1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,560
Speaker 1: Good morning, Jerry. How are you. Hey, guys, it's good

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:04,480
Speaker 1: to be on with you today. Good to have you.

3
00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:08,640
Speaker 1: How would you summarize what happened against the Broncos on Sunday?

4
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 1: Just kind of take us through your game recap? Yeah,

5
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: I think that I probably reflected a lot of us

6
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 1: when we came out. We came out strong with our

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: first play or return, and then really when we didn't

8
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 1: make the fourth down, I just kind of felt like

9
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:36,639
Speaker 1: we had it. We had them going, even though we

10
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: didn't make the first down. I thought we had them

11
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 1: going and over confidence. This is just me internally, And

12
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: I think when we got down six, when we got

13
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: down thirteen, I just kept thinking, my goodness, we're just

14
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: digging ourself a little hole here. It's going to be

15
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: half time before we get out of it. The thought

16
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,279
Speaker 1: of getting beat was not in my mind. And I

17
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: think that might reflect generally what we all thought. And uh,

18
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 1: I think that's uh, that's that's really dangerous in the NFL. Jerry,

19
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 1: you played at a high level, higher than most ever will. Uh. Well,

20
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 1: when you're watching a game like this, do you react,

21
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 1: you know, like you know, they just don't have it today?

22
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: Been there? I mean a lot of you know that

23
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: this kind of happens where you just don't have it

24
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: on that day. How do you react during the game emotionally?

25
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't see it that way. Uh. I

26
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: basically know that games are a journey. A full game

27
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 1: is a journey. A lot of plays in a game

28
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: and you really do get knocked down the ill proverbial thought,

29
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: and you got to get up and and but I'm

30
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: such a believer in momentum and such a believer and

31
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 1: what this game calls on you physically as well as emotionally.

32
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: And you can get on a role, and you can

33
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: get on a high and you can do that between

34
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: snaps at your individual position assignments. You can do it

35
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 1: as a unit, or you can do it as a team.

36
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: And yes, I do believe that we let the momentum

37
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: get away from us. It reflected in our body language.

38
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 1: I've seen it happen. I've seen it happen within a practice.

39
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: I've seen a player get inspired with the ways playing

40
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: at practice and just go on and have a hell

41
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: of a day, but go the opposite way. And so

42
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 1: it's one of the dynamics that makes our game so special.

43
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: You can talk about all the talent you want to,

44
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: and that's important if you talk about availability, being an

45
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: efficient player, you talk about all that, but at the

46
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: end of the day, it's a very physical game, and

47
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: you really got to get the guy in front of you,

48
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: and you've got to beat the guy that's trying to

49
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:03,079
Speaker 1: defend you or that you're trying to defend against to

50
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: make a tackle. And when you don't concentrate on just

51
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: the physicalness, man on man, win my battle. When you

52
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: don't do that, you can get half what happened to

53
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: you the other day, Jerry, were you okay with the

54
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: fourth down attempts early on? I understood them. I thought,

55
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,679
Speaker 1: I really thought the way we ran in our first series,

56
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 1: the way we were physically moving the ball there with

57
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: the first three or four plays, I didn't have a

58
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: problem with going forward. I do see how emboden the defense.

59
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: That's the very point. They got embodened by the very

60
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: thing that we were using and wanting to use to

61
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: give us a real, you know, a real boost. I

62
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: don't think any of us thought that we were going

63
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: to come out of there without a victory yesterday or Sunday,

64
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones here on one oh five three of the

65
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: fan Vic Fangio after the game, very well respected defense

66
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: of mine. You know that said other teams haven't played

67
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: Dallas right. Are you concerned? How did they play you defensively? Jerry?

68
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: And are you worried about that being a future blueprint

69
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: in a copycat league? Well, no, I certainly you should worry.

70
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: Anytime you go up, you got to remember their players

71
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: or within percentage points, their players are as good as you.

72
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: They so to speak, pay their guys too. He's a

73
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 1: professional player, and certainly this thing we're talking about, the

74
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: hubs and flows of emotion play a part, the physicalness available,

75
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: all of that. But playing us right, it means that

76
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:45,559
Speaker 1: we will If that's a basic scheme he's talking about,

77
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 1: we'll adjust. That's the game, that's what you're supposed to do.

