It is December, and despite 9 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: two straight losses in the past week, your Dallas Cowboys 10 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: have a one game lead in the NFC East, four 11 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: games to play exactly. Ever, since you're not gonna affect 12 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: by having just fairly they blew that one. They didn't. 13 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: They didn't just get beat. They lost. How about that 14 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 1: with a late play by Taco Charlton as well, Mick 15 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: to help those Dolphins out. Taco helped out a little bit, 16 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: and the Dolphins helped themselves, like us, Yeah, I'm gonna 17 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: get my hand in there. He did more for us 18 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 1: not being on the team than he did while he 19 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: played for us. That's a many way to put it. 20 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: It's amazing. Yeah, wake up call for him. So breaking news. 21 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: It might be cold in Chicago. Ah, man, that's a surprise, 22 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,479 Speaker 1: is that the report you got just now? Yeah? Yeah, 23 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: everybody was worried about winds blowing hard. It's gonna be 24 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: the wind's gonna come off the lake that direction. Yeah, 25 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: that's that's that's a change. Although I think from what 26 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: I saw, this is gonna be a balmy December evening. 27 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: It's gonna low of thirty one. Really, yeah, break on 28 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: that ten percent chance of per dipicipation ten to I 29 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: think I saw eight to ten mile an hour win 30 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: gonna be out there with short sleeves on, you know, 31 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:08,959 Speaker 1: because the fans they really get into that, you know, 32 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: as much as they looked miserable when they come to 33 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: games like that, the Patriots fans, you know, the cold 34 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 1: weather fans, they looked forward to the miserable weather. I 35 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: remember Dennis Thurman telling me about when he was playing 36 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: at usc and every time they went up to Washington 37 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,679 Speaker 1: and it would start to rain and the fans would 38 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: just go crazy, and that was that was there. That 39 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: was the thirteenth Man. You know, the weather itself, not 40 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: the twelfth Man, was that was the fans and the 41 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: thirteenth Man was was a mother nature and they loved it. 42 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: They loved it. I tell you a neat scenario. It 43 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,839 Speaker 1: was like a christening for the Bearers. In eighty five 44 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: when they won the NFC title game there, I was 45 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: covering the game there and as the game was getting 46 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: ready to finish, and it was over, and the fans 47 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: are cheering, and all of a sudden, they just start 48 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: snowing and snowing hard, and the cheering that louder and 49 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: louder and louder. It's like you just got christened, right, 50 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: you are NFC champs for the first time. I would 51 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: imagine the players are down there, were just in the 52 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: worst conditions ever. They hate, they hate, their fans love it. 53 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: And then conversely, a year or two later, they were 54 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: playing the forty nine ers at home in a NFC 55 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: title game, and everybody's like, oh, the forty nine ers, 56 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: they're coming in here from the West Coast. They are 57 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: not going to be able to deal with this weather. 58 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 1: This is Bears weather, right, they kick Bears clocks out 59 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: of there. Weather had nothing to do with it, right. 60 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: They were just a better team at that point, so 61 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: weather weather, and it's they can kind of mimic the 62 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: weather a little bit today. That's why they're practicing outside 63 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: on a Monday. That's a Thursday, right, that's right. Hey, 64 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: I'm getting confused, and you confuse me with them. Jason 65 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: always confuses you to just come to practice, and they 66 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: tell me to come to practice. Okay, I don't. And 67 00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: it's a grass field too, by the ways. Wow, So 68 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: that's why. That's another reason why they wanted to play 69 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: paint paint. Remember the pa is good. I remember my 70 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: front yard was in green in December. I can tell 71 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: you that, all right. So we have not convened since 72 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: Wednesday of last week, since we made predictions for Cowboys bills. 73 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: It feels like this game man not Well, who's the closest. 74 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 1: I might have been the farthest. I think I had 75 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: thirty one seventeen. Well, I told you would not be 76 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: that high. I tried to tell you that, You're right. 77 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: They held him to fifteen points. Buffalo did. And so 78 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: that's two losses to two more winning teams in a 79 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: five day stretch. And now your Dallas Cowboys are six 80 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: and six with four games to play, and I think 81 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: we could talk about Buffalo, and I think we're kind 82 00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: of past that. I think we could probably get in 83 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: to the Bears more tomorrow with or without BILLI siff 84 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 1: he's here tomorrow. But mainly it's just kind of where 85 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: this team is at right now. What's the state of mind. 86 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: Is the confidence still there with four games left that 87 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: they can get this thing done. I think we find 88 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: out the confidence level on Thursday, because I'm sure this 89 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: was a blow to the heart that you went out 90 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: there and at home and you know, and Buffalo comes 91 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: in here and dominate you. And it was no if 92 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: fans or butts and for as I was saying, there's 93 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 1: no one play or one circumstance that turned that game around. 