Big Red Rage - Hollywood Adapts To Cardinals Offense

State Farm? Talk to an agent today at eight hundred State Farm, And by Arizona Cardinals Podcasts visit acy Cardinals dot Com, Slash Podcasts, The Rods, Rising Guard, Temperatureizing Vision, flurring, Rage taking over. Here's Paul CALVC, Holly Wood Hollywood and Ron Wolflick. It doesn't get any better than that horn. Unleash the fiard. Is there ever a bad time to draw a parallel? Ron Wolfley? No, this might be accurate, it might not. Only time will tell, But I put

it to you, Ron Wolfley. Do you remember when Aaron Rodgers famously spelled out a word five letters, not four? I believe it was relaxed. Thanks for killing the entire story that I was building too. Oh sorry, the cheeseheads. Look in the script next time. The cheeseheads. This is so tough working with this guy. It's unbelie. Do you remember how the cheese heads were panicking? The year was twenty fourteen, it was September because do you know the

Packers record at the time. Oh, by the way, mister, no at all. It was one in two, okay, one in two. It was after three games. Not only was Green Bay losing, they looked lackluster. I mean, what's wrong with the offense. Everyone was screaming in Wisconsin, right Skans in twenty eighth and total yards. Rogers, with the lowest completion percentage of his career, failed to throw for two

hundred yards in two within three games. It was bad ball where Rogers in the last game had just missed on a big four downplay that would have changed the game. Does any of this sound somewhat familiar? I know where you're going on this one, Bolli right now, but I don't know if the same shoe fits. Metaphorically speaking, like I said, a may or may not be accurate. I leave it up to you. All I can do is

present the evidence for consideration. I throw it out there because let's see one, two, three, four MVPs now Aaron Rodgers has one. And by the way, it also says in this story, because I googled it up from twenty fourteen, he had just started dating actress Olivia Month, so maybe that was the problem. I don't know this, Paul. You're all over this entertainment Tonight thing. I don't know when

it is you're on this ET kick or something. Well funny you say that, because who's our guest tonight, Hollywood Hollywood Marquise, Hollywood Brown. It's the Big Rage presented by santan Ford and Gilbert. We are santan Ford, Paul Calvci here doing the research. Ron Wolfley there just dismissing everything as usual. Oh my goodness, Polly, I just set up the show on a T for you right there with the Hollywood Brown that I not with the e T of course. Paul. Yeah, all right, So where do you start?

Forget the show, where do you start with this team? Because yes, the Arizona Cardinals are one and two. Yes, the offensive numbers are not kind, and now they go in to play a Carolina team they haven't beaten since the two thousand and eight playoffs, including losses each of the last three years. Six in a row total. They're owing two against Matt rule. What says you, Ron Wolfley? You know, the big thing, Paully for me right away is obviously what has happened with Hurricane Ian and the

fact that all this rain. It's one hundred percent chance to rain all day on Friday, Saturday's like seventy percent, and Sunday is around sixty five percent. Bring your slip, Paul, okay, because you're gonna get dumped on. I got a feeling and if in fact it is wet, POULI, you gotta be able to run the ball. This is something we're going to be doing an awful lot of talking about over the next hour. Of course, you gotta be able

to run the ball. And I'm hoping that the Arizonal Cardinals will come out in twelve personnel and they will move Kyler Murray around. They'll put him in the gun, they'll put him in the pistol, they'll put him under center. They don't have to do it forty times a game. But I just want to see this offense evolve a little bit, and maybe the weather conditions will be so bad they'll be forced to and maybe that will benefit

them in the long run. Well, are you referring in a roundabout fashion to the fact that Kyler Murray just threw fifty eight passes, a career high in a game. So yeah, look, Cliff Kingsbury knows, he knows if something's gotta change. In fact, here he is a yesterday meeting the media, just sort of giving a state of the offense, state of the team at one and two. It's not just a couple of plays. I think it's you know, foundationally, you know, from from just what we're all doing right now,

it's not good enough. Obviously, there are a couple of plays where we would love to have back reads that I would you know, every game quarterbacks is gonna have reads they want to take back. But the plays, you know, that are there to be made, the crucial plays that are there to be made. We got to make those plays, and there were some crucial plays in that game where you know, we could have made a difference. Right now, we're just we're all kind of you know, we're all

not doing our job as good as we should. Speaking of reads we didn't make. I wrote down K two instead of K one. That was obviously Kyler Murray talking about the state of the offense. Yeah, he's talking about the state of the offense, and Kyler Murray's right in the middle of it. Yeah. I can tell you, Paulie,

this is just my observation right here. You may disagree with me, but I think at least when you talk about the offensive side of the football and probably the whole team, I honestly think Kyler Murray has played the most consistent of all players in these three games that he's been out here. I don't think they've lost games because Kyler Murray played poorly. I can he play better. You better believe he can play better. And he must play better, there's no doubt about that. But he needs

