Your Dallas Cowboys on a four game winning 26 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: streak as they head to Jacksonville. I heard they call 27 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: it Duval County down there, and the fighting Trevor Lawrences, 28 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,119 Speaker 1: who is playing some good football, and patric I'm gonna 29 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: started it with you because we saw the Cowboys on 30 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon struggle a little bit with the Dallas the 31 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: Houston Texas I should say, they needed an eleven play 32 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: ninety eight yards drive to be able to get it done. 33 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: What was the one silver lining though that you took 34 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: from a game where there was a lot of up 35 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: and down nature from the Dallas Cowboys despite them getting 36 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: the win on Sunday. Silver liner for me? And this 37 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: is kind of a easter rig to the column. The 38 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: science lave of the drops this week is resiliency continues 39 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: to show itself with this team. Now, as you guys know, 40 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: when it comes to the playoffs, those teams that have 41 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: been battle tested over the course of the regular season 42 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: are typically going to have more success than those that 43 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: have not been and I'm hard pressed to figure out 44 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: a way in which this version of the Cowboys has 45 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: not been tested through adversity, You lose your franchise quarterback 46 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: for several games, and the list goes on and on. 47 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: So while you should not excuse how it took ninety 48 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: eight yards on the final drive to defeat a want 49 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: to win Houston Texas team, the fact that you were 50 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: able to dig deep and get that win, it tells 51 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: me that this team has figured out, Hey, even when 52 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: our backs against the wall, we can figure out how 53 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: to be victorious. And usually this time of the year 54 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: you always want to worry about, Hey, how are they 55 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: winning the games? And how they finding way to win games? 56 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: And I think that's these that last drive, the eleven 57 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,679 Speaker 1: play drive for nine eight yards, I think really gives 58 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 1: us a boos and realize it doesn't matter how you 59 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: play the game and what happens during the game, because 60 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: if you're gonna face some adversity, things are not gonna 61 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: write the way they could easy phone, I guess what 62 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: they found a way to win and I think that's 63 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: the most important thing that you're gonna play till the end. 64 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: Now since you had that experience, Nay, this is a 65 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 1: team in Dallas that it took a little bit of 66 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: time for them to get their rhythm, especially in that 67 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. But what did you take away from We 68 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: know how difficult it is to win in this league 69 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,679 Speaker 1: and they were able to find a way. What do 70 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: you take away from what you saw from the Texas 71 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys on So I'm gonnare to reach you 72 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 1: every week so you you kind of know my thoughts 73 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: and what I need for my Cowboys to do is 74 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: they gotta start finding ways to play consistent, you know, 75 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: and and find that way real quick. Because when they 76 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: go down to Duvall, they playing with a young team 77 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: that is finally conquered some things in their lives. They 78 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: hadn't beat the Titans, and I'm talking about the Jacksonville 79 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: jack hadn't beat the Titans at home and their backyard, 80 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: not I'm talking about the Titans backyard since two thy thirteen. 81 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: So they gonna, you know, they're feeling good. One week, 82 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: they get hammered and beat the death I mean not 83 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: the death, but then the next three they come back 84 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: and beat somebody real bad. So now eat, they're feeling good. 85 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: The Cowboys from the goat go down there and man, 86 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: this thing is gonna be nice. What I need for 87 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: the Cowboys to do, especially but all the injuries we've had, 88 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: is to go out and just play tough in me 89 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: just a whole game. Just get consistent, get ready, you know, 90 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: getting made it for the playoffs if if that sho're 91 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: the goal. And this is a team in Jacksonville that's 92 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: playing much better football these days. As you were mentioned, 93 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence playing much better. You're seeing his progression throughout 94 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: the year. As we put a boat on what happened 95 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: on Sunday, as we turned the page and getting ready 96 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: for you know, Jacksonville on Sunday. What now do you 97 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 1: take now for a Dallas Cowboys team, Patrick, four wins 98 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: in a row, obviously trying to keep pacing the NFC 99 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: East with the Philadelphia Eagles, and what you want to 100 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: see now to build off of what has been up 101 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: and down play even in the midst of a four 102 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: game winster for the Cowboys being back on Big Nate State, 103 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: it has to be consistency at this point because quite 104 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: as it's kept because of how the flow of the 105 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: game went against detections, the Cowboys a catch and a 106 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: lot of flak, but they're still one of the hottest 107 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: teams in the league. Four consecutive wins in the month 108 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 1: of December. They are one of the few teams that 109 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: have not suffered a two game losing streak at all 110 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: this season. Very difficult to accomplish. They just need to 111 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 1: string together consecutive consecutive games of Elite one through four 112 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: quarters a quarter one, two, three, four. It has to happen. 113 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: You're going against the Jacksonville Jaguars team that is much 114 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: more dangerous than in Houston, Texans because now you got 115 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: to go against Trevor Lawrence, Zay Jones, Christian Current. We 116 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 1: know what Travis Aten has become, and they're coached by 117 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: a guy who knows the Cowboys quite well in Doug Peterson, 118 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: so they're gonna have their hands full. It's consistency. We've 119 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: seen the Cowboys blow teams out, We've seen them struggle 120 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 1: and still win games. Question is can they tied all 121 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: together every single week and be as dominant as we 122 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: saw against a team like the Coats or better. Yet, 123 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: a team like the Minnesota Vikings in Minnesota, Dad, when 124 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: you watch this team play on Sunday, you can obviously 125 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 1: sympathize with obviously what these players and emotions are going 126 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: through when you're facing an opponent that's one ten and 127 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: one coming into the game. Is it hard to get 128 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: get up for a game like that? Or you have 129 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 1: to find an extra measure to be able to handle 130 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: your business the way that you need to think A 131 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: lot of it also depends on the experience of the players. 132 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: If you've been in the league alone time, you respect 133 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: the team that are one intention because you know how 134 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: hard it is to win and how prideful it is 135 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: every week to go out there and play and uh 136 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: and I think that's the hardest part. If you're a 137 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: young team, they're like, oh, you look at the records, 138 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: just like you do in college, and you're like, oh, well, 139 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: I was a five star recruiter playing for a big 140 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 1: Division one team that records and they're not winning. We're 141 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna kill them, right, that's a mindset. But 142 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: I think just in the National Football what we're just 143 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: talking here and we're just echoing it's that it's hard 144 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: to win in this league, and especially when you only 145 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: won one game. You've been in a lot of close game, 146 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: lost a lot of coach games in the fourth quarter. 147 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,799 Speaker 1: And it's bragging whites too. It's the state of Texas, 148 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: you know. So I going in the game, I think 149 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: I knew it. It's gonna be close somehow, some way, 150 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: and they're gonna figure it out. And um and I 151 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: thought when we were digging ourselves in those big holes 152 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: and they had a chance to make some plays and 153 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: they didn't to win, extend the lead, and that pull 154 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: the game away, which we were fighting. We were doing 155 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: everything we could to be in that position to finish 156 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: at the end. So overall, I just look at that 157 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: game and I was like, oh, we knew it was 158 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: gonna be adult fight. But guess what, at the end 159 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: of the day, nobody cares how you get that w 160 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: You got that win. We move on to the next Now. 161 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: I want to ask you this, what has the film 162 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: shown you about what happened on Sunday? Because we know 163 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: Lovey Smith that cover to that Tampa two shell that 164 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: he likes to play, and we saw some of that 165 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: and Dak's struggling with a little bit of that, but 166 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: on the final drive was really able to take advantage 167 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: of it. What did the film tell you about what 168 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: the Cowboys could do to improve to see some of 169 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: the different things that they saw against Houston. See this 170 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: is what I've been trying to explain for about five 171 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: weeks now. The plays that you took to go ninety 172 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: eight yards. Here's my tight end. Here's a guy sitting 173 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: right here. You're taking what they were giving you to 174 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: get yourself down methodically down the field. Why was you 175 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: forcing in the first half? Yeah, you don't. The greatest 176 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: quarterback to ever play the game is everybody, says Tom Brady. 