And so Derek our boss, right, he says, y'all 42 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 3: don't know who Omar Epps is? 43 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 4: And I'm like, no, but I'm not really good with actors' 44 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 4: names until I see them. 45 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 3: And so he was like loving basketball, and I'm like bet. 46 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 4: But he got the chance to spend today with the Cowboys, 47 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 4: got a chance to talk to Mike, Michael Parsons, Zach Martin, 48 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,799 Speaker 4: a lot of other guys into his podcast from here. 49 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 3: So it was a pretty cool day today, Christy. Did 50 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 3: you get a chance to talk to him at all? 51 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 5: I didn't get to talk to him today, but he's 52 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 5: been out here at previous camps, and I'd say he's 53 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 5: our first big celebrity siding of the summer. So but 54 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 5: that's the thing about being so close to Hollywood or 55 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 5: up in Santa Barbara. You know, Kevin Cooschner would come down, 56 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 5: or we've had Denzel Washington. And the last time that 57 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 5: the Cowboys had a joint practice with the Rams. Ty Burrell, 58 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 5: who plays Phil Dumphy and Modern Family, just such a 59 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 5: funny guy. 60 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 6: He's a big Rams fan. 61 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 5: He was here and he and I were talking on 62 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 5: the sideline right when the big fight broke out. So 63 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 5: that's what I remember whenever I see my Modern Family, 64 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 5: I think about think about the Rams fight. And so 65 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 5: of course the Rams are coming back where it's a 66 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 5: big week this week. So today and tomorrow were install 67 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 5: days seven and eight, and then Wednesday will be a 68 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 5: mock game basically a walk through, and then Thursday is 69 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 5: going to be a joint practice with the Rams, and 70 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 5: that's going to be great. And then because the first 71 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 5: teamers and some of the key second team guys that 72 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 5: will not play in preseason games, they'll take part in 73 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 5: the joint practices, So that'll arguably the best work that 74 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 5: the first teamers have in camp. 75 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 3: With joint practice being on Thursday. 76 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 4: I was good to obviously see today Trayvon Diggs in pads. 77 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 3: A lot of excitement around that. 78 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, he had his first live reps today in practice. 79 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 4: The first only played in one period of seven on 80 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 4: seven drills. But talking about Trayvon Diggs, Christy, what did 81 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 4: you like? I mean, obviously there's still work him back 82 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 4: in slowly, but what did you like so far seeing 83 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 4: him in seven on Yeah. 84 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 5: Just the fact that he was able to take part 85 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 5: in it. And I think that when we talked about 86 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 5: him last time, we said that the Mike McCarthy said 87 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 5: the plan is to work him back in smartly, So 88 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,559 Speaker 5: to take part in the seven on seven is great. 89 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 5: There were team drills after that, there was the end 90 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,679 Speaker 5: of the day was again what they call a pressure 91 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 5: period where they put put the offense in third and 92 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 5: long and fourth and long situations. So it didn't take 93 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 5: part in any of the eleven on eleven or the 94 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 5: final sessions where they're doing more situational. But just the 95 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 5: fact that he's doing seven on seven I think is 96 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 5: a great sign. 97 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 3: Jess. 98 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, not only that, but six, oh no, you're good. 99 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 2: Not only that. Something I've really noticed, man that Deally 100 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 2: kills us sometimes. Something I've noticed throughout all of training 101 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 2: camp which has been really emphasized, it seems like by 102 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 2: Al Harris is the pass breakups and the ballhowking abilities 103 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 2: that are coming. 104 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 6: From all of your dbs. 105 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,039 Speaker 2: I mean, going on the list, you have Jordan Lewis 106 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 2: pass breakup, you have Doron Bland, Kaylen Carson. I mean 107 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: you could keep going every day. It seems like there's 108 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 2: a multiple set of PBUs going through every practice. So 109 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: my question, I guess to you guys, if you've noticed 110 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 2: anything different than Al Harris or Mike Zimmer's doing, is 111 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 2: is that being more emphasized And if so, what have 112 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 2: you noticed, Because I feel like that's just such a 113 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: good sign early on that that ball howking, especially in 114 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 2: a new defensive system, is happening so quickly within training camp. 115 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it remains and always be a point 116 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:38,799 Speaker 5: of emphasis. 117 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 6: I think we've seen more of. 118 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 5: It this camp, just because you know the skill level 119 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 5: and the maturation and experience of guys like Bland and 120 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 5: Trayvon to have a pass breakup today and it trade 121 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 5: like anyone. But and then but the one that that 122 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 5: Trayvon Diggs had today, the pass breakup on one over 123 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 5: the middle where he came up. So I think that 124 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 5: in your minds Ie, if you say, oh, there was 125 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 5: a pass breakup, you think of it maybe on the 126 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 5: sideline and kind of some closing speed there, but this 127 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 5: one was more on like a crossing over the middle. 128 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 5: So yeah, definitely good to see. 129 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 3: Good to see. 130 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 4: And also one thing that I did kind of notice 131 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 4: is that he's a little bit hesitant moving horizontally, just 132 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 4: a little bit. And that's as expected when you're returning 133 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 4: back from your ACL injury. 134 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 3: But like you said, Christy, he did have a pass breakup. 135 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 4: His movements still good enough vertically, right, but I think 136 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 4: there's still gonna be a little bit of hesitation with 137 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 4: just the moving laterally. For Trayvon, but it's just good 138 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 4: to see him back in the mix. But when you 139 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 4: talk about that secondary, what have you liked so far, Christy, 140 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 4: and what have you seen so far from those guys. 141 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 5: I think Bland looks great. I think Calen Carson might 142 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 5: be a real player. I thought he might get and 143 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 5: Mike McCarthy was asked about his versatility and mentioned him 144 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 5: playing inside some But the time when I've seen Carson, 145 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 5: he's been outside at left cornerback. I'men Hall, who was 146 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 5: on the practice squad for the forty nine ers last year, 147 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 5: has been working mainly second team in the slot behind 148 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 5: Jordan Lewis. One player who's been working the way that 149 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 5: jay Ron Curse did last year Israel mccuamu, you know, 150 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 5: down mainly taken on tight ends or some of the 151 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 5: bigger guys in the slot. Mcwamou did not practice today. 