Like bowing up to the robot was a 0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:41.200 highlight of my year. Yeah, Like it was like, hold on. 0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:44.520 Now, Benji, try to walk the wrong one. He did? 0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:46.440 He did. I don't know meantimes, ben you ran up 0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:49.680 on a real one. Before saying he grew. 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.120 Up in Washington, he would know, he would know better. 0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:55.640 Yeah, what'd you say that? 0:03:55.840 --> 0:04:01.560 Okay, Kyrie, Oh, Kyrie. Yeah, same type of robots, almost 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:04.200 like the same model as Showbot show. 0:04:04.520 --> 0:04:06.720 I tried to get Nate to block it. I wanted 0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:09.280 Nate to block the robotak and they were like, go 0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:11.680 for it, you can do it, and Nate was like, 0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:12.560 I'm not doing it. 0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:15.200 I was like, okay, that's Phil Bingi's only like four 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:17.680 foot five, four foot baby. 0:04:17.720 --> 0:04:20.800 What are you got his measurables on you? I don't know. 0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:22.679 He was heavy enough to handle Bush. 0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:26.680 The way he walked around the studio is clank clank, 0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:28.200 clank play. 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:31.120 He was heavy, got some got some girth to him, 0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:33.840 for sure. All Right, let's get into some news and notes. 0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:35.200 Tommy Yarrish. 0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:37.520 I don't know how to say away from that, but 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:40.880 uh all right, Kyle, Yeah, thanks Kyle, welcome back. 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:41.400 Uh. 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:46.520 No, biggest news is their week eighteen. Yeah, there's no 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:48.960 way to segue from that. Jiggest news is Cowboys week 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:52.159 eighteen game against the Giants Sunday at noon. It could 0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:54.719 have been Saturday, but they're keeping the two playoff games. 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:56.800 I think both of them are. One of them is 0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:59.640 winning in the other is for the one seed, I think, 0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:02.600 and forty nine Ers and Seahawks. I don't know if 0:05:02.600 --> 0:05:04.599 it's to clinch the one seed, but it's an important 0:05:04.600 --> 0:05:05.880 game for the one seed. 0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:09.200 Was there like a legit realistic chance they put Dallas 0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:09.760 on Saturday? 0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:09.920 There? 0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:12.920 They've only played on Saturday once since they've started doing it, 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:14.760 and it was the first year since they started doing this. 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.480 This is four straight years of playing on Sunday. The 0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:19.880 only reason I would think maybe is if there was 0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:23.280 number one pick implications, which there still are, but not 0:05:23.680 --> 0:05:26.039 in the Dallas game, they would have to put the 0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:28.120 Raiders game on as well. If the Raiders win and 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:30.599 the Giants lose, I think the Giants get the number 0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:34.680 one overall pick. So I think both of those games 0:05:34.720 --> 0:05:37.960 will be noon games on Sunday, and so Dallas closing 0:05:38.000 --> 0:05:40.560 out on the road at noon. That's your biggest piece 0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:45.479 of news and notes for that, and then other than that, 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:46.760 I'm trying to think if there was anything. 0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:49.360 It was a quiet weekend, man, Yeah, very quiet weekend. 0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:51.800 You know, we'll see the biggest thing we'll find out 0:05:51.839 --> 0:05:54.280 either today or tomorrow is whether or not Dak Prescott's 0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:57.320 going to play. Yeah. I think when you listen to 0:05:57.320 --> 0:05:59.440 Brian Schadheimer after the game, he got asked about it 0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:00.800 and he was like, yeah, I'm just gonna go drink 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:03.560 some egnog and then we'll decide on that later. I 0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:05.800 don't see any reason why Prescott plays in this game. 0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:08.239 I mean, he got hit six times, he got sacks 0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:11.400 six times, he got hit eleven more last week. I 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:12.800 just don't think it's worth it. I don't think he 0:06:12.839 --> 0:06:15.280 should have played the last YEP two games there. 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:17.520 It is every snap that he had in the second half. 0:06:17.560 --> 0:06:17.760 I know. 0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:21.800 I heard Isaiah in like a disturbance in the forest. 0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:22.360 I heard is. 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:27.440 I mean we were in studio and every time he 0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:30.599 even remotely was chased down, both of us were. 0:06:30.440 --> 0:06:33.640 Just like this, Yeah, it's like, don't take the chance. 0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:33.920 Why? 0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:36.280 Why? 0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:37.920 Here's my thing. 0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:41.800 Right in today's NFL, the backup quarterback position is so 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:44.160 important because you just never know, you never know. Look 0:06:44.200 --> 0:06:45.960 all these teams around the NFL that have had to 0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:49.239 lean on backups, and I mean Philip Rivers for one instance. 