1 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: The following. He's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 2 00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:18,280 Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. He's Talking Cowboys screaming 3 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 1: live from the Dallas Cowboys World headquarters at the Star 4 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: in Frisco, flowing to the gold Scott and now your 5 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 1: hosts Isaiah Stanback, heck My Harrison, Rob Phillips, and Kyle Yeoman's. No, 6 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,839 Speaker 1: there are days that come along where you really just 7 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,960 Speaker 1: need to let it, let it go, and you need 8 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: to just settle down and just take a deep breath 9 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: and look at some of the disappointment that has been 10 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,199 Speaker 1: in the rearview mirror and just move on. Today is 11 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: not one of those days. Today is a day to 12 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: say it with your chest and really look back at 13 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: what happened in yesterday's forty nine thirty eight loss for 14 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys against the Cleveland Browns. We're gonna break 15 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 1: it down for you here on Talking Cowboys because we're frustrated, 16 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: just like you guys are Cowboys Nation, and we want 17 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: to talk through it and we want to figure out 18 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: exactly what it's gonna take to fix this team, because 19 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 1: they're one in three through the first quarter of the season, 20 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:22,919 Speaker 1: and there's a long way to go. I'm Kyle Yeoman's 21 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: alongside Isaiah Standback, Rob Phillips and the great heck My 22 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: Harrison and guys. It was disappointing. It was an embarrassment 23 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: of a game, to say the least. And there's no 24 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: sugar coating it right now, there really isn't. I mean, 25 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: you can go through and you can talk about the 26 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 1: positive Ceedee Lamb had a good day. Dalton Schultz was 27 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: solid again. Amari Cooper was a number one receiver and 28 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: he looked like he was worth his money. Dak Prescott 29 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: put up great numbers late in that game. Again, however, 30 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: it was just not the game that you wanted to 31 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 1: see from the Dallas Cowboys, especially in what we said 32 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: should have been at least remotely a game where you 33 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: could get back to five hundred and should get a win. 34 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: But Rob, it just wasn't that at all. I'm gonna 35 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: hand it I'm gonna play option quarterback today. I'm based 36 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: on our our pre show Bobus. I'm gonna hand it 37 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 1: off to Isaiah stand Back because i feel like it's 38 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: a teav servant we need to go. Are we like 39 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: chi te or what? What mean? Yeah? It was steaming tea. Yeah, okay, 40 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 1: this is a safe place, right, this is a safe place. 41 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: All right, let's trust tree. We're in the nest. We're 42 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: in the nest here. This was the most disrespectful performance 43 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: that cowboys have put forth all year long. And if 44 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: you guys have been paying attention, if you guys have 45 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: been watching this show, if you guys saw ezacly what 46 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: we talked about every single day last week, about the 47 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: things that they needed to do and about the things 48 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 1: that they could not allow to happen. They obviously didn't 49 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: watch the show because the deepest of line did not 50 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: show up in any form or fashion. Right. They literally 51 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: got dogged. It was like, it's almost like you have 52 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: like a little like you have a little brother, right, 53 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 1: and there's like a ten years separation. Ron we turns 54 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 1: five years old and he wants to rescue on the couch. 55 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: What do you do? You just grab him, just toss 56 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: him right, and he guess what, he keeps coming back. 57 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: But what do you keep doing? You just keep tossing 58 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: them right, And that's what happened last night. They this 59 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: offensive line and this offense of Cleveland put on an 60 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: absolute clinic. And when you go back and watch the 61 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: film and watch the run blocking right, which we knew 62 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: they were going to do. They have two dogs back 63 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 1: there that run the ball, and they run the ball 64 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: very well. Unfortunately for them, one of them got hurt 65 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: early on, but he was still pretty dog on efficient 66 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 1: before he got hurt. And by the way, after he 67 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: went out, they decided to bring along the other two 68 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: guys that they had behind Kareem Hunt. So they used 69 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: four running backs and they all averaged over six yards 70 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: per carry. I believe the sept for the one who 71 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: had five for nineteen or something like that, right, so 72 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: that was that's the only one. However, these guys had 73 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: a clinic. There's a whole lot to talk about, but 74 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: it was disrespectful. Let's sum that up. And then there 75 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: later back month, d Ernest Johnson was the guy that 76 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: you know, I didn't circle him, underline him, highlight his 77 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 1: name or nothing. I mean, I knew about him. I figured, 78 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: you know, kick returned specialist, that's how he made the team. 79 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: But I had no notes on d Ernest Johnson, somebody 80 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: that wasn't worried about. When Nick Chubb went down. It 81 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: wasn't that I was happy. I was like, look, this 82 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: is gonna be Kareem Hunt. It's gonna be the guy 83 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 1: that we have to worry about. I knew they moved 84 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 1: Hillard up from the practice squad, but man, we got gashed. 85 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the only place to put this is gashed. 86 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: Our interior alignement. Just that no one showed up on 87 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball. And obviously there's so 88 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: much to unpack. We cannot chew this whole steak in 89 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,239 Speaker 1: one bite. We will have to break this down. Kyle, 90 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: please help us. Okay, well, let's start. We're gonna go 91 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 1: through the defense in the next segment. We're gonna go 92 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: through the offense in the first segment. But let's start 93 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: off with kind of some of the decision making. And 94 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: I want to start on the special team side of things. 95 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: Following the comeback, and we had to comeback where you 96 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: were down twenty four point or actually more than that, 97 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,799 Speaker 1: you were down twenty seven points in the fourth quarter. 