This He's Talking Cowboys, 0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:20.920 screening live from the Dallas Cowboys World Head Hours at 0:00:20.920 --> 0:00:33.600 the Star in Friscott. Now your hosts Mickey Spagnola, Rob Phillips, 0:00:33.600 --> 0:00:38.279 Everson Walls, and Bill Jones. And here we are on 0:00:38.320 --> 0:00:42.839 the morning after the Cowboys beat the Redskins on Sunday, 0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:45.720 and yet the Giants fall to the Eagles. And so 0:00:45.760 --> 0:00:48.440 now the new year comes a couple of days early 0:00:48.680 --> 0:00:51.360 for your Dallas Cowboys as we look ahead to twenty 0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:53.880 twenty and look back at what happened in an eight 0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:57.639 and eight season. This is Talking Cowboys, and we've got 0:00:57.680 --> 0:01:01.560 much to get to here in the SWBC Mortgage Studios 0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:04.960 got the full squads. Start on time, guys, the SEP 0:01:05.160 --> 0:01:08.080 time is killing me. What's going on? Man? I thought 0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:11.480 I was joining a profession sheeted out of five minute 0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:17.720 You ate Nate when you don't so slow starts it 0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:20.560 was the story was one story of the season. Were 0:01:20.680 --> 0:01:25.200 slow Start here on Talking Cowboys also, and so here 0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:28.240 we are and uh, let's I guess go around the 0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:31.160 table and just a quick take on where we are 0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:34.600 right now, Mickey, kind of where you think you would 0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:36.760 be when you have to rely on somebody else to 0:01:36.840 --> 0:01:40.039 do your dirty one. You had your opportunity against the 0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:43.280 Philadelphia Eagles the week before. You didn't cash in. And 0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:47.280 as I say over and over again, the NFL helps 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:50.600 those who helped themselves, and the Cowboys didn't help themselves enough. 0:01:51.240 --> 0:01:59.840 The Giants teased them, uh, tease them almost seventeen goes 0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:03.680 sixteen nine yards two five left in the third and 0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:07.360 it's a tie game. Seventeen seventeen. You're sitting there going, okay, 0:02:07.840 --> 0:02:11.959 maybe chips, maybe everyone will like Jerry Jones at the game. 0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:14.600 Every one's had them. Yeah, split screen. You had one 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:17.000 TV on the we had one TV in the press 0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:19.160 box down there on that game. And then Elliot hit 0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:21.760 the fifty yarder and then the FuMB boy was about 0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:23.600 the same time the Cowboys make a field goal to 0:02:23.680 --> 0:02:28.680 as it was very weird. Every time one very weird, 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:32.040 the other one scored all to the realities or something. Yes, 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:36.040 that was very good, but it did not turn out 0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:40.240 the wind. No super Bowl bill just you're gonna be there, 0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:45.800 all right. Whatever. If you would have won the hat Friday, 0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:48.880 then I think we were doing in better shapes. That's right. Yeah, 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:51.720 wore wore. We don't get into the head was not 0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:56.119 getting I'm sorry, Billy, that way exactly how I thought 0:02:56.120 --> 0:02:59.160 it was. Although you know, although if there is any 0:02:59.200 --> 0:03:01.680 saving grace, at least they did what they needed to 0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:04.680 do and beat the Redskins forty seven sixteen. And I 0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:07.760 don't know if I've ever seen a victory over the 0:03:07.800 --> 0:03:12.040 Redskins so hollow in my life, right, because usually if 0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:14.200 you just beat the Redskins, even if they're bad, it's 0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:17.040 a great deal, right, And you beat them forty seven sixteen, 0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:20.359 And as Dak Prescott said after the game, he said, 0:03:20.400 --> 0:03:24.680 I don't think I've ever been as disappointed after a win. Yeah, 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:27.200 that was a quiet locker room. Not many guys talked. 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:29.960 And I mean they had their chances, that they had 0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:33.520 their chance a week ago and they didn't capitalize in Philly. 0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:35.760 And when you look back at this season, I think 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:37.800 we're gonna look back at a lot of things, but 0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:40.560 the close games in particular, they were one in six 0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:43.800 and games decided by one score, and last year I 0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:47.240 think they were something like nine and three, and you know, 0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:49.400 didn't make the plays in the fourth quarter. We mentioned 0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:52.440 the slow starts. Those were a thing all year long. 