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:53.200 And if you're going to have a guy that is 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:56.520 behind Nack Prescott, who looking at his history has suffered 0:06:56.560 --> 0:07:00.000 injuries in certain seasons. You need somebody that's had games 0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:02.039 under his belt. The Cowboys don't have that anymore in 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:05.279 Cooper Rush, who was that for so long. Joe Milton 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:07.919 hasn't started a game yet in his NFL career. Maybe 0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:09.080 the one a New I don't know if that was 0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:11.960 a start, But nonetheless, the guy needs the reps I 0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:13.960 think you should have gotten in the last couple of weeks. 0:07:14.240 --> 0:07:16.800 I mean, would you feel differently if Dak Prescott played 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:19.760 one series and then gave his Joe Milt. 0:07:19.920 --> 0:07:20.240 I don't. 0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:23.000 I don't see why he I understand what you're. 0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:24.840 Saying, but so that he can start all seventeen games 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.239 that yeah, from his perspective, he wants that's. 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:29.840 I would be fine with that, Yeah, But I think 0:07:29.880 --> 0:07:32.800 at the same time, every in game rep that you 0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:35.760 can give Joe Milton is incredibly valuable. 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:38.800 Absolutely, do you play any into the factor and we'll 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:42.240 see how many yards he needs by the end of 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:45.920 tonight because the Rams played tonight. But the top two 0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:48.920 passers in the NFL right now are Dak Prescott. 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:49.360 And Matthew Stafford. 0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:52.080 There has never been a Cowboys quarterback that has led 0:07:52.120 --> 0:07:55.720 the NFL in passing. You guys already know my answer. 0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:58.200 I don't care. Put him on the sideline. Let's win 0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:00.200 in twenty twenty six. But do you feel like. 0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:03.000 There's anything that plays into that from a player standpoint, 0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:05.920 with a chance to lead the league in passing for 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:08.320 the first time not only in his career, but in 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:09.800 his franchise's history. 0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:15.080 Kyle, I'm gonna say no. He's making sixty million dollars. 0:08:15.800 --> 0:08:18.320 Okay, But is that the realistic answer or is that 0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:19.160 the common. 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:23.000 If I'm making sixty million dollars, that's all I care about. 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:27.520 Sit down, sixty million dollars in no playoffs. I'll just 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:30.080 take the sixty Thank. 0:08:29.920 --> 0:08:32.040 You appreciation much. 0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:38.640 I again, as a competitor, yeah, obviously, But as a 0:08:39.160 --> 0:08:42.480 being a looking at it from a realistic standpoint, no, 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:44.480 I don't think so. It's not worth it, not with 0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:46.040 this pass rush that you're going to face. 0:08:47.400 --> 0:08:49.920 I think you give him the serious especially if it's 0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:52.400 up to hit and he's making the decision for himself. 0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:54.679 I want to start all seventeen games, give him a series. 0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:56.400 What does that do for him? Huh? 0:08:56.440 --> 0:08:58.440 That lets him start all seventeen games. 0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:01.160 I'll give him a snap give him a snap, give 0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:02.080 him a snap, run. 0:09:01.960 --> 0:09:05.080 The ball to just taking it literally like second and 0:09:05.080 --> 0:09:07.680 eleven start and then get. 0:09:07.559 --> 0:09:07.920 Out of there. 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:11.120 Honestly, I'll take it, but I will not I want 0:09:11.200 --> 0:09:13.520 him off the field, obviously, but I understand from the 0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:17.040 like you said, the competitive standpoint. Dak Prescott vocally has 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:19.920 been saying, you know, I'm playing these games, so I 0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:20.920 get it, but he. 0:09:20.920 --> 0:09:23.160 Wants to I don't like it. He wants to be there. 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:26.520 I believe it was Ryan Clark who had some commentary 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:27.959 on it on a national. 0:09:27.679 --> 0:09:30.400 Ryan Clark, he listened to ourselves and copied it was. 0:09:30.520 --> 0:09:33.080 Very similar to what Isaiah was saying. I think he 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:36.960 did listen, yeah, the but what he was saying was 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:40.640 mirroring what you said last year, Isaiah, which is there's 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:46.200 no residual down. Yeah, I protect you, protect yourself from 0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:49.480 player from himself. That's why he definitely listened to Talking Cowboy. 0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:52.120 He just said that, yeah, exactly, exactly. 0:09:53.600 --> 0:09:55.880 Yes, Well, that's one of the things that I disagree 0:09:55.880 --> 0:10:00.360 with Brian on was that decision of Schottenheimer. Yeah, yeah, 0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:04.200 is to play Dak playing back to the last two games. 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:09.240 Really for what I get, playing him against the Chargers 0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:11.880 I get playing against the Charge, for sure. They were 0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:14.960 prepping the whole week, they were planning on possibly being 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:17.160 in the playoffs scenario. But that should have been the 0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:20.280 final chance, yep, final Who wrong? And now that it 0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:22.360 hasn't been and you've turned around and you've. 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:24.120 Ended on a high note. He played well, I mean 0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:26.199 he didn't play his best game of all time. We'll 0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:26.960 get to that in a moment. 0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:29.280 Oh yeah, but if he. 