152 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 6: I think it was a muscle injury that he had. 153 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 5: I guess on Saturday or Friday, probably Saturday, but he 154 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 5: didn't take part today. 155 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 6: He was off over on the side. 156 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 5: But you know, it's not just Bland, It's not just 157 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 5: Trayvon Diggs coming back in today, but some of the 158 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 5: young guys like I think Carson's probably caught my eye 159 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 5: the most. 160 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, I heard I've heard good things about Kiln 161 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 2: Carson even prior to training camp. But it's good to 162 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 2: see him really showing out. And again, you want to 163 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 2: talk about a rookie that's taking advantages of the opportunities 164 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 2: when all eyes are on him, that's how you do it, 165 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 2: That's how you fortify your spot in the final fifty 166 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 2: three is doing exactly what he's doing and taking advantage 167 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: of every rep he gets. Nicole, to go back to 168 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 2: your question of kind of what has stood out about 169 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 2: you know, the DBS in general, it's the confidence level 170 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 2: for me from the clips I've seen, the film I've watched, 171 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 2: it is the confidence level in your DB's right now. 172 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 2: And to me, it seems like they have quicker reaction times, 173 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 2: you know, and it's interesting they seem comfortable in this 174 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: new system under Zim. So I'm interested to continue seeing 175 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 2: how that progresses because it's such a good sign. I mean, 176 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 2: I even go back to last year when Mike McCarthy 177 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 2: installed his new offensive system with the offense, the big 178 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 2: question was, well, how comfortable was everybody going to look? 179 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 2: So quickly under this new system, you know, when they 180 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,599 Speaker 2: were so used to Kellen Moore's system. Kind of the 181 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 2: same feel when you're coming off of dan Quinn and 182 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 2: something everybody was very familiar with. There's a lot of 183 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 2: dan Quinn guys within this defense, and yes, some of 184 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,559 Speaker 2: them did follow him to Washington. We don't have to 185 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 2: talk about that. 186 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 3: It's fine. 187 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 2: It's fine, no hard feelings except for two days out 188 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 2: of the season. But I will say the way that 189 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 2: everybody seems confident in this system should give people hope 190 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 2: that they're soaking it in. They're taking it in more 191 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 2: than anything as a player, They're respecting what Zim is saying, 192 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 2: and for me, that's a good sign going forward. You 193 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 2: always want your players to have the respect for what 194 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 2: is being laid down, even if it's new for them, 195 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 2: and even if it's a little bit humbling. When you 196 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 2: have older veteran guys, say Tank, for example, that take 197 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 2: things back to the basics to kind of retrain that 198 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: part of his brain that maybe he's ignored for the 199 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 2: last eight seasons, or you know, when you get so 200 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 2: familiar with things, you kind of forget the muscle memory 201 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:43,959 Speaker 2: that came with the basics. So what I love about 202 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: Zim's system is it's creating confidence. It's ensuring that guys, 203 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 2: no matter what experience level, feels confident within it and 204 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 2: they're all doing what they're supposed to be doing. You 205 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 2: don't have people feeling like they need to be doing 206 00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 2: ten things at once. You're focusing on what your job is. 207 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 2: That sounds as simple as it gets, but really you're 208 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 2: just not reinventing the wheel here. 209 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 5: It looks like, Yeah, I tell you a person that 210 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,959 Speaker 5: I'm really excited about this season because hopefully he'll stay 211 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 5: healthy and enter the season healthy because he wasn't that 212 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 5: last year. But Donovan Wilson, I think in Mike Zimmer's system, 213 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 5: and like today, good thing for the offense that they 214 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 5: there was no true contact today because Wilson would have 215 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 5: blown him up. 216 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 6: But you know, he's one. 217 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 5: Of these guys that makes these what Bill Parcels would say, 218 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 5: catalytic plays. We've talked about donno before, but today would 219 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 5: have been one of those catalytic plays. I think he's 220 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 5: really going to thrive in this. It seems like whenever 221 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 5: there's a takeaway, if it's not bland or digs, you know, 222 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 5: Donno's involved somehow, and then we cannot mention the defensive 223 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 5: backs and not say something about Jordan Lewis, who is 224 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 5: the first nickel corner, because he's so taken for granted. 225 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 6: I think he's one of the most underrated. 226 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 5: Guys on the team, but most respected among the coaches 227 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 5: and teammates. And he's someone that Mike McCarthy was talking 228 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,079 Speaker 5: about in the world today just what a great camp 229 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 5: that he's having. So I just want to give a 230 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 5: shout out to Jordan Lewis because he's doing a fantastic 231 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:06,959 Speaker 5: job this summer. 232 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 4: Again, kind of piggybacking off of Jess's point about the system, 233 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 4: I think that these guys are also enjoying like the 234 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 4: creativity that Mike Zimmer brings to this defense, right, I mean, 235 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 4: when you have you know, maybe like a Jordan Lewis 236 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 4: or I don't know, Nashon Wright blitzing, and you know, 237 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 4: it's just so many different things that what Zimmers bring 238 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 4: into the table, and I think that they're just more 239 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 4: enjoying it a lot more and you can see it 240 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 4: on the field. But one guy that I feel like 241 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 4: we have not talked about is Nashan Right, He's been 242 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 4: running with the ones a lot this camp, and I 243 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 4: feel like this could be a year for him. What 244 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 4: have you liked so far from Nashan and what have 245 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 4: you seen as far as his growth from taking that 246 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 4: jump from last year to this year at Christy. 