If you're a true VET 173 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 4: and you've been around the league. I think about guys 174 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,719 Speaker 4: that are ten eleven years in Dak Prescott like, you 175 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,439 Speaker 4: might not see him as a father figure, but you 176 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 4: might see him as that older big brother that you 177 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 4: talk to. But regardless of what you see, the title 178 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 4: doesn't change what the connection is, and it's family. When 179 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 4: we go over there, we say it's us against the 180 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 4: world and for us to come in there. Sometimes guess what, 181 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 4: it's the head of the family and the dad that 182 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 4: controls everything. But guess what, you got your mom over 183 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 4: here doing this, brother over hear and your son. It's 184 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 4: a job that goes this not just on him, he 185 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 4: says the president, he leaves it, but also that leader 186 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 4: needs help some time, and so you're gonna have your 187 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 4: vets coming in there taking ownerships. You might see some 188 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 4: people coming in here a couple hours earlier, thirty minutes earlier, 189 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 4: a coach howes today, going, are you're good today?

He might just suggest after the day, 193 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 4: be like, this is gonna be their first real work day. 194 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 4: If I'm not mistaken. Coming into the building right after 195 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 4: the bye week they had the meetings on Monday, Tuesday 196 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 4: was a break. Wednesday, they might do some running around. Well, 197 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 4: now you're gonna have your good vets that come in 198 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 4: there and say, hey, coach, energy is there. We're ready 199 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 4: for the raiders. Or they're gonna say, hey, coach, locker 200 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 4: room is not there, so how can we pick it up? 201 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 4: And Shoddy being a good players coach coming in here 202 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 4: galvanizing the troop, that's where he's gonna make the adjustment. 203 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 4: So just like we say, the back end gotta help 204 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 4: the front, the front and help the back well that 205 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 4: goes from the top of ownership gotta help the coaches 206 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 4: and the coaches got to help the players to the players, 207 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,439 Speaker 4: got to help the janitors, everybody that was in there, 208 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 4: because you got to remember, this is a big thing 209 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 4: that you're dealing with. Like these people, the people that 210 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 4: cook for you every day, that's used to seeing you, 211 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 4: my girl Ms Rachel over there. All these people are families, 212 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 4: So it's not just the players. You have to do 213 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 4: the whole environment. And so it's gonna take everybody. 214 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, right now they're back, they're schedul to get back 215 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 2: on the practice field tomorrow. But you know, Koch Shatti 216 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: said spoke today, you see guys kind of trickling in 217 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 2: and out throughout the you know, the entire the entire day. Yeah, 218 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 2: it's again, very very unique situation, a very unique set 219 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: of circumstances that that guys have to go into this 220 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 2: week and figure out a way, right because you know, 221 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 2: the norm is getting back and playing the game. It's 222 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 2: the practices, the meetings, you know, minus your brother. But 223 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 2: it is that that sometimes is the bubble in which 224 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 2: you prefer to be in because it's so common to you. 225 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 4: Yes, I mean. 226 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 5: We're able to compartmentalize so many things as professional athletes 227 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 5: because you have to be hyper focused, you know, but 228 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 5: then at the same time be able to basically multitask 229 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 5: a millions of different things, you know what I mean. 230 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 3: So it's crazy. 231 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 5: To sometimes to sit back and to think about, like, 232 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 5: you know, in situations like this, let people know that 233 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 5: we're just not athletes, we are actually human at the 234 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 5: same time, and with the multitudes of things that we 235 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 5: have to deal with on the field, from the play 236 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 5: calling to schemes, to contracts to whatever the case may be, Like, 237 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 5: you still got to live life, and life is happening regardless. 238 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,719 Speaker 2: Yeah it is, it is, and you got something. 239 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 4: And as life has happened, the one thing, like how 240 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 4: you said, we're so compartmentalized. Like I mentioned that, I 241 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 4: went to the NFL Trust this past weekend and go 242 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 4: do the brain and body thing. But when they talk 243 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 4: to you, they say, man, we've been doing this for 244 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 4: such a long time, some people five plus years, thinking 245 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 4: about your ten year in college, four year, not to 246 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 4: mention little league, you've been doing this over a decade. 247 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 4: Your condition, Like we're creatures of habit and for you 248 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 4: to go in there, what's the one thing we always 249 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 4: hear in football? Next man up? And unfortunately it sounds 250 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 4: really bad. But it's the best thing in this because 251 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 4: you got to try to get back to normalcy as 252 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 4: fast as you can. And so when they go into practice, 253 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 4: when they go out there and work hard, that's going 254 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 4: to feel normal. It's the after effects. It's when you 255 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 4: get tired of practice and you come in there and 256 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:41,559 Speaker 4: that part of even though we're so focused and detail oriented, 257 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 4: that part after that is going to be the hindrance. 258 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 4: And so that's where you feel in your extra time. 259 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 4: And so I wonder how it Shot is going to 260 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 4: implement that him being around guys like Pete Carroll. When 261 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 4: I experienced Pete Carroll, he was one of the best 262 00:12:55,000 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 4: of attacking the player to he attacked the mindset can 263 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 4: better the player. And with Shoddy being under that coaching tree, 264 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 4: his dad being who he is, I'm really excited to 265 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 4: see how he's going to gavilize this truth pressure bus 266 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 4: pipes for McDonald's. So we'll see there it is all right. 267 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 2: So what we'll do is, Chris, we'll take we'll take 268 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 2: an early break right here, and then when we come back. 269 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 2: I want to get into the game. I want to 270 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 2: I want to talk about a little bit about Vegas. 271 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 2: I want to talk a little bit about the Cowboys 272 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 2: and for me, looking at the Vegas defense, right, how 273 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 2: do you stop ninety eight? How do you stop Max Crosby? 274 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 2: Everyone wanted them on this team, wanted him to be 275 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 2: traded for he didn't get happened. Now you have to 276 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 2: face him. I want to talk about the game plan 277 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 2: you guys think the Cowboys should come up with to 278 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 2: stop Max Crosby.