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:55.240 And you know, when you go back and review this season, 0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:57.400 I think you're gonna look at some things that didn't 0:03:57.400 --> 0:03:59.960 go right that cost them in the playoffs last year. 0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:02.840 Are same things the games they lost. They didn't convert 0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:04.920 in the red zone, they didn't stop the run at times, 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:07.440 and they didn't take the ball away, and those are 0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:10.800 Jason Garrett mentioned on the on the Fan this morning, 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:14.040 they didn't make enough winning type plays consistently this season, 0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:15.440 and that's why they're eight and eight, and that's why 0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:18.640 they're home for the playoffs. Yeah, when you started thinking 0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:23.000 about it, you've got what the turnovers in the game, 0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:26.320 you know, we made the third downs. It was going 0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:29.719 back to what we were accustomed to. And as you 0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:33.719 looked at the game and as it was over, I'm 0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:35.599 sure if I was in that locker room and I 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:38.640 was one of those players, I would have been contemplating 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:42.320 so many things at that point, all the things that 0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:46.320 you pointed out, you know, our failties and and everything 0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:51.600 that we messed up, our inability to you know, keep 0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:54.440 things in our own hands, you know, to keep our 0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:56.359 fate in our own hands. I think that really is 0:04:56.480 --> 0:05:00.360 the most disappointing part of it. Um. We can talk 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:04.479 about the different individual stats and failures, but when it 0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:07.679 all comes down to it, they were not a good team. 0:05:08.320 --> 0:05:11.040 We always talk about the superstars, We always talk about 0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:13.360 the salaries that we gave out. And I've said it 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:14.840 over and over again. You don't need a team full 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:17.480 of superstars to beat a team full of superstars. You 0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:22.440 just need a good team. And who who implifies that 0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:28.440 right now to me? The Philadelphia Eagles. Yea, everything that 0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:32.120 they got, they deserved everything that they have right now. 0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:35.679 And we deserve everything that we have right now because 0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:39.480 those guys did what we did last year with nothing, 0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:42.760 with less at least last year, Dak and the guys 0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:46.320 had Zeke and you had Cooper, had the offensive line. 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:51.440 They were man. I think the guy said yesterday some 0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:55.200 of the guys had just met in the huddle. Let 0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:58.120 me think about, Hey, how you doing it right? I 0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:00.240 just signed up about it right before the game. And 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:03.720 here you got practice player, former practice player got three 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:07.599 touchdowns yesterday. Scott. Did I read that? Boston Scott? Boston 0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:09.919 Scott the running back and just think about that he 0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:18.800 was a practice player. Yeah, no excuses and almost. Let's 0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:21.840 we got a lot of elbows in the face. Yeah, 0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:24.120 I think he did play in high school basketball, yeah, 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:27.200 or go pick up basketball. Yeah, yeah, I didn't grow 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:30.480 any from high school. Yeah. All right, let's do this 0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:35.640 and we'll uh. Douglas Barricklough is doing the producing honors today, 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:39.360 chores today, and he's got some cuts from Jason Garrett's 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:42.000 appearance this morning on one oh five three the Fan. 0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:45.960 Let's start with this. Despite missing the playoffs, Garrett pleased 0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:48.600 with the way his team played yesterday. That was so 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:53.000 inspired by how our team played yesterday. And ultimately, as 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:55.920 a coach, you know that that's the stuff that becomes 0:06:55.960 --> 0:06:58.800 most important to you. And uh, you know, the look 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:01.600 our guys had in the rye is and how they played, 0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:03.680 and the love they had for the game and for 0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:07.120 each other, and just how hard they played and how 0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:09.920 determined they played, and how tough they played and how 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:12.440 willful they played. You those are the things as a 0:07:12.480 --> 0:07:16.480 coach that you just you value more than anything else. 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:21.320 So you know, ultimately we didn't get it done. Ultimately, 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:24.640 you know, we weren't a playoff team this year. That's 0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:27.560 disappointing for everybody. And no one more than us, the 0:07:27.560 --> 0:07:30.760 guys who were directly involved in it. But yesterday was 0:07:30.800 --> 0:07:33.280 a good day. We control we could control, and the 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:36.240 guys played inspirational football. As a coach, that's that we 0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:40.600 value most. You know, the big takeaway I had from 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:45.920 the whole post game scene yesterday was, you know, these guys, 0:07:47.440 --> 0:07:52.280 as disappointing as it is any team, especially at this level, 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:56.600 you invest so much during the year, and Dak Prescott 0:07:56.640 --> 0:08:00.400 talks about the brotherhood that develops every year, and it's 0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:03.920 emotional regardless at the when you've even invested, like this 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:07.440 team invested it, even though the results aren't what they 0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:11.520 everyone wanted it to be. It's's an emotional time at 0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:13.760 the end of the season when you're when it's the 0:08:13.840 --> 0:08:15.680 end of the road, well, you know, when you're spending 0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:17.720 your whole time with these guys, you know, you're you're 0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:20.640 with your teammates more than you're with your family. They 0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:22.840 might see you guys more than they I might see 0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:24.400 you guys more I might see my wife, you know, 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:27.200 if I'm playing during the season, and you know, when 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:29.080 you start getting real close to these guys and your 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.400 your efforts come together and then you're you know, you're 0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:34.360 together when you lose, you're together when you win. You know, 0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:36.520 you go through these ups and downs like a family. 