<v Speaker 1>Cowboys just won the game. She's like, Okay, that's great whatever.

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:47.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm just trying to remember if I actually was watching

0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:50.720
<v Speaker 1>the game on TV, I was dying. I was happy

0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 1>to be watching the game. There was no other game

0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:57.160
<v Speaker 1>on team. It was a playoffs, a wild card playoff games. Yeah,

0:01:57.200 --> 0:02:01.440
<v Speaker 1>but I might have been working. He was. That was

0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:06.160
<v Speaker 1>my first year, nice out of college. Really, yeah, Missouri

0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:10.160
<v Speaker 1>wasn't in a bowl game. I was. Yeah, he was

0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:13.920
<v Speaker 1>in Chicago. I was working in Anderson, South Carolina. I

0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:17.720
<v Speaker 1>was gonna say he was somewhere Mississippi, somewhere down there.

0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:20.880
<v Speaker 1>I was shocking a place where Italians are just revered

0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:25.280
<v Speaker 1>all the time. Yeah. Let me tell you how many

0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:28.120
<v Speaker 1>back in nineteen seventy six, how many times I was

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:32.080
<v Speaker 1>called Yankee down there? And you might as well go

0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:36.399
<v Speaker 1>back home, right? Did you should have adopted an accent?

0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:42.840
<v Speaker 1>Appreciate me one they knew you were Yankee by the

0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 1>way you just typed your work. I think one of

0:02:45.760 --> 0:02:47.760

<v Speaker 1>years old, good thing we didn't have sixty two can

0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:38.640
<v Speaker 1>thank god you do that. But that's why I knew

0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:42.520
<v Speaker 1>I was bound to be a cowboy. That day that

0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:46.359
<v Speaker 1>sealed it for growing up in Hamilton Park. I died

0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:48.360
<v Speaker 1>with every loss. I know you did too. Of the

0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>Kings used to kick our butts before that day, so

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:57.280
<v Speaker 1>Vikings owned us still high school then I was sixteen, Yes, yeah,

0:05:57.360 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 1>I was junior junior in high school. Yeah, and uh,

0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:03.560
<v Speaker 1>I hated the Purple people either because they would kick

0:06:03.600 --> 0:06:05.960
<v Speaker 1>out butts every time. And this was the time we

0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.000
<v Speaker 1>find the guy. You know what kind of did it

0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:11.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of in the in the brain of the Vikings

0:06:11.120 --> 0:06:13.679
<v Speaker 1>did it? Did it? Did it? Should it did? Because

0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:16.400
<v Speaker 1>before that was Chuck Foreman and all those guys for

0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:20.320
<v Speaker 1>talking to him. Yeah, they had talent on them. They

0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 1>kept going to the Super bowls, kept losing them, kept

0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 1>losing them to him. Not as bad as Buffalo, but yeah,

0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:31.920
<v Speaker 1>what hell? Four? It's four depends on if you're a

0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:35.960
<v Speaker 1>Vikings fan or not. Right, well, so good. That's a

0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.680
<v Speaker 1>good way to kick off the show. I still fell

0:06:39.040 --> 0:06:43.760
<v Speaker 1>feel the sopha in my nose. All right, Mickey, so

0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:45.599
<v Speaker 1>what do you what do you you got? Oh? Wow,

0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:48.400
<v Speaker 1>you got a legal pad full of stuff. You got

0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:51.920
<v Speaker 1>papers strewn across the table in front of you. So

0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:55.640
<v Speaker 1>today we'd like to start. Today's the first day that

0:06:55.880 --> 0:07:01.640
<v Speaker 1>teams without head coaches can ask for permission UH to

0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:07.520
<v Speaker 1>interview assistant coaches in the league. And it's being reported

0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:13.360
<v Speaker 1>that Jacksonville has asked permission of the Cowboys for Dan

0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:19.760
<v Speaker 1>Quinn and Kellen Moore UH and also have asked permission

0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:25.640
<v Speaker 1>UH for Doug Peterson, Todd Bowles and Byron Leftwich. Well,

0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:28.800
<v Speaker 1>they don't have to ask permission for for Peter Peterson.

0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.640
<v Speaker 1>They just want to interview us. And I think they

0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>already did brought him because Peterson didn't have a job, right,

0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:39.880
<v Speaker 1>and then Todd Bowles and Byron Leftwich both at Tampa Bay. Right,

0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 1>So that's kicked off the start. Who's the other team?

0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:48.520
<v Speaker 1>That's there's two teams need to already fired their coaches.

0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:55.880
<v Speaker 1>It was jack it was what Jacksonville and the Raiders Sarraiders,

0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:59.200
<v Speaker 1>that's right. Well, I don't know Besacchi is going to

0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:01.800
<v Speaker 1>get him in the play off. He may he may

0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:07.880
<v Speaker 1>earn that job. Can they interview him? So do we

0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:13.480
<v Speaker 1>have anyone? Do we have any of Dan's disciples? Uh?

0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:16.400
<v Speaker 1>And and I'll get to that and so uh. Quinn

0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:21.000
<v Speaker 1>was asked about it on Monday and his response was,

0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:24.760
<v Speaker 1>I'll be ready if the right scenario presents itself. I

0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:29.200
<v Speaker 1>wasn't coming here to look what my next job would be.

0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to come here and have a blast and

0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:35.880
<v Speaker 1>hopefully kick ass and make an it. Well he's doing that.

0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:40.440
<v Speaker 1>So and then Kellen Moore's response on Friday, if the

0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:45.400
<v Speaker 1>opportunity shows up, that would be awesome. But we've got

0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:48.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot to take care of with this thing here first.

0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:55.000
<v Speaker 1>So what you would expect the coaches to say? Uh,

0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:58.199
<v Speaker 1>Mike McCarthy, you know the head coach always it's definitely

0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:04.319
<v Speaker 1>well deserving and they're ready, so you embrace that basically, opportunity.

0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I think these jobs are hired to get. So that

0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:12.800
<v Speaker 1>was his response on Monday during his media session. Okay,

0:09:12.840 --> 0:09:15.560
<v Speaker 1>and so now what is the process If they want

0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:19.600
<v Speaker 1>they want to interview them, when can they interview them?

0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:23.400
<v Speaker 1>So I read because the process used to be that

0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:27.200
<v Speaker 1>we had to wait until after the season, right, And

0:09:27.280 --> 0:09:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I one of the reports said that for the Cowboy

0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:35.160
<v Speaker 1>coaches that was going to be virtually so somebody in

0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:38.000
<v Speaker 1>to get them away from what's going on. Another thing

0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:40.720
<v Speaker 1>that's come from the pandemic where you can just zoom

0:09:40.720 --> 0:09:44.160
<v Speaker 1>an interview and do something face to face, right yea,

0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:48.720
<v Speaker 1>And so they can do that as early as this week.

0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:51.880
<v Speaker 1>They starting today if they get permission, because today's the

0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:53.559
<v Speaker 1>first day. I think we're going to put a game

0:09:53.600 --> 0:09:55.360
<v Speaker 1>plane in today, So we're not going to do We're

0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:58.480
<v Speaker 1>not going to that. But once the hay is in

0:09:58.520 --> 0:10:01.360
<v Speaker 1>the barn, as they say, maybe even Friday, I think

0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:03.240
<v Speaker 1>will approve that. What do you think? So it said

0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:06.359
<v Speaker 1>that they're allowed to ask for permission in weeks seventeen

0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:09.880
<v Speaker 1>and eighteen of the season and then they can didn't

0:10:09.880 --> 0:10:13.440
<v Speaker 1>say anything about week nineteen because the way the rule

0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:19.040
<v Speaker 1>has been for a team to that point. What the

0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:22.120
<v Speaker 1>rule has been here most recently is a team that

0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:25.079
<v Speaker 1>had a bye in the first round of the playoffs,

0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:29.360
<v Speaker 1>they could interview and an assistant coach could interview during

0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:32.079
<v Speaker 1>that week and then but once it got to game week,

0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:34.920
<v Speaker 1>they were And so now what they've changed on the

0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.600
<v Speaker 1>rule these last two weeks of the regular season, They're

0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:40.400
<v Speaker 1>going to give them permission to interview for the jobs

0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:44.760
<v Speaker 1>and then they can focus on the taskt brand and

0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:50.040
<v Speaker 1>you would only have one team. That would I mean

0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:54.120
<v Speaker 1>with the old rule, you would have more possibilities, right

0:10:54.280 --> 0:11:00.440
<v Speaker 1>because there's more teams with buys now with one, which, yeah,

0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:03.760
<v Speaker 1>that would be another reason why they would relax that

0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:07.400
<v Speaker 1>rule cut down the canon. Now. I didn't hear Dan

0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:11.800
<v Speaker 1>Quinn's press conference yesterday, but I did see a tweaked

0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:16.120
<v Speaker 1>about that. Something that he said about, uh, he wishes

0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:19.239
<v Speaker 1>they would tweak the rules as far if an assistant

0:11:19.240 --> 0:11:24.360
<v Speaker 1>coach got the head coaching job elsewhere moving on to

0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:27.720
<v Speaker 1>that new position quickly, did he say something about that.