And I'm lining up this this game again, 333 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 2: we already talked about all the unique circuits that come 334 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 2: along with what this week is and this Vegas football team. 335 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 2: When you are to look at him and break them down, 336 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 2: we always look at the record and see the record first, 337 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,199 Speaker 2: and you understand, like that's in the words of the 338 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 2: great Bill Parcels, you are what your record. 339 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 3: Says you are. 340 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,479 Speaker 2: And then you go when you watch a little bit 341 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 2: of the film and you watch a little bit of 342 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 2: tape and you go, okay, you know two and seven. 343 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 2: But because there is a when you look at what 344 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 2: they do defensively, they're not a bad they're bad defense 345 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 2: than we have, like like right now, they're middle of 346 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 2: the league and you know, a lot of people have 347 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:40,479 Speaker 2: asked for if the Cowboys can just get to the 348 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 2: middle of the pack with that level of offense, then 349 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 2: they will be significantly better. The problem is with the 350 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 2: Raiders that you know, offensively, they didn't think that geno 351 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 2: would be this geno, right, This geno wasn't what Pete 352 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 2: Carolyn Company anticipated him coming over from Seattle. But the 353 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 2: main catalyst on that d defense for the Vegas Raiders 354 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:06,120 Speaker 2: is one number ninety eight, Max Crosby. And so. 355 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 4: He is. 356 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 2: And you guys know this, right, I try to tell 357 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 2: fans all the time, is they got iPads now, but 358 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: when I was in the league, they had playbooks, right, 359 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 2: And so you get your game plan playbook every single week, 360 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 2: and when you open it up, if you're an offensive player, 361 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 2: you open it up at the top of the first page. 362 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,160 Speaker 2: They had the guys that you had to worry about, 363 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 2: I know, defense, same thing. You open yours up there 364 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,239 Speaker 2: three guys at the top. You were like, these are 365 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 2: the guy that we gotta focus on and we gotta 366 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 2: watch and we gonna game playing around these dudes. Well, 367 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 2: for the Vegas Raiders, when when Shoddy in that offense 368 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 2: walks into that meeting room, they're gonna open up their 369 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,439 Speaker 2: iPads and he's gonna get them the big screen and 370 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 2: the first name that he's going to put up there 371 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 2: in bold letters, and what a picture up there is 372 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 2: going to be Max Crosby. You think about you talk about, 373 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 2: you know, premiere pass rushers and this defensive edge rushers 374 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 2: in general in the league. You think of Miles Garrett, 375 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 2: you think of Michael Parsons, Max Crosby, t J. Watt, right, like, 376 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 2: those are the names that you and then you can 377 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 2: kind of argue about who else you want to put where, 378 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 2: but those four names. And Max is always in that conversation, 379 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 2: both in the run and in the past. He's talented, 380 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 2: He as a motor, he's the leader, he's the heartbeat 381 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 2: of that defensechise the franchise. So when you see the 382 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 2: way that the Cowboys have been playing with their and 383 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 2: he promamarily lines up on the defensive left side, offensive 384 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 2: right side, and we know what that brings. That brings 385 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 2: Terrence Steele or as coach, Schottenheimer and and and Connor 386 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 2: Riley and company have said, we're gonna have some competition 387 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 2: at the right tackle position. So that's either going to 388 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 2: be Nate Thomas or it's gonna be Terrence Steele. How 389 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 2: would you how would you propose that the Cowboys prepare 390 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 2: and try to maintain a guy like Max Crosby. 391 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 4: Man, it's hard to do that, but he said, he 392 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 4: go get his But it's just about eliminating how much 393 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 4: he gets his, which the best way with your pass 394 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 4: rushers and guys like him or players of his caliber, 395 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 4: running back chips, tight end guys to come over there 396 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 4: playing in off tight end formation. The movement that you 397 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 4: have on the play action pad. That's gonna slow him down. 398 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 4: Having people motion across actually have him thinking, because not 399 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 4: only is he the face of the defense, he does 400 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 4: a lot of thinking. He's almost your general that's over 401 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 4: there calling out the players before you get there. And 402 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 4: for him, it's not that he's the talented or the 403 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 4: most talented as far as having the best get off 404 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 4: or having the a plethora move His best asset is 405 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 4: his effort not being able to die. So when you 406 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 4: say prepared this week, if I'm the coach, I'm going 407 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 4: in there, I'm turning the noise up loud, and I'm 408 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 4: gonna have them doing a lot of Harry up. I 409 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 4: need you to get back on the ball. Try to 410 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 4: make this guy tired, because he's not gonna get tired. 