Who would have seen that coming. 9 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 1: I don't know what's what's stronger, the hate from the 10 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: Cowboys fan base or the cowbell in our opening. I 11 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,520 Speaker 1: just don't know. But we have lots to talk about. 12 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: Was it a catch? We'll answer that is Mickey has 13 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: all the answers. Absolutely, Oh you do, Yeah, I always do. 14 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: At the beginning of the end. For the Patriots, well 15 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: answer that, Taylor, just right off the pants, the Patriots, 16 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: the Patriots, the Peterson play calls. Try saying that ten 17 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: times fast. There you go, And then what it means 18 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: for the NFC East, and we'll get into Mickey's column 19 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: about some of these heartbreak, heartbreak kids known as the 20 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, and of course Teo Hall of Famer Everson 21 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: Walls about fortunately not should have been, and then more 22 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: Dak pushing for Kellen Moore. We saved the Kellen Moore talk? 23 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,759 Speaker 1: Really for you? Rob? Oh good, I'm glad to be back. 24 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: Is this an hour show? We got three hours going today? 25 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: We got three hours? Oh it's been a while. Yeah. Yeah, 26 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: and Cheeto changed his number. I mean that's probably the 27 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: top of the hour here for me at least. But yes, 28 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: Eagles won the Super Bowl forty one thirty three, beating 29 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: the Patriots, denying Tom Brady his six Super Bowl What 30 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: are your thoughts? How are you digesting this on a 31 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: Tuesday at the end of the NFL football season, Crickets, 32 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: I think I picked the Eagles to win. You did, 33 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: except for before the playoffs began. I picked him to 34 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: get the Super Bowl, and then I changed my mind. 35 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: He gave him the out, he did, he did, he did? 36 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 1: Oh no, but no, we had to pick who was 37 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: going to win the game. Oh I see, Yeah, Mickey's 38 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: right though. Prior to the playoffs, for sure, it did. 39 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: Nobody trusted Nobody trusted Nick Foles, you kidd me. I'm 40 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: not sure I trusted him going into the Super Bowl. No. 41 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: But to me, you know what was surprising about the 42 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: Super Bowl was the Eagles defense or lack of I 43 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: thought that was going to be if they if they 44 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: were going to win this game, it was going to 45 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: be because of their defense. Yeah. You know that Tom 46 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: Brady they had zero punts. Yeah, he never had to 47 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: punt during that's incredible. Five hundred and five yards Passing 48 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: offense wins championships, as they say, right, yea, can you 49 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: believe that? I don't forget it. Yeah, scoring points points, 50 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: defense got him. There was the first sack at the 51 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 1: end of the game. Was that really the first sack? Yeah? 52 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: It felt like the only only day they made against 53 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,239 Speaker 1: Tom Brady? Yeah, pretty much. But then Nick Foles is 54 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: just so tricky Nick. He's just great tricky. Nick's a 55 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: pretty good one. Yeah he was. He was incredible. And 56 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: I mean we're gonna get into Doug Peterson and what 57 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: he did his coaching job. I mean, the first thing 58 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: I thought of was Dak friendly is the new term 59 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 1: around here? How are we going to make this offense 60 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: Dak friendly? And the Eagles were about as Foles friendly 61 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 1: as you could imagine in that game. They blocked tremendously 62 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: for him. Who's the left tackle that replaced Bye ty By? 63 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: Bye Tye did an excellent job. They've got two studs 64 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: at running back, They've got receivers laying out all over 65 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: the place to make catches for him. A good group 66 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: of tight ends too. Yeah, I mean, Foles was really 67 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: the play calling was excellent. You know, they did a 68 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: lot of things to help him, and it really, to me, 69 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: it started in that divisional round against Atlanta when he 70 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: was struggling and they went to those RPOs and he 71 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: kind of got into a rhythm and he kind of 72 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: took off from there. I mean, they did everything around 73 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: him to help make him successful. And I think that 74 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: when you look try to apply that to what the 75 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: Cowboys need to do, it's They're a good template for it. 76 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: They really are. Corey Clement, did anyone see him having 77 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: a day? Did anyone predict I guarantee any NFL pregame 78 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: show they were not saying Corey Clement is today's guy. 79 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: I guarantee you that. Nice to have a toy at 80 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: running back, Huh yeah, undrafted rookie out of Wisconsin. Well, 81 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: they you know what, to be honest with you, you 82 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: talked about catch or no catch. That looked like a 83 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 1: no catch to me. I agree, you know, yeah, I 84 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,919 Speaker 1: thought versus was a catch. Yeah. Yeah, that one the 85 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: ground though, well it did. Yeah, see that's what I'm saying. 86 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: But you know, with Clement though, they've they've used three 87 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: running backs all year. I mean they've they've used running backs. 88 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: That's that's that's kind of the way they play. So 89 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean, but you look at what Blunt 90 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 1: and a Gia did ninety and fifty seven yards respectively 91 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: as well. You could say all their backs played well. Now, 92 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: that's and that's kind of what they you know, in 93 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: I was talking about it, the Nick Foles friendly offense. 94 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,799 Speaker 1: You get a ninety yard rush or fifty seven yard rusher, 95 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 1: you get another running back that has one hundred yards 96 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,039 Speaker 1: and receptions oh my gosh, Alan Jeffrey just you know, 97 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: plastic man stretching out to make the sucazing catches. They 98 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: laid it all out there for him, yeah did. Yeah. 99 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: And special teams also, I mean they missed four points 100 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: in the first half from a missfield goal, the weird 101 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: hole thing that happened, and then the missed extra point. 102 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: Would you just rarely see from Stephen Gotskowski. So that's 103 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: that just shows you though the Super Bowl and you know, 104 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: maybe the pressure, you know, the pressure gets to these 105 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: players and especially the kickers, you know. And they were 106 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: complaining about that logo. Yeah, that it will logo on. 107 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: They did some work on it before the game. Well 108 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: they forgot the hash marks. Yeah, is that what it was? Yeah, 109 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: forgot to put it in the middle of it. We 110 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: got to put the hash marks down over the logo. 111 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 1: We need you back at the super Bowl, Mick to go. 112 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: I should have been there, George Tomin there now, guys, 113 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: if you didn't know it was cold last week, if 114 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: you didn't see anything, it was cold, But that did 115 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: not stop the game. The game went on. Of those tweets, 116 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, or people take a screenshot at the 117 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: temperature on their act, it was essentially a humble brag 118 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: because it was Hey, I'm at the super Bowl. Look 119 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 1: how cold it is because my iPhone reads the temp 120 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,559 Speaker 1: I'm here, right. That's basically what they saw. Much different 121 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: than the last time they had the Super Bowl there. Yeah, 122 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety one. You know, we saw a good game, right, Well, 123 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: you know, to me, I you know, you gotta give 124 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: you gotta give the Eagles a lot of credit, you 125 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: really really do. I mean, you know, it's it's it's 126 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: hard to sit here as you know, Cowboy fans and 127 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: want to say that, but you know, you look at 128 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: the way they were able to overcome a lot of injuries. 