But that so, man, the 57 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys are going to face the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. 58 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: They are a nine point favorite in this football game. 59 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: That's what Vegas is saying. So they're basically in Las 60 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: Vegas saying, hey, we trust the Cowboys that this was 61 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: a stinker against the Broncos. They're gonna get right back 62 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: and go forward. Wednesday is their next practice here off today. 63 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: When you see a line like that, guys, how do 64 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,839 Speaker 1: you feel? It makes me a little nervous, um, just 65 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: because you know, the week that we're coming off of 66 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: playing against the Broncos. There is a lot of stuff 67 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: that we need to fix, and mainly what we need 68 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: to fix this I'm listening to Dan Quinn, you know, 69 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: yesterday and his press conference, and it sounds like he's 70 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: talking about people not giving a hundred percent effort, the hustling, 71 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: not the one hundred. Yeah. So I mean, if you're 72 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 1: gonna have a nine point spread, you're gonna have to 73 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 1: be clicking on all cylinders and everybody needs to buy 74 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: back in in order for you to cover that. So 75 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: it makes me a little nervous because we came off 76 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 1: a pretty pretty disastrous performance on Sunday. Yeah, it makes 77 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: me nervous too, because I didn't like how all run 78 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 1: defense was handled. Now I'm not saying Atlanta got, you know, 79 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,359 Speaker 1: one of the premier rushing attacks or one of the 80 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: premier offenses in football, but they still can run the 81 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: ball a little bit and they got Matt Ryan out 82 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: there behind the himp or at the quarterback position, and 83 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: he's seemed pretty much everything. The guy's been in the 84 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: league forever, so it's gonna be hard to kind of 85 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: get him off his game and disguise things against him. 86 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: But we know he can't be got. But if we 87 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: go out there like we did against the Broncos, you know, 88 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 1: feeling themselves and going out there saying, hi, we can 89 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: just flip switch and won't be able to go ahead 90 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: and turn it on. I think that's a bad recipe 91 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 1: right there. Man. I think this coaching staff think they 92 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 1: need to be on this team throughout the week, just 93 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: letting them know, like, man, hey, these guys get paid 94 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: too over there. And there was a lot of bulletin 95 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 1: board material, you know, mainly by myself and a couple 96 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: other people out there who gave the Broncos bulletin board material. 97 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: But for the most part, man, they need to keep 98 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: their heads low and go out here in Atlanta and 99 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: let them know that Atlanta does not deserve to be 100 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: on the same field. Stop on their throats from the beginning. 101 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: I think what we did last week, once we gave 102 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: bront the Broncos juice. We gave him a little bit 103 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: of momentum. They stopped us on fourth down a couple 104 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: of times, a couple of penalties, couple stalled out drives, 105 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 1: and they felt like, hey, we can hang with these boys. 106 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: But if we go out there and shut it down early, 107 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: jump on this Atlanta team early, I'm sure they'll go 108 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: ahead and close it up and get ready for next 109 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: week and we can get back in the wind. Call them, 110 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: but we cannot sleep on this team because, like you said, 111 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 1: the professionals as well, we know that we know that 112 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: Atlanta has seen a lot of dan quinn. All right, 113 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 1: Matt Bryan, you say Matt Ryan has seen everything. He's 114 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: seen a lot of dan Quinna. So it's gonna be 115 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: a nice little chess game, I believe on Sunday between 116 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan offensive coordinator and then my man DQ. You 117 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, to get us back on track, 118 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: what's DQ going, what's he gonna do to provide some 119 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,239 Speaker 1: pressure out there, because it's like that d Lion last 120 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: art Ard Lion last week. It was like, man, they 121 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: got stagnant out there, there was no pressure. Teddy two 122 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: Gloves went out there and picked. I'm just telling you, listen, 123 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: we all agree that we were sleep walking over We 124 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: slept walk out there, and like I said, I heard 125 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: dan Quinn say out of his own mouth that the 126 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 1: thing that was a little disappointing was that you weren't 127 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: seeing guys hustling to the ball like they usually do 128 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: as far as uh. There were a lot too many 129 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: one on one tackles instead of gang tacklers, where if if, 130 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: if you have three or four guys running to the ball, 131 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,679 Speaker 1: when that first person misses the tackle, then that second 132 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: and third person to be able to clean him up. 133 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: And he said he didn't see enough of that in 134 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 1: the previous game. And to me, that sounds like hustle 135 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 1: yea and being there and not depending on your teammate 136 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: to make the play, but going and make sure you 137 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: doing what you're supposed to do just in case he doesn't. 138 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: And it was one clip. There was one clip that 139 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: we saw from that game I sent to y'all in 140 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: the in the group chat we had, and it was 141 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,679 Speaker 1: it was a pretty much a microcosm of what happened 142 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: against the Broncos. When number thirty three Williams he ran 143 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: up the gut for about six yards. There was a 144 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: couple of cowboys jumped on him and he ended up 145 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: driving them boards another six yards through the defensive tackle 146 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: off of them. You know, get up off from me 147 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: out here. I don't know what Kazy was doing because 148 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: Casey just came in and just kind of threw a 149 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: shoulder and fell to the ground. It just looked super bad. 150 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: But Javarte runs for another twenty yards after that, And 151 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: that's what dan Quinn was talking about. There wasn't enough 152 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: people hustling, nothing, enough people finishing out there. And when 153 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: you do that, you're in trouble. You get beat down. 154 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: The great brand sham Man in the end of Wet 155 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: Wet bandamaham over Man behind us, you know, chopping it up. 156 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: So it had it had to give a salute to 157 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: the to the legend right there. The National Football League 158 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: was full of teams that just didn't have their best 159 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: effort on Sunday. So looking at the Cowboys and the 160 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: fact that they were right there in the mix with 161 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: other teams, does it give you any pause in the 162 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: locker room? Do you do you guys in the room saying, hey, look, 163 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: yeah we played bad, but guess what a whole lot 164 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: of league played that yesterday too, I mean to some extent, 165 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: But but I think you're professional enough to look in 166 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 1: the mirror and say that the only one that really 167 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: mattered is you not playing up to the standard that 168 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: that you've set throughout the first seven games of the season. 