94 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: Like so many of their other losses, they just got beat. 95 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: The other team was better. Man. I still got hot 96 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: sauce in my mouth. Man, I got this hot sauce 97 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: taste in my mouth and it was killing me. I mean, 98 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: we have gone up against many defenses that have figured 99 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 1: out a way to contain Cole Beasley. We could not 100 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: contain Cole Beasley. Six catches, one ten, Yeah, yes, sir, 101 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: I mean that's just that's a ball that's balling and 102 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: a touchdown. That's balling. He comes in here. We know 103 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 1: he's coming in here. Did we just say we're going 104 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: to you beat our man, and you know, if you 105 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: can beat our man, then you can have it. You know, 106 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: we had no scheme to take him out of the game, 107 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: especially on third downs when we know he's key to 108 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 1: the team and he's key to the situation. I mean, 109 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: I get it. You want to have a little bit 110 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: of pride and say maybe whoever Jordan Lewis or whoever 111 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: would be guarding him, you would say, hey, you know, 112 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: can you handle this? And then I'm gonna put that 113 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: on you. That's great too, That's great certain situations. That's 114 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: great certain times when we have to bring all the 115 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: guys and we have to bring the pressure. Okay, this 116 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: is the challenge right now, Jordan Lewis to shut down 117 00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley. But in the scheme of things, you should 118 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: have something to be able to take him and eliminate 119 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: him from the game. We've seen it happen by other 120 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: teams when he was with us. So I just don't 121 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: understand how he can be not contained or at least 122 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: because you got to know where he is, you got 123 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: to know how hot he has been, at least in 124 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: the last four games. He started off kind of slow 125 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, I think fourth games 126 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: the season, he caught a touchdown and now he's been 127 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: on fire and we all know that. So I just 128 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: don't understand why something wasn't considered to take him out 129 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: of the game. I mean, these weren't It was no 130 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: rocket science out there. We knew where he was going. 131 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: Alan was looking at him sometimes he eyeballed him the 132 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: entire play, and yet here we are seems like we 133 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: are very surprised at his effectiveness. I don't understand that, say. 134 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: I think it goes back to I think I said 135 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: this last week about self evaluation. You should be able 136 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 1: to self evaluate yourself. Do I have somebody that and 137 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: cover him consistently one on one? The answer should have 138 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: been no, And because no one everybody, no one does. Yeah, 139 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: and everybody gives me grief about Jordan Lewis this and 140 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis that. But they left him man the man 141 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: on Beasley and this wasn't practice out here, right, you know, 142 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: he he couldn't cover him, and so you know, maybe 143 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: they do, miss Anthony Brown, but he needed help. And 144 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: I don't him out of the matter. I don't think 145 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: it mattered who you put on him, because he hadn't 146 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: been stopped by anyone. I'm talking about veteran defensive backs, 147 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: more senior than ours, and he's he's been hot, he's 148 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 1: still been hot. He hasn't cooled off at all. So 149 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: for you to assume that you've got that guy, I mean, 150 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: I love Jordan Lewis. We talk about Jordan at times. 151 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: Guy's a great kid. But that's just not fair. It's 152 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: just not fair. Number One, you talk about in practice, 153 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: you know, you do seven or seven one on one, 154 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: and I remember the Bees would always say, oh, well 155 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: you will never have that much time. You know, the 156 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: rush would have gotten to him by that time. Well, 157 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: our rush didn't get there. And there were times when, 158 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: you know, to George's disadvantage, Alan was running around back 159 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: there for a while and Geordie's trying to keep up 160 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: with Cole. And that's just not the position you want 161 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: to be in. To me, you just take him, you 162 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: take him out and make them go somewhere else. It's 163 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: the whole Belichick plan that I've always talked about it. 164 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make you do something different. Then show me 165 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: what you got. So I'm gonna take Cole Beasley out. 166 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,359 Speaker 1: That's the first thing we're gonna do in these key situations. 167 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: And we know it's every third down. It's not rocket science. 168 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: We knew exactly what they were going to do it, 169 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: and I guess we just said, hey, if you can 170 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: hit this in the mouth, we'll take it. And you 171 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: touched on another thing that I don't think was consistently 172 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: good enough, and I know they ended up with four sacks. 173 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: The pressure on Alan just wasn't there on a consistent basis. 