I know 25 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: McCray is because he's enjoying the raise somewhere. So let's 26 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: get it, popping, big dog.

Okay, 28 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: I'm straight up, I'm going after you because you've been 29 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: all about Garrett Gilbert, the guy you like to call 30 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: Double G. Double G's last Double G's last stand is 31 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: this weekend. And I'm telling you right now, give me 32 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush. Give me Cooper Rush to finish as the 33 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: backup quarterback, because I believe they aren't gonna keep you. 34 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: You're gonna cut into Nucci all right after that pick three. 35 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I just I've been saying all along, I 36 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: hadn't been sold on Dnucci four minute. As far as 37 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: making this football team, I think they keep two quarterbacks. 38 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: Obviously is Dak Prescott and one other guy who knows 39 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: the offense, and right now you got to give me 40 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush. Okay, the statistics right here are all Cooper side. 41 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: You look at this now, ten possessions, sixty six percent 42 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: completion percentage all right, a quarterback rating a one or 43 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: two point five, no interceptions, two touchdowns. He was ten 44 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: or twelve or ninety seven yards with two tds against Houston. Meanwhile, 45 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: your boy Double G has got three starts and seven possessions. 46 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: He's got a quarterback rating at seventy four point nine percent, 47 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: fifty six percent passing completions overall, no touchdowns, no i nts. 48 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: He was three or five for thirty yards against the 49 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: Texans with a fumble. Come on, man, you know Cooper 50 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: Rush is looking better. Just admitute your boy, your boy 51 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: Double G got problems right now. I don't think you're 52 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 1: gonna make it. Here we go again with the with 53 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: the Double G slander. I mean, this is beyond me 54 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: right now. First let me let me point on. Let 55 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: me get up point on the Nucci right now, the Nucci. 56 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: The Nucci's out the game, all right, the Ducci. That 57 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: might have been the worst display of quarterbacking you know, 58 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: I might have ever seen in my career as a 59 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: as a player, and now in this media thing that 60 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 1: that was just downright horrendous. I'm not even sure his 61 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: Picksburgh connection with McCarthy can save him for the practice squad. 62 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 1: So that's that's the Nucci right there. But when we 63 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: get the double G in this Cooper Rush quote unquote battle, 64 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: everybody seems to forget Cooper Rush has done. He's a 65 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: preseason darling. He did the same thing in twenty seventeen. 66 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: He played great in the preseason when he's going against 67 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: you know, twos or a sprinkle of ones here and there, 68 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: but not the whole starting lineup. And we're gonna we're 69 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: we're basing this off of this Houston game where Houston 70 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: got all types of shambles going around new coaching staff. 71 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: They they don't brought in about thirty new players overall. 72 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: So I'm not taking Houston's defense. What Cooper Cooper Rush 73 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: was able to dissect out there, I'm not saying he's 74 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: gonna be able to do that during a regular season. Now, 75 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: we do have a guy in Garrett Gilbert who's proven 76 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: that when he goes out there in regular season games, 77 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: he can make things a competition. I mean, we've seen 78 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: him go out there and dissect the pitch Furst Siller's defense, 79 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: But when has Cooper Rush ever done that? When has 80 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: Rush ever done that? I'm talking about when coaches are 81 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: making adjustments to what you're doing throughout the game. We've 82 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 1: yet to see this is vanilla defense that Cooper Rush 83 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: is going against. When teams see, okay, he loves it, 84 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: ceedee lamb on third down. Let me go ahead and 85 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: get these defensive adjustments to make Cooper Rush go through 86 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: his progressions. We've yet to see that. He's a preseason darling. 87 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: And so we're gonna say, we're gonna sit here and 88 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: say Cooper Rush is a bona fide backup because he 89 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: was able to go in one preseason game against a 90 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: Houston Texans defense that's in shambles, and we're gonna say 91 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: he's ready to be that backup. Are you are you? 92 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: Are you a hundred percent confident? You're one hundred percent 93 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: confident that Cooper Rush Dack went down. Cooper Rushing go 94 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: out there and write this ship, there's way give me 95 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush. All I know is you Okay. I was 96 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: out there at training camp. We saw Dak go down 97 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: and you're giving Garrett good, but all the opportunity needs 98 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: to run with the ones. Here's a dress rehearsal on 99 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: Saturday against the Houston team that none of us expect 100 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: to be good. He did not look good. Here comes 101 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: Cooper Rushing here and he's moving to football. Cooper Rush 102 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: was dealing with some injuries a little bit in camp here, 103 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: but just overall I've seen here and I'm saying, Okay, 104 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: that's the guy who made the team a couple of 105 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: years ago, who had some nice preseasons, and maybe he's 106 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: coming around here healthy. They were talking about on Talking Cowboys, 107 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: a previous podcast right here on Dallas Cowboys dot com. 108 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: I'm just telling you right now, give me Cooper Rush. 109 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: I bore a book. You know how I feel. Ultimately, 110 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 1: the backup quarterback and Cowboys needs is not on this roster. Okay, 111 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: neither of these three guys or the answer for me. 112 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: But I do believe when cut down day comes, you're 113 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 1: only gonna keep two. You'll keep that Prescott, and then 114 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: you'll keep a quarterback who knows the system. Because if 115 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 1: you bring someone in, unless it's gonna be Brett Hunley 116 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: or somebody that Mike McCarthy's worked within the past. There's 117 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: going to be a quarterback who doesn't fully understand the offense. 118 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: Having somebody that understands the offense is going to be key. 119 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: So this backup quarterback that they keep being Rush or Gilbert, 120 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: it's going to be somebody that's gonna be around here 121 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: for a minute in my opinion. But I'm just telling you, 122 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: I think your boy double G is done. Okay, So 123 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: I wantell you with Cooper Rush. I want to see 124 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush with the first team. You well, they ain't 125 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 1: gonna have a first team because McCarthy was saying he 126 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: started to get So if that's it, you go ahead, 127 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: give me Cooper Rush. If this is all we're gonna get, Okay, 128 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: they give me Cooper Rush right now? How about that? So, 129 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: so you're telling me so the next week don't even matter. 130 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: This Sunday, this Sunday matchup against Jacksonville doesn't even matter. 131 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: It's already Cooper Rushes. Is that what you're saying, Louis, 132 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: He'll throw them out there and he's gonna you know, 133 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: they're both gonna have to deal with some backup players. 134 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you right now, I saw enough from 135 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush and tells me, yes, I'll go with Cooper 136 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 1: Rushi and this wild and barry you. He's already served 137 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: in this role before. Granted he didn't play, but he 138 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: at least no role and he knows how to do this. 139 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: He's never played in the regular season, Like, I need 140 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: to see what he can do when when these coaches 141 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: are putting adjustments on him and he has to go 142 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: through these progressions, He's running for his life out there. 143 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: I'm not saying Cooper Rush is a downright to He's 144 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: nowhere near as bad as the Nucci. I'm just saying 145 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: on talent alone, I think Gilbert has more upset that 146 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: when we get into the live bullets, when coaches are 147 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: making adjustments, when he has to scramble around go through 148 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: his progressions by time in the pocket, I'm not thinking 149 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: that Cooper Rush can do that. I mean, I think 150 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: he's a preseason darling and that's where he makes his 151 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: That's where he makes his bones at people are like, 152 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: oh man, you see Texas to first off, he was 153 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: never a preseason darling. He is just a guy. I mean, 154 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: it was ever a jag walking around Rush. Just you 155 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: want to see the Darling. You watch Hard Dog, you 156 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: think Ben d Nucci was really good. Okay, that's well, 157 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: that's how hard That's just fun that thing. You're thinking, 158 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: this guy's like a decent quarterback and he's terrible. So uh, Cooper. 159 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: Cooper's no Darling at all. But I'm just saying right now, 160 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: I believe in it, and I just think it's it's 161 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: gonna be all good. By the way, shout out to 162 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: the album Mater got my Pembroke baseball hat on here. 163 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: We were inspired by the Pirates of Pittsburgh as we 164 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: got our hat here.

