This is Mick 0:00:13.240 --> 0:00:17.159 Shot screaming live on Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the 0:00:17.280 --> 0:00:22.720 official Dallas Cowboys at now. Here are Bill Jones, Everson Walls, 0:00:22.760 --> 0:00:29.640 and Nicky Spagnola. It is a Tuesday at noon inside 0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:33.320 the SWBC podcast studio here at the Star in Frisco, 0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:39.240 and it is officially Buccaneers week around here Bill Jones, 0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:43.600 Everson Walls, and Mickey Spagnola. As we are now less 0:00:43.600 --> 0:00:47.720 than a week away from the Super wild Card playoff 0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:52.559 matchup in Tampa against the Buccaneers. That's what the NFL's 0:00:52.560 --> 0:00:57.240 call it, super wild cardot. Bill was just being hyperbolot. Oh. No, 0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:01.520 Roger Gennell is being high uperbolic about what is the 0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:06.240 difference it's super? I don't because they've added another another 0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:09.840 wildcard team. What I don't know why it's super? Now, 0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:12.520 what's the difference. Maybe it's not. It's not like there's 0:01:12.520 --> 0:01:16.600 another round of games, but you're still you still could 0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:20.360 have teams playing. They added two more games. I think 0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:22.760 that's why, and that's why we have That's why it's super. 0:01:22.800 --> 0:01:25.279 That's why we have the Monday right, the Monday game, correct, 0:01:25.360 --> 0:01:29.160 because we added teams. It wasn't super Before we added 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:32.040 these other teams, we didn't play on Monday. Yeah. We 0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:35.400 used only be four games, right, true, you could play 0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:38.720 two on Saturday, two on Sunday. Now we got Monday. 0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:42.720 So get to go to Tampa Bay on Monday, oh 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:45.560 in that night? Yeah, that's right, aolutely, and then turn 0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:50.520 around on a short week and play Philadelphia or San Francisco. 0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:54.920 That's what happens when you're wild. You're assured. You're assured 0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:59.040 of playing on Sunday the second during the divisional playoff round, right, yeah, right, yeah, 0:01:59.160 --> 0:02:01.560 you're not playing on Saturday that you would hope? Yeah, 0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:05.160 So would you rather have if you're the Cowboys in 0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:09.760 the second round, we're looking past him. Forget to forget 0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:13.520 Brady now, we don't need those guys, and don't concern 0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:19.920 us with three point favorites. Right, Well, here's what you prefer. 0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:25.520 You prefer that Seattle beat San Francisco and the Giants 0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:29.560 beat Minnesota. Yeah, and then and then you would be 0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:32.880 playing get home home game. That's right, You get a 0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:37.799 home game the Giants because by the way, it's been 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:41.080 pointed out that Cowboys can't win on grass. Yeah, so 0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:44.160 I wouldn't mind going to Minnesota, which I was going 0:02:44.200 --> 0:02:48.400 to ask you, Yeah, what's the playing on grass because 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:52.120 both teams, as Jerry said, have to play on grass. Yes. 0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:56.200 The best thing about me and playing on grass is 0:02:56.200 --> 0:02:59.400 it slows down the white receivers. But does it slow 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:02.320 down the other team's wide receivers too? Yeah it does, 0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:06.000 but yours and there with me, I need it because 0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:10.520 I was slow period. So it gave me time to think. 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:14.040 When you've got them guys slow you down, it's it's slowed. 