00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:34,239
Speaker 1: to the Players on batty By Hotels dot Com. It's

00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: about the players on this show. To former Dallas Cowboys

8
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 1: safety's Barry Church, who's in studio right now with me

9
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: and Danny McCray, the Ultimate Survivor. Danny was on Survivor

10
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: last night. He's got the day off. He's doing some

11
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 1: work on assignment here, so he's down there in Houston.

12
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if he got to go watch the

13
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 1: Astros get gained two of it. They ended up getting

14
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: out once, so I know he was banging on some

15
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: trash can after that victory. Man. I know, yes, yes,

16
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: the Astros are trying to get this thing done. I

17
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: am if Dusty Baker wins the manager. I'll be happy

18
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: for Dusty, even if he's winning with them. I said,

19
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 1: it's I don't care about the Astros. I like Dusty

20
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 1: Baker a respect who's gone through some things, and man,

21
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: what about your boy with Ron? And that was the

22
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: next thing was out of my mouth is if Dusty

23
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: doesn't win, then I'll be happy for Ron Washington, third

24
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: base coach of the Braves, who was a manager with

25
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: the Texas Rangers and hopefully can be the man next

26
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: manager of the San Diego Padre. So either way, I'm

27
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: gonna be happy. You win it for two long time

28
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: guys who who deserved rings. All right, So Shaun Lee, Yeah,

29
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 1: we got the man in him. Okay, Shaun Lee number

30
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: fifty with the Dallas Cowboys. When you just talk about professionals,

31
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: that's the word I think of Shaun Lee without a

32
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: doubt when he played for the Dallas Cows. It's just

33
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: a pure professional. And you say that word, but church

34
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: you look at a guy like Ben Simmons, Okay, professional

35
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: there last year, James Hard with what he was going

36
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: through with the right profession there's a lot of guys.

37
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: That word doesn't apply to very talented people. Yeah, and

38
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: that word applies to Sean Lee one hundred percent fold.

39
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: I mean this, dude, when you talk about a constant

40
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: professional and just a student of the game, I don't

41
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: think I've ever been around anybody who's been quite like

42
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 1: him when it comes to study in this game. I mean,

43
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: this guy put so much pressure on himself to be

44
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: that guy, to be the leader of his defense, to

45
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 1: be the key playmaker of his defense. And when he

46
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: was healthy, I mean, I would say he was arguably

47
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: one of the top linebackers in the NFL. Win healthy.

48
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:31,679
Speaker 1: The only thing that kind of drew him back a

49
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: little bit was those injuries that you know, seemed to

50
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 1: happen throughout the end of his career, towards the middle

51
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: of the end of part of his career. But while healthy,

52
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: this guy is one of the best linebackers I've ever

53
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: seen a student of the game. The way he dissected things,

54
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: it was very Peyton Manning Drew Brees like, like, I mean,

55
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: would he would know exactly all right, when all right,

56
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: that guard's pulling this way or doing the pitch. I

57
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: mean a lot of the tackles I made was just

58
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: from listening to this guy, it's coming your way, Church

59
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: is coming your way. I'm like, oh, all right, let's

60
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: do it. Then let's get it going. So that guy

61
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: helped my game out a ton, and he helped everybody

62
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: around him a ton, and there was defenses where we

63
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: had no business even being on the field. But that

64
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,519
Speaker 1: guy just had everybody going in the right direction. And

65
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 1: I mean, you just can't say enough about this guy.

66
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: I think of linebackers who vocal leaders and guys who

67
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: who performed well on the field. I think Ray Lewis,

68
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 1: I think Luke Keithley, Bobby Wagner and Sean Lee was

69
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: up there in that same ilk in terms of just

70
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 1: being able to make a defense better, know what whatever

71
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: I need to do? All right, it sounds like we

72
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: could hear hear the birds chirping in uh in Santa Barbara, beautiful,

73
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,119
Speaker 1: I can hear you, guys, can you hear me? Yeah? Yeah,

74
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: we got you, man, we got he made it to

75
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: what's up? What's up? I think let's go. Let's go. Man.

76
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: It looks amazing, right are you? Are you in Santa

77
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: Barbara right now? It looks amazing in the background. Man,

78
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: I am in Santa Barbara right now. And I've become

79
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: spoiled being out here. Believe me, I can believe that.

80
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. I have gotten spoiled. I've got

81
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: spoiled with the weather and Um, listen, lost all my

82
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: street cred coming out here. He lost a little bit

83
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: of the street cred, brother, and I'm stuck. I lost

84
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: a lot of my street cred, you know that. And

85
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: you've lost some of yours too. Don't like like you

86
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: have any of this is true. This is true. I

87
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 1: lost the tad been out there, man. So so what's

88
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: what you've been up to? Man? Since since your playing

89
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 1: days have been done? What you've been up to? Um?

90
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 1: You know what. I've been playing some basketball at the

91
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,679
Speaker 1: y n C. A UM. My game is slowly getting

92
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: to get back to that high school form. But that's

93
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 1: been my competitive outlet. Um, working out a lot, a

94
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: little bit of work for the scouting department, having a

95
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: lot of fun learning from those guys at different perspective

96
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: on football and seeing all the work they put in,

97
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: the level of detail that they work with, you know,

98
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 1: not only in the pro side of it, but the

99
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: college side of it. Finding guys going get different colleges,

100
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: searching things out and learning the tricks of the trade

101
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 1: from those guys. Has been a lot of fun. So

102
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,479
Speaker 1: still a football a little bit and it's been great.

103
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: That's awesome, man. So so you're doing a little bit

104
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: of scouting for the Cowboys here, you're grading the linebackers.

105
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: What to me has what to you has stood out

106
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: about this this linebacker corps. I mean, I know we

107
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: got Parsons in there, Keyan O'Neil in there, and they

108
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 1: seem to be able to turn this defense around. You know,

109
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 1: what have you seen from this linebacking corps so far

110
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: this season? I mean when you start with Mica, first

111
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: thing as a rookie, to make as many plays and

112
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: handle I know, Church we can talk about as a rookie.

113
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: I mean we got in the field, you were just

114
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: trying to get lined up, do your job exactly, and

115
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: just not making mistake. I mean, making plays was another thing.