some help. And that means the offensive line has got to protect a little bit better. And that means you can help the offensive line, I think by running the ball a little bit more, being a little bit more balanced, being a little bit more predictable. Yeah, that's what I'm gonna say, predictable. Put him under center. We all know exactly what happens and the limitations that happen to an

offense when you put a quarterback under center. And that's what I think is the message for every offensive lineman on the ball at that point in time when you put him under center, what you're saying is you got to whip your men. You got to do your job, and if you don't, the play is probably not gonna work well. When it comes to the slow starts, I think everybody's culpable. And by everybody, I mean both sides

of the ball. I mean the slow starts. How about Cardinals defenses allowed three straight scoring drives to open all three games, So it's both sides of the ball. And Kyler included he didn't run the ball through the first three quarters? Is that on him? Is that on the play calling? Is it on the play design. I'm not

exactly certain. When it's third and two on your first possession and you're testing, you know, the best corner in the game and Jalen Ramsey with AJ Green when you need two yards and it looked like you had receivers to the other side who had ten yards of cushion, you easily could have just flipped it two quickly. So I don't know exactly how he's grading out. I agree there are bigger problems than the quarterback right now. As Cliff Kingsbury and all coaches like to say a win

solves virtually everything. And here's Cliff Kingsbury talking to the media this week and just talking about, Look, they're a game away from five hundred. I'm on a Carolina. I know what we've been through to this point and where it can go. And if we can get a two and two in the first month despite everything we've had going on, I think it put us in a good spot and we want to get better on her and Carolina has had our number. It's gonna be a tough game.

We understand that, but that's our focus is just continue to improve and like I said, trying to play a game where we're not chasing the entire time. Man, Polly, Seriously, if they could somehow, some way get to two and two, imagine that, Paul, that here, you've played eight halves and you're one and seven right now in those eight halves, and somehow, some way, if they could win this game, play these two halves that are coming up, play them

well and win this game. Poly Can you imagine if they're two and two, if that is a possibility, knowing how poorly they've played as a team collectively, Sometimes the defense actually look good on one possession. Sometimes the offense actually look good on one possession rarely to the special

teams always look good. But man, if you could put it all together, somehow, some way at two and two, I'll take that all day as opposed to one and three, because that first half against the Rams certainly was not at fourteen yards rushing by the Cardinals in the first half they had five drops. It's more than any team had it in a full game, you know. I mean you had again the defense that was discombobulated, times given up chunk plays, the alignment and assignment against Sean McVay.

Obviously they had their way early in the game. So there's a lot to correct, there's no doubt about it. And we're gonna talk to Hollywood Brown about all of the above, including his fourteen grabs for a buck forty Hey, it's episode forty three of the day Pash Podcast featuring NFL and Fox Top analyst Greg Olsen, available wherever you

get your podcasts and following on Twitter at pashpod. Marquise Hollywood Brown, Welcome to the az He is next in the Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford in Gilbert Murray back to pass wide receiver screened at the la bottom the far side of the forty five. At the forty louse is prot of the thirty five and out of bounds. I'm a par side. They spot him out inside the thirty at the twenty seven. That's a gate at twenty partcase Brown by far his best game. I

though he's came blow. I know he's gonna do. He got fourteen balls to day. Good things happening when you get the ball. You know the guys that make place, and you know he made place. That is Kyler on Hollywood Brown, number one to number two, the one two Pawntron Wolfley. We still say at Calvaci Consulting, we coined that. But we lost out to Cardinals Twitter. Okay, it's all right. You know you can't win them all. Cardinals didn't win

the Rams game. Okay, bad. If you saw Hollywood Brown miked up on Eacy Cardinals dot com, you saw some

of that video, you heard some of the audio. Anytime you can frustrate Jalen Ramsey, you know there's that's a that's a little win right there, A little bet, little bet is there a play And we're gonna talk with Hollywood Brown here on this very special edition of The Big Red Rage, brought to you by Santan Ford in Gilbert and before yours, troining Ron will Flease say, hello, I just like to know right off the top, Marquis, is there a play where Jalen Ramsey does not talk?

I mean, like, guy just talks NonStop, doesn't he? Yeah? Yeah, I mean I know him personally, so okay, people ain't talking like nothing crazy. But he's a competitor, so he used that as you know, as attacked it for him, you know, to getting his opponent's head. Like I don't want to get too personal here, but I mean, like you and Jalen, you guys have hung out. Yeah, I mean yeah yeah, offseason. You know I go to his events,

to charity events. Uh. You know, we was under the same uh you know, financial advisors, so you know we're pretty we're pretty cool. Does that ever work? I mean, cornerbacks just talking and talking and trying to play the mental warfare? Does that ever work against the receiver? I mean, I don't know. I'm not on that side of the ball, you know, I mean it never affected me, but I mean he works for him. You know, he has been having a pretty good career. So he's doing something right.

