1 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: What up, everybody? It is the Cover four podcast. Yeah, 2 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:20,760 Speaker 1: well no end Loved and miss We've been gone because 3 00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: of scheduling and craziness holidays, but we are back songs 4 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: Dave Hellman, but we've got Jesse, Holly, Lindsay Draper, I'm 5 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: Taylor Starn and we have twenty eight plus minutes of 6 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: just pure fun happening here starring Frisco. And uh, you know, 7 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: Jesse said something before we got started here and he 8 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: said energy has been up. But I don't know if 9 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: that's just because you know, energy has been up. We're 10 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: all rested from the holiday. But I think it's really 11 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: the excitement of this four game win streak. Absolutely winning 12 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: cures all. It isnting cures all. But I love what 13 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: you said earlier this week on the show. Oh is 14 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: that okay? Yeah, four games is good? But is this 15 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: your standard? And it kind of brought me back down 16 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: to earth a little bit. But the only thing that 17 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,400 Speaker 1: I'd say, and I think Jesse did make a good point, 18 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: and I agree with you Lindsay, is that we don't 19 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: know what their standard is, Like we don't hear all 20 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: of their meetings and everything, you know, like what we 21 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,479 Speaker 1: think is their standard is just four games. What they 22 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: say at the podium is just four games. I would 23 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 1: say more of like the fans and myself like, oh, 24 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: like you think the fans are just buying into this 25 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 1: four game one streak. Now, not necessarily buying in. But 26 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 1: I think all the excitement, I think Jesse kind of 27 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:39,759 Speaker 1: humbled me and even brought me back down, thinking, oh, yeah, 28 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: this should be the expectation. They're seven and five exactly right. Okay, 29 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: let's get back down to reality here, because we thought 30 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: coming out of this, come out of training Canada, this 31 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: is a pretty good football team. Now. Granted, you know, 32 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: you never know what's going to happen in the season, 33 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: right long sais in the war of attrition, things happen. 34 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: You got you know, the all the immune disease happening 35 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: to one of your players, you have ankle injury, you 36 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: have an assortment of things that will happen throughout the 37 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: football season. But when we talk about the standard for 38 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: a football team, this isn't like we are the Cleveland Browns, right, 39 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: so when you when you get two or three victories, 40 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 1: you're like, who, Like, that's not our standard. Our standard 41 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: here should be at a win higher season. And so 42 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: while we can enjoy this four game winning stream, and 43 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: we should because it's not to sound like Jason Garrett, 44 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: it's tough to win football games in the National Football League. 45 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: But four games, it's just four games. It's not like 46 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: we've won four straight playoff games or if we're heading 47 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: down to the NFC East Championship game. Right, So it's like, 48 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 1: enjoy the four games, but let's remember what our standard is. 49 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: Our standard is still getting into the postseason and making 50 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: a huge run into the postseason, so that that thing 51 00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: that I was rocking the other day, that Lombardi trou 52 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: can become a realistic expectation for our football team. Yeah, 53 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: here's a good point that Brad Sham made on Cowboys Hour, 54 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: like three weeks ago. I think to Shaun Lee and 55 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 1: he was talking about the fact that this is such 56 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: a young team, like such a young team, Like if 57 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 1: you think about it, like we're looking at Dak zek 58 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper is like the top three guys on offense 59 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: and they're all under the age of twenty six. Like, 60 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: and when you say that, it always makes me think 61 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,679 Speaker 1: of how Dak You brought it up on the postgame show. Yeah, 62 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: he's in a league of records with wins in his 63 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: first three seasons or something with Brady and Roethlisberger and 64 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott never sat on the bench and learned behind anyone. 65 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: I think we need to sometimes, well remember that the 66 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: point that I was going to make. I apologize I 67 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: didn't get to it quick enough. But the point that 68 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: I was going to make is that think about it, like, 69 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: you know, like your freshman year in high school, Like 70 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: you go and you're getting ready for your classes and 71 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: you're still trying to find home room, and it takes 72 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: about a month or two to really get your feet 73 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: under your self, like you're trying to get used to everything. 74 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: It's a brand new environment. There's older people than you 75 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: that know everything. That's like the rest of the league. 76 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: For the Cowboys, you know, they're the seniors. But this 77 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: is what this team is developing into. I mean, Layton Vanderesh. 