Speaker 6: Man, I flew on Christmas for the first time, so

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 6: that was interesting. How was that honestly the exact same

26
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 6: that it normally is, except there must have been less

27
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 6: people out in the flight because I got upgraded first class.

28
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: Hey sappy about that?

29
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 3: About that? You told them who you are?

30
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:34,199
Speaker 1: Yeah?

31
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 3: I did a lesson here, y'all.

32
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: No, but I thought that.

33
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 3: I don't know.

34
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 6: I thought it was going to be more of a hassle,

35
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 6: and it was actually pretty easy to fly.

36
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 2: Is that maybe because everybody's already where they need to

37
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 2: be by Christmas Day?

38
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 5: Is it the day before and day after?

39
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 3: That's more of the day after. It has to be terrible. Yeah,

40
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 3: today has to be terrible. Yeah, I'm sure.

41
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: I would think that's the reason.

42
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's probably what it is. That's good. Yeah. Yeah,

43
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 3: So I had to fly on Christmas Day? We got

Speaker 7: I got my my soccer players got them a ball launcher,

54
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,120

Speaker 2: On Sunday, we walked in for pregame and I walk

116
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 2: in and there's this just a it's.

117
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 3: Almost like a sled Like it's like a sled full.

118
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 3: It's like a furniture mover full of boxes of diapers. Yeah,

119
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 3: there were four.

120
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 2: Massive boxes of diapers and he put a little note

121
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 2: on top of it.

122
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 3: He said, don't open until Christmas Day. I was like,

123
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 3: all right, that's awesome. It was fun. It was great.

124
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 3: So lots of fun over the weekend. Let's talk about

125
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 3: some news and notes. Though.

126
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 2: The Cowboys fall twenty two to twenty to the Dolphins,

127
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 2: an unfortunate break for them as they.

128
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 5: Really had chances throughout the game to win.

129
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 2: It will dive deeper into that in a moment, but

130
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 2: first let's hit what's happened since then?

131
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, I mean Jerry's was on the radio this morning,

132
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 6: So just with that, I would think the biggest things

133
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 6: are the injury updates. He said that Tyron Smith got

134
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 6: an injection last week, so I'm thinking that some type

135
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 6: of a something in his back to kind of loosen

136
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 6: things up, and that he was pretty hopeful that he'll

137
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 6: be able to play Saturday against Detroit because he got

138
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 6: that injection.

139
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 1: Not as positive on the Jonathan Hankins front.

140
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 6: Jonathan Hagen said in the locker room last week, I

141
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 6: mean he thought Detroit was a good target date. He's

142
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 6: from Detroit. He really wants to playing this game. Jerry's

143
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 6: not ruling him out, but he's just not as certain

144
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 6: about Jonathan Hankins. Jerry did say he thinks rookie Mazzie

145
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 6: Smith has been coming on.

146
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 1: We can get to that and a little bit.

147
00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 6: Later still Bury Jerry Jones and being super optimistic about

148
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 6: the team's chances of making a deep playoff run, saying

149
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 6: some of the same stuff he's been saying for the

150
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 6: last few weeks of how he wouldn't trade positions with

151
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 6: anybody else, which I don't know about that.

152
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: I think if you get that one seed.

153
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 6: And the way this team's been playing at home, to

154
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:18,679
Speaker 6: have that all throughout the playoffs.

155
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: I think you'd rather have that.

156
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 6: But he does say that his biggest reason of optimism

157
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 6: is is Dak Prescott and the way he's been playing.

158
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 6: But this one's the most interesting one that I know

159
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 6: we'll get into a little bit just because of the

160
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 6: fact that Mike has been so vocal about it and

161
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 6: it's just him not drawn to holding call since October.

162
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 6: And I'm not going to read everything that Jerry said,

163
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 6: I'll just kind of sum it up, and it was

164
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 6: basically that he's saying similar things to what Mike has

165
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 6: said last week, and that's reps are making judgment calls

166
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 6: on if a player is being held, but they weren't

167
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 6: going to be able to make that play, then they're

168
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 6: not calling that as much. So and what Jerry brings

169
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 6: up and what Micah brings up is that, well, he's

170
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 6: a free and so you shouldn't be judging him on

171
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,039
Speaker 6: the same thing that you're judging other edge rushers, you know.

172
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 6: And so I think that that that's something that you know,

173
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 6: Jerry mentioned when Steven being on the competition committee, maybe

174
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 6: it's something they look at in the offseason. I just

175
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 6: know the teams that have the top edge rushers all

176
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 6: are kind of complaining about this, you know, like whether

177
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 6: you talk about like a Miles Garrett at Aiden Hutchinson,

178
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 6: you know, the bosas like it's just something where they

179
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 6: don't want it to be judgment cause if a guy's

180
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 6: being held, call it even if he is a little

181
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 6: bit away from the play. That that for maybe another

182
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 6: player that I won't name because I don't want to

183
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 6: take any shots at anybody, but like for Michaeh Parsons,

184
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 6: Michael Parsons can make that play.

185
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 8: You know.

186
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 6: My whole thing in all this is that let me

187
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 6: just state at the beginning that I do think that

188
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 6: this team over the last few years complains.

189
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: Way too much about the officials.

190
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 6: Let me just start with that, so I don't want

191
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 6: to sound like somebody that just oh blameing officials for everything,

192
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 6: because I think I think that that's been an issue.

193
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 3: Isaiah's talked about this.

194
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 2: I remember you bringing this up in twenty twenty Toach

195
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 2: McCarthy was, yeah.

196
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that there might be a little bit

197
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: behind the scenes.

198
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 6: I don't know this as a fact, but I feel

199
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 6: like just from off the last few years that there

200
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 6: is kind of almost a rallying cry being told to

201
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 6: the players as in, it's us against the world, it's

202
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 6: us against that team, the other opponent, the rafts, everything,

203
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 6: And I don't know that I love that, So I

204
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 6: just want that to be stated first before I say

205
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 6: what I'm about to say. It's ridiculous to have somebody's

206
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 6: talented as Micah Parsons to favor right now to be

207
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 6: Defensive Player of the Year in the NFL not have

208
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 6: a single holding call since October's That's ridiculous, Like there's

209
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 6: just there's no way that that is possible, you know.

210
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 6: And I'm not sitting here saying that he needs to

211
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 6: get all the calls that let's say, like Michael Jordan

212
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 6: or Lebron James doing their prime, but he needs to

213
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 6: get more calls. He deserves the benefit of the doubt

214
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 6: because of the type of player he is. And again,

215
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 6: I covered the Dallas Cowboys, so I'm speaking about Micah.

216
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 6: But you can say the same thing like I said

217
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 6: Miles Garrett and Hutchinson. Some of these freak elite edge rushers,

218
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 6: like I get what Mica is saying that they don't

219
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 6: want you to wrect the game because they wanted to

220
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 6: be an offensive game, you can let a couple of

221
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 6: these go and let a guy have two three sacks,

222
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 6: and because to be honest with you, none were called

223
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 6: in that game and for most of that game. If

224
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 6: you weren't a fan of the Dolphins or Cowboys, let's

225
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 6: not act like. That game was just so entertaining and

226
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 6: it was just so great and the NFL just did

227
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 6: such a great job with the two top offenses in

228
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 6: the NFL. There was plenty in that game where you

229
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 6: were just like, if you if you respect the game

230
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 6: and you just watch as a fan that knows football,

231
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 6: you appreciate it because you know, those are two of

232
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 6: the top teams the NFL going at it, so whatever

233
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 6: the score is is another thing. But to sit there

234
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 6: and say that we got to make it so offensive

235
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 6: first that we can't allow freak edge rushers to do

236
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 6: their thing, I think that that's an issue.

237
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you think? I concur I believe that. Sorry,

238
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 3: I think that might get off up like this gets

239
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 3: you that rile though. Now I'm not one to point

240
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 3: the finger at the referees. I hate that.

241
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 7: But there is some facts of that, right, There's some

242
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,719
Speaker 7: some reality to the fact that Mike is getting held substantially,

243
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 7: and it's unfortunate he's not getting the calls. Frustration is warranted.

244
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,839
Speaker 7: People are talking about how he needs to pull off

245
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 7: on the quarterback.

