Uh 26 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 5: and Monday Pads will come on next time we go 27 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 5: on the air. Pads will have been on for a practice. 28 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 5: And so the one thing I want to do today, 29 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 5: and we'll probably spend the bulk of our time today doing, 30 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 5: is laying the storylines out for fans. I think there 31 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 5: are a number of storylines that entering this camp and 32 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 5: entering uh training camp through the preseason, these are gonna 33 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 5: be the start storylines I think will be the predominant 34 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 5: storylines for the Cowboys, And I'll throw them out to 35 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 5: you guys and let you guys just pontificate on those 36 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 5: different storylines. 37 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 3: Uh. 38 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 7: But let's start first. 39 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 5: Let's get some updates on some injuries. We've got a 40 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 5: few guys that have some injury issues. Let's start with 41 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 5: Donovan Wilson. What we know, Patrick. 42 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 10: Donovan Wilson, he left to practice on Day one, ladies 43 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 10: and gentlemen, with what is reported to be a calf injury, 44 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 10: potentially a calf strain. The good news is it looks 45 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 10: like the Cowboys dodge the worst case scenario, So it's 46 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 10: not a month's long gets a week's long injury, per 47 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 10: Mike McCarthy on yesterday. So Donovan Wilson will likely miss 48 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 10: the entirety of camp and the preseason. But not that 49 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 10: big of a deal because I didn't anticipate Donovan would 50 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 10: get much of any work in the preseason anyway, and 51 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 10: he's a veteran at this point. 52 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 2: He knows how to jump in and play. 53 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 10: But expectation at this point is that he'll be available 54 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 10: Week one when the Cowboys visit the New York Giants. 55 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,519 Speaker 10: Second injury, unfortunately, also in the safety unit, Israel mcwambo 56 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 10: left with injury on the same day, day one of practice, 57 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,959 Speaker 10: but mccuamoo, I'm told, actually pulled himself as a precautionary 58 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 10: for precautionary reasons. He returned to the sideline, but he 59 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 10: was in street closed. But similar timeline between mccuambo and Wilson. 60 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 10: Mccuambo expected to be weeks long as well, so expect 61 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 10: both of them on the field as it stands, to 62 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 10: play against the New York Giants. But in the meantime, 63 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,959 Speaker 10: they will not be at practice on the field, I 64 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 10: should say, they will be leading from the sidelines, and 65 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,839 Speaker 10: that's going to give these young guys like Mike Keith Bell, 66 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 10: jan Ye Thommas, Tyler Coyle a chance to step up 67 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 10: and really try to prove themselves. 68 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 7: Which those other line. I'm sorry. 69 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 5: Safeties, do you guys see as as being the biggest 70 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 5: benefactors of this situation just from a standpoint of now 71 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 5: getting some more looks, more opportunity. 72 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 11: Yeah, yesterday Thomas had to play in the middle of 73 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 11: the field where he was. 74 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 6: Able to knock the ball down and stuff like that. 75 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 11: So yeah, like Patrick's talking about, though, these you got 76 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 11: some veteran safeties that are out and you mentioned all 77 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 11: the young guys, but I really, you know, you talk 78 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 11: about him, you talk about with Bell, you know, guys 79 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 11: like that. 80 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 6: Playing safety in the National Football. 81 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 11: League to me is all about recognition, and through recognition 82 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 11: is reps, you know, and those guys don't get a 83 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 11: whole lot of you know, Tyler Coyle. 84 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 6: The same way. You know, give these guys the. 85 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 11: Opportunity to get some prac just working against some of 86 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 11: the quality receivers and tight ends they have in camp, 87 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 11: and you know, you start to see the field a 88 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 11: little bit better. You gotta you know, you got a 89 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 11: quarterback that's capable of picking you apart if you don't 90 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 11: make your right reads and stuff. So any kind of 91 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 11: extra reps. Again, it's because of injury. That's the shame. 92 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 11: The part that you kind of feel bad about. But 93 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 11: for young guys to get reps, like I say, Thomas Bell, 94 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 11: those guys quarrel, that helps them in the long run 95 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 11: going forward. 96 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 7: Let's let's also give me update on Luke's gooon maker. 97 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 7: What do we know about him? 98 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 11: Yeah, this one can and I don't know if I 99 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 11: could add anything like that. I was talking to some 100 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 11: people about Luke and this is an injury, a pre 101 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,559 Speaker 11: existing injury that comes from Michigan is where we're talking 102 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,799 Speaker 11: about here. And so you know, when you're dealing with feet, 103 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 11: you know, that's something that this kind of you know, 104 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 11: there's the high ankles and then there's certain other injuries 105 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 11: to feed and stuff that people just kind of you 106 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 11: got to give this single rest. You got to get 107 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 11: let it, you know. And it's unfortunate because to me, 108 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 11: I know, through the draft show and the coverage that 109 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 11: we were doing, he was picked in the second round. 110 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 11: I was super ex cited about the pick because I've 111 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 11: seen this guy Michigan run the football, you know, I've 112 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,679 Speaker 11: seen Blake Corn from Michigan just hammer it down people's 113 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 11: throats in the Big Ten. Well, they're running behind scoon 114 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 11: Maker and stuff and I'm thinking, Okay, big body guy translates, 115 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 11: that's a guy that probably needs to be working, you know, 116 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 11: next to Tyron Smith needs to be working, next to 117 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 11: Terrence Steele needs to be working and kind of. 118 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 6: Developing his craft a little bit. 119 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 11: So the fact that they're trying to figure out a 120 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 11: timeline for this, they really don't have a specific specific 121 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 11: When we was Patrick you got one, I was told 122 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 11: they're trying to work through that possibility of when they 123 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 11: can get him back on the field, but they're going 124 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 11: to take their time with this one. 125 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 10: Absolutely correct, and specifically, what Luke Schoolmaker is dealing with 126 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 10: is plantar fesciitis, and as Brian so eloquently stated, that 127 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 10: does take time. 128 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 2: It is painful. 