We hate Philly for. 0:00:46.120 --> 0:00:48.239 Mike McCarthy's birthday on Sunday. 0:00:48.600 --> 0:00:50.239 Oh, okay, okay. 0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:55.000 We got another birthday celebration on a game day last month. 0:00:55.040 --> 0:00:57.480 It was Jerry Jones' birthday that did not go well 0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:03.280 when the Detroit yt we were Now we try again 0:01:03.400 --> 0:01:06.600 with the Philadelphia Eagles on Mike McCarthy's sixty first berth. 0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:09.640 When you're three and five percenter is working, that's right 0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:11.039 with us. 0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:16.160 And so here we are ready to tackle these Philadelphia Eagles. 0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:17.680 Bring them on, let's go. 0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:19.440 I like the pun and not. 0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.600 Very many people have been able to tackle Saquon Barkley 0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:24.640 this season. You know, he's on pace for like a 0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:25.840 two thousand yard season. 0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:28.039 Really, you mean just from scrimmage. 0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:32.120 No, he's got nearly a thousand yards rushing and they've 0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:32.880 played eight games. 0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:36.600 That's crazy. They figured it out, man, they figured it out. 0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:38.280 You got stick to the plane. 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:40.080 May Mickey's going to the statue. 0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:42.360 He got stick to the plan as a team came out, 0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:43.199 it's coming off a. 0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:48.680 Nine hundred and twenty five yards in. They're eight games, right, 0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:54.240 six and two one hundred and fifty seven attempts. So 0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:58.400 that means he's averaging a scosh below six a game, 0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:05.920 six a care I'm sorry, six touchdowns too, but he 0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:08.200 doesn't lead the team in rushing touchdowns. 0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:11.919 How many how many yards was that again? Uh? 0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:15.959 Nine hundred and twenty five divided by one fifty seven 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:18.200 and it comes to five point nine a cab. 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:21.040 How about that's six yards of carry? But it was 0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:24.680 but it was nine to twenty five? Yes, okay, So 0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:27.640 he's averaging one hundred and fifteen points six yards a game. 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:33.360 Okay, So if you multiple times, seventeen just multiplied, So 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:37.840 he is on pace for nineteen hundred and sixty five 0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:39.280 yards rushing this season. 0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:43.239 Because if it was a sixteen game season, he could 0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:47.200 just double it, double it, and it's eighteen fifty plus 0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:51.079 one more game. Yeah, and if he happens to get 0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:53.720 a couple of big games, two thousands not out of 0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:54.200 the question. 0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:57.000 Well, once he got to nineteen sixty five, they'll probably 0:02:57.040 --> 0:02:58.560 keep you in to get the final thirty five. 0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:00.880 So let me ask you, guys, is the question I 0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:03.679 just got asked because I didn't have a really good 0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:05.680 answer for it. What do the Cowboys have to do 0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:06.880 to stop say Kwan. 0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:10.160 Berkley, He is injury prone and is here. 0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:12.919 I told him, I told him. 0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:13.720 You. 0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:19.600 Know, I mean I'm saying is he might have been 0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:22.400 doing this earlier in his career, but he always seems 0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:22.960 to get hurt. 0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:26.480 I was more gracious. I said, hijack the bus on 0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:30.320 the way of the thing. I mean, they are who 0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:33.160 they are, right, And I'm not all of a sudden 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:37.360 going to have some magical scheme to shut him down. 0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:40.920 So you just got to hope you can keep him 0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:42.680 to a reasonable about of yards. 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:46.040 The only thing that can help you in games like this, 0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:52.040 when you haven't shown, uh anything all season in regards 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:55.840 to stopping someone, you hope that you could somehow match up. 0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:56.120 Well. 0:03:57.160 --> 0:04:00.680 You hope that the end some individual matchups, right, can 0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:05.480 help you minimize what would otherwise be bigger plays. 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:07.040 Or maybe get a lead and they get out of 0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:10.640 their running game. Well, you're going to start a backup quarterback, right. 0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:13.480 So we probably won't do that with the backup quarterback. 0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:17.760 So just the only hope you have is matchups. Maybe 0:04:17.800 --> 0:04:20.680 one guy might have such a good game or against 0:04:20.760 --> 0:04:23.640 an offensive lineman or yeah, but it just might be 0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:26.640 his day, you know. So it's it's by hook of crook, 0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:29.760 you know. That's about all I can say. 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:37.479 So Baltimore Derrick Henry, they've played nine games and Derek 0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:43.840 So Derrick Henry leads the league in rushing with one 0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:47.240 fifty two but these that's with one more game than 0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:55.159 what Barclay's played. Interesting, so actually about nine he's averaging 0:04:55.200 --> 0:04:57.479 one hundred and sixteen point nine yards of Geary, So 0:04:57.480 --> 0:05:00.800 it's almost exactly the same average per per game. 0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:03.480 Boy, it's nice to play quarterback behind that. 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:07.679 So Henry is on a pace to rush for one thousand, 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:11.920 nine hundred and eighty seven yards in a seventeen game season. 