Let's thank 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:41.880 you Kurt, Thank you, Kurt. We're not going to bury 0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:44.600 the lead. Mike McCarthy had this press conference today. One 0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:46.600 of the reporters, I think it was, was John Macholda. 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.000 I'm not sure. I don't know who it was. I'm sorry, 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:51.400 I don't know who you were that gave this question 0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:53.919 to coach McCarthy. But it was John. It was John. Okay, 0:02:54.080 --> 0:02:55.959 it was John Machilda. He gave the path if you 0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:58.360 want it, yeah, sure. Well, if you got a man 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:03.600 do your thing, man, you should said, hey, come on, 0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:12.440 let's go play HIV team home on half. Yeah, no, 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:17.519 you know, I have what is it this week? We're 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:25.240 we're underdog. I'm good, all right, just from my Saturday 0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:29.320 night speech, I'm good. No, no, I'll never used it, 0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:32.480 but I'll just say this, where nobody's underdog? So if 0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:35.640 you need a quote, m the first part of that 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:39.560 was John macholda acting coach McCarthy, do you ever use 0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:43.040 the point spread as a motivating factor for your team? 0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:46.080 The Cowboys are five and a half point underdogs this 0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:49.480 weekend against the Los Angeles Rams, and coach came on 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:53.480 and said, where nobody's underdog? I love that. I love 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:55.680 that you want to talk about something that you know 0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:59.760 you are. Your team's a reflection of its leadership. When 0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:03.560 oh body's underdog, and that just shows you the confidence 0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:06.240 that is permeating throughout this locker room, and it's starting 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:09.880 with your head coach. And now that energy when they 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:13.600 say keep the same energy, that is the energy that 0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:17.160 needs to be kept throughout the building where no one's underdog. 0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:20.760 Yes we respect our opponent. Yes we understand that they're 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:23.800 the defending world champions. Yes we understand what they can 0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:27.479 do schematically, offensively, defensively. Yes we understand that they have 0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:30.440 really good players on their football team. But damn it, 0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:34.440 we are nobody's underdog because they put their pants on 0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:39.560 the same way we do, one leg at a time. 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:42.240 Do you remember time you're coach doing that? I played 0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:45.800 for Jason Garrett. He never did that. No, I'm playing no, no, no, no, no. 0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:50.880 You know, for what it's worth, Jason Garrett always had 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:53.840 like Jason Garrett is a good storyteller. I don't mean 0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:56.200 a liar, I mean I mean a storyteller like he 0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:59.680 like he can he understands tempo and tone of how 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:01.960 to tell the story. So he always would have these 0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:05.240 really good stories and need really good analogies. But uh, 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:07.000 and then a way after that way he didn't really 0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:10.280 say much. You know, it was like hey listen, kind 0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:11.640 of Hey, we pay you guys a lot of money, 0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:14.000 go do what you remember one time Jason telling the 0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:17.279 media a story that he normally tells the players, and 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:18.799 he was just kind of it was the one about 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:21.640 guy on the cliff and he's got the yeah, and 0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:23.240 he was telling the men and the man is laughing 0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:25.360 as a real joker, like how this kind of silly? 0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:28.080 And then I got to hear a tape of him 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:31.040 telling the players, Yeah, I was ready to jump through 0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:34.839 the wall. The best ones, if anybody ever tell you 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:38.080 the best kind of not really speeches, it's the special 0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:40.480 team meetings when you go on there and they pay 0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:45.479 that your your pregame clip. It's always like, especially coaches 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:47.600 always want you to be an attack mode. So then 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:50.240 they'll pull up all of the animals attack right, They'll 0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:54.440 they'll show a lion or something like going after a 0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:56.080 will to beast or something like that. And it's a 0:05:56.120 --> 0:05:58.840 relentless pursuit every single time you go to attack. And 0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:01.200 so those are all it's fun special one that you 0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:04.280 want to us want to look out for. So all right, 0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:11.479 as we get into this Cowboys defense Los Angeles Rams offense, Nate, 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:13.640 I'm not even gonna set you up. I'm just gonna 0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:15.479 let you do what it is that you want to 0:06:15.520 --> 0:06:19.280 do with this What did you see? We'll start with 0:06:19.320 --> 0:06:24.799 the Rams offense. What do you like about this Rams offense? 