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:32.080 Still won the game, if you play him this week, 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.000 how can you stand by anything that you said this 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:39.600 previous week, which is whatever coach Schottenheimer said in regards 0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:41.800 of his justification for playing Dak and the rest of 0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:45.079 the superstars on his team. You had nothing to gain, right, 0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:47.640 So if you had nothing to gain this previous week, 0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:50.959 why would you then turn and change your mind all 0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:52.920 of a sudden in what you say? 0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:53.959 All screw that? 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:57.000 Well, you have nothing to gain, But like Tommy just illustrated, 0:10:57.080 --> 0:10:59.479 you have something to gain, and giving Joel. 0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:03.959 Saying like if the reason last week wasn't good enough 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:06.800 to sit back, then why would it be good enough 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:07.640 this this coming week? 0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:12.200 You know what what I'm saying? Like the situations the same. 0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:14.640 Yeah, say that it's the last game of the season. 0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:15.960 That would be my only con. 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:19.240 I mean, get nothing on Christmas Day. 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.280 I mean freaking absolutely. 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:24.520 That's what it comes to the politics of sports. That's 0:11:24.520 --> 0:11:26.320 what it comes down to, the politics and sports. Let's 0:11:26.360 --> 0:11:28.079 be real, there are politics and sports. 0:11:28.120 --> 0:11:28.400 People. 0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:30.320 There's money that tells you that you have to do 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:34.320 certain things right. So that's what happened. You're playing on Netflix. 0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:35.640 That's the difference. 0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:36.400 Christmas Day. 0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:37.200 Christmas Day. 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:41.000 Now, your next game is noon on Sunday, amongst what 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:42.880 ten other games are gonna be at noon on Sunday. 0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:44.280 I think I just wish that they would call it 0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:46.400 what it is. Listen, we have a obligation to play it, 0:11:46.440 --> 0:11:48.680 you know whatever, Just call it what it will. 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:52.280 Maybe the Jones family when they're on the fan this week, 0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:53.319 because they're talking to. 0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:55.720 Whoever, They're like, yeah, you know what, we felt like 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:56.480 we needed to do it. 0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:58.120 I just wish the people we had to compete with 0:11:58.120 --> 0:11:58.680 stranger things. 0:11:58.679 --> 0:11:59.960 I just wish people would be more transparent. 0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:03.040 We understand the Richards risk every time we touched the field, 0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:03.800 all of our players. 0:12:03.880 --> 0:12:05.360 We don't want anybody to ever get hurt. 0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:08.120 But the reality is we have obligation to, you know, 0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:10.360 to NFL fans, especially on Christmas. 0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:11.800 Day, to go out there and give them their primetime 0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:13.160 players right and be done. 0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:17.120 It's ridiculous that you have to sort of succumb to 0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:21.680 like the obligations of being on you know, Netflix and everything. Anyways, 0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:23.880 the Gambler and his Cowboys now streaming. 0:12:25.200 --> 0:12:25.959 Be sure to check it. 0:12:25.880 --> 0:12:28.400 Out, and America's team the story of the Dallas Cowboys 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:32.960 cheerleaders also yes, also on somebody in the chat. I 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:36.440 don't want to give them the attention because they're kind 0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:39.360 of troll spamming here. But he's saying quitter mentality. I've 0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:43.320 heard that ground in different what there is in regard 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:44.520 of wanting. 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:47.280 To sit Dowack? How can you build a culture while 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:50.079 wanting to sit Dack? And there do you simple answer 0:12:50.160 --> 0:12:51.600 to that? Isaiah, I'll let you take. 0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:53.280 Yeah, what do you gain? Like? 0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:55.760 And first of all, no, I'm not I don't get personal. 0:12:55.920 --> 0:12:59.120 What do you gain that has proven everything in this league? 0:12:59.120 --> 0:12:59.480 Correct? 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.400 He's literally except from the ring. The ring is not 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:04.200 attainable anymore. It's not this year. 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:06.800 It's not attainable. You can't get the ring. So if 0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:08.160 you can't get the ring. 0:13:08.240 --> 0:13:11.160 Why would you subject your superstar players that are your 0:13:11.280 --> 0:13:14.600 largest assets on your team. Why would you subject them 0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:19.040 to any danger? You wouldn't. You absolutely wouldn't. If it 0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:21.720 was your kid, would you do it? Heck no, get 0:13:21.760 --> 0:13:23.320 your butt over here and sit down. 0:13:24.760 --> 0:13:28.560 For what? Like for what? I don't even know how. 0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:30.640 People can't even justify it in their mind that it's 0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:32.640 the same thing across this freeway. 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:33.680 You can get a billion dollars. 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:35.959 I'm getting across that freeway, hey, cross his fear of 0:13:35.960 --> 0:13:36.880 freeway is a dollar. 0:13:37.559 --> 0:13:37.800 Yeah. 0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:41.720 No, I'm probably not gonna. It's not worth it. It's 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:42.439 not worth it. 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:48.080 You gain nothing, if anything you lose, You could lose everything, right, 0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:52.760 you could absolutely if he gets hurt, Now, your chance 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:54.960 at that ring is you right? 