And by the way, that or 14 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: anything that Jimmy Johnson statement, that's an exclamation. But if 15 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: you want to make it a question, how about them cowboys? 16 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: Question Mark, I would say cowboys suck? That's what I 17 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 1: would say. Actually, got it? Now? More about it's how 18 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: about Yeah? Really that's an actual question, all right, question, 19 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: not an exclamation. Okay, And so you don't want to 20 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: go ahead and just move on to Philadelphia. There's things 21 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: to discuss about what happened yesterday, I think Sunday afternoon 22 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: at age fans sitting there on the side of their 23 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: seats waiting for us to talk about this. Oh they 24 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: are what, ain't you know? Usually, usually, though Mickey, in 25 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: the TV business, like the local TV sportscast business, the traditionally, 26 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: if the Cowboys lose a game on a Sunday, the 27 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: ratings go way down at the clock on Sunday night. 28 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: People do not want to relive that. Well I can. 29 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: I can vouch for that because when I was working 30 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: at the Dallas Times Harold, and the office was in 31 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: downtown Dallas where back in the day they used to 32 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: put newspapers in rats and you had to put your 33 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 1: fifty cents in there or whatever it costs back then, 34 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: after a loss, all the papers were still there. Yeah. 35 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: Well here's the deal though. Wow. Yeah, one thing, that's 36 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 1: the case for the night of a game or the 37 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: day after a game in the newspaper business or the 38 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: TV business. But the sports talk business, it thrives on raging. 39 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: Uh huh, that's exactly right. So here we are in 40 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: the sports I never watched. I never watched any of 41 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: the first takes get ups. I don't I don't watch 42 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: any of that. I thought that was just me. I 43 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: don't want to hear any any any type of the 44 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: same opinions or anything about that my own right, you 45 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: don't know what the heck you're talking about. Do we 46 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: know what the heck we're talking about, Mick, Yes, we do. Okay, 47 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: this is an educational show, all right, perspective, putting things 48 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: in the perspective. So so how about them Cowboys? Well 49 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: check this out. And this is sort of what I 50 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: began my column with for this morning. Is nearly every team, 51 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: nearly that kind of a playoff type team, because remember 52 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy said, this is going to be like a 53 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: playoff weekend. The games, Almost every team struggled and we're losing, 54 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: just like the Cowboys. But they came back, and they 55 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: came back and won. I said, almost the Rams were 56 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: trailing the Bucks, Tampa Bay was trailing, twenty Jets end 57 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: to the Jets. The Bills, right, the Bills were trailing, 58 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: Cincinnati was trailing, Philadelphia was trailing, and they all came 59 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: back and figured out a way to win it. New 60 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: England was another one that the Cowboy they put there 61 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: playing Jackson. Yeah, so so again I said, almost does 62 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: he would you define on because I would love to 63 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: move this on? So yes, because I've got stuff to say. 64 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: So yeah, you get and there trailing twenty two seven 65 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 1: and they could not can you believe that at the 66 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: end twenty two seven to make the plays necessary to 67 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: win the game, and they had a little help, and 68 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: I left my white head. Oh man, how do you 69 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: losing it? You can't leave it. You can't keep leaving 70 00:04:55,760 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 1: it behind because they sucked as well this game. Come on, man, 71 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: this is mit shots, this is not we don't have 72 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: I could take the gloves off, right, please please do 73 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: well the players didn't hesitate. Wow, And I'm not I'm 74 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: not blaming that, right, but it made a significant difference 75 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: on all those third down holding calls. Whenever he sating 76 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: what happened with the running game, Well, okay, they're big 77 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: runs got called back because of holding. And I need 78 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,359 Speaker 1: somebody to define holding to me. What is holding? Can I, 79 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: if I'm an offensive lineman, can I put my hands 80 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: on their shoulders? If I don't rip the jersey off, 81 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: I'm just blocking them and then the one that I 82 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,919 Speaker 1: think pissed me off the most was the NFL has 83 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: got to come up with a year of twenty twenty 84 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: two to determine when there's a delay of game, like 85 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: when the shot cuts expires. Like in basketball we know, right, 86 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: buzzer sound right? Then in football in this day and age, 87 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,799 Speaker 1: where we put a guy on the moon or anybody, 88 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: but the show can go up into space. There you go, 89 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: there you go. That's better. We gotta wait for the 90 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: back judge to look at the clock and then when 91 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: it hit zero, then he looks down to the center 92 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: to see if the ball has been snapped. And in 93 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: that split second of time, they screwed up two calls right, 94 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,919 Speaker 1: two significant calls in the first half. When DeMarcus Lawrence 95 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: got called for off sides, he was watching the clock, yes, 96 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: and he basically said, when it hit double zero, I 97 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: took off and they called him for off sides. Not 98 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: a delayed game. And then the big one on that 99 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 1: last drive for Arizona, the clock had expired. I saw 100 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: it go zero zero, and then I looked down and 101 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,559 Speaker 1: a second later they snapped it. One second later, Yes, 102 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: and it should have been a delay of game. Stop 103 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: the clock, right, you don't get that eleven yard game 