Now man the old the old character 0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:19.880 they had for the first for their first logo, Cowboy Joe. 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:26.840 Did he look like that? Not quite? He didn't have 0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:31.679 solar didn't think so. Thanks. So this is the Christmas 0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:37.079 Boy Joe. I'm sorry, this is the Mickey Monkey. Guys, 0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:42.600 we are Chris. Bill's got Bill's got his Christmas decorations 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:45.120 behind him. So I figured I needed something, you know 0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:49.720 I do? That's good, all right. My wife's mad at 0:02:49.720 --> 0:02:52.360 me because we couldn't put up Christmas decorations because I 0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:57.160 haven't finished the ceiling yet. So that's that's still that 0:02:57.280 --> 0:03:01.239 problem over here. I got the popcorn off the ceiling. 0:03:01.360 --> 0:03:05.359 You're still popcorn still on the ceiling. I can see 0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:11.520 it out right. I'm still in Yeah, I gotta I 0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:14.200 gotta talking to the other day. It was it was 0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:22.120 pretty pretty humbling. So, Mickey, what is the significance of 0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:24.760 the monkey? It was a Christmas monkey. I had it 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.639 sitting around the house, and I said, short of bringing 0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:30.360 in flowers, I thought I'd bring in the little dude 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:34.040 and set them up here and uh and create some 0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:39.640 joy and happiness for Christmas coming up this week. I 0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:43.240 thought it was material. I thought that a bill. If 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:47.680 I start seeing a clothes line behind Spagnola with some clothes, 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:50.320 you know, I know there's more of a problem than 0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:55.360 Spagnola is addressing. Okay, that I do realize, right, So 0:03:55.480 --> 0:03:57.880 don't get too comfortable in that Spags. We're starting to 0:03:57.920 --> 0:04:01.520 worry about you know what. I think we need to 0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:04.920 work on your product placement. However, Mickey, because you're covering 0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:12.880 up the SWBC mortgage signed behind the monkey, we needed 0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:15.160 to figure that out. Yeah, And I thought maybe it 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:18.359 was in honor of Daz scoring his first touchdown in 0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:24.200 three years. How about that? Yeah, I was so happy 0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:27.880 for Daz Man. You talk about a guy that I mean, 0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:30.400 just just to be out there on the field and 0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:32.960 to be playing ball again. You know, when you mess 0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:36.720 up your achilles tendon. Guys over thirty years old. If 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:39.400 I'm not mistaken, he was hovering around thirty at that time. 0:04:40.120 --> 0:04:44.360 That's pretty good that accomplishment. He should be so proud 0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:47.520 of himself. I'm sure he's gonna have a good Christmas. 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:50.000 I hope. I don't know about hoping they make the playoffs, 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:53.160 but for his sake, I hope that things go well 0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:58.279 for him in Baltimore, because you know how emotional dads is. Guys. 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:00.599 When he couldn't play against the col was, he's ready 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.599 to quit, you know. And I get it because he's 0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:07.360 so impulsive in everything that he does. But he did 0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:10.280 well for the Cowboys, so I can't help. But still 0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:13.520 wishing well in Baltimore. Well, I'll tell you one time 0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:16.039 that he had a pet monkey once upon a time. 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:20.039 That's right, right, He's to keep working too, and rehabbing, 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:26.040 by the way. That's right there, Achilles associates. There you go, 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:33.040 that's right, all right. Let's not the lead is that Mickey. 0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:36.200 The lead is that Mickey can pick the Cowboys to 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:39.719 beat the Eagles on Sunday because the Cowboys have back 0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:43.320 to back wins for the first time in twenty two games. 