Speaker 5: That's your hint.

24
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 3: But for now we've got other news to discuss, ladies.

25
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 3: No Tyron Smith, no Uncle hank Is I used to

26
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 3: likes to call him. Uh yeah, Cowboys are losing Tyrant

27
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 3: Smith to the New York Jets, of course, Jonathan Hankins

28
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 3: signing a one year deal with the Seahawks. Let's y'all

29
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 3: just take aways, man, I mean, and this is obviously

30
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 3: two big losses for this Cowboys franchise and moving.

31
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 4: Forward, big shoes to Phil for both of them.

32
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 6: Yes, I tweeted this because when I got the notion

33
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 6: the Tyrone would be now protecting Aaron Rodgers, the first

34
00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 6: thing that came to my mind was that scene in

35
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 6: The Grinch when he's like hate hate hate, double hate

36
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 6: loth entirely That's how I feel about it. And then

37
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 6: you read the details of how the money for him

38
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 6: is going to be kind of spread out, and Christy

39
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 6: and I talked about this on another podcast, but with

40
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 6: incentives how much he can make. I guess what's very

41
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 6: frustrating about this is that it was a very doable deal.

42
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 6: Bless you, that the Cowboys could have gotten done to

43
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 6: keep your Hall of fame, future Gold jacket tackle in

44
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 6: that offensive line that is going to need all the

45
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 6: help it can get. Already losing your starting center, people

46
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,799
Speaker 6: again can say and discredit the amount of I guess

47
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 6: impact that not having Tyler Biattish will have, But being

48
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 6: a center is a difficult job. That's going to impact

49
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 6: your offensive line enough. Now you're losing a veteran All Pro,

50
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 6: future gold jacket tackle.

51
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 7: I can't.

52
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 4: It upsets me.

53
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 5: It was doable. They didn't find a way, and it's

54
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 5: from strading. And now you have.

55
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 6: More holes than you did at the end of the

56
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 6: loss of the Green Bay game. You have more holes,

57
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 6: and you already had a lot of holes. So how

58
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:14,799
Speaker 6: do you fill it? Just the draft, free agency, that's.

59
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 5: Not that's not going on.

60
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 6: So I'm frustrated with how you fill the holes that

61
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 6: are now here, because, like you.

62
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:21,959
Speaker 5: Said, big shoes to fill.

63
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 6: But you need a plug and play player in these positions.

64
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,119
Speaker 6: These are it's vital for the success of the team.

65
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 6: So I'm frustrated and I wish him well and the

66
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 6: Jet's better take care of him.

67
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, And it goes to show you how much lack

68
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 3: thereof money we really did not have, right you know

69
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 3: or we're just in my opinion, not spending it in

70
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 3: the right areas.

71
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 4: They're being very prudent.

72
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 8: Yeah, but they were prudent last year too, And and

73
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 8: two of the big additions last year came via trade.

74
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 8: And it was about this time of year when they

75
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 8: brought in stuff on Gilmour.

76
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 4: And Brandon Cooks.

77
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 8: So it was mid to late March, like March twentieth,

78
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 8: March fourteenth, something like that, March nineteenth, and so but

79
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 8: it caused you what fourth excuse me, fourth and fifth rounders.

80
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 8: And so now that's that's coming back this year. But

81
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 8: are you ship What did your take on the Hankins,

82
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 8: because I know, yeah, she's still struggling with struggling with

83
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 8: it because they also lost Neville Gallimore.

84
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 4: So two of your defensive tackles are gone.

85
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 5: You have Galiless now.

86
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 4: At the door.

87
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 7: If I'm not mistaken.

88
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 9: Your DT depth is also Diggi Zua, Carl Davis, Mozzie Smith,

89
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,679
Speaker 9: and if you want to get a little fancy, Chauncey Golston.

90
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 9: But I could definitely see Mike Zammer moving Chauncey back to.

91
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 4: D N because you've lost Dante, Drence Armstrong.

92
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 7: The DT depth is very concerning.

93
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 9: If I'm not mistaken, Even when you look at you know,

94
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 9: a lot of people are like, I mean, they felt

95
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 9: like Hankins took a step back last year.

96
00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 7: He did deal with some injuries and things like that,

97
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 7: but it's no.

98
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 9: Mistake that when he was on the field, there was

99
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 9: it was a difference in how this team played defense.

100
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 9: And as far as DT goes, I just cannot believe

101
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 9: that after that performance defensively like that, you don't prioritize

102
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 9: getting veteran defensive linemen or tackles in this room.

103
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 7: Teams not only.

104
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 9: Attacked your edges, they did attack your interior. And to

105
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 9: lose probably one of the best things that's happened to

106
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 9: your defensive line.

107
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 7: They went out and got Hankins because.

108
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 9: They knew they were not getting yeah, and to lose him.

109
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 9: But also to to your point, just the details of

110
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 9: his of his could change haven't come out, but it

111
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 9: sounds like he's gonna be doing some veteran minimum stuff.

112
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 9: So when you talk about that, even so, it's like,

113
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 9: all right, baby, we clearly ain't on no target budget.

114
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 7: I thought maybe it was on a Walmart budget. Oh no,

115
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 7: m a.

116
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 4: Family dollar.

117
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 6: You might not even be on that budget at this point.

118
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 6: At this I'm concerned I might not be on that budget.

119
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:14,359
Speaker 9: That's how my mind operates. But it's it's concerning. It

120
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 9: is concerning the lack of urgency that I feel from

121
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 9: this team. Like it would be different if they did

122
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 9: not lose the way they lost to Green Bay, but

123
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 9: that was arguably the worst loss of the year. And

124
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 9: then to turn around and center the urgency and again,

125
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 9: like we can talk about the cap and all this stuff. Hey, respectfully,

126
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 9: we see other teams around this league do it. So

127
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 9: I'm I'm I'm very concerned with the defensive line depth

128
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 9: because like to your point you said, Christy, you did

129
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 9: lose two of your backup ends too, so it's like

130
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 9: you lost a backup dtackle Neville Gallimore and now it's just.

131
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 5: You can even scale it back.

132
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 6: You lost Layton vander Esh I mean officially.

133
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 8: Right, I think what's disappointing to me is and I

134
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 8: want to talk a little more about Tyron's contract and

135
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 8: that when he restructured last year, it put dead money

136
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 8: into this year's cap. So so Tyron Smith is counting

137
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 8: second most dead cap. Zeke is still counting a six

138
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 8: point one million.

139
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 4: For us in dead cap, and then and then excuse me.

140
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 8: Six point yes, let's see Zeke is six point four

141
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 8: and so Tyron's counting just over six million dollars. Leyton

142
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 8: Vandersh is counting two point twenty five million, and then

143
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 8: Dorrence Armstrong, who's going to be playing against you twice

144
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 8: as a member of the division rival commanders, is one

145
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 8: point five million. So it's not just that you don't

146
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 8: put the money towards Tyrone or Dorance. Layton's a different

147
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 8: thing because of the neck issue. But still you're paying

148
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 8: so much money for them not to play for you.

