This is Nick 3 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: Shot screaming live on Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the 4 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 1: official Dallas Cowboys at now Here are Bill Jones, Everson Walls, 5 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: and Nicky Spagnola. Day, Nick here, what day is it? 6 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: Never wrote Chris fifteen weeks of the season. They've got 7 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: it on time. Finally, Hey, he's he's a late bloomer man, 8 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: but I like it. He's good. But he has the 9 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 1: same philosophy as coach McCarthy. They remember when you get 10 00:00:55,400 --> 00:01:00,120 Speaker 1: to ten wins, Now you can start talking fight song Monday, 11 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: fight song Friday. And the Cowboys with ten wins on 12 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 1: the season in command and the NFC East with a 13 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: chance to clinch the division. Mickey Spagnola Tomorrow night when 14 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles and the Washington football team tie, got 15 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: a Goolnick in the publication. That's the only way I 16 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: figured out that that has a point four percent chance 17 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 1: of happening. Point four. So you're telling me there's a 18 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: chance point four point four because there's been one tie 19 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: this year in two hundred and eight games. Well, so 20 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: that's it. That's that means we're due for a time, 21 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: due for a tie? Absolutely? The uh the what is 22 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: it the saying that you always have about in the NFL, 23 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: the more you win and lose, the closer yard of time. 24 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: Oh man, yeah, stuff is my fucking brain. I'm gonna 25 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: say that about that. While in running the marathon, there's 26 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: been a winner and a loser in two hundred and 27 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: seven games, Beach were closer to a tie? Real, why 28 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: not tomorrow night when Washington plays Philadelphia. I've been hanging 29 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,559 Speaker 1: around you guys way too long. We got a doubleheader 30 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 1: Monday night and a well sort of a doubleheader Tuesday. 31 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: There were games we playing at the same time on Tuesday. 32 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: That's right, So can we watch both of them? You 33 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: can tonight tonight now I'm probably at a local sports bar. 34 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: You could watch both tomorrow night maybe. Oh so they 35 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: are both on Fox, both on Fox. So if I 36 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: have two TVs, I can watch them. Well, you've got 37 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,239 Speaker 1: to be able to get your in the Central time zone. 38 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: You'll be getting that feed and then you can pirate 39 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: another one. Maybe. But let's get to the story of 40 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: the day, and that is your Dallas Cowboys have ten 41 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: wins they are ten and four right now, a three 42 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: and a half game lead in the NFC East and 43 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: all as well. Right as far as I'm concerned, it is. 44 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure there's a bunch of folks out there that 45 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: don't like how the Cowboys got to ten winning these 46 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 1: three consecutive games. But they are at ten, and as 47 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: I'd like to remind people, just go ask Tampa Bay 48 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: if they would have liked to win that game ten 49 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: to nine, right, Go ask Arizona Baltimore and Arizona in 50 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:35,119 Speaker 1: Tennessee and all these teams that have had close shaves 51 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: and lost. Yeah, you'd rather win. However, you can win 52 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: in these in these close games in December and get 53 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,119 Speaker 1: to ten wins, which is the most wins the Cowboys 54 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: have had, and the second they had ten in twenty 55 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: eighteen won the division. They had thirteen in twenty sixteen 56 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: and won the division, and they had eleven in twenty 57 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: fourteen in one the division. So if you look at 58 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: what the Cowboys have done over the last eight years, 59 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: they've won four division titles or I'm assuming they're gonna 60 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: win this one. That's more than any other team in 61 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: the NFC East during that period of time. So I 62 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: know all the whoe is us? You haven't won a 63 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, But it hasn't been all, you know, just 64 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: a disaster. And how about this? I found this little 65 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: statum during the timeouts the breaks of the game. I 66 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: started researching it. This is you weren't at the game. 67 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: You were at home. I was at home. Are here right? Okay? Yeah? 68 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: This is like Yes. The last time the Cowboys won 69 00:04:54,720 --> 00:05:00,359 Speaker 1: three consecutive games, all played on the road in a 70 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: single season went three and Ozero nineteen sixty nine. Wow, 71 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 1: was the last time They've played three consecutive games, week 72 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: by week by week on the road eleven times, and 73 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: only three times have they won them all. This was 74 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: the third. The first was nineteen sixty four, and then 75 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: the second time nineteen sixty nine. Dank, So I couldn't 76 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: do it? Huh no? And eighty three. I believe you 77 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: went two and one with that opportunity. And the last 78 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: time the Cowboys had the opportunity was two thousand and 79 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: six and they went two and one. So you did 80 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: all that research during one timeout, I said, timeouts, that 81 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: was plural. He was he was dogged because he continued 82 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: as the Cowboys dominated. Then the next break, he was continued, 83 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: you picked it back up again, right aft. And I 84 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: believe in this game I was stubborn. I was stubborn 85 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: because I said, you stubborn. I'm surprised to hear that 86 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: I could. I could have easily probably emailed Scott A. 87 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 1: Goulnick and he's got a stat package so site that 88 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 1: he can plug stuff in some research. So after I 89 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: did it all, I said, okay, I need backup now 90 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: in case I missed one. There you go, and he 91 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: researched it