0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:31.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't Okay, maybe he didn't. Don't recall like he

0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:35.040
<v Speaker 1>wants no, no, not not for him personally, but that

0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:38.360
<v Speaker 1>for the rule that a coach could go ahead and

0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:43.599
<v Speaker 1>take on his new job before he's done here in

0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:49.120
<v Speaker 1>coe like in college. Yeah. For instance, for instance, an

0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:52.520
<v Speaker 1>assistant coach, especially Joey MacGuire at Baylor, he was the

0:11:52.600 --> 0:11:55.079
<v Speaker 1>assistant head coach and three weeks left in the season

0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:57.319
<v Speaker 1>he got the Texas Tech job and they let him

0:11:57.360 --> 0:12:02.240
<v Speaker 1>go at that point. Yeah, there was nothing said, there

0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:05.320
<v Speaker 1>was nothing talked about about that. Yeah, okay, and I

0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:09.640
<v Speaker 1>think that would be like quitting and taking a college

0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:13.720
<v Speaker 1>job before the season's over. What happens all the time?

0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:16.760
<v Speaker 1>It happened, It happened here. What's that? What's I don't understand? No,

0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:23.760
<v Speaker 1>that was it happened here, and it was it was

0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:30.520
<v Speaker 1>with the blessing zat They booted them all out, They

0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:33.520
<v Speaker 1>showed him the door. I think they pulled some strings

0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:37.360
<v Speaker 1>to get him the job at Oklahoma. But remember we

0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:41.040
<v Speaker 1>talked a week or so ago about Atlanta, right with

0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:47.440
<v Speaker 1>who was it went to Arkansas? Petrino right left his

0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:50.640
<v Speaker 1>staff high and dry there and Zimmer was on that

0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:54.080
<v Speaker 1>staff and he was still hot over there. If you ever,

0:12:54.160 --> 0:12:58.960
<v Speaker 1>if you ever look up that interview on YouTube, it's

0:12:58.960 --> 0:13:02.080
<v Speaker 1>a good one because he let him have it. The

0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:04.680
<v Speaker 1>next year he was okay. You know in on the

0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:07.720
<v Speaker 1>in the at the college level, there's a there's a

0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:10.920
<v Speaker 1>real especially with that early signing day. Yeah, there is

0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:14.000
<v Speaker 1>a real reason why a coach needs to get to

0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:19.520
<v Speaker 1>his college job. He's got he's got it, can recruit immediately,

0:13:19.600 --> 0:13:23.480
<v Speaker 1>and that's why we saw this year, uh, the colleges

0:13:23.640 --> 0:13:27.720
<v Speaker 1>making firings during the regular season and basically hirings during

0:13:27.760 --> 0:13:30.240
<v Speaker 1>the regular season so that their new coach can hit

0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:34.600
<v Speaker 1>the ground running recruiting. From an NFL standpoint, what is

0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:39.320
<v Speaker 1>the advantage I mean, outside of just preparing, you know,

0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:43.439
<v Speaker 1>and studying your new roster and being at the Senior

0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Bowl and uh and so forth, what is the advantage

0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:52.840
<v Speaker 1>of going on to your new job, Because well, I

0:13:52.840 --> 0:13:55.640
<v Speaker 1>would think you want to start putting your staff together, right,

0:13:55.679 --> 0:13:58.240
<v Speaker 1>that would be one. But if guys still are under condy,

0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:03.240
<v Speaker 1>I'd still be working in and that would be the

0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:07.680
<v Speaker 1>main reason. Right. But if you had, like for instance,

0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:10.320
<v Speaker 1>in at the college level right now this week, Dan

0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Lanning is the new head coach at Oregon, right okay,

0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:15.679
<v Speaker 1>And he's been announced as the new head coach at Oregon,

0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.480
<v Speaker 1>but he is staying as the defensive coordinator at Georgia

0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:20.640
<v Speaker 1>because they're playing in this playoff and he is going

0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:24.080
<v Speaker 1>to be calling the defense that's on Friday for the

0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Georgia Bulldogs at their national semifinal game. And so can you.

0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:37.000
<v Speaker 1>There's no reason for the NFL to what said, oh,

0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:38.960
<v Speaker 1>you also has a few guys that are coaching in

0:14:39.000 --> 0:14:40.960
<v Speaker 1>their bowl game and then gonna go out to USC.

0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:46.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, yeah, and that's what usually I think they're gone.

0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:53.160
<v Speaker 1>We don't want that, we don't want them around. Um,

0:14:53.760 --> 0:14:57.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to forget his name. Your former quarterback at

0:14:57.560 --> 0:15:02.360
<v Speaker 1>OU that left Missouri. He as the offensive coordinator, Josh Hypel.

0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:04.880
<v Speaker 1>Josh Hypel, he was at Tennessee head coach at Tennessee,

0:15:05.000 --> 0:15:07.440
<v Speaker 1>Missouri played their bowl. Oh yeah, and that happens all

0:15:07.440 --> 0:15:10.320
<v Speaker 1>the time. And he took the tight end coach with it. No,

0:15:10.400 --> 0:15:13.840
<v Speaker 1>he took the other coach with him, and so a

0:15:13.880 --> 0:15:17.360
<v Speaker 1>tight end coach who had never called plays became the

0:15:17.440 --> 0:15:20.760
<v Speaker 1>offensive coordinator. Right. How do you think that bowl game

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:24.720
<v Speaker 1>turned turn out? You know, you know what happened in

0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Cliff Kingsbury, who now the Cowboys playing the first no.

0:15:30.840 --> 0:15:32.600
<v Speaker 1>But he went from Texas A and M. He was

0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:35.520
<v Speaker 1>the offensive coordinator at Texas A and M. Johnny Manzell

0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:39.160
<v Speaker 1>was his quarterback and he got the Texas Tech head

0:15:39.160 --> 0:15:42.960
<v Speaker 1>coaching job. He left before A and M played Oklahoma

0:15:43.000 --> 0:15:48.240
<v Speaker 1>in the Cotton Bowl, and he basically the assistant coaches

0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:51.760
<v Speaker 1>were running the show, and it was it was Clarence Shellman,

0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:54.000
<v Speaker 1>who was a running backs coach who was calling plays

0:15:54.520 --> 0:15:57.280
<v Speaker 1>and a GA by the name of Riley Dodge, who

0:15:57.360 --> 0:16:00.400
<v Speaker 1>was helping him call plays in that Cotton Bowl, which

0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:05.080
<v Speaker 1>was a lopsided blowout win for Texas A and m

0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Over Oklahoma. It worked out really well for them in

0:16:08.960 --> 0:16:11.800
<v Speaker 1>that game. But to your point, Everson, this Dan Lanning

0:16:11.920 --> 0:16:15.720
<v Speaker 1>staying on at Georgia uh and and already being and

0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:18.680
<v Speaker 1>and being actively the head coach at Oregon is is

0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:20.640
<v Speaker 1>very unusual. And the only time they do it at

0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:23.000
<v Speaker 1>the college level is if you're in the college playoffs.

0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there's these other bowl games are but I

0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:28.600
<v Speaker 1>can't see when you talk about the head coaching job,

0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:32.840
<v Speaker 1>when is this? When is the Senior Bowl being played?

