I actually have more 18 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 2: questions after Week one than I did going in. Is 19 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 2: it possible to actually come away from playing four quarters 20 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: of a regular season game and have more questions than 21 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 2: before the game even kicked off. That's sort of a 22 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 2: rhetorical question for Darren Urban Danny Sirek yours Truly poly podcast. 23 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 2: We'll get into all that. You know, the biggest leap 24 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 2: isn't from year one to year two, it's from week 25 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 2: one to week two. You got to make adjustments, okay, 26 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 2: And apparently based on the game plan that I'm seeing here, 27 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 2: we are going to make some adjustments upcoming foreshadowing here 28 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: on Cardinals Underground. Danny, you're ready to take over what's 29 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 2: sure to be an exciting, slash, entertaining, slash, highly competitive 30 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: edition of a brand new game within the game. 31 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 3: Absolutely, but we're not going to get to that quite yet. 32 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: Oh okay, all right, because we're going to start with 33 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: Week one in Buffalo, are we not. 34 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I want you to answer your rhetorical question. 35 00:01:58,720 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 2: Oh, I have a lot of questions. 36 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 4: I know. 37 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 3: I want to hear your answer to your rhetorical question. 38 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 4: You do really okay? First of all, when you say 39 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 4: you have a lot of questions after week when you're 40 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 4: talking about Cardinals specific, are you talking about the league 41 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 4: in general? 42 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: You know you could zoom out and say the league. 43 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 2: I mean, the only real answer I think we have 44 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 2: in the NFL as a whole is that the Carolina 45 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 2: Panthers will be picking number one. Other than that it 46 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 2: is wide open. 47 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 4: I don't know. I feel pretty confident that the forty 48 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 4: nine ers are going to be pretty low in the 49 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 4: draft order. 50 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. That forty nine ers exhibition they ran for one 51 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 2: to eighty without Christian McCaffrey. Jordan Mason just gets plugged 52 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 2: in in rushes for a buck forty eight or whatever 53 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 2: it was. 54 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, and one of my fantasy leagues, I have Christian 55 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 3: McCaffrey and Darren Yelle's over to me at my desk 56 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 3: that he was inactive, and when I was upset because 57 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 3: obviously there was no one else to play, I didn't 58 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 3: have any other running back on the Jets or the 59 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 3: forty nine ers, and I asked darn if I could 60 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 3: leave where early and go home, and he said no, 61 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 3: that was not a good enough reason. 62 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 2: I did say that the strength of the NFC West 63 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 2: is not a question. It's gonna be good, there's no doubt. 64 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 4: I think I saw some next level analytics that actually said, like, 65 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 4: in terms of expected play average for both offense and defense. 66 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 4: I mean, obviously the Cardinals didn't do have quite as 67 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 4: good of a game as they would have liked, but 68 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 4: they were still in the positive for offense, and I 69 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 4: think everybody in the division was ahead of the game 70 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 4: in terms of when you look at everybody in the division, 71 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 4: I think they were the only division where everybody was 72 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 4: in some sort of positive. 73 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 2: By the way, did you see NFL next Gen stats? 74 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 2: They have debuted their own innovation for twenty twenty four. 75 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 2: They're now quantifying tackling. So we'll get to that a 76 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 2: little bit later. They say they can go ahead and 77 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: assess tackling, who's the best at tackling, who's the best 78 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 2: at breaking tackles like individuals individuals? So I just found 79 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 2: that they just posted that earlier today. We'll get into 80 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 2: that a little bit later. Well, yeah, if you want 81 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 2: to hit zoom out out Cardinals losing a tight game 82 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 2: at Buffalo, I mean the whole you know, going before 83 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 2: the game started versus after the game. If we would 84 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 2: have said before the game, you went into Buffalo and 85 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: he lost by six points. A team with the quarterback 86 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 2: who's number two in MVP odds, a team that's been 87 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: to the playoffs six straight years and has gone pretty 88 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 2: deep into the playoffs. Okay, all right, A competitive Cardinals 89 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 2: team on the road against the Buffalo Bills. It was 90 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: the fact that you took a seventeen to three lead 91 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 2: and then ended up on the short end thirty four 92 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 2: to twenty six. 93 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 3: I wasn't necessarily surprised by the first half. I went 94 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 3: in really thinking it was going to be a close game, 95 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 3: just looking at the quarterback matchups and offensive pieces, and 96 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 3: thought it was going to be really come down to 97 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 3: how the defense held up and the fact that they 98 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 3: forced a turnover I thought was huge, and the Cardinals 99 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:58,119 Speaker 3: capitalize on that, scoring on their first three drives. After 100 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 3: seeing what we saw in the first half, it it 101 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 3: was clearly different in the second. The Cardinals were not 102 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 3: able to move the chains, were not able to capitalize. 103 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 3: Kyler Murray not able to connect with his receivers, whether 104 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 3: that's on his end or the receivers, or what the 105 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 3: defense was showing. I will say, to a certain extent, 106 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 3: given the defense a little slack is Josh Allen is 107 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 3: Josh Allen, and there's a reason the Bills have been 108 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 3: competitive every year that he's been in Buffalo. His ability 109 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 3: to evade the sacks and the pressure and extend plays, 110 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 3: and regardless of who he has out wide, even if 111 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 3: it's not a top wide receiver like Gabe Davis or 112 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 3: Stefan Diggs, who the Bills are without this year, finds 113 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 3: a way to get it done. 114 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 2: You mean, he's not the most overrated player in the 115 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 2: league like that, anonymous poll declared. 