0:08:16.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't buy it at all. I don't buy anything

0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:19.720
<v Speaker 1>that any general manager says in the National Football League

0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:21.920
<v Speaker 1>this time of year. I just don't do it. I mean,

0:08:22.000 --> 0:08:26.320
<v Speaker 1>you're talking about being a week away from the NFL draft,

0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:29.920
<v Speaker 1>and draft supt or fuge is absolutely real. Why in

0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:33.439
<v Speaker 1>the world, Paul, would you ever give anybody an inclination

0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:34.800
<v Speaker 1>as to what it is that you're going to do

0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:39.040
<v Speaker 1>or what you're thinking about possibly doing. Yeah, you wouldn't.

0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:41.679
<v Speaker 1>It makes no sense. It does not benefit you in

0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:45.240
<v Speaker 1>any way, shape or form. What does benefit you in

0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:48.319
<v Speaker 1>any way, shape or form is saying something that might

0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 1>be misleading to somebody else, do you know, Paul, In

0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:55.319
<v Speaker 1>certain organizations, most organizations in the NFL, they actually have

0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:59.160
<v Speaker 1>people that record this stuff, what you say before the

0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:02.640
<v Speaker 1>draft as a general manager and what you actually do

0:09:03.160 --> 0:09:06.080
<v Speaker 1>in the draft. Why do you think they would do that, Polly,

0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:08.439
<v Speaker 1>Why do you think that makes sense to actually do

0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:11.520
<v Speaker 1>that to fund They're trying to pin down which way

0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:14.079
<v Speaker 1>you really are going to go. They want to know

0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:18.520
<v Speaker 1>who your personality really is, Polly. So on Wall Street,

0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:21.760
<v Speaker 1>past performance is no guarantee of future results, but you're

0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:23.840
<v Speaker 1>saying when it comes to gms and their pre draft

0:09:23.920 --> 0:09:26.800
<v Speaker 1>press or sometimes their past performance is an indicator of

0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:28.800
<v Speaker 1>where they go on draft night. I mean, there are

0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:31.680
<v Speaker 1>some general managers that will look at other general managers

0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:35.520
<v Speaker 1>and go, you are just laugh out loud, funny. You've

0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:38.120
<v Speaker 1>got to be kidding me, right, because of some of

0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:40.280
<v Speaker 1>the things that they've said in the past and then

0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:43.199
<v Speaker 1>some of the things that they've actually done. And there

0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:46.120
<v Speaker 1>are some general managers that, believe it or not, Polly,

0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:49.360
<v Speaker 1>actually do kind of tell the truth. There are some

0:09:49.600 --> 0:09:51.960
<v Speaker 1>that actually do it, Paul, but they think you're never

0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:55.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna believe them. Anyways, there was one year where Bruce

0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:58.400
<v Speaker 1>arians just just flat out lie and then he said afterwards,

0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:00.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm a good liar, but there was one your Wolf

0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:03.920
<v Speaker 1>where he pretty much told it as it was. And

0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:06.719
<v Speaker 1>remember we did his Coaches show not long thereafter, and

0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:08.719
<v Speaker 1>he just said, yeah, everyone thinks you're lying, so I

0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:10.920
<v Speaker 1>just sort of told the truth, and every nobody believes

0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:13.600
<v Speaker 1>you anyway, so it doesn't really matter. So he went

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:16.439
<v Speaker 1>reverse psychode. That would be a reason once again to

0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:19.240
<v Speaker 1>actually keep track of this stuff, so you get to

0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:22.280
<v Speaker 1>know who your opponent is, you get to know who

0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:25.720
<v Speaker 1>these other general managers are, and who might be actually

0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:28.920
<v Speaker 1>giving a solid indicator as to what they're going to

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:32.800
<v Speaker 1>do in who's full of it? Okay, so I listened today.

0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Can I give you my translation? Yes? My GM two

0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:39.120
<v Speaker 1>English translation goes something like this, make me an offer

0:10:39.360 --> 0:10:42.200
<v Speaker 1>I can't refuse. I think Steve Kim is saying, all

0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:46.839
<v Speaker 1>these insiders have us potentially moving up. But you know what,

0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:49.839
<v Speaker 1>everyone who thinks I'm moving up and they're keeping the

0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:52.839
<v Speaker 1>price sky high to move up, guess what I might

0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:55.920
<v Speaker 1>move back? And if you're listening to me, I'm just

0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:58.160
<v Speaker 1>as likely to move back as I am to move up.

0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:00.920
<v Speaker 1>So you know what you guys better start giving me

0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:04.720
<v Speaker 1>some reasonable trade deals here if I'm going to entertain

0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:07.959
<v Speaker 1>any of these, whether it's up or down. Okay, you've

0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:10.360
<v Speaker 1>got one week t minus one week in counting you're

0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:12.080
<v Speaker 1>on the clock to give me a real phone call

0:11:12.160 --> 0:11:13.880
<v Speaker 1>worth my time. The only thing I would say to you,

0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:16.520
<v Speaker 1>apolly on that is all the one year signings that

0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:21.280
<v Speaker 1>they made and the acquisition of Rodney Hudson and knowing

0:11:21.320 --> 0:11:23.400
<v Speaker 1>you've got two years with JJ Watt. I don't know

0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:26.160
<v Speaker 1>about that, Paul. I think win now is what they're

0:11:26.200 --> 0:11:29.600
<v Speaker 1>looking at. So you're saying they're going to trade up

0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:31.959
<v Speaker 1>to four and take gyle pits the tight end, not

0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:34.080
<v Speaker 1>saying they're going to trade up at all. I'm just saying,

0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:36.880
<v Speaker 1>if there's a possibility, I think that is what they

0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:40.079
<v Speaker 1>would do because they're in win now. Let's see what

0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:42.840
<v Speaker 1>Curve Warner has to say. Yes, the Hall of Famer.

0:11:42.960 --> 0:11:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Next on the big red Rag presented by Santan Ford

0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:58.959
<v Speaker 1>in Gilbert current Warner with an absolutely perfect pass right

0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:02.720
<v Speaker 1>on the money. Old Graybeard looks sharp. Dudney his Kurt

0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:06.679
<v Speaker 1>Warner sick er water. Kurt. You have to be Kidney

0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:10.520
<v Speaker 1>right there, right bro By Kurt Warner. Kurt Warner using

0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:14.040
<v Speaker 1>the kung fu grip. You want to talk about cool

0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:18.760
<v Speaker 1>as a cucumber and the refrigerator, the gloved one leading

0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:22.079
<v Speaker 1>them down the field again. Wow, Kurt Warner isn't in

0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:26.200
<v Speaker 1>the zone. He is the zone. Kurt Warner could throw

0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:30.040
<v Speaker 1>a twinkie into a toaster. I mean, this guy is

0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:34.760
<v Speaker 1>on fire. Into the archives with the collective voice of

0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:38.480
<v Speaker 1>the Arizona Cardinal's day pass, Ron Wolfley talking about a

0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:42.520
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl champion, a Super Bowl MVP, and NFL MVP,

0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:47.400
<v Speaker 1>Ron Wolfley, a guy I consider most responsible for changing

0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:52.560
<v Speaker 1>the culture and direction of the Arizona Cardinals. They're making

0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:54.800
<v Speaker 1>a movie out of his life story and can I

0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:57.760
<v Speaker 1>use the word irony when we're about to talk NFL

0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:00.840
<v Speaker 1>Draft with Kurt Warner and kurtis consider probably the greatest

0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:05.600
<v Speaker 1>undrafted player ever in the history of the NFL. Kurt,

0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:07.840
<v Speaker 1>how are we doing this evening? I am doing really

0:13:07.880 --> 0:13:10.720
<v Speaker 1>really well. How are you guys? We're doing Kurt? Thank

0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:13.160
<v Speaker 1>you so much for joining us, Man. We really appreciate it.