and that's what came up. So well, it 92 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: was a boring game. Yeah, I love that. I love 93 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: boring games. As a defender. Uh, you know, when we 94 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 1: played the Flex, we made it way too exciting in 95 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: our secondary. Kind of liked this secondary a bit. We 96 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: made our played that we gave up too many just 97 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 1: for comfort's sake. When I went to the Giants, we 98 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: were a little bit more defense oriented. You know. It 99 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: was that old school New Jersey type of playing ball 100 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 1: and those third down stops. As boring as it looked 101 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: on TV, the culture there, it was exciting for the fans. 102 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: But when you're watching a game where the defense is 103 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: just dominating, that boying is what you look forward to 104 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: if it's your defense playing as well as I was 105 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: just playing. I want to talk about that a little bit. 106 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: But first off, your three game stretch in nineteen sixty nine, 107 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: I just looked it up. Those were three straight road games, second, third, 108 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: and fourth week of the season against New Orleans, Philadelphia, 109 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: and Atlanta. So were they all backup quarterbacks the Cowboys 110 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: facing those three games? No? But the quarterback who were 111 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks have been? I've got them for you. New 112 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: Orleans started Billy Kilmer. Billy Kilmer was playing for the scene. 113 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: Probably probably Philadelphia. You probably on crutches, you'll get pill 114 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: you can, you can have a chance of getting Philadelphia's 115 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: quarterback rock close, Okay. In Atlanta's was Randy Johnson. So 116 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: there you go. So those were like three backup quarterbacks 117 00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: and no, well yeah, yeah, yeah, yes they were none 118 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: though Billy was gone. Man, you laugh at me about 119 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: playing against Jim Hart. Now you're gonna set up here, 120 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: give him some credit, creditation, give me a break, Okay. 121 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: And so to your point, what was your point ever? 122 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: I was talking about how boring I was. God, I'm 123 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: on it today. You are you are? And I was 124 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: saying the same thing last night. When I was watching 125 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: what New Orleans did to Tampa Bay, a friend at work, 126 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: Nate Tarplay. I said, Nate, you enjoy watching the game 127 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: like this, and he said, yeah, I do. And nine 128 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: nothing defensive game like that. I appreciate every play mate 129 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: that Dennis Allen put together once again against Tampa Bay. 130 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: And did New Orleans win that game with a backup 131 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: quarterback the same one he's no longer he's no longer 132 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 1: a backup quarterback, he's down the starter. And they scored 133 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: nine points. So the fact that Cowboys scored twenty seven 134 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 1: against New Orleans might be of HUC twenty, but yeah, yeah, twenty, 135 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 1: and that's seven, yeah, yeah, yeah, so that's better than 136 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: zero for the first time fifteen years. I remember, as 137 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: I was watching that game against New Orleans, I wasn't 138 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: as concerned about the Cowboys offense because I thought, that's 139 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: New Orleans defense is playing really well as well, and 140 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: they always have tight coverage. That's what we talked about 141 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: doing the game. That was tight coverage at all time. 142 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: Concerned about the overthrows and weird throws, but the tight 143 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: coverage can make you do that. It will make you 144 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: second guess, especially when the pressure is coming along with that. 145 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 1: So my point is just appreciate winning, especially in December, 146 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: especially on the road. It's not easy, can't And two 147 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 1: of the games are division games. I don't care what 148 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: their records are going into the games. It's always tough. 149 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: It's not easy. Cowboys has been able to do that 150 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: in fifty three the first time fifty three seasons. You can't. 151 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: You can't dog that. I mean, people can say what 152 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: they want. I'm not listening listens to is the people 153 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: that talk just like that, because this is what we've 154 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: strived for. You know, we talked about last year and 155 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: the years before, can we just get a win, you 156 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: know when we need one. We've got three. We're in position, 157 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: and we're the best position we've been in in a 158 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: long time. And about a month ago, yeah, we were 159 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: feeling a little shady about that. And let's shake you 160 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: about that. And especially when you look at the rest 161 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 1: of the NFC and where the Cowboys are sitting right now. 162 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: Forget the division. We'll talk to conference in conference and 163 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: right now number two seed, only Green Bay ahead of 164 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 1: the Cowboys with three games to go, and with what's 165 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: happened with Arizona really the last seven games of the season. 166 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: It's not just the last couple of weeks with Arizona. 