I would like to give 0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:12.160 a shout out, okay to shot On Himer in his 0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:12.920 entire staff. 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:15.040 Absolutely shout out to the entire staff. 0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:16.519 They're Clayton Adams. 0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:19.720 Clayton Adams and what they've done on Riley Connor Riley, 0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:22.040 what they've done with that unit to where there is 0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:25.640 no substantial drop off, there's no apparent drop off. Now 0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:27.760 you can always say our starters are going to perform 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:30.400 better because their starters, but there has not been a 0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:33.359 drop off where you're able to identify, Ah, I wish 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:36.280 we had so and so. Right, they have been productive 0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:38.920 as an offensive line unit, and because of that, the 0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:41.880 ground game has continued. Who has been the benefactor of 0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:47.160 the ground game. Javonte Williams Number one. Javonte Williams has 0:03:47.200 --> 0:03:50.760 had career numbers career, he had a career. He's had 0:03:51.000 --> 0:03:54.120 career touchdowns right ted his career touchdown yesterday. 0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:57.440 He's also had career yardage end up in a game yesterday. 0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:02.520 The I'm assuming his yards per per carry his probably 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:05.560 career at the top of his career as well, I 0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:08.440 would say so. My friend Dak Prescott top of the 0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:11.480 league in terms of passing right, his efficiency fell off 0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:12.640 a little bit yesterday, but. 0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:14.680 Overall, all right, he's still killing it. 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:19.320 George Pickens, the benefactor of offensive line, the benefactor of 0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:22.520 Dak Prescott, the benefactor of this running game. George Pickens 0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:25.359 had career numbers. Now, okay, you're talking about record number 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.160 of touchdowns and his career tied for it already through 0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:31.120 the first five games. Talk about the amount of yardage 0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:32.520 that he's getting, all right, he didn't get a bunch 0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:34.520 of yards yesterday, but just overall, he's. 0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:37.560 Got a heck of a job. So everybody seemingly is 0:04:37.600 --> 0:04:38.719 having their best. 0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:39.719 Huh. 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:42.280 It's kind of interesting how these are. 0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:44.600 Offensive saying, okay, let's talk about the defense then, I 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:46.040 would love to talk about the defense. 0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:46.440 Defense. 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:49.880 The first time the defense got any resemblance of a 0:04:49.880 --> 0:04:52.840 pass rush all year long, do you know what happened 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:54.719 when the pass rush was able to finish? 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:56.279 Secondary look pretty good? 0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:58.680 Correct, Damn secondary did their job. 0:04:59.040 --> 0:05:01.800 Damn good's It's kind of funny that you bring that 0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:06.279 up because there were some different guys on defense yesterday. Yeah, 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:11.200 Thomas played, Yes, he did well, and he played well. 0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:15.680 You had James James, James Houston. Oh, James Houston. 0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:18.360 Is that James Houston? Yeah, so those two guys, that's James, 0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:19.280 That's James Houston. 0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:22.479 Those two guys that showed up for you in the preseason, right, 0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:24.840 So people were wondering why it felt, you know, some 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:26.719 type of way about some of our practice squad guys 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:28.599 kind of getting taken. Those are guys that performed in 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:30.400 the preseason as well. These guys were on the roster 0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:32.320 and performed well in the preseason. Wine has been a 0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:36.000 contributor on special teams for years. These guys performed. Well, Ah, 0:05:36.200 --> 0:05:38.640 there's this linebacker that I've been asking speaking of j 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:39.960 Jamar James, that. 0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:42.680 Guy number fifty and how many tackles did he have? 0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:47.920 Heif team actually had more of a penalties than negated 0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:48.880 two or three other ones. 0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:50.640 But yeah, fifteen to fifteen. 0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:54.400 Hold on, get ready for the most obnoxious talking Cowboys 0:05:54.400 --> 0:05:56.320 episode of all time, because this is a big time 0:05:56.520 --> 0:05:57.720 we told you so episode. 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:00.600 Oh it's true across the I was gonna say it, 0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:02.039 but you said it.

