Speaker 5: O led Evo. Today we will we'll try to do

19
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 5: a couple of things here today. Obviously, there's there's a

20
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,959
Speaker 5: there's a cloud that kind of exists over Cowboys Land.

21
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 5: It's been here since Thursday. At Thursday morning, I was

22
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 5: actually planning on sleeping in late. With it being the

23
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 5: bye week. I was trying to get some rest. I

24
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 5: was trying to spend a little time with the family,

25
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 5: just enjoy not thinking about football, and uh. And then

26
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 5: I got a call first thing in the morning, woke

27
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 5: me up. Actually, and I knew, of course, when you

28
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 5: see a coworker it's Nicole actually called me. But when

29
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 5: you see a coworker call in that early on the morning,

30
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 5: when everybody's supposed to, like I told our team get away,

31
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,559
Speaker 5: and I get a call, my first thought is something's wrong.

32
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 5: And and then as she started to tell me what

33
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 5: was going on, obviously my first thought is this can't

34
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 5: be true. Certainly, this is just the Internet doing Internet things.

35
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 5: This can't be true. And the more the morning went on,

36
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 5: the more I found out this is very true. And

37
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 5: the Cowboys had lost their second year defensive end, Marshawn Kneeling.

38
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 5: I want to give everybody an our oportunity to just

39
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 5: kind of speak about it, but you know, I'll just

40
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 5: start by saying I didn't know Marshan particularly well. Being

41
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 5: with the team and traveling with the team and being

42
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 5: around in the locker room, I had the opportunity to

43
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 5: be around him, and and I think it's been said

44
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 5: probably more than anything else, is his infectious smile was

45
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 5: something that I think everyone noticed and also serves as

46
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,839
Speaker 5: a representation for all of us that a smile does

47
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 5: not mean that everything is okay.

48
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 2: And I think I don't want us to.

49
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 5: I think if any of us don't don't think about

50
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 5: that more going forward with regard to the people that

51
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 5: are around us and taking the time to ask how

52
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 5: people are doing, taking the time. I saw Matt Ruhle

53
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 5: was talking about this and he was like, take your

54
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 5: headphones off and have the conversation. And I'm very bad

55
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 5: about I get my work mode and I'm busy and

56
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 5: I've got things going on, and I just don't all

57
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 5: always take the time. But if we don't take this

58
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 5: moment to really learn that it's important to check in

59
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 5: on the people that matter to you and people that

60
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 5: sometimes you might just see in a happening encounter. You

61
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 5: meet somebody, you see someone they don't feel it feels

62
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 5: like something's off with them. Sometimes just maybe asking how

63
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 5: are you doing and literally stopping and saying how are

64
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 5: you doing?

65
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 2: Can make a difference. And Bro, I want to start

66
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 2: with you.

67
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 5: I know you probably of all of us, probably had

68
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 5: more opportunity to work with Marshawn.

69
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: Just tell me about your impressions of him.

70
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 6: I mean you said it beautifully with his infectious smile.

71
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 6: He was a guy that he had such a beautiful

72
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 6: smile and so young, very very young. And I only

73
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 6: had a few times that I interacted with him. We

74
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 6: weren't super close, but just like any other person, normal, kind, respectful,

75
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 6: and just full of life. But just like you said,

76
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 6: this is such a hard topic because yeah, we hear

77
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 6: it all the time of like talk to somebody talking

78
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 6: this or checking on somebody, and it's not that easy.

79
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 6: Is that you can be living next to that person

80
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 6: and not really realize what exactly they're going through. And

81
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 6: I know that he lost his mother not too long,

82
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 6: like a little before the draft. He did an interview

83
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 6: with Nicole Hutchinson. She works here Dallas Cowboy's reporter. The

84
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 6: interview is on dallascowboys dot com. And she asked him

85
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 6: about it and he started to cry. And I'm not

86
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 6: saying this is the reason, like, no one really knows

87
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 6: what he was struggling with at the time this whole

88
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 6: thing occurred, but the fact that he was so emotional

89
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 6: about it, you can still see that there's pain behind

90
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 6: the eyes and still mourning. I mean, the stuff losing

91
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,359
Speaker 6: the mother whenever in life, but just at the age

92
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 6: where he was about to start his career, about to

93
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 6: really turn into a full grown adult. That is very devastating.

94
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 7: And I know the.

95
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 6: Cowways have the resources, and I know a lot of

96
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 6: people questions like, well, you have money, and you have

97
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 6: this and you have that. It doesn't matter. None of

98
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 6: that matters at the end of the day, even if

99
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 6: you have the resources around you, especially as a man,

100
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 6: I know it is very very difficult for you to

101
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 6: talk and open up and discuss certain things that you're

102
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 6: struggling with because the reality is you don't understand it yourself,

103
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 6: and a lot of people don't understand it either, so

104
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 6: it's hard to communicate. So whoever is listening right now,

105
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 6: the main thing is that that you're not alone. It

106
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 6: happens to so many of us. I struggle with it

107
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 6: to myself, and the one thing that is comforting is

108
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 6: knowing that you're not the only one going through things.

109
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 6: It's different situations, different scenarios, but there are so many

110
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 6: of us that deal with mental problems, whether it's depression, anxiety,

111
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 6: panic attacks, whatever form it is. We all react to

112
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 6: it differently, and when you're in it, it's very difficult

113
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 6: for you to see the light at the end of

114
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 6: the tunnel, and you just want the pain to go away.

115
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 6: And that's why so many people lose their lives because

116
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,919
Speaker 6: at the moment, you're in this space where you really

117
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 6: see no resolution, and the best thing to do is

118
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 6: to reach out for help, get on their treatment and

119
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 6: find out what you can do, because I promise you

120
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 6: even if it does if at the time I've been

121
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 6: on the low, I've been on the ground praying to God,

122
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 6: and I always come out of it. It's just the cycle.

