Well, I'm going 14 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: to start with the Cowboys Niners and then work my 15 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: way backwards for about ten minutes, and then we'll bring 16 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: on Matt Moseley, who's going to go back to the 17 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: Niners Cowboys. First of all, the last three minutes of 18 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: that football game was how not to manage the clock. First, 19 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: jimmyg dude, you've been in this league long enough. On 20 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: fourth and inches, he didn't have the wherewithal intellectually to 21 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: wait for Trent Williams to get set. I mean, Jesus, 22 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: that's high school football stuff. That's the knock on JIMMYG. 23 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 1: Simply put, He's talented, he's a gamer, but upstairs you 24 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: just can't trust him. He makes really dumb decisions. That 25 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: was a bone head play. It would have sealed the game. 26 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: There would have been no tension at the end like 27 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: there was. So that's why you got to move off JIMMYG. 28 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: I think he's a gamer. I think if I was, 29 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: you know, a Pittsburgh Steeler team, and I could get 30 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: him for a couple of years and draft a college kid. 31 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: But he above the shoulders. It's not talent. Jimmy can 32 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: move a little, Jimmy can throw. Talent wise, to me, 33 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: he's on par with Dak Prescott who just got the bag, 34 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: and better than Kirk Cousins and in the same class 35 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: with Derek Carr. But it's above the shoulders where Jimmy 36 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 1: G drives the forty Niners staff crazy. It's one of 37 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 1: the smartest organizations in sports, and at times Jimmy G 38 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: can be an airhead. Secondly, I'm not exactly sure what 39 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott was doing when he ran the ball with 40 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: no timeouts left, Again, that's just basic stuff. Tony Romo 41 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: was obsessed with him handing the ball to the official. 42 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: You don't have timeouts left. They were throwing the ball successfully. 43 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: That made no sense at all. And again, Dak's got 44 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: too many starts in this league to make that mistake. Listen, 45 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: the Cowboys ended up with what fourteen fifteen penalties. That's 46 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: a gregious and I think when you look at the 47 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys season, and this is sort of how I felt 48 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: going into the playoffs. I predicted they'd be a wildcard team. 49 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 1: One and done is that, and I predicted San Francisco 50 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 1: would beat him twenty eight twenty seven was my prediction. 51 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 1: When you look at the Dallas Cowboys, you got to 52 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,639 Speaker 1: have an A somewhere. You got to have an A 53 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: as a coach or an A as a quarterback. But 54 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: McCarthy to me is B to B minus and Dak 55 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: is a B to A B plus. And in the end, 56 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: Shanahan's an A. Jimmy's a B to A B minus. 57 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: But the A one, I think you have to look 58 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: long and hard. If you're the Cowboys at moving Kellen 59 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: Moore up to be the head coach and Mike McCarthy 60 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: in an advisory role. Jerry Jones historically has given coaches 61 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: a longer leash than I would have on several occasions. 62 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: I mean, he gave Jason Garrett a lot of time. 63 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: He gave chan Gailey three years. He gave Barry Switzer 64 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: more time than I would have. In fact, I think 65 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: Barry or wanted out more than Jimmy initially wanted him out. Also, 66 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: the two teams in the NFC East that we thought 67 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: were okay, No, they were sort of hot garbage too. 68 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: The Eagles were awful and Dallas played overwhelmingly poor football 69 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: against the Niners. All right, so let's go Saturday Bengals Raiders. 70 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: I like the Bengals to win and cover, mostly because 71 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: I thought the Raiders defense was on the field for 72 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: eighty eight plays against the Chargers. I thought they were spent, 73 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: and against the Bengals in the second half, I thought 74 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: their offense looked tired, they struggled to get a push 75 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: at times, and I thought their defense looked gassed. Joe 76 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: Burrow is a really special player, I do think for 77 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: the Bengals, though, I think this is the end of 78 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: the road. It takes steps to get where you want 79 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: to go when it comes to the NBA or NFL playoffs, 80 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: and I sort of feel like now winning the division 81 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: was overachieving. Winning a playoff game against the wild card 82 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 1: team wasn't. But I don't see the Bengals as a 83 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: team that could be to Kansas City or beat a Buffalo, 84 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: I just or Tennessee. I don't think that's a great matchup. 85 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: So I think this is the end of the road 86 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: for the Bengals baby steps, but I think they have 87 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: a chance to dominate this division for the next decade 88 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: if Zach, Taylor and Burrow continue along. They're ascending paths. Buffalo, 89 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: New England bit of a shocker. I've called Josh Allen 90 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: the Mike Tyson of NFL quarterbacks. He's flawed. He has 91 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 1: bad fights and bad rounds, but if you're not prepared 92 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: for him athletically, he is devastating. He is a knockout artist. 