0:01:30.880 --> 0:01:33.920
<v Speaker 1>how's that spinning it? Positive? Twelve and fourth seasons? At

0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:36.240
<v Speaker 1>twelve and four? That's right, even though there's another game,

0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:39.959
<v Speaker 1>another one can go for thirteen here next week against Washington.

0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:42.840
<v Speaker 1>And you guys need to be good because I met

0:01:42.880 --> 0:01:47.039
<v Speaker 1>a whole bunch of Cowboy fans yesterday that listen to

0:01:47.120 --> 0:01:53.480
<v Speaker 1>mix Shots, realers, So don't let them die. And you

0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:58.240
<v Speaker 1>got in win. I think I by time I got home,

0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:02.400
<v Speaker 1>it was we landed right or a little bit after

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:05.880
<v Speaker 1>it mean to stump you at this question. I ain't

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:08.640
<v Speaker 1>got a lot of sleep there, probably got home at

0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:13.000
<v Speaker 1>three o'clock. All right, so you're rested, rested and ready

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 1>got my four hours sleep? There you go, all right?

0:02:15.800 --> 0:02:18.200
<v Speaker 1>And here we are in need. Here we are as

0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:20.839
<v Speaker 1>we wrap up what happened on Thursday night and look

0:02:20.880 --> 0:02:24.640
<v Speaker 1>ahead to a New Year's weekend. Just one more game

0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:27.400
<v Speaker 1>now left in this season? And where is this Cowboys

0:02:27.480 --> 0:02:31.679
<v Speaker 1>team now as we sit here twelve and four at

0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:37.000
<v Speaker 1>the new year. Well, they are guaranteed the fifth seed

0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:41.720
<v Speaker 1>and the NFC playoff, nothing less than that. I think

0:02:41.760 --> 0:02:46.280
<v Speaker 1>they're probably guaranteed unless something really weird happens. They're playing

0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:51.639
<v Speaker 1>the division champ of the NFC South, Tampa Bay or Carolina,

0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:54.720
<v Speaker 1>and that should be decided or New Orleans or New Orleans.

0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:58.800
<v Speaker 1>That's a long shot. And Tampa Bay and Carolina play

0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:02.040
<v Speaker 1>this Sunday, so we'll see how that New Orleans plays

0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Philadelphia and Cowboys fans want a Saints win in Philly.

0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:12.440
<v Speaker 1>So the Cowboys by by winning, that's yeah. The Cowboys

0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:15.639
<v Speaker 1>by winning at least put the pressure on the Eagles

0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:18.040
<v Speaker 1>that they have to win one more game. We don't

0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:20.440
<v Speaker 1>want to make it too easy for him. Yeah, them

0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:23.480
<v Speaker 1>coasting out. They thought they had a Quak's thirteen and

0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:27.760
<v Speaker 1>one until the Cowboys showed up right right, uh and so,

0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:30.079
<v Speaker 1>and now they got to make a decision when they

0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:35.160
<v Speaker 1>put Jalen Hurts back on the field practicing. He is practicing.

0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:38.240
<v Speaker 1>According to the head coach. If you believe the head coach,

0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:41.160
<v Speaker 1>he looked good in practice yesterday, after the okie doke

0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:45.240
<v Speaker 1>that his legs look good in practice. Yeah, after the

0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:49.280
<v Speaker 1>okie doke that Tennessee pulled, pulling the starting quarterback the

0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:51.280
<v Speaker 1>day of the game and saying, Okay, we're gonna go

0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:54.000
<v Speaker 1>with this guy that just showed up nine days ago. Yeah,

0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:57.760
<v Speaker 1>and he played much better than the guy I think,

0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:02.480
<v Speaker 1>and I think he won the backup job. He's gonna play.

0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:06.320
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna play in their Week eighteen playoff game against Jacksonville.

0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:10.560
<v Speaker 1>That right way, he'll start that game. Man. That's that's crazy.

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:12.960
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be good. It's gonna be fun for them.

0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:15.320
<v Speaker 1>I had fun last night watching the game. I really did.

0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:19.120
<v Speaker 1>I had circled this game on the schedule as a

0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:22.839
<v Speaker 1>problem game. I did too, until they lost five straight

0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:25.440
<v Speaker 1>right right right? That this is a team. If I

0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:28.120
<v Speaker 1>if you guys would call the three teams that I

0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:30.520
<v Speaker 1>always bring up when I talk about in tests before,

0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:34.320
<v Speaker 1>the two Pittsburgh Steelers, the Ravens, and the Titans. You know,

0:04:34.320 --> 0:04:38.200
<v Speaker 1>they have that that persona well, they just they don't

0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:40.640
<v Speaker 1>have that now. The just don't have that. And the

0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Ravens themselves are having problems as well. The Cowboys. Uh,

0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:47.719
<v Speaker 1>it seems to be the most resilient team in the

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:51.080
<v Speaker 1>NFL right now, and like you said, a lot of

0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:54.040
<v Speaker 1>it because of their own making, you know, being resilient

0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:56.039
<v Speaker 1>enough to come back from your own mistakes that you

0:04:56.160 --> 0:05:00.240
<v Speaker 1>cause for no reason. That Nate just talking to about

0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:04.200
<v Speaker 1>the interceptions it happenstance interception versus your own and we're

0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:08.159
<v Speaker 1>having too many of our own on top of those

0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:11.600
<v Speaker 1>happenstance interceptions. And I know it's a drop pass, but

0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:15.400
<v Speaker 1>it was a drop pass and then tipped on top

0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:19.359
<v Speaker 1>of it. Wait, I can keep missed it three times? Yeah,

0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:21.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, but you know, and and the throw went

0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:24.880
<v Speaker 1>to coverage. What was his excuse for that? None? Bad decision?

0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Just bad you know. He gets on the role. And

0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:31.440
<v Speaker 1>even with what you see coming from that, the mistakes

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 1>and all that, you still have to Marvel and how

0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:38.680
<v Speaker 1>he comes back and just the touchdown pat the second

0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:41.880
<v Speaker 1>one to show dude, come on, man, come on man,

0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:46.240
<v Speaker 1>that's that's and you know what that's That wasn't I

0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:50.600
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't say it was improvised, but Schultz told me that

0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:54.400
<v Speaker 1>during the week they had plaque practice that play uh

0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:57.000
<v Speaker 1>several times and the ball never came to him. It

0:05:57.120 --> 0:05:59.880
<v Speaker 1>went to CD. That's where the ball was supposed to go.

0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:02.719
<v Speaker 1>But because of the way they played it and the

0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:08.240
<v Speaker 1>corner stayed with CD. That left the safety with Dalton Schultz,

0:06:08.720 --> 0:06:12.040
<v Speaker 1>the safeties five eleven, two hundred Scholtz sixty five, two

0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:14.640
<v Speaker 1>fifty five. Who do you think is gonna jump ball?

0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:18.360
<v Speaker 1>And it was That was a moment. As a defensive back,

0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:21.760
<v Speaker 1>you have a dilemma. Okay, is he gonna throw it

0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:24.400
<v Speaker 1>kind of like back shoulder like he did? It was

0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:26.400
<v Speaker 1>semi back shoulder, but he gave it was kind of

0:06:26.440 --> 0:06:28.440
<v Speaker 1>a lie. It was a lie, but it wasn't. It

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.279
<v Speaker 1>wasn't a lib towards the corner of the end zone, right,

0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:33.159
<v Speaker 1>It was a lib towards the back of the end zone. Yeah,

0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:35.640
<v Speaker 1>So therefore the dB has to adjust his approach to

0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:39.679
<v Speaker 1>the ball. Last minute he's thinking he's hauling. He's hauling

0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:41.799
<v Speaker 1>trying to get to the corner of the end zone.

0:06:42.040 --> 0:06:44.839
<v Speaker 1>But then as he looks up, it doesn't go corn

0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:46.280
<v Speaker 1>of the end zone. He has to step, he has

0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:49.240
<v Speaker 1>to jump up vertically, And of course that's probably why

0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:51.720
<v Speaker 1>he messed up his knee. Did the six inches helped too,

0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:55.679
<v Speaker 1>for you know, no doubt? Right? Yeah? So but yeah, so,

0:06:56.520 --> 0:07:01.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, even even McArthur when he was talking about

0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:04.840
<v Speaker 1>the interception, I think he said, the first one was,

0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:08.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, a drop past. The second one was a

0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:12.840
<v Speaker 1>bad DESI dropping intelligence. Yeah. I went back to look

0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:15.800
<v Speaker 1>at it and I wanted to see if maybe Schultz

0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:19.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of didn't cut his route right, that's the way

0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:21.400
<v Speaker 1>he threw it. That maybe he was well and it

0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:25.240
<v Speaker 1>was a little bit behind him and he was never open.

0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:29.880
<v Speaker 1>He just wasn't open. So you can't because I was

0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:32.800
<v Speaker 1>trailing too close. There was a dump off pass available

0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:35.840
<v Speaker 1>to Zeke. I think it was. He probably wouldn't have

0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:41.320
<v Speaker 1>gotten the first down, but you wouldn't have thrown by inption. Yeah,

0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:44.320
<v Speaker 1>and it wasn't just a guy who was trailing him.

