19
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 3: But I did want to kick off the show because

20
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 3: just about an hour ago, the news did break the

21
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 3: Dallas Cowboys officially releasing running back Ezekiel Elliott. And this

22
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 3: was per his request, as per multiple reports, and the

23
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 3: Cowboys honored it. He's now subject to waivers and he

24
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 3: hopes to land in a playoff team that's still in contention. So, ladies,

25
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 3: I wanted to open up the floor because it's interesting

26
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 3: on this podcast we've had to do a goodbye to

27
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 3: Zeke before. How different does this time feel seeing his

28
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 3: release happen, and you know, happen before the season is

29
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 3: really officially over.

30
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:44,960
Speaker 6: It's a sad ignominious end to his career with the Cowboys.

31
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 5: And the ignominy you get a bonus. That's where's the thing.

32
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 6: Just from an overall perspective, because I know that not

33
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 6: everybody was covering the team in twenty sixteen when it

34
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 6: was his rookie season and Dak, you youngsters. But the excitement,

35
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 6: the enthusiasm, oh I remember the I mean just the energy,

36
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 6: the feed me, the jumping into the Salvation army kettle,

37
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 6: the way the fans, you know, even this year, even

38
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 6: when he was not the man that he was when

39
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 6: he first came through, not the face of the franchise

40
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 6: along with Dak that he was early in his career,

41
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 6: the fans still, you know, loved him and he always

42
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 6: played to the fans. And I think it makes sense

43
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 6: that the team would go ahead and release him and

44
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 6: honor that request because it opens up a roster spot

45
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 6: for this weekend, so you can bring up one of

46
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 6: the young guys and have a chance to see them play.

47
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 6: And then you know, get a chance for Deuce Fawn,

48
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 6: who's already on the roster but has been inactive most

49
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 6: of the year. You know, it may not be Malik

50
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 6: Davis that gets called up from the practice squad. It

51
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 6: may be a player at a different position, but you know,

52
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 6: he's getting his money anyway. You know, it's not like

53
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 6: you're saving any money, you know, so you might as

54
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 6: well go ahead and honor that request and do something

55
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 6: nice for him. And I just hate that it ends

56
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 6: this way for him because only two other players in

57
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 6: the great history of this team rushed for more yards

58
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 6: than Ezekiel Elliott.

59
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 5: And right now, nobody's going to be talking about that.

60
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 6: They're going to be bagging on the team for bringing

61
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 6: him back in free agency, and I think it's going

62
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 6: to take a little time for people to have the

63
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 6: perspective to look holistically at what he meant for this team.

64
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think there is some turmoil.

65
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 7: We knew when there was a healthy scratch ag ains

66
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 7: Atlanta that maybe everyone wasn't on the same page.

67
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 5: So I think there's that what you said. The fans

68
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 5: loved him.

69
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 7: I mean even when we would go into locker room,

70
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 7: the media was always waiting by Zeke's locker room, right,

71
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 7: we all know that. So there's something still that he

72
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 7: still carried some of that excellence, like in the way

73
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 7: that people wanted to speak him on and off the field.

74
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 7: I know him personally helps my charity a lot. So

75
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 7: it's it's sad, but I think at the end of

76
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 7: the day, I think it's best for both parties. I

77
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 7: think everyone's kind of happy with what's going on, and

78
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 7: I hope the best from and hopefully he does get

79
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 7: picked u by a playoff team and maybe a new

80
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 7: environment and things go better.

81
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 5: Yeah he did. He did grow up a lot. And

82
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 5: the time from when he first came here.

83
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 8: Yeah, running back is I just look at us the

84
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 8: reality of the position and what the position does and.

85
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 5: He's only twenty nine but crazy right, Yeah, And it's how.

86
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 8: Hard it is, you know, to play and have longevity

87
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 8: in this league and not saying like he's for him

88
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 8: to be here and still on a roster and still

89
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 8: playing and still a part of a team. I just

90
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 8: feel like I don't know the running back position and

91
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 8: the changes that have happened in the last like I

92
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 8: don't know two three years, the expectations for them. It's

93
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 8: just for me, it's a little disheartening because I'm just

94
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 8: like the reality of what the position calls for, how

95
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 8: physical it is, and how.

96
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 5: Unforgiving it is.

97
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,479
Speaker 8: As you get older in your career, every team wants

98
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 8: to get younger at running back, and so just kind

99
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 8: of seeing the reality of that take place again, Like

100
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 8: just said, you know, we're saying about him again. Yeah,

101
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 8: it just it just kind of sucks. But you know,

102
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 8: I hope that he I wish him willy and whatever

103
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 8: he does right in general, but whatever comes for him,

104
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 8: because regardless, it's going to be a transition, and I

105
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 8: think that we have to be considerate of that when

106
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 8: and when players are in the latter part of their careers.

107
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 5: So yeah, I just want to be respectful.

108
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 3: I think it was interesting because Schottenheimer talked yesterday about

109
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 3: how well Zeke is handled, you know, kind of giving

110
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 3: up that starting spot and watching Rico be what he

111
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,239
Speaker 3: called the bell cow of this team, and he said,

112
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 3: you know, you get older, you realize that being a

113
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 3: good teammate matters and being a good mentor is important.

114
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 3: So I'm really glad that Zeke got to experience kind

115
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 3: of both sides of that in his career in Dallas,

116
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 3: which was, you know, you were the bell Cow at

117
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 3: one point, but now you can pass.

118
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,840
Speaker 4: On that knowledge and expertise to.

119
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 3: The young ones, the new ones, the Rico Dawdles, the

120
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 3: Blake Davis's.

121
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 4: And.

122
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 3: So it was special to see him grow up and Christy. Yeah,

123
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 3: and to your point, we weren't here covering it, but

124
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 3: as a fan watching him in twenty sixteen was exciting.

125
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:05,239
Speaker 9: Fun.

126
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 4: Oh, it was so fun.

127
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 3: But two, I just point wish him the best because

128
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 3: it is a hard transition. I think it's a transition

129
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 3: with players that isn't talked about.

130
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 5: The running back position like yeah, and.

131
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 3: It's it's physical, it's rough, you know how the wear

132
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 3: and tear on the body goes in the running back position.

133
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 4: So really wishing Zeke well going for.