149
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 3: Nine.

150
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 8: I know that that happens every year, but the Cowboys

151
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 8: had been pretty clean with the dead cap the previous

152
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 8: of years, like in twenty two and the like. The

153
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 8: one thing about Tyrone, though, is we see that it's

154
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 8: one year deal six point five million. That's what's reported

155
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 8: for the Jets, and that's true. But well it's so

156
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 8: it's heavily incentivized, right because but here's the thing. The

157
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 8: incentives work in a couple different ways. The likely to

158
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 8: be earned incentives meaning that we expect you to achieve them,

159
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 8: mean that they count against this year's cap. And then

160
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 8: unlikely to be earned count against next year's cap. Well,

161
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 8: he played over seventy percent of snaps this year and

162
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 8: it ended up being like an extra four million dollars

163
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 8: from the Cowboys for reaching his playing incentives.

164
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 4: Well, the Jets with.

165
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 8: All of the incentives that they put towards Tyrone into

166
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 8: playing time now, because he played so much last year,

167
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 8: you have to anticipate that he'll play that much this year.

168
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 8: His cap charge is actually twelve point two five million,

169
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 8: So I know.

170
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 4: It's reported as one point one year for six point five,

171
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 4: but you have to account for those part.

172
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 8: Of those incentives that are likely to be earned. So

173
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:11,719
Speaker 8: it's twelve point twenty five now to me for a

174
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 8: future Hall of Famer, a quality, proven left tackle in

175
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 8: the NFL like Tyron Smith to me, is easily worth

176
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 8: twelve point twenty five million, but having to fit within

177
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:27,079
Speaker 8: the budget there. But last year from the Cowboys he

178
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 8: earned seven point three. That was with a three million

179
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 8: dollar base, with a signing bonus and reaching four million

180
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 8: in incentives. So yeah, I am just to put things

181
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 8: in perspective, you got a a Pro Bowl season out

182
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 8: of Tyrann for seven point three, but it's counting six

183
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 8: million against your dead.

184
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 3: Cap this year and expect him to honestly seed that

185
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 3: because when the Cowboys figured out his whole practice regiment

186
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 3: and making sure that he was off no veteran rest

187
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 3: days of course included, and then Thursdays Fridays, he didn't

188
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,679
Speaker 3: practice till what Friday, I believe.

189
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 7: So I do wonder when they want.

190
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 9: To uphold that though, because it's not that's not the

191
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 9: norm at all. And uh, you know, the Cowboys figuring

192
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 9: that out for him was great. Well, another team follows suit,

193
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 9: possibly if they want to get the best out of them.

194
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 9: But there are some coaches who want their offensive linemen

195
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 9: to practice, especially since they get limited time.

196
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 7: As it is. I mean, he is, he is the

197
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:26,680
Speaker 7: veteran of all veterans.

198
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 9: But at the same time, now he's going to a

199
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 9: new system, you know, new coaching, he has to think

200
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 9: he has to gain continuity with that offensive line. I'm

201
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 9: not sure that's going to be a thing we'll see,

202
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,719
Speaker 9: but it was a very unique situation. The way that

203
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 9: they practiced him yesterday. You don't see that across the

204
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 9: lead that often.

205
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 5: I feel like it'd be fullish of them.

206
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 6: Not too though, because you clearly saw the higher success

207
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 6: rate that he had by doing it in previous seasons.

208
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 6: I mean, again, you're talking about a guy that hadn't

209
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 6: played a full season since twenty fifteen, right, and so

210
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,679
Speaker 6: this year you got the best tyrant that you have

211
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 6: gotten in years. And I credit Mike McCarthy for being

212
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,680
Speaker 6: willing to do that with his guys to say, look,

213
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 6: I'm thinking about the longevity. I'm not thinking about right

214
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 6: now and all of that. You guys know what you're doing,

215
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 6: and it goes back to not micromanaging. So it is

216
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 6: an interesting point to see if the Jets will do it,

217
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 6: but they'd be foolish not too considering you saw the

218
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 6: success he could have.

219
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 3: With it, and if you're paying him, you might as well.

220
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 5: Yep, you know, you know he can do it.

221
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 8: It's just so frustrating that you can try and manage

222
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 8: as much as you like. But the year before, but

223
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 8: the year before with the hamstring injury, that was here

224
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,319
Speaker 8: at the Star in the evening training yeap, and he

225
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 8: walked off.

226
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,199
Speaker 4: Hand string injury and gruesome.

227
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 8: Yeah, and it was not a it was not a

228
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 8: contact practice, it was not a wear and terry. It

229
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 8: hardly done anything in camp really, so you can manage

230
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 8: it as much as you like.

231
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 4: But that's the thing with these players.

232
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,679
Speaker 8: They there's a lot of age and mileage, well in

233
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 8: Tyrron's case, mileage on that body, you know, so it's

234
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 8: to certainly a risk.

235
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 7: Now, do you.

236
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 3: Move Tyler Smith to left tackle?

237
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:06,559
Speaker 10: Do you keep?

238
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 6: Think?

239
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 4: It all depends on what happens in the drafts?

240
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 3: Yep.

241
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 8: You know that it's heavy, and it's heavy in offensive tackles,

242
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 8: and Ayisha is are draft expert on this show, but

243
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 8: there are other teams that also have big.

244
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 4: Needs at offensive tackles.

245
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 8: So if you're targeting, if you're targeting someone in the

246
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 8: first round, there, it's not a guarantee that you know

247
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 8: at twenty four that he's going to be available.

248
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 9: I mean, I guess the thing is, it's like and

249
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 9: we talked about on the draft show yesterday, Now that

250
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,439
Speaker 9: you guys mention it, this team is putting themselves in

251
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 9: a position to have to draft for need.

252
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 7: And again I think everyone.

253
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 9: Does draft for need based on Boka okay, and they'll see, Okay,

254
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 9: this is the best player available. We'll see where that

255
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 9: fits in our needs and they'll draft from there. But

256
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 9: they're kind of showing their hand here, and I don't

257
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 9: think that's helpful going into the draft. They have not

258
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 9: really replenished a lot of the positions that they've lost.

259
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 9: You've lost five starters, five, not like one or two, baby,

260
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 9: you and lost five and to go into this draft,

261
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 9: I'm concerned about, you know, the fact that they are

262
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 9: going to probably be drafting for the needs they need

263
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,079
Speaker 9: to fill. And also too, it's so odd that they're

264
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 9: handling free agency again like this and just the way

265
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 9: that things are happening because you didn't get a lot

266
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,439
Speaker 9: from your draft class last year, so that puts you

267
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 9: in another place to.