0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:18.320 I was always slow. When you're accustomed to slowness, and 0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:20.960 then you know it helps me. You're the same slow 0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:25.519 on grass, but it gives me a chance to decipher 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:29.320 what the receivers are doing because they're running slower in 0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:32.919 grass then not nearly as quick. You put a quick guy, 0:03:32.960 --> 0:03:36.800 you put up tywy Hill in Texas Stadium, Yeah, at 0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:40.080 old school Texas Stadium, that's one thing. But if you 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:44.040 put them on in San Francisco at Candlestick, Yeah, but 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:48.400 that's read that. The problem for you is that we 0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:54.000 always played in sand well, the San Francisco it's depending 0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:56.320 on how they treat the grass there. That's true, that's true. 0:03:56.360 --> 0:04:00.560 I just never I just never believe that stuff because 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.040 if it slows a fast guy down, it should slow 0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:07.680 a slow guy down, a fast guys accustomed to going quickly. Okay, 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:09.840 So what about a pass rush. This is what Jason 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.640 Garrett was bragging up the other day, is that he 0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:15.880 thinks it affects the Cowboys pass rush playing on grass. 0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:18.760 They can't get off as fast as on turf. If 0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:20.359 you look at it, So if you're going up against 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:24.640 an offensive lineman, then not slow him down. It does 0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:26.719 slow him down. But if you look at what Michael 0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:29.279 Parsons does, you look at the speed rushes that he 0:04:29.360 --> 0:04:33.280 always uses. Okay, you gotta know that he can't make 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:36.040 the same moves on turf. It's not as effective on 0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:38.640 turf as it is on grass. It is on turf. 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:40.960 It's just the way it is because in many cases, 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:43.920 the offensive lineman is a stationary object and he's just 0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:47.040 got to run around them, and so he can't run around, 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:50.919 can't run as fast. It's fact. That is fact. That's physical. Okay, 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:53.680 that's pass I just want to know for as the 0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:58.920 dB is not a stationary object yet they still have 0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:02.960 to maneuver around a defensive back, and you can do 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:06.359 that much quicker with a quick footed guy as opposed 0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:08.320 to a guy who's accustomed to be a slow foot 0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:11.880 Four of their five games have been lost on grass, 0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:15.359 So that's merrit. Yeah. Four the five games that we 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:17.880 lost like the four and I don't think I sacked 0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:20.400 toldal was all that that good either? Yeah, but the 0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:25.280 four games were against they were all they were all 0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:30.479 other than green Bay. It was all playoff teams. Right. Still, 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:32.680 they could look at green Bay at that time making 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:34.800 the playoff move and who did they Who did they 0:05:34.839 --> 0:05:37.800 beat on grass? Tennessee. The other thing is they had 0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:40.640 the greatest receiver coming out in the draft in years, 0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:44.600 and Christian Watson the Packers dead right, and he showed 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:46.880 it on and he was faster. Yeah, he seemed to 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:52.920 be a matter of fact, after that game, nothing slowed 0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:56.520 him down even this last game. Now, when you when 0:05:56.520 --> 0:05:59.680 you're talking great does one thing. We all have to 0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:03.960 worry about maneuverability, not slipping and things of that nature, 0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:06.520 more so on glass, But when it comes to the 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:09.480 speed aspect, it does make a difference. It didn't slow 0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:13.880 down hinds that I assume they got grass and buffalo. 0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:17.800 I don't even know what grass and buffalo. Yeah, the 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:21.440 guy that returned to kick two kickoffs Buffalo. I mean 0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:24.159 they have grasses and used to Oh they got turf. 0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:27.640 I think they have turf. Okay, yeah, I figured they 0:06:27.640 --> 0:06:29.240 had your grass because they're in the North and you 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:32.040 gotta play. Everything's got to be on grass. So when 0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:35.240 it has to be out doors, doggy, everything has to 0:06:35.279 --> 0:06:38.479 be outdoors in the North, not necessarily the new stadium 0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:41.080 and not use a put a roof on it. Okay, 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:45.320 get your two feet of snow. Okay. I have a 0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:48.240 lot of questions, so that was my first that's your 0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:51.120 first question. Yeah, all right. Can I ask you a question. 