174 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: He was way too comfortable in the pocket. Uh one, 175 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,959 Speaker 1: He looked like that back there a couple of times. Yeah, yeah, 176 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 1: just just didn't even have to pat his feet. He 177 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 1: just like flat footed, flat footed and just waiting. And 178 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: then his ability to run. They knew that was going 179 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,839 Speaker 1: to happen, and they didn't take that away either. Put 180 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 1: the spy. Did we have a spy? Well, you know 181 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: a lot of times I didn't notice they went dime 182 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 1: and they brought but they brought in another safety. It 183 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: wasn't another corner, was another safety, and I don't know 184 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: if that affected what was going on. Well, if you 185 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: bring another safety, then that's the guy you want to spot, right, Yeah, 186 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: it was. I believe that Josh Jones got to play 187 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: a little bit more than the normal in that game. 188 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: So I don't recall I don't recall anybody just hanging back. 189 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: I do not recall anybody eyeball on the quarterback making 190 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 1: sure he was contained, and because if they did, then 191 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 1: he must have got distracted running off the place and 192 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: throwing all over the plae Devin Singletary, they're young running back, 193 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: made plays with his feet as a runner and a receiver. 194 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: We talked about that during the week. And then offensively, 195 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: you mentioned the pressure on or not enough pressure on 196 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: Josh Allen Dak gets sacked four times, gets hit seven times, 197 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 1: and had two more turnovers, and the Cowboys lose the 198 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: turnover battle once again. And that's been the story pretty 199 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: much in all of their losses. I think they're minus 200 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: four for the season now in turnover margin, and when 201 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: you're not getting the takeaways on defense, it puts a 202 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: lot of pressure on only minus four I think, So 203 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: that's pretty good. Yeah, that's pretty good you're not getting 204 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: because you're not getting anything, that's I am shocked. Yeah, 205 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: I thought they'd be like eight ten say, And that 206 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 1: was another another deal that came out of that game. 207 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: And I don't know if other teams are going to 208 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: copy it, but they decided after that first series or 209 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: that first part of the game when the Cowboys were driving, 210 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: it's like, Okay, Dak's not beating us, we're blitzing. We're 211 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,959 Speaker 1: coming after a lot of blitzing. One that's been coming. 212 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: That's been happening since the Jets and lately too, Yeah, 213 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 1: since Greg Williams. That has been happening. And that's the 214 00:11:57,920 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: smart way to go. That's the only way to go 215 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: when you have a team as exciting as this. We 216 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: have an offense with all that talent, and you see 217 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 1: Dak sitting back there like we said, like some kind 218 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: of statue you. I don't know if he's card board, 219 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 1: if he's real. That's how still he is most of 220 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,839 Speaker 1: the time. So you were like, we gotta change this 221 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: nagative as well. Now when I don't let the receivers 222 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: run free through the zones, we're gonna get up in 223 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: their faces. You don't need an all pro defensive back 224 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: to shut down an all pro wide receiving. All you 225 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 1: just need to do is get on his nerves, just 226 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,839 Speaker 1: ruin his timing between he and the quarterback. And that's 227 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 1: what they're doing. Everything right now is going to be uncomfortable. 228 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 1: I'm not going to allow you to have these beautiful 229 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: play action passes and things of that nature. We're bringing 230 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 1: it no matter what. And Dak's been hanging in there. 231 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: He has, but he just might as well get ready 232 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 1: to see it. Weekend coming. There was a bunch of 233 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: double blitzers. They were coming, like on the screen paths 234 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: that he tried to throw that get intercepted. They were 235 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: coming from his right, two guys and they're coming untouched, 236 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 1: and they had a could play great design, was a 237 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 1: great screen to the left, Yes, and the defensive tackle 238 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: intercepts the ball. How many times have you seen you 239 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: gotta throw that thing right in the dirt, Yes, you know, 240 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: and just get get rid of it. Just don't even 241 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: give him an opportunity. How many times did you see 242 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: something in that game and you go, gosh, I don't 243 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: know if I ever saw that before. But the guy 244 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: with an interception right, the Cowboys try a field goal, 245 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: it gets partially deflected. At the end of the half, 246 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: their guy tries to field goal it hits the upright 247 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 1: and bounces in and then you got Alan recovering a 248 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: quarterback sneak fumble. Yeah that the ball just lays there 249 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 1: and he picks it up like he dropped a loaf 250 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: of bread. I gotta say, I was so upset that 251 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,439 Speaker 1: you got these big guys, man, and you know, we 252 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: want to I want to vilify him so badly because 253 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 1: they're big, you know, the big guys. And the ball 254 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: is right on the stomach. Man. You know it was 255 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: right by his nose. Come on, he's right there. When's 256 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,079 Speaker 1: the last time you've been that close to the ball 257 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: except for doing before the snap count right right? I 258 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: was so upset about that. I could not We are 259 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: a Murphy's Law team at this point, you know that, right, Yes, 260 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: everything that can't in this game we talked about that. Yeah, 261 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 1: I mean, how many times have you seen the cornerback 262 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 1: you fumble usually dive on it, right, No, he picks 263 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: it up and dives himself first down. No one saw it. 264 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: But I still go back to the interception in New England. 