0:05:11.960 --> 0:05:14.359 Barkley is on a pace for one thy, nine hundred 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:18.160 and sixty six. Henry's slightly ahead of the pace of Barkley. 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:25.000 And how about this one. Gibbs Detroit got six hundred 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:28.720 and fifty six yards, so he's eighth, but he's the 0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:32.760 He's got the leading average per carry at six point four. 0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:39.120 Henrys six point three and Barkley's five point nine six ' four. 0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:43.680 Now do us well? 0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:51.480 I got down here to Rico Donald not Cover's. 0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:52.280 Got three hundred and twenty one yards, but he's averaging 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:54.360 four or to five a carry. How about that? 0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:56.120 Who Rico? 0:05:56.320 --> 0:05:56.480 Well? 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:59.440 Nice, it's better than Pollard last year, so give him 0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:02.040 the ball might as well if he only had twelve 0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:04.240 carries for seventy five yards the last game. 0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:05.880 The problem is I had six. 0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:07.000 And a half yards of carry. He was on that 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:08.960 same pace, six and a half yards of carry, but 0:06:09.000 --> 0:06:10.400 they only gave it to him twelve times. 0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:13.120 He's only had seventy one carries. 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:16.320 He was doing good work last game, really good work. 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:20.520 I mean he's tough to bring down once you give 0:06:20.560 --> 0:06:24.320 him some space. I thought that was in regards to 0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:27.120 getting him the ball on the long handoffs left and 0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:29.720 right and yeah, just give him a chance to just 0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:30.559 split the scene. 0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:35.240 And yet when you need a yard, he couldn't get 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:37.000 a yard, and it wasn't because of him. 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:38.280 It was Garrison. 0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:41.080 Yeah what. 0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:46.279 He's going back to the old dad, he don Oh 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:47.800 yeah about Garrison. 0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:48.760 I got it. 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:52.039 If you need three, you'll get you three if you 0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:57.680 need to get you three. But my point before I 0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:02.160 was rudely interrupted, is that it takes more than just 0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:07.560 the running back, and which I think I still contend 0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:11.559 that Mike McCarthy was just as upset about the third 0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:15.960 and one stuffing of Rico, which was the play before 0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:16.960 the fourth and one. 0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:20.240 Jets tablet after the fourth down. 0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:23.880 It was in the break after, so we don't know 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:25.440 that he was looking. 0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:27.320 At like he could have done it. 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:29.040 He could have been looking at the third down play. 0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:31.040 They came back and showed it. 0:07:31.040 --> 0:07:33.360 It was on a replay fourth down. You think it 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:35.600 was the fourth down play that he got. 0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:40.640 His because I think they would have made reference to it. 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:41.640 No, I don't. They don't know. 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:44.600 We're all just speculating what he was looking at too. 0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:47.640 Yeah, so yeah, I'm thinking it's the fourth down. 0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:50.360 That they were both were pretty egregious. 0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:58.600 The fourth was so ugly. The third day when he 0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:00.800 just kept losing and losing, he had. 0:08:00.760 --> 0:08:03.360 Just looked like on the third down on the third 0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:09.840 down play, Grady Jared he it is almost Grady jareded. 0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:13.160 It appears he was either shifting or he was jumping 0:08:13.160 --> 0:08:18.119 the snap and so either he read what was about 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:21.520 to happen or something or but then Tyler Smith blocked 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:24.200 away from him, and so Tyler Guyton has got a 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:26.200 reach block basically on him. 0:08:26.560 --> 0:08:29.920 And then Olsen was saying he never should have left. Tyler. 0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:32.400 I'm sorry, he never should have left, right. 0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:34.880 But so that's where I'm wondering if it was a 0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:38.560 miscommunication where they also have to read what the defense 0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:41.080 is showing them when they're communicating who they're blocking. It 0:08:41.120 --> 0:08:46.079 was so simple, right, and it should have been yeah, crazy, 0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:49.120 and so in just the body language of Tyler Smith 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:51.360 after it was Okay, who am I blocking? 0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:51.720 You know? 0:08:52.960 --> 0:08:53.800 Yeah? How about this? 0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:55.080 The play got blown up? 0:08:55.120 --> 0:09:00.600 An obscure stat Third and one rushing leaders? 0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:02.200 How do we rank there? 0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:07.280 There's eighteen guys that are tied for first because they've 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:10.319 gotten every one of their attempts. 0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:12.280 The most is. 0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:20.240 Jones, Oh, Giants quarterback. 0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:21.840 Jones. 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:23.520 He's seven for seven. 0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:26.839 Jaleen gotta be Jalen. They're not. 0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:29.440 The tush push isn't working without Kelsey there. 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:36.199 Uh not as well, got to be in there, but 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:37.920 he's not. Maybe not part of the eighteen? 0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:39.640 Is that what he says, he's ten of thirteen. 