1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: Right now on the Diamond Factory hotline. It is the

2
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager. Brought to you by

3
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: four Built for Texas, built for you. It is Jerry Jones.

4
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: Good morning, sir, Hey guys, good morning, and I guess

5
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,480
Speaker 1: we're going to have another fabulous weekend of watching some football.

6
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: But when you hear that low tone sounds like an

7
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 1: old lonesome train, that's me screaming in my pillow. Now

8
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: out here you you wanted to jump on, which we love,

9
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,319
Speaker 1: love you being on the fan. Gotta ask, just right

10
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 1: out the gate, what is on your mind? Well, I

11
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 1: wanted to basically speak to coach McCarthy. Mike wanted to

12
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: speak to the exciting news of dan Quinn of course

13
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: joining us for some years to come, as to joining

14
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,320
Speaker 1: us as our coordinator. And what I wanted to clear

15
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: up was this was a competitive situation in my view,

16
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: Mike was I mean that dan Quinn was really being

17
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: pursued as a potential head coach. And I've had two

18
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: other occasions in my career where a coach a coordinator

19
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,479
Speaker 1: was offered a head coaching job and I got them

20
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: not to accept it. One was with Sean Payton, and

21
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: he was offered the job but the Raiders. When Parcels

22
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,559
Speaker 1: was a head coach, I asked him to not take

23
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: it and stay coordinating and see what happens with the

24
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: future here the Cowboys. And then I asked Jason Garrett

25
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: to do the same thing, and he passed on a

26
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: head coaching job as well to stay here and be

27
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: a part of the future of the Cowboys. And so

28
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: I'd experienced seeing coaches turned down a head job for

29
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: our situation, and so I really was trying hard. Meeting

30
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: with Dan Quinn Mike account This is the thing I

31
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: want to clear up. Mike was very involved in this

32
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: process and very involved in trying to give us every

33
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: chance to keep Dan Quinn. And there's no question it

34
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 1: was a competitive situation, and I couldn't really get out

35
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: and speak to it publicly because I didn't want to

36
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: push teams toward them and I wanted to keeping for

37
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 1: ourselves and Dan. And that's what ended up happening. Mike

38
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 1: and I worked together joint effort. That's what it's going

39
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: to take. This year. We did some things that I'm

40
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: really proud of with our coaching staff. We did some

41
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: things I'm proud of with our team. We didn't do

42
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 1: a lot of things that we need to do to

43
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 1: not be sitting here out of the playoffs next year.

44
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: And we're all committed to do it. But the thing

45
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 1: I want to clear up is that the idea of

46
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: mine being twisting and the wind just wasn't the case

47
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 1: at all. We were sitting there trying to keep dan

48
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: quinn and trying to maintain continuity of our coaching staff.

49
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: Did you have to reassure Mike McCarthy after Sean Payton

50
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 1: quit that he's going to be the head coach of

51
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys? No? I did not. I did not

52
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: because we're sitting here building together our future. No, but

53
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: I did. He's well aware of her relationship and long

54
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: term friendship with Peyton and Sean, and I haven't talked

55
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: to Sean, and not a part of any of the

56
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: dialogue or any of the decision making rotied to him

57
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: leaving New Orleans. But my point is we just been't

58
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: really got her head her head down and getting this

59
00:03:55,280 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: staff in the shape, particularly at the top the coordinator level,

60
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: and whether it be the special teams or whether it

61
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: be offense defense. And frankly, we've still kind of in

62
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: that area right now regarding Kellen until we see whether

63
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: that settles there. Je. I'll get back to Kellen in

64
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: just a second. But are you saying that the dan

65
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: Quinn was offered a head coaching job somewhere else and

66
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: you talked him into being staying and being a coordinator.

67
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: I believe that very much. I believe that very much.