246
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 3: Like when you're.

247
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 7: Getting held play after play after play, you're winning your

248
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,839
Speaker 7: assignment play after play after play, and the only reason

249
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 7: why you're not making the plays because you're being held

250
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 7: and it's not being called. When you finally get to

251
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,680
Speaker 7: the quarterback, Oh, he's gonna pay for it. He's gonna

252
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 7: pay for it. So you know, shout out to Micael

253
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 7: for continue to fight. This dude won his assignment. He

254
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 7: probably scored eighty percent on his on pass rushes. I mean,

255
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,719
Speaker 7: his dude's all over the place of the other night,

256
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 7: and you know, shout out to him and trying his

257
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 7: best to keep his head cool and trying to let

258
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 7: you know, Jerry and everybody else handle the political.

259
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 3: Side of it.

260
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 7: But it has to be beyond frustrating when when you're

261
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 7: literally beating people play in and play out and you're

262
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 7: not getting the call.

263
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 3: That's god.

264
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 7: I mean, it has to be absolutely frustrating. And for

265
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 7: people who don't understand it, I just flip it out

266
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 7: and say ceedee lamb goes out there, gets ten, gets

267
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 7: ten ballster on his way, he only catches two because

268
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 7: on the other eight he was being held and none

269
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 7: of those were called p I like Erabody would be

270
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 7: losing their mind right now. They should be the same

271
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 7: way that they feel in regards to Micah.

272
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 6: And I'm not sitting here saying that you know they

273
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 6: need to call you know, oh, every time Michael Parsons play,

274
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 6: there's going to be four or five holding calls a game.

275
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 6: But I'm gonna tell you this right now, just one.

276
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 6: I don't think you need to see. Now, this isn't

277
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 6: a holding, yeah, But I don't think you need to

278
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 6: watch that game and see anymore than the Deshaun Elliott

279
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 6: play on the goal line against Tony Pollard to show

280
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 6: you how one play can make such a huge difference

281
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 6: in the entire game. So if it's just a drive,

282
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 6: maybe one of those field goal drives is a punt, yeah,

283
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 6: because of the holding call. And it talk about the fifty.

284
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 2: Yard field goals, like one sack there takes them completely

285
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 2: out of field goal rank. I like when you brought

286
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:44,199
Speaker 2: up about you have to look at the player at

287
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 2: the same time, And I mean these officials.

288
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 3: They study as much as anybody.

289
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 2: I mean, they know the rule book, they know the players,

290
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 2: they know the teams, The teams know the officials. At

291
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 2: the same time, there's ways that you can still have

292
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 2: the back of the mind and say that's Michael Parsons.

293
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 2: He can make that play as opposed to this other

294
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 2: guy that that's still an NFL player, but there's no

295
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 2: way he's getting this, but Michah Parsons can get there.

296
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 7: Yeah, they're very true, but I don't think that should

297
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 7: ever be taken into an account on a decision to

298
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 7: make of a throw flag or not. If it's a foul,

299
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 7: it's a foul, right, Yeah, I mean, like take the

300
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,319
Speaker 7: player out of it. You should be able to you

301
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 7: should be able to have to go blind folded with

302
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 7: you know, in terms of the player, in terms of number,

303
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,079
Speaker 7: and just say okay, that's a holding call.

304
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 3: So we need to change the mindset.

305
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, across the board, because a lot of times when

306
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 7: MICA's being held it's not even him coming from the outside,

307
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 7: it's him coming from the intense and so like he's

308
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 7: beating centers, he's beating guards, and these guys don't have

309
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 7: the lateral agility to be able to keep up with him,

310
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 7: so all they can do is hold. So he's literally

311
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 7: running through arms to try to get to quarterbacks and

312
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 7: it's blatant. You know, it'd be one thing it was like,

313
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 7: I don't know, but these are blatant holds. So I

314
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 7: mean he has a legitimate case. I hate the fact

315
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,079
Speaker 7: that this is a conversation, but they do have to

316
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 7: make some alterations. And to your point, it's not just Micah,

317
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 7: but Micah is probably actually, I'll say it, Micah is

318
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,199
Speaker 7: the most explosive defensive player in the NFL, and it's

319
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 7: very difficult to stay in front of him, especially when

320
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 7: dan Quinn's literally drawing up man on man matchups for him.

321
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 6: Do you think, with them not having drawn any holding

322
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 6: calls since October, you think composing teams like it's a

323
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 6: coaching point where it's like, hey, the stud's a freak.

324
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 6: If he beats you grab them a little bit. They're

325
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 6: not calling it, So just grab him a little bit

326
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 6: if you have to. We know that you're not gonna

327
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 6: be able to stand.

328
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,839
Speaker 7: Well, that's what coaches are saying anyway, right, if he's beating,

329
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 7: you like grabbing him, we rather have a holding call

330
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 7: than him hitting our quarterback.

331
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 3: You see how hard to hit Tua. Yeah, like Tua's

332
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 3: soul feels that today.

333
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 2: Look at last night against the Ravens and the forty

334
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 2: nine Ers, Trent Williams gets out, leaves the game.

335
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 5: In the fourth quarter.

336
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:41,839
Speaker 2: The offensive line for the forty nine Ers all of

337
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 2: a sudden struggling. A couple of plays later, brock Perty

338
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 2: gets hit and he's out of the game.

339
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 3: And then Sam Darnold has to.

340
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 7: You rather hold than give up the same thing on

341
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 7: a on a touchdown, right, if you're a defensive back

342
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 7: and you get beats, like, grab this joke, grab him.

343
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 3: There's nobody if you don't have any over the.

344
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 7: Top hill, grab this joker and hopefully don't get the flag,

345
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 7: but if you do, we're okay with that because it's

346
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 7: not a touchdown.

347
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

348
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:03,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, It's just crazy.

349
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 6: How the value of Lane Johnson, Trent Williams, Tyron Smith

350
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 6: on these downe the three top teams the NFC, and

351
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 6: obviously people that follow the NFL know they're good players,

352
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 6: but their value is probably people don't respect it as

353
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 6: much as they probably should, just how important they are

354
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 6: to the rest of the team and Obviously we'll get into,

355
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 6: you know, not having Tyrant in the game. But yeah,

356
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 6: that was it from Jerry, you know, not he was

357
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 6: not firing Brimstone ripping anybody. This is their first time

358
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 6: that they've lost two games in a row since Thanksgiving

359
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 6: twenty twenty one. So I tuned in like I always do,

360
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 6: but I did not expect him to be just ripping

361
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 6: people and things like that. It's not really his style

362
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 6: when it's late in the season like this. So but yeah,

363
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 6: those are probably highlights from it.

364
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and before we get into the game itself. In

365
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 3: terms of the loss, it.

366
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 2: Does affect playoff positioning, but not as much as any

367
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 2: other loss would because this was to an AFC team.

368
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 2: It does not affect any of the conference tiebreaker, the

369
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 2: divisional tiebreaker, and it does not affect the common opponent

370
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 2: time breaker because if Philly were to lose again anyways,

371
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 2: they would get that game back because Philly did beat Miami,

372
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 2: so right now they own that tiebreaker.

373
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 5: But if they lose one of those.

374
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 2: Other games, that means either both teams lost to Arizona

375
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 2: or they lost to New York and Dallas didn't, so

376
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 2: they would regain that tiebreaker again.

377
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 3: They still need.

378
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 5: Philly to lose.

379
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 3: That's ultimately what it comes down to.

380
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 2: You can't win the division now by winning out and

381
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 2: hopefully having the strength of victory, so it takes the

382
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 2: strength of victory possibility away.

383
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 5: It also pretty much.

384
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 2: Negates you from the top seed in the NFC as well,

385
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 2: even with San Francisco losing last night, because you lose

386
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 2: a week to try and catch up to San Francisco,

387
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 2: so that's out of the question as well. The division

388
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 2: still intact, the two seed still intact, because you would

389
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 2: defeat the Lions this week in order to get there.

390
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 2: So I mean, if you win your final two games,

391
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 2: you need the same result in order to win the division.

