The Cowboys did say 53 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 8: in their statement that they were going to commit their 54 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 8: search immediately, and boy, they were not kidding around. Jerry 55 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 8: Jones put in a call to none other than Colorado 56 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 8: head coach Sanders from a former Dallas We're. 57 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 5: Sure Jerry actually dialed the phone and called or did 58 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 5: Colorado possibly or Dion possibly. 59 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: Call the other way around? So saying. 60 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 8: I'm saying it was probably c like they probably had 61 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 8: a little yeah, a little bit of both. 62 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: There's more on that. 63 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 5: I want you to continue before I get it. Yeah, 64 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 5: I think it's all. 65 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: Oh no, absolutely, we're gonna talk about that. 66 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 4: I hear this. 67 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 8: As far as who sent the hey, big head text, 68 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 8: you know, I'm sure Jerry probably big You know that 69 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 8: that you up going keep going, So we don't rumor 70 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 8: has it reportedly it was Jerry Jones and the Cowboys 71 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 8: who reached out to Dion Sanders and uh with primary 72 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 8: interest and UH. 73 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 7: Prelimit primate Mary primary Mary. 74 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 8: Mary preliminary is the better word, preliminary interest with interviewing 75 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 8: him possibly interviewing him. No formal interview has been set 76 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 8: between the two. No formal interview has taken place. It 77 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 8: was just a back channel conversation to gauge interest. Reportedly 78 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 8: there is mutual interest, and now we're gonna circle to 79 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 8: the opinion part of it. 80 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:31,799 Speaker 1: Stop it. My opinion is it is your opinion has stopped. 81 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: My opinion is stopping. I get it. 82 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 8: It's the headlines, it's fun, yeah, Eon, it's all the things. 83 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 8: But what's going to ultimately happen is it's gonna go 84 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 8: nowhere and Colorado's gonna up the bag that much more 85 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 8: for Dion. So you could arguably say this is a 86 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 8: leverage move by Dion. And that's where I'm gonna leave 87 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 8: it with my opinion. 88 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 6: Dion doesn't want to be here. 89 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 5: Let's let's let that completely know Dan, why not Kyle, 90 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 5: Because he wants full control of what he does to 91 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 5: build a football team, and that's what he did at 92 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 5: Jackson State, That's what he did at Cedar Hill Trinity 93 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 5: Christian That's what he did here now currently with the 94 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 5: Colorado Buffaloes. He doesn't want that at the NFL level, 95 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 5: plain and simple. He's good friends with Jerry. They have 96 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 5: a relationship back and forth and it has been since 97 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 5: he played here in Dallas. It makes storylines, but he's 98 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 5: amidst a contract negotiation for an extension in Colorado before 99 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 5: that phone call happened. 100 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: It's a leverage movie. 101 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 7: And these two men of the same idea when it 102 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 7: comes to business one. 103 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 1: They knowsating, they know. 104 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 10: How to market themselves, and they know how to make headlines. 105 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 10: I'm not saying that's a big part of what you're 106 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 10: seeing now. 107 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 5: I'm not saying it would would not be fun. Oh 108 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 5: my goodness, the media circus would be unbelievable. It would 109 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 5: be the most entertaining thing of all time. 110 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: Is it a great X's and O's move. Maybe, who knows. 111 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 5: We don't know really what's gonna happen out of the 112 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 5: next head coaching higher It could be a terrible X's 113 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 5: and O's move outside of of Deon Sanders. But man, 114 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 5: I just don't see this one a mutual agreement of 115 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 5: let's do this. 116 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: No. 117 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 8: I think it's it's headline driven and as far as 118 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 8: the news and notes, let's give the objectivity. And here 119 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 8: is Deon Sanders' response to the reports quote to hear 120 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 8: from Jerry Jones is truly delightful and it's intriguing. I 121 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 8: love Jerry and believe in Jerry. But after you hang 122 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 8: up and process it and think about it, it's intriguing. 123 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 8: But I love Boulder and everything there is about our team, 124 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 8: the coaches, our student body, and the community. 125 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: End quote. He's not leaving Colorado. 126 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 7: It would be really fun, though I'm not gonna lie. 127 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: It's not real. 128 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 8: It'd be fun as far as just roller coaster without 129 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 8: the harness coming down and it's like, wow. 130 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: This is really dangerous and I might die, but we're 131 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: gonna have fun. 132 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 7: It would be a really fun offseason. 133 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 10: However, I think your excitement would kind of roller coaster 134 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 10: all the way down when it comes to, like, you know, 135 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:54,799 Speaker 10: a week one, like oh god. 136 00:06:55,080 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 7: Gonna play, Oh this is happening, This is happening. It 137 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 7: would be a fascinating officer. 138 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 8: Well, first, let's start with this because irs and and Josh, 139 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 8: you guys weren't on the emergency pod, and I know 140 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 8: that you were agreeents that we agreed that I would 141 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 8: bring we would bring Mike McCarthy back. My thing was 142 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 8: all four of us, all of us were. My thing 143 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 8: was and that were we wanted that we wanted wanted. 144 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: Yes, I was. I did not think he was going 145 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: to come. I don't. I think you and I were 146 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: in the same agreeance there. 147 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 8: Yeah, I was going to and this is where it 148 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 8: and I'm hearing the same whispers, So I'm going to 149 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 8: go ahead and say this is confirmed. So the reports 150 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 8: initially were that the Cowboys and McCarthy were kind of 151 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 8: not at odds, but they were not on the same 152 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 8: page as far as length of contract is concerned. If 153 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 8: that's the case, I understand what McCarthy did. 154 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: It. 155 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 8: I would not have given him more than a two 156 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 8: year deal, and I said that. I said that, but 157 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 8: I also said in the same breath, he's not going 158 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 8: to accept the whole year deal or a one year 159 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 8: deal or a one year deal. So it sounds like 160 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 8: more or less that's kind of what happened. The Cowboys 161 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 8: approached him with something less than a four or five 162 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 8: year deal. McCarthy was like, I want a four or 163 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 8: five year deal, and if you're not going to give 164 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 8: me that, then I'm going to have to head out. 165 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 8: And Jered even were like, all right, So the next 166 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 8: uber is coming in about twenty So for me, it 167 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 8: was a McCarthy decision. 