129 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 10: You don't want to try to push that because it 130 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 10: can work against you very quickly and then it'll extend 131 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 10: the length of your absence. So what I did like 132 00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 10: to see from school what it did like as far 133 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 10: as what I saw Schoolmaker yesterday, is he's already out 134 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 10: there doing mental reps. Yeah, you could see him in 135 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 10: the team drills. He was off in the end zone 136 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 10: and he was mimicking and doing phantom drills trying to 137 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 10: keep up with the mental reps and the assignments that 138 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 10: so that when he is healthy and he gets in there, 139 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 10: he'll be able to pick right up. But in his absence, 140 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 10: obviously we know Jake Ferguson, for my money, he was 141 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 10: coming in as te one and he was going to 142 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 10: go against Schoolmaker for that role. But right now it's 143 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 10: Jake Ferguson who looks like he's put on some good weight. 144 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,239 Speaker 10: Put on some good weight. He's ready to go. Peyton 145 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 10: Hendershot needs to take advantage of these opportunities as well. 146 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,840 Speaker 10: But more so than those two guys are the ones 147 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 10: that we didn't necessarily talk too much about coming into 148 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 10: training camp, Seth Green, Sean McEwen, Princeton, Fance. Some of 149 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 10: these younger guys really now have an opportunity in Schoolmaker's 150 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 10: current absence. Day two, I ended up my eyeballs went 151 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 10: to him a few times because. 152 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 2: I'm like, hey, look at that kid, Hey look at 153 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 2: that kid again. 154 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 10: John Stevens, he what he did yesterday in practice is 155 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 10: a perfect example of what we're talking about here. Young 156 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 10: guys need to step up and take this opportunity and 157 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 10: make sure that they get a name for themselves before 158 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 10: schoonmaker gets back on the field. 159 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 7: All right, here's we gonna do. We're gonna move on 160 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 7: to well. 161 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 12: Hold on, I think you should mention someone else. Trevon Diggs. 162 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 12: He's been out on the sideline. He hasn't really been 163 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 12: practicing yet. I don't think we know, or have you 164 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 12: guys heard yet, any of the specifics. I know there's 165 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 12: been a lot of questions as to why he hasn't 166 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 12: been out there just yet. 167 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 2: So it's being described as a toe injury. 168 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 10: And I know that when you're talking about two positions 169 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 10: in particular, cornerback and wide receiver, you hear toe, you 170 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 10: get scared, okay, But what it's being described to me 171 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 10: as is a sore toe. And then when you look 172 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 10: at Trevon yesterday the interception by Nashan right versus Jaylen Toby, 173 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 10: now exactly he ran full speed down the sideline. So 174 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 10: Mike McCarthy said yesterday in the press conference that Trevon 175 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 10: Diggs is quote unquote fine, and then in practice I 176 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 10: see him spritting down the sidelines. I'm inclined to believe 177 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 10: that he is indeed fine. The Cowboys are just being 178 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 10: cautious with that, which makes sense with your ninety seven 179 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 10: dollar cornerback. 180 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, if you've got a part that's already sore, my 181 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 5: thought is, let that simmer down a round bit, especially 182 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 5: this early early in camp. Give it a little time. 183 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 5: We'll see where it goes. 184 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 11: Yeah, the play that right made, I'd run down there too, 185 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 11: maybe put my PAGs on while I'm at A really 186 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 11: nice job by him playing in position Tolbert had him 187 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 11: beat and the balls so slightly underthrown but rally to 188 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 11: get to that point. 189 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 6: Good job by Right. A lot of. 190 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 11: Pressure on him, you know, people were kind of talking 191 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 11: about him and Kelvin Joseph. Nice to see him have 192 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 11: some early success. 193 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 7: Yeah, you mentioned Kelvin Joseph. Did you notice anything. 194 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 6: There didn't know a thing about Kevin Joseph. Yeah, I 195 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 6: didn't notice anything different. 196 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 11: There doesn't make up break Ye, this is there's a 197 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,079 Speaker 11: lot of guys on this field. 198 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 6: There's a lot of guys. 199 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 11: As this camp goes on, the thing that you will 200 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 11: learn is, and I always thought this, I'm like, man, 201 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 11: these you know, we're gonna have to let these players go. 202 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 11: When I was in player personnel, we're gonna have to 203 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 11: let these players go. Bill Parcells told me one time. 204 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:59,079 Speaker 11: He said, Brian, these players get themselves cut. They get 205 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 11: themselves cut. Either play or they don't play. You know, 206 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 11: don't ever feel bad. I'm like, well, you know, he 207 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 11: goes No. These players they're gonna either play for you 208 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 11: or they're not gonna play for you. So the field 209 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 11: will tell you a lot as we watch these practices. 210 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 5: I'll tell you this, as much as we wanted him 211 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 5: to step up as a cornerback and become one of 212 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 5: the guys, he may actually just end up finding his 213 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 5: role as a special teams guy yea, because he's shown 214 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 5: some flashes there where he could become a special team's ace. 215 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 5: It's not what you want from your second round pick, 216 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 5: but there's a need for something. 217 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 11: I felt like though that maybe they were playing at 218 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 11: safety a little bit, and then I was going, man, okay, 219 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 11: I see what's going on. And because you talk about 220 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 11: covering kicks, but then there were a couple of times 221 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 11: where you had the penalties you know, fair catch, interference 222 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 11: and all that, and you're like, oh, where's the awareness there, 223 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 11: you know, and stuff like that. So you have to 224 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 11: have that ability to see the field at safety. We 225 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 11: talked about it earlier in the segment that you know, 226 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,599 Speaker 11: you have to see the field, you have to be 227 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 11: able to react. The part about him being tough and 228 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 11: tackling that's not the question. But you know, it's very 229 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 11: much like it's like a woozy A. To me remember 230 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 11: with a Woozia, it was always like he's in a 231 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 11: position and he just couldn't finish the play. Yeah, and 232 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 11: then you're like, please just finish one of these plays, 233 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 11: like Kelvin Joseph might be one of those guys too. 234 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 6: That's kind of a please finish the play guy. 235 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, all right, here's gonna do. 236 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 5: We're gonna take a quick break a little early here, 237 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 5: but we're gonna go ahead and take our break. 238 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 7: We'll come back. 239 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 5: We'll get into some of our standout moments or players 240 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 5: will let you guys go around the table and tell 241 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 5: us a little bit about what you've seen at practice, 242 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 5: what's really stood out to you, and do when we 243 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 5: come back. 244 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 7: Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio. 245 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 13: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the 246 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 13: Cheat of Savannah.