98 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: You had to make the comeback. That would have been 99 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: the largest fourth quarter comeback in NFL history. The previous 100 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: largest was twenty five and that was the Saint Louis 101 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: Rams quite a bit ago. However, you did score twenty 102 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: four unanswered points in the fourth quarter, and then the 103 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: decision came to kick an on site kick squib thing 104 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: that really wasn't necessarily anything that you should have done, 105 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 1: because if if I were in that seat, you either 106 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: kick it deep and trust your defense to get a stop, 107 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 1: or you have the on site kick if you don't 108 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: trust your defense. So I guess in that moment we 109 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: would probably say let's go with the on site kick. However, 110 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: what would you guys would have done? And Rob, I'm 111 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: interested to hear what you have to say about this. 112 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: What would you have done in that situation? And what 113 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 1: did you think about just the infuriating kick that was 114 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: the on side squib thing. Yeah, I would have probably 115 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: done something different there. But you know what I mean, 116 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 1: when you recap this game, that one doesn't just come 117 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: to my mind. Really, it's it's what everybody covered just 118 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: a minute ago. Doug, And you know what, we discussed 119 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 1: the show we had after week two. We would have 120 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: had that show today if they hadn't had that miracle 121 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 1: on side kick the watermelon. However, John Fossil calls it 122 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: because that game, you're you're lucky you had that game 123 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: because now you're one in three and said, oh and four, 124 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: because you're one miracle. That game, that game covered up 125 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 1: a lot of the problems that we've been seeing the 126 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: last three weeks. And basically in some different ways, they 127 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: played the same game below. And when you play that 128 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 1: type of game where you make enough mistakes offensively and 129 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: you get beat up for defensively and you give up 130 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: plays on the back end, and yet you could throw 131 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: in special teams some questions there too. Um, you're you're 132 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: in trouble. You're every game you play. Party went out 133 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,119 Speaker 1: yesterday and talked about how it's a pattern these last 134 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: four games last week. He wasn't here last year. It's 135 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: the same pattern from last year. Yeah, slow starts, turnovers, 136 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: not enough takeaways, and run defense a problem off and 137 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: on and you put it all together and it's the 138 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: same reason the Cowboys were eight and eight last year. 139 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: The difference is they've got an offense that seems to 140 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: be big enough to try to make it for that light. 141 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: But when you did yourself a big enough hole like 142 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: they did yesterday, the special team's decision doesn't really ultimately 143 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: doesn't really matter because you're you're you're way too far 144 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: behind the eight ball, and that's why they lost this game, 145 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: and that's why they're one and three for the first 146 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: time in ten years. This is you. This is not 147 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,239 Speaker 1: the coach's Paul, I don't know. I want to everybody 148 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: out there stop looking around the coaches. This is the players, right, 149 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: This is simply the players. You got a man up. 150 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: You've grown man. I played six years in the league. 151 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: Sometimes you get disrespected, but you better come right right, 152 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: dog on back right. If you get thrown around, you 153 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: come back and you find a way. That is a 154 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: challenge if these dudes are finding If Jalen Smith running 155 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: in there, they used his aggressiveness against him. He ran 156 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: in there thinking he was gonna bull rush these guys. 157 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: These linemen literally just hugged him and would not let 158 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: him off the block. That's not your advantage, buddy, You 159 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: can't keep what's what's it? What's the definition of insanity? 160 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting 161 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: a different result. That's what these guys did. Poe, you've 162 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:41,719 Speaker 1: been playing Poe right, Griffin, I'm sorry you haven't been 163 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: with the Griffin that we expected. You know, he'll the 164 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: bloody death roll didn't work for you. Yesterday. I mean, 165 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: there's a whole lot of things that that these guys 166 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: just didn't show up, and everybody's gonna turn to the 167 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 1: coaches and you know, I know you brought up the 168 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 1: special teams. That was a dumb called. That's one of 169 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: the few dumb calls I think that he's made all year. 170 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,079 Speaker 1: There's just there's just no chance of anything going in 171 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: your way on that um. But this is the players. 172 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: This is this is a I can't use that term. This, 173 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: this is a this is a gut check, all right, 174 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,079 Speaker 1: This is a gut check. And these guys, if they 175 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: want to play ball, they have to show up. Stop 176 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: looking around, man up and claiming yeah in a position 177 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: like that, I said, with the with the squib kick, Uh, 178 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: bad management, horrible strategy. You have a time out of 179 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: you still have the two minute worn and so kick 180 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: it deep. At least give yourself an opportunity. Uh there, 181 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: Instead the squib kick, the guy catches it on the 182 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,599 Speaker 1: run and he brings it out to midfield. You basically 183 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 1: surrender all of your momentum back over at that point 184 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: you Dak has come back to the team is with 185 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: it within three at that point, and I don't know 186 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: about you in your household, but I know for me 187 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: and mine at that point, it was like, oh my god, 188 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: who we have a chance. Is it happening again? And 189 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: once we make that squib kick and they got to midfield, 190 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: it was like, well, wait a minute, what's the strategy 191 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,079 Speaker 1: in this, Because if you're saying we're just gonna give 192 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: up a quick score, you're still down by ten and 193 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: now you you need two scores to win the game, 194 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: will tie the game, so and then you need an 195 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 1: onside kick just for the second score. So I didn't 196 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: understand that. I didn't understand that. From a coaching standpoint, 197 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,439 Speaker 1: I would have just kicked it deep, put my deepfense 198 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: out there and and prayed and hope that we got 199 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: to stop. But that last play by Adell Beckham, we're 200 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: going to talk about it, but to me, that is 201 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 1: just that just sums up everything that's happened in this 202 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: first quarter of the season for the Cowboys. Let's anything 203 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 1: that can go wrong, the things that you don't really 204 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: expect to go wrong, play like that fifty yard reverse 205 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: where he's not touched. I mean, right, we've seen some 206 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: shuff that comes four weeks, man, But but Rob, that's 207 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,719 Speaker 1: not that's not something going wrong, And I don't want 208 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: to I don't want us to keep using that term 209 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: because something going wrong implicates as if oh we had 210 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,719 Speaker 1: bad luck. No, guys did not uphold their responsibilities. The 211 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: only person that upheld their responsibilities was Aldon Smith. Aldon 212 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: Smith was right there. He just didn't make the play, unfortunately. 213 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: But that's a tough play. You got two d man 214 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: trying to stop somebody who's one of the fastest dudes 215 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: in the league. You're probably not gonna win that battle. 216 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: Even if Isaiah, if Aldon Smith cuts up to if 217 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: he Alder Smith makes Odell Beckham cut that back up, 218 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: he runs them back to the defense, he loses contained 219 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: on that. Yes, if he makes the tackle and miraculously 220 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: him one on one. I don't want any one on 221 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 1: one situations with Aldon Smith and Odell Beckham. But his 222 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: number one responsibility right there was do not lose contained. 