I mean, 29 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: from a fan standpoint, I get it because it's like, oh, man, 30 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: I've been waiting eight days for this, right right facts. 31 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: I agree that said, hoping that they give us a 32 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: reason to wait, And we had open locker room yesterday, 33 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: had a chance to talk to some of the guys, 34 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: and it starts to feel a lot more like they 35 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 1: hit the reset button after last week, and they're they're 36 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,679 Speaker 1: kind of they're in a different mindset, at least from 37 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: what I was taking from the conversations I had. Patrick. 38 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: I'm interested to see what you think. But in the 39 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 1: conversations I had, it's not what what we did wrong 40 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: against Washington, it's what can we do right this week 41 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: to put us in the right position to beat Tampa Bay. 42 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: I agree. And in conversations with Zeke and Micah and 43 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: you know jay Ron Curse, there's a coming thread, a 44 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,679 Speaker 1: coming theme in the locker room, which is and Zeke 45 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: said it perfectly. He said, it doesn't matter what happened 46 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: to the regular season. Nobody cares anymore what happened in 47 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: the regular season. It's about right now, right here. You 48 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: gotta get it done it And Micah said, you know, 49 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: the regular and this is a quote, the regular season 50 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: is cool. You guys get all hyped up, but this 51 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: is where legends are made. So that's that's where the 52 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: locker room is right now. I like it. You see 53 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: what did you hear what their locker room was saying? 54 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,959 Speaker 1: What did their locker room say? Mike Evans called this 55 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: defense simple? Ooh m. He said, it doesn't matter. He 56 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 1: went for as long as we're healthy, it doesn't matter 57 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: what dbs are out there. M I like it. Would 58 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: you call this defense simple or is that just the 59 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: jab But the fact that it's not simple, I'm not 60 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: sure if he was speaking to the simplicity of the scheme, 61 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: if he was talking about the person. Now, okay, let's 62 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: talk about He talked about how their missing how Dallas 63 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: is missing two dbs, and you know number twenty six 64 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: is making a couple of plays. But that's about it. 65 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: A couple That's what he said. He said, he said, 66 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: trayvonn he said, he said, Trayvon's all right. I mean, 67 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: you know the first game, I mean he did. Okay, 68 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: it gives me m M. You haven't if you haven't 69 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: heard his interview, gold watch his interview. It will light 70 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: you up. You know what that ties into was respectful Evans. 71 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: You can tell he was hurting. He's Evans. He's taking 72 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 1: Treyvon Diggs personally. Listen Evans, Evans and Brady they were 73 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: on the sideline from their Sideline Sounds video last week, 74 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: and they were on the sideline at the last game 75 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: in week eighteen talking about Brady's undefeated record against the Cowboys. 76 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: They're kind of joking about it. They were. They were 77 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: asking Brady. They were like, what's what's your record against 78 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: the Cowboys? And he laughed and he was like six 79 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 1: and oh. I think he was like we were just 80 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: talking about this. Wow, aren't you playing the game? You 81 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: were just talking about Okay, So add that to what 82 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: Mike Evans is saying. And the Cowboys are not lacking 83 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: for bulletin board material. They shouldn't be lacking for motivation period. 84 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: But why not throw these extra logs on the fire? 85 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,559 Speaker 1: Can't wait? And what's crazy is Mike Evans is saying 86 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: what he's saying. But when I asked Trayvon Diggs specifically 87 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: about covering Mike Evans, Diggs had nothing but respect and 88 00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: positive statements and praise for Mike Evans. U. So it'll 89 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 1: be interesting to see, you know, And I just want 90 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: to know. I know from a Brady standpoint where all 91 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: this cockiness comes from. I know from a Brady stamp 92 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,039 Speaker 1: see but but TB twelve typically doesn't speak on it. 93 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: But and that's why I was vary. That's why that 94 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: he was one of the main ones on the sideline saying, hey, 95 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 1: we were just talking about this. How high chuckle chuckle um. 96 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: But that said, regardless of everybody can agree, TB twelve 97 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: has earned the right to be cocky. Okay, Mike Evans 98 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: even to a degree, you know, as many thousand years, 99 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: thousand yards receiving seasons as he's had. Okay, fine, fair, 100 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: but this season as a team. Where's the cockiness coming 101 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: from in Tampa Bay? That that's where I struggled to 102 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: try to figure it out, that where's the cocky? Don't like? Oh, 103 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: you know what, I love it. You know why I 104 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: love it? You know why I love it because people 105 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: who are that cocky let their guard down. Okay, And 106 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: when you let your guard down, tapped there you get 107 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: your nose tap, you get you get your gate rushed. Yeah, 108 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, I'm in the King's court. 109 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: Could you be saying the same thing about what some 110 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: of the stuff is being said this week? I meany 111 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 1: Mica Partsons came out and said, F that list, And 112 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,119 Speaker 1: there's stuff out there too, and siven that's not cocking, 113 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 1: that's not in reference to the other team. Yeah, that's 114 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: just wanted to make sure that's just been angry. He said, 115 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: F that list. I'm in playoff mode. He didn't say, 116 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: F that list, I'm about to go killing flo. Right. 117 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: So if you look at what they're saying in the 118 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:31,359 Speaker 1: locker room here, and and I believe it was was 119 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: it Mica or Zeke one or the other. I'd have 120 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: to check my notes, but one or the other yesterday 121 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: said that what happened in Week eighteen was humbling. It 122 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: was so brave, and that changed the energy in the 123 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: locker room this week as far as what needs to 124 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: happen and what cannot happen. So those are the types 125 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,479 Speaker 1: of things coming out of the Cowboys locker room. That's 126 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 1: the antithesis of what's coming out of the Bucks locker room. 127 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: They're it sounds like they're over there in Tampa feeling 128 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: like they're onto the divisional round before kickoff has even 129 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 1: started for the wild card round. That keep it, yeah, 130 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 1: keep that energy, yeah, yeah, keep it. By the way, 131 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: Trayvon Diggs against Mike Evans in week one, he allowed 132 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: three receptions on six targets for thirty three yards. He 133 