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:46.280 I bet j Daniel Jalen no expect that. I expect better. Actually, 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:46.559 So you. 0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:50.600 Got for seven, Kelsey there, four for four, three for three, 0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:54.880 which is also Zeke. Now Zeke's two for two, lip 0:09:55.000 --> 0:10:00.960 Key's two for two, and Cooper Rush is two for two. 0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:04.000 One of the problems the cow So how many. 0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:07.040 Eighteen guys, but how. 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:08.520 Many opportunities that the Cowboys had? 0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:10.960 Oh, it just shows the run. I got the run, Okay, 0:10:11.280 --> 0:10:12.080 just the running backs. 0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:13.319 Okay, So the running backs. 0:10:13.400 --> 0:10:16.880 Okay, So Elliott's two for two, Lipke's two for two, 0:10:16.920 --> 0:10:19.440 that's four for four, and Rush is two for two. 0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:20.480 That's six for six. 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:21.360 Okay. 0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:24.560 So they on thirty one where they tried to run. 0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:29.400 Rico's two for three. That was the one last week 0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:30.200 eight for nine. 0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:31.200 Wow. 0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:36.360 So so okay, got to get to third and one. 0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:38.800 That's an issue. That's what I was about to say. 0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:42.360 So the Cowboys have played eight games and they've only 0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:46.760 had They've only run the ball on third and one 0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:50.319 nine nine times. Yeah, so once a game basically they're running, 0:10:50.559 --> 0:10:52.720 so you need to get to third and one. The 0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:55.480 problem is first and second down, or they've been. 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:58.160 So good on first and second they don't get one. 0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:00.319 Pick. 0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:02.160 I didn't realize they kept that. 0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:04.720 Stat Yeah, I was just at it. 0:11:04.760 --> 0:11:09.199 They keep status of everything, all right, all right, So 0:11:09.240 --> 0:11:11.079 tell me what we need to know from the Mike 0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:14.520 McCarthy press coofference today. One thing I can tell you 0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:18.000 is that Jonathan Mingo is going to be on the 0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:21.840 practice field today. Yes, and he's wearing number eighty one 0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:24.800 for those of you keep track of that. 0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:27.240 And so they wouldn't bring him in for just a 0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:30.040 practice player at this time, right, He's just he's. 0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:31.080 No, he's on the fifties. 0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:33.600 Fift they gave up a fourth round draft pick. Yeah, 0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:36.040 so there he's on this roster. 0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:37.720 I want to see him on the field. 0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:44.960 Andrew Booth is on the practice squad now, really not signed, okay, 0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:47.520 because they need. 0:11:47.360 --> 0:11:52.440 Players right now. We can't be choosing right now. 0:11:52.480 --> 0:11:58.200 They needed a roster spot for Mingo and so he 0:11:58.360 --> 0:12:01.079 was the bottom guy on the roster and so they 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:03.680 got through and waivers. 0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:04.599 Is that okay with you? 0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:08.880 Because the practice squad, I don't think it's not surprising 0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:10.720 at all. It's a second year player. 0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:12.679 You never know when the light might go. 0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:15.560 Off or come on. 0:12:16.280 --> 0:12:20.600 Well, I meant, yeah, come on, it's been off. 0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:26.120 So what else? 0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:27.440 What else you got from? 0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:33.520 So he was non committal on Dak's injury that got 0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:37.400 reported last night that he has a partial evulsion of 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:42.280 his right hamstring, which means there's a small tear or 0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:47.240 separation of the hamstring tendon from the bone, which sounds 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:53.720 pretty significant even if it's partial. Right, So, I was 0:12:53.800 --> 0:12:57.960 reading up about how they treat this, and one way 0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:03.640 is you can have surgery to reattach the tendon, or 0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:09.760 you can initially rest and it was called a rice 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:18.080 treatment rest ice compression, elevation to cure it. And it 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:22.400 would be several weeks. So it's not a one week injury. 0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:26.480 It may be a four week injury. But really, I 0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:30.200 mean if if if you he doesn't, it's like everybody, 0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:32.880 you got to go on, I r he doesn't. He 0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:36.319 could just be an inactive player and that. 0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:37.920 Way you can save some moves and you. 0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:40.240 Don't like, who are you going to bring on to 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:41.680 take his place? Right? 0:13:43.760 --> 0:13:46.000 When you look at that injury. When I hear about 0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:51.280 that injury is it compare comparable to t O's injury 0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:53.720 when he played the Super Bowl. 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:58.480 I can't remember his his was. I thought his was 0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:01.440 an it was a hamstring. I thought his was an ankle. 0:14:02.480 --> 0:14:04.600 It was an ankle. Here when he tried to play 0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:08.800 in the playoff game against the Giants in seven. 0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:10.240 This is when he went. 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:14.240 He started the I don't know if it's a cryogenic thing, 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:17.560 but that's when they started the treatment. 0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:21.480 He fractured his fibula and tore a ligament in his ankle, 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:24.920 combination that typically demands extensive recovery time. 0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:32.720 He was going in six weeks about yeah, yeah, and so, 0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:37.760 but that that ankle aspect of it, that muscle that 0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:38.560 that I was. 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.680 Wonder that was the same thing from the bone right right. 