It's 0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:15.000 obviously a day to remember for our country, the twenty 0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:18.840 third anniversary of the tragedies that happened there in New 0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:22.240 York and in DC. Let's let's I want to go 0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:24.120 around and tell you and just kind of get a 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:28.720 perspective of where were you on that day? I was 0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:33.319 at Valley Ranch working and I remember I as it 0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:37.680 started to unfold, I was actually walking back to the back. 0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:40.319 There was an area in the back of Valley Ranch 0:01:40.560 --> 0:01:45.479 security area. There's our old security guard, Jake. Everybody knew Jake, right, 0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:48.160 Jake was He was an older guy, but really really 0:01:48.240 --> 0:01:50.360 nice guy. And so I get back to the back 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:52.320 and he's like, hey, you're seeing what's going on? And 0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:55.160 so I start watching this with him. And at that 0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:57.560 point we had no idea what it was. We just 0:01:57.640 --> 0:01:59.480 knew that they'd been in, you know, playing it blown 0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:02.559 folding into building, and then it all started to happen, 0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:05.000 and then we started getting the reports and it was 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:06.480 just amazement. 0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:07.800 It was fear. 0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:12.359 It was something that people in America, at least people 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:16.440 in my age, had never really lived through, and so 0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:18.680 it was it was a very very unsettling time. And 0:02:18.680 --> 0:02:20.839 then you start trying to call family, and I'm trying 0:02:20.880 --> 0:02:23.520 to call my wife and she's in downtown Dallas, and 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:27.239 so downtown metropolitan areas were all starting to get worried, 0:02:27.280 --> 0:02:29.680 like are their planes heading toward our buildings? And so 0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:32.200 you're having those kinds of conversations. So it was a 0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:36.799 pretty weird tough day. And obviously we weren't in New York, 0:02:36.840 --> 0:02:38.960 so didn't experience some of the things that those folks 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:40.079 experienced obviously. 0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:42.200 But but I'll go around the table. 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:43.760 I remember, what was your day like that? 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:44.079 That day? 0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:44.640 Where were you? 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:49.160 I was still living in Dominican Republic. I remember we 0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:52.480 got out of school around one over there, so I 0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:55.640 got home. I can't I haven't done the math to 0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:57.959 remember exactly how old I was, but I must have 0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:01.160 been around nine or ten something like that, And I 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:05.000 remember getting home and turning on the TV and it 0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:07.840 was just showing on TV. You saw the towers and 0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:11.400 twin towers. And then at that age, I don't think 0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:15.720 I ever truly processed what was actually happening. But all 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:18.880 you knew, even at that age, this is bad. Like 0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:22.160 you just had that feeling of like this is terribles, 0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:26.280 this is really really bad. But again you don't understand 0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:29.240 the magnitude of it and what it means. At the time, 0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:31.639 I did have a sister, she was a half sister. 0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:36.040 I still have a half sister. I still have her, 0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:41.440 but she was living in in New York and luckily 0:03:41.640 --> 0:03:44.680 fortunately she was not near all of that. But I 0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:47.839 remember in making the connection. But all that to say 0:03:47.960 --> 0:03:51.360 is like, it wasn't just in the US type of news. 0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:52.240 This is news. 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:56.640 This is something that hit worldwide, and you did see 0:03:56.960 --> 0:04:00.760 from everywhere in the world when this was happening what 0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:03.680 it was happening, and just feeling that feeling of just 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:07.120 being really really scared, even though I was on an 0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:11.320 island completely separate from New York, but it was just 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:16.320 it's terrible and now understanding as you got older what 0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:20.760 actually happened and what it meant, it's it's horrifying. 