00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: edition of The Break. We were laughing that SWBC Mortgage

00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 1: Studios at the Star presenter by mill of like the

11
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: only beer of the Dallas Cowboys, and we're talking about

12
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: a crazy, crazy win by the Cowboys, fifty four to

13
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 1: nineteen beat down of the Indianapolis Colts. That the score,

14
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if it necessarily reflects what the game

15
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 1: was throughout, but say it as you as you want to.

16
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: At the end of the day, Cowboys score a ton

17
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: of points, have a crazy fourth quarter and end up

18
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,119
Speaker 1: with the win fifty four nineteen. At home, let's talk

19
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: about the story of the game. What is the story

20
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,320
Speaker 1: who of the game? For you guys? With so much

21
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 1: that happened there throughout that game. Nick will start with you.

22
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: I thought they had an OBJ like performance. They were dynamic,

23
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: they were electric, they were exciting, they were talented. They

24
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: did the things that you're looking for when you try

25
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: to describe a player that you may want to add

26
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: to your team. They showed that, especially on defense. You're

27
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: not supposed to have an explosive defense like that, and

28
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: they did. I mean I kind of disagree a little bit.

29
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: I think the score was exactly the way the game was.

30
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,559
Speaker 1: And I always go back to one game two thousand

31
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: and seven Patriots Cowboys. They were two undefeated teams. The

32
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: Patriots went undefeated. The whole year Cowboys were undefeated. Was

33
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: a clash. They were within it for a while, but

34
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,279
Speaker 1: as you just continue to play, as the game sixty

35
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: minutes goes out, you realize, yeah, they're a lot better

36
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: than you and all that. And I think that Cowboys

37
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: did that. Yeah. I think, um, they were able to

38
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: recover from how the game started. I mean, they started

39
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: pretty inconsistently, not fast. They got better as it when

40
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,799
Speaker 1: they were making certain mistakes, even when Dak threw the

41
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: interception and you're like, oh, here we go again. But

42
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: they were able to pick it up, skeety lamb. He like, wow,

43
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: he had one of his best games yesterday. He was

44
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: playing and I know people and Brian, you saw a

45
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 1: tweet that I thought was pretty funny. It's just like, um,

46
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: I forgot what it says, specifically, like he doesn't want

47
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: Odella here right, playing like he doesn't want here, which

48
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: was pretty funny because just the way that he was

49
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: playing in something. It was just another level, another energy

50
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: that he had yesterday. It was like with some grunt

51
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: in him, like like he had some power to him.

52
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: So that was really really exciting to see an offense

53
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: and seeing him play that way as well as the

54
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 1: you know, the running game was working too. So it's

55
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: just when you start seeing every single piece working out,

56
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: it just gets you really really excited to what this

57
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 1: team has ahead and what they can be when they

58
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: get to the playoffs. Yeah, dan Quinn figured out yesterday

59
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: that his four man rush wasn't getting home, so all

60
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: of a sudden, the adjustment that he makes is now

61
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna bring linebacker pressure. You're gonna bring you're gonna

62
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: bring safety pressure, and then that's how you're gonna get

63
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: the sacks. And that's how you're gonna get. I think

64
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: that they're I think the Cowboys defensive reputation was preceding

65
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: them in this football game because I look at the

66
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: way that that Matt Ryan. I mean, it was like

67
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: he was not really interested in sitting in there and

68
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: delivering a football. Several wide throws, several throws that were,

69
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: you know, really not on target for him, and you know,

70
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: it just became a real struggle for them to have

71
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: to pick up the front, the blitz and things like that.

72
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: So you know, when you watch enough tape of the

73
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 1: Cowboys defense, you see how they attack you and the

74
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: last thing you want to be doing is holding the football.

75
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: I think it was another really good game of playing

76
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: run defense. I felt like that Hankins has been worth

77
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: his weight in gold. And that's a lot of weight

78
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: and a lot of gold right there, because this guy

79
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 1: doesn't get moved off the spot. You've got guys that

80
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 1: are you know, You've got guys like Wilson and vander

81
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: esh and these guys they tackled, they had bar back.

82
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 1: I think he played pretty well for you. So yeah,

83
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: your defense just kind of you know, the offenses. Ambar

84
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: was saying, you know, she always asks this. Get off

85
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: to a good start, Get off a good start. I mean,

86
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 1: you couldn't have got off to a worst start to

87
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: start the second half. Then they get the ball at

88
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: the fifty yard line and go nowhere, you know, and

89
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: you're like, damn it, what's going on here? You know,

90
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 1: find a way to kind of get the rhythm going.

91
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: But you know, you were able to kind of, you know,

92
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: the defense kind of kept you in this game. And

93
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: the more that and we've talked about this, the more

94
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: you score, the harder it was going to be for

95
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: the Colts. And then once you've got that rhythm, like

96
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: and Bar was talking about with your receivers, the running game,

97
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: the quarterback, the offensive wine, that's when the avalanche came.

98
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: And you know, we were expecting that that the Colts

99
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: couldn't score, and you know, I mean I think it

100
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: was the like the third or fourth highest toll they've

101
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 1: had for the for the season, and that was only

102
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 1: nineteen points. So that kind of shows you where you're

103
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: at going into that one and how you were able

104
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: to finish it off. Yeah. The interesting thing is I

105
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: think what's getting lost in this for some fans. First

106
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: of all, if you can't find Joy in a fifty

107
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 1: four to nineteen drubbing of the opponent. Then what are

108
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: you doing as a fan, Like maybe you need to

109
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 1: just reevaluate whether you really want to be a fan

110
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: of the sport or not. But one thing I think

111
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 1: that's getting lost in that conversation is this is a

112
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: team that's scrappy, and they have been scrappy in some games.

113
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: They took Philadelphia to the wire, Philadelphia ends up winning

114
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 1: with a touchdown they're late in order to take a

115
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 1: one point lead and to win that game. This is

116
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 1: not a team that and we talked about it last week,

117
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: and I told people last week that I talked to

118
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 1: it's like, this is not the kind a team where

119
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: you usually when you look at him and you're like, oh,

120
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: this is a foregone conclusion. The Cowboys are going to

121
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 1: just destroy them. You just don't know. And they've been

122
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: playing better football since their head coach was fired, ironically,

123
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: and that's what you saw there in the first half.

