1 00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:08,880 Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 2 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:18,760 Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. This is Mick Shot 3 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: screening live on Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the official 4 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys at now. Here are Bill Jones, Everson Wolves, 5 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:37,959 Speaker 1: and Nicky Spagnola. Well, here we are. It's another Monday 6 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 1: of mix shots after an uneventful day that Mickey Spagnola 7 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: is very happy. He did not make the trip to 8 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 1: our nation's capital over the weekend and it was not 9 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: in attendance personally, but I know, Mickey, you took it 10 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: all in. And here we are. That's why we call 11 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: this show mix shots, because there will be plenty for 12 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: you to fire away at today. Same song, different verse. Right. 13 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 1: I think we've heard this story before and it's starting 14 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 1: to get old, and I would imagine it's getting old 15 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. Not enough offense, uh, not nearly enough defense, 16 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:27,400 Speaker 1: And to me, we understand why they're struggling offensively defensively. 17 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: You know, it's getting to the point Bill where the 18 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: only conclusion I can come to is they're just not 19 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 1: good enough. And that might be the worst indictment of 20 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: a group that can be made. You know, before it 21 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: was the system. We're not used to these coaches, and 22 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: at seven, at seven games into the season, they're just 23 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: not playing well, not playing well at all, and I 24 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: don't know if they can get better. Stephen Jones today 25 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: on his segment radio segment said he still has hopes 26 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: that this defense is evolving. Well, it needs to start 27 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: evolving a little bit quicker because they're still making mental 28 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: mistakes and they still aren't good enough for some reason 29 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:23,519 Speaker 1: up front to stop anybody, including the Washington Redskins, who 30 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: came in with the thirty second rushing offense in the league. 31 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 1: They average, which would be dead last, dead last in 32 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: the league, right, eighty two point two rushing yards a game, 33 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: and they go for two o eight? Are you serious? 34 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, this is I thought we hit rock bottom 35 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: last week, but I think we're underground this week. And 36 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: there's Everson Walls. Everson Walls is joining us. How you doing, Everson? 37 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: I'm doing just fine? Can you hear me? Okay? I 38 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: hear you fine. I'm not sure if the rest of 39 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: America and the Worldwide Web the web does, but thumbs up, Chris, Yes, indeed, 40 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 1: Christy Beam by the way, So I'm good. But the 41 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: Cowboys are not. And by the way, Bill, thank you 42 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: Captain Obvious for clarifying what Spacknola was talking about. This 43 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: reminds me so much. You know what, it would be 44 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 1: good if he reminded me of last year's Pittsburgh Steelers. 45 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: If you recall, they lost Roethlisberger, they came in. I 46 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: think they were down to the third stream quarterback as 47 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: well by the time the season was over with. But 48 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: you know what they did, they made an extremely gallant 49 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: effort at hanging in there. You know, the coach Thomas, 50 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: he was like, look, no excuses. You know how he is. 51 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: This guy refuses to take handouts from anyone. And if 52 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: you recall last year, they didn't make the playoffs. And 53 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: of course now you're looking at this year, they're the 54 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: only undefeated team left in the NFL. But good teams 55 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: go through this a lot. It's how you go through 56 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: it and that makes a difference. And right now, I 57 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: don't think the Cowboys know what the hell they're doing Offensively. 58 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 1: We use the word excuses. Excuses is really not a 59 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: big enough word for what the problems that they have 60 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: with their offensive. Defensively, there are no excuses. These are 61 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: the players that we signed. This is the system that 62 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: we wanted Mike Nolan, although he's never been successful and 63 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: with any defense that he's had, we assumed that these 64 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 1: were the players that he needed. And we assumed wrong, 65 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: because it doesn't matter who he puts in. It doesn't 66 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: matter how they simplify the game plan itself. And I 67 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: can't see a defensive game plan being so difficult that 68 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: it makes you play as badly as our defense has 69 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: been playing all year long. I have not seen improvement. 70 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: And the only improvement that we may have seen was 71 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 1: against teams that was so horrible. We saw improvements against 72 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: the Giants, right well, yeah, that team, we should have 73 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: improvements against the offense they're horrible, and the same with 74 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 1: the Redskins, but we were even worse. So they let 75 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: you know where we are at the bottom of the 76 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 1: barrel right now. And Guys, I said to my son yesterday, 77 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: we have the worst team in the NFL. It's just 78 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: that simple. We have the worst team in the NFL 79 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: right now. That's not speaking as a disappointed fan, that's 80 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 1: not speaking as an alumni that his pride whose probably 81 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: is hurt as you look at this team, we have 82 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: no fights in us at all. That's what makes us 83 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: right now probably the worst team in the NFL. You know, 84 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: you mentioned Pittsburgh from last year, and as you were talking, 85 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 1: I looked up Pittsburgh. The difference with Pittsburgh last year, 86 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: of course, they lost Roethlisberger for the season, and they 87 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: were in their offense then was like was ranked twenty 88 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 1: seventh in the league, thirtieth in the league in total yards, 89 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 1: thirty first in passing yards twenty ninth and rushing yards. 