Players Lounge 51 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: brought to you by Hotels dot Com Game Week, Los Angeles. 52 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: Rams Here, Barry, My big concern is your area of expertise, 53 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,959 Speaker 1: and that's the Cowboys secondary. They are not one hundred percent. 54 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones did say today, I want to find three 55 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,679 Speaker 1: the fan that he expected Xavier Woods to be there. 56 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: Of Jordan Lewis, we don't know. Mike. Milt Nolan was 57 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: kind of He didn't give us much. McCarthy never gives 58 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: us anything, but I do want to play. This is 59 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: some sound from Mike Nolan yesterday. The Cowboys defensive coordinator, 60 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: and here he is talking about his injuries to the 61 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: secondary and what he's comfortable with going into this game. 62 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: Week from the Rams, here's Mike Nolan. Well, there's still 63 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: some questions unanswered today, but they'll be answered by the 64 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: end of the week. But I believe we'll get we'll 65 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: get it. You know, we'll get a few of the 66 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: guys back. But it has been a little bit of 67 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: a struggle along the way we had you know, has 68 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: had to move some guys around. But I think in 69 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: the end it actually I'll help us because we had 70 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: an opportunity to play some guys at some different positions 71 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: that we were hoping to when we started out, but 72 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: not really knowing if we'd be given the chance, and 73 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: as it turned out, we were. But hum again, as 74 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: the week goes along, we'll we'll make some decisions as 75 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: far as you know, who's going to actually line up 76 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: where when the game begins. Oh okay, so Church, take 77 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: me through the coach speak of what Mike Nolan said. 78 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: Break that down for me in terms of what we 79 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: should expect and how healthier guys right now in your opinion, well, well, 80 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: in my opinion from hearing coach talk right there. It's 81 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: basically he's saying that what they have in their secondary 82 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: is a couple of soft soft injury tissue injuries. It 83 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: doesn't seem like it's a big catastrophic injuries that will 84 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: have these guys out for a long period of time. 85 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,239 Speaker 1: But what he is saying is that this first game 86 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: there might be some guys in positions that you aren't 87 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: a customly seeing. I mean, they drafted Robinson as a 88 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 1: corner and he might mess around and play safety at 89 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: or the safety this Sunday. So he's saying that there's 90 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: a couple of injuries here and there, but with the 91 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 1: flex they have in their secondary, a lot of those 92 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 1: guys can play multiple positions safety, corner and nickel. That 93 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: they'll be able. They'll be able to work out just fine, 94 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: I believe. But the concern for me is if they 95 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: do not get Jordan Lewis back in his line up. 96 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: I know we have Anthony Brown in there, but I 97 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: just think Jordan Lewis is their best guy in the 98 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: secondary right now. He's a short tackler at that nickel, 99 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: he's great in the run support, and he can blitz 100 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,039 Speaker 1: as well, and his greatest attribute is getting the football 101 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: and taking the ball away. So I'm kind of worried 102 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 1: about that if he's not able to play this Sunday. 103 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: But from the sounds of it, it sounds like he 104 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: could be a questionable decision going into it. Hopefully he's 105 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: able to go because this secondary will need him going forward. 106 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 1: But Craig, did we have you back? Baby? I sure 107 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: hope so. Can y'all hear me? Yeah, we can hear you? Well? Yeah, Well, 108 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: just to pick it back off of what Church said, 109 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 1: that Jordan Lewis injury to me is a really big 110 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: issue because if I think back to last year, I 111 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: think one of his best games was against the Rams. 112 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: I think he ran around the field and covered pretty 113 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: much anybody that was in that slot area and made 114 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,239 Speaker 1: some big plays. And they will need him this game 115 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: for that. And like Church said, we'll be seeing some 116 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: guys play some positions that they hadn't played before, but 117 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: putting faith in the defensive coordinator to call some plays 118 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: that will still have those guys doing the things that 119 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: they normally do, right, so you'll call it cover one 120 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: and have a guy still covering, versus having a cornerback 121 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: coming down and trying to feel like A, A, B 122 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: or C gaps, So you know, just putting trust in 123 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: him and hoping that he has a true plan if 124 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: he has to go to some guys that aren't used 125 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: to plan safety are playing corner and he has some 126 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: in the works for them to be successful. Okay, just 127 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,799 Speaker 1: based on what we've seen so far, who guards Robert Woods, 128 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: who's checking Robert Woods, who's checking Cooper Cup, And who's 129 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: checking the rookie bad Jefferson who they're very high on 130 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: out in Los Angeles. For me, I mean, if Jordan 131 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: Lewis is healthy, I'm putting him on Cooper Cup in 132 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: the slot, because Cooper Cup, I mean that's where he 133 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: did a lot of his damage last year was in 134 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: the slot, being able to take advantage of nickels or 135 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: safeties or linebackers in zone. So I'm putting Jordan Lewis 136 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: on Cooper Cup, the receiver, the rookie see you're talking 137 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: about out there, and who the Rams are very high on. 138 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: If Tabon Dins cracks this starting lineup, I'm throwing him 139 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: on him all day. I mean, Tabon dis is long, 140 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: he can run with anybody. He's great, impressed a man 141 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: and man coverage. So if I'm if I'm putting anybody 142 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: on him, I'm putting him on there and say, rookie, 143 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: have a nice day. Lock him down. The rest of 144 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: the rest of the guys I think can be Robert 145 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: Woods and they're tight end Higbee I think can be 146 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: easily locked down. So those two are the main ones 147 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: that concern me. But I think we have the talent 148 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: and the secondary to be able to contain all of that. Oh, 149 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: I gotta go opposite of you on that one, man, 150 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: I got okay, I go. I gotta put our best 151 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: corner player on Robert Woods. And this is specifically because 152 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: I don't believe in Jared Golf to be able to 153 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: go through his reads and get to the third receiver. 