Sorry, I'll be cracking 47 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 1: off the entire time. But first things first. Yes, this 48 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: is Patriots Week and it is first things first. What's 49 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: on your mind? With all your stuff laid out in 50 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: front of you, what would you like to start with today? Mickey? Well, 51 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:28,799 Speaker 1: I think that it came up in Kellen Moore's press 52 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: conference yesterday about his thoughts about facing Bill Belichick. And 53 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: you know, we know Belichick can come up with some 54 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: inventive defensive formations and game plans when he takes on 55 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: a big offense. Do you know anyone who's ever played 56 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: for Bill Belichick? I do you think we can find 57 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: some insight by what he might be doing? Hey, Chris, 58 00:03:55,560 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: go find somebody, and and and Kellen Moore was really 59 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: good about how he handled it. He basically he said, yeah, 60 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: this is a great opportunity, you know, and uh, you 61 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: know every week this is a good opportunity against different 62 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: offensive coordinators. And I go, yeah, but this is Belichick. 63 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: He yes, I understand it. He's the best coach in 64 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: NFL history. So we'll have to be really good and 65 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: preparing for this game. You know, what's what's interesting about 66 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: this week? And I don't I think it doesn't matter 67 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: what the Patriots record is now they're sitting there at 68 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: two and three. You know, there's certain weeks where you go, oh, 69 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: this could be a trap game. I mean, that doesn't 70 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: even enter the consciousness of a person this week when 71 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: you're going up against the Patriots and what game exactly? 72 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: The trap game means you're not prepared right exactly, and 73 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 1: and so the Patriots could be oh and five right now, 74 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: and but you circle this game on the calendar because 75 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: of the don't let it low you to sleep. That's 76 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: the trap game when you love to sleep about there? 77 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: What is the benign look? Right? And but I think 78 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 1: even for the coaches the players coming into it, you know, 79 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 1: it's like it's like, okay, you don't have to get 80 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 1: their attention right that you're you're playing the Patriots and 81 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 1: they know where they're going. And we thought the big 82 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: test for this offense was going to be Carolina, Right, 83 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: Well not so much. Right, This is the litmus test. 84 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: Right now, you go on the road against a team 85 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: that's two and three Belichick coaching. Can you go up 86 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: there and win for the first time since nineteen eighty seven? 87 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: Excuse me, and and deal with whatever the elements are, 88 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: whatever the environment is, the weather, whatever. Can you just 89 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: go up there and get this win going into the 90 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,239 Speaker 1: bye right, don't get ahead of yourself, like start looking 91 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: at that by like it's vacation time, right, And I 92 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: think this this is the litmus test of an offense 93 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: that is now. Uh, I forgot to look it up. Well, 94 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: you're looking that up. You have to go further back, 95 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 1: no further back than two weeks ago to understand how 96 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: difficult it is to go in there and get a win. 97 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: Right when, Now, obviously the Patriots had circled Tampa Bay 98 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: coming to town, I mean everybody had. But when when 99 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: Tom Brady and the Buccaneers, playing at the level that 100 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: they're playing at, even if they don't have Gronk, are 101 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: going in there and winning by two points, you know, 102 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: can barely get out of there with And so you're 103 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: going up there with the number one offense meeting most 104 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: yards per game, number two rushing offense. Uh. And then 105 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: the only team that's rushing for more yards than you 106 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: is Cleveland, not Tennessee. Uh No, because they got the 107 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: double barrel backs. Now yes, so again uh and you 108 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: are second in average points per game and only point two. 109 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,799 Speaker 1: There are only two points two points behind Buffalo. Buffalo 110 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 1: is one seventy two. The Cowboys have scored one seventy. 111 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: So this is an offense that has been rolling. Now 112 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: can it go on the road and roll against Belichick 113 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: in New England? And I think that's what we're gonna 114 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: hear all weeks. And when you look at what two 115 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: years ago we went into New England and the weather 116 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: was horrible, right, No, nobody had as baddest to be. Yeah. 117 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: I think Penguins wouldn't have liked it. Was both Dak 118 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: and Brady's worst games probably in their careers. Yeah, because 119 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: Dak out you think about it, Dack through for more 120 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: yards than than Brady, and they were both really not 121 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: impressive at all. One time you were going up against 122 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: the defense like the Patriots, and so looking at this game. 123 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: You've got, uh, not just Keller Moore having to deal 124 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: with it. We noticed and we spoke of how Dak 125 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: Prescott's able to come up to the line. And now 126 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: he's that quarterback, he's that guy that that we look at. 127 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: Now he's that Van Rodgers, he that that Brady. He 128 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: knows his offense back and forth. There's not many things 129 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: you can do to fool him, catch him off guard. Uh. Pressure, 130 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: still pressure, You're still all of them, still human. They're 131 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: still gonna sometimes make some mistakes. But this will be 132 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: a time to see if Dak Prescott and the Cowboys 133 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: can improve from two years ago. And that was a 134 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: thirteen to nine game two years ago, and it was 135 