392
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 2: So it doesn't change a whole lot other than some

393
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 2: of those little minuscule things into terms of the playoffs

394
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 2: seating as well. All right, when we come back here

395
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 2: on Talking Cowboys, let's dive into the offensive side of

396
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 2: the ball. Like John said, Tyron Smith, the value is there.

397
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 2: How did they look up front? How did Dak Prescott

398
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 2: look in the twenty two to twenty loss to Miami

399
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 2: on Sunday more Talking Cowboys.

400
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 9: Right after this, Todd thought it would be secure to

401
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 9: jog in the Cheatah Savannah Todd believed the big Cat

402
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 9: repellent he bought online was reliable, and now Todd is

403
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 9: trying to be faster than this cheetah that can run

404
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 9: eighty miles per hour. But the good news is Todd

405
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 9: has at and T five G. It is fast, reliable,

406
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 9: and secure, and he learned the best thing to do

407
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 9: is stop running and toss her the backpack with the

408
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 9: beef stew at and T five G. Fast, reliable, secure.

409
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:42,640

Speaker 13: let's hear from my next caller.

437
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:55,719

Speaker 13: one's easy, I say, give her a delicious doctor pepper.

Speaker 13: Nothing says thanks, gu better than one of a kind soda. Yes,

Speaker 13: any doctor Pepper flavor will do. Now, just a reminder

444
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 13: that I don't need to be a real doctor to

00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 13: know that Doctor Pepper is the one you deserve.

446

Speaker 3: I sure did not? Oh no, I know.

455

Speaker 5: what you have deering games.

466
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 7: We're driving to my facility so my kids could test

467
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 7: out that machine. And somebody had their car stopped working,

468
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 7: so I got out and helped push their car.

469
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:17,400
Speaker 3: So I got I burned some galleries. They counts. Yeah,

470
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 3: did they there was a whole vehicle now here. Look,

471
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go push this car. Yeah, it was a

472
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 3: whole vehicle, you know.

473
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 7: Yes, well my wife was actually my wife was like

474
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 7: stop the car. I'm hopping out. I'm like, actually I'll

475
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 7: get out. You stay, you stay right here, I'll go

476
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 7: do it. The uh Was.

477
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 3: It like the crowded kid popped the glud ude? My wife,

478
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 3: she always was be number one. I'm like, just.

479
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 2: The uh, the the individual that you help out.

480
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 3: Did they immediately like when they saw you get out

481
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 3: of the car.

482
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 2: Did they say, oh, my gosh, that's Isaiah stand back

483
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 2: from Washington.

484
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 3: They thought I was Jesse. Holly, ah, Jess, it's a black.

485
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 2: It is really funny how many times we'll go out

486
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,719
Speaker 2: to the stadium, will be like about to do our

487
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 2: pregame show, and.

488
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:06,120
Speaker 3: They'll be like Jesse, Jesse, Like, no, as Isaiah, Guy, Isaiah,

489
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 3: that's wrong.

490
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: It happens a lot.

491
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 3: Oh, it happens a lot.

492
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, asked Jesse too, because it happens both ways too.

493
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 2: Jesse gets called Isaiah's.

494
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. It's not great.

495
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, let's get into this matchup twenty two

496
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,719
Speaker 2: twenty for the Dallas Cowboys. If you have a text

497
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 2: question or you want to you want to be a

498
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 2: part of the show eight one seven, two nine zero

499
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:27,920
Speaker 2: three two nine eight.

500
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 3: We've got the text lines open right now. We'll answer

501
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 3: some of those questions.

502
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 2: But I wanted to start on the offensive side of

503
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 2: the football. The offensive line certainly had their struggles to

504
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,640
Speaker 2: Madoga had left tackle Tyron Smith out with the back injury,

505
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,640
Speaker 2: and it didn't look great, Isaiah.

506
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,120
Speaker 3: When you looked at how the.

507
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 2: Game progressed behind the offensive line, was it enough to

508
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 2: build confidence even if Tyron Smith's not available moving forward?

509
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,719
Speaker 3: I guess it depends on the opponent. That defensive line

510
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 3: is solid.

511
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 7: Now, I mean, you can't look at that defensive line

512
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 7: and think that they're the same that you're going to

513
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,919
Speaker 7: face week in the week out. Now, teams that you're

514
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:09,719
Speaker 7: going to play facing the playoffs, yeah, the most likely

515
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,159
Speaker 7: they'll have d line similar. But that's the third best,

516
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,360
Speaker 7: statistically speaking, best defensive line in the game of football

517
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,919
Speaker 7: in terms of pressure rate. Those guys are only two

518
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 7: notches down from Dallas, and we know how much Dallas

519
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 7: puts a heat on the opponent. So they struggled, and

520
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 7: they mean collectively, they struggled. You know, Tyrone's presence was

521
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,159
Speaker 7: missed dearly. You know, if we talked about it going

522
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,239
Speaker 7: into the week, if Tyron wasn't going to be able

523
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:34,959
Speaker 7: to play, Bradley Chubbs is going to be, you know,

524
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 7: lacing up his shoes.

525
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 3: You know.

526
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 7: I think I said on the pregame show, he probably

527
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:39,199
Speaker 7: zipped tied him so he didn't have the time in

528
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 7: the middle of the game.

529
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 3: He just he was excited and he had a day.

530
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 3: He had a field day.

531
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 7: And that's the real expectation though, I mean that's to

532
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 7: ask Trumanny Doga to stop Bradley Chubb playing a playout

533
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 7: is an unrealistic expectation. It's just it's two different levels

534
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,399
Speaker 7: of talent. That's no knock on him, It's just some

535
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 7: players are better than others, and he is substantially beneath

536
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 7: Bradley Chubb and that whole entire defensive line Wilkins. Wilkins

537
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 7: causes havoc. I mean, there were those guys wore running

538
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 7: around now they are office A line fought, but Dak

539
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 7: was fighting for his life literally play in and play out,

540
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 7: and Tool was fighting for his life on the flip side. Right,

541
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 7: but like Dak was fighting for his life. So shout

542
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 7: out to Dak for extending plays and making it hard

543
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,199
Speaker 7: on them to get him down. But it was a

544
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 7: battle up front, man, And like you said, you missed,

545
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 7: you missed a big boy on the left side.

546
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, Chubb was pretty vocal running to the locker room

547
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 6: after the game. It was funny because you know, you

548
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 6: get so focused on covering the team that you know

549
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,159
Speaker 6: that you cover that sometimes you forget about the some

550
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 6: of the storylines for the other teams. And he was

551
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 6: just running in the locker room yelling about because I

552
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 6: was the only Cowboys report of there. There were a

553
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 6: couple of other people that cover the Dolphins, but you

554
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 6: got to kind of walk by their locker room to

555
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 6: get to the Cowboys. I'm like, oh, let me just

556
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 6: stop here and see them running or whatever. Yeah, and

557
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 6: he was yelling about how I thought.

558
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 3: He said we couldn't beat a good team.

559
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 1: None of you thought we could be a good team.

560
00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 1: Know what you're gonna say now write that in your

561
00:22:58,680 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 1: little articles.

562
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 6: I'm just like, I'm not gonna write that, but okay,

563
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 6: this is interesting to see this. Also, you had a

564
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 6: good game, but it also helps if maybe somebody blocks

565
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 6: you and they don't just let you run free. But anyway,

566
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 6: to your point, though, I think he was very happy

567
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 6: about those opportunities. Man, I hate to just give you

568
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 6: such a blanket statement, but I don't see any way

569
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 6: this team makes a deep playoff run if they're missing

570
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 6: any of those starting that best five offensive line, any

571
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 6: of them. Obviously, Tyron is ridiculously important left tackle. You know,

572
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 6: when they've been together, he's been playing great, him and

573
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 6: Tyler together. But I think any of those starting five,

574
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 6: there's just such a drop off that I might be

575
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 6: you might be able to go to you know, Tampa

576
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 6: or New Orleans or Atlanta or something like that, but

577
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 6: you're not gonna beat like a San Francisco or Detroit

578
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,679
Speaker 6: or Philadelphia on the road without one of those unless

579
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,159
Speaker 6: there are those teams are decimated by injuries, which is

580
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 6: obviously a possibility. But sure if if they're relatively healthy,

581
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 6: and the Cowboys look like they'll be relatively healthy, they

582
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,719
Speaker 6: need that that that best five. There's just too much

583
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 6: of a drop off to whoever the person is. You know,

584
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 6: people talk about, oh, maybe you need to make Chiuma

585
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,959
Speaker 6: be the left guard and then Tyler Smith, the left tackle.

