I turned 70 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: it off. I'm watching the game. I turned it off 71 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: after the first half, like Billy mc craig. Mc craige 72 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: was hitting on point. Yeah, Arizona not ready for primetime 73 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: at all, not ready for the playoffs, and the Cowboys 74 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: face the forty nine styles make fights. The forty nine 75 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: ers style was not something the Cowboys who could play with. 76 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: They ended up losing, and man, so you think we 77 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: would have had a better chance still after watching how 78 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 1: we performed on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, who we 79 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: had played Preva two weeks previously, and put up essentially 80 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: the same type of offensive performance. You think so, I 81 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: think so. I think so, I do I do? I 82 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: think so. That's just me and it's all for not 83 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: because the Cowboys ended up losing, losing his football game here. So, Nate, 84 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: you and I haven't talked it. You know you haven't 85 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: talked to Danny and I. So give us your initial 86 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: thoughts on this team losing this type of game at 87 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 1: home three point favorite. So much going your way on 88 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: a twelve and five season and to have it ended. 89 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: You know, I just knew Danny. I'm not excluding you, 90 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: but Danny, you could not have not told me as 91 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 1: a player, an ex player. That's why I'm going at 92 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 1: him like listen that I that my defense cannot get 93 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 1: up for one game and be physical and out hit 94 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: a team whose one dimensional Who told me all I'm 95 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: gonna do is run the ball I'm only gonna throw 96 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: out of necessity. You couldn't have told me that. We 97 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: couldn't have did that for one game. And not only 98 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: did we hand it to him, we said, hey, y'all, 99 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: flip of a coin. We ain't going out there first. 100 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: We send in our defense out there. You let the 101 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: bully do what it do best. Early in the game 102 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: and gave up seven points. What do you think the 103 00:05:55,200 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: players was thinking? Now, Hi, game over, bro, game was over. 104 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: I told him stand back, and I told her, I 105 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: said game over. So you gave him the game, So 106 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: so you But you think that that bled over into 107 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: the offensive mindset as well. That the thing is when 108 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 1: you got Bolsa and you got armed Stead and you 109 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: got Warner coming down hill now because they know your 110 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, or we'll do a we'll do a taken 111 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: run there. We're not gonna stay with this now they're 112 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: coming down hill. I've watched the film because I am 113 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: critical of myself, not to be critical on these players, 114 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 1: but when you see starting with Bosa on my boy 115 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: Collins and he fighting for his life, not to protect 116 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: that but to protect himself. And when you see fifty two, 117 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: the dude ran over him so bad to he grad 118 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 1: a dude to keep the dude from trampling him. That 119 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: was not nice. That was not when I saw that 120 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: right there to matter that, I say, coach, you got 121 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: to run the ball just to get these guys mindset 122 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: going in a different way because now we're backing up 123 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: and we're getting beat. Now you got to go forward. 124 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: Say give them some momentum, coach call, They give them 125 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: no momentum. So so to your point though, because you 126 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: started talking about the defense, and it was it was 127 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: a rough start, especially the part of being physical. But 128 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: then you have an offense who's watching this happen to 129 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: your defense, right, And it's the same thing you say 130 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: about helping your offensive line out. When you don't come 131 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: out and throw the ball three times, you have to 132 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: put a drive together so your defense can have some 133 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: time to figure out what they need to do. Instead, 134 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: you continue to put them out there back to back 135 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: because you are not able to establish the run and 136 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: play balanced football. Right, so you can say, hey, man, 137 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: we've been are you're leaning on the defense to get 138 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: four turnovers here? For four turnovers there? All right, when 139 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: it's your turn to help out the defense, you got 140 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: to show up. Yeah. Now. And I asked this question, 141 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: were we down more than ten points at any time 142 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: in the first half? Well, I'm asking the question. Thirteen 143 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: nothing in the first half. We get a field goal, right, 144 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: so now it's we're only down by ten. We're only 145 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: down by ten. You're at home and for the most part, 146 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: you have the crowd you can start running the ball 147 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: here and there, then your quarterback and then telling your 148 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:41,599 Speaker 1: quarterback one to take off, one to take off, or 149 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: that what do they call it? Option pass? Where you look? 150 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: Look what happened? Man? What happened? You're only down by 151 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 1: ten points? You get the ball? You okay, maybe your 152 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: game playing work. You come out, you get the ball first. 