I wanted to start though first today 95 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 6: with a little talk around the defensive coordinator interviews. It 96 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 6: feels like and because you can't really say it for 97 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 6: sure because you don't really know. 98 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 7: I don't know. 99 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 6: I've not talked to ownership about this, but it feels 100 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,239 Speaker 6: like they've narrowed this search down to three or four 101 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 6: guys at this point. You've got Christian Parker, You've got 102 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 6: Deronte Jones, You've got Jonathan Gannon, and Jim Leonard. Although 103 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 6: he has not had a second interview, the conventional thought 104 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,559 Speaker 6: is the reason he has not had a second second 105 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 6: interview is because he is his team is still playing. 106 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 2: Thenver Broncos are still in it. They have a game. 107 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 6: This weekend, so we'll see how that all pans out. 108 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 6: But I remember last week GOT you were saying you 109 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 6: kind of prefaced it with I don't really know these guys, 110 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 6: So I thought it's a good opportunity for us to 111 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 6: bring in Tommy, and Tommy who's kind of done some 112 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 6: research on these guys, let him give us some pros 113 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 6: and cons for each of these and then we'll discuss 114 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 6: from there how we rank these guys and what we 115 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 6: would like to say. So time I want to turn 116 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 6: over to you, want to give me some pros and 117 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 6: cons for first, Christian Parker. 118 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 10: Christian Parker, Okay, So that's the Eagles defensive pass game 119 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 10: coordinator in DB's coach Pros. Of the four finalists that 120 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 10: you lined out, he's one of the three that have 121 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 10: already come in for second in person interviews. 122 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 8: He has the best track record developmentally. 123 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 10: Develop Patricks are tanning to an All Pro and two 124 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 10: Pro Bowl nods. He joined his rookie season when the 125 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 10: Broncos drafted him. His rookie season, he had four picks 126 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 10: and a pick six, and then he goes to the 127 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 10: Eagles and both Cooper dejene and Quinnyon Mitchell are All 128 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 10: Pros in their second seasons, and then back to back 129 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 10: top ten passing defense in the last two seasons. They've 130 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 10: been in the top half of the NFL interceptions in 131 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 10: both years, both top ten overall and takeaways, And of course, 132 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 10: the familiarity with the NFC East is what you're going 133 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 10: to get with Christian Parker. The cons with Christian Parker 134 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 10: has not been an NFL defensive coordinator. He has no 135 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 10: coordinator experience at all at any level. He's only been 136 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 10: in the NFL since twenty nineteen. So that you wonder 137 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 10: could you handle all of the responsibilit that come with 138 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 10: being a defensive play caller in terms of the linebackers 139 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 10: in the front seven. Sure, the secondary is great, but 140 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 10: you know so much comes from your pass rush and 141 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 10: all that. So do you feel like he has a 142 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 10: good feel for being able to call an entire defense. 143 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 10: That would be the pros and cons there with mister Parker, all. 144 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 2: Right, going to Deronte Jones. 145 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 9: Yeah, no time, you know something that'll really help a 146 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 9: secondary's coach. And all these guys are like secondaries, all 147 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 9: of them are all of them are forget it. Yeah, 148 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 9: how much do you need to coach Quinn Williams opposed 149 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 9: to some of the guys that's in our secondary? So 150 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 9: just in cowboy Land, right, all right, Aaron White, GotY 151 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 9: know whoever you know, d line coach or whatever. Hey, 152 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 9: you just take those guys and you know, knock yourself 153 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 9: out and where the most work is needed. 154 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 7: I'll just go and do that thing. 155 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 10: So please time, I would push back a little bit 156 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 10: on that though, in the sense that you need I 157 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 10: think a pass rush. 158 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 8: Is such a big problem for you. 159 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 10: That's the lack thereof if you're putting way too much 160 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 10: stress on your secondary. If you can't sure you can 161 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 10: coach these guys to be much better. But if nobody's 162 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 10: getting after the quarterback then and they're covering for five 163 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 10: six seconds, you're asking a lot there. 164 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 6: And then other thing I'll say on that too, is 165 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 6: when you're having to coordinate all that because you need 166 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 6: it to match up. You need what you're doing on 167 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 6: the front end and match up with the back end. 168 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 6: Because he has not done that, that's where you're taking 169 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 6: a little bit of a risk because he just hasn't 170 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 6: been in a situation where he's had to coordinate. Okay, 171 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 6: here's how I want the rush to go and how 172 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 6: I want the secondary to compliment that. Right, that's the 173 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 6: part that I would be a little bit concerned. 174 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 8: That's true, all right. 175 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 10: Deronte Jones, Vikings, defensive pass game coordinator your pros. He 176 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 10: helped lead the number two passing defense of the NFL 177 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 10: and passing yards allowed number two and passing touchdowns allowed. 