Smith's album Modern Football September four, 168 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: We're gonna lay it on him one more time here. 169 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: So so we're in the wroke. Prior today, I thought 170 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: mister Salem was pretty good at football, or what I 171 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: was in the past. Hey man, you know they've come 172 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: down and they've taken us on before we're given We've 173 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: given them Nework before, so we've already beaten them before. 174 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: So it's been a good rivalry through the years. So, um, 175 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 1: you know to to North Carolina schools getting after it's 176 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: in the D two levels. So so I'm all about that, 177 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: all about that, all right? So you and I are 178 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: different here on the backup quarterback situation, but can't we 179 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: both agree the backup quarterback the Cowboys need is not 180 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: on the trust. Yeah, the need something that because if 181 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: that goes down, Like, I love my boy Gilbert, but 182 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: I just haven't seen enough after that Steller's game to 183 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: be like he's gonna take us the way. I mean, 184 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: he might win us a couple of games, but we'll 185 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: be in the same situation we were in last year 186 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: if that were to ever go down. Let me ask 187 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: you a question, though, Nui, let me ask you a 188 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: question though. I was watching that Chargers game last night 189 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: and the young boy Easton Easton Stick, I think his 190 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: name is the one that's backing up Herbert right now. 191 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: If they release Chase Daniel, who is like battling for 192 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: that backup spot with Stick, do you see him as 193 00:09:55,080 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: an option here for the Dallas Cowboys because they like 194 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,559 Speaker 1: Stick out there, and he looked like he was playing 195 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: pretty well in that Chargers offense. So if they don't 196 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: keep chasing, I mean he's a career backup, that's what 197 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: he does. You think there's an option for the boys 198 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: south Lake Carrol's own Chase Daniel. By the way, we 199 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: might we might get a discount like Andy Dalton, you know, 200 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: coming back on the Texas. What do you want that one? 201 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: Parcels used to have a great line and when he 202 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: called guys jacks just a guy. So you asked about 203 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: a guy like Chase Daniels and parcelsmans and he's just 204 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: a jack? Well, Bill, what does that means? He's just 205 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: a guy? I can find it. I can find three 206 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 1: more guys like that. So if you're bringing Chase Daniel, 207 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: is he this much better than the guys you have here? 208 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: And he doesn't know the system? He does he with Kembell? 209 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: So that that that's that's the question. So I'm thinking, 210 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: if I'm going to bring in a quarterback, UM, I'd 211 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: like to think you're bringing in someone who's Okay, I'll 212 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: give you a guy. Let's go to Pittsburgh. That Josh Dobbs. 213 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: We saw a little bit of Josh Hobbs the Hall 214 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: of Fame game. There's a guy that to me is 215 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: intrigued because I'm thinking about who's a backup quarterback that 216 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 1: you can put in this system and have them grow 217 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: over a couple of years. Some of our older Cowboy 218 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: fans can remember back in the day when Matt Moore 219 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: was trying to make this club and he had some 220 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: nice preseason games and they tried to cut him and 221 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: slide him through and he got gobbled up. And Matt 222 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: Moore went on to have a really nice NFL career. 223 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,599 Speaker 1: And I think it almost positive he was on that 224 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: Kansas City team that won a Super Bowl with Mahoons 225 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: know he was on and so yeah, yeah, yeah, he 226 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,599 Speaker 1: was a backup. I know he was on one of 227 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: those Kansas City teams and they went to the super Bowl, 228 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 1: but I think he was on the team that won 229 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: him But just that's what that's to me, that's what 230 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: your hope is if you can bring in a backup 231 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: and and groom the guy. And Josh Dobb as a 232 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: kid who I thought through the years has had that 233 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,319 Speaker 1: kind of ability. They just got a lot of quarterbacks there. Obviously, 234 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 1: you got a starter in Ben Roethlisberger, who's going to 235 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: be the guy. You got Mason Rudolph back there. They 236 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: picked up Dwayne Haskins, a former first round pick in Washington. 237 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: So that leads a guy like Josh Dobbs. I mean, 238 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: they're not gonna keep four quarterbacks. Okay, Pittsburgh's not gonna 239 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 1: do it. You know, they may try to slide one 240 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 1: of the guys on the sixteen man practice squad. But 241 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: if I'm the Cowboys and I see a guy like 242 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: Dobbs out there, to me, that's where I would like 243 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: to go. If I'm if I'm a general manager who's 244 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 1: a young guy with some athletic ability whose game mirrors 245 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott that I could eventually work with and get 246 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 1: him up to where I wanted him to be. They 247 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: tried to do that in Green Bay with a Brett 248 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: Huntley didn't really work out, and when Brett got his 249 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: chance out there, just he just couldn't handle it, and 250 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,599 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy brought him in and so they hated and 251 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: sign him. But that's to me, that's what I'm thinking of. 252 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: A guy that's going to be released and I say, Okay, 253 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: where's a possible upgrade. That's the kind a player that 254 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: I'm thinking of. That's that's just one quarterback. And look, 255 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: you know other people may have guys they life, but 256 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,679 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking that's one that's just one player and 257 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: one team that I watched it, like, man, they got 258 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: four dudes. Oh those four guys ain't gonna make it. 259 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: Is there a guy out here that I could bring in? 260 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: I'll tell you this, I damn sure rather have Josh 261 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: Jobs on my practice squad than Ben the nunci No, 262 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: without a doubt, what out left doubt? Man? You know 263 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: you don't believe. I ain't gonna keep piling on them, 264 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,839 Speaker 1: but you know I love the fact you does. He 265 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: I don't even know if Dobbs still has any practice 266 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: squad eligibility, but if he could, oh that is true 267 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: A ten plus it's a ten plus six squad, PAM 268 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: ten plus six. So yeah, so you can get him 269 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: on there. Yeah, I mean I could definitely see that because, 270 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: like you said, I mean, whoever wins this double g 271 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: or Cooper Rush, whoever wins this quote unquote quarterback battle 272 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,679 Speaker 1: for the backup spot. I think that I tend to 273 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: agree with you on this one. I just don't think 274 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: they got what it takes to if anything catastrophic were 275 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,839 Speaker 1: to happen and they had to step in and they 276 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: were our quarterback for the rest of the season. I 277 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: just feel like we would be in the same spot. 278 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: And it's just interesting that we didn't address this position 279 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 1: in the off season when we had plenty of time 280 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: to snag up a Dwayne Haskins or or you know, 281 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: or get get somebody else like that. That can be 282 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: a legit backup because now, man, we're heading into the 283 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: season and we're in a predicament, man, because let's just 284 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: say something, you know, God forbid, but something crazy happens 285 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: to that throwing shoulder of Dak Prescott and we gotta 286 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: throw a couple of these dudes in. We're in trouble. 287 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: We're in trouble, man. So we'll see, man, we'll see. 288 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: But I don't think this quarterback is on our roster 289 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: as we speak right now. Okay, But Mike McCarthy, the 290 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: head coach, and said it's not over. So a position 291 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: battle that many of us thought that was gonna go 292 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: Gilbert's way, it's now open. Cooper Russians entered into that 293 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: after the twenteen and fourteen loss the Cowboys suffered to 294 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars Newi Scruggs. It's Arry Church Players Lounge. 295 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 1: This is Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio. Now let me 296 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: go to another topic here that we talked about it 297 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 1: a little bit here and we saw it. We got 298 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: to see a little bit more because this was the 299 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: dress rehearsal game, all right, the final preseason game against Jacksonville. 300 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 1: Mike mccarthur, the head coach, it's come out and told 301 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: you because it's going to be a game for the 302 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: younger guys, guys trying to make the team, guys on 303 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: the bubble, they're not going to run out the Dak 304 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: Prescotts and Zekiel Elliots and Tank Lawrences. These starters are 305 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: not playing in this game. So what we saw the 306 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: Cowboys come out against Houston and their linebackers nickel package. Okay, 307 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: so we just two linebackers out there, and that was 308 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: Micah Parsons, the rookie they drafted twelfth overall out of 309 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: Penn State, and Keyan O'Neil, the converted safety who's now 310 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: a linebacker who played for Dan Quinn on that Super 311 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: Bowl team. Those were the two guys that were out there, 312 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: Not Jalen Smith, not Laton vander Esh They're getting ready 313 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: to face an incredible Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense to start 314 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: the season. A nickel package to start would be very 315 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 1: smart because they got a lot of weapons on that 316 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: football team that Tom Brady's got access to. And so 317 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: your thoughts on Parsons and Keyan O'Neill out there's the 318 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: nickel to start the game. Look, I'm not gonna lie 319 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: to you, knew you. I love it. I love the situation. 