<v Speaker 1>It's good. I feel I feel, I feel okay. It's

0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:13.480
<v Speaker 1>just don't ever go out with young people. That's all

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:16.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to say. You're you're a young guy. But

0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:19.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking like like like twenties twenty year old kids.

0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:23.759
<v Speaker 1>Don't go out with them anymore. Just a bad idea.

0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:26.440
<v Speaker 1>It's not good. It's not good. I'm sorry. I sound

0:01:26.480 --> 0:01:28.920
<v Speaker 1>like garbage today. It's my fault. You sound like you're

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:31.520
<v Speaker 1>working on the flu. I've got a little bit of

0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:36.600
<v Speaker 1>everything going on right now. It's not good. Not good.

0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:39.520
<v Speaker 1>You want to tell us what you did last night? Well,

0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:44.160
<v Speaker 1>to celebrate Christmas, celebrate a tradition with my best friend

0:01:44.160 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>and his family that we play this game like name

0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:51.160
<v Speaker 1>that tune, you know with we pair up and everybody

0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:54.120
<v Speaker 1>has their iPads or their phones, and you know, you play,

0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 1>and you partner up and you just play songs and

0:01:57.680 --> 0:02:00.160
<v Speaker 1>you know. It's something we've done now for four years

0:02:01.000 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 1>and and it involves celebration along with it, as you know,

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:11.240
<v Speaker 1>but you keep score. And so my godson Jack and

0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:15.000
<v Speaker 1>I we uh won for the third straight year, and

0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:19.680
<v Speaker 1>we celebrated our victory out with Jordan Speace brother and all.

0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:21.720
<v Speaker 1>We went out and had a good old time. Steven Speeth,

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:24.320
<v Speaker 1>we had a great time last night. And you probably

0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:26.919
<v Speaker 1>didn't pay for a single drink either, No I did.

0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:31.040
<v Speaker 1>That's what. That's what having a decent job these bums.

0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Steven's a professional basketball player kind of in between, and

0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Jack's doing it working with with Darren Woodson and those

0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:40.440
<v Speaker 1>guys him at Smith Company and all. So yeah, I mean,

0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:43.480
<v Speaker 1>these are young kids, and I made a mistake. I

0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:45.480
<v Speaker 1>really didn't. I shouldn't have gone out with those guys.

0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:47.960
<v Speaker 1>I should have done it. There's things in life you

0:02:48.040 --> 0:02:51.240
<v Speaker 1>just shouldn't do. And I and I I crossed that

0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:53.960
<v Speaker 1>line last night. I think you should have. And I'm

0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:57.160
<v Speaker 1>I know you're struggling this hour, but I think it's

0:02:57.160 --> 0:03:00.400
<v Speaker 1>our busiest days. It is. It's like, you shoot me

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:02.760
<v Speaker 1>a mailbag. I'm like, I'm laying it bead. I'm like, all,

<v Speaker 1>rest and rust. I love that question, and I love

0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:17.520
<v Speaker 1>the I love the okay, how do you play it?

0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:19.880
<v Speaker 1>And how you know? In this coach, I think this

0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:23.520
<v Speaker 1>coach has developed a pattern of that of he's developed

0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:27.479
<v Speaker 1>a pattern of I don't care what you Brian brought

0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:30.000
<v Speaker 1>us think I'm gonna I'm gonna play these guys. I'm

0:04:30.000 --> 0:04:31.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna play him into the third quarter and I'm like,

0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:35.040
<v Speaker 1>and every play I'm holding my breath. You know, I'm

0:04:35.080 --> 0:04:41.400
<v Speaker 1>watching the game and I'm going okay, okay, Zach Martin, Okay,

0:04:41.440 --> 0:04:44.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm just that's that's how it is, because

0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:47.520
<v Speaker 1>he's got like duct tape on that spring at this point. Yeah,

0:04:47.839 --> 0:04:49.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm through this thing for a long time and I'm

0:04:49.720 --> 0:04:53.040
<v Speaker 1>watching Ezeki Ellie just banging to people for four and

0:04:53.160 --> 0:04:56.760
<v Speaker 1>five yards a shot, and every every tackle seems like

0:04:56.800 --> 0:05:00.640
<v Speaker 1>it's a it's a car rack. You know, He's violently

0:05:00.680 --> 0:05:04.720
<v Speaker 1>getting slung around, and I'm just I'm going, oh my gosh,

0:05:04.880 --> 0:05:07.520
<v Speaker 1>just give him a chance. But you know, hey, they

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:11.120
<v Speaker 1>brought up they brought up Jackson. We'll see, you know,

0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:13.320
<v Speaker 1>they brought Rod Smith. I've said before, he was the

0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:17.560
<v Speaker 1>giant killer last year. At this game. It's supposed to snow,

0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:19.720
<v Speaker 1>by the way, Roberts, So when you do your pregame hit,

0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:23.080
<v Speaker 1>make sure you have your overcoat and your stetson, felt

0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:26.320
<v Speaker 1>hat on. It is it really, it's supposed to snow. Yeah,

0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:29.640
<v Speaker 1>So that's what I'm saying. Cold snow not the most

0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:32.800
<v Speaker 1>ideal conditions when you're just trying to get out of there. Yeah, yeah,

0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:35.800
<v Speaker 1>especially get everybody in a big airplane there and then

0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:39.880
<v Speaker 1>get everybody home after that. You know. That's yeah, boy,

0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:42.600
<v Speaker 1>But I just like I said, I so do you buy?

0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:45.040
<v Speaker 1>What do you buy when when Jason Garrett, yeah, buy,

0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:47.479
<v Speaker 1>I buy what he's saying because he's saying like, oh no,

0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:49.839
<v Speaker 1>if you're healthy, we're trying to go win a football game.

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:53.000
<v Speaker 1>That's that's his mentality, and you know, and and good

0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:57.040
<v Speaker 1>for him to have that mentality. The scouts mentality is Okay,

0:05:57.080 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 1>if you hurt these guys, now, I can't can't help you.

0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:04.039
<v Speaker 1>I can't go down to you know, go get you

0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:07.320
<v Speaker 1>another offensive tackle, or go get you another guard or

0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:09.680
<v Speaker 1>you know. I can't do yes, yeah, I can't. I

0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:12.120
<v Speaker 1>can't go down to home depot or you know, our

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:15.359
<v Speaker 1>lows or wherever and grab another guy. But I respect

0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:18.120
<v Speaker 1>the coach for I respect the coach for wanting to

0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:21.800
<v Speaker 1>play that way because, you know me, I'm the oh, hey,

0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:24.960
<v Speaker 1>let's they're all must win. They're all must win. Yeah,

0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:27.240
<v Speaker 1>they're all must win until I know I've got things

0:06:27.320 --> 0:06:29.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of wrapped up, and then I'm trying to I'm

0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.200
<v Speaker 1>trying to get this thing into the more important thing,

0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:37.440
<v Speaker 1>the more important area of this this season, the playoffs. Hello,

<v Speaker 1>I haven't seen him since week two. I mean I

0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:56.560
<v Speaker 1>had to watch him. But you made up for it later,

0:06:56.680 --> 0:07:00.440
<v Speaker 1>I did. I just embarrass myself, Mickey, What do you do? Mickey?

0:07:00.000 --> 0:07:03.200
<v Speaker 1>I didn't get into just a little bit ago like

0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:07.760
<v Speaker 1>an all nighter basically, Mickey, Yeah, fans don't want to

0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:09.960
<v Speaker 1>hear about but I just want to say this was

0:07:10.000 --> 0:07:16.120
<v Speaker 1>alcohol involved, Mickey, and I want to ask the next question. Look,

0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:18.160
<v Speaker 1>look I didn't I didn't. Yeah, I didn't. I made

0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:21.400
<v Speaker 1>it home. That's a that's a positive. Safely safely, yes,

0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:23.360
<v Speaker 1>make sure if you're can do both, make sure you

0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:25.680
<v Speaker 1>get home safely. Just like my wedding, which is the

0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 1>only time I've really seen you. Just you know, it

0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:34.640
<v Speaker 1>was close last night, Rob, Christmas night. What's open? I'll

0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:37.080
<v Speaker 1>tell you what, Mickey, you would be surprised the establishments

0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:41.360
<v Speaker 1>that are opening. Yes, now, not enough food stops are open.

0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:43.520
<v Speaker 1>You know when you're going home. But I'm trying to

0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:47.040
<v Speaker 1>think if I've ever liked done anything Christmas night other

0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 1>than really, I don't think. See that's my problem I'm

0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:55.480
<v Speaker 1>like a one once or twice a year guy. That's

0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. And that's only seen you a couple

0:07:57.440 --> 0:08:00.000
<v Speaker 1>of times. Your wedding was incredible. Again here we are

0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.720
<v Speaker 1>talking cowboys, but talking wedding. Yes, fine, but yeah the

0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:05.200
<v Speaker 1>playoffs sewn up there in Yeah, but your wedding was

0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:11.280
<v Speaker 1>I had that plate? Yeah, yeah, that it's called a charger,

0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:13.920
<v Speaker 1>the round that you know, Mickey, the thing on the

0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:16.480
<v Speaker 1>outside you put the you're China in the middle of it,

0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:20.120
<v Speaker 1>that round. Yeah, yeah, it's called charger. Rob was impressed.

0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:24.120
<v Speaker 1>I held it up like I won Wimbledon. I won Wimbledon,

0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:26.680
<v Speaker 1>because that's if you're a tennis guy. Was that before

0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:30.040
<v Speaker 1>I had How long have you been married? Now? Two

0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:31.880
<v Speaker 1>and a half years. I don't know. I was thinking

0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:35.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe that was before Uber, but yeah, no, hopefully Uber

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:37.880
<v Speaker 1>was working that. Yeah he did, he did. Yeah, we

0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:42.720
<v Speaker 1>were things safe around. Yeah, we're safe team. So he's

0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:47.880
<v Speaker 1>getting through it, he's fine, Mickey, Yes, rust or rest yeah, uh,

0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:51.440
<v Speaker 1>can I get in between? I'm trying to find that path.

0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:55.280
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm trying to farming ground in between between,

0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:58.440
<v Speaker 1>kind of keeping the momentum going for a while. Yeah,

0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:01.959
<v Speaker 1>and then making sure that I don't incur any injury

0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:05.840
<v Speaker 1>that's gonna keep me or really hurt me getting into

0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:09.280
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs. But I think for the majority of it,

0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:13.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm playing a quarter, I'm playing a half. And then

0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:17.040
<v Speaker 1>it's like, Okay, that's good. Uh, this was this We

0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:19.840
<v Speaker 1>had a good week of practice. I think if if

0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:24.320
<v Speaker 1>you say we're resting everybody, you're absolutely right about that,

0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:26.920
<v Speaker 1>then you blow off three days of practice, it's a

0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:29.079
<v Speaker 1>worthless week. So what do you do? Do you get

0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:31.520
<v Speaker 1>right from the Seahawks right now? It's what you do? Well? Yeah,

0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:34.240
<v Speaker 1>but do you approach this week of practice everybody's attention?

0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:37.800
<v Speaker 1>You practice Wednesday, Thursday and then Friday. Do you tell guys? Oh?

0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:40.720
<v Speaker 1>I tell him on Sunday, Come on Sunday. Yeah? How

0:09:40.720 --> 0:09:42.600
<v Speaker 1>about how about beause I don't want the other guys

0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:46.000
<v Speaker 1>to think, Okay, I'm chop meat. No, I'm not important.

0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:47.800
<v Speaker 1>What a play? Let me ask you this, what if

0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:49.920
<v Speaker 1>you did it like the night when you're at the

0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:54.240
<v Speaker 1>hotel like sor or that. Okay, our inactives this week

0:09:54.280 --> 0:09:57.839
<v Speaker 1>guys are gonna be Yeah, Arne Smith and Nat Prescott,

0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:02.559
<v Speaker 1>Ezekiel Elliott. And that's when I mean that's basically when

0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:05.079
<v Speaker 1>they told h They told Cam Fleming that he was

0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:07.120
<v Speaker 1>starting in the game, you know the game he had

0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:09.640
<v Speaker 1>to you know. Tyrn Smith also, hey, you're you're playing

0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:11.480
<v Speaker 1>this week? Walked into locker room and they told him.