154 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: So if you lock down Robert Woods, you take away 155 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup. He's going to have a hard time getting 156 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: a third read. Especially with what we expect to see 157 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: from our defensive line up this year, he should not 158 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: have enough time to get to the third read. Lockdown 159 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: the first two. And what we've seen from Jared Golf 160 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: is he authority or he would take a set, and 161 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: that is exactly what we need for this game. Let 162 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: me ask you, guys, this is former players. Do you 163 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: take any account of what happened last year when these 164 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: two teams played out of Jerry World December fifteenth, it 165 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: was a forty four twenty one Cowboy drubbing of the Ramps, Dan, 166 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: absolutely not. The only thing that you take into accounts 167 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: who the quarterback is, the game is the game, and 168 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 1: last year is last year, and even from this season 169 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: game two, whoever you played for the division in the 170 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: first game, they will not be the same team in 171 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 1: the second game. So you can barely even look to 172 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: what happened within your division. So you definitely can't look 173 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 1: to what happened last year. These teams will be totally different. 174 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: They might come in with totally different games, totally different personnel, 175 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: So I wouldn't bank on any of that. For me, 176 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: I gotta disagree with you a little bit there, Danny. 177 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: I think this this going from last year. They blew 178 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: this team out. I forget what you said, the score 179 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: was forty two to something, but they blew this team out. 180 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: And I think that's why I think this is a 181 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 1: must win for this Cowboys organization. I mean, you got 182 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: a new coaching staff coming in, you got all this 183 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: hyped up talent, coming in on offense, on defense, you 184 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: added a couple of guy pieces here and there. So 185 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: I think this is a must win for the confidence boosts. Now, 186 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: if you go out there and you lose against an 187 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: LA team that lost Gurley had offensive line troubles, I mean, 188 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: they got two receivers out there, Cup and Robert Woods, 189 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: but none of those guys are blowing off the top 190 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: of your defense. Now, if you go out there and 191 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: lose that game, I think that's an extreme stream confidence 192 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: deflator for the season coming up. So I just think 193 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: this is a must win, which I do think they'll 194 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: blow this team out, by the way. I think it's 195 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: a must win. But do you think that they can 196 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: look at what they were able to accomplish last year 197 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: and kind of put some work into that this year 198 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: and say, since we blew them out last year, we 199 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 1: probably we probably should do the same thing this year now, 200 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: just because you know, you mean, they're coming in with 201 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: a totally different new scheme, new coaches and stuff. So 202 00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: I guess they can't really build upon what they did 203 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: last year. But I know for sure they better not 204 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: go out there and lose on Sunday night today. I 205 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: would say if that's the case. You know, whenever we 206 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: played the Jests, they could just look back and be 207 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: like liquid we could beat the Cowboy because we put 208 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: the work in on them last year or the year 209 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: whatever should we played in previous That's true. That's true. 210 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: So Church that final was forty four twenty one. I 211 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: went back and just checking the stats here, Todd Gurley 212 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: had eleven carries for just twenty yards in that game. 213 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: Tyler Hickbee the tight end at twelve catches one hundred 214 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: and eleven yards in the game. Brandon Cooks four catches 215 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: forty six yards, Cooper Cup six sketches forty one yards, 216 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: and Robert Woods had four catches for seventeen yards in 217 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: that football game. So the defense did pretty well. Dak 218 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: Prescott in that game with two touchdown passes, Tony Pollard 219 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: and Zeke both went over one hundred yards. Tony one 220 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: thirty one on the ground and a touchdown on twelve carries. 221 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: Zeke with twenty four carries one hundred seventeen yards and 222 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: two touchdown. And I bring this up from this standpoint. 223 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 1: Remember how La dragged the Cowboys in the playoffs and 224 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: they had two one hundred yards and I felt like 225 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: they hadn't forgot it and that game had happened you 226 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: actually within that calendar year out of the LA College 227 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: sum and it was payback for the Cowboys. So that's 228 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: why I just kind of wonder, is there any way 229 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 1: we could kind of look at is there any flow 230 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: you carry over into this game from from last year, 231 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 1: just knowing the Cowboys had not forgotten what happened to 232 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: them in the playoffs. My pink, let me tell you something. 233 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: The Rounds were not playing well last season, and the 234 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: Cowboys actually weren't playing well either. So I just don't 235 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: see that being the case, especially especially Game one. I 236 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: think this is this is a whole new, whole new thing. 