I said 0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:35.080 about flinoid physicality? 0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:38.840 Ability to dominate the line of scrimens, press, cover right, 0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:41.680 attack at the high point, and run routes. 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:45.000 We saw all those things on the full display yesterday. 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:48.560 It's almost like it's almost like it's almost like he 0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:50.040 should have got these opportunities before. 0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:51.760 No, it's almost like he. 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:55.720 A game breaker. Oh so how many career games was that? 0:07:56.160 --> 0:08:01.040 Flinoy Uh huh? James Houston, Jamar Jay, uh huh. William Yeah, 0:08:01.160 --> 0:08:04.720 George Piggins. 0:08:03.520 --> 0:08:10.680 That's right. Show your showed right home. 0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:14.280 Just saying, just saying they were playing against other professionals. 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:15.960 I know what people are gonna say. Okay, I'm not 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:20.200 saying that our fans and our fan FANOM five, they're 0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:23.080 professional athletes, Okay, are they as good as they want 0:08:23.080 --> 0:08:25.520 to be? Absolutely freaking out nobody wants to be that. 0:08:25.640 --> 0:08:28.480 But they were who were on the schedule and that's 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:30.040 what you had to take care of for that. 0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:33.440 Okay, Okay, right here, continue talking, Yeah, go ahead. Oh 0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:36.320 that's a great that's a great sign. Continue talking. Patrick 0:08:36.400 --> 0:08:36.959 is holding up. 0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:39.760 A sign that says this does not underline it in 0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:44.240 all caps, not imply the Cowboys will win the Super Bowl, which. 0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:45.079 I completely agree with. 0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:47.360 But it's one heck of a building block. It is 0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:49.520 a building block. This is a step in the right direction. 0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:52.880 Your defense Sorry for my language for all those family 0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:55.440 users out there, has played like ass throughout. 0:08:57.000 --> 0:09:00.600 They did not. They did not play like that against 0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:03.440 the Jets. They did not play like that. They played well. 0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:05.920 The defense finishes with five sacks. 0:09:05.960 --> 0:09:08.479 They took the ball away from a team that struggles 0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:11.440 to hold on to the football. They did not play 0:09:11.520 --> 0:09:14.760 like that in this matchup, and that's a step. 0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:16.760 In the right direction. I don't care who you're playing. 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:18.439 This is a big win, not only for the Dallas Cowboys, 0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:21.960 for talking Cowboys. Genuinely, I mean that because these are 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:23.920 guys that we've talked about since training camp. These are 0:09:23.920 --> 0:09:27.720 guys that we've been championing. And then unfortunately Jack Sanborn 0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:30.280 had the concussion protocol. He was out for the rest 0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:33.600 of the game. To have Shamar James come in, and honestly, 0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:36.959 that changed the vibe of your defense. He was able 0:09:37.000 --> 0:09:38.839 to fly to the football if you read the wrong read, 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:40.240 he was able to get to a pretty quick and 0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:43.840 make tackle. One thing that you didn't see last week 0:09:43.840 --> 0:09:46.160 that you saw this week were tackles. Like we just said, 0:09:46.200 --> 0:09:50.280 Jamar James fifteen tackles. Amazing for a backup linebacker that 0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:53.840 we've said maybe he should be in the rotation earlier 0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:57.560 more than not. Anyways, to get past the I told 0:09:57.559 --> 0:10:00.040 you so stuff, one of the main things that. 0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:02.160 Get past the what I told told you so, I 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.280 told you so? We just say it all together. I 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:06.680 told you so, Okay, good, this is one of those episodes. 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:06.960 Guys. 0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:12.520 Sorry, we need we need to We've had. 0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:13.000 A lot of losing. 0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:17.440 We've had a lot of recently, guys. Yeah, yeah, we 0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:20.120 got to embrace this a lot. And for those listeners 0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:22.720 out there that know, just just give us a break 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:24.920 on this one. But guys, one thing I want to 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:27.080 shout out here, and we're talking about the defense and 0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:30.600 making plays. You know, early on in that game, first drive, 0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:33.760 I was like, okay, this is one third down conversion 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:37.839 after note, that's what this movie is about to be. Guys. 0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:40.360 Let me paint you a picture, real quick, Picasso second 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:42.240 goal at the three yard line on the first drive 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.920 of the game. The j just score here. The Cowboys 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:47.480 are down seven to zero on the first drive of 0:10:47.520 --> 0:10:50.079 the game, which has been proven to be un good 0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:52.600 for the Dallas Cowboys when they're having to play from behind. 0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:55.480 Granted it's the first drive, but it's just the implications 0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:56.840 of it, and it's just not good. 0:10:56.760 --> 0:10:59.560 For the Dallas Cowboys. Bad vibes, bad vibes. 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:03.800 So second and yeah, second and goal at the three 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:08.920 yard line. Solomon Thomas, Yeah, unblocked tackle for loss on 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:10.480 Briece Hall, a guy that you had a really hard 0:11:10.480 --> 0:11:13.920 time bringing down today or bringing down yesterday the entire day. 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:17.560 But Solomon Thomas as a former Jet getting his revenge 0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:19.120 a little bit. He was there for three years. He 0:11:19.200 --> 0:11:21.000 kind of had a mellow chip on the hold for 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:28.240 that unblocked loss. Four yard loss. That was the change 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:28.680 of pacing. 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:30.200 You might want to block that. What happened next? 0:11:30.880 --> 0:11:35.400 Oh and then who was it? But Dante Fowler got involved. 