411 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 4: And right now, that's the best way to help your 412 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 4: offensive tackles right now is to have them cardio that 413 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 4: cardio vascular in them ready to go. 414 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 2: So and I'm gonna get to you in the second idea. 415 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 2: I want to I want to stay here because you 416 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 2: played along the defensive line and they lined up Max. 417 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 2: Like I said, his primary spot is on the left 418 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 2: side over the right tackle. But they line him up 419 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 2: in the middle, line him up on the right side, 420 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 2: they line him up, they line him up everywhere. They 421 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:28,239 Speaker 2: line him up all over that offensive line is in 422 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 2: your experience, do you see line sliding his way, sliding 423 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 2: the whole protection his way wherever he's lined that back 424 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 2: because you know, you can't you can't really chip or 425 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 2: double if he's lined up over over, you know, in 426 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 2: the a gaps or something like that. So so like, 427 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 2: what from a defensive perspective, how how will some offensive line? 428 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 2: So how would the Cowboys offensive line do that when 429 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 2: he moves around? 430 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 4: If I was the offensive line the coach thinking on 431 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 4: attacking this guy, you don't have to worry about two 432 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 4: bookie INDs. So you don't have to worry about with 433 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 4: this guy and him being the playmaker like that, You're 434 00:21:57,960 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 4: going to see a lot of full man slides that way. 435 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 4: You're gonna see a lot of run on the motion. 436 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 4: You have Geno Smith back there. That's a mobile quarterback. 437 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 4: So you're gonna kind of tell Gino, hey, you move away. 438 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 4: I mean Dak, I'm sorry, I said Dak. Yes with Dak, 439 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 4: I'm gonna sit there and have Dak moving on the 440 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 4: run with the play action pass, having your emotions going 441 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 4: over there to slow down and just get away from him. 442 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 4: It's not like you have somebody at nose tackle that's 443 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 4: dominant right here. That's a perennial pro bowler. It's just 444 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 4: going right there for him. So that's going to be 445 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 4: the difficulty. But also with that, you're eliminating yourself our 446 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 4: tight end right now. He's bawling right now, and for 447 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 4: us to use him in as a blocker, you're gonna 448 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,239 Speaker 4: call on George Pickens CD the running back. Y'all got 449 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 4: to step up. There's gonna be more opportunity. So it's 450 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 4: a double headed sword, but the best way to do 451 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 4: it full slide with one guy on your d line 452 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 4: versus having two or three guys. 453 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 5: You know, I I being it. I never had to 454 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 5: put my hand in dirt and pay that play that position. 455 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 5: I definitely agree with Trey saying. But another thing that 456 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 5: you got to do too as well. You got to 457 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 5: give an offense a chance to strike him. So you 458 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 5: got to run the ball, all right, and you know, 459 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 5: and then the thing about you know, running the ball 460 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 5: with him, of course, And why I say that, because 461 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 5: of course, you know everybody at home. Offensive pass that 462 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 5: is more so of a catch thing. Offense lineman stepping back, 463 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 5: catching the blocks, trying to you know, keep away from 464 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 5: the quarterback at the point where we're running the ball, 465 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 5: the Cowboys running the ball, that offense lineman gets to 466 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 5: come off the ball and like lay some leather on 467 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 5: somebody across from him. So you definitely want to try 468 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 5: to do that because of course that's going to wear 469 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 5: and tear on him too as well. You get into 470 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 5: some tricky situations, and that's one of the reasons I 471 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 5: think that we haven't seen a lot of the young 472 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 5: backs here because once you start trying to bring backs 473 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 5: in to help with pass protection and things like that, 474 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 5: it doesn't seem like, you know what. I can't speak 475 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 5: for it myself, but you know your backs have to 476 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 5: be good at pass protection where you're leaving them in 477 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 5: all right, And just like you said, with Ferg balling 478 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 5: the way that he's been balling, you don't want to 479 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 5: keep him inside so much as just to help on it. 480 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 5: Help trying to keep a cross away from getting to 481 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 5: the quarterback. So the thing is to be, like I said, 482 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 5: run get the ball out of Dax's hands. As fast 483 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 5: as possible, you know, no more long routes to the materializing. 484 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 5: It's going to take like five four seconds or whatever. 485 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 5: Get that ball out in two seconds however many seconds 486 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 5: you need to get it out and keep trying to 487 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 5: move the ball like that. But like he said, that 488 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 5: dude is a straight hustle guy. He got pass rush 489 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 5: moves and everything else like that. But his will to 490 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 5: win is one of his greatest assets. So you know, 491 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 5: when you play against people like that, it's gonna be 492 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 5: a long day. 493 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 3: Regardless. 