But you do bring in a guy 76 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 7: knowing that you are losing Jordan Phillips to I R. 77 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:53,119 Speaker 2: It's concerning. 78 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 7: It's concerning not only the way that you looked in 79 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 7: the Saints game, but then as new he just stated, 80 00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 7: you have the number one offense with oh, by the way, 81 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 7: one of the best beasts of running backs that is 82 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 7: going to be on the field with you on Sunday. 83 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 2: I mean, it's concerning. 84 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 7: And the thing about the performance that you had against 85 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 7: the Saints, you gave up one hundred and ninety yards 86 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 7: on the ground. You know that a team like Baltimore 87 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 7: is going to get on track by running the ball. 88 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 7: They're gonna They're not gonna set their attention towards throwing 89 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 7: to flowers or doing any of that. They're gonna feed 90 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 7: their running back and try and get their running back 91 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 7: get their running game back on the tracks as well. 92 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 7: You look at a coach in Harball who has been 93 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 7: fundamentally believed the defense in the running game, and that's 94 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 7: something that they've always been able to bring to every 95 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 7: city that they go to. And as we know, defenses 96 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 7: and running games do travel, and so I think that 97 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 7: our defense, if it has never been a get right 98 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,039 Speaker 7: game for a defense, this one is it. Because you 99 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 7: gotta find a way to generate stops. And oh, by 100 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 7: the way, as we're talking about Derrick Henry, they got 101 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 7: a guy over there in Lamar Jackson that is a 102 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 7: change agent in football and one of those guys that 103 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 7: you gotta scheme up for to try and stop. 104 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 6: And I will say this when it comes to the 105 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 6: Baltimore in Dallas' defense. 106 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 2: When you look at Dallas's. 107 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 6: Defense, the backs that they kind of usually struggle against 108 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 6: are those quick, hit the whole like a you know, 109 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,239 Speaker 6: like a lightning bolt type of backs. One thing about 110 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 6: Derrick Henry is he's not that hit the hole with 111 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 6: the you know, like a lightning boat. He's kind of 112 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 6: those labor through here. But once he gets going, now 113 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 6: it's kind of hard to stop him. He's like the juggernaut. 114 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 6: But if you can get to him at that line 115 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 6: of scrimmage, if you can stop his momentum before he 116 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 6: gets going, he's a back that you can kind of 117 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 6: corral a little bit. And I've seen the Dallas Cowboys 118 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 6: defense have success against those bigger, physical laboring type backs. 119 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 6: So that's one thing I will say. But if you 120 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 6: don't got the guys on the inside to at least 121 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 6: make those holes money, and you're giving him holes that 122 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 6: we saw Kamar run through. 123 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 2: I mean he kissed the baby. It might be curtains, so. 124 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 4: Heck refreshment memory. Carlos Watkins, we've seen him before. 125 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 7: Yes, we have not fantastic twenty one to twenty two, 126 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 7: those are not fantastic years to talk about. 127 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 2: I mean, I like how you do it set it up. 128 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 5: We've seen Carlos before. 129 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 4: And where was Carlos located last before the Cowboys just 130 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 4: recently got him commanders? Was he on a on a 131 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 4: practice squad? 132 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 7: I mean, at this point, I don't think you can 133 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 7: get Jones in a trade from Kansas City. You're not 134 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 7: gonna get Aaron Donalds. So when I say that, I 135 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 7: wasn't trying to wow you with the fact that we 136 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 7: have Carlos Watkins. 137 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 4: You're bringing the facts. Yeah, this is not a slam 138 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 4: on you at all. You're bringing the facts. I'm just 139 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 4: trying to make sure that you know, we remember the 140 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 4: last time we saw Carlos it was. 141 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 5: Oh hey, yeah, we're good. They we're good. 142 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 7: This is I mean, look, hey, it was concerning. It 143 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 7: was concerning before you had Carlos Watkins. And I think 144 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 7: again for this defense, no matter what they're thinking, koz 145 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 7: Zimmer has been through the ringer of these last couple 146 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 7: of days because everybody's questioning him, his tenure in the NFL, 147 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 7: his defense. 148 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 2: What is he dated? Is he out did all all 149 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:07,479 Speaker 2: that stuff. 150 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 7: And I think once you start those those whispers about 151 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 7: a coach that's been in this game, that's had some success, 152 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 7: that's got a dig on his skin a little bit, 153 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 7: and his guys are responsible for that. He fell on 154 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 7: his sword. He said it was you know, it was 155 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 7: what I was calling. It wasn't on the guy's effort. 156 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 7: The guys were saying, hell no, it was our effort. 157 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 7: So look, we will see on Sunday, because you know, 158 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 7: you have a team in front of you that has 159 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 7: one of the best.