0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:38.640
<v Speaker 1>Is it before the Super Bowl? Is? Yes? This that's

0:16:38.640 --> 0:16:40.960
<v Speaker 1>why as a as a pro coach, you kind of

0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:44.840
<v Speaker 1>want to be in position with your new team at

0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:47.200
<v Speaker 1>that Senior Bowl. If you're not, if your team's not

0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:51.800
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs and or you yeah, or you need permission

0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:55.360
<v Speaker 1>to go down there. Although you know what for the

0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Senior Bowl, and one of the important things there is

0:16:58.280 --> 0:17:02.240
<v Speaker 1>the in person interviews and set up. But the practices

0:17:02.480 --> 0:17:05.800
<v Speaker 1>you can get them on tape, but that's not why

0:17:05.840 --> 0:17:07.960
<v Speaker 1>they Yeah, like you said, they go there to talk

0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:10.080
<v Speaker 1>to the kids right, Yeah, but you can send the

0:17:10.119 --> 0:17:14.360
<v Speaker 1>scouts there and they do a really good job. So yeah,

0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:16.280
<v Speaker 1>they get in the way of the media after the

0:17:16.320 --> 0:17:21.560
<v Speaker 1>practice sessions, so you know they're doing a good job. Okay, look,

0:17:21.720 --> 0:17:25.000
<v Speaker 1>let's look at it at this situation. Let's say whether

0:17:25.000 --> 0:17:28.720
<v Speaker 1>it's Jacksonville, Las Vegas, whoever it might be. They decide

0:17:28.760 --> 0:17:31.639
<v Speaker 1>they want to hire either Kellen Moore or Dan Quinn

0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:34.560
<v Speaker 1>as their head coach, and they make that decision by

0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:39.240
<v Speaker 1>January twelfth, which is before the playoffs start. Kellen Moore

0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:43.520
<v Speaker 1>and Dan Quinn they are not leaving this job until

0:17:43.720 --> 0:17:45.760
<v Speaker 1>it is seen all the way through the end, and

0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:47.920
<v Speaker 1>hopefully that would be all the way through the Super Bowl.

0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:52.200
<v Speaker 1>Even though so it could be, could it be announced

0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:54.359
<v Speaker 1>that they are the new head coach of the Jacksonville

0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:59.119
<v Speaker 1>Jaguars on January whenever that decision. The still stay with

0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:04.160
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys all way and and trusting both sides, trusting

0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:07.600
<v Speaker 1>that the guys opposed as opposed to what happened with

0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:12.080
<v Speaker 1>SMU and TCU this year. TCU had their opening on Halloween.

0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:15.240
<v Speaker 1>They basically a week later decided they were hiring the

0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:18.439
<v Speaker 1>SMU head coach, Sonny Dikes as their coach, but and

0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:20.439
<v Speaker 1>SMU had a lot to play for. They did not

0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:23.159
<v Speaker 1>play well down the stretch. In fact, they lost I

0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:25.040
<v Speaker 1>think the last three games or four of the last

0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:28.920
<v Speaker 1>five or whatever. And then after the SMU season was over,

0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:31.520
<v Speaker 1>they went ahead and made the announcement that Sonny Dikes

0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:34.320
<v Speaker 1>is the new head coach at TCU. The decisions, the

0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:37.919
<v Speaker 1>decision had already been made before that, but it was

0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:41.560
<v Speaker 1>never announced. So I'm wondering, will the NFL handle it

0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:43.800
<v Speaker 1>differently and go ahead and make the announcement or it

0:18:43.840 --> 0:18:46.320
<v Speaker 1>will How do you keep something like that secret. You can't.

0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:49.399
<v Speaker 1>You can't. It wasn't a secret. It was with Sunny

0:18:49.440 --> 0:18:52.119
<v Speaker 1>Dikes exactly. Yeah, they tried to make it seem like

0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:54.480
<v Speaker 1>it was a secret. The truth is like water. They'll

0:18:54.480 --> 0:18:59.119
<v Speaker 1>find its own level, all right. And speaking of the truth, Okay,

0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:02.000
<v Speaker 1>before we go to this, I want to clarify on

0:19:02.040 --> 0:19:05.280
<v Speaker 1>the Minnesota Vikings because I said that that kind of

0:19:05.359 --> 0:19:07.919
<v Speaker 1>the Hail Mary kind of ended their run. Well, actually

0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:10.119
<v Speaker 1>it did not kind of end their run, because the

0:19:10.160 --> 0:19:12.879
<v Speaker 1>next year they lost in the Super Bowl in nineteen

0:19:12.960 --> 0:19:15.399
<v Speaker 1>seventy six, and then they lost in the conference championship

0:19:15.440 --> 0:19:21.400
<v Speaker 1>game in nineteen seventy seven. Let's see who might so

0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:26.000
<v Speaker 1>that was the win on the Cowboys on their way

0:19:26.000 --> 0:19:28.320
<v Speaker 1>to a Super Bowl win over the Denver Broncos. All right,

0:19:28.359 --> 0:19:32.360
<v Speaker 1>more mix shots in just a moment. Good safe, Hey

<v Speaker 1>we didn't get to a whole lot of on Sunday

0:22:19.600 --> 0:22:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Night's game because we dwelled so much and rightly so

0:22:23.680 --> 0:22:28.360
<v Speaker 1>on the eleven interceptions. And we talked to Marcus Lawrence

0:22:28.600 --> 0:22:33.399
<v Speaker 1>some yesterday's show. Any other nuggets from Sunday night that

0:22:33.600 --> 0:22:36.199
<v Speaker 1>I got one, and I got one, so good. Let

0:22:36.240 --> 0:22:41.640
<v Speaker 1>me go first the birthday boy, Thank you, floor first drive, Yes,

0:22:41.840 --> 0:22:43.960
<v Speaker 1>our last third down play. I was just going to

0:22:44.000 --> 0:22:46.359
<v Speaker 1>bring what the heck man, what are we doing? That

0:22:46.560 --> 0:22:50.240
<v Speaker 1>was that plan was a great design. I was thinking

0:22:50.280 --> 0:22:53.440
<v Speaker 1>about that driving in that's amazing, said that I was

0:22:53.480 --> 0:22:56.000
<v Speaker 1>going to present it what was the worst play from

0:22:56.040 --> 0:22:58.800
<v Speaker 1>the game, but it could have been the best if

0:22:58.880 --> 0:23:01.639
<v Speaker 1>he didn't drop. Here. Here's the amazing thing about that,

0:23:02.000 --> 0:23:05.560
<v Speaker 1>in my opinion, is the week before, have you ever

0:23:05.640 --> 0:23:09.000
<v Speaker 1>seen that play? I had not. I want to say

0:23:09.040 --> 0:23:14.040
<v Speaker 1>I have before. The week before the New York Jets

0:23:14.200 --> 0:23:16.359
<v Speaker 1>ran that same play, and I don't know if it

0:23:16.440 --> 0:23:19.359
<v Speaker 1>was an end of games scenario, but I saw a

0:23:19.440 --> 0:23:22.440
<v Speaker 1>tweet and I retweeted it at the time when I

0:23:22.480 --> 0:23:25.119
<v Speaker 1>saw it the week before, and actually passed it on

0:23:25.240 --> 0:23:29.359
<v Speaker 1>to a friend. Braxton Barriosum was on the I think

0:23:29.440 --> 0:23:31.960
<v Speaker 1>he was in the Yamari Cooper role and the receiving

0:23:32.080 --> 0:23:34.600
<v Speaker 1>end of the past from another player, and he has

0:23:34.640 --> 0:23:37.240
<v Speaker 1>some family that live here that you know, and so

0:23:37.400 --> 0:23:39.800
<v Speaker 1>I passed it onto them. Hey, Braxton made a play

0:23:39.880 --> 0:23:41.639
<v Speaker 1>what He also had a kickoff return for a touchdown

0:23:41.640 --> 0:23:44.800
<v Speaker 1>this week. But anyway, but it was amazing because I

0:23:45.000 --> 0:23:49.879
<v Speaker 1>saw that play and then the Cowboys basically ran the

0:23:49.960 --> 0:23:52.960
<v Speaker 1>same play, and I was like, now is he add living? Noah,

0:23:53.280 --> 0:23:58.760
<v Speaker 1>Maari was setting. So I'm sitting there wondering do these

0:23:58.880 --> 0:24:02.320
<v Speaker 1>play callers in the do they like text each other

0:24:02.560 --> 0:24:06.320
<v Speaker 1>and hey, look what play I ran. No, tried to

0:24:06.520 --> 0:24:10.040
<v Speaker 1>hide it, but then hey, Kellen saw it. I must

0:24:10.119 --> 0:24:12.640
<v Speaker 1>have been what happened, because I'm sure you not only

0:24:12.720 --> 0:24:15.879
<v Speaker 1>was a Mary waiting. I think I saw CD blocking.