0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:16.120
<v Speaker 1>As always, bro oah Man, always always a pleasure to

0:13:16.200 --> 0:13:18.320
<v Speaker 1>talk to you guys, and I know it's a fun

0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:20.920
<v Speaker 1>time of year as we're all involved in the NFL,

0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:24.000
<v Speaker 1>and obviously you involved at the Cardinals that time of

0:13:24.080 --> 0:13:25.720
<v Speaker 1>year when we're getting close to the draft and all

0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:29.480
<v Speaker 1>the speculation and all the excitement, getting ready for what

0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:31.360
<v Speaker 1>plays out, and then to see how it plays out

0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:34.959
<v Speaker 1>next fall. You know, Cliff Kingsbury today mentioned he was

0:13:35.000 --> 0:13:37.079
<v Speaker 1>asked about Kyler and you just said, you know, to

0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:40.240
<v Speaker 1>his experience, and some of it is based on college

0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:43.520
<v Speaker 1>that guys in year three other NFL career, Now you

0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:46.440
<v Speaker 1>were the exception, but guys who come up as rookies

0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:48.880
<v Speaker 1>and then year three that that really is the liftoff

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:50.880
<v Speaker 1>period in a lot of cases. Last year we saw

0:13:51.000 --> 0:13:53.760
<v Speaker 1>Baker Mayfield, we saw Josh Allen for example. To what

0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:56.319
<v Speaker 1>you read, do you think Kyler is poised for that

0:13:56.440 --> 0:14:01.000
<v Speaker 1>leap in year three? Well, I mean, I think when

0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:04.000
<v Speaker 1>you look at just the last two years, I thought

0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:06.880
<v Speaker 1>he made a nice leap from year one to year two.

0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:09.360
<v Speaker 1>I would say a lot of a lot of guys

0:14:09.440 --> 0:14:12.000
<v Speaker 1>in the league, a lot of players say that that's

0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:14.400
<v Speaker 1>where you make your biggest chump is from year one

0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 1>to year two. As you come in the first year,

0:14:16.200 --> 0:14:18.599
<v Speaker 1>you're just kind of a wide eyed rookie trying to

0:14:18.720 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 1>just survive and figure it out in a sixteen game

0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:23.840
<v Speaker 1>season and all that stuff. And then once you settle

0:14:23.920 --> 0:14:25.560
<v Speaker 1>in and you figure out what it's all about, you

0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:30.240
<v Speaker 1>can make a big jump into year two. But you know,

0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:34.680
<v Speaker 1>the hope I believe for all young guys and all

0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:38.600
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks specifically, is that you continue to see the progression

0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:41.440
<v Speaker 1>and you talk about the leap in year three. We

0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.800
<v Speaker 1>can go look at Josh Allen and the incredible leap

0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:48.440
<v Speaker 1>that he took last year. I mean almost transcendent that

0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:50.680
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know if he could ever he would ever

0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:53.400
<v Speaker 1>get to the point that he played at last year.

0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:57.040
<v Speaker 1>And so now the expectation becomes, Okay, what's he going

0:14:57.080 --> 0:14:58.560
<v Speaker 1>to be the rest of his career? Can he live

0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:01.880
<v Speaker 1>up to that expectation that he said in year three?

0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:05.560
<v Speaker 1>But but yeah, I mean you want to see them

0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:09.320
<v Speaker 1>continue to progress and get better. I mean, let's remember,

0:15:09.360 --> 0:15:10.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Kyler Murray for the first half of the

0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:14.440
<v Speaker 1>year was a part of the MVP conversation. So let's

0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:16.920
<v Speaker 1>not you know, let's not sit here and go, oh gosh,

0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:19.320
<v Speaker 1>he's got to get so much better, or let's hope

0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:21.520
<v Speaker 1>he makes a big leap. I mean, he was in

0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:23.840
<v Speaker 1>that conversation for a big part of the year. Now,

0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:26.440
<v Speaker 1>there is definitely room to grow because a lot of

0:15:27.240 --> 0:15:30.280
<v Speaker 1>that hype was around what he was doing with his

0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:33.720
<v Speaker 1>legs more than what he was doing with his arm,

0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:37.280
<v Speaker 1>meaning just playing within the pocket and deciphering defenses and

0:15:37.400 --> 0:15:39.840
<v Speaker 1>some of that stuff. So that's where I want to

0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:42.720
<v Speaker 1>see him get better. But I felt he got a

0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:47.280
<v Speaker 1>lot more comfortable just in the role and playing the

0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:50.640
<v Speaker 1>position last year, and the game seemed to slow down

0:15:50.720 --> 0:15:52.840
<v Speaker 1>for him, and thus the reason he made a lot

0:15:52.920 --> 0:15:55.680
<v Speaker 1>of plays. Now. I think he just needs to grow

0:15:56.120 --> 0:15:59.680
<v Speaker 1>in that mental side of understanding what he's seeing, making

0:15:59.760 --> 0:16:02.320
<v Speaker 1>him more of the layups I like to call him,

0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:07.000
<v Speaker 1>and not having to live in that special world which

0:16:07.080 --> 0:16:09.520
<v Speaker 1>we know he can do those things. But even the

0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:12.080
<v Speaker 1>best quarterbacks in the league that can do those things,

0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:14.920
<v Speaker 1>the more they live in that world, the more their

0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:18.200
<v Speaker 1>team struggles, and the more they struggle as quarterbacks, the

0:16:18.320 --> 0:16:21.080
<v Speaker 1>less they live in that world. Meaning make the layups,

0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:23.600
<v Speaker 1>make the plays you're supposed to do, and then give

0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:26.040
<v Speaker 1>us four five of those a game. Those are the

0:16:26.160 --> 0:16:29.520
<v Speaker 1>teams to me that really push the envelope and become

0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:34.520
<v Speaker 1>playoff teams and even can become championship teams because you know,

0:16:34.560 --> 0:16:37.200
<v Speaker 1>when you're playing against good teams, it is hard to

0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:41.640
<v Speaker 1>be that special player weekend and week out, ten twelve,

0:16:41.840 --> 0:16:45.560
<v Speaker 1>fifteen times a game because everybody's so talented. So do

0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:47.680
<v Speaker 1>what you're supposed to do and then give me just

0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:50.200
<v Speaker 1>a little bit extra. It is press or. Today Cliff

0:16:50.280 --> 0:16:54.120
<v Speaker 1>Kingsbury was talking about the evolution of this offense. What

0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:57.240
<v Speaker 1>do you think that looks like in year three? Kurt,

0:16:57.360 --> 0:17:02.080
<v Speaker 1>what do you think the evolution of this offense looks like? Yeah,

0:17:02.760 --> 0:17:05.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm not really sure because I've still been trying to

0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:10.160
<v Speaker 1>figure out exactly what they are offensively. Now we talk

0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:14.280
<v Speaker 1>about the evolution. I believe brainon DeAndre Hopkins last year

0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:18.280
<v Speaker 1>helps every offense evolve because what you always want to

0:17:18.320 --> 0:17:21.200
<v Speaker 1>have in an offense is you want to have that guy,

0:17:21.760 --> 0:17:24.639
<v Speaker 1>that guy that can play the ex position that a

0:17:24.840 --> 0:17:29.159
<v Speaker 1>team either a leaves one on one, which makes the

0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:32.920
<v Speaker 1>game easier for any play call or any offense, and

0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:36.920
<v Speaker 1>especially a young quarterback. Hey, DeAndre is one on one, Okay,

0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:39.440
<v Speaker 1>I can go there a lot of the time. So

0:17:39.640 --> 0:17:41.560
<v Speaker 1>that's the first part of the evolution, is they have

0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:46.200
<v Speaker 1>that guy, that difference making guy over there at that position,

0:17:46.760 --> 0:17:51.359
<v Speaker 1>and then the evolution becomes how far can we push

0:17:51.480 --> 0:17:54.760
<v Speaker 1>the envelope? Is a lot of offenses are very similar.

0:17:55.480 --> 0:18:00.320
<v Speaker 1>What really separates offenses is the flexibility of players, the

0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:03.879
<v Speaker 1>ability to push the envelope with complimentary football in the

0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:06.800
<v Speaker 1>passing game, and then of course the ability of the

0:18:06.920 --> 0:18:11.560
<v Speaker 1>quarterback to handle all of that stuff, see those things

0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:15.320
<v Speaker 1>and allow the creativity of an offense to take shape

0:18:15.800 --> 0:18:18.640
<v Speaker 1>because they have the ability to see it and make

0:18:18.760 --> 0:18:20.560
<v Speaker 1>the plays that are supposed to be made. And so

0:18:21.080 --> 0:18:23.880
<v Speaker 1>that to me is when you talk about evolution. That's

0:18:23.920 --> 0:18:26.080
<v Speaker 1>what I'm waiting to see is that I know we

0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:28.680
<v Speaker 1>have DeAndre now, and I know Kyler can drop back

0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:31.200
<v Speaker 1>and throw it to DeAndre one on one anytime he wants,

0:18:31.240 --> 0:18:35.200
<v Speaker 1>and they've got a great rapport and that works. Now

0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:39.800
<v Speaker 1>I need to see, Okay, conceptually, can they create both

0:18:40.720 --> 0:18:44.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, coach Kingsbury and Kayler. Can they create a

0:18:44.800 --> 0:18:49.840
<v Speaker 1>special offense together where they can utilize the mind of

0:18:50.240 --> 0:18:53.520
<v Speaker 1>the coach with the physical abilities and the mind of

0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:58.160
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback and those things mesh together. Now you feel

0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:01.520
<v Speaker 1>like you've got everything at your find fingertips, and now

0:19:01.680 --> 0:19:05.040
<v Speaker 1>you give yourself the opportunity to really be dynamic offensively.

