Man, that 38 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 6: is unfortunate. 39 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 7: But we're seeing coaches like I mean, it was a 40 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 7: point in time. I remember when I was younger coaches 41 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 7: would get a job and they may have, as we say, 42 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 7: a long releash than some of these coaches are getting. 43 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: But guys are getting one year they won and done. 44 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 7: It's like it's like a kids going to play basketball. 45 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 2: Now you get one year and you out of there. 46 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 7: You know, I know for a fact we both understand 47 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 7: Pete Carroll, you know, and you know coach Carroll was 48 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 7: was was a younger coach, I mean an older coach, 49 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 7: but of course, you know, just with with his with 50 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 7: his history behind him and every everything that went with him, 51 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 7: you would think that maybe he might got at least 52 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 7: another year out there. But you know, just like you said, 53 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 7: coach Sol twenty five percent of the league. Now, this, 54 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 7: this is this is a trend at this point right now. 55 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 3: I mean it's but it's always this. Every year we're 56 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 3: seeing massive turnover in the league. I mean, this is 57 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 3: just a part of it now. I mean, this happens. 58 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 3: I mean, look last year. Last year was New Orleans 59 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 3: moving on. The Cowboys moved on last year. 60 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 2: Mean, this is the league. 61 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,679 Speaker 4: It's gonna happen. You're gonna have five. 62 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: Plus coaches a year getting gone the Giants, you know, 63 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 3: and some of these like okay, I look at the 64 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 3: Giants should have moved on from Dave Ball last year. 65 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 3: We're watching some of these teams go too late. The Cowboys. 66 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 3: I think the Cowboys went too late. 67 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 5: You think the Cowboys went too late? 68 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 3: When Okay, so after that whole debacle in the playoffs 69 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 3: with McCarthy. 70 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah. 71 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 3: Jerry kept him and it was what he had one 72 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 3: year left on the contract. Well, he didn't want to 73 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 3: extend it. And so you guys have been players. You know, 74 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 3: everybody understands when the coach on the last year and 75 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 3: then the assistants know they're on the last year. You got, God, hey, man, 76 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 3: I don't I need to keep the keep the rent 77 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 3: house going. 78 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 4: And where where the kid's gonna be. 79 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 3: I mean there's a lot of tension going on and 80 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 3: then the Cowboys going win seven games. So it wasn't good. 81 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 3: So if you if you weren't sold on it, then 82 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 3: you needed to go get sold on someone else. The 83 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 3: Giants came back with that same old thing, but we're 84 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 3: gonna bring back the gym. 85 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 4: We're back. 86 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 3: The head coach didn't look what happened? Man, thing God 87 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 3: got so so it's it's now they're out here searching. 88 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 3: So got Atlanta's looking forehead coach, Giants looking forehead coach, 89 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: the Raiders, the Ravens, the Cardinals, Tennessee. 90 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 4: Now you got Miami. 91 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 7: So and one thing about it is this the names 92 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 7: that you hear coming up for these coaching jobs. Okay, 93 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 7: like Jason Gearrett up here now, Mike McCarthy. It's one 94 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 7: of these things whereas like as this coaching carousel begins, 95 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 7: it's like the same people keep getting back on the ride. 96 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 7: They get put it off over here, they fall off 97 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 7: the thing over here, then they jump back on the 98 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 7: thing and they back over on over here. If it's 99 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 7: not as a head coach, they go back to being 100 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 7: a coordinator somewhere somewhere. 101 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 6: Some of those guys deserve to be coordinators from just 102 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 6: their lineage, and just some of them, honestly are better coordinators. 103 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 6: Everybody that's a good coordinator is not a good head coaching. 104 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 6: Vice versas everybody that's a good head coach might not 105 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 6: have been the best of coordinators. And I think about 106 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 6: coach Sol when you mentioned him from my teen year 107 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 6: playing with the forty nine ers, and he was there, 108 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 6: he was a players coach. 109 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 5: The guys galvanized behind him. 110 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 6: He is smart in his offensive paras, like learning under 111 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 6: Kyle Shanahan. I think he would be a better coordinator 112 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 6: right now. Maybe come back and give it a shot 113 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 6: later on, just like some of these other guys you 114 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 6: see or out here. Naggi's out here about the uh 115 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 6: I forgot. I seen him up for a few interviews 116 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 6: and then I agree with your statement that you said 117 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 6: earlier about Pete Carroll, I think that was one of 118 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 6: the places that should have kept their coach because it 119 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 6: takes a minute to build a culture. You can't just say, 120 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 6: especially in an organization like that, from all the things 121 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 6: that you have seen. But then there's some guys that 122 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 6: have been there, Like you said, Coach Sole's been there 123 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 6: and been having a losing record this whole time and 124 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 6: his tenure there, and sometimes you got to go to 125 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 6: go to get a new start. 