He said, Look, nobody ever said you 62 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: had to use your hands to catch it. You're not 63 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: a receiver. Just catch it. You gotta body, you just 64 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: catch it. And from there my otherceptions went up. There 65 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: you go, there you go, before we get into before 66 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: we get into the current Cowboys. Nate was talking to 67 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: me off the air about the Hoopsters back in the day. 68 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: Explain to me what the hoopsters were. Well, here's the 69 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: true story. And I don't know if Nate will follow 70 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: me on this. The original Hoopster started with Drew and 71 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: those guys that Micael Irban took it over, and Eugene 72 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: Eugene Eugene Lockhart and the mice. When Mike got it. 73 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: Mike didn't believe in free agency. He wasn't paying out, 74 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: he was keeping all the money. Then free agency came 75 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: around and I had to go recruit some guys I 76 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: hain't decided natives a free agent and everybody else, baby, 77 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: and to get the money right, you know that, Mike 78 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: came back and want to cut of build me, to 79 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: cut everybody else out. I said, now I can't do 80 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: the guys like that. Yeah, I gotta make our money, baby, 81 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 1: free agency. So What were the hoops? Was it a 82 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 1: basketball traveling basketball team? What were you got travel we 83 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 1: believe it or not. I know it sounds crazy now, 84 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,119 Speaker 1: but we played a thirty game schedule every off season. 85 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: We went to Hawaii, we went to Mexico City, and 86 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: we went everywhere. We played other NFL teams, We played 87 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: charity events and it was, you know, just the way 88 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: to get off in the off season, have some fun. 89 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: It was more about just getting out and having fun 90 00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: than it was just the money. But we had a 91 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: good time. Quickness. What was the gentleman name that sponsors? 92 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: He was a pastor Monty Monty had pastor Dave was wanted. 93 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: Now let me tell you the bad part about the hoot. 94 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: You got guys like Nat and Eric Williams that want 95 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: to run the point, and they got little guys. But 96 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: guess what, you couldn't catch or you couldn't shoot, so 97 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 1: you had to That was it. We had a three 98 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: man point rotation, Nate Leon and he was a three 99 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: man point. We had two small guys. Kevin Smith in 100 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 1: the post wow down before his time. Chambers. What's up, Nate? 101 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: I want to see the handles. All this talk about that, 102 00:05:52,200 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: I'd like to see you up at the one those handles. Yeah, 103 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: oh man, oh, just to be around for that. I 104 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: wish I could have been around to do some play 105 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: by play for it. But I'm gonna tell you. I'm 106 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: gonna tell you another quick one. It was two things. 107 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: Mike had a slight advantage because extra activities came with Mike, 108 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: but I decided to hold onto My marriage is a 109 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: couple of years longer. Song got well, be you believe 110 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: or not? When we could, Yeah, we did normal, it 111 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: was not We all went to hy you together that there. 112 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: Want to thank you for that, man. Yeah, great times, 113 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: that's awesome. That's awesome. All right, let's get into current 114 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: cowboy talk. I am so glad we have a defensive 115 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: guy on the show because all the conversation this season 116 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 1: has been about defense and what's wrong and is it scheme? 117 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: Is it players? And I think I think Nate, we 118 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: talk about this every week on the show. Larry, let's 119 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: get your opinion first. Will will go to you after that. 120 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: Get your opinion, Nate. You can time in Larry. What 121 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: are you seeing on the field? Is it scheme? Is 122 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: it players? Is it a signe? What is going on 123 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: on defense? I think it can be all of the above. 124 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: I'm a believing I mean, I'm not being funny here. 125 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: I believe in ideology meeting this. You know, if when 126 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: you're trying to build a good team, you have to 127 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: get people to buy in and people to believe in 128 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: what you're doing. Coaches make calls, players got to buy 129 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: into it. And I think, and in my opinion, again 130 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: my assessment defensively, the last four or five years, we've 131 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: been we've been renting guys. If you got a bunch 132 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: of guys on one or two year deals and they 133 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: don't know if they're gonna be there, you know, a 134 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: couple of years out or not, how much are they 135 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: going to buy in to the team and what you're doing. 136 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: Are they thinking about, Hey, I'm gonna be on another 137 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: team next year, anyway, let me play for me. And 138 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: so I think when you're trying to build a championship team, 139 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: you got to have everybody bought it. I mean, and 140 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: I'm not saying, you know, we had one year, we 141 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: got Quinn, we got Crawford, we got these guys. Next 142 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: year you got done Terius Poe and you got Griffin 143 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,679 Speaker 1: and you got Michael Bennett they're going that you're bringing 144 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: all the smith good guy hadn't been there, been out 145 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: of the league four years. You know, where's your leadership 146 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: going to come from if you're running guys in and 147 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: out like a train, you know. So I think first 148 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: of all, you got assemble a group and at least 149 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: keep them together three or four years so those guys 150 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: can learn to play together. And so I think that's 151 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: one of the issues they have not played together that 152 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: you bring in a new coach, you know, you go 153 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 1: from marion Nelli and his scheme to something totally different 154 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: and Nolan his scheme. Then you start losing good players 155 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: like Byron Jones, you know, and you start losing good players. 