Speaker 2: I'm doing well. Thank you for asking. Practice was good,

27
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 2: and you know what disorder, we weren't able to, you know,

28
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: do as much physical stuff, but it was a lot

29
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 2: of time on task, you know, a lot of just

30
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 2: understanding the game plan and understanding that there may be

31
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 2: some carry over from you know, their last just making

32
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 2: sure we're on our keys and stuff. But the general

33
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 2: energy and the business been good.

34
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: What did you see when you went back and you

35
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: look back at the tape against the Ravens?

36
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: I mean just missed opportunities. I mean we had some

37
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 2: a couple of penalties at times that really just killed us,

38
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 2: really put us out of position to do what we

39
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: wanted to do. From me included in some situations, and

40
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 2: then just just having to take advantage had we got

41
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 2: to move the ball on the ground. I feel like

42
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 2: that's a big one for us. It's just with a

43
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 2: ball on the ground and just not playing our best

44
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 2: ball too late, really starting faster, just being at our

45
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 2: key faster, and I feel like, you know, that would

46
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,959
Speaker 2: just help us out, you know in the long run,

47
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 2: just really starting fast.

48
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: You mentioned it's a short week and this is the

49
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: first time the Dallas Cow has ever played on the

50
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: road in a short week like this. Uh for a

51
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 1: player trying to recover, for you, an offensive lineman who

52
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: takes a pounding every snap, what's been important to you

53
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: to make sure you guys are ready to go on Thursday.

54
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 2: I mean just definitely, you know, listening to the body,

55
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 2: getting the good nice rest, hot, hot tug, cold tub,

56
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 2: you know, stem like a You know, anything I could

57
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,119
Speaker 2: do in terms of modality is just to make sure,

58
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: you know, I can get my body back as quick

59
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,519
Speaker 2: as possible. You know, after a physical game.

60
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: Do you guys think your offense has really hit its

61
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: stride yet where you're playing to the same level you

62
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 1: did when you were at your peak last year?

63
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 2: Uh? No, No, I think that's evident by everybody. I mean,

64
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 2: we have. I think we're doing things well in a

65
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 2: passing game right now, you know, because we has dropped

66
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 2: my back so when times. But I definitely think there's

67
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 2: a lot to be desired and just you know, at

68
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 2: all three phases, uh, offensive, defense, and special teams. Right now,

69
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 2: I definitely don't think we're shooting at the full clip yet,

70
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 2: but things are coming along and you know, I think

71
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 2: things will get better. Is just our job to make

72
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 2: sure sooner than later.

73
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: You mentioned the past game an offensive lineman, Tyler, they

74
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 1: take pride in running the football, and I'm sure you'd

75
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: like to run the football a little bit better than

76
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: you have these first three weeks as a line What

77
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: can you guys do better to try to get that

78
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 1: run game going a little bit?

79
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: I mean just picking up, you know, picking up movement

80
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: on the in the run game, like whether it be

81
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 2: d lin linebackers, picking up blitzes, and just making sure

82
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: that you know we're on our keys for every opportunity

83
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 2: they'll missus. Simon's no mental errors and stuff like that.

84
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: Absolutely, And then you've moved the ball pretty well, but

85
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: I'm sure you're kicking a few too many field goals

86
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: once you get on the other side of the field.

87
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: And look, Brandon Alby's a great weapon to have, right

88
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: you can kick him from Sixtyes, he's great, but what

89
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: can you guys do better to try to do better

90
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: in more of those condensed areas in the field, to

91
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: try to get in the end zone a little bit more.

92
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 2: I mean, definitely taking advantage of good field position like

93
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 2: when we have it, especially on turnovers. And then just

94
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 2: finishing in the red zone, you know, once we get

95
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: past the fifty, once we're pushing into the red zone,

96
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 2: really just playing our best ball, making sure that you know,

97
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 2: we're on our keys physically, so now there's no penalties.

98
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 2: Just making sure that you know we're doing all we

99
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 2: need to do in order to be successful, you know,

100
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 2: no penalties, no mental errors, just playing good ball. I

101
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 2: feel like, you know, it's such a simple answer. It's

102
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 2: maybe a complex problem, but that's really what it is,

103
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 2: just playing good ball, being on your fundamentals, being.

104
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: On your sign A lot of people from the outside

105
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: looking in Tyler have I think impressions of what Dak

106
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: Prescott is as a guy and a player from someone

107
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: that's in the locker room, in the huddle with him

108
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: every day. What makes Dak Prescott a special quarterback?

109
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: I mean he's just a great leader, a great dude

110
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 2: all around, I mean he's really he owns this. He

111
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 2: owns everything we do in the building. You know, he

112
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 2: stays late, you know, making sure that the game plans

113
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 2: where it needs to be. He encouraged just us, you

114
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 2: know whatever, there's a mental air, you know, whatever's in

115
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 2: this block or you know, whatever, whatever the case may be.

116
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 2: He's always constantly you know, lifting us up, uplifting us.

117
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 2: Make sure that you know, we understand that, you know,

118
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 2: we are elite and the standard is to be elite

119
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 2: and so never accepting anything less. And I think he

120
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 2: really carries that mantra as a person. I think you know,

121
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 2: he goes about his processing an elite way. Uh, he

122
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 2: comes in to work when an elite mindset and just

123
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 2: like he really gets he gets what's important.

124
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 1: How about ceedee lamb uh? What does it do for

125
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: an offense to have a guy like that that, you know,

126
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: going into every game the opposing defensive coordinator is taking

127
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: a big red sharpion, he's circling that name. How does

128
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: that help an offense when you know you have a

129
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:42,840
Speaker 1: guy that's gonna gounder that much attention.