320 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: We got that linebacker. I think we got great depth, 321 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: and I think these coaches got the right two guys 322 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: out there in this nickel package. Now, is Keyan O'Neill 323 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: gonna be your every down linebacker against the run? I'm 324 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: not so sure right now. He's he's you know, he's 325 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: progressing in the right way. Pro Football Focus has him 326 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: rated as one of the top linebackers in the National 327 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: Football League through the preseason. He's been able to play 328 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: the run a hell of a lot better than I 329 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: thought he would transitioning from safety to linebacker. But overall, 330 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: I think this is a this is a great thing 331 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys. I mean, you've got two linebackers 332 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: who can play in space very well. And that is 333 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: what this league is going to So basically, your nickel linebackers, 334 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: they're going to be your starters. Because I mean at 335 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: least seventy percent of offenses in the National Football League, 336 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: that's their man offense. Eleven personnel, one tight end, one back, 337 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: three receivers. They love to spread people out. And what 338 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 1: happened last year to us, especially our linebacking corps, is 339 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: we got exposed. We got exposed against the interior as 340 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: far as past concepts and routes coming out of the backfield. 341 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: We got exposed because our linebackers were not solid in 342 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: coverage and teams were picking us apart with that. And 343 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: Tom Brady is one of the masterminds of Dickon and 344 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 1: Duncan looking at matchups and express or exposing those matchups. 345 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 1: So when you got a Parsons and Keyan O'Neil, I 346 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: think the only thing that might weary you as a 347 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: as a as a defense is how are they going 348 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 1: to hold up against the run. We've seen Parsons, He's 349 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: able to do it without a doubt. He's throwing line 350 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 1: and all over the place. He's popping off your screen. 351 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: This guy is a bona fide star at linebacker. Can 352 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: Keyan O'Neil do that same thing. I'm not so sure, 353 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: but we'll find out. But coverage wise, I think we 354 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: are set at with those two at the nickel linebacker position. 355 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: One thing that's kind of bothering me though about that 356 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,120 Speaker 1: is the rotation, because if you looked at it, those 357 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: were are two linebackers in nickel. And then when bass 358 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: came in, which is twelve or twenty one personnel, which 359 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: is a heavy run personnel for offenses, here comes in 360 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: vander esh and Jalen Smith and as the game progresses. 361 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:17,239 Speaker 1: One's it's gonna be extremely hard to disguise that, you know, 362 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 1: or when they're coming in, they must think we're gonna 363 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: run a ball. That's gonna be hard to disguise that rotation. 364 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: And two, how are your linebackers gonna get acclimated to 365 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: the game. How are they gonna get in a rhythm? 366 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 1: How are they going to see how this offense is playing? 367 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 1: Calling they like to do this on third down, I'd 368 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: like to do this on first and second down. It's 369 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: gonna be hard for that because it's not the defensive line. 370 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: Defensive line, you gotta have a rotation. Those are big 371 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: guys banging every single play, but as linebackers, you kind 372 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: of gotta get used to the play. You gotta get 373 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 1: your rhythm gone, just like in the secondary, and it's 374 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 1: gonna be extremely hard if that's the rotation. I doubt 375 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: it will be. They have to have two set linebackers 376 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: I doubt will be coming in and out for Bass 377 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: and Nickel. But if they do go that route with 378 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 1: that rotation, it's gonna be extremely hard for these linebackers 379 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: to get a rhythm and be effective in every down 380 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 1: since during the during a regular season. So this sounds 381 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: like a trust factor with the defensive coordinator dan Quinn 382 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: that you know at disappoint time, I hear what you're saying, 383 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,439 Speaker 1: and I'm just I'm just gonna come out and say, 384 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: this is where you gotta trust him. You gotta trust 385 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 1: that dan Quinn knows what he's doing, that he's got 386 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: a plan in a strategy, and that he'll be able 387 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: to implement it. But you know this, facing the Tampa 388 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers, Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, Antonio Brown, Rob Gronkowski, 389 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: O J. Howard, those five targets plus the ability of 390 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: Giovanni Bernard to come out of the backfield, and I 391 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: want to make sure fans starting to think about this. Okay, 392 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: he was in Cincinnati for a number of years and 393 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: Giovanni Bernard is if you go back and think about 394 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: what Tom Brady enjoyed when he was in Tampa in 395 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: New England, poor into Tampa Bay, a guy like James White, 396 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,400 Speaker 1: he's that kind of player, the fault kid Kevin Falk 397 00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: coming out of the backfield, who was on a championship team. 398 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 1: That's what they're going to do with the Giovanni banar. 399 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: And I think that he's going to have a big 400 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: impact for Tampa Bay in that first game. I'm telling 401 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 1: you right now, if I'm Bruce Arians and I'm Tom Brady, 402 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out, Hey, let me get some 403 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: of these linebackers in space and let me see what 404 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: I can do. Hey, Kean O'Neil, what can you do 405 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: up against the Giovanni bar Jay Leu Smith, La Vandersch, 406 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: what can you do with these with this guy coming 407 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: out of the backfield with those weapons. I'm telling you, man, 408 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: this is this is going to be a very interesting 409 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: chess chess match this first game coming around, and right now, 410 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 1: I just gotta say, Okay, let me just trust Dan Quinn. 411 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: Let's see what he see if he's gonna be able 412 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 1: to have a plan out there, because I just think 413 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a fun matchup to see what Brady 414 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: does against these linebackers. Oh, it's gonna be an amazing 415 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: chess match. And if you look at it, what does 416 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: Brady do well, Once he sees a defense that he 417 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 1: likes that he can attack, he will keep that hurry up. 418 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: He will keep that gas on the pedal to where 419 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: you can't sub out linebackers in and out. So let's 420 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 1: just say they catch Jaylen Smith and lve in a base. 421 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: They have had the receiving options with a with a 422 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,360 Speaker 1: with a Gradkowski, with the OJ Howard, with the Gio 423 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: Bonnie Bernard, with a for Neck coming out, Ronald Jones 424 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 1: coming out of the backfield to where they can they 425 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: can hurry that up and still be effective in the 426 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 1: past game. And they can make our linebackers Jala Smith 427 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 1: and l Vee if they are the linebackers coming in 428 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 1: that base, they can expose those guys. And Tom Brady 429 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: is a master, trust me. He is a master of 430 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,880 Speaker 1: catching defenses and not letting you sub guys in and out. 431 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: He will keep the gas on the pedal. And it's 432 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 1: gonna be hard if that's the case. But they have 433 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 1: to find two linebackers that they feel can play nickel 434 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: and face because I'm telling you it's gonna be extremely 435 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: hard to get in a rhythm and it's gonna be 436 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: extremely hard to disguise. I mean, you're running against Tom Brady, 437 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: who's seen pretty much every defense there is. When you 438 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: got those guys out there, he's gonna be like, oh, okay, 439 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: this is what it is. All right, let me go 440 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: ahead and pick this apart. And he's gonna keep that 441 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: put on the gas pedal, and it's gonna be hard 442 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: for his defense. Not only to mention we are interior 443 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: rush right now, No, I don't know. With the absence 444 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 1: of Neville Gallawar. We gotta have guys like Bret Urban, Bohannah, 445 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 1: you know, Olsa. Those guys need to step up because 446 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: what bothers Brady the most is that interior pressure. When 447 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: he gets that interior pressure, he kind of gets off rock. 448 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:14,919 Speaker 1: And right now, only pressure I see is coming off 449 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: the edges with d Law and Randy Gregory and Tom 450 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,239 Speaker 1: Brady he's gonna be able to step up and tear 451 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: us apart. So for me, we gotta find a solid 452 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: two linebackers, and we gotta get some guys to step 453 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 1: up in the end of the interior part of the 454 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: defensive line if we're gonna have a chance against Brady 455 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: and these bucks. You know, next time we get an 456 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,920 Speaker 1: opportunity to talk to dan quineleast game week, game week, 457 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask him how personal is this?