156 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: So when I say all of the above, I factor 157 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: all those things can contribute to you not being a 158 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 1: consistent defense and then you throw injuries in there, and 159 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: that makes it even worse. Yeah, Will, what do you 160 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 1: what is your take on what's wrong here on the 161 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball. Well, I think at the 162 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: beginning of the season, in the way that I looked 163 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: at it a lot, where when you see people come 164 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: into the NFL, there are some that have a difficult 165 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 1: time right away because what they're doing is not reacting 166 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: like an athletes. They're doing a little reacting, but they're 167 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: also doing a lot of thinking. And I think because 168 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: of the fact that you have a new defensive coordinator, 169 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: new head coach, but a new defensive coordinator and a 170 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: new scheme that with guys trying to figure out what 171 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 1: they're doing, that that takes away from some of their ferocity, 172 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,719 Speaker 1: some of their aggressiveness, and things like that. I think 173 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: can happen the fact that you're going through all of 174 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: these meetings and trying to learn everything via a zoom 175 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: instead of doing it actually on the field and doing 176 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,599 Speaker 1: it actively, that that does make a difference. But I 177 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: do think that it gets to a point in the 178 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: season where you go, Okay, let's now see some of 179 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: that toughness, and at times we've seen it, and at 180 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: times it just seems to go away. I don't know 181 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 1: the answer to that. I think that just in lies 182 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: somewhere in the locker room with the guys that are 183 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: in there. But I do think that that is a 184 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: huge role as to what we have had here, just 185 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 1: because it being you know, twenty twenty and all the 186 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: things that go along with it, and like Larry said, 187 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,959 Speaker 1: it's a bunch of things altogether. I also have had 188 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: questions over the last couple of years with some of 189 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: the guys honestly that are there on you know, where 190 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: exactly is their determination to be the best version of themselves? 191 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 1: Is it by being a Dallas cowboy or is it 192 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,679 Speaker 1: by what you actually put on tape. That's two very 193 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: separate things, and I those are the questions I have 194 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: for that defense. Ye this YO show, Larry, were just 195 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:47,199 Speaker 1: here to participate. People assume that because you have a 196 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: guy on the team that he can do what you want. 197 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: That's not always the case. I remember talking to Mike 198 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: Zuma when he was deep as a coordinator and Mike 199 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 1: is a guy who likes to play a lot of 200 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: man and they were playing a lot of zone at 201 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 1: that time, and Mike said, Larry, you know, we ain't 202 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: got guys like to run. We need guys corners that 203 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: can run. So they went out and draft the Terence 204 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: New a minute and got some guys that can run. 205 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: So there's always an assumption that the personnel matches what 206 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: a coach wants them to do, and that's not always 207 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 1: the case. So honestly, they're not gonna come out and 208 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: broadcasts and say, hey, we don't. We have guys that 209 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 1: can't do what we want them to do, whether they're 210 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: under contract or not. So sometimes it can't go back 211 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: to personnel. Yep, Nate, I know you, I know you're 212 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: chomping at the bit to talk about this offensive line. 213 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a little bit, because you 214 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: see a little hope, you see a little light at 215 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: the end of the tunnel with this offensive line. But 216 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: right now, let's talk about the defense. What is going 217 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: on with the defense? You know, I laughed when Larry said. 218 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: I laughed because what came to me is I never 219 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: thought about it. Is you never we haphazard like he said, 220 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: guys coming and going, they don't know, and guys are 221 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: playing for themselves. Everson Griffin done, Terry Pot didn't care. 222 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: So Larry's ran on with at and then what Will 223 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: said the toughness. You know, how tough are you? But 224 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: more important, what I've come to realize, and Coach Johnson 225 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: always told me this when he was transitioning from the 226 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 1: old regime to the new regime. He say, first of all, 227 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,439 Speaker 1: name because I would go to Coach Johnson, you know 228 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: a lot of times they say, coach man, what are 229 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: you seeing? What are you looking for? He said, I 230 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: don't have players. If I had players, and I could 231 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: build something around these players, But now since I don't 232 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: have the players, I'm gonna go get players to fit 233 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,599 Speaker 1: my system. Well, we were told that our evens the 234 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: coordinators were smart enough to fit our players to the 235 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 1: system hasn't worked. So you have a little bit of 236 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: everything stirring in this spot. But first of all, you 237 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 1: better get some players. We don't have any on defense. 238 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's take our first break. When we come back, 239 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: we'll talk a little Cowboys forty nine ers, and then 240 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: we'll talk about the Cowboys have a chance. They still 241 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: have a chance to make the playoffs. We will talk 242 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 1: about what that percentage of that chance is. And I 243 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: want to get y'all's feedback on the state of the 244 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,719 Speaker 1: NFC East. How do you rank these teams going down 245 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 1: the final stretch. Here we'll talk about all that and 246 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: more when we come back. You are listening to Cowboys 247 00:13:14,360 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: Cross Talk on the Dallas Cowboys Radio Network w to 248 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: s WBC Mortgages Cowboys Cross Talk broadcasting live from Dallas 249 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: Cowboys World Headquarters at the Star in Frisco. Come back 250 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: to the show. Shannon Groves here in studio alongside my 251 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: partner Nate Newton, live from one oh five three the 252 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: Fans studios, Will Chambers and live from his home with 253 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 1: the beautiful backdrop in the corner. Larry Brown, we are 254 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 1: back to the show. He said, not much has changed, 255 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: but clearly the office is changing. Yeah, yeah, will question 256 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: for you. Yes, sir, I've always had a victory on Sunday. 257 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 1: They did, right, Okay, I just want to make sure 258 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 1: I didn't imagine that they had a victory on Sunday. 