You conquered a win 52 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: again to what many consider consider a Super Bowl contender 53 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: in the Los Angeles Rams and come out with the 54 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: thirty seven to twenty victory in week four and a 55 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: lot to talk about. You know, the Cardinals have a 56 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: thousand and seven hundred and sixty two total yards of 57 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: offense through four weeks. That is the most enfranchise history, 58 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: fifth fifty fifteen ever two post thirty points and four 59 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: hundred plus yards of offense in each of the first 60 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: four weeks of the season and win all of those games. 61 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: So a lot has been trending upward for theirs in 62 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. Craig, what you know what happened yesterday? Like 63 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: what surprised you? You know what impressed you? It's just 64 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: so much to talk about. Everything surprised me. The final 65 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: score surprised me. But I'll go back to something you 66 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: said to start the show. As far as a four 67 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: game winning streak here on Morning Scramble, you just needed 68 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: to invite myself and Rolando onto the show much earlier, 69 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: and this would not have we wouldn't have had to 70 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: wait until this year. But look, I expected the Cardinals 71 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: to score points. I thought that this was going to 72 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: be a shootout. So what the offense did wasn't a 73 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: big surprise. It's what the defense was able to do. 74 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: I think that's the story. Shutting down Matthew Stafford, shutting 75 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: down Cooper Cup, you know, the reigning NFC Offensive Player 76 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: of the Week, the raigning NFC Offensive Player of the month. 77 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:05,559 Speaker 1: For me, it's defensively, that's that's two impressive wins now 78 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: against the Titans and the Rams on the road, two 79 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: offenses that many people believe we're going to be and 80 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: they might still be the best offenses or among the 81 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: best offenses in the NFL this year. So my hat's 82 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: off to defensive coordinator Vans, Joseph and Rolando. You know, 83 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: we'd like to include the burging the Red Sea. We 84 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: invite them to ask questions or share some of the comments. 85 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: And one of the comments that we got on the 86 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: Arizona Carder's Twitter page was someone asked for you to 87 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: talk about the offensive line. What worked? It seemed like 88 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: Kyler Mary had a clean podcat play at to play 89 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: aside from those three sacks, but other than that, he 90 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: seemed relatively untouched throughout the second half. Specifically he did, 91 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: and it was important. It was gonna be a tough matchup. 92 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: We all knew who was in front, and it was 93 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, number ninety nine. This guy is elite in 94 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: that he's in that category. I don't think there's another 95 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: talent like him in the NFL. And it was gonna 96 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: be a big week in protection scheme because we knew 97 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 1: we were kind of banged up on the right side, right, 98 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 1: and but maxcart see guys come on. Max finished off 99 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: the game in Jacksonville, and he had a great, great 100 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: game there and now starting again in his career, Max, 101 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: we kind of forget, but Max started a bunch of 102 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: games for the Broncos. I mean he was he was 103 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,679 Speaker 1: in the mix there. I really liked that Sean Coogler, 104 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: Hats off to him. He ran the ball towards Aaron 105 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: Donald and then kind of made him run away from 106 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: him as well. It kind of got him tired. I'll 107 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: be honest with you. The run game for the offensive line, 108 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: I think it's becoming, it's developing. It's in the work guys, 109 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: and I think we'll see a lot more of that. 110 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: That was something that we were kind of on and 111 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 1: off in the past couple of seasons, right because we 112 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: would talk about it. One week, all these guys ran 113 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: one hundred yards and then the next week they would 114 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: run fifteen yards or twenty yards or whatever. But I 115 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: think the tide has changed for the old line and 116 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 1: injection wise. I loved watching the highlights last night when 117 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: I got home because it was Kyler Murray from the Pocket, 118 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: guys from the Pocket being precise, making smart decisions and 119 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: being very accurate. So kudus to everybody on that offensive line. 120 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna, you know, merge well and once 121 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: we have more guys kind of you know, get get 122 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: getting more healthy. I think it's just going to develop 123 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: more this this protection scheme that you know, we knew 124 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: was going to be there at one point. I think 125 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: those five pancakes should go. One should go to each 126 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: offensive alignment for even though personally or you probably know 127 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: that they would probably each one five pancakes instead of one, 128 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: but I would give them one pancake and a brisket 129 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: each if they were to bisket each. That's the type 130 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: of job, excellent job that they that they had in 131 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: week four. And Jody, let me let me read you 132 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: some of the time of possession for both teams. Arizona 133 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: had thirty five minutes and the last of those Rams 134 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,679 Speaker 1: had about twenty five minutes of the time of possession. 