168 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: Both sides wanted it to work. 169 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 8: Jerry Jones, they wanted him back, but McCarthy wanted more years, 170 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 8: and even I was not comfortable with another four or 171 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 8: five years. 172 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: So not about money, It was about tenure. It was 173 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: about tenure, Okay, I think it was about you. 174 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 8: Yeah, because I do believe McCarthy was probably, especially given 175 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 8: who his agent is, was probably looking for a pay 176 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 8: increase because inflation is a thing too. 177 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 1: From twenty twenty to twenty twenty five. 178 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 8: Absolutely absolutely it is, so I can almost guarantee McCarthy 179 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 8: was looking for a bump and pay. But I think 180 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 8: the priority for McCarthy was stability over the pay versus 181 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 8: someone like a Ben Johnson, who, yes, Ben Johnson wants 182 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 8: some stability, but Ben Johnson wants the megabag. Also, people 183 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 8: need to understand when you say Mike McCarthy, you're saying 184 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 8: every other coach that is under his own umbrella. That's 185 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 8: what I don't believe that people are understanding about these negotiations. 186 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 8: In these conversations, he's not just negotiating on behalf of 187 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 8: Mike McCarthy and Mike McCarthy's household. It is literally every 188 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 8: other coordinator, every other position coach, every other assistant, strength coach, everybody, everybody, everybody, 189 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,199 Speaker 8: everybody three rs. That's who he's speaking on behalf of 190 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 8: so even outside of himself where he I can't speak 191 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 8: for him right, but he may have been willing to 192 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 8: take a lesser year contract, but he I don't believe 193 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 8: he was willing to put his staff. 194 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: In that situation as well. 195 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 7: Again again, by the way, just again, can you get 196 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 7: into this year already with it being on? 197 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 10: But why would he want to go through that same 198 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 10: roller coaster again with the same questions, the same type 199 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 10: every year. 200 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 7: It's the spotlight is. 201 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 10: On him yet again with a longer term deal. You 202 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 10: don't have that spotlight as hot on you for this season. 203 00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 10: You know, it's at least it lets you breathe for one. 204 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 8: Well, he's faced something every year exactly outside of the 205 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 8: first year, which was a COVID year, He's face something 206 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 8: every year. He said he brought dan Quinn on. They 207 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 8: had success. The question was, oh dan Quinn gonna be here? 208 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 8: Is Jane Quinn gonna take his job or they gonna 209 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 8: swap right, then it was Keller more conversation right. 210 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 1: Oh, like every year it was something right, every year 211 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: was a threat to him. 212 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 7: Comes with the title man, yeah, weight. 213 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 8: And with that comes Okay, once it comes time to negotiating, 214 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 8: I now need to roll all of that up and 215 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 8: turn that into dollar signs so that I can bear 216 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 8: that weight. 217 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: Agree. 218 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 8: And we've said it a hundred times. Free agency, it 219 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 8: doesn't matter if it's a player, assistant coach, or a 220 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 8: head coach. Free agency is a two way street. And 221 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 8: this is not was not a Jason Garrett situation that 222 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 8: were not teams interested in interviewing Jason Garrett as he 223 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,599 Speaker 8: was exiting the Cowboys organization. There are teams interested in 224 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 8: bringing on Micha McCarthy as he exits the situation. So 225 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 8: that means that he was able to walk in and 226 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 8: have some demand and if his demands were it met 227 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 8: his deal breakers is non negotiables, and if they couldn't 228 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 8: meet his non negotiables, then you get where we are 229 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 8: right now, which is the Cowboys. 230 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: You're looking for their ninth head coach. 231 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 10: And just really quickly, when it comes to the Cowboys 232 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 10: denying Mike McCarthy interview with the Chicago Bears earlier last week. 233 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 10: To me, there's a lot of backlash from that move 234 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 10: because now people are like. 235 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 7: Well, why did you let him? You know, because they 236 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 7: were if why would you why would you give them 237 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:27,599 Speaker 7: that opportunity? 238 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 10: Like to me, that that's a silly argument at this 239 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 10: point to say, after the fact, of course, hindsight is 240 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 10: twenty twenty, but of course you don't let him interview 241 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 10: because you're still in negotiations at that point. 242 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: Yep. 243 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 10: Granted you're not in contractual negotiations, but you're still trying 244 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 10: to figure out what the future of your team is. 245 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,959 Speaker 7: Why would you give Chicago the opportunity to interview this 246 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 7: guy before you need to? This is a business man. Yeah, 247 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 7: people are like, oh, petty by the front office, that's stupid. 248 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I just think that's it's people trying to 249 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 6: get clicks, not saying. 250 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 10: That the Cowboys have handled everything correctly this offseason by 251 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 10: any means, yes, by any means yes. 252 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 7: However, in that to that point, why would you do it? 253 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 7: There's no benefit to you to do to doing that. 254 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 7: Wait a week, bro, it's a week the offseason. We 255 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 7: got a long way to go. 256 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 5: Nobody's getting hung out to drive. From a McCarthy's standpoint 257 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 5: or a McCarthy's staff standpoint, because he waited a week 258 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 5: to negotiate the rest of this contract, that's just playing something. 259 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: The only thing. 260 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:26,839 Speaker 6: Nobody's left out the drive. 261 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: There was no petty means in that capacity. 