0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:39.880 You know they're gonna be some arguments, some disappointments, but 0:08:39.920 --> 0:08:43.800 then in the end is when you finally realize we 0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:47.439 did all of this together, good or bad. Well, we 0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:49.480 are all in this together, and it is I guess 0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:51.760 it does get pretty emotional, you know, especially when you're 0:08:51.800 --> 0:08:55.480 disappointing in the disappointing season. It's emotionally enough when the 0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:58.520 season's over. After Super Bowl win, it's really emotionally when 0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:00.760 you don't even get there and get to watch all 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:02.960 of these guys and the accolades and things of that nature, 0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:07.520 knowing that you have really and if you're that player 0:09:07.520 --> 0:09:10.080 and you in this particular situation, you would look at 0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:13.040 yourself and say, I let my teammates down. No matter 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:15.480 how well you played, if I would have done better, 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:18.320 then we would have done better. That's the team concept. 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:21.160 It's like Zeke said, after the game, it becomes like 0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:23.800 a family. And Jeff heat told me, you know, and 0:09:23.840 --> 0:09:26.640 he's sitting there talking to us with two bad shoulders 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:29.199 and probably at least one probably needs to get fixed 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:31.560 in the off season. Guys playing through stuff. He said. 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.320 You know, we've we've been together basically every day since April. 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:36.800 You know, when the when the off season program starts. 0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:40.560 And so you summed it up, great former player, you 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:42.679 know exactly what it's like when or lose at the 0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:45.880 end of the season. Um, and and the reality sets 0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:48.480 in that this group will never be together again. I 0:09:48.480 --> 0:09:51.079 mean especially, I think that that is really the ultimate 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:54.000 sadness about it. You know that something's gonna change and 0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:56.720 this this will never happen again. This will never happen, 0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:59.920 not this exact group. And uh, you know, go to 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:02.200 on the list here, it's like twenty it is twenty 0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:10.240 six potential unrestricted free agents. Yeah, a lot of potential 0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:11.960 change on this team, you know. And I think the 0:10:11.960 --> 0:10:16.280 hardest thing is is you're going from start of training 0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:18.760 camp to you know, the last game of the season. 0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:21.400 You're going one hundred miles an hour, right, and then 0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:24.319 all of a sudden, when you get in situations like this, 0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:30.080 say say you're six and six and nine or whatever, 0:10:30.480 --> 0:10:32.400 you know you're not going to the playoffs. You know 0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:35.680 the season's over. You go three and twelve, you get 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:37.840 to the last game, you know the season's over. But 0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:41.840 this was almost like a playoff game where one hundred 0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:44.440 miles an hour then everything comes to a screeching halt. 0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:48.280 And I think that's so hard if if I was 0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:51.160 a player, Heck, it's hard for us, right, Yeah, We're 0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:52.880 going one hundred miles an hour and then all of 0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:56.160 a sudden, well it's over, And I think that would 0:10:56.200 --> 0:10:58.760 be the hardest thing to accept. The most sobering thing 0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:00.520 is here in a few minutes in the locker room 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:03.400 supposed to open to the media, and those trash bags 0:11:03.440 --> 0:11:06.000 comes out. Guys are cleaning out their lockers after their 0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:08.760 final team meetings, like you get the box, you know, 0:11:08.760 --> 0:11:10.360 when you're in the office, you get the box. You know, 0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:12.800 the guys got the trash bag. Yeah, and guys start 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:16.760 asking answering questions about their contract status coming up, whether 0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:19.640 they need surgery in the offseason. I mean, it's it's 0:11:19.679 --> 0:11:22.439 just a totally different vibe, and it's it's the reality 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:25.040 sets in. This is it all right? Here's more from 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:27.360 Jason Garrett from This Morning on one O five three 0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:30.840 The fan answering a big picture question, what did he 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:34.920 think went wrong this season? I think the overarching explanation 0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:37.640 is we weren't consistent enough. We weren't consistent enough throughout 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:40.280 the year, from game to game. We weren't consistent enough 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:44.960 within games. We didn't do the things that winning football 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:47.640 teams do. And you know, we have a we have 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:51.240 a basic formula for winning that we talk a lot about. 