265 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: Everybody's dropping the ball. Give him comes with a one 266 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: handed off of Coop's leg. Somehow it stayed up and 267 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: he catches a I don't know what kind of interception. 268 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: That was one of the more underrated, amazing interceptions I've 269 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: ever seen, because you really couldn't see what happened on 270 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: that play. It just I think it was Coop's leg 271 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: stopped it from going down as he's trying to to 272 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: knock it down his fuehand. Just little things like that 273 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: to where you go, Wow, if you just think of 274 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: not just the Murphy's Law that we we're dealing with, 275 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: we're also dealing with our own incompetence. That's my question 276 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: for you. That is it just unlucky bounces or we're 277 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: talking about lack of execution on top of it. That's 278 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: that's that helps. That helps, the lack of execution helps. 279 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: But I'm just talking about the times when we have 280 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: made the first down or made a touchdown and we 281 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: shot ourselves in the foot with a big play or 282 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 1: a big call against us. And uh, if you were 283 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: to just add all of those up with the Murphy's 284 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: law situations that we're talking about this team here. Ron 285 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 1: Springs used to watch The flint Stones and he always 286 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 1: talked about the the bad luck slept Rock. Remember that character, 287 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: slept Rock yes, sir, that's what this team is. We're 288 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: full of slept rocks. Everybody's just Murphy's Law happening all 289 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: over the place, bad luck happening at every turn. When 290 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: it raises his head, well about losing your starting left guard. 291 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: And then two plays, Letters once again gives up a sack. 292 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: Wasn't two, there was one, it was it was two. 293 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: It was two because they had a completion. And then 294 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: the next play came in sack fumble and they recover. 295 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: So next man up, huh, that's not that's always worry 296 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: about next man up there. Well, it's gonna have a 297 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: reason they're the next man up. It's gonna be. It's 298 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: gonna be Xaviers to a Philo once again at left guard, 299 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: with Connor Williams set for surgery on his acl a 300 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: torn a cl to your point, Everson, before we go 301 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: to break that, there's a drive in the third quarter 302 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: that just to me, it sums up when they've had 303 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: problems this year. This summed it all up. They get 304 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: to the Bill's twenty five yard line first down and 305 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: Dak gets sacked for minus seven false start on Connor Williams, 306 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 1: and then they're during third and nineteen and they wind 307 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: up kicking a field goal that has missed. I was 308 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: gonna say, yeah, we did not make it. It was 309 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: wide right, red maher oh for two On the day 310 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: Mickey mentioned the one that got deflected. It seemed like 311 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: it might have been a low kick on top of it. 312 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: And there you are, and that's why you know this 313 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: team six and six trying to find answers.

Cowboys back to practice. They practiced on Sunday, 366 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:13,479 Speaker 1: which Everson was like a Wednesday schedule, and now second 367 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: of three full practices this week comes down today. They're 368 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: outside getting set for the Chicago Bears Thursday night football. 369 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 1: Bears trying to get a big win, stay in the 370 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: wildcard race. Cowboys trying to keep pace with their one 371 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: game division lead. And we covered some of the game 372 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: from last Thursday. Since we weren't with you guys for 373 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: a few days, I got to talk about Jerry Jones 374 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: and his comments after the game, very emphatic, not making 375 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: a coaching change. Sticking with Jason Garrett looking for one 376 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: of his quotes, he said, quote, this is not the 377 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: time for me. I'm looking ahead at another ball game, 378 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: and I'm looking ahead at winning four or five straight 379 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 1: and helping write a story that they'll talk about. How 380 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: it looked like you were down and out and you 381 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: got it back. Jerry full of optimism and preaching unity 382 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: with this football team with four games left. What did 383 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 1: you guys make of his comments? I mean, that was 384 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 1: the that was more the story than the game itself. 385 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: It shouldn't have been. It's a no brainer. I mean, 386 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: who's gonna give you the coach right now? You just 387 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: don't do that. You're still in the first place. That's 388 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: not gonna happen now. But trust me, his eyes on 389 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: the prize for later on in January. If something doesn't 390 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 1: go down by then, of course he knows what he's 391 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 1: gonna do. He's not gonna tell us. But no, I 392 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: don't know why such a story. It's just the fact 393 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 1: that this is this is truly not the time to 394 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 1: do it. You know, this is not one of those uh, 395 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: vengeance firings. You know, if you just really hated somebody, 396 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: maybe if he was the late great Buddy Ryan, you know, yeah, 397 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 1: you fire him now because he was just crazy. But 398 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: you don't do somebody like Jason like that, or this organization. 