116 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm watching that game and I'm thinking to 117 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 4: myself and again one game, but I'm watching that game thinking, 118 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 4: Josh Allen has a chants to be Patrick Mahomes from 119 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 4: last year, which is you look at some of his 120 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 4: offensive weapons and you're thinking, okay, and then he carries 121 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 4: them a long way because he looked fantastic. And I 122 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 4: think the Cardinals did a great job of essentially taking 123 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 4: away Dalton Kincaid, the great tight end, and he still 124 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 4: made things happen. And you know, I know people are 125 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 4: gonna argue with me whatever, but I aside from the 126 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 4: stats or the analytics, from what I saw in my eyes. 127 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 4: I mean, one of the reasons he was making so 128 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 4: many plays with his legs because I thought for what 129 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 4: the Cardinals were trying to do to get pressure on him, 130 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 4: I thought they did that sometimes. Unfortunately he broke containing 131 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 4: too many times and then it happened. But it's funny 132 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 4: you talk about all the questions you have. I'll be honest. One, 133 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 4: the two biggest things I took away were one, I 134 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 4: definitely felt more negative about that performance in the moments 135 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 4: after than I did Monday when I started thinking about 136 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 4: a lot of stuff. And two, when I look at questions, 137 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 4: I'm like, the only thing that really was like wow, 138 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 4: I did not expect that was the Marvin Harrison three targets, 139 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 4: one catch. I don't think there was anything else that 140 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 4: really was like oh wow, not to me. 141 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 2: Well, first off, on Josh Allen, he's like this maddening 142 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 2: combination of Big Ben and like Steve Young, Yes, right, 143 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 2: I mean, dudes can be dripping off him and hitting 144 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 2: him and he's still getting the pass away. 145 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 4: I mean he's a large man. 146 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,679 Speaker 2: Or or he could just be running through the open 147 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 2: field making guys miss trucking dudes, campaigning for calls that 148 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 2: he got. We'll get into that a little bit later. 149 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 4: Let's not go there. 150 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 2: As to your point about the tight ends. You know, 151 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 2: my keys to the game, right that I had going in. 152 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 3: We got a key chain with the key you took 153 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 3: it out of the package. 154 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 2: Yes, now there's a key chain, you know, So my 155 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 2: key to the game going in was the tight ends 156 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 2: both of them. How could the Cardinals defend Dawson Knox 157 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 2: Stalton Kincaid. They had one catch apiece and then the 158 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: Cardinals with Trey McBride against no Matt Mulano, brand new 159 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 2: safety back up inside linebackers, and the Cardinals couldn't maximize 160 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 2: that either. His longest catch was eight yards. Yeah, he 161 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 2: was kind of a non factor. But yeah, in terms 162 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 2: of questions, I guess you know the Marvin Harrison junior one. Yeah, 163 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 2: that leads a powerpole. We'll get into that in a minute. 164 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 2: But still you want to hit other There's other questions 165 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 2: individual players, like other new guys. In additions, you know 166 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 2: the ball Nichols, Justin Jones, Sean Murphy, Bunte. 167 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 3: Justin Jones with the fumble recovery. 168 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: Sure, you know a Max Melton didn't have a great 169 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 2: Pro Football focus grade. You know, I mean Xavier Thomas 170 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 2: who was in the rotation they are counting on him. 171 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 2: You know, there's just there's a lot of questions there. 172 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 2: There's still a lot of questions in my mind. Tell 173 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 2: me if I'm off base here. The Cardinals' ability to 174 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 2: be cloud coverage these shell coverages. Oh, I think that's 175 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 2: been an ongoing narrative for two or three years. 176 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 4: Now, Okay, I guess I guess that's why I need 177 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 4: to clarify. You're talking about questions that you still want answers, 178 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 4: and I was talking more about I'm not surprised at 179 00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 4: anything that I have seen yet. 180 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, there were there's questions on personnel. There's questions on 181 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 2: what exactly is going to be the identity on both 182 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 2: sides of the ball. There's questions are they gonna be 183 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: able to generate enough pass rush to what JG says 184 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 2: affect the quarterback. You thought there was enough pass rush 185 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 2: in that game? 186 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 4: I mean to me again, I would have to go 187 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 4: watch it again. Obviously you strongly disagree. 188 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 2: Paul Well, especially in the second half, probably the second, third, 189 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 2: and fourth quarter. I just thought Josh Allen had far 190 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 2: too much time. 191 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 4: Maybe I guess I just saw way too many completions 192 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 4: on broken plays and where he was on the move 193 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 4: that told me, you know, they weren't they weren't boot 194 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 4: legs he was moving on. They were moving because they 195 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 4: got enough people in there that he was not comfortable 196 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 4: standing where he was standing, and then moved and then 197 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 4: eventually found a guy. Now, if you want to talk 198 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 4: about him having them not being able to get to 199 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 4: him soon enough to prevent him from throwing the pass, 200 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 4: that's different to me. 201 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 2: Even the Roy Lopez so sack, do we agree was 202 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 2: a coverage sack that had a lot. 203 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 4: Of time, although somebody said he had a wide open guy, 204 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 4: which sounds familiar, but nobody got on his case about 205 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 4: it and just missed him. And that's the only reason 206 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 4: Lopez got there. 207 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, And then the other sack was Kee Trell Clark. 208 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 2: It was basically me fell out. 209 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 4: It was It was the one where Josh Allen they 210 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 4: it was going to be called a run because I 211 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 4: was because Mark Dalton was the PR guy was talking 212 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 4: to the official scorers and the thing it was going 213 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 4: to be a run. Well it was a pass and 214 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 4: then he ran. It was like that third and long 215 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 4: late in the game. And because Josh Allen wanted the 216 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 4: horse caller on Key Trella on that pao and he 217 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 4: got he got taken down short of the line of scrimmage, 218 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 4: and Mark argued successfully that it should have been a 219 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 4: sack because it was a pass play and he never 220 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 4: made it to the line of scrimmage. 221 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: Could I say Josh Allen campaigns for more calls than 222 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 2: Lebron James. No, I won't say that. 223 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 4: Look, if we're going to bring this up, I'm going 224 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 4: to say real quickly, both the play early in the 225 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 4: game that was a bad call that benefited the Cardinals 226 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 4: on the hit by Kyler, and the Xavin calls Collins 227 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 4: lost sack, which was a bad call. Both of those 228 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 4: in real time, the way the quarterbacks moved was I 229 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 4: absolutely understand why a flag was called. And if you 230 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 4: can't look again in slow mo like we all did 231 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 4: and see that they were both bad calls, I'm not 232 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 4: going to get on the officials for that. Because the 233 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 4: Kyler one, the way he fell his head hit the turf, 234 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 4: it looked like he got hit he did not. And 235 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 4: then the Josh Allen one, I thought in real time, 236 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 4: I'm like, that didn't look good, But then you watch 237 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 4: the replane it was just it was just a funky 238 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 4: play that shouldn't have been a penalty. I can't get 239 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 4: mad at the officials for throwing flags, especially when it 240 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 4: can't be reviewed. 