223 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: And so that's why Odell Beckham was so adamant about 224 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 1: getting to the outside because he knew he was gonna 225 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: give us free all the way down the sideline for 226 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: fifty yards us down. He knew it. And if he 227 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: makes that tackle dog. We're back at the thirty four 228 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: yard line. Obviously, this is a whole other conversation, but man, 229 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: you gotta make that guy cut back. Feel you have 230 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: to to reiterate Aldon Smith was where he was supposed 231 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: to be, yes, or that Odell Beckham was a better 232 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: athlete did Aldon Smith. That's the facts in that situation. 233 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: In that particular situation, he's a better athlete, So advantage 234 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 1: goes to Beckham. Even though Aldon Smith was eight yards 235 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 1: up the field, stayed back there. He kept his he 236 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: kept his leverage, he kept his containment. He did a 237 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: good job. Odell was freaking O'Dell. You know, say, some 238 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 1: guys are just those dudes, So you can't expect every 239 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: time just because you're in a position to always make 240 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: the play. Now, he did make him bow out. By 241 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: making him bow out, he took his and he took 242 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,079 Speaker 1: his momentium away. He made him lose yardage, He made 243 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: him have to go out. And then what happened. And 244 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: then we saw the Great Wall of China come right 245 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: all those guys. You saw all those brown jerseys wanting 246 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: those guys off like it was a mapped out bunt 247 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: return on dog on a water boy. This guy had 248 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 1: drewed up in a dog on playbook and there was 249 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: nobody to come help. And then you saw the gass 250 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: who is Odell Beckham. Don't disrespect him. He's still Odell 251 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: when we talked about that. He still has that juice right, 252 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: And he took off on these boys. And then you 253 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: saw Jali's man trying to round with the arms flend 254 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: and you're not fast enough either way. Either way, and 255 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 1: when you bow out like that, he bowled out teen 256 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: yards and the pursuit angles still didn't get to him. 257 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I replayed that that play a million times 258 00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: and I still can't understand how he went untouched. I slept. 259 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 1: But the angles contain the first touchdown catch by Beckham 260 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: from Jarvis Landry thirty seven yards. That was an angle play. 261 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: There's been angles, there's been miscommunication. I don't think you 262 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: could put it on one thing. I don't think you 263 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: could say, oh, it's it's it's the coaching staff and 264 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: the scheme, all the all of that. But I don't 265 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: think you can say it's all the players either, Isaiah. 266 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: I'm glad you said that, though, and you corrected me 267 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: because you said it's not just something going wrong, because 268 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: I heard that as part of the narrative a week 269 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: or so. If they clean this up, if they don't 270 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: make these turnovers, if they don't do this, they could 271 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: be three and oh ye no at some point. And 272 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: I look around with some perspective for me personally, I mean, 273 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: this is a weird year. Guys are trying to play 274 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: through an imprecedented situation. I recognize that this is a 275 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: hard deal for everybody around the league to try to 276 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: do this, pull this season off. But you know, we're 277 00:13:55,920 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: paid to analyze and this is this is the same 278 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 1: problem from last year and I and to go and 279 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 1: it was the same type of thing it was. But 280 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: if they ironed these creases, if they if they eliminate 281 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: this and that and some of the sloppiness, what's a 282 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: certain point that does become your identity until you fix it. 283 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: You know, you can't. You can't just say, well, if 284 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 1: they you know, if we're a little cleaner, it's a 285 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: point you got a winning plays and be enough clean 286 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: football on all three phases to give yourself a chance. 287 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: They have not given themselves a chance to win games, 288 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: save or one of the greatest comebacks we've seen in 289 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: team history. Three weeks ago, Rob, You're right, Kyle said 290 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: it best that he tossed the well. He tossed the 291 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: question to Nate in the postgame show. He's say, what 292 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: area do we need to improve upon? And Nate said 293 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: all of them. I tried to get I tried to 294 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: get Nate to give me something specific. I was like, Hey, 295 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: if you had to choose one, if there was one 296 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: thing there, what's specific. And I made it very clear. 297 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 1: I was trying to make it a very specific point. 298 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: And Nate was like, not at all of them. Like 299 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: I I know what you're trying to get me to say, 300 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: and I'm still gonna say all of them. And I 301 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: don't disagree. And the thing that's most frustrating about it, 302 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 1: I think, and Rob you brought this point up, is yes, 303 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: everybody's going through a weird season. It's the preseason's gone. 304 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: You got a coaching change that was an excuse the 305 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: first three weeks of the season. You're in week four. Now. 306 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: These are professional athletes that are getting paid millions of 307 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: dollars to do your job the right way. Isaiah said 308 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: yesterday in the middle of the game Cleveland was the 309 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: epitome of D y J. Do your job. They came in, 310 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: they played complimentary football. You did not. You did the opposite. 311 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: You played anti complimentary football, and that's what got you 312 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: in the hole in the first place. Also, not to mention, 313 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 1: Cleveland also has a do head coach that hasn't won 314 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl in the past. Kevin Stefanski, who has 315 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: been an offensive coordinator or a tight ends coach for 316 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: fourteen years in Minnesota, came out and out coached you 317 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: and really just beat you up and down the field 318 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 1: to start the game. And it really is it's acceptable 319 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: from a Cowboys perspective, the roster that you have. It 320 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: was really disappointing all the way around. Isaiah. Yeah, I 321 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: mean you just said, I mean it's not and that's 322 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's not simply the coaching, and as 323 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: as a former player, I don't like it's actually almost 324 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: a slap in the face when people start making excuses. Right, 325 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: Either some people are gonna go with excuses or like 326 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: I said, used gonna let yourself in a mirror and say, hey, 327 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: I'm not getting it done. And I think the postgame 328 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: interview with d Law yesterday was a perfect example of 329 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 1: him just calling it out and calling himself out as well. 330 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 1: We play soft as tissue paper. Yeah, so yeah, what 331 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: it is, man, these guys, these guys better figure out 332 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: if they want to. I mean, I know the NFC 333 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: East is whack and they better hopefully, I hope their 334 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: mindset isn't set on, oh, we're still good because of 335 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: the NFC East. Screw that. Control what you can control. Yeah, no, 336 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: they're not. Honestly, teams won a Super Bowl, man, Like 337 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: they're they're gonna figure it out. They may not be 338 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: a great team this year, but they're gonna be competitive 339 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: and they're gonna challenge face in the show. But if 340 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: we're counting on just the division being a toilet for 341 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: us to make it to finish it and with the 342 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 1: division that's not that's not a good strategy at all. 343 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: And Isaiah like, look, man, six years in the league. 