104 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys don't have to use their time out there, 105 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: and then you have that left for a challenge that 106 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 1: exactly Yes, So from a mechanical standpoint in the game, 107 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: those things were really significant. I know everybody wanted to 108 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 1: look at the holding calls and all that, So putting 109 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: holding calls aside, those two calls, yes, were significant in 110 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: the outcome of this game. How do they miss that? 111 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: Especially the last one when nobody moved. It wasn't offsides 112 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: or anything. It was a delay of game period. They 113 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: didn't get the ball off. Having said all of that, 114 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: and I know you're not finished, but my thing is this, 115 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: because I'm so anxious about this. Do they interview referees 116 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: after the game? They can do a pool report if 117 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: it's requested, and I'm sure having done it, it's a 118 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: no wins situation because you go into the referees little 119 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,119 Speaker 1: locker room and they're all sitting there, right, and they're 120 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: all looking at you like you got leprosy, and they're yeah, 121 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: and there's eight of them or however many, right, and 122 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: they're daring you to ask a question. And what they 123 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: do is whatever your question is like, which call it is? 124 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: The head referee is standing there with a microphone, right, 125 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 1: I mean a recorder. Yeah. Uh. The NFL director of 126 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: that game's official is standing there with a recorder, and 127 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: they pull up the position referee that made the call, 128 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,839 Speaker 1: and he's there with a recorder. And you've got a recorder. 129 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 1: Now you ask the question as they're they're shooting darts 130 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 1: at you, right, And I think I would I would 131 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,839 Speaker 1: revel in that. And basically, I truly do think I 132 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: would revel in Basically, you ask your questions, they give 133 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 1: your answer, and you might get a follow up. If not, 134 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: it's like, Okay, it's like Tom right when he didn't 135 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: want Yeah, it's like a Belichick. Okay, there's your answer. 136 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 1: So but yeah, and no one requested it because I 137 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: don't think anybody was paying. But throughout the week, now 138 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to at least something about that performance 139 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: of that team, the performance of that NFL. Well they don't, 140 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: They don't release it, but they will review it, and 141 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: then they give them points for postseason and they make 142 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 1: a statement and they make a statement, well, they never 143 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 1: make a state. They never make a statement. Now, No, 144 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: and that crew as Mike McCarthy pointed out, was noted 145 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: for making calls. And I looked it up and they 146 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: were fourthmost. And in that game they're seventeen penalties they 147 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: called in the game got their total to two hundred 148 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: and eight. They were averaging nearly fourteen penalties a game. 149 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: So the question is do they have a propensity to 150 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: call it against the home team all the time? And 151 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: the team hold broken down. It was more against the 152 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,719 Speaker 1: visiting team than the but not by much. So it 153 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: was almost even. I know what happened to this game. 154 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: I don't know about what the past is, but this 155 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: game I thought that not just it's not just a number, 156 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: it's the timeliness of it, all right, and how it 157 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: affects the game, and how it affects our affectiveness. So 158 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: if you have you said your speel, your initial speel, 159 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: I'm going to be interrupting you guys throughout the entire shell. Okay, yeah, 160 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 1: you've just finished, all right. But on the topic of 161 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 1: the last drive by Arizona, which you're talking about there, 162 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: the Cardinals did have a fifteen yard run by Kyler Murray, 163 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: an eleven yard passed to Zach Ertz on a second 164 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: and seven play they got him a first down a 165 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds eleven yard run that got oh no, that 166 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 1: was the one that would have been eliminated. Okay, eleven 167 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: yard run. Okay, So all right, they run the same 168 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: play and they get an eleven yard run after the 169 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 1: penalty that gets them two second And where was the 170 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: fumble a second and four? And then the next play 171 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: was the fumble player? And how much time was left? 172 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: And there was two forty nine before on that time 173 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: out after the eleven yard run, it was two forty nine, 174 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: so roughly in that area there there, so I would 175 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: have had two forty nine left, you would have had 176 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: a time out and want to review it, right, yeah, 177 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: But because it was more than two minutes to go, 178 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: it doesn't go upstairs. And we need a clarification of 179 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,679 Speaker 1: when it goes upstairs and when it doesn't because they 180 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 1: do it all the time, right, all of a sudden 181 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: they go, oh no, we're picking up that flag or 182 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: oh no, this happened. They do that outside of the 183 00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: two minutes, yes, without a challenge, right, go ahead, but anyway, 184 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 1: and then and anyway, second in four, Kyler Murray goes 185 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: for nine yards and so I mean the point, My 186 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: point is stop him. Oh no, the defense did not 187 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: play well enough, and that not nearly well enough. And 188 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: my thing is this, And yes, you're right, Yeah, we 189 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: have to do our job, there's no doubt about it. 190 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: But when you're when you're a football player, you out 191 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: there playing, all this stuff is going on, you're in 192 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: fear of bodily injury and things that nature. The referees 193 