0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:26.920 This is me setting you up. I thought I wasn't 0:06:26.960 --> 0:06:28.640 gonna set you up. What do you like about the 0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:31.280 Rams offense? And where is something that you think that 0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:36.800 we can exploit on the Rams offense? You know the 0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:41.000 Rams when you look at them our own tape, brother 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:46.760 Jesson and Kurt, they're just playing. You know, they flash 0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:49.640 here and there. They forced the ball the Cooper cup, 0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:52.280 they forced it to the tight end. They got two 0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:56.919 nice running backs and Henderson and Acres and the smartest 0:06:56.920 --> 0:07:00.720 this coach is you know, people can say what they 0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:04.280 want about the offensive line, but you can have our 0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:07.600 average offensive line as long as the other parts are 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:10.160 kind of elite. And they do have kind of elite 0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:15.320 other parts. Now it is the willingness. Is the coach 0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:18.640 gonna take the time and try to figure out how 0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:22.840 to help this offensive mind block versus the run. And 0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:25.800 that's what they're not doing. It's like, okay, they ain't working, 0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:29.760 let's just throw the ball. And so I'm just waiting 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:32.800 for this coach to click in his mind because he 0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:38.000 is the offensive coordinator. Let's you know, coach McVeigh, let's 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:39.800 get it going. Because he is one of the top 0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:42.600 offensive minds. You can say what you want, he is. 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:45.960 He is that. So I'm just waiting for him to click. Man, 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:48.480 I just hope it won't be this week. Yeah, he hinted, 0:07:48.480 --> 0:07:51.400 and I guess press Commons yesterday that like they're getting 0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:54.640 killed just by four man rushes and so everybody else back, 0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:57.320 and he's like, because their offensive lines all banged up, 0:07:57.320 --> 0:08:00.000 I think they've got another center coming in this thing. Maybe. 0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:04.040 So he talked about trying a different strategy of some sort. 0:08:04.120 --> 0:08:06.120 But how do you I mean, is that something that 0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:10.200 how do the Cowboys prepare for that? And what could 0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:12.840 he do differently? Given the people he's got, They're they're 0:08:13.040 --> 0:08:16.400 they're gonna see, like just said the other day, they 0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:20.440 are this copercat league. These people seeing that man right 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:24.040 outside of them tackles doom. Cowboys a real question of them. 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:26.880 They're a real question because their weakness is the middle 0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:30.000 of their offense. So we got the horses right there. 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:32.560 As long as they keep their mindset, it ain't gonna 0:08:32.600 --> 0:08:35.480 happen in the middle. Now, how do you attack the edges. 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:39.680 You know, they have receivers that actually block, they have 0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:42.800 tight ends that get on you will Are they willing 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:45.679 to do all of that? Are they willing to be patient? 0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:49.920 Because their quarterback is not playing well, he is not 0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:51.920 seeing it and I'm gonna just turn it over the Jets. 0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:55.240 So let me say this this, this Rams team had 0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:58.160 a similar rut last year, and I went back and 0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:01.400 I found the numbers. Um, this RAM team had a 0:09:01.400 --> 0:09:04.440 three game losing streak last year that won a couple 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:05.920 of games, and they went on this this three game 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:09.160 losing streak, and here was Matthew Stafford's numbers during that time. 0:09:09.600 --> 0:09:14.120 They played the Titans and Matthew Stafford was thirty one 0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:17.880 forty eight for two ninety four a touchdown, two interceptions, 0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:20.480 five sacks. They turned around in the next week and 0:09:20.520 --> 0:09:23.400 played the Niners, who, believe it or not, just flat 0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:25.480 out has their number. That's just what it is, like, 0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:28.880 say whatever you want, the Niners have their number. The 