0:11:51.240 --> 0:11:52.800 You have to win the ball, you have to win 0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:54.720 the big players, you have to win the fourth quarter. 0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:57.840 And oftentimes when you when you pull back after a 0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:01.920 ball game to evaluate those three statistics, you know those 0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:04.760 will be the deciding factors in games. If you lose 0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:07.319 the turnover ratio, you're going to lose a lot of games. 0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:09.880 In the NFL. If one team is making many more 0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:12.360 big plays than the other team in the game, typically 0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:15.199 that correlates to points. You know, you make big plays 0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:18.400 typically score points. If you don't, it's hard to score points. 0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:20.640 And then obviously, so many of these games are decided 0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:23.400 in the fourth quarter. They're one score games. Two thirds 0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:26.480 of the games in the NFL decided by one score. 0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:29.800 And how you play in those games, you know, how 0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:32.840 you play in the fourth quarter is huge. If you 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:34.680 make the players on offense or if you make the 0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:37.200 stops on defense, do what you need to do. In 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:39.240 the kicking game. And you know, in the games that 0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:42.280 we lost, many of them were close games, one score games. 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:45.160 That's the best thing we did with our team last year. 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:48.079 You know, we won seven out of eight down the stretch, 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:50.960 eight out of ten down the stretch last year, and 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:53.880 they were close games. They were back and forth. You know, 0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:56.520 we're ahead, they're a head, scores tied, and we do 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:58.040 we need to do at the end of the game. 0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:00.679 This year, in the games that we lost, we weren't 0:13:00.720 --> 0:13:02.840 able to get that done. And ultimately that's the difference. 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:07.480 And that was the difference, right one in six and 0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:11.480 one score games. And I think in some of those 0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:14.000 one score games they became one score games because they 0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:16.520 had fallen behind right so much that they had to 0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:18.679 score so much just to make it a one. That's true. 0:13:18.679 --> 0:13:23.199 They weren't all yeah, but they have some opportunities in 0:13:23.320 --> 0:13:25.040 some of them, and they put in cash in late, 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.320 you know. And there was never ever a better example 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:30.760 of what he was saying than the Seattle Seahawks. They 0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:34.719 went into the game last night and they of their 0:13:34.760 --> 0:13:38.439 eleven wins, ten were one score games. And what happens 0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:44.079 last night, it's a one score game and they're right, 0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:46.840 and they get penalized and they can't get in the 0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:49.360 end zone and they lose twenty six twenty one when 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:53.240 the tight end landed six inches from the goal line. 0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:56.120 Sometime they say that it catches up with you. Yeah, 0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:58.200 and you know what, and I and that was kind 0:13:58.200 --> 0:14:00.599 of my what I wrote about from last year to 0:14:00.760 --> 0:14:03.720 this year, it caught up with them. They won eight 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:07.360 games last year by one score. It's like, okay, now 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:11.080 this year you're testing face of the attempting. If you're 0:14:11.080 --> 0:14:14.320 not knocking people out right dominating them, at some point, 0:14:14.360 --> 0:14:17.439 that stuff's gonna even out. You can't keep winning like that. Well, 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:20.320 the pattern that they had was was not a good pattern, 0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:24.320 you know, having to win those close games and putting 0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:28.000 yourself in position to having to make that play. All 0:14:28.000 --> 0:14:30.200 of a sudden you can't make that play or that 0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:32.320 field goal or that field goal, and so here you 0:14:32.360 --> 0:14:34.280 got you can say, Okay, well it's coaching. We should 0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:36.080 have done this, We should have done that. No one 0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:39.760 questioned any of their you know, any of their approach. 0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:44.120 You know, last year, there was no questioning how they wanted, 0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:46.640 Oh this could have gone this way in that game 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.680 or for those games we didn't. We didn't quantify how 0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:52.280 full of those games could have gone another way right 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:55.680 now here we are talking about them. By the way, 0:14:55.680 --> 0:15:00.440 on that Seattle game, ironic was it that this Saints 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:04.080 missed out on a chance at a first round by 0:15:04.280 --> 0:15:12.160 because the replay booth decided not to review and obvious pass? 