129 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: You know, that's something we talk about depth, We talk 130 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 1: about issues with their you know, with hey, you know 131 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: you have a left tackle now that you know, you think, hey, 132 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: we drafted this kid. He's you know, fifth round gal, 133 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: so we plug him in and he plays like a 134 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl type player. Yeah, that's a good question because 135 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: we were having a debate yesterday. Maybe you were part 136 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: of this. We were talking about, you know, the one 137 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: through twenty two for the Cowboys and the Eagles fairly similar, 138 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: but then it seems like twenty three through fifty three 139 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: are vastly different. Is that true or what would you 140 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: think on that statement? Well, they're obviously their backup offensive 141 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: tackle was much better than whatever the Cowboys and Cowboys 142 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: they had absolutely or a backup offensive tackle who absolutely 143 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: ruined the offense the second half of the season. A 144 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: linebacker Tyrann Smith wasn't there. Yeah, middle linebacker. They gave 145 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: up five hundred yards passing. Yeah, that's Tom Brady, the 146 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: hell of a job hundred yards. No one's thrown for 147 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: five hundred yards in a Super Bowl. I think where 148 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: it makes the difference. So they had a chance to 149 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: lose the Atlanta game and made a play on the 150 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: goal line. Yeah, that's where that's what the defense they 151 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: We've seen and we've seen Matt Ryan a couple of times, 152 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: you know, I know, light up the Cowboys. So I've 153 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: always respected what what the if Atlanta Falcons were able 154 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: to do on defense on offense. Excuse me, but you 155 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: got to give the reason why that the foul they 156 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: keep saying it, the Eagles are here is because of 157 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: their defense. I believe that, especially especially in the playoffs, 158 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: what they were able to do against Minnesota, what they 159 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: were able to do against you know, I think that 160 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: against Atlanta, I think that's why they're here, That's why 161 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: they mean But yeah, it was that. Now that Mickey's right, 162 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl one wasn't their finest hour. Jim Schwartz 163 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: would probably admit that, but I think the reason that 164 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: they got here at the end was because of that defense. 165 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: You know good, how good was New England their defense, Like, 166 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: who's their best defensive play? Well, he was sitting on 167 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,959 Speaker 1: the sidelines, Malcolm Butler. Yeah yeah, yeah, Well he should 168 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: have behaved himself all week. Oh sure, and that's yeah, 169 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: but he's their best defensive player, he's Yeah. I mean 170 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: the thing that I mean that that that's not a 171 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: great defensive team though, Mickey, that it really isn't. Well 172 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: there wasn't one Pro Bowler on it overall, though, Well, hook, 173 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: give me their guy. Who's their guy that was going 174 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: to turn the game around defensively? And those tackle Yeah, yeah, okay, 175 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: it's pretty good. Yeah, but I mean it's yeah, it's 176 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: what's your point? My point is New England's pretty darn 177 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: good offensively, right, Oh no, absolutely defensively. Yeah. Remember when 178 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: we had the argument about they got to play six 179 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: games this year against Miami, Buffalo and and and the Jets, 180 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: juts looked decent. Buffalo was Somebody correct me if I'm 181 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: wrong out there, But I think that this in nineteen 182 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: games this year, that the Eagles had not given up 183 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: a point in the last two minutes of a game. Wow, Wow, 184 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: that's says something about their defense. Yeah, I guess I'd 185 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 1: be right. If you look at the Rams game too 186 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: New England and had to patch things together. To your point, Mick, 187 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 1: the first month of the season, I think they were 188 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: given up thirty a game. Yeah, they were bad, they 189 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 1: were really. They did a better job as they went on. 190 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 1: I don't Yeah, you're right, I don't know if they 191 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,439 Speaker 1: were overly got their defensive coordinator, head coaching. Yeah, I 192 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: mean they did a good enough job. Feels good about that. 193 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,719 Speaker 1: What's that you think Detroit feels good about that? It's 194 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: kind of interesting her interesting her. Yeah, they're gonna keep 195 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: that offensive staff together up there. It sounds like though, 196 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: which they like. But to your point, Tay about talking 197 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: about depth, I think one difference that you can draw 198 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: from Philly and Dallas, and this is just a fact. 199 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: I mean we've talked about some of the bargain type 200 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: free agents the Cowboys sign they didn't pan out, and 201 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: the Eagles signed some guys in the off season that 202 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: really panned out for them and even in the season. Ji, Yeah, 203 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: well that's a trade they made. That's the other thing too. 204 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: They got aggressive. They made some trades to add some people. 205 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 1: Jgi eh Journe again was one, right, But you look 206 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 1: at some of the guys they signed for low low money. 207 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,239 Speaker 1: Alshan Jeffrey was one. I think he's got one years 208 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: since or Smith Smith Chris long Foles was full signed 209 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: in the off season, I can't remember. It was because 210 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson got the job. Yeah, I mean they kind 211 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 1: of had the Midas touch this past offseason. Everything they 212 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: did seem to work, and you got to give them 213 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: credit for it. They just they set up their team 214 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: the right way they were, They were equipped to handle 215 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: injuries and they did a great job. Where it's funny 216 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 1: because then you look on the other side with the 217 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: Giants and you think, oh, they did the same thing 218 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: and they were three and thirteen. It might have been 219 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 1: because they were just dancing at practice. We're not sure. 220 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: We're not sure. Just cute, I got you, didn't I 221 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: make cute was the best ad of the Super Bowl, 222 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,599 Speaker 1: without a doubt. That's what they said, except it was 223 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: for the NFL, So it seems the little hijinks. That's true. 224 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: That's true. But Brian pointed out too, I think on Twitter. 225 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: I mean Doug Peterson and the Eagles they went seven 226 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: and nine the year before. That's kind of the way 227 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: the NFL works. Now the question is can they turn 228 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: around and doesn't build some type of dynasty. Does the 229 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: schedule matter? No, who, it doesn't matter, not at all. 230 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: I don't know the Eagles who they have to play 231 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: next year in first place? Oh, they got a lot 232 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 1: of them. Every just everybody's finished first. They get to 233 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: get so they get the Rams, Yeah, they get who else? 234 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: Panthers who finished Minnesota one? Yeah? Yeah, So I mean 235 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: it's to me, it is it's going to be. That's 236 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: the challenge. That's the challenge every year. Remember when the 237 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys had a little quarterback controversy between Tony and Romo 238 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: and Dak it was it was pretty small. It wasn't 239 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: the storyline of most of the season. Remember that, No, 240 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: I don't. Okay, imagine if you're the Eagles right now 241 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: and you have a quarterback controversy of who is going 242 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: to be your quarterback Carson Wentz who was going to 243 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: likely be an MVP finalist if not the MVP, and 244 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: then Nick Foles just carries you through the rest of 245 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: the season, get you to the playoffs, get you to 246 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. When's the first super Bowl? Something Donovan 247 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: McNabb couldn't even do. And some of the greats that 248 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: have played Philadelphia. Build him a statue, right, he's a 249 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: he's a street for a life. Yeah, so oh fictional character. 250 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: Yeah if onto Nick too? So are they going to 251 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: trade them? This could be very much we move on situation. 252 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: We've seen it before. The Ravens did it with Trent Dilfer. 253 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: You know, he wins a super Bowl and they move on. 254 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: You know, drafted Joe Flacco what though, and that's yeah, 255 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: that's kind of where you know, clearly it's Carson Wentz 256 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: his team. But you know, do you protect yourself? I 257 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 1: think the money for both of them is only like 258 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: around seven million dollars, So no reason to move on 259 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: if you don't want to, Why not protect yourself another year? Yeah, 260 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: but if you if you want to strike while the 261 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: iron's hot, you know that maybe the you know, this 262 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 1: is the way the Eagles get back and get you 263 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: get a pick or two. I don't know if anybody 264 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: will ness they might trade. There's enough quarterbacks in this draft. 265 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: If you're kind of a needy team, you know, would 266 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: you take Nick Foles or would you take Kirk Cousins 267 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: If you're a quarterback. If you're a quarterback, if you're 268 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: a team needing a quarterback, cost is going to be 269 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: a hell of a lot different. Right, Bowles has got 270 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: one year left on his deal, or draft a guy. Yeah, 271 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: Bowles has got one year left on his deal for 272 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: like eight million cap hit, So not a lot of money. 