That's right. How about you, though, Hollywood, I did do you talk to you enjoy talking during a game? Do you like to yap it up with somebody? Nah? I don't talk I pretty much just you know, I'll probably laugh, just kind of like I'd probably just I got too much respect for the game to just go out there, you know, just trash talking. I just like to, well, you heard, Kyler. What do you have to say about

your game against the Rams? A career high fourteen catches on seventeen targets, a buck forty through the air, and you got a team best grade from Pro Football Focus for what it's worth, a seventy six point six. And you also played seventy nine out of the eighty three offensive snaps. So it looks like you're pretty comfortable on this Cardinals offense right now. How does it feel? I mean, I feel like, you know, like you said, those seventy

nine snaps. I gotta keep, you know, working my legs to get stronger to you know, be able to run fast our game. But I feel like I'm getting acclimated weekend a week out. I just want to, you know, turn it into some wins. I mean, whatever they asked me to do, I'm ready to do it. So we're just trying to get in that win, called him. Do you feel like the chemistry is getting better with you and Kyla right now? Definitely? Um, like it's some some

of the stuff you know, I just we died in on. Uh. Kind of it just reminds me back on our days that OUs kind of like, all right, I know, I know what's going on here. We're looking at the same stuff and that's good to have, you know, early in the season, you know, uh, going forward for us, Marquis, is there a play an example this year where you and Kyler worked that chemistry in a game? Is there one you could just point it out that to you. Guys were on the same page and it actually worked

in one of these first three games. Uh, I mean there's plenty of them. I mean the touchdown play from Kansas City. Uh, we saw zero. He kind of looked at me, and you know, I had like a corner route, but I didn't run it like a traditional corner route because we knew he had zero. I knew he had a man free on him for Blitz, so I knew he was gonna put it up fast, and so I just kind of ran to the popline or like this last game, I think I was in like a tight

split cornerback like twelve years off. I supposed how to go. I kind of like Will did look back at him right on time, back shoulder like that was to play. So it's just stuff like that is just like you can't you can't teach you. That's impressive, Markus Hollywood Brown our guest. I mean that you've achieved that through three games so far. It's interesting because there was a route chart that was put online where most of your routes

were to the left side. Cliff Kingsbury has asked about that, said, yeah, it's a process that he envisions maximizing how he's going to use you in different ways as the season evolves. I mean, how much more do you expect your role

or your responsibilities to grow? You're thinking, I mean I trust Cliff and you know, I know he's gonna put him in the best position to see so you know, for me, there's my first time playing on the left, so just to go out there and you know, get comfortable on that side when he does move me, you know around and when I'm on the right side, you know, I feel as comfortable because that's why I've been playing that.

So I feel like, you know, he has a plan together, and when we get our guys back, you know, I trust that he's gonna do the right thing and we'll remember what Hollywood told us after the game. Didn't Kyler check in to the deep shot? Yeah? Yeah, he's changing to that. Yeah, yeah, no, I think that's yeah, PAULI, it's very very cool. But so I just want to be clear on this. Would you like to be moved around more or do you prefer to be lined up to the left of Kyler? Uh? Yeah, I feel like

I could. I could play left right slide, you know, I come out of the batfield. Whatever whatever needed to be done to get that dub, I'm willing to do it. So I'm pretty sure he's gonna get creative and you know, get us going. And with the injuries, you probably are going to be used. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I almost see entirety yeah this game, right, So, how do you guys

speak can maximizing? How do you guys maximize this passing attack and get more of a downfield passing attack, because you know, the stats and the yards per pass completion aren't exactly where the Cardinals wanted right now. I think it's about execution. I mean, if you look at the games, you know, the stats don't really tell the full story. We've been down. So when you're down and playing from behind,

the defense kind of dictates what you gotta do. I mean, they know we're passing the ball, so it's like, if I'm a defense, I'm up. I'm not gonna let them throw it deep and get back in the game. So that's kind of been why we've been just taking away they give us and not listening to the outside noises about deep shots and all that and this. We like, let the game come to us. It's like, you know in basketball, take those tools. Take those tools, you know,

then the three A come. How is this offense developing right now? And how much more do you see it improving as the season goes along. I feel like I can envision the improving a lot. I mean for me, you know, all these injuries for me to go out there and you know, kind of show my skills set, and you know, when gods started to come back. You know, these guys been here. They come from an offense already, so I feel like we'll all be able to complement

each other once everybody's fully healthy. You know, you sound like basically everyone in the locker room. There might be some noise out there, right, and maybe even some panic there, I say panic from Cardinals fans, but not in the locker room. Yeah, you guys. I mean I think I don't know, talking to guys, they immediately sight out, well, there's a couple of undefeated teams, there's a couple of winless teams, and then everyone else has bunched to one