0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:07.600
<v Speaker 1>We're on board with Kurt Warner. It's all about you,

0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:11.000
<v Speaker 1>presented by Santan Ford in Gilbert. We know need is

0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:15.080
<v Speaker 1>baked into every draft board. So when it comes to position,

0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:17.960
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of people would think Kyler needs another

0:19:18.040 --> 0:19:20.480
<v Speaker 1>weapon Kurt to go along with DeAndre Hopkins and AJ

0:19:20.640 --> 0:19:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Green and Christian Kirk and then others say, oh wait

0:19:22.520 --> 0:19:25.000
<v Speaker 1>a minute, you just lost Patrick Peterson. You need that

0:19:25.119 --> 0:19:28.160
<v Speaker 1>long term top knoch young corner. Is there a position

0:19:28.280 --> 0:19:32.720
<v Speaker 1>you feel strongly about the Cardinals need on Thursday night? Yeah,

0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:35.199
<v Speaker 1>I think you hit on two that I would love

0:19:35.280 --> 0:19:37.640
<v Speaker 1>to see. You know, AJ Green signs of one year deal,

0:19:37.760 --> 0:19:41.360
<v Speaker 1>Malcolm Butler signs of one year deal. So good players,

0:19:41.640 --> 0:19:44.880
<v Speaker 1>especially if they stay healthy, but obviously not the long

0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:48.080
<v Speaker 1>term answers. And so in this day and age, you

0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:51.920
<v Speaker 1>want to have that shut down corner and Patrick gave

0:19:51.960 --> 0:19:54.960
<v Speaker 1>you that for so long. You love to be able

0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:58.240
<v Speaker 1>to replace that if you can find one of those guys.

0:19:58.320 --> 0:20:02.040
<v Speaker 1>I know you have Byron already a young guy there,

0:20:02.119 --> 0:20:04.719
<v Speaker 1>but you'd like to find a shutdown corner if you can.

0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:08.560
<v Speaker 1>The playmaking on offense, you know, we still don't know

0:20:08.640 --> 0:20:11.000
<v Speaker 1>what fits is going to do. But we know where

0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:13.520
<v Speaker 1>he's at in the mix, and they've got some nice

0:20:13.560 --> 0:20:17.840
<v Speaker 1>complimentary pieces, but don't have that. You know, obviously you'd

0:20:17.880 --> 0:20:20.040
<v Speaker 1>love to get another number one with DeAndre, but even

0:20:20.560 --> 0:20:24.680
<v Speaker 1>that complimentary, really strong number two to go on the

0:20:24.800 --> 0:20:27.880
<v Speaker 1>other side and give you some playmaking would be great.

0:20:28.320 --> 0:20:30.840
<v Speaker 1>And then you know, to me, I always look at

0:20:30.880 --> 0:20:35.240
<v Speaker 1>weapons as really good offensive linemen, and so I would

0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:37.480
<v Speaker 1>have no problem if they found one of these really

0:20:37.720 --> 0:20:41.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, good offensive linemen, whether it's inside or outside,

0:20:41.400 --> 0:20:45.440
<v Speaker 1>to continue to solidify things up front, to protect Kyler,

0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:48.439
<v Speaker 1>to be able to run the football. So those are

0:20:48.520 --> 0:20:50.600
<v Speaker 1>those are three areas that I could see them go,

0:20:50.800 --> 0:20:55.720
<v Speaker 1>depending on how things shake out and who could fall where.

0:20:56.040 --> 0:20:57.880
<v Speaker 1>And you know, and I think you have some really good,

0:20:57.920 --> 0:21:00.800
<v Speaker 1>obviously wide receivers in the man and you've got some

0:21:00.920 --> 0:21:04.040
<v Speaker 1>really good cornerbacks as well. It's just a matter of

0:21:04.560 --> 0:21:07.200
<v Speaker 1>how highly you have these guys rated and where you

0:21:07.320 --> 0:21:10.480
<v Speaker 1>think they can fit. But those are three positions that

0:21:10.640 --> 0:21:14.360
<v Speaker 1>I could see them going any direction, depending on who

0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:16.760
<v Speaker 1>may be available, on how you know things may shake out.

0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:20.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's amazing because a quarterback in a center,

0:21:20.280 --> 0:21:23.280
<v Speaker 1>you guys have special relationships for the most parts, and

0:21:23.400 --> 0:21:26.240
<v Speaker 1>we all know what we're talking about, but a quarterback

0:21:26.600 --> 0:21:28.920
<v Speaker 1>and a center for the most part. Many times in

0:21:29.000 --> 0:21:31.399
<v Speaker 1>my career i'd say the quarterback sitting down with a

0:21:31.480 --> 0:21:36.000
<v Speaker 1>center and having conversations, whether it was professional conversations or

0:21:36.080 --> 0:21:39.720
<v Speaker 1>personal conversations. What do you think, Kurtz, the impact of

0:21:39.920 --> 0:21:44.439
<v Speaker 1>Rodney Hudson may be on Kyler Murray? Well, the biggest

0:21:44.480 --> 0:21:46.800
<v Speaker 1>thing when you're playing quarterback is you want to play

0:21:46.880 --> 0:21:50.200
<v Speaker 1>quarterback and you don't want to worry about the guys

0:21:50.320 --> 0:21:53.920
<v Speaker 1>up front. And so you know, and again too full

0:21:54.040 --> 0:21:56.480
<v Speaker 1>not worrying about them in terms of them being able

0:21:56.520 --> 0:22:00.760
<v Speaker 1>to protect you, but also not worry about them seeing

0:22:00.920 --> 0:22:03.680
<v Speaker 1>things the same way that you see them. And so

0:22:04.119 --> 0:22:06.520
<v Speaker 1>for me, you know, I was only in a system

0:22:06.560 --> 0:22:08.680
<v Speaker 1>that called out the mic one year in New York,

0:22:08.720 --> 0:22:11.640
<v Speaker 1>and I hated it because I just said to myself, well,

0:22:11.720 --> 0:22:14.320
<v Speaker 1>that guy's the mic. Everybody should know that guy's the mic.

0:22:14.400 --> 0:22:16.080
<v Speaker 1>Why do I have to tell everybody every time I

0:22:16.160 --> 0:22:18.000
<v Speaker 1>come up to the line of scrimmage it's the guy

0:22:18.080 --> 0:22:20.600
<v Speaker 1>in the middle. We should all know that. And then

0:22:20.680 --> 0:22:23.199
<v Speaker 1>if we want to do something different, then I can

0:22:23.280 --> 0:22:27.280
<v Speaker 1>communicate that. But I want everybody to know that going in. That,

0:22:27.440 --> 0:22:29.399
<v Speaker 1>to me is what makes a good offensive line. As

0:22:29.440 --> 0:22:32.560
<v Speaker 1>you recognize what you're seeing, you can get to those guys.

0:22:32.960 --> 0:22:35.320
<v Speaker 1>You have a center as you're talking about that, communicate

0:22:35.440 --> 0:22:38.240
<v Speaker 1>that and comes up and go day yeah fifty two, Mike,

0:22:38.320 --> 0:22:39.640
<v Speaker 1>and this is where we're going and this is where

0:22:39.640 --> 0:22:41.639
<v Speaker 1>we're sliding. And I come up and I know that

0:22:41.720 --> 0:22:45.560
<v Speaker 1>that guy's thinking exactly what I'm thinking in those situations,

0:22:45.840 --> 0:22:48.280
<v Speaker 1>and then I can just play ball. I don't have

0:22:48.480 --> 0:22:52.000
<v Speaker 1>to worry about those guys up front or what they're

0:22:52.040 --> 0:22:54.360
<v Speaker 1>going to do or do I need to tell them

0:22:54.400 --> 0:22:56.800
<v Speaker 1>and make sure that they're And that, to me is

0:22:56.840 --> 0:23:00.800
<v Speaker 1>where a center and a quarterback relationship is so important.

0:23:01.080 --> 0:23:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Is that I just want to know what you're thinking.