78
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: Coaches take a lot of pride and say, if we

79
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: come in and they're doing this, we'll go do that.

80
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: If they come in and they're loading it up over here,

81
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: then we'll have this available to us. A lot of

82
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: times you hear me say, is that's a lot of talk.

83
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: Sometimes it doesn't actually take place. You don't make those adjustments.

84
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 1: But I think that we had to get them out

85
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 1: of what they came out playing we anticipated. I went

86
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: over carefully with her with Mike before the game, and

87
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,280
Speaker 1: what they came out doing we anticipated completely. We just

88
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 1: didn't anticipate them having that kind of success, and they

89
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: stayed in it. Jerry, Dad did not have his best

90
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 1: game by any stretch. Was that was that was he

91
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,679
Speaker 1: still feeling some effects from the injury? Was that rust

92
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: is something that Denver did in particular. Well, let's give

93
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: Denver credit, and let's give you make a couple of

94
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: those plays that we don't make, either from lack of execution,

95
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 1: the design, the ability to let's say the pass plays.

96
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 1: The ability to make the pass plays were there. We

97
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: had drops, we had possibly throws maybe, but that's hard

98
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: to tell sometimes who whether it's the route or the

99
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 1: pastor But the bottom line is this is that we

100
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 1: need to make some plays to begin the drives and

101
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: those plays imbording you to make other plays causes the

102
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: defense to adjust. And if you don't do that, you're

103
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: giving the ball. I mean, you're giving the momentum over

104
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: to the other team. And that's the game we play.

105
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to be simplicitic here. But we

106
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: just had happened what can happen to you any time

107
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,720
Speaker 1: you walk on the field in the NFL, and that

108
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 1: is the other team. The league was full of these

109
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 1: types of games. Full. There were three or four very

110
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 1: good teams that ran into some very good teams that

111
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 1: played them right and the ball went the right way

112
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 1: and they lost the game last weekend, Okay, Jerry, there's

113
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: about six and a half left and the game had

114
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,119
Speaker 1: already been decided. Were you okay with Dak and Zeke

115
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: and some of the starters being left in there. I'm

116
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: just reminded that there's no second gear for these guys.

117
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: It's all first gear, and when you make decision. We

118
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: were very careful for the long range of not playing

119
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: Dak last week, and we were very careful. It was

120
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: a long range thought, and so I think you've got

121
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: to incorporate that in. I'm not going to take issue

122
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: with him being in the game. All I know is

123
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 1: that when he's in the game, don't think that he's

124
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: not going to make every play like it's a Super

125
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: Bowl play. He's going to do that. So if you've

126
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: got concern about the fact that what would it do

127
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: to your season to have another injury if you've got

128
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: concerned about that, and that's the time to do it,

129
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 1: not expecting him, for instance, when he ran for the

130
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: two dak Prescott's going to do that. And I don't

131
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: care if down down the thirty points, which we weren't

132
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: really for all practical purposes. Yeah, Jerry Jones join us

133
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: here on one oh five through the fan. There was

134
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: a lot of talk yesterday Sunday as well on the

135
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: punt block. The punt was block deflected. The Nicheon right

136
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: touched it, Denver recovered. It did not get past the

137
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: first down line, but the ball did cross the line

138
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: of scrimmage after it was touched. Uh. Do you like

139
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 1: that rule? Do you think the rule needs to be changed?

140
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: Will you bring it up in an owner's meeting? It's

141
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: a it's a very odd rule because it rewards the

142
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: team that makes the bad play. And that's a fundamental

143
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: premise of rule making, is that we tried to not

144
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 1: have these uh, these uh plays that you shouldn't be

145
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: rewarded for rewards you in that particular case. You could

146
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: envision smiling here. You can envision the kicker rather than

147
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: turning the ball over, just kicking the ball right to

148
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 1: a defensive layman, then shanking it off him and having

149
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 1: a recovery like an on side kick. And so you

150
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: have to have two people to make the play, the

151
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: one that blocks it and of course the one that

152
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: tries to pick it up. But that's absurd, of course.

