Welcome 8 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: into the SWBC studios at the Star in Frisco as 9 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: we continue to break down what happened on Sunday afternoon 10 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: in Kansas City at Arrowhead Stadium nineteen to nine. The 11 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: final scores the Kansas City Chiefs takedown the Dallas cow 12 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: That is the right word to say it an ugly 13 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: game for the Cowboys, an ugly game overall. And there 14 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,759 Speaker 1: are some positives to take out of it. Don't be worried. 15 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: There are a couple of them, and we're gonna talk 16 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 1: about it. Let's find them. We're gonna find some positive 17 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: But the offense just basically didn't pick up the defense. 18 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: And that's where we're gonna talk about throughout the course 19 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 1: of the day. Heck Ma Harrison, Isaiah stand back. Rob Phillips. 20 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 1: We've got Chris Beam in the back as always. I'm 21 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: Kyle Yeoman's and Rob. Where do we start? I mean, 22 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: in an atmosphere like Arrowhead Stadium, you were out there, 23 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: you were on the sideline, it was bumping, and it 24 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: really just looked like the Cowboys weren't ready for the 25 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: bigger lights. Yeah, that was your that was the show, rundown. 26 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: It was the moment too big, right, yep. I don't 27 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: know if I can dispute that because they lost. They 28 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: put up nine points and we're not competitive enough to 29 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: win that game against the team that's been the class 30 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: of the NFL for the last three years. So fine, 31 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: but I think from a media perspective, I think that's 32 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: a nice little bow to put on a game where 33 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: a lot of factors led to that result. Whether it 34 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,279 Speaker 1: was guys missing, no excuses, but it was a factor 35 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: in the game. And they didn't give themselves enough of 36 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 1: a chance to win that game either. They came out 37 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 1: and played a sloppy game, and you can't do that 38 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: against Pat Mahomes in the Chiefs, who, by the way, 39 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: that They played some sloppiness too, and beat themselves in 40 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: some regard, But I think that's that's a convenient way 41 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: to tie it all together. The fact is they got outplayed, 42 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: They missed some guys that would have helped, and they 43 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: didn't do enough to prevent beating themselves in this game. 44 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: And you can't do that against the Chiefs on the road. Isaiah. 45 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: We talked about it all week. We talked about the environment. 46 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: We talked about you know, how you can't make mistakes, 47 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: you can't make things more difficult, you can't give mahomes 48 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: more opportunities, you know. To Rob's point, I do agree. 49 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: I don't think that they were up for it. I 50 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: think that they tried. I think they really do think 51 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: they tried. I think they tried their best, but ultimately 52 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: mistakes happened, Opportunities weren't taking avantge of they didn't take 53 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: advantage of the fact that Kenna City wasn't playing very 54 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: well either. They were dropping balls left and right. And 55 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: when you have all those things, when when you have 56 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: those opportunities, you have to see them. You have to 57 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: see them, especially when you're in an environment as crazy 58 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: as that one. I mean, you got Ken city over 59 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 1: there dancing and swag surfing and doing a gritty and 60 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 1: everything else, and you know, you don't, you don't find 61 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 1: a way. I think there was some definitely some bright moments. 62 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 1: Heckma's Heckma's boy, you know, the boom or whatever you 63 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,519 Speaker 1: called on the Zuka Bazuka. The Bazuka was out, but 64 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: Zuka was out, he was he was bawling. I feel 65 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: like individuals like that stepped up. I feel like they 66 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: liked the environment, they liked the heightened sense of urgency. 67 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: I think some guys respond well to that, but a 68 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: lot of our guys did not. Pissed off over here. 69 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: Guys hotter than a chunk sun sweating, hotter than a 70 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: chunk of sound meteor man reference right there. I don't know, 71 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: but that's how hot I am. You know the thing 72 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: that I have a problem with obviously, it was an 73 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: ugly game from the beginning. That's you know, you know, 74 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: after Stevie one that could see that we could not 75 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: get anything going at all. What I have a problem. 76 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: The biggest thing that I have a problem with it 77 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: and you you sent this to us and says, is 78 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: the moment too big for this team? I have a 79 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: problem with them not being ready for these games. The 80 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: first series is where they're kind of like dream you know, 81 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: they're just kind of walking, sleep walking through this. Uh. 82 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 1: And I felt like that, and Troegman even said that 83 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: at one point, like I'm used to seeing Dallas bring 84 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: the physicality in games, I'm not used to them being 85 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: the receiver of it. And and that was what was 86 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: happening from the jump, and you we saw it on 87 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: the from the defensive line and sometimes with the offensive line. 88 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: They were winning the battle upfront. The defense responded, they 89 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: woke up, and they started to take the battle to 90 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: Kansas City. But you know, talking about them being the 91 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: class of the league and what they've done, I think 92 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: we respected them way too much. We saw situations with 93 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: Hill where man, it was maybe guys were freelancing and 94 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: thinking that Mahomes was going to go to Hill in 95 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 1: certain instances. And I'm only thinking about that Pringle pass 96 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: where it's like thirty seven yards and Tyreech just cleared 97 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 1: out the whole side. Yeah. And you know, and I understand, 98 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: like you watch film all week and you're honing in 99 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: on number ten and you're telling yourself, we cannot get 100 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 1: beat and let this guy get behind us. But a 101 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: lot of times again, especially in that first series of 102 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: the first quarter, I just think they were showing too 103 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: much respect that were blown coverages Defensively, I thought that 104 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: dan Quinn was just giving up way too much to 105 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 1: not sacrifice heat. Obviously didn't want to give up the 106 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: big play. But if you told me coming into this morning, 107 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: if I didn't see the game and all I saw 108 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 1: was Kansas City stats and we held them to that. 109 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: Looking at Patrick Mahomes's numbers, I say the Cowboys win 110 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: that game by twenty points. We won that game because 111 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: none of their receivers were over one hundred yards, none 112 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 1: of their running backs were over one hundred yards. And 113 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: to me, that's a game that the Dallas Cowboys win. 114 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: But you can't win that game playing that sloppy. I 115 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: think that's the most upsetting thing for me in the 116 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: loss is the fact you kind of like how you 117 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: said it was upsetting to see that they slept walk 118 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: in the opening quarter and they just never got really 119 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: any kind of rhythm going. My thing was throughout the game, 120 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: you expected both offense, both offenses to wake up. You 121 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: expected Kansas City to find a groove. You expected Dallas 122 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 1: to find a group, and whichever one was going to 123 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: find a group first was ultimately going to win the 124 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: ball game. And so you kept that hope alive of saying, 125 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: Dallas has an opportunity on this drive, how about this 126 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: on this drive, Isaiah and I were talking about it 127 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: in studio. This is a hope drive. This is to 128 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: take the game back drive, and it never happened. You 129 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,799 Speaker 1: couldn't put it together enough on the offensive end to 130 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: complete what defensively was actually a really really good ball game. Yeah, 131 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: I think. I mean, I'm kind of torn. So I 132 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: know our defense played competitive and mostly our front seven 133 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: there in the second half, I feel like our DBS 134 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: really started getting County in the hit pocket beyond. Kens 135 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: City dropped a lot of balls. Kensondy dropped a lot 136 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: of balls. In my opinions, I feel like the way 137 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: we were ineffective offensively for the most part, I feel 138 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: like Kansas City was equally ineffective. But we talked about 139 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: how you can't get behind Kansas City. You cannot get 140 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: behind and we started the game out what a three 141 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: and out? We started out what would have missed almost 142 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: should have been touchdown probably and you missed a drop 143 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: pass on third down. You can't start like that, and 144 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: then you give the ball right back to Kansas City 145 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: and they go nine plays eighty six yards and rent 146 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: a dog on draw play with Kelsey. That's how the 147 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: game started. That's how to started in that environment. And 148 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: you expect to try to come back from that. That's unrealistic. Yeah, 149 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: And to Heck's point, like Mike McCarthy said it, the speed, 150 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: It took them a little while to get going, so 151 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: you can you can argue that that part of it. 152 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: They weren't. They weren't into the game early enough in 153 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: the game. And I thought, and Michael Parson spoke to this, defensively, 154 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: it looked like Kansas City their first fifteen plays, they 155 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: had some stuff in the bag and it was working. 156 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: I thought they did a nice job of adapting. I think, look, 157 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: the strength of this team has been the offense for 158 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: ten games. No Tyrant Smith again, they plug in a 159 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: new left guard. That didn't work. They you know, I'm 160 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 1: not it's not all on conroom government, but they did 161 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: not win the line of scrimmage. And that was the 162 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,239 Speaker 1: same problem against Denver. Couldn't win the line of scrimmage. 163 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: And then you factor Amari Cooper not being in there. 164 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if people made enough of that, because look, 165 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: they've they've dealt without Michael Gallup for several games. But 166 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper would have been very nice in this game 167 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: as a possession receiver. It's why he was my draft 168 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: Kings guy Friday to kind of just settle down and 169 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: get those little eight yard games, move the chains, take 170 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: away some coverage because look, Ceedee Lamb was bracketed the 171 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: entire game. It seeming like that was a big factor 172 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: in the game. It's usually Amari Cooper. And I'm not 173 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: I'm not making excuses. I'm just saying, just watching the game, 174 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: those two things were a factor against the Kansas City defense. 175 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 1: That many they're coming on the month of November. They've 176 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: got up an average eleven points a game. So and 177 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: Chris Jones wrecked the game, no question about it. Up front, 178 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: went right at that interior line that is young and 179 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: is inexperienced, Terrence Steele, Connor McGovern and Tyler Beyond is 180 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: still a young guy too. But he picked on Martin too. 181 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: He got a sack on it. Was it a sack 182 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: on it. He's that good He's that good. Now, who 183 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: was the biggest missing piece on the offensive side? Was 184 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: it Amari Cooper? Was it Tyrn Smith? Because both of 185 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: those guys when we recorded this game or the show 186 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: on Friday, we thought both of those guys were going 187 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: to be available. We had no idea that Mary Cooper 188 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: was going on the COVID list. We had no idea 189 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: that Tyrn Smith was going to be held out. We 190 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: had all the indications going into it that it was 191 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 1: thumbs up, thumbs up, thumbs up, and then he was 192 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: gonna be ready. We knew there was a chance of 193 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: no Tyrant Smith. But yeah, because I've said, like, they 194 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: think they have to figure out how to manage him 195 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: over this stretch. Ye, so they ultimately decided, look trying 196 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: to play him Sunday and then turn around and play 197 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: him Thursday. It was going to be tough. No, So 198 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: I think he's got a chance to play Thursday, but 199 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: they you know, yeah, I don't don't know what I 200 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: think that it was both the problem. You know, tyran 201 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: all day long. If you can't if you can't block, 202 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: if you can't run block, if you can't pass block, 203 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: you can't run offense. So nothing starts if unless you 204 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: have that shared up. So I believe that tyrant obviously 205 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: having that line shared up and it didn't matter right, 206 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 1: and we just talked about it. Chris Jones he had 207 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: three and a half. He really had four sacks. His 208 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: boy kind of jumped in on that last one. But 209 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: he picked on each one of our alignment. I think 210 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: the only person that he didn't pick on was Collins. 211 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 1: Everybody else gave up a sack versus him. Yeah, he 212 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: just went down the line. We don't even MENI mney Mo. 213 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: He didn't care. He was going want it. He's like, 214 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: whatever you guys want to make excuse about this one, 215 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: I'll take this guy on. So obviously he would have 216 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: helped out substantially because we couldn't get anything going on 217 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 1: the ground, And we talked about how important that was 218 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: in terms of ball possession. The Kent City wins most 219 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: of their ball games by having a ball for thirty minutes. 220 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: They don't need it a whole lot. They had a 221 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 1: ball for thirty minutes. So you know, there are certain 222 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 1: things that we did well in terms of the third 223 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: down percentage, but there's other aspects that again we just 224 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: can't allow and they took advantage. Yeah, I agree. I 225 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: agree with you on that. Pee. You know, I just 226 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: feel like there was so much about this game. We 227 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: were out of whack for a lot of it. And look, 228 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: let's not give because no one is going to take 229 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: any of our excuses, and they didn't make any. I 230 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: get you can say I'm making for him, but I'm 231 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 1: just looking at the game and saying, they could have 232 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: used this. They could have used this, and that's why 233 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: that's why they lost. I mean, it's a big reason 234 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: why they lost. No, and offensive line wise, they've got 235 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: to coach Philbin. I'm sure they're going over the film 236 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: and they're looking at this because they got Wood and 237 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: this is one of those games that you go back 238 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: and you say, man, we got man handling Chris Jones 239 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: was a big part of it. Um. You know, I 240 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: would and I agree with you, man, Tyren Smith would 241 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: have made a tremendous difference in this game simply because 242 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: Dak would have had more time. I've been talking about 243 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: Dak in his MVP race, the whole time time of possession, 244 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: getting the ball out of his hands, being quick strike. 