178 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 8: This past year they've been back to back. 179 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 10: Top ten takeaway defenses, and he could bring some of 180 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 10: those aspects of that Brian Flores approach that Brian Schoenheimer 181 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 10: just raved about that week they played the Vikings in 182 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 10: terms of you're gonna get a lot of cover zero. 183 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 10: They're gonna be one of the top blitz teams in 184 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 10: the league, and that's going to come with you to 185 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 10: Dallas a little bit. You would think that that's probably 186 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 10: part of his philosophy, although a lot of his experiences 187 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 10: come in the secondary. The cons similarly to Parker, has 188 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 10: no NFL DC experience. They struggled in twenty three and 189 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 10: twenty four with Jones there in the same position as 190 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 10: the defensive pass game coordinator. In passing yards allowed, they 191 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 10: finished twenty fourth and twenty eighth respectively in the NFL 192 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 10: nineteenth and twenty fifth in interceptions in twenty twenty three 193 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 10: and twenty twenty five respectively. And then the question that 194 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 10: I have with him kind of them similarly to Parker, 195 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 10: is is the heavy blitz rate and it getting home 196 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 10: the reason why the Vikings defense has been so successful 197 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 10: in the back half of the secondary and the corners 198 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 10: and the safeties. And then with Parker versus Jones, the 199 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 10: Vikings and Brian Flores and general lean heavily on veteran 200 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 10: players as opposed to some of their younger guys. You 201 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 10: look at some of the guys in that secondary, Harrison 202 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 10: Smith and players like that have been around for a 203 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 10: long time. They like those older players, whereas Parker has 204 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 10: more of a developmental history. So there's a little bit 205 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 10: of a difference between those two. 206 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about Jonathan. 207 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 10: Gainn former Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon. He's interviewing with 208 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 10: the Packers this week. Also interviewed with the commander, so 209 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 10: two NFC East teams in the mix. There pros he 210 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 10: fits the bill in terms of former experience right these coordinators, 211 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 10: The last five defensive coordinators in Dallas have been former 212 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 10: head coaches or defensive coordinators at some point in their careers. 213 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 10: Three years of Arizona and then two years as the 214 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 10: defensive coordinator with the. 215 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 8: Eagles before that. 216 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 10: He is familiar with Clayton Adams, the offensive coordinator for 217 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 10: the Cowboys, hired him as his offensive line coach with 218 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,719 Speaker 10: the Cardinals back in twenty twenty three, and then when 219 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 10: his time as an Eagles defensive coordinator. He was top 220 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 10: ten in total defense in both of those seasons. There 221 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 10: were number two in twenty twenty two with the number 222 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 10: one passing defense the NFL. 223 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 8: The cons buckle up a little bit. 224 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 10: As the head coach of the Cardinals, he never had 225 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 10: a defense that finished better than twenty first total yards allowed. 226 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 2: Was he calling the defense as a coach? 227 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 8: I believe so? 228 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 10: They finished fifteenth in points allowed in twenty twenty four. 229 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 8: That was their best finish. 230 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 10: Otherwise, they were thirty first in twenty twenty three and 231 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 10: twenty ninth in twenty twenty five. The highest they finished 232 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 10: takeaways was nineteenth. Over those three seasons, they were below 233 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 10: the league average and pressure rate and sack rate in 234 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 10: three years. And then he has so two of his 235 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 10: mentors and predecessors are Matty Aberflus and Mike Zimmer, two 236 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 10: guys that have that have been here before. 237 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 2: And I know, I wish you left that out. 238 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 8: He wanted all the pros and all the we are 239 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 8: batches out on this. So there are sprinkles of. 240 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 7: So you say, is getting his big home is what 241 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 7: you're saying. 242 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 10: He was part of He worked under Matti Refluce in Indianapolis, and. 243 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 6: I didn't even talk about you know, would you say 244 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 6: he's also Zimmer? 245 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 8: Mike Zimmer as well. 246 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 2: I could live I could you can live with him? 247 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 8: Oh? 248 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 7: You know, man, it's just plea. 249 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 8: That was there's your pros and cons there, all right? 250 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 2: Give me Jim Leonard, all right, last. 251 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 8: One, Jim Leonard. 252 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 10: So the interesting thing about Leonard, and I was told 253 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 10: this just earlier today, the Cowboys, He's the only one 254 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 10: that hasn't come in for their for the second interview. 255 00:10:58,559 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 2: He didn't even even come in for the first one. 256 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 10: That was a virtual correct. It seems like they want 257 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 10: to do that with him. The tricky part is they 258 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 10: can do it up until Saturday, right Well, he's preparing 259 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 10: for an NFC championship game, so there's no way he's 260 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 10: going to come down here Dallas to have to go 261 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 10: up to him. 262 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 8: I don't know if they'll do that. I don't foresee 263 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 8: them doing that. 264 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 10: So they would have to wait until a either the 265 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 10: Broncos lose or if they win and go to the 266 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 10: super Bowl, until after the super Bowl. 267 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 6: So that's what they can't in that two week period 268 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 6: between the championship game and the super Bowl. 269 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 2: They can't be I believe. 270 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 8: I don't believe. 271 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 2: So wow, which is going to be. 272 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 10: Really interesting if that places a kind of time stamp 273 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 10: on this, Like Okay, you got a lot of risk 274 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 10: in that, right because he's he's highly heralded and other 275 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 10: people are looking at him for the defensive coordinator drop. 276 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 10: I know the Green Bay Packers are, they're looking for 277 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 10: a new defensive coordinator. As far as pros with him, 278 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 10: he's the literal dictionary definition of what Brian Schodheimer was 279 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 10: outlining in the NBC's and press conference and they're talking 280 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 10: about what are you looking for in a defensive coordinator? Teaching, 281 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 10: making complex things simple, developing young players, etc. 282 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 8: He's done that. 283 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 10: The Broncos jumped from nineteenth to seventh in past defense 284 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 10: this season. He's part of two top ten overall defenses. 285 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 10: He had success as a defensive coordiator at the collegiate 286 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 10: level back at Wisconsin. Those Wisconsin defenses under Jim Leonard 287 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 10: were really good. And then he's familiar with Brian Schotenheimer. 