153 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: Better Still, we're gonna block. We're gonna rough the problem. 154 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: We're gonna get you another shot. Nah run so nah 155 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 1: so listening to you, gentlemen, both right here on the 156 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: players brought to you by Hotels dot Com. You weren't 157 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: happy with the play calling from the play caller Kellen Moore. 158 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: I can't be man, because I gotta feel for Lyo. 159 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: I gotta feel for for my center. I gotta feel 160 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: for my left guard, and I gotta feel for Tyrone. 161 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: He played injured all year. He came back trying to 162 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: play injured. It don't fall off that quick. Now, maybe 163 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,679 Speaker 1: next year he'll be bad, but you don't fall off 164 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: from having a good year and all of a sudden 165 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: you just come back and get slammed by a guy 166 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: you don't even know. No, you've played, you tried to 167 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 1: play through this injury. Then it caught up with you. 168 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: But your offensive coordinator did not give you all your 169 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: Your offensive line coach did not stand up on the 170 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: bench or threatened to go up there and say, man, 171 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: we need to do something different because I gotta get 172 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: my guys going forward. These guys stayed on their heels 173 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: the whole I mean literally on their heels the whole game, 174 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, with with with two 175 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: minutes or something else. Now you're trying to roll forward. 176 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 1: That's hard to do. That's I've been in there before 177 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: the fourth member the forty nine ers game went up there, 178 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: they at us a live because we was going backwards 179 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: the whole while the second one. Yeah, well, this is 180 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: what happens when you go out there in Week one 181 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: and you decide not to run the ball because you 182 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: believe that your offensive line is going to be outmatched 183 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive line. And you set 184 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: that president of like, oh, you know, we actually played 185 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: a great game against Tampa. No we didn't. You went 186 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: out there and you let them turn you into a 187 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 1: one dimensional team, and then in your mind you said, 188 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: when I throw the ball out there, it's on a 189 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 1: jailbreak screen. That's an extension of the run. That ain't 190 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: an extension of the run. Like for our offense, I 191 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: do not want to hear an extension of the run 192 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: again if you're not going to run the ball. And 193 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 1: that started in week one, and then we had like 194 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: maybe two games in between where it was like, okay, 195 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: Parlor and Zeke actually had good games, but that wasn't 196 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: that weren't games where we said we came out and 197 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: said that this this is what we're gonna do. We're 198 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: gonna go our head bullet these guys and established a run. 199 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: It was it was kind of just based off the 200 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: play call, like it's working, so let's let's go ahead 201 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: and do it. And then you get to the last 202 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: game of the season and you look in the same 203 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: way you look at in the first game, and you're 204 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: not able to run the ball, even when you realize 205 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: that this defensive line is giving you trouble. You know, 206 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 1: you know, the guys on my show said they in 207 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: the Access a week ago, they at the season, end 208 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: of the day and the Cowboys lose that first playoff game, 209 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 1: would you be okay? I said, yeah, I'll be okay. 210 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: They say why, I say, because we have been a 211 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: good team all year. They have given the fans a 212 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: good show. Because I even though you hear me say 213 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: every year, I'm going seventeen and old, used to be 214 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: sixteen and old. But I always try to be very 215 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 1: objective and tell the truth during the week before I 216 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: set out on on Friday. You cannot, I repeat, you 217 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: can tell truth, man on the microphone. Might as well 218 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 1: tell the truth. I'm no, that's what that's what that is, 219 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 1: what that is why we do the show. That's why 220 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: it's the play. This is the player's laue. You're a 221 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: players to play. This is where you need to tell 222 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: the truth. Now, I'm telling you know what, man, You 223 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: know we can't do it like this. We just can't 224 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: do it like this. You you you we had we 225 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: had too much talent, man, And I know they had 226 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: Nick Bosa. I know they had didn't in the second half, 227 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 1: and I know you have Warner. There was a there 228 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: was a beast. But you cannot let three guys dictate 229 00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: the game. You just you just you know what happened 230 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,439 Speaker 1: when we ran the ball. We talked about this yesterday. 