or two wins and there's still fourteen games to play. Yeah, there just seems to be that calm in that locker room. Would you agree with that? Yeah? I mean we got guys that that's don't been through things. I mean I wasn't here last year, but they were saying, like, you know, they started off hot and you know end up, you know, going on the losing street. I've been on teams, well, we started off losing when I was with the Ravens,

and I think we went on like twelve straight. So it's like I've just been telling the guys like it really doesn't matter. I mean, go one week at a time at the end of the day. You don't look up until it's at the end. Hollywood. Do you see your role changing at all when d Hop gets back? Um? No, I mean I don't practice with him when when he when he was here. I feel like it just it'll help everybody. I mean, with a name like d Hop

out there, defense got to respect it. So wherever we moved around now, I feel like I'm able to compliment his game, he able to come at mind Rundell Moore. Uh, you know, Dort's coming to live and we got Urts. So I'm really I'm really excited for when when those guys come back. You had a pro bowler, Mark Andrews, but that's a tight end. I mean, to have an all Pro receiver actually break the huddle with you, that's got to trickle down in terms of what opportunities you

might get. Definitely, Um, I'm excited. I mean, you know, he's he's on us about, you know, making plays, you know, even when he's not here. So just to know he's gonna be out there giving it all. You know, we're competitive, so we're gonna go out there and you know we're trying to make our plays, and I feel like we'll all just jail jail nicely. You know, Hollywood, I love watching your play. I think you go about your business

in the right way here. But if there an area of your game you need to improve, you think you need to improve, and if so, what would that be. I think I want to continue to improve them everything. But I definitely want, you know, big players. You know, if if the if the deep SHOT's not there, I want to be able to take a screen fifty yards. I want to be able to take a slant to the house. And you know, I've been close, but you know, I want to actually finish it and you know, getting

the ends on them some long rest. So so far this season, the one two punch in terms of receivers has been Hollywood Brown and Greg Dortch. And we were talking to Greg Dortch earlier this season, in fact that it's locker, and he revealed a little factoid from early in your guy's careers, coming out of college, going to the NFL, the draft process to combine, and here's Greg Dortch. I ain't gonna I was kind of like hype, but I was like, dang, they pay me. With Marcus Brown,

because I didn't know him at the time. You just hear about him on the TV. You see him on the TV, him in k one Ye, and I'm like, okay, Hollywood Brown, like we're coming out together, like this is basically my competition. But now we're a roommate, so like, let me get to know this guy. And he was cool, man, it was. It was really cool. We had a lot of things in common. He's not a big guy either, No, he just plays with that swag. Man. He's from Florida.

He's very confident in himself. You know what I'm saying. I feel like I played the same way too, so we kind of could relate to that. So that was from the Big Red Rage, and that was on having you as a roommate at the combine. Yeah, that's interesting, I mean, and you you could tell his respect for your game because there he was coming from what wake for us. Yes, yes, you know, and you're on TV and rose Balls and so forth. So he was the well intimidated to start. And it's crazy because I knew

of him. You know, I'm a student of the game, so I study Artors series. I knew about him coming out, you know, coming out of wake for us, and I knew he was a ball player. So when I got here and he was here, I'm like, okay, yeah, I know, I know what I got in great doors. You know, I know what I gotta did you did you play video games at all? Did you have the opportunity? You know it's at the combine? Nah, But neither one of

us participated. I mean I had a Liz Frank and he had like a risk injury, and he was just talking about his risk injury and how he not able to you know, showcase what he can do. And I was just telling me, like, don't stress it, man, like you put it on tape. You know. I watched the tape and you to me, you wanted the top receivers in this class, and that's what I was telling them. So seriously, you would watch this tape. Yeah, I watched this tape. Yeah I watched everybody. I watch everybody tape.

All right, So, Hollywood Brown is our guest. Speaking of other receivers and injuries, Rondale Moore proclaimed himself today to be ready to go. In fact, you had a pretty short and intense media session. Let me tell you, if everyone's as intense as Rondale Moore on game day. This team's gonna be good to go, because he wasn't really all that interested in engaging the media and in depth answers. Put it that way, what have you seen out of Rondale this week? Uh, he's ready to go. He's ready

to go. I'm excited for him. Um. You know, he gets a new he gets a you know, bigger road than what he had last year, and he's ready to showcase what he can do. And we're excited, you know, to see him play. You know, I know that you're ready to showcase your video game skills when any whenever, anybody will watch. This is the reason why I was I was asking you, um before we actually went on air here, what is the best video game out there? Right now? What do you think is the best video

game out there? See, I'm I'm a gamer, so I can't really say a best game because so many avenues of games. I mean, you got shooting game, sports games, you know, RPGs, you got all the type of games. So it's really your preference, Like what's in your wheelhouse? What's your go to? If someone's gonna channe up right now? It's Madden two k Call of Duty, Rainbow and FIFA my five games right now? Okay, whoa the Call of Duty? Why do you love the Call of Duty? Man? Man?