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: it was. It was an ugly game. We failed in 136 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: almost every effort offensively, and we want rolling as high 137 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: as we are right now. Okay, when the beginning of 138 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: last year is when Dak and the Cowboys offense was 139 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: really shown that they can just really run up numbers 140 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 1: and scores even at the behest of their own problems, 141 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: that they were having their own mistakes. But when you 142 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 1: look at the opportunity to show, Okay, this is the 143 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: improvement we've made from two years ago. Okay, Dad can 144 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: show his maturity. Keller Moore can say, Okay, I'm stepping 145 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: out of the shadows. Now I can handle anybody. I 146 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: can handle the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Now I can have 147 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: the New England Patries. It's a great opportunity just on 148 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: the personal level for these guys to make some moves. 149 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: I mean, there was, like I said, there was only 150 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: one touchdown left I mean scored in that game, and 151 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: it was. It ended up being set up by Matthew Slater, 152 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: one of the best special teams player in the league. 153 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: He blocked a punt right they get the ball at 154 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: the twenty I believe it was, and he ended up 155 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: throwing a twelve yard touchdown pass That was the only touchdown. 156 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 1: Cowboys had more yards total yards, more yards passing, but 157 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: they could not score a touchdown. Could the red zone? 158 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: Just like the red zone was a major problem two 159 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: years ago, it was a major problem last year. Yeah. 160 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: So again, would you like to review how the Cowboys 161 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: have fired against Bill Belichick's Patriots over the last twenty years? Well, 162 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: I probably can do it off the top of my head. Okay, 163 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: since Belichick got to the Patriots in ninety two thousand, 164 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: two thousand. Well, they haven't beat him since they They 165 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: played him in two thousand and three at New England, 166 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: a twelve nothing loss. So that was Parcels versus Belichick. Well, 167 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: unfortunately it was Parcels with Quincy Carter versus Belichick. It 168 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: was a playoff team the Cowboys had. Yes, I know 169 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,679 Speaker 1: which was which will go down as the greatest coaching 170 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: job in the history of the Dallas Cowboys that season 171 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: that he got that team with Quincy car and uh 172 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: and Barbara was after that, No, it was it was 173 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: it was Hambrick Hambrick squad. No, No, Barbara was a 174 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: couple of years later, several hours later. Five anyway, okay, 175 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: so and then oh seven was in Dallas and it 176 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: was a forty eight twenty seven and a New England win. 177 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: That's where I remember. That's the first time I saw 178 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: Brady in person. What year was that? Seven o seven? 179 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: So that was only one of one of three losses 180 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: that year. A t No. What I remember. What I 181 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: remember picture. What I remember about break in that game 182 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 1: is I've thinking seeing him on the sidelines and thinking, 183 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 1: this guy never sweats. Yeah, yeah, he always looks like 184 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 1: he's very dual commercial. Uh huh, yeah, it's the moose 185 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: that his wife gives him. Twenty eleven. So four years later, 186 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: playing at New England, it was a twenty to sixteen 187 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 1: New England win. Twenty fifteen at at and T Stadium, 188 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 1: thirty to six New England. Of course, that was a 189 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 1: year where the Cowboys lost the starting quarterback and benched 190 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: the backup for a guy to come off the bench. 191 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: Castle show never done. Now New England had Castle at 192 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 1: one point. They did okay, yeah, well he didn't do it. Okay, 193 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: but they didn't I say, okay, they didn't make the playoffs, 194 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: but they did go ten and six, and then most 195 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 1: recently it was twenty nineteen. The one thing, you know, 196 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: one of the things that I like about the seventeen 197 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: game schedule is now it just so happens that the 198 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: Cowboys got matched up against the Patriots. Otherwise it would 199 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: be two more years. You know, the rotation. Normally, when 200 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: you're playing a team from the other conferences, you only 201 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: play him every fourth year. Well, now we're playing the 202 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: Pith moves up. This moves up the calculations. Yeah, just 203 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it just so happened that because of where 204 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: they finished in the standings. Uh, the seventeenth game happens 205 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: to be the Cowboys and the Patriots. But and so 206 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: when we say it's been since nineteen eighty seven since 207 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have won at New England, which was an 208 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: overtime game twenty three to seventeen, well he wasn't. But 209 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: also the Cowboys haven't played the Patriots that often. No, 210 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 1: I understand that course of that time. But look what 211 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: happened from the beginning though, when they started playing them 212 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy one. The Cowboys one every year, the 213 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: seventh straight? Was it? Six seven in a row from 214 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: seventy one through ninety six over a twenty five year period, 215 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: seventh straight and then they have lost and they've lost 216 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 1: one to three six in a row since then. Right, 217 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: So kind of a weird series. This series goes in streets. 218 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: It gave me my two interceptions on Monday Night football. 219 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: I love New England. I had a great time there 220 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: every time I go. So was that the eighty one game? 221 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that rookie year. How many interceptions did you 222 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: have that year? Eleven? I think it was thirteen thirteen? 