1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,560 Speaker 1: Good morning, Jerry. How are you, Jay Sean r J? 2 00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 1: Good to be on today? Real good, it is real 3 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: good is your mood. You're always in a good mood. 4 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 1: You're always optimistic, half glass empty. But have you been 5 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,320 Speaker 1: kind of floating around here the past month or past 6 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:18,119 Speaker 1: few weeks even better mood than normal. Well, I haven't 7 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:21,919 Speaker 1: had any problem getting a smile. I'll tell you. You know, 8 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: a lot of times you don't feel in that good 9 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,640 Speaker 1: mood until you come out of that showering and you've 10 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: got to make up some things to focus on so 11 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: that you don't worry about the problems of the moment 12 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 1: of the day. So lately, all you've got to do 13 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 1: is slip over there and think about this team and 14 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: think about how it's getting better, think about the great 15 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: way it's coming together. That obviously was a happening there 16 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: Sunday night. That just can make the intangible thing that 17 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: can lead you and to getting better. And to me, 18 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:06,680 Speaker 1: that's what happened. That's why that was so important. Yeah, Jerry, 19 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: give us your game assessment of the way you guys 20 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 1: were able to pull that out with Cooper Russian quarterback, Well, 21 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 1: I think the key is that he rewarded the confidence 22 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: if you will, that staff had hit him. Coaches and 23 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 1: really Dak Dak before the game with the team talked 24 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 1: about how Cooper had over the years been so important 25 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: and he had such confidence in him, and he gave 26 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: the team a real assurance that Cooper could get the 27 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: job done. I think that was very meaningful. The team 28 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: played so confidently around him, and he played with confidence 29 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: that he gained from being around the team. You know, 30 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: we really can't state and Oper state the importance of 31 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: that confidence and believing because the quarterback is going to 32 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: make some bonehead play, so to speak, and it just happens, 33 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: and the defense makes you do that a lot of times. 34 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: So having said that, confidence is the word that comes 35 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: to me about how he played and how the team 36 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: played around me. Jerry, did you get a chance to 37 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: see the footage of his dad and his family celebrating 38 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: or did you run into them after the game? I did. 39 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: I did not see them after the game, but I 40 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: did get to see them celebrating and saw some of 41 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: those shots of them just in deep concent concentra nation, 42 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: if you will, as he was playing in the game, 43 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: I can imagine how they were hanging on everything he 44 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 1: was doing out there. It's really phenomenal to me that 45 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: he could come in there and have the presence of 46 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: mind to be his first time really to have that 47 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: on his back like that and play at that level. 48 00:02:55,200 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: That's that's very rare and really exceptional good our team 49 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: tremendous confidence as we look down the road, Jerry, when 50 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: you see how he played and that the team won, 51 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: does this factor into a decision of maybe bringing Dak 52 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: back or resting him another game, like, hey, you know 53 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: we might be able to steal another one, get Dak 54 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: even healthier, or do you not look at injuries and 55 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,799 Speaker 1: return like who your backup is and really care about that. Well, 56 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: the thing is that it was true last week and 57 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: it will be again true this week. We want to 58 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: see how Dak is responding. We have every reason to 59 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: think that he's own go and he should be ready 60 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: to go. This will give him quite a layoff concluding 61 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: the bye week that we had, so we have every 62 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: reason to think that he'll be on the field for 63 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: us this week. But we should take a look at 64 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: it and engage how he's responding. He's the key. He 65 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: can tell you he's stealing and whether or not he's 66 00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: comfortable or not. How close was the called, Jerry, what 67 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: was it really up until game time? Or you guys 68 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: knew deep down a few days before Cooper would get 69 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: the start. Well, I think it was a game time decision. 70 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: And had he been able to go out there and 71 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: really have just no sensitivity and no consequences. But we 72 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: were on a thin decision making course here, and when 73 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: I say thin, we saw that we had the luxury 74 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: of being able to try it without him, And when 75 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: you looked at everything at play here, it felt like 76 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: that we would be conservative as to playing him, and 77 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: I think that was the key. And had, like I said, 78 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: as late in the game as the night before, even 79 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: before his work out there Sunday morning, we were anticipating 80 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: that he might not be the starter. Jerry Jones, I 81 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: was shown in our every Tuesday at this time. Let's 82 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 1: talk about this defensive performance, arguably the best defensive game 83 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: that you all played this year in terms of the tackling, 84 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: the Randy Gregory pressure. Just speak to Dan Quinn and 85 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: the job that your defensive players did against Minnesota and 86 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 1: those weapons. The word to me here is how aggressive 87 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: the intensity And it's in my mind, it's