90 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: So they were horrible on offense. Okay, and that and 91 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: where the Cowboys are with their offensive line right now, 92 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: that's pretty much the territory that we're talking about with 93 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: all the injuries that they've had. The difference was on defense. 94 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh played lights out last year. In fact, they were 95 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: number one in the league in sacks with fifty four. 96 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: They were number one in the league in takeaways with 97 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 1: thirty eight takeaways on the season. The Cowboys have two 98 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: takeaways on the season, and they were top five defense 99 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: overall last year. And so yeah, one for east fifths back, 100 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: one interceptor for each fist. There you go. And so 101 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: you would lie if you're gonna have the number of 102 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 1: injuries that the Cowboys have had on offense where you're 103 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: by necessity going to be a pedestrian offense. You have 104 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: to have your defense step up and play. And the 105 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: defense has not been there all year. And you must 106 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: have just read my column from Friday, because that was 107 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: my exact point. You know, I understand what's going on 108 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: on offense. You don't have your quarterback. You've got a 109 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: bunch of guys that you didn't even know we're going 110 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:35,239 Speaker 1: to make the team playing the offensive line and you 111 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: need and you're you're struggling with turnovers. I get it, 112 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: but that's no excuse for the defense. You could still 113 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: play defense. And that's the most troubling part of this 114 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: whole deal is that they let this team come in 115 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: and nearly gained four hundred yards. They ended up with 116 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: three ninety seven. All right, three ninety seven. This team 117 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: had not scored more than twenty points during their five 118 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: game losing streak, and they scored twenty five. What did 119 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,559 Speaker 1: they have twenty two at halftime? Yeah, And so Micky, Micky, 120 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: they didn't have to go over if they needed to 121 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: go over four hundred yards, they could have easily gone 122 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: over four hundred yards. They shut the game down because 123 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: there was no threat. The only way they were gonna, 124 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: like the Cowboys in the game turn it over. The 125 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: Washington football team took pity on us. They were like, 126 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: this is not even fun anymore, beating up on these guys. 127 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: Let's they pulled out the white flag and they were 128 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: winning the ball game. If they wanted to take pity, 129 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 1: they could have not done a headshot to Yeah Andy, Yeah, 130 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,439 Speaker 1: I think I think they weren't taking pity on Dallas. 131 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: They were protecting themselves from their quarterback who's prone to 132 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,839 Speaker 1: turn the ball over. And so so you let they 133 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: get up twenty two to three on you at halftime, 134 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: and they're not going to take any chances at all 135 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: on the second half, especially with what the Cowboys offense 136 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 1: looks like right now. I mean, all right, you want 137 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: to talk to you you got your first mix shot John Bostick, 138 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: John Bostick, What do you think goes through the guy's 139 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: mind when he does that? Or there's nothing going through 140 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 1: his mind? I mean, there was no need. It wasn't 141 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: even a close call. And even if he wanted to 142 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: hit him on the ground, he didn't have to lead 143 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: with his head to hit his helmet. So hard. He 144 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:37,079 Speaker 1: knocked the helmet off. That was just inexcusable. And if 145 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 1: he doesn't get suspended for this, I know he won't 146 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: picked out of the game, but he shouldn't be. He 147 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: will not be suspended. Yeah, and I saw that too, 148 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: and I want to ask why not. Maybe they floated 149 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: it out there to see what kind of reaction there 150 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: might be, and maybe they when the when the decision 151 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: comes down, maybe some public sentiment might factor into their 152 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: ultimate decision on it. Well, this should be like hockey. 153 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,239 Speaker 1: If my guy gets knocked out so many games, then 154 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: you get knocked out so many games for your offense. 155 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 1: So if this is baseball, then we're coming at them, 156 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 1: right next, next man up, we're gonna throw yeah at 157 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: your noggin, right. Yeah. Absolutely, what I saw was, you know, 158 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: I saw not just the personnel on the field. At 159 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 1: this point. Our defensive coaches are at their wits end. 160 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: They have no idea what to do, how to do it, 161 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: who to play, who to punish, who to promote. You know, 162 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: right now they're just throwing people in and nothing is working. 