0:24:16.800 --> 0:24:19.440
<v Speaker 1>I saw CD blocking after he pitched it. After he

0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:21.719
<v Speaker 1>pitched it, and he was blocking the guys away from

0:24:21.760 --> 0:24:25.000
<v Speaker 1>the sideline because Mary's on the sideline. CD was blocking

0:24:25.160 --> 0:24:28.240
<v Speaker 1>to shield them from the sideline, like inside inside. He

0:24:28.320 --> 0:24:30.280
<v Speaker 1>pushed them back inside. Now that's not what you want

0:24:30.320 --> 0:24:32.639
<v Speaker 1>them because that's what Cedric was going. But but it's like,

0:24:33.480 --> 0:24:36.440
<v Speaker 1>is it an option play for the receiver? Okay? Because

0:24:36.480 --> 0:24:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Cedric had a decision to make it as he I mean,

0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:42.959
<v Speaker 1>he was approaching first, the first step, and he had

0:24:43.040 --> 0:24:48.399
<v Speaker 1>some players in that way. I understood the decision that Okay,

0:24:48.560 --> 0:24:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't get there, I'm gonna go ahead. But I

0:24:51.040 --> 0:24:53.320
<v Speaker 1>would imagine he has that option. That's where it was.

0:24:53.560 --> 0:24:59.040
<v Speaker 1>It was like an RPO. It was an RPO judging

0:24:59.640 --> 0:25:02.560
<v Speaker 1>or judging from what he didn't do on the fake

0:25:02.840 --> 0:25:06.920
<v Speaker 1>punt against Washington last year. They probably told him pitch

0:25:07.040 --> 0:25:10.000
<v Speaker 1>the thing, don't hold on to it, but he judging job,

0:25:10.400 --> 0:25:13.760
<v Speaker 1>judging by the reaction just the body language of the

0:25:13.840 --> 0:25:17.119
<v Speaker 1>head coach on the sideline. Yes, it looked like the

0:25:17.200 --> 0:25:19.880
<v Speaker 1>head coach would have preferred to go ahead and try

0:25:19.920 --> 0:25:26.040
<v Speaker 1>to get that. First reaction was Kyle, we set up

0:25:26.040 --> 0:25:30.119
<v Speaker 1>another good play, didn't That's what I'm thinking, catch the ball. Okay,

0:25:30.600 --> 0:25:33.440
<v Speaker 1>he was like that because the he dropped the ball.

0:25:33.520 --> 0:25:36.159
<v Speaker 1>But if he catches that ball, man, we're looking like genius.

0:25:36.359 --> 0:25:38.800
<v Speaker 1>And he had to make sure the pitch was behind

0:25:39.400 --> 0:25:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Sure it was. Did Cooper have to turn to No?

0:25:44.560 --> 0:25:48.600
<v Speaker 1>It was right, it was behind I know the past. Yeah,

0:25:48.680 --> 0:25:50.520
<v Speaker 1>that's what I mean. It went it was a lad

0:25:50.640 --> 0:25:53.600
<v Speaker 1>one yeah yeah right, yeah, absolutely, But I was trying

0:25:53.640 --> 0:25:56.080
<v Speaker 1>to remember if it was behind Cooper, did he have

0:25:56.200 --> 0:25:58.280
<v Speaker 1>to turn or was it in front of him where

0:25:58.359 --> 0:26:00.720
<v Speaker 1>he could catch everything? You see, it didn't he did.

0:26:00.840 --> 0:26:03.240
<v Speaker 1>He just pivoted. Yeah, it hit him here right right,

0:26:03.320 --> 0:26:05.000
<v Speaker 1>And I don't so, I don't know. He had a

0:26:05.119 --> 0:26:07.639
<v Speaker 1>lane up. The sideline's so busy. Look I think he

0:26:07.720 --> 0:26:10.360
<v Speaker 1>was excited. Yeah, it's like, oh, this isn't gonna work.

0:26:11.880 --> 0:26:17.240
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, that's my that's ok. I realized we forgot

0:26:17.320 --> 0:26:20.960
<v Speaker 1>to talk about. Yeah that was because that was the

0:26:21.119 --> 0:26:24.800
<v Speaker 1>only U really mistake that they made the entire game.

0:26:24.880 --> 0:26:27.760
<v Speaker 1>That's all I saw. If you're gonna knitpick, then that's

0:26:27.800 --> 0:26:31.480
<v Speaker 1>how that at first drive culminated. And that's not what

0:26:31.680 --> 0:26:35.160
<v Speaker 1>we wanted in that regard. So after that, no hiccups

0:26:35.160 --> 0:26:39.320
<v Speaker 1>at all. Of course, perfect game otherwise, can you um

0:26:40.080 --> 0:26:43.080
<v Speaker 1>they only had three penalties for like fifteen yards? Here

0:26:43.440 --> 0:26:46.000
<v Speaker 1>did we have a fumble anytime? Here's what I saw

0:26:47.000 --> 0:26:54.119
<v Speaker 1>after they punted on that first possession. It was touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown.

0:26:55.080 --> 0:26:57.440
<v Speaker 1>I love that now one of them. One of them

0:26:57.640 --> 0:27:01.040
<v Speaker 1>was the interception repurci the picks. And then you start

0:27:01.119 --> 0:27:03.640
<v Speaker 1>the second half and there was a three and out right,

0:27:03.760 --> 0:27:06.359
<v Speaker 1>and then it was a touchdown on special teams and

0:27:06.760 --> 0:27:10.440
<v Speaker 1>touchdown on the special teams. Yes, and then it's tough

0:27:10.520 --> 0:27:14.600
<v Speaker 1>to knit after that, huh. But yeah. So I think

0:27:14.720 --> 0:27:17.440
<v Speaker 1>one of the things we probably didn't talk enough about

0:27:17.720 --> 0:27:23.800
<v Speaker 1>was Zeke was running like Zeke. The numbers don't reflect, no,

0:27:23.960 --> 0:27:28.159
<v Speaker 1>they don't, but the touchdown run did. The fact that

0:27:28.560 --> 0:27:33.160
<v Speaker 1>he got into the clear on the touchdown reception where

0:27:33.400 --> 0:27:35.639
<v Speaker 1>it was a play fake, he went into the line

0:27:35.760 --> 0:27:39.440
<v Speaker 1>and veered out and he was running well. So that

0:27:39.600 --> 0:27:41.600
<v Speaker 1>means in LA and I made a point of this,

0:27:41.800 --> 0:27:45.600
<v Speaker 1>I think two weeks ago that they other than Pollard's

0:27:45.640 --> 0:27:48.440
<v Speaker 1>fifty eight yard touchdown run, they just don't run the

0:27:48.520 --> 0:27:51.959
<v Speaker 1>ball in the end zone, especially in the red zone. Yes,

0:27:52.119 --> 0:27:55.000
<v Speaker 1>and now in consecutive weeks he's got a thirteen yard

0:27:55.080 --> 0:27:58.960
<v Speaker 1>touchdown run in eleven yard touchdown run and they finished

0:27:58.960 --> 0:28:03.160
<v Speaker 1>it off diving for the pylons. So I can't believe

0:28:03.359 --> 0:28:08.400
<v Speaker 1>whatever that whatever that need braces doing, it's working. Yeah.