123
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 6: So you have a full life ahead of you and

124
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,799
Speaker 6: you're out by yourself and know that there is help

125
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 6: out there that you can reach out. And I know

126
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 6: this is very difficult, and you see, you know what's

127
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 6: devastating is like you see Dak being such an advocate

128
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 6: for as for help and then it's like a teammate,

129
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 6: this happens to someone that's very close. So it's it's

130
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 6: hard to give an answer because I don't even have

131
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 6: the answer, but just know that you're not alone and

132
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 6: the best thing to do is ask for help. And

133
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 6: it's just it's very I'm still trying to process everything

134
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 6: because it's so hard. It's so hard to imagine that

135
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 6: someone's so young. After coming out of that game where

136
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 6: he had such a big play, where you think, wow,

137
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 6: such a successful moment after all the criticism happening throughout

138
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 6: the season for the defense overall, and then you get

139
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 6: such a big breakout play where you score a touchdown

140
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 6: and you're celebrating. You would imagine, oh, yeah, you should

141
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 6: be on top of the world and happy, but that's

142
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 6: not the reality. Sometimes the smile is facade, and what

143
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 6: you're dealing with inside just it's it's tough. It's tough,

144
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 6: and it's hard to process and deal with it. But

145
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 6: the best thing is to talk about it.

146
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, the news was tough, it was difficult. It kicked

147
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 4: off as a rumor and like, boy, that's a terrible

148
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 4: roomor for it to be a you know, to be that, but.

149
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 3: It ended up being like a like a real thing.

150
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 4: And the first thing I did was I just text around,

151
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 4: I just checked in on my people, just tapped in

152
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 4: it with some of my YouTube friends, some of the

153
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 4: people I've met here at a dot com and you know,

154
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 4: conversation goes a long way.

155
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 6: Uh.

156
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 4: Prior to all this YouTube content, I worked at a

157
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 4: mental health hospital for six years and I de escalated

158
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,199
Speaker 4: a ton. I've seen it all, but it never gets easier.

159
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 4: And you'd be surprised if somebody's like an inch away

160
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 4: from something. Hey, man, what's up, hey bro, what's going on?

165
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 4: that's an intro to everything, no matter what the issue. Hey,

167
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 4: let somebody get it off their chest. Let somebody get

168
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,559
Speaker 4: something off they mind. I think you know nowadays people

169
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 4: are so isolated. You know, we put these headphones on,

170
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,599
Speaker 4: we walk around, people on these phones, text and you

171
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 4: don't really get a chance to interact with a lot

172
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 4: of people all the time.

173
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 3: Right. I was kind of boring to raise to just

174
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 3: bother the hell out of how you doing, what's going on?

175
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,719
Speaker 3: How you doing it? It's a greeting, but how you doing?

176
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 3: What's happening? What's happening?

177
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 4: You may run into somebody that'll respond to your what's

178
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,679
Speaker 4: happening with Hey, if just can I talk to you

179
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 4: for a minute. Now, it's on me to be approachable. Yeah,

180
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 4: what's up? So I just challenge everybody to be approachable.

181
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 4: Take the headphones out, get off the phone, because you

182
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,839
Speaker 4: never know who you're gonna run into that might need

183
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 4: to just get some off their chest, some off their mind.

184
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 4: Just just a quick story of working at the hospital.

185
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 4: And I learned and so much from just one man.

186
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 4: Uh worked at NASA. Job you can't even pronounce. He's

187
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 4: a hypro syphilis shrifler therapist. He keeps aliens from taking

188
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 4: over the earth. Best job in the world, millions of dollars.

189
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 4: And I'm just like, you know, just naively, Hey man,

190
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 4: what you what you're doing here? You know, like I'm broke,

191
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 4: and hey.

192
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 3: What you what you're doing?

193
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 1: Ahead?

194
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:22,959
Speaker 3: What you you know what I'm saying.

195
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 4: And he lost a friend, just somebody close to him,

196
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 4: and that spiraled him in a ridiculous way. And what

197
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 4: that taught me was depressed, ain't sad. You can get

198
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 4: up and walk off sad. Depressed your legs don't work.

199
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 4: And now you know, you could be conflicted with things

200
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 4: in your mind that you can't get off of. Because

201
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 4: it's so much deeper than just saying it's something that

202
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 4: just takes over your entire existence and you just can't

203
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 4: control it.

204
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 3: So we just can't be.

205
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,839
Speaker 4: Like, oh, how I can't understand how or man you

206
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 4: got everything? How man you can have a million million

207
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 4: whatever is, you can have a nice whatever, great life,

208
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 4: blockpunt whatever.

209
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 2: Bro.

210
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 4: You just never know because once something kicks into you,

211
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,719
Speaker 4: you don't have control to just get out of that.

212
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 3: You need the help.

213
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 4: Cancer has been funded for three thousand years. Mental health

214
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 4: only got a decade and a half, you know, to

215
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 4: two decades where the government is saying, hey, let's put

216
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 4: some work into figuring out what's actually going on so

217
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 4: that we can fix this kind of stuff. So mental

218
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 4: health is still very young. But if you have any signs,

219
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 4: if you going through anything, just reach out and get

220
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 4: some help because there's a ton of resource, but we

221
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 4: won't know until you tell us.

222
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, usually the locker room is a place where you

223
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 7: can you can be a little bit vulnerable with your situation,

224
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 7: with your emotions and stuff. And you know, we talk

225
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 7: about in football, how you know tough and hard and

226
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 7: things are and you know, and how you have to

227
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 7: fight through things and all that. Well, this just goes

228
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 7: to show you that there's really there's just no place

229
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 7: sometimes you know that you can turn to even if

230
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 7: you have a room full of brothers and some some

231
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 7: sisters have now been added to these to these locker rooms.

232
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 7: You know, you have to be able to to go

233
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 7: forward and say that. But you know, you don't want

234
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 7: to be that guy that's always you know that is

235
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 7: not looked at as a tough guy. But that that

236
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 7: was from my era of football. You know, we're in

237
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 7: a new era of football. We're in a new era

238
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 7: of life where people are able to step forward and

239
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,319
Speaker 7: and and and say, hey, I'm having problems. This is difficult.

240
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 7: And I thought everybody around the table here said the

241
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 7: absolute right thing about what needs to be done. I'll

242
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 7: say this. I'm going to focus on the young man.

243
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 7: He was a developing football player. He really really was.