led by 88 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: Randy Gregory. Randy is just exuding competition, he's exuding aggressiveness, 89 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: and you know, he's smartest whip, and he does have 90 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: that I call it that Charles Haley intellect that allows 91 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: him to his physical approach to what's going on. He 92 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: knows that's inspiring and knows it could be intimidating to 93 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 1: the opponent. And you've got to deliver the goods. Now, 94 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: you've got to really be a great player to make 95 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 1: pulled that off. But in Randy's case, he is. He 96 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 1: does at foray. Right near the end when we got 97 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: those couple of penalties, almost got at least almost got 98 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: two penalties. That wasn't but design, but that had a 99 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: that had a real effect of, I think, creating more 100 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: intensity for the team that locker room. When those Gays 101 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: came in after that win, I don't know that I've 102 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: been in one where it was just almost uncontrollable passion 103 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 1: or just uncontrollable fealing what they had just accomplished and 104 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,799 Speaker 1: what they were feeding off of. I'm talking about the players. 105 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,599 Speaker 1: It was quite an atmosphere in that locker room. Wow. 106 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: And of course you guys overcame things, you had tire 107 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: and leave the game for a half. Diggs got banged 108 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: up on that final drive. Even Stevens seemed optimistic about 109 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: Dak versus Denver. How about tiring and Trey Vaughan for 110 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 1: this upcoming week, again, we'll have to see how Tying 111 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: practice and say, it's a spur and so we'll take 112 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: a look at that as moves through. We should and 113 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: will practice with alternatives to him being out there, but 114 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: it'll really depend on how he does again respond to 115 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: a spur that's given him some anxiety right now, not anxiety, 116 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: just given him some pain. Jerry, what is Lael's role 117 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: with the team right now? Well, obviously he's an outstanding 118 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: offensive lineman, specifically with I don't have to sound right, 119 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: but he's the enforcer and that's a big statement. He 120 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: really has a lot of the ara that you want 121 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: for an offensive line to be. They need to be 122 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: that for a team in my mind, and that is 123 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: we're just going to run it down their throat. He's 124 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: the leader of that group and so I think that 125 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: my hats off to him the way he's handled his 126 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: off the field stuff during this past If he will 127 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: a year and a half and he did not have 128 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: a good training camp because of limitations on coming back 129 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: with his surgery, and so he wasn't able to really 130 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: improve and really have the preparation that you'd like to 131 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: see him have. But he'll he's getting there and he 132 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: will get there, and this may spur it on because 133 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: he does have really outstanding position flex most offensive women do. 134 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: Some just really have to struggle with it, and that's 135 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: moving around from position to position. You don't ever want 136 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: to move two guys if you don't have to, and 137 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: so he'll serve all of that role. But he's played 138 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: all the positions except center, and we'll use him and 139 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: this could be the time we use him the most. So, Jerry, 140 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: if Tyrone had to miss a game or some time, 141 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: do you think Inseci would stay there at left tackle 142 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: or could you put layl over there? Could you put 143 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: Steel left tackle, will lay All back to his natural 144 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: right tackle spot, or do you still view him as 145 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: a guard? How would that work up front if Tyron's out? Okay, 146 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 1: it was a question, but you actually had your answer. 147 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: You've covered all the bases right there, and that'll get 148 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: worked out. It'll get worked out here pretty early this 149 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: week as they work through look at what we're up 150 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 1: against with Denver, and then look at what we may 151 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: be dealing with, and we'll see it practice there Wednesday 152 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: and go from there. But you know, our coaches have 153 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: a good idea of where they're wanting to go with 154 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: this thing, but at the end of the day, will 155 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: see how it works on the field at practice. Jared, 156 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: I have a question about injury mystery, like do you 157 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: guys Xavier Woods after the game said, well, were we 158 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: were preparing for Dak? How often? How can you guys 159 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: tell when being vague about injury status really gives you 160 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 1: that advantage to make them prepare for Cooper Rush or 161 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: Dak or who you would play at left tackle and 162 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: right tackle? How because us as fans were like everyone 163 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: does this? How much does it actually matter? Can you 164 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: give your input on that? Well, unless they've got cameras 165 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: at your practice they being the opponent team, which they don't. 166 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: But unless they have that, it makes all the difference 167 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: in the world. You have a big drop off when 168 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: a player does not get his weekly preparation to play 169 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,959 Speaker 1: the team on the weekend. You have a big drop 170 00:10:55,000 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: off preparation, the reputation just getting your wrapped around them. 171 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: Different attributes of the players you're playing in front of 172 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: or competing a guest. That is huge. Randy White invented 173 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: the idea of