And now here's my thing. 91 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: When you say that cool world, I look at it simply. Yeah, 92 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: this is performance based business. It is a business, you know, 93 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: Bob Sugar said, and jam reguards and not show friends. 94 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: It's show business. Are you or are you out? Bret 95 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: mont Hur was one for five from forty to forty nine, 96 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: and that's where you're making money. And that's not gonna 97 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: cut that gonna cut it. I mean you see all 98 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: the nutcut the nut when it's kind of nut cutting time, 99 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: Brett Mary, he couldn't do it, and you saw it 100 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: was hard to even watch. I mean the guy you 101 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 1: could see his confidence. It was it was it was 102 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: like on a on a wobbly platform for a second 103 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 1: and then it just all came crashing down. My man 104 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 1: kind of fell to pieces out there. I mean, he 105 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: missed a kick. The body language, he looked down and 106 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: just he just looked like he was disgusted with himself 107 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: and then to go out there and then I think 108 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 1: it was the next kickoff or the second half kickoff. 109 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 1: I believe you saw that. That's when it was. That's when, 110 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: that's when you knew it was pretty much pretty much 111 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 1: a rat. For My question for you as a former player, 112 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: you know when you see a kicker lose his confidence 113 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: like that, is it like, oh man, here we go. 114 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: Everybody's real nervous when he tries out there to take 115 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 1: a kick, or it's like or are you still confident 116 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 1: that he'll be able to do his job at the 117 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: end of the day. So with the guy I played with, 118 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: Dan Bailey out there, who's one of them, you know, 119 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 1: he's his story, you really, But when he did have 120 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: his little bit of slumps, I mean, everybody kind of 121 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: just kind of boosted his confidence. Kind of you got 122 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 1: this man, even if he missed one or not, the 123 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: team Cay knew he had that. That just resolved that 124 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: just be able to come back from when even when 125 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: the odds or against him, he's able to come back. 126 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: And he was able to do that for so we 127 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: never kind of faced a dire situation like this one 128 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 1: where you can tell the guys he had in a 129 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: major slump. I mean the thing about Dan Bailey, Dan 130 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: Bailey had equity and years. That is true. This is 131 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: Brent mo her second second year. And while the kicks 132 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: from fifty sixty, we're all good if you're not making 133 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: forty to forty nine. I was telling somebody the day 134 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: it said put in fantasy football terms, where we all 135 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 1: pick a kid, you're here. This is a guy you 136 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: weren't picking. And as those you know you just because 137 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 1: you're looking for people to make the kicks. I will 138 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: on my team. I will lutch to the sames. This 139 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: is as money as money gets. And when you talk 140 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: about that forty to forty nine yards, considering how and 141 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones talked about his radio show, those are turnovers 142 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: when you missed the kicks, forgether with the football, and 143 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: you know so so when you can't make from you know, 144 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: from forty to forty nine, when you can't make it. 145 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: They got a great field position here, and it's we 146 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: know in the NFL. Man, when you talk about that 147 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: field position, you change when you're sitting here, changing it 148 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: from you know, twenty to thirty yards that's two three 149 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: first downs you give it, you give eighteen two or three, 150 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: you know, two to three first downs and a drive, 151 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: you're losing. It's over. I mean, I think the crap 152 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: point of that, I think that it was it's nuts. 153 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: But do you think we ask both of y'all question, 154 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: do you think the Cowboys waited too long? There's no doubt. Absolutely. 155 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: Brick goslind Hall of Fame, Hall of Fame, Goose. Uh, 156 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: it's big on special teams. I mean, that's the things 157 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: he writes about all the time. He's just known for 158 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: his special team's work. And Goose said the problem with 159 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: the team was a lack of accountability. And he looks 160 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: at the Cowboys. And I want to tell this is 161 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: after the Chicago game. I was there in the media 162 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: scrum talking to Brett Maher.

Here's Brett Maher, right, 165 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,239 Speaker 1: do you worry about any changes come into your position 166 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: and how do you approach that mentory? And I can't. 167 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: I felt like I did a good job staying in 168 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: my lane this week, hit every ball pretty well tonight, 169 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: and I'll put my head on the pillow tonight feeling 170 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: feeling good about what I did this week and moving forward. Okay, 171 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: I hear that one you are gonna go to sleep 172 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: feeling good. You lost the game instead of making it 173 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: a ten ten game. It's now ten seven Bears and 174 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: they've got fuel position. Wow. And I'm telling you, man, 175 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: when he said that, I'm just looking at myself. I'm 176 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: just really I couldn't believe what I was here to, Like, No, no, 177 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: you're letting the team down. That's true. You know what? 178 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: That kind of reminded me of Romo's quote after the 179 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: Eagles game and oh wait, remember that when they finished 180 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: nine and seven. He kind of says, very similar to 181 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: what my heart says, is not at the end of 182 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 1: the day, it's about me. You know, I'm not gonna 183 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: necessarily worry too much about the fans. As long as 184 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: I'm comfortable with myself, I'm good. Well, he basically said, 185 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: if this is the worst thing that ever happened exactly. 186 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: Ye you know, this isn't a bad life I live now. 187 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: I'll say this m having gone to Tony's hometown and 188 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: seeing where Tony is from, and Tony being a free agent. 189 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: The way I took it knowing Tony was, Hey, look, 190 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: I got a whole lot of blessings in my life. 191 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: If I have to carry this, then I'll carry it 192 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: and I'll know, Hey, dude, this if this is the 193 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: worst thing the Lord puts on me, you know what, 194 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: I cannot I cannot complain. That was the romo I knew. 195 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: And obviously somebody once told me to new he words 196 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: have different meetings, and so from the people who took 197 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: it that way. If you didn't know Tony, you played 198 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: with Tony, yeah you were there. That was how I 199 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: took it. I didn't. I never took it as Tony 200 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 1: like man, I don't care, It's all good. I didn't 201 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: take it from Tony that way. Some other people did 202 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: it could like you said, no, you knew him personally. 203 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: I knew him personally. He did. He wasn't that type 204 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: of dude, you know, to take it like that. But 205 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: if if we're going back to the football football sense 206 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,319 Speaker 1: of things, and my man telling about he could he 207 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: could sleep like with that one, I mean, it's hard 208 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: for me to sleep. I missed two or three tackles 209 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: out there. Man, I gotta get back in the lab 210 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: like you keep missing kicks now, and here comes the 211 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: essence of the game where I just listened to myself saying, whoa, 212 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: So he misses the kick forty two yarder. All right, 213 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: it's five minutes to go in the half. So the 214 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: Bears have the ball first and thirty two. They end 215 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: up going fourteen play sixty five yards and they end 216 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: up boring um on a touchdown pass to Robinson. That's 217 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: the one where Jalen Smith ut straight right right where 218 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: they went on through ship. But that that was the 219 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,719 Speaker 1: when Jerry talks about, you know, a turnover. So it 220 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 1: goes from possibly being ten to ten today seventeen to 221 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 1: seven ball games with crazy swing and then went into 222 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: the half. I was fourteen seconds left and a half. 223 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: So that's when you know when you talk about that. 224 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: And then to say after the game, sleepy sleeping number big, 225 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: I mean that that was when I heard that, I 226 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: said to myself, do you think somebody would Bill Parcels 227 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: was here. Feel you think of kicker me feel a good. 228 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: But Bill Parcels, Jimmy was here. You think of kicker 229 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: me feeling on got because Jimmy and Bill would run 230 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: through him. And that was the thing that Rick Godson 231 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,679 Speaker 1: is spoke by. This team is too comfortable. But that 232 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: goes back to what you're saying. He should have been 233 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: cut a long time ago. I shouldn't even got to 234 00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: this point. Everybody shouldn't have got to that point at all. 235 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: And and my and my thing. You go back to 236 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: the Patriots. They're kickering number four. The kicker you sign 237 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: hi for bath this week he missed the exploy. I'm 238 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: building thanks he made a field goal, miss ex boy 239 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: build thank thanks for good. So when you've got the 240 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: best in the game forward special team's coach as well, 241 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: saying you know, we'll just we're just moving through here 242 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: to hear the Cowboys say, well, you know it's not 243 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 1: a lot out there. It doesn't well what you have 244 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: this in working. But at some point in time, as 245 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: you're in a three game losing street, stop lying to yourself. 246 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: Send some message to somebody, somebody, we must get this 247 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: turned around. You right, if you know, if you don't 248 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: make an example of somebody, everybody.