494 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,959 Speaker 2: When you talked about running the ball at Max Crosby 495 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 2: and just running the ball in general. Stat to kind 496 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 2: of go with that, the Cowboys are three to zero 497 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 2: to one when Javonte Williams has one hundred yards from 498 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 2: scrimmage in their own five when he doesn't. So I 499 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 2: think that is also important and critical, you know, you 500 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 2: know in it all now you know the you know 501 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 2: when you when I went back and I was watching 502 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 2: a little bit of the Broncos game that they played, 503 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 2: and they they they fared well against the Broncos. They 504 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 2: held the Bronco I think the ten points, two and 505 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 2: twenty yards. You know, of offense, it's it's It's kind 506 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 2: of a lot of teams have come and played the 507 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 2: Cowboys and looked like world beaters, and then they go 508 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 2: on to the next game after the Cowboys and it 509 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 2: looked like they looked very, very very mundane and average. Right, 510 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 2: But was that, well what we saw against Denver from 511 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 2: this defense? Does that worry you a little bit when 512 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 2: it comes up to the Cowboys office, because it's kind 513 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 2: of been staggering the last couple of weeks. 514 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 3: You know. I think of like, we're new, he's here. 515 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 5: We always say certain styles make fights and everything else 516 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:31,880 Speaker 5: like that. 517 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 3: That's the team. 518 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 5: They played Chether twice a year every year. Yeah, you know, 519 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 5: they're more than familiar with each other. So when it 520 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 5: comes down to it, I think that that played into 521 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 5: it a little bit at the same time. 522 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 2: And their team is built like you normally you build 523 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 2: your team guys in your. 524 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 3: Division exactly right what I'm saying. 525 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 5: So, so that that was that was definitely a benefit 526 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 5: for the Raiders that night. I think that that was 527 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 5: such a low scoring game. I can't remember what the 528 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 5: score was, but I know, you know, and going into 529 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 5: those games, you know, being yeah, you know, being a 530 00:25:59,119 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 5: Raider too as well. 531 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 3: Anytime you had those divisional. 532 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 5: Games, it didn't matter what was going on, whether it 533 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 5: was Denver, the Chiefs or whoever. Like, those games were 534 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 5: just typically going to be some hard fock games, you know. So, 535 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 5: But do I think that that's that that that's what 536 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 5: we have to look for it from the question was 537 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 5: from from the Raiders or the defense. Yeah, I think 538 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 5: that that's that's that's part of their identity right now, 539 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 5: you know, And that's that's been something that they've been 540 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 5: trying to establish for the last few years there with 541 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 5: the different changes in different head coaches and everything else 542 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 5: like that, the defense can travel. They brought Devin White 543 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 5: in as as a linebacker, and you know, one of 544 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 5: one of one of my former teammates is actually the 545 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 5: secondary coach out there too as well, and I know 546 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 5: how he gets down and how he coaches. So that 547 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 5: defense right now is trying to be, like I guess 548 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 5: you could say, one of the saving graces of that 549 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:46,919 Speaker 5: team if they have one, because you said Gino is 550 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 5: not the geno that we saw the past two years 551 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 5: where he got there. 552 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 2: Gino said, they wrote me off, but I didn't right 553 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 2: back lost in the. 554 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 4: Don't do that. 555 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 2: I'm just saying this. You know, just Gino that's playing 556 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 2: you know right about now, isn't isn't what people thought that, 557 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 2: you know, it would be from the Cowboys. Like, let's 558 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 2: just talk about the Cowboys offensive perspective a little bit here, 559 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 2: because we talked about Max Crosby and stopping Max Crossby. 560 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 2: You know, this offense has been a little bit, like 561 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 2: I said, staggering in the last couple of weeks. It 562 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 2: came out the gates against the Philadelphia Eagles in formidable, 563 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,919 Speaker 2: and then they took took off and even with the 564 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 2: absence of CD Lamb, it's still was one of the 565 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 2: best defenses in the entire football league. What are some 566 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 2: of the things they have to do to get back 567 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:41,239 Speaker 2: to that? Was it opponent base? Was it just the 568 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 2: ebb and flow of the season? What are something that 569 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 2: they do to get back to that? 570 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 3: Real quick before he jumps into it. 571 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 5: I really think that what happened was with the loss 572 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 5: of CD, the team had to figure out what they 573 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,439 Speaker 5: were going to do, right. They didn't know that George 574 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 5: was going to ball out like that, so the balance 575 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 5: seemed like that was gonna be the most the best 576 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 5: thing we could do, and let's make sure we got 577 