93 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: And I thought Mac Jones was okay, But the truth was, 94 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:47,799 Speaker 1: the Bills didn't punt. It was touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, 95 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: drive after drive after drive. And we all know Bill 96 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: Belichick is smart. But this new England team was largely 97 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 1: comprised of the same stuff Brady had for twenty years. 98 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: Great special teams, great coach in, great defense, excellent run game, 99 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: above average offensive line, and pretty average weapons. That's overwhelmingly 100 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: what Brady dealt with. Now, there were a couple of 101 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: years with Randy Moss and obviously Gronk and Aaron Hernandez 102 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: in their prime, but by and large, Brady always had 103 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: lesser weapons on the perimeter than other great quarterbacks, certainly 104 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: than Peyton Manning, certainly how than of Patrick Mahomes. But 105 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 1: the difference is Brady could extend those drives. Third downs 106 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: became first downs. The leadership, the preparation, the number of 107 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: plays you could run. Bill Belischick is still a great coach. 108 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: I would not be shocked. I'm not predicting it. I 109 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: would not be shocked if Belichick says we elevated mac 110 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: Jones value. We could move mac Jones. There are nine 111 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: teams desperate for a quarterback. Somebody would take mac Jones if, 112 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: in turn, Belichick, seventy years old or close could get 113 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: a veteran quarterback. I think that's something to keep your 114 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: eye on. Eagles at Tampa. I had said all year, 115 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: I was shocked at Nick Serrianni and the production of 116 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, and they've got really good first round picks, 117 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: and I said, I'm not going to take a quarterback, 118 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: but boy, that was an ugly one. And what you're 119 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: concerned with is not just that the Eagles lost, it's 120 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: how the Eagles lost. I mean, they didn't throw to 121 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: a wide receiver. They didn't have plus yards to a 122 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: wide receiver for a majority of the first half. And 123 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: I'm talking all up until about the last couple of 124 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: minutes of the first half DeVante Smith that I catch. 125 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: I believe this is a very run first, tight end 126 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: centric offense. Now the problem with that, of course, is 127 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: when you play average teams and you can control the 128 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, it's fine you play with a lead. 129 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: When you fall behind highly flosive offenses and you play 130 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: from two three touchdowns down, that offense doesn't work. So again, 131 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts could come back next year as the Eagles starter, 132 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: and I wouldn't be completely shocked. But you can't tell 133 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,679 Speaker 1: me that. Howie Roseman, the GM of Philadelphia, a deal 134 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: maker from day one in this league, is not going 135 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: to kick the tires on Russell Wilson to Shaun Watson 136 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: and make calls on Aaron Rodgers. You look around this 137 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: league right now? What do I always say my criticism 138 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:36,199 Speaker 1: of Baker Mayfield. He's great with a league, he's great 139 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: throwing on third and two. But you get to these 140 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: playoff games, You're playing from behind. Dak Prescott's playing from behind. 141 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts is playing from behind, Derek Carr is playing 142 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:53,959 Speaker 1: from behind. That's the separation between guys you build around 143 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: and guys you currently employ. I think Howie Roseman looks 144 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: at Jalen Hurts and says, hey, we got to the 145 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: playoffs in his first full year of starting. There's an 146 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: argument to be made. Even though it's an awful division, 147 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: they overachieved. But again, if you're Philadelphia, you have a 148 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: recent Super Bowl. What's the goal here? Getting into the 149 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: playoffs or winning the division? And Howie Roseman's the kind 150 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: of guy he'll give up five first round picks. He'll 151 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: give those up to get at Shaun or Russell Wilson. 152 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: Let's bring in Matt Mosley. Doomsday Podcasts been covering the 153 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 1: Cowboys for a long time, all Right, Matt Mosley joining 154 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: us from Cowboys Stadium. Let's start with the Dak play. 155 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: What's the explanation. You just talked Jerry Jones players, what 156 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 1: was the mood like? What were they saying about that 157 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: mess at the end. Yeah, they thought Colin that they 158 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: were going to get time. In fact, they thought they 159 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: were going to put time back on it to get 160 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: a final play And Dak even bumped into the umpire 161 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: at some point. I think the play what they wanted 162 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: to happen there is Dak to immediately hand the ball. 163 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 1: That didn't really happen. You see players sometimes, you know, 164 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 1: throw the ball back to get it spotted in time. 165 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,199 Speaker 1: It took too long. They felt like that that time 166 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: should have been plenty of time to get the playoff. 