You didn't see it in free agency. 188 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 4: They tried to make a couple moves here at at 189 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 4: the end of camp, bringing in some bodies, but as 190 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 4: you talked about Church. 191 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 5: You guys are old on the street for a reason. 192 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 4: And after the Saints ate you up for one hundred 193 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 4: and ninety yards, we see more issues.

Yea, At 202 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 4: what point in time do these guys stand up here 203 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 4: and fight back. This is an embarrassing moment. Is one 204 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 4: where this is where the old players got to come 205 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 4: back here?

And those are the things that that 224 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 7: locker room can't. They gotta they gotta block all of 225 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 7: that out because this is this is a gut check time. 226 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,199 Speaker 7: You know, for lack of better words, this is must 227 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 7: win whatever, it's a gut check game. And put it 228 00:10:59,160 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 7: on the put it on the. 229 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 2: As well man. 230 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 7: Put it on coach Mike McCarthy, because I think what 231 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 7: people have really had a gripe with him is his 232 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 7: team's being ready in those moments. You didn't feel like 233 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 7: they were ready last year doing the playoffs, some of 234 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 7: the biggest games where they were coming up against some high, 235 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 7: you know, heightened opponents, and they didn't show up. I mean, yeah, 236 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 7: we can show up versus the five hundred, the little 237 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 7: below five hundreds, and we could flex our muscles, but 238 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 7: in order to get to that next step get over 239 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 7: the hump. As people say, you're going to have to 240 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 7: beat some of these upper echelon teams. Now the tape 241 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 7: is out. Yeah, the tape is out. And I don't 242 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 7: care what neighborhood you grew up in. If you're with 243 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 7: a guy that's always getting picked on, the bully, do on. 244 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 7: They didn't even have to know you to come and 245 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 7: pick on you, right, And so every team that comes 246 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 7: to at and T Stadium think that they can do 247 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 7: the same thing that the Saints did, that the forty 248 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 7: nine ers did, that Green Bay did, because it's an 249 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 7: equation that works each and every time. And so to 250 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 7: speak to what you're saying, it's on the coaching staff. 251 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 7: You guys got to be ready. I don't care what 252 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 7: bus you got to get on to get out here. 253 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 7: Once you got to get on the first bus, the 254 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 7: second bus, but you better be ready when. 255 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 2: You get to the stadium. 256 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 4: I'll give you some of that, But I'm still the 257 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 4: same guy that gave McCarthy credit because they went against 258 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 4: went out there against Cleveland and they ended up getting 259 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 4: it done. But you know, if we could jump and 260 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 4: do podcasts and we can sign new contracts, and we 261 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 4: can do all these things. 262 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 5: This is the play. This is still player's lead. This 263 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 5: is about dudes. 264 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 2: And Barry, you speak to him. 265 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 4: You know, Coach can sit up here and give you 266 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 4: the plan all day long. You gotta go out here 267 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 4: and execute it. But most of Mike McCarthy and Mike Zimmer, 268 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 4: they're not standing there on that field getting beating them 269 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 4: out and taking it. 270 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 2: Yep. 271 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 5: And he can't walk out there and do it for you. 272 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 5: I mean, this is some time, and Michael, they're running 273 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 5: at you.

I mean, you guys gonna take that. 277 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 4: I remember one time, and this is baseball, but got 278 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 4: picked the home run, and but show Walts was the 279 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 4: manager and he just looked down the bitch. He just 280 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 4: looked at him, looked back and he said, you know 281 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 4: he ain't seen oracks. Oh you okay with this?

You 289 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 4: can tell you mom and daddy all day long, but 290 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 4: you're the one that got to go to school.

And that was that 302 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 4: ninety two season. They ended up winning Super Bowl. Some 303 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,560 Speaker 4: point time, you got a man up. You have to 304 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 4: be an active participant in your own rescue. Mike McCarthy 305 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 4: can't save you. 306 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 5: You in the. 307 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 4: Water, drowning, Grab a stick, swim to this show.