247 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 5: The first couple of days, I'll be honest, I thought 248 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 5: that the receivers were getting the better of them, to 249 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 5: be honest, and now again, that's really kind of unfair 250 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 5: because it's not like you can it's not like you're 251 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 5: playing press and you can put hands on guys. So 252 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 5: once you get into the more of the padded and contact, 253 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 5: you see it's a little bit better for the cornerbacks 254 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 5: who are bigger, physical guys. But I think it's been 255 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 5: stronger this past week. Are you seeing the same thing 256 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 5: as I am, Nicole? 257 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's he's just a little bit more confident. 258 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 4: I personally didn't see that receivers were getting. 259 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 3: The best of him. 260 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,839 Speaker 4: I've seen him just constantly distrupt receivers. I feel like 261 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,079 Speaker 4: he's gotten really handsy as well. I like the fact 262 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 4: that he's just playing a little with a little bit 263 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 4: more confidence. 264 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 3: Jess, what are you like? 265 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I think he does struggle a little 266 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 2: bit when he's on man, but that also comes with 267 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 2: the territory you know of his position. So to me, 268 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 2: I feel like this is probably the best camp we've 269 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 2: seen out of Nashan, right, But then again, you know 270 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 2: your spot is up for grabs, that final fifty three 271 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 2: man roster is coming down to the wire. So again, 272 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 2: I think for a guy like Nashan, he knows that 273 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 2: you know, out of the old system, you have an opportunity. 274 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 2: And this goes for eving guys like Janie Thomas. You 275 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 2: have an opportunity to make a name for yourself in 276 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: this system. And so anytime you tell me a guy's 277 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 2: working to make his name out of it, count me 278 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 2: in on it. So he's a guy I can't say 279 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 2: he's caught my eye, given him not there, so I 280 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 2: can't see every rep. But what I will say is, 281 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: you know, if you're saying that he's catching your eye 282 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 2: a little bit more, keep that momentum going, because he's 283 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 2: a guy that i'd be interested to see a little 284 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 2: bit more in preseason, how he's doing and how he's 285 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: grown in game time. 286 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 4: Situations outside of Doran, outside of Yeah, I'm gonna make 287 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 4: this a little hard outside of Doran, outside of j 288 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 4: Jordan Lewis, outside of. 289 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 3: Carson, Kaylyn Carson too. 290 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,439 Speaker 4: Outside of those three guys, if you had to choose 291 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 4: a guy in the secondary that you feel hmm, has 292 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 4: I'll say has made the most the best impression so 293 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 4: far through camp. 294 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 3: Who are you going with? 295 00:13:53,679 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 5: Oh man, I know, you know, I don't know so 296 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 5: much standing out, but someone who taken advantage of the 297 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 5: more reps. Probably Eric Scott in this second year, so 298 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 5: drafted last year and he's been working second team left 299 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 5: corner but behind Bland and whereas and Sean's been on 300 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 5: the right side but taking Trayvon Diggs's reps. So the 301 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 5: opportunity for him to get these really valuable reps. And 302 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 5: that's why having this joint practice in addition to the 303 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 5: game with the Rams, going against receivers that you haven't 304 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 5: gone against for the past two weeks or seeing them 305 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 5: in the offseason and kind of knows some of their 306 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 5: nuances or how they run a route tree and things 307 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 5: like that. I think it's going to be really really 308 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 5: good work. So I'm excited to see how he does 309 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 5: in the competition starting on Thursday and then carrying through 310 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 5: in the preseason game. So he would be the young 311 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 5: guy that I'm most anxious to see how he takes 312 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 5: advantage of this opportunity. 313 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 2: That's a great answer, Christy. So you got yeah, I'm 314 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 2: gonna go through the safety room because, let's call a 315 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 2: spade has bade. That safety room was disappointing last season, 316 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 2: and they know that, right, that's that's no shade. They 317 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 2: understand that they uh, you know, came off of a 318 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 2: year that gave them high expectations and they didn't meet 319 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 2: those expectations from the year prior. So I'm gonna say 320 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 2: the safety room was something I really wanted to see 321 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 2: how they won operated under Zim. But two, the improvements 322 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 2: that they've had because I know there were some injuries 323 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 2: throughout the safety room last year as well. But I'm 324 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 2: gonna go with Wanyer Thomas. And you know the thing 325 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 2: about Wanye is he's a team guy. Sorry, I figured 326 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: you were going to go for him. I'm sorry. You 327 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 2: can double back, we can. We can double back on 328 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 2: this because you can agree he's one of the guys that, 329 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 2: again we were talking about earlier, You're gonna make your 330 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 2: name known in this system, this ZIM system, is gonna 331 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: work for a guy like Kanye. We've known that since 332 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 2: the beginning. Wanye has known that and he's taken advantage 333 00:15:58,080 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 2: of it. And if you remember when we had him 334 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 2: on the podcast, we asked him, pre Zim, what do 335 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 2: you want in a coach the most, and he said, 336 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 2: I want somebody who is hard on me, who is 337 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 2: going to push me, and it brings the best out 338 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 2: of me. And what I've seen so far out of 339 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 2: Wanyer is Yanyer is just playing football. It sounds so simple, 340 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 2: it almost just sounds too basic. But when a guy 341 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 2: like Wanye has the confidence that he fits in this system, 342 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 2: he has an opportunity and he can bring back the 343 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 2: basic necessities of just ball hawking. Again, You're gonna see 344 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 2: the best out of Yaner. I think a little bit 345 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 2: more playing time with the ones will do wan Yer 346 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 2: some good. I'm not sure exactly how much he's gotten 347 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 2: the hole. Maybe you can piggyback off of that, but 348 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 2: I think Wanye Thomas is definitely a guy that his 349 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 2: expectations were up here for camp and he continues to 350 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 2: exceed them. 351 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that, like you mentioned, Wanye just needs 352 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 4: more reps. 353 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 3: But you've seen him a little bit, just. 354 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 4: Like you mentioned, also, like the confidence is there, and 355 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 4: I think that he knows that this is a big. 356 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 3: Year for him. 357 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,439 Speaker 4: This is a contract year for Janye, So he knows 358 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 4: what's at stake. 