Speaker 4: Break live from the s WBC Mortgan Studios at the Star.

12
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,599
Speaker 4: Got Brian, Patrick and Amber here with me. We're going

13
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 4: to talk about the Cowboys defense versus the New England

14
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 4: offense for bulk of the show today. I do also

15
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 4: want to talk a little bit about Tony Pollard. We

16
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 4: haven't spent a lot of time on Tony poll but

17
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 4: I thought I saw some interesting statistics about his performance

18
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 4: so far the season. We'll get into that here early

19
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,119
Speaker 4: in the show. Before we do that, though, we'll get

20
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 4: a little bit of updates on our injury situations. We

21
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 4: got plenty of injury situations.

22
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 2: To talk about. Patrick, talk to us about.

23
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 4: Who's on the injury part and what we should know

24
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 4: and expect to happen as the week ends.

25
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 5: Well, as it stands, Tyler Baddish and Zach Martin are

26
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 5: expected to ramp up a bit in Thursday's practice. They

27
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 5: were both D and P did not participate on Wednesday.

28
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 5: Mike mcarthy says they're both expected to be limited, so

29
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 5: progress there. Tyron Smith is expected to be with the

30
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,279
Speaker 5: rehab group. Don't know that he'll see any limited work today,

31
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 5: but they'll see how he feels after the rehab group

32
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 5: ends and they'll go from there. But I expect him

33
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 5: to be D and P again this today as he

34
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 5: was on yesterday. Tom Idoka was limited because he's still

35
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 5: working through that elbow that he hyper extended against the Jets,

36
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 5: but no expectation that he'll miss this week as long

37
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 5: as he doesn't have a setback anything like that. DeMarcus

38
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 5: Lawrence ced Lamb were both absent from Wednesday practice, but

39
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 5: it was a veteran rest day that I'm told for

40
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 5: both of them.

41
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 2: How can I sign up for one of those?

42
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 5: I would like to have one as well. I should

43
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 5: talk to my immediate supervisor.

44
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 6: Yea, you who needs to approve it.

45
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: Fair enough.

46
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 5: So I don't know my immediate supervisors watching. My immediate

47
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 5: supervisor's immediate supervisor is sitting right here. So but yeah,

48
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 5: so veteran rest days for DeMarcus Lawrence and Cede Lamb.

49
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 5: So no concerns on either one of those guys. But

50
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 5: offensive line, there are at least there's at least some

51
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 5: progress being made towards them possibly returning on Sunday.

52
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 7: If you had to pick one guy that you probably

53
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,399
Speaker 7: don't want to play without this week, who is that guy.

54
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 2: On the offensive line?

55
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 7: I don't know to me, and I appreciate what Adoga

56
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 7: has tried to do, But if you told me I

57
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 7: could have Tyron Smith back this week and play and now,

58
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 7: I mean the way that Patrick's talking about him missing

59
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,679
Speaker 7: another day, will see how the week goes. I don't

60
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 7: know if I want to go through another of Matthew

61
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 7: Jordon versus a doga on the outside. You know, I

62
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 7: just I feel like that, you know, with what brock

63
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 7: Hoffman did inside at guard, I'm okay with, you know,

64
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 7: not that TJ. Bass was great, but he wasn't, you know,

65
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 7: terrible either. Having Zach Martin back would be huge, but

66
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 7: to me that left tackle spot, especially because they're committed

67
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:27,839
Speaker 7: to going ahead and playing.

68
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: Tyler Smith at left guard.

69
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 7: You know, there doesn't seem like much of an interest

70
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 7: in saying, well, I know, Tyler, hey, by the way

71
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 7: you were, you know, all rookie basically as a left tackle.

72
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 7: You probably you know we're flirting with Pro Bowl thoughts

73
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 7: as well by the way you played. But no, we're

74
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 7: just going to keep you at guard and let Adoga

75
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 7: handle that tackle spot, even though Adoga looked probably better

76
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 7: at guard than he has looked at tackle. Sometimes the

77
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 7: decisions baffle me a little bit. And I understand when

78
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 7: you start to talk about, well he worked here all week.

79
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 2: What we've learned about the NFL in this day and age.

80
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 7: This isn't nineteen seventy eight where the same five guys

81
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 7: played all fourteen games. You know, back in the day,

82
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 7: you have to be able to adapt and move and

83
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 7: not get caught in a bad spot. You know, playing

84
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,720
Speaker 7: Tyler Smith at left tackle last week might have helped

85
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 7: you in that football game, might have helped you in

86
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 7: that double move that you got sacked on. You know,

87
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 7: I just there's things, there's discussions, and in my mind,

88
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 7: I'm like just let me have Tyron Smith back the

89
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 7: way he played the first couple of weeks.

90
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 2: Let me have him back there at left tackle.

91
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 4: I'm willing to give them the benefit of doubt last

92
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 4: week because again, you got Tyler coming back from injury,

93
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,359
Speaker 4: You got the whole week where you maybe thought Tyron

94
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 4: was going to play, and then you get to last minute.

95
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 4: I agree with you, though you get to this weekend.

96
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 4: You had a full week now to play with the

97
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 4: prospects of Tyron Smith not playing, and it will be

98
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 4: in interesting to me if Tyron doesn't play this weekend

99
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 4: and they still opt to keep Tyler Smith at guard, right,

100
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:07,919
Speaker 4: Because I do agree with you. I think when you

101
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 4: look at that defensive line, Judo is a problem. He

102
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 4: is a problem, and if you don't pay attention to him,

103
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 4: then then you're going to have a problem. And I

104
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 4: think that you're he is I mean Tyler Smith is.

105
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 4: I mean Tyler Smith is one of your best offensive linemen.

106
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 4: If you're not going to put your best on the best,

107
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 4: then it just it makes me wonder a little bit.

108
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I agree, And I like you said, we'll

109
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 5: give them grace for last week because they didn't know

110
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 5: what was going on with Tyron Smith. I mean the

111
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 5: knee injury pops up on Saturday, and then they really

112
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 5: tried to give him a goal on Sunday. Then things

113
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 5: just got weird as far as posting actives. He's team captain,

114
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 5: but he's not going through warm ups and then he's

115
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 5: not playing. And all last week they had too many dope. Sorry,

116
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 5: they had Tyler Smith taking left guard reps, so they

117
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,799
Speaker 5: didn't want to disrupt the scheme at the last possible second.

