Speaker 5: You know, Everson and I actually went to the same
Speaker 5: junior high.

Speaker 6: each other.
Speaker 5: I went to we both went to Forest Madter Junior
Speaker 5: High and then he ended up going to Berkner and
Speaker 5: I went to Lake Highlands. I think his family had
Speaker 5: moved that. But yes, and we've also have combined fifty
Speaker 5: seven career interceptions in our nfl R.

Speaker 3: after a win, so we played Yeah, we played it
Speaker 3: four times on Mondays.
Speaker 6: And when do you.
Speaker 5: Play the Charlie Pride Dallas Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 3: It's not bad.
Speaker 6: Yeah, cool to get that one going.
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's incorporate that into the arsenal there, Mickey, what
Speaker 3: do you think? I don't know.
Speaker 4: We're not big on change in this shows.
Speaker 3: I wonder why Mickey was in a sour mood all.
Speaker 6: Last week because of San Francisco.
Speaker 5: You didn't you were you not feeling great about the
Speaker 5: matchups going into Losong.
Speaker 4: Was nothing to celebrate after that game, he was reflecting
Speaker 4: the mood of the building.
Speaker 3: I think last week.
Speaker 5: So after the first two drives Monday night and so
Speaker 5: Cowboys quick out on offense and then the Chargers drive down,
Speaker 5: are you thinking, oh no.
Speaker 3: Yes, but things change. And then yesterday, Christy he was
Speaker 3: back in that Mickey mood of last week because we
Speaker 3: spent a whole segment I think talking about the punt play.
Speaker 3: We're not talking about it today. Let's yeah, we're not
Speaker 3: talking about it today. Well let's start things off by
Speaker 3: getting Christie's take. What do you say on where this
Speaker 3: team stands at the by I just taped the Mike
Speaker 3: McCarthy show moments ago, and well, we need to get
Speaker 3: your take.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you got the Did he use the roller coaster
Speaker 5: analogy that he used in his Tuesday afternoon press conference
Speaker 5: talking about the highs and lows of the season and
Speaker 5: it's a roller coaster ride? And he said roller coaster
Speaker 5: rides are fun And I'm thinking to myself, I love
Speaker 5: roller coaster rides, but they also make me a little
Speaker 5: nauseous as well.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 6: So what did Mike have to say?
Speaker 3: Well, and along those lines, you know the importance of
Speaker 3: that win over the Chargers cannot be understated because you
Speaker 3: go to the buy and or the three and three rare,
Speaker 3: especially with the opportunity that was presented this team by
Speaker 3: the Eagles losing to the Jets. I mean, you go
Speaker 3: into Sunday play, and there was a chance the Cowboys
Speaker 3: were going to be three games out of first place.
Speaker 3: They come out of the game on Monday night and
Speaker 3: they're one game out, and by the time they get
Speaker 3: back to work on next Monday, they could be a
Speaker 3: half game out of first place because the Dolphins play
Speaker 3: the Eagles on Sunday night. But he's in good spirits
Speaker 3: in some ways. Especially the early part of this week
Speaker 3: is just as busy as a regular week because you're
Speaker 3: on a different type schedule and there's things you're trying
Speaker 3: to get done early in the week so that you
Speaker 3: can take a few days off to go want your
Speaker 3: daughter play volleyball, or one of his daughters. The ninth grader,
Speaker 3: it's homecoming this week Preston Wood Christian Academy, and so
Speaker 3: he's got homecoming festivities that start with a parade on Wednesday,
Speaker 3: and he's going to try to play dad and be
Speaker 3: able to be out there.
Speaker 4: Told him Grand Marshall, or.
Speaker 3: I told him. Yeah, I think they probably scheduled their
Speaker 3: homecoming around the Cowboys bye week so that Mike McCarthy
Speaker 3: could be there.
Speaker 5: As I bet where he grew up in Pittsburgh and
Speaker 5: where the girls grew up in Wisconsin before coming down here,
Speaker 5: that they're not used to moms that are the size
Speaker 5: of this mixed shot logo here.
Speaker 3: It was the first thing he said, Well, you know
Speaker 3: how what homecoming is like in Texas, and now I'm
Speaker 3: a homecoming dad. The other thing, I made him our
Speaker 3: unsung star of the week. Why is that because of
Speaker 3: his call sheet and the reviews that covering his lips
Speaker 3: as he called in the plays. I actually thought of it,
Speaker 3: and he talked about it in his press conference yesterday,
Speaker 3: but about his mom calling him. But I thought about
Speaker 3: it during the game on Monday night. I'm sitting there
Speaker 3: on the close up shots and watching on television. It
Speaker 3: was almost as if he was making a conscious effort. Okay,
Speaker 3: he would start the play call and then during the
Speaker 3: play call he would purposely lift the call sheet up,
Speaker 3: And so I asked him about that, and yeah, it's
Speaker 3: very much on his mind, he said. He said that
Speaker 3: his mother said that five people came up to it
Speaker 3: her at church and said, Mike has got to do
Speaker 3: something about this call on the place. He's got to
Speaker 3: lift that call sheet up. But now the funt he's
Speaker 3: got to deal with the fund. The front size is
Speaker 3: too b it's.
Speaker 5: Too big, and people can read it. They'll be zooming
Speaker 5: in and.
Speaker 3: He may have a game day roll for you. You
Speaker 3: could be on the Cowboys sideline and you're the you
Speaker 3: could be the shield on the on the call sheet.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I'm too short. Plus I need the thing
Speaker 4: at sixteen point too, by the way, to be able
Speaker 4: to read it. But I tell you what do people watch?
Speaker 3: You guys watch that we're watching the game and they
Speaker 3: show a.
Speaker 5: Close they're sewing it on TV on TV, we don't
Speaker 5: get that literally where I stand behind him. Oftentimes, usually
Speaker 5: the sideline reporter can get to about the thirty yard line,
Speaker 5: and then of course, if the plays are down, especially
Speaker 5: if the plays are in the red zone, then the
Speaker 5: coach is going to be kind of sneaking down the
Speaker 5: sideline as much as possible while still staying in the
Speaker 5: coach's box, so to speak. But oftentimes I'm close enough
Speaker 5: standing behind them that I can read the sheets.
