1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,360 Speaker 1: Let's talk to Jerry Jones about all these topics now 2 00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: right here on the Jerry Jones Show, brought you by Ford, 3 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: the official vehicle of the Dallas Cowboys. Ford's the best 4 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,479 Speaker 1: in Texas. And a good morning, sir. How you doing? 5 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: You bet forward is and I'm doing great and to 6 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 1: be on with you guys. Real excited about this crip. 7 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: It's a tough one. I don't know if there's a 8 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: tougher place to play to win, of course, and then Seattle, 9 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 1: but here we go. Yeah, how tough do you think 10 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,560 Speaker 1: they are? They've lost some guys. Now, Jerry, can you 11 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 1: tell us of what your thoughts on how good the 12 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,919 Speaker 1: Seahawks are this year? Well, we know how well coached 13 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: they are and have been and will be. I really 14 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: admire the organization a lot. And then they of course 15 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: have the allowedest place to play, the most disruptive for 16 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: a boosting team place to play, I think in sport, 17 00:00:55,400 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: and you just about have to prepare you entire play communication. 18 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: Of course, you have to play it with a different 19 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: mindset and different signals. Now, of course, last big win 20 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: up there twenty fourteen, with that amazing finish and all 21 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: that Terrence Williams making a catch on fourth and fifteen. 22 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: Now there's reports out that t will is going to 23 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: be suspended two to four games, so you might not 24 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: have them this weekend. Can you tell us anything about that? Yeah, 25 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: I don't know about those supports in terms of accuracy, 26 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 1: but certainly, but who would be missed should we not 27 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: be able to have him? But by the same token, we've, 28 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: as it turns out, got a really I think top 29 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: group numbers I'm referring to of receivers. So will make 30 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: the adjustment it need be. How did those conversations go 31 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: about bringing Bryce Butler back? I know he had some 32 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: things to say about the organization and the coach staff 33 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: on his way out last year, So how does how 34 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: does that go when you guys are kicking around the 35 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: idea of bringing him back? Yeah? I dismiss in general, 36 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: I dismiss, uh go that dialogue when a player is 37 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: coming or leading, or for that matter, coaches as well, 38 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: uh and just as had to dismiss in a family 39 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: or or in general with people that you work with. 40 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: Sometimes you have some emotional uh involvement without a doubt 41 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: in a time when you're making a change, like being 42 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: released or for that matter, being coming on a roster 43 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 1: and so that that dialogue right there doesn't doesn't impact me. 44 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: You know, you have to take with a grain of 45 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: salt what is said publicly as well as privately, and 46 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: so I think Rich dalrymple is it right for us? 47 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 1: He's a head of a pr him. If you don't 48 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: want to read it, don't say it. Well, it's hard 49 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: to do. Now. Going to Sean Lee, you know he's 50 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: been limited in practice this week and obviously throughout his career, 51 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: you know, he's had the injury situation. So how are 52 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: you guys feeling like you're going to handle a Sunday 53 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: with Shawn Lee. Yeah, that'll be a game day decision. 54 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: But we are thinking that he's going to play, and 55 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: no reason right now to not just respect, not respect, 56 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: but just go with what he's saying. And he's, uh, 57 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: he says I'm going to play. We've more than usual, 58 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: We've got some guys that are playing out there with 59 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: them and even behind him that are really doing a 60 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: great job. And so that's a little more comforting. But 61 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: my idea is that he'll be out there something. So, yeah, 62 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: you alluded to it right there. The signing of Joe 63 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: Thomas and then the performance of the rookie vanderash against 64 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: the Giants. Can you talk about, you know, those two 65 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,799 Speaker 1: guys and what you think they're capable of this year. Well, 66 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: I think the best football for Andresh is without a question, 67 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: the next game and onward. It's all ahead of him, 68 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: and he really brings a exceptional dimension to the game. 69 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: I think we're going to benefit from his skills and 70 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: what he's about. Preparation wise, We're going to benefit for 71 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: a long day. But I don't Wilson is doing an 72 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: UT fifty seven good an outstanding back there and as 73 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 1: well as Thomas. So we've got some good players there. 74 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: That's one of the strengths of our team. I line 75 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: back up front seven is really impresses me. Personnel wise, 76 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: numbers wise, we can keep them fresh. I think all 77 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: of that puts us as good as we've gone to 78 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: Seattle with. So, Jerry, I'm going to somewhat give you 79 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: another group here that I think is your best defensive group, 80 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: and that is Byron Jones and Cheeto together. And I'm 81 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: just wondering, You've been doing this for a while with 82 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. Could this be and maybe it's unfair 83 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: because it's only two games together at cornerback. Together Byron 84 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: Jones and Cheeto be your best cornerback combination you've had 85 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: since you've owned the Cowboys. Well, what I like is, 86 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: not only is their play starting to really get you excited, 87 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: they were solid in training camp, but if you look 88 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: at their picture or you look at their pedigree, it 89 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:55,119 Speaker 1: leads to this. It comes to that, well, these guys 90 00:05:55,120 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: are playing at a level that is approaching exceptional and candidly, 91 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: it shouldn't surprise us when we look at what Byron 92 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: Jones is as an athlete, what you hope somebody smart 93 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: and he's extremely smart kind of Bob too as a player. 