124
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: I think in the second half, which you saw is

125
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: what good teams do. Nick, you hit the nail on

126
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,359
Speaker 1: the head. Good teams they figure it out at some

127
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,919
Speaker 1: point and then they just start kind of it starts

128
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: piling on because they're just better. They're just better. Yeah,

129
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: they were. They did a really I just felt like

130
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: when you look it over, I thought it was a

131
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: really nice game plan too. I know there was some

132
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: stumbling a little bit with the offense, but the fact

133
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: that I'm encouraged by what I'm seeing with them moving

134
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: Seedee Lamb around and getting him in motion and getting

135
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 1: him opportunity to separate and things like that. And I

136
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: you know, you're going to give Michael Gallop some credit

137
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: on the first touchdown that he had his ability, he

138
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: was you know, he was going to be The play

139
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: was designed a bunch formation, and all of a sudden

140
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: that it wasn't open what he'd do, he stopped and

141
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: then he saw Dak break and he took off running,

142
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: you know, and it's like, listen, I had just stand here.

143
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 1: I gotta keep going, and he did and he got

144
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 1: the ball and then he got in, you know. And

145
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: that's what this team is doing. It's finding ways to

146
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: manufacture stops, it's finding ways to score touchdowns when they

147
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: get opportunities, and I think that's the right thing. I

148
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: think what you're also seeing is this is a pretty

149
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: deep team. This is a really deep team, and you

150
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: know they're battle tested in a lot of ways just

151
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 1: because of some of the adversity that they've had to

152
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 1: deal with. So you do see some young guys stepping

153
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: up and making plays. You talk about the rookie class

154
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: and things like that. You know, they've done a really,

155
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: really nice job of having to incorporate a lot of

156
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: kids and they're making plays. Look at Dak Prescott's a

157
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: day he had as he was twenty of thirty, sixty

158
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: seven percent completion rate, one hundred and seventy yards, three touchdowns,

159
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: one I and T one hundred point seven quarterback rating. Nick,

160
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: what do you think of his play particularly? And I

161
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: want to focus in on all these three first three

162
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: quarters because it was kind of some up and down

163
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: moments where the offense was good and the offense was

164
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: not so good. What were your thoughts on play? I thought,

165
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: I thought he played pretty well. I mean, I'm trying

166
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: to go back. I mean, it's funny because the fourth

167
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: quarter just kind of clouds everything. As far as you know,

168
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: it's hard to go back and remember some of the game,

169
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: some of the first couple of drives of the game.

170
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: But but I you know, I thought it was. It

171
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: was pretty good. They they they stumbled, uh somewhat. Um,

172
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: but you know, he he was, he was solid. I

173
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: think at the end of the night, his his you know,

174
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: his ratings, one hundred and three touchdowns. Um. I'm trying

175
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: to go back and even remember the interception. I don't

176
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: even remember. I know, I know he threw one, but

177
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: I thought it I thought they bumped the receiver a bit,

178
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: but I mean it was it would have been it

179
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,599
Speaker 1: would have been a They probably would have thought it

180
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 1: was a Tiki tech face masks, a face mask off

181
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: the line that that's what they missed. They missed the

182
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: face mask there. But I don't think the bump was

183
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 1: was a penalty so much. Um. But you know, I

184
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: gotta give the Cowboys credit. I know that's not what

185
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: you're asking, but you got to give him credit for

186
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 1: the three penalties. I mean three penalties, especially when one

187
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: of them right off the bat with Joseph and then

188
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: right off the bat and the second quarter, I mean

189
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: the second in the second half with Ferguson, and that

190
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: was the only two other than a PI from Bland.

191
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I thought, for the most part, you know,

192
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: we knew this was going to be a crew that

193
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: throws a lot of flags. But I thought the Cowboys

194
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 1: stayed pretty disciplined. Best for Dak, I thought I thought

195
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: he was solid. He did what he needed to do,

196
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 1: didn't throw an interception up for the half that was

197
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: big over them, even threw to the middle. I tried

198
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 1: look at hold those shoults. But now I thought he

199
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,839
Speaker 1: I thought he played pretty well. He didn't run at all.

200
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: It didn't feel like he needed to. Really. Yeah, the

201
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: running back feed and Speed did a great job for

202
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: you with her twenty nine carries and there one hundred

203
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: and sixty eight yards and three touchdowns. You know, I

204
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: just keeps a good back. Yeah, that's feed and Speed

205
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,319
Speaker 1: is a really bad it's a really good back. And

206
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,959
Speaker 1: that's what I really That's that's what this team is

207
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: going to be all about and went forward. It's going

208
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: to be can those two guys find ways to combine

209
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: and have you know, whether who gets how many carries,

210
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if they were close. One gets seventeen,

211
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 1: one gets fifteen, you get one hundred and sixty eight yards.

212
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 1: You answer with the three touchdowns right there, You're going

213
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: to make your quarterbacks life really, really easy. Playing these games.

214
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: You know something that I don't think we've talked about

215
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: a whole lot, And going back to the topic of

216
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: when we were talking about Mike McCarthy and what he's

217
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 1: done with this team and even Kellen Moore what he's

218
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 1: done with the offense, is their ability to adjust in

219
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 1: the middle of the game. They're like, for the longest time,

220
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 1: for a couple of years, they were incapable on Cape.

221
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 1: I don't even know what's the right word, but they were.

222
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 1: They could not damn bad at it, exactly damn bad

223
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: at it. They could not adjust to save their lives.

224
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 1: Like it was terrible and the other team would end

225
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: up coming back and kicking them. But now we see

226
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: a team, whether they end up with a win or loss, regardless,

227
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: they have a very good ability to adjust and going

228
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 1: back and I know we're talking about that, but real quick,

229
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,679
Speaker 1: going back to even the defense and what you were

230
00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,079
Speaker 1: talking about, Brian, the defense struggled at the beginning. The

231
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: den Quinn figure out a way to kind of adjust

232
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: and just make it work and make and stop the

233
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 1: opposing team and just completely dominate them. So doesn't aspect

234
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 1: an aspect that I don't think we've kind of pointed

235
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 1: out and talked about a whole lot and going back

236
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: to Dyke, he that applies with him as well, his

237
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 1: ability to kind of, I guess, recover from his mistakes

238
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: and just kind of adjust throughout the game and try

239
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: to play a more clean game with the offense. I

240
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: think it's very notable, and honestly, I know that there's

241
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: a lot of d criticism out there, but it does

242
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,959
Speaker 1: deserve a lot of praise in that aspect. Let's talk

243
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 1: about the running game. Running game obviously was really really

244
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 1: good yesterday. Had thirty four rushes for two hundred and

245
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: twenty yards a six point five average, four touchdowns. Pollard

246
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: had twelve carriage for ninety one yard, Zeke Head seventeen

247
00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: carries for seventy seven yards for twenty nine Millie David.

248
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: But but yeah, just all the way around, the running

249
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: game was really really impressive yesterday. Uh then after the

250
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:12,239
Speaker 1: game there was a little question as to why exactly

251
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: Pollard got the start. I'll start the question really with

252
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: doesn't even matter now, it does, does not matter what

253
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: the deal is. It just that's it's just an annoying,

254
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 1: you know a little bit when you get you get

255
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 1: four different answers um and the owner said. The owner

256
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 1: says that there's there's something wrong, you know with I

257
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 1: mean with Zeke, and a disciplinary issue with his cell

258
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: phone wasn't major. He wasn't sent home from the bowl game.