344 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 1: You know every good or bad play has a hero 345 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: or villain. Our guys are turning into the villains on 346 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: these bad plays, bad angles. Just I understand Cleveland came 347 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 1: out and they blocked it up. Well, then the front 348 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: they're front five, man, they played awesome yesterday. All of 349 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: those guys should have got the game ball. But when 350 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: you have Everson Griffin ducking inside when he knows he 351 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: has contained, you're playing losing football. You're giving up a 352 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 1: fifteen yard running lane to a running back that's just 353 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: the one on one. The ABC's a football. He's known 354 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: that his whole career. How can you do that? I mean, 355 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: when you have Wilson and your safeties, when you have 356 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: a blitz, you are the last line. Dude. You have 357 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: to get home. If Nolan is dowaling up a blitz 358 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: to try and slow this down, guy's hesitating and I 359 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: fall in. Baker Mayfield get home. You gotta get home. Hey, 360 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: And all of those things you just brought up, none 361 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: of them are in regards to coaching. Yeah, those are assignments. 362 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 1: Those are assignment errors because I guarantee you they're coaching 363 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: it up right. Those are assignment errors, mental errors, and 364 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: communication errors. It's the players figure it out. And DeMarcus 365 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: Lawrence said it like you said. You mentioned his postgame 366 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 1: press conference, he called the defense soft. He also called 367 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 1: him another S word. I can't say that on air, 368 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: but he called him soft, and he said this is 369 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: something we've got soft exactly. Yeah, he said this is 370 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: this is something we gotta fix. This is soft. And 371 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 1: whenever he said that, it wasn't for the media, it 372 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: wasn't for those asking the question. It's on the web ax, 373 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,479 Speaker 1: it wasn't for Talking Cowboys to sit here and debate. 374 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: That was for him, That was for his defense. That 375 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: was him saying this is unacceptable. We've got to change it. 376 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: And even last week Ezekiel Elliot said that he had 377 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: or that the Cowboys had a very good week of practice. Well, 378 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to have a better week of practice 379 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: this week to fix up some of the holes and 380 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: figure some things out.

It's the second segment of Talking Cowboys 418 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: as we sift through what is the wreckage of a 419 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: forty nine thirty eight Cleveland Brown's victory over the Dallas 420 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: Cowboys here on this Monday, following Glandier with us on 421 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys dot com and the various streaming websites and 422 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 1: guys to Ernest Johnson thirteen carries ninety five yards seven 423 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: and a half yards per carry. Odell Beckham Junior two 424 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: carries seventy three yards. Yeah, who Kareem Hunt? Eleven carries 425 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: seventy one yards. Nick Chubbs six for forty three Hilliard, 426 00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: who the heck Is Hilliard five for nineteen and he 427 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 1: had a long of ten at one point as well. 428 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: A total of forty carries three hundred and seven yards 429 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: on the ground for the Dallas Cowboys, the most ever 430 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: given up by a team in franchise history and the 431 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 1: only other three hundred plus yard rushing game from an 432 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: opponent since two thousands. So, guys, it was a dismal effort. 433 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 1: Whenever it comes to what the Cowboys showed defensively on 434 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: the ground yesterday, the secondary. We can talk about how 435 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: the secondary got torched on a couple of occasions. However, 436 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 1: it really wasn't tested a whole lot yesterday, especially compared 437 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: to the first three weeks of the season. But we 438 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: need to talk about what happened in the run defense. 439 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 1: But what happened in the run defense, somebody just tell 440 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 1: me in a short synopsis, what was the biggest problem. 441 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: They took our lunch. That's what they did. They selled 442 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: up in the lush room and they took our trade. 443 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 1: And that's what happened. I mean, interior line wise, we 444 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: got pushed around. If you see, if you go back 445 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: and look just at the interior line, the war and 446 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: the trenches. We lost that, and we lost it from 447 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: the first quarter all the way to the fourth quarter. 448 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,199 Speaker 1: We had nothing for them. We had no answer for 449 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: what they were doing. The run and guys, I think 450 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: we talked about this for weeks last week. For sure 451 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: that Cleveland was going to do what they were going 452 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: to run the ball, there was no surprise about that. 453 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 1: And the fact that they had so many guys that 454 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: were getting in on the act. Dearness, come on, I 455 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,360 Speaker 1: didn't go to bed Saturday night saying this guy, Dearness, 456 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: Johnson was somebody to worry about. I knew Kareem Hunt, 457 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,439 Speaker 1: We knew he had a growing injury, and so there 458 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: was a lot. We knew what the liabilities would be. 459 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: But for our defense man, that was an embarrassment, complete embarrassment. 460 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 1: I'm reiterating and saying the same thing, but it's it's embarrassing, man. 461 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:56,360 Speaker 1: I'm saying, like the great philosopher the Rock said, it 462 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 1: doesn't matter who got the ball in the back field, 463 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: all right, These boys who are handing the ball off 464 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: to freaking Kyle could have got back there and had 465 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: at least forty yards rushing. Probably say it didn't matter. Man, 466 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: These guys were come on, come on, come on now, Hey, 467 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, hey, the way that these boys were 468 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 1: blocking this was clinic, right. This was like literally on 469 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 1: offensive side of the ball for the Browns, this is 470 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: how we blocked, and on the defensive side, this is 471 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: exactly what you don't do. And it was disrespectful. There's 472 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: no other word to really apply towards it. Um and Kyle, 473 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: I felt like you were kind of giving the secondary 474 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: a little bit of a break. Don't give them a break. 