It's nothing like it. I mean, you know, get the guys together and you're hoping that awards on lobby and you know, especially especially being an athlete, and you know these guys they got hours playing the game. You know, me K One and guys, we don't play for that long. So when we get on there and really win and dominate, it's like satisfying to know, like, you know, we're just that good. Hey. K One has his Face Clan connection, right yeah? Yeah? So I mean do you ever get

any tips from those guys? How does that work that whole? I mean his association with Face Clan? Yeah, I mean I've been playing with K one before the Face I'm better than k winning video games. That It isn't not that he really can't teach me, but you know, we go at it speaking a call dudey shots fired right there on that one. Okay, Yeah, who talks the most trash in the locker room though? About their video game playing ability? Who's the biggest talker when it comes to

video games? Uh? It's between k one and Tweezy and me. Yeah, okay, all right, let's go. So you don't talk about you don't talk on the field. Were talking, you know, it's crazy. We're all good in video games. Yeah, like we always on the same team, but we always talking trash to

each other's way. All right, More with Marquis Hollywood Brown as we continue the Big Red Rage presented by Santan Ford in Gilbert Bayfield, the troller plumes it over the middle land called by Hollywood Bride, still running, Holly crowd all the way, touch down our Colo hold on eighty four yards. Once he turns on the jets impus over that dude can fly lay Fair fus car running Holly run brom not dot blind Mayfield. Why's up? Dob the field? Holly?

Why dots down seniors seventy seventy yards? Who is this kid? Where did he come from? It was a junior college transfer from the College of the Canyons, That's where he came from. But he originated out of Hollywood, Florida, and hence the nickname Joel Quatt with a great Gus Johnson on the call True or false. Gus Johnson is responsible for your nickname? True true? And was it just organic during that game? Was that the Oklahoma State game? Yeah? I mean he first called me and they called the

Kansas State game. I kind of didn't play first half, got didn't have time. I was going off and he was like, Hollywood Brown. He was calling me that, and you know, guys started calling me around the locker room. Then that Oklahoma State game was you know, national televised game, and you know I wrote the school worker. He was calling me that, and then it just kind of everybody called me that from now, Marquis, when did you know? When did you know you were faster than everybody else

around you? When did you know this? I kind of knew it earlier. I mean I started playing football and I was six, and that was my bread and butter fast, And you know, I got the nickname Jet from my little league coaches, and that's been like my name all the way up until people start calling me Hollywood. And you know, all my friends back at home still call me Jet. But from a young get I knew, you know,

I was pretty fast. Well, that game, you had nine grabs, two hundred and sixty five yards receiving and a touchdown. Two touchdowns actually in that one. That so yeah, some school record numbers and worthy of another nickname. Do you ever do you ever long for the days where your speed takes someone by surprise? With all the scouting in the film, I mean, that must have been such a gratifying feeling back when you would take someone by surprise with a speed and I'm guessing that doesn't happen a

whole bunch anymore. Noah. That's when you uh, you know, credited coach Riley and my receiver coach, they really honed in and told me, you know, you know, your speed is good, but you got to become a complete receiver if you want to you know, sustain and played this game for a long time and so like going into my last year at OU, that's when I really start studying the wires position to make sure, you know, I can't just be a speed guy. You know, guys can

sit back and just play deep. So you gotta be able to take a slant to the crib. You gotta be able to run in the middle, digs, curls, and that's kind of been like, you know, that's that's been my thing thing for a few years now. What are your thoughts, Smart Keys in regard to playing in Charlotte. Of course, after Hurricane ing and all the devastation, all prayers out to you know, the families affected. I mean,

you know, I got family in Florida. You know they've been preparing for the hurricane, and you know it's been rough in some places. So just to go out there in Charlotte and just be some entertainers and you know, you can get them away from what they're really going through and try to, you know, put on the show for him. It's true sports at its best entertainment. It's an escape for a lot of people. Right, you give three hours of entertain Haymond, get their minds off off reality,

and then there's reality. You're going against Baker Mayfield, so you know, really well and we're getting out a little bit, so you you give us. I mean I can walk around and ask defenders about Baker Mayfield and this team played him last year in Cleveland. But what do you know about Bike? I know Big is a competitor. I love Big Man like he's he's a great friend, he's a great person, and uh, you know, I'm excited for