169 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: And uh, we can look back and say, you know, 170 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: LA played this way? Whoever played this way? But the 171 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,439 Speaker 1: team in our division that we're trying to catch is 172 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals, and they won all right out the quarterback. 173 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: I mean, they still won. So the team that we're 174 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: trying to chase, an NFC, who were who we want 175 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,719 Speaker 1: to beat out to get that number one spot and 176 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 1: get that first bye week, they won last week. So 177 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: we can't afford to be like every other team in 178 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: the league. We need to be on our game every 179 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: every time we go out there on the field and 180 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: lead that lead that field with a W. Yeah, And 181 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: you can't. You can't look out of the squads because 182 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: I mean, that's when it comes into the built in 183 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 1: excuse and you're like, well, everybody messed up, so it's 184 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: all right, we'll be back next week, and then you'll 185 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: come back next week and perform the same way and 186 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: get beat down. So you can't worry about what everybody 187 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: else is doing out there. You gotta focus and they've 188 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: done a good job. But it's so far this season, 189 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: you know, taking the game back game play back play 190 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: a little cliche, but they've been doing it at a 191 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 1: pretty good job so far this season. So I don't 192 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 1: think they can look at any other team. They just 193 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: got to focus up and say, hey, we went out there, 194 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: we got beat down. You gotta take accountability, and so 195 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:25,839 Speaker 1: far this season they've been doing a great job of 196 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,719 Speaker 1: keeping each other accountable, whether it's coaches, players, whatever it 197 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,719 Speaker 1: may be. They've done a great job of doing that 198 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 1: so far. So they got to take accountability for it 199 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: and say, hey, let's move forward. You know, we watched 200 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: the tape, got our corrections. Let's move forward and hopefully 201 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: start a new when we go against Atlanta, because like 202 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,199 Speaker 1: I said, we can't sleep on them either, because they cut, 203 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:43,599 Speaker 1: they mess around and come out here and look like 204 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: Teddy two gloves for sure, all right. Jerry Jones on 205 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: one or five three the Fan Today had this to 206 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: say when asked about offensive tackle Tyrn Smith, if you'll 207 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: play against Atlanta, he says it will get better as 208 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: we go along, so I don't look at it as 209 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,719 Speaker 1: long term. But he says that you know there's a 210 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 1: chance he might not play. So if Tyron Smith is 211 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: not a left tackle, Danny, what combination do you want 212 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 1: to change? Get? Didn't getting right? Out right? Just a 213 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: set up getting right? It's just a shop. Yes, neuis 214 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: no Bill Bill Bill Parcel, Bill Bill Parcells. Who's to 215 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: have a line where he said, I reserve the right 216 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: to change my mind. Change my mind? Ain't jasen? Okay, 217 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: um Leo Collins needs to be playing left tackle. Okay, 218 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: he needs to be playing left tackle. When gave still 219 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: the shot, which you know, against my wishes, shot to 220 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: get out there and play left tackle, and it did 221 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 1: not work out. Put that man in the spot that 222 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: he earned on the right side of your officsive line 223 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: at right tackle. Put Leela left and let it roll. Okay, 224 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, if Leo plays, what 225 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:02,839 Speaker 1: we do know is at least the right side is 226 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: gonna be good. Well, we don't want to go out 227 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 1: there with us having to worry about both sides of 228 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: our offensive line, both tackles struggling, and we having to 229 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,839 Speaker 1: figure out ways to help them out with chips or 230 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: tight ends coming in motion over and chipping that way. 231 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 1: Our backs chipping on the left side. We don't want 232 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 1: to have to do that. So put my man still 233 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 1: back where he's been performing to his best best of 234 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 1: visibility and let LC see what he can do with 235 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: his fifty meal. Yeah. I might have to agree with 236 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: you there, d Mac. I know all one of them 237 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 1: on the left side last last week because I thought, 238 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 1: you know, he had momentum going. He was our best 239 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: tack or our best offensive lineman outside the two Hall 240 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: of Famers, So go ahead and move him over there. 241 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: But he struggled immensely and he gave up nine pressures. 242 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,719 Speaker 1: I think he gave up two sacks as well, So 243 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: that was a big hurt to his confidence. Like that 244 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,959 Speaker 1: stabbed his confidence a little bit. So I'm gonna put 245 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: him back on that right side and hopefully he's able 246 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: to perform like he did in those previous five or 247 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: six games that he was at the right tackle, just 248 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,079 Speaker 1: to get his confidence back up there, because if we 249 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 1: had a guy going where he thought, you know, I'm 250 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: playing at this such a high level, I could be 251 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 1: one of these Pro Bowl tackles as well, and we 252 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 1: want to keep that momentum going. We don't want to 253 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: back to back weeks where he's getting drums on the 254 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: left side. Now, if he goes back to the right 255 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: side and gets drummed as well, then I mean that 256 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: you had your opportunity and then your loss. It they 257 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: took it from, and they took it from So I'm 258 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 1: gonna put him back on the right side where he 259 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 1: feels more comfortable. He's a naturally a right handed guy, 260 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: so hopefully he's able to block a little bit better 261 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: on that side, handle all the stunts they got going 262 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: over there, and get his confidence back up. And then, 263 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,599 Speaker 1: like you said, if if Lyell stinks it up on 264 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: the left side, we know we're gonna have Terrence or 265 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 1: Tyron Smith come back there eventually, so we'll know that 266 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 1: left side is gonna be down solidified if he's in 267 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: the game, which I don't know. I mean, these injuries 268 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 1: are piling up, but at least if he can hold 269 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 1: it down on the right side, we got one side secure, 270 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: and then when Tyron gets back, he can do that 271 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 1: left side, and then we got all Pro Pro Bowl 272 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: potential guy as a swing tackle. But I still see 273 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: it as a good problem to have, but we got 274 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,599 Speaker 1: to solidify one side and hopefully still is able to 275 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,319 Speaker 1: do that. A right nui NOUI listen, I know you 276 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: heard Church over here talking about you know, we expect 277 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: Tyron Smith to be back and all this other stuff. 