0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:13.679
<v Speaker 1>I think Mickey's onto something too, because you want those

0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:16.480
<v Speaker 1>guys practicing hard like they're like the chance of them

0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:19.240
<v Speaker 1>going to play. See. I don't worry so much about

0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:23.439
<v Speaker 1>preparing for the Giants as I do preparing myself. Why

0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:26.319
<v Speaker 1>do I have to do to get my team better?

0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:32.400
<v Speaker 1>Not necessarily preparation for the Giants, but self evaluation and

0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:35.079
<v Speaker 1>here's what we got to improve on, and you can

0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:38.040
<v Speaker 1>do sort of like they would do during the bye week. Yeah,

0:10:38.080 --> 0:10:40.600
<v Speaker 1>it's like it's about you. Yeah, it's not about getting

0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:43.640
<v Speaker 1>ready for an opponent. And I just think you have

0:10:43.800 --> 0:10:47.079
<v Speaker 1>to keep their attention. You cannot allow them to blow

0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:50.360
<v Speaker 1>off three days of practice. Yeah, excuse. Can I ask

0:10:50.400 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 1>you a question? Though? Have they've been playing playoffs? I'm

0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:55.280
<v Speaker 1>just thinking to this they play they've been playing playoff

0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:58.040
<v Speaker 1>football for the last nine weeks. Yeah, I mean, are

0:10:58.080 --> 0:11:02.720
<v Speaker 1>we Is it? I don't know, Mickey, I mean, is it?

0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:06.120
<v Speaker 1>You want to stay on him? But do they need

0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:09.560
<v Speaker 1>a break. Well, I think you can. I'm just asking

0:11:09.600 --> 0:11:11.360
<v Speaker 1>that question because I don't have an answer. No, I

0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:14.280
<v Speaker 1>think you can kind of practice hard, but maybe not

0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:20.920
<v Speaker 1>as long. Yeah, just you gotta keep their attention. And

0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:23.360
<v Speaker 1>I think you gotta keep because if I remember, right

0:11:23.400 --> 0:11:26.560
<v Speaker 1>in twenty sixteen, they didn't know who was playing and

0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:29.760
<v Speaker 1>who wasn't, and they ended up playing a quarter, right,

0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:32.120
<v Speaker 1>Dak played a little bit. Zeke did not play that

0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:35.360
<v Speaker 1>now and I'm okay. That was the game at Philadelphia, right, yes,

0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:37.760
<v Speaker 1>and I remember, and then then they put Romo in

0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:41.320
<v Speaker 1>for a series. They went down and scored Mark Sanchez

0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:47.360
<v Speaker 1>out of the game, and then Sanchez took over. After that. Yeah, well, hey,

0:11:47.480 --> 0:11:50.880
<v Speaker 1>think about that game, think about try not to think

0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:54.480
<v Speaker 1>about last year, but the last the same thing. Yeah,

0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:56.920
<v Speaker 1>Falls was so bad. We're sitting there going, well, they

0:11:56.920 --> 0:11:59.680
<v Speaker 1>need to start. Oh no. The question, the question after

0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:04.240
<v Speaker 1>that game was Falls is like, h coach shortly, maybe, oh,

0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:06.120
<v Speaker 1>we've got to figure some things out. Well they did.

0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:07.960
<v Speaker 1>I think I think Peter that was the game that

0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:10.440
<v Speaker 1>kind of made them figure things out about Nick Foles.

0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:14.360
<v Speaker 1>I think Peterson's sounds great. Oh, I love it. He

0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:16.840
<v Speaker 1>said something like Sudfeld's got to get ready, just yeah,

0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:19.280
<v Speaker 1>be ready, yeah, be ready. Yeah, we thought we left

0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:21.839
<v Speaker 1>their going. Sudfelds should start nixt I. Yeah, I think

0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:24.320
<v Speaker 1>I wrote that. I'm like the Eagles want to go

0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:26.960
<v Speaker 1>far on the play a little, I know. So in

0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:30.520
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixteen, the Cowboys ripped off. How many in a row?

0:12:30.559 --> 0:12:35.160
<v Speaker 1>They win thirteen games? Eleven? Right? Yeah, home field advantage,

0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:37.920
<v Speaker 1>yeah right. Do you think the first half of the

0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:42.000
<v Speaker 1>Packer game was a product of rust? I do? Now

0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:43.680
<v Speaker 1>they had a week off in between. This is a

0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:46.280
<v Speaker 1>little bit different. Yeah, but see you didn't you didn't

0:12:46.320 --> 0:12:49.440
<v Speaker 1>you You kind of had that sixteenth game off. Yeah,

0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:52.000
<v Speaker 1>he didn't play the next week and then you had

0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:56.000
<v Speaker 1>to go another played and they didn't get going, like

0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:59.400
<v Speaker 1>you said, until the second half. Yeah, offensively, I don't know.

0:12:59.760 --> 0:13:03.440
<v Speaker 1>They were they were way behind, weren't they. They they

0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:07.640
<v Speaker 1>had Yeah, there were a couple of touchdowns, yeah, exactly, Yeah,

0:13:07.640 --> 0:13:09.640
<v Speaker 1>it was yeah, yeah, they the first two drives of

0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:13.480
<v Speaker 1>the game imeared Green Bay down the field and yeah,

0:13:13.480 --> 0:13:15.040
<v Speaker 1>and then you were in trouble a little bit there,

0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:16.880
<v Speaker 1>and then everybody kind of woke up and they had

0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:20.079
<v Speaker 1>that bad penalty, the penalty on Bryce Butler, too many

0:13:20.120 --> 0:13:22.360
<v Speaker 1>men in the huddle, penalty all that. There's a bunch

0:13:22.360 --> 0:13:24.960
<v Speaker 1>of crap, you know, one of those things. So yeah,

0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:27.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean and the teams that you might be facing

0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:32.719
<v Speaker 1>in a week and a half, Yeah, Seattle or Minnesota,

0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:35.640
<v Speaker 1>they gotta play, right, I gotta play. They gotta play. Yeah,

0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:39.600
<v Speaker 1>they can't be rested in anybody because Philly's lurking. They're

0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:41.599
<v Speaker 1>trying to Why do I think Philly's gonna get in

0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:44.960
<v Speaker 1>this tournament? Because they're playing really well, I mean really

0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:49.480
<v Speaker 1>well right now? Does anybody trust Minnesota right now? No, boy,

0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:51.920
<v Speaker 1>They're got to be looking to themselves like Zim's thinking, well,

0:13:52.080 --> 0:13:53.760
<v Speaker 1>Zim's like, oh wait, kind of just where we want

0:13:54.280 --> 0:13:57.840
<v Speaker 1>when you're in I'm like, no, I wanted this thing

0:13:57.880 --> 0:14:00.920
<v Speaker 1>wrapped up. A long st really is a good problem

0:14:01.000 --> 0:14:03.320
<v Speaker 1>to have if you're the Cowboys, especially because we've talked

0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:07.880
<v Speaker 1>about it. The stretch. They had three games in eleven days.

0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Very fortunate. The division wasn't what it was, and you

0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:15.199
<v Speaker 1>know where I misevaluated that the conference was the NFC South. Well,

0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:16.760
<v Speaker 1>I was looking good for a while. I was. I

0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:21.680
<v Speaker 1>misevaluated Carolina and I misevaluated Atlanta Tampa. I was at

0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:25.440
<v Speaker 1>now New Orleans. Just New Orleans went nuts. But you

0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:28.760
<v Speaker 1>beat the best team in the South, you know which

0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:32.280
<v Speaker 1>is And think about what happened because twelve weeks ago

0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:36.040
<v Speaker 1>or whatever, it was the NFC least, right, Wow, it's

0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:39.800
<v Speaker 1>the worst division in football. Well maybe not. I don't

0:14:39.800 --> 0:14:42.000
<v Speaker 1>think anybody wants to play Philadelphia got a chance to

0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:47.640
<v Speaker 1>get two teams in, right, yeah, Philadelphia. That's that's what's

0:14:47.680 --> 0:14:50.280
<v Speaker 1>great about this tournament is the fact that the fifth

0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:52.960
<v Speaker 1>and six seeds can just you could go on the road.

0:14:53.040 --> 0:14:55.560
<v Speaker 1>These teams nowaday, you go on the road and win games. Sure,

0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:57.480
<v Speaker 1>you know it used to be like you got home

0:14:57.480 --> 0:15:00.920
<v Speaker 1>field in the playoffs. You're lock. And I guess the

0:15:01.000 --> 0:15:04.320
<v Speaker 1>numbers show that I think the Cowboys are the last

0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:07.600
<v Speaker 1>team not to get to the Super Bowl? Is that right?

0:15:07.640 --> 0:15:09.600
<v Speaker 1>With the number one? Look at that, right, Mickey, that

0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:14.680
<v Speaker 1>that sounds good. I think Dallas was the last number

0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:16.400
<v Speaker 1>one seed not to make it to the Super Bowl.

0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:19.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure Kent is feverishly, but you know, I've been

0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:21.680
<v Speaker 1>on the keyboard right now looking at up. There have

0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:24.760
<v Speaker 1>been years in the last ten years where wild card

0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:26.880
<v Speaker 1>teams like we're talking about, Yeah, you gotta play you

0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:32.520
<v Speaker 1>keep yeah, Giants Packers in twenty ten. That's absolutely Baltimore

0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:37.000
<v Speaker 1>was a walk. Absolutely so parody. It's parody because the

0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:41.840
<v Speaker 1>reason why it didn't happen before is the reason you

0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:44.840
<v Speaker 1>had the first seed. The reason you had the second

0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:48.440
<v Speaker 1>seed was because you were a good team. So you

0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:51.960
<v Speaker 1>should win, right, because you're playing an inferior opponent. But

0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:54.800
<v Speaker 1>I think as we've gone along over the last decade,

0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:57.520
<v Speaker 1>things have kind of evened out quite a bit. So

0:15:57.560 --> 0:16:00.440
<v Speaker 1>if you're the sixth seed, doesn't mean you're that much worst.

0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:03.600
<v Speaker 1>No first seed, No, you have a chance. As we've

0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:06.480
<v Speaker 1>seen here down the stretch with the top teams in

0:16:06.800 --> 0:16:09.680
<v Speaker 1>the NFC. Well, I do know this though, if Philadelphia

0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:13.000
<v Speaker 1>or Minnesota gets in, they've both played the Saints and

0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:15.880
<v Speaker 1>both have lost. I mean the Philadelphia got that wasn't

0:16:15.880 --> 0:16:18.800
<v Speaker 1>that bad stretch for Philadelphia. They got embarrassed. I mean

0:16:18.840 --> 0:16:21.680
<v Speaker 1>I think it was right after the Cowboys had beat him,

0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:23.600
<v Speaker 1>they went to New Orleans and then it was just

0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:27.720
<v Speaker 1>it was a debacle down there. But you're you're right, Mickey,

0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:31.440
<v Speaker 1>these teams, I think you just you play whoever you play,

0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:34.320
<v Speaker 1>But I think you also have to be smart about

0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:36.760
<v Speaker 1>what kind of condition your team is at this point

0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:38.920
<v Speaker 1>in time. I think every the one thing I've learned

0:16:38.920 --> 0:16:42.320
<v Speaker 1>about once your team gets into the playoffs, people start

0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:45.720
<v Speaker 1>to become healthy, you know, the bumps and bruises and stuff.