0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:56.000 It off? For next year? Gone? 0:13:56.040 --> 0:13:56.839 In twenty twenty, it was. 0:13:56.920 --> 0:13:58.400 It's a gift that. 0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:01.080 You walked out of this previous game without any major injuries. Yes, 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:03.680 it is an absolute. It is a godsend that you 0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:06.160 walked out of that game without any injuries because they. 0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:08.800 Were coming after him, absolutely, not even just him. 0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:12.319 Everybody's right. Every game, every snap, you're subject to injury. 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:14.120 Yes, you can happen anywhere you. 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:16.240 Can non contact coach can say Kyle get in the game, 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:18.880 you could take your first stride and pop tear your achilles. 0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:21.160 If that's how that's how easy injuries can happen. 0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:24.800 Remember the Super Bowl San Francisco right off the right, 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:26.760 off the sideline that wasn't even in the game. 0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:28.840 Absolutely, so everybody can get hurt. 0:14:28.920 --> 0:14:35.400 So as an organization, as organization management, you have assets, right, 0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:37.840 you have fifty three assets over there that are your primaries. 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:39.600 You got other guys that are on practice squad as well. 0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:43.520 What are my most influential assets that I must protect? 0:14:43.960 --> 0:14:44.720 Dak Prescott. 0:14:44.800 --> 0:14:46.800 Dak Prescott is definitely at the top of the dog 0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:50.600 on totem pole right, ceedee lamb. Okay, then you got 0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:54.000 the you got the Quinn Williams, right, you got Tyler Smith. 0:14:54.280 --> 0:14:58.600 There's just certain guys. They're all teammates. Some are more 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:01.720 valuable than others. Cornerstone is what they like to say 0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:04.000 around here, right, Cornerstone pieces. 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:04.920 Certain guys you. 0:15:04.880 --> 0:15:08.440 Have to protect and they if they if they're like, okay, coach, 0:15:08.520 --> 0:15:10.680 I will sit down, then you probably don't want them 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:13.800 on your team. You want guys that are gonna push back. 0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:15.120 You want guys that want to be out there. You 0:15:15.160 --> 0:15:16.560 want them to be competitive, if you want them to 0:15:16.560 --> 0:15:18.920 say out to right things. Yes, yes, yes, those are 0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:24.000 all culture building influential things. But as an organization and 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:28.120 as management, I must manage you right to ensure that 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:30.880 you protect yourself from you And if you're not going 0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:31.800 to do it, I'll do it. 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:33.280 You're not going to do it, so I have to 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:34.440 do it for you. Sit down. 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:37.200 And it's been said on the path, like when Mike 0:15:37.320 --> 0:15:40.120 McCarthy was here, and just with Dak Prescott overall, people 0:15:40.200 --> 0:15:41.920 have talked about like, yeah, this is a guy who 0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:45.400 works so hard that sometimes we need to like tell 0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:47.280 him to calm down a little bit, like we need 0:15:47.320 --> 0:15:49.600 to at times rain him back in because he will 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:52.600 go the extra mile. And I think that if we're 0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:55.320 talking about culture here, that alone tells you you're in 0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:57.480 a good place. The fact that Dak Prescott has played 0:15:57.520 --> 0:15:59.800 these last two games tells you you're in a good place. 0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:03.960 Since this game there's no effect on the country change. 0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:06.440 It's not going to change anything about the culture. And 0:16:06.480 --> 0:16:10.200 the whole quitting thing, what are you quitting from there? 0:16:10.560 --> 0:16:12.880 They are not going to the playoffs. There is nothing 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:16.400 to play for, quote unquote, so you're not really quitting 0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:18.960 from anything. And then I saw somebody say, oh worry, 0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:21.960 you pay him sixty million dollars. That is exactly why 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.760 you sit him. That's exactly why you sit him, because, 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:26.520 like you said, Kyle, if you go in the next 0:16:26.560 --> 0:16:28.360 year with an injured Dak Prescott, you don't have him 0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:30.040 at training camp. You don't have him until what week 0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:32.680 five of the season or something. Forget about it. 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:35.080 It's not gonna happen. Forget about it. Forget it. 0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:38.680 The chat is backing us up in this regard here, 0:16:38.880 --> 0:16:40.960 I pretty heavily forget about it. 0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:42.680 And you're paying. 0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:45.400 Him sixty million dollars not to finish seventeen games. 0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:46.520 That's not what you paid him for. 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:48.960 You paid him to give give yourself a shot to 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:52.080 win championships. That's what you're paying Dak press stuff. 0:16:51.880 --> 0:16:53.840 For which is gone. Not here in twenty two, it's 0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:54.400 not happening. 0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:56.240 We'll do it in twenty twenty six, or try to 0:16:56.440 --> 0:16:57.320 in twenty twenty six. 0:16:57.320 --> 0:16:59.240 All right, when we come back, let's talk about the 0:16:59.240 --> 0:16:59.880 game a little bit. 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:00.680 Defence. 0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:02.920 There's showed some things in the back half of that 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.679 game that I thought was interesting, maybe even some guys 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:09.480 playing into contract spots which. 0:17:09.359 --> 0:17:10.919 Will outline some of those guys. 0:17:11.160 --> 0:17:14.480 And then the offense of course started hot and had 0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:18.080 a couple really impressive drives. Can they continue that momentum 0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:21.000 into twenty twenty six. We'll talk about that when we 0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:22.800 return with more talking Cowboys after this. 0:17:24.800 --> 0:17:28.359 Every day begins with a promise, a promise to work 0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:32.280 hard and to build a future.