I mean, you talk about Ceedee Lamb, 303 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 12: he's been standing out Cooks, He's been doing a really 304 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 12: nice job. But one player that I've kept my eyes 305 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 12: on is Jalen Tolbert. How even though he's had a 306 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 12: couple of plays where you're like, oh no, that was 307 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 12: not that great, he's had moments where you can see 308 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 12: the growth that he's shown just from last year and 309 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 12: to this point right now, you can see that he's 310 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 12: taking a step up. And as far as his confidence, 311 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 12: there are moments that his movements to me now look 312 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 12: like they have a purpose. He's moving with purpose, and 313 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 12: he's out there he looks a lot more confident and 314 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 12: you can tell that, I guess the time that he's 315 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 12: spent with Dak in his backyard with everybody else, just 316 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 12: creating and building that relationship, that chemistry. It's starting to 317 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 12: really show out here in camp. I thought we were 318 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 12: about to get hit with that balls. It was close. 319 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 12: But anyways, Wide receivers have done a really nice job. 320 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 12: But just wanted to point out Jaalen Tolbert and just 321 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 12: tell fans that there's hope. There's hope there and he's 322 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 12: starting to show, uh, some of that growth and development 323 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 12: right now. 324 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 2: I love that. 325 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 10: And Jalen Tobert is actually was one of the practice 326 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 10: points that I put on the dot com yesterday as 327 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 10: far as one of the key guys that stood out 328 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 10: to me yesterday. Even for example, in that matchup against 329 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 10: Nashwan Right, even though Right won that battle, Jalen Tobert 330 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 10: was right there high pointing it with Right. He was 331 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 10: physical and then he went right back to Dark Prescott 332 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 10: and said come back to me and guess what. Two 333 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 10: plays later, across the middle dark Presscott rewards him for 334 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 10: that confidence. So, but I'm gonna go defense on this one. 335 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 10: I'm gonna go with Jabrill Cox. Jabril Cox looks he's 336 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 10: he's carrying over. Yeah, he's carrying over what we he 337 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 10: saw from him in mini camp. His confidence level another 338 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 10: former mid round pick. Jabrill Cox's confidence level is reminded 339 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 10: me of what I'm seeing from Jalen Jalen Tobert's confidence 340 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 10: levels through the roof right now. And now Jabril Cox 341 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 10: is as well, and he's playing like that. There was 342 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 10: one play in particular, route comes across the middle. The 343 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 10: red of the play was fantastic, the reaction was even better, 344 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 10: and on top of that not toping. 345 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 2: I'm sorry Cox played through the whistle. 346 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 10: I thought at one point they were gonna have to 347 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 10: break that tackle up. And then kind of jokingly afterwards, 348 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 10: I asked he Brill, I said, were you gonna take 349 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 10: the receiver with you home? 350 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 2: And he was like, I would have if I had to. 351 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 2: That's the kind of energy I liked. 352 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 10: This is a pivotal season for Jabrill Cox as well, 353 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 10: and especially in that LB. 354 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 2: Three battle whe the Cowboys try to saw it. 355 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, he's the June guy. 356 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 11: You throw on the bubble, kind of like where's Cox 357 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 11: gonna how is he gonna play this year? 358 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 6: But especially the. 359 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 11: Depth they need to figure out the depth at linebacker. 360 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 11: That's a good view right there. I was up by 361 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 11: Ambar and Derek watching practice and I'm going to point 362 00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 11: out kept my aunt, Terrence Steele yesterday. What one particular play, 363 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 11: Terrett Steel is your right tackle. They're gonna run outside 364 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 11: play going all the way to the left, and they're 365 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 11: gonna try and carry it to the boundary and up 366 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 11: the sidelines. Terret Steel a his right tackle spot. He 367 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 11: comes all the way through and the next thing I know, 368 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 11: he's out there blocking on the safety out in space. 369 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 11: So here's the play. 370 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 6: Going completely away from him. 371 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 11: You worry about his agility, mobility, how he plays in space. 372 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 11: He got engaged with the safety up the field and 373 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 11: then you watch the ball cut behind him there. So 374 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 11: it's good to watch him. The pass sets looked good 375 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 11: from him as well. You know, it was very clear 376 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 11: to me when he wasn't in the lineup. Adoga had 377 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 11: some struggles yesterday playing a little bit of tackle feet 378 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 11: not as good as it needed to be, but it 379 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 11: was good to see Terren Steele, engaged up the field, mobility, agility, 380 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 11: all those things that we love about his game. 381 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 7: All Right, So here's what I do. 382 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 5: I want to pivot now to the storylines that we 383 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 5: will be telling talking about throughout this training camp, and 384 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 5: I want to start with the storyline. I think that's 385 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 5: probably the biggest one for the Cowboys right now, Zach Martin. 386 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 5: My question for you guys is how much of an 387 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 5: issue do you think Zach Zach Martin's unhappiness with his 388 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 5: contract will be for the Cowboys this preseason heading into 389 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 5: the season. 390 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 2: I think. 391 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 12: I mean we've talked about it. We talked about it 392 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 12: on the first show. You know, when the Cowboys want something, 393 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 12: they're gonna get it done. And I think it's not 394 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 12: gonna go into the season with you not having Sach Martin. 395 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 12: He's gonna be there. I think they'll find a solution. 396 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 12: If anything, I look at this on the brighter side, 397 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 12: the opportunities that this is giving other guys on the 398 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 12: O line. We know the issues as far as injuries 399 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 12: that we've seen the O line struggle and how often 400 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 12: we see them shifting from position. Even though Sag has 401 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 12: been that one constant guy that doesn't move and stays there. 