0:07:44.400 --> 0:07:48.760
<v Speaker 1>He was a ballhawk. Kevin Byer. I was just looking

0:07:48.840 --> 0:07:51.240
<v Speaker 1>up how many interceptions does he have in his career?

0:07:51.280 --> 0:07:55.840
<v Speaker 1>Twenty seven interceptions? He really? Yep? Uh? In fact, now

0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:59.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking up to last night. You know, his second

0:07:59.160 --> 0:08:01.040
<v Speaker 1>year in the league by it at eight picks. That

0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:04.560
<v Speaker 1>was in twenty seventeen. He's got twenty seven now in

0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:07.400
<v Speaker 1>his career. Four this year, five last year. So I

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.840
<v Speaker 1>mean that's that was one guy who did play for Tennessee,

0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:13.600
<v Speaker 1>who's a regular and a former Pro bowler, two time

0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:15.880
<v Speaker 1>Pro bowler who did play for Tennessee. And last night's

0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:18.200
<v Speaker 1>game see and then the other thing that happened, even

0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:22.320
<v Speaker 1>though they their linebackers were out, defensive end was out,

0:08:22.360 --> 0:08:27.720
<v Speaker 1>defensive tackle was out, the Cowboys struggled to run the football. Now,

0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:30.200
<v Speaker 1>these guys are number two against the run, and I

0:08:30.280 --> 0:08:35.040
<v Speaker 1>understand they had guys missing, but they decided we're playing

0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:38.920
<v Speaker 1>a five man front, yes basically, and almost every down

0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:41.760
<v Speaker 1>and it's like, you want to run the ball, okay,

0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:44.480
<v Speaker 1>come on, and we're gonna have seven guys in the box.

0:08:45.160 --> 0:08:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Especially when you went two tight ends, three tight ends,

0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:51.760
<v Speaker 1>they put eight nine guys in the box. Right, It's like, no,

0:08:51.880 --> 0:08:54.559
<v Speaker 1>you're not gonna run. And the Cowboys ended up what

0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:59.120
<v Speaker 1>averaging two point seven yards a carry, and even when

0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:02.800
<v Speaker 1>they ran for the touchdown, it was first in goal

0:09:02.840 --> 0:09:05.640
<v Speaker 1>at the six and it was a four yard run,

0:09:06.040 --> 0:09:09.640
<v Speaker 1>a one yard run, and a half yard run with

0:09:09.679 --> 0:09:13.439
<v Speaker 1>a long reach by Zeke to score the touchdown. His

0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:17.920
<v Speaker 1>ninth straight game with a touchdown by the way, So yeah,

0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:20.839
<v Speaker 1>it was it was tough sledding in there, and so yeah,

0:09:21.000 --> 0:09:23.839
<v Speaker 1>now you got to throw the ball. And last year

0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:26.000
<v Speaker 1>we would have had an issue with that because what

0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:29.040
<v Speaker 1>they talked about was being able to play the run,

0:09:30.600 --> 0:09:33.880
<v Speaker 1>really playing like a two man behind that and that

0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:37.920
<v Speaker 1>always gave that problems. And this year that does not

0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:41.600
<v Speaker 1>seem to be working. Whether it's Philadelphia or Tennessee. He's

0:09:41.640 --> 0:09:46.199
<v Speaker 1>able to decipher things much better this year, much quicker

0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:49.760
<v Speaker 1>and really take advantage of any situation that he recognized,

0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:52.439
<v Speaker 1>and a little more patient because some of those routes

0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:55.760
<v Speaker 1>he's thrown the CD he needed time for those routes

0:09:55.800 --> 0:10:00.720
<v Speaker 1>to develop. Offensive line, Yeah, we're just we have a

0:10:01.679 --> 0:10:05.200
<v Speaker 1>that travels. We talk about defense traveling. That offensive line

0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.520
<v Speaker 1>is traveling. Well, we can't run the ball, then we

0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:11.960
<v Speaker 1>have the protection to keep that comfortable in the pocket.

0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:14.120
<v Speaker 1>And you're right, there are times when he's back there.

0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:18.160
<v Speaker 1>He's got full comfortable seconds. Yeah, to see what's going on,

0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:22.040
<v Speaker 1>that's alluxury. And speaking of speaking of offensive line, tell

0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:24.680
<v Speaker 1>us what's going on with the offensive line with Tyler

0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:27.400
<v Speaker 1>Bias going down? Last night? They traveled to the right.

0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:33.360
<v Speaker 1>So uh and and McCarthy said that, you know, they

0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:39.080
<v Speaker 1>bring um, what's his name, brock Hoffman Hoffman, Right, he

0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:42.200
<v Speaker 1>gets elevated off the practice squad as kind of the

0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:45.640
<v Speaker 1>backup center guard. But obviously they didn't want to put

0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:48.520
<v Speaker 1>him in the game. I know he hasn't played yet, right,

0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:52.880
<v Speaker 1>So the plan was McCarthy said, when I asked him,

0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:56.480
<v Speaker 1>is you know it was always Connor mcgovernin moves from

0:10:56.559 --> 0:11:00.360
<v Speaker 1>left guard to center, Tyler smooth Smith the move from

0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:04.040
<v Speaker 1>left tackle to left guard, and Jason Peters comes in

0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:07.800
<v Speaker 1>at left tackle. And you know, they had a couple

0:11:07.880 --> 0:11:12.680
<v Speaker 1>plays that they struggled with. There was one that they

0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:16.280
<v Speaker 1>didn't everybody took a guy, but no one took the

0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:18.840
<v Speaker 1>guy coming through the gap right, and I think it

0:11:19.000 --> 0:11:22.360
<v Speaker 1>ended up in that sack. But other than that, I

0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:24.480
<v Speaker 1>mean they kind of hung in there. Now we got

0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:26.960
<v Speaker 1>to see what they do going forward. That was the

0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:31.840
<v Speaker 1>emergency plan. And by the way, brock Hoffman is out

0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:35.000
<v Speaker 1>of elevations. Now, that was his third elevation from the

0:11:35.040 --> 0:11:37.600
<v Speaker 1>practice squad. You only get three, and they did that

0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:40.760
<v Speaker 1>earlier in the year with Dakota Shepley the Chicago Green

0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:44.559
<v Speaker 1>Bay in Minnesota game, they used his three elevations. Anybody else,

0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:49.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, Aviante Collins, who's not a center, has had

0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:53.360
<v Speaker 1>two elevations, right, and he has I think he might

0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:59.199
<v Speaker 1>have some center okay experience a TCU. But anyway, so

0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:02.400
<v Speaker 1>after the game, I was told that, you know, Beatish

0:12:02.520 --> 0:12:04.719
<v Speaker 1>is in a walking boot, and he didn't really want

0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:08.280
<v Speaker 1>to talk about it. Uh, it's his right foot and

0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:11.840
<v Speaker 1>he's lucky because the way he got rolled up on

0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:14.680
<v Speaker 1>when they showed the replay, I mean they got both

0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:20.000
<v Speaker 1>knees from behind. Right. It's a high ankle sprain, but

0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:23.920
<v Speaker 1>they didn't think it was of the serious nature that

0:12:23.960 --> 0:12:28.280
<v Speaker 1>a high ankle sprain can be where it's least four weeks, yeah,

0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:31.520
<v Speaker 1>a lesser higher. I mean it's high, but it's not

0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:35.720
<v Speaker 1>as serious as normal. So you know, the thought was, well,

0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:39.480
<v Speaker 1>there's thirteen gay days maybe between games if they played

0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:44.000
<v Speaker 1>the following Sunday, because it could be Saturday by the way, Uh,

0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:47.560
<v Speaker 1>and then you know, and then it's another's week until

0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:50.080
<v Speaker 1>you play a playoff game, So he could, you know,

0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:55.959
<v Speaker 1>have almost two weeks to recover. So they're gonna well,

0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:58.840
<v Speaker 1>we'll see whether that Washington game is gonna matter or not.

0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:01.880
<v Speaker 1>It depends on the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, right,

0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:04.160
<v Speaker 1>because then you can just say, well, there's no sense

0:13:04.240 --> 0:13:08.280
<v Speaker 1>rushing him back, just getting ready for the playoffs. But again,

0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:11.280
<v Speaker 1>if you're gonna have to adjust for the playoffs, you

0:13:11.400 --> 0:13:13.680
<v Speaker 1>better put those guys out there how you want to

0:13:13.720 --> 0:13:16.320
<v Speaker 1>play the playoffs at least for a half, Right, And

0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:19.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you say, well, okay, if this

0:13:19.720 --> 0:13:22.520
<v Speaker 1>is the way it's got to go with McGovern at center,

0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:26.800
<v Speaker 1>do I take Tyrn Smith put him back at left tackle? Right?