288 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 10: He played for him with the Jets when Schoenheimer was 289 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 10: the offensive coordinator. Cons The Broncos were twenty six in 290 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 10: takeaways eighteenth in interceptions this past year. Kind of interesting 291 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 10: considering how good that defense is. 292 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, he only has very interesting. 293 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 10: He only has collegiate defensive coordinator experience, no NFL experience, 294 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 10: and he's only coached in the NFL for two years. 295 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 10: Remember that he was with Wisconsin and then he was 296 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 10: the interim head coach there. But other than that, he's 297 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 10: only been in the NFL for a couple of years. 298 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 10: And then, of course they'll need to wait for an 299 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 10: in person interview with him until either one of those 300 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 10: scenarios that I outlined earlier happened, I would think you 301 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 10: would think again, this the NFL. You never know that 302 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 10: the Broncos probably lose the AFC title game considering out 303 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 10: their starting quarterback. 304 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 8: But crazier things have happened. 305 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 6: I've seen crazy l you know who knows, man, Yeah, right, exactly, 306 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 6: that's exactly right.

We're talking about 374 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 6: defensive coordinators. Cowboys are in the process of trying to 375 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 6: find their next defensive coordinator. There are four guys we've 376 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 6: identified that we think are, according to what we're seeing 377 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 6: and hearing, are the most likely finalist candidates for this job. 378 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 2: So what I want to do? 379 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 6: I know Tommy in the last segment he gave us 380 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 6: the pros and cons reach some stuff I knew, some 381 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 6: stuff I didn't know. I certainly changed my opinion on 382 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 6: a couple guys. But that all being said, I want 383 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 6: to go around the table once you guys rank these 384 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 6: for me. If you were to ranked them one to four, 385 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 6: how would you rank these defensive coordinators? 386 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 2: Ag Let's start with you. 387 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 11: Number one is the one we talked about all that 388 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 11: it seems like it might not happen based on the 389 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 11: scenarios say with Jim, mister Jim, he seems like the 390 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 11: most qualified one out of everybody on there, and I 391 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 11: think he's the said right now, other than the other 392 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 11: guy that I don't think we've I don't even the 393 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 11: other popular one that we haven't talked about on this 394 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 11: show has. 395 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 7: Not interviewed talking about coaching. 396 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 12: I don't know. 397 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 2: I don't know, oh is he is he a free agent. 398 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 6: He's a free he's not in the contract right contract. 399 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 2: If it's contract, then we can talk this year. 400 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 6: If it's contract, if its contract is that we can 401 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 6: talk about. 402 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,120 Speaker 2: I think he's interviewing for head coaching jobs. 403 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 6: That's why we haven't really talked about him, because the 404 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 6: Cowboys haven't interviewed him, and I've heard that he's been interviewed. 405 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 6: I think I saw that two different teams have interviewed him. 406 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 6: I know Steelers interviewed him for a head coaching job, 407 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,479 Speaker 6: So I think he's looking at head coaching positions. He's 408 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 6: not necessarily it would be a lateral move for him. 409 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 6: I don't know that he'd be looking to do a 410 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,959 Speaker 6: lateral moves going back to Minnesota if he's not going 411 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 6: to be a head coach right, but go ahead. 412 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 11: No, but he I know, he's like the top one 413 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 11: in popularity and the ones that fans continuously. 414 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 2: Talk about and what Minnesota do it? Todall? 415 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 6: I think we all were like, Wow, who's that guy? 416 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 12: But uh, Leonard, he's my top one. After that. 417 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 11: After him, I would say the one that kind of 418 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 11: intrigues me the most because I'll be honest, the next 419 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 11: three just don't do it for me. 420 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 12: They just they. 421 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 11: Everything that Tommy said doesn't get me excited. Even with 422 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 11: the pros, I'm just like, eh. But the other the 423 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 11: one that maybe I'm looking at is Parker, and I'm 424 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:46,159 Speaker 11: thinking of like, okay, like a whistle blower type of person, 425 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 11: like comes in, gives us the secrets. 426 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 12: Yeah, why not? 427 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 11: You know, That's the biggest pro I see in my 428 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 11: eyes with him. After that, the other two candidates they're 429 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 11: kind of they fall right at the bottom. I mean 430 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 11: the one related. 431 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 8: With Man, you are honest, aren't you? 432 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 11: Well, yeah, I'm not interested some of these Honestly, I 433 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 11: just feel like, why are we even interviewing them? But 434 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 11: that's part of the process. You do have to look 435 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 11: and interview the most people that you can, and you know, 436 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 11: see what all the options are there. But again, this 437 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 11: is coming from someone that even last year when oh 438 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 11: my god, why am I blanking out on his name 439 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 11: ever Flus? When Everflus was interviewed, I didn't feel any 440 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 11: type of way about it. I knew his history and 441 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 11: I was like, Okay, he seems like a decent candidate. 442 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 11: Bring him in, let's see what he can do. And 443 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 11: then we saw the end result of that. So I'm 444 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 11: not the best person to say, hey, let me give 445 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 11: you the best judgment at the moment. But so far, 446 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 11: based on the resume of these guys, no one really 447 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 11: catches my attention other than gym A right fotch. 448 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 9: Like I said last week, man, I love it when 449 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 9: I don't know these people. I love it when when 450 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 9: you don't have this history of your job not working. 