399 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: They just don't practice like that. This is not one 400 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 1: of those things, and it doesn't help any thing, right, 401 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he said, our best bet is to go 402 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: forward as is. Changing just the head coach wasn't gonna 403 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: change anything. Um, you know that would that I think 404 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: that would that would be just the opposite, right, Yeah, 405 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: it would be devastating for the team. I'm trying to 406 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 1: think of a time I said this on the fan 407 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: this morning, like when in the NFL have you seen 408 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: a first place coach get fired mid season? Like that 409 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 1: first place is first place? Has that happened? I mean, 410 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 1: you know, you see it in other sports. You see 411 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: um regardless of record. NHL, they'll change out a manager, 412 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: the Premier League soccer, they'll sack a guy and bring 413 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 1: in somebody mid season. In the NFL, when you do it, 414 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 1: it signals to me, it's It usually signals either your 415 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: season's over or there's or there's panic and you wave 416 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: the white flag. They've they've ridden with Jason Garrett for 417 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: how many years, and they're going to see this thing through. 418 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 1: I mean, I never thought Mick that this was a 419 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: consideration during the Obviously he's in the last year of 420 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: his contract and we'll see what happens. But everybody misinterpreted 421 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 1: what he said the day before Thanksgiving when when he 422 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: did his car wash interviews for the halftime show, and 423 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: everybody interviewed him, and I think on NFL Network he 424 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 1: said something to fuck well something. The effect was we 425 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: gotta win, and we gotta win now. And I think 426 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: everybody assumed that he meant tomorrow, and if he didn't, 427 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 1: you're out. Because I got I got email from people 428 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: in the business that should know better, and they're going, well, 429 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: what do we do tomorrow if they lose in Jason 430 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: gets fired on Friday and I was like what, and 431 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: they go, well, Jerry said it, like oh, that's not 432 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 1: what he said, or at least not what he meant 433 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: to me. That's when the tail starts wagging the dog. 434 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 1: Right the story is bigger than everything else. And you know, 435 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: you guys, you know, I like you guys. Okay, sometimes 436 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: you know, thanks, thanks and uh, but sometimes you know, 437 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 1: we just get it's so hyped, you know, we just 438 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 1: get so we almost like a dog after a bone, 439 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 1: you know, the narrative almost starts to take it. It 440 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: becomes a narrative, you know, the story becomes a naive 441 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: and it's nothing true comes out of anything, and if 442 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 1: it does, it's always exaggerated. So you know, to me, 443 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: it's like the election, you know what I mean, everybody 444 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: just relax, you know, don't don't you know, misinformation and 445 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: fake news and things of that nature. That's what we're 446 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: dealing with right now. And like you said, we're still 447 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 1: in first place and thank you, Philadelphia. The guy that 448 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: used to be kind of the executive assistant up there 449 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: for the head coaches, Bruce Mays would always tell me 450 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 1: perception becomes reality, and he was right, because whatever everybody's 451 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: perception is, you talk yourself into oh, this is the truth. 452 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 1: You know and you and you, it's the perception is 453 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 1: very evil disease out there. I'm pretty sure I just 454 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: saw Bruce this weekend. Real. I did, Yes, I did. 455 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: We had a good kind of say Okay, he was funny, 456 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: he's still funny, still still preach, he's still preach. Yeah, 457 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: I've seen Bruce. That's good. I was shocked. I was shot. 458 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 1: I'm no lie. I just happened to visit the suite. 459 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: They was. Yeah, that's sorry. I forgot. But he would 460 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,959 Speaker 1: have been here for year. One year, right, one year, 461 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: that's right. Yeah, if you want to call that a year. Yea. 462 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: Here's another quote from Jerry after the game. He said, quote, 463 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,880 Speaker 1: We're not sitting out here without our starting quarterback. We're 464 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,640 Speaker 1: not sitting out here without our starting running backs. We've 465 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: got our line in shape. Of course, Connor Williams now 466 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 1: injured out for the season. We've got receivers that have 467 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 1: gotten better and I think we've got really a chance 468 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: to play better on defense. So Jerry, he still believes 469 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: in the talent level of this team. How do you guys, 470 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: what do you guys feel about that? Well, let's look 471 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: at this. The biggest loss we had, what was the 472 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 1: differential Packers ten points eleven? Yeah, and it was more 473 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: than that. We we've because of our talent. Really because 474 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: of our talent. That's the only reason we've been in 475 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: some of these games, and most we should have won 476 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: because of our talent, and it was because of some 477 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 1: particular situation Murphy's