237 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: Everybody's watched all that the way, and we'll get to 238 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: see what these two teams are week one. I don't 239 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: think it'll be anything like it was last year. And 240 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: I really don't think that it'll be payback or anything 241 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: like that. They both teams know they didn't play well 242 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: last year and they're looking for a new first start, 243 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: all right, So let's stay with the Cowboys secondary here. 244 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: So the fact that they have injuries going on, the 245 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: Cowboys decided to go bring back a familiar face. That's 246 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: Brandon Car. Once signed a fifty million dollar contract with 247 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, and he's after leaving the Cowboys, they let 248 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: him go. He went to Baltimore and he's had a 249 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: very good career and it had a good career up 250 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: there in Baltimore, but nobody picked him up. He's on 251 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: their practice squad. Now here's Mike Nolan talking about the 252 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: benefits and what he likes about having Brandon car in 253 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: the Cowboy organization. Well, obviously he's an experienced player. He's 254 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: played both at the corner for a long time, but 255 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: also at safety when he was at Baltimore, So he's 256 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: got some versatility. You know, we're trying to improve our 257 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: depth on the back end and and I think he 258 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: adds to that depth. So you know, like I said, 259 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: his experience in versatility would be the two things I 260 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: liked the most. Church. So your thoughts, Brandon Car. He's here. 261 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: A lot of Cowboy fans upset, a lot of Cowboy fans. 262 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: I'm saying they want Earl Thomas, but you've got Brandon. Look, 263 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: I mean, you know Cowboys fans, I mean they get 264 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 1: upset about a lot of things, but this is the 265 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 1: one that they shouldn't be upset about. This is a 266 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: guy that's coming in and he's the ultimate professional. And 267 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 1: I'm talking about Brandon Carr. I mean this guy, he 268 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,679 Speaker 1: hasn't he hasn't missed a game since he entered the league. 269 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: This guy is durable, and he's on and off the field. 270 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: He's the ultimate professional. He goes out there and does 271 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: what he has to do. He's not this you know, 272 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: rad Rod screaming all over the type place type leader. 273 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,719 Speaker 1: He's a lead back, example type guy. And this is 274 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: a young secondary that can use that type of leadership 275 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: going into each and every game. He can show you 276 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 1: how to prepare for games. He can show you how 277 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: to be a professional on and off all the off 278 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: the field. So I think this is an extremely good 279 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: pickup for the Cowboys. He's versatile, like they said, he 280 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: can play safety and he can play corner and he's 281 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: played nickel in Baltimore, so he can do all those things. 282 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: He's durable, and I just think this is an excellent 283 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: pickup by the Cowboys. Yeah, same here, same here. I 284 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: just um, I know a lot of people are like 285 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,599 Speaker 1: falling into the trap and thinking that he's going to 286 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: be you know, the like a strictly a safety and 287 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 1: just listening to the coach talk right there, I think 288 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,839 Speaker 1: that they're looking at him as owner and they're happy 289 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: that he would be able to play safety as well, 290 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: which kind of puts up a little red flag for 291 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: me that you know, they believe that they need a 292 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 1: little corner help, especially with these soft tissue injuries. But 293 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: I've seen Brandon Carr play. I saw him play last year, 294 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: I saw him play the year before. He still has 295 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,079 Speaker 1: a lot of the tank, and I wouldn't be surprised 296 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: if he came in it took one of those starting 297 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: cornerback jobs sometime throughout the season. I just I would 298 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: not be surprised. I wouldn't be surprised either. I mean 299 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: the way he goes about his business and just his technique, 300 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: it's flawless. So I mean, he might not be the 301 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: fastest four two corner in the world, but his technique 302 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: allows him to stay on top of receivers by jamming 303 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 1: him at the line. I mean, he knows all the 304 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: tricks of the trade. So, like you said, d Mac, 305 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if he came in here and 306 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 1: cracked and started line up eventually during this season, Brandon 307 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: Carr did a lot of winning when he was up 308 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: there at Baltiward. Now there is another player who's no 309 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: longer with the Ravens that the Cowboys, especially Cowboy fans, 310 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: have had interest in. We won't let you hear what 311 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator had to say about Earl Thomas. I'll 312 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: tell you what Jerry Jones had to say about Earl 313 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: Thomas day and also how Jerry Jones says the Mike 314 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: McCarthy team will be different than a Jason Garrett led 315 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys team.

Now, 371 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 1: Brandon cars In Cowboy fans are mad. All they want 372 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: to talk about is look at that catch you had 373 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: against Odell Beckham Junior. They want Earl Thomas. I asked 374 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: Mike Nolan about Earl Thomas yesterday and listen to the 375 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 1: response from the defensive coordinate. I have not had any 376 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: conversations with Jerry or any of them about it. You know, 377 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: when it becomes serious and then maybe there'd be a conversation, 378 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: But from as far is including me, thus far, I 379 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: have not. Okay, so he's not. He's sitting here saying 380 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 1: I hadn't talked to anybody all. Now. It seems to 381 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: me if Mike Nolan was really concerned about Hey, man, 382 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,479 Speaker 1: I got issues with this defense back Yakee bro We're 383 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 1: bringing a Pro Bowl guy. Man. Let me go do that. 384 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: He's not saying that at all. So Church, we had 385 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones today not totally shoot it down, but he's 386 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: not sitting up here waving the flag for Earl Thomas either. 387 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 1: Then we had Isaiah standback earlier on one of our 388 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 1: Cup podcasts, former Cowboys say he expects Earl Thomas to 389 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 1: be a cowboy on Monday. So I'm gonna start with you, Danny, 390 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: where is this Earl Thomas thing in your mind? I'm 391 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: just confused on you know, if he's gonna pick up 392 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: Earl Thomas, why did not pick him up this Monday? 393 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I don't get that. I don't 394 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 1: get that take. But you know whatever, you have to 395 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: guarantee a salady, that's why. Because you don't have to 396 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: guarantee the same if he's on the roster week one, 397 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: you gotta guarantee the whole, the whole salade for the 398 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: rest of the year. About I still don't see it happen. 399 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: You picked up a Brandon Car, what you gonna do 400 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: the same thing? Pick up a player, but cars on 401 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 1: the practice squad. So if he doesn't play week one, 402 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: then then he's okay. So so we Brandon cars on 403 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: the practice. He's not on the active roster yet. Let 404 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: me tell you this, Earl Thomas will not be a 405 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: Cowboy on Monday. That is almost a guarantee for me. 406 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 1: And number and number and number two and number two. 407 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 1: I just don't think it's a fit. And I think 408 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones has been the showman that he always is. 409 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: He said he wouldn't take it off the table. I 410 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 1: think this type of stuff, you know, he loves it. 411 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: He thrives off this. So of course he's not gonna 412 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: let anybody know that he doesn't want or al he does. 413 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 1: He wants that to be out there. He wants it 414 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: always to be a possibility because the fans are going 415 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: to continue talking about the Cowboys and Earl Thomas church. 