223 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: And concluded you forgot right if seven gets eleven. We're 224 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: going to Heaven super Bowl Heaven. That's right, that's right, 225 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 1: that's that's my that's my slogan. By the way, yes 226 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: it is. I gave you credit for it the other 227 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,719 Speaker 1: day on the radio. Thanks seven gets to see. I 228 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 1: like the Parsons aspect of it of eleven seven and 229 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: eleven seven, come seven, come eleven. Okay? And then well, 230 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: since I thought of it, I'll stick with what I said. 231 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: We can amend it if you need to, Bill, Yeah, 232 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: all right, he will, he will, SAgs rust me. It's like, 233 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: look what I came up. It is an exciting week, though, 234 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: Oh it is. It's specially you know what the other 235 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: part of it. You know what who the Stars are playing? 236 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: We got a National Hockey League team here in town. 237 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: You know who the Stars are playing on Saturday night? 238 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: The Bruins. They're playing the Bruins. You know where they're 239 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: playing in Boston? Are they really? Yes? Huh? You know 240 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: the Red Sox just qualified for the ALCS. They're already playing, 241 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: aren't they. Well know they want they won their division 242 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: series and yeah, they're awaiting the winner of this Astros 243 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: White Sox series, and so they're going to be playing 244 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: in the ALCS that they would be hosting it way 245 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: on Monday. So on Saturday night, White Sox did something, 246 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: just something happening. Run Frank Thomas, by the good guys. 247 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: Gavin Sheets. You know a lot about Gavin Sheets. Gavin Sheets, Yes, 248 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: not related to Gavin Lux who almost hit a home 249 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: run for the Dodgers. Lay, I thought that was gone. 250 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: He did too, Yes, he did. He was astounded that 251 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: it got caught under the wind. Got it. There's no 252 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: wind that there was. They win, They don't win until 253 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: they those flags were standing. You see that. You didn't 254 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: see the game at the Cotton Bowl the other day, 255 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: we had an eighty five yard punt in a seventy 256 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: eight yard punt. I saw, I saw the eighty five 257 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: yard Well, you have to talk to them about the 258 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: WW that's fires out there, so we don't have to 259 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: do it with true. Yeah, that's that's good karma right there, 260 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: because the ball hit the top of the wall, went over. 261 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: That's luck. That's good Carmen as opposed to bouncing off 262 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: the wall and then off a player for a ground 263 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: rule double. And you know when you land the center 264 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 1: field there right now is laying on his back what's 265 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: going on? I think he hit the wall pretty home 266 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 1: like Lorenzo Kane? Right? Was that Kane the other night? Yeah, 267 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 1: he hasn't moved yet. Oh are you happy about that? No, 268 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: I'm not happy. I'm just saying center fielder can't wipe 269 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: the smirk off his face. Astro center field, Yes, okay, 270 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: not Caesar Sedenio.

It's it's like, 333 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 1: it doesn't say app it says Mickey. It says Google 334 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: download in the app or Google play stores. So on 335 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 1: an Apple device, you have an app store. Well, why 336 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: didn't they say download in the app store or Google 337 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: play I'm video in all of this.

So the app play 340 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: store or the Google play storm. There's an app play store, 341 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 1: that an app store. There's a Google play store. Well 342 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: then why didn't say app store and Google play right down? 343 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 1: App store? I will next time? Oh my god, what 344 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: are we doing? This is the two bills, Chris. This 345 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: is just like the Belichick and plus sales doc. This 346 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: is the two bills, right, I got it all on video. 347 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: Miles Austin said it best when he went like this, Yeah, okay, 348 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 1: So to get this thing back on track, please, if 349 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: you're Bill Belichick, yes, what are you doing to stop 350 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: the Cowboys? Give me some sort of defensive plan? I 351 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: can tell you. Okay, well you could talk to Mickey there. 352 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 1: Very good. Damn all right. I felt like I was 353 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 1: back in nineteen ninety all over again. Wow, good stuff. Now, 354 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: what Belicheck does when he tries to get ready for 355 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: especially someone that he's aware of or someone that has 356 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 1: a lot of respect for, which would be the Cowboys 357 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: offense Kelly Moore and Dad Prescott, He's going to assign 358 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: every position player to work on what affects him the most. Okay, 359 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 1: He's going to give them a task. Okay, you look 360 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: at the movement. All you do is look at the 361 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 1: movement and what comes from all the movement that we have. 362 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: Find a pattern to what's going on. You look at 363 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: the past patterns themselves, maybe other running the running game itself. 364 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: See what kind of blocking schemes that they use versus 365 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: what we do now versus what everyone else do, but 366 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: what we do. Sometimes he'll have you look at the 367 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: different schemes against different teams, and he might change his scheme. 368 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: So you're talking to us as if we're as if 369 00:22:54,520 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: you're players. Players. Yes, and that's why I was good 370 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 1: for me. I came from Landry system. I mean we 371 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: had a computer papers, so I was used to studying 372 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,640 Speaker 1: in that manner. But Belichick had everyone looking at film. 373 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:11,719 Speaker 1: Of course, nowadays it's a whole lot easy. They can 374 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: just take the our paths and they could assigned a 375 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 1: certain tasks such as first intent, and they've got a 376 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: scouting department that have those plays all and all you 377 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: have to do is look at the patterns themselves, and 378 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 1: you have to present that as you come when you 379 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: come back to practice, usually on that Wednesday, I have 380 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: to present that to the entire class. Well. So that's 381 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: how he did it with the Giants, and now a 382 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 1: head coach, if he gave you that assignment, then what 383 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: are you looking at. I'm looking at the wide receivers. 