him with this new opportunity. You know what I mean, I hope we we we uh you know, sack him catch them interceptions. But I hope he has a great year. I mean, I'm proud of Bate, you know, just the press. He's coming what he had to persevere. But he's a competitor. I never gonna get his all. You know, he gonna want to be a k one. So no, you're gonna come out ready to play. I was just going to say that right there, because he's you're all friends, You're

you're all buds man. I mean this, they ever get difficult it all, you know, you Baker and Kyler? And can you compare and contrast Kyler Murray and Baker Mayfield. Uh they if you did one of those grounds with the two circles, they're both on the outside like they on their own two things. I think the only thing they got the same is you know how bad they wanted to win. You know what, It's funny you say

that because I just found this quote. This was Baker last year going into the Cleveland game Cardinals and Browns, right and he was asked about Kyler and Baker said, and I quote, you know what he might show it differently, but behind closed doors, Kyler is quite the trash talker. Don't let him fool you. Yeah, and those two especially like when you and Kyler were on the scout team, Yeah right, I mean it got really competitive and Oklahoma

practiced in it. Yeah, we used to kill him. We said kill him, like this should be our team right now, this we should be out there. And Baker must have I mean, seriously, he must have looked over his shoulder a little bit when you guys were tearing up on scout team, and I'm guessing that fueled him a little bit. Oh yeah, definitely. Um, I mean he wanted to leave no doubt. You know, that was his team and it was it was his team. He led us and he won the Heisman, and you know, Kyler came back and

he won the Husman. So they were very competitive. Is there one thing Marquise that people need to know about Baker Mayfield, one thing that they might not know right now. I think they need to know like he's a team player, Like it's a it's a narrative out there about him, like he's selfish or he's you know. I feel like Baker is one of the greatest players I ever played with as far as you know, he helped me become you know, he brought something out of me that I

didn't know I had in me. You know, when I was at Oklahoma, you know, I was down, I wasn't playing, and he was one of the one of the players that you know, brought it out of me. So you know, to this day, you know, I think Big, I love Big and they're Baker Mayfields. Last year he was throwing you a touchdown in the Rolls ball. Yeah. And when you went to Pasadena, A lot of stories were done about how you went to junior college route from Florida

to southern California. And while you were at junior college because there's no scholarships in California for JUCO, you had to work your way through school. And where where did you work? Tell everyone, we're at that six Flags Imagine Mountain. Yes, yes, first job right there, Okay, and then and you sort of worked your way up. If I saw the quotes in the story, where did you start and then where did you end up? What was your job in particular? I started off as on the kids like operating. I

was a ride operator kids ride. Yes, I started off in the Merry go Round that until I got you know, fulled up to the full throttle you know, the big ride, one of the largest you know hoops in the real fastest hoop or whatever. So I got upgraded to that. So are you talking about like a roller coaster? Yeah? Yeah, yeah? And what was your little poy? What did you do to people? You had a little countdown? How did that work? Yeah? Yeah, I used to do a mess with people, like count

them down three to two one. Oh wait, I think I think some of them buckled or something and nail looking I pressed the button. Well, that's that's funny because well, if you might remember, there was recently, it was a couple of years ago. We had Cliff Kingsbury on the podcast and and Marquis, you have something in common with your head coach, right, okay, working at theme parks as a young man. As we flash back to twenty nineteen, yours Julie Lisa Matthews with Cliff Kingsbury talking about what

he did one summer for a job. My first job, I worked at this water park called Schlivan. It's the biggest water park in the country in my hometown. It was trash pickup. I had my choice between a big lifeguard trash pick up. You could be mobile and walk around and met girls, and then as a lifeguard, they just floated by you. So how old are you? I

was fifteen? Okay, yeah, that's job girls. An isn't an easier though, the job description of a lifeguard and maybe you know, but the trash pickup you can kind of duck out. You were on your own pretty much most of the day, so it was it was the way to go. Coach Cliff always has a game play. He had a game plane that was that was that's in. You're staying there. I mean, how often do you think back of your humble beginnings and how what you've made out of yourself and just sort of maybe look around

and go, wow, it's been quite a journey. And I know you have a long way to go. You're still really young your NFL career, but I mean, to go from A to B to where you are now, it's taking a lot of hard work, hasn't it. Yes, I

just thank God every day. I mean, I walk around, try to keep a smile on my face, keep everybody positive, because you know, I look around when I see a guy like Gred Deutsch, you know, and I see the position I am when we came into Comebound like that could have been me, or any situation could have been me. You know, I couldn't have been in this spot right now, even with the talent that I have. I know plenty of guys with the talent. It's just some stuff. You know.