231 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: When we ran the ball, you came out what's the drive? 232 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 1: We had six runs, we scored touchdown, We're running the ball, 233 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: we're moving at the OFFICI line. Looks like they're getting 234 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: in the groove. Like, Man, I'm not on my heels 235 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 1: at this point. Now, I'm getting to establish my strength 236 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 1: and show these guys a little payback for what they've 237 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: been doing to us in the past. Right, and you 238 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: get six runs I'm talking about you moved down the 239 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: field quick, easy, smooth, and you only end up with 240 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: Zeke having twelve total. You had six rounds on one drive. 241 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: Let me walk you through that drive. Okay, okay, okay. 242 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: First and ten at the Dallas thirty three, Zekiel Elliott 243 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: five yards second and five of the dollars thirty eight 244 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 1: Zekiel Elliott five yards first and ten the Dallas forty three, 245 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 1: Tony Pollard eight yards second and two forty nine yard line, 246 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: Cede Lamb five yards first and ten. San Francisco forty four, 247 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: Tony Paul one yard second and nine. San Francisco forty three. 248 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott short left passed to Cedric Wilson eighteen yards 249 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 1: first and ten forty nine is twenty five Tony Pollard 250 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 1: five yards second to five nine twenty Tony Pollard no game, 251 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: third and five, San Francisco twenty, Mary Cooper twenty yard pass. 252 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: So the drive was nine plays, sixty seven yards four 253 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: twenty seven and you had six runs. And I can 254 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: guarantee the next drive didn't sound like that. Let me 255 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: ask let me ask you guys this man, how do 256 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: you rate a Maari Cooper? I made it is can 257 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: he go to another team and be another team's number one? 258 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: Or he just glorified two? I mean, really, man, give 259 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: me what you think about Amari Cooper. You first, I'll 260 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: start it. You have a number one in cd Land 261 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: got in the ball. Mark Cooper is a one, But 262 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: I don't feel that the play caller utilizes him in 263 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: such fashion. If he was in Arizona, Cliff Kingsbury would 264 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: use him in the way he uses DeAndre Hopkins. If 265 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: he was in Green Bay, Aaron Rodgers would get in 266 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: the ball. Cooper Cup, Okay, I think if you talk 267 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: about this talent as a receiver, I think Maria Cooper 268 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 1: is more talented than Cooper Cup. But Matthew Stafford, Show 269 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: McVay get Cooper Cup football. You are dealing with a player, 270 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: in my opinion, who's underutilized. This is the same guy 271 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: when the Cowboys three to five they make the trade 272 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: for him. He is the difference maker and then making 273 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: the playoffs and Jason Garrett being able to save his 274 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: job because they got a playmaker there. But if I 275 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: don't get my playmaker the ball, you get what you're getting. 276 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: In my opinion, yeah, I think him the same way 277 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: as I think of Zeke, same way I think of 278 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: CD Lamb. The offensive coordinator has to find a way 279 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: to get these guys the ball. Specifically, when you watch 280 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: a San Francisco forty nine a team, they are going 281 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: to get Deebo Samue the ball. They're gonna get I 282 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: used the ball they have. They have certain plays drawn 283 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: up for these guys where there's no other option. The 284 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: ball is gonna be in this dude's hand and we're 285 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: gonna see what he can do with it. When it 286 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: comes to our offense, it's exs and os and it's hey, 287 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: if you look this way, this dude should be open 288 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: based off the coverage and instead of it being hey man, 289 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: it's man on man at this point, all right, I'm 290 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: lining up in three by one, putting four strong. Amari 291 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: Cooper is gonna be on the backside man the man, 292 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: and we're gonna call whatever route he likes the best, 293 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: and we're gonna throw that route, and we lose. We 294 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: lost it, but we're gonna continue to do this. He's 295 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 1: gonna get this option ten to eleven times per game 296 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: because we believe that he is the best route runner 297 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 1: in the league. Is set around the league, right, not 298 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: just the Cowboys bias. Around the league. People are saying 299 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: that Mary's Cooper route running is second to none, and 300 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: we're not utilizing that at all. So that's why I 301 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: got quiet before, because I'm saying to myself, you have 302 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: let a dude that can set coverage stand out there 303 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 1: and they don't have to. They don't have to respect 304 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 1: him because you don't respect now, just just pointing this out, 305 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 1: just just in fairness. Cooper had ten targets in the game. 306 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: Ten targets. He had six catches. Win in the first series. 