384 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 1: That's all I would be looking at. As a cornerback, 385 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the wide receivers. Now, if he asked 386 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: me to look at as a safety, I have a. 387 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: Then I'd be looking at more passing downs like second 388 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: and long, because that's when I was back in the back, 389 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: I'll be looking second and long and third downs. But 390 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: if I'm at the on the back position, all I'm 391 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 1: looking at is what my wide receivers patterns look like, 392 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: what they're splits would look like, what kind of runs, 393 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: what kind of patterns they run when they're splitters type 394 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: us when it's wide combos, rubbed routes. You gotta look 395 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: at all of that stuff so you can tell you 396 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 1: can almost predict some of the routes by the splits. 397 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: You can detect a pattern the pattern. That's all you're 398 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 1: looking for is just to detect a pattern. Because here's 399 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: the thing about Belichick, and if any good coach to me, 400 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: you want to take away what we do best, that's 401 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: just it. Okay, hold on, hold on before you before 402 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: you give away Cowboys secrets. All right, just keep this 403 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 1: in mind. Okay, when when Bill Belichick puts his team together, 404 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 1: he's not only looking at their athletic ability. One of 405 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 1: the reasons Bill Belichick says Everson went up to Gil 406 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 1: Brandt at the Hall of Fame ceremony and said, Everson 407 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: Walls belongs in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It's 408 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 1: because when he coached Everson Walls, he saw how smart 409 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 1: Everson Walls is. Okay, told me so, Mickey. When he 410 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 1: sees that Everson Walls is a regular on mix Shots 411 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: this week, what what is Bill Belichick gonna do to 412 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:17,439 Speaker 1: prepare writing down notes? Exactly? He is listening now. He 413 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: is listening right now. Okay. The Patriots are not practicing today. 414 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,360 Speaker 1: This is his day to get caught up on Cowboys podcast. 415 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: He's gonna look. He looks at the menu of Cowboys 416 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: Podcast and he sees Everson Walls is on this show 417 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 1: called mix Shots. He said, I don't know who the 418 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: hell this Mick is, but I do know who Everson 419 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 1: Walls is. And I'm gonna lease now, Mickey, you just 420 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 1: set up Everson to tell Bill Belichick how he needs 421 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: to defend the Cowboys. Okay, bi man, So as you 422 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: answer this question from Mickey, keep in mind the Belichick's list. 423 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: Hey man, it doesn't matter if he's listening or not. 424 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: Because here's the thing. Any coach and Belichick has showed 425 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: me this. He wants to make you just do something different. Okay, 426 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:11,959 Speaker 1: And if you do something different, then you're just not 427 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: as comfortable. That doesn't mean that you can't adapt. We 428 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 1: have a squad here that can adapt to almost anything, 429 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: especially offensively. So that's why I'm not really worried about it. 430 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,399 Speaker 1: But when it comes down to it, he thinks that 431 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 1: he's got an upper hand on you if he shuts 432 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 1: down what you're strong at. That's why he wants to 433 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 1: see the patterns because if he can, if he can 434 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: attack those patterns of of plays, then that's when he's 435 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: gonna counter attack that. That was one of the things 436 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: that Kellen Moore pointed out yesterday about coming up with 437 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: game plans, and then he goes and then great game plan, right, 438 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: but you better be ready to adjust, right. You got 439 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 1: to have a plan B and see and and even 440 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: dan Quinnon and I wish I didn't write it down, 441 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: but he said this to effect. He said he was 442 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 1: taught talking to uh like a former upper level military guy, 443 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 1: and the guys said the guy basically said, uh something 444 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:16,920 Speaker 1: to the fact the greatest plan of attack changes at 445 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 1: first contact. So in other words, it's like Mike Tyson said, 446 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: you can have a great game when I hit you 447 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: in the mouth. Yeah, right, change, right. That's exactly so 448 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 1: with all three we are. And that's the beauty of 449 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: the team that Belichick puts together a year in and 450 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 1: year out. What the Patriots do year in and year out, 451 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,880 Speaker 1: it's their acquisition of players where they have hybrid players 452 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 1: and he can adjust his defense week to week. Some 453 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: weeks he's primarily in a four to three. Other weeks 454 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 1: he's a three four. It's a hybrid and so you 455 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: really and so he can adjust and he's got smart 456 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: players who can carry out the game plan from week 457 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 1: to week. Here here's what I saw, and I see 458 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: it to this day, especially defensively, He's gonna have some studs, 459 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: just some straight up studs. This is gonna be that. 460 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: You always had your lts. You always had your Pepper Johnson. 