475 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 1: The soundary got their tail whoop two, all right. I 476 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: was just saying that whenever it comes to Baker Mayfield 477 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: throwing the ball thirty times for a buck sixty five, 478 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: they didn't throw it down field a whole lot. You 479 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: got torched by a wide receiver, but really to a 480 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: wide receiver, we knew that occasion. Yeah, we already knew 481 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 1: that was a problem though. Yeah, we knew that. We 482 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: said that they were gonna have to throw the ball 483 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 1: underneath whenever they did, right, we knew that they were. 484 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: That you could not get lulled to sleep by the run. 485 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 1: We said that l I think was that Wednesday, we said, 486 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: don't get load of sleep by the run because these 487 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: guys are still landry, They're still freaking Beckham. They'll run 488 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,119 Speaker 1: by you and what it ended up happening, they get 489 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 1: they got load of sleep. Right the linebackers are rushing up, 490 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 1: you know, Jalen Smith kept running his forehead into another 491 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: grown man's chest. Hill and Woods and everybody else that 492 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: they put on the d line was getting thrown away 493 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: to the side. There were these guys weren't getting touched 494 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: for eight yards. But you're not getting any push at all, 495 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: any push. You're not getting any push at all from 496 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 1: your defensive line. They're starting to and it's starting to 497 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 1: look as though our edge rushers are small. It's that's 498 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: what I'm starting to see because it's so easy for 499 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 1: teams to just seal the adds on us and get 500 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 1: outside it. And I don't know, we talked last year 501 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 1: about or talked about the last year's defense maybe being 502 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: under sized, so you bring in bigger guys, but even 503 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,719 Speaker 1: those bigger guys are getting blown off the ball. And 504 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 1: so you can talk about the absence of Layton vander Ess. 505 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: You could talk about, you know, maybe on Lee or 506 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,439 Speaker 1: somebody would have played better at the linebacker position, but 507 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 1: these guys are not even able to get into any 508 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: rhythm or find an angle at all because there they 509 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: have their defensive their defensive line guys in their way. 510 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 1: It's these guys are getting blown off the ball, and 511 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: you can't have that. You cannot have that. Rob Yeah, sorry, 512 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: I got knocked off fellas. Um, it's everything you said, 513 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: the thing that jumped out to me, and I need 514 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,439 Speaker 1: to still watch it back. But we knew that the 515 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: Browns loved those outside zone runs. They loved going to 516 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: the outside and there was no like Heckma said, there 517 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: just wasn't edge containment. They just they hit the sideline 518 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: whenever they wanted and cut up field. And but it's 519 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: more than that, you know, it's it's they've had problems 520 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,239 Speaker 1: in the middle of their of their defensive line. And 521 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 1: I think it's really a problem through their entire middle 522 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: of their defense. You know, I think you're you're missing 523 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,159 Speaker 1: the absence of Gerald McCoy, You're missing the absence of 524 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: Layton vander esh And we've talked about the safeties and 525 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 1: and when you're when you're weak in the middle at times, 526 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: that that is where you can really have some trouble. 527 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,359 Speaker 1: But it really didn't Matt wherever the Browns wanted to attack. 528 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: Yesterday they were able to do it. And I keep 529 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,439 Speaker 1: going back to last year, but you guys have hit 530 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: on it. There's other reasons too. Something there were a 531 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 1: lot of mistackles and there were situations where they used 532 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:27,160 Speaker 1: the Cowboys aggressiveness against the overrun plays. And I don't 533 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 1: know how many times we talked about that last year. 534 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: I don't know what it takes to fix something like that. Yeah, 535 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 1: and heck, you sounded like you really agree with that one. 536 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,120 Speaker 1: I mean you you were you were in the background 537 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 1: saying yes, because of the overaggressiveness really kind of paid 538 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 1: dividends for Cleveland. I mean, you saw it a couple 539 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: times when finally Dantari Poe might have gotten in the backfield, 540 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: there was no run contain. He was just kind of 541 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 1: flying blind. And I know yesterday Isaiah said it while 542 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 1: we were watching the game, is oh, Poe looks a 543 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: little lost back there. And you could say that really 544 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: about the entire defense. But why And once again, this 545 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:04,919 Speaker 1: is a question that I know the coaching staff is 546 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:06,959 Speaker 1: maybe having to address. This is a question that all 547 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys fans have. Why is it that every week it's 548 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: a different section of the defense that just looks lost. Heck, month, 549 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 1: excuse me, I'm sorry, Come on, Isaiah. Yeah, usually usually 550 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: there's a different level. Hardly ever do you do it? 551 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: Does it ever happened or do you ever want all 552 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: three levels to get disrespected? Right? That's what happened to 553 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,119 Speaker 1: d line. We talked about them. The linebackers got swallowed up. 554 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: The secondary is what we what what we thought they were, right, 555 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, you swap out Thompson, you put 556 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: Wilson and he still gets torch as well. Worthy looks 557 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: like he was in no man's free. God Odell Beckham 558 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 1: is about to run a slat route with no coverage 559 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: in the middle. You might want to get inside leverage 560 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: on this guy. Just saying just maybe you have a 561 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: better chance of a playing defense against a fade route 562 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: than a slam route. Just saying, but you know this, 563 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: I mean this team, I don't know. I don't know 564 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: what to answer your cut your question. Car I don't 565 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: know where you find it at, Rob, I don't I 566 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, maybe they need to do some 567 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: bearcross this week. Maybe you need to bring out maybe 568 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: maybe need to Maybe you need to bring in Earl 569 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: Thomas for a workout, to challenge somebody's position. Maybe you 570 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 1: need to bring in Snacks Harrison to maybe wake these 571 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: guys are just for a workout. Sometimes it requires your 572 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 1: your job being threatened in order for you to kind 573 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: of have a wake up call. Yeah, that's that's it, man, 574 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: I'm all. I'm all about that the tryouts that we 575 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: do that when the kickers fail, we bring in a 576 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 1: bunch of kickers. We need to bring in some guys 577 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: because the effort, the effort isn't there. And even the 578 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: thing for me, and I asked you this before we 579 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: got started at Isaiah, I can't remember the last time 580 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: a guy went untouched on the reverse. I just especially 581 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: at this level. Maybe maybe at another level, Yeah, but 582 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 1: at this level, the pursuit angles alone. Guys are used 583 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: to take in those and there's no way you're going 584 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: to avoid the pursuit that What they did was they 585 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: obviously saw something. They opened up the game with a 586 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: I mean on the Landry to Odell Beckham. That was 587 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: a double reverse pass. That's saying that we know your 588 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: guys are over pursuing, you're over anxious, and you're undisciplined. 