Speaker 1: setting the toad. And then we've got just Navarrez a Well, ladies,

10
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 1: it's been a minute since we've been in the STU.

11
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 1: We had to take yesterday off because Mike McCarthy's press

12
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: conference went a little bit later than normal, and then

13
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: we are back on track today. So we have got

14
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: shows today and tomorrow to get you guys ready for

15
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: happymatch against the forty nine ers. But we are going

16
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: to spend the bulk of today talking about all of

17
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 1: the good things that happened on Monday against the Tampa

18
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers. Lady, they finally did it, first playoff win,

19
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: first playoff road win. It felt good to get that

20
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: monkey off of their back and now they focus and

21
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: a lot of really positive things that happened in that game.

22
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: It was the largest margin of victory in the postseason

23
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: seventeen points. They had four hundred and twenty five total

24
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: net yards in the win, and they improved two thirty

25
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: six and twenty nine in the postseason. That is now

26
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 1: tied with Green Bay in Pittsburgh for the second most

27
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: playoff wins in NFL history. So this is a team

28
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: that is used to winning in the postseason. It's been

29
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: a minute since they've done it consistently, but they're back

30
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: on track. They of course have a big challenge in

31
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty nine ers coming up on Sunday.

32
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 1: But ladies, a big, big, big reason for the win

33
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: against Tampa Bay and the Buccaneers was the quarterback Dak Prescott.

34
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: An unreal perform personally. I think it was his best

35
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: game ever. I've got some numbers that I want to

36
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: read off, but I want to go to you guys first.

37
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: What impressed you about Dak Prescott. I think for me,

38
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: it was one of those games that you can tell

39
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: he was just playing his most confident and he felt

40
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,959
Speaker 1: to the communication. He knew his guys were going to

41
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,959
Speaker 1: be where they were. Everybody was on the same page,

42
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: and that is what we've been missing, is those times

43
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: where everybody's communicating, well, hi Jazz, everybody is, you know,

44
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 1: doing what they need to do. They're in their spot,

45
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: they're communicating. Well. There's just been a lot going forward

46
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: or going backwards to where you look at these guys

47
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,519
Speaker 1: and you wonder what the MISSQ was and what was

48
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: going on. This was Dak Prescott at his best, is

49
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: most confident, and the best thing is we finally got

50
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 1: to put the end to the conversation of the interceptions.

51
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: I'm just so proud of him for that because that

52
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: alone key too confidence moving into the rest of their

53
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: playoff journey. Twenty five or thirty three for three hundred

54
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: and five yards, four passing touchdowns, one rushing touchdown. Jess

55
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 1: mentioned he had zero interceptions a one forty three point

56
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: three passer rating in that game. Aisha, what was impressive

57
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: about QB one for you? Oh? So, I I don't know,

58
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: Maybe it's just me. I don't want to be unfair,

59
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: but I've been watching Dak since I think he was

60
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: in since he was in college, and one thing about

61
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 1: him is that I can tell how the game is

62
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 1: gonna go by his mechanics right away. You can tell

63
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 1: by his feet, you can tell about how comfortable he is,

64
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: and he just like Jess said, he just seemed like

65
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: he was he was there, he was so dialed in.

66
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: But the preparation across the line, like he was comfortable.

67
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 1: You could tell the whole offense was comfortable with what

68
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: they were doing, and he responded to that. And the mobility,

69
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: you know, the escapability, the scramble drill, just seeing him

70
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: do so many of the things that I feel like

71
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: make him great, make him great, the things that other

72
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: quarterbacks can't do. Throwing the ball to your left, to

73
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: your right right, I mean, he waited to the last

74
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: minute to let that ball go on the sidelines to

75
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: the dull show cy like guys can't do that. That's

76
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: not normal. So you know, I'm like to see some

77
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: of his best qualities, the run in ability, just not

78
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: afraid to put to dip his shoulder, which is terrifying

79
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: to us, I guess, but to him, no, Like he's

80
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: really felt like he put all the good things about

81
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 1: his game together and I think it was a pleasure

82
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 1: to see that as someone that's been as all of us.

83
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: I'm sure I've been following his career as long as

84
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: we have. He is the first NFL quarterback. This stat

85
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: really got me. He's the first NFL quarterback to have

86
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: four postseason appearances in which he had a rushing touchdown

87
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: and a passing touchdown. So when you talk about getting

88
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: it done with your legs as well as through the air,

89
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott did that. But some more impressive numbers. I

90
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,919
Speaker 1: love the pr staff when they send us out the

91
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: postgame staff some more impressive stuff. Abou Dak Prescott. In

92
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: this one, he was the sixth NFL quarterback to record

93
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: both a passing touchdown and a rushing score in four

94
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: career post games. He's been the game with a one

95
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: hundred forty three passer rating. He had four straight scoring

96
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: scoring drives to start the scoring for the Cowboys. He

97
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: had a seventy five point eight percent completion rate that's

98
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: good for the second highest in postgame team history. But

99
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,919
Speaker 1: my favorite stat that was not quite a stat. It

100
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 1: was just something I found in the trends that I

101
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: was looking at in all of the receivers that he

102
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: threw to, or a few mixed in Tony Pollard and

103
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott, every single one of them caught fifty percent

104
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 1: or more of their targets. So when you talk about

105
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott getting it done as well, you mentioned it.

106
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: This entire offense was firing on all cylinders and it

107
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: was so impressive. I love that you brought up the

108
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 1: deck where he was running. It was sideline and we

109
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 1: were all like, oh, here we go, interception. The way

110
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: he was threading the needle on some of these passes,

111
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: like there was one across the middle to I believe

112
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: it was either Michael Gallup or Noah Brown. It went

113
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: right over the middle. Triple coverage by the time the

114
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 1: ball got there, and just the ability to see that,

115
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: the ability to sling that in there, and then kudos

116
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: to the receivers for being able to catch that as well.

117
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: But just a lot of really good stuff from Dak

118
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 1: this week. He also passed Tony Romo for fourth most

119
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 1: passing yards in postseason play in franchise history. He now

120
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: has thirteen hundred and fifty three passing yards in the postseason.