586
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 6: I still think there would have been issues there too.

587
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 3: There.

588
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 1: How do you feel about that? For people that say

589
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: that anyway, By.

590
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 7: The way, no, it's too late Okay, I would have

591
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 7: been in agreeance with that early on.

592
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 3: It's too late now.

593
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,120
Speaker 2: So if you had practice reps, I mean you're talking

594
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 2: about two practices a week and it's really more like

595
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 2: one and a half.

596
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 3: This is probably a loaded question, but I want to

597
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 3: ask it anyway.

598
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 7: Load up of those starters, and based upon who backs

599
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 7: them up, who would you rather not have if you

600
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 7: had to pick somebody to not play, so like, based

601
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:38,719
Speaker 7: upon their backups.

602
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 5: If God came down himself and said, you choose one

603
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 5: guy to miss the rest of the season, yep, based

604
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:47,119
Speaker 5: upon their backup.

605
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 3: I hate that, but.

606
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,360
Speaker 6: I gotta I'm probably leaning Terrence Steele. And the only

607
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 6: reason I say it is because I don't know what

608
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:53,920
Speaker 6: they got snapping the ball.

609
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 1: If they don't, they just don't.

610
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 6: There has not been really anybody that you trust that

611
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 6: backup center for a while.

612
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,640
Speaker 3: So that's center. Definitely can't afford to center.

613
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, Tyler right guard?

614
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 6: My guards, you know, if I think if I'm senting

615
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 6: my guards are Tyler Smith and Zach Martin.

616
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 3: I so who comes in for Tyler?

617
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 7: I mean if it comes there for Terrence, probably Trumadoga,

618
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,199
Speaker 7: right tax. So that's saying this is based upon this

619
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 7: is based upon who feels in for them. Who do

620
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,360
Speaker 7: you feel most confident with if somebody had to miss?

621
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: Yeah?

622
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 2: Probably Yeah, But I mean you're talking about taking away

623
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 2: Terrence Steele as opposed to taking away Tyron Smith. And

624
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 2: if I can have Tyron Smith healthy all the way through,

625
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 2: I'm taking it because you.

626
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 7: Can see so Dak's front side is even you rather

627
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 7: have where Deck's front side.

628
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 6: There's been so many communication issues on the road that

629
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 6: concerned me that to move your center out I just

630
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 6: think leads to so many more of those.

631
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:46,400
Speaker 1: You know, TJ.

632
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,400
Speaker 3: Bass hasn't given you any confidence that right guard.

633
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,440
Speaker 7: He's not Zach Martin. I'm nobody's any of the starters. Yeah,

634
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 7: I'm saying based upon your confidence in the backup.

635
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 6: Again, I think Zach Martin's a big part of that's

636
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 6: just his play, but his but the communications stuff up.

637
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 3: There that you know, what you get out of TJ. Bass. Yeah,

638
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 3: I'm not putting them in right, I'm not taking Zach

639
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 3: Zach Martin, get it, it's just sucky could question.

640
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 7: However, the other thing about basically based upon why I

641
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 7: know about TJ. Bass, I would feel most confident with TJ.

642
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 7: Bass feeling in for Zach Martin than I would for

643
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:23,479
Speaker 7: any of the other positions.

644
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 6: Still going with Terren Steele. I'm still going with Terren Steele.

645
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 6: And we're in the playoffs now, TJ. Bass, you can

646
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 6: play right guard. I'm putting Zach out to right tackle again.

647
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 6: This a this is This isn't Week one. This is playoffs.

648
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,919
Speaker 3: I like you. I like your thinking, sir. That's the

649
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 3: second hand. I mean, last heard him.

650
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 1: I understand it. But but this is he did a

651
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 1: good job. This is the end of the end of

652
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: the season.

653
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 6: You got a guy like Zach Martin that I mean,

654
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 6: how many more years does he have left? And in

655
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 6: terms of I think he has a lot left in

656
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 6: terms of playing football, not a lot, but I mean

657
00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,879
Speaker 6: he's got years left. But how many chances do you

658
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 6: have have to have this? Because here's my thing, Like,

659
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 6: I don't just look at the Cowboys, I'm looking at

660
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 6: all of the NFL. There was a little conversation the

661
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 6: press box after between me and another reporter about that

662
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 6: who took issue with Mike McCarthy calling that a juggernaut game.

663
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 6: I go, it is a juggernaut game. Look across the

664
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 6: rest of the NFL and tell me outside of obviously

665
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,360
Speaker 6: Niners Ravens, Like, what would be a matchup that you'd

666
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 6: be like, Oh, that's just way bigger than that. Those

667
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 6: are two of the best teams, your chiefs that everybody

668
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 6: wants to let your go.

669
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: To answer all the time.

670
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 6: They're not that right now, you know, the the Bengals

671
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,440
Speaker 6: not having Joe Burrow like those those go to right now.

672
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 6: So it's like, well, okay, it's you know, you got

673
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 6: like the Ravens, the Bills, the Dolphins are right there

674
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 6: with them.

675
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 3: Yeah you know.

676
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 1: And then you go over to the NFC like what.

677
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 6: I didn't want to cut you off before the first

678
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 6: segment ended, but when you brought up the whole thing

679
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 6: about the Philadelphia thing a month ago, I'd say, this,

680
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 6: this division's done. You don't even need to play the games.

681
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 6: I watched them play the last few weeks and you're

682
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 6: just like, I mean, no, they.

683
00:27:58,440 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: Could lose one of these games.

684
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you know.

685
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 6: So because of that, there just isn't it. That was

686
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 6: a juggernaut game. Those are two of the best six

687
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 6: seven teams in the NFL.

688
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 3: YEP, I completely agree.

689
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 5: And you look at there's six or seven contenders right now,

690
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 5: and Dallas is right on the borderline of being that.

691
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,120
Speaker 2: I mean, Miami's there, Baltimore is definitely there. I think

692
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 2: if there was an AFC pick for me to win

693
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl right now, it would be the Baltimore Ravens.

694
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 6: They looked really good. Yeah, sorry to go off on that.

695
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 6: I know we're talking Zach Martin.

696
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 3: I think it's warranted.

697
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,399
Speaker 2: I think Buffalo, if they keep moving in the right direction,

698
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 2: they can maybe reinsert themselves back into that conversation, but

699
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 2: are not there yet. Cleveland not there yet. Nobody in

700
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 2: the South, nobody in the AFC West. Then you go

701
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 2: to the NFC East. Philadelphia certainly can get back to that,

702
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 2: but they're not playing well.

703
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 3: Dallas has lost two straight.

704
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 2: I mean, there's still ways that they can get back

705
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 2: into that conversation. Detroit's in that conversation, and then San

706
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 2: Francisco that's it. I mean, the Rams are playing well,

707
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 2: they can maybe get back up there, but they're not

708
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 2: there yet. There are only six or seven teams that

709
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 2: you were comp it in that could make a run

710
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 2: if they play their best football, and I think Dallas

711
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 2: if they play their best football, which includes their offensive

712
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 2: line being healthy, they can make a run.

713
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 6: If they made if they made a deep playoff run

714
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 6: that included them winning on the road, there'd be a

715
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 6: lot about talking. We would look back and talk about

716
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 6: the Buffalo game in the Miami game and how it

717
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 6: did get them. Not the Buffalo game because it was

718
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 6: such a blowout, but this Miami game about going on

719
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 6: the road and playing a tough opponent like that. Now,

720
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 6: of course they got to go and win those games

721
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 6: in the playoffs for that Dad, but I think we

722
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 6: would look back on, Man, that was a tough stretch.

723
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 6: You have to go to Buffalo with the well as

724
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 6: well they as they were playing, and then at Miami

725
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 6: uh as well. So So yeah'm moving Zach Martin the

726
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 6: right tagle.

727
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 3: That's hysterio.

728
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 5: Sorry, I like it.