0:23:03.160 --> 0:23:06.080
<v Speaker 1>And as long as we think the same way, now

0:23:06.160 --> 0:23:07.879
<v Speaker 1>I can deal with what I need to deal with

0:23:08.040 --> 0:23:10.080
<v Speaker 1>from there, and I trust you to deal with what

0:23:10.200 --> 0:23:12.520
<v Speaker 1>you need to deal with. It's when you're not on

0:23:12.600 --> 0:23:15.360
<v Speaker 1>the same page. And so having a guy like Roddy

0:23:15.440 --> 0:23:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Hudson that has been around, has seen it, has seen everything,

0:23:19.640 --> 0:23:23.520
<v Speaker 1>has played at an extremely high level, hopefully that can

0:23:23.680 --> 0:23:27.439
<v Speaker 1>free Kiler up and help solve some of those issues.

0:23:27.880 --> 0:23:30.280
<v Speaker 1>And so he can just play ball and he doesn't

0:23:30.320 --> 0:23:33.119
<v Speaker 1>have to think and worry about those things, especially as

0:23:33.200 --> 0:23:37.040
<v Speaker 1>he's trying to make that evolution and learn how to

0:23:37.119 --> 0:23:39.240
<v Speaker 1>play the position a little bit better. That he doesn't

0:23:39.240 --> 0:23:41.160
<v Speaker 1>have to worry about anything that's going on up front,

0:23:41.200 --> 0:23:44.040
<v Speaker 1>and he can really trust those group of guys. And

0:23:44.160 --> 0:23:46.760
<v Speaker 1>so that's what I think you're always hoping to get

0:23:47.320 --> 0:23:50.359
<v Speaker 1>from your center, is that we talk often about an

0:23:50.359 --> 0:23:54.360
<v Speaker 1>offensive coordinator and a quarterback seeing the game the same way,

0:23:54.560 --> 0:23:56.720
<v Speaker 1>and that helps when you're designing plays and all of

0:23:56.760 --> 0:23:59.840
<v Speaker 1>those things. And it's the same to me for a

0:24:00.040 --> 0:24:02.399
<v Speaker 1>center and a quarterback. If you guys can see the

0:24:02.520 --> 0:24:05.440
<v Speaker 1>game the same way, that just frees both of you

0:24:05.600 --> 0:24:07.520
<v Speaker 1>up to just say it. I know he's gonna be

0:24:07.560 --> 0:24:09.239
<v Speaker 1>thinking what I'm thinking. We'll just call it right here

0:24:09.240 --> 0:24:12.440
<v Speaker 1>and we'll move on and we'll play fast. By the way,

0:24:12.560 --> 0:24:15.159
<v Speaker 1>Tom Brady, you mentioned calling out the mic, he had

0:24:15.200 --> 0:24:17.320
<v Speaker 1>a pointed opinion today about how he doesn't like the

0:24:17.359 --> 0:24:21.480
<v Speaker 1>new single digit jersey rule and he wrote, dumb, why

0:24:21.560 --> 0:24:23.920
<v Speaker 1>not let the lineman wear whatever they want to? Good

0:24:24.000 --> 0:24:26.400
<v Speaker 1>luck trying to block the right people. Now, it's gonna

0:24:26.440 --> 0:24:29.960
<v Speaker 1>make for a lot of bad football. Hey, you've been

0:24:30.040 --> 0:24:32.600
<v Speaker 1>there over the line of scrimmage and trying to figure out, Okay,

0:24:32.640 --> 0:24:34.760
<v Speaker 1>who's coming who is it? Is that a problem if

0:24:34.800 --> 0:24:37.400
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden, linebackers are not wearing single digits.

0:24:39.040 --> 0:24:41.719
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it's a problem. I think like everything

0:24:41.760 --> 0:24:44.720
<v Speaker 1>else will adapt to it, and you'll game plan and

0:24:44.840 --> 0:24:47.359
<v Speaker 1>you'll know whether ray Lewis is fifty two or ray

0:24:47.480 --> 0:24:50.440
<v Speaker 1>Lewis is zero, or ray Lewis is ninety nine. We'll

0:24:50.520 --> 0:24:52.560
<v Speaker 1>know what number he is when he comes into the building,

0:24:52.920 --> 0:24:55.480
<v Speaker 1>and you know it's not gonna matter which one of

0:24:55.520 --> 0:24:58.320
<v Speaker 1>those he's wearing, and you know we'll can attest to this.

0:24:58.760 --> 0:25:01.720
<v Speaker 1>The biggest thing when we're talking about protections and blocking schemes,

0:25:02.480 --> 0:25:05.880
<v Speaker 1>it's unblocking the guy that's in that spot. I don't

0:25:05.920 --> 0:25:09.680
<v Speaker 1>care what number he's wearing. That guy in between those

0:25:09.720 --> 0:25:13.119
<v Speaker 1>other two guys as the mic linebacker. And so that's

0:25:13.160 --> 0:25:16.399
<v Speaker 1>how I see it. Now we can identify them by

0:25:16.800 --> 0:25:20.159
<v Speaker 1>the number they're wearing. But I never really even saw numbers.

0:25:20.240 --> 0:25:23.280
<v Speaker 1>It was more just oh, that's that position, is the mic,

0:25:23.760 --> 0:25:27.200
<v Speaker 1>that's the same, that's the will whatever, and so yeah,

0:25:27.240 --> 0:25:29.399
<v Speaker 1>it might be an adjustment early on because you're not

0:25:29.560 --> 0:25:34.399
<v Speaker 1>expecting certain guys to be wearing certain numbers, But that'll

0:25:34.480 --> 0:25:36.520
<v Speaker 1>change really quickly as you, like I said, you go

0:25:36.600 --> 0:25:38.480
<v Speaker 1>through your game plan and you circle the four guys

0:25:38.560 --> 0:25:41.280
<v Speaker 1>that you're worried about every week, and you'll know exactly

0:25:41.359 --> 0:25:44.640
<v Speaker 1>what numbers they're wearing and what you expect to call

0:25:44.720 --> 0:25:48.520
<v Speaker 1>out and who's who's considered what. So. Yeah, I think

0:25:48.520 --> 0:25:51.840
<v Speaker 1>anytime change happens, we worry about it and we think

0:25:51.840 --> 0:25:54.520
<v Speaker 1>it's going to affect us. But I mean, you know,

0:25:54.600 --> 0:25:56.760
<v Speaker 1>come on, last year they played in front of no fans,

0:25:57.160 --> 0:25:59.280
<v Speaker 1>and so you know you had to figure out how

0:25:59.320 --> 0:26:01.480
<v Speaker 1>to get your self amped up for that. We'll figure

0:26:01.480 --> 0:26:04.320
<v Speaker 1>out how to call a linebacker that's wearing number twelve

0:26:04.960 --> 0:26:08.520
<v Speaker 1>or whatever, and we'll move on. You know what's interesting

0:26:08.560 --> 0:26:11.040
<v Speaker 1>about it? Go ahead, Paul, Oh sorry, well go ahead.

0:26:11.720 --> 0:26:15.440
<v Speaker 1>What's interesting too is listen the Arizonal Cardinals. They brought

0:26:15.520 --> 0:26:18.320
<v Speaker 1>in a lot of grizzled veterans, Kirk As you well know,

0:26:18.520 --> 0:26:22.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, JJ Watt, of course, Malcolm Butler, AJ Green,

0:26:22.960 --> 0:26:26.720
<v Speaker 1>bringing Rodney Hudson, bringing these guys into this locker room

0:26:26.800 --> 0:26:29.960
<v Speaker 1>right here. To me, that is a culture shift that

0:26:30.200 --> 0:26:32.359
<v Speaker 1>is going to happen inside that locker room. Can you

0:26:32.480 --> 0:26:36.200
<v Speaker 1>talk on that and speak on that at all, Kirk, Yeah,

0:26:36.440 --> 0:26:40.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean anytime you have you know, great leaders, guys

0:26:40.480 --> 0:26:42.040
<v Speaker 1>that have been there, Guys that have played at a

0:26:42.080 --> 0:26:44.280
<v Speaker 1>certain level, Guys that walk into the locker room and

0:26:44.400 --> 0:26:50.000
<v Speaker 1>already have a level of success or respect that goes

0:26:50.080 --> 0:26:52.760
<v Speaker 1>with their name. Those are things that you know are

0:26:52.840 --> 0:26:55.879
<v Speaker 1>extremely valuable. All I would say is that at the

0:26:56.000 --> 0:26:58.440
<v Speaker 1>end of the day, though, those guys are going to

0:26:58.520 --> 0:27:01.720
<v Speaker 1>have to be healthy on the field making plays, and