78 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: We did not see this until probably what I guess 79 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: the Eagles game is when he really popped out and 80 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: had his breakout game. People booed the draft night, like 81 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 1: think about that, and yeah, I am one, I sit 82 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: here and I eat crow. I'll take it. Fried Baked boiled. 83 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 1: However you want to give it to me because I thought, man, 84 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: we really shouldn't went up and got a guy like 85 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 1: Derwin James, will get a guy like Calvin Ridley, And 86 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: I was skeptical about the pick. Hey, I'll admit it. 87 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: And people on draft night booed when the Cowboys picked 88 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: Layton Vanderesh and now they're howling right they went for 89 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: the hos. I love that. Just a quick reminder, homies, 90 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: I am on periscope taking all of your questions for 91 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: the of the show. I apologize before I was finishing 92 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: that you were saying something in the sense that we 93 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: really need to look at, like what do we need 94 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: to look at? Are what are the still the weaknesses 95 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,679 Speaker 1: of this team? Though, like yesterday we had the funny 96 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: joke and we were like, what did we talk about 97 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: at lunch? And it was injuries. But it was injuries 98 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: to the offensive line. And that's more so what I 99 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: meant was that, like, yeah, we saw in the Eagles game, 100 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 1: Zach Martin is an iron man and he had the 101 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: knee thing and he came back in and still played 102 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: the rest of the game, but like, his knee is 103 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: not going to be the same for the whole year, 104 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: and we're forgetting DeMarcus Lawrence like still has like gimpy 105 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: shoulder a little bit like not to be a doctor 106 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: or to diagnose anyone here, but no, and this team 107 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: is playing beat up. But I mean everyone else says 108 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: at this point of the year too. But Zack Martin 109 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: was full in practice this week. That's a plus that 110 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: hasn't happened in a while. Cole Beasley just playing through 111 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,799 Speaker 1: a broken foot. But this is the type of mentality 112 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: and attitude that you have to have if you're going 113 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: to make this season. One to remember is everyone hurt. 114 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: Everyone is hurting at this point in time of the year. 115 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: You don't get too week what are we fourteen thirteen? 116 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: Week fourteen and not have some sort of injury and 117 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: that you know you're able to see the coach stand 118 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: you know, are you hurt? Are you injured? Right? Yeah, 119 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: everyone's hurt every single the day you enter training camp, 120 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: the day you get out of training camp, you're hurt. Yeah, 121 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: everybody has hurt. It's about now who is able to 122 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: sustain their greatness at this level no matter what your 123 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: no matter what your hurt is, how am I able 124 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: to sustain my greatness longer than someone else. So is 125 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,799 Speaker 1: youth then in your advantage. Yes, because of the fact 126 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 1: that you're almost like a stretchy ball and like you 127 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: recover fact just like keep going and it doesn't even 128 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: fade you. A lot of these guys don't have that 129 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: many miles on their body when you look at the 130 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: when you look at the youth size of I remember 131 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: were entering into the league, and there's so much stuff 132 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: that happened. You see the older guys, you know they're 133 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 1: going to see their chiropractice and then the massus and 134 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: their their weekly routine has to be insane. It's crazy. 135 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: It's hours and hours, and I remember being a young 136 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: player and I'm just like, what are you doing. They're like, man, 137 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: I need to do I have to do this and 138 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: this and this just to get to Sunday. Yeah, And 139 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: then as you got older, you go, oh, I see 140 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: why he was doing this, this, this, this and this 141 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: to make it to Sunday. Because as you get older, 142 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: your body just doesn't recover as fast as it was 143 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: when you're twenty three, twenty four, twenty five years old. No, 144 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: go ahead, So I just wanted to refresh you guys, 145 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: and they ca moo. Gruiger Hill situation happened whoo earlier 146 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: this week. Soaring Eagles dot com this morning and one 147 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: of their writers is talking about, you know, the headline 148 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: was loose Confident having fun ye for Cowboys, and I'm like, okay, 149 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: that's good. They're kind to ramp it up, getting a 150 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: little confidence after Monday night to click on the article. Apparently, 151 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: yesterday one of their players came out of the shower 152 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: in the locker room with a towel over his head, 153 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: just kind of like hidden, walks over to Gruisier Hills. 