167 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: But what they're basically saying, and McCarthy was upset with officiating. 168 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: He thought he really thought he was going to get 169 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: a chance to run that play there. But if you 170 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: were watching it live as I was, and watching it 171 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: you were watching it on TV, and the thing was 172 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: up as it was going down, I mean obviously was zero. 173 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: So they felt like it was the officials fault for 174 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: not getting them set and letting them go in time. 175 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 1: So I know you haven't heard anything about any core 176 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: officiating last week or so in the NFL, and so 177 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: there are claims of that now here in Arlington, Texas. 178 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: But it is hard. First of all, I don't know 179 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: why Dak would run. I mean, Jimmy G similarly didn't. 180 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: Let Trent Will get set on a fourth and inches, 181 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: which is just remedial quarterback in high school stuff. Let 182 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: your tackle get set. If he does, the game's over 183 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: and Dallas never gets it back. So and I thought 184 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 1: Dak choosing to run, And I'll criticize Jimmy G. Dude, 185 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: he got fifty starts in the NFL. Come on that 186 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,599 Speaker 1: you're you're not a rookie if you're Mac Jones in 187 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: that spot. I get it. But I thought Dak choosing 188 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: to run. I thought it was a really poor decision, 189 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: was it not? I guess in his mind they had 190 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: enough time and it got them in a position where 191 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: they had a legit shot at the end zone. And 192 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: before that play it was more of a hell Mary. 193 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: I mean, they could run five wides and if they 194 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: had gotten the thing clock, you at least have a shot. 195 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: Is it a great shot? No, But it's a. It's 196 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: a shot. So I was surprised to see it. I 197 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 1: mean in real time, I'm like, what's he doing? Because 198 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: you know the time out situation and you're like, he 199 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: can't be doing that, and they and the you can't. 200 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: Here's the thing, knowing how these officials have been, you 201 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 1: can't really like put a game in their hands. And 202 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,359 Speaker 1: if you're going to do that, everything has to go perfectly. 203 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 1: You got to get the ball to the official. So 204 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: but again, think about how lucky they were even to 205 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: have a shot at the end. We think about all 206 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: the different crazy things that you talked about one play, 207 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: think about all the things that had to happen and play. 208 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: This is the Cowboys. This is the Cowboys. We're down. 209 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: They're down twenty three seven. The game's over, fort niners, 210 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: fans are are are celebrating, and then they come back 211 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: and they give their fans false hope. This is what 212 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: they do. Um, what was the game earlier this season 213 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: when they played a pretty good team and got beat 214 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: here ty five twenty two. You know they're down twenty 215 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: two seven. Yeah, Arizona, they're down twenty two seven. This game, 216 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: they're down twenty three seven. It's the same thing. It's like, 217 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, look at the comeback. Well, but when 218 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: when it really matters, at the beginning of the game, 219 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: they're just flat and McCarthy. I just talked to McCarthy, 220 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: We just got to visit with him, and he said 221 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: something along the lines of, guys, I thought by the 222 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 1: halftime we'd finally we kind of settled in a little bit, 223 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,479 Speaker 1: we'd settled into this game. I mean, can you imagine 224 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: being a Cowboys fan in hearing this mess? Well, Kellen 225 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: Moore is going to be a hot coordinator on the market. 226 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones is aware of that. Jerry said after the 227 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: game he had, you know, Mike McCarthy I read said 228 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: no indication he'd be replaced, and you know, cooler heads 229 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 1: generally prevail. Jerry has a history of giving coaches an 230 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 1: extra year. I mean, Jason Garrett multiple times was on 231 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: the hot seat. So I don't think McCarthy's going to 232 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: get fired. Do you see a scenario in which Kellen 233 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: Moore gets an offer, even if it's a high end 234 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: coordinator offer, and bolts and Jerry goes, Okay, I can't 235 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 1: lose my next head coach. Is there any scenario McCarthy 236 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,079 Speaker 1: and his future is foiled in Dallas. Well, I think 237 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 1: it might be more Quinn before Moore. I mean, first 238 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: of all, I mean if you watch the play calling today, 239 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 1: are people still like falling all over themselves to hire Kellen. 240 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 1: I think Quinn just has Quinn really has Jerry's attention. 