241 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 2: It is deceiving in real time. I mean that play 242 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 2: was from here to the wall for me, Kyler and 243 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 2: his head bounced up and it was really him hitting 244 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 2: the turf. It wasn't the defender hitting him. It was deceiving. 245 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 2: There's no doubt about that, all right. Marvin Harrison Junior? 246 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 2: Where are we on this? Who is he? We don't 247 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 2: know yet. What sort of system does Junian? 248 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 4: There's a senior and he's definitely the junior. 249 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 2: How different we'll look this week? Jonathan Gannon on Arizona Sports, hinting, Yeah, 250 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 2: there might be the innovation of getting him in motion 251 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 2: a little bit more, getting him on the move. I 252 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 2: think you'll see him in different spots on the offense. 253 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: What can you do? What will they do to free 254 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,839 Speaker 2: up free Marvin Harrison Junior finished. 255 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 3: With one reception off three targets for four yards. I 256 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 3: would expect they continue to get him involved in the 257 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 3: game much more than he was this first week. And 258 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 3: I would imagine it was a combination of things. The 259 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 3: first target to the sideline, which was behind Harrison. I 260 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 3: think there was a safety that you couldn't really tell 261 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 3: until the SloMo replay of why Kyler didn't throw it 262 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 3: up in front of him over the back shoulder, and 263 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 3: then the and the drop was a good pass Harrison 264 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 3: had it in his hands. I think that was probably 265 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 3: just nerves of your first game, and I liked that 266 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 3: the immediate next play was not scripted. Kyler found Harrison 267 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 3: and maybe that was just the best read. And it's 268 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 3: likely that is the case. 269 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 4: Well that's what they keep telling us. 270 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 3: But I do think that it probably helped of Okay, 271 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 3: you're in the game, shake it off, mentally, stay in 272 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 3: this for the rookie. We were told by Gannon and 273 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 3: by offensive Cornat or Drew pet saying that they were 274 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: respecting Harrison as a rookie and maybe a lot more 275 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 3: than they initially anticipated for week one of making sure 276 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 3: they essentially had him double teamed for majority of the game. 277 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 3: And then you throw in the fact that it was windy, 278 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 3: it was funky, whether it would be sunny, and that 279 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 3: it was overcast and the win would get really intense, 280 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 3: and I think that played a role in what they 281 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 3: wanted to do in the air. So I would expect 282 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 3: that they target Harrison more than they did in this 283 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 3: first game now that you have maybe the nerves or 284 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 3: you kind of figured some stuff out of this was 285 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 3: the first time they played together. Now if they had 286 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 3: played a handful of preseason snaps. I'm not in the 287 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 3: camp of it would have looked drastically different. I don't 288 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 3: know how much that would really have provided, but it's 289 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 3: a fair question that's been brought up to the coordinators 290 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 3: and the head coach of you have your fourth overall pick, 291 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 3: you have this big time rookie and didn't really make 292 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 3: much of an impact to his defense. None of the 293 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 3: wide receivers really did. 294 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 4: I Paul, you're gonna know this. I mean, it feels 295 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 4: very deja vu because I can tell you what when 296 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 4: we were talking to Jonathan Gannon this week on Monday 297 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 4: and after the game, but on Monday and then Drew 298 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 4: Pettsing on Tuesday about getting the ball, why aren't you 299 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 4: getting the ball to your top receiver more? I had 300 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 4: absolute flashbacks from that room of asking Ken wizen Hunt 301 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 4: slash Bruce Arians slash Steve Wilkes slash Cliff Kingsbury, why 302 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 4: you're not getting the ball more than Larry Fitzgerald. This 303 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 4: is not the first end. And before people want to 304 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 4: jump on Petsing and organ in about like when they 305 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 4: talk about that you go through your progressions and get 306 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 4: the ball where it needs to be. I just want 307 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 4: to remind everybody that is what Ken wizen Hunt slash 308 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 4: Bruce Arians slash Steve Wilks slash Cliff Kingsbury said about 309 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 4: Larry Fitzgerald, and so did the quarterbacks most of the time. 310 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 4: Carson Palmer used to say the same thing, Kurt. You 311 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 4: know again that said, obviously you need to get the 312 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 4: ball to your playmaker, and they've got to do a 313 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 4: better job. But I want a bigger sample size than 314 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 4: one game. I understand why people are reacting the way 315 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 4: they are and all this stuff, but preseason wouldn't have 316 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 4: made a difference. I'm sorry, everybody's gonna get every all 317 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 4: up and feeling some kind of way, But Kyler Murray 318 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 4: was not going to play in the preseason, so I 319 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 4: don't think that changes anything there. Maybe maybe Marvin was 320 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 4: a little nervous. 321 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 2: But even if they did play, they'd see vanilla coverages. Yes, 322 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 2: would they have seen what they experienced against Buffalo with 323 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 2: the cloud coverage? And I mean, could I argue that 324 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 2: Marvin Harrison Junior had one catch for four yards on 325 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 2: aim easily three targets and it worked. It worked in 326 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 2: one way. He got extra attention. Yeah, he was treated 327 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 2: like wide receiver one, which is the reason you drafted him, 328 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 2: which was a dire need for the offense. You needed 329 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 2: a defense to respect wide receiver one. So in that 330 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 2: way it worked. The problem was you didn't capitalize in 331 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 2: the fact that extra attention, that gravitational poll was going 332 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 2: towards Marvin Harrison Junior the whole game. I'm sitting there, 333 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, especially in that second half. Look at 334 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 2: the extra coverage on Marvin. You know what that smells 335 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 2: like out here, opportunity and they couldn't cash that in. 336 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 3: Regardless of whatever the score would have been, if the 337 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 3: Cardinals had won, Michael Wilson had gone off, Greg Dortch 338 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 3: had gone off, Trey McBride, all these other offensive weapons, 339 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 3: we still would have been talking the fact that Marvin 340 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 3: Harrison Junior only had three targets. However it would have been, 341 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 3: it would have been a different story of Okay. But 342 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 3: but you made the best of it. Exactly what your 343 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 3: point is, Paul. But part of the problem of Harrison 344 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 3: only having one catch for four yards is, with the 345 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 3: exception of Michael Wilson's touchdown, not a factor. Greg Dortch 346 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 3: was his most relied upon receiver. Wide receiver, right wide receiver, right, 347 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 3: that they really did rely on James Connor in the 348 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 3: passing game. 349 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 4: And Connor was and McBride had the most targets right. 