259 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 1: I think there were some positive things that came out 260 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: of the game. You know, offense was able to move 261 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: the ball, defense bent but didn't really break. Do you 262 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: think I should be excited about these positive things or 263 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: is this just an example of two really bad football 264 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: teams and the better of the bad one. Well, they 265 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: answer your question is that it's definitely the latter part 266 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 1: of that I could say, but it just I guess 267 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 1: it depends on what side you sit on whether and 268 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: there are diehard Cowboys fans that want the team to 269 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 1: actually lose, to play well and to lose, and there 270 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: are diehard Cowboys fans that want to win. So it 271 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 1: just depends, I guess on what side of the fence 272 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: you're on with that. I personally sit on one where 273 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: I feel like you there's no way for you to 274 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 1: develop and to have a winning culture by losing games. 275 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: So I don't know where you go with the arrest 276 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: of that. I think that it is positive in each 277 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: step with what you see. Look, Cincinnati's destined to lose 278 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: that game because that's what that franchise does there. You 279 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: know they're gonna play when they're a bad team. If 280 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: they have another bad matchup, it's like a flip of 281 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: a coin. Whereas the Cowboys, I think that there is 282 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 1: definitely more of a feeling of more organizational, a better 283 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: culture with the Cowboys than you do with the Bengals. 284 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: So to me, I just thought I was going to 285 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: see exactly what I saw now with San Francisco, it's 286 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: a little bit different this week. I think the Cowboys 287 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 1: having Andy Dalton, the guy that has taken a team 288 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 1: to the playoffs so many times that he did in Cincinnati, 289 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 1: as the perfect person that can keep you know, a 290 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 1: ship you know, afloat or going, you know to wherever 291 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: it kind of needs to go in the matter of 292 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: time in which he's there, which is why he was 293 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: brought in. And this team, you know, as crazy as 294 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 1: it is, has a chance. You win the final three games, 295 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: you've got a really good shot of actually winning the 296 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:02,360 Speaker 1: division and getting into the playoffs. I think that if 297 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: you want that, then yeah, you can be hopeful because 298 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: of the fact that you were able to do some 299 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: things very well and that your defense didn't get gassed. 300 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: You know, the Bengals offensive line is terrible, but it 301 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 1: doesn't mean that they don't have skill guys that can 302 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: break off big plays. And we saw bad teams doing 303 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: that against the Cowboys all year long, so it was possible. 304 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, did they beat up on a lesser opponent, absolutely, 305 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: but they didn't give up all those huge plays outside 306 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: the one obviously that it really showed you that, okay, 307 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: they're moving in the right direction, and that to me 308 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: is the most important thing. If you lose, you're not 309 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 1: moving in the right direction. That doesn't mean you're going 310 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 1: to win next year. You don't have a bunch of 311 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: guys in a locker room that feel good about where 312 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: you're at as a team. If you lose to Cincinnati, 313 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,199 Speaker 1: if you lose to teams you know within your own division, 314 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: like the Giants or the Eagles coming up. So I 315 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: think that there certainly are positives and so if I'm 316 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 1: on the side that feels good about wins, then I 317 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: do have some optimism. Before I moved to Larry and 318 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: then to Nate, I'm glad you said that. I'm glad 319 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: you said that you don't think you can build a 320 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: winning culture by tanking and losing games, because what would 321 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 1: you say? The split is up at the fan with 322 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: with all the hosts, what what what percentage do you 323 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 1: think are team tank versus team went out, the majority 324 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 1: team tank, the majority team went out or is it 325 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: about split? That's a great question, Shannon Um. I would 326 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: think that it's pretty split, okay, because you know what 327 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 1: the people that are team tank are. You know, they're 328 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 1: open with it. And it should be noted that the 329 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 1: people that are team tank, they understand what tanking is. 330 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: It's not guys going out there throwing games, because that's 331 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 1: not what it is, right, It's organic. Those guys in 332 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: the locker room are gonna go out there and they're 333 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: gonna try to win, but they believe by doing it. 334 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 1: You know, organically, you try hard, you come up short, 335 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 1: You play some other guys that are younger or whatever, 336 00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: just to see what they have and if you lose, 337 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: you know, so what So I do believe that it's 338 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: probably split. Okay, So, Larry, we talk about this all 339 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: the time on our show, Nate Jesse Holly. Always you 340 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: will never hear a player say lose the games because 341 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: you get a better draft pick and you get a 342 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: head start on the next season. Talk about what will 343 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 1: just said Larry. As far as building a culture and 344 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: a winning attitude and learning to win, you know, we 345 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 1: talk about all the time, Nate. You were on some 346 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: bad teams before you asking that, asking where Larry was 347 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: picked that as you would pick that in the draft 348 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: number number three, twenty okay, twelve round Okay, So I 349 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: asked him about tanking, Okay, but what about taking so 350 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: h let me say this, I think there has to 351 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: be a bigger picture. And uh I would agree with 352 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 1: Stephen ah and this. I love the Cowboys, but a 353 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: lot of our fans are disillusion It comes down to 354 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: what is your goal. We have not been back to 355 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: a conference champion ship game in almost thirty years. Okay, 356 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: at the end of the day. The last several years, 357 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 1: we beat bad teams, we lose the good teams. If 358 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: you're a good football team, you're gonna beat good teams. 359 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: And I think there's a realist and oh, cowboys, pretty good. 360 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: You're supposed to beat Cincinnati? Are we talking about beating Cincinnati? 361 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: Are you serious? I mean, come on, so, Joe, you're 362 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,479 Speaker 1: supposed to beat Cincinnati. Okay, these teams, but if you're 363 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: gonna be a good football team, you're gonna be a contender. 