0:27:02.240 --> 0:27:04.200
<v Speaker 1>that's what this is going to come down to. I'm

0:27:04.200 --> 0:27:07.080
<v Speaker 1>not going to question JJ Watt as a man and

0:27:07.160 --> 0:27:09.240
<v Speaker 1>a man of character and what he's done in this league,

0:27:09.800 --> 0:27:11.520
<v Speaker 1>but I need to know that he's going to be

0:27:11.600 --> 0:27:14.800
<v Speaker 1>out there with me every day and that he's truly

0:27:14.880 --> 0:27:18.240
<v Speaker 1>a part of this culture, and that to me is

0:27:18.800 --> 0:27:20.560
<v Speaker 1>going to be the biggest question. You know, AJ Green

0:27:20.640 --> 0:27:23.280
<v Speaker 1>and Malcolm on one year deals, you know, what does

0:27:23.359 --> 0:27:25.240
<v Speaker 1>that look like? How are they able to come in

0:27:25.440 --> 0:27:28.800
<v Speaker 1>and really become leaders on this team? And more importantly

0:27:28.880 --> 0:27:31.680
<v Speaker 1>that the issues have been injuries with guys like AJ

0:27:31.920 --> 0:27:36.359
<v Speaker 1>and JJ as of late, and so bottom line, it

0:27:36.400 --> 0:27:38.320
<v Speaker 1>doesn't matter what you bring to the table if you're

0:27:38.359 --> 0:27:40.600
<v Speaker 1>not out there with us, and you're not able to

0:27:40.680 --> 0:27:44.480
<v Speaker 1>play and you're going through an injury, it's a completely

0:27:44.520 --> 0:27:47.320
<v Speaker 1>different dynamic. So I like what they've done. I like

0:27:47.480 --> 0:27:50.840
<v Speaker 1>the veteran leadership that will be in that locker room.

0:27:51.400 --> 0:27:52.560
<v Speaker 1>But I think at the end of the day, this

0:27:52.680 --> 0:27:55.320
<v Speaker 1>is going to all be weighed by how much those

0:27:55.400 --> 0:27:58.240
<v Speaker 1>guys play, what kind of impact they have at this

0:27:58.480 --> 0:28:03.600
<v Speaker 1>stage in their career, you know, comparatively to what they've

0:28:03.640 --> 0:28:06.600
<v Speaker 1>had the last couple years in other places. And obviously

0:28:06.680 --> 0:28:09.720
<v Speaker 1>the reason why they were available is because they just

0:28:09.840 --> 0:28:12.520
<v Speaker 1>hadn't played up to their potential, and a big part

0:28:12.560 --> 0:28:14.480
<v Speaker 1>of that has been injuries and not being able to

0:28:14.560 --> 0:28:18.119
<v Speaker 1>stay healthy to compete at the level that we had

0:28:18.119 --> 0:28:21.679
<v Speaker 1>grown accustomed to. But man, let's hope they hit the lottery, right,

0:28:21.760 --> 0:28:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Let's hope these guys stay healthy, because I believe AJ

0:28:25.000 --> 0:28:27.000
<v Speaker 1>can still play. I know JJ can still play. He

0:28:27.080 --> 0:28:29.439
<v Speaker 1>played at a high level at times last year. Malcolm

0:28:29.480 --> 0:28:32.359
<v Speaker 1>Butler can play. I mean, all those guys, And so

0:28:32.640 --> 0:28:35.800
<v Speaker 1>that's what you're hoping as you go all in that, Man,

0:28:35.920 --> 0:28:38.880
<v Speaker 1>we get lucky for this one year and we get

0:28:38.960 --> 0:28:41.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of the best of everything melding together along with

0:28:42.000 --> 0:28:44.600
<v Speaker 1>our young talent and now we've got a chance to

0:28:44.680 --> 0:28:47.200
<v Speaker 1>maybe do something and Kurt, let's wrap it up. Give

0:28:47.240 --> 0:28:49.960
<v Speaker 1>us a quick thumbnail on QB Confidential. I've seen it

0:28:50.040 --> 0:28:53.720
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter. At QB Confidential. You tell us you know,

0:28:54.400 --> 0:28:58.440
<v Speaker 1>for example, this Zach Wilson today, you mentioned about his athleticism,

0:28:58.480 --> 0:29:00.640
<v Speaker 1>but you said you weren't talking about how far he

0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:02.600
<v Speaker 1>can throw it or how fast he can run. You

0:29:02.640 --> 0:29:06.840
<v Speaker 1>were talking about other rare and special moments. Right, yeah,

0:29:07.040 --> 0:29:09.920
<v Speaker 1>you talk about quarterback athleticism. Is that I always tell

0:29:09.960 --> 0:29:13.800
<v Speaker 1>people when I try to evaluate quarterbacks, I don't evaluate

0:29:14.280 --> 0:29:17.320
<v Speaker 1>their athletic ability because a I never had it, So

0:29:17.480 --> 0:29:21.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how to truly evaluate it and correlate

0:29:21.400 --> 0:29:24.920
<v Speaker 1>it and then be I don't know how that translates.

0:29:24.960 --> 0:29:28.960
<v Speaker 1>I know how processing information and how accuracy can translate

0:29:29.040 --> 0:29:31.760
<v Speaker 1>from college to the pros. I don't know how running

0:29:31.800 --> 0:29:34.720
<v Speaker 1>a four three translates. I don't know if you're a

0:29:34.800 --> 0:29:37.120
<v Speaker 1>good enough athlete because you do some of these things

0:29:37.440 --> 0:29:39.920
<v Speaker 1>to make it translate to be like Lamar Jackson at

0:29:39.920 --> 0:29:42.080
<v Speaker 1>the NFL. So I don't even look at that stuff.

0:29:42.120 --> 0:29:44.680
<v Speaker 1>But I look at quarterback athleticism and the ability to

0:29:44.760 --> 0:29:46.680
<v Speaker 1>move in the pocket, the ability to understand how to

0:29:46.760 --> 0:29:49.760
<v Speaker 1>make different throws, to be on different platforms and all

0:29:49.840 --> 0:29:53.080
<v Speaker 1>that stuff. But you know, as you talk about quarterback Confidential,

0:29:53.160 --> 0:29:57.360
<v Speaker 1>quarterback Confidential actually was something that It's something that I've

0:29:57.400 --> 0:29:59.160
<v Speaker 1>wanted to do for a long time because I've wanted

0:29:59.160 --> 0:30:02.800
<v Speaker 1>to be able to share my knowledge and experience with

0:30:03.000 --> 0:30:06.920
<v Speaker 1>the masses, and with the masses, I mean quarterbacks at

0:30:07.000 --> 0:30:09.600
<v Speaker 1>all different levels, you know, because I do high school coaching,

0:30:09.680 --> 0:30:12.480
<v Speaker 1>I do individual coaching for college and pro guys. But

0:30:12.520 --> 0:30:15.640
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to have a larger reach for the quarterback

0:30:15.720 --> 0:30:18.000
<v Speaker 1>position because I believe I'd bring a lot of value

0:30:18.280 --> 0:30:20.880
<v Speaker 1>and I wanted to impact young coaches. I wanted to

0:30:21.000 --> 0:30:23.240
<v Speaker 1>invest in young coaches because I think I have a

0:30:23.360 --> 0:30:27.160
<v Speaker 1>unique knowledge of the game and of offensive football and

0:30:27.240 --> 0:30:31.080
<v Speaker 1>the why behind the game. And so I've always wanted

0:30:31.120 --> 0:30:33.160
<v Speaker 1>to do it, and I've been limited to, you know,

0:30:33.200 --> 0:30:35.720
<v Speaker 1>the three or four quarterbacks I have in high school,

0:30:35.800 --> 0:30:37.800
<v Speaker 1>or the four or five that'll come work with me

0:30:38.280 --> 0:30:41.360
<v Speaker 1>in the off season from the other levels. And when

0:30:41.400 --> 0:30:44.400
<v Speaker 1>the pandemic hit a year ago and my offseason schedule

0:30:44.560 --> 0:30:48.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of came to a halt like everybody else's, I said,

0:30:48.800 --> 0:30:51.800
<v Speaker 1>here's the perfect opportunity for me to dive in and

0:30:52.000 --> 0:30:55.040
<v Speaker 1>do something that I've wanted to do. So I created

0:30:55.120 --> 0:31:00.280
<v Speaker 1>Quarterback Confidential, which is a teaching and instruction platform that's

0:31:00.360 --> 0:31:03.200
<v Speaker 1>laid out in five different components. So I have a

0:31:03.360 --> 0:31:06.480
<v Speaker 1>component called Blackboard Breakdowns where it's all about football IQ.

