During the break, 0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:37.239 I will tell you exactly why, Danny McCray, I've got 0:00:37.280 --> 0:00:42.000 I have got a legitimate reason why to absolutely back 0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:44.599 up what this man said. I won't do it. I 0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:48.600 won't do it on this microphone. I got connections. I 0:00:48.680 --> 0:00:52.400 will tell you why, and you will say and when 0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:55.800 I tell you both why it, we'll step right outside here. 0:00:55.840 --> 0:01:02.360 You're gonna say, wow, I'm say he's buried. Church. This 0:01:02.440 --> 0:01:05.000 is the players I knew were scrugged. We are here 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:08.600 to talk Cowboys and Survivor because Dan was on Survivor 0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:12.080 last night. Episode actually say season forty one. What's this 0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:16.320 episode seven nine nine? It is rolling along here. Two 0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:19.680 people voted off the island yesterday, so we will dive 0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:22.080 into that in the second number two. But let us 0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:24.920 get into the Dallas Cowboys. Right out of the gate. 0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:30.520 It's seeming like Tyren Smith's will play and Terrence Still 0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:32.959 is going to the bench. WHOA, I ain't hear the 0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:35.399 second part. I knew for show what it's looking like. 0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:37.600 They say, Tyren Smith's gonna be able to jump in there. 0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:40.240 But I ain't hear the second part though they saying 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:43.040 my boys still. I'm just saying it's looking like I 0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:52.400 just you heard it, connect Ja, you heard it here yesterday, 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:54.840 say man, they can't do boy Like the moment that 0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:59.520 they decided to move still to love was the moment 0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:02.280 that they decided that Leo Collins was going to be 0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:05.520 starting right tackle for the remainder of the season. Well, 0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:08.520 I believe the swil You never know your job never 0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:10.639 safe out here. You can go out there and ball 0:02:10.680 --> 0:02:14.200 out at a specific position, they move you to another 0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:16.280 one on the opposite side to be a team player, 0:02:16.360 --> 0:02:18.320 and you go out there and you don't perform as well. 0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:21.760 But when it's time to get your job back seats 0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:27.400 taking my friend, I have a man, that's that's tough, man, 0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:31.480 because because now, like you know, I wonder like when 0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:34.760 they told him about moving to left tackle, what did 0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:36.959 they like, what how did they like approach him with it? 0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:40.000 Like position that right they probably gassed him up, like, man, look, 0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:42.240 you're one of our best offensive linemen. We don't know 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:43.960 who has the flex to be able to go right 0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:45.480 to Lefvel. We think you got it. You can do 0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:47.480 out there and help this team out. And he started 0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:49.920 to feeling I could do it. But do you think 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:53.160 they gave him like a longer term thing of like, hey, 0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:55.720 when Tyring gets back, this is what's gonna happen. Or 0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:57.840 did they just leave They just left it opened, like Okay, 0:02:57.880 --> 0:02:59.680 we're gonna be left tackle because we think you're our 0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:01.760 best option at this point. And then that's that was it. 0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:04.079 That was it. You guys are former players, but just 0:03:04.760 --> 0:03:08.040 I'm as a media guy, I'm sitting here thinking, what 0:03:08.120 --> 0:03:11.799 do they tell Terrence Steal is your next guy up? 0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:14.360 You're on the football team. You know where your role is. 0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:17.920 I mean, if somebody got in your special team spot, 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:19.760 if you got hurt in the game and there's somebody 0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:22.800 who knows to go take you, that they replace you. Okay, 0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:26.239 So Tyrn's gone at training camp when I was out there, 0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:28.560 Steal they started out with Tyan Techy, then they put 0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:31.079 Steal there, so still was the backup. So Tyran's out 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:34.960 steals the guy. If I got myself suspended and then 0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:38.200 somebody told me that I lost my spot because somebody 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:40.680 played better while I was out on suspension, I would 0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:43.240 not expect to give my spot back when somebody else 0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:45.200 got hurt and that guy had the move to go 0:03:45.240 --> 0:03:47.800 help the team. That's not the same as like, yeah, 0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:51.120 I got hurt, like like a Gallop and Wilson situation. 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:53.880 It's not the same as back the gallus, like go ahead, 0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:57.000 you in there, yeah, because it's injury like injuries happened 0:03:57.000 --> 0:03:59.200 in football. If everybody that got hurt was was open 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:01.920 to lose their job, then the game will be totally different. 