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 5: some balance. George comes out here and likes this thing 578 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 5: on fire. The next thing, you know, it was like, okay, well, 579 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 5: you know, we got to get CD back into it 580 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 5: too as well. And I don't know if it was 581 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 5: that to change the balance of what the play call 582 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 5: has been, but just like you said, like they've gotten 583 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 5: away from the run, like in such a large amount 584 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 5: that they were doing before, and now I just think 585 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 5: that like they honestly got to try to figure out, Okay, 586 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 5: George can play, CD can play, but we got to 587 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 5: get back to some true balance here. 588 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 3: And I'm sorry, I just oh, no, you good. 589 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 4: I mean, honestly, those are my safe sentiments as far 590 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 4: as not necessarily getting back to it, but trust in yourself, 591 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 4: Like stop playing down when they go out there. We've 592 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 4: seen this offense be the best majority of the time, 593 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 4: but we've also seen them play down to their competition, 594 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 4: regardless of what that is. And so I would just say, 595 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 4: get back to playing football, get back to having fun, 596 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 4: Get CD out there doing celebrations with George, get Javonte 597 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 4: getting his touches, moving the ball, running over there, Get 598 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 4: that offense a line ain't too feeling confident like they're 599 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 4: going to get against one guy right now, and just 600 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 4: really trust your football, trust the schematics, and use that pressure. 601 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 4: But the biggest thing right now is you have to 602 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 4: get back to knowing your true identity. Because as much 603 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 4: as we talk about Mass Crosby, we're not talking about 604 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 4: this guy right here. Patrick Graham, the defensive coordinator that 605 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 4: has a lot of respect around there, that was over 606 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 4: there at the Giants for many years and seeing guys 607 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 4: like Dak Prescott, a young CD Lamb. So he has 608 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 4: some familiarity over here, and he's a good defensive coordinator 609 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 4: that can make these adjustments, and so he's gonna want 610 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 4: to use that. He's gonna want to use the momentum 611 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 4: that he has right now coming and playing a good defense. 612 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 4: Pete Carroll being the defensive dominant head coach, me being 613 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 4: around him, I know him the way that he's going 614 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 4: to go in there and talk to them. He's going 615 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 4: to say, hey, gud, forget what the record says, go 616 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 4: in here and look what we just did this last week. 617 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 4: He's going to show them their highlight table, make them 618 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 4: believe in it and eat it and say, hey, defense, 619 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 4: y'all are the backbone right now. So the Cowboys should 620 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 4: be worried about this game, and this can be one 621 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 4: of those trap games that makes me a little nervous 622 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 4: right now. 623 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 2: All right, so we'll take our last break of the show. 624 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 2: When we come back, I want to get a little messy. 625 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 4: Ah, yeah, you go, you go. 626 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 2: I want to get a little messy because you you 627 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 2: spark something that that that has been has a little 628 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 2: bit of a little bit of a smoldering heat to it. Ok, 629 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 2: And so I want to get a little bit messy 630 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:31,959 Speaker 2: and see where there's smoke or smoldering will be an 631 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 2: absolute fire.

Barry 688 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 2: is somewhere being rich as he as he shook. All right, 689 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 2: when you're rich, you did do rich stuff. I got 690 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 2: Demontree Moore, I got Anthony dor sat And so I 691 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 2: told you, guys, there's been this this smoldering and it's 692 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 2: not caught fire yet, but it's smoldering, okay. And you 693 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 2: made a comment ad and it literally jumped like right 694 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 2: to the forefront of my thinking. And so I'm like, 695 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 2: you know what, what the hell, let's get that messy. 696 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 2: Let's get a little messy. And the comment that you 697 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 2: made was that when Ceedee Lamb went out with the injury, 698 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 2: with the ankle injury that he had against that he 699 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 2: got against the Bears, and he missed those three or 700 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 2: four games. You know, George Pickts really ascended and really 701 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 2: took off and was the focal point of this passing offense. 702 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,240 Speaker 2: And some may say that when Ceedee Lamb came back, 703 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 2: that balance or that cohesion or that chemistry was kind 704 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 2: of not what it was before the injury, and that 705 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 2: it may felt like they were kind of, you know, 706 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 2: forcing the ball there. And some people, not Jesse Holly, 707 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,760 Speaker 2: but some people have been saying, you know, we need 708 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:54,399 Speaker 2: to focus and make the offensive passing game focused around 709 00:34:55,520 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 2: George Piketts, not CD Lamb. And so here's something. Here 710 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 2: are some of the numbers. Pickens has a higher catch 711 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:09,359 Speaker 2: percentage yards per catch, His yards per game UH per 712 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 2: game average is more than Lamb. He's also has six 713 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 2: touchdowns to Lamb's touchdown. He has a higher PFF grade. 