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: have no fear of bodily injury. The only fear is 194 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: making a bad call. You say so, if you got 195 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: the expience, see that. My problem with it is the 196 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: fifteen yard or by Murray, but from his own twenty 197 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: five to the forty and then the past and now 198 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,079 Speaker 1: they get into four down territory and they're not kicking 199 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,199 Speaker 1: a field goal. Okay, you got to stop him at 200 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: some point, and now they did with the fumble that 201 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 1: that they didn't have a time out to review it 202 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: and so forth. I mean, if you're playing it out 203 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: in reality, happened, uh, but at some point you got 204 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: to stop them on that drive, and and the Cowboys 205 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: didn't stop them, and they got down in the end 206 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: of the area where they could run out the clock. Yeah, 207 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: I'm definitely disappointed in them not being able to stop them. 208 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: But just like any game where you see comebacks happen, 209 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: where you see greatness happen, where you know your your 210 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: game plan is coming to fruition. Uh, even down to 211 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: the last moment, you need everyone else to do their job. 212 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:36,559 Speaker 1: The offensive line, the quarterback, wide receivers, and the freaking referees, 213 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: and they have to do their job. Bill, And my 214 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: point also is go back to the third quarter and 215 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: stop them to where do you get more than six 216 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:50,319 Speaker 1: plays in the in the quarter? Of course, right, you 217 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 1: got nailed on that. Well, well, no, the fake punt 218 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: was early in the game. I'm talking about third quarter. 219 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: I thought the third quarter where they had the ball 220 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: for eight minutes. They had the ball at the start 221 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 1: of the third quarter, they had it for five minutes 222 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 1: and twenty one seconds, and it's touchdown pass to Wesley 223 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 1: that made it nineteen to seven. Then the Cowboys had 224 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: a three and out, and then it was a forty 225 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: nine yard nine play drive for a field goal. Now 226 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: they're up twenty two to seven. Well where was the 227 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: first quarter? Yeah, second quarter where they drained the whole quarter, 228 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: right exactly, So you get back into a third quarter 229 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: where it's a thirteen seven game at the half, and 230 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: if you come out in the third quarter and you 231 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: can stop them on either one of those drives. Now, 232 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: you did have the three and out mixed in, so 233 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: it's not all on the defense, but the third quarters 234 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: where they took command of the game. So the three 235 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: and out occurred after one of the holding calls, right, 236 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: and that was the Connor Williams holding call, and that 237 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: was a twelve yard run by Dak right first down. 238 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: All the holding calls happened on third down. Right, Look, 239 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: that's very timely. We've we've we've mentioned we've mentioned this 240 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: before and I know I have that the biggest deficiency 241 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: of this defense is giving up big place and when 242 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: they when the well goes dry on takeaways, then it's 243 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: up to them to get off the field. And they 244 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 1: they have go back and look at the losses they 245 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: have inability. The last time they didn't have any takeaways 246 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: the Raiders game. What happened got beat right? Uh? Yeah yeah? 247 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 1: So uh they had six plays of nineteen yards or 248 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: more forty three and forty two. And if you remember 249 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: last week, I pointed out that that was the Cowboys problem. 250 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: They gave up fifty five pass plays of twenty yards 251 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: or more and the Cardinals calling card was fifty six 252 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: pass plays of twenty yards or more and they had 253 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: like a dozen of thirty or more. So no takeaways 254 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: and then the big plays come back to bite you bad. Well, 255 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: what I saw was just I was at both games. 256 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: I was there yesterday, and it's the familiar tone to me. Offensively, 257 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: when we come out, I would rather we defer the toss, 258 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: you know, I would rather we defer the ball. They 259 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: didn't have that choice because you know, when we come 260 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: out offensively, we are so lack of days ago. Were 261 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: you at the game, Bill, I was, no, I was 262 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: watching you had being there. It was so quiet as 263 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: the offense was trying to like the old Texas Stadium crowd. Well, 264 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: and let me say this, I agree with you on Matt, 265 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 1: but I think this offense could come out and change 266 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: that just like that. Just show me some type of initiative. 267 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 1: Show me. Remer talked about trying to start the lawn more. 268 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:14,959 Speaker 1: Do I have the right type of gas? You know 269 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: this is been in there? Yeah, it was it over 270 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: the offseason, you know what I mean, during the winter. 271 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 1: Should I drain it. I mean, yeah, yeah, we tryed 272 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: all that. Just go take it to the shop. That's 273 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: what I do. I stayed to the shop and let 274 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: them do the overhauls when we come on back. But 275 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: it's the same familiar tone. Offensively, we seem to be 276 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: going out there offensively waiting on something to happen. Well, 277 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 1: in this one, they were moving right. They got the 278 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 1: third and four at the Arizona forty eight, moved from 279 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: the twenty to the Arizona forty eight, and what happened 280 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 1: offensive holding right all right, and now all of a sudden, 281 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: third and four turns into three third and fourteen. You 282 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: got a call for that play. And as I continue, 283 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: and I think we need to be up and I 284 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: get it. We have this game plan. Everything is so 285 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: perfectly coordinated. We gotta fit this in here, fit this 286 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: in there, and when this happens, that happened, they're gonna 287 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: think we're gonna do this and know what's setting them 288 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: up mentally, and we're gonna do that. Sometimes just go 289 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: deep and I say that it sounds elementary, but here's 290 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: the thing. You've got defensive backs that have no fear. 291 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: Whether it's a cover two man cover one man or blitz. 