84
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: I was bound to be a cowboy. That day that

85
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 1: sealed it for growing up in Hamilton Park. I died

86
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: with every loss. I know you did too. Of the

87
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: Kings used to kick our butts before that day, so

88
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: Vikings owned us still high school then I was sixteen, Yes, yeah,

89
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: I was junior junior in high school. Yeah, and uh,

90
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: I hated the Purple people either because they would kick

91
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: out butts every time. And this was the time we

92
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 1: find the guy. You know what kind of did it

93
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 1: kind of in the in the brain of the Vikings

94
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,679
Speaker 1: did it? Did it? Did it? Should it did? Because

95
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: before that was Chuck Foreman and all those guys for

96
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: talking to him. Yeah, they had talent on them. They

97
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: kept going to the Super bowls, kept losing them, kept

98
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: losing them to him. Not as bad as Buffalo, but yeah,

99
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: what hell? Four? It's four depends on if you're a

100
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: Vikings fan or not. Right, well, so good. That's a

101
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: good way to kick off the show. I still fell

102
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: feel the sopha in my nose. All right, Mickey, so

103
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 1: what do you what do you you got? Oh? Wow,

104
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: you got a legal pad full of stuff. You got

105
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 1: papers strewn across the table in front of you. So

106
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: today we'd like to start. Today's the first day that

107
00:06:55,880 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 1: teams without head coaches can ask for permission UH to

108
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: interview assistant coaches in the league. And it's being reported

109
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 1: that Jacksonville has asked permission of the Cowboys for Dan

110
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: Quinn and Kellen Moore UH and also have asked permission

111
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: UH for Doug Peterson, Todd Bowles and Byron Leftwich. Well,

112
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: they don't have to ask permission for for Peter Peterson.

113
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: They just want to interview us. And I think they

114
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: already did brought him because Peterson didn't have a job, right,

115
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: and then Todd Bowles and Byron Leftwich both at Tampa Bay. Right,

116
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 1: So that's kicked off the start. Who's the other team?

117
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: That's there's two teams need to already fired their coaches.

118
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: It was jack it was what Jacksonville and the Raiders Sarraiders,

119
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: that's right. Well, I don't know Besacchi is going to

120
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: get him in the play off. He may he may

121
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: earn that job. Can they interview him? So do we

122
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: have anyone? Do we have any of Dan's disciples? Uh?

123
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: And and I'll get to that and so uh. Quinn

124
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: was asked about it on Monday and his response was,

125
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: I'll be ready if the right scenario presents itself. I

126
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: wasn't coming here to look what my next job would be.

127
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: I wanted to come here and have a blast and

128
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: hopefully kick ass and make an it. Well he's doing that.

129
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 1: So and then Kellen Moore's response on Friday, if the

130
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: opportunity shows up, that would be awesome. But we've got

131
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 1: a lot to take care of with this thing here first.

132
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: So what you would expect the coaches to say? Uh,

133
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy, you know the head coach always it's definitely

134
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 1: well deserving and they're ready, so you embrace that basically, opportunity.

135
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: I think these jobs are hired to get. So that

136
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: was his response on Monday during his media session. Okay,

137
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: and so now what is the process If they want

138
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: they want to interview them, when can they interview them?

139
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: So I read because the process used to be that

140
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: we had to wait until after the season, right, And

141
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: I one of the reports said that for the Cowboy

142
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: coaches that was going to be virtually so somebody in

143
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: to get them away from what's going on. Another thing

144
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 1: that's come from the pandemic where you can just zoom

145
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: an interview and do something face to face, right yea,

146
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: And so they can do that as early as this week.

147
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: They starting today if they get permission, because today's the

148
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,559
Speaker 1: first day. I think we're going to put a game

149
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: plane in today, So we're not going to do We're

150
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: not going to that. But once the hay is in

151
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: the barn, as they say, maybe even Friday, I think

152
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: will approve that. What do you think? So it said

153
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,359
Speaker 1: that they're allowed to ask for permission in weeks seventeen

154
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: and eighteen of the season and then they can didn't

155
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 1: say anything about week nineteen because the way the rule

156
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 1: has been for a team to that point. What the

157
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: rule has been here most recently is a team that

158
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,079
Speaker 1: had a bye in the first round of the playoffs,

159
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: they could interview and an assistant coach could interview during

160
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 1: that week and then but once it got to game week,

161
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: they were And so now what they've changed on the

162
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: rule these last two weeks of the regular season, They're

163
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: going to give them permission to interview for the jobs

164
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: and then they can focus on the taskt brand and

165
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: you would only have one team. That would I mean

166
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: with the old rule, you would have more possibilities, right

167
00:10:54,280 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 1: because there's more teams with buys now with one, which, yeah,

168
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: that would be another reason why they would relax that

169
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: rule cut down the canon. Now. I didn't hear Dan

170
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 1: Quinn's press conference yesterday, but I did see a tweaked

171
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: about that. Something that he said about, uh, he wishes

172
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,239
Speaker 1: they would tweak the rules as far if an assistant

173
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: coach got the head coaching job elsewhere moving on to

174
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: that new position quickly, did he say something about that.