268
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 7: Where you're kind of playing catch up.

269
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 9: So we I mean, like, whoever their first three draft

270
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 9: picks are, you're almost asking for immediate impacts.

271
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 7: You're asking for almost immediate Like you definitely need to get.

272
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 9: Something from them right away. Christy, you mentioned that this

273
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 9: tackle class is deep. It is, but once you start

274
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 9: getting to the mid rounds, it's like.

275
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,719
Speaker 4: I don't know about that, So it's got to be

276
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 4: a first or second day.

277
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I do think.

278
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 9: There's more There are more guards in the later rounds,

279
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,079
Speaker 9: so maybe they do decide to just go guard in

280
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,719
Speaker 9: some of the mid rounds and then moved Tyler out there.

281
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 9: I will say, and I've said it before, if they

282
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:04,679
Speaker 9: moved Tyler this year where.

283
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 6: He is, I was just about to say, put him

284
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,839
Speaker 6: somewhere and keep him there, moving him around.

285
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 7: He's the ultimate team player.

286
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,959
Speaker 9: He has been very, very open about the fact that

287
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 9: he enjoys being reliable, being called upon. But for the

288
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 9: betterment yeah, but for the betterment of the of the athlete,

289
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 9: of the player, he needs to go somewhere where he

290
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 9: can develop.

291
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 7: This will be his what fourth year, third year, third year?

292
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 9: I would hope, I would hope that he would that

293
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 9: the team wherever they put him this year, they would

294
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 9: keep him there and allow him to start developing.

295
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 7: And perfecting his craft. Because there's a difference between guard

296
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 7: and tackle.

297
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 9: There's so many differences, the kicksteps, the spacing, the way

298
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 9: they strike, everything, and so I love that he's versatile,

299
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 9: but I don't want that to be a crutch consistently

300
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 9: for them to not draft accordingly and to be aggressive

301
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 9: with that. Now, do y'all wonder if this has if

302
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 9: the letting go of Tyrant says anything about maybe what

303
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 9: they think about Awsome Richards or maybe what they think

304
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 9: about also too. I totally forgot so when of my

305
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 9: homies brought it up.

306
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 7: They brought in Lao Collins late last year.

307
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 9: Yeah, maybe they're going to try to make him the

308
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 9: swing tackle and get him in shape and have him

309
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 9: ready to go.

310
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 7: I'm wondering if guard too.

311
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think you've got more depth at guard than tackle.

312
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 8: I know you're assuming that, well, let's go. You know,

313
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 8: may may be able to give you something, or ball

314
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 8: could could give you something.

315
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 4: Honestly, I'm I'm more concerned about center. Yeah.

316
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 8: You know, you got brock k Hoffman, who presume it

317
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 8: like if you had a game tomorrow, he'd be your

318
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 8: your starting center. But it's just seems like there is

319
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 8: more depth and moving parts not only with what you

320
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 8: have but what you can get in the draft or

321
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 8: free agents at garden tackle then at center.

322
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 4: Does that make sense.

323
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 9: There's some guys in the draft that are some of

324
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 9: the later rounds that are I think will be good

325
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 9: center options for good.

326
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 8: Centered like day one plug and play possibly yeah, yeah, but.

327
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 7: I will be there twenty four.

328
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 6: I also think that later Day three, Yeah, day three.

329
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 5: I also think though too.

330
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 6: It's one of those things that I personally didn't realize

331
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 6: until this season how much of a chemistry has to

332
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 6: be built with your center and your quarterback. And yes,

333
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 6: you can have a player go in and do what

334
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 6: a center needs to do, it doesn't necessarily mean him

335
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 6: and Dak will be on the same page day one.

336
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, like that's that's just the.

337
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 6: Reality of the position is. Tyler Beyottish and Dak Prescott

338
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 6: had a very good friendship outside of football.

339
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 5: That they grew so they could communicate.

340
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 6: So we talked about that in terms of CD and Dak,

341
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 6: how Dak and CD worked on the dockyard to do

342
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 6: that Beyonddish and Dak were doing the same thing, so

343
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 6: their communication would be on points, so it would all

344
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 6: be connecting dot you know, during games and not figuring

345
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 6: out in game time situation. So again I I'm with you, Christy,

346
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 6: I'm I'm I don't like that they didn't try to

347
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 6: reacquire beyatdish more because again, people can say what they

348
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 6: wanted about him, and.

349
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 5: Yes there was issues with with coverage.

350
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 6: And allowing sacks, we all know that, but also it's

351
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,199
Speaker 6: he you didn't notice a lack of communication from your

352
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,439
Speaker 6: quarterback and your center because they worked their tails off

353
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 6: to make sure it was there.

354
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 5: So it is concerning.

355
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,920
Speaker 9: This is my last thing when you look at the

356
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 9: NFC as a whole, when you look at I think

357
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 9: if you look at a lot of teams, man listen,

358
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 9: that interior of the defensive line is what That's where

359
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 9: a lot of teams strengths are right now. Is like

360
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 9: the good teams is that they have good interior defensive linemen.

361
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 9: The interior of your offensive line needs to be a

362
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 9: little violent, needs to be, you know, ready to go

363
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 9: wrestle every day. And so for me, I'm also too

364
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 9: looking at their lack of running of run efficiency last year.

365
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 9: A lot of that had to do with the center

366
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 9: not being able to get to the second level consistently

367
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 9: and things like that.

368
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 7: Centers are tone setting as well.

369
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 9: There's a temperament that comes with being a center, and

370
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,119
Speaker 9: so I do think that this team does need to

371
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 9: look at that position in itself to see how they

372
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 9: can run the ball more efficiently. Because if your center

373
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 9: can't get to the second level, nobody cares. I'm just

374
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:34,159
Speaker 9: being honestly, and so it's limiting also as well with

375
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 9: how you can do different run plays and stuff like that.

376
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 7: The run game.

377
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 9: Stopping the run and running the ball are two of

378
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 9: the reasons why you got kicked out the playoffs. And

379
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 9: I don't understand what y'all are.

380
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 4: They've said the emphasis.

381
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 6: Is on that, But that kicked you out of the playoffs,

382
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,199
Speaker 6: not just once, twice two years in a row.

383
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 5: Need not forget. It's a recurring issue, everybody.

384
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 8: It's hard to be patient, that's for sure. It's patient

385
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 8: for the first couple of weeks. Fat, but hey, you know,

386
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 8: just just pay it. Pay attention to recent history. And

387
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 8: this is the way the Cowboys have operated and.

388
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 7: That's what's so upset. And because it's not getting you nowhere.

389
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 4: It's got you three wins to three straight and twelve wins.

390
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, and that's fine and dandy.

391
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 4: Measured measured in the playoffs.