0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:53.680 Did you listen to Jerry on the radio this morning? 0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:56.560 I did? Okay, would you like to explore his thoughts 0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:58.640 or is there something else you would like to forward? 0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:02.960 What thought would you like to I just grass? You 0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:06.120 know what his answer to grass was? What he said, 0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:10.200 My point is they have to play on grass too, 0:07:10.400 --> 0:07:13.600 And I said, thank you very much. He's been he's 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:16.520 been listening to mix shots. Although he said, you know, 0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:20.400 he respects Jason and he knows Jason's pretty smart. But 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:24.520 he said, my point is they have to play on grass, 0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:28.240 and once again that that still has married of course, 0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:31.560 so each has to make the adjustment. I'm just saying 0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:34.760 from a dB standpoint, Yeah, you slew those wide receivers down. 0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:37.440 It makes you think a little bit. But maybe the 0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:40.600 first step, well, where they can close the gap on 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:43.040 your fast So yeah, the first two or three steps 0:07:43.440 --> 0:07:46.600 that makes a big difference. Okay, if a DB's back there, 0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:49.280 I'm lined up off right, I'm about eight yards off, 0:07:49.320 --> 0:07:52.920 seven yards off, and on turf they can close that 0:07:53.040 --> 0:07:59.680 gap extremely quickly. On grass they just can't. So when 0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:03.720 Bob Hayes set the world record, was he got turf 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:11.120 or grass? He was on sinder in borrow shoes on 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:14.640 the inside lane. Right, Okay, so we can build that up. 0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:18.640 It's even more spectacular than what it was. All right. 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:22.560 So that was in Tokyo, wasn't it. I think, what's 0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:25.640 your next question? Well, did you tell me what what 0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:29.840 you got out of Jerry? Yeah? Uh. They asked him 0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:34.079 about Mike McCarthy's status. Wonder you'd get to that if 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:37.360 the playoff game would impact it one way or another, 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:42.480 and he said no, And there was a pregnant pause. 0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:46.640 They didn't know what to say next. You expect him 0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:49.240 to answer his answers to go wronger than one word. 0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:52.959 And after the paulic the fact that he gave pause 0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:56.960 and then he said, I don't even want to know, 0:08:58.320 --> 0:09:01.960 he goes that's it. I don't need to go into 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:05.400 all the pluses and minuses. I've got a lot more 0:09:05.520 --> 0:09:10.959 to evaluate Mike McCarthy than a playoff game. And that 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:17.120 was that I like his optimism, but I have to 0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:21.480 I have to think that I like that, I beg 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:23.839 the different. Can I just say that, yeah, it won't 0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:26.559 be it won't be a I don't. I think it's 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:30.960 a more comfortable conversation if we go further, very uncomfortable 0:09:30.960 --> 0:09:34.839 conversation if we're out at the end of Monday night. 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:39.320 So when's the last time he got rid of a 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:47.200 coach coming off a season twelve winning two straight twelve 0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:53.600 wins seasons, Yes, Mickey, because Barry Switzer was six and ten, 0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:59.839 Jimmy left on his own, Tom Landry was coming off 0:09:59.840 --> 0:10:03.520 with three and thirteen season. Chan Gailey eight and eight 0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:11.040 a competitive Yeah, Chan Gailey eight and eight. H Wade 0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:16.760 Phillips one in seven, Bill parcels left on his own. 0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:23.559 Jason Garrett eight and eight last season, is that right? Remember? Yeah, 