But like you said, I'm a 312 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 4: flaw since I go across the end zone. They're taking it, man, 313 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 4: and here come the Ravens at zero and two. And 314 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 4: you know what they you know what they're gonna do. 315 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 4: You know what they're gonna do. 316 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 7: So let me ask you this, and I agree with 317 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 7: you that the sense of I call it a gut 318 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 7: check situation. For the players, Micha McCarthy is on. I 319 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 7: don't know the hours, minutes, and seconds that he's gonna 320 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 7: be here, but he can't stand to have another embarrassment 321 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 7: like this at home. And that's that's what I'm speaking to. 322 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 7: Michael's gonna be here, Okay, Michael's gonna be here. Trayvon 323 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 7: Diggs is gonna be here these that's happening to these guys. 324 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 7: I'm talking about the coaches that are on month. They 325 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 7: got a couple of months in this deal. So you 326 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 7: have got to get this thing under control. You can't 327 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 7: have guy show up to the stadium and think they're 328 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 7: just gonna roll their helmets out there and gods are 329 00:14:58,480 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 7: gonna lay down. 330 00:14:59,120 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 2: That's not gonna happen. 331 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 7: And that's why I put the onus there on the 332 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 7: coaches as well, because if you don't get these guys 333 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 7: ready and they lose something that somebody else scored another 334 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 7: forty burger at home. 335 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 6: I bear raight, mi raight, But it goes exactly what 336 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 6: you said. You gotta go out there and you gotta 337 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 6: punch the bully in the mouth. Sometimes we saw example 338 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 6: after example of this defense going out there, even. 339 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 2: In offenses as well. If you look at that offensive. 340 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 6: Line, it's the one on one opportunities. That's all that 341 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 6: football comes down to. In my opinion. I mean, you 342 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 6: just scheme everything up. You can get your players with 343 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 6: opportunities to go out there and make big plays. You 344 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 6: can scheme you know, Michael Parson's being able to loop 345 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 6: around and get to the quarterback back the end of 346 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 6: the day, he's got to win some type. 347 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 2: Of one on one out there to make that scheme 348 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 2: come alive. 349 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 6: When you looked out there on that defensive side of 350 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 6: the football, and that's because I played that sass, that's 351 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 6: the side I'm gonna talk. 352 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: To, there was no wins. People were veil. 353 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 6: Crow to the offensive lineman out there, not getting off 354 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 6: of blocks. There was a stat out there that said 355 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 6: Alvin Kamara had one hundred and thirty eight yards total. 356 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 2: Before he even got touch. 357 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 6: Like if you add up everything before he reached contact, 358 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 6: it was one hundred and thirty eight yards like that. 359 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 6: That that to me is embarrassing. And like you said, 360 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 6: he gets into the in so he's leaning up against 361 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 6: the railer. This is easy to me. That's what it 362 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 6: made it look like to me. And now it's embarrassing. 363 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 6: And you you heard the players. They talked about it. Man, 364 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 6: we can't let this happen. It's a punch in mouth. 365 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 6: We gotta retaliate, we gotta respond. But there's only so 366 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 6: much you can scheme. You gotta go out there and 367 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 6: you gotta get the job done. As players, somebody got 368 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 6: to step up and they gotta get the job done. 369 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 6: And so far this year they were able to do 370 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 6: it against a lackluster Cleveland team that you pointed out 371 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 6: without those two tackles. I mean compromise. It was a compromise, 372 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 6: you know we did. We kind of glossed over there, 373 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 6: but that was compromising. Now the Saints team that nobody 374 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 6: had respect for, I know I didn't going into this 375 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 6: game and going into the season, and they came and 376 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 6: embarrassed you at your own front and your own home place. 377 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 2: And that's the second one in the row. You're talking 378 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 2: about home games. 379 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 6: Because Green Bay came into the same thing. And it's 380 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 6: not like it's just one phase of the football game. 381 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 6: We were able to run and throw the football with ease. 382 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 6: You gotta be able to go out there and win 383 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 6: your one on one opportunities. It comes down to the 384 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 6: player scheme. Everything you want to but at the end 385 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 6: of the day, those one on one opportunities you got 386 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 6: to take advantage of. 387 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 7: That's what's scary about this game. That's what's scary about 388 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 7: it because if you get embarrassed the same way again, 389 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 7: if you get embarrassed the same way, if King Henry is, 390 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 7: if Derrick Henry is leaning up against the you know 391 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 7: got it. If Lamar Jackson does has those big eighty 392 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 7: yard crazy runs that you know Lamar Jackson is able 393 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 7: to have, it's look, it's going to be demoralizing and 394 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 7: not only is a fan base, but as a team 395 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 7: to see that continuously happen and you not be able 396 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,400 Speaker 7: to do anything about it, and nobody has any backbone 397 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 7: to stop it. Nobody stands up and says, look, got 398 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 7: this on us. We got to go do something about it. 399 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 7: Did you see that on the sideline? 400 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 2: I didn't. 401 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 7: Y'all was looking for it. I didn't see it. I 402 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 7: didn't see that one guy that was saying, look. 403 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 2: Radley, the truth. 404 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 6: Something was here in twenty ten. Look uncle Wade, who's out? 405 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 6: I messed with Uncle Wade heavy. That was my guy 406 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,919 Speaker 6: players coach.