preparation and so that if you anticipate 174 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: another player in there, especially at a key position like 175 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: a quarterback or you could even make the case for 176 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: a left tackle, that preparation could make all the difference 177 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: in the world. And there's no question that you would 178 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: approach your game with some different technique or some different 179 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: emphasis if certain players were playing or not playing. So 180 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: it's big. It's big. It's singularly the best thing I 181 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: know to keep your mouth shut during the week as 182 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: to who's going to be playing a position if there's 183 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: a question mark. It's singularly the most effective tact that 184 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: you can do apart from being on the field and 185 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 1: is out football at him. Good answer, and we know 186 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: you're excited about reinforcements coming. Do you have any status 187 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: update on DeMarcus Lawrence and Michael Gallup coming back. Well, 188 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 1: Michael is the closest of the two you just mentioned. 189 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: DeMarcus is making tremendous progress and of course what we 190 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: have to fear on him is when he gets out 191 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: there because he doesn't know but one gear and that 192 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: is all out every day, every day, all the way 193 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: every day, so to speak. That the bottom line is 194 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: that he is progressing. Don't look for him in the 195 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: next couple of weeks. But we don't want to say 196 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 1: too much about that either do in terms of our opponents. 197 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: So the point is that Gallup will be the first 198 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: one up between the two Jerry. The deadline is here, 199 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: trade deadline. The Rams made a big move yesterday getting 200 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: von Miller. Do y'all look at what you know other 201 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: teams have done, and you know prior to the deadline, 202 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: and react to what they might do. Division mats or 203 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: guys you are fighting with for that top spot. Well, 204 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: I think you need to stay aware of what you're 205 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: what you're what other clubs are doing where they're looking 206 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: to improve. Of course, all of that goes out the 207 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: window after today with the deadline over, I mean the 208 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: time to trade over. But again, the things that I've 209 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: seen that were really outstanding and made the best sense 210 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: was when the phone rings and they come to you. 211 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: That's all the difference in the world. And it is 212 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: really hard to go get. You pay a huge price, 213 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: a premium when you go get But if you'll sit 214 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: there and take it and then something comes along it 215 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: just happens to hit you right between. That is good. 216 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 1: Then that's something to think about there. But I don't 217 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: look for us to be doing anything to do Jerry Philosophically, 218 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: how do you weigh you know, if there was a 219 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 1: piece out there that someone came calm with versus not 220 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: disrupting something special you have going on right now, not 221 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: wanting to mix this up, versus adding something that would 222 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: seem to make sense on paper, how do you how 223 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: do you weigh that? Where you weigh it, You really 224 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: do weigh it, and you weigh the impact of the 225 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: move relative to your overall plan, whether it be the 226 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: cap or or whether it be what your plans looking 227 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: ahead at the draft, just your whole makeup. Everything goes 228 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: into it, and uh, you know that really is what 229 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: you you have is if you have an individual or 230 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: individuals that's got the whole picture in their mind, and 231 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: you can't just go off with one tangent of a 232 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: decease here, and so everything has to go into it. 233 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: Planning ahead, looking ahead at the players you've got when 234 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: their contracts are up, all of those things. Let me 235 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: say this, do you put an emphasis on what you got, 236 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: don't mess with it, it's rolling, it's going good. Do 237 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 1: you put an emphasis on the help on the way 238 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: that we have on our own team? Do you put 239 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: an emphasis that you've got some young players that you 240 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: really do want to get out there, don't bring a 241 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: progress stopper. And then by all means you take into 242 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: consideration the personality, but the ethos, if you will, of 243 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: who you bring in. They can be very impactful, and 244 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: it can be impactful for who you're bringing in. They 245 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: may not work with the group that you've got. Deon Sanders. 246 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: When we brought Dion in, I first went to Michael, 247 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: and I went to Troy and I went to him 248 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: it and I told him about Dion and I said, 249 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: now he's going to be paid a huge amount. What 250 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: do you think? And they gave me their opinion. And 251 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: then I got in front of the whole team and 252 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: I got upon a blackboard in front of the entire team, 253 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: and I said, y'all, look at this decision. And I 254 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: put up on that board how much he was gonna 255 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: make and I said, dude, we can bring him in. 256 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: And I mean it sounded like an eruption. Hell, yes, 257 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: there it is awesome, trade deadlines and stuff with Jerry Jones. 258 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: It's at three pm today and the Cowboys are rolling. 259 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: Let's keep it going against Denver and we'll hear you 260 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: on Friday on the station. Jerry, Thank you, Hey guys,