163 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 1: And when you're at that position. You talked about the 164 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh defense, they've always had that pride about them. It 165 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,719 Speaker 1: goes once again to our culture here. You know, we 166 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: talked about this, I think a couple of weeks ago. 167 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,559 Speaker 1: The Cowboys have never really you know, put the emphasis 168 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: on getting in off a defensive squad. We were always 169 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:15,359 Speaker 1: known here with the Cowboys for well, aside from Doomsday, 170 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: we have always been known for having that offensive squad 171 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: that that making every game where we can come back, 172 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: we can be those cardiac kids because offensively, we've always 173 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: had the twols to do that, and we've always had 174 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: those since the nineties. We've had those players, Charles Haley, 175 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: Dion Sanders, Woodson, you know, Kevin Smith, good players, but 176 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: we weren't really known ever as a defensive force with 177 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: the Cowboys since the seventies. Really, that's just what we 178 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: were never known for that. I think that that has 179 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: to change here nowadays because there are times when offensively 180 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: you can score all the points you one. We saw 181 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: that last year and we saw that the beginning of 182 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: this ship. But offense sales the tickets and defense wins 183 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: the games. We always talk about that defense right now 184 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: needs to be showed up. From a personnel standpoint, I 185 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 1: know they've been trying to get it in there. I 186 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: know they've been signing to Everson Griffins, They've come in 187 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: with all these guys. We feel good about them. But 188 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: as a team, I don't think anyone that's trying to 189 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: have any accountability defensively, I don't. I don't see anyone 190 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: stepping up and saying, man, I gotta do better. You know, 191 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: I'm horrible, And almost everyone on the front seven can 192 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: practically say that, but no one is really saying it 193 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: and then holding their other teammates responsible as well. See, 194 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: and okay, I get that, but I don't get the mistakes. 195 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: And that's the part that is inexcusable. You know, you 196 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: can get beat physically. Maybe I don't have the physical 197 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 1: talent to do this, but the mistakes they're making. Think 198 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: about it, and I believe it was a it was 199 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: a third down, it was a third down play. Maybe. 200 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: Let me see, I got my notes here, I got 201 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 1: all my shots here, you go get it together me. 202 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 1: So it's second and five at the Dallas forty five. 203 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: They blew part of the game we're talking about here. 204 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: This is this is early, this is uh maybe late 205 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: first when it was still a game. Okay, it was 206 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: still a game. Second in five, the Dallas forty five. 207 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: They blitz the Xavier Woods, all right, nobody covers the 208 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 1: tight end. He gets a free release downfield for a 209 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: twenty six yard game. Some guy named Thomas seriously, and 210 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: he had a ball game yesterday, yes, and think about it. 211 00:13:55,800 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 1: There was no guys and they end up they end 212 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: up in single safety high and the closest guy to 213 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: covering the tight end was Donovan Wilson, who had to 214 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: come from twenty yards deep in the middle of the 215 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 1: field to go to the sideline to cover the tight 216 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:17,199 Speaker 1: end that's not covered. Now, how does that happen? And 217 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: then on the fifty two yard touchdown paston mclauren, they 218 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: hadn't completed a past longer than twenty nine yards all 219 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: season long. That was his longest completion for Kyle Allen, 220 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: twenty nine yards and he hits a fifty two yard 221 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: because the rookie defensive back is looking inside. I don't 222 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: know if he's looking at the corner, if he thought 223 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: the pass was going to go underneath, and and he 224 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: kind of stutters himself. The guy didn't do nothing but 225 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: run a nine route straight down the field. No stutter move, 226 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: no no fancy didn't go. He just ran straight and 227 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: he gets blown by for a fifty two yard touchdown pass. 228 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: How do you make that mistake and see and that's 229 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: the same thing they did last was that last week? 230 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: Yutely same thing when they had the three guys and 231 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: were looking like exact same route and you didn't see 232 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: And you didn't see a lot of Darryl Worley on 233 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: the field this game either. And I got another guy 234 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: that doesn't need to be on the field anymore is 235 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: don Terry Poe. That's three games in a row he 236 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: zeroed out. He played forty eight snaps, I mean forty 237 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: eight percent of the office of their snaps, the defensive snaps, 238 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: and he zeroed out nothing three games in a row. 239 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: His name is not even on the defensive tackle chart 240 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: on the play by play three weeks in a row. 241 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if they think we just got to 242 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: put him out there, but he's not doing anything I 243 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: could zero out. So they're just the mistakes they're making. 244 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: It just this is seven games in How do you 245 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: keep making those mistakes? Now? I understand the rookie right 246 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: when you you're gonna start a rookie corner and no 247 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: offense to Everson. But you're gonna have to live with 248 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: some growing planes. I understand it. But still that that's 249 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: just very simple. And that's why after the draft I 250 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: was really concerned when I heard all these people talking about, Oh, 251 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: they've drafted these two corners, Trayvon Digs and Reggie Robinson. 