It is? 0:22:12.040 --> 0:22:13.359 Uh Anyways, I just a. 0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:16.240 Quick shout to that predicted the come OUTSI turp a touchdown. 0:22:16.320 --> 0:22:18.680 Granted I said it was the fourth quarter, but the 0:22:18.720 --> 0:22:20.639 Dephense played like that was the fourth quarter. They just 0:22:20.680 --> 0:22:25.040 stopped playing after that. Then that's part of the problem 0:22:25.119 --> 0:22:25.680 for true. 0:22:25.800 --> 0:22:28.520 Yeah, looks great in the first half, did everything they 0:22:28.600 --> 0:22:31.080 wanted to and then had the big play eighty six 0:22:31.200 --> 0:22:33.160 yards and then after that it was what a throw 0:22:33.240 --> 0:22:37.200 by Dak though, what brilliant He missed a couple of those. 0:22:37.520 --> 0:22:39.359 He had a bad day. I mean, I arguably he 0:22:39.400 --> 0:22:40.000 had a bad day. 0:22:40.080 --> 0:22:41.840 Yeah, I think he I think you could con. 0:22:42.000 --> 0:22:43.520 And he threw for over three hundred yards, but that 0:22:43.720 --> 0:22:46.600 was like a poor performance and he said it as 0:22:46.640 --> 0:22:48.320 poor of a poor performance sys you will get from 0:22:48.400 --> 0:22:49.840 Dak in the year twenty twenty five. 0:22:49.920 --> 0:22:52.240 He mentioned it in the postgame press conference he said, 0:22:52.440 --> 0:22:54.520 I missed some throws. And he said the first one 0:22:54.600 --> 0:22:56.119 that I thought of when he said that was the 0:22:56.200 --> 0:22:59.800 CD Lamb throw where CD had two guys beat over 0:22:59.840 --> 0:23:02.639 the top by four yards each and. 0:23:03.359 --> 0:23:06.320 He underthrew it. He said, in the middle of the throw, 0:23:06.359 --> 0:23:07.879 I was already disappointed in myself. 0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:09.359 He knew he didn't leave enough on it. 0:23:09.800 --> 0:23:11.520 I was like, okay, So at least he knew, at 0:23:11.600 --> 0:23:13.879 least he saw, he sees it and he can improve upon. 0:23:13.760 --> 0:23:15.560 It, giving him fits. 0:23:15.640 --> 0:23:19.000 And something that Isaiah's alluded to this season is that 0:23:19.480 --> 0:23:22.560 Dak's ability to get deep ball out there. 0:23:22.760 --> 0:23:26.360 The velocity, the velocity, the zip velocity, no raptor. 0:23:29.320 --> 0:23:30.680 No, it's it's true. 0:23:30.920 --> 0:23:35.480 I hope I hope that they allow him to sit 0:23:36.320 --> 0:23:38.480 this NAS game and so that he can go on 0:23:38.640 --> 0:23:41.640 vacation and enjoy his family and then he can get 0:23:41.760 --> 0:23:45.840 back stronger because the velocity has not been there this season. 0:23:45.960 --> 0:23:46.520 It just hasn't. 0:23:46.600 --> 0:23:48.639 That's not indictment on him, it just is not it 0:23:48.800 --> 0:23:51.399 what it was, and understandably because he's coming off of 0:23:51.520 --> 0:23:56.080 a hamstring injury that would limit his ability to throw 0:23:56.280 --> 0:23:59.879 as strongly as ferociously as he once was able to. 0:24:00.040 --> 0:24:01.600 So he needs some time. He needs some time, so 0:24:01.840 --> 0:24:03.920 hopefully he's able to get some of that back. 0:24:04.320 --> 0:24:08.399 And you you know, as a passer when it's just 0:24:08.480 --> 0:24:10.520 not there, you know what I mean, Like you you 0:24:10.760 --> 0:24:12.960 know it's not there and that is a part of 0:24:13.000 --> 0:24:15.000 his game with these weapons. 0:24:15.000 --> 0:24:16.000 That he has to get back. 0:24:17.440 --> 0:24:17.760 Mhm. 0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:21.920 Yeah, he's not as much drive now as he is 0:24:22.560 --> 0:24:25.240 just kind of finesse and touch. I think we've seen 0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:27.000 that a lot with some of the crossers to CD 0:24:27.119 --> 0:24:30.359 and pickings this year. And then on his deep pens, 0:24:30.359 --> 0:24:33.240 he's not necessarily trying to, like you said, drive and 0:24:33.960 --> 0:24:36.040 put it one hundred miles an hour down field. He's trying. 0:24:36.119 --> 0:24:38.399 He's getting it up and letting guys run underneath it 0:24:39.040 --> 0:24:39.800 and with. 0:24:39.840 --> 0:24:44.120 At least to a lot of pass uh, defensives, interferences. 0:24:43.600 --> 0:24:45.560 And yeah, I know, if the ball is hanging up 0:24:45.560 --> 0:24:47.240 there in the year, that's a tough spot for DB's 0:24:47.320 --> 0:24:50.000 to be in. So to a degree, there there's an 0:24:50.000 --> 0:24:53.240 advantage to that. I don't know about you guys, but 0:24:53.720 --> 0:24:55.399 I think we saw some I think we saw some 0:24:55.520 --> 0:24:57.639 Marty ball from the younger shot and you think so 0:24:58.640 --> 0:25:02.800 on Thursday, there was time of possession just I mean, 0:25:03.359 --> 0:25:06.280 gru those first three drives felt like forever. 0:25:06.560 --> 0:25:07.160 It was awesome. 0:25:08.000 --> 0:25:11.119 Five minutes, eighteen seconds, seven and a half minutes, a 0:25:11.359 --> 0:25:14.439 quick drive with turpin. But I think they had four drives. 0:25:14.480 --> 0:25:18.560 It lasted longer than five minutes. It's pretty good, And 0:25:19.480 --> 0:25:21.520 I think the only thing that you get concerned about 0:25:21.720 --> 0:25:27.080 is number one still the defense and number two, why 0:25:27.160 --> 0:25:30.560 can't the offense continue to score points in the second half. 0:25:32.000 --> 0:25:34.359 I think in this game it was a mixture of 0:25:34.480 --> 0:25:38.200 penalties and Washington's pastors started to get home. Johnny Newton 0:25:38.240 --> 0:25:42.640 had an unbelievable game. Yeah, three sacks, right, he had 0:25:42.800 --> 0:25:45.160 I think two and a half. I think they counted 0:25:45.200 --> 0:25:50.479 won as a half sack. But they've worn down instead 0:25:50.520 --> 0:25:52.399 of wearing other teams down, which we've seen them do 0:25:52.480 --> 0:25:55.600 at points this year. And so is it just hey 0:25:55.600 --> 0:25:58.240 it's week seventeen, I don't know, but it's been going 0:25:58.280 --> 0:25:59.639 on for a couple of weeks now. So I think 0:25:59.720 --> 0:26:01.640 that's that would be what you're concerned about, and that's 0:26:01.640 --> 0:26:04.239 what you're looking to get, right, I see three here, 0:26:04.960 --> 0:26:06.159 you had three sacks? 0:26:06.440 --> 0:26:07.520 Three he had them? 0:26:07.560 --> 0:26:10.320 Now Newton did yeah, good for I mean, you had 0:26:10.320 --> 0:26:12.280 a great game. He did the whole defensive line had 0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:15.200 a great game. You really liked what you were seeing. 0:26:15.280 --> 0:26:17.240 I mean, as a cow was fan, you didn't like it. 0:26:17.400 --> 0:26:21.520 But them tightening up in the second half was alarming 0:26:21.600 --> 0:26:24.280 to me because the defense was starting to get I mean, 0:26:24.359 --> 0:26:26.639 the defense just wasn't great basically the whole game, right, 0:26:28.359 --> 0:26:30.920 and you kind of let him hang around for a while, 0:26:31.160 --> 0:26:33.280 and it was getting a real testy there, especially in 0:26:33.359 --> 0:26:35.120 the fourth and early in the fourth. 