0:14:42.480 --> 0:14:46.280 So anyway, I kept trying to compare it to another player. 0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:48.760 So Mike basically didn't answer it. 0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:52.560 He he basically said that, you know, we're still doing 0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:56.600 tests and trying to figure out the right uh form 0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:58.040 of treatment going forward. 0:14:58.080 --> 0:14:59.960 The last thing you wanted surgery. 0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:02.040 Oh yeah, yeah, because then he's done for the season. 0:15:02.560 --> 0:15:05.640 Okay, one thing about the surgery, and I know this 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:08.520 is not your favorite guy to site on mixed shots, 0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:12.280 but I did. I did listen to the pro football 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:17.200 doc and he said, there are different types of surgery, 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:19.520 and so we don't know what kind of surgery it 0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:23.360 would be, but there is a surgery that can be 0:15:23.400 --> 0:15:28.440 performed for what he was describing. He in his medical 0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:31.120 experience that he thinks this is what he's dealing. 0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:32.600 Is a real doctor. He is. 0:15:32.720 --> 0:15:35.200 He was a Chargers team. 0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:39.600 Doctor previous, not current, but so now from Afar. 0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:43.480 He's from Afar, so all of that being said, but 0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:47.560 all so he'll look at videos and say this is 0:15:47.600 --> 0:15:48.440 what it looks like that. 0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:50.480 But he didn't do that when he worked with the charge. 0:15:52.720 --> 0:15:56.400 I'm it's charges. 0:15:56.560 --> 0:16:02.160 It's not like charges they were scripting on exactly. I 0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:04.240 know you're living in Atlanta, but can you look at 0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:04.720 this right? 0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:08.000 Well that's what deal with yes, yes. 0:16:08.640 --> 0:16:11.160 But anyway, what he but he did say, what I 0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:13.120 did get out of it is because all the reports 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:15.040 are well, if yeah, surgery, is it done for the year. 0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:19.320 He says that the surgery that he likely would be 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:20.840 taking it would probably put him. 0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:21.840 Out six weeks. 0:16:22.360 --> 0:16:26.520 Okay, so now six weeks takes you to week sixteen, 0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:29.520 and so you're takes you to Christmas and. 0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:31.520 They have a chance to play one or two more. 0:16:31.400 --> 0:16:34.120 Games, and it depends where the team is standing. 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:36.720 It would definitely have to depend on where the team is. Yeah, 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:38.480 we're not just going to throw him out there just 0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:39.200 so and get. 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:42.280 Numbers, especially after you paid him so much money, right. 0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:44.400 And that was saying that that would be the case 0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:47.480 just because you're paying him so much money. Though, Hey, 0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:49.160 we're going to make sure that you play. I don't 0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:51.200 that's I hope that's not the attitude with talking. 0:16:51.320 --> 0:16:53.320 So what do you if we don't have a chance. 0:16:53.360 --> 0:16:57.760 What do you think this revelation did for the idiot 0:16:57.960 --> 0:17:02.160 on FS one that I hate to even say his 0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:04.880 name because now I know he's on f S one, 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:10.399 James Jones when he found out that that former wide 0:17:10.400 --> 0:17:11.600 receiver for Green Bay. 0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:14.280 Oh, I don't know. I don't remember that guy. 0:17:14.480 --> 0:17:18.959 Well, I would like, I don't. People need not to remember. 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:20.439 Okay, I don't know about this. 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:23.240 So when he's when he heard Jerry say that he's 0:17:23.280 --> 0:17:27.120 got a hamstring strain and could be multiple weeks, he said, 0:17:27.960 --> 0:17:32.879 Dak Prescott quit on his team? What quit on his team? 0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:38.040 I've played through hamstring strains. It doesn't take you. Put 0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:40.080 some ice on it and go forward. 0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:42.480 Stop he can't he did not say. 0:17:42.680 --> 0:17:46.040 Yes he did, man, not only did he say it? 0:17:46.280 --> 0:17:48.640 You know, obviously you got to tweet out whatever you say. 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:54.880 Right So now they they they said that he apologized 0:17:55.320 --> 0:18:00.400 and finished his apology with God's speed to Dak. I'm going, 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:01.879 don't be pulling that crap. 0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:07.600 And I'm sure Da sent back middle finger emojis. See not. 0:18:09.400 --> 0:18:12.080 And you know, I've had people tell me this that 0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:16.000 we're in charge of broadcasters and everything. I wouldn't have 0:18:16.080 --> 0:18:19.679 an an now analyst do a game unless they're a 0:18:19.680 --> 0:18:22.960 former player. Well, just because you're a former player doesn't 0:18:23.080 --> 0:18:26.480 know mean you know everything well and not only that 0:18:26.560 --> 0:18:27.960 and nothingst you. 0:18:28.000 --> 0:18:29.080 No, No, it's not. 0:18:30.080 --> 0:18:33.679 If you think of what Everson does and what Nate does, 0:18:34.160 --> 0:18:38.520 they find out what's going on before they form an opinion. 0:18:38.960 --> 0:18:39.960 This guy goes. 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:40.679 Off half cocked. 0:18:41.240 --> 0:18:45.320 Uh and uh, that's why to me, it's dangerous to 0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:49.280 put all these guys on just because they play. And 0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:55.159 at some point, I mean, it's just it's irresponsible to 0:18:55.280 --> 0:18:55.600 do that. 0:18:57.400 --> 0:19:04.560 No, do do the you know, and then when you 0:19:04.600 --> 0:19:10.399 do that. 0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:17.520 There's no repercussion either, right. Well, and so I told 0:19:17.520 --> 0:19:19.320 the guys in narratio. I remember when I was working 0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:22.119 at Paper and Columbia, Missouri, h a guy that I 0:19:22.200 --> 0:19:27.040 knew was running a Mexican restaurant and he got accused 0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:33.320 of sexual assault front page, big headlines. Right a week 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:38.520 later they found out it was bogus metro section about 0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:43.520 eight point type. The case has been dropped. But once 0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:47.240 you do that right, everybody sees it right away and 0:19:47.359 --> 0:19:52.359 reacts and the retraction no big deal. Right, So you 0:19:52.760 --> 0:19:56.600 gotta I don't know, here's what you have with just 0:19:56.680 --> 0:19:58.199 be responsible the. 0:19:59.000 --> 0:20:02.439 Risk you have with former players, and you see it 0:20:02.480 --> 0:20:04.520 with the podcasts and things of that nature. That's why 0:20:04.560 --> 0:20:06.280 I try and be as accurate as possible. That's why 0:20:06.320 --> 0:20:08.840 I like Bill fact checks a lot of the stuff 0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:10.439 that we talk about so that I won't just be 0:20:10.440 --> 0:20:12.600 out here rambling and you. 0:20:12.560 --> 0:20:15.960 Know it's totally was not how it was. Sometimes he'll 0:20:15.960 --> 0:20:16.399 correct me. 0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:24.119 And so you have players, some have this vendetta, you know, 0:20:24.200 --> 0:20:27.719 and they want to air that out, and there are 0:20:27.800 --> 0:20:30.200 times when they might spout some things, or it may 0:20:30.200 --> 0:20:35.560 be coming from a place of envy, it might be 0:20:35.640 --> 0:20:39.760 coming from a place of trying to do it. And 0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:44.160 also some get back. Uh, let's let's case in point. 