1 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:16,120 Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. This is Mick shot 3 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 1: screening live on Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the official 4 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys at now. Here are Bill Jones, Everson Walls, 5 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: and Nicky Spagnola. And here we are inside the s 6 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 1: WBC Mortgage studios at Ford Center at the Star in Frisco. 7 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 1: And there they were the Cowboys out on the practice field. 8 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 1: Bill Jones, Mickey Spagnola, Everson Walls with his Cowboys star 9 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: on at his own personal studio. How you doing, Everson, 10 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 1: I'm doing just fine, sir. Yes. And it was great 11 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: to see the Cowboys out on the practice field. It's 12 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: been a while since we've been able to see them 13 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: on the practice field. Mickey. Yes, although in on the 14 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: practice field, not out on the practice field. They were indoors. 15 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 1: I say, when you're out of the locker room, they're 16 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: out on the practice field. I thought it was I 17 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: thought it was a scene of like the Majestic uh 18 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: Serengetti with the wildebeeste you know, grazing. Is that you 19 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: know you talked about seeing around the practice field. Yeah, yeah, 20 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: it wasn't that house fact, No, no, it wasn't. But 21 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 1: it was good to see the special teams and the 22 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: COVID protocoling out on the practice. It doesn't matter whether 23 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: it's indoors or out, or you're still in intense COVID 24 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: protocol or further intensified. I should say, um, but yeah, good, 25 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: good to uh, you know, see a little football and 26 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: after the bye week and get back in practice and 27 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 1: uh they had you know, several guys that were back 28 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: in practice for the first time. Well, I guess they 29 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: did the kind of walk through Mick practice that they 30 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: did on Monday, but we didn't get to see that. 31 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 1: But that doesn't count, all right. So off of removed 32 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: from the COVID nineteen reserve list were Andy Dalton and 33 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 1: Tyrone Crawford. So Crawford will be ready to go. Another 34 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: benefit of having the bye last week because he wouldn't 35 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,839 Speaker 1: have played last week, and who knows if Dalton would 36 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 1: have played last week. So they're off. And the thing 37 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: that I thought was most encouraging was they started the 38 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: twenty one day practice period for Brandon Knight to bring 39 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: him off of injured reserve, and he was moving pretty 40 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: well in those individual drills. Now, I don't know how 41 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: much they want him to do. But he had his 42 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: knee scope for a torn meniscus, and normally those things 43 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: take around three weeks or so to return, unless you're 44 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: Jay Novachek and you basically have your surgery, you missed 45 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: the you take the bye week and are ready for 46 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: the playoffs the next week. I think that occurred. It 47 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: was the ninety five season, if I remember. Makes me 48 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: so mad because you're you're talking about it. I got you. 49 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: You're talking about a guy in two forty. There's a 50 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: difference between a guy two forty and three fifteen. Yeah, 51 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: and it always just takes a little bit more to 52 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,679 Speaker 1: get ready. You know. That's happened. A little bit more 53 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 1: has happened to one of my I think I've told 54 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: you guys this before, one of my tennis doubles partners. Uh, 55 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: he was going to have meniscus repair, and I said, oh, 56 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,679 Speaker 1: you'll be back in three weeks. You know. Well, Jane 57 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: Novichek wasn't probably forty eight years old when he had 58 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: the surgery, right, and three months later, three months later, 59 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: she goes, what happened to that three week thing? I 60 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: still can't get out. I said, you've been hanging around 61 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: too many top notch athletes, right, yeah, everything I said. 62 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: It makes me so mad when I hear anybody coming back, 63 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: even within three weeks or whenever, from a meniscus in reality, 64 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: partially torn meniscus from jogging like nine years ago, and 65 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: the doctor told me, Oh, if you were an athlete, 66 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: i'd say surgery, But you're not an athlete, so you 67 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: just go ride an elliptical or get on an elliptical 68 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: or ride a bite the rest of your life. And 69 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: here I am y for years and I can't even 70 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: jog down a basketball court without my knee. Man, I 71 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: could have done it nine years and so I tried 72 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: to get it done, like last summer and not this 73 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 1: COVID summer, but the summer before. Yeah, I'm too old 74 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: now because because at my age, it's like there's too 75 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: much of a chance of arthritis. But if I would 76 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: have done it nine years ago, the insurance would have said, 77 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 1: no problem. But anyway, go ahead. Don't don't feel bad 78 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: at night when I no. No, we have to be 79 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 1: we have to be clear those fags. We have to 80 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: be clear. Bill, you would never an athlete literally understand that, 81 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: don't really it wasn't really the age. Yeah right, the doctor, 82 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: he figured it out real quick. You're not an athlete. 83 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: So when I when I fractured my fifth meta tarsel 84 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: in my left foot, I got told the same thing. 