278 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: What we did expect Tyren Smith to be is out. Okay, 279 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: we expect him to be out. So my confidence in 280 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 1: having him for long term and a stretch of eight 281 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: nine games carrying you into the playoffs, it's really low. 282 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 1: It's really low because we talked to the beginning of 283 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: the season about the old two thy ten Tyrnt Smith 284 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,199 Speaker 1: and feeling better than you ever felt. Now we got bonespurs, 285 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: we let the we let the ankle sprain, you know, slide, 286 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: because that was one of those things where it just happened. 287 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: But now you know, now you getting into having bones, 288 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: furs and stuff that that you really can't explain and 289 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: really can't put a time table on when you'll be 290 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 1: back in the game. Yeah, that that is concerning to 291 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: me at the left tackle position. So no, we don't 292 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 1: we don't really expect Tyren Smith to be back anytime soon. 293 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: If we want him to be healthy enough to carry 294 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: us through the end of the season and into the playoffs. Danny, 295 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna be really upset to find out 296 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna keep still at that left tackles. I just 297 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: believe that's what they're gonna do. That's gonna be upset. 298 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 1: I mean while he running around. Really, because we're talking 299 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 1: about you guys were professional players. We're talking about trying 300 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,599 Speaker 1: to have le Collins do something he hasn't done in 301 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 1: the NFL, play left tackle. Yes, he did it at LSU, 302 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,439 Speaker 1: but now you talk about put him in here in 303 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: the Nashville Football League left tackle. I don't know about that, man, 304 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: But I'm confused on the thought process, right because still, 305 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: I mean he played. They worked on his training camp, 306 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: training camp, you know what I'm saying, Training camp and 307 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: training camp. All right, that's when you get your hand 308 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: you try to work on, get your hand placement right, 309 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: get your foot places right. But you ain't really seeing 310 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: them dogs coming around that corner like he saw on Sunday. 311 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: All right, So he's gonna be in the same position 312 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: that Leo Collins was in. All right, let's see if 313 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: he can do it. But he played in the SEC 314 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 1: at left tackle. He got drafted, he played with them 315 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: knowing that he had experienced playing the left tackle position. 316 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: Give him a shot. My man still is not like 317 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: it's not fair, But I don't think it's gonna work 318 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 1: out for him at left tackle should be a he 319 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: should stay on that right side, the natural right side. Yeah, 320 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: I don't, I don't. I don't think it's gonna work 321 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: out for him. And they're gonna continue to put him 322 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: out there and continue to ruin this dude when you 323 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: already uh you know, lifted him up from last year 324 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: to be a starting right tackle in the league. I 325 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 1: just don't think it makes sense. So let me come 326 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: back it this way. We saw Terrence still getting a 327 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: little bit of help. What if you put him back 328 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: at left tackle and you just say, okay, look, we 329 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: know we got to put Dalton Schultz over here, Jeremy 330 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: Sprinkle over here. We just gotta just from the jump, 331 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: go ahead and help this guy at the left tackle 332 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: spot and keep LC over at the right. Would that 333 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: make you feel any better day? You know? I mean 334 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: as far as protection, it would, But for him as 335 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 1: a player, it would make me feel better. I mean, 336 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 1: like I said, this guy is becoming a better, better 337 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: player in the league. His progress is now being halted 338 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: by injury to Tyrn Smith and Leel not wanting to 339 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: play left. For us people not feeling comfortable enough for 340 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: him playing level. We don't feel comfortable with still playing left, 341 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: but we do feel good with him playing on the 342 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: right side. Like I'm like, if you can, if you 343 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: have the option to show up one side and not 344 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: be uh, you know, having leakage on both, then I'm 345 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 1: going to show up with that one side and see 346 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: what see what my fifty million dollar guy has on 347 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: the left. I'm gonna just see because what we've seen 348 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: from Terry still, like you said, nine pressures, two sacks, 349 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: and the pressures that were like he wasn't touching the 350 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: guy and it's hand like I think it's hand placement, 351 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: Like he wasn't able to really to really get the 352 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: groove going on that side. So let's let's see what 353 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: seventy one has. Let's see try it out. And if 354 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: they do end up putting still on that left side, Nui, 355 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to They're gonna have to bring some 356 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: protection with them, Like they're gonna have to have either 357 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: shoults or Zeke polar chip on the way out, whatever 358 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: it may be, because like Daddy said, he struggled. He struggled, 359 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: and it wasn't just like he was getting just bull 360 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: like hit with a doll. These different moves, cats seem 361 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: to be able to just get around them with the quickness, 362 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: just hit him with the one one little inside out 363 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: move and then they're around the corner. So it maybe 364 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 1: you know his foot placement, he's not used to being 365 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 1: on that left side, move leading with that left side, 366 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 1: or hand placement with the left hand or anything like that, 367 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: and maybe stronger with the right. But if they do 368 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: put him out there, he's definitely gonna need help, definitely 369 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: have to chip on with some with some tight ends, 370 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: some running backs, whatever the case may be. Maybe some 371 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: screens that help slow that pass rush down. But Kelly Moore, 372 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: get into your bag like you've been in all season. 373 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: Help these guys out and hopefully we can get his 374 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: offense back back rolling.