241 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 1: So I think there's some thought that'll be able to 242 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,679 Speaker 1: keep one of them. I just don't think this goes 243 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: all the way back to Chan Gaily. Jerry's told me 244 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: many times, well, I felt I've made the wrong decision. 245 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: I gave up on Chann. They went to the playoffs 246 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: one year. I think they had a winning record, maybe 247 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: they were nine and seven or something like that. They 248 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: go to the playoffs and he fires Chan and he's 249 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: always felt bad about that, and so I don't think 250 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: he has the stomach for firing a twelve and six coach. 251 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: But have you ever seen a more fraudulent twelve and 252 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: six like in NFL history? I mean, six of them 253 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: are against the NFC East, and you saw the other 254 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: supposed alleged decent team the NFC East today just get killed. 255 00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: So that's how they get six wins every year.

Yeah, Randy 286 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: Gregory had a bonehead play in this game. I mean again, 287 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: Jimmy G did Dak. I have questions Mike McCarthy. You 288 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 1: know there's been this this sort of thought that because 289 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: I don't think I think the Cowboys have to get smarter. 290 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: I don't think they have to get necessarily better. I 291 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: do think they have to attack the offensive line in 292 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: the draft, and I think they you know, this league's 293 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: turning into such a high volume scoring league. I think 294 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: they could use another corner and a safety. Do you 295 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: think there are pressing needs personnel wise, in for instance, 296 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: free agency, Well, I think they got to make a 297 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 1: decision about Zeke Elliott. I mean they just went through 298 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 1: a whole year where he was banking up. Yeah. Did 299 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 1: you see the two running games today San Francisco does 300 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 1: They did what they always do. They ran for like 301 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty hundred and seventy yards. They's lined 302 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 1: up and did what they needed to do. And the Cowboys, 303 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 1: last I looked, ran for like sixty I mean Dak 304 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,439 Speaker 1: would have added something to it at the very end 305 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 1: of the game, but for the most part they ran 306 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: for seventy seventy five yards. Okay, So they're not constructed 307 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: to be a running team anymore. They were built for 308 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: this a few years ago when Zeke was good. So 309 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if fowards the total answer, he's good. 310 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: He's a good player, but and I don't think he's 311 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: a feature, Like I don't leave He's a bellcal type guy. 312 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: But I think you've got to think about moving on 313 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: from Zeke Elliott, and so that'll I think that'll become 314 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: a pretty big story. Yeah, I know. I think you're right. 315 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: I like their personnel again, I think they have to 316 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 1: attack the offensive line. In the draft, it's still ranked 317 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,360 Speaker 1: as a top five offensive line. Zach Martin is still 318 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 1: as good as anybody in this league at his position. 319 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: There's a couple of young offensive lineman. I like the 320 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: other thing. And it's no longer an elephant in a room. 321 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: It is discussed after every bad DAK performance is this 322 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:31,400 Speaker 1: massive contract. So there's an argument to be made, Matt, 323 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: they're hamstrong. Now they can move off a Marie Cooper 324 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: at their own peril. You know, a Mari has been 325 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 1: such a elevator of Dak's overall performance. So it's an 326 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: interesting situation. You're you're paying like Tyrone Smith a lot 327 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 1: of money. You're paying Zeke money, You're paying a Mari 328 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: Cooper money. In a perfect world, you can move off them. 329 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: But I have data that suggests Dak's not the same 330 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 1: player without Tyrone at left tackle, or Zeke or a Mari. 331 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: So to this is a really this was an important 332 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: year because those guys that you that have where on 333 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: the tires. You're getting to a point. Now you got 334 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: to move off a couple of them, right, because you're 335 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 1: gonna have to pay some of your other players here. 336 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 1: Like I feel like they were in a little bit 337 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: of a quandary here financially. No, well, just think about 338 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: their two like the defensive players that came onto the scene, 339 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: Digs and Mica are fine. You know, they're one's in 340 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: a second year, one for rookie, So that's not that's 341 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: not an enormous worry there. Gregory's an interesting one. I mean, 342 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 1: I think he feels a lot of loyalty to the Cowboys, 343 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 1: but they've got to decide what to do with him. 344 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 1: And then, if you think about it, they have a 345 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: they have a third wide receiver issue because they have 346 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup, who's a really good player but might get 347 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: paid somewhere. I don't know. He's been hurt so and 348 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: then Cedric Wilson's pretty good