364 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: Then that's the standard that you have to measure everything by. 365 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 1: Now we're just trying to get to the playoffs and 366 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: get eliminated the first round and be a seven to 367 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 1: ninet team, and we're happy we made it there. That's 368 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 1: the new standard. Then everybody should clap and be happy 369 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: with that. But that's not me. I think Nate knows this. 370 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: We wanted to We wanted to win championships. I remember 371 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: my wife asked me this many years ago. She's like, 372 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: do you think you guys are gonna you're gonna go 373 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: to playoffs? Like playoffs? We're going to sure, you're talking 374 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: about you know we're gonna be in that championship. What 375 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: are you talking about. I'm not joking. I'm not saying 376 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: that arrogantly because that was the standard that was established. 377 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 1: Now is if we beat bad teams, hey we look 378 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: pretty good. We got team chemistry. No, it's not. If 379 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: your goal is to win championships and to contend to 380 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: be what New England was now, I'm not saying every 381 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: year to be with you know, Kansas City is now 382 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 1: to be right there, then you have to be a 383 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: good football team. To be a good football team, you 384 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 1: got to be realistic about what you have what you 385 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: don't have. Jimmy Johnson realized that we need a pass rusher, 386 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: and he went and got Charles Hayley. During the season. 387 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: He could have said there and said, hey, we got 388 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,439 Speaker 1: some guys, we'll be fine. He said, no, we need 389 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: another piece. Okay, we need a tight end. He went 390 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 1: and got Jay Novicheck. You know, so you have to 391 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 1: add and be honest about where you are. If the 392 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: goal is to be a legitimate contender, if it's just 393 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: to make the playoffs, losing the first round, to be 394 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: proud to go seventy nine, you know, if that's the standard, 395 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 1: and I think the standards have I've been a lord. Okay, 396 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: so I don't believe in taking And I think the 397 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: biggest thing how you get guys to play, put somebody 398 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: behind them that can take their spot. I'll give you 399 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: a Nate Newton quick story. One time we're in practice 400 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: doing insight run, and every now and then they bring 401 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: a little cornerback down there to being run support because 402 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 1: they got a bunch of tight ends. And I remember 403 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 1: Nate was getting up slow, you know, he was banged up, 404 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: trying to fight through it, and like like all the 405 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 1: great players have. And I say, dude, why don't you 406 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: just get somebody else a chance? Hell, you know you 407 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 1: banged up? He said, have you seen Larry Allen? So y? 408 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: James Washington said, hey, he was banged up. Have you 409 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: seen Darren Woodson. I'm not giving him none of my reps, 410 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: you know. So when you got guys behind you that 411 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: can legitimately play, guess what. Yeah, I gotta ask that 412 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 1: question whether or not a guy is motivated or not. 413 00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 1: And I'm just a big believer. U. Really great players 414 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: are waiting for their opportunity. They don't want a starter 415 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: to get hurt, They don't want anything to happen but hey, 416 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: that's how Tony Romo got started, and that's how a 417 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 1: lot of guys when they got their opportunity, they ran 418 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: with it. That's how I got started. So I don't 419 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: believe that you can just have a bunch of guys 420 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: backing up who can't play, who's not motivated. Then if 421 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 1: that's the case, you've created the wrong culture from the beginning. 422 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: You should not want to leave that field because you 423 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,360 Speaker 1: know the guy behind you. And no disrespect to Zeke. Hey, 424 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 1: Tony Pom comes in running that football. Hey, no disrespect 425 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: to hell the guys Ceedee Lamb comes in as a 426 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,359 Speaker 1: rookie catching them ball. So hey, when you have that, 427 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: it can help change the culture. You know what, I 428 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 1: don't believe in taking I believe you get it done. 429 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: I want to ask you, Nate and Larry on this too, 430 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: because you played on teams when you have guys on 431 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 1: there that absolutely hate losing, that they there's nothing more 432 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: that they hate than losing. And there is enough talent 433 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: on this team as it is constructed right now to 434 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: win offensively and if you have correct but and there, 435 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: but there are guys defensively that are going to be 436 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: on the team next year, they're not moving all of 437 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 1: them out. And so if you're playing these last three games, 438 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,679 Speaker 1: in order for you to go from say Larry as 439 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: seven and nineteen, you got to have those guys that 440 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: hate to lose. Can those guys be that the last 441 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: three games and to do enough to get you to win? 442 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,919 Speaker 1: Those are the teams like the Seattle Seahawks that went 443 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 1: seven and nine and then went to a super Bowl, 444 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 1: like the Carolina Panthers that went seven and nine that 445 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 1: went to a super Bowl. Because if you don't have 446 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 1: those guys, and that's what I think, that what I'm 447 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: asking you is that you had those players. And that's 448 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: what the Cowboys hope to have right now in that 449 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: locker room. And more importantly, coach Johnson created a a 450 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 1: level of competition where there's consequences for not doing your job. 451 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: I understand, guy's got these contracts now, but hey, you 452 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: cannot let a guy who's not getting it done hold 453 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: you hostage if you're not will to make a change 454 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: or set a guy down. And I give the great program. 455 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: I'll give Seattle example, they gave Backflint a lot of money. 