So Mike McCarthy has 481 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 4: a bounce back factor very well. This is going to 482 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 4: be a challenge because here's a team coming in here 483 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 4: that's zero and two that a lot of people like 484 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 4: myself thought we'll go to win the division. I actually 485 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 4: had this team in the Super Bowl. They lost at 486 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 4: home to the Raiders and Gardner Minshew. That was embarrassing. 487 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 4: They lost their first game on Thursday night to the 488 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 4: Kansas City Chiefs. You fall the oh to three, you 489 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 4: about to be in some trouble here. Cowboys do not 490 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,200 Speaker 4: want to fall the O and two at home. You're 491 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 4: gonna be in some trouble if you can't win these 492 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 4: home games here. So this is going to become a 493 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 4: battle of wills and a battle of character here. Dak 494 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 4: Prescott has played against the Ravens. He was twenty seven 495 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 4: to thirty six four three hundred and one yards and 496 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 4: three touchdowns as a rookie. That's the last time he 497 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 4: played against Baltimore. I was twenty sixteen. He did not 498 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 4: play against the Ravens in twenty twenty. That was because 499 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 4: of the ankle injury that he suffered early in the season. 500 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 4: So this is Dak's second time facing these Ravens. All right, heck, 501 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 4: ma Harrison, I know you start to study just a 502 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 4: little bit here with some of the matchups. 503 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, I have, and I think that the Baltimore Ravens 504 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 7: are still surprising that they're O and two Kansas City game. 505 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 7: As we all watched that one as a banner was 506 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 7: lifted in Kansas City. That was a close ball game. 507 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 7: But I think you you started to see that the 508 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 7: Lamar Jackson still has a bunch of talent on his roster, 509 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 7: but they lost a lot. They lost fifteen players last 510 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,400 Speaker 7: year to free agency and a lot of the big 511 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 7: part of that came from their offensive line. They're struggling 512 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,719 Speaker 7: in that department with the losses that they have, but 513 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 7: you talk about who they do have and for me, 514 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 7: and there's something that you pointed out, and we've talked 515 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 7: a lot about safeties, and I'm kind of leading you 516 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 7: in to this. They have a guy by the name 517 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 7: of Isaiah likely from the coast of Carolina, and I'm 518 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 7: gonna tell you, like a fourth round draft pick. Then 519 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 7: it just amazes me how barry they miss on guys. 520 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 7: I mean, he's a guy that's taking the fourth round 521 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,880 Speaker 7: that clearly should have been drafted higher. Just a very 522 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 7: talented dude. I mean, route runner has hands and for 523 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 7: our safeties, I think Dunban. Wilson's kryptonite is a a 524 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 7: is a guy that can rout him up and a 525 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 7: tight and a tight end that can route him up. 526 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 2: Yes, and we saw We've. 527 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 7: Talked about this with Kittle and then some of those 528 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 7: other matchups, but that's just a longer line of scrimmage. 529 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 7: One of those guys in the box that could come downhill. 530 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 7: I love him in that capacity. What we've seen also 531 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 7: from our linebacker is that is they're a lot better 532 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 7: now with the way these guys run, but we haven't 533 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,680 Speaker 7: seen them. We see them up against Joku. Joko got hurt, 534 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 7: went out. But I think this is a bigger test 535 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 7: for them. And not only I mentioned in Isaiah likely 536 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 7: they also have the all everything Mark Andrews take and 537 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 7: they have paid him a grip. So Mark Andrews is 538 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 7: going to be a part of that as well. The 539 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 7: other thing that I want to say, and I wanted 540 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 7: to get your feedback on, is how you scheme as 541 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 7: a defense for Lamar Jackson, Because in my thought, Barry 542 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 7: is if you go man cover zero in any situation 543 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 7: versus Lamar, and you bliss en and you miss. So 544 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 7: so you know that I know that, So the for 545 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 7: the defense. I'm trying to come up with this with 546 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 7: a plan that says, look, this is how you stop 547 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 7: this team because number one is obviously stopped to run. 548 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 7: But I'm just telling you how they can also hurt 549 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 7: you in the passing. 550 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, the Cowboys, in my opinion, they're in a little 551 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 6: bit of a pickle right now, a little bit of 552 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 6: a pickle when you talk about these matchups, because to me, 553 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 6: Isaiah Likely is probably one of the hardest matchups as 554 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 6: far as a tight end in the National Football League. 555 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 6: You put a linebacker on hem gonna outrun him. You 556 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 6: put a safety on him, he's gonna he's gonna route 557 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 6: him up. And if you use your resources to put 558 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 6: a corner or nickel on them, let's just say they 559 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 6: put you know, Jordan Lewis, he's too small. He's too 560 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 6: small for a guy like Isaiah Likely. And that's one 561 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 6: of the guys that when everything breaks down, Lamar Jackson 562 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 6: starts scrambling around back there. That's who he's looking for 563 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 6: to add lib and make a play. So, to me, 564 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 6: Isaiah Likely is gonna be a tough, tough matchup for 565 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 6: this Dallas Cowboys defense. Now, when you talk about trying 566 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 6: to contain a guy like Lamar Jackson. 