player. But I mean it 349 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 1: really comes. Yeah, you're talking about personnel. I have agree 350 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: with you that you need to surround Dak, but can't 351 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 1: we agree he was surrounded with pretty good personnel this year, 352 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: and at times he just went in the tank and 353 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,479 Speaker 1: he wasn't great today, he wasn't great. I mean, think 354 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 1: about he threw behind he had Cedric Wilson on one play. 355 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: They ended up going down there. I think scored on 356 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,640 Speaker 1: this drive, but he had a horrible throw behind him 357 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 1: is the horrible interception to a number twenty four over 358 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: there the Kawan and that was a bad one, and 359 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: he just I mean, I just don't it's really really 360 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: bad how streaky he is. And yeah, you know we're wondering, okay, 361 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: like who are the forty nine ers? What's their future? 362 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: What are they going to do with Jimmy g what 363 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: will they do with Lance? All that kind of stuff? 364 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 1: Like are we are we after watching that today? Are 365 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: you just that convinced that Dak's that far ahead of Jimmy? 366 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean it's hard to say, yeah, no, no, 367 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: I mean, listen, Jimmy is not the future of the Niners. 368 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: And Jimmy had a horrible throw today and Dak had 369 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: a horribly egregious decision in my opinion with fourteen seconds 370 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: left to run. But the gap between them, I've said 371 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: this before, Dak is Kirk Cousins with fewer haters. There's 372 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: an absolute ceiling. There's a clear ceiling with Dak do 373 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: most Cowboy fans believe that you do. To Cowboy fans, 374 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: I think right now they're so upset. They're kind of 375 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 1: blaming everybody what the Cowboys though, and even their fandom 376 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 1: can buy. I can't stomach this stuff. But all these 377 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: records and numbers, what happens at the end of the year. 378 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: Everybody just kind of goes, oh, man, this is one 379 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: of the best offenses in the NFL. Oh look at 380 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: all these Pro Bowl players. Look at the All Pro 381 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: I've been watching it for years, and it's just like 382 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: Dack had a great year. I mean, if you look 383 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: at his numbers, it's like thirty seven touchdowns and ten interceptions. 384 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: I mean, whether it was Troy Romo, whoever, you take 385 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,959 Speaker 1: that season usually, but then when you start looking at 386 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: how it played out. I mean I used to have 387 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 1: to do this with Tony a little bit. Twenty six touchdowns, 388 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: ten interceptions, and it was like, oh, he's had a 389 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: great season. It just didn't. It didn't play out like that. 390 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: You can't just look at those numbers. So I'm with you, 391 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: and I think I think it's really I mean, I 392 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: think we'll find out, and we won't find out tonight. 393 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: But somebody's gonna leak a story. Let's hope they do 394 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: it on the volume, and they're gonna say dak was 395 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,360 Speaker 1: playing with a torn whatever okay, at a torn shoulder, monsel, 396 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: and so we may get that one, okay, because that 397 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 1: then goes, well, wow, he put up these great numbers 398 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: even though he was playing through all this, or even 399 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,879 Speaker 1: though his ankle wasn't quite right. We'll get something like that, 400 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: because they once you pay a guy forty million dollars 401 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: a year like the one, they've got to protect him 402 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: at all costs. So Jerry and McCarthy can make evaluations 403 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: that are disconnected from what we see. Their evaluations are 404 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: just kind of out somewhere else, and what they do 405 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,360 Speaker 1: is to make themselves feel better about it. They think, 406 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this guy's such a leader. Oh he's 407 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: a leader of men, which is just like, I don't know, 408 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: I don't know where this came from. It's like maybe 409 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: one of those those mega churches out in California, but 410 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 1: it's it's it's he's he did not have a great season. 411 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 1: It was a very uneven season, and so he is 412 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: part of the problem. He could also be part of 413 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,199 Speaker 1: the solution. But right now, I don't think you can 414 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 1: feel good about the way things ended for Dak at all. Well, 415 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: they went six and oh against the NFC East and 416 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: including the Niners, loss six and six against everybody else. Yeah, 417 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 1: they were blown out at home by Denver, beaten by 418 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 1: the Niners at home, beaten by Arizona at home. So 419 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: we can say what we want. Outside of easily the 420 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 1: worst division in football, they are a five hundred team, 421 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: and I with that level of talent, that's not good enough. 422 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: They have seven playmakers. It's simply not good enough. Okay, Mosley, 423 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: you get a lot to do. Go do your stuff 424 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: with Edwarder.