153
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 1: But no, I just I guess I knew the rule,

154
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: but I've never seen it applied, and when it applied

155
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: to us on those circumstances, a backbreaker. Again, what you're

156
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: looking for are those types of things that will switch,

157
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: that switch that momentum. I call it body language, and

158
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: that takes its told. The other real physical thing that

159
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,199
Speaker 1: takes its told is the fact that that caused us

160
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: to be out there that defense on the field that

161
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: much longer, and I think we headed five and a

162
00:09:55,120 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: half so minutes there for two quarters right there. The

163
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: expense that what the energy that you expend on your defense,

164
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: leaving him on that field that long, you could say

165
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,079
Speaker 1: the game is can be one right there by making

166
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 1: the other team's defense. And so those were dynamics that

167
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 1: we faced out their Sunday absolutely Jerry Jones right here

168
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: on DFW Sports Station, brought to you by for Bill

169
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: for Texas built for you. Jerry, how are you feeling

170
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 1: about tiring playing against Atlanta with his recovery, We'll see

171
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: that is one they will continue to take a look at.

172
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 1: It'll be dictated by the amount of frankly pain that

173
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: he can withstand there and it is We're really not

174
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: a lot you can do other than rest it and

175
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: try it. And it's one that if he stays it

176
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 1: will get better. Whether he's on it or not on it,

177
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: it will get better as we go along. So I

178
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,680
Speaker 1: don't look at it as long term. If he's out again,

179
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 1: would you anticipate keeping Steel over there at left tackle?

180
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: I would, yes, but I wouldn't. That's a that's just anticipate.

181
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: That's not a done deal at all. But he did

182
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: some good things. He did some real good things. But

183
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: across the board in our offensive line, we had breakdowns

184
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: and which is rare and give gives the Denver team

185
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,719
Speaker 1: a lot of credit. They just they kept coming and

186
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: put some pressure on us there in that offensive line. Jared,

187
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: you think that some of the fans can get excited

188
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: about the return of Michael Gallup for Sunday. How's he

189
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: looking for this game? Well, he does look good for

190
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 1: the game. He looked good. Frankly, it was close. On hindsights,

191
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: you say, well, Michael does a great job of catching

192
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 1: those long balls, which we really needed some execution in

193
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 1: there in our long passing game, and he does a

194
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: great job there. On hindsight, you'd maybe lacked of seeing

195
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: him out there, but that's certainly hindsight and that did

196
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: not make the difference that we the way we played,

197
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 1: and so but it's going to be good to have

198
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: him back. Yes, we need him. Is a really really

199
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: outstanding receiver. Jerry. This week, a couple of the players

200
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 1: said that there were the practices were I don't say bad,

201
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,079
Speaker 1: but not the best practices, and then the same thing

202
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: was said by a couple of players the previous week.

203
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: Is that something that just goes in and happens during

204
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: the course of a football season or are they kind

205
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: of having trouble handling successes sometimes it can. One of

206
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 1: the things that I would give Mike McCarthy really a's

207
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: for is how he manages the team physically during the

208
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: week and how he gets the team really ready. And

209
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: I want to say that today and the fact that

210
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: we weren't ready Sunday, But he does a good job

211
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: of this. He's an experienced coach. He's one of only

212
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: four coaches that are coaching that has had He's got

213
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 1: the longest streak of going to the playoffs of any coach.

214
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: There are only four of them that have that long streak.

215
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: But he's got a lot of experience in doing this

216
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 1: and this long season, and one of the things he does,

217
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: I think has manages his practices very well, and I

218
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: think he manages the wear and tear on the players,

219
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: And so I think that's worth noting at this particular time,

220
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 1: because say, well, how do you get a team ready? Well,

221
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 1: we thought we were ready, and he thought we were

222
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: ready in our coaching sava players thought we were ready.