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: did have to touchdown, but it was the fade route 134 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: in the back of the end zone that just took 135 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: a great Haven't seen his response to it, Like you 136 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: have to watch it, Like he feels some type of 137 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: way about it. He's speaking like yeah, he's all right, 138 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: but in his head he's like, oh, I'm about yeah, 139 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: it's going down like and then that's what that's the 140 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: energy do you feel for my is like he's taking 141 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: a difference and approach is funny because Diggs is like, yeah, 142 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: you know, have a lot of respect for Evans, and 143 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: because he Diggs has won that battle twice in a row, right, 144 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: And so now Diggs goes in smiling, smiless because he's like, 145 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: that's confident, Yeah, Evans. Evans feels some type of way 146 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: about the effectiveness that Diggs had on No true competitor 147 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: likes to feel like somebody has that has that hedge 148 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: on you. So when Evans is speaking about it, he's like, yeah, yeah, 149 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you know he did. I mean, he was 150 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: a I you know what I'm saying. I mean, you know, 151 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: he didn't want to give him full credit three for six. 152 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: By the way, last year it was one reception on 153 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:06,559 Speaker 1: five targets and he had an interception. I mean, Diggs 154 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: is locked down Evans twice, right, So to that point, 155 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: I believe hearing him speaking, I feel as if Mike 156 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: Emma's most likely has had a conversation with TV twelve 157 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: saying I'll refuse to go out this game with those 158 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: say with that same stat line. Yeah, And what I 159 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: mean by that is, I think they're gonna try to 160 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: come at Digs, and I hope they do. And I 161 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: was just about to say that. A couple of reasons why, 162 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: I really hope that comes to fruition number one. And 163 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: most importantly, if you're targeting Digs of that frequency, hawk 164 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: of that nature, it's he's going to get at least 165 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: one interception. But also as equally as important, if not 166 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: more so, if you're targeting Diggs, guess who you're not 167 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: targeting the cornerback on the opposite side of the field, 168 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: whomever that might be Nashan Right, Xavier Roads, whatever the 169 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: case may be. So now you would worry less about 170 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: Brady testing that CB two spot because he's so busy 171 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: testing CB one, and testing CB one will get you 172 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 1: one of two interceptions. So it by all means yap 173 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: it up, mister Evans. Yeah, do it outside of the 174 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: top all, outside of n Sean Right and and some 175 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: of the other guys on the back half. I'll leave 176 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: Bland and Digs out of this conversation. Who needs to 177 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 1: step up and have the best game safety wise or 178 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: or secondary wise, sorry I meant secondary. It's got to 179 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: be Nation right. Yeah, I don't think you'd be fair 180 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: to say have your Roads he just got here. I mean, 181 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: you hope and you would like for him to reach 182 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: tap into that former All Pro and former three time 183 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl status that he has and has demonstrated over 184 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: the course of his NFL career, But which one has 185 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: been in the program longer. It's Nashan, right, So I'm 186 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: right there with Zaia. Okay, any news and notes coming 187 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: out of yesterday with some positive, positive news and notes, 188 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: positive love, especially going into a win or go home situation. 189 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 1: I love that Cowboys injury report is slimmer than those 190 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: cigarettes from Virginia. Tyler Biadish was back on the practice 191 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: field effective on Wednesday, but first injury report came out 192 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: on Thursday, which was effectively Wednesday as far as the 193 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: scheduling goes practice wise. But he was a full participant, yes, 194 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: so there's the the evidence to what he was saying 195 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 1: the day before. As far as being a full goal, 196 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: he is in fact the full goal late in Vanderesh, Oh, No, 197 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: you can't just blow by that like that. No, we're 198 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: not just blowing by it. But we got something equally 199 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:35,719 Speaker 1: important late in Vanderesh. Full participant. Okay, there's two for two. 200 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: That's two for two. So let's let's take a moment 201 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: to go ahead and basking and both of those Syler 202 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: Biadas being here is is of most upmost important. Yeah, 203 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: we ranked it yesterday. It's upmost important because you give 204 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 1: this office a line back its leader. I don't know 205 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: when I say leader, I'm talking about the shot caller. 206 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: The way the way I put it, we asked that 207 00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 1: in the mail bag. We entered the mail bag this 208 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: week about it, and the way I put it was 209 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: he may not be the anchor of that offensive line, 210 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: but he certainly is the glue. Absolutely, that's exactly what 211 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: Tyler is. He's not the anchor. Zack Martin is the 212 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: an absolutely, he always has. Absolutely, but Tyler Beatis is 213 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: the thing that keeps that. He's the chain that keeps 214 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 1: it tied to the boat. Yeah, see me and glue. 215 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: We ain't talking about no Elmers. Okay, I'm sorry, the 216 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: animal sponsor. But either way they need to be all right. 217 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 1: He is so important and I don't know if everyone 218 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: out there understands the importance of his role. Having the 219 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: center playing in the game, in the most important game 220 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: of the year, settles. Settles sets your foundation, because you've 221 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: had a foundation that's a little shaky, right, you know, 222 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: It's like it's like it's like my house, like I 223 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: live on one side of the street. Nobody on my 224 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 1: side of the street house foundation problems. But across the 225 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: street is kind of like a little elevated heel, like 226 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: a little little fake heel. And I'm not telling about 227 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: where I live, but everybody across the street, everybody across 228 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: the street has foundation problems, and they have to put 229 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: pillars in and they have to find out ways to 230 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: just settle the storm and make things just just just work. 231 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 1: That is what's been happening over the past a little 232 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: bit without Tyler Biada is really being in there right. 