68
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 1: I'm I know this. He is staying and being our

69
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: coordinator for years to come, and so I know that

70
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: he was the most he was the busiest coordinator out

71
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 1: here being interviewed for jobs. And yes, I would say

72
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: that specifically, it's a real compliment to Mike. It's a

73
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: compliment to us, it's compliment to the organization. He's good

74
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: jobs here with Cowboys. Chance you can buy chance. Tell

75
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: us what job that might have been that he might

76
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: have turned down? Oh no, no, And by the way,

77
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,479
Speaker 1: you will never know. The only person that would know,

78
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 1: like in our particular case, the only one with Cowboys,

79
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: if you're gonna get a job here that would know

80
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: really whether or not he was gonna get it if

81
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: he had stayed available would be me. I'm the only

82
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 1: one that would know that because we don't have a

83
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 1: vote or a meeting that we then throw the hammer

84
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 1: down and say done. That's not the way it works. Now,

85
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: along those lines, you said there is not a point

86
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 1: where Mike McCarthy was twisting in the wind or anything

87
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 1: like that. Do you think you had him twisted? Not you,

88
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 1: but our media did. And I didn't want to get

89
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 1: involved publicly because I was we were in a highly

90
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: competitive situation. Do you think anyone could look like that

91
00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: I overly other than was the obvious. I didn't want

92
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 1: to make it look like so they did be that

93
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: much more interesting to another club. I was fighting to

94
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 1: keep him for our coordinator, not him go be a

95
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 1: head coach. And when you talk about the media, I

96
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 1: actually think our show might have played a part in that,

97
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 1: specifically your interview on this show last week. Do you

98
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: think that led to any of the speculation about Mike

99
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: McCarthy's job status. They do. Those are my public have

100
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: been my public sentiments, and the sentiment was frustration, swear.

101
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: Sentiment was just so disappointed that we're not playing. But

102
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,359
Speaker 1: we did some good things last year too, and we

103
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 1: want to build on that and we can. That's the point.

104
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: And what I said on the show and I've seen

105
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: it written several times, is that I've got everybody under

106
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: contract that I won't under contract. It's just a question

107
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: of whether, under the rules, are going to be able

108
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: to get out of the contract. And so we went

109
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: out and did something about and reinforced at the most

110
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: critical level there. Yeah, but it was never an issue

111
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: with me, with Mike being the head coach. You've never

112
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: heard that from me, Jerry. You've taken the fact that

113
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: I was sitting there. Ben Coy, you've taken that and

114
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: interpreted not you, but it was taken as though I

115
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: were somehow wishy washy. Just because you're frustrated doesn't mean

116
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:30,239
Speaker 1: that somebody necessarily is going to lose a job. Jerry.

117
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: You mentioned Sean Payton and Jason Garrett as two guys

118
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: that you said, Am I going to let them go elsewhere?

119
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: I want to keep them around a lot of people

120
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 1: are speculating that there's because dan Quinn's back, there's double

121
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: pressure on McCarthy because of the head coaching experience. Do

122
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: you look at it that way, don't look at it

123
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: the opposite way, And let me assure you Mike looks

124
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: at it differently. Mike did everything that he could do

125
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: to help us get and keep and extend Dan Quinn.

126
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: He did everything he could do. He's not into worrying

127
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: about that. He's the head coach. We worked in Unison,

128
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: worked great together and we basically were just doing our

129
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: doing our jobs. Mike actually said correct, and it was

130
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: just kind of maybe skipped over and he basically said,

131
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: Jerry and I talk job status. I'm fine. He said

132
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: that what you didn't hear wasn't annoucement, wasn't necessary. Man.

133
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: I'm we're in a competitive situation for key personnel, key

134
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: coaches here that I didn't want to be able here

135
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: pushing and talking about how good they were, how good

136
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,199
Speaker 1: they weren't where we are. All that's read like a

137
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: fine tooth cone with other your competition, that's other teams

138
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: trying to get you sat Jerry. When it comes to

139
00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy and he's an offensive coach, he talked about

140
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore and how he did not want to get

141
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: in his way. I know there's a lot to that

142
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: just one sentence there, but do you hope that Mike McCarthy,

143
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 1: if the team is struggling offensively next year, can step

144
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 1: in and help out Kellen Moore in the offense more

145
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: no question that we're going to attempt hard and use

146
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: everything that Mike has got in his background experience to

147
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: help us on every part of this football team. And

148
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: obviously we didn't get past the first round and we

149
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: need to address a lot of areas and we will.