Speaker 6: Oh sure, Yeah, because it's some but it's not English.
Speaker 5: Well you can you can see it train right, scout right.
Speaker 6: I mean it's not that it's not that hard, you know.
Speaker 5: So I don't want to give any route combos five
Speaker 5: twenty five, but you know, but.
Speaker 6: Yeah you can, of course you can read it.
Speaker 4: Sure.
Speaker 3: Wow. Yeah.
Speaker 5: But going back to Monday night, though, we were talking
Speaker 5: about how after those first two drives, you're thinking, oh man,
Speaker 5: here we go. You know, the Chargers just marched right
Speaker 5: down and this looks like it might be Kellen Moore's night.
Speaker 5: But the way that the Cowboys offense answered what would
Speaker 5: have been the third drive of the game overall, the
Speaker 5: Cowboys said drive on offense. That's the one that resulted
Speaker 5: in the Dak Prescott eighteen yard touchdown run. And that's
Speaker 5: when you're like, okay, game on. I mean you could
Speaker 5: really there are points in the game on the sideline
Speaker 5: where you can feel things turned. And it's generally more
Speaker 5: second half or obviously, if it's a catalytic play like
Speaker 5: a takeaway or something like that, those things are very obvious,
Speaker 5: but there are also more subtle times where you can
Speaker 5: just kind of feel it, like the screws tightening down
Speaker 5: so to speak. And I really felt it at the
Speaker 5: end of that drive. And then when the Chargers go
Speaker 5: back out and the Cowboys defense gets the three and out,
Speaker 5: it's like, all right, here we go. This is going
Speaker 5: to be Cowboys night. Because after those first two it's like,
Speaker 5: oh gosh, this might be San Francisco all over again.
Speaker 3: It felt like it was going to be the Cowboys night.
Speaker 3: And then it wasn't until Tony Poler wrote free for
Speaker 3: a sixty yard run it started feeling again. Yeah, it
Speaker 3: really was. You felt like it was one of those
Speaker 3: games where the Cowboys appeared to be the better team
Speaker 3: but they couldn't.
Speaker 6: Getn't put him away.
Speaker 5: But the way that they consistently harassed Justin Herbert, to me,
Speaker 5: that's what was really the difference in the game. Because
Speaker 5: Justin Herbert. I was so excited about going to the
Speaker 5: game because I love to watch, like I love to
Speaker 5: watch Aaron Rodgers play non Cowboy, He's my favorite player
Speaker 5: to watch. But Justin Herbert, and we got to see
Speaker 5: him in training camp last summer when the Cowboys practiced
Speaker 5: at Cosa Mesa, and they've got so many weapons, you know,
Speaker 5: Keenan Allen a lot bigger guy than he looks on TV.
Speaker 5: And I know Austin Eckler had been coming off the
Speaker 5: ankle injury, and I don't think he looked like the
Speaker 5: Austin Eckler that you normally see. But still I was
Speaker 5: so excited about seeing this Chargers offense and Justin Herbert operated.
Speaker 5: And yeah, I think that that left finger injury affected things.
Speaker 5: The fact that he had to be in the shotgun
Speaker 5: the entire game, the fact that by the end of
Speaker 5: the first quarter there were so many any Cowboys fans
Speaker 5: making it so loud that the home team is operating
Speaker 5: on a silent count. How embarrassing for the Chargers. But
Speaker 5: the way that the Cowboys continually affected Herbert and made
Speaker 5: him look non Justin Herbert that I thought that was
Speaker 5: the storyline in the game, because they were able to
Speaker 5: stop the run and put it all on the passing
Speaker 5: game and then able to get after him in the
Speaker 5: passing game and with the pass.
Speaker 3: Runs and along those lines, even on the two overthrows
Speaker 3: of Keenan Allen okay on.
Speaker 5: The oh yeah, Bland got lucky on that, but they
Speaker 5: were affected because.
Speaker 3: Herbert was even if they weren't getting to him on
Speaker 3: those passes, he's in his mind, he doesn't know. But
Speaker 3: what Michael Parson Parsons is breathing down his neck here,
Speaker 3: you know, and exactly right. So he's trying to get
Speaker 3: it out quicker than what he normally would.
Speaker 4: Well, they better thank pressure the defense because the offense
Speaker 4: is still malfunctioning. I mean, you can talk about the
Speaker 4: game being turned around, but until the final play of
Speaker 4: the first half it was seven to seven. They were
Speaker 4: not performing offensively. They had a fourth and four at
Speaker 4: the eighteen and ended up having a punt after a penalty.
Speaker 4: One of what eleven those guys were flag happy. By
Speaker 4: the way, Yeah.
Speaker 6: Land Clark, don't give that was written Clark.
Speaker 5: We were joking yesterday on Girls Talk, Boys Talk, I
Speaker 5: said that Land Clark got more shots in an NFL
Speaker 5: game than Taylor Swift at Travis Kelcey. I mean, they
Speaker 5: were showing him the whole time. Got lee If he
Speaker 5: got paid by announcement after a flag, he'd be a rich.
Speaker 6: Man after that game.
Speaker 5: But what do you guys see with the problems with
Speaker 5: the Cowboys run game, because that is still such a
Speaker 5: huge issue.
Speaker 4: The offensive line and just not playing well. You know,
Speaker 4: we thought that getting all five guys back together again
Speaker 4: for the first time since the end of twenty twenty one,
Speaker 4: that that was going to solve all their problems. In
Speaker 4: the last two games. They haven't protected Dak very well
Speaker 4: and they haven't run the ball very well. I mean,
Speaker 4: five sacks, six quarterback hits. That's that's way too many
Speaker 4: from a defense that wasn't a team known for its defense.
Speaker 4: I'm not sure you know what the deal is. McCarthy
Speaker 4: talked about how they kind of switched things up.