262 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 8: I agree, because it's just the Kyle and I have 263 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 8: some business to discuss and we're sitting in a room. 264 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 8: It's just Mono with Mono, and Isaiah has some business 265 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 8: that he wants to talk to Cal about and he 266 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 8: comes in. Yeah, taps on the glass and want to 267 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 8: be hold on a second. Let me let me see 268 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,719 Speaker 8: what we all finished before Kyle and you start having 269 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,199 Speaker 8: these conversations, cause I don't know what you're going to 270 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 8: say to Cal and that might completely derail what. 271 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 7: He and I the business that we're trying to So 272 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 7: just hold off. 273 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 8: So that didn't negatively impact McCarthy at all, But it 274 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 8: did negatively impact the cowboys by waiting that we to 275 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 8: part wait. No, that's different reason being because example Ben Johnson, 276 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 8: Aaron Glenn, those requests windows closed in that week that 277 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 8: it took you to decide, or it took McCarthy and 278 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 8: you to decide you were going to part ways, and 279 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 8: now you can't talk to those two guys until after 280 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,599 Speaker 8: their season concludes, and if their season takes them to 281 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 8: the super Bowl, then you got to wait until after 282 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 8: the super Bowl. 283 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 5: It's almost like before the final game, before the season 284 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 5: was even over, that there was a podcast that outlined 285 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 5: the importance of making a decision, what might one way 286 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 5: or the other? 287 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: I just I think there was one. It was called 288 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: Talking Cowboys. Yeah, that one the most of that pod. Really. 289 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 6: I tried to stand it. 290 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: Now, I wasn't. 291 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 7: I tried to stand on a table. Nobody heard me though. 292 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: It's fine. Isaiah's making faces. I need it, Coy Isaiah, 293 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: is he back? 294 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 6: Do you make the trip back for Vegas? 295 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 8: I just want people to understand that when we start 296 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 8: talking about coach McCarthy and the leverage that he gained 297 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 8: after understanding that there was going to be a market 298 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 8: for him, negotiations get a little bit more more fair, right, 299 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 8: and then the tides kind of turn a little bit, 300 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 8: and there's a lot of a lot of games that 301 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 8: are played and negotiating, So we don't know, we don't 302 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 8: know how these conversations went. 303 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: We don't know who was taking who we don't know 304 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: who was taking the time. 305 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 8: It very well might have been McCarthy drawing it out 306 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 8: to ensure that they couldn't talk to her. 307 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: You never know. 308 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 8: There's all kinds of different leverage moves, and this chess 309 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 8: when you start talking about contracts, this chess man. I've 310 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 8: dealt with this for the forever many years now. All right, 311 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 8: y me, let me go ahead and draw this out 312 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 8: a little bit, because again I am not Jason Garrett, 313 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 8: and I got options, and and to turn down offer 314 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 8: that's in front of you. 315 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: You know that there's an option that you can take it. 316 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: What Chris Rock say, only faith l options? Yeah for real. 317 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 5: So it all kind of boils down to what happened 318 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 5: in twenty twenty four, I mean the season that was 319 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 5: you were given a one chance, given a one year 320 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 5: opportunity to try and take this team to the level 321 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 5: you were anticipated to take them in the previous years, the. 322 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: Twelve and five, twelve and five, twelve and five. 323 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 5: That was the that was the bar, that was, let's 324 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 5: make it at the beginning of the year exactly, and 325 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 5: you did not get there, safe to say, so that 326 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 5: was part of the decision, was the one in three 327 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 5: record in playoffs, the way you lost to Green Bay 328 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 5: was a legitimate contributor to the decision making process. And really, 329 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 5: if the front office was not reluctant. 330 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: To bring back Mike McCarthy, Mike McCarthy would. 331 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 5: Still be here playing and simple everybody that's saying, and 332 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 5: I completely agree with how it happened where it's length 333 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 5: of the deal and there's just a disconnect there. If 334 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 5: there was any sort of buy in from the front 335 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 5: office that Mike McCarthy was indeed the right person for 336 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 5: the job, he would still. 337 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: Be here because they would they would have made the 338 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: deal possible. 339 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 5: But there was a reluctant side from the front office. 340 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 5: There was a reluctant side from Mike McCarthy, and because 341 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 5: of that, that's why they ended up parting ways. Mike 342 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 5: McCarthy did not tell Jerry Jones in the front office, 343 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 5: nor if anything. Jerry Jones said, it's on our terms. 344 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 5: If anything, if you're coming back, it is going to 345 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 5: be on our terms, And it wasn't on there. 346 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 8: They both said the same thing, yes, but correct and 347 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 8: every windows and whatever came after that. 348 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: Ellipses, that's what that's that's. 349 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 10: What came to the crossroads. Well, that's why he's not 350 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 10: here one hundred percent. I think whenever we were talking 351 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 10: about him after the Bucks came and we were all 352 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 10: very much in agreement, like, all right, he needs to 353 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 10: come back, like that's that was the That. 354 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: Was the final hourrah. 355 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 7: That was the final hurrah. 356 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 10: That was you know, you saw the team galvin Ies 357 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 10: behind him and like all of the positive things that 358 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,080 Speaker 10: were saying. However, I think I had said, or one 359 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 10: of us had said, after that game, it's like, okay, 360 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 10: but if you do if you play like you did 361 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 10: against Baltimore, if you play like you did against the 362 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 10: Story against UH, for any of these last two or 363 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 10: three games, right, I would reconsider the thought that we're 364 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:14,199 Speaker 10: having now, which was like. 365 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 7: Why would you go back? Why would you go back? 366 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 10: And then Phill And then Philly happened, and then that 367 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 10: that happened, how it happened. You fought against the Commanders, 368 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 10: which was a decent game, you've lost at the end. 369 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 10: I don't think that necessarily played into the idea of 370 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 10: it all. It was that Philly game that really broke 371 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 10: it for me and ultimately for me, if if it 372 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 10: were if it were up to me, I would have 373 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 10: brought McCarthy back, but I would have demanded he not 374 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 10: call plays That. 375 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 1: Would maybe, but that would have been a. 376 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 10: Sticky point for me because time and time again in 377 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 10: the red zone, when you saw his situational awareness when 378 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 10: it came to the red zone, I had no confidence 379 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 10: that we were going to score touchdowns. 380 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 7: It's like, okay, this is the Brandon Aubrey show. 381 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 10: Now once you get past you when you can ridiculous, man, 382 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 10: ridiculous To me, that is a yeah.