244
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 7: He was a guy that we had some questions about

245
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 7: coming into the draft and stuff. But you know what,

246
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 7: he got better every time you watched him play, he

247
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 7: got a little better. And that's the thing that was

248
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 7: a credit for him that he was all the things

249
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 7: that he was going through, that he came and did

250
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 7: his job every single day, and it was getting better

251
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,239
Speaker 7: at it. And it's unfortunate though that that that development

252
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 7: has now been cut short. And but I totally you know,

253
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 7: it's one of these things that like, you don't always

254
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 7: have to be the toughest guy in the room. You

255
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 7: really really don't. You can tell people, hey, I need

256
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 7: your help, and if you're really really a friend of somebody's,

257
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 7: you will help. You'll listen, You'll be better listeners for.

258

Speaker 5: It's I do want to before we go to break,

00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,480

00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 5: assume it's for most people out there that are listening,

343
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,919
Speaker 5: is sports entertainment. It is our diversion. It is what

344
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 5: gets us away from the really, really tough things about life,

345
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 5: because we all got tough things going on in our

346
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,679
Speaker 5: lives from time to time throughout life.

347
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 2: And uh. And so what we have been.

348
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 5: Charged with doing, what a lot of our job is

349
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 5: about here is it's being media for the Cowboys or

350
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,159

Speaker 2: year review.

367
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 5: We're going to talk a little bit about what's happened

368
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 5: over the first half of this season that's led the

369
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 5: Cowboys to a three five and one record. But you know,

370
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,920
Speaker 5: but there's one of the good things is we got

371
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,719
Speaker 5: a comedian. It's funeral on here with us.

372
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 4: The best part about a funeral is you got one

373
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 4: uncle that'll tell the jokers just kind of yeah, lift

374
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 4: it all off a little bit, you know what I mean.

375
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 3: So I've here.

376
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 5: You know, I've actually told my I told my wife

377
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 5: and my daughter. We were having a conversation about, you know, death,

378
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 5: and I told them, I said, when I passed away,

379
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 5: what I need you guys to do, don't spend money

380
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 5: on an expensive casket. Don't spend money on an expensive

381
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 5: bouquet of flowers.

382
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 2: I'm gone.

383
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 5: What I want you to do is, I want you

384
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 5: to take that money, and I want you to hire

385
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 5: the best comedian that you can get, and I want

386
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 5: you to bring them and I want you to have

387
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 5: a memorial service where you let that person talk about

388
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 5: my life in whatever term they want to talk about

389
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 5: it because my goal, because my goal is my goal

390
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 5: is I want everyone to leave there not having memorialized me,

391
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 5: but do it in a way to where everyone.

392
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 2: Walks away with a smile.

393
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 5: And and I think, I think that is how I want,

394
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 5: how I choose to be remember And that's also how

395
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 5: I deal with death personally. For me, like I've dealt

396
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 5: with death throughout my life, I dealt with as a

397
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 5: young person, and so it like comedy has been my outlet.

398
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 5: It's been my way to kind of deal with those emotions.

399
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:31,640
Speaker 5: And so I get that.

400
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 4: Likewise, I'm not getting fired today. But likewise, for sure,

401
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. You gotta you gotta kind

402
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 4: of loosen up the room and get everybody back on train.

403
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 7: I've I've got you beat already. Derek Helman told me

404
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:44,879
Speaker 7: he's going to deliver my eulogy.

405
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 2: That would David.

406
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 7: Hellman is going to stand up there and tell you about.

407
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 3: Can we last?

408
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 1: Oh?

409
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 7: Sure? Yeah. I hope it doesn't happen too soon. I've

410
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 7: already talked to Helmet.

411
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 3: Need you.

412
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 7: I've already talked to Helme and I said, listen, I

413
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 7: want you to go up there and stand up there,

414
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,919
Speaker 7: and talk about me when this is all same, that.

415
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 2: That is is better than any coming.

416
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 9: I think.

417
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 7: I think he'll encapsulate everything that I you know, the

418
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 7: LSU brothers that we are, but I think the age

419
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 7: difference and the fact that he and I he is,

420
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,479
Speaker 7: he is, he is one of my favorite people. So

421
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 7: but yeah, I know where you're going with that. I

422
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 7: understand what you're doing.

423
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 2: All right, here's what we're gonna do.

424
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 5: Let's talk a little bit about what's happened so far

425
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 5: in this first half of the season. My first question

426
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 5: for you guys is which was the better offensive addition,

427
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 5: George Pickens or Javonte Williams.

428
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 4: I'll speak for Willias because I know Brian's gonna talk

429
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 4: about Pickings. I got his answer, But I just think

430
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 4: Williams brings so much like toughness to the party, so

431
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 4: much tough running to the party, and that's infectious.

432
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 3: Pickings got some infections too, bro, Bra.

433
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 4: But but but you know, picking Williams kind of kind

434
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 4: of makes it easier for everybody else, which is why,

435
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 4: you know, like if I could tell Shotty one thing,

436
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 4: he don't watch the show, but if I could tell

437
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 4: shot is just just one thing, like hey man, even

438
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 4: if we're getting down in some of these games. Sometimes

439
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 4: I know it's tough, but try not to get away

440
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 4: from the run game. I know sometimes in this uh

441
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 4: you know, in this attempt to catch up to uh,

442
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 4: you know, the points and all this kind of stuff.

443
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 4: Defense may be down and you're trying to catch up fast.

444
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 4: It may benefit the Cowboys offense to catch up slow,

445
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 4: because as soon as you stop running, everything looks totally different.

446
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,400
Speaker 4: You look at Arizona Cardins Game Boy, the run game

447
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 4: was there. I would say even in Denver, the run

448
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 4: game was there. I just I just wish, you know,

449
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 4: we lean into that a little bit more. But Javonte

450
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 4: has been fantastic for and I don't think we can

451
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 4: afford him. I don't think we'll be able to bring

452
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,880
Speaker 4: him back. He's looking like a ten million dollar back

453
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 4: next year.

454
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 6: I'm gonna go with Pickens and damn right.

455
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 3: Hey manball talk.

456
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 7: Let her talk well, even.