Speaker 3: And talked about the unscattered looks that they right, they
Speaker 3: haven't seen before coming out of a bye. That's one
Speaker 3: thing that McCarthy was concerned about coming into the game too,
Speaker 3: since the Chargers were coming out of the buy.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that movement on the line, interior of the line,
Speaker 5: the defensive line run.
Speaker 4: And you know, other than two guys, it's still somewhat
Speaker 4: of a young group. So yeah, I mean, there was
Speaker 4: the one play where I'm assuming Tyler Smith was supposed
Speaker 4: to pick up the guy coming from his right, but
Speaker 4: when he backed up, he was turned to left and
Speaker 4: the guy just ran right through. And yeah, they just
Speaker 4: had some blocking scheme problems and it's got to improve
Speaker 4: because you know, a lot of what they did offensively,
Speaker 4: you know, you mentioned the play to Tony Pollard, Well,
Speaker 4: that wasn't the play Dak, right, Yeah, Dak scrambling and
Speaker 4: I'm sure the quarterback keeper for eighteen yard touchdown wasn't
Speaker 4: designed to be a touchdown either. So a lot of
Speaker 4: what they accomplished offensively was, you know, not on that
Speaker 4: play script that you saw. You know, Dak was having
Speaker 4: to improvise quite a bit in that game. And that's
Speaker 4: something that this offense has got to get going, because
Speaker 4: it's still not functioning the way it needs to function
Speaker 4: until what two minutes and nineteen seconds to go, they'd
Speaker 4: scored seventeen points. It's got to be better.
Speaker 5: On that eighteen yard touchdown run, of course, one where
Speaker 5: he fakes the hand off to Tony Pollard, Hey, Pollard,
Speaker 5: Pollard thought he had that. I mean, he was clamped
Speaker 5: down on it and and Dak literally rested it away
Speaker 5: from the running back. And you could see that that
Speaker 5: Dak kind of bobbled it a little bit as he
Speaker 5: was pulling the football away from Tony Pollard, but you
Speaker 5: know it was it was so convincing Paullard thought he
Speaker 5: had it, that that the defense was crashing in on it,
Speaker 5: and so that's that's why it was open for Dak
Speaker 5: to to take it all the way in from eighteen
Speaker 5: yards out.
Speaker 6: But yeah, you know see it.
Speaker 5: It's like when I saw Dak pull the ball away,
Speaker 5: I'm like, oh, because you know, Tony, like I said,
Speaker 5: he was already down on it. It ended up being
Speaker 5: a great play and a really good decision by Dak Prescott,
Speaker 5: but a little dangerous when he pulled it down.
Speaker 4: The defense then thought so too. Yeah, he crouched on
Speaker 4: it on pollar.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Pollard paid the price.
Speaker 4: For don And even out after I heard some of
Speaker 4: the highlights, Brad had to apologize because he had called it.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, totally, totally.
Speaker 3: The one I thought too.
Speaker 4: I was looking that way, and all of a sudden,
Speaker 4: I heard the crowd and I go whire, somebody cheering
Speaker 4: for a minus three run. And then I looked and
Speaker 4: he's Sam scampering into the end.
Speaker 3: I think Dak saw what he saw on film from
Speaker 3: the San Francisco game and he wasn't gonna let that.
Speaker 4: How much and how much?
Speaker 3: Yeah, And there were opportunities in that game where he
Speaker 3: could have pulled it and run too, and he wasn't
Speaker 3: about to let that happen, that opportunity slip away in
Speaker 3: this game and wound up in the end zone. So,
Speaker 3: speaking of Dak, how about this when we come back
Speaker 3: here on mix shots, It's going to be interesting to
Speaker 3: hear Mickey's reaction to one of the grades given to
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott for his performance on Monday night when we
Speaker 3: come back here on mix shots.
Speaker 4: Nothing to bark about when he gets an a.
Speaker 7: I'm Dak Prescott, quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, and.
Speaker 3: They snapped the press guy who looks it's not there.
Speaker 4: He escaped flapp He'll look for a punch down.
Speaker 7: Just like football, when it comes to crypto, it's important
Speaker 7: to have a team you can trust. With blockchain dot Com,
Speaker 7: I know I'm in good hands. Since twenty eleven, they've
Speaker 7: been trusted by millions around the world to buy, sell,
Speaker 7: and trade crypto currency.
Speaker 1: Prescott's gonna rub this himself, run it up the middle,
Speaker 1: and he scores.
Speaker 7: Whether you're new to crypto or an active trader, They've
Speaker 7: got you covered. What are you waiting for? Get started
Speaker 7: at blockchain dot Com.
Speaker 6: You know that sound anywhere?
Speaker 8: It's the crisp crunch that first nacho chip with its
Speaker 8: perfect cheese to sour cream ratio sitting atop a layer
Speaker 8: of delicious beans. It's a sip away from perfection. That's
Speaker 8: what we're looking for. Add a delicious, refreshing pepsi, and
Speaker 8: we've achieved absolute nacho nirvana. Because while you can pile
Speaker 8: those nachos high with every spicy, cheesy, savory topping, there's
Speaker 8: no topping of fool pepsi. Finish nachos better with pepsi.
Speaker 3: That's what I like.
Speaker 2: The Medal of Honor is our country's highest military award
Speaker 2: for valor in combat. More than forty million individuals have
Speaker 2: served in the armed forces since the Civil War. Fewer
Speaker 2: than four thousand have received the Medal of Honor. The
Speaker 2: National Medal of Honor Museum will be a place to

Speaker 3: Mickey back in his old role of reading the spots
Speaker 3: as Savannah Humol or not with us today. Christy Scales
Speaker 3: is here as we mix things up during this bye week.
Speaker 3: And Christy, I don't know if you've ever heard Mickey
Speaker 3: in the past go off on some of these grades
Speaker 3: that are given to players by a certain organization in
Speaker 3: the past. But he's going to love the fact that
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott was rated. He was actually tied with Matthew
Speaker 3: Stafford out of Highland Park High School with the highest
Speaker 3: grade of any quarterback in the league in Week six,
Speaker 3: according to Pro Football Focus.