85 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 1: The doctor said, Well, if you were an athlete, we'd 86 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: do surgery, put a pin in there, and you'd be 87 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: back in two to three weeks, he goes, But since 88 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: you're not three months or so, you so, so the 89 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: lesson for all of you out there. All right, the 90 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: doctor tells you you're not an athlete, don't believe him. 91 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 1: Believe doctor Jones. Please, all right, thank you, go ahead. 92 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: So anyway, and one person who wasn't at practice, haven't 93 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: got a reason for it yet, but I don't think 94 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,719 Speaker 1: it's serious. Randy Gregory wasn't wasn't out there, So we'll 95 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 1: see where that goes when the official injury report. We 96 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: really out there. Defense on Andy. Good to see a 97 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: Woozier out there, and uh so kind of a trade 98 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: off there. They're putting digs on IR and and um 99 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: a Woozier's uh activated off of IR. So we'll see 100 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: where that one goes. So that was kind of the 101 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 1: practice update. Um you know, more special teams and the other. 102 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: The other thing he mentioned when he Mike was asked 103 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: about citing another punter and put him on practice on 104 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: the practice squad, he mentioned Chris So I meant to 105 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: I guess he meant Chris Jones who had the surgery, 106 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: and and that you know, within a week or so, 107 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: he should be at least able to uh come back 108 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: and be the backup punter if they stay with miss 109 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: core muscle. Okay, it was the same thing um Sean 110 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: Lee had, and he had that two weeks ago. It 111 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: was so he could be it was after backup. Yes, 112 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, but that was his answer, right. He said, well, 113 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: Chris will be back out there. I didn't see him 114 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: out there, but we'll see where. We'll see where that 115 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 1: one goes too. So they basically said nice Wander will 116 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: be the punter going forward. They had worked out Mark 117 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 1: at King. The only thing I remember about that guy, 118 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: you guys, was that when the Raiders came here for 119 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: a preseason game during warmups, he tried as hard as 120 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 1: he could to hit the video board, like kicking the 121 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: ball straight up in the air, and he did hit 122 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: it right, And I remember I can't remember who it was. 123 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: It was one of those special teams coaches or assistant 124 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: coaches they go, yeah, but when you're in a game, 125 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: you're not going to stand there and kick the ball 126 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: straight up in the air. You do need some distance, right, 127 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: So but yeah, he celebrated that he hit the board. 128 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: And the big thing on the on the punter. And 129 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: why why the punter is an issue since the Cowboys 130 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: have a Thursday game after a Sunday game, and just 131 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: with the COVID protocol, if anything happened to Nice Wander, 132 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: you couldn't get another punter in here and getting cleared 133 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: through COVID protocol before the Thursday game, right, so you 134 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: might have to rely on Zeroline. If you know Zirlin is, well, 135 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: you know what I saw him, he can handle. I 136 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: saw him doing some trick shot artists stuff out there. 137 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,679 Speaker 1: He was bouncing the ball, uh, and it was coming 138 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: up about I don't know, two feet three feet and 139 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: then he was kicking it out in the air. Well, 140 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: here's the other thing. With Fossil and McCarthy there, they 141 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: would just fake the punt anyway, right, So absolutely no 142 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: sense worrying about that anyway. I think you're right, Bill, 143 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: I think he gives us a few more options that 144 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: you may not have with with some other kickers. I 145 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: love the leg is very He's just innovative before you 146 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 1: go off. In fact, reminds me a lot of Matt 147 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,079 Speaker 1: Barr when I was with the New York Giants. Just 148 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: guys that are novelties at everything that they do. And 149 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: then they they did sign Brelan speak defensive tackle us. 150 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: He's on the roster is an exception, so I assume 151 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: that means till he passes the COVID testing. UH. He 152 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: was a second round pick of Kansas City UH in 153 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. A matter of fact, he was their first 154 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: draft choice, sort of the Tristan Hill type, because they 155 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: didn't have a first round pick. He played that first 156 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: year with the Raiders, I mean with the Chiefs. Sorry. 157 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: He started four of the sixteen games he played and 158 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: then was injured coming out of training camp in twenty nineteen. 159 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 1: They placed him on IR and then he got suspended 160 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: four games for violation of substance abuse policy, so he 161 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: missed the whole twenty nineteen season. He went to training 162 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: camp with him this year. He was released on the 163 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: final cuts and then a month later the Raiders picked 164 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: him up, kept him for a month, and then released him. 165 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: So the Cowboys are going to take a look at 166 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 1: this guy. They you know, they're finding all these guys 167 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: that they are just sitting there and might as well 168 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: look at him, put him on the practice. The other 169 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: thing he consider about speaks. So he was a second 170 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: round pick in twenty eighteen and they were running a 171 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: three four and they switched to a four to three. 