Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. This is Mick Shot
Speaker 1: screaming live on Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the official
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys at now. Here are Bill Jones, Everson Walls,
Speaker 1: and Nicky Spagnola. It is time for another edition of
Speaker 1: Mick Shots. It's a Wednesday edition and that means it's
Speaker 1: the start of Carolina Panthers Week. Here inside s WBC
Speaker 1: Mortgage Studio at Ford Center at the Star in Frisco,
Speaker 1: Bill Jones, Everson Walls, and Mickey Spagnola. And there are
Speaker 1: there's football stuff on the football practice field here. So
Speaker 1: what does that mean for our football team that's supposed
Speaker 1: to be out there? Right? It's football stuff on the
Speaker 1: football practice field Bill. Um, they did a walk through
Speaker 1: this morning and then the players did their daily interviews
Speaker 1: outside our little studio here. As a matter of fact,
Speaker 1: out on the on the pathway. Uh, they may be
Speaker 1: going back out there again. Um. I have two days
Speaker 1: in walkthroughs. Because he wanted to keep the guys off
Speaker 1: their feet. So I saw the guy with the little
Speaker 1: cart that has the helmets. Yeah, he was going that
Speaker 1: a way. He was going away from the locker rooms.
Speaker 1: I saw the cart with the helmets. It is stationed
Speaker 1: at about the forty yard line. Time. Well, then maybe
Speaker 1: there are jugs machines also lined up there, and the
Speaker 1: and the little uh high rise what do you call it?
Speaker 1: Elevated camera. It's on the boat trailer. It's still out there,
Speaker 1: by the way. That's what it is. It was a
Speaker 1: sawed off boat trailer. The guy who invented this thing,
Speaker 1: uh put the mechanisms, the computer, the screen and everything
Speaker 1: that got the lady now sits there and then the
Speaker 1: thing has like an uh telescope, big thing, and it
Speaker 1: goes up in the air and it's at the end
Speaker 1: of the field. Its films practice. It's the coaches film.
Speaker 1: You haven't said one word that makes any sense telescoping.
Speaker 1: Whether you tell us yes, it's a camera, it's a camera.
Speaker 1: You guys haven't seen that. You haven't, Yes, I have.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about? Yeah, build, but but
Speaker 1: it's it's funnier to hear you just yeah. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: horror if you if you haven't seen it before, yeah,
Speaker 1: if I haven't seen it before, I cannot picture it.
Speaker 1: By the way, you discussed when we take a break,
Speaker 1: all right, But I just get the feeling when I
Speaker 1: see that football off on the football practice field that
Speaker 1: football players might be out there. Short think, you're probably right,
Speaker 1: football walkthrough of sorts. It'll be maybe at most of
Speaker 1: minicamp practice. Okay, And if they put the pads on,
Speaker 1: they normally put them on Thursday during the week, that's
Speaker 1: their one day. So you come back from a win,
Speaker 1: you come back from a Monday night, you come back
Speaker 1: from Monday night. That's right, it's Monday. Yes, So he's
Speaker 1: trying to get them ready for boil and you think
Speaker 1: about it. Every game so far this season, they've had
Speaker 1: more than a normal week to prepare for this one.
Speaker 1: Or yeah, well more up until now. This is the
Speaker 1: first time I've had well, they would have had less
Speaker 1: for the opener, because everybody else had two weeks. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's ten days, six months exactly. They had eight months
Speaker 1: right about after the last preseason. I would have to
Speaker 1: say that this this is the shortest time. Definitely is.
Speaker 1: But even their previous weeks were not normal work week.
Speaker 1: Hasn't been a normal work week until next week next
Speaker 1: week when they take on a New York Football Giants. Okay,
Speaker 1: like I said earlier before we came on the air.
Speaker 1: I hate those early games, you know, those noon games
Speaker 1: when you're at home. You know, it's it's some people
Speaker 1: like to get it over with. But I'm a late
Speaker 1: riser and and I'm late to go to bed. Oh
Speaker 1: so you could sleep the noon on the night game.
Speaker 1: God bless you, block stretch, and I think you can't
Speaker 1: do that anymore. I can sleep, yeah to noon. Yeah, way,
Speaker 1: if I had to, if I had to, if you
Speaker 1: can force me, yeah, I should would be happy to.
Speaker 1: So the inequity about this is the Cowboys are on
Speaker 1: six days and Carolina's on ten days because they played
Speaker 1: on Thursday night football. And see that's some things logistically
Speaker 1: that really it's a factor. It's a next factor in
Speaker 1: any ball game. So here we are. We just came
Speaker 1: up on Monday night. But thank god we didn't have
Speaker 1: to travel. At least it was home. Right, it's at home,
Speaker 1: so home and home. But you still have fewer days
Speaker 1: to prepare emotional game. Even though we blew him out,
Speaker 1: he's still very emotional. You know, Dak's crying before the game.
Speaker 1: He said it was sweat, yea sweat, yeah, sweat, But
Speaker 1: the emotion was there, and I would imagine he was
Speaker 1: not the only one. I mean, you gotta think about
Speaker 1: what Jordan was thinking. I mean, well, because we're kind
Speaker 1: of emotionally invested in the in the quarterback, but you,
Speaker 1: Jordan is he's been through this too. This is first
Speaker 1: game back. No one spaking a big one, a big
Speaker 1: deal about that at all, And you got to know
Speaker 1: on a personal level that he was probably feeling that
Speaker 1: emotion just like that. Wonder if anybody will asked Tristan
Speaker 1: Hill that one he finally gets after he tore his
Speaker 1: ac all in the same game, right, He'll be one
Speaker 1: microphone there, just one microphone. That's it. But that that
Speaker 1: that's still it's a personal thing that people have to
Speaker 1: go through. And Jarwin had played decent in that game,
Speaker 1: and so every time he called the ball in that game,
Speaker 1: you were the man. He had to be feeling some
Speaker 1: kind of way because each time he catches it. As
Speaker 1: much as I talk about his blocking and lack there of,
Speaker 1: he's getting the yards after the catch when he catches
Speaker 1: the ball, and these are on some big linebackers who
Speaker 1: are trying to bring him down. He's pretty stubborn about it.