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:39.000 We've been asking Dante Fowler to refine his form. Dante 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:42.960 Folla grantity uses his head, arguable a head, hands chest 0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:43.800 doesn't matter to me. 0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:46.439 He passed breakup. 0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:48.480 Shoes. 0:11:49.600 --> 0:11:52.120 A little bit of boosy in there. Yeah, I mean 0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:52.760 Dante Fowler. 0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:54.719 He gets involved in if not for the Skycamp, maybe 0:11:54.760 --> 0:11:55.760 Kenny Clark comes down with. 0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:57.960 The interception, who knows. And then that drive to your 0:11:58.000 --> 0:12:01.560 point in in a field goal, I don't go, no touchdown. 0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:04.040 Manageable way to come back after a drive like that. 0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:08.400 Ben don't break was the certification of the Dallas Cowboys 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:09.160 defense all day long. 0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:12.199 I do have to bring up one sore spot. I'm 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:14.319 glad you will. Yeah, I don't want to be all Yeah, 0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:15.360 we got to bring us down. We got to be 0:12:15.360 --> 0:12:17.640 able to analyze well. And that's the part of it. 0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:19.400 It's this team is not going to win the Super 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:21.559 Bowl because they beat the O and fort No, no, no, no, 0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:23.640 It's plain and simple. There's there are things to. 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:27.439 Get better at. You cannot win the Super Bowl if 0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:31.160 you miss extra points. I mean, come on, Brandon, and 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.280 I thought this was the worst day. Come on, man, 0:12:33.720 --> 0:12:37.160 freaking a contribute. I can't believe you kick it out 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:39.280 of the mount and he kicked it out of Bountick. 0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:41.720 What the heck, Brandon Aubery, your worst game of your career. 0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:43.400 I'm glad it happened this day. 0:12:44.360 --> 0:12:46.400 I'm glad it happened when it was thirty to three 0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:49.120 and it didn't happen when it was what was it. 0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:52.160 Forty seven, forty four? Whatever the fire? 0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:54.920 Yeah, it's thirty seven thirty four and we needed a 0:12:54.960 --> 0:12:57.160 sixty four yard field goal to keep us from going 0:12:57.200 --> 0:13:00.239 Ohen for everyone has often yeah, a little. 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:01.840 Human, but he's still Brandon Aubrey. 0:13:01.840 --> 0:13:03.319 I want to I want to circle real quick back 0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:05.240 to something Isaiah said because I pointed it out on 0:13:05.280 --> 0:13:09.199 Twitter yesterday on X This coaching staff on the offensive 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:11.720 side of the ball. Obviously, we're giving a lot of 0:13:11.800 --> 0:13:15.840 rightful credit to Brian Schottenheimer for, you know, orchestrating the 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:20.720 league's best offense. Okay, the hiring of Clayton Adams and 0:13:20.800 --> 0:13:21.600 Connor Riley. 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:25.960 That combo pack is nasty. 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:29.600 Freaking work when you can have because Clayton Adams has 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:32.720 a big hand in coordinating the offensive schemes going into 0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:35.080 each game, so he has you know, so there, there's that. 0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:37.679 But also he has the duality of being a heralded 0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:40.640 offensive line coach out of Arizona, So you combine that 0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:42.600 with Connor Riley and what he can do as the 0:13:42.600 --> 0:13:45.560 offensive line coach heralded out of Kansas State, bring those together. 0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:49.040 Like Isaiah said, and Quentin Williams yesterday, let me just 0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:50.720 illustrate the point with Quinn Williams. 0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:52.600 Did you hear his name? No? You know why he 0:13:52.600 --> 0:13:53.840 didn't hear his name. Here's why. 0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:56.720 He only had three tackles, he had only one quarterback pressure, 0:13:56.760 --> 0:13:58.959 he had only one run stuff, and he had zero sacks. 0:13:59.000 --> 0:14:01.240 One of the things Kyp pointed out last week when 0:14:01.240 --> 0:14:03.400 we were previewing this offense versus that defense, is Quinn 0:14:03.440 --> 0:14:06.440 Williams not only is a monster at stopping the run 0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:09.240 only one run Stove, but he also is a monster 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:12.880 in the past rush zero sex not only one pressure 0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:13.839 on Dak Prescott. 0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:14.959 Let me detail this for you. 0:14:15.000 --> 0:14:19.040 Even further left to right, you had Nate Thomas, was it, 0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:24.120 O brock Hoffman and TJ. 0:14:24.280 --> 0:14:27.000 Bass, four backups. 0:14:26.640 --> 0:14:30.240 To the left of Terrence Steele, and still Dak Prescott 0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:32.400 was only sacked one time by McGregor when the game 0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:33.160 was well out of hand. 0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:37.560 That's the most impressive thing in my unbelief. Connor Riley 0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:42.680 Clayton Adams, You're you're missing cd Lamb. That's one thing. 0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:46.360 This first time, first time the Cowboys have ever won 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:48.720 a game without Ceedee Lamb catching a pass. Just by 0:14:48.760 --> 0:14:51.240 the way, since he was drafted in twenty twe that's crazy. 0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:53.400 So with all that being said, you're missing your number 0:14:53.440 --> 0:14:56.560 one target. That's tough in its own right, but missing 0:14:56.600 --> 0:14:59.000 guys on the offensive line is a completely different antisident. 