121
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: It's pretty good. Yeah, No, I mean, and you mentioned

122
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: him seeing everything, dude, Like I saw somebody on Twitter

123
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: say like if Dad's gonna play like this, Like, ay,

124
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: it is what it is at this point because when

125
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: you're a quarterback seeing everything then is like you have

126
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,359
Speaker 1: to say to yourself, like, so what's is unless he

127
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: picks a bad place and not going to be a

128
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: bad play, like, because there's a a solution in football,

129
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 1: there's a solution to every play and for your quarterback

130
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: to see it and know what to get, even even

131
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: things as simple as just a little little dump offs,

132
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: you know, just a little just to make the decision

133
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 1: of hey, no, I can't, I can't fit that down there,

134
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 1: just to make that decision, I feel like, decision making

135
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 1: the pace they went tempo a couple of times, like

136
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: the control that he had over this game and never

137
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: felt like Tampa Bay had any say soul and what

138
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: went on in this game, and that is next level.

139
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: That's when you talk about is your quarterback stepping into

140
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: like that next realm of quarterbacks. For him to completely

141
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: dictate the way that game was played was important, I

142
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: think for this team moving forward, just to be able

143
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 1: to step on a field be lad. I know how

144
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: we here and you know it's interesting, is I'm looking

145
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: at his playoff game so far. In the stats from

146
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: all of those, twenty sixteen obviously the most impressive up

147
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: until Monday, where he had a one hundred and three

148
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: point two quarterback rating, and then of course this one

149
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: one hundred and forty three point three there. So what's

150
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: interesting is you look at the history with all of this,

151
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: and within this game, Dak had the most touchdowns, He

152
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: had the best touchdown percentage, zero interceptions. This was the

153
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: first time in Dak Prescott's playoff history that is that

154
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: he did not have an interception in a game, And

155
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: of course it's just very interesting to go back and

156
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: look at all of these zero fumbles. He only had

157
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: one back in twenty twenty one, and it's just so

158
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: good to see the progression that he's had within this

159
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: time and postseason dakts here. I mean, we were talking

160
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: about this and it's so funny because you hear them

161
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: in the locker room talking about we don't hear the

162
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,679
Speaker 1: outside noise, and no, he really didn't hear any outside noise.

163
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: He came with a mission and it was very obvious.

164
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: I love to my mentor, Laura Oakman, who works for

165
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: Fox Sports. She also does some stuff with Westwood One.

166
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: She was at that game in Tampa Bay on Monday,

167
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 1: and there was a moment that was captured between her

168
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,439
Speaker 1: and Dak and Mike McCarthy that was kind of circulating.

169
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: So she gave some context to that on social media

170
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 1: today and she was talking about a few weeks ago

171
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: or a few weeks ago last year when Dak had

172
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: the ankle injury and how Mike McCarthy had given him

173
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: a ride home at one point and they sat on

174
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: the porch and just talked. Michael, m Mike and dacted.

175
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 1: They just talked, and Dak told Laura, you know, it's

176
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: it's different when you're playing for a guy like that.

177
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: It's different when you have your head coach who is

178
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,319
Speaker 1: not just your head coach, right, He's not just there

179
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: to go over the schematics, to go over the reads,

180
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: to go over you know, your quarterback play with you,

181
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: but a guy who's going to be there for you.

182
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: And I think it was instrumental in Dak that nobody,

183
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,439
Speaker 1: including Mike McCarthy has wavered with their confidence in Dak.

184
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: I mean every time we've asked about the interceptions, it's

185
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: been there's no issues. You know, he'll work through it.

186
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: It's just it's just a part of it. We've talked about,

187
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: you know, I've been very adamant and saying like we've

188
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: got to do something about it, like and I love that.

189
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: The To me, this is kind of textbook Dak. This

190
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: is why we fell in love with him as a quarterback.

191
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 1: Was you know, he talks about being an aggressive quarterback.

192
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: He talks about being that guy, and then to see

193
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: it after you know, missing it for so many weeks.

194
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: I think it was really impressive on that front. But

195
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 1: he of course had some help. We talked before the

196
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: game in our last podcast about getting the tight ends involved.

197
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 1: The tight ends, in my opinion, were spectacular. I think

198
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: they were game changers. We also begged and pleaded to

199
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,719
Speaker 1: have Michael Gallup involved in the game. Michael Gallup got

200
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 1: back into it. But I want to talk about the

201
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 1: tight ends first because I think not only obviously we

202
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: had Dalton Scholtz have one of the best games of

203
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 1: his career from scoring standpoint, but just their ability to

204
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: help in some other areas. Where did you guys kind

205
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 1: of see the tight ends really make an impact in

206
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: that game. Well, the course of the last part of

207
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 1: the year, I felt like they've the blocking hasn't been amazing,

208
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,439
Speaker 1: but I felt like in key instances in this game,

209
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 1: there were some serious blocks thrown by some of these

210
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: tight ends. I know, you want to talk about Dalton

211
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: shows like I was just impressed with everyone's I mean,

212
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 1: but that's how you know your team's locked in when

213
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 1: you have like CD throwing a block down the field

214
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,959
Speaker 1: and there was just a collective of like, hey, let's

215
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: be involved. And even McKey, Sean McEwan, I see him

216
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: and I call him chippy because you need that physical

217
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: aspect in the game, even if you're not doing anything spectacular.

218
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,319
Speaker 1: I don't he didn't catch a ball, but you can

219
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: see him on tape just the last minute, just pushing

220
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: a guy out the way, just push him on the ground,

221
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: you know, just it sounds really but that's what you're

222
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 1: asking for in the run game, in these in these

223
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: past protection situations, and I felt like the tight ends

224
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 1: and certain key instances blocked well, yeah, I was. I

225
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: was trying to go back through my notes and look

226
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,679
Speaker 1: where there was there was a key block by Dalton

227
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 1: Schultz and I'm trying to find where exactly it was.