0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:47.360 You've got a lot of players out there, and it's 0:20:47.400 --> 0:20:48.200 always been the thing. 0:20:48.200 --> 0:20:50.240 I think it mostly started with Randy Moss. 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:54.720 The Cowboys should have drafted me, right, And because they 0:20:54.720 --> 0:20:57.239 did not draft me when I played every time I 0:20:57.280 --> 0:21:00.159 played them, then I made sure and made them pay 0:21:00.200 --> 0:21:03.720 for That's started with Randy. And you've got a lot 0:21:03.760 --> 0:21:06.440 of players out there who were not nearly as good 0:21:06.480 --> 0:21:10.199 as Randy Moss, who have that same beef with the 0:21:10.240 --> 0:21:13.920 Cowboys or another team or a coach. 0:21:14.200 --> 0:21:15.639 That might be still in the game. 0:21:16.400 --> 0:21:20.639 So then when you give your remarks, this former player 0:21:21.080 --> 0:21:25.359 is usually going to be something unusually stingy, right, something 0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:28.760 unusually sharp that really shouldn't be out there because you 0:21:28.880 --> 0:21:32.760 still have this vendetta that's in your head against a 0:21:32.800 --> 0:21:38.240 particular player, against a particular coach organization. And so I 0:21:38.240 --> 0:21:41.560 think Dak Prescott and the Cowboys themselves have been a 0:21:41.680 --> 0:21:45.200 victim of that. Now with these former players on TV, 0:21:45.600 --> 0:21:48.040 all of them are like the Cowboys are up at 0:21:48.080 --> 0:21:53.800 the you know, and they've got this nose up attitude 0:21:54.800 --> 0:21:59.479 about everything that we do, and it's their job as 0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:02.160 form a player is to shoot that down. And not 0:22:02.200 --> 0:22:05.960 just former players of course we know another particular player, 0:22:06.160 --> 0:22:08.600 another particular guy, but it wasn't a player who came 0:22:08.640 --> 0:22:11.520 in here and joined us one day, you know. 0:22:12.320 --> 0:22:13.680 To make a career out of it. 0:22:13.800 --> 0:22:16.040 Well, I mean, and he is. And so. 0:22:17.680 --> 0:22:21.480 That gives them, in their eyes validity, you know, but 0:22:21.680 --> 0:22:25.240 not necessarily here and it may not necessarily be accurate. 0:22:25.720 --> 0:22:29.440 But that sentiment goes up to the producer as well, 0:22:30.119 --> 0:22:32.879 because they know that that's a money maker. They know 0:22:33.000 --> 0:22:38.080 that all these players that have these vendettas against the Cowboys, 0:22:38.640 --> 0:22:41.359 that's good print and it's it's good air. 0:22:41.800 --> 0:22:46.359 Go go look at former Redskins and their former Redskins. Okay, 0:22:46.440 --> 0:22:50.320 they're not commanders, and they had vendettas all the time, 0:22:50.680 --> 0:22:52.800 the guys that got a microphone. 0:22:52.800 --> 0:22:57.359 And not to mention some Philadelphia ego former players as well, Right, 0:22:57.640 --> 0:23:00.760 all of them want to outdo the cowboys. All of 0:23:00.800 --> 0:23:04.840 them want to show the Cowboys you know, gotcha, we're 0:23:04.880 --> 0:23:07.639 getting back at you right now. And that that's true stuff, 0:23:07.800 --> 0:23:10.960 that's true stuff. For us to be the topic of 0:23:11.600 --> 0:23:18.600 so many sketches or edits, it's ridiculous to where, like 0:23:19.040 --> 0:23:21.040 I think they just like you said, they just fired 0:23:21.040 --> 0:23:24.280 Dennis Allen, the coach for the Saints.

Oh yeah, I had all you guys out there. 0:27:06.720 --> 0:27:08.080 You wanted him to run more. 0:27:08.320 --> 0:27:10.760 Well, he ran more, and I don't think it was 0:27:10.760 --> 0:27:11.399 about choice. 0:27:11.600 --> 0:27:15.200 No, that was a scramble. But the other ones were runs. 0:27:15.280 --> 0:27:15.399 Right. 0:27:15.440 --> 0:27:20.240 He had three carries for thirty yards and the last 0:27:20.280 --> 0:27:24.919 one was basically he was running out of the pocket 0:27:24.960 --> 0:27:25.719 he got sacked. 0:27:25.800 --> 0:27:28.120 I can't recall forgive me, is that the same leg 0:27:28.160 --> 0:27:30.120 as the as the broken ankle? 0:27:30.960 --> 0:27:32.200 Oh you would ask that. 0:27:34.400 --> 0:27:36.960 Because the boat ankle was left. 0:27:37.040 --> 0:27:40.119 I was thinking it was left was left? Wasn't it 0:27:40.119 --> 0:27:43.679 because he got he got yanked down by that? What 0:27:43.720 --> 0:27:44.600 do you call that? 0:27:44.640 --> 0:27:45.040 Any way? 0:27:45.720 --> 0:27:49.320 We had a fifty to fifty chance of getting it right? Yeah, 0:27:50.080 --> 0:27:51.240 it was just right. 0:27:51.760 --> 0:27:53.880 That's why it was this way. As I thought about 0:27:53.920 --> 0:27:56.200 it, it was this way this way. He brought it down 0:27:56.840 --> 0:27:58.479 this way as he was trying to go there. 0:27:58.480 --> 0:28:02.440 That was like ther what ham string is is this 0:28:02.640 --> 0:28:03.000 is right? 0:28:03.480 --> 0:28:07.879 See that that stuff that you know you has confidences 0:28:08.000 --> 0:28:10.600 it does, it does, no doubt about it. It's no 0:28:10.640 --> 0:28:18.400 doubt about it. Oh yeah, we woke. 0:28:18.320 --> 0:28:20.720 Got it in the same I'm not getting those How 0:28:20.720 --> 0:28:22.639 did I? Why do I don't get that? 0:28:22.840 --> 0:28:24.080 Might be because they're looking for you. 0:28:24.080 --> 0:28:25.960 You're not Apple in society. 0:28:26.600 --> 0:28:28.680 Now, they're looking for you. You might be a suspect. 0:28:28.760 --> 0:28:29.720 They don't want you to know. 0:28:30.920 --> 0:28:34.720 All right, So and I'm just confirming I had to 0:28:34.720 --> 0:28:37.600 wait for Wi fi to kick in here and it 0:28:37.880 --> 0:28:39.000 was his. 0:28:39.160 --> 0:28:43.200 Right ankle, okay, and so his right ham string now 0:28:43.920 --> 0:28:47.360 m hm yes, yeah, that that's definitely related. 0:28:48.600 --> 0:28:52.479 So what you're saying is one, okay, your walls weaken everything. 0:28:52.600 --> 0:28:57.040 Tell you, man, that stuff happened with the guy right yeah, 0:28:57.080 --> 0:28:59.280 he laughs at me, But easy listening, san Diego. 0:28:59.360 --> 0:29:03.200 Got I didn't realize you got your medical degree. 0:29:03.920 --> 0:29:07.320 Said, Usually when you have something that happened off in there, 0:29:07.440 --> 0:29:09.800 then your you know, the rest of your leg has 0:29:09.800 --> 0:29:10.760 to compensate for. 0:29:11.360 --> 0:29:14.360 That injury, which is not never going to fully be healed. 0:29:14.720 --> 0:29:16.360 It's never going to fully be healed. 0:29:16.520 --> 0:29:20.720 That muscle that surrounded that ankle will never be the same. 0:29:20.840 --> 0:29:22.720 It will never be as strong as it should have 0:29:22.800 --> 0:29:26.840 been otherwise. So I'm thinking that as as I like 0:29:26.920 --> 0:29:31.040 the word it precipitated this hamstring injury. 0:29:31.560 --> 0:29:32.160 I like it. 0:29:33.760 --> 0:29:34.760 Okay, what else you got? 0:29:34.920 --> 0:29:39.640 So it was a pretty extensive injury report yesterday. Between 0:29:39.760 --> 0:29:40.200 yes it was. 0:29:40.280 --> 0:29:45.840 There were nine starters, nine Cowboys starters, seven of them 0:29:45.880 --> 0:29:50.080 with Pro Bowl experience, that were either limited or missing 0:29:50.240 --> 0:29:51.480 missing practice accident. 