457
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 6: Though even though I have you have seen we'll be quiet.

458
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 3: You're like, let her.

459
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,640
Speaker 6: Talk, but that won't be quiet.

460
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 3: Where you go.

461
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 2: Please let her talk.

462
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 3: Let her talk for more, ma'am.

463
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 6: Even though I have seen the same things that you

464
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 6: guys have seen as far as the different backs that

465
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 6: the Cowboys have carried over the years. Somehow I still

466
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 6: hold onto this belief that with a good offensive line

467
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 6: you can make most decent backs be successful. Sure, some

468
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 6: are tougher than others, and some will give you those

469
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 6: extra yards with that push, but I'm still holding onto

470
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 6: that theory. I don't know why because I've seen the

471
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 6: ones that haven't been as good, But as long as

472
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 6: you have a good offensive line, you're gonna get usually

473
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,639
Speaker 6: the best out of a running back. Now, with the

474
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 6: wide receivers, it's been a while since the Cowboys have

475
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 6: had two really good wide receivers. So yes, I'm putting

476
00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 6: that number one on my list because I'm enjoying what

477
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 6: i'm seeing. I was lacking some of that. I was

478
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 6: still in the whole wide receiver by committee era. Moving

479
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,360
Speaker 6: on from that, and now you feel like you're more subtled.

480
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 6: I do hope that they do give him a contract

481
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 6: because I want two wide receivers are stable, constant and

482
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 6: can keep going. Here with the Cowboys and George Pickens

483
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:27,360
Speaker 6: his special his special branding cooks, we saw some potential there,

484
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 6: but he never got really going. He had some success

485
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 6: Mike McCarthy he had a slight success but never really

486
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 6: worked out. So again, I'm just I'm enjoying a lot

487
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 6: more what I see from George Pickens. However, that's a

488
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 6: tough question, Derek, because they're bull valuable able.

489
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 7: I can't get over the soul. Mike McCarthy thinks it

490
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 7: ain't fake. It's not fake, you know what. To me,

491
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 7: this offense I think would completely have fallen apart Ceedee

492
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 7: Lamb went out for several games. And what happened. You

493
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 7: did not miss a beat, you really did. Your offense

494
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 7: was still functioning. Yeah, Williams running the football, the offensive line.

495
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,479
Speaker 7: I have some questions about your offensive line right now,

496
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 7: you know, to be honest with you. Yeah, But but

497
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 7: to me, you know Williams for what he did, I

498
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,880
Speaker 7: think this is we could talk about scheme, we could

499
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,640
Speaker 7: talk about coaching, we could talk about players. But Votch

500
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,160
Speaker 7: is right. He's shown a lot of toughness running the football,

501
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,640
Speaker 7: and I think that's something as admirable. But you think

502
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 7: about having this offense without Ceedee Lamb playing in it,

503
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 7: you know, Dak Prescott not having somebody to throw the

504
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 7: football to. George Pickens stepped up in those games he

505
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,639
Speaker 7: was out, and George Pickens every week gives you a

506
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 7: chance because he plays. He plays exceptional football. You know,

507
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 7: Williams is very has played very well. I think George

508
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 7: Pickens has played at at completely another level. And I

509
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 7: think there's there's a side of me that is this.

510
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 7: There's certain games, in certain situations where I think George

511
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 7: Pickens has been a better player than Ceedee lamb, go

512
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 7: ahead there, do the right thing.

513
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 5: I will tell you I agree with Amber and Bryant

514
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:10,680
Speaker 5: on this one mainly because mainly because when you when

515
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 5: you think about what George Pickens has done, and when

516
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 5: you think about the fact that quite frankly we're seeing

517
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,639
Speaker 5: right now from Rico dawdle, the Cowboys probably could have

518
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,879
Speaker 5: done this last season if they would have committed to

519
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 5: actually running the ball earlier in the season.

520
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't know that.

521
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't. I don't know that.

522
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 5: This is a so much about Javonte Williams as much

523
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,440
Speaker 5: as it is about shoddy and shoddy having an offensive

524
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 5: mind from the standpoint.

525
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,680
Speaker 2: Of we are going to run the ball. He does,

526
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 2: he does.

527
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 5: But but I do think the rico' dondle we're saying

528
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 5: it this year really good running back. He is a

529
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 5: really good running back, and Cowboys had him and did

530
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 5: not use him to that potential. And so yes, I

531
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 5: think Javonte Williams has been a great addition. I think

532
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 5: he does some things and I think personally he does

533
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,679
Speaker 5: some things that that that Rico maybe on the Rico's

534
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 5: game in the same way, I think the tough style

535
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 5: with which he runs, I think is a little bit

536
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,479
Speaker 5: unique to him relative to those two backs. But all

537
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 5: those things being considered, man, when Pickens came in here,

538
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 5: he changed the complexion of this offense.

539
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 2: And certainly I don't think.

540
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 5: They would have been able to move the ball because

541
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 5: we've seen this happen before when CD was out. If

542
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 5: they didn't have George Pickens, I don't think they would

543
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 5: have moved the ball effectively at all.

544
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 2: I think he has meant a ton of this team.

545
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 5: And I agree with you, Brian, I think at moments

546
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 5: that during this year, even when CD is in there,

547
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 5: he looks like he is he is the guy that's

548
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 5: been a little bit more productive for you at times.

549
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 2: But yeah, I go with you, guys with George Pickens

550
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:38,360
Speaker 2: on now.

551
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 4: Well, I tell you what this would be the last

552
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,679
Speaker 4: time I try to be a good podcaster, right, because

553
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,199
Speaker 4: the correct answer is pickings.

554
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 3: But yeah, let me take that. I was trying to

555
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 3: be a good podcast can't favorite.

556
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 7: Us a favorite? Then okay, you have another question real quick?

557
00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, take take no, take take.

558
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 7: The all right, I'm gonna take the Williams approach. You

559
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 7: take pickings.

