But we'll go through 35 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 6: some of that stuff and get you guys up to speed. 36 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 6: Let's start what we normally start on a Monday, and 37 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 6: I want to go around and give have you guys 38 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 6: give me what you think was the storyline of this 39 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 6: game other than the fact that it was drunk. 40 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 3: Everybody jump on Dak's back and let's look. You know, 41 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 3: I think if Dak is going to be leading this thing, 42 00:01:58,240 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 3: he's going to be in charge of this thing and 43 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 3: we live and die by him. Cool, and we all 44 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 3: felt like the Giants defense was the hearder of the 45 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 3: units to deal with. And you know, pass Rush it 46 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 3: bore tow us up a little bit early, but you know, 47 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 3: Dak knows how to handle nonsense going on around him. Man, 48 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 3: shout out to the Giants. They did a really good 49 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 3: job in the first quarter. They gave the ball back 50 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 3: to the Cowboys with six minutes left, so first drive 51 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 3: almost a three and out. They would have, you know, 52 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 3: had the fourth down quarterback sneak that didn't necessarily work 53 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 3: out time management. Cowboys have to clean that up. But 54 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 3: the Cowboys definitely scored what thirty seven points in three quarters, 55 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 3: So shout out to Dak in them. 56 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think to me, there's the and you mentioned 57 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 2: about Dak and stuff in the offense, So I think 58 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 2: there's some things that they have to look at defensively, yes, sir, 59 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 2: better here and you know, and and a lot of 60 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 2: it is you know, we talk about some coverages in 61 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 2: the way that Matt Eberfuss plays it. But we also 62 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 2: kind of kind of get an idea though, is is 63 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: everything that they're doing. Is everything they're doing, you know, 64 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 2: to the best of the ability of the players that 65 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: they have. And it's not me here. It's my responsibility 66 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: to to be like say, hey, this is good and 67 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 2: this is bad, you know when when you but there's 68 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 2: just just doesn't look like to me, there's fits and 69 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 2: there doesn't like there's a lot of communication and there's 70 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: some things I'm sure that they're looking at right now 71 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 2: that we're breaking down. Cover two is pretty simple to play, 72 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 2: you know, And if you're passing guys off to guys 73 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: who aren't particularly good Cover two players, I'm me personally, 74 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 2: Donovan Wilson is not a Cover two player. He's just not. 75 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 2: And you know, you put him on a hash or 76 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 2: you put Donald Wilson single high, and it's not like 77 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 2: can be very critical of Donald Wilson, and that's that's 78 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 2: not a slam at him. That's a slam on the 79 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 2: coaching staff for you know, not seeing that Donovan Wilson 80 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 2: is going to struggle in those kinds of situations, whether 81 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 2: you know, you know, you look at it with Digs 82 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 2: in the situation you think, well man, Digs is just 83 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: getting run by, But then you look at the ball 84 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 2: that goes down the field of Neighbors. Is the final 85 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 2: touchdown there, the one that he makes. I mean, it's 86 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: just it's like it's, you know, Donovan's looking at something, 87 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 2: Diggs is looking at something. Neighbors is now even with them, 88 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 2: and now he's separated. You got to ask yourself, are 89 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 2: you what are you? What are you thinking about? Here? 90 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 2: You could play Cover two and play zone and all 91 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 2: that all day. But if you just don't have the 92 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 2: guys that are capable of playing it to how you 93 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 2: want to play it, that's coaching malpractice right there. And 94 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 2: that's and that's the unfortunate thing. Yes, you do not 95 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 2: have a pass rush right now. Yes, Well, Jerry was 96 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 2: taking a bite of the nachos up in the press 97 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 2: box or up in his box, he was. He was 98 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 2: making a call to to try and get some help. 99 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 2: But if you're going to not bring pressure, and if 100 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 2: you're not going to bring blester blitzers, and you're gonna 101 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 2: play zone and cover two stuff and playing against a 102 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 2: veteran quarterback, there are going to be problems with your 103 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 2: pass defense. 104 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's interesting because we'll get into more of the 105 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 6: the whys of what we think on that defense. But 106 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 6: it's interesting to me that that yesterday you just saw 107 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 6: the difference between week one and week two. Now, don't 108 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 6: get me wrong, the Eagles had their way in the 109 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 6: first half of that game offensively as well, But it 110 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 6: does make you wonder, if you know, when you play 111 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 6: quarterbacks that are less experienced, maybe like this weekend, when 112 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 6: you play the Bears, playing this sort of zone may 113 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 6: confuse them. It may give you extra time, you may 114 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 6: be able to win there. But when you're playing veteran quarterbacks, 115 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 6: like if they've got time and they're just looking for 116 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 6: a guy to find an open area of your zone 117 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 6: and you're not great at zone, that seems like a 118 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 6: really really bad mix for the Cowboys. And so far 119 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 6: the results have said, that's a really bad mix for 120 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 6: the Cowboys. 121 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 3: This is gonna make us really mad. Russell Wilson's gonna 122 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 3: go out there next week versus the Chiefs. You say, Brian, 123 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 3: he's gonna throw for like ninety seven yards. It's gonna 124 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 3: bother everybody, and you know, neighbors gonna be mad again. 125 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 3: And you go, hey man, how did this happen versus Cowboys? 126 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 3: But it didn't happen versus Eagles, and the they go 127 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 3: do this. You know, you can't play all these quarterbacks 128 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 3: the same. You know, Jalen Hurts got bad eyes, so 129 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,799 Speaker 3: when you're going against Jalen Hurst, maybe these muddy looks 130 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 3: work versus him. But Russell Wilson been doing this for 131 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 3: fifteen years now, so he knows what your regular cover 132 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 3: three and your regular Tempa two looks like. Now you 133 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 3: have to change this thing up week the week. Now, 134 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 3: how is it viuch that aj Brown and you know 135 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 3: Smith and all these guys get shut down, you know 136 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 3: per se, but one Dale Robinson goes crazy against you. Well, 137 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 3: I mean, you have to do something different every single week. 138 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 3: You can't just be like, we're gonna run forty seven 139 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 3: out of forty eight zone plays and then do the 140 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 3: same thing the very next week, because they got film 141 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 3: on you doing that. This Cowboys defense isn't They don't 142 