172 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: And so the only thing that the main thing that 173 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: intrigued me about signing Speaks is at six three two 174 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: eighty five or whatever, he is five technique in a 175 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: three four defense, he might fit that mold more so, Yeah, yeah, 176 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 1: that that could be. But they just need to stick 177 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: with that four three right right, exactly right, and especially 178 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 1: looking future, looking for future, I'm not looking for right now. 179 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 1: I'm looking down down the road. Yeah. If if indeed 180 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: they want to go to a three four eventually, well 181 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: they just better be able to play that four three 182 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: against what's getting ready to slam in their face on Sunday. 183 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:41,719 Speaker 1: That's right, Gary Kubiak's offense with the Minnesota Yeah. I 184 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: wonder how much if it's Kubiak, and how much they 185 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: stayed in what Stefanski had been doing their last year, 186 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: especially running the ball, and Mike Zimmer in his conference 187 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 1: called it a made made mention of that about their 188 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 1: kind of outside what do they call it outside zone 189 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: that they run getting the ball, and he talked about 190 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: what you need, and you need athletic offensive lineman. Obviously 191 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: you need a good running back and a guy that 192 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: can catch the football too, and uh, Dalvin Cook, as 193 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,599 Speaker 1: we know, is all that. So uh, that's probably priority 194 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: number one for the god Boys. They gotta shut down 195 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: the chef. Well his nickname, by the way, if you 196 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: didn't know that, Alvin the chef Cook. Okay, all right, 197 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: I'm sorry I blanked out a little bit because I 198 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: had no I figured I better throw the Cook, so 199 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: you guys get it Dalvin. But my son's a chef, 200 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: so I should have known this. Just you caught me 201 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 1: off guard. But then and one of the things start 202 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: thinking about this offense, those fags, this this is something 203 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: that you know the Browns were successful with. I'm surprised 204 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,719 Speaker 1: other teams didn't try it on us after what they 205 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: saw Cleveland doing. I would imagine they just didn't want 206 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: to come out of their own game plan. Figure and 207 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: that would be their own recipe for defeat if they 208 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: were to change their game plan just to suit what 209 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: they saw was successful by other teams. This is gonna 210 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: be a This is gonna be a tough game. Well, 211 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: first of all, it's gonna be tough for us to 212 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: try and predict, because as much as I'm trying to 213 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: pull for the Cowboys, I have to see that they 214 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: are they have They're gonna be successful and have made 215 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: the adapt Have they have adapted to what they saw 216 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: in Cleveland? Obviously they hadn't seen that offense since so 217 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: last time they did see it. You're looking at almost 218 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: three hundred yards rushing, so got deleting. I'm sorry, you're 219 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: looking at over three So when you so, so, when 220 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: you think of the leading Russia're coming in here, I'm 221 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: very nervous about this, but also I'm kind of excited 222 00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: to see just what kind of adjustments the Cowboys coaching 223 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: staff is gonna make. This is gonna be an indictment 224 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: on them as much as it is on the players. Well, 225 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: and by the way, Mike Zimmer was asked about had 226 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: you take a look at what happened with Cleveland? And 227 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: he said, oh yeah, he goes, you know, we'll we'll 228 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: look at that, but that's not the only thing we'll 229 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: look at. But obviously they kind of ran similar to 230 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: what the Vikings do now. So uh yeah, he said, 231 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: they take a serious look at why Cleveland was able 232 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: to run for three hundred and seven yards. But I 233 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: remember the end a round. If we take the end 234 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: a round out of it, then I don't really have 235 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: three hundred, right, and yeah there was two sixty instead. 236 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 1: I'm just really just just got there. Then that's like 237 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks later the Arizona game and you 238 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: take the quarterback run out and the Cardinals didn't run 239 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: for as many he gets them either or or the 240 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: last or the last sixty nine yard touchdown eighty yard 241 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: drive Kenyan Drake right end, you know, and it was 242 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: garbage time and they probably didn't throw for as much 243 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: if you take out the eighty yard touchdown pass to 244 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: Kirk right. So if if you didn't look at the 245 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: way we look at it, the Cowboys have a great 246 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: year going. Yeah, I try, you've got if you got 247 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: rid of the turnovers, you know, you know the other 248 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: thing on the offensive line, Rick Denison, I spoke, I 249 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 1: think it was yesterday about how the Vikings had a 250 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: transition on their offensive line after Tony Sperrano tragically passed 251 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: away just prior to the season a couple of years ago, 252 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: and Rick Dennison became their offensive line coach. And Dennison 253 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: has those same routes with Kubiak and Stefanski was with 254 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: him last year. Now Stefanski went to Cleveland and Bill 255 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: Callahan as his offensive line coach, which who's one of 256 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: the best, if not the best, in the business the 257 