134
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 6: And I would just say one thing. His three rushing

135
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 6: touchdowns this year. Uh, that's three times more than any

136
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,679
Speaker 6: other player on the team. They are only five this year. Okay,

137
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 6: we go as one dad has one and zek has three.

138
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 6: So that's that's how slim it's been in terms of

139
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 6: rushing touchdowns for the Cowboys this year.

140
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 5: That's not good. Actually when you bring that up.

141
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, so we wish, we wish seek. Well, we'll

142
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 4: kind of see what happens Jerry in the next few weeks.

143
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, they Jerry put out, Uh he did.

144
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 4: He did.

145
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 3: You're so right, Christy, Oh my goodness. Uh sorry, I

146
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 3: was pulling that up as you were meantime.

147
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 4: Thank you. Okay.

148
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 3: So, Cowboys pr actually tweeted a statement from owner president

149
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 3: general manager Jerry Jones regarding the team's.

150
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 4: Release of Ezekiel Elliott today.

151
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 3: Quote out of respect and appreciation for Zeke and wanting

152
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 3: to provide him with an opportunity to pursue any potential

153
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 3: playoff participation possible. Say that ten times fast, we are

154
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 3: releasing him from the Cowboys roster today. As I have

155
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 3: said many times previously, Zeke's impact as one of the

156
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 3: greatest to ever play with the star on their helmet

157
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 3: will never change and is etched in our record books

158
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 3: in history forever. We thank him, love him, and wish

159
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 3: him the absolute best.

160
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 6: Eight thousand, four hundred and eighty eight rushing yards.

161
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,679
Speaker 5: I mean, that's that's amazing. And a seasons with the Cowboys.

162
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 6: Now, of course he had more than that, you know

163
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 6: his year with the Patriots, but only am It Smith

164
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 6: and Tony Dorsett, who both by the way or in

165
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 6: the Hall Hall of Fame, have more rushing yards than

166
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 6: Zeke Elliott, and they played a lot more years for

167
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 6: the Cowboys.

168
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 3: And not to mention, I don't think we mentioned this,

169
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 3: the locker room effect that he has with his team.

170
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 3: It's like he's so infectious and Zeke is just such

171
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 3: a fun guy that guys like to be around. There's

172
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 3: those people that you know in your lives that just

173
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 3: attract like a magnet to two people, and that is

174
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 3: Zeke and that's Zeke with people that.

175
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 4: He meets fans.

176
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 5: He's got a big character.

177
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 4: He was nice to us and the media.

178
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 3: He talked to us a lot in locker room. So yeah,

179
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 3: again I'm gonna gonna wish Seke while going.

180
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 5: Forward, that's what she got a ring because you mentioned.

181
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 8: I mean, I will say also to just lastly, to

182
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 8: to cap off the conversation, Zeke was a big played

183
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 8: a big role in Dak's development as well.

184
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 4: And I don't winte that to get looked over.

185
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 8: Is that Zeke being who he was and that offensive

186
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 8: line also allowed Dak Prescott the time to come in start.

187
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 5: He took a lot of pressure off of Dak Prescott.

188
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 8: I mean Dak Prescott, I think in his first three

189
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 8: years was one of the top quarterbacks on play action.

190
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 8: There's a reason for that, and it's Ezekiel Elliott. And

191
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 8: I feel like, I think that's another reason while they

192
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 8: are friends and they are close how they are because

193
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 8: I think Dak acknowledges the you know, the way that Zeke.

194
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 5: Carried in his career, early in his career.

195
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 8: To get him to that point to where he could

196
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 8: become you know, that pastor that we now see, he

197
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 8: had to you know, have a good running game.

198
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 3: To Parently, we were just talking about run game works crazy.

199
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 6: We were talking about that yesterday was and what it

200
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 6: means for the Philadelphia offense and so he was and

201
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 6: what is he's doing and the way that they are

202
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 6: able to use that run game and rely on it.

203
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 6: That's how it was twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen.

204
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,559
Speaker 5: Eighteen nineteen, Yeah.

205
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, well to that point, Christy Bonnie were not here

206
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 3: yesterday to get your feelings out invent about the.

207
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 4: Loss to the Eagles. How did you feel that game went?

208
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 4: Did it kind of disappointed? Bothered?

209
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 8: You know, it bothered me.

210
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 7: It bothered me because we had I thought, a pretty

211
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 7: good December and seeing all how we were, how well

212
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 7: we were doing and maybe playing for pride or whatever

213
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 7: it may be before we ere eliminated from the playoffs, and.

214
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 5: Just to see kind.

215
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 7: Of them get dominated by the Eagles and all facet

216
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 7: of the game. The turnovers don't even get into that.

217
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 7: The minute the pick six happened, I was like, Okay,

218
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 7: here we go, and I love you, Micah, but no,

219
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 7: it was you know, Micah said, it wasn't really that bad.

220
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 5: No, it was pretty bad.

221
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 7: I think I also noticed how much we desperately need

222
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 7: depth at the wide receiver position that when CD's not

223
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 7: in the lineup, it's a cause of concern.

224
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 5: The secondary looked bad.

225
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 7: I mean the positive, I guess Rico besides that fumble,

226
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 7: he had a pretty good day, if you want to

227
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 7: mark a positive. But all in all it was for

228
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 7: me is disappointing. And to see not just a backup

229
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 7: a third string quarterback dominate was upsetting.

230
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 5: You know, because I thought we have played a little better.

231
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely, and I think.

232
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 5: You already said all the testrum.

233
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 3: No, it's important to talk about because at the end

234
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 3: of the day, like you have one game left in

235
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 3: the season, you were playing for pride and alle. What

236
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 3: we've been hearing is potentially I could determine the fate

237
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 3: of these one year contracts that are all on the

238
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 3: board right now. Come Sunday night, there's a laundry list

239
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 3: of free agents, not just on the on the player's roster,

240
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 3: but the coaching staff as well.

241
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 4: So very great points there.

242
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 3: I did want to ask you guys on the terms

243
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,439
Speaker 3: of talking about one year contracts and potentially, you know

244
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 3: that being the last time you see some of these

245
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 3: players play and getting there. The conversation came up this

246
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 3: morning on the fan about you know, different kind of coaches,

247
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 3: not just Mike McCarthy being on one year contracts. One

248
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 3: of which which I thought was an interesting point that

249
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,079
Speaker 3: we haven't been talking about enough is Will McClay, who

250
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 3: is instrumental in getting a lot of the draft.