God has a plan for it. So I just come out and I'm thankful and I just try to that brain, that light and positive, you know, to the team. Yeah, and you do that, man, you really do, Marquis. It's one of the things I love about you the most. How might the weather change this offense going forward? How might the weather impact how you guys play on Sunday? Don't I don't think the weather it's gonna impact. I mean,

we want to be a super Bowl team. We don't care what we play in to be honest, cold, heat, sleep, whatever we gotta do. We gotta win. What are you gonna see in Carolina's secondary? You got what Dante Jackson, C J Henderson, uh and yeah Horn and JC Horn and jac Horne. That's a pretty good group of corners. Yeah. I think Presley is gonna be the best gap secondary that we're gonna face so we uh, you know, we got a task in front of us. Yeah, how do

they look on tape? Because I agree with you. I think kid, the strength of their team might actually be their secondary and their past defense. They look good the whole defense. You know, they swarm around to the ball. They played hard, they played together. Um man, you know they they sound so for us, it's gonna come down the execution. Got to execute? What what what our job is? And you know, I asked James Connor earlier today. Kyler said after the game about that first quarter and the Cardinals.

If you have to score a point in the first quarter in three games, he called it, quote bad ball. Yeah, what does that mean? How do you define that? What can't you guys let happen again? You can't. You can't just miss a block. You can't miss ay can miss a catch. You gotta be on one team. You know, all eleven play for each other, blacky man at one one person out of each eleven do their job. That's called execution. And if we execute, that's how points points

get on the board. So Marquise, when when conditions are wet and it looks like man, it's supposed to rain one hundred percent UM all day Friday, and then I think in ninety percent chance of rain on Saturday. It's going to taper off a little bit more by Sunday, but the conditions, it's just gonna be super super wet, and especially if it rains during the game. Who is the advantage in that situation? You or the defender? Um,

I feel like we both at it. I mean, probably for the defender because they're not trying to catch the ball anyway. But I feel like I look at it. Both teams have to deal with it, you know. I kind of look like it's an offensive game, So I look at the other offense. All right, they receiver's got to deal with it. Their offense got to deal with it, So we gotta deal with it. Uh, they got to throw the ball. We have a third the ball. If they're gonna we gotta run the ball. They have to

run the ball. So it's it's kind of that's how I look at it. I never really look at you know, what the defense got to do. I look at the opposing offense. They did put in field turf, so maybe just maybe you know, they field might have more traction than you think, yeah, we'll see, we'll see, you know, maybe you get a jet sweep here or something like that. Here's a question for if you want to know about a corner. Ask a receiver. We're expecting to see trayvon

Mullen playing the secondary. What have you seen out of the Cardinal's newest corner when you've been out on the field. Uh, he's very he has the knowledge for sure, and he's long. Uh he got great hips. And I played against him last year when he was at the Raiders, and he's he's pretty good. I mean a six two corner. Yeah, it's it's interesting, right, You don't see that too often when a guy comes up on you like that. Yeah,

just as presents alone as a quarterback. You look out there and you see a six two guy, you know that kind of throw your timing off because you want to make sure you know he's not in that spot where you think he's gonna be. Yeah. Yeah, Marquis, look at October looms Man, did you get into Halloween at all? Oh? Yeah, definitely. I mean also I'm in dressing up taking the kids Trigg and Tree and so nice. Well, what are you going to be this year? I'm not sure. I'm not sure.

Way way until you know, I let my girl figure all that up. You could do the whole Great Gatsby thing again, you know, I know you did that recently at the birthday party. But yeah, yeah, yeah, it's nice. That was nice. That was that was pretty good. All Right, you have any other videos coming out from your production company? Uh, we actually are going to drop going on Hollywood episode soon,

I think probably next week. So nice, Okay, all right, Well, we'll be sure to tell Kyler and uh and Tweezy that you know, you're number one in the Power poll of video gamers. Okay, we'll be able to make sure. Look, this is what they're gonna say, Tweezy, he's only gonna say he's good in one game. You know, he only plays one game. Me and Kyler play all the games, and he gonna he gonna say he's better than me. But we all know it's just because he's a quarterback

that they're gonna give him the you know. Yeah, it's quite a bad boat. It's greated on a different scale. Yeah right, okay, we get it, Hollywood. We enjoyed our Thank you appreciate it, Thank you. There you go the great Olinwood Brown here on the big red Rage Cardinals getting ready for Week four and the longest road trip of the season at the Carolina Panthers. And yeah, at a wolf's point, to Marquis's point, those corners might be at the strength of that defense will continue with a

big red rage. Right after this second and nine of the twenty nine two receivers right Fitzgerald of the laft Warner barking out the call. Play clock at three. Kirk got the play away back to frow Warner with a ton of time throwing right side fits open, caught at the five, heading for the pylon, and he is gonna be ruled Cardinals. Larry fitz Carol, do you believe it? And Larry Fitzgerald framps it down their throw. Larry Fitzgerald,

you are absolutely ridiculous. Oh my goodness, vividly remember that being on the Cardinals sideline. That was two thousand and eight, the playoff game Round two, Cardinals run to Super Bowl forty three. That's also the last time the Arizona Cardinals have won in Carolina. They've lost six in a row against the Carolina Panther. It's including each of the last three years, Ron Rivera and then Matt Rule the last