167 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: They are three and four in their last seven games, 168 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: and they've lost DeAndre Hopkins and and there clearly are 169 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: not the same team that they've been. Of course, the 170 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: Cowboys are facing them here in two weeks, and so 171 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: when you look at the Cowboys schedule the rest of 172 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: the way, with a Washington team that's going to be 173 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: on a short week and depleted, and then Arizona the 174 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: way they're playing and then closing at Philadelphia, the Cowboys 175 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: have a really good chance to finish it. As Mike 176 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 1: McCarthy told the team after the game, they're on this 177 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: upward climb right there, and the trending good chance trending 178 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,679 Speaker 1: to continue that the last and getting that second seed 179 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: is important as well. If you don't get the first 180 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: the second seats, all you have to do is you 181 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: just win. We just keep on winning, uh playing the 182 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: way we're playing. The defense is in playoff mode. And 183 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 1: the reason they have the second seed right now is 184 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: because they're eight and one in the NFCAT now, so 185 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: there's no top breaker versus Tampa Bay. Then if it's 186 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: a if it's a three way, it's a three way, 187 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 1: there's not okay, And it is right now, and it's 188 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: a three way tie for second with Dallas, Tampa Bay 189 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: in Arizona, and so Dallas has the tiebreaker for the 190 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: two seed. If the season we're to end right now, 191 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: you go, now, if it comes down to the end, 192 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 1: and it's somewhat unlikely now since Green Bay's one game ahead, 193 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: but if they but if they did wind up with 194 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: a tie with Tampa Bay for the second seed, Tampa 195 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: Bay would have the two seeds. Yeah, and that is 196 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: likely because Dallas would have beaten Arizona given them another loss. 197 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: And so if if the let's say Tampa Bay and 198 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: Dallas went out, then Tampa Bay is going to end 199 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: green Bay. Green Bay would have a one seed, Tampa 200 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: Bay would have the two seed, in Dallas the three 201 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: seed because Dallas will knock Arizona down. Yeah. So, but 202 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 1: if Green Bay loses, if Green Bay loses, then and 203 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: then it becomes a three way tie between Green Bay, 204 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, and Dallas, then Dallas would have the advantage 205 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: because they have a better conference record, although only one 206 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: game better than green Bay. I think Green Bay's like 207 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: eight and two and the Cowboys are eighting. Okay, but 208 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys will win out and so though if they 209 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: went out, yeah yeah, so yeah, it's not a bad 210 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: situation as long as you can keep winning. And it's 211 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: not over yet. Three games and we're seeing what's happening 212 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: every time you think, oh, there's Arizona's got this wrapped up, well, 213 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: not too much. Yeah, the Rams got it wrapped up. 214 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: They're looking great. Not so much. It just keeps happening. 215 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: And I know that that, and the Cowboys had it 216 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: wrapped up exactly. We were talking about how the offense 217 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: is carrying the defense at one point at least I was, 218 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: and I was talking about how we're looking at coach 219 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 1: McCarthy for Coach of the Year. Then all of a 220 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: sudden play yeah, oh man, Then all of a sudden 221 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 1: things change, and you know what, to have that luxury 222 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: to go through that kind of change and for us 223 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: to be right where we are right now, that's a 224 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: testament to this team overall. I'm not just talking about 225 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: one player, one fast the game. Overall, we're doing well. 226 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: Defense is playing well, of course, but we have just 227 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: a bit cut down on the turnovers. Offensively, we cut 228 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: down on the mistakes, and our turnover ratio was going 229 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: up if I'm not mistaking the last few games. That's 230 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: the kind of thing that kind of keeps you in 231 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: those ugly games, that keep you winning those ugly games. 232 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: Our fourth quarter turnover ratio remains the same on offense. Yeah, 233 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: but yeah, that's for a later segment. So here's why 234 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: it was boring. Here's why it was boring. The Giants 235 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: they started Mike Glennon. That's why I was Mike Glennon. 236 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: In sixty one plays, they had three hundred and two 237 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: yards in three plays. Of that three h two, they 238 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: had one hundred and ten. So if you take three away, 239 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: fifty eight plays for one eighty two and then the 240 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: Cowboys give up twenty eight thirty six thirty one plus 241 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: fifteen on a horse collar tackle, which is forty six. 242 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: So three plays ended up with more than a third 243 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: of their yards. And that's how well this defense was planned. 244 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: Had they not had those those three plays they got 245 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: away from them, so pretty impressive. And the fact four 246 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: more takeaways, So how about this, four more takeaways. That's 247 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: three games in a row with four thirty one for 248 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: the season, twenty three interceptions. It dawned on me that 249 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: because I I don't believe in defense wins championships. I 250 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: think you got to score points when you get in 251 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: the playoffs to win. So it was like, Okay, nineteen 252 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: seventy seven the Cowboys won a Super Bowl and that 253 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: defense was pretty darn good. They were number one Doomsday two. Yeah, 254 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: they were the number one defense. And it's a fourteen 255 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: game season right now, fourteen games right now? You know 256 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: how many takeaways they had that year? Thirty one twenty 257 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: one interceptions? Was that males interception year seventy Probably not 258 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: because they was on that was on his last legs, 259 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: Yeah he was, it was probably. It's probably around the 260 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: time to play the coach. It was the end of 261 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: the sixties. I think he had ten. So now, yeah, 262 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: so twenty three interceptions so far, Digs with ten, meaning 263 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: only three guys in this organization have had double digit interceptions, Digs, 264 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: renten fro and Edwards Walls. He's got one to go. Huh, 265 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: one to go? What did I