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:01.720 You know this as a former, when you have to 0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.680 deal with the cohesion up front, when you have to 0:15:04.720 --> 0:15:07.920 deal with a different ball snapper, when you're communication center, 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:11.400 that communication and then you've got to move positions. Hikema 0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:14.600 Tenergy has played what throughout majority of his time in Dallas, 0:15:15.080 --> 0:15:16.760 He's played tackle, He's playing left guard. 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:19.360 He's going in there and playing left guard. Nate Thomas 0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:20.040 did not. 0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:23.600 Play his entire rookie season, really didn't practice his entire 0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:24.240 rookie season. 0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:27.640 This is his de facto rookie season and he's playing 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:31.160 at left tackle for a former frame. Let him go. Absolutely. 0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:33.440 The one thing I even hate about this is because 0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.040 people out there that are draft nuts, and we hear 0:15:36.080 --> 0:15:37.760 this a lot on the draft show of you should 0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:40.840 never spend first round picks on offensive linemen. But it 0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:43.360 was three undrafted free agents, a sixth round pick, and 0:15:43.400 --> 0:15:46.360 a seventh round pick starting up front for your offensive 0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:48.960 line in this game, and they did their job. But 0:15:49.040 --> 0:15:51.360 I think that that's a lot of credit to Clayton Adams, 0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:53.200 There's a lot of credit to Connor Riley. It's a 0:15:53.240 --> 0:15:55.400 lot of credit to the guys up front that put 0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:58.120 it all together, because when they pieced it all together, 0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:00.600 it made a complete difference. And you could well Dak 0:16:00.760 --> 0:16:05.200 was still comfortable in the pocket running this offense all 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:08.160 the way through this even without his starting four of 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:12.080 five offensive linemen. That's an incredible stat and I think 0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:14.400 no matter if they're playing a high school team or 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:17.360 college team or a pro team like the New York Jets, 0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:20.440 I don't care. That is a huge win because you 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:22.120 got it done without those guys in the. 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.400 Foll Tommy Arrish wrote a great article about this and 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:27.280 about deck support of the offensive line, the backup offensive line, 0:16:27.280 --> 0:16:29.480 and in his press conference he was talking about how 0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:32.200 if there's anybody that believes in guys that people think 0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:35.840 shouldn't be starting, it's me. That's not the exact quote, 0:16:35.840 --> 0:16:39.240 but please check out that article. His confidence level in 0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:42.400 the offensive line was at its highest end. I mean 0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:45.240 for good reason, because those guys played lights out there. 0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:47.560 It was so funny because when we were doing our 0:16:47.840 --> 0:16:50.760 training camp shows, Yeah, he was telling people, you know, 0:16:50.760 --> 0:16:53.160 we were talking about what's the biggest high you know, 0:16:53.200 --> 0:16:56.480 biggest additions to the team this year, And like I 0:16:56.600 --> 0:17:00.320 kept going back to my conversations on air and all air, 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:03.440 the offensive line, the investment into the coaches, investments to 0:17:03.480 --> 0:17:05.439 the coaches, investment to the coaches, and they're like, you 0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:08.960 sound crazy. Everybody wants to hear the players. This is why, 0:17:09.880 --> 0:17:12.880 this is why when you are able to go and 0:17:13.000 --> 0:17:16.879 take the arguably the best offensive line coach in the 0:17:17.000 --> 0:17:18.639 NFL and bring him on your staff. 0:17:18.640 --> 0:17:20.119 You took him, you took. 0:17:20.040 --> 0:17:22.760 Him from Arizona, and then you went and you took 0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:25.760 arguably the best offensive line coach in college and you 0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:29.440 brought him on your staff. You have two masterminds at 0:17:29.480 --> 0:17:33.480 that position group working on where you have invested the 0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:37.560 most resources over the last few years. And now you're 0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:41.080 seeing the productivity not only from your starters, but now 0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:45.600 you're understanding the importance of positional coaching. It is the 0:17:45.640 --> 0:17:49.399 most undervalued aspect of this NFL game. 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:52.240 Position coaches. We have been on this show. 0:17:52.359 --> 0:17:54.960 It was just talking cowboys, right, we talk about that's 0:17:54.960 --> 0:17:57.480 the show' that's the show'run we talk about position, the 0:17:57.520 --> 0:18:01.199 importance of position coaches. So much talked. We've given a 0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:03.800 lot of credit to Linda Wells. We talked about al 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:05.840 Haras last year. We've talked about a lot of these 0:18:05.880 --> 0:18:07.720 positional coaches and the impact that they have. 0:18:08.440 --> 0:18:09.560 You are seeing it. 0:18:10.040 --> 0:18:12.840 You do not, and I repeat, you do not get 0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:15.520 to your second and third people on the depth chart 0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:19.119 at the offensive line and maintain your productivity. 0:18:19.400 --> 0:18:21.200 It does not happen in this league. 0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:23.520 You might get away with it at maybe one spot 0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:25.720 on your offensive line because you can kind of help 0:18:25.760 --> 0:18:28.760 and favor and shift and change your scheme four out 0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:31.119 of your five and you're still putting up numbers and 0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:33.800 people are having career days. 0:18:34.280 --> 0:18:36.000 It doesn't happen. 0:18:36.080 --> 0:18:39.359 So I want people to understand and please give hand 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:43.520 claps to Shoddy and give hand claps to this offensive 0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:47.479 line mastermind that has taken place between those two coaches 0:18:47.480 --> 0:18:50.399 that are responsible for that unit that goes out regardless 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:53.280 of the personnel, it doesn't happen. And you have to 0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:57.760 pay respect to Shoddy for identifying where the resources needed 0:18:57.800 --> 0:18:58.359 to be placed. 0:18:58.400 --> 0:18:59.680 It wasn't the popular thing. 0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:02.879 It wasn't flashy, It wasn't we're going to trading and 0:19:02.920 --> 0:19:05.879 grabbing some more off No, these are our guys.