233 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: So now that he's back, Ah, they move back to 234 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: the good side of the street. Okay, they're on the 235 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: good side of the street. Now, Now you can put 236 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: guys where they're supposed to be. Now you don't have 237 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: to ask guys to play out a position. Now you 238 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: can put your guy mcgovernent back where he goes. You 239 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: can bump your boy Tyler's mill back outside, and you 240 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: can tell Peters, hey, we appreciate you, player, but go 241 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: rest those knees, okay, Patrick style Okay, And then you 242 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: said and you're able to go out there and do 243 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: what you need to do in the running game, because 244 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: you have to have a running game against this three 245 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: four aka five two front. You gotta have it, and 246 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: you need that dude calling the shots and being able 247 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: to to to decipher what is being presented to them, 248 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: call out the mic, be able to tell everybody exactly 249 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: what the call is, having a cadence, right, that dak 250 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,439 Speaker 1: having a cadence in order in terms of what those 251 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: guys are doing our front, because having different centers, right, 252 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: we're talking about tens of seconds, those things matter, right, 253 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: talking about penalties, fall stars, presnap penalties, all those type 254 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: of things matter when you change up, change up the center. 255 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: So now things go back to order. Okay, where we 256 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: have We're back in We're back in symmetry. Right, it's 257 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: no different. We threw somebody else in here and Kyle 258 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: wasn't here one day, Like it's it's gonna be different. 259 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 1: It's gonna be different, right, It's gonna get the job done. 260 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 1: Might get the job done, but it's not the same, right, Okay, 261 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: there might be a couple of hiccups. They want to 262 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: be the same, Okay, So in the chemistry is different. 263 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,839 Speaker 1: So right, So I'm happy. I'm happy. Van dursh is 264 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: back to Okay, okay, I'm eating the thrill. They're both back, 265 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,079 Speaker 1: no doubt. Equate that to the defensive side of the 266 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: football too. How does Layton vander Esh help call out 267 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: things and solidify that front because he may not be 268 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: the anchor of his own defensive front, but he might 269 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: be the glue of that side as well. Confidence the 270 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 1: excellent point. It's all about the confidence of vander Is 271 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: being in there calling the shots. He's hearing to play 272 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: from the coach, and he's being able to communicate that 273 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: out there, been there since twenty eighteen. Dude, you look 274 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: at when you look in the eyes of somebody who's 275 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: calling those plays out right, they know that you are 276 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: the captain on that side of the ball. You're the 277 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: man on that field. Okay, when that man is not present, 278 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: I'm hearing you, right, I don't know if I I 279 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: don't know if I believe you. Right, I hear I 280 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: hear the call, But I don't have the boat of 281 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: confidence I had when Vanderes is in there right when 282 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: he tells me, slaps me on the button, says, hey, 283 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: shift over the one one gap right, okay, Well, coach 284 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: said on paper to ship get over one gap. I'm 285 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: telling you, because what I'm seeing you're not seeing. Get 286 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: where you need to go. It's gonna give us the advantage. 287 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: Those are the advantages that having somebody in there, like 288 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: a Vanders at the middle linebacker position, is going to 289 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: give this defense. When he's able to see things. I 290 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: would imagine he probably watches more film than everybody. I 291 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: hope he watches more film than everybody. Sean Lee, absolutely right, 292 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: Sean nobody watched more filman Sean Lee. So those guys 293 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: are able to depict things that are that might be 294 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: little hints, little tails, right that Tom Brady or I'm 295 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: say not Nece necessarily Tom Brady, but the offensive line 296 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: I've seen it on film. Offensive line gives out right 297 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: and when those little tails are there and maybe nobody 298 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: else sees it, but Vanderes does, he could put your 299 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: team in position to make the play. Ye when you're 300 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: talking about Beaddish and Vanderes, you're talk about the two 301 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: non quarterback quarterbacks of their respective position. So Tyler Biades 302 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: is in fact the quarterback of the offensive line, while 303 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: Zak is the anchor. It's Tyler Biada's point now pre 304 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: snap protections and things like that. On the opposite side 305 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: of the ball, Layton vander esh he's your quarterback of 306 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: the defense. He might not be, I mean, he's not 307 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons as far as the leader of the defense 308 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: or Marcus Lawrence, but he is in fact the quarterback 309 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: that has to call out pre snap motions and reads 310 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: and protections and things like that. So and I love 311 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: what Isaiah said in the aspect of there's a difference 312 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: when you're starting Mike is in there and he's your 313 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: green dot because McCarthy said it describing something different, but 314 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: it applies here as well. When McCarthy said, sometimes you're 315 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: telling somebody something and they're looking at you and they're 316 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: hearing you, but they're not really hearing you until like 317 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: the other parent comes in and says it one time, 318 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, it's like, oh, I get it, 319 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: and and you're looking at him like, come on, I 320 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: didn't just tell you that one hundred times. That It's 321 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: a similar situation when when lve is telling you about 322 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 1: pre snap mobile reads and protections and says it taps 323 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: you and say shift left, there's no second thought, there's 324 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: no oh well, coach. No, it's shift left right. So 325 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: that's the two fantastic readditions for the Cowboys and time. 326 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: It couldn't be perfect. And to that point, as far 327 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: as key players returning, Jonathan Hankins remained right now, he's 328 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: not on the injury report, but he's not on the 329 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: injury report because he remains technically on IR. So the 330 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: Cowboys would have to add him to the fifty three 331 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: man roster at some point before the game on Monday, 332 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: but they have time to do so. He continues to 333 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: contend he feels great. He told me on yesterday when 334 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: I asked him about his odds of taking the field 335 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: on Monday, he said, the time is now end. Quote, 336 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: there is there an extra spot for Hankins right now 337 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: to come off of R Yes, yes there is because 338 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: they've only got fifty two on the right right and 339 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: and Shepley was waived, so they have they have space there. 340 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: Got you now one compliment that I got yesterday to 341 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: Layton vander esh and just kind of going after that conversation, 342 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 1: I was sitting down, I sat down with Jake Ferguson. 