245 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 1: He had none of that at his disposal. Guys are 246 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: dropping balls. Noah Brown. It's someone that we depended on 247 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: heavily and special teams and come in for spot duty. 248 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: We needed him to make certain calls catches, Cedric Wilson same, 249 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: we needed catches from our guys. We didn't get him. 250 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: Even with Michael Gallop on one of those catches, it 251 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: hits him in the hands. Guys come underneath them again 252 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: defensively made a great, great close out on the ball, 253 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: but Mike got to come down with that. Uh And 254 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: just going back to a holding penalty on Terence Steel, 255 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 1: that was too the Tortuenegger's he's there, he catches the 256 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 1: ball and then it's negated by holding penalties. It's just 257 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: little things like that, when you get momentum going in 258 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: the game and then you shoot yourself in the foot. 259 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 1: I mean, look, we can dissect it all we want to, 260 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: but those are things that we can talk about the 261 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: moment being too big and that. But anytime you get 262 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: momentum going and then flag negates it, or look, Michael 263 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: Parsons is close to blocking the punt man that would 264 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,119 Speaker 1: have been big for us. Jun Curse on the interception, 265 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: he's able to take that to the house. Those are 266 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: momentum changing mojo moments. We needed a mojo moment. We 267 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: just didn't get it. And good thinking back, I think 268 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:01,559 Speaker 1: every receiver had a drop for the part. They had 269 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: a drop. Yeah, CD had a drop. Yep, Noah had 270 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: a drop. Mike had a girl. I gotta drop. Leak 271 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: Turner didn't leak. Turner did not get it. The ball 272 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: big one seven baby. But but you talk about Kansas 273 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: City and they're dropping balls. I mean, their receivers didn't 274 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: look like themselves. But my god, when you people are 275 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 1: gonna be on dak and say, oh, dad just didn't 276 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: do enough. He didn't turn in the MVP performs that 277 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: he needed. He gutted out a lot of throats. He 278 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: stood in there. It took some heat to get the 279 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: ball off. But you know, look, when you got guys 280 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: dropping the ball all over the place, you know that's 281 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: a bad sign for what the day was gonna be like. 282 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,719 Speaker 1: But don't let me give dak In an excuses either, 283 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: because he was off. It was it was a little denverish, 284 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: you know. They well they yeah, they got the pressure 285 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: up front and watch it back. I mean they jammed 286 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage and played type man coverage 287 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: and could not believe it, and they won more often 288 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: than not. It seemed like and like you said, you 289 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: know some of those contested balls are even not contested balls. 290 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 1: Didn't come up with it. You can't go on the 291 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: road and do that at an expect in twelve men 292 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: in the huddle. Penalties and stuff like that, Terrence Steele, 293 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: Noise knocketting out of his stance, stuff like that can 294 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 1: kill drives. They had twelve drives. They either punted or 295 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: turned the ball over on nine of them. You're not 296 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: gonna beat Pat Mahomes that way. Not even if Pat 297 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: Mahomes isn't Pat Mahomes on this particular day. Yeah, if 298 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: she wasn't, we know he wasn't. And he didn't play 299 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: exceptionally well either. But kind of going back to what 300 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: both of you guys were talking about, you could have 301 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: used a Tyrant Smith. You could have used it Amari Cooper, 302 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: but Amari Cooper and Tyrann Smith didn't have a holding 303 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: penalty and didn't have a dropped pass. You had opportunities 304 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: throughout the game. And that's what's so frustrating about this. 305 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: And I mean I mentioned this on the postgame show 306 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: last night, But there were fifteen in completions from Dak Prescott. 307 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 1: At least five of those, maybe more, I'll have to 308 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: go back to it were drops. So there's ten and completions. 309 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: Two of those ten were bad decisions and they resulted 310 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: in interceptions. It was forcing the ball to ceede Lamb 311 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: into the end zone. I think that was just trying 312 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: to press it, just trying to make a play and 313 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: he had man coverage on the outside and it was 314 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: a great play from the dB. Bad location for bad ball. 315 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: And then of course the one on the final driver 316 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: where he threw it over the middle. It was tipped 317 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: by Chris Jones, but that was even still forced. There 318 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: were three Kansas City chiefs in the vicinity, so there's 319 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: there's a way you can you can make the excuse 320 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 1: of not having your guys, But also there were windows 321 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: in that ball game, and I think that's what Cowboys 322 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: friends are. Fans are so frustrated with this way. Question question. 323 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: Can I ask this question? Yes? Do you feel as 324 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: if I don't want h Yeah? I mean I ask 325 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 1: this question. Do you feel as if it was just 326 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: we just weren't on our p's and queues or do 327 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: you feel like Kansas is better as of yesterday. I 328 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: think both a little bit of both. I'm gonna go 329 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: with us not being on our pas and cues that 330 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: that's that's the way that we started. Uh, if you 331 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: don't have those accuracy issues, dak is able to deliver 332 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: that pass to Michael Gallup. I think you needed a 333 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: score in this to keep this game on our side. 334 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: I don't think Kansas City did anything to us, all 335 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: of us. The pass coverage, miss ques, things like that, 336 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: if those were all self inflicted things that we could 337 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: not get corrected. Finally, when we did, you saw the 338 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: momentum shift right after the half when they got the ball. 339 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: Jerun Curse gets that interception. We needed that. Those are 340 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: just certain things that happened within the game. And so look, 341 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: I would love to come here and if they just 342 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: kicked our butt, hey man, that's the but we got 343 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: a buck kicking. We got that from Denver. I just 344 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 1: don't feel like this in this game. I just feel 345 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: like we missed opportunities. And I feel the opposite. I 346 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: feel as if they did get their butt kicked, because 347 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: there was never a point in the game or Dallas 348 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: where you felt like Dallas had control. Yeah, as close 349 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: as the game was, it was afort. It was a 350 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: comfortable possession game, a very comfortable two possession game. Dallas 351 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: was playing like crap, Kna City was playing like crap. 352 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: Before whatever reason, you just felt like Kana City had 353 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: full control. It felt like those ten points were twenty 354 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: five easily, very much easily could have been. I'm with you. 355 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: I think it's both. I think Kansas City won the game. 356 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: Give them all the credit, and they've got the resume 357 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: they've won these kind of games. Um. That being said, 358 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: it goes back to which you know, the top of 359 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: the show, the moment too big. I think the Cowboys 360 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 1: have shown in ten games there are moments they've risen 361 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,479 Speaker 1: up without key guys. Minnesota is not a bad team. 362 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 1: They went to Minnesota big Green Bay yesterday, went up 363 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 1: to Minnesota without Dak Prescott. Win that game. Go to 364 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 1: New England, who's rising, win that game. Come within a 365 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: field goal. Beat in Tampa Bay in Week one, beat 366 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: the Chargers. They've beaten good teams. I think I think 367 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: it's there's I'm not gonna go with the narrative that 368 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: they can't win big games, can't beat big teams. I 369 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: think they've shown they're a good team. They on the 370 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 1: Chiefs level right now based on yesterday. No, but you 371 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 1: can't even evaluate why they didn't. That's why I think 372 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: it's both. I think it's what they play again, play here. 373 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 1: Maybe a couple guys back a different story, maybe yeah, 374 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: maybe yeah. Oh. I hate that because going into the week, 375 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: you wanted this to be the bench. You wanted us 376 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: to be your opportunity to say, Okay, here's the Chiefs, 377 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 1: here's the Cowboys. Go. Can you win a game like 378 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,880 Speaker 1: this on the road and in the literal loudest stadium 379 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: in the world. We'll get his world record holders to 380 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: the loudest stadium and you've got two of the best 381 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: teams in the league going at it. I wish it 382 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 1: was full strength on full strength, and it stepped neither 383 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: side really played well. It was not what we hoped for. 384 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: It wasn't. It wasn't. And the only thing that I'm 385 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: looking at is the fact that even when you give 386 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: up a fumble against Kansas City, typically they go down 387 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 1: and they score, you know they're gonna they're gonna make 388 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,400 Speaker 1: sure that they you're any mistake that they make, they're 389 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: gonna explode on you on that we forced a field goal. 390 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: You know, the defense was there for you. You you 391 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: can man point to the offensive line and the troubles 392 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 1: that they had, but there was a point in that 393 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: game that we completely just abandoned the run and said, look, 394 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: we just gotta keep throwing this ball down the field. 