0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:21.880 Nick. 0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:25.680 Yeah, I had a unique perspective I think from my 0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:28.200 generation because I was I was alive, but I was 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:31.680 not really conscious whenever this happened. I was barely one 0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:34.120 year old, but I was actually just talking about it 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:35.960 with my mom that's too long ago, about like where 0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:38.400 I was, how the day unfolded, and it was my 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:39.120 dad that was the one. 0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:40.680 I was like, Ah, it's not that big of a deal. 0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:42.680 And then the second the second plane hit and it 0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:44.440 was like, Okay, it might be that big of a deal. 0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:48.239 And so growing up in the time following nine to eleven, 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:50.800 I think my generation again has that unique perspective of 0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:54.080 that is our reality. That was always our reality. And 0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:56.400 I think whenever I talked to older generations and try 0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:59.120 to understand, you know, the impact of what that moment 0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:01.640 meant at that in their lives. You know, there was 0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:04.080 a completely different life before that. From my understanding and 0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:07.400 then growing up with this current understanding of my current life, 0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:09.279 you know, I look at events such as the Boston 0:05:09.320 --> 0:05:12.520 Marathon or you know, things of that nature, but understanding 0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:14.039 that nine to eleven is a big reason why we 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.240 have the national security that we do today. It's a 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:17.840 big reason why, you know, a lot of things were 0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:19.760 happening in my world growing up as a child, but 0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:24.200 it's always fascinating me from the perspective of the impact 0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:26.640 that it had on not only society in the United States, 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:27.760 but society around the world. 0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:33.479 Yeah, I had a different perspective. Were I like you, Derek. 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:35.480 I was at Valley Ranch. I was working in the 0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:40.040 pro skuying department for the Cowboys, and my office was 0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:42.760 right on the outside of Larry Layswell, who was the 0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:46.520 boss of the personnel staff of us at that time, 0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:50.080 and Lace popped in and said he walked in and 0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:52.640 he said, Hey, did you hear a plane hit the world? 0:05:52.680 --> 0:05:57.760 Trade Center and I said, uh no, he and I go, 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.359 and so we're kind of talking about again. Yeah, and 0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:02.040 I was thinking it was like a private plane. 0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:02.320 Yeah. 0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:04.839 I was thinking to maybe propeller plane, you know, maybe 0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:07.080 a jet something got off course and hit the World 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:10.040 Trade Center. And here we are. He's like, no, an 0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:14.120 airliner and I'm like what. And so we go back 0:06:14.160 --> 0:06:17.320 to the draft room and we turn it on where 0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:19.880 our screens were. We turned that thing on, and then 0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:24.279 the second plane hit and now we're all looking at 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:27.799 each other like, oh my gosh, yeah what And then 0:06:28.520 --> 0:06:32.360 when that plane hit the Pentagon, we were all Then 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:36.000 Chris Hall, I remember who's you know, college scouting coordinator, goes, 0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:39.800 we're under attack. This is now where our country is 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:44.719 now under attack. And there was that moment where you 0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:48.240 just you're trying to just take it all in. And 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:51.000 we immediately jumped on the phone. And this is two 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:55.880 thousand and once. You really don't have great communication. We're 0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:59.440 trying to find our scouts. You know, these these airliners 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:03.520 are now hitting buildings and going down and hitting Pentagon 0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:05.680 and going down and field. You know, all this stuff 0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:08.839 is happening. Matter of fact, the you know, the Los 0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:13.800 Angeles Kings lost two scouts, yeah, in the Pennsylvania crash 0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:20.880 or the hijacking, and we just immediately went into mode 0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:23.080 of trying to locate where our guys were. 0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:25.880 We're trying, by the way, for those of those scouts 0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:27.640 are flying all around because they got gains. 