251
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 7: Picks and the Jets are interesting and as a GM

252
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:50,959
Speaker 7: he's on the short list.

253
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 3: I mean a lot of people would be foolish to

254
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 3: look over Will McClay and getting a higher position. But

255
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 3: we actually have that sound bite, Jesse, if you wouldn't

256
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 3: mind hit that for us, we can listen to it

257
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 3: and then.

258
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 4: We'll discuss Jerry.

259
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 10: You know, you've talked a lot about, you know, the

260
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 10: the decisions that you have to make and that you're

261
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 10: evaluating with your coaching staff and with players too that

262
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 10: are pending free agents. We haven't talked a lot about

263
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 10: personnel potentially. Will McLay mentioned in January that he was

264
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 10: entering the final year of his deal as well. Are

265
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 10: you evaluating Will mclay's future with the organization at all

266
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 10: as part of your outlook?

267
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 9: You know, we have in all of our organization, we

268
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 9: have people's agreements, if you will, their contracts. We have

269
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 9: them come up for a much shorter contracts than probably

270
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 9: the people involved would like to have. And I do

271
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 9: that because that's pretty impactful when you moved because of contracts,

272
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 9: and so I like to have the facts of those

273
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 9: and comfortable with them. So we'll be, have been, and

274
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:12,959
Speaker 9: will be. No one will draft and organized. A lot

275
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 9: of people don't realize this. Will's main job is organizing

276
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 9: out have out.

277
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 11: Jerry, were losing you a little bit stepped.

278
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 9: To your right, guess, but I'm actually okay, there you go.

279
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 9: But so we'll just see how that works too.

280
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 3: That last sentence was what we needed, and Jerry kind

281
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 3: of sounds like my voice today is.

282
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 4: The same, I shall do. Wish I could have heard what.

283
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 8: He was saying. Yeah, well in a rocket ship.

284
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 4: I really want to.

285
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 3: I wanted to hear your thoughts on this because actually

286
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 3: I noticed this because you tweeted it, and I was like, oh,

287
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 3: Michael has some thoughts about this. Well, McClay the impact

288
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 3: he's had on this organization. How detrimental is it to

289
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 3: get him back on another contract for this team?

290
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 8: I mean, so I was trying to get a glance.

291
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,359
Speaker 5: Well, it's important, clearly.

292
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 8: But I was trying to get a beat on what

293
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 8: Jerry was saying about the contract thing, because how long

294
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 8: is how long is the contract?

295
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 6: He's through the draft, he's through the coming draft.

296
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 8: And I'm tracking out how many years is the contract

297
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 8: though his contract well.

298
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 5: It's it's up after this draft.

299
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 11: I'm tracking that part.

300
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 4: How long he is.

301
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 5: I'm not sure.

302
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 6: So he got promoted to in twenty seventeen to vice

303
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 6: president to a player personnel. Before that, he was a

304
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 6: director for scouting and so this is his twenty third

305
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 6: season with the Cowboys. He started off as his defensive

306
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 6: coordinator for the Dallas Desperadoes.

307
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 5: I remember, yeah, yeah, way, And when I.

308
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 6: Say Dallas Desperados, that's the Arena League Football team that

309
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 6: the Cowboys owned and operated. And so he would scout

310
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 6: for the Cowboys part of the year and then he

311
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 6: coached for the Desperadoes and then eventually after the AFL

312
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 6: went away. But anyway, he's he's been. He has been instrumental.

313
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 5: Decider in the draft form what you know, Jerry's yes, no, yes,

314
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 5: it kind of helps him with the decision.

315
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 8: Well, honestly that that you just died, it might be

316
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 8: why he I think obviously willman Clay wants to be here.

317
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 8: But after twenty three years, I know that he knows

318
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 8: he is.

319
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 5: Capable for sing agen.

320
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 8: I think so too, and for that exact reason of

321
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 8: like like when he's calling when he is an intricate part.

322
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 8: And I think it is different with Will McClay because

323
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 8: and to answer your question, is different than many other

324
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 8: teams because you are a team that does not attack

325
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 8: free agency like that and you depend on the draft

326
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 8: to be good.

327
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 5: I think that I would.

328
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,479
Speaker 8: I believe that it probably does add a different level

329
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 8: of high and attention to the scouting because that's how

330
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 8: your team, just how your ownership likes to improve. So

331
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 8: for me, I'm like, I would love for willmill Clay

332
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 8: to be here. Is no doubt that we know what

333
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 8: he's been able to.

334
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 5: Do while he's here in team Bill, but also.

335
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 8: Too, just like dan Quinn, stuff runs his course and

336
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 8: you he might call a shot. I'm sure people are

337
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 8: interested in him as a GM for sure. He has

338
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 8: stayed here because I know he enjoys being here.

339
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 5: He's built they built.

340
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 6: Something here, his family, his son's older now though I

341
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 6: mean his son was still old.

342
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 5: The loyalty when when and when he last.

343
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 8: Re ups, that's my thing is like some people, you know,

344
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 8: he's he's here, he likes.

345
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 5: Being here and everything.

346
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 8: But for me, I'm like, at some point in time,

347
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 8: he is going decide, He's gonna decide that that is

348
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 8: something that he wants to take on. And I know

349
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 8: he thinks he's capable. So that's the thing that we

350
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 8: have to consider. I want him to stay here, but

351
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 8: when is it going to be ready, Like, when is

352
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 8: it If he feels ready, we have to accept.

353
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 5: That and it's going to have to seasons.

354
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, those of us, you've known him since the Desperado days.

355
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 6: I mean, you want nothing more than for him.

356
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 4: To be successful.

357
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 6: To be successful absolutely, you know him. Do you think

358
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 6: he'll I think it's going to be awfully tempting. But

359
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 6: the Jets, he likes it, He likes me exactly. Yeah,

360
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 6: it really depends. It would have to be just such

361
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:32,160
Speaker 6: a great situation. And I know that it's different here

362
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 6: when you have the owner who's the general manager.

363
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:35,880
Speaker 5: It's not the same structure.