343 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: I was one on one with Jake yesterday and I 344 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: asked him her delicious. I asked him who is he 345 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: really drawn from? Who is he picked up pieces of 346 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: how to prepare for a playoff game from? And being 347 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: a tight end? I expected him to say Dalton Schultz, 348 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: and he did. He said Dalton Schultz right off the bat. 349 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: The second name out of his mouth wasn't one that 350 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: I anticipated. It was late in Vanderesh. He said, I've 351 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: been watching Laton Vanderesh from the moment I got here. 352 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: The way that he carries himself, the way that he practices, 353 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 1: the way that he plays. It all lines up together, 354 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: all though the preparation that he does in the film room, 355 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: all of the stuff that he does on the practice field, 356 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: and then of course what he has done this year 357 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: playing exceptionally wellful or exceptionally good football. It translates to guys, 358 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: even on the opposite side of the ball, even on 359 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 1: guys that are playing a completely different position. Why is that? 360 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: Because infections When you see people doing things the right way, 361 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: and you see it the the what's the word I'm 362 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,719 Speaker 1: looking for? I can't think. How are you saying LV 363 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 1: is the right kind of guy? He is, He's proved it. 364 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 1: I just said that. The Garrett now he is. I mean, 365 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: so the Garrett fans out there see the fruition of 366 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: somebody's preparations show up on field like you want you 367 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: want that? Like you want that yeah, and there's there's 368 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: I had that along the way from a lot of 369 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 1: different guys. So to his point, every stop that I had, 370 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: most likely in my first really my first three years, 371 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: there were guys that I watched didn't necessarily always tell them, 372 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 1: but I watch how they prepare. I watch how they 373 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: approach practice. I watch how they prepare for practice. I 374 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 1: watch how they approach walkthroughs. I watch how they studied film. 375 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 1: Like there was a guy watched them in the weight room, 376 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 1: watched them in conditioning, Like these are guys that you 377 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: sit back as a young puppy and you're like, dang, 378 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: that's okay, that's what I want. That's why I what 379 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 1: I inspire to be, Like, right, I don't necessarily want 380 00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: to be that player, but I inspire to add those characteristics, right, 381 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: and those attributes to what it is that I do 382 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: so that I could become a better player, which is 383 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: exactly that puts Lve in the same air as far 384 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: as preparation and reverence for the younger guys who are 385 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 1: looking up to players as Tyrn Smith and Tyrand's preparation 386 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: and how he practices. Hell, yesterday, Michael Parsons was talking 387 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: about how in the d line room they always talk 388 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: about hating going up against Tyrn Smith, even it walkthroughs, 389 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: because everyone else is walking through, but Tyrn is one 390 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 1: every single rep, every single snap, and you walk up 391 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: to him thinking in a walkthrough, Okay, well this is 392 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: just going to be a tap tap and he leaves 393 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 1: two marks on your chest, right. And so Lv is 394 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: having that kind of an influence, a positive influence on 395 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 1: a guy like Jake Ferguson on the offensive side of 396 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: the ball, similar to what Tyren Smith is having on 397 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 1: the defensive line, and some of those guys on the 398 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball saying, hey, this is how 399 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 1: you have to prep to be not only a professional, 400 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: but have an elite career. And unfortunately for Lve, the 401 00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: only reason that well one of the only reasons that 402 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: he had kind of a downturn from his first season, 403 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: which was a breakout year, was outside of you know, 404 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 1: changes that defensive coordinator, which matters, but he also had 405 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: the injury, the injuries that kind of almost slowed or 406 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: slowed him and almost to rail his career. Credit to 407 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: him for bouncing back having what I don't really I 408 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 1: don't even care if he gets or if he did 409 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: or did not get a Pro Bowl honor, if he 410 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: Willow would not get an All Pro honor. For me, 411 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: this is Pro Bowl. Lve right here. This is the 412 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: best season he's had since twenty eighteen, and so I'm 413 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 1: right there with you now. Speaking of Tyren Smith, he 414 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: did show up on the injury report. I don't sense 415 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: that there is any concern. Keep in mind the injury 416 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: that he suffered. He's back, but you know, the year 417 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 1: wasn't over for him, it wasn't season into. He's back. 418 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 1: He didn't show up on the injury report last week. 419 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 1: I'm of the mindset of since Thursday was technically Wednesday's 420 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: practice for the Cowboys. Wednesday has historically been kind of 421 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 1: a scale back day for Tyren Smith to kind of 422 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: rest him in management low management. So I'm of the 423 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 1: impression that will be the case and we'll see what 424 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: it comes out for to day. But Tyren Smith was 425 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: limited to Marcus Lawrence. Surprise, surprise, He's on the injury 426 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: report and he's limited to give, which has been the 427 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: case four weeks now as he continues to play an 428 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: elite level despite all the things that he's working through. 429 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: He's getting through it, doing a good job of trying 430 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 1: to the Bay. Tampa Bay had a much much longer 431 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:25,159 Speaker 1: injury report, however, nothing that really stands out. Mike Evans 432 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: was there but with an illness before participant and go 433 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 1: down the line, I mean Keyan O'Neill was it. Did 434 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: not participate on yesterday with a neat issue. But he's 435 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: not really a contributor for that offense, so Logan Ryan. Yeah, 436 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 1: so just a bunch of names, not a lot going on. 437 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: Vita Vall was limited with a calf. I think that's 438 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: just management, right, Vita is not going to miss this game. 439 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: So yeah. Nothing of note coming out of the Tampa 440 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 1: Bay either. Very nice. All right, let's take our first 441 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,360 Speaker 1: break when we come back. Who does the Marcus Lawrence 442 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 1: think as a rookie will play a huge key in 443 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: getting a win over Tampa Bay. I'll tell you that answered, 444 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: and we'll give you our matchups to watch between the 445 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 1: Buccaneers and the Cowboys.