0:29:51.760 --> 0:29:55.840 Right. He gave an update on CD, who practiced on 0:29:55.920 --> 0:29:57.040 a limited basis. 0:29:57.680 --> 0:29:58.000 Uh. 0:29:58.040 --> 0:30:00.840 He said he had a good day and they expected 0:30:00.880 --> 0:30:05.320 him to be out there. He didn't give any specifics, 0:30:05.360 --> 0:30:08.480 but he said he practiced, So I guess if the 0:30:08.520 --> 0:30:10.920 wide receivers practicing, he's got to be able to catch 0:30:10.960 --> 0:30:13.720 the ball. Uh. He said. Micah had a good day 0:30:14.200 --> 0:30:18.440 and he said that he should be out there again 0:30:18.520 --> 0:30:21.160 the day, so he was limited, but he did take 0:30:21.240 --> 0:30:26.880 part in some of the team reps. Uh and uh 0:30:27.600 --> 0:30:29.520 he said he talked to him this morning and it 0:30:29.600 --> 0:30:33.920 sounded like he didn't have any repercussions from uh the activity, 0:30:34.040 --> 0:30:39.680 So it sounds like good for those guys. Let's see 0:30:39.680 --> 0:30:44.200 the other limited guy was did you call it? He 0:30:44.240 --> 0:30:45.000 didn't call it up? 0:30:45.040 --> 0:30:45.320 Did you. 0:30:46.720 --> 0:30:50.120 I forgot to print it out. Hang on I had 0:30:50.120 --> 0:30:58.320 the limited mm hm hmmm, I guess I didn't write 0:30:58.320 --> 0:31:02.200 it on this page. There were four guys that were limited, 0:31:02.360 --> 0:31:05.800 and all of them sounded like they would be able 0:31:05.840 --> 0:31:10.040 to play. They didn't put rest next to Zach Martin 0:31:10.680 --> 0:31:14.440 or Eric Kendricks, but I think that they felt like 0:31:14.640 --> 0:31:17.320 that could today would be the most important. 0:31:17.400 --> 0:31:19.640 I apologize for not listening to you, So I'm going 0:31:19.720 --> 0:31:22.760 to run down the whole stuff. All the limited guys 0:31:22.880 --> 0:31:27.760 were digs with a calf guiton with a neck and 0:31:27.920 --> 0:31:36.080 shoulder uh CD shoulder, micah ankle one, two, three, four, right, 0:31:36.280 --> 0:31:39.600 which one did you miss? 0:31:39.760 --> 0:31:47.760 And Bland d d n P rehab today still maybe, 0:31:48.320 --> 0:31:50.600 I don't think it's a maybe if he's not practicing. 0:31:50.720 --> 0:31:57.280 Kendricks did not participate with a shoulder, and Zach Martin 0:31:57.480 --> 0:32:08.720 shoulder d n P. Of course, Jan Thomas concussion and. 0:32:05.880 --> 0:32:08.560 The vigil that foot just keeps gitting in the way. 0:32:08.680 --> 0:32:10.920 And then the other one is Brandon Cooks, who is 0:32:10.960 --> 0:32:13.360 on I R. So he's not on the injury. 0:32:13.000 --> 0:32:16.560 Report right and he's not ready to practice, not this week, 0:32:16.640 --> 0:32:18.040 so maybe next week. 0:32:19.080 --> 0:32:22.160 Dang, that's a lot, right, that's crazy. 0:32:22.000 --> 0:32:22.680 They could. 0:32:23.200 --> 0:32:27.320 And that's that goes to show you on the infection thing, 0:32:27.400 --> 0:32:30.320 you know, we don't. Yeah, it's it's rare that you 0:32:30.720 --> 0:32:35.120 see a player out with an infection, a knee infection 0:32:35.520 --> 0:32:37.720 coming off of surgery like that, So you don't know 0:32:37.960 --> 0:32:38.959 what to anticipate. 0:32:39.000 --> 0:32:41.680 How long it wasn't a surgery, it was a shot. 0:32:41.800 --> 0:32:48.360 Yeah, that's right, that's right, injection and a So you 0:32:48.360 --> 0:32:54.240 don't know how long someone's out with that. And it's 0:32:54.280 --> 0:32:56.040 going to be a fifth week now at least. 0:32:56.360 --> 0:32:58.120 I hate to bring it up because he always gets 0:32:58.120 --> 0:33:00.560 out of me. But when I had my infection, I 0:33:00.760 --> 0:33:01.880 was out for two weeks. 0:33:03.200 --> 0:33:04.320 I'm not getting on you today. 0:33:06.400 --> 0:33:14.920 That's serious stuff, especially when you're taking an ivy to antibiotics. 0:33:15.520 --> 0:33:17.240 It's uh, yeah, it's serious. 0:33:17.480 --> 0:33:20.520 I'm lucky. Is this just for him alone? From Bandon? 0:33:20.640 --> 0:33:26.280 And now the quarterback? So both wide receivers are banged up. 0:33:26.360 --> 0:33:29.680 The top two guys right and Philadelphia's are too, and 0:33:29.760 --> 0:33:32.680 they are Brown was on the injury report. 0:33:32.720 --> 0:33:36.200 He was limited, and then DeVante Smith who was out 0:33:36.600 --> 0:33:38.600 with a hamstring yesterday. 0:33:41.040 --> 0:33:46.680 It's a violent game and it seems like I don't 0:33:46.720 --> 0:33:49.000 know if it's more violent or just you haven't played 0:33:49.080 --> 0:33:52.320 enough football that a lot of this stuff crops up with. 0:33:52.680 --> 0:33:56.040 I'd love to have somebody come along and do some 0:33:56.160 --> 0:33:59.280 type of a study on then versus now. I just 0:33:59.320 --> 0:34:04.080 don't remember so many injuries from players when we played, 0:34:04.720 --> 0:34:07.360 and we weren't as dedicated in the offseason as these 0:34:07.400 --> 0:34:11.200 guys are. They stay in shape year around, and is 0:34:11.239 --> 0:34:15.839 that too much? Do they wear their bodies down? And 0:34:15.960 --> 0:34:18.960 yes they talk about fewer practices, but that should be 0:34:20.200 --> 0:34:23.680 that should be a plus because you're. 0:34:23.560 --> 0:34:26.480 Not succepted to accept that ball to get hurt in 0:34:26.600 --> 0:34:29.080 practice as much, and that's why it is the way 0:34:29.120 --> 0:34:32.440 it is. But then now you're playing football that you're 0:34:32.480 --> 0:34:33.160 not used to. 0:34:34.640 --> 0:34:36.759 Action the other part of it. 0:34:36.800 --> 0:34:39.480 And I don't know if that would have made a 0:34:39.520 --> 0:34:41.799 difference back then. Maybe it would have, I don't know. 0:34:43.239 --> 0:34:47.040 But when it came to covering one on one playing 0:34:47.040 --> 0:34:51.200 a wide receiver, after you play so many practice, have 0:34:51.280 --> 0:34:54.920 so many practices, that stuff just becomes second. 0:34:54.719 --> 0:34:56.000 Nature, you know. 0:34:56.200 --> 0:34:58.560 I mean, you know you could get out of bed 0:34:58.560 --> 0:35:00.960 and do it, you know, But I don't know something 0:35:00.960 --> 0:35:05.440 about how things have run at this time. Do the 0:35:05.520 --> 0:35:09.160 lack of practices help and that's what that's kind of 0:35:09.160 --> 0:35:10.160 what we are right now. 0:35:11.280 --> 0:35:15.000 And then there's different rules as far as using injured 0:35:15.040 --> 0:35:17.840 reserve now to where you got more guys that go 0:35:17.960 --> 0:35:20.120 on injured reserve because they can come back in four 0:35:20.160 --> 0:35:22.840 weeks and back in the day you're on injured reserve, 0:35:22.840 --> 0:35:23.720 you're out for the season. 0:35:24.560 --> 0:35:26.879 And then also the. 0:35:27.000 --> 0:35:29.960 Money involved in it, where you're not because you have 0:35:30.000 --> 0:35:32.359 such a financial investment in a player, you don't want 0:35:32.360 --> 0:35:34.200 to risk of further injury, so you hold them out 0:35:34.239 --> 0:35:36.799 for another week just to make sure they're right. 0:35:36.880 --> 0:35:39.800 It may not necessarily be. They may have the same 0:35:40.040 --> 0:35:42.319 knick knack injuries that we had that we had to 0:35:42.360 --> 0:35:42.799 play through. 0:35:42.840 --> 0:35:45.839 We had to play through. The rosters are larger now. 0:35:46.120 --> 0:35:48.600 You also have the practice squad that you can play with, 0:35:48.760 --> 0:35:52.040 you know, as far as expanding the roster. 0:35:52.280 --> 0:35:54.160 But you don't want to do something like that with 0:35:54.239 --> 0:35:59.319 a star player and you know, tinker around with that 0:35:59.440 --> 0:36:01.840 kind of stuff because you want him on the field, 0:36:02.880 --> 0:36:07.200 you know. So you could probably say that with marginal 0:36:07.200 --> 0:36:09.320 players right as opposed to sit stars. 0:36:09.320 --> 0:36:13.719 But also because of the gambling, it's more publicized now 0:36:13.840 --> 0:36:19.040 all the injuries back then, it wasn't publicized because of 0:36:19.080 --> 0:36:20.480 course there was no gambling going on. 0:36:20.640 --> 0:36:22.160 No, absolutely not. 0:36:29.040 --> 0:36:33.160 Well, but think about it. Back then, they had instituted 0:36:33.200 --> 0:36:36.520 this type of injured reserve because they could put a 0:36:36.520 --> 0:36:39.800 guy on for four weeks and then they could come off. 0:36:40.360 --> 0:36:43.480 What happened was it got abused that they were putting 0:36:43.760 --> 0:36:48.120 guys on there with false injuries just to stash them 0:36:48.160 --> 0:36:49.160 to keep their rights. 