228
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 1: But when he did it, I went oh all right, Dalton,

229
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 1: I see you being physical. That's that's great. I Mean

230
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,199
Speaker 1: what I really loved out of this game, in particular

231
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: for the tight ends in terms of blocking, was this

232
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: was their best game in terms of being available to

233
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 1: be those guys when they need it. I mean, that's

234
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: why Dak was able to roll out the pocket, he

235
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 1: was able to use his legs so much. He had

236
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 1: everybody blocking for him. I mean every single person on

237
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: that off and said you're not touching my quarterback. Even

238
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup had a couple of blocks of was like, okay,

239
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: I see you. I mean there was just so much

240
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: versatility again with this offense and the tight ends, and

241
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 1: that's what this team has been lacking since even go

242
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: back to the Vikings game. That's what was working for them.

243
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: That's when those tight ends really stuck out. And when

244
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: you get the tight ends involved, you get the versatility

245
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 1: of Oh, Dalton Schultz is on the field, Oh Jake

246
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: Ferguson's on the field, what are they going to do?

247
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 1: Are they going to go along downfield or is he

248
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: going to be a blocking threat. So again, when you

249
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: have the ability and the talent to confuse those opposing

250
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,959
Speaker 1: defenses because you have such a tight knit tight end room,

251
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: use it to your advantage. Kellen Moore, all flowers to

252
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: him and kudos to him for using that and utilizing

253
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: it to its best this week. Oh sorry, Now, I

254
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 1: think one thing he did, Dalton Schultz does really well

255
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: that doesn't get a lot of attention, and we saw

256
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: it in this game as well, his ability to even

257
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: take the dbs other dbs out of the play, just

258
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: to carry them out of the play, just to be

259
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,719
Speaker 1: a decoy to be there, you know. And Ferguson did

260
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: it a couple of times as well. Like those are

261
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: things that again don't stroke up on the stat sheet,

262
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 1: but get other guys open, like and that willingness to

263
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: play together is important. So I just want to point

264
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 1: out that about those Schultz as well. Yeah I was,

265
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 1: I'm trying to find something on Twitter for us to

266
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 1: talk about it in a minute, but you brought up

267
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: Jake Ferguson, and I love that because even he you know,

268
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,839
Speaker 1: took advance. You talk about taking advantage of your opportunities.

269
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 1: I think this tight end group has been spectacular when

270
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: they get opportunities. I'm really sad that we lost Peyton

271
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: for a little bit. He wasn't in the locker room today,

272
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 1: so we weren't able to really get an update on that,

273
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 1: but I'm sure that will be a question for Mike

274
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: McCarthy come tomorrow when we get to speak to him.

275
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: But you bring up blocking, and I loved this play

276
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,079
Speaker 1: that came in the second quarter. It's set up Dak's

277
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:55,079
Speaker 1: little scamper outside touchdown score where they're all lined up,

278
00:13:55,679 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: Jake bodies, he bodies his offensive lineman and off spins

279
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: off and that's how he was able to get open.

280
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: And then the yak ability, right, We've talked about that

281
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard being the Yak god, so to speak, but

282
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 1: these tight ends being able to kind of shift the

283
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: way they are playing, to be more versatile, to be

284
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: able to get down the field. So for him to

285
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: take advantage of that opportunity to set up his team

286
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: for the score. I just thought everything that this team

287
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: did was so well executed. I thought you mentioned Sean McEwen.

288
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 1: I'm like going through all my notes and stuff like that,

289
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: so I just think it was phenomenal. Going back to

290
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz, he had seven receptions for ninety five yards

291
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. His first two postseason touchdowns. I should mention

292
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that he'd never scored in the postseason before,

293
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: so he's the first tight end in team history with

294
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: multiple receiving touchdowns in a playoff game. And this is

295
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: also a stat that I love that I hope continues

296
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: into Sunday. His ninety five yards were the third most

297
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 1: by a tight end in Cowboys postseason history, and he

298
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: now has two of the four highest receiving yards totals

299
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 1: for a tight end for this franchise. The last time

300
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: it happened was against San Frand last year, where he

301
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: had eighty nine yards. So obviously, the Dak and Dalton

302
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: connection is huge. It's real, it's important. I loved everybody's

303
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 1: involvement on the offense in this one, but something that

304
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: stood out to me is the offensive line continuing to

305
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 1: play musical chairs as a play that I have in

306
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: my mind that I want you guys to see, and

307
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about it when we come back

308
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 1: on our second block of Girls Talk, Boys Talk, presented

309
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 1: by Jigsaw at Jigsaw Dating. We obviously want the Cowboys

310
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,800

356
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 1: expecting about fifteen hundred people and almost eight thousand people

357
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:12,120
Speaker 1: showed up, So for the same energy. Next on Sunday,

358

Speaker 1: I would be there. I would love to chat with

359
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: you guys, put you on TV since everyone loves being

360
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 1: on TV, so we'll get you ready for that. But first,

361
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: we are still talking about the Cowboys big win over

362
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay on Sunday. Now, before the break, we were

363
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 1: teasing a little offensive line work, ladies. This has just

364
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 1: been to me one of the most underrated and I'm

365
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: gonna just word problem for lack of better terms, but

366
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: one of the most underrated problems on this team this

367
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: year is how many times they have shifted around this

368
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 1: offensive line, whether it comes mid game, whether it's been

369
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: in practice and they've lost somebody and had to shuffle

370
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: it up. All of these guys are getting reps at

371
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 1: pretty much every position, and it kind of feels like, really,

372
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 1: nobody except for Zach Martin is truly playing, you know,

373
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 1: where he is normally played. So to start the game,

374
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: this was the rotation for lack of better terms, so

375
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: Jason Peters started at left tackle. Tyler Smith was then

376
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,879
Speaker 1: moved to left guard. Tyler Beiottish was back, he was

377
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: back at center, and then you had Zach Martin at

378
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: right guard, Tyrn Smith at right tackle. You also had

379
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 1: Connor McGovern back there as the full back, so that

380
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: was something important to note. They lost that when they

381
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 1: lost Jason Peters to a hip injury. So what do

382
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 1: they do. They've done what they've had to do for

383
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: the back half of the season and they shipped around.