451 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:13,199 Speaker 7: You know. 452 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 9: For example, I was I was reading the other day 453 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 9: Adam Gase is like being talked to right now, boy 454 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,360 Speaker 9: with his history. You know what I'm saying. We talked 455 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:23,920 Speaker 9: about Adam Gates right now, you know what I mean. 456 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 9: But Claytonnams, I know who the hell Clayton Adams was, 457 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 9: and look at what he comes in. I like the 458 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 9: idea of a young coach fresh ideas. But what I 459 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 9: like about this group of guys that they've brought in 460 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 9: is that they've worked under the superpower coaches. So you know, 461 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,880 Speaker 9: we can't get fans, yeah, but we got this guy. 462 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 9: We can't get you know, flora Is but we but 463 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 9: we got this guy. But the guys that are in 464 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 9: charge of like putting their whole thing together, and I 465 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 9: guess you just kind of break down who they are, 466 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 9: what they do best, and what they'll bring to you. 467 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 9: I value. I'll just say Gannon last first of all. 468 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 9: But I'm thinking about Christian Parker, right, and if one 469 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 9: of his is I'm a teacher or whatever, right, So cool, 470 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 9: you're a teacher and you can bring Fangio style here. 471 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 9: I think how the Cowboys are gonna be built is man, 472 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 9: we don't know if they're gonna go and get that 473 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,959 Speaker 9: one disgrunner pass rush that I'm thinking about. Maybe in 474 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 9: trade situations, but you're probably gonna have a bunch of 475 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 9: players and your superstar is gonna be upfront, but maybe 476 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 9: a secondary of just hard work guys, you know what 477 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 9: I mean, middle of the row, hard work guys. I 478 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 9: would want the coach that can improve the guys as 479 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 9: opposed to we think about Jones, who is I need 480 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 9: this specific type of guy to make my Vikings thing work. 481 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 7: You see what I'm saying. 482 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 9: I don't know if the Jones are gonna go and 483 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 9: get him exactly what he needs to make it work. 484 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,119 Speaker 9: So if I had the rank it, I would go 485 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 9: Parker first, because he seems to be the teacher. I 486 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 9: don't know a whole bunch about Leonard in that way, 487 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 9: but they preach that he's a teacher and high energy guy. 488 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 9: I'll go Leonard second. Jones. I would love to have 489 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 9: that fangio thing. I mean that Flores's thing to where 490 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 9: our safety is moving around. We confuse and folks, but 491 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,439 Speaker 9: I don't know we can turn that kind of defense 492 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 9: around in two or three years. I'll say Jones third, 493 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 9: and I'll go Ganning for simply by the way of 494 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 9: who he's, you know, who is associated with. 495 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 10: So I've come to really like Christian Parker as we've 496 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 10: done more and more research on this, I think, you know, 497 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 10: it's evident to me at least that it seems like 498 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 10: the Cowboys are looking for a secondary focus type of coach. 499 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 6: By the way, all of these except for gannon passing 500 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 6: game coordinator. 501 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 10: Right, right, So these guys have a strong history in 502 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 10: the secondary, and it seems, obviously, given how this past 503 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 10: year went, that makes sense. I think his development of 504 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 10: young players. Think about the Cowboys love Savonne Rebel, they 505 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 10: love their third round pick. 506 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 8: They think he's going to be a really good player. Yeah, 507 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 8: and I think he can't. 508 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 10: He has a really good chance to be with a 509 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 10: full off season and if he gets that brace off 510 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 10: of his knee. You also think about the fact they've 511 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 10: got two first round picks, and as we've been talking 512 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 10: on the Draft Show, there's plenty of corners out there 513 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 10: that could make sense for them in that first round 514 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 10: of twelve or twenty. So if they're gonna go corners, 515 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 10: you want a guy that can develop some of those 516 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 10: young players. That's certainly a big checkbox. I think he 517 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 10: checks that in a lot of ways for you. I 518 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 10: think Jim Leonard does a lot of the same things. 519 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:04,199 Speaker 8: You know. 520 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 10: I watched a coaching video of his at Wisconsin when 521 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 10: he was putting on a coaching clinic, and it's very 522 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 10: easy to see why players are able to understand what 523 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,199 Speaker 10: it is that he's teaching them based on how he 524 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 10: teaches coaches. I'm not a football player, but even I 525 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 10: was able to understand some of the concepts and things 526 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 10: that he was laying out in front of him. So 527 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 10: I think he's an effective communicator. He's going to bring 528 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 10: that high energy stuff that Brian Schoenheimer is looking for. 529 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 10: So that makes a lot of sense. So that would 530 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 10: be my one of my two. And then deroante Jones. 531 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 10: You know, I don't hate the fact that it's so 532 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,920 Speaker 10: veteran Laden. I don't because I think that he's got 533 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 10: smart players who know where they're supposed to be, and 534 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,479 Speaker 10: he instills that in them. They know where they're supposed 535 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 10: to be, they know what their job is. I don't 536 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 10: think Dallas has that on the roster right now. They're 537 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,719 Speaker 10: way too young at corner, and then they are two safeties. 538 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 10: You know, you just don't know what you're going to get. 539 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 10: And you put Donovan Wilson in so many bad situations 540 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 10: this year and he's in single high coverage. Mallie Cooker 541 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 10: is hurt half the year, so you don't I don't 542 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 10: think they have the pieces in place for that. Are 543 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 10: they going to be willing to spend in free agency 544 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 10: to fill that that's a big question. 