0:28:08.560 --> 0:28:11.080
<v Speaker 1>And he called the past and they called the past

0:28:11.240 --> 0:28:13.359
<v Speaker 1>right Yeah. In the red zone, yes, so we were

0:28:13.400 --> 0:28:16.639
<v Speaker 1>clicking in the red zone. Were six or six of

0:28:16.680 --> 0:28:20.880
<v Speaker 1>the red after three of thirteen was it? Or three

0:28:20.960 --> 0:28:24.040
<v Speaker 1>of eleven? And I mean, let's, you know, let's put

0:28:24.119 --> 0:28:26.840
<v Speaker 1>things into perspective. We know out the way it was

0:28:26.840 --> 0:28:29.280
<v Speaker 1>supposed to. You could clearly see that some of the

0:28:29.359 --> 0:28:32.840
<v Speaker 1>backups had no idea what they were doing. The play

0:28:32.920 --> 0:28:35.679
<v Speaker 1>to Elliott looked just as the play to Shouts. They

0:28:35.760 --> 0:28:37.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't cover either one of them. They're still not close

0:28:37.960 --> 0:28:41.240
<v Speaker 1>to covering those. So you could see where especially number

0:28:41.280 --> 0:28:44.080
<v Speaker 1>twenty in the defensive backfield for the for the Washington,

0:28:44.600 --> 0:28:48.200
<v Speaker 1>he was never on his man right. He always looked lost,

0:28:48.240 --> 0:28:50.720
<v Speaker 1>and they were playing backup linebacker. Yes they were. It

0:28:50.800 --> 0:28:52.520
<v Speaker 1>was a lot of backup stuff going on. But what

0:28:52.720 --> 0:28:54.000
<v Speaker 1>what it gave you a chance to do was to

0:28:54.200 --> 0:28:57.760
<v Speaker 1>clarify what you need to do offensively. This is what

0:28:57.920 --> 0:28:59.920
<v Speaker 1>it's supposed to look like. And when you talk about

0:29:00.120 --> 0:29:06.120
<v Speaker 1>zis running, the running is not spectacular, but it's affective

0:29:06.200 --> 0:29:09.920
<v Speaker 1>because then it's moving the chains. Yes, and it's we're

0:29:09.960 --> 0:29:13.160
<v Speaker 1>getting enough on first down the second down to where

0:29:13.200 --> 0:29:15.800
<v Speaker 1>they have to respect that run and they're bringing that

0:29:15.880 --> 0:29:17.880
<v Speaker 1>safety down. We just want to bring that safety down.

0:29:18.240 --> 0:29:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Once he comes down, then we're going to feast on

0:29:20.240 --> 0:29:22.960
<v Speaker 1>the outside. So I'm loving it. So sort of like

0:29:23.760 --> 0:29:27.080
<v Speaker 1>the problems when you have your fourth quarterbacks starting last

0:29:27.120 --> 0:29:33.840
<v Speaker 1>night and a backup backup? Right, how's that guy they had?

0:29:34.240 --> 0:29:40.120
<v Speaker 1>They had? They played fifty seven different players, Yes, yes,

0:29:40.240 --> 0:29:43.000
<v Speaker 1>on the Saints. Did they say it like this a

0:29:43.080 --> 0:29:46.560
<v Speaker 1>record in the well, no meaning all season? They because

0:29:46.640 --> 0:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>they they played more than that. I'm sure. In regards

0:29:50.280 --> 0:29:53.880
<v Speaker 1>to no starters, I think starters starters. There you go,

0:29:54.040 --> 0:29:57.880
<v Speaker 1>starters fifty seven, that's a record, that's a record. I

0:29:57.960 --> 0:30:00.480
<v Speaker 1>think the red Skins are right behind them. That's like

0:30:00.560 --> 0:30:04.920
<v Speaker 1>the Rangers pitching staff. They've gone through some secs where

0:30:04.920 --> 0:30:08.520
<v Speaker 1>they've used fifty seven starters. I think that was maybe

0:30:08.560 --> 0:30:14.280
<v Speaker 1>not starters. And I think that the worst part for

0:30:14.400 --> 0:30:16.560
<v Speaker 1>Ian book was he didn't find out. I don't know

0:30:16.720 --> 0:30:19.880
<v Speaker 1>how if he got a practice or two in uh

0:30:20.120 --> 0:30:23.440
<v Speaker 1>and then they couldn't block. I mean they were over

0:30:23.520 --> 0:30:26.560
<v Speaker 1>for nine on third down at one point they gained

0:30:26.880 --> 0:30:30.600
<v Speaker 1>they had one. They actually gained positive yardies once once

0:30:30.880 --> 0:30:35.200
<v Speaker 1>positive positive judies. Yeah, first positives. So even though they

0:30:35.240 --> 0:30:39.040
<v Speaker 1>didn't have a book on the Saints quarterback, they handled

0:30:39.080 --> 0:30:43.280
<v Speaker 1>them pretty well. Here we go. The poor the poor

0:30:43.520 --> 0:30:48.320
<v Speaker 1>right tackle couldn't block anybody. They tried to diagram one

0:30:48.440 --> 0:30:51.120
<v Speaker 1>play on why the blitz got there. And they were

0:30:51.200 --> 0:30:54.840
<v Speaker 1>talking about the inside guy, you know, circling around and

0:30:55.000 --> 0:30:57.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm going, all you do is look at the right tackle.

0:30:57.480 --> 0:31:00.239
<v Speaker 1>He blew his block. The guy went right around him

0:31:01.040 --> 0:31:05.800
<v Speaker 1>like he was a tomb. It's like, I don't care

0:31:05.920 --> 0:31:08.800
<v Speaker 1>what kind of game they played inside if that guy

0:31:08.880 --> 0:31:13.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't get him, that guy was getting Tayton and then

0:31:13.680 --> 0:31:15.760
<v Speaker 1>he couldn't get a break on call. Yeah, they were

0:31:15.840 --> 0:31:18.560
<v Speaker 1>dogging him. Yeah, it's something about the Saint. We we

0:31:18.720 --> 0:31:21.720
<v Speaker 1>we fussed all the time cowboys, Yeah, about getting bad calls.

0:31:21.840 --> 0:31:23.840
<v Speaker 1>He's right, they are the most they are the most

0:31:23.880 --> 0:31:26.720
<v Speaker 1>consistent team and getting the worst calls. He must have

0:31:27.160 --> 0:31:29.600
<v Speaker 1>been on that competition committee and gave a bunch of

0:31:29.640 --> 0:31:32.280
<v Speaker 1>those officials bad grades. He had so much to do

0:31:32.480 --> 0:31:34.640
<v Speaker 1>before the half. He wants to fussing one of his

0:31:34.720 --> 0:31:37.160
<v Speaker 1>players and get that straight. And before he did that,

0:31:37.280 --> 0:31:39.680
<v Speaker 1>he's like, hey, come in, come in talking to the beflee.

0:31:40.000 --> 0:31:41.760
<v Speaker 1>We got to talk because he had just given the

0:31:41.840 --> 0:31:44.320
<v Speaker 1>bogus call and he wasn't talking. He was yelling. Yeah,

0:31:44.320 --> 0:31:48.000
<v Speaker 1>he was all right, there's more from that legal pad

<v Speaker 1>was asked about the crowd today on his fan report,

0:34:52.400 --> 0:35:00.279

0:35:12.000 --> 0:35:16.879
<v Speaker 1>just he's his own words. Smith. Um. I was doing

0:35:17.000 --> 0:35:20.960
<v Speaker 1>live shots yesterday in the Plaza Tostitos Championship Plaza and

0:35:20.960 --> 0:35:23.880
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of a lot of activity there yesterday,

0:35:24.120 --> 0:35:27.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot of fans just hanging out and basking in

0:35:27.120 --> 0:35:29.799
<v Speaker 1>the glory of a victory Monday. And one little kid

0:35:29.840 --> 0:35:31.279
<v Speaker 1>came up to me and I said, so, what do

0:35:31.320 --> 0:35:34.880
<v Speaker 1>you think of that game yesterday? Hey, Dak won the

0:35:35.120 --> 0:35:41.640
<v Speaker 1>my fantasy football championship for me? Right now, about a

0:35:41.760 --> 0:35:45.200
<v Speaker 1>twelve year old kid? And what were you doing out there? Bill? Well,

0:35:45.320 --> 0:35:47.320
<v Speaker 1>I'll get to that in just second. Home. From a

0:35:47.400 --> 0:35:52.879
<v Speaker 1>fantasy football perspective, Okay, it's crazy right now as people

0:35:52.960 --> 0:35:55.840
<v Speaker 1>that play fantasy football out there. I've got I'm in

0:35:55.960 --> 0:35:59.040
<v Speaker 1>three leagues and I literally don't pay attention to these

0:35:59.160 --> 0:36:02.759
<v Speaker 1>teams all week long. Why are you in it? I