177 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: Only two years he had random Moss. The rest of 178 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: it was things that were piece together. This kid not 179 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: only grew by learning how to be an ultra manager 180 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: of games, but he taught him to learn the game better, 181 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: take what the defense give you, trickle leg down the field. 182 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: It helps to strength of your team to defense. Don't 183 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: wait to for the end of the game to do this. 184 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: And first of all, I want to say it was 185 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: all about that three turnovers fellas you knocked the out 186 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 1: of these guys by going down and driving and scoring, 187 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: and then you turn the ball over the punt right 188 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, now you got an interception. 189 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: You gave a one what eleven and one team life? 190 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: That well, that's all we need as professionals. We we've 191 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: been kicked enough by all people, so you gave us 192 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: a life. But other than that, what you what he 193 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: should do is go back and say I took the 194 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: tight end five yards. I took a wide receiver ten yards. 195 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: While you don't have to force nothing, I just believe 196 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: that Patrick said this team offensively play a little more 197 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: up tempo because you saw what Dak did in that 198 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: final drive. It was Reid reacting goal and we've seen 199 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: him at times when he's been able to play with 200 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: that kind of up tempo pace, he's lethal. Should we 201 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: see more of that from Keller Moore in this offense 202 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: going forward here? I would like to see more, but 203 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: I feel like there's a line there for a couple 204 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: of reasons. Number One, if you're running no holda, which 205 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: we've seen Dak Prescott can be lethal, like in your 206 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: words and very accurate in that capacity. But also keep 207 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 1: in mind the Cowboys struggle when they lost Terrence Steele 208 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: at right tackle, when Josh Ball was tasked with coming in. 209 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: He he had a couple of serviceable stamps, but then 210 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: the two big plays that worked against him helped blow 211 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,199 Speaker 1: up the situation for Dak Prescott. When they put Jason 212 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: Peters at right tackle, it was a ninety eight yard 213 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: game winning drive and Peters held up very well. So 214 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: that's a conversation for if we'll see what the rotation 215 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: is between Ball and Peters next week. But it's to 216 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: note that as well. But kind of circling back to 217 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: the no huddle, you have to make sure that you're 218 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: also giving your your guys time to breathe the rest 219 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: because if you're going no huddle, and it can be strategic, 220 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: you might be doing it at times to keep the 221 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: other team from being able to substitute, but it also 222 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: keeps you from being able to substitute. So there's a 223 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: line in the sand that says, okay, I would like 224 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 1: to see more. But schematically speaking, you have to make 225 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: sure that you're getting your guys rotated in as needed. 226 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: And you were talking more importantly when you're talking about 227 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: up tempo, you got to think about what just happened 228 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: to your defense? Did they just get fifteen plays seven 229 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 1: minute so it's a whole lot rides up into that 230 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: up tempo and we shouldn't have to worry about not 231 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: the uh down for what you said, Patrick, but we 232 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: should have to have to worry about because our guys. 233 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 1: All right, guys, we don't have a if either. The 234 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 1: only thing that changes is the running backs. Everybody else 235 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: stays the same. The tight is the why receivers because 236 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: they're four d Yeah, but I'm just saying you, but 237 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 1: now they to that point, they also have t Y 238 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: Hill And now we'll see what happens with the OBJ situation. 239 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,839 Speaker 1: But even if OBJ doesn't like, I feel like it 240 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: will land. But now you're really rollbusting the white receiver unit. 241 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 1: And again you're running four deep and tight ends, so 242 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: you're gonna need to rotate some stock. He over just 243 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: like most folks. Man, that's finas football. Uh huh, this kid, 244 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: it's funas the football. He m's not here. Yeah, he's 245 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: not gonna help us win nothing, not right now, not 246 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: a week from now, not two weeks from now. Get 247 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 1: what you got and rolled with it, t Y Yeah, yeah, 248 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: they look. Patrick started to touch on a little bit 249 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 1: that when it came to the injuries, that this Cowboys 250 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: team is suffering as a game. We know that the 251 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:57,959 Speaker 1: NFL's of war portrist you're gonna go through injuries, is 252 00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 1: gonna go through a lot. How does that affect the 253 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: team's mentality when you're seeing guys go down week after 254 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 1: week and trying to maintain what you believe is something 255 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: special that's happening with this football team. Well, that's why 256 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 1: that's the hardest part is when you're a good team, 257 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: you have somebody's down. You hope the next man up, right, 258 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: that's the whole mentality. And you have on the opposite side, 259 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: if you're a defensive player, you see it a man down, 260 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: Guess what the defensive coordinator, especially for Houston Texas, go, hey, 261 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 1: we gotta we gotta reek leak down. How do we 262 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: tack We're gonna break this this defense down with its 263 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: offense down whatever. Um. The concept is so in a game, 264 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: it goes by so fast. Players sometimes don't understand the 265 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: big picture until you get back of the game. You're 266 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 1: watch it from afar, you're you're you're part of the 267 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 1: coaching staff and you see it. But players, you just 268 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 1: go out there and you just roll and you just 269 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: gotta play. And you know how you did everything you 270 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 1: did all week the best you could to prepare yourself 271 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: for the opportunity, and you go out there, you can play, 272 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 1: and injury is gonna happen, and you know that you 273 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 1: never know what's gonna be and who it's gonna be. 274 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: These guys get the next guy, gotta get in and 275 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: just gotta go away and do your job because that's 276 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: what you're paying for and that's what your team are 277 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: asked you to do. Nate, real quick, what's the conversation 278 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: like in the locker room as you guys continue to 279 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: keep yourselves where you need to be, staying in the moment, 280 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: as you're watching guys go through injuries and still trying 281 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: to maintain what you believe as a special group in 282 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: that room. You go to work. You go to work 283 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: and see, I didn't like when Josh Ball went in 284 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: the game. I really didn't because I believe what I 285 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:24,079 Speaker 1: see and he never showed me nothing. This kid, I'm 286 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: not saying he can't play, but what I am saying 287 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: training camp was a disaster for him. The preseason was 288 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: not nice to him. Now you're throwing him into this 289 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: ain't backups playing and so I knew sooner or later. 290 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, what'st open under on this 291 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: kids before they get But it made me mad because 292 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: that's where we wasn't ready as a team. We was 293 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: not ready as a coaching staff. Because you just can't 294 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 1: throw this kid out there and not give him maximum 295 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: protection to help him. See that. That's that's how I 296 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: look at We gotta give him maximum per text. I 297 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 1: don't care if it ain't a run, help him by chipping, 298 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: but I don't care give him help.