94 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: And then you turn around and put the coaching that 95 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: to get from Richards, you put that with him, and 96 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: then I'm going to slip over to to a woozy 97 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: who not only look solid at training camp and look 98 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: steady and training camp, but what you saw was what 99 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: you saw in his pedigree, and that is just a 100 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: guy capable of being one of the best at corner 101 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: and then so anyway, that's a mouthful, but those guys 102 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: are playing to the to what you might have expected 103 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: with it and then when you look at Byron Jones 104 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: the last two years playing primarily safety, do you look 105 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 1: back on that now after watching him play cornerback and 106 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: go we made a mistake pushing him to safety. Well, 107 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: not quite that hard on it, however, but the way 108 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: we were trying to play corner and the way we 109 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: were trying to play safety, that might have been a 110 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: better move than it would be the scheme and what 111 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: we're trying to do right now. So I think Byan 112 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: has benefited from the way that we're playing our corners 113 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: and that's showing. So Jared looked like last week that 114 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,239 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott being willing to run the ball a little 115 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,679 Speaker 1: more than we're used to was one of the biggest 116 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: things that kind of got you, guys, go and how 117 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: comfortable are you with your quarterback running more than he has? 118 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: Well quickly anytime the quarterbacks got the ball. And but 119 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: having said that, it's almost elementary that if the quarterback 120 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: can provide had you a running dimension, that it puts 121 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on that defense to account for him. 122 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: And duping was more evident against the Giants than that. 123 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: Nothing was more evident than when we played Carolina and 124 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: Cam Newton ran the ball that was decisive for us. 125 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: It hurt, and so I'm excited that we've got a 126 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: quarterback that can move around. That is, if you will us. 127 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: He's not fragile. He's got the strength that shows the 128 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: way he runs. He runs with strength. I joked to 129 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: early on he runs like the daddy. Having said that, 130 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: I think we should use him. He not only is 131 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: a threat to keep the defense honest, he's the real 132 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,079 Speaker 1: deal when he decided to tuck it up. But I 133 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: run off and our pass option, those are important plays 134 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: for the skills of the players we've got. What could 135 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: you tell us about your thoughts on you know the 136 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: guys he's passing it to, how you're doing moving on 137 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: from the Jason Whitten and does Brian Era and you 138 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 1: know the receivers that you did bring in. How are 139 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: you feeling two games in as far as what they're 140 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: providing for you? Well, of course you're bringing in with vice, 141 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: but whether it is past week and we like bis 142 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:32,199 Speaker 1: we tried to sound by when he went to Arizona, 143 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: so we wanted the feature back then. And I think 144 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: he uh, I think he's added to a receiving calls. 145 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: But I'm really please. I like the way that we 146 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: can threaten a defense with our speed. In particular, it's 147 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: the Jerry Jones show here on the fan. Now, uh now, 148 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: two and one sounds much better than one and two. 149 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: I don't want to overstate it or anything, but how 150 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: important do you think it is to get the result 151 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: that we want to see Sunday afternoon? I'm just glad 152 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: that we can go out there and really as healthy 153 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 1: as we are. And I knock on wood when I 154 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: say that that's every player can make a difference, but 155 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: a boy, that was an important win for us Sunday Sunday. 156 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 1: We've got to forty eight out of the rule. As 157 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: everybody owners, that is about the loss of the win. 158 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: But it's early. But all of these players, I'm winking 159 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: when I say this that I had an old coach 160 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: tell me my first year when I was down and 161 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: I dejected in the dressing room over losing the games 162 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: and winning only one game my first year with the Cowboys, 163 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: this coach came over and said, geez, you gotta remember 164 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 1: one thing. They pay their guys too. On the other 165 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: side of the ball. You didn't get beat in the NFL, 166 00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: And so Consequently, when we step out to Seattle, we've 167 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: got to go long otself. That his window precious, especially 168 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: on the road. Do we expect to see Xavier and 169 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: Randy out there quite a bit? That'll be game time, 170 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: But as we stand here today, then I think that's 171 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: positive that we can count on them. Jered, I know 172 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: you've seen a lot of Big twelve football. They play 173 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 1: some of it at AT and T Stadium. Did you 174 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: catch Baker Mayfield last night? Would you think of that? 175 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: It makes sense. I thought he was the readiest to 176 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 1: play as the quarterbacks drafted early this year. His game 177 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: of what he can do to energize a team can 178 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: make the biggest impact of maybe all the players that 179 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: were drafted. Now, there's some good young quarterbacks that were 180 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: grafted this year and they're going to make an impact 181 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 1: in this league. But I thought he could make the 182 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: earliest impact, and we saw what he's capable of last night. 183 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: He's uh, he just style really can clip the lights 184 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: with Joe. Appreciate you as always, sir. Get him hell 185 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: up there, We'll be pulling for you. You You bet there. 186 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: God sounds great.