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: offensive line coach. So anyway, speaking of offensive line coaches, 258 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 1: well you go, you want to what's going on with 259 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: the Giants. Now you're four familiar with what's going on 260 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: there than I am, so you have had it. Well. 261 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: Former Cowboys offensive line coach who ended up with the 262 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: Giants when they didn't retain them, Mark Colombo got fired 263 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: today and the report that came out as he and 264 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 1: Joe Judge got in a fight. Now I don't know 265 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: if it said before he got fired or after he 266 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 1: got fired, but they had a replacement already there for 267 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. They he and let's see 268 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 1: if I can say it did did Julielmo did Julie Mo. 269 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: Way too many letters coming from Italian. I think I 270 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: got close to it to D gug L I E 271 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: l m O and you know he's got and you 272 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: know what, And I've seen three different stories and his 273 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: last name was spelled three different ways, and no one 274 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: got it. I don't know which is right, because one 275 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: hand round two and then capitol G and the other 276 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: one was D E. Capel. Right, I'm just trying to 277 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: So it was apparently a fist fight this morning between 278 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: Judge and I'm just trying to picture if Jason's first 279 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: trying to break it up. Yeah, that's where I was 280 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: handed Bill. Now you gotta remember Jason probably sicked him 281 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: on him. I go get them, you know. And the 282 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: weird thing is is their offensive line played better the 283 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. They've been they've been thank you, 284 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: they played well, right, I've been watching them. They actually 285 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: do improving their first round. Actually started to play better 286 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: at left tackle when they didn't assume as Thomas is 287 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: that Yeah, yeah, left tackle, left tackle. And this is 288 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: their bye week. Oh it is for the Giant. Oh 289 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: so they had too much time on their ya that's tried, 290 00:16:54,560 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: idn't hands Devil's workshop. So so I'm Jason Garrett. Jason 291 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 1: Garrett is in the wings. Jason Garrett is probably Colombo's 292 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 1: corner man, right just in case he gets a cut. Well, 293 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: you know, that's why Colombo get hired there. Obviously. I 294 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,640 Speaker 1: wonder if they brought their fighting should Judge is looking 295 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 1: at Jason kind of side eye right now, like, what's up? Man? 296 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: Do this on purpose? What a set up? I wonder 297 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 1: if they brought their training camp fight T shirts with them. 298 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: Colombo showed up with the Cowboy fight T shirt on today, 299 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: that's what happened. You're fired. Oh my gosh. Well, there's 300 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: a lot of firing going on out there on the 301 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: East Coast these days. I said there was a lot 302 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: of firing going on out there on the East Coast 303 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 1: or another one just that every day in one city, 304 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:59,360 Speaker 1: okay or district.

I just say that they think I 370 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,919 Speaker 1: came up with that. Yes, that's like, uh, that's like 371 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: my favorite broadcaster of all time. Ted Baxter on the 372 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 1: Mary Tyler Moore Show. I thought you were gonna say, 373 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: Ted Dawson, this just in there's something on your tie. 374 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: It was Ted Baxter. We are way too old, guys, 375 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: way way to anyone that's anyone that was born after 376 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy. I'm sorry, we apologized. I don't know my 377 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: daughter enjoys that dad humor. Yep, that's right, all right, Hey, Mickey, 378 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 1: speaking of bad humor, what else you got? Um So, 379 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 1: I keep hearing this about um Andy Dalton like he 380 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: didn't know what he was doing when he was out there. 381 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: I think first of all, everybody forgot how he finished 382 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: off the Giants game after Dak got hurt nine out 383 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 1: of eleven, and he led him to the two drives 384 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,640 Speaker 1: the kick field goals to be able to win the game, 385 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 1: and then everybody kind of remembers that they got beat 386 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 1: so bad by Arizona. What it ended up forty thirty 387 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: eight ten was that what it was um and and 388 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: and he ended up completing thirty four of fifty four 389 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 1: passes for two hundred and sixty six yards. But remember 390 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: they kind of fell behind, like thirty one to three, right, 391 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: but kind of here's what everybody running back kind of 392 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: fumbled it away. Here's what everybody forgets it was. It 393 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: was midway through the first quarter. There were five h 394 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: seven left in the first quarter when uh Zack Martin 395 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: went out with a concussion. What quarter the first first 396 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 1: quarter of Arizona play two games basically without Zach Mark 397 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 1: with backup, backup guys. And again here's what they had 398 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 1: out there. They had two rookies out there at the 399 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: same time, Steele at right tackle. Beotish was playing in 400 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 1: his second start. UH Connor Williams was the senior member 401 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: of that offensive line h in his third year, and 402 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: mcgoverning came in for Zach Martin at right guard and 403 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:40,439 Speaker 1: he was playing his first snaps in the NFL. In 404 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: the NFL, So that's what the protection was for for 405 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton and guess what he got sacked three times, 406 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 1: He got hit eight times. They had