359 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 3: And when you know that, you tend to bring your 360 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 3: game up a little bit higher, right. 361 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 4: But I mean the way that Mike Zimmer's been using him, 362 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 4: I think that he loves this new system and so 363 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,199 Speaker 4: it's gonna be interesting to see how he kind of 364 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 4: builds on top of that over. 365 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 3: The next couple of weeks.

But he's coming in this season with a 426 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 4: i'd say, like a different mind set and like he 427 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 4: mentioned in his believe that was his first press conference 428 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 4: here in training campus and Oxnar is that he's taking on. 429 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 3: This more of a leadership role. 430 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 4: He's not so much worried about the stats. He's just 431 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 4: wanting to go out there and kind of like everybody 432 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 4: else play football. And so far, Christy, I think then 433 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 4: you can kind of tell that on the field he's 434 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 4: just anxious to have another. 435 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 3: Big year ahead of him in twenty twenty four. 436 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 4: Do you see that happening with what you've seen so 437 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 4: far from him in practice so. 438 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 5: Far today, Let's just say it's a good thing it 439 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 5: wasn't the joint practice or regular season, because Dak would have. 440 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 6: Been pissed eating up by the line. 441 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 5: I mean, Micah looked good today and when they were 442 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 5: doing the position group work, Micah was working with a 443 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 5: defensive ends today, and when they got into the team stuff, 444 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 5: he did linebacker and I think a little bit of end, 445 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 5: mostly linebacker, but there was times where he was coming 446 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 5: off it would be a defensive right side over on 447 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 5: the left side and Tuma, and it's like Tuma was 448 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 5: in for Tyler Geydon. Geidon missed his third straight practice 449 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 5: due to illness and so hopefully he'll be back tomorrow. 450 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 6: But yeah, they had their. 451 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 5: Hands full, the offense did, and it's just a good 452 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,199 Speaker 5: thing that he wasn't allowed to hit anybody. But I 453 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 5: loved the press conference that Micah had last week because 454 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 5: he talked about the excitement with Zimmer and that he 455 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 5: noted that they're they're called Lion packages. Of course MICA's 456 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 5: nicknamed the Lion, but that the Lion packages and Bass 457 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 5: Nickel and in dime and uh, just he did he 458 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 5: did see more. Yeah, I think you're talking more kind 459 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 5: of like a leadership kind of thing. And yeah, it's 460 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 5: true that he didn't do all of his off season 461 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 5: work at the Star, but man, he's he's come in 462 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,120 Speaker 5: and it looks like he hasn't missed a beat, that's 463 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 5: for sure. 464 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 2: About you, Jess, Yeah, we were We're just talking about 465 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 2: Travon Diggs. No, it's okay. I just I was waiting 466 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 2: for you to keep me up. I'm not being so 467 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 2: anxious to talk to this time. So we're just talking 468 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,719 Speaker 2: about Trayvon earlier. And I can't help but bring up 469 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 2: the video of Micah and treve On going full WWE 470 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 2: there at training camp. That cammarderie just that's the kind 471 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 2: of leadership and you know, just overall again I said 472 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 2: camaerie already, but cammaderie that you want within your defensive system. 473 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 2: You want within the defense, you want that energy to 474 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,360 Speaker 2: build off to the rest of the guys, because look, 475 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 2: it's hard, it's hard to ignore. When Mike is pumped, 476 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 2: everybody else is pumped. Like if the lion is rawing, 477 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 2: everybody else is following suit. 478 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 5: Right. 479 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 2: So we've talked about this before, how leadership can take 480 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 2: different forms for different people. And I think what's so 481 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 2: interesting about Micah is I think people have this perception 482 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 2: of him that how he is on the field is 483 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,120 Speaker 2: how he is in the locker room, he's a little 484 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 2: bit more laid back, a little more chill in the 485 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 2: locker room, you know, But on the field, truly a 486 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 2: lion comes out. And so when you have that kind 487 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 2: of leadership on the field and then you have Trayvon 488 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 2: back and they're bouncing off of each other like that 489 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 2: is what you like to see. But overall, what I 490 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 2: really like, Chris, you brought up the lion packages. Those 491 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 2: line packages have a lot of discussing of linebackers, which 492 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 2: is just so foreign to watch. With Micah Parsons being 493 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: utilized in that way. It has just been such a 494 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 2: joy to see Micah kind of going back to Micah, right, 495 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 2: And so I think that's also why you're seeing this 496 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 2: energized version of him because he knows and Zim knows, 497 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: and they've had this communication. They have their meetings with Micah, 498 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 2: him and tray vaugh and Zim obviously that Zim's getting 499 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 2: them involved in the conversation, right. So I was a 500 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 2: little worried, I'm not gonna lie. I was a little 501 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 2: worried post Dan Quinn, how Michah was going to handle 502 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 2: a new coordinator as far as getting his input in 503 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 2: and you know, somebody like Micah absolutely should have his 504 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 2: input in the system. I'm glad to see that it's 505 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 2: coming to light like it is with Zims system and 506 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 2: those disguises well chef's kiss. I'm so excited to see 507 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 2: it in a game situation. Oh my goodness. 