Whenever these conversations come about, 495 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 8: I'm usually the the guy that's the odd ball, you know. 496 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 8: I'm the one who says something to everybody's like you're crazy, 497 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 8: and then, like you, later on, you find out that 498 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 8: the person is getting interviewed. 499 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: Last year, my crazy take true? What was Rex Ryan? 500 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,719 Speaker 1: I said, Rex Ryan was should be the defensive coordinator 501 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 1: here last still on television, He's still on. 502 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 8: Television, but I still stand behind that. I feel like 503 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 8: he should have been a defensive coordinator this past year. 504 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: Are you going to say it? For this year? He's 505 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 1: going to I think he's going to New York. Yeah, 506 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 1: I think. I think. I think he's good. 507 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 5: But he's he's so vocal about that. On the on 508 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 5: the broadcast, like yeah there was. They were showing a 509 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 5: play of Josh Allen going into the Bills game and 510 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 5: Josh Allen threw it like on a dime off balance 511 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 5: deep into the New York Jets secondary and he goes 512 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 5: that going to happen next year, hopefully I'm there, Like 513 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 5: in the middle of his analysis. 514 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 7: I feel like he has ten toes in the ground. 515 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: And probably he likes toast. But yeah, in the game, 516 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: suit what you did there? So this year my hot tape, right, 517 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: I'm not a hot take guy. 518 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 8: Last year was Rex Ryan. Obviously that did not pan out. 519 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 8: But following that comment, Kyle laughed at me. I did 520 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 8: on air, But then we found out days later that 521 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 8: he was being interviewed and considered. 522 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 1: Did he get interviewed? He did. I don't think he did. 523 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 5: I think I thought they've just talked money and he 524 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 5: said no. If that was from his part, there was 525 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 5: never an official he. 526 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 8: Lost to Mistah. Granted, I'm not gonna sit here and 527 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 8: see the wrong decisions. 528 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: I'm not conceiting he was considered. 529 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 8: He was considered for the position BOO this year and 530 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 8: now with the Mike McCarthy, and it was obviously following 531 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 8: the last game. On the first word, I said that 532 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 8: I don't believe that Mike McCarthy was going to return, 533 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 8: but I've been very adamant that I was hoping that 534 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 8: he was going to return. 535 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: Unfortunately he's not here. I think that I don't think 536 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: this will happen. This is my who I think should come. 537 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 7: In it's a good feeling. 538 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: If it's a good feeling, I think. I think I 539 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:26,159 Speaker 1: think John Gruden is the black sheep. I think he's. 540 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 8: Obviously there's a lot of speculation around, you know, the 541 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 8: stuff that he had that went down. 542 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: That caused him to lose his job originally. 543 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,400 Speaker 8: I think that stuff's kind of getting swept under the rug, 544 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 8: like things happened to do. Yeah, I think when you 545 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 8: think about somebody who's going to come into this organization 546 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 8: with everything that you have to bear as a head 547 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 8: coach here, I think coach McCarthy felt the weight of 548 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 8: a lot of that as well. I don't think that 549 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,880 Speaker 8: he necessarily wanted to do all the things that came 550 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 8: with being the head coach of the Cowboys, but he 551 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 8: did them right because that's what the job and you know, required. 552 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 8: But I don't think it was a willingness. I think 553 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 8: John Gruden will welcome all of those things. I think 554 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 8: John Gruden is a great spokesperson in terms of forward facing. 555 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 8: I think he can stand on business at all times. 556 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 8: I don't I think he can handle the media very well. 557 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 1: Very well. 558 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 7: He's been in the media. 559 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 8: He's been in the media prior to that. He knew 560 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 8: how to handle the media. He just knows how to 561 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 8: win as well. I like his his grit and the 562 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 8: determination in terms of what when you start talking about 563 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 8: a coach and what everybody underneath him embodies that that 564 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 8: team embodies the spirit of the coach. Right, we talked 565 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 8: about a dan Quinn Right, the whole, the whole state 566 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 8: of this of this team changed when dan Quinn came 567 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 8: out because people started embodying what DQ had. Now you're 568 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 8: seeing it in Washington. I think John Gruden is one 569 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 8: of those guys. I don't think that you're allowed to 570 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 8: be soft and allowed to not have high effort if 571 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 8: you're on. 572 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: A John Gruden team. 573 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 8: I think that's just one of the things that's just 574 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 8: you just know, right in terms So that's culture, right, 575 00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 8: somebody who's got to bring a culture with them. You're 576 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,919 Speaker 8: not wondering if they're going to establish a culture. You're 577 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 8: not wondering if they're capable of it. You're not wondering 578 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 8: if they're just a good play caller. You know you're 579 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 8: gonna get culture. You know you're gonna get disciplined. You 580 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 8: know you're gonna get wins, right, and you know you're 581 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 8: gonna get somebody who can handle the weight of the star. 582 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 8: Those are all things that I believe that John Gruden possesses. 583 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 8: Whether it happens or not, I don't know, but that's 584 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 8: somebody that I know for sure to say, Hey, that 585 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 8: dude right there can handle being the head coach of 586 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 8: the Dallas Colbal. 587 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 7: You can handle the weight Isaiah right now for sure. 588 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 8: Oh yeah, sir, hand up, Okay, fantastic points.