384
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 1: So then it changes to the rookie Tyler Smith at

385
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: left tackle. You then insert Connor McGovern at left guard.

386
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 1: Tyler Beiottas stated center. That right side's day the same

387
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: was Zach Martin and Tyrn Smith filling out the rest.

388
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: But we did have a chance to talk to Tyler

389
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 1: Beiottish today. They hadn't had a chance to have their

390
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 1: offensive line meeting yet, so we really didn't get into

391
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 1: the nitty gritty of playing San Francisco, but we know

392
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 1: what their defensive front brings and we'll get into that

393
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: in a minute. But something that really stood out to

394
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 1: me about him talking today was just the word seamless.

395
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,719
Speaker 1: And he talked about how you know, this has been

396
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 1: an offensive line. They've used the word resilient to describe

397
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 1: their team theme this year, but seamless is the way

398
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 1: he would describe the offensive line because whenever there's been

399
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: something where one of the players has gotten hurt or

400
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 1: they've had to shift, for the most part, they have

401
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 1: seamlessly transitioned into a different rotation. I think this is

402
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,640
Speaker 1: what like their fifth because if you're watching the game,

403
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 1: to your point, you didn't notice, you no idea, No,

404
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 1: you're right, you no idea. The multiverse of offensive line

405
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 1: switches to the Dallas cowpoints. So it's just to me, like,

406
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: I think we take for granted how important it is

407
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 1: for these guys to be able to do that. I

408
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,679
Speaker 1: mean like, because I mean if you didn't notice, like

409
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: I for sure didn't know it. No, yeah, I'd love

410
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: I don't know what word you used to describe it,

411
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: but you because it doesn't look because the offense has

412
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: performed well, it doesn't look like a weakness of the

413
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 1: team something that's been an issue, like to your point,

414
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 1: but no, I've credit to those guys for being flexible.

415
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 1: And Tyler Smith, dude, I don't even think we can

416
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: call him a rookie anymore because who got three years

417
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 1: of experience to think right, to be able to do

418
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: that in game, not only to do it in game,

419
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,679
Speaker 1: but to go from guard to tackle and to be

420
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 1: as dominant as he was on that side dude, and

421
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: his first playoff match. And granted we talk about it

422
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 1: like these guys are young, like at this time of year,

423
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 1: normally he's not playing, and for his body to be

424
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 1: there just tells you the work that he put in.

425
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: And I was just I'm telling you, I ain't a

426
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,119
Speaker 1: lot of you. I was really impressed with Tyler Smith

427
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 1: and I just the fact that he just moved up

428
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 1: and I was like, all right, cool. And I think

429
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: two last seasons though they've been on their toes, so

430
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: to say, right, be ready to be so versatile, so

431
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: having to do it in this game, they're like, all right,

432
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 1: it's not new anymore that they had that they've had

433
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 1: to do this, so it's become almost muscle memory to

434
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,640
Speaker 1: be prepared to switch at any position. But that's so special.

435
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: Just because they could do it doesn't make it any

436
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: less special. That's the point is that's special. That's hard

437
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: to find. We talked about the muscle memory when this

438
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: conversation first came up weeks ago, how hard that is

439
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: to retrain and repeat, and the fact that these guys

440
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 1: are doing it on the drop of a dime. Now,

441
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: are you kidding me? Seamless that I'm looking at like

442
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 1: my notes from when we talked about it, and he

443
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 1: said it was a seamless transition. There was no drop off,

444
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,679
Speaker 1: and that's the important part. Yeah, he said a lot

445
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 1: of the reason why they're able to do it is

446
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 1: just being able to know. Like I know when you

447
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: spoke to Connor and them last week, he talked about

448
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: taking reps at other positions multiple times throughout the week

449
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 1: just so that they can be prepared for that. So,

450
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: I mean, like when they feel comfortable obviously, it shows, right,

451
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: And it also shows when you look at the numbers. Two.

452
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: I spent some time on next gen stats today because

453
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: we talked about Dak being successful, right, he looked so

454
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: much more comfortable out there, his decision making, his ability

455
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: to roll to his right. You talked about the Dalton

456
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 1: Scholtz touchdown, his decision. He was able to do a

457
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,679
Speaker 1: lot of that stuff because this offensive line afforded him

458
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 1: the time to do that. So I wanted to kind

459
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: of look at the numbers and see, Okay, how long

460
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: was Dak in the pocket? How long did he have

461
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 1: time to make these decisions? Is it longer than normal?

462
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,399
Speaker 1: Where's it at? So? Next Gen provides a lot of

463
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: really important information. This one in particular, is the player's

464
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 1: time to throw. So on eleven of Dak's thirteen attempts,

465
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: he had two point five seconds or less. So he

466
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 1: completed eleven of thirteen passes with less than two and

467
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,880
Speaker 1: a half seconds to throw the ball. But to me,

468
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: what stands out even more is that two point five

469
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 1: one seconds or more. He had fourteen completions on twenty attempts.

470
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: That means he had twenty opportunities with more than two

471
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: and a half seconds to throw in the pocket. I mean,

472
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: to me, insane like that that's your answer. It was

473
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: so opposite from what you saw in Washington where he

474
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 1: was running for his life like they were in his face.

475
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,120
Speaker 1: And I just think, like, when you look at what

476
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: he was able to do, you have to give credit

477
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 1: to that offensive line. Yeah, and to that point, like

478
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: they weren't going up againstnall slouches like Vita Vea, those

479
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,360
Speaker 1: hicks a Keem hicks like those what's a boxing match

480
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 1: in there? Like? Have you cool? It's like at the

481
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, be Odist and McGovern are doing everything

482
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 1: they can fighting through those those blocks and Tyrn Smith

483
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 1: like and he to me also too, looked very comfortable

484
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 1: at about tackle, more comfortable than we've seen in a while.

485
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,360
Speaker 1: And those his paths sets were clean and he seemed prepared.