350 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 3: Connor was out wide on a couple of different sets. 351 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 3: I just think it's it's a it's a twofold issue 352 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,120 Speaker 3: that you need to work on moving forward of not 353 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 3: only getting Harrison more involved, but having the rest of 354 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 3: your weapons take advantage when he is double teamed and 355 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 3: he is out of a play. 356 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 4: And I'll say this, well, it's pretty preemptive. The first 357 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 4: time Kyler Murray throws into double coverage trying to force 358 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 4: the ball the mink, he throws a pick, I'm assuming 359 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 4: that would mean nobody's going to argue, what are you doing, Kyler? 360 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 4: Why are you throwing in a double coverage because that's 361 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 4: essentially again I'm not absolving the Cardinals of you. When 362 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 4: you have a guy like that, you got to get 363 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 4: him the ball. But like, it's so much more nuanced 364 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 4: than everybody wants it to be. And again I refer 365 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 4: back to all those years with Fitz. 366 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 2: Well, it's not just fans citing that Kyle Van Deenbosch, right, 367 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,400 Speaker 2: one of the Cardinals analysts. Twelve year NFL three time 368 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 2: Pro bowler said, in his years with the Lions, they 369 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 2: used to tell young Matthew Stafford, just throw it to him, 370 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 2: he's covered, doesn't matter, throw it to Calvin Johnson. 371 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 4: Kurt Warning used to say that he had to learn 372 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 4: that with Fitz. 373 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 2: You know. KVB was like, hey, Calvin Johnson isn't in 374 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame unless Matthew Stafford forced the ball 375 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 2: to him, sometimes in double coverage. 376 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 4: Although we won't talk about the fact the Lions never 377 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 4: won anything with Calvin Johnson. 378 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 2: So so yeah, did that help? Well, you need more 379 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 2: than the quarter back in and the receiver, which once 380 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 2: again comes back to my earlier comment about I was 381 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 2: shocked the tight ends in this game on both sides 382 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 2: weren't a bigger deciding factor, and it was somewhat shocked 383 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,239 Speaker 2: that the Cardinals weren't able to run the ball the 384 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 2: final three quarters. Like, if you're getting that sort of 385 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 2: shell coverage and there's an extra guy out of the 386 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 2: box ostensibly because they're paying extra attention to Marvin Harrison Junior, 387 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 2: then the whole Kramitt vertical. I'll say this just from 388 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 2: an observation on the sideline and Wolf and I talked 389 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 2: about this after the game. There was a lot more 390 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 2: of attacking the edges of the box with the run 391 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 2: game as opposed to between the tackles, and I'm guessing 392 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,239 Speaker 2: in the tight end room this week, there there's an 393 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 2: extra emphasis on the three tight ends and they're run 394 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 2: blocking and let's see if they can amp that up 395 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 2: make an improvement from week one to week two. 396 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 3: It did feel like a drop off in a sense. 397 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 3: I mean, when you start the game with six straight 398 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,959 Speaker 3: running plays to James Connor, ye, you would think that 399 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 3: would translate more, especially again when you bring in the 400 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 3: weather as a factor and the Cardinals had a seventeen 401 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 3: to three lead. 402 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 2: It I'm not a single snap in the second half 403 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 2: from under center. 404 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 3: I'm not going to get over my skis about this 405 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 3: because it is one week and when you're looking at 406 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 3: big picture, the Cardinals were competitive. Was it as consistent 407 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 3: throughout the game? No, it was more the Cardinals were 408 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 3: a lot more competitive and dominating in the first half 409 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 3: than they were in the second, and that's something that 410 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 3: needs to be addressed. I'm not freaking out over the 411 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 3: fact that you have plenty to work on in week 412 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 3: two before you host the rams, and finding a way 413 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 3: to be more consistent in the run game and not 414 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 3: just and maybe that was the game plan of not 415 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 3: necessarily going downhill, but going more horizontally in the run game, 416 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 3: but finding a way to get all of your weapons 417 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 3: more involved. 418 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 4: I am curious to know the extent of the injury 419 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 4: to JOHNA. Williams the right tackle and what that ultimately means. 420 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and because it didn't look, no, it didn't look 421 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 2: I sort of hit zoom out on Cardinals cover too. 422 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 2: I said, you know, the three axioms of any football game, 423 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 2: of any football team, quarterback, get to the quarterback, protect 424 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 2: that quarterback. In the first quarter en route to a 425 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 2: seventeen to three lead, all three of those were clicking 426 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 2: your quarterback. You were getting to Josh Allen's stripsack right, 427 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 2: and you were protecting Kyler Murray plenty of time to 428 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 2: go through his reads, find guys in the passing game. 429 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 2: The last three quarters, which came in sync with the 430 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 2: very last play of the first quarter and the injury 431 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 2: of Jonah Williams, things started to change. Cardinals pass protection 432 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 2: wasn't what it was earlier in the game, and then 433 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 2: all of a sudden. As Jonathan Ganner told us after 434 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 2: the game in the radio interview, you got a lot 435 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 2: more run blitzes. They started loading the box. That two 436 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 2: shell you know, too high safety shell coverage. There are 437 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 2: two things that to me, I'm not going to declare 438 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 2: Kyler all the way back until I see two things. 439 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 2: Cardinals make those shell coverages, pay the two high safeties, 440 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 2: and then you just get the downfield passing attack going period. 