292 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: They have no fear of our wide receivers going deep. 293 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: And if I had that, if I was playing against 294 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: a team like that, I would squat on everything. And 295 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 1: thus you have so many near interceptions from this offense 296 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: because of the fact that they are not being threatened 297 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 1: down the field. You're not running the ball well, you're 298 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 1: not throwing the ball deep. And I'm surprised that we 299 00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: have the yards we have thrown the ball considering that fact. 300 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,919 Speaker 1: Let's be real, we get a lot of our yards 301 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 1: because we fall behind and they finally loosen up a 302 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: little bit on the defensive side. So I think we 303 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 1: need to be more aggressive offensively. And this is nothing new. 304 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,959 Speaker 1: This is not any type of knee jerk reaction. I 305 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 1: have always said that we are we have dbs sitting 306 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: down on our routes and I'm telling you it's dangerous 307 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: and it's gonna lead to a pick six. It's gonna 308 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: need lead to more than one pick six. But done, okay. 309 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: But so that was the first possession I talked about. 310 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: The second possession, they go from their twenty five to 311 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 1: first and ten. At the Arizona twenty six, it's third 312 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 1: and four at the twenty and they call a false 313 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: start on beyondish. All right, do you remember the play? No? 314 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: I don't. Yes, Dak Prescott was in shotgun, he was 315 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: moving up to change the play beyond a reset, He's 316 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,439 Speaker 1: got his hand on the ball, and they called a 317 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 1: false start. They weren't. They weren't even like close to 318 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 1: snapping the well see that every week, every week, every game, 319 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: they called it because the cardinal player pointed. He got 320 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: he stood up and he pointed, and that's why. Okay, 321 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: So now it's third and nine. They have an incompletion 322 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 1: and the kicker decides, I can't make twelve in a 323 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: row field goals. I can only make eleven and he 324 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: misses from forty three it could have been three three? 325 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: How many points they lose by three three? I'm I'm 326 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 1: already off the Greg the leg bandwagon. I've been off 327 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: that thing. This guy missing too many field goals, extra points, 328 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: give me a break. And then at home and then 329 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: I think the wind was it too much wind in 330 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 1: the stadium? And then the next yeah, it was the 331 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: ball was heavy, you know what? He was on the 332 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: left hash yeah, and he hooks everything. Yeah, and then 333 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: he adjusted and well, if you know that, then he 334 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: should know that he adjusted, and then he nearly missed 335 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: an extra point to the right at the end. By 336 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: the way, I sat there and I went, oh he 337 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 1: missed it. Yeah, because he was like, oh, he have 338 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: no big deal, like, oh shoot. Now the third possession, 339 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 1: they moved to third and one at the forty, they 340 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:30,120 Speaker 1: got an eight yard run by Pollard holding on Lale Collins, 341 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: and Troy made it even worse. He said, well, yeah, 342 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: there had to be a reason why that hole was 343 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: so wide open on that side, right, and I'm going, 344 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: can't be good blocking. Oh, he's a blocky. Can't be 345 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 1: good blocking. So then you punt and they drive for 346 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: a touchdown and it's like oh and the next possession, 347 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: another hold on first and ten on Schultz. So either 348 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: they got to figure out why they're getting called for 349 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: holding and now you know why they were basically so upset, 350 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: and worst of all, worst of all, the next time 351 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 1: they get the ball, they score a touchdown and they 352 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: lose Michael Gallop for the rest of Yeah, man, was 353 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: that crazy? Wha the play weather play? There's the first 354 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: half and what was it at a halftime? Thirteen seven 355 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: thirteen seven? Because they came back and say, take a 356 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: fifty three yard field and the half thanks to that 357 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 1: five yard offsides on on DeMarcus Lawrence. So it's just weird. 358 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: But they there. But again, you have to be good 359 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 1: enough to overcome those things and offensively they were all right. 360 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 1: You have more mix shots? Oh, I got a bunch. Yeah, 361 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 1: when we come back on mix shots, there are more 362 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: mix shots to come.