I'm not just left to be Yeah, 0:24:58.040 --> 0:24:59.320 all right, it's all right. 0:24:59.359 --> 0:25:01.240 My team hasn't won anything in many years. 0:25:01.320 --> 0:25:04.360 We got to talk about the Art Intitute Art Institute 0:25:04.359 --> 0:25:08.280 of Dallas. All right, big Cowboys give up a couple 0:25:08.320 --> 0:25:12.480 of eight touchdowns two touchdowns in the final half of 0:25:12.600 --> 0:25:15.240 the fourth quarter. Seven to fifty six left in the 0:25:15.240 --> 0:25:17.919 fourth quarter. That is when really the points started to 0:25:18.000 --> 0:25:20.280 happen for the Jets. But they held the Jets up 0:25:20.400 --> 0:25:24.360 until that point to just six points. However, Breese Hall 0:25:24.600 --> 0:25:27.680 fourteen carries one hundred and thirteen yards eight point one 0:25:28.200 --> 0:25:31.520 yards per carry. He was running the football effectively, but 0:25:31.720 --> 0:25:35.840 justin fields was not effective. His passer rating and his 0:25:36.200 --> 0:25:39.640 overall stat line is not going to look poor. I mean, 0:25:39.640 --> 0:25:41.840 he was thirty two or forty six passing two eighty 0:25:41.840 --> 0:25:43.560 three and two touchdowns. 0:25:43.240 --> 0:25:44.800 But he didn't have any rhythm. 0:25:44.840 --> 0:25:47.119 Did he forget that he could run really fast? 0:25:47.320 --> 0:25:47.720 Yeah? 0:25:47.760 --> 0:25:50.520 Probably he just forgot. Every time he sees the Star, 0:25:50.760 --> 0:25:51.919 he's just like, wait to say. 0:25:51.880 --> 0:25:54.440 I was okay, it happened last year in Pittsburgh too, 0:25:54.600 --> 0:25:55.680 exactly same thing. 0:25:55.800 --> 0:25:56.920 What are you doing, dude? 0:25:57.040 --> 0:25:57.639 Run the ball? 0:25:57.680 --> 0:25:59.520 I mean I'm not even fine with it. 0:25:59.720 --> 0:26:02.679 Yeah, I'm fine with it, thank you, appreciate you. But 0:26:03.040 --> 0:26:05.960 that whole dual threat thing we were all concerned about 0:26:06.200 --> 0:26:09.240 all at all didn't show it one bit. Granted that's 0:26:09.359 --> 0:26:11.959 the Cowboys being able to put him on notice and 0:26:11.960 --> 0:26:13.239 be able to contain him quite a bit. 0:26:13.840 --> 0:26:13.959 Uh. 0:26:14.600 --> 0:26:17.040 I'm like, what somebody got in his head? He think? 0:26:17.080 --> 0:26:17.159 So? 0:26:17.359 --> 0:26:22.120 Yeah? Like on his own side. Yes, yeah, that's unfortunate for. 0:26:22.119 --> 0:26:24.480 Him, unfortunate for him and beneficial for us, Thank you 0:26:24.600 --> 0:26:24.920 very much. 0:26:25.200 --> 0:26:27.000 I hate that for him, love it for him. 0:26:28.000 --> 0:26:31.720 But where did you see the biggest improvement from week 0:26:32.000 --> 0:26:33.240 four to week five? 0:26:33.320 --> 0:26:34.440 I'll start with you, John. 0:26:34.240 --> 0:26:38.440 Third down efficiency like it, the Jets offense was only 0:26:38.560 --> 0:26:41.880 seven of sixteen forty four percent, which by our metrics 0:26:41.920 --> 0:26:43.640 is pretty darn good for this defense. 0:26:43.680 --> 0:26:45.560 I'm down for that degree turn. 0:26:45.760 --> 0:26:48.320 I was actually okay with that. And then another improvement 0:26:48.359 --> 0:26:52.560 over last week was snaps for James Houston. Granted he 0:26:52.640 --> 0:26:54.679 had the same amount of snaps as last week, but 0:26:54.920 --> 0:26:59.560 you saw the snaps being sort of divvied equally more 0:26:59.600 --> 0:27:03.040 so this Jadavin Clowney had thirty one snaps up from 0:27:03.040 --> 0:27:06.720 twenty three last week. Again, James Houston thirty six, Sam 0:27:06.720 --> 0:27:09.960 Williams forty four, Donovan Azaraku fifty two, and Dante Feller 0:27:10.040 --> 0:27:12.720 thirty four. To me, that's a pretty darn good split 0:27:12.760 --> 0:27:15.440 for what you're asking for from this defensive rotation. Yeah, 0:27:16.400 --> 0:27:20.280 and again James Houston is he's great. Yeah, maybe keep 0:27:20.320 --> 0:27:20.960 him out there more. 0:27:21.160 --> 0:27:25.600 Speaking to that point, biggest improvement pass rush for me, 0:27:25.720 --> 0:27:27.400 I think the pass rush and I don't I think, 0:27:27.440 --> 0:27:31.040 I know the pass rush helped contribute to the third 0:27:31.040 --> 0:27:33.520 down efficiency of the Cowboys defense and being able to 0:27:33.560 --> 0:27:34.720 get off of the field more often. 0:27:34.720 --> 0:27:41.359 Than not. But James Houston, You're a dog, a weapon, 0:27:41.480 --> 0:27:43.240 arguably absolute dog. 0:27:43.600 --> 0:27:46.320 Needs to be starting. It's We've been saying it. We've 0:27:46.320 --> 0:27:48.679 been pounding the table about it. Isaiah's been standing on 0:27:48.680 --> 0:27:50.560 the table about it. And I'm right there with him. 0:27:50.600 --> 0:27:51.920 We all been right there with him. We need to 0:27:51.920 --> 0:27:54.920 see more James Houston. His efficiency as far as when 0:27:54.920 --> 0:27:57.920 he's in the game, his production versus his availability. 0:27:58.240 --> 0:27:59.640 It's off the freaking charge. 0:28:00.160 --> 0:28:03.560 And then you started to see contributions from other guys. 0:28:03.640 --> 0:28:05.919 Dante follow We talked about it, Sam Williams once he 0:28:06.040 --> 0:28:07.880 got that that Tyler had a good game. 0:28:07.960 --> 0:28:08.200 He did. 0:28:08.280 --> 0:28:12.399 When Sam Williams got that apparently obligatory penalty out of 0:28:12.400 --> 0:28:14.000 the way, it seems like he got to get one. 0:28:14.280 --> 0:28:16.000 He got that out of the way, he got it 0:28:16.000 --> 0:28:18.280 out of the way. He started playing some some big 0:28:18.320 --> 0:28:20.919 boy ball back there, right. So the pass rush for 0:28:20.960 --> 0:28:24.320 me is the biggest takeaway. They found it, and they 0:28:24.480 --> 0:28:27.680 just absolutely harassed Justin wo Justin Feelds the whole game. 0:28:28.119 --> 0:28:30.800 He was nervous. He did look like he was playing nervous. 0:28:30.840 --> 0:28:34.440 They did a much better job of rushing lane discipline, 0:28:34.640 --> 0:28:36.840 keeping him contained. They didn't let him break out a 0:28:36.840 --> 0:28:40.120 lot of times to the outside. Now that's the good. 0:28:41.000 --> 0:28:43.560 The bad is that the run defense, which has been 0:28:43.600 --> 0:28:45.040 stout this season, had a bad day at. 0:28:45.000 --> 0:28:47.760 The office yesterday. Yeah, the most part Breist Hall. 0:28:48.080 --> 0:28:50.360 When you look at those numbers eight point one, those 0:28:50.360 --> 0:28:53.600 are true numbers. Those numbers weren't just being stacked up 0:28:53.640 --> 0:28:56.200 in garbage time like he had the jets and positions 0:28:56.200 --> 0:28:59.640 several times to find pay dirt. So shouts out to 0:28:59.640 --> 0:29:01.920 guys like Marrius lea foule. You know that red zone, 0:29:02.120 --> 0:29:04.000 the drive where they got into the red zone and 0:29:04.040 --> 0:29:06.920 bris Hall he tears off another chunk and right behind 0:29:07.000 --> 0:29:09.520 him comes maryus lea foul, heat seeking missile. 