223
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: We weren't. And that's as flat as any team that

224
00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: I've seen. And we've got to get back at a

225
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: home field advantage. We didn't. We let our home crowd

226
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 1: not get in the game the way you expect home

227
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: crowd to do. Uh, and then we basically played what

228
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: seemed to be lack of daisical. It is a keep

229
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: feeding on itself. I don't think, I really don't think

230
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: that that was reflected to be worth noting as to

231
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: how we practiced last week, Jerry, do you believe in

232
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: your experience and all your wins in the championship years,

233
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: whatever season, that there's like a good wake up call

234
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: or is that a ridiculous notion like hey, we kind

235
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: of need a reminder here, we kind of need to

236
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 1: be brought back down to earth, or that that's that's

237
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: that's an overreaction. No, I know it is on an

238
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: individual basis, and I think in this case that's that's

239
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 1: the answer. On an individual basis, we can have wake

240
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 1: up calls. Your own experience, if you think about it,

241
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: can tell you that I know I've had them, and

242
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: I'm sometimes I don't think I make good grades when

243
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 1: things are going good. I like to think my best

244
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 1: grades are when I'm getting up are coming from behind.

245
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: That's on a personal basis, But I believe strongly you

246
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: can have wake up calls, and I believe the discipline

247
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 1: is to sit there and have those talks in the

248
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: mirror with yourself before you get on the field, so

249
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: to speak, or before you get into it. This old

250
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: sitting on the side of the bed with your head

251
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 1: in your hands and moaning and complaining after you've screwed

252
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: it up doesn't get it done any for anybody. So

253
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 1: I do believe they're wake up calls. You have to

254
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 1: have them though, before you're going out, not after you

255
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: get back. Jerry, I know that the AT ANDC Stadium

256
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: is a destination, But is there any way that we

257
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 1: could put a rule where you can only buy tickets

258
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: if you have like an eight one seven or two

259
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 1: one four or four six nine. Well, I'm actually I

260
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: like the way the ticket situation is in the NFL today,

261
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 1: and you have a tremendous secondary market and that is

262
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: not under the control of any team or any league,

263
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: and it's healthy and it's good. And frankly, we're we're

264
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: a good game for fans to come to. We're in

265
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: the central part of the country, We've got a lucky

266
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: to have such a great venue, and of course we're

267
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: playing well this year. With all of that in mind,

268
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 1: that's right where I wanted to be. Now, let's just

269
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: be candid. We didn't have a lot of cheer about

270
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: out there Sunday, and you could have had two of

271
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: them there and they'd have been noticeable. With the Denver

272
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 1: Bronx they had been going crazy. But of course there

273
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: were a lot more there. But given some success, and

274
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: again that was about as hard to have something that

275
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: you're about out there Sunday as you could have given

276
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: some success, even though he had a lot of Denver

277
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 1: fans there would have drowned him out going and coming.

278
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: But Jerry, do you get bothered by the amount of

279
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: opposing team colors that even get in, whether you know

280
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 1: some cowboy fans may want to sell a game or

281
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: here like, to not create the ultimate home field to

282
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 1: keep all those fans out. No. No, And of course

283
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 1: our season, our tickets are owned. Our fans owned those seats,

284
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 1: they owned seat license for the most part, and that's

285
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 1: one of the things they get to do. They can

286
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 1: choose who they won't end that seat or who gets

287
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: in that seat, and they can choose that for the

288
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 1: next twenty years. Wow. So there it is, we're writing.

289
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: We're writing it off as well, Jerry. Crazy day in

290
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: the league and it's a crazy league in general. So

291
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 1: best of luck recovering against Atlanta and we'll hear you

292
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: on the station Friday. Thank you. Well, I'm not writing

293
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: at all, but I didn't think we'd go undefeated. Well,

294
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 1: the probably from the fact that we played Temple seriously

295
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,919
Speaker 1: we've really not gotten her feet on the ground. There

296
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: was a little of meds that might have thought that,

297
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,160
Speaker 1: but we've got to get her feet on the ground.

298
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 1: We've got nine games to go here, boy, and it's

299
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,719
Speaker 1: it's going to be it's gonna be quite a battle

300
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 1: to get there. Absolutely, thank you, Jerry. Okay, guys,