law, bad coaching decision, one person coming 478 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: in and making a mistake. Because of it, We've we've 479 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: found a way to lose these particular games when we 480 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 1: had a chance to win them. So how do you 481 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 1: want to look at this pessimistically? Optimistically? You know? Are 482 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: we that that one bounce away from being the team 483 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: that we thought we'd be turning those tough games, tough 484 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: losses into tough wins. Are we really are we that team? 485 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: You know? Are we? Are we looking forward to that 486 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 1: team coming up and maybe these next three or four games, 487 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: that's the team that's gonna show they're gonna get the bounces, 488 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 1: they're gonna make the heads up decisions. You know, the 489 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: coaches are gonna make the right calls in our eyes 490 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 1: that that results in the win. Yeah, that's that's what 491 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: we're looking forward to. That's the optimism that you can 492 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: look forward to. If you're pessimistic, then you're looking forward 493 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: to everything that we've seen to this point with no changes. 494 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: Because this was the first time they got beat beat, right. 495 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: The other ones are what you were talking about, the 496 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: other five losses. This one they just got beat I 497 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 1: mean that was no, that was no two minutes, no 498 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: two minute drill. They could have made a difference. You 499 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 1: should have a field goal instead of going for no 500 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 1: crucial point, no crucial points. No, no, there wasn't. Just 501 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 1: one play. And then yesterday reinforced my theory on that 502 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 1: Jets Gamely they're terrible and you lost to them. No, 503 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 1: they're not terrible. I mean they what they won three games? 504 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: Three games? They won three games, six six games. Yes, 505 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: you're talking about that game in twenty years on't yes, 506 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,679 Speaker 1: I might be two uh yeah. Or that fumble against 507 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 1: the Rams in the regular season that year that yeah, seventeen, 508 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: Ryan Switzer. Yes, you're still that one. Um so, so 509 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 1: you've mentioned something that I think needs to be addressed, 510 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: and you mentioned the defense. I understand sometimes what goes 511 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: on with this offense, but the defense has just not 512 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: stood up and played. If you think about the two 513 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: previous games before New England they had given up what 514 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: fifty fifty five points and then they give up another 515 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: twenty six, They're they're not playing to the level of 516 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,719 Speaker 1: what we thought was the talent on that defense right now. 517 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,959 Speaker 1: I mean that's three games and who knows what New 518 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: England would have done if it was a dry field. 519 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I don't know what has 520 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: happened to our run defense. But what they'll do, they'll 521 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: hang their hat. I believe you talked about it last week. 522 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: What number seven defense or something like that against Yeah, 523 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: I'm not sure. We've got good numbers, rankings, The rankings 524 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: look good. So if you're gonna go in, it's like 525 00:28:57,880 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 1: a job with you if you're going to go in 526 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: and say, oh, okay, I deserve this, I deserve that. Oh, 527 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 1: we'll take a look at this. I'm you know, we 528 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: were number nine against the rush, number nine total defense. 529 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: That just says what you did. It doesn't tell you 530 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: about the things that you didn't do. Number one, you 531 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: don't get turnovers, okay. Number two, you don't control the 532 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: pace of any game. You don't. You're not the fire 533 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: okay that ignites this team. It's catch. It's like they're 534 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: playing off of the offense. If the offense does well, 535 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: we'll do well. If the offense doesn't do well, we 536 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: don't do well. And the key point here is there 537 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 1: are times when they play so well doing a ball game, 538 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 1: controlling all the situations, last two minutes of the game, 539 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: third down, all of that, then there's a time when 540 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: we need to stop. We gotta have this stop guy, 541 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: Just give me one on this drive. Okay, we got 542 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: three third downs on this drive. Just just stop us 543 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: once on one of these third downs, and it changes 544 00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: the entire situation. It gives us a chance to maybe 545 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: win a BA game. Will hold them off and when 546 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: it is time to to keep the uh, the opposing 547 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: offense off the field out third downs of horble and 548 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: they let them drive laid keep on driving out third 549 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: downs of hall and we know what they're gonna do. 550 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 1: It's not like it's a surprise. I say third downs 551 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: of horble. I'm not saying uh Alan was was six 552 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: for seven on no I mean running the ball. We 553 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: gave up a first down crucial situations and could not 554 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: get off the field. You mentioned takeaways, and that's that's 555 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: the biggest takeaway for me and Stephen Jones said it 556 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: on the fan last Friday. It's the elephant in your bone. 557 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 1: There's some side four straight games without a takeaways and 558 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 1: you know you're you're asking your offense to drive long 559 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: fields and so that's the part that doesn't get mixed 560 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 1: in when they're to your your question. Ever, so they're 561 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: they're eighth and total defense, they're ninth and scoring defense. 