395 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: But there was just certain things with red zone, red zone. 396 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: We're in the red zone twice and we I'm away 397 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: with nothing this like. Those are just certain things that 398 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: we've been talking about on this show. They came back 399 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 1: to play us again and obviously point to who we 400 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: did who we didn't have isn't going to make a 401 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: bit of difference. But I don't I didn't see this 402 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: as Hey, Kansas City was comfortable. I felt like all 403 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: the way up until that last interception, they felt like 404 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 1: but it just never felt like the offense was ever 405 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: gonna get Oh heck no, it felt like twenty eighteen. 406 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: And let me commend what I said. I think the 407 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 1: Cowboys are cable being on the Chiefs level. They are 408 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: not a better team based off of yesterday. I guess 409 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: I'll say that. I think they're They're still a contender. 410 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: In my mind. This does not change my big rusture 411 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: view of them. But it reminded me of like twenty 412 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: eighteen before Mari got here, where they just couldn't get 413 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: anything downfield going in the passing game, and it just 414 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,360 Speaker 1: in some of those twenty nineteen games, you know, where 415 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: they couldn't get started. I just hadn't been a problem 416 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: for them the last two years with Dak except when 417 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: they turned the ball over. What's happening in this league 418 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 1: and it's happening into Kansas City. They're having to figure 419 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 1: it out, and I think Dallas is going to have 420 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: to start figuring this out as well. Teams are not 421 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: going to allow those teams to have big plays. They're 422 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 1: gonna take the Bill Belichick, Ben, but don't break approach. 423 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: That is what you're going to face when you had 424 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: that much firepower on offense. That's Dallas, That's that's the 425 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, that is dog on Kansas City. Those offenses, 426 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: you're going to get that very soft coverage. Work your 427 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,239 Speaker 1: way down the field, get to see if you can 428 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: sustain at twelve or fourteen play drive and guess what 429 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 1: if it comes down to a field goal, that's what 430 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: you get. And I think that's what you're starting to see. 431 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: And that's even more reason why when you played opponents 432 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 1: like Kansas City, you can't get behind. You can't get 433 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: behind those teams because if that's what this game is 434 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 1: going to turn into, if they're not going to allow 435 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: you to have a big play, then you're literally hoping 436 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,239 Speaker 1: for three points every drive. Yeah, and Kansas City got 437 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 1: up nine to nothing just like that. You know, when 438 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 1: they help the drive touchdown and then you had the 439 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: field or the missed extra point and then the field goal. 440 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: From then on out, it was ten to nine. The 441 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: rest of they just held the lead. At that point. 442 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:52,919 Speaker 1: All they got to do is hold on yep, just 443 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: kept them out of arms length because that was about it. So, huh, 444 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 1: a weird game. It was a weird game. I thought 445 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: it would be kind of low scoring game. It's never 446 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: exactly what you hope for. We talked about, Yeah, we 447 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: mentioned last week nine points. God, well, let's talk about 448 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 1: the offensive side. Whenever we return five sacks, allowed eight 449 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: quarterback hits, two interceptions. It was not pretty for the 450 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense. What did they need to look at going 451 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: into a short week when we return here on talking Cowboys? 452 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 1: There's nothing as unique as our eyes, which is why 453 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: SLOR pioneers ways to make lenses as unique as you. 454 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: Very Lux for super sharp vision, Essential Blue for protection, 455 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: and Crisol for freedom from glare.

Hey, the 494 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: Las Vegas Raiders come to at and T Stadium and 495 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,400 Speaker 1: the AFC West continue or two or continues, and so 496 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 1: far one and two for the Cowboys in that division. 497 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 1: The only wind going back to the Chargers in week two. 498 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: So oh, we got another one on the horizon. So 499 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: trouble with that division the last two or two of 500 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: the last three weeks, we have had trouble with that division. 501 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,159 Speaker 1: But let's be done with them, get it out of 502 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: the way, done with them, get on with it. Percentage 503 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 1: right now thirty three. It's good in baseball. Yeah, only 504 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: in baseball, I think base Way you get twin men 505 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: out to do for that. Let's not talk for life guaranteed. 506 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: All right. What happened offensively, We just talked about it 507 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: a little bit in terms of the numbers and some 508 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: of the feeling around not getting off the ground from 509 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 1: an offensive standpoint, But did it start up front? Was 510 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: the struggles straight up to the to the offensive line, 511 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: or did there have was there more factors going into 512 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: it in terms of just not being able to have 513 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: any rhythm on offense. More factors, more factors. Go back 514 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,639 Speaker 1: to the first series. What did the officsive line do 515 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: wrong in the first series? Nothing? Nothing in those first 516 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: three plays had a misstop in the passing game, miss 517 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: big play that was just overthrow, okay, drop ball right 518 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: and go punt. They didn't do anything wrong in that 519 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: first series. That first series had zero to do with 520 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: our officive line not playing up to their potential. Now 521 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,360 Speaker 1: beyond that point, now, so you already have a bad 522 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 1: passing there, You already have a drop passing there. Now 523 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: you can't get established a line of scrimmage on the 524 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 1: ground or being able to block so that we can pass. 525 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: All those things start compounding. Everybody had a role in it. 526 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 1: We got office ave lignement not being able to get 527 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: off the snap. We got freaking Schultzenegger either whipping on 528 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: on screenplays. I mean everybody had a role in this. 529 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: I think everybody can go out there a circle and say, 530 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: what the heck was I doing? What the heck was 531 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,880 Speaker 1: I doing? Officsive line, what the heck were you doing? Dak, 532 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: what the heck were you doing? Bad location on balls? 533 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,679 Speaker 1: There's there's two interceptions out there, and that was it 534 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: was bad locations. Sure that you want to know a 535 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,880 Speaker 1: brown or bad location, the one the CD terrible location, right, 536 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: So ball location plays a part of it, Kenn he 537 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: set his feet or maybe maybe he was having bad 538 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 1: location because he couldn't he didn't feel confident setting his 539 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 1: feet because of the lack of blocking up front. Everything 540 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,239 Speaker 1: plays a part, and that's why football is such an 541 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 1: amazing sport simply because of the fact that requires everybody 542 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,479 Speaker 1: doing their job in order for somebody to be successful. Now, 543 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 1: I just think his lunching point for Dak lunching point 544 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: changed because of the pressure that Chris Jones was putting 545 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: on him. But you're right, I mean that initial drive, 546 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 1: I think that everything just kind of was predicated on 547 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: that from the beginning. Our offensive line is no matter 548 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: how you look at this, you can all twenty two it. 549 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,200 Speaker 1: I'll save you the time. We got beat up and 550 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: there was no there was no help that was coming. 