say? Thirteen? Yeah? What'd 266 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: you say? I thought he'd get eleven. I don't remember 267 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: what you said. Twelve. I think Okay, I think you 268 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: said twelve and that was a pretty sweet interception. I 269 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: didn't think he got it, Oh I did he did, Yeah, 270 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: he said by the way, Yeah, by the way. And 271 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: so I was looking at the other way. If that 272 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: was a receiver for the Cowboys, they probably would have 273 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: taken it from us. I was looking at it. But 274 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: if it was a green baby, and that's just kind 275 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: of how I was looking at it, like, man, would 276 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: they give that to a receiver? He caught the ball. 277 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: He hit the ground with the ball in his possession, 278 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: he's down and then the guy swiped it out of 279 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: his hands. I thought they he caught the ball. The 280 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 1: guy came in late and got it out. But it 281 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: was more than a swipe. It was a tough tussle. UH. 282 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 1: And I keep I always look at this UH interception. 283 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 1: This touchdown by UH from Detroit was a big guy's 284 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: name Johnson, John Calvin Johnson. He caught the touchdown. This 285 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: when they first started this crap about that. Yeah, he 286 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: caught the ball and I think it hit the ground 287 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: or something. It was easily. You could tell he had 288 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 1: it in his control because his hands are huge. And 289 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: they called that back. You remember that they yes, and 290 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: so I always look at that as a worst case scenario. 291 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: So I was just surprised that they gave it to 292 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: him and not to get done uh off of this. 293 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: But speaking of big hands, what about Barkley's catch? You 294 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 1: saw that? That's crazy? How big all his hands? How 295 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 1: do you mean? Yeah? What what they happened the end 296 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 1: of the ball at the back? I mean he swiped 297 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 1: at it. He did. It's almost like he just swatted 298 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 1: a fly away like he was. It's like a tennis ball. Yeah, 299 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:05,919 Speaker 1: he just got a snatch. And but anyway, yeah, no, 300 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: I thought, hey, I'm I just I just tried to 301 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: search saquad Barkley. I put Charles Barkley, come on. I 302 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: just thought he completed the catch to the ground before 303 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: the guy knocked it out of his hands. And it 304 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: was a good challenge, Oh, no, doubt good chald I 305 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: was surprised, but pleasantly surprised that they gave us that one. 306 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: So anyway, yeah, nine and a half inch hands, which 307 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 1: that yeah, that's not huge. It is compared to mind, 308 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,479 Speaker 1: you know what he's got. He's got strong hands. Yeah, yeah, 309 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 1: that's not a measurement of how strong your hands, right, Yeah, 310 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: so digs three games to go one or what the 311 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,440 Speaker 1: odds are in Vegas on that? Can you get three 312 00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: and three games? Sure? Oh? Why not? Backup quarterback Kyler 313 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: Murray will throw it up for you. Will and who 314 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: knows will be starting Jalen Hurts if he gets Jayalen 315 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: the last game and put him on the Heisman Heisman 316 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: guy put him on his teammate. Well, they all teammates, 317 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: the guy that should have been at the Heisman ceremony. 318 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: Cd um. All right, you got our picks to click 319 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 1: from pigs to click? Yes, Uh, start off with mine, 320 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 1: which is the closest, by the way, a score wise God, 321 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: every time I try to give us some O mine 322 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: was not the closest score. No, we're going to come 323 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: to you last. Yeah, I had thirty one ten. Score 324 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 1: was twenty one to nine. Right, Well it's twenty one 325 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 1: six six six. That's funny. You said nine because I 326 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: did a TV thing and I had to redo it 327 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: because I said twenty one nine for some reason, for 328 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: some reason, I had nine in my mind. So I 329 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: had Javon cursed with ten plus tackles for us fumble. 330 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 1: None of that happened. He had like six or seven tackles. 331 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: Still had a good game. Uh spags, you were thirty 332 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: four to ten and you pig Parsons. He got an 333 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: assistant tackle. Yeah he did, he did well. He did well. 334 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: Uh side note, Randy Greggy didn't have any tackles. I 335 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: know that's crazy, but he had one back hit. He 336 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 1: had hit that was very unusing. And Bill William Jones 337 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 1: had god fifty two to seven. He at least he's 338 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 1: close with the seven. But he did have digs as 339 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 1: to as a player and picked a click player and 340 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: he got he had two picks. I had him with 341 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 1: two picks. Two picks, all right, here was my stick 342 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 1: on it. Okay. The reason I said fifty two to 343 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 1: seven was Okay, I had Treyvon was going to get 344 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: two picks to match Everson Wall's record because they're playing 345 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: at the play with what was the two teams that 346 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 1: two of the three teams at Everson plays, Okay, Dallas 347 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 1: in New York. And so then I put Everson's number 348 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: twenty four Jersey number and his number twenty eight New 349 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 1: York number together. That's how I arrived. Yeah, this explanation 350 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: is a waste of time, but you got the jigs 351 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: with one pick and also Diggs had two pass defense, 352 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: so he was he was playing I want I want 353 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:20,719 Speaker 1: credit for Michael Parson's past coverage. Man, you like that, huh? 354 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: On the play that Anthony Brown got picked off the 355 