150
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: But there are a lot of areas we did some

151
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 1: good things here and we can do some work in

152
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: those areas too. But Mike's a football coach and he's

153
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 1: got really one of the greatest career records you can

154
00:09:55,040 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 1: look at, and working with him is great, and he's intense,

155
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: and we've got we've got a big job. And so

156
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: to answer your question, heck, yeah, he'll be in bobbed

157
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: and the minutiore. He'll be in bobbed in every way

158
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 1: we can to improve any part of our team. And

159
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: I say that deliberately because he is the coach and

160
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: that's what he'd do. Talk with Jerry Jones right here

161
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: on one O five through the Fan. I love that

162
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 1: phrasing right there. I know you guys, I know you

163
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: said earlier you're waiting to find out about Kellen Moore.

164
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: I know he's got a second interview with the Dolphins

165
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: and everything like that. Do you get a sense along

166
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 1: the process do other teams reach out to you and

167
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: tell you what direction they might be going? Do you

168
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 1: believe Kellen Moore will be back with this team next year? Okay,

169
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: you ask about three questions. I did, and that's all right.

170
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: That's all right. I get a sense they do not

171
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 1: reach out and I believe he'll be back next year.

172
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: Is that what you want? Yes? The um, I'm really

173
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: curious about this, Jerry, and I think a lot of

174
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: people are too. Um. We're what's your relationship with with

175
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: Sean Payton like versus like maybe any other coaches out there?

176
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: If you want to kind of clear that up a

177
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 1: little bit too, because a lot of people have some

178
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: thoughts on on that. And were you surprised that Sean

179
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: quit this year? Again? H I will address the last

180
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 1: question about surprise. That's not Ah, that's not something that

181
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: uh that I would go to. Sean is uh easy

182
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: and uh we're really pleasant to be around. Uh. He

183
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 1: does things that really help ball teams and help motivate players.

184
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:05,959
Speaker 1: He's got the right he's got it. There's a great

185
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: story about when New Orleans beat US. There's a rule

186
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: against have an alcohol on a team plane. And so

187
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: when New Orleans beat us one year when Bill was

188
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:21,439
Speaker 1: coaching Sean's first win after joining the New Orleans staff,

189
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: and they have to have a lot of new alcohol

190
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: beer on board. And I'm winking, and they have to

191
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 1: have a lot of it. Well, the trip from here

192
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: to New Orleans is probably what thirty five forty minutes. Well,

193
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: he said, after that win, we'll just stay in there

194
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: until we've consumed our beer. So they flew up around

195
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: in Denver to go home the New Orleans trade and

196
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 1: they're from here to New Orleans so that they could

197
00:12:54,200 --> 00:13:02,959
Speaker 1: celebrate that kind of natural instinctive I call leadership or

198
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: spontaneous or type approach to life as approached to his team,

199
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: as approached to his associates, as a real asset to him.

200
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: And he makes it, uh, he makes it the drudgery

201
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: of the game, which is physical, and boy, you need

202
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 1: some you need some likeness from time to time in there,

203
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: and to handle the rigors of a football team a

204
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: season or sometimes even a game. He knows how to.

205
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: He knows how to punch those buttons, Jerry with with

206
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: him being out there, the world looks at that and goes, hey,

207
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: that's you know, that's a guy that Jerry does love.

208
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to necessarily talk about that.

209
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:52,439
Speaker 1: But how important and does this change the what the Cowboys,

210
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: what this coaching staff needs to do this season as

211
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: far as do they need to win a certain amount

212
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 1: of games? Do they got to get to a certain place?