392
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 9: I mean, and it's it's not even that as measured

393
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 9: in the playoffs because the issues that you had this season,

394
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:35,919
Speaker 9: they showed up in the regular season.

395
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,120
Speaker 6: The Bills not like it was like surprise, Like that's

396
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 6: what I'm.

397
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 7: Talking about, Like I knew it.

398
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, we called it before the game.

399
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 6: We said, if they lose this game, it's because they

400
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 6: didn't stop the run. Aaron Jones just ran all over

401
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 6: the place. Look, he pretty much ran from one side

402
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 6: of Texas to the other during that game. And again,

403
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 6: where was your run game?

404
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 5: All right?

405
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 6: Non existent like it had been all season, and that

406
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 6: it was not because of the lack of effort from

407
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 6: the players, it was it just it wasn't something that

408
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 6: was normal because it wasn't there all season.

409
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 5: Don't get us started.

410
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 7: But ye don't get that's my thing is like my

411
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 7: therapist tell me all the time. I used to like,

412
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 7: you can't and.

413
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 5: Hey, therapy is healthy, it is. We love therapy.

414
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 7: She always asked me.

415
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 9: She's like, I think you know the answer here to

416
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 9: what you're asking me. And like, because I found out

417
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 9: I've done if I'm making the same mistakes over and

418
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:31,360
Speaker 9: over again, she don't.

419
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 7: She's not giving me input. Yeah, she does not give

420
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,679
Speaker 7: me input. She's just like, you can figure this out.

421
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 9: I'm waiting for them to figure it out on their own.

422
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 7: That maybe drafting and developing is fantastic.

423
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 9: I appreciate that they're a team that likes to draft

424
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 9: and develop because I think there's a lack of that

425
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 9: in this game. However, you have to marry it to

426
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 9: doing some things In free agency. Free agency, especially depending

427
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:59,119
Speaker 9: on the position. You don't want no baby coming anywhere detackled.

428
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 9: Most of them take time to develop. Like mazi Yek

429
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 9: told us, he's going to take time to get to

430
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 9: the point to where he's gonna be able to efficiently

431
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 9: stop the run consistently. Guys don't do that, Jordan Davis.

432
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 9: Those guys over there Jaalen Carter for Philly, highly talented.

433
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 9: Everyone was really excited about them. See what happened to

434
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 9: them towards the end of the year. They're play tapered

435
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 9: off because they didn't have the depth that they needed,

436
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 9: and they're still they still got similarc behind their ears.

437
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 9: It's it's just like you, I just don't understand the

438
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 9: thought process, and that's.

439
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 3: All you kind of said. You touched on them basically

440
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,959
Speaker 3: showing their hand for this draft. Christy, Has there been

441
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,239
Speaker 3: a time that you remember the Cowboys just showing their

442
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 3: hand like this heading into a drive?

443
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, they do it all the time. Yeah yeah,

444
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 4: every year off Yeah, yeah, pretty much.

445
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 8: But you know what their podcast thirty one other podcasts

446
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 8: for thirty one, other teams that can most of them

447
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 8: can say the same thing. Yea, honestly really so uh

448
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 8: but yeah, you talk about therapy. I feel kind of

449
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,399
Speaker 8: like I'm on the on the receiving end of the

450
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 8: one eight hundred number, where you know.

451
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 4: You've got the cowboys woes, and it's.

452
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 8: Like, can't even walk the dog without people walking up

453
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 8: to me and saying what are we doing when the

454
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,640
Speaker 8: guys go and not signing? And again, I understand it's

455
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 8: hard to be patient.

456
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 6: That's why I went to Disney. I said, look, I

457
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 6: need some space from this. This is unhealthy.

458
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 5: I need to relax. Yeah, here I am relaxed. No patience,

459
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 5: but relaxed.

460
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 3: All right, Hopefully our special guest has arrived if we're

461
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,719
Speaker 3: gonna take our first break. You're watching Girls Talk, Boys Talk,

462
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 3: presented by Jigsaw, the preferred dating partner of the Dallas Cowboys.

463
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 4: While he has all right, right on time, we'll be

464
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 4: right back.

465
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 3: All right.

466
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 11: We know that juicy, cheesy, grilled to perfection burger sounds amazing,

467
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 11: but it does sound like something is missing. Pepsi baby,

468
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 11: the yin to this Burger's yang. Burgers and pepsi go

469
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 11: together like well, like burgers and pepsi. This perfect blending

470
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 11: of flavors makes every bite of let us every sesame

471
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,280

00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 10: that's about it. Got back to work, that's it.

505
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

506
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 5: Have you been starting to train on stuff like that

507
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 5: that past couple of weeks?

508
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,360
Speaker 10: Oh yeah, Well I took like maybe like a week

509
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 10: and a half off and then I just went back

510
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 10: to work because I mean I I hit some goals

511
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 10: that I wanted last year. But you know the only

512
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 10: way that I know how to to really just like

513
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 10: get the bad taste out of my mouth from last

514
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 10: year just to go back to work. And that's pretty

515
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:29,440
Speaker 10: much all I really been doing.

516
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,199
Speaker 5: What goals did you not hit?

517
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 8: You led the team tackles, you played over seventy percent

518
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 8: of snaps.

519
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 4: I mean it was really, really a wonderful question. Great

520
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 4: season for you.

521
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 10: I used to tell you, Bro, I'm really hard on myself.

522
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 10: So me personally, I don't really need nobody else to

523
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 10: be hard on me. I'd be so hard on myself already.

524
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 10: But I mean it's like for me, I just hold

525
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 10: myself to such a standard that I just feel like

526
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 10: I didn't meet what I wanted to do last year

527
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 10: for myself. You know, you know it was a wild

528
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 10: season last year, and you know a lot of guys

529
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 10: like going down and a lot of guys having to

530
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:06,719
Speaker 10: step up.

531
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 2: But I mean that's all a part of it.

532
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 10: But I mean, like I said, I just went back

533
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 10: to work and just looking to improve on the things

534
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:14,679
Speaker 10: that from last year.

535
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:15,880
Speaker 2: Just to take the next step this year.

536
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 6: And demon obviously something that altered the course of the

537
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 6: season was Lighton going down so early on in week five,

538
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 6: And you and I had talked about this and kind

539
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 6: of how he was your big brother and not even

540
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 6: just on the field but off of the field, and

541
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 6: he was with you through your rehab process and kind

542
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 6: of how difficult it was to see the empty locker

543
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 6: next to use your locker buddy as well. So talk

544
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 6: about how that altered what you had to do on

545
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,719
Speaker 6: the field, because I feel like there's not really an

546
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 6: understanding of how much your role changed with Lighton not

547
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 6: being there anymore.

548
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 2: I mean, Laighton's the guy, he was the.