0:29:09.760 --> 0:29:16.280 Gimme, what'd you call it? Was that the Hawaiian punch? Oh? 0:29:16.360 --> 0:29:19.160 That was on my highlight reel last night. Hawaiian punch. 0:29:19.240 --> 0:29:22.680 You've got the juice. Now, Marist bring the juice. He 0:29:22.720 --> 0:29:26.480 did bring you got that. Lots of that. 0:29:26.640 --> 0:29:29.720 Lots shouts out to one year Thomas. We talked about 0:29:29.760 --> 0:29:31.680 how well he played in coverage and his you know, 0:29:31.840 --> 0:29:35.040 great eye, disciplined yesterday, not cheating too far in one 0:29:35.040 --> 0:29:37.400 direction or the other, just played it true, keeping everything, 0:29:38.000 --> 0:29:40.560 keeping everything in front of him, to at least two, 0:29:40.680 --> 0:29:44.320 possibly three different occasions where Brice Hall broke out and 0:29:44.440 --> 0:29:46.840 it was one year that stopped him from cribbing that ball. 0:29:47.280 --> 0:29:49.200 So when you talk about one yea, some of these 0:29:49.240 --> 0:29:53.440 younger guys, these young guys, you know, Houston Marist one 0:29:53.520 --> 0:29:55.200 yea and then you flip to the offensive side of 0:29:55.200 --> 0:29:58.160 the ball. These young guys had a day yesterday. But again, 0:29:58.280 --> 0:30:01.360 run defense, because they've played well through the first four games. 0:30:01.640 --> 0:30:03.080 I'm just gonna treat it as a bad day at 0:30:03.120 --> 0:30:06.000 the office. So going forward, if you can get this 0:30:06.040 --> 0:30:08.560 pass rush that we saw against the Jets in addition 0:30:08.680 --> 0:30:12.520 to the weeks one through four run defense, that's going 0:30:12.600 --> 0:30:16.160 to set safety, safety play, coming back play up for success. 0:30:16.440 --> 0:30:19.560 And now now Eberflus' scheme can take hold. 0:30:19.680 --> 0:30:21.880 I would argue that Solomon Thomas had a really good 0:30:21.920 --> 0:30:24.640 game aside from the rush defense, Like you're talking about 0:30:24.640 --> 0:30:28.160 the rust. The wrong game was pretty bad in terms 0:30:28.200 --> 0:30:31.680 of our defense. But what Solomon Thomas was able to 0:30:31.680 --> 0:30:34.040 do with OSA was able to do in keeping justin 0:30:34.080 --> 0:30:38.000 fields contained and limiting you know, the rushing quarterback, the 0:30:38.240 --> 0:30:40.560 dual threat that we're talking about, and then also just 0:30:40.680 --> 0:30:43.320 limiting like the pocket just like that's where you're just 0:30:43.360 --> 0:30:45.080 gonna throw from all day, and he wasn't doing very 0:30:45.080 --> 0:30:45.840 good at great. 0:30:45.880 --> 0:30:47.560 That's what you need, a pocket passer. 0:30:47.920 --> 0:30:51.440 So the thing that helped, sorry Summer tanlessly continued to 0:30:51.440 --> 0:30:55.600 watch film, the thing that helped the pass rush hurt 0:30:55.880 --> 0:30:59.960 the rush defense with eber Flus. Eberflus does not like 0:31:00.080 --> 0:31:03.240 to blitz. He doesn't like to bring additional players. 0:31:03.000 --> 0:31:05.000 To his company. Get home, you're going to try to 0:31:05.000 --> 0:31:06.560 get home with with four guys up front. 0:31:06.640 --> 0:31:08.400 And the way in which he was able to do 0:31:08.440 --> 0:31:11.960 that effectively yesterday was by doing a lot of defensive 0:31:12.000 --> 0:31:12.640 line movement. 0:31:12.760 --> 0:31:14.640 Right, a lot of guys were running. 0:31:14.560 --> 0:31:17.680 TT stunts, which means that the two interior defensive linemen 0:31:17.720 --> 0:31:22.200 were crossing. You're running stunts across where three three defensive 0:31:22.200 --> 0:31:24.280 alignment across the face of the offensive line. You bring 0:31:24.360 --> 0:31:27.680 James Houston around right so that the tackles are consumed 0:31:27.720 --> 0:31:31.200 by the crossing defensive tackles across their face and James 0:31:31.200 --> 0:31:33.360 Houston is able to sneak by. So they were doing 0:31:33.400 --> 0:31:36.200 a lot of movement up front. Now that helps in 0:31:36.280 --> 0:31:39.200 terms of your pass rush, but when you were doing 0:31:39.240 --> 0:31:43.000 that on say majority of your plays, now when they 0:31:43.040 --> 0:31:46.719 decide to run, they're using your momentum against you. Right, 0:31:46.760 --> 0:31:49.000 So if you're crossing my face and we're running the ball, 0:31:49.080 --> 0:31:51.080 I'm taking you in the direction that you're going, which 0:31:51.120 --> 0:31:53.920 means I'm washing you out of the play, which creates 0:31:53.960 --> 0:31:57.320 big run lanes. That is something that they're going to 0:31:57.360 --> 0:32:00.520 have to fix. It was good that they fixed the 0:32:00.560 --> 0:32:02.680 pass rush with that, but it exposed them in the 0:32:02.720 --> 0:32:05.800 running game. So now Eberflus has the film to say, Okay, 0:32:05.920 --> 0:32:08.280 this was effective, we can do this with pass, but 0:32:08.400 --> 0:32:10.760 how do we now still protect ourselves in the running 0:32:10.800 --> 0:32:16.200 game while still running this type of scheme. So what 0:32:16.320 --> 0:32:19.800 you said so really really good in terms of the passing, 0:32:19.840 --> 0:32:22.680 but to your point, your moves. So, yeah, some guys 0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:25.600 got rushed. I mean some guys got washed out. And 0:32:25.640 --> 0:32:27.800 so that's why there was such big splash plays in 0:32:27.840 --> 0:32:31.080 the running game because they're stunning guys across the face 0:32:31.120 --> 0:32:34.200 and they're scraping linebackers to go ahead and feel the outside. 0:32:34.240 --> 0:32:36.560 So they're taking away the outside run. But the middle 0:32:36.560 --> 0:32:40.280 of the field there's nobody there. But overall the two 0:32:40.280 --> 0:32:42.760 interior guys, OSA had a good game. Osa was able 0:32:42.760 --> 0:32:45.520 to get a lot of penetration of the season. Yep, 0:32:45.560 --> 0:32:48.880 Solomon Thomas had had a lot of really good, high 0:32:48.880 --> 0:32:52.600 effort plays that created some havoc. Mazi was, actually, he's 0:32:52.600 --> 0:32:54.320 like a spark plug right now. That's kind of like 0:32:54.360 --> 0:32:58.800 sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. So you see you 0:32:58.840 --> 0:33:01.040 see like okay for a second and then the next 0:33:01.080 --> 0:33:03.600 thing's like, ah, like it's I have to hit the 0:33:03.640 --> 0:33:05.080 gas right exactly. 0:33:05.120 --> 0:33:07.080 It's like the long lighter. It's like the long lighter. 0:33:07.120 --> 0:33:07.640 You know what I'm saying. 0:33:08.040 --> 0:33:09.920 When it works, it works, and then other times you're like, 0:33:10.000 --> 0:33:11.600 come on, man, what is going on? 0:33:11.760 --> 0:33:14.000 So that's where Mozzi's at right now. But it's good. 0:33:14.040 --> 0:33:17.560 It's encouraging to see when he's on, he's freaking powerful 0:33:18.080 --> 0:33:21.040 and it's it's it's it's very surprising because it doesn't 0:33:21.080 --> 0:33:22.920 look powerful. But then you look at the office lineman 0:33:23.000 --> 0:33:25.080 going backwards and you're like, dang, he's moving these guys. 0:33:25.120 --> 0:33:28.920 He's putting them on sleds. I like to see that. 0:33:28.960 --> 0:33:30.240 I just want to see it more frequently. 0:33:30.280 --> 0:33:33.320 They did pair Mozzi Smith with Kenny Clark times. 0:33:33.520 --> 0:33:37.440 I liked that because one Mazzie Smith, when he was 0:33:37.480 --> 0:33:40.160 brought in here was hopeful to be a nose tech 0:33:40.320 --> 0:33:40.640 and then. 0:33:40.560 --> 0:33:44.000 He loses all those two It just didn't work out. 0:33:44.200 --> 0:33:46.840 I think Mozzie can be a serviceable three tech, yes, 0:33:46.880 --> 0:33:49.160 I really do. In this league somewhat to get quicker, 0:33:49.200 --> 0:33:50.920 and it felt like there was just a there was 0:33:50.960 --> 0:33:54.000 a pigeonholed role for him to try and fill the 0:33:54.000 --> 0:33:54.520 nose tackle. 