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:06.440 What I'm saying is the coaching staff. I assume when 0:04:06.480 --> 0:04:08.920 they had Lele come back and he was not the 0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:11.400 starter at right tackle, that continued to leave Terren still 0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:14.680 there to play opposite of Tyrn Smith, that they told 0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:18.200 him he earned his starting spot. There is no way 0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:19.800 in the world that he was sitting in that meeting 0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:21.400 room and they didn't say, hey, man, we're leaving you 0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:24.320 here because you earned your spot. Only for the next 0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:26.120 week for him to be moved to the left and 0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:28.640 now you have to tell him why he lost his spot. 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:31.080 The one that you said that he earned because he 0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:33.880 did not lose it because he played bad, and that 0:04:33.920 --> 0:04:38.160 he earned. So like those conversations that you're having with 0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.240 these people, you had to need it left tackle because 0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:44.200 Tyrn went out. So you're the number one guy that spot. 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:46.719 I'm asking you like as a as a coach, and 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:50.480 you handling your locker room, handling your your officeive line room, 0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:53.640 how are these conversations going, Yeah, you had a need. 0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:56.560 I understand that it's the game, But this guy is 0:04:56.600 --> 0:04:58.960 a is a person in your locker room that you 0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:01.960 have respect for. Coaches have really really close connections with 0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:04.680 their players. All right, how are you How are you 0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:06.560 having this converence Like that's like me stabbing you in 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:08.680 the back as a friend. So how's the coach saying? 0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:10.320 Is he gonna be like, man, look t still just 0:05:10.400 --> 0:05:12.360 over my head, Like you know, you had a good 0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:14.120 you did a great job out there. You know you 0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:17.520 you performed admirable out there. It was up to me, 0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:19.600 It was up to me. You'd be right in that, Jerry, 0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:21.560 But this is over my head man. You know the 0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:23.839 powers that be want to see Elci back. Is that 0:05:23.839 --> 0:05:25.800 the type of conversation you have with him because it's 0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:28.560 just like, I don't see how this could work out good, 0:05:28.680 --> 0:05:30.560 you know, with with t still, because it's like, look, man, 0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:32.560 I earned that right tackle spot. Y'all moved me over 0:05:32.600 --> 0:05:34.599 there because of a necessity, and now it's time for 0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:35.880 me to go right back to the spot. I was 0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:38.520 dominating that and then y'all, y'all put Elsie up in there. 0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:41.240 Did he earn it? Did Elsie earn it? I don't 0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:44.080 think so. Do you play space? Yeah, you know what 0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:46.960 happened when you throw somebody? Well you actually you know 0:05:46.960 --> 0:05:49.680 what happen when you reneed? Yes, you know. All the 0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:53.120 books gone. So please tell me that this isn't a 0:05:53.240 --> 0:06:00.159 perfect example of a reneed. Okay, you're correct, Danny, Thank you. 0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:03.000 I understanding having because I feel like you're gonna take 0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:04.520 it back to the team perspective. But I'm just talking 0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.320 about from a human to human coach the player. And 0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:10.640 the best thing I can you know, without being in 0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:13.080 the room, not talking anybody, the best thing I could 0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:16.640 hear them say is we're going to put you back 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.920 where you're back into the original position that we had 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:22.080 for you coming into drink. I was talking to Brad Sham, 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:23.640 I think Rad Shams had he did an interview with 0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:26.240 m Linda Cone of ESPN and maybe he told her 0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:28.080 but just that or no, No No, I think it was 0:06:28.200 --> 0:06:30.040 Sean and RJ where he yes, Sean and RJ, I 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:32.599 want to fly through the family says. I anticipate Steele 0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:35.159 going back to the original role that they had for 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:37.919 him this year because that conversation which set back up, 0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:40.599 which was the swing tackle. Yes, back up that. Okay, 0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:43.240 if Tyring is out here ready to go, and you 0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:47.520 got college right there, and and above all, I hear 0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:49.880 what you're saying about the fairness. But here's the other 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:51.960 thing that you really really really got to just be 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:55.720 honest about. He's probably gonna be playing again because somebody's 0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:57.800 one of the chances of one of the two playing 0:06:57.839 --> 0:06:59.840 the rest of these football games. He got an opportunity 0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:03.000 to probably probably very small if we if we take 0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:05.520 about the percentages, what a percentage did you think the 0:07:05.520 --> 0:07:07.679 Tyre Smith and lel Calls are both going to finish 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:09.520 the season? Now it starts the rest of the rest 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:12.000 of the rest of the game, the rest of the way. 