Speaker 1: So I'm lacking his attitude as he comes back. All right,
Speaker 1: So as we get started on this week, we'll start
Speaker 1: turning our attention towards the Carolina Panthers, who back. And
Speaker 1: I missed this on Monday because I was so wrapped
Speaker 1: up in the Cowboys taken on the Eagles that they
Speaker 1: made a trade on Monday. Of course, they lost JC Horn,
Speaker 1: their cornerback, and they lost Christian McCaffrey, who they have
Speaker 1: not put on IR but he will not be playing
Speaker 1: on Sunday with a hamstring. Horn went on IR, but
Speaker 1: they acquired CJ. Henderson, former first round draft pick cornerback
Speaker 1: from the Jacksonville Jaguars, traded tight end Dan Arnold away
Speaker 1: for him on Monday. And now I don't c. J.
Speaker 1: Henderson did not play last Thursday against Houston because he
Speaker 1: has got a growin injury, and so I don't know
Speaker 1: if he's going to be ready to play this week
Speaker 1: or not. Supposedly, Yeah, but during the middle of the
Speaker 1: season he was an unhappy camper and right exactly, and
Speaker 1: that's why he was available to see about the groin, right,
Speaker 1: and he's yeah, that's right. It's a convenient. Now he
Speaker 1: didn't only have thirty snaps the week before he started
Speaker 1: and played a full game and they're opener and Jacksonville's opener,
Speaker 1: and then he came out. Well he only played thirty snaps,
Speaker 1: uh Jacksonville, Jacksonville. Okay, Yeah, because I saw Detroit was
Speaker 1: trying to trade Jamie. Yeah, right, that guy he plays
Speaker 1: for Detroit. Did he wants to go to a winner?
Speaker 1: Remember when he was in New England and then they
Speaker 1: got rid of him and somebody picked him up and
Speaker 1: lasted one year Cleveland, Cleveland, Yeah, and then he went
Speaker 1: to Detroit. He was unhappy everywhere he's been. I think,
Speaker 1: is he unhappy because he's getting beaten up? Well? Think
Speaker 1: Campbell was unhappy because he wasn't making any tackles. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you ain't making the plays. Man. You know where he's
Speaker 1: gonna wind up at one of those teams that have
Speaker 1: Belichick coaches. Either at Belichick got rid of him because
Speaker 1: the Giant didn't want to pay him. Yeah, they had
Speaker 1: a dispute on the contrary. I could see that. So
Speaker 1: we don't have any more Arnold to Donald to It's
Speaker 1: a tongue twister, I could I could. Oh the other
Speaker 1: thing I noticed, so you mentioned their injuries, right, or
Speaker 1: the trade. Uh, they're starting left tackle. Yes, Randy Gregory
Speaker 1: is cam irving. Wow, I thought he was still here.
Speaker 1: I thought he was the league and he is starting.
Speaker 1: He's starting. How's he been playing? Well? I don't know
Speaker 1: whether I was gonna say that. Three and though he
Speaker 1: can't bag offensively, they boded gone was having a great year.
Speaker 1: I mean he was injured all last year. How's the
Speaker 1: running game? I mean, even McCaffrey, I'm a McCaffrey. So
Speaker 1: Cuba Hubbard is the rookie out of Oklahoma State is
Speaker 1: their lead back. Now they have Royce Freeman also, and
Speaker 1: there's a couple of other guys. Have they played Have
Speaker 1: they played a game without him yet? McCaffrey, No, he
Speaker 1: got got hurt Thursday. No, he got hurt on Thursday
Speaker 1: and Hubbard came in. Hubbard. Okay, here's the other thing. Well,
Speaker 1: Hubbard Hubard. Hubbard came in had fifty two yards on
Speaker 1: eleven carries in that game. Wasn't all that bad? Not
Speaker 1: bad for twenty seven running. So here's what I didn't notice.
Speaker 1: So I pick up my NFL stats. They had the
Speaker 1: number one They have the number one defense total yards.
Speaker 1: They're also number one against the run and the pass.
Speaker 1: So I'm going are they that good or is it
Speaker 1: a product of who they played? Okay, let's hear that
Speaker 1: that schedule. They played the Jets, they played New Orleans
Speaker 1: at home after the Saints lost half their coaching staff, right,
Speaker 1: and then they played Houston, so the quarterbacks, they played
Speaker 1: the rookie with the Jets, Jack Wilson, Zach Wilson, They
Speaker 1: played jams Winston without half the coaching staff, and then
Speaker 1: Houston did not have Tyrod Taylor in the game Davis
Speaker 1: Mills started. So are they that good defensively or product
Speaker 1: of who they played and when they played it? Well, now,
Speaker 1: here's the thing about playing against a soft schedule. If
Speaker 1: you do what you're supposed to do, then you really
Speaker 1: don't give any tells. I mean, if you beat us
Speaker 1: like us against Philly, we beat them the way we
Speaker 1: were supposed to beat them. But it's not that we
Speaker 1: played beneath ourselves and we did exactly what we will. Sup.
Speaker 1: Let's let's do add that the Saints did beat the
Speaker 1: Packers thirty eight to three in their first game. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: but they had the sack exactly, Yes they did. But
Speaker 1: still they and and this that was the that and
Speaker 1: then they were still practicing at TCU. Right, Okay, so
Speaker 1: I understand you got to do what you're supposed to do.
Speaker 1: Total yards in three games, five hundred and seventy three offensively, Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: their defense, that's what they gave up. Wow, So that's
Speaker 1: one hundred ninety one yards a game. Somebody can give
Speaker 1: that up and in one half. So yes, fourteen fourteen,
Speaker 1: say that's what they want. Yeah, fourteen points, seven points
Speaker 1: in nine points is what they've given up. They're beating
Speaker 1: the beating their opponent's the way they're supposed to beating.