549
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 10: Leader of the defense, you know, obviously him going down

550
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 10: after the Sant Frank game. You know, I had to

551
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,159
Speaker 10: step up, and it wasn't nothing different. I mean, the

552
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 10: linebacker spots are really interchangeable, I mean, so it wasn't

553
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 10: that it was just me having just to step up

554
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 10: and knowing that you know, Layton went in the game,

555
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,479
Speaker 10: so it was like somebody got to, you know, get

556
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 10: the front set up and somebody got to get the

557
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 10: calls out and stuff like that. So I mean that's

558
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,120
Speaker 10: pretty much it. Other than that, everything else was the same,

559
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 10: you know. And I think back about my time at LSU, like,

560
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 10: I mean, it grew me to the points of where

561
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 10: I'm at right now, and even sitting back now, that's

562
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 10: a lot of things that I think about last from

563
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,440
Speaker 10: last year of his past years.

564
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 2: What can I have done better to help the defense?

565
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: You know.

566
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,639
Speaker 10: And that's that's why I say, like, you know, I

567
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 10: ain't really have much of an off season. I really

568
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:40,680
Speaker 10: just went back to work.

569
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 8: Layton wrote a beautiful note to everyone, teammates, coaches, fans,

570
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 8: the organization. I thought it was very heartfelt and so

571
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 8: well written and emotional. But and I think it hit

572
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 8: a lot of fans in the heart, you know, because

573
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 8: we remember when he came in. It's this young rookie

574
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 8: from this small town in Idaho. But what do you

575
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 8: want fans to know about Layton and what he specifically

576
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 8: meant for this team.

577
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 10: I mean a lot of guys might just know Layton

578
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 10: from the football aspects, but I had the opportunity to

579
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 10: do a lot of off the field things with Layton

580
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 10: and just build their relationship with him, even last year,

581
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 10: last offseason, and I was coming off my rookie year,

582
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 10: and I worked out with Layton all off season and

583
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 10: just really just spent time and just picked his brain

584
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 10: because he's super smart. You know, a lot of people

585
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 10: might not know Layton off the field, but he's an

586
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 10: even better person off the field than he is on

587
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 10: the field. And obviously he's going to be missed, you know.

588
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 10: And I read his heartfelt message, and I mean I

589
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 10: felt it myself, because I mean I know the work

590
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 10: that he put in and then just from talking to

591
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 10: Layton on the side outside of his message, you know

592
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 10: what I felt for him because obviously nobody wants to

593
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 10: walk away from the game that they love, you know.

594
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 10: But it was just the circumstances, and you know the

595
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 10: same thing that I told him. Know, everything happened for

596
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 10: a reason, and I told him for sure that we're

597
00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 10: gonna hold it down for him.

598
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 3: How did did you kind of handle that news?

599
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 5: I mean, this was someone that's like a brother.

600
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 7: To you on and off the field.

601
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 10: I mean when he went down like lighton and I

602
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 10: was talking and obviously, like I mean, I pretty much knew,

603
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 10: you know, the options that he had in hand, you know,

604
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 10: and obviously I just told him to do his best

605
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 10: for you. I can't sit there and tell you, yeah, bro,

606
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 10: I would do this, I would do that, like, because

607
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 10: that's not me, you know. And I just told him,

608
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 10: like obviously he had to make the decision that was

609
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 10: best for his wife and for his little girl.

610
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 2: And I mean, I feel he made the right decision.

611
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 2: You know.

612
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 10: Obviously, having kids, you want to be able to play

613
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 10: with your kids and enjoy that time, you know, And

614
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 10: that's the biggest thing with me that you know, you

615
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 10: got to put yourself in his situation, you know, Like

616
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 10: I have a little girl myself, so I know at

617
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 10: the end of the day, I want to be able

618
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 10: to play with my little girl, you know. And obviously

619
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 10: football is going to be here whether we leave or not,

620
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 10: you know. And obviously it was hard on Lyighton, but

621
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 10: just knowing the type of guy that lateon is you

622
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 10: don't see at and around. Again, he's not going to

623
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 10: just sit there and just be in the house, and

624
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 10: you know, just obviously he's gonna spend more time with

625
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 10: his family, but Lady's the type of guy like he

626
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 10: wanted to be out there, so he's going to pour

627
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 10: into me. He's going to pour into other guys to

628
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 10: you know, because he wanted to be out there with us.

629
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 8: Well, the one thing that's constant in the NFL is changed,

630
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 8: and not just roster but coaches and the like. And

631
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 8: so I want to ask you about not only Mike Zimmer,

632
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 8: but Eric Kendrick's coming in and how much or how

633
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 8: many interactions have you had with Eric so far, if any,

634
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 8: and do you think he'll be an even greater resource,

635
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 8: not just as a veteran, but the fact that he

636
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 8: played for Zimmer for so many years.

637
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'm excited to have e k N.

638
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 10: Obviously he's played in the system already, so having a

639
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 10: guy like that with experience coming in, I mean, I'm

640
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 10: super excited to work with him. And as as far

641
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 10: as Zim, I mean I had conversations with him. Obviously changes,

642
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 10: change is good, you know. And from the things that

643
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 10: you know, talking to Anthony Barr, like, I'm going to

644
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 10: really like him, Like I love coaches that's hard on you, Like,

645
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 10: that's that's it. Like I come from LSU coach, Oh

646
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,560
Speaker 10: was hard on us. So it's like that's what I'm

647
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 10: used to, you know. And he's a guy that's going

648
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 10: to demand a lot from you, and I mean that's

649
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 10: what I like.

650
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 12: You know.

651
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 10: Obviously d Q held us to a standard as well,

652
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 10: and he put a lot on us and it was

653
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 10: up to us to respond, you know. And the biggest thing,

654
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 10: like I mean, it's it's the same thing, you know,

655
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 10: It's it's just two different coaches.

656
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 2: You know that's coming there. You know.

657
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 10: Obviously it's it's fun. You know, you can't make it

658
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 10: no more than it really is because at the end

659
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 10: of the day, it's still football, you know.

660
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 2: Y'all know.

661
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 10: I mean, it's the NFL, so things happen. But I'm

662
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 10: super excited to work with e K this year and

663
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 10: just to pick his brain because I'm going on your

664
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 10: three thing.

665
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 2: It's like you're.

666
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 10: That's what I'm saying. I'm going on three and it's

667
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 10: a big gap between three and ten. So I mean,

668
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 10: I'm just going to pick his brain and learn. I'm

669
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 10: sure that the rest of the guys in the line

670
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 10: back room will do that as well.

671
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 3: Is there anything Is there anything in particular that you

672
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 3: are most excited about learning from Eka?

673
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 2: Really just know learning the defense.

674
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 10: Like I said, he played he played with Zim you

675
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 10: know for a good while in Minnesota. So obviously when

676
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 10: you have a chance to come and you know, come

677
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 10: in with somebody that you play under their system already,

678
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 10: I mean that's a no brainer. So I'm super excited.