175
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,079
Speaker 1: I don't Okay, maybe he didn't. Don't recall like he

176
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: wants no, no, not not for him personally, but that

177
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: for the rule that a coach could go ahead and

178
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:43,599
Speaker 1: take on his new job before he's done here in

179
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 1: coe like in college. Yeah. For instance, for instance, an

180
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 1: assistant coach, especially Joey MacGuire at Baylor, he was the

181
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,079
Speaker 1: assistant head coach and three weeks left in the season

182
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,319
Speaker 1: he got the Texas Tech job and they let him

183
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: go at that point. Yeah, there was nothing said, there

184
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: was nothing talked about about that. Yeah, okay, and I

185
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 1: think that would be like quitting and taking a college

186
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 1: job before the season's over. What happens all the time?

187
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 1: It happened, It happened here. What's that? What's I don't understand? No,

188
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: that was it happened here, and it was it was

189
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: with the blessing zat They booted them all out, They

190
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 1: showed him the door. I think they pulled some strings

191
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: to get him the job at Oklahoma. But remember we

192
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: talked a week or so ago about Atlanta, right with

193
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: who was it went to Arkansas? Petrino right left his

194
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: staff high and dry there and Zimmer was on that

195
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 1: staff and he was still hot over there. If you ever,

196
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: if you ever look up that interview on YouTube, it's

197
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 1: a good one because he let him have it. The

198
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 1: next year he was okay. You know in on the

199
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: in the at the college level, there's a there's a

200
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 1: real especially with that early signing day. Yeah, there is

201
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: a real reason why a coach needs to get to

202
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: his college job. He's got he's got it, can recruit immediately,

203
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 1: and that's why we saw this year, uh, the colleges

204
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: making firings during the regular season and basically hirings during

205
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: the regular season so that their new coach can hit

206
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: the ground running recruiting. From an NFL standpoint, what is

207
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 1: the advantage I mean, outside of just preparing, you know,

208
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 1: and studying your new roster and being at the Senior

209
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 1: Bowl and uh and so forth, what is the advantage

210
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: of going on to your new job, Because well, I

211
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: would think you want to start putting your staff together, right,

212
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: that would be one. But if guys still are under condy,

213
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 1: I'd still be working in and that would be the

214
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: main reason. Right. But if you had, like for instance,

215
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: in at the college level right now this week, Dan

216
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: Lanning is the new head coach at Oregon, right okay,

217
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 1: And he's been announced as the new head coach at Oregon,

218
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 1: but he is staying as the defensive coordinator at Georgia

219
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: because they're playing in this playoff and he is going

220
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: to be calling the defense that's on Friday for the

221
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: Georgia Bulldogs at their national semifinal game. And so can you.

222
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: There's no reason for the NFL to what said, oh,

223
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: you also has a few guys that are coaching in

224
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: their bowl game and then gonna go out to USC.

225
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, and that's what usually I think they're gone.

226
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: We don't want that, we don't want them around. Um,

227
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to forget his name. Your former quarterback at

228
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: OU that left Missouri. He as the offensive coordinator, Josh Hypel.

229
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: Josh Hypel, he was at Tennessee head coach at Tennessee,

230
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: Missouri played their bowl. Oh yeah, and that happens all

231
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: the time. And he took the tight end coach with it. No,

232
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: he took the other coach with him, and so a

233
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: tight end coach who had never called plays became the

234
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. Right. How do you think that bowl game

235
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 1: turned turn out? You know, you know what happened in

236
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury, who now the Cowboys playing the first no.

237
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: But he went from Texas A and M. He was

238
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator at Texas A and M. Johnny Manzell

239
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: was his quarterback and he got the Texas Tech head

240
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: coaching job. He left before A and M played Oklahoma

241
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: in the Cotton Bowl, and he basically the assistant coaches

242
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 1: were running the show, and it was it was Clarence Shellman,

243
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: who was a running backs coach who was calling plays

244
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 1: and a GA by the name of Riley Dodge, who

245
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 1: was helping him call plays in that Cotton Bowl, which

246
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 1: was a lopsided blowout win for Texas A and m

247
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: Over Oklahoma. It worked out really well for them in

248
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: that game. But to your point, Everson, this Dan Lanning

249
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: staying on at Georgia uh and and already being and

250
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: and being actively the head coach at Oregon is is

251
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: very unusual. And the only time they do it at

252
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: the college level is if you're in the college playoffs.