Barry? If you 254 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: would have heard that would have been sick Because me 255 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: back in playing days, I'm sitting there thinking to myself, like, man, 256 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: you got one job, Like, no, it's hold. I know, kicking. 257 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: I can't go out there and kick, but that's your 258 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: one job. That's your one. I gotta worry about plays, 259 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: no real drills, not like you hit.

Just make those kicks and 262 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:23,839 Speaker 1: then in the worst matter, then you kick it out 263 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: of bounce and give up even more feel position to 264 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: the opposing I think the Bears is what average field 265 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: position was like at the forty yard line. First, it 266 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 1: was somewhere around the Yeah, it was almost watching the 267 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: Patriots game where you saw, all right, the Patriots starting 268 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: the forty and forty one.

All right, 362 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: let's talk about what was and that's the Bears game 363 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 1: twenty four is the final. Jerry Jones afterwards said it 364 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: was not an indication of what happened. He said, the 365 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: Bears took it to us, um little over the air conversation. 366 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: Your headphones here are not not here fully there on that. 367 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: So the Cowboys perfect, thank you. So the Cowboys lose 368 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: this game. Barry start with you on the defensive struggles. 369 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: And here's what came to my mind. Miss Trisky out 370 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: here looking like the white Lamar Jackson running through her. 371 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,199 Speaker 1: So four touchdowns, So I look at him. Then the 372 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: week before he got Josh Allen, same thing. Then you 373 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: got Jeff driscoll. He started it. Okay, Cousins. Look, So 374 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm sitting here and I'm looking at at this team 375 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,679 Speaker 1: and I'm just saying, they're taking guys who were struggling 376 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: in the season and they've come up with some real 377 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: good games against the Cowboys. So you tell me what's 378 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: going on. Yeah, there's I mean, to me, there's a 379 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: there's a lot of different things to point out with 380 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: this defense man, and it's and it's frightening because I 381 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: mean last year, just last year, this was a top 382 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: top ten, top five defense going into the year. Yeah, 383 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 1: at the year they play really well, and then it's 384 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 1: a statistically I mean, I think they're in the top 385 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: ten or they were in the top ten before that. Yeah, 386 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 1: the numbers were lying to animal. But there's a lot 387 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: of things going wrong. I mean, our corners, who last 388 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 1: year seem to just be able to play at a 389 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl level. They see to be getting beat with 390 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: regularity out here, and it's not like they're you know, 391 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: they're they're in coverage, but they're losing a lot of 392 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: those fifty fifty jump ball tested balls. Especially, they're losing 393 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: all of those people seem to be able to pick 394 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: on Byron Jones. I'm not I'm not quite sure how 395 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 1: you know. It's a it's a big I'm not sure 396 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 1: if it's technique, if it's the new coaching system, I'm 397 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 1: not sure what it is. But the teams were picking 398 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: on my boy, Barron Jones. And then you get to 399 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: the front seven. I've never seen, you know, a rod 400 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: Man Nelly coached team give up this much in the 401 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: run game. I mean, this is this is something that 402 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: Marion Elly he preaches on. Its you gotta be gap sound, 403 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: you gotta be gap discipline. It's almost up there with 404 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: loaves when it comes to you. And it's like from 405 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: what I seen, yeah, don't you get them great? And 406 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: ran for twenty and either running around people and it's like, um, 407 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: this is another thing. I just felt like this defense 408 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: was playing really slow and I'm not quite sure what 409 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: you know, what the point my finger on f stopping 410 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: him up Tribisky was I look at him, he I 411 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: mean he was running tight end. I never heard of 412 00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:59,959 Speaker 1: old sching for thirty some yards. I mean, look at 413 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: the runs right there. Look at that gashing them, gashing 414 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: them mis tackles, and you look at the hidden gardage, 415 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 1: look at hitting yard and this is not a team 416 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: that runs football. Well, okay, the Bears are not. That. 417 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: That's the part that I look at and I just 418 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: simply say, and Rott Marnelly was a stand up person afterwards. 419 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,479 Speaker 1: But I go back to something Sam Donald spoke about then. 420 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 1: You remember after the Jets game where he said, and 421 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: this after I've been out almost a month with Mono, Well, 422 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: the Cowboys do what they do and we were able to, 423 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,360 Speaker 1: you know, go out score, which I took him and saying, hey, look, 424 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: cowboys are kind of predictable. This is not this is 425 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 1: not anything I didn't expect. And I'm thinking to myself, 426 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: when a guy who is out with Mino can come 427 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: in complete complete twenty three passes for three hundred and 428 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: thirty eight yards and two touchdowns, this is a problem. 429 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 1: Winless team beat you. This is a problem that people 430 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 1: have figured out and cracked the coat off. This defense. Yeah, 431 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: I think I've talked to Barry and shout out to 432 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 1: Kayden Gate's co producer called for four. We've talked about 433 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: this a lot, man Um. I feel like there's scheme, 434 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: it's too easy to figure out. Predictable, very predictable. And 435 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: to their credit, you know this Rod Mellis game is 436 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 1: predicated on pressure up front, front, seventh effort and all that, 437 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 1: and also having ballhawkers in your secondary. We're not really 438 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 1: having a lot of that, right that. And the go 439 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: back to your Sam Donald thing. And I was talking 440 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: to Nate Nowton about this, why didn't we blitz Sam 441 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: Dollard more often? I saw something today We're like length 442 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: ranked like probably did last in terms of how many 443 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: times we blitz per game or percentage wise. So to me, 444 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: we're not mixing stuff up. I remember we played the 445 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: Charges a couple of years ago and Philip ribs Is 446 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: carved us. Why because he's able to stay like three 447 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 1: or four Yeah, he was like three or four steps 448 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: ahead of us. So if he can carve us like that, 449 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: that's why you see guys like Josh Allen have solid games, 450 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:48,399 Speaker 1: d driscoll have solid games, Kirk Cousins and like like 451 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: last week, mister Bisky, I think the Bears are ranked 452 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: only average, like seventeen points a game. Seventeen points a 453 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: game they put up thirty one with ease. What they 454 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 1: put up like twenty four and answer twenty four unanswered 455 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: between the second and third quarter unanswered. Yeah, so then 456 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: the piggyback on this. Yeah, so we talked about Rob Marionelli. 