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:09.800
<v Speaker 1>Everything from you know, recognizing a box count, to how

0:31:09.880 --> 0:31:13.080
<v Speaker 1>we call defenses, to reading defenses, to how we you know,

0:31:13.160 --> 0:31:17.040
<v Speaker 1>look at certain plays, but just building football IQ from

0:31:17.080 --> 0:31:19.720
<v Speaker 1>an offensive perspective. I go on the field and talk

0:31:19.800 --> 0:31:22.400
<v Speaker 1>quarterback technique, which is so important to me, and I

0:31:22.440 --> 0:31:24.960
<v Speaker 1>think there's so many kids out there that that can't

0:31:24.960 --> 0:31:27.640
<v Speaker 1>afford the guru or they're with people that don't really

0:31:27.760 --> 0:31:29.920
<v Speaker 1>know how to teach it. It's a great tool I

0:31:30.000 --> 0:31:32.320
<v Speaker 1>think for them to learn or for coaches to learn

0:31:32.360 --> 0:31:35.200
<v Speaker 1>how to coach it. I go inside the playbook, which

0:31:35.240 --> 0:31:38.520
<v Speaker 1>is probably my greatest passion, and just talk about the why.

0:31:38.640 --> 0:31:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I say that every every play has its own story.

0:31:41.880 --> 0:31:43.640
<v Speaker 1>You know who we're trying to throw to and what

0:31:43.800 --> 0:31:45.760
<v Speaker 1>the timing of it is, and why we run routes

0:31:45.800 --> 0:31:48.560
<v Speaker 1>to certain ways. I have the film study as you

0:31:48.640 --> 0:31:50.440
<v Speaker 1>talk about, which I call Study Ball, which is my

0:31:50.560 --> 0:31:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Friday segment where I'd kind of dive into NFL playbooks

0:31:53.960 --> 0:31:58.240
<v Speaker 1>who are top level playbooks and really talk through different

0:31:58.400 --> 0:32:01.520
<v Speaker 1>schemes and IQs, and I find all of that stuff.

0:32:01.600 --> 0:32:03.280
<v Speaker 1>But things that I love to do is looking at

0:32:03.320 --> 0:32:05.280
<v Speaker 1>the pros and breaking it down. And then I have

0:32:05.480 --> 0:32:08.560
<v Speaker 1>another component called outside the Box, which is me just

0:32:08.680 --> 0:32:12.320
<v Speaker 1>taking my story and lessons that I've learned along the

0:32:12.400 --> 0:32:15.320
<v Speaker 1>way and through my journey and sharing it with people

0:32:15.360 --> 0:32:18.360
<v Speaker 1>to kind of build a mindset of excellence. And so

0:32:19.120 --> 0:32:20.680
<v Speaker 1>the way I've got it laid out for the first

0:32:20.800 --> 0:32:23.840
<v Speaker 1>year is kind of curriculum type form is where you know,

0:32:23.920 --> 0:32:27.880
<v Speaker 1>Mondays you get one, Tuesdays, you get one Wednesdays, Thursday's, Fridays.

0:32:28.320 --> 0:32:30.840
<v Speaker 1>Each of those different segments comes one day a week

0:32:31.040 --> 0:32:33.280
<v Speaker 1>and you'll get them every week for fifty two weeks

0:32:34.080 --> 0:32:37.120
<v Speaker 1>on that day of the week each week, and it's

0:32:37.240 --> 0:32:39.640
<v Speaker 1>built so you kind of start with the foundation and

0:32:39.720 --> 0:32:42.080
<v Speaker 1>then you grow from there. And I just I mean

0:32:42.360 --> 0:32:46.200
<v Speaker 1>it's I think it's a great investment for any coach

0:32:46.800 --> 0:32:49.400
<v Speaker 1>or any player or even any fan. And I've had

0:32:49.400 --> 0:32:52.440
<v Speaker 1>a number of analysis analysts that I've sent the stuff

0:32:52.480 --> 0:32:55.760
<v Speaker 1>to and they love it because it takes them inside

0:32:55.840 --> 0:32:58.640
<v Speaker 1>the game from a quarterbacks perspective, which we know so

0:32:58.800 --> 0:33:01.800
<v Speaker 1>much of the game comes from that perspective, and there's

0:33:01.880 --> 0:33:04.960
<v Speaker 1>so much great content on it. So I'm excited about

0:33:05.000 --> 0:33:07.560
<v Speaker 1>it because I just want to invest in the next

0:33:07.640 --> 0:33:11.320
<v Speaker 1>generation and invest in our game, and this tool, I

0:33:11.400 --> 0:33:14.040
<v Speaker 1>think is something that anybody and everybody can can gain

0:33:14.160 --> 0:33:19.520
<v Speaker 1>something from. The price is almost minimal when you look

0:33:19.560 --> 0:33:21.320
<v Speaker 1>at what's out there for what you're going to get,

0:33:21.720 --> 0:33:24.160
<v Speaker 1>and so just encouraging everybody. I mean, you can follow

<v Speaker 1>from there. But I just I don't think anybody's going

0:33:42.040 --> 0:33:44.880
<v Speaker 1>to get on it and not like the different information

0:33:44.960 --> 0:33:46.840
<v Speaker 1>on there. I think everybody can learn from it. And

0:33:47.200 --> 0:33:49.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm just excited about it because I finally got the

0:33:49.120 --> 0:33:53.640
<v Speaker 1>opportunity to build something that I believe can touch the

0:33:53.720 --> 0:33:56.680
<v Speaker 1>masses now but also something that can live for the

0:33:56.800 --> 0:33:59.640
<v Speaker 1>long term and can allow you know, the things I

0:33:59.800 --> 0:34:01.680
<v Speaker 1>learned in this game and what this game gave me

0:34:02.280 --> 0:34:04.800
<v Speaker 1>to be able to to pass that on to other people. Yeah,

0:34:04.920 --> 0:34:06.800
<v Speaker 1>you know what, Kurt. Thank you so much. Man. I'm

0:34:06.840 --> 0:34:11.040

<v Speaker 1>I ruly you are pretty like three segments. Bless you.

0:34:14.239 --> 0:34:16.360
<v Speaker 1>And Kurt Wolf wanted me to ask you about larrying

0:34:16.440 --> 0:34:18.560
<v Speaker 1>his decision. I told him no, so you can. You

0:34:18.560 --> 0:34:20.880
<v Speaker 1>can thank you later on that We amend of that.

0:34:21.040 --> 0:34:25.719
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate you guys. All right, guys stick here Kurt

0:34:25.800 --> 0:34:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Warner at QB Confidential back right after this breaking news,

0:34:33.160 --> 0:34:37.160
<v Speaker 1>J J. Watt is going to the desert. WHOA, that

0:34:37.360 --> 0:34:39.480
<v Speaker 1>is not photos? I know, he said. Adam Schefter just

0:34:39.600 --> 0:34:44.560
<v Speaker 1>reported it. Wow. The first thing I did was take

0:34:44.600 --> 0:34:48.759
<v Speaker 1>a look at the tape and quickly realized that J. J.

0:34:48.920 --> 0:34:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Watt still looked like J. J. Watt in my opinion

0:34:52.920 --> 0:35:01.799
<v Speaker 1>on that when he walks on the field, he don't

0:35:01.840 --> 0:35:03.800
<v Speaker 1>think there's anybody in the readA better than here. It

0:35:03.840 --> 0:35:06.719
<v Speaker 1>feels like the Arizona Cardinals are going all in. We

0:35:06.840 --> 0:35:09.680
<v Speaker 1>had the opportunities to make some reason to be aggressive.

0:35:09.880 --> 0:35:11.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's business at the end of the day,

0:35:11.760 --> 0:35:14.600
<v Speaker 1>and you know things going to change to get traded

0:35:14.640 --> 0:35:17.439
<v Speaker 1>to Arizona it's a pleas of anyone to the best

0:35:17.520 --> 0:35:20.880
<v Speaker 1>days of my life a little different, figure different. There

0:35:20.920 --> 0:35:23.200
<v Speaker 1>isn't enough energy in the value already. We're gonna try

0:35:23.200 --> 0:35:27.040

<v Speaker 1>edition of Cardinals Flight Plan. We're talking going behind the

0:35:54.360 --> 0:35:57.840
<v Speaker 1>scenes of the Cardinals offseason, free agency, draft prep and

0:35:58.200 --> 0:36:00.759

<v Speaker 1>the hour, YouTube dot com slash as Cardinals. When we

0:36:03.640 --> 0:36:06.320
<v Speaker 1>come back, we'll hear some more about what the Cardinals

0:36:06.400 --> 0:36:09.200
<v Speaker 1>said about what direction they might go in the NFL

0:36:09.320 --> 0:36:11.279
<v Speaker 1>Draft a week from tonight, as we continue with the

0:36:11.320 --> 0:36:14.359
<v Speaker 1>Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford and Gilbert Yeah,

0:36:21.960 --> 0:36:25.200
<v Speaker 1>all right, mister J. J. Watt, Captain America known in

0:36:25.280 --> 0:36:28.320
<v Speaker 1>these parts, what I see is a guy who leaves

0:36:28.360 --> 0:36:31.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot now on just the things he's seen in life.