714 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 2: Uh So, my messy Jesse question to you, a d 715 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 2: to you, Demontrey, should George Pickens become Dak Prescott's new 716 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 2: go to receiver? 717 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 5: You know, I think that what GP had a favorable 718 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 5: advantage of and don't and don't cancel out what he's done. 719 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 3: Over previous years. 720 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 5: But he was not that go to guy, and so 721 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 5: going into a lot of those games, he was not 722 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:51,879 Speaker 5: viewed as a CD Lamb. 723 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 3: Type receiver prior to those games. 724 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 5: Okay, so he wasn't he We don't got to double 725 00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 5: that dude all the time. 726 00:35:58,160 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 4: We don't. 727 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 5: We don't necessarily got here do a whole lot. We 728 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 5: don't need to worry so much about him right now. 729 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 5: Second game into that that injury with CD, I think 730 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 5: that's where people started to take notice and say, Okay, well, 731 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 5: you know, maybe he is that number one guy. You know, 732 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 5: this league is such a what have you done lately 733 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 5: for me? League that people will tend to forget you know, 734 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:19,800 Speaker 5: exactly who you are and what you're cable of doing. 735 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 5: Long story short to answer the question is should he be? 736 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 5: I think there are games where he definitely should be, 737 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 5: and CD should definitely be. From time to time, when 738 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 5: you have such a two headed monster like that, I 739 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 5: think that you could switch it up and attack him 740 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 5: from all different angles. 741 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 3: And it doesn't necessarily have to be wrong. 742 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,919 Speaker 5: Or right who that guy is on that particular day, 743 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,839 Speaker 5: just as long as somebody is that guy all right 744 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,799 Speaker 5: and not going to a place where you can't figure 745 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 5: out how to make one guy or the other the 746 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 5: guy that neither one of them actually get to go 747 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 5: out there and have prolific type numbers that they can have. 748 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 5: So do I think he should be the main go 749 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,720 Speaker 5: to guy? I think that it should be game planned. 750 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 5: I think it should be schemed. But I think that yeah, 751 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 5: he definitely should have that option or that benefit every 752 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 5: once in a while. Why why why continue for a 753 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 5: gamesmanship as we'd like to say, continue to make CD 754 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 5: the primary dude every game, all game, you know what 755 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 5: I mean? So, like, I think it would give the 756 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 5: Cowboys a little bit of competitive advantage to be able 757 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 5: to use them both but trick teams and not know 758 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 5: which guy is gonna be able to do it. 759 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 3: But you got two number one? So why not use 760 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 3: two number one? As we can't? 761 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 2: Coach Schottenheimer has said when they were asking about not 762 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,319 Speaker 2: this week, but a couple of weeks ago, maybe even 763 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 2: at the training camp, and they were talking about the 764 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 2: addition of George Pickers and how he and Cedee Lamb 765 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 2: are working on the offensing, Coach Shottenheimer's you know, he said, 766 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 2: cause the question was about how do you disperse the 767 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,839 Speaker 2: ball monks all of these weapons that you now have. 768 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 2: You have Ferd, you have CD, you have George, you 769 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 2: got Javonte, you have you know, a pluthoro of weapons 770 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:56,360 Speaker 2: that you have into this mix. And Coach Schottenheimer he 771 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 2: said that you know. He said, I gotta, I gotta. 772 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,240 Speaker 2: I got a big on sheet. His has got rings 773 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 2: on it. So they like they flip. They got flipped, 774 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 2: they flip over. And he was like, well, I got 775 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,959 Speaker 2: I got a section that's for CD. And he said 776 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 2: that section has more plays on it. And he said, 777 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 2: I got a section for George Pickens. Now he has 778 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 2: a lot of players on there, but he doesn't have 779 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,879 Speaker 2: more plays on there than Ceedee Lamb, and so on 780 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:20,880 Speaker 2: and so forth, and and and so I say to 781 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 2: to what you said. 782 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:22,399 Speaker 4: You know. 783 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase in Cincinnati, they get him the ball and Tie. 784 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 3: Higgins is good. 785 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,360 Speaker 2: Pee Higgins is perfectly fine, could probably be a number 786 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 2: one receiver if he wasn't flanked across that guy. And 787 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 2: for as long as I've been doing this, and Ceedee 788 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 2: Lamb has been the league, especially over the last couple 789 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:54,399 Speaker 2: of years, he's been grouped in with those guys. He's 790 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 2: been grouped in with the Ceedee Lamb, Jamar Chase. Justin Jefferson, 791 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 2: when Tyreek Hill was Tyreek Hill, you could say I'm 792 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 2: a Rod Saint Brown like Ceedee Lamb's name has always 793 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:14,920 Speaker 2: been in that conversation. Never has George Pickens never, never, ever, ever. 794 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 5: I will say this, all right, CD, has he proved 795 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 5: me wrong? Okay, because as we always say, well not always, 796 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,759 Speaker 5: but as we've said in here before, Cowboys talent is 797 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 5: always a little bit overrated from time to time. 798 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 4: Okay. 799 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,879 Speaker 5: And so that being said, like I didn't I didn't 800 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 5: see CD being what he is today, all right now. 801 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,360 Speaker 5: The only argument I can make for George before he 802 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:40,359 Speaker 5: got here, he didn't have Dak Prescott. He didn't have 803 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 5: a scheme like this, He didn't have He just wasn't 804 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 5: on the right team. 805 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:45,240 Speaker 3: And he wasn't getting. 