I got to sit down with 514 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: him and I asked him what makes this moment special? 515 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: And what makes a playoff moment special? And I've thought, 516 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: actually thought of Isaiah whenever he gave this answer, But 517 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 1: he said, it's because you're never gonna get it back. 518 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: You don't get this chance again. You never know when 519 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,719 Speaker 1: you're gonna be back in the playoffs. And even if 520 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 1: you are in the playoffs, are you truly going to 521 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 1: be a contender? Right? How do you make the most 522 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: of this moment? If you're the Dallas Cowboys. What is 523 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: the number one thing you've got to do to make 524 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,120 Speaker 1: the most of this moment because you only get it once. 525 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: What do you think, no self inflicted wounds? Okay, don't 526 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:51,479 Speaker 1: go to Tampa and beat yourself. Force them to beat you, 527 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: Force them to show you that they are in fact 528 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: the better team. And if they can do that and 529 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: the game goes that way, then heart yes, but you 530 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: know they were the better team. But if you go 531 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 1: out there and you start shooting and stabbing yourself in 532 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,199 Speaker 1: the foot and you lose because of that, that that 533 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: is even more gut wrenching and heartbreaking because it's a 534 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: it's a blown opportunity. I mean, you walk in as 535 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 1: the better team and you let a lesser team defeat 536 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: you only because you gave them the game. So self 537 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: inflicted wounds, It's like I wrote in yesterday's edition of 538 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: Science Laftal check that out on the Dallas Cowboys dot com. 539 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: The time for self inflicted wounds has now expired. Period, 540 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: Like that milk in your fridge, It's it's over. Yeah, 541 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: it's over. Take every lesson you learned from self harm 542 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: over the course of the previous seventeen games. Roll it up. 543 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 1: Into one big ball of lessons and let it motivate 544 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:51,679 Speaker 1: you to eliminate the possibility of harming yourself between the 545 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 1: lines going forward, and you will put yourself in an 546 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: excellent position to turn the now into the later. Otherwise 547 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: there is no later if you're ruined now. I agree. 548 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: I just don't no turnovers, Yeah, very much so. I 549 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: think as long as you play in that I was 550 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: gonna say a clean game, but that's a very broad statement. 551 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: My biggest thing is just be don't turn the ball 552 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 1: over and be competitive. That's all I ask. You're gonna 553 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 1: get out schemes sometimes, somebody's gonna make bigger plays sometimes. 554 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 1: But to hit to your point, just don't beat yourself up, right, 555 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: don't be the reason why you look back and say, 556 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 1: damn right, we missed again, Because I mean, even though 557 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 1: I walked away with a ring like, I still think 558 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 1: that the best team that I was on was my 559 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 1: rookie year here in Dallas. Yeah, at seventeen and seventeen. 560 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: That's I feel like that was the greatest amount of 561 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: talent on one team and we missed it. We missed 562 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: the opportunity, and that would have been freaking awesome. Perfect 563 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: example would be look at look at twenty fourteen, right, 564 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 1: you got the league's leading rusher by a huge margin 565 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 1: into marcol Murray. That's helping set up Tony rom would 566 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: to have a career season in the past. And the 567 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: tech you look at this, and I mean even t 568 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: Will was contributing. You have all of these things going, 569 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: the defense is rocking, and you're in the divisional round. 570 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: And I know it's easy to kind of point to 571 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: the dass catch and yes it wasn't catch as the 572 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 1: reason the Cowboys lost the game, but the self inflicted 573 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: wound that ended the Cowboys season technically was DeMarco Murray's 574 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: fumble caused by the Boss Peppers. So and you would 575 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,959 Speaker 1: think as special as that season it was, and you're like, okay, 576 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: well reload, just reload. It's as simple as reload. And 577 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 1: not in this league. Not in this league. You got 578 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: free agency, you got attrition, you got coaches being poached 579 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: here and there, etcetera, etcetera. You may never get that 580 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,479 Speaker 1: moment back. And those guys in that locker room from 581 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, guess what, they never got the moment back 582 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen. What happened Tony Romo got injured. You ended 583 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: up having a carousel of three or four different quarterbacks 584 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 1: in all horrible season, and it just never got back 585 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 1: until Dak Prescott, Ezekiel Elliott kind of helped turn the 586 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: page in twenty sixteen. But my main point is you 587 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: only have right now, So don't don't go in thinking, oh, 588 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: if we don't get it done right now, we got 589 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: it next year. That's what those guys in fourteen thought, 590 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 1: That's what the guys in oh seven, we're hoping. That's 591 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: not how this league is built. You're lucky to be 592 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 1: back here after losing the opportunity last year, if you're 593 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: if we're being real, and Mike McCarthy said it earlier 594 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: this week, he said, we're not harping on it, but 595 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: we learned from it. That lost to San Francisco in 596 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: the wildcard round a year ago, you felt like you 597 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 1: were the better team in that game. Still, you were healthy. 598 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: You felt like, even though it was a tough matchup 599 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: on paper, Dallas was the better team. They didn't get 600 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: the job done at home in front of their home crowd, 601 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 1: and it was it was a huge point, but a 602 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: lot of that was self inflicted wounds. A lot of 603 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: that was just San Francisco coming out and hitting me 604 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 1: in the mouth. Tampa Bay can certainly do that. They 605 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: may be eight and nine, don't look at the records anymore. 606 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: This Tampa Bay team can certainly jump out and hit 607 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: you in the mouth. Sea completely a new season now. 608 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: I did ask d Law as well. I said, who 609 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: has impressed you on this defense so much so from 610 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: week one to now? Who has impressed improved the most? 611 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: Who has made you turn your head at times? I 612 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: halfway expected it to be a Trayvon or a Mica. 613 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: He said two names, he said, Durron Bland and Damon Clark. 614 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: I was like, d Law, you realize those are two rookies, right. 