Speaker 6: Mickey, what is that Mickey's favorite?
Speaker 4: It doesn't It doesn't show up on my laptop for
Speaker 4: some reason.
Speaker 3: Well, what do you think of? How did they get
Speaker 3: one right?
Speaker 4: How hard is this. He finished with a quarterback rating
Speaker 4: of one h nine point three. You don't have to
Speaker 4: be an analytic genius to figure out that he played
Speaker 4: pretty darn well right.
Speaker 3: And there were thirty teams that played. There were only
Speaker 3: two teams that had buys this week, so well.
Speaker 5: But it's interesting that he got an A because if
Speaker 5: you read only a couple of columns of the stat line,
Speaker 5: one TD pass Okay, sacked five times.
Speaker 6: Oh, he must have been horrible.
Speaker 5: But and it's true he was sacked five times, but
Speaker 5: it was really what he did with his legs extending plays.
Speaker 5: We talked about running for the first touchdown of the game.
Speaker 5: But I think that was the difference, is that of
Speaker 5: all the games that just the six games we've had
Speaker 5: this year, and we got to see more of that
Speaker 5: part of the game that we saw early in his
Speaker 5: of his game that we saw early in his career.
Speaker 6: That's what made the difference.
Speaker 4: You're being too logical when they give those grades out
Speaker 4: There ye no logic or analyzation in it. It's all analytics.
Speaker 4: They what did the numbers say? Well, he completed like
Speaker 4: sixty nine percent or seventy percent of his passes and
Speaker 4: he had a season high two hundred and seventy two yards.
Speaker 4: They don't factor that stuff in.
Speaker 5: They don't put in that he's the leading rusher in
Speaker 5: the game for your team, which you don't want.
Speaker 6: You don't want your quarterback.
Speaker 3: To be the leading Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 4: I guess, well that's true.
Speaker 3: That's true.
Speaker 4: Yeah, a little different, but.
Speaker 3: Even they don't want that. But we were talking about
Speaker 3: it yesterday. Okay, coming into the weekend, if you were
Speaker 3: to rank just based on not if you were to
Speaker 3: rank we were talking from a national perspective, Brock Purty,
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurtz, Justin Herbert, Dak Prescott, what order would they
Speaker 3: go in?
Speaker 5: Just going into the weekend shoot after seeing Brock perty
Speaker 5: from the sideline the previous week and what they did
Speaker 5: to the Cowboys, he looked like the second coming right.
Speaker 3: I mean I had him so now, boy game, I
Speaker 3: had him as the MVP winner.
Speaker 4: It would have been one. As I said yesterday, I
Speaker 4: had been one, two, three, and ten.
Speaker 3: Uh huh with back at ten.
Speaker 4: But you know, check this out.
Speaker 3: But you come out of the weekend and party was
Speaker 3: very pedestrian like with his numbers against the Browns.
Speaker 5: Have to give it to PJ with the Browns is
Speaker 5: now the second coming.
Speaker 3: And then uh and then Herts threw three picks in
Speaker 3: his loss, and then Justin Herbert on the other side.
Speaker 3: We saw them matched up against each other and it
Speaker 3: was obvious who won that quarterback battle.
Speaker 4: So when I was coming in, the fan was playing
Speaker 4: were they playing something?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 4: It was they were playing Micah's podcast, okay, and he
Speaker 4: was Michael was on a rant about so when these
Speaker 4: other three quarterbacks played so pearly in their in their losses,
Speaker 4: how come the nation doesn't criticize them the way they
Speaker 4: criticized Dak when he has a bad game, and he
Speaker 4: just went on and on and on and on right,
Speaker 4: and so it for some reason I had to look,
Speaker 4: and they only have six touchdown passes in six games.
Speaker 4: That's just not going to cut it, right. So something's
Speaker 4: got to improve greatly with this offense. I think the
Speaker 4: wide receivers only have three of those.
Speaker 5: Maybe well CD had his and then Brandon Cooks.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm saying for the sixth seasons for the season,
Speaker 4: and then the tight ends have two and I guess
Speaker 4: they had maybe four it was, but anyway, six and
Speaker 4: six games, and when I hear all these people talking
Speaker 4: about Dak, they seem to forget that very recently, in
Speaker 4: twenty twenty one, he had forty touchdown passes in eleven interceptions.
Speaker 4: So it's like that was his last full season. Last year,
Speaker 4: playing what twelve games eleven and a half, really twelve games,
Speaker 4: he had twenty three touchdown passes, and we know about
Speaker 4: the interceptions. But in twenty twenty one he showed he's
Speaker 4: capable of doing this right. Forty touchdown passes and eleven interceptions.
Speaker 4: He was awfully, awfully good, and I think people forget
Speaker 4: that that, Okay, he's got all this stuff to prove, well,
Speaker 4: the team has all this stuff to prove too. By
Speaker 4: the way, you know, he wasn't responsible for giving up
Speaker 4: what twenty three points and that playoff loss to San
Speaker 4: Francisco after that season, and you know he had the
Speaker 4: team on the move until they couldn't get the clock
Speaker 4: stopped in time. So anyway, they forget that good stuff
Speaker 4: and they hang on last year's fifteen interceptions, which half
Speaker 4: of those were not his fault. So yeah, and I
Speaker 4: think that just it's a national deal right now, pick
Speaker 4: on Dak Prescott. But Micah doesn't understand it's the Cowboys,
Speaker 4: and this is the way it's always been, win or lose,
Speaker 4: They're always most prominent in other people's analyzation.
Speaker 5: What do you see as the biggest issue with just
Speaker 5: the six touchdown passes. We've talked about how the run
Speaker 5: game needs to improve. Have we had enough of the
Speaker 5: through six games to get a good feel for what
Speaker 5: McCarthy's trying to do well.
Speaker 4: I think the biggest problem was how they won the
Speaker 4: first what yeah, blowout wins.
Speaker 6: Yeah, out wins.