416 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, Earl Thomas will not be a Dallas Cowboy 417 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 1: this season. I don't believe that at all. But for me, 418 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 1: what's more concerning is, I mean both of these coaches. 419 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 1: You got the head coach and you got the defensive 420 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: coordinator saying, you know, basically we're not privy to these conversations. 421 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: I mean the head coach was talking about how you know, hey, 422 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: they I haven't been brought in on this conversation yet, 423 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: so I don't know anything about Earl Thomas. Then you 424 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: got the Mike Nolan over here saying basically the same thing, saying, hey, 425 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: I haven't been you know, included in any of those talks, 426 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: so I'm not sure what's going on with there. So, 427 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: you know, I just feel like it's kind of a 428 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, y'all see the same thing I'm seeing. 429 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: It's just it's it's kind of discerning to me that, 430 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: you know, these coaches are saying, you know, hey, we're 431 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: not privy to those conversations. You're the head coach of 432 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: the football team, you're the defensive coordinator. You think you 433 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: would have more input on that. But I mean that's 434 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: just me Church. I honestly, I honestly don't think anybody 435 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,719 Speaker 1: in the building that is talking about Earl Thomas. They 436 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 1: just trying not to give it away that they that 437 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: they that you know, they want to keep it up 438 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,959 Speaker 1: with Jerry and keep that thing out there, that mystery 439 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: out there. But I don't think anybody is talking about Jared, 440 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,640 Speaker 1: I mean, Earl Thomas. I don't think they're missing out 441 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: on any conversation, especially being a news coaching staff. They 442 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: don't want to start their type of culture. I hope not. 443 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 1: So what you're saying, So are you saying that Earl? 444 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: Are you saying that Earl? The journey is just trying 445 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: to keep this Earl talk alive, to keep people interested 446 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: in the Cowboys and basically keep the Cowboys in people's mouth? 447 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,360 Speaker 1: Is okay? All right? I like that. Take what has 448 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: when hasn't he done that? I mean, he is the 449 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: ultimate business man, So I like that. I like it. 450 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: Is this like the desk conversation when he sat it 451 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: there and said that the combine he's still dreamed in 452 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: the shower about death and everybody ran exactly, exactly, never 453 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 1: did anything with this nothing. How about we've been talking 454 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 1: about Earl Thomas, Earl Thomas coming to the Cowboys since 455 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: last year. We got this conversation has been going on 456 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: for a long time, and this is exactly what he 457 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 1: wants and it makes sense. I mean, yes, you want 458 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: your your team to be talked about more than any 459 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 1: of the team, and he accomplishes that every season, I mean, 460 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: and he's successful at it. He is. All right, So 461 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 1: let me move on to this. Mary Jones's radio show 462 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 1: today was asked, what's gonna be the difference and what's 463 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: what's gonna be the different deal? You see about Mike 464 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 1: McCarthy and and the way he coaches the team, and 465 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: he says that the Cowboys will be less predictable. Your thoughts, gentlemen, 466 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: go ahead, Danny. Let's yeah, let me tell you something 467 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: less predictable as in what this is. As far as 468 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,679 Speaker 1: I know, they built this team when Jason Garrett was 469 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: here to be a running team, one of those teams 470 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,479 Speaker 1: that they line up and when the defense lines up, 471 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 1: they know what, you're gonna run power, you're gonna run zone, 472 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: and you're gonna run counter. They built this team to 473 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,640 Speaker 1: be predictable, know that you was gonna run it down 474 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: their throat and run it down they throat. And when 475 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: when when the Cowboys were doing that, it was oh yeah, 476 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 1: a great job. No no, no, Then we start seeing 477 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 1: some injuries on the old line and you weren't able 478 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: to get that running game started, so you couldn't really 479 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: get your play action going. And then all of a sudden, 480 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: it was like, now we're too predictable. But when we 481 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: were predictable and running it down people strow Zeke twenty 482 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 1: times here, the marcol murder twenty times there. Everything was perfect. 483 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 1: So you can say what you want to about how 484 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 1: it was in the past, but I know that's what 485 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 1: the team was built on. We were not built to 486 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 1: trick and dig anybody around, all right. It was we're 487 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 1: gonna line up and we're gonna power. Do you have 488 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: anything about McCarthy and what Jerry had to say? You 489 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: still gonna go and live in the past about what was? 490 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: Can we talk about what we'll be Listen, listen, I 491 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 1: knew where you were going with you. You You get about 492 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: to get on the bad bash the old staff of things. 493 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: So I just want to take that clear now listen, now, listen. Hopefully, 494 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: hopefully if the players thought that somebody was predictable, then 495 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully it's a little different. Kellen Moore is 496 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: still the offensive coordinator, so I mean, it's still the 497 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 1: same stuff from last year. This is not rocket science. 