126 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 3: So okay, So I'll say this, Anthony, when you mentioned 127 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 3: some of the names, you mentioned, some of the resumes 128 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 3: do warrant a second look. Jason Garrett was a Coach 129 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 3: of the Year. Now I have my own issues with 130 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 3: him here. I didn't think he was successful at all. 131 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 3: I thought they wasted ten years with Jason. 132 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 4: But that was just me. 133 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 3: But the opportunity when I see some other guys getting 134 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 3: a job, like Callahan's when he got a job at Tennessee. Okay, fine, 135 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 3: Jason can at one. Mike McCarthy, he has won a 136 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 3: Super Bowl. We saw Wade Phillips get three different head 137 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 3: coaching opportunities. North Turner had three different head coaching chim 138 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 3: Kelly had two opportunities. 139 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 2: What's to do? 140 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 4: Eric Mangini had two of them now and I come 141 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 4: into this. 142 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 7: It goes back to what he's said about some dudes 143 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 7: as better coordinators than he. 144 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 3: Guys, you've had second chances. Mike Shanahan. People forget Al 145 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 3: Davis hired Mike Shanahan very young. Ends up going to 146 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 3: the Denver Broncos. Later on after a stint with San Francisco, 147 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 3: wins two Super Bowls, arguably as a Hall of Fame 148 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 3: head coach. 149 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 4: Marty Schottenheimer. He was in Cleveland. 150 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 3: Marty had great years in Kansas City, fantastic in San Diego. 151 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:45,599 Speaker 3: Marv Levy fired by Kansas City, goes to Buffalo, goes 152 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 3: to four Super Bowls, becomes a Hall of Famer. Don 153 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 3: Shula's second team was Miami. He was the head coach 154 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 3: of the Baltimore coach when they got beat by Joe 155 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 3: Namath and the Jets Super Bowl three. 156 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:56,359 Speaker 4: He forget that. 157 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 5: Tony Dungee. 158 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 3: Tony Dungee was run out of Tampa Bay and goes 159 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 3: to the Colts, wins the Super Bowl. 160 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 4: Bill Belichick today. I was there in. 161 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 3: Cleveland when Belichick got run off and we saw what 162 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 3: he's done. And then you talk about Pete Pete's third 163 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 3: NFL job with Seattle, because he was with the Jets, 164 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 3: then he was with New England, and then you kind 165 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 3: of think about what happened to him in New England. 166 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 3: He replaced Parcels, gets fired, then got replaced by Belichick. 167 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 3: He just got put into a wrong spot. So you 168 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 3: can lose your job and and be okay. You can't 169 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 3: be on your third job and maybe get it depending 170 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 3: on Joe Tory was on his third job managing with 171 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 3: the Yankees. The whole headline in New York said, say 172 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 3: it ain't Joe. 173 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 4: And they hired it man. 174 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 3: So I think it really does depend on who's the coach. 175 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 3: What is your plan to be better? 176 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 2: That's the main. 177 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 4: That's what you got to get to Desert. You got 178 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 4: to get you tell me what went wrong in the 179 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 4: last job. 180 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, who were you working with? Because 181 00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 3: Mike Shanahan isn't man. I worked with Al Davis and 182 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 3: guess what I found out real quick, Allen and let 183 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 3: me do what I want to do. Al hired me, 184 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 3: but I wanted to put in all the personnelity he 185 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 3: called out. 186 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 4: If you tell me what you know? 187 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 6: You know how I was so that And that's why 188 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 6: a lot of these guys understand it's a carousel. Some 189 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 6: of these carousels earn their right to be at that seat, 190 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 6: and then it's somewhere you're like, nah, you don't, you 191 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 6: don't deserve that seat. But I think about a guy 192 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 6: like ebra Flus, he just got let go even though 193 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 6: he didn't have a good year here the prior, every 194 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 6: defense that he's been associated with before then, it's been 195 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 6: a top ten or eleven defense. 196 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 2: It was it was it was the reasons behind that defense. 197 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 6: No, you can't say there's reasons behind the one. They 198 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 6: had the top ten defenses. When a top ten I said, 199 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,199 Speaker 6: top ten are a round there. 