252 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: These guys are gonna step right in and be day 253 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: one starters. Better just hold the boat on that one 254 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: a little bit, because the problem that the only problem 255 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: you have with that Spags is we assume that he 256 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: would come in and make plays, or either one would 257 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: come in and make plays, because we had no one 258 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: back there really making any But see, but that's nothing 259 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: right because chitebe Eousier is a good corner and they 260 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: miss him really badly right now. They need him on 261 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: the field, and I know at times he gets beat 262 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 1: on those those fifty fifty balls, but at least he's 263 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: covering somebody. He's not letting somebody run ten yards past 264 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: him before he decides to turn and run. I think, 265 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: I think what you have with your secondary is they 266 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,439 Speaker 1: wanted to have they wanted to show improvement. Yes, we 267 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 1: had Jones, we had we had we have a Woozier. 268 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: But what we were looking at was trying to get 269 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 1: some players in here that could make plays on the 270 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 1: ball because we still needed a secondary with that type 271 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: of mentality to help the offense when they were stuttering. 272 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: I mean, this is really where it came from, Spags. 273 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: Our offense was blowing people away just like we did 274 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: earlier this year in regards to numbers and production, but 275 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 1: we had to go eighty yards the whole time. You know, 276 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: that's my narrative. I'm the guy that has been on 277 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: board with this the entire time, So I know where 278 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,880 Speaker 1: your frustration is coming from. But where do you go 279 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: when you have a defensive backfield that is stagnant in 280 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 1: their production? That's they were trying to improve that. So 281 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: here we go, we bring in guys that make it 282 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: plays on the ball. Yeah, but the knowledge here, well 283 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 1: you brought to he right, I mean the Robinson and 284 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: then yeah. Yeah, so you assume that this is going 285 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: to be part of your new wave of players that 286 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 1: are going to be thinking turnover as well as still 287 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: being solid players patched as far as recognition and coming 288 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: up making tackles and things of that nature. Which does 289 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: a lot of that, but you come here, you have 290 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: no pressure. You have the pressure of being a Dallas cowboy. 291 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: And I'm not giving these guys excuses at all. Trust me. 292 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: What this is the play that he had yesterday? I mean, 293 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 1: you can't, you can't. You can't watch worldly do the 294 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 1: same thing last week. You do it coming up this 295 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: week against you know, some of the better, the best 296 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 1: wide receiver on their squad. Remember I picked up digs 297 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 1: would pick to click because I knew they were gonna 298 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: come at him. I thought he knew that they were 299 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: gonna come at him. But he stands there with his 300 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 1: feet and submit. So all you're looking at right now 301 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: is a continuation of what went on last year. Well, 302 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: actually it might be a little worse now because as 303 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: you're giving up the big plays, you're not making any 304 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: of your own. Defensively, This isn't even close to last 305 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: year they finished. They finished ninth overall in yards. Right now, 306 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: right now, they are thirteen yards a game from the 307 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: pace of being the worst defense in franchise history. Giving 308 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: up the most yards after one year was at sixty 309 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: or eighty nine, No, it was twenty thirteen. Twenty thirteen 310 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 1: really gave up the most yards in franchise history. Wow, 311 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: is that Rob Ryan? It would us and that was 312 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,119 Speaker 1: it was? It was the year after Rob Ryan. But 313 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: I think second or third was Rob Ryan in twelve, 314 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: I think or eleven, so so Mickey. They were making 315 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: the transition from a three four to a four three 316 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: right back then Tamaranelli to a fourth three. Yeah, from 317 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: a three four to a four three. There you go, right, Well, 318 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 1: now they're in a four three right exactly. But they're 319 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 1: they're having they're having difficulties trying to figure out what 320 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: defense they need to be in. What As the season starts, 321 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: someone someone texts me Rob's number. I'm gonna call all 322 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: right when we come back here.