118
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 5: But to your point, Derek, you don't have that going

119
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 5: into this week. I mean you have a very real

120
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 5: concern about Tyron Smith being able to go. So is

121
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 5: Tyler Smith getting reps at left tackle? And to Brian's point,

122
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 5: if you are without Tyron Smith, then for me, I've

123
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 5: got to see Tyler Smith at left tackle and then

124
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 5: you put you know, Eatoga at left guard.

125
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just man it just right the grace period.

126
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 7: But this day and age, you have to be super

127
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 7: flexible in how you play because with your lineup, with

128
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,599
Speaker 7: your current group of offensive linemen, you have one guy

129
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,919
Speaker 7: that it seems to something always happens to him, and

130
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 7: it might not always be in practice or something.

131
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 2: When you look at You know, with Tyron Smith.

132
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 7: He could wake up in a bad with a bad back,

133
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 7: he could wake up with a bat anybody can. But

134
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 7: he seems like the one that like crazy, what what

135
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 7: what happened? Kind of injuries, you know. And I just

136
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 7: think that, you know, with McCarthy, the couple of things

137
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 7: that he identified with getting the backups more work, but

138
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 7: also trying to be a little bit more flexible with

139
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 7: what they're going to do with the line.

140
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 2: I hope that's the case this week.

141
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 8: And this is where you have a backup plan, then

142
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 8: a backup, backup plan.

143
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 6: And I'm talking.

144
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 8: Specifical about situation because Okay, to be fair, you never

145
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 8: expect three of your starters to be out. So when

146
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 8: you add him uh Sech Martin, Tyler bed Ish, that's.

147
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 6: Something very unexpected that you did it.

148
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 2: You could plan for Tyrone exactly.

149
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 8: But then that goes into the question that maybe the

150
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 8: guy that you had for to be Tyron's backup, now

151
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 8: you've got to move around because of the other guys

152
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 8: being out.

153
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 7: But I think to me, there was always the side

154
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 7: of me that once that Tyler Smith played the whole

155
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 7: season at left tackle last year, I'm like leave him there.

156
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 2: That kid can play. Just let him. You know, if

157
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: you have to move on from Tyron Smith, I get it.

158
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 7: You had a great career. Sorry that injuries limited a

159
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,679
Speaker 7: lot of your work, but I was in my mind

160
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 7: I was moved on. I said, okay, now, if you

161
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 7: want to try and a dress the guard spot, we'll

162
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 7: do that. But Tyler Smith to me was my left

163
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 7: tackle going forward.

164
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 4: I'm gonna throw the text out here. Actually it was

165
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 4: a really interesting text. You guys can also hit us

166
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 4: on our text line anytime during the show eight one seven,

167
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 4: two nine zero three two nine eight. This one comes

168
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 4: from Brian in North Carolina. He said, at this stage

169
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 4: of his career, why hasn't Tyron Smith been considered as

170
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 4: a swing tackle? Considering his history with injuries, It would

171
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 4: seem to extend his career and solve one issue. Tyler

172
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 4: Smith can move to left tackle, he dog at to

173
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 4: left guards. What are your thoughts.

174
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 5: I actually floated that idea a few times last year

175
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 5: on Talking Cowboys, and I'm right there. I think at

176
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 5: this point in his career, you're asking a lot of

177
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 5: Tyron Smith to take on the bulk of the workload

178
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 5: that comes with being your starting left tackle, and then

179
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 5: that leads to durability issues once you get to October, November,

180
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 5: most certainly December. So I think you should shrink his

181
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 5: workload and you put Tyler Smith because and I'm right

182
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 5: there with Brian in the aspect of I hadn't mentally

183
00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 5: completely moved on from Tyron being well, from Tyler being

184
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 5: the possible left guard, whatever the case may be. But

185
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 5: I do feel in my heart of heart that Tyler

186
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 5: Smith is your future at left tackle period, regardless of

187
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 5: him playing left guard this season. Tyler Smith is your

188
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 5: future at left tackle. So with that being my belief,

189
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,439
Speaker 5: I'm one hundred percent on board with shrinking the workload

190
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 5: for Tyron Smith, because you know, he is one. He's

191
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 5: still one of the best left tackles in the game

192
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 5: when he's on the field, But if you keep exposing

193
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 5: him to additional snaps, then you're possibly shrinking the amount

194
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 5: of playing time you're going to get from him anyway,

195
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 5: which then at the end of the season might not

196
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 5: be any more reps than he would have gotten at

197
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 5: swing tackle. But now maybe you've missed him for a

198
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 5: particular critical game or something like that. So yeah, I

199
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 5: love that.

200
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 2: He wasn't particularly great at right tackle. Yeah, that's the

201
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 2: problem you'll.

202
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 7: Run into last year when you start to talk about

203
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 7: the swing tackle position. You know, Tyrann Smith is a

204
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 7: left tackle, even though he came into his you know,

205
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 7: into the Dallas Cowboys, he started as a right tackle.

206
00:09:55,679 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 7: But the combination of him and Zach Martin together, which

207
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 7: I thought was going to be outstanding, wasn't that outstanding?

208
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 7: You know, there was there were problems in the running game,

209
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 7: there were there were some things with combination blocks that

210
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 7: they had problems with. You know, he talked to Zach

211
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 7: Martin about Steele. He'll tell you the first thing he

212
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 7: loves about Steele. He knows exactly where he's going to be.

213
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 7: He knows exactly how he's going to fit. You know,

214
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,439
Speaker 7: there was so much of that uncertainty when you watched

215
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,439
Speaker 7: Tyron Smith and Zach Martin played next to each other.

216
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 7: Now as a swing tackle, yeah, he might have to

217
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 7: play some right tackle in the game. If you know that,

218
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 7: you're probably not going to get the best at right tackle,

219
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 7: but you're going to get an outstanding left tackle. Yeah,

220
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,679
Speaker 7: it's worth it's worth the thought to try and do that.