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 3: have a black belt in Flus's defense, right, This is 143 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 3: all still brand new. Some of these guys are fresh 144 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 3: off Zimmers defense, so you have to do some things 145 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 3: to adapt to them. Dan Quinn I give him credit 146 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 3: for this all the time, notorious Cover three guy in 147 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 3: Seattle or whatever. But he comes here he says, hey man, 148 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 3: we got some man dudes, some pass rushers. You know 149 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 3: this will benefit us. So Taylor, your playing to these guys. 150 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 3: Shody is running the football because he got a running 151 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 3: back back and run the football. If running don't work, 152 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 3: we're gonna throw the ball. Just do something different. I 153 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 3: need Flus and I'm just a dude with a camera 154 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 3: and a microphone that's barely working. For Dallas Cowboys dot Com. 155 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 3: I just need flues to look at this much, to 156 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 3: look at the opponent and just make adjustments every single 157 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 3: week and you'll be fine, don't I don't think the 158 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 3: Cowboys have a talent issue on defense, but your talent. 159 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 3: You can't ask this group of past rushers to get 160 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 3: pressure with four number eleven ain't here. Sure, Pika Marsons 161 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 3: ain't here no more, because I can't say Pika Marsis 162 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 3: is not here anymore. So you got to get pressure 163 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 3: with more than four guys. It just is what it is. 164 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 3: You you probably got man cover corners. Try to throw 165 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 3: some man stuff in at it to compliment your man 166 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 3: cover corners, and you know, I'll let y'all talk. 167 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 2: I agree. No, I think you're absolutely right about that. 168 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 2: And that's what coaches always talk about. Hey, we got 169 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,559 Speaker 2: to put our players in position to make to make place, 170 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 2: you know, defensively. You know you made some plays during 171 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 2: the you made some plays during the overtime period. You know, 172 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 2: the interception was the The interception was because Sam Williams 173 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 2: got pressure. Sam Williams got into Russell Wilson's face and 174 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 2: made him throw the ball over the top of him 175 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, But if Russell Wilson's standing 176 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 2: in that pocket like he had the majority of that day, 177 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 2: he's got neighbors to the outside that ball just he's 178 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,679 Speaker 2: taken a shot to try and go make a play 179 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 2: and who knows, you're probably going to get a pass 180 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 2: interference called the way that the way that that crew 181 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: was calling that game yesterday. You know, so to me, 182 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 2: there's there was a It just goes back to like 183 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 2: you've got to figure out what your guys can and 184 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: cannot do. And you know, maybe maybe it was fool's 185 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 2: goal that you saw what you did in the first game, 186 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: But but Boch is absolutely right. If you've got a 187 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 2: veteran guy who's seen all these things, it's a little 188 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 2: bit more difficult to deal with that. 189 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, putting numbers to this. 190 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 6: In week one, as you mentioned, watch next Genesta said 191 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 6: they ran zone one hundred percent of the time. Yesterday, 192 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 6: Next Gen stat said they ran zone ninety six percent 193 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 6: of the time, and to give you contexts, last year 194 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 6: they ran zones seventy one percent of the time during 195 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 6: the season. One of the things I have a question about, 196 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 6: and I think the shot he has been very adamant 197 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 6: about this since the opening of training camp really going 198 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 6: back into the off season. One thing he kept saying 199 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 6: over and over is we're going. 200 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 3: To be multiple. 201 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 6: We're going to be multiple, And he was talking about 202 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 6: in every facet of the game they planned to be multiple. 203 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 6: They wanted to do a lot of different things to 204 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 6: show teams a lot of different looks. It seems strange 205 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 6: to me, if we really are focused on being multiple, 206 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 6: that they would be so so heavy on zone. Does 207 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 6: that strike you guys as a little bit off or 208 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 6: is this something that's just normally The only problem. 209 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 5: Here is that they're just not good at it. 210 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 2: Well, there was a couple of times there in that 211 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 2: game where they tried to the old school Monti Kiff 212 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 2: and we've seen this, and you could go all the 213 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 2: way back to the Tampa days, and with Derek Brooks 214 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 2: playing as they're playing too deep and at the snap 215 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 2: both safeties are going to there are splitting, and then 216 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 2: you're trying to run a Mike linebacker, who a Hall 217 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: of Fame Mike linebacker through the middle of the defense. 218 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 2: But now you're asking that's not Samborn, and it surely 219 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 2: isn't Murray, you know, and Murray got picked off the 220 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 2: one time. I mean, they make a big play on it, 221 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 2: gets picked off by Johnson. But you're trying to play 222 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 2: a scheme where now you're kind of looking at your 223 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 2: guys and say, yeah, well this is tried and true 224 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 2: and this is what we do. Yeah, you did it 225 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 2: with Hall of Fame players. I mean that's what Mani 226 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 2: and Rod Marinelli and those guys did. So you've got 227 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 2: to figure out, you know, it can say you have 228 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 2: to be able to mix some man coverage stuff in there. 229 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 2: You have to be able to throw some people off 230 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 2: that way, you know, search around it and Fonchkin excellent 231 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 2: point by him. Dan Quinn was searching for things to do. 232 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 2: Dan Quinn was kind of a disciple of what we're 233 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 2: talking about, and then he morphed into, man, we've got 234 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 2: some man coverage guys, we've got some rushers, We've got 235 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 2: some you know, they've got to figure these things out. 236 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 2: You can't just keep it is as simplistic as it 237 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 2: is right now and expect it like, oh, okay, well 238 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 2: this is just gonna it worked against Jalen Hurts, It's sure, 239 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,439 Speaker 2: what's gonna work against Russell Wilson do you know it's 240 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 2: just it's just not that's just not the way you 241 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 2: can operate. 242 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 3: Do you do you guys think that this will be 243 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 3: something that'll get better the closer we get to October 244 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 3: November or something like maybe they just need time playing 245 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 3: together figuring this thing out. Or do you need different 246 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 3: dudes to do different stuff because you do have a 247 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 3: linebacker to run real fast coming back and for thanksgiving 248 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,719 Speaker 3: a legl according to him, But do you have a 249 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 3: safety problem because I saw the people on you know, 250 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 3: online saying, hey, can we go trade for safety now? 251 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 3: Brian brous Or, dere whoever. 