457 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 1: What's Chris Rochard's part in the defensive struggle. I think 458 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: he has he has to get some some type of 459 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: blame in here. I mean, we can't give him all 460 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: the all the credit when they're flying high the first 461 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: couple of weeks and then all of a sudden, now 462 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: it's just Marionelli's defense. And this is how I mean, 463 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: this is this is what's going on. I mean, he's 464 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: got he got to put blame on both of them, 465 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 1: and it's hard to to kind of pinpoint what because 466 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: it enough to go around. Okay, yeah, there's enough. So 467 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 1: then I posed this here on the players lounge, Rod 468 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: Marinelli's defense that Tampa two. Yeah, I go back to 469 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: Tampa two. That's Tony Dungee who brought it to Tampa Bay. 470 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 1: Monty Kip Kitts a coordinator, and Rod was the defensive 471 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 1: blind coach. Warren Sap first round draft pick, l McFarlane, 472 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: first round draft pick. So Tony brought that to so. 473 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 1: Tony has also been a defensive coordinator. Jim Minnesota, Minnesota, 474 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 1: John Randall Hall of Famer. This is true, Keith Mallard, 475 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: he was in Kansas City, good players there, But Tony 476 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: played his Pittsburgh. Who are his teammates, Joe Green? So 477 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: so through it. So, the Tampa two defense, all of 478 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: that is nothing more than Pittsburgh's defense that that Chuck Nolan, 479 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,959 Speaker 1: George purlis put in. It's predicated on a dude who 480 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: is in the middle, who can control things, a Joe Green, 481 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: a John Randall, a Warren Sappa. So when you start 482 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: to look at how Rod mar Lay's defense was good 483 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: and what got in Tampa Bay Soap first round pick, Bucker, 484 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 1: first round pick, Derek Brooks, first round pick, Simmon Rice. First, 485 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: you need some dudes who are some first round pick. 486 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: You need players players I can sit up here and 487 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: just rush for if I got four dudes, if I 488 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 1: got four dudes who can ride, and the Cowboys don't 489 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 1: have that. Antoine Woods, God bless them, try hard guy, 490 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: but that ain't the next Warren sapp Are they trying 491 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 1: to run a defense without the premier, blue chip talent 492 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: guys to do it. I think you're one hundred percent right. 493 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: I mean when I when the first guy that was 494 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: the main you know point he kind of gave to us, 495 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 1: It's like, you know, this is my defense, this is 496 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: you know, what we've been capable of doing. But without 497 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: the players involved in that defense, it won't come alive. 498 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 1: And I think that's what you mean you're alluding to, 499 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: and that's what's happening to right now. It's just your 500 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: players aren't making this system bump or this system become aggressive, 501 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: and it's it's a sham and comparable to those teams 502 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: in Tampa, even if you want to take into account 503 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: what Chrystal Shard had had in Seattle. Is there a 504 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: rider on this team? Is that Brandon Brown? Or on 505 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 1: this team? I go up frontabl and me bang and 506 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: you got Ben? I mean because because that and this 507 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: is my thing. Not to discount the back, but Warren 508 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 1: Tap always said it best back don't work without front first, 509 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: and then that def in that defense, it's the D 510 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: line and that's the thing you gotta have. And so 511 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: the cowboys they invested, they invested, and and the ends 512 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: are good. But those two guys on front, who's your 513 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 1: Joe Green, who's McFarland, who's your Wards? Saying you don't 514 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 1: you don't have it. You've got some guys who try 515 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 1: hard and Malie Collins. But is it time in twenty 516 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 1: twenty to go ahead? And if they're going to run 517 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: the same defense again, is it time to spend a 518 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 1: first round pick on somebody who can And I saying 519 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, because Aaron Donald's a special player who's building 520 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: a Hall of Fame type residence. But but trying to 521 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,199 Speaker 1: go out here and spend a pick on a player 522 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: like that because in the past Rod said, I'm okay, 523 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: we don't really need it, and they try to get 524 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: Tristan Hill the second round that that author, well, I 525 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: get changed, so he's on the end. I'm talking about 526 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: somebody fight in the middle. That's what I think. My 527 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: thing is trying to get somebody up here in the 528 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 1: middle who can plug a hole and take two blockers. 529 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 1: But you know right there, I mean, you've got you 530 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 1: got tank at the end. Maybe Quinny's back, but just 531 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 1: that at some point in time, I would say, yes, 532 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: the time is right, but at the same time, you 533 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: don't want to reach you know what I mean, So 534 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: you have to prove in players are you thinking might 535 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 1: more draft? It just depends on how it shakes out 536 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 1: on the free agency and and on on on the draft. 537 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 1: Then you know, I will say there's a very deep 538 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: defensive tackle class coming out this year. Okay, okay, all right, 539 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: so shout out to Kyle on that. So, um, we'll 540 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: definitely when the draft show rolls around, we'll gonna be 541 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: able to check that out. But if that player is 542 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: there and wherever they pick in the first round, I say, 543 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: definitely go for it. But they also gonna have other 544 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: needs on this roster to depending on how everything check 545 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: out with free you know what I mean. Collins he's done, 546 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: Tyrone Conford yea or probably done. You know what, Is 547 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: there a bigger need than to get a three technique 548 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: to get somebody to try to find your sat or 549 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: Joe Breen. I don't think there's a bigger need, especially 550 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: and as we said, Collins could be gone, Crawford could 551 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: be gone. You want to depend on Tristan Hill him, 552 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: you know, with Woods. Let's see what happens with what 553 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: he got. He got arrested, and so what happens with him? 554 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: I mean, could could there be a suspension? I mean, 555 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: he couldn't miss him gamming. You have to look at 556 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: that position. And most of all, how have you beaten 557 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys the past two years? Run the ball right 558 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: up the middle right all started the Cole's game last 559 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: year and also Rams game, and that is he in 560 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: the league right now? Yeah, I think playing for I 561 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: thought he was up in Detroit. Well, but he might 562 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: have got her, but I thought I'm pretty sure he 563 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: might have made his way up in Detroit. I bite 564 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: me out, but I believe that was that was the 565 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: last place that I saw him. So a dude who 566 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 1: torched his lashing their playoffs is not even active and 567 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: probably wasn't in the first string back in Detroit. No, 568 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: he wasn't. He wasn't because it was the kid from Auburn. 569 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: Carry on Johnson, carry on Johnson. So that's all you 570 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 1: need to tell. We hadn't figured it out since last year. 571 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: And like I said, the Coach game was what really 572 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 1: set it off because our linebackers, as in Layton Vanders 573 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: and jayals Smith weren't able to get off blocks. They 574 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: got the millars that yeah, and that's what set it off. 575 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: And and if you remember the preparation for the Rams game, 576 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: mcvadam said, we had we already know who he was 577 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: going to play, So we had like two or three 578 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 1: weeks to study up on the Jowboys and see what 579 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 1: the coach did and what you know, and what you 580 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: saw a lot of misdirection, a lot of stretches next 581 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: to you know, it was gaps all over the place 582 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: and we couldn't fill them all. Right, Um, so that's 583 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: what was. Let's get into what will be. That is 584 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Rams coming to town having won two 585 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: straight games. Jerry Jones had had a comment about urban 586 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: Meyer and possibly urban Meyer coaching the Cowboys will dive 587 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: in at our football phrase he's been bullocked. That's Barry Church, 588 00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: I'm new restructs. This is the players lounge raby Okay, Yes, 589 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: so are we gonna win?