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 1: wide receiver and he had Booker and he had the 356 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 1: foresight to go with Galladay down the field seventeen yards 357 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: into the end and he went quickly. It was defuickly 358 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: step yes, and screened him off what would have been 359 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 1: a touchdown pass. And I liked him. He saw the movie. Yeah, 360 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: he made the movie and he had hands out very 361 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: exaggerated love. But that was that was pretty sweet. So yeah, 362 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: it was impressive. I wish he would have gone off though, 363 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: ye because you know you think, well, I think lt 364 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: was in jail that point yesterday, but uh, I think 365 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 1: he uh, it would be nice for him to go off, 366 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: you know at the meadow Lands. That would be very cool. 367 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 1: But they used him in a different somewhat of a 368 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 1: different role because they had him playing more linebacker and 369 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: passing situations and he was kind of hovering there and 370 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: they had to spy on Glennon yeah, make sure he 371 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 1: didn't take off on him. I think I do think 372 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: that they were kind of prepping for a more traditional 373 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: role for him on the way out. I think they 374 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: were season I think they were trying to bait him 375 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 1: into some bad passes too, because they had all those 376 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: other guys going they they had moved bash them inside. 377 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,440 Speaker 1: They moved to Marcus Lawrence inside at times in a 378 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: four man rush. Well, what are your keying on on 379 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: the Giants offense? Probably game Parkley. Yeah, And so there's 380 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,159 Speaker 1: a Penn State guy on a Penn State guy, and 381 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,679 Speaker 1: so he's playing the more tradition in at and T State. Well, 382 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: he got hurt, messed up his ankle and was on 383 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: the play. They went to him.

Five oh you mean yeah, 492 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: So they are having a parade tomorrow morning that we'll 493 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: wind up at south Old Cliff High School. So it's crazy. Yeah, 494 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: it's a neat story. Yeah, d I s shout out 495 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: to Michael Down's. Well, you know what, it just goes 496 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: to show you upgraded facilities, a graded equipment and it 497 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: can pay off. That's right, that's right. And uh okay, 498 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 1: so where were we going next with this Cowboys team? 499 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: And you know, one shout out from yesterday's game. He's 500 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: been a little quiet here recently. But how about the 501 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: game Dalton Schultz played? Yes, I loved it. Let him 502 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: in receptions eight for sixty seven yards and a touchdown, 503 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: and his touchdown was pretty sweet that he kept that 504 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 1: play alive. And he ended up being if eyes mean anything, 505 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: the third look because he looked he here, he looked 506 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: there and then he saw Schultz back across the middle 507 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 1: of the back of the end zone and yeah, and 508 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: he helps solve some of your red zone issues, yes, right, 509 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: And you know what else helps salve your red zone 510 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: when you can run the ball into the blocking yards, now, 511 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 1: it helps a lot. Did you see that hole? That 512 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: was beautiful and Zeke ran it so well. I mean 513 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 1: he hit off of every block perfectly, and then the 514 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: surge into the end zone was amazing. Zack Martin, I 515 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: don't know how he did it, but he came from 516 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: right to left and then sealed off. That's the that's 517 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: the last one he needed. That was the last seal. 518 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 1: But they ran one in the end zone, not from 519 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: one or two yards and other than Pollard's fifty eight. 520 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: The last time they did that from that far was 521 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: Zeke thirteen yards. Oh, it was like around the Giants, 522 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 1: Giants somewhere in that Giant's Atlanta stuff the first time around. Um, well, 523 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: when you look at what we're what Dak is looking 524 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: at every week, it's covered too, right, We got they're 525 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: gonna be running covered too with two safeties high until 526 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: we show them that we can run the ball right consistently. 527 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 1: So now you're going to have close coverage by every 528 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 1: defensive back that's on the wide receiver because you could 529 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: be much more aggressive in a two safety high than 530 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 1: one safety high because you are covered almost all over 531 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: the field. So what is left to be open. That 532 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: would be the tight end and the running back position. 533 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: Those are the ones that are vulnerable defensively to cover. 534 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: So that's why you've got Sholts being so prominent in 535 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: these last few games that we've had because these guys, 536 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: the close coverage is there. For the cornerbacks, we love 537 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: running crossing routes. If you're playing the two men inside, 538 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: there's your responsibility, so they're gonna be close on everything. 539 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 1: If you try to run a comeback, then we're gonna 540 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: be under that as a cornerback because the safety is 541 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: over the top. So the the running back and the 542 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 1: tight end they are as extremely important down the stretch 543 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,719 Speaker 1: until we all show them that we are able to 544 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: run the ball. So it was the Giants game. Zeke 545 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: had the final touchdown against the Giants, thirteen yard touchdown. 