So I 627 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 8: got John Gruten in there, and then you look at 628 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 8: the in house guys Mike Zimmer, Al Harris Bones Fossil, 629 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 8: and then you look at the collegiate guys. 630 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: So go check it out. 631 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 8: Sure, So right now we're talking about the box of 632 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 8: the nflers is what I call them. John Gruton is 633 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 8: an nfler. For me, I'll see you at John Gruton. 634 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: I'll raise you. Pete Carroll in that box, all for 635 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: it in that box. So for me, I don't. 636 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 8: Disagree with anything that you're saying as far as Gruton 637 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 8: is concerned, but I feel like turn the knob just 638 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 8: a little bit, and I'm more in on Pete Carroll 639 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 8: than I am on John. I understand that, especially when 640 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 8: you're talking about more recent success at the NFL level. 641 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 8: Also proficient with how to handle the media. You talk 642 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 8: about someone who's been under the brightest of lights, whether 643 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 8: it be at the USC program, and not just USC, 644 00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 8: but the USC program that's he orchestrated, came through that 645 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 8: controversy mostly clean, went to Seattle, won a lot of games, 646 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 8: won a Super Bowl, helped design that the Legion of 647 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 8: Boom with Dan Quinn. So you got, you know, a 648 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 8: taste of what Pete Carroll's tree can do for you. 649 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 8: Why not go get the root of the actual tree. 650 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 10: To that point, though, I am I'm curious though. If 651 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 10: Will McClay is staying that to me informs me whether 652 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 10: or not I go with Gruden or if I go 653 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 10: with Carol. If it's Gruden, I need Will McClay because 654 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 10: I've seen what Gruden has done as far as draft prospects, 655 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 10: draft picks, picking guys that are very flashy. Will McLay 656 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 10: has found diamonds in the rough, and you don't have 657 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 10: as many draft picks as you would like going into 658 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 10: this draft. 659 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 7: Of course, that fourth round pick. 660 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:52,959 Speaker 1: Is, yes, the big one. 661 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 5: They've got a lot of cop picks coming, because that's 662 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 5: true the lack of offseason they had last year. 663 00:30:57,760 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 6: But that fourth round pick missing. 664 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 7: That is but you're gonna miss that. 665 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 1: I love where you're going with this finish up. 666 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 10: But with Pete Carroll, I think you do have an 667 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 10: opportunity to still be successful as recruiting. 668 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 7: Because of recruiting, people want to play for him. 669 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 10: I think that is a huge tell whether if those 670 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 10: are your two candidates, which way you're leaning. If you 671 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 10: don't have Will McLay, I don't want John gun in 672 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 10: that case. 673 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 8: How about this? I don't why is it a situation? 674 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 8: And you're right, but I don't feel like it should 675 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 8: be a situation where you have to choose. Again, we're 676 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 8: just talking about this box. We'll get to the Ben 677 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 8: Johnson's and the other in the Kellen Mooreris we'll talk 678 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 8: about that, but just speaking in this box, why not 679 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 8: dragon Ball? 680 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: Why not do a fusion dance? 681 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 8: Pete Carroll and Will McLay fantastic recruiting, fantastic scouting, doubt 682 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 8: Why force yourself into a situation where you have to 683 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 8: choose between one and the other? 684 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: YEA, just fuse. 685 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 8: I've played for Pete Carroll and heruited you, and he 686 00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 8: recruited me heavily harder than any body. 687 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: I don't I don't see for sure it didn't work. 688 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: But my first. 689 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,719 Speaker 8: My first day of practice in Seattle after he has 690 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 8: signed me, was he came up to me a stretch 691 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 8: line and said, I told you I was gonna get you. 692 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 8: I don't see Pete Carroll living in Texas. Wow, I 693 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 8: think that's a geographic decision for Pete Carroll. What I mean, honestly, 694 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 8: you're saying this as somebody who knows him personally, but 695 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 8: got you got to give him. 696 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 7: But things have changed for Pete Carroll. 697 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 8: Things have changed, Things have changed, but there is still 698 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 8: a job on the west coast. M miss what's the 699 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 8: west coast? 700 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 6: Vegas? 701 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 1: Yeah? Is that considered the west Coast's definitely west coast. 702 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 6: I mean like three hours. 703 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 1: Drive to l A. 704 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 5: Are we on the bulf of Mexico in Dallas because 705 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 5: they're about the same amount of drive. 706 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 7: Calveston's right there. 707 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: So I don't know. 708 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 8: I mean saying I think he's more Las Vegas than 709 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 8: he is Dallas. That's not to say that the Cowboys 710 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 8: want to talk to him. That's not to say that 711 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 8: he wouldn't work here. I think he would. I think 712 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 8: Coach Carroll can work anywhere because he's a He's a 713 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 8: culture guy. Right, you talked about the DQ's of the 714 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 8: world and all these they came from his tree. He 715 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 8: can make it happen, for sure. I just think that 716 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 8: if he had a choice, I think he would prefer 717 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 8: Vegas over Dallas. Now here's what I think could overcome that. 718 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 8: What we talked about yesterday on the Emergency Pod. This 719 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 8: is a Cowboys team that has cornerstone pieces, yes, already 720 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 8: in place. You got your franchise quarterbacks. He's an All 721 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,479 Speaker 8: Pro and a former MVP front runner. You got your 722 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 8: franchise wide receiver record center in Ceedee Lamb. You got 723 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 8: an all world generational pass rusher that you're in all 724 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 8: for all intents and purposes. You're about to give him 725 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 8: the super bag. Okay, you have two All Pro corners, 726 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 8: so for to Marvin Overshoon once he comes back from injury, 727 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 8: you have Bandre and you got an All Pro kicker. 