Speaker 1: Are they Are they going up against the steel curtain
Speaker 1: here or what doomsday? Or they haven't been challenged yet,
Speaker 1: So there's a reckoning coming right now. Having said all that,
Speaker 1: when you look at their roster and their investment in
Speaker 1: defensive personnel, if J now JC Horne is hurt, but
Speaker 1: they have six former first round draft picks on their
Speaker 1: defense now with the acquisition of C. J. Henderson, so
Speaker 1: and upfront one and we're talking about not just first
Speaker 1: round draft picks, but first half of the first round
Speaker 1: draft picks, starting with Derek Brown, defensive tackle, who is
Speaker 1: the seventh overall pick. Brian Burns, defensive end who has
Speaker 1: three sacks this season, had nine sacks last year. He
Speaker 1: was the sixteenth overall pick two years ago. Hassan Reddick
Speaker 1: has been a big pickup for them. He's got four
Speaker 1: and a half sacks. He was the thirteenth pick in
Speaker 1: the draft by Arizona four years ago. And Shack Thompson
Speaker 1: who was a late first round pick and probably their
Speaker 1: best defensive player um at linebacker, who's been in the
Speaker 1: league now for seven years. And they and they picked
Speaker 1: up A. J. Bowie right, yes, a joy. He has
Speaker 1: not played yet, but they sounds like he might be.
Speaker 1: He's getting close to being ready to go. So he
Speaker 1: may be playing on Sunday. Oh, well, Henderson take his place. Well, Henderson,
Speaker 1: he's just getting worked into the mix. They don't. They gotta,
Speaker 1: as you alluded to in Jacksonville, they got to figure
Speaker 1: out where CJ. Henderson's head is right now, right, you know,
Speaker 1: and uh, and and also if he's got a growing injury,
Speaker 1: whether he's physically able to and so listening to Matt
Speaker 1: Rule talk about him. Uh, their expectation right now is
Speaker 1: just getting to fit in with the group, you know. So,
Speaker 1: but they lost Justin Burros starting safety to uh not
Speaker 1: a couple of other They've invested heavily in defensive players
Speaker 1: since Matt got there last year. In fact, their prime,
Speaker 1: their prime second round picks. We're also defensive players. Jeremy
Speaker 1: chen starts at safety for him and he's he's a
Speaker 1: big hybrid guy who can play in the box and
Speaker 1: be a nickel linebacker as well. So is that why
Speaker 1: Justin Burris is listed third team at hurt? He's hurt. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so that sounds like that. The formula sounds well, and
Speaker 1: they are fast. They they we talk about the Cowboys
Speaker 1: looked like they were flying to the football the other night. Well,
Speaker 1: that's what the Panthers do. They fly to the football.
Speaker 1: So now we see how much flying they do when
Speaker 1: you got a big Taiwan in your face. Well, and
Speaker 1: that's the thing maybe, and we'll get into it more
Speaker 1: as the week goes on here, but maybe you know
Speaker 1: the way the Cowboys have run the football the last
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, sort of imposing their will. Um, that's
Speaker 1: that's going to be interesting to see if they can
Speaker 1: who's going to be the most stubborn, That's what you
Speaker 1: want to find that a D line or our old line.
Speaker 1: How about the matchup of offensive coordinators here, Um, you've
Speaker 1: got a Kellen Moore who turned thirty three on July fifth,
Speaker 1: and Joe Brady who turned thirty two last Thursday. So
Speaker 1: we've we're gonna be on offense. We've we've actually found
Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator younger than our offensive coordinator go up against.
Speaker 1: So they're giving up an average of forty five yards
Speaker 1: rushing a game. The reckoning is coming. The reckoning is coming.
Speaker 1: I'd love to see how Carolina attacks us as well.
Speaker 1: I mean, are they going to be like they think
Speaker 1: they can play it straight? Right? We're good enough on
Speaker 1: our total defense, Yes, stop your run and your pass
Speaker 1: without overloading to do either, because they really have a
Speaker 1: conservative offense when you look at it, it's just things
Speaker 1: like Donald is managing the offense well. And I think
Speaker 1: a lot of that is because their defense is been
Speaker 1: able to control the games. And a lot of that
Speaker 1: has to do with who they've been playing against. I
Speaker 1: mean the Jets and the Texans, and that means the
Speaker 1: game plan come came together well in those three games.
Speaker 1: And it doesn't come together well, then you see how
Speaker 1: well we improvise and Cowboys have been improvising for what
Speaker 1: three years, because we always come out do something stupid
Speaker 1: and we have to improvise and and overcome our own mistakes.
Speaker 1: But we we do overcome now, but we sometimes we
Speaker 1: don't hang on. I like to see how they improvise,
Speaker 1: you know, based on this new system, new quarterback, and
Speaker 1: when that heat comes on, and how's he going to
Speaker 1: how's he going to react? And a huge thing for
Speaker 1: them has been not getting behind, staying ahead. And now
Speaker 1: they can pin their ears back with their edge rushers
Speaker 1: who are really fast and can get to the quarterback
Speaker 1: and so and that's what the Cowboys were able to
Speaker 1: do against the Eagles the other day. They've got good games.
Speaker 1: They've got fourteen sacks in three games in three games.
Speaker 1: So and that's the thing I like about our offense.
Speaker 1: We've done some stupid things, just a few stupid things.
Speaker 1: Uh like fumbling the ball in the end from the
Speaker 1: ball in the end zone one time, tywan, you know, tyw,
Speaker 1: he whipps a guy right and the guy gets in.