560
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 4: I think some of your biggest plays come from come

561
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 4: from pickings. And you know, lamb may may be the

562
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 4: better work in the offense and move to chains and

563
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 4: and I don't want to. I don't feel right talking

564
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 4: about cde Lambing that way because he's a he's a

565
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 4: fantastic player as well. But all the big tests, sure,

566
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 4: all all the big plays, all the game change and plays,

567
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 4: all the when you need to catch the toe taps

568
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 4: on the sidelines, the big stuff, the pi s it

569
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 4: has it has been pickings for sure.

570
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, I tell you what. The thing with Williams though,

571
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 7: and you mentioned the element of toughness that he's brought.

572
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 7: He is a complete back. They've been searching for a

573
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 7: complete back here for a while, a guy that can

574
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 7: pick up. They don't use him enough to catching the ball.

575
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 7: By the way, that's another thing. But there there is

576
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 7: a you can make a really, really really good argument

577
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 7: some people can, others can't about Williams being the best

578
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:53,880
Speaker 7: player here, you know, in this situation. Yeah.

579
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:55,679
Speaker 5: The other thing out through on too, as you were

580
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 5: talking about CD and relative to George Pickens, Yeah, I

581
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 5: actually think it's a great thing that George Pickens has

582
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 5: had those moments because what it's going to do is

583
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 5: in the second half of this season. Watch what I'm

584
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 5: telling you. It means CD's gonna have some huge, humongous games.

585
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 5: And I think it's going to happen because teams have

586
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 5: to think about Pickings as justice lethal weapon as they

587
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,680
Speaker 5: do CD, and sometimes when you have that new addition

588
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,640
Speaker 5: to a team, teams still say we're gonna first take

589
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 5: away CD. We're gonna make you prove to us that

590
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 5: you can do it without CD or with a limited CD.

591
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 5: They've proven that now they know George Pickens can have

592
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 5: those kinds of games, and so I do think that

593
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 5: in the second half of the year you're gonna see

594
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 5: some of those games from CD where he's gonna just

595
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 5: go absolutely ham and have a great, great game because

596
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 5: he's got that other compliment on the other side of

597
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 5: the field. All right, let's move on to the next

598
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 5: question I have for you guys. Which of these players

599
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 5: is that is Dallas relying on most to have an

600
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 5: impactful second half. Trayvon Diggs, the Marve and Overshown are

601
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 5: Donovan Wilson.

602
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 3: I think I think Jerry put a ton of pressure

603
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 3: on the linebacker.

604
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 13: Man.

605
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 4: I think when you know Demo comes back, I mean,

606
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 4: it's it's on you and then his own flues.

607
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 3: But hey, man, we got you a.

608
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 4: I mean, after the trades, it's all on over Shawk,

609
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 4: it's all on I think it is all on Ocean.

610
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 5: Now.

611
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 4: You can be like, hey, we got you quinn in

612
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 4: to help over shonn Yea, or we got you Logan

613
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 4: to assist we overshow, But this is this is Overshon's

614
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 4: problem right now. So I think the cawboy if he

615
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 4: shows up as that guy, and it's so unfair to

616
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 4: ask of him off a major injury like that, but boy,

617
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 4: he did it last year. I thought I thought that

618
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 4: that last year's Andrey was going to be a set back,

619
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 4: and he was ten toes down whipping feet. So I

620
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 4: would just hope that he does the same thing.

621
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 3: Please, my question.

622
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 6: So with Logan Logan, when he was traded, I know

623
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 6: it was mentioned a lot he is automatically your best linebacker.

624
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 6: Was that taking into consideration like a healthy overshown or

625
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 6: what the word the overshown line up there?

626
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, well we all knew that that he was go

627
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 4: to come back but be more of like a will

628
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 4: linebacker type guy. So I think we're looking for Mike's.

629
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 4: We're looking for Mike's and you know, green dyke backers.

630
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 4: And I still think they're gonna maybe move green dot

631
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 4: around because Logan just got here. I don't know, we'll

632
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 4: see it just depends on how fast he can, you know,

633
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 4: pick things up. But I think we've always thought it's

634
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 4: overshown and who uh will be so positive to day man,

635
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say that's about nobody man, But.

636
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, Logan, But but yeah, Logan Wilson.

637
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 4: I knew Logan was gonna come right in and we

638
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 4: would just get better by simply just playing him a

639
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 4: little bit more.

640
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 5: Of as a sign up real quick, you said Mike

641
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 5: linebacker For those who don't know, that means middle linebacker.

642
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 5: He said, will linebacker. That means weak line week side

643
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 5: linebacker for those that don't don't don't know that furbige.

644
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 4: I can get I can get super nerd and tell

645
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 4: you sometime the Mike ain't always the mic.

646
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 3: But that is fair.

647
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair.

648
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm just saying in general terms, when you hear

649
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 5: Mike music, the middle here will usually that's the week

650
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 5: side weeks who.

651
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 7: Won the defenses? Running down? Anybody who in the like

652
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 7: the first nine ten weeks is run down. You talk

653
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 7: about pressure, Yeah, they don't. They don't have they haven't

654
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 7: had any speed on defense. Now you potentially have that speedback.

655
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 7: Who's the guy that's going to make plays behind the

656
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 7: line of scrimmage, Who's the guy that's going to run

657
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,479
Speaker 7: somebody down in the flat? Who's the guy that's going

658
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 7: to make maybe a blitz of a sack. They haven't

659
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 7: had that guy. You talked about pressure, Yeah, it's clearly

660
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 7: on that that that zero out there. I mean, he

661
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 7: is a he is they that he is going to

662
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,959
Speaker 7: hopefully bring to them something they haven't had in nine games,

663
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 7: and that's somebody that can play with the burst and

664
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 7: can finish plays because this this defense has been giving

665
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 7: up huge plays and hopefully he'll be a guy that

666
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 7: will limit some of those.

667
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 2: Well, here's the deal.

668
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 6: You mentioned Trevon, But then when when are you expecting

669
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 6: him back?

670
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 5: Look, that's the thing, here's my deal. I look at

671
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 5: these players and the ones I just named, I heard

672
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 5: you say is the easy answer.

673
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 2: I don't think it is. Because they got they got

674
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 2: help for.

675
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 5: The defensive line, they got helpful the linebackers. They didn't

676
00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 5: bring in any help for the secondary. And Brian, you

677
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 5: just mentioned all those big plays. A lot of those

678
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 5: big plays right now are happening deep down the field.