Back back to Mick Shots and Mick 400 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 1: Shots continues. If you didn't get the memo the Cowboys 401 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: playing on Saturday night this week against the Philadelphia Eagles 402 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: game that was flexed late last night Sunday, Ronnie Coleman stretchers. 403 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 1: I knew they were going to be Saturday games, but 404 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: I thought they had already been scheduled. It did late 405 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: last night. Oh, Cowboys are playing Saturday night. Okay wow, 406 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: which probably sets the stage for the Cowboys playing on 407 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: Saturday night next week. I think that's exactly what they 408 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: had in mind. They knew that Philadelphia the game was 409 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,719 Speaker 1: important to them for seating. Uh, and that got rid 410 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 1: of the Cowboys importance for seating because although if they win, 411 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: then well in LA or whoever is the winner in 412 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 1: the NFCED West, they better win otherwise they'll get in 413 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 1: a tie with the Cowboys for the second seed, right right? Well, 414 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: who they have? Uh? The Rams place Francisco, and San 415 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: Francisco needs to win because they're trying to hold off 416 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 1: New Orleans. New Orleans plays Atlanta, So if New Orleans wins, 417 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: then San Francisco has to win to make the playoffs, 418 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: and the Rams have to win Arizona's play in Seattle. 419 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,199 Speaker 1: If Arizona wins, the Rams have to beat San Francisco 420 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: in order to win the division and have that by 421 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: We're not a bye, but the home field in the 422 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 1: first round and the loser in that scenario, Arizona, I think, 423 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: has the tiebreaker in the division run. That's what I mean. 424 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: That's what I mean. That's why the Rams have to 425 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 1: have to play to win to win the division. And uh, well, 426 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: Arizona if if if the Rams win, Arizona has the 427 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: fifth seed, right and uh but if the Rams lose 428 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: in Arizona wins, Arizona becomes uh one of the top 429 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: four seeds and um, and the Rams would be the 430 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: fifth seed. For the Cowboys perspective, Um, Okay, this is 431 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:08,400 Speaker 1: why yesterday was I mean, they had everything right there 432 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: for there they lost more than the second game, yes 433 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 1: they did. Yes, I don't know if even the players 434 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,719 Speaker 1: on the team realized how much they lost. I think 435 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 1: they do. You know, when you when you look at 436 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: the scenario, because Tampa Bay came back in one, because 437 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: the Rams came back and won against Baltimore yesterday. Now, 438 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,160 Speaker 1: what what has to happen for the Cowboys to get 439 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: back to that number two seed is they've got to 440 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: beat Philadelphia and Tampa Bay has to lose to Carolina. 441 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 1: And the way Tampa Bay is playing, you never know, 442 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 1: you know, and and the Rams would have to lose 443 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: to San Francisco then they get right back up there. 444 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 1: But if you don't know, no hold on. If the 445 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: Rams lose to the forty nine ers and Tampa and 446 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: Arizona wins, they're gonna win that division. Arizona is yeah, right, 447 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: So the Rams are out and the Cowboys can't win 448 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 1: a tiebreaker with Arizona because they got beat But if 449 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay three, that's what I'm saying, they got to be. 450 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: Both of those have to happen for the Cowboys to 451 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: move up to the two seed. They would have to 452 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: have um whichever the West winner would would have to lose, okay, 453 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: and Tampa Bay has to lose. Now, and here's the 454 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: other part of that is okay. Let's say the Rams 455 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: um lose and and Arizona wins. Okay, if Tampa Bay loses, 456 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if the Cowboys cannot move up to 457 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: the number two seeds because okay. So if or if 458 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 1: or if Tampa Bay loses and the other the winner, 459 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: the Rams win, whatever, the Cowboys still are not going 460 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: to be able if if the higher seated teams win 461 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 1: in the wild card round, they will not be able 462 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: to avoid either going on the road to Green Bay 463 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: in the divisional playoff round or on the road to 464 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: say Tampa Bay. And just a weather note, when that 465 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: game started yesterday in Green Bay, it was ten degrees. Yeah, 466 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: but the wind was good, not feel like, yeah, there's 467 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: no chill, just ten I mean ten degrees. So it 468 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: was it was a devastating loss as far as the 469 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 1: playoffs skill, It really was. Bill. That's why I was 470 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: so disappointed. And I know that they know this, especially 471 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: those in the leadership positions on the team. They know 472 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: where we were headed. This is something that was calculated out. 473 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I thought that the coaching staff was doing 474 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: a good job of understanding where they were and how 475 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: they could potentially finish. And I know they were optimistic 476 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 1: about this before yesterday's game. That's what makes it so disappoined. 477 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: So what do the Cowboys do as far as the 478 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 1: way they approached this game against Philadelphia? It being the 479 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: Kansas City plays Denver the afternoon, but it's the first 480 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: of the NFC games this weekend, so they don't have 481 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: any idea what's happening with the other ones. How do 482 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: they approach it as far as playing time for Dak 483 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 1: and everybody, And I'll guarantee you that went into this 484 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: decision too, because the NFL wants everybody playing, yes, right, right, 485 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: And so maybe what they were counting on is, well, 486 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: the Cowboys can't coast. They got to play, and if 487 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 1: they win, then the other teams got to play because 488 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 1: they're still Philadelphia has clinched a playoff spot, yes they have, 489 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: So what advantage do they have of winning that game? 490 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: They can one spot? They could move up one spot, right, 491 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: because I think if they tie the Saints, the Saints 492 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: the next well San Francisco. Right now, San Francisco is 493 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: ahead of them, but if San Francisco lost to the Rams, 494 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 1: the Saints would have to beat Atlanta to get in 495 00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:00,120 Speaker 1: the playoffs. And there is a scenario where Philade if 496 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 1: you if they win this game, they can move up 497 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: one spot, right, so they would be what if they 498 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: lose if they move down one spot there, I think 499 