729
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 2: I think it's good because I'm not moving Zach Martin

730
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 2: out of the rotation at all.

731
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 3: That's not happening.

732
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 2: Just before we move on, I feel like there was

733
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 2: a show back in Oxnar and California that was talking

734
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 2: about if if one of those starting five guys goes down, then.

735
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 3: That's kind of a problem. I forgot which show was Talk.

736
00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 2: Talk, Talking Talking Boys, Talking Talk, Talking Boy. Dak Prescott,

737
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 2: how did you feel like he played against Miami John

738
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 2: whenever you look at his stat line in the way

739
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 2: that he played twenty of thirty two, two hundred and

740
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 2: fifty three yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions. Played well, but

741
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 2: it goes back to what we were just talking about.

742
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 2: He was under pressure quite a bit.

743
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought he played like an MVP at the

744
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 6: beginning of the game and at the end of the game.

745
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 1: But there were definitely there.

746
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 6: I mean, there were some misses on some things that

747
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 6: when you watch the game over again, especially from different

748
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 6: camera angles, where you're like, yeah, well, you know, it's

749
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 6: tough to make that read when you know that you

750
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 6: don't have that much time because you're not being protected

751
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 6: like you normally are. If they had their normal offensive

752
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 6: lineup there, I just think it's a different game. They're

753
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 6: just there were guys open. You know, I'm a big

754
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 6: fource feed my star player gets, so I didn't like

755
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 6: I didn't like going away from CD there as much

756
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 6: in the second and third where I don't know this

757
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 6: to be true. This is just me taking an outside

758
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 6: look on things, and I'm not saying that there's no

759
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 6: any fact that it's just me just talking.

760
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 1: Dak is such a good dude that part.

761
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 6: Of me wonders if he's like, no, I got to

762
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 6: get more guys involved, as opposed to no, I'm just going.

763
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 1: Down the field.

764
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 6: It's me and CD all all game whatever like that.

765
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 6: I just feel like he tries to get other people.

766
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 6: There's more so than maybe some other players would.

767
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 2: Is that ever a thought process from a quarterback standpoint, Yes,

768
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 2: kind of.

769
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: I know it sounds stupid.

770
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think it's stupid. Gets a legitimate question.

771
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 1: I've never seen.

772
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 6: Well, I shouldn't say never, because there probably is a

773
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 6: game to do, but I almost never see a game

774
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 6: where it just like you just know, hey, I'm just

775
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 6: going to these one or two guys like he will.

776
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 6: He has so much trust and even guys that like

777
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 6: when we're watching the yeah, exactly, we got when we're

778
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 6: watching the game, like he's got so much trust and

779
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 6: so many players that there's plays that he'll throw.

780
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 1: To some guys.

781
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 6: I just like, man, I can't believe he would trust

782
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 6: him in that situation, but he trusts everyone that's out there.

783
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 3: Tobert went up and made up he did, he did.

784
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 7: I have a question. It's not Dak related. Okay, well,

785
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 7: I wanted to answer that last question, Dak. I think

786
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 7: Dak fought his tail off. Yeah, yeah, this game is

787
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 7: nowhere near as close if Deck doesn't do Deck things.

788
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, he kept you in the game. He's been

789
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 3: keeping you in a game.

790
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,719
Speaker 2: That drive at the end of the game, if Dallas

791
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 2: gets a defensive stop there and they win it twenty

792
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 2: to nineteen, I think that might be as that could

793
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 2: be an MVP moment.

794
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:26,239
Speaker 3: It really could have been.

795
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Now, he still would have had to play lights

796
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 2: out the last two weeks of the season.

797
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:30,479
Speaker 3: Don't get me wrong. There was a long way to go.

798
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 3: I don't think he's winning.

799
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 2: So he could have gone back and looked at that

800
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 2: that drive specifically where he kept them alive.

801
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 3: That could have been his MVP moment. It's not anymore.

802
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 3: That's that's it.

803
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: And they throw to Cooks.

804
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 6: I mean it was a great catch by Cooks, you

805
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 6: don't get me wrong, But the throw with like Rick

806
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 6: Ramsey in position and just the fact what had happened

807
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 6: right before that that had everything written on like, oh,

808
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 6: they just blew this drive the way they get on

809
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 6: the one yard line, half yard line and then run

810
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 6: that instead of just running the ball, they try and

811
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 6: roll him out and then he takes that sack.

812
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 1: You're just do you enough of these games?

813
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:02,239
Speaker 3: Was like, h here we go.

814
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, this isn't Yeah, but he overcame that. Yeah, all right.

815
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 3: What was your question?

816
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 7: Why has Tony power only averaged thirteen touches a game?

817
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 6: Again, I don't know this to be a fact, but

818
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 6: since we're just throwing stuff out there, I wonder if

819
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 6: he's all the way back to the Tony Pollard he

820
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 6: was before. I think that there's a little bit And

821
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 6: even if they were, I just keep going back to

822
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 6: this thing. Last year of that Skip Pete said about

823
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 6: how it was such a good compliment between Zeke and

824
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 6: Tony because Tony's at his best when you know, he

825
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,959
Speaker 6: is interesto, he's getting a little bit more rest, you know,

826
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 6: because then when he gets in there, he's got a

827
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 6: chance to turn those like maybe a five six year

828
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 6: gain into fifteen twenty and stuff like that. And so

829
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 6: I'm wondering if that they're trying to keep him fresh

830
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 6: during the games for those home run type abilities. You know, Like,

831
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 6: I think he's closer to where he was last year,

832
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 6: but I don't think that he's been that way all

833
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 6: season long in terms of being one hundred percent back

834
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 6: from that, you know, the broken leg, ankle injury, the

835
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 6: drop tackle one in San Francisco.

836
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 3: But I don't know.

837
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 6: I mean, do you think the running games working at

838
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:13,320
Speaker 6: a point where you want to see more touches?

839
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,360
Speaker 1: Twelve carries three point two yards per carry.

840
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:19,359
Speaker 7: He's averaging thirteen, and that's heavily weighted in a front

841
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 7: carries thirteen touches. Thirteen touches because on the front half

842
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:23,879
Speaker 7: of the season there was a couple of games where

843
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 7: he had twenty plus touches. That's really you know, kind

844
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:30,840
Speaker 7: of boostings right now. But he's I mean every postgame

845
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 7: it seemingly is like twelve touches, eleven touches, Yeah, thirteen

846
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,359
Speaker 7: touches and taking the ball. I mean, first of all,

847
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 7: everybody's looking at the hundred liftkey play right now, and

848
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 7: it should have never got there, correct, because Tony Polers

849
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 7: should have scored.

850
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 3: Let's put that out there right now, Okay, so.

851
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 2: I'd love to address that real quick. Because you watched

852
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 2: the film, you can you can go back and look

853
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 2: at it.

854
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 5: There's a there's a freeze point in that All twenty

855
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 5: two where it looks like a walking touch How is

856
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 5: it not a touchdown?

857
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:01,760
Speaker 3: Like with Tony Pollard.

858
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:02,960
Speaker 5: Tony Pollard, I.

859
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:04,800
Speaker 2: Know there's a linebacker that's scraping over the top and

860
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 2: there's a there's he comes up and he lays a hit,

861
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 2: and good play from him.

862
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:09,800
Speaker 5: But it was a weak effort.

863
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 3: It really was.

864
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 2: It was weak and Tony Pollard, as much as we

865
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 2: want to see more of him, and I agree, I

866
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 2: think he needs more touches to get into a rhythm to.

867
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 3: A certain there's accountability factor there.

868
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 2: But we've been saying, I mean, we are in week

869
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 2: seventeen and we're saying, well, we've seen glimpses of it.

870
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 2: It looks like that's the old Tony Pollard. He's done nothing,

871
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 2: nothing to show me at this point that he is

872
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 2: the old Tony Polloin one one hundred yard game this year,

873
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 2: I'm surprised there's even been one.

874
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,879
Speaker 3: One one it was Cardinals. Oh yeah, that's probably why

875
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 3: I forgot about it. Other than that the last.

876
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 7: We can go back going in reverse thirty eight yards,

877
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 7: fifty two yards, fifty nine yards, sixty eight, seventy nine,

878
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 7: sixty one, fifty five, fifty one, fifty three, thirty twenty nine,

879
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 7: and I can keep going.