Maybe Tyrn Smith decides to call 435 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:07,199 Speaker 1: it a career at the end. Is this when you're saying, hey, 436 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 1: put put college left tackle now? Is this a move 437 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 1: that you could make now and anticipated going in the 438 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 1: next year that maybe college is your tackle long term? 439 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 1: And does Collins even go to a guy like Joe 440 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: Philbery offensive line coach, and said, you know what, put 441 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 1: me at left tackle? Man? I don't know. I think 442 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: you won't know unless you put him out there. You know, 443 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: if you just keep saying that he's you know, that's 444 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: still maybe better, or we don't know if if Collins 445 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: is gonna be able to adjust to being a left tackle, 446 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: then we won't We won't even be able to answer 447 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: that question at the end of the season. So I 448 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: to your point, if that's the case, then yeah, try 449 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: him out, because what we know is still is not 450 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 1: the answer at left tackle. He's the answer at right tackle. 451 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: What we know is is making fifty meal all right, 452 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,479 Speaker 1: So trying to figure out how you're going to move 453 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: into next year with him playing guard, what you're gonna 454 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: do with Terrence Still What if Tyren Smith decides that 455 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,719 Speaker 1: he's not coming back. Try lay ill and left tackle, 456 00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: see how it works. Or give him a couple of 457 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 1: games games, right, because you already know it's a tough adjustment, 458 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: So give him a couple of games, see if he 459 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,199 Speaker 1: continues to get better, and then make your decision at 460 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: the in the year or to help you, yeah, to 461 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: that point, you gotta at least try the guy out there. 462 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 1: We saw what happened last week with Terren. Still I'm 463 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: gonna keep bringing up. He had what eleven was an 464 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 1: eleven hurries, now eleven hurries nine pressures and gave up 465 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: two sacks. So he definitely struggles on that left side. 466 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: He's more predominantly on the right side. He's been holding 467 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: down for a couple of games over there, So I 468 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: leave him over there and then, lyell, as far as 469 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: you know Tyren Smith, maybe he wants to leave or 470 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:31,439 Speaker 1: maybe he wants to you know, retire at the end 471 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,920 Speaker 1: of the season. I think you got you gotta see 472 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: what else can do there first, So like you said, 473 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: I would put him out there. If Tyren can't go 474 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: this week, I put him out there just to see 475 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:40,919 Speaker 1: what he can do. Now if he if he ends 476 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 1: up going out there and playing lights out and being 477 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 1: that guy, then definitely you would have a good problem 478 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: on your hands, because if Tyren Smith walked away, you 479 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 1: can easily just slide ELC right in there. So I 480 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 1: think they got to give him an option out there 481 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 1: just to see. I don't think, you know, if they 482 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 1: don't give him any type of reps out there, I 483 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: don't think you can go into next year saying all right, 484 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 1: if if Tyren Smith, if Tyren Smith's out, else just 485 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: can slide in there because he had no reps that 486 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 1: he hasn't done it since college. So I think in 487 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: order for us to get that look, I would think 488 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 1: they would have to put him in there for at 489 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: least a game to see how he can adjust to it. 490 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: But um, we just know for a fact that Terrence 491 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: still right now at that at that right side, he's good. 492 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 1: Left side, he struggles a bit. Yeah, it corrected, let's 493 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: correct the eleven eleven and hurries in two sexs. He 494 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: gave up a lot of that's a rough day. I 495 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: was definitely wrong about that transition, but I thought for sure, 496 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 1: this guy's rolling right now. He can go from the 497 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: right to the left, no problem. But it's a lot 498 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 1: of it's a lot harder than than anticipated because I 499 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: mean the guys on the left side, they're coming from 500 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: the blind side, So you're not gonna have a lot 501 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 1: of help out there. And we've seen when you got 502 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: put on the island as a tackle. If you ain't ready, 503 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,439 Speaker 1: they're gonna take you to school out there. Yeah, it's 504 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: on film, so you know what to expect when you 505 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: see still a lot there left tackles. We get ready 506 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: to dance one on ones, They're gonna figure out the 507 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: way to get those one on ones. So the Cowboys 508 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: next three games will be home against the Atlanta Falcons, 509 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,159 Speaker 1: on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs, and then 510 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: their home game Thanksgiving Day against the Las Vegas Raiders. 511 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: And we'll see exactly what these defensive coordinators come up with. 512 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,360 Speaker 1: Is they get ready to go up against this Cowboys 513 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: offensive line. Now there's something Danny you wanted to bring 514 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: up from Sunday's game. The Cowboys are down getting drilled 515 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: and dan Quinn dan Quinn, but Mike McCarthy decides that 516 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: he wants to keep Dak Prescott and the first team 517 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: offense out there. He says they wanted to get into 518 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: two minute drill work. That was the reasoning. There a 519 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: lot of people on social media saying, why in the 520 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 1: heck is Dak Prescott out there having come off of 521 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: a calf injury and a blowout where the game has 522 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: already been decided. Yeah. Man, that's one of those things 523 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: where I'm like, you know, it's not a problem till 524 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: it's a problem. All right. You know, you don't suffer 525 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 1: any setbacks because, you know, because he didn't get hurt. 526 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 1: So then it seems like, Okay, we did get some 527 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 1: two minute drill work, we did score two touch downs, 528 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: but it only takes one play and then and then, 529 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: not only the fans are questioning you, the ownership and 530 00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 1: the organization is questioning why you would