508 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 5: Well, the thing is Michael Parsons is is excited about it, 509 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 5: and when he's talking about the meetings, he you. 510 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 6: Know, Michael's a football guy. He I mean, he he 511 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 6: loves the game. 512 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 5: And he said one of the things with the you 513 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 5: reference these early meetings in the morning that Trayvon's in, 514 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 5: Mike is in with Zimmer. You know, it's understanding the 515 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 5: why It's like okay, when this pressure comes, or if 516 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,400 Speaker 5: Trayvon says, if I'm playing a guy this way, it's 517 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 5: going to affect the quarterback, which means it's going to 518 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:26,439 Speaker 5: give you time with the pass rush. It's you know, 519 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 5: everything in defense offensive side of the ball too. But 520 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 5: everything is a jigsaw puzzle. So you put one piece 521 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 5: in here, and how one side of the field is being. 522 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 6: Played affects the other side. 523 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 5: And so now Mike is seeing it from a more 524 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 5: holistic perspective and as a guy who's a football geek. 525 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 6: I mean, he's really keying in on that. 526 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:46,880 Speaker 5: And then the other thing that he was talking about 527 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 5: in this press conference, and this is what I really loved. 528 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 6: He was saying that, you know, this game. 529 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 5: Is more than a check to me, meaning paycheck, This 530 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 5: game is more than a check to me. You only 531 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 5: get seventeen days out of three hundred and sixty five 532 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 5: in a year to show you're the best. He also 533 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 5: said that past rushing is like art. It's it's in 534 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,239 Speaker 5: art because there's so much more that goes into it 535 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 5: than just the physical. 536 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 6: Part of it. 537 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 5: So it was really fun to just hear him kind 538 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 5: of talking about some of the intricate things that he does, 539 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 5: but then also kind of shine in a light. 540 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 6: On how he's looking at things holistically. 541 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 4: I think it's gonna I think it's also kind of cool, 542 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 4: how you know, how you typically say, if your front 543 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 4: seven are playing very well, they're handling their handling their assignments, 544 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 4: you know, the rest of the. 545 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 3: Guys can play freely well. 546 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 4: I think that so many teams, not that they don't 547 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 4: already do it already, but so many teams are gonna 548 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 4: be worried about where the hell is Michael Parsons the 549 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 4: where with these different packages, right, and it's gonna just 550 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 4: allow everybody else to play free, right. And you've seen 551 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 4: that through practice so far, and I don't know, I'm 552 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 4: excited to see it like in gamed in live game 553 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 4: reps and in practice on Thursday. 554 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 3: I think that'll be really interesting to see as well. 555 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, and he talked about dropping into the flats, you know, 556 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 5: like when he's in coverage, and it's kind of a 557 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 5: joke between the media and Micah that he doesn't have 558 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,880 Speaker 5: an interception yet, so that this is how this came 559 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 5: up as part of early in the press conference, You're 560 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 5: finally gonna get your pick, and you know, he's talking 561 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 5: about dropping in the flats and that's when he was 562 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 5: talking about kind of understanding how things work and and 563 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 5: so yeah, yeah, I think it's great. But so far 564 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 5: it's been you know, really really great energy. And then today, 565 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 5: like I said, Jak's just happy you couldn't be hit 566 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 5: today because it could have been ugly up there. 567 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 4: I've got to ask you ladies, Oh yeah, this defense 568 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 4: was already. Oh I'm sorry, just no, no, it's okay. 569 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 2: I was just gonna say something too that I've noticed 570 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 2: about Micah from this training camp compared to the last. 571 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 2: What christy two three two right, three three three three 572 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 2: three two three three okay, three, all right? Well is 573 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 2: the maturity level from Michael Parsons. I feel like that 574 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 2: was a part of his game, you know, coming in 575 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 2: and that look, let's face it's most players their rookie year, 576 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 2: maybe even year or two. There's a little bit of 577 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 2: maturity growing that they have to do is as players 578 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 2: and especially understanding how to adapt playing for the Dallas Cowboys, 579 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 2: because it's a whole different ballgame. Even if you come 580 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 2: from a large scale college and you know your media trained, 581 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 2: what have you, when you come here, it's a whole 582 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 2: different thing, right, And so Micah, I feel like, is 583 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 2: very reserved for the most part, and so he had 584 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 2: to do some adjusting, you know, being the star Micah 585 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 2: Parsons on the Dallas Cowboys, Like that's a lot of 586 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 2: pressure to put on a guy you're one. So I 587 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 2: feel like there was just some maturing that had to 588 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 2: be done, and I'm glad to see that. You know, Yes, 589 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 2: he has that beast mode in him, the lion that 590 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 2: comes out especially during practices, and like you're saying, like 591 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 2: Dak's just glad that he didn't, you know, have to 592 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 2: fill the full wrath of it. But also, you know, 593 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 2: maybe a less mature Micah Parsons wouldn't know when to stop. 594 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 2: And so I'm glad he has like that limitation now 595 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 2: of like, okay, just practice. I'm not gonna go fully 596 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 2: after Dak, but I'm also gonna let him know like 597 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 2: I'm not taking it on you easy either, like iron 598 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 2: sharpens iron, and we're playing fully off of that. 599 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 4: I'm gonna ask you ladies this question, since you guys 600 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 4: have been here and been to multiple training camps last 601 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 4: year around this time, how does this defense compare to 602 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 4: where they were last year and now? Of course under 603 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 4: two different defense dcs, but just how would you compare 604 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 4: the two defenses so. 605 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 3: Far as far as how they look. Christy, y'all