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:33.040 Niners whooped up on them. Stafford's numbers twenty six to 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:36.760 forty one, two forty three a touchdown, two picks, two sacks, 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:40.199 followed by Green Bay Stafford's numbers with twenty eight twenty 0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:42.360 one of thirty eight for three or two, three touchdowns, 0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:46.280 one interception, two sacks. Then they ran off five straight 0:09:47.000 --> 0:09:49.360 to only lose to Who in the last game in 0:09:49.360 --> 0:09:54.000 the regular season, the forty Niners. After that loss, they 0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:55.880 didn't ran the table and went on and won the 0:09:55.920 --> 0:10:00.640 Super Bowl. So to your point, Nate is this team 0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:04.320 is a team that plays um. They just play ball. 0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:06.440 They just go out and they play ball, and they 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:09.360 have these ruts throughout the season. I think what has 0:10:09.400 --> 0:10:12.719 made Sean McVay one of the best, if not the 0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:19.320 best head coaches, slash offensive coordinators, and and Kurt you 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:25.199 hit on this as well, is the ability to self evaluate, 0:10:26.720 --> 0:10:29.720 the ability to then now come up with another scheme. 0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:33.800 This has been the This word scheme has been like 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:37.640 the the the word of the day. The last two 0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:39.760 years in the National Football League, we've heard a lot 0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:43.040 of scheme this scheme that, you know, scheme here, scheme there. 0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:45.480 That has been the word. And no one does it 0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:51.320 better than a guy like Sean mcvaigh. And when you 0:10:51.360 --> 0:10:54.040 look at this, everyone's saying, Sean McVay, well, they're forcing 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:55.719 the ball in the Cooper Cup. They're forcing the ball 0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:58.000 in the Cooper Cup, and this team is literate with 0:10:58.080 --> 0:11:01.400 really good offensive players. Now they don't. They don't, they 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:05.640 don't have um. The offensive line is struggling. Absolutely, they 0:11:05.640 --> 0:11:08.640 don't have Odell Beckham, who had really we talk about 0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:10.320 Cooper Cup and all the stuff that he did last 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:12.880 year and when in the Triple Crown. But Odell Beckham 0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:16.160 was one of those solid pieces in that offensive unit 0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:19.199 that gave you all of those things, you know, the 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:21.839 intermediate routes to slants, the hitches and all that kind 0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:25.200 of stuff with the ability to go home always in 0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:27.559 the back of ye always in the back of the 0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:30.800 minds of the defenders. But Kurt to you with with 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:38.280 this offense, when the Cowboys look at this and they 0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:41.760 have this, they've I saw something today where we're talking 0:11:41.760 --> 0:11:45.840 about dan Quip was talking about getting his defenders more opportunities, 0:11:45.840 --> 0:11:48.760 guys like Tristan Hill, guys like Ghost and guys those 0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:58.160 interior guys. Has the Cowboys found themselves defensively almost a 0:11:58.200 --> 0:12:03.600 little bit too married to this idea that Michael Parsons 0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:06.680 needs to be the guy that's in the interior defensive 0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:09.280 line because the reason why you're not getting the other 0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:12.960 guy's reps is because you're playing Michael Parsons exclusively now 0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:16.240 at defensive end, so that rotation doesn't get the other 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:18.400 guys in there. Because you're going with Michael Parsons. Have 0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:22.359 they become a little bit too married to that? Possibly? 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:25.040 I mean we talked about yesterday and just the wear 0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:28.079 and tear of MICA's having and as Nate said, we've 0:12:28.080 --> 0:12:29.760 got some horses in there that can do the job. 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:31.560 I guess it's just a matter of mix and matching, 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:33.960 keeping them guessing and where Michael is. So maybe you 0:12:33.960 --> 0:12:38.000 want him in there sum but I don't know. They've 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:40.480 got a lot of good guys and they got a 0:12:40.520 --> 0:12:43.319 bad rams, got a bad interior line, so our guys 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:45.720 should be able to handle what the This is the 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:52.160 thing this is that you Michael Parsons is a big 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:56.640 man six sixty three, sixty four, two fifty five to 0:12:56.720 --> 0:13:00.440 sixty whatever he is. He's a big man, but he's 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:03.400 not a huge man. And what I mean by that 0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:08.319 he's not two eighty, he's not three hundred. So every 0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:10.640 time he run into one of these big guys that 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:14.120 weigh three hundred, you know, whether he knocking them down 0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:18.360 or not, that's a