0:16:45.720 --> 0:16:48.360
<v Speaker 1>Everybody wants to be a part of playoff football. And

0:16:48.480 --> 0:16:51.160
<v Speaker 1>Mickey's been pool reported the Super Bowl. He's seen it.

0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:54.280
<v Speaker 1>He's probably filed an injury report with no injuries, no

0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:57.400
<v Speaker 1>reported injuries, you know, I mean everybody, it's all everybody.

0:16:57.400 --> 0:17:00.760
<v Speaker 1>It's when the playoffs did, It's like, okay, it's you know,

0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:02.920
<v Speaker 1>all hands on deck, here we go. I got one

0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:04.720
<v Speaker 1>more game to get Yeah, I've just got I've been

0:17:04.800 --> 0:17:06.760
<v Speaker 1>dreaming about it my whole life. Yeah, exactly. You just

0:17:06.760 --> 0:17:08.960
<v Speaker 1>don't know when you're gonna get back. And that's why

0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:12.480
<v Speaker 1>that's why you'll see guys like it's very guys like

0:17:12.680 --> 0:17:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Tavon Austin right now. He's anxious to get back out

0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:18.359
<v Speaker 1>of the General manager said that this morning, you know,

0:17:18.359 --> 0:17:20.800
<v Speaker 1>on his show, he said, Hey, I want to see

0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:22.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'd like to see Tavon on a good

0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:24.840
<v Speaker 1>film out there for people to see. On Tavon Austin,

0:17:25.000 --> 0:17:26.720
<v Speaker 1>I'll give you the best example of that when the

0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys went to the Super Bowl in ninety two and

0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:33.919
<v Speaker 1>Bill Bates had torn as acl maybe four weeks ahead

0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:37.439
<v Speaker 1>of that, five weeks ahead of that, they got to Pasadena,

0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:39.640
<v Speaker 1>and he was trying to go out there and run

0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:43.120
<v Speaker 1>and prove that he could play right and ended up

0:17:43.200 --> 0:17:47.159
<v Speaker 1>basically probably crying silently to himself on the sideline that

0:17:47.320 --> 0:17:51.720
<v Speaker 1>I have played ten years and I can't play in

0:17:51.760 --> 0:17:55.160
<v Speaker 1>the Super Bowl. Yeah. That's that's the gut punch right there.

0:17:55.800 --> 0:17:57.639
<v Speaker 1>I mean, these guys, this is what they live for.

0:17:57.760 --> 0:17:59.879
<v Speaker 1>It's like it's like the NBA, you know, Rob, you

0:18:00.119 --> 0:18:02.080
<v Speaker 1>big NBA guy. They get down the playoffs that maybe

0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:04.679
<v Speaker 1>he's like this regular season kind of and then they

0:18:04.720 --> 0:18:06.639
<v Speaker 1>get in the playoffs, it's like, let's step it up

0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:08.760
<v Speaker 1>here we go yep. So you know, and I think

0:18:08.800 --> 0:18:13.440
<v Speaker 1>you can monitor guys snaps while they play. Like DeMarcus

0:18:13.520 --> 0:18:15.879
<v Speaker 1>Lawrence doesn't need to go out there and play thirty

0:18:15.920 --> 0:18:18.600
<v Speaker 1>plays in the first half if he has ten, just

0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:22.400
<v Speaker 1>putting in maybe to pass rush, keep him involved. Get

0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:27.440
<v Speaker 1>Armstrong out there playing a little bit more. Randy Gregory, Taco,

0:18:27.760 --> 0:18:30.080
<v Speaker 1>let Tacco, Yeah, Tacco, play the whole him out there,

0:18:30.080 --> 0:18:33.960
<v Speaker 1>because obviously Crawford's not playing. No, I can't imagine that,

0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:36.639
<v Speaker 1>but I heard really good news him walking around the

0:18:36.640 --> 0:18:39.040
<v Speaker 1>facility and stuff. It didn't run into him yesterday or anything,

0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:42.960
<v Speaker 1>but I heard he was moving well. Jason Garrett told

0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:47.280
<v Speaker 1>us Monday, functioning normally, walking around looked like he's okay.

0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:49.919
<v Speaker 1>So that's great. And this is a guy you know,

0:18:50.000 --> 0:18:51.920
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't need to play in this No, I don't

0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:54.520
<v Speaker 1>know if he physically would be able to yet, like

0:18:54.520 --> 0:18:56.920
<v Speaker 1>you said, it's a pretty big boy stinger is what

0:18:57.200 --> 0:19:02.960
<v Speaker 1>big boy? Yeah? So yeah, yeah, And Jason Garrett's right now.

0:19:03.000 --> 0:19:05.359
<v Speaker 1>His line is we're gonna play this game. But that

0:19:05.480 --> 0:19:08.480
<v Speaker 1>he hasn't changed. I give him, Craig he is. He's

0:19:08.520 --> 0:19:11.919
<v Speaker 1>been very consistent about that. But there are significant players

0:19:11.920 --> 0:19:13.840
<v Speaker 1>on this team where you can qualify it and say

0:19:14.000 --> 0:19:15.880
<v Speaker 1>he does need rest. We talked about I don't want

0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:17.879
<v Speaker 1>to see twenty one play when he once had some

0:19:18.200 --> 0:19:20.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's my my hope, some bumps and bruises.

0:19:20.960 --> 0:19:23.879
<v Speaker 1>Zach Martin, yeh, Tyrn Smith. DeMarcus Lawrence has been on

0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:25.639
<v Speaker 1>the injury report this season. So there's a lot of

0:19:25.640 --> 0:19:28.160
<v Speaker 1>guys that mean a lot to your team who probably

0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:29.639
<v Speaker 1>could use a little bit of rest, I'll tell you.

0:19:29.800 --> 0:19:31.840
<v Speaker 1>And it's not it's not. Oh, we're just resting guys.

0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:34.320
<v Speaker 1>They need it, And here's an opportunity. We played the

0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:37.560
<v Speaker 1>quarterback or not I play him a quarter? Okay, then

0:19:37.880 --> 0:19:39.800
<v Speaker 1>I need I guess some Mary Cooper can play a

0:19:40.840 --> 0:19:44.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, yeah, maybe Mark Cooper. I mean Mark Cooper's big.

0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:46.360
<v Speaker 1>Mary Cooper's just as big as twenty one in this thing.

0:19:46.359 --> 0:19:48.959
<v Speaker 1>If you think about the things he does, the plays

0:19:48.960 --> 0:19:51.720
<v Speaker 1>he makes, but the stuff he opens up for other

0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:54.560
<v Speaker 1>people too. I'm all for Noah Brown going out there

0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:57.199
<v Speaker 1>and playing sixty five snaps if he can, you know,

0:19:57.760 --> 0:20:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Tavon Austin, I'm all for those guys. Go ahead, Beasley

0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:02.560
<v Speaker 1>with the foot man. Yeah, Noah, I mean I don't

0:20:02.560 --> 0:20:04.479
<v Speaker 1>need to see her. Maybe I give him a quarter

0:20:04.640 --> 0:20:09.280
<v Speaker 1>and then yeah, go go grab his helmet. This is

0:20:09.400 --> 0:20:11.520
<v Speaker 1>terrible on my part. Did they get Lance Lenora back

0:20:11.560 --> 0:20:14.240
<v Speaker 1>or we'll know that today on waivers. I haven't heard

0:20:14.280 --> 0:20:17.360
<v Speaker 1>that he'll be today. He'll be today, Okay, Yeah, that one.

0:20:17.440 --> 0:20:20.080
<v Speaker 1>That one was a little surprising to me. Guys. I'm

0:20:20.080 --> 0:20:24.000
<v Speaker 1>not gonna lie. Well, it's a sign that Tavon's closer, right, Yeah,

0:20:24.040 --> 0:20:26.639
<v Speaker 1>But and your numbers at receiver then are heavy. I

0:20:26.840 --> 0:20:29.160
<v Speaker 1>like link, but you hate to lose a guy. Yes,

0:20:29.359 --> 0:20:31.160
<v Speaker 1>there's teams that are out of it. They're gonna say,

0:20:31.200 --> 0:20:34.360
<v Speaker 1>you know what, I've heard how much about this guy? Yeah?

0:20:34.400 --> 0:20:36.640
<v Speaker 1>That this is where bad teams kind of start playing

0:20:36.680 --> 0:20:39.000
<v Speaker 1>the waiver wire. Even the last week, they'll bring guys

0:20:39.080 --> 0:20:40.880
<v Speaker 1>up off the practice squad to make sure they don't

0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:43.720
<v Speaker 1>have to sign him. Arizona claim swearing jury. They did. Yeah,

0:20:43.720 --> 0:20:46.119
<v Speaker 1>and Cowboys had no interest into him at all. And

0:20:46.160 --> 0:20:49.000
<v Speaker 1>I know everybody out there is you know why, why why?

0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:51.320
<v Speaker 1>But you know you got a young safety that played

0:20:51.320 --> 0:20:53.720
<v Speaker 1>his rear off the other day. That kid, that kid

0:20:53.760 --> 0:20:56.040
<v Speaker 1>does not get a break when it comes to how

0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:58.719
<v Speaker 1>he how he tackles people. And that was something I

0:20:58.800 --> 0:21:02.040
<v Speaker 1>was worried about him rapid. He's more than physical. That

0:21:02.400 --> 0:21:04.960
<v Speaker 1>man that that Xavier Woods will throw his body around

0:21:05.040 --> 0:21:07.199
<v Speaker 1>and he and he and he really tries to do

0:21:07.240 --> 0:21:09.280
<v Speaker 1>it the right way. He really does. I don't think

0:21:09.280 --> 0:21:11.240
<v Speaker 1>he's not a headhunter. He tries to do it the

0:21:11.280 --> 0:21:12.760
<v Speaker 1>right way. I don't know what else he could have

0:21:12.760 --> 0:21:15.600
<v Speaker 1>done on that he that was textbook when they when

0:21:15.760 --> 0:21:17.680
<v Speaker 1>when Mickey and I go back to the meeting they

0:21:17.720 --> 0:21:21.199
<v Speaker 1>have and next summer, and then Al Rubion standing there,

0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Mickey's gonna look at him and say, honestly, all you

0:21:24.359 --> 0:21:27.840
<v Speaker 1>really really that, Mickey? No, Mickey questions the guy. It's great.

0:21:27.880 --> 0:21:30.000
<v Speaker 1>I sat there and watched him just question those referees.

0:21:30.119 --> 0:21:32.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, yeah, I get him. Mickey. You know what

0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:37.000
<v Speaker 1>we bought the hat there. I mean we're going back. Yeah,

0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:38.919
<v Speaker 1>We're going back. I've got back every year. I've got

0:21:38.960 --> 0:21:42.879
<v Speaker 1>a towel now it's a black and white stripe like

0:21:42.920 --> 0:21:46.280
<v Speaker 1>a racist. It's on top of my my my computer

0:21:46.400 --> 0:21:49.240
<v Speaker 1>square upstairs. Yeah. I meant to bring it in so

0:21:49.320 --> 0:21:52.159
<v Speaker 1>I just throw the flag in your next life. You

0:21:52.160 --> 0:21:54.280
<v Speaker 1>were going to be an NFL official. I just know it.

0:21:54.480 --> 0:21:56.639
<v Speaker 1>If I didn't do what I did, I would have

0:21:56.680 --> 0:21:59.280
<v Speaker 1>gone into officiating. I'll guarantee you. Did you see Mickey

0:21:59.359 --> 0:22:02.920
<v Speaker 1>those cold games. I could soldier Field all bundled up.

0:22:02.960 --> 0:22:06.440
<v Speaker 1>You know he's got the his hat ons. Yep. Maybe

0:22:06.440 --> 0:22:08.880
<v Speaker 1>over the years I'd have been calling balls and strikes

0:22:08.960 --> 0:22:13.879
<v Speaker 1>or technical files in basketball. There you go. You have

0:22:13.960 --> 0:22:15.879
<v Speaker 1>the mentality of a and do it. Don't put up

0:22:15.960 --> 0:22:18.680
<v Speaker 1>job at two. Yeah, Rickey, Mickey would get in trouble

0:22:18.720 --> 0:22:20.679
<v Speaker 1>because the coach would say something to him and he

0:22:20.680 --> 0:22:22.800
<v Speaker 1>would turn and say something bad. Oh, he would toss.