0:36:50.280 --> 0:36:50.920 But if you're. 0:36:50.800 --> 0:36:54.680 Talking about having players available, you're not going to be 0:36:54.760 --> 0:36:57.480 messing around with that. If you need players, I mean 0:36:57.760 --> 0:37:00.000 your core players available. 0:37:00.520 --> 0:37:03.040 Oh yeah, I don't mean to do it for I 0:37:03.080 --> 0:37:04.520 mean guys that are they're. 0:37:04.360 --> 0:37:06.160 Gonna cover with this. The other part of is you 0:37:06.200 --> 0:37:08.640 didn't have it. One of the reasons you only had 0:37:08.640 --> 0:37:11.440 a forty man roster. You didn't have enough money to 0:37:12.239 --> 0:37:14.440 have other players, excess players. 0:37:14.719 --> 0:37:17.880 You know that you could just Let's be real. 0:37:17.760 --> 0:37:21.120 Think how much money is spent on players just flying 0:37:21.160 --> 0:37:23.120 in for workouts across the country. 0:37:23.280 --> 0:37:25.759 You know, Hey, don't don't fuss about that. 0:37:25.760 --> 0:37:29.560 Because Jimmy Jones, Jimmy Johnson bunt in in nineteen eighty nine, 0:37:29.719 --> 0:37:34.440 Jimmy Johnson and the Cowboys airline budget had to be big. 0:37:34.360 --> 0:37:37.120 Worked out because brought them in on Monday, worked them 0:37:37.120 --> 0:37:39.920 out on Tuesday. 0:37:40.160 --> 0:37:41.320 A shuttle or something. 0:37:41.200 --> 0:37:43.800 Started on Sunday and cut them on Monday. 0:37:44.600 --> 0:37:47.440 So many guys man that came in and just left 0:37:47.760 --> 0:37:50.840 in some state I've never seen that it was. 0:37:51.040 --> 0:37:51.480 It was a. 0:37:51.440 --> 0:37:54.040 Cute term, but it was accurate. The revolving door. 0:37:54.200 --> 0:37:56.160 Uh right, So how many of the players of the 0:37:56.239 --> 0:37:59.400 nineteen eighty nine roster weekend week out? But you go 0:37:59.440 --> 0:38:01.439 in the locker room, how many of those players would 0:38:01.480 --> 0:38:06.320 you know their name? Percentage said, there's fifty guys. 0:38:06.280 --> 0:38:08.720 All my teammates names, but do not know their names? 0:38:09.680 --> 0:38:12.240 How would you not know their names? And everything started 0:38:12.280 --> 0:38:13.440 to change gradually. 0:38:13.760 --> 0:38:16.480 Well, and think the way the way that the locker 0:38:16.600 --> 0:38:20.439 room was arranged at Valley Ranch initially in those quadrants. Yeah, 0:38:20.680 --> 0:38:23.000 so you didn't hang around with Quadrant three. 0:38:23.040 --> 0:38:25.799 When you were in quadrant you got a rotating run 0:38:26.080 --> 0:38:31.759 and so wed. Yeah, like like in this in this 0:38:31.880 --> 0:38:34.359 locker room or an NFL locker room right now, where 0:38:34.400 --> 0:38:36.200 you've got all these practice squad players, you got to 0:38:36.200 --> 0:38:39.280 get injured. There's seventy five players walking around here. Okay, 0:38:40.200 --> 0:38:43.480 are there players on teams that don't know the names 0:38:43.480 --> 0:38:45.160 of all the players on their teammates. 0:38:45.320 --> 0:38:46.719 I would imagine it is right now. 0:38:46.760 --> 0:38:48.880 I bet a couple of guys that are on the 0:38:48.920 --> 0:38:52.239 practice squad, because they're the majority of them are in 0:38:52.280 --> 0:38:55.640 that back locker room, I bet they don't. 0:38:55.440 --> 0:39:01.719 Know Ricky Henderson. Ricky Henderson the baseball player. He he 0:39:01.760 --> 0:39:05.279 didn't know any of his teammates. He was with the 0:39:05.320 --> 0:39:08.480 New York Mets at Al Lighter took him around with 0:39:08.480 --> 0:39:12.200 the TV camera and because it was the teammates were 0:39:12.239 --> 0:39:14.560 talking amongst himselfs Ricky don't know my name, I mean, 0:39:15.200 --> 0:39:19.080 and he Al Lighter and Takesy with it. He got 0:39:19.080 --> 0:39:22.279 it on the TV cameras and took put his arm 0:39:22.320 --> 0:39:24.760 around Ricky and brought him up to teammates and say, okay, 0:39:24.760 --> 0:39:27.919 what's his name? Oh, no, mess with Ricky, No mess 0:39:27.960 --> 0:39:28.399 with Ricky. 0:39:30.280 --> 0:39:31.799 Ricky was at that time, he was at the end 0:39:31.840 --> 0:39:35.640 of his career, right, yeah, right, yeah, right, of course. 0:39:37.360 --> 0:39:40.520 Everybody knows Ricky though, Yeah, that's what matters everybody. 0:39:41.880 --> 0:39:43.759 And then he at the end of his career, he 0:39:43.840 --> 0:39:47.239 was with Seattle and John olrud was he was with 0:39:47.280 --> 0:39:48.959 the Mets. He's a teammate with him of the Mets. 0:39:48.960 --> 0:39:51.000 And then he was in Seattle, and old Rud wore 0:39:51.320 --> 0:39:54.080 a batting helmet when he played in the field. Okay, 0:39:54.160 --> 0:40:00.600 because if I guess concussion whatever, and so Ricky sees him. 0:40:01.000 --> 0:40:03.200 I played with a guy in New York who also 0:40:03.239 --> 0:40:06.719 wore a batty and it was the same. It was 0:40:06.760 --> 0:40:08.440 all right, recognized. 0:40:11.680 --> 0:40:13.520 He must not have left impressive. 0:40:16.000 --> 0:40:20.279 This reminds me of since you said Ricky. Missouri had 0:40:20.280 --> 0:40:22.040 a basketball player, Ricky Frasier. 0:40:22.200 --> 0:40:25.400 I remember I called his Gamesvanovich and Curtis Berry and 0:40:25.480 --> 0:40:29.840 John Sunvol Ricky. No, No, he was at Missouri. I 0:40:29.880 --> 0:40:33.480 was Missouri when I was in school at Ou Missouri, 0:40:33.560 --> 0:40:34.839 and uh we beat y'all. 0:40:34.960 --> 0:40:37.960 He was a first round draft choice of the Chicago Bulls. 0:40:38.160 --> 0:40:41.359 But they were in a in the tournament and they 0:40:41.400 --> 0:40:45.040 were going to play Notre Dame. Notre Dame's big guy 0:40:45.680 --> 0:40:49.600 at that time was Kelly Tripuka. He was All America, 0:40:50.160 --> 0:40:53.880 one of So they're in the locker room before the 0:40:53.960 --> 0:41:00.480 game and Norman Stewart says, Ricky, we got Tripuka, and 0:41:00.640 --> 0:41:10.960 Ricky goes who he Oh, just give him a number, 0:41:14.120 --> 0:41:16.520 and it was he was so good. The guy had 0:41:16.920 --> 0:41:21.239 the greatest shooting touch ever, right, but yeah, who he 0:41:22.120 --> 0:41:22.600 he was good? 0:41:22.800 --> 0:41:23.840 Yeah, but they went. 0:41:25.360 --> 0:41:28.560 They I think they got beat by day. 0:41:28.600 --> 0:41:31.680 I got an old cassette tape of mine. They were 0:41:31.800 --> 0:41:34.680 ranked fourth in the country. They came into Norman, Oklahoma 0:41:34.719 --> 0:41:37.399 to play Billy Tubbs Oklahoma Sooners, and they got their 0:41:37.640 --> 0:41:40.120 butts beat by a nine. 0:41:40.000 --> 0:41:43.560 Yeah, that's right, I still got it. 0:41:44.080 --> 0:41:47.160 As we prepare for an Ou Missouri football match up 0:41:47.239 --> 0:41:50.160 on Saturday, trash talking has begun. 0:41:51.000 --> 0:41:54.960 Continue shot not until I find out who the starting 0:41:55.040 --> 0:41:57.759 quarterback is. HM. 0:41:59.040 --> 0:42:02.080 The Medal of Honor is our country's highest military award 0:42:02.120 --> 0:42:05.719 for valor in combat.