130
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 2: I mean, you got a guy who can you know,

131
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 2: flip field position in one play I mean, he's just

132
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 2: he's so explosively, so good at what he does. It's

133
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 2: definitely just a huge hulp for our offense in terms

134
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 2: of just being able to move the ball around, you know,

135
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 2: you know, whether it's running, passing, you know all that stuff,

136
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 2: and just you know, being able to make sure that

137
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 2: you know, we're meeting the percentages and all this stuff.

138
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 2: And he's just he's such a tun of a guy.

139
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 2: Like it's truly, you know, I'm gonna be here all

140
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 2: day talking about how Gray ced is, but you know,

141
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 2: he's just such a great part to have on the

142
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 2: team in terms of his ability to make plays.

143
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: You're playing between two rookies and Tyler Getting and Cooper Bebee,

144
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: and from what I've been able to tell watching the tape,

145
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: they've played pretty well. Tyler. How quickly have those guys

146
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 1: come along in taking on such a big responsibility in

147
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 1: their rookie years.

148
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 2: I mean, I think they've done phenomenal, And like you said,

149
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,559
Speaker 2: you know, they came in quick. They came in ready

150
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 2: to go really far ahead of the curve in terms

151
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 2: of just like their mindset, in terms of just understanding

152
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 2: that you know, we have to move with urgency, in

153
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 2: terms of them plugging in and just playing. So you know,

154
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: they're extremely talented guys and they're only just getting started.

155
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 2: So I think the future is extremely bright for them.

156
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: When you got there, you kind of had Tyron Smith

157
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 1: that you played next to, and he kind of helped

158
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 1: you along. I would imagine how much have you been

159
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 1: able to help these guys the way Tyron helped you

160
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 1: when you came in and you had the play so

161
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: early as a rookie.

162
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 2: I mean, you know I've done I've done my best

163
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 2: to just you know, try to get them to understand

164
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 2: that you know, there's no need to panic to you know,

165
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 2: understand your assignment. Make sure you know we're communicating well

166
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 2: because you know, I understand bullets flying. They got a

167
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 2: lot on their place. Is their first time doing a

168
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 2: lot of stuff. So just doing the best I can

169
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 2: the better and to make sure you know their minds

170
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 2: are calm and that we're on task.

171
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 1: Final couple questions, just on the Giants. I get to

172
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: watch Dexter Lawrence every week play football. It's a lot

173
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: of fun, the same way you guys get to watch

174
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons. They're just good defensive players. I got to

175
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: ask one of the guys that has to block him,

176
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: what is it like trying to block a guy that

177
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: is that big but can also move the way Dexter

178
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: Lawrence does.

179
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 2: I mean, you just got to be on your keys,

180
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 2: and you know, like you said, he's extremely talented. You know,

181
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 2: great player, want the best to probably do it. But

182
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 2: you know, just being on your keys, you know, understanding

183
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 2: where he is and how can you affect the game,

184
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 2: and just doing your best to like limit his influence

185
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 2: the biggest thing. And it really just starts with fundamentals

186
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 2: and technique and I thinking nothing out of the ordinary.

187
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: Final two questions, just generically, when you look at the

188
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: Giants defense on tape, what do you.

189
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 2: Say, I mean, obviously I think of glaring things their

190
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 2: defensive line. You know, they got two athletic, pretty talented ends,

191
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 2: and then Dexter Lawrence. I mean, he's he's part of

192
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 2: what they do. A lot of what they do defensively

193
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: is to make sure that you know, he can come

194
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 2: in there and work. So just making sure that you know,

195
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 2: we're trying to limit his influence and just being on

196
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 2: top of that, and then uh, you know, their their

197
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 2: backers fire. You know, they do a lot of good stuff.

198
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 2: So it's being on our keys for real, all right.

199
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: Then, final question, Giants played Game three much differently than

200
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: they played Games one and two. On defense. They played

201
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: a lot more man and they blitzed a lot more.

202
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: What was your reaction when you saw how much different

203
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 1: they looked in terms of their aggressive approach in week

204
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: three compared to those first two weeks.

205
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 2: I mean, I thought it was interesting. I mean, it's

206
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 2: when you really look at it, I mean, it's kind

207
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 2: of kind of their thing and I expect got to

208
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 2: be carried over into this week, but it was just,

209
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:03,959
Speaker 2: h you know, a big thing is just being in

210
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 2: our keys. Like I'm gonna notice, like the Cleveland offensive

211
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 2: line at times, I'm not really sure what they talking

212
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 2: about or what their rules are, but they just kind

213
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 2: of look like they weren't on the same page at times.

214
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 2: The big amssists for us, it is definitely just being

215
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 2: on the same page. Make sure we're working in unison. Yeah,

216
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 2: you got a couple of the stuff that we're doing this.

217
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, it looked like they were all to

218
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: take advantage of week through. What you guys did in

219
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: week one when you guys played the Browns. How are

Speaker 1: well the Draft Show on Dallascowboys dot com. Frequent guests

239
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: of the show Brian. First time we're getting a Thursday

240
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 1: night football version of Giants and Cowboys here, and I

241
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: think I read today first time the Cowboys have actually

242
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 1: played on a short week on the road on a

243
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:33,319
Speaker 1: Thursday night. How about that.

244
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 4: It's amazing, John, and it's great to be with you

245
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 4: and all your listeners as well. Yeah, it's kind of

246
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 4: unusual for the Cowboys to be doing this again, as

247
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 4: you just said, stated never before, so you know, might

248
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 4: be catching the Cowboys at the right time. And I

249
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 4: know a lot of people in the matchup leading up

250
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 4: to this game are thinking, well, it's the same old giants,

251
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 4: And I'm here to tell everybody it's not the same

252
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 4: old giants playing football.

253
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 2: Now.