0:36:31.200 --> 0:36:34.279
<v Speaker 1>His technique is impeccable, and you have to do that

0:36:34.360 --> 0:36:37.920
<v Speaker 1>because far the time is undefeated. It's funny everybody in

0:36:37.920 --> 0:36:41.080
<v Speaker 1>the NFL wanted J. J. Watt, the Arizona Blessed to

0:36:41.120 --> 0:36:43.239
<v Speaker 1>give him. Oh he's old, he can't play no more.

0:36:43.520 --> 0:36:46.320
<v Speaker 1>This guy still can play football in the NFL, and

0:36:46.400 --> 0:36:49.719
<v Speaker 1>he could play at a high level. And that's just

0:36:49.840 --> 0:36:52.880
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. Just one clip from season four, episode

0:36:52.920 --> 0:36:55.879
<v Speaker 1>one of Cardinals Flight Plan debuts top of the hour

0:36:56.040 --> 0:36:59.160
<v Speaker 1>and the YouTube channel YouTube dot com slash as Cardinals

0:36:59.200 --> 0:37:01.600
<v Speaker 1>and Wolf. I think you will agree we're all better

0:37:01.680 --> 0:37:04.200
<v Speaker 1>off the more we get in here. From d line

0:37:04.239 --> 0:37:08.440
<v Speaker 1>coach Brentson Buckner, he is always he has always good content,

0:37:08.560 --> 0:37:12.320
<v Speaker 1>especially when you put the clicker in his hand. Look out. Yeah, absolutely, Pally,

0:37:12.440 --> 0:37:15.160
<v Speaker 1>and not only that too, he's so right on JJ Watt.

0:37:15.280 --> 0:37:17.600
<v Speaker 1>J J. Watt is a guy that I was shocked

0:37:17.640 --> 0:37:19.319
<v Speaker 1>when I put the tape on and I looked at

0:37:19.440 --> 0:37:22.200
<v Speaker 1>last season. Bally. We know he's been banged up over

0:37:22.280 --> 0:37:25.239
<v Speaker 1>the last five years, right, But when I put the

0:37:25.360 --> 0:37:29.520
<v Speaker 1>tape on and watched JJ Watt play, I was really

0:37:29.840 --> 0:37:33.439
<v Speaker 1>pleasantly surprised at how he looked. He looked really good.

0:37:34.120 --> 0:37:37.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean he led the NFL and tackles for loss

0:37:37.160 --> 0:37:40.400
<v Speaker 1>against the run. Think about that, right, He had seventeen

0:37:40.520 --> 0:37:44.120
<v Speaker 1>quarterback hits that would have led the Arizona Cardinals. Last year.

0:37:44.480 --> 0:37:47.600
<v Speaker 1>He led the NFL in drawing double teams as well.

0:37:47.800 --> 0:37:52.520
<v Speaker 1>So right, right, right, so right there, you know, with

0:37:52.719 --> 0:37:57.080
<v Speaker 1>Chandler Jones and Isaiah Simmons and Buddha Baker are all distracting,

0:37:57.239 --> 0:38:01.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, offensive fronts, and we're all very curious obviously

0:38:01.200 --> 0:38:03.279
<v Speaker 1>to see what JJ Watt is all about this year. Now,

0:38:04.040 --> 0:38:08.200
<v Speaker 1>as for as for the press conference earlier today Cliff Kingsbury,

0:38:08.360 --> 0:38:11.280
<v Speaker 1>did you catch the moment where he was asked about

0:38:11.320 --> 0:38:14.480
<v Speaker 1>the fact that the Rams have tried to one up

0:38:14.520 --> 0:38:17.319
<v Speaker 1>Cliff Kingsbury's pad on Draft night, which stole the NFL

0:38:17.400 --> 0:38:19.000
<v Speaker 1>draft a year ago, as we know his place in

0:38:19.040 --> 0:38:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Paradise Valley. The drafts have gone the Rams have gone

0:38:21.960 --> 0:38:24.480
<v Speaker 1>ahead and they set up their draft war room in

0:38:24.560 --> 0:38:28.799
<v Speaker 1>a Malibu beach house, and Cliff Kingsbury was asked about that. Yeah,

0:38:28.840 --> 0:38:31.799
<v Speaker 1>I really think it's just employed by McVeigh to allow

0:38:31.880 --> 0:38:34.239
<v Speaker 1>himself the opportunity to take your shirt off again and

0:38:34.360 --> 0:38:39.000
<v Speaker 1>jump in the pool like he did on Hard knocks Price,

0:38:39.080 --> 0:38:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Sibilo Rose dip in the ocean and make some draft

0:38:42.560 --> 0:38:44.799
<v Speaker 1>picks a thing more than anything. He had that up

0:38:44.840 --> 0:38:47.879
<v Speaker 1>so it should be fun to watch. Here's the metaphorical

0:38:48.000 --> 0:38:51.160
<v Speaker 1>protective cup. Why aren't two slided in? That was good stuff.

0:38:51.200 --> 0:38:53.840
<v Speaker 1>Now those two are really good friends. And if you remember,

0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:56.840
<v Speaker 1>shortly after Cliff Kingsbury was hired, he had a dinner

0:38:57.120 --> 0:39:00.839
<v Speaker 1>with Patrick Mahomes and McVay played the practical joke on him,

0:39:01.239 --> 0:39:04.080
<v Speaker 1>texting Cliff Kingsbury that he was in violation of NFL

0:39:04.239 --> 0:39:08.040
<v Speaker 1>rules by having by having dinner with an opposing quarterback,

0:39:08.120 --> 0:39:09.879
<v Speaker 1>and Roger Goodell was going to find him and strip

0:39:09.960 --> 0:39:12.800
<v Speaker 1>the Cardinals of draft picks. So that Cliff Kingsbury was

0:39:12.800 --> 0:39:15.360
<v Speaker 1>getting back at Sean McVeigh there a little bit. And

0:39:15.520 --> 0:39:18.520
<v Speaker 1>then so the Cardinals tweeted out Wolf and they tweeted

0:39:18.560 --> 0:39:20.920
<v Speaker 1>out that sound by we just heard with a simple caption,

0:39:21.040 --> 0:39:25.120
<v Speaker 1>We're onto you at rams NFL. The Ramsen responded about

0:39:25.160 --> 0:39:27.320
<v Speaker 1>an hour later and said, if you want an invite,

0:39:27.880 --> 0:39:31.520
<v Speaker 1>just say so smiley face. And it's a picture of

0:39:31.680 --> 0:39:35.240
<v Speaker 1>Cliff Kingsbury with his shirt off at a beach party

0:39:35.640 --> 0:39:38.759
<v Speaker 1>with a bunch of other guys and so it's going

0:39:38.880 --> 0:39:41.800
<v Speaker 1>back and forth, and as our Jim, I'm under and

0:39:41.840 --> 0:39:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Cody Fincher just informed us. The Seahawks got in on

0:39:44.480 --> 0:39:47.120
<v Speaker 1>the action and they said, we don't need an ocean

0:39:47.200 --> 0:39:49.320
<v Speaker 1>to take our shirts off, and they tweeted out a

0:39:49.360 --> 0:39:53.399
<v Speaker 1>picture of DK Metcalf and coached double Rainbow when DK

0:39:53.600 --> 0:39:56.120
<v Speaker 1>Metcalf walked in with his shirt off during the draft

0:39:56.200 --> 0:39:59.840
<v Speaker 1>combine interviews last season, and then all of a sudden,

0:40:00.200 --> 0:40:02.279
<v Speaker 1>seventy year old Pete Carroll takes off his shirt and

0:40:02.360 --> 0:40:04.239
<v Speaker 1>nobody needed to see that, you know, too bad. It

0:40:04.360 --> 0:40:07.520
<v Speaker 1>wasn't that amicable on the field, Paul right, And I

0:40:07.640 --> 0:40:10.080
<v Speaker 1>say that tongue in cheek, of course, because we love