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.720 Yeah, that's what I'm saying that the Los Angeles King 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:34.400 scouts were in Boston looking, you know, and they were 0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:37.400 flying back to the back to the coast to you know, 0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:40.040 they were done. They were on their scouting trip and 0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:44.120 uh Ace Bali and Mark Beavis there, you know, lost 0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:47.480 their lives in Pennsylvania on that flight and leaving out 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:50.840 of Boston, and so yeah, it was it was terrifying 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:54.440 because you didn't know. I mean, the news was just 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:58.640 so it was so just jumbled, and you didn't you know, 0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:01.920 and you're just kind of like, my gosh, what's happening. 0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:05.920 And so we went into we went into okay, let's 0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:09.920 try and identify where our guys are. Let's make sure everybody. 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:15.000 And once we found everybody, you know, but then as scouts, 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:17.960 they're all over the country. Some of them are flying, 0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:19.640 some of them are driving, you know, and now you're 0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:23.720 thinking about getting everybody home because after that, you know, 0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:27.800 transportation was shut down and it's a big of known. 0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:31.680 And I remember talking to Sean Payton after Sean was 0:08:31.840 --> 0:08:35.520 working with the New York Giants, and he remembers being 0:08:35.559 --> 0:08:38.880 at practice and if you look at the practice field 0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:42.120 at the Metal Ants the old stadium, you could see 0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:44.760 what was going on in the city, you know, and 0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:47.960 they're thinking, you know, and here they are they smoking, 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:51.640 They're seeing smoke and all that. And Sean tells a 0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:54.600 story about the eeriest thing was a couple of days 0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:58.880 later of all the cars that were parked in the 0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:01.920 parking lot at Giants Daten. People take public transportation to 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:05.120 get into the city, and those were cars of folks 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:08.600 that never came back for their cars. So you know, 0:09:08.880 --> 0:09:11.080 at a level, you're getting ready for a game, you're 0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:15.400 and but that now it's all like why, you know 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:18.400 what I mean, we're during the we always in the NFL. 0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:21.720 The Kennedy assassination sixty three was something that the league 0:09:21.760 --> 0:09:23.720 had to make a determination they're going to play games, 0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:26.000 and we didn't play games that we were getting ready 0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:28.920 for the Lions that day that week and they postponed 0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:31.800 the game. But it was it was. It was terrifying, 0:09:31.840 --> 0:09:34.080 It really was, because you just there was so much 0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:37.920 unknown and the news was coming in and it was 0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:40.840 so just you here and there and here, and you 0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:43.160 just didn't know why, and you didn't know what to believe. 0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:43.720 You didn't know what. 0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:47.200 You had conflicting reports on some news because it was 0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:50.360 all coming in in real time and you're watching actual 0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:52.480 footage of what's happening. Now you're seeing things and like, 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:54.920 did I just see what I thought I saw? Like 0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:58.640 it was very very jarring and just it was very 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:01.959 uh different obviously anything we'd ever experienced. 