546 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: The passway it says, well, it sounds like it's a 547 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: run because it doesn't say last ten plus yards. Did 548 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: he catch a pass on that you're talking about the 549 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: first Giants game. Yeah, that's when they did the high 550 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: stepping in the last the last touchdown, he did the 551 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: high stepping in the end zone with a pass out 552 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: of the backfield. I thought that was a thirteen yard run. 553 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: It was a run. It was a run, Okay. So 554 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 1: there they also tried to run it in on third 555 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: and eight at the eleven yard line, up six to 556 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: three in the second quarter, and that did not fare 557 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: as well well because they were going to have two plays, 558 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: two plays to pick it up. They were going to 559 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 1: go for it on fourth down, and they didn't. Only 560 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: picked up two yards, picked up three yards. Three yards 561 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 1: created a fourth so if it was fourth and three, 562 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 1: they would they were hoping, they were hoping that they 563 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: would get closer to like a six yard pickup instead 564 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: of a three yard pickup on the run exactly. And 565 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: that's what he said after the game, by the way, 566 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 1: that that was the idea. It was a two play, 567 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 1: two play deal, and they didn't pick up any yards, 568 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: and so it's like, okay, let's kick the field goal. 569 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 1: Well what about it at the end of the half. 570 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: Everyone same thing. Everyone's you know, on his case again, 571 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: talking about how we could have managed it better. Deck 572 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: seemed like he wanted to call that time out before 573 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: the half to just take one more shot, and he 574 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 1: basically said no, yeah, it wasn't like, oh, I don't 575 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: know what to do. He waved him off because he 576 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: wanted the three points. He didn't want There was a gift. 577 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Lawrence gave him a gift by punching the football 578 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: out from Barkley with forty one seconds left and a half. 579 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: And so you have to come away with points there. 580 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: You can't, especially since the Giants were going to get 581 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:12,879 Speaker 1: the ball right to end to start. So but at 582 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,720 Speaker 1: the time, if I'm not mistaken there with ten seconds 583 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: left after the right when they've spotted the ball, you 584 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 1: don't think they can get one play in in ten seconds. 585 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: Take a shout in the end zone and see what 586 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: you can do. Got him on the votes. What if 587 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 1: you get sacked and fumble could be I think he 588 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: was playing. Here's what he kind of explained it. It's 589 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: like he didn't say this, but here's what he's thinking. 590 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 1: All right, I got three points here. This team is 591 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 1: not going to score much if at all. Oh, you 592 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 1: know he has I'm playing to the defense, right and see, 593 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 1: and that's where that's where the whole analytics thing comes 594 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: into play there, Right, you have to factor in everything, 595 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 1: including especially the opponent and does that opponent have the 596 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: ability at all? Yeah? And so go ahead and just 597 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 1: get the points and get enough of a lead on him. 598 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 1: And where let's look at this as well. I'm glad 599 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 1: you mentioned that. So could you say that offensively, we 600 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: are being a little a lot more conservative considering how 601 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,879 Speaker 1: well our defense is playing. I think he's said doing 602 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: who we play. I think he's playing to the defense 603 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: and playing to who you're playing and knowing that that 604 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 1: wind is pretty tough and it's probably hurting the passing 605 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: game too, trying to throw deep. But yeah, he had time. 606 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 1: He could have called time out and got one more 607 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: play in. And he did this before. I can't remember 608 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: which game it was, and he decided, no, let's just 609 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 1: kick the field goal and get out of here and 610 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,839 Speaker 1: go up fifteen three instead of messing around. And maybe 611 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 1: it's twelve three and they get the ball and a 612 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: touchdown in two point conversion. Now it's twelve eleven, so 613 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: on that on the extra point. You know, you guys 614 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 1: know about the draw bridge. I told you about the 615 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: draw bridge. Yeah, I think the draw No, we're gonna 616 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 1: go this way like it too, right, I have to 617 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 1: tweet it's my bridge, guys, I know that. And it 618 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 1: was on that end of the field as well. That's 619 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,879 Speaker 1: the open area of the stadium. So it's too funny 620 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:24,399 Speaker 1: different into the field from on the other end. There's 621 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: no opening. Yeah, yeah, right, that's no opening on this end. 622 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 1: That's where the opening is and that's where the breezeway 623 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 1: can be caused. So so not calling the time out 624 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,800 Speaker 1: doesn't give them the opportunity to change the draw bridge 625 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 1: as well. Yeah see there you go, there you go. 626 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 1: You want to do it quick when we need to 627 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:44,760 Speaker 1: go ahead kick it out. Don't give them the chance 628 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,919 Speaker 1: the effect. Well, no, they ran it down the three 629 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 1: seconds right, all right, we continue with more mix shots 630 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: at the moment.