0:22:22.840 --> 0:22:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Everybody likes him. Gosh that temper. Okay, all right, let's

0:22:27.720 --> 0:22:30.200

0:22:30.240 --> 0:22:33.200

<v Speaker 1>they're ready to put Tavon Austin on the field. Uh.

0:26:43.320 --> 0:26:45.639
<v Speaker 1>And I believe a lot of it has to do

0:26:45.800 --> 0:26:49.280
<v Speaker 1>with maybe throwing some plays out there to let the

0:26:49.320 --> 0:26:52.639
<v Speaker 1>next opponents say, hmmm, I got to waste five minutes

0:26:52.640 --> 0:26:55.600
<v Speaker 1>of practice on that just in case. Well done. So

0:26:56.040 --> 0:26:59.600
<v Speaker 1>it sounded like, you know, obviously Zack Martin does it

0:26:59.760 --> 0:27:03.240
<v Speaker 1>need to be out there, But he was kind of

0:27:03.280 --> 0:27:06.560
<v Speaker 1>a proponent of h he spying into his head. Coaches

0:27:06.640 --> 0:27:11.080
<v Speaker 1>a right, the GM, the GM needs to think about

0:27:11.119 --> 0:27:13.640
<v Speaker 1>replace the players. I'm telling you, don't. Don't buy into

0:27:13.680 --> 0:27:16.640
<v Speaker 1>the no he's I mean, think about this. Doesn't ten

0:27:16.680 --> 0:27:19.199
<v Speaker 1>and six sound much better than nine and seven? I

0:27:19.200 --> 0:27:21.360
<v Speaker 1>know at this point it doesn't matter. Boy, we got

0:27:21.400 --> 0:27:26.120
<v Speaker 1>some nice hats, that's all. But I think I think

0:27:26.160 --> 0:27:28.840
<v Speaker 1>ten and six sounds especially since I picked him to

0:27:28.840 --> 0:27:31.040
<v Speaker 1>go ten and six. The Giants win the Super Bowl

0:27:31.040 --> 0:27:33.080
<v Speaker 1>at nine and seven, they sure did, But he really

0:27:33.119 --> 0:27:36.400
<v Speaker 1>cares to beat the Cowboys? Right? Yeah? They won? They won.

0:27:36.640 --> 0:27:40.040
<v Speaker 1>I think they won three straight road games, right all right?

0:27:40.160 --> 0:27:43.880
<v Speaker 1>They won at Tampa, won at Dallas, and then won

0:27:44.040 --> 0:27:46.000
<v Speaker 1>at Green Bay and then won the Super Bowl in

0:27:46.040 --> 0:27:48.439
<v Speaker 1>the road. So yeah, four straight road Yeah, in the season.

0:27:48.720 --> 0:27:52.000
<v Speaker 1>Um what else? Oh he also and I thought this

0:27:52.119 --> 0:27:56.280
<v Speaker 1>was very interesting talking about the season, Uh, that he

0:27:56.720 --> 0:28:00.560
<v Speaker 1>really values them being able to dig them selves out

0:28:00.600 --> 0:28:03.639
<v Speaker 1>of a hole. That it was three and five and

0:28:03.960 --> 0:28:07.440
<v Speaker 1>things got better, and he thought you could be more

0:28:07.480 --> 0:28:12.480
<v Speaker 1>excited about that than basically anything else. They had the

0:28:12.520 --> 0:28:16.240
<v Speaker 1>wherewithal and improved to the point and his point was, hey,

0:28:16.560 --> 0:28:19.720
<v Speaker 1>we lost some games to some really good teams, and

0:28:20.480 --> 0:28:22.840
<v Speaker 1>they were and they were close calls. You know, he

0:28:22.920 --> 0:28:26.280
<v Speaker 1>met the three five. You know, you lose to Houston

0:28:27.080 --> 0:28:32.720
<v Speaker 1>at that time, Washington was hot. Yeah, two games by

0:28:33.359 --> 0:28:38.320
<v Speaker 1>uh three points. So uh. He talked extensively about how

0:28:38.440 --> 0:28:41.240
<v Speaker 1>how he thought that was very valuable for the growth

0:28:41.240 --> 0:28:47.160
<v Speaker 1>of this team. More impressed, more impressive how they won

0:28:47.480 --> 0:28:50.240
<v Speaker 1>in twenty sixteen the division or how they did it

0:28:50.320 --> 0:28:57.440
<v Speaker 1>this year. I would say twenty sixteen only because number one,

0:28:57.480 --> 0:29:01.120
<v Speaker 1>how good the record was, and number two, your quarterback

0:29:01.280 --> 0:29:04.120
<v Speaker 1>was a fourth round draft pick who started training camp

0:29:04.160 --> 0:29:07.400
<v Speaker 1>as your number three guy. I don't think anybody saw

0:29:07.440 --> 0:29:09.480
<v Speaker 1>that coming, not to the level that they played. And

0:29:09.560 --> 0:29:11.440
<v Speaker 1>Zeke was a rookie and it was just kind of

0:29:11.440 --> 0:29:14.440
<v Speaker 1>a magical season, right, But I don't want to take

0:29:14.440 --> 0:29:17.760
<v Speaker 1>anything away from what Mickey just said. The way they've

0:29:17.800 --> 0:29:20.480
<v Speaker 1>climbed out of this, that's a lot of people wrote

0:29:20.520 --> 0:29:23.160
<v Speaker 1>them off. Most people did. I mean, if you think

0:29:23.160 --> 0:29:26.600
<v Speaker 1>about it, even though the first game was sixteen to eight, yeah,

0:29:26.640 --> 0:29:30.480
<v Speaker 1>we thought they were in over their heads against Carolina, yes, uh.

0:29:30.640 --> 0:29:34.600
<v Speaker 1>And then obviously Seattle it really wasn't as close as

0:29:35.040 --> 0:29:38.680
<v Speaker 1>what was at twenty four thirteen. Yeah, it was like

0:29:39.440 --> 0:29:40.920
<v Speaker 1>that was a tough one, you know, and then you

0:29:40.960 --> 0:29:43.240
<v Speaker 1>go to you go to Washington and they had to

0:29:43.280 --> 0:29:47.960
<v Speaker 1>scrap and beat Detroit at home, and then and then

0:29:48.040 --> 0:29:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Washington and then you know, you get beat by Tennessee

0:29:50.960 --> 0:29:53.480
<v Speaker 1>and you're ready to throw in the towel. Yeah. See,

0:29:53.480 --> 0:29:56.040
<v Speaker 1>that's what I'm saying. It was to me, as they

0:29:56.040 --> 0:29:59.680
<v Speaker 1>were winning games in two thy sixteen, it was a

0:29:59.760 --> 0:30:02.240
<v Speaker 1>pres I said of how they they did a great job.

0:30:02.280 --> 0:30:06.240
<v Speaker 1>The offense was just humming along your rookie rookie quarterback,

0:30:06.480 --> 0:30:09.960
<v Speaker 1>rookie running back, and it's just such a magical type

0:30:10.000 --> 0:30:12.760
<v Speaker 1>of a run. I think I'm more impressed by what

0:30:12.800 --> 0:30:15.480
<v Speaker 1>they just did. I think I'm more impressed by them

0:30:15.520 --> 0:30:18.720
<v Speaker 1>going and winning the game in Atlanta, and Okay, Lanta

0:30:18.800 --> 0:30:22.680
<v Speaker 1>turned out to be you know, Jacksonville. Mickey. Mickey was

0:30:22.720 --> 0:30:25.000
<v Speaker 1>right about Jacksonville. I mean, I'm just saying there were

0:30:25.040 --> 0:30:29.680
<v Speaker 1>teams at the time that you thought, damn Atlanta. They

0:30:29.680 --> 0:30:32.320
<v Speaker 1>scored thirty one points at home, man, how do you

0:30:32.360 --> 0:30:35.040
<v Speaker 1>stop them? Remember that whole week I was just telling me, oh, yeah,

0:30:35.120 --> 0:30:37.000
<v Speaker 1>you gotta do this, you gotta and he went out

0:30:37.040 --> 0:30:39.480
<v Speaker 1>there and shut them down. Yeah, and then you and

0:30:39.520 --> 0:30:43.680
<v Speaker 1>then he beat a New Orleans team. It was extremely high.

0:30:43.480 --> 0:30:48.280
<v Speaker 1>I just feel now that season sixteen, he went the

0:30:48.400 --> 0:30:51.520
<v Speaker 1>rookie the quarterback won a game at Pittsburgh, and he

0:30:51.600 --> 0:30:54.280
<v Speaker 1>won a game at Green Bay. And not many rookie

0:30:54.360 --> 0:30:56.720
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks get to live to tell a story. One day.

0:30:57.040 --> 0:30:59.960
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna be retired old Mississippi fishing with his grandkids.

0:31:00.600 --> 0:31:03.200
<v Speaker 1>He said, Yeah, your granddad won a game at Hinz

0:31:03.320 --> 0:31:06.160
<v Speaker 1>Field against Ben Roethlisberger, who they just stuck in the

0:31:06.160 --> 0:31:09.480
<v Speaker 1>Hall of Fame, you know, winning driving. Yeah, exactly. You know,

0:31:09.560 --> 0:31:12.040
<v Speaker 1>I took Aaron Rodgers, went toe to toe with Aaron

0:31:12.120 --> 0:31:15.680
<v Speaker 1>Rodgers Hall of Fame guy. Yeah, your dad or your granddad,

0:31:15.720 --> 0:31:18.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, you know what I'm saying that those are

0:31:18.400 --> 0:31:21.640
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, but the whole they dug out of when

0:31:21.640 --> 0:31:25.240
<v Speaker 1>it when it looked, I mean, it looks so bleak. Hey,

0:31:25.280 --> 0:31:29.600
<v Speaker 1>three and five just looked like going to philadelphia're thinking there,

0:31:29.640 --> 0:31:32.640
<v Speaker 1>this is over. I mean, all right, brought us fire

0:31:32.720 --> 0:31:35.160
<v Speaker 1>up the coaching talk again, you idiot. You know, I

0:31:35.200 --> 0:31:37.560
<v Speaker 1>think you're swaying me. You're swaying me. No, I'm not.

0:31:37.600 --> 0:31:39.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying. I mean I'm looking at the schedule

0:31:40.000 --> 0:31:42.480
<v Speaker 1>right now, and it's that it's for Yeah, they went

0:31:42.520 --> 0:31:44.520
<v Speaker 1>on the road at Philly, but it's that three games

0:31:44.520 --> 0:31:48.240
<v Speaker 1>and eleven days, twelve days. It changed their whole season.

0:31:48.480 --> 0:31:50.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, you beat Washington on Thanksgiving and then it's

0:31:51.000 --> 0:31:53.480
<v Speaker 1>a you go, you don't get this, that ten day

0:31:53.520 --> 0:31:56.920
<v Speaker 1>break out Thanksgiving, seven days later you're playing the unstoppable

0:31:56.960 --> 0:31:59.479
<v Speaker 1>New Orleans Saints and what they were able to do,

0:31:59.600 --> 0:32:01.880
<v Speaker 1>and then coming back after the break and beating Philly

0:32:01.920 --> 0:32:04.640
<v Speaker 1>and overtime at home, showing a lot of guts there.

0:32:04.680 --> 0:32:09.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's I don't think anybody thought not only

0:32:09.240 --> 0:32:11.160
<v Speaker 1>could they come back and win the division, but win

0:32:11.240 --> 0:32:13.719
<v Speaker 1>it with a game to spare three and five? Right,

0:32:13.800 --> 0:32:15.640
<v Speaker 1>It really is incredible what they've been able to do.