679
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 10: And just from talking to Anthony Bar like he's another

680
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 10: Anthony Bar but like they both are good dudes, man,

681
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 10: you know, And that's the biggest fami me lot. I

682
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 10: mean obviously I'm laid back, like I don't I don't

683
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 10: do too much, you know, and I like guys that's

684
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 10: like similar.

685
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 9: To that I'm actually excited for you because with Zim,

686
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 9: he does a lot of different things in his system.

687
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 9: He'll show and go and do things where you're dropping

688
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 9: in the covers. He might play close to the line

689
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 9: of scrimmage. You're gonna have opportunities to put the passer.

690
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 9: I mean, he does shake it up a lot for

691
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 9: your the linebackers to be involved in stuff. But I'm

692
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 9: also excited for you because you know, you and I

693
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 9: have had conversations but and maybe you won't say it,

694
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 9: but I'm glad that you're gonna have another teacher, another

695
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 9: person to lean on. I think that's something that in

696
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 9: yours the start of your career, it's been, you know,

697
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 9: kind of guys being here and then they're gone, and

698
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:11,719
Speaker 9: then guys being here and then you're gone. And then,

699
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 9: like you just mentioned, you need mentorship as a young player,

700
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 9: and you really need mentorship as a linebacker. There's so

701
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 9: many things that go on, and so I'm excited for

702
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 9: you and your development to have Kendricks and to like

703
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 9: know he's going to be here this season and like

704
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 9: you said, for you to pick his brain. I've been

705
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 9: covering the draft and we talk about the combine and

706
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 9: we talk about pro days and things like that. I

707
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 9: had the pleasure of going last year and just talking

708
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 9: to some of the guys just in passing.

709
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 7: I don't think that you get a.

710
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 9: Real idea of how much pressure it is and how

711
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,959
Speaker 9: hard it is until you talk to those guys. Can

712
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,719
Speaker 9: you talk about a little bit just how it feels

713
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 9: going through that process and how strenuous.

714
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 7: It is on you really?

715
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 10: I mean, uh, just training for the combine when I was,

716
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 10: when I was going through, I mean, it was a

717
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 10: fun experience. You know, you meet guys from different schools

718
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 10: and you all have one common goal one you know

719
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 10: it was I mean I went to California. That was

720
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 10: that was really was my what my second time going

721
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 10: to California. I mean the first time we played U C.

722
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 10: L A on my senior year, so that was only

723
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 10: my second time going. And you know, I had the

724
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 10: privilege to meet a lot of good guys that I

725
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 10: still talk to to this day, do jersey swaps with

726
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 10: them and everything. So I mean, you all have one

727
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 10: common goal in mind. But I mean, obviously once you

728
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 10: get down to to the combine, it's guys from everywhere.

729
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 10: You know, guys from verywell, which we all have the

730
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 10: common goal in mind. We all want to showcase our

731
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 10: talent and just just the things that you you do when.

732
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 2: You go there.

733
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 10: You know, you have meetings, you gotta you have like

734
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,280
Speaker 10: meetings with the nfl PA. You know, you got meetings

735
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 10: with the different teams and stuff like that, which it

736
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 10: could be nerve racking, but really when I went, I

737
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:52,800
Speaker 10: it was it was easy when I went because I

738
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 10: was training that Proactive Sports Performance in California, and they

739
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 10: really prepped us for everything, you know, and it's just

740
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 10: like you really just going in the meetings and just

741
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 10: having a normal conversation like some coaches going to be

742
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,320
Speaker 10: you know, just like having a normal conversation and some

743
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 10: of them gonna just trying to see how you're gonna react.

744
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 10: You know, You're just going down and just have a conversation.

745
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 10: The biggest thing is just be who you are.

746
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 2: You know.

747
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,160
Speaker 10: That's what I did when I went in there. Like

748
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 10: I remember meeting with the Cowboys. I mean I sitting

749
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 10: there talking to Queue. I remember Will McClay was in there,

750
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,359
Speaker 10: a couple other guys I think Scotty was in there,

751
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 10: a couple of guys.

752
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 2: I just went there. You just have a normal conversation.

753
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 10: You know, they they already know everything that they need

754
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,839
Speaker 10: to know, right, They obviously just want to see if

755
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 10: you're gonna tell the truth of something so crazy gonna happen.

756
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,919
Speaker 10: So I mean, I just say, like it is nerve racking,

757
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 10: but you going there, You just sit down, just be yourself.

758
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 10: They're gonna put you on the board like ask you

759
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 10: like questions like that. But it's it's really it's really

760
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 10: simple the moment.

761
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 6: My question for you is, so, like you just mentioned,

762
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 6: Layton was this big brother for you and really took

763
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 6: on that role and you got to learn from him.

764
00:35:58,239 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 5: Well, there's a.

765
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 6: Younger guy coming in behind you with the Marven over

766
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,759
Speaker 6: shown who his season got cut very very short, very

767
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:05,759
Speaker 6: early in preseason.

768
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 5: What is it like for you to be able to

769
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 5: take over that big brother role for a guy.

770
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 6: Like Demo who has so much potential that we didn't

771
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,720
Speaker 6: get to see yet it's also going through a rehab process.

772
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 5: What's it like for you to be able to be

773
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 5: that big brother for him?

774
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 10: Now? I mean I knew, like obviously he got he

775
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 10: had the chance to, you know, get his feet wet.

776
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 10: Obviously he got hurt the Seattle game, but he you know,

777
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 10: he comes with a positive attitude every day.

778
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 12: You know.

779
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 10: Obviously I'm I'm a young guy myself, so i can't

780
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 10: really sit there like I'm a big brother. But I'm

781
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 10: still learning myself too. But I mean it's like he's

782
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 10: a great guy man. He's stay engaged all the time.

783
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,959
Speaker 10: And I remember just the it was the Jaguars game

784
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 10: and some of the Seattle game from the preseason.

785
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 2: We was just out there just flying around, you know

786
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 2: a lot of times.

787
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:52,320
Speaker 5: You remember that.

788
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, we always talk about that.

789
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 10: You know, we like obviously, you know, things happened for

790
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 10: a reason, and you know, we both just super excited

791
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 10: for it this year, just to go out there and

792
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 10: just you know, just ball out together, you know, and

793
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 10: that's obviously, like that's the biggest thing.

794
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:07,800
Speaker 2: That's what that was what we want to do, you know.

795
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 10: And like you said, his season got cut short and

796
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 10: he could have easily wavered, but he took it under

797
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:14,680
Speaker 10: the ten and he just like, Hey, I'm gonna do

798
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 10: whatever it is that I gotta do. He still came

799
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,480
Speaker 10: to meetings last year when he still was standing gage,

800
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 10: and he come every day and he ready to work

801
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 10: every day.