Yes, before we 629 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: get into this next step, and I just want to 630 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: let you know what my favorite play of Barry Church was. 631 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: I'll tell him this all the time. Well, so twenty 632 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 1: twenty thirteen, so we're playing the Minnesota Bikers at the 633 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: Crib at atenc Stadium. So Ap breaks through the whole 634 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: right by the way. And mind you, Ap wasn't wearing 635 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: no gloves this game, so you know he was about 636 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: his business. So Ap breaks through the line right and 637 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 1: I think he about to score, like, oh man, they 638 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 1: about to go up. My man, b Church makes the 639 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: greatest tackle ever. You know, it was one hand, grabs 640 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: a boy. I needed. That's all I need. Ap on 641 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 1: the ground. I appreciate, That's all I needed. I was 642 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 1: like the Church with my man all day. Didn't get 643 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: he didn't go all day one hand And what Ap 644 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 1: say to you afterwards? He just got up on that 645 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: good tackle on the hand. And my man definitely did 646 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: carry about four of us in the ends on that 647 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:40,359 Speaker 1: he didn't. Right, Man, that was a rough game, bro, 648 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:44,880 Speaker 1: But y'all we won on the touchdown Roman on the 649 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 1: two minute draft. Yeah, my my my buried Church memory 650 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: is when he first got to the Cowboys. So I undrafted. Yeah, So, 651 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,879 Speaker 1: so I was always into looking at you know guys 652 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 1: who were free agents and and I tell you the 653 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: truth on this, and you can ask Charance new When 654 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: Tony Romo came here, I knew Tony Romo was the 655 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,319 Speaker 1: Walter play Peyton player of the year at Eastern el 656 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: Looys and Terrence had played against Romo and Carson Palmer, 657 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: and he said, you know, Tony Romo is the Carson 658 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 1: Palmer of small school quarterbacks. So it was always a 659 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: guy that I kind of like, ah, here's a free 660 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 1: agent that I thought. So anyway, Romo, I thought, Romo 661 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: was like, I like this guy. And Barry coming to Toledo, 662 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: and I remember Brandy Galloway got in on that too. 663 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:27,399 Speaker 1: Later on Eric Church Toledo up ended up making the team. 664 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 1: And then my other one is Barry is knowing that 665 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 1: he wasn't coming back. Sure I knew that about a 666 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: week's gonna be like, I can't pay back. Well, they don't. 667 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 1: They don't pay safety, they don't. You know they're there. 668 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: And that's where fans at times, I try and tell 669 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 1: there's a pattern here with every team about what they 670 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 1: value where they're going to pay. Just look at every 671 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: team has it. It's not just the Cowboys just go 672 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 1: Look consistently, the Cowboys do not put money in or 673 00:35:55,360 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 1: draft high draft picks into the safety position. Was the 674 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: last big one was actually Ken Hamlin? Oh yeah, Hamlin's 675 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,399 Speaker 1: not anything like a thirty. He get like thirty something 676 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: like that. Okay, but remember Ken came over one year 677 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 1: and then the Cowboys win was thirteen and three and 678 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: whatever twenty million people made, and then being from Arkansas here, 679 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 1: he ain't staying in the morning two years after that. 680 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: If he was to LSU he I don't think you'd 681 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: got that one. But take care of a hog man, 682 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 1: take care of yes, yes, all right, let's talk about 683 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 1: what will be here on the player's lange, and that 684 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 1: will be the Los Angeles Rams coming to Jerry World. 685 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:48,439 Speaker 1: The Cowboys six and seven, still in first place. Philly one. Okay, 686 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: they they came back and beat the Giants last night. 687 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: Not a shock, not shocked to me. It was ugly. 688 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 1: They have a whole bunch of issues itself, some issues, 689 00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: But here are the Rams. Eight and five. Cowboys have 690 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 1: to be the team with the winning record. They've got 691 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: two wins since losing to Baltimore. LA has won three 692 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 1: of their last four. Here's a couple of things that 693 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 1: stood out to me. They beat Seattle twenty eight to twelve. 694 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 1: We saw it on Sunday Night football hand one hundred 695 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 1: and sixty two yards rushing in the Arizona win, their 696 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 1: last two wins against Arizona hundred thirty two yards rushing. 697 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: And then when they beat the Chicago Bears, they had 698 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 1: one hundred and ten yards of rushing. We know what 699 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,760 Speaker 1: happens to the Cowboys when teams want to run the football. 700 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: And we go back to last year in the playoffs 701 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,880 Speaker 1: where they chewed the Cowboys up Todd Gurley over one 702 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: hundred yards. C J. Anderson running yards. I mean, did 703 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: like you said last year, they chewed them up and 704 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: spin him out last year. And we know this whole season, 705 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 1: people have been able to run the ball on his 706 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense and we hadn't figured out how the way 707 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: to stop it. And now you got Gurley coming in here, 708 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:45,799 Speaker 1: and he, like you said, the last couple of games, 709 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 1: he's going back to he's picking up stain and they're 710 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 1: giving them more and more carries than relying that much 711 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,760 Speaker 1: on on Golf's arms. They're setting up basically Golf passing 712 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,319 Speaker 1: the ball through Girley's running abilities, and that's a that's 713 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: a sticky situation for those Cowboys because if you go 714 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 1: if they go into this game and they don't take 715 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 1: away one specific thing from the Rams, they let him 716 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 1: do both. I'm telling you right now, we're wearing for 717 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 1: a long night and I don't think we'll get the dub. 718 00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: But if they're able to take away one aspect of it, 719 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: I think they got a chance. This is gonna be tough. Mann, 720 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 1: be tough man. Look, we gave up what thirty one 721 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 1: to the Barras thirty one. I think the Ram's gonna do. Man. 722 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: The problem will be not just the rushing you got Gurley. 723 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 1: Now they've got Malcolm Brown, and definitely Malcolm Brown when 724 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 1: you talk about trying to pound the ball in from 725 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: seven yards out, and he can also catch the ball. 726 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 1: So there, there's that. What what beat you last year 727 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 1: is is still there. They saved Todd Gurley, they're now 728 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 1: playing Todd Gurley now here in December they said they 729 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,320 Speaker 1: were just trying to make sure he you know, saved 730 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: his body. So you're using him now. Brandon cooks his back. 731 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 1: Part of the struggles for Jared Goff when Brandon Cooked 732 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 1: was out and he was just going to Cooper Cup. 733 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,240 Speaker 1: And then the last couple of games, people decided like that, Baltimore, 734 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,360 Speaker 1: We're gonna take Cooper Cup out. But now cooks his 735 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,360 Speaker 1: back and Robert Woods is sitting right here with one 736 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 1: on one cover scored his first touchdown other year. Last year, 737 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 1: when it comes to third down against Seattle, they were 738 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: seven or thirteen at home against Arizona, eight for fifteen. 739 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,439 Speaker 1: This is what they've done in their last two games. 740 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:11,400 Speaker 1: They found their defense. This is true. Russ Wilson. Everybody 741 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,799 Speaker 1: had Russell Wilson time lock in their fantasy league, got beaten. 742 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 1: They got beat They have found themselves. So now we 743 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 1: bring oh Kaway, Kaway's coming back with that. He's still mad, 744 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 1: still probably Probably he's still mad'st to mean probably? Okay, 745 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: let's just let's just use logic. He's hot, Let's just 746 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 1: use logic. He was a head coach. Jason Garrett had 747 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 1: an opportunity to take the Baltimore job. In Atlanta job 748 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: turned them both down to stay, got a raise. Make 749 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,320 Speaker 1: it that much more to way, you have people and 750 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 1: fans consistently say, man, we can't lose Garrett. We can't 751 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:54,600 Speaker 1: lose Garrett. You know they need to replace Way with Garrett. 