0:32:15.720 --> 0:32:18.959
<v Speaker 1>You know. Jerry kind of compared it too when he

0:32:19.000 --> 0:32:21.840
<v Speaker 1>first got here and they blew the whole thing up

0:32:22.280 --> 0:32:24.400
<v Speaker 1>and they were, you know, they were awful, and he

0:32:24.480 --> 0:32:26.880
<v Speaker 1>pointed out, he goes and everybody was saying, you know,

0:32:26.920 --> 0:32:29.640
<v Speaker 1>with these guys don't know what they're doing. Dah, And

0:32:29.720 --> 0:32:34.560
<v Speaker 1>he goes in we train. We chained some tradition, meaning

0:32:34.600 --> 0:32:37.080
<v Speaker 1>people that had worked here for twenty nine years, well

0:32:37.080 --> 0:32:39.840
<v Speaker 1>they had a lot of them. Yeah, and then and

0:32:39.880 --> 0:32:44.680
<v Speaker 1>then and basically dug themselves out of the hole they

0:32:45.040 --> 0:32:48.280
<v Speaker 1>kind of created trying to get better. And then in

0:32:48.400 --> 0:32:51.400
<v Speaker 1>ninety one they made it to the playoffs, and so

0:32:51.760 --> 0:32:54.680
<v Speaker 1>it was like digging yourself out of a huge hole.

0:32:55.080 --> 0:32:59.280
<v Speaker 1>And it's very gratifying than just inheriting something and going forward,

0:32:59.680 --> 0:33:02.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, I mean, think about his life. He dug

0:33:02.360 --> 0:33:04.480
<v Speaker 1>himself a pretty good hole, yeah, you know, and he

0:33:04.560 --> 0:33:10.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of dug himself out of it. So I thought

0:33:10.040 --> 0:33:12.760
<v Speaker 1>that had a lot of meaning to this run to

0:33:12.760 --> 0:33:15.520
<v Speaker 1>get into the playoffs. But there are some parallels between

0:33:15.520 --> 0:33:18.720
<v Speaker 1>this one and twenty sixteen. And I'm talking about dealing

0:33:18.800 --> 0:33:21.360
<v Speaker 1>with injuries because twenty sixteen was so impressive to me,

0:33:21.360 --> 0:33:24.160
<v Speaker 1>obviously because of twenty fifteen when Romo went down, they

0:33:24.200 --> 0:33:27.400
<v Speaker 1>couldn't do anything. Didn't do anything this year defensively, Sean

0:33:27.480 --> 0:33:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Lee's been out for a large portion of this season.

0:33:29.640 --> 0:33:33.840
<v Speaker 1>Ealthy scratch, didn't play last week, only played seven snaps

0:33:33.880 --> 0:33:36.600
<v Speaker 1>the week before. And what this defense is doing, what

0:33:36.640 --> 0:33:40.320
<v Speaker 1>these young linebackers are doing, Yeah, really impressive. It's just

0:33:40.440 --> 0:33:43.240
<v Speaker 1>night and day from the season before both those years.

0:33:43.280 --> 0:33:46.880
<v Speaker 1>Every week and that we do a postgame show. I

0:33:46.960 --> 0:33:51.040
<v Speaker 1>look at the tackles and it's either Vanderish or Jalen Smith.

0:33:51.720 --> 0:33:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Every weekend it's vander Smith. And sometimes they'll flip, you know,

0:33:56.880 --> 0:33:58.959
<v Speaker 1>and then one day you'll get vandersch will make all

0:33:58.960 --> 0:34:01.400
<v Speaker 1>the tackles and and Jalen Smith will knock down all

0:34:01.400 --> 0:34:05.360
<v Speaker 1>the passes. You know. And I never would have believed

0:34:06.040 --> 0:34:08.240
<v Speaker 1>that I would have seen Sean Lee be a healthy

0:34:08.280 --> 0:34:10.520
<v Speaker 1>scratch for this football team. I would have never that

0:34:10.840 --> 0:34:13.680
<v Speaker 1>if you just said, Okay, go to go to Vegas, Rob,

0:34:13.719 --> 0:34:15.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, you and I we like the go in

0:34:15.440 --> 0:34:18.520
<v Speaker 1>the sports books. Maybe when we're allowed to back in

0:34:18.560 --> 0:34:21.760
<v Speaker 1>the day, back in the day, and if you said, okay,

0:34:21.960 --> 0:34:24.960
<v Speaker 1>put me put a ticket down on Shawn Lee will

0:34:24.960 --> 0:34:27.120
<v Speaker 1>be a healthy scratch this year for the Dallas Cowboys.

0:34:27.960 --> 0:34:30.560
<v Speaker 1>The odds on that after what you know about Sean

0:34:30.680 --> 0:34:33.239
<v Speaker 1>Lee and how important he was to the team, and

0:34:33.239 --> 0:34:35.600
<v Speaker 1>we're and you know, we're I mean, I know myself

0:34:35.600 --> 0:34:38.000
<v Speaker 1>sitting here talking about on these shows and all the

0:34:38.040 --> 0:34:41.400
<v Speaker 1>things we do, the happy Hour shows and stuff. Oh no,

0:34:41.600 --> 0:34:43.520
<v Speaker 1>don't worry about Sean Lee. You gotta put him in there,

0:34:43.520 --> 0:34:45.160
<v Speaker 1>getting back in there, getting back and they're getting back

0:34:45.160 --> 0:34:48.320
<v Speaker 1>in there. And then what they don't need him And

0:34:48.640 --> 0:34:50.960
<v Speaker 1>it's I don't mean don't need him in a bad way.

0:34:50.960 --> 0:34:53.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they just don't need him. They don't, They

0:34:53.840 --> 0:34:59.040
<v Speaker 1>don't they they they have, they have survived the having

0:34:59.080 --> 0:35:02.279
<v Speaker 1>Sean Lee. They've served vibe the you know yeah, And

0:35:02.680 --> 0:35:07.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to say they've been able to withstand not

0:35:07.320 --> 0:35:10.160
<v Speaker 1>having him on the field in two linebackers have made

0:35:10.200 --> 0:35:13.640
<v Speaker 1>him just yeah, guy that's standing next to you, and

0:35:13.680 --> 0:35:16.879
<v Speaker 1>I now Jason kind of qualified a little bit Mick

0:35:17.280 --> 0:35:19.960
<v Speaker 1>the other day Christmas Eve. He talked about how Anthony

0:35:20.000 --> 0:35:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Brown's injury kind of led to that situation where he

0:35:24.080 --> 0:35:26.799
<v Speaker 1>writing active because they needed somebody to be able to

0:35:26.800 --> 0:35:30.040
<v Speaker 1>play special teams. And they're still trying to manage Sean's

0:35:30.080 --> 0:35:32.560
<v Speaker 1>reps right back, and so yeah, you weren't going to

0:35:32.600 --> 0:35:34.880
<v Speaker 1>play h much anymore. It was a thirteen to fifteen

0:35:34.920 --> 0:35:37.680
<v Speaker 1>rep thing, and he doesn't play special teams. But I

0:35:37.800 --> 0:35:40.359
<v Speaker 1>never always, I never thought i'd see a game though

0:35:40.360 --> 0:35:44.279
<v Speaker 1>where Sean Lee, even playing thirteen or fifteen snaps, wasn't

0:35:44.320 --> 0:35:47.120
<v Speaker 1>going to play when you gotta win get into division title.

0:35:47.400 --> 0:35:49.880
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, yeah, that that to me was that That

0:35:49.960 --> 0:35:52.759
<v Speaker 1>to me was really that just shows you there's you

0:35:52.760 --> 0:35:55.160
<v Speaker 1>know that, that's what Jerry Jones needs to be proud

0:35:55.160 --> 0:35:58.799
<v Speaker 1>about the fact that he you know, he had blowhearts

0:35:58.840 --> 0:36:02.799
<v Speaker 1>like me telling him, I don't draft Jalen Smith, I can't.

0:36:02.840 --> 0:36:05.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, gosh, he's got a brace, he's got his

0:36:06.080 --> 0:36:09.400
<v Speaker 1>nerve problems, you know. I mean there's a lot of

0:36:09.440 --> 0:36:12.399
<v Speaker 1>risks there. Oh, I mean, doctor doctor Cooper. Give him

0:36:12.440 --> 0:36:14.600
<v Speaker 1>a you know, tip of the cap to him as well.

0:36:14.840 --> 0:36:18.719
<v Speaker 1>He should get a Nobel Peace Prize. Yeah, no for

0:36:18.840 --> 0:36:22.080
<v Speaker 1>what he did, doctor Cooper. Yes, Oh gosh, it's incredible.

0:36:22.080 --> 0:36:25.880
<v Speaker 1>I love Staff. Oh no, absolutely. Then he's wearing the

0:36:26.000 --> 0:36:28.759
<v Speaker 1>LBJ hat. Well, no, he's wearing the hat the back

0:36:28.760 --> 0:36:30.319
<v Speaker 1>in the day. Cheez. I wish I knew with the

0:36:30.360 --> 0:36:32.160
<v Speaker 1>doctor's name. But back when I used to come to

0:36:32.200 --> 0:36:35.160
<v Speaker 1>the games in the seventies, the team doctor for the

0:36:35.200 --> 0:36:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys wore the exact same was it was doctor uh,

0:36:39.480 --> 0:36:44.160
<v Speaker 1>doctor Knight Night, Doctor Knight, doctor Knight. I don't want

0:36:44.160 --> 0:36:46.440
<v Speaker 1>to get the man's no. I think that he was

0:36:46.480 --> 0:36:50.080
<v Speaker 1>Tom Landry's guy and he wore the hat. But I

0:36:50.160 --> 0:36:54.160
<v Speaker 1>think doctor Cooper said it's one of those he honored LBJA. Yeah,

0:36:54.160 --> 0:36:55.920
<v Speaker 1>he wears in honor of him, you know, and that's

0:36:55.920 --> 0:36:58.640
<v Speaker 1>just that's that shows you the respect he has. But yeah,

0:36:58.640 --> 0:37:03.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Jerry Jones has made some incredible moves, you know,

0:37:03.200 --> 0:37:04.920
<v Speaker 1>and when we want to be critical and we want

0:37:04.920 --> 0:37:07.359
<v Speaker 1>to point the finger of things he's made, he did

0:37:07.360 --> 0:37:10.120
<v Speaker 1>everything he could to try and make this team go him.