0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:05.319 Yeah, it just immediately, like I said, when that when 0:10:05.320 --> 0:10:09.040 that plane hit the Pentagon, that was when the moment 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:12.640 that that I went, my gosh, where war? Yeah, our 0:10:12.679 --> 0:10:16.240 country is now being attacked. You know, they're using our 0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:20.800 transportation system against us here and so yeah, that's the 0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:24.000 That was the day, and it's and and you know, 0:10:24.040 --> 0:10:26.200 and then afterward, and what was so strange is to 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:29.600 walk outside that night and I used to live in 0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:32.040 an area where the flight path where planes were either 0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:37.280 Dallas Left Field or DFW and nothing in the sky, nothing, 0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:39.920 nothing in the sky. The whole that you're not walking 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:43.360 and I'm thinking and there are usually planes tacked, you know, 0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:47.400 flying in and but that was that was tough. That 0:10:47.520 --> 0:10:49.680 was a tough, tough, tough few days. 0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:53.680 There a quick other story, one of our very own 0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:57.240 Larry Walsley, and guys can get to know him in 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:00.960 one of the Deep Blue documentaries that we did Close 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:05.720 to the Vest. But Larry, he started with Team Security, 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:08.280 with the Cowboy Security back in the day and after 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:12.400 nine eleven happened, I mean, he was one of the 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:15.600 ones that started implementing and creating what it is now 0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:18.680 today known as TSA. So when you're getting your shoes 0:11:18.720 --> 0:11:20.720 off and all that, get mad. 0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:25.319 At Larry, was he with American Airlines on nine to eleven? 0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:27.920 He was right yes, and then security. 0:11:27.559 --> 0:11:30.120 Right yes, and then he Yeah, he was one of 0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:32.040 the ones that I was part of creating all of that. 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:34.160 I mean, if you ever get to meet Larry, he 0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:35.960 has so many stories. 0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:41.200 Oh my gosther cover, he can't tell you all the story. 0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:43.600 He wrote a crazy story. He read a book called 0:11:43.640 --> 0:11:46.760 Man Drake, which was his code name for his or 0:11:46.760 --> 0:11:50.160 for his CIA stuff. It's a fascinating book. And yeah, 0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:52.920 having lunch with him is always interesting. You're asking a 0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:55.040 lot more questions than he's asking. 0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:56.200 You, and you want to just sit there and just 0:11:56.200 --> 0:11:56.839 take it all and you. 0:11:56.800 --> 0:11:59.360 Take it all in. But yeah, you're talking about TSA. 0:11:59.600 --> 0:12:01.760 Larry's also really good at helping you get the past, 0:12:01.800 --> 0:12:02.880 to get through all that. 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:09.120 Noted, well, that was we certainly want to take this 0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:12.000 day to remember because there were lots of people who 0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:15.400 lost loved ones and those people still to this day 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:18.000 obviously deal with that in this day. So we want 0:12:18.040 --> 0:12:19.560 to be respectful of that. And that's why I wanted 0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:23.040 to take this time to remember a little bit and 0:12:23.120 --> 0:12:25.240 tell those folks were still thinking about them, and we're 0:12:25.240 --> 0:12:27.360 still thinking about their loved ones who were lost on 0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:29.360 that day.

Brian, 0:15:40.080 --> 0:15:42.200 I want you to start first with their quarterback. Obviously, 0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:43.840 they put up a ton of points last week. His 0:15:43.960 --> 0:15:47.960 stat line nineteen of twenty three, eighty three percent completion rate, 0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:51.400 two hundred yards, three touchdowns, a one forty two point 0:15:51.480 --> 0:15:55.560 five rating. Highly efficient, obviously, especially with attempts that traveled 0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:57.360 less than ten yards. I read that he was thirteen 0:15:57.360 --> 0:16:00.320 to thirteen the missles dink and dunk type pros. Yeah, 0:16:00.560 --> 0:16:02.440 but when you're doing that effectively, you can move the 0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:04.960 ball down the field. How do you assess his abilities 0:16:05.560 --> 0:16:09.080 relative to who they were playing versus how well he played. 0:16:09.440 --> 0:16:11.960 Yeah, you know, and I think you have to give 0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:15.400 him some credit for how well he played. Clint Kubiak, 0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:21.560 the coordinator, there's a new kind of young kid group 0:16:21.640 --> 0:16:25.320 that's coming from the McVeigh Shanahan, you know, and they're 0:16:25.360 --> 0:16:28.240 all now they're infiltrating all these other teams. So you 0:16:28.640 --> 0:16:31.960 kind of see a lot of movement, a lot of motion, 0:16:33.000 --> 0:16:35.360 you know, things to try and make it easy on 0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:39.760 the quarterback. And I think that Clint called a really 0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:40.760 a nice game. 0:16:40.640 --> 0:16:41.800 For Is this Gary's kid? 