254
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 4: There's there's better skill the defensive players you're going to

255
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 4: have to deal with. This is going to be a

256
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 4: very difficult matchup for the Cowboys because the Giants can

257
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 4: do some things that the Cowboys have proven the last

258
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 4: couple of weeks that they don't handle very well. I

259
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 4: look for this to be a very, very very close

260
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 4: game and a very good game.

261
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think it could be a high scoring

262
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 1: game too, Brian, based on how these two teams have

263
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: looked over the first couple of games. You mentioned some

264
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 1: things the Cowboys have not done well before we get

265
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: to that. Injury wise, who should we expect to be

266
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: on the field for Dallas you think on Thursday night

267
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: and who might be out.

268
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 4: Well, there's only really the real big question for the

269
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 4: Cowboys is about with with Carson the corner he is

270
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 4: dealing with the shoulder injury. It's a shoulder bruise. You

271
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 4: know they're going to take this thing right up until

272
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 4: game time, you know. So if that's the case, if

273
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 4: he doesn't play, then they're kind of a little bit

274
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 4: of scramble mode. You know. Booth has been inactive every week,

275
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 4: mckwalmuh has played, He's played a lot of special team.

276
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 4: So Dallas will be in a little bit of a

277
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 4: spot if Carson doesn't isn't able to go John you

278
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 4: know on Thursday night. But the indications are that you know,

279
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 4: he's making progress, we'll see the bruise all that. It

280
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 4: is legitimately a game time decision.

281
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: There will they travel digs with neighbors if that's the case.

282
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 4: The problem that they run into when they travel is

283
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 4: that the minute that neighbors decides he goes from one

284
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 4: side of the field to the other, then everybody's assignment changes.

285
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 4: And I don't know, if Dallas is really interested in

286
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 4: doing that, that's with a veteran group. If Bland was

287
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 4: playing in this football game, I would say that there's

288
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 4: a good chance that maybe you would see some travel

289
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 4: just because of the veteran aspect of it. You get

290
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 4: veteran safeties and stuff. But with the rookie corner with

291
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 4: person in there, I don't think they would want to

292
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 4: do that, So, you know, I say that now, but

293
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 4: you never know. On a short week it might be

294
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 4: troublesome as well, you know, with having to deal with

295
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 4: all the assignments. But the minute that that receiver crosses

296
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 4: the center box, now everybody's assignment changes, and so can

297
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 4: you handle those changes. I don't know if necessarily that

298
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 4: they want to do that in a short week. So

299
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 4: I think you're gonna see Mike Zimber. He plays a

300
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 4: lot of zone. Uh, he's playing a lot of too

301
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 4: deep now because of you know, like he just does

302
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 4: not want to give up the big play. But they're

303
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 4: getting gashed on the run, so they're gonna have to

304
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 4: figure out some things in that regard as well. But

305
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 4: I don't think there'll be any traveling in this game.

306
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll next question now yeah, yeah, I'll make my

307
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 1: next question as a sync as possible. Then, what the

308
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: heck's going on with the run defense?

309
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 4: Yeah? Really, you know, it's not all about the defensive tackles.

310
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 4: And there's been a lot of talk about how poorly

311
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 4: that the defense has played. And you know a lot

312
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 4: of people are saying, well, they didn't do anything a

313
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 4: defensive tackle, and well they really wanted to try and

314
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 4: figure some things out. You know, they drafted Mazzie Smith,

315
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 4: and you and I have talked much about Mazzie Smith.

316
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 4: You and I talked about him on on on your

317
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 4: podcast and stuff, you know, leading up to the draft.

318
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 4: And you know, Mazzi has not lived up to the

319
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,079
Speaker 4: billing that he was drafted for. And so he played

320
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 4: better last week. He was more active, he played more square,

321
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 4: he played with more power. You know, the Giants will

322
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 4: probably get a little bit better version of him. We'll

323
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 4: see what happens inside with with running and Smith's and others.

324
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 4: You know, if they can, you know, if Mozzie can

325
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 4: maybe take advantage of the situations that he have, I

326
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 4: think it's going to be a good battle inside a

327
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 4: matter of fact, on both sides of the ball. I

328
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 4: mean with Cooper Bebe as well. He's going to have

329
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 4: his hands full with the Giants, and you know what

330
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 4: we've seen from them. So it's but yeah, the run

331
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 4: game of the run defense, they've had a problem with

332
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 4: dealing with the quarterball. Let's be honest. You know, when

333
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 4: you deal with Lamar Jackson, you deal with the quarterback run.

334
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 4: The game against the Saints, the loss against the Saints,

335
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 4: I felt like watching that tape. It was a beat

336
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 4: down in epic proportions. The Ravens game, to me, was

337
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 4: more of a some self inflicted stuff when you start

338
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 4: to talk about fits, finish, tackling, positioning, a lot of things.

339
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 4: There were a lot of players where it was three

340
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 4: our games and then there were some that were just

341
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 4: bust out the gate plays. The problem the Cowboys are

342
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 4: going to deal with with Singletary is he breaks tackles.

343
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 4: He is a very good breaker of tackles. And so

344
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 4: if they don't tackle well in this game, and they

345
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 4: don't deal with Jones well and the run option stuff

346
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 4: that they can do, they Dallas could once again have

347
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 4: a lot of problems teams. Teams just don't throw the

348
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 4: ball on them. I mean, it's over fifty percent now

349
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 4: that teams have just run the football on Dallas. Dallas

350
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 4: wants to get you in a situation like they got

351
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 4: Cleveland in where all of a sudden the scorer's kind

352
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 4: of into the favor of the Cowboys and then they

353
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 4: could stick that pass rush on you when they have

354
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 4: to sit here and play run defense. It's been a problem.

355
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 4: Like I say, the fits, the finish, the positioning, There's

356
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 4: a lot of things going on with this Cowboys run

357
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 4: defense that clearly the Giants can take advantage of.