Speaker 1: That was in Uh that was a game. I mean,
Speaker 1: like where did that come from? So? But what I
Speaker 1: like about us is we don't panic and the mistakes
Speaker 1: we've been making, we have overcome and I had to
Speaker 1: talk to you guys about these two busted plays. We
Speaker 1: can't you know, it's no big deal about the end
Speaker 1: of the half. You know, don't call the timehouts. But
Speaker 1: they had two weird plays. What was that in the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter? Uh? We just he kept trying to give
Speaker 1: it to the Zeke and Zeke wasn't wasn't looking for
Speaker 1: what was going on this two times? Let's talk about
Speaker 1: that when we come back here on mix shots on
Speaker 1: our Wednesday at the Star. Honey, big news, Gary? Are

Speaker 1: That was a slow read, Not really, it was very
Speaker 1: That's when I got to text Cowboys. It was text
Speaker 1: and it was all upper case, and then the next
Speaker 1: one for NFL DAL had a hyphen in between each letter,
Speaker 1: So I was thinking, now Cowboys, was I supposed to
Speaker 1: spell out cowboys. You did, and then they gave me
Speaker 1: the number on top of it. That was a lot
Speaker 1: of improvising. Asked m S notifications. That's notification. Okay, all right,
Speaker 1: So Everson, what was your question again? My question was
Speaker 1: about the two busted plays. I think it was at
Speaker 1: the beginning of the fourth quarter. I'm not sure it was, yes,
Speaker 1: because they had moved h at the end of the
Speaker 1: third quarter. Let's see here, they had moved to a
Speaker 1: first and ten, first and ten at the twenty to
Speaker 1: start the fourth quarter, and and he this is this
Speaker 1: is where he I think he was doing a reverse pivot, uh,
Speaker 1: fake handoff, and he reversed one way. Zeke was already
Speaker 1: gone on the other side of him. He was he
Speaker 1: reversed to the right. Zeke was on his left, if
Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken. So the first play of the quarter
Speaker 1: they hit Lamb for seven, Zeke runs for three first down.
Speaker 1: Then it's first in goal at the ten. Yes, And
Speaker 1: so they could not get a first down because the
Speaker 1: ball was right on the ten yard right. And I
Speaker 1: wrote down two and two, two tight ends, two running
Speaker 1: backs and and it's I wrote run out like dak
Speaker 1: ran the ball out right, and then I saw there
Speaker 1: was no one there and I said, oh, busted play.
Speaker 1: So they had two running backs and yet there were
Speaker 1: no running backs when no one was behind them. And
Speaker 1: I'm going that was a hell of a fake. But
Speaker 1: who are you facing too? Yeah, it wasn't. Just kind
Speaker 1: of confused the alignment. I would imagine, like, who was
Speaker 1: he faking too? Maybe we missed somebody, but that then
Speaker 1: he wos out. He's trying to Impavis still to the left,
Speaker 1: still looking for a player, and it looked like Zeke
Speaker 1: was like in no man's land, right. He was kind
Speaker 1: of like in purgatory. And that's the one he ended
Speaker 1: up up getting blasted, blasted in the face, um because
Speaker 1: he kept wanting to fill it to Zeke. But you know,
Speaker 1: he was he may have even gotten the loss if
Speaker 1: he you know, he got sacked but no yards, but
Speaker 1: you could tell that he kept ye wanting to fill
Speaker 1: with his and then bam, the guy comes and hits him.
Speaker 1: And then the third play was third and goal at
Speaker 1: the nine. There was a dump off to Zeke for
Speaker 1: four yards, but there was offside, so then it ended
Speaker 1: up being third and goal at the For some reason,
Speaker 1: it ended up third and goal at the seven. That's
Speaker 1: not like half the distance, is it. I don't know
Speaker 1: what happened with the sack. He lost three on the sets,
Speaker 1: so it was third and goal at the twelve twelve,
Speaker 1: and then there was an off side and then got
Speaker 1: to the seeven. There we go. Okay, So the third
Speaker 1: and goal at the seven, Dak ran for five to
Speaker 1: the two, and then they decided to go for it
Speaker 1: on fourth and goal at the two up twenty seven
Speaker 1: to fourteen. He kicked the field goal and you have
Speaker 1: a sixteen point lead, but it's still just a two
Speaker 1: possession game. And they decided with eleven twenty six to
Speaker 1: go in the fourth, we're going for the jugular here
Speaker 1: the knockout punch. Fourth and goal at the two, and
Speaker 1: he finds Cedric Wilson for the touchdown on a scramble
Speaker 1: play right right because he was trying to hit him
Speaker 1: in the back right corner of the end zone. He
Speaker 1: wasn't open and CD was open early end lead and
Speaker 1: he just didn't believe. He just didn't see it. So
Speaker 1: what was your thought when they went for it on
Speaker 1: fourth and goal? Oh? Yeah, because if they missed it,
Speaker 1: it's like, what are they doing they're a seed. They're
Speaker 1: too aggressive, right so one time they're too conservative, one
Speaker 1: times they're too congressive. And I enjoyed that one because
Speaker 1: he got confidence in a defense. Right now, anyway, are
Speaker 1: you going to give him Jalen hurts the ball at
Speaker 1: the two yard line? If you fail, I have confidence
Speaker 1: in the offense in my mind, I'm going you go
Speaker 1: for it. Yeah, yeah, it might as well because don't
Speaker 1: lo situation, the way the defense is playing. Yeah. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: And here's my thing about that though. We talked about
Speaker 1: the lack of time outs at the end of the
Speaker 1: first half, and then we talked about these busted plays
Speaker 1: after you know, the momentum had sworn. We were we
Speaker 1: had more momentum going into the into the red zone.
Speaker 1: And they just make me nervous sometimes when you come
Speaker 1: out with this, when you have a talented team like
Speaker 1: we have, and you make these bone head mistakes, and
Speaker 1: they could be they could turn out to be bone
Speaker 1: head mistakes if the game is in a different situation,
Speaker 1: if we're closer, if there's one score down instead of
Speaker 1: two scores down, and I don't want to put ourselves
Speaker 1: into that position now if we do that, and I
Speaker 1: see that we are mature enough. We're different from last
Speaker 1: year to well, Okay, you know, we made a mistake.