441 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 2: The stat and I ripped this off from Craig Griler, 442 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 2: the Cardinals on deep balls those ten plus air yards, 443 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 2: Cardinals are ZW for six. Forget deep balls, just downfield 444 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,679 Speaker 2: passing period has to be restored. I think to the 445 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 2: Cardinals offense at least before you say, you know what, Okay, 446 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:27,919 Speaker 2: it's everything it can be. 447 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 4: But and again that's everybody. I mean, Michael Wilson should 448 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 4: have made that catch for twenty twenty five yards and 449 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 4: first play in the final. 450 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 2: Drive, I mean the kickoff went to the out of bounds. 451 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 2: You start at the forty and then you had to 452 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 2: drop on a chunk throat that would have put you 453 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 2: in the Bills in Bill's territory instantly. 454 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's again, that's tough. 455 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 2: It's even the ball to Dorch at the very end 456 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 2: was actually on the money. He's got one hand ripped 457 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 2: down and he's trying to make a catch with only 458 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 2: his right arm, but that ball actually was on the money. 459 00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,679 Speaker 4: Well, And I know people were trying to figure out 460 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 4: why you throw it a doors and I think he was. 461 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 4: He had single coverage. He was the guy with single 462 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 4: coverage on the when the blitz happened. So I don't 463 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 4: you know what, again, I don't They got to be better. 464 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 4: The quarterback also has to be better. But at the 465 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 4: same time I thought, I thought Kyler played a solid game. 466 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 3: I also like the way he used his legs. It 467 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 3: didn't feel like it was forced. That was something that 468 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 3: we've heard him say of, Yes, he wants to be 469 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 3: able to use it when he needs to, but doesn't 470 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 3: want that to be what this offense is relying on 471 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 3: to be successful. And you got a sense of that 472 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 3: of when he needed to escape pressure or the lane 473 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,920 Speaker 3: was there for him, he took it. It wasn't forced. 474 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 4: The twenty whatever yard past twenty four yard pass to 475 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,439 Speaker 4: de Marcado in the first half, yep, that was so 476 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 4: awesome because Kyler could have run and I think once 477 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 4: upon a time he would have run, but he decided 478 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 4: to stay back there and keep waiting, and eventually came 479 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 4: back around to Amari, who was uncovered and got him 480 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 4: a twenty four yard pass. 481 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,360 Speaker 2: I don't watch the All twenty two, Danny, You back 482 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 2: to watching the All twenty two at all. 483 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 3: Sour subject at the moment, I was able to log 484 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 3: in on Monday, and then I try to log in 485 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 3: to watch some things before the podcast on Tuesday, and 486 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 3: suddenly my login was requiring me to pay. So it's 487 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 3: something I gotta work figure out. 488 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, well sorry, I didn't know that was a 489 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 2: loaded question. The reason I bringing up is just from 490 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 2: watching from the sideline, and there's a lot of chaos, 491 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 2: and sometimes you have the best seats, sometimes you have 492 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 2: the worst. But there were definitely times where the Bills 493 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 2: were using a spy, and there are definitely times it 494 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 2: didn't matter Kyler left the dude in the dust. But 495 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 2: then I start thinking about after the game, Like Darren says, 496 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 2: you start to process things. So wait a minute, if 497 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 2: they had a spy on Kyler and there was extra 498 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 2: coverage devoted to Marvin Harrison Junior. 499 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 3: Someone's supposed to be open. The math is not mathing. 500 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 2: You got to make that defense pay, right, right, So 501 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 2: I think that's the charge to the offense in week 502 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,360 Speaker 2: two and beyond, and now that. 503 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 3: They have a look maybe at what defenses are going 504 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 3: to do to Marvin Hair and maybe that'll give him 505 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 3: a better idea of what they can do with their 506 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 3: other weapons and find a way for regardless of who's 507 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 3: out there, the number of players out there, for Harrison, 508 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 3: how can you still get him the ball? Because that 509 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 3: that should be a priority. 510 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 4: It is funny though you could easily see the way 511 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 4: that game went that if you somehow complete that last 512 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 4: drive for a touchdown, he doesn't get the ball for 513 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 4: whatever reason. And where this is such a different discussion 514 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 4: because then you would have scored thirty seven points, thirty 515 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 4: eight points, thirty no, what was the final score? Thirty 516 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 4: thirty four twenty yes, yeah, so you would have scored 517 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 4: thirty six points and uh, thirty five points. Sorry, I 518 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 4: can't math, Math isn't mathing. You would have won by 519 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,959 Speaker 4: a point. You would have had four touchdowns without Marvin 520 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 4: being a factor. And we go back to what Danny 521 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 4: was saying before. Everybody would be. 522 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 3: Like, see this is it's a win win win, which 523 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 3: is what it still can be. 524 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I know everybody's going to rip on us for 525 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 4: being a Homer. They're going to listen to this and go, 526 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,159 Speaker 4: you guys don't know what you're talking about. 527 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 2: So if we look forward, Okay, here, Pauly Pigskin, division 528 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 2: of Calvic Consulting, says, how about ripping a play page 529 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 2: right out of the Sean McVay playbook with Cooper Cup 530 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 2: Do you see this ridiculous stat that in the sunny 531 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 2: night game against the Lions he traveled a total of 532 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 2: four hundred and thirty six yards in pre snap motion alone, well, 533 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 2: the second most in a game by any player since 534 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen. Right, by the way, he had fourteen catches 535 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:32,360 Speaker 2: on twenty one targets. How about you take that out 536 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 2: of the Rams playbook and you use that with Marvin 537 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 2: Harrison junior dude constantly in motion. 538 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,120 Speaker 4: Okay, here's my question on that, and I'm being completely 539 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 4: serious with this. You know how they they track how 540 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 4: much all these guys run? Yep, because they don't want 541 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,640 Speaker 4: them overdoing it? Are you are? Do you count all 542 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 4: that motion like that's still running? 543 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 2: Well, what do you mean they don't want them over 544 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 2: in a game, Like, what do you mean there's limits 545 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 2: to what? Oh yeah, that you you mean like league 546 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 2: rules or something? 547 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 4: What teams teams? It's it's sports science. 