259
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: I mean, like he he gets to play, so gets

260
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: the slag. It's still a credit card there, get the

261
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 1: Belt Bowl. Come on now. I don't know why you

262
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: gotta sprinkle that news out there, but like that, but

263
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: um no, I think I think he played in seventeen carries.

264
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,959
Speaker 1: I mean he played whatever. It was like, oh sorry,

265
00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: sit down for a second, and now you come in

266
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,559
Speaker 1: and he ran and pissed off and I thought he

267
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: ran really well. Zeke did. Um whatever it is, you know,

268
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,599
Speaker 1: but it's just weird of like, you know, Zeke's like,

269
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: it's not a big deal. You know, this is what

270
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,680
Speaker 1: I wanted to do. And Dak was like, yeah, we

271
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 1: want to mix it up a little bit and was

272
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 1: like whatever it is, just just just give him the ball.

273
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: Who cares? At this point, it doesn't matter, Brian said

274
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: it best. It doesn't matter. These guys are are interchangeable.

275
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: Zeke is scoring. I mean these poler's scoring up the

276
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: middle and the three yard run. He's showing he can

277
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 1: be a short yardage guy at times. Not all the time,

278
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: but at times. And then, you know, I think Zeke's

279
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 1: doing a nice time. Zeke hasn't really been kind of

280
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 1: at your outside guy, but he did bust one there.

281
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 1: You know, I don't remember when it was in the game,

282
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: but I thought he had a nice little run to

283
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 1: the outside. He can start a little high step. It

284
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 1: was down there by the goal line. You know, you

285
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 1: kind of looked like old Zeke for a little bit.

286
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 1: So whatever it is, it's working, you know, if a

287
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 1: cell phone's going off into meetings, whatever it is. I

288
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: don't think it's flashbacks of that run you were talking

289
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 1: about down the sidelines. Because somebody sitting next to me

290
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: the press box was like, it's fantasy football. And the

291
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: first thing I thought of was Derek with his fantasy

292
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 1: football team and stuff like that. In this he was watching.

293
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: He was like, ze go, go go, and I'm like, bro,

294
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: really he goes? He was like, he goes fantasy football.

295
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,199
Speaker 1: He's got a score right there. You remind me a

296
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: guy's door. It was a glorious fantasy for me last night. Defense.

297
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: But you know, Nick, you're not talking about it during

298
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 1: the game as you were watching Zeke, and really it's

299
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: been over the last couple of weeks. He has a

300
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: little bit of burst that I haven't seen from him

301
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 1: in a while. There was one run last night where

302
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: you could clearly see the whole open. He's exploded through it.

303
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 1: And that was one of the things that we hadn't

304
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: been seeing from Zeke in a while that you could

305
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 1: see the difference from Paula was in there because he

306
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 1: does he has that explosiveness and you hadn't really seen

307
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: that from Zeke consistently. But I think he's starting to

308
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: get a little bit more of that. He feels he

309
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: seems a little bit shiftier, He seems like he has

310
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 1: a little bit more healthy. First, maybe the health is

311
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: the big issue there, right, And Nick, I think you

312
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: mentioned that last night. When has he been healthy like this?

313
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 1: It's all around. I do think that. And it doesn't

314
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: matter which one is in there. They were using them

315
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: both and using them both well. And pride has got

316
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: a factor into it as well. I mean, Zeke has

317
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: been the man and now all of a sudden, Tony

318
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: Pollard is coming in there, and and whether or not,

319
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: I mean they are. I think they're they have a

320
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: great relationship. I don't think it's a problem. But like

321
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: if any alpha male in the world sees, you know,

322
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: another guy coming in and making in some plays and

323
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 1: doing that, it's gonna he's if he's got anything to him,

324
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: and we know Zeke does you know, it's kind of

325
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: I think they they've carried each other in a healthy way.

326
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: Tip of the cap two to some couple of positions.

327
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Biadas played his best game at center, and then

328
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: also the wide receivers. All the crack toss stuff that

329
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: they ran. You got helmet stickers for Gallup for Lamb,

330
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: for Brown, all those guys every time yeah, blocking every

331
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: time the ball got to the edge, it was it

332
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: was a crack a seal by the receivers. Great job

333
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 1: by them. And now you're getting big bodies in space

334
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. So they did some that with

335
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 1: the toss sweep stuff was really effective. But I felt

336
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: like that watching the All twenty two that Tyler Bodish

337
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 1: by far had one of his best games and you

338
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 1: start talking about some of the pickups inside the pass

339
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: protection and then what he was able to do in

340
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: the running game one on one with Buckner several times

341
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: in that in that game, you know that they were

342
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: able to have some positive yards. Yeah, you could tell

343
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 1: that they're they're doing some things with that offensive line,

344
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: shuffling and around little bits. The end about when Tyring

345
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: comes back, you know that they're getting Tyler Smith's some

346
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: work at left guard. But man, that touchdown run by

347
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: Pollard down the left sideline where Tyler Smith, Yeah, I

348
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: mean he looked like Sunshine from remember the Titans. He

349
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 1: was just running and blocking and running and blocking, and

350
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: he was down there with him at the same time.

351
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I thought that was I mean, that was impressive.

352
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: I mean, they have a good problem to have here

353
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: with all with with their offensive line and Tyring coming

354
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: back and what they're gonna do with McGovern and Tyler

355
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 1: Smith and Peters is getting some work. I mean, it's

356
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: it's it's a pretty good it's a good problem to have. Yeah,

357
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna take our first break when we come back.

358
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk a little bit more about the wide

359
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 1: receivers particularly and what they're doing and how much that

360
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 1: should or shouldn't factor into what's going on with OBJ.

361
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 1: We'll also talk about the offensive line and maybe the

362
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 1: return of Tyrant Smith and what they're doing on the

363
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,199
Speaker 1: offensive line. We'll do that when we come right back.

364
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys dot com Radio. Todd thought it would be

365
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: secure to jog in the cheetah Savannah. Todd believed the

366
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: big cat repellent he bought online was reliable. And now

367
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: Todd is trying to be faster than this cheetah that

368
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 1: can run eighty miles per hour. But the good news

369
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 1: is Todd has AT and T five G. It is fast, reliable,

370
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,239
Speaker 1: and secure, and he learned the best thing to do

371
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 1: is stop running and toss her the backpack with the

Speaker 1: of The Break live from the SWBC Mortgage Studios at

412
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: the Star, presented by this segment presented by blockchain dot Com.

413
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the wide receiver. Ceedee lab had five

414
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: catches on seven targets for seventy one yards and a touchdown.