start 606 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 3: with you. 607 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, you're right, Nicole. It is kind of hard 608 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 5: to compare when you've got two different systems and you 609 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 5: have some younger guys, you know, like when some of 610 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 5: the veteran leadership has gone like a jay Ron Curse 611 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 5: and Stefan Gilmore are gone, yea, and so more opportunities 612 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 5: for young guys DIGS not being out there and nashun 613 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 5: Wright getting the reps up until this point. So I'd 614 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 5: say that's very different. The other thing is with the 615 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 5: defensive tackle spot, young guys in there and just kind 616 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 5: of some I mean, Osa is great. We've talked about 617 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 5: defensive tackles last week, but I'd say that the thing is, 618 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 5: I still have some questions about that, but there have 619 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 5: just been some changes on the defensive side of the 620 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 5: ball with the coaching staff. Night just Mike Zimmer, but 621 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 5: you have Jeffson Ganina in now for defensive line. 622 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 6: Joe Witt's not there anymore. 623 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 5: In the secondary, you still have Al Harris and Canon Matthews. 624 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 5: But I'd say it's just kind of the style of 625 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 5: coaching is different between Scanina and what we had with 626 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 5: Aden Dirty. Adam was the defensive line coach who he left. 627 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 5: He didn't go with Dan Quinn to Washington. He actually 628 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 5: is now the defensive coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks. So 629 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 5: great for Aden, but I just say it just kind 630 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 5: of feels a little different. The way that some of 631 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 5: the coaches do their drills are just kind of the 632 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 5: way that they commune k with the players. 633 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess you know, I think last year all 634 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 2: eyes were on the offense because they were in the 635 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 2: same position, going under a new scheme and having to 636 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 2: learn a new playbook. So for me, I think everybody 637 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 2: kind of took for granted the defense, knowing the DQ 638 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 2: system and understanding it, and you know, it was okay, yeah, 639 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 2: Mike's out there, and you had your key guys playing 640 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 2: at that point, you still had tray Von, you had 641 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 2: Doron Bland coming on his come up, like there were 642 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: already key guys there set that you didn't have to 643 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 2: keep an extra eye on the defense at that point. 644 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 2: I think it was really looking at your draft picks, 645 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 2: you know, very similar to this year. A guy like 646 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 2: Eric Scott were we were watching closely last year. But overall, 647 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 2: I feel like I would be more worried if there 648 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 2: was a drop off from last year to this year. 649 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 2: Not that you're not keeping a closer eye on them 650 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 2: this year, because that's the case with you know, Mike 651 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 2: Zimmer coming in, but you're also not seeing a huge 652 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 2: dip in production, and you're seeing a lot of I 653 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 2: guess miscues miscommunications throughout the defense as a whole. So 654 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 2: I'd say, you know, they're they're not on the same 655 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 2: level because obviously with familiarity with DQ's playbook there was 656 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 2: advantages of that, but there's not a drop off to 657 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 2: having a new system coming in, which again should be 658 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 2: a great indicator that the guys are picking it up 659 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 2: and Zim's making it to the point where it's easy 660 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 2: for them to do that. 661 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 6: For sure. 662 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 4: Well, there's obviously they're gone on a good route right now. 663 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 3: Hopefully there we. 664 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 4: Can continue to see this defense continue to improve over 665 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 4: the next couple of weeks in training camp.

The list goes on, and 757 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 4: the Cowboys certainly had a weak spot in the interior 758 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 4: defensive line in twenty twenty three when you talk about 759 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,839 Speaker 4: Mazzie Smith having to user development year for that also, 760 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 4: Diggy Zoo obviously being the most consistent guy as far 761 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 4: as production but now heading into twenty twenty four, right, 762 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:56,920 Speaker 4: there's still a little questions about that death. 763 00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 3: Christy, y'all start with you. You're starting to see. 764 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 4: A little bit of Carl Davis coming out and run 765 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 4: with the ones mixed with the twos as well. But 766 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:10,319 Speaker 4: are you, I won't say, satisfied with the death, but 767 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 4: are you at least like starting to gain some confidence 768 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 4: or you. 769 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 3: Just need a little bit more I know that word. 770 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 3: I don't know, but Christy, I want to see more. 771 00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 5: Carl Davis is one of these guys, you know, technically 772 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 5: like third year in the league, but Ben been with 773 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 5: several different teams. Let's see, the Cowboys are his seventh 774 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:34,360 Speaker 5: NFL team, originally drafted by Baltimore in the second round 775 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 5: all the way back in twenty fifteen. But he could 776 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 5: be one of these, you know, kind of a good 777 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 5: rotational guy, big, big body to put in there. I 778 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 5: tell you, I'm real interested to see guys, you know, 779 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 5: some of the late round picks here once we get 780 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 5: to the once we get to the preseason games, more 781 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 5: so than against the Rams, because with the Rams, it's 782 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 5: really more about getting the ones and twos, you know, 783 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 5: seeing what they do. But I know that they I 784 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 5: think Jackson and Rogers. Rogers was drafted, you know, they're 785 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 5: going to get a lot of work that you're definitely 786 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 5: big body. 787 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,919 Speaker 6: Guys, and Zimmer is one. 788 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:17,839 Speaker 5: You know, none of these guys are going to put 789 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 5: up big stats in Zimmer's defense. 790 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 6: It's not set up like that. 791 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 5: So trying to measure what they do against like the 792 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,360 Speaker 5: Jonathan Allens and Deron Paynes of the world not fair. 793 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 5: What Zimmer asked these guys to do is the dirty 794 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 5: work and eat up the blocks. And one thing we're 795 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 5: talking about what's different this year when you're looking at 796 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 5: the defense. I should have mentioned this earlier, but you're 797 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 5: seeing more base defense for three three linebackers out on 798 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 5: the field at the same time. Wow, won't that help 799 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:47,439 Speaker 5: with the run defense instead of asking poor Marquise Bell 800 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 5: with his defensive back body to play linebacker. 