have this guy 531 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 1: out here knowing that he came off for injury all 532 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 1: of last year. We see, we saw what it did 533 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,479 Speaker 1: to our team last year. He had to should shoulder 534 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: injury during training camp. Well he had to sit out. 535 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 1: Now you got a calf injury. The best thing for 536 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: our team and our chances to make it far into 537 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: the playoffs and possibly make a Super Bowl, it is 538 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 1: for Dak Prescott to be healthy. Without him healthy, this 539 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 1: left tackle stuff don't matter, right, tackle stuff don't matter 540 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 1: how good the defense plays, how bad, None of that 541 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: matters if Dak Prescott is not healthy. And I don't 542 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: want to hear nothing about Cooper Rush being able to 543 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: come in and carry the team if Dak Prescott is 544 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 1: out for an extended period of time, because that ain't 545 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 1: the case. So I think he was risky. I ain't 546 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: the coach, but if it was me, I would have 547 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: pulled my under the sixty million dollars man out of 548 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 1: the game. I ain't. Now if we had double g's 549 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: to back up, you know, be a different story. But 550 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 1: you know before that's the story for another day. But um, 551 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: you know, I you know, I don't want to kill 552 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,479 Speaker 1: him for it. But if if that, you know, if 553 00:25:58,480 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: he didn't come off that injury, like if he was 554 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: an injury that week before and we went out there 555 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: and we got drummed, I wouldn't mind him saying, all right, look, 556 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: we need some type of momentum going forward to next week, 557 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 1: so let's work on this two minute drill and get 558 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 1: that thing going. And they did. They got two touchdowns. 559 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: They showed that they you know, they can move the 560 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: ball a little bit. But would come to him coming 561 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: off that calf injury that week before. I just don't 562 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 1: see the reward the risk verse reward there by keeping 563 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,959 Speaker 1: him out there any longer. We've seen when he hurt 564 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: that calf. He didn't even get hit, it was just 565 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: a non contact hit. He was rolling out through the 566 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 1: ball off his calf, and you know he got hurt 567 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: by it. So him just coming off of that calf 568 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 1: muscle injury his first game back, if we're getting drum 569 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: like that, I gotta sit him on the bench. I 570 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 1: understand what he tried to do, trying to get you know, 571 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: at least have some good film out there for this 572 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: offense so they can go forward thinking, all right, you 573 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: know that was just a bumping the road. We can 574 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: get back to ourselves. But when he's coming off a 575 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 1: calf injury like that just a week before or two 576 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: weeks before, and he was kind of shaky for him 577 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 1: coming into this game, I just don't see the reward 578 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: of having him out there. It ain't like you can 579 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: come back and get a victory by any stretch of 580 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: the imagination. So I think Cooper rushould have just came 581 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: in there and fielding the as a couple of minutes 582 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: and we called it a day from that because, like 583 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: you said, we do not want I mean no disrespect 584 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: to Cooper Rush, but we do not want Rush in 585 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 1: there for a large chunk of this season. If it's 586 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 1: spot duty, sure he can come in there and do 587 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: a Minnesota type game and perform well. But when it 588 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: comes to a stretch and he's coordinated to start game 589 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: planning for Cooper Rush, I don't think he'll survive very long. 590 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: So we just gotta keep that man healthy. And by 591 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 1: keeping them healthy, we gotta keep him off the field 592 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: when we're getting our busts kicked like we were last weekend. 593 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: And I think it's fair to say that you possibly 594 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 1: already have a hamper to Mark Cooper. You got a 595 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 1: zeke who's sitting on the sideline icing his knee, and 596 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 1: then you know, saying, now you got your quarterback out there, 597 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: you know, in harm's way, going into you know, a 598 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: position in the game where we have no chance of 599 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 1: coming back. I just think I think it was a 600 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 1: really risky moment. You know, thankfully we you know, we 601 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 1: made it out of there, no injury, that gets healthy 602 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: and gonna play this week. But it was it was 603 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: a very worrisome uh you know, couple of drives For me. 604 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: I was like, man, I just don't get it because 605 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: we got so much going on right now. We just 606 00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: came out for a six game win streak, were three 607 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: games ahead in our division. Like, it's just you know, 608 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: it's not like we're pressing to make sure we gotta 609 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: get this or we gotta get this victory. We gotta 610 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: do something here. We got space, We got time to 611 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: go ahead and let guys rest if need be. If 612 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 1: we're getting drum like that, get him out the game. 613 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: We got time because our division is so terrible. So 614 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 1: to me, it was a questionable move. I could see 615 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:19,439 Speaker 1: the I could see the pros, but I just think 616 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: the cons outweighed the pros. And this and this, uh 617 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: in this decision, man, A part of me says, yes, 618 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: this is truth, what you guys are saying, what we're 619 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: talking about, this is true. But the other part of 620 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: me wonders, are we being too hard on these guys 621 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: after this is a team that until this game, the 622 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: other seven games were good football games. They won six 623 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: of them. The game against Tampa, you're right there at 624 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: the end. Can't we give him a mulligan, like you're 625 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 1: doing golf, Danny can't give it? Yeah, Bury you to golf. 626 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I'm definitely taking a mulligan on that old 627 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: don I gave a mulligan. They're not saying that's okay, 628 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: they slept walk that's not who we were. That ain't 629 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: who that's not who we are. We won six straight. 