415
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup had four catches on seven targets for twenty

416
00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,199
Speaker 1: three yards and two touchdowns. Question for you guys the

417
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: emergence of Ceedee Lamb and Michael Gallup, which I think

418
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 1: by over the last few weeks, we started to see

419
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,640
Speaker 1: those guys step up in a bigger way and make

420
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: more impressive plays for this team. But all that being said,

421
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,399
Speaker 1: do you think that should make the Cowboys more or

422
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: less feel like they really need to land Odelle Beckham Junior.

423
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: Do you think it matters at all? Does that matter

424
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 1: at all? Honest? The answer to the question would be,

425
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 1: I think that they don't need Odell as much as

426
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 1: everyone thinks they do. I really don't think that they

427
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: need him so much, especially for what it might take.

428
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: But again, I'm not saying not to sign him, but

429
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: need him for for what I mean, Like, they can

430
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 1: win these games without, you know, without it, but like

431
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: as Brian mentions, a lot of the time, it's gonna

432
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 1: get tough when an ear in the playoffs and it's

433
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 1: gonna get fourth and three and all that, and who

434
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 1: do you want out there? I mean, they can win

435
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,880
Speaker 1: these games and they can be dynamic without him. But

436
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: but I've seen great football teams in the last twenty years.

437
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 1: I've seen them. I'll also see them go home in

438
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 1: the divisional round. At some point, you got to get

439
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: somebody that can take you over the top, and maybe

440
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,640
Speaker 1: he could be that guy. Great movie, by the way,

441
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:16,360
Speaker 1: over the Top too. It's a really good bad movie. Yeah, yeah,

442
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,439
Speaker 1: good bad movies over top. Now That's what I was

443
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 1: thinking too, is it's do you need him? Okay? Now,

444
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 1: with the way that they play, I mean not to

445
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 1: say exactly what you just said, but that is exactly

446
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 1: how it is. They've been playing each week after week

447
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: they keep playing better. I think CDs complimenting Michael Gallup

448
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: and they're complimenting each other the longer they go with

449
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 1: practicing and being around Dak Prescott. And that's something that

450
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: they've mentioned themselves, like CD and I'm talked about it

451
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 1: that just spending more time with Dak after him being

452
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 1: back from the injury, it just keeps getting better and

453
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 1: better naturally. So seeing that in the way that and

454
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,919
Speaker 1: like I said something about him and the way that

455
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: he played yesterday, he just had some some some you

456
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: know some in him, Like he was ready to play

457
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 1: and fight and give it his all. So his energy

458
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: was at another level that I don't think we've seen.

459
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 1: I can't remember a game where he's played with that

460
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 1: kind of not anger, but tenacity. It was Oklahoma CD.

461
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 1: It was freaking great. So you would love to keep

462
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: seeing that. But again, are we all in for this season?

463
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 1: I think that I don't care how they're playing. If

464
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 1: you had a guy like Odell Beckham Junior, you're gonna

465
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: need like there's gonna be a moment that he's gonna

466
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: make a point for you, which is just gonna take

467
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 1: you to the next level. And the other part of it, too,

468
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: is that yes, they're playing better week after week, but

469
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: at the same time, there's still that quote unquote inconsistency

470
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 1: aspect of it, where you're you're just don't a thousand

471
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: percent trust what kind of offense you're gonna get that

472
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 1: day or how long it's gonna take for them to

473
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: kind of get things moving. And by that time when

474
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,919
Speaker 1: they get things rolling, is it too late? Is the

475
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 1: opposing team just way ahead of you. So that's another

476
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 1: point to look at. But I think that, yeah, this year,

477
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 1: I'm going all in. Give me whoever you can bring

478
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 1: it here, doesn't matter you know who's number one or

479
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,199
Speaker 1: just have them all out there. There's a space for

480
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,159
Speaker 1: you and we can always use you. Bring it. Just

481
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: bring it. I wish he was a cornerback. I wish

482
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 1: he was an all cornerback. I could take that. Yeah, yeah,

483
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: you could probably use that right now. But yeah, everything

484
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: that these guys said about the players, absolutely right. Yeah,

485
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: one more thing about Odell. I mean, well Odell and CD.

486
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 1: You know, I've said this a bunch of times that

487
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 1: you know this, if you try to sign him, you're

488
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: pretty much making sure that you're going to I think

489
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 1: you're going to make a decision on what you want

490
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 1: to do with CD as well. And the good thing

491
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 1: for CD is that he's playing right now, like you

492
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: want to keep him on your football team. Because if

493
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 1: he was the best five receivers in the league right

494
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 1: and he's playing right right now, he is, and so

495
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: if he wasn't, though, and you would be like, all right, well,

496
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:07,880
Speaker 1: this is kind of weird because I mean, we're gonna

497
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 1: sign him. We also signed Gallup, and then what are

498
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: we gonna do with CD? But if this means that

499
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,679
Speaker 1: next year in the offseason, the CD's agent says, Hello,

500
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 1: we want a little something done as well. Let's start.

501
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: Let's start, you know, feeding us. I think he'd be like, oh, well,

502
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 1: let's figure it out, because he's playing like a guy

503
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 1: you want to keep on your football dam When he

504
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 1: made that move back over the middle late in the game,

505
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,879
Speaker 1: caught a pass over the middle and third down and

506
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: then he went backwards to go around. That was just

507
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 1: a shifty type play that you've seen in college so

508
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: many times. And that's right, that's the Oklahoma CD right there, right,

509
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 1: ball across the middle. All of a sudden, everybody's got

510
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: angles and he's killing angles with the way he's running

511
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: the ball or he's making moves. It makes you just

512
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 1: like you overrun the play. Yeah, he was. That's the

513
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 1: kind of dynamic player that I think everyone that evaluated

514
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: him thought question getting where they drafted him where they

515
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: drafted him, And he's showing flashes of that sense he'd

516
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 1: been with the Cowboys. Over these last several games, you're

517
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,640
Speaker 1: starting to see it more consistently every week. He's now

518
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,879
Speaker 1: giving you these plays in these moments where you really

519
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 1: need somebody and he's playing you know, like like Amber said,

520
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 1: he's playing with some with some grit, you know, like

521
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 1: they ran the ball with him a couple of times.

522
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: Be careful with that, you know what I mean, because

523
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 1: he's not Jim Brown. I mean, like he can't just

524
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: keep oh I'm gonna lower my showl and everybody, because

525
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: he's gonna lose some of those. But he is running

526
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: the ball well, and he's finishing runs, which you don't

527
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:31,880
Speaker 1: really talk about a number one receiver about finishing the play,

528
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,400
Speaker 1: finishing the runs. Well, some of Zeke's is like kind

529
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: of rubbing off of him. That's what I saw in him,

530
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: just kind of that Zeke ability that he just kind

531
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: of keeps fighting for those extra yards or whatever. He

532
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 1: keeps going at it. So it's it's it's really impressive

533
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 1: and very very exciting to see this happening at the time,

534
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: that is happening in December, exactly when you need them

535
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 1: to be playing this way. All right, let's talk about

536
00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: the offensive line. Yesterday they allowed one sack throughout the course.