0:36:02.800 --> 0:36:05.279
<v Speaker 1>got a family one, I've got a neighborhood one, and

0:36:05.360 --> 0:36:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I've got one here at Cowboys TV. Okay, and so

0:36:10.040 --> 0:36:14.160
<v Speaker 1>it literally is right before kickoff before I each week

0:36:14.280 --> 0:36:16.879
<v Speaker 1>look at the light up and realized, oh, I gotta

0:36:16.920 --> 0:36:21.080
<v Speaker 1>make these adjustments. Okay. So somehow I was in the

0:36:21.840 --> 0:36:24.200
<v Speaker 1>in two leagues. I was in the in the semifinals

0:36:24.520 --> 0:36:26.840
<v Speaker 1>this past Sunday, and so I look at my team

0:36:27.160 --> 0:36:29.960
<v Speaker 1>and I went on one of my teams. I had

0:36:30.120 --> 0:36:33.680
<v Speaker 1>literally six guys in my starting light up who were

0:36:33.719 --> 0:36:36.880
<v Speaker 1>out COVID or injury or whatever, and so I just

0:36:37.000 --> 0:36:39.640
<v Speaker 1>had to start picking up guys off their way. Okay,

0:36:40.040 --> 0:36:43.040
<v Speaker 1>let me show you. I picked up Damien Harris, the

0:36:43.160 --> 0:36:45.600
<v Speaker 1>new England running back, who for some reason was out there.

0:36:45.800 --> 0:36:49.120
<v Speaker 1>He got twenty eight points. I picked up Justin Jackson,

0:36:49.360 --> 0:36:52.640
<v Speaker 1>he got me thirty points. The only guy that I

0:36:52.719 --> 0:36:54.960
<v Speaker 1>really had on the team was T Higgins Cincinnati. He

0:36:55.040 --> 0:36:59.080
<v Speaker 1>got me. I picked up Joshua Palmer the Chargers, he

0:36:59.239 --> 0:37:01.719
<v Speaker 1>got me twelve point eight points. Dawson knocks of the

0:37:01.800 --> 0:37:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Bills because Kelsey was out, you got me eight points whatever.

0:37:05.080 --> 0:37:08.479
<v Speaker 1>And then and I just blew away my opponent. Nice

0:37:09.080 --> 0:37:12.320
<v Speaker 1>on both of What does that tell you, I don't know.

0:37:13.080 --> 0:37:17.520
<v Speaker 1>It tells you don't have to study hard. That a

0:37:17.800 --> 0:37:21.919
<v Speaker 1>fantasy is I never got into that. I never did either.

0:37:22.239 --> 0:37:24.480
<v Speaker 1>It's just really in the last five to seven and

0:37:24.560 --> 0:37:27.719
<v Speaker 1>eight year or something like that, I just just try.

0:37:27.920 --> 0:37:31.239
<v Speaker 1>We would we have a neighborhood fantasy draft party, and

0:37:31.360 --> 0:37:34.640
<v Speaker 1>then everybody in the neighborhood just forgets about it all season. Basically.

0:37:34.800 --> 0:37:37.719
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's bringing the nerds into sports. That's what

0:37:37.880 --> 0:37:40.200
<v Speaker 1>I tried that, which is a good thing. One summer

0:37:40.280 --> 0:37:42.759
<v Speaker 1>with baseball, when it was and I don't remember what

0:37:42.880 --> 0:37:45.880
<v Speaker 1>it was called, somebody quit a league and buddy of

0:37:45.960 --> 0:37:47.600
<v Speaker 1>mine said, oh, you can take it over. It's a

0:37:47.640 --> 0:37:52.279
<v Speaker 1>lot of fun. Right. Well, it's all based on percentage, right,

0:37:52.360 --> 0:37:55.160
<v Speaker 1>and you have your roster. It's not fantasy. You got

0:37:55.239 --> 0:37:58.520
<v Speaker 1>to manage your roster. So I would be stubborn. It's like, well,

0:37:58.600 --> 0:38:00.640
<v Speaker 1>that's the best pitcher, he's got to go, you know,

0:38:01.040 --> 0:38:03.160
<v Speaker 1>and then you leave them in one inning too long

0:38:03.560 --> 0:38:06.560
<v Speaker 1>and the percentages catch up with you, right. And I

0:38:06.800 --> 0:38:09.200
<v Speaker 1>would stay up to two o'clock in the morning playing

0:38:09.239 --> 0:38:11.319
<v Speaker 1>these games trying to make up and I'm going never

0:38:11.400 --> 0:38:15.480
<v Speaker 1>again too. I'm too competitive. I can't remember. When I

0:38:15.640 --> 0:38:20.080
<v Speaker 1>was coaching that junior high softball team fast pitched girls,

0:38:20.400 --> 0:38:22.640
<v Speaker 1>I'd be at work scribbling out, oh, I do that

0:38:23.320 --> 0:38:27.600
<v Speaker 1>my lineup right, the exact same thing. And it wasn't

0:38:27.640 --> 0:38:30.839
<v Speaker 1>like and this was real. I can't imagine what I did,

0:38:30.880 --> 0:38:33.360
<v Speaker 1>the exact same thing. You know, you'd set that girl's

0:38:33.400 --> 0:38:35.640
<v Speaker 1>softball lineup where you got to clean up hit her

0:38:35.719 --> 0:38:37.319
<v Speaker 1>in the fourth hole, and then you got another one

0:38:37.360 --> 0:38:39.239
<v Speaker 1>in the eighth and you got the bad hitter. You know,

0:38:39.320 --> 0:38:42.240
<v Speaker 1>you got it. There's a real strategy make a difference.

0:38:42.840 --> 0:38:46.960
<v Speaker 1>It did. It did, Yeah, there's no doubt about it.

0:38:47.440 --> 0:38:49.279
<v Speaker 1>But it was funny. It was hilarious as we were

0:38:49.719 --> 0:38:51.960
<v Speaker 1>my wife and I were sitting there and there then

0:38:52.120 --> 0:38:55.520
<v Speaker 1>watching games at the noon games on Sunday. She wasn't

0:38:55.560 --> 0:38:58.440
<v Speaker 1>really watching, she was doing what but I would shout

0:38:58.800 --> 0:39:02.680
<v Speaker 1>every time, like to Jackson scored a touchdown. I was going,

0:39:02.800 --> 0:39:06.000
<v Speaker 1>this is a basy. They don't play for the cow

0:39:06.200 --> 0:39:08.000
<v Speaker 1>And I didn't even have my I didn't even have

0:39:08.120 --> 0:39:10.359
<v Speaker 1>my guy, Rex Burkhead on the team. And he went

0:39:12.080 --> 0:39:15.279
<v Speaker 1>to see that. I just saw something that came that

0:39:15.360 --> 0:39:17.440
<v Speaker 1>was an amazing bill on the TV and they were

0:39:17.520 --> 0:39:21.480
<v Speaker 1>doing a fantasy thing and it was drafting available fantasy

0:39:21.600 --> 0:39:24.799
<v Speaker 1>players going forward, and Burkhead was the number one guy

0:39:25.239 --> 0:39:27.960
<v Speaker 1>thirty one years old, ninth year in the league, and

0:39:28.280 --> 0:39:30.320
<v Speaker 1>he's he's playing for the Texas, and he's playing for

0:39:30.400 --> 0:39:32.600
<v Speaker 1>the Texas. But he balled out. It's hard to play,

0:39:32.640 --> 0:39:35.520
<v Speaker 1>it's all out in a situation. He was at day

0:39:35.600 --> 0:39:38.040
<v Speaker 1>one and he was kicked. But well, hell, he had

0:39:38.080 --> 0:39:40.399
<v Speaker 1>a hundred something yards. They've had one hundred forty nine yards,

0:39:40.760 --> 0:39:43.279
<v Speaker 1>but he was I didn't I was gonna play him.

0:39:43.320 --> 0:39:45.400
<v Speaker 1>I look at fifty yards. I'm the president of the

0:39:45.480 --> 0:39:47.880
<v Speaker 1>Rex Burkhead Fan Club, and I didn't put him in

0:39:47.960 --> 0:39:51.320
<v Speaker 1>my fantasy football lineup when I had to have somebody.