752 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 1: I mean people forever today we're wanting and loving the 753 00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:00,879 Speaker 1: guy behind him. Finally it happened, he loses his job. 754 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 1: Jason gets it. When they played was it two years 755 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 1: ago they played here? Yeah, seventeen, Yeah, and came back 756 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 1: in that game. Okay, they came out and girly got going. 757 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 1: That came back in that game. The way Wade was 758 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 1: and the way they celebrated him after Sean Bag game 759 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 1: of Game Bow not over. Wasn't Wade thirteen and three 760 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 1: a year before that? Nah? They were? That was that 761 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,120 Speaker 1: was eleven and five year they'd be filling and back 762 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,479 Speaker 1: to back weeks. So the year before he got fired, 763 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: he was eleven fifty year before I got here. And 764 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 1: I remember visiting with Wade after Super Bowl fifty. I 765 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 1: was there on the field. I talked to him, and 766 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:40,440 Speaker 1: I supoke to d Ware and and Waite was as 767 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 1: great as it could be. But he still, you know, 768 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,399 Speaker 1: Wade still had the sadness about not getting it done 769 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 1: for the Cowbo. But but it's not it doesn't mean yes, 770 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 1: it means something. It still does mean something here. So um, 771 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 1: he'll be ready to go. So this is a game 772 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: in which the Cowboys have to find a way to 773 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: one run the football, run the clock, keep them off 774 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,879 Speaker 1: the field to create a turnover. Jared Goff has given 775 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 1: He's giving it up. Jared gosspan giving it away man 776 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 1: this year. And so they've got to take advantage of that. 777 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 1: They got to one unit I think that has to 778 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,399 Speaker 1: step up for this Cowboys team is the offensive line. 779 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:16,839 Speaker 1: I mean, the one's really talking about it. They're kind 780 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: of living off that you know, pass when they were reputation, 781 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: reputation when they were the Great Wall and all that 782 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: good stuff. But that that that time is beyond us 783 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: now man. And this LA team is coming in here 784 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 1: with a fierce defensive line. I got Aaron Donald, you 785 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 1: got Fowler, Brockers come like Matthews. Well. Ms Hill's nice too, man, 786 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,880 Speaker 1: He's very underrated, This is true. He was locking the 787 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 1: who they place yet he was out there. Man. I'm 788 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 1: here to say it though. I mean, Cooper might not 789 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,319 Speaker 1: catch a pass. Man, if they get if they put 790 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,239 Speaker 1: that man on, I'm telling if they put that if 791 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 1: they let's say, don't go nowhere, just go with him, 792 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 1: he might not catch a pass. Man. And you know 793 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 1: it's crazy about the Rams. When I was doing my 794 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:57,880 Speaker 1: preparation for a special edition um one of our shows 795 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 1: on our on our website here, the Rams are I 796 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 1: believe second or third in the league in sacks man yea. 797 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 1: And they started out slow. They started off slower because 798 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 1: in their defense they're they're getting the defense. Um, they're 799 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: getting it. They're around and get into shape here and 800 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,360 Speaker 1: that is uh, that's definitely something that the Cowboys had 801 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 1: to be looking out for. And by the way, going 802 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 1: back to golf, fifteen touchdowns, fourteen picks this season. Yeah, 803 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 1: oh yeah, he's he's a walking turnover that's got paid 804 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 1: crazy lately though, Yeah, that's true. Lately. He has been 805 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: playing the last two, three, three, the last four games. 806 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,440 Speaker 1: They found us a little bit, but it's it has 807 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 1: been a problem and they've but still here's a guy 808 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 1: that if you pressure him, he doesn't like pressure. He 809 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 1: called seven on seven. He's seven on seven. He's a ghost. 810 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 1: He was seeing ghost type dude. He's all, man, I 811 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:52,439 Speaker 1: gotta get it. Nobody around. But if I can little 812 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 1: off subject a little bit, because I heard I've read 813 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 1: a report about this on the way over here. What 814 00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 1: y'all think about the They talk about reseating the playoffs 815 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 1: and all that. No, that's what I agree with you 816 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:03,960 Speaker 1: one hundred percent, because I mean, you might have a 817 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:06,919 Speaker 1: LA team that might end up with ten and six 818 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 1: or eleven to five and they might not make the playoffs. 819 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:10,800 Speaker 1: When you got a team out here in the NFC 820 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 1: East that might be seven to nine, they can go. 821 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:16,320 Speaker 1: I don't agree with you one hundred percent. I think that. 822 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 1: I mean, the seating is fine. How it has just 823 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:19,359 Speaker 1: been good for a hundred years. But I just want 824 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 1: to get your thoughts on that. Yeah, I mean I 825 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 1: don't think they should like redo it at all. I mean, 826 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,400 Speaker 1: if you went to your division, you should be awarded 827 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:27,400 Speaker 1: to be able to host a playoff game, and the 828 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 1: team that they play in that playoff game, that's their 829 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 1: fault that they didn't win their division the host the 830 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 1: playoff game. I think this goes This is a cyclical thing. Remember, Okay, 831 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 1: first off, you're looking at the NFC and maybe even 832 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 1: just the whole NFL. NFC West might be the best 833 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: division out there. Oh yeah, here the Rams who went 834 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl last year, they're in third place. 835 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 1: You got you should appear you got the forty nine 836 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: Lay too fantastic. Yeah, gets to Orleans beat them in 837 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 1: their place, and then you got Seattle right there behind them. 838 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 1: So though they're gonna be two teams out there, they 839 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:00,800 Speaker 1: hear the Rams who are technic not out of this 840 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:04,719 Speaker 1: thing at eight and five, that are coming. So I 841 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,080 Speaker 1: bring that up because I remember it might have been 842 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 1: the first or second year Pete Carroll's and since Seattle 843 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:15,480 Speaker 1: they won the Division seven, everybody, oh she's terrible. As 844 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 1: the tragedy they ended up hosting again, I think they 845 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 1: beat the same thing. Might so I go back to that. 846 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 1: I remember at the time when the Browns won the 847 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 1: af This is back in the Central, the old AFC Central, 848 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 1: with an eight and eight record. So they're going to 849 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 1: be times where you just have someone who's just not 850 00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:38,319 Speaker 1: that good, which goes into college football. Sometimes you've got 851 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 1: to have a conference it's just not that good for 852 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 1: a while. Um, people saying, oh the big twelve and 853 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 1: no good, they're gonna blow it up. It's you know, 854 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 1: it's on his last legs and they couldn't get into 855 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,520 Speaker 1: college football. Laugh. And here's Oklahoma here now there, third 856 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,319 Speaker 1: year in a row. Nobody's talking about the Big twelve dying. 