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: they're already in the they're already in sixth seed, the seventh. Yeah, 500 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: the seventh seed. They have the seventh se seventh. Yes, 501 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: they have the seventh seed. Okay, so they're trying to 502 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: schedule things so everybody has to play. That's what's happening, right, 503 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: And I think the cow the Cowboys will think they 504 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: got a normal game. I think they got Ye. There's 505 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 1: a chance you can improve. You have to play just 506 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: the way it is. You got to take care of that, 507 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: right because how would you feel if you went out 508 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: there and said, okay, we're pulling everybody and you lose, 509 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: and then the other two teams lose. You could have 510 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: been the second. So you got to play. You can't 511 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: and you don't You want to go into the playoffs 512 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: under two game losing street and figure it out for me. 513 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: How many yet to lose two in a row after 514 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 1: winning four in a row? Right now? I don't you know? 515 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 1: Because you want a momentum, you want to be the momentum. 516 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: When you go into it, you don't. I don't like, 517 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: and I don't like offensively how we're looking as far 518 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 1: as momentum. And if you have to, who knows, you 519 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 1: might have to play Philadelphia again. You want them coming 520 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 1: in thinking, Okay, we took care of them, right, we 521 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: can beat them after they got their butts whipped the 522 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: first time around. No, you gotta win. Yeah, if you win, 523 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: if you win and things fall, I mean there's not 524 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: a great chance of it. But the Jets were leading 525 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay yesterday and San Francisco has to win against 526 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: the Rams to make the playoffs. So stranger things have happened, 527 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 1: things fall your way. On Sunday, you could be playing 528 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 1: Philadelphia's Tampa Bay, Tampa Bays playing Carolina's. Okay, said, that's 529 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: a home game. Arizona's got a home game. Um, and 530 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 1: the Rams they're all they're all three or at home. 531 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: The road is the Saints got to go to Atlanta 532 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: and we're on the road, and the Packers got to 533 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: go to the bad We just blew everything. Come on, 534 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: we were like riding high last week. That was so 535 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: much fun talking about the game and digs and now 536 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: my road to the Super Bowl instead of hosting, say 537 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: Philadelphia in the first round and then hosting a second 538 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: round game and then on the well, then a upset 539 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: occurs and you're host of the NFC Championship game. The 540 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: road now became hosting the Cardinals or the Rams, going 541 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 1: on the road to Green Bay and then going on 542 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: the road to Tampa Bay. And you know that's what's 543 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: gonna happen. The Green Bay part. Oh yeah, green Bay's happen. Yeah, 544 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: no doubt about it. Or you're going on the road 545 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 1: for the NFC Championship game to LA and you gotta say, guys, 546 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: I think they played better on the road. Well, see, 547 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: that was weird. All last week I kept hearing about 548 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: this home field advantage, how the Cowboys win at home? 549 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: And I'm going they lost two three games at home? 550 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 1: How many was it they lost to Denver the Raiders here, 551 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 1: So the worst losses were home? Yeah, okay, they scored 552 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: a lot of points, right, ye throw the fifties the 553 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: worst losses at home ever since. I got a question 554 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: for you. As a former player. Let's say you played 555 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 1: for the Green Bay Packers, Okay, okay, and you had 556 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: the opportunity to win home field advantage throughout the playoffs. 557 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,360 Speaker 1: Would you want to play in ten degree weather in 558 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 1: the playoffs or would you rather just go ahead and play? Well, 559 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. We'll have the choice. They will 560 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,320 Speaker 1: go ahead and play at your place. How's that? I 561 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: gotta say, if it was up to me, yeah, that's 562 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 1: to you, just to me, just then, I would love 563 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,399 Speaker 1: to play in warm a weather, but indoors and oh yeah, 564 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 1: no doubt bad, But that's fine. We'll come to your 565 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 1: place and beat you there. Yeah, and that has happened. 566 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: People have come to our place and beating us. Yeah, 567 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: I mean it happens more than one more Texas Stadium 568 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: and kicked out buttons. I'm watching the game last night. 569 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 1: I'm wondering the Packers players mind, why would they want 570 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 1: to play? I must say, though I felt playing in 571 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 1: New York playing with the Giants, I felt extremely comfortable, 572 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 1: even though I was freezing my testicles off. Everyone around 573 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:29,959 Speaker 1: me and the environment itself was extremely favorable for the team. 574 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,399 Speaker 1: I hated it because I'm from Dallas. Okay, this ain't 575 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: my thing, but the entire atmosphere was still what you 576 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 1: want for a playoff game. Put in personal this comfort aside. Yeah, right, 577 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: here's my point. How many times, like Green Bay, how 578 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,800 Speaker 1: many times do they play when it's below thirty degrees 579 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,720 Speaker 1: at home during the season? Twice? Maybe not that mud? Okay, 580 00:35:56,160 --> 00:36:01,359 Speaker 1: and do you think not until January? And everybody says, yeah, 581 00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 1: well they lived there, they're used to it. I go, 582 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: but they practice indoors. Same thing with the Giants, right, 583 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 1: you practice doors? Right? Oh? Oh no, no, no, back then, no, 584 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,800 Speaker 1: there is no such thing as no. We just practice. 585 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 1: We actually practiced in the stadium in the state. But 586 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:21,799 Speaker 1: then they built an outdoor that's on the bubble things. So, yeah, 587 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: who's used to No one's used to it. No one's 588 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 1: used to playing in two feet of snow. Well, Belichick 589 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 1: makes his team, remember two years ago, last year, they 590 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 1: made them practice outdoors. Last year, two years ago, they 591 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,879 Speaker 1: made them practice outdoors. I remember the video, snow all 592 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: over the place, and they were going to be to 593 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 1: be playing outdoors. So Belichick made them practice. That was 594 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 1: two years ago, and I'll in the snow. How good 595 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,720 Speaker 1: is that practice?