802
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 8: Love that, Yeah, I got something for you, demon and

803
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 8: that is right now, Cowboys Nation.

804
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 4: Demoralized.

805
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,680
Speaker 8: That might be a little strong, but you see all

806
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 8: of these players that we're losing in free agency and

807
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 8: Tyrone and you know, Layton and Michael gone and so

808
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:44,240
Speaker 8: many Hankins and Daunte and Durrance.

809
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 11: Or so.

810
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 5: What do we have to look forward to?

811
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 4: What do you feel good about?

812
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,239
Speaker 8: I guess what I'm asking you is to talk to

813
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 8: Cowboys Nation because right now everyone's ready to jump off

814
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:57,800
Speaker 8: the bandwagon.

815
00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 4: If they haven't already, I say.

816
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,279
Speaker 10: Just be patient. You gotta just trust the process. I mean,

817
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 10: I'm I'm in the same boat that everyone else is in. Like,

818
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 10: I don't know myself, you know, I don't honestly, I

819
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 10: don't be on social media because you know it's yeah, yeah, you're.

820
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 2: Kind of wild on this, so you know, I don't. Yeah,

821
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:15,799
Speaker 2: I don't be on social media.

822
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 10: So I mean, obviously I see things obviously if someone

823
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 10: asked me about it or if someone tell me, you know,

824
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 10: that's when I find out a lot of things. So

825
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 10: I mean, my biggest thing for me is just to

826
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 10: control the things that I control. And that's the way

827
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 10: I come to work every day and I mean, it's

828
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 10: it ain't like we're in the play a game next week.

829
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 10: You know, you gotta just obviously, you got to just

830
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 10: trust the process. It's easier said than done, but I

831
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,319
Speaker 10: mean you really got to just trust the process. I mean,

832
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 10: this this is not their first rodeo. You know, you

833
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 10: gotta let My biggest thing, you just let the front

834
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:44,719
Speaker 10: office do what the front office do. You know, I

835
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 10: don't I'm staying on the player side. I ain't in

836
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 10: the front office. I don't get paid to it. I

837
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,239
Speaker 10: get paid to, you know, be on the player side.

838
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 10: So that's the biggest thing that I do. And I

839
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 10: just say, just trust the process.

840
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 12: You know.

841
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 10: I mean, obviously, like we all want to win. You know,

842
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,920
Speaker 10: I know every player on this team win. You know,

843
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:02,880
Speaker 10: we're gonna do whatever it is that we have to do.

844
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 10: But obviously, you know, it's the off season. You know,

845
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 10: it's got a lot of time. We just got like

846
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 10: I said, just let the front office do what they do.

847
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 2: We just do what we do.

848
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,000
Speaker 3: I've got one final question for you. This linebacker room,

849
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 3: there's I would say it's kind of like a little unknown, right.

850
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 3: You have Eric Kendricks coming in demo fresh off an injury,

851
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 3: first year back, haven't really seen what he can do

852
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 3: at the NFL level, and you you know, taking on

853
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 3: a role as well. What are you most excited about

854
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 3: as far as just in.

855
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 2: That room alone, I said, we all have the will.

856
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,040
Speaker 2: You know, we all have that will too.

857
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 10: We all want to be great, and we all want

858
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 10: to do whatever we can to contribute to the team winning.

859
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,839
Speaker 10: And you know, I can't sit here and not bring

860
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 10: up Marquise Bell. That's what I'm saying. Just the road

861
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 10: that he took on last year and just being in

862
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 10: uncomfortable situations and him just being the guy that's just

863
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 10: going out there and him being the team first guy,

864
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 10: and he, I mean, whatever he had to do to

865
00:39:59,000 --> 00:39:59,680
Speaker 10: help the team win.

866
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 2: And I mean, like you say, it's a lot of

867
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 2: unknowns in the room, but that kind of goes back

868
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 2: to let the front off his work.

869
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:09,480
Speaker 11: And make it.

870
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 10: He's gonna he's gonna make something shake. And it's like,

871
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 10: I'm super excited, you know, Absoually, It's still it is

872
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 10: a lot of unknowns, but I mean you just got

873
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 10: to play the cards that you know at the end

874
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 10: of the day too, like you know, So, I mean

875
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 10: I'm super excited. I know the guy is super excited

876
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 10: to you know, get going, and I mean, like you said,

877
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:29,839
Speaker 10: we'll see from there. But we got a lot of time,

878
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 10: and I mean I'm eager to get started. Because the

879
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 10: only way to get a bad taste out your mouth

880
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 10: is you just gotta gotta turn the page. Obviously, that's

881
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 10: something that I'm telling myself. You gotta turn the page

882
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,440
Speaker 10: from last year, because I mean, I think think back

883
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,400
Speaker 10: about last year all the time, but you gotta just

884
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 10: turn the page and learn from the mistakes and just

885
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:48,439
Speaker 10: don't make those mistakes again.

886
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 3: We're excited to see what you're doing your three, what

887
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 3: the Cowboys do next year. Thank you so much, Damon

888
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 3: for joining us and taking the time out to.

889
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 7: Come over here.

890
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:57,560
Speaker 4: Girls boys talk.

891
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 3: We're gonna take our second break back. Thank you.

892
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 4: It was great at Jigsaw Dating.

893
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 12: We obviously want the Cowboys to bring that sixth ring home,

894
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 12: but to be honest, we're more focused on finding the

895
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 12: person who will put a ring on your finger. That's

896
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 12: why we created a dating app that reveals your face

897
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:20,319
Speaker 12: through meaningful conversation so you can date deeper, because it's

898
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:24,800
Speaker 12: personality that matters the most, not looks. Join Jigsaw Dating Today,

899
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 12: dating partner of the Dallas Cowboys.

900
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 4: You know that sound anywhere.

901
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 11: It's the crisp crunch, that first nacho chip with its

902
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 11: perfect cheese to sour cream ratio sitting atop a layer

903
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 11: of delicious beans. It's a sip away from perfection.

904
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:46,800
Speaker 5: That's what we're looking for.

905
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:51,360
Speaker 11: Add a delicious, refreshing pepsi, and we've achieved absolute nacho nirvana.

906
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 11: Because while you can pile those nachos high with every spicy, cheesy,

907
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:59,800
Speaker 11: savory topping, there's no topping or cool PEPSI. Finish nachos

908
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 11: better with PEFC That's what I like.

909
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 6: Chesney is bringing his Son Goes Down twenty twenty four

914
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 6: the official ticketing provider of AT and T Stadium. Funny story,

915
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:39,919
Speaker 6: It's not a long story. I don't feel like I'd

916
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 6: be sitting here if it wasn't.

917
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:42,720
Speaker 5: For Kenny Chesney. I'm not kidding.