135 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: That's a ten minute difference between the Arizona Cardinals and 136 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Rams. What'd you like from Cliff Kingsbury 137 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: yesterday that really impressed you from his play calling standpoint? Oh, 138 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: I mean, there was a lot a lot of smart 139 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: player calls definitely had the Rams confused, and I think 140 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: it was surgical when you look at the way the 141 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: Cardinals started out exploiting David Long with AJ Green. You know, 142 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: you go over the top, you have the Long touchdown. 143 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: You also have the touchdown to Max Williams. So you 144 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: look at the first four possessions for each team, Rams 145 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: went field goal, pick, touchdown, fumble, Cardinals went punt, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown. 146 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: Then you're not chasing the game, you know. It's like 147 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: Craig said, I'm even though this offense, I don't mean 148 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: to gloss over at what they're doing is incredibly difficult, 149 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: and they're doing it because they have such talent, right, 150 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: they have great talent, and they have a very neat quarterback. 151 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: They have a lot of weapons. But I was used 152 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: with the defense because they came out and they took 153 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: it to them, like Sean Coogler said earlier in the week, 154 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 1: take the fight to them. They were extremely physical, not 155 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: only up front but in the defensive backfield. To me, 156 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: that was the key to this game, the physicality by 157 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: the defensive backs, and the Cardinals also simply did not 158 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 1: turn over the ball. Rams had two almost three. If 159 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: Simmons doesn't get called there, Marco Wilson has a pick, 160 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: there's a lot to like, and Cliff Kingsbury. The play 161 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 1: calling just fed into all of that. But you have 162 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 1: to have good control of the game, can't be chasing, 163 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 1: and to me, that's for every head coach. And then 164 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: he went out and he executed play calls, and we're 165 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: going to talk about one of them in particular, which 166 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: I loved with the run game a little bit later. 167 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: But yeah, Philippe, there's so much good to talk about 168 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: in this game. The Cardinals I think proved to the 169 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: entire country that you know they're right up there, if 170 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: not the best team in the league, absolutely one of 171 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: the best teams in the league. And then Roland using 172 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: a touch on the state of the errors and the 173 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: Cardinals in the NFL and what people should look at 174 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: them and think, but you know they've there. That was impressive. 175 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you went to Sufi Stadium stadium where the 176 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 1: Rams haven't allowed any team to score more than thirty points, 177 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: and you put up thirty seven. I know, leading up 178 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: to this game, I said the time after time that 179 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: in order for the Cardinals to come out with the 180 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: victory from LA, their stars were going to have to 181 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: play like stars, and a lot of them did, and 182 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: some coaches even coached like stars. And I know Craig's 183 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: gonna get to one of them later on in the show. 184 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: But without further ado, let's get to our favorite moment 185 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: of the game, a moment that changed the tide. Now 186 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: that we're talking about Los Angeles, you guys see the 187 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: pun change the waves and everything. But hey, j let's 188 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: start with you because I know you mentioned that one 189 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 1: of the players that really you know hit the dagger, 190 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: you know, the Lebron James. What is that dagger for you? 191 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: I think Cardinals films felt good about it because in 192 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: this game, you know, when the Cardinals went up twenty 193 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 1: one to ten, I think everyone's feeling like, all right, 194 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: this is good. This is like they're turning the tide, 195 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: so to speak, like you said, turning the table, flipping 196 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: the script. But it was not until Chase Edmonds went 197 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: fifty four yards after the goal line stand, which you know, 198 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: there's a lot to