486
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: I just this. I didn't even know about this. This

487
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 1: is fantastic. I know it's great, and I locked the mic.

488
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: I'm literally looking at it too. And you know his

489
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: average time to throw, he has about almost four seconds

490
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 1: three point five three seconds, and on all of those

491
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,880
Speaker 1: within that time period is when the touchdowns came. All

492
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: four of his passing touchdowns came when he had time

493
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 1: to look and he's okay, that read's not working. Cool,

494
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 1: let me roll out. Oh a Dalton, I see you twice,

495
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And so I just think, like,

496
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: if there's any way to contextualize like how important offensive

497
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 1: line play is, shout out to next Gen Stats from

498
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: being able to chart this, because I mean it's impressive,

499
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: like it really is, and it shows just again the

500
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: comfortability that he had back there the time to decision

501
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 1: make like I don't think he's really I'd have to

502
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 1: go back and look at the numbers. But it hasn't

503
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 1: really felt like he's had opportunities like this where it

504
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 1: was just like, Okay, they're coming, but I can trust

505
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 1: my line. I can trust the tight ends to get

506
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: in here and give me a chance to look at

507
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,199
Speaker 1: who's going. Okay, CD's double covered. Let me look at

508
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: the other side. Oh there's t Y Hilton. Let me

509
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: hit him for another third down. You know, nobody was

510
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 1: just doing what they needed to do, and they all

511
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 1: seemed so focused, like it seemed like the outside noise

512
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: they were in their own world. I don't know how

513
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: it's to put it. I mean, everybody went back to

514
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,920
Speaker 1: the basics this week, said all right, let's do what

515
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 1: we need to do, and specifically for the on line,

516
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: what was so incredible to see was how physical they

517
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,120
Speaker 1: were being. My goodness, they were being. So let's talk

518
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: about physical here. Let's get no. You could hear the popping,

519
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 1: and so that's something too that when you know, I

520
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 1: wasn't there at the game obviously, but when you're hearing

521
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: it on the live stream, the pop pop pop, that's

522
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 1: so loud that the camera mics are picking that up.

523
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 1: But you were hearing it on almost every play, that

524
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 1: pop that you hear when it's a hard hit. You

525
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 1: kept hearing that from the Cowboys offense and it was

526
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: loud enough that I was like, is that my TV? Like,

527
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: what's going on? But that's it was just so physical,

528
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: and I mean, this is exactly exactly why you have

529
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: the talent on this team and we always talk about

530
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 1: you have so many future Hall of Famers in this

531
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: old line and it's showing. I mean, Dak had all

532
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: day in the pocket clearly. Literally yeah, literally all day.

533
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 1: It was so fun too. Yesterday on Cowboys Hour, we

534
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 1: had Terrence Steele as our guest, which was awesome. I

535
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,440
Speaker 1: haven't had a chance to really get to know him

536
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,439
Speaker 1: or really speak to him just because of the lineman

537
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,160
Speaker 1: kind of like to sneak out of the locker. I'm

538
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 1: kind of quick, but it was so refreshing. Number One,

539
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,880
Speaker 1: he let Cowboys Nation know that he is a little

540
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,400
Speaker 1: bit ahead of track whenever it comes to his ACL recovery.

541
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: So that was really positive. He's hoping and he was

542
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 1: pretty confident that he'll be back for training camp. His words,

543
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 1: not mine, So don't come at me if it doesn't happen,

544
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 1: Cowboys Nation, But he was pretty confident. But one of

545
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 1: the things he was talking about was just how very

546
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 1: similar to Dak when Dak was out with his thumb injury,

547
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: how much his analysts analysis rather of the game has

548
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: changed so much, like it was such a negative experience initially.

549
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 1: He talked about like the shock of like, oh here's

550
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: my ACL torn, but it's just changed his ability to

551
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,679
Speaker 1: just kind of watch the offensive line like Brad ass him.

552
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 1: He was like, when you're watching the game, like are

553
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 1: you watching it to watch it or are you watching

554
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: the offensive line? And he's like offensive line. He came

555
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 1: the whole time, the whole time. So, um, I just

556
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: thought it was interesting. But to your point, he talked

557
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,239
Speaker 1: about Tyler Smith and how in credible it is to

558
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 1: see a guy who I mean, like the things that

559
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: this team has asked him to do are incredulous, but

560
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 1: it doesn't feel that way because of how successful he's been.

561
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 1: And you saw it when we were laughing at when

562
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 1: we came back whenever he threw Depth and White to

563
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 1: the ground, I mean picked him up, threw him to

564
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 1: the ground, And I think it's such a it's just

565
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: such an underrated part and I'm trying to keep my

566
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: jacket all but I picked him up through him. I

567
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: don't know that that's something that she would see Tyler

568
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,439
Speaker 1: Smith do at the beginning of the season, right, just

569
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 1: because he needed some development, but to have the confidence,

570
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 1: I mean, he was like way pushed up past the

571
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. It was like he drug him and

572
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 1: it was you know the little uh the dummies that

573
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 1: they practiced on. It was like textbook like. It was

574
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: basically like that from the blind side was like pushing

575
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: him over the stands right there. And he's always yeah,

576
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: he likes to Yeah, he's physical like that, so he

577
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: wants to finish. And in the playoffs he's like, you

578
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: kind I want to impose your will in that way.

579
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 1: I was impressed by him earlier it's just so physical.

580
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: And it's funny too because you talked to him and

581
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: he's such a gentle, nice guy, but then you see

582
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: him playing you're like, jeez, oh my goodness, what's going on.

583
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: I don't want to mess with you. But he's so

584
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 1: sweet when he's talking, and he's just very gentle toned.