154 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: Locker media sprints over. They're thinking, oh my gosh, he's 155 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: gonna address this, like yeah, locker rooms being all quiet, intense. 156 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: Then he takes off the towel and it's like a 157 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: different guy and just like pranked everyone and everyone's laughing, 158 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: like everyone thought Gruiser Hill was going to come back 159 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: and say something about it, and then everyone was laughing. 160 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: Lose Confident. I mean that's kind of good. I like 161 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: that for this matchup on Sunday. I mean it's not 162 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: really one sided. It's the Eagles, and these teams know 163 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: each other really well. There's not gonna be any surprises. Yeah. 164 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: The biggest thing that I always think about, just as 165 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: of recent is the Dak first Carson Wentz debate. Oh yeah, 166 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: because of the fact that Dak's working season, there was undoubt, 167 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: there was like undoubtedly more reasoning to think that Dak 168 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: was the better quarterback. Between the too second year Carson Wentz. 169 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: Now the injury though, and him not technically winning the 170 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, I think still makes it kind of like, 171 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: even do you agree, I don't know if they're even 172 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,079 Speaker 1: I always look at their surrounding cast and Carson Wentz 173 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: their first year did not have what Dak Prescott had, 174 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: But now Dak doesn't have what he had his did 175 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: I say freshman year? Yeah, but see we're talking, we're 176 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: talking high school. It's all good freshman we were talking 177 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: about it. So his and in his sophomore year he 178 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: didn't have the surrounding cast that he had his freshman year. 179 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: They called it. Yeah. I think. I think when you 180 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: look at the two quarterbacks, is up until that game 181 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: where Carson Wentz went out within the injury, he was 182 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 1: leading the MVP. Yeah, No, it was no doubt. It 183 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: was devastating, like he was leading the MVP conversation up 184 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: until that point was that Week fourteen. I was like 185 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 1: Week fourteen last year, But can I can I address 186 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: something with the whole locker room? Who said whatever he said? 187 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: And I think this is the one thing sometimes the 188 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: thing that sometimes people feel fellow realize when it's uh different, 189 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: sorry this week yeah yeah, um, we don't know their 190 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: locker room, right, Philadelphia, And I'm just playing Devil's advocate. 191 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: We don't know Philadelphia's locker room, correct, we know our 192 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: locker room, right. And when Tank said what he tanks, 193 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 1: When Tank said what he said a week ago about 194 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: choking out that offense and punching him in the mouth 195 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: and see what those m efforts will do, YadA, YadA, YadA, 196 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: we were like, whoa, let's go and wet all behind it. 197 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: A lot of times, just because players don't have the 198 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: name or the stats doesn't mean it don't have the 199 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 1: respect of that locker room. So while we we can 200 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: from the outside looking in, we can laugh at that, 201 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: and I'm totally fine with laughing at whatever he said, 202 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 1: but we don't know how much respect this player has 203 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 1: amongst it. And I'm glad you said that because in 204 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: the article he Dave Spidero wrote this article. I'm sure 205 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: Cowboys fans love that guy, but he said the team 206 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: has rallied behind this and shown that they back him up. 207 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: They haven't kind of been like, oh, bro, you need 208 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 1: to keep right down. Just what you said, because sometimes 209 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: you think we don't know how they have names or 210 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: the staff. Was the Kyle wilbur here, Yeah, Kyle Weber right. 211 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: Everybody loved that, right quietly. This guy's twenty four, though 212 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: only been in the league. This will be his third season. 213 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: He originally got drafted in the sixth round by the Patriots. 214 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: Now he was with the Eagles last season for the 215 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: Super Bowl run. But breaking down what he said and 216 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: I get what you guys are saying as far as 217 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: like he's getting them support in his locker room, is 218 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: that he said, you know, the Cowboys always choked. Look 219 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: at Dallas's history. That's not true. Like that's technically not 220 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: Is he talking about playoffs? I think he's talking about 221 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: about all decades, Like I think I think he's talking 222 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: about the last decades. Flynn's I think you're right in that. 223 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 1: But like the Cowboys at five super Bowls, the Eagles 224 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,559 Speaker 1: history is nothing like that. See, now he's twenty four, 225 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: he's I completely agree. I completely agree. So we have 226 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 1: a question on periscope. Do you guys have confidence that 227 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: Dak can get the team into the playoffs. I'll let 228 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: you guys go first. Yes, because he has, because he's 229 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: done that before. I mean, that's what I always look at, 230 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: is like if somebody has been there before, then they 231 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: know how to do that. Granted that was a different 232 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 1: season they had the first round by it was kind 233 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,439 Speaker 1: of all set up in different cards, if you would, 234 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: but he has done that before. Yes, yes, to answer 235 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: the question, But I think the one thing that this 236 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: team has that the NFL is becoming a passing league. 