talk about before that run happened, 199 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: which is why it definitely everything was set up for 200 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: the Cardinals prior to this run. But I love the 201 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: fact that the Rams appeared to think this was passed 202 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: all the way. Again, great play call, wide open space 203 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: for Chase Edmonds to go up the field. He had 204 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 1: a fantastic game, and you know, I don't know, I 205 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: think everyone could exhale a little bit after Chase round 206 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: and then they just ran the ball after that. It 207 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: was just a beautiful thing, and so Chase Edmonds on display, 208 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: great job with every aspect of that play, and I 209 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: just think that was another example of the Rams just 210 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 1: didn't know what to expect, you know. They they thought 211 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: this Cardinal team was going to be primarily doing things 212 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 1: through the air, and they just they were completely balanced 213 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: in this game when you look at the entirety of it. 214 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 1: Felipe so fantastic job and kudos to Chase Edmonds with 215 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: a huge game. Craig, how about you, what was your 216 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: jam in this game? Well, I'm gonna go to why 217 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: the Cardinals started that drive at the one yard line. 218 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: I like the goal line stand from Robert Alford stopping 219 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford. Maybe he did, maybe he didn't get in 220 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 1: Devon Kannard with a good stop. But my favorite play 221 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: was the fourth and goal. You can question the decision 222 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 1: to throw it, but that's what they did. And if 223 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: you watch that play and Tanner Vallejo didn't get credit 224 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: for a past breakup, but he was over there to 225 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: interfere with Tyler Higbee and unable to get that catch. 226 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: But the moment that ball is snapped, you watch Vallejo 227 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: he makes a bee line to the left pylon and 228 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 1: is right there for Higbee. And then if you pull back, 229 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: you got vance Joseph sprinting down the sideline because he 230 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 1: could see what was happening there to celebrate with his 231 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: guys and tender Vallejo, we don't talk a lot about him. 232 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: It's more of a special teams player, but he has 233 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: played good defense when called upon, and that play right 234 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: there to set up the chase Edmonds and that twelve 235 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: play ninety four yard drive. I liked the goal line 236 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: stand because it did show that the Cardinals more physical 237 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage than the Los Angeles Rams. 238 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: It showed character. I think that defense is stand and 239 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 1: I saw it from the get go. Once once they 240 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: put him a tenor byfl I said, he's he's got 241 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: to cover Higbee. There's no way they're going for me. 242 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,960 Speaker 1: As soon as you saw that, you know, going towards 243 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: the piline, I'm like, Okay, he's got a chance, and 244 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: he didn't. I'll be honest with you, I don't even 245 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: know if I think he's kind of interfered with like 246 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: the ball. I don't know if he even like grazed 247 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 1: it or touched it, but he was all over the 248 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: tight end. Tyler Higbee, I'll be honest with you. My 249 00:13:55,280 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: jam this week has to go to Lord Marcus Olden 250 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: forcing that fumble, I think was a statement everybody was 251 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: doing the dirty job because JJ had the nosebleed already, right, 252 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: because his callus on the nose was already opped out, 253 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: And you knew Chandler Jones was just measuring worth it. 254 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: I mean you could just see it. Every single play. 255 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: He was trying something else and he was trying to 256 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: pressure Matthew Stafford. But once he popped that ball out, 257 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: force that fumble. Jodey already mentioned it. Fourth the first 258 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: four possessions was field goal, punt, punt, forced fumble, and 259 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: that's when we got the ball back and converted it 260 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: into points. I think shortly after that, the RAM said, okay, 261 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: they were running ball effectively, Daryl Henderson Junior was running 262 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 1: the ball and they had to change it. They had 263 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: to change their game plan because they were under the scoreboard. 