615 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, I do, but they're not playing right 616 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: like rookies anymore. And Demon he's got some rookie stuff 617 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: to him. Duran's got some rookie stuff to him. They're 618 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: both playing good football. But the way that they've improved 619 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: from week one is what impressed d Law. I asked 620 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: them how crucial they were going into this matchup. He said, 621 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: they're outstandingly crucial because even though Layton vander Esh's back 622 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: to them, Owe's gonna file in durn is going to 623 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: be there in the nickel spot dealing with that chest injury. 624 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 1: How big are both of those guys to the fold 625 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: of trying to fill in those puzzles, And they're huge. 626 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: I mean you're talking about we mentioned earlier in the 627 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: week about the plethora of receivers that they have proven 628 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 1: receivers over there in Tampa. They have, but they got 629 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: a whole bag of boots over and they really got 630 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: a solid They got a solid four, and they got 631 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: they got a fifth guy in Tompkins that they just 632 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 1: brought in that I think everybody better have their eyes 633 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: on because they're gonna use him in the screen game. 634 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: He is freaking explosive. So they have a bunch of 635 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: guys and you're gonna need to run Bland right, there's 636 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: no doubt about that. We're hurt and down right now 637 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: at the cornerback position. We're hoping that guys are able 638 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: to step up and make some plays. Uh you know, 639 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 1: We're hoping that National Right is able to come up 640 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: there for some pressure on the line of scrimmage. We're 641 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: hoping that his Zavy Rhodes shows up and does the 642 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: opposite of what Mullen did. Last week because that was 643 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: an experiment, but that's what you're in. You're in experiment 644 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 1: mode with some of these guys, So the whope factor 645 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: is there, so you're hoping that where there's the strongest, 646 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: that you all of a sudden could now be strong 647 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 1: as well in this in some very important week. And 648 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: then I already talked about demon Clark in the importance 649 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: of him. I mentioned that vander ash I'm glad he's 650 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: coming back, and though I think he would have an 651 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: extreme impact on this game, but in terms of what 652 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 1: they do well right offensively for Tampa, in terms of 653 00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 1: trying to spread this defense out and god him going 654 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 1: sideline the sideline, I think daman Clark is going to 655 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: be very instrumental as well in terms of what he 656 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: can present um as as accessory for dan Quinn and 657 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: his defense. He's going to be very important for his 658 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 1: ability to be able to sit in a box and 659 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: run out and hit somebody in her mouth. Did you 660 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: say hope at the cornerback positions Hope as a strategy, 661 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 1: it's not a strategy. Strategy, it's not a strategy, but 662 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 1: it's it's definitely a wish wish, I wish upon a star. Yeah. Absolutely, 663 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: I truly think that about I truly think that Tampa 664 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: has an advantaged personnel wise at the receiver position versus 665 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 1: r dB. That's I think. So, Yeah, that's just fact. 666 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 1: If you had to circle a matchup, that would probably 667 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: be the one where they have the advantage. So you're 668 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: at in the offensive line and you're missing your two veterans, 669 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 1: two of your three veterans at the cornerback position. Yeah, okay, 670 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,719 Speaker 1: you brought in another veteran. You tried him out last week. Okay, 671 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 1: now you grab another veteran. You're bringing him in to 672 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: get get his feet wet and hopefully he can have 673 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: a resurgence of his own better pedigree. Absolutely, but what 674 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: are you still doing? No, you're still hoping, hoping. You're 675 00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 1: still hoping that that that the Pro Bowl version of 676 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: him shows up, but you don't know, you don't know. 677 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: So that's what I'm saying, Like they have the advantage there. 678 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: You're hoping that you're young boys show up and then 679 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 1: your veteran shows up and starts making some place for 680 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 1: your never going and you hope Mike Evans actually is 681 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: in Tom Brady's ear saying I want fifteen targets by 682 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,720 Speaker 1: all means that works in your favor if you're the Cowboys, 683 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 1: because then you you have you get to lean less 684 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 1: on you know, Nashan Wright and Xavier Rhodes who just 685 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,879 Speaker 1: got here at last Saturday less than a week ago. 686 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: But Drond and Damon Clark, they're gonna be huge, particularly 687 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,959 Speaker 1: Durron Bland. And good news is everyone anyone who was uh, 688 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,360 Speaker 1: you know, mostly paying attention to the news and notes 689 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 1: when I read off the injury report, guess whose named 690 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: I didn't say Durron Bland. Ron Bland was not on 691 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 1: the injury report at all, not even with a full designation. 692 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 1: He's fully healthy, he's rolling, he's rolling. So good news 693 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: there is you're getting to d Ron Bland and obviously 694 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: healthy Trevillon Diggs against Tom Brady. But when it comes 695 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 1: to Deman Clark, keep in mind, this was supposed to 696 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: be a rid shirt season for the On Clark and 697 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: he's not only come in, but he's come in with 698 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:06,720 Speaker 1: at a point in the season where he had plenty 699 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: of games to get to a point where you should 700 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 1: feel comfortable that he'll be able to make some plays. 701 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: Now he's going against Tom Brady, Yes, so there are 702 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: going to be some hiccups there. Yeah. Um, but Tom 703 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: Brady once he gets the ball out of his hands 704 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,879 Speaker 1: and into the hands of a playmaker, supposed playmaker Damon Clark, 705 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 1: will have opportunities to become that himself in Monday's game. 706 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 1: So love what de Law said. They're fantastic two rookies. Yeah, yeah, 707 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: it love it really cool to hear him say that, 708 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,359 Speaker 1: and both those guys who were great. Well, we'll have 709 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,280 Speaker 1: a couple of clips of that on on our pregame 710 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: show coming up on Monday.

Yes, he lighted up. Yeah, 714 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: how do he do? He did? Well? Stand back out there, 715 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: I'm saying, shoulders were all propped up. I did. I 716 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:05,360 Speaker 1: didn't call the blitz. Could you imagine we're taping a 717 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 1: segment and then he calls his own audible and just 718 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: runs at you and hits the ball out like derails 719 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 1: the whole segment.