Give 519 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: me give me a breakdown of this because I'm gonna 520 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:12,440 Speaker 1: probably have to end up taking my god daughter and 521 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: my youngest to go see this. I'm telling you, Paw 522 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: Patrol is an extremely solid movie. I mean for all ages. 523 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: You know, I got my kids watching it and it 524 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 1: was great. I mean, it shows you life lessons and 525 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: I mean great graphics out there. I mean, and if 526 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: you do watch the Paw Patrol regular television show like 527 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: my son does all the time, they get really into it. 528 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 1: So I like it's like man, they're on the edge 529 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: of their seats. Oh, what's gonna happen with Chase, What's 530 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: gonna happen with Marshall? Oh, writer, he's the leader, like 531 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: it's it's amazing. For the kids, it's a great experience. 532 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: And if you do have any little ones that you 533 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: know are into that Paw Patrol stuff, you gotta go 534 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: take them to see it. I mean, they'll be on 535 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: the edge of their seats. They'll probably ask to rewatch it. 536 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 1: Tons and tons of times. We went and watched it 537 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: on Paramount Plus, the little streaming service they had it 538 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: on there, so we're at the house watching it, and 539 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: of course he watches it, rewatches it at least three 540 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: or four times a day. So if you had the 541 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: little ones, go see Paw Patrol. It's an amazing experience. 542 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: It's a it's a cool flip man, extremely solid flick. 543 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: Here's the thing that I try to tell people, and 544 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: this is also the genius of the folks who write 545 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,919 Speaker 1: these movies, because they're very good, because you've got to 546 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 1: write a movie for young kids, but at the same 547 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: time they have to write dialogue that you buried Church 548 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 1: and Chris being my producer, that you guys could sit 549 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,479 Speaker 1: there and watch and be entertained as well. It's one 550 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: of the great things about Shrek, how Shrek is written 551 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 1: in a way that when they talk about, hey, he 552 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 1: must have short man's disease, you get it. Kids don't 553 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: get it. Your kids, Oh Prince is just a little 554 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: short guy. But that's the beauty of it. And then 555 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: the other thing that comedian Roy White um I was 556 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: at a workshop he was at and he's trying to 557 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: get into writing cartoons. He says, they're what makes Paw 558 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: Patrol work is they're solving problems on a consistent basis. 559 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 1: And during the television show, I think he said they 560 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: have to solve a problem. Every six minutes, there's a 561 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: different problem, so you're constantly you know, there's there's a 562 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: whole sequence of how they write these things to keep 563 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 1: the attention of kids and why these it's become addictive 564 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: because they know how to get these kids thinking and 565 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:17,919 Speaker 1: they think like kids. But at the same time they 566 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: have to write and entertain it for adults as well. 567 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: So I just think there's a genius in that. Yeah, 568 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: it's it's genius. And like you said, it talked about 569 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: problem solving in and that's what you know, we have 570 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 1: to get my son to do right now he's five 571 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: years old. It's always you know, mommy daddy, you know, 572 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: help me, but then help me with that, mommy daddy. 573 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: And then I always tell them like, look look at 574 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: the paw Patrol. What does Chase, what does Marshall do? 575 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: They do? They run over the writer at every every 576 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: single thing that happens. Now they go and they solve 577 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: that solution by themselves. So it's definitely some life lessons 578 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: in there as well as some a little bit of 579 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 1: an adult humor. But like I said, that's an extremely 580 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: solid flicking and it's a must for families to go 581 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: check out. Chase is on the case, no doubt about it. 582 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: Speaking out of that being being on the case, we 583 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: saw number nineteen Amari Cooper play against Jacksonville. He wasn't 584 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: registered with the target. That game an end around and 585 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: the turf Monster got him. He got out there and 586 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: he played. And one thing that I got from Cooper afterwards, 587 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: he said, cool, it was my third time in pads 588 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: since January, not rusted. I needed to get that feel 589 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: of competing before it actually matters. So he just wanted 590 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: to get himself out there, and as some guys into 591 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: Fantasy football draft, they were passing on Cooper, they weren't sold. 592 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: A lot of people were thinking, hey, Cee Lamb is 593 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 1: going to be the number one guy right now. Marie 594 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: Cooper training camp said he plans on having the best 595 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: year of his football career. We'll see. But I know this, 596 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott like Samari Cooper, so people can say whatever 597 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: they want to. There's a comfort between Dak Prescott and 598 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper. I remember when they made the trade from 599 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: the Raiders to get him. There were three and five 600 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 1: football team. They end up making a playoffs because of him. 601 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: I'm just a big fan of Amari Cooper as a 602 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 1: receiver and as a positive guy in that cowboy in 603 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: locker room without a doubt. I mean, and let's not 604 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: forget I mean, look, you know, Ceedee Lamb, he get 605 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,239 Speaker 1: in a lot of hype right now. He ended up 606 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 1: for indeservedly, so I mean, I think he's poised to 607 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: make that year or two jump. You know, he's been 608 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: spectacular in camp. But let's not forget about him Mark Cooper. Now, 609 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: I mean, look, this is a guy five out of 610 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 1: the last six seasons, he's gone over a thousand yards, 611 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: all right. I mean, this is a guy who's great hands, 612 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: one of the best route runners in the National Football League. 613 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: And look, he's been out for a while with an injury, 614 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: but he's fresh. If we saw him out there, you know, 615 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: during that that Blue White scrimmage, as he's running routes, 616 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: just kind of going along, he is fresh. It looks 617 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 1: to me like he has that spring and his step. 618 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: He hasn't gone through the rigors of training camp, so 619 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: will he come out game one. He might be a 620 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: little rusty as far as the route running concerns, but 621 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: this guy is gonna be fresh, I think, And I 622 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 1: think he's poised to have another big season. I mean, 623 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: he hears all the talk about, you know, all this 624 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: is now Ceedee Lamb's team. He's a new number one. 625 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: All that's that in the third. But let's not forget 626 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: about Cooper, you know, I think he's going to be 627 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: a definitely at least poised to have another thousand yards season, 628 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: if not one of his better seasons going into this year. 629 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: Like you said, when they traded for him, those those 630 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, the frail Chase, it was 631 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: over me and the season was done for I think, 632 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: and he came in and he turned that whole thing 633 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: around kind of helped put that on the map as 634 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: a as an elite quarterback out there, and I think 635 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: that will remember that, you know, remember that connection that 636 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: they have, and I think they have a solid one. 637 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: And you know Cede Lamb he's gonna be, you know, 638 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 1: a great receiver as well. But I think that connection 639 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: between him and Cooper when it comes down to must 640 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: have third down and ten, I must get this fourth down, 641 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 1: I must get this. I still think his first option 642 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: will be a Mark Cooper. Look, they've got two guys 643 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: who can perform at a high level in Cooper and 644 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: in Cedee Lamb, and I'm a fan of both players. 