221
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 7: But I know in my mind I had moved on.

222
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 7: I just felt like, hey, this is this is We've

223
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,839
Speaker 7: seen it now. Tyler Smith has proved to me he's

224
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 7: more than capable of handling the right left tackle spot.

225
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 7: Let's move on, Let's kind of try and develop some

226
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 7: others at some other spots.

227
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 8: I just don't understand how he himself as a human, yes,

228
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 8: can just keep going. I mean, at some point, your body,

229
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 8: I'm I'm sure it's gonna hurt every time you wake

230
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 8: up and get up.

231
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 6: I mean we see him on game day looking like

232
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 6: a machine. Well yeah, clearly, but but.

233
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 8: Just him for his own personal health and what's in

234
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 8: his rest of his life as a civilian, moving past

235
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 8: whenever that time comes from football. It's just it's just

236
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 8: tough on his body. So it's just it amazes me

237
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 8: because me being a lot more naive to the game,

238
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 8: when I first started working here and learning all that,

239
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 8: I was ready to move on from him long time ago.

240
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 8: Little did I know how great he was when he

241
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 8: was healthy. And he's been here for like five years,

242
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:56,359
Speaker 8: seven years since I made those comments initially, So it's impressive.

243
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 8: But at some point you gotta move on from like

244
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 8: being always have that thought in the back of your mind,

245
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,680
Speaker 8: in the back of your head, can he get hurt?

246
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 8: Is he going to be available this week or next week?

247
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 8: So it's just for the whole coaching staff. But I agree,

248
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 8: I definitely that idea sounds really good ideally, But then

249
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 8: I wonder, I mean, I would assume they've thought of that, sure,

250
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 8: so I would I wonder why it has held them

251
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 8: to more decisions that they've.

252
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,839
Speaker 7: What's what's really interesting is you're not going to see

253
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 7: a prettier football player built wise than Tyron Smith.

254
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 4: He's one of those guys gets off the bus first, right.

255
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 7: There are guys that are sloppy and you know, don't

256
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 7: look great and they don't miss a beat.

257
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 2: And then you have a guy that looks like he

258
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 2: hung out with the Romans. You know that he was gladiator. Yeah,

259
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 2: that he was like beating.

260
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 7: You know, he was in the arena, you know, and

261
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 7: just mauling people with that body.

262
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,439
Speaker 2: Even the way he walks like he just walked.

263
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 7: The way he moves, You're thinking, can sloppy guy doesn't

264
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 7: miss a game and this guy has injury history problems.

265
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 7: That's the thing that blows scouts away. You could sit

266
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 7: there like, oh, great body, great physique.

267
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 2: He's always hurt though, Brian, He's always hurt, you know.

268
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 2: And now you're going, oh no.

269
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 7: You're right, availability lack of You can look great, but

270
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 7: if you're not always available, it doesn't matter how damn

271
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 7: good you look.

272
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 5: I think, And to talk to your point Amber about

273
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 5: why from a Tyron Smith perspective, where is the event

274
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 5: horizon and him looking in the mirror and saying, you

275
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 5: know what, I still got a lot left in the tank,

276
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 5: but I might need to change, I might need to

277
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 5: be willing to go back up.

278
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:43,719
Speaker 9: Bro.

279
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 5: I don't think that's entirely dissimilar from.

280
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 2: He played really well though, has he the first couple

281
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 2: he was. I mean, he's kind of turned back the

282
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 2: clock a little bit.

283
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 4: But you also, in the back of your mind kept thinking.

284
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 2: You're ready, You're ready for the other shoot. Yeah, you're mad.

285
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 2: You have to think like you don't even want to

286
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 2: talk about it.

287
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 7: You know, You're like Tyron Smith, it's good, but just

288
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 7: nod your head like, yeah, you don't even want to

289
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 7: talk about him because you just wanted to keep going

290
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 7: to your point.

291
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 2: I mean, that's That's where I'm at with him.

292
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,839
Speaker 7: I'm like, he actually did turn back the clock playing

293
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 7: left tackle to the point where I'm like, Okay, I

294
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 7: can see why he came back. I see why they

295
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 7: did what they did. But then now this thing hits

296
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 7: you where now it's been any problems since his days

297
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 7: at USC, Well draft him when he's like twenty twenty

298
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 7: one years old, right, it's been a long time. You know,

299
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 7: we're dealing with that thing again.

300
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 2: I just think it's mean.

301
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 5: If Tyron Smith was willing and the coaches were willing

302
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 5: to put him in a backup capacity, you instantly have

303
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 5: the best backup tackle in the league instantly, and you're

304
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 5: also helping his durability. But I think from an athlete's perspective,

305
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 5: and I'll speak from an athlete's perspective and a competitive mindset,

306
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 5: it's it's not entirely different from you look at a

307
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 5: shutdown corner like a Darrell Reeves or Woodson, and at

308
00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 5: a certain point in their career, they really did look

309
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 5: in the mirror and say, you know what, my body's changed.

310
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 5: I can't run the same that I was running. I

311
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 5: can't cut the same that I was cutting. In what

312
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 5: they do, they drop back to safety and tried their

313
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 5: hand in safety so you have to be willing to

314
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 5: look in the mirror and just be honest with yourself.

315
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 5: We talked about self awareness this week. It's just honesty.

316
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 5: So can Tyron Smith be still play at high level

317
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 5: when he's on the field apps of freakolutely? He can,

318
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 5: but the time has come for maybe him to just

319
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 5: admit that his body can't take the.

320
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 2: Workload as of a starter.

321
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 5: So you can still contribute to this team and help

322
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 5: this team possibly win the super Bowl, but maybe not

323
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 5: in the capacity that you will want to. So then

324
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 5: you got to think about what needs to be done,

325
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 5: and maybe that's what needs to be done.

326
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 4: All right, we're gonna take our first break when we

327
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,400

Speaker 10: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

332
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 10: cheatah Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought

333
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 10: online was reliable. And now Todd is trying to be

334
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 10: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty moiles para.

335
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 10: But the good news is Todd has at and T

Speaker 10: five G. It is fast, reliable and secure, and he

337
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 10: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

338
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,680

390
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 4: All right, so here's we're gonna do. I want to

391
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 4: talk about this Dallas defense versus the New England offense.