630 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: It's hard to keep a street going. Nobody wins them all. 631 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: And I said, it's fine, We're gonna be okay. We 632 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: all right, that's a mulligan. I'm not The season ain't 633 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: over the sky, ain't falling sixty two, both of y'all. 634 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: This Leto has both of y'all. This. We go out 635 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: against Atlanta this week and let's just say it's a 636 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: lot closer than we wanted to be, Like we had 637 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 1: to scratching claw just to get back in and we 638 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: want a close one at home. Do you start to 639 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: worry them? Absolutely not. Atlanta's playing good football. Okay, Atlanta 640 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: has turned around and they beat some teams. I think 641 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: they got a five hundred record. Now, yeah, they they're 642 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: playing good football. I don't expect it to be easy, 643 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: especially with the history of US playing Atlanta, so for 644 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: some reason when we playing Atlanta, it's always one of 645 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: those games. It's always one of those games. So Nah, 646 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: the only thing that matters is a winner. As Pittsburgh, 647 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: it don't matter how you win. I listened to Mike 648 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: Thomlins said, we're not from the Paul jobs and nobody 649 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: for how were winning these games or we're winning all right, 650 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: that's and that's all that matters. I don't care how 651 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: close to it was, what you think, Nellie. I look 652 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: at this and I just keep saying that you're not 653 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: gonna play sixteen seventeen great games. You're not. You're gonna 654 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: have a stinker. And I am concerned about the offensive line. 655 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: That's why we started about it, and we spent a 656 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: whole lot of time talking about it with this this show. 657 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: But I'll also kind of throw in this, how many 658 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: other coordinators they got to face they could put together 659 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: a scheme like Big Fangio. I mean Big Fangio came 660 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 1: out here, had he basically had something for everything Kellen 661 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: Moore wanted to do. And how many other teams can 662 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 1: come out and give you that same kind of personnel, 663 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: especially from the secondary standpoint that the Denver Broncos did. 664 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 1: I just don't know. I don't think Atlantic can play 665 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: that kind of defense on this Cowboys football team. Yeah 666 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: that's just good. Yeah, but yeah, you gotta have a 667 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: strong secondary, and we knew that was the strength of 668 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: this Denver team coming into the game. They just traded 669 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: away Vaughan Miller. We thought their front seven wasn't going 670 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: to be able to hang with what the Cowboys had 671 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: going on, and they put a lot of pressure on 672 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: their secondary because they sat the box. They say, you 673 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: know what, Dak, you're coming off of a calf injury. 674 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: We want to see if you still got it. We 675 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 1: can see if you can steal dices apart and win 676 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: it on your arm alone. And they had a great 677 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: game play because they had an extremely strong secondary out there. 678 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: Sir Tam Fuller and those boys Derby they locked down 679 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: Simmons as well. They locked down out there, and they 680 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:17,959 Speaker 1: made it hard for our receivers. They had a lot 681 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: of windows out there that it was a tough contested. 682 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: If it was a catcher would have been contested. So, 683 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: I mean, they had a strong secondary. And I don't 684 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: think I think you're right new Me. I don't think 685 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: we're gonna go against for the rest of the remaining 686 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: of the regular season a secondary as strong as Denvers 687 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: that all allowed him to stack the box like that 688 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:34,719 Speaker 1: and still be able to strap up on the back 689 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: and listen, We'll listen in fairness to killing more in 690 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: our offense, all right, we had a couple of plays 691 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: where Cede Lamb was behind the defense and we missed it. 692 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 1: We had dropped out Tony Pollard, you know what I'm saying. 693 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: Like we had some plays where we could have Those 694 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: would have been huge plays for our offense, all right, 695 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: and it would have been it would have turned the game. 696 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: And we just, like I said, we for some reason, 697 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 1: the way that we went out to the game, I 698 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: think our focus was a little off. I'm not sure 699 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: how you really put it into words, but something just 700 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: wasn't clicking with us. But the opportunities for us to 701 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 1: make those plays, as good as their defense did play, 702 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: they were still out there. We just we just didn't 703 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: capitalize on those plays. And that hadn't happened for us 704 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 1: all season. We had usually been the team who we 705 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: capitalized on every opportunity that we made, and I think 706 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: that punt just was a sign for how the game 707 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,239 Speaker 1: was going for us that punp block where that's an 708 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: opportunity that we capitalized on and it just did not 709 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 1: fall away, And it was you know, I was like, yeah, 710 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: this is this is How would you feel? D Mac? 711 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: You know we both did it. We both was a 712 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: special team of them, Jody meeting, so we know how 713 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: it was. But how would you feel if that was 714 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: the if you if you were in right shoes, you know, 715 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: we got a block punt, it went over the line 716 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, you touched it, which means they get the 717 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: ball back. Would you feel like, man, you know, I 718 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: gotta I gotta play better or is it just like man, 719 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 1: I didn't even know that rule. I was just going 720 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 1: out there trying to make a play. Yeah, I mean 721 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: in his situation, I don't think that that. I don't 722 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: think anybody would have had the wherewithal to say, hey, 723 00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 1: that ball actually crossed a line of scrimmage, let me 724 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: not touch it. Was literally a bank Bank player like 725 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 1: no you him him being on the field. I don't 726 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: think he could have looked in the sideline to see 727 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 1: that the line of skimmers right there, so he shouldn't 728 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,239 Speaker 1: touch the ball. So I don't feel bad. And when 729 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: I'm in the meeting room, I don't think Joe, they's 730 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: gonna make me feel bad either, because that is a 731 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 1: Bank Bay play and also our whole entire team play bad. 732 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 1: I'm trying to make a play, all right, and it 733 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: just didn't fall that way. You know, this is not 734 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: the same as dropping the pass, roughing the kicker. This 735 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 1: is not that. This is one of those flukey moments 736 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: where it's like, dang, who knew? Who knew? We all 737 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: texted each other in the group like, oh man, awful, 738 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: Like who knew? I didn't know that? Right and right shoes, 739 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: let me get that rock. Yeah, we still got it. 740 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: Because because it usually applies to a deep punt or 741 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 1: a field goal where it closes a line of scrimmage, 742 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: but it's usually way like it's far. It doesn't usually 743 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: happen that close as I bouncing up into your hands 744 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: like that was just you know, just just a bad 745 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: chain of events for for us on punt at that 746 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: for a punt return at that time. All right, let's 747 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 1: take a break here. Two players could be returning to 748 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: the Cowboys line up against the Atlanta Falcons.