801 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 6: But but yeah, some. 802 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 5: Of those so Carl Davis one of these experienced guys 803 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 5: that can play behind Masie. But you know, let's let's 804 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 5: let's see. Let's see what you know Daxon can do 805 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 5: and what Justin can do in their time. 806 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 2: Jess, I mean, look, get me somebody who can control 807 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:13,799 Speaker 2: that a gap other than Osa. And here's the thing, 808 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 2: I'm not shading Mazzi. I'm not shading Justin. I'm not 809 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 2: shading any of these guys. It's just after truly learning 810 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 2: the I guess the skill set and knowledge that has 811 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 2: to come with time in the DT position. It's not 812 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 2: just something you get right away, even if you're really 813 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 2: skilled at it coming out of the draft. It takes 814 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 2: time to really understand it. And that's something that I 815 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 2: learned from Jonathan Hankins last year when he really broke 816 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 2: down why Mazzy was struggling so much last year. He 817 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:46,799 Speaker 2: pretty much said, you know, you have to like shave 818 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 2: it all the way back to the basics. Even if 819 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,840 Speaker 2: you think you know, you don't know. And for a 820 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:55,320 Speaker 2: guy like hank who I really I know, he wasn't 821 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,279 Speaker 2: like the end all be all solution of this whole 822 00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 2: depth problem here, but it would have been nice to 823 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:04,319 Speaker 2: continue to see some retention with a veteran guy that 824 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 2: you don't have to build up you know quickly. You're 825 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,000 Speaker 2: not kind of putting this pressure on like hurry, hurry, hurry, 826 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,799 Speaker 2: we need you now. The depth is needed right now. No, 827 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,240 Speaker 2: it's already there. You can step in and be comfortable. 828 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,839 Speaker 2: So for me, I'm gonna be honest, if there's a 829 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 2: most worrisome position on this team right now, it's the 830 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 2: DT room. For me personally, the lack of depth and 831 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 2: injuries happen all the time. You're one away for being like, 832 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 2: oh shoot, what next? You know, So I'm interested to 833 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:38,359 Speaker 2: see after preseason or maybe during preseason if some guys 834 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 2: are brought in. I feel like that would be a 835 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 2: good time to bring some guys in to maybe work 836 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 2: out or see what happens. But I just feel like 837 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 2: the DT position, I mean, you're rolling ankles, you're planting 838 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 2: your feet down so much, it's inevitable that something is 839 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 2: gonna happen. The wear and tear on these guys' bodies 840 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 2: as quickly as it happens because of the strain they're 841 00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 2: putting on. You have three hundred pound men coming at you. 842 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:02,760 Speaker 2: That's gonna do a lot of wear and tear quickly. 843 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 6: People. 844 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 2: I just feel like going into this season, you need 845 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,280 Speaker 2: more depth. It's not a I would like it, obviously 846 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 2: you would like it. It's a neat at this point because 847 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 2: that's the one position that look, it's a trickle effect 848 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 2: that DT position isn't stout enough. Guess what, it's going 849 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 2: to trickle back to your linebackers, and then you're putting 850 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,319 Speaker 2: more wear and tear on your linebackers, and then you 851 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:27,359 Speaker 2: have a beat up Micah Parsons by week eight and 852 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 2: you're wondering, oh, why is he a little bit slower? 853 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:34,319 Speaker 2: If you can just degress that progression so much by 854 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 2: getting you an extra guy. 855 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 6: There, just do it. 856 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 2: So for me, I do worry. I'm not gonna sugarcoat it. 857 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 2: I hella worry about the depth of DT where it 858 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 2: is right now and where it stands. 859 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 3: But at this point do you go out and find someone? 860 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:54,320 Speaker 4: I mean, if so, who well at this point, yeah, 861 00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 4: that would be. 862 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 5: That's the thing that the way rosters are cut is 863 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 5: changed over the last few years. I used to have 864 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:04,120 Speaker 5: two cuts during the course of preseason, before you had 865 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 5: the final roster cuts. You would go from ninety to 866 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,840 Speaker 5: seventy five, seventy five to sixty and then just the 867 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 5: last several guys after that final regular season game. 868 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:14,759 Speaker 6: Now you just go from ninety to fifty three. 869 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 5: So there's a very good chance that there are a 870 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:21,839 Speaker 5: couple of defensive linemen that are going to be on 871 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 5: the fifty three man roster that are in other. 872 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 6: Camps right now. That's just a fact. 873 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,760 Speaker 5: But I would say especially that position, it happens across 874 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 5: the league. 875 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 6: Every roster is going to have some guys, you know 876 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 6: where you're looking to add depth. 877 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:36,759 Speaker 3: So it's the same thing. 878 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,279 Speaker 6: Same thing could happen at running back, who knows. 879 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:43,239 Speaker 5: But yeah, the other thing we mentioned because when I 880 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:46,879 Speaker 5: was talking about Justin and Daxon earlier, those are more 881 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 5: like the big body guys just I. 882 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 6: Think it's worth repeating. 883 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 5: I think we said it about a week week and 884 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 5: a half ago, where Junior Fojoko is not playing end, 885 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 5: he's playing behind Chauncey Goldston, who's behind Osa. I like 886 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:01,799 Speaker 5: the three Tennate thing, and so these guys are more 887 00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:05,560 Speaker 5: kind of like taller, leaner, not the big stout guys 888 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,439 Speaker 5: that play a one technique the really wide body. 889 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:10,840 Speaker 6: Defensive tackles. 890 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 5: So for Hooko, even when you had the injury situation 891 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:19,239 Speaker 5: to Sam Williamsvojoko didn't bump outside. He's still working inside 892 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 5: and being used the same way that the Cowboys used Chauncey. 893 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:23,839 Speaker 6: Golston last year. 894 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:26,439 Speaker 3: Jesse, do you have something real quick? 