537
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 1: Right then, they were going for what four straight games

538
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 1: without a sack, three straight games something like that without

539
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 1: a sack. But the good thing is you look at that,

540
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: and you look at the fact that they allowed they

541
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,880
Speaker 1: will the primary catalyst behind that two hundred and twenty

542
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: yards on the ground. All in all accounts, it was

543
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: a really good day for the offensive line. That being said,

544
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 1: we also saw a lot of moving around, Nick, you

545
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 1: mentioned it, Tyler Smith moving to guards, some Conor mcgrev,

546
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: Conor McGovern staying in at guard, while Jason Peters was

547
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 1: a tackle. What did you guys take from all that

548
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 1: you saw yesterday with regards to the guard, the left guard,

549
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 1: left tackle and what they were doing with it kind

550
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 1: of feel like that when you watched them play, and

551
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: you know it's It's funny because Stephen Jones has always

552
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,199
Speaker 1: been one of those guys about continuity. You know, you

553
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 1: always talk about well, same five guys. You know we've

554
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: had continuity, continuity, continewy. I asked him a question one

555
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: oh five three the fan. I'm like, we're in a

556
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 1: new era here, boss, No continuity, it's all just and

557
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: he goes, yeah, it's kind of weird. You know when

558
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 1: you look at how you know you got guys, you

559
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 1: want to play them, you want to keep them ready,

560
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,239
Speaker 1: you want to do all those things, and you know

561
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: they really are. They're preparing themselves for when Tyron Smith

562
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 1: comes back. Tyron Smith is we've talked about this, We've

563
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: been on this from day one about him and when

564
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,360
Speaker 1: he's going to come back. You're going to see Tyron

565
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 1: Smith practice this week and can you get him ready?

566
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 1: I don't think it's this weekend, but the Jacksonville game

567
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: sure looks like a possibility where you'll see you know now.

568
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 1: I mean personally, I think you might see a rotation

569
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 1: at left guard. I don't think I would take McGovern

570
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: necessarily off the field on some stuff. If you want

571
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,400
Speaker 1: to take Tyler Smith and McGovern and kind of work

572
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 1: them together. But then like, it's good to kind of

573
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,440
Speaker 1: keep Peter's fresh and get him some work because if

574
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: something does happen, you don't want him to have to

575
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 1: completely come in in week seventeen in a game and

576
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 1: be cold. By getting him work, at least you're keeping

577
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: his conditioning up and being ready if something does happen.

578
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 1: But I think they're absolutely doing this thing the right

579
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 1: way when it comes to all these guys playing. I

580
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:03,880
Speaker 1: think Peters did a nice job in the game yesterday.

581
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,679
Speaker 1: I told you what I thought about Beaddish, you know,

582
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:08,919
Speaker 1: and you know he I thought he had one of

583
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 1: his best games. And that's that's difficult. I felt like

584
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,399
Speaker 1: one of the strengths of the Colts defensive line was

585
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,360
Speaker 1: inside at those tackles, and there were several times where

586
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 1: he was one on one and was able to finish

587
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 1: up pretty well. Yeah. I mean, and and you know,

588
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,120
Speaker 1: Terrence Steele not not playing. I'm practicing a lot during

589
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: the week, had some personal issues he was dealing with,

590
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 1: and he came back and he played and you know,

591
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: all in all, two hundred and something rushing yards to twenty.

592
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 1: Everyone's you know, for for that kind of shuffling around

593
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: and still having that kind of success even at the

594
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: end of the game. Malie Davis, you know, I mean

595
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: like they're just they did what they wanted to do

596
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: and that that's just a dominant effort and it's it

597
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 1: was fun to watch. I mean and say what you want,

598
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: Colts aren't or a good team whatever, but um, you

599
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 1: shouldn't be getting, you know, beat down like that. And

600
00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys are a hungry team because they

601
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 1: are they're still chasing. Yeah, they see what they made

602
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: the Colts. They made the Colts quit yesterday, they did.

603
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 1: They made the Colts quit, and that was the whole

604
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,239
Speaker 1: idea to you know, to try and do that, you know,

605
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: because they they don't score a lot of points, they

606
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: don't finish games particularly well. So yeah, that thirty yard

607
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: run you started seeing, so a little bit of quit

608
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 1: out there on the Colts. Yeah, to me, they were

609
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 1: they were kind of like hyenas, Like what you see

610
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: of hyenas when they were taking packs and as soon

611
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: as they they sensed that they got the prey where

612
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: they want them, Oh, they all attack and there's no

613
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 1: pulling them back. And that was what that fourth quarter

614
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: felt like to me yesterday, Like they just there was

615
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: there was blood there and they were like, Oh, we're

616
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: going to finish them, We're gonna eat. Well. There's sometimes

617
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 1: this team doesn't like prosperity. There's sometimes they don't like it.

618
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: Make it easy. They made it easy yesterday. They really

619
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 1: really did. Yeah, and the only thing that didn't happen

620
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: was a sack by Mark Michael Parsons. I mean that's

621
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 1: that's about it, you know, Yeah, Mia Michael. In the

622
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: locker room after the game, it was interesting because you

623
00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 1: know he was I think he's happy for the for

624
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 1: the win, don't get me wrong. Well you could you

625
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 1: could tell he's just a little different in the locker

626
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: room when there's no sacks versus when there's two sacks,

627
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 1: because that's really the only two options for him. It's

628
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 1: either going to be zero, it's going to be more

629
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 1: than than two. Yeah, you mean to be the wet

630
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 1: blanket guy. The only thing that I was really disappoint

631
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: you had a blocked extra point, you know, and that

632
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 1: was over between the center and then McGovern if you've

633
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 1: talked about offensive line, yeah, that was that. You don't

634
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 1: want to go back and watch that play because Fossil

635
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 1: said after the game I talked to him walking out

636
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 1: and he said that he went to the officials because

637
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 1: they did something that the Occults did something that was

638
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 1: pretty much illegal. They overloaded that one side is what

639
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 1: they did. But they if he's sandy to hit the center,

640
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 1: I don't know, because the center, the center Overton got turned.

641
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: He got I mean, he opened up bad and then

642
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: that had just allowed you know, the rush to get through.

643
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,959
Speaker 1: But they were they were bad at center, and they

644
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 1: were bad at the right guard and Mahars extra points

645
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 1: are hugging that right up right. I don't know if

646
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 1: you noticed that, but getting well, that's what they're doing.