Soon defeated, I'll be 376 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,679 Speaker 1: more interested. Yeah, that's right now, Loo bringing me in 377 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: after they lost, they'll really be pissed off. And they 378 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,679 Speaker 1: came away with a victory yesterday against Tennessee and Steve 379 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 1: got Gaskowski missed a field goal that would have tied 380 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: the game and forced overtime. Yeah, all right, mickey. So 381 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: you were running through some key defensive lapses in the 382 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: game against Washington. You got us through fifteen to three 383 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: in the first half, which essentially ended the game. But 384 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: then the Washington put the game away on their next possession, 385 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 1: starting with seven thirteen to play in the second quarter. 386 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: It was a sixty yard ten play drive and there 387 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: were three critical third down conversions for Washington on that drive. 388 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: And by the way, in the game, Washington was nine 389 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: for fifteen on third down sixty percent conversion rate. The 390 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 1: first one before that game weren't they the worst in 391 00:24:55,520 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: the league, the offensively challenged Washington's by the way, that's right, 392 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: they were the worst third down team offensive team in 393 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: the league, correct before before yesterday. I've got I'll check 394 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: that out. Let's go with it. I agree. Yeah, that 395 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 1: sounds good, sounds good. All right. They're facing a third 396 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: and five at their own forty five yard line, and 397 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,679 Speaker 1: the Cowboys come with a blitz mickey, And what happened 398 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: on that play? They blitzed and they're gonna throw a 399 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 1: little short pass I think it was to the running back. Yep, 400 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: and Layton Vanderish gets called for holding. He didn't let 401 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: the running back out, So that's an easy conversion. Yeah, 402 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 1: so you just gave him the first down without them 403 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 1: executing anything. They had them in second and fifteen after 404 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 1: a delay of game. On the next set of downs, 405 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: Alan throws to McLaurin for six. They've got him third 406 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:01,479 Speaker 1: and nine at the fifty and they allow Alan to 407 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: run out for thirteen yards. Thirteen yards. They looked good 408 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: the pocket. Yeah, and he doesn't run much at all. 409 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 1: He looked good. He stepped, he was like a running back. 410 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: He saw the whole he hit it. He dipped to 411 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,880 Speaker 1: the outside people nipping at his heels, and little where 412 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: he learned how to do that. It you know where 413 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 1: he learned how to do that watching Kyler Murray in 414 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 1: practice at Texas A and M and then and then 415 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: it refreshed his memory watching the Cowboys against Kyler Murray 416 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 1: last Monday night. Oh my goodness, I said there was 417 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: a conversion that got one more conversions down. Yeah, but 418 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 1: then there's another third down conversion. They go two tight ends. 419 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: It's third and one at the fifteen, and they get 420 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: that guy named Thomas one on one with some guy 421 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 1: named Thomas Smith. Yeah, some guy named Thomas one on 422 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: one with Jalen Smith. And he, I mean, he's challenged, 423 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 1: he can't cover. I still think they've got him playing 424 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: out of position. Uh And I'm not sure what his 425 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: position is, but he's not the guy that's going to 426 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: run with those guys. That's the weak side linebacker. Uh 427 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: And and he ends up missing the tackle and it's 428 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: a touchdown. And by the way, Logan Thomas a former 429 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: college quarterback at Virginia Tech. Uh. In fact, he's so 430 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: he's their version of the belldozer. He's he's our he's 431 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: Washington's a belldozer, Blake Bell being a former college quarterback 432 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: who was, by the way, one play away from taking over. 433 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: That's what people were asking, who goes in if something 434 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 1: happens to de Nucci? And something could have could have 435 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: happened to de Nucci the way they were coming at him. 436 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: So when you when you go back to the vander 437 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:56,360 Speaker 1: As play, uh, that's one of those things where it 438 00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 1: wasn't for lack of knowledge or uh determination. I think 439 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: he was gonna blitz that play. And uh he first 440 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: on vander Esh on the hole. Yeah he was. Yeah, 441 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 1: he was bla blitz that hole. He was gonna blitz 442 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: that hole. The running back wasn't going to block him. 443 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 1: He was going to release. So that was kind of 444 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: a knee jerk bam bam play as far as his 445 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: reaction was concerned. And he writes bags Jalen smith Man, 446 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 1: you know, I've been trying to give him something. I've 447 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 1: been trying to give him, you know, a little time 448 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: to adjust to whatever's going on till Vanderesh gets back. 449 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: I mean, he is what he is. He's a decently 450 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: athletic player. He's got speed. It's all straight line. Uh, 451 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: let's just face it. He has no footwork, he has 452 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: no hips for playing man to man. I mean, you 453 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: have to have a certain mentality to play man to 454 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: man that whatever position you are, and he's just not 455 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: that guy. I mean, he's still a guy that we 456 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: could use defensively as long as we protect him well. 457 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 1: But when it comes to man to man defense, Jayles 458 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: Smith is a much better zone pass linebacker than he 459 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: will ever be on man to man. So that touchdown, 460 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: by the way, got us to Did that get us 461 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: the halftime twenty two three? Yeah? Well that was there 462 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: were still three minutes left and they had the big 463 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:34,479 Speaker 1: long drive and had ended up with the past just 464 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: a little bit behind Zeke for the interception, right, So 465 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: I had written down here since they were at twenty 466 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: two uh that I saw a note where the the 467 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: Washington's had scored thirty or more points only one time 468 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: in the last thirty five games, So I figured they 469 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,719 Speaker 1: were on their way to thirty five for sure at 470 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: twenty two three, especially especial considering the Cowboys the track record. 