213
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 1: What does that change? Kind of knowing that there's a

214
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: guy out there and then then this coaching staff has

215
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: a job they got to accomplish. Is there more pressure

216
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 1: at all? Not at all? And the rationale, I mean everybody,

217
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,439
Speaker 1: I think a lot of Sean, but there's going to

218
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: be somebody other than Sean when the Super Bowl this year,

219
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: and if he doesn't coach, would be somebody other than

220
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 1: Sean win the super Bowl next year. My point is,

221
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: you win super Bowls and people win super Bowls. There's nobody,

222
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: no one person indispensable as far as winning super Bowls.

223
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: Control talk with Jerry Jones right here on one oh

224
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 1: five three the Fan. You talk about how the obviously

225
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: unfortunately the Cowboys didn't get to where we all hoped

226
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: they would be. Is a lot of that falls on

227
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: fair or unfair from the discussion standpoint on the quarterback.

228
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 1: I'm curious your thoughts about Dak's playing the second half

229
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: of the season and do you think he has to

230
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: play better for this team to ever get past the

231
00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 1: wild card round. Well, I Dak has played at bowl

232
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: a lot that can win super Bowls, that can take

233
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 1: a team to a super Bowl and win a super Bowl.

234
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 1: There's no laddice. Once you've seen them do it, you

235
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: know they can do it. It's there, and so you've

236
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: got to be real careful if for whatever game or

237
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: whatever period of time, it's not there, You've got to

238
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: be careful of lumping that into well, he can't do it. Again.

239
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 1: There's some great quarterbacks in this league today, and you're

240
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 1: only going to have one of them get the job done,

241
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: only one, and so better be careful throwing all those

242
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 1: others out to do and saying they just can't win one.

243
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 1: That's just not the way it works. I'm bid trite,

244
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: I'm excited. It's really right there. At the most reason

245
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 1: I'm positive about going forward next year and the next

246
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: year and the next year, about us having a chance

247
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 1: to compete for the Super Bowl. He's probably at the

248
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: very top of the list of why I'm excited about it,

249
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott Jerry. Yesterday, Michael Irving on the station said

250
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 1: that you lack patience when you want something. I know

251
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 1: you want the super Bowl champ championship. What do you

252
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: want on this team right now? Lacking your patience? Well,

253
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: you know that's Michael knows me as well as anybody

254
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: there is, and he's right. I want to act nervous.

255
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: I used to ask him when he got in trouble less, say,

256
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: got in a bad spot and was him den in

257
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: a back alley. Why does he laugh? Why does he laugh?

258
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: And he said, the laughing covers up my fear. It

259
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: covers up my fear. Well, impatient, those type of characteristics

260
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 1: in my way, as far as my opinion of myself,

261
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 1: it is covering up of what I'm feeling. And so

262
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 1: the impatience is frustration. Now, what you gotta do is

263
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 1: make sure that that doesn't get over into a irrational decision.

264
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 1: And I've made those two one time I made one.

265
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 1: I'm teasing I was gonna say that, Jimmy Jerry, I uh,

266
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: there were some there were some people out there that

267
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 1: that did suggest that Friday when you hopped on with

268
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 1: Mike and I that you faked being angry. What would

269
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 1: you like to say to anybody that that felt that

270
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: way about it? And how long did it really take

271
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 1: you to calm down from from the stress of a

272
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 1: week of losing in the playoffs? Well, uh, I really

273
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: don't know how to respond to faking to be angry. Uh.

274
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: I think that I like I've been told that I'm

275
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: easy to read and wear it out on the cup.

276
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 1: But it's too much high and me in this conversation already.

277
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 1: But the point is I am frustrated. I'm still frustrated.