857 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 1: You're looking at the Pac twelve saying, my goodness, gracious, 858 00:44:54,520 --> 00:45:01,480 Speaker 1: can you guys ever get right? Yeah, Alabama took them apart, 859 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 1: took them apart. So I just think that's that. So 860 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,319 Speaker 1: much of that is just how things go and things 861 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 1: are cyclical, and to sit around here and say, no, 862 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:16,360 Speaker 1: we need to receive when nah. I still believe that 863 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:19,800 Speaker 1: every team should build their team thinking how do we 864 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 1: win our division? Makes sense because the first that's the 865 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,279 Speaker 1: first step, right. So if everybody at the beginning of 866 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 1: the year understand this is what we do, Okay, fine, Um, 867 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:36,080 Speaker 1: if you don't make it, I think there's enough. See 868 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:37,439 Speaker 1: if you can't make it in then you just can't. 869 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 1: NBA was talking about doing that as well. They come 870 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 1: having something like Nick, thank you, everybody trying you too much. 871 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 1: What they need to do is figure out how to 872 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:55,879 Speaker 1: is how they can sit around here and correct free 873 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 1: agency because they thought, hey, we're just gonna You're gonna 874 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,799 Speaker 1: offer them the Supermax and then everybody's gonna stay where 875 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 1: they are, not realizing somebody's playing like, good, let me 876 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 1: get the Supermax over there, right, I don't want it 877 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 1: that back. They would leave money on the table to 878 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 1: go play somewhere. They want to play that. So they'm 879 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 1: thinking that, Okay, well, this is gonna keep Gordon Hayward 880 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,800 Speaker 1: in Utah. It's gonna help him here. He got the 881 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 1: first day. You're Michael Jordan and the Hornets. You have 882 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 1: the option to get the Supermax to Kimball and they say, no, 883 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 1: we're not gonna do it. So he hides. Hell, I mean, 884 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:27,920 Speaker 1: the NBA has got their own age. So so this 885 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: is the whole thing of just tinkering all the time. 886 00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 1: It's the NFL. It's the number one sport in America. 887 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 1: Ain't broke, don't fix it. We are not going Okay, 888 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:38,720 Speaker 1: if the Cowboys win the NFC East nine and seven, 889 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:40,439 Speaker 1: heck have you they went to seven? Are we gonna 890 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 1: not watch? Are people America be bank It might be 891 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:48,400 Speaker 1: the number one broadcast. Ye, Cherry World will be sold out, okay, 892 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:55,840 Speaker 1: and people we'll be watching, maybe watching. So this whole receipt, no, 893 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 1: what's fair. It's not fair. I'm sorry. There's a whole 894 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:00,800 Speaker 1: lot of things about the way it is. The NFL 895 00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:03,040 Speaker 1: are not fair at all. All right, speaking of not fair, 896 00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:11,480 Speaker 1: it's getting this on the player's list Patriots. So the 897 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:15,919 Speaker 1: ninety nine cent version is the Patriots were supposedly doing 898 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 1: a documentary feature on a scouting member and they were 899 00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 1: watching the scout in Cincinnati, but then they had their 900 00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 1: camera on the field shooting the Cincinnati sidelines. They played 901 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:32,040 Speaker 1: Kansas City last week and this week they're playing Cincinnati. 902 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:35,400 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick says, no, we didn't have any to do. 903 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 1: It had nothing to do with us. That was a 904 00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:41,200 Speaker 1: different part, and whatever happened was mistakenly done. I'm trying 905 00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:43,720 Speaker 1: to figure out, because I've done these kinds of stories. 906 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:48,319 Speaker 1: If I'm doing a story on a Patriots scout, why 907 00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:51,759 Speaker 1: are you filming the Bengals sideline has nothing? Why are 908 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 1: you even at the game. The scout will not be 909 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 1: on the Cincinnati's highline at any point. If I need ben, 910 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,319 Speaker 1: if I need video, if you aren't going to follow bi, 911 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,440 Speaker 1: it's not going to be at the Patriots scout on 912 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:05,759 Speaker 1: the citcinat side. You're looking straight at the Why is 913 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,880 Speaker 1: it the camera even focus on the field. And just 914 00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:11,360 Speaker 1: for Belichick to say, you know what, it was inadverted. 915 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 1: We didn't mean to no no, no, no, no no, 916 00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:16,239 Speaker 1: and no gotta say something. They got to because what's 917 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 1: the next gonna happen is the Cleveland Brown And somebody's 918 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 1: gonna sit there and be like, oh, we we filmed it. 919 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 1: It was an accident. You can't penalize us but then 920 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 1: not penalize the Patriots. It's a slippery sot. But will 921 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:30,960 Speaker 1: they They haven't said us go back to you, man. 922 00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 1: We remember we talked about some of the players Las 923 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:35,520 Speaker 1: tw weeks ago. Bontest burfet So, Bontest Burfey gets put 924 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,400 Speaker 1: out the league. They're like, you are a repeat offender. 925 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,880 Speaker 1: We warned you, we find you. Nothing has happened. So 926 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 1: they've taken draft picts from the Patriots. They find the Patriots, 927 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:49,240 Speaker 1: and you still find yourself with this. If Roger Goodell, definitely, 928 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:53,320 Speaker 1: and if Roger Goodell and better yet make it shod 929 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:58,760 Speaker 1: con Jerry Jones, the Mayor of Family, Jeffrey Lewis, everybody, 930 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 1: everybody Jimmy happened. Really this is everybody Clark hunted, the Chiefs, 931 00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 1: the owners have to go to get down, got to 932 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:10,439 Speaker 1: put the pressure on them. Hey man, really right, how 933 00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:14,839 Speaker 1: many times do these dudes get to get away with this? Accidentally? 934 00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 1: See something? Man? It's ridiculous because like you said, I 935 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:19,560 Speaker 1: mean it's next thing. You know, all these other teams 936 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:20,880 Speaker 1: are gonna be filming this, and they go like, oh 937 00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 1: the Patriots, so why can't do and you can't sit 938 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,239 Speaker 1: there and you know, find them or suspended or give 939 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 1: them the same process be find you a couple of 940 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:29,759 Speaker 1: times ago. They're gonna keep on doing it until it 941 00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: gets to that suspension process, which I'm not understanding why 942 00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:37,359 Speaker 1: it hasn't come down like the man, the one dude. 943 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 1: I can see it was under different coaches for this man, 944 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:43,320 Speaker 1: one guy. I remember when they played the Eagles in 945 00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:46,000 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl the last time, the Eagles were running 946 00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:48,759 Speaker 1: like not necessarily a real walk through stuff because they 947 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,360 Speaker 1: were afraid of the New England filming them while they 948 00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:52,719 Speaker 1: were doing their walk I don't know if you knew 949 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 1: that it's Chris crazy. How does that? How does the 950 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,719 Speaker 1: NFL not at least like and they're trying to seem 951 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 1: like it's not a story like the you know, we'll 952 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,240 Speaker 1: give you a little fine. If there's anyone who should 953 00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:09,520 Speaker 1: be extra cost, it's Dean. The fact for Shore tells 954 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:11,879 Speaker 1: you that they they just don't care. They just give 955 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:14,120 Speaker 1: them the league to finger, all right. Jerry Jones was 956 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 1: on one or five three the Fan. He does his 957 00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 1: radio show Sean and RJ every Tuesday at eight thirty. 958 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:23,160 Speaker 1: They asked him about Ohio former Ohio State Buckeyes head 959 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:29,320 Speaker 1: coach Urban Wire, who's now a Fox broadcaster technlist coping offsets. 960 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 1: It didn't, but you've got some really fine football players 961 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,839 Speaker 1: trying to make a play, and in that particular case, 962 00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:41,319 Speaker 1: those guys got those offside penalties pre snap penalties by 963 00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,359 Speaker 1: cause they were trying to get out there and make 964 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,280 Speaker 1: a difference in the game. So I'm wrestling your question. 965 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:49,720 Speaker 1: Do we have the right attitude? Are they physically able 966 00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:53,920 Speaker 1: to have the fine you know what to win that 967 00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:58,719 Speaker 1: game and play better defense than we played against Chicago? Yes, Jerry. 968 00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 1: Before we let you go, there is a report from 969 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:05,040 Speaker 1: Jane Sayer in the NFL network. Can you confirm that 970 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:09,400 Speaker 1: report there's been a recent meeting between Steven or yourself 971 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 1: and Urban Meyer. That's not correct. I can confirm that 972 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:20,080 Speaker 1: it is absolutely not correct. With you guys, we have 973 00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:24,840 Speaker 1: not met with any coach, not met with any specifically. 