728 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 8: You got an All Pro returner. So yeah, Cayle made 729 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 8: a wonderful point yesterday. Spots eleven through fifty three, there's 730 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 8: a lot to be worked out there, Spots one through 731 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 8: ten or eleven. Vegas can't boast that there's a lot 732 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 8: of teams in the Chicago can't boast that. 733 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: Jacksonville can't boast at New Orleans can't boast that. 734 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 8: So if if the breaking or the deal breaker for 735 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 8: Pete is simply Texas versus Illinois versus Florida, I can 736 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 8: overcome that. 737 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: I'm saying, look at what we have and what they 738 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 1: don't have. It's not just that I. 739 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 8: Understand how and height of a relationship and those state 740 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 8: texts that Coach Carroll had with Snyder when he was 741 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 8: in Seattle. 742 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 1: Those guys were like they were like attached at the hill. 743 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 1: They agreed. So understand how in symmetry he has to 744 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: be with the gym or Will McLay. Will McLay, maybe 745 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: the symmetry just needs to exist with Will McClay. Right. 746 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,319 Speaker 1: So so that's the nfler's box. 747 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 8: In the NFL's box, we got John Grutin, we got 748 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,439 Speaker 8: who do we say, Pete Carroll. But then of course 749 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 8: the elephant in the room is the coordinator's box. So 750 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 8: now Ben Johnson, Aaron Glenn, Kellen Moore, who that's a 751 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 8: big one. He's a front runner, whether you like it 752 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,840 Speaker 8: or not. And I'm going to say that I'm not 753 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 8: in on that, but speaking from the thought process of 754 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,840 Speaker 8: the guys upstairs, Kellen Moore is absolutely from. 755 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 6: He I know you don't like it, and you don't 756 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 6: see it. 757 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: I don't either, and I don't see it, but they 758 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: see it, but I. 759 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 8: Just I don't When you start speaking on the Ben Johnson's, 760 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 8: the Aaron Glens, I think Top Monkin, I think Aaron Glenn. 761 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,800 Speaker 8: You have a better idea of the culture that you 762 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 8: would have underneath Aaron Glenn than you would of the 763 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 8: culture of Ben Johnson. I don't know him well enough 764 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 8: to speak on him, but I don't I've never heard 765 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 8: of culture or the environment that he's created. There you 766 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 8: hear about his play calling, I haven't heard much about 767 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 8: the culture that he's kind of created. 768 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 6: Yeah, so he's a. 769 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 5: Little bit more soft spoken and timid than Dan Campbell's 770 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 5: not a little a little yeah, I mean, like today 771 00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 5: one A lot of times coordinators will elevate to the 772 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 5: inner level. 773 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 8: So for sure, that's so that's my That's always my fear. 774 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 8: That's always my fear when it comes to head coaches, 775 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 8: is you could be a hell of a play caller, 776 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 8: a hell of a coordinator. I don't mean that you're 777 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 8: gonna be a great head coach. Yeah, right, And if 778 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 8: you're soft spoken. Through my experience and for what I've 779 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 8: seen around the league, even just the coaches that I 780 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 8: had and the coaches that i've seen now, quiet and 781 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 8: timid or not, whatever you might want to call it 782 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,760 Speaker 8: as a great play caller. You have to manage the coaches. 783 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 8: Your job is to coach the coaches. That's what a 784 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 8: head coach's job is, coach the coaches and manage everything else. 785 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 8: You're the executive other coaches. I don't know Ben Johnson's 786 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 8: leadership skills. I don't I play with with Aaron Gliss. 787 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 8: I have an idea of that. I don't have an 788 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 8: idea of who's the other person? You got said killing Moore, Benja. 789 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 1: I mean killing Moore. I don't see. I'm Kellen Moore 790 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: is a good play I don't see him as a 791 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 1: lead leader man. I just don't. So that's when I 792 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: think of a head coach. That's why Gruden pops. 793 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 8: Up immediately to immediately to me, I think, obviously, Ron Rivera, 794 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 8: that's gonna go about I pushed back there from a 795 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 8: lot of people. But you talk about leader of men, 796 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:19,879 Speaker 8: leader of men, that's what you're trying to come in. Yeah, 797 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 8: I feel you, But like that's what you're coming in 798 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 8: and asking of a coach. Yeah you want to win, Yeah, okay, 799 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 8: but what goes into that, right? Who's your staff that 800 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:31,400 Speaker 8: you're bringing in? Do you have command of those coaches. 801 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 8: Are you going to be able to tell those coaches 802 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 8: this is the culture that we're running, and they're gonna say, okay, right, 803 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 8: those are all things. Does your strength and conditioning program 804 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:41,359 Speaker 8: match up with your style of play? 805 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: Right? These are all things that go into that leadership. 806 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,360 Speaker 8: And if you don't have a good sense of that 807 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 8: person coming in with that all wrapped up, now you're hoping. 808 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: Now you're guessing.