562 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: They have done things, some things well this year, but 563 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: Mickey's right, I mean it's not to their standard. It's 564 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: not what they expected this season. Um, they're playing without 565 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: Layton Vanderesh, They've had some injuries. He didn't play in 566 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 1: the game, Atoin Woods didn't play in the game. We'll 567 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: see if those guys can get back this week. But um, 568 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: it hasn't been nearly the consistent level that they expected. 569 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: I just remember Troy doing the game when he was 570 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: so fired up. I think that his game he crabbed 571 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: me up. I wish I could have seen his face. 572 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: I mean, he's read as a tomato, but he was. 573 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: He was upset, but he was also very h accurate. 574 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: And this one statement, you know, I love sometimes that 575 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: down home, you know, country approach. If you're gonna be 576 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: a big time defense, you gotta make big time plays, period, period. 577 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: Would you say that's our defense? Not in any stress? 578 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: Don't even give me that, Like, oh, I don't think, no, no, 579 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: you don't know better already. There was there was a 580 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: point in that New England game, and I don't remember where. 581 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: If I had my play by play that I keep myself, 582 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: I wrote down in capital letters and squared it off. 583 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 1: I said, they need a play, a play, they need 584 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: a play, and they just doesn't come, just doesn't come. 585 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 1: I mean they'll do the things like you know, negative yard, 586 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: that all looks great, but then we also, okay, negative, 587 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: y are just second and thirteen, and then all of 588 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: a sudden you give up nine, and now you got 589 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: third and three. Now you're looking at they get seven, 590 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: and here we are right back where we started. They 591 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: they I believe the Bill scored on five of six 592 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: drives at one point in the game, and one was 593 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 1: a missfield goal. And you know, Zeke hits two carries 594 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 1: in the second half, and that's I mean, the game 595 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: wasn't completely out of reach, but they felt like they 596 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: needed to pass to get back in the football game. Well, 597 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: you can see where the momentum was going. Yeah, Zeke 598 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 1: had good numbers, you know, average over five yards of carry. 599 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: I get that, but you gotta have points now. You 600 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: gotta have points now. And we didn't have a chance 601 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: for we didn't have any opportunities for a hiccup in 602 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: our offensive momentum. That's where they were trying to prevent, 603 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: even though they did not, But that was the whole goal. 604 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: And sometimes you just can't do that with Zeke. Now, 605 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: if you want to do it with Zeke, let's get 606 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: him out in space. Let's get hi empiled out of space. 607 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: I think that's something they really need to do more 608 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: of because I think it really it. It takes the 609 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 1: pressure off the wide receivers to just beat their man 610 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: every play. You know, we've got running backs that are 611 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: kicking our linebackers butts. Okay, tight ends and linebackersians and 612 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: running backs have been killing our linebackers. We need to 613 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: do the same to them. We've got very athletic running 614 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: backs and tight ends. We need to use them a 615 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: whole lot more. All right, let's take our final break. Thought, Okay, 616 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: I had one seconds. If anything can go wrong, it's 617 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: gonna go wrong. Did you notice that on the half 618 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: ending field goal attempt that got deflected Sean mcdermot's running 619 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: down the sideline trying to time. Yeah, that he didn't 620 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: get it. Ye? All right, go ahead, Murphy's law. Huh, 621 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: there we go.

Hurt somebody came out in this area, 668 00:36:57,719 --> 00:36:59,839 Speaker 1: like one out of five people and get something take 669 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 1: off their porch. I have, I have the little applications. 670 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 1: I see all those little bit ports people running off 671 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: with packages. Yeah, and that's crazy. It's one of them. 672 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:13,320 Speaker 1: Look like uspags, probably a bunch of them. Gotta watch it, 673 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 1: gotta watch it all. Right. Back to wrap it up, 674 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 1: one more theory, right, Sham brought it up in the 675 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:24,359 Speaker 1: press conference yesterday, and it made me think, especially after 676 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,799 Speaker 1: the way New England played last night and they had 677 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 1: a you know, a full week. The Cowboys had three 678 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 1: days to get ready, so you've done this before. When 679 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,240 Speaker 1: you play in the weather like they did at New England, 680 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 1: does that take something out of your body more so 681 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 1: than just a regular game when it's cold, windy and 682 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 1: wet like that. Well, it didn't last. I mean you 683 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 1: can tell that your body feels different, you know, you 684 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,279 Speaker 1: know it's going through some extreme situations. But once the 685 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 1: game's over, now you get your rest, you bounce back, 686 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: unless you're injured. Now, yeah, unless you had some injury. 