0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Is it easier for Peters to play right tackle or

0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:33.960
<v Speaker 1>rotate with Josh Ball on the right side. And I

0:13:33.960 --> 0:13:36.640
<v Speaker 1>think that's the decision. They'll have to make that left

0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:41.840
<v Speaker 1>tackle position pretty important though, right, So that's one thing

0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:45.800
<v Speaker 1>that I think they would have to consider. Tylan looks good, Yeah,

0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:48.760
<v Speaker 1>it looks real good. There was a couple pass blocks

0:13:48.760 --> 0:13:52.959
<v Speaker 1>that Jason Peters struggled with. I don't know, you want

0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:57.200
<v Speaker 1>him to play seventy snaps. I don't know if you

0:13:57.200 --> 0:13:59.840
<v Speaker 1>have a choice, well well and so yeah and so

0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:03.040
<v Speaker 1>well then you but he's never played right tackle right

0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:08.000
<v Speaker 1>as fa until that that yeah, that drive, Yeah, that's rush,

0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:10.840
<v Speaker 1>that's right, until this year he played it fore yards

0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:15.120
<v Speaker 1>by golly, yeah, that's right, which is a different So

0:14:15.200 --> 0:14:18.920
<v Speaker 1>it's a different dynamic in that decision. Yeah, as opposed

0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:22.440
<v Speaker 1>to what it was whether you're choosing with Tyler Smith

0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:25.520
<v Speaker 1>to play left tackle. Now he slides in and so

0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:28.320
<v Speaker 1>now it's okay, I think that's a no player. You

0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:31.000
<v Speaker 1>gotta put time and back and left. If that's what

0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:32.800
<v Speaker 1>we're dealing with, you have to put time back and

0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:36.960
<v Speaker 1>left where he's the man. Right To say comfortable is

0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:41.320
<v Speaker 1>an understatement, And maybe maybe the decision depends on how

0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:44.160
<v Speaker 1>long they think Beyondish is out. Is it just one

0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:47.440
<v Speaker 1>game or if it's two games and you got to

0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:51.840
<v Speaker 1>go in the playoffs, you better situated how you want

0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:54.640
<v Speaker 1>to play in the playoffs, right, So that's one of

0:14:54.680 --> 0:14:57.720
<v Speaker 1>the things that they got to decide. All right, we're

0:14:57.720 --> 0:15:03.360
<v Speaker 1>just getting started on a victory Friday edition of mix Shots,

0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:05.640

<v Speaker 1>like the country reading. They're kind of changing it. K

0:18:11.359 --> 0:18:13.840
<v Speaker 1>Post can go second. I guess yeah, I like that.

0:18:13.840 --> 0:18:17.840
<v Speaker 1>That was a good and uh, Natan Frisco is in

0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:21.000
<v Speaker 1>the studio now with us here in the s WBC

0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:24.640
<v Speaker 1>podcast studio. But my understanding is Nate is just going

0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:26.640
<v Speaker 1>to listen. Although he's got a headset on. He got

0:18:26.640 --> 0:18:29.000
<v Speaker 1>a microphone in front of him. He's never turned down

0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:33.080
<v Speaker 1>a microphone. Huh, even if he's tired, I'd sell you what.

0:18:33.280 --> 0:18:36.679
<v Speaker 1>I have one story I called Mickey the day of

0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:41.800
<v Speaker 1>the game. He just read that country thing. He's a

0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:45.720
<v Speaker 1>head Nate. I don't miss Mississippi as much as I

0:18:45.760 --> 0:18:49.520
<v Speaker 1>thought because he's some country folks that I didn't know

0:18:49.520 --> 0:18:51.919
<v Speaker 1>how to take that. I did not know how to

0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:56.280
<v Speaker 1>take that. Let's let's turn that around. I said, Nate,

0:18:56.680 --> 0:18:59.600
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of country folks walking around this place.

0:19:00.920 --> 0:19:04.120
<v Speaker 1>And he goes, and he goes, yeah, that makes Mississippi

0:19:04.160 --> 0:19:15.120
<v Speaker 1>look good. Yeah, about like fifty five to five. How

0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:17.600
<v Speaker 1>we'll get We'll get to fifty six to five here.

0:19:17.880 --> 0:19:20.520
<v Speaker 1>How was your trip to the Grand ol Opry Wednesday night? Yeah?

0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:23.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that happened. Okay. I just walked down

0:19:23.760 --> 0:19:29.199
<v Speaker 1>Broadway on Thursday, like late morning, early afternoon. Place was

0:19:29.280 --> 0:19:32.080
<v Speaker 1>packed and packed with cowboy fans too, by the way,

0:19:32.480 --> 0:19:34.680
<v Speaker 1>that's not surprising. And and you know what, it gave

0:19:34.760 --> 0:19:39.719
<v Speaker 1>me a new uh meeting to when people are on

0:19:39.760 --> 0:19:42.600
<v Speaker 1>those singing shows and they ask them, what where have

0:19:42.720 --> 0:19:45.720
<v Speaker 1>you appeared, and they say, well in Nashville. I sing

0:19:45.720 --> 0:19:49.600
<v Speaker 1>in Nashville. So I'm thinking they're like concerts all over them. Yeah. No,

0:19:50.119 --> 0:19:52.439
<v Speaker 1>they're just in these clubs and they're singing and the

0:19:52.480 --> 0:19:54.760
<v Speaker 1>windows are open. When you walk down the street and

0:19:54.840 --> 0:19:57.600
<v Speaker 1>you hear everybody's singing, I'm going, that's what these people

0:19:57.640 --> 0:20:01.320
<v Speaker 1>were talking about on American I. Yeah, I I I

0:20:02.359 --> 0:20:07.560
<v Speaker 1>in Nashville. Yeah, all right, I can see that. Okay. Um, yes,

0:20:07.840 --> 0:20:09.520
<v Speaker 1>you want to get to our picks to click and

0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:12.720
<v Speaker 1>how successful. We were or were not want this one down?

0:20:12.800 --> 0:20:15.200
<v Speaker 1>What you got going on? I don't have anything going

0:20:15.240 --> 0:20:18.240
<v Speaker 1>on because you totally missed it. I did I met?

0:20:19.400 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 1>You know I didn't totally miss the score. Yeah, yeah,

0:20:21.800 --> 0:20:24.280
<v Speaker 1>you totally missed the score. You know, if you take

0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:28.159
<v Speaker 1>away if you turned two two interceptions and a fumble

0:20:28.200 --> 0:20:32.080
<v Speaker 1>into touchdowns, then you're getting close to fifty six from

0:20:32.119 --> 0:20:35.320
<v Speaker 1>twenty seven. But if those turned into touchdowns, there's forty eight.

0:20:36.040 --> 0:20:38.920
<v Speaker 1>You might have got to forty. Okay, my, if you

0:20:39.000 --> 0:20:43.600
<v Speaker 1>missed it my because of the gas my gas tank

0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:50.879
<v Speaker 1>I filled up earlier this week and my guests price

0:20:51.000 --> 0:20:54.480
<v Speaker 1>it was fifty six dollars and five cents. So my

0:20:54.960 --> 0:20:57.640
<v Speaker 1>predicted score on the game was fifty six to five.

0:20:57.960 --> 0:21:01.480
<v Speaker 1>See I rather you know, he just picks the Cowboys

0:21:01.520 --> 0:21:04.680
<v Speaker 1>to win win by one. Hey, I was the closest guys, No,

0:21:04.880 --> 0:21:07.560
<v Speaker 1>I was, No, I got I got thirty one thirteen,

0:21:07.880 --> 0:21:15.959
<v Speaker 1>twenty seven, thirteen fourteen point spreads talking about thirty one,

0:21:16.040 --> 0:21:22.240
<v Speaker 1>thirty sixteen, thirty one sixteen, and I had a fifteen

0:21:22.359 --> 0:21:25.640
<v Speaker 1>point spread and they won by fourteen. You missed both scores.

0:21:26.040 --> 0:21:28.680
<v Speaker 1>I got the spread right. Ever since got the thirteen

0:21:30.880 --> 0:21:33.680
<v Speaker 1>what is he talking about nobody has ever looked at that. Yeah,

0:21:33.920 --> 0:21:36.520
<v Speaker 1>now I can't pick my tight ends because of course

0:21:36.560 --> 0:21:38.679
<v Speaker 1>the tight end was the main one that just coughed up.

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:44.280
<v Speaker 1>The tight end scored two touchdowns in the game, right there.

0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:46.719
<v Speaker 1>All right, I'll take that. I'll take that on Dallas Cowboys.

0:21:46.760 --> 0:21:49.240
<v Speaker 1>I can. We have a thing called pod picks, obviously

0:21:49.480 --> 0:21:53.879
<v Speaker 1>is a rest pe game. One person pick. They were correct.

0:21:54.000 --> 0:21:58.720
<v Speaker 1>Score actually brought us did exactly twenty seven thirteen. That's correct.