456 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 1: Russell Woodson came in, was getting it done. They didn't 457 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: care about the fifteen million they gave him. He's the guy. 458 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: And guess what, they've been in a few Super Bowls 459 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: because of it. So there has to be accountability, period, 460 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 1: across the board. If Larry Brown's not getting it done, 461 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: and let me tell this, and Nate knows this, I 462 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: didn't want to be in the guy in my huddle 463 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: not getting my job done and have to look at 464 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: Charles Haley and Darren Woodson and Leon Lett and all 465 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: these other guys. You don't want to be that guy. 466 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: So you're gonna have a sense of pride about yourself 467 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: and what you're gonna do. Or look at Dion, you know, hey, 468 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 1: I remember a guy caught Da Paul or d I 469 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: want time? Was, hey, you need me to cover? He say, 470 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: don't worry about the next way. I thought I gonna 471 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: pick it off and take you to the house. He 472 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 1: meant it, and that's exactly what he did. But we 473 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,120 Speaker 1: could have those conversations. It was honest, Nate, those guys 474 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: and say LB, let's go make a play. You know. 475 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 1: So it was everybody. And if you don't create the 476 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: culture of accountability, there's no way you're gonna be a 477 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 1: great football team and they got accountable. Nate, I know 478 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 1: you have a lot to say. I don't know everything 479 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: needed to be said. That's why I asked you to 480 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 1: ask Larry. First. We have to take a break, but 481 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,679 Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about building that culture 482 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: because you were on a bad football team. Yeah, and 483 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: Lara was did you get a bad year with a slary? 484 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:24,679 Speaker 1: You you a successful about Tell Michael I hadn't won 485 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl in a while before I got there 486 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 1: to hit one wants us all, Yes, sir, they built 487 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 1: office around me. There, let's let's take let's let's take 488 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: our second break. When we come back. I want to 489 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: get Nate stalled on building culture and building and winning 490 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: team and will eventually get to Cowboys forty nine ers. 491 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: But first we'll take a break.

But before you asked Larry the question, 512 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: you were on a bad football team when you got here, 513 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: two bad football teams. This is the same football team, 514 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 1: but it was two years. How did that culture we're 515 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: talking about culture, how did that culture change from bad 516 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: to good? And as it was happening, did you realize 517 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 1: what was going on or was it just like a 518 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: light switch? You were like, oh, we're good. No, it 519 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: was a two or three year period or two year period. 520 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: But I want to say, Larry, do you remember the 521 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 1: story you once told me about coach John Say, you 522 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: know you're getting ready to go against one of the 523 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 1: sharp brothers at Green Bay. Tell us story, tell us shot. 524 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: We're in the final preseason game. We got to play 525 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 1: the Oilers in a running shoot offense with the hey 526 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: with Jeffreies, Ernest Gibbons, Warren moans the quarterback and the 527 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: last preseason game. And he walked by my locker and 528 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: he caught himself, stopped and walked back. He says, Hey, 529 00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make a decision on you after this game. 530 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 1: And I said, okay. I went out to play like 531 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: I was scared, and I played. I played my party, 532 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 1: my best game of the preseason because I understood what 533 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: was on the line. And you know, those are the 534 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 1: those are the types of things you want to respond. 535 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: You know, you're a pro, this is your dream. Don't 536 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: do your job, don't do what you're good at, you know. 537 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: And uh So I went out and I played well. 538 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: But that's the type of accountability, that's the type of pressure. 539 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: And I think he wanted to see how I will respond. 540 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: How many games did you start that year? And I 541 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: started the second game of my rookie season. So from there, 542 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: so I started fifteen games as a rookie. So what 543 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: I'm trying to say is this right here, you ask 544 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 1: how you build culture. First of all, you gotta get dogs. 545 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 1: You gotta get players that want to be there and 546 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,800 Speaker 1: have a sense of pride in what they're doing. And 547 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 1: I give you, I give you a story. People like 548 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 1: when Nate. We always heard about how fat you was 549 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 1: doing all season, how you go to the fat farm, 550 00:34:58,400 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 1: and how you do this, and how to and how 551 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,879 Speaker 1: you do that. But I never lined up and lost 552 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 1: many battles because it was a certain thing about once men, 553 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: you lined up nose and nose, you had to prove 554 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: that you was better. That's whether I was in shape 555 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 1: out of shape, you had to prove that you was better. 556 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: And I wasn't gonna let you embarrass me in front 557 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 1: of my first of all, myself, my teammates and family. Well, 558 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: we don't have a bunch of guys like that. Now, 559 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,800 Speaker 1: He'll tell you that, But they don't have and more important, 560 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,439 Speaker 1: the coaches. I haven't had a chance to bring those 561 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 1: type of guys in because what is here, it's not 562 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: built that way. You have maybe one or two guys 563 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: that are built that way that will accept that challenge 564 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 1: and won't go to the media. Hey man, guess my 565 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: coach's text to me. Oh man, he gonna gonna he 566 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: gonna look at me this week. He's looking at you 567 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: every week. It was never a time that Coach Johnson 568 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: would pass us in the hall. He didn't have to 569 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 1: say a word. His look, the way he looked at 570 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,360 Speaker 1: you told you how you, how he think you played. 571 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: He didn't have to sell a word. And he always 572 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:08,399 Speaker 1: had somebody, especially when you had a bad game. Come 573 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 1: Monday morning, Tuesday morning, he always has somebody sitting in 574 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 1: your locker, working out in your locker. Hey man, what 575 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: you're doing. I was with the washing red skin last week. 576 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:21,879 Speaker 1: I'm just here working out for the Cowboys. Gotta look 577 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 1: like you, built like you, so you know what the 578 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,879 Speaker 1: question is. Sitting in your locker, sitting in your locker, 579 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: so you would never relax. And yesterday's society that says that, hey, 580 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: I got a contract that says I'm gonna be here 581 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: three or four years. That is fine. But everybody don't 582 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 1: have that contract, and you have to be sure the 583 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 1: players that you're paying is the right guys. That's right. 584 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 1: Can I tell you about nick news story. I used 585 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: to hate to see Nate go to the flatform. Let 586 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: me tell you why before went to the flat farm, 587 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 1: he gets to that second little about lives. When he 588 00:36:54,000 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: came back ready to go, he was out there on corners, Nate, 589 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 1: because he was in shape. He was I'm not drop around. 590 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 1: He's out there on the corners. When he got back 591 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 1: from the fat farm. Why the fat farm? You'll get 592 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 1: to the Nate telling me I hate to see on me. 593 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 1: Tell everybody, tell everybody what the fat farm is? And 594 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: how much weight you lost at the fat farm? Isn't married? 595 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 1: I went three years, I think, And what is it? Okay? 596 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,880 Speaker 1: It's a man named Mike Spots who I found out 597 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:30,239 Speaker 1: about some other guys to another football player. He would 598 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 1: help these guys lose weight quickly. You know, you would eat, 599 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 1: but you would eat nothing but just you would be 600 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 1: a vegetarian while you out there. So but anyway, you 601 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,920 Speaker 1: know one year coach Johnson looking like, oh man, I 602 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:44,560 Speaker 1: don't think he's gonna make it. You just you just 603 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 1: you just you're out of shape, you fat.