252 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, you got some moment with Derek. 253 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, I would just say I think it's a I 254 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 6: think it's a personnel issue. Not again, I agree with you, Brian. 255 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 6: I don't think the personnel is bad. I think they're 256 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 6: being asked to do things that aren't in their wheelhouse. 257 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 4: Right. 258 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 6: Let's let's be clear about what Donovan Wilson has been 259 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 6: with the Cowboys. Yes, I'm not gonna say what he 260 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 6: is over. I'm saying what he's been with the Cowboys. 261 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,079 Speaker 6: He makes an impact when he's down near the line 262 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 6: of scrimmage. He has a box safety that's when he 263 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 6: has been at his best, that's when we've seen him 264 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 6: making plays. And to say you're gonna say, okay, now, 265 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 6: I want you to just take basic the deep half 266 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 6: of the field that has not been where we've seen 267 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 6: him at best. So I think we're playing I think 268 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 6: they're playing him out of position. I don't think these 269 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 6: linebackers are necessarily the kind that are athletic enough to 270 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 6: play deep. On several plays when they were in cover 271 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 6: to cover to Brian, to your point, there just wasn't 272 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 6: enough depth from the linebackers and so from if you 273 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,079 Speaker 6: do that, then it basically leaves this huge void in 274 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 6: the middle of the field. Other times, what they would 275 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 6: do is basically they'd send a guy up the up 276 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 6: the outside. 277 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 5: He would be deeper than the corner. 278 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 6: The safety couldn't get over there in time, big game, 279 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 6: and so to cover too. They just they don't have 280 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 6: the personnel, or at least right now this play, this 281 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 6: personnel yesterday did not show they have the ability to 282 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 6: do consistently what this defense is asking them to do. 283 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 3: Or do they have those guys and they aren't playing 284 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 3: those guys. You know, lea foul had less than ten 285 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 3: reps last night. That could be a thing they could 286 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 3: hit at seven in week one or eight something that 287 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 3: six and week one I believe it was like eight nine. 288 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 3: Last night. I heard a lot of people saying, maybe 289 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,719 Speaker 3: wy Ye Thomas would be better fit to doing a 290 00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 3: job like that. Marquis Bell maybe could do a job. 291 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 5: You know, Bell is another guy that. 292 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 2: I would say, Thomas is the guy. Thomas is the 293 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 2: guy that I that I would surely think about right there. 294 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 3: But they both turn run how. 295 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,719 Speaker 2: About and how about maybe even you know and think 296 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 2: about this. You know, we saw a little bit of Bridges. 297 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 2: I think I saw him for one or two plays 298 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 2: in that game on defense Bridges who you know they 299 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 2: got Whezy rat because all I know is Weezy Wey. 300 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 2: This is Wheezy. Is the taller one, the tall taller, 301 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 2: taller Wheezy. So yeah, Weezy former former safety. 302 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:31,679 Speaker 7: You know. 303 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 2: But a guy that now has played some cover stuff, 304 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,559 Speaker 2: do you find a way to and then they're like, 305 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:40,439 Speaker 2: oh no, he's a corner. Okay, Well, to me, Thomas 306 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 2: is a better option than Bell. Bell's kind of like 307 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 2: Wilson down player is what I would think about there. 308 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 2: But you know, the thing with Wilson, and it's really 309 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 2: it's just feel. It's feel, it's vision, and you know, 310 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 2: he just doesn't have that that feel for when they're 311 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 2: running on him to be able to react. Takes him 312 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 2: time to see, oh my gosh, what's happening. And now 313 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 2: he's having to turn to go. It's they're asking him 314 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 2: to do something I just don't think that he is 315 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 2: comfortable doing. And they've and let's see if they've got 316 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: Thomas or Bridges or somebody like that that can that 317 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 2: can maybe maybe play that spot. 318 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 3: Just be clear. I don't want to take Donovan off 319 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 3: the field, because I think he does great, great things 320 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 3: in the rank game. I just don't want Donovan running backwards. 321 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 6: That's all we got out how to use him real 322 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 6: quick before we go to break though. Was any of 323 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 6: what we saw yesterday from the defense a result of 324 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 6: not having Bland on the field. 325 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 3: I think they was going to throw the ball all 326 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 3: over the place regardless you and be as successful. Sure 327 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 3: you're you're not getting past rush at all, your safeties 328 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 3: out of line, you know, Uh, leverage was an issue 329 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 3: and neighbors as a dude in general, I don't I don't. 330 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 3: I don't think Bland would have helped too much. 331 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 2: Yeah.

We could 421 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:32,879 Speaker 6: have got worse, but you we really could, and we 422 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 6: might go back by the way. By the way, we 423 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 6: might go back to it because there's some other things 424 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 6: we probably missed that we didn't get a chance to 425 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 6: talk to. 426 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 5: Let's talk about the offensive side of the ball. 427 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 6: Yesterday, Dak Prescott was thirty eight or fifty two, seventy 428 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 6: three percent completion, three hundred and sixty one passing yards, 429 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 6: two touchdowns, an interception, and a ninety six point seven rating. Now, 430 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 6: the offense did start off somewhat slow. It took them 431 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 6: over on some playing. But that being said, how much 432 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 6: of that was on Dak and how much of that 433 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 6: was on the play calling? How much of that was 434 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 6: on the offensive line. Where do you think the blame 435 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 6: was for their slow starting? How did they get it 436 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 6: actually turned around? 