645 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: The receiver room is going to be tight. So this 646 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: Jacksonville game coming up here is going to be very 647 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 1: interesting because in my opinion, I think they're five spots 648 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: that are taking Yeah, Cooper, Lamb, Gallant, then you got 649 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 1: Noah Brown centric Wilson. That's five And I know KP 650 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 1: watching out there and Utah is a big, big, big 651 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: semi for Hoko fan. Sime had three penalties, two of 652 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,719 Speaker 1: them came on special teams. He's battling with Malik Turner 653 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: for that, in my opinion, that sixth and possible final 654 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: wide receiver spot. Trying to figure out who makes this team. 655 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: That's what this Jacksonville game is going to be about, man, 656 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 1: without a doubt, It's gonna be about who makes a team. 657 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: And when you're talking about that last spot, that six 658 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: wide receiver spot, you're right. I think you've got two 659 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: people battling for Malik Turner and he send me for 660 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: Hoku And it's gonna come down to special teams. You 661 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 1: know right now, I would have given the leg up 662 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: to Malik Turner, and I feel like he would have 663 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: earned that that leg up because he's a dog on 664 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: special teams and if you look at it, he was 665 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 1: a starting personal protector on that punt team. Now, if 666 00:32:58,240 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: you look at that, and if you played the game, 667 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: you know, special teams coordinators they that personal protector spot 668 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,239 Speaker 1: and that punt that's their most trusted guy. If you 669 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: can get that. That was Jeff Heath, that was Danny mccraig. 670 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 1: They were the most trusted special teamers, so they got 671 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: to run that punt operation at personal protector. Now, unfortunately, 672 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: you know Malie Turner suffered that injury and kind of 673 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 1: opened the door a little bit for send me for 674 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: Hoku to slide in there. But he has to take 675 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 1: advantage of it, and he has to make his bones 676 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 1: on special teams. I mean, I understand, you get a 677 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 1: couple of catches here and there on offense, but if 678 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 1: he really wants that six wide receiver spot, if he 679 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: really wants a spot on this team period without having 680 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: to go to practice squad, He's gonna have to make 681 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: those bones on teams. And this is a huge game 682 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: for him. This Jacksonville game is gonna be a huge game. 683 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: And if I'm him, if I'm in for Hoku Shoes, 684 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: I'm focusing solely on teams, making sure I do whatever 685 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 1: it take, no mental errors, no mistakes on special teams. 686 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: I've got to go one hundred percent hair on fire 687 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 1: on that special teams. Because right now, I still believe 688 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: Malik Turner has a slight advantage because Bones Fossil, who 689 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: we know has a lot of power and a lot 690 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: to say. So in that coach's room feels that Malik 691 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: Turner is one of those core guys. So to me, 692 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 1: for Hoku, he has his last chance here in with 693 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 1: this Jacksonville game, he has to go all out on 694 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: special teams in order to in my opinion, in order 695 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,919 Speaker 1: to secure that six wide receiver spot. All right, KP 696 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 1: with another cowboy question here? What about Bradley and I 697 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 1: from Utah saw him make a nice tackle the football 698 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: game really didn't get to see a whole lot of 699 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: them last year. What are you thinking so far? Here's 700 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: another you know player that against Jacksonville this weekend needs 701 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: to come up in my opinion, and just solidify their 702 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 1: spot on the roster. But you can't have enough D 703 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 1: linement in my opinion. Yeah, guess there's two things on 704 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 1: defense that you can't have enough of. One that's that 705 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: they gotta have enough pass rushers. You gotta have enough 706 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: guys I can get after the quarterback until you gotta 707 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 1: have enough guys that cover the back there. So those 708 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: are always two units that will get a lot of 709 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 1: people in there. I'm talking about owner position. You gotta 710 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: go heavy on the corner because you can never have 711 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,440 Speaker 1: enough guys that cover, and you gotta go heavy on 712 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: the d line just because they rotate so much, and 713 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: you can never have enough pass rushers. Now with a 714 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: nine needs to do. In my opinion, he has to 715 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,800 Speaker 1: have one of not only you know, ball out on teams, 716 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 1: but he has to have one of those Dorn's armstrong 717 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,760 Speaker 1: Arizona type games where he's coming off and he's popping 718 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 1: off your screen. You see him flying, getting pass rushing moves. 719 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:24,719 Speaker 1: And we saw a little bit of that from him 720 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 1: in Arizona, but I needed to tick up a little 721 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 1: bit more. If he's able to do that, I think 722 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 1: he'll solidify his spot on this defensive line as a 723 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: rotational player and as a core special teamer. What about 724 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:40,439 Speaker 1: fullback Nick Ralston here, Simmy, as you say she will 725 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: al Allaana Loua. They put him on injured reserve for 726 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 1: he's gone for the year, So right now he's looking 727 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: like a fullback. But do you think they'll keep him 728 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 1: and then just put him on the practice squad? And me, 729 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 1: how do you see a guy like Nick Ralston when 730 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 1: you're trying to get this fifty three man roster cut down. 731 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: I just don't know if they'll keep a fullback. You know, 732 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: they might depending on how bad the tight end from Michigan. 733 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: I forget his last name, mqwen I think it is 734 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, I'm not sure how bad is Yeah, 735 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 1: he's gonna make the team, and I'm not sure sure 736 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: how bad his ankle's frame is. But I would picture 737 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: them being able to kind of move him back into 738 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 1: that kind of fullback role, that blocking tight end fullback role. 739 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,759 Speaker 1: I don't know if they'll have room to keep a 740 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 1: strictly a guy that's strictly a fullback. You know, I 741 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: haven't seen too much of him, you know, Alton Routes 742 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 1: catching the ball. I haven't seen a lot of him 743 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 1: on a special team. So that's another guy that I'm 744 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: just not sure his skill set matches what the Cowboys 745 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: want to do and if he'll be able to make 746 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:43,839 Speaker 1: a fifty three man roster. I'm not sure he'll keep 747 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: him on practice squad or not. But I'm not so 748 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 1: sure he'll be able to make this team. All right, 749 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: let me piggyback off that you're talking about McEwen. So 750 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: you're gonna have, You're gonna keep your three tight ends 751 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,919 Speaker 1: and Jarwin Sholtz and mqw. Here comes a question where 752 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 1: I think, just based on what you said, you cut 753 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 1: a guy like Nick Raleston and try and get him back, 754 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,399 Speaker 1: because I think you gotta keep Sprinkle. Now, you gotta 755 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 1: keep him forth tight end. He's also playing a bunch 756 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: of specials, so you gotta keep a guy like To me, 757 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 1: I'm thinking just a roster composition. I'm keeping a guy 758 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:16,360 Speaker 1: like Sprinkle, and I'll cut a guy like Ralston because 759 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 1: you know there's some teams don't even use a fullback. 