264 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: So they went back and they settled down, and they 265 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: went into pass sets, and that's when the defensive side became, 266 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: you know, more more aggressive with pressuring Matthew Stafford with 267 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: on the back in Buddha Baker JT JT was just 268 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: hitting everybody, guys, everybody that would cross his face. It 269 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: didn't matter if you got a penalty. He would just 270 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: smack him in the mouth. And I loved it. I 271 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: think it was an attitude that these guys brought to 272 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: so far stayed him. So for me, Philippe, Jody and 273 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: Craig my jam this we has to go to Marcus 274 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: Golden and that defense just spectacular. I know Craig is 275 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: going to talk about the job that events Joseph did, 276 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: but I mean, not that many people were talking about 277 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: the job they did against Matthew Stafford. I mean, if 278 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: you take a look, if you compare the stats from 279 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: Week three against the Super Bowl Chams Buccaneers, and you 280 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: compare the stats to Week four against Sarah's and the Cardinals, 281 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: I mean, well, what a difference. But my jam is 282 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: going to be that Kyler mary touchdown to Max Williams, 283 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: and that is because one he had a clean pocket. 284 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: Two they're continuously utilizing Max Williams as a past catching 285 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: tight end. I mean when have you heard that from 286 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: mcliff Kings very often? So the fact that they're continuously 287 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: finding ways to include Max Williams and their game plan 288 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: just it just adds another element to that offense. I mean, 289 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: think about it. And you already have DeAndre Hopkins her left, 290 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: you have aj Green Tier right, you have Christian Kirk 291 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: in the slot, you have that that duo of running 292 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: backs in the backfield, and Chase Edmonds James Conner, and 293 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: now you sprinkle in Max Williams. I mean that offense 294 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: has potential to be one of the best offenses in 295 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: the NFL in recent years, just thinking about all the 296 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: weapons that they have on that side of the Bob. 297 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: But I just like the clean pocket. I mean, you're 298 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: seeing Kyler Murray time after time a lot of these touchdowns. 299 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: If he's not rushing it him in, he's you know, 300 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: making these plays from the pocket. Kudos to Steve Time, 301 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: Kudos Cliff Keens. Ray because they continuously build around Kyler 302 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: Murray and his skill set. They continuously build around the 303 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: offensive weapon weapons that they have. And the fact that 304 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: he's been he's not getting sacked as much as he 305 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: was in his first two years, and even that wasn't 306 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: that much. But the fact that he's being touched a 307 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: lot of these runs that he's making just an incredible job. 308 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: But I think that touchdown pastor Mac Williams really summarizes 309 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 1: the juggernaut of an offense that this Cardinals uh is 310 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,239 Speaker 1: and has potential to be for years to come. So 311 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: that was my jam. I like, I felt like I 312 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 1: was the topping on your pancakes for Lando. The whip 313 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: came up there. That was that just you go straight 314 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: at it.

All right? 334 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: So again, so many good things happened on offense, but 335 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 1: I was kind of really wanting to target someone on 336 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: defense for this, and I debated a little bit with 337 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: Byron Murphy with that great pick again that that really 338 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: set a tone. Matthew Stafford then I think became a 339 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: little gun shy because Brian Murphy had great coverage right 340 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: there on DeShawn Jackson. Stafford even talked about it after 341 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,920 Speaker 1: the game, but I'm gonna go with Jalen Thompson because 342 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: and we talked at him a little bit already, ten 343 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: tackles on the scoresheet, five solo, five combined right there. 344 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 1: And then just the physicality that he brought. It was 345 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: a little later in the game, but there was a 346 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: play where Cooper Cup was going out for a pass 347 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: and he just he hit him, and you could tell 348 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: these guys were just done. They were not ready for 349 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: this physicality that the Arizona Cardinals brought to them, and 350 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: Jalen Thompson's play guys has been one of the key 351 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: factors in why this secondary has been so good. It's 352 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: not all about one guy. Yes, Marco Wilson, Robert Alford 353 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: and Byne Murphy are out on an island at times, 354 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 1: but guys were moving all over the field. Everyone was covering, 355 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: and you know, Jayalen Thompson was a great example of 356 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:48,199 Speaker 1: why I think this game was in control by this 357 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals defense. You look at the Rams, they weren't 358 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: able to do a lot early on, and I just 359 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,119 Speaker 1: want to give him a lot of credit because I 360 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: think he's still a little bit underrated. I think that's 361 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: going to go away as this season continues, because he 362 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: deserves a lot of credit and so does Vance Joseph. Though, right, Craig, 363 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to transition over to you and your player 364 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 1: of the game or maybe