We had a conversation 895 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,440 Speaker 5: yesterday of what it would take to bring Sean McVay 896 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 5: into the building, and a lot of that results around 897 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:54,399 Speaker 5: a first round pick. 898 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,879 Speaker 1: I'd give it up, I know you would. Would La 899 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:57,360 Speaker 1: give it up? 900 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 7: Would they give up Sean McVay up at the second. 901 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 8: As of a couple of months ago? Inside I had 902 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 8: Sean want it. He still is open to get He 903 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:06,920 Speaker 8: wants to get out of there. 904 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 5: Sure, I'm looking at that game last night. I think 905 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 5: that's an absolute pipe trick. Oh yeah, I don't know 906 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 5: what they have a thing anymore. La doesn't want to 907 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:16,360 Speaker 5: get rid of him. He he may not one out anymore. 908 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 5: He may one out, who knows, But it's really not. 909 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,840 Speaker 1: Up to him at this point, this after next weekend. 910 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, I I just don't think it's going to be 911 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:25,440 Speaker 6: a thing. 912 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 1: I don't think it's highly probable. I think it's impossible. 913 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 1: I would impossible. 914 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,840 Speaker 5: I would stake a bet like I would do a 915 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,959 Speaker 5: hot Chip challenge if that ends up happening, I would 916 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 5: one hundred. 917 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I'm not good with spicy, Okay, so 918 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 1: I would do it. I would die. So that's your 919 00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:44,400 Speaker 1: strike through it at the probability. 920 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 6: I'm striking through Sean McVay, it's not happening. 921 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:48,800 Speaker 1: Happening. 922 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 8: I'm striking through Bill Belichick. Yeah, got a job number one, 923 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 8: he has a job. But yeah, things can pivot and 924 00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 8: things can change. Like Isaia said, nothing impossible. 925 00:42:58,440 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 13: But. 926 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: Stop it. Jerry Jones is not going to pay the 927 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 1: ten million. 928 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 8: Dollars it would take to buy Bill Belichick out and 929 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 8: then pay the exorbitant salary that would then be required 930 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,239 Speaker 8: by Bill Belichick, who also, by the way, what's that 931 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 8: sea word that Janet used to say? 932 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 1: Control? Oh okay, Yeah, it's not happening, right. 933 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 8: For the same reason that Jerry Jones is not going 934 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,240 Speaker 8: to pay eight plus million dollars to buy Deon Sanders 935 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 8: out of the contract to Color. 936 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:26,280 Speaker 1: It's not going to happen. So strike through Bill Belichick. 937 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,880 Speaker 8: I think that he's really setting up himself for the 938 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 8: University of North Carolina and that's just going to be 939 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:31,000 Speaker 8: a thing. 940 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 1: So strike that, and for me an add on, strike. 941 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:40,440 Speaker 8: Jason Whitten as a viable head coaching candidate. Okay, we 942 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 8: talk about lack of experience and how and I agree 943 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:47,239 Speaker 8: with you. You don't necessarily have time for a guy 944 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 8: who doesn't have the NFL experience. But there's some You 945 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 8: can make an excuse for Ben Johnson, you can make 946 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 8: an excuse for that. Erin Glynn, you can make an 947 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 8: excuse for that. If they want to make an excuse 948 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:57,719 Speaker 8: for Keller Moore, they will find a reason to make 949 00:43:57,719 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 8: an excuse for Kella Moore. But what you can't just 950 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:02,360 Speaker 8: is pulling a guy up who has only two to 951 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 8: three years of coaching experience period, and all of that 952 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,880 Speaker 8: is at the high school in Jason Whitt. So strip 953 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 8: through that. But I would love to have Jason Witten 954 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,439 Speaker 8: as a position coach. We talked about what that would 955 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 8: mean as far as the shake up that's coming within 956 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:16,280 Speaker 8: the assistant coaching ranks. 957 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:17,479 Speaker 1: Let me be clear. 958 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,360 Speaker 8: If hiring Jason Witten as a position coach costs you 959 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:24,000 Speaker 8: Lounda Wells, then it's not worth the hire. If hiring 960 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,959 Speaker 8: Jason Whitten keeps Lounda Welles, but maybe you put Lounda 961 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 8: Wells in a different position, like an offensive line coach, 962 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 8: which he's done before. But that also allows Lounda to 963 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 8: still be in the building helping Jason Witten with the 964 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 8: tight ends again fusion dance. 965 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:35,840 Speaker 1: I'm with that. 966 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 7: Well, what about the people that are i mean, obviously, 967 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 7: Jason Witten. 968 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 10: Is a beloved figure in Cowboy's history, right, what about 969 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 10: the people that are saying, well, look at what Dan 970 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:44,799 Speaker 10: Campbell's done. 971 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 7: Look at a former player turn head. 972 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:48,280 Speaker 1: Coach and in a bottle. 973 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 8: And also you have to Isaiah made a wonderful point. 974 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 8: I'm going to circle right back to this.