551 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 1: Obviously Connor Williams was taken out, and but still the 552 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 1: result was the same as far as the pressure that 553 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 1: was coming in the middle of this is this offense. Look, 554 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 1: be honest, he's just one of those players man that 555 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: obviously he's gonna have to get a lot stronger to 556 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: be able to show up an anchor from the middle. 557 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 1: Terence Steele has done a really good job for us 558 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: in games, but you see where he gets exposed sometime, 559 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: and that's putting Dak in a bit of danger. I 560 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,159 Speaker 1: thought that there were opportunities for Dak to use his legs. 561 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was in his mind. Look, 562 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 1: I can't do this, but last week when he's want 563 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 1: to re establish myself and let people know I'm a 564 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: big MF, you know, we didn't have that. And there 565 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: were times where it's like he go out on a 566 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: blue leg and he had plenty of opportunity in space, 567 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: but he didn't do it. And I don't know if 568 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 1: it's just something in his head now. I don't want 569 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: to say it's the ankle or whatever it is, but 570 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: you saw him kind of for the first time be 571 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: a little gunshoy with picking up those yards offensively. I 572 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: just feel like the sixteen rushes for us was just 573 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 1: not enough in this game. We needed to continue to 574 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 1: try to establish that. And even Chris Jones and what 575 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: was happening up front, I think we were having some 576 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 1: success and we just said, you know what, we're at 577 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: the point now where we're down by ten and if 578 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: we don't start trying to throw this ball all around, 579 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 1: there's no way that we're going to get back in 580 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: this game. And that's we became one side of one dimensional. 581 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 1: I agree Tony, because Tony Pollard hit some runs in 582 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 1: this game. But Zeke was banged up again playing through. 583 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: I think that that needs issue that he's been kind 584 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: of managing so short week for him, he thinks he'll 585 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,119 Speaker 1: be okay, I just go Isaiah is right. I mean, 586 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 1: there's a lot of factors, but I'm with heck On. 587 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing for me is upfront. And 588 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: Zach Martin spoke to this last night, like it's across 589 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,959 Speaker 1: the board, you know. He said, I don't know if 590 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: you can argue that they were more physical than us 591 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: up front and that was the factor in the Denver game. Yep, 592 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: you know, and they I'll say it again. I mean, 593 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: they're they're young on this left side of the offensive 594 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,479 Speaker 1: line in this game, and you know, the timing of 595 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: moving Connor McGovern into the starting lineup to me is interesting. 596 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: I mean, going to arrowhead against this resurgent Chiefs defense. 597 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: I wonder if they thought earlier in the week they'd 598 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 1: have tiring and they wound up not having tiring in 599 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 1: this game because you're awfully young and you're awfully experience, 600 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: and I think that both good young players. But that's 601 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: a tough matchup man, and the Chiefs went right after it. 602 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: And this is normally a question I think I would 603 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: say for later in the week, but since we only 604 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: have three shows prior to the Raiders game, I want 605 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: to ask it today. But do you like that decision? 606 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: Did you think that was the right decision of putting 607 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: Connor mc govern over the top of Connor Williams, Because 608 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: whether or not it's a fair question, it's a question 609 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: that's going to be answered because of the result that 610 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 1: was on the field. I'm not in the business of 611 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: telling coach Philbin what to do. He'd been around for 612 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,479 Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy two years, so he knows exactly 613 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 1: what he's doing in that all and just about his 614 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: approximate value, give or takes six months. He knows. He's 615 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 1: a smart dude, and he knows exactly how to get 616 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: these guys together. We haven't questioned his decision making over 617 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: the last two years. Somehow someway he patched, he patched 618 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 1: together offensive line to get through last season. I think 619 00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: he knows what he's doing. I don't think that either 620 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: one of the guys would have had success. Let's let's 621 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: be very clear on that. I don't think either one. 622 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: I don't care which other Connor. You could have put 623 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: both Connor brows out there, and I think Chris Jones 624 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: still would have did what he did. Yeah, it's six 625 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 1: offensive line. They're just outmatched. There's just outmatched. I mean 626 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: it's reality, they're outmatched. That dude is bigger than them, 627 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: he's stronger than them, he's longer than them. What do 628 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: you expect to happen? Well, next week they got another bigger, 629 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: stronger guy, and then the week after that, it's gonna 630 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: be another bigger, stronger guy. And there's a thing like 631 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: we talk about blueprints. What a team's gonna do with 632 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: the blueprint. Oh, I'm gonna put my defensive in right 633 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: here in your middle. Yeah, I'm gonna do that. Worked, 634 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: and then I could go man on the outside in situations. 635 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: So you know, I look Connor Williams, Connor McGovern conan 636 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: the Barbarian. No, you would have been the same. I mean, 637 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: because coming can we honestly say the Raiders are more 638 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: aggressive on that defensive front, Dana, Yes you are. We'll 639 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 1: get to death tomorrow. No, but you know, offensive line wise, 640 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: And someone just said something about the receivers like man 641 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 1: whipping on blocks, and man, it was just so much 642 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: of that going on that we're not used to seeing 643 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 1: our offensive, especially our wide receivers not blocking for one another. 644 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: We were trying to get that screen game going and man, 645 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: it's just they were It's just like Kansas City reading 646 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: that plays. Man, those are private players game. I was, 647 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: I was, We're watching the game, and I told BC, 648 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: I said, that was one of my roles when I 649 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: was playing in New England. My job was the clear 650 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: things out for for Moss. And the other one was 651 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 1: when we run these screenplays, the Welker block your tail off, 652 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: and that's a pride play. You're not getting the ball right. 653 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: You know, you're not gonna be a hero if this 654 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: thing breaks out. Your jobs to go out there and 655 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: take some heat off of your boy. And when you 656 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: whenever I see guys out there just kind of just 657 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: all they got they got us like. That's bs to me. Yeah, 658 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 1: that's that's I don't want to call somebody individually a point, 659 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 1: but that's when I look at it, that that's what 660 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: I feel. I feel like you don't care enough about 661 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: your brother to keep somebody's keep the heat up off them. 662 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: And even if you do, even if I do make 663 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: a bad play and they get you, right, I'm I'm 664 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: gonna be the first person to snap him up off you, 665 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: because I guess what that's on me? Are you intentionally 666 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: leaving the name out of this conversation? It wasn't just 667 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: one guy, okay, because I remember one specific guy that 668 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 1: I agreed with you completely on because he was being 669 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: a punk a little bit yesterday. Well Big eighty six 670 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: is we're passing all right? Yeah? Uh, Dalton Schultz. He 671 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: did not have a great game. To me, Yes, he 672 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: caught six passes, but man, he missed on multiple blocks. 