0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:47.680 How about them Cowboys? Make how about them Cowboys? And 0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:50.720 they did it just as if they hadn't won that game, 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:53.160 I had to pick him to lose the last two, right, 0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:58.000 even if they won both of them, right, And and 0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:02.160 oh what a victory it was. Right. It's like, uh, 0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:04.400 I was sitting there trying to figure out how I 0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:06.960 was going to write this site up, and it was like, well, 0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:10.760 how about that defense, the one that took the ball 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:13.680 away four times, or the one that gave up four 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:18.360 hundred and fifty eight yards of offense. And after all 0:06:18.440 --> 0:06:22.160 they had done, they were within an onside kick, only 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:26.520 up seven from San Francisco coming down and tying the 0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:30.360 game up. Go figure out they would have tied the 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:34.000 game up because they were not counting the onside kid. 0:06:34.480 --> 0:06:38.640 It never works unless you're playing against Atlanta. So let's 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:41.680 just be real about that. We had the game in 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:46.240 control even at the time of the onside kick. But yes, 0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:50.320 bags to see how that quarterback Mullon hung in there. 0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:54.240 I mean he hung in there from some decent pressure 0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:58.280 from the Cowboys defensive line that seems to be improving 0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:01.279 every day. I'm not going to go patting them on 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:03.880 the back yet, but when it's all said and done, 0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:08.279 they were pretty consistent in what they had to do, 0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:11.240 and I would not if we would have lost the game, 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:14.000 then it wouldn't have been on the defensive lines of 0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:18.080 heads if as far as I'm concerned, Well, because ms 0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:21.560 SA bit boys life for every past that he completed, 0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:23.880 I thought, and he did a decent job at that. 0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:26.240 We made him do a decent job at it. They did. 0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:29.400 They did throw for three hundred nineteen yards, they did 0:07:29.520 --> 0:07:33.440 run for one hundred and fifty yards once again, and 0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:36.679 as I saw, that's all. That's all. At the time 0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:40.040 of the onsite, Cowboys were only up seven points. By 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:45.000 the way, Yeah, on side kicks don't work. They don't work. 0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:47.560 That's the only reason I wasn't worries fags because we 0:07:47.640 --> 0:07:50.600 would work that onside kid didn't. It was like they don't. 0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:54.080 Starting to look a lot like the Cowboys. That's all 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:59.840 I gotta say. I'm just glad that I'm serious. I 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:03.320 am serious. I love the way, you know, the defensive 0:08:03.360 --> 0:08:05.280 line hung in there. As I watched the games, I 0:08:05.400 --> 0:08:08.560 watched some of it today, and what I saw was, 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:14.960 I'm sorry the bill have something to say. I was 0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:18.360 gonna let y'all know you two keep talking because I'm 0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:20.160 having a hard time hearing you. I think I'm having 0:08:20.200 --> 0:08:23.120 some Wi Fi issues, So you may lose for a second. 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:29.160 YouTube keep carrying. What I saw Spags was a defensive line. 0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:33.560 I can see that. As much as I'm upset at 0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:38.240 the linebackers, when that defensive line plays well, there's just 0:08:38.320 --> 0:08:43.520 a big difference in how our secondary reacts to certain things. 