364
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 6: It's the thirty one other NFL teams. It is unique,

365
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 6: but let me say no, no, it's unique. And the

366
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 6: thing is there, Hey, you look at ownership around the

367
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 6: league and it's.

368
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 5: Like, oh, I don't know about that.

369
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 11: Yeah, I don't know about that.

370
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 5: I don't know about that. The Jets, well, lord have.

371
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 8: Mercy Bonnie from the top road, go ahead, Christie.

372
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 5: No, it's I just hope, I just hope it's the

373
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:01,120
Speaker 5: right situation.

374
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 3: Well, if he does go yes, I mean, and my

375
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 3: question to you guys is, with twenty three years of

376
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 3: experience with the same team, how do you replicate the

377
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 3: success he's had with the draft selections? Is it even possible?

378
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 3: And how long you know, do you guys think if

379
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 3: they get somebody else, if they have to, because say

380
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 3: he takes another opportunity, would it take to build up

381
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 3: what will has been able to do for this team?

382
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 6: Well, here's the thing. You don't even know if you're

383
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 6: going to have the Jerry hasn't said the coach question.

384
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 6: You don't even know if you're going to have a

385
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 6: new coaching staff, right, So that would be a really

386
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 6: big if you're changing all the coaching staff. And when

387
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 6: a staff comes in, there's a certain type of player

388
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 6: that they want. What Dan Quinn wanted with his personnel

389
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 6: is different than what is with Zim.

390
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 5: Yes, so so you draft.

391
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 6: And the other thing is Mike McCarthy has said that

392
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 6: here with the Cowboys he's had the most input he's

393
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 6: ever had in his NFL career in terms of the

394
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 6: draft process, in terms of talking to the scouts about

395
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 6: what he wants, you know, And there are a lot

396
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 6: of places where it's mutually exclusive, right and so yeah,

397
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 6: it's just there are so many moving parts going into

398
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 6: this offseason. I cannot remember a time like this in

399
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 6: Cowboys history because, yeah, we've had coaching changes. I've been

400
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 6: here since Jimmy was here, so we've had a lot

401
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,199
Speaker 6: of coaching changes since then. But you didn't have but

402
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 6: you always had Jerry and Steven or you had Will

403
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:37,439
Speaker 6: through a lot of it.

404
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 5: But if man, that would.

405
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 6: Be a huge The other thing is when they've made

406
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,199
Speaker 6: head coaching changes in the past, even like when they

407
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 6: brought in Wade Phillips, well, they had hired Jason Garrett

408
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 6: as the offensive coordinator, so it wasn't even a whole

409
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:54,640
Speaker 6: new staff.

410
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 3: It's definitely a transition period, which I do want to

411
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 3: get into. We're going to go ahead and take our

412
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 3: first break. Coming up after the break, we're going to

413
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 3: talk about more of those question marks concerning the Cowboys

414
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 3: coaching staff, some roster spots that could be opening in

415
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 3: a lot more stick with us.

416
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 4: This is girls Talkboys Talk Beer back.

Speaker 4: By in Biline Ladies.

466
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,119
Speaker 3: We put a little pin in the conversation kind of

467
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 3: regarding the coaching staff, and yesterday was the final coach

468
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 3: in or I shouldn't say coach coordinators, I guess press

469
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,439
Speaker 3: conference for the year where they talk to media and

470
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 3: of course the one year deals.

471
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:05,640
Speaker 4: All the questions started to come up.

472
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 3: So just kind of wanted to recap on that because

473
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 3: to your point, christ you have all the moving parts.

474
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,640
Speaker 4: It's not just Will McLay. It's not just Mike McCarthy.

475
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 3: You have Mike Zimmer, you have Brian Schottenheimer, you have

476
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 3: John Fossil even I mean, there's just so many different

477
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 3: things that could happen among your coordinators, your.

478
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 4: Coaches, even your frunt office staff.

479
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 3: But more than that, you have your position coaches that

480
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,399
Speaker 3: kind of are in the mix to There's just a

481
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 3: lot going on at the moment. So what are some

482
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 3: takeaways that you got concerning those conversations from what the

483
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 3: coordinators and what Mike McCarthy said yesterday.

484
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 6: Well, there are twenty seven assistant coaches on this team,

485
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 6: if you include strength and conditioning staff, so that's a

486
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 6: lot of families that could face relocation if Jerry Jones

487
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 6: decides to go a different direction, and if whoever comes

488
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 6: in decides to replace a lot of people.

489
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 5: But I think that.

490
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 6: It's an interesting approach this weekend because do you play

491
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 6: the young guys, you know, it's like, oh, play Trey

492
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 6: Lance and all that kind of stuff. But then these

493
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 6: coaches they also need to win, don't they aren't they

494
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 6: aren't they coaching to win?

495
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 5: Are you coaching to win the game?

496
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 6: Or is this like preseason where we want to see

497
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 6: some guys and what they may have for next year?

498
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 6: Those things are you know, might be mutually exclusive.

499
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 5: I don't know.

500
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 6: It could be interesting, so, but for their future, I

501
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 6: think that just kind of a long winded way to

502
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 6: say that. I don't think any of these guys are

503
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 6: going to have any problems finding jobs elsewhere in this league.

504
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 6: I think that they're gonna there's going to be demand

505
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 6: for their services, most of them. And if Mike McCarthy

506
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 6: is not back, I think he would take a whole.

507
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 5: Lot of them with him.

508
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 7: And it's funny because you notice now how many players

509
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,880
Speaker 7: are really voicing their opinion about keeping McCarthy, especially Dak

510
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 7: And then you see you know, former players like Michael

511
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,399
Speaker 7: Irvin going on Calher Yesterday's saying then you go in

512
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 7: a different direction, like it's time and that this is funny.

513
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 5: I wanted to see.

514
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 7: Y'all thought Michael's been saying over and over again that

515
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 7: it's not the ex'es and o's maybe sometimes the play calling,

516
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,880
Speaker 7: but it's the discipline. That McCarthy doesn't have enough discipline

517
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 7: on this team and that you can't come in soft,

518
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 7: you got to come in tough and then earn the respect.

519
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 7: And he says that the discipline is where they're lacking,

520
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 7: and I thought that was interesting.

521
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 5: When I heard that.

522
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it just opens up the conversation of like,

523
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 3: do we think it's time for Mike to go?