When I 618 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: called the gay back from the platform and I was like, 619 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: n out the older Okay, yeah it was It's just 620 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: But the thing about it is, Coach Johnson always looked 621 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 1: at were you competitive when you lined up? Were you 622 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 1: ready to go? On Sundays? And I remember one time 623 00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: I had a carrect man bumped the head, had a 624 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: big not on it early in the week, and and 625 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 1: to the point where even the players just like that 626 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: and I'm and I'm and Troy never really talked to you. 627 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 1: He just nodded his head and speak to you depending 628 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 1: on who you are. And uh, towards the end of 629 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 1: the week, you know, I'm the sweating going down. I'm 630 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: about the kind of moving around practicing a little bit. 631 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,839 Speaker 1: Troy looked at me. What's up, Troy? I just want 632 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 1: to know if you're gonna play this week for you 633 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: try I'm gonna reading man uh will for you three 634 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: games left in the season. I think I read a 635 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: couple of different places that the probability of the Cowboys 636 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 1: making the playoffs is around one percent. Obviously they have 637 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 1: to win out for that to even be a possibility. 638 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: What are you looking for in this team these last 639 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: three weeks going down the stretch? Are you just looking 640 00:39:56,239 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 1: for improvement or are you looking What are you looking 641 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 1: at when you look at this team? Because I'm not 642 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 1: sure and I'm trying to. Every week I come in 643 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 1: here and I ask questions because I want to cling 644 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,439 Speaker 1: onto some hope. And every week I get a little 645 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: bit and in some weeks I get a little more. 646 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 1: In some weeks I get reset way back to where 647 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 1: I was. So I'm just wondering this week, what are 648 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 1: you looking for down the stretch? Some fight playing and simple? 649 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 1: You know, what do you want? No matter what you 650 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,400 Speaker 1: do as an NFL player? And you know this is 651 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,319 Speaker 1: just some talking head yapping, but Nate and Larry, I'll 652 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,360 Speaker 1: say it. Whatever you do out there, you're putting on film, 653 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,880 Speaker 1: whether you're gonna be a cowboy next year or you're 654 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: gonna be a Viking or a Bengal or wherever you go. 655 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,759 Speaker 1: So what kind of player or how do you want 656 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: to finish the Yeah, there it's at two percent. But 657 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 1: you know, I guess Washington has to go. Let me 658 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: look here. If they go two and one, that's it. 659 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 1: But Washington has Seattle, Carolina and Philadelphia. That's a tough 660 00:40:56,280 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 1: two on one right there for Washington. So it's out 661 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:02,840 Speaker 1: there in front of you. Well, what I want to 662 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,359 Speaker 1: see from these guys is really some pride, and at 663 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 1: times we've seen it. At times we have it. Where 664 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: I'm wondering. You know, like I said before, I'll give 665 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 1: a lot of leeway because I can empathize with trying 666 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,920 Speaker 1: to do something while thinking your way through it. The 667 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: better you know something, the easier it is for you 668 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: to do because you don't have to think your way 669 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 1: through it, and especially when you're an athlete. And I 670 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 1: know that that is a lot about what has gone 671 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 1: into this team this year and with Mike Nolan and 672 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: the scheme and all of that, and it's different, and 673 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: I get it, but there's still a point where you 674 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 1: got a fight, and it's been the fight against the 675 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:45,799 Speaker 1: running game that has lacked and has been quite honestly embarrassing. 676 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 1: You know, through twelve games, there hasn't been a team 677 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:50,919 Speaker 1: in NFL history that have given up as many yards 678 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,360 Speaker 1: as the Cowboys this year has, or as many per attempt. 679 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 1: It's just that plane and simple, that bad. And so 680 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 1: what I want to see out of this team is, 681 00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 1: you know, the things that you do get out of 682 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 1: a number of guys, but can those guys lead the 683 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 1: other ones to show that you do have the culture 684 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 1: that will eventually lead to a championship, Because if you 685 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: don't and you go oh in three or one in two, 686 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 1: congratulations on your draft pick, you ain't going anywhere next 687 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,759 Speaker 1: year or the year after likely and you can get 688 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: as many picks as you want. You know, the last 689 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 1: three years, the New England Patriots have twenty nine draft 690 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: picks that they've drafted. That's a team right now that 691 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,360 Speaker 1: doesn't have very very many good players on it. The 692 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars, they've drafted twenty six players in the last 693 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 1: three years. Not a lot of good players on their 694 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: Cincinnati twenty nine. They probably have more talent than the 695 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 1: other two, not a whole lot. That's a lot of 696 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:50,120 Speaker 1: draft picks and not a lot of talented players. If 697 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 1: you want to be a good football team going into 698 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 1: next year, you better be able to show it in 699 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 1: these last three games with a lot of fight because 700 00:42:58,040 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 1: a lot of those guys are probably going to be 701 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 1: on this team. And if they don't have the fight, 702 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 1: then you don't have it. You don't have a winning culture, 703 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,920 Speaker 1: and you look at the same garbage next year. We 704 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 1: hear you, hear a lot about you. Hear the words 705 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 1: thrown around a lot, fight, pride, you know, not playing 706 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 1: with heart, things like that, Larry Nate. When we come 707 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 1: back from break, we're eventually going to talk about Cowboys 708 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 1: forty nine ers. We might not talk about the game 709 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 1: on Sunday, but we're gonna talk about Cowboys forty nine ers, 710 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 1: maybe back when the rivalry was huge when you guys played. 