437 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 3: I think the Giants just did a decent job of 438 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 3: knowing you First of all, you didn't really get that 439 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 3: many chances at it in the first quarter. But besides that, 440 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 3: knowing that little play action boot waggle tight end to 441 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 3: the flats and Shoty kept calling it, and eventually he 442 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 3: stopped calling it and they went more vertical with Jake. 443 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 3: So good for Shotty. They're making the adjustment lose. Also, 444 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 3: also we talked about the offense, I'm just talking my 445 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 3: coaches in general. Also too, I think the run game 446 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 3: got going as well, and and that helped us out 447 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 3: a lot. You know, I just I just had to 448 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 3: keep giving credit. Man thirty three is a lot better 449 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 3: than what I thought he was. And when he's you know, 450 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 3: catching dump offs and getting more yards because he's whooping 451 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 3: hell out of people downfield, right, that just makes Das 452 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 3: makes Dak's job easier. Uh So we can definitely talk 453 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 3: about you know, running back later and what that means 454 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 3: for the other running backs and all that, but just 455 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 3: as far as what the what the Giants did whooping 456 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 3: your line up front, and it happened to all of 457 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 3: them except for Big Tyler, which is seventy three, but 458 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 3: all the rest of them, they kind of went through 459 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 3: their ups and downs here. The tight ends helped a 460 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 3: little bit. The running back stayed in a handful of times. 461 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 3: But I did like when the when the Cowboys chose 462 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 3: to help with the tight end but throw to the 463 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,439 Speaker 3: running back. I think that's something that just kept working. 464 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 3: So they just kept going going to it. But after 465 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 3: a while we just talked about it here, that kind 466 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 3: of got a feel for when the offensive line was 467 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 3: was gonna lose up front. Right. It sounds crazy, but 468 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 3: he got a feel for it. And the ball came 469 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 3: out right when Dak was getting hit. So Dak did 470 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 3: get hit more towards the towards the end of the game. 471 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 3: But it's like Lamb for thirty pickings and thirty you know, 472 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 3: Ferguson downfield or whatever, So shouts out to Dak for 473 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 3: kind of figuring this thing out and Turf and had 474 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 3: a good game too. 475 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, the point was made about at one 476 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 2: point in the first that Dallas had run six plays 477 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 2: to the Giants twenty two. Crazy, you know, so now 478 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 2: you're now you're in a little bit of a bind 479 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 2: with that whole situation, and you're, you know, you're going 480 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 2: three and our and stuff like that. I kind of 481 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 2: felt like that if you look at the it was 482 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 2: the eleven I think it was the eleven twenty six 483 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 2: mark in the second quarter, they throw a thirty three 484 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 2: yard pass to the ceed Lamb, they max protect the 485 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 2: thing and they kind of rolled back to the right 486 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 2: and they sling that ball all the way across the 487 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 2: field to the left. After that point, I kind of 488 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 2: felt like, okay, now, you know, it kind of woke 489 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 2: them up. Then Ferguson got a ball and it was 490 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 2: like shot. He was in a little bit of a 491 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 2: funk calling, like he had been so good on the 492 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 2: first couple of drives against the Eagles. I mean it 493 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 2: was like, you know, Mike, You're like, whoa look at this. 494 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 2: You know, combinations of run passed together, everything getting married. 495 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 2: You know. Just the fact that he didn't have the 496 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 2: ball a whole whole bunch in the first I think 497 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 2: affected the way that he kind of called that game. 498 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 2: But after that passed that thirty three yard pass to CD, 499 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 2: I kind of felt like he got it going. But 500 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,919 Speaker 2: to you guys point as well, the one the second 501 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 2: half passes. You know, if you remember, he throws a 502 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 2: ball down the field to Lamb, it's a big, big 503 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 2: play and he gets whacked. I mean it's a it's 504 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 2: a it's a roughing the passer penalty. That just showed 505 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 2: you though that Dak he had to hang in there 506 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 2: and hang in there and make some throws with some guys, 507 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 2: and he took some hits, is what he did. But 508 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,160 Speaker 2: I felt like early in the game it was more 509 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 2: kind of more of that than it was the later part. Yeah, 510 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 2: the numbers will tell you. I'm sure you're going to 511 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,719 Speaker 2: tell me, Derek that there were more pressures and all that, 512 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 2: but it just seemed like to me the routes were better. 513 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 2: They got Pickens involved too. That's you got him going 514 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,679 Speaker 2: the slant. The slant he makes on third down late 515 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,160 Speaker 2: in the game. What a great catch he's got inside. 516 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 2: They got inside leverage on him, and he still runs 517 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 2: the slant and Dak puts it right on him. How 518 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 2: about the out route for the touchdown that he set 519 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 2: up him again, boom right there at the line. That's 520 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 2: a tight window throw. That thing could have got picked 521 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 2: and gone the other way, and then the next thing 522 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 2: you know, you're losing a football game. So Dak did 523 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 2: a great job of hanging in there, Pickens getting involved, 524 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 2: Lamb making some plays, the offensive line, you know, doing 525 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 2: what they had to do to make sure that the 526 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 2: ball got out when they could. 527 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, I would say this shot shoddy and Dak yesterday 528 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 6: proved a lot to me. Now, it's early in the season, 529 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 6: but the way they adapted, because at the early part 530 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 6: of that game, I don't think they had much much 531 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,159 Speaker 6: going offensively. I don't think Dak was necessarily at his 532 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 6: best at the early part of that game. But what 533 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 6: I saw was as that game went on, I started 534 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 6: to get confidence by watching Dak that they were going 535 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 6: to make it happen. 536 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 5: Like as you got to. 537 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 6: The end of that game, and then even in overtime 538 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 6: when they had the ball, I felt like, Oh, they're 539 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 6: gonna make something happen. Because Dak got better as the 540 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 6: game wore on, the play calling got better as the 541 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 6: game gone on, The offense started to jail. I'm started 542 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 6: to click a little bit more as a game went on, 543 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 6: and that's not something we've always seen around here. Sometimes 544 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 6: when it goes off track, it just stays off track. 545 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 6: And so I think that was a big credit to 546 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 6: both Shoddy and to Dak into the whole offense. 547 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 5: But that being said, what are we gonna say something? 548 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, but real quick though, if it could, there was 549 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 2: a couple I mean, I'm sorry, you need to finish. 