0:33:54.560 --> 0:33:56.120 That's what we brought you in here to do. That's 0:33:56.120 --> 0:33:57.960 what you got to do, and we need one right now. 0:33:58.480 --> 0:33:59.320 Now you don't need one. 0:33:59.440 --> 0:34:01.560 You have Kenny Clark as your nose tackle as you're 0:34:01.640 --> 0:34:05.320 super strong, muddy up the middle defensive nose tackle. 0:34:06.160 --> 0:34:08.359 Now Mazzi Smith can kind of play free a little bit. 0:34:08.800 --> 0:34:11.520 And he's not said to Yizu, he's not your best, 0:34:11.640 --> 0:34:13.560 he's not twitch your roster, but he's better as a 0:34:13.560 --> 0:34:14.919 three tech than he is as a one tech. 0:34:14.920 --> 0:34:15.160 Sure. 0:34:15.160 --> 0:34:16.959 And I think now that you've got those two guys 0:34:16.960 --> 0:34:20.879 to pair together, it makes it Osa Solomon and then 0:34:20.920 --> 0:34:23.120 not a massive drop off to Mazzie Smith and what 0:34:23.160 --> 0:34:26.520 he can do there too. I think that rotation bodes 0:34:26.560 --> 0:34:28.520 better for him, and you saw it on the film yesterday. 0:34:28.680 --> 0:34:31.360 One thing that I like to point to that is 0:34:31.400 --> 0:34:38.120 important the motions from the defense, the defenders were playing 0:34:38.480 --> 0:34:42.440 with heightened emotions. They were excited. They were for the 0:34:42.480 --> 0:34:45.600 first time ever, I saw Mazzi exciting. 0:34:45.719 --> 0:34:46.520 I saw that right. 0:34:46.840 --> 0:34:50.839 Mazzi didn't make the play, but what Mazzi did on 0:34:50.960 --> 0:34:53.520 particular plays allow for his teammates to make the play, 0:34:53.600 --> 0:34:57.560 and he's celebrated as if he made the play. That's understanding. 0:34:57.640 --> 0:35:00.640 You could tell that's registering with him. I did my job, 0:35:00.640 --> 0:35:02.759 and because I did my job, the guy that I 0:35:02.800 --> 0:35:05.560 was trying to free up made the play. I'm hype like. 0:35:05.760 --> 0:35:07.840 That was so encouraging to see. And the stuff that 0:35:07.880 --> 0:35:09.440 you don't see on the film unless you go back 0:35:09.480 --> 0:35:11.799 and really watch it, that was encouraging to see. It 0:35:11.880 --> 0:35:15.920 was encouraging to see Trayvon Diggs celebrating from the cornerback 0:35:16.040 --> 0:35:20.120 role while his teammates were getting sacks because he understood 0:35:20.160 --> 0:35:23.840 that this were what I did on the outside took 0:35:23.880 --> 0:35:26.480 away where Justin Fields wanted to go with the ball. 0:35:26.640 --> 0:35:29.520 And because I did my job, my guys went out 0:35:29.520 --> 0:35:32.520 there and made to play. And you saw him celebrating 0:35:32.840 --> 0:35:35.239 the sack. It wasn't okay, we're walking off, Okay, good job. 0:35:35.360 --> 0:35:37.680 It was yeah, let's go baby like, because I took 0:35:37.719 --> 0:35:39.880 this away. We got the sacks. So you're seeing this 0:35:39.960 --> 0:35:43.840 camaraderie really start to come to fruition. And then you 0:35:43.880 --> 0:35:46.840 guys were talking about the defense all in its totality 0:35:48.160 --> 0:35:50.520 so much faster at the second level, it's way faster. 0:35:51.360 --> 0:35:54.480 Shamar James is so decisive. Is he making all the 0:35:54.520 --> 0:35:57.520 right decisions? Know he's young, but he's decisive man, and 0:35:57.640 --> 0:35:59.759 he's going. He's flying around, he's hitting, he's flying. 0:36:00.360 --> 0:36:01.000 He loves to hit. 0:36:01.120 --> 0:36:05.520 His energy's crazy. Kenneth Murray is still a tackling machine. Okay, 0:36:05.560 --> 0:36:08.120 so you got Kenneth Murray. I got from Kennedy. 0:36:08.120 --> 0:36:11.520 Absolutely, he gets lost in the sauce off a linebacker 0:36:11.560 --> 0:36:15.040 play and bro poor Ed Rusher set in the at times. 0:36:15.200 --> 0:36:17.359 I like what we've seen the most part. 0:36:17.360 --> 0:36:18.880 He had a good game yesterday, but he did have 0:36:18.920 --> 0:36:21.439 a couple of misses like one of Hall's. 0:36:21.960 --> 0:36:24.960 When he has guys, like when you have guys like 0:36:25.000 --> 0:36:28.840 Shamar James and Merrisley that are clean up those things putting, 0:36:28.880 --> 0:36:32.480 you gotta love it is probably back there beginning to believe. 0:36:32.719 --> 0:36:33.279 You know what I mean, like. 0:36:35.440 --> 0:36:37.600 What you have on that James, So you're right, talk 0:36:37.640 --> 0:36:39.480 about the second level. You have Kenneth Murray, who's a 0:36:39.520 --> 0:36:43.080 tackling machine in the middle. You booking him with Marius Leafu, 0:36:43.200 --> 0:36:48.000 who's a freaking flying Hawaiian. Hey, hey, Hawaiian Shamar James, 0:36:48.000 --> 0:36:50.520 who just wants to run through somebody's face, right, He's 0:36:50.560 --> 0:36:53.080 just a high effort guy. And then when you walk 0:36:53.120 --> 0:36:55.840 somebody down in the box, it's either jan Ye Thomas 0:36:56.280 --> 0:36:57.640 or is Donovan Wilson. 0:36:58.239 --> 0:37:00.719 Both of those guys fly around in hits. 0:37:00.760 --> 0:37:03.040 So that second level, the reason why you're seeing the 0:37:03.080 --> 0:37:05.279 speed of the defense, the reason why you're seeing guys 0:37:05.280 --> 0:37:07.680 fly around and be a dog on moth to a 0:37:07.680 --> 0:37:11.320 flame right now, is because you have those four potentially 0:37:11.360 --> 0:37:14.279 five guys in that rotation at your second level. So 0:37:14.280 --> 0:37:16.000 you have your guys up front that are trying to 0:37:16.000 --> 0:37:18.799 get after the quarterback your second level as fast as 0:37:18.800 --> 0:37:20.520 all get out. They did a much better job of 0:37:20.560 --> 0:37:23.480 getting depth right, not allowing passes behind them, and then 0:37:23.520 --> 0:37:27.839 playing downhill. That's why this defense feels different right now. 0:37:27.880 --> 0:37:30.920 And you you replace a couple of pieces right Unfortunately 0:37:30.960 --> 0:37:33.360 that go out with injury, but opportunities present themselves in 0:37:33.440 --> 0:37:36.480 this league based on injuries. Million Hooker goes out, Jack 0:37:36.520 --> 0:37:40.879 Samborn goes out, jan Ye comes in, Lea Falc James 0:37:40.920 --> 0:37:43.160 and Jamar James come in and looks better. 0:37:43.640 --> 0:37:47.040 Acubly, there may be one more guy that they're missing. 0:37:47.080 --> 0:37:49.319 Remember at the end of that game, Donovan Wilson had 0:37:49.360 --> 0:37:52.080 to leave because of injury right at the end of 0:37:51.880 --> 0:37:54.759 the final defensive drive. But you got Marquis bald that 0:37:54.760 --> 0:37:58.680 I could replace. You feel comfortable there. But Donovan Wilson, 0:37:58.719 --> 0:38:00.040 that was probably his best game. 0:38:00.480 --> 0:38:02.840 Because he's doing what they what he does. He's sass, 0:38:02.840 --> 0:38:05.280 he plays down, not playing coverage. He's a box Saan 0:38:05.360 --> 0:38:07.640 saying this since twenty nine. Yeah, and if. 0:38:07.560 --> 0:38:11.279 Unfortunately, if Donald's out, you have another box safety that 0:38:11.320 --> 0:38:12.920 can come in and replace. So I'm gonna say, like, 0:38:12.960 --> 0:38:15.800 guys are It's like ibra Flus is figuring out. 0:38:16.480 --> 0:38:19.319 I can't just plug guys into my system. Right. 0:38:19.400 --> 0:38:21.560 I'm learning what these guys do best and I'm putting 0:38:21.600 --> 0:38:24.239 them in a position to be successful. And then the 0:38:24.320 --> 0:38:25.120 second half of the. 0:38:25.160 --> 0:38:27.160 Year, don't you get another guy back. 0:38:28.160 --> 0:38:31.040 We'll talk about Agent zero when he comes back in 0:38:31.160 --> 0:38:33.680 like a month, we'll see. But when we come back, 0:38:33.719 --> 0:38:35.560 we've got to do some smelly stickers. We got to 0:38:35.560 --> 0:38:38.560 get credit to those ye hed a huge impact in 0:38:38.600 --> 0:38:41.360 the thirty seven twenty two win over the New York Jets. 0:38:41.400 --> 0:38:44.640 More to come with talking cowboys after this.