0:39:51.360 --> 0:39:53.840
<v Speaker 1>But he had one hundred fifty yards. He's had some

0:39:53.960 --> 0:39:56.640
<v Speaker 1>hundred yard games. Fifty No, no, that's the first time

0:39:56.640 --> 0:39:58.400
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and fifty year come on at thirty. But

0:39:58.520 --> 0:40:03.920
<v Speaker 1>the reason at thirty one years old. Okay, twenty round

0:40:04.000 --> 0:40:07.399
<v Speaker 1>draft back, that was amazing. We took Joseph Randall. Go ahead, Mickey.

0:40:08.440 --> 0:40:11.120
<v Speaker 1>So since we've been taught wait wait, wait, he wants

0:40:11.280 --> 0:40:14.520
<v Speaker 1>he wants Burkehead to be here now, right forget Zeke?

0:40:14.640 --> 0:40:18.920
<v Speaker 1>We got Zeke? Bad, No, we get no, no, no,

0:40:19.280 --> 0:40:22.000
<v Speaker 1>just as the third back in his role, just like

0:40:22.120 --> 0:40:24.719
<v Speaker 1>he was with the Patriots. Tom Brady would take him

0:40:24.719 --> 0:40:27.839
<v Speaker 1>in a heartbeat, especially with what's going on there. Let's say,

0:40:27.960 --> 0:40:30.120
<v Speaker 1>can't get your buddies to release the guy, and then

0:40:30.640 --> 0:40:34.759
<v Speaker 1>that's what I'm I wanted. Let's release burkehead down there.

0:40:34.960 --> 0:40:37.520
<v Speaker 1>Nick Caisserio, the GM. Of course, he was with the

0:40:37.600 --> 0:40:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Patriots forever and so that's why he wound up there

0:40:40.120 --> 0:40:41.800
<v Speaker 1>and he was coming off in a cl to Houston

0:40:41.840 --> 0:40:44.359
<v Speaker 1>has a big connection with that. Yeah, Boston, Yeah, yeah.

0:40:44.920 --> 0:40:48.520
<v Speaker 1>So since we've been talking about interceptions and takeaways, I

0:40:49.120 --> 0:40:52.960
<v Speaker 1>noticed here on the latest NFL stats, the Cowboys are

0:40:53.000 --> 0:40:58.359
<v Speaker 1>tied for second with a plus fourteen differential takeaway turn

0:40:58.400 --> 0:41:01.319
<v Speaker 1>over the turn a pretty good differential. First is Green

0:41:01.400 --> 0:41:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Bay at plus sixteen. And how are they doing in

0:41:04.000 --> 0:41:09.640
<v Speaker 1>the standings? Green Bay? I think they've already clay number one,

0:41:11.080 --> 0:41:14.719
<v Speaker 1>except the number one. So the number one seed in

0:41:14.800 --> 0:41:17.560
<v Speaker 1>the in the NFC is plus sixteen and the number

0:41:17.600 --> 0:41:21.279
<v Speaker 1>two seed is plus fourteen along with Indianapolis, which is

0:41:21.560 --> 0:41:26.960
<v Speaker 1>there's something to play for except to have their quarterbacks

0:41:27.000 --> 0:41:32.560
<v Speaker 1>out ten days the second game too. The last ask

0:41:32.760 --> 0:41:37.520
<v Speaker 1>who the backup is? Sam Ellinger's that's right. I think

0:41:37.560 --> 0:41:40.399
<v Speaker 1>he's he's number two and they've got an important game

0:41:41.440 --> 0:41:43.800
<v Speaker 1>every game. I think Sam could play pretty well, I

0:41:43.960 --> 0:41:46.759
<v Speaker 1>really do, and he reminds me of here. I mean

0:41:47.160 --> 0:41:49.040
<v Speaker 1>sometimes in a good way. So check out. Here's the

0:41:49.200 --> 0:41:58.440
<v Speaker 1>here's the top teams in the turnaroad turnover differential, Green Bay, Indianapolis, Dallas, Buffalo, Arizona, Minnesota,

0:41:58.560 --> 0:42:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Tampa Bay, New England. That's the top eight before a

0:42:03.520 --> 0:42:07.640
<v Speaker 1>team shows up that Denver. I don't know if they

0:42:07.719 --> 0:42:09.720
<v Speaker 1>got a chance. I don't think they have a chance anymore.

0:42:09.760 --> 0:42:14.799
<v Speaker 1>In the playoffs, obviously, Houston, Kansas City. The Rams are

0:42:14.880 --> 0:42:18.719
<v Speaker 1>tied for ninth along with Seattle, and then comes New

0:42:18.880 --> 0:42:24.520
<v Speaker 1>Orleans at fourteenth. So the only team the Chargers still

0:42:24.600 --> 0:42:30.319
<v Speaker 1>have a chance. I think, yes, charge everybody Philadelphy. Three

0:42:30.440 --> 0:42:35.759
<v Speaker 1>teams still have a chance. Philadelphia are tied for fifteenth,

0:42:35.920 --> 0:42:42.160
<v Speaker 1>in Miami's eighteenth, in Pittsburgh's eighteenth, Cincinnati's twentieth. After that,

0:42:42.520 --> 0:42:46.560
<v Speaker 1>it's all the also rans except for Vegas because I

0:42:46.640 --> 0:42:50.040
<v Speaker 1>still think they have Oh how about Baltimore, They're twenty ninth,

0:42:51.840 --> 0:42:56.799
<v Speaker 1>they're minus ten. Too many too many gambles, right, too

0:42:57.040 --> 0:43:00.520
<v Speaker 1>many gambles. So anyway, but the Cowboys are our first

0:43:00.600 --> 0:43:03.760
<v Speaker 1>with thirty three takeaways, and they are first with twenty

0:43:03.840 --> 0:43:08.759
<v Speaker 1>five interceptions. Okay, the Colts, by the way, they play

0:43:08.800 --> 0:43:12.200
<v Speaker 1>the Raiders on Sunday and then they close at Jacksonville.

0:43:13.880 --> 0:43:17.239
<v Speaker 1>So what a great story it would be. And Sam

0:43:17.320 --> 0:43:20.400
<v Speaker 1>Ellinger is the guy that's likely to start for the

0:43:20.440 --> 0:43:22.719
<v Speaker 1>Colts against the Raid. What a great story it would

0:43:22.760 --> 0:43:25.319
<v Speaker 1>be if Sam Ellinger is able to come in there

0:43:25.560 --> 0:43:29.000
<v Speaker 1>and basically secure a playoff spot for the Colts with

0:43:29.080 --> 0:43:32.239
<v Speaker 1>what all he had gone through this year. His brother

0:43:32.560 --> 0:43:35.400
<v Speaker 1>died tragically on the spring right after he was drafted

0:43:36.400 --> 0:43:40.200
<v Speaker 1>by the Colts. Yeah, it was a tragic situation. And

0:43:40.480 --> 0:43:44.319
<v Speaker 1>UT right, Yeah, he was reserve linebacker on the UT

0:43:44.480 --> 0:43:47.839
<v Speaker 1>football team. Yeah, yeah, And so Sam had to deal

0:43:47.880 --> 0:43:50.399
<v Speaker 1>with that, just as he had making the transition into

0:43:50.440 --> 0:43:53.960
<v Speaker 1>the NFL. And well, he's a strong high care you know.

0:43:54.000 --> 0:43:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Of course, he had lost his father when he was

0:43:57.000 --> 0:43:58.840
<v Speaker 1>either in high school I guess he's in high school

0:43:58.920 --> 0:44:01.400
<v Speaker 1>or early on it when he was at UT. But

0:44:01.920 --> 0:44:04.439
<v Speaker 1>it would be that would be a great story if

0:44:04.920 --> 0:44:07.879
<v Speaker 1>Sam Ellinger can lead them into problem. I truly think

0:44:07.960 --> 0:44:12.080
<v Speaker 1>he can. Um, he's solid quarterback. Had those problems at UT,

0:44:12.560 --> 0:44:14.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, I guess because he was going through so much.

0:44:14.719 --> 0:44:17.040
<v Speaker 1>I had no idea that what he was going through.