806 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 2: To use one of your words, your phrase is my 807 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,760 Speaker 2: devil's advocate to that is ceedee Lamb has seventeen hundred 808 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:54,880 Speaker 2: yards over one hundred and thirty five catches, and he 809 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 2: ain't had no George Picks across from him. So he 810 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 2: had and it was we jokingly said here, it was 811 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 2: CD in a bunch of babies. So he was getting 812 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 2: the double teams, he was getting the safety shed you know, 813 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 2: shedding to his side. 814 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 5: Of this had justin Fields throwing him the ball, and 815 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,680 Speaker 5: like Mason Rudolph or somebody like that. 816 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 2: That's a fair argument. It's a fair argument it's a 817 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:21,759 Speaker 2: fair it's a fair argument. And so I come to you, Trey. 818 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 2: I've presented the question. We've heard one side of it. 819 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:28,960 Speaker 2: You heard my side of it. 820 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:31,839 Speaker 4: I mean I heard your side. So what do you saying. 821 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 2: You're saying no, I've been saying I've been saying this 822 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 2: since day one.

Ceedee Lamb is the number one. 829 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 2: Ceedee Lamb has shown you time and time and Ceedee 830 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 2: Lamb was still out there last year with one arm, 831 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 2: with a backup quarterback, when he could have easily shut 832 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 2: it down when it wasn't playoffs, wasn't even nowhere near 833 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 2: in sight, and he went out there weekend and week out, 834 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 2: what with jay O Tober on the other side, and 835 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 2: and and and and Jake Ferk wasn't on this team. 836 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 2: It was hurt and I don't. 837 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 5: Know, people shut it down, bro, Like I hear you 838 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:38,359 Speaker 5: say that, like you could have shut it down. 839 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 4: They shut it. 840 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 2: People, people, people shut it down. 841 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 5: But but those aren't the football players that we talked about. 842 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 4: But it actually is though. It actually a lot of 843 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,440 Speaker 4: a lot of guys shut it down. You've seen You've 844 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 4: seen Tyreek Hills. 845 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 2: And he and he went out there. He went out 846 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 2: there and put up some more good numbers with the 847 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 2: backup quarterback and old opposite receiver. The season was pretty 848 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 2: much cooked, and he just went out there and went 849 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 2: to work every single day. So I've been saying this, 850 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:13,759 Speaker 2: I stand on this, and this is this is I 851 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,319 Speaker 2: had a lawful from this. I ain't rolled the fits 852 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 2: about this since training camp. I think George is an 853 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:21,760 Speaker 2: exceptional player. 854 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 3: I think CD is good. Let me shut up, go ahead, 855 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 3: go ahead. 856 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 2: I forget said I think I think George is an 857 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 2: exceptional player. I think he has a Niam Lilson, whatever 858 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:36,800 Speaker 2: his name is. He has a particular set of skills 859 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 2: that is really good at Liam Nilsen Ceedee Lamb is 860 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 2: the better overall receiver. To me, I'll give it to you. 861 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:49,800 Speaker 4: I know I'm just a defensive guy and this and that. 862 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 4: But like you said, you mentioned earlier. What have you 863 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 4: done for me lately? Is the league? It's been the 864 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 4: league since the league has started. You're only good as 865 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 4: your last rep and your last rep. Hear me out 866 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 4: of America, I stand on mine. You can go look 867 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 4: up the film. Chris Bean can talk about it in 868 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,439 Speaker 4: the back. But how many times have I been laying 869 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 4: it up, asking questions weekend in week out? When do 870 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 4: we give this to George? And I say that to 871 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 4: say that George right now is the number one. He 872 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 4: has the hot head. Just like in basketball, you don't 873 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 4: get off of the shooters and right now the guy. Yes, 874 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 4: you pay CD to do all this, but if you're 875 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:26,799 Speaker 4: truly believing what you said and what you forced fed 876 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:28,880 Speaker 4: to the media saying this is a one A and 877 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 4: the one not you but CD. This just came out 878 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,359 Speaker 4: of CD's mouth. This has came out of shot his mouth. 879 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 4: This just came out of everybody's mouth. But George, George 880 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 4: did nothing but coming here, be quiet, work and putting 881 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:45,359 Speaker 4: the extra effort to say, hey, I'm gonna show y'all 882 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 4: what I am. And now that he has a quarterback, 883 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 4: he's doing all those things. And when I look at 884 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:53,279 Speaker 4: George right now, where he's going with his momentum. He 885 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 4: gives me a young Mike Evans. He's going out there. 