673 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: And those are again, those are just pride plays. Those 674 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 1: are pride plays. I'm not I don't question the effort 675 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: on some of these guys, but sometimes if somebody's coming 676 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: to hit one of y'all, I've got you, you know 677 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: what I mean? I got you and guess what, and 678 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: if I take a wrong step and they happen to 679 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: make a hell of a play, get off from get 680 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: off them. I got you. That's telling me I'm gonna 681 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: be the first one I come out there that saw me. 682 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: It won't happen again, I promise you. Yeah, that's all good. 683 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,959 Speaker 1: Point Again, it goes back to it's more than just 684 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: one thing. And I'm not I'm not questioning the coaching staff. 685 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 1: They felt like they had to make a decision at 686 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: left guard. Yeah, I mean, and I think look going 687 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: into that environment, the penalties Connor Williams has had, the 688 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: way Connor mcgovernment has played, they felt like it he 689 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: could he could do it, and it wasn't just him. 690 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: But give the Chiefs credit. They they got Melvin Ingraman here. 691 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 1: It's it's completed. This defensive front where now Chris Jones 692 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 1: like is just balling a monster in the middle of 693 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,239 Speaker 1: their defensive line and all of a sudden, now this 694 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 1: is looking like a complete team in the FC. Now 695 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: that's exactly what I was gonna say. Give Steve Spagnolo 696 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: the defensive coordinated credit because I won't. I didn't see 697 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: this same Kansas City team and any of our when 698 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: we went through film. I just didn't see this in 699 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 1: the evaluation. They showed up, they went through the monster 700 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: machine and they came out monsters in Kansas City. That 701 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: their ability to press us up front and relegate eight 702 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: nine in the box and not worry about what's behind them, 703 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: to me, I think was either genius or you were 704 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: just you are daring us to burn you down. We 705 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: just didn't have the time to do it. They did that, 706 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 1: I think they said, like, look, beat us through the 707 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: air and dak when did he was the espn staw 708 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 1: when he finally completed a passover ten yards, It's ridiculous, 709 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 1: you know. They just they couldn't get anything. That's and 710 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: that's that's what we're gonna face. So that's what I'm 711 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: talking about. That's what I'm alluding to when I say 712 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: that we're gonna face those type of defenses, because that's 713 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 1: the blueprint, you know. And please believe the Raiders is 714 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: gonna do the same thing. They think that they're guys 715 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,359 Speaker 1: up front are better than our guys up front. So 716 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do. I'm anna back up, I'm 717 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: gonna back up. I'm gonna press you with my corners, everybody, 718 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 1: my dvs, and my safeties. I'm playing them deep. You're 719 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 1: not gonna get a big player over the top. I 720 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 1: guarantee you. My guys up front will get to your 721 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: get to your quarterback before you guys can get past 722 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: this ten yard mark. I give them credit. I give 723 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: them credit for that's gutsie, you know, and especially Steve Spagnolo. Boy, 724 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 1: it ain't hard to be a good DC when Amari 725 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: Cooper is out and now CD's out. You know, I 726 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 1: got a bunch of guys I can I can really 727 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 1: really press y'all, now, you know. So that's that's what 728 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna face. So whatever that blueprint is, look bley, 729 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: just no, just no. Over the next couple of weeks, 730 00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 1: once we start getting our players back, hey, we're gonna 731 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 1: be attack us with that same thing, right, doing that 732 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 1: one more thing on that because we know him Arii's 733 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 1: he's not gonna be available for this game, yep, based 734 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 1: on the COVID protocols. But I wouldn't necessarily rule out 735 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: CD for why do you say that? I just it 736 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: sounded like maybe he's got a shot to be back 737 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 1: for this game. Not saying he will, but but I 738 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 1: don't think they have necessarily ruled him out, and there's 739 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 1: a chance he could clear protocol in time for this game. 740 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: You can ask him first thing in the morning, like 741 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 1: you did about the time. I'm not putting any more 742 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 1: pacities didn't work out last week. Unfortunately. He needs to 743 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 1: be sleeping in a very dark room. He needs to 744 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 1: stay out all light, all sound. It's tough to get 745 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 1: back that quickly from a concussion. There's different grades obviously, 746 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 1: and yeah, and he's got to pass it independently. And 747 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 1: I'm saying, you know, but for people out there, there's 748 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: a test that you take. There's there's there's a preconcussion 749 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 1: test that you take on a computer and it marks 750 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,320 Speaker 1: how fast you click on stuff and all that jazz. 751 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: So there's a baseline that you have. So now that's 752 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 1: the first thing that they'll have him to do is 753 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: go back to and go right back to that test 754 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 1: and see how bad he is, How how slow is 755 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,280 Speaker 1: his response time, how where's this clicking direct? All those things. Wow, 756 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: And there's other evaluations, but that's one of the main 757 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 1: baseline tests. So and for those who have never had 758 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 1: concussions before, your your sensors are very heightened. Right, you're 759 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: very sensitive to noise and light will drive you insane. 760 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: It's like venom, just like, don't don't bring the noise. 761 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:19,840 Speaker 1: It would drive you in crazy. So I hope that 762 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,879 Speaker 1: he can get back. It's yeah, I'm interested to see 763 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:24,399 Speaker 1: if he can give I mean they won't rush it, Yeah, 764 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: they won't rush it. Quick question, guys, last twenty nine 765 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: seconds of the half, that whether CD got the concussion, 766 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: we had two timeouts left. How did you guys feel 767 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: about that? Uh, keeping the time, not calling timeouts in 768 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 1: that situation. Um, I didn't feel. I didn't really feel 769 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: any certain direction. I mean, he forced that ball. He 770 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 1: didn't have to go to the end zone there. They 771 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 1: had plenty of time. I thought, with the two timeouts, 772 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,280 Speaker 1: to work it a little closer than take a couple shots. 773 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 1: I thought that was just a forced ball. He thought 774 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 1: man to man coverage on the outside. He thought CD 775 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: was gonna have more room. Great, like I said earlier, 776 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: Great way by the dB got that inside leverage forced 777 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 1: them to the Sideline's tell exactly what he looked out there? 778 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 1: He saw CD was somebody pressed up against him. He 779 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 1: saw the honey badger down in the box. Yep, I'm 780 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 1: taking my shot, going to the bad ball, trust my guy, yep, 781 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 1: and bad ball, honey, badger's down. I got CD one 782 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 1: on one. Oh, I'm going up top. He was just 783 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 1: a bad ball and CD did not keep his five 784 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 1: yard boundary on the sideline. That was CD's fault too. 785 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,839 Speaker 1: CD got pushed to the sideline, so even if it 786 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 1: was a perfect ball, CD would have struggled to keep 787 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 1: his feet in. You want to see him milk it 788 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 1: though a little bit more. I do, yeah, And I 789 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: think you know we have been attack attack, attack it. 790 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 1: There's certain situations, man, you gotta rein it in, especially 791 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: when you're not getting any scores. Your offense has been struggling. 792 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: Don't force anything. You got two timeouts, you got an 793 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 1: opportunity to call to plays. Why not do it? You know, 794 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 1: the worst that can happen is you come away with 795 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,839 Speaker 1: a field goal. What you could not have happened as 796 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: you you get nothing and you give them the ball. 797 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: Batch It's exactly what happened. I'm doing a segment later today. 798 00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,439 Speaker 1: That's the game altering plays. That that was the game 799 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 1: altering play for me. That's one hundred percent what it's 800 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 1: going to be by the way. I just wanted to 801 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 1: look this up a little look ahead to earlier or 802 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: later in the week. I should say, how about the 803 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,439 Speaker 1: front seven for the Raiders. If we thought Kansas City 804 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 1: got some pressure. Crosby highest rated player on PFF as 805 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 1: an edge rusher. He's good, He's very good. Hankin's up front, 806 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,399 Speaker 1: Jefferson upfront, and got Guakway upfront. Who's that guy? Yeah, 807 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: he's pretty good, Yannick. And then you've got kJ Wright 808 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:24,879 Speaker 1: in the second level as well. Oh that guy, Yeah, 809 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:28,280 Speaker 1: I say, knows that guy. And coach Quinn Gus Bradley, 810 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: Yes he does, Yes, he does. All right, let's take 811 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,239 Speaker 1: a step aside. Let's take a deep breath, and then 812 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,799 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about some of the positives. And they're 813 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:38,600 Speaker 1: all pretty much on the defensive side of the football. 814 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 1: When we return here, I'll talking Cowboys. I want to 815 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,320 Speaker 1: use what the pros used.