Speaker 4: I mean they were so far ahead of the Giants
Speaker 4: and then it was raining and there was no sense
Speaker 4: taking chances. There was no sense after they got ahead
Speaker 4: of the Jets taken chances.
Speaker 3: Arizona they were missing three offensive linemen, right.
Speaker 4: Uh that one knew England they got up so much
Speaker 4: on them.
Speaker 3: So yeah, so you got three of the games there
Speaker 3: were blowout wins that you're not going to get and
Speaker 3: the defense was scoring touchdowns as well, and that's how
Speaker 3: you were getting ahead in those games, and so.
Speaker 4: And then you had a blowout loss. So you're now
Speaker 4: you're taking chances that you probably normally wouldn't take. And
Speaker 4: he gets internet's the three picks.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but do you do, you guys have confidence moving
Speaker 5: forward that we'll see some of that production that we saw.
Speaker 4: I have not seen it yet that the way it
Speaker 4: needs to be. Now, you know, maybe this offensive line
Speaker 4: gets together and gets a little bit of continuity, maybe
Speaker 4: they can get going.
Speaker 3: But and you've seen that in years past with offensive
Speaker 3: line where you get your five guys in there. McCarthy
Speaker 3: talks about September football, and that's why products I think
Speaker 3: of September football. It takes time, without any preseason games
Speaker 3: for an off defensive line to come together. Well, okay,
Speaker 3: let's just if you're going to give them the benefit
Speaker 3: of the doubt. They've got all five guys together now
Speaker 3: for two weeks. Now you got to buy a week. Now,
Speaker 3: let's see what happens. And they buy next week and
Speaker 3: the Eagles game, they should be.
Speaker 4: Right like not have because there was a lot of
Speaker 4: I think assignment errors that they didn't adjust to as
Speaker 4: well as they needed to. You know, and in that
Speaker 4: vein mentioned say going forward, I thought dan Quinn made
Speaker 4: a really good assessment yesterday when he did his media availability,
Speaker 4: he said he said, you know, all we did last
Speaker 4: week was look back, and he goes in my message
Speaker 4: to them by time we got to the game was
Speaker 4: we're looking forward. And he had a really good analogy.
Speaker 4: He said, when you saw in bolt Is running his
Speaker 4: one hundred meter dat, he's not looking to the side
Speaker 4: and he's not looking back, He's looking forward right, and
Speaker 4: he goes and that's what we need to do. And
Speaker 4: you know what, it reminded me of the nineteen eighty
Speaker 4: eight Olympics in Seoul. I'm sitting in the stands watching
Speaker 4: the one hundred meter final and it was going to
Speaker 4: be Carl Lewis and Ben Johnson right head to head,
Speaker 4: and they were about halfway through the hundred, and Carl
Speaker 4: Lewis does this, He looks sideways to his left, and
Speaker 4: they got to about seventy meters, he looks sideways again
Speaker 4: and he sees Ben Johnson in front of him, and
Speaker 4: he looked sideways a third time right, and Ben Johnson
Speaker 4: just smokes him to win the hundred until they had
Speaker 4: to do the.
Speaker 6: P test and then strip the medals.
Speaker 4: And then they stripped the medal from Ben Johnson and
Speaker 4: Carl Lewis was the winner. But it just dawned and
Speaker 4: I can see it vividly that you know when you
Speaker 4: run a dash. You're not looking to see where your
Speaker 4: guys are. You're looking straight ahead, right. And I can
Speaker 4: remember little league playing baseball and like run into first base.
Speaker 4: It's like, don't be looking where the ball is, run right,
Speaker 4: because that's going to slow you down.
Speaker 3: Put blinders on.
Speaker 7: That's right.
Speaker 4: And so I thought Quinn's words yesterday and what he
Speaker 4: told his defense made a lot of sense. You know,
Speaker 4: you can sit there and linger on giving up forty
Speaker 4: two points, but you don't want it to bleed into
Speaker 4: the next game. And they did a much better job
Speaker 4: against you know, the quarterback that had the third best
Speaker 4: quarterback rating in the league going into that game.
Speaker 5: And I think that the blinders and looking forward and
Speaker 5: not to the side, is something that players and coaches
Speaker 5: are used to, they really are.
Speaker 6: It's the fans in the media. We're the ones looking
Speaker 6: around and.
Speaker 4: So we're looking backwards.
Speaker 6: We're looking backwards.
Speaker 5: But also, just in regards to what we were talking
Speaker 5: about earlier, Cleveland with the surprise win over the Eagles
Speaker 5: and then San Francisco looking terrible and their entire offense
Speaker 5: guys injured, losing.
Speaker 6: It at Cleveland, and so you know, the.
Speaker 5: Cowboys can't control that they have to stay focused. But
Speaker 5: the one thing that was interesting last week following the
Speaker 5: San Francisco game, and it's because there was a Monday
Speaker 5: night game at the Chargers, but using that Wednesday to
Speaker 5: look back make more corrections against the forty nine Ers,
Speaker 5: that was really different. I don't ever recall that with
Speaker 5: some other or at least they didn't talk about it
Speaker 5: if other staffs did that, because generally it is that twenty.
Speaker 6: Four hour rule.
Speaker 5: You put it to bed by Monday afternoon, what happened Sunday,
Speaker 5: and then start moving forward and working on the next opponent.
Speaker 5: And yet it was really more of a seventy two
Speaker 5: hour rule just in terms of how they approached the
Speaker 5: week going into the Chargers, because they really.
Speaker 6: They didn't have a game.
Speaker 5: Plan installation until Thursday on the practice field.
Speaker 6: So I thought that was really interesting and unique.
Speaker 3: And yet so they looked back on Wednesday because they
Speaker 3: had the extra day the Monday night game.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they wouldn't have done it if it weren't.
Speaker 3: Currently who ever talked in the chapel. Yes, yes, really
Speaker 3: resonated with the team about that was the message looking.
Speaker 6: Forward, and they took it. They took it to heart.
Speaker 3: Yeah, took care of business on Monday night. All right,
Speaker 3: we look forward when we come back here on mix
Speaker 3: shots in just a moment.