116
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 1: You were just trying to not make mistakes. And for

117
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 1: a young guy to come in and play on the

118
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, to play middle linebacker, to play outside linebacker,

119
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: and do all the things he's done, it's incredible. I mean,

120
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 1: he's he's obviously an outrageous athlete and having that type

121
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: of speed at that size is almost unheard of, you know,

122
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: And and they've asked him, like I've said, they've asked

123
00:05:58,640 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: them to do a lot to be able to go

124
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 1: to the become a defensive end, and really, I don't

125
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 1: think he's rushed consistently as a defensive end since high school.

126
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 1: And to come in and be able to make plays

127
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,239
Speaker 1: and dominate that position, I mean, it really is absurved

128
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: what he's been able to do. And I love watching

129
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: him on film with the intensity, the hustle, the speed

130
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 1: he plays with. And then they you know, Keano is

131
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 1: obviously another great athlete who's played safety but moves extremely well,

132
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: plays with such physicality, toughness, instincts. You know, he's been

133
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: fun to watch. And then you know my guy Layton,

134
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 1: who is an unbelievable football player in all Pro. A big,

135
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: long guy who can cover so much ground, plays with instincts,

136
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: plays tough. So you put all those guys in there,

137
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: the type of athleticism, some of the experience along with

138
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: the whole defense man, they're playing the right way. If

139
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: I don't know what you think, Church, but that it's

140
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: one thing to make plays. It's another thing weekend and

141
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: week out to play with a certain type of effort.

142
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: And they've done that. Yeah, they're they're flying around the

143
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: football right now. And another guy wanted to talk about

144
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 1: a little bit as a guy at know we played

145
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: with in his earlier years and he had a little

146
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: he had a rocky start in his earlier years. And

147
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Randy Gregory. What type of transformation have

148
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: you seen from this guy? Because he you know, we

149
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: were there in an early stages when it was a

150
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: little bumpy, But now he seems to have gotten his

151
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: stuff together and he's proven on his football field that

152
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: he can be dynamic at the defensive end position. What

153
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: are your thoughts on Randy Gregory going forward. I'm so

154
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: happy for him because you know, we've all you know Randy,

155
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: he's such a great guy who's always loved football, and

156
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: he dealt with some stuff early in his career, but

157
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: he always was trying to be proactive handling it. And

158
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: you got to give him credit for reaching out, working

159
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: on himself consistently, trying to come back and improve. But

160
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: I've known since the day one put him on the

161
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. Is there a guy with a get

162
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: off like him who can bend with the flexibility and

163
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 1: plays with that type of motor. I mean, he is

164
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: a rare guy and he's showing it right now. I

165
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: mean he's dominating. Last game last week, I mean the

166
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: type of game he had against New England. He has

167
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: the two sacks, he has a holding call that that

168
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: brings back a touchdown, and then the next play is

169
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: that is a strip sack that changes the game. I mean,

170
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: he is a complete game changer. He's one of the

171
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: best defensive players in the league right now, and he's

172
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: a catalyst for this defense. And listen, if you had

173
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: told us that a couple of years ago, you would

174
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: hope for that because of the type of player in

175
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: person he is. But I mean, you know, he took

176
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: there was a lot of time off, and it's not

177
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: easy to take time off and come back and to

178
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: see him do what he's doing, Man, it's incredible. He's

179
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: a great guy and he deserves all the credit in

180
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: the world. This is the player's line body by Hotels

181
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 1: dot Com. Barry Church Sean lead to former Dallas Cow

182
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,319
Speaker 1: which to Western Pennsylvania YUS. Oh yeah, whip your baby.

183
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: Both deciding they don't want to live in a winner

184
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 1: in their retirement years. They want to live in Western Princi.

185
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 1: Baba want to be nice weather here and so you know,

186
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: Sean the background over there Santa Barbara looks great and

187
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: it just made me think, since we saw Survivor last

188
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: night with Danny mccraig, maybe that next challenge for you man,

189
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: get you. Oh Danny, Danny's made for Survivor. He's you know,

190
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,719
Speaker 1: he's slicked. Danny knows how to dan, he knows how

191
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: to maneuver. He knows work room, you know what I mean,

192
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 1: he goes out a working room. I can't do that

193
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,839
Speaker 1: like him. Man, I think i'd be, I'd be. I

194
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 1: wouldn't make the cut after week one. They filled me

195
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 1: off the island quick, you know. Oh Man, So you know,

196
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: but I'm rooting for Danny. I love Danny and he's,

197
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: you know, great football player. I think back when we

198
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: were rookies and we were playing special teams together and

199
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: watching you and Danny as rookies just completely dominate and

200
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: me just really struggle on teams, especially in preseason. And

201
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: does YouTube just making it easy and and and talk

202
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: about two guys that I loved playing with and you

203
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: know him and then you as an inspiration. I mean,

204
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: you don't give yourself enough credit for getting people lined up,

205
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 1: the instinct you played with the leadership you displayed you know,

206
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 1: I hoped you make some place where you you helped

207
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: me make a ton of plays. And the confidence that

208
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: I had knowing you were behind me Church and knowing

209
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: Danny was was playing shafety and running on special teams

210
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: was fun. Fun to play with both you guys. Man. Man,

211
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: I loved every bit of it. Man. But you know,

212
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of you know, a lot

213
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 1: of people don't realize about this about Sean, but he

214
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: was a hell of a basketball player in high school

215
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: and whip you in the in the Western PA he

216
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: was well, he was a twenty one in ten guy

217
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: coming out of high school. Right, Yeah. I mean there's

218
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: an argument to say that Western PA basketball is not

219
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 1: that good, and it's a hard argument to win for me.

220
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: So but I loved playing I loved I loved playing basketball.

221
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: You know. When I was fifteen years old, I you know,

222
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: I was trying to be on the AU circuit, trying

223
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 1: to play I mean, I wanted to play play basketball

224
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: in the worst way. But um, you know, my game

225
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: didn't really match up to my height. You know, six two.

226
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: I thought it was going to be at least six

227
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: to five, and it just did. Gotten came around, So

228
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: I didn't come around, So I started. I started getting

229
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: the weight room. I started getting in the weight room,

230
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 1: you know, kind of focus on Yeah. You know, it's

231
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,959
Speaker 1: funny how you get older and then all of a sudden,

232
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 1: everybody keeps growing and you don't. And they can shoot

233
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: as well as you can and dribble in their six seven.

234
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: You know, you got problems. Okay, I got a question

235
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: for both them. Yeah, but I loved it during your

236
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: time with the Cowboys. Question for both of you, who

237
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 1: was the best basketball player on the team. Oh hey,

238
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: so you take that one first, man, take that one first?