567 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 2: Yes, that's the that's the key. 568 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:53,439 Speaker 6: Right there, and it is gonna be tough because you know, 569 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 6: we gotta get We've got a lot of guys out 570 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 6: there with natural ability, natural speed, but you gotta be 571 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 6: able to keep him in the bus. Now, I understand 572 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 6: that's a lot easier said than done, because this guy 573 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 6: makes the fools out of a lot of people in 574 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 6: the phone booth. All right, So I understand it's gonna 575 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 6: be a lot easier said than done. But this is 576 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 6: the type of game where, like Anthony Hitchin said, you 577 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 6: can't have hero ball. You can't have guys over there 578 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 6: and say I'm gonna go out here and make the play. 579 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 6: I'm gonna do this and that to make the play, 580 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 6: you gotta trust your teammates on the inside but on 581 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 6: the outside to be able to do their job. Like, 582 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 6: if it's your job to contain and you see Lamar 583 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 6: sitting there, don't try to go underneath and make a 584 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 6: play because he's gonna make. 585 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 2: You look foolish. You gotta trust that old DIGGI Zoo. 586 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 2: You gotta trust that d law. 587 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 6: These interior players and the other guys on the outside 588 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 6: are gonna do their job and when it comes to you, 589 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 6: you gotta make it. But to me, if you go 590 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 6: out there and you try to blitz this guy, because 591 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 6: Kansas City had some success blitzing Lamar Jackson, but I'm 592 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 6: not so sure we have the guys on the second 593 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 6: level to be able to match up with that. If 594 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 6: he does get through that blitz, and we've seen it 595 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 6: time and time again, if you miss him on that. 596 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 2: Blitz, he's gonna make you pay. 597 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 8: Man. 598 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 6: So to me, this defense is in a bit of 599 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 6: a little pickle right here. But you do have that 600 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 6: one chess piece. You do have overshown out there, and 601 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 6: he's shown the ability to go sideline the sideline and 602 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 6: be able to keep up with some of these guys 603 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 6: in the National Football League. Is that a tall task 604 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 6: for a guy coming in basically his first year. Of 605 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 6: course it is, because Lamar Jackson is that guy. But 606 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 6: you got a chess piece there that you can at 607 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 6: least spy on him and make things difficult for him 608 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 6: to where if he just jumps out the jumps out 609 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 6: the window, he just can't get loose. He Man, you 610 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 6: got a guy and overshown that has the speed that's 611 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 6: at least going to be able to make him go 612 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 6: sideline the sideline and not downfield and where he could 613 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 6: just run straight through your defense. So to me, you 614 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 6: gotta look use over shown last week he only had 615 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 6: what eighteen some snaps out there. This is the game 616 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 6: where he's got to play because I think he's your 617 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 6: chess piece, he's your speed piece on that second level 618 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 6: that can at least contend with a Lamar jacks Let 619 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 6: me just say this, Max Crosby had a hell of 620 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 6: a game. He was at two sacks in that game. 621 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 6: He was just ruptive off the edge. He was a 622 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 6: big time matchup problem for them. Ronnie Staley is going 623 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,239 Speaker 6: to have his hands full with Michael Parsons. And this 624 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 6: is one of those games where all the whispers about 625 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 6: Micah's out, Uh he plays when he wants to, where's 626 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 6: he gonna You know, he has to show up And 627 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 6: I mean you've seen there's there's a road map here 628 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 6: for the success that teams have had against Lamar Jackson, 629 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 6: and a guy like Max Crosby showed you last week 630 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 6: that man, if you if you stay aggressive out on 631 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 6: the edge, Mac Trisby obviously from the fighting Chris Bean 632 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 6: Colinville Heritage High School here uh in in the state 633 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 6: of Texas. 634 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,199 Speaker 2: But man, he was a beast out there and we 635 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 2: need that kind of effort to. 636 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 5: Helping his team. 637 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 6: Harassed in the quarterback, Yeah yeah, yeah, And this is 638 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 6: a big. 639 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 7: Game and they did that to him at home and 640 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 7: so the one needs to me two sacks. 641 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 5: Eight Hutchinson four and a half sacks. Miles Garrett was said, 642 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 5: t J. 643 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, there's a trend. There's a trend. Where's where's Waldo? 644 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 7: But here's what you what you were just talking about 645 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 7: as far as Lamar Jackson stressing your defense because he's 646 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 7: a perpetual scramble drill and. 647 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 2: That's the hardest thing in the second. 