679
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 5: You got issues where your secondary is having some issues.

680
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 5: We've been hearing about communication since the beginning of the season.

681
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 5: So for me, when I look at this question, yes,

682
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 5: I think Demarveon overshown should help. I think right now

683
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 5: the biggest area where they're going to need and the

684
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 5: question was who is Dallas relying on most to have

685
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 5: an impactful second half? I think it has to be

686
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 5: one of those guys in the secondary, because if they

687
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 5: don't get that impactful second half from one of those

688
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 5: guys and this secondary doesn't solidify, I don't care how

689
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 5: much help you got for the defensive line, how much

690
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 5: help you got for the linebackers, you're still gonna have problems,

691
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 5: especially against some of these teams you got to play

692
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 5: that have some really really big time receiving options and

693
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 5: really good quarterbacks. That's gonna be a challenge for them

694
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 5: if they can't get that level of play when those

695
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 5: guys come back.

696
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 7: I think you have a better chance. This is going

697
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 7: to sound crazy with what guys like Revel and Carson

698
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 7: and those guys showing up that.

699
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 5: Which, by the way, you've you mentioned on the break

700
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 5: sounds like Revel is gonna Revel.

701
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 7: Revel and overshow both are full goes. So there's a

702
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 7: possibility that you know, both of them are going to

703
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 7: be active this week playing and how much you use Revel,

704
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 7: you know, but you're you're you're absolutely right. You're going

705
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 7: to need somebody in the secondary play. And my hope

706
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 7: is though that you know that one of these guys

707
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 7: that I just mentioned does show up. And I know

708
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 7: he hasn't played. We haven't ever seen him play. Heck,

709
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 7: we haven't seen him play a preseason game. But you

710
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 7: know what, to me, there there needs to be some

711
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 7: changes in the back end and maybe you can get

712
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 7: you know, let's be honest, Bland did not play very

713
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 7: well last week, but we've seen Bland play better. Unfortunately,

714
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 7: though this secondary is not good and and there's been

715
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 7: it hasn't been good with Digs playing in some of

716
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 7: those games. So I think there, I think that's something

717
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 7: we need to look at and.

718
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 6: See your question a little differently because on one and

719
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 6: expectation wise, I expect more out of over Shown because

720
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 6: we know what he can do, We're excited about his

721
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 6: comeback and all of that. At the same time, you

722
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 6: get some help at defensive tackle, which in essence is

723
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 6: going to help the linebacker position, which you also got

724
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 6: help at, and now you're adding Overshown. So even if

725
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,279
Speaker 6: he struggles a little bit, I think you're gonna, at

726
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,239
Speaker 6: least me, I'm gonna cut him some slack because he's

727
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 6: returning from a pretty big significant injury. Now moving on

728
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 6: to the secondary, Trevon Diggs at this point, I don't

729
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 6: know what to say because I'm still I know, with

730
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 6: the whole concussion thing, it's been mentioned, he's under his

731
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 6: other injury on what is it that they need that

732
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 6: he's still struggling with and all that, But I think

733
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 6: the biggest pressure is right there. I don't know what

734
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 6: it looks like in the contract. I know he got

735
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,359
Speaker 6: it not too long ago, but at this point, let's

736
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 6: say he doesn't do much. I mean, do you cut

737
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 6: him by the end of the like heading into next year.

738
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 6: I don't know contract wise what it looks like. But

739
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,720
Speaker 6: at the end of the day, what has he actually

740
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 6: given you this year? And yes, I'm being also, you

741
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 6: have to look at the injuries. You can't dismiss that.

742
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,080
Speaker 6: But at the same time, you you hear things and

743
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 6: you see things, and it's just like all kind of

744
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 6: pilot up.

745
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,359
Speaker 5: Well, I think I think that's the conversation that will

746
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 5: be had at the end of the season.

747
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 2: I think for right now, and it's one of the

748
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 2: things I've I've.

749
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:22,879
Speaker 6: Been very That's what I'm saying.

750
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 2: He would be the one I think about his pressure.

751
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,279
Speaker 5: I think I think Dallas is a better team with

752
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 5: him on it right now, and so I think they

753
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 5: are relying on him. I think on him when he

754
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 5: comes back. If they're going to have any kind of

755
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 5: success for the rest of the season, they're gonna need

756
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 5: Trayvon Diggs to be Trayvon Diggs. They're gonna need to

757
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 5: be They're gonna need him to be the guy that

758
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 5: he's been at his best for this team because that.

759
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 7: Level Land just needs to be thrown.

760
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 3: Agree with that.

761
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 5: But I'll tell you this, I'm not as concerned about

762
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,439
Speaker 5: Bland because Blaine had a bad game. But we've seen

763
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 5: Bland even what was this two three weeks ago, he

764
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 5: had a really great game. I think Bland is a guy,

765
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 5: by the way, playing cornerback in the National Football League.

766
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,720
Speaker 2: There are gonna be days like that. Trust me, They're.

767
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,280
Speaker 5: Gonna watch any cornerback in the league. There are gonna

768
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 5: be days like that when man, you just you getting

769
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 5: you're getting beat up, and that's gonna happen.

770
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 2: But that being said, I'm not worried about Bland right now.

771
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 5: I just think from the standpoint of getting his body right,

772
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 5: more than anything else, that's what you need from Treyvon

773
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 5: dis because I think a Trayvon dig a healthy Trayvon

774
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 5: Digs is more than capable providing for the secondary what

775
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 5: they need. He just got to get his body right,

776
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 5: and if he can get his body right, I think

845
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:37,800
Speaker 5: for you guys before we end the show today. I

846
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,879
Speaker 5: got four names. Which of these players will be most

847
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 5: impactful for Dallas with more playing time?

848
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:44,360
Speaker 7: Stop it?

849
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:45,440
Speaker 3: What's going on? Man?

850
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 5: Ryan LLINOI, Nate Thomas, Debian Clowney or Brevins van Ford?

851
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:52,959
Speaker 3: What was the question?