200 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 7: Okay, but I don't want to debate this with you. 201 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 7: But the strength of schedule for that team was like 202 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 7: it was like one of they had one of the 203 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 7: worst schedules, one of the softer schedules. 204 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 2: So when you put it together, like. 205 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, he might have had a top defense against playing 206 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 7: the easiest schedule in the NFL, but he had. 207 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 5: It multiple years back to back. He had a top 208 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 5: he had a top. 209 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 6: Of ten defense that he took from the bottom of 210 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 6: the league when it was at the Bears. He started there, 211 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 6: when he left there, they were in the top ten. 212 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 6: And then you had when you were at the Colts. 213 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 6: They started at the bottom of the defense when he 214 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 6: got there, and when they left they were top ten. 215 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 5: Again. 216 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 6: That's why he that was the reason why he got 217 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 6: the head coaching job. So his past resume bills for him. 218 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 3: Here's what I'll be interested when you bring that about 219 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 3: eber Flues. And there's a guy that comes to my head, 220 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 3: this Vic Fangiel. When the Colts fired Jim Mora, they 221 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 3: told him to fire Vic Fangiel, and Jim didn't want 222 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 3: to do it. 223 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 4: No, not firing Fangio. So Jim got fired. 224 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 3: And over the years, what have we seen Vic Fangiel, 225 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 3: who's defensive coordinator of the Eagles last year won a 226 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 3: Super Bowl. Vic Fangil has been good. So is Matt 227 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 3: Eberflus gonna be that guy? Time will tell. Right now, 228 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 3: I wouldn't bet on it. That's just me. And obviously 229 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 3: you've been around him, you've coached him, and you believe 230 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 3: he can. But that'll be interesting. I would be very 231 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 3: surprised if somebody brings Matt Eberflusen to be their defensive 232 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 3: coordinator next year. Considering what happened with Dallas this year 233 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 3: and then what happened with the Bears last year as 234 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 3: the head coach. The Bears are now a division champion, 235 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 3: and the Cowboys are sitting here talking about one of 236 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 3: the worst years they've had in franchise history on defense, 237 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,719 Speaker 3: and of course yesterday's press conference and turn it into this, 238 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 3: it was Jerry Jones, Steven Jones and head coach Brian 239 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 3: Schottenheimer talking about what they wanted in a coordinator and 240 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 3: it just did not look good for eberflus By what 241 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 3: they were saying. 242 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 4: They were looking, we want a teacher. 243 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 3: We want somebody who's going to coach to the players 244 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 3: we have. 245 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 4: They mentioned the players that they did have. 246 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 3: Hey, we've got Kenny Clark, We've got Quinn Williams, We've 247 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 3: got Osa. We need somebody to coach that we've got 248 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 3: Tomorrow and overshown who we like. They did admit they 249 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 3: need to get better at linebacker, they need to be 250 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 3: better at secondary. Jerry admitted he was one hundred percent 251 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 3: wrong and what he thought about Jordan Lewis at the 252 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 3: slot that he take him SERI that he didn't take 253 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 3: what he brought to the the game, that he overvalued 254 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 3: what he thought Bland could do, thought Bland could just 255 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 3: slide in here to the slot. So he he admitted 256 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 3: they made mistakes, which we talked about player slams a 257 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 3: whole lot. 258 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 4: They overvalued the talent. 259 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 6: And undervalue the wrong one, undervalue the wrong ones and 260 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 6: let them get away. 261 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 3: So so now they need to go out here and 262 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 3: find a coordinator. 263 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 7: I'm I'm and and I'm not trying to be the 264 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 7: dead horse. But de mantra everything you said about Ibra 265 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 7: Flus and I got some information here from the matrix edge, 266 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 7: and I think I shared that amongst the group, he's 267 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 7: never been that guy that you said he has been 268 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 7: and and and I mean that the proof is that 269 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 7: it's in black and white here. Now what it has 270 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 7: been is he's he's been part of teams that have 271 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 7: been okay, but he has never been a leading defensive 272 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,719 Speaker 7: coordinator in any category, in any category. And then and 273 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 7: everything that he's basically done and coming here, he's been 274 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 7: worse than Zim, worse than Zimer. 275 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 6: So so what was his defense ranked when he got 276 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 6: to the Coats. 277 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 7: So when the defense was when he was with the Coats. 