00:00before but he's worked at it he was at the facility every single day working on it Buddy Morris has been a big help with him trying to get him reconditioned a lot of people have talked about his leadership his maturity all those things growing and he's a guy that likes to prove people wrong it's something he's been doing his whole life because here at State Farm Stadium as we get ready for kickoff the Arizona Cardinals and the Kansas City Chiefs
00:30Cardinals won the toss and deferred so they will kick off Matt Prater will boot it deep to Richie James he got him start on their 25 two-time MVP and two times getting the start tonight that gap integrity saw it last week the Cardinals were really good at the point of attack against the run play fake Mahomes fires and it's dropped at the 35 yard line by Rice good hit by Kaiser White who we did not see last week
00:59he didn't play but he is expected to be the play caller on defense he was with Gannon in Philadelphia a year ago he's nasty right here this is a guy that little pop in the face didn't hurt anybody on third and long Mahomes with time and has a completion for a first down to the 40 yard line
01:29there's a penalty marker down Justin Watson made the catch the flat flip the field a little bit
01:35third and Tucson Tommy Townsend on the punt for the Chiefs and Greg Dorian to get the first crack at returning a punt tonight
01:47the line drive right at Georgia flag is down George makes the first man miss and finally pushed out around the 44
01:57and that flag came in as soon as Dorch seasons over a thousand scrimmage yards we'll see if he gets a touch here on first and ten instead of pass play
02:06I know Hollywood Brown the intended target but he was not on the same page with McCoy that time
02:12no he was not right there the Kansas City Chiefs actually walking that eighth man in the box
02:18down still got six young and the Cardinals will punt McDuffie in coverage that time
02:24I know you didn't convert to move the chains right there David but honestly for me right now I love to see that
02:30Rondell Moore catching the ball I realize it was a two yard gain in the flat but anytime Rondell Moore can catch the ball
02:39I want to see more of that right now Nolan Cooney will punt
02:43we saw a lot of Matt Hawk last week
02:45punting the ball Cooney and Hawk battling for
02:48the job vacated by Andy Lee Richie James is deep excellent boot here by Cooney
02:54and James over the shoulder grab inside the 20 yard line
02:59and up to the 27 before he's dragged down by Victor Dini Cage
03:03so each team with a three and out to start the game Chiefs back on offense and we return
03:09the game Chiefs back on offense and we're going to play
03:12back on offense and we're going to play
03:15Mahomes to the air again on second and ten
03:17and the pocket breaking down
03:19flag down
03:20helmet came off
03:21Mahomes with a long throw that's caught
03:23at the 45 by Kelsey
03:25I don't know if this play is going to come back or not
03:27but my goodness the wizardry of Patrick Mahomes on display even here in the preseason
03:33man and that's what Marco Wilson was in and yet he made the player
03:40you know anytime you run those kind of horizontal plays David for the most part you really run the risk
03:47of getting hit will play Jalen Thompson was in there too
03:51that's what happened look at the big bad L.J. Collier
03:55oh my goodness you know it didn't matter whether it was Donovan McNabb in Philadelphia
04:00Alex Smith with the Chiefs or Patrick Mahomes with the Chiefs three fair quarterbacks he found ways
04:06to be a championship contender with all three
04:10George
04:12fields it on the seven
04:14to slip that first tackler but then down he goes
04:16at the ten yard line
04:18that is pure guts my friend on the chest
04:22you've been calling for him to be more physical he has a good friend Michael Wilson has done so many things right
04:28a good athlete even at age 36 now in his third year with the Cardinals remember a couple years ago
04:34and Kyler Murray got hurt he won some big games for the Cardinals during the regular season on their road to the playoffs
04:40close short gain of three
04:44there it is right there though David
04:46there we go
04:47eleven personnel one back one tight end three wide receivers
04:50go ahead we'll fake the tackle so
04:52the yardage out to the forty two
04:54Willie Gay on the takedown but at least they're moving the ball here
04:58third and manageable third about four
05:00yeah third manageables
05:02hard to tell if Morris stopped
05:04it appeared that he slowed down for a second
05:06Trent McDuffie in coverage Cardinals have to punt
05:10a good job with protection as well that time the Kansas City Chiefs they brought five
05:14really is something that you see an awful lot of in the National Football League
05:20to the ball
05:22pretty good for the Cros
05:27for the second time
05:29high and deep James letting it go
05:32and checks up at the five yard line and is down at the eight
05:36team who cage he was down there for the Cardinals two really good punts
05:40by Nolan Cooney so far
05:46come out and they run the tackle zone to the right of Pat Mahomes right there
05:51great job again with the gap integrity until the very end right
05:57on first down play fake Mahomes setting up
06:00Edwards here right up and out of the back field
06:04and has a first down out to the thirty two gain of eleven woods on the tackle
06:09but after Kansas City moved the chains
06:12well I really like Clyde Edwards Allaire just watching him the way he goes about his business
06:17excellent running back in between the tackles
06:20it feels like good bring a third down a gain of three it'll be thirty three
06:23this is one of the other things that we've seen now
06:26through almost five quarters of football in the preseason
06:30just the Arizona Cardinals tackling David it's so much better