But 340 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 1: he added a cup of ball adverbs in there. But 341 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: also the game of football. It's just so unique in 342 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: so many ways that he breaks down all the referees. 343 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: That's seventeen cruis of referees. Um, he breaks them down. 344 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 1: And then every week he'll tell us what coul it 345 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: is that, Hey, this cool. We're creatures of habits, right, Hey, 346 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: this crew calls a lot of holding. You guys, keep 347 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 1: your hands inside, Hey, p I he got much out 348 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: of passing afference at DBS. You'll watch out them. So 349 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: stuff like that you learn and you appreciate how how 350 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: he was so successful and so all the stops he 351 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,479 Speaker 1: was he were. I'm interested to hear. What was your 352 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,199 Speaker 1: first meeting like with him? When you first met him 353 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: and found that I'm gonna be playing for Bill Parcels, 354 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,199 Speaker 1: You know what I felt like? Um, he didn't really 355 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 1: want us there, obviously, just because he was so accustomed 356 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: to bigger linebacker six four, two hundred and fifty pound 357 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: middle linebacker, inside linebacker. And I remember many jokes. He's 358 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: a jokester too, who's a he's a comedian. And then 359 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: and he is so witty. But he always talked about 360 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: Dexter Cochlean myself. He goes, man, when's the circus where 361 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: we got to mid this linebacker? So he'll throw that out. 362 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 1: But but I'll first meeting what day I made just 363 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,919 Speaker 1: that he it was just football, nothing else but football. 364 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 1: I don't care anything else. But if you can show 365 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 1: me to play football, you give effort, you don't make mistakes, 366 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 1: you can be on my team. Yeah, and he gave us. 367 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 1: He laid it out and that's all he wanted was 368 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: an opportunity. I didn't go out there. And play the 369 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: game well. A Cowboys wide receivery knew one has an 370 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: opportunity to help this team win football games down the stretch. 371 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 1: And that is t Y Hilton. Eugene's his government name, 372 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 1: and he now is a member of the Dallas Cowboys. 373 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: Now I want to start with you with this one. 374 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: No Odell Beckham Junior not around here, just so that 375 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: you know, not around here. But see why Hilton is here. 376 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 1: What does he bring to this team that will help 377 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: this wide receiver room hopefully get to where they want 378 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: to go by the end of the season. Here, just 379 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 1: a veteran presence, you know, Route runner. It was the 380 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 1: explosive guy with the coats, that's who we played with. 381 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 1: I'm one of those guys. I'm just gonna be patient 382 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: and see what they do with him. Sure, you know 383 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: everybody's projecting, you know what they're gonna do with him. 384 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: But through my past experience, I'm seeing how coach more 385 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: do It does things. I would like to wait and 386 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: see how they will use him. And is he a 387 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: stop gap guy? Is he just a guy that's gonna 388 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,880 Speaker 1: be effective as the season go on. I just want 389 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: to wait and see. I want to give him every 390 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: opportunity to show me, show the fans. What does he 391 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: bring besides this veteran leadership to the room. Patrick, This 392 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: is the guy that's thirty three years of age. Some 393 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: of his best football that we saw during his time 394 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: with Andrew Luck when he was at the Indianapolis Coast, 395 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 1: has struggled with injury over the last few years. What 396 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 1: does he have left based on what you have seen 397 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: from him and what he can help bring to this 398 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 1: Cowboys wide receiver. The only question for me on tile 399 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: Hill is he healthy? Yeah? And I don't know that 400 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,199 Speaker 1: I trust the medical staff in this league more than 401 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: I would say Britt Browning in the medical staff here 402 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 1: in Dallas. So if they give the green light as 403 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 1: they deal with t Y Hill, and I feel like 404 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: he's ready to go. And keep in mind he hasn't 405 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: played football this particular season, so physically he should in 406 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: fact feel refreshed, as he stated, But he's only two 407 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:40,160 Speaker 1: years removed from seven hundred and sixty six receiving yards 408 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 1: and five touchdowns in the final year the Swan Song 409 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 1: of Philip Rivers. So had the neck issue last year, 410 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: but nine starts after he came back from AYR and 411 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: again coming off of the break, so physically he should 412 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 1: be right there. What would also help with his durability 413 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: at another gold over there? What will physically help his 414 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 1: durability as well? With this Cowboys team, he doesn't have 415 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: to be wide receiver one or two. He gets to 416 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 1: split reps with Noah Brown for wide receiver four. And 417 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: like Big Nick said, I'm interested to see how Kelly 418 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 1: Moore schemes him up. But this is a guy who 419 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: could very well pass the ten thousand yard career receiving 420 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: mark this season. So if he's on the field, even 421 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: if it's as a decoy defensively, you have to respect 422 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 1: him and you have to respect the fact that he 423 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:25,479 Speaker 1: can take the top off or that he can get 424 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: a lot of yak off of a screen or a bubble, 425 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: and that's going to open up plays in space for 426 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup and See Lamb to continue to operate. It's 427 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: just it's another weapon for the defense to have to 428 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: scheme for, as if they didn't have enough already. And 429 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: do you talk about the two horses in the backfield 430 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: with Tony Poll and Ezekiel Elliott, Cowboys are really really 431 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,400 Speaker 1: proving that they're as all in as they've ever been 432 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: te Why Hilton spending he says, ten hours a day 433 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: here at the Star, trying to pour through his playbook 434 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 1: to get ready at home. Yeah, study exactly. He's got 435 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 1: three older kids, so he's trying to get through all 436 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:01,880 Speaker 1: of that family at home to dad. When you look 437 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: at this team, and Patrick started to mention a little bit, 438 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: it feels like they are trying to make moves to 439 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: be able to get them where they want to go. 440 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: Do you get that sense that the Jones family what 441 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: they're trying to do here is put this team in 442 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: the best position that by the time we get to 443 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 1: the end of the season they'll be able to compete 444 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 1: with the Philadelphias of the world, and who they believe 445 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: they'll see in the playoffs will be deep into the playoffs. Yes, 446 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: so I definitely agree with that. I think this is 447 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 1: a big, big, big pickup, just because if you look 448 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 1: at the scheme of the teams, right, you're talking about 449 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: our team with them gallop with CD Lamb and then 450 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 1: you got, um, if you put t Hilton, t Y 451 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 1: Hilton inside, who are you gonna man up? Who you 452 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: inna double? And then now I always think about like 453 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: T y Hilton. Those those guys are so crafty, so quick, 454 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: so explosive. You hate to play against those guys. Always 455 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: a linebacker we had. Every time you have to go 456 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 1: into the slot or you have to bump out to 457 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: the number three, it's a little receiver man. So I 458 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 1: think that's where you're gonna figure out down the road. 459 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: And so all it depends on how he has to 460 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: as health and also his you know, how gets adapted. 461 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: How quickly were you adapted to the game and back 462 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 1: back to playing the game of football? And I think 463 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: that's gonna be interesting to see. But but as a 464 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: defender looking to stick at the team, you're talking about 465 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 1: the two running backs and even now with the tight end, 466 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: what do you do? Right, it's a defender, who do 467 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: you even stop? Who you to give up? Who you've 468 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: allowed to take over you? Even with the Belichick mindset, 469 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,239 Speaker 1: with the Parcels mindset, take the best player away, you're 470 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 1: gonna take CD lamb. Guess what gallup you got to 471 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 1: Why you get the tight you get the two running back? 472 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,199 Speaker 1: What do you do you always want the second third 473 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 1: guy to beat you? We got those guys that are 474 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 1: really one A, one B. Right, Yeah, and Nate All 475 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: these guys need help in terms of protection and blocking, 476 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: and this offensive line has gone through a little bit 477 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 1: of reshuffling and it's going through some more of it now. 478 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: We expect Tyran Smith to be back here very soon, 479 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: maybe as soon as Sunday. Jerry Jones saying that he 480 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,479 Speaker 1: expects Tyrn Smith to play on Sunday. Jason Peter sliding 481 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: over the right tackle and doing well, especially on that 482 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: final drive. What do you see? How do you feel 483 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 1: about this offensive line now? And I'll ask you this 484 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: question as well. Who is Nate Newton's best five that 485 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: he's sending out there on Sunday against Jacksonville when they 486 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,479 Speaker 1: get ready to play. And the last question, I honestly 487 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: can't tell you, yeah, because, Uh, I know what. My 488 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: Tyler Smith is the best. Uh he's the best left tackle, 489 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 1: you know, just from him playing and having reps. I 490 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: looked at him a little bit guard this past week. 491 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 1: It just did not look good. So I'm thinking about 492 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 1: leaving my first three guys in there be honest uh 493 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 1: McGovern and the great all pro right guard, and then 494 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: I'm i gotta figure out how I'm gonna play my 495 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 1: tackles it's gonna be Smith, Tyrone Smith and Tyler over there? 496 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: Is it gonna be Tyler and um Peterson, you know, 497 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 1: rotating in and out of that right tackle because I 498 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: want to leave that middle like it is sure, you know? 499 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 1: And so so you're not taking McGovern out of his 500 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,719 Speaker 1: left guards Martin there. Yeah, you're trying to figure out 501 00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: what to do with the left and right tackle. Very interesting, Yeah, 502 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 1: because in the new NFL, and I was selling some 503 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 1: people in the new NFL. How long is it gonna 504 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: take Tyron Smith to play when me and him played? 505 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 1: You ready, let's go play? Not everybody got this new 506 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: ramp up NFL. And how do you ever get in 507 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:21,239 Speaker 1: shape if you don't play not ten players? Rest? How 508 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: do you build a rhythm as an offensive lineman? I 509 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: do know this, fellas and y'all were smarter than me 510 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: this new NFL. I do know this right here, Take 511 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: them musical chairs into the playoffs and see what your 512 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: quarterback does. It's gone. It's not gonna be pretty at all. 513 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: And and for me, if you had asked me this 514 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 1: question before Terren Steele went down, the answer was different. 515 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: The answer would have been at that point I would 516 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 1: have liked to see the rookie Tyler remade on the 517 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: field in some capacity, But now without Terrence Steele, you 518 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,639 Speaker 1: really have to figure out that position. Because, yes, we 519 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: love what we saw from Jason Peters at right tackle, 520 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 1: but he hadn't played in that position since two thousand 521 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: and five. He is forty years old. Could he would 522 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: stand a one hundred percent of those offensive snaps at 523 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 1: right tackle? I'd probably say no. McCarty says he can, 524 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: so I would love I would love to see it, 525 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 1: but if not, I now need Tyler Smith as an 526 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: effective backup swing tackle that can step in if Tyron 527 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,640 Speaker 1: needs a ramp up period and or if Peters needs 528 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: somebody to jump in and spell him. I need that 529 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: guy to be Tyler Smith now. And you tie that 530 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,439 Speaker 1: into the fact that Connor mcgovernor he hasn't done anything 531 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 1: to lose his job at left guard. So all of 532 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: those follow those reasons. I'm kind of with a big 533 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: name on this one. You put Peters there, but now 534 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 1: you put Tyler back the rook and you say, hey, 535 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: we've seen you play left tackle, let's start getting you 536 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 1: some reps in practice at right tackle just in case 537 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: we need to rotate you into that spot because the 538 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: owner has said that left tackle is tyron. Yeah, period, 539 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: and so that's it. My My thing is just right here. 540 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,959 Speaker 1: You are not weak right now. You know, you may 541 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: not have the best set of sent center and guard, 542 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: but you are not weak in the middle right now. 543 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: These guys have been ramping and playing with each other, 544 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: but yeah, yeah, they've been ramp. Don't don't don't make 545 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: eight moves because one move, yeah, you know, And I'm not. 546 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: I'm not counting ball out. I'm not, but I understand. 