307 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: I just got started the second third series. And what 308 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: about the last player of the game who you threw 309 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: the ball too? And and and he was the second 310 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: with hing Centric Wilson had ten targets and five catches. 311 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb had five targets, one catch. Um Dalton Schultz 312 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: with eight targets, seven catches. Here, when I'm looking at 313 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 1: who are the playmakers for the Cowboys and how they 314 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: got into the ball, um, that to me, if I'm 315 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones, I'm not happy with Meanwhile, on the other side, uh, 316 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: the leading receiver for the forty Niners, Brandon Iu. He 317 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: had six targets for Um five catches. Deebo Samuel had 318 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: three targets. And keep in mind they ain't throw the 319 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 1: ball back. Yeah, they only threw the ball twenty five times. 320 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: But Deebo did have twenty six yard touchdown run coming 321 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 1: out of the backfield. Yeah. Yeah, he had ten rushes 322 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: after the turnover, after turnover in your own territory, you know, 323 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: change the position, get you like that. I'm not taking 324 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: them away from the defense, but you at this point, 325 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: you have giving the ball over your own territory and 326 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 1: your defense. As much as they're getting bullied, they're giving 327 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: up field goals. Yeah, you know what I'm saying.

Now here's my question to you. Nate and 406 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: I go back to our conversations to training camp about 407 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: the offensive line. You felt fifty two Connor Williams too light, 408 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: You thought the center too small? Remind I mean and 409 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: for me, I keep going back to Clay Shrider, keep 410 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 1: thinking about Clay's nice guy, try hard guys. But they 411 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: tried to recreate Stepnoski. There's only one step. There's only 412 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: one step. You got Greedy there, he was not him. 413 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: You got tyres Smith and aging left tackle here who 414 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: does not play sixteen or seventeen games per year. What 415 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 1: do you do with your offensive line in twenty twenty two, 416 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: Nate knew you start building? You have to if this 417 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 1: game showed you that, And I'm telling you the offensive 418 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: line coach, along with whoever will McClay signed him, they 419 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: should I don't know if they fly, drive or have regions, 420 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: but who was over offensive line? They should just be 421 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: driving to each college, spending the night in the truck 422 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,679 Speaker 1: out of the hotel, breaking down film and finding us 423 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 1: some guys from starting from the third round, fourth round, 424 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,439 Speaker 1: fifth round. Find you some some big uglies that's strong 425 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:50,199 Speaker 1: and got decent feet, and can think that's what you 426 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: need until you can find that, Oh that's that guy 427 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 1: in the second round. Oh oh that's that guy in 428 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: the third round. We cannot go out and get first 429 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,439 Speaker 1: round for you know, second right, you you wasteing picks. 430 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: It's a lot of dogs out there. You just have 431 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: to go find him, you know. And you have to 432 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 1: insert them. You have to plan them. You can't wait. 433 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 1: You have to plan them. It's some guys out there. 434 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: But does it matter because we've been on the offensive coordinator? 435 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 1: But does it do you based off what type of 436 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: offense that you're running? Right? Do you need like to 437 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: go to the big twelve or find like a passing 438 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 1: league because you figured we're not gonna run the ball? 439 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: Or do does it? Does it based off we're not 440 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 1: gonna win? We got this offensive coordinator care is going 441 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:32,959 Speaker 1: to lean on the run. So let's go find out 442 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: that we're not gonna win. If what if we get 443 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: to if we if we continue to throw the ball, 444 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: we if we do this, we're not gonna win. Dak 445 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 1: is a all around quarterback. He throws well enough. When 446 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:54,719 Speaker 1: things are play action passed, he's rolling out, he's scrambling 447 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 1: and making plays. That's Dak. And I promise you I 448 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 1: said that when he was a root. That's what I 449 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 1: liked the rookie Dak did all of these things. I'm 450 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:08,719 Speaker 1: talking about rolling out, making plays, feeling what's happening around him, 451 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: and making plays, making plays when he have to, not 452 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: sitting back there saying I'm Aaron Rodgers. I'm gonna make 453 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: every throat, I'm gonna dictated from the pot. He's not 454 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: that guy, So go out, didn't get you some big 455 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: uglies with decent feet who's tough and can't be bullied, 456 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 1: and let's go. Let's go back to what this kid 457 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: was a couple of years