461 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: You always had your Linda Marshalls. Now you had your 462 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,640 Speaker 1: gil Moores, you had your linebacker, the d all those 463 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 1: guys that but you all, he always saw like a 464 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:30,239 Speaker 1: Rodney Harrison. You know that he's not that athletic, you know, 465 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 1: he just I just needed to be where he needs 466 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: to be. And I know he's gonna I can count 467 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: on him to be where he's supposed to build. You know, 468 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: Everson Walls. You know, he's got a knack force for 469 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: this and that. Not that athletic, but I can put 470 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 1: him in a particular spot to what he can do, 471 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: what he does best, and so he's always got the 472 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: studs along with those. Devin mccordy, who is it was 473 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: a first round draft pick who's now in his twelfth 474 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: year in the league. And I was about the running 475 00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: back from here, uh Burke Edwards burkheads now and yes, yes, 476 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:02,959 Speaker 1: So these are the kind of players that he just 477 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: loves to have that well, I don't feel like explaining 478 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: myself over and over again. This guy's gonna get it 479 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 1: the first time. Those are the ones that he brings in. 480 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 1: He brings as many of those as possible, so support 481 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: to support those great athletes that might not have the 482 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: experience that they need. Here's a great example, and now 483 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: Kyle Vanoy is a good athlete, but here's a great 484 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: example of how he prepares for the draft, and even 485 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: though he doesn't draft a player, when that player becomes available, 486 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: he pounces on him, especially with more experience. And like 487 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: with Kyle Vanoy, he was drafted by the Lions in 488 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, and I don't remember the circumstances, but just 489 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: a couple of years later he gets released by the Lions. Well, 490 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: the Patriots snapped him up in a heartbeat, and he 491 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: became a central figure on a couple of Super Bowl 492 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: teams for them. He goes away last year because the 493 00:29:56,040 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 1: Patriots lost Brady last year and they had several players 494 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: who opted out, and so they did not have the 495 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: same type team last year. And of course they went 496 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: seven and nine last year and Danoy went away to Miami. Well, 497 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: they decided, the Patriots decided to go ahead and put 498 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: a team together this year, and so they reacquired Kyle 499 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: van Noy and he's back on this team now this year. 500 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: And it's the compass one for the coach that the 501 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,479 Speaker 1: players know what you know what. And Quinn had another 502 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: good line I don't think I've heard before. So he says, 503 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: you you end up practicing all week, you come up 504 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: with this plan, You come up with different plays that 505 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: you want to run defensively. Right, And he goes in, 506 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 1: you get the Saturday and we're going through the different 507 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: play calls and he says, one player says, uh, coach, 508 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: can we redo that? And he goes no, never mind 509 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: it's out because if we're on Saturday and we got 510 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: to replay that call, somebody doesn't understand what's going on. 511 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: So I'm not everybody has to be on the y. Yeah. 512 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 1: I thought that that's what I thought. That was really enlightenment. Yeah, 513 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: And I think that's also one of the reasons the 514 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: Patriots miss on a lot of draft picks too, because 515 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: you have to it's a mental thing as much as 516 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: a physical thing is. And if if they get players 517 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: in there and then they discover after they've been through 518 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: an offseason with them that they're not getting it, well, 519 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: they'll just go ahead and cut their losses and move 520 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: on to somebody else, a veteran player and pick up. 521 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: And you know that's why they let Chandler Jones walk. 522 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: You look at at Chandler Jones, great player, but he 523 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: was going to cost way too much money. And so 524 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 1: for everything that Arizona paid Chandler Jones as a free agent, 525 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: you know, each year, over a five year period, the 526 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: Patriots are acquiring five different free agents for the same 527 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: amount of money they would have been paying paying one player. 528 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: And you know, the with his management had on then, 529 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: and think about the other guy and it was kind 530 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: of controversial when they let Jimmy Jamie con One's gone. 531 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: Now he's bounced a team to team to teams back 532 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: and he's back right, yeah, for like the third time, 533 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 1: so probably what they were gonna pay him. Yeah, and 534 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: he went an got some signing bonus, but he didn't. 535 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: But no one wanted to keep him after that. It 536 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 1: was almost like Belichick knew something. You know, here's what 537 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: you're worth, and I'm not what you What do you do? 538 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: Sunday against Houston his first game back with the Patriots, 539 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: Jamie Collins, I didn't see he got a sack. You 540 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: know how many defensive plays he was in on? How 541 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 1: many three? Wow? He was in on three one last 542 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 1: three three snaps and he got a sack. And that's 543 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 1: why I brought him back. That won the game. They 544 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 1: made it simple for him. There's the quarterback, just go 545 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: get him, don't worry about anything. So I mean, the 546 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: bottom line, by the way, is they do have the 547 00:32:54,480 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 1: fifth ranked defense. Uh, they're fifth overall fifty game against 548 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 1: the pass and fifteenth against the run. And that's with 549 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback. You know how tough it is to 550 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 1: play defense. After all, the interceptions that your rookie quarterback 551 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: is to win and put its Offensively, they're only ranked 552 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: twenty sixth and you know what they are and third 553 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 1: down efficiency or I'm sorry, red zone efficiency. I could 554 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: look it up, but if thirty first in the league 555 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: in the red zone, that's very unlicked with a rookie quarterback. 