547 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: Don't play games when he go in the game. Sure, 548 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: protect this kid. So you got four tackles that you 549 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: got to decide how you gonna play. But please, let's 550 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: don't go to the first round of the playoffs. Well, 551 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna get ten plays for this guy in five 552 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: because these I want to I want to see you 553 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: get out there with your best five, whomever that is. Yeah, 554 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: get them into a rhythm so that by the time 555 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: you get to the end of the regular season of 556 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: the playoffs, we're not asking having to ask these questions 557 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: about who is the best five? Are regrotating guys in 558 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: that because I understand obviously, trying to protect Tyler Smith 559 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: Be saw him at left guarding training camp a little 560 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 1: bit during OTAs. How do you find the best way 561 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: to be able to get these guys prepared to play? That, 562 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: to me is my biggest question going down the stretcher. 563 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: Who is those best five and how do you get 564 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: those guys ready to play every single week? Absolutely need 565 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: that continuity for your quarterback, as will. Your quarterback needs 566 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 1: to know that when he drops back, he doesn't have 567 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: the second guess what's going on on that right tackle, 568 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: because that's processing speed that takes away from it. And 569 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: you guys know better than anyone this is a game 570 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: of a thousands of a second in the reaction. So 571 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 1: if Dak Prescott when he drops back, if his first 572 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: thought is peeking over at Josh Ball to see what's happening, 573 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: he might have just missed his first read and maybe 574 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: even his second read. It really causes the play to 575 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: break down him. Before you know it, there's a pass 576 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: rusher in his personal space and the players disrupted or 577 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 1: broken up all together might be critical sack. Whatever the 578 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: case may be. Continue continuity is going to be huge. 579 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: You know, it's crazy you're talking about that with Dak Frascott. 580 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 1: It's amazing because he's a right handed quarterback. Yeah, every 581 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: time he fixt the all he flips his hip over. 582 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: Guess if I get to see all right, exact what 583 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: you talk about. But but all right, the offensive line. 584 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:04,959 Speaker 1: I think the office sience is good, and I think 585 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: Nate made a great point of just hey, keeping the 586 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: interior guys there. You got options on the outside. Now 587 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: this is the time really to play the game and 588 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: just to go see how they're going and guess what, 589 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: maybe flip the guy, go flip the guy. Have a 590 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: swing guy, because really, yeah, it really is the luxury 591 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: because you have the experience of Peterson and he got 592 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: experience of Smith on on either side, right left tackle, respectively. 593 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: And then you got the young guy that's been playing both. Yeah, 594 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 1: with the absence of time, he went over there and 595 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: he started with advice, so he really played most. So 596 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: I think it's really a luxury with what the Cowboys 597 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: had with the swingman in the young Tyler slash Smith. 598 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: It is Cowboys Crosside presented by s WBCs WBCPEO helping 599 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: to alleviate the hr AD Ministry a burden that comes 600 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: with running a business.

I'll start with our resident linebacker here. 622 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons was on the Von Cast with Von Miller 623 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:01,800 Speaker 1: as he of course is dealing with a torn a 624 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: cil trying to recover and come back for the Buffalo 625 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,720 Speaker 1: Bills next year. But Michael parson is talking about Jalen 626 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,840 Speaker 1: Hurts and his MVP Candidac. He said, Hey, is it 627 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: Hurts or is it the team? And obviously Jayleen Hurts 628 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 1: is having a fantastic year. The Cowboys are going to 629 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: see the Eagles on Christmas Eve. But I want to 630 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 1: frame this question in the idea of bulletin board material. 631 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 1: When you hear things like that and you're the Philadelphia Eagles, 632 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 1: do you go back and say, Hey, did y'all hear 633 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: what Michael had to say about our team and about 634 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: our quarterback? Talk to me about bulletin board material? Is 635 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,800 Speaker 1: that a real thing that when it comes to the 636 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: locker room it is to a certain point, absolutely, And 637 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 1: I think for as players, as competitors, you know what's 638 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 1: going on. But there's a mutual respect right in the 639 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: league when you play, especially in the division. When you 640 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 1: know your division, you know, hey, you got these three 641 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 1: teams that you have to beat, and they in order 642 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: to do anything in a season, you got to overcome 643 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 1: this team. And with what Philadelphia is doing with Jalen Hurtson, 644 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 1: it is matilla. You can get stuff and you put 645 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: it on, but you as a team, board, as a 646 00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator, as a coach, and go ahead, and hey, 647 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:03,320 Speaker 1: did you hear what? What? What the parson said about you? 648 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 1: So he knows for sure, But guess what, at the 649 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,880 Speaker 1: end of the day, it's not when you with a 650 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 1: ball snap none of that. It doesn't matter, right. It's 651 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,320 Speaker 1: great leading up to it. That's that's the hype, the media, 652 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:19,359 Speaker 1: the expect