239
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: I would I mean, I think bees was pretty good.

240
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 1: Yeah he was. I mean Beasley was crazy quick and

241
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 1: could shoot, could handle, and he could sky for you know,

242
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: he's not a tall guy, but I mean he could.

243
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 1: He could get up and play about the rim. So

244
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 1: just I mean, pound for pound, I would have to

245
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 1: argue him now, being that I, you know, was tearing

246
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: AHL's and pulling handstrings left and right. I didn't. I

247
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: didn't play a lot of I didn't play a lot

248
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: of basketball in the offseason until now, so so I

249
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:55,959
Speaker 1: didn't get to actually play. I didn't get to play

250
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 1: against guys A lot um. But I just know from

251
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: from hearing things Beasley, I know, I know Dez was great.

252
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: You know, we would play a little bit. You know,

253
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 1: back in Oxnard, they had the hoop, and so we

254
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: would play a little bit out there in the parking lot.

255
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: And you know, Dez had that lefty shot and could

256
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: shoot um and there are a couple of guys who

257
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: could really play and and they ended up moving that hoop.

258
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: I think things got could two gets too competitive out

259
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 1: the yeah yeah, dead dead legs on after after a

260
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,200
Speaker 1: off day shouldn't happen. And half the reason why we

261
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 1: were playing basketball in that court out of doubt. What

262
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: about Romo? Because I keep hearing things about Romo Romo,

263
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 1: I should He's gonna He's not gonna be happy. He's

264
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 1: not gonna be happy. That ever bring Roma could play,

265
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 1: I mean, super super slick, great shot. I mean when

266
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 1: it comes to hand eye coordination, I don't know, he's

267
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: one of the best I've ever seen. I mean, can

268
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: play pinball, can play golf, can shoot the basketball, can

269
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 1: shoot the basketball, playing pull basketball. I mean unbelievable set

270
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: of hands on him, and and crafty like a crafty athlete,

271
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 1: like sneaky uses his body well, was quick and um

272
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: great body control. So no, he can play too. Definitely,

273
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 1: he definitely got some game to him as well as

274
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 1: Marty B. Marty B had a he had a little

275
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: game to him as well playing at Tess and he

276
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: had a little game to him as well. But I

277
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: gotta ask this question before we let you get up

278
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: out of there. Man. So the guy at corner right now,

279
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: Trey Von Diggs. I mean, he's playing some of the

280
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: best ball that I've seen in a long time out

281
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 1: of a corner. To you, what makes him so special

282
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: at that corner on the outside, because not a lot

283
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 1: of guys can do what he's doing so far. I

284
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: think Number one, if he gets a great break on

285
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: the ball, it's not just a PBu it's a pick.

286
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 1: So go ahead and throw the ball near him. If

287
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: he gets anything close to a great break, it's gonna

288
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: be it's gonna be an interception. He's got unbelievable speed

289
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: to make up. To make up if he's behind. You've

290
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 1: seen him a bunch of times, whether it's on an

291
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,199
Speaker 1: over route, whether it's on a deep post. He's been

292
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: behind a couple of times. But he's got that makeup

293
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: speed to be able to go and get the ball,

294
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,719
Speaker 1: and then just his footwork and technique. I mean he

295
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: gets better and better. His toughness, how he plays with

296
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: you know, the tenacity of Hey, maybe he gives up

297
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: one play, but the next thing he is covering as

298
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: hard as he can. I mean we talked about this

299
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: last year. Church Washington him in training camp. I'm like,

300
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,839
Speaker 1: this guy is something special. Yeah. I mean he had

301
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 1: this one practice in training camp last year or he

302
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: had four or five picks and I'd never seen a

303
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,839
Speaker 1: rookie play like that. And I'm like, wait, he was

304
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: the second round pick. How he's as good as I've

305
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: ever seen as a rookie, and he got a little

306
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 1: banged up. I think he got a little banged up

307
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: early in the year, and I think he was playing

308
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: with a brace and still playing great, still still covering

309
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: receivers really well. I mean that you know, had a

310
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: couple of interceptions or came close, and then when he

311
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 1: got healthy. I mean, I think it was a game

312
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia, we had two picks. One way, he ran

313
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: all the way across the field, dove out of bounds

314
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: in the end zone and made this incredible play. I mean,

315
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 1: you just saw last year these incredible plays and as

316
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 1: the consistency grew, I mean, the guy has just been incredible.

317
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 1: And we talked about it last year Church, We said,

318
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: we think he's going to be one of the best,

319
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: not only corners, one of the best players in the league.

320
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: And he show he's shown it this year. He's unbelievable,

321
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 1: it would out of doubt. My last question for you,

322
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: Sean is looking at the Vikings game on Sunday night,

323
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: There's a good stat I heard on Hanging with the

324
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 1: Boys podcast right before us fifty three percent of Minnesota's

325
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: runs have been up the middle. So what are the

326
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 1: linebackers have to do? Is they face Dalvin Cook and

327
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: Alexander Madison in this football game. And Kirk Cousins, by

328
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 1: the way, only has two interceptions right now, thirteen touchdowns play.

329
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: They're they're they're doing it very well when it comes

330
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: to running and passing the ball. But what are the

331
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: linebackers needs to focus on and how did they get

332
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: this stop this run stopped? Well, they're talented on They're

333
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 1: talented on both sides of the ball. I mean, offensively,

334
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 1: they have you know, two a couple receivers that they

335
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: can go to. Kirk cousins Man is a really good

336
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: quarterback who when he is hot, he can get really hot.

337
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: And he's tough to play against. And the running game

338
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: is tough. You know, the zone Dalvin is unbelievable. He's

339
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: got great footwork. He's really hard to bring down. He's

340
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: when you could have him in a tight area and

341
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 1: his feet are so good and his hips are so strong.

342
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: You got to do everything you can to bring him down.

343
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: He runs that zone you cut back running scheme as

344
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: well as anybody. And the whole offense is hard hard

345
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: to play against. When they're rolling, um, you know, you

346
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: get the boots, you get the play action, you get

347
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 1: the run. They can do it at all levels and

348
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: they're really good at it. And then defensively they have

349
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 1: two really good linebackers, a great safety, two defensive ends

350
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: with a ton of speed and so um, you know,

351
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 1: they didn't get off to a great start, but I

352
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: still think this is a really good football team. Is

353
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: gonna be huge test. I mean this is you know,

354
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: don't sometimes you say you play a team and you know,

355
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: you look at the tape and you're like, sometimes their

356
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: record doesn't match up and it's and I believe that

357
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: with this team, this is gonna be a tough test.