550 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 5: I didn't mean to put no, I was gonna move 551 00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 5: to another topic, so real. 552 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 2: Quick though, though. You know where you give credit to 553 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 2: Shoddy for some things, An absolutely him and Dek, but 554 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 2: also to me with the intent that they got the 555 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: delay game penalty when they had a chance to get 556 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 2: a first down right there, and they looked like they 557 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 2: had the intent to get the first down and they 558 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 2: just didn't get the. 559 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 5: They have to be just a brain farm. But well, 560 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 5: but if you look. 561 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 2: At this crew, if you look at that crew last 562 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 2: week and the in the game I think they had 563 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 2: the Pittsburgh Jets game, they had two clock violations. You know, 564 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 2: so you got to be a yeah, you got to 565 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 2: be aware of like who you're dealing with in that crew, 566 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 2: and that with these crews, if they're going to call 567 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 2: roughing the pass or if they're gonna call if they're 568 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 2: gonna call lining up in the backfield, you gotta be 569 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,199 Speaker 2: aware that this crew is gonna throw a flag. But 570 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 2: also too right before the half that could have been devastating. 571 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,640 Speaker 2: You know, we always talk about winning the middle eight, 572 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 2: you know, the four minutes before the end of the half, 573 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 2: and then the four minutes and you had that opportunity 574 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 2: to get some points and then turn around and get 575 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 2: points coming out. Yeah, and then you just completely you know, 576 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 2: poop in the bed and don't do anything the end 577 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 2: of half, and then dak thoes interceptions to start the 578 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 2: second half. So, you know, just unfortunate the way that 579 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 2: some of the game management stuff. That's really the one 580 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,199 Speaker 2: criticism I have as Schottenheimer is of how poorly that 581 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 2: those two were, those two segments were executed. 582 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree. 583 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 6: I just wonder on that play, particularly what they got 584 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 6: delay a game that seemed like he audible two or 585 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 6: three times, yeah, and the Giants basically gate like there 586 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 6: was a gaping hole in the middle of their defense. 587 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 6: I was like thatk just snapped the ball and run, run, 588 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 6: which is exactly what he did. 589 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 5: He just waited. 590 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 6: Yeah, And I don't know if he was trying to 591 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 6: get them off balanced by by continuing audible, but at 592 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 6: some point you's got to go, and I think they 593 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 6: missed that opportunity. 594 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. You kind of felt like that they were trying 595 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 2: to draw them, and I'm like, man, I see the 596 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 2: same thing the gap. Just step up and go, just 597 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 2: step up and run the play. But Bill Vinovich and 598 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 2: that crew, now that you know, they've got a little 599 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 2: bit of a hey the clock is the clock hit zero? 600 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 2: And I've seen it lot worse. I've seen clock hit 601 00:25:56,080 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 2: zero in no call. This thing went one then there 602 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 2: and then now you know the play, you're kind of 603 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 2: feeling like, whoa man that was? That was a quick 604 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 2: whistle right there. 605 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 3: So how was set up as a former center bron Brus. 606 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. They you know you if 607 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 3: you just line up and quarterback sneak it. Yeah, Dex 608 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 3: Lawrence is there. So what you really want is to go, Hey, 609 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 3: y'all were trying to get you to jump out side. 610 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 3: Chill audible. Hey, stay disciplined, don't jump off side, and 611 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 3: then we go and then we'll get you right right. 612 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 3: It's just that that was a really quick zero flag. 613 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 3: I've seen it go zero tick then flag, Oh I 614 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 3: have so so Yeah, Dak Dak and Shotty weren't kind 615 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 3: of wrong there. But the but the point is to 616 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 3: get the ball right at one and then go right. 617 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 3: But the flag came out. 618 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 5: Can't go ahead zero, it has to snap at one. 619 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 3: Got to be ed this one. So they did miss there, 620 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 3: but it was on purpose. 621 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 6: Yeah, all right, let's let's talk about Javonte Williams. He 622 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 6: had eighteen carriage fro ninety seven yards five point four average, 623 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 6: one touchdown. He had another six receptions for thirty three yards. 624 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 3: Uh. 625 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 6: The interesting part is they didn't really run a lot yesterday. 626 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 5: And I went back. 627 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 6: You know, at the end of the game, you look 628 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 6: at and you're like, well, they did go to overtime, 629 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 6: there was a shootout game, and they had fifty two 630 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 6: passes twenty eight runs. Maybe that was a result of 631 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,439 Speaker 6: what happened late in the game, but even in the 632 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,919 Speaker 6: first half before it was in that kind of situation. 633 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 6: I think what the Cowboys had six rushes in the 634 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 6: first half, I'm sorry, the first quarter, and then they 635 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 6: had what twenty one passes in the first quarter. Even 636 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 6: early in the game, they were throwing the ball a 637 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 6: lot more than the run. Do you think that that 638 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 6: was part of the reason why maybe they weren't finding 639 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 6: that rhythm. It's because maybe they should have been doing 640 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 6: a little bit more running early in the game. 641 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,159 Speaker 3: Let me tell you what I don't like about Miya McCarthy. 642 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 3: He don't work here no more. But when you used 643 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 3: to ask Mike, Hey, Mike, what's wrong with the run game? Oh, 644 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 3: we just need to run it more. We just need 645 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 3: some more attempts. And I would hate los this possible 646 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 3: for that out. I would hate when you see him 647 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 3: as we look up, there's j I would hate what 648 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 3: he's saying that just because you ran it doesn't mean 649 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,199 Speaker 3: that this is the right time to run it. The 650 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 3: Cowboys are seeming to find the right times to run it. 651 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 3: And it's not like Javonte Wieds going out there and 652 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 3: have in two hundred yard rushing games, right, But it's like, boy, 653 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 3: we're running the ball really well in the red zone 654 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 3: or at the goal line, where the Cowboys have always 655 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 3: had problems running the football, right. So I think Javonte 656 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 3: catching the football is just as much a part of 657 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 3: this thing as well. That little swing to the outside 658 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,679 Speaker 3: him catching and running somebody over. I think that's like 659 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 3: a run play also, so you know, them running is 660 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 3: definitely part of the rhythm or whatnot. But once they 661 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 3: got going running the ball, you saw, okay, they got 662 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 3: going doing everything else, but it was really hard to 663 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 3: get that rhythm when your first drive is nonsense and 664 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 3: the Giants is just holding the ball for so long. 665 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 3: But once it got going, it was going. 