402 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 12: It still gives other guys the opportunity to just take 403 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 12: those reps here and be able to bond and build 404 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 12: that chemistry on the old line as well. But I don't, honestly, 405 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,120 Speaker 12: I'm just waiting for it to get done. We heard 406 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 12: Dak Prescott on the podium say, just to pay the man, 407 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 12: pay him. He deserves it, so honestly, right, I just 408 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 12: don't think it's going to be an issue at. 409 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 2: All, and I agree, I don't. 410 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 10: I don't think it's going to be an issue regardless 411 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 10: of the amount of time it takes for this resolution 412 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 10: to land. But I get the impression that this resolution 413 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 10: is coming fairly soon, especially when you hear Tyler Smith 414 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 10: yesterday after second day of practice say that Zach Martin 415 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 10: sent a text message to each of the offensive linemen 416 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 10: and he said, quote unquote, I'll be there soon. 417 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 2: So I think it's already in the works. 418 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 10: And I am one hundred percent confident that of any 419 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 10: player getting a deal done, it will be on Zach Martin, 420 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 10: because that's the guy that you pay. And that's why 421 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 10: Dak Prescott was so definitive and concise in that comment. 422 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 10: Just pay the man, because if you're Dak Prescott, you're 423 00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 10: already looking at an offensive line that's trying to sort 424 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 10: itself out, even with Zach Martin right there being your 425 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 10: security blanket at right guard. If you remove him, that's 426 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 10: a that's a scary site for Dak Prescott. So that's 427 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 10: why Dak said what he said. But you know, brother 428 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 10: Zach Martin is out a week, two weeks the entirety 429 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 10: of camp as far as his preparation. We see video 430 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 10: coming out on Twitter right now. He's working without a 431 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 10: good friend, Duke Minyweather. He's staying in shape. He's going 432 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 10: to hit the ground running whenever he gets here. But 433 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 10: in the meantime, great point by Mbar. Much like Donovan Wilson, 434 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 10: although injury that's injury based and Israel mcconwell injury based, 435 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 10: it's an opportunity for these younger guys, Matt Farniac for example, 436 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 10: to step up and show what they can do on 437 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,160 Speaker 10: the interior of the offensive level. 438 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 11: Farniac was a reason why it actually was a better 439 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 11: practice at that spot because everybody else it took a 440 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 11: swing at that right guard spot. 441 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 6: It was a nightmare. It really really was. He the 442 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 6: man they had Josh Paul had problems over there. 443 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 11: You know, it's TJ. Bass had problems over there. I'm 444 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 11: sure when Dak was standing on the podium yesterday he said, 445 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 11: pay them man, knowing. 446 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,719 Speaker 6: How practice just went over on that right side. They 447 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 6: they really struggled over there. And you know, but the. 448 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 11: Cowboys, yeah, you put you put DeMarcus Lawrence inside is 449 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 11: a three technique and rushing the nickel, there's gonna be problems. 450 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 11: But it just was not anywhere where it needed to 451 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 11: be yesterday again, Farniac to me, was the best option there, 452 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 11: you know. 453 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 6: And and it. 454 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 11: Was good, you know, Tyler Smith and Tyron Smith on 455 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 11: that left side, things were fine over there. That right 456 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 11: side was a mess other than stealing Farniac when and 457 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 11: that's the thing that scares me a little bit of about, 458 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 11: you know, not having Zach Martin over there. 459 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 6: So yes, pay the man for sure as well. 460 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 2: Sometimes your absence will help negotiate your contract for you. 461 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 11: Yeah. 462 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, but you know one thing I out throw out there, 463 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 5: and I hear what you guys are saying. From the 464 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 5: standpoint you don't worry so much about Zach. You know, 465 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 5: he could come in, he'll be fine. 466 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 6: I worry after what I saw yesterday. 467 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, and what I what I worry about as well 468 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 7: is continuity. 469 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 5: Like I'm trying to build continuity on this offensive line 470 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 5: with a bit I mean you, I don't know if 471 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 5: I call it a brand new offense, but certainly newer 472 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 5: elements being added to the offense. I really want my 473 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 5: offensive line to start develop that chemistry together as a unit. 474 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 5: And to me, that's where I think not having exact 475 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 5: their matters and so for every day he misses, yeah, 476 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 5: somebody else is going to get those reps, but that's 477 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 5: also one less rep or however many less reps that 478 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 5: Terrence still is gonna get with the guy he's gonna 479 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 5: be playing with on Sundays, right, And that's where I 480 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 5: think it's It's one of those things where you would 481 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 5: hope that at some point this gets resolved one way 482 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,439 Speaker 5: or the other and he gets out here because you 483 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 5: do want to start building well. 484 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 12: And I guess also when you speak out of it 485 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 12: that way, you can point out the voice, the voice 486 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 12: lacking in that room as far as leadership and experience. 487 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 12: We know h Yren Smith, he's not I mean we've 488 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 12: talked to him or barely barely. You barely get to 489 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,880 Speaker 12: hear his voice. Oh my god, almost got killed here. 490 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 2: We're at camp ladies and gentlemen. 491 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 11: That would be a miss that training camp battle for kickers, 492 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 11: that would be a miss for that camera. We were 493 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 11: almost made funny home videos there almost to keep it. 494 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 2: I'm awake now anyway, Tyron Smith. 