423
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 1: All right, Barry Church here players lounge. Lele Collins is

424
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: not going to start right right tackle. He's not going

425
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:24,160
Speaker 1: to start uh yesterday he worked at guard and tackle.

426
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 1: He hasn't played guards his twenty sixteen. That was Dak

427
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 1: Prescott's rookie year. Head coach Mike McCarthy said, quote looked

428
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 1: like he was riding a bike in quote at the

429
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 1: guard spot. So sounds like they want and that was

430
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 1: my next thing. Where do you think Lele Collins starts

431
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: next for the Cowboys right guard? I mean I should

432
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 1: say right tackle or left guard. If we're talking about

433
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: starting on a you know, on the offensive line, snap one,

434
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: play one, and we're talking about this week or going forwards,

435
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 1: going forward whenever. I feel like he's gonna end up

436
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 1: playing at that guard position. I mean we are. He

437
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,120
Speaker 1: had the riding on the wall, you know, McCarthy talking

438
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:03,959
Speaker 1: about Yeah, it's like he was riding the bike out there.

439
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 1: He's great at that left guard position. And we know

440
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: we've given up some pressures on that interior part of

441
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 1: the offensive line between Connor Williams and be Idish, they've

442
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,360
Speaker 1: had some struggles in there. So I think what they're

443
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: gonna try to do is they're gonna try to put

444
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: them put their best five out there. And I feel

445
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 1: like they believe that if with the position flex that

446
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 1: lay all Collins has, he can move in there into

447
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 1: that guard and he could be an upgrade from mcconnor Williams.

448
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,360
Speaker 1: And you know that's no slight towards you know him

449
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: or anything like that. But still has been playing pretty

450
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:32,880
Speaker 1: well at that right tackle spot. I mean, he has

451
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 1: that momentum going on. And I'm not so entirely sure

452
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 1: this isn't a this is a slap on your wrist

453
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 1: because we're mad at you on how you you know,

454
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 1: how you got into the whole situation of five games suspending.

455
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: So we're just gonna move you inside. If it's like that,

456
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 1: or if they're really thinking that Terrence Steele could be

457
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: their next solidified right tackle, we're gonna keep him there

458
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 1: and will move you around. But I'm not so sure

459
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 1: which direction that one's going in because I feel like,

460
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,159
Speaker 1: like we talked about the other day, I feel like

461
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 1: if Lyell's help and he's in his back, his condition,

462
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: in his back on, I feel like he is a

463
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: better player than Terren Steele when it comes to blocking

464
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: at that right tackle position. But maybe they feel till

465
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: Darren Steel is better, or they're saying, look, we didn't

466
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,199
Speaker 1: like how you handled that whole situation, and we're moving you.

467
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: You go on the left guard. Let's put it in

468
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:20,640
Speaker 1: this aspect. What if it is simply we think we've

469
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: got a better offensive line if we keep Steal in,

470
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: put Collins in, take Connor Williams out. Yeah, I think

471
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 1: that's what they're They're thinking that we have a better five,

472
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: that's our best five, knowing that you know it ain't

473
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: like this is a new thing for Collins to go

474
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 1: out there and play the guard position. Like you just mentioned,

475
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 1: he was there all of twenty sixteen. He played at

476
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: a high level, you know, relatively so. But for him,

477
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I feel some type of way. One,

478
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 1: if you're trying to get another bag. We all know

479
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: tackles get paid more than guards, so that's one thing

480
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: going into it. But I mean he worked and grinded

481
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 1: to get his way up to that right tackle spot

482
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 1: and be able to be solidified as one of the

483
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 1: better tackles in the National Ball League, and then to

484
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: have this happen where he gets bumped down into the

485
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,360
Speaker 1: guard position. I mean he would feel some type of way,

486
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 1: But he also has to feel like, you know, this

487
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 1: is my there's my responsibility. It wouldn't have happened. Self afflictable, Yeah,

488
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: it wouldn't have happened, if you know, if I didn't

489
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,360
Speaker 1: handle that situation wrong. I mean, we had never heard

490
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 1: of Terran Steel. We'd have still thought Terren Steel was

491
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: the guy from last year who struggled a lot. We

492
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: had never had another He would have never had another

493
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: opportunity to go in there and Wally Pit my guy.

494
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 1: But once again he was able to do that. He

495
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: showed great against some of the best premier defensive ends.

496
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: He played pretty well and now he's giving himself a

497
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: shot to go out there and right tackle, and Lyle

498
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: has nobody to blame but itself. When they talk best five,

499
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: that was something that we were constantly talking about last

500
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: year playing fantasy football with it. We're gonna move Martin here,

501
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: We're gonna move him to tackle, We're gonna move the

502
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: left guard. But when you talk, when you look at it,

503
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: there has been struggles and then that's tear. You're part

504
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 1: of the offensive line. So do you feel like, all right,

505
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: you know, I know we got this chemistry going with

506
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 1: these five guys right here, but we got an unbelievable

507
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,439
Speaker 1: talent who can play guard and tackle. Do we just

508
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,959
Speaker 1: plug him in at the guard and then let him

509
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 1: grow over time with this new offensive line or do

510
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 1: we keep that chemistry that they have going these past

511
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: five or six games. That's the question that they're going

512
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,879
Speaker 1: to ask, And is Connor Williams that big of a liability,

513
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,399
Speaker 1: Like I know we've given up pressures, but is he

514
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 1: that big of a liability to pull Collins back in.

515
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,119
Speaker 1: Let's put it this way, and I've seen this on

516
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 1: social media line where if you're talking who's the weakest

517
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 1: link on the offensive line right now, you could say

518
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 1: it's the center. That's where I would have gone with it.

519
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 1: But you don't have a replace the center. You don't.