585
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 1: I guess is a good way to put it. But

586
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 1: you know, I think for Tyler Smiths, something that always

587
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: gets me is right before training camp or right during

588
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: training camp, when they were back here at the Star

589
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 1: for those couple of open practices. It was highly speculated

590
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 1: at that point that he was not going to be

591
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 1: the starter, and coach McCarthy had come out and said,

592
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: you know where it stands right now, probably not. He

593
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: needs a lot more work, a lot more development, and

594
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 1: then boom, a couple days later, Tarren Smith is out

595
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: for the count with his injury, and then look who

596
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 1: stepped up. And you just never would have thought the

597
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: amount of growth that Tyler Smith has had this season

598
00:29:56,080 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 1: was even possible, much less possible within one one season.

599
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard to forget or it's hard to

600
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: remember this guy's rookie. Like you said, it feels like

601
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: we're talking about veteran at the point. Like I just

602
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 1: sometimes I always go back to my tweet I put

603
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: out about how well this rookie class was performing, and

604
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 1: I forgot to put Tyler Smith on there, not because

605
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 1: I was trying to forget him, but just because you

606
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: forget that he's a rookie. Yeah. They will have their

607
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 1: hands full though, and we'll obviously get into San Francisco

608
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 1: a little bit deeper tomorrow. But just some things to

609
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 1: keep in mind that they're facing the number one defense

610
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 1: in the NFL. You want to talk about physical. That

611
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 1: is the overarching theme that these guys said in the

612
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: locker room today is that they are facing a physical

613
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: defensive front in San Francisco. They have the number one defense,

614
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 1: As I mentioned, they have the My numbers always get

615
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 1: so mixed up. The second ranked rushing defense only allows

616
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 1: seventy seven point to yards per game on the ground.

617
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 1: Their passing defense is a little skeptical. They've had some

618
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 1: injuries there, so it might be an area to exploit.

619
00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: But just some things to keep out for the name

620
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: that stands out to me and probably everybody else in

621
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 1: the league who will likely be the defensive Player of

622
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 1: the Year is Nick Bosa. So just some things to

623
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 1: keep in mind. Again, we'll get into this a little

624
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: bit more tomorrow, but a lot for these guys to

625
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 1: prepare for something else. They talked about a lot was

626
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 1: the shortness of time that they get to prepare versus

627
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: San Francisco's extra two days. I'm not a fan of that.

628
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people aren't a fan of that.

629
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 1: But the positives is that, you know, for this team

630
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 1: they're so used to Yeah, just the word I'm looking for.

631
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to say underdog because we know how

632
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: that went over, but just like the backs against the wall,

633
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: kind of having to do with what they have. So

634
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 1: some things we'll get into tomorrow. A little bit of

635
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 1: tease for their talking about the San Francisco forty nine ers,

636
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 1: but we would be remissed if we did not talk

637
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: about this Dallas Cowboys defense and how well they performed

638
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 1: on Monday, how that translates into Sunday's game against San

639
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 1: fran We are going to spend our last block of

Speaker 1: our guy, Jeans, Go vote for James. Ladies. Let's talk

679
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 1: about this defense because obviously it has been the staple

680
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,879
Speaker 1: and it has been the cornerstone of the Dallas Cowboys roster.

681
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 1: For much of the season. We talked about getting the

682
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,360
Speaker 1: boost back when you get back on Layton Vanderesh, and

683
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,319
Speaker 1: his impact was felt almost immediately. He led the team

684
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:29,439
Speaker 1: in tackles with five solo nine combined tackles, So good

685
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: to have him back. Jonathan Hankins making a return as well.

686
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: He had that sack in the fourth quarter that pretty

687
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 1: much sealed the deal for the game in my opinion.

688
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: It pushed Tom Brady back about nine yards and they

689
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: had to go forward on fourth down and obviously we're unsuccessful.

690
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 1: So good to have those guys back. Jayron Curse obviously

691
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,360
Speaker 1: with a big game as well. He had tom Brady's

692
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 1: which again I did not know this as well. That

693
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 1: was tom Brady's first red zone interception in his time

694
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 1: as a Tampa Bay buccaneer. So I wonder if jay

695
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 1: Ron knows that. Don't how to him tomorrow. But just

696
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 1: a lot of really, really, really good performances. We did

697
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 1: get an injury update with jay Ron. By the way,

698
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 1: he is very adamant about playing on Sunday, so that's

699
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 1: kind of his his thing. He smiles and he says,

700
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: I'm good, I'm good, So he sounds like he will

701
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 1: be good. But what stood out to you guys about

702
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,720
Speaker 1: this defense and how successful they weren't containing tom Brady

703
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: the best way I can put it. And you know,

704
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,760
Speaker 1: when listening to the broadcast, I always love to listen

705
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 1: to the analysis from the broadcasters, and this point, Troy

706
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:35,359
Speaker 1: Aigmant made a very good statement that's stuck in my brain,

707
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 1: and he said, every pass by Tom Brady is challenged

708
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 1: by the Dallas defense, and that just puts every six

709
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,920
Speaker 1: of them. By the way tom Brady six times. It was.

710
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 1: It was so hard for tom Brady to do anything

711
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 1: in this game. He couldn't even breathe without every without

712
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 1: the defense being like, no, you want to do that again.

713
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 1: See what happens. I mean it was they did exactly

714
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 1: what they needed to do. They went out there early,

715
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 1: they were in his face, they were collapsing the pocket.

716
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 1: Michael was doing his little rollout moves to get to

717
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 1: tom Brady. I mean, Lion was hungry. Lion was hungry

718
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: for tom Brady and it showed. I mean, tom Brady

719
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,320
Speaker 1: was so flustered by the end of the first quarter.

720
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,399
Speaker 1: That's well. And they told us to their goal. Their

721
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 1: goal in this game was not to necessarily make Tom

722
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: Brady change his game plan. But it was to disrupt him.

723
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 1: He was to make him uncomfortable. It was to make him.

724
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 1: You know, that's in my opinion, that's why you had

725
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: to throw the ball so much, because you couldn't get

726
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 1: the run game going. So now you're you're forcing passes

727
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,800
Speaker 1: and before you know it, you're up to forty attempts

728
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:35,319
Speaker 1: and then you're a fifty and then you finished with

729
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,839
Speaker 1: sixty six like unreal. But I'm glad you brought up Mica.