278 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 7: And now we don't have the time to go through it. 279 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 7: But I'll share this with you and then. 280 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 5: We can do this about the Cowboys. Is it not? 281 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 7: No, no, no no, But I don't have the time to 282 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 7: read this thing and just to pick through it. But 283 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 7: like I said before, the only reason that defense was 284 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 7: as good as it was because party was their strength 285 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 7: to schedule. And then who he had on that defense 286 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 7: as well. He had a young what was the linebacker 287 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 7: at that time, Shaq Leonard, the young Leonard kid. And 288 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 7: then right behind that he got but he got buckets 289 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 7: right behind right, So so there was everything. There are 290 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 7: some factors in there that go along with it. It's 291 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 7: plus with that strength to schedule. 292 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 6: But I'm gonna send this to you, and you just 293 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 6: I mean you can, you can send it to men. 294 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 5: I'll leave it here. 295 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 6: It's the same I posted the numbers of what they 296 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 6: started and the significant improvement that they have, just like 297 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 6: I stated when he came here and I said, hey, 298 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 6: the reason that I think he will be good it's 299 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 6: regardless if you're a defensive coordinator, it doesn't matter if 300 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 6: the tools that you got the schematics that you got. 301 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 6: There are some coaches that, hey, their scheme is just 302 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 6: that good. For example, Kyle Shanahan is one of those 303 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 6: guys that have developed players. And then there's some coaches 304 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 6: that really have inherited good players and they're banking off 305 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 6: of that. Well, you can't get mad at him for 306 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 6: having a Theforest Buckner, a shaq Lenard, a Zaire Blackman 307 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 6: that was there, because no, I'm not saying that, but 308 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 6: I'm saying he took that defense and improved them by 309 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 6: the people he brought in, just like with Rocan Smith 310 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 6: and the people that he did. Even though Chicago as 311 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 6: a team was but the defense was statistically they were 312 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 6: they were in the middle of the packer in the 313 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,679 Speaker 6: top half. So I mean that's tools and all that. 314 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 6: And then that comes back in the play of what 315 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 6: you said earlier. When these coaches getting this caresel and 316 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,839 Speaker 6: they started hiring people, they say, hey, what's going to 317 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 6: go on? 318 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 5: There. 319 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 6: Another guy that I think of who's been getting so 320 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 6: much flak this year, Stefanski. The fact that he has 321 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 6: they I think I've seen his name listed at least 322 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 6: on three different head coaching jobs that are like really 323 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 6: serious on him like, hey, after the year, after the negativity, Well, 324 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 6: people forget that. The Browns that you know what you 325 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 6: did in the past and sometimes your resume, they're gonna say, hey, 326 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 6: was it because of the organization? Was it because of 327 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 6: the tools? And just like with Eberflus and there, and 328 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 6: there's there's some coaches that we look at and we say, hey, 329 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 6: why did they get that job? Why did they constantly 330 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 6: get hired, or why they're constantly getting those interviews regardless 331 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 6: of why they're getting them, They're still one of those guys. 332 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 5: And eber Flutes is a guy like that. 333 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 3: They that clearly they missed the Cowboys. Okay, here's the 334 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 3: guy that's been in the building. 335 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 4: We like him. 336 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 3: He was never the coordinator here. He was a part 337 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 3: of some of the decision making. But they totally missed 338 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 3: and they can't miss again. They just cannot miss again. 339 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 3: Jerry talked about how we are probably going to keep 340 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 3: skewing heavily on the offense because they want to make 341 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 3: sure they take advantage of Dak Prescott and his contract 342 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 3: in his years here. So that means whoever they bring 343 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 3: in they got to be confident in that coach has 344 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 3: got to get the players to buy in. Clearly when 345 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 3: you listen to them, there was an issue there about 346 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 3: making sure the system fit what these guys needed to 347 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 3: do best and teaching it, and there had to be 348 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 3: a buy in. We saw that with Dan Quinn when 349 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 3: he was here. We did not see that with Mike 350 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 3: Nolan when he was here. So somewhere along the way 351 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 3: this becomes where management has got to get on point 352 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 3: with the head coach and the defensive coordinator to get 353 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 3: this thing correct. Because we've now seen Okay Nolan comes here, bad, 354 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 3: DQ comes in here good. Now you got ebra Flu's 355 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 3: here bad. What's the common denominator right now? It ain't 356 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 3: all the head coaches, it's the management. They got to 357 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 3: get it starts at the top. They've got to figure 358 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 3: out how to get this thing right. And I've heard you, 359 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 3: we'll come back. We'll come back from a couple of 360 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 3: the names we've heard here.