two times have been the head coaches. It is the Big Red Race presented by Santan Ford in Gilbert Paul calvcire Ron Willfley reacting there and before we get to the matchup, would you think of Hollywood? How about? How about when you asked him a about the chemistry with

him and Kyler? He immediately cited the touchdown catch in the fourth quarter at KC where they both looked at each other and recognized to his zero coverage and he adjusted his route because he knew Kyler would have to get rid of it quickly and fooled they connected for six I know Paul that that was one of my biggest takeaways right there, just the fact these guys have that type of connection with each other, that type of chemistry. We know that, we've heard that, we saw it that

year they played at Oklahoma together, There's no doubt. But man, to actually hear him pontificate on it, that was really cool. And then he talked about Baker Mayfield and what was his quote? He said, He's gonna want to be Kyler. Now, yeah, those two are ultra competitive. And then his comparison where if you take like the ven diagram with the two circles, he said, basically the only intersect for just like one percent. And that's how ultra competitive both guys are. Otherwise they're

totally different dudes. Yeah, you know it's amazing too, because Lincoln Riley has weighed in on this and he said they competed at everything. They competed before games. Who could throw the best spiral in pregame warm upper Well, I mean everything was for the taking between those two guys. I think that's really really cool that they're as good as they are and as friendly as they are to

each other. And you know what, for all the Cardinals slow starts this season and lack of energy and intensity and urgency at times, et cetera, I really wonder if just the rivalry between Kyler and Baker Cliff and his former quarterback Baker Mayfield. I wonder if that's just the tie the lifts all boats, you know what I mean, just ensures that everybody's ready to go based on that. And then you're also going to have the potential challenge

of weather. And here's Kelvin Beecham, the Cardinals starting right tackle Wolf what he had to say today on whether weather, you know, in clement weather might equal more of a run game. You know, those are the type of game as office Alma you want, you know, you love those games where it's really on you. I mean, we hadn't had one of those games just yet, but hopefully you know this the weekend that you know, we can be the reason that we're we're successful and people can lean

on us same. We know that we have the guys on on this officsive line I can do so, Paul, I think this is it. This is going to be the key to this game, if in fact the weather holds and it's gonna be as bad as we kind of think that it is. I think this is going to be a game that is going to be settled on the line of scrimmage. And the Panthers can run the ball, Paul. They can run the ball. They do

it very very well. And Christian McCaffrey for everything he is, he hasn't practiced last two days, but there's a national report. They expect him to play on Sunday. They're optimistic, and like Vance Joseph said today, the first thing in the game plan is Christian McCaffrey talking to guys in the locker room. Christian McCaffrey almost one, two and three in the game plan, you got to keep all eyes on him,

both the run game the pass game. You know, we've seen what he's done to the Cardinals, you know, in the past. So there's that. There's also a collection of pretty good receivers. Even though they haven't got their passing gaming gear, they definitely have some talent and white out as well. Yeah, they really have struggled though for the

most part, to throw the ball with any consistency. This is an offense built around rundown situations, attack the line of scrimmage, and then use play action to throw the ball. It is Christian McCaffrey you mentioned in Pauli's a much better runner in between the tackles than most people give them credit for. They run the tackle zone and they

use play action. They get into the power personnel groups and run their version of power the Power without the poll twenty two and twenty three double, and then they use the play action off of that, they run the inside zone, Polly and you guessed it. They use play action. After that, everything looks like something else. For the most part that is their offense and what gave the Cardinals problems last week that play action and some of the

other aspects. Although they're two totally different offenses. I get at Sean McVay and what Carolina is running. But honestly, well and Hollywood mention it. You know, when it's the Cardinals offense, the key is just don't get behind, so then you can get to more than half the game plan. Cliff Kingsbury told us on his TV show, The Players

say it in the locker room. You know, if we're down from the get go, and the Cardinals if yet to lead a regulation this season, by the way, okay, and that means that, you know, all of a sudden, we're playing catch up. We're going two minute and we have to throw out half the game plan. So in some ways I wonder, Okay, we still don't know this Cardinals office, and it's an unknown until they get a

lead and they can actually run what they want to. No, you're right, Paulie, but sometimes, especially in the first half, you've got to stay in your offense. You have to stay in your offense even if you are down a couple of possessions. That's true, and They did that in the second half against the Raiders, right, they kept running the ball even though they were down twenty to nothing in the half. Absolutely, that's a valid point, no doubt. Hey,

special thanks to Marquis Hillowood Brown. That was great. Jim Alma hundred executive producer, Technical director Cody Fincher for Ron Won't play on ball CALVC Cardinals going to Carolina?