253
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: I mean, there's these other bowl games are but I

254
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: can't see when you talk about the head coaching job,

255
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: when is this? When is the Senior Bowl being played?

256
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: Is it before the Super Bowl? Is? Yes? This that's

257
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 1: why as a as a pro coach, you kind of

258
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: want to be in position with your new team at

259
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: that Senior Bowl. If you're not, if your team's not

260
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: the playoffs and or you yeah, or you need permission

261
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: to go down there. Although you know what for the

262
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl, and one of the important things there is

263
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: the in person interviews and set up. But the practices

264
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: you can get them on tape, but that's not why

265
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 1: they Yeah, like you said, they go there to talk

266
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: to the kids right, Yeah, but you can send the

267
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,360
Speaker 1: scouts there and they do a really good job. So yeah,

268
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 1: they get in the way of the media after the

269
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: practice sessions, so you know they're doing a good job. Okay, look,

270
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: let's look at it at this situation. Let's say whether

271
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: it's Jacksonville, Las Vegas, whoever it might be. They decide

272
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 1: they want to hire either Kellen Moore or Dan Quinn

273
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: as their head coach, and they make that decision by

274
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: January twelfth, which is before the playoffs start. Kellen Moore

275
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: and Dan Quinn they are not leaving this job until

276
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: it is seen all the way through the end, and

277
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 1: hopefully that would be all the way through the Super Bowl.

278
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: Even though so it could be, could it be announced

279
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: that they are the new head coach of the Jacksonville

280
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 1: Jaguars on January whenever that decision. The still stay with

281
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 1: the Cowboys all way and and trusting both sides, trusting

282
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: that the guys opposed as opposed to what happened with

283
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: SMU and TCU this year. TCU had their opening on Halloween.

284
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: They basically a week later decided they were hiring the

285
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,439
Speaker 1: SMU head coach, Sonny Dikes as their coach, but and

286
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 1: SMU had a lot to play for. They did not

287
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 1: play well down the stretch. In fact, they lost I

288
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: think the last three games or four of the last

289
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 1: five or whatever. And then after the SMU season was over,

290
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: they went ahead and made the announcement that Sonny Dikes

291
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 1: is the new head coach at TCU. The decisions, the

292
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 1: decision had already been made before that, but it was

293
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 1: never announced. So I'm wondering, will the NFL handle it

294
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: differently and go ahead and make the announcement or it

295
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 1: will How do you keep something like that secret. You can't.

296
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 1: You can't. It wasn't a secret. It was with Sunny

297
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 1: Dikes exactly. Yeah, they tried to make it seem like

298
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: it was a secret. The truth is like water. They'll

299
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 1: find its own level, all right. And speaking of the truth, Okay,

300
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: before we go to this, I want to clarify on

301
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings because I said that that kind of

302
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,919
Speaker 1: the Hail Mary kind of ended their run. Well, actually

303
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 1: it did not kind of end their run, because the

304
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 1: next year they lost in the Super Bowl in nineteen

305
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 1: seventy six, and then they lost in the conference championship

306
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: game in nineteen seventy seven. Let's see who might so

307
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:26,000

356
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: Night's game because we dwelled so much and rightly so

357
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:28,360
Speaker 1: on the eleven interceptions. And we talked to Marcus Lawrence

Speaker 1: I got one, and I got one, so good. Let

360
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 1: me go first the birthday boy, Thank you, floor first drive, Yes,

361
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 1: our last third down play. I was just going to

362
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 1: bring what the heck man, what are we doing? That

363
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: was that plan was a great design. I was thinking

364
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: about that driving in that's amazing, said that I was

365
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 1: going to present it what was the worst play from

366
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 1: the game, but it could have been the best if

367
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 1: he didn't drop. Here. Here's the amazing thing about that,

368
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: in my opinion, is the week before, have you ever

369
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 1: seen that play? I had not. I want to say

370
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: I have before. The week before the New York Jets

371
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: ran that same play, and I don't know if it

372
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 1: was an end of games scenario, but I saw a

373
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 1: tweet and I retweeted it at the time when I

374
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,119
Speaker 1: saw it the week before, and actually passed it on

375
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: to a friend. Braxton Barriosum was on the I think

376
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 1: he was in the Yamari Cooper role and the receiving

377
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: end of the past from another player, and he has

378
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 1: some family that live here that you know, and so

379
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 1: I passed it onto them. Hey, Braxton made a play

380
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: what He also had a kickoff return for a touchdown

381
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: this week. But anyway, but it was amazing because I

382
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:49,879
Speaker 1: saw that play and then the Cowboys basically ran the

383
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 1: same play, and I was like, now is he add living? Noah,

384
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: Maari was setting. So I'm sitting there wondering do these

385
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 1: play callers in the do they like text each other

386
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 1: and hey, look what play I ran. No, tried to

387
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 1: hide it, but then hey, Kellen saw it. I must

388
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,640
Speaker 1: have been what happened, because I'm sure you not only

389
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 1: was a Mary waiting. I think I saw CD blocking.