974 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:29,120 Speaker 1: Why in answering that question, I don't want to imply 975 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 1: that we wouldn't in a way that would diminish the 976 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:38,920 Speaker 1: credibility of the show, in this case a player or 977 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,360 Speaker 1: somebody you're asking about. Normally, when somebody says if you 978 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,560 Speaker 1: met with such and such, are you interested in such 979 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,279 Speaker 1: and such and you said I have not, its implication 980 00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:52,359 Speaker 1: is you're not interested. That shouldn't be balked forward either. 981 00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 1: The facts are we just have not talked to any 982 00:51:55,760 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 1: coach potential coach in the NFL. Okay, So that's that's 983 00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones on one or five three the fan. I'm 984 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,040 Speaker 1: gonna ask you both right here on the players lounge, 985 00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:12,800 Speaker 1: what was your interpretation of what Jerry just said? Ben Billock, 986 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:15,560 Speaker 1: you first, Ah, it means that he didn't talk to 987 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 1: him face to face. You probably shout him a text 988 00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 1: game a little called hey rban, what's going on? Man? 989 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:22,359 Speaker 1: Just want to check in what you see, how you're doing, 990 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:24,920 Speaker 1: and we'll see what happens at the end of the year. 991 00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:26,840 Speaker 1: You know, you want to kind of gauge your interests. 992 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:28,480 Speaker 1: And you know, we were still hoping that we're gonna 993 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,320 Speaker 1: make a run. But if we don't, Jason's contract is 994 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:34,320 Speaker 1: not guaranteed after this year. So hey, if you're interested, 995 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:36,160 Speaker 1: you want to put a plug in your ear. Now, 996 00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 1: that's kind of way I took it. I mean I 997 00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:40,400 Speaker 1: took it exact way you took it. I'm thinking like 998 00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:42,680 Speaker 1: they didn't meet up in person, they didn't go out 999 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,560 Speaker 1: the lunch and discuss details all like that. But you know, 1000 00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:47,920 Speaker 1: I think there was a phone call maybe that happened, 1001 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 1: and you know he was just seeing gate like you said, 1002 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:52,799 Speaker 1: gauge in the interest level of what he would want 1003 00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:54,759 Speaker 1: to coach here or not with the Cowboys, but he 1004 00:52:54,880 --> 00:53:01,000 Speaker 1: kind of just left health exactly any stuff. Question. Do 1005 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:04,320 Speaker 1: y'all think he would be a good fit in the NFL? 1006 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 1: I think so, you know I don't either. Urban Meyer. 1007 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:13,120 Speaker 1: First off, let's talk about the Cowboys job. I've said this, 1008 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,480 Speaker 1: he said in the NFL, right right, And I think 1009 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:18,520 Speaker 1: but just just the Cowboys job in particular. Urban Meyer 1010 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:20,719 Speaker 1: is a guy who likes to be a star. You 1011 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:22,799 Speaker 1: come to the Dallas Cowboys, he's a head coach. You're 1012 00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,399 Speaker 1: not to star, you're the Coastar Cowboys feature in irban 1013 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:28,920 Speaker 1: so that's a part. And he's a notorious control freak. 1014 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:31,359 Speaker 1: This is a job, in my opinion, that someone needs 1015 00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:33,880 Speaker 1: to have NFL experience. Could urban Meyer maybe go to 1016 00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:37,480 Speaker 1: Jacksonville or or Cleveland if they make a move, or 1017 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 1: Jackson you know, New York whatever. Yeah, he could possibly do. 1018 00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:43,200 Speaker 1: A smart guy. But when I think about the Dallas Cowboys, 1019 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:44,840 Speaker 1: because that's what I'm caring about right now, what we do, 1020 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:47,000 Speaker 1: I don't see him as a fit. I'll go back 1021 00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:49,440 Speaker 1: to something Jerry Jones has said before many times, Jerry's 1022 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 1: a quote. Just because I said it doesn't make it 1023 00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:58,440 Speaker 1: so I never Oh, I believe. Okay, here's what it is. 1024 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 1: You ask me, not how he talked to nobody, But 1025 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 1: I got to tell you how to talk to nobody, 1026 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:05,359 Speaker 1: because I still got a guy who's a head coach. 1027 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:08,839 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones met with Bill Parcels at an airport, New 1028 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:12,400 Speaker 1: Jersey while Dave Campbell was still the head coach. Now, 1029 00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,239 Speaker 1: technically we all know that's not nice. That's not how 1030 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,000 Speaker 1: he supposed to do it. But he did to think 1031 00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:20,440 Speaker 1: that Jerry Jones wouldn't have a conversation with Irby By 1032 00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 1: who openly campaigned on TV talking about and USC's job 1033 00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:27,719 Speaker 1: is not available because Clay. They said, we're gonna bring 1034 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:32,960 Speaker 1: Clay Helton back. If you aren't having a conversation, if 1035 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:38,680 Speaker 1: you aren't you're not doing your job. You're not so 1036 00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:41,799 Speaker 1: you got a history, got a history already of going 1037 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:43,800 Speaker 1: out to do it. But when he says, just because 1038 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:45,319 Speaker 1: I said it doesn't make it. So I'm just telling 1039 00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:47,400 Speaker 1: you right there, that is something. And then he went 1040 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:49,840 Speaker 1: out of his way. Hey, that's not to say we 1041 00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:51,960 Speaker 1: won't talk to him. Now. I ain't talk to him, 1042 00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:53,719 Speaker 1: but I'm not saying I won't talk to me. But 1043 00:54:54,239 --> 00:55:02,319 Speaker 1: I say nothing to but I might hold him later. 1044 00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:04,960 Speaker 1: You tell him I might. Holiday don't tell him that 1045 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:06,879 Speaker 1: I'm saying, you're not worried. It's like it's all about 1046 00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:09,719 Speaker 1: how you worried it right all day long. It's like, 1047 00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:11,640 Speaker 1: you know, if I wasn't married, I date you, but 1048 00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:13,759 Speaker 1: if I'm not married, I thought, you know I would 1049 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:15,440 Speaker 1: because you look good. But you know I'm married right now. 1050 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 1: But if I got unmarried, you could be my first 1051 00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:22,480 Speaker 1: I would call you. You know that, right? Yeah? Okay, 1052 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:27,560 Speaker 1: and you know just I mean, I'm married now, but 1053 00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 1: you know, you know that's that's how I took you 1054 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 1: with Cherry. But we all but we all know as 1055 00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 1: a general manager of a team, gotta have a short list, 1056 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:40,040 Speaker 1: it's gotta be there. Yeah, everyone every athletic director. That's 1057 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:42,279 Speaker 1: a part of the job. That's true. You're not doing 1058 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:44,879 Speaker 1: the job if you do not. Urban Meyer is someone 1059 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,400 Speaker 1: that you would talk to. Would you not talk to him? 1060 00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:50,239 Speaker 1: He's been successful at every single spot of you talk. 1061 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 1: You may not hire him, but he's a someone who's 1062 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:55,640 Speaker 1: earned the right to have the conversation. All right, we 1063 00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 1: got four minutes off. I want to make sure we 1064 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:58,759 Speaker 1: get this in here. We alreay talk about the players line. 1065 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:00,960 Speaker 1: We asked Barry and Danny for football phrase, and your 1066 00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 1: phrase is keeping the cup. Yeah, so yeah, my phrase 1067 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:08,200 Speaker 1: is keeping the cup. It's strictly a defensive phrase, and 1068 00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:10,279 Speaker 1: it's for the defense. I mean, it's basically like a cup. 1069 00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 1: Like you got a cup right here and you pour 1070 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:13,840 Speaker 1: water in it. You know, the cup is keeping that 1071 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:15,600 Speaker 1: water in there. So basically look at it like that 1072 00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 1: and say, a cup is when you're going up to 1073 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,960 Speaker 1: tackle somebody, like in the Chicago Bears game when they 1074 00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,800 Speaker 1: were running all around our defense, the cup is you 1075 00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:27,000 Speaker 1: have an interior forced player that basically doesn't let anything 1076 00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:29,480 Speaker 1: get cross his face, back against the grain, back against 1077 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 1: to the defense. You have a other outside forced player 1078 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 1: and his responsibility is not to let anybody outside of him. 1079 00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 1: So that's usually your corner, your defensive end, whoever's that 1080 00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:42,439 Speaker 1: forced whoever that outside contain guy. And then the cup part, 1081 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 1: the sealer part of the cup is that what we 1082 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 1: call the apex player, and that's like your free safety 1083 00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:49,800 Speaker 1: or your linebacker coming in head first to smash on 1084 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:51,800 Speaker 1: the dude. So that cup keeping there is supposed to 1085 00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:54,719 Speaker 1: keep that running back that whoever, whoever the ball carrier is, 1086 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:56,759 Speaker 1: it's supposed to keep him in that cup to make 1087 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:59,359 Speaker 1: sure he doesn't get any yards after cats, yards after run. 1088 00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:01,920 Speaker 1: All that that we've been seeing with this defense, they 1089 00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:03,400 Speaker 1: had not been able to keep the cup. We've been 1090 00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:06,360 Speaker 1: seeing these boys get ran around, missing tackles, laughing right. 