880
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 5: I've been the biggest.

881
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 3: Tony Pollard supporter throughout his time here.

882
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 5: I've been big onto Tony Pollard when he was having

883
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 5: his success. I say, get him the rocket, him the rocket,

884
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 5: him a rock. Even now, I still think he's there,

885
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 5: but he has done nothing to show confidence or build

886
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 5: my confidence in what Tony Pollard can do.

887
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 3: So I'm wondering if they're saying the same. Oh well,

888
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 3: I mean they have the hole.

889
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I mean you gave nine carries to Dak

890
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:25,279
Speaker 6: No No No to Dak Ceedee Lamb Cavante, Turpin and

891
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 6: Brandon Cooks and two and they and they ran the

892
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,280
Speaker 6: ball pretty well out of those nine carries, I got

893
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 6: a little over fifty sixty yards.

894
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 3: Yeah.

895
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,839
Speaker 6: So it was just apparent to me early on when

896
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 6: they were some of the stuff they were doing the

897
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 6: run game, they were like, we're not gonna be able

898
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:43,399
Speaker 6: to get this done with our normal run game.

899
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 3: We're gonna have to do some some other.

900
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 6: Things because we have to run the football, but we

901
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 6: can't get it done doing the traditional running style. Let

902
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 6: me ask let me ask this though, do you think

903
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:57,359
Speaker 6: that is the whole season and even if you did

904
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 6: have Tyron Smith it would be the same way. Or

905
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,359
Speaker 6: do you think because Tyrant's Smith wasn't out there, they

906
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 6: went away from Tony a little bit.

907
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: I think that head of impact is this is the

908
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:04,879
Speaker 1: whole year.

909
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:05,879
Speaker 5: This is the entire year.

910
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 3: I think so too.

911
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 7: I'm every post game, you know, I sit up there

912
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 7: and say, very Chargy fils.

913
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 5: During the game, if anything, to MYDOGA is better in

914
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 5: the run game run blocking than he is pass blocking,

915
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,839
Speaker 5: So you would want to run the ball more to

916
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:20,960
Speaker 5: give Tony Pollard some of those such Yes.

917
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 3: I mean this is this is crazy.

918
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 7: Just to go t everybody type in Tony polar stat

919
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 7: to look at every game, it's just twelve, twelve, eleven, thirteen, eleven,

920
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 7: nine eight, and then you have a couple of those

921
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 7: games early on it was twenty five, twenty three in

922
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 7: twenty at three games this year where he had over

923
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,879
Speaker 7: twenty touches or more, that's it.

924
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 2: I just really I hope we see the Tony Pollard

925
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 2: of old because he's so fun man.

926
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 7: Like, that's the thing is I feel bad for the

927
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 7: last I feel.

928
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,919
Speaker 2: Bad for Cowboys fans because Tony Pollard as the number

929
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,839
Speaker 2: one back, as Tony Pollard was in the past couple

930
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 2: of years, Like he finally gets that opportunity this year.

931
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 5: I thought he had a chance.

932
00:37:59,920 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 2: To explode and just be that dude and he and

933
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,439
Speaker 2: he hasn't. He's been serviceable, he's been decent. He's done

934
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 2: some things what right. He hasn't done some things right

935
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,359
Speaker 2: on the other end. But I think we're we're at

936
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,880
Speaker 2: the moment we're not seeing that, and I don't know

937
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 2: if it'll ever come.

938
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 6: I'm telling you, man, between this and the Zeke and

939
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 6: this team's just drafting running backs from now on, Like

940
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 6: it's such a young man's game.

941
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:25,800
Speaker 3: It's crazy.

942
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:26,360
Speaker 1: That sucks.

943
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 7: But isn't it crazy how how Tony Powler is barely

944
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:33,359
Speaker 7: getting any touches, but yet Zeke is running all over

945
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 7: the place. Yeah yeahs to him like a Bill cow Yeah.

946
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

947
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 6: When I mean drafting running backs, I don't mean like

948
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,360
Speaker 6: top five pick, first roundrunning back. I mean drafting guys

949
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 6: that you know, like Tony third, fourth round.

950
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 3: Ricot free agent. Yeah, yeah, you've.

951
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 6: Got such a it's such a physical you know.

952
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a young man's game. I don't see them.

953
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 2: But before we move on from a from a running

954
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 2: game com station, have you lost trust in Hunter Lipkey?

955
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: No? No, I mean yeah, that play that play.

956
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 6: Obviously you can't have that happen in that game and

957
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 6: that that can cost you. But I just think I

958
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:14,320
Speaker 6: don't know if it's just him individually as the player,

959
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 6: or it's the fact of I don't think that they

960
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 6: can run the ball effectively against good teams traditionally, and

961
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 6: so I like having that mixed in there, because just

962
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 6: doing it the old fashioned way that they had been

963
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,400
Speaker 6: done doing it in the past before this year, I

964
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 6: didn't that's not getting it done anymore. So I think

965
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,279
Speaker 6: that you need him uh involved, and you need him

966
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 6: to be a threat to where teams think that he

967
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 6: could potentially get the ball, you know. Yeah, obviously he'd

968
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:39,799
Speaker 6: love to have that playback. That's terrible on the goal line.

969
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 6: But no, I haven't.

970
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:42,799
Speaker 3: I agree. I don't.

971
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: I'm sitting in the next seat, that's true.

972
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 2: Maybe it's where I have to I have to. I'm

973
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 2: totally going to ask him about it to because I'm.

974
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:56,200
Speaker 3: Right, right right, I agree.

975
00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 2: I don't think you should lose trust in him. It

976
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 2: was just it was a bad play. It really was.

977
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 3: All right.

978
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 2: Let's switch the ball, Let's switch to the defensive side.

979

Speaker 9: Tod thought it would be secure to jog in the

1011
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,439
Speaker 9: Cheatah Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought

1012

Speaker 9: online was reliable, and now Todd is trying to be

1013
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 9: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

1014

Speaker 9: five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he

1016
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 9: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

1017
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 9: toss her the backpack with the beef stew and five

Speaker 5: Smile of the Dallas Cowboys.

1027
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:28,440
Speaker 2: Back with John Machoda, Isaiah's stand back Chris Beam in

1028
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,440
Speaker 2: the back of Kyle Yeoman's Nick Harris out today, but

1029
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 2: he is listening, and he sent in a text to

1030
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:40,439
Speaker 2: answer Isaiah's question. If we were playing unfortunate circumstances and

1031
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,040
Speaker 2: you had to remove somebody from the offensive line for

1032
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,080
Speaker 2: the rest of the season, who would you be more

1033
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:47,359
Speaker 2: confident in filling in?

1034
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 5: He said, brock Hoffman isn't.

1035
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 2: Tyler Biattish, but he feels like he could hold his

1036
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 2: own in the interior. I think that's the only one

1037
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 2: that could plug in and be okay up front with

1038
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:57,920
Speaker 2: So that's Nick Harris's.

1039
00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 6: Vote, Nick, We're moving Zach Martin to right tackle. Okay,

1040
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:00,840
Speaker 6: still already.

1041
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 3: Figured it out. We've already done it.

1042
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,400
Speaker 2: By the way, Isaiah wasn't the only one that was

1043
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:10,399
Speaker 2: talking about having TJ Bass as a confident backup. There

1044
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 2: are multiple text messages on our text line, by the way,

1045
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 2: A one to seven two nine zero three two nine eight,

1046
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:19,400
Speaker 2: multiple text messages that say, if if you've got to

1047
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,840
Speaker 2: remove somebody, at least have TJ Bass go in. So

1048
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,040
Speaker 2: moving Tyler her excuse me, moving Zach out the right

1049
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 2: tackle and keeping TJ Bass in there. I mean, I

1050
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:29,760
Speaker 2: think we figured it out.

1051
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:30,799
Speaker 1: Because he solved it all.

1052
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:31,839
Speaker 3: I think we've done next.

1053
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 2: Sorry, Terrence Steele, I don't know what happened to you,

1054
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 2: but that's just it seems like something happened.

1055
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:39,320
Speaker 3: All right.