ago. He shows you he 458 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 1: can throw the ball, but he's not the thirty five 459 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: and more pastor. Those guys they in Kansas City, then 460 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,120 Speaker 1: in Green Bay, so they in Temple. So he said, 461 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 1: we had to lead Russier, we had to lead Rusher 462 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: in the league. And it was thirty thirty, third and four. 463 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 1: He's all thirty manageables. He was a maestro at it. 464 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 1: He was a maestro. That's just what I believe. I'm 465 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 1: not saying it. Another year he won't another year or 466 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 1: two he won't grow into that. No, I'm not saying that. 467 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 1: But right now he's not there. But he don't have to. 468 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: It's the point like even like you shouldn't, you shouldn't 469 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: have to if what made you great is that type 470 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: of playing style right right, Like putting somebody in a 471 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 1: third and ten on on a consistent basis is a 472 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: recipe for disaster for your offense, for your offensive line, 473 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: who now has to worry about past past pass Russians 474 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: coming at them almost every snap. And you throw it 475 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: on first down. Now you're behind the sticks and they 476 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: pretty much assume you're gonna throw it on second and third. 477 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: So now you got three straight plays of passing. Okay, 478 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: you talked about Dak when he first got here twenty sixteen, 479 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 1: you same thing. You changed out your head coach who 480 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 1: was who believed in the run to bring in a 481 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: guy who believes in the past. And it offers a 482 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: coordinator who was a former quarterback who wants to throw. 483 00:26:54,960 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: So your philosophy changed, and this is what you're getting. 484 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: So now what gives? And literally, what what gives? You 485 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 1: paid ninety million dollars for running back and you don't 486 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,679 Speaker 1: want to run a ball anymore. And Keller was here 487 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,439 Speaker 1: when they paid that ninety million dollars running back too, 488 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: So the assumption is yeah, And then they start talking 489 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: about to do running routes and stuff. How he looks 490 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: so quick, and we should have known that it was 491 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: gonna be an issue. So there's right there. You gotta 492 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: in an issue. So Connor Williams is a free agent, 493 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: the left guard. What do you do there? You know 494 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 1: he lost the job. He got the job back and 495 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: he literally it showed up the last two games to 496 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: get not only this game but the game before with 497 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 1: the two holding penalties back again. And I told the 498 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 1: guys on my show, I say, fellas, that's going to 499 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: hurt us in the playoffs. I say, y'all, rest his ship. 500 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 1: You make him do five here and five there, and 501 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 1: that's ten. But you can't do ten here, ten there, 502 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 1: that's twenty because now you out of field goal range. 503 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 1: Now you are. Now you're getting a safety or something 504 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: happening to you. Man, I'm something. They have to do 505 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 1: something with that. You. You're gonna have to find your 506 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: bull dog? Are you moving on? Yeah? You got to? Okay, 507 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: if you if you're gonna sit here and go through 508 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: that again next year, you gotta you gotta give him 509 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 1: a chance. Connor will be better, pulling better moving around 510 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 1: like seventy one. Yeah. I want to see Ley. I 511 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 1: want to see Leo pull So so you're moving on 512 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: from from Connor Williams. It's Connor McGovern. The answer, you 513 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: gotta go out and find a dog. So you're saying that, Yeah, 514 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: now it's other people. It's other guys, and we're not allowed, 515 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: you know, to talk about other teams. It's other guys. 516 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: It's centers out there, that's backups, or that has started 517 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: in this league that will do better than what we got. 518 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: It's guards out there, but I can't Are they gonna 519 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: pay him? And that that was my next question. So 520 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: you're moving on from the left guard, what about the center? 521 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: If I can find another one, yes, I will, okay, 522 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: which which I agree, but but but I'll be slow 523 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: to move because I gotta get that guard position. Taking 524 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: care of that. That is that is that this game here, man, Wow, 525 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 1: that was nice. I mean that first Eagles game we 526 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: saw a hardgrave. Yeah, you see Vita v in the 527 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: first game when they literally at the beginning of the season, 528 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: they were attacking the left guard and center positions. And 529 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: we came here every week they talked about it on 530 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: the show, like, man, these dudes getting bullied in that position. 