Speaker 1: We'll get ourselves out of it on a consistent basis.
Speaker 1: That's great for me if you can do that, but
Speaker 1: I'm not happy for it if you haven't proven that
Speaker 1: you can overcome these mistakes and you end up looking
Speaker 1: like the forty nine ers last weekend going to gas. Okay,
Speaker 1: you know, they had another loose possession. The Eagles drew
Speaker 1: within twenty seven fourteen and the third quarter they had
Speaker 1: just scored the Cowboys. Um Gott ended up starting at
Speaker 1: the twenty five. They got a first intent at the
Speaker 1: forty two through the lamb for fifteen. So their first
Speaker 1: intent at the Philadelphia forty three. Right, Dak keeps and
Speaker 1: slides down for minus one. Right, I think that was
Speaker 1: the call. I don't know why, but he's minus one.
Speaker 1: And now it's second eleven at the forty four and
Speaker 1: he throws a pass to Cedric Wilson, assuming Wilson was
Speaker 1: going to keep running, and Wilson stopped. Yeah, so it's incomplete. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was weird. They went empty on the next third
Speaker 1: and eleven. They got a blitz and he got sacked
Speaker 1: for minus seven, okay, and on fourth and eighteen at
Speaker 1: the thirty seven their own thirty seven, the punt almost
Speaker 1: got blocked. And had that happened, we're talking about twenty
Speaker 1: seven twenty one game. Yeah, absolutely, And see, these are
Speaker 1: the kind of lapses in concentration that that kind of
Speaker 1: makes me nervous. And you know, you can nitpick it,
Speaker 1: but when you're trying to be where we're trying to go,
Speaker 1: those those little nitpicking moments they can turn into catastrophes
Speaker 1: if you're not careful. And that was that was like
Speaker 1: two possessions in a row in the in the third
Speaker 1: quarter two three and ounce, they had two come out sleepwalking. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there was two three and ounce back to back. And
Speaker 1: when you know that you have the potential that you have,
Speaker 1: and that's the thing about the Cowboys, it's the potential
Speaker 1: that we have that we have to live up to.
Speaker 1: And so I think McCarthy feels that sometimes he knows
Speaker 1: he can do this, he knows he can do that,
Speaker 1: but what will actually work? And then they righted the ship,
Speaker 1: and that get to that possession you were talking about
Speaker 1: when they went for it on fourth and gold Billy
Speaker 1: and they scored the touchdown and that kind of settled
Speaker 1: things down. But at that point twenty seven fourteen, things
Speaker 1: are dicey. So when you see forty one twenty one
Speaker 1: looks like a wipeout, it never is. But it really isn't.
Speaker 1: It never is. There's always certain moments in the ball
Speaker 1: game to where if this would have happened, if that
Speaker 1: pump block would have happened, you know, if we compound
Speaker 1: our two busted plays with something else. I mean, let's
Speaker 1: look what happened and up seven nothing, we get the
Speaker 1: ball back, all of a sudden we're backed up. And
Speaker 1: why we want to call the play action pass in
Speaker 1: the end zone? I don't know empty? Was it empty?
Speaker 1: And still that's even worse knowing the penetration ability of
Speaker 1: our grade. I don't understand that. And well, what happened
Speaker 1: and Dak has to understand, you had hold onto that
Speaker 1: ball one CD Lamb fell down. You got air merrol
Speaker 1: the ball he was he was waiting and Lamb was
Speaker 1: coming open and he slipped and fell. Well, he had
Speaker 1: read he kind of ran a cute route. He was
Speaker 1: trying to lull the defender to sleep because the defender
Speaker 1: had the inside position. So he was trying to lull him.
Speaker 1: But that while you're lulling, Dak is back there on
Speaker 1: the present, he's looking at you, and then he falls.
Speaker 1: He falls. Yeah, okay, which takes us Let's go to
Speaker 1: the end of the first STLF because we haven't talked
Speaker 1: about the lack of calling a time out at the
Speaker 1: end of the first half. What did you think at
Speaker 1: the time when they did not use the time out. Well,
Speaker 1: everybody pointed out but but but McCarthy right away. They
Speaker 1: you know, the commentaries were like, okay, time out. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's just standard stuff, Bill, I mean, it's standard stuff.
Speaker 1: And you kind of wonder there are times when coach
Speaker 1: kind of looks a little witness on the sidelines. He's
Speaker 1: like and he was standing there waiting to to see
Speaker 1: if he if they were going to go for it
Speaker 1: on four fourth down. If I'm not mistaken, Well there's okay,
Speaker 1: there's a two minute warning. They faced second and thirty one.
Speaker 1: At the two minute warning, they completed a pass for
Speaker 1: seven yards. Now it's third and twenty four, and n't
Speaker 1: they throw the sanders? And then they threw the sanders.
Speaker 1: He went for nineteen yards. That's when they did not
Speaker 1: call the time out, right, okay. So on third and
Speaker 1: twenty four, and so the clock winds all the way
Speaker 1: down and they got it to within to the forty
Speaker 1: nine yard line, and they didn't call time out again
Speaker 1: when it's when it's second and thirty one, then you
Speaker 1: got the thing, Hey, we're gonna hold these guys. So
Speaker 1: that's really when you call your time. But that was
Speaker 1: a two minute warning. There was that was a two
Speaker 1: minute warning. After it, there was a minute fifty five
Speaker 1: left right, and so after that, after they passed to
Speaker 1: it was third and twenty four right, third and twenty
Speaker 1: four at the thirty two less snap came off at
Speaker 1: one ten. There you go. So they were at the
Speaker 1: They could have called time out at one fifty. They
Speaker 1: were because they were at and and Philadelphia was at
Speaker 1: their own thirty two yard line facing third and twenty four.
Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta think you're going to stop them,
Speaker 1: so you just you just you call that. You have
Speaker 1: to call that, okay, And then they punt. And then
Speaker 1: his thinking way he explained it was we were going
Speaker 1: to get the ball backed up anyway, and so you're
Speaker 1: you're leading. You already made a mistake back there in
Speaker 1: the first place. Uh, and he thought. I think in
Speaker 1: his mind he was thinking, Okay, we got control of
Speaker 1: this game, let's not do anything to screw it. And
Speaker 1: I believe that is what he said. Yeah, yeah, and
Speaker 1: he said down. I just decided I was very comfortable
Speaker 1: going into happen twenty to seven and they had not
Speaker 1: scored an offensive touchdown right yet. And see, let's say
Speaker 1: you played against somebody different though exactly we'll see. That's
Speaker 1: my point. Yeah, there's another point on that is and
Speaker 1: I don't remember if it's Greasy or Riddick whoever on
Speaker 1: the ESPN broadcast, Well, you gotta call timeout. You got
Speaker 1: to call timeout both but what but what you need
Speaker 1: to do, I believe as an analyst when they don't
Speaker 1: call timeout, is you need to explain. This is why
Speaker 1: the coach is not calling. This could be why he's
Speaker 1: thinking right now, Well, the guys on the same bandwagon,
Speaker 1: and they're smart enough to know that, Yeah, we don't
Speaker 1: be on the same bandwagon. We don't automatically assume. And
Speaker 1: this isn't for this coach or for Garrett, or for
Speaker 1: any coach in the league. They know what they're doing. Okay,
Speaker 1: they are making the conscious decision not to call the
Speaker 1: time out. They have a reason, and there's people in
Speaker 1: their headset telling them about a time out. Here, it's
Speaker 1: not like they're forgetting to call a timeout. That we
Speaker 1: got timeouts left, and that's what it makes it sound
Speaker 1: like a lot of times on the broadcast when an
Speaker 1: analyst or coach to be opinionated, you know. But I
Speaker 1: think that they also when they see that, Okay, he
Speaker 1: made a different decision, they need to explain why they're
Speaker 1: making that decision. And I think the reason that he
Speaker 1: made that decision, just as Mickey pointed out, is you're
Speaker 1: playing against the Philadelphia team that hasn't moved the football
Speaker 1: against you at all. They're getting the ball to start
Speaker 1: the second half, You're gonna you're gonna receive the ball
Speaker 1: on a punt at heck, you may try to block
Speaker 1: the punt at the fifty yard line. That's what you
Speaker 1: did the previous order, and you got it there your
Speaker 1: fans right, so anyway, but the way I look at
Speaker 1: it is the one thing that you do not want
Speaker 1: to happen before the end of that half is give
Speaker 1: the Eagles an easy touchdow a MISSQ something like that.
Speaker 1: It wasn't like I mean, on the previous possession, I
Speaker 1: believe it was a three and out for the Cowboys,
Speaker 1: And on the first possession of the second half there
Speaker 1: was a sack or maybe even two pressures there, right,
Speaker 1: all right, that's the only way Philadelphia is going to
Speaker 1: get back in this game is if you give them
Speaker 1: an easy touchdown at the end of the half to
Speaker 1: conservative approach. But I think in this case, I didn't
Speaker 1: have a problem with with what they decided to do
Speaker 1: because of the opponent. Now, and if they're playing Tampa Bay,
Speaker 1: if they're playing any team that can move the football themselves,
Speaker 1: we need to think regressive. And here's and here's what
Speaker 1: his knowledge was. At that point. Philadelphia had one hundred
Speaker 1: and twenty one total yards in two quarters, They were
Speaker 1: oh for four on third downs. They only had the
Speaker 1: ball for nine minutes and thirty nine seconds out of forty. Right,
Speaker 1: So he's thinking, at that point, we haven't given thirty yeah,
Speaker 1: and they haven't. They've shut him out defensively. Yeah, So
Speaker 1: he's thinking, why take a chance we got control of
Speaker 1: this game. And that's what went through his mind. And
Speaker 1: I guarantee you what happened with those guys. Is they
Speaker 1: could not wait to jump on of course, about the
Speaker 1: previous game when the clock ran down and they had
Speaker 1: to call like here we go again. Here we don't
Speaker 1: know how to run the clock. They don't know how
Speaker 1: to tell. Here's what we need to know right now
Speaker 1: is his reputation is out there right now in this
Speaker 1: regard that the cowboy players are gonna win in spite
Speaker 1: of him. That's what they've all they've all been thinking.
Speaker 1: That's the narrative right now. It's I always think, I
Speaker 1: always say this when Dennis Rodman played, If Dennis Robin
Speaker 1: did anything halfway stupid, he's gonna get a tech or
Speaker 1: he's gonna get tossed out of the game. You do
Speaker 1: that for say Curry, If Curry does that or Michael
Speaker 1: Jordan does that, oh he's gonna get the benefit of
Speaker 1: the doubt. Smile. Yeah, he's gonna get the benefit of
Speaker 1: the doubt because he is not Dennis Rodman. They are
Speaker 1: both not Dennis Rodman, Jordan or Curry in regards to
Speaker 1: the antics. So they're gonna get the benefit of doubt.
Speaker 1: McCarthy is not gonna get the benefit of the doubt
Speaker 1: anytime this year, Guys, because right now they're looking at
Speaker 1: how well if Cowboys offense is playing, They're looking at
Speaker 1: Dan Quinn and how he's coming in making the change.
Speaker 1: They are already saying that the Cowboys head coach is
Speaker 1: probably the dumbest one in the room, but he doesn't
Speaker 1: try how to manage the saying. And whether it's this case,
Speaker 1: it happens every week in this league where and he
Speaker 1: looks for somebody says something like that and that becomes
Speaker 1: the narrative for the for the rest of the week.