589 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: In your lane. We're gonna take advantage of it. And 590 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: they took advantage of it multiple times. I wish you 591 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: guys could could have had a camera in the back. 592 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 1: And when we were watching the film with Kyle and 593 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: during the game, and how many times what I say 594 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 1: Kyle the old school coach saying, don't follow the same color, right, 595 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: don't in other words, don't let one move beat beat 596 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: more than one person. And this overpursuit that the Cowboys have, 597 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: there is no discipline whatsoever. These are drills that you 598 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: go back to and OTAs right, which we didn't really have, 599 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: But there's drills that you do that that help you 600 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: with pursuit. Right. So you're coming in, you're tiered right, 601 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,479 Speaker 1: one persons here, when next person's two yards away from 602 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: that person, next person. So if they if they do 603 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: make a move and beat that one person, there's somebody 604 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: else waiting for them. What you see in the Cowboys 605 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 1: numerous times is one move beats four or five guys. 606 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: So one little, one little, one little little jump cut 607 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: literally four or five guys falling off to the sideline, 608 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: and then guys are just bouncing and getting big plays. 609 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 1: That's another reason they went they went play action and 610 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: they do this, but they went over and over and 611 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,239 Speaker 1: over again, and they just had it working for him, 612 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: you know, they just the misdirection and all that it was. 613 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: It was a clinic, man, It was a clinic up 614 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 1: front by Cleveland. There's no question about it. No, And Rob, Rob, 615 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: you know that football is a game of adjustments. When 616 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 1: do you make an adjustment to stop that you're down 617 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: thirty one fourteen? Where's the adjustment? It's not and do 618 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: the same thing. Not the coaches. We keep saying it. Yeah, 619 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: not the coach. You have to make adjust As a player, 620 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: you need to make an adjustment. Well, you need to 621 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 1: say and guess what, I'm over pursuing, guess what I'm 622 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: over committing and be disciplined. Man. But in order to 623 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: do that, you have to trust the guys that are upfronted. 624 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 1: Obviously they don't really trust them well. And also kind 625 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: of going to hecks point and Isaiah to bridge this 626 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: and I'm coming to you on this, Heck. But but 627 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,479 Speaker 1: whenever it comes to the coaching staff to make an 628 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: adjustment to stop play action, wouldn't it require stopping the 629 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 1: run first? Because whenever you have a dozen different and 630 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 1: running backs who somehow are on the fifty three man 631 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 1: roster from Cleveland running for nine yards per carry. It's 632 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 1: a little tough to sell out to stop the nine 633 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: yards per carry and also have guys in a secondary 634 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: that's already depleted enough to stop the play action. What 635 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: kind of adjustment needed to be made there? I mean, 636 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: I'm looking at teams make the adjustments versus us just 637 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: selling out to stop the runs, to stop Zeke and 638 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 1: it's working for them. How the hell can they work 639 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: for us? You you load up to stop the run 640 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: and then you give up three hundred and seven yards. Kyle, 641 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 1: So you ask me that question. In my answers, Hell, 642 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 1: I don't know everything what they do. Let's do what 643 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: they're doing to us. I mean three hundred and seven yards. Man, 644 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: the cowboysn't been playing football for sixty one dog, three 645 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: hundred and seven. You just pressed hecks easy button. I know, 646 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 1: Oh man, come on, dog, But you know, how do 647 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: we what adjustment do we stop that run? But that's 648 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: not what they're doing on us to stop our run. 649 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 1: But that's the problem. It's not an easy, straightforward answer 650 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,719 Speaker 1: because you just don't have the dogs on defense. You 651 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 1: just don't have those guys. You can't make those a job, 652 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: I easily. I disagree, Kyle, Okay, I disagree. They have 653 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: the guys, they're just not they're they're not playing like 654 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: the dogs that they have on the inside. It is no, no, 655 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: no, no no non. Right now, listen, listen, listen, listen. These 656 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: guys have some of the best athletes in the league. 657 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: You once they make a decision that they actually want 658 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 1: to play some ball and they I can't use that term, 659 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: but once they make the decision that they want to 660 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,719 Speaker 1: play some real ball and actually like care about their 661 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: manhood and care about the reputation, and care about actually 662 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: making plays instead of just collecting another game check, that's 663 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: when guys will start showing up to like to the 664 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: people that we know them as on paper. Right, That's 665 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: when you start seeing Jaala Smith beat this all American, 666 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 1: you know, all all amazing linebacker, all pro. That's when 667 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 1: you start seeing po show up. That's when we start 668 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: seeing dlag play like that one and a half million 669 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 1: dollars that he makes every game now, right, So that's 670 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 1: when you start seeing this. But if they don't care enough, 671 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: then you won't see that person. Everybody could tone it down, right, 672 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: But you have to make a decision if you want 673 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: to turn it up. So it's not that they don't 674 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 1: have the talent. They have the talent. Let's not act 675 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: like that. That's another excuse. Their talent is there. Make 676 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: the decision that you want to make some dog on plays. Coach, standback, coach, standback. 677 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: What do you do about guys loafing? What do you 678 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: do about that? You challenge? You challenge their position. So 679 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: like the safety's I've been saying it for the last 680 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: four weeks, you should have had Earl Thomas in here. 681 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: But guess what, Oh no, we're good with the guys 682 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: that we have, right, the guys up front. Once you 683 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: recognize the second game in the road that they're getting 684 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 1: figured and ran up the middle, bring another dude in 685 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: there for a workout. Oh crap, somebody's coming in at 686 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 1: my position. I better figure it out because I might 687 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: be about here. These are these are these are one 688 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 1: week contracts, you guys. Unless there's guaranteed money, guys are 689 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: playing week by week, getting checks week by week. You 690 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: can get fired any day. Get somebody else in there 691 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 1: that wants to play ball. When you see that person 692 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: coming in here to challenge your position. I bet you 693 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:01,359 Speaker 1: you get some get right. Yeah. And sometimes I think 694 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:05,400 Speaker 1: whenever you talk about these guys being dogs or being predators, 695 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,319 Speaker 1: it's sometimes there's a kitten, and the kitten might think 696 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 1: it could grow up to be a lion and roar 697 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,320 Speaker 1: like a lion. Sometimes it might just be a kitten, 698 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,360 Speaker 1: And I think that might be what we're looking at 699 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: at this point. Whenever it's the Dallas Cowboys defense, We're 700 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 1: gonna take a break when we come back. I promise 701 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,360 Speaker 1: Rob Phillips is gonna talk a little bit, because Heckma 702 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 1: and Isaiah are just rolling today and I love it. 703 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 1: But we'll promise that the Cowboys insiders gonna talk a 704 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: little bit and he's gonna fix this Cowboys offense.