524
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 4: Do we think this team is ready for refresh.

525
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 5: Or is it the personnel or what is it?

526
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 3: You know, it opens up that whole discussion. But ultimately,

527
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,159
Speaker 3: like you can only coach guys so much and then

528
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 3: it's up to them to do what they are going

529
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 3: to do with it. I think the fault lies on everybody.

530
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 3: I don't think it's just Mike. I don't think it's

531
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 3: just personnel. I don't think it's just your position coaches.

532
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 3: I think it's everywhere across the board. And you know,

533
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 3: I go back to the sentiment that we've talked about

534
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 3: all the time, where having a new defensive coordinator, which

535
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 3: was such polar opposite from dan Quinn, from Mike Zimmer

536
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,160
Speaker 3: and dan Quinn was such a big adjustment that.

537
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 4: I really think everybody overlooked.

538
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,880
Speaker 3: And even hearing Zim talk yesterday, one of the main

539
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 3: thing things he talked about was how he wishes he

540
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 3: could go back and kind of do things differently. He said,

541
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:32,159
Speaker 3: when he came in, he did everything kind of in

542
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 3: a blended manner, not necessarily.

543
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 4: The way he would do it.

544
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 3: And he said, you know, I wish I would have

545
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,360
Speaker 3: come in and just done it my way. And so

546
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,400
Speaker 3: to your point of like coming in strong and firm,

547
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:47,160
Speaker 3: and I think it's just a delicate situation in which

548
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 3: you can't really do that. And I also, like, to me,

549
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 3: it opens up the conversation of like generational players, like

550
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 3: you're getting into, like this generation of younger players has

551
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 3: to be coached to certain way compared to like an

552
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 3: older player, you know what I mean. So all that

553
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,199
Speaker 3: to say, it just goes back to the do we

554
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 3: think Mike McCarthy will be here conversation.

555
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 5: Let's be honest.

556
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 7: Also, there was a I mean, I'm gonna call it,

557
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 7: there's somewhat of a curse on this team, the injuries

558
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 7: a week after weeks that that was going on. I mean, yeah,

559
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 7: there's something you said of that as well.

560
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, they they were coaching with one hand, but yes,

561
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 6: behind their back in a lot of ways, and not

562
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 6: just with injuries, but the defensive.

563
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:26,719
Speaker 5: Tackles and just the style.

564
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, right, the right back by committee approach, which there's just.

565
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 7: A lot of different do you know things, You kind

566
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:33,879
Speaker 7: of have to put that in perspective.

567
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 3: So because of that, I'm sorry I almost knocked over

568
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 3: my whole plethora of drinks over here. On you do

569
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 3: you feel like you start from scratch or do you

570
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,679
Speaker 3: kind of work with what you have and you switch

571
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 3: different aspects of it.

572
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 5: It's too hard to say for me.

573
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 8: Like, I feel like we've shared several different opinions about

574
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,199
Speaker 8: like what we feel about with the coaching staff and

575
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 8: everything should be. Like I do think that I do

576
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 8: think that there are like some conversations that need to

577
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 8: be had about because like when I hear Zimer say that,

578
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 8: my mind goes like when I hear him say I

579
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 8: wish I would have done things like my way, I

580
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 8: wonder because I remember in training camp, the end of

581
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 8: training camp him saying I need a DT and I'm sure,

582
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 8: and I'm sure, but I'm sure if you bring in

583
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 8: a coach there's some type I they evaluate the coaches

584
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 8: before they bring them in. A Zimmer system calls for

585
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 8: a strong DT play. So to go into training camp

586
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 8: to even not have it didn't make any sense. That's

587
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 8: why I say, yes, ma'am, And that's my point, and

588
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 8: that's my point. So that's that's the hard thing about

589
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 8: this season. And it's been very difficult to evaluate.

590
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 11: It's been very.

591
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 8: Difficult to not be like emotionally charged, frustrated and to

592
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 8: consider like no personnel has been a thing, injuries have

593
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 8: been a thing. And to your point, and that's what

594
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 8: I wanted to get to in regard to what the

595
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 8: coaches said yesterday and how emotional it felt like some

596
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 8: of their delivery and their tone, their pauses, wanting the

597
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 8: room to feel what they were saying. They're also telling

598
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 8: us like, this job is hard.

599
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 5: This is not easy.

600
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 8: And I think like even as someone that analyzes the

601
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 8: game and stuff. Number one, I don't ever think I

602
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 8: know more than they do and doing this job well.

603
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 8: Number two, I think that in some ways they were

604
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 8: saying like this is just like any other job. Zimmer

605
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 8: Cum talks about coming in if I know I'm on

606
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 8: a one year gig with any job or approbation or anything. Whatever,

607
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 8: you come in you're trying to find figure out. You

608
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 8: have to know the lay of the land too. And

609
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 8: again I think people talked about he should be familiar.

610
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 8: I remember people being like, he's been in before. He's

611
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 8: just it's totally different your doc. This is a totally

612
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 8: different energy. I think that the players are different in

613
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 8: this generation of players and how they go about things

614
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 8: and what their everyday lives are like. I think it's

615
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 8: different in certain ways.

616
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 5: So for me, long story.

617
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 8: Short, I think that listening to the coaches talk, I

618
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 8: think that they wanted to kind of let us feel

619
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 8: what it is like to do what they do, but

620
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 8: also to say there's similarities, but we're also really different

621
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 8: and this is hard.

622
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 5: This is not an easy thing to take on. I

623
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 5: don't know.

624
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 8: Coaching is something that I think a lot of people

625
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 8: have misconstrued of like how much sacrifice is.

626
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, in their families as well. I mean it's

627
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 6: a sacrifice.

628
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 5: And it's twenty four to seven. If you're a good

629
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 5: coacherre here, you live here.

630
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 8: And they attached, but they also attached to they attached

631
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 8: to the players. Zimmer seems to have a deep connection

632
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 8: with Michael Parsons. Dan Quinn had it as well. And

633
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 8: I feel like I feel like that's a part of

634
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 8: it that it has to be difficult too, is to

635
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 8: your point, the one hand behind your back. He wants,

636
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 8: he probably wants to connect. He probably wants to pour

637
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 8: into them in certain ways or whatever, but there's not

638
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,959
Speaker 8: enough time, and you know, he has to look forward

639
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 8: and be in the moment of where he is in

640
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 8: his life as well. And he talked about that. He

641
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 8: talked about his son and coming into coaching and it

642
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 8: being this is been in a somewhat exhausting year for him,

643
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 8: rightfully so because he's getting his he's kind of getting

644
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 8: his legs under So for me, yeah, it's different, but

645
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 8: the same he want. I think the coaches wanted to

646
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 8: relate to us, yeah, and we wanted. I think they

647
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 8: wanted us to relate to them and how they convey

648
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 8: their feelings too.