He's on a one year deal, correct, Like, 427 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 6: I wonder where does he stack up in the free 428 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 6: agency totem pole because we got a big and maybe 429 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 6: I'm jumping to ahead of it, or something like that. 430 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 6: But we got a big dosage of the other interview 431 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 6: the other day where they were saying, hey, this guy's important, 432 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 6: this guy's important, like for him having the impact he 433 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 6: had in the community and being a good role player 434 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 6: and consistent before you got those other guys in. 435 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 5: Does that hold any weight? 436 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 3: So no one at the press or yesterday asked about that, 437 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 3: or even in the walk off asked about Solomon Thomas and. 438 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 6: Sucks your Walthor Payton Man of the Year and a 439 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 6: good contributor. 440 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 5: And maybe that's just me being biased. 441 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 3: Yes, you're being biased because at the same time, what 442 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 3: you're talking about here is who's gonna be D line coach? 443 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 4: You bringing back Aaron White Cotton. 444 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 3: I mean you're talking about three dudes under contract that 445 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 3: they have high expectations for. Solomon Thomas is a he's 446 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,160 Speaker 3: a contributor. And if they want to bring back Aaron 447 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 3: White Cootton in the next DC says hey, look this 448 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 3: guy fits me. Or as you well know because you 449 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 3: played DC played D line in the league, there're gonna 450 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,120 Speaker 3: be certain guys a D line coach is going to gravitate. Hey, 451 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 3: this guy knows what it is. I want to do so. 452 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 3: Solomon Thomas clearly is a guy that had a connect 453 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 3: with white Cotton. They were with the Jets. Who's to 454 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 3: say this next defensive coordinator and d line coach. If 455 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 3: they make a change with White Cotton, they move differently. 456 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,479 Speaker 3: So I think some of his fate will rest a 457 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,959 Speaker 3: little bit in the decision making of who comes in. 458 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 2: And by the way, guys, Solomon Thomas is under contract 459 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 2: for next year. 460 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,160 Speaker 4: He signed a two year deal last. 461 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 5: Year for six million bucks. 462 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 2: Okay, well he has twenty twenty six. 463 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 3: And you know what I was going to say, next thing, 464 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 3: Solomon Thomas a good football player and a good city 465 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 3: and sell boom. 466 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 4: There we go. 467 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 3: So we got no no worries about that. Aaron white Cotton. 468 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 3: I do wonder what they will do there. I think 469 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 3: he's a good football coach. But if you're going to 470 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 3: bring in a coordinator, you do have to have the 471 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 3: conversation with the coordinator. Are you allowed to bring in 472 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 3: the people you want to help implement your system? D 473 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 3: Q was able to do that. He had good successes 474 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 3: that go ahead, And. 475 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 2: I think you know, and this is just me. 476 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,439 Speaker 7: You know, we've spoke about this in the chat and 477 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 7: you guys heard me say this already. I think like 478 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 7: the whole defensive coaching staff could be questionably up for 479 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 7: replacing at this point in time. I mean, because like, 480 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 7: regardless of what eber Flus and you said, like, they 481 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:40,159 Speaker 7: want a coach to come in here and be able 482 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 7: to tease the players and be able to and be 483 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 7: able to communicate with him once once he comes from 484 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 7: the from the DC, we all break down and go 485 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 7: into our individual meeting rooms and from there, you're your 486 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 7: position coach has to be a teacher, regardless of the 487 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 7: lack of what your DC then gave you in the 488 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 7: meeting room or whatever it's for your position coaching, you know, 489 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 7: like I know, to clear up and to fill in 490 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 7: all those gaps. And so what I'm seeing and what 491 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 7: I'm recognizing here is that the teaching level at what 492 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,640 Speaker 7: was going on in those meeting rooms was not being 493 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 7: communicated on any level to anybody. 494 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 5: Well you say, and get rid of everyb hey man. 495 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,959 Speaker 7: I'm saying like, and that's part of a culture changing 496 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 7: shift to as well. Sometimes you know what I mean, 497 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 7: fresh blood, new energy and just just a whole new 498 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 7: face for the program. 499 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 3: He's Anthony Dorsett that's Trey more than former NFL players 500 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 3: of New Strutch.