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:17.960 By the way, my NFL officiocule, how could they not 0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:21.520 even look at that? I mean, okay, say you say that, 0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:23.440 and you know what they were going to say. The 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:26.880 call in the field stands. But look at it and 0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:30.320 and somebody said, I mean because they because they passed 0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:33.080 the rule right, so you might as well, and it 0:15:33.240 --> 0:15:36.840 was broadcast justified. He tried to justify it by saying, 0:15:37.040 --> 0:15:39.960 you don't want to come in and change a game 0:15:40.680 --> 0:15:43.280 with that call? Yeah, well that no call, That's what 0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:45.720 that That's why the rule was put in. That's what 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:47.880 they said. That's why the rule. And then let me 0:15:47.920 --> 0:15:51.080 throw this out there. Can you imagine the criticism Jason 0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:54.400 Garrett would have gotten if his team got down on 0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:57.360 the one yard line and getting got a delay a 0:15:57.480 --> 0:16:03.120 game penalty? How do they look? That looked like us 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:05.600 watching that game? How did they get a delayed? But 0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:10.000 it just they blew it. Asked Jason garb the same thing. 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:13.160 How did something have They just blew it. They wouldn't 0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:15.080 even explain it. They tried to talk about it after 0:16:15.120 --> 0:16:19.040 the game. He just brushed over it. Pete Call said, oh, 0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:20.600 it was just what it was. And then they tried 0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:22.840 to try to explain the way, saying, oh, well, now 0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:25.840 they have more room to pass the ball we wanted 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:34.680 from the six stop. Even the commentators were silly on 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:37.320 that one. They gave it a pass. They gave them 0:16:37.320 --> 0:16:40.240 a pass. If that was Jason Garrett, that would be 0:16:40.280 --> 0:16:44.120 the talk of the entire game. Jason Garrett blew the 0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:47.800 whole season right there. I can't remember which game it was. 0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:50.520 It was somewhere in the in the nineties in the 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:53.520 Super Bowl seasons where the Cowboys were kind of in 0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:56.520 that same situation about the six yard line, and Troy 0:16:56.600 --> 0:17:01.280 threw a pass underneath against Eland right now, remember, and 0:17:01.400 --> 0:17:04.080 he ended up at the half yard line, And how 0:17:04.119 --> 0:17:06.080 could you throw the ball underneath? You got to throw 0:17:06.080 --> 0:17:08.360 it in the end zone. They had no timehouse left, 0:17:08.400 --> 0:17:11.000 and so the clock is run, the actual game clock 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:14.120 is running, and they couldn't get another playoff. So yeah, 0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:16.320 all right, one more before we take a break. One 0:17:16.320 --> 0:17:20.119 more from Jason Garrett asked what his future holds. I 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:22.280 don't know. I don't know. We're gonna go in this morning, 0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:25.240 and uh, the guys have acted physicals, so we're gonna 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:26.920 talk to our players. We're gonna have a team meeting 0:17:26.960 --> 0:17:29.199 at at twelve noon, and I'm scheduled a visit with 0:17:29.240 --> 0:17:32.040 the Joneses after that and we'll have a good visit 0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:36.240 and we'll see what's we'll see what's next. I thought 0:17:36.240 --> 0:17:39.399 the locker room was open at noon other team meetings. 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:41.720 I just heard it's gonna be a little later, Okay, 0:17:41.840 --> 0:17:44.000 all right, Yeah, so the team meeting takes place right 0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:48.080 after talking counts everyone precedence, then us getting in the lock. 0:17:48.160 --> 0:17:49.879 When I woke up this morning, I was looking for 0:17:50.320 --> 0:17:53.679 esp in the load or something already. Yeah, we had 0:17:53.720 --> 0:17:59.760 two of them. Yeah kitchens. Last night Cleveland made that 0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:04.960 move quickly, Aqui quickly after they lost count and then 0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:08.199 this morning Pat Shermer let go, but Dave Gentleman is 0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:11.040 staying on as the gem of the New York Giants. 0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:14.520 So that's that's Jason Garrett's futurements. That's a lot of 0:18:14.560 --> 0:18:17.480 speculative lining up like that. It sounds like it. Well, 0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:21.520 it's unique because he's he's out of contract. So there's 0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:23.800 if they decide to go in a different direction, it's 0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:27.399 not of firing. Would it would be Yeah, And I 0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:29.240 don't even and I don't even know if if they do, 0:18:29.320 --> 0:18:31.240 if they do change direction, I don't even know if 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:33.040 they would make an announcement or when they would make 0:18:33.040 --> 0:18:35.240 an announcement, because if you look at it, Mick like 0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:37.800 a player as a free agent. They don't announce that 0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:40.280 a player leaves. I don't know how we'll see how 0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:42.320 this unfort I think if there was, if there was 0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:44.520 an announcement, and I'm just speculat, I have no idea, 0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:47.200 but it would be a mutual parting of the ways. 0:18:47.640 --> 0:18:52.960 If that way was, I think it would describe describe 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:55.719 that way as a mutual parting of the ways.