649
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, to the point of discipline.

650
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 3: It kind of made me think, like the little debate

651
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 3: about the scuffle during the Eagles game, Christy.

652
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 4: Was right there.

653
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 3: We didn't get to this and you had a front

654
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 3: row you to the fight, and yeah, I want to

655
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 3: talk to you about it, because there's a lot of

656
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 3: moving parts to it.

657
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 9: Right.

658
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 5: Well, you know one thing that was said on.

659
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 6: Not the radio broadcast, but that oh, you know, maybe

660
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 6: some frustration with the way, you know, the lopsided score. No,

661
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 6: let me tell you that in the first quarter, Sydney Brown,

662
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 6: who's the backup safety and special teamer for the Eagles,

663
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 6: who was involved in the scuffle with Troy Pride Junior,

664
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 6: the Cowboys corner back, and then Jalen Brooks, the backup

665
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 6: wide receiver.

666
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 5: This is all on special teams.

667
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 6: In the first quarter, Brown was scuffling with Pride, just

668
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,959
Speaker 6: a little extracurricular jawn and shoving, you know.

669
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 5: After the play.

670
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 6: In the second quarter, Sidney Brown with Ryan Flournoy, who

671
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 6: ended up on the pile in the tunnel with the skirmish.

672
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 6: And so what happened was in the fourth quarter it

673
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 6: was both Jalen Brooks and Sidney Brown. Excuse me, Jalen

674
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 6: Brooks and Pride were Vice. They were blocking Troy, they

675
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 6: were blocking Sidney Brown, who was the gunner coming down

676
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 6: on special teams, and they blocked him, you know, sixty

677
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 6: yards down the field, right out of bounds and everything,

678
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 6: and not illegally, but there was a lot of frustration,

679
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 6: and so ironically it was a punt that ended up

680
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 6: being a touchback because it landed in the end zone

681
00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 6: one side of the end zone. On the other side

682
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 6: there was the extra curricular and Brown was on top

683
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 6: of Jalen Brooks and Pride pulled him off, and then

684
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 6: Brooks went after Pride and got hold of the back,

685
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 6: got hold of his shoulder patch from the backside and

686
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 6: flung him and he ended up about fifteen feet up

687
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 6: the tunnel.

688
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 5: And that's when the pile the fell.

689
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 6: And two of the officials got taken down, one of them,

690
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 6: one of them when it first happened, when they were

691
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 6: still on the field, still in the end zone, and

692
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 6: then the second official got flung down in the in

693
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 6: the tunnel. And I've never I've seen fights in twenty

694
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 6: six years on the sideline, but I've never seen when

695
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 6: it ends up in the tunnel.

696
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 5: But the thing is with the three keep going farther up.

697
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 6: But there are repercussions though with this because in the

698
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 6: NFL there's a fine schedule that goes for across the league,

699
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 6: and if you are ejected from the game, the maximum

700
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 6: fine is up to forty two thousand dollars. So they'll

701
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 6: probably by the time that Jake teamer player per player, no,

702
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:15,320
Speaker 6: not for the team per player. So Troy Pride Junior

703
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 6: who had just gotten promoted elevated from the practice squad

704
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 6: the day before, and then Jalen Brooks, who's nine hundred

705
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 6: and fifteen thousand.

706
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 5: Dollars base salary.

707
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 6: Divided by eighteen weeks, which is seventeen games plus the

708
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 6: bye week, it's about fifty two thousand dollars a week,

709
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 6: and if you get fined the maximum of forty two

710
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 6: thousand dollars.

711
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 4: Pretty much played for free.

712
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, pretty much, pretty much? So yeah cool.

713
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 4: So there.

714
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 6: Now, it's not like soccer where if you get a

715
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 6: you know, you get ejected that you have to sit

716
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 6: out the next game. So we don't have to worry

717
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 6: about Pride and Brooks missing the next game, but it's

718
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 6: going to have a big effect on their wallets.

719
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 7: As you mentioned that, and I'm curious to see what

720
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 7: they end up doing well.

721
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 5: See J. C. J.

722
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 6: Gardner Johnson for the Eagles, who had been ejected the

723
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 6: previous week, and he had already had some un sportsman

724
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 6: like fines throughout the year. He got to play against

725
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 6: the Cowboys even though all these infractions all happened the

726
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 6: previous week. So he played against the Cowboys. He's the

727
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 6: one that returned the interception for the touchdown. His fine

728
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:26,800
Speaker 6: for the week before was actually even higher because of

729
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 6: previous misdeeds, So he got fined.

730
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 8: For Yeah, as someone that watched Sidney Brown state that's

731
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 8: on brand. He's he's shippy, he's chippy.

732
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:38,400
Speaker 4: It was.

733
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,240
Speaker 6: It was a chippy game.

734
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 8: And when I say and when I say chippy, like

735
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 8: I don't always look at chippiness as bad, but yeah,

736
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 8: he's just he's really chirpy, very much soll in your

737
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:50,440
Speaker 8: face like that's.

738
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 5: Just well, that's how you go, That's how it is.

739
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 3: That was my question to you guys, is do you

740
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 3: agree with I mean, obviously the fighting and all of

741
00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,360
Speaker 3: that escalated, but do you agree with you know, the

742
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 3: kind of sentiment of I saw this discourse on Twitter,

743
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 3: so I thought it'd be fun to bring it here.

744
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:09,240
Speaker 3: Of Hey, you have, on one hand, you have players fighting.

745
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 3: I don't agree with that at all. Or they're sticking

746
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 3: up for each other. There's some you know, conversations around

747
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 3: culture issues, but if these guys are standing up for

748
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 3: each other, it's not really a bad thing.

749
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:22,320
Speaker 4: Where do you kind of fall on that spectrum?