390
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 1: I saw CD blocking after he pitched it. After he

391
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,719
Speaker 1: pitched it, and he was blocking the guys away from

392
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: the sideline because Mary's on the sideline. CD was blocking

393
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: to shield them from the sideline, like inside inside. He

394
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: pushed them back inside. Now that's not what you want

395
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 1: them because that's what Cedric was going. But but it's like,

396
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 1: is it an option play for the receiver? Okay? Because

397
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: Cedric had a decision to make it as he I mean,

398
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,959
Speaker 1: he was approaching first, the first step, and he had

399
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:48,399
Speaker 1: some players in that way. I understood the decision that Okay,

400
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: I can't get there, I'm gonna go ahead. But I

401
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: would imagine he has that option. That's where it was.

402
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 1: It was like an RPO. It was an RPO judging

403
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: or judging from what he didn't do on the fake

404
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,920
Speaker 1: punt against Washington last year. They probably told him pitch

405
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: the thing, don't hold on to it, but he judging job,

406
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: judging by the reaction just the body language of the

407
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 1: head coach on the sideline. Yes, it looked like the

408
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 1: head coach would have preferred to go ahead and try

409
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: to get that. First reaction was Kyle, we set up

410
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 1: another good play, didn't That's what I'm thinking, catch the ball. Okay,

411
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: he was like that because the he dropped the ball.

412
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,159
Speaker 1: But if he catches that ball, man, we're looking like genius.

413
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: And he had to make sure the pitch was behind

414
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 1: Sure it was. Did Cooper have to turn to No?

415
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 1: It was right, it was behind I know the past. Yeah,

416
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: that's what I mean. It went it was a lad

417
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 1: one yeah yeah right, yeah, absolutely, But I was trying

418
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: to remember if it was behind Cooper, did he have

419
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 1: to turn or was it in front of him where

420
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 1: he could catch everything? You see, it didn't he did.

421
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: He just pivoted. Yeah, it hit him here right right,

422
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: And I don't so, I don't know. He had a

423
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 1: lane up. The sideline's so busy. Look I think he

424
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,360
Speaker 1: was excited. Yeah, it's like, oh, this isn't gonna work.

425
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's my that's ok. I realized we forgot

426
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: to talk about. Yeah that was because that was the

427
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: only U really mistake that they made the entire game.

428
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: That's all I saw. If you're gonna knitpick, then that's

429
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 1: how that at first drive culminated. And that's not what

430
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 1: we wanted in that regard. So after that, no hiccups

431
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: at all. Of course, perfect game otherwise, can you um

432
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: they only had three penalties for like fifteen yards? Here

433
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: did we have a fumble anytime? Here's what I saw

434
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 1: after they punted on that first possession. It was touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown.

435
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 1: I love that now one of them. One of them

436
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 1: was the interception repurci the picks. And then you start

437
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 1: the second half and there was a three and out right,

438
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,359
Speaker 1: and then it was a touchdown on special teams and

439
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,440
Speaker 1: touchdown on the special teams. Yes, and then it's tough

440
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: to knit after that, huh. But yeah. So I think

441
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 1: one of the things we probably didn't talk enough about

442
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: was Zeke was running like Zeke. The numbers don't reflect, no,

443
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 1: they don't, but the touchdown run did. The fact that

444
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:33,160
Speaker 1: he got into the clear on the touchdown reception where

445
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 1: it was a play fake, he went into the line

446
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 1: and veered out and he was running well. So that

447
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 1: means in LA and I made a point of this,

448
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: I think two weeks ago that they other than Pollard's

449
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 1: fifty eight yard touchdown run, they just don't run the

450
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,959
Speaker 1: ball in the end zone, especially in the red zone. Yes,

451
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 1: and now in consecutive weeks he's got a thirteen yard

452
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: touchdown run in eleven yard touchdown run and they finished

453
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 1: it off diving for the pylons. So I can't believe

454
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 1: whatever that whatever that need braces doing, it's working. Yeah.