0:37:10.320 --> 0:37:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Will McClay, Steven give Jason Garrett quick. Jason Garrett has

0:37:15.040 --> 0:37:18.120
<v Speaker 1>a voice in that room too. You know, this season

0:37:18.200 --> 0:37:22.200
<v Speaker 1>and it's not it didn't unfold identically, but it ended

0:37:22.280 --> 0:37:25.320
<v Speaker 1>sort of the same. Just reminded me of nineteen ninety

0:37:25.400 --> 0:37:30.759
<v Speaker 1>one and before right before the season started, by the way,

0:37:30.800 --> 0:37:33.720
<v Speaker 1>they traded for Steve Berlin. Yeah, it was like, okay,

0:37:33.719 --> 0:37:37.839
<v Speaker 1>backup Correadors from the Raiders. He was crossways with Al

0:37:37.960 --> 0:37:40.200
<v Speaker 1>Davis and Davis trying to get rid of him, and

0:37:40.520 --> 0:37:42.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember what they might have given up, a

0:37:42.320 --> 0:37:45.720
<v Speaker 1>fourth round draft choice something like that. Anyway, they started

0:37:45.760 --> 0:37:49.240
<v Speaker 1>off pretty well. I believe they were five and two,

0:37:50.040 --> 0:37:52.319
<v Speaker 1>and then they ended up six and five, and they

0:37:52.320 --> 0:37:55.359
<v Speaker 1>had three road games in a row, and all the

0:37:55.400 --> 0:37:59.040
<v Speaker 1>anal people were you can't you're done if you got

0:37:59.239 --> 0:38:02.440
<v Speaker 1>what play three road games in a row, and they

0:38:02.520 --> 0:38:06.040
<v Speaker 1>lost the first two, one of them I believe it

0:38:06.080 --> 0:38:09.200
<v Speaker 1>was to Houston in overtime, and the last one was

0:38:09.320 --> 0:38:14.480
<v Speaker 1>at Washington and Troy Aikman suffers the spring knee in

0:38:14.880 --> 0:38:18.279
<v Speaker 1>top top the early part of the third quarter and

0:38:18.480 --> 0:38:22.399
<v Speaker 1>Burline comes in. They win that game, and then they

0:38:22.440 --> 0:38:25.839
<v Speaker 1>went on won the last four. So they ended up

0:38:25.880 --> 0:38:28.600
<v Speaker 1>with a five game winning streak to finish eleven and

0:38:28.760 --> 0:38:32.200
<v Speaker 1>five and went on the road to Chicago, where they

0:38:32.239 --> 0:38:35.400
<v Speaker 1>had no business winning, and they beat the Bears seventeen

0:38:35.520 --> 0:38:39.960
<v Speaker 1>thirteen with Burline at quarterback. And so they kind of

0:38:40.120 --> 0:38:43.279
<v Speaker 1>dug themselves out of a hole that they created and

0:38:43.600 --> 0:38:46.520
<v Speaker 1>on the strength of a trade that they made early

0:38:46.600 --> 0:38:49.440
<v Speaker 1>in the year to bring Burline in, who played awfully

0:38:49.480 --> 0:38:52.879
<v Speaker 1>well down that five game winning streak. All you can ask,

0:38:53.239 --> 0:38:54.920
<v Speaker 1>if you're a fan of this team, all you can

0:38:54.960 --> 0:38:58.480
<v Speaker 1>ask is your front office give you hope, get you know.

0:38:58.520 --> 0:39:00.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, and a lot of people will very critical

0:39:00.600 --> 0:39:03.920
<v Speaker 1>of the Amari Cooper trade, but it was it was

0:39:03.960 --> 0:39:07.040
<v Speaker 1>the right trade at the right time. I mean, it's

0:39:07.320 --> 0:39:09.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Cowboys are gonna pick in the twenties now,

0:39:09.760 --> 0:39:11.680
<v Speaker 1>I trust you. And we start the draft show coming

0:39:11.760 --> 0:39:14.759
<v Speaker 1>up here and you know, another month where there's not

0:39:14.760 --> 0:39:16.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a player on that board at twenty five.

0:39:16.600 --> 0:39:19.239
<v Speaker 1>That's better than Amari Cooper. I'm just telling you right now.

0:39:19.320 --> 0:39:21.200
<v Speaker 1>And it's for the future. It's for the future. It

0:39:21.200 --> 0:39:23.000
<v Speaker 1>will be twenty five next year when he's playing with

0:39:23.000 --> 0:39:24.719
<v Speaker 1>that part. I can hear. I can hear our buddy

0:39:24.760 --> 0:39:27.640
<v Speaker 1>Steven Thomas out there right now. Ah. You know what, though,

0:39:27.760 --> 0:39:30.000
<v Speaker 1>you gave up the money, you gave up the you know,

0:39:30.080 --> 0:39:32.560
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, but you gotta do what you have

0:39:32.640 --> 0:39:35.000
<v Speaker 1>to do right now, and you're giving yourself a chance. Yeah.

0:39:35.040 --> 0:39:37.680
<v Speaker 1>This season, And another comparison to ninety one, that was

0:39:37.680 --> 0:39:40.399
<v Speaker 1>a pretty young football team, right, very young. I mean

0:39:40.520 --> 0:39:43.840
<v Speaker 1>we're talking you had gone three and thirteen one in

0:39:44.000 --> 0:39:48.239
<v Speaker 1>fifteen seven and nine and they were one win away

0:39:48.480 --> 0:39:51.239
<v Speaker 1>in ninety from going from the worst team in the

0:39:51.320 --> 0:39:55.279
<v Speaker 1>league into the playoffs. Yeah. Actually they didn't even need

0:39:55.320 --> 0:39:58.480
<v Speaker 1>to win. If if the I believe it was the

0:39:58.520 --> 0:40:00.600
<v Speaker 1>Saints had lost the last game him of the year.

0:40:01.680 --> 0:40:03.919
<v Speaker 1>They were going to the playoffs at seven and nine,

0:40:04.680 --> 0:40:09.160
<v Speaker 1>and everybody was at Cowboy Cafe watching the game big screen,

0:40:09.200 --> 0:40:13.640
<v Speaker 1>the big screens, Yeah, yelling the old Cowboy Cafe players,

0:40:13.680 --> 0:40:15.720
<v Speaker 1>players were all in. It made it made it easy

0:40:15.760 --> 0:40:17.480
<v Speaker 1>for me because I had to do a story after

0:40:17.520 --> 0:40:20.000
<v Speaker 1>the game, and I had everybody there with me. I

0:40:20.040 --> 0:40:23.719
<v Speaker 1>think I showed up there last night on my way

0:40:23.760 --> 0:40:26.280
<v Speaker 1>home hang over the movie. I just kind of walked

0:40:26.280 --> 0:40:30.840
<v Speaker 1>in there. I think Cowboys Cafe is long gone. It

0:40:31.000 --> 0:40:32.919
<v Speaker 1>is long gone. All right, let's take our final break

0:40:32.960 --> 0:40:35.359
<v Speaker 1>and during the break we'll try to piece together night,

0:40:35.360 --> 0:40:37.520
<v Speaker 1>we'll try to figure out what happened. We come back,

0:40:37.560 --> 0:40:41.440
<v Speaker 1>we'll finish breaking up. We're breaking down Cowboys in the

0:40:41.440 --> 0:40:44.399
<v Speaker 1>wildcard round, Giants too a little bit, Giants a little bit,

0:40:44.440 --> 0:40:46.400
<v Speaker 1>and maybe how far this team can go. Next on

0:40:46.480 --> 0:40:49.480

<v Speaker 1>refused to say his last name. Oh it's the uh too. Yeah,

0:44:59.560 --> 0:45:02.200
<v Speaker 1>there you go. Yeah. Yeah, and you got it out

0:45:02.200 --> 0:45:04.160
<v Speaker 1>well enough. We won't ask you to say it again.

0:45:06.680 --> 0:45:09.680
<v Speaker 1>Defensive tackle. Yeah, he gives him a good look from

0:45:09.680 --> 0:45:11.759
<v Speaker 1>what I've told. You know, he's a really harm duel

0:45:11.840 --> 0:45:15.160
<v Speaker 1>skyer reporting this young man really quick, like a like

0:45:15.200 --> 0:45:17.160
<v Speaker 1>a you know, one of those guys that kind of

0:45:17.160 --> 0:45:19.959
<v Speaker 1>a high motor high effort. You always the tag guys

0:45:20.000 --> 0:45:22.440
<v Speaker 1>like that. But this guy's got a really good first step.

0:45:22.480 --> 0:45:24.040
<v Speaker 1>So what he does. They put him out there and

0:45:24.040 --> 0:45:26.000
<v Speaker 1>he just he goes flying to the corner and like

0:45:26.040 --> 0:45:28.440
<v Speaker 1>guys like Lyle Collins, I mean, they're they're having to

0:45:28.440 --> 0:45:31.680
<v Speaker 1>defend their corner and you know, you know, I've heard

0:45:31.800 --> 0:45:34.800
<v Speaker 1>if you watch like people practice against Tyren Smith, Tyron

0:45:34.880 --> 0:45:38.160
<v Speaker 1>Smith wants him to go like full, full tilt against him.

0:45:38.719 --> 0:45:40.640
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't. He's not like a brother in law guy

0:45:40.640 --> 0:45:42.319
<v Speaker 1>where he's like, Okay, I'm just gonna hey, take it

0:45:42.320 --> 0:45:44.319
<v Speaker 1>easy on me kind of guy. I mean, they go

0:45:44.440 --> 0:45:47.520
<v Speaker 1>full rep and he's kind of you know, it's it's

0:45:47.560 --> 0:45:51.440
<v Speaker 1>impressive guy, all pro tackle and he's the two is

0:45:51.480 --> 0:45:53.600
<v Speaker 1>like trying to beat him on a speed rush and

0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:56.120
<v Speaker 1>he's you know, walling him off and all that. I mean,

0:45:56.239 --> 0:45:59.319
<v Speaker 1>can you pick the guy out of a lineup? I

0:45:59.320 --> 0:46:02.319
<v Speaker 1>don't can't. I don't think I can. He's number sixty five,

0:46:02.360 --> 0:46:06.960
<v Speaker 1>I know that. How about Ony Amoli? Yeah, who are you?

0:46:07.640 --> 0:46:09.880
<v Speaker 1>He's the local guy too, is he? Yeah, he's from

0:46:09.920 --> 0:46:14.000
<v Speaker 1>the area. They just signed him recently. Yeah, he's a sinner, right, Yeah,

0:46:14.040 --> 0:46:17.760
<v Speaker 1>he's number sixty five. Sixty seven sixty seven. He's a center,

0:46:18.239 --> 0:46:22.320
<v Speaker 1>play center, and he's like the swing center guards. What

0:46:22.480 --> 0:46:27.480
<v Speaker 1>about Cody Wickman? Cody Whickman is another offensive lineman guard

0:46:27.719 --> 0:46:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Francene State. Yeah. He I think he's been here the

0:46:30.239 --> 0:46:32.880
<v Speaker 1>whole time. The Mariposa, California, all right, it's not like

0:46:32.920 --> 0:46:35.719
<v Speaker 1>a pretty place, Mariposa. I mean the first guys I

0:46:35.800 --> 0:46:37.879
<v Speaker 1>kind of recognized, but I got down to those last

0:46:37.920 --> 0:46:40.480
<v Speaker 1>three or four and it was like, who's hey, practice

0:46:40.480 --> 0:46:45.719

<v Speaker 1>oh help me? Mickey and Rob the kid that was

0:46:48.719 --> 0:46:53.000
<v Speaker 1>traded before we went on the air Houston preseason game

0:46:53.480 --> 0:46:55.360
<v Speaker 1>and he went to Kansas City. They traded him for

0:46:55.400 --> 0:47:02.759
<v Speaker 1>the guard he started at corner Standrick West Is that right? Yeah? Exactly? Wow?

0:47:02.960 --> 0:47:06.360
<v Speaker 1>Is that right? Yeah? I can't It feels like a

0:47:06.440 --> 0:47:09.360
<v Speaker 1>year ago. I can't argue, but he if it's wrong, Ward,

0:47:09.400 --> 0:47:12.560
<v Speaker 1>it was Ward? Ward? Was this not west Ward? I

0:47:12.600 --> 0:47:14.200
<v Speaker 1>can't say the first name the right way, but it's

0:47:14.280 --> 0:47:18.160
<v Speaker 1>Ward is his last name. It can't. In Kansas City

0:47:18.200 --> 0:47:20.480
<v Speaker 1>they were trying to move guy. I mean the Cowboys

0:47:20.520 --> 0:47:23.720
<v Speaker 1>were trying to move that Cowboys wanted to keep the guy,

0:47:23.800 --> 0:47:28.240
<v Speaker 1>and then they ended up in training for Anger. Yeah. Anger, Yeah, yeah,

0:47:28.280 --> 0:47:31.400
<v Speaker 1>the guard who got hurt like the second practice he

0:47:31.480 --> 0:47:35.880
<v Speaker 1>was here. Doesn't seemed like forever ago, yes, but but

0:47:35.880 --> 0:47:40.440
<v Speaker 1>but he started. He started last week for Kansas City

0:47:40.800 --> 0:47:43.640
<v Speaker 1>in the in the game. Yeah, everybody liked him a lot.