750
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,719
Speaker 8: He'd been doing the most all day? Yeah, he'd been

751
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 8: doing the most all day. Listen, Like, I know, we

752
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,439
Speaker 8: watched football for entertainment. This ain't no pretty sport. Yeah,

753
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 8: it ain't like they going to war out there. So

754
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 8: if you being chippy, you pushing my dude out of

755
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 8: bounds and doing all this extra stuff. Yes, like if

756
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,880
Speaker 8: the officials haven't stepped in, because like you said, Christy,

757
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 8: like depending on the officials will let them play. So

758
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 8: I'm sure the officials might be going back and looking

759
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 8: at like.

760
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 11: Could we have de escalated this?

761
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 8: Is there something we could have done better to not

762
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,399
Speaker 8: have this go on? Because and that's why it's it's

763
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 8: so funny because if that's why the line is so

764
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,960
Speaker 8: hard to be drawn about what's physical, what's because there's

765
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 8: times we'll watch a game.

766
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 5: They letting them play today and.

767
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 8: Then you watch it the next week, and then you

768
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 8: watch it the next week and it's like, what's going on?

769
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 5: Like that's why there needs to be balanced.

770
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 8: So to me, I'm I'm fine with it so much.

771
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:13,319
Speaker 4: Number one.

772
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 8: And like I said, because I I Sidney's nickname for

773
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 8: me during the draft season was Swiper because you.

774
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:22,439
Speaker 5: Will never see him coming.

775
00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 8: He is very like and he he pays attention to you.

776
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 8: Like I've talked himut I talked about the combine. He

777
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 8: pays attention to people's body movements, their temperament, everything.

778
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 4: He's it's strategic for him.

779
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, he's trying to get in their heads. He's

780
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:37,799
Speaker 6: trying to him up.

781
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 11: And I say yes.

782
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,399
Speaker 6: And when you're the signer, the gunner is when you're

783
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 6: punting and then you're running down trying to tackle Cavante

784
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,240
Speaker 6: Turpin and you're out wide kind of like a wide receiver.

785
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 5: You're way out near the sideline, and.

786
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 6: When they put two people on you to block you,

787
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 6: I mean, that's a sign of respect, right, but it's

788
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 6: called a vice when they're trying to keep you from

789
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 6: coming down. But that is that is one of the

790
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 6: hardest things to do, which is why C J. Goodwin

791
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 6: for the Cowboys who's been doing it for years and

792
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 6: it's one and the best in the league. Has my

793
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:10,800
Speaker 6: ultimate respect because that is a very very difficult position

794
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:14,360
Speaker 6: to play, and it's it's really mono a mono with

795
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 6: saying he's a good win, I am saying that.

796
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 4: Where do you guys?

797
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,720
Speaker 7: Yeah, yo, you got to stick up, but yeah, of course,

798
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,279
Speaker 7: and it also shows passion that you're you know, you're

799
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,760
Speaker 7: you're getting into the game and you're protected especially also

800
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:30,800
Speaker 7: take away from special teams. But like when you see

801
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 7: your lineman protecting your quarterback, and I love that.

802
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 5: I like you like seeing that.

803
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 3: You know, what it tells me is, you know, with

804
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 3: all the all the outside yapping about a culture problem,

805
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 3: in that locker room, this team was playing for nothing.

806
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 3: There was no playoff contention, they had nothing to win

807
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 3: for other than themselves, and they're still fighting for their teammates.

808
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 3: That's sure exactly to me, as long as you're being

809
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 3: safe about it, stick up for your teammate.

810
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 5: Yeah.

811
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 6: And let me ask this because in Mike McCarthy's press

812
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 6: conference yesterday, yeah, when he was asked about his future

813
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 6: and he talked about he says, you know, I've been

814
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 6: doing this a long time, and I know what it's

815
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 6: like to build a team and a culture and everything.

816
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:10,479
Speaker 5: Do you do you agree with.

817
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:15,320
Speaker 6: Mike's assessment of what he's built with this program and

818
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 6: the culture of the team.

819
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:18,880
Speaker 3: Well, what we're gonna do is we're gonna steal on that.

822
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 3: might see some playing time or might nuts in our

875
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 3: Our last segment of the day, our very own Christie

876
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 3: Scales post a marvelous question at the end of our

877
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 3: last segment. So Christy, I'm gonna to answer your own

878
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 3: question first, because.

879
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 6: Just do I agree with Mike McCarthy's assessment that they've

880
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:34,959
Speaker 6: built a good culture here? And I would say yes, Yeah,

881
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 6: there's no doubt about it, the way that this team is.

882
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:38,920
Speaker 5: I know they got.

883
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 6: Drilled in Philly two days ago. I understand that Philly's

884
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 6: the superior team this season. But yeah, and that's why

885
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:51,919
Speaker 6: I'm reticent to make wholesale changes this offseason and throw

886
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 6: the baby out with the bathwater, because it is not hard.

887
00:42:55,800 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 6: I mean, it is so hard to build the culture

888
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,560
Speaker 6: or I've been here when it hasn't been that way,

889
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 6: and it is not a good place, you know, fun.

890
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 4: The bad place at the point, not a fun thing

891
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 4: to cover.

892
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:12,360
Speaker 7: I know, I'm so much on the fence with this

893
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,360
Speaker 7: because I've been going back and forth from you know,

894
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:15,760
Speaker 7: is it the coaching?

895
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 14: Is it?

896
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 5: The personnel? Is it?

897
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 7: I mean, obviously we know how established Mike McCarthy is

898
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 7: and what he's done and how how far he's taken.

899
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:25,320
Speaker 5: The Cowboys, So is it is it the discipline? Is

900
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 5: it going in a different direction? It's hard for me

901
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 5: to say. Still, I still I feel like now I

902
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:33,239
Speaker 5: just don't. I don't know. I mean, you know, the culture. Yeah,

903
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:33,959
Speaker 5: I may think he's.

904
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:37,240
Speaker 7: Established a great locker room, good leaders leadership, so forth.

905
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 5: I just there's something missing.

906
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 7: I don't know what it is yet, and I didn't

907
00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 7: need some time to kind of TVD yeah, kind of

908
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:44,680
Speaker 7: just marinate on that.

909
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:48,279
Speaker 8: You know, that's fair, I would say, yes and no.