495 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 12: One of the things that h Tyler Smith pointed out 496 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 12: yesterday is that he is having now in his second year, 497 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 12: having to kind of step up and speak up and 498 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 12: just take a little more of that leadership role in 499 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 12: the meantime. So that's good for young guys to develop 500 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 12: that way, but also it's it would be nice to 501 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 12: have sex experience and voice guiding these guys. 502 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,159 Speaker 2: I mean, that's all of that's true. 503 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 10: And you know, every coin has two sides, and Derek, 504 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 10: you make an excellent point. You want continuity to be 505 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 10: established early on so that you can build on it. 506 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 10: The good news when it comes to that is with 507 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 10: Terrence Steele coming back and looking like you know, Prime 508 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 10: Terrence Steele and Tyler Badish is right there. When Zach 509 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 10: does return, you instantly have that pre established chemistry between Beadish, 510 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 10: Martin and still it's already there. But then if you're 511 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 10: the coaching staff, you have to find out what you 512 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 10: have in these younger guys Farni y'ac and in the 513 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 10: Doga when you operate him on the interior. You gotta 514 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,199 Speaker 10: find out sooner or later what you have there or 515 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 10: what you don't have there in the event that you 516 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 10: might need to go out into veteran free agency and 517 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 10: bring somebody in so that you have a better situation 518 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 10: behind Zach Martin going forward. So it's it's unfortunate you 519 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,439 Speaker 10: because you want Zach on the field, but being that 520 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 10: he's not on the field, you got to take advantage 521 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 10: of that. 522 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 12: Alright, This conversation. 523 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 2: And the trenches ladies and gentlemen like. 524 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 6: Com does. 525 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 7: Put you in the take one for the thing. Right, 526 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 7: Let's go on to the next storyline, and this is obvious. 527 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 10: So do we have concussion protocols as media folks, because if. 528 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 2: It causes the. 529 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 6: Situation, than I am Zach Mark. 530 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 2: That's a fact. 531 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 5: This storyline is probably the biggest storyline for the Cowboys 532 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 5: coming out of last season that they will have to 533 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 5: answer going into the upcoming season. How will Dallas solve 534 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 5: its interceptions from twenty twenty two. 535 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 11: I'll tell you the there's the one thing that you 536 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 11: kind of can hang your hat on if you look 537 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 11: at the history of Mike McCarthy, and yeah, he's he 538 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 11: had a Hall of Fame quarterback in Aaron Rodgers who 539 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 11: doesn't throw interceptions, but his offenses tend. 540 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 6: To lend to not allowing that to happen. 541 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 11: When he's been the primary play caller, you have seen 542 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 11: where the interceptions the touchdowns are high, interceptions are low. 543 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,120 Speaker 11: If you're a fan of that, if that's the how 544 00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 11: you believe in things, and I want to say that 545 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 11: about Mike as a play caller. You know, maybe there's 546 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 11: some things that you know, I've got in trouble on 547 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 11: on my radio station. People have kind of taken this 548 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 11: the wrong way about Dak. Dak is super aggressive when 549 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 11: it comes to throwing the football, you know, and so 550 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 11: you know, when you start to talk about how much 551 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 11: trust does he really have, I mean, he has. 552 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 6: Maybe too much trust. 553 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 11: You know, maybe some guys were letting him down, you 554 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 11: know when it came to well, Simi Fijoco let him 555 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,640 Speaker 11: down just the other day, you know. And there's quite 556 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 11: a few of those Dak interceptions where somebody let him down. 557 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 11: So if you just you know, again the trust, there's 558 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 11: guys that are going to have to make some plays 559 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 11: for him. But you know, nobody ever talks about, uh, 560 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 11: you know, the quarterback at the Rams when they won 561 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 11: the Super. 562 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 6: Bowl and he basically led the league in interceptions. 563 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 11: You know, once your once your if you you find 564 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 11: a way to win games and win playoff games and 565 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 11: win the Super Bowl, some of those things go away. 566 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 11: But I want to believe because of Mike McCarthy's history 567 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,119 Speaker 11: as he really does a good job of limiting the number. 568 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 11: And maybe it's just the way he calls the game. 569 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 11: Maybe it's the way you know. And we'll see Brian 570 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 11: with him and Brian Schottenheimer if they can. But Dak's 571 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 11: aggressiveness is one of those things that I. 572 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 6: Think you're going to have to live with. That's what 573 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 6: he wants to do. 574 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 5: And I will throw this into Brian when you say 575 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 5: that about his aggressiveness to people letting him down, his 576 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 5: receivers maybe letting him down. That really goes back and 577 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 5: speaks to what I think was the biggest challenge was 578 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 5: I think and then again, I'm not trying to necessarily 579 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,119 Speaker 5: point out any particular player. But I think the level 580 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,880 Speaker 5: of his talent, of the talent of the receivers and 581 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 5: what they were providing last season was down from what 582 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 5: it had been the year before. And I think you 583 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 5: solve a lot of the problems of the interceptions by 584 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 5: upping the quality when you go out and get a 585 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,640 Speaker 5: Brandon Cooks, when you get Michael Gallup back to hopefully 586 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 5: what we think Michael Gallup is like those things alone. 587 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 5: Take your second and third receivers and improve them over 588 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 5: what you had last year, and that will give you 589 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 5: targets that, by the way, if you are being aggressive 590 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 5: and you want to trust them by giving them a 591 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 5: shot to make a play, you know either they're gonna 592 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 5: make the play or nobody's gonna make the. 593 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's the thing about it though. 594 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,679 Speaker 11: But but you go back and you watch in the 595 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 11: Green Bay game and he throws an interception down almost 596 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 11: in the red zone where Schultz and Lamb he Dak 597 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 11: was thinking somebody was going to break inside. Yeah, two 598 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 11: guys basically the same area, and one of them was 599 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 11: supposed to go inside, and Dak's reading that, Okay, I'm 600 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,479 Speaker 11: gonna throw you inside where you need to be and 601 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 11: there's the trust. Yeah, there's the trust factor. And to 602 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 11: your point, I totally agree with you because you know 603 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 11: Noah Brown throwing to him and also the balls in 604 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 11: the air, and Michael Gallup wasn't at his absolute best, 605 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 11: you know, I mean the things happening there, Simmi Fajoco 606 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 11: out here and immediately it's like, oh damn it, Dak's throwing. 