918
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:43,560
Speaker 7: How's that?

919
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 6: So?

920
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 10: I went?

921
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,920
Speaker 6: I went to his concert at AT and T Stadium

922
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:52,880
Speaker 6: Two years ago, RGOHO with Blogging the Boys, saw a

923
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 6: video I had posted of Mike McCarthy, Jason Whitten, and

924
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 6: Dak Prescott giving a helmet to a little girl during

925
00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 6: the concert.

926
00:42:58,080 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 5: It went pretty viral.

927
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 6: RJ reached out to me, and because of that, I

928
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 6: reached out to RJ about a month later to do

929
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 6: a job with blogging the Boys. Ended up podcasting with them,

930
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 6: and then a month after that, the concept of girls

931
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,320
Speaker 6: Talk Boys Talk came up. Jane had reached out on

932
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 6: social media for women that could talk Cowboys football. RJ

933
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 6: threw my name in the hat, and then at that

934
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:22,160
Speaker 6: point Kelsey Charles also through my name in the hat.

935
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:25,640
Speaker 6: So I'd like to think that Kenny Chesney had a

936
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 6: little wow.

937
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 7: Actually, I love that.

938
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:28,440
Speaker 5: It's very weird.

939
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 6: Uh, It's one of those like, had I not gone

940
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 6: to that concert, which I bought the tickets for ten

941
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 6: minutes before on seat Geek, the official ticketing provider of

942
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 6: bedls or At and T Stadium, rather, I don't know

943
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:41,040
Speaker 6: if I'd be sitting here.

944
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,239
Speaker 4: Hey, life is what happens to you while you're making

945
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 4: other plans.

946
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:45,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was fun, good talk.

947
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 4: Absolutely, it's a great story.

948
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 3: We've got a couple of minutes and how cool was

949
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,440
Speaker 3: that to have demon Oh yeah, does everyone feel a

950
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 3: little better?

951
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 8: Not just kind of in terms of we were saying

952
00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,760
Speaker 8: it's hard to be patient, and he acknowledged that as well.

953
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 6: But.

954
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:04,879
Speaker 5: He's very.

955
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,360
Speaker 4: Chill, chill focused.

956
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:09,080
Speaker 7: Surprise.

957
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 9: I was laughing to myself when he because the i'ms

958
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:14,920
Speaker 9: over her, like the combine be stressful.

959
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:19,239
Speaker 4: Well, if you get to spend a couple of months

960
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:21,040
Speaker 4: in California getting ready that.

961
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 6: I also think he gives you a good perspective. That's

962
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 6: where the team is right now following the loss, and

963
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:30,879
Speaker 6: I'm so glad he said, like, look, it's my job

964
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:34,239
Speaker 6: to be a player and not dictate what happened to

965
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 6: the front office. Yeah, and given do they have another choice? No,

966
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 6: But at the same time, he's focused on him and

967
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,839
Speaker 6: what he needs to do next year. And that gave

968
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 6: me a little bit of a hope raise if you will,

969
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 6: to know that these guys are focusing on getting that

970
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:51,759
Speaker 6: bad taste out of their mouth.

971
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,239
Speaker 3: And I love the question that Christy had asked, I mean,

972
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 3: how do you even exceed your goals when you were

973
00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 3: the team's leading tackle list last year? But I mean

974
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:00,920
Speaker 3: that just says a lot about the type.

975
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:01,759
Speaker 5: Of player he is right now.

976
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:04,279
Speaker 3: He wants to just continue to get better and do

977
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,879
Speaker 3: whatever it takes to make this team better.

978
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 7: He's a perfectionist.

979
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:12,279
Speaker 9: Like there's times I've went up to him and I'll

980
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 9: be like, you're all over the place to dame because

981
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 9: I'm watching the film.

982
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,800
Speaker 7: And he's like missed like three tackles.

983
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:23,120
Speaker 9: I'm like, bro. And it is exciting though, because Mike

984
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 9: Zimmer has a way of getting the best out of

985
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 9: linebacker corpse. He's very creative and how he uses his linebackers,

986
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,320
Speaker 9: and so I'm excited for him to get teaching. But

987
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,080
Speaker 9: I meant what I said about the fact that he

988
00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,680
Speaker 9: needs mentorship and he has not really had it consistently.

989
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 9: Not again, Leyden has been injured and stuff like that.

990
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,960
Speaker 9: But linebacker is so much up here. Absolutely, if you

991
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 9: don't have a veteran teaching you, he's learning on the fly,

992
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 9: and quite honestly, I think it was December of last

993
00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 9: year that was considered a full rookie year for him,

994
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 9: so he's still very fresh.

995
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:02,000
Speaker 7: In this game.

996
00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 9: Yes, so the addition of Eric Kendricks is very important

997
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:12,640
Speaker 9: to the team overall, but I think for him, he

998
00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 9: truly needs it, and so I'm excited for him and

999
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:18,439
Speaker 9: Demarion over shown to have someone that's played the game

1000
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 9: this long around and stuff like that, because that's the

1001
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:24,759
Speaker 9: thing about he mentioned, Layton's IQ was crazy high. It

1002
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:26,719
Speaker 9: just was a point where his body was, you know,

1003
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:28,120
Speaker 9: not allowing him.

1004
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 7: To do the things that he wanted to do.

1005
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:33,920
Speaker 9: So I'm I'm I'm excited for the linebacker corps to improve,

1006
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:35,800
Speaker 9: and I think they know that they have to improve.

1007
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,279
Speaker 8: The other thing that I really liked what he said

1008
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:40,960
Speaker 8: was in regards to Zimmer, I like to be coached hard,

1009
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 8: because I think that's one of the storylines or one

1010
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:45,759
Speaker 8: of the things that media and fans are talking about

1011
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:49,000
Speaker 8: this offseason is the old school style, hard nose of

1012
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 8: Mike Zimmer and young players. You know, young players this generation.

1013
00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:56,239
Speaker 8: They you know, you can't treat players like that. They

1014
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 8: don't respond well. Most of the players are like down

1015
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 8: and that they they they want to be better. And

1016
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:07,719
Speaker 8: so whether it's from a big brother type mentor Eric

1017
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 8: Kendricks or Layton Vanderesh type of thing, but specifically a

1018
00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:14,919
Speaker 8: defensive coordinator or an and or position coach to drive

1019
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:18,239
Speaker 8: you hard. So I think that that what Damon said

1020
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 8: today dispelled a little bit of that thing about coaches

1021
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,239
Speaker 8: and the young players. They're not going to respond to

1022
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:28,719
Speaker 8: a guy like Mike zimmer No, No, the pros, the

1023
00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 8: guys who are truly professional, respond to anyone who can.

1024
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 4: Put them, put them in the right spot and help

1025
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:39,840
Speaker 4: them to improve individually. A great show.

1026
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:47,200