As we now enter Week five 743 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: of the NFL season, the Cowboys currently sitting in a 744 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,760 Speaker 1: one and three tied for second in the NFC East. 745 00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: I laugh a little bit and unchuckle a little bit 746 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 1: when I say that, Yeah, the Cowboys are one in 747 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:03,799 Speaker 1: three and yet there's still just a half game out 748 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: of first place in the NFC East. Philadelphia had to 749 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:11,399 Speaker 1: win last night against San Francisco and what was entertaining game, 750 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,520 Speaker 1: but once again a weird game for an NFC East 751 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 1: opponent as well. But Rob Phillips, Harrison Isaiah standback. I'm 752 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: Kyle Yeomans, and Rob, I gave you the task going 753 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: into the break that you needed to fix the offense. 754 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: Now I gave you it's a little bit easier of 755 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: a task to fix the offense than it is to 756 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: fix the defense since the offense is putting up massive numbers. 757 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 1: But Rob, it really starts with just hanging onto the 758 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 1: football in key situations. Don't. Yeah, the Cowboys offense and 759 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,279 Speaker 1: defense right now, it's like a relationship and they're not 760 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 1: They're not good. They're not compatible right now. They're not 761 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 1: good for each other right now. That's the way I 762 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 1: look at it, because they're they're piling up yards like 763 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 1: they like you said, it's video game numbers, and Dak said, look, 764 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 1: I don't care about all that. I care about winning. 765 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 1: I don't buy into the fact that it's all arbage 766 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: time necessarily because look, he had two hundred yards at halftime. 767 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,879 Speaker 1: They are able to move the football when they want 768 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:11,959 Speaker 1: to when they don't turn it over. But we spend 769 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 1: a segment talking about the defense, and rightfully so, but 770 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:18,240 Speaker 1: it is all intertwined. I mean when you look at 771 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 1: what the Cowboys offense is doing right now. The Cowboys 772 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 1: lead the NFL in turnovers with nine right now, I 773 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 1: believe those nine turnovers have led to forty five points 774 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:35,959 Speaker 1: by the opposition in four games, including the last two weeks. 775 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 1: A pair of back to back turnovers have led to 776 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: two straight touchdowns and have put everybody behind the eight 777 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 1: ball the rest of the game, all this catchup mode. Conversely, 778 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 1: the Cowboys defense has two takeaways leading to three points 779 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: by the offense in four games. That is a forty 780 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 1: two point difference. That's if you want to point to. 781 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I know, the run defense and the big 782 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,360 Speaker 1: play it's given up in the secondary. All that stuff's bad, 783 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 1: but the offense isn't doing their part to help the 784 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense. And to some extent it's yeah, I mean, 785 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 1: I mean, to some extent, they they've almost got to 786 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 1: be perfect because you know, if you if they don't 787 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 1: have a productive drive. The Cowboys defense, they're struggling right now. 788 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,400 Speaker 1: But they've got they've got to be better. They've you 789 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 1: got to take care of the football. And you know, 790 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 1: I know we talked about and I agree with you, Isaiah, 791 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,319 Speaker 1: a lot of it's on the players. But you know, 792 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,399 Speaker 1: from a coaching standpoint, one of those fumbles, the sack 793 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 1: strip on Dak you left Tarret Steele on an island 794 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 1: against Miles Garrett, one of the best pass rushers in 795 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 1: the league and a wide stance who had a lot 796 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: of room to maneuver, and that was a key keep 797 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,359 Speaker 1: playing the game. So it's you know, when we talk 798 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 1: about why, there's why they're one and three, it's a 799 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: lot of different reasons, and I think everybody deserves some 800 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 1: credit here. I feel like we saw that play in 801 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: the film room, this pass. I think you did say. 802 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 1: I think you drew that up perfectly. I think you 803 00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 1: said exactly what he was gonna do. Isaiah, What did 804 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 1: he go out there and do he lined up in 805 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 1: the wide nine and what did he do? Strip? Sack, fumble? Dog? 806 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 1: Come on, there was no there's nip, no mystery to this. 807 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I said, go ahead, No, you got it, man, 808 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 1: it's all you that. I got nothing to say. I 809 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 1: just don't I don't understand from an officsive line standpoint. 810 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 1: And then there's Isaiah. You being a former quarterback, there's 811 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 1: a time clock in your head. You know where that 812 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 1: guy is. You know, he's over there, he's on your 813 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 1: he's in your eyesight. You can see him. Okay, step 814 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 1: up in the pocket. Don't let this guy abuse You're 815 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 1: undrafted free agent rookie that you know is having fits 816 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 1: on this side. Man. I just it's stuff like that 817 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 1: when we're at fourteen, when the when the score is 818 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 1: fourteen to seven, right we come Everything is looking good. 819 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 1: It's like we've writed everything, and then they tied up 820 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 1: and we need a play from our quarterback drive stall 821 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 1: out we don't. Then then we have the sack strip fumble. 822 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,840 Speaker 1: Then we have the longest run and we fumble fumble 823 00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 1: that this I mean, it's just one thing after another, 824 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 1: thing after another thing that leads to that nine turnovers 825 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: for forty five forty five points with killing ourselves and heck, 826 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 1: let's be real and let's be honest. I know I'm 827 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 1: probably gonna get a lot of people cursing me out 828 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,320 Speaker 1: that nine should be about eighteen and nine should be 829 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 1: about eighteen because could because because dak as many stats 830 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:24,359 Speaker 1: everybody's talking about. He got about his passing yards on it. 831 00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:27,920 Speaker 1: Hey man, you haven't been that that perfect. Because I 832 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 1: can think about about six plays yesterday that should have 833 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 1: been intercepted. At least at least six plays yesterday that 834 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 1: should have been intercepted that literally went through their hands 835 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: and defenders. Oh then let's go back a week against 836 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: the Seattle Trey Flowers were sitting on the ground in 837 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,920 Speaker 1: the ball found his way into his chests and he 838 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:45,799 Speaker 1: just somehow dropped it in and Gallop grabbed it and 839 