expectations. But after you snapped the ball, man, 653 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:20,879 Speaker 1: Harry was just trying to play the ball. We're trying 654 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 1: to execute what we practice and this is what we 655 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,880 Speaker 1: gotta do, and and all that stuff between individual gets out. 656 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: It's out of Nate. You played with a coach who 657 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: was a master psychologist and Jimmy Johnson and who knew 658 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 1: how to get the most out of you all as 659 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: far as play was concerned. Would he look at something 660 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: like that and be like, hey, did y'all hear what 661 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 1: such a such had to say about Nate this week? 662 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 1: Did you hear what such a suns had to say 663 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 1: about Emmon? Was that a real thing in the locker 664 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 1: room for you guys? The media brought it to you, 665 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:50,800 Speaker 1: the coaches now that the media was gonna bring it 666 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 1: to you. Yeah, we don't have the social media that 667 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:56,280 Speaker 1: we have today driving teams, but the media was gonna 668 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 1: bring it. Say hey man, this is what was said, 669 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 1: and they would you know, were word say. But the 670 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 1: bottom line is with my team is that would have 671 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 1: came out today and we're to look back and said, now, 672 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: the last time we played, this is what I did 673 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 1: to you. Yeah, So that that's how I look at it. 674 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 1: The last time the Cowboys played looked like Jayalen. Whether 675 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,400 Speaker 1: it was the system or whether it was him, someone's 676 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: working out. So you know, we'll see, you know, get 677 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 1: through Jacksonville and we will see real question, was it though? Huh? 678 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 1: I guess my biggest takeaway from that first battle with 679 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: the Eagles, and this is not to take away anything 680 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: from Jalen Hurtson and his ascension from year one to 681 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 1: year two, and also give credit to Howard Roseman the 682 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 1: general manager up there because he between A. J. Brown 683 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: and the Heisman winner DeVante Smith. I mean he stacked 684 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 1: weapons there, which is what the gym was supposed to do. 685 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 1: And what Jayalen is doing is using those weapons to 686 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: help win games. That's what's supposed to happen. But it 687 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:03,400 Speaker 1: took that Aadelphia Eagles team three interceptions from a backup 688 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: quarterback in Cooper Rush to defeat the Cowboys narrowly on 689 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,879 Speaker 1: their own field in Philadelphia. I say all that to say, 690 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:16,360 Speaker 1: bulletin ball material or not, Christmas Eve cometh yes. And 691 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,280 Speaker 1: to that point, all this, all this suspense and hype, 692 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 1: once that ball gets kicked off from Christmas Eve, we 693 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 1: are finally going to find out who the best team 694 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 1: in the NFC is, which I will start with this 695 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 1: before we quickly go to break here. It's Jacksonville trap 696 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 1: game for Dallas on Sunday. It is not. In The 697 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 1: reason I say it's not a trap game is because, 698 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: as we said earlier in this show, Jacksonville, they're better 699 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: than the Texans, They're better than the Coats. This is 700 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 1: a team that you better take seriously or you might 701 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 1: get embarrassed. The Tennessee Titans, who are in a they're 702 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:52,760 Speaker 1: scratching and clawing for a playoff spot. Just got thirty 703 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,720 Speaker 1: six points dropped on them by this Jacksonville jag Wars 704 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 1: team and the coach by Doug Peterson, who knows how 705 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 1: to put up y'all and knows how to put points 706 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 1: on the board. And they're going against the Cowboys defense 707 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 1: that's now without Jordan Lewis, without Anthony Brown, Kelvin Joseph 708 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 1: is still trying to feel his way. Had a flash 709 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 1: play on the third down PBu, but before they struggled mightily, right, 710 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,439 Speaker 1: So you're going you get McKinsey Alexander, and you get 711 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 1: um Trey von Mulling off of Waivers today, and you're 712 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 1: hoping that Kendall Sheffield, these veterans can help these younger 713 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 1: guys compliment Treyvon Diggs. But until you see the consistency, 714 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 1: and now you're going against Say Jones, Christian Kirk and 715 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, this can't be a trap game. They have 716 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: to be Jacksonville taking this. Marvin Jones legs and and 717 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 1: Etn is also a receiver out of the backfield, so 718 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: the linebackers are going to get tested as well. This 719 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,840 Speaker 1: Cowboys team better take Jacksonville seriously. Tell me why this 720 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:52,719 Speaker 1: isn't a trap game for the Dallas Cowboys. Well, I 721 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,879 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be one of those games out It's 722 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: just they're a good football team. Patrick just sitting this 723 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 1: is a good friend and they and they get even 724 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:03,360 Speaker 1: better from week one to week two. For two now 725 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,800 Speaker 1: we're fifty fourteen, they're getting a lot better and they're competitive. 726 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: And Doug Peterson knows the Dallas Cowboys. He have been 727 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,320 Speaker 1: in the game that long when they were in the 728 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:14,440 Speaker 1: same division, so he knows them. And in my opinion, 729 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,919 Speaker 1: I don't know, he might have been punt the ball 730 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 1: in this game. He's just gonna play it every down 731 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: just because what do they got to lose? Because really 732 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: that he's trying to prove that, hey, we we're gonna 733 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 1: bet a football, tap, we're going to play, we're gonna 734 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 1: fight him, and then that's what his personality is. But 735 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a trap game. I think we 736 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: better take him to real seriously, because it's gonna be 737 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,239 Speaker 1: a good game. Nate real quick before I go to break. 738 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: Why is this not a trap game for Cowboys? Yeah? 739 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 1: You know what? Because they are unpredictable the Cowboys. They 740 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: can drop four they on this team, you know, or 741 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 1: they can go out and struggle and try to find 742 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:50,319 Speaker 1: a way to win. So uh, to me, every game 743 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys is a trap game because they 744 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 1: can get full of themselves real quick, and we as 745 00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: media will find a reason every game to give him 746 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 1: that to give him that that confidence.