545 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 8: And then Gannon would be last. I don't I don't. 546 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 10: Discount him for the defensive coordinator work that he did 547 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 10: in Philadelphia, but the work as a head coach is 548 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 10: a little bit scary because that Cardinals defense was never 549 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 10: really anything notable until they played the Cowboys. But yeah, 550 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,479 Speaker 10: that one, that one would worry me just a little bit. 551 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 8: I don't think it. 552 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 10: I'm not saying it can't work, but I think Watch 553 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 10: and I had the same We have the same rankings. 554 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 7: The same rankings Parker first, Jones. 555 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 2: And Gan Well, I will say this, did you go ahead, Well, 556 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 2: I'll say this. 557 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 6: I'll start at the bottom because I think we all 558 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 6: agree Gan is probably the one that we're least intrigued by. 559 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 6: Next would be Deronte Jones for me as well, because 560 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 6: mainly because I look at the numbers. You would just 561 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 6: telling me about that Minnesota defense and seems like the 562 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 6: secondary is the worst part of that defense. Like we 563 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,199 Speaker 6: really love what that defense was able to do, it 564 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 6: sounds like the secondary was the was the worst part 565 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 6: that defense. 566 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 2: So that doesn't really excite me. 567 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 6: And I don't know if I necessarily buy into the 568 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,199 Speaker 6: idea that just because he's there, he'll be able to 569 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 6: bring what Flora Is brings, right, I don't necessarily ascribe 570 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 6: to that. Then I get to those other two and 571 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 6: it's really more about what I've read about them as coaches. 572 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 6: One of the things I read about a Christian Parker 573 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 6: that really intrigued me is the way he conducts his meetings. Supposedly, 574 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 6: he conducts them in a way to where everyone in 575 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 6: the room is expected to be able to understand the why. 576 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 6: He doesn't just say, here's what you're going to do. 577 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 6: You know, it's not good enough to know what your 578 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 6: responsibility is. You have to understand the why, why are 579 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:38,400 Speaker 6: we doing it this way? 580 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 2: Why? Why is my role what it is. 581 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 6: In the context of the overall defense. And I think 582 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:49,880 Speaker 6: that makes for a smarter team, smarter players. And although 583 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 6: you know, I think sometimes people can say you can 584 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 6: get bogged down, but I think when you have the 585 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 6: ability to really think through the full scope of what 586 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 6: you're doing, I think it makes you a better player. 587 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 6: I think you can play faster. I think you can 588 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 6: adapt quicker because you understand. If I know how what 589 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 6: I'm doing relates to the linebacker, then you know whatever 590 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 6: the look is, you get you know, well, I may 591 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 6: have to adjust like this because my linebacker's doing this. 592 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 6: I have to do this because I know my past 593 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,479 Speaker 6: rush is doing this and I expect it to have 594 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,360 Speaker 6: these results. And so I love the fact that he 595 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 6: really leans heavily on feedback from his players and making 596 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 6: sure his players understand the why. So if I had 597 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 6: to choose between the two, I probably am still going 598 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 6: to give Leonard just a slight edge just because he 599 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 6: has experience as a defensive coordinator, even though it's just 600 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 6: in college, but he has actually called a defense, So 601 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 6: I'll give him a bit of an edge. But man, 602 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 6: I really really like Christian Parker. I like him a lot, 603 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 6: and I think he's going to be a guy we're 604 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 6: going to be hearing about for years to come when 605 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 6: it's talking you talk about coaches in the NFL. What 606 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 6: he does I think will be something that at some 607 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 6: point WI will get him to the point where he'll 608 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 6: probably be a head coach in this league. 609 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 7: Debate team dere boy. 610 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 6: I'm just saying, like he really intrigues. I don't know, 611 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 6: I can't remember where I read that. I would I 612 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 6: would give credit to it so you guys could read 613 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 6: it as well. But I just thought it was really 614 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 6: really fascinating how he approaches that, you know, and and 615 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 6: they mentioned that he kind of treats it as he 616 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 6: treated as he was being taught when he was getting 617 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 6: his criminal justice degree. 618 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 2: I think it was and that was something that. 619 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 6: He thought was good for him as far as how 620 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 6: it helped him understand the material he was he was learning. 621 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 2: So I just love that. 622 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,640 Speaker 6: I love when people take real life experiences and learning 623 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 6: experiences and translates. 624 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 2: In the football. What were you about to saying? Are 625 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 2: you about to say something to ask a question or 626 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 2: something I was gonna ask. 627 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 11: You guys a question? I don't know how crazy, Yeah, 628 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 11: all of y'all. I don't know how to really pose 629 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 11: the question. But basically in that end of the season 630 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 11: interview that they did, Jerry Jones talking about all it's 631 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 11: going to be a mutual conversation, mutual decision between him 632 00:27:55,320 --> 00:28:00,160 Speaker 11: and Brian Schattenheimer and making this hiring decision. My question 633 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 11: to you guys is based on the quote unquote lack 634 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 11: of intervenence or. 635 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 2: What's the word like intervention? 636 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 12: Intervention? 637 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,160 Speaker 11: Yes, based on the lack of intervention that we saw 638 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 11: last year in that season with what you were seeing 639 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 11: happening on the defensive side. 640 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 12: Of the ball. How qualified or how. 641 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 11: Much value do you give into, let's say, Brian Schottenheimer's 642 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 11: decision or evaluation on these. 643 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 2: Hiring Can I qualify something here? 644 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 6: I don't want to assume that it was a lack 645 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 6: of intervention that was the reason. 646 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 2: For the result. 