Speaker 2: The Medal of Honor is our country's highest military award
Speaker 2: for valor in combat. More than forty million individuals have
Speaker 2: served in the armed forces since the Civil War. Fewer
Speaker 2: than four thousand have received the Medal of Honor. The
Speaker 2: National Medal of Honor Museum will be a place to
Speaker 2: preserve these legacies and inspire America. It's being built right

Speaker 3: The press guy who looks right, it's not there. He
Speaker 3: escapes left. He'll run for a first down.
Speaker 7: Just like football, when it comes to crypto, it's important
Speaker 7: to have a team you can trust. With blockchain dot Com,
Speaker 7: I know I'm in good hands. Since twenty eleven, they've
Speaker 7: been trusted by millions around the world to buy, sell,
Speaker 7: and trade cryptocurrency.
Speaker 3: Prescott's gonna run this himself, run it up the middle,

Speaker 7: Whether you're new to crypto or an active trader, they've
Speaker 7: got you covered. What are you waiting for? Get started
Speaker 7: at blockchain dot Com.
Speaker 8: You know that sound anywhere. It's the crisp crunch, that
Speaker 8: first nacho chip with its perfect cheese to sour cream
Speaker 8: ratio sitting atop a layer of delicious beans. It's a
Speaker 8: sip away from perfection. That's what we're looking for. Add
Speaker 8: a delicious, refreshing pepsi, and we've achieved absolute nacho nirvana.
Speaker 8: Because while you can pile those nachos high with every spicy, cheesy,
Speaker 8: savory topping, there's no topping a school pepsi. Finish nachos
Speaker 8: better with pepsi that's what.
Speaker 3: I like to mixed shuts.
Speaker 4: The twenty twenty four PBR World Finals are taking over
Speaker 4: at AT and T Stadium on May eighteenth and nineteen.
Speaker 4: Don't miss your chance to see the biggest and best
Speaker 4: bull riding action as the world's best riders fight for
Speaker 4: the coveted gold Buckle. It all comes down to this.
Speaker 4: Two day ticket packages are now on sale now at
Speaker 4: seat geek dot com, the official ticketing partner of AT
Speaker 4: and T Stadium.
Speaker 3: So it's May eighteenth.
Speaker 4: May eighteenth.
Speaker 3: That shows you how big of an event that That
Speaker 3: just struck me.
Speaker 4: It's today, eighteenth.
Speaker 6: October eight Yeah, because this is the finals. This isn't
Speaker 6: this is it. This isn't just one of the things.
Speaker 5: You know, like in the past, the PBR would be
Speaker 5: there at AT and T Stadium for Dirt Month, right
Speaker 5: after motocross and after monster Trucks and all that.
Speaker 6: But this is the final.
Speaker 5: So getting having our North Texas region have an AT
Speaker 5: and T Stadium rust this away from Vegas, you know
Speaker 5: a few years back, it's a big dang deal.
Speaker 6: You're so big gang deal.
Speaker 3: Seven months in advance because it's such the baseball season
Speaker 3: is still going on and they'll be in the second
Speaker 3: month of the season.
Speaker 4: But May eighteenth, that's great.
Speaker 3: May eighteenth at and T Stadium. All right, this is
Speaker 3: Cowboys players are off until Monday.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but there's some here today.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean they don't have to be here until.
Speaker 4: I think it's a young guys need to be okay,
Speaker 4: and there may be some workouts going on too.
Speaker 3: What does what does Mickey think of giving the team
Speaker 3: the full week off?
Speaker 4: Well, they have to give them four days four days
Speaker 4: for sure. You know, by time you got back, you
Speaker 4: already forfeited Tuesday. So what are you going to do today?
Speaker 3: You know, it's almost cliche that what are you going
Speaker 3: to get done during the bye that every team always said, Oh,
Speaker 3: the bye comes at a good time.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I did the math on it, and it's been thirteen
Speaker 3: weeks now since the team landed in Oxnard, California for
Speaker 3: the start of training camp.
Speaker 4: So it's always a good time.
Speaker 3: So that's that's a quarter of a year that we've
Speaker 3: been at it right now.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's good for us to have.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 5: The one thing though, is the league with the scheduling,
Speaker 5: cost the Cowboys a day and a half of bye
Speaker 5: week because it's a Monday night. It was a Monday
Speaker 5: night game instead of a Sunday and it being a
Speaker 5: night game and flying back. We actually landed fairly early,
Speaker 5: about three twenty in the morning, three twenty five, three
Speaker 5: twenty five. Mick and I were next to each other
Speaker 5: on the plane, so we were five minutes early. We're
Speaker 5: supposed to get in at three thirty. But when you
Speaker 5: and we've had three of these overnight away games, and
Speaker 5: so that costs you half a day because instead of
Speaker 5: coming in the next morning and being done by the
Speaker 5: early afternoon, now you're coming in early afternoon and you're
Speaker 5: done late afternoon. So basically the scheduling costs the guys
Speaker 5: a day and a half.
Speaker 6: Of their off week.
Speaker 5: And you know, McCarthy would have probably you know, given
Speaker 5: it to them and not have them come in for
Speaker 5: a day of practice this week. So I think the
Speaker 5: loop the league really did a job on us this year.
Speaker 4: Because if it was a home game, they would have
Speaker 4: come in on Monday, done their normal Monday schedule of
Speaker 4: lifting and jogged through and then you would have Tuesday off.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Well, even if it were in away game, if
Speaker 5: on Sunday, normal, yeah, normally away were way game but
Speaker 5: the good news is at least with some of these
Speaker 5: evening games that are coming up through the remainder of
Speaker 5: the season, at least they're at home, so that you know,
Speaker 5: that's somewhere and tear when you have all of these
Speaker 5: in so many such a condensed amount of amount of
Speaker 5: time that we've had early in the season.