So I 775 00:46:56,560 --> 00:47:00,879 Speaker 1: am really just taking care of five Yeah's my wife 776 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 1: have five kids and uh so I'm busy with that. 777 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:07,120 Speaker 1: But really I'm running Chick fil A down in Fort 778 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,920 Speaker 1: Worth and it's funny, It's I grew up in a 779 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 1: restaurant business, and I wanted to coach football, but unfortunately, UM, 780 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:16,839 Speaker 1: I didn't want to cut my family around the country 781 00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:21,680 Speaker 1: every few years. So I decided to open a restaurant. 782 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:25,320 Speaker 1: And I saw my mom may impact people. She impacted 783 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:27,880 Speaker 1: so many my relatives, my friends, and uh people that 784 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:29,320 Speaker 1: work for my mom, and I was like, wow, I 785 00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 1: want to I want to do that. So what I 786 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:33,399 Speaker 1: do now is I try to give people a chance 787 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:35,760 Speaker 1: in life to have a bad opportunity what they had before. 788 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,880 Speaker 1: And what's cool is that I use all football concept, 789 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 1: so everybody has everybody has hasn't rating your your five star, 790 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 1: your one star. Yeah, I don't have any one or 791 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,920 Speaker 1: two stars. Uh that hangs around, but uh but it's 792 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,920 Speaker 1: and then become concept teamwork. Everything's very similar to the 793 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:56,800 Speaker 1: game of football. So well, that's what I do. A 794 00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:58,880 Speaker 1: lot of that just because it's more of a mentorship 795 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:00,920 Speaker 1: and its parent of a It's been fun. It's been 796 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:02,920 Speaker 1: a lot of fun the last seven years. Do you 797 00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 1: still have a passion for coaching, because that's something that 798 00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,239 Speaker 1: at some point you want to dabble into. Are you 799 00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:09,120 Speaker 1: really good with what were you at right now and 800 00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:11,080 Speaker 1: what you're doing no, I never say never, but I 801 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 1: think it's something that you're always coaching anyways. You know, 802 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 1: it seems like the game of football has always been 803 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,440 Speaker 1: part of man, and uh, it's always been great for me. 804 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 1: And I think sometimes you missed the opportunity of maybe 805 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:24,399 Speaker 1: impacting somebody on the football they're teaching them something. I'll 806 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,319 Speaker 1: share something that you know. It's because are you guys? 807 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 1: The game of football really taught us a lot of 808 00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:31,960 Speaker 1: life skills. And but but I might enjoying what I'm 809 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:33,640 Speaker 1: doing right now, though, Well, you should go help your 810 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:35,480 Speaker 1: fisher down there in Texas. Now, he could use some 811 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,279 Speaker 1: of your expertise down there helping coach those boys down 812 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 1: there after what they struggle with this year. But I'm 813 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 1: sure next year, hopefully it'll be much better for your 814 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:44,960 Speaker 1: Texas saying the magazines they can see to matriculate through 815 00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,320 Speaker 1: the SEC.

I'm not 824 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:14,880 Speaker 1: gonna ask Nate because Nate knows what time it is 825 00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 1: when it comes to predictions what the Dallas Cowboys. But Nate, 826 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:20,799 Speaker 1: tell me the X factor that helps the Cowboys get 827 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 1: a win on Sunday against what is a very competitive 828 00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars football team, especially with the improvement of this 829 00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:29,879 Speaker 1: offense with Chevor Lawrence, use your tight ends a little 830 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:33,239 Speaker 1: bit more, okay, and uh, as a quarterback, don't throw 831 00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,320 Speaker 1: pass your first option when it's running wide open. So 832 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:39,279 Speaker 1: you know the same mentality that you are you trying 833 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 1: to tell me something, Nate, was that doing that a 834 00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:44,719 Speaker 1: little bit on sundac Okay? You know, people that know 835 00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:47,360 Speaker 1: the game saw that he was forcing, you know, And 836 00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 1: once you stop forcing and let the game come to 837 00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:52,600 Speaker 1: you like you used to let it come to you, 838 00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:56,279 Speaker 1: and we'll we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll do These folks in 839 00:49:57,360 --> 00:49:58,759 Speaker 1: think for me, it's good. More of the defense, I 840 00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: think it's gonna challenge. I think this the young football 841 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:02,840 Speaker 1: team that has a lot of weapons, quarterbacks good. I 842 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:04,879 Speaker 1: think the're gonna be a challenge as you're gonna move 843 00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:07,120 Speaker 1: forward and go into the playoff thinking about the playoff 844 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:08,680 Speaker 1: down the road, you're gonna play some of these teams 845 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 1: that have some good quarterbacks, and I think it's a 846 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:11,960 Speaker 1: good challenge if you have a mindset going in and 847 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,120 Speaker 1: shutting down Trevor Lawrence and shutting down the receivers and 848 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:16,279 Speaker 1: the running back in ETI I think it's gonna be 849 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 1: a challenge. I think that's what mindset would be if 850 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 1: it was me, if I sharing with the team, I 851 00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:22,520 Speaker 1: think that's gonna be the X factor for me. It's 852 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 1: the defense shutting down Trevor Lawrence and their offense. A 853 00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:27,560 Speaker 1: little bit of science from a man, Patrick Walker. The 854 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:31,239 Speaker 1: numbers eighteen. The Cobs are forced eighteen forced fumbles in 855 00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, the most in a season since twenty 856 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 1: seventeen when they forced twenty, and the most through thirteen 857 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:38,920 Speaker 1: games of a season since two thousand and six, when 858 00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:42,360 Speaker 1: they forced nineteen. How does Dan Quinn go about attacking 859 00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence and Doug Peterson in this offense on Sunday. Well, 860 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:46,840 Speaker 1: first of all, you gott to force them to be 861 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 1: one dimensional. You have to take away the run game 862 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:52,359 Speaker 1: as best you can. We understand that that Travis back there, 863 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,360 Speaker 1: he can really help change the game for the positive, 864 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 1: for the better for Jacksonville. But if you can force 865 00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,800 Speaker 1: this game on the shoulder of a young Trevor Lawrence, 866 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 1: because even though he's proven that he's talented, Dan Quinn 867 00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:05,680 Speaker 1: knows how to scheme against younger guys. So what you 868 00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,040 Speaker 1: want to do is make that younger quarterback beat the hero. 869 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:10,560 Speaker 1: Forced him to be the hero. That's gonna give you 870 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 1: opportunities for potential takeaways, and the Cowboys are proven they 871 00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:15,360 Speaker 1: can take in the ball away. I think this is 872 00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:18,400 Speaker 1: a game where the Cowboys secondary outside of Treyvon Digs 873 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 1: might struggle a bit because the Jaguars have so many 874 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 1: weapons for Trevor to throw two. So I believe the 875 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:25,480 Speaker 1: war wasn't going to get some points on the board, 876 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 1: but one or two takeaways. If the Cowboys can leave 877 00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:30,799 Speaker 1: this game with a plus two takeaway margin, they win 878 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:33,960 Speaker 1: this game. Very interesting note in this game, the Cowboys 879 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,279 Speaker 1: are looking for their first ever win in Jacksonville. So 880 00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:39,120 Speaker 1: if you're a member. Back in two thousand and six, 881 00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:42,360 Speaker 1: Jacksonville won that game. The second time that they played 882 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: was in London, and des Brian of course went off 883 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 1: that day in London, and the last time these two 884 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:53,680 Speaker 1: teams got together it was forty to seven Dallas and 885 00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:56,320 Speaker 1: back in twenty eighteen, Rumba was also injured in that 886 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:59,279 Speaker 1: London game. That's right, Yeah, that's right. Injury. He wasn't 887 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 1: one hundred percent, that's right. So the cow was looking 888 00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,799 Speaker 1: for their first ever win in Jacksonville on Sunday afternoon. 