1091 00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:09,160 Speaker 1: So the football phrase of the day is and for 1092 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:12,240 Speaker 1: this defense going forward, is keeping the cup. You gotta 1093 00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:15,319 Speaker 1: keep the cup versus offenses nowadays, especially with all these 1094 00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:18,640 Speaker 1: screens and all these receiver there's a lot of them, 1095 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 1: a lot of it. So my advice going forward and 1096 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 1: the phrase of the day so everybody knows, is keeping 1097 00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 1: the cup is to eliminate explosive plays. And hopefully the 1098 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:29,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys taken either we're gonna have to steal that for 1099 00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:37,840 Speaker 1: coup for Rams Cowboys Sunday after that Cowboys in Philadelphia 1100 00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 1: al Sean Jeffrey is now out for the season foot injury. 1101 00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:49,120 Speaker 1: So that's a report out there right now. Yeah, and 1102 00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 1: this is one where somebody from Philadelphia actually shot me 1103 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:55,080 Speaker 1: at texting today. Go Dez Bryant's never Philly may may 1104 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 1: may want to call. They probably called Jordan Matthews. He didn't. 1105 00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:00,160 Speaker 1: They didn't sign him like two or three times they 1106 00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 1: got something. I mean they were down to three tight 1107 00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:05,920 Speaker 1: ends downward from drafted quarterback tern receiver. Well, my things 1108 00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 1: are just telling, you know, it was telling my guys like, look, um, 1109 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:13,280 Speaker 1: it's almost too late to bring in Dez Bryant to Philadelphia. 1110 00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:15,280 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a different type of offense and different 1111 00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:18,240 Speaker 1: terminology here, this late Lake Lake Junction in the season. 1112 00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:20,479 Speaker 1: It's got to be people who know what you didn't 1113 00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:24,680 Speaker 1: in shape right now. Um, I don't know that's going, 1114 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:27,360 Speaker 1: but just that whole premise of just you need guys 1115 00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 1: who know what it is you do and who are familiar. 1116 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:31,280 Speaker 1: That's when we bring up Jordan Mattheth. That makes sense. 1117 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:32,680 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's just too late in the sea. 1118 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:39,960 Speaker 1: What about what Deshaun Jackson. He only played like two 1119 00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:44,640 Speaker 1: games this year. Bro got that ship. So looking at 1120 00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 1: the fact that they that Philadelphia had to go to 1121 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:49,400 Speaker 1: overtime with the Giant with a backup quarterback and Eli man, 1122 00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:52,400 Speaker 1: I simply say the Cowboys could lose four straight. But 1123 00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:54,680 Speaker 1: then here it is your shot in Philadelphia against the 1124 00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:57,640 Speaker 1: team that you should have more healthy bodies. Then we 1125 00:58:57,720 --> 00:58:59,760 Speaker 1: don't know about right tackle Lane Johnson who ended up 1126 00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:04,080 Speaker 1: leaving my time. Ain't that good man? He looked bad? Yeah, 1127 00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:08,320 Speaker 1: real stuck in the last night, MANI so you could 1128 00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:10,800 Speaker 1: have you could lose, be on a four game losing treats, 1129 00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:14,120 Speaker 1: still go to Philadelphia and get this division. So it's 1130 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:17,520 Speaker 1: it's not done at all, not done at all. And 1131 00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 1: while fans can be frustrated, you can win two more 1132 00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:24,080 Speaker 1: games here and be good. I mean, you win two games, 1133 00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 1: you're hosting a playoff game. And this this Philly team 1134 00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:29,160 Speaker 1: is nothing like I mean, I wouldn't say to nothing, 1135 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:31,200 Speaker 1: but it's just like you shouldn't be scareder than man. 1136 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,520 Speaker 1: They've got they've got problems, they got big teams problem 1137 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 1: as many problems as you have. They probably have more problems. 1138 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 1: And you you're gonna definitely have more healthy bodies than 1139 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:41,600 Speaker 1: than native You're going to have, You'll you'll be able 1140 00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 1: to out talent them, for sure. You're gonna be able 1141 00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 1: to out talent them in terms of healthy bodies and 1142 00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:47,840 Speaker 1: getting out there. But that's been a problem. They've been 1143 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 1: thinking that the entire year. Yeah, exactly, but a lot 1144 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:55,240 Speaker 1: of teams they cannot think like that anymore going forward. 1145 00:59:55,360 --> 00:59:57,400 Speaker 1: But my goodness, gracious there and when it comes to 1146 00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:00,400 Speaker 1: the NFC East, they're good. That is, they'll get, not 1147 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:05,200 Speaker 1: want to get. But I mean, really that's what we 1148 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 1: know they can't do. The Rams are winning team. That's 1149 01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:11,320 Speaker 1: a problem. Philadelphia may have a winning record when they 1150 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:15,280 Speaker 1: face him, but but you look at the issues and talents. 1151 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:17,400 Speaker 1: I mean they've they've got they are, I mean, they 1152 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:19,720 Speaker 1: are truly limping to the end as much as the 1153 01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:22,360 Speaker 1: Cowboys are. And may mean when you lose Alshon Jeffrey, 1154 01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,800 Speaker 1: maybe you lose Lane Johnson. To me, who's the receiver? 1155 01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 1: By who's the next receiver? I mean literally, it's gonna 1156 01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:30,920 Speaker 1: be you dialing up routes now for Dallas Goddard as 1157 01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 1: a starter along with that, and didn't call j j 1158 01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:40,800 Speaker 1: arthega Whiteside he to get he pulled like a hand. 1159 01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:49,640 Speaker 1: That's why I'm saying two weeks if Friar available, huh pull. 1160 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:52,800 Speaker 1: Mike Quick got the boot the broadcasts. So I mean 1161 01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:56,440 Speaker 1: that's this. This is kind of some interesting stuff. So 1162 01:00:56,920 --> 01:01:01,560 Speaker 1: so it will be. It's not over. It's frustrated as 1163 01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:04,760 Speaker 1: fans are. This story is not over. There's still some 1164 01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 1: more pages to be written. And they could lose to 1165 01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:10,880 Speaker 1: the Rams and still be in that position because the 1166 01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:14,000 Speaker 1: final two games or Philadelphia Washington, they can still get 1167 01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:15,560 Speaker 1: in there. That ain't thing could happen once you get 1168 01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:17,600 Speaker 1: in there. In fact, we've seen that. Here's my question 1169 01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 1: for y'all. Do you think the Cowboys are desperate? I 1170 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,720 Speaker 1: would hope so, because they don't act like they desperate. 1171 01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:26,560 Speaker 1: They feel like, man, we got this division lined up, 1172 01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:28,919 Speaker 1: we can get one win and all that. Now here's 1173 01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:31,840 Speaker 1: my fear. When they do play Philly in Philly, Philli 1174 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,400 Speaker 1: is gonna be the more desperate team. And you don't 1175 01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 1: want to play with a team like that. I don't 1176 01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:39,440 Speaker 1: care how much have and all that, but if you 1177 01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:41,560 Speaker 1: let a desperate team at home play, I'll play you 1178 01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 1: at home. It can be curtains if you are on 1179 01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:46,560 Speaker 1: a four game losing streak, Is it more desperate than that? 1180 01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:50,880 Speaker 1: Knowing that this is the game that determines that extra check. 1181 01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:54,720 Speaker 1: We'll see what we've seen. We've seen them. We've seen 1182 01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 1: them get off to the last two games they lost 1183 01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:59,560 Speaker 1: the exact same way hot start and to just fall 1184 01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:02,120 Speaker 1: off a lift getting killed. So they have been able 1185 01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:03,920 Speaker 1: to get off off their backsides and be able to 1186 01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:06,000 Speaker 1: bounce back and respond to the last two games when 1187 01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:08,400 Speaker 1: it's been the complete opposite the rest of the whole 1188 01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:10,760 Speaker 1: entire season before that. They just haven't been able to 1189 01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:13,840 Speaker 1: respond to adjustment exactly. And that's it's not the players 1190 01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:17,520 Speaker 1: on the field, that's coaching. That's true. Soon we'll see 1191 01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:26,800 Speaker 1: I touched something you might you might thank you next week. 1192 01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:31,640 Speaker 1: The players, thank y'all appreciate it.