520
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 1: That's that's a delimited internation. So you're going center, weakest link,

521
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 1: second weakest link, left guard, and you have a valuable

522
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 1: backup at that can come into that left guard position

523
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 1: and play where between those two you can upgrade at

524
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,360
Speaker 1: the left gulf guard position. You don't have anyone who

525
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 1: can upgrade you at the center right now, noah, So

526
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,640
Speaker 1: and at that center, I mean you can. You can

527
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 1: put these two guys beside him, and I'm sure it'll

528
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: it'll help, you know, stop the leakage a little bit,

529
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, he's still gonna have to snap

530
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: the ball and you're gonna have to block somebody. But

531
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,639
Speaker 1: if you got Layel beside you as well as a

532
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer and Zach Martin, I think that you

533
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 1: know pretty much solidifies it that you know that he

534
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 1: won't be as that much of a leak as he

535
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 1: is right now. So if you're a defensive coordinator and

536
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 1: you say, okay, look right there, here's our gap between

537
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 1: this guard and center. Let's let's go. You gotta you

538
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 1: gotta try him and les go. I mean, this is

539
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 1: his first game. He didn't play Collins I'm talking about.

540
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: He didn't play all of twenty twenty, all of twenty twenty.

541
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 1: Then he just came back in twenty twenty one, played

542
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,360
Speaker 1: this season opener and missed all I mean and suspended

543
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 1: the next five games. And we noticed that, you know,

544
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 1: the only way to get better, or at least maintain

545
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: that skill level what you got to actually play the game.

546
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: You're not just gonna come out here and just cold

547
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 1: turkey and be good. So if I was Zimmer, I'm

548
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,159
Speaker 1: going straight at those boys, right at them, see what

549
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:58,479
Speaker 1: they got. By the way, do not look at Pro

550
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 1: Football Focus, no that and try to make a justification

551
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 1: based off that. You can't do it. I've never been

552
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 1: a fan of the coaches and what they're asking for.

553
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: Every team's different. I think Pro Football Focus does a

554
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: good job that what they're trying to do with their analytics,

555
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,640
Speaker 1: and that's good stuff, but every team is different, and

556
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: how they're looking what they're looking for. It's just it's

557
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: just so it's not the be all indo because I was.

558
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 1: Some people try to put it that we'll look at

559
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: Connor Williams just rating it. Don't do that that you

560
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: can't just because that's what pro football. That's not the

561
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. Yes, and what Joe Philbin is grading in

562
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 1: what he and Mike mccarthur are looking for and wanting. Yeah,

563
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,199
Speaker 1: and obviously they feel like Williams must be, must be

564
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 1: the weak link because they're not saying anybody else when

565
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: you have to put them at left tackle or we're

566
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: trying I'm over here, and now they're talking about we're

567
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 1: trying them at guard and at right tackle. Well, if

568
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: I'm looking between the center and the guard, I would

569
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 1: think to me. And this is also just you know,

570
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 1: in conversations with Nate Newton, former three times Super Bowl

571
00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 1: champion with the Dallas Cowboys, here, your center's too light.

572
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 1: He ain't got enough bricks in his podcast, the centers

573
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: too like, but you don't have an upgrade option at

574
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 1: the center. We don't. You could have an upgrade option

575
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: at the guard, Yeah, you do, and that center position

576
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 1: it's just too valuable. It's just too valuable because they're

577
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: snapping the ball or getting they're getting the play started.

578
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: You can't have a guy just Willie niely all Man.

579
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: He's he's a great guard. Let's try him a center.

580
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,159
Speaker 1: It just doesn't work out that way. So think of

581
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: it this way. If you bring Collins in, who's bigger

582
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:33,399
Speaker 1: than than Connor Williams, and you've got so Car replace

583
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: Carnar on the left side with with with Collins on

584
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 1: the right side, you've got the all pro Zack Martin

585
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,119
Speaker 1: that allows you to help your center. But one of

586
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:46,359
Speaker 1: these two places that helps you. And so when you

587
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: talk about the whole best five concept, that's where a

588
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: pro football focus rating does not really work. Doesn't work.

589
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,200
Speaker 1: Don't look at a rating. What they're gonna be looking

590
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 1: at is how do we make ourselves better? Also, how

591
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: do we make it harder all the defense, because the

592
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 1: defense is right now, are trying to say, look, that's

593
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 1: where that's where to go, that's where to go, and

594
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 1: this is where we want to try and get. And

595
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: if I'm Zimmer, I'm still with that approach. I'm like, look, Collins,

596
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to prove to me that you can

597
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 1: beat this guy at the garden. We're gonna steady attack

598
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 1: you because I mean, like I said, he missed out

599
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: all last year five games. This year, he's gonna be

600
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 1: a little rusty out there. So I wouldn't be surprised

601
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: if they're sending Kendricks, if they're sending in Bar, if

602
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 1: they're doing some type of stunts or et stunts or

603
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: games to try to get after Collins, because that's you

604
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 1: only get better at those type of things with reps

605
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 1: and you got to see the type of stunts and

606
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 1: what the defenses are going to try to do to you.

607
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: And he hasn't had a lot of reps um in

608
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: the recent in this recent time, so they're definitely gonna

609
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 1: try them. If I was Zimmer, I go at him.

610
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: I thought the kitchen sink at him. I just think

611
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: in terms of let's say you had to play the

612
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 1: Rams again in the playoffs, I look there's Aaron and look,

613
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald's a handful for Zach Martin. So just imagine

614
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 1: if you got, you know, be honest or or Collins

615
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: out there having to handle an Aaron Donald, and that

616
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: that situation is gonna be tough. Now before everyone wants

617
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: to just ride off Carter Williams, which you should not do.

618
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 1: Um the the health of Tyrant Smith we saw just

619
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: in the last game, which wasn't Tyrants fall. It got

620
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: rolled upon. But you know there's there couldn't become a

621
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: situation where you need to have maybe Steel go left

622
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,479
Speaker 1: tackle and then put Collins at right. I mean, so

623
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 1: Williams back. I wouldn't get rid of them. Oh, I'm

624
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 1: not even saying a seventeen game season, no, right, And

625
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: and for the people who talk about trading Michael Gallup,

626
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 1: I've already said no, no, no, seventeen game season. You're

627
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 1: gonna You're right, You're gonna need guys. But I'm just

628
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 1: saying in terms of do not ride off Carnal Williams

629
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 1: because there are so many other things that can continue

630
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 1: to happen. Cowboy's gonna play eleven straight football games back

631
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 1: to back the backs and is it gonna take any

632
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: type of break either, Right, So, so I just see

633
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: this move in terms of trying to possibly improve your five.