471 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: If Washington had gotten to thirty points in this game, 472 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: the Cowboys would have tied the all time record, which 473 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: Jacksonville did later in the day, giving up thirty or 474 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,959 Speaker 1: more points in six straight games, but Washington only got 475 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: twenty five. So yeah, they shut it down. Otherwise they 476 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: would have if they had to write. I wrote so 477 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: in the third quarter they didn't score, right, and I 478 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: was like, whoa, this is like a victory. They shut 479 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 1: him out in a quarter. Oh well, I saw some 480 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 1: unusual things yesterday. I don't know if it was just 481 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: you know, McCarthy being at his wits end, not knowing 482 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: what to do offensively. It almost looked as if Paula's 483 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: got a lot more playing time than I thought he 484 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: would get. I think he got it in the late 485 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: in the game when it was like, there's no sense 486 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: using up zeke, We're not going anywhere. Look, and here's 487 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: the thing that I thought they very smartly did on offense. 488 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: They finally gave concessions to the fact that that offensive 489 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: line is not capable of blocking anybody, especially one that 490 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: has five first round draft choices on it, including Chase Young. Right, 491 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: So they started off with two tight ends, they played 492 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: a lot of two tight end right. They ended up 493 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: with shorter drops, quicker throws. They adjusted to their deficiencies 494 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: and I said, okay, this is working well. On the 495 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: sack fumble that caused the safety, they had two tight 496 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: ends and Schultz missed. He missed his block, and then 497 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 1: Irving missed his block. And it's like you've setting everybody 498 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: up to do what you're supposed to do and then 499 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: you don't do it. And by the great God, Schultz 500 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: recovered the ball in the end zone. Better recovered. Yeah, 501 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 1: he slutely, he's got nothing else to do because his 502 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: man is now assaulting the quarterback. But however, however, let 503 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: me let me throw it in this because Schultz recovered 504 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: the ball in the end zone for a safety and 505 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys then had to free kick it back to Washington. 506 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: Instead of giving up seven points on that play, had 507 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: Washington recovered in the end zone, the Cowboys gave up 508 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 1: nine points. So I think when there is a fumble 509 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 1: in the end zone, just go ahead and let the 510 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: other let it go. Let it go, and then at 511 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: least you'll be getting the football back. Okay, well, it 512 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: shouldn't be automatic that you're going to give up nine 513 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: that it should not be automatic. That's the problem that 514 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 1: we're dealing with. That's the defense. You're dealing with that, 515 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 1: which which is what happened last week against Arizona when 516 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: Dalton threw the interception down at the Arizona twenty one 517 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: yard line, and it was like a knife through butter 518 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: twenty yard here, twenty two yards there. And they weren't 519 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: pass plays. They were run place seventy nine yards and 520 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 1: give up a you know, that was points off a turnover. 521 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: But spags, you you were right before Dalton got hurt, 522 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: you know, offense was still somewhat productive. Actually, we went 523 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 1: scoring position and I'm sure you're gonna go over that, 524 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: and then we threw the interception. So they ended up 525 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 1: And I've wrote about this ad NAUSM, but I just 526 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: want to make sure I didn't forget the total. They 527 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: ended up with a hundred and forty two yards of 528 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 1: total offense. I had to go back kind of seasoned 529 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 1: by season to two thousand and one to find fewer 530 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: total yards offense in a game. And it was the 531 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: season opener with Quincy Carter making his NFL debut at quarterback, 532 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: and they total one hundred and twenty seven yards against 533 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay in a ten to six loss. Ten to six, 534 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: they got beat with one hundred and twenty seven yards. 535 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: Quincy completed nine of nineteen passes for a grand total 536 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 1: of thirty four yards. And I still remember, I still 537 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: remember writing my lead to my column that day was 538 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: had the Cowboys started any other quarterback, they would have 539 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: won the game. But now they were gonna go with 540 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: the rookie because he could run, and he could throw 541 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 1: and needn't know what, he couldn't take a snap from center. Well, 542 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:57,040 Speaker 1: at least he had a good defense to help him out. Yeah, 543 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: just a bit. I mean, if if he was, if 544 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:05,800 Speaker 1: he was with this defense, we're looking at a disaster. Which, 545 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: by the way, I'll i'll give Channel eleven credit for 546 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 1: having Quincy on their special last night. I said, oh, 547 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 1: this is kind of poetic justice. He was on your 548 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,720 Speaker 1: living room what do you guys call that? Living living 549 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 1: room sports? And by the way, Quincy, uh it was 550 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,839 Speaker 1: about a nine minute interview with Quincy Carter that Keith 551 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,479 Speaker 1: Russell did. And by the way, this is great news 552 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: about Quincy. He's doing well. Uh uh. He went in fact, 553 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 1: Thomas Hollywood Henderson got him down to Austin. There's a 554 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: rehab place called BRC Recovery that he went through that 555 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: and Quincy is now over a year sober, and so 556 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,880 Speaker 1: that's a very very good news. And of course we 557 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:53,720 Speaker 1: we wish Quincy uh the very best. Now he's forty 558 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 1: two years old now and he's got his own quarterback 559 00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 1: school he uh mentors young quarterbacks. So best to Quincy Carter. 560 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 1: All right, we continue with more mix shots in just 561 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:07,879 Speaker 1: a moment.