647
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: That's what they're doing. They're they're rushing. They're rushing off

648
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 1: that side because people are feeling like the ball is

649
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 1: since they're on that hash, that he's going to start

650
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 1: it right. So they're overloading that the Cowboys right side

651
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 1: to rush. Yeah, it is. If you want to be

652

Speaker 1: a nitpicky about a special teams play the boy that

653
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 1: one was. That one was kind of a bad one.

Speaker 1: Life in SWBC Mortgage Studios at this or let's talk defense.

701
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: Yesterday the Cowboys defense only allowed one hundred and six

702
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 1: yards on the ground on thirty carries. That was a

703
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 1: three point five average. Question is is a run defense fixed? Finally? Um?

704
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: I think so. I mean, I think that they've they've

705
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:19,840
Speaker 1: figured out that, you know, it's fixed against teams that

706
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 1: don't have running quarterbacks. But I think that's true when

707
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:28,800
Speaker 1: you quarterback though, there's more dynamics that and so yeah,

708
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: if you if you got the statues back there, yeah,

709
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 1: I think I think that's fine. But let's let's see

710
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 1: what happens when you get a quarterback that can, that

711
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 1: can move a little bit more when you look at

712
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: the rest of their schedule. You got Philly obviously, that

713
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: is that is there another team that you'd be concerned

714
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: about from from that standpoint? I mean Tennessee's guy runs

715
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 1: a little bit. He does yesterday. He was a wide

716
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 1: receiver in college. Yeah, Hill and and and I would imagine.

717
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think he's gonna run any sprinting contest,

718
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: but I think Trevor Lawrence can probably. Yeah, he's tall, lanking,

719
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,239
Speaker 1: he can you know, it can move around. Yeah, you know,

720
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 1: he's gonna just take off if you need to. So, uh,

721
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 1: nothing like what the Eagles do, you know, as far

722
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 1: as that type of thing. But you know, when you

723
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,280
Speaker 1: when you talk about the Eagles, though they've got two

724
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: really good receivers, Diggs can't cover both of them. So

725
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,760
Speaker 1: that's that's gonna be a problem there. Yep, we're getting

726
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 1: to that at all. We'll say that for another day more.

727
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: We're not gonna talk about Oh no, no no, yes, we're

728
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 1: gonna talk about that, okay, but not the other oh

729
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: the Eagles. Yeah. Um, I think it's too soon to

730
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 1: say it's fixed. I think the sample size is still

731
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: pretty small, and looking at the opposing teams that we

732
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: played like Nicks, I mean, that's a great point. It

733
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 1: all depends what the quarterback does. So right now I

734
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: think they've taken step to get steps to get better,

735
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 1: but it's still the sample size is not enough for

736
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 1: me to say it's completely fixed. We'll have to see

737
00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:00,040
Speaker 1: kind of in two weeks what that looks like. But

738
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,760
Speaker 1: I like where it's going. I like where it's trending,

739
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 1: and I like what they're doing. And even if it's

740
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 1: a small adjustment, it's still taking a step forward. They're

741
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,720
Speaker 1: better with Hankins and they're playing as a defensive tackle,

742
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 1: that's for sure. Teams have a hard time. The nineteen

743
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,840
Speaker 1: yard run they gave up was kind of a bad play.

744
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,319
Speaker 1: They had it for a gain of maybe three or

745
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 1: four and it turned into nineteen yards because nobody felt

746
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: they needed to use their arms to tackle on that Pa.

747
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 1: It's almost like they lost him there. Well, it's funny

748
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 1: because they had a chance to tackle. It would have

749
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,719
Speaker 1: been like a three or four yard game, which they've

750
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 1: been doing a really good job. But all of a sudden,

751
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,600
Speaker 1: you know, he goes in there. He's bouncing off guys

752
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 1: and then he's out the back door and it's a

753
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 1: nineteen yard game, and you know, you would have been

754
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 1: in a situation a lot better off. I think they are.

755
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: I think they're getting more bodies to the ball. I

756
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,319
Speaker 1: think they're kind of figuring out about you know, they

757
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 1: have to get off blocks. They're not getting hooked. I

758
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: think teams are still going to try perimeter runs on

759
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 1: you though. I think that you know, there's a couple

760
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: of times there the ball you know, got to the edge.

761
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 1: But you know, like I say, Wilson did a really

762
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,320
Speaker 1: good job having him in the game. I just really

763
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 1: like what Hankins has been able to do, especially inside.

764
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: I mean, he is not he's just not a guy

765
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 1: that's sitting there holding on blocks. He's being really active.

766
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 1: He's he's forcing blockers to have to take him. And

767
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 1: then when the backs are running they see indecision the

768
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,799
Speaker 1: it's like, I'm not sure where the hole is here,

769
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 1: So yeah, you know that's somebody make a safe and

770
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,839
Speaker 1: then you know, I'm sorry, p k's are going on here.

771
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,799
Speaker 1: It's the only place you just make a safe. Yeah,

772
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,480
Speaker 1: the only part of the soccer I like, like to

773
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 1: me like this is this is fun, like this is

774
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:36,680
Speaker 1: fun soccer. When you get to the the well, you

775
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 1: know what's not fun? Uh, what's happening now that we're

776
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,919
Speaker 1: talking about the run defense? I started thinking, Okay, what's

777
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 1: happening a cornerback and how that's gonna affect possibly how

778
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: they've are managing like the run defense. I feel like,

779
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 1: now you're gonna need help with like linebackers, because I

780
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,760
Speaker 1: do think there was a moment in this game. Obviously

781
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:02,719
Speaker 1: it was I think was the first touchdown Indianapolis had.

782
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 1: On that drive, you saw Anthony Brown give up a

783
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 1: forty five yard play pass downfield. And this is not

784
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,880
Speaker 1: the first time we've seen that. And as the season

785
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 1: has gone on, it seems like teams more and more

786
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 1: frequently are starting to say, Hey, that guy over there

787
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 1: at number three, he's a target down field, like we

788
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,840
Speaker 1: should be going after him. And these aren't even against

789
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,919
Speaker 1: necessarily the best receivers on the opposing teams. They're just saying,

790
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:27,839
Speaker 1: put one of your guys out there and let him

791
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: go downfield and win one on one, and they're winning.