273 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: Who are the biggest teams that you can think of 274 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: right now that really desperately need a solid quarterback? With 275 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: the Jets, all those teams that are Rice Petty Okay, 276 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: Well that's a team of collection of yeah, and that's 277 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 1: the guy. I mean, that's there's a team. You know, 278 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: Christian hackenburghs at that team too. I mean they've they've 279 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: they've tried to collect they've tried to collect quarterbacks. Now, 280 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: how about the Giants at two? Arizona is a team 281 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: at fifteen? Or what about a team that some view 282 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: is one quarterback away from winning a Super Bowl? Jacksonville? 283 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: See if it depends on if you believe in Bordles 284 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: or not? About the Dallas Cowboys, Vikings Vikings or one two? 285 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: That's another feel strong with Cooper Rush. You're talking about 286 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: a backup we're looking at starting Yeah, I was, if 287 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: I if I was Cousins really looking at that but 288 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: when you said one quarterback away, if I was going 289 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: to cut, if I was Cousins, I would look hard 290 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: at Jacksonville or Minnesota. I really would. I'd look especially 291 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: hard at Jacksonville. Good defense, running game, except they're good 292 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: A friend Chaise who the Redskins? Yeah, and then trade 293 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: him at trade they're going to protect the brute rights 294 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: and trade Snyder. There's absolutely brutal. I can't get away 295 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: for thirty four million dollars? Is that? What with cl for? Initially, 296 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: it's like, what's an off season if I don't franchise 297 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: Tag Kirk Cousins. What if somebody doesn't trade for him, 298 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 1: somebody's gonna well, down there just pulled the They'll just 299 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: pull the plug on it. Well, yeah, and then Nanny's 300 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: back to where he is. I don't think that any 301 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: agent looks like it's franchise Tag day Kirk Cousins. Where 302 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: you're at. I just don't know. Actually it's I don't 303 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: know the exact date. I was just making it up. 304 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: You have to do it by I think February twenty eight. 305 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: I think that's the that's we'll be at the combine, 306 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: because the combine where there's that Tuesday. So really the 307 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 1: combine starts that Wednesday. I think lanchise tags, transition tags, 308 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: all every other tag has to be done. It's usually 309 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: a week or two before the start of free agency, 310 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: which is March fourteenth. M Well, you know, one one 311 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: positive spin because I know Cowboys fans and and most 312 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 1: of the NFC East fans are quite upset that the 313 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: Eagles got their first Super Bowl when and of course 314 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: we saw what happened to the city of Philadelphia. Tragic, 315 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: but it just shows you that Tom Brady's Crypto Nite 316 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: is truly the NFC East. Yeah, it's a positive spin 317 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: for you guys. No, I'll tell you that's again. You 318 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: gotta give the Eagles scry. I'm looking at their roster 319 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: right now. They don't have a lot of free agents. 320 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: If you look at their team, you know, and usually 321 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: sometimes when you win a Super Bowl, you have to 322 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: make some really really hard decisions on guys that are 323 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: you know, and I look at it's blunt Ellabe who's 324 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: a starter, Bradham the outside linebacker. I mean, they've got 325 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: some backup guys, some depth things that they're going to 326 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: have to look at. But it's not like they're major starters. 327 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 1: I mean Vinny Curry, Jernegain Cox, Graham. I mean their 328 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: defensive line is all together. You know, Derek Barnett's a 329 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: guy that they drafted. I mean, he's a guy that 330 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 1: made the play the other day in the game, him 331 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: and him and Graham. So it's a giant not in 332 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: the last year of his contract. No, it's a la 333 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: Garrett blund Is though trade's looking pretty good. Yeah, and 334 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: then Trey Burton is another one who you know he 335 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,199 Speaker 1: threw the past, but that they have a collection of 336 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: tight ends there too with Burton, Sullick and Burton. I 337 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: mean there's the other too. Brian is there not Winz 338 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 1: is the second pick in the draft, but they're not 339 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: paying him no. One hundred and fifty million bucks. They're 340 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: paying their backup quarterback a lot of money, right. Yeah. 341 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 1: So it's kind of that Seattle thing when they were 342 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: competing for championships with Russell Wilson on a rookie contract. Right. 343 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 1: It gives you some flexibility with the Cowboys have that 344 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: right now too. That's the challenge is how do you 345 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 1: maximize this window before you've got to make a decision though, 346 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 1: how much do we pay Dak Prescott, you know, so 347 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: for all, just give him Tony Romo's eight million dead money. Yeah, 348 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I was just saying, you know, we look 349 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: at the Cowboys, you know, and it's this year. This 350 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: year is important for a lot of different reasons because 351 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,640 Speaker 1: of again, you know, you know, I don't think it's 352 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: just because of what Philadelphia did. I think it's important 353 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: because you know, there's expectations that you need to do this, 354 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 1: you know, the roster, you need to do this. It's 355 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: important for Dak Prescott. You know, we had this discussion 356 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: yesterday in the Draft show. If this was two thousand 357 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,479 Speaker 1: and nineteen, and say a quarterback was sitting there at 358 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,479 Speaker 1: nineteen when you picked, would you take a quarterback if 359 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: you knew what Dak Prescott had had a similar year 360 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: or two to two thou and seventeen, Because a year 361 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: from now what he'll be entering the final year, they're 362 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,959 Speaker 1: gonna have to make a decision on him, you know. 363 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: And and there's this is there's a lot writing on 364 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: this season for a lot of people here at the 365 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, a lot. Would it have been any different? Yeah, 366 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: I think so if Philadelphia hadn't won it's the same thing. No, 367 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: but I think I think no, and I agree with 368 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: That's what I said. Yeah, but I feel like though 369 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: that overall, though you look at the coaching staff, you 370 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: look at players, there's a lot of things on the 371 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: line here for this, for this franchise going forward. I 372 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: agree with you, Mick. Although when you watch a team 373 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 1: in your division hoist the trophy, I think it creates 374 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 1: a little extra urgency for you. I mean, you don't 375 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: you know they were you know they were a good team, 376 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: but now you know they're the best team in the NFC. Yeah. 377 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: And we said, you think about the about the Giants 378 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: after two thousand and seven and what was the next year, 379 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:16,120 Speaker 1: two thousand twelve, And I said that you that they 380 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: know that you have to find a way to you know, 381 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: be consistent. I agree with you, but it's still staring 382 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: you in the face. He just said, their team's not 383 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,399 Speaker 1: going anywhere. No, it's going to be a challenge to 384 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 1: beat that team next year. Yeah, it is, I understand, 385 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 1: especially with their quarterback. We had the same We had 386 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: the same reaction when the Giants won the Super Bowl. 387 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 1: I think I think it was more I think it 388 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: was more of a I think the people respect the Giants. 389 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: I don't think they were fans respect the Eagles. I 390 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: think that's the difference right now. Yeah, but the but 391 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: the but the narrative now is, oh, the Cowboys are 392 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 1: in trouble because the Eagles won the Super Bowl. Well 393 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: there's well, they were still in trouble. No, even if 394 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 1: the Eagles I didn't won. I'm just saying that it 395 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,399 Speaker 1: doesn't change anything. I'm just saying organizationally that it's an 396 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: important year for a lot of people on the side. Absolutely, 397 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna take our first break, but when we come back, 398 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 1: we will have more to discuss.