0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:48.679 You saw Mullins he had to eyeball his wide receivers 0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:51.440 most of the time because the D line was at 0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:54.880 least in the vicinity, and I mean more than just 0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:57.840 in the vicinity. They were close enough to where it was. 0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:01.360 They were harassing him enough to where of course d 0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:04.559 Lawrence got the hit on his arm, and you had 0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:09.200 Donovan Wilson coming through and anticipating where that throw was 0:09:09.200 --> 0:09:12.560 going because once again he had the eyeball his receivers. 0:09:13.120 --> 0:09:16.400 That was a heck of an interception by Wilson. I 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:19.680 thought the pass was still there. To me, it was 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.160 one of those fifty fifty balls to where I thought 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:25.600 Wilson jumped it quicker, and he wanted that ball more 0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:28.680 than the tighty and wanted it. That's one of the 0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:32.559 things that having a rush against your quarterback. That's the 0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:36.840 luxury that it gives you. In the secondary, they can't 0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:39.480 see the dbs where they are. They can see the receivers, 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:41.880 but you don't want to know where the other dangerous 0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:44.760 spots are. So you know, those kind of things you 0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:48.280 try to build on. And it's just like Minnesota Spags. 0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:51.680 We give up a lot, but we still win the game. 0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:54.640 And let's just be real, that's our M. That's gonna 0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:57.920 be our M for the next next two or three games. Well, 0:09:57.960 --> 0:10:01.760 and once again they need to score thirty some points 0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:05.040 to be able to win the game. Yeah, and that's 0:10:05.200 --> 0:10:09.440 now four what five wins. In all five they've scored 0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:11.959 thirty points. And if you go back to last year, 0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:14.360 they eight games they won, they all scored at least 0:10:14.400 --> 0:10:18.079 thirty points. So they're they're last thirteen wins. They've had 0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:22.200 to score thirty or more points. Uh, not necessarily to win, 0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:25.800 but they did score that many uh in those in 0:10:25.840 --> 0:10:30.560 those victories, so it was better. I thought they did 0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:35.520 confuse Mullin's sum uh and I get it. The last 0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:38.880 what fifty yards they got were off to Hail Mary 0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:43.120 at the end of the game. But gosh, they just 0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:47.319 can't play the run. We talked about it last week, 0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:51.440 and we talked about San Francisco using a fullback, and 0:10:51.480 --> 0:10:54.600 they're gonna use that fullback. And not only did they 0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:58.080 use the fullback, there were at times they had a fullback, 0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:00.800 a tailback and two tight ends in the game. And 0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:04.680 here comes the Cowboys with their nickel defense, and right, 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:15.080 I just I don't get it. I need an explanation. Hey, well, 0:11:15.120 --> 0:11:17.080 you know, first of all, the hold of Belling. He 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:20.719 doesn't have the luxury to be upset because I was 0:11:20.840 --> 0:11:25.760 upset Friday and you laughed in my face, so I 0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:29.920 feel your pain. But it's like, we gotta see. I 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:32.439 think the coaches are using this COVID thing as an 0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:37.160 excuse not to be accountable to reporters, because someone should 0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:40.920 be in their faces over and over again demanding that 0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:45.400 we played. I think it's Joe Thomas or some other linebacker, 0:11:46.080 --> 0:11:49.440 you know, And now we're down Vanderesh if I'm not 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:53.360 if I'm not mistaken, so you know, and we have them. 0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:55.280 I think you need to play the game. Did you 0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:57.720 notice that he was in on the nickel defense. I 0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:02.760 did notice, but only because Bands went down. Yeah, and 0:12:02.520 --> 0:12:04.800 and and it's like, okay, why don't you do that again? 