634
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 1: It's so legitimate. But the juggling may not be done

635
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 1: last year at this time, You're you're thinking Kansas City,

636
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: not just in the Super Bowl Kansas City repeating as

637
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 1: Super Bowl champions. But by the time they got to

638
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: the first weekend in February, they had three offensive starters

639
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: going gone. And we saw what happened in that Super Bowl.

640
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: They got after Patrick Mahomes. So the Cowboys, in my opinion,

641
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: when's the last time they were this deep and across

642
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 1: the board? And we look at the offensive line? You

643
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: got you know, you got Collins coming in, you got Steel,

644
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 1: you got the last time they were this team because

645
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: when you had a John Geesick and Kevin Gogan on

646
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 1: the bench and he still got Na Seki, who you know,

647
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 1: he's now terrible, but he can provide depth in there

648
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 1: as well. So this is like, I mean, it's a

649
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: good problem to have, but like, but you're right, you

650
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 1: gotta keep everybody in there. You can't write off anybody because,

651
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 1: like you said, we got eleven games left, it's a

652
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: long season, and then you add playoffs on top of that.

653
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 1: We're gonna need it every like Wallim McCarney is every

654
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: seventy seven we need all seventy seven players. We're gonna

655
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 1: need them all to make that run. So I'm not

656
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: one of those who just thinks in terms of trading

657
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 1: way your depth. This is if this is the type

658
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 1: of team you think it can be, keep everyone around,

659
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 1: keep the depth. You've played the game long enough. Nobody

660
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: who started in August is the same way in January.

661
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 1: When the season is bad, feet starting to hurt, muscles

662
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 1: start to hurt. Of it. You start to feel all

663
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 1: types of things that you know during camp and everything

664
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: you just kind of brushed off. I'll get I'll shake

665
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: back real quick, but it's that recovery towards the end

666
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 1: of the year. It's just your body's beat up. There's

667
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: not a lot of rest. You're going at it every

668
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: single day with your teammates. Then you gotta turn around

669
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: and go one hundred percent in the game. So it's

670
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 1: a long season, eleven games left. A lot of things

671
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 1: can happen. As long as you have a as long

672
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 1: as you're as deep as this team is, you should

673
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 1: be successful. But like you said, you're gonna need everybody

674
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:45,959
Speaker 1: out there to make the run that we think we're

675
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: gonna be able to make. Okay, I'm out tomorrow. Yeah,

729
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: watching your techniques. I'm like, Hi, this is when he

730

Speaker 1: usually takes breaks. Hi, let me see what I can do.

731

Speaker 1: Ye space it out a little bit, is okay? So

732
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:03,879
Speaker 1: since I'm out tomorrow, let me go ahead and give

733
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: you my prediction. Let me know, Cowboys win thirty six

734
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,120
Speaker 1: thirty three. I think we see a lot of points

735
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,319
Speaker 1: being scored here. This is Greg the Leg time, Greg

736
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: the Leg coming through like Tampa Bay. But he's gonna

737
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: come through this time, like saying like the Charger game

738
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 1: out in lost Angere we go, there we go. You're

739
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 1: gonna need Greg the Leg to do his thing one

740
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 1: more time here. I just believe that this is in

741
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,879
Speaker 1: a lot of ways these teams mirror each other. They

742
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 1: do where they've got some high powered offenses, without a doubt,

743
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,759
Speaker 1: the running games are really good. Cowboys number two in

744
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:40,359
Speaker 1: the NFL, Vikings number eight. So I'm looking at this

745
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 1: and I'm just saying, Okay, this is going to come

746
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 1: down to me to two things. One turnovers game put

747
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 1: it right there, turnovers where the Cowboys have to win this.

748
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,839
Speaker 1: And then number two, the self inflicted wounds. The penalties

749
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:56,919
Speaker 1: can't be like, can't be like the Pagriots. We won't

750
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 1: win if it's like the Pagriots. I'll tell you that, right,

751
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 1: And I go back in the Vikings ended up losing

752
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 1: a game they should have won against the Bengals. Yeah,

753
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 1: they should have been awesome. On the last second field goal, right, Oh,

754
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 1: he Cook fumbled and then they and that's what happened.

755
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 1: So the Arizona game, you know, they didn't play sound football.

756
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,359
Speaker 1: They didn't too many self inflicted moves here. So Minnesota

757
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 1: will shoot themselves. They will Kirk Cousins. We've we've known,

758
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 1: we've known Kirk Cousins to shooter sud but this they

759
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 1: not be the same Kirk Cousins we've used to play.

760
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 1: It hasn't been him. Yeah, that's the same. Yeah. So

761
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 1: this is why I say I think it'll be a

762
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: high scoring game. But this is going to put the Cowboys.

763
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:38,800
Speaker 1: You got to figure out how to win the turnover battle.

764
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 1: Will Digs get another turnover again? Will there be another pick?

765
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know if he's on if he'll

766
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 1: get some opportunities because if he's on Jefferson, they're gonna

767
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: throw him the ball, so he'll get some opportunities. But this, this,

768
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:51,800
Speaker 1: this game scares me a little bit. Well see, and

769
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 1: this is an interesting thing. And this is why, this

770
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 1: is what I do enjoy about playing fantasy football is

771
00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: when you've got a receiver I have Jefferson, You're constantly

772
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: looking at the box score. And one thing we noticed

773
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:08,239
Speaker 1: Jefferson's so good feeling gets himself a lot. You're a ten.

774
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 1: You know he's had several days we getting hearing at

775
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: seven eight, ten catches a game because teams have decided,

776
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,640
Speaker 1: you know, we're not gonna go over here at Jefferson. Well,

777
00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: just and boom, next thing, you know, Kirk and say,

778
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: all right, feelings, he's ready. He's the guy. He's the

779
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:21,760
Speaker 1: guy right now. And it is. This offense is scary.

780
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 1: It's like you said, it's very similar to our offense

781
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: because it's the pick your poison type because they've got

782
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 1: so many options out there, healthy options. I mean, you

783
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 1: got these both of these receivers on the outside, somebody's

784
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:33,800
Speaker 1: gonna get doubled and another one is gonna have to

785
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: fend for themselves. And then you got that man in

786
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 1: the backfield, Dalvin Cook, who these last two seasons, I

787
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 1: think he's forced the most mistackles out of any running

788
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 1: back out there. He does it between the tackles, he

789
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,280
Speaker 1: can do it outside the tackles. And that's the scary

790
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 1: part to me is that's what we kind of showed

791
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 1: a chink last week or that last week against the

792
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: Patriots running up the gut was they were they were

793
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 1: having success with that, and this is a different type

794
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,680
Speaker 1: of back than Harris. Fifty three percent of the Minnesota's

795
00:37:56,719 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: runs are up the middle. But you talk Cook as

796
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: you should, but they've got Madison the same way. There's

797
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 1: a Tony Pollard. Yeah, so there's no breath there's no breather.