Speaker 1: Or there is a shot of a player missing a tackle,
Speaker 1: you know, and he may have played a great game otherwise,
Speaker 1: but he miss he whipped on that one, and they
Speaker 1: replay it five times. Then I've been there, and that's
Speaker 1: why I say it's a job of the analysts to
Speaker 1: explain why they did they made the different decision. And
Speaker 1: because I don't want I know, I'm gonna hear from
Speaker 1: my brother in law Thanksgiving that he doesn't you know,
Speaker 1: he don't even know how many time out he's got here.
Speaker 1: I have no idea how that's something every game. You know,
Speaker 1: you have me to give you a great example of
Speaker 1: a real example of what you're talking about. I'm covering
Speaker 1: a Clemson North Carolina basketball game and it's in Chapel
Speaker 1: Hill and Dean Smith is giving this rookie ace CC
Speaker 1: official hell yeah, right, and he calls a technical on him. Well,
Speaker 1: Dean Smith's like, this guy won't call another one on me, right,
Speaker 1: I got the reputation. He called the second one and
Speaker 1: tosses Dean Smith game and I'll guarantee you that was
Speaker 1: in his mind. It's like, Okay, this young guy, he
Speaker 1: got the nerves and he asked for this, and after
Speaker 1: the game, post game he apologized. He goes, I was wrong.
Speaker 1: I should have kept my mouth shut. All right, one
Speaker 1: more thing, we got to take a break. The other
Speaker 1: thing that I liked about not calling the time out
Speaker 1: and playing it a very conservative right there. I think
Speaker 1: it's the first time we've seen this coaching staff play
Speaker 1: a conservative in itty situation. They have been so overly
Speaker 1: aggressive going you know, whether it's fake punts or whatever.
Speaker 1: And I think it tells me something that they really
Speaker 1: like this team that they think that this they don't
Speaker 1: have to trick it up and they've got games under
Speaker 1: And that's what happened in the game with the fake punt, right,
Speaker 1: They were they were losing momentum against Washington, and he
Speaker 1: realized we don't do something. Well, I don't know if
Speaker 1: he realizes it. Maybe Fossil thought it. If we don't
Speaker 1: do something to jump start this thing right away, we're
Speaker 1: getting beat. And when they got beat anyway, all right,

Speaker 1: at the beginning or did you just add that it
Speaker 1: was a good transition? Yeah, day whatever. He was a
Speaker 1: little monotonous, desks bags, there was an echo, Yeah all right,
Speaker 1: we just have like four minutes left in this shot.
Speaker 1: Well that's because those guys went five minutes long. Make
Speaker 1: sure did we almost broke in but you started on time.
Speaker 1: I was trying to slip that by. They were still
Speaker 1: jack stuff ever since you see Richard Sherman is now
Speaker 1: a Tampa Bay buccaneer. Yes, that is a good call.
Speaker 1: I really think that that is a good call because
Speaker 1: their defense right now, past defense, they might have the
Speaker 1: worst past defense in the NFL. Right now, Well, they
Speaker 1: had to go up against the Cowboys, and god, they
Speaker 1: went the Falcons in the Rams the Falcons. They gave
Speaker 1: it up against the Falcons. They give twenty five points
Speaker 1: against it. Let's see where they're ranked, and let's see
Speaker 1: where we're right because I'm looking here right now, we
Speaker 1: might be we're the only team right above Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1: Yea past defense, they're thirty second and the Cowboys are
Speaker 1: thirty first. But where are we right takeaways? Right baby,
Speaker 1: we are number one'll be number one. So I'm looking
Speaker 1: at nineteen eighty one, then looking at the twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1: Good stuff right there. Baby, DB's looking like we gotta
Speaker 1: come up with a name for them. Tray vines, big dudes,
Speaker 1: I don't know I can dig it. Cowboys, you got
Speaker 1: to dig a zoo. You got digs, and you gotta
Speaker 1: go second day. You're not leading by that. You got
Speaker 1: go second day. The Cowboys have eight takeaways, New Orleans
Speaker 1: has seven. Cowboys and New Orleans are tied for net
Speaker 1: differential at plus five. Not bad, not bad considering where
Speaker 1: they began the first Well, you got the whole Cowboys.
Speaker 1: You got the Cowboys numbers there four overall defense and
Speaker 1: they ranks defense. Yeah, and by the way, eighty one
Speaker 1: we won, not them and Steves yet. Right. Uh, they're
Speaker 1: tied for twenty six in total defense, but they're sixth
Speaker 1: against the run, thirty first against and see the whole
Speaker 1: total defense there, that's yards and you know, just like
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts had three hundred and something yards passing it.
Speaker 1: And so that makes Cowboys twenty six in total defense.
Speaker 1: You know, when you're you're way ahead of a game.
Speaker 1: And so but it also makes you number one in
Speaker 1: takeaways because you're gonna be waiting on it. They're gonna
Speaker 1: be waiting on it, that's right. So but when it
Speaker 1: comes to points per game, well the Cowboys are thirteenth,
Speaker 1: and that's starting off with giving up thirty one. So
Speaker 1: now it's seventeen, seventeen and twenty one. I think I'm
Speaker 1: most best defense. It's fourteen, so it's seventeen. I'm just
Speaker 1: saying the best magic performance I've seen is is against
Speaker 1: the Chargers, give up all those yours passing and only
Speaker 1: give up what seventeen points takeaways and them making having
Speaker 1: two touchdowns taken off the board because of penalties and
Speaker 1: one was an illegal shift. Yeah, I saw it. It
Speaker 1: was stupid. It had nothing to do with the play.
Speaker 1: And that's on him. That's he's the dummy, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: why would you even move and the referees looking right
Speaker 1: at you, you know, And the Cowboys got one in
Speaker 1: this pass game. It was on It was on Cooper. Cooper,
Speaker 1: he was in motion and he kind of stopped and
Speaker 1: he turned, but when he turned, his feet were still going.