666 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 2: It was clear though that they were going to have 667 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 2: success when they did run the ball with Whims and 668 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 2: a lot of this has to do with him. It 669 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 2: didn't matter if it was actually outside left or outside right, 670 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 2: it was inside and going into this we kind of 671 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 2: in Vatch and I were talking about this last week 672 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 2: when we were breaking this down, is like do you 673 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 2: attack the edges for the Giants? Do you run stay 674 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 2: away from running the ball inside and try and run 675 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 2: the ball a little bit more on the edges. But 676 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 2: if you look at the way that Williams, the way 677 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 2: that carries broke down almost eight yards going to the 678 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 2: left side, outside left, ten yards going to outside right. 679 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 2: So give you know, give the tackle some credit, give 680 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 2: span Ford some credit to that big body is able 681 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 2: to get some you know, get some blocks and stuff 682 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 2: up front they were able to get. But Williams, Williams, 683 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 2: just his toughness and his ability to find the gaps 684 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 2: and then to make those runs I think was really 685 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 2: the most impressive thing yesterday. 686 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 5: All Right, we're gonna take our final break. 687 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 6: When we come back, I'm gonna ask this these former 688 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 6: offensive linemen, did you put the offensive line at a 689 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 6: disadvantage by not running more? Because sometimes what I've heard 690 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 6: is you want to get your offensive line going, especially 691 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 6: this one that's young, and I do think they're an 692 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 6: aggressive offensive line. Giving them a top, the opportunity to 693 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 6: mash people a little bit can kind of get them going. 694 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 6: And we saw some problems yesterday in the past game. 695 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 6: We'll talk about that.

I know we've 759 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 6: been we've been harping on some things Cowboys could as 760 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 6: should have done, but let's not forget they won. And 761 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 6: I'm ask people that always say in the NFL, I 762 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 6: don't care what the what what it looks like as 763 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 6: much as I care about the result. A win is 764 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 6: a win is a win. You only get seventeen of these. 765 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 6: This was in the win column, so let's make sure 766 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 6: we also give a little credit. They figured it out, 767 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 6: they got a win, and they move on survive in advance. 768 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 5: All right, let's talk about the uh. 769 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 6: Let's continue on the conversation of the offensive line, and 770 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 6: I teased before we went into the break, really well, 771 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 6: you buck you guys. Both plays off played offensive line, 772 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 6: and I've heard from offensive lineman, you know, sometimes they 773 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 6: want the play caller to just say, we're gonna line 774 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 6: up and we're just gonna run through people. We're gonna 775 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 6: run the ball, and we're gonna be We're gonna be 776 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 6: the aggressors as opposed to when you're playing pass defense, 777 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 6: you're you're backing up, you know, you're playing more defense. 778 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 5: You're kind of just not letting them buy you. You're 779 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 5: kind of dancing. It's the dancing bear, you know whatever. 780 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 2: It was. 781 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 6: This a situation where some of what we saw from 782 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 6: this offensive line, which at times was not very good, 783 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 6: particularly in past protection, was a result of them not 784 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 6: giving them the ability to be the aggressors more often. 785 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 3: That's fair, that makes sense. And I think this offensive 786 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 3: line and how they run block with Williams and how 787 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 3: he runs, you know, I think it's easy to wear 788 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 3: down the defense. I think you saw it last week, 789 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 3: and you saw it towards the end of this game also, 790 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:56,479 Speaker 3: and maybe that would have helped the Tylers. Right, so 791 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 3: tall Tyler's like three twenty two he's like three twenty 792 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 3: two something like that. So letting him lean on Burns, 793 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 3: who's like two sixty to sixty five or so, he's 794 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 3: you know, slimmer of an edge guy, that would have 795 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 3: probably you know, given him the advantage, you know. But 796 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:14,439 Speaker 3: but instead Burns is good. He's just had a bunch 797 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 3: of water. He's fresh, and letting him be fast and 798 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 3: crafty and pass rush he got that could be a 799 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 3: disadvantage for him. Big Tyler who's Tyler Smith? He was 800 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 3: He was fine all day, every day, no matter what 801 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 3: you asked him to do. He's good. But Booker being young, 802 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 3: it's very much so to our advantage to let him 803 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 3: and b be punish and move guys and thump and 804 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 3: wear guys down as much as possible. It's just game 805 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 3: flow happened right, game flow. We just didn't get in 806 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 3: the rhythm and you just had to end up throwing 807 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 3: the ball, and just throwing the ball was just where 808 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 3: the advantage was. So the first taste of what you 809 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 3: got from Dexter Lawrence or Roy Jones, Robinson, I don't 810 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 3: know all three of his names, but the first thing 811 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 3: that you ran into with those guys was fresh pass Rusher. 812 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 3: This just doesn't benefit us. This isn't Tyrras Smith, Zach Martin, 813 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 3: Travis Frederick. They can line up and whoop you, however, 814 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,240 Speaker 3: but this group of offensive linemen that are probably better 815 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 3: run blockers now than pass blockers, it'll probably benefit them. 816 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 3: The lean on guys first and then had to deal 817 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:13,359 Speaker 3: with the past run. 818 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, this one really actually came down in the game 819 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 2: when you watch the tape, it came down to like 820 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 2: the heavy box or light box. Dallas had much more 821 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,280 Speaker 2: success running with six or less defenders in the box 822 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 2: than they did when they got seven or more. You know, 823 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 2: the yards per carry went down. It just seemed like 824 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 2: that they had a little bit more problems of like 825 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 2: maybe it was trying to secure down guys and and 826 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 2: then you're not getting you know, like we're in Philadelphia, 827 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 2: you kind of got guys up on second level blocks 828 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,399 Speaker 2: and things like that. But this one was really this 829 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 2: game came down to, you know, Dallas was really good 830 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 2: when it when it came to having to deal with 831 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 2: the lighter boxes, and maybe it's an adjustment that you 832 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 2: make if you're Dak Prescott and if you're Brian Schottenheimer, 833 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,760 Speaker 2: you kind of come up with the idea of maybe 834 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,880 Speaker 2: run past you know, check with me kind of situations, 835 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 2: you know, if you get and that can be on 836 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 2: the quarterback too. If the quarterback seees like, hey man, 837 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 2: we're having some success running against six or less defenders, 838 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 2: I'm going to need to run the ball here and 839 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 2: try and get a little bit of some rhythm that way. 840 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 2: I kind of felt like going into the game though 841 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 2: this week, throwing the ball was going to be if 842 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,399 Speaker 2: you could have protected the front, if you protect Dak, 843 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,800 Speaker 2: I felt like on this secondary you can make some plays. 