760 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: I got a better shot of keeping, you know, getting 761 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 1: Rolston in my practice squad than if I cut Sprinkle 762 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: and he goes someplace, and if Bones will probably want 763 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: to Sprinkle, Bones will probably want to Sprinkle on his team. Yeah, 764 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,359 Speaker 1: when you can never have enough long, tight end tight 765 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: bodies out there, especially on your punt team blocking for 766 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 1: you or you kick off or turning team. You know, 767 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: special teams coordinators love those big body guys who can 768 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,359 Speaker 1: run a little bit, who aren't afraid to put their 769 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: nose in there, and that's what I think Sprinkle can provide. Overall, though, Sprinkle, 770 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 1: he's gonna have to put some more some more bricks 771 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 1: in his pocket because he was out there getting blown 772 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 1: by when it's when they came back when they're talking 773 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,360 Speaker 1: about blocking assignment. So I think he's gonna have to 774 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,320 Speaker 1: get a little bit better as well the special teams 775 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 1: in I don't think he's a locked by any certain 776 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 1: or any stretch of the imagination to make the roster, 777 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 1: but I think he has a better advantage than that 778 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: fullback to get on this fifty three man rosters strictly 779 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 1: because special teams coordinators, they love the long wickets, they 780 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 1: love the long arms, they love what tight ends are 781 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 1: able to do on teams, not afraid to stick their 782 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,399 Speaker 1: head in the game, bigger body guys. So I think 783 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 1: he has a better opportunity to making a team than 784 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,720 Speaker 1: our fullback friend and so. And I bring up sprinkle 785 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 1: because mckoon I was one of those things that you 786 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: guys kept talking about special team. So I was watching him. 787 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: He was McKeon was on all the special teams at 788 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: training camp. So he gets hurt. I mean, Sprinkles got 789 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: to get up in there, so not knowing how you know, 790 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 1: how far he is away from you know, getting out 791 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: there and you know, to playing and playing at the 792 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: level you want. That's why I'm saying maybe a Sprinkles 793 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 1: out there, because with Jarwin coming off the ACL, you 794 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,280 Speaker 1: don't want him on specials and then you got shown 795 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: you do it right, Schantz has been battling injury too. 796 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,839 Speaker 1: It came, so you've got to get at this point 797 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:55,759 Speaker 1: in time, injuries are going to force you to keep 798 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:57,759 Speaker 1: the four tight end, so then you probably lose the 799 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 1: fullback right there, as you're trying to get that. We're 800 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 1: down by the way. The Cowboys need to make five cuts. 801 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,280 Speaker 1: They got to get from eighty five down to eighty. 802 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 1: Let's take one more break here, all right, we've got 803 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 1: more to the whole sheep. And I got the whole 804 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: sheet full of stuff here, and we rarely get into 805 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 1: all of it here. There was one player who, in 806 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 1: my opinion, when I was watching training camp in Oxnard, 807 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,840 Speaker 1: this player was not looking good, especially on the third teams. 808 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: But you put this guy in games and we're seeing 809 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,359 Speaker 1: some things happen to exactly who that player is next 810 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 1: right on the players, lads.

So hey many many get it in 849 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 1: while you can. But uh, you know, I think I 850 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 1: think my man Danny's got You know, when we talk 851 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 1: about this attendance, if it was a high school, yeah, 852 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 1: you got to repeat. Danny was be repeating the grave 853 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: for the high school attended. Oh I'm telling you, Yeah, 854 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,480 Speaker 1: he was on me about missing them days. Now. Now 855 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 1: all of a sudden love boy out here doing who knows? 856 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,479 Speaker 1: So they you got here about the trophy, he hadn't 857 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,880 Speaker 1: retired the trophy, man, he retired trophy. So, by the way, 858 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 1: speaking of trophies, I had to give up my fantasy 859 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:11,839 Speaker 1: football trophy. US finally gave me. Had my draft, Church 860 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 1: had my draft, and I was sitting there and it 861 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:19,839 Speaker 1: choice was really between Ceedee Lamb and Jordan and Justin 862 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 1: Jefferson and the Vikings man. It was it was right 863 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 1: there looking at both guys. I hope you chose I 864 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 1: went with Jefferson. Oh no, Kirk Cousins to get him 865 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:41,920 Speaker 1: the ball. Hey, look, this is what I have to 866 00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: tell people all the time, and I will defend Kirk 867 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 1: Cousins from this standpoint. I won a fantasy football championship 868 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: with Kirk Cousins. And because it's fantasy football, you just 869 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 1: need this guy to throw a lot. Don't look for 870 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:58,280 Speaker 1: winning football, it's fantasy football. One of the absolute worst 871 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 1: fantasy plays ever would be Troy Agman back in the day. 872 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 1: I mean, the most Troy argue for it was twenty 873 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:07,240 Speaker 1: three touchdowns in the season. Troy was not a fantasy guy, 874 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,239 Speaker 1: but this dude was absolutely fantastic when it came to 875 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 1: winning football games. Nobody won more than nineties, more games 876 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 1: than nineties in Troydon. But we're just about fantasy football. 877 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,600 Speaker 1: You need numbers, you need stats. Kirk Cousins can give 878 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,760 Speaker 1: you that. I mean, he's a great garbage time guy. 879 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 1: I mean, Ryan Fitzpatrick is another one of these guys 880 00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:24,399 Speaker 1: where you don't look at me like, I don't want 881 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,319 Speaker 1: to take this guy by fantasy team, but you look 882 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 1: up here, this guy is gonna put up numbers for you. 883 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 1: So will so so from that standpoint, I mean, look 884 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,319 Speaker 1: at look at the year Jefferson had last year, and 885 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 1: Feeland was hurt a bunch of it. But this guy 886 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 1: got targeted a whole lot. The issue with CD and 887 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 1: one reason why I didn't go with him versus versus Jefferson, 888 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,400 Speaker 1: is if Cooper is healthy, he's got that trust to 889 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,719 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott and and if I mean, how many miles 890 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 1: do you feed around there with the Cowboys versus we 891 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: know what the Minnesota's got three options. Give it to 892 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook, give it to Jefferson Feeland. That's it. And 893 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:05,359 Speaker 1: Feeland has been hurt a lot the last couple of years, 894 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:07,799 Speaker 1: so I feel pretty good about Jefferson. So that was 895 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 1: why I did it, was I kind of have more 896 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 1: of a known factor versus an unknown factor in a 897 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: potential So and then I thought I could snake around him, 898 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 1: maybe get Cede Land, but somebody already got him. I thought, hey, 899 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: I tried to try to try to get the bile apple. 