You start talking about a teacher. 522 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 3: Troy Polamalo was a guy that he had down there. 523 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 3: Ronnie Lott was a freshman when DT was an older 524 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 3: player at USC. Ronnie followed DT around. You talk about 525 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,479 Speaker 3: Ed Reid, you talk about Darell Reeves. These are players 526 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 3: that Dennis Thurman has coached. Deon Sanders, He's coached them, 527 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,399 Speaker 3: Ray Lewis, He's coached him as a defensive coordinator with 528 00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,640 Speaker 3: the Jets and the Buffalo Bills. There's a guy. When 529 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 3: you talk about we want high energy, we want a 530 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:04,120 Speaker 3: teacher and a communicator. 531 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 4: Shoty did it? Mit? 532 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 3: Dennis Thurman could do that. So these are just five 533 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 3: names right here that we're talking about. Could they bring 534 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 3: someone else in, Obviously they could, but they they've got 535 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 3: to go get somebody to improve the. 536 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 4: Defense to be better. 537 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,360 Speaker 2: When that Matt Eberflus was definitely Yeah. 538 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 6: I think that list that was an impressive Listen. I 539 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 6: think that a lot of those guys that I'm seeing is. 540 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 3: Eight and dirty. By the way, former eight and dirty 541 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 3: former D line coach. He who's now with Seattle. He's 542 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 3: technically their defensive coordinator, but he doesn't call the defense. 543 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 6: So there's see a lot of these guys are leaders 544 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 6: of mean and there you're starting to see. I feel 545 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 6: like a lot of those guys shares the same coaching 546 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 6: qualities that Shoty has displayed of being a leader of man, 547 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 6: being high energy, but being very well knowledgeable and having 548 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 6: the experience behind them. And so to shake it up, 549 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 6: you gotta really shake it up. And to get back 550 00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 6: to what we were talking about earlier, I do believe 551 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 6: that sometimes you do just gotta clean everything and like 552 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 6: you got to give the DC majority of the control. 553 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 6: But I feel like all DC's when they're coming in, 554 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 6: they have their guys, but most people usually always keep 555 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,360 Speaker 6: one guy on staff because that one guy on staff 556 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 6: has to know the players that they already have. Right now, Hey, 557 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 6: we're gonna trust your opinion, like everything sucked, but we 558 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 6: need you to tell us about the diamonds and the 559 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 6: rough that are on the back end, the guys that 560 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 6: need to develop and stuff like that, and also with 561 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 6: the schematics that we're bringing in, hopefully you know, like 562 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 6: with a guy like Dennis, He's not gonna have that 563 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 6: trouble when you come in here and say hey, I 564 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 6: coach Ray Lewis and guys like that, some other guys 565 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 6: there's gonna be like ah, man, knowing who you could 566 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 6: have had, that's where you have the backlash. And so 567 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 6: where you ease that bridge is keeping somebody on staff 568 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 6: currently that can say hey, I can tell you the 569 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 6: difference between last year ebra Flus defense and what we 570 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 6: got right here and how this is going to change. 571 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 6: And that guy is whoever they trust in the locker room. 572 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 6: So I know that it was very long winded. I 573 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 6: want to ask you who on this defensive staff newly 574 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 6: what you being in there? Who's that guy where players 575 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 6: are like, hey man, you know what, I don't care 576 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 6: what's going on with the DC, like I trust this 577 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 6: guy in his. 578 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 3: Opinion, defensive line Coacharan Whitecott has that respect. I mean 579 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 3: Quinn Williams, who they really do like Quentin Williams here 580 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 3: in terms of his leadership and the things that he brings. 581 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 3: So I think that's going to be a conversation that 582 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 3: whoever they bring in as a DC. And you know, 583 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 3: I don't even know if Aaron is going to be 584 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 3: somebody they look at us in terms of a DC 585 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,919 Speaker 3: so that they could do that as well. But I 586 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 3: think that's the kind of guy that they would look 587 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 3: to to say, hey, can you interview him and let's 588 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 3: see if there's a fit. 589 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, like with this right now, you got it, 590 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 7: you got it. You gotta hit the ball at the park, 591 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 7: you gotta, you gotta, you gotta get a home run, 592 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 7: grand slam, hot, whatever you want to call it. 593 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 2: And at this point you mentioned some of those names. 594 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 7: Everybody on that list has not been a d C before, 595 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 7: So like if you ain't been to d C before, 596 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 7: you ain't had the responsibility of being in DC. 597 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:07,880 Speaker 2: I don't think Jim Leonard has ever been in DC. 598 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 4: Not at the NFL level. 599 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 3: Okay, agent level he has, but they did say the 600 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 3: press conference that was not a prerequisite. 