0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:29.760 it was eight and eight, So there's no precedent for saying, well, 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:33.439 we lost the playoff game, you're out, other than chan 0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:36.560 Gailey at eight and eight in losing two straight. The 0:10:36.600 --> 0:10:40.600 only thing I can compare this too is when when 0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:44.800 Tom was coaching before I got there in eighty lost 0:10:44.800 --> 0:10:48.640 to Philly Championship, got there in eighty one, lost to 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:53.920 San Francisco Championship. Eighty two, lost to the Skins. Yeah, 0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:57.720 that was your guy's fault. Yeah, of course, that's championship 0:10:58.200 --> 0:11:03.920 in the vow. So Tom, I'm instead of firing coaches, 0:11:03.960 --> 0:11:07.720 are making you know, just continuing on the same path. Right. 0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:10.320 He said, we have to make a move to make 0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:15.560 us that much better because we're being stagnant at the championship. 0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:18.160 And of course the standard at that time were Super 0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:23.000 Bowls for the Cowboys, right right. We made moves, but 0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:25.680 it made us voice. Yeah, it didn't make us better. 0:11:26.880 --> 0:11:29.000 So I got beat again in eighty three. In the 0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:31.160 first run. We didn't even go. We didn't even make it. 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:34.120 We made it to no more championships, Tom Legend, Sure, 0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:36.520 just the playoffs. Yeah, just the playoffs. Didn't make it 0:11:36.559 --> 0:11:39.560 in eighty four and got beat in the first run, right, 0:11:39.679 --> 0:11:43.080 we but we barely won the NFC East by a 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:46.520 miracle after I be getting blown out to Cincinnati and 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:49.840 the Bear, not just losing, no, blowing out forty something 0:11:49.840 --> 0:11:54.600 to nothing whatever that compared to this. Yeah, I just 0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:57.440 thought about that. So and what did we do? We 0:11:57.520 --> 0:11:59.599 came back and won the East. Anyway, That was his 0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:04.480 That was his answer, um, And I think my point is, 0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:09.440 be careful how the moves you make from here, depending 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:13.280 on whether you win or lose. Yes, be careful because 0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:18.000 if you bring in a new coach, right, chances are 0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:20.800 he's not going to say, Okay, I'm picking up where 0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:23.440 we left off. Yeah, it's gonna change things. It's gonna 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:27.680 change a lot, right, And sometimes change takes a while 0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:32.040 to change things. So you gotta be careful on that one, 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:37.920 even though I'm guaranteeing you. The national perspective out there 0:12:38.080 --> 0:12:40.880 is if Mike McCarthy doesn't win, he's out as the Cowboys, 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:44.200 right right, Well, everybody likes to say something but bombastic 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:47.560 things about the Cowboys, but that's what's going to take place. 0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:53.320 That would love the media would actually those those critical 0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:57.000 sports talk TV shows or whatever, they would love for 0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:59.480 that to happen because they give him something to talk about. Right, 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:01.920 It's not about what's the right thing to do, it's 0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:05.079 just being able to talk about it. He had a 0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:11.160 he had another one. It was like a profound philosophical quote. 0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:18.400 They asked him if the adversity of losing to Washington 0:13:18.720 --> 0:13:21.920 playing the way they did will help them in this 0:13:22.000 --> 0:13:25.160 coming game, like, you know, make you mad and you're 0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:29.120 going to try harder and all that stuff. Actually, where 0:13:29.160 --> 0:13:33.120 your head is on the right cam by the tone? 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:36.679 Is that a wake up call? He said, I know 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:43.440 that success, successes are the prospect of being smart and 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:48.720 got all the answers. Success is every bit the undermining 0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:53.240 flaw that failure is. And to have that and to 0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:57.880 have had some meaning failure to think that's what you 0:13:57.960 --> 0:14:03.760 are is also a fraud. Both are frauds. So he 0:14:03.840 --> 0:14:09.120 was basically saying success and failure it doesn't translate into 0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:13.040 going forward and making you a better team. They're frauds. 