a coach of the game. Now, Jody, 365 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 1: I was told that this is acceptable. If it's not, 366 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: then I just blame Felipe. But you might get fine. 367 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: But you know, we might have to decide that later 368 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 1: in a court here in the morning scramble court. Too 369 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 1: much good happened defensively to single out any one player, 370 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 1: So I'm going to have to give my rise and 371 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 1: shine to Vance Joseph. It's it's it maybe not acceptable, 372 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: but for me what he has done and it's not 373 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: just what he did on Sunday, but this entire season 374 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: we talk about, you know, halftime adjustments. Well, Rolando, you 375 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: know that if you wait until halftime, you've waited too long. 376 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: It's the end game adjustments and as much leaking as 377 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: there was in the run game in that first quarter, 378 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 1: sixty eight rushing yards the rust of the game, the 379 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 1: Rams had fifty three fifty three rushing yards at the 380 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 1: end of the first quarter, and then the ability to 381 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 1: know they did not get a sack on Matthew Stafford, 382 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 1: but they made it very uncomfortable for him in the pocket. 383 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: He was pressured, he was hit, he was knocked off 384 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 1: his spot. All a credit to the players. They the 385 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 1: ones are that executed. But it's the game plan that 386 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: was set up by Vance Joseph and his entire coaching 387 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 1: staff throughout the week and it's something that we've seen 388 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: now all season long. Vance Joseph is doing a wonderful 389 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 1: job with the talent that he has on the field, 390 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: getting the players in position to make plays. Players make plays, 391 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: coaches coach. But for me, specifically against the Rams offense, 392 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: that was the talk of the league going into that game. 393 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: They were shut down, rendered non factors, Cooper Cup, Matthew Stafford. 394 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 1: So for me, it's a tip of the cap to 395 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: Vance Joseph Rolando, what about you. I like your pig 396 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 1: Vans Joseph, even though it's not a player the game, 397 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: he's a coach of the game. And just to emphasize 398 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: a little bit more on that, there was a player 399 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: Isa asked him and that blitz where he hit the 400 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 1: arm of a quarterback Matthew Stafford got in the air. 401 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: It was it was an It and t for the 402 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: Cardinal defense and he did hit him, but I think 403 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: he got him first in the arm Vans. Joseph was heated. 404 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: He wanted to talk to every single referee out there. 405 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: If either would have let him talk, he would have 406 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: put on that mic set and would he would have 407 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: called New York City or something. Man, this guy was 408 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: ready and he was ready to call that game, really passionate. 409 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: Everything worked out for him. But my player of the game, 410 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: I want to go with James Connor. Guys, two touchdowns 411 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: again in the red zone. I mean, this guy, once 412 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: we get down there, we get close inside the eight 413 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: five yard line, it's like, no brainer. Let's go with 414 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,440 Speaker 1: a big back. Let's go with a guy that's gonna 415 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: punch it in. And to be honest with you, the 416 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 1: first one he punched in behind Max Garcia was great 417 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: to watch. And Ronnie Hudson and Pugh and and these 418 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,640 Speaker 1: interior offensive linemen were just really dominating the front. That 419 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: that the rams were presented at that time, and that 420 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: that takes a toll on the defense. Once once you're back, 421 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: you're backed into your own end zone. It's like, come on, guys, 422 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: somebody make a play and it was just that offensive line, 423 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 1: you know, rolling through through the through the run game. 424 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: James Connor. I like his physicality. I like the way 425 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: he's he's always falling forward, right, falling forward in order 426 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: to get them, um, you know, more yards on the play. 427 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: And I think once the season goes by and a 428 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 1: no Chase and him have, you know, a great chemistry together. 429 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: They're really good friends and it's like, okay, we'll share 430 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: the rock whatever. Uh And and that's you. You have 431 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: to be a good teammate in order to accept that. 432 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: And I think as we roll into this month of October, 433 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: I definitely think James Connor is going to get those big, 434 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 1: those chunk runs eventually will come for this offensive line 435 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 1: and him. You guys got me so hyped up that 436 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: in the middle of your guys just dialogue, I want 437 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:09,199 Speaker 1: to go grab some gloves because my rising shine is 438 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. And every time he has a ball, I 439 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 1: feel like I can grab I can catch a pass two. 440 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: I mean, he's sharing the ball, he's finding a J. Green, 441 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 1: he's finding DeAndre Hopkins I touched on, he's finding Max 442 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: Williams obviously chase Edmons as a pass catcher. He's finding everybody. 