Doctor ask Everson, what were your thoughts there? 606 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:06,800 Speaker 1: There's a big a lot of uh. Well, the question 607 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: was asking McCarthy and players after the game about Cowboy 608 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: players not rushing to the defense of Dalton after that 609 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,280 Speaker 1: on the field. What were your thoughts on that? Yeah, 610 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 1: I mean I wouldn't be one of those players. That's 611 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 1: just not my style. You know, I'm a dB cornerback 612 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 1: at that. But no, you want. You want your old lineman. 613 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: Those are the guys that you want to step up. 614 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 1: And even if it's questionable, you want your lineman to 615 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 1: be there to enforce, you know, any type of payback, 616 00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: you know, or at least some type of show of unity. 617 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:50,800 Speaker 1: He laid down there. I didn't even see any of 618 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 1: his lineman come to take a look at him to 619 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: see how he was doing. No, two guys ran up 620 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: there to take a look. They did run up there. 621 00:39:57,560 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 1: But see if this is this tells you how much 622 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 1: experience they have on the offensive line. They don't know better. 623 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,280 Speaker 1: That's late enough to say, oh, I better go rescue 624 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: my quarterback and at least get in this guy's face 625 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: right there. All that word about how I mean he 626 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 1: wasn't moving. He was not moving, you know, it reminded 627 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 1: me of that they weren't. They weren't even alerted enough, 628 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 1: you know, to say, hey, he's not moving. I can't 629 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:32,760 Speaker 1: help him. But I'm gonna go send a message to 630 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 1: somebody over in that huddle. You know, I'm gonna go 631 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,800 Speaker 1: try to find fifty three. That's what I've seen happen before. 632 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: Once again, not me, let me make me clear about that. 633 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: But you knew that something. I always know someone's gonna 634 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 1: go looking for number fifty three or anyone that is 635 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:54,799 Speaker 1: wearing his the same jersey, and you're going to at 636 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 1: least go up and make your feelings heard and possibly 637 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 1: felt if you have to. Where Jim was like that, 638 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 1: I know we're in an emotional state here on the field, 639 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,319 Speaker 1: but their moments like that that can sometimes spur a 640 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 1: team to get their hands out of the bus. I mean, 641 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 1: even if it's for that that particular drive to even 642 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 1: finish that game. But that change in attitude, that was 643 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 1: kind of an opportunity for them to show that. But 644 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 1: what it did, it was just a reflection of the 645 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 1: kind of team we are right now in this array. 646 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 1: Tell them this array, where was George ching? You know? 647 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 1: But think about it, who who was gonna do it? 648 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 1: Like all the wide receivers they were downfield, the tight 649 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: ends downfield. I don't know who was at running back 650 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 1: at that time. And then you got a bunch of 651 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: young guys that I don't know if it went through 652 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 1: their mind, but had they gone and done something and 653 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 1: got thrown out and find that was their game check 654 00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 1: Because none of those guys are making any money. It 655 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,879 Speaker 1: doesn't matter how much experience you have, Spags. There are 656 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 1: certain players that just have that mentality. And I don't 657 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 1: care how young they are, I don't care how much 658 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: money they're making. Very immediate reaction is going to be 659 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: to go do something if he has it in him, 660 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:20,720 Speaker 1: no matter what age he is or what his income 661 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: level is, if he's got it in him already, he's 662 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: gonna go do something about it. We just don't have 663 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 1: that type of those guys. That wasn't those type of 664 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:31,319 Speaker 1: guys that group of guys. Tiny Badass would be one 665 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 1: to do it. I mean, that's why his name is Badass. 