0:44:17.080 --> 0:44:19.320
<v Speaker 1>But I just thought he didn't play up to his potential,

0:44:19.440 --> 0:44:22.320
<v Speaker 1>especially his last year there and the way he plays

0:44:22.400 --> 0:44:24.719
<v Speaker 1>his size, the way he runs the ball. He's a

0:44:24.840 --> 0:44:26.799
<v Speaker 1>lot like Carson Wins, and if he could just stay

0:44:26.840 --> 0:44:29.960
<v Speaker 1>away from those Wins mistakes, I think he'll do pretty well.

0:44:30.000 --> 0:44:33.600
<v Speaker 1>I think he fits fits well into that about leaning

0:44:33.600 --> 0:44:37.520
<v Speaker 1>on that running back, Jonathan Take that's what you do. Yeah, yeah,

0:44:37.640 --> 0:44:40.000
<v Speaker 1>just just handed off a goat. But but he's got

0:44:40.080 --> 0:44:42.560
<v Speaker 1>to be able to show enough throwing the football that

0:44:42.800 --> 0:44:46.880
<v Speaker 1>that defenses aren't. I truly believe that he can. I

0:44:47.000 --> 0:44:50.680
<v Speaker 1>really do all right, Mickey got mixed. Shot the closest

0:44:50.760 --> 0:44:53.080
<v Speaker 1>out with our final minute here. I was trying to

0:44:53.200 --> 0:44:57.279
<v Speaker 1>see if Ellinger had any He hasn't had playing time

0:44:57.880 --> 0:45:05.120
<v Speaker 1>to have it in here. Um Tyron Smith, Tyron Smith.

0:45:07.320 --> 0:45:12.120
<v Speaker 1>Garry Jones backed up Steven's assessment on Monday this morning,

0:45:12.320 --> 0:45:15.920
<v Speaker 1>saying he's betting that Tyron Smith is good to go,

0:45:16.400 --> 0:45:19.880
<v Speaker 1>so they're counting on him. We'll find out more tomorrow

0:45:19.920 --> 0:45:25.279
<v Speaker 1>when they go to practice. But Jerry basically said that, uh,

0:45:26.080 --> 0:45:29.359
<v Speaker 1>And he was asked if he ever got to catch

0:45:29.440 --> 0:45:33.400
<v Speaker 1>a pass as an offensive lineman, and he said, I

0:45:33.640 --> 0:45:37.200
<v Speaker 1>got mine. Before I became a guard, I was a fullback.

0:45:38.480 --> 0:45:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Was he really yeah? And he said practice was a

0:45:41.320 --> 0:45:45.080
<v Speaker 1>lot easier as a fullback than being a guard and

0:45:45.239 --> 0:45:48.759
<v Speaker 1>getting hit every play, every snap. So now, back then,

0:45:48.840 --> 0:45:53.320
<v Speaker 1>the fullback carried the football. Oh yeah, well I remember

0:45:54.400 --> 0:45:56.800
<v Speaker 1>there was a primary back. Was the fullback because a

0:45:56.840 --> 0:46:01.920
<v Speaker 1>lot of time because technically Jim Brown was a fullback, right, wow,

0:46:02.280 --> 0:46:09.200
<v Speaker 1>I never knew that. Oh yeah, and Um Green Bay

0:46:10.239 --> 0:46:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Um Horning was the tailback. They called it a half

0:46:16.480 --> 0:46:19.759
<v Speaker 1>was Oh why am i? Jim Taylor Taylor of Las

0:46:20.719 --> 0:46:23.000
<v Speaker 1>was the fullback and he was their leading rusher all

0:46:23.040 --> 0:46:25.879
<v Speaker 1>the time. Now, Harning was a leading scorer because he'd

0:46:25.960 --> 0:46:29.000
<v Speaker 1>kicked field goals too, while Garrison ran for a lot

0:46:29.080 --> 0:46:31.360
<v Speaker 1>of yards. He says a fullback. Right. One year he

0:46:31.520 --> 0:46:34.840
<v Speaker 1>led the Big eight in rushing at Oklahoma State. Believe

0:46:34.880 --> 0:46:38.160
<v Speaker 1>it or not. I said, are you serious? He was like,

0:46:38.280 --> 0:46:40.000
<v Speaker 1>whoa what do you mean? And I said, you were

0:46:40.080 --> 0:46:45.360
<v Speaker 1>a fullback, hey man. He could run and run and

0:46:45.480 --> 0:46:48.919
<v Speaker 1>he'd run through a wall to Oh, by the way,

0:46:49.520 --> 0:46:54.800
<v Speaker 1>Bay talked about Rayphael right catching his touchdown. They actually

0:46:54.920 --> 0:47:00.520
<v Speaker 1>showed the video and there right there newspaper clipping and

0:47:00.920 --> 0:47:05.000
<v Speaker 1>a confirmation a tight end. He was number eighty five,

0:47:05.200 --> 0:47:10.239
<v Speaker 1>eighty five video, Yes, and it wasn't necessarily on the sideline.

0:47:10.239 --> 0:47:12.360
<v Speaker 1>It was kind of like over the million who showed it?

0:47:12.840 --> 0:47:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Uh NFL network. Okay they did, did they make the

0:47:17.120 --> 0:47:21.000
<v Speaker 1>claim that he was wearing the number eighty five and

0:47:21.600 --> 0:47:24.640
<v Speaker 1>entire show, and we tipped them off clarified that it

0:47:24.800 --> 0:47:28.880
<v Speaker 1>was a tight end. They knew it was a tight end,

0:47:29.000 --> 0:47:31.839
<v Speaker 1>but just for the sake of the story itself, they

0:47:31.960 --> 0:47:35.760
<v Speaker 1>called him and off there you go. They fake news again.

0:47:36.719 --> 0:47:40.160
<v Speaker 1>But the real story here, they actually did say that

0:47:40.280 --> 0:47:43.839
<v Speaker 1>he was they want they wanted to continue the narrative. Yeah,

0:47:43.960 --> 0:47:47.880
<v Speaker 1>well so we we have corrected and clarified the narrative

0:47:47.960 --> 0:47:50.759
<v Speaker 1>and Calie Rayfield, right, was a tight end on that time.

0:47:50.800 --> 0:47:55.160
<v Speaker 1>I passed the picture onto the Cowboys PR department that

0:47:55.320 --> 0:47:59.160
<v Speaker 1>showed that he had the ball in his hands eighty five.

0:47:59.680 --> 0:48:03.719
<v Speaker 1>He looked good, right, he looked really good. He was laid.

0:48:04.040 --> 0:48:06.160
<v Speaker 1>He was a hell of a yeah, he was excited.

0:48:06.719 --> 0:48:10.799
<v Speaker 1>Think about that. And he ended up at was at

0:48:10.880 --> 0:48:17.360
<v Speaker 1>Valdosta State. He's no Fort Valley Valley, George. Yeah, and

0:48:17.480 --> 0:48:21.160
<v Speaker 1>now man, and that's where shine, and that's where he

0:48:21.400 --> 0:48:24.320
<v Speaker 1>ended up in college, right, because probably didn't have a

0:48:24.400 --> 0:48:27.200
<v Speaker 1>lot of opportunity Fort Valley. Now he's what do you

0:48:27.280 --> 0:48:30.720
<v Speaker 1>think his playing weight was, even as a offensive tackle.

0:48:33.040 --> 0:48:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I bet he was in the two six. I wouldn't

0:48:37.840 --> 0:48:40.439
<v Speaker 1>be surprised if he was two fifty. Well, he was playing.

0:48:41.440 --> 0:48:44.759
<v Speaker 1>It really didn't look good. And the only reason he

0:48:44.880 --> 0:48:49.719
<v Speaker 1>got that scholarship is he was already as he told

0:48:49.760 --> 0:48:54.440
<v Speaker 1>the story, Uh, he signed up for the military and

0:48:54.760 --> 0:48:59.319
<v Speaker 1>he had to pull strings for someone to allow him

0:48:59.440 --> 0:49:03.560
<v Speaker 1>out of his military commitment to go to college. And

0:49:03.800 --> 0:49:08.359
<v Speaker 1>whoever did that basically told him, when you go there,

0:49:08.640 --> 0:49:11.480
<v Speaker 1>you got to finish, otherwise you're back in the military.

0:49:12.040 --> 0:49:15.120
<v Speaker 1>And uh, he ended up finishing, and they convinced him

0:49:15.160 --> 0:49:18.719
<v Speaker 1>to play football. About that, I'm gonna stay here, not

0:49:18.880 --> 0:49:23.839