711 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 1: But I want to those words that you were saying, 712 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 1: will that. I want to get the opinion because if 713 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 1: you play in the NFL, I would like to think, 714 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:38,920 Speaker 1: if you have made it that far, you have pride, 715 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 1: you have fight, you have all these things. So I 716 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 1: want to get y'all's take on you know, what's your 717 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 1: interpretation of that when you see guys on the field, 718 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: what what what does it mean when they don't play 719 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 1: with fight? Let's get into that. Let's talk a little 720 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: Cowboys forty nine ers.

So why why do you 733 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:43,279 Speaker 1: hear these words thrown around like NFL players don't have 734 00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 1: pride and they're not playing with pride and they're not 735 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 1: playing with fight. Why do you hear that so much 736 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,040 Speaker 1: when a team is bad? Well, I think when we 737 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:52,840 Speaker 1: started the conversation, I said all of the above. You 738 00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: do need fight, you do need pride, but you also 739 00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:58,719 Speaker 1: need to talf Okay, so you know, at the end 740 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 1: of the day, you know you have the ability to 741 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:05,040 Speaker 1: do it. And I have a different ideology about building 742 00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 1: the team. I want to win, but I also got 743 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 1: to find out what we need to win. There's a 744 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,680 Speaker 1: reason why bad teams are bad. There's a reason why 745 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,400 Speaker 1: good teams are good. So we have not been the 746 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:17,440 Speaker 1: type of team we wanted to be this year in 747 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 1: a few previous years. But you know, we have to 748 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:21,680 Speaker 1: answer those questions. Do we need a d linement, do 749 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 1: we need a safety? What is it that we need 750 00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:27,120 Speaker 1: in addition to pride and fight? I agree with that 751 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 1: you need all that. Do we have the talent, do 752 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:32,239 Speaker 1: we have the skill level to get us there, and 753 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: I think those are bigger questions. It's not just about 754 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,600 Speaker 1: winning a game. To me, my goal as a fan 755 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,000 Speaker 1: and I bleed blue, is how do we get back 756 00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 1: to being a legitimate contender every year and that encompass 757 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,360 Speaker 1: a bigger picture other than just one game or one player. 758 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 1: How do we do we need personnel? Why? How do 759 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 1: we get back to that? How do we get back? 760 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 1: How do we get back to that? Natelayers you're here, 761 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,960 Speaker 1: Me said at the end of the day, always you 762 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:05,719 Speaker 1: need players, You need players, and Will men and him 763 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 1: talked about it off. Ever, Men Men, Shanna, you gonna 764 00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: have to go out and get some players. If you 765 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 1: don't go out and get some players, you're gonna be 766 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 1: in the same boat you are again. And you can't 767 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:29,000 Speaker 1: get rid of everybody. So you either go out and 768 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,000 Speaker 1: you find the best possible pick. And I ain't saying 769 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:36,000 Speaker 1: over pick, you know, but everybody's a move down, moved down, 770 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:39,840 Speaker 1: moved down. Well, if you stay where you at and 771 00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:42,840 Speaker 1: get the best possible defensive player where you're at, unless 772 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:44,960 Speaker 1: he don't, let's ee, five or six players down on 773 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 1: your board, and then you have to move down but 774 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:50,959 Speaker 1: you would. You're drafted the best in the first round, 775 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 1: a shot at the best in the first round, a 776 00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,040 Speaker 1: shot at the best in the second round, third, on, 777 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,880 Speaker 1: on and on. Go find the best defensive players you 778 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 1: can play, I mean confined, and if you don't, okay, 779 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:05,920 Speaker 1: you gave it a great shot. Because our only issue 780 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:11,279 Speaker 1: is defense now around here. For the last six years, 781 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,800 Speaker 1: I've been like, okay, y'all, we're don't talking about defense. 782 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,239 Speaker 1: Six months, it's two weeks before the draft, and all 783 00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:21,160 Speaker 1: of a sudden, everybody board get filled up with offensive players, 784 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 1: including the national guys. Let's see what happened this year. 785 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:26,840 Speaker 1: Let's see what happened this year. Well, let me let 786 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,440 Speaker 1: me ask you guys something. What do you think the 787 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 1: difference is. Let's say that Dak doesn't get hurt. What 788 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,760 Speaker 1: is the difference between the season or that, I should 789 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:39,840 Speaker 1: say not the season. What's the difference between the teams, 790 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:44,560 Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks and the Dallas Cowboys in the beginning 791 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 1: of the season. What was the difference between them? I 792 00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 1: would say to you, not a whole lot. Now, Russell 793 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 1: Wilson is what he is, right, I don't I think 794 00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 1: that I personally and I know that I may be 795 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,719 Speaker 1: in the minority opinion of thinking that Dak actually is 796 00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:01,560 Speaker 1: an elite quarterback, but I understand that a lot of 797 00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 1: people do not. He's not Russell Wilson, despite my feelings 798 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:07,120 Speaker 1: on that. But when you looked at the issues that 799 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: both teams had, they were really similar, right, And what 800 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 1: changed for the Seahawks mental, well, they made a trade 801 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 1: for Carlos du Mental. They believe they can win. They 802 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:26,880 Speaker 1: had enough talent that was pushed to the edge to 803 00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:30,879 Speaker 1: win and it win them defensively. Well, they also made 804 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:33,920 Speaker 1: a big move in going out to get Carlos Dunlap 805 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:36,759 Speaker 1: and traded some picks away to do that. I would 806 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,520 Speaker 1: agree with you that, well, one, they didn't have to 807 00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:41,440 Speaker 1: go through the changes that the Cowboys did in this 808 00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:45,040 Speaker 1: offseason and have to deal with, you know what they 809 00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:46,600 Speaker 1: have because of the fact that we've been in the 810 