792
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 1: So when you start talking about Anthony Brown now, and

793
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 1: for those that haven't heard, there's there's a speculation that

794
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 1: he's lost for the season. Jerry kind of mentioned it

795
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 1: that it looks like it might be an achilles, he'd

796
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 1: be done for the season. How much are you really

797
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 1: missing or how much of a delta is there between

798
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: Anthony Brown and, let's say in the for the sake

799
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:55,359
Speaker 1: of argument, Kelvin Joseph. Me personally, I kind of feel like, okay,

800
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,879
Speaker 1: if you want to talk about running game. The one

801
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,879
Speaker 1: thing I know about Kelvin Joseph official forward, because we've

802
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 1: seen him tackle on special teams. You know, we'll see

803
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: he has that aggressive mentality. We've seen Bland come up

804
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 1: and tackle, you know, with ball in the flat, he

805
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 1: comes charging up. I actually feel like you're going to

806
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 1: be better on the outside playing the run defense when

807
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: you got guys that are willing to set the edge,

808
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 1: you know, more of a willingness to step up and

809
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: make those plays. Has been a problem on Anthony Brown's Yeah,

810
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 1: you know, it's been both. It's been both. I mean

811
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,839
Speaker 1: and Brown is it's Brown is just a smaller guy

812
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,720
Speaker 1: and sometimes he just gets bounced. I mean, he's standing

813
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,360
Speaker 1: there and he gets bounced, and you know that with

814
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,520
Speaker 1: when you got guys like Joseph and Bland. They do

815
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,240
Speaker 1: a good job of seeing it and is flying forward

816
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 1: and I think that's where I think that's where you're

817
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 1: going to benefit. Now, I'll say this about Joseph in coverage.

818
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 1: Joseph has not played a lot of football, and I

819
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 1: mean that at LSU he didn't play very much. He

820
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:54,880
Speaker 1: was like one season he didn't play very much at

821
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,240
Speaker 1: Kentucky and the next thing you know, he's now playing

822
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,200
Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys. I kind of feel like there's

823
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 1: a reason why that Dan Quinn and those and Will

824
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: McClay went to Lexington, Kentucky to work on this guy

825
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 1: and then they draft him. I think the ability is

826
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: absolutely there. The special team's play was bad yesterday. You know,

827
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,959
Speaker 1: you gotta have better awareness, but you look at his situation.

828
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 1: I do think he can cover. I think he's fast enough.

829
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 1: I don't think you're gonna run by him, and I

830
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: think he's gonna compete. You know, those are all give

831
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 1: me if you tell me this guy is going to

832
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 1: get more reps and more opportunity and more time to

833
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:34,280
Speaker 1: practice at his craft. I think there's a legitimate player

834
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 1: there for you. I really do, And this might be

835
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 1: one of those things. I think something's wrong with Anthony Brown,

836
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 1: I really do. I don't know if it was confidence.

837
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:43,440
Speaker 1: I don't know if he was injured. You know, the

838
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 1: play he got hurt on was really unfortunate. It was

839
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 1: the screenplay that they ran for a big yard. He

840
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: got pulled. I mean the blocker grabs him. I mean

841
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,440
Speaker 1: Pierce pulls his jersey and he gets yank back, and

842
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 1: that's where his achilles ruptures. You know, he's trying to

843
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 1: step and then he stepped and then it's it kind

844
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 1: of yanks and you know, it's like it's one of

845
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: those injuries, like if you yank a guy from behind,

846
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: it blows out his hamstring, just sudden stops. I think

847
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:11,280
Speaker 1: that's what happened in this game. But I I'm confident

848
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 1: that they will figure out between Bland and then and Joseph.

849
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,920
Speaker 1: With the number of reps that these guys will get

850
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 1: in practice, I think you'll see two young guys that

851
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 1: will fight and compete and be better for it. I

852
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: just he scares you because he's a reckless player, and

853
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: he's reckless on how he plays um. And I'm just

854
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 1: talking about it on the field. Obviously, off the field,

855
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 1: there's been his thing. Um, but that's but you know,

856
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 1: beyond that reckless of course, but on the field, he's

857
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 1: a penalty waiting to happen and he and it just

858
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like structure is always that important as far

859
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:47,960
Speaker 1: as like, well, run down here. I mean he's just

860
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 1: gonna hit someone or do you know, run forty five

861
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 1: yards or whatever. And and you know that scary that

862
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,879
Speaker 1: scares you to death when he's covering somebody. And and

863
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:57,560
Speaker 1: you know, I think if he gets in a crew

864
00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 1: where they throw a lot of pis, I think that

865
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, he gives up a touchdown, they

866
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 1: throw it, you know, and and he's he's going to

867
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 1: give up some plays, probably more so than than Brown.

868
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 1: But like y'all said, Brown has been making some as well.

869
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 1: Uh maybe, like Brian said, he's got to continue to

870
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,439
Speaker 1: play against you need to play. But I'm definitely gonna

871
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 1: look at my options. I'm looking at my options on

872
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 1: outside of this football team to try to get a

873
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 1: little bit more stability at that position. You were a person,

874
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 1: I think, Craig, if I'm wrong, that earlier, going back

875
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 1: to training camp, you kind of wanted to see Mkuamu

876
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:34,880
Speaker 1: down at corner a little bit more. Is that something

877
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:36,879
Speaker 1: you still would hope to see. I don't think they'll

878
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 1: do that. I don't think they'll do that. And you know,

879
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:43,399
Speaker 1: Nashan Wright is a player that mean drafts a third round.

880
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,839
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, you know what, I still

881
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,799
Speaker 1: think he is a a safety type player. I don't

882
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: think he's a corner so much, but they might we

883
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 1: might get to see that a little bit. I don't

884
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 1: know what the Sheffield he's been on the practice squad, right,

885
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,920
Speaker 1: Kendall Sheffield. I mean, you just gotta look at look

886
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 1: at options. I mean, but they're committed to Kelvin Joseph.

887
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:09,640
Speaker 1: They're committed because based off this offseason, if you weren't committed,

888
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 1: you would let him go. You would let him go.

889
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 1: So they're committed, and this is the opportunity that I'm

890
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 1: just hoping that they're Like you said, I'm hoping that

891
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:20,200
Speaker 1: the reps. I'm hoping that the reps give him confidence

892
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,920
Speaker 1: that you're right, because I saw it was funny you

893
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 1: said that, because I saw your tweet last night. Is

894
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 1: is there anybody that gets more penalties for the number

895
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 1: of plays he plays in the game than this guy?

896
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,479
Speaker 1: And that's something that But I also feel like though

897
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:36,360
Speaker 1: that he's the one guy that he's got more ability

898
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 1: and that he really do I love Bland, I really do.

899
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 1: I think Bland. I think somebody out in out in

900
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,920
Speaker 1: California missed that guy playing Pack twelve football. But you

901
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:48,120
Speaker 1: watch at what he's been able to do, how confident

902
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,399
Speaker 1: he plays, what three interceptions already this year for him,

903
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:53,520
Speaker 1: great for him to do that, But I think they'll

904
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,760
Speaker 1: figure it out between Bland and then also with Joseph,

905
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:58,879
Speaker 1: I really really do you know? I want to buy

906
00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 1: while your eyes are seeing because I trust your expertise

907
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:06,080
Speaker 1: and your years of experience and what you watch on film.