This is the Players Las, brought to you 796 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: by Hotels dot com. This is about two players who 797 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 1: used to play the game, former undrafted free agent Santi's 798 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: Barry Church and Danny mccraig. Jerry Jones saying that DeMarcus 799 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 1: Ware I should said, DeMarcus Lawrence is twenty one day 800 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: window has not begun yet, so I should say. Mike 801 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: McCarthy said it so not expected to be in his 802 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 1: twenty one day practice window this week, so he's not 803 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 1: gonna play against the Falcons. But Michael gall expected to 804 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,359 Speaker 1: play against the Falcons. Tristan Hills to tackle we could 805 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: see him playing two guys coming back into the lineup. Guys, 806 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 1: how do you feel about that? Well, I definitely want 807 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 1: to see what Michael Gallup got coming because we saw 808 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: what said Wilson was able to do out there, and 809 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 1: he proved that he's more than just a gadget guy. 810 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 1: Like you know, in the past, I thought of him 811 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: is just you know, a reverse guy. Kind of give 812 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 1: him a pitch, you know, he got he can throw. 813 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: He got a little arm on it, so he could 814 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: throw the ball a little bit even with some reverses, 815 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 1: some slants and stuff like that. But he's proven to 816 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 1: be more than that. He's a good route runner, he 817 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: has good hands, and he has a good connection with 818 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. We saw that on that fourth and four 819 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 1: in New England when all options were took taken it 820 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: was fourth down for the game. He went to say Wilson, 821 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: who came through with the big clutch catch. So this 822 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 1: guy has definitely proven to be a valuable piece out 823 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 1: there for this offense. I think Michael Gallop overall is 824 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: a better player and I'm definitely want to see how 825 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:57,800 Speaker 1: his impact is going to have on the rest of 826 00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 1: his trio. Receivers. Will it open up more looks for 827 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 1: his Ceedee Lamb, will open up more looks for a 828 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 1: Mark Cooper. But also it's just tough because what do 829 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 1: you do with say said Wilson in that instance. I mean, 830 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 1: he's done a great job in the slot. He's done 831 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 1: a great job of playing off of those two big 832 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,840 Speaker 1: time receivers on the outside, and we haven't seen Gallup 833 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 1: playing a slot that much, like he's mostly an outside receiver. 834 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 1: So I'm not saying, well that mess up the funk sway, 835 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 1: but will it you know, will it clog things up 836 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: out there? Because you know, Ceedee Lamb, he can play inside, outside, 837 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 1: but the more you move him around is harder for 838 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 1: teams to double team him. So I think that was 839 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 1: a nice piece for said Wilson to come in there 840 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: and kind of get the slot duties there so he 841 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 1: can play on the outside and teams don't have a 842 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: good chance to double team them all like that. So 843 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 1: I want to see what Michael Gallup can bring to 844 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 1: this table. Tristan Hill, you know, hey, you know, I mean, 845 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: you get a good rotational piece. I'm more excited to 846 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 1: wait for Nevill Gallimore to come back, But I see 847 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: Triston Hills. Like me, it's basically a rotational piece. I 848 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: think Diggi Zuoa has proven that he's a better defensive 849 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,440 Speaker 1: tackle than Tristan Hill has been. So to me, it's 850 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,440 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup. I'm really interested to see what he can 851 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: bring to this table come Sunday. Yeah, listen, my man, 852 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 1: my man Church brought the fung says it's a speech. Okay, 853 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 1: all right, Uh, I think this is easy. M I'm 854 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 1: excited to see Michael Gallup. Um. Kind of different from 855 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: how Church thinks about it, because I think Michael Gallup 856 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 1: is is our true deep threat. Um. He's usually that 857 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: guy who's making those deep catches. And I think Ceedee 858 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,879 Speaker 1: Lamb is more dangerous, like you said, when he's able 859 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 1: to move around. I think the same for Mark Cooper. 860 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 1: Now that you see that Cede Lamber can also play 861 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 1: on the outside, him and Mark Cooper are interchangeable. Which 862 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 1: one do you want to put in the slot? Which 863 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 1: one do you want to put outside? Make defenses figure 864 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 1: out how they're gonna double team and who they're gonna 865 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,799 Speaker 1: double team. And oh, by the way, now you got 866 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 1: your deep threat back right. Those deep balls that Ceedee 867 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 1: lamb that were missing last week. Those are the ones 868 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: that Michael Gallup has been catching and you've seen them 869 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:56,719 Speaker 1: doing it so and I think he's gonna come back 870 00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,359 Speaker 1: hungry as long as he's one hundred percent healthy. I'm 871 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 1: really really excited to see him back in this offense. 872 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna bring a new level to us. 873 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 1: And shout out to Tristan Hill. I think he's gonna 874 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,399 Speaker 1: be okay, Gator roll if he's continued to get better 875 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 1: like he was at the last training camp and he 876 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:13,919 Speaker 1: gets away from that Gator role, I think he'll be okay. 877 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: And you know, based off our run defense played last week, 878 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 1: we can use we can use some help, So hopefully 879 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,320 Speaker 1: that turns out to be good. But I'm really excited 880 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,080 Speaker 1: to see Michael Gallop back in the offense. Yeah, Michael 881 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 1: Gallo's gonna be extremely hungry out there. I mean, this 882 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:28,960 Speaker 1: is a guy who missed so many weeks out there, 883 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 1: he's seen said Wilson ball out. He's in a contract, yees, 884 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,319 Speaker 1: so he knows he's gonna have to when he gets 885 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 1: back in these opportunities, he's gonna have to take advantage 886 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 1: of him. So think it right, man, that Michael Gallop 887 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 1: coming back, it should provide, you know, the dividends for 888 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: this offense. But I'm more interested to see how he 889 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: comes back and how he responds to that injury, and 890 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 1: can he become a better football player. You know, I'd 891 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 1: like to see Triston Hill add something to this defense. 