358
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: Not just the run defense, of the defense overall. Brian

359
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: last one on that side of the ball. How much

360
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: of this is just trying to figure out how to

361
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: execute Mike Zimmer's defense, if you know, is not the

362
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: simplest defense in the world. It's very different than what

363
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: dan Quinn asked them to do last year. Is this

364
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: going to get better just by playing more in his

365
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: system or are there more fundamental issues here?

366
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 4: I think there's some. I think there's you know, people

367
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 4: will say and Mike and I are really good friends.

368
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 4: Mike and I go back to the early two thousands

369
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 4: when I was in the scouting department with the Cowboys,

370
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 4: and you know, every time everyone talked to Mike. Mike

371
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 4: is a hey, bring me whoever you want. I'll coach

372
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 4: him up. Guy. He's not big on you know, he's

373
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 4: not big on Oh, I've got to have this. I've

374
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 4: got to have this. There's certain parameters and things that

375
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 4: he would like with his players. But Mike is a

376
00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 4: give me the guys, I'll coach him up kind of

377
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 4: a guy. So I don't think it's anything to do

378
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 4: with the personel that he had. I think Mike likes

379
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 4: his guys. The problem is they they are They're not

380
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:14,199
Speaker 4: playing very well when it comes to the fundamentals of it,

381
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 4: gap control, tackling these things that we just talked about.

382
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 4: They the strength of this defense, in my opinion, will

383
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 4: be the linebackers. You know, it will be the Eric

384
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 4: Kendricks and over shown and guys like that. When those

385
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,199
Speaker 4: guys miss tackles, they're in a bad state. And they

386
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 4: missed a lot of them against the Ravens last week.

387
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 4: So Mike is you know, Mike will work with whoever

388
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 4: he has. He's not going to use it as an excuse.

389
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 4: You know, they've got guys in place that have played

390
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 4: this scheme before. You know, Menville Joseph has played in

391
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 4: the scheme. You know, Eric Hendricks has played in the scheme.

392
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 4: You know, it's just a matter of them going out

393
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,640
Speaker 4: and it's gonna sound really clicheic as heck, but it's

394
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,679
Speaker 4: really going out and just playing better football when it

395
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 4: comes to the fundamentals of what Mike's asking.

396
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 5: Them to do.

397
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 1: We haven't quite seen Ceedee Lamb blow up yet, Brian.

398
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:03,880
Speaker 1: Is this a matter of the fact that he wasn't

399
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: there all summer? He came in Ladies still working into

400
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 1: it as his other teams just putting so many guys

401
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,679
Speaker 1: on him so that he can't get going, or is

402
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: it something else?

403
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 4: Dallas doesn't run the ball at all, and the last

404
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,680
Speaker 4: two weeks they've been behind in games. You know, I

405
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 4: went on a crusade after the Cleveland game and I'm

406
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 4: like thinking, Dallas missed an opportunity to work on the

407
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 4: running game against Cleveland in the second half. You know,

408
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 4: they had game in hand, they had quarterback in hand.

409
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,439
Speaker 4: Cleveland wasn't coming back in this football game. So all

410
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 4: of a sudden, my thought was, well, why didn't you

411
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 4: take the opportunity to work on your running game? Why

412
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:47,400
Speaker 4: didn't you just load up, Rico Daddle, load up, Ezekiel Elliott,

413
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,400
Speaker 4: Duce Bond, load up, and just see if you could

414
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 4: run the ball. You know, and you know from last

415
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 4: week playing against Cleveland. Cleveland will not give you a

416
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 4: lot of room to run. They're a very physical team.

417
00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 4: But you kind of figure out who you are that way,

418
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 4: you can kind of figure out, like, we need to

419
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 4: do better. You know, our combo blocks are not working.

420
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 4: We need more pin and pull, We need more of

421
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 4: zone schemes, we need you know, you figured these things out.

422
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 1: Now.

423
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 4: The excuse is, well, we haven't had the opportunity to

424
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 4: really really work on the run game. Okay, I'm saying

425
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 4: this because of CD Lamb. You know, all of a

426
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 4: sudden you become a very one dimensional football team, and

427
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 4: you've been behind in a lot of these games the

428
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 4: last two weeks. You look up, the score is twenty

429
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 4: one to six, right, you know, I mean that every time,

430
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 4: and then you look up it's twenty eight to six,

431
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 4: you know, and you just can't get any stops. You know,

432
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 4: they found some things. Lamb wasn't as good in the

433
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 4: second half. I mean he had one catch for nine yards.

434
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 4: Everybody else Tolbert Cooks Ferguson everybody else kind of got going.

435
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 4: They hunter lip Key, they use guys and got things

436
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 4: going and got back in that football game. We all

437
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 4: know what the Ravens can do. The Ravens will kind

438
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 4: of beat you up and then they let you back

439
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 4: in the game. But a and this is talking about Lamb.

440
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,199
Speaker 4: Dak has this we call the dackyard where he's got

441
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 4: this football field in the back, and him and CD

442
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 4: had worked it quite a bit together, but there was

443
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 4: obviously some misses that they had in the game. Dak

444
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,400
Speaker 4: missed him a couple of times. Ceed had a crucial

445
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 4: fumble in this game too. Dallas was moving the football

446
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 4: and they were finally finding some rhythm and Lamb catches

447
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 4: the ball and goes inside and then gets it knocked

448
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 4: out of his hands for a fumble right on about

449
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 4: the nine yard line, and that just killed the drive

450
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 4: right there. And from that point on, it appeared that

451
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 4: Ceedee Lamb was fighting himself. He was mad at himself,

452
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 4: he was frustrated, he was frustrated with his role, that

453
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 4: frustrated with how he was playing at the time. You know,

454
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 4: he came out and said this just yesterday that he

455
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 4: has to be more of a professional about things. So

456
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 4: I think that, you know, CD the pressure of being

457
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 4: one of the top paid receivers, but also one of

458
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 4: these guys that they he wants to be somebody when

459
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 4: things aren't going well, that you can lean on him,

460
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 4: you can give him the ball and things will get better.