607 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 6: Another interception where the ball hit Semi. 608 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 11: Fojoko between the eight and the one, you know, and 609 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,439 Speaker 11: he's got to make that play. He did underthrow the 610 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 11: ball yesterday, but what is he doing. He's taking a 611 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 11: shot on a nine route and it was really a 612 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 11: good play. 613 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 5: And by the way, those kind of balls, yeah, I'm 614 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 5: not as upset about. 615 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 7: That's a point in my mind. Do it all the time, 616 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 7: but take that chance. 617 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 6: You got to figure that out practice. 618 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 11: If you want to do that, if you want to 619 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 11: figure out, if you want to challenge that, let's go 620 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 11: for it. But like I said, there's I'm banking on that. 621 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 11: Mike McCarthy's way he calls plays could limit the way 622 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,199 Speaker 11: that Dak Prescott could be put into some harm's way 623 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 11: of throwing some interceptions. 624 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 10: And I've always been and I agree, and I've always 625 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 10: been on the heel of you don't want to mute, 626 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 10: for lack of a better way to put it, you 627 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 10: don't want to mute Dak Prescott's aggressiveness. You want to 628 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 10: trim it so that you can eliminate as many riverboat 629 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 10: throws as possible. But you got to understand that some 630 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 10: of those riverboat throws are gonna win you games, right right, 631 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 10: that's how you well, you have to have that kind 632 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 10: of quarterback. 633 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 2: But here's the big thing for me. 634 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 10: For those that are harping Ondak's fifteen interceptions last season, 635 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 10: you go back and you look at the film into 636 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 10: my account, and I logged each one of them. It 637 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 10: was thirty three thirty four percent were accountable to the receivers. 638 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 10: So if you take that out of the math, then 639 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 10: that means he threw ten interceptions. Now granted that was 640 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 10: in a shorter time frame, only twelve games, but interceptions 641 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 10: mirrors what he typically does on an annual basis. So 642 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 10: you still say, Okay, twelve games, ten picks. Gotta peel 643 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 10: that back. I believe he will because history shows that 644 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 10: he can when he has a three headed monster. First 645 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 10: full year of Mary Cooper being here Dak Prescott, that's 646 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 10: when he almost took the record from Tony Romo FO 647 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 10: nine hundred and two yards, thirty touchdowns to only eleven picks. 648 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 10: He was injured in twenty twenty. We know about the 649 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 10: broken ankle twenty twenty one, another Mari Cooper year, almost 650 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 10: forty five hundred yards, thirty seven touchdowns, ten interceptions. Now 651 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 10: you bring in Brandon Cooks logic, Dick takes, and history 652 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 10: tells us that in this formula, Dak Prescott will thrive, 653 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 10: the interceptions will decrease, the production will increase, and then 654 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 10: you have McCarthy. 655 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 2: Into it as a play caller, and now who we are. 656 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 11: Well, but then again, we're gonna get to week eight, 657 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 11: Patrick and Amber's gonna go this offense makes no big plays. 658 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 6: If this thing turns into dank and. 659 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 11: Dunk, dank and dunk, dancon dunk and then ambar and 660 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 11: week eight, it's gonna go. Where are the big plays? 661 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 11: Where are the chunk plays? Where the twenty yard plays? 662 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,959 Speaker 11: This offense it's you know, and hope they get off 663 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 11: the field. They don't score any points. 664 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 6: You know, that's the problem. 665 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 11: If you you talk about muting Dak and they don't 666 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 11: make big plays and they don't get points, you know, 667 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 11: because that's one of the thing. 668 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 6: They're one of the teams of the. 669 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 11: League in big plays, you know them, the Dolphins for 670 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 11: I mean they they they're one of the teams that 671 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 11: make big plays in this scene. And the minute this 672 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 11: turns into just a dink and dunk offense, fans are 673 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 11: gonna be losing their damn minds about that. 674 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 12: You know what. Surprisingly, I myself don't feel concerned for 675 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 12: the interceptions this year. I feel like now with the 676 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 12: off season, because last year, what was that thing that 677 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 12: we always heard after a game Brian press conference, ye 678 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 12: dark saying my. 679 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 6: Babe, I've got to improve. 680 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 12: Week after week we would see kind of the same performance. 681 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 12: But I think now with this break and working together 682 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 12: and all that, I do know for a fact that 683 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 12: I feel a lot better about the wide receiver group 684 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 12: currently then and I did last year at the same time. 685 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 12: So I think that they're starting training camp on the 686 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 12: right foot with the right kind of guys that you want, 687 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 12: so wide receivers, I feel a lot better. 688 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 7: Dak. 689 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 12: I think he's gonna figure it out. And I'm with you, guys, 690 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 12: I don't want him to take a step back and 691 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 12: become more conservative. I think he should keep going. And 692 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 12: it's all about getting on the same page, being on 693 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 12: the same page, that chemistry that we keep mentioning, just knowing, Okay, 694 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 12: I know exactly where that guy's gonna be, and you 695 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 12: know exactly that I'm going to you, And just that 696 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 12: comes with time. But obviously you feel like you're running 697 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 12: out of time here. When is the time coming? But 698 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 12: I do think that they're on the right track, and 699 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 12: I think that would be an area that I believe 700 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 12: that they will definitely have improved by the start. 701 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 6: Of the season. 702 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 2: Chemistry and trust. 703 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 10: To Edbar's point, chemistry and trust, and it looks like 704 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 10: he has an instant in building chemistry with Brandon Cooks, 705 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 10: already has it with Ceedee Lamb. They had some timing 706 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 10: issues last year the resulted in some of those interceptions, 707 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 10: Lamb not crossing face, he going behind the safety. But 708 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 10: we've also seen Dak make throws like, for example, he 709 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 10: doesn't make the throw the game winning can throw in 710 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 10: New York to Cole Beasley if he doesn't trust that receiver. 