Thank you, Robert. We are 444 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: back here in the SWBC Mortgage studio, getting ready to 445 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: discuss the offseason and what is next. What happens to 446 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys? You know you said something about how the 447 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: Eagles aren't very respected by NFL fans. I'm assuming you generalize, oh, 448 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: Cowboy fan Cowboys fans. Yeah, there's a special kind of 449 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: hate between there's a special kind of hate, more so 450 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: than Washington, I believe. But do Cowboys fans respect Doug Peterson? 451 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: That's my question to you guys. The guy I had 452 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: some some strong plays as far as being the little 453 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 1: gutsy doing things that we don't normally see in Super 454 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: Bowl games. I mean, we saw two quarterbacks go for throws. Yeah, 455 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: you don't see that too often. I think, Oh, I 456 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 1: think I think he had no question about going forward 457 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: on the one fourth and one on the goal line. 458 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I think, actually, I think Jason Garrett would 459 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: made that call. See why does everybody say he wouldn't, 460 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 1: Because he made those calls the year before when he 461 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: had Zeke to hand the ball. That's that's where exactly now, 462 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,479 Speaker 1: the fourth and one in the field of play with 463 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 1: timeouts at the end of the game, I think he 464 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 1: would have punted that one. And the reason and I 465 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: think this is where I think that this is where 466 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: I always like talk about coaches knowing the condition of 467 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 1: your team. He knew very well that if he punted 468 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:51,160 Speaker 1: the ball to Brady, he was not going to get 469 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: it back. They couldn't stop him. They couldn't stop him, 470 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: so his decision there, And this is where I think 471 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: that maybe Jason Garrett would have been different, that he 472 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 1: would have tried to lean on that defense. You know, 473 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 1: even though things, hey, we gotta get a stop, we 474 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: got to do this. I think that's where Garrett might 475 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: have been different. Right there. Doug Peterson pushed all the 476 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: chips in at that call because if it doesn't if 477 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: it doesn't work, then ball game. But he also knew 478 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 1: that if he punted it, he wasn't going to get 479 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 1: it back. That's where that's why I think it was different. 480 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 1: They also couldn't stop them offensively, so that's that factored 481 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: in the decision too. I mean they were doing everything 482 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 1: they wanted against the New England defense as well. Yeah, yeah, 483 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: Belichick did the same thing. His didn't work. So everybody 484 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,679 Speaker 1: forgets which one was that. Well, he went for it 485 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 1: on fourth down the one time, right, and they didn't. 486 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: They didn't get it tougher catch for Brady then uh well, 487 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: but but the play was the same, gamble, it was 488 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: the same. It just didn't work, didn't work, So we 489 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,919 Speaker 1: don't we forget that, Belichick basically, and didn't they go 490 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 1: for it on fourth down inside the ten yard line 491 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,360 Speaker 1: when the guy tried the leap. Yeah, and it didn't work. Yeah, 492 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: but you know, so when it works, you're brilliant. When 493 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 1: it doesn't work, you took the gambles. It's but it's 494 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: not just the gambles for me, it's it's the way 495 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: he really found ways to make Folds comfortable running that. Well, 496 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 1: that's a that's a great point, and that goes back to, 497 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: like I mentioned that divisional round. He struggled late in 498 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 1: the season, there's no question about it. But I just 499 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 1: watching that Falcons game. They made some end game changes 500 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: to kind of make him more comfortable, and I think 501 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 1: they were able to move the ball. Yeah, and it 502 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: gave me a point, gave him confidence. Well, they scored 503 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 1: thirty eighth the next week against me, they scored fifteen 504 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 1: against it. Like I said, I think they found a 505 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: rhythm in the middle of that game and they carried 506 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 1: it over to the next week. And um, so that's 507 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: you know, that's coaching. But I think one thing that 508 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 1: gets lost he is that I don't think this coach 509 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 1: it's people were forgetting what this coaching staff did for 510 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: Dak as a rookie. It was similar. I mean, they 511 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: found ways to maximize what Dak did well. Sure to 512 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,919 Speaker 1: wound up having the best season of any quarterback in 513 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: rookie history. Sure, NFL could they have done some different 514 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 1: things this year. That's the question. What could they've done 515 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: differently when guys went out to help him? And I 516 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:05,719 Speaker 1: think that's what they're searching for this office. I heard 517 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: an interview with a Frank Wright, the offensive coordinator for 518 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: the Eagles, and they were kind of discussing, Okay, you know, 519 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: what was your game plan going against this New England defense, 520 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: whether they showed up to play or not. You know, 521 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: this was prior to the game, and he said, Hey, 522 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: I know they're gonna go and double team al Sean, Jeffrey. 523 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: I know they're gonna double team Jgi like Garrett Blunt. 524 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 1: He said, that's what I'm going to use all my pieces. 525 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: Everybody better be able to show up and play on 526 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl game. And that's what we saw. You know, 527 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,640 Speaker 1: that's something that I think sometimes people were questionable here 528 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 1: when they're watching Cowboys games and they see that. Of course, 529 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,199 Speaker 1: Beasley is double teamed, Witten is double teamed, but you 530 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: have Dez Bryant and you have other, you know, running 531 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: backs that you would expect to do well. And why 532 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,640 Speaker 1: have we not been able to see that? Sometimes? Did 533 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: you not see it in twenty sixteen? Was it I'm 534 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: talking about twenty seventeen. Well, I'm saying, though, I know 535 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: the different What was the different getting back to the 536 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: offensive line talk, Yeah, what was the difference? But I 537 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,919 Speaker 1: mean you saw it the first eight games of the season. 538 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 1: I think that's what really helped the Eagles win their 539 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,360 Speaker 1: game the other night too. Yeah, I know, I mean 540 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: they clearly were they protected him right. Yeah, there was 541 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,640 Speaker 1: a couple of moments where, you know, where Foles had 542 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 1: to make some hurried throws, but he was up to 543 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 1: the task. But not every throw was a hurried throw. Yeah, 544 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 1: I just you know, I know we talked about Chad's 545 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: green and a couple of the offensive line guys that 546 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: we had more expectations for that didn't pan out. But 547 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: if you had told me Chad's green going into the 548 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: season as long as he was healthy, what I had 549 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: seen in twenty sixteen wouldn't have shown me that he 550 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 1: would have had the outcome he did this year. Well, 551 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 1: I just I think it goes back to if the 552 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,479 Speaker 1: coaches had to do it over, I don't think they 553 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 1: would have put Chad's Green at left guard to start 554 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: the year. During training training, training camp. I think they 555 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 1: would have tried to develop him a little bit more 556 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 1: at tackle, let him get a bit more confident there, 557 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 1: you know. But that's you know, that's now water under 558 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 1: the bridge, and you learn, you say, okay, next time. 559 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,679 Speaker 1: If we think about moving guys around, we need to say, okay, 560 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: long term, is this the best thing for the football team. 561 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: I understand to get your best five guys on your field. 562 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: I get that. That's that's always a good thing to do. 563 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 1: But if you know, if Chaz Green was better playing tackle, 564 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 1: he should have been playing tackle the whole time as 565 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: a backup and not as a starting left guard. And 566 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: I think factoring into that is I'm not sure they 567 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: trusted Jonathan Cooper. Yeah, that's fair too, That's very true. 568 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: All right, Well, I've already hinted at it Rob your 569 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: column on Kellen Moore, it hints at you know, it 570 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: still is not official official. This is all speculation in reports, right, 571 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore the new quarterback quote coach, eaton lunch here 572 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: a lot. He's been eating lunch here. Dak kind of 573 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: sanctioned it. Yeah, yep. Dak at the Super Bowl was 574 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: asked about Kellen Moore being the new quarterback coach, and 575 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: he said that he pushed for it. He's very excited 576 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: for it. But Rob, you know, you wrote an interesting 577 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: column about the three reasons why this will work. And 578 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: I'm sure you got some people hate, especially for Mickey. 