531 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 1: What we said, you're gonna see it on film every 532 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: week until you get there, right, yeah, and it never 533 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: got fixed. Then then we pay for it. And in 534 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: this last game, you could have one light guy. You 535 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: can't have two. No, you can never have a light 536 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 1: guy in the middle. That if you want to kill 537 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,719 Speaker 1: your tackles like we did, if you want to kill 538 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: your tackles, have a soft middle. I'm being honest one 539 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 1: thing about it. When when we had Tony Wise and 540 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: Coach Hudson halt if we in the middle play bad, 541 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: we got man. He they lit into us the whole meeting. 542 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: Look at this, Nate, look at this Mark, look at it. 543 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: Thought no, no, no, no no, because they were protecting 544 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: them hogs outside. They're getting down the money back in 545 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 1: them days only the tackles got paid. And I'm like, hold, 546 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: one day, you're killing us in the middle and you 547 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: ain't saying nothing to sea dogs outside. Well, y'all the 548 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 1: reason this bad thing happening. You cannot ever have a 549 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: soft middle ever, because your quarterback cannot. Your quarterback can 550 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: step up because he got a sense of what's happen. 551 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: He can step up and feel which way to move 552 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: right and left, but he can't keep going back back back. 553 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 1: He can't just drop back in turn to the right 554 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: of the left because something coming. Okay, you see what 555 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 1: I'm saying. But he can move up and maneuver because 556 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: he can feel it, all right, So let's wrap it 557 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: up this way. As far as the offensive line goes. 558 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 1: Carter Williams is a free agent. You let him. Got 559 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: to improve right there, and that's your first order businesses. 560 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: You want to improve your left tackle position, left guard, 561 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: I mean left guard position, and then you want to 562 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 1: go ahead and find a new center. Yes, basically, And 563 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: I said Tyler Beadi is a backup play right guy 564 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: who guard you know, guard guards, inerflex, but he should 565 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: be a backup player. And then let's take a break. 566 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: Let's talk about what do you do with Tyrant Smith 567 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: and Terence Steele?

He says, 619 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 1: gotta move on from the center, Gotta move on from 620 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 1: the left guard. Now Here is the question to you, 621 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 1: because this is a very important thing. What do you 622 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 1: do with your all decade left tackle who made the 623 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,839 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl this year, but once again does not play 624 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 1: every game. He keeps having injury, so you know every 625 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 1: year he's basically gonna miss at least four football games. 626 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 1: What do you do with tired Smith in that position? 627 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: That is where I say, if you have a first 628 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 1: round pick in the draft, it's a tackle and he 629 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,719 Speaker 1: can play left, you gotta take a shot. Thank you, Nate. 630 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: You gotta take a shot. See I love Tyrone and 631 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 1: I'm a never say nothing bad about it. He played 632 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 1: through injury this year he did. He had a gully 633 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:50,879 Speaker 1: of effort. But when you get some of the things 634 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: I saw happen to him doing this playoff game. That's 635 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 1: high level of football that he's been able to take 636 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,839 Speaker 1: care of, he wasn't able to take care of. Now 637 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,800 Speaker 1: you're really rolling the dice because, and I hate to 638 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 1: say this, he's gonna age by the months. Now he's 639 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: gonna age by because nobody has any fear. I don't 640 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: care what we have said as fans. People feared this dude, 641 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: but when they look at this film, it's not gonna 642 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 1: be any more fear. And that's part of the game. 643 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: They come in at Tyrone, love him to death and 644 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: maybe they can get another year out of him. But 645 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,400 Speaker 1: but if there's a first round lineman that falls to 646 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 1: the Cowboys and he can play left, you gotta get it. Listen. 647 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 1: This is the same This is the same thing that 648 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: I would I would have said about Shun Lee. Great player. 649 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 1: When Seun Lee is healthy, not many linebackers can play 650 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 1: the game better than him. His experience, his knowledge of 651 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 1: the game and is able to tackle in the open field, 652 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: reruns all that, but that is all negated by the 653 00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 1: fact that the injuries continue to happen nothing to say 654 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 1: anything away from him as a player, but you gotta 655 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: be available to be that type of player. And in 656 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: previous years, this year, last year, year before that, Tyron 657 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,320 Speaker 1: Smith has not played an entire season and then he 658 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 1: had to walk into this one where we thought he 659 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,839 Speaker 1: was gonna be the healthiest that he's been in ten years, 660 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 1: and then he suffers more injuries, not all his fault, 661 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 1: like it's football. That type of stuff happens. But what 662 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: you can't do is you can't depend on him to 663 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: be healthy throughout a season knowing that you're gonna have 664 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,240 Speaker 1: to have a backup ready probably for half of the season. 