687 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: But otherwise, now the cold doesn't come with you. No, 688 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:07,839 Speaker 1: we shed that. I was just wondering that second half 689 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 1: of that, and and Brad brought it up the second 690 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: half against Buffalo. They just looked lethargic, and well, that's 691 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 1: that's all here, that is all here. They realize where 692 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 1: they are right now, right in this particular season, and 693 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: if they're not careful, you have to have somebody with 694 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,959 Speaker 1: some experience, you know, someone that has a level head 695 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,760 Speaker 1: to just right the ship. And I'm talking about players. 696 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about coaches. There needs to be a 697 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 1: group of players that I heard they had the one 698 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,319 Speaker 1: little meeting or whatever. I don't know how they went, 699 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,239 Speaker 1: but someone has to step up, not just one, but 700 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,320 Speaker 1: some group has to step up and really show this 701 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 1: team how it needs to be done and not be 702 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,959 Speaker 1: afraid to fail. Right now, we're playing scared. We're playing 703 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 1: scared because the fans are doing us. Oh we're at 704 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,320 Speaker 1: home and we're getting We're playing like crap. You know. 705 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 1: I think for them, best thing might be is to 706 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: get the heck out of here. Let's go on the road. 707 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: That was always a bad one in fifteen season. Jimmy Johnson, 708 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 1: Jamie Jones. Where do we win? Right? The one win 709 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 1: we got we got away from home. Micky thought he 710 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,399 Speaker 1: was gonna cover history. I thought, rude history for him, 711 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 1: all right, gonna first oh it sixteen before we get 712 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 1: out of here. Yes, kicking situation. Yes, we talked about 713 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 1: Maher's two missus. Jason Garrett on the fans said today 714 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,359 Speaker 1: they're moving forward with him still as their kicker. They 715 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 1: did have three workouts yesterday. What's your guys thoughts on 716 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 1: Maha right now? I guess forward must be really brief 717 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: if they bring it in somebody a god. That was 718 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:38,800 Speaker 1: just like eighty nine we saw people running for the 719 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 1: old Dashes come to take our jobs. That was crazy 720 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: right there. I mean they would start, they would come 721 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: in work out on Monday, start on Sunday, and get 722 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:52,439 Speaker 1: released on the next Monday. The revolving door. I gotta say, 723 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:56,359 Speaker 1: I'm this guy. I don't know Van Drush. I'm sorry, 724 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, ma, but I just really feel that 725 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:05,959 Speaker 1: his inconsistencies are just compounding. Yeah, he just doesn't seem 726 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,360 Speaker 1: to you want to hit a streak, you know, you 727 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:14,280 Speaker 1: want to feel good field goals, and now after his failures, 728 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, here you come. Someone doesn't 729 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: get a block, and now he gets one tipped, which 730 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 1: possibly he is going straight down the middle. Yeah, so 731 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,320 Speaker 1: it doesn't It doesn't do well at all. And I 732 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,880 Speaker 1: think he carried I was talked to him yesterday and 733 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: he didn't stay in the moment on that second attempt. 734 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 1: I think he carried that miss into that miss and 735 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 1: you get another miss. Right, So they bring in three 736 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: guys Nick Rose Highland Park High School, kicked at Transferred 737 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 1: I think, and kicked at Texas, Uh, Tristan Vis Kayano 738 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 1: and Austin McGinness the last two guys XFL right. Vis 739 00:40:56,200 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 1: Kayano kicked preseason with Cincinnati and Austin McGinnis was they 740 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 1: got him off. He's with the Renegades right now. The 741 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 1: dais run again. Guy. No, that's the Highland Park kids. 742 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:13,319 Speaker 1: Nick Rose, and he actually kicked for the Redskins uh, 743 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 1: and he actually did decently with him uh that year 744 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 1: that he kicked for it. He came in when um, 745 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 1: I think it was Hopkins got hurt. Uh. And he 746 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:27,319 Speaker 1: last kicked for the San Antonio Commando. He stays right 747 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: around the corner, so he's close. He's in the neighborhood. 748 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 1: But what they were doing was kicking tires just to 749 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 1: see what was out there, because there was no way 750 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 1: you were going to make a change and tell the 751 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 1: kid come in here. Okay, two days of practice and 752 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:41,839 Speaker 1: oh big boy, you're going to Chicago in the win 753 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 1: and it's going to be thirty to getting the list together. 754 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 1: So now you've got ten days after this game, and 755 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 1: if things don't go well the next game, then you 756 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 1: at least did your homework right. But for my understanding, 757 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:57,560 Speaker 1: it was kind of windy out there and the kicking 758 00:41:57,640 --> 00:41:59,680 Speaker 1: wasn't real good. Well, it's gonna be windy out there, 759 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:03,719 Speaker 1: so none of them were really impressive. And I was 760 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:07,279 Speaker 1: looking at kickoffs and they were struggling. They can't weak. 761 00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 1: Can they reach them? Don't? No, No, go ahead. I 762 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 1: just wanted they could reach the zone. Yeah, they need, 763 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,880 Speaker 1: they need. They got to get this righted part of it. 764 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 1: As many offs that too, but as many close games 765 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 1: as they played, they got to be able to knock 766 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 1: these field goals in. All right, we are out of 767 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:25,279 Speaker 1: time already. Yes, thanks to Everson, thanks to Mickey, thanks 768 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,800 Speaker 1: to Kyle producing.