0:26:34.920 --> 0:26:38.840 You're like, you're kidding me, man, Like they're really gonna. 0:26:38.800 --> 0:26:41.040 It was right when Moody hit the twenty three yard 0:26:41.080 --> 0:26:41.760 or right before the. 0:26:41.840 --> 0:26:43.879 End of the third, yeah, and it was like, okay, 0:26:44.920 --> 0:26:48.119 now they're within striking distance. And that was where I 0:26:48.200 --> 0:26:49.760 didn't think the defense played poorly. 0:26:50.160 --> 0:26:53.239 I know they weren't perfect, but that was any other 0:26:53.320 --> 0:26:55.000 quarterback other than Josh Johnson. 0:26:54.800 --> 0:26:56.879 You would be And kind of where I was leading 0:26:57.080 --> 0:26:59.320 is it, did they play well? 0:26:59.560 --> 0:26:59.720 Now? 0:27:00.160 --> 0:27:01.080 Did they play great? 0:27:01.280 --> 0:27:01.320 No? 0:27:02.160 --> 0:27:04.840 Did they play what they needed to do against the 0:27:04.960 --> 0:27:08.119 bad offense and a team that struggled significantly on the 0:27:08.160 --> 0:27:10.399 offensive side, Yeah, I think they did. They gave up 0:27:10.440 --> 0:27:12.640 twenty three points in three hundred and twenty eight yards, 0:27:12.720 --> 0:27:16.199 like that's a normal game against offense. 0:27:16.720 --> 0:27:21.160 So so Josh Johnson led offense. Yeh, this tenth career 0:27:21.240 --> 0:27:24.600 start in the last nine he didn't a team that 0:27:24.680 --> 0:27:27.200 he started for did not score more than twenty one points. 0:27:27.680 --> 0:27:29.520 Okay, so maybe not as good of a boah. 0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:31.560 Well, it just wasn't good. It's a terrible day. 0:27:31.640 --> 0:27:34.040 He went fifteen to twenty three for a buck ninety 0:27:34.119 --> 0:27:36.240 eight and no touchdowns, no interceptions. 0:27:36.560 --> 0:27:39.560 I mean Johnson's stat line he looked incredibly. 0:27:40.280 --> 0:27:44.639 They gave up the chunk plays to Jacory krossky merrit 0:27:45.119 --> 0:27:46.560 like the seventy two yard touchdown. 0:27:46.560 --> 0:27:49.520 That's inexcusable. I shouldn't be able to do that. Outside 0:27:49.520 --> 0:27:50.520 of that, I thought it was okay. 0:27:50.800 --> 0:27:52.600 I mean, outside of that, they had a really good 0:27:53.280 --> 0:27:55.639 day against the run. Yeah, I mean that was one 0:27:55.640 --> 0:27:57.520 of the things that Washington thought they could lean on 0:27:57.600 --> 0:28:00.440 all day, and early on that pro proved not to 0:28:00.480 --> 0:28:02.480 be the factor for them. They had to air it 0:28:02.520 --> 0:28:05.160 out because and the unfortunate part is that they were 0:28:05.280 --> 0:28:08.119 able to start airing it out after a while. Beemer 0:28:08.240 --> 0:28:09.720 was telling me just before we started the show, is 0:28:09.760 --> 0:28:13.040 that forty percent, no sorry, twenty percent of all of 0:28:13.200 --> 0:28:15.960 Washington's plays were splash plays. 0:28:16.280 --> 0:28:17.719 So every four plays. 0:28:17.800 --> 0:28:18.400 Yeah, it's bad. 0:28:18.680 --> 0:28:19.760 They had a big play. 0:28:21.119 --> 0:28:24.960 One of every five plays. Yeah, it's twenty twenty three 0:28:25.080 --> 0:28:25.879 percent crazy. 0:28:26.040 --> 0:28:26.280 Wow. 0:28:26.880 --> 0:28:30.080 Yeah, that's pretty because even look at debo explosive places. 0:28:30.160 --> 0:28:32.719 Deebo had a forty one yarder and where he decided 0:28:32.800 --> 0:28:36.119 to destroy Donovan Wilson, Oh my god on the sideline, 0:28:36.440 --> 0:28:38.560 Cory Krossky Merritt had the seventy two yarder. 0:28:39.200 --> 0:28:40.840 Samuel had a twenty nine yard rush. 0:28:40.920 --> 0:28:42.080 What did that sound like in the press box? 0:28:42.120 --> 0:28:43.240 Do you guys like, what was that? 0:28:44.240 --> 0:28:44.440 Oh? 0:28:45.360 --> 0:28:46.880 He got worked? 0:28:47.040 --> 0:28:48.720 That was Was there any hearing in the press box? 0:28:49.600 --> 0:28:50.720 Not for me? That's good? 0:28:51.120 --> 0:28:51.920 Yeah, no, not for me. 0:28:52.400 --> 0:28:53.440 What about from Washington? 0:28:54.360 --> 0:28:56.760 I didn't hear anything. We had like the their pro 0:28:56.920 --> 0:28:59.640 folks that are stats like you are down from us 0:28:59.640 --> 0:29:01.800 and you can hear them like all right, twenty six 0:29:01.960 --> 0:29:03.040 run so and so on. 0:29:03.200 --> 0:29:04.480 So, so you just heard that the whole time. 0:29:04.480 --> 0:29:06.520 We're basically hearing that more or less the entire time. 0:29:07.120 --> 0:29:11.000 So your thoughts, Isaiah on the way that the Cowboys 0:29:11.120 --> 0:29:12.520 defense performed in that game. 0:29:13.360 --> 0:29:15.680 It wasn't great. It was more of the same, didn't 0:29:15.720 --> 0:29:17.120 matter where even fools was sitting. 0:29:17.680 --> 0:29:21.520 Pass rush is still Pepula pew secondary is still playing 0:29:21.600 --> 0:29:25.120 soft tackling wasn't great, it was more the same. 0:29:25.240 --> 0:29:27.880 I liked what we saw from One Guy Club forty 0:29:27.960 --> 0:29:29.800 two member Javian clown He's. 0:29:29.600 --> 0:29:31.719 Been consistent ever since he got his feet underneath him now, 0:29:31.760 --> 0:29:34.240 so I mean, Jdavian Clowney is a mercenary. He's a 0:29:34.320 --> 0:29:36.880 higher assassin, that's what he is. And he needed about 0:29:36.920 --> 0:29:38.800 three games to get it his feet on earthm It 0:29:38.880 --> 0:29:40.480 was good to hear him talk about, you know, how 0:29:40.720 --> 0:29:42.720 next year he's going to be playing, whether it's here 0:29:42.960 --> 0:29:44.440 or somewhere else, but he's going to be playing. 0:29:44.520 --> 0:29:46.120 Sign that dude, and that he wants to go. 0:29:46.160 --> 0:29:48.360 To training camp. That is something that you don't hear 0:29:48.400 --> 0:29:51.760 from veterans that have played for twelve years. So, you know, 0:29:51.880 --> 0:29:58.160 he seems to be a a sound player both on 0:29:58.400 --> 0:30:00.720 the field and in the locker room. Sounds to be 0:30:00.840 --> 0:30:04.000 a good addition to this team. I'm not sure of 0:30:04.120 --> 0:30:06.560 his locker room presidence, his effect in the meeting room. 0:30:06.720 --> 0:30:09.480 I can't speak to that, but he looks like somebody 0:30:09.480 --> 0:30:11.640 who just goes about his business exactly that. 0:30:11.760 --> 0:30:13.160 I was literally just about to say that he's a 0:30:13.200 --> 0:30:16.800 guy that handles his business the right way, and he's 0:30:16.840 --> 0:30:18.840 out there making plays. I mean, you're talking about a 0:30:18.880 --> 0:30:21.280 guy that almost ran down to Deo Samuel and made 0:30:21.320 --> 0:30:24.920 a sack what one or two plays later. Just a 0:30:25.120 --> 0:30:28.160 phenomenal player in the fact that you're getting him at 0:30:28.200 --> 0:30:31.360 such a value. Granted he has a bigger paycheck than most, 0:30:31.440 --> 0:30:33.280 but I mean, like the value that you're getting not 0:30:33.360 --> 0:30:36.320 only from his presence, but like you're saying, like his leadership, 0:30:36.400 --> 0:30:39.240 by performing, not necessarily by being vocal. 0:30:40.560 --> 0:30:43.440 Please sign him. That's a guy that you want on 0:30:43.560 --> 0:30:44.200 your squad. 0:30:44.320 --> 0:30:45.520 I really believe in Clowney. 0:30:45.920 --> 0:30:48.600 I mean as a veteran presence in that locker room, 0:30:48.840 --> 0:30:52.640 as somebody he stepped into the role that Dante Fowler 0:30:52.760 --> 0:30:56.000 Junior was expected to have, and he has not been 0:30:56.040 --> 0:30:58.840 good enough this year. I think Fowler has three sacks. 