237 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: Right it's it's a passing league. But there's two things, 238 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 1: and I don't care what the NFL becomes. There's two 239 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: things that will remain a constant in the National Football 240 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: League until the day that it shuts down. If you 241 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: can run the football and you can play defense, you 242 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: can win the playoffs. Yeah. I'm sorry, not gonna say. 243 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: The Cowboys right now have both of those. They have 244 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: the second leading rusher in the National Football League and 245 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 1: they have one of the top defense in the National 246 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: Football League. And even the teams that pass your Saints 247 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: and your Rams and your Chiefs, all those guys have, 248 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: or we'll have thousand yard backs in the backfield. This 249 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 1: plays into what I was going to say to this question, 250 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: do you have confidence that Dak can get the team 251 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: into the playoffs? Dak is not the guy who's going 252 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: to do this by himself, right, Yes, freshman year. As 253 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: we're saying today, what was it about? It was about 254 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: two one, four, It wasn't about four Zeke. Offensive line 255 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 1: defense now coming into play how it hasn't in years past. 256 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 1: That's what gets Dak to the playoffs is how he 257 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: makes the surrounding cast great. But Nate Newton always says 258 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: that he's great when he's a costar y. You don't 259 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: have to put everything on him with a bunch of 260 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: no names and expect him to shoulder the load. You 261 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: said something last week on a show and you were like, oh, 262 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 1: this might just be so cliche, and this might just 263 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: be so out of date and it's old thinking. But 264 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: defense does win championships. I mean, look at the past 265 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: couple of championships that have been won. It has come 266 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: down to major defensive plays. Malcolm Butler Seattle Seahawks, Legion 267 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,199 Speaker 1: of boom. You have the Denver Broncos with Von Miller 268 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: and DeMarcus Ware. I mean it really still plays true 269 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: because look at the Panthers when that ron out a 270 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 1: Super Bowl contender last week, your defense did that one 271 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: thousand percent. And look, I mean Drew Brees has a 272 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: great cast, but a lot of times it comes down 273 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: to Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers. It's come down to Aaron 274 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: Rodgers this season. Yeah, nobody else. And that's the thing 275 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: is that a lot of times you just you need 276 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: that extra piece in the playoffs because it's so condensed 277 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: and coaches have more time to break down a team 278 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: in the playoffs than they do in the regular season. 279 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: So you have to be able to you have because 280 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: offense is so unpredictable, right You Sometimes that the holes 281 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: are there for the running back to run through. Sometimes 282 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: the accuracy is there for the quarterback. Sometimes, like the 283 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: Saints offense, it's not broken. But last week, if you 284 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: watch when they played the Cowboys to where they play 285 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: the every other game in the season, they made those 286 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: contested catches every other game in the season. They didn't 287 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: make up against the Cowboys for whatever reason, good defense, 288 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: whatever out they choked him out. Drew Brees is normally 289 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: an accurate quarterback. For whatever reason, he wasn't against the 290 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense the day. Whatever it is. Offense at times 291 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: can be so unpredictable. Defense, on the other hand, is 292 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: one of the one of the staples where listen, if 293 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: I'm there, I gotta make the tackle. Yeah right, It's 294 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: like it's like I have to be able to line 295 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 1: up and do my job. And that's the one thing 296 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: when you get into the playoffs that you can depend upon. 297 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: I can depend upon my defense shutting, you know, being 298 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: what they're supposed to be, being in your gaps, being 299 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: in your assignments, being lined up straight, and doing that 300 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 1: over and over and over and over again. Now you 301 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 1: have offenses every out and again that sometimes they always 302 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: say what beats a great offense? I mean great's a 303 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: great defense a greater offense. So sometimes it happens that way. 304 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: But you can pay your hat more so on a 305 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: defense being consistent than an offense being consistent. Who's what 306 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: they've done. Rod Marinelli said, this is best defense since 307 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: I've been here. Yeah, I mean, and who is that star? Is? It? 308 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: Still d Law like, no doubt, no doubt why just 309 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: because he just has that factor this season. Well, he 310 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: I think he's the one player when you start talking 311 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: about stars, to me, who can wreck a game by himself. 