Les talk 862 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: about the defense yesterday. I mean, sure you can. You 863 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 1: can nitpick this and say they gave up some early points, 864 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 1: but really the defense played good ball game and the 865 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:37,320 Speaker 1: Bazuka was was definitely carried to Kansas City. He was 866 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 1: put in the luggage, he was under the plane. The 867 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 1: bazooka was pulled out right at the right opportunity time 868 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 1: gave your offense a great shot for points, and ultimately 869 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:48,280 Speaker 1: the offense just didn't deliver. See the thing with the Buzuka, 870 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:50,360 Speaker 1: you can't put him on the plane. You gotta transport 871 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:52,440 Speaker 1: him like shamu. You know what I mean. You got 872 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 1: is that care has careful. You gotta put all kind 873 00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 1: of stuff together for this man. This is this is special. 874 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 1: This is special stuff on you never seen.

I'm telling you, man, this is this is 877 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: how I mean. Yeah, and there's a lot. There's a 878 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 1: lot to be desired with our defense, and in the 879 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 1: back half of it, we talked about, you know, a 880 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: b and some of some of his shortcomings over the 881 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 1: over the beginning of the year. But you know, I 882 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:30,240 Speaker 1: think these guys, they tried to put a complete game together. 883 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 1: You saw them going to halftime and make an adjustment, 884 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 1: because I'm telling y'all, that was a point in this game. 885 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 1: I was like, yo, we are about to get the 886 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,880 Speaker 1: doors blown off, and it was and it would just 887 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 1: look like we had no life. And then all of 888 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,760 Speaker 1: a sudden, Michael woke everything up. And not only Michael, 889 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: but bash them um as well. I mean, we had 890 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:54,240 Speaker 1: a lot of participants and guys that played to make plays. 891 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,399 Speaker 1: I can't say enough about Jerrun Curse and the job 892 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 1: that he did. Obviously, Kelsey drops the balls, but I 893 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 1: would say, Kelsey, you know, Curse was right there on 894 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 1: a lot of those plays. We just didn't on that one. 895 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 1: I'm going back to that interception because boy, I don't 896 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,359 Speaker 1: know if it was Malie Cooker or if Lewis who 897 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:15,720 Speaker 1: it was. Man, just pick up the block, Soldier, Curse. 898 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 1: They running the Oscy drill and you turn around, you 899 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,239 Speaker 1: get a man because I'm telling you, the motor who 900 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:24,359 Speaker 1: wasn't rolling that motor just your was trying to get 901 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:29,959 Speaker 1: that motor going. He was very jay n man. Man, 902 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 1: he's not fast. Pay He's just not fast. It's okay. 903 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: It was that running the sand on the flat surface 904 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:43,800 Speaker 1: kind of field and it just but there. But but 905 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 1: it just turns to somewhere You're like just almost like 906 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 1: you just want to put your hand behind him and 907 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,920 Speaker 1: just go like this. I mean, but that was the 908 00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 1: that was the play. That was one of the plays 909 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 1: that we needed offense, you know, but it just seemed 910 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 1: like we kept getting the opportunities for them. They punt 911 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 1: our offense we talked about it just could not get 912 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 1: anything going. It's hard to blame this loss on our defense. 913 00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: We give up nineteen points, and I'm telling you, if 914 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:10,719 Speaker 1: we had said that Kansas City was only going to 915 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 1: score at nineteen points on Friday, it felt really good 916 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,360 Speaker 1: about it. You felt good about your chances in the 917 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 1: winning this game. Yeah. Overall, think our defense played well. 918 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 1: I think they played well. I think there was a 919 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 1: lot of opportunities that Kansas City missed on. But I 920 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 1: believe that some of those opportunities were were missed on 921 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,640 Speaker 1: because the contested passes that we had in that second half. 922 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:30,359 Speaker 1: I think the first half it was the track meeting. 923 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,399 Speaker 1: We're about to get like the Hecker sake, the socks 924 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 1: blown off of us. But you know, they figured out. 925 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 1: They came back the second half and they were competitive, 926 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 1: and that's what you wanted. You wanted them to be competitive, 927 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 1: but a little bit too late and in the wrong environment. 928 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:45,719 Speaker 1: And guess what offense was to scoring points. So I 929 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 1: think the two turnovers came at the perfect time to 930 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 1: keep that ball game from getting the doors blown off. Yeah, 931 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 1: because I mean even the final drive before the half, 932 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:57,239 Speaker 1: Kansas City was going to receive to start the third quarter. 933 00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,759 Speaker 1: It really felt like that drive for Kansas City, they 934 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: had had a role and they had a couple of 935 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 1: plays down the field and then all of a sudden, 936 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:05,719 Speaker 1: Kelsey dropped the ball or excuse me, that was the 937 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: Parson's force fumble. So Parsons comes around, makes a big play, 938 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,800 Speaker 1: forces to fumble, Bashroom recovers, and then all of a 939 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 1: sudden you're like, okay, we've got another shot at points. 940 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 1: This is great, how about that? And then doesn't work, 941 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:19,160 Speaker 1: and then you throw a pick in the end zone. 942 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 1: And then on the second the start of the third quarter, 943 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 1: that was another drive for Kansas City where they were 944 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,520 Speaker 1: going down the field, had an opportunity to really put 945 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,319 Speaker 1: that out of reach, and Curse comes up with the pick. 946 00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 1: Couldn't have come in a better time, But you just 947 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 1: got to have some sort of offensive rhythm to take 948 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,640 Speaker 1: advantage at give and take relationship with complimentary football terry. 949 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 1: They followed the blueprint though against Pat Mahomes they played 950 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: two safeties over the top and they didn't let anything 951 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:47,960 Speaker 1: pass and pass after those first couple thirty plus yard plays, 952 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 1: I mean, I think Pat and Holmes only had four 953 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 1: or five explosive pass plays in the whole game. So 954 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 1: they score on their first three drives, they get seventeen points, 955 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:58,839 Speaker 1: and after that it's punt, punt, fumble, interception, punt, field goal, 956 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 1: missfield goal, punt, end of the game. That's so that's 957 00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:04,880 Speaker 1: a hell of a defensive effort. Man. That's what's so 958 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 1: weird about this game, because if you know your defense 959 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 1: is going to play like that, there's no way in 960 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:11,480 Speaker 1: hell you think that your offense is going to be 961 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: in that like they were. It's kind of like what 962 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:16,759 Speaker 1: you said about Kansas City of Whenever Kansas City gets 963 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 1: the ball in short yardage situations, how many times are 964 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,600 Speaker 1: they going to end up kicking a field goal? Not 965 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 1: a lot? Right? You feel the same way about the Cowboys. 