886 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 4: He's the guy that's the era up there. He's bringing 887 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 4: the energy. He's going out there blocking people and telling 888 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,920 Speaker 4: people six seven like I'm catching a body while doing that. 889 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 4: Like with CD, yes he can catch. Yes, he can 890 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:10,879 Speaker 4: run every route on the tree and you can move 891 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 4: him around. But guess what, you score a touchdown. George 892 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,759 Speaker 4: is doing that by far. He's blocking by far, and 893 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 4: he's the energizer. Why would you say, hey man, let 894 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:23,440 Speaker 4: me diminish this because this guy has the big name contract. 895 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 4: Let me diminish this because we're force feeding CD to 896 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 4: be in those conversations. Right now, go with the hot hand. 897 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 4: Get you what was doing because guess what, when George 898 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 4: was your number one, the offense was doing good. When 899 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:39,120 Speaker 4: CD came back and George was still quote unquote getting 900 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 4: fed those numbers and doing that, CD was doing better. 901 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 4: So right now, lead, go with your leading horse. 902 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,600 Speaker 5: You've had you've had an opportunity to watch CD work 903 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 5: for since he's been here. 904 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 3: And like right here on the field, you ain't had 905 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 3: that with George. 906 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 5: You haven't seen it, so like, and then what you 907 00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 5: what you've seen is you've seen the different opportunities that 908 00:44:58,080 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 5: CD has got. 909 00:44:58,680 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 3: Because you're right here. 910 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,880 Speaker 5: You haven't seen the playbook, the play calls, or anything 911 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 5: like that that George has had or the opportunities that 912 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 5: he's had. So I think that what honestly has to happen. 913 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 5: And I think that you know, like how you said 914 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:12,719 Speaker 5: America's standing over, I think you're a little bit judgmental 915 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:14,840 Speaker 5: right now, based off of what you've been able to 916 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 5: see of one and that of the other. 917 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 3: You got a whole book of one, but. 918 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,840 Speaker 2: I've watched both.

See these numbers or ce these numbers. 940 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,400 Speaker 5: He got some awesome numbers. But he's not a Jamar Chase. 941 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 3: He's not. He's just not and and and Jamar. 942 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,800 Speaker 5: Chase is totally different than me when it comes to 943 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,239 Speaker 5: a lot of receivers, you know. 944 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 3: But he got those numbers and he's right up there 945 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 3: with him. 946 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 4: All right. 947 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 5: Now, I'm looking at give give George Pickings the opportunity 948 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 5: minus the CD lamb here, all right and put CD 949 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 5: in Pittsburgh, and let's see what they actually let's compare that, 950 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 5: you know what I mean, And let's let's honestly, let's 951 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 5: let's give George the opportunity to have the opportunities and 952 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 5: CD has had because he hasn't had him since he's 953 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 5: been here or anywhere else. 954 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 4: Can we take it a step further to I guess 955 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:45,319 Speaker 4: help your case.

But 956 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:47,960 Speaker 4: what is the big thing that everybody go do right 957 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 4: now to check your credibility and how good you are? 958 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:55,280 Speaker 4: Pff pff goes be not you. But I'm saying most people, 959 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:58,359 Speaker 4: when you make these lists and talk about these top receivers, 960 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:01,520 Speaker 4: you go and with PF the way that you judged 961 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,759 Speaker 4: America with the PFF, y'all should know you go for 962 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,160 Speaker 4: your production to play ratio. If you're looking at that 963 00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:11,879 Speaker 4: ratio and what CD has gotten over his overall body 964 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 4: at work. And like you said, ad from what we've 965 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:17,319 Speaker 4: seen in this little bit of George in this year, 966 00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:20,840 Speaker 4: like it's all been good, like the I feel like 967 00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:23,800 Speaker 4: the potential and the ceiling is a lot higher because 968 00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 4: we haven't seen all this. This is his first year 969 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,920 Speaker 4: in the offense. This is the first year with a 970 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 4: good quote unquote top five quarterback in the league. So 971 00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:34,839 Speaker 4: I think the ceiling is higher for him to where 972 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:38,439 Speaker 4: it's like you said, I've seen CD already for these 973 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,879 Speaker 4: Plethorabia is here with dak with the backups and in 974 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 4: the Dallas environment. Let me let me fan that fire 975 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,239 Speaker 4: right there. You got Amber, you got the smolder going 976 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 4: over there with George. Why not see what you really have? 977 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:52,120 Speaker 4: So at the end of the year when it comes 978 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:53,919 Speaker 4: that time, are you gonna tag him? Are you really 979 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:55,840 Speaker 4: gonna pay him like a number one? Or is it 980 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:57,760 Speaker 4: going to be a Jamar Chase and the T Higgins 981 00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 4: type situation? You don't know right now? Mmm. 982 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,840 Speaker 3: Man, I just say I hear numbers lying.