What else sticks in your crawl? 638 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 1: I'm trying to every much. It's so much. Um. We 639 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 1: went over the defense, all right, right, and when by 640 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 1: the way, let's give Kyle Kyler Murray credit. He played 641 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 1: a hell of a game, right. He hit plays that 642 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 1: you know normally are fifty fifty and he was much 643 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,760 Speaker 1: more careful with the football, and he chose his spots 644 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,360 Speaker 1: when he went down the field, and he hit the throws. 645 00:39:52,080 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 1: He seemed right at home in that shield. Right. Yes, 646 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 1: I just when I look at the team, I go 647 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: back to the sense of urgency and I get it. 648 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: We've got once again, the game plan is put together 649 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,680 Speaker 1: in particular fashion. I get that. But there are times 650 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 1: you just have to play from your gut. There are 651 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:21,439 Speaker 1: times when you have to step away from the game plan. 652 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 1: And just like we talked about at the Turing thing 653 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 1: with on the pregame Saturday, you know, like when Jimmy 654 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 1: Johnson said, don't take the foot off the gas. Yeah right, 655 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:36,920 Speaker 1: we got to have that attitude. Sometimes bacts and I 656 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: don't mean in a panic sort of way. I mean 657 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 1: we have to force the issue. And I don't mean 658 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: an issue that's at a turtle's pace. I'm talking about 659 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 1: an issue that's going to make you have to think quicker. 660 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 1: It's going that that could cause the defenders and the 661 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: opposition to be off balance. You can't do that by 662 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,800 Speaker 1: being meticulous. You have to do that by being urgent. 663 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 1: And I was at the game, I've been at the 664 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 1: last two games. There is a lack of urgency in 665 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:10,959 Speaker 1: this game plan, in the way we play sometimes offensively, 666 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:14,800 Speaker 1: and it always seems to be while we're playing at home. 667 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 1: And once again I'm telling you, as a player, you 668 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 1: have got to open that thing up. And I don't 669 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 1: mean from an adeliup standpoint, meaning the quarterback got chase 670 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 1: out of the pocket, then he went deep to gallop 671 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 1: and all that. I mean we need to have more 672 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:32,959 Speaker 1: plays down the field, and we need to trust our 673 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 1: quarterbacks on because here's the thing. You can't the timing 674 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 1: of throwing a deep pass. It doesn't just come to you. 675 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,839 Speaker 1: It has to be worked on in all types of situations. 676 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:48,240 Speaker 1: We have not tested Dak Prescott's deep throwing abilities nearly 677 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:50,360 Speaker 1: as much as we should have because it would be 678 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 1: to our advantage. Number One potential passing affairs calls. They 679 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,400 Speaker 1: mentioned that against the Raiders that they should have done it, 680 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,600 Speaker 1: and I still think that to continue to do that. 681 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 1: That observation was spot on by Dak and they need 682 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: to follow that up as the season goes on. Did 683 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 1: you like Cedric Wilson throwing deep? I did. I did 684 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 1: do that in the first series, and you saw how 685 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 1: they set that up. Yes, yep, with the same same 686 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: series and tossed it out to them on a traditional 687 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 1: wide rast. And once again I'll qualiter back and do 688 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 1: the same thing. We don't have to be tricked. We 689 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,919 Speaker 1: have tricks to go deep. We can just go deep. 690 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,320 Speaker 1: We talk about Cede Lamb, we talk about Coop, we 691 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: talked about now not Galla, but Cedric can go deep 692 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 1: as well. We've seen it. Let's continue to do that. 693 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:40,760 Speaker 1: How much has the inability to establish a vertical passing 694 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 1: game been affected by the inability to run league football directly? 695 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 1: Twelve carries for twenty five yards in the second half 696 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 1: of that game. The running backs had two carries for 697 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: zero yards. They did it. If you can't, if you 698 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 1: can't do it by running, then let's open up the 699 00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: passing place. Let's open up the passing game. If you 700 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 1: can't do it by running, if the safeties are down 701 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:08,799 Speaker 1: tight because we can't run the ball, then we need 702 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 1: to at least give them the thought of being having 703 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,839 Speaker 1: to cover that deep round. Well, you know what they've 704 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,360 Speaker 1: done to go deep, don't you. They line up in 705 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 1: too tight information to be able to block it. Because 706 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:24,320 Speaker 1: the amount of pressure they were bringing. The Cowboys A 707 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 1: weren't picking up the extra guy or B. They they 708 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 1: they were overwhelmed with too many and the one play 709 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 1: that ended up getting them, and it was significant. Isaiah 710 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 1: Simmons came in and was it Pollard was z did 711 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,440 Speaker 1: a nice job, busted the guy off, but then he 712 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 1: circled back around and when Dak went to run, he 713 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 1: came back, doubled, bashed it out, punched it out. Uh. 714 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:56,840 Speaker 1: And look what they did is similar to what Denver did. Similar, 715 00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 1: you know, And that's what they're going to keep seeing. Yeah, 716 