0:40:10.200 --> 0:40:14.640
<v Speaker 1>the fact that it is a contested game. Every time

0:40:14.719 --> 0:40:17.080
<v Speaker 1>these guys play, they step in between those white lines,

0:40:17.120 --> 0:40:19.120
<v Speaker 1>are trying to actually drive somebody into the ground and

0:40:19.200 --> 0:40:22.200
<v Speaker 1>do it with malice. Of course, that's what we're supposed

0:40:22.239 --> 0:40:25.080
<v Speaker 1>to do. But it is kind of a light moment here,

0:40:25.280 --> 0:40:29.560
<v Speaker 1>the calm before the draft storm that is coming our way. Yeah,

0:40:29.719 --> 0:40:32.279
<v Speaker 1>speaking of the calm before the storm, you're moved now

0:40:32.360 --> 0:40:34.440
<v Speaker 1>forty nine ers, right, How are the Niners going to

0:40:34.480 --> 0:40:37.560
<v Speaker 1>get in on this? NFC West action. So so there

0:40:37.640 --> 0:40:41.120
<v Speaker 1>you go. Well, we'll see about it. And remember, the

0:40:41.280 --> 0:40:44.040
<v Speaker 1>Cardinals have yet to beat Sean McVay. He is eight

0:40:44.160 --> 0:40:47.480
<v Speaker 1>no against the Arizona Cardinals, So don't think that the

0:40:47.560 --> 0:40:50.719
<v Speaker 1>players aren't reminded of that. During the off season. There

0:40:50.840 --> 0:40:53.000
<v Speaker 1>was a great story had a chance to tell Kyle

0:40:53.120 --> 0:40:55.719
<v Speaker 1>Vannabosh and Carlos Dansby last night. For a while Wolf

0:40:55.800 --> 0:40:58.520
<v Speaker 1>and Bannabosh said that when he was with the Titans,

0:40:59.080 --> 0:41:01.880
<v Speaker 1>every single season they will put up a picture of

0:41:01.920 --> 0:41:04.960
<v Speaker 1>Peyton Manning. This Peyton Manning guys beat us like twelve

0:41:05.000 --> 0:41:08.759
<v Speaker 1>times in a row, and that was their motivation for

0:41:08.880 --> 0:41:11.920
<v Speaker 1>the entire defensive front, was to get after and payback

0:41:12.040 --> 0:41:14.440
<v Speaker 1>Peyton Manning. And when they did it, he cited that

0:41:14.600 --> 0:41:17.600
<v Speaker 1>as the biggest accomplishment and most rewarding moment of his

0:41:17.760 --> 0:41:20.840
<v Speaker 1>NFL career, No doubt about it, Paulie. They've got to

0:41:21.000 --> 0:41:23.640
<v Speaker 1>beat the Rams at some point in time going forward,

0:41:23.640 --> 0:41:26.000
<v Speaker 1>and I fully expect this is the year, paul This

0:41:26.239 --> 0:41:29.279
<v Speaker 1>is when they do it. We'll come back, we'll wrap

0:41:29.440 --> 0:41:31.920
<v Speaker 1>up this edition of the Big Red Rage, and we'll

0:41:31.920 --> 0:41:35.000
<v Speaker 1>tell you about a very special day in Arizona Cardinals history.

0:41:35.120 --> 0:41:37.200
<v Speaker 1>It is a big red rage presented by Satan Pord

0:41:37.239 --> 0:41:45.640
<v Speaker 1>and Gilbert we Are Santanford. Huge play by Pat Tilman.

0:41:45.719 --> 0:41:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Whatever you're gonna do, you should be passionate. Matter of why?

0:41:48.680 --> 0:41:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Why do it? By Pat Tilman. Damn Tilman delivers the blow.

0:41:55.640 --> 0:41:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Tilmann was there for. A rushed back there by Pat Tilman.

0:41:59.320 --> 0:42:01.279
<v Speaker 1>Pat Tilman the play. I don't know. I get a

0:42:01.320 --> 0:42:03.840
<v Speaker 1>lot of satisfaction out of, like, you know, my family

0:42:04.080 --> 0:42:08.080
<v Speaker 1>being proud of me, my brothers. You know, I care

0:42:08.160 --> 0:42:10.279
<v Speaker 1>what they think and how they feel, and I want

0:42:10.360 --> 0:42:12.600
<v Speaker 1>them to be proud of what I'm doing. Pat Tilban

0:42:13.080 --> 0:42:15.279
<v Speaker 1>talk about a guy with a lot of heart. That's

0:42:15.320 --> 0:42:18.600
<v Speaker 1>what Tillman is all about. Huge play by Pat Tillman.

0:42:18.760 --> 0:42:21.680
<v Speaker 1>For whatever reason, I you know, I have a patriotic

0:42:21.719 --> 0:42:39.120
<v Speaker 1>bone to me, American hero Pat Tillman. And for those

0:42:39.160 --> 0:42:41.319
<v Speaker 1>of us who have been here a while in the AC,

0:42:42.120 --> 0:42:45.600
<v Speaker 1>I think we all remember exactly where we were when

0:42:45.680 --> 0:42:48.400
<v Speaker 1>we learned the news that Pat Tillman had lost his

0:42:48.520 --> 0:42:51.719
<v Speaker 1>life defending his country. I know Darren Urban wrote about

0:42:51.719 --> 0:42:55.280
<v Speaker 1>it at Acy Cardinals dot com. I bavily remember morning

0:42:55.400 --> 0:42:59.959
<v Speaker 1>Radio kta R newsroom news came down, just utter shot.

0:43:01.080 --> 0:43:03.160
<v Speaker 1>We weren't even truly aware at that point the Pat

0:43:03.480 --> 0:43:06.560
<v Speaker 1>had gone back and had decided to re enlist. That

0:43:06.760 --> 0:43:08.880
<v Speaker 1>was his choice to re enlist and go back and

0:43:09.640 --> 0:43:13.160
<v Speaker 1>and and defend the United States of America. And will

0:43:13.360 --> 0:43:17.840
<v Speaker 1>you know it's it's the seventeenth anniversary of the passing

0:43:17.880 --> 0:43:20.080
<v Speaker 1>of Pat Tillman. And and you know there was a

0:43:20.160 --> 0:43:21.680
<v Speaker 1>car that was handed out at the funeral and Darren

0:43:21.800 --> 0:43:25.040
<v Speaker 1>Urban cited it and the line goes like this, every

0:43:25.080 --> 0:43:29.680
<v Speaker 1>man dies, not every man really lives. And does that

0:43:29.840 --> 0:43:32.839
<v Speaker 1>not sum up Pat Tilman? Yeah, Paul, you know a Pat.

0:43:33.200 --> 0:43:36.840
<v Speaker 1>The Pat Tillman story alone, it asked the question. It

0:43:37.000 --> 0:43:39.880
<v Speaker 1>demands a response from every one of us. When you

0:43:40.040 --> 0:43:44.960
<v Speaker 1>hear Pat's story, it's who are you? And how are

0:43:45.040 --> 0:43:48.279
<v Speaker 1>you living your life? It's like you you have to

0:43:48.440 --> 0:43:52.480
<v Speaker 1>ask yourself that question when you hear the Pat Tillman

0:43:52.600 --> 0:43:56.000
<v Speaker 1>story and what it is that he was all about

0:43:56.080 --> 0:43:59.360
<v Speaker 1>and what he did with his life. And don't forget

0:43:59.560 --> 0:44:02.640
<v Speaker 1>we're a week away from the NFL draft. Pat Tillman,

0:44:02.680 --> 0:44:06.200
<v Speaker 1>despite being the PAC ten Defensive Player of the Year,

0:44:07.040 --> 0:44:11.040
<v Speaker 1>was a seventh round pick. He was a tweener and Wolf,

0:44:11.120 --> 0:44:12.960
<v Speaker 1>you were a training camp. I was a training camp.

0:44:13.080 --> 0:44:15.880
<v Speaker 1>We watched the rookie Pat Tilman, and his strategy was,

0:44:16.000 --> 0:44:19.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to hit anything that moves, doesn't matter if

0:44:19.200 --> 0:44:21.920
<v Speaker 1>the drill is half speed, I'm going full speed, and

0:44:22.040 --> 0:44:24.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm just gonna play with more passion than anyone else

0:44:24.440 --> 0:44:27.279
<v Speaker 1>on the gridiron. And that's the way he lived his life.

0:44:27.520 --> 0:44:32.120
<v Speaker 1>He got everybody's attention, did he not? And Paul Season