06:34and made a mistake that time Clark a rookie sixth round draft pick out of Louisville
06:40he's route when it was not the end route
06:42that was a great key truck ball
06:45and they're gonna get to the penalty flat grown here against Isaiah Simmons
06:56Valdez Scantling made the tackle
06:58don't know if another flag goes Barnes drags down Edwards he layers
07:03that latest flag came in late
07:07the play can break down but with a linebacker in coverage show the Cardinals are gonna punt it here
07:19you know last year they'd go for it
07:22even in the regular season on fourth and two from their own 40 but it feels like we're gonna see a different philosophy with this late getting on the field
07:38we haven't seen that a lot though
07:53the third time the first two excellent Smith Marsat signaling and fair caught around the 12
07:57Kansas City support when it comes to evaluation of players
08:05the Cardinals second team defense and gain the most of 20 go and finish your point well
08:10so you know once again we'll have to see his first time through he managed and so did Buddha
08:18the great point about how he handled that and too about the coaching staff and how money went about that
08:25another great down defensively I don't know if that was on Isaiah Simmons he was the closest man to rice
08:31and the Chiefs are already inside the 20 yard line of the Cardinals
08:36yeah it's amazing right now you got a lot of the second team players out of six
08:41at the 15 yard line
08:44and he's going to bring pressure on to shell
08:47and a rush for
08:49and they covered
08:51but with running room for this show
08:53inside the five and into the end zone for the touchdown
09:05well don't like to see that obviously right there four man rush the shell just moves out to his left
09:11pocket collapse you can see it right here
09:16yeah moving out to his left getting outside the pocket right at the end here too you want to see Isaiah Simmons
09:26so a game of ten you see that right there playing cover three it's a three deep zone the Hamilton
09:31Chris Barnes over there to make the hit
09:36that's a great job by Chris Barnes coming in there
09:40he really is a guy that is a physical football player as well I love what I'm seeing from Chris Barnes
09:46it's not only in the preseason games here but also in training
09:50the last possession it was the first team offense minus Patrick Mahomes now you got the second team offense
09:54with Washington
09:56Brock Purdy last year started as a seventh round pick
09:59without San Francisco to the NFC title game
10:02Toon going downfield complete to the jelly inside the 40
10:07more laundry but the point about Howell and Purdy is
10:11it doesn't seem
10:12to the third round pick
10:15first down after the penalty
10:18toon back to throw
10:20and down to Ingram wide open
10:23two partners basically in the same space
10:25Ingram gets a first down stopping the clock with 39 seconds to go
10:29after a game of two
10:31it's a goat rider
10:33this kid would ride a goat into a stampede
10:36I love the way he plays the game
10:38he's not afraid
10:40down 17 nothing trying to get something here before halftime
10:43at 31 seconds to go
10:45to nothing going to the end zone
10:48incomplete
10:50George could not come up with it
10:52Connor and coverage
10:54looked like a catchable ball
10:56boy that is a right there and it looked like yeah he put it right in
11:01but Greg George would have been out of bounds on that David I believe
11:05yeah yeah
11:07boys Cardinals can run the ball they have all the time out
11:10a team to throw
11:14fires complete inside the five and into the end zone for the touchdown
11:18that time he connected with Greg Dortch
11:22and the Cardinals are on the board
11:24oh ho ho
11:28he's been targeting Greg Dortch all of preseason
11:32he got him on the crossing
11:34look like he was looking down the field the shot down the field and then decided to check that down the play action that they're running
11:45they're running
11:48empty set here seven down and seven for two
11:55way in trouble
11:56leads one now
11:58throws deep
12:00out of bounds going for Davis
12:02he'll be third and seven
12:05slippery right there
12:07throwing the ball up look at Davis go up and elevate
12:09and elevate
12:11oh
12:13on stride
12:15and in stride
12:17letting them actually convert move the chains
12:19you're going to try a field goal here
12:21oh
12:22it was a great read by Clayton soon right there got the ball up quickly and right on the spot
12:28with Noah tonguey eye
12:29and the city quarterbacks as we look at Blaine Gabbert they've completed their last 17 passes
12:36fix your mic there won't be
12:37hit away point at the third
12:39Arizona down seven
12:41Gabbert to throw again
12:43and taking a shot
12:45open it's caught
12:47at the 30 yard line for a first down
12:49Smith Marsett on the grass got behind the defense it's a game of about
12:54forty five
12:56well there it is right there four man rush
12:59excellent pocket
13:01six now for the Chiefs
13:03from the pocket dumps it off
13:05and a broken tackle results in a first down and a touchdown
13:08Smith Marsett got hit at the 10 yard line by Seth
13:13you'd like to see him come down with it but it still was a little high
13:17great job by Clayton to stepping up in the middle of the game
13:20and a touchdown
13:22Smith Marsett got hit
13:24at the 10 yard line by Seth
13:26you'd like to see him come down with it but it still was a little high
13:29great job by Clayton to stepping up into the pocket
13:33Matt Hawke will punt now
13:34Nolan Cooney was punting earlier
13:36he's not a little bit low
13:37Hawke gets it away
13:39Smith Marsett moving forward
13:41and he left the punt
13:43but boots it out of bounds
13:45so it'll be Kansas City ball when we come back
13:47twenty four to ten the Chiefs lead
13:53in the roster
13:54it's also when the waivers
13:57wire comes rolling around especially that cut
14:00you know what?