498 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,919 Speaker 1: Run to play. Let your best player get open and 499 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 1: make a play. Get out there and start looking like 500 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: the stay you're gonna embarrass yourself. So hopefully they're not 501 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: too predictable. Hopefully, hopefully they're good at something. All right, Church, 502 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 1: I think yeah, I think, um for the most I 503 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: think those comments were related to the defense. I think offensively, 504 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,360 Speaker 1: we know who we are. We're a team led by Dak, 505 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 1: but we have an extremely great co star and Zeke 506 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: Elliott who can run the ball thirty forty times a 507 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: game and be highly productive. So I think that that 508 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 1: part of the offense, I think that's just gonna stay 509 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: the same. I mean, I think we all know the 510 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 1: engine of that offense is, you know, Dak Prescott and 511 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott. But defensively, I think when he was talking 512 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: about being predictable, I think that that was true. I mean, 513 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: Baron Ellie's defense, everything was out of the two shell. 514 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: What I mean by two shell, everything was a two 515 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 1: high safeties and two corners down low, and then we 516 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: rocked and rolled from there, which means when safety came 517 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 1: down at the snap of the ball pretty much every 518 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 1: single time. So offensive started picking on that and started 519 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: picking us apart, you know, secondary wise. So I think 520 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: with this multiple look scheme that Nolan has gone in, 521 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 1: I think our defense will be a lot less predictable. 522 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: You'll have a lot more or a lot more different 523 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 1: players in different positions each snap, so you don't know 524 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: who's coming and who's not coming. So I think being 525 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: less predictable on the defense was more what these comments 526 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: were related to. But hey, we'll see what happens this year. 527 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 1: Let me warn you, let me let me warn y'all. 528 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 1: All right with this different looks on defense. All right, 529 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: the last time we did this and we did not 530 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: have a true offseason. The miscommunications and blown plays, the 531 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 1: number of the number of those that we had throughout 532 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 1: that season was astronomical. All right, So I know we're 533 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: all excited about this, but I don't think he's going 534 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: to take it too far. I hope he doesn't, but 535 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: I don't think he will take it that far. We'll 536 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: see safe be saved, especially with some young guys. You 537 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: got a new guy on the Pregnant Squad branded card 538 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: that just came in. Who has to learn the playbook. 539 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 1: You know, it's cool to disguise and all that stuff, 540 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: but make sure that everybody knows where they're supposed to be. 541 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: One of the ballish Now, don't try to talk about Danny. 542 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:54,880 Speaker 1: You're referencing a Rob Ryan defense. Absolutely, and it wasn't. 543 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: We just we just didn't I know, we just didn't 544 00:26:58,080 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 1: have enough time to learn it. It was all about 545 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: the skies and and attacking the offense in certain ways 546 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: based off what they did previously. We just didn't have 547 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: enough time to get the defense in. Okay, all right, 548 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: just checking, all right? So we got that. You didn't 549 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: like that, Church, would you say now you don't like 550 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: the Rob Royan defense? I thought Rob Bryan's defense was unbelievable. 551 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 1: I just think we had too many injuries that year. 552 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: I mean, we lost Sean Lee. I mean, we a 553 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: lot a lot of people on the defensive side of 554 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 1: the ball, and it just it just didn't work out 555 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 1: the way I thought it could work out. But I 556 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 1: think Rob Bryan's defenses were always We're always pretty dope 557 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 1: when you look at him, because you got different blitzes 558 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: from everywhere. Quarterbacks are always kind of jacked up when 559 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: they're going in their three step drops. So I thought 560 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: his defense was great. He just you know, fell on 561 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 1: injury times and he was in and out too quick. 562 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: Your thoughts, gentlemen, on Shaun Lee and LEL Collins the 563 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 1: right tackle being put on injured reserves. Shaun Lee long 564 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 1: time linebacker here, Start with you Church, Well, first, you 565 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: know Sean Lee I mean, I gotta feel bad for 566 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: the guy. I mean, he he only had you know, 567 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: one healthy season throughout his eleven year career so far. 568 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 1: I mean it's it's tough that he's gonna be on ir. 569 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: Hopefully he's able to come back after these three weeks 570 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: and perform like he did last year. But I think 571 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: the big news here is on the injury to Lyle Collins. Yes, 572 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: they say he may be able to come back after 573 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,360 Speaker 1: the first three weeks, but this is a guy who, 574 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: in my opinion, had the best season last year as 575 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: far as it comes to the offensive line. I think 576 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: he should have made the Pro Ball. I think he 577 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 1: was a Pro Bowl snub. But this is a guy 578 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: that's protecting the quarterback and with him down, We've seen 579 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 1: what happens in the past when our top offensive lineman 580 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: goes down. I mean, look that happened to Chads Green 581 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,919 Speaker 1: when Tyrn Smith went down. I mean there was a 582 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: six sack parade in Atlanta that day. So with Lyo 583 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: Collins being down, and we have some guys that can 584 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: fill those voids, but he's he has big shoes to 585 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: feel and I think he's our best officive lineman. So 586 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: hopefully he'll be able to get back sooner than later, 587 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: because we're gonna miss him these first three weeks. Let me, Danny, 588 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: let me jump in here on this because because you 589 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: brought something up here that was something that bugged me 590 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: about the Cowboys and how they ran their offensive line 591 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: under the last regime, which was they didn't help anybody. So, 592 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 1: Tyrant Smith leaves the game, you put Chaz Green out there, 593 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: with all due respect, everybody and their brother knows Chaz 594 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: is not Tyrant. So when you see they're just running 595 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: around Chaz, why not get the guys some help? And 596 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: last year when Tyre and missed the games, same thing 597 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 1: as well. I said, hey, well and they had they 598 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: had Cam fleming out and they said, Tyrant, why don't 599 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: they help more? He says, that's just not what we do. 600 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: In my opinion, you got if you when you got 601 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: a guy who's putting up a Hall of Fame resume, 602 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: was just named all decade, if he leaves the game, 603 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 1: you gotta go get some help for him. So if 604 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: Lyle Collins, well, if he's going to miss this game, 605 