392
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 2: Brian.

393
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 4: One thing I noticed and looking at this team is

394
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 4: right now, they are ranked ninth in total offense with

395
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 4: seven hundred and forty eight yards. It's about two hundred

396
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 4: and fifty little hundred hundred fifty yards per game. Here's

397
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:48,439
Speaker 4: the interesting thing. They're only twenty six though in points scored,

398
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 4: averaging about seventeen points per game. Talk to me about

399
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 4: this defense, I mean, this offense and why it's having

400
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 4: problems scoring.

401
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 7: It is having problems, and a lot of it has

402
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 7: to do with the offensive line. They have some issues

403
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 7: up front. But I'll get to that point as we go.

404
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 7: You know me, I gotta ramble on here. So Bill

405
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 7: O'Brien's your offensive coordinator. He's the guy used to be

406
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 7: at the Houston Texans. He was at University Alabama and

407
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 7: as matter of fact, he was Mac jones coach at Alabama,

408
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 7: and so they're back together here. There is with this

409
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 7: offensive group, there's going to be some movement with the

410
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 7: way they play, but it's not anything that's alarming. We've

411
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,439
Speaker 7: seen those like Arizonas and stuff. All the movement that

412
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 7: they play with the motions and stuff. It's just they're

413
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 7: pretty stationary the way they play. The majority of their

414
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 7: snaps are playing the shotgun rather than under center. The

415
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 7: line will really struggle to protect this guy. They get

416
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 7: pressured quite a bit. They break down, They have some problems.

417
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 7: Their best when they can run the football and try

418
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 7: and help Mac Jones. Where they run the ball, the

419
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 7: best is when you watch them is off the left side.

420
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 7: So that'd be once again the Cowboys, right. You need

421
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:55,439
Speaker 7: to kind of shore up some of the problems that

422
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 7: you dealt with in the Arizona game. I mean, they're

423
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 7: probably looking at that like, Okay, let's run it, Sam Williams,

424
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 7: Let's run at Armstrong. Let's run who's ever playing right

425
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 7: in for the Cowboys over there? You know, Let's see

426
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 7: if their linebackers can flow. Let's see if the safeties

427
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 7: will take a good angle. So if they're looking at

428
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 7: the Cowboys, their their strength of their ability to run

429
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,880
Speaker 7: the football would be to your right side.

430
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 2: That's inside and out.

431
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 7: They're they're they're a lot better too, in just a

432
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 7: little bit of study when they when they face teams

433
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 7: that play that light box. So if you're a six,

434
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,120
Speaker 7: you know, defenders or fewer, that's when they really they

435
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 7: thrive running the ball, and that's when Ezekiel Elliott is

436
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 7: actually at his best. But this group has not been

437
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 7: very good. When you play with seven or eight in

438
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,120
Speaker 7: the box or more, that's been a problem for them

439
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 7: running the football.

440
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 2: Uh I mentioned mac Jones.

441
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 7: I think the growth of mac Jones as a quarterback

442
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 7: has been slowed by the issues the club's gone through

443
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 7: with their coordinators. You know, they've tried different coordinators. I

444
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 7: don't think he's been able to grow and really flourished.

445
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 7: You know, we'll see what with Bill op Ryan could

446
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 7: do with him.

447
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 2: Now.

448
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,639
Speaker 7: He doesn't have the strongest arm and he doesn't have

449
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 7: the best mobility, but he is capable when it comes

450
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 7: to navigating the pocket and then order to deliver the ball.

451
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 7: He's his biggest trade is his toughness because he gets

452
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 7: hit quite a bit when he goes back to throw

453
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 7: the football. Uh, he'll deliver the ball in the face

454
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 7: of pressure. There's snaps where it take. He takes some

455
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 7: big hits as he's you know, throwing the ball. These

456
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 7: receivers really struggle to get open. That goes back to

457
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 7: the biggest problem. While there's not scoring points, he doesn't

458
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 7: throw to a lot of open receivers, and he doesn't

459
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 7: throw to a lot of wide open receivers. That's another

460
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 7: thing that's been an issue for them. He's constantly under pressure.

461
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 7: He you know, he just doesn't play the game with

462
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 7: a lot of rhythm. You know, sometimes these quarterbacks get

463
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 7: back there and it's pass pass pass. You can watch

464
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 7: two of play in Miami, and it just seems to

465
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 7: be a rhythm the way that he plays, the way

466
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 7: the ball's out. You know, there's some continuity to their

467
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 7: offense and stuff like that. I mentioned there the running backs,

468
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 7: it's Ezekiel elliet It and then it's also with Stevenson

469
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 7: are the two primary backs that they play with Zeke.

470
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 2: We know him.

471
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 7: He's still gonna run with toughness. He's still gonna run

472
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 7: with power. He's still but he doesn't have that elusiveness

473
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 7: that he you know, I mean, he's lost that ability.

474
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 7: The ball is going to come down hill. He's not

475
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,360
Speaker 7: going to make many miss but you know, his best

476
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 7: attempts were the ones when they tossed him the ball

477
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 7: when they said, okay, we're going to get you out

478
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 7: on the edge and let you try and run down hill.

479
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 7: You know, the TOAs sweeps and stuff like I said,

480
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 7: go into the offense's left defense is right, We're some

481
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 7: good plays for him. He splits time with Stevenson to it.

482
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 7: He's not These guys aren't the most nifty types of backs,

483
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 7: but they're really steady in the way that they play.

484
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 7: They're going to run with toughness, they're going to run

485
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,480
Speaker 7: with determination. The numbers that now he is where Zeke

486
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 7: might struggle with the stack boxes, Stevenson is better versus

487
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 7: the stack boxes, so.

488
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 2: Keep an eye on that.

489
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,919
Speaker 7: He's also really a good receiver catching the ball out

490
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 7: of the backfield. Quarter back as of ninety point nine

491
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 7: rating throwing him the football and you can see it

492
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,360
Speaker 7: on tape when it's the swings and screens and.

493
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:07,120
Speaker 2: Stuff like that.