shot, he's taken, and you got 0:13:18.480 --> 0:13:23.360 Tristian Hill who finally realizes, man, if I can't playing 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:26.400 this defense, but what all these with this rotation, I 0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:28.600 ain't got but twelve players? Let me if I can't 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:32.240 give you twelve hard rushing, you know. And that's how 0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:34.920 they're looking at it, you know. Gallamore finally figured out 0:13:35.000 --> 0:13:38.360 hold on man. They brought Bohanna in a six or 0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:42.360 seventh round pick and he's playing in front of me. 0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:47.920 The competition is so great right now. But coach don't 0:13:47.960 --> 0:13:51.040 want to leave anybody out because if I go to you, 0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:53.559 if I come to you, as Tristian Hill said, hey 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:57.720 coach man, why well, you know coming out of training camp, 0:13:57.760 --> 0:14:01.000 this is what we felt. But Tristan Hill had a good, 0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:04.120 great training camp, one or the best. So you got 0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:06.280 to give him some You gotta give him the lead 0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:08.640 way you gotta give him. But when you give it 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:12.120 to him him and Tristan he'll say, when I give 0:14:12.160 --> 0:14:15.600 you d fifteen plays? Yeah, So when they put you know, 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.400 Mica in the middle like this, and we talked about 0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:23.680 him yesterday too, but we talked about receivers scheming them open. 0:14:24.040 --> 0:14:26.840 Can they scheme Mica to get open because right you know, 0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:29.600 I hadn't had any sacks last two games. Statistically, his 0:14:29.760 --> 0:14:31.920 numbers are not what they were, you know, and that 0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:34.520 is because they've been putting him at one position, either 0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:37.160 left for the right Devin's event. If they go back 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:40.240 to when we started last year, this kid coming from 0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:43.920 the linebacker, coming from Will, coming from Mike, or it'll 0:14:43.960 --> 0:14:47.400 breakback open. His day is coming again, and it's gonna 0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:49.680 come in bunches. It just happened like that. Yes, you 0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:52.480 know that it's coming back. But what Michael got to 0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:55.560 do is take sit back and see what's really hurting. 0:14:56.560 --> 0:14:59.000 If it's hindering him. If he decided that it's not, 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:01.600 then you do your thing. But if you but you 0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.080 gotta be smart as a player sometimes, and I know 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:07.320 those trainers over there are smart, you know, because it's 0:15:07.360 --> 0:15:10.240 times that you can play through injury, but that injury 0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:12.400 may not let you allow you to be who you are, 0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:14.760 but you still better than most. He's a freak, like 0:15:14.760 --> 0:15:17.120 you said, he's a Martian or alien or whatever. He's 0:15:17.160 --> 0:15:19.400 coming on with lights on the stoves or whatever. But 0:15:19.520 --> 0:15:24.720 I'm telling you that right here, I love what you said. 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:27.800 Don't marry him to no defensive end. You know, I 0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:32.920 try to tell anybody that's listening, Lawrence Taylor became, became 0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:37.560 and stayed more effective when you just didn't know. You 0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:41.000 knew his deal was the left outside linebacker for the Giants, 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:44.520 But boy, when he went to moving around and you 0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:47.560 don't know where it's coming from. It's called longevity, and 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:50.520 you don't know whether that atomic bomb is gonna drop next. 0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:53.000 And that's how I think we should keep Michael. I'm 0:15:53.040 --> 0:15:55.240 with that great jazz great on that move. All right, 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:57.080 So when we come back from this break, I want 0:15:57.080 --> 0:16:02.320 to get into the concept of Treyvon dis guarding Cooper Cup. 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:06.280 We've known Trayvon to have really good success against the bigger, 0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:11.480 taller receivers. How do you limit because they're gonna get 0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:14.680 into the ball? How do you limit Cooper Cup and 0:16:14.760 --> 0:16:18.320 its productivity? Do you strictly go Trayvon digs on them 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:20.720 all the time? Do you double them? How? How should 0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:24.480 the Cowboys go about stopping Cooper Cups? Answer that next? 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:29.640 So I will I will give next after this break. 0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:36.280 You I'm Dak Prescott, quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.

What's 0:18:52.320 --> 0:18:54.679 going on with their offensive line. Hell, what's going on 0:18:54.680 --> 0:18:57.040 with our offensive line? How can we come into this 0:18:57.119 --> 0:19:01.960 game and really set the tone? This is to me, 0:19:01.960 --> 0:19:04.800 it is a litmus test for this Cowboys defense and 0:19:05.359 --> 0:19:10.280 will kell him Moore keep defeating the clock before twelve. 0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:14.720 This segment is brought to you by Blockchain Blockchain dot Com, 0:19:14.920 --> 0:19:17.400 also brought to you by fall Fest.