579 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 1: Mickey's tweets they loved it account. That's right, you've been 580 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,959 Speaker 1: hating that. You've been sending me hate emails. I haven't been. 581 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make it Twitter in two three weeks. I'm 582 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: gonna make a Twitter account for Mickey's beard. I love it. Yeah, 583 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: at Mickey's beard, love it. I love it. Yeah, I 584 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,479 Speaker 1: mean okay. My third point out of the three, I 585 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: think was probably the most significant, and we've touched on 586 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: this during the show in recent weeks. I don't think 587 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore is the soul sounding board coach guy to 588 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: lean on and the coaching staff for Dak. Prescott Scott 589 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: Lanahan has his fingerprints all over what DAK does on 590 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: a daily basis. His development, the game planning part. I 591 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: think Kellen's a piece of that. And it was interesting 592 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: Toy you mentioned what Dak said on the News Scrug 593 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: Show during Super Bowl Week. He said he pushed for 594 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: Kellen to be hired in that role, and I think 595 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: that says a lot about what maybe we don't see 596 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: behind the scenes of what Kellen can add in terms 597 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: of what he sees on the field, his knowledge of 598 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: the game. He's definitely experienced. I mean, there's no question 599 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 1: about that. But I think they obviously see something in 600 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: him from and maybe it goes back a couple of 601 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: years from when he was injured and he kind of 602 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: was in a quasi coaching role then. Anyway, that was 603 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: kind of maybe an interview of sorts for him back then. 604 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: So I think, you know, if he's got the quarterbacks blessing, 605 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 1: I think that's something to pay attention to and say, Okay, 606 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: maybe maybe there's something to this guy. Could they have 607 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: hired someone with more experience, Sure they could have, but 608 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: they also could have kept Wade Wilson who's been around 609 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: for twenty five years, and they didn't do it right. 610 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: So you know, we'll just see how it shakes out. 611 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: But I don't think Helen is the is you look 612 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: at him and say, oh, he's responsible for Dak's development. Now, 613 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: I think Scott Lanahan is, I think ultimately, and Jason 614 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 1: Garrett who's a former quarterback as well. Yes, of course 615 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: we're abs three reasons ward number one, he's Dak friendly. Two, 616 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: coaching is in the more family business. And then three 617 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: Scott Lyndahan's influenced. So yeah, Kellen was always going to 618 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: be a coach. Now is he guaranteed to be a 619 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 1: great head great coach and a head coach? Maybe a 620 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: head coach one day somewhere We don't know that. Um. 621 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 1: But just because you didn't have a bunch of success 622 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: in the NFL as a quarterback doesn't mean you can't 623 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: be a great coach. What was Doug Peterson's career? You're 624 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: like back. I was with him in Green Bay's to 625 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: drive him around. He drank a lot of beer. There 626 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: you go, there you go, likes ice cream, Brett Fire's hand. 627 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: He did him and Brett. But they were best friends, 628 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: absolutely were. Aaron Rodgers reportedly upset that his quarterback coach 629 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: wasn't retaining Green Bay it's Alex van Pelt and Pelt 630 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: that's right. You know, he didn't have a Pro Bowl career. No, 631 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: so you know, I think we need to relax on. 632 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: Oh god, why did they hire Kellen Moore? How old 633 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: is he now? Peterson? No more? No, he's I think 634 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: twenty nine, twenty nine. Yeah, yeah, he's been interning for 635 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: two years. Well he's twenty nine. His birthday July fifth, 636 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 1: same month as Dak. You can read into that as 637 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: how you want. There you go, you know, the higher 638 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: to me is fine. I mean, the one thing is 639 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 1: and I think your your point three is the best 640 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: one because it is ultimately you've got all these guys 641 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: in the field that are former quarterbacks, the head coach 642 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 1: of a former quarterback, the offensive coordinators, former quarterback, and 643 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 1: now you know, Dak's gonna need somebody that he can 644 00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 1: walk into the room. And I'm sure he's got a 645 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: good relationship with Jason or Lenahan. But if he really, 646 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 1: you know, is having a problem with something, mean one 647 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: thing to walk into the room. There the coach's office, 648 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: you know, Kellen's office, closed the door and say, hey man, 649 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 1: this is really what's going on. I need to think, 650 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: you know, and he could be a little bit of 651 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 1: sounding board too, when you know he's someone can sit. 652 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: You got Kellen Moore now in a meeting saying, hey, listen, 653 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 1: I talked to the quarterback.

It's just a good way of doing thing. 671 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: It's pretty funny. I know I talked about this last week, Rob. 672 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: Have you seen Tom first time at all? I have not. 673 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: Episode two came out now and this one's called The 674 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: Mental Game and it talks about, you know, his practicing 675 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: all this stuff, and you know, obviously he's lost the 676 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: super Bowl now, but prior to this, he shows, you know, 677 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 1: every day when he's like driving to work or he's 678 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 1: been watching film, he'll call Josh McDaniels and just leave 679 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 1: him voice messages. Hey, this is what I was thinking 680 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: we should do. But hey, I saw this. Did you 681 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: see this? Then they showed Josh calls him back and 682 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:43,959 Speaker 1: they're like, you know, just having x's and o's talk, right, 683 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: But he talks about his relationship with Josh McDaniels and 684 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: how he's come up in the organization, how they've kind 685 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: of grown up together and their relationship and how he's 686 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: always been his friend and they're hard on each other, 687 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: but they understand that. I mean, I don't know Dak 688 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: and Kellen as a friendship. You know, all I've seen 689 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: is what I see on the sidelines. But I saw 690 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: that a lot. And you know who I also saw 691 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: that with last year is Mark Sanchez. Yeah, Mark, Ye, 692 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,320 Speaker 1: this was really good. He credited both those guys for 693 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: really helping. Like Mickey said, sounding board, you know, I 694 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 1: mean who do you? Could you name who Troy Yankman's 695 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:21,360 Speaker 1: quarterback coach was. That's I was just gonna ask who's 696 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 1: the best quarterback coach in the NFL? Did they have 697 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,879 Speaker 1: a quarterback? It's a small staff, was I think they? Maybe? Yeah? Yeah? 698 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: So actually you know who the NORV turner. NORV took 699 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 1: care of it, but yeah, and he left Robert Alexander 700 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 1: handled the receivers when Michael was losing his mind. Yeah, 701 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 1: and then Robert Ford was involved too, But I don't 702 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: think was the tight ends coach. And I'm not sure 703 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 1: they had a quarterback. Joe Brodsky was. Sampeizy took care 704 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 1: of the offense. Yeah, you know who the quarter you 705 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 1: know who the quarterback coach was? Right? It was Jason Garrett. 