Remember Week eighteen. Okay, remember the Commanders, Remember 783 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:23,280 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars, Remember the Green Bay Packers. I believe 784 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,880 Speaker 1: this Cowboys team will get a lead on Tampa Bay early, 785 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:34,439 Speaker 1: but remember particularly the Jaguars and the Packers. Don't let up, 786 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 1: do not get comfortable, continue to keep mamba. Mentality has 787 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,279 Speaker 1: to be had against Tom Brady. If you allow this 788 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 1: game to be close in the fourth quarter, you are 789 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,959 Speaker 1: in the danger zone. You are in the danger zone. 790 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 1: So remember the Packers, remember the Jaguars, remember the Commanders, 791 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 1: and go handle your business like there is no tomorrow, 792 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,760 Speaker 1: because guess what, there ain't unless you handle your business. 793 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 1: This is for hands or it's just for what we're 794 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 1: talking about. Let's let's do it for the team, for 795 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: the team. This is for the team. That's kind of 796 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,880 Speaker 1: what Patrick had Bean feeling there when each play I 797 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 1: like it, don't don't look don't look to the next quarter, 798 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,319 Speaker 1: don't look to it's when the next play. And that's 799 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 1: very important because when you add that up, when you 800 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 1: add those those plays up, you should come out to victor. 801 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 1: But if you look too far down the road, you're 802 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 1: gonna hit speed bumps. You can hit potholes that you 803 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 1: don't see because your eyes aren't aren't aren't grounded. You're 804 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 1: not looking You're not looking in the near future, right, 805 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 1: You're not looking at the right now, You're looking down there. 806 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,879 Speaker 1: You might get up early. You be oh man, start 807 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 1: looking at the clocks. Are clock watching? Okay? Yeah? Yeah, 808 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 1: the Falcons they clock watched two against TB twelve. Don't 809 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 1: clock watch right when the next play, and keep putting 810 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 1: that together and eventually you look up and you'll see 811 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 1: that clock hits some zeros and you got the w 812 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: and that's all that matters. So when your next play, 813 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 1: I like that when you're play. Uh. I got a 814 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 1: chance yesterday outside of locker room capablelies. I got to 815 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 1: show Dak Prescott, Oh you did it. I got to. 816 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,200 Speaker 1: I took the clip from Jeff and upper Ball, Marlborough, Maryland, 817 00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: the reverend that called us on talking Tuesday and gave 818 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 1: Dak a nice pep talk, a nice little faith speech. 819 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 1: I showed Dak the entire video. He watched every single 820 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 1: second of it, and he loved it. He loved it. 821 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 1: He was buying in said thanks for showing. Let's go. 822 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:26,759 Speaker 1: So there's a little motivation. So mine is saying, have 823 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:30,959 Speaker 1: some faith, have some faith. Things aren't perfect, they're never 824 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,280 Speaker 1: going to be perfect. But just like we said earlier, 825 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 1: you only get one moment. This moment is here, one 826 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,799 Speaker 1: time to knock off the best to ever do it. 827 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: Potentially simmed him off, send him out of there. I 828 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 1: don't know if that's actually gonna happen in terms of 829 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 1: the postseason stuff or the offseason stuff. Whatever, do your 830 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 1: job and get it done this weekend. You got one moment, 831 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:54,200 Speaker 1: you got one shot, have some faith and get it done. 832 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,959 Speaker 1: By the way, as I was teasing into the break 833 00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:00,120 Speaker 1: Draft Kings, I said, we were going to help you 834 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 1: win some money on DraftKings. I unfortunately didn't realize that 835 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,720 Speaker 1: since it's a Monday night game, none of those numbers 836 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:08,439 Speaker 1: are up there. So, uh, you can play for free 837 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,719 Speaker 1: for over a million dollars on DraftKings dot com. And 838 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: we were probably all going to pick the defensive special 839 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 1: teams anyway for the value. So what we would do 840 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 1: is take take this moment at for quick news and 841 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 1: note Ryan Jensen, okay, not only starting tackle for the 842 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But the anchor and leader of that 843 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:29,280 Speaker 1: offensive line, not the glue guy, the glue guy, the anchor. Um, 844 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 1: he's he's back to practicing. It's been on ir you know, 845 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,319 Speaker 1: the entire season. Still in his twenty one day window though. Um, 846 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:41,439 Speaker 1: but I'll read this from Tampa Bay. He's our center, Yeah, 847 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: Jensen's their centers. Yeah, he's there. Tampa Bay Times said 848 00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 1: that they since quote unquote, since no momentum um for 849 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 1: Jensen plane on Monday. Now, of course that comment was 850 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:58,319 Speaker 1: made on Thursday. Several days remained between now and then, 851 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,799 Speaker 1: and you also look at what's on the for Tampa Bay. 852 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 1: I personally believe he takes the field, even if the 853 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:08,400 Speaker 1: trainers have to get creative hint hint. But as it stands, 854 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,920 Speaker 1: just for just so Cowboys fans know from a from 855 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:15,359 Speaker 1: an objective standpoint, Ryan Jensen. It's being reported that there 856 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 1: is no momentum that he plays. But I wouldn't necessarily 857 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:19,720 Speaker 1: take that bait prepare for him and I can't speak 858 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 1: to this with confidence, but I can speak to it 859 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,759 Speaker 1: based by my opinion. I think Jensen is one of 860 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 1: the key factors as to why its on Brady came back. Yeah, 861 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: I think you're right. I try wholeheartedly believe as long 862 00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:34,759 Speaker 1: as he had his center he was coming back. And 863 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 1: as soon as he said he was coming back, Jensen 864 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 1: went down with the injury. All right. So now that 865 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 1: we have it all on the table, have it all 866 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 1: out in front for you to make your decisions, it's 867 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 1: time to make them. Take them for trying to pick 868 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:50,320 Speaker 1: up games. We've got our special guest, Abe in Las Vegas. 869 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 1: What's up, Babe? You're on talking cowboys? What's going on? 870 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 1: Gentlemen to you?

Let's start things off in the NFC West rematch. 876 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 1: This is the Seattle Seahawks squeaking into the playoffs by 877 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 1: the skin of their teeth. Can they take down brock 878 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,320 Speaker 1: Purty in the San Francisco forty nine ers. I'm gonna 879 00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 1: start with Patrick. Let's get crazy. I crave chaos, violence, 880 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 1: Gino with the win Yozy, That's what I'm talking about, 881 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 1: give me San Francisco to win it, and they win 882 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 1: in buy multiple scores. Abe who you got? I think 883 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:40,960 Speaker 1: San Francisco Geason's playing so well right now. They're playing 884 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:44,600 Speaker 1: really collectively. San Francisco Seattle for here. See, here's the thing. 885 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 1: I want San Francisco. I want to see San Francisco. 886 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 1: I want to see Philly. I want to see Minnesota. 