Speaker 1: That's what the guy did. He moved his feet for
Speaker 1: some reason, and they're gonna call that. They are going
Speaker 1: to call They weren't going anywhere. But when he moved,
Speaker 1: he moved moved feet. Can you look up penalties? Do
Speaker 1: you have defensive Um? I don't think they like the
Speaker 1: opposition penalties. I don't think they. So you think we
Speaker 1: might be leading the league? Yeah, and the opponent the
Speaker 1: Cowboys drew oppies play the Cowboys on opponents, the Cowboys
Speaker 1: opponents have drawn thirty six penalties to twenty for Dallas.
Speaker 1: I don't know where thirty six ranks in the league,
Speaker 1: but it's got to be way up. Well, that's because
Speaker 1: we were hunting hurts down the entire game and especially
Speaker 1: the second half. I mean not his fault, I mean
Speaker 1: his linemen were holding all the time. The Charges were horrible.
Speaker 1: Their offensive line reminds me of the Raiders back in
Speaker 1: the Al Davis days. The Chargers. Yes, the Chargers penalties
Speaker 1: in the huge that they had in our game. In
Speaker 1: our game, yeah, yeah, I don't see anything. And with
Speaker 1: the Eagles, I mean they they called so many flags
Speaker 1: on on the Eagles. He's ridiculous. And it's been a
Speaker 1: trend all season. I think they lead the league in penalties.
Speaker 1: The Eagles too. I think the Chargers have made They
Speaker 1: made some dumb plays against the Chiefs as well, but
Speaker 1: they overcame them as opposed to they couldn't do it
Speaker 1: against us. But the Charges made some dumb plays against
Speaker 1: the Chiefs as well, penalties that should have killed their drive.
Speaker 1: But justin Herbert, he was on at this time, he
Speaker 1: was on at there no interceptions in the end zone.
Speaker 1: And just to give you an idea, the Eagles have
Speaker 1: been called for thirty five penalties, which I believe is
Speaker 1: like tops in the league, and Cowboys opponents have been
Speaker 1: called for thirty six, So that gives you an idea
Speaker 1: of where they ranked there. So I gotta say that
Speaker 1: Jaalin hurrits is he's not doing that great, but they
Speaker 1: ain't doing that bad either, becausidering all that craft he
Speaker 1: just said, he got all the penalties against them, right,
Speaker 1: and he still had three other stuff y'all. Great, that
Speaker 1: testdown pass at the end, great, what you know? Hey,
Speaker 1: you know that? And that's the thing. He looks the
Speaker 1: part he and he throws a great ball. He and
Speaker 1: he you know, you watch a workout from him, and
Speaker 1: he looks terrific. You would you would pick him to
Speaker 1: start for Alabama over Ta, which is what Nick Saban
Speaker 1: did back when he was in at Alabama. But then
Speaker 1: he passed against them against Brown. Yeah, and part of
Speaker 1: it pass and Brown just that's I think it can
Speaker 1: be worked out of him where it's it's just he
Speaker 1: gets a little too greedy sometimes on things, you know.
Speaker 1: But it was an under thrown ball that not even
Speaker 1: close right, and he was never opened. He was never open.
Speaker 1: He could have easily just thrown it to the to
Speaker 1: the side of the end zone, down the side of
Speaker 1: the d zone and the Cowboys that one touchdown. I
Speaker 1: think it was the last, maybe the last Tech todown. No,
Speaker 1: the Cowboys last. They ended up with two holding plays.
Speaker 1: I think it was that possession two hold. It was
Speaker 1: a sixty five yard drive that they had two holding
Speaker 1: plays made it eighty five years And not only do
Speaker 1: get penalized the hold, but you get penalized the yards
Speaker 1: you also had gained and they still they still, they
Speaker 1: still drove for a touchdown. So yeah, those usually when
Speaker 1: that happens, here's what I do. And that's the kind
Speaker 1: of stuff you don't want. If you're in Philadelphia, it's
Speaker 1: a different game. You don't get as many penalties called
Speaker 1: on you. You might still and you you're gonna have
Speaker 1: more mistakes on your end, and so you just don't
Speaker 1: want to let that those those X factors get involved.
Speaker 1: When you've got a game, when you've got a good team,
Speaker 1: you got a good offense, they better be a good
Speaker 1: team when they play. Then that's what I'm saying. You
Speaker 1: gotta be a good team. Show me you're a good team,
Speaker 1: not that team. I want to see this team twenty
Speaker 1: sixteen Cowboys that started every game with a touchdown drive.
Speaker 1: And remember the game in Green Bay at the end
Speaker 1: of the half and they started their own five yard
Speaker 1: line and Dak leads him on a touchdown drive. I
Speaker 1: mean they overcame adversity. When you've got a good team
Speaker 1: that can run the football or throw it, then you
Speaker 1: can overcome that stuffy Green Bay playoff game. That was
Speaker 1: amazing game. So all right, and you and you know,
Speaker 1: speaking of Green Bay and playoff games, I can't remember
Speaker 1: if I told you guys this yesterday or not. Des
Speaker 1: Bryant came into the into the press conference room after
Speaker 1: the game. McCarthy was just walking up to the podium
Speaker 1: and he yells out, hey, Coo, it was still a catch,
Speaker 1: and he's right, damn, yeah right, it was a kid.
Speaker 1: I would be mad tooth Bustoray is like, I would
Speaker 1: be mad too, Karthey bust out laughing. Yeah, catch catch man.
Speaker 1: I almost hit my head on the steel the fan
Speaker 1: when he made that catch. Oh my goodness. I never
Speaker 1: forget that. All right. That does it for Mick shuts
Speaker 1: for a Wednesday. We will see you again tomorrow at
Speaker 1: one thirty. Go Cowboys. This has been a production of
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