798
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: It's not like you can go out there at heights.

799
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 1: Cook's out of there. We can either do this or that. No,

800
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,840
Speaker 1: because Madison's you know, he's just as effective as Cooked.

801
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:14,880
Speaker 1: He runs just as strong and just as hard, and

802
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: I could wear it down the defense similar to what

803
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 1: Pollard and Zeke Dude. I'll say this right now, I

804
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 1: would not be surprised if Alexander Madison is a starting

805
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: running back for someone in two years. Yeah, after he

806
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: gets out of his rookie deal. Man, I wouldn't be surprised.

807
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,439
Speaker 1: I mean, there's there's a guy that you could pay

808
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: a nice salary to and give turn around and give

809
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,800
Speaker 1: this guy the ball twenty times a game. He's filled

810
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: in for Cook, And I said, go back to the

811
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 1: whole fantasy football thing. I've had to fill in Madison

812
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 1: for Cooking, and Madison has gone out there and been

813
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 1: able to be productive just like Dalvin Cook. So this

814
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,479
Speaker 1: Cowboys defense is going to have have their hands full

815
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,600
Speaker 1: in this football game and trying to run the football

816
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 1: down here covering their wide receivers. But I do believe

817
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,960
Speaker 1: the Cowboys have a better football team. Yeah, without a die.

818
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 1: I think. So if you look at Minnesota and you

819
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: see three and three, I would tell you right now

820
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,320
Speaker 1: you're not looking at the proper context going there and

821
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,080
Speaker 1: look at some of the games that they play. They've

822
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,439
Speaker 1: lost to a Cleveland, You've lost to the Bengals, which

823
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 1: was and then Zone which was a close one as well.

824
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: So these are you know, so you're talking about good

825
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 1: football teams that they've lost barely too. Like it ain't

826
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: like you said, it ain't like getting blown out and

827
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:19,719
Speaker 1: they're just Kirk Cousins just turned the ball over all

828
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,320
Speaker 1: over the places. Because that's what we've seen before the

829
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,399
Speaker 1: Cowboys got his number. They've been seven and two since

830
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,279
Speaker 1: they've played against Kirk Cousins. But it's like I said,

831
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,800
Speaker 1: this ain't the same one. This guy isn't just throwing turnovers.

832
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 1: So he's not just willy nilly with the ball in

833
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 1: the pocket. He's taking care of the pocket or taking

834
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 1: care of the ball and he's distributing the football well

835
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 1: out there, especially when they get to the red zone.

836
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 1: I think they're one of the higher scoring teams when

837
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:40,239
Speaker 1: they get to the red zone. So this is gonna

838
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 1: be a tough contest for this Dallas Cowboys football team,

839
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: especially defensively. It may be their toughest contest of the

840
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 1: year so far. I mean, they haven't played KC, they

841
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,720
Speaker 1: haven't played Arizona yet, but these guys present some problems.

842
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,239
Speaker 1: It's a picker poison type offense, so they're gonna have

843
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 1: to be on their ps and questro off this entire game.

844
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 1: Games against Minnesota are always tricky. Last time they played

845
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: like season, the Cowboys ended up winning. Um, I was

846
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 1: Wilson's coming out party. It was, it was, it was.

847
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,440
Speaker 1: It was a thirty one, twenty eight win. And then um,

848
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: the last time they played down at Jerry World, Minnesota

849
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 1: ended up winning. So these two teams through the years,

850
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,239
Speaker 1: you know, between Dak Prescott and Kirk Cousins, they have

851
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 1: they founded battle to battle each other. One thing that

852
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 1: if your cowboy face should be concerned with, yesterday's practice

853
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 1: wasn't good. Dalt Schultz came out and said they weren't

854
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: where they needed to be. Randy Gregory said so as well.

855
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 1: So when we're done here, Um, the players are gonna

856
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,719
Speaker 1: meet the media at one thirty, so bottom of the hour.

857
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go out there and and try and

858
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,360
Speaker 1: see exactly what today's practice was. I think that was

859
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 1: just coming out of a funk of the bye week.

860
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 1: Just you know, we'll see that at the time. Those

861
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 1: are the questions I'm definitely gonna ask. So, um, you

862
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: got Schultz's quote here, Chris Bean so, Um, yeah, I

863
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 1: got it, you want it? Yeah, Yeah, definitely felt like

864
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 1: going through the motions just a little bit um. You know,

865
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 1: obviously in and out of the huddle, just wasn't as

866
00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:01,319
Speaker 1: crispy usually is. Um, just little things like that after

867
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 1: a bye week, I think guys are kind of knocking

868
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,759
Speaker 1: the rough the rust off a little bit. Um. At

869
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 1: this point in the season, we just can't really afford

870
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 1: to have a day like that. Um. So obviously I

871
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: think guys are gonna come out and attack tomorrow the

872
00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 1: right way. So She'll said yesterday, Yeah, I think that

873
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: that's definitely coached talk. You know, after after practice, coaches

874
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 1: probably got after him a little bit saying, you know,

875
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: we gotta pick our you know what up. You know,

876
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 1: you know we can't rest on our laurels. I know

877
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:24,640
Speaker 1: you guys are come out of a bye week, so

878
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:27,400
Speaker 1: I think it's definitely um, you know, coaches trying to

879
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 1: motivate them to get back into the momentum that they

880
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 1: were in before they had this bye week, just to

881
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: snap them out of it. So I'm interested to see

882
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:35,720
Speaker 1: how they how they you know, talk after this practice

883
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 1: coming out. I think this is their full padded practice,

884
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 1: I want to say on Thursdays, so we'll still get

885
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 1: a better understanding how they are coming out of this practice. Okay,

886
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: here's Randy Gregory, Cowboys defensive end on yesterday's practice. Starts today,

887
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 1: you know, come out here with good energy. Um. I

888
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 1: think we did at parts. Um As a whole, I don't.