1056
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,280
Speaker 5: Let's flip to the defensive side of things.

1057
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 2: Defense only allowing one offensive touchdown, but in between the twenties,

1058
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:47,320
Speaker 2: they gave up plenty of yardage.

1059
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:49,480
Speaker 5: Miami was able to move the ball pretty much it

1060
00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:52,279
Speaker 5: will until they got inside the thirty the twenty, and

1061
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 5: then they seemingly pit or pattered out and had to

1062
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 5: settle for five field goals. They hit all five of them.

1063
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:00,719
Speaker 2: What were your thoughts John on the defense and how

1064
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:01,800
Speaker 2: they performed on Sunday.

1065
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 6: I thought about Isaiah on that fifty hour bomb to

1066
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:08,760
Speaker 6: Jalen Waddle early in the game. I was like, Oh,

1067
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 6: here we goes could be going on all day.

1068
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:11,319
Speaker 1: This might be bad.

1069
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 3: It should have been a touchdown before that.

1070
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 7: In reality, Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1071
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 6: So I was the way the game started, I was like, Oh,

1072
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:22,560
Speaker 6: this is not gonna be good for the Dallas Cowboys

1073
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 6: at all. But yeah, they tightened up, and I will

1074
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:28,759
Speaker 6: say that I was. I expected them to play better

1075
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 6: defensively than they did against Buffalo in terms of the

1076
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 6: mistackles things like that. But in no way did I

1077
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 6: ever think they were holding Miami to twenty two points

1078
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:41,080
Speaker 6: and really one touchdown. And I don't think Miami was

1079
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:46,439
Speaker 6: thinking that. You can tell by McDaniel's decision making early

1080
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:48,840
Speaker 6: on where he didn't go for the field goal and

1081
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:50,359
Speaker 6: went for it.

1082
00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 1: I think it was like fourth and five too. It

1083
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 1: wasn't even a real close.

1084
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 6: Fourth down, And I think it's because everybody felt like, oh,

1085
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 6: this game's going in the thirties. You know you're gonna

1086
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 6: need touch now. If you can't settle for field goals.

1087
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:02,840
Speaker 6: But the way the game kind of evolved was the

1088
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 6: way how the Cowboys defense was playing. You saw McDaniel

1089
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 6: be like, all right, we'll take these field goals now,

1090
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,799
Speaker 6: of course, I mean their kicker, I mean fifty two

1091
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 6: to fifty four to fifty seven outside.

1092
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 1: I mean that was that was impressive.

1093
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 6: So that's a little bit more to Lena, But I

1094
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 6: mean that was the main thing I wrote about off

1095
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 6: of the game was I was like, if they're going

1096
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 6: to make a deep playoff run, the defense has to

1097
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 6: play like this every time against a really good team.

1098
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,480
Speaker 6: And did they let up in the end. Yeah, they

1099
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:29,960
Speaker 6: needed to be better on that final drive, But overall,

1100
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 6: I thought they played. I thought it was a winning effort.

1101
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:33,839
Speaker 6: I thought they played good enough for them to win

1102
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:34,239
Speaker 6: that game.

1103
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:36,880
Speaker 2: To twenty four to thirty seven, two hundred and ninety

1104
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 2: three yards a touchdown, And the most impressive stat for

1105
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:41,840
Speaker 2: me is the fact that they went from two sixty

1106
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 2: six against the Buffalo Bills rushing yards allowed to just

1107
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:48,920
Speaker 2: ninety one against a really good rushing attack of the

1108
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:49,720
Speaker 2: Miami Dolphins.

1109
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:51,560
Speaker 6: So it's fascinating to watch how quick he gets the

1110
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,880
Speaker 6: ball out and like all the different movement that they

1111
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 6: do on the line to get guys open and things

1112
00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,680
Speaker 6: like that, And I mean, in a way, it's it.

1113
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 6: I want to see it against good teams in the

1114
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 6: playoffs to see if this thing can hold up. But

1115
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,160
Speaker 6: there is a part where you're like, man, if teams

1116
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 6: can do that, maybe you don't need the greatest offensive

1117
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 6: line because you're just moving it so quick and they're

1118
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:11,800
Speaker 6: not calling holds against Mike Persas.

1119
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 3: So it is. It was.

1120
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 6: It was fun to watch that to see how quick, like,

1121
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:18,400
Speaker 6: you know, they were doing a lot of stuff, you know,

1122
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:19,840
Speaker 6: at the Lions crimination.

1123
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 3: And I really liked the physicality that Dallas boy.

1124
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 2: And they brought at all four quarters, which is exactly

1125
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,359
Speaker 2: what you did not do against Buffalo, and you needed

1126
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 2: to do if you're going to build some confidence going

1127
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 2: into the playoffs.

1128
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 3: Tank Lawrence DeMarcus Lawrence was phenomenal. He's talking like.

1129
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,320
Speaker 5: One of the best games of his career.

1130
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 2: He's had some really good games taking on three people

1131
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:40,960
Speaker 2: at a time, and it's not something that's going to

1132
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 2: show up in the box score. Everybody at home is

1133
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:44,359
Speaker 2: probably gonna say, oh my gosh, you only had two

1134
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:46,400
Speaker 2: combined tackles and he didn't have a sack or a

1135
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:47,240
Speaker 2: tackle for loss.

1136
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:50,160
Speaker 3: He was effective impact baby.

1137
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 5: And you could see the the energy he brought, the

1138
00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:56,400
Speaker 5: tackling ability that that rallied around him. I thought it

1139
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 5: was the best this defense has looked against the run,

1140
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 5: against a formidable run attack.

1141
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:05,719
Speaker 2: Yep, maybe all season. And I say that because you've

1142
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:09,720
Speaker 2: talked about it before. When teams are dedicated to running

1143
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 2: the football down the throat to this Dallas defense, it's

1144
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:17,359
Speaker 2: usually effective. For sure, Miami was they wanted to run

1145
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 2: the football, and sure there were times where it was effective,

1146
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 2: but overall, you did not allow it to hurt you.

1147
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:26,600
Speaker 2: What hurt you was the fact that your offense petter

1148
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 2: pattern in the second and fourth or second and third

1149
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,759
Speaker 2: quarter and you couldn't find a rhythm. That's what ended

1150
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 2: up hurting you. I thought this defense played well enough

1151
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:33,880
Speaker 2: to win.

1152
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:37,360
Speaker 7: Defense played lights out. You talked about some of the

1153
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 7: individual players in terms of the law. He was disruptive

1154
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 7: as all get out. I think Milice Cooker had one

1155
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 7: heck of a game coming up and being physical and

1156
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:49,280
Speaker 7: just bringing guys down at the point of contact. Collectively,

1157
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 7: as a defense, these guys had a seventy five percent

1158
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:55,880
Speaker 7: effectiveness rate in the red zone. You know, the Dolphins

1159
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,160
Speaker 7: were only one of four in the red zone, which

1160
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,359
Speaker 7: is out of this world. That was number one team

1161
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,480
Speaker 7: in the league in the red zone. They were sixty

1162
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 7: eight percent I think going into the game red zone effectiveness.

1163
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:11,200
Speaker 7: So they balled out man tackles for loss. Okay, they

1164
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 7: only allowed ninety one yards on the ground. They had

1165
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:16,240
Speaker 7: four tackles for loss. I mean, I mean they played

1166
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,680
Speaker 7: on the other side of the line of scrimmage and

1167
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,319
Speaker 7: they created havoc in the backfield they had.

1168
00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:25,000
Speaker 3: Tua had a terrible game. I mean, coverage wise.

1169
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 7: You know, I don't want to take anything away from

1170
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:29,680
Speaker 7: our defense, but they had guys open. They had a

1171
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,440
Speaker 7: lot of guys open, a lot of opportunities. But Tua

1172
00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 7: was back there like he was constipated. He was not stable. Okay,

1173
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,160
Speaker 7: he did not feel safe at all. He was back there.

1174
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 7: He had the happy feet, he was overthrowing things. He

1175
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 7: was just not accurate because he didn't feel like he

1176
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:46,399
Speaker 7: could sit back there and sit on his back leg

1177
00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:49,120
Speaker 7: without getting his head knocked off. That's a testament to

1178
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:52,799
Speaker 7: his entire defensive line. And yeah, I mean, I think

1179
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 7: they did what they needed to do in order to

1180
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:57,160
Speaker 7: put their team in position to win the ball game.