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:44.640 Yeah? Okay, yeah, and his brother works in your scouting 0:16:44.680 --> 0:16:49.200 department here. So yeah, so the Kubiak is a good 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:51.960 football family Texas A and M. I know, I've known 0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:54.560 Gary for a long time and so it used to 0:16:54.560 --> 0:16:57.640 be a quarterback himself, right quarterback backup quarterback to John 0:16:57.680 --> 0:17:00.520 Away for like twelve years, thirteen years of a career 0:17:00.600 --> 0:17:02.760 doing that and when he had to play, they actually 0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:04.520 won game. So it's kind of he's got something like 0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:06.159 Cooper Rush to him, you know. He kind of like, 0:17:06.200 --> 0:17:07.520 you know, oh my god, he's playing and the next 0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:11.600 time you win the game. So but these these these 0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:15.760 young coordinators have ways of moving the football being created 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:17.520 with how they do it. They they've kind of have 0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:20.600 they have motion in mind, they have ideas of trying 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:24.160 to create mismatches. And that's really what Derek Carr needed. 0:17:24.200 --> 0:17:27.200 He needed somebody to kind of to help him along. 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:30.280 And Derek Carr is capable of throwing the ball down 0:17:30.320 --> 0:17:32.359 the field. The first touchdown of the game was a 0:17:32.960 --> 0:17:37.560 post strike, you know that that Shaheed caught. It was 0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:40.959 a beautiful throw in a pocket that got really muddy. 0:17:41.119 --> 0:17:44.680 But Carolina did not make him feel uncomfortable at all 0:17:44.720 --> 0:17:47.879 in this game. And I think that's something that Dallas 0:17:47.920 --> 0:17:50.640 will do. Dallas will make him feel Mike Zimber will 0:17:50.680 --> 0:17:54.240 make him feel uncomfortable. Now, the things you have to 0:17:54.240 --> 0:17:56.560 worry about a little bit is because what they can 0:17:56.600 --> 0:17:59.680 do with Alvin Kamara and running the football. This off 0:17:59.720 --> 0:18:02.560 it's a line did a pretty good job coming off 0:18:02.560 --> 0:18:05.040 the football getting into Carolina. This guy man there seemed 0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:07.320 like just there was a lot of space. Watching the tape, 0:18:08.000 --> 0:18:10.920 you know, Kamara was averaging about five five a carry. 0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:13.440 There and it was. It just seemed like that every 0:18:13.480 --> 0:18:16.080 time that Carolina was facing the run, it was either 0:18:16.080 --> 0:18:18.120 a light box or they got blown off the ball. 0:18:18.200 --> 0:18:20.840 But those are the things that help Derek Carr, and 0:18:20.880 --> 0:18:25.400 if he doesn't have to make every throw, he could 0:18:25.400 --> 0:18:28.040 be the guy that you saw very accurate done miss 0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:30.720 a pass. You know, even Chris a Lobby, who I 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:33.880 think is their best receiver, was limited in this game. 0:18:34.520 --> 0:18:37.160 Only two catches in this game, so they really really 0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:40.320 didn't need to have the big play, but they were 0:18:40.359 --> 0:18:43.720 able to. The offense did a fine job moving the 0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:45.879 football that kicked some field goals, much like what the 0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:49.239 Cowboys did against Cleveland. But you know, Derek Carr, you 0:18:49.359 --> 0:18:52.880 just can't let him feel good and let him get 0:18:52.920 --> 0:18:55.480 into We always talked about getting into a rhythm. He 0:18:55.520 --> 0:18:57.719 got into a rhythm in this Carolina game where it 0:18:57.760 --> 0:19:00.399 was dropped back, boom ball out, drop back ball, and 0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:03.800 they played a ton of snaps underneath center. I mean 0:19:03.880 --> 0:19:05.760 a ton of snaps. I think it was the highest 0:19:05.840 --> 0:19:08.119 one with them in the rams with the two of 0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:10.840 the weekend that played all these snaps under center. So okay, 0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:13.080 what does that do for you? Well, all of a sudden, 0:19:13.080 --> 0:19:15.120 it turns into well under center. That's how they get 0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:17.600 Alvin Kamara the ball. They take the ball, they walk 0:19:17.640 --> 0:19:19.840 it to him and then and then he goes. They 0:19:19.880 --> 0:19:22.320 let the blocks develop. They don't take a shotgun and 0:19:22.359 --> 0:19:24.800 hand it to him sideways and let him go. They 0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:27.359 wanted to get him the ball going downhill, and so 0:19:27.520 --> 0:19:29.560 they play under center quite a bit. This will be 0:19:29.600 --> 0:19:32.600 different from what the Cowboys have seen last week with 0:19:32.680 --> 0:19:33.840 the Browns. Real quick. 0:19:33.880 --> 0:19:36.840 When you when you mentioned that Dallas needs to make 0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:40.480 him uncomfortable, Yeah, are you thinking making him uncomfortable is 0:19:40.520 --> 0:19:43.040 more about the disguises which we talk so much about 0:19:43.080 --> 0:19:45.800 with with Zimmer or is it more about pressure pressure? 0:19:46.040 --> 0:19:51.320 Because he handled he handled the blitzing well against Carolina 0:19:51.359 --> 0:19:53.720 when Carolina blitz. I think he was eight of ten 0:19:53.840 --> 0:19:56.879 throwing the football against the blitz so it was like 0:19:57.040 --> 0:19:59.800 he knew to get it out. I think Dallas when 0:19:59.800 --> 0:20:01.919 he's going to watch the Dallas film, and as the 0:20:01.960 --> 0:20:05.359 coaches watched that film, they're they're a team that's gonna 0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:07.800