844 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,280 Speaker 2: And you started, like we were talking about earlier, protecting 845 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,800 Speaker 2: it a little better, and then the ball was able 846 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 2: to get out and you were able to make some plays. 847 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 2: But I think it's going to be about Dallas is 848 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 2: going to have to and maybe teams will say, listen, 849 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 2: you want to play against Dallas, you got to play 850 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 2: against with heavy box because they will run. They will 851 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 2: run you out of that. If you put six or 852 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,919 Speaker 2: less down there, Dallas will run with Williams and they'll 853 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,400 Speaker 2: have some success doing it. But if you put the 854 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 2: extra guys in there, well, maybe that sets up some 855 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 2: stuff for the passing game. So it's kind of a 856 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 2: it's kind of like you're damned if you do, and 857 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 2: you're damned if you don't. But teams have got to 858 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 2: make a determination. Is Dallas's running game with light box 859 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 2: going to keep you from, you know, from playing that 860 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,360 Speaker 2: way or do you have to say, wait a minute, 861 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 2: they run the ball now with some effectiveness, we can't 862 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 2: do that. Well now, it helps pickings, it helps Ferguson, 863 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 2: it helps Lamb, it helps tober anybody else out there. 864 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 3: That's playing also too, You're not going to run into 865 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 3: another D line like this where there's like a dude, 866 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 3: like a bona fide dude lined up over your center 867 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 3: and three other guys that can get after it. I mean, 868 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 3: you have to play the Giants again. But like Green 869 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 3: Bay may be the other example where like why it 870 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 3: is cool, but why it's not Dexter Lawrence and there's 871 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 3: Mike on the other side there. But you know, I 872 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,799 Speaker 3: think match up one versus ones or whatnot. I just 873 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 3: think that this Giants D line group was just much 874 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 3: better than your Cowboys O line group. It'll be much 875 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:54,479 Speaker 3: different versus the next few teams. 876 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, the metrics will tell you in this game that 877 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 2: the Giants played at about fifty six percent of the time. 878 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,879 Speaker 2: So half the time when they were playing their front 879 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 2: they didn't think Dallas could run the ball. They said, okay, 880 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,360 Speaker 2: we can handle it with our edges, our defensive tackles 881 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 2: and our linebackers, and Dallas on half those half of 882 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 2: those carries were able to get you know, four plus 883 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 2: yards on those carries. So if you kind of look 884 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 2: at how this all broke down, fifty percent of the 885 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 2: time Dallas was having success. Teams are going to have 886 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,960 Speaker 2: to determine while is Williams and now a threat that 887 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 2: we can't just say, well, you know, teams will just 888 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 2: disregard Dallas's running game. You can't do that anymore. You can't. 889 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 6: Real quick, I was able when I went back. I 890 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 6: looked at every play in next Gen stats that had 891 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 6: that was considered a play where there was pressure. There 892 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,319 Speaker 6: were nineteen total of them. It was the breakdown of 893 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 6: the guys that gave up the pressure. Three of them 894 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 6: came just by five man protection against the blitz that 895 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 6: was a free man, so. 896 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 5: They got pressure. 897 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 6: Five were attributed to Guidon, four attributed to Steele, four 898 00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 6: attributed to Booker. 899 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 5: Three beat it to bebe. 900 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 6: Uh and it was interesting because a couple of the 901 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 6: ones that that that Bebie gave up. They were just 902 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 6: linebackers basically flitting him one and it was one on 903 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:09,400 Speaker 6: one and they. 904 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:09,839 Speaker 3: Just beat him. 905 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 5: I guess the speed just beat him. 906 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 4: Uh. 907 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 6: But but was there anything that you took from looking 908 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 6: at the offensive lineman and how they were giving up 909 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 6: these pressures? Uh that were common themes? Uh that you 910 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 6: think the Cowboys really just have to spend some time. 911 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, when they're dealing with the guy that and you've 912 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 2: got these long edge rushers that have some speed and 913 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 2: have a little and then then kind of know how 914 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 2: to break you down with hands and movement and stuff 915 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 2: like that. Voch help me with this one body position 916 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 2: is bad. And and sometimes these defenders will say they 917 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 2: know a guy like Steel who's played enough. You just 918 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,320 Speaker 2: walk him, you just take him. You just put out. 919 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 3: The hell is Elijah Gars, I haven't know who he was. 920 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 2: You put you just put your head in the middle 921 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:55,280 Speaker 2: of his chest and run him right back into the quarterback. 922 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 2: That's why we had some of these discussions about uh, 923 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 2: you know about a about Nate Thomas and even when 924 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:03,839 Speaker 2: you know, I asked Stephen Jones the question on one 925 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 2: O five three the Fan on Friday, and he was saying, yeah, 926 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 2: we're these guys are pushing Nate Thomas is pushing for 927 00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 2: you know, so I was kind of glad to hear that. 928 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,120 Speaker 2: But the biggest thing I think, Derek is the power 929 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 2: these guys when it sometimes the power is a little 930 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,240 Speaker 2: too much. And it looks like to me that Guidon 931 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 2: has a little bit of trouble when they take him inside. 932 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 2: That just taking that right foot and just stepping inside 933 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 2: to keep him from giving giving up that pressure. But 934 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 2: body position, hands, all these things that break that break 935 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 2: linemen down. They tend to happen to these tackles especially. 