648 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 7: You have to stay stuck your man for longer than 649 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 7: you want to and even if you actually have the 650 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,479 Speaker 7: perfect defense, can't stop a guy like Lamar Jackson. And 651 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 7: I mean, I love that you spoke to that, because 652 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 7: I don't think that people even understand how hard that 653 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 7: is to stay at attention for four quarters like that 654 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 7: with a guy that you know that at any moment 655 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 7: he could change the dynamic of this game. 656 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 6: And when he starts getting back there, and he's doing 657 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 6: these scramble jills left and right. It's hard enough to 658 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 6: cover ride receiver concepts when they're. 659 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 2: Running the actual route. 660 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 6: Imagine if you give a guy extra three to four 661 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 6: seconds to just add lib out there. I mean we 662 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 6: see it all the time with Kansas City and Travis 663 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 6: Kelce like, guys will have him locked up and then 664 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 6: here comes this boy Mahomes running around. Next thing you know, 665 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 6: he's looking this way, turning that way. It's impossible to cover. 666 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 6: That's why Russian cover works so much well together. And 667 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 6: like your boy says all the time, you can't the 668 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 6: secondary can't do nothing. If that defensive line ain't working 669 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 6: and they're not then after job, the back does not 670 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 6: work without the front. And if Lamar Jackson got all 671 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 6: day back there and those guys start adding living in 672 00:29:58,360 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 6: the secondary. 673 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 2: I don't care who you have prime out there, I 674 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 2: don't care. 675 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 6: It's hard to cover people that long in the national 676 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 6: football these guys are just too good. 677 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 5: You gotta make Lamar Jackson a pocket pasture. 678 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 4: You want him throwing the ball forty times in Kansas 679 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 4: City had him throwing it forty. 680 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 5: Times, and the Ravens ran a great bunch in that game. 681 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 4: And by the way, we make sure we don't forget 682 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 4: he came back in that game and it looked like 683 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 4: Likely caught the touchdown pass that could have tied it up, 684 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 4: and then he had like like a thw thumb toe 685 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 4: just right there, you're a Kirk toe. Didn't get it 686 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 4: done that light between. If Likely and Andrews are both 687 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 4: hitting and your d line is not able to help 688 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 4: your line back, you can get up. King Henry right, 689 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 4: there's this is a challenge, man, this is a serious challenge. 690 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 4: And we're going and learn a lot about the Dallas. 691 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 7: Cowboys this weekend.

Heck, 776 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 4: all I know is that ride and what they did 777 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 4: last year. 778 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 5: That stuff. There's a couple of things that you just remember. 779 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 2: Coupling teams. 780 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 4: I'll never forget that ride that they went on. I'll 781 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 4: never forget the twenty eleven rides that the Mavericks went 782 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,839 Speaker 4: on and watching it and seeing the whole thing the 783 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:33,279 Speaker 4: next year for both of them. But nah, I'm the organization. 784 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 4: Unlike the Mavericks, the Rangers organization, in my mind, did 785 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 4: everything that they needed to do to try to repeat 786 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 4: and go out here and do it again just didn't happen. 787 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 4: It didn't happen. Guys were injured from the time they had. 788 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 4: It was a mix of both. You know, Corey Seeger 789 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 4: wasn't healthy. I mean, just you had Evan Carter, who 790 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 4: played such a big role last year as a rookie, 791 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 4: as an outfielder. 792 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 5: He was hurt. 793 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 4: Just a lot of stuff didn't go their way, but 794 00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 4: management put the money into it. 795 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,280 Speaker 5: It's not like the players when I loaf and everything. 796 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 5: It just didn't go your way. 797 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 4: It's so hard, and that's one thing that I have 798 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 4: such respect for for the teams that have repeated throughout 799 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 4: sports history. It is hard just to do it once, 800 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 4: but you do it again, you climb the mountain and 801 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 4: everybody knows that's the standard. You're that team, and you 802 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:16,439 Speaker 4: can do it again. 803 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:16,919 Speaker 5: It's hard. 804 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,439 Speaker 4: Bruce Wunch, he's never repeated, and he's won the World 805 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 4: Series four times. I mean, he never even made the 806 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,800 Speaker 4: playoffs next year. I mean, his teams have a falloff. 807 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 4: But having been there in twenty eleven when the Rangers 808 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 4: were won out away from winning the World Series twice 809 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:34,399 Speaker 4: and then to watch them win it. It didn't matter. 810 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 4: They could have been the worst team in baseball. It 811 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:37,439 Speaker 4: had been all good. 812 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,760 Speaker 5: It had been all good because they raised the banner. 