0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:07.400 You know? The other the other solution that they had 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:10.359 to their run hairy offense was to put five defensive 0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:13.560 linemen out there. Okay, now you got everybody spread out, 0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:16.320 but once the edge isn't held, you don't have enough 0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:19.120 linebackers close to the line of scrimmage to stop the 0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:23.920 guy he's once he beats that last defensive end, Katie 0:12:23.920 --> 0:12:28.280 bar the door gone, Well what they what I see 0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:32.040 that Mike Nolan is doing when we find ourselves in 0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:35.679 that type of matchup, so to speak, he likes to 0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:38.320 just bring an extra guy when it comes to the run. 0:12:38.559 --> 0:12:41.920 I think he likes to bring that extra defensive back 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:45.280 as a run blitzer, not a path blitzer, but a 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:49.000 run blitzer. And there are times when you see Thompson 0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:53.440 or one of the other safeties knifing down on that 0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:57.760 RPO play. So you gotta be careful when we play 0:12:57.760 --> 0:13:00.840 Philly because as much as you unite down to go 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:04.240 get that running back, now you've got Jalen Hoods who 0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:06.439 can pull it out of his stomach and take take 0:13:06.640 --> 0:13:09.320 take a run around the end. So that's gonna be 0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:15.480 challenged even more this weekend, this coming weekend. But they 0:13:15.520 --> 0:13:22.520 did get into that. Yep, yep, they did get that's 0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:27.079 how we have to play. We talked about it last week. Uh. 0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:32.600 So that's now seven takeaways in two games. Right going 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:36.280 into this game, I think all they had was was 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:40.760 eleven over these last two games. But before these last 0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:43.560 two games, And the other thing they did is they 0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:49.280 scored points after the takeaways. Yes, and I think I 0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:54.400 pointed out the eleven takeaways they had, Uh they only 0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:57.760 had turned the eleven takeaways into twenty eight points. Now 0:13:57.800 --> 0:14:01.560 they've turned seven takeaways into four one points in the 0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:05.600 last two games. And that's the significant part about at 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:09.760 least giving your offense short fields. They don't have to 0:14:09.880 --> 0:14:13.400 drive seventy five eighty yards every time to score a touchdown. 0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:16.040 And I think we saw the difference. It was a 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:20.040 lot easier, even though they struggled running the football, even 0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:25.520 though they struggled trying to protect Andy Dalton, especially when 0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:29.320 San Francisco decided, well, heck, we're just blitzing. And how 0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:31.960 many blitzes did you see off the slot right and 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:34.800 it's like somebody ought to maybe pick that guy up, 0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:39.080 it might help out. But they did. Somehow. Someway score 0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:45.640 forty one points, a season high this year. And you know, 0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:49.640 as as a former player, Spags, you weren't there in 0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:51.920 nineteen eighty one, but you came a little bit later. 0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:55.640 You remember how we were running around chasing our own 0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:59.520 tails in that secondary as well behind the flex defense. 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:03.560 But we were able to get those turnovers and that's 0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:06.720 always made the difference. You're gonna give up big plays 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:09.160 when you're in man to man. That has never been 0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:13.000 my complaint about our defensive backs. My point is you 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:16.720 got to get yours. You can't sit back every time 0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:20.840 and just react to what they're doing. We were good 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:25.520 at thermos thieves and anticipating at times what the offense 0:15:25.600 --> 0:15:28.960 wanted to do. And you talked about scoring off of 0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:32.160 those turnovers. Cowboys were always good at that back in 0:15:32.200 --> 0:15:35.480 the eighties. And that's what I talk about, Spags, when 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:40.760 we talk about situational football. Okay, what do we do? 0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:43.360 What do we have in our bag of tricks in 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:48.040 our game plan for a short field after we get 0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:52.560 the momentum from an interception or turnover. Those kinds of 0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:56.920 things are talked about in good meetings with good coaches. 