0:21:58.760 --> 0:22:01.840
<v Speaker 1>They don't put mine on there, dude, they do, Oh

0:22:02.040 --> 0:22:06.080
<v Speaker 1>they do. If I would have known that, I am

0:22:06.119 --> 0:22:09.840
<v Speaker 1>the closest I had no idea. If you could go

0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:16.160
<v Speaker 1>Bill Jones' score fifty six to five, that's right. Yeah,

0:22:16.240 --> 0:22:18.159
<v Speaker 1>that's pretty bad. That looks that makes you look like

0:22:18.240 --> 0:22:23.320
<v Speaker 1>an amateur. Really, do truth hurts? Or he worse than that?

0:22:24.400 --> 0:22:31.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm start uh having William put Bill's gas bill, that's right.

0:22:32.760 --> 0:22:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Just instead of fifty six to five, put fifty six

0:22:35.119 --> 0:22:39.359
<v Speaker 1>dollars five six? All right, So who wins? I know

0:22:39.400 --> 0:22:42.879
<v Speaker 1>who is your pick? To click? Clark Deman Clark, Nope me.

0:22:43.240 --> 0:22:45.080
<v Speaker 1>He had a tackle for loss on the last play

0:22:45.119 --> 0:22:49.800
<v Speaker 1>the game. That's got anchow. I got two touchdowns. I

0:22:49.880 --> 0:22:55.680
<v Speaker 1>got touchdown. No, that wasn't his guy. I know he

0:22:56.080 --> 0:22:59.080
<v Speaker 1>was confused on who it was. Guy. He wind up

0:22:59.160 --> 0:23:01.800
<v Speaker 1>with that guy. That's the last guy, the last guy

0:23:01.880 --> 0:23:04.440
<v Speaker 1>that comes to make the tackle. Oh he got beat. Yeah,

0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:08.760
<v Speaker 1>there's no way they got little linebacker covering the wide receiver.

0:23:09.080 --> 0:23:12.439
<v Speaker 1>Diggs got off of his guy and went to somebody

0:23:12.520 --> 0:23:16.280
<v Speaker 1>else to help out. And then he guess wrong wrong. Again.

0:23:16.400 --> 0:23:20.960
<v Speaker 1>He's been lately. He's been guessing like Dax been gas. Now,

0:23:21.000 --> 0:23:23.560
<v Speaker 1>I could have for given him if he had got

0:23:23.680 --> 0:23:28.400
<v Speaker 1>that pick six nice claned off his hands. That's that's

0:23:28.480 --> 0:23:31.080
<v Speaker 1>that's an instinctive read right there, because you know that

0:23:31.200 --> 0:23:33.359
<v Speaker 1>they're not going to be going towards the sidelines. You

0:23:33.440 --> 0:23:35.240
<v Speaker 1>know they're gonna try and throw it. Yeah he saw

0:23:36.600 --> 0:23:39.919
<v Speaker 1>that was good stuff. It was coming. Yeah. Um, but again,

0:23:40.960 --> 0:23:45.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, the injuries still kind of effect um this

0:23:45.760 --> 0:23:49.719
<v Speaker 1>defense when you don't have Vanderish in there. I mean,

0:23:49.800 --> 0:23:52.600
<v Speaker 1>at one point they were trying to give bar and

0:23:52.840 --> 0:23:57.639
<v Speaker 1>Clark a break. They had Luke Gifford and Dabill Cox

0:23:57.720 --> 0:24:00.399
<v Speaker 1>out there. I saw that Jabil Cox played fourteen STAPs.

0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:02.240
<v Speaker 1>That's the most he's had in his career in a

0:24:02.359 --> 0:24:06.560
<v Speaker 1>single game. I forgot he was active, tell you truth.

0:24:07.520 --> 0:24:11.040
<v Speaker 1>And then the cornerback position they're still I mean, it

0:24:11.119 --> 0:24:14.840
<v Speaker 1>looks like they're going with Nashan right, you know. I

0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:17.320
<v Speaker 1>mean he had some moments out there, but then he

0:24:17.400 --> 0:24:20.720
<v Speaker 1>got the pick. He had forty seven snaps, his most

0:24:20.840 --> 0:24:24.560
<v Speaker 1>in his career, so I thought he played well, especially

0:24:24.640 --> 0:24:27.720
<v Speaker 1>for his inexperience. Yeah, you know what happened on the

0:24:27.840 --> 0:24:31.840
<v Speaker 1>deep one when they showed the replay, Donovan Wilson was

0:24:33.040 --> 0:24:36.360
<v Speaker 1>back and for some reason he bit up. I don't

0:24:36.400 --> 0:24:38.200
<v Speaker 1>know what he was biting up on because he didn't

0:24:38.200 --> 0:24:40.480
<v Speaker 1>come to cover anybody, and then he had no help

0:24:40.600 --> 0:24:42.879
<v Speaker 1>deep and Hooker was way on the other side of

0:24:42.920 --> 0:24:44.919
<v Speaker 1>the field. He couldn't get there in time to help

0:24:45.040 --> 0:24:49.000
<v Speaker 1>him out. That's about how they play, right, That's about

0:24:49.040 --> 0:24:51.639
<v Speaker 1>how to Kyle Boys play. Yeah, the coaches put him

0:24:51.680 --> 0:24:54.000
<v Speaker 1>in position, and if they they've been told if you

0:24:54.119 --> 0:24:58.120
<v Speaker 1>see something you're sure about it jumping in. And as

0:24:58.200 --> 0:25:01.320
<v Speaker 1>we get closer to playoff football, we can't do that, right.

0:25:01.520 --> 0:25:04.040
<v Speaker 1>We have to cover our friends back, our brothers back,

0:25:04.200 --> 0:25:06.920
<v Speaker 1>and we have to be sure and if Nation and

0:25:07.040 --> 0:25:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Right is going to be this guy. And my question

0:25:10.400 --> 0:25:14.040
<v Speaker 1>to you guys, and maybe to everything is I've seen

0:25:14.160 --> 0:25:16.600
<v Speaker 1>teams going to get on a roll and win with

0:25:16.680 --> 0:25:19.639
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of turnovers on defense. Can can we sustain this?

0:25:20.280 --> 0:25:24.919
<v Speaker 1>Is this sustainable? It's nineteen eighty one going into San Francisco.

0:25:25.320 --> 0:25:28.879
<v Speaker 1>You know, eventually if we're that blessed, you know, and

0:25:29.000 --> 0:25:31.280
<v Speaker 1>I remember going into same friend. We had always been

0:25:31.320 --> 0:25:33.600
<v Speaker 1>known for giving up the plays, but getting our plays,

0:25:34.000 --> 0:25:37.159
<v Speaker 1>getting the sacks come a lot like this team. But

0:25:37.720 --> 0:25:41.080
<v Speaker 1>and then we finally get the championship. The defense finally

0:25:41.119 --> 0:25:44.000
<v Speaker 1>started playing well. But then now the offense is struggling

0:25:44.080 --> 0:25:46.200
<v Speaker 1>because this is playoffs, right, you know what I'm saying,

0:25:46.359 --> 0:25:48.760
<v Speaker 1>going against the hell of a defense, and now you

0:25:48.960 --> 0:25:50.840
<v Speaker 1>end up you thought you right at the wrong but

0:25:50.960 --> 0:25:53.359
<v Speaker 1>in the end you still give it up on a

0:25:53.440 --> 0:25:56.080
<v Speaker 1>big play. When it's all said and done, you can't,

0:25:56.440 --> 0:25:58.800
<v Speaker 1>like you said, it's dangerous going to the playoffs with

0:25:58.960 --> 0:26:02.199
<v Speaker 1>status quote. You know, you have to somehow step up

0:26:02.200 --> 0:26:04.159
<v Speaker 1>and make some adjustments. The only thing that made me

0:26:04.200 --> 0:26:07.600
<v Speaker 1>feel good about yesterday was everything was set up for

0:26:07.720 --> 0:26:10.440
<v Speaker 1>us to lose. You know, last year, to me, we

0:26:10.440 --> 0:26:12.480
<v Speaker 1>would have lost this game, and I don't care who

0:26:12.480 --> 0:26:16.080
<v Speaker 1>would have been playing. I think we would have collapsed offensively, defensively,

0:26:16.119 --> 0:26:19.320
<v Speaker 1>they would have picked on us in every injured position

0:26:19.840 --> 0:26:22.119
<v Speaker 1>in the secondary that we had to deal with, and

0:26:22.240 --> 0:26:25.399
<v Speaker 1>we didn't. We came out of it unfamiliar field. You're

0:26:25.440 --> 0:26:29.080
<v Speaker 1>on grass, Yes, dude? Was it human out there? Were

0:26:29.119 --> 0:26:31.040
<v Speaker 1>you there? Was? It? Was it human? While it was raining,

0:26:31.080 --> 0:26:34.159
<v Speaker 1>it was They looked. They looked up. They looked like

0:26:34.240 --> 0:26:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Emma Smith back in Florida running for all those all

0:26:37.200 --> 0:26:39.840
<v Speaker 1>those plays back in the day. His jersey was wet

0:26:39.960 --> 0:26:42.359
<v Speaker 1>and torn, and you could just tell the humidity was

0:26:42.400 --> 0:26:45.399
<v Speaker 1>in the air. It looked like they were exhausted. No

0:26:45.680 --> 0:26:48.320
<v Speaker 1>out there. I wrote that in my column. I said

0:26:48.880 --> 0:26:52.760
<v Speaker 1>they looked like an exhausted team that played three games

0:26:52.840 --> 0:26:56.800
<v Speaker 1>in twelve days. Yes, and no excuse, but that's kind

0:26:56.840 --> 0:26:58.800
<v Speaker 1>of the way it looks. Well, No, they didn't. They didn't.