556 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: That's explained. And that's been one of the Cowboys defensive 557 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 1: problems by the way, the red zone. They haven't stopped 558 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: people quite enough, although they did stop on the girly 559 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: on right right, which turned that game around. And they 560 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: thought that when they acquired these two tight ends in 561 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: the offseason Hunter Henry and John who Smith, that that 562 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: might help him in the red zone. And it's still 563 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: early yet, we shall see. But when we got a 564 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback, that's it's tough. And we pointed this out, 565 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 1: I believe yesterday when everybody's like, oh, they're trying to 566 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: get Dr Bill Cox in the game more right, And 567 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: I think I don't know if it was me or 568 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: one of us said, well, yeah, he was probably second 569 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: team goal line and he got moved up to first 570 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: team because somebody was missing right. Well, Quinn said they 571 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,320 Speaker 1: asked him, so, were you trying to get him more involved? 572 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: He goes, well, he was on the second team goal 573 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: line and because of people that were missing, he got 574 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,879 Speaker 1: moved up to first team. He was very politically careful there, 575 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:26,399 Speaker 1: so yeah, he basically took Jelen Smith's place. All right, 576 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 1: how about when we come back here on mix shots 577 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: we talk about that linebacker rotation a little bit, because 578 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 1: those snaps in the game are rather interesting, following what 579 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,879 Speaker 1: the news of the last week, in fact, one week 580 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 1: ago today when the Cowboys released Jitaln Smith back with 581 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 1: more mix shots in a moment at Smoothie King, we 582 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: are blinding goodness to fuel your greatness.

Okay, Okay, eight o'clock Central 625 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 1: time on Friday on CMT, okay, MT All right, all right, 626 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 1: talking linebackers, Yes, so what do you find interesting about 627 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 1: the snap counts from the linebackers. Michael Parsons had sixty 628 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: three snaps on defense out of sixty eight. Out of 629 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: sixty eight, Kean O'Neil had thirty four, Layton vander Esh 630 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 1: had thirty one, Jabril Cox had four. Right now, jay 631 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 1: Ron Curse, your safety who will play down in the 632 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 1: box and a nickel situation once again, and Jayron Curse 633 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 1: leading away with sixty eight snaps on defense one hundred percent. 634 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: Never came off the field defensively, so what they made 635 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 1: tackle seven. So what they're doing with Curse is they're 636 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: playing them almost like playing Neil a little bit. So 637 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 1: Neil and Parsons are on the nickel. When they were 638 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: going base, it was Micah, vander ash and Curse, but 639 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: Curse was lining up kind of on the line of 640 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 1: scrimmage a lot in the slot or on the tight end. 641 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: So instead of a pure strong side linebacker, they were 642 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: using basically what they called their big nickel. And then 643 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 1: a lot of times when it was definite passing situation, 644 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: there was only one linebacker on the field, but on 645 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 1: a depth chart, they would probably list him as the 646 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 1: sam linebacker even though yeah, yeah, in that base defense, 647 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: but they probably just listed as an extra safety in 648 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: FEUs considered the one linebacker. Yes, he was in the 649 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 1: middle on the dime. Yeah, so sometimes dime they would 650 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:11,399 Speaker 1: take out a defensive lineman sometimes, but this time they're 651 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: taking out both linebackers. So the way you divvy up 652 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: those linebacker snaps amongst Neil and Layton, Layton in the 653 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 1: base got thirty one, I mean essentially thirty one snaps 654 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 1: and Keanu in the nickel with the thirty four snaps 655 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: and Parsons on the field virtually the whole time, and 656 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 1: then depending on what they decide to do on goal line, 657 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 1: and they had a couple of goal line situations. But 658 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: that's how it's got on the field. So think about 659 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 1: it then, how many snaps was if Jalen was still 660 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: on the team. How many snaps was Jaalen going to 661 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: get in that game? I mean, and where are the 662 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:52,239 Speaker 1: snaps coming from? Well, they might have had him out 663 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: there on the goal line. So there's your four Jabril 664 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,439 Speaker 1: Cox snaps. I was going to and then maybe some 665 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: maybe on big nickel could it would have been spelling somebody, 666 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 1: But as it was, Neil and vander esh were only 667 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 1: getting thirty one and thirty four snaps right themselves. Well, 668 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 1: and see here was the curious question yesterday to Quinn's 669 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 1: when somebody asked, well, uh, Micah Parsons only rushed this 670 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 1: many times? Well, I wonder who was ever counting that up? 671 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,760 Speaker 1: And I don't trust that all the time, right, because 672 00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 1: he was rushing as a middle linebacker. They had him 673 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 1: and Randy Gregory standing on the line of scrimmage in 674 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,479 Speaker 1: some of those pass rush situations, and so they didn't 675 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 1: know if he was dropping or rushing. And a couple 676 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 1: of times he went up the middle on a delayed 677 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: rush and they and they what they did is they 678 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 1: allowed the defensive lineman whoever was on that outside to 679 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 1: cave in, and then he was following around to see 680 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 1: if they missed in a signment. I think