647 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 6: I think it is a plausible thought that the head 648 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 6: coach was saying, I really want to see X Y Z, 649 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 6: and the defensive coordinator said, yeah, I ain't doing that. 650 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 12: Well, I'm just going based on so, and we don't 651 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 12: know what happens. 652 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 2: Behare we don't We don't think. 653 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 12: I think most in. 654 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 11: This question, this question based on one of the results, 655 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 11: the end result, and two on what was shown to 656 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 11: the media. That's all to the public eye. I'm not yeah, 657 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 11: a lot of things could have happened, but I'm just 658 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 11: saying based on what we've heard them talking the media 659 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 11: and all that. Again, a lot of things we don't actually. 660 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 6: Know, right, but based on what we heard them saying 661 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 6: the media is why I get that impression. Because the 662 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 6: fact that the head coach and the owner were like, yeah, 663 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 6: we we thought our linebacker was supposed to be playing 664 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 6: like that was that was the plan, was that. 665 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 2: He was going to play. We have no idea why 666 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 2: he didn't play. 667 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 6: That says to me that somebody on the defensive side 668 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 6: of the ball made the decision that they weren't going 669 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 6: to expert that you can hold the power, but what's 670 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 6: the at the end of the day, how much power 671 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 6: do you have when if if, if the guy doesn't 672 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 6: do it, what's going to happen. 673 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 11: If you're paying me and I'm not doing what you're 674 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 11: telling me to do, I would assume that paycheck would 675 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 11: stop coming very quickly. Yes, it happened at the end 676 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 11: of the season, right, But when you're talking about urgency, 677 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 11: sense of urgency and the way that Dave Prescott is 678 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 11: playing in the season, and you're talking about not wasting 679 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 11: any more time, there's no room for Hey, I told 680 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 11: you or I thought we were doing this, you didn't 681 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 11: do it, and then it didn't happen and you're still 682 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 11: here and then oh now you're in the press box 683 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 11: calling like no, no. 684 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 6: But everything she said, But they were but at that point, 685 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 6: but at that point they were out of it, Like 686 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 6: did you want them just the ceremonial leagues that's great. 687 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 6: I don't think that that's necessarily how they look at it. 688 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 9: I think that's a Barr's point though, And please, if 689 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 9: from wrong, tarry from wrong. But like, if Fluis is 690 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 9: gonna be like and I hate we still Tucker, it'll 691 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 9: working on. But if flu Is gonna be rogue, I'm 692 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 9: gonna do what I want to do. God, the intervention 693 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 9: would be either Shoddy going, well, I find go and 694 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 9: I'll let Aaron call the last four games or something, 695 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 9: or Jerry going, okay, well here's your buyout. High let 696 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 9: you and I'll see if anybody on the staff could 697 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 9: be my next DC probably doing these interviews, like, where's 698 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 9: the intervention coming from? If even if Flues went road, 699 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 9: I think there's what. 700 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 6: It is fair to say the Cowboys should have done this. 701 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 6: They should have got rid of him if he was 702 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 6: doing that. Sure, that doesn't mean that it's not true 703 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 6: that maybe he was doing that. That's all I'm saying 704 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 6: is I don't think we can make an assumption that 705 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 6: he was he was being he was, that the head 706 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 6: coach was not saying I need to see these things, 707 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 6: or that the owner was not saying I need to 708 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 6: see these things. I just think that's an assumption I'm 709 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 6: not willing to make. I look at it and I say, 710 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 6: there is a real possibility here, as what I saw 711 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 6: with that linebacker, there's a real possibility that they had 712 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 6: They went into meetings and they came out of those 713 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 6: meetings with an expectation, and then it didn't happen on Sundays. 714 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 11: Man, I just know what the result was. I don't 715 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 11: know what happened behind the doors. But my whole initial 716 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 11: question was more about how much are we trusting the 717 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 11: evaluation for the hiring of this position, because at the 718 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 11: end of the day, we've gone through quite a few 719 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 11: defensive coordinators and it hasn't worked out just yet. 720 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 6: So but those were but those hires were more directed 721 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 6: at like Jerry. Wasn't Jerry more involved with that thing? 722 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 12: Yeah? 723 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 11: But I'm talking about after this first year with Schottenheimer, 724 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 11: how much are you valuing, valuing or trusting his I 725 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 11: don't know the not decision, but evaluation for this position. 726 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 9: Because then now you can go, well, if my new 727 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 9: coach goes rogue, do I have somebody that can check him? 728 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 9: So now your criticism of Schetdenheimer is are you even 729 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 9: checking guys on your staff or of Jerry, Hey, are 730 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 9: you even like, do you even have it? 731 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 2: Ain't you to go and. 732 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 9: Fire somebody that that's going rogue or maybe they're not 733 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 9: doing their their job properly or whatever. Man players, But 734 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 9: you know, coaches, I mean. 735 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 2: What I will say. 736 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,719 Speaker 6: What I will say is I look at this and 737 00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 6: I say, it's one thing to have a guy who 738 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 6: has who is a former NFL head coach, who is 739 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,719 Speaker 6: an older, more senior type coach, where he might feel like, 740 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 6: what's the worst you're gonna do to me? 741 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 11: Now? 742 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, as opposed to you bring in your own guy 743 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 6: who is beholden to you, these more senior guys, you know. 744 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 6: But but you bring in somebody that's more beholden to you. Now, 745 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 6: now they got a little more buy in to I 746 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 6: want to see this head coach too. Well, I'm gonna 747 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 6: I'm gonna listen to what this head coach is asking 748 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 6: me to do, because at the end of the day, 749 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 6: we're all adults. Like Amber, you work on my staff. 