494
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,399
Speaker 7: And by the way, he's the only running back with

495
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 7: a rushing touchdown to their credits. So the wide receivers,

496
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 7: it's a veteran group. Kendrick Born, Juju Smith, Schuster, and

497
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 7: Devonte Parker. There's nothing really wow about this group. There's

498
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 7: nothing that you know. It's there's some inconsistency in the

499
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,400
Speaker 7: way they receive. I mentioned they don't create a lot

500
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 7: of separation. They don't get open a lot. The offense

501
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 7: makes some kind of stationary target targets. You're going to

502
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 7: see them run picks, rubs, they're going to run combination

503
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 7: routes to try and get that separation. But there's been problems.

504
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 7: When they get the separation, the protection falls apart, and

505
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 7: now they're in a little bit of some trouble that way.

506
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 7: So their best most explosive player is a rookie named

507
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 7: Demario Douglas out of Liberty, and he's the one guy

508
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,119
Speaker 7: that when they want to when they want to play

509
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 7: like an explode, those that play, he's the guy they

510
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 7: throw the ball. He's got seven receptions this year form

511
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 7: are for first downs, so rookie kind of getting involved.

512
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 2: He's kind of a.

513
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 7: Speedy, twitchy kind of player with the ball in his hands.

514
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 7: At tight end, this is the best group that they

515
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 7: have as far as how they're going to try and

516
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 7: and get offense. Hunter Henry and Mike Gisiki are the

517
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,640
Speaker 7: two tight ends. They're both super reliable. They both they

518
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,919
Speaker 7: run these routes where they find they do combinations like

519
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 7: we were talking about, where they they work off each other.

520
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 7: They run the spot route just easy throw, they run

521
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 7: the out easy throw, they'll curl back inside easy throw.

522
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 2: That's kind of how.

523
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 7: They play with with with Daniel Jones, They're trying to

524
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,239
Speaker 7: make it as easy as possible for him even when

525
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 7: they're covered. These guys are ultra reliable when it comes

526
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 7: to their hands and the ability to get in situations

527
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 7: where they can make plays. When things get a little

528
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 7: harry in the pocket, that's kind of where.

529
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 2: The ball is going to go.

530
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 7: It's going to go to one of those those tight

531
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 7: end decent blockers. Nothing really great, they're not going to

532
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 7: blow you away, but this is the most productive group

533
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 7: that they have on their offense. Now we'll get to

534
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 7: the offensive line. This is the weakness of their deal

535
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 7: here right now. They're not a physical run group. They

536
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 7: struggle with pass protection. They've tried to use draft picks

537
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 7: in order to kind of supplement their line. But these

538
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 7: young guys aren't ready to play, and I mean they're

539
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 7: not ready to play because they're not playing, they're going

540
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 7: with the group. The majority of their group has been

541
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 7: made up of trades or free agent signings. The biggest

542
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 7: struggles this year have been at the tackle spot, where

543
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 7: they've rotated. Trent Brown, Anderson, and Verderian Lowe are the

544
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,439
Speaker 7: guys that they kind of rotate. Low has been the

545
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 7: one that struggled the most. He lines up at left

546
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,479
Speaker 7: tackle against the Dolphins. He plays right tackle against the Jets.

547
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 7: He doesn't have power, he doesn't have strength. He physically

548
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,199
Speaker 7: can't hold up when you hit him. He tends to

549
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 7: become a one legged football player. He gets noted back

550
00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 7: quite a bit. You'll observe him getting pushed giving ground

551
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 7: playing on one leg. You have to take advantage of

552
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 7: him in the game. If he's in that he works

553
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,120
Speaker 7: number fifty nine. They might not play him. If Trent

554
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 7: Brown's healthy and Anderson are healthy, those could be your

555
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 7: two starters. But if Low gets in the game, that's

556
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 7: the guy you need to go after because he can't

557
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:17,439
Speaker 7: handle it.

558
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 2: He really just can't.

559
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 7: And that's been a big, big problem the guard inside.

560
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,719
Speaker 7: Cole Strange was a first round pick for them. He

561
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,640
Speaker 7: could be a little bit of a liability right now.

562
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 7: Like Low, he really doesn't deal with power.

563
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:31,160
Speaker 2: All that well.

564
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 6: You need you need.

565
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,159
Speaker 7: He needs to develop a little bit. He's just a

566
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 7: young guy, that's the biggest problem. He's a fighter, a battler,

567
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 7: but he's limited in the way he's blocking right now.

568
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 7: He's just not a very strong guy, and so what

569
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 7: happens is he's going to get challenged throughout the game.

570
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 7: I would not be surprised, like I say, if Low

571
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 7: is at one of the tackle spots, you work off him.

572
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,640
Speaker 2: But maybe you see Micah play a little bit more.

573
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 7: Inside and dealing with with Cole Strange the guard.

574
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 2: He's the left guard. You need to go after him.

575
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 7: He's been limited a little bit with a knee injury

576
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 7: this week in practice, so that might be you know,

577
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 7: he's not getting the reps, he's not getting the work,

578
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 7: and he might be a little bit compromised as a blocker.

579
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 2: So we take advantage of this.

580
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 7: New England offense is on the offensive line, and that's

581
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 7: one of the reasons why they're struggling. They don't have

582
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 7: explosive players, so they don't score points. They got steady

583
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 7: tight end players, they got a quarterback that takes a beating,

584
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,159
Speaker 7: and their offensive line is a little bit of a

585
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:24,880
Speaker 7: mess right now.

586
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,360
Speaker 4: Sounds like offense is not what they do well.

587
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,360
Speaker 7: Nope, they play really good defense and they're really good

588
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,160
Speaker 7: on special teams. They figure out special teams for you too.

589
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,679
Speaker 4: One of the things I did notice though, is against

590
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 4: the Jets last week, they rushed for one hundred and

591
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 4: fifty seven yards. Now, in the two weeks previous to that,

592
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,160
Speaker 4: they only had seventy six rushing yards against Philly eighty

593
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:45,439
Speaker 4: eight against Miami. What did they do different against the

594
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 4: Jets or did they do better against the Jets?

595
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 2: I think you d better for a better rushing day.