443 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 1: So okay, one, I got you, bro. He just give 444 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,880 Speaker 1: me the ball too, you know, I'll promise I one drop, 445 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 1: maybe like a one yard, a little pitch or something 446 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,120 Speaker 1: like that, but still it'll count. But Kyler Murray, he's 447 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: been impressive. And one thing that really really ticks me 448 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 1: off or stresses me out, however you want to put it, 449 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,919 Speaker 1: is when you hear analysts on pregame shows, have time shows, 450 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: postgame shows talk about Kyler Murray. They always talk about 451 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: how he's so dangerous with his legs. But yeah, he's 452 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: number one in the NFL and completion completion percentage, he's 453 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: number two in passing yards. He has the fifth best 454 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: quarterback grading in the NFL. I mean, that's impressive. That's 455 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: a guy that's staying in the pocket. That's a guy 456 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: that when he does extend plays, he's looking to air 457 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: it out. So when people compare him to Lamar Jackson, 458 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: Michael Vick, Cam Newton to an extent, the one thing 459 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: that Kyler Murray has that those other guys don't necessarily 460 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,159 Speaker 1: had it or have it on a consistent basis is 461 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: his ability to make place from the pocket. And you're 462 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 1: seeing it this year more than ever. That's why I 463 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 1: put on these gloves because it makes me feel like 464 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 1: I can go out there and make a play for 465 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. So he's been impressive going heading into the week. 466 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: I said again, for the Cardinals to come out with 467 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 1: the victory from Hollywood, their stars have to play like stars. 468 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 1: And if there's one star that this team was depending 469 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: on the most. I know we touched on Bench Joseph. 470 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: I know Byron Murphy had another good game. I know 471 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 1: A J. Green had another good game, But honestly, we're 472 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,159 Speaker 1: not gonna lie. In order for this team to have 473 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 1: one and LA, Kyler Murray had to play like a 474 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 1: start and he did it. He controlled the first half 475 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: with his legs. He extended plays. I remember he had 476 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: like a sixteen yard gain on third and sixteen or 477 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: something like that. That really made me think, like, wow, man, 478 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 1: how does a defense stop this guy when he's being 479 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: as effective as he is as a join the ball 480 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 1: and then when he scrambles, I mean, it's a cheat code. 481 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 1: It's honestly, honestly, sometimes it's not fair. He didn't even 482 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: have an interception, which he had won at least one, 483 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: and in the first three weeks of the season. So 484 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 1: just an overall great performance from Kyler Murray. He performed 485 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: in the biggest stages of the mall under the brightest lights. 486 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray is my rise and shine. He's so accurate. 487 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 1: You know that's all special. But you know you would 488 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: have to run a decent route, you would. You know, 489 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 1: he can get it to you no matter what you do. 490 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: But because he's so accurate, But can you run a 491 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: decent route? I can do one of these looks. Worry 492 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,159 Speaker 1: about the hill, Joe, about those back here, Come on, 493 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: let's take a step back, Philip. First of all, you 494 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: have to take off those three X gloves and put 495 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: on some smaller gloves, right because the kyder throws a 496 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: ball at they're gonna rip them right off your hands. So, 497 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 1: by the way, really quick, you know, I know he 498 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 1: didn't even have the ardage of Aja Green. That's part 499 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: of the beauty of this offense. Right. It's probably a 500 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: little frustrating to him, But how about him almost making 501 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: a spectacular catch with Ramsey all over him. I would 502 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 1: have loved it. He was interfered with. By the way, 503 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 1: ms you got there before. That was exactly a you 504 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: know what call. But uh an, you know what non call. 505 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: But I was just gonna mention that speaking of you 506 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 1: have the gloves, you have the hands going, we were 507 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: talking hands hang with it. We love to see it. 508 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 1: We know you, we know you should have had that ball. 509 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: There's gonna be a there's gonna be a day where 510 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 1: some of these secondaries are gonna start shifting their focus 511 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: to Christian Kirk and aj Green because at the end 512 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: of the day, those two are benefiting from the attention 513 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 1: that DeAndre Hopkins straw. So at some point throughout the season, 514 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: these defenses are gonna have to pick their poison. And 515 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 1: that's when I feel like one of those three guys 516 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 1: is going to keep breaking out weekend and week out. 517 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 1: So let's wrap it up. Let's bring home the bacon, Orlando. 