0:26:58.800 --> 0:27:00.920
<v Speaker 1>They didn't need any excuses. That's what I like about

0:27:00.920 --> 0:27:04.159
<v Speaker 1>the game. They came through all those problems that you

0:27:04.240 --> 0:27:07.520
<v Speaker 1>could have leaned back on and they still won the game.

0:27:07.640 --> 0:27:10.200
<v Speaker 1>And this is the second time they've went three games

0:27:10.280 --> 0:27:13.720
<v Speaker 1>or twelve days, right, Yes, they they At first, I

0:27:13.800 --> 0:27:16.320
<v Speaker 1>couldn't get it when coach McCarthy was trying to tell

0:27:16.440 --> 0:27:20.240
<v Speaker 1>us that earlier in the week. It's a grind. It's

0:27:20.720 --> 0:27:23.000
<v Speaker 1>and I couldn't get it, but I get it now.

0:27:23.119 --> 0:27:26.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, even though conditions are different, players get a

0:27:26.680 --> 0:27:28.760
<v Speaker 1>chance to rest, it's still just the nature of the

0:27:28.840 --> 0:27:32.000
<v Speaker 1>beast of the physicalness of the game. And uh, and

0:27:32.200 --> 0:27:36.920
<v Speaker 1>not practicing, yeah, I mean, short week travel. It was

0:27:37.000 --> 0:27:40.639
<v Speaker 1>all set up. I mean they practiced, but it wasn't football.

0:27:40.880 --> 0:27:44.920
<v Speaker 1>You know Allen iverson practice. Yeah, yeah, and and and

0:27:45.080 --> 0:27:50.600
<v Speaker 1>and if you think about it, the defense, they gave

0:27:50.680 --> 0:27:55.119
<v Speaker 1>up some big plays. Um, I had figured out at halftime. Um,

0:27:56.560 --> 0:28:03.320
<v Speaker 1>Tennessee at halftime after my bill, I got it. I

0:28:03.400 --> 0:28:05.680
<v Speaker 1>got it. Just hang with me. This is part of

0:28:05.720 --> 0:28:10.000
<v Speaker 1>the appeal of the show. Looking for whatever he's about

0:28:10.040 --> 0:28:15.680
<v Speaker 1>to say that hits at seven. I want to be accurate.

0:28:15.920 --> 0:28:20.399
<v Speaker 1>Right at halftime, Tennessee had one hundred and fifty two yards.

0:28:21.000 --> 0:28:25.119
<v Speaker 1>They had one hundred two on three plays, so they

0:28:25.200 --> 0:28:27.879
<v Speaker 1>were getting hit with big plays. And then in the

0:28:28.040 --> 0:28:31.639
<v Speaker 1>third quarter, if you take away one possession, it's a

0:28:31.720 --> 0:28:35.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty seven six game and everybody's happy, right. They converted

0:28:36.640 --> 0:28:40.360
<v Speaker 1>three third and sixes on that possession and a fourth

0:28:40.480 --> 0:28:43.400
<v Speaker 1>down conversion, and the last third and six was for

0:28:43.520 --> 0:28:46.720
<v Speaker 1>the touchdown that we talked about. So you make one

0:28:46.880 --> 0:28:51.240
<v Speaker 1>play somewhere and there, it's a different score, and everybody's

0:28:51.280 --> 0:28:54.600
<v Speaker 1>happy with twenty seven six, right, So so is this

0:28:54.800 --> 0:28:57.520
<v Speaker 1>stretch And this is not an excuse because Tennessee played

0:28:57.520 --> 0:29:00.240
<v Speaker 1>the same schedule this stretch of three games in well

0:29:00.360 --> 0:29:04.480
<v Speaker 1>days as opposed to Thanksgiving. Is it tougher as players

0:29:04.640 --> 0:29:08.760
<v Speaker 1>to go Sunday and then play Saturday and then Thursday,

0:29:09.160 --> 0:29:13.680
<v Speaker 1>or Saturday to Sunday and then Thursday, that the middle

0:29:13.720 --> 0:29:16.280
<v Speaker 1>game being on Saturday. Does it make a difference. The

0:29:16.400 --> 0:29:19.560
<v Speaker 1>thing that that gish is most coaches try to keep

0:29:19.600 --> 0:29:24.640
<v Speaker 1>you on on scanting schedule, and so that's getting that's

0:29:24.680 --> 0:29:29.280
<v Speaker 1>getting disrupted. You got a lot of injuries that have

0:29:29.400 --> 0:29:31.400
<v Speaker 1>been that have occurred, so now you got to try

0:29:31.440 --> 0:29:34.600
<v Speaker 1>to fix those injuries in a short week. And yeah,

0:29:35.120 --> 0:29:38.280
<v Speaker 1>it could be hectic, man, because even though the coaches

0:29:38.280 --> 0:29:41.120
<v Speaker 1>said we're gonna try to run plays that relate to

0:29:41.320 --> 0:29:43.680
<v Speaker 1>other plays, you still want to put a wrinkle in

0:29:43.800 --> 0:29:45.720
<v Speaker 1>on a wrinkle there, and it could throw off the

0:29:45.800 --> 0:29:48.480
<v Speaker 1>young guys. This and Mickey told me this other day.

0:29:48.480 --> 0:29:51.800
<v Speaker 1>I didn't this team is young. This is a very

0:29:52.000 --> 0:29:56.760
<v Speaker 1>young team and they've come through this man, and Josey

0:29:56.840 --> 0:29:59.480
<v Speaker 1>maccarthur's just done a super job. You know, I think

0:29:59.520 --> 0:30:03.440
<v Speaker 1>of bringing his team through this man because this is

0:30:03.480 --> 0:30:07.680
<v Speaker 1>the only coach I know in America has to defend

0:30:07.800 --> 0:30:15.240
<v Speaker 1>winning coach. I got to walk up and say, Okay,

0:30:15.360 --> 0:30:19.920
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't pretty. What did we do wrong? We got

0:30:20.000 --> 0:30:23.440
<v Speaker 1>twelve wins. We got twelve wins, but oh what was me? Yeah?

0:30:24.400 --> 0:30:26.600
<v Speaker 1>And so from a mindset of a player, right now,

0:30:26.960 --> 0:30:29.400
<v Speaker 1>you just got through that stretch, which is a second

0:30:29.480 --> 0:30:32.080
<v Speaker 1>time in a month's time that you've played three games

0:30:32.120 --> 0:30:35.440
<v Speaker 1>in twelve days. And now it's New Year's weekend, you

0:30:35.520 --> 0:30:38.040
<v Speaker 1>get the long weekend, You got one game left and

0:30:38.160 --> 0:30:41.800
<v Speaker 1>then the postseason, regardless of whether things fall your way

0:30:42.080 --> 0:30:45.680
<v Speaker 1>and you win the division whatever. You know that, Okay,

0:30:45.720 --> 0:30:48.520
<v Speaker 1>at least you're playing next Sunday or Saturday or Sunday

0:30:48.560 --> 0:30:51.560
<v Speaker 1>in Washington and there's the playoffs. How does that help you?

0:30:51.680 --> 0:30:55.040
<v Speaker 1>From a mental standpoint? Get ready? Now that okay, you

0:30:55.240 --> 0:31:00.520
<v Speaker 1>you're through this December November December crunch time, and now

0:31:00.760 --> 0:31:02.800
<v Speaker 1>focus on the playoffs. Well, this is the end of

0:31:02.840 --> 0:31:06.160
<v Speaker 1>the season, I mean, this is it. So the grind

0:31:06.280 --> 0:31:09.080
<v Speaker 1>itself could have caught up with you. You know, you're

0:31:09.120 --> 0:31:11.360
<v Speaker 1>pastor grind. Now you're past the ground and you got

0:31:11.480 --> 0:31:14.200
<v Speaker 1>you You have a reprieve coming up as well, with

0:31:14.360 --> 0:31:16.840
<v Speaker 1>your number of days that you have before you play

0:31:16.880 --> 0:31:19.480
<v Speaker 1>the Commanders. That's what I like about it. They kind

0:31:19.520 --> 0:31:23.160
<v Speaker 1>of get to rest going into the playoffs. So you

0:31:23.280 --> 0:31:26.240
<v Speaker 1>kind of look at it like, you know, timing is everything,

0:31:26.640 --> 0:31:28.800
<v Speaker 1>you know with the thing now that you got to

0:31:28.960 --> 0:31:32.000
<v Speaker 1>w on Thursday, it's like, all right, we got an

0:31:32.040 --> 0:31:35.040
<v Speaker 1>advantage over everybody else now right now, I can't I

0:31:35.160 --> 0:31:38.880
<v Speaker 1>can't tell you how good that win felt because everything

0:31:39.080 --> 0:31:42.120
<v Speaker 1>was set up for you to lose. Everything was set

0:31:42.200 --> 0:31:45.479
<v Speaker 1>up for you to start having Domino's fall as opposed

0:31:45.520 --> 0:31:48.400
<v Speaker 1>to setting them up the Marcus Lawrence was pretty good

0:31:48.440 --> 0:31:51.920
<v Speaker 1>about the perception. M I was standing and when he

0:31:52.000 --> 0:31:55.080
<v Speaker 1>said this, he said, once you all see a game

0:31:55.200 --> 0:31:59.360
<v Speaker 1>like Minnesota, you instantly think that's how every game's supposed

0:31:59.400 --> 0:32:03.840
<v Speaker 1>to be. He said. I wish, he said, but it's not.