813 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,319 Speaker 4: And when you win a championship, man, it is it 814 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 4: is outstanding. If the Cowboys ever won a Super Bowl 815 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 4: again under Jerry and they went and won three games 816 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 4: next year, you know what I say? Okay, fine, because 817 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 4: when you get to that mountain top like that hack, 818 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 4: especially for the fans, and then to watch some of 819 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 4: the long suffering staffers, Man, that was a fun thing 820 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 4: for me because I saw guys who were still with 821 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 4: a team that were there at twenty eleven, just saw 822 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 4: the letdown. I was really happy for them. I felt 823 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 4: bad for Adrian Beltray, Ian Kinsler and Michael Young because 824 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 4: they were on the field at Arizona and they stood 825 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 4: back just first of all, what great leaders. They're like, 826 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 4: hey man, we weren't a part of this. This wasn't 827 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 4: our team. I'm going to stay back. When I tried 828 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,439 Speaker 4: to interview, I'm like, nope, no, you talk to them. 829 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 4: I wasn't a part of this. Had my shot, didn't 830 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 4: get it done. But they were happy for them. And 831 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 4: then you know, two of the guys worked for the organizations, 832 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,919 Speaker 4: so they were gonna get rings anyway. But no, man, 833 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 4: they go out there Sunday, they don't get it done. 834 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:40,839 Speaker 2: Fine, yeah, I'm good with it. 835 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 7: And I think the emotional part of you is obviously like, 836 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 7: hell yeah, they got it done. And you watched the parade, 837 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 7: you were a part of it. And then some teams 838 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 7: in the off season after they win a championship, they 839 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 7: go through wholesale changes where they you know, you know, 840 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 7: get guys off of the roster. It seemed like to 841 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 7: me that the Rangers were trying to get better, you know, 842 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 7: the in the off season as well. And so look, 843 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 7: that's why you look at the Kansas City Chiefs and 844 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 7: what they're doing in their pursuit for a third and 845 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,919 Speaker 7: how you know a team is building and with the 846 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 7: in the salary era, to be able to continue to 847 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 7: play at a high level like that, it's it's really impressive, 848 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,440 Speaker 7: and I think it's a lot. It's a lot harder 849 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 7: than the casual fan gives it to reaching that to 850 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:22,359 Speaker 7: reaching that mountaintop, to be able to win that championship. 851 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:23,320 Speaker 5: It is made. 852 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:26,239 Speaker 4: Against you in the NFL. It's not made for you 853 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 4: to sustain it. They've made rules to try to hurt you. 854 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 4: But this is you know, first off, when you have 855 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 4: generational talent like a Patrick Lomees, you can tell Tyree 856 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 4: Hill thanks and we can go win without you. I 857 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 4: always tell people, look at the running backs. They've gone 858 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:41,760 Speaker 4: through all these different teams that made. 859 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 5: The Super Bowl. And Andy's an exceptional coach. You know, 860 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:46,799 Speaker 5: he's going into the. 861 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 4: Pro Football Hall of Fame and you've got it outstanding 862 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 4: quarterback and they management is giving them what they need. 863 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 5: Chris Jones, Steve spa. 864 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 4: You know, they they they don't put assistant coaches in 865 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 4: the Pro Football Hall of Fame, which is an area 866 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 4: I think they really need to correct. 867 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,280 Speaker 5: Some guys are going to be head coaches. 868 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 4: But you talk about what with Steve Spagnola has done 869 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 4: as a defensive coordinator, and people forget when Bill Belichick's 870 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 4: undefeated Giants team lost Spagnolo, that was Spagnolo getting that done. 871 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 7: Always had great personnel, guys that can rush the passer, 872 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 7: and right now here Jones is probably I mean, it's 873 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 7: a delight if you like, you know, trench warfare, you 874 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 7: like that kind of football. When you see a guy 875 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 7: that side doing what he's doing and moving around on 876 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 7: that defensive line, and people don't give that. Last year 877 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 7: as Kansas City, the Chiefs team enough credit for having 878 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 7: the number one defense and having the kind of leaders 879 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,880 Speaker 7: that they had on that side of the ball. There 880 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 7: was an ugly point in the season where they said, 881 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 7: this is the worst statistical year that they had offensively. 882 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,839 Speaker 7: It was because the defense carried him. And here we 883 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 7: are talking about defense and a defense potentially being able 884 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 7: to carry you at certain points during the season. 885 00:39:57,800 --> 00:39:58,839 Speaker 2: And I don't know about y'all. 886 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:03,439 Speaker 7: After last week, I don't have any hope have left 887 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 7: in that department to think that that's the kind of 888 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:07,399 Speaker 7: balance that we can have as a team. 889 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 4: So, speaking of hopium, I'll give you a sliver. What 890 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 4: if they could figure out how to run the ball? 891 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 4: And we brought up the name Dalvin Cook. We don't 892 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 4: know what they're going to do, but we saw what 893 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 4: they rolled out there last week. 894 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 5: It was unsuccessful, that wasn't it. 895 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 4: So maybe trying Dalvin Cook against his former team because 896 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 4: he played for Baltimore last year, played in the playoff game, 897 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 4: maybe that is something they've got to figure out something 898 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,359 Speaker 4: as a coaching staff, how do you get this run 899 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:42,839 Speaker 4: game going, because if Baltimore is out here running and 900 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 4: putting up numbers that they have had one hundred and 901 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:46,720 Speaker 4: fifty yards last week you had like a bucks seventy 902 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,359 Speaker 4: or something plus against Kansas City, your defense is going 903 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 4: to be worn out. You can't go out here with 904 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:53,840 Speaker 4: a three and out drive. You can't have a drive 905 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 4: that last, you know, two seventeen. I mean, you're going 906 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 4: to have to figure out how to run the ball, 907 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 4: protect to protect. 