0:15:57.360 --> 0:16:00.600 Those are anticipated. Okay, what's gonna happened if we get 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:03.120 an interception or turn over in the in the end 0:16:03.200 --> 0:16:08.800 zone and we have a must score touchdown situation. What 0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:12.360 do we have as part of that package? The Cowboys 0:16:12.360 --> 0:16:16.680 seemed to have that together offensively, and to me, that's 0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:19.960 just good coaching to be prepared for that. Don't be 0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:22.280 surprised when you're getting the red zone and say, oh man, 0:16:22.440 --> 0:16:24.600 but what do we do now? Now, these guys did 0:16:24.640 --> 0:16:27.400 a good job yesterday, you know, minus a couple of 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:31.640 uh jet sweeps or whatever that crap they tried with Cooper. 0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:35.520 Besides all of that, I mean, we were we were 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:38.520 pretty solid. We were as as far as the calls 0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:42.880 were concerned and as far as our responsibilities. Oh man, 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:46.000 I'm glad you brought that up. Ever since, my wife 0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:49.240 and I were watching the game, and I can't remember exactly, 0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:52.880 it was early fourth quarter, whatever time it was, and 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:55.560 I told I said to her, well, things have been 0:16:55.680 --> 0:16:58.440 going all right, but it's about now. If it was 0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:02.400 tied at twenty four, all it's about not it's about now. 0:17:02.400 --> 0:17:04.040 We're going to run a fake punt here in a 0:17:04.080 --> 0:17:07.840 second at that time, and about that time they read 0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:11.439 the end around to Amari Cooper had lost twelve yards 0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:16.560 swelveth ye territory. It didn't because when you try it, 0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:20.000 all right, but that set up the double pass, and 0:17:20.080 --> 0:17:26.840 so it was try not. They have it in their 0:17:26.880 --> 0:17:29.880 bag of t and then I'm sitting there going So 0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:32.399 there was, there was the end around, there was the 0:17:32.440 --> 0:17:35.040 double pass. It was set up for the fake punt. 0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:38.920 The fake punt had to call. And it shows it 0:17:38.960 --> 0:17:42.360 shows how much discipline they now have, as much as 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:44.479 they had the urge to go ahead and go at 0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:47.359 the fake punt. There died at twenty four. They kicked 0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:49.479 it away and sure enough it worked out all right 0:17:49.560 --> 0:17:53.080 for and you know, on that double pass, I don't 0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:56.080 know if you could see it on TV. He had 0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:59.359 the guy on a post pattern about thirty or forty 0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:02.480 yards down own field and he chose not to throw it. 0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:05.960 He threw it back across the field he had So 0:18:05.960 --> 0:18:09.720 you're saying they did. They did say it a second time, 0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:14.200 Cedric Wilson is not spotting the wide open receivers fifty 0:18:14.280 --> 0:18:17.159 yards down field. Well, the first they did point that 0:18:17.200 --> 0:18:19.840 out the first time. He didn't even look downfield. He 0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:22.120 just tuck it and said, I'm out at the ball. 0:18:22.359 --> 0:18:25.520 I'm not throwing it. Hey, guys, let's let's put too 0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:28.240 much on his on his plate, all right, Let's just 0:18:28.320 --> 0:18:30.240 let him do what he's got to do, because next thing, 0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:32.160 you know, we got a safety or something like that. 0:18:32.240 --> 0:18:36.280 So I'm just glad we were able to get get 0:18:36.280 --> 0:18:38.120 out of the ends, you know, out of the back 0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:40.639 of the end zone, back of the of our territory, 0:18:40.720 --> 0:18:43.560 and we were able to at least get close. When 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:46.119 you look at that double pass bill kind of a 0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:48.480 big play because if we don't make that then we're 0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:51.119 plenty for men even deeper in our own territory. So 0:18:51.440 --> 0:18:53.960 I was as glad to see us get that close. 