You know what I smell. 0:44:02.120 --> 0:44:05.640 I smell two mangoes hanging out, crossing the legs, just chilling. 0:44:05.680 --> 0:44:07.600 Two fellas just hanging out. You know, because they took 0:44:07.600 --> 0:44:09.640 care of business. You know who those two fellows are exactly, 0:44:10.000 --> 0:44:13.319 Clayton Adams and Connor Riley. They are those two guys 0:44:13.440 --> 0:44:15.520 just hanging out. You know why because they never doubted it, 0:44:15.920 --> 0:44:19.480 y'all just finding out. Boom there it is right there 0:44:19.480 --> 0:44:19.879 in the front. 0:44:19.920 --> 0:44:20.799 Oh, I love it. 0:44:20.840 --> 0:44:22.800 Clayton Adams strong head coaching candidate. 0:44:23.040 --> 0:44:25.200 Prove don't do that, don't. 0:44:25.520 --> 0:44:29.480 I'm just saying. I'm just saying, at the totality of 0:44:29.520 --> 0:44:31.239 this year, you might shut down. 0:44:31.360 --> 0:44:35.120 Just hey, silence. First year head coaches in New York 0:44:35.120 --> 0:44:37.360 are like oh and five. He doesn't want to go 0:44:37.400 --> 0:44:38.000 there anyway. 0:44:38.040 --> 0:44:40.399 He doesn't marry that deep down inside and never bring 0:44:40.440 --> 0:44:40.680 it up. 0:44:41.480 --> 0:44:43.800 I don't want to lose them either. I like to 0:44:43.960 --> 0:44:48.960 plug it up. Dropping in the ship along with my mother. No, 0:44:49.719 --> 0:44:51.520 you got to know the quote. You know the rest 0:44:51.520 --> 0:44:52.000 of the quote. 0:44:52.480 --> 0:44:53.880 Okay, you just don't know. 0:44:53.920 --> 0:44:58.680 I don't know after the show, Okay, I. 0:44:58.640 --> 0:44:59.480 Don't know what's going on. 0:45:02.400 --> 0:45:07.960 Okay, Okay, Okay, it's confused, all right. I'm a little 0:45:08.840 --> 0:45:10.799 I'm a little thrown off here because I wanted to 0:45:10.840 --> 0:45:12.920 go with an offensive player, but all three of you 0:45:12.960 --> 0:45:15.719 guys did an offensive player. I think there needs to 0:45:15.719 --> 0:45:19.080 be a little bit of love for the defense, absolutely, Kyle. 0:45:19.160 --> 0:45:22.360 I think there needs to be my my original smelly sticker. 0:45:22.360 --> 0:45:24.080 And the reason I grabbed the macaroon. I was gonna 0:45:24.080 --> 0:45:27.920 give it to Dak Prescott's French French macaroon. 0:45:28.360 --> 0:45:30.040 Is that how you's saying, Macon. 0:45:30.719 --> 0:45:33.360 So one of the things about a macaroon is you 0:45:33.440 --> 0:45:35.680 have the icing and it's kind of smashed in the middle, 0:45:35.880 --> 0:45:38.279 you know. And so that was Dak Prescott, he was 0:45:38.280 --> 0:45:40.319 putting it all together on the offensive side. 0:45:40.320 --> 0:45:42.040 That was gonna be my original smelly sticker. 0:45:42.400 --> 0:45:44.840 But now I'm going to give it to coach Eberflus, Okay, 0:45:44.880 --> 0:45:47.279 because I think the defense as a figur it out 0:45:47.320 --> 0:45:49.879 put it all together, and they pieced it together going 0:45:49.920 --> 0:45:53.680 into this matchup, Dak, you're an MVP caliber player. I 0:45:54.080 --> 0:45:56.200 still I would give you a smelly sticker every week 0:45:56.239 --> 0:45:58.640 so far, a few more, you'll get a couple throughout 0:45:58.680 --> 0:45:58.920 the year. 0:45:58.920 --> 0:46:00.439 But I'm gonna I'm gonna switch it up a little 0:46:00.440 --> 0:46:01.840 bit here. I'm gonna give it to coach. 0:46:01.680 --> 0:46:03.600 E Reflus because he is he's starting to put it 0:46:03.640 --> 0:46:06.560 all together and he's beginning to be pretty sweet. 0:46:06.280 --> 0:46:09.600 Like a Mawks and he's only going to get stronger 0:46:09.600 --> 0:46:11.120 because guys are coming back. 0:46:11.560 --> 0:46:18.000 Yes, Agent, you still have multiple corners that are out. Yeah, 0:46:18.000 --> 0:46:21.279 and you might be missing another safety this week, Marquise, Yeah, 0:46:21.320 --> 0:46:23.640 I'm in. We'll see. We'll see. You're leading backler from 0:46:23.640 --> 0:46:24.200 two years ago. 0:46:24.320 --> 0:46:26.920 I think for as much as that defense has not 0:46:26.960 --> 0:46:28.680 played well, I think there needs to be credit where 0:46:28.680 --> 0:46:29.120 credit is. 0:46:29.040 --> 0:46:30.640 The Absolutely they shut down a. 0:46:30.600 --> 0:46:33.680 Mobile quarterback in justin fields, whether it was his choice 0:46:33.760 --> 0:46:36.440 or not. He did not run the football, his mobile 0:46:36.440 --> 0:46:38.680 button didn't work. The only thing that was really tough 0:46:38.760 --> 0:46:41.839 was the running game. And Briest Hall's an elite running back. 0:46:41.880 --> 0:46:42.399 He's a dude. 0:46:42.600 --> 0:46:44.520 One more thing before we get out of here, Patrick, 0:46:44.520 --> 0:46:45.799 can you hold up your sign real quick. 0:46:46.480 --> 0:46:49.040 Let's just mash your table. Let's just make sure that 0:46:49.320 --> 0:46:50.160 you guys understand. 0:46:50.200 --> 0:46:52.600 I just I want to say this. It does not 0:46:52.680 --> 0:46:54.360 mean the Cowboys are gonna win the Super Bowl. But 0:46:54.480 --> 0:46:56.520 don't come at me with this zero to. 0:46:56.360 --> 0:46:58.799 Five talk with New York chet. That's why we hit 0:46:58.840 --> 0:47:00.600 it in the beginning. We totally They're going to. 0:47:00.520 --> 0:47:03.359 Say Pittsburgh team theory and now let's not move any 0:47:03.360 --> 0:47:04.000 goalposts here. 0:47:04.280 --> 0:47:05.120 Yeah, let's not move it. 0:47:05.560 --> 0:47:06.359 Wanted to win that game. 0:47:06.440 --> 0:47:09.800 Pittsburgh Steelers beat them in Week one by two points. Whatever, 0:47:09.840 --> 0:47:12.080 the Pittsburgh Steelers, they're a one loss team right now. 0:47:12.280 --> 0:47:14.960 The Buffalo Bills beat them, not as bad as the 0:47:14.960 --> 0:47:15.680 Cowboys did. 0:47:15.719 --> 0:47:16.480 It was thirty to. 0:47:16.440 --> 0:47:18.920 Ten the final score, but it was a much closer 0:47:18.960 --> 0:47:20.759 game in that football game than this one was when 0:47:20.760 --> 0:47:24.600 it was thirty to three. Cowboys Buffalo one lost football team. 0:47:24.800 --> 0:47:28.760 Tampa Bay beat the Jets by two points. Two points, 0:47:28.760 --> 0:47:31.759 and it took a last minute drive to go down 0:47:31.960 --> 0:47:34.399 and beat the New York Jets while the Buccaneers were 0:47:34.440 --> 0:47:37.000 at home in that football game. So with all of 0:47:37.040 --> 0:47:40.400 this being said, don't move the goalposts, don't move it. 0:47:40.480 --> 0:47:45.000 Cowboys beat the Jets down on the Sunday afternoon in 0:47:45.040 --> 0:47:48.279 Week five, they get to win thirty seven twenty two. 0:47:48.320 --> 0:47:50.200 I guess thought it needed and that take does not 0:47:50.320 --> 0:47:53.840 imply the Cowboys always going to win the Super Bowl. 0:47:53.640 --> 0:47:54.560 Smiley, not the case. 0:47:54.600 --> 0:47:58.400 Cowboys two and one, back to five hundred and they 0:47:58.400 --> 0:48:00.640 take on the Carolina Panthers this week. We're gonna have 0:48:00.680 --> 0:48:03.080 a Talking Tuesday tomorrow. Be sure to give us a 0:48:03.080 --> 0:48:05.160 call eight eight eight a FI five two two ninety seven. 0:48:05.200 --> 0:48:07.160 We're gonna hear from you, guys.