601 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,360 Speaker 7: So so for me, I'm looking at somebody that's done 602 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 7: it and been successful at doing it. Okay, like you 603 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 7: could bet it. You could have been a great position guy, 604 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 7: and the college you can call you. You know, you 605 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,199 Speaker 7: could be a DC in college too as well. But 606 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 7: at this level, I want to see somebody who has 607 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,400 Speaker 7: you know, basically as they say, earn their chops. As 608 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 7: far as you know, getting it done at this level, 609 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 7: I don't want to where this team has been through 610 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 7: already with the past four defensive coordinators, you can't really 611 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 7: leave a whole lot out the question about how it's 612 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 7: going to look or how it might go. If you 613 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 7: have a guy like d C like you know, Dennis Derman, 614 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 7: I'm sorry, who's been doing it for years, has been successful, 615 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 7: you could basically look at his track record. You can 616 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,160 Speaker 7: see what he's done over the years and see how 617 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 7: his defenses are going to go. I think that's going 618 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 7: to be more of a benefit than right now in 619 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 7: giving a guy an opportunity to come in here and 620 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 7: maybe like, let's see how it works and nah, let's 621 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 7: get a cracking right off the rip. 622 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 3: Let me ask you this question, idiot, why do they 623 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 3: not lean more towards players former players who are coaches. 624 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:25,199 Speaker 3: The greatest coach in this franchise's history was outstanding defensive 625 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 3: back named Tom Landry played in this league that when 626 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 3: something and said, you guys are players.

I'm talking about as a whole. The NFL 676 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 6: is an ego driven league. It is at some point 677 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 6: in time what always happened with great franchises an organization. 678 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 6: There is discontent between the head coach, the GM or 679 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 6: the owner because somebody think that their role is too 680 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 6: bigger than what it really is. And sometimes it's like, hey, 681 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 6: you got to ask yourself when I'm hiring this guy, 682 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 6: is he going to run it the way that I 683 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 6: want to run it? Is he going to run it 684 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 6: the way that I'm going to let him run it? 685 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 6: And if I let him run it, if I trust 686 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 6: his leadership, cool, that's doing that. But to bring a 687 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 6: player in, say I'm going to bring in a defensive 688 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 6: line coach who just got done playing. 689 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 5: The players respect him, he's relatable. 690 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 6: But you have a guy that is the defensive coordinator 691 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 6: or the head coach, I'm cautious with bringing him in 692 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 6: because are you going to undermine me? Are you truly 693 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 6: exhibiting the qualities that ad is talking about by coaching 694 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 6: them up and certain things that I just can't see 695 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 6: and being relatable to where now, what happens the one 696 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 6: moment that I call something wrong or do something and 697 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 6: it sounds idiotic. Then it's like, oh, let's not listen 698 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 6: to this guy because he hasn't played, So we're going 699 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 6: to listen to this guy. And then now guess what, 700 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 6: they're no longer respecting you and they're going to the 701 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 6: guy right here. So with certain and coaches and personnel people, ownership, 702 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 6: whatever the case may be, whoever that falls up under 703 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 6: that umbrella, guess what gets into play. Am I confident 704 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 6: enough to where I say I can still run this 705 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 6: and they can go in there and let their light shine? 706 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 6: And if you can't, that's why you say, hey, hold 707 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 6: up the horses, because players are gonna do what what 708 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 6: are we gonna do? This is the players low. It's 709 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 6: our loyalty to each other. So how many times have 710 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 6: you told somebody, hey, maybe you should take less money 711 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 6: because that's a better situation over there, play a better 712 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 6: technique over there, because yes, he's telling you that for 713 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 6: this system. But I'm gonna tell you what's gonna look 714 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 6: good to twenty eight other people to get you paid 715 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 6: at the end. And now, what's good for the players 716 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 6: not always necessarily good for the organization. 717 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 3: It's just interesting because you think Tony Dungee, Tony playing 718 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 3: this leage. 719 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 4: Tony Dunye was on Super Bowl team. 720 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 3: Kellen Moore's coaching New Orleans, and I think he's done 721 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 3: a nice job with a very tough roster situation. 722 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 4: Kellen played in this league. 723 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 3: It's just it's just interacting. Not that you have to 724 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 3: have it to me. Nick Sirianni did't playing the league, 725 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 3: and he read it. 726 00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 4: Play the league. 727 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 3: They've been successful coaches, but you have an opportunity to 728 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 3: bring in someone like a thurn Dennis Thurman who played 729 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 3: in the league, coached in the league, coach Hall of 730 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 3: famers in the league, played here. Yeah, And it's just 731 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 3: interesting because when Jason Garrett got here, Jerry played that 732 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 3: up very much, and Jason was on Super Bowl teams 733 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 3: here when Wade was high. He talked about how Wade 734 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 3: had experience in Texas. So it's just interesting sometimes of 735 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 3: what we use for certain players or as coaches that 736 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 3: Jerry wants to and then others like, well what are 737 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 3: we doing here? But anyway, we got to take our 738 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 3: final break when we come back here. Javonte Williams was 739 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 3: the name that I brought up at the press conference yesterday, 740 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 3: and I was surprised at what they said about him, 741 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 3: and we'll talk about it next year. 742 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 4: Players.