892 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 1: We saw how the Broncos had forty one rushes and 893 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 1: and and they're two running backs went wild on the 894 00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 1: Cowboys defensive There's some more help that you can have 895 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 1: a fairly remember bring Rban rban and has been out 896 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 1: missing some time here. I think this can ultimately, as 897 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: I start to look toward the December January run, the 898 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: Cowboys team can be able to make Having as many 899 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 1: guys which can be in a rotational atmosphere upfront for 900 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 1: this defense, I think will help one thing I wanted 901 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 1: to talk about. We can even dive into it more, 902 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 1: but at least wanted to start in the conversation. Today's 903 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 1: you guys are former players, how do you feel about 904 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,279 Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley and seeing his situation where he stepped away 905 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,399 Speaker 1: from football to deal with mental health. With Julio Jones 906 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 1: being gone, so many people thought that Calvin Ridley was 907 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: going to step into a superstar status role this year, 908 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 1: but he has taken some time away to work on 909 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,919 Speaker 1: himself and deal with his own issues. Danny, I'm gonna 910 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,880 Speaker 1: give him some props because you know us as us 911 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,839 Speaker 1: as football players, we've been doing this our entire life, 912 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 1: all right. So you see a lot of guys who 913 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 1: retire and they cannot find a way to stay away 914 00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 1: from the from the game, and then when they are 915 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 1: separated from the game, that they're not able to do 916 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,560 Speaker 1: anything else. So you see, sometimes that can go really 917 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:00,279 Speaker 1: really bad for him. Yeah, So the fact that he 918 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,320 Speaker 1: can look at himself in the mirror and say, I 919 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 1: need to step away from the game. Takes some time 920 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 1: away from this so I could work on myself. I 921 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 1: think that takes a lot of a lot of heart. 922 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 1: I think it takes a lot of courage for him 923 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: to be able to do so. So come back right 924 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 1: right that because football is just one part of your life, 925 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 1: all right. You got a long you got a longer 926 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: life to live when it's over with. So make sure 927 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 1: that your mind and your body are in the right 928 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 1: place to continue to be there for your family and 929 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 1: friends more than it is for you to you know, 930 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:29,360 Speaker 1: play your five or six years, you know, in the NFL. 931 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 1: So shout out to him for doing that and uh, 932 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 1: you know, praying for them. Yeah, I definitely gotta give 933 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,400 Speaker 1: him a shout on this one because you know, you know, 934 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,799 Speaker 1: playing football, all we're todd is, Oh, you're not hurt, 935 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 1: your masculine, your a warrior. You don't need to show 936 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 1: your feelings like that. You know, you'd go out there 937 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 1: and forget all that it's all about football, but like 938 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 1: you're right, football is just a small portion of your life. 939 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 1: And then for him to go out there and let 940 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 1: everybody know and kind of put his emotions and kind 941 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 1: of be his vulnerabilities out there for everybody to know, 942 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: it takes extreme courage to do that. I mean, he 943 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 1: sat there and he realized that he couldn't give his 944 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 1: team one hundred percent. You know, his mind wasn't in 945 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 1: the area. He was mentally checked out, and he needed 946 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: to focus on himself a little bit so he can 947 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:06,880 Speaker 1: become a better guy, so he can be a better 948 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 1: guy for his football team. And like I said earlier, 949 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: that takes extremely a lot of courage because you know 950 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 1: that locker room can't be brutal, and we're taught to 951 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 1: never show emotion or never show any type of weakness. 952 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:17,480 Speaker 1: And for him to go out there and say, look, guys, 953 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:19,320 Speaker 1: you know I'm dealing with some things. I need this 954 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 1: to clear my mind before I'm able to get back 955 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 1: and give you guys my all. It takes a lot 956 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 1: of courage. And shout out to him for that. So 957 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley fantastic player, a guy I thought was gonna 958 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 1: have a really breakout year, stepping away from mental health issues, 959 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 1: and I hope he can find the piece he's looking for. 960 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 1: We saw Lane Johnson offensive line with the Philadelphia Eagles, 961 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: step away the same thing, trying to deal with mental health, 962 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 1: and so I'm with you, guys, this is about your life. 963 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:52,800 Speaker 1: It's not just about football. And hopefully Ridley feels the 964 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 1: support from his own team. Yes, because you guys were 965 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 1: in that room. You know how. You know how some 966 00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,720 Speaker 1: coaches treated guys if they felt like you were injured 967 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:01,840 Speaker 1: or you couldn't help them. Some of these coaches wouldn't 968 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:03,720 Speaker 1: even look at players and they act like they didn't exist. 969 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:07,919 Speaker 1: So hopefully that young man feels some support from from 970 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 1: his teammates. Yep. Wait, and I want to add one 971 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: thing outside of my man Ridley, because I got to 972 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 1: going on. I couldn't let this go. I couldn't let 973 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,359 Speaker 1: this guy. Okay, let me tell you something. You were 974 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 1: talking about what they're gonna do, and said Wilson technical Holly, 975 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,360 Speaker 1: Terrence still all right, they're gonna have a party, you 976 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 1: know what, I'm saying, their own little party in the back, 977 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 1: talking about how they feel about about being in there, improving, 978 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,319 Speaker 1: improving that they could play in the game. And then 979 00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:38,279 Speaker 1: they ended up losing their spot somehow said a little 980 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,319 Speaker 1: different because Michael Gallup got injured. But they both gonna 981 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,440 Speaker 1: have some bones to pick. And it's a bad precedent 982 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 1: to start in your locker room knowing that you can 983 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 1: do everything you're supposed to do, be in the right place, 984 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,399 Speaker 1: do all the right things, and still not be put 985 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,359 Speaker 1: in the position to succeed. And Terrence still wasn't put 986 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,239 Speaker 1: in that position.