900 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 1: But that's where I went with that. I can see 901 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:27,480 Speaker 1: why because you know that that that Vikings defense is 902 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 1: getting really old right now. It's getting old, and you know, 903 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: I don't know how good they're gonna stand up. So 904 00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 1: I can see Kirk Cousins having a lot of garbage time, 905 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:39,440 Speaker 1: you know, yards and points, and he might be targeting 906 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,240 Speaker 1: Jefferson on that one. But the only different only only 907 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 1: you know con to that is Jefferson is their main guy, 908 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 1: so he's gonna get a lot of attention from the defense, 909 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:49,880 Speaker 1: and he might get might get a lot of double coverages. 910 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,439 Speaker 1: So if Dalvin Cook ain't spinning, it's gonna be tough 911 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 1: for Jefferson to get open on the double coverages. But 912 00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 1: like you said, it's gonna be a lot of garbage 913 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 1: time for Kirk Cousins out there, so he might be 914 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,760 Speaker 1: able to provide dividends for you. I think Mike Zimmer 915 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,720 Speaker 1: and former Dallas Cowboys defensive coording, he now head coachman, 916 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,319 Speaker 1: So I think Zimmer's defense will get get fixed this year. 917 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 1: Oh oh, by the way, Everson Griffin is going back 918 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 1: to the Vikings. How about that? I saw that. So 919 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,359 Speaker 1: he's he's back home, which which you know what, Man 920 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 1: and Barry, you played this game. Sometimes you got a 921 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: comfort at a place and you know what they do 922 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 1: and they know you. And obviously money, you know, money 923 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 1: gets dictated and money can get in the way of things. 924 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 1: And clearly that's what happened with Griffin. He thought he 925 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:32,719 Speaker 1: was worth this. They didn't think he was worth that. 926 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, I guess what, um, 927 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,640 Speaker 1: there's a fit and so he went on back like mccraig, 928 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:39,400 Speaker 1: he left, came on back. You know, sometimes you just 929 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,440 Speaker 1: know there's a fit in a comfort and and the 930 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: people that know how to use you without a doubt. 931 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,399 Speaker 1: And out to all the young free agents and guys 932 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,240 Speaker 1: out there, it's not always greener on the other side. 933 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 1: You know, the team might you know be offering you 934 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 1: more money than the team you're with now and in 935 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:56,440 Speaker 1: all that situation. But if that team doesn't really know 936 00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,359 Speaker 1: how to use you and they don't get the most 937 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 1: out of you, you might be getting the check. But 938 00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 1: is it worth being miserable at you know, at at 939 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 1: at that new organization, you know, the whole season law, 940 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: and then becoming the shell of yourself as a player. 941 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:11,480 Speaker 1: I'm not so sure it's worth it. So all those 942 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 1: young guys, make sure you do your homework before you 943 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 1: go in and just pick up that check in and 944 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 1: switch organizations like that, because it's not always greener on 945 00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:21,600 Speaker 1: the other side. One name I want to bring up 946 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:25,040 Speaker 1: here who had another good preseason game, but I thought 947 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 1: had a It was an interesting training camp and he 948 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 1: didn't show up a whole lot of camp. That's Jabril 949 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 1: Cox kid. They took out of a LSU in the 950 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 1: fourth round of the linebacker. He was running a lot 951 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,680 Speaker 1: of third team didn't see him a whole lot. But 952 00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:41,439 Speaker 1: in the games, you know, shoot, last game he ended 953 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 1: up tied for the team lead and tackles against Houston, 954 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 1: and then the game before that he had eight tackles 955 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 1: against Arizona. So he's just in church. You know this, 956 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 1: there's some guys who were just there there gamers, and 957 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,640 Speaker 1: this to me, it seems what Jabril Cox is he's 958 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 1: just a gamer. And maybe he was just getting used 959 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 1: to the deep. I don't know, had a chance to 960 00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:03,320 Speaker 1: talk to him, but clearly they put him on the 961 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 1: football field. He knows how to go find the football 962 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,759 Speaker 1: and make plays. And and I, for me, I know 963 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 1: I was I looked at him, was like, who okay, Okay, 964 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:16,720 Speaker 1: he'll be okay, he'll be all right. Look, man, there's 965 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 1: plenty of examples of guys who are pure gamers. I 966 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:24,359 Speaker 1: mean I've seen guys like Double G for example, who 967 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:27,440 Speaker 1: stinks it up in practice, stinks it up. Then it 968 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,480 Speaker 1: comes to the stellar game and he's out there throwing dimes. 969 00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,359 Speaker 1: I mean, there's there's plenty of guys out there who 970 00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,319 Speaker 1: who just practice. They just you know, I don't know 971 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 1: whether it is whether they have brain parts, so they 972 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 1: go in and out, whatever it is. Practice is not 973 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:42,799 Speaker 1: their thing. But when those lights get on and they 974 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 1: get bright, the player comes out of them. And that's 975 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:47,680 Speaker 1: your b real Cox. I mean, we've seen it now 976 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:51,359 Speaker 1: for these first two preseason games, first three preseasons games now, 977 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 1: So where we were hearing reports out of camp, he's 978 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 1: not having the best camp. He looks sluggish out there, 979 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,919 Speaker 1: he's not really picking up the defense. And then those 980 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 1: lights come on and it just clips. It's Seaball get 981 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:04,800 Speaker 1: Ball and this guy, I'm not gonna say he's popping 982 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 1: off the tape like Parsons, but you can see that 983 00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 1: speed from Jabril Cox as well.

And so he knew how to make the 1080 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:04,440 Speaker 1: Roscoe's waffles. But still I don't make Rosco's waffles at home. 1081 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,799 Speaker 1: But it's pretty good.

I'm like, Man, 1106 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:18,680 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what they wish they would have told 1107 00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:22,400 Speaker 1: me that before I came out there. But hey, I'm happy, okay, 1108 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,439 Speaker 1: never won't get me again, won't get me again again. 1109 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:30,759 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay is got a final preseason game. They're gonna 1110 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 1: head out to Houston to take all the Texans, and 1111 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,359 Speaker 1: Bruce Arians came out and said that he's gonna play 1112 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:39,560 Speaker 1: some starters. So I don't know if that means Brady's 1113 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:41,319 Speaker 1: going to be one of those who plays, but he 1114 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:43,520 Speaker 1: says they don't play some starters here, So I'll be 1115 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:46,439 Speaker 1: very interested to see how that goes with Tampa Bay. 1116 00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:48,120 Speaker 1: And look, you can play this star. You can playing five, 1117 00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 1: you can play in the series, you can play two. 1118 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:51,439 Speaker 1: I mean you can, you can play him. That doesn't 1119 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:53,400 Speaker 1: mean how long they're gonna play. But I'll be interested 1120 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:56,759 Speaker 1: to see if he actually follows through with what he's saying. No, ye, 1121 00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:59,120 Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie to you. If I was a 1122 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,960 Speaker 1: VET on that roster and he's talking about playing starters, 1123 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:05,960 Speaker 1: I'd be highly upset. Like this is the last preseason game. 1124 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 1: We all know, this is a tradition for where the 1125 00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 1: younger guys, the guys that are on the edge or 1126 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:13,640 Speaker 1: on the cusp of making the roster, this is their game. 1127 00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: This is their game to go and prove that they 1128 00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:18,000 Speaker 1: need to be on his fifty three man roster or 1129 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 1: at least, you know, update their resume for the other 1130 00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 1: thirty one teams out there, so they need to get 1131 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:26,040 Speaker 1: all the playing time. To me, oh man, if one 1132 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 1: series was one series too much, if I'm a VET 1133 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:31,439 Speaker 1: starter on that roster, I mean I have would be sick, 1134 00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:34,279 Speaker 1: especially all that these weeks at camp. You think, this 1135 00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:37,920 Speaker 1: last preseason week is usually where the veteran guys are 1136 00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: out there playing scout team, you know, messing around, playing 1137 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 1: playing playing games the whole time at practice, and then 1138 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:45,279 Speaker 1: when you get into the meetings, you're in the back, 1139 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:47,880 Speaker 1: letting all the young guys focus on what they gotta do. 1140 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,640 Speaker 1: So I would be sick if I was in that situation. 