596
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 7: I think that we might be overrating the Jets run

597
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 7: defense a little bit here, you know, with the way

598
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 7: we've thought that they played with that wide nine we

599
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 7: were talking about, people are finding ways to kind of

600
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,639
Speaker 7: gap them little bit and it hit them like I

601
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,360
Speaker 7: said the ball, the ball was the ball was out

602
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,399
Speaker 7: on the edge quite a bit. That's where I noticed,

603
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:09,439
Speaker 7: like the tos sweeps and the stuff where they were

604
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 7: trying to get the ball to the outside. And you know,

605
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 7: but I think the Jets are a little suptible to

606
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 7: what's going on with their run defense right now. The

607
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,159
Speaker 7: New England did a good job. They stuck with the

608
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 7: running game too. I think they put they I think

609
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 7: Bill O'Brien puts this quarterback in some bad situations.

610
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 2: Now he might they might.

611
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 7: Try the plan of saying, Okay, Dallas is struggling with

612
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 7: the run a little bit in the first half. They

613
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 7: struggle with the run. Let's test them. Let's see if

614
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 7: they've fixed any kind of issues that they have, because

615
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 7: if they don't, I could see them continually.

616
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 2: I didn't see a lot of pin and pull.

617
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 7: I did see some counter movement and stuff like that,

618
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 7: but it wasn't something like Arizona where you're just every

619
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 7: time it's down, down, around, down around, you know.

620
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 2: You know, I didn't see a lot of that with

621
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 2: New England. But that's not me.

622
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 7: That's not to say that they won't try something like that.

623
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 7: They won't try counters I do think they're going to

624
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 7: try and make you play in space a little bit

625
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 7: and see if you're able to. You know, are you

626
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 7: going to rush up the field? Are you going to

627
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 7: create gaps? Are you going to you know, not play

628
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 7: the scheme like it needs to play. Are you gonna

629
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 7: play like play hero Ball where you're overrunning plays and stuff.

630
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 2: It'll be a test in that regard, and.

631
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 4: Probably more than any team in the league. I think

632
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 4: Bill Belichick is shown over the years he wants a

633
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 4: team that's extremely versatile, that can do different things every week.

634
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 4: So just the fact that we haven't seen those penn

635
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 4: and pulls and those kinds of things that Arizona did

636
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 4: doesn't mean when you're playing a Bill Belichick ring that

637
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 4: all of a sudden they see an opportunity and they

638
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 4: won't exploit it and do some things that maybe they

639
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 4: haven't done all season, because that's just the way he coaches.

640
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 4: Offensively and defensively. They try to create, they try to

641
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 4: take advantage of what you cannot do, and they'll change

642
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 4: every week to try to do that.

643
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 7: They morph into different things defensively. I know the one

644
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 7: thing one of my dear friends is Mike Lombardi who

645
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 7: works who worked with New England the Patriots, a former

646
00:29:57,400 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 7: general manager.

647
00:29:58,320 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 2: The one thing Mike.

648
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 7: Always told me about Bell is though he will save

649
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 7: something that you haven't seen, he will save something too.

650
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 7: And the great example is that is in that Super

651
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 7: Bowl game when they played coverage, you know, on the

652
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 7: gold line against Seattle, and all of a sudden, it's

653
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 7: something they hadn't shown. They knew to practice it, but

654
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,719
Speaker 7: they didn't, you know, they didn't show it, and then

655
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 7: all of a sudden you play it. But he's there's

656
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 7: something that you know, there's a first half game plan,

657
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 7: and there's a second half game plan for Belichick, and

658
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 7: he's going to try and find something that you're not

659
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 7: very good at and take advantage of that, like the

660
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 7: But we'll see if the offensive line can execute penn

661
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 7: and pulls well. That that will be the big test

662
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,479
Speaker 7: for these guys because they may not they might not

663
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 7: be able to upfront, but if you get them into

664
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 7: a passing game, that's that's church for them. They that

665
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 7: that is a struggle for them to have to deal

666
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 7: with that kind of constant pressure.

667
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 2: They just don't hold up as a unit very well.

668
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 5: And I was going to say, what makes their their

669
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 5: weak spot that much weaker is Cold Strange is dealing

670
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 5: with a knee injury. He's dealing with the knee injury

671
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 5: last week. He was limited yesterday in practice. So you

672
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 5: talk about Cold Strange having issue with strength and keeping

673
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 5: his feet and keeping his anchor, Well, he's on a

674
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 5: bad wheel right now. So this is a matchup where

675
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 5: it's their weakness, their biggest weakness against the Cowboys biggest

676
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 5: strength their offensive line versus the Cowboys defensive line. And

677
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 5: then what they'll do is they'll try to use Ramondre

678
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 5: Stevenson because he's also effective as a pass catcher out

679
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 5: of the backfield. They'll try to use him to try

680
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 5: to alleviate some of that pressure keep the defensive line

681
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 5: playing honest. So linebacker speed Cowboys and the linebackers are

682
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 5: going to have to make sure they keep Stevenson bottled up.

683
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 5: Ezekiel Elliott, you know what you get from Ezekiel Elliott.

684
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 5: He was in this organization. Mike McCarthy coached him. You

685
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 5: know what you're getting there. He's not the home run

686
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 5: hitter that he once was. He's the downhill guy. He's

687
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 5: not going to do too much in space, but keep

688
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 5: an eye on Stevenson and how they try to use

689
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 5: him in those bubbles and flats and screens to try

690
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 5: to help the offensive line.

691
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 2: But you can't.

692
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 5: They're not going to screen themselves all the way to

693
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 5: a win. So you bottle up a couple of those.

694
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 5: Make the offense play that much more, honestly, make their

695
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 5: run plays go through the A and B gaps and then.

696
00:31:58,600 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 2: Need tee off.

697
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 9: At that point we're going to.

698
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 2: Take our final break.

699
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 4: We will come back. I have a couple questions for

700
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 4: you guys about this Cowboys defense. Well day when we

701
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 4: come ba Dallas Cowboys dot Com.