278
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 1: I want to carry I want to if the wound

279
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: is open, I want to rub salt in him. I

280
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 1: wanted to hurt, and I'm being dramatic here, but this hurt,

281
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 1: and I want to do everything we can to remind

282
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: us continually how bad it hurt to have to go

283
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 1: home left two weekends ago. This hurt. We had a

284
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: good team. But I'm not trying to be dramatic. It's

285
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: I know this. It sure helped me make the decisions

286
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: I made yesterday to keep Dad Quinn. Yeah, that certainly

287
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: does help. Jerry. I wanted to kind of get a

288
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 1: little timeline then Kellen is the next thing that you

289
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: have to do to confirm that he's going to be back.

290
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: I know Miami would like to have him. What other?

291
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 1: What other decisions You're you kind of looking at down

292
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: the road here, like, what other? What's the next phase?

293
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,120
Speaker 1: Do you start looking at players after that or what? Well?

294
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 1: First of all, I know you will appreciate when I

295
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 1: tell you I'm not going to come in because it's

296
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 1: a competitive situation. He literally is competitive regarding Kelly. That's it.

297
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: And just like I've said, I wasn't able to discuss

298
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 1: our coaches here two weeks ago because it was not

299
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 1: in our best interest. I was going to push the

300
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: wrong button and go against us here. And so from

301
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 1: that standpoint, now, what are we doing to improve and

302
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,359
Speaker 1: doing anything and everything we can off season wise? We

303
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:47,919
Speaker 1: got to Senior Bowl next week. We're certainly already looking at,

304
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 1: say we're signing. There's certain types of players that you

305
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: can make deals with. Now we're right in the middle

306
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 1: of it. And the switch had a funk on it

307
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 1: and a depressed part of it the first few days.

308
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 1: But here it is two weeks later. It's time to

309
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: get your head out of the bucket and get on

310
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: here and start doing the right things. This was a

311
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 1: absolute big time happening for us yesterday to get dan

312
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 1: Quinn to stay here and be our coordinator. And I'm

313
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 1: exciting that. I say, you start with days of little

314
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: victories to build upon a better feeling. Well, this started

315
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: the day with a huge victory for us to be

316
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,400
Speaker 1: able to maintain him and the continuity involve with our

317
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: team is in my mind worth moving mountains far. And

318
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 1: I think we did well. We already have a promo

319
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 1: out you can hear all of our excitement about getting

320
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,919
Speaker 1: dan Quinn back as well, so we're all with you.

321
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 1: We want to know this is still a huge weekend

322
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 1: for football. Who are you picking or who are you

323
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: rooting for this weekend? And then I got to ask

324
00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 1: when are we going to get back in this week

325
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 1: into football? Boy? Well, the last one, of course is

326
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: we all know. I don't know, but we all know.

327
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: If I'll just point to the main thing we're talking about.

328
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,479
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get back there hello Day and Quinn,

329
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 1: And so that tip starts yesterday to get that. There

330
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: is such a romance to me for Los Angeles Rams

331
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: to be sitting there playing this playoff game, championship game

332
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 1: in that new stadium, and then to turn around and

333
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 1: potentially have if they should win it, and have the

334
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 1: result of playing the Super Bowl there. They are about

335
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: one mile from the little house that my parents lived

336
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 1: when I was born. I was born right there, and

337
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: I got a lot of relatives out there, and so

338
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 1: there is so much of me that would like to

339
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 1: see that fairy tale here. It is really the first

340
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: real big year that they because of the COVID thing,

341
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: to be operating in that new stadium. We've got our

342
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 1: NFL headquarters out there. I mean not headquarters, but our

343
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 1: media headquarters out there. That just looks like rather than

344
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: that Hollywood sign, it used to be on that mountain

345
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:31,199
Speaker 1: kind of broken down, and that was the the city

346
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 1: of entertainment for the world. Well, now that in the

347
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 1: picture is that beautiful new stadium in NFL, and I'm

348
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: excited about that. So I'm kind of looking for them.

349
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: Appreciate the time very much, good sir, and anything else, yeah,

350
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:50,040

351
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: what'd you think about the stock markets? Man? Stock markets crazy?

352
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: As you're there and talk about all of it. Hey,