889
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,799
Speaker 1: I don't think we had the kind of day we

890
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,120
Speaker 1: wanted to UM, But you know, it gives us a

891
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 1: chance to come back and have a better day, keep

892
00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 1: the energy, lock in on some of our mistakes, and

893
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 1: what is he good to go come game day? You know,

894
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:07,399
Speaker 1: I think they're both we're both off a bye week,

895
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 1: so I think that's kind of a plus that they're

896
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 1: off one too, but um, yeah, we got worry about ourselves.

897
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 1: Come back better tomorrow and the next day and the

898
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 1: next and then you know, go out there and have

899
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: a good game. Right, So that's what I want to

900
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 1: find out here, the bottom of the hours. How was

901
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,360
Speaker 1: the Thursday practice and where guys were One of the

902
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 1: things that I do like, there's self a recognition they're

903
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 1: not licking, just that wasn't our best efforts. Yeah, I

904
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,279
Speaker 1: think that's pretty pretty cool. And keeping each other accountable

905
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 1: and that's huge when you're in the locker room. If

906
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 1: you can keep each other accountable, I mean, nobody thinks

907
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:38,919
Speaker 1: they're better than the team, and that's a huge thing.

908
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 1: The real question I got is, you know how it

909
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: was four doing out there? You know he did he

910
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: practice yesterday, so good question. He was rolling out today

911
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 1: a little bit and throwing with these so four talks,

912
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 1: so today's throwing out so so Dak Prescott is going

913
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 1: to talk. And that's another reason why I'm going to

914
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,359
Speaker 1: go out there and listen to what he has to say.

915
00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 1: Is they get ready to face the Minnesota Vikings and oh,

916
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 1: by the way, it's tough building, man, it is. They're

917
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 1: going up to Minnesota, right, so it gets loud. It's

918
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,760
Speaker 1: like a mini Jerry World up there. It gets loud

919
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:09,640
Speaker 1: in there. I mean I played there multiple times, so

920
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 1: it gets loud. It's gonna be a tough contest. So

921
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 1: that's another reason why you really want to make sure

922
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 1: that you don't allow them in the game. Yeah, you

923
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 1: can't give them momentum. But at the same time, it

924
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,759
Speaker 1: couldn't be in the game because they've got right, they've

925
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,239
Speaker 1: got a good team, they've got a good offense. So

926
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 1: I'm very eager to see exactly how the Cowboys play

927
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 1: this this Vikings team. And as I said, the three

928
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 1: and three record is not the context that you could

929
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 1: just really look at here judge this team off of it.

930
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 1: And I even go back to New England and people

931
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 1: were just, oh, New England hadn't won a home game

932
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 1: at all. You know, they made it tough. This is

933
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 1: the National Football League, folks, they get paid too, not

934
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 1: college football where you just go rolling here and throw

935
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:47,600
Speaker 1: And it looked like it last week because so many

936
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,759
Speaker 1: blowouts last week. It was rough last week. Mike McCarthy's record,

937
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 1: by the way off bye weeks, it's pretty outstanding. So

938
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 1: Mike's really good at having his teams ready to go,

939
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:59,439
Speaker 1: ready to play off bye weeks. It's it's Andy Reids

940
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 1: right now. I think he's got the best record in

941
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:02,239
Speaker 1: the league, but I think Mike's got one of the

942
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 1: top five when it comes to what his team's right

943
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 1: so fight week. So far, Mike's been doing a great

944
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:09,400
Speaker 1: job of getting his team motivated. They're saying all the

945
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 1: right things. I mean, they're not they're not going too

946
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 1: much into stuff. When that Philadelphia coach came in with

947
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: the beat Dallas shirt, all you heard, all you heard

948
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 1: it now, all you heard from the Cowboys was we're

949
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,320
Speaker 1: not worried about that, worried about what do you have

950
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 1: to say? Oh, I know, Nick wasn't talking talking. Nick Sirian.

951
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 1: He got out there and said, you know, nobody wants

952
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 1: to win more than we do right now. But it's

953
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 1: like it's like a flower right now and the roots

954
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: underneath and they're growing and you're not acting seeing that

955
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 1: they're growing. But you gotta water it and fertilizing every day.

956
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 1: And that's what we're all trying to do. Are you

957
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:44,880
Speaker 1: watering and fertilizing? That's her guys. You know if they

958
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 1: do it, and it was just it was they had

959
00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:48,400
Speaker 1: to be killing them in Philly radio. They had to.

960
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:52,320
Speaker 1: They just go to Twitter. I gotta check it out

961
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 1: to see this guy talking about flowers and fertilizing in

962
00:44:56,600 --> 00:45:00,080
Speaker 1: the talk. And then of course somebody was like, you

963
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:04,440
Speaker 1: can't fertilize every day, and then Scott's the fertilized This

964
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 1: is true, you cannot fertilize every day. Oh yeah, I

965
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 1: mean this. You gotta be better than that. He has

966
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:14,439
Speaker 1: to be better than that. But at the same time,

967
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 1: this is exactly what Jeff Lurie, the owner, and how

968
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,520
Speaker 1: he rose him the GM get because you wanted a puppet. Yeah,

969
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 1: you wanted somebody, right, somebody you can control and do

970
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 1: what you want to do. And Philly fan is absolutely

971
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 1: apoplectic of what they're seeing from their head coach. It's goofy,

972
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 1: it's collegiate. It's just not what they want to see.

973
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,319
Speaker 1: That he's not inspired any confidence at all. And look

974
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,440
Speaker 1: at their team. They look I mean, they look like

975
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,840
Speaker 1: they're they're outclassed in every single game they go against.

976
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 1: It just doesn't look even look right. You hired a

977
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 1: guy who didn't call plays. That was a mistake. Right there,

978
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,280
Speaker 1: and he's calling the plays now though, right, yeah, yeah,

979
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 1: when Oh, by the way, you could have hired a

980
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:54,719
Speaker 1: guy here who called the plays. They interviewed you see

981
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 1: what he's doing out here. I mean, think about what

982
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:58,239
Speaker 1: they could have had. You could have had Kellen Moore,

983
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 1: you kind of Eric being I mean, but the Goals

984
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 1: wanted somebody they could control. So Nick Si Rannie's a

985
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,480
Speaker 1: guy they can control exactly what they're getting right now.

986
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 1: But oh oh well, as Bill Parcells said, just trying

987
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:08,359
Speaker 1: to keep my own house and Fernie, I'm just here.