908
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,240
Speaker 1: But right now this is a compliment sandwich I found.

909
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 1: Man Well, I mean, I'm sorry, I don't want it

910
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,840
Speaker 1: right now. Do you know this guy has made me

911
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 1: more angry than happy, Like there's there's only ones that

912
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: I was like, oh that was pretty nice, But other

913
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:25,080
Speaker 1: than that, I'm just upset every time. And I think

914
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,239
Speaker 1: that at this point of the year. And another thing

915
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:34,360
Speaker 1: like that play where Hooker got the interception he starts running.

916
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:36,560
Speaker 1: I put up a video on there, but if you

917
00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 1: watch the replay, I mean, Joseph kind of goes as

918
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,239
Speaker 1: if he's about to tackle the guy, like tackle his

919
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: own teammate and stop him and Hooker he was. He

920
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 1: kept going, you know, he kept running us, not very

921
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:54,080
Speaker 1: aware exactly. That's the problem awareness, Like dude, what are

922
00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 1: you doing? But at the same time, that's that's the

923
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: point that we're in the month of December, heading into

924
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:03,880
Speaker 1: mid December. I don't think now is enough time for

925
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,799
Speaker 1: him to take the next step to get to the

926
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,840
Speaker 1: next level. I think maybe next year you see what

927
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 1: he does at training camp, if there's really an extensive

928
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 1: amount of things that he's doing out there that gives

929
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:20,880
Speaker 1: you hope or whatever keep him if not by because

930
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 1: right now I'm just like, but the point is, like

931
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 1: who do you have? You know, well, that's why that's

932
00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: why I kind of say that you give Bland and

933
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 1: Joseph both the opportunity to play, and you know you're

934
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,480
Speaker 1: going to kind of have rather see more of Bland.

935
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,399
Speaker 1: Oh no, I mean they might, they might very well

936
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:43,399
Speaker 1: see that too, But there there is somebody upstairs that

937
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 1: put his you know what on the line. Yeah, for

938
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 1: Kelvin Joseph to be here and to nixt point, there's

939
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,440
Speaker 1: a reason why they didn't send him into the streets

940
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:55,359
Speaker 1: when all that went down in the streets. You know,

941
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 1: so somebody, somebody is like thinking we might need this guy.

942
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,440
Speaker 1: Well to your point, I can't no, I can't disagree

943
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 1: with your point. It just comes with experience. It's it's

944
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 1: the experience that's the year. That's what I think that

945
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 1: he has not played a lot of football. They took

946
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 1: a gamble on a guy that has not played a

947
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:17,719
Speaker 1: lot of football. I think you're gonna get into a

948
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:22,240
Speaker 1: situation where, you know, a whole week of of reps

949
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:25,479
Speaker 1: and and prep going into a game. I could see

950
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 1: where you know, you're sitting in the press box going,

951
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,040
Speaker 1: all right, they're really picking on Joseph here today. You

952
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 1: know they're going at him, going at him. How does

953
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 1: he respond to that? That's going to be the key.

954
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 1: But you know that he gets a penalty. Because cornerback

955
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: confidence is a huge thing and it can snowball on you.

956
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,800
Speaker 1: We've seen it with really good players like Terrence Newman.

957
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:45,600
Speaker 1: I remember a game at his last few games with

958
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:49,239
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, his confidence just wasn't there, and he still

959
00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,959
Speaker 1: played six more years in the league um and played

960
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,560
Speaker 1: a fifteen year career but at that moment right then,

961
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 1: he just didn't have it anymore. And so confidence can

962
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,759
Speaker 1: be a tricky thing for corners. I hopefully he can

963
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:03,360
Speaker 1: you not get in one of those ruts. Well and

964
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 1: real quick, I know we're about to leave, but you're

965
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 1: talking about confidence. Let me to think. We know these

966
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:13,640
Speaker 1: defensive players. They get mad and they started like yelling

967
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 1: at you and we saw it out forgot what game

968
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 1: was that in Green Bay? Green Bay where they I'm

969
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:20,680
Speaker 1: not saying they were turning on each other, but it

970
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 1: kind of seemed that way. And then they got into like, well,

971
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 1: we just like to have people take accountability for what

972
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 1: the role is, take to your role and do your job.

973
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 1: It does concern me in a scenario where now you

974
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,760
Speaker 1: got a guy like Kelvin Joseph, a young guy who's

975
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:40,960
Speaker 1: trying to learn whatever but making these mistakes. How are

976
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 1: his teammates reacting to that? Then does that kind of

977
00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 1: take a toll on him as a player, his confidence?

978
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:50,319
Speaker 1: And then it just goes downhill from that because that's

979
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,359
Speaker 1: a big thing with this defense. They want you to

980
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:54,600
Speaker 1: do your job, do what you're supposed to do, and

981
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:57,719
Speaker 1: if you're not, I mean I'm not gonna say, turn

982
00:47:57,760 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 1: on you. But it's just it creates a little bit

983
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:02,080
Speaker 1: of conflict. I think this is gonna be big on

984
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,920
Speaker 1: Dan Quinn and it's gonna be big on Al Harris

985
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: and those guys and Joe wit As how they get

986
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 1: this kid ready every week. They've got to pump him up.

987
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:11,600
Speaker 1: They've got to pump him up. They've got to pump

988
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 1: him up to the team, you know. I mean they

989
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,799
Speaker 1: got to point out when when Joseph makes a good

990
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 1: play or even bland, when they make good plays in practice,

991
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 1: the right reads, hey, good job, good job. You know

992
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: that kind of thing, because that's gonna be important. There's

993
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:24,160
Speaker 1: a lot of people like you an bar and a

994
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 1: lot of people are out there that just gonna like, man,

995
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 1: I don't trust this guy. I don't This guy hasn't

996
00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:32,480
Speaker 1: shown me anything for my trust to be there. But

997
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:35,439
Speaker 1: we're to the point now where you're like, you got

998
00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 1: to get somebody ready, Like in San Francisco right now,

999
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,000
Speaker 1: they got to get you know, they're got to get

1000
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 1: a quarterback or readie out there. You know, they're they're in,

1001
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 1: they're in the I mean, nobody's feeling sorry for you

1002
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 1: right now that you just lost your starting corner that

1003
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 1: you got to figure out with the guys. You got

1004
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:51,320
Speaker 1: how to make this work. And I think this is

1005
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 1: gonna be on Quinn and Wit and then Al Harris

1006
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 1: and them to get these catch or readie all right,

1007
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:58,560
Speaker 1: appreciate you guys, Yellnis, We'll be back tomorrow. Bron's gonna

Speaker 1: have a game for us on Susie tomorrow. Go little