I think they'll be able to make a deal. 808 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 5: Anytime that you go. 809 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 6: Somewhere being a free agent, I've been on multiple teams 810 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,399 Speaker 6: like that. One team that comes out there during free 811 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:08,959 Speaker 6: agency and takes a chance off of you, especially coming 812 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 6: off injury. I was fortunate enough to terror McQuaid then 813 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 6: go over there and the Raiders believe in me and 814 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:18,359 Speaker 6: say hey, let's do this. It's like, hey, you want 815 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 6: to give them a discount one because it's Dallas, the 816 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 6: market that you're in, but to the team that actually 817 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:24,880 Speaker 6: gave you a shot to revive your career when the 818 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 6: other one threw you to the side, he's going to 819 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 6: taste that discount. The money he's going to make off 820 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,880 Speaker 6: the field, it's going to be right there, and so 821 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 6: you're not going to overpay. The one thing that I 822 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,840 Speaker 6: do see from this is I see all three gentlemen 823 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 6: up there talking about how important he is to the 824 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,919 Speaker 6: team and getting the job done. But also we spoke 825 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 6: on this a lot of times. No buyers were more 826 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 6: so I think they're going to meet that middle ground. 827 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:47,319 Speaker 6: It's just about how much is. 828 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 7: Going to be there, And yeah, I think that, you know, 829 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,799 Speaker 7: he definitely showed and improved last year. That was one 830 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 7: of the biggest question marks I had going into the 831 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 7: season and especially in the preseason, that being able to 832 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 7: see what he was able to do. But he showed 833 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 7: that he basedasically not basically that he definitely deserves to 834 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 7: be brought back. And he also did did pretty well 835 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 7: in the past game too as far as run blocking 836 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:11,479 Speaker 7: and stuff like that, so pass protection. So that being said, 837 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 7: you know, you know, you got to proven commodity in 838 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 7: the building now, just like we said, do not overpay 839 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 7: for it though, you know what I mean. And at 840 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 7: the same time, you still got to have a one 841 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 7: A and a one B. And I think it wasn't 842 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 7: Blue last year, but it was the Davis kid at the. 843 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:27,240 Speaker 2: End of the season. 844 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 4: Davis. 845 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 7: Yes, I think like you definitely have to have something 846 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 7: to compliment Williams two as well. 847 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 6: And I think the good thing not to cut you 848 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 6: off new league, but that's going to be going for 849 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 6: him is that the other running backs didn't play extremely well. 850 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 6: You didn't have a one A one B. And most 851 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 6: importantly we talked about Rico Dallen and we said, hey, 852 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 6: a thousand yard rusher, lett him get out of here. 853 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 6: It's not that impressive to see how well he did 854 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 6: over there at the Panthers. I think it's like, hey, 855 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:53,360 Speaker 6: we're not going to let. 856 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 5: This go again. 857 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 6: This is another hidden gym that we can get and 858 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 6: we can pay, but not overpay and not pay top 859 00:38:58,840 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 6: dollar in the. 860 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 7: Markets that position has been devalued the way that it 861 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 7: has been it is. 862 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 5: But like I said, I think he will. This is 863 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 5: the year to leverage it. With Jerry. 864 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 6: Some of the toys that he got he didn't get 865 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,840 Speaker 6: to get last year. This year, now he gets to 866 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 6: get the ones that he want at the price that 867 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 6: he want. 868 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 3: All right, So what we'll do next time around here 869 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 3: next week when we do the show is dive into 870 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:23,880 Speaker 3: an area that Jerry addressed more so off the podium, 871 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 3: and that's the offensive line. He's very much concerned with 872 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,800 Speaker 3: the offensive line and what they're doing here going forward. 873 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 3: If I'm Tyler Gotton, I'm really worried about what's going on. 874 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 3: If I am Terrence Steele, I'm worried about where I'll 875 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 3: be playing next year.