548 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 2: Paul okay. Well, I know mar Marvin's it's his second 549 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 2: game as a rookies twenty two years old. 550 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 4: I'm not saying I'm not saying he can't handle it. 551 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 4: But if you run him that much, like how much 552 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 4: is he practicing later in the season, Because I'm just saying. 553 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 2: Well, you know the rookie wall. You know, Paris Johnson 554 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 2: Junior played every snap of every game last year. You know, 555 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 2: there's your rookie wall for Paris Johnson Junior. I think 556 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 2: it's a it's a player by player basis. 557 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 4: Playing every snap and doing well on every snap or 558 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 4: two totally different subjects. 559 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,880 Speaker 2: Paul Okay, So, now is that a commentary on the play. 560 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 4: Not a commentary? I think you just you're like you 561 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 4: you right now? Are I'm saying you're not an analytics 562 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 4: guy at all. No, not really, So I just find 563 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 4: it as long as you play every play, then that's 564 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 4: good enough. 565 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's play every play. What I'm saying. 566 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 2: My point here is that in Any buddy who's watched 567 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 2: the Cardinals play Cooper Cup knows he's always in motion, right. 568 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,719 Speaker 2: It could be a little cheap motion, it could be 569 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 2: from one side of the field the other that I 570 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 2: mean every snap he's in a different spot, different launch point. 571 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 2: I mean, Sean mcvad does a really good job of 572 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 2: making him tough to cover. I'm just wondering if you 573 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 2: can rip that off best practices as you try and 574 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 2: unlock Marvin Harrison Junior. That's my only point. 575 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 4: Okay, so I throw that out, And the point I 576 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 4: was making didn't really necessarily say don't do this with Marvin. 577 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 4: They could be separate things though. 578 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 2: So by the way, on the whole Jonah Williams and 579 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 2: the offensive line thing, yeah, that's a situation to monitor. 580 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 2: And if it's Kelvin Beacham going forward, is there some 581 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 2: extra help out there? Not a necessity? Is a tip 582 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 2: ryman out there's a lot more twelve than thirteen personnels 583 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 2: if the Cardinals don't use it enough already. But now 584 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 2: you're keeping in someone to help with the edge. And 585 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 2: I tell you this much, Jared Bursa had a nice 586 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 2: game against the best offensive line in the game. The 587 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 2: Lions boasts the best all the line in the game 588 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 2: and the nineteenth pick overall, the rookie out of Florida, 589 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 2: stage j Adverse went out there and he had a 590 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 2: sack and he had six quarterback pressures. So even though 591 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 2: they don't have Aaron Donald, they do have the ability 592 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 2: to get to the quarterback the rams. So we'll see 593 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 2: about that. How about the Cardinals defense. Give me a 594 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 2: word or two on the Cardinals defense and what you 595 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 2: saw there and what do you think Nick Rowlis is, 596 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 2: how is he looking at this and where's he trying 597 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 2: to evolve the defense going into week two? 598 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 4: I mean, I think they they would probably like it 599 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 4: to execute a little bit. We got a lot of 600 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 4: quote there was good and bad unquote from Nick Rollis 601 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 4: whenever you were asking him about and any part of 602 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 4: the defense, truly, and I think that's fair. I mean, 603 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 4: with all due respect. Again, when I go back to 604 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 4: the top of what I was saying, I didn't see 605 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 4: anything that surprised me. Was there anything that surprised. 606 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 2: You, Sean Murphy Bunting, I thought, yeah, being a veteran, 607 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 2: you know, a couple of those flags. He's got to 608 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 2: know better. 609 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 4: On that, but that's kind of his reputation, is right. 610 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:56,479 Speaker 1: Not much. 611 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm just not up enough on SMB. 612 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,959 Speaker 3: I think there was more. I was pleased to see 613 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 3: a few splashes. You see the strip sack by defensive 614 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 3: linemen Roy Lopez and Justin Jones is right there to 615 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 3: snatch it up and then the Cardinals go down. They 616 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 3: put three points on the board. Mac Wilson Senior was 617 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 3: a name where I a couple of times thought that 618 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 3: that's a good play seeing him very quickly get through 619 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 3: the gaps and get either to the quarterback get to 620 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 3: the running back for tackle for loss. I thought that 621 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 3: seeing Wilson Senior and Kaizer Whiters your linebackers was a 622 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 3: nice to you the way that they were advertised to 623 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 3: be this offseason. 624 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 4: I think mac Wilson made He played significantly fewer snaps 625 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 4: than Kayzier and had the same amount of production, which 626 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 4: that doesn't take anything from Kaizer. I just think mac 627 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 4: Wilson played pretty well. I'll say this in a nutshell 628 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 4: for me to defense. Gannon brought it up after the game, 629 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 4: brought it up again Monday, talking about the pass rush 630 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 4: and everything. He talked about having a free runner and 631 00:30:58,160 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 4: you can't miss those plays that was all on pap 632 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 4: came on a blitz, had Josh Allen dead rights, but 633 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 4: kind of like Ryan, I mean, Josh Allen kind of 634 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 4: moved a little bit, but it was it was almost 635 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 4: like Owen. Papal was running too fast and didn't really 636 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 4: ever get a great hand on him, but he was 637 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 4: a free runner. 638 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 2: You got to break down and make the tackle. 639 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 4: Again. I look at that play as a microcosm, not 640 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 4: to jump on Papo, but as a microcosm of this defense. 641 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 4: You are probably as a unit not strong enough to 642 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 4: hold teams to fifteen points a game. You have to 643 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 4: be opportunistic. That means on a play like that, that's 644 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 4: got to be a sack, just like the Bills drove 645 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 4: through the Cardinals fairly easily on that one drive, but 646 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 4: Roy Lopez made it a moot point because he got 647 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 4: there and was opportunistic and they got the turnover. That's 648 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 4: how this defense is going to succeed. They're not going 649 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 4: to be awesome in terms of stoning other offenses, but 650 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 4: they if they get a third and long, they got 651 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 4: to get off on it. They've got to get some 652 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 4: turnovers and if you get a free run on a quarterback. 653 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 4: You got to make it a lot harder on them 654 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 4: than it was. 655 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 2: You asked to have anything surprised on the defensive side. 656 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 2: Can I say in a really good way? Xaving Collins 657 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 2: called his name a lot during the radio broadcast. 