14:02could be clever
14:04Cameron has a completion of Bushman
14:06grabbed at the ankles and brought down to the 22
14:09one of the interesting guys on that list is Isaiah Simmons
14:12who's been starting as a third safety
14:14he was on the kickoff teams for
14:16it looked like a questionable call
14:18and then also had a chance to make a hit on the quarterback at the goal line
14:22and could not make the play
14:25Gabbert and second mate
14:28over the middle it's caught
14:30close to the goal line
14:31waiting for the signal
14:35he blamed it look like in the goal line
14:38but the ball did not cross apparently
14:41the play action Gabbert rolling out
14:43back in the end zone throw
14:45Powell is there
14:47and it's a touchdown
14:48well you give the change is something
14:49there's a new wrinkle is
14:51on ways again with player safety in mind
14:56in practice and in these two games he takes it to the 41 yard line
15:13he was on the Broncos practice squad a year ago
15:16David watches Caden Davis right here good blocking out front
15:22but it's a long strider David
15:24he's got these long strides
15:27very deceptive burst and speed from Caden Davis
15:32they headed Aaron Rodgers and that defense with Robert Sala as their head coach is legit
15:38the biggest question mark is can Kyler Murray get back to being the quarterback he was in the first half of 2021 if he does then the Cardinals could be in that game
15:43our conversation
15:50who's the thing
15:52backing up
15:56the biggest question mark is can Kyler Murray get back to being the quarterback he was in the first half of 2021 if he does
16:00back to being the quarterback he was in the first half of 2021.
16:05If he does, then the Cardinals can be in that conversation being one of those teams.
16:10Oh, LaDokun putting on a show, throwing downfield to Ty Frye for a role for a big play.
16:18Wow.
16:19Are you in agreement with me, though, that if Kyler Murray plays like he did...
16:24And I think the kid is going to do it, and when he does, it's going to be trouble.
16:28Oh, LaDokun's pass is caught inside the ten, inside the five, and down about the two-yard line of Smith-Marcel, who is just eating up the Cardinals' secondary tonight, first and goal.
16:41Boy, what a great throw.
16:43Throwing your receiver open.
16:45You can see it once again.
16:47The coverage is not bad.
16:52You've won that fade, and you throw it inside.
16:54That's a great job coming back to the ball.
16:58The Cardinals will head to Minnesota in a few days.
17:03They're going to practice with the Vikings twice, leading into Saturdays.
17:07That was ticky-tack.
17:1210-minute eight remaining ball in the Kansas City 40.
17:17Wow, unloads.
17:19Arias inside the 20, down to the 17.
17:23Looking out of Colorado has had some good moments.
17:26That's a great read by David Blau right there, on the deep end by Eric.
17:35Now get ready for that one, David, because there'll be a woman riding a broom in that fourth quarter.
17:42Trust me on that one.
17:43Meaning there will not be a lot of starters playing, if any.
17:48But there's good work to be had up there, because you're having joint practices with another team.
17:53You imagine it will be quite physical.
17:55Yes.
17:55And I think, again, when you look at how the first team fared, both in offense and defense, we saw some of the things we saw last week.
18:03Wasn't as good as last week, but a lot of the things we've talked about, discipline, physicality, and the defensive side, we saw that.
18:13The Cardinals, they'll lose 38-10 to the Chiefs.
18:17The Cardinals, this has been an exclusive.