910
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:53,280
Speaker 8: And the know is mostly because of the playoff results

911
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:56,799
Speaker 8: at this point. And I've said this before, and I

912
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,320
Speaker 8: feel very strongly about it, because of all the stuff

913
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 8: we talk about with the Cowboys, the the way that

914
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,880
Speaker 8: this team is run, the lights, the glam, the constant attention,

915
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 8: the just so much of it. It is unique, as

916
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 8: you said, Christy, and I believe and I think that

917
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 8: Mike McCarthy does a good job of player health. He

918
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 8: puts his players first, he does, and I think that

919
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 8: that's a quality that I wish a lot more coaches

920
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:29,400
Speaker 8: had in the NFL. But there's a threshold that I

921
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 8: feel like it's going to have to be broken for

922
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 8: this team to take the next step. I personally feel

923
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:37,719
Speaker 8: like it is going to take a special type of

924
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,880
Speaker 8: human to encapsulate a locker room, to encapsulate a team

925
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:45,759
Speaker 8: that has the expectations that they have that people have

926
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 8: for this team that also understand how long it's been

927
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,640
Speaker 8: since they've been able to rise to that occasion. And

928
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 8: I'm not saying that Mike McCarthy's not capable. I just

929
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 8: think that whatever happens, someone is going to have to

930
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,880
Speaker 8: be able to come in here and make a team,

931
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 8: make that team believe that they can do what they

932
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 8: need to do. Because we've heard players talk about anxiety

933
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 8: inks things like that, worry after playoff games. How do

934
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:15,280
Speaker 8: you get past the outside noise and what happens around

935
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 8: this team in totality, because it's not like anything else.

936
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,759
Speaker 8: And so for me, I'm gonna say yes and no

937
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 8: because I'm not sure like if he has helped them

938
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 8: get over this threshold as that super Bowl winning coach,

939
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 8: like I've done it before, whatever, How's how does he

940
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 8: get there?

941
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 5: I don't I don't know if this he's done it

942
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:34,879
Speaker 5: before the other team.

943
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 8: That's what it's difficult for all the things we talked about,

944
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:38,760
Speaker 8: and that's what I'm saying.

945
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,399
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's just like we keep moving the goal post, right,

946
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,879
Speaker 6: Usually you move the goal post and it's like, well

947
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 6: you did this, but now we want you to do this.

948
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 6: I feel like we've moved the goal post back this

949
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 6: year because it was oh, you need to get to

950
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,359
Speaker 6: the NFC Championship game to save your job, and now

951
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 6: we're moving the goal coast back.

952
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 5: But look at what happened.

953
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, this should do that.

954
00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna say I always laughed when people said

955
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 3: there was a culture problem in Dallas under Mike McCarthy.

956
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,440
Speaker 4: Like the way these guys talk about.

957
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 3: Their coach, and I'm referring to conversations I've had with them,

958
00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:15,719
Speaker 3: both on and off record. They do not disrespect that guy.

959
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:19,560
Speaker 3: They ride for Mike McCarthy. They respect him and what

960
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 3: he has done for them as players, as their coach,

961
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 3: and you know, at times as a father figure. I

962
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 3: mean truly, that's Mike has taken on a lot of roles,

963
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 3: and I think what he's built within the coaching staff

964
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 3: even and Schttenheimer talked about, you know, we all have

965
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:37,319
Speaker 3: bad days, and on my bad days, you know there's

966
00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 3: people that step up for me, or I step up

967
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 3: for Mike, or whatever the case is.

968
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 4: That's really hard.

969
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,280
Speaker 3: To find is a guy that can create that. Now,

970
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,200
Speaker 3: I agree with you on the threshold that they need

971
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:51,239
Speaker 3: a break. I'm not gonna fault Mike for anything other

972
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:54,359
Speaker 3: than his coaching tenure, because that's ridiculous to sit here

973
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 3: and blame it all on Mike for the last thirty years.

974
00:46:58,000 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, right right.

975
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 8: But I'm just saying the outside, that's what people do,

976
00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:05,360
Speaker 8: and that's the reality of what it's going to be.

977
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 11: That's what I'm saying.

978
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:08,400
Speaker 4: You can't escape it.

979
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,799
Speaker 3: And what I've liked is that he's kept all of

980
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 3: these guys very focused on We're worried about the now.

981
00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 3: We're not worried about the past because that is not

982
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:18,760
Speaker 3: up to us anymore.

983
00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 4: The past was dictated by what it was in that time,

984
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:25,719
Speaker 4: not us. So for me, I've said it, I'll keep

985
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 4: saying it.

986
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,399
Speaker 3: I think personally, if you want this team to win

987
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:32,200
Speaker 3: sooner rather than later and break that threshold, you need

988
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:33,040
Speaker 3: to keep Mike around.

989
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:36,320
Speaker 4: Like I will fight fight me on Twitter.

990
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,680
Speaker 3: That's okay, you can. You can fight me on Twitter.

991
00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 3: I can't really talk back right now. But I think

992
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:45,800
Speaker 3: getting rid of Mike puts this team back tenfold because,

993
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:48,359
Speaker 3: to be honest, we saw it with dan Quinn. Where

994
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 3: dan Quinn went, the free agents followed. You think that

995
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 3: won't happen with a good coach.

996
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 4: These guys.

997
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:58,360
Speaker 3: Respect again, I'm all for keeping Mike seeing what happens

998
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:02,080
Speaker 3: on a non redictus the amount of injured player year

999
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 3: and base it off of that, because really, what he

1000
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:08,839
Speaker 3: was able to do this season, what they were all

1001
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,239
Speaker 3: able to do this season with the limited amount of

1002
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 3: you know, older and experienced players.

1003
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:18,479
Speaker 4: They had, was truly special. Like, yes, the Eagles loss

1004
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:18,920
Speaker 4: felt like.

1005
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 3: A stab to the heart, but what other team could

1006

1024
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:11,200
Speaker 7: have depth. We always when there's injuries death. I know

1025
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:13,560
Speaker 7: that's contracts and you know there's so many things. You

1026
00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:17,200

1028
00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 7: things that the depth you notice when there's injuries, that's

1029
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:25,919
Speaker 7: like such a big thing. And then we don't really

1030
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:27,520
Speaker 7: have big free agency. But that would be nice to

1031