0:47:44.160 --> 0:47:47.840
<v Speaker 1>He was a he was a big time players ward

0:47:48.520 --> 0:47:50.720
<v Speaker 1>dB and he had he had a good, good camp.

0:47:50.800 --> 0:47:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah that's what I'm saying. Him in a lumba and

0:47:53.040 --> 0:47:55.560
<v Speaker 1>those guys. Yeah, they really liked those guys, and and

0:47:55.680 --> 0:47:58.160
<v Speaker 1>they ended up the Chiefs got him, and he's been

0:47:58.200 --> 0:48:00.000
<v Speaker 1>with them the whole year, and he actually had to start.

0:47:59.840 --> 0:48:06.240
<v Speaker 1>They remember Anger's first day, first day. First name, Oh

0:48:06.360 --> 0:48:11.880
<v Speaker 1>Parker Parker. Yeah, I was gonna say Pete Parker Parker.

0:48:12.440 --> 0:48:14.719
<v Speaker 1>So they it's a long season, isn't it. Oh? They

0:48:15.040 --> 0:48:19.120
<v Speaker 1>So they took CJ. They activated CJ. Goodwin, Yes, yes,

0:48:19.200 --> 0:48:24.279
<v Speaker 1>been on reserve, injured reserve flyer. Get another, Yeah, they

0:48:24.280 --> 0:48:26.240
<v Speaker 1>could use one to get down there and cover punts.

0:48:26.360 --> 0:48:28.880
<v Speaker 1>How about kicks? How about kickoffs? If people are bringing

0:48:28.880 --> 0:48:31.360
<v Speaker 1>the ball out of there? My gosh, but they've exposed

0:48:31.440 --> 0:48:34.160
<v Speaker 1>Lance Lenore. Yeah, we'll know today, we'll know about that

0:48:34.320 --> 0:48:37.040
<v Speaker 1>coming up three o'clock today. How do you feel about

0:48:37.040 --> 0:48:39.279
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Brown this week or in the next couple of

0:48:39.320 --> 0:48:41.920
<v Speaker 1>weeks with his back. I think maybe in two weeks

0:48:41.920 --> 0:48:45.239
<v Speaker 1>he's good. They they seem encouraged when at the end

0:48:45.280 --> 0:48:46.880
<v Speaker 1>of the week they just thought it was best to

0:48:46.960 --> 0:48:49.839
<v Speaker 1>let him rest up and try to get that thing

0:48:49.920 --> 0:48:52.799
<v Speaker 1>under control. But they were feeling better about it, so

0:48:53.680 --> 0:48:57.240
<v Speaker 1>but not good enough to play him all right, Bryan

0:48:57.280 --> 0:49:00.919
<v Speaker 1>brought us you spent time on Christmas Day breaking down

0:49:01.160 --> 0:49:02.919
<v Speaker 1>the New York Giants. I did look at the Giants

0:49:02.920 --> 0:49:05.080
<v Speaker 1>little because I hadn't seen him since week two, and

0:49:05.080 --> 0:49:07.040
<v Speaker 1>they're they're a little bit different team now than they

0:49:07.080 --> 0:49:11.080
<v Speaker 1>once were. Uh. They've kind of made some changes. You know,

0:49:11.440 --> 0:49:16.400
<v Speaker 1>the right tackle is now Chad Wheeler. They they've moved

0:49:16.440 --> 0:49:21.440
<v Speaker 1>on uh since and that's really This offensive line still

0:49:22.040 --> 0:49:23.800
<v Speaker 1>is the problem. You know. Eli Manning is still the

0:49:23.800 --> 0:49:26.200
<v Speaker 1>trigger man. Se Quon Barkleys everything we thought he was

0:49:26.239 --> 0:49:29.160
<v Speaker 1>going to be. They throw him the ball, They when

0:49:29.200 --> 0:49:31.719
<v Speaker 1>they hand it to him, he makes people miss. They've

0:49:31.760 --> 0:49:33.960
<v Speaker 1>been playing without Odell Beckham the last couple of weeks.

0:49:34.000 --> 0:49:36.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if Odell Beckham will be back this week.

0:49:36.480 --> 0:49:39.040
<v Speaker 1>They might just uh, you know, but again they've had

0:49:39.080 --> 0:49:42.160
<v Speaker 1>some problems with you know, Nate Solder. They gave Nate

0:49:42.239 --> 0:49:45.879
<v Speaker 1>Solder a bunch of money for you know, the from

0:49:45.880 --> 0:49:49.680
<v Speaker 1>the Patriots to play left tackle and he's had his struggles.

0:49:49.840 --> 0:49:52.759
<v Speaker 1>Will Hernandez looks better. They drafted him from UTEP. He's

0:49:52.800 --> 0:49:57.319
<v Speaker 1>playing the left guard. Uh, with Spencer Spencer Pulleys now

0:49:57.360 --> 0:50:00.320
<v Speaker 1>the center. They've when the last time to CA always

0:50:00.320 --> 0:50:03.480
<v Speaker 1>played John Greco was the center. So they've they've made

0:50:03.520 --> 0:50:05.400
<v Speaker 1>some switches in the offensive line. I thought for a

0:50:05.440 --> 0:50:06.840
<v Speaker 1>while there they were going to be good enough to

0:50:06.880 --> 0:50:08.319
<v Speaker 1>be eight and eight. You know, they were kind of

0:50:08.320 --> 0:50:09.640
<v Speaker 1>making a little bit of a run there, and then

0:50:09.640 --> 0:50:12.959
<v Speaker 1>they last couple of weeks they've kind of spit the bit. So,

0:50:13.560 --> 0:50:15.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, we'll see. We'll see how they play it

0:50:15.160 --> 0:50:18.920
<v Speaker 1>with Manning. They on defense though a lot of the

0:50:18.960 --> 0:50:22.719
<v Speaker 1>same guys still. It's not you know, Snacks Harrison is

0:50:22.760 --> 0:50:26.239
<v Speaker 1>no longer there keeping on this BJ Hill from North

0:50:26.280 --> 0:50:29.400
<v Speaker 1>Carolina State. He's listed as a defensive end, but he

0:50:29.440 --> 0:50:31.279
<v Speaker 1>plays as a defensive tackle. He's one of my under

0:50:31.280 --> 0:50:34.680
<v Speaker 1>the radar guys I wrote about today. I like him.

0:50:34.680 --> 0:50:36.719
<v Speaker 1>I think he's a better he's playing really kind of

0:50:36.719 --> 0:50:38.560
<v Speaker 1>out of position. They play a three or four front,

0:50:38.960 --> 0:50:41.440
<v Speaker 1>and so he plays like a defensive end, but he's

0:50:41.480 --> 0:50:44.759
<v Speaker 1>really more of a defensive tackle, and so he's he's

0:50:44.760 --> 0:50:47.880
<v Speaker 1>a rookie that's getting a start for him. Olivier Vernon

0:50:48.000 --> 0:50:50.320
<v Speaker 1>is still there. Part BW Web or old Buddy b W.

0:50:50.480 --> 0:50:54.480
<v Speaker 1>Webb is playing corner for them right now. Landing Collins

0:50:54.520 --> 0:50:57.919
<v Speaker 1>is still there and Norris Jenkins. So yeah, they've changed

0:50:57.920 --> 0:51:00.920
<v Speaker 1>a little bit since the last time that the Cowboys

0:51:00.920 --> 0:51:04.080
<v Speaker 1>met him, mainly in the on the offensive side of

0:51:04.080 --> 0:51:08.000
<v Speaker 1>the ball. But it's a you know, I'll tell you

0:51:08.040 --> 0:51:11.160
<v Speaker 1>what though, I'm glad. I'm glad though it didn't come

0:51:11.200 --> 0:51:13.200
<v Speaker 1>down to having to go win a game there, you

0:51:13.239 --> 0:51:16.120
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying. I'm glad it didn't because you

0:51:16.160 --> 0:51:19.319
<v Speaker 1>never know, I mean you just the giants. You know,

0:51:19.600 --> 0:51:22.080
<v Speaker 1>at times they've looked really good and they still I'll

0:51:22.080 --> 0:51:24.720
<v Speaker 1>tell you again, here's another I forgot about Evan Ingram,

0:51:24.800 --> 0:51:28.040
<v Speaker 1>the tight end, and here's another matchup of another tight

0:51:28.160 --> 0:51:29.719
<v Speaker 1>end that they're gonna have to deal with. You know,

0:51:29.760 --> 0:51:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Evan Ingram had seven catches the last time these two

0:51:32.719 --> 0:51:35.399
<v Speaker 1>teams met and went and watched him, and primarily there

0:51:35.440 --> 0:51:38.520
<v Speaker 1>was some zone coverage with Mickey Hates and he's right

0:51:38.560 --> 0:51:40.400
<v Speaker 1>about that. And then there was Jeff Heath kind of

0:51:40.440 --> 0:51:42.600
<v Speaker 1>taking him with a couple of routes and stuff. So

0:51:43.120 --> 0:51:46.399
<v Speaker 1>if no Beckham, then he's gonna be your primary guy.

0:51:46.520 --> 0:51:48.560
<v Speaker 1>Him and Barkley are gonna be the primary guys that

0:51:48.600 --> 0:51:50.600
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna have to deal with. And I'm saying this

0:51:50.680 --> 0:51:53.920
<v Speaker 1>in a way of young guys playing. Okay, let's see, Okay,

0:51:53.960 --> 0:51:57.080
<v Speaker 1>it came on Frasier. Let's see a cover ingram. You know.

0:51:57.400 --> 0:51:59.239
<v Speaker 1>That's kind of how I'm looking at this game. How

0:51:59.560 --> 0:52:04.680
<v Speaker 1>how are the how's? How's a Randy Gregory gonna rush

0:52:04.680 --> 0:52:06.960
<v Speaker 1>against Snate Solar? You know? I want to see those

0:52:07.040 --> 0:52:09.200
<v Speaker 1>kind of things, you know, and see if these young

0:52:09.280 --> 0:52:12.439
<v Speaker 1>kids can can make some plays. I'm trying to think

0:52:12.440 --> 0:52:14.480
<v Speaker 1>of the last time. I think it was twenty eleven,

0:52:15.480 --> 0:52:18.480
<v Speaker 1>they went to the Meadowlands having to win the game

0:52:18.520 --> 0:52:21.680
<v Speaker 1>to get in and they lost, and I think the

0:52:21.680 --> 0:52:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Giants went on to win the Super Bowl that year.

0:52:25.239 --> 0:52:27.879
<v Speaker 1>It's a very different. It's a situation you don't want

0:52:27.920 --> 0:52:30.000
<v Speaker 1>to be in, no because it's a division rival, and

0:52:30.040 --> 0:52:32.920
<v Speaker 1>you flip a coin and anything can happen and the

0:52:32.960 --> 0:52:36.040
<v Speaker 1>tenor yeah, feeling around this game is much different than

0:52:36.080 --> 0:52:38.759
<v Speaker 1>it could have been this week. Yeah, you you you

0:52:38.800 --> 0:52:41.400
<v Speaker 1>just don't want to have to go and especially if

0:52:41.400 --> 0:52:44.520
<v Speaker 1>the conditions are calling for thirty four degrees or twenty

0:52:44.840 --> 0:52:47.799
<v Speaker 1>thirty one degrees in snow, you know you don't. You

0:52:47.800 --> 0:52:49.759
<v Speaker 1>don't want to have to deal with that, you know,

0:52:49.800 --> 0:52:51.840
<v Speaker 1>and you don't want to have to deal with with

0:52:52.040 --> 0:52:55.120
<v Speaker 1>Saquon Barkley and if he gets one hundred and fifty yards,

0:52:55.200 --> 0:52:57.800
<v Speaker 1>so what you know, Okay, you know we'll see you

0:52:57.800 --> 0:52:59.879
<v Speaker 1>in next year. You know, we'll worry about you next year.