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: and if Cam irving out there at right tackle struggles fellas, 606 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: don't you think they need to help him out a 607 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: little bit. And you think that Joe Philbin will run 608 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: a different style of scheme versus just saying, hey man, 609 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: you tackles are out there on your own. Oh yeah, 610 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: without a doubt. I think they gotta help them. I 611 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: mean we've seen, like like you said before, we've seen 612 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: with Chad's Green where the drop off was so amazing 613 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: from Tyren Smith to Chads Green that I mean, there 614 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: was no help for him. You could have had at 615 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: lista running back coming out there and chip them. You 616 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: could have had to guard, you know, have a hand 617 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: out there to help them tight but they were just 618 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: a tight end something. They were having their way with 619 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: Chad's Green, And like you said, last year, the same 620 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 1: thing happened. So with this here coming up, like I'll 621 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: missing these first three games for sure, I mean I hope, 622 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: I hope they come up with some type of scheme 623 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: to where if he is struggling out there, get a 624 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: running back to chip on his way out to a route, 625 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: have a tight end, give a chip on the way 626 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: out to his route, give him some type of help, 627 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: because you do not want a SAT parade like Atlanta 628 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: A couple of years ago, yeah, did you go ahead 629 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: from mc crae. No, no, you God absolutely, uh listen. 630 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: If they don't, then I don't. I don't know whose 631 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: fault it is for not giving this right tackle. Help. 632 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: You should automatically in the game plan right now, know 633 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: that they're going to attack him and have some plans 634 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 1: for him. Be it read I was put meant in 635 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: some situations where he has to make some decisions and 636 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: slow him down, Like you said, chip them, read option them, 637 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: do anything you can to slow them down to even 638 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: just give Chad. I mean to give him some some 639 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: confidence over there on the right taple, like you don't 640 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: want to go into the game and leave him out 641 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: there body so and then you know it starts going 642 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: bad and all of a sudden he has no confidence. 643 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: So hopefully this coaching staff does that different. That was 644 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: and I knew he I will say this. I was 645 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: absolutely wrong about Layo Collins because I thought that he 646 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:29,959 Speaker 1: was going to be healthy enough to play and they 647 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: were just taking it easy on er. So I was 648 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: I was wrong with that one. But they made a 649 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: mistake in the Atlanta game that cannot be made again 650 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 1: because that was straight up embarrassing the way that they 651 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: left him out there by itself and they led a 652 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: guy who's not known for sacking anybody wreck the whole game. 653 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 1: So he got made off of that one.

I mean, that's doing the 730 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 1: right thing, trying to buddy up to Tom Brady. She 731 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: all those photos. Take the time right now, that is 732 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 1: a smart thing to do. Hey, hey, look say something, man, 733 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 1: that's smart. If our net breaks a sixty yard running 734 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: he's going to be playing in the game for more 735 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: snaps than what Bruce areas talking about. He get out 736 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 1: there and just started running over people crazy, He'll be 737 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: playing more than Jones. I'm not worth it, he said, 738 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 1: Ronald Jones. That's this guy right now. So he's he's 739 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: gonna roll with Ronald Jones. So we'll see. We'll see, man. Hey, 740 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 1: and Jerry wants the back. He dream about him in 741 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,240 Speaker 1: the shower. So there's a lot of stuff the coaches 742 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 1: saying not relevant. Well, Jones is on the team, so 743 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: we at least got that going the guy. We took 744 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 1: a break here the players. Last I was speaking about 745 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: cam cam Irving being the start right tackle for Collins 746 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 1: and the help he will get, and I'm thinking of 747 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 1: the tight ends here. They brought in black Bell, whose 748 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 1: brand new comes over from the world champion Can City 749 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 1: Chiefs and the free agent rookie Sean mckewen of Michigan 750 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: this big Kid six five, two thirty eight. I'm looking 751 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: at these two guys as possible guys who can help 752 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 1: cam Irving if he gets into any trouble against the 753 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:26,879 Speaker 1: Rams on Sunday. Your thoughts, shoe go ahead, Matt, help 754 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 1: him early, don't. I don't even want it to be 755 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 1: a case where it's like, get him in trouble, help 756 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: him early, Yes, yes, yes, they They'll get out there 757 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 1: and they'll help him, and they'll start I don't want 758 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,800 Speaker 1: them to start chipping after we give up two sacks 759 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: or after he gets blown by a couple of times 760 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:42,920 Speaker 1: started off. Help him out, give him some confidence, let 761 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,799 Speaker 1: him know that we got his back, and then let's 762 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 1: put him out there one on one, you know, mix 763 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 1: it up for him. I do not want them to 764 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:51,799 Speaker 1: go out there and say, hey, next man up, let's 765 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 1: start off and see how it goes, and then if 766 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 1: he needs some help, will give it to him. That 767 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 1: that's just not a good game plan. But I think 768 00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 1: those guys can help him. I think we will use them. 769 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 1: I think Kelly I'm gonna learned this lesson from previous 770 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,759 Speaker 1: from previous play calling, and he will make sure that 771 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: he has has his back to style. Yeah, you gotta 772 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 1: you gotta go out there and help him. You gotta 773 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 1: help him early. I mean, you gotta have him chip. 774 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: Even when they're an eleven personnel and you know Blake 775 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: Jarman's gonna go out for a route, you gotta have 776 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: him chipping. I mean, you gotta get his confidence up 777 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 1: early in the game to where he's like, Okay, I 778 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: can block this guy. I can I can do this. 779 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just going from myself going into a 780 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,839 Speaker 1: game we had to play by third year, we had 781 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 1: to go against the Giants and a back by the 782 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: name of Brandon Jacobs was in the backfield. And this 783 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 1: guy's like six four, two fifty six. I mean, this 784 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 1: dude was a huge dude. He's an imposing guy. So 785 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:40,479 Speaker 1: when I'm going out there, I'm like, man, I gotta 786 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,439 Speaker 1: have you know, he's an intimidating guy. So I'm thinking 787 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: as a safety and I got to meet this guy 788 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 1: in the hole. I mean, I don't know, my confidence 789 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 1: was kind of shook, but that first hit when I 790 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: got him Loane brought him down. It got my confidence 791 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 1: up and I was no longer like, man, this dude 792 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 1: is so imposing. I don't know what to do with him. 793 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 1: So hopefully they can do that for cam irving out 794 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 1: the tackle position. Just get somebody to chip, get that 795 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,319 Speaker 1: confidence up and going, and hopefully he can withstand the 796 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 1: whole game. Make make cam Irvin tell you that he 797 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: doesn't need help. Do not make him ask you for help. Yeah, 798 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 1: make him tell you a coach. Coach, I got this 799 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 1: on my own, But I got this on my own. 800 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: Y'all can go ahead and do what y'all gotta do. 801 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 1: I think that's smart and I love that. I love 802 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: that idea. There, mcrai. Let's talk about the roster here. 803 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 1: Two undrafted free agents made this team without OTAs, without 804 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,399 Speaker 1: mini camps. They made the roster of running back Rico 805 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 1: Dowdle and the title we spoke about from Michigan Sean McKinnon, 806 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 1: and Rico was from from South Carolina. So, gentlemen, your 807 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 1: thoughts on those two guys making this team a team 808 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 1: that a lot of people say is one of the 809 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: most talented rosters in the National Football I think it's huge. 810 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: I think it's amazing that. I mean, these two guys 811 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 1: are undrafted rookies. There was no OTAs, there was no 812 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,800 Speaker 1: mini camp, and it was basically like an abbreviated training 813 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 1: camp to where I mean most of the time, when 814 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,399 Speaker 1: you're undrafted, you make all your bones and you make 815 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: you the coaches catch your eye when you're in OTAs 816 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 1: or when you're in mini camp or when you're in 817 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 1: early parts of training camp. And for those guys to 818 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 1: not have any of that and still you know, beat out. 819 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 1: You know a lot of guys that were you know, 820 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 1: picked ahead of them or draft picks. I mean it's 821 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 1: it's a pretty amazing feat now. And the hats goes 822 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: off to those guys. Yeah, I mean being a being 823 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: an undrafted free agent. Uh, I think that that is huge, 824 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 1: and hats off to them. The only thing I would 825 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 1: I would like them to notice it is just starting, fellas. 826 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:32,400 Speaker 1: Everything is even now. Who being a first pick in 827 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 1: the draft or last pick in the draft, None of 828 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 1: that stuff matters now. It's even playing field. Go out there, 829 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 1: make your plays and get you some money, like my 830 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 1: boy be Church did. Speaking of speaking of money, Uh, 831 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 1: speaking of money, we saw DeAndre Hopkins get a two year, 832 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: fifty four point five million dollars deal with the error 833 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: Zona Cartons. Um okay, I guess that was money that 834 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 1: Houston was not going to spend because Houston gave Deshaun 835 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,240 Speaker 1: Watching four years in one hundred and sixty million dollars. 836 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 1: So there's no way in the world they had two 837 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars two hundred four million dollars. But he's 838 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 1: two guys. So I think Bill O'Brien, while being criticized, 839 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:17,320 Speaker 1: if that's the kind of money the hot one, and 840 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,720 Speaker 1: I see why he left because they definitely had to 841 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 1: pay Deshaun Watson the going rate one of the top 842 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:26,719 Speaker 1: five quarterbacks in my opinion, the National Football League going 843 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:30,240 Speaker 1: to that. But create your thoughts on that man. Shout 844 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: out to that man. Man back that brief struck up 845 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 1: and unload his money. Congratulations to him, man, that's that's 846 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,439 Speaker 1: a big deal. I'm just trying to figure out who's next? 847 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 1: Is Dac next? I mean, we you know, we just 848 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,240 Speaker 1: paid somebody a hundred million, We paid somebody else fifty, 849 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 1: somebody else seventy. Do we have enough if Houston didn't 850 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:50,040 Speaker 1: have enough, can we get it done? Or it's that 851 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: gonna be up out of here paid Dack some money. Man, 852 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 1: he just sitting here watching everybody get paid. And I 853 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: saw that. They asked Jerry a question about him getting paid, 854 00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,720 Speaker 1: and Jerry said, I think it's gonna have a phenomenal 855 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 1: years now. He also said he also said they'll get married, 856 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 1: and that they were that they they still playing on 857 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:17,879 Speaker 1: signing Dak Prescott. I know, I know, I know, I know, 858 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: and they could have got into a cheaper rate, like 859 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know. Man, I'll tell you, 860 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 1: I'll tell you who did. I'll tell you who did 861 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:30,480 Speaker 1: play their hand right, uh, Dak's agent, Todd Franz, I mean, 862 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 1: he wasn't with it when he when they said, you know, hey, 863 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: how about this thirty four, thirty five, thirty six million 864 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 1: dollars NA, we're not taking none of that. And he 865 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: was right he saw that. I mean, look at Watson, 866 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 1: he's getting I think annually went around thirty eight thirty 867 00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: nine a year. I mean, and he's done. You know, 868 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 1: I guess they're they're about on par with Dak Prescott 869 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 1: what he's done so far in his career. So Todd Franz, 870 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,359 Speaker 1: I mean, he played an incredible hand and now Dak 871 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 1: Prescott is looking at I'm thinking forty plus. You gotta 872 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 1: be gotta be forty plus. Well, well it's four years. 873 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 1: It's a four year extension, so Watson still has two 874 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 1: years there. So it's gonna take the number down a 875 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:04,799 Speaker 1: little bit. So right now it looks like for you, 876 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: but it comes down a little bit bottom line. Um. 877 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 1: You know, if you're if you're Dak Prescott and his agent, 878 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 1: you feel real good that, Hey, look, Watson got there. 