312 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: And I think if we had to put our money 313 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: on anybody going and wrecking a game, I'm willing to 314 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: bet the house on d law And I'm not saying 315 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: that his supporting cast, doesn't you know lat and then 316 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: Jail and the other guys in Byron. But if there's 317 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: one bona fide guy that I'm willing to put the 318 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: bet down one and saying, if I had to bet 319 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: one play for one guy on this defense to do 320 00:16:55,520 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: something spectacular, I'm consistency And history says it's DeMarcus Lawrence 321 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: who started all of this, who started all this, this attitude, 322 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: this hot boys, this Taco Charleton, hot boy Taco. The 323 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: fire is from the tank. The tank is about to 324 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: be filled with dull adult bills. Yeah, what when does 325 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: he get paid? Can we talk about that? How much? 326 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 1: Just the day after the Super Bowl, y'all? They just 327 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: party all night long. They head to Jerry's hotel room. 328 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 1: It's probably overlooking gosh Hot Atlanta, Hot Boys Boys Atlanta. 329 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: Jerry just bust out his check book. He's like, what 330 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: do you want? It's a lot of few on. The 331 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: funny thing is and we just have like seven minutes left. 332 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: Unfortunately time flies in here. But the funny thing is 333 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: is that you know, yes, the excitement is real, the 334 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: energy is up. This week. There's craziness because you just 335 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 1: beat a ten and one team and now you're playing 336 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: a huge division rival to lead in the NFC East 337 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,160 Speaker 1: and basically now you have two more games to clinch 338 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 1: the NFC East going to the playoffs. But it's always 339 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: easy to buy into the Cowboys going to the super Bowl. 340 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: And I think that's because of the standards that's set, 341 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 1: Like the world is a better place when the Cowboys 342 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: are winning. Yes, in sports in general, like when the 343 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: Cowboys are winning, when like the Yankees are winning, the 344 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,719 Speaker 1: Lakers are winning, when the Miami Hurricanes and Notre Dame 345 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: football is winning, like those type of like you know, 346 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: figureheads and sports. It makes sports a lot more better 347 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: when those top tier teams are winning. And when the 348 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: Cowboys are winning, there isn't a better place to be 349 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: in an ain't even close than being a Dallas Cowboys exactly. 350 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: So Cowboys, let's say they win on Sunday against the Eagles. 351 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: That's five straight. Colts injury report had thirteen guys on 352 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: it yesterday, Yeah, and ten of those were DMPs on Thursday. Wow. 353 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 1: So you're looking at a pretty beat up Colts team, 354 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: a team you gotta take serious at this point. Andrew 355 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: Luck is playing great, could be you could have six 356 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: in a row. You don't want to mess with this 357 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,199 Speaker 1: team in the playoffs, then, do you? I mean, if 358 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 1: my momentum would be real, Yeah, at that point, if 359 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 1: you get that, if you get the win against the 360 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 1: Eagles and you get the win against the Colts, you're 361 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: in it. But do you what do you fear having that? 362 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 1: By right? That at this point you kind of have 363 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: to just do you know if you have to fear it. 364 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: But it's never been It's never played out great really 365 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: in the past, because when you have that momentum rolling right, 366 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: you're like, hey, let's just keep playing, let's just keep going. 367 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: I don't know, because hey, they just had this kind 368 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: of like long by break weekend after three games in 369 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: eleven days or whatever. Yeah, seem to matter. I don't know, Jesse, 370 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 1: You're making me think too hard. No trips to Miami 371 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 1: there will be no trips. I don't think this team 372 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 1: does that. No yacht parties in Miami, not veteran enough 373 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: for that. Young pups are staying here the facility. I 374 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: think when we were having our Garrett talk, the point 375 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: that I was trying to make this week was like 376 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: when they were three and five, like everyone was like, 377 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 1: wrap it up, You're done for the season, Like there's 378 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: no coming back from this. Like if Dave was here, 379 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: he would say, it's only four games. Your step seven 380 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: to five. Dave would bring us back down. Yeah. But 381 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: what I'm saying is in the sense, like the fans, 382 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 1: the outside noise was like, okay, like this team is 383 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: in a rebuilding year, like we're going to get a 384 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: new coach. Like that's what they were thinking, and that 385 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: was their mindset. The team was not ready to say 386 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: it's over. And that's where I was saying, is that 387 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 1: like no matter what the outside opinion of Garrett was 388 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 1: or what the coaching staff was able to do with 389 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 1: this team, is that they had their own personal like 390 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: motivation that nobody can even measure. Let me ask you 391 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: something that just popped into my head. So Jerry, I'm 392 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 1: saying Jerry, because Jerry went out and got a Marie Cooper. Yes, 393 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: his physical ability has helped the team tremendously on offense. 