852
00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:59,799
Speaker 2: Which of these players will be more impactful?

853
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 3: With more playing time, all right, and name again please, Yeah.

854
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 5: Ryan Flinoy, Nate Thomas, Youdevian Clowney for Brevin Span.

855
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 3: For clown Clowny Cloudy. Okay.

856
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 4: Uh So where I'm at, where I'm at with that

857
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 4: room in particular. Uh, you know, there's a lot of

858
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 4: rotating going on. I think it's in the uh it's

859
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 4: in white Cotton's tool belt to like rotate all this, guys,

860
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 4: I think you need to like hunker down on a

861
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 4: little bit of that. And they have been doing that,

862
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,919
Speaker 4: which I've noticed. But I kind of want to play

863
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,880
Speaker 4: the best guys the most, So I need Donvinezaraku to

864
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 4: get most to go, and also I need Clowney to

865
00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 4: get most to go. Just come off when you tied,

866
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:37,880
Speaker 4: and we'll just move on from there, just for the

867
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,920
Speaker 4: sake of podcasting. You know, we were just up here talking.

868
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:44,319
Speaker 4: I think Brevin should get a clup. More shots too,

869
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:48,920
Speaker 4: shots out, don't Luke man. Luke hadn't necessarily done anything

870
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 4: to lose his job, per se, you know what I mean.

871
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 4: He ain't messing up, he ain't doing nothing wrong. But

872
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 4: I think Brevin gives you so much more as a

873
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 4: blocker and then when he catches the football, he's two

874
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,719
Speaker 4: hundred and seventy He's a big dude. Cornerbacks ain't really

875
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 4: trying to tackle two hundred and seventy pounds. And when

876
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 4: we've seen Brevin catch passes, it looks that way. When

877
00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 4: when we've seen him thrash people blocking, it's been that way.

878
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 4: You ain't got a fire Luke or nothing like that.

879
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 4: But I would love to see a little bit more

880
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 4: Brevin and consistently more Clowny. He need to be starting

881
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:19,320
Speaker 4: with Novinez Rocket.

882
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

883
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 6: I think all of those names are really good ones,

884
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 6: and they could all benefit from having more playing time.

885
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 6: But for me, the one that stands out the most

886
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 6: would be Clowny, mainly because it's in an area that

887
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,880
Speaker 6: you really really need extra help, You really need to

888
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,439
Speaker 6: be more impactful in there. So we've seen we've started

889
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 6: seeing flashes of him, and I wonder, now, even with

890
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 6: the new addition, how much better that can improve? How

891
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 6: much more can you get to the quarterback? So I

892
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:53,360
Speaker 6: would say Clowney mainly because of the position.

893
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,800
Speaker 7: Man, I'll tell you this is the game that's dangerous

894
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,320
Speaker 7: because I'm screaming for Nate Thomas to play and he

895
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 7: goes out gives up a bunch of pressures the other

896
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 7: day at right tackle. I'm worried about that, you know.

897
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,360
Speaker 7: So you know, if if I felt really good about it,

898
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 7: I would say, yeah, put Nate Thomas in at right tackle.

899
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 7: Let's go. And maybe it's a deal where if you

900
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 7: put him in there for sixty plays and not you know,

901
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:17,839
Speaker 7: and not just nineteen, that you might have a better

902
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,640
Speaker 7: or hell you might give up more pressures. Who knows.

903
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:22,800
Speaker 7: It was just a poor game for him overall in it.

904
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:25,359
Speaker 7: It kind of hurt my confidence a little bit there

905
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,520
Speaker 7: with him. But I'll say this though, I think it's

906
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:32,600
Speaker 7: spanned Ford and I and you talk about schoon Maker,

907
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 7: you know, I think there's things that span Ford absolutely

908
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 7: does better than Luke Skoonmaker. I think the blocking aspect

909
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,719
Speaker 7: of it is clearly better. Like he now catches the

910
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 7: football pretty well. And I think you could you could

911
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 7: get stuff out of him for him just coming in

912
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,839
Speaker 7: the game as a point of attack player, an occasional

913
00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 7: guy here and there. I don't think I think you

914
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 7: need to hit give him more second team reps real quick.

915
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:55,120
Speaker 5: On the On the topic of Nate Thomas, could it

916
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 5: have been that maybe he's been spending a lot more

917
00:42:57,719 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 5: time on the left side than the right, and then

918
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 5: throwing him in the right maybe he just wasn't as

919
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:02,800
Speaker 5: ready for that.

920
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,359
Speaker 7: And then they scream at us because they're like, well

921
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 7: what about playing guy and at right tackle? You know,

922
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 7: then you know, we forget that. We act like there

923
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,720
Speaker 7: is it's a difference. Left tackle and right tackle is different.

924
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:16,880
Speaker 2: And when we seen him at left tackle, Nate's been

925
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 2: pretty good. That's where it is.

926
00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 5: I want to at least give him the benefit of

927
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:22,640
Speaker 5: the doubt. Abe, this was one that maybe the situation

928
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:25,799
Speaker 5: where he was not as prepared to play right tackle.

929
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:28,840
Speaker 7: I think I think he has to be ready regardless.

930
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 7: I think he has to be ready, you know. And

931
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 7: I'm sure some scout team reps they put him in

932
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 7: at right tackle left you know, he's got to be

933
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 7: ready regardless. But like I said, there was there was

934
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 7: a time, maybe a couple of weeks ago. What I've

935
00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:42,800
Speaker 7: just my answer would have been immediately, Nate, Tom and

936
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 7: I have I have concerns about about steel. I have

937
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:49,480
Speaker 7: concerns there and but we've heard the coaches have come

938
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 7: out here recently and talked about there is a legitimate

939
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 7: competition at right tackle, so you know we might get

940
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 7: our wish on that one.

941
00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 4: Terrence has had his issues and it should be a competition. Yeah,

942
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:04,320
Speaker 4: I think sometimes, you know, I'll just say we include myself,

943
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 4: But we get a little too much dip on our chip.

944
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 3: With the new guy sometimes, you know, I totally.

945
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 4: Sometimes we read a new guy and go, hey man,

946
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 4: he looked good versus whoever, let's play him a lot more.