711 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 10: There was a particular play against the Cleveland Browns when 712 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 10: Cooper was here. Mark Cooper was here in Dallas. It 713 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 10: was a key hole throw. He doesn't make that throw 714 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 10: if he doesn't trust the receiver. So this is Dak 715 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 10: trying to see who he can and cannot trust, and 716 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 10: now it's the time to do it in training camp. 717 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 5: In fact of the matter, in this kind of offense, 718 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 5: what we think we're gonna see from this offense, that's 719 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 5: what this offense is predicated on. 720 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 7: It's those timing bas throws. 721 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 5: It's those quick get the ball out and the receiver 722 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 5: has to be i mean, with pinpoint accuracy in the 723 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 5: spot where he needs to be because the ball is 724 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,959 Speaker 5: gonna beat there, right, Yeah, so you got to trust him. 725 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 6: A great example yesterday, I have them running. 726 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 11: They're running a lot of bunch formation three to one 727 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 11: side and then scatter and then also they got these 728 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 11: pick routes too, where they're driving guys inside and then 729 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 11: running CD behind that, you know, and he's sitting down 730 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 11: in his zone and Dak's throwing the ball. That's exactly 731 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 11: to your point, though, Receivers need to be where they 732 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 11: are are supposed to be, and you also need to 733 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 11: find a way to finish though if you're receiver. Don't 734 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 11: let the ball clang off you and go in the 735 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 11: air and then somebody makes an interception. And now we're 736 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 11: talking about the quarterback and a high number of interceptions 737 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 11: at a game or a practice. 738 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 10: And it's also true that Deck needs to also make 739 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 10: sure that he's making a smart decision. Example, you look 740 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 10: at the playoff game against the forty nine ers. You 741 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 10: dodge a bullet once against Fred Warner. Yeah, you can't 742 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 10: go there again. So those are the types of things 743 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 10: that are accountable to Dek Prescott, and he knows it, 744 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 10: and that's what he's working to clean up mentally. 745 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 7: All Right, we're gonna take our final break. 746 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 2: Come back. 747 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 7: We got some more story lines we'll hit. We'll do 748 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 7: that in a second.

We were just talking at 826 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:52,839 Speaker 11: the break. 827 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:53,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 828 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 10: For me coming into camp, this was still the most 829 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 10: glaring position that needed to be addressed. 830 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:01,800 Speaker 2: And I said it at several points. 831 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 10: I understand you bring it, you bring Backtris in thiss Guyano, 832 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 10: and then you go and get Brandon Aubrey from the 833 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 10: USFL And the question was posed to me on one 834 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 10: to five point three of him the fan on yesterday morning. 835 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 10: Uh do I feel like one of these guys is 836 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 10: the answer? As Jerry Jones said, one of them can be. 837 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 10: I don't have the body of work that gives me 838 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 10: that level of confidence. I can't justifiably sit here and 839 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 10: say yes, I believe that, and there therefore I do 840 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 10: have some concern at the position. 841 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,280 Speaker 2: And as these footballs. 842 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 10: Sail over our heads with the goal post over there, 843 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:38,959 Speaker 10: it just let it reinforces that. Now I understand these guys. 844 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 10: They have to get there. Yeah, there's some win and 845 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 10: they got to get their their leg beneath them, you know, 846 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 10: so to speak. But that being said again, neither of 847 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 10: these guys have the body of work that gives me 848 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,800 Speaker 10: the confidence. And then what we're kind of halfway seeing 849 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 10: they're struggling to start training camp. 850 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 2: Hopefully they pick things up. 851 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 10: But when you have some veteran free agents out there, 852 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 10: like a Mason Crosby, for example, who has familiarity with 853 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 10: Mike McCarthy obviously from their days with the Packers, Viscay 854 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,320 Speaker 10: I ain't know and I'll be they're really going to 855 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 10: have to get the going and they can't wait until 856 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 10: later in camp to get it going to happen, has 857 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 10: to happen now or we're going to be looking at 858 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 10: a situation like last year where a veteran was brought 859 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 10: in and ended up winning the job. 860 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,280 Speaker 11: Yeah. I think everything that Patrick said is absolutely correct, 861 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 11: and you know it's it's it's almost like they're I'd 862 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 11: be interested to see if they do some actual kicks 863 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 11: in practice in front of all the. 864 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 7: Media, which they haven't. 865 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:25,439 Speaker 2: Really they haven't. 866 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 11: And I think Mike McCarthy, we don't see a lot 867 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 11: of one on one. Yeah, we don't see a lot 868 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 11: of one on ones and things like that. It's almost 869 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 11: like you're not we really don't want people to write 870 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 11: or talk about, Okay, they were six of ten from 871 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,839 Speaker 11: and then you're you know, we're charting all the distances 872 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 11: and stuff like that. I just I don't think they 873 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 11: want to put that out there that way. We've learned 874 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:47,840 Speaker 11: this about Pier being an ox star though. This is 875 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 11: kind of a difficult place to kick. Even though it's 876 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 11: sunny and bright and nice, they have trees all over 877 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 11: this place and the wind comes over these trees and stuff. 878 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 11: It does do tricks with the ball. So we've seen 879 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 11: some kickers. Look, really, last year they were kicking into 880 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,479 Speaker 11: a pre stiff breeze. It was like they were four 881 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,799 Speaker 11: of nine, there were you know, three of you know what. 882 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 11: It was just it was kind of it wasn't kind 883 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 11: of it wasn't pretty at all. And so I'm saying, 884 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 11: I think they're trying to kind of figure this thing 885 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 11: out right now, and maybe even maybe not in front 886 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 11: of the media. Maybe it's going to be after practice, 887 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:17,799 Speaker 11: before practice, those kinds of things. 