706 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: He was the third quarter quarterback, right, and he was 707 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: the sounding board. Yeah, And he said that in the 708 00:34:58,040 --> 00:34:59,800 Speaker 1: end in one of our walk offs one time, remember, 709 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 1: and he was saying that Troy would tell you, yeah, yeah, 710 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 1: Troy would be and he like, okay, okay, I'll go 711 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: tell yeah I'll tell m Yeah, I'm gonna yeah, like 712 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go tell him, the same thing that Hubbard 713 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: did with Michael. Yeah, yeah, I'll go tell him. And 714 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: he went and walked to the other end of the 715 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 1: John McVeagh he was a quarterbacks coach, right, I think 716 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 1: so back in the day day day. Yeah, I know 717 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: they were Ocs, but he was with Yeah, it's if 718 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: there's things you're gonna get upset about, see that one's 719 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 1: like this is where mcdavie because you have a quarterback 720 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 1: that's a veteran guy seventeen years right in the league. Yeah, 721 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: and McDaniels all his years. I mean he was in 722 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 1: New England, his start in New England and he went 723 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: away to Denver, came back. You know, you have that 724 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: relationship if you're a guy all of a sudden and 725 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 1: you're now you know, you're my friend. You're not you know, 726 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 1: you don't have a high position, but all of a sudden, 727 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,399 Speaker 1: now you get you still maintain those friendships, you still 728 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 1: have that trust, you know, And that's I think. I 729 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,239 Speaker 1: don't have a problem with Kellen Moore, I really really don't. 730 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: Do you have a problem with the reports of Ben 731 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:02,320 Speaker 1: bloom being the linebackers coach. Maybe problem is strong that 732 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:04,920 Speaker 1: problems are not the right roblem's not the right word. 733 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 1: But you know, what are your thoughts on it? I'll 734 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 1: tell you what. To me, the most important hire they 735 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: made was if if it's true, have they said Chris 736 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: Richard is for sure? Have we come out and said 737 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: that one yet? Yeah? Jerry mentioned yet. Okay, Yes, I 738 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: think that's that's the one that if you eat lunch, 739 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 1: you're good. I see these guys eating lunch. I'm not 740 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: sure it's a pretty good side. If you've been eating 741 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: lunch here would say that that's that's enough, that's enough 742 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,279 Speaker 1: above someone else. But I've just I think that the 743 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 1: Chris Richard higher is really good. And I like this 744 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 1: because I think I do like the fact that he's 745 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 1: coming in with ideas. You know, he's he's run a 746 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 1: successful defense and maybe you know with with Marion Elliots 747 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: and nothing against Matt Eberflus, who's likely to go on 748 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,800 Speaker 1: and work in the Colts as their defensive coordinator. But 749 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: I like Chris Richard here. I think that's a really, 750 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 1: really good hire just for the fact is you've got 751 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,320 Speaker 1: a young secondary and he comes with ideas. He's played 752 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: against a lot of these these these offenses excuse me, 753 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,840 Speaker 1: in the NFC. He understands that, so that could be 754 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 1: a help. And I think he'll be more than just 755 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,839 Speaker 1: a defensive back. I totally agree, I totally he will 756 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 1: be the second man in charge. And that's the passing 757 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 1: the role, that's yeah. And he's been a defensive coordinator, 758 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 1: so sure knows about linebackers. He can keep an eye on, right, 759 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 1: He's got help in the secondary with Greg Jackson, right, 760 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: so he can kind of take a bigger picture. I 761 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:38,799 Speaker 1: think outlook coaching Ben Bloom, I'm okay, yeah, fine, that's 762 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 1: you know, that's good. Look at look at the big picture. Here, 763 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,560 Speaker 1: look at the one that's going to affect your team 764 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: probably the most. Yeah it's and yeah, you're right. And 765 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 1: Ben did work with the linebackers for a few years. 766 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: I think before you know he came in with Rob Ryan. 767 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:54,919 Speaker 1: He's worked with the linebackers, he's worked in other parts 768 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,240 Speaker 1: of the team, and now he's Shawn he's the linebacker coach. Okay, 769 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,080 Speaker 1: that's what people used to say about Peyton Manning, know 770 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 1: that he was essentially the quarterbacks coach in his own room. Well, 771 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:05,920 Speaker 1: Tom Moore, Tom Moore who was with him forever the 772 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: Colts will tell you exactly that. He goes, how do 773 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,800 Speaker 1: you coach this guy who goes? I just kind of 774 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 1: laid things out for him. Yeah, I mean like Winton 775 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 1: tight ends coach right there? Yeah, what are you going 776 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 1: to teach him? In? Sixteen years? Were awesome? They were awesome. Yes, 777 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 1: that's the one that they haven't filled that one. And 778 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 1: you know what, I don't think they're the route that 779 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 1: they I know. There was some rumor about the coach 780 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:32,399 Speaker 1: that was with Tennessee. Why am I going brain dead? 781 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 1: The last name Joseph Oh gosh McDonald no, no, no, no, no, 782 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 1: I'll think of it here a second. But there's they 783 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: brought in the Michael something Michael. But anyway, yeah, they 784 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 1: This sounds like this guy, this other coach that they 785 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 1: brought in. I can't hate when I can't remember names, 786 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: is going on to Tennessee Titans. Yeah, look up quarter, 787 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: look up offensive or offensive coordinator Tennessee Titans. And then 788 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 1: that it's terrible. I'm playing. I'm not helping yet. I 789 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 1: played a games out of helmet, I think, and that's 790 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 1: kind of affected the way I think nine days so Joseph, No, 791 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,760 Speaker 1: it's I can look it up here if my computer 792 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:12,200 Speaker 1: wasn't so slow. Offensive coordinator Tennessee Titans is what it is? 793 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 1: The current one? He was?

Two layers of pepperoni, 846 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: not us one. Two layers of pepperoni because it's one 847 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 1: hundred percent pork and beef, So that means you get 848 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 1: two hundred percent pork and beef on your pepperoni pizza 849 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 1: and with ingredients like that it's got to be Papa John's. 850 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 1: Just when the world was getting crazy, it got a 851 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 1: little crazier. They need that in more pepperoni for the 852 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 1: parade tomorrow to feed all those people, because I can 853 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,800 Speaker 1: guarantee you they'll be drinking a lot of fluids and 854 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: hopefully eating more than drinking. There you go. Yeah, they'll 855 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: be eating dinner at Pietro's in downtown Philadelphia. Yeah, let's 856 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 1: watch out for this family salad. There you go. Jason 857 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 1: Michael's your guy, Jason Michael. I can't I'm sorry, folks, 858 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 1: and I can't remember name, but they got some names 859 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 1: in my head. Yeah, Jason Michael interviewed last week for 860 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 1: this job, and there was thought that he was going 861 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: to get this job. And I'm kind of hearing that 862 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,959 Speaker 1: maybe that Jason Michael is going to take another job. 863 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 1: So I like Jason's around here. It's very odd they 864 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 1: didn't keep him. Yeah, all right, Rob's twitter pole, you 865 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,319 Speaker 1: go get us heated up again. This one's playing and simple, Tam, 866 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: And we kind of touched on it earlier in the show. 867 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 1: Very Eagles themed. How close are the Cowboys to catching 868 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles? Next season. You got 869 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: two options. Are they close? Are they not close? What 870 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 1: do you think? Well, or they beat him twice in 871 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: twenty sixty, right they did. I've I only lost to 872 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 1: him twice in Philadelphia in the last eight years. He 873 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 1: can kind of throw out those last two games in Philly. 874 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 1: They're kind of Yeah, not a great right rometer for 875 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 1: either team. I haven't had much on the line in either. Again, 876 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:38,160 Speaker 1: I think Taylor, I think there's where you look at 877 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: their strength. Well, maybe I think that it's now a 878 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 1: wash on the offensive line. Probably maybe they have a 879 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 1: better offensive line their defensive line has been then in 880 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:49,359 Speaker 1: their offensive linemen or free agents at all. No, Oh 881 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: my gosh, would it surprise you that the Cowboys and 882 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 1: the Eagles tied for fifteenth and sacks in the next 883 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 1: That's that's what. No, that that that is true. That 884 00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 1: is a true And see I'm trying, I'm trying to think. 885 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,240 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think though, if you look at position 886 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:11,120 Speaker 1: for position, their offensive line can neutralize your defensive line, 887 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 1: you think, and then now you have to think about 888 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,839 Speaker 1: where's are they better? They better at receiver, they're better 889 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: at tight end, they're better at linebacker. See, that's now 890 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 1: there's a lot of check marks in their boxes for 891 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,840 Speaker 1: secondary secondary. I mean, well, you got the young secondary, 892 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 1: we'll have what do you think you get better? Yeah? 893 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,720 Speaker 1: That that that to me would be maybe you're starting 894 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 1: to think about, well, maybe that's a wash. I mean 895 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 1: they did give up five yards, that is true, and 896 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,800 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys did the same thing against the Chargers 897 00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 1: and then change their secondary right, you know, right, I 898 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:43,840 Speaker 1: think the person that will dictate the most of that 899 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:48,680 Speaker 1: rob the answer on that is Ezeki Elliott because look, okay, 900 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 1: you can't say injuries anymore really, because the Eagles just 901 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:55,399 Speaker 1: showed you that. They showed you that they had good 902 00:44:55,520 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 1: enough depth to maintain strong injuries quarterback, left tackle, linebacker. 