1141 00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:53,439 Speaker 1: But he's he's a super Bowl winning a two time 1142 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 1: super Bowl winning coach, so he knows a lot more 1143 00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:57,480 Speaker 1: than me. But I'd be sick if I was one 1144 00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:00,359 Speaker 1: of them starters. Though, well it's just one, just one 1145 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:02,359 Speaker 1: one as a as a head coach, arian as one. 1146 00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah yeah, okay, yeah, he was a coordinator on 1147 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:07,279 Speaker 1: the other you grab. But but but if there's a 1148 00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:09,719 Speaker 1: guy you say, I'll trust him. And none of the 1149 00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 1: starters played in the last preseason. And that was the 1150 00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:13,160 Speaker 1: interesting thing for me because I was going back. I 1151 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:15,520 Speaker 1: was just looking, okay, um, you know, so they got 1152 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 1: blasted and said to Tom Brady, no, to Tom Brady 1153 00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:21,120 Speaker 1: to play. So so he's got a plan, you know, 1154 00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:23,760 Speaker 1: if you have a strategy and it works fun and 1155 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:26,440 Speaker 1: and we'll see Mike McCarthy's got his strategy, which is, hey, 1156 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:29,799 Speaker 1: we're not playing anybody against Jacksonville. We got guys where 1157 00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:33,320 Speaker 1: we needed to be. Uh. No preseason for Tank Lawrence, 1158 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:37,520 Speaker 1: no preseason action for Dak Prescott, no preseason for Zeke Um. 1159 00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:42,239 Speaker 1: So Thursday Night September nine, out there Tampa against the 1160 00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 1: Super Bowl champion Buccaneers will see exactly what it is 1161 00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:48,319 Speaker 1: they get really really quick, really really quick, really quick. 1162 00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:50,719 Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question, because let's just see 1163 00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:54,319 Speaker 1: what's a rack in my mind right now? It's just okay, 1164 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:56,560 Speaker 1: you know, McCarthy was just supposed to be the offensive 1165 00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:58,960 Speaker 1: genius coming from Green Bay. That's why we brought him 1166 00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:01,520 Speaker 1: down here. I don't know about genius. I don't know. 1167 00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:05,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. Okay, I will just say he's offensive 1168 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 1: minded head coach. Right there, there we go, that's yeah, 1169 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,759 Speaker 1: he had two Hall of Fame quarterbacks. Yes, yes, we'll 1170 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,920 Speaker 1: just say offensive minded. But why why is he not 1171 00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:20,160 Speaker 1: calling plays? Still? I just I just think it's I 1172 00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 1: don't understand that one. I mean, is it that much 1173 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 1: trusting Kellen Moore? Or is it just I don't get it? 1174 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:29,040 Speaker 1: You know, you tell me. I just I'm not understanding 1175 00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:31,440 Speaker 1: what the whole Why is he not calling plays? I 1176 00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:34,240 Speaker 1: thought that's the reason we thought him down here. I 1177 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 1: thoroughly thought Kellen Moore was gonna take that boys and 1178 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 1: stage job. And if you noticed, Mike McCarthy had nothing 1179 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:43,080 Speaker 1: but great things, and he's ready to be a head coach. 1180 00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 1: I thought, I thought, this was Mike McCarthy's excellent chance 1181 00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 1: to just elbow elbow more out of the way to 1182 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:53,520 Speaker 1: take over the play. What's that one jiff, the one 1183 00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 1: jimpc where the girls right there, he see the brother 1184 00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:59,600 Speaker 1: coming there, elbow out the way he started doing, TikTok. 1185 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 1: That's that's like, that's why McCard elbow Kelly More is 1186 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 1: bumping right on that the way they pull out that 1187 00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:07,720 Speaker 1: place sheet, because I mean, McCard, they had that big 1188 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:10,360 Speaker 1: old Stuart play sheet, Like you got that place sheet, 1189 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:11,880 Speaker 1: you know you want to call some plays. And he's 1190 00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 1: spoken about the tope. But when Jerry comes in and 1191 00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 1: writes the check, hey please don't go. And Jerry's done 1192 00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 1: it before. He wrote the check to keep Sean Payton 1193 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:24,320 Speaker 1: from becoming the head coach with the Raiders, wrote the 1194 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:27,919 Speaker 1: check to keep Mike Zimmer from becoming a head coach 1195 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:31,160 Speaker 1: at Nebraska. So here he is one more time right 1196 00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:33,360 Speaker 1: in the fat check. So Kelly Moore doesn't take the 1197 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:35,600 Speaker 1: boys to stage job, I thought, Kelly, would, I mean 1198 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:37,800 Speaker 1: to me, that's the job you take, because if it's 1199 00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:40,440 Speaker 1: one thing we've seen, dude, who take that job one. 1200 00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:43,640 Speaker 1: They're all successful, nobody fails, they don't fire any of them, 1201 00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:45,880 Speaker 1: and they all get bigger jobs. All of them move 1202 00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 1: on to another bigger job that pays a lot more money. 1203 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:50,560 Speaker 1: So I thought Kellen Moore would taking but somehow the 1204 00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:53,040 Speaker 1: Joneses paid him enough money and convinced him that he 1205 00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 1: could become a head coach being the offensive coordinator to 1206 00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:01,120 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys self. You know, hey, I just I 1207 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:02,720 Speaker 1: just had to throw it out there because I was 1208 00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 1: racking my brain earlier and I was like, huh, why 1209 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:08,200 Speaker 1: is he not yet begin the call calls? But you're right, 1210 00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:13,200 Speaker 1: it's you know anyway, this this is when karthi waiting 1211 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:15,040 Speaker 1: on man, He's just waiting on a COVID game. So 1212 00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 1: somehow it's like Kim had a plea the stadium over 1213 00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:21,440 Speaker 1: the weekend. You'll wait from kelling kell Sea. You're that 1214 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:23,280 Speaker 1: play seat. You're gonna take that big old play seat, 1215 00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 1: and you give me calling playing like crazy man speaking 1216 00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:29,479 Speaker 1: to day, sneaking to dad. Quick. I bet he don't 1217 00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:31,760 Speaker 1: miss no board games. You saw how Joe Witt had 1218 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:35,480 Speaker 1: them boys flying around. Hey, the boys had Houston O 1219 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:38,640 Speaker 1: ten on third down. He was calling some aggressive players 1220 00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:40,520 Speaker 1: on third down, they looked like they was flying around. 1221 00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:42,880 Speaker 1: I bet then Quinn don't miss no board games. I'll 1222 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:47,040 Speaker 1: tell you that much. Well, he was in the running 1223 00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:49,880 Speaker 1: and this is the crazy stealing wit was in the 1224 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 1: running for the job last year that Mike Nolan gott 1225 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 1: which was an absolute terrible move by Mike McCarthy. So yeah, 1226 00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:00,480 Speaker 1: it's interesting man, how these co which just makes some 1227 01:00:00,480 --> 01:00:02,280 Speaker 1: of these decis So when you use the word genius, 1228 01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 1: I don't think you should use genius with Mike McCarthy. 1229 01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:07,240 Speaker 1: Let's just say, yeah, let's offensive minded. There we go. 1230 01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:10,360 Speaker 1: He's an offensive minded former Super Bowl winning coach. So 1231 01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:12,200 Speaker 1: he's won a super Bowl. But I don't think we 1232 01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:15,120 Speaker 1: want to throw when you say genius, I think Bill Walsh. 1233 01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:17,360 Speaker 1: I don't think of Mike McCarthy and Bill Walts in 1234 01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:20,439 Speaker 1: the same sentence. When I think of of NFL hey coach, 1235 01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:22,000 Speaker 1: I don't, I don't. I don't see it like that. 1236 01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 1: But all right, that's a player's Lanunge.