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:13.760 I mean, he got a chance to get back out there. 0:07:13.800 --> 0:07:19.960 But I believe that's relevant but it's not the it's 0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:21.480 not the thing you told his man he had now 0:07:21.480 --> 0:07:23.920 he don't have it. It's just like if you're like 0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:26.160 in your mind, you feel like Jerry knew that, like 0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:28.559 Leo's gonna be out there playing like at some point, 0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:31.280 they just don't tell the man if you If they did, 0:07:31.640 --> 0:07:33.200 we don't know if they if they if they if 0:07:33.240 --> 0:07:34.920 they told him or not. I'm assuming that they told 0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:36.720 him he earned a position. So if they did tell 0:07:36.800 --> 0:07:38.600 him that he earned it, then I don't see how 0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:41.400 you can explain away the fact that you earned this 0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:44.040 but you lost it because of whatever. They're lucky that 0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:46.240 that the guys is a young guy, like he still 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:48.680 wasn't as a second second year second so he's young, 0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:50.600 you know, so he'll take it and just like, all right, 0:07:50.600 --> 0:07:52.120 well you gotta work harder to get back out of 0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:54.280 my position. But if there was a VET in that situation, 0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:55.960 I mean, all hell would be breaking loser. What are 0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:57.680 you telling me I can't get my spot back then? 0:07:57.720 --> 0:08:00.000 I was dominating it so because a guy made him 0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:02.920 state But there allows the problem church right, Well, he 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.240 goes back to the lab and says, what do I 0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:07.960 have to do to become a starter. What do you 0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:10.800 mean I did everything that you asked me to do. 0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:13.280 I played well enough for you to say that I 0:08:13.360 --> 0:08:16.160 was the starter and I did nothing? So would you? 0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:23.480 So would you? Would you too? Before McCarthy and Phil 0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:27.240 beIN saying, all right, tiring you're playing this week, Leo, 0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:29.360 you go to left guard? Still, you go to right 0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:32.320 change this thing up. As we faced Kansas City put 0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:35.640 out a lineup we have put out this year. Yep. Absolutely, 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:38.800 But Leo would have been knowing that he was having 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:41.480 a possibility of playing left guard throughout the five games 0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:43.800 that he was missing. I mean, it wouldn't be a 0:08:43.800 --> 0:08:46.160 shot to him that he was going to play left guard. 0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:48.120 It's like, hey man, we got a guy that that 0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:50.439 stepped in his playing. Well, we think you can help 0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:52.840 us in guard. But they did that when he came back. Yeah, 0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:56.040 but but now he's going to right tackle. At the 0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:57.199 end the day, it all come down to how this 0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:01.240 coaching staff use these two players, Collins and Still. And 0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:03.440 from what all we're saying right here is it comes 0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:06.360 to me it seems to me that they think likell' 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:08.680 is the better player and that they're gonna slide him in. 0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:10.920 Isn't fair. Nah, but you know sometimes that's how the 0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:13.560 league works. Oh yeah, yeah, listen, it's gonna happen. I'm 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:15.679 just I'm just talking who's from the outside. Look I'm 0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:22.280 not though, So okay, you guys both say you'd be upset. 0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:26.040 Oh yeah, So who needs to have the conversation with 0:09:26.080 --> 0:09:31.199 you to make you, I won't say, feel better, but 0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:34.000 at least make you that you had a man to 0:09:35.360 --> 0:09:40.040 have at least has to be Steven. Steven ain't no 0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:43.360 way coming down there to talk. Still, he said, to 0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:46.560 make me feel you feel better, Killing's offensive line, coach. 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:50.360 I promise you Killing is not the one who's saying 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:53.360 who needs to be in at that position. It's it's field. 0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:55.640 If it ain't all right, well then realistically then it 0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:57.400 would have to be McCarthy now that I'd have to 0:09:57.440 --> 0:09:59.360 have a conversation with because because you know, Phil be 0:09:59.480 --> 0:10:01.240 gonna come in there. I just had this conversation. He's 0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:03.240 gonna tell you everything you want to hear. I feel 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:05.120 like at least mccarthyll coming there and he might be 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:06.559 able to keep it real with you. Like, look, man, 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:09.120 you know we feel like Elsie's the better player and 0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:11.000 we're gonna go this route. What can tell still do? 0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:12.800 I mean, we're gonna have a fit that they're gonna 0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:15.520 let me ask you this. Okay, you being in the 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:18.320 locker room being a guy who was undrafted free agent 0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:21.600 and started to play better. Had Jerry Jones after you 0:10:22.080 --> 0:10:25.240 became a starter, come through in the locker room and say, hey, man, 0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:27.160 good game. We're really glad to have you out there. 