0:32:04.240 --> 0:32:07.400
<v Speaker 1>You have to be able to fight through adversity. I

0:32:07.560 --> 0:32:10.520
<v Speaker 1>think it comes with the territ And then somebody said about,

0:32:10.600 --> 0:32:13.680
<v Speaker 1>well it's a win, but cowboys get criticized. He goes,

0:32:14.080 --> 0:32:16.280
<v Speaker 1>I think it comes with the territory of being a

0:32:16.400 --> 0:32:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Dallas Cowboy. In all honesty, you all questioned every day thing,

0:32:22.440 --> 0:32:25.680
<v Speaker 1>but he was right. He was right. You know, he

0:32:25.800 --> 0:32:28.240
<v Speaker 1>has a way of putting things. And he had a

0:32:28.320 --> 0:32:32.440
<v Speaker 1>hell of a game. He had five tackles, um, he

0:32:32.560 --> 0:32:38.360
<v Speaker 1>had a quarterbacks hit, forced fumble, and two passes defended

0:32:38.640 --> 0:32:41.360
<v Speaker 1>at the line of scrimmage. So that was a Pro

0:32:41.480 --> 0:32:44.560
<v Speaker 1>Bowl performance. That's my guy. Right. We talked about it

0:32:44.720 --> 0:32:47.880
<v Speaker 1>last week. Yeah, well this week, this week you you you,

0:32:50.760 --> 0:32:52.960
<v Speaker 1>this is where we were learning a lot about the Cowboys.

0:32:53.400 --> 0:32:56.840
<v Speaker 1>These next three days they're off. Right. We should be

0:32:56.880 --> 0:33:00.680
<v Speaker 1>able to call every guy on his cell phone and said, hey, man,

0:33:00.720 --> 0:33:02.600
<v Speaker 1>where you at? Just catching my up? Man, I'm laying,

0:33:02.720 --> 0:33:05.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm at home, I'm sleeping. I'm over head to the

0:33:05.800 --> 0:33:12.680
<v Speaker 1>training room, right, Because that is the only, uh solution. No,

0:33:12.920 --> 0:33:16.800
<v Speaker 1>that is the only solution you have. If any guy

0:33:17.280 --> 0:33:20.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about paying significant snaps for the Dallas Cowboys,

0:33:21.160 --> 0:33:25.240
<v Speaker 1>it's out doing anything, hanging out at the Cowboys care. Na, Na,

0:33:26.280 --> 0:33:29.000
<v Speaker 1>that was a different breed of guy. Was different. You

0:33:29.040 --> 0:33:33.160
<v Speaker 1>gotta understand how let me go through that real quick. See,

0:33:33.520 --> 0:33:36.800
<v Speaker 1>I took the protest, coach, I took the process as

0:33:36.840 --> 0:33:39.520
<v Speaker 1>a coach. I don't care how many games we play.

0:33:39.640 --> 0:33:41.400
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna be in your pads. I don't care how

0:33:41.440 --> 0:33:48.400
<v Speaker 1>many games we played. I'm gonna be our drink. I'm saying,

0:33:50.280 --> 0:33:53.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be I'm gonna be consistent. You know, if

0:33:53.200 --> 0:33:55.920
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna be consistent, coach, I'm gonna be consistent. All right,

0:33:56.040 --> 0:34:00.280
<v Speaker 1>we wrap up mix shots and just a moment we

0:34:00.400 --> 0:34:04.840
<v Speaker 1>paid how much for those lessons? She's doing great? Oh yeah, totally.

0:34:05.320 --> 0:34:10.960
<v Speaker 1>Can you pass me a Pepsi zero sugar? Great job, honey,

0:34:12.560 --> 0:34:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh look at that. That's not the end, No way.

0:34:16.160 --> 0:34:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Now it's time for the encore. You know what, You're right?

0:34:19.320 --> 0:34:22.279
<v Speaker 1>Five times not enough times for everyone who traded in

0:34:22.440 --> 0:34:26.400
<v Speaker 1>rock concerts for their kids recitals. You've compromised enough. Pepsi

0:34:26.560 --> 0:34:30.400
<v Speaker 1>zero sugar. That's what I like. Nobody protects you from

0:34:30.440 --> 0:34:35.040
<v Speaker 1>mayhem like all State. You hear that I'm a torrential downpour.

0:34:35.600 --> 0:34:39.319

0:34:39.360 --> 0:34:42.600
<v Speaker 1>see out of your windshield, and if you have the

0:34:42.680 --> 0:34:45.279
<v Speaker 1>wrong car insurance, you might have to make it rain

0:34:45.360 --> 0:34:48.480
<v Speaker 1>to fix your bumper. So switch to all State, save

0:34:48.600 --> 0:34:51.799

0:36:27.320 --> 0:36:32.399
<v Speaker 1>what you got in your legal pad? Um? I never

0:36:32.520 --> 0:36:37.360
<v Speaker 1>figured out the fumbled snap like what happened there? I

0:36:37.480 --> 0:36:39.480
<v Speaker 1>was thinking, look like he pulled away to pull away

0:36:39.560 --> 0:36:44.239
<v Speaker 1>to SA's the way it looked like because when I

0:36:45.120 --> 0:36:48.239
<v Speaker 1>it seemed as if once he finally even did he

0:36:48.320 --> 0:36:50.560
<v Speaker 1>even touch the ball, ried to touch it seemed like

0:36:50.600 --> 0:36:52.759
<v Speaker 1>he was all with it. He was backing up. I

0:36:52.800 --> 0:36:55.319
<v Speaker 1>didn't know if the ball was wet because it had rained.

0:36:55.360 --> 0:36:57.799
<v Speaker 1>It really rained that first quarter. Pok. Well you guys,

0:36:57.800 --> 0:36:59.239
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you could see it on TV,

0:36:59.440 --> 0:37:02.360
<v Speaker 1>but it was coming down. Um, yeah that was a

0:37:02.920 --> 0:37:06.120
<v Speaker 1>that was a weird one. Um. That was on DAK.

0:37:06.320 --> 0:37:10.439
<v Speaker 1>I have a shot of it. Yeah, it looked pretty Yeah,

0:37:10.719 --> 0:37:12.759
<v Speaker 1>I was why is he moving out so fast? Why

0:37:13.360 --> 0:37:17.719
<v Speaker 1>that's just didn't make any sense, and once again still

0:37:17.760 --> 0:37:20.680
<v Speaker 1>able to overcome those mistakes. So it's weird. Yeah, that's

0:37:20.880 --> 0:37:22.719
<v Speaker 1>why I'm I don't know why I'm so happy about

0:37:22.760 --> 0:37:25.440
<v Speaker 1>that game and you in that first half they had

0:37:25.520 --> 0:37:28.960
<v Speaker 1>those big plays. I pointed out thirty nine, thirty three

0:37:29.040 --> 0:37:32.520
<v Speaker 1>and thirty and the worst they did was give up

0:37:32.680 --> 0:37:37.520
<v Speaker 1>field goals. So looked like on that snap that Dak

0:37:37.680 --> 0:37:40.160
<v Speaker 1>was pulling out and he was gonna he was pivoting

0:37:40.200 --> 0:37:42.400
<v Speaker 1>and he was gonna roll left, and he was he

0:37:42.560 --> 0:37:44.239
<v Speaker 1>knew he had to get there in a hurry even

0:37:47.960 --> 0:37:50.279
<v Speaker 1>and I think I've ever seen him fumple a snap. Yeah,

0:37:50.960 --> 0:37:53.160
<v Speaker 1>do you recall that might have been one of those

0:37:53.200 --> 0:37:54.840
<v Speaker 1>that he was gonna go left and throw it the

0:37:54.960 --> 0:37:57.319
<v Speaker 1>CD who was in motion on the run, and they

0:37:57.440 --> 0:37:59.880
<v Speaker 1>ran one like that the other way too. By the

0:38:00.200 --> 0:38:02.360
<v Speaker 1>did I tell y'all I don't miss the Miry Cooper anymore?