455
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: And he called the past and they called the past

456
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 1: right Yeah. In the red zone, yes, so we were

457
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 1: clicking in the red zone. Were six or six of

458
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 1: the red after three of thirteen was it? Or three

459
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 1: of eleven? And I mean, let's, you know, let's put

460
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 1: things into perspective. We know out the way it was

461
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 1: supposed to. You could clearly see that some of the

462
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 1: backups had no idea what they were doing. The play

463
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,679
Speaker 1: to Elliott looked just as the play to Shouts. They

464
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 1: didn't cover either one of them. They're still not close

465
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: to covering those. So you could see where especially number

466
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 1: twenty in the defensive backfield for the for the Washington,

467
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: he was never on his man right. He always looked lost,

468
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 1: and they were playing backup linebacker. Yes they were. It

469
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: was a lot of backup stuff going on. But what

470
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: what it gave you a chance to do was to

471
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: clarify what you need to do offensively. This is what

472
00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: it's supposed to look like. And when you talk about

473
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 1: zis running, the running is not spectacular, but it's affective

474
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 1: because then it's moving the chains. Yes, and it's we're

475
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 1: getting enough on first down the second down to where

476
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 1: they have to respect that run and they're bringing that

477
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 1: safety down. We just want to bring that safety down.

478
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: Once he comes down, then we're going to feast on

479
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 1: the outside. So I'm loving it. So sort of like

480
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 1: the problems when you have your fourth quarterbacks starting last

481
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: night and a backup backup? Right, how's that guy they had?

482
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 1: They had? They played fifty seven different players, Yes, yes,

483
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: on the Saints. Did they say it like this a

484
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 1: record in the well, no meaning all season? They because

485
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 1: they they played more than that. I'm sure. In regards

486
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 1: to no starters, I think starters starters. There you go,

487
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 1: starters fifty seven, that's a record, that's a record. I

488
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: think the red Skins are right behind them. That's like

489
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 1: the Rangers pitching staff. They've gone through some secs where

490
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 1: they've used fifty seven starters. I think that was maybe

491
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: not starters. And I think that the worst part for

492
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: Ian book was he didn't find out. I don't know

493
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: how if he got a practice or two in uh

494
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: and then they couldn't block. I mean they were over

495
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 1: for nine on third down at one point they gained

496
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: they had one. They actually gained positive yardies once once

497
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: positive positive judies. Yeah, first positives. So even though they

498
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 1: didn't have a book on the Saints quarterback, they handled

499
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: them pretty well. Here we go. The poor the poor

500
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: right tackle couldn't block anybody. They tried to diagram one

501
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: play on why the blitz got there. And they were

502
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: talking about the inside guy, you know, circling around and

503
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 1: I'm going, all you do is look at the right tackle.

504
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,239
Speaker 1: He blew his block. The guy went right around him

505
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: like he was a tomb. It's like, I don't care

506
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 1: what kind of game they played inside if that guy

507
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: didn't get him, that guy was getting Tayton and then

508
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: he couldn't get a break on call. Yeah, they were

509
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 1: dogging him. Yeah, it's something about the Saint. We we

510
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 1: we fussed all the time cowboys, Yeah, about getting bad calls.

511
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: He's right, they are the most they are the most

512
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 1: consistent team and getting the worst calls. He must have

513
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 1: been on that competition committee and gave a bunch of

514
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 1: those officials bad grades. He had so much to do

515
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: before the half. He wants to fussing one of his

516
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: players and get that straight. And before he did that,

517
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 1: he's like, hey, come in, come in talking to the beflee.

518
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: We got to talk because he had just given the

519
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: bogus call and he wasn't talking. He was yelling. Yeah,

520
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: he was all right, there's more from that legal pad

00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:20,960

00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: there's a lot of a lot of activity there yesterday,

576
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: a lot of fans just hanging out and basking in

577
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,799
Speaker 1: the glory of a victory Monday. And one little kid

578
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 1: came up to me and I said, so, what do

579
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,880
Speaker 1: you think of that game yesterday? Hey, Dak won the

580
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: my fantasy football championship for me? Right now, about a

581
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 1: twelve year old kid? And what were you doing out there? Bill? Well,

582
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 1: I'll get to that in just second. Home. From a

583
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:52,879
Speaker 1: fantasy football perspective, Okay, it's crazy right now as people

584
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 1: that play fantasy football out there. I've got I'm in

585
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: three leagues and I literally don't pay attention to these

586
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 1: teams all week long. Why are you in it? I

587
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 1: got a family one, I've got a neighborhood one, and

588
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 1: I've got one here at Cowboys TV. Okay, and so

589
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 1: it literally is right before kickoff before I each week

590
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,879
Speaker 1: look at the light up and realized, oh, I gotta

591
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 1: make these adjustments. Okay. So somehow I was in the

592
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 1: in two leagues. I was in the in the semifinals

593
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,840
Speaker 1: this past Sunday, and so I look at my team

594
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 1: and I went on one of my teams. I had

595
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 1: literally six guys in my starting light up who were

596
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 1: out COVID or injury or whatever, and so I just

597
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 1: had to start picking up guys off their way. Okay,

598
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 1: let me show you. I picked up Damien Harris, the

599
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 1: new England running back, who for some reason was out there.