936 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 3: Also too, like dudes make you over compensate for what 937 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 3: you really are. You know, you're guiding. You walk out 938 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 3: there and there's Jealex Hunting, no dispector the Jalex hunt 939 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 3: He's a pro football player. He's really good at his job. 940 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:49,640 Speaker 3: But if you're a guid and you have a little 941 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 3: more confidence versus him than a guy like Brian Burns 942 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 3: who's known to whoop to whoop feed on the outside 943 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 3: as far as like slants on the inside, and you know, 944 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 3: dealing with linebackers, that's another thing Dexter Laurence simply existing 945 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 3: there could make you miss a linebacker because you're so 946 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 3: concerned about him moving around on the inside. So it's 947 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:09,799 Speaker 3: just some Booker and BB just got to get older 948 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:10,279 Speaker 3: and work on. 949 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 5: Yeah. 950 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 6: I think one thing that stood out to me was 951 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 6: the twists. They had some some issues at times with 952 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 6: picking up twist twists and. 953 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 2: They had the last yeah, that it was a problem. 954 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 2: It was a problem in training camp, and it was 955 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 2: a problem. It was a problem that it happened even 956 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 2: in Philadelphia. And that's a lot of that has to do. 957 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 2: And now we'll see with the situation at the center spot, 958 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 2: you know where where that's going to take you too, 959 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:35,799 Speaker 2: because you might be having a backup playing there. 960 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 3: Trust Brock hopping for four games, boy, and that's that's 961 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 3: hopefully that's that's all it is. 962 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,360 Speaker 6: But we are hearing reports that it's going to be 963 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 6: a substantial amount of time, uh for for Cooper BB. 964 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,440 Speaker 6: But we don't know that for sure yet. The Cowboys 965 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 6: have not given a statement yet. We'll see how that 966 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 6: plays out real quick. I did want to also mention 967 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 6: that it was a part of those pressures to Those 968 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 6: pressures came from Miles Sanders in blitz pick up. 969 00:41:58,840 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 5: It was a. 970 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 6: Tough as because he was kind of on He was 971 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 6: on the right side, I think in both both instances, 972 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 6: and there was a guy coming from the left and 973 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 6: he had to kind of get all the way over 974 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,799 Speaker 6: there and just couldn't get there in time. And the 975 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 6: guy got pressure on the on the quarterback. So there 976 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 6: was some of that too, But I just think all 977 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 6: the way around there was no I didn't see a 978 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 6: clear this. 979 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:17,360 Speaker 5: Guy was the problem. 980 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 2: It was. 981 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 6: There were problems throughout, and it was problems from everybody 982 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 6: except for Tyler Smith, which is a good thing. If 983 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 6: you're paying him that much money, you don't want problems there. 984 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,759 Speaker 6: But I think there were issues all along that front. 985 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 6: And and I'll be interested to see. I think you're 986 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 6: I agree with you watched that this may just be 987 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 6: one of those matchups where you just kind of have 988 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 6: to manage that and that's why you're happy you come 989 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 6: away with a win because you just figured out how 990 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 6: to do just enough. And quite frankly, I put a 991 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 6: lot of that on your quarterback. Your quarterback as the 992 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,440 Speaker 6: game got and went on, he started adapting to the 993 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,720 Speaker 6: pressure and he was making plays in spite of the pressure. 994 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,320 Speaker 2: There were some plays though, that some big chunk plays 995 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 2: that they made where bb was uncovered and peeled back 996 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 2: and picked up guys up. You know, he was really helpful. 997 00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 2: I mean, it looked like to me that Dak was 998 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 2: going to get hit a couple of times and Bbe 999 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,880 Speaker 2: was able to get back and pick up some stuff 1000 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 2: and help that way. So yeah, I mean, but they hey, 1001 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 2: they made plays when they had to make plays down 1002 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 2: that stretch. That was some clutch football when they needed it. 1003 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 3: Man, I say something, Yeah, this ain't about offensive line, 1004 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 3: nothing like that. I just didn't want to leave without 1005 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 3: saying that Kenny Clark, olso dig Zua, and Solomon Thomas 1006 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:20,279 Speaker 3: played very well. 1007 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 8: Les. 1008 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, we're gonna talk about that tomorrow. I'm already set 1009 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:23,320 Speaker 5: up for that. 1010 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 6: We're gonna do something call We're gonna do something called 1011 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,920 Speaker 6: Shining Stars and Falling Stars when they're about some individual 1012 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 6: players that played well and some players that didn't. But 1013 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,360 Speaker 6: I will say this, we are not ending the show 1014 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:34,800 Speaker 6: without taking our hats off. If we had on hats 1015 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:39,240 Speaker 6: to our man, Brandon Aubrey. That man is a beast. 1016 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:39,919 Speaker 5: And when I. 1017 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 6: Say he is a weapon, it's not often you can 1018 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 6: call a kick or a weapon. That man is a 1019 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:45,319 Speaker 6: weapon for this team. 1020 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,800 Speaker 2: They ran a draw play, just set up a sixty 1021 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:48,840 Speaker 2: four yard field goal. 1022 00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 6: And yeah, and by the way he jumped on the ground, 1023 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:53,759 Speaker 6: he was like, I give myself up, my kicker, come 1024 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:54,240 Speaker 6: on the field. 1025 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,080 Speaker 3: I give myself. They didn't fight to get no. 1026 00:43:58,480 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 2: No, It's like. 1027 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 6: How many times did we hear in the in the 1028 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:04,919 Speaker 6: when we were in the locker room after the game, 1029 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 6: they kept saying the same statement, and you get to 1030 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 6: the star, yeah, the kicker like that was They're like, 1031 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 6: if you get to midfield, you are money. And I 1032 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,280 Speaker 6: think that is that is a kicker that is unlike 1033 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:17,760 Speaker 6: any kicker I've ever seen the NFL from the standpoint 1034 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 6: of being a true weapon. I think the rules committee 1035 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 6: this next offseason needs to talk about the fact that 1036 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,240 Speaker 6: when you get over sixty yards, maybe should be four points, 1037 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:26,879 Speaker 6: Like maybe there should be something more. 1038 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:28,640 Speaker 2: What's that fantasy football comp I'm just. 1039 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,319 Speaker 5: Saying, like there needs to be something more. 1040 00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 6: That's not a you're giving me the same amount of 1041 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,319 Speaker 6: points for a twenty five yard kick as you do 1042 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 6: for a sixty four yard kick. 1043 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:37,360 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I want more. I got a joke. I 1044 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 3: always say that if you know it's a touchback or something, 1045 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:41,920 Speaker 3: you get the ball like the thirty five or whatever. 1046 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 3: You just need twenty five offensive yards. Yeah, you and 1047 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 3: field goal range. That's crazy. 1048 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. Not having turping in that game 1049 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 2: late might hurts you a little bit.