889 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:06,759 Speaker 1: As we get ready for our last four minutes here 890 00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:08,960 Speaker 1: that do you have a score for us? And how 891 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:12,720 Speaker 1: the Cowboys ultimately extend this win streak to five against 892 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:14,920 Speaker 1: Jacksonville on Sunday Firsday. Come off with my head is 893 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 1: I would say jackson Vison score some points. Obviously with 894 00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 1: Patrick I was at thirty five seventeen Cowboys. Okay, okay, 895 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 1: one d them up a little bit, but we scored 896 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:29,840 Speaker 1: some points on offense. Nate's gonna say one hundred and 897 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:34,120 Speaker 1: nothing Dallas Cowboys bypass and eight. Patrick Walker gave me 898 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 1: a score. And how the Cowboys ultimately get it done? 899 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:38,600 Speaker 1: Like I said, I think the Jacksonville Jagon Boys scored 900 00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 1: some points here. Of the young Cowboys secondary outside of 901 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:43,399 Speaker 1: the Trevon Diggs, I think they give up a couple 902 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 1: of big plays before they kind of get it together. 903 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,000 Speaker 1: But I think the Cowboys get a couple of takeaways 904 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 1: added possessions for Dak Prescott in that offense, especially if 905 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:53,160 Speaker 1: t Y Hilton can play and contribute. Think the Cowboys 906 00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 1: can put up thirty four thirty five points. So let's 907 00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 1: make it even, you know, let's get Brett ma hurt 908 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:01,560 Speaker 1: some some boots, so let's says thirty four thirty four 909 00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 1: twenty seven. Is it's going to be a closer thirty 910 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:06,840 Speaker 1: twenty seven? Yeah, I think this game is gonna be 911 00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 1: a little bit closer than what the experts may think. 912 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 1: Cowboys are a four and a half point favorite currently 913 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 1: right now going on the road to Jacksonville. I like 914 00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:17,239 Speaker 1: what Trevor Lawrence is doing down there. This offense is 915 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,760 Speaker 1: getting better. It's amazing what happens when you bring confidence 916 00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 1: into an organization and you see a guy who's a 917 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:24,440 Speaker 1: super Bowl whenny head coach. It's amazing what happens when 918 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 1: you get guys in there who actually know what they're 919 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:27,920 Speaker 1: doing and how the football team you can improve and 920 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:29,879 Speaker 1: we're starting to see that with Jacksonville. And you mentioned 921 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,160 Speaker 1: a little bit earlier the confidence that they have in 922 00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 1: beating Tennessee the way that they did Trevor Lawrence with 923 00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 1: three touchdowns in that game. I think it's gonna be 924 00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:38,880 Speaker 1: a closer. I'm gonna take the Cowboys in this, so 925 00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:43,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go twenty eight twenty one on Sunday. Yeah, 926 00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:46,680 Speaker 1: still seven, still seven, But I think this game's all 927 00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 1: going to the fourth quarter. And I think the jackson 928 00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 1: Jaguar is gonna have something and that you were mentioned 929 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:52,000 Speaker 1: a little bit earlier, They've got something to prove. This 930 00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:54,279 Speaker 1: is a good team that is starting to figure out 931 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 1: some things. The record doesn't necessarily indicate that, but then 932 00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:58,680 Speaker 1: over the last few weeks, it's a team that's getting better. 933 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:00,480 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna give the Cowboys a little bit 934 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 1: of something to think about before Philadelphia comes in for 935 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 1: Christmas Eve and what will be arguably the biggest showdown 936 00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:11,359 Speaker 1: in the NFC East this year. I know they looked like, man, look, 937 00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 1: we never need to get through Jacksonville this week. Handle 938 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:18,239 Speaker 1: business before Philadelphia comes. I believe it because I've been there, 939 00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:24,200 Speaker 1: you know, play through Jacksonville, going to the Eagles, play 940 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:29,000 Speaker 1: through them. That means play clean, play right, show people 941 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,359 Speaker 1: who you are. You know. I'm waiting for that. I'm 942 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,640 Speaker 1: waiting for that consistency because if you don't find it, 943 00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:37,640 Speaker 1: it's gonna be ugly down the road. Yeah, and the 944 00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars will make you pay for it if you 945 00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 1: have the kind of mistakes that you had against the 946 00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 1: Houston Texans on Sunday. I think that's a big thing 947 00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:46,839 Speaker 1: for me, is what kind of mindset are you going 948 00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:48,799 Speaker 1: to come out with from the outset of this game? 949 00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:50,759 Speaker 1: And I don't want this team. It reminds me of 950 00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:52,440 Speaker 1: kind of the Lakers back in the early two thousands. 951 00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:53,719 Speaker 1: What we started to think about them as they got 952 00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:55,799 Speaker 1: later into that run. We viewed them as they turn 953 00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:57,560 Speaker 1: it on, turn it off type team. They would turn 954 00:54:57,600 --> 00:54:59,560 Speaker 1: it on in certain games and then other games you 955 00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:02,400 Speaker 1: wouldeel like they were sleepwalking cowboys. Kind of feel like 956 00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 1: they've been doing a little bit of that of the 957 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:05,400 Speaker 1: last few weeks. Are they gonna be a team that 958 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 1: ultimately turns it off for the rest of the year 959 00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:09,680 Speaker 1: or we're gonna still see some of this inconsistency that 960 00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:11,919 Speaker 1: you guys have been talking about and whether that shows 961 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:14,759 Speaker 1: up on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Hopefully we'll see 962 00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 1: the forty to three team that we saw against the 963 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:20,000 Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikes and not the one that allowed the Houston Texas. 964 00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 1: Saying it all the way until the final drive. We 965 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:26,600 Speaker 1: appreciate our Cowboys legend dat Win for joining us on 966 00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:29,399 Speaker 1: Cowboys Car Sock.