600
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 1: He got twenty eight points. I picked up Justin Jackson,

601
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 1: he got me thirty points. The only guy that I

602
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 1: really had on the team was T Higgins Cincinnati. He

603
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: got me. I picked up Joshua Palmer the Chargers, he

604
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,719
Speaker 1: got me twelve point eight points. Dawson knocks of the

605
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 1: Bills because Kelsey was out, you got me eight points whatever.

606
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,479
Speaker 1: And then and I just blew away my opponent. Nice

607
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,320
Speaker 1: on both of What does that tell you, I don't know.

608
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 1: It tells you don't have to study hard. That a

609
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,919
Speaker 1: fantasy is I never got into that. I never did either.

610
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 1: It's just really in the last five to seven and

611
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 1: eight year or something like that, I just just try.

612
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,239
Speaker 1: We would we have a neighborhood fantasy draft party, and

613
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 1: then everybody in the neighborhood just forgets about it all season. Basically.

614
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 1: It's just it's bringing the nerds into sports. That's what

615
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 1: I tried that, which is a good thing. One summer

616
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 1: with baseball, when it was and I don't remember what

617
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 1: it was called, somebody quit a league and buddy of

618
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: mine said, oh, you can take it over. It's a

619
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 1: lot of fun. Right. Well, it's all based on percentage, right,

620
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 1: and you have your roster. It's not fantasy. You got

621
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 1: to manage your roster. So I would be stubborn. It's like, well,

622
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 1: that's the best pitcher, he's got to go, you know,

623
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: and then you leave them in one inning too long

624
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 1: and the percentages catch up with you, right. And I

625
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 1: would stay up to two o'clock in the morning playing

626
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,319
Speaker 1: these games trying to make up and I'm going never

627
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 1: again too. I'm too competitive. I can't remember. When I

628
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: was coaching that junior high softball team fast pitched girls,

629
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: I'd be at work scribbling out, oh, I do that

630
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 1: my lineup right, the exact same thing. And it wasn't

631
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,839
Speaker 1: like and this was real. I can't imagine what I did,

632
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: the exact same thing. You know, you'd set that girl's

633
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: softball lineup where you got to clean up hit her

634
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 1: in the fourth hole, and then you got another one

635
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 1: in the eighth and you got the bad hitter. You know,

636
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,240
Speaker 1: you got it. There's a real strategy make a difference.

637
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: It did. It did, Yeah, there's no doubt about it.

638
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 1: But it was funny. It was hilarious as we were

639
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 1: my wife and I were sitting there and there then

640
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 1: watching games at the noon games on Sunday. She wasn't

641
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,440
Speaker 1: really watching, she was doing what but I would shout

642
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: every time, like to Jackson scored a touchdown. I was going,

643
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 1: this is a basy. They don't play for the cow

644
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 1: And I didn't even have my I didn't even have

645
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,359
Speaker 1: my guy, Rex Burkhead on the team. And he went

646
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 1: to see that. I just saw something that came that

647
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 1: was an amazing bill on the TV and they were

648
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 1: doing a fantasy thing and it was drafting available fantasy

649
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,799
Speaker 1: players going forward, and Burkhead was the number one guy

650
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: thirty one years old, ninth year in the league, and

651
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,320
Speaker 1: he's he's playing for the Texas, and he's playing for

652
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 1: the Texas. But he balled out. It's hard to play,

653
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 1: it's all out in a situation. He was at day

654
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: one and he was kicked. But well, hell, he had

655
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:40,399
Speaker 1: a hundred something yards. They've had one hundred forty nine yards,

656
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 1: but he was I didn't I was gonna play him.

657
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 1: I look at fifty yards. I'm the president of the

658
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,880
Speaker 1: Rex Burkhead Fan Club, and I didn't put him in

659
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,320
Speaker 1: my fantasy football lineup when I had to have somebody.

660
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,840
Speaker 1: But he had one hundred fifty yards. He's had some

661
00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 1: hundred yard games. Fifty No, no, that's the first time

662
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty year come on at thirty. But

663
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: the reason at thirty one years old. Okay, twenty round

664
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,399
Speaker 1: draft back, that was amazing. We took Joseph Randall. Go ahead, Mickey.

665
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 1: So since we've been taught wait wait, wait, he wants

666
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: he wants Burkehead to be here now, right forget Zeke?

667
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 1: We got Zeke? Bad, No, we get no, no, no,

668
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 1: just as the third back in his role, just like

669
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 1: he was with the Patriots. Tom Brady would take him

670
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,839
Speaker 1: in a heartbeat, especially with what's going on there. Let's say,

671
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 1: can't get your buddies to release the guy, and then

672
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 1: that's what I'm I wanted. Let's release burkehead down there.