461
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 4: And I think he takes a lot of things personally

462
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 4: that way. I don't think he was necessarily mad at

463
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 4: Dak or Mike or anybody like that. I think he

464
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 4: was more mad at himself for not living up to

465
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 4: this new contract that he just signed.

466
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:21,679
Speaker 1: Two more You mentioned the running game. I have all

467
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 1: the respect in the world for Ezekiel Elliott in short yardage,

468
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: his pass pro and all that stuff. But when I

469
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: see him what running between the twenties, Brian, I gotta

470
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: be honest with you, he seems to fall down a

471
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,880
Speaker 1: awful lot, and Regal Daddle just looks like the better

472
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: running back to me.

473
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 4: Right now, they're a better team running the ball when

474
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 4: they do run the ball without Ezekiel Elliott in the game,

475
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 4: and they need to make the determination on the short week.

476
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 4: You're not gonna see Dalvin Cook now all bets maybe

477
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 4: be off next week against Pittsburgh. We'll see how that plays.

478
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 4: But yeah, you're going to see Ezekiel Elli. You'll probably

479
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 4: see war Rico Dawdle, Deuce Fawn will be involved, and

480
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 4: Hunter Lipkey will be involved as well. They Rico Daddle

481
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 4: has become a much better blitz pickup guy. And you

482
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 4: know when you watch the Giants play, you better be

483
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 4: ready for some blitz pickup stuff. It's not gonna happen

484
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 4: to you all the time, but you will see guys

485
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 4: that come. You know, it's not all about the push,

486
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 4: the great push they get inside or the guys on

487
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,360
Speaker 4: the edge. That Pinnic, you'll see him blitz. You'll see

488
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 4: others come. You have to be ready for the blitz

489
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 4: pickup stuff. With his football team, Rico Dadle has shown

490
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 4: he can do that. Hunter Lipke has shown he could

491
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 4: do that. They're gonna get Deuce Vaughn involved in some

492
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 4: of the underneath stuff. The screen game, the Texas routes,

493
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 4: where it's out, it's in, it's inside. You know, those

494
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 4: are the kinds of things. But right now, a Ezekiel

495
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 4: Elliott on the field is a negative player for the

496
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 4: Dallas Cowboys, and there hasn't doout history that hasn't always

497
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 4: been the case, but as we live and breathe here

498
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four, that is the case.

499
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: Offensive line, Brian Rookie, Cooper, Baby, Tyler Guyton. How well

500
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: are they playing? I know Tyler Guyon had a rough

501
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: time in week one, by the way, so did Andrew

502
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 1: Thomas in week three. Miles Garrett is just really good.

503
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: So I'm so I'm not holding it against either one

504
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 1: of those guys with those performances. How have they played?

505
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:14,719
Speaker 1: And do you think Terren Steele has looked little bit

506
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 1: better this year another year off that acl.

507
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, It's are all very good questions and you're absolutely right.

508
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:19,719
Speaker 2: Uh.

509
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 4: When you look at Tyler Guyton in week one against

510
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 4: Miles Garrett, it was a survivant just to survive. I

511
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 4: mean it was poor kid.

512
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,360
Speaker 1: I felt bad for him. Man, we want to get

513
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: that monster, but Kenny, it.

514
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,400
Speaker 4: Is it is all you could do to keep your

515
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:38,360
Speaker 4: feet in your hands and everything together there and they

516
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 4: you know, he he survived the game. He actually survived

517
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,199
Speaker 4: the game. You know this is another this you know

518
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 4: he was he was this past week against Oway. Uh.

519
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 4: You know, they they had some moments where they had

520
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 4: a couple of pressures on him, but his hands and

521
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 4: his feet are getting better. Uh. Steele. On the other side,

522
00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 4: Steele was really you know, has been good against what's

523
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 4: good against the Browns, not so good against the Saints.

524
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 4: A little bit of some struggle last week, you know,

525
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 4: against the Ravens. But that's kind of where he is.

526
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 4: He might be a one sack a game guy, and

527
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 4: you just you know, you grade him sixty five plays.

528
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 4: He might have two bad plays. Your hope is the

529
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 4: one bad player the two bad plays that he has

530
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 4: doesn't get your quarterback killed or gets the ball knocked

531
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 4: at his hands. You know, with Burns Thibodeaux, you know,

532
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 4: there's always possibilities. Those two guys are legitimate pass rushers.

533
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,400
Speaker 4: So this will be tough both for Steel and for

534
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 4: guiding in this football game. And then Cooper bb inside

535
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 4: at center will have his hands full with that monster

536
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 4: nose tackle you have. So you know, is Zach Martin

537
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 4: playing at a all pro level? No, he's not. Tyler

538
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 4: Smith probably him bybe probably two of your most consistent

539
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 4: offensive linemen right now, the left guard the center. But

540
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,719
Speaker 4: the bar with Zach Martin is so high that just

541
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 4: being Zach Martin like just a you know, a instead

542
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 4: of an All Pro, a Pro Bowl guy, or maybe

543
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 4: a tick lower than that. There's been some times where

544
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,719
Speaker 4: there people have gotten some push on him and if

545
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:19,119
Speaker 4: affected things in the pocket. Uh, he's clearly he's clearly

546
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,880
Speaker 4: playing the back nine right now for him. He's he's

547
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 4: just played at such a high level that when you expect,

548
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,880
Speaker 4: you're gosh that I've never seen that happen before. It's

549
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 4: happening a little more now.