He needs more grooming and it starts 1013 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 8: with coming from high school. Give him a position to job, 1014 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:33,400 Speaker 8: and then let him work his way up over the 1015 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 8: next several. 1016 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 5: For every Dan Campbell, and that is more so the 1017 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,799 Speaker 5: exception and not the rule. For every Dan Campbell, there's 1018 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:45,439 Speaker 5: also a draw Mayo. Yes, there's also Jeff Saturday. There's 1019 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 5: guys that are making that quick transition in the league 1020 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:52,319 Speaker 5: that don't have success because of whatever parameters they're given, 1021 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 5: the roster they're given, and all of those elements. 1022 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:57,800 Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday in Indianapolis, no where to go. 1023 00:46:58,320 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 5: He was the head coach there for a hot set 1024 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 5: after that. Yeah, he was just on the broadcast with 1025 00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:06,400 Speaker 5: Everybuddy restaurant. 1026 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:06,839 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1027 00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 8: Again, Dan Campbell was lightning in the bottle and he 1028 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 8: had they gave him the control, Yeah, to turn that. 1029 00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:14,000 Speaker 1: So he's the leader of men. 1030 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, you gotta have the right person. 1031 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 1: That he was the right person. It was everything, no, 1032 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: everything else. 1033 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 8: But I'm saying, like, the one thing is, like, you 1034 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:25,880 Speaker 8: have to command a room full of men, and they 1035 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 8: have to listen to you and believe in you, and 1036 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 8: whatever you're pitching, they have to literally embody it. 1037 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 1: You have to be willing to write. 1038 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 8: Like, I don't think people understand how difficult that is 1039 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 8: to walk in a room and tell everybody what your 1040 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 8: vision is and everybody says, okay, I'm on board. 1041 00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's not the easiest thing in the world. 1042 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:47,239 Speaker 7: A lot of people don't want to hear you out. 1043 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:51,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, your natural instinct is to be like trying to 1044 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 8: hear this cat. That's your natural instinct. But then you 1045 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:55,400 Speaker 8: have to sit back and you gotta watch how this 1046 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:58,280 Speaker 8: person moves, How does this person operate? Is this person consistent? 1047 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: Do they waiver? Right? Do they are they passionate? Do 1048 00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 1: they love they? 1049 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 8: Do they genuinely love everybody? How do they treat the janitor? 1050 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:08,359 Speaker 8: Like all these things matter, right, that's all culture. That's 1051 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 8: all culture, man, And like you don't just walk into that, right, 1052 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 8: and especially when you've been in the league as a 1053 00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:15,520 Speaker 8: culture coordinator for a number of years. You have a 1054 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 8: body and work to look back and be like, yeah, 1055 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,960 Speaker 8: I don't know who followed you, Is anybody following you? 1056 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 1: Or did you just do a good job calling plays? 1057 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:23,320 Speaker 14: No? 1058 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:23,759 Speaker 1: I see. 1059 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 8: And that's why if you're going to go into let's 1060 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:29,239 Speaker 8: say the coordinator's pool, right, I find it difficult to 1061 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 8: believe that, and I could be proven wrong. 1062 00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:31,839 Speaker 1: We'll see. 1063 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:33,880 Speaker 8: I find it difficult to believe that Kela Moore can 1064 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 8: walk into a room full of NFL players defense and 1065 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 8: offense and get an immediate buy in like a guy 1066 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:40,880 Speaker 8: like a Pete Carroll or like a John Gruden. But 1067 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,600 Speaker 8: if you're looking at coordinators, you look at what Demiko 1068 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,439 Speaker 8: Ryan's was able to do with the Texans. But that's 1069 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 8: because that's the type of aura. When Demiko Ryans walked 1070 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 8: in the room, and he's such a player's coach buy in. 1071 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 1: Can't give an example. 1072 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:57,400 Speaker 8: Yeah, And I don't know how how smart this is 1073 00:48:57,480 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 8: me to say so in off season list. Upcoming off 1074 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:03,360 Speaker 8: this previous offseason, I was doing Rise to Vote. I 1075 00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:05,640 Speaker 8: was working with a nonprofit organization that goes and talks 1076 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 8: and presents all the voting information. Right, these are all. 1077 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:10,759 Speaker 8: This is how you do it is how you sign up. 1078 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 8: This is all the information that you guys need to know. 1079 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 8: While I was doing that in affiliation with the NFL. 1080 00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 8: So there's a number of organizations, no number of teams 1081 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:17,720 Speaker 8: that I went. 1082 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 1: And presented to. The Bears is one of the organizations. 1083 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 8: When I went in there and I talked to when 1084 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:25,560 Speaker 8: I talked to the team, I was introduced by Ibra 1085 00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 8: Flus and I was like, no, like just just really 1086 00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:32,480 Speaker 8: just in the ten minutes that I was that, I 1087 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:36,280 Speaker 8: wasn't sitting there. I think he'd be a great coordinator again, 1088 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:40,399 Speaker 8: and he was best, but coming from a former player 1089 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 8: who retired twelve years ago, right, I was in that room, 1090 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 8: I was like, not a head coach saying it, no 1091 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 8: disrespect to the man, but like, you're not commanding these 1092 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 8: guys just from him, how he how he addressed the team. 1093 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:53,960 Speaker 8: In my head, I kept it to myself, right, and 1094 00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 8: obviously that's worked his way out, but I knew from them. 1095 00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:58,120 Speaker 1: I was like, he's not going to be able to 1096 00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 1: get these guys on board. Yeah, let the aura tough immediately. 1097 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:04,439 Speaker 1: That's just as me, that's me sitting in a room 1098 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:07,720 Speaker 1: as a former player and be like he doesn't. He doesn't. 1099 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:09,600 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean, it doesn't mean he can't call plays, 1100 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:10,840 Speaker 1: he can't command. 1101 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:15,799 Speaker 6: Yeah, Yeah, we'll see lots to talk about. 1102 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:17,319 Speaker 1: This will not be the final time we talk about 1103 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 1: this head coaching vacant.