702
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 10: Rady Todd thought it would be secure to jog in

703
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 10: the cheatah Savannah. Todd believed the big cat repellent he

704
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 10: bought online was reliable. And now Todd is trying to

705
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 10: be faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles

706
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 10: per hour. But the good news is Todd has at

707
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 10: and T five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure,

708
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 10: and he learned the best thing to do is stop

709
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 10: running and toss her the backpack with the beef stew

710
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:33,240

755
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 4: at the Star. All Right, here's the question I have

756
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 4: for you, guys. This is a bigger picture question about

757
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 4: the defense. What we saw last weekend, we don't think

758
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 4: is typical of what we've seen from this defense in

759
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 4: a lot of instances over the last couple of years. Really,

760
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 4: do you think that was a situation where they were

761
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 4: exposed or do you think it was just one bad game?

762
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:11,280
Speaker 2: What do you think? Amber?

763
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 8: I mean, you've had hints of their and we've talked

764
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 8: to this about this over and over as far as

765
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 8: like the run defense and the issues that they had.

766
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,320
Speaker 8: That's exactly why they went out and drafted Mossy Smith

767
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 8: in the first round and why you resigned Jonathan Hankins

768
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 8: back on the team.

769
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 6: So they know they're well aware of that.

770
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 8: I think, yes, they were exposed in Yeah, if we

771
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 8: do this, just watch this game against the Cardinals.

772
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 6: If we do this to.

773
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 8: You, you'll react this way. But at the same time,

774
00:35:54,000 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 8: I think that the drive, the passion, the commitment from

775
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 8: the defensive players. Dan Quinn is there, So it's like,

776
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 8: I don't expect them to make this a trend. I

777
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 8: expect them to get better. They got better in the

778
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 8: second half after halftime. They came back and those yards

779
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 8: went down tremendously. It went down to like forty forty something,

780
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 8: so very different than the first half. So at least

781
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 8: that gives me hope that, Okay, they're still able to

782
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 8: make changes, adapt and figure out, okay, let's change the

783
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 8: game plan lest readjust so, I don't think it'll be

784
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 8: something that now teams are just gonna expose them every week.

785
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 8: I think they'll come back here, like they've said, reassess

786
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,600
Speaker 8: and rework and according to Micah Parsons, they figure out

787
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 8: exactly what they need to do according.

788
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 6: To what he said this week.

789
00:36:57,040 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 8: So yes, I don't think the run defense is going

790
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 8: to be fixed overnight.

791
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 6: There'll be instances where.

792
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 8: You get a good running back or a good quarterback

793
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 8: that can run with the ball, because that's the times

794
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 8: that they seem to kind of struggle with those mobile quarterbacks,

795
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,720
Speaker 8: and they'll have those games where they do give up yards.

796
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:21,240
Speaker 8: But I think they'll be able to figure something out

797
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:24,000
Speaker 8: and adapt and adjust to where now they're not being

798
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 8: completely killed by that.

799
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 5: I think they bounced back. I don't think this run

800
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 5: defense is broken. I've seen them excel in the first

801
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 5: two weeks, and I think because going into last week's game,

802
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 5: I thought that they would be emotionally charged after losing

803
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:39,439
Speaker 5: Treyvon Diggs, but you add Digs to the late week

804
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 5: injuries to Beadish and Tyron Smith and Zach Martin's now

805
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 5: playing now, And then we talked about how with seventy

806
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 5: seven the game started kind of on a weird note.

807
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 5: It felt like they were emotionally exhausted as opposed to

808
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 5: being emotionally charged, and Michael Parson spoke to that. Jaron

809
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 5: Kurr spoke to that and basically said that they were

810
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 5: disappointed with the effort. And it sounds like, if you

811
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 5: read between the lines, last week took a lot out

812
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 5: of them emotionally, so coming into this game having been

813
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,320
Speaker 5: beaten in the fashion that they were beating in Arizona

814
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 5: because they were bullied in Arizona. But this is a

815
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 5: locker room that takes pride in being the bully, right.

816
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,399
Speaker 5: I think they look at the Patriots team as they're

817
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 5: a very real opportunity to remind everyone that hey we

818
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 5: can stop the run, Hey we can get after this quarterback.

819
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 5: We can still take the ball away without Treyvon Diggs

820
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,839
Speaker 5: on the field. So I get the sense that they're

821
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 5: gonna you know, there's a great likelihood that they bounce

822
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 5: back in the run defense. Give the Cardinals credit, they

823
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,719
Speaker 5: put some good stuff on film as far as any

824
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,720
Speaker 5: opposition that's looking to attack the Dallas Cowboys run defense.

825
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 5: But if you go back and look at that film,

826
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 5: what you see is a lessened effort. What you see

827
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 5: is miscues and you know, lack of communication. You talked

828
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 5: about Michael Parsons looking back at the Green Dot Lve

829
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 5: and being like, where am I supposed to go?

830
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 2: Where am I here?

831
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 5: I don't think you see those things coming into this

832
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 5: Patriots game.

833
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 2: They got exposed.

834
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 7: They got exposed, and you got exposed to the point

835
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 7: that they don't play very good run defense on the edge.

836
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,720
Speaker 2: And that's a problem. You know. That to me, that's

837
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 2: you know, when when you when things when.

838
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 7: You watch the Cowboys and there's misdirection and there's they

839
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,480
Speaker 7: play with your eye level and they send you one

840
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 7: way and bring the ball back the other and they

841
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,760
Speaker 7: you know, to me, running the running the ball inside

842
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:17,960
Speaker 7: on this group is not a good way to travel

843
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 7: if you're an offense. But if you're going to be

844
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 7: willing to get up the field and take yourself out

845
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 7: of position and that you're able to like get guys

846
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 7: up on the second level, uh, because of you know,

847
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,399
Speaker 7: some of the things that the Cardinals were.

848
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:33,799
Speaker 2: Able to do.