seven tackles for 407 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 1: losses against the Cowboys and seven passes defense. They lost 408 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: two fumbles there were two interceptions, and the one was 409 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 1: when Kurtpatrick is it Kurtpatrick? He grabbed a CD lamb 410 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 1: from behind and tackle and then the ball went right 411 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,639 Speaker 1: to him. So I don't want to hear this stuff 412 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: that Andy Dalton can't do as good, if not better 413 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: than when Garrett Gilbert did. And nothing against Garrett Gilbert, 414 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 1: he did fine. But Everson, you know, you pointed out 415 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: that that one play where where he missed Cooper for 416 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 1: basically a touchdown and he went underneath there was a 417 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: pass underneath. He dumped it off at you did it 418 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: to Pollard or the first drive game? Yeah, did you 419 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: see it? He had him in the slot. Yea, And 420 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: in the middle of the field was wide open and 421 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: Cooper's break into his right he was coming out of 422 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 1: the left slot and he had a touchdown pass and 423 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 1: he never looked there. He looked there before the play 424 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: started and then was looking the other way. So, you know, 425 00:25:53,960 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 1: and having said that, the quarterbacks looking. But but that 426 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: was the matchup that they wanted. He would have got 427 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 1: there at time. And so sometimes it's not it's it's 428 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 1: it's sometimes it's not what you do, it's what you 429 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: don't do. Sometimes they to get a quarterback in trouble 430 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 1: because you gotta make well. So anyway, point that out 431 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: for everybody that looks at that Arizona game, Hold they 432 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 1: only scored one touchdown, they only had ten points, Well, 433 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: there was a damn good reason why. Because that offensive 434 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: line was really struggling against that Arizona front. So that 435 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 1: when you're a quarterback behind a young offensive line like that, 436 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: you don't expect to have much help or much time. 437 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 1: You don't anticipate that, and if you play for that, 438 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: then you're fooling yourself. And that I think everything showed 439 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 1: up because of the pressure, is because of the hits 440 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: and because of the sacks. It lets you know that 441 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: he was gonna be in for a rough game regardless. 442 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 1: It was up to him to try and stand in 443 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: there and make it happen. But when it comes down 444 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 1: to it, we were clearly, no doubt overmatched offensively. That's 445 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: why you need more than one facet of the game. 446 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 1: I keep talking about that, That's why the defense has 447 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: to come to play. If my offense puts me in 448 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: us in a bind defensively and they threw an interception 449 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: or cause a turnover, and let's say it's deepen on territory. 450 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean defensively, we just threw up our hands 451 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: and go, oh well, it's time for the other part 452 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 1: of the team to come through. It's time for you 453 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 1: to help your other part of the ball. You know, 454 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: those guys on the other side of the ball. Those 455 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: are the kind of thing that's the mentality that winning 456 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 1: teams have. It's nothing unusual, it's no novelty. Winning teams 457 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: do that all the times. Teams with good culture of 458 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 1: helping out the guys on the other side of the ball. 459 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: That is created through time, and the Cowboys just don't 460 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 1: have that right now. And remember in that game too, 461 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: it was Arizona. It was zero zero after the first quarter, 462 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, the Cowboys fumble. Arizona 463 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: gets the ball at their forty six touchdown. Zeke fumbled again. 464 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: Those two possessions in a row. They get the ball, 465 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys twenty seven touchdown, and they hit it, and 466 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,199 Speaker 1: then they hit the eighty yard bomb touch twenty one 467 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: another it's twenty one to nothing. That had Now you're 468 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 1: throwing the ball fifty four times and then you're driving 469 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: down the first drive of the third quarter and you 470 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 1: had the holding call that was ten interception, and the 471 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 1: Cardinals rattle off like twenty like three twenty yard runs. 472 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 1: The defense couldn't stop him, and now all of a sudden, 473 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: it's twenty eight to nothing or whoever was and and 474 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: it was let me take you to the Washington game. Okay, okay, 475 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: Obviously the Washington game you had the sack fumble in 476 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: the end zone or it was a safety. Shultz recovered 477 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: in the end zone for a safety, and then the 478 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: defense couldn't stop him. When after the pre kick and 479 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: his nine nothing you're in a nine nothing hole. Cowboys 480 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: came down to make it a nine three game. It's 481 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: a nine three game. I'm looking at the play by 482 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: play on it right now, and this is early second 483 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: quarter a nine three game. And remember the CD Lamb drop. 484 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: It was on a second and ten on a slant in. 485 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,719 Speaker 1: CD drops it in and CD might have gone all 486 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: the way on that thing instead Instead, two plays later, 487 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys decided to go for it at the forty 488 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: five yard line on fourth and one with an offensive 489 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: line that was a state of what we all know 490 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: what it was like, and they threw an incomplete pass 491 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: Chase Young pressure on the play Washington, then two plays 492 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: later touchdown to McLarin over Treyvon Diggs, and it's now 493 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, what could have been a ten 494 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: nine Cowboys lead if CD holds on or at least 495 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: they're in position to make even get down in a 496 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: field goal range for a nine to six game, instead 497 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: of that all of a sudden by going forward on 498 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: fourth down at midfield, two plays later, you're down. You're 499 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: in a fifteen to three hole. And if I remember 500 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,479 Speaker 1: in that Arizona game, Gallup had to drop touchdown right 501 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 1: now'll take get a step further. Next possession for the 502 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys down fifteen to three. They got the ball at 503 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: the thirty six yard line, and that right guard Connor 504 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 1: McGovern who's in there for Zach Martin on third and nine, 505 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: the football team blitzes. McGovern doesn't pick up the blitz 506 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: they were the linebacker Holcombe came, he went and took 507 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: the safety instead. Holcomb comes up the middle. Zeke's in 508 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 1: no position to pick up the linebacker sack of Dalton 509 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: and you're punting the ball away and you can't stop 510 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: him again. And now it's dear down twenty two to 511 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: three with three minutes left in the second quarter, and 512 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: then you get the contrition. Yeah, but Andy Dalton camp 513 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: play and I'm thinking I'm sinking into my couch right 514 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 1: about name right exactly, know, just drending everything has happening 515 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: to doing the ball game and saying deja vu all 516 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: over the game. So the point of all this is, 517 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: let's see what Andy Dalton can do. Yeah, give him 518 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: a fair shot. I mean, and in fact, I think 519 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: there's there's a greater chance that Andy Dalton, considering Andy 520 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: Dalton's situation where he lives right here, there's a greater 521 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 1: chance that Andy Dalton might take another one year deal 522 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: next year and he might be Dack's backup quarterback again 523 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: next year. We'll see. Let's see what the last seven 524 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: games holds. And how about this little slice. So Mike 525 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 1: Zimmer was asked, so you were with Cincinnati and you 526 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 1: know all about Andy Dalton, and Mike goes, yeah, but 527 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: this is a different offense. He probably knows more about 528 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: what I do defensively than I know what he's gonna 529 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: do with this offense. Remember, very very Mike was the 530 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator there before he went to Minnesota as the 531 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: head coach and Dalton was the quarterback when Dalton first 532 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: came into the league and was leading the Vikings to 533 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 1: five straight playoff appearances, and I might add zero playoff wins. Right, well, 534 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: we know one of them. We can put on somebody, 535 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: a guy named pac Man Jones or no, no paying 536 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: on pac Man. Pac Man was in Stewart. Thank you. 537 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: It's the perfect. Yeah, it's the perfect. Yeah. There you go, 538 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 1: all right, we can Mick is going to come back 539 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: in just a moment because he wanted to do this 540 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: yesterday and we got talking to something else.

I've got to look. 593 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: I can't wait. All right, Mickey, tell us about the 594 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: NFC East. Yes, So what we need to understand why 595 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: everybody keeps saying, uh, you know, the Cowboys are kind 596 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 1: of still in this they're in last place two and seven. Uh, 597 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 1: they're only one win behind Philadelphia three to five and one. 598 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: Washington second at three and seven, or the Giants are 599 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: in second at three and seven, Washington is next at 600 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:02,320 Speaker 1: two and seven, and the Cowboys, because they lost to Washington, 601 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 1: are technically in last place. But let's look at the 602 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 1: remaining schedule of all these teams. Here's the Eagles. Here's 603 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: their next five games. You tell me how they're gonna do. 604 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 1: They got to play Cleveland six Cleveland at Cleveland, they 605 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 1: six and three, They play Seattle six and three, They 606 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:27,280 Speaker 1: play Green Bay seven and two, they play New Orleans 607 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: seven and two, and they play Arizona six and three 608 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,800 Speaker 1: before they get to the Cowboys in Washington to finish 609 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 1: off their next seven games. That is an opponent record 610 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: of thirty six and twenty seven with a point five 611 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: seven seven winning percentage. So you're telling me, headed to 612 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: week sixteen, the Eagles are going to be three ten 613 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: and one. They're going to be how many times I 614 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: think they're gonna win in those five games? Right? What 615 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: are the percentage eleveland's Seattle, Green Bay, New Orleans and 616 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:08,280 Speaker 1: at Arizona A right, and always take those teams right there, 617 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: and take out the NFC East teams, that winning percentage 618 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: is even more daunting. So I don't know if you 619 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 1: got to calculate there, but you can take out the Yeah, 620 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 1: and they got the Giants and Cowboy and Everson. When 621 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 1: I get done with this, remind me I've got a 622 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 1: neat stat on that too, by the NFC East. Okay, Okay, 623 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 1: So now the Giants their next seven games Cincinnati two 624 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: six and one, Seattle six and three, Arizona six and three, 625 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: Cleveland six and three, Baltimore six and three, and then 626 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 1: they finished the season against the Cowboys. So their opponent 627 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 1: record twenty eight, twenty five and one, five eighteen winning percentage. Okay, 628 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:57,400 Speaker 1: then we go to so that's four teams with winning records. 