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:16.559 And the answer they had for that one is we're 0:14:16.559 --> 0:14:19.480 going to put that on a T shirt. I gotta 0:14:19.560 --> 0:14:21.720 I gotta decide for that one. Yeah, I did too. 0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:24.280 I was like, okay, wait a minute, I was. I 0:14:24.360 --> 0:14:30.080 was on stationary bike and I'm going think, okay, wait wait, 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:33.200 I want to write that down, and then I came 0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:37.400 back to basically listen to it. He was positive about 0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:43.720 the injuries, as was McCarthy, basically um pointing out that 0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:48.840 he felt like Layton was ready to go, that dron 0:14:49.000 --> 0:14:55.120 Bland could practice on Wednesday. Hankins and whom I forget 0:14:55.120 --> 0:15:00.840 about late be honest. Also, uh that and I've had 0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:07.440 people tell me that his workout yesterday was really good. Yeah, 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:15.240 and to me, that's that and vander ash and Bland. Um, 0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:18.880 you know, I know they need Hankins, but those three guys, 0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:22.160 I think that's critical to this game. And I saw 0:15:22.240 --> 0:15:24.680 where Tampa Bay, although I don't know why I'm going 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:26.400 to bring this up because it was the same thing, 0:15:26.400 --> 0:15:30.880 and the opener having problems at center of their starting 0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:39.680 center wasn't the starter at the beginning, right because somebody 0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:44.000 else had gotten hurt Ryan Jenson. Jensen, well he's the 0:15:44.040 --> 0:15:48.240 starting center now, Hanzy, and uh he came out of 0:15:48.280 --> 0:15:51.920 the game because of an ankle, not because they started 0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:54.360 resting guys. And so they were going to move their 0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:58.560 left guard or one of the guards over to center. Uh, 0:15:58.800 --> 0:16:01.080 nick Leverett, and then they were going to have to 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:05.440 move somebody else into left guard. Luke Getticky was their 0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:08.520 second round draft pick. He started against the Cowboys in 0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:11.280 the opener, and he was the starter at left guard 0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:14.080 the first half of the season. He got hurt and 0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:18.040 missed about seven games right and actually was has been 0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:22.320 the backup and because they were resting guys, he was. 0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:25.680 He started in their last game against Atlanta on Sunday. 0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:31.240 But he so Nick Leverett, who is a undrafted guy 0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:35.000 out of Rice in the twenty twenty draft, became the 0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:39.280 starter at left guard at mid season actually about what 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:41.960 would it be five games ago, but they moved him 0:16:42.000 --> 0:16:45.240 to center right, and so he has a background as 0:16:45.240 --> 0:16:52.040 a center. And then John Melchin Melkin replaced Leverett at guard. Okay, 0:16:52.240 --> 0:16:54.760 so they've got but you know, we made a big 0:16:54.800 --> 0:16:58.360 deal of that about the opener. It didn't mean deadly right. 0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:03.840 They were k beating the Cowboys nineteen to three. But 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:07.800 from an injury standpoint for the Cowboys, Uh, you know 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:11.440 Bland with the chess injury. When you hear chess, what 0:17:11.520 --> 0:17:16.680 do you think of that? Or that, yeah, that too, 0:17:17.040 --> 0:17:21.919 now you do. Yeah, although you know, what would be 0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:25.119 a very good story for someone to do is to 0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:30.800 explain what the teams go through to have the preparation 0:17:31.119 --> 0:17:34.520 Buffalo had in place before the game. And I think 0:17:34.520 --> 0:17:36.879 I knew this, but I got reminded of it that 0:17:38.040 --> 0:17:45.240 before every game, for one hour, the entire medical staff, 0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:50.000 not just the Cowboys trainers and doctors, the spotters that 0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:53.800 are up in the booth, the other doctors that are 0:17:53.880 --> 0:17:57.200 there with the e MT people, They have a meeting 0:17:57.400 --> 0:18:02.240 for sixty minutes before every game to go through their protocol, 0:18:02.560 --> 0:18:06.760 to go through the plan in place where they would 0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:10.360 go if something like that happened. And I was told 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:17.200 that they already have a police escort planned that if 0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:20.400 something happened at at and T Stadium, they can get 0:18:20.440 --> 0:18:25.080 to Baylor downtown in fifteen minutes with a police escort. 