Absolutely to me amazing that you can 675 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: continue on this streak and you know, you get an 676 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:46,279 Speaker 1: interception and then the punch outs DeMarcus Lawrence. That was 677 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: heck of a game. That was sweet. He just had 678 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: a heck of a game. And see, well he has 679 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: got extra incentive, doesn't he? Yes, he does. How is that? 680 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: And I was going to give you his line before 681 00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 1: you went to the extra sent of but for his 682 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:02,439 Speaker 1: third game, back to Marcus Lawrence with five tackles, one 683 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 1: tackle for a loss, two quarterback hits, a pass defense 684 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 1: and a forced fumble for a defensive end. That's what 685 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 1: you were missing, not just pass rush all around. So 686 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:20,399 Speaker 1: now it's here the challenge issued from d law to Dak. 687 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 1: I'm important with it to turn that first turnover into 688 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:26,919 Speaker 1: a touchdown. Yeah, I mean it was huge. It was huge, 689 00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: as I mean, I wish we would have turned all 690 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: of them into touchdowns obviously, as I say, but it 691 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 1: was huge. Um, we had we have a little bat 692 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:37,279 Speaker 1: going on. Um I'll let everyone know defense is kicking 693 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 1: our ass. But it's turnovers versus touchdowns that we've we 694 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 1: created this week and they obviously won this one, but 695 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 1: we'll make sure that they carry carries over and uh yeah, 696 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 1: they're they're doing a great job getting the ball. Uh. 697 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 1: Front sevens, attacking back ends, getting their hands on balls. Uh. 698 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,880 Speaker 1: And it's impressive. It's it's great to be a part of. 699 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: But as I said, we've got to reward these guys 700 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:02,839 Speaker 1: with touchdowns that they do he said. They also had 701 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 1: a follow up question and said something like, how you're 702 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 1: gonna pay up? When you're gonna pay up? He goes, 703 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna roll it over. I'll keep it going and 704 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 1: then we'll figure it out. Yeah, just a one game. 705 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 1: They want to take this all the way. They want 706 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: to take a streak the Super Bowl. So right now 707 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: it's thirty one takeaways. How many touchdowns does this team have? Well, Bill, 708 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 1: I could look that up. Okay, during the next time out, 709 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 1: you will look it up and you'll have it for 710 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,360 Speaker 1: us tomorrow. Yeah, that would have to you want to 711 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: be here, will thirty they have forty four? Forty four 712 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 1: okay plus two? All right, so if you if you 713 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: grandfather did back to the beginning of the season, he 714 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 1: would have the lead. But right now from when the 715 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:50,040 Speaker 1: bet was issued, the challenge was issued from d Law 716 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 1: the defense and as the advantage. Right, as long as 717 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: there's a w at the end of the discussion, I 718 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 1: don't think anyone cares who wins that battle. I love 719 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:04,880 Speaker 1: the competition starting for the Washington's Nick Mullins would be yours. No, 720 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 1: no for Washington. I thought you meant for Cleveland, because 721 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 1: that would be and Alan are out. You know, they 722 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 1: signed Garrett Gilbert off the Patriots of practice squad, but 723 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 1: it was was on their practice squad, right, and so 724 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: they have both been rolled out for tomorrow's Hunekee and 725 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 1: Alan okay, and then Mullins is starting for Cleveland at 726 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 1: four o'clock this afternoon against the Raiders because Baker Mayfield 727 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 1: and case Keenum are both out with the COVID. I 728 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 1: get ready for the game, man, I was. If I 729 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 1: was the Cowboys, I'd just tell Cooper Rush to just 730 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 1: go lock yourself in the house. You don't need to practice. 731 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 1: You can zoom in the meetings, don't be here, don't 732 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 1: let anybody in your house, and just stay safe. Okay, 733 00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:00,880 Speaker 1: you want tuck CD briefly, Yeah, up of minutes. You know, 734 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 1: our good friend Nate Newton compares a drop past to 735 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 1: a turnover, and he had four of them. Man, was 736 00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:15,279 Speaker 1: it four? I believe? So one of them was okay, 737 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: looked like the sun was in his eyes, and then 738 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 1: the other ones. It's like he's trying to run with 739 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 1: it and do something fancy before he catches it. Just 740 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,719 Speaker 1: catch the ball, and you know what, he admitted it 741 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 1: trying to do too much. And see that's where if 742 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 1: you look at this team as we go down the stretch, 743 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 1: the leadership has to be strong because you have young 744 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 1: players on this and we forget that. We do forget 745 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 1: that because they're they're operating at such a high level 746 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 1: right now and they're working together as a nice young group. 747 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,839 Speaker 1: But there are times when you need a veteran out 748 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 1: there to right the ship when things start going wrong. 749 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: And there are times when a young team, especially defensively, 750 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 1: they may not be able to wrap their head around 751 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: the game plan against them and to be able to 752 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 1: make the adjustment to come back. That worries me a 753 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 1: bit as we go down the stretch. It happened to 754 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:14,640 Speaker 1: us in eighty one, and it could happen to this 755 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:17,080 Speaker 1: team as well. The youth in the second day. It 756 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:21,759 Speaker 1: can sometimes, Uh, we can be overwhelmed at times and 757 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:23,759 Speaker 1: you have to be careful with it. Let tear whatch 758 00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: CD had to say about the drops? How do you 759 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 1: feel that you played today? You had a couple of Now, 760 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 1: I played terrible to be honest, isn't no, It's no, 761 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:33,560 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I thought I could have 762 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:38,360 Speaker 1: played better had three drops something like that. Yeah, I 763 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 1: thought I could have played better, and he could have, 764 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 1: and he and he ended up. I mean, when did 765 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,720 Speaker 1: he finished with six catches for fifty yards? A couple 766 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 1: of sweet runs that he turned in