629 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: Let me ask you to the final Giants next week 630 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:05,879 Speaker 1: win at Cincinnati. Who knows, all right, Let's say they 631 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 1: don't win, all right, they don't win that means they're 632 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 1: to lose five in a row. That puts them at 633 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 1: three and twelve going into the Dallas. Okay, so we 634 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: got we got the Eagles at three ten and one 635 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 1: going into the Dallas game Week sixteen, and we got 636 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 1: the Giants at three and twelve going into the last 637 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,239 Speaker 1: game of the season against Dallas. Okay, there we go, 638 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: all right. Now we go to Washington. They've got they've 639 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 1: got the soft serve one here their last seven games Cincinnati, Dallas, Pittsburgh, 640 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 1: San Francisco, Seattle, Carolina, and then Philadelphia. So their opponent 641 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: record is twenty nine thirty four and two for a 642 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 1: four to forty six winning percentage. Now we know what 643 00:38:53,080 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have left right at Minnesota, Washington, Baltimore, at Baltimore, Cincinnati, 644 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: San Francisco, the Giants, and Philadelphia. That opponent record is 645 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 1: twenty three thirty four in two. So that's the worst 646 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 1: of all the teams in the NFC East, or maybe 647 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: I should say the best of whatever way you're looking 648 00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 1: at it. But that opponent record is the lowest of 649 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 1: any of them going So again, who knows the Cowboys 650 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: have to play one team with a winning record? I 651 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 1: get it. Minnesota and San Francisco are both four and five. 652 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 1: Washington plays two teams with winning records, one that hasn't 653 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 1: been beaten yet. Pittsburgh. The Giants five teams with winning 654 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: records and are four teams, and the Eagles with five teams. 655 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:51,759 Speaker 1: So those teams and the Cowboys have already played all 656 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: these teams and basically lost, right if you look at it, 657 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 1: they lost the Seattle, Arizona, Cleveland, they got to play Baldimore, Yas. 658 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 1: That's the Giants. And then for the Eagles, they've lost 659 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:08,399 Speaker 1: to Cleveland, Seattle, and Arizona along with Washington by the way, 660 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 1: So those are the teams these guys got to play. 661 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: So this is gonna be, This is gonna be. It's 662 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,959 Speaker 1: gonna go down to the wire. It's gonna be who 663 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 1: can win the NFC East games because there's gonna be 664 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: tie then the division records going to be the tie breaker. 665 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:32,839 Speaker 1: You watch, now, go ahead, how about this Pittsburgh undefeated. 666 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,960 Speaker 1: They're three and oh against the NFC East so far, 667 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 1: they got one one left. Seattle is one and oh. 668 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: They beat the Cowboys, they got to play the other 669 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: three teams. The Rams swept the NFC East they're four 670 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: and oh. They're two and three against the rest of 671 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 1: the NFL and Arizona two and oh. San Francisco now 672 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: is one and one. So here's what I figured out 673 00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: about the NFC West, because it's the toughest division, right 674 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: those teams are eight and one against the NFC East. 675 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: Against the rest of the league, they're fourteen and fourteen. 676 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:18,360 Speaker 1: So the NFC East is making the NFC West look great. Yes, absolutely, 677 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 1: they've sot The NFC West total is twenty two and fifteen. 678 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 1: But they're eight and one against the NFC East in 679 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 1: fourteen and fourteen against the rest of the league. So 680 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 1: are they good pudding amongst themselves? Yeah? Yeah, are they good? 681 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:44,879 Speaker 1: I don't well maybe, but as bad as everybody says 682 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 1: the NFC East is, they're making the NFC West, which 683 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 1: is the division that has only one team with a 684 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 1: losing record. So, having said that, how many wins is 685 00:41:55,760 --> 00:42:01,439 Speaker 1: it going to take to win the NFC East six? 686 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 1: Where do the Cowboys have to get to six? Ever? 687 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:09,800 Speaker 1: Since says five, five and eleven, I said five? Yeah? 688 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 1: All right now, and keep in mind that since the 689 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: Eagles have that tie against Cincinnati, if they win two 690 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 1: of the remaining seven games, they get to five, the 691 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,280 Speaker 1: Cowboys have to get to six. Right, So the Cowboys 692 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: would have to win four of their last seven, right. 693 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 1: I think if the Cowboys go four and three the 694 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,839 Speaker 1: rest of the way to get to six and ten 695 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: on the season, they've got a pretty good shot at 696 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: winning the NFC East because I'm not sure that the 697 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 1: Eagles can win more than two. Yeah the way, I 698 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:48,359 Speaker 1: mean what we So, that's that's why schedule to end it. 699 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,959 Speaker 1: That's why you don't give up. That's why you don't 700 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,879 Speaker 1: give up. You just keep playing, and you're hoping that 701 00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:58,720 Speaker 1: these young guys that have been playing more continue to improve. 