550
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: All right, final question, Brian, anything that maybe Giant fans

551
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 1: aren't thinking about the Cowboys, that maybe they should be

552
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 1: anything you but we haven't discussed that. You're really keeping

553
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 1: an eye on about this game and this matchup on

554
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 1: Thursday night.

555
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, something that the Giant fans need to be very

556
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 4: mindful of is if this thing comes down to kicking

557
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 4: field goals, Dallas has got one of the best in

558
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 4: the league. And what's scary is and I don't know

559
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,639
Speaker 4: what classic field logo you guys will have in the

560
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 4: middle of your field. I don't know if we'll have

561
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 4: the New York Football Giant one, the big circle with

562
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 4: the guy throwing the ball. But if we get into

563
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,880
Speaker 4: that or we have the old two bar giant helmet

564
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 4: in the middle left field. I don't know, but this

565
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 4: Dallas team, well, they're not afraid. If they get near that,

566
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 4: they will trot that kicker on. Now we're in an

567
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 4: open air stadium. We'll see what the conditions are. But

568
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 4: this kid has got legitimate leg and if it comes

569
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 4: down to oh man, hey, you gotta you know, it's funny.

570
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,399
Speaker 4: We all we see when we're watching these games on

571
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 4: TV the field goal line that's gonna draw a line.

572
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 4: His is kind of like at the opponent's forty.

573
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 1: Five, which is crazy.

574
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, but that's that's one of the advantages that you,

575
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 4: as the Dallas Cowboys do have. And I sit there

576
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 4: every week and I'm a old school man. I would

577
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,199
Speaker 4: not give him the ball here. I wouldn't. I wouldn't

578
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 4: try it. And the next thing you know, he's knocking

579
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,639
Speaker 4: home a sixty five yard field goal. So you know,

580
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:58,959
Speaker 4: keep an eye on that if it turns it And

581
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,679
Speaker 4: I do I I know on Dallascowboys dot Com, I

582
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 4: picked the Giants to win this game. I do. I

583
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,959
Speaker 4: think some of the things that the Giants do can

584
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 4: give the Cowboys problem. I think the Giants for a

585
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 4: better football team than what we've seen in the past.

586
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,200
Speaker 4: With this New York Giant football team. The skill players

587
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 4: are much better. The quarterback, they're done getting the ball

588
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 4: out of his hand. You know, he's not making the mistakes.

589
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 4: I think he still kind of throws the spots a

590
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 4: little bit. Maybe you can confuse him. But yeah, I

591
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 4: picked the Giants to win this thing twenty six to

592
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 4: twenty three. Dallas has got to prove to me that

593
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 4: they can stop the run and they can get something

594
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,120
Speaker 4: going offensively. But this is not the old Giants team

595
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 4: in the past where you go in there and you

596
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 4: roll your helmet out there and expect to get a victory.

597
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 4: I think this is gonna be a very difficult game

598
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,400
Speaker 4: for the Dallas Cowboys to win.

599
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 1: And you mentioned specially just real quick, Brian Dable was

600
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,439
Speaker 1: just waxing poetic about Cavante Turpin this week. I'm not

601
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 1: sure if you saw that. It looked like watching that

602
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: Ravens game, they were just kicking it away from him.

603
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: They wanted no part even getting the ball in his hands.

604
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 2: Right.

605
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 4: No, that's and that's something you out you have to

606
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 4: think about. And to me, you know, he is capable

607
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 4: of bringing the ball back to midfield, especially if you

608
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 4: kick it to him where he can run up on

609
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 4: it where everybody's stationary, and now he's catching it and running,

610
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 4: that ball's gonna end up at the forty yard line

611
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 4: every time that happens. But you know, so, yeah, you're

612
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 4: very smart to kick it out of the end zone

613
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,439
Speaker 4: or kick it away from him, because he's got that

614
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 4: kind of capability. If they block the thing clean, then

615
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,159
Speaker 4: he's got the capability of bringing it back on you

616
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 4: or putting it on their side of the field, of

617
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 4: the giant side of the field. So it's going to

618
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 4: be an interesting game in a lot of different ways.

619
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 4: I think Robinson and you start talking about Robinson and

620
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 4: how a receiver Turpin Robinson, same kind of guy, you

621
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 4: get him the ball kind of things happen. I can say,

622
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 4: I love my LSU kid. You know, I'm an LSU alum.

623
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:50,320
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm one of the few guys I got

624
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 4: called a homer a bunch because I had this kid

00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 4: over Marvin Harrison and I But I seen him play

626

627
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 4: not a surprise to me. I've seen this kid make

628
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,440

Speaker 1: I'm great? So how did your team keep it together

657
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: in the locker room? Obviously? Oh and two start. No

658
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 1: one wanted that. I'm sure emotionally you guys are down

659
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 1: on yourselves. How did you hold it together heading into

660
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: to Cleveland to come up with that performance that you did?

661
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, we just know it was a week the week

662
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 6: you know, business here, and you know, we just got

663
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 6: to take it one week at a time. We just

664
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 6: gathered together as a defense, as a unit, everyone just

665
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 6: trying to improve on what we could fix throughout the

666
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 6: games and try to just focus, look at look in

667
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 6: the mirror, and just check yourself and just come together

668
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 6: as one and try to fix it all out there

669
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 6: on Sunday.

670
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 1: How much is it how the coaches address you after

671
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: those two tough losses, and how much is it you

672
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: guys talking to each other one on one, player to

673
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 1: player in the locker room.

674
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, definitely, it's like it's really like a player's thing,

675
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 6: you know, because we're the ones out there on the field,

676
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 6: you know, That's why it's all. We got to keep

677
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 6: it together and keep it make sure, we're talking to

678
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 6: each other every day whatever it is, just just making

679
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 6: sure you you know, just keep keep keep the communication

680
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 6: up because that's big when you're out there on the field.