730
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 1: Mica was such a game changer in this game. Ten pressures,

731
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,800
Speaker 1: that's the most against Tom Brady in the last five seasons,

732
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 1: eight of which he lined up on the right edge

733
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 1: too on the left edge, but I mean he was

734
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 1: really impressive. Again, this comes from next Gen stats. I

735
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 1: love next Gen. You guys hop on that if you

736
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 1: are not part of next Gen stats. We had ten

737
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 1: total pressures on Tom, one of which to a sack.

738
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 1: The ten pressures, as I mentioned, on Tom Brady were

739
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 1: the most on him over the last five seasons, and

740
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: Tom Brady was two of eight with a sack on

741
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 1: those pressures. So when you talk about being a game changer,

742
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 1: Micah told us I mean, Michael was all business last week.

743
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 1: He was no funny business. He was very locked in.

744
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,360
Speaker 1: They all were. But to see that come to fruition

745
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 1: and how it really affected the Tampa Bay offense, it's

746
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 1: typically pretty good when it comes to passing impact player

747
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 1: for sure. Yeah. I had a moment like right before

748
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 1: the game while I was watching them warm up and

749
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,319
Speaker 1: again like I can't even explain it, but like takes

750
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 1: a warrior to know a warrior like, and I was

751
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 1: looking at them and I was like, oh, now that

752
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,479
Speaker 1: they had had to act the fool like and Mica,

753
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 1: like you to your point, Like we had talked to

754
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: them all during the week, and they had this conviction

755
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 1: about this game. And you could tell just the defense

756
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 1: overall trusted this game plan. They trusted what they had

757
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:57,319
Speaker 1: practiced during the week. They were so active. But when

758
00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 1: you talk like Mica to me, Micael and the guys

759
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,799
Speaker 1: in the box, like that front seven really came to

760
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,759
Speaker 1: play and they made things so uncomfortable. But I know

761
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,839
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to it. I mean, Israel mcquamo, these dbs,

762
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 1: These dbs, yo, when you talk about like footballs, I

763
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 1: look at it as a machine, right, And those DBS

764
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,800
Speaker 1: made it easier for the further front seven as well,

765
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,720
Speaker 1: and they were so sticky in covers, their hands, weren't

766
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: everything just like you mentioned, like just like there were

767
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 1: bad at balls all over the place. This defense was

768
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 1: so active and they played together and I felt like

769
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: they really played for each other this game, um and

770
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: I was impressed by their output, but they just trusted

771
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 1: their game plan and credit to dan Quinn and those

772
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 1: guys for having them ready. Yeah, Israel mcquamo to me,

773
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 1: was a stand out, a difference maker, especially when you

774
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: have Nishan Wright listed as an active as well as

775
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: trayvon Mullin, who I believe was out with an illness.

776
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,239
Speaker 1: He wasn't locker room Teddy a chance to talk to him.

777
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:59,400
Speaker 1: But just shows in my opinion. I don't know if

778
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 1: that's going to be like a standard fixture going forward

779
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 1: for as long as they continue to play, but to me,

780
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 1: if anything, it shows that dan Quinn can take a

781
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: look at an offense. They can take a look at

782
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 1: a guy like Tom Brady and say, Okay, this is

783
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 1: what they like to do, this is what we have,

784
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,919
Speaker 1: let's remix it. Very similar to the offensive line, let's

785
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:20,720
Speaker 1: remix it let's see who matches up well where Israel

786
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,440
Speaker 1: just happened to be the guy this week, and I

787
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 1: thought he did a fantastic job. I think something that

788
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 1: is going to pay dividends going into the San Francisco

789
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 1: game is how well the run defense was. And I

790
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 1: know it's difficult because Tampa Bay's run game is not tremendous,

791
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 1: But to hold a team to fifty two yards on

792
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,319
Speaker 1: twelve attempts to me like that screams we gave up.

793
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: Now we gotta be fair to you about that we

794
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 1: gave up. Yeah. I just think also too, we gotta

795
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 1: be fair and about the run defense in this last

796
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 1: like four or five weeks. It's improved. Yes, it's improved,

797
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 1: and not in the ways that I think people are

798
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 1: looking forward just like it's dominant. No, but it is.

799
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,359
Speaker 1: It is far more than good enough to get guys

800
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,240
Speaker 1: off the field or to give the pass rushers opportunities

801
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:07,719
Speaker 1: and to set the tone because a lot of the time,

802
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: when you had Donovan coming down in the box, when

803
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:13,839
Speaker 1: you had latent, just those hard tackles changed the way

804
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:17,240
Speaker 1: the game feels. And Hankins coming in, they did some stunts,

805
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,880
Speaker 1: they did some stuff like I was just so impressed

806
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 1: with also the DTS. Also DIGGI Zoua has arrived. My friends,

807
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 1: he is playing like one of the best d tackles

808
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 1: in the game right now, and him and Watkins just

809
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 1: I think that DQ was also found a set rotation

810
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 1: of dts right now, depending on like we were surprised.

811
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,359
Speaker 1: I was surprised by Bohannah, where you guys surprised by

812
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:42,320
Speaker 1: the I was initially when I saw the inactive list,

813
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: but after listening to some of the other guys in

814
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:47,840
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys dot Com kind of explain it. It It just

815
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 1: goes back to the same reason why Israel mcquama was

816
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:54,279
Speaker 1: active and wasn't. They just felt like Chauncy goldstin the

817
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,879
Speaker 1: way he's been playing, and you know osa they just

818
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 1: felt like those matchups would bode better than having a

819
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: Neville or who's the other guy we're just talking about.

820
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 1: I think he goes back to how dan quinn had

821
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,239
Speaker 1: talked about, we've been playing with our versatility a little bit.

822
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 1: They'll past few weeks, which you know, that's why everyone's

823
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 1: been so hard on this defense. Oh they don't look

824
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:20,880
Speaker 1: the same, Yeah, because I wasn't your final defense that

825
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:22,960
Speaker 1: you were getting dan Quinn knew what he was doing

826
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 1: and put pulling people around, tossing people in and out.