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:48,600 Speaker 1: pandemic and all that, so things are different. I'm just 811 00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:52,279 Speaker 1: saying from a team standpoint and a talent standpoint, there 812 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:54,920 Speaker 1: was a lot of similarities for the team. And what 813 00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:58,400 Speaker 1: really seemed to change everything for Seattle I think that 814 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 1: they had the same belief that they had all year. 815 00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:03,520 Speaker 1: You did have Jamal Adams out for a little while, 816 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 1: but they bring in Carlos Dunlap. Boy, the belief may 817 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 1: have changed a whole lot by getting what you guys 818 00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 1: are talking about. Yeah, a good place about. But you said, 819 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,239 Speaker 1: you said at the beginning of the year, what was 820 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 1: the difference. The difference was this the belief, the belief 821 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 1: that they could do it and been in and they 822 00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:26,320 Speaker 1: have done it. The belief. And let me say this, 823 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 1: I'm going to disagree with you here where I think 824 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have had more talent when when when Seattle 825 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:34,239 Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl, they didn't draft marsh in 826 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,239 Speaker 1: the first round. They traded for him and got him 827 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 1: for Buffalo. Tyler Lockett was not a first round draft pick. 828 00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,279 Speaker 1: Dun Baldwin was not a first round draft pick. So 829 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: you can arguably say that the Cowboy you know, Den 830 00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:46,320 Speaker 1: Bryant was the first round draft thing. Jason Witten was 831 00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:48,480 Speaker 1: a Hall of Fame site is you can truly say 832 00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:51,239 Speaker 1: that they have more talent they had we had the 833 00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,360 Speaker 1: best offensive line in football. No one's ever said Seattle 834 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:57,840 Speaker 1: had the best office line of football. Okay, Cam Chancellor, 835 00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 1: Richard Sherman, these guys were about first round draft pick. 836 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:04,040 Speaker 1: So I think that Seattle has done a better job 837 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:07,840 Speaker 1: developing their players. And then, like they said, they have 838 00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:10,759 Speaker 1: the belief that we can win, and they have been 839 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:14,719 Speaker 1: a contender literally the last several years, so they've been 840 00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 1: in contention where we have it. We're great on papers. 841 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,160 Speaker 1: I think they've done a better job of developing guys. 842 00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:23,440 Speaker 1: Dug ballwin. You're gonna tell me the Cowboys have not 843 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 1: had better receivers than Dug ballwing. Oh, No, absolutely no. 844 00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:29,920 Speaker 1: I think I think we're arguing the same thing. Actually, 845 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:33,440 Speaker 1: what I'm trying to say is what Seattle did is 846 00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:36,520 Speaker 1: they went out and they made the changes and got 847 00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:39,520 Speaker 1: what they needed. They got what you guys are talking about. Yeah, 848 00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 1: you got you gotta have players. I'm not arguing that 849 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:44,600 Speaker 1: with you. You're absolutely right. We could talk about, you know, 850 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:47,800 Speaker 1: the great the desire and the will to win all that, 851 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:49,759 Speaker 1: and that's some fluffy, great stuff. I do want to 852 00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 1: see more fight on that. But Clarry Nay, you're one 853 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:55,480 Speaker 1: hundred percent right. You don't have the horses. You ain't 854 00:53:55,520 --> 00:54:01,239 Speaker 1: doing anything, and every chance that when I talk to 855 00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 1: people that know Coach Carrol personally, it's what Larry talked 856 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:10,520 Speaker 1: about earlier. He was always creating competition. He always is 857 00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:14,120 Speaker 1: created you know him and the coach at New England. 858 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,040 Speaker 1: Why every other year so you hit him getting fined 859 00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:21,640 Speaker 1: and losing draft picks for over practicing, doing things that 860 00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:24,560 Speaker 1: ain't supposed to be done, like hitting in practice. You 861 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:27,479 Speaker 1: know me, I've been telling my guys here on hanging 862 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:30,840 Speaker 1: with the boys. I don't care what the CBA says 863 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:33,880 Speaker 1: next year. I don't care what pandemic is here. I 864 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 1: know if Jimmy Johnson were here, I know where me 865 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 1: and Larry Brown would be during the offseason, would be 866 00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:43,319 Speaker 1: over there working out, getting ready. You got a bunch 867 00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 1: of dudes that got to be in this house, in 868 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 1: the Cowboys House, under the tutelage of of your coaches 869 00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:56,440 Speaker 1: and your training staff. They have to be here. You 870 00:54:56,960 --> 00:55:00,360 Speaker 1: ain't zooming nothing. We ain't brought you are either in 871 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:04,520 Speaker 1: the house. I'm gonna x you out, that's right. I 872 00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 1: want to run straight through the podcast window right now, Nate, 873 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:13,040 Speaker 1: you need to give every speech to the next season. 874 00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:17,080 Speaker 1: I'm just telling you. Jimmy told us after the season 875 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:20,120 Speaker 1: one year. Well, I don't think Larry's day yet. He 876 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 1: told us everybody's man, I'm gonna do this doing off season. 877 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:24,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this doing off season. Jimmy say, well, 878 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:28,319 Speaker 1: you better check your schedule calls tomorrow morning. I'm telling 879 00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:31,480 Speaker 1: y'all from two weeks from now what we'll be doing. 880 00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:33,720 Speaker 1: You got two weeks to do all that you're talking about, 881 00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:36,640 Speaker 1: because two weeks after that we got your schedule mapped out. 882 00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:39,839 Speaker 1: We got about a minute left. Let's go around the horn. Will, 883 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:44,040 Speaker 1: what's your prediction for the game this weekend? Oh? I 884 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:47,600 Speaker 1: think I think the San Francisco forty nine Ers do 885 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 1: not score well off turnovers. They're last in the league 886 00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:53,239 Speaker 1: and doing that. So even if the Cowboys do, I 887 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:55,240 Speaker 1: don't think they're out of it. I don't like Mullins. 888 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:58,239 Speaker 1: I do like the Cowboys. Actually here in a tight one. 889 00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 1: So I'll say twenty tonight teen go ahead on, Larry. 890 00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:04,799 Speaker 1: I'm gonna roll with the Cowboys. If we can't beat 891 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:07,520 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers with a backup quarterback with a 892 00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:09,640 Speaker 1: bunch of banged up players, we don't deserve to be played. 893 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:11,880 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go with the Cowboys. Twenty eight twenty one. 894 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:16,879 Speaker 1: Nate always infaible, baby, we get this same Vegas style 895 00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 1: half point we got him. Cowboys half a point. I'm 896 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:25,960 Speaker 1: gonna go Cowboys. I'm gonna go Cowboys. I hope they 897 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,960 Speaker 1: don't let me down. Twenty one seventeen. That's what I'm 898 00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,279 Speaker 1: gonna do. Fellas, four more points so that it's not 899 00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:36,399 Speaker 1: gonna be a deepensive game. We'll see, we'll see, Fellas.