666 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:35,800 Speaker 1: I thought he'd be out there that they needed tyring 667 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 1: on the film for that one. Tyran would have escorted 668 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: that guy to the locker room. Really, And that's one 669 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 1: of those things where you you know, offensive linemen are 670 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 1: engaged with other defensive players. They may not see the 671 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,760 Speaker 1: hit when it happened, but once you see your quarterback 672 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 1: laying on the ground with his helmet off like that, 673 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:58,800 Speaker 1: then you can kind of deduce what happened on the play. 674 00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: And that's when you're bow up to somebody and you 675 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 1: know that's when your whole TiO moment comes in, that's 676 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 1: my quarterback, that's my quarterback. Land on the ground, and 677 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 1: you have to be emotional and at least how some 678 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:15,240 Speaker 1: type of reaction. All those guys are worried about who's 679 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 1: going to be calling the next play and make sure 680 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 1: they don't make a mistake when the next play comes up. 681 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 1: That's well, they were all in. They were all in 682 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: the end zone trying to prevent a damn safety. Mickey, 683 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:30,279 Speaker 1: do you have you gotten any reports? Mike mccarthield talk 684 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 1: at four o'clock today as his conference call day after 685 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 1: conference called, do you have any reports on Dalton? And 686 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,959 Speaker 1: I know he flew back with the team, and so 687 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,880 Speaker 1: his status going forward since he's in concussion protocol for 688 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,560 Speaker 1: this game against Philadelphia, will be one of the big 689 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 1: stories of this week. I guess yeah. And Stephen Jones 690 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 1: on his segment today radio segment said he's obviously in 691 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 1: the concussion protocol and he said we just have to 692 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:03,360 Speaker 1: wait and see how he progresses during the week. But gosh, 693 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,839 Speaker 1: you guys out the way his eyes looked when they 694 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: had him coming off the field, I think he's going 695 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 1: to be hard pressed to be ready to go. If 696 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 1: you consider and I know hits to the head are 697 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:21,760 Speaker 1: never the same or equal, but Zack Martin looked considerably 698 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,759 Speaker 1: better when he left the field last week and he 699 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 1: got kneed in the head in his helmet. Not like 700 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:32,240 Speaker 1: this one. This one to me looks significantly worse. So 701 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 1: if they have to go forward, I would imagine just 702 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 1: because he's been practicing, Ben Denucci's you're starting quarterback with 703 00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 1: Garrett Gilbert the backup. How much did Garrett Gilbert he 704 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:48,719 Speaker 1: was on the practice field last week? That was he 705 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,879 Speaker 1: through COVID protocol. By that, I think he was eligible 706 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 1: to be on the practice field last week. So since 707 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 1: I was the one advantage you have there with Gilbert 708 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:05,240 Speaker 1: he's playing, probably yeah, is the fact that he's older, 709 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:10,359 Speaker 1: more experienced player. And if you want to protect your 710 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,800 Speaker 1: young guy de Nucci, you know, boy, he could get 711 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 1: the other parts. Been in the offense ever since to 712 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 1: the start of training camp, and there he thought he 713 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 1: thought he was gonna be broken into as wells bad right. 714 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 1: You see how you see how quickly he got rid 715 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,879 Speaker 1: of that ball on the first snap? Oh my god, 716 00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:31,680 Speaker 1: oh the shot the little shovel hand to talk about potato, 717 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 1: talk about hock potato, Yeah, but he stood in there 718 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 1: and threw that completion down the field. That was amazing. 719 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,320 Speaker 1: And this is another thing, I mean, just small things 720 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,879 Speaker 1: that you just could have been worse, could have could 721 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,239 Speaker 1: have been nothing. Why would you call that type of 722 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 1: play to a quarterback in his first play in his 723 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 1: first NFL ball game, no warm ups, and you want 724 00:45:56,760 --> 00:46:02,280 Speaker 1: him to make that timely pitch to any day too slippery, 725 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 1: wet day, and yeah, I mean, you know, just ring 726 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 1: that back it'll also been disastrous. And then next thing, 727 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,480 Speaker 1: you know, okay, it's bad enough, I'm in here first 728 00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 1: and ten, then we're getting that butts kid, you want 729 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:18,160 Speaker 1: me to have a second and nineteen now and then 730 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 1: I gotta get us out of the second and nineteen. 731 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 1: First and ten is not enough. I gotta have a 732 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:24,880 Speaker 1: second and nineteen. So you don't want to put your 733 00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:29,239 Speaker 1: quarterback in these unnecessary situations. I just thought that was 734 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 1: for Keller More to call that. It's like you've never 735 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:35,399 Speaker 1: played quarterback before. Yeah right, all right, I'm gonna leave 736 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:37,680 Speaker 1: you with I'm gonna leave you with this one too. 737 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 1: So going into the game, the Redskins defense, they had 738 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: sixteen snap sacks. Eight of them came in the season 739 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 1: opener against the Eagles. So that means they only had 740 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 1: eight sacks over the next five games, right, and they 741 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:57,879 Speaker 1: end up with six against the Cowboys with I think 742 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:03,000 Speaker 1: it was eight quarterback hits. That's how bad the offensive 743 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 1: line was. Well, the good news for the Cowboys they 744 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 1: played line against the Philadelphia They've got a They're playing 745 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:16,800 Speaker 1: a Philadelphia team that has just about as many injuries 746 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 1: in their offensive line this week, so that makes us 747 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:25,560 Speaker 1: about anybod And just remembered, they're only a half game 748 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 1: out of first place. That's right. Yeah, if the Cowboys 749 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:35,240 Speaker 1: win back in first place for potential battle of first 750 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:39,640 Speaker 1: place teams next week when they unbeaten Pittsburgh Steelers come 751 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,480 Speaker 1: to town. My god, all right, we're over that. One. 752 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:45,320 Speaker 1: Twenty four hour roll is in effect. It's on the 753 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:50,919 Speaker 1: Philly now and more mix shots tomorrow. Song Go Cowboys, 754 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,240 Speaker 1: I still mean it, damn.