658 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 4: Shut out a sack. I don't know if you heard 659 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 4: that point I. 660 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:15,479 Speaker 2: Should have been. I just thought he really it looked 661 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 2: like he took that next step at that position in 662 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 2: year two of being the outside linebackers. So I thought 663 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 2: that was a plus. Buddha Baker was all over the 664 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 2: field again. I mean between Buddha, Zavin mac Wilson, and 665 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 2: Kaiser White, you had forty tackles just between those four guys. 666 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 2: So that was sort of the heartbeat of the defense 667 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 2: in that regard. Now, as for what we're going to 668 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 2: see in terms of maybe the cornerback rotation, I am 669 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 2: curious about that, and especially without Pokin Nakool. What does 670 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 2: that mean? What can the Cardinals get away with Kien Williams. 671 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 2: We know what he did last year in a couple 672 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 2: of games against the Cardinals. There was a reason he 673 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 2: was the second team All Pro running back beyond Christian 674 00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 2: McCaffrey and some of those numbers from a year ago 675 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 2: and what he did. In fact, it's right here. I 676 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 2: jotted it down real quick. You realize in the first 677 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 2: game against the Cardinals, Kiren Williams twenty for a buck 678 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 2: fifty eight a touchdown that's eight yards of carry, had 679 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 2: a long of thirty one. In the second game sixteen 680 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 2: for one for three that's almost nine yards of carry 681 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 2: long of fifty six. 682 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 3: Is my memory serving me correctly? That it was last year? 683 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 3: Don't remember if it was home or way against the Rams, 684 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 3: where the Cardinals in the first half kept them pretty 685 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 3: one dimensional on the air, and then they opened up 686 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 3: the second half of road game like nine straight run 687 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 3: plays on a touchdown that in LA. 688 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 2: That might have been the second game of twenty two. 689 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 2: I want to say, maybe not, that. 690 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 3: Was two years ago. I think it was the last year. 691 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 2: I think they just came out. 692 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 3: Someone is listening and yelling at me for not having 693 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 3: a better memory. 694 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 2: Uh, you know what, we need to ramp up the 695 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 2: competitive juices here.

We're gonna 837 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:14,240 Speaker 4: need him this weekend, Danny. 838 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 2: He had to rebuild my confidence a little bit with 839 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 2: a Jack young Blood. 840 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 3: You'll get him next week. 841 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:19,279 Speaker 2: Okay. 842 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,320 Speaker 4: Those are the former LA Rams though these are the 843 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 4: current LA Rams. 844 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 2: Now yeah, okay, that's uh all right. By the way, 845 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 2: can I just say if you want an La Rams rant, 846 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 2: and I'm ready to deliver one after getting beat down 847 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,439 Speaker 2: right there? That wasn't just beat La. That was beat 848 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:35,880 Speaker 2: down La Calvic style, and that trivia. Sean McVay is 849 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 2: our new coach, double rainbow, is it? Okay? If we're 850 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 2: just sick and tired, sick and tired of Sean McVay, 851 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 2: not only his win loss record, which we don't need 852 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 2: to go into, but you know the soup commercials, we're 853 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 2: all a sudden. He's America's coach and he's coaching up 854 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 2: America and he's given PEP talks in the workplace. I 855 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:53,359 Speaker 2: don't need it. 856 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 4: Along those lines, Paul, did you see where he not 857 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 4: only gave up coaching one of the preseason games to 858 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 4: one of his assistants, so his assistant got a chance, 859 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 4: but during that game, like did like live interview with 860 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,399 Speaker 4: his booth while the game was going on. 861 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 2: Really, okay, see there's he had another reason. Roger Goodell, 862 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 2: if you're listening, all right, you need to eliminate one 863 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 2: more preseason game, just based on what Sean McVay, one 864 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,720 Speaker 2: of the premier head coaches the league, how he treated 865 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:26,400 Speaker 2: that preseason game. Obviously it's disposable and should be eliminated. 866 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 2: If he's well, we're not even engaged. 867 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 4: We're gonna see how good of a coach he is, 868 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 4: which we all know he's a great coach. But I 869 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 4: mean they, yeah, they're banged up. The Cardinals want to 870 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 4: complain about a couple of their injuries that the Rams 871 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 4: got smoked this weekend in terms of injuries. 872 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I told I told Craig Grielo. I said, you 873 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 2: know what, when I start whining about, you know, possibly 874 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 2: losing Jonah Williams and remind me about the state of 875 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 2: the Rams offensive line. They've lost three maybe four starters 876 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 2: when you count the suspension as well to their left 877 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,880 Speaker 2: tackle for the first two games. They're down two left tackles. 878 00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 2: They're down to starting interior guard, so their wide receiver. 879 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 2: So okay, I mean, I mean. 880 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 4: Let's face it, if we're talking about what this defense 881 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,359 Speaker 4: did and what the defensive line might do going forward. 882 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 4: I know you were saying you want to see maybe 883 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 4: some more from that, Pall. I mean, this is You're 884 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,080 Speaker 4: not going to have any excuses here. 885 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,839 Speaker 2: I mean, look, there are guys there. Put it this way, 886 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 2: there are players you added to the Cardinals roster you 887 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 2: didn't get a real good read on in Week one, 888 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 2: both free agents and rookies correct that you didn't get 889 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 2: a lot of production out of That's fair for various reasons. 890 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,480 Speaker 2: Marvin Harrison Junior, Justin Jones, Blall Nichols, Sean Murphy, Bunting. 891 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,399 Speaker 2: You know, John Williams got hurt obviously. You know, even 892 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 2: guys like Tip Ryman seemingly we're quiet now his role 893 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 2: is in a blocking capacity. Am I breaking down the 894 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,759 Speaker 2: blocking No, I'm not. You know, a Max Melton, right 895 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 2: Xavier Thomas non factor for the snaps that he played. 896 00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 2: So I would say, you know, in addition to winning 897 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 2: the game, just first, second, and third on any Power 898 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,359 Speaker 2: poll of wants and needs going into Week two, some 899 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 2: of these other additions to the team, you'd like to 900 00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:12,799 Speaker 2: see them have some more easily quantifiable, quantifiable contributions. 