903 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:05,479 Speaker 1: They showed you that. But you have to be able 904 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 1: to rely on Ezekielett that he can be on the 905 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 1: field for sixteen games for you next season. And of 906 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 1: course this season was just absolutely exhausting with his trial, 907 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 1: and you know he showed you forty two days. The documentary, 908 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:19,759 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's out yet. I'll probably be 909 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 1: watching that next after Tom Verst time. But did actually 910 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 1: get done I don't know, I don't know to be sure, 911 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 1: but all I'm saying is that I think Ezekiel Elliott 912 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 1: makes the biggest difference in that right now because I 913 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:33,520 Speaker 1: need him to be on the field. I don't need 914 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 1: ten games suspensions. I think in twenty sixteen you would 915 00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,879 Speaker 1: have said Prescott over Wins. Last year, now you say 916 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 1: wins over Prescott. You know, as far as year to year, Yeah, 917 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 1: I mean he would see what your three brings. He 918 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,200 Speaker 1: might have won the MVP wins if he'd stayed healthy, 919 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:49,360 Speaker 1: he might he might have beat out Tom Brady for 920 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,360 Speaker 1: that award. That's how good he was this past season. 921 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 1: So I'm with you, Tay. I mean, they won nine 922 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,879 Speaker 1: games without their best player for six games, and that's 923 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 1: not good enough. That's not what they want. Um. But 924 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 1: you know what, they've built that whole football team around Zeke. 925 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:08,440 Speaker 1: They really have their offense to help out their defense 926 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 1: as well, and when he's not on the field, they're 927 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:14,720 Speaker 1: gonna struggle. Something they did. Bottom line. But the answer 928 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,359 Speaker 1: to the pole fans, I think fans probably don't think 929 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 1: they're close at all. Yeah, I didn't have a not 930 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:22,399 Speaker 1: close at all questions. Well, I mean yeah, well yeah, 931 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:28,280 Speaker 1: whichever what the negative the negative win? Yeah, fifty seven 932 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,800 Speaker 1: percent say they're not close to catching the Eagles season, 933 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 1: and Mickey brings up the point, I mean, what was 934 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 1: what was the stat on back to back NFC East 935 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: champions I mean it's still hadn't happened since the Eagles 936 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,799 Speaker 1: in two thousand and four. Yeah, every every year is different. Um, 937 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,360 Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see. I think you know, Cowboys have 938 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,360 Speaker 1: to get better in some spots, no question about it. 939 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 1: It's amazing like a couple of years ago, you know, 940 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 1: you were there's at all the answers and sixteen right, 941 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,240 Speaker 1: I feel like we are changing momentum though with the beard. 942 00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:00,840 Speaker 1: If you keep the beard, we might see some different 943 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 1: things here. I feel positive about a beard through the 944 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 1: end of twenty eighteen. And let's just see what happens 945 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 1: with the beard. It won't make it till March. Oh, 946 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 1: because he's on TV again TV star here. No, it 947 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:15,920 Speaker 1: just can we convince better with the beard? Itchy and 948 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:19,680 Speaker 1: hot Okay, it's just kinda cut that drop. I just 949 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 1: keep listening. I get listening. I keep thinking about the 950 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:26,359 Speaker 1: roster and your roster, I know, I mean, I mean 951 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 1: just think that you know safety, I'm just positioned by position, 952 00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:34,879 Speaker 1: you know, how this team would shake would would match 953 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:38,480 Speaker 1: up with them, I think to me, I mean they 954 00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 1: obviously they where they got better was their depth got better. Yes, 955 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: that's where that's where they get you. And that goes 956 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:47,879 Speaker 1: back to some of the moves they made. That that's 957 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 1: where made a lot of moves at work. So who's 958 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 1: that on coaching or oh that's a front office, front 959 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 1: office a job, that's front office. Because again, if you're 960 00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,320 Speaker 1: adding players, if you're at see they got Nelson Aguilar 961 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,080 Speaker 1: to play well now see and Alison Aguilar didn't play 962 00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:05,239 Speaker 1: well for a few years. That was mean, that was 963 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 1: the bust. That was the most surprising thing I think 964 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,800 Speaker 1: during their stretch at the end of the season and 965 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 1: playoffs that he was born. Aguilar was just a guy. Yeah, 966 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:17,839 Speaker 1: they were down on him. Yeah he was a first 967 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:20,440 Speaker 1: round pick right, yep, sure was. And and and it's like, 968 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,879 Speaker 1: where's this guy? Actually he was taking ahead of Byron Jones. 969 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:25,080 Speaker 1: If I'm not mistaken, I could make a case for 970 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 1: him being the MVP of that Super Bowl. Yeah, because 971 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 1: he plays difference in the plays he made. Watch him 972 00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:34,400 Speaker 1: in the game and you're thinking, is that Sean Jackson 973 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 1: out there? You know he's wearing the same number, and 974 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 1: he's making these amazing because they took off after the 975 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:45,400 Speaker 1: first catch, Elshan Jeffrey disappeared and it was him and 976 00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,839 Speaker 1: Ernst and the running backs. Yeah, that's would beat them. 977 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:52,399 Speaker 1: Can we do a little pole on the show really quickly? Yeah? 978 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:55,839 Speaker 1: Who deserves I mean, now this would probably have been 979 00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 1: better for last week, But who deserves a Super Bowl more? 980 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:03,399 Speaker 1: The City of Philadelphia or Jason Witten? I think Jason Witch, 981 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:05,200 Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I think the Cowboys. I don't think 982 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 1: the City of Philadelphia show and they deserve anything. I 983 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:09,800 Speaker 1: think two years ago Jason Witten really believed that he 984 00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:13,040 Speaker 1: was going to the Super Bowl. Yeah, I do. And 985 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: I think he talks about those kids and what they 986 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:17,440 Speaker 1: mean to him and how you know, they give him 987 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 1: energy and stuff. That was we saw him at the 988 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:22,880 Speaker 1: end of the season. It's it's gut wrenching to watch him, 989 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:26,840 Speaker 1: you know, saddle up and not have the opportunity to 990 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 1: go do this. Yeah, and you know we're talking about 991 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:33,719 Speaker 1: tight ends. Rob Gronkowski now talking about questioning his retirement 992 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 1: and things like that. Can a lot of hits elbow, 993 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 1: knee head, He's serious, they'll be back. It's emotional. I 994 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 1: mean if I just lost Super Bowl. I'd be like, 995 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:46,399 Speaker 1: I'm done with football and I hate this that, And yeah, 996 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,719 Speaker 1: he's had a million injuries too for a guy who's 997 00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:52,239 Speaker 1: only twenty nine. The concussion thing probably scared him pretty good. 998 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:53,800 Speaker 1: The other I'm sure it gave him pause because that 999 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:55,879 Speaker 1: was the second one. R it's the second one, right. 1000 00:49:56,360 --> 00:50:02,719 Speaker 1: Does he look like he is so much bigger than everybody? Oh? Yeah, 1001 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 1: I think it reminded me of great athletes like the 1002 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 1: little Thale with the Giants and the little Eputians. Yeah, 1003 00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:14,360 Speaker 1: it was such travels. I was so bigger than everybody 1004 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 1: else out there. Travel You know that him and Nick 1005 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:22,839 Speaker 1: Foles played together at Arizona. Yeah? Really, asting, I mean 1006 00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:27,080 Speaker 1: you have a just breeding athletes for Scooby, that guy, 1007 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: Where do you end up? Scooby was with the Browns. 