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: took off running. So luck has been on the side 840 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 1: of the Cowboys for the last two to three weeks, 841 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,399 Speaker 1: and there should be at least nine more turnovers from 842 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 1: Dak should if the defense they've been found out what 843 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 1: the heck the judge machine is. But some of that, 844 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 1: you know, you're right, like the I think the first 845 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 1: drive against Seattle. You know he threw it in a 846 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 1: tight window and easily could have been picked off. He 847 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: was looking for a Mari and it happened later in 848 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 1: the game. You know, some of those throws in the 849 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 1: second half, he's pressing down field, he's trying to make 850 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,879 Speaker 1: something happen, and I get it, But you also put 851 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 1: yourself in that position with the mistakes early in the game, 852 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 1: where once again you're just a pass first comfort. Mike 853 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:23,840 Speaker 1: McCarthy said that we're a comfort behind team right now, 854 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 1: and that's unacceptable. Come from behind scene. Yes, that's what 855 00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:31,880 Speaker 1: you are. When you're getting the breaks beat off of you, 856 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,760 Speaker 1: you got to come from everybody's that. That's just what happens. 857 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 1: You're a come from behind. I hate that was the 858 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 1: one thing about that that just that didn't sit right 859 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 1: well and also unhappy about. It's not a good thing. 860 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: It's not a good thing and one thing that's really 861 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 1: it was frustrating to me, and it did lead to 862 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 1: the play we were talking about just a moment ago 863 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 1: with Miles Garrett and the strip sack fumble. But it 864 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:59,240 Speaker 1: was frustrating to see just how short of a leash 865 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,880 Speaker 1: that Tearing Steel had and Marcus Mosher a fantastic follow 866 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 1: on Twitter. He tweeted it out yesterday and it was 867 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 1: right before I was really going to say something about 868 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:12,240 Speaker 1: it as well. But it's frustrating because both Terrence Steele 869 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 1: and Darian Thompson were put out as starters in both 870 00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 1: positions that you knew there were other options at and 871 00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 1: the other options might be the better of the two, 872 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:23,880 Speaker 1: and you still put them out there as starters. They 873 00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 1: got torched. They got beat. It was a disaster on 874 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,000 Speaker 1: their part. And then the leash was rained in immediately 875 00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,359 Speaker 1: and Brandon Night was now at the right tackle. Why 876 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 1: didn't you do that from the beginning, That's my question. 877 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 1: Why was that a decision that was Yeah, that's mortallyzing 878 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 1: as a player, man, as a player, that that just 879 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 1: it kills you. Um, I don't care if your professional 880 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,719 Speaker 1: or not. Confidence goes a long ways. So to be 881 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 1: out there to be trusted in a sense, right, but 882 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,319 Speaker 1: to say, hey, if you mess up one time, yeah, 883 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,360 Speaker 1: pulling you that's that's whack man. And I'm not a 884 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 1: fan of that by the coaches. I mean, if you 885 00:44:58,239 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 1: knew that he was gonna be at a short leashes, 886 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 1: put the the dude out there, man, just put the 887 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 1: other guy out there, because you're killing as confident as 888 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,560 Speaker 1: you're killing your trust within your players in your locker 889 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: room as well. Yeah the Saints go ahead. Well no, 890 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 1: just on that real quick. Sorry heck. Mike was asked 891 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 1: about the decision at right tackle and he said they 892 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 1: worked different combinations during the week, but he said we 893 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 1: fully anticipated on both guys playing today. Who started the 894 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:25,759 Speaker 1: game and who didn't is irrelevant. I didn't understand that 895 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,279 Speaker 1: because I think I think you got a roll with 896 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 1: who you roll with and keep that. You know, the 897 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:33,800 Speaker 1: chemistry up there up front is important, and I would 898 00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:36,160 Speaker 1: have gone with Brandon Knight just I think Terrence Steele 899 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 1: is a good young prospect that they obviously see something 900 00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 1: in him. But with the matchup and Miles Garrett lines up. 901 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 1: You see him line up at left in certain right 902 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,399 Speaker 1: in certain situations, but they put him on the left 903 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 1: side to go up against that matchup, and Brandon Knight's 904 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:52,759 Speaker 1: got a little bit more experience in that situation and 905 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: they were able to shore up some things a little 906 00:45:54,719 --> 00:46:00,680 Speaker 1: bit after that. Yeah, yeah, said I mean no, I 907 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,879 Speaker 1: just Rob said it. And I just feel as though, 908 00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,200 Speaker 1: as far as back to what you were saying, Isaiah 909 00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:10,279 Speaker 1: about destroying is are getting tinkering with Still's confidence. You know, 910 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: you have to make adjustments in game adjustments. They did 911 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 1: that at the safety because you know Thompson gave up 912 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 1: that long touchdown. You have to get that guy out 913 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 1: of there, get someone in there that could at least 914 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,800 Speaker 1: stop shot up your defense or your offensive line, otherwise 915 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna have problems like that all day. You know. Look, 916 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:29,200 Speaker 1: there's injuries that's been this whole musical chairs up front 917 00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: for our offensive line, and we have to find the 918 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,520 Speaker 1: best five guys we can and we just haven't found 919 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 1: that that swing tackle yet. Period. We haven't. Yeah, but 920 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,080 Speaker 1: but you I mean, but you knew that going into 921 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,399 Speaker 1: the game, though. You knew no matter who you put 922 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:43,879 Speaker 1: out there, if they weren't gonna stop Garrett one on one, 923 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 1: So dog on it, don't pull him because he got 924 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,040 Speaker 1: beat by a freaking one of the best guys in 925 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 1: the league right now, that's Bs. And then Thompson, he 926 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 1: is who he's been all year. Thompson comes up and 927 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,160 Speaker 1: he hits the run. He does a good job on 928 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 1: the run, right, he puts his head in there. He 929 00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 1: definitely comes up aggressively on that, but in passive as 930 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 1: he sucks. Right. It's called it how it is. And 931 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:05,319 Speaker 1: that's why you as an ownership as management gokia Earl 932 00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:07,879 Speaker 1: Thomas and stopped making woes and excuses for the guys 933 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 1: that you have sick. Well, it certainly was. It was 934 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 1: frustrating on both sides of the football. All three phases 935 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:17,799 Speaker 1: were not good yesterday, and it's a big reason why 936 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,800 Speaker 1: you were down as much as you were down forty 937 00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 1: one fourteen at one point to the Cleveland Browns, a 938 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 1: team that hadn't been over five hundred since twenty fourteen. 939 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:28,920 Speaker 1: I know this is a different Cleveland Browns team, but 940 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:30,839 Speaker 1: it was still frustrating. And it's the first time they've 941 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:35,320 Speaker 1: beaten you as a franchise since nineteen ninety four, twenty 942 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 1: six years. I don't think you guys want to know 943 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 1: where I was in nineteen ninety four.