966 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 1: They got the ball in short yardage situations, how many 967 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,400 Speaker 1: times are they not going to come up with points? Normally? 968 00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,520 Speaker 1: Not that much. Normally they take advantage of that. And 969 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 1: I agree. That's what makes this frustrating for me is 970 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,320 Speaker 1: the fact that there were opportunities. Kansas City very easily 971 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 1: could have slammed that door in the first half. That 972 00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 1: could have been a three possession, four possession game in 973 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 1: the first half, and instead that thing was cracked all 974 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 1: the way up until the pick at the end, to 975 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,400 Speaker 1: when Dak Prescott got a tipped by Chris Jones and 976 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 1: it was picked by Sneed. What are you thinking about? 977 00:46:56,120 --> 00:47:03,880 Speaker 1: I see that smile automatically thought about Debo. No, we 978 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,360 Speaker 1: never had an opportunity. And again, just looking at the numbers, 979 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 1: red zone on and two and the red zone we've 980 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 1: talked about Keller Moore and this, think about how hot 981 00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:16,440 Speaker 1: Kelly Moore is and he's trending this way, and then 982 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 1: you have a game that you run into like this 983 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,319 Speaker 1: where you're getting the red zone and you can't get 984 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 1: anything going. And again, the excuses are not gonna be given. 985 00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 1: No one's gonna say, oh, you didn't have CD, you 986 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:28,200 Speaker 1: didn't have a Maori. But there are certain things that 987 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:29,960 Speaker 1: you got to look at. You have to look at it, 988 00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 1: you gotta looked at it, and you have to evaluate 989 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,719 Speaker 1: it fairly. Give Kansas City credit. They pulled this one out. 990 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,760 Speaker 1: That was a good team win for them. They're seven 991 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:39,919 Speaker 1: and four right now. They are looking like the team 992 00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:42,960 Speaker 1: that is carrying all the momentum into their bye week. 993 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,759 Speaker 1: Are they going to be legit in the AFC? I 994 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:48,400 Speaker 1: think if you look at what LA the Chargers did 995 00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 1: yesterday against Pittsburgh, there are some teams in the AFC 996 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 1: that are gonna be gunning for them that have already 997 00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:55,760 Speaker 1: beat them. So you know, it's gonna be tough getting 998 00:47:55,800 --> 00:48:01,080 Speaker 1: through this AFC nothing. You know, I think the boys 999 00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:03,840 Speaker 1: have a I have an amazing opportunity to become a 1000 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 1: great team. I think they were playing great ball. But 1001 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 1: the two teams that that we need to measure ourselves 1002 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:12,200 Speaker 1: up against, we've lost to both of them. Tampa Bay, 1003 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay and Kansas City. Those are the Super Bowl 1004 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:16,920 Speaker 1: teams and for a measure, for a measure, you're saying, Hey, 1005 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 1: these guys have been there, and if you want to 1006 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:20,840 Speaker 1: be that, you're gonna have to beat them boys. Absolutely, 1007 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,320 Speaker 1: and and I know I'll get drug for this, but 1008 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 1: I really feel like yesterday we've all been a part. 1009 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:26,920 Speaker 1: We've all been in athletics at some point in time 1010 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:28,799 Speaker 1: in our life. I feel like those one of those 1011 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 1: games where KNA City almost played down to their I 1012 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: know you don't want to hear that. I know you 1013 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:35,439 Speaker 1: don't want to hear that. And the reason the reason 1014 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 1: why I say that is because they they weren't. It 1015 00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:40,960 Speaker 1: seemed like they just didn't care about being converting that much. 1016 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 1: It feels like it just they did the first quarter 1017 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 1: and saw in the first quarter you saw Kansas City, Yes, 1018 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 1: in first quarter, you saw you saw KC like, Okay, 1019 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 1: it's about to be a big game. Let's go bumba. 1020 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 1: But they after that, they were like, oh, this was 1021 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 1: gonna be like school cool and if they score, okay, 1022 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,960 Speaker 1: we'll score. I don't And I know I'm on an 1023 00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 1: island by myself. I'm on Reaver's Island by myself right now. 1024 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 1: But we've all been in those games before. We've all 1025 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:03,440 Speaker 1: either played in them, we've all played and I just 1026 00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:06,239 Speaker 1: got the sense that that's what this was. Now. Had 1027 00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,319 Speaker 1: all of our guys been there, maybe that's a different story, 1028 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:10,280 Speaker 1: and maybe it's a different story. We can't that's always 1029 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 1: gonna be the one IFP. But I just that's the 1030 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:13,799 Speaker 1: energy I felt yesterday. I felt like they. I feel 1031 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:15,520 Speaker 1: like Keenness City could have done whatever they wanted to 1032 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 1: do whenever they wanted to, and they were just okay 1033 00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 1: with keeping ello a ten point league. It's like I 1034 00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:23,399 Speaker 1: took your best shot and it's like, oh, that's all 1035 00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:25,719 Speaker 1: you got. Okay, Yeah, that's what it felt like. And 1036 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 1: I hope that's not the case, but that's what it 1037 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:30,399 Speaker 1: felt like. Hopefully we'll find out later on maybe eight, nine, 1038 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,200 Speaker 1: ten games from now, and that's maybe. And that's the thing. 1039 00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:37,160 Speaker 1: It is such a long season. There's seven games left 1040 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,440 Speaker 1: and you feel like, you know, the bottom drops out 1041 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:41,920 Speaker 1: of for this game, but you gotta go play another 1042 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:44,680 Speaker 1: one right here. There's so much Birthday, there's so much 1043 00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:47,600 Speaker 1: time left, and I do think if you just hope 1044 00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 1: you keep building like this defensive effort that's so encouraging. 1045 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 1: You keep building and you hope by the time you 1046 00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 1: get to January you're healthy enough to where you can 1047 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 1: play the way you want to play. Yeah. I don't 1048 00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 1: think offensively, they really were able to play the way 1049 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 1: they wanted to play in that game, and it showed. 1050 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 1: Hopefully we responded like we were responding to Denver. Yeah, hopefully, 1051 00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,000 Speaker 1: that's my hope. My hope is they needed that right 1052 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 1: the same way they needed that Denver game. We kind 1053 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 1: of knock them off the high horse. This is another 1054 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 1: horse that they climb back on. He said, all right, 1055 00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:15,200 Speaker 1: we were up on here. It's like, okay, we're about 1056 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 1: to face Casey. Oh shoot, the Casey is a dog 1057 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,600 Speaker 1: on Clydesdale. Bob, oh, oh shoot, okay, we're still a pony. Right, 1058 00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: Let's go become a dog. One. Let's go become a Clydesdale. Seriously, exactly. Yeah, 1059 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:35,799 Speaker 1: I agree with you in that sense, because the Denver 1060 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 1: game reminded you that this is the NFL and there 1061 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 1: are no off weeks in the NFL. Absolutely, this game 1062 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: reminding you that if you want to get to a 1063 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 1: super Bowl, if you want to make a run in 1064 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 1: the playoffs, you got a wayte to go. And good 1065 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:49,759 Speaker 1: thing is is there's a way. There's always until you 1066 00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 1: get to that. We're not at full string. Like Rob 1067 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 1: said earlier, this game should not temper your expectations. It 1068 00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:57,480 Speaker 1: gives you a benchmark. It's what it serves as. Is 1069 00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 1: what we talked about going into the You win this game, 1070 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 1: you shouldn't have tempered your expectations. It would have been great. 1071 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:05,400 Speaker 1: But you can say, Okay, we're a lot closer than 1072 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:08,839 Speaker 1: we thought. It's a mid term. That's a great I'm 1073 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:14,640 Speaker 1: a pony time tale and get the hair, pretty hair 1074 00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:16,799 Speaker 1: on the hook. There's some, there's some. There's some nice 1075 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:19,560 Speaker 1: size horses out there until they see a Clisdale and 1076 00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:24,319 Speaker 1: then they're like, crap, what about I'm a pony. I'm 1077 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:27,719 Speaker 1: a pony. Can we do? I want to take like 1078 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:31,960 Speaker 1: all of these and make all right. That's a great 1079 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 1: way to end it here on Talking Cowboys. We'll be 1080 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:38,960 Speaker 1: back tomorrow with some talking Tuesday, we're gonna take your 1081 00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:42,520 Speaker 1: phone calls eight five, five, two two nine seven.