394 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,640 Speaker 1: But as a player, do you think when you see 395 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 1: a signing like that, do you think, oh, they're not 396 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 1: done with us yet, like you know what I mean? 397 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: Does that kind of psychologically do you think, Okay, so 398 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: they're still invested, so we better be invested or do 399 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: you not really care? No, as a as a player, 400 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: if I'm a receiver and they go get another receiver, 401 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 1: I'm kind of so that group might have been solved, 402 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: all right, a little salty, but but no, because Jack maybe, Well, 403 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: the thing is is that as a player, you already 404 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: have so much invested, so you have to play this 405 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 1: thing out. Like I spent my entire life getting to 406 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: this point, my entire off season, everything that I put in, 407 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: and this thing isn't done. So a lot of times 408 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: the outside world, the media, the fans, that everybody on 409 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 1: the outside can have an opinion. But the guys in 410 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: the locker, they're like, listen, bro, we got eight games left. Bro, Like, 411 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: let's we can And there's always that Hey, listen, if 412 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: we do this, we can get here. If we do this, 413 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: we can get there, so that conversation is all always 414 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 1: happening amongst saying as a player, was that a shot 415 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: in the arm to have a signing over that, you know, 416 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 1: as as a deadline was closing, thinking, oh, Amari Cooper's 417 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 1: in here? Was that kind of a shot in the arms. Yes, 418 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: yes it is. I mean again outside of the wide 419 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 1: receiver group, yes, everyone else goes, Okay, they got a ball, 420 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: they made a move. Let's let's go. But it's a 421 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: wake up call. It's a it's a wake up And 422 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,680 Speaker 1: if I if I think I know Jerry like, I 423 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: know Jerry like Jerry comes in before the bye he 424 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 1: has his famous listen, everyone's on notice. If you think 425 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: this season is going down the dream, you'll be watched 426 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: and you'll be replaced if half you know, if need be, 427 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: because we have a long way to go. And I've 428 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: heard Jerry Jones have that conversation several times at team 429 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: meetings before byes and for four breaks. They say, hey, listen, 430 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: it don't look good right now, but if you're not 431 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: still bought into this thing, you will be replaced you. 432 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: And then you bring a guy like that, they go, oh, 433 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: he ain't playing. He did give him a first round 434 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,239 Speaker 1: The only so now, yeah, I like, the only thing 435 00:22:58,280 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: I would say to that is that I don't know 436 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 1: if Jerry and the team in the front office would 437 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: have done that if the NFC East wasn't in the 438 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: full picture that it was at that moment, basically showing 439 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 1: Jerry like there's still a chance. Like if the Eagles 440 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:12,959 Speaker 1: were on that wind streak like they had been at 441 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 1: the start of last season and it was pretty you know, 442 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 1: certain that they were going to take the NFC East, 443 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: then that was kind of like, you know, wouldn't have 444 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:23,679 Speaker 1: been there. I think what they meant to do when 445 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: they did the Amar thing was like, no, we have 446 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 1: a shot. The only thing missing is this Amari Cooper. 447 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 1: I wish we had Amazon all or nothing this year, 448 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 1: like to hear who was standing on the table saying, look, 449 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: I know all of us have said we don't need 450 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: a number one wide receiver, but we need it. I 451 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 1: wish we had it every year because like, wouldn't you 452 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: want to know, like we would get all of our 453 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 1: answers that we've been denied all year long? What did 454 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 1: you learn the most last year? Right before we get 455 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: to something that Jessey wants to bring up so interesting 456 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: fact he's not here anymore. But do you notice you 457 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: never saw any footage from the tight ends room. So 458 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: Wolden just was like this ain't happening. Just snipped the 459 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: chord every day. Nah nah, no video from here.