he was 681 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 1: reading the back itself. I think when the when the 682 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 1: running back blocks, then he's like he's going and I'm gone, yeah, 683 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: I just pay attention to the unless he sees he 684 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: makes sure he doesn't chip, yeah, and then he takes 685 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 1: off fields the gap. So what they were trying to 686 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 1: do is create free lanes for him, and what the 687 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,839 Speaker 1: offense is doing dictates what he's doing on a play. 688 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 1: It's not like that. Okay, we're you're blitching for sure 689 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 1: on this play. It matters what the offense is doing, 690 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 1: and he makes adjustments, right, And Quinn was very complimentary 691 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 1: of him having studied and learning the different things they're 692 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 1: asking him to do as a rookie. Where you saw 693 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 1: doing the game, who was that made the comments saying 694 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 1: that you know, it's putting too much mentally on his case, 695 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 1: and he says, don't worry about me. I'll be okay. 696 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:52,959 Speaker 1: It was the Twitter war you brought up. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 697 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 1: So so when you looked at it, I told you, guys, 698 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:57,279 Speaker 1: because now I finally found my paper from a pick 699 00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,839 Speaker 1: to click I had left in the car. I picked 700 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,800 Speaker 1: the grick. So I always had Parsons versus Barkley, remember 701 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,320 Speaker 1: That's what I had. So sure enough when he heard himself. 702 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 1: First of all, they started off I think he made 703 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 1: the first tackle of the game on Barkley, and then 704 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: they split him out. They split Barkley out wide and 705 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:17,880 Speaker 1: they tried to isolate him on a one on one situation. 706 00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,439 Speaker 1: I mean, we talked about that before the game, and 707 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,760 Speaker 1: so that was a good thing. Parsons, of course, uh 708 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 1: didn't cover him that well, but that's when Barkley went 709 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:30,320 Speaker 1: down because he stepped on Jordan Lewis's foot. But No 710 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 1: Parsons was was just like that was my pick. The 711 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:36,319 Speaker 1: click too, by the way, was Parsons just coming up 712 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: with this? And I also have digs with question marks 713 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,360 Speaker 1: down here. So once again I'm going back over my 714 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,600 Speaker 1: pick the clicks. I'm trying to salvage sometimes my reputation. 715 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:52,279 Speaker 1: But No Parsons had a great game. And our linebackers themselves, 716 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 1: when you look at it, they are our when the 717 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 1: pressure gets up on the offense. When when when offense 718 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:02,880 Speaker 1: we've scored and we put the opposing offense in a 719 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 1: particular situation where they have to come back and score 720 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 1: quickly because they know they can't keep up. It's like 721 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,320 Speaker 1: Quinn has a clock in his head and he's like, Okay, 722 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 1: this is the time to dial it up. And that's 723 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:18,839 Speaker 1: when he starts putting in our host of hybrid linebackers 724 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 1: in any package that he can think of. And that's 725 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:23,959 Speaker 1: when you start seeing Parsons lined up all over the place. 726 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 1: You see Randy Gregory I still see as a linebacker. 727 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: You still you have Randy Greb You're making his moves 728 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 1: on the outside, and they were running so many stunts 729 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 1: and fake stunts. The offensive line just couldn't keep up. 730 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:40,360 Speaker 1: So to echo what you just said, that first possession, 731 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:46,320 Speaker 1: Barkley up the middle, Parsons O DIGGI Zoo with the tackles. 732 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 1: Second play was in Jones scrambled. The tackle was made 733 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 1: by Curse. He's already on the field right next play 734 00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:01,040 Speaker 1: Barkley left guard Vander esh makes the tackle. Who had 735 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,440 Speaker 1: a good game, by the way. Yes, Then there was 736 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 1: an incomplete pass. They went deep to John Ross and 737 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:12,360 Speaker 1: then on third down he threw incomplete to Tony and 738 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 1: the guy covering him at that time Michael Persons. Now, 739 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 1: next possession three, Barkley incomplete on a quick slant. That 740 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,839 Speaker 1: was when he got hurt right and then partook guarding him. 741 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 1: He had to line up outside like a cornerback. Booker 742 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: up the middle for one yard. It was Hooker and 743 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 1: then on third down incomplete to Golladay. Digs and Parsons 744 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 1: on the play. So they had to adjust to what 745 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 1: the Cowboys were doing, right because of what how he 746 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 1: was playing as linebackers and Curse, who was kind of 747 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 1: the wild card. One of these times we're going to 748 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 1: have an offensive coordinator like Kellen Moore that we're gonna 749 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:55,879 Speaker 1: have to deal with. I think that's going to be 750 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 1: kind of weird. I don't know if there's anybody out there, 751 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 1: you guys know OC's better than I would. But when 752 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,319 Speaker 1: you look at what Callamore did in the game, he 753 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,880 Speaker 1: came by the first quarter with five wide receivers, yeah, 754 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 1: five wife receivers, and he handed off to the CD lamb. 755 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,560 Speaker 1: So if you're if you're the Patriots, how do you 756 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 1: prepare for that? I saw him again. They came up 757 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,799 Speaker 1: with McGovern was at tight end and that's when, uh, 758 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:23,840 Speaker 1: but it shows that there was they shifted wrong and 759 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 1: it was in legal formation right. McGovern ended up with 760 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 1: nine offensive snaps. He put him in a tight end 761 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 1: and and and it was it was like it was 762 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: on the field a lot. He was like the second 763 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: tight end yeah, yeah, not the third, the second he 764 00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 1: was the second and then fullback. Hm. That was crazy. 