681
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: What was the difference for the defense in week three

682
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: after a rough week. I'm sure it's stuck in your guys,

683
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: Crawd not one punt, not one takeaway against Washington.

684
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 5: Right, yeah, yeah, we man, it was tough, man.

685
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 6: We just we knowed we had to come out there

686
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 6: and try to find ways to get takeaways. That's a

687
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 6: big emphasis and we did that and you know that

688
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 6: helps big time.

689
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 2: Man.

690
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 5: We just gotta keep keep going for that big time.

691
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: Is it just a continuing of getting used to Bowen system?

692
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: Is it executing better on the field? What made the

693
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: difference from it? Like an exis and it was an

694
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: execution perspective.

695
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 6: I'd say it's probably execution and just want to for real,

696
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 6: just execution, want to just just grind and great, it's great,

697
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 6: really for for sure, I believe that's what it is.

698
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 1: Now. Shane was a little bit more aggressive in the game.

699
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: You guys played more manna man, and you blitzed more

700
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 1: than you did in the first two games combined. Going

701
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: into the game. Did you realize that was going to

702
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: be the plan?

703
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 6: Uh?

704
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm you know, coach.

705
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 6: He called it aggressively and we were practicing that, so

706
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 6: it was ready and we executed out there and was

707
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 6: just ready to attack, attack, attack, attack, And that's what

708
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 6: I feel like we did that.

709
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:08,959
Speaker 5: We did that Sunday.

710
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 1: Why do you think that was a more successful approach

711
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 1: for your group in that particular matchup?

712
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, I feel like, you know, we got the pieces

713
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 6: everywhere that we match up with everyone, you know, so

714
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 6: I felt like that was a great, you know, great

715
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 6: play calling scheme.

716
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 5: Everyone just the pressure here here and there everywhere.

717
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 6: So it was like getting people off the spot and

718
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 6: all that, and it was just being disruptive.

719
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 5: I think all over.

720
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: How does that help you when they send more than

721
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 1: four as an edge rusher to try to get home

722
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: and disrupt the quarterback.

723
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 6: Definitely, Man, you get a different match, you might get

724
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 6: a rushaur on the guard. You know, he's just switched

725
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 6: up things, you know, interior pressure. It's like you put

726
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,959
Speaker 6: the quarterback on off his spot, which is big, get

727
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 6: them off his spot. It's just like time time things

728
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 6: up quicker. He has to make a decision quicker, and

729
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 6: it's just it disrupts a lot of things, and that's

730
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 6: what is very important, impactful for sure.

731
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 1: Now, last year, the defense does not have the opportunity

732
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 1: to put in many leads. You guys are usually behind

733
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 1: or it was very close. You guys got to a

734
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 1: two score lead in the first half in this game.

735
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 1: How and the Browns they tend to throw the ball

736
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: a little bit more once they're down by two score.

737
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 1: So how does that help you as a pass rusher?

738
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 1: What a team is really in that past first mode

739
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 1: for an entire half of football.

740
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, when the team is in that past first mode,

741
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 6: for sure, you get the pin of ears back and

742
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 6: read your keys and completely like try to get off

743
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 6: the ball as fast as you can and try to

744
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 6: really try to be an advantage on an old line

745
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 6: man because you know, they know it's pass and we

746
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 6: know it's passed. So it was like it's time to

747
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 6: go down the road, try to go get home and

748
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 6: try to affect the quarterback no matter what way you can.

749
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 6: You know it's pass because they're trying to catch back

750
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 6: up how to go in and throwing things.

751
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 5: So, you know, we just try to run games. Whatever

752
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 5: it is. We try to get back there and just

753
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 5: make a big play for the team.

754
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 1: Now, fans were upset. They considered, and I'm not saying

755
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 1: they're correct. They considered the first two games. They thought, oh,

756
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: they played a little bit passive, they played too much zone.

757
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: But I to talk to you guys in the off season,

758
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 1: I talk to Shane. That is not the key word

759
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 1: that he uses in meetings with you guys. He even

760
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 1: if it's his own scheme and you're not blitzing a lot,

761
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: he still wants you guys to play aggressive. Right, So

762
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 1: can you explain that the fans how you guys still

763
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: love an aggressive mindset even if you're not blitzing a ton,

764
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: even if you're not playing a ton of man man.

765
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:18,399
Speaker 1: Can you explain that the fans how those two things

766
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 1: are possible at the same time.

767
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, definitely, We just go out there. He's an attacking

768
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 6: type of mindset, defensive corder. He wants it to attack, attack, attack,

769
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 6: if he wants to us before and get there. And

770
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 6: attacking mindset. He wants to roll off the ball, just

771
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,759
Speaker 6: roll off and attack vertical like he wants. He wants penetration.

772
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,759
Speaker 6: And that's his style. And we love, we love the

773
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 6: style even in the back end, like the air attackers,

774
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,120

775
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 6: and you know that's what we do. So I I

776
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 6: feel like that's that's what we got to show.

Speaker 5: can switch things up on people.

784
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 6: So it ain't you know that you try to bring

785
00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 6: the tackle onto your world and so bring him in

786
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:00,839
Speaker 6: that space, make move a little bit.

787
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:02,479
Speaker 5: So that's it's lovely for sure.

788
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 1: And I thought you guys did that, did a good

789
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 1: job of that. Last week, you guys are a lot

790
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:07,799
Speaker 1: of times we were lined up against the wan Djroones,

791
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 1: who's the right tackle, good young player, right right, but

792
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:14,320
Speaker 1: he's a large man. Yeah's big and he's a mountain.