0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:29.640 Any that he ever come through shake your hand after 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:33.679 a game? Has they ever happened? So if that's the case, 0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:36.440 I would love for him to come say, man, look, hey, 0:10:36.600 --> 0:10:39.280 it's a business thing, but we really really enjoy having 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:40.920 you on the on the team, and we're gonna try 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:45.280 to find a way to maximize whatever it is that 0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:49.440 I'm saying. No, no, I'm not saying he would to 0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:51.600 make me. Yeah, that make you definite McCarthy telling you 0:10:51.600 --> 0:10:53.040 that ain't gonna make you feel better because you're like 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:55.440 you do who did it? That definitely make you feel better? 0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:57.000 And you know I was in that role kind of 0:10:57.120 --> 0:10:59.199 you know my second year going in. It was the 0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:02.040 whole off season because since the ball didn't signed back again, 0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:03.720 and it was I think the whole offseason. It was 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:05.880 either me and you or me and a Quassiat that 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:09.000 was back there balling OTAs all that. We was bawling 0:11:09.400 --> 0:11:12.320 first day, can't we bawling out the indoor? And then 0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:14.800 you know, the next day they signed sense the ball 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:16.880 to a one year. Abe Elam comes in on a 0:11:16.920 --> 0:11:18.720 one year. They just look at it. Ain't even nobody 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:20.760 talk to me. Bax cave in here was like, yeah, 0:11:20.760 --> 0:11:23.120 so we heard there's a little, you know, upset around here. 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:25.000 He acted as a group. It wasn't even a one 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:27.400 on one convo. He just as a group everybody. Yeah, 0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.040 you know, we heard there's a little rumblings of some 0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:31.680 people being upset out here. But these are my two guys, 0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:33.200 since the Ball and abe Elam. This is what I'm 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:35.160 going with. These are the starters, and that's how we're 0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:36.679 gonna go. And he just went about his bed. I 0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:38.960 was so hot because I thought I was balling, I 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:41.400 was getting interceptions. I was doing my thing. But that's 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:43.120 how the cookie crumbles. I didn't get Jerry to come 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:44.679 down and say what's up. I ain't get any any 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:50.000 of that. It was just never felt better exactly. So 0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:53.640 the question was who could make this better? All right? Yeah, 0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:55.360 I'm not saying it's going to happen. At least give 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:59.000 me rob right, somebody get back addressing the whole deep. 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:03.160 At least give me a Obviously I saw that. Still 0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:07.040 I was getting ready to say, did you have did 0:12:07.080 --> 0:12:09.520 you take it further and have that conversation? They didn't 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:11.440 even bring it up. And as a player, do you 0:12:11.480 --> 0:12:13.280 do that or do you just suck it up and 0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:15.199 take it? And I wish I would have said something, 0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:16.600 but now I just kind of ate it because I 0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:19.440 was undrafted second years, so I was just hopefully to 0:12:19.480 --> 0:12:21.560 make the team again for the following year. But now 0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:23.319 I wish I would have said something to him, like, man, 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:25.880 what you know what made y'all make this decision? Like 0:12:25.920 --> 0:12:27.920 I felt like I did all ot, I did everything right. 0:12:27.960 --> 0:12:30.079 Should up was, you know, making sure everybody was on 0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:32.120 the same page. But y'all still decided to go out 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:33.760 there and sign these two guys a couple of weeks 0:12:33.800 --> 0:12:35.160 before the season, and at like they was here in 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:37.679 OTAs or nothing. I was kind of I still a 0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:41.840 matter of fact, still two second years you said undrafted, 0:12:42.440 --> 0:12:48.920 same situation. I was still one bro this day eleven 0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:52.000 years later, eleven and he made money. He became and started. 