0:18:54.080 --> 0:18:57.639 But you know, there's a reason probably that Cedric Wilson 0:18:57.680 --> 0:19:03.960 doesn't play quarterback anymore. That's that's a quarterbacks on used 0:19:04.040 --> 0:19:05.800 him as a quarterback. We got to go to break. 0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:07.960 But we should give a game ball to tell more, 0:19:08.080 --> 0:19:10.600 because I think you guys are right. He had to 0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:13.359 figure out how to get the ball on the perimeter 0:19:13.400 --> 0:19:16.440 because they could not run the ball a lick in 0:19:16.480 --> 0:19:19.200 this game, and they weren't going to run. Called it. 0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:22.520 I called it. I called it, and he got the ball. 0:19:23.600 --> 0:19:29.800 Who spies? Why you buddy? What's up? It just got? 0:19:29.920 --> 0:19:32.359 That means we really need to take a break. Better, 0:19:32.400 --> 0:19:34.919 take a break. Really, that means really break time. I 0:19:34.920 --> 0:19:38.120 think we had a power out. All right, let's take Okay, 0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:40.520 let's take a break, and we will be back in 0:19:40.560 --> 0:19:42.840 a moment on rich shots or something. At least a 0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:46.240 couple of us will be back in a moment. Hey, 0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:50.399 they're Cowboys fans.

What was going on there? 0:22:12.600 --> 0:22:14.879 I think there was not enough motion in here. I 0:22:14.920 --> 0:22:18.040 gotta get Mickey Monkey or Monkey Mickey, whatever you want 0:22:18.040 --> 0:22:20.879 to call him, start playing as singles. We need some 0:22:21.000 --> 0:22:33.560 motion all season. So it was Jerry must have forgotten. Yeah, 0:22:33.720 --> 0:22:35.679 I thought maybe they didn't want us talking about the 0:22:35.720 --> 0:22:41.360 play calling anymore or something. We were actually being very positive. Yeah, 0:22:41.400 --> 0:22:45.680 I try. However, having said that, yeah, you said that 0:22:45.760 --> 0:22:48.360 the Cowboys weren't able to run the ball between the tackles. 0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:50.679 Is that what you were saying? It's exactly what I 0:22:50.760 --> 0:22:55.600 was saying because before but wait, but way Zig didn't play? Yeah, 0:22:55.640 --> 0:22:58.199 I know, how about Zick was I thought Zick was 0:22:58.240 --> 0:23:02.440 the problem. Yeah, do you realize until that you guys 0:23:02.480 --> 0:23:08.280 are so messy. You guys that were six yards and 0:23:08.480 --> 0:23:11.760 forty yards. They had run the ball ten times for 0:23:11.800 --> 0:23:16.600 twenty three yards and it was Zeke's fault, right, he 0:23:16.680 --> 0:23:21.800 can't run right slow the whole Why he has no 0:23:21.880 --> 0:23:27.480 explosion money? Yeah, I try. Yeah, but to your pot. 0:23:27.600 --> 0:23:31.040 Told you guys just how it was gonna happen, because 0:23:31.080 --> 0:23:34.159 we know how tough that San Francisco defensive line is. 0:23:34.359 --> 0:23:36.920 The linebackers, to me, are very talented. You can see 0:23:36.920 --> 0:23:39.480 that in the ball game, flying all over the place, 0:23:39.520 --> 0:23:42.040 and boy, they were just getting on my nerves. But 0:23:42.280 --> 0:23:47.320 what you saw was uh as we talked about the 0:23:47.560 --> 0:23:53.240 offensive coordinator's ability to be creative and even on Friday 0:23:53.359 --> 0:23:56.200 we talked about That's why that was my pick to click. 0:23:56.280 --> 0:23:59.399 Thank you very much, uh my pick to click. And 0:23:59.440 --> 0:24:01.640 I talked to about Polot because we are going to 0:24:01.680 --> 0:24:05.760 get him out in space. That's the only way you 0:24:05.880 --> 0:24:08.960 can you can be effective against moving the ball against 0:24:09.000 --> 0:24:11.879 this forty nine ers defense. You have to get him 0:24:11.920 --> 0:24:15.720 in space. You saw that Richard Sherman was not able 0:24:15.720 --> 0:24:19.520 to handle not only Polot, but any tight ends or 0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:22.040 wide receiver is coming out of the backfield when you 0:24:22.080 --> 0:24:24.080 get when you get a person, when you get two 0:24:24.080 --> 0:24:27.280 guys in space, the one that's more determined is gonna win. 0:24:27.680 --> 0:24:30.280 And you could tell that that Pollot is one of 0:24:30.320 --> 0:24:33.199 those guys as hard to handle, even as hard to 0:24:33.240 --> 0:24:36.080 handle as a wide receiver once you get him out 0:24:36.080 --> 0:24:38.800 there and it's a one on one situation. So we 0:24:38.880 --> 0:24:42.400 took advantage of that several times in the ball game. 0:24:42.560 --> 0:24:45.639 There was sometimes there's six catches for sixty three yards 0:24:45.640 --> 0:24:48.600 where yeah, a lot of times it was one on nobody. 0:24:48.720 --> 0:24:50.879 They didn't even bother to go out in the flat 0:24:50.960 --> 0:24:53.920 with the guy. And I'm glad you mentioned Richard Sherman 0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:56.800