827
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 1: And then when this an active list came out, I said,

828
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna trust it. I'm gonna trust it

829
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 1: dan Quinn and dan Quinn we trust because it worked out.

830
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,880
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't expect and they'll easy in slot. No,

831
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 1: I don't care when nobody says I don't like And

832
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,240
Speaker 1: I feel bad a little bit because of those surprise

833
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 1: factors though that Tampa Bay wasn't expecting. Is he in

834
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,279
Speaker 1: the slot either? Apparently? You know? I mean? Is He's

835
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: just been such an up and up guy this season

836
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 1: and he doesn't get enough credit. And I'm so glad

837
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:56,399
Speaker 1: now finally this game highlighted is he his best? Well,

838
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 1: I think it's been hard to give him credit because

839
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:00,799
Speaker 1: he's in a room with guy it's like jay Ron

840
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,799
Speaker 1: and Malieeke and Donna. You know, it's like yeah, and

841
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 1: also too, also not the same room. But welcome back,

842
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 1: Layton Vanderesh, Welcome back. Oh my goodness, it didn't even

843
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,000
Speaker 1: look like he missed any games. Tell me how this

844
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,239
Speaker 1: man came off of an injury weeks off of this

845
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 1: game didn't even look like he missed a step. I

846
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,880
Speaker 1: will say that with Layton his injury, a lot of

847
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 1: what he did leading up to it, just from my understanding,

848
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,399
Speaker 1: was less of like you need to sit out because

849
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 1: you're still hurt, and more of we want you to

850
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: be fresh for this type of game. Same. So I

851
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 1: think it. Yeah, so I think it really. I think

852
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 1: when they put Jonathan Hankins on IR, they looked at

853
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,879
Speaker 1: the timeline and they said, like, this is gonna be good.

854
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 1: That way, you'll be fresh when you need it best.

855
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 1: Just monked my chin on the money here. Yeah, And

856
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 1: so I think you kind of saw that coming to

857
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 1: Fruition because we even heard from Layton, you know, two

858
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 1: weeks ago he was ready to go. So it was

859
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 1: good to obviously see him back. Like I said, a

860
00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 1: major impact that was noticed right away, leading the team tackles. Also,

861
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 1: you get your general back, as we've talked about a

862
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 1: lot again, we'll get into more San Fran tomorrow. But

863
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 1: I think the run defense, going back to my original point,

864
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 1: the run defense performing as well as they did, I

865
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 1: think gives this team some confidence, especially when you're facing

866
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,280
Speaker 1: a team that has a Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell

867
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 1: a Deebo Samuel who can act as a hybrid guy

868
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 1: and is physical in that way. So I think that

869
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 1: Monday's game rather gives this team a lot to work for,

870
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: a lot to work with and the most important part,

871
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:36,799
Speaker 1: and again we'll get into San France tomorrow, but the

872
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 1: most important part, guys is like these guys are ready,

873
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 1: you know they I loved that when we were asking

874
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 1: talking to guys in the locker room just about the matchup,

875
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 1: the word revenge was being thrown around by reporters, like

876
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 1: does this feel like a revenge game? Does this do

877
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,200
Speaker 1: you guys feel like you need to get revenge? And

878
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,800
Speaker 1: every single one of them was like, it's not revenge,

879
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 1: Like we want one back. Like even at t Y Hilton,

880
00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:58,960
Speaker 1: I asked him, you know you weren't here last year,

881
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,560
Speaker 1: but can you feel what this game means to this team,

882
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 1: and he said, oh, yeah, like we want them back. Like,

883
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,239
Speaker 1: don't get it twisted, but we can't focus on what

884
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: happened last year. We've got to stay in the present.

885
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:10,160
Speaker 1: We've got to continue doing what we're doing. We've got

886
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,760
Speaker 1: to continue to play the way that they played on Monday.

887
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 1: So yeah, A lot of things to get into with

888
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 1: San fran tomorrow, but a lot of positives to take

889
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,360
Speaker 1: away from Monday's game. Hopefully we continue to play ball.

890
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 1: Any final thoughts, ladies, I just really like how this

891
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: team and the Cowboys of all teams have so much

892
00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 1: historical background and context to things all the time. But

893
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 1: I love that this team, specifically this year, is turning

894
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 1: that tide to say we're rewriting the history. None of

895
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 1: that matters to us because it's in the right now.

896
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,360
Speaker 1: And I just appreciate them so much for that, because

897
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: there's so much outside noise and pressure of oh, the

898
00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 1: first time in thirty years, and those kind of stigmas

899
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:54,399
Speaker 1: and historical backgrounds, but this team doesn't let that bother them,

900
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:56,120
Speaker 1: and I love that for them, especially for a game

901
00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 1: with San Francisco. There's so much history there and we'll

902
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 1: talk about that tomorrow, but yeah, good for them. I

903
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: loved your tweet that you put out, and I love

904
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 1: your clapbacks as well. I was like, like, yes, Jess,

905
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 1: but the tweet that you put out where you talked

906
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 1: about it being you know, sort of poetic justice if

907
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:15,759
Speaker 1: you will, in you know, taking on Tampa Bay, a

908
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:17,800
Speaker 1: team that they started the season with and then getting

909
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 1: the opportunity to slay the dragon that is the forty

910
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: nine ers. I think that that is important insight for

911
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 1: fans to recognize, you know, kind of the coolness again

912
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 1: for lack of better words, that this playoff journey is

913
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: kind of creating for them. But I also love the

914
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 1: juxtaposition of these guys, this team head coach Mike McCarthy

915
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 1: emphasizing that the history of this franchise is not their responsibility,

916
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: so I love their energy. We'll get one final chance

917
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 1: to chat with them tomorrow. I'm sure we'll hear from Dak,

918
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,759
Speaker 1: s CD, Mica, all of the big guys, and we'll

919
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:53,719
Speaker 1: have that insight for you. Do you have anything else? Okay, nah,

920
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:55,759
Speaker 1: I'm written. I'm just as ready as they are, man

921
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,920