750 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 6: But if you went rogue, like ultimately I can't do 751 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 6: anything until after the fact, I can't do anything before it. 752 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 6: You would have to go rogue for me to then 753 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 6: respond to it, right, So grown people, grown people, you 754 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 6: can do what you want to do. 755 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 9: I think the problem is is if Ambar has four 756 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 9: more documentaries left and she go rode for one of them, 757 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 9: you let her do the other three, like stop like 758 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 9: fire her. 759 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 6: No, But that's actually a great point. That's actually great 760 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 6: point because you look at it and what you do 761 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 6: is you keep trying to give her the benefit of doubt. 762 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 6: My shoes, because I'd be like, man, she's highly decorated. 763 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 6: She wins a lot of awards. This time she went rogue, 764 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 6: but maybe she won't this next time. So let me 765 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,879 Speaker 6: give another shot. Okay, Imber this time, don't go roll. 766 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 6: Just just do what you've been. 767 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 7: The Flues ain't had no enemy, That's what I'm saying. 768 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 2: Well, yes, yes he has. He was not no, not with. 769 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 7: Us, not but his his first twelve. 770 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: But he was. 771 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 6: But he was an NFL head coach that got that 772 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 6: job because of how well he did as a defensive coordinator. 773 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 2: So he had some skins on the wall. Now it's 774 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,439 Speaker 2: not the ultimate, but he had some skins on the wall. 775 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 2: And I think there probably was some earlier. 776 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 6: Parts of the season where they were like, Okay, we're 777 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 6: gonna we're gonna trust you, dude. 778 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 2: Now come on now, we're gonna trust you. 779 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,839 Speaker 9: And you know what, he's made great documentaries before, but 780 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 9: it ain't like he went but it ain't like he 781 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 9: went from great to good. He went from great to 782 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 9: the worst documentaries we've seen. 783 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 2: This is all fair, This is all fair. And by 784 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 2: the way, that's why he's no longer here. 785 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:56,399 Speaker 7: That's why. That's why he's no longer here. That's why 786 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 7: I wouldn't let him do them last right. 787 00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 6: But I think I think at that point, I think 788 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,919 Speaker 6: a lot of it was just kind of like water 789 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 6: under the bridge. We know we're making a move at 790 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,880 Speaker 6: the end of the season. We're already out of it, 791 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:07,479 Speaker 6: so it really doesn't matter at this point. 792 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,959 Speaker 2: Put him up in the booth, yea, get up the boot. 793 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 11: Yeah we should go to break to break call me 794 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 11: with me or Derek pick one.

That's a 888 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 6: brand new cub bro. 889 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 7: I'm gonna just drink my days, y'all blue here, I guess. 890 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 12: Just hold your cup pretending. 891 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, and then that got a different bottle. 892 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 12: Yeah, all right. First question? 893 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:56,240 Speaker 11: Would the Cowboys Super Bowl expectations be the same if 894 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 11: they were in the a f C instead of the 895 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 11: nf See wait again, Would the Cowboys Super Bowl expectations 896 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 11: be the same if they were in the AFC rather 897 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 11: than the NFC? Would they be looked at differently if 898 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 11: they were in the other conference or would they still 899 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 11: be what they are? 900 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:17,880 Speaker 7: I don't think so. 901 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 9: I think people have just perceived the Cowboys as the Cowboys. 902 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 9: If where you're going is that some other teams don't 903 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 9: get similar criticism for being just as bad as the 904 00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 9: Cowboys have been. That you, right, But I just think 905 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 9: that's just a cowboy thing. That's just a good way. 906 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:33,399 Speaker 6: The only difference I would see is that you could 907 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 6: say that by divisions, Like if they were in the 908 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 6: NFC South, yeah, they'd have been on the cusp of 909 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,439 Speaker 6: the playoffs, like they would have been playing that last 910 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 6: week to get in the playoffs, right, But they're in 911 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 6: the NFC East and they have to deal with Philadelphia, 912 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,359 Speaker 6: who tends to be, you know, up there with one 913 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 6: of the top teams in the league. 914 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 2: So yeah, I think division matters. 915 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 6: If they were the NFC West, they'd have been out 916 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 6: of it and maybe week five. I don't know, Like 917 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:56,920 Speaker 6: it just depends on division that you're in more I 918 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 6: think than anything else in the national football game. 919 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 12: It goes both ways. If there were some other divisions 920 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:02,720 Speaker 12: that will never be part. 921 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 2: Of the commerce site, that's my point. 922 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 6: NFC West, they they would not have even been in 923 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 6: consideration this year because those teams all played really well. 924 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 10: And you could say the same thing for some of 925 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 10: the divisions in the AFC too. I mean AFC East 926 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 10: Patriots and the Bills, the South with the Jaguars and 927 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 10: the Texans, the West with the Broncos and the Chargers, 928 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:20,760 Speaker 10: and you're in and you're out. Really the only conference 929 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 10: or the only division that they could maybe have a 930 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,360 Speaker 10: year in year out shot in is the AFC North 931 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 10: because Pittsburgh and Baltimore kind of usually stay on that 932 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 10: same level. Pittsburgh usually ends up like nine and eight 933 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 10: or something. Sorry my commlin, but that's just kind. 934 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 8: Of typically where they end ups. Would be right there 935 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:40,240 Speaker 8: with yeah, and that would be close enough. 936 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 12: Yeah. 937 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:47,240 Speaker 11: Who is someone a player, former player, coach that fans 938 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 11: love but they wouldn't if they actually knew how they. 939 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 12: Were behind the camera in their. 940 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 8: Tastes for STI yeah, I think I will. 941 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:02,760 Speaker 11: Thought you could applied maybe like Cowboys podcast staff, since 942 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 11: you haven't, like you've run into a few people already, 943 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 11: But I don't think you've had any of those type 944 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 11: of people. 945 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 9: But I love everybody that does YouTube on a content 946 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 9: on YouTube.