short passes that 767 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 1: wouldn't have been a first down into first downs. UM So, 768 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 1: you know, give him credit there, but it could have 769 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: been more. UM breaking news from Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide 770 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 1: receiver Chris Godwin out of the season, torn ACL. They 771 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 1: thought it was an angle at first, and then they 772 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 1: thought it was an MCLA, and now the probably had 773 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:18,960 Speaker 1: an MRI today, torn ACL, no playoffs. Did you see it? 774 00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,360 Speaker 1: I didn't. What do you think of it? The head's 775 00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 1: the consequences of the rules themselves. It's just the way 776 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 1: it is. You don't want to get them. I mean, 777 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,240 Speaker 1: these guys have to go low. You'll catch a receiver 778 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:33,440 Speaker 1: when you're trying to hone in on him, and the 779 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 1: receiver may go down to catch a ball. All of 780 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 1: a sudden, you think you have a safe hit in 781 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: his torso and you're making the head shot. So DB's 782 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:45,760 Speaker 1: now they're just playing a safe and they're just staying 783 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:47,839 Speaker 1: as low as they can get so that they won't 784 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,840 Speaker 1: have any more unnecessary in faction. Was there a report 785 00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:57,880 Speaker 1: on sterling Shepherd Achilles? Ye know, ye, you know he 786 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:02,239 Speaker 1: knows thinks. Yeah. I saw where he grabbed and they 787 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:07,319 Speaker 1: were like and it's like, oh, no contact he tore 788 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,400 Speaker 1: as Achilles. You know what that reminds me of like 789 00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 1: when the guy gets hit down low Yeah, and we 790 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 1: all feel it. Yeah yeah, right, that was you you 791 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 1: ye Achilles went and you felt you didn't you? I said, 792 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,759 Speaker 1: you know what, I finally, I finally took my little 793 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,520 Speaker 1: kneel down scooter out of the room where I had 794 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:25,480 Speaker 1: it and put it in the garage. And I was thinking, oh, 795 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 1: if he needs one, I could help him out. He 796 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: I think he's twenty eight years old and he's had 797 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 1: a cup to he's an old twenty didn't he miss 798 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 1: all last? Yeah? He missed last. Yeah, everything's lower legs. Yeah, 799 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:45,200 Speaker 1: and really has made the most of his abilities and 800 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:47,919 Speaker 1: so forth, and he really hoped that he can come 801 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,399 Speaker 1: back from it. But at twenty eight, I mean, it's 802 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 1: not ancient. It's not ancient at all. But like you say, 803 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 1: he's got he's got a lot of wear. Until Kaz 804 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 1: came back, Hooker came back, yea, and they both did 805 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:02,720 Speaker 1: it within a year. So Casey came back quicker than Hooker, 806 00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:05,880 Speaker 1: did you know, as far as so and Hooker. Actually 807 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 1: I saw him make plays. Um, no, he had it 808 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,239 Speaker 1: might have been his best game, had the interview. And 809 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 1: so for Kazy, his occurred in October and he was 810 00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:20,920 Speaker 1: back playing the next season and now. But for Shepherd 811 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,759 Speaker 1: had happened here in December, and so he's going to 812 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 1: be very much in question. I don't know what his 813 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 1: contract status is for, whether he's pre agent or what. 814 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 1: But I knew his mother. Yeah, she passed. Uh. She 815 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:38,680 Speaker 1: lived in Odessa. My relatives live in Odessa. Her older 816 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:42,240 Speaker 1: brother Tony Ford was an amazing football player in Odessa, 817 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 1: and their legends and the Shepherd family brothers Darryl and 818 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:50,160 Speaker 1: Woody Shepherd were great football players as well or his 819 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:54,200 Speaker 1: uncles that would be Sterling's uncles, but Derek, his dad, 820 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,799 Speaker 1: was the youngest of those Shepherds whatever. And of course 821 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:02,239 Speaker 1: Derek died tragically racquetball when he was an assistant coach 822 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 1: at the University of Wyoming and so chef Dog. Yeah, 823 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 1: and of course he played for the Cowboys, which is 824 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 1: amazing because when we were back at the ranch and 825 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:14,280 Speaker 1: he was with the Cowboys. It was in the off season, 826 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 1: and remember the racquetball courts there. They needed a fourth right, 827 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,799 Speaker 1: And I came walking by and Chef goes, come on, man, 828 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 1: you're playing. I know what you mean. I plan. He goes, 829 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,759 Speaker 1: your plan. I said, I hadn't got any tennis shoes on. 830 00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:29,359 Speaker 1: He goes, just take your shoes off, play with your 831 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 1: socks on. So I did, right, and he took over 832 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:36,279 Speaker 1: the game for us and we had no problems. Yeah, 833 00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 1: he was a hell of an athlete. As a matter 834 00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:43,719 Speaker 1: of fact, when I interviewed Sterling at the Senior Bowl, 835 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:47,959 Speaker 1: I told him the story. But me and your dad playing, Wow, 836 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 1: that's cool. Yeah. And one other note before we get 837 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:55,400 Speaker 1: out of here. Jalen Smith has now been signed for 838 00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 1: the rest of the season. Four tackles got him a job, right. 839 00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 1: He didn't not practice with the Giants in plays against 840 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 1: at him because he was having too much fun out 841 00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 1: there with the Cowboy players like it was practice or something. 842 00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,360 Speaker 1: So he's gets three more checks in the next three weeks. 843 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:17,440 Speaker 1: That's good for him. Though, that's good for him. He'd 844 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: just be glad that they ran the ball thirty times. Yeah, 845 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 1: they didn't get him isolated in coverage. All right, We 846 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:29,360 Speaker 1: will let Mickey go off more on that tomorrow on 847 00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:32,759 Speaker 1: the next edition of mix Shots, and we will chat 848 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 1: at you later.