665 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 1: And the funny thing about it, and I wouldn't say 666 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: this if the injuries didn't show in his play. The 667 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 1: injuries showed that his play this time. And that's what's scary. 668 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 1: When you can overcome injury, you can play, you know, 669 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: like Michael Jordan. You know, Mike's Mike sick and he 670 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 1: hit forty points. You know, Tyrone was sick and he 671 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: gotta handled. Yeah, So that's that's what made me said, 672 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 1: well it's time to move on now, because he couldn't 673 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 1: handle it with the injuries and nothing away from him. 674 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: If he's a healthy Tyrant Smith, he is a top 675 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: notch left tackle in the league. Yes, but you have 676 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 1: to find a time when you can get a healthy 677 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 1: Tyrant Smith throughout the whole season. Okay, I just checked 678 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: one mock draft Cowboys at the twenty fourth overall pick. Yes, 679 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 1: they do. And there were five offensive lineman who went 680 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 1: early before twenty four. So your chances of getting a 681 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:31,720 Speaker 1: top three, maybe even top four offensive tackle left tackle 682 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 1: probably not there. It's not it's not. No, it's not so. 683 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,280 Speaker 1: And I'll ask you what I asked Danny and Barry yesterday. 684 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 1: Do you go take the top guard? Yes, you do 685 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:47,760 Speaker 1: right now. You need offensive lineman. You need offensive lineman, 686 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 1: and you need more. So I think you need the 687 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 1: interior linement because I trust me. If you get your 688 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,359 Speaker 1: tackles in your guard and your son ain't no good, 689 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 1: it's gonna it's gonna be the same. It's gonna pay 690 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:04,440 Speaker 1: the same dividends. But it's easier for us to block 691 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 1: a guy that we know on an end then trying 692 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 1: to get up in the middle of d blocks up 693 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: that don't work too much congestion. You got a running 694 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,520 Speaker 1: back up in there. You got us up in there, 695 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: big wide buttons up in there, and you got the 696 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 1: quarterback trying to step up in there. That's too much. 697 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 1: But on the end where you can keep a guy 698 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: blocked out, now you got space to move around. So 699 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,799 Speaker 1: if it's a guard in there, see that. I think 700 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 1: Alur got a center, but they say he going in 701 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: the top six, the top seven players. No, no real 702 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that people are really covering in at this point. 703 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, they're gonna move to other positions now. Just 704 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: looking at Pro Football Focus. At twenty four there Mike Draft. 705 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,760 Speaker 1: They got the Cowboys taking a corner out of Clemson. 706 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 1: That's a twenty four. At twenty five they have the 707 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 1: Bengals taking a offensive tackle six foot seven, three h 708 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: five kid named Bernard Raymond. And then if he can 709 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 1: get to the Bakers and get there, then at twenty 710 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:06,720 Speaker 1: six they have Miami taking Northern Iowa offensive tackle Trevor Penning. 711 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: And unless coach Philman say hey, you know what, I 712 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 1: can get better out of these guys all they have 713 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 1: a new offensive line coach that can get better. I 714 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 1: love coach Philman. I think he did a hell of 715 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 1: a job a year ago this year here, I don't 716 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 1: know if you stood up on the table for these 717 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 1: guys to run the ball more o Mark Columbo would 718 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:36,400 Speaker 1: get it out of I'm just throwing the name out there. Man. 719 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 1: You know, you know, well that's his Philbin's McCarthy's guys, 720 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,919 Speaker 1: Green Bay guys. So I don't think that's gonna gonna 721 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:49,360 Speaker 1: happen there. But overall, when you're talking about the draft, 722 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 1: you're saying, almost last year we talked about defense and 723 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,399 Speaker 1: that's where they went heavily. So right now, in your mind, 724 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 1: you're saying, hey, look, you gotta dress us offensive line, 725 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: so spend some picks there. But I'll talked about it, 726 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 1: but but not not. I don't think you have to go. 727 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 1: I just think I don't think you have to go 728 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 1: first round. I'm not for his linment, Okay, you know, 729 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: but I do know this right here? And why are 730 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 1: we speaking of offensive linment and blocking? I put it 731 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:20,799 Speaker 1: on the thing and I'm gonna keep saying it. I'm 732 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 1: gonna keep saying it. Please please find a blocking tight end. 733 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 1: We have to have a blocking tight end. Stop with 734 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:35,959 Speaker 1: this fat jelly roll calling it the hawk package. That hawk, 735 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: what get in the way. That's all you do. Come on, man, 736 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 1: get a blocking tight end. They grow him