0:30:58.960 --> 0:31:00.960 Clowney's already at five and a half, and that's without 0:31:01.000 --> 0:31:04.200 a training camp, that's without an offseason, that's coming off 0:31:04.280 --> 0:31:06.400 the street and not playing in every game, and he's 0:31:06.440 --> 0:31:10.400 already been significantly better, nearly two times as productive as 0:31:10.520 --> 0:31:13.040 Dante Faller Junior. And that doesn't even count what he's 0:31:13.080 --> 0:31:16.160 done from a leadership standpoint, And from a veteran presence. 0:31:15.880 --> 0:31:17.960 In the low But Dante Fallower Junior also is a 0:31:18.040 --> 0:31:20.800 product of the scheme that he's in. He's one of 0:31:20.840 --> 0:31:23.000 those guys. He's not a plug and play guy. And 0:31:23.080 --> 0:31:26.200 in any scheme, there are certain defensive ends that we've 0:31:26.240 --> 0:31:28.400 talked about from other teams that you could put them 0:31:28.400 --> 0:31:30.400 into any system and they're going to be highly successful. 0:31:30.880 --> 0:31:33.120 Clowney is another one of those body types that you 0:31:33.160 --> 0:31:35.520 could put him into any system as a defensive end, 0:31:35.760 --> 0:31:37.560 regardless of what scheme you're playing, and he's going to 0:31:37.600 --> 0:31:41.480 be successful. Some defensive ends need to be placed in 0:31:41.560 --> 0:31:43.880 specific schemes in order to have a higher success rate. 0:31:44.160 --> 0:31:46.080 That's just a reality. And that's what I believe that 0:31:46.160 --> 0:31:48.560 Dante Faller Junior is. I don't think that he's not good. 0:31:49.000 --> 0:31:52.160 I just think that he needed a dan quinn Ish 0:31:52.680 --> 0:31:55.080 type system. And under dan Quinn, what do you have 0:31:55.240 --> 0:31:58.280 fifteen sacks whatever, thirteen something like that last year and 0:31:58.520 --> 0:32:00.400 you expect it because of the number. And this is 0:32:00.440 --> 0:32:02.760 when analytics don't always match up. People have to take 0:32:02.760 --> 0:32:05.840 it with a grain of salt because systems and schemes matter. 0:32:06.560 --> 0:32:10.080 Systems and schemes matter offensively and defensively, players can be 0:32:10.320 --> 0:32:13.520 amazing players and certain schemes in systems and then go 0:32:13.640 --> 0:32:16.840 to a completely different one in turn ghosts and people 0:32:16.920 --> 0:32:17.320 be like, Oh. 0:32:17.320 --> 0:32:19.000 That person is just not what they used to be. 0:32:19.120 --> 0:32:20.760 That's not true. That's not true. 0:32:20.800 --> 0:32:23.400 It's just that that person doesn't necessarily his their skill 0:32:23.480 --> 0:32:24.880 sets don't thrive in this setting. 0:32:25.080 --> 0:32:27.440 Let me ask you this, though, what about this scheme 0:32:27.520 --> 0:32:30.480 can be successful? What is it that needs to be successful? 0:32:30.480 --> 0:32:34.080 This scheme is a is a stop the run in 0:32:34.720 --> 0:32:37.160 bend but don't break type defense in the secondary. That's 0:32:37.200 --> 0:32:39.440 what this defense is. And in order to do that, 0:32:39.760 --> 0:32:42.320 you have to have safeties that can cover. You have 0:32:42.440 --> 0:32:44.840 to have corners that can cover. In our zone cover 0:32:45.640 --> 0:32:49.040 zone covers corners. Because there's different styles of corners out there. 0:32:49.080 --> 0:32:51.520 There's some corners that can do both. Some are specialists 0:32:51.520 --> 0:32:53.800 and a Manda man. Some are zone guys right where 0:32:53.840 --> 0:32:58.000 they just understand space, understand their body in space, and 0:32:58.080 --> 0:33:01.600 understand the responsibilities of other guys around them. And then 0:33:01.720 --> 0:33:03.600 defensively on the front seven, they have to be able 0:33:03.600 --> 0:33:06.240 to come up and tackle. That's what he wants, that's 0:33:06.280 --> 0:33:08.560 what he wants, and he doesn't have the personnel keeping 0:33:08.600 --> 0:33:10.800 everything in front of it. This is not the personnel 0:33:10.840 --> 0:33:12.239 to do it. I said this early in training him. 0:33:12.280 --> 0:33:14.320 I said, this is dan Quinn's personnel that he's working with. 0:33:14.960 --> 0:33:18.000 That's the reality. You did not have the time nor 0:33:18.600 --> 0:33:21.520 the equity to turn over the defensive roster the way 0:33:21.520 --> 0:33:22.720 in which eber Flues wanted to. 0:33:22.800 --> 0:33:23.320 So what did you do? 0:33:23.440 --> 0:33:25.880 You said, Okay, let's give him what we can give him. Right, 0:33:25.960 --> 0:33:27.280 let's make a couple. Let's make a trade of the 0:33:27.320 --> 0:33:29.959 defensive line position. He needs an interior defensive lineman. They 0:33:30.000 --> 0:33:31.680 did a good job of that, right, They got two 0:33:31.720 --> 0:33:33.840 guys in Quinn Williams was obviously a late addition, but 0:33:34.000 --> 0:33:36.640 Kenny Clark early on. That was huge, right. And then 0:33:36.800 --> 0:33:40.280 obviously the linebackers they tried, they tried. They swung and miss, 0:33:40.760 --> 0:33:41.440 but they tried. 0:33:41.640 --> 0:33:41.720 Right. 0:33:41.800 --> 0:33:44.280 They brought in with three different linebackers, So, I mean, 0:33:44.440 --> 0:33:46.400 so they tried to give him what he needed to 0:33:46.440 --> 0:33:49.800 be successful. But even when you started being successful against 0:33:49.840 --> 0:33:51.960 the run, least didn't have the secondary that you needed. 0:33:52.040 --> 0:33:53.400 You don't have the guys out there, you don't have 0:33:53.560 --> 0:33:57.240 the coverage safeties, you don't have the zone coverage corners. 0:33:57.760 --> 0:34:01.040 We've talked about that extensively throughout the year. This entire 0:34:01.160 --> 0:34:05.600 secondary could use an overhaul or just being healthy in 0:34:06.600 --> 0:34:10.399 its entirety. Guys like Level and Carson and Bland adds 0:34:10.440 --> 0:34:13.880 some guys to that group and make sure that they're healthy, 0:34:13.960 --> 0:34:16.160 then I think you're at least headed in the right direction. 0:34:16.320 --> 0:34:20.160 I don't think they foresaw the issues with trademone. I 0:34:20.200 --> 0:34:22.520 don't think they foresaw obviously the injury to Bland. 0:34:22.719 --> 0:34:23.840 I don't think they. I thought they. 0:34:24.080 --> 0:34:27.280 I believe that they over were overzealous in their ability 0:34:27.360 --> 0:34:29.360 to rehab revel. 0:34:29.680 --> 0:34:30.520 I think they were so. 0:34:30.640 --> 0:34:33.120 I think they they swung they were they were had 0:34:33.160 --> 0:34:35.360 some hopium. Yeah, in terms of the secondary, they had 0:34:35.400 --> 0:34:37.600 some hopium. In terms of the trade acquisitions at the 0:34:37.640 --> 0:34:39.680 linebacker level, they had a lot of hope, right, But 0:34:39.719 --> 0:34:42.759 they didn't have anything that was that was pertinent and evident, right, 0:34:42.800 --> 0:34:44.439 They didn't. They didn't have that stuff that was sound 0:34:44.640 --> 0:34:47.480 going into training camp or coming out of training. 0:34:47.600 --> 0:34:50.480 The only things that was that were sound were the 0:34:50.600 --> 0:34:52.400 things that they had to pay a high dollar for 0:34:52.800 --> 0:34:53.640 in trade capital. 0:34:53.719 --> 0:34:56.719 It's Kenny Clark and Quinn Williams. Those are sure. Thanks, 0:34:57.120 --> 0:34:58.560 you knew those were going to be sure. 0:34:58.640 --> 0:35:00.719 Thanks for sure, and you also knew giving away Michael 0:35:00.719 --> 0:35:02.560 Parsons was going to be a sure thing in the negative, 0:35:03.000 --> 0:35:04.560 so it was going to change. 0:35:04.840 --> 0:35:06.600 But they changed it in one spot, weren't able to 0:35:06.640 --> 0:35:07.399 do that in the other two. 0:35:07.600 --> 0:35:09.080 In the train camp, you could have argued that you 0:35:09.320 --> 0:35:12.640 had the defensive end depth because they were playing so well. 0:35:13.480 --> 0:35:15.959 But now hindsight looking at it, it's like you didn't 0:35:15.960 --> 0:35:18.600 have the tackles that were able to put up a 0:35:18.680 --> 0:35:21.400 fight against the defensive ends. So it looked like you 0:35:21.520 --> 0:35:23.919 had great Greek defensive end depth and that just didn't happen. 