673
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: Nick Caisserio, the GM. Of course, he was with the

674
00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 1: Patriots forever and so that's why he wound up there

675
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:41,800
Speaker 1: and he was coming off in a cl to Houston

676
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,359
Speaker 1: has a big connection with that. Yeah, Boston, Yeah, yeah.

677
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: So since we've been talking about interceptions and takeaways, I

678
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 1: noticed here on the latest NFL stats, the Cowboys are

679
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:58,359
Speaker 1: tied for second with a plus fourteen differential takeaway turn

680
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,319
Speaker 1: over the turn a pretty good differential. First is Green

681
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 1: Bay at plus sixteen. And how are they doing in

682
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: the standings? Green Bay? I think they've already clay number one,

683
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:14,719
Speaker 1: except the number one. So the number one seed in

684
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,560
Speaker 1: the in the NFC is plus sixteen and the number

685
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:21,279
Speaker 1: two seed is plus fourteen along with Indianapolis, which is

686
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: there's something to play for except to have their quarterbacks

687
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 1: out ten days the second game too. The last ask

688
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 1: who the backup is? Sam Ellinger's that's right. I think

689
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,399
Speaker 1: he's he's number two and they've got an important game

690
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:43,800
Speaker 1: every game. I think Sam could play pretty well, I

691
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 1: really do, and he reminds me of here. I mean

692
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,040
Speaker 1: sometimes in a good way. So check out. Here's the

693
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 1: here's the top teams in the turnaroad turnover differential, Green Bay, Indianapolis, Dallas, Buffalo, Arizona, Minnesota,

694
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:03,360
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, New England. That's the top eight before a

695
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 1: team shows up that Denver. I don't know if they

696
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:09,720
Speaker 1: got a chance. I don't think they have a chance anymore.

697
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:14,799
Speaker 1: In the playoffs, obviously, Houston, Kansas City. The Rams are

698
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:18,719
Speaker 1: tied for ninth along with Seattle, and then comes New

699
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 1: Orleans at fourteenth. So the only team the Chargers still

700
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:30,319
Speaker 1: have a chance. I think, yes, charge everybody Philadelphy. Three

701
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:35,759
Speaker 1: teams still have a chance. Philadelphia are tied for fifteenth,

702
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 1: in Miami's eighteenth, in Pittsburgh's eighteenth, Cincinnati's twentieth. After that,

703
00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 1: it's all the also rans except for Vegas because I

704
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 1: still think they have Oh how about Baltimore, They're twenty ninth,

705
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 1: they're minus ten. Too many too many gambles, right, too

706
00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:00,520
Speaker 1: many gambles. So anyway, but the Cowboys are our first

707
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,760
Speaker 1: with thirty three takeaways, and they are first with twenty

708
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:08,759
Speaker 1: five interceptions. Okay, the Colts, by the way, they play

709
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 1: the Raiders on Sunday and then they close at Jacksonville.

710
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 1: So what a great story it would be. And Sam

711
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 1: Ellinger is the guy that's likely to start for the

712
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 1: Colts against the Raid. What a great story it would

713
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,319
Speaker 1: be if Sam Ellinger is able to come in there

714
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 1: and basically secure a playoff spot for the Colts with

715
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,239
Speaker 1: what all he had gone through this year. His brother

716
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,400
Speaker 1: died tragically on the spring right after he was drafted

717
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 1: by the Colts. Yeah, it was a tragic situation. And

718
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:44,319
Speaker 1: UT right, Yeah, he was reserve linebacker on the UT

719
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,839
Speaker 1: football team. Yeah, yeah, And so Sam had to deal

720
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,399
Speaker 1: with that, just as he had making the transition into

721
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 1: the NFL. And well, he's a strong high care you know.

722
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 1: Of course, he had lost his father when he was

723
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,840
Speaker 1: either in high school I guess he's in high school

724
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,400
Speaker 1: or early on it when he was at UT. But

725
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,439
Speaker 1: it would be that would be a great story if

726
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,879
Speaker 1: Sam Ellinger can lead them into problem. I truly think

727
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 1: he can. Um, he's solid quarterback. Had those problems at UT,

728
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:14,680
Speaker 1: you know, I guess because he was going through so much.

729
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 1: I had no idea that what he was going through.

730
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 1: But I just thought he didn't play up to his potential,

731
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,320
Speaker 1: especially his last year there and the way he plays

732
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,719
Speaker 1: his size, the way he runs the ball. He's a

733
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:26,799
Speaker 1: lot like Carson Wins, and if he could just stay

734
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,960
Speaker 1: away from those Wins mistakes, I think he'll do pretty well.