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,479 Speaker 1: the same thing with the Saints. They're gonna they're gonna 717 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 1: put guys on the line of scrimmage. They're gonna come 718 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,320 Speaker 1: after you. You either got to hit the hot receiver 719 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,400 Speaker 1: and there's gotta be one over the middle. Uh. And 720 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 1: you know they were some using Schultz right, uh and 721 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,360 Speaker 1: doing a nice job. But again some of the blocking 722 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,680 Speaker 1: in the in the running game, the tight ends aren't 723 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,799 Speaker 1: doing a good job. They tried to they set up 724 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 1: the was that the first series when they tried to 725 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:30,800 Speaker 1: throw the little screen with McGovern out there with the 726 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 1: tight end and the wide receiver, Sprinkle just let Buddha 727 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:38,400 Speaker 1: Baker come running right by. He looked and he didn't 728 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 1: do anything. Then he picked up somebody else. It's like, no, 729 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 1: you should have picked up the first guy, right. And 730 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 1: at times Schultz gets thrown to the side in blocking 731 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 1: they need to use. He's somebody two years ago. He 732 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 1: never let those things happen. I don't know, amazing how 733 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 1: he's he's gone, He's he's jawing now. You know, he's 734 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:00,840 Speaker 1: the guy that's nifty down the field catching the passes, 735 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 1: but he's not the guy that's making those key blocks. 736 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:05,719 Speaker 1: I mean, there are times when we need him to 737 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 1: hold that guy off because it's essential to the succession 738 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 1: of the play. And they must not like what McEwan's 739 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 1: been doing because he had been out there when he 740 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 1: got back and in this game the two tight ends 741 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 1: were Sprinkle and he might be on his way back. Yeah, 742 00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 1: that performance, but he could be back here. You know, 743 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,719 Speaker 1: you say, ye got two tight ends in here because 744 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,360 Speaker 1: we're gonna block and go heavy, But I don't know 745 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 1: how well they block. You only need two guys going deep. 746 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 1: If you give me two wide receivers going deep, that's 747 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,399 Speaker 1: all I need. I need to try this arm out. 748 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 1: I need us to be more adept at going deep. 749 00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: You can't just all of a sudden say all right, guys, 750 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 1: the playoffs is here, we're gonna open it up. We 751 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:49,359 Speaker 1: have to have a dress rehearsal. I have not seen 752 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 1: that yet. And the other teams there, I see their 753 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:56,840 Speaker 1: safeties make plays. The Cowboys safety curse brought up. Office 754 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,320 Speaker 1: should have had the interception in the right that was 755 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 1: three points, by the way. Yeah, but the time Diggs 756 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 1: got beat, where's the safety there? Casey was like ten 757 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,919 Speaker 1: yards away from the play. The corner's gonna get beat. 758 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,280 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. And you know they say, oh, he gambles 759 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:18,080 Speaker 1: too much. Well, he didn't gamble. The guy stuttered and 760 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 1: he stopped and then he took off and he didn't 761 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,319 Speaker 1: take off fast enough. And hey, look, if you want 762 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,440 Speaker 1: to get interceptions, then you gotta try to make some plays, right, okay, 763 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:28,880 Speaker 1: and that that's gonna happen. But I need a safety 764 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,760 Speaker 1: back there to help me out. You know, Donovan Wilson 765 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:36,840 Speaker 1: made a great play in the open field tackle that 766 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 1: I can't remember. Saw that it was a run player 767 00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:41,759 Speaker 1: dumped it over the middle. Yes, I was like, oh, 768 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 1: he got no shot here and he nailed the guy. 769 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 1: But other than that, the safeties don't make plays other 770 00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 1: than Kate Kate jay Ron. But he's close to the 771 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:55,840 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. But in coverage that sometime the corner 772 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 1: needs help and they don't get it. And when they 773 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 1: don't get takeaways, there's your twenty five points. Somebody said, 774 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:06,759 Speaker 1: well they only held they held him with twenty five points, 775 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 1: you should win. It's like, well, no, if you hold 776 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,359 Speaker 1: them the seventeen, you should win. Right, If you hold 777 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,880 Speaker 1: them to twenty, you should win. If you hold them 778 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:17,720 Speaker 1: to nineteen, you should Well, they say that spact because 779 00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:20,759 Speaker 1: they think that the offense is a special offense and 780 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:24,080 Speaker 1: we just haven't shown that, not in the last four games. 781 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 1: That's correct, well three out of four games, yeah, right exactly, 782 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 1: all right, Well that does it for a Monday Slash 783 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 1: Tuesday edition. The thing were consistent, So didn't hear much 784 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 1: from Bill today. Different. He was back at it. He 785 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 1: was back at it tomorrow, rights Wednesday. For the team, 786 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 1: I would imagine they can't go to light this week. Yeah, 787 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:49,319 Speaker 1: they get get the practice in pads they might need. 788 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 1: Are they done? Are they have they used up their 789 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 1: pad days? I thought they had one. Think they have 790 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 1: one left. I think they got one left. Yeah, Okay, 791 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 1: this might be the week you need to get guys going. 792 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: We'll see if you get an extra job. But it's 793 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,960 Speaker 1: a short week, so you know, to see all kind 794 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 1: of excuses not to be aggressive. That's us. We're so delicate, 795 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:12,400 Speaker 1: all right. Well you know Mickey and Everson won't be 796 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,919 Speaker 1: delicate tomorrow when we can vene again for another edition 797 00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 1: A mix shot. I still say Gold Cowboys. This has 798 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,960 Speaker 1: been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the 799 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:24,719 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