Now, before we went into 0:19:44.640 --> 0:19:46.520 the break, I said that when we come back, we 0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:49.000 would we would talk about this matchup. Cooper Cup is 0:19:49.119 --> 0:19:53.760 on pace right now. Kurt Chris both gave me this 0:19:53.880 --> 0:19:58.960 stat He's on pace to have a hundred and seventy 0:19:59.119 --> 0:20:05.040 nine receptions. What is the record? Yeah, So not only 0:20:05.119 --> 0:20:07.480 is he on pace, to break the record that is 0:20:09.080 --> 0:20:13.680 that's like almost three games receptions thirty thirty more receptions 0:20:13.760 --> 0:20:19.600 than you know what. That is insane And some will say, man, 0:20:19.680 --> 0:20:23.400 they are like they are like forced feeding him the ball. 0:20:23.440 --> 0:20:25.959 They're forced feeding him the ball. They're force feeding him 0:20:25.960 --> 0:20:30.520 the ball. What about the other guys in that team. 0:20:30.600 --> 0:20:34.440 It's one thing, I tell you, who's not complaining. Cooper 0:20:34.440 --> 0:20:36.960 Cups not complaining. I can I can guarantee you that 0:20:37.080 --> 0:20:41.280 he is not complaining. And there's no secret coming into 0:20:41.359 --> 0:20:43.840 this game. They're going to try to find that matchup. 0:20:44.600 --> 0:20:48.560 But what most teams try to have is that one 0:20:48.640 --> 0:20:52.480 corner that you can go ahead and say, hey, you're 0:20:52.480 --> 0:20:56.080 the guy. You are the guy. Now. Cooper Cup may 0:20:56.160 --> 0:20:59.520 look small on TV, Cooper Cup is six foot two 0:21:00.800 --> 0:21:04.840 and built. He ain't the fastest, but he is one 0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:10.120 of the most craftiest, and he has quickness and elusiveness. 0:21:10.560 --> 0:21:15.560 And sometimes this is not a racial thing, but sometimes 0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:18.440 kind of the whole white man can't jump. Like you 0:21:18.480 --> 0:21:20.280 think that the dude can't give you a little something, 0:21:20.280 --> 0:21:22.000 and the white dude give you a little like Cooper 0:21:22.000 --> 0:21:24.919 has lived off that like he's lived off that pace 0:21:25.880 --> 0:21:28.920 of it looked like I'm moving really fast, but I'm not, 0:21:29.280 --> 0:21:32.800 but I'm really shifty. Do you think this is one 0:21:32.800 --> 0:21:36.400 of those games where Dan Quinn says, hey, number seven, 0:21:37.280 --> 0:21:40.159 you got him. You may hit Jordan Lewis may or 0:21:40.200 --> 0:21:42.560 may not play dealt with the hamstring. Right before the 0:21:42.600 --> 0:21:45.440 game last week, he said, feeling a little bit better 0:21:45.440 --> 0:21:48.720 throughout the week, didn't practice the other day. So is 0:21:48.760 --> 0:21:52.640 this a kind of game when you say, hey, Dix, 0:21:55.800 --> 0:21:57.760 you talked about it during the break and you should 0:21:57.840 --> 0:21:59.800 talk about it now too. But it sounds like they 0:22:00.040 --> 0:22:04.840 move Cooper cup so much. How does Digs keep up 0:22:04.880 --> 0:22:06.320 with that? I would think it'd be hard for one 0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:10.840 guy to cover him. Well, I mean, if if you're 0:22:10.840 --> 0:22:13.120 in the star coverage, and what we call star coverage 0:22:13.160 --> 0:22:16.639 is wherever he goes, you go, And it's really basically 0:22:16.680 --> 0:22:20.480 playing ten on ten because wherever wherever he goes, I'm going. 0:22:20.520 --> 0:22:22.480 He goes get water. I'm gonna get water, he gonna 0:22:22.480 --> 0:22:24.680 get a hot dog, I'm gonna get go. He gonna 0:22:24.760 --> 0:22:27.199 drain the main vein. I'm draining the main vane right 0:22:27.240 --> 0:22:28.639 next to him, in the next in the tall next 0:22:28.680 --> 0:22:30.320 to him. And that's just what it is. And I 0:22:30.400 --> 0:22:33.080 have other guys that may play a ten man type 0:22:33.200 --> 0:22:37.760 zone coverage because they're going this is what Sean mcvayh 0:22:37.840 --> 0:22:42.760 does pre snap, you can you can almost bet your 0:22:42.840 --> 0:22:45.280 bottom dollar and I'm I'm I'm willing to bet just 0:22:45.440 --> 0:22:49.000 about all the money that I have. Someone's moving pre snap. 0:22:50.119 --> 0:22:51.920 There will be some sort of motion, there will be 0:22:52.000 --> 0:22:56.000 some sort of shift. Now, granted that pre snap motion 0:22:56.160 --> 0:23:01.560 does one or two things. One helps the quarterback identify 0:23:02.080 --> 0:23:06.320 what covered you're in. If when he emotions and that 0:23:06.440 --> 0:23:09.399 guy goes with him ding ding ding ding ding, it 0:23:09.520 --> 0:23:13.040 is man to man coverage if he emotions, and that 0:23:13.200 --> 0:23:18.080 thing just shifts over zone coverage, and now the quarterback knows, 0:23:18.160 --> 0:23:20.680 all right, zone covers, here are my reads and zone coverage. 0:23:21.119 --> 0:23:23.320 The second thing that it does is if I do 0:23:23.560 --> 0:23:26.080