735
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 1: I think he fits fits well into that about leaning

736
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 1: on that running back, Jonathan Take that's what you do. Yeah, yeah,

737
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 1: just just handed off a goat. But but he's got

738
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 1: to be able to show enough throwing the football that

739
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,880
Speaker 1: that defenses aren't. I truly believe that he can. I

740
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 1: really do all right, Mickey got mixed. Shot the closest

741
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 1: out with our final minute here. I was trying to

742
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 1: see if Ellinger had any He hasn't had playing time

743
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 1: to have it in here. Um Tyron Smith, Tyron Smith.

744
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:12,120
Speaker 1: Garry Jones backed up Steven's assessment on Monday this morning,

745
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:15,920
Speaker 1: saying he's betting that Tyron Smith is good to go,

746
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 1: so they're counting on him. We'll find out more tomorrow

747
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:25,279
Speaker 1: when they go to practice. But Jerry basically said that, uh,

748
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:29,359
Speaker 1: And he was asked if he ever got to catch

749
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:33,400
Speaker 1: a pass as an offensive lineman, and he said, I

750
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 1: got mine. Before I became a guard, I was a fullback.

751
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: Was he really yeah? And he said practice was a

752
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:45,080
Speaker 1: lot easier as a fullback than being a guard and

753
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,759
Speaker 1: getting hit every play, every snap. So now, back then,

754
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:53,320
Speaker 1: the fullback carried the football. Oh yeah, well I remember

755
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,800
Speaker 1: there was a primary back. Was the fullback because a

756
00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 1: lot of time because technically Jim Brown was a fullback, right, wow,

757
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 1: I never knew that. Oh yeah, and Um Green Bay

758
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 1: Um Horning was the tailback. They called it a half

759
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:19,759
Speaker 1: was Oh why am i? Jim Taylor Taylor of Las

760
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 1: was the fullback and he was their leading rusher all

761
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,879
Speaker 1: the time. Now, Harning was a leading scorer because he'd

762
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 1: kicked field goals too, while Garrison ran for a lot

763

765
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 1: it or not. I said, are you serious? He was like,

766

767
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:45,360
Speaker 1: a fullback, hey man. He could run and run and

768
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,919
Speaker 1: he'd run through a wall to Oh, by the way,

769
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:54,800
Speaker 1: Bay talked about Rayphael right catching his touchdown. They actually

770
00:46:54,920 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 1: showed the video and there right there newspaper clipping and

771
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:05,000

772
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:10,239
Speaker 1: eighty five video, Yes, and it wasn't necessarily on the sideline.

774
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 1: Uh NFL network. Okay they did, did they make the

775
00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 1: claim that he was wearing the number eighty five and

776
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 1: entire show, and we tipped them off clarified that it

777
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:28,880
Speaker 1: was a tight end. They knew it was a tight end,

778
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:31,839
Speaker 1: but just for the sake of the story itself, they

779
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:35,760
Speaker 1: called him and off there you go. They fake news again.

780
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:40,160
Speaker 1: But the real story here, they actually did say that

781
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:43,839
Speaker 1: he was they want they wanted to continue the narrative. Yeah,

782
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,880
Speaker 1: well so we we have corrected and clarified the narrative

783
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 1: and Calie Rayfield, right, was a tight end on that time.

784
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:55,160
Speaker 1: I passed the picture onto the Cowboys PR department that

785
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 1: showed that he had the ball in his hands eighty five.

786
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:03,719
Speaker 1: He looked good, right, he looked really good. He was laid.

787
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 1: He was a hell of a yeah, he was excited.

788
00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:10,799
Speaker 1: Think about that. And he ended up at was at

789
00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:17,360
Speaker 1: Valdosta State. He's no Fort Valley Valley, George. Yeah, and

790
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 1: now man, and that's where shine, and that's where he

791
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:24,320
Speaker 1: ended up in college, right, because probably didn't have a

792
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:27,200
Speaker 1: lot of opportunity Fort Valley. Now he's what do you

793
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,720
Speaker 1: think his playing weight was, even as a offensive tackle.

794
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:37,840
Speaker 1: I bet he was in the two six. I wouldn't

795
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:40,439
Speaker 1: be surprised if he was two fifty. Well, he was playing.

796
00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 1: It really didn't look good. And the only reason he

797
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:49,719
Speaker 1: got that scholarship is he was already as he told

798
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:54,440
Speaker 1: the story, Uh, he signed up for the military and

799
00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:59,319
Speaker 1: he had to pull strings for someone to allow him

800
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:03,560
Speaker 1: out of his military commitment to go to college. And

801
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:08,359
Speaker 1: whoever did that basically told him, when you go there,

802
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:11,480
Speaker 1: you got to finish, otherwise you're back in the military.

803
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:15,120