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:56.760 He's still made as as a media person. I'm just 0:12:56.800 --> 0:13:01.199 telling you right now, you're always who else second year 0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:03.560 guy under You're not You're not ready to quote unquote 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:05.680 trust him yet It's like, hey't go get go get 0:13:05.679 --> 0:13:07.200 tight in techy. I mean that was that was your 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:11.280 thought process. I mean, think of poor Anthony Brown. How 0:13:11.280 --> 0:13:13.880 many people were out here, go get Richard Sherman, Dan Quinn, 0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:16.600 I mean the amount of Richard Sherman please bring into 0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:18.520 the Cowboy. I was fighting with some folks up here 0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:21.520 on the old Man like Richard Sherman is cooked. Okay, 0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:24.120 there's a reason why this guy. Nobody watching. This guy's 0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:30.400 robbed everybody. But the difference between you didn't get that 0:13:30.440 --> 0:13:34.359 little hurt can't play. He still had gave an opportunity 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:36.560 to show that he can ball out. He had five 0:13:36.600 --> 0:13:39.080 games to do that, and they're still going in here 0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:41.280 and bringing his replacement in. You know, I didn't get it. 0:13:41.400 --> 0:13:43.880 I was you know, ota guy. I think it's I 0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:45.920 think the thing that makes it worse is when Leo 0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:48.160 was ready to come back and play, if you had 0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:50.559 an insert if you had inserted him into the starting 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:53.920 lineup that week, it would be a totally different thing. Right, 0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:56.320 you had an opportunity to say, hey man, this is 0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:58.760 his spot, you're going back to be the swing tackle. 0:13:58.880 --> 0:14:02.960 You didn't inst You put the man in fullback and 0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:06.520 shold him that he had lost his job. Yeah, week, 0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:10.839 I mean that's I think that's it's a tough different 0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:13.320 He struggled in a position that was completely opposite of 0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:14.800 what he was playing. Like I can see if he 0:14:14.800 --> 0:14:16.400 went out there at right tackle and he felt the 0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:18.400 pressure all that Hill's back, he's right behind me, and 0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:20.240 he went out there late a stinker, but they put 0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:22.760 him on the opposite side. He laid a stinker and 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:24.760 play well the next week, and played well the next week, 0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:26.840 and then you know, it was out a cookie. Yeah, 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:28.640 you hate to see it. It's not fair. I mean, 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:31.120 whatever happens happens. I think we're still gonna be a 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:33.160 good team with either one of them the right tackle. Yeah. 0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:35.440 But as we continue to talk about sure enough that 0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:38.480 left guard spot, that's an interesting conversation for what do 0:14:38.560 --> 0:14:40.640 you do. You got Chris Jones coming to him? Yeah, 0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:44.280 you got Chris Jones. I'm gonna be real, this is uh, 0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:46.720 this is interesting. As the Cowboys are a first place 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:48.760 team right now seven and two heading on up to 0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:51.160 Kansas City to play the Chiefs. The Cowboys are underdog 0:14:51.160 --> 0:14:53.880 in the football game, but this is an area clearly 0:14:53.880 --> 0:14:59.560 to look out for. And just because Tying plays or starts, 0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:03.040 that's no guarantee. Sixty minutes later he's he's on the 0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:05.880 football field and finishes the football game. That's not a slam. 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:08.640 That's just at this point in time, these are realities 0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:12.760 about how how tiring has been been playing. Sometimes you 0:15:12.800 --> 0:15:15.080 get through it, sometimes you can't. Um the coach come 0:15:15.160 --> 0:15:18.640 tell me that I'm walking out the locker room. Hey man, listen. 0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:23.720 They stay ready. That's how they stay ready. That they 0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:26.160 see you down in they see looking down they're like, 0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:29.120 stay ready, man, And they usually be like a coach 0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:31.800 who don't even coach your position. Give me like skip 0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:35.880 beat coming. That's when you know the situation. That's where 0:15:35.880 --> 0:15:38.040 you know when you got offensive guys coming over to you. 0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:40.640 Hey man, keep your head, be ready, be ready. That's 0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:43.040 what you know. It's bad. Like I spread it everywhere, 0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:46.960 walk up to steal like you've been doing a great job. 0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:49.320 That's how you know. It's all over the building. You 0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:51.320 know they're doing your dirty man. When you on the 0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:55.440 other side coming through thing, man, that's how you remember 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:58.120 the locker room. Skip P and Shirt would come over. 0:15:58.560 --> 0:16:01.040 Hey man, before the game, y'all young bucks, but y'all 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:05.040 doing good for an hour, Our and coach Sir would 0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:06.560 come and because we used to take the early bus, 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:08.560 I Rickie thought we had to be the super early 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:10.440 and we're sitting on lockers and they will both be 0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:11.680 on the side of us, and then you know, they 0:16:11.960 --> 0:16:15.680 talk to us about being professionals, and it was great conversations, 0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:19.440 but it was they didn't coach defense. So what you're 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:22.960 thinking about to be chopping it up. I love Sherman Man. 0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:25.880 Sharon was a great, good guy, a good guy too 0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:33.480 bad to head coach side and run first break when 0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:36.960 we come back.