879 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: So Watson's been paid, Mahomes has been paid. Let's go 880 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,800 Speaker 1: ahead and get what we're gonna get there. I feel 881 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:24,320 Speaker 1: that if you're Jerry Jones, you may want to ask Stephen, hey, 882 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 1: why didn't we get this back in August? Because the 883 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 1: prices have gone up for him? But I don't know. 884 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 1: I mean, what else can I say? I mean, I'm 885 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 1: only lose the money to bury Church about this. I 886 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: thought it was getting done, man, I thought it was 887 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 1: getting done. So I am hopeful it gets done after 888 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 1: the year. Jerry says that it is so, so we'll see. 889 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,719 Speaker 1: But if you're Dak Prescott, you're happy because of what 890 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 1: Watson has gotten and what Mahomes has gotten, and you 891 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 1: know that that life for you is gonna be pretty good. 892 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 1: You know that. You know Dad's gonna be able to 893 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:54,759 Speaker 1: make the rent. You know he's gonna be able to 894 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 1: make the mortgage. You know. Listen, if y'all, if y'all 895 00:43:57,760 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 1: don't know that that Dak is on a play and 896 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: see season right now, there is no guarantee that Jerry 897 00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 1: Jones is gonna pay that. If the season doesn't go 898 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 1: as he plans and as he expects it to be 899 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 1: with all the weapons that he has around them, there 900 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: will not be a big contract. And if I was 901 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:15,320 Speaker 1: back and I had a big year, what Deshaun Watson 902 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,399 Speaker 1: made is not even in the realm of what I'm 903 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,879 Speaker 1: asking for. Because once he got drafted in the first round, 904 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 1: y'all got me. Y'all got me in the fourth. Pay me, 905 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,840 Speaker 1: pay me more to compensate for what I've done for 906 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 1: you in the past. Where the value that you got 907 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: out of me for being a fourth round pick and 908 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:32,400 Speaker 1: for what I'm gonna do in the future and for 909 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,120 Speaker 1: making me wait, I want all that. Yeah, And if 910 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,439 Speaker 1: you think about it, all the quarterbacks he's been on, 911 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,279 Speaker 1: all the quarterbacks he's been on, part of me got 912 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 1: the Winzes, the golfs now, the Watsons, they were all extended. 913 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 1: They didn't even have to work to wait till the 914 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,839 Speaker 1: end of their rookie deal to get to get the money. 915 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 1: That had to wait all throughout his rookie deal. And 916 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:50,799 Speaker 1: I was saying, little y'all could have got this done. 917 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,799 Speaker 1: Y'all could have extended me then, but y'all waited too late. Now, 918 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 1: you know, you gotta pay what you gotta pay. Okay, 919 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,839 Speaker 1: So what's the number right right now as we're talking here, 920 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 1: what's the number? Guys played? Dak's agent McCray was heay, no, 921 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 1: no, No No, Today are today are after he has a 922 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:12,200 Speaker 1: great season, because that's the only way he's getting paid 923 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 1: if he has a great season. So we're doing today 924 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 1: like right now. Or if he goes and takes it 925 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 1: to the NFC Championship or Super Bowl or something, which 926 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:23,839 Speaker 1: one of them. Well, look, I mean I go back 927 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,640 Speaker 1: to something I read in John Findsin's book The Quarterback, 928 00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 1: and they were talking about Joe Flacco that year he 929 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 1: turned down money from the raven said I'll bet on 930 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:33,600 Speaker 1: myself and he ended up going to Super Bowl. Flacco said, 931 00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 1: the one reason why he turned it down because he 932 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 1: said he felt like, no matter what, somebody was going 933 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,760 Speaker 1: to pay him. Somebody was going to give a contract 934 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: because to be a star quarterback in this league. And 935 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:44,399 Speaker 1: if Dak Prescott has a season it's eight and eight 936 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 1: or nine and seven and the Cowboys having to miss 937 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 1: the playoffs, there's going to be a team that goes 938 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 1: out there and says, yes, we will sign you. The 939 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: Chicago Bears, no, that Dak Prescott is better than anybody 940 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 1: on their team. It's a quarterback. Okay, it's better than 941 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 1: anybody on Jacksonville's team right now. It's a quarterback. So 942 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 1: so there's going to be some a mark for Dak Prescott. 943 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 1: So let's just at least establish that. But let's market. 944 00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:06,760 Speaker 1: Is it thirty two million? It's gonna be at thirty 945 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 1: two He's gonna get that. But is it like but 946 00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 1: once again today are we talking today as if y'all 947 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:15,839 Speaker 1: should have paid him. De Shaun Watson's got paid if 948 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,279 Speaker 1: they were able to pay him right now based off 949 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 1: what has happened or just played out season. He goes 950 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:23,120 Speaker 1: out here and he has you know, he puts up 951 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,880 Speaker 1: god like numbers and takes him to an NFC championship 952 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 1: with Super Bowl, he's looking at about forty five right now, 953 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:34,960 Speaker 1: he's looking at about forty forty five. Okay, you win, 954 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,360 Speaker 1: you win a super Bowl, Yes, yeah, you win a 955 00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 1: super Bowl this year. Yes, yes, you're looking at somewhere. 956 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 1: They got to work out out somehow to where it'll 957 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 1: be looking at. He can work it up to be 958 00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 1: forty five forty five mil. Yeah, yeah, you got. I 959 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 1: mean you got to him the man. I mean he 960 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,759 Speaker 1: brings home. If he brings home the hardware, I don't 961 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 1: think there's any doubt in anybody's mind. Jerial, right that 962 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:58,239 Speaker 1: check for him. I know what you said. It's a 963 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 1: market somebody's gonna pay. Let let the Bears go two 964 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 1: and fourteen. They looking for a quarterback to pay, all right. 965 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 1: They got to choose between Dak Prescott, proven super Bowl 966 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 1: winner or something or and Trevor Lawrence possibly And I'm 967 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:12,080 Speaker 1: not even sold on that guy, but I'm not. That's 968 00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:16,240 Speaker 1: that's a conversation either. But that's that half another day. 969 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:20,439 Speaker 1: But let's also remember this, Okay, he won't be able 970 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:22,520 Speaker 1: to just go to the free agent market because they 971 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: still have one more franchise tact to play on.

I said ten and six 1003 00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 1: because I still have some question marks about the secondary. 1004 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:19,239 Speaker 1: If I felt better about the secondary, I could go 1005 00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:20,839 Speaker 1: with the eleven wins.