518 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 1: There's a lot of talk about this Arizona Cardinals team. 519 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 1: What is the state of the Arizona Cardinals in the NFL? 520 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 1: Are they playoff contend, they're Super Bowl contender, the best 521 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: in the NFL, NFC? Where do they stand? Scrammers, Let's 522 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 1: put on a little bit more of make Bulls syrup here, 523 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 1: because the state of the Cardinals is exactly stacking wins. 524 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: Let's be honest, what we saw versus or Rams is 525 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: an excellent You're seeing an excellent football team come together, 526 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: and once they merge, the confidence level just rises. Everybody 527 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: does their lives better, everybody arrives better on time too. 528 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: For the for film room. It just becomes an evolution 529 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: of everybody doing their part. And I think we saw 530 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: that Van Joseph very creative on the defensive side, you know, 531 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: having them discipline and Kyler from the pocket. You guys 532 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: mentioned it already. I think the state of the team 533 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 1: is forward. And once you get a big win versus 534 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 1: a arrival that pretty much had your number for the 535 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: last couple of years, that just gets you going. Man. 536 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: So I think for this week, also hosting a defense 537 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: NFC Arrival, which is nine ers, is going to be 538 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: an excellent test because you cannot you cannot take a 539 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: step back. You've already produced so many points. Your offensive 540 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: line is starting to roll on the run game, your 541 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: defensive the unit is starting to just to kind of 542 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 1: dominate impressure constantly rival quarterbacks. So I think it's going 543 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: to merge together and we need another victory in this matter. 544 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: In control, guys, it's very you know, people say, yeah, 545 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: it's tough to get the wins in the NFL. It 546 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: is tough to get the wins. But once you steamroll 547 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: somebody like that and you just go for it and 548 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 1: you're up by three four possessions, it makes your job easier, 549 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: and it makes the job during the week easier, makes 550 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: you more focused because you know the talent levels there. 551 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 1: You know what you can produce if verything clicks. And 552 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: I think that's going to be the main focus. The 553 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: state of the Cardinals has to be from Kingsbury through 554 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: Events Joseph, through Sean Coogler and all the rest of 555 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 1: the coaches, keeping these guys focus and keeping these guys 556 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: on the right pace. If they do that, watch out 557 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: the Niner is going to be an excellent show for 558 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: everybody in State Farm Stadium. Jody, what is this Arizona 559 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: Cardinals team have to do to maintain momentum in week 560 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: five and moving forward? Well, I think it's Rollanda touched 561 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: on it there. The other thing that's an intangible It's 562 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: just that everybody talked about what a great week of 563 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 1: practice it was. Everyone talked about the focus and that 564 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: that's hard to keep up. That's that's the one part 565 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 1: of sports. Any athlete, you know, it's just natural that 566 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: you're gonna have letdowns. You might not have as great 567 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: a week for you know a team that you know, 568 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: maybe Jacksonville, but they got up for the Rams and 569 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 1: then they took it to them in the game and 570 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: stayed focused. So how can you do that against another opponent. Well, 571 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: it is going to be at home, of course, that 572 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 1: should fire everyone up. I mean this team has now 573 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: gone on the road and beating the Titans and the 574 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: Rams in dominating fashions, So really checking the boxes on 575 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: what they can do on the road. So come home 576 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: and see if you can get another dominant win against 577 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: the Niners. But yeah, a win is a win. Hopefully 578 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: they can do it whether it's Garoppolo or Trey Lance 579 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: or you know, whatever is going to happen with this 580 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: Niners offense. Go out there and bring that physicality that 581 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: you brought to the Rams. Easier said than done. I 582 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: understand the NFL's a tough place to play, but you 583 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: can do that by using the entire