895 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 2: No, I was just gonna piggyback off of that and 896 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:32,440 Speaker 2: ask both of you what have you seen from Junior 897 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 2: Fojoko overall? I mean, have you seen progression? Have you 898 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 2: seen growth? Have you seen more confidence? Because to me, 899 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:40,959 Speaker 2: it feels like another game of confidence with a guy 900 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 2: like Junior Fojoko, who you know has the opportunity right there, 901 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 2: and it kind of sounds like they're setting it up, 902 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 2: setting him up to have the most success under a 903 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,239 Speaker 2: three tech situation. But what have you guys seen from him? 904 00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 5: If it's worth mentioning, Well, just yeah, really really not 905 00:44:59,200 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 5: that much. 906 00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:03,360 Speaker 6: But but you know, until you. 907 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 5: You just really can't judge it from the sideline and 908 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:07,839 Speaker 5: practice if you're not able to watch the coaches film 909 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 5: and if there's not full contact. So I think both 910 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,799 Speaker 5: Nicole and I might feel like we're speaking out a 911 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 5: turn to try and make a judgment on that. Really 912 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 5: the main thing is alignment, assignment technique. Is he where 913 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:22,840 Speaker 5: he's supposed to be and and you know, taking on 914 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,359 Speaker 5: the blocks the right way and work on off them 915 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:29,400 Speaker 5: and stuff. And but what I'll do is before the 916 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 5: next podcast, see if we can see if we can 917 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:35,440 Speaker 5: talk to some coaches and find out more on Fojoko. 918 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 4: And Mike McCarthy was also asked about that yesterday I'm 919 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:41,319 Speaker 4: sorry today last week, and he had just mentioned that 920 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 4: he just needs more reps, right, I mean, I think 921 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,800 Speaker 4: that's really what it is for a guy like Forjoko. 922 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 4: But I have seen him off to the side, like 923 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 4: d Law has really started to take. 924 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 3: Him under his wing. You've seen him kind of coach 925 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 3: him up a little bit. 926 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 4: I think for him, it's just gonna be about how 927 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 4: much do you sponge it all in, like take it 928 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 4: all in and just keep getting taking advantage. 929 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 3: Of every rep. 930 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 4: Because you're seeing all these young guys take advantage of 931 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:08,160 Speaker 4: all the reps, but they're actually they're producing from it, right, 932 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:10,160 Speaker 4: So I think that that's really what you want to 933 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 4: see more from Fajoko. But only time will tell for him. 934 00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:16,879 Speaker 4: I think for that three tech position you're talking about 935 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:21,960 Speaker 4: Chauncey Golston, who obviously knows that his opportunity, he has 936 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:25,280 Speaker 4: a good opportunity playing behind Olso Diggi Zua as well. 937 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 4: But in terms of Mazzi right supposed to be that 938 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 4: big space eater taking them, being able to take on 939 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:35,439 Speaker 4: double teams, Mazzi's supposed to be the guy this year, 940 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 4: but like we all mentioned, that depth just is not 941 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 4: there and now the Cowboys are possibly going to have 942 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:43,240 Speaker 4: to search for a guy. And that's what we'll probably 943 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 4: talk about next week, ladies, Yeah, hopefully not. 944 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:50,799 Speaker 5: But one more thing about Mazzi real quickly, and that 945 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 5: is during the walk off with coach McCarthy after the 946 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:56,319 Speaker 5: main part of his press conference today, he just kind 947 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,919 Speaker 5: of reminded media it's kind of chied numb for Hey, 948 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:02,680 Speaker 5: you guys really rode this guy hard, and he's like, hey, 949 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 5: remember he's learning a new system too, just like the 950 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:07,759 Speaker 5: offensive guys had to learn. 951 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:08,320 Speaker 3: Yeah. 952 00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 5: Aw, you guys talk about that, well, you got to 953 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 5: think about it with defense too. So two years in 954 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,799 Speaker 5: the league, two different systems that Mazzie is learning. He's 955 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 5: not making an excuse for the guy. He's just presenting 956 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 5: facts as they are. 957 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 3: And also I think he's handling it very well. 958 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 9: Now. 959 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:26,400 Speaker 2: I was gonna say, like people were so quick to 960 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:30,719 Speaker 2: jump on Massie. Media included, fans included, everybody. Everybody was 961 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,080 Speaker 2: so quick to do it. The thing is is, not 962 00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:35,439 Speaker 2: only was he struggling his rookie season, which you've seen 963 00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 2: time and time again from different guys, in different positions. 964 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:41,400 Speaker 2: And yes, he has the US round draft pick, you know, 965 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:46,240 Speaker 2: spotlight right on him, so understandably so you're expected to perform. However, 966 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 2: that DT position we've talked about is just way more 967 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:52,359 Speaker 2: intricate than people understand. And not only that, he gets 968 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 2: injured in the process of all of that, and then 969 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 2: that sets him back even more so. Not making excuses 970 00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,400 Speaker 2: for the guy. He needs to step it up this season, 971 00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 2: playing that down by any means. But he's doing what 972 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 2: he can do right now, which is coming back from injury, 973 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 2: learning a new system, going back to the basics, retraining 974 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,680 Speaker 2: his body, muscle memory. The guy's doing it and I've 975 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 2: seen progress from him, even in just the last two weeks. 976 00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:18,880 Speaker 2: It's little, but it is there. So it's an uphill 977 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:19,600 Speaker 2: battle at this point. 978 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 3: With Mazzi. 979 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, certainly gonna be a lot of fun watching 980 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 4: these guys. Man on Thursday. What are y'all looking forward 981 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:29,839 Speaker 4: to most guys? I've got to ask real quick before 982 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 4: we head out. 983 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, what a y'all looking for for to most on 984 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 3: practice on Thursday? 985 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:34,840 Speaker 6: One versus once? 986 00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 5: And let's see if Tobert and t Billy Tyron, Billy 987 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 5: Johnson and Jalen Brooks. You know, they've looked really good, 988 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:44,800 Speaker 5: but let' see him go against some different corners. 989 00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 6: So I'm really looking forward to that. 990 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:47,840 Speaker 2: I want to see if the run game is in 991 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 2: the room with us.