Speaker 3: Wellccarthy talked about it. He looks at it this year,
Speaker 3: just the way the schedule falls, with the bye week
Speaker 3: and then the back to back Thursday games, Thanksgiving, in
Speaker 3: the in the last game in November on November thirtieth,
Speaker 3: you're looking at when they come back, they get six
Speaker 3: games in the span of thirty three days.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean the good news, you know, at least
Speaker 5: you have that one stretch where it's the three home games.
Speaker 5: That's really unusual to have three in a row at home.
Speaker 5: And part of that's that condensed time with the Thursdays.
Speaker 4: But is the Philly game a night game.
Speaker 3: Not Sunday night game at Philly That will be the
Speaker 3: right after the day after the Rangers beat the Phillies
Speaker 3: in the Game seven of the World Series.
Speaker 5: Just got it so we can be in Arlington, so's
Speaker 5: we don't get to celebrate.
Speaker 3: Rangers have home field advantage if they get to the
Speaker 3: World Series, whether they play Arizona or Philadelphia, and the
Speaker 3: Phillies are up to nothing in their series now. So
Speaker 3: if it if it comes down to Rangers Phillies, if
Speaker 3: now the Rangers win every postseason game, so it's.
Speaker 6: Not going to We're not going to get to seven,
Speaker 6: right So.
Speaker 3: But that means the Rangers would win in Philadelphia the
Speaker 3: World Series.
Speaker 5: But anyway, so Nckey and I will climb the street
Speaker 5: lamps in Philadelphia since the Phillies fans won't be doing that, right.
Speaker 3: So, but Game six and seven would be here on
Speaker 3: Friday night and Saturday night November third and fourth, and
Speaker 3: the Cowboys play at Philadelpiaya.
Speaker 5: So we'll be watching from the team hotel in Philadelphia,
Speaker 5: watching them in Arlington games.
Speaker 4: Somebody walking around like I did Sunday night with my
Speaker 4: phone in my hand, watching.
Speaker 5: When we're climbing the street lamps, they're going to have
Speaker 5: to grease the street crews are going to have to
Speaker 5: street grease the street lamps like they do.
Speaker 3: I did ask Mike McCarthy how big of a baseball
Speaker 3: fan he has been in his life, and he said, well,
Speaker 3: not recently, but once upon a time in my other life,
Speaker 3: before I got into this, I was a big baseball fan.
Speaker 3: But he said that they did watch the Rangers Astros
Speaker 3: at the team hotel on Sunday night. So I would
Speaker 3: think Dak's going to be out there watching.
Speaker 4: Some baseball, you know, yeah, tonight.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised.
Speaker 4: They'll probably get a sweet don't you think that Dak.
Speaker 3: Dak is a big supporter of all the local teams. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 3: So but you come back, are you going to be there?
Speaker 3: I am going to be there. Yep, that's right.
Speaker 4: Do you need somebody?
Speaker 3: As people ask back, but when they come back, okay,
Speaker 3: you got the Rams on October twenty ninth, okay, and
Speaker 3: the noon game at yeah, it is then November, which,
Speaker 3: by the way, that would be doing the math on it.
Speaker 3: Games one and two of the World Series would be Friday, Saturday.
Speaker 4: You're looking way ahead, you're fouling the chapel.
Speaker 3: And that would be the twenty seventh and twenty eighth
Speaker 3: is games one and two, and so I was trying
Speaker 3: to figure out if the Rangers and Cowboys will be
Speaker 3: playing on the same day in Arlington. But I don't
Speaker 3: believe there's a baseball game schedule for that Sunday, the
Speaker 3: twenty ninth. Okay, so the Rams at noon and then Philadelphia.
Speaker 3: Then you got the Giants here here at Carolina, and
Speaker 3: then you close out November Thanksgiving with Thanksgiving Day, Washington,
Speaker 3: Thanksgiving Day Seattle. That ends the next trimester. Okay, then
Speaker 3: you come back with on December tenth, you get the
Speaker 3: Mini by there and then we've talked about this, but
Speaker 3: when the schedule came out, but just to review, yes,
Speaker 3: the last quote unquote trimester of this season for the
Speaker 3: Calvin Voice. Now that we know what these teams have done,
Speaker 3: here are the first six games first six weeks. Philadelphia
Speaker 3: at home December tenth, at Buffalo December seventeenth, at Miami
Speaker 3: Christmas Eve, then home to play Detroit on December thirtieth,
Speaker 3: and then close at Washington. Those four straight games Philadelphia,
Speaker 3: at Buffalo, at Miami and Detroit. How about that?
Speaker 4: Better?
Speaker 3: Better take care of business stock in some wins, which
Speaker 3: I don't know if I've got the Eagles schedule in
Speaker 3: front of me here here it is, I do you
Speaker 3: have it? Now? The Eagles have this stretch coming up
Speaker 3: where okay, they got Miami Sunday night. Then they play
Speaker 3: at Washington, and they always have problems with Washington. Okay,
Speaker 3: it was a thirty four to thirty one overtime win
Speaker 3: their first meeting, and this one's at Washington. Then they
Speaker 3: played Dallas and they get to buy. Then they get
Speaker 3: Monday Night November twentieth at Kansas City, Oh, Sunday November
Speaker 3: twenty sixth, Buffalo O Sunday, December third, San Francisco ouch
Speaker 3: Sunday December tenth at Dallas. So they got a four
Speaker 3: game stretch there of Kansas City, Buffalo, San Francisco, Dallas.
Speaker 5: So we get them after San Francisco. So wow, yeah,
Speaker 5: after they play San Francisco.
Speaker 3: And of course nobody wins the week after they play.
Speaker 4: San Francisco, right, doesn't look like nobody wins after the
Speaker 4: week they play the.
Speaker 5: Cowboy exactly min Wow. But here's the thing, you can't.
Speaker 5: It's just like we were talking about with Cleveland taking
Speaker 5: care of business on the you just I know.
Speaker 6: We all do it. But remember you got to keep
Speaker 6: keep looking forward.
Speaker 5: Don't be Carl Lewis, built, don't be Carl Lewis, keep
Speaker 5: looking forward.