team effort. Game 584 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: plan was awesome, So continuing that and I just think 585 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: again getting up with the passing game and the defense 586 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 1: getting those stops early. This is a recipe for victory 587 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 1: in the NFL. I think they can absolutely do it again. Phelippe, 588 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: you know they just got it. Now they know they 589 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 1: can do it. And they've done the ultimate thing, which 590 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: is beating Sean McVay and the Rams after going and 591 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: eight against them. What a confidence builder this is going 592 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: to be. And Craig, you know, as good as this 593 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: team played in Week four, there's still some room for improvement. Obviously, 594 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: it's the NFL. You're not gonna You're never gonna be 595 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: perfect in a specific game. What does does Cardinals offense, defense, 596 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,959 Speaker 1: special teams. I don't know where you want to pick highlight, 597 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: but where do they need to improve on the most? Well, 598 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: we are a nitpicking because you score thirty seven points, 599 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: yet you went over two and first and goal situations offensively, 600 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:34,479 Speaker 1: and you know that's going to come up in the 601 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: offensive meetings and too many penalties. That didn't stall any drives, 602 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: but the Cardinals made it difficult on themselves at times. 603 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: So clean up those mistakes and then, yeah, you strive 604 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: for perfection. You'd never get there, but that's always what 605 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: you look for. And I love what Buddha Baker had 606 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: to say postgame the one in Oh mentality. But the 607 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 1: motivation this week is very simple. The last time the 608 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: forty nine ers where at State Farm Stadium against the Cardinals, 609 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: they embarrassed the Cardinals in Week sixteen. It was not 610 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: fun to watch. So all you have to do is 611 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: turn on the tape from a year ago. It's a 612 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: different team. I understand that, But this two game stretch 613 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: rams in forty nine ers. That's how the Cardinals ended 614 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: last season, losing to the forty nine ers in the rams. 615 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: This is a redemption tour, if you will. The players 616 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: don't look ahead, but we can look ahead. If the 617 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 1: Seahawks win on Thursday and the Cardinals win on Sunday, 618 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: it's a two game lead in the NFC West after 619 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: five weeks. Two game lead. So yeah, that's what I'm 620 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: hoping happens when we convene, reconvene here in one week's time. 621 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: Hopefully in week five we break another record and it's 622 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: a fifth consecutive victory Monday here in the morning scramble. 623 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 1: At that point, I don't even know what Orlando's gonna 624 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 1: come up with with five victors, five and no impressive. Um, 625 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 1: you know it's it's gonna be good times. I think 626 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: with what Craig just mentioned recapping the history between the 627 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 1: Niners and as the recent history, right, it's gonna be 628 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 1: an emotional game and you want to perform. You're gonna 629 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 1: be in front of your home crowd, You're gonna be 630 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: in front of your friends, your family members. It's time 631 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,399 Speaker 1: to show up. And what we saw what they can 632 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: do in LA. I mean, come on, guys, this is 633 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: this has to be a game plan that has to 634 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: work here at home, and yeah, it's gonna be a 635 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 1: great game to call. I got one thing, one quick 636 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 1: one here because I feel like on this show, we 637 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: don't want to miss anything. But Matt Prador, you know 638 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: again three for three a fifty five yard or I 639 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:36,879 Speaker 1: know two of them were chip shops, but we never 640 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: take it for granted here on the Morning Scramble, right, 641 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: Matt Praydor, great job again. I remember tweeting during the 642 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 1: game like, I don't know what the feeling is, but 643 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 1: it just felt so cool having Matt Prader make a 644 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,760 Speaker 1: fifty five yard feel goaling like like or something like Yeah, 645 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: it was just like I honestly, I can't explain the feeling, 646 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: but it was just pretty cool to watch. But that's 647 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 1: it for US. Week five, there's a Card's host. The 648 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 1: Sentrances score forty nine ers at one twenty five. That's 649 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: a kickoff. And please, one huge favorite red see Do 650 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: not sell your tickets to Niner fans. Please. There's nothing 651 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: that stresses me out for more than seeing that red 652 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 1: and gold at State Farm Stadium. So please hold on 653 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 1: to your tickets. Listening to the defensive line coach Brentson Buckner, 654 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,719 Speaker 1: he said don't tell him, so whatever he says goes 655 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,359 Speaker 1: all right.