908 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 7: Can't just take kickfield goals either, you know, you gotta 909 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 7: go score for score with them. 910 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 2: And those are some of the things that changes it up. 911 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 7: I mean, look, you know this is what everybody knows 912 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 7: that it's evaluated the tape on Baltimore. 913 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 2: They're gonna run the ball. 914 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 7: And if your defense cannot be steady enough to not 915 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 7: allow those long sustaining clock draining, it drives. And those 916 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 7: are the things like when you look up, it's like, damn, 917 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 7: they've had the ball for eight minutes quarter, you know, 918 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 7: the whole quarter they take it up, and then not 919 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,560 Speaker 7: only that, they've gone down and they've scored, and then 920 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 7: you get the ball back and it's a three and 921 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 7: out and it just it just starts all over again, 922 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 7: and that's why. Look, when you look at the numbers 923 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 7: on Baltimore, they are great in so many areas, but 924 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 7: then they are really. 925 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 2: Bad in other areas. 926 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:49,439 Speaker 7: So as we know they're gonna run on us, they 927 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,839 Speaker 7: know we're gonna pass on them. And so that's that's 928 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 7: where I think the swing comes in this game. Where 929 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 7: people can whether it's hopingum or not, you can you 930 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 7: can feel like, look, we got seed. You saw what 931 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 7: Devontae Adams did last week versus versus the Ravens. So 932 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 7: in steps our offense to to take advantage of that defense. 933 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 7: And when it comes to our offense, and y'all, I know, 934 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,319 Speaker 7: we love Ma McCarthy and he's the heck of a 935 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 7: play caller on what he does. 936 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,719 Speaker 6: But there's things that they got to get better at. 937 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 6: You know, we talk about this running attack, they got 938 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 6: to get better at it. Do we have the juice 939 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 6: to be able to do that, I'm not so sure. 940 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 6: Even with the Dialbin Cook, I'm not so sure. But 941 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 6: one area that they've got to improve on if they 942 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 6: want to be able to beat these good teams is 943 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,480 Speaker 6: the red zone. I mean, we looked at it the 944 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:32,720 Speaker 6: first two games one for four in the red zone. 945 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 6: You're not gonna win these games. You'll beat Cleveland with 946 00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 6: no tackles off, You'll beat Cleveland, but you're not gonna 947 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 6: beat these good teams. 948 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:40,880 Speaker 2: Going zero for three in the red zone. Kick the 949 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 2: field goals with Brandon Aubrey. 950 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:46,359 Speaker 5: That Bd Aubrey, get me wrong, that's last year's that's 951 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 5: the thing. 952 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 6: You can't do it. You gotta cash it when you 953 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 6: get down there. That's a must. Where's hell Boogie when 954 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 6: you need them? 955 00:42:52,680 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 2: Bring out where pro Bo? Bring out Bookie out. We 956 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 2: need to Pro Bowl, we need to pro bom. 957 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:07,319 Speaker 5: You bring him out something some gotta happ bring him out, 958 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 5: bringing out what you're doing. 959 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 6: So far it has not been has not. It has not, 960 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:13,239 Speaker 6: It don't look like it will. 961 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,399 Speaker 2: Hey, we got a Pro Bowl on the line. I'm 962 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 2: which I hope you go out there and give yourself. 963 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 4: Just remember Cee Lamb's first four games last year. We're 964 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:24,320 Speaker 4: not Pro Bowl games. It took him a minute to 965 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:27,439 Speaker 4: get you did. So maybe that's what Mike needs. Maybe 966 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,439 Speaker 4: Mike has to just kind of stumble into this thing. 967 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,880 Speaker 4: And you don't have like the l Boogie package, Like 968 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 4: what is it? 969 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 6: Something gotta ain't nobody getting open. Outside of nobody's getting open, 970 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 6: you know it is you torpor Mad a hell of 971 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 6: a catch, but he was, he was locked up. 972 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:43,960 Speaker 2: He was. 973 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 6: He made a hell of a catch though, But other 974 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:47,560 Speaker 6: than that, who's getting open? 975 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 7: And that's why you hope that Ferguson can come back 976 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 7: and be healthy. And I mean, even with that knee 977 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,239 Speaker 7: sprain and Bruce, how elusive is he going to be? 978 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 2: How mobile is he going to be? 979 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:57,840 Speaker 7: I don't know, but I know that Dak was missing 980 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 7: a piece of that offense last week, and that was 981 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 7: something that was something that was off and if it 982 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 7: was just that they didn't have Ferguson, Ferguson is a 983 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 7: big part of this offense. 984 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:09,320 Speaker 5: All right, guys, let's continue with tomorrow. 985 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:11,920 Speaker 4: All the players last brought to you by Aristocrat Gaming 986 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 4: on Dallas Cowboys dot Com. 987 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and 988 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,800 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