0:53:00.640 --> 0:53:04.960
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, it's uh, it does. Division games are tough,

0:53:05.040 --> 0:53:07.000
<v Speaker 1>and you know, the Giants. I'm sure the Giants are

0:53:07.040 --> 0:53:09.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna try, and you know the Pat Shermer, the coach there,

0:53:09.640 --> 0:53:12.359
<v Speaker 1>and you know, they don't want to lose. They want

0:53:12.360 --> 0:53:14.080
<v Speaker 1>to finish on a strong I mean, they've they've had

0:53:14.120 --> 0:53:16.040
<v Speaker 1>two bad games in a row here where they were

0:53:16.120 --> 0:53:19.200
<v Speaker 1>actually playing pretty well and then and then they they lose.

0:53:19.320 --> 0:53:21.439
<v Speaker 1>So I'm sure they want to finish on a high note.

0:53:21.440 --> 0:53:23.440
<v Speaker 1>And you know Jason Garrett, I'm sure he wants to

0:53:23.440 --> 0:53:25.600
<v Speaker 1>finish on a high note. But we've talked about this

0:53:25.680 --> 0:53:28.520
<v Speaker 1>at length. At what cost? You know what costs? Jason

0:53:28.560 --> 0:53:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Garrett will play all the games, will play him. You know,

0:53:30.760 --> 0:53:32.920
<v Speaker 1>he'll tell you there's only sixteen of these, you know,

0:53:32.920 --> 0:53:36.279
<v Speaker 1>And and he's not wrong, not wrong what you're looking at, Mick.

0:53:36.400 --> 0:53:38.759
<v Speaker 1>I was trying to see how many catches Ingram had,

0:53:38.920 --> 0:53:41.200
<v Speaker 1>but he's not listed in here. I don't see it.

0:53:41.600 --> 0:53:44.120
<v Speaker 1>He's had, he's been, He's missed time, Mickey, so he's

0:53:44.120 --> 0:53:47.000
<v Speaker 1>not gonna be. He's missed like three or four games.

0:53:47.239 --> 0:53:49.360
<v Speaker 1>There was stretch where he missed like three games and

0:53:49.400 --> 0:53:51.160
<v Speaker 1>then he's just now come back. But I know he

0:53:51.160 --> 0:53:53.640
<v Speaker 1>gets the Cowboys. I watched him play specifically because I

0:53:53.680 --> 0:53:56.080
<v Speaker 1>want to see how they played him. And that's where

0:53:56.080 --> 0:53:58.840
<v Speaker 1>he was seven targets, seven catches, his high number. His

0:53:58.920 --> 0:54:02.920
<v Speaker 1>high number was tennis. See, he had ten, ten targets

0:54:02.960 --> 0:54:05.000
<v Speaker 1>and eight catches in that game. And that was just

0:54:05.080 --> 0:54:07.839
<v Speaker 1>recently here. So so if I'm reading at this ride,

0:54:07.880 --> 0:54:10.360
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't even have thirty seven catches. Yeah, he's but

0:54:10.400 --> 0:54:13.960
<v Speaker 1>he's missed probably five games this year with because of injuries.

0:54:14.120 --> 0:54:20.520
<v Speaker 1>But you know whose second m whose second guy named Ertz? Yeah,

0:54:21.000 --> 0:54:24.399
<v Speaker 1>and he broke Jason Witten's single season tight end record. Yeah,

0:54:24.600 --> 0:54:27.000
<v Speaker 1>did he? Yeah, this past week? How many does he have?

0:54:27.080 --> 0:54:29.440
<v Speaker 1>One hundred and what I think I saw one hundred

0:54:29.440 --> 0:54:32.720
<v Speaker 1>and thirteen? What did Witten have? He has one hundred

0:54:32.719 --> 0:54:36.560
<v Speaker 1>and thirteen. He's second in the league to Thomas New

0:54:36.680 --> 0:54:38.759
<v Speaker 1>Orleans with one hundred and twenty. Witten head I think

0:54:38.760 --> 0:54:41.080
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and ten. He had one hundred catch season. Yeah,

0:54:41.120 --> 0:54:42.960
<v Speaker 1>I remember got like a ninety. He was in the

0:54:43.000 --> 0:54:45.279
<v Speaker 1>nineties a couple of times. Yeah, all right, Yeah, you

0:54:45.320 --> 0:54:48.160
<v Speaker 1>mentioned the Giants offensive line, and obviously that's been a

0:54:48.200 --> 0:54:50.080
<v Speaker 1>struggle for them. Let's see if these young guys can

0:54:50.120 --> 0:54:52.680
<v Speaker 1>get some pressure, that'd be good Taco and those guys. Yeah,

0:54:52.800 --> 0:54:54.520
<v Speaker 1>why not? He got me thinking. You know, Taco has

0:54:54.520 --> 0:54:56.719
<v Speaker 1>been out, he hadn't played for a few weeks. Yeah.

0:54:56.719 --> 0:54:58.960
<v Speaker 1>And we had a mail back question on Randy Gregory.

0:54:58.960 --> 0:55:03.480
<v Speaker 1>He's playing six acts in thirteen games, and just the more,

0:55:03.600 --> 0:55:05.960
<v Speaker 1>ask more question, ask Mickey the same question. Well, the

0:55:06.000 --> 0:55:09.160
<v Speaker 1>more experience he gets, the better. Yeah, right, just let

0:55:09.200 --> 0:55:12.920
<v Speaker 1>him keep playing experiencing things. We had a question on

0:55:13.000 --> 0:55:15.520
<v Speaker 1>before we get out of here, Randy Gregory, do you

0:55:15.560 --> 0:55:19.840
<v Speaker 1>think he can be consistently dominant like we saw against

0:55:19.880 --> 0:55:22.520
<v Speaker 1>the Bucks last week. Or you think he's going to

0:55:22.600 --> 0:55:25.239
<v Speaker 1>be more of a good player, just a good player? Yeah,

0:55:25.360 --> 0:55:28.000
<v Speaker 1>as his ceiling. The question is good player or will

0:55:28.040 --> 0:55:30.280
<v Speaker 1>he be a guy that I'm not saying that the Marcus,

0:55:30.480 --> 0:55:32.399
<v Speaker 1>but I'm just saying, you know, a higher a guy

0:55:32.440 --> 0:55:35.960
<v Speaker 1>that's gonna get eight nine sacks a year. So I'm

0:55:35.960 --> 0:55:41.879
<v Speaker 1>trying to remember how much did he play last year? No? No,

0:55:42.000 --> 0:55:45.920
<v Speaker 1>he did not. No, he basically didn't played one game.

0:55:47.040 --> 0:55:49.520
<v Speaker 1>That's why you're trying to gauge where he's gonna be.

0:55:49.880 --> 0:55:56.400
<v Speaker 1>He got to training camp this year, right, uh some point? Yes, Yeah,

0:55:56.440 --> 0:55:58.799
<v Speaker 1>he was there for the start of yamp Yes, yes,

0:55:59.040 --> 0:56:01.399
<v Speaker 1>I can't remember, but he did practice right off the bat. Yeah.

0:56:01.440 --> 0:56:03.520
<v Speaker 1>I think he missed most of the offseason. Is that right?

0:56:03.560 --> 0:56:06.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to He was not reinstated until training camp. Okay, So,

0:56:07.520 --> 0:56:12.280
<v Speaker 1>and he's done this with that right, watch out for him.

0:56:12.320 --> 0:56:15.880
<v Speaker 1>If he keeps himself on the straight and narrow. It

0:56:15.960 --> 0:56:18.600
<v Speaker 1>seems to be on a pretty good path right now.

0:56:19.520 --> 0:56:24.440
<v Speaker 1>M boy. What he can do is it look the

0:56:24.480 --> 0:56:28.520
<v Speaker 1>sack fumble. Yeah, he got ridden off the play, did

0:56:28.560 --> 0:56:31.560
<v Speaker 1>not give up, No, not as not like he's pretty boy.

0:56:31.640 --> 0:56:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Out there. I got all these great skills. He came

0:56:34.360 --> 0:56:37.719
<v Speaker 1>storming back to get Jamis Winston from behind. Yeah, and

0:56:37.920 --> 0:56:41.319
<v Speaker 1>farantee Winston probably thought that guy's long gone. Well, let

0:56:41.320 --> 0:56:42.919
<v Speaker 1>me tell you this. I'm gonna break that play down

0:56:42.960 --> 0:56:48.120
<v Speaker 1>for you today. They were they were Deshaun Jackson was

0:56:48.320 --> 0:56:50.960
<v Speaker 1>wide open and that's who he was loading up to

0:56:51.000 --> 0:56:54.280
<v Speaker 1>throw the ball too. He Jackson had beaten a Woozier

0:56:54.520 --> 0:56:56.600
<v Speaker 1>on like he was gonna run the slant. They tried

0:56:56.600 --> 0:56:59.759
<v Speaker 1>to pick a Woozier and then Jackson broke off the

0:57:00.160 --> 0:57:02.359
<v Speaker 1>went up the field. A Woozier was a good five

0:57:02.440 --> 0:57:06.520
<v Speaker 1>yards away from him, and your quarterback was loading up

0:57:06.520 --> 0:57:08.279
<v Speaker 1>to throw him the ball right down the middle of

0:57:08.280 --> 0:57:10.640
<v Speaker 1>the field when Randy Gregory hid him from behind. I'll

0:57:10.680 --> 0:57:12.160
<v Speaker 1>break it down for you guys to day and Dallas,

0:57:12.600 --> 0:57:15.560
<v Speaker 1>you know what. And I just hope he's gotten to

0:57:15.640 --> 0:57:19.120
<v Speaker 1>the point where he's enjoying himself because this has been

0:57:19.200 --> 0:57:22.800
<v Speaker 1>such a struggle. Sure, And I can't remember if I

0:57:22.920 --> 0:57:25.520
<v Speaker 1>mentioned this on Monday or not, but after the game

0:57:26.000 --> 0:57:28.919
<v Speaker 1>I got in there late after listening to Jason he said,

0:57:28.960 --> 0:57:32.400
<v Speaker 1>evidently he had already talked and I didn't hear it.

0:57:32.400 --> 0:57:35.040
<v Speaker 1>And I went up to him and he was I said,

0:57:35.120 --> 0:57:37.480
<v Speaker 1>come on, man, he goes, yeah, I don't like to talk.

0:57:37.840 --> 0:57:39.600
<v Speaker 1>I just want to play. And I said, well, there's

0:57:39.600 --> 0:57:41.240
<v Speaker 1>something to be said for that. I said, but you

0:57:41.280 --> 0:57:44.280
<v Speaker 1>need to enjoy this, you know. And he's been a

0:57:44.280 --> 0:57:46.960
<v Speaker 1>long journey for him, many long journey, and you just

0:57:47.000 --> 0:57:50.120
<v Speaker 1>hope he's enjoying it. Yeah, like enjoying it to the

0:57:50.200 --> 0:57:53.960
<v Speaker 1>point where now I can take care of the other

0:57:53.960 --> 0:57:56.720
<v Speaker 1>stuff because I love this so much. And that was

0:57:56.800 --> 0:57:59.720
<v Speaker 1>Marinelli's deal when they drafted him. Yeah, it was like,

0:58:00.200 --> 0:58:03.439
<v Speaker 1>if the man loves football, he'll do what he needs

0:58:03.480 --> 0:58:07.520
<v Speaker 1>to do to continue playing. And maybe he's gotten to

0:58:07.640 --> 0:58:09.520
<v Speaker 1>that point. He's one of a lot of young guys

0:58:09.520 --> 0:58:11.480
<v Speaker 1>stepping up for this team and they got one more

0:58:11.520 --> 0:58:13.920
<v Speaker 1>regular season game to go. We'll be back on Thursday