1181
00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:01,359
Speaker 7: To your point, offense just did not do enough, and unfortunately,

1182
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 7: holding Miami to twenty two points didn't work in.

1183
00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:07,440
Speaker 3: Your favor, you know. And that's that's something that you

1184
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:08,480
Speaker 3: would take all day long.

1185
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,200
Speaker 7: Hey, can you stop the number one offense in the league,

1186
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 7: number one passing offense, the number four rushing offense, number

1187
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:19,920
Speaker 7: one scoring offense to twenty two points? I think you

1188
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:21,360
Speaker 7: would have taken that and said, yeah, we're going to

1189
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,240
Speaker 7: pretty much win the ball game, yep. And unfortunately you didn't.

1190
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:28,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was unfortunate that. That's what hurts.

1191
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:31,920
Speaker 2: This about this the most is the fact that you

1192
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:36,000
Speaker 2: had chances. Dallas had certain chances throughout the game, and

1193
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,920
Speaker 2: whether it's the lip key fumble or the play before that,

1194
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 2: or there were opportunities late in the game.

1195
00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,520
Speaker 5: They had a shot, they had a shot, and they

1196
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 5: didn't take it.

1197
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:48,919
Speaker 2: And it feels very reminiscent of Week nine against Philadelphia.

1198
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,359
Speaker 2: It's just exactly where I'm looking at is, Hey, they

1199
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,720
Speaker 2: were there, there were things to build on.

1200
00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:57,239
Speaker 3: But you lost the Game's that's what it looked like.

1201
00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,520
Speaker 2: But instead of it being twenty eight twenty three and

1202
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:02,680
Speaker 2: you had plays go the opposite direction throughout is the

1203
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:03,440
Speaker 2: same sort of deal.

1204
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 3: And you lost twenty two to twenty.

1205
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,120
Speaker 6: Philly game they had Schoonmaker on the one, gets sap

1206
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,279
Speaker 6: this game they had the Tony Pollard on the one.

1207
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:10,040
Speaker 1: Stuff like that.

1208
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 6: You know, just how it comes down to just those

1209
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:15,280
Speaker 6: little plays there. And it's been funny because yeah, people

1210
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,399
Speaker 6: say game inches and you just kind of roll your eyes, like, yeah,

1211
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:19,279
Speaker 6: we've heard this a million times, you know, but it

1212
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,359
Speaker 6: really they're in big games, it really is.

1213
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:23,120
Speaker 7: But you know, I know we're talking about a lot

1214
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:26,440
Speaker 7: of frustrations and a lot of frustration points. But I

1215
00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:27,960
Speaker 7: like to take the positive. I know, we gotta get

1216
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:31,359
Speaker 7: out here in a second, get to go. This game

1217
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:35,600
Speaker 7: was a positive even though you lost. And I say

1218
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:39,200
Speaker 7: that because you've had the opportunity now over the last

1219
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:40,719
Speaker 7: two weeks and you're about to run to it for

1220
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,320
Speaker 7: a third week in a row to play playoff football

1221
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:44,960
Speaker 7: before the playoffs.

1222
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 3: Without the playoff consequences.

1223
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 7: You've had the opportunity to play have playoff experience without

1224
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 7: having playoff ramifications. And if you don't take that as

1225
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 7: a positive and address all the things that you've put

1226
00:50:56,719 --> 00:51:00,319
Speaker 7: on film and use that now to help you you win.

1227
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:02,960
Speaker 7: The playoffs present themselves because you're in the playoffs. You're

1228
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 7: playing for better seeding and easier matchups and all that jazz.

1229
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:09,759
Speaker 7: But you're in the playoffs. So you take these experiences,

1230
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 7: both good and bad, and you use them when the

1231
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:15,799
Speaker 7: playoffs present themselves. Now, I'm not saying ignore the rest

1232
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:17,479
Speaker 7: of the games. You need to win and win out. Okay,

1233
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:19,359
Speaker 7: you need to take care of your business. But you're

1234
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:22,080
Speaker 7: learning a lot about yourself. And these coaches are learning

1235
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 7: lessons that they would much rather learn right now versus

1236
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:29,239
Speaker 7: learning in the actual playoffs. The Buffalo game, you figured out,

1237
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:30,759
Speaker 7: guess what, we have a freaking hold in it in

1238
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:32,920
Speaker 7: the middle of our defense. Our edges are soft. We

1239
00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:35,879
Speaker 7: can correct that. Okay, those are correctable things. Okay, I'm

1240
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:38,640
Speaker 7: glad that we've seen that. Now, Okay, are awesome. Now,

1241
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 7: Miami played one heck of a game. We had some

1242
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:43,400
Speaker 7: things that we did really, really well. We have some

1243
00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:45,239
Speaker 7: things that we need to convert on. We know that

1244
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,080
Speaker 7: we can go total toad with one of the best

1245
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 7: offenses in this league, if not consider the best offense

1246
00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:49,680
Speaker 7: in this league.

1247
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:52,359
Speaker 3: Awesome solid. Let's take that. Okay, now, let's improve upon

1248
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 3: the things that we need to prove upon.

1249
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:55,520
Speaker 7: Now we're probably about the player our most physical game

1250
00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:56,719
Speaker 7: outside of the forty nine ers.

1251
00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:58,000
Speaker 3: Let's see how we respond to this.

1252
00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:00,359
Speaker 7: Okay, can we play big boy ball and come out

1253
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:02,480
Speaker 7: here and hit some guys in the mouth. You're hitting

1254
00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,280
Speaker 7: on all these checkpoints, and by the time you're getting

1255
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:07,480
Speaker 7: ready to go play the playoff games, you have all

1256
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:10,319
Speaker 7: these as examples and all these experiences that you can

1257
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:13,319
Speaker 7: now lean on and bring into the playoffs to say, ah,

1258
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:15,719
Speaker 7: let's not do that again, or ah, we've seen this before,

1259
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:17,799
Speaker 7: let's turn this up one more time versus what we

1260
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,360
Speaker 7: did a couple of weeks back. I think it's it's awesome.

1261
00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 7: It's a sucky part of the season because of the

1262
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:25,200
Speaker 7: scheduled the difficulty, but it's awesome when you look at

1263
00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:27,680
Speaker 7: it because it's all by perspective. When you take these

1264
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 7: experiences and taking it to the playoffs, you'd be a

1265
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:32,399
Speaker 7: much better off team than you would have been had

1266
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:33,799
Speaker 7: you had an easier portion.

1267
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:35,239
Speaker 3: Of the season. Right now, as long as you can

1268
00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 3: get out of these games healthy too.

1269
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I mean that's a big thing in general, as

1270
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,080
Speaker 2: you get out of these dog fights healthy.

1271
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,239
Speaker 6: And on that note, I forgot to mention the news

1272
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 6: and notes Stefan Gilmour Jerry was at spot and said

1273
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 6: he'll be good to go for Sunday.

1274
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:48,600
Speaker 1: Huge, but or Saturday.

1275
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:50,040
Speaker 6: Sorry, but I wanted to bring that up because that

1276
00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 6: was a huge positive to leave that game without him.

1277
00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:54,680
Speaker 6: Because the way he was on the ground, I think

1278
00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:56,719
Speaker 6: a lot of people watching were like, whoa, this could

1279
00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:59,400
Speaker 6: be yeah, yeah, and if you lost him, you'd be

1280
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 6: in a lot of trouvel So it sounds like they

1281
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:03,319
Speaker 6: really dodge a bull on the stuff on gil Morio

1282
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:05,000
Speaker 6: injury and he was able to return anyway.

1283
00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:08,520
Speaker 2: Since we are comparing this Miami loss to the Philadelphia

1284
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:10,960
Speaker 2: loss back in week nine, if the same result happens

1285
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:13,400
Speaker 2: and follows and the Cowboys win five straight, they're in

1286
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:16,160
Speaker 2: the super Bowl. So hey, there's things that you can

1287
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:19,200
Speaker 2: be excited about moving forward. Cowboys Nation Big One this

1292