947
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 4: And you know, consistency takes a lot more than just

948
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:23,279
Speaker 4: looking good against whoever cared, you know what I mean?

949
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 4: Sometimes we get a little too ahead of ourselves. Terres

950
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:28,839
Speaker 4: may be making you sick, but Terres.

951
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 3: Couldn't feel that way.

952
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,239
Speaker 7: Do you feel that way real quick? About corner? That

953
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 7: too much dip under chip?

954
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 1: Or is it?

955
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 7: Or you've seen about which new guy just like a

956
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 7: Carson uh revel And I mean, we haven't seen, but

957
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 7: when we saw Carson play that day. The fact that

958
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 7: the guy is new and we haven't seen is that

959
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 7: where we're at right now? You're just thinking or it

960
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:51,600
Speaker 7: couldn't be any worse.

961
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:54,399
Speaker 4: I think the difference there is that I saw Nate

962
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,239
Speaker 4: all Camp, I saw all Camp, I saw all these guys.

963
00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:57,879
Speaker 7: That's fair.

964
00:44:58,160 --> 00:44:59,840
Speaker 3: We got three coiners. I don't know what they like.

965
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 4: I don't know what what Josh Butler looks like this year.

966
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:06,719
Speaker 4: Revel Kaitlyn played thirty something play last game, but just

967
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,000
Speaker 4: prior to that, I had no clue. So I think

968
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 4: it's time to just kind of try those guys just

969
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:11,840
Speaker 4: to see what they have.

970
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 5: Let's also be clear, I think, for at least I'll

971
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 5: speak for myself. I'm taking clues from what I'm seeing

972
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 5: on the field. It seems like the Cowboys are kind

973
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:22,839
Speaker 5: of searching for who those guys are because they're moving

974
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,040
Speaker 5: around different games, they have different guys out there. It

975
00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:27,800
Speaker 5: feels like they are like, we haven't quite found the

976
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 5: right grouping of cornerbacks that we feel like are our guys,

977
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 5: like they are the guys we're gonna rely on now.

978
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 5: As part of that, they've been these injuries, people going

979
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 5: in and out. But I do think it feels like

980
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 5: there isn't a solidified group. And from that standpoint, I

981
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 5: think I look at it and say, well, who are

982
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 5: the other guys that should be a part of this conversation, because.

983
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 4: I don't think they've really settled on who the guys

984
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 4: really are. I kind of blame that on flues. We're

985
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 4: doing some of these first three weeks. Now we're doing

986
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 4: something different the next three weeks. Now we're trying something

987
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 4: else this next three weeks, and it's kind of hard

988
00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:00,759
Speaker 4: to get a feel for who your corner group should be.

989
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 4: We just had to we just had to talk here, like, Hey,

990
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:04,920
Speaker 4: we may get a different group of corners because we're

991
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 4: gonna play more man this week, or a different set

992
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 4: of these guys we're playing more zone versus this quarterback.

993
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,279
Speaker 4: I don't think you should have a rotating group of

994
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 4: six corners like that. I'm gonna steal your question real quick.

995
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 4: Could you play next to the Quinn Williams next to him?

996
00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:20,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's on a situation, like I will put it

997
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 5: like this, I am very much comfortable with almost any

998
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:28,840
Speaker 5: of the other defensive tackles being next to him on

999
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 5: specific downs based on what you're trying to get and

1000
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,879
Speaker 5: the matchups, because I might want different things, Like I think,

1001
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 5: if I really want to be stout because I got

1002
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,400
Speaker 5: again a team where that's really gonna try to run

1003
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:41,279
Speaker 5: the ball, put him and Kenny out there together and

1004
00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:43,879
Speaker 5: let's see what happens with that. I think they're gonna

1005
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 5: all rotate throughout the game. Sure, if I want to

1006
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 5: get more upfield, and this is a game where I

1007
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 5: really got to get some internal some pressure on the inside,

1008
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:53,319
Speaker 5: on the interior, then then maybe it's it's osa right,

1009
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 5: and I just think it fluctuates.

1010
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 2: I just all four of them.

1011
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 5: I like all four of your defensive tackles right now,

1012
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:01,200
Speaker 5: and I'm like, mix them and match them. However you

1013
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 5: want to mix them and match them, because I think

1014
00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:04,279
Speaker 5: you're going to be better off than when you were

1015
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 5: two weeks ago.

1016
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 4: Will this team on first down verse the Raiders first

1017
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 4: player of the game, which is supposed to be a

1018
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 4: running down, Will they put your money man veteran here,

1019
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:18,160
Speaker 4: team captain got on the bench because Clark and Quinn

1020
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:19,440
Speaker 4: are more stout versed.

1021
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,360
Speaker 2: To run, I would. I can't tell you what they

1022
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:23,279
Speaker 2: would do, but I would.

1023
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,440
Speaker 3: I ask you what they'll do? What they would do?

1024
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:28,439
Speaker 4: See see what we would do is easy answers because

1025
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 4: we all think we make sense. What they would do gets.

1026
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,279
Speaker 5: And by the way, and by the way, they have

1027
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:39,000
Speaker 5: other things to consider too, sure, because because their decisions

1028
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:41,440
Speaker 5: reverberate in the locker room, and you have to be

1029
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 5: aware of how's decision going to play in the locker room,

1030
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 5: how is it going to affect the people that are

1031
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,359
Speaker 5: around them on a day to day basis, And well,

1032
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 5: I don't have to deal with that. I'm just like, hey,

1033
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:52,719
Speaker 5: I just I'll throw this guy out there. So I

1034
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,360
Speaker 5: have a hard time thinking, oh, so it's not a starter.

1035
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 5: When you get to that game, I know, can Quinn

1036
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,280
Speaker 5: William's gonna start like, there's no way he doesn't start.

1037
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 2: Right, So that maybe that's your answer.

1038
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:08,880
Speaker 4: He'll quinnin Williams and Logan Wilson a dagum captain badge.

1039
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:10,879
Speaker 4: Because there was captains where they came from, they gonna

1040
00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 4: be captains here too.

1041
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 5: All right, man, we appreciate you guys joining us. I