793
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 1: But mountains don't move that well. And it seemed like,

794
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 1: and again this is not me taking a shot the players, Yeah,

795
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 1: but it seemed like they wanted to get you kvon Burns,

796
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,240
Speaker 1: who weigh literally a hundred pounds less than he does,

797
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 1: and you wanted to use your speed to kind of

798
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 1: challenges outside shoulder. Was that part of your game plan

799
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:30,040

801
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,280

802
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 6: one of the main things we want to do. He's

803
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 6: a big man, so we want to get him move

804
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 6: in his feet and try to just beat him with speed,

805

00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, man, that's special.

812
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 6: It's just this just shows all the work we got,

Speaker 5: Yeah, that was phenomenal.

839
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,000
Speaker 6: You know why, because it's like building that callus every

840
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 6: day I practice that continuous effort grind. Great, every day

841

842
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 6: you definitely for the regular season because you know, trading

843
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 6: can is supposed to be hard. Practice is supposed to

844
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 6: be hard. So when the season comes, it's not it's

845
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 6: not saying it's gonna be easy, but it's supposed to

846
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 6: help you get through these You know, the season throughout

847
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 6: the length of the season is a long season. The

848
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,280
Speaker 6: great and grind your body should be used to it

849
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 6: and it's word prepared.

850
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 5: So it's great.

851
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,200

855
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,560

856
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:32,880
Speaker 5: it is.

857
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 6: You know, it's early in the season still and but

858
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 6: you know, bodies feeling great and I feel like this

859
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:39,399
Speaker 6: is a great time and great peak and just keep

860
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:39,840

00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,319
Speaker 1: Did you did you ever feel as good as you

862
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 1: do right now today at any point during last season? No?

863
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,279
Speaker 5: No, no, not last no, not any point.

864
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 6: I say the only when early in the season, probably

865
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,319
Speaker 6: week two or three it was. It was early though,

866
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:55,879
Speaker 6: but after that it was it was over.

867
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:56,879
Speaker 5: After that was tough.

868
00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 1: How was it helped? How does it help you as

869
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 1: a player besides like the physical stamina, stuffs of technique,

870
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 1: being ready to play, being able to practice, and just

871
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: worry not having to be in the training right. I

872
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:10,840
Speaker 1: know you love Ronnie Barnes, but you don't want to

873
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 1: see it every day, right, So how does it help

874
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 1: you use a player to be I should be able

875
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,280
Speaker 1: to practice every day and hone your craft.

876
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 6: Man, it's phenomenal because every player needs those reps, those reps,

877
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 6: those reps, those reps are very important and being out

878
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 6: there seeing the game playing, you know, striking your hands,

879
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,319
Speaker 6: your feet, your leverage, your pat level, all of that.

880
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 5: Take reps, reps, reps in days after days, at the

881
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 5: days of.

882
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 6: Constantly doing it, doing it right way, and you know,

883
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:37,920

884
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 6: the season's roll, you're out there rolling. It's quick easy.

885
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,759
Speaker 6: Oh you've seen that before. Oh okay, I've seen that

886
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 6: in practice. Oh that's what we talked about last in

887
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,799
Speaker 6: training camp. Okay, it's coming back up and you see it,

888
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,399
Speaker 6: you feel it. Oh there you go, boom, just like that.

889
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,400

Speaker 6: come out there, execute it, execute a high level players

931
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 6: together as a team as a unit as one, and

932
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 6: give it all. Give it all, because man, we got

933
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 6: we gotta get a win.

934
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 1: And you guys haven't sacked dak in a minute either.

935
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:37,160
Speaker 1: What makes him a difficult quarterback aside from his ability,

936
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: maybe the mental part of it, what makes him difficult

937
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 1: to sack.

938
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 6: Man dak Man that is a great quarterback. He's a

939
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 6: big guy, He's he's elusive. He could get out sacks,

940
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 6: and when he goes down, he tries to get the

941
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 6: ball out. He's always looking to throw. He's not always

942
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 6: trying to take a sack. He's not just going to

943
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 6: go down on first contact. He's looking to get that

944
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 6: ball out of his hands. So that's that's that's probably

945
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 6: one of the big things. He's always looking for his

946
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 6: receivers or whatever a chance he gets to get him

947
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 6: to get the boss one.

948
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,399
Speaker 1: I think people think of him as a young quarterbacks still,

949
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:05,839
Speaker 1: but is he kind of turning into one of those

950
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,359
Speaker 1: quarterbacks that it's really hard to trick and fool him

951
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 1: now given everything he's seen.

952
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, Dak just seeing a lot.

953
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 6: He's one of those quarterbacks definitely, for sure, big time

954
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 6: quarterback man.

955
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 5: He's a great quarterback. He knows, he knows what's coming

956
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 5: to He's been in the late for a long time.

957
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 6: You know, he's done it at a high level, and

958
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 6: so he's definitely on that level for sure.

959
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: Now, the good news for you guys, you don't have

960
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,359
Speaker 1: to deal with Tyron Swith anymore. He's not there. He's gone.

961
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 1: You don't have to worry about him. Now, tell me

962
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 1: about the two offensive tackles you've gone against Terrence steelber Water.

963
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 1: Then they have the rookie Tyler guy, and I'm sure

964
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 1: you've watched him. Tell me about those two guys. How

965
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 1: they similar, how they different? What do they look like

966
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:37,840
Speaker 1: on tape?

967
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're all you know, they got two great guys

968
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 6: too also, And you know, every every time we go

969
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 6: out there is great.

970
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 5: You know, it's great competition.

971
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 6: Try to get after those guys, and we just got

972
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 6: to keep keep working as a unit, combative rush all

973
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 6: inside guys and outside guys. We got to rush and

974
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 6: combat it because that could also run and get out

975
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,000
Speaker 6: of there. So we got to make sure he's combat

976
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 6: and keep him in that pockete cage him up and

977
00:41:59,040 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 6: try to get to him.

00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 2: Man.

979
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:00,760
Speaker 5: Both of the tackles.