702 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,760 Speaker 1: And we're gonna find out. We will find out about 703 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: this run defense for sure on Sunday when they have 704 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:09,359 Speaker 1: to go up against the chef, which, by the way, 705 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 1: he has a and the other hold on he has 706 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 1: a charity and good he has a charity. They have 707 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,359 Speaker 1: a food truck and he serves food out of the 708 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 1: food truck. I believe I read that's how the chef started, 709 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 1: not to mention cook really yeah, it really interesting. Just 710 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 1: came up with it just because of the them. No, 711 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 1: I was just gonna say the Eagles have the worst 712 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,959 Speaker 1: UH schedule or at least the toughest schedule to end it. 713 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:40,440 Speaker 1: And so that, like you said, that does give the 714 00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 1: Cowboys a chance. But I don't want to start thinking 715 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: about tanking a season. First of all, we talked about 716 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 1: this there, tanking. Maybe we did it and I didn't 717 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,279 Speaker 1: know it right one in fifteen nineteen eighty nine, maybe 718 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 1: we were taken. I thought we were playing hard. And 719 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,279 Speaker 1: also two and fourteen, if I'm not mistaken, the two 720 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:03,280 Speaker 1: and fourteen in thirteen to end Tom Ladry's season. Nobody 721 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 1: ever thought about tanking, you know, nineteen eighty eight. I mean, 722 00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 1: as bad as we were, it's just not part of 723 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 1: your DNA as a as an organization. And let's look 724 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 1: at it. The Jets have had the number one pick. 725 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 1: How many years have the Jets had the number one pick? 726 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 1: Let's say in the last ten years. It hadn't done 727 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 1: jack for them. It hadn't done jack for them. You 728 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 1: can look at the Knicks. You can look at the 729 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 1: Knicks and say, how how did that work for them? 730 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 1: Every time you look up there in the lot of it, 731 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter. Eventually, you're gonna have to share 732 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 1: what you're worth as a player and as an organization, 733 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 1: and I'm with use facts this team has. They cannot 734 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:46,040 Speaker 1: give up You've got I hate The only thing I 735 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:48,080 Speaker 1: hate about this game is when it comes to the 736 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,759 Speaker 1: running game and how important that is to stop it. 737 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 1: And it's an exception to the rule. You see, we 738 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,919 Speaker 1: won't be besides the Browns. We really won't. I don't 739 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 1: think we're gonna be playing any other team that comes 740 00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: out with this running philosophy. So I hate to have 741 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,760 Speaker 1: to hang our hat on what happens this weekend because 742 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: it's such a unique running situation as far as your 743 00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 1: opponent is concerned. I'm hoping that we could be good 744 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:19,399 Speaker 1: against it, and that could really give a telltale sign 745 00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 1: of how our run defense is going to be afterwards 746 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:25,080 Speaker 1: and into the future. But I don't think they're gonna 747 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:28,439 Speaker 1: see another running game like this one, so it's kind 748 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 1: of hard for me to say what our defense is 749 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 1: going to look like coming into this game and leaving 750 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 1: this game. I don't know if that's going to be 751 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,319 Speaker 1: the barometer that we want to look at necessarily as Fags, 752 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:44,360 Speaker 1: because we haven't seen, besides the Browns, any other team 753 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 1: that has this type of running philosophy with this personnel. 754 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 1: It's almost like they're the exceptions to what they're going 755 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:54,120 Speaker 1: to see for the rest of the year. All I 756 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 1: gotta say is, if you could hold them to one 757 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,239 Speaker 1: hundred yards rushing, you probably have a chance to win. 758 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:02,839 Speaker 1: But if they get one hundred and fifty, I hope 759 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,439 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean the Kirk Cousins on fire. I hope 760 00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean the Cousins on fire. That that cannot happen. 761 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: That cannot happen. That's what you have to take your 762 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 1: chance on. Right, all right, we're out of time. I 763 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:18,879 Speaker 1: will say this or Dan Graziano reporting. The NFL sent 764 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 1: a memo to teams today informing them that as of 765 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 1: this Saturday, all thirty two teams must operate under the 766 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 1: league's intensive COVID nineteen protocols for the remainder of the season. 767 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 1: That means virtual meetings, mask on the practice field, etc. 768 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 1: So the Cowboys ahead of the curve on that already implemented. 769 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,479 Speaker 1: We and we mentioned that yesterday about how they've put 770 00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:46,760 Speaker 1: the coaches and the rest of the staff that's around 771 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,160 Speaker 1: the team on a daily basis in a bubble. And 772 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 1: the other thing they're doing is Jerry Jones, the Cowboys 773 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:58,719 Speaker 1: will pay for family members coming to visit during the holidays. 774 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 1: He will pay for them to be tested so they 775 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:05,680 Speaker 1: can enter the hotel bubble and be with the coaches 776 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,480 Speaker 1: and members of the staff. So that's one of the 777 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 1: extensions of what we talked about yesterday. We got further 778 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 1: clarification of that, and Mike McCarthy said, basically, this bubble 779 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 1: at the hotel next door is for the remainder of 780 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:22,960 Speaker 1: the season, and now the NFL has followed SUPERGA and 781 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:29,319 Speaker 1: if things get bad, there's always room on the yacht. 782 00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 1: There you go. That's right, the Cowboys put out to sea. Yeah, 783 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:38,800 Speaker 1: all right. That does it for mix shots for this Wednesday, 784 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:42,759 Speaker 1: and we will see you again tomorrow. This has been 785 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 1: a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the Dallas 786 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,240 Speaker 1: Cowboys Football Club.