887 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 1: I want to see whoever the heck we're gonna play 888 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 1: in the second round. You got. That's good for you. 889 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:00,799 Speaker 1: Y'all know them from Seattle. But I'm not. I'm not 890 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:02,360 Speaker 1: a fan. I'm not a fan boy. You know what 891 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 1: I'm saying. I'm a fan of Seattle anything right, But 892 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:06,920 Speaker 1: you're such a lie. I'm a fan of Seattle. But 893 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:08,800 Speaker 1: I'm a realist at the same time, you guys, notice, 894 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 1: I truly think that Seattle is gonna gonna bust San 895 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,760 Speaker 1: fran into mouth and cant I'm slipping. That's how I feel. 896 00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 1: I truly believe that. No, do I think that Seattle 897 00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 1: is a better team. No, I don't think Seattle is 898 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 1: a better team. I think that Seattle is lucky to 899 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:22,880 Speaker 1: even be in the playoffs this year, based upon the 900 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:25,759 Speaker 1: year that they had this offseason. But I think that 901 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 1: if anybody can sneak and bust san Fran in the 902 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:32,560 Speaker 1: mouth because they play each other so often. Yeah, Pete Carroll, 903 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,400 Speaker 1: like you even saw him throw a little shade out there. Unfortunately, 904 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 1: we're playing them forty nine ers. I think Walker goes 905 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 1: off in this game, and I think that Seattle wins. Okay, 906 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:45,200 Speaker 1: maybe all right, how about the birds? Uh, let's go 907 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:50,440 Speaker 1: with the Jacksonville Jaguars hosting the Los Angeles Chargers and 908 00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 1: all time hair matchup. Trevor Lawrence going up against Justin Herbert, 909 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 1: two quarterbacks that are always trending upward. Right now, able 910 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 1: to let you start on this one, Chargers at Jags. 911 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 1: You know what, after seeing what the Jags did to 912 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 1: us a few weeks back, Um, they obviously have a 913 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 1: legitimate offense. I'm gonna give them a close one. I'm 914 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:14,839 Speaker 1: gonna take the jackson all right, Isaac. I believe that 915 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:18,359 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson is back and back for vengeance, and I 916 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:20,799 Speaker 1: think that he is gonna send Brandon Staley to the 917 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 1: uneployment office, and you'll have to go go ahead and start 918 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:27,359 Speaker 1: those conversations up. He's in the playoffs. He'll be going home. 919 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:31,759 Speaker 1: Oh oh okay. I'm taking Peterson in the playoffs over 920 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:34,920 Speaker 1: Brandon Staley every day of the week, especially at home. 921 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:37,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a game here Jacksonville takes give me 922 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:39,799 Speaker 1: the shock shock, give me the Chargers getting to win 923 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 1: on the road. Jacksonville is not a tough place to 924 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,640 Speaker 1: play in terms of like a playoff atmosphere. They will 925 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:52,280 Speaker 1: give they ever had to the military. It'll be Rock Peterson, 926 00:47:52,640 --> 00:48:00,839 Speaker 1: greater than sign Us Naval Base will be there, all right. 927 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:07,880 Speaker 1: Dolphins on the road against the Bills. Give me the Bills, Bills, Bills, Bills, 928 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 1: all right, that one's quick, all right. Giants after Vikings, 929 00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 1: Minnesota trying to take down the NFC East for the 930 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 1: first time at home this postseason, Patrick, and they won't 931 00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 1: do it. Giants are gonna go in and upset the 932 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:24,279 Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings. Wow, you were all over chaos this, but 933 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 1: I've been on I've said, alas, get a host of 934 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 1: the matchups were set. I said, the Giants are gonna 935 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 1: go in. Minnesota doesn't typically play well on their own field. 936 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 1: They can be head, they can be head. Dallas gonna 937 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,840 Speaker 1: somehow host a playoff game next weekend. If both of 938 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:43,359 Speaker 1: those come true, bable, I think the Giants are gonna 939 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:47,919 Speaker 1: bust Minnes inconsistent Minnesota Vikings in the Mountain. We've seen 940 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 1: what they are. You are who we thought you were. 941 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 1: Hebe who you got. You know. I went to the 942 00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 1: Giants and upset as well. I think Dousins time time 943 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 1: demons will come back and haunt him again. Give me 944 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:03,359 Speaker 1: the Vikings to get the land. I'm sorry. Ravens on 945 00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:06,400 Speaker 1: the road against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals have been 946 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:10,120 Speaker 1: playing really well as of late. Give me, give me 947 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 1: Cincy to get the win over a banged up Ravens team. 948 00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,319 Speaker 1: They still don't necessarily know if Lamar's playing right? Does 949 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:16,719 Speaker 1: that come out yet? It doesn't seem like he is. 950 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 1: It doesn't look like he's gonna play. No, give me, 951 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: no Lamar, no chance, give me Joe Burrowing Company. Yeah. 952 00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 1: I think Lamar Jackson has pulled a David Chappelle from 953 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:26,320 Speaker 1: Blue Streaking. But it can come hold us as a 954 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,440 Speaker 1: old discombobulated right now. So I'm gonna go ahead and 955 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:34,920 Speaker 1: take uh yeah, Cincinnati Cincy? All right, Hey, yeah, I 956 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:38,759 Speaker 1: give coin for sure.

I do think that Minnesota loses. 973 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:38,240 Speaker 1: I think there's gonna be a lot of disruption before 974 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:39,880 Speaker 1: this game, and I think it's gonna be set up 975 00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:42,759 Speaker 1: for Dallas to have a nice, little clean road through 976 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,800 Speaker 1: the playoffs. But I'm not sure and I don't wholeheartedly 977 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 1: believe that they're gonna be able to stop this offensive attack. 978 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 1: I love Dan Quinn, but I don't know if he 979 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 1: has the personnel to stop this this ambush that's about 980 00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:57,719 Speaker 1: to happen. So I gotta go on Tampa Bay. Unfortunately, 981 00:50:57,800 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 1: I don't want to say that, but that's just when 982 00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:05,320 Speaker 1: my heart says to one, Okay. I think the Cowboys, 983 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:08,920 Speaker 1: uh cow blows get exchanged early in the script, it 984 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,400 Speaker 1: plays from both teams um. Then the Cowboys start to 985 00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 1: pull away, and then Tom Brady does Tom Brady stuff 986 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,719 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, and this comes down to a 987 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:22,160 Speaker 1: Brett Maher kick and he makes it twenty seven twenty 988 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:26,360 Speaker 1: four Cowboys onto the Divisional round twenty four. See. I 989 00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 1: think it's a little different than what you guys are 990 00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:33,040 Speaker 1: saying I do. I think. I think Dallas comes out 991 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 1: with a chip on their shoulder. I think they come 992 00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,080 Speaker 1: out I think they kick their ass in the first half. 993 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:43,960 Speaker 1: I think they're by multiple scores going into halftime, and 994 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,279 Speaker 1: then they hold on down the stretch and don't even 995 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:51,360 Speaker 1: let the gap close. I'm just saying it's gonna be 996 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:53,879 Speaker 1: right there. They're gonna take care of business. They're gonna 997 00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:56,839 Speaker 1: get the crowd, the crowd out of it early. Give 998 00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:00,160 Speaker 1: me the Cowboys to win it. Thirty one seventeen on 999 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 1: the road, thirty one seventeen Cowboys. They get the job done. 1000 00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 1: And that is what we will bring to an in 1001 00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,719 Speaker 1: this week here on Talking Cowboys.