0:35:24.000 --> 0:35:26.920 You had you had death because you had Michael Parsons, 0:35:27.320 --> 0:35:27.560 that was. 0:35:27.600 --> 0:35:29.640 Your depth, but he didn't play in the training camp. 0:35:29.680 --> 0:35:31.239 It doesn't matter. When he is on the field, he 0:35:31.320 --> 0:35:33.480 makes everybody around him better. There was there, There was 0:35:33.680 --> 0:35:35.319 I see what you're saying, and that's and I think 0:35:35.360 --> 0:35:37.399 that they made. They made the move thinking Okay, we've 0:35:37.440 --> 0:35:40.040 got guys here that we can trust, and it just 0:35:40.320 --> 0:35:42.960 was not a great bus. Wasn't the right decision? Yeah, 0:35:43.000 --> 0:35:44.360 that they haven't been able. 0:35:44.160 --> 0:35:44.759 To do that this year. 0:35:44.760 --> 0:35:45.680 What wasn't the right decision? 0:35:46.800 --> 0:35:48.760 Thinking that they had enough in the past Rush department 0:35:49.120 --> 0:35:51.840 and they they did not. They they haven't had it 0:35:51.880 --> 0:35:54.319 all year. I mean, when your league, when your team 0:35:54.480 --> 0:35:56.319 leaders in sex or a guy that you picked up 0:35:56.800 --> 0:35:59.200 the day training camp started, James and the guy that 0:35:59.280 --> 0:36:01.920 you picked up with seven games left, Yeah, that's just 0:36:02.040 --> 0:36:03.520 not that's not good at all. 0:36:03.800 --> 0:36:05.880 That's that you just can't have that. I mean, you 0:36:05.960 --> 0:36:07.160 have but understand this. 0:36:07.560 --> 0:36:11.600 And again, I believe that they acquired Matt Eberflus with 0:36:11.760 --> 0:36:14.200 understanding that they have to give him a two year runway. 0:36:15.000 --> 0:36:17.520 Whether they stick to that or not, we'll see, but 0:36:17.600 --> 0:36:20.840 I believe that they had that it was unrealistic to 0:36:20.960 --> 0:36:21.520 bring him in. 0:36:21.800 --> 0:36:21.920 Now. 0:36:21.960 --> 0:36:24.520 Nobody expected him expected the defense to be this bad. 0:36:24.640 --> 0:36:26.640 I think everybody was hopeful of it being middle of 0:36:26.680 --> 0:36:28.480 the road defense and lights out offense. 0:36:28.520 --> 0:36:30.320 That was if anybody thought this was going to be 0:36:30.360 --> 0:36:32.640 a historically bad defense, I'd. 0:36:32.440 --> 0:36:33.080 Like to see that. 0:36:33.760 --> 0:36:35.799 The expectation was that they'd be middle of the road right, 0:36:35.880 --> 0:36:39.160 fifteen to twenty anywhere between that. Right, you could and 0:36:39.200 --> 0:36:40.640 you could have lived with that, right, but bottom of 0:36:40.680 --> 0:36:42.560 the league is that's a whole nother conversation. Right, that 0:36:42.680 --> 0:36:45.200 derails the plans that you had set forth. But they 0:36:45.360 --> 0:36:47.919 tried to give him what he needed, right. You could 0:36:47.920 --> 0:36:50.000 tell that he communicated clearly, this is what I needed 0:36:50.120 --> 0:36:52.000 order to be successful, and they tried to give him that. 0:36:52.440 --> 0:36:54.240 But the reality is there's only. 0:36:54.120 --> 0:36:56.200 So much And you've heard Jerry say this through through 0:36:56.320 --> 0:36:58.200 training camp, right, Double J said it many times. There's 0:36:58.200 --> 0:37:00.680 only so many pieces of the cake, mauh. There's so 0:37:00.719 --> 0:37:02.480 many pieces of the pie that can go around. So 0:37:02.560 --> 0:37:06.800 when you start paying high dollar for certain individuals, I 0:37:06.880 --> 0:37:10.000 can't have a solid team. He made this evidently clear 0:37:10.560 --> 0:37:12.560 in training camp. That doesn't mean that you have to 0:37:12.719 --> 0:37:15.520 like it, but he was very clear, if I'm paying 0:37:15.640 --> 0:37:18.520 high dollar at all these different positions, there's not enough 0:37:18.600 --> 0:37:21.360 to go around. I can't build a team, right. I 0:37:21.400 --> 0:37:25.239 can have exceptional areas, but I can't have a solid team. 0:37:25.680 --> 0:37:28.160 And that is just the reality. That is pure analytics 0:37:28.239 --> 0:37:31.920 as this economics. Unless you are one team in your division, 0:37:32.120 --> 0:37:35.240 they figure it out, right. But again, you saw Dallas 0:37:35.360 --> 0:37:37.520 be more aggressive this year than they have ever been 0:37:37.920 --> 0:37:39.400 in terms of acquisitions. 0:37:39.520 --> 0:37:43.080 Yep. And the hope is that they continue that. 0:37:43.680 --> 0:37:45.440 The hope is that they continue that, right, But you 0:37:45.640 --> 0:37:47.800 have to when you start talking about these coordinators, you 0:37:47.920 --> 0:37:49.040 have to give them what they need. 0:37:49.160 --> 0:37:49.600 What they need. 0:37:49.840 --> 0:37:52.160 I don't believe that Eberflu's had what he needed in 0:37:52.320 --> 0:37:55.520 order to be fully successful with him his scheme, But 0:37:55.640 --> 0:37:56.719 you just didn't expect. 0:37:56.440 --> 0:37:57.239 It to be that bad. 0:37:58.080 --> 0:37:59.680 At the same time, though, I think there have been 0:37:59.680 --> 0:38:01.000 points and this year and I know we got to 0:38:01.040 --> 0:38:03.719 get to our break. But yeah, when I look on 0:38:03.760 --> 0:38:06.320 the field on Thursday and I see Donovan Wilson playing 0:38:06.480 --> 0:38:07.280 single high. 0:38:07.160 --> 0:38:08.680 Yes, stupid? What are we doing? 0:38:09.080 --> 0:38:10.160 That was the play war that was one of the 0:38:10.200 --> 0:38:12.759 exposive players where Deebo catches it, Wilson is like five 0:38:12.840 --> 0:38:16.280 yards behind him and what's going off here? So there 0:38:16.320 --> 0:38:19.160 have been some disage short situations. I think there's blame 0:38:19.239 --> 0:38:21.800 to go all around, of course, but I do agree 0:38:21.880 --> 0:38:24.480 that the biggest swing and misses I think, and what's 0:38:24.520 --> 0:38:26.680 hurt him the most is that linebacker spot. And they 0:38:26.760 --> 0:38:28.080 tried to fix it in the middle of the year 0:38:28.080 --> 0:38:28.800 with Logan Wilson. 0:38:28.840 --> 0:38:29.600 It just hasn't worked. 0:38:29.640 --> 0:38:31.160 No, for sure, I don't think he's got the same 0:38:31.400 --> 0:38:32.839 juice that he did from a couple of years ago. 0:38:32.920 --> 0:38:34.040 He's seen it a couple of times where he just 0:38:34.120 --> 0:38:35.040 gets straight. 0:38:34.800 --> 0:38:36.360 Up beat, but he didn't have any snaps. 0:38:36.480 --> 0:38:38.960 But also again speaking to the safety positions as we 0:38:39.239 --> 0:38:41.920 get ready to go ahead break personnel that's not the 0:38:41.960 --> 0:38:44.120 personnel he likes. You know what I'm saying that you 0:38:44.200 --> 0:38:46.839 have a room full of strong safeties. You have one 0:38:46.880 --> 0:38:50.040 free safety by trade, yep, one, and he's older. 0:38:50.360 --> 0:38:50.520 Yep. 0:38:51.560 --> 0:38:55.319 Right, Malik Hookers, you're one free safety. Everybody else's strong safeties. Yeah, down, 0:38:55.520 --> 0:38:59.320 body yells as strong safeties. Why because dan Quinn's system 0:38:59.600 --> 0:39:01.400 had linebackers as safeties. 0:39:02.239 --> 0:39:05.319 Right. Heat seeking missiles that play near the line of scrimingbacker. Yeah, 0:39:05.320 --> 0:39:05.839 that's what I'm saying. 0:39:05.880 --> 0:39:09.560 Heat seeking missiles that play sad labeled as safeties, play linebacker. 0:39:09.800 --> 0:39:10.560 Put them in the box. 0:39:10.920 --> 0:39:12.520 We got to go to break when we come back. 0:39:12.560 --> 0:39:14.799 We've got some smelly stickers, believe it or not, after 0:39:14.880 --> 0:39:16.799 a game that the Cowboys did win, but. 0:39:16.880 --> 0:39:19.320 We are still frustrated to a certain extent.