Match up well, you know there needs to 0:44:53.000 --> 0:44:56.879 be just one individual that can make things happen, one 0:44:56.920 --> 0:44:59.959 individual that can just screw up your entire game plan, 0:45:00.160 --> 0:45:02.000 which is kind of what happened with the Cowboys against 0:45:02.040 --> 0:45:05.040 the Falcons last week. If you can get everyone else 0:45:05.080 --> 0:45:09.360 to maintain and I would say this the game plan. 0:45:09.600 --> 0:45:12.600 When you have a team like this, the game plan 0:45:12.760 --> 0:45:17.200 is extremely important. This is when the coaches get paid 0:45:17.760 --> 0:45:19.560 to really make the magic happen. 0:45:19.760 --> 0:45:21.160 This is your moment right here. 0:45:21.520 --> 0:45:23.920 Make sure that you put your players in the best position, 0:45:24.480 --> 0:45:27.359 and then you hope for that one player to come 0:45:27.360 --> 0:45:29.520 out and have one of his best games. That's the 0:45:29.560 --> 0:45:32.160 only chance we have to win this game. It's going 0:45:32.239 --> 0:45:36.640 to have to happen in the running game. In regards 0:45:36.640 --> 0:45:39.480 to our defense, we have to have good run defense, 0:45:39.800 --> 0:45:41.320 and I think if we do that, we have a 0:45:41.440 --> 0:45:42.520 chance to win the game. 0:45:42.719 --> 0:45:45.040 Actually, Mike, when he was asked about it, he said, 0:45:45.280 --> 0:45:49.560 we definitely got to play strong inside, meaning stopping the 0:45:49.640 --> 0:45:53.520 run of course, And did we talk about this on Monday? 0:45:54.840 --> 0:45:59.799 The first play that Atlanta ran with Bijon Robinson, it 0:45:59.840 --> 0:46:04.400 was the exact same thing that will diagram for you 0:46:05.120 --> 0:46:09.719 illustrating for the TV show that cutback run. He was 0:46:09.760 --> 0:46:15.120 showing how he's he's he's fast, but he's quick enough 0:46:15.239 --> 0:46:19.279 Bijon to cut to the right and see the backside 0:46:19.320 --> 0:46:21.279 cut and you've got to be aware of it. 0:46:22.239 --> 0:46:24.919 Cowboys were well prepared to stop that too. He only 0:46:24.920 --> 0:46:27.920 got nine yards on that plane rush play. 0:46:30.800 --> 0:46:34.480 Talking about if we could just keep them inconsistent in 0:46:34.560 --> 0:46:37.200 their running game, And I thought we did a decent 0:46:37.280 --> 0:46:39.759 job against the Falcons running rushing game alone. 0:46:40.000 --> 0:46:42.240 If we can be if we can keep. 0:46:42.040 --> 0:46:47.239 Our opposition, uh inconsistent in their running game, we have 0:46:47.320 --> 0:46:50.040 a chance. You have to give yourself a chance. And 0:46:50.080 --> 0:46:52.800 you can't have Derrick Henry running all over the place 0:46:53.040 --> 0:46:53.640 or you. 0:46:53.600 --> 0:46:58.200 Know, as an NFL net provide show jumping somebody from 0:46:58.239 --> 0:46:59.400 the backwards. 0:46:59.440 --> 0:47:03.640 Come on, man, But if you can just minimize the 0:47:03.800 --> 0:47:06.640 damage that their running game will do against our rush, 0:47:06.719 --> 0:47:08.320 our running rushing defense. 0:47:09.480 --> 0:47:12.400 So you think, so you think if you limit Barkley 0:47:12.520 --> 0:47:14.759 to his average of one hundred and sixteen year. 0:47:15.520 --> 0:47:16.960 How they say is average? Okay? 0:47:17.040 --> 0:47:18.560 I did not say, Well, that would be a lot 0:47:18.600 --> 0:47:20.360 better than what they did against Henry, right. 0:47:20.360 --> 0:47:21.440 No doubt, no doubt. 0:47:21.440 --> 0:47:23.080 But be shod didn't get one hundred. 0:47:23.239 --> 0:47:25.160 He did not know he got eighty six and they 0:47:25.239 --> 0:47:27.800 got another fifty nine through the year. Was the problem 0:47:27.840 --> 0:47:28.640 the fifty nine? 0:47:30.200 --> 0:47:32.839 I mean, when you think about it, the Cowboys still 0:47:32.840 --> 0:47:34.680 had the chance to win that game. I'm sorry. They 0:47:34.719 --> 0:47:36.279 had a chance to win that game. And they can 0:47:36.360 --> 0:47:40.000 do the same thing against Philly because Philly's offense is 0:47:40.040 --> 0:47:44.080 not as explosive as what we've seen in the past. 0:47:44.120 --> 0:47:46.839 Okay, which this is off topic. We don't have time 0:47:46.880 --> 0:47:48.200 to get into it, but I'm gonna throw it out 0:47:48.239 --> 0:47:50.080 there anyway. I was just thinking about this. 0:47:50.600 --> 0:47:50.880 Okay. 0:47:50.880 --> 0:47:54.160 The Cowboys are facing Barkley this week, and he was 0:47:54.280 --> 0:47:57.400 like the second pick in the dramt Okay, and he's 0:47:57.719 --> 0:48:03.040 the Eagles. You would say he's been a pretty fine addition. 0:48:02.760 --> 0:48:03.760 To this Eagles still. 0:48:03.960 --> 0:48:09.200 Okay, last week, b John Robinson, Okay, that offense was 0:48:09.239 --> 0:48:11.719 centered around b John Robinson last week, and he was 0:48:12.080 --> 0:48:15.759 the eighth pick in the draft. Okay, the previous week 0:48:15.840 --> 0:48:19.000 San Francisco, Okay, they don't let their guys hurt. But 0:48:19.080 --> 0:48:21.600 he's coming back maybe this week. Christian McCaffrey was the 0:48:21.600 --> 0:48:25.600 eighth pick in the draft. Okay, the previous week it 0:48:25.719 --> 0:48:28.160 was Jamior Gibbs and the Lions, and he was like 0:48:28.200 --> 0:48:31.280 the thirteenth pick in the draft. So what's this talk about. 0:48:31.360 --> 0:48:33.560 You can't draft a running back in the top half 0:48:33.600 --> 0:48:39.640 of the first draft. Crazy got four straight team four 0:48:39.719 --> 0:48:40.920 straight teams. 0:48:40.520 --> 0:48:45.040 Here that are playing the You just have to draft 0:48:45.080 --> 0:48:46.319 the right running back. 0:48:46.440 --> 0:48:49.040 I'll tell you something. And Bill knows what I'm talking about. 0:48:49.120 --> 0:48:51.839 After watching Ou and the. 0:48:51.760 --> 0:48:56.160 Big Eight back in the day, Wiley Simms. 0:48:56.320 --> 0:49:01.000 Running backs was the most amazing thing for me when 0:49:01.000 --> 0:49:04.560 I was young, just you know the way guys, you 0:49:04.600 --> 0:49:06.799 know my dad was running back, the way he was saying, 0:49:06.960 --> 0:49:09.000 to give him a leg and take it away, you know, 0:49:09.239 --> 0:49:12.200 just the normal things that running backs do. I just 0:49:12.239 --> 0:49:16.520 always thought that was so fun watching football when the 0:49:16.600 --> 0:49:19.319 running game was more prominent than the passing game. 0:49:19.400 --> 0:49:22.720 But I mentioned Billy Simms, and there is a poster 0:49:22.840 --> 0:49:25.920 child for why you don't take a running back with 0:49:25.960 --> 0:49:27.960 the first or second pick in the draft. Because he 0:49:28.040 --> 0:49:30.719 got hurt and he wasn't able to do anything. And 0:49:30.719 --> 0:49:35.480 that's the that's the knock against taking the running but 0:49:36.320 --> 0:49:38.719 his NFL career, because he got hurt early on, he 0:49:38.760 --> 0:49:40.920 would have been he would have been a Hall of 0:49:40.920 --> 0:49:42.959 Fame running back, but he got hurt. 0:49:43.239 --> 0:49:45.719 Well, he ran over us in Dallas. Uh, that I 0:49:45.719 --> 0:49:46.120 would call. 0:49:46.280 --> 0:49:48.640 I would call an eighty something yard touchdown pass he 0:49:48.680 --> 0:49:49.920 called over d D Lewis. 0:49:50.560 --> 0:49:51.600 So come on, I've been. 0:49:51.719 --> 0:49:53.880 I was there, ran over us in Colombia. 0:49:54.600 --> 0:49:55.440 That was in college. 0:49:56.160 --> 0:49:56.920 Boy, that was it. 0:49:56.960 --> 0:49:59.399 That may have been his greatest game ever. He had 0:49:59.440 --> 0:50:01.960 back to back games against Missouri and Nebraska. 0:50:02.600 --> 0:50:05.560 And I wrote my whole story after that game. I think, 0:50:05.640 --> 0:50:09.120 if I remember correctly, which one it was all about him. 0:50:09.280 --> 0:50:12.879 But Billy did play, Okay, to your point, Billy did 0:50:12.920 --> 0:50:17.440 play from nineteen eighty to eighty four and had five 0:50:17.920 --> 0:50:21.520 one hundred and six yards in his career. And which okay, 0:50:21.560 --> 0:50:25.920 which okay? First round draft pick, he got him for 0:50:25.960 --> 0:50:29.040 four years, five years if you pick up the fifth 0:50:29.120 --> 0:50:31.560 year option, and so you got your five years out 0:50:31.560 --> 0:50:33.839 of him. You know, you just got to understand when 0:50:33.840 --> 0:50:36.719 you take a running back, that second contract may not 0:50:37.239 --> 0:50:37.880 come to fruition. 0:50:38.280 --> 0:50:41.240 You say anything about Tony, so that's right, yeah, yeah, 0:50:41.360 --> 0:50:42.799 all right. That kills all of that. 0:50:46.400 --> 0:50:49.040 And there's a whole bunch of others, Yes it is. 0:50:49.760 --> 0:50:50.160 One of them. 0:50:50.200 --> 0:50:53.759 Was at SMU the other day, Eric Dickerson, Tony Express, 0:50:54.040 --> 0:50:55.160 the Express was there. 0:50:55.840 --> 0:50:58.000 La la la la la la, he kills me. 0:50:58.160 --> 0:51:01.839 Yeah, but how about SMU's playing in now Watch Watch Out. 0:51:01.920 --> 0:51:03.520 They're gonna make their playoffs. 0:51:03.520 --> 0:51:03.879 That's right. 0:51:04.160 --> 0:51:06.680 All the guys are from the Dallas area. That's right. 0:51:06.880 --> 0:51:09.160 Love it, I love right all right. 0:51:09.480 --> 0:51:12.719 That does it for mix shots, and some of us 0:51:12.760 --> 0:51:15.640 will shout at you again tomorrow at noon. 0:51:15.960 --> 0:51:17.640 Go Cowboys till Monday. 0:51:18.360 --> 0:51:21.360 This has been a production of dallascowboys dot Com and 0:51:21.480 --> 0:51:24.440 the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