765 00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 1: So there, yeah, there. So when I talked, I talked 766 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,359 Speaker 1: about the creative. If we come up against someone with 767 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:50,239 Speaker 1: that kind of creativity, I'm not sure how Quinn would 768 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 1: handle that. Someone with the Josh McDaniels this week. Is 769 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 1: he that good? Well, well, not only is he that good, 770 00:45:56,600 --> 00:46:00,040 Speaker 1: does he have the talent right to make you to 771 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 1: make you feel them? So they'll they'll face Kansas City. 772 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:08,160 Speaker 1: So they've been pretty good offensively Vegas and New Orleans, 773 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 1: and I'm not worried about how good they are offensive 774 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,920 Speaker 1: and how creative they are right offensively, that's what I'm 775 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 1: looking at. And then the team, it has a lot 776 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 1: to do with their uh, the experience at the quarterback 777 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 1: position too. Of course they can do and so and 778 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 1: that's that's what That's why I'm not worried about. That's 779 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 1: where New England's hand up. Yeah, with this with with 780 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:32,720 Speaker 1: Mac Jones this week and then uh, but it's gonna happen. 781 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 1: It's gonna happen. We're gonna come up against an offense 782 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,239 Speaker 1: that's gonna make us look as goofy as we've been 783 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 1: making other defenses look. And I'd like to see how 784 00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 1: we handle that situation. This game here a role game 785 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 1: situation that you cannot predict. It's going to be tough 786 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,680 Speaker 1: to predict right how we react, especially going up against 787 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:57,239 Speaker 1: the Belichick style of a team. Bet he's got some 788 00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,759 Speaker 1: idea that he's got some ideas on offer too, right 789 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 1: to help out. He's got the offense. He's Tom Landry. 790 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:07,799 Speaker 1: He could do offense, defense, special teams. He knows all 791 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 1: about every facet of the game. You just don't catch 792 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,359 Speaker 1: those guys around like that anymore. Go ahead and tell 793 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 1: it real quick, my Belichick story. The first time I 794 00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:19,080 Speaker 1: ever talked to him when I didn't know, I probably 795 00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 1: wasn't supposed to talk to him. I think it was okay. 796 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:28,319 Speaker 1: It was with the Giants. With the Giants, Yeah, yeah, yeah, 797 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,400 Speaker 1: we're probably about the same ye, right. Uh. And I 798 00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:34,839 Speaker 1: was in the locker room, which was an interesting day 799 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 1: because the first time I was around the New York media. 800 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:43,040 Speaker 1: And so they had their in New York h and 801 00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,759 Speaker 1: they had their little session with Parcels. Right. So he 802 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:51,399 Speaker 1: sits on this big kind of one of those long tables, right, 803 00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:54,399 Speaker 1: and he's at the head of course, right, and and 804 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 1: these guys they're they're all like asking the same question, right, 805 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 1: And somebody asked a question and Parcel's like, now, why 806 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:06,120 Speaker 1: would you ask something like that? Right, just intimidates the 807 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:09,480 Speaker 1: hell out of the guy. Right. And I'm sitting there going, oh, 808 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 1: this is good. Right. So I didn't know better. I 809 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 1: went into the locker room when we were allowed to 810 00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:20,759 Speaker 1: be in there, and everybody was looking for Taylor, right, 811 00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,919 Speaker 1: and he comes in late, and like you know, the King, 812 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:27,520 Speaker 1: and everybody's around Lawrence, and so I was just standing 813 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 1: there and Belichick comes walking by, and I asked him 814 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,400 Speaker 1: something about the defense and how well they were playing, 815 00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 1: because I think that, if I remember right, it was 816 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 1: the game that both teams were tied for first six 817 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 1: and two six and two, right, and you go up 818 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 1: to New York, and then Danny got hurt, and so 819 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 1: I started asking him questions and I didn't know that 820 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 1: no one talked to him, and he answered my question right. 821 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 1: I got two questions in and Parcels kind of looking 822 00:48:55,520 --> 00:49:01,839 Speaker 1: at me, and he goes, you're not from around here, no, sir, 823 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:04,040 Speaker 1: I said, uh, you know, and told him where I 824 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,040 Speaker 1: was from, and I'm here doing stories and goes, oh, 825 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:09,439 Speaker 1: are you waiting for now? And I said, I said, 826 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 1: shouldn't you be leaving now? I said Phil Simms? And 827 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,360 Speaker 1: he goes, oh, so you think Sims a pretty good quarterback? 828 00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:17,920 Speaker 1: Hunt You might be smarter than these other guys around 829 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 1: And he said it loud enough. The best he is 830 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 1: the best, the best. He is the best. I'm sorry. 831 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 1: And after that day, it's like, I like this guy, 832 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:35,280 Speaker 1: and that's what I like about it, because he's thick skinned. Yeah, 833 00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 1: you know, you as a player, you can come up 834 00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:40,879 Speaker 1: and he wouldn't admonish you for being comfortable around him. 835 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:43,279 Speaker 1: Right back in the day, that was a weird thing. 836 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:45,319 Speaker 1: And so I love, like I said, I love being 837 00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:47,480 Speaker 1: he's setting in the steamboom with us and try to 838 00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: lose weight. I told you about that one, and you know, 839 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:53,880 Speaker 1: and he can. From my memory rights that must have 840 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:58,399 Speaker 1: looked I can't, you can't, so you must. You're you're 841 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:00,800 Speaker 1: with me now, you know, And that was their breakout. 842 00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 1: You're right, because he was under fire because he hadn't 843 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:05,360 Speaker 1: really done much. I guess eighty five was not a 844 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,840 Speaker 1: bad season we had. I think in eighty six is 845 00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 1: when we had the maybe it was eighty seven. We 846 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:14,719 Speaker 1: had the silver Anniversary Cowboy team. I made that team, 847 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:16,439 Speaker 1: and I remember standing on the podium.