Speaker 3: The day after the San Francisco game. And I know,
Speaker 3: since you're doing the games, you are aware of this
Speaker 3: going into the San Francisco game. But the day after
Speaker 3: the San Francisco game, I'm sitting there looking at the
Speaker 3: forty nine ers roster, going they haven't lost a single
Speaker 3: player to injury this season. If they went through the
Speaker 3: first five games of the season and there were only
Speaker 3: five players who were on either pup or injured on
Speaker 3: the injured list, three of them were rookies and two
Speaker 3: of them were second year players who were not primary backup.
Speaker 5: Yes, Iuk had missed one game and that was it.
Speaker 5: And then they had a cornerback that had missed a
Speaker 5: game and that was it. Everything else was the same.
Speaker 5: They had had all their The main thing is their
Speaker 5: starting offensive line.
Speaker 3: So then then they got what happened at Cleveland. Debo
Speaker 3: goes out early in that game, McCaffrey goes out, Trent
Speaker 3: Williams went out for a little bit and then came back.
Speaker 6: I returned right, Yeah, he came back.
Speaker 3: But he was playing on one leg. It makes a difference.
Speaker 4: And again inciting a fight before the game.
Speaker 5: Again, well he was Well, what's so funny is when
Speaker 5: I'm reading this about the pregameff scuffle before the game
Speaker 5: at Cleveland. They're saying, and Trent Williams stepped in as peacemaker.
Speaker 4: I'm like, I don't think so.
Speaker 6: He may have. He may have at the end, but instigator,
Speaker 6: Oh my good.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 6: That's uh.
Speaker 4: They're going to have to start doing something about it.
Speaker 5: No, really, and something has to be done because what
Speaker 5: happened before the game with the Chargers, and a lot
Speaker 5: of it is logistics. And I know that not every
Speaker 5: stadium has multiple tunnels, you know, for entry points, or
Speaker 5: it's not like at and T Stadium where they come
Speaker 5: behind the bench, you know, the fifty yard line and
Speaker 5: each can come in from their respective sides. But you're
Speaker 5: asking for trouble when you have one team crossed through
Speaker 5: the other team to get to their side of the
Speaker 5: field for pregame. Okay, So there are some logistical things
Speaker 5: or some timing things that can be done because finds
Speaker 5: and I imagine that there will be some fines this
Speaker 5: week for all that that happened, not just with Cowboys
Speaker 5: Chargers or with Cleveland and San Francisco. It's not really
Speaker 5: a deterrent. When it's a heat of the moment kind
Speaker 5: of thing. You know it's punitive, but I don't think
Speaker 5: it's preventive, because you know, they're just reacting in the
Speaker 5: heat of the moment exactly exactly like I say, too
Speaker 5: much testosterone in too much of a confined space. Is
Speaker 5: what happened between the forty and the fifty yard line,
Speaker 5: right in front of the Cowboys bench, when the Cowboys
Speaker 5: defensive line ran past and through the Chargers defensive back
Speaker 5: pregame drill, Drill.
Speaker 4: I told you how to fix that, Just let them
Speaker 4: warm up on the other side of the field.
Speaker 6: But they they then then the other teams crossing through.
Speaker 6: So that's the point is.
Speaker 4: You have to be they would have came around the
Speaker 4: back of the end zone and came down their sideline.
Speaker 4: They don't need to instead of the Chargers were picking up.
Speaker 4: Instead of halfing the field from the fifty, you should
Speaker 4: half it down the middle. This is your side and
Speaker 4: this is the cow We've.
Speaker 5: Got the crips and the blood that's right, We've got
Speaker 5: the jets and.
Speaker 4: The criss crossing of young men jacked up the play.
Speaker 5: That's what That's what I put in my h I
Speaker 5: do contribute to sports Day Online, Dallas Morningnews dot Com,
Speaker 5: and I said, we had the ghosts brusters don't cross
Speaker 5: the streams, and we had the streams cross in pregame
Speaker 5: and just bad things happens cross.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, you know, no nine routes.
Speaker 4: It's everything across the middle. You know, run your stuff
Speaker 4: right down the sideline.
Speaker 7: I don't know how make he's going to figure that
Speaker 7: one out.
Speaker 4: You just run the nine route from the twenty to
Speaker 4: the next twenty straight down on the sideline.
Speaker 3: Well, twelve forty five looks like that shot clock got
Speaker 3: us agin.
Speaker 6: No, we were just getting going.
Speaker 4: Thank all the assistant coaches are done talking by.
Speaker 3: Now, I think, so. Yeah, yeah, they moved it up
Speaker 3: a half hour.
Speaker 6: I know, Yeah, that was good.
Speaker 4: We got the little extra scot us a half hour and.
Speaker 6: Then on Monday with mixed shots.
Speaker 5: Hopefully I get to come back and see you guys
Speaker 5: on Monday, and you know they'll be having there across
Speaker 5: the hall meetings and so that's going to be interesting
Speaker 5: and fund to talk about. So I look about what
Speaker 5: happened though, Well no, but you know, it is something interesting.
Speaker 5: There are some things that this staff does that are
Speaker 5: different from previous staffs, and the way that coach handles
Speaker 5: the young coaches on the staff and all of these
Speaker 5: extra young guys meetings and things like like that.
Speaker 3: So there's I think it's going to be interesting, not
Speaker 3: only here but around the league. The adjustments we talked
Speaker 3: about a little bit yesterday, the adjustments now that offenses
Speaker 3: make because if you look at the scores of games
Speaker 3: this past week, there were twenty five of the thirty
Speaker 3: teams in the league scored twenty one or fewer points
Speaker 3: this week. It was remarkable how low scoring games were.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and you look at the amount of offensive linemen
Speaker 5: that are injured, and that has a lot to do.
Speaker 4: With it, because no one's got enough backups to be
Speaker 4: able to sustain the injuries.
Speaker 6: There aren't even enough good ones to fill the starting roles.
Speaker 3: You're right about it, right, all right? Thanks to Christy
Speaker 3: for joining us today. Let's do it again on Monday
Speaker 3: at high noon.
Speaker 4: Go Cowboys.
Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