1008 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:31,359 Speaker 1: Oh and now I think he's on the street now, 1009 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 1: Oh man, Scooby, right life, will hut you fast? Yea, 1010 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:38,480 Speaker 1: that's you fast? Yeah? No, I mean Robert Gronkowski, he 1011 00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:41,280 Speaker 1: is hell of an athlete. But it's just always crazy 1012 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:44,200 Speaker 1: to see after these games these guys, what they go through, 1013 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,200 Speaker 1: what they're dealing with. But the tight end position almost 1014 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 1: was revolutionized with him just re upped, you know, because 1015 00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 1: it was kind of getting a little stagnant and then 1016 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:57,200 Speaker 1: everyone was like, okay, tight end. He was like, he 1017 00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 1: is like Tony Gonzalez two point zero in terms of 1018 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:03,440 Speaker 1: just this freak pass catching tight end. But now the 1019 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: argument is Witten. Yeah, let's see it does everything. That's 1020 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,600 Speaker 1: where Malcolm Jenkins came out. Did you see what he said? 1021 00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 1: He says, when you play against Grinkowski, it's like playing 1022 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:14,040 Speaker 1: against the combination of Witten and then our guy at 1023 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:18,800 Speaker 1: Kansas City. He says, it's like a combo of those guys. 1024 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,640 Speaker 1: He says, imagine putting those guys together and forming one 1025 00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 1: tight end. That's what you get having to deal with 1026 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:26,719 Speaker 1: that guy puzz he's big enough. He Do you see 1027 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 1: the block he through scrimmage? Oh, that one where it's 1028 00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 1: just domination. Yeah I saw that. Yeah. Huge. Yeah. Glad 1029 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,240 Speaker 1: you brought up Travis Kelsey. You know, it's not often 1030 00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 1: that you see two brothers playing in the NFL. We 1031 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 1: we see it here on the same team. But yeah, 1032 00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:44,800 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey, I think you said Kelsey might be the 1033 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:47,439 Speaker 1: best center. Now I'll tell you what he's Yeah, he's 1034 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 1: him and Travis Frederick you know Mac in Atlanta. They've 1035 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 1: They've got some quality centers in this league. But I'll 1036 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,560 Speaker 1: tell you what he's he's fun to watch. I don't 1037 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:59,279 Speaker 1: know if he's he's not the strongest guy. But the leverage, 1038 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:03,040 Speaker 1: the mobility, the second level stuff he's he's always on 1039 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 1: his feet. That's what you gotta have. That is incredible. Yes, Now, 1040 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:08,839 Speaker 1: someone who is both an Eagle and a cowboy. Terrell 1041 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:12,000 Speaker 1: Owns is in the Pro Football Hall of Fame officially 1042 00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 1: class of twenty eighteen, joining names like Randy Moster, Kramer, 1043 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 1: Braner Lacker. What are your thoughts? Ryan Dawkins too, Bran Dawkins. 1044 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:24,880 Speaker 1: That one doesn't set well with me. TiO oh Dawkins, 1045 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:30,759 Speaker 1: Oh Dawkins. He's putting his hands up to you want 1046 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 1: to go into it, like Dawkins over Woodie, Are Dawkins 1047 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 1: overs Everson Walls about the safety position? But yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 1048 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 1: the safety position. John Lynch would probably say something like 1049 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,759 Speaker 1: that too. Yeah. I mean, okay, he had thirty seven 1050 00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:50,120 Speaker 1: career interceptions. Can I can I speak on just my experience, 1051 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:53,360 Speaker 1: but you saw him, so no, I saw him and 1052 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:57,279 Speaker 1: I was with him in Philadelphia and Brian Dawkins has 1053 00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:01,440 Speaker 1: the qualities of Darren Woodson. He does. He might he 1054 00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:03,719 Speaker 1: is not the player of Darren Woodson, but he has 1055 00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 1: the qualities the game and a lot to him. He 1056 00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:09,479 Speaker 1: has a great teammate. He was passionate about the game. 1057 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 1: You know, he played it the right way. You know, 1058 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:15,440 Speaker 1: I understand where Cowboy fans have their you know, with 1059 00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:18,800 Speaker 1: Everson Everson walls and stuff. I get that Jerry Kramer 1060 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 1: was going to get in. I just felt that was 1061 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 1: going to happen. If you talk to the voters, they 1062 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 1: were they were hopeful, but they kind of understood what 1063 00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:29,719 Speaker 1: was up they were up against. But I do know 1064 00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:33,279 Speaker 1: this about Brian Dawkins. If if there's a guy, he 1065 00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:37,719 Speaker 1: is the Darren Woodson of the Philadelphiagles. That's how much 1066 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:41,320 Speaker 1: he meant to them. And so I I when he 1067 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,480 Speaker 1: again my experience just being with him, I respect that 1068 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:46,840 Speaker 1: the way he is, but you know, I would like 1069 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,040 Speaker 1: to have seene. I was surprised two wide receivers got in. 1070 00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:51,200 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, me too, you know, Oh, 1071 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:54,319 Speaker 1: I was almost feeling which is kind of an odd 1072 00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:56,600 Speaker 1: It's a different perspective that I have here. You know, 1073 00:53:56,640 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 1: in the past two years. I will give credit to 1074 00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:00,719 Speaker 1: the Pro Football Hall of Fame and what they've done 1075 00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 1: digitally showcasing the moments that happened. I think everyone saw 1076 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:09,320 Speaker 1: Randy Moss his reaction and showing I guarantee you most 1077 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 1: NFL fans three four years ago would not have known 1078 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,439 Speaker 1: about the knock and the call the way that they've 1079 00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,520 Speaker 1: broadcasted that now, and you know a lot of it 1080 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,520 Speaker 1: we all learned with Jerry Jones, but you know the 1081 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:23,319 Speaker 1: way that they've done that now. And then what to 1082 00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 1: did last year following his denial the second year in 1083 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 1: a row as a finalist, it almost seems like, are 1084 00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 1: you just scared of him on social media? Are you 1085 00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 1: scared because you're gonna get this backlash? Well, I mean, 1086 00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:38,839 Speaker 1: I know his numbers are there. He wouldn't be there 1087 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:42,080 Speaker 1: if they weren't, but he thir round pick TESSI, Chad Nuga. 1088 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:45,320 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, you look at his numbers, and he 1089 00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:47,880 Speaker 1: should be in off of his numbers. Yeah, and then 1090 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:52,920 Speaker 1: it goes back to the polarizing attitude and relationship with teammates. 1091 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:55,400 Speaker 1: But to me, you know, and we covered to and 1092 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,520 Speaker 1: the thing about him that is so fascinating is like, yeah, 1093 00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:01,680 Speaker 1: there's people don't like him, but there are teammates that 1094 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:05,839 Speaker 1: swear by him and love him, you know, and your head. 1095 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 1: You know, the fellow receivers that he played with, you know, 1096 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,279 Speaker 1: I think he tried to you know, mentor some of 1097 00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 1: those young guys. Um, am I wrong? I mean, he's 1098 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 1: an incinerator. That's fair to have that opinion. That's a 1099 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:21,839 Speaker 1: lot of people have that opinion. I'm just saying based 1100 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 1: off of his numbers. And it's hard to say he 1101 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:27,759 Speaker 1: was had off the field problems because he was never 1102 00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:29,719 Speaker 1: in trouble with the law. And there's guys that have 1103 00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:31,280 Speaker 1: gotten in the Hall of Fame that we're in trouble 1104 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:35,359 Speaker 1: with the law. So he's he I don't know, he's 1105 00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 1: a fascinating person to me. I've I've never been able 1106 00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 1: to quite figure it out. But I saw that the 1107 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:44,239 Speaker 1: two receivers going in. It just seemed like, OK, are 1108 00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 1: you guys scared of his reaction? Again, I don't think 1109 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:48,640 Speaker 1: that had anything to do with it. I don't know. 1110 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:52,399 Speaker 1: It's I think they felt like he waited long long enough. 1111 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 1: It was the third time, and because you look numbers 1112 00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:59,480 Speaker 1: in Banta, but his numbers say he could have been 1113 00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:02,480 Speaker 1: he could have been. Yeah, so maybe two years ye 1114 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,400 Speaker 1: look up with Bill Polian had to say about him. Oh, No, 1115 00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:08,600 Speaker 1: he's not for everybody, that's for sure. He didn't leave 1116 00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 1: here on great terms. By the way, Oh, because he 1117 00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:13,359 Speaker 1: incinerated the locker room last year. Once he got his money, 1118 00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:15,480 Speaker 1: then all bets were off. I had a coach tell 1119 00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:17,920 Speaker 1: me he is one of the most single, most dividers 1120 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 1: that he's ever had in the locker room. That he 1121 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,880 Speaker 1: divides players that he doesn't you know. And what happens 1122 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:29,520 Speaker 1: is he doesn't he doesn't do it outwardly. Yeah, but 1123 00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:32,080 Speaker 1: what he does is he takes the players that are 1124 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:35,040 Speaker 1: on the bottom of the rosters. Have you ever noticed, Yeah, 1125 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,360 Speaker 1: have you ever noticed? His friends tend to be the 1126 00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:40,759 Speaker 1: guys who are a player fifty fifty one and fifty two, 1127 00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 1: empowers them and then he kind of like kind of 1128 00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 1: gets them into his corner and stuff, and then he 1129 00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:49,000 Speaker 1: goes against I had a head coach. It was a 1130 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:51,520 Speaker 1: long conversation about him. He said, one of the most 1131 00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:53,560 Speaker 1: talented guys he'd ever been around. But he says, he 1132 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: will divide your locker room in a heartbeat. Yeah, he's 1133 00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 1: the high blood pressure of locker rooms.