It's genuinely that he's just a 977 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 6: good person, and I respect that because that ain't the 978 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:45,720 Speaker 6: case with a lot of people. 979 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 2: It's not the case. 980 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,480 Speaker 6: But I'll tell you that that man is a He 981 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:50,719 Speaker 6: is a stellar human being. 982 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 8: Bro completely agree. 983 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 7: I never met. 984 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 6: I'm sure, yeah, you get if you get medium, you'll 985 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 6: current player or former or. 986 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 12: At least just say the category of which one it was. 987 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 8: I'd say both current and former. 988 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:13,400 Speaker 10: I would say there's there's some for both, okay, but 989 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,279 Speaker 10: I mean you're gonna get that anywhere in the league. 990 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:17,880 Speaker 6: By the way, that's life too, that there are a 991 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 6: lot of people in life that you run across. They 992 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:25,319 Speaker 6: have their their their public relations personal personality, and they 993 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 6: got there behind the scenes personality. 994 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 2: You know, that's how most people are. You know, that's fair. 995 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 11: Most people like that last question, which, uh, let's imagine 996 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 11: we were in the playoffs. 997 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 8: I can't. 998 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 12: That's hard to imagine. 999 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 7: It was just two ago. 1000 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 2: Stop stop it which and. 1001 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 11: We're taking into consideration like not thinking about free agency 1002 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,560 Speaker 11: or anything. We still have the same roster. Okay, which 1003 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 11: current Cowboys starter would be the biggest liability in the playoffs? 1004 00:44:58,200 --> 00:44:59,320 Speaker 8: Are you trying to get us fired? 1005 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,319 Speaker 6: Or Like the funny part is we got a lot 1006 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 6: of people we could throw in that. Like, it's not 1007 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 6: like you could just say, oh yeah, it's definitely. 1008 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:09,760 Speaker 8: Oh yeah, yeah, that's. 1009 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 7: That's he'll work. 1010 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 8: I don't think a free agent, but I would be 1011 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 8: shocked if he works here next year. 1012 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 6: Well, his his rabbi has left the building, so I 1013 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 6: don't think he's got anybody that's that's calling for him. 1014 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 10: And I was talking with somebody about him earlier today actually, 1015 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 10: and the most jarring thing about the way that he played. 1016 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 10: And I'm not trying to talk on the guy, I 1017 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 10: promise I'm sure he's a good dude, but he's probably not. 1018 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 12: But the fact that players will be tweeting. 1019 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:42,919 Speaker 2: Like hey man, I heard what you said. 1020 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 10: People, Yeah, that's happened in the past for no reasons, 1021 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:54,120 Speaker 10: not here anymore. But with linebackers, like sometimes offensive lineman 1022 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 10: will climb up and they get you right, it just happens. 1023 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 8: They're bigger. 1024 00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 10: But with him, it was like so many times you 1025 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 10: would see it and he'd just settle into the block, 1026 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 10: as opposed to you know, you can try to let 1027 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 10: get off of it right and try to step up 1028 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 10: and make a play. He would just let himself get 1029 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 10: carried out of the play further and further and further, and. 1030 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 8: You just can't do that. 1031 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 6: I was watching this linebacker last week. I can't remember 1032 00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:17,839 Speaker 6: which linebacker was by one of the commentations, I think 1033 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 6: it was Troy, and he said because on the play, 1034 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 6: the linebacker diagnosed the play and before the offensive lineman 1035 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 6: could get to him, he got around him and he 1036 00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:28,920 Speaker 6: was up to make the play. And Troy made the 1037 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:33,239 Speaker 6: point for a linebacker, you're giving up size if you're 1038 00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:37,239 Speaker 6: too slow with understanding what's about to happen. Then once 1039 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 6: that offensive lineman gets on you, it's not even fair 1040 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 6: to expect they're going to always be able to get 1041 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:43,520 Speaker 6: off that block because they're giving up so much size. 1042 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,879 Speaker 6: That's why it's so critical that linebackers understand the game 1043 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 6: in a way to where they can predict what's going 1044 00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:53,000 Speaker 6: to happen and they're a beat faster than the offensive 1045 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:54,919 Speaker 6: lineman can be to get to them. And that's where 1046 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 6: I think Kenneth Murray had the biggest problem. He just 1047 00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 6: wasn't quick to identify what was happening and be able 1048 00:46:59,960 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 6: to react to it quick enough. And so once that 1049 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 6: guy got on him, it's a game over. 1050 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 12: Yeah, well it's game over for this show because we're 1051 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 12: done for the days. 1052 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,360 Speaker 11: But well, next time, I won't let you guys be 1053 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,359 Speaker 11: able to copy people's answers, so that way we get 1054 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 11: more like. 1055 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:17,560 Speaker 6: Well, we would have more time if you wouldn't ask 1056 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:19,760 Speaker 6: that question unless you gotta be real. 1057 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 12: And crazy defending everything, defend. 1058 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 2: You know, you know, don't look at it. 1059 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:31,600 Speaker 12: People confuse. 1060 00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 11: Mean being honest with being mean, But it's either do 1061 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 11: you want me to lie to your be honest? 1062 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 2: All right, that's rap. 1063 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 6: We'll see you guys next week, next Wednesday.