0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:27.920 So that stuff, And then in the summer they have 0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:31.639 a seminar where they all have to go through and 0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:35.280 they go through the whole plan of what has to 0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:38.720 happen and what type of doctors you have to have there. See, 0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:43.360 we know they got orthopedic doctors, they've got back specialists, 0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:50.240 next spine specialists. But they also have for a better word, 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:54.720 air specialists. If you're having trouble breathing, they have a 0:18:54.760 --> 0:18:57.439 specialist for that. They got all these specialists there that 0:18:57.480 --> 0:19:01.439 we don't know, and it's it's it's pretty detailed. So 0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:04.520 just I thought i'd throw. I think it's not just 0:19:04.560 --> 0:19:11.040 a personnel, but it's the equipment. Yeah, and the most 0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:13.199 important right to have that. And again I think we 0:19:13.280 --> 0:19:15.800 talked about this. The most important thing was for him 0:19:15.840 --> 0:19:19.040 to get breathing again before. They didn't want to waste 0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:23.320 time going into the e MT ambulance. They needed to 0:19:23.359 --> 0:19:26.679 get him breathing when he was on the face. And 0:19:26.760 --> 0:19:31.919 it sounds like unless he has underlying conditions that you know, 0:19:32.000 --> 0:19:34.879 he should be fine, and then he would have to 0:19:34.920 --> 0:19:40.920 make a decision if he wants to play again. Decision Yeah, yeah, right, Um, 0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:43.920 So anyway, I just thought i'd throw that. That wasn't 0:19:43.920 --> 0:19:47.960 part of Jerry's no, but you were you you went, 0:19:48.080 --> 0:19:51.439 you were talking about darn Bland, yes, right at the time. Yeah, 0:19:51.480 --> 0:19:55.919 And so chess to me is a peck usually is 0:19:55.960 --> 0:19:59.480 the injury, and that's serious. But I think they felt 0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:03.240 good at after the game and McCarthy thought he would 0:20:03.280 --> 0:20:06.040 be able to practice on Wednesday. So that's significant to 0:20:06.080 --> 0:20:09.760 me if he can play, because now you've only got 0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:15.679 to fill one spot. If Bland stays in the slot 0:20:15.760 --> 0:20:18.200 on the nickel, then you got to find a left corner. 0:20:18.560 --> 0:20:21.439 If you're playing two tight ends, Bland can play on 0:20:21.480 --> 0:20:25.240 the outside right, and then you have to decide on 0:20:25.359 --> 0:20:28.760 the nickel. Am I better putting somebody outside Bland inside 0:20:28.880 --> 0:20:32.520 or leaving Bland outside and putting somebody else in the nickel? 0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:37.560 And McKenzie Alexander did that and then he strained and 0:20:37.640 --> 0:20:39.920 I keep saying a groin. I haven't checked on it. 0:20:39.920 --> 0:20:43.680 And he had some leg injury why he didn't play 0:20:43.840 --> 0:20:46.359 last week In hockey they call that a lower body 0:20:46.440 --> 0:20:49.800 in yeah, which I should have just covered myself with that, right, 0:20:50.160 --> 0:20:53.440 So there's a chance he would be ready this week. 0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:56.479 And I think they liked it him in the slot 0:20:57.160 --> 0:21:00.960 and then Bland outside, And then how quickly can Rhodes 0:21:01.359 --> 0:21:05.280 be ready to go? And I mean he he was 0:21:05.320 --> 0:21:08.920 on the loss, Yeah, but he was, and he hadn't 0:21:08.960 --> 0:21:10.800 played that much. I think he only played in a 0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:14.200 couple of games. I thought I read um, but he 0:21:14.280 --> 0:21:17.600 was sort of the backup guy. And then what happened 0:21:18.119 --> 0:21:23.159 is they had uh hide, their safety was out, and 0:21:23.200 --> 0:21:27.720 then Hamlin got hurt. He's out and they needed safety help. 0:21:27.760 --> 0:21:32.920 And they signed Jared Maiden out of thank You, out 0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:37.399 of Saxy High School and and so they signed him 0:21:37.480 --> 0:21:41.080 off a practice squad onto their fifty three man roster 0:21:41.119 --> 0:21:44.399 because they needed safety help. So they were looking where, well, 0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:50.200 how do we make that spot, and Rhodes was, well, 0:21:50.200 --> 0:21:54.520 they need it because was out. They were down in numbers, 0:21:54.720 --> 0:21:56.560 and so they needed a safety I guess they didn't 0:21:56.560 --> 0:22:00.680 think Rhodes could play so unlike ever since Wall, well 0:22:00.880 --> 0:22:05.080 not just myself. You got all old cornerbacks out there, Yeah, 0:22:05.240 --> 0:22:07.720 looking for a safety position. I'm just surprised they didn't 0:22:07.720 --> 0:22:10.280 just insert him into that. I'm sure he could do it. 0:22:10.840 --> 0:22:14.439 Oh boy, we just went a little bit over, did Yes, 0:22:14.520 --> 0:22:18.240 we did. Sorry, my bad always all right?