0:38:02.440 --> 0:38:05.560
<v Speaker 1>Did I say? No? You haven't said that, not missed

0:38:05.560 --> 0:38:09.080
<v Speaker 1>the Mary Cooper in a long time, say about at

0:38:09.160 --> 0:38:13.040
<v Speaker 1>least six weeks? Because the CD? Because the CD you

0:38:13.160 --> 0:38:16.600
<v Speaker 1>miss O b J. I'm no, because of t y

0:38:17.160 --> 0:38:21.359
<v Speaker 1>y Man. They increased his snaps from twelve to twenty two,

0:38:21.480 --> 0:38:23.719
<v Speaker 1>and I would imagine that goes up another ten and

0:38:23.840 --> 0:38:28.960
<v Speaker 1>he's where, Yes, he's where he needs to be when

0:38:29.080 --> 0:38:32.080
<v Speaker 1>Dak needs him. He's always going to run the right

0:38:32.160 --> 0:38:35.840
<v Speaker 1>route slot on that slant for the first down, I

0:38:35.920 --> 0:38:39.040
<v Speaker 1>mean Ale and the one that he caught and ran

0:38:39.160 --> 0:38:41.560
<v Speaker 1>with it was a short pass and he got twenty

0:38:41.640 --> 0:38:44.800
<v Speaker 1>yards right, And he almost had that deep one because

0:38:44.840 --> 0:38:47.080
<v Speaker 1>he did the same thing. He kind of like kept

0:38:47.120 --> 0:38:49.560
<v Speaker 1>his arms in in the last minute and he needed

0:38:49.640 --> 0:38:52.600
<v Speaker 1>one more step. Uh, and he would have because you

0:38:52.680 --> 0:38:55.080
<v Speaker 1>know what, when I when I recognized when he was

0:38:55.160 --> 0:38:59.160
<v Speaker 1>in that cornerback was off ten yards right and the

0:38:59.280 --> 0:39:02.520
<v Speaker 1>safety was stopping over the top. It's like, no, not

0:39:02.760 --> 0:39:06.920
<v Speaker 1>on us, right, And uh, he's fast, but it's kind

0:39:06.960 --> 0:39:10.319
<v Speaker 1>of hard to make up ten yards right. But yeah,

0:39:10.520 --> 0:39:13.320
<v Speaker 1>he what a find, right, I mean, the the what,

0:39:13.480 --> 0:39:17.480
<v Speaker 1>the what? The thought process we're throwing the ball deep? Yeah,

0:39:17.480 --> 0:39:20.239
<v Speaker 1>we actually threw consciously throwing the ball dep and look

0:39:20.280 --> 0:39:22.520
<v Speaker 1>what happens when you throw the ball deep? Yeah, I mean,

0:39:22.600 --> 0:39:25.040
<v Speaker 1>come on, what they are You might get the PI

0:39:25.520 --> 0:39:27.279
<v Speaker 1>and we ended up getting nothing. Two of them they

0:39:27.360 --> 0:39:30.600
<v Speaker 1>got deep passes. PI was it two? Yeah? It was

0:39:30.680 --> 0:39:33.120
<v Speaker 1>two right, it was two one deep. I know, I

0:39:33.200 --> 0:39:35.200
<v Speaker 1>thought it's two of them were deep. But what it

0:39:35.280 --> 0:39:38.600
<v Speaker 1>did is it just shows that, you know, most defensive

0:39:38.600 --> 0:39:41.160
<v Speaker 1>backs are not ready for that, So don't let them

0:39:41.160 --> 0:39:44.640
<v Speaker 1>off the hook by always building them out with short routes.

0:39:44.960 --> 0:39:48.080
<v Speaker 1>We need to threaten them deeply. And that's what happened. Yeah,

0:39:48.160 --> 0:39:50.799
<v Speaker 1>Gallup had had one of them, right, the guy mugged him.

0:39:51.200 --> 0:39:53.280
<v Speaker 1>It was really funny because when they showed the replay

0:39:53.320 --> 0:39:56.520
<v Speaker 1>in the stadium, everybody started booing, I'm going, oh my gosh.

0:39:57.440 --> 0:40:00.920
<v Speaker 1>I thought c d lost track of the ball on

0:40:01.120 --> 0:40:03.560
<v Speaker 1>his deep yes, And I didn't think he made I

0:40:03.600 --> 0:40:06.000
<v Speaker 1>thought he made an unnecessary move. Was their son? If

0:40:06.040 --> 0:40:12.919
<v Speaker 1>he were the key? Just asking you were there, tell

0:40:13.000 --> 0:40:18.239
<v Speaker 1>us maybe the rain drop? All right, let me ask

0:40:18.280 --> 0:40:23.280
<v Speaker 1>you this. Five fifty one left of the game, after

0:40:23.520 --> 0:40:27.280
<v Speaker 1>the nation right interception, Cowboys are up twenty seven to thirteen.

0:40:27.320 --> 0:40:30.000
<v Speaker 1>You want him to run all three plays? Zeke ran

0:40:30.120 --> 0:40:34.080
<v Speaker 1>for nothing, which which was typical all night, and then

0:40:34.239 --> 0:40:40.520
<v Speaker 1>incomplete the CD incomplete uh punt and four fifty five left?

0:40:40.560 --> 0:40:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Who you ran fifty five seconds off the clock on

0:40:44.520 --> 0:40:49.319
<v Speaker 1>that possession? Why why are you throwing it there? I'm

0:40:49.360 --> 0:40:53.680
<v Speaker 1>just asking you are who we who maybe thought you were,

0:40:53.800 --> 0:40:57.080
<v Speaker 1>maybe they thought it was it was too easy. We

0:40:57.200 --> 0:40:59.600
<v Speaker 1>are who we thought you were. That's that's you are,

0:40:59.640 --> 0:41:02.200
<v Speaker 1>who were you work. That's what I can say. Like

0:41:02.360 --> 0:41:05.920
<v Speaker 1>you said, it's just in his DNA. He can't help himself.

0:41:06.800 --> 0:41:10.279
<v Speaker 1>You know, you have great receivers, you know, and you

0:41:10.360 --> 0:41:13.320
<v Speaker 1>know you got t Y Hilton, and you know once

0:41:13.400 --> 0:41:19.200
<v Speaker 1>a quarter you're gonna take a shot, once twice a game.

0:41:19.680 --> 0:41:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Keller more gonna take a shot. And how much At

0:41:23.120 --> 0:41:26.920
<v Speaker 1>that time, I think he was trying to put a

0:41:27.120 --> 0:41:30.239
<v Speaker 1>drive together to take the time off the cloud. That

0:41:30.360 --> 0:41:32.680
<v Speaker 1>was supposed to be his deliberate plays to take time

0:41:32.800 --> 0:41:35.080
<v Speaker 1>off the cloud. But if you're not completing the past,

0:41:35.120 --> 0:41:38.920
<v Speaker 1>then of course it's counterproductive. And I don't think they

0:41:38.960 --> 0:41:40.680
<v Speaker 1>were going to tempt there. On the previous drive, they

0:41:40.719 --> 0:41:44.480
<v Speaker 1>went tempo, taking over nine forty five left, which was

0:41:44.520 --> 0:41:46.919
<v Speaker 1>the field goal drive. They got right him up twenty

0:41:46.960 --> 0:41:51.800
<v Speaker 1>seven thirteen, which, by the way, this guy's money. That

0:41:52.000 --> 0:41:55.080
<v Speaker 1>was the forty five yards. I mean that was basically

0:41:55.160 --> 0:41:58.399
<v Speaker 1>to seal the game, right, and he just right down

0:41:58.560 --> 0:42:01.319
<v Speaker 1>the middle. I love the Scott he's amazing. We got

0:42:01.360 --> 0:42:05.440
<v Speaker 1>the best, and I wonder if okay, it's the opponent

0:42:05.560 --> 0:42:08.080
<v Speaker 1>factoring into this. Okay, we can we can just go

0:42:08.200 --> 0:42:12.239
<v Speaker 1>ahead and throw it here. And because this game's in hand,

0:42:13.120 --> 0:42:16.920
<v Speaker 1>you don't they I don't want to go because they won.

0:42:17.080 --> 0:42:21.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to be that guy. But you don't.

0:42:21.280 --> 0:42:25.480
<v Speaker 1>You don't ever be counterproductive with your team as a coach,

0:42:26.239 --> 0:42:28.799
<v Speaker 1>especially as a quarterback in your defensive leader. You don't

0:42:29.320 --> 0:42:34.160
<v Speaker 1>do things that you know. Yeah, you just don't. And

0:42:34.360 --> 0:42:36.640
<v Speaker 1>and we we do that a couple of games and

0:42:37.280 --> 0:42:42.239
<v Speaker 1>we've learned to accept it. Uh so yeah, yeah, so

0:42:43.280 --> 0:42:45.320
<v Speaker 1>but this, this is what I think the Cowboys is.