888 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 12: You know, every time I've ever asked about kickers in 889 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 12: general since the Dan Bailey era, I've always been told 890 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 12: the same thing as far as like how easy quote 891 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 12: unquote it is to bring a kicker just because the 892 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 12: nature of the position, you don't it's easier to kind 893 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,399 Speaker 12: of give them a trial and then bring them in 894 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 12: and just plug them right in and all that. But 895 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 12: I've seen year after year when you talk about the 896 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 12: problems that they've had kicking the ball, doesn't seem like 897 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 12: it ever really works out that way. With a few exceptions. Yeah, 898 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 12: but even every time we head into training camp, I 899 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 12: feel like they're there they're always way towards the very 900 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 12: last minute to go into panic mode when it comes 901 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 12: down to the kicker position. So I'm just I just 902 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:14,759 Speaker 12: hope that they can take no I mean, obviously they're 903 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 12: watching everything, but that they can take action a lot 904 00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:19,799 Speaker 12: sooner than what happened last year. 905 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:21,399 Speaker 5: As an example, let me ask you this question though, 906 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 5: because I hear what you're saying, I wonder sometimes if 907 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 5: the kicker position is one that is very different than 908 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 5: other positions in the NFL. Like if you got a 909 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,760 Speaker 5: linebacker problem, you know you can go into the draft 910 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,319 Speaker 5: that year and there will be linebackers available to solve 911 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:36,400 Speaker 5: your linebacker problem. 912 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:38,479 Speaker 7: Right, you just got to pick the right one. You know. 913 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 5: You don't have that every year when it comes to kickers, 914 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 5: Like there is kind of this certain number of kickers 915 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,360 Speaker 5: that are out there, and that number doesn't seem to 916 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,840 Speaker 5: be changing very very much, and so you're really taking 917 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 5: a shot on guys that are unproven to try to 918 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 5: figure out if maybe you could kind of find one. 919 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 5: But it's not as simple as finding other positions to 920 00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 5: be able to get ahead of it, as you say. 921 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 2: Right, unless you draft one, right Because to your point, well, 922 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:06,800 Speaker 2: I was gonna say. 923 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 6: That's exactly we drafted a third round guy that didn't work. 924 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 10: There's there's not going to be any guarantee on any 925 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 10: position that you know, if any play. But I get 926 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 10: what you're saying, and you're absolutely correct. Here's what I'm 927 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 10: going with it, though, uh, because of the greatness of 928 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 10: Dan Bailey, and Dan Bailey was an undrafted I am 929 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 10: of the belief that that gives the front office confidence 930 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 10: and saying, well, we did it once, we can do 931 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 10: it again, which is generally true if I show you 932 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:39,880 Speaker 10: something once then But we're now so far removed to Ambars, 933 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 10: but we're so far removed from Dan Bailey that maybe 934 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 10: we should think a little bit differently as far as 935 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:45,320 Speaker 10: approaching the position. 936 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 11: Is what I'm saying, Well, this is where Derek and 937 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:50,320 Speaker 11: I grew up together here in Dallas Cowboys about the 938 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 11: same time, and they used to have a kicking coach 939 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:54,200 Speaker 11: you named Steve Hoffman. 940 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 6: It's Steve Hoffman. 941 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 11: Whoever the official sponsor for the Dallas Cowboys is for 942 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,800 Speaker 11: building projects and stuff like that. I don't know which company, 943 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 11: so I don't want to say, But whoever is that 944 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:08,840 Speaker 11: Hoffman could go to that particular depot place or wherever 945 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,160 Speaker 11: and find ten dudes and he would find a Pro 946 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 11: Bowl guy out of that. Never when I was working 947 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 11: with the scoun department here did I ever have to 948 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 11: evaluate a kicker because we had Steve Hoffman. 949 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 6: Steve Hoffman knew he would. 950 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 7: Find high school teachers. Tim Ceter right, sim was the 951 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 7: one that was a coach. 952 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 6: He had them all. 953 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,239 Speaker 11: He would just go down to the local store and 954 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 11: say pro Bowl kicker, and he would find them. And 955 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 11: that and that's where I mean. I want the days 956 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 11: of Steve Hoffman.

I want that day back where I 958 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 11: don't have to worry about this anymore, because what's gonna 959 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 11: happen is this head coach is okay with kicking field goals. 960 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,319 Speaker 11: It's gonna be tight, tough games he's gonna play, he's 961 00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 11: gonna be if he's calling the offense like he's talking 962 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,720 Speaker 11: about it. There's gonna come down to some kicking situations. 963 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 11: We've seen it before. So to Ambar's point, please please, 964 00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 11: please please make it a priority. 965 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 10: Right now, I'll to that point and I will kind 966 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 10: of pick dovetail off of it.

Will then 975 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:39,879 Speaker 5: dicate fish can be on third down, which make sure 976 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 5: you keep that kicker on the sideline. 977 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 12: So just be perfect. 978 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:45,720 Speaker 2: You don't have to be perfect. 979 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 10: We're not asking you're not asking better than thirty five 980 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:51,440 Speaker 10: percent on third down. 981 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean winning first down to me, I think 982 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,400 Speaker 5: winning first down to me, whether you're on offense or defense, 983 00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 5: that's really where To me, offense and defense matters like 984 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 5: first down. If you can win on first down, it 985 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 5: dictates everything else until you get to a punt or 986 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 5: you get to another first down, you know, And so 987 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 5: I think that's a critical down for the Cowboys. All Right, 988 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 5: we appreciate you guys joining us. We're going to be 989 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,279 Speaker 5: back on Tuesday.

I we didn't 991 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 5: get to a lot of the defensive storylines. We'll get 992 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 5: some of those on Tuesday. We will also have at 993 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 5: that point a practice that we have gone through where 994 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 5: the Cowboys will have on paths they come on on Monday, 995 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:26,760 Speaker 5: so we'll get to see a little bit more, particularly 996 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 5: on the offensive and defensive line, where guys start kind 997 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 5: of running into each other a little bit more.