901 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:17,320 Speaker 3: It's a very different quarterback matchup going from Josh Allen, 902 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 3: who is very two dimensional to Matthew Stafford, who is 903 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 3: very not two dimensional. Now that doesn't make Stafford any 904 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 3: less quarterback. He is big and strong and powerful and accurate, 905 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:34,359 Speaker 3: and defensive coordinator Nick Rolis said himself, doesn't matter how 906 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 3: hard you hit him or how many times you hit him, 907 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 3: He's going to get up and he's going to continue 908 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,839 Speaker 3: to make plays. So it's really going to come down 909 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 3: to tight coverage by your secondary and hopefully not having 910 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 3: the weapon of Pukunakua, you can really put a lot 911 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 3: of that attention onto Cooper Cup who would deserve it 912 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 3: even if Nikula was out there. You need to have 913 00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 3: tight coverage and you need to for Stafford to hang 914 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 3: on the ball because you know he's not going to 915 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 3: leave the pocket, so you need to be able to 916 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 3: force him to hang on the ball to either throw 917 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 3: a bad throw or get in his face. 918 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:13,400 Speaker 4: He's uh, he's a hell of a player. And yeah, 919 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 4: I mean again, that's where this offensive line of the 920 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 4: Rams is. I'm very curious to see what happens there. 921 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:23,360 Speaker 4: I mean watching the tail end. And we were traveling 922 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:26,360 Speaker 4: back from Buffalo, the three of us, but watching the 923 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 4: tail end of that game. The Rams did some things 924 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:32,319 Speaker 4: at the end of that game when they had all 925 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 4: the injuries yep, and no Puka Nakua and that Lion's 926 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 4: defensive line is no joke. So which speaking of that, 927 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 4: that's the next team the Cardinals play after the Rams. 928 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,319 Speaker 2: So, but you're right, Dave, Matthew Stafford has some of 929 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 2: that Carson Palmer in him. He'll hang in the pocket 930 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 2: to the very last second. He is willing and able 931 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:51,920 Speaker 2: to take a shot and get the pass away. 932 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 3: He's not going to get in his head about hanging 933 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 3: out to the ball and feeling like he needs to 934 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 3: force it out. 935 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 2: No, he won't. He won't get skittish in the pocket. No. 936 00:44:58,360 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 2: And you know, I took a quick look at his 937 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 2: staff line against the Cardinals. Since he became the Rams quarterback, 938 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 2: last year five touchdowns, one pick, is two passer ratings 939 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 2: one oh seven one twenty one in five games he 940 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 2: missed one with injury. Five games as Rams starting quarterback 941 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 2: against the Cardinals, ten touchdowns, two picks. So he's been 942 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 2: very good in this series. In this matchup, he has 943 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 2: been excellent. And guys you know this, Guys who have 944 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 2: played with him in Detroit, the matt Praders of the world, 945 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 2: they rave about him and they think he's underrated. If 946 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,440 Speaker 2: Josh Allen was one and most overrated, yeah, Matthew Stafford 947 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 2: for all the acclaim and the Super Bowl might still 948 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,240 Speaker 2: be underrated. A lot of those guys consider him Patrick 949 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,840 Speaker 2: Mahons before Patrick Mahomes with all the arm talent and 950 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:38,640 Speaker 2: the arm angles. 951 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 4: I do think that sometimes people underrate him because I 952 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 4: think they got he played Detroit for a lot of 953 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 4: mediocre teams. Yep, he did win the Super Bowl, but 954 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 4: everybody kind of like, I don't know, overlook that a 955 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,520 Speaker 4: little bit or whatever it was. I just know that 956 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:57,360 Speaker 4: the Cardinals have had a recent history of struggles against 957 00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:00,279 Speaker 4: the Rams, and Sean McVay in their own bill thing, 958 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 4: you're opening, it's your home opener, You're going against a 959 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,359 Speaker 4: division fo, you did not win a division game last year. 960 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 4: This is a game that I may, I know we're 961 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 4: only two games in, becomes very very crucial, and with. 962 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 2: The Lions coming in arguably a top three team in 963 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 2: the NFL with the best offensive line in the game, 964 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:22,239 Speaker 2: right you're this is this becomes a very important game 965 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 2: in more ways than one. Speaking of games, where did 966 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 2: we end up in the picks from week one? Please 967 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 2: don't declare Darren Wind. 968 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 3: We share that in the podcast last week, right that 969 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:34,080 Speaker 3: we were going to do that off air, all three 970 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:35,800 Speaker 3: of us were going to pick games. 971 00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:39,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, without telling you, without without the Cardinals. Yeah, we 972 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 4: were picking the games. 973 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,360 Speaker 2: Fifteen games, fifteen games Cardinals. 974 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:45,799 Speaker 4: We won't do Cardinals games. So uh yeah, so we 975 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:47,720 Speaker 4: had that. So I went ten and five. 976 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,239 Speaker 3: Danny I also went ten and five. 977 00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,439 Speaker 2: So that was obviously better than Darren because Darren went 978 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:53,359 Speaker 2: twelve and three. 979 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:55,920 Speaker 3: So Darren is against you. 980 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 2: Paul, okay, So, because it can always get worse, it 981 00:46:58,719 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 2: just did. 982 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 4: Okay, you know, I'm pretty good about that. 983 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 2: It's all right, and so once. 984 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,319 Speaker 3: Again, like you know, it's week one, it's okay. 985 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:06,880 Speaker 2: Off the rest September is in New August is. I 986 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 2: like to say, you know, you don't get many reps 987 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:10,879 Speaker 2: in August, so you know there's a lot of things 988 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 2: you find out about your team and then you make 989 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 2: adjustments accordingly. 990 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 4: And system like sixty is the new forty. 991 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 2: Sort of yeah, I sort of. I went with that 992 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:18,759 Speaker 2: last year. I know it sounded good. I don't know 993 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 2: if there's much real truth to it, but I like 994 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 2: it in these days where a lot of teams who 995 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 2: don't play a lot of starters in August, I say, 996 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:25,880 Speaker 2: September is a new one. 997 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 4: And I will say this, like, I know it sounds hollow, 998 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,400 Speaker 4: but I'm stunned that I did that well.

Does that mean 1003 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 4: there just weren't crazy outcomes? 1004 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 3: I mean, I'll be honest. One of mine was Cincinnati, 1005 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 3: so was. 1006 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 4: One of my losses was definitely since that was crazy. 1007 00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, the crazy outcome was we actually got more right 1008 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,879 Speaker 2: than wrong. That was the craziness of week one, and 1009 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:02,440 Speaker 2: that'll do it. 1010 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 4: No big. 1011 00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:08,240 Speaker 3: One is your key? 1012 00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 4: One of them?