0:42:45.520 --> 0:42:47.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, even if when we get into the playoffs,

0:42:47.840 --> 0:42:49.480
<v Speaker 1>we can go to TOWNPA, we can go to wherever

0:42:49.560 --> 0:42:54.080
<v Speaker 1>we're going to Carolina, and it's gonna be a time

0:42:54.120 --> 0:42:56.320
<v Speaker 1>where you said, wow, you know you didn't have to

0:42:56.400 --> 0:42:58.640
<v Speaker 1>do that. Yeah, we didn't have to do that. But uh,

0:42:58.840 --> 0:43:00.640
<v Speaker 1>it's because that I knew a play you was Brando,

0:43:00.640 --> 0:43:02.399
<v Speaker 1>because the first thing I said, looking at the game,

0:43:02.480 --> 0:43:05.279
<v Speaker 1>I said, wow, Nick Sable would have pulled Kiff into

0:43:05.320 --> 0:43:06.759
<v Speaker 1>the size and looking at it, that's why you're going

0:43:06.840 --> 0:43:09.080
<v Speaker 1>that way. You missed it right, you know what I'm saying.

0:43:09.280 --> 0:43:12.600
<v Speaker 1>You can't stay here with that. Well, but that's they're trying.

0:43:12.760 --> 0:43:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Who we are, but they're trying to close the game.

0:43:15.080 --> 0:43:18.520
<v Speaker 1>They averaged two point seven yards to carry. So if

0:43:18.600 --> 0:43:21.120
<v Speaker 1>you ran the ball, okay, fine, you're giving it back.

0:43:21.160 --> 0:43:23.640
<v Speaker 1>Because it's been in the last couple of months of

0:43:23.680 --> 0:43:26.200
<v Speaker 1>the season there they have been running in the ball.

0:43:26.400 --> 0:43:29.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean yes, I know, especially second half of games

0:43:29.480 --> 0:43:32.920
<v Speaker 1>where they would have a twelve play touchdown drive and

0:43:33.040 --> 0:43:35.839
<v Speaker 1>there's nine runs on that touchdown. Well, the next time

0:43:35.920 --> 0:43:38.600
<v Speaker 1>they got but they weren't having the success running the

0:43:38.640 --> 0:43:42.719
<v Speaker 1>ball against Tennessee. Yeah, he was trying to get a drive,

0:43:42.880 --> 0:43:45.320
<v Speaker 1>going to take time off, right, Yeah, and they just

0:43:45.560 --> 0:43:47.960
<v Speaker 1>keep the ball. Yes, because the next drive when they

0:43:48.080 --> 0:43:54.080
<v Speaker 1>came with like three minutes left, three and chamo, it

0:43:54.239 --> 0:43:57.560
<v Speaker 1>was third and eight. I don't call, I don't call who.

0:43:57.640 --> 0:44:00.279
<v Speaker 1>He passed it too. He did a smity. He did

0:44:00.320 --> 0:44:03.600
<v Speaker 1>a smoke screen to see d which is basically a run, right,

0:44:03.640 --> 0:44:08.040
<v Speaker 1>and it's a safe pass. Gonna stop, But that's not

0:44:08.120 --> 0:44:13.000
<v Speaker 1>gonna stop the plot. Why would need to seal this win?

0:44:13.120 --> 0:44:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Hey man, you want you got your third straight hundred

0:44:15.680 --> 0:44:18.480
<v Speaker 1>yard game here he got two yards against hundred. Temp

0:44:18.640 --> 0:44:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Tempo works, but see, tempo works both ways. You walk

0:44:23.160 --> 0:44:26.000
<v Speaker 1>out of the huddle, you look at the clock and

0:44:26.160 --> 0:44:28.800
<v Speaker 1>you snap it with two or three seconds left. Temple

0:44:28.920 --> 0:44:31.759
<v Speaker 1>works both ways. And that's all Bill is saying. Yeah,

0:44:31.920 --> 0:44:34.080
<v Speaker 1>you know we could have got a minute and fifty

0:44:34.160 --> 0:44:36.279
<v Speaker 1>five or two minutes because we have been walking out

0:44:36.320 --> 0:44:39.200
<v Speaker 1>of the huddle. I mean, yeah, I knew we weren't

0:44:39.200 --> 0:44:41.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna run the ball. If you just knew it, you

0:44:41.560 --> 0:44:44.600
<v Speaker 1>knew it. I mean I was glad. I was like,

0:44:44.800 --> 0:44:47.160
<v Speaker 1>I was wondering why we didn't throw more shorter pass

0:44:47.239 --> 0:44:49.680
<v Speaker 1>because they couldn't cover CD the you know, they couldn't

0:44:49.719 --> 0:44:52.799
<v Speaker 1>cover t Y and I tight end. I was like, wow,

0:44:52.880 --> 0:44:57.000
<v Speaker 1>why we ain't dinking and talking? Because the boy you

0:44:57.080 --> 0:44:58.719
<v Speaker 1>saw zeke man, I'm gonna get out of this, he

0:44:58.920 --> 0:45:07.759
<v Speaker 1>believe one time he looked. I saw that too. He

0:45:07.960 --> 0:45:12.359
<v Speaker 1>was the one run he had though, and he didn't

0:45:12.360 --> 0:45:14.360
<v Speaker 1>even get hit. He just said, I'm not getting hit.

0:45:16.040 --> 0:45:19.880
<v Speaker 1>You never seen tired, man. He looked tired. That was

0:45:20.560 --> 0:45:23.360
<v Speaker 1>I just, well, it goes back to what we talked about,

0:45:23.440 --> 0:45:27.160
<v Speaker 1>the exhaustion. I just looked like a tired team at times.

0:45:27.360 --> 0:45:30.640
<v Speaker 1>And once again looked tired, but still came through to play.

0:45:30.960 --> 0:45:34.680
<v Speaker 1>Probably a little mentally tired too. Yeah right, and still

0:45:34.960 --> 0:45:37.560
<v Speaker 1>won the game. Yeah, and yes we're playing against back

0:45:37.600 --> 0:45:41.040
<v Speaker 1>all that still won the game. Bill, you played football

0:45:41.600 --> 0:45:44.719
<v Speaker 1>in your days up to my sophomore year in high school? Yeah,

0:45:45.000 --> 0:45:48.440
<v Speaker 1>did you ever get did you ever get ridicule for winning?

0:45:50.640 --> 0:45:53.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm serious just thinking that for the one four weeks.

0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:56.640
<v Speaker 1>Coach McCarthy been like he'd been dreading to come to

0:45:56.760 --> 0:46:04.000
<v Speaker 1>the mic. I mean I didn't end. Yeah, so win

0:46:04.200 --> 0:46:09.680
<v Speaker 1>was every I was telling the telling the story yesterday.

0:46:09.840 --> 0:46:14.080
<v Speaker 1>I said when I was fourth grade, Okay, first year

0:46:14.120 --> 0:46:16.440
<v Speaker 1>I played organized football Irvan y m c A. We

0:46:16.520 --> 0:46:18.680
<v Speaker 1>won the championship. We had a quarterback named Neil Turner

0:46:18.719 --> 0:46:22.200
<v Speaker 1>who was All American. Okay, he won the championship game

0:46:22.239 --> 0:46:24.520
<v Speaker 1>at Irving School Stadium forty two to seven. Next year

0:46:24.800 --> 0:46:27.480
<v Speaker 1>I played for the Army. I was the starting quarterback.

0:46:28.160 --> 0:46:32.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, you know how many touchdowns we scored that year? Zero?

0:46:34.960 --> 0:46:37.000
<v Speaker 1>At the end, at the end of the season, they

0:46:37.040 --> 0:46:39.800
<v Speaker 1>went and got me glasses, and I'm like, what, no

0:46:39.920 --> 0:46:42.520
<v Speaker 1>wonder I could no wonder, I couldn't play quarterback. I

0:46:42.560 --> 0:46:44.920
<v Speaker 1>couldn't see the receiver. It was like a whole new

0:46:45.040 --> 0:46:47.440
<v Speaker 1>world opened up to me. I got these glasses, Now,

0:46:47.840 --> 0:46:49.760
<v Speaker 1>I would have been in all Hall of Fame quarterback

0:46:54.160 --> 0:46:56.279
<v Speaker 1>all right. They were scared to play me, so I

0:46:56.440 --> 0:46:59.680
<v Speaker 1>never got exhausted. I would be scared for you to play.

0:47:00.239 --> 0:47:03.960
<v Speaker 1>My mom was too. Although there was one game we

0:47:04.040 --> 0:47:07.879
<v Speaker 1>were sophomore year, were undefeated and we had to play

0:47:08.320 --> 0:47:11.960
<v Speaker 1>thorn Ridge, which was a really good football school, and

0:47:12.040 --> 0:47:16.479
<v Speaker 1>they had this freshman named Quinn Buckner. We all knew

0:47:16.520 --> 0:47:20.400
<v Speaker 1>about Quinn buck right, and he didn't play the first

0:47:20.440 --> 0:47:22.440
<v Speaker 1>time we met. We played him twice that year. We

0:47:22.520 --> 0:47:24.320
<v Speaker 1>beat him the first time. The second time. All we

0:47:24.400 --> 0:47:27.080
<v Speaker 1>could talk about, Oh, this Quinn Buckner's playing in this game.