849
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 7: That The problem to me is, I worry. I worry

850
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 7: about the linebacker. We talked about the linebacker group. We

851
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,360
Speaker 7: talked about Clark, we talked about Van der Esch, you know,

852
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 7: we talked about Wilson coming back. You know, we talked

853
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 7: about Curse. You know, these guys are you know, these

854
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 7: these guys have to play better. And if I'm a

855
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,880
Speaker 7: football team that's playing the Cowboys, and I'm going to

856
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,360
Speaker 7: find a way to see if i can run the

857
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,400
Speaker 7: ball in the edges with you, I'm not messing with

858
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 7: that inside stuff. I can't run the ball there. I'm

859
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,359
Speaker 7: not going to make a living doing that. But I'm

860
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 7: gonna infect your eye level. I'm gonna move lineman, and

861
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 7: I'm gonna see if you could play the ball on

862
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 7: the edge, and if you can then I will find

863
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 7: something else to do. I'll probably lose the game. But

864
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 7: you've shown me that I have an opportunity to have

865
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,319
Speaker 7: success doing it, and so that's that's what I'm going

866
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 7: to take advantage of.

867
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 4: But hasn't didn't the fact that they were able to

868
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 4: make the stops in the second half, as you mentioned, Danber,

869
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 4: doesn't that suggest that they're capable of doing it. They

870
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,319
Speaker 4: have the players to do it, they have the right

871
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 4: scheme to do it. It's just whether they're committed to

872
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 4: doing it, which would make it feel less like they

873
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 4: were exposed and more like they had a bad first

874
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,359
Speaker 4: half they cinched it all up and by the second

875
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 4: half they way they.

876
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 7: Tried if they should Arizona, if Arizona would have come

877
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 7: back and ran the ball off the edge, I think

878
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 7: the more majority of they were trying to get the

879
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 7: ball with Connor. They were trying to kind of find

880
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 7: some ways to work inside because they hadn't had some

881
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 7: success to it that. So I think the way that

882
00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 7: the game flowed that was more inside run.

883
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 4: So you think it was less about the Cowboys adjustments.

884
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:07,799
Speaker 4: And if I.

885
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,879
Speaker 7: Was if I was Arizona, I would have I would

886
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,799
Speaker 7: have I would have kept read optioning you until you

887
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 7: figured something out. I think there were some times where

888
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 7: that when you know that when Dobbs he handed it inside,

889
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 7: where if he'd just taken it, maybe it's a.

890
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 2: Little bit better game.

891
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 7: I'm not saying it would have broke a run like

892
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,879
Speaker 7: he broke the forty four yard run, but it might

893
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 7: have been a six seven yard run instead of gaining

894
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 7: one or two handing the ball inside. I'm gonna I'm

895
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 7: going to I'm going to challenge you. If I'm an offense,

896
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 7: I'm going to challenge the Cowboys defense, you know, to

897
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,240
Speaker 7: play with better discipline, you know, to play with better

898
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:45,359
Speaker 7: eye level, to play not to get fool. I'm gonna

899
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 7: play with you, to play your gaps. You know, there's

900
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 7: there's there's a lot of really good things about this defense,

901
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 7: how aggressive it is. But when you start to overrun

902
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 7: plays and you take yourself out of opportunities to make

903
00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 7: plays because your angles and things like that, I'm going

904
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,400
Speaker 7: to see if I'm going to see if you've really fixed.

905
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 2: That one thing I said.

906
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 5: There was something that Michael Parson said yesterday that yesterday

907
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 5: that really jumped out at me. Go back to the

908
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:13,360
Speaker 5: Josh Dobbs play option and Josh goes up to the

909
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 5: left side for forty four yards. Well, Michael Parson has

910
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 5: made a note to bring that out in the interview yesterday,

911
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:22,240
Speaker 5: and he said on that particular play, he was basing

912
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 5: what he thought Dobbs would do on the propensity of

913
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 5: what NFL quarterbacks typically do and the ball, so he

914
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,840
Speaker 5: was playing what he thought Dobbs would do as opposed

915
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,879
Speaker 5: to playing what Dobbs was actually doing. So he said

916
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 5: he owned that, and he said going forward, I just

917
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 5: need to play football, play what's right in front of

918
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 5: me instead of playing what I think is going down.

919
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,399
Speaker 4: And the interesting part is they did try the read

920
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 4: option multiple times later in the game. The difference was

921
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 4: and I remember one specifically I'm thinking of right now.

922
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 4: Micah did exactly what he was supposed to do. He

923
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,000
Speaker 4: read it perfectly. He got he was the open guy,

924
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 4: and he just stopped. He waited to see where are

925
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,200
Speaker 4: we going to go? And then as he saw to

926
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 4: play go job Dobbs read that. Dob said, I won't

927
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 4: have the free release to the outside. He hands the

928
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:09,080
Speaker 4: ball off the rest of the defense then makes the tackle,

929
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,600
Speaker 4: and I think that's the point that makes me think

930
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 4: that again, I think they got taken advantage of in

931
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:17,799
Speaker 4: this last game because they didn't come in and whether

932
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 4: you want to call it, they weren't prepared, or they

933
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 4: didn't play with a certain level of intensity they may

934
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 4: played with before, or maybe they were overly aggressive because

935
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 4: they were trying to go get the quarterback versus really

936
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 4: playing the run. Whatever it was in the first half,

937
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 4: I think a lot of that was the fact. I

938
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 4: mean a lot of that ended up resulting in a

939
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:35,840
Speaker 4: half way. They just couldn't stop the run. And I

940
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 4: think that's the part where I look at it and

941
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 4: I want to see what happens this week. Now it'll

942
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:43,920
Speaker 4: be different because right they run more of a traditional

943
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 4: run right at you kind of running style, and that

944
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 4: the Cowboys have done really good at so far.

945
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 2: Absolutely stop.

946
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,320
Speaker 4: So we may not actually see what you want.

947
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:53,759
Speaker 2: To see until you get to a better game. You

948
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:54,839
Speaker 2: don't have better team.

949
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,839
Speaker 8: Too long for a big challenge.

950
00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:01,839
Speaker 6: Here we go after this game. I mean, you got

951
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:02,880
Speaker 6: one coming up.

952
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:07,720
Speaker 5: And then Eagles are not far behind.

953
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,080
Speaker 4: We'll find out, all right, Appreciate you guys, Johnes. We'll

954
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,440
Speaker 4: be back next tomorrow. Actually, we'll be back tomorrow and

955
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 4: we'll wrap this thing up. Let you know what we

956
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 4: think is gonna happen this weekend Cowboys versus Patriots. Till then,