an hour. 737 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,800 Speaker 1: They grow him in our like cornstocks, man, like in 738 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: the brons, go get one. Come on, man, So like 739 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 1: we're gonna be running, we need to be running the ball. 740 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 1: I mean it's all over the place. Man, I've been 741 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 1: sitting him charting his stuff. It's all over the place. NEI. 742 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 1: Teams that run doing the playoffs have more success because 743 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:07,319 Speaker 1: your defense need rest. Defenses can't stop teams today. They 744 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 1: can only get them off the field, and when you 745 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 1: make a mistake, they'll make a play as we did. 746 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,800 Speaker 1: So now, when you got your defense more than thirty 747 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 1: one minutes on the field, they are tired. Because you know, 748 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 1: it's like basketball. You're shorten the lineup right now. Now, 749 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:24,719 Speaker 1: let me just okay, both both of you are advocating 750 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 1: for the run. Do you need to draft another running back? No? No, no, no, 751 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 1: you got what you need. If you got your three 752 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 1: running backs, Teach the other two how to pick up 753 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 1: pick up blitzes. Teach the others clements Tony, teach them 754 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,360 Speaker 1: how to pick up blisses. They should, Hey, fellas, the 755 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 1: rest of y'all have a nice vacation, Tony Clemens, if 756 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 1: you want to be here next year, we're gonna get 757 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:55,280 Speaker 1: on this film right now. You gotta be better blockers 758 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: so we can, especially Tony, so we can have you 759 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 1: in the game to leak out and make some plays 760 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 1: for us. Man. But we don't, Yeah, we don't. I 761 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 1: don't think we need another running back. I think with 762 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,239 Speaker 1: the if you scheme it up for us to run 763 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 1: the ball, we got guys who can make plays, as 764 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:12,240 Speaker 1: you see them on this one drive that we decided 765 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:13,879 Speaker 1: we were going to run the ball. You see a five, 766 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: you see eight, you see a team, You see it 767 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 1: till you see a five. Like we got guys who 768 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 1: can still run it. And then you got a guy 769 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 1: who put it all online for you this year and 770 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 1: played hurt. You talk about tying point hurt. Zeke went 771 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 1: out there knee busted. Yeah, so PCL you come out 772 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: and find out he had towards PC and you know, 773 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 1: making plays. And I wish you would have never said nothing. 774 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 1: You got through the season, you got yourself back on. 775 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 1: I wish you had just went on about this business, 776 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,320 Speaker 1: just going about your being to Zeke, you know, and 777 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 1: when they're poking at you that's hard, you know, like, hey, man, 778 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,759 Speaker 1: you ain't really uh yeah, you got seventeen in you 779 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: just out to get a thue, you like, let me 780 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 1: tell you something. Let me tell you something, Okay? You 781 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 1: know so I literally I felt bad for Zeke. I 782 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,920 Speaker 1: felt bad for Coop this season, just because when you 783 00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:00,719 Speaker 1: pay guys that amount of money, to expectation for that 784 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 1: guy is for them to be successful. But you have 785 00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 1: to give her an opportunity. But when you don't, people 786 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 1: still looking at them like, man, we paid you all 787 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 1: this bread, Like what you're gonna do? Do you think 788 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: Kelly Moore gets a head coaching job? I choose not 789 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: to respond to I don't. I don't even want to respond. No, 790 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 1: I think he is. I think he should be a 791 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:28,759 Speaker 1: head coach. So that next thing would be be talking 792 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 1: about soon is who should do offensive coordinator? Because Kellen 793 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:33,879 Speaker 1: Moore is gonna get a head coaching job. He fits 794 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, if it's the profile, I don't care 795 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,399 Speaker 1: what happened. Mike McCarthy needs to be calling the place 796 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,239 Speaker 1: next year like it like this has to be the 797 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 1: point where it's like McCarthy, Watt, you've been in the lab, 798 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 1: this is what you said that you have been working 799 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 1: on and studying. We want to see what that is, 800 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 1: and then there's no excuse after that. If the office 801 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:55,719 Speaker 1: come out and it sucks, then then that has to 802 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 1: come from the owner. Because I go back to when 803 00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 1: Wade Phillips was here. You say that this guy gonna 804 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:03,319 Speaker 1: get a job this year. Yes, so you you don't 805 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,840 Speaker 1: think that other owners in GEMS has been looking at film. 806 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 1: You think that they say, Okay, the players wasn't good enough, 807 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 1: and this guy is better than the players. Hecause his 808 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 1: player's gonna work even though they didn't work, and he 809 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 1: gonna get a job this year. This team went twelve 810 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 1: and five. Um, I know they had an extra game, 811 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: but set the club record in points scored.
