WEBVTT - Mick Shots: Win Is A Win

0:00:02.279 --> 0:00:04.800
<v Speaker 1>The following. Here's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

0:00:04.840 --> 0:00:12.840
<v Speaker 1>and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club Cowboys. This is Nick

0:00:13.080 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Shot screaming live on Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the

0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:22.320
<v Speaker 1>official Dallas Cowboys apt now Here are Bill Jones, Everson Walls,

0:00:22.600 --> 0:00:58.800
<v Speaker 1>and Nicky Spagnola. Welcome back, Dallas Howboys stand and once

0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:04.399
<v Speaker 1>again on this Monday as meat Loaf sang two out

0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:09.000
<v Speaker 1>of three eight bad because Bill Jones got called a

0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:13.720
<v Speaker 1>way assignment and was very apologetic, by the way, and

0:01:13.800 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>he wasn't here to state that the Dallas Cowboys won

0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:24.360
<v Speaker 1>the state championship of Texas on Sunday, beating the Houston

0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:30.360
<v Speaker 1>Texans twenty seven twenty three. Could this be considered a rivalry,

0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:36.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure. I think well, as we talked about it,

0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:40.000
<v Speaker 1>I think the Texans did, because they certainly played like it,

0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:45.240
<v Speaker 1>stretching the Cowboys down to the last five minutes of

0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:50.040
<v Speaker 1>the game before they could take control and win and

0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:55.080
<v Speaker 1>get to ten wins. And once again we are sitting

0:01:55.120 --> 0:01:58.280
<v Speaker 1>here saying a win is a win, doesn't matter how

0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:00.360
<v Speaker 1>you get it, as long as you get it. And

0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:03.280
<v Speaker 1>I know there's probably a lot of people out there

0:02:03.360 --> 0:02:09.360
<v Speaker 1>that weren't happy with the Cowboys style points, but they

0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:13.520
<v Speaker 1>were good enough to overcome quite a few hurdles to

0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:17.560
<v Speaker 1>be able to get that tenth win. First time since

0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:21.240
<v Speaker 1>ninety five ninety six they've had back to back seasons

0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:24.040
<v Speaker 1>of double digit wins. Oh wow, how about that. I

0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:26.600
<v Speaker 1>did not know that. Yeah, they didn't get any credit

0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:28.880
<v Speaker 1>for it. If you now, they're never gonna get any

0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:33.280
<v Speaker 1>credit if you listen to talk radio. Right. Um, you know,

0:02:33.480 --> 0:02:39.000
<v Speaker 1>I after watching that game, I was really torn because,

0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:42.600
<v Speaker 1>of course, you see the same bad habits coming into

0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:46.240
<v Speaker 1>play right at the same time of year, which is

0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:54.000
<v Speaker 1>extremely unfortunate and untimely. But I still gotta feel good

0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 1>about that about our resolve, right, I have to feel

0:02:57.760 --> 0:03:00.320
<v Speaker 1>good about our resolved. I'm not gonna throw away an

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:05.080
<v Speaker 1>entire game and look at it as a loss when

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:09.080
<v Speaker 1>if we would have lost, it would have been catastrophic. Right,

0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:14.160
<v Speaker 1>we saved ourselves from catastrophe. But man, the way we

0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:17.680
<v Speaker 1>did it, it's like, whoa this is? This is impressive.

0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't want to feel so impressed in

0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:23.919
<v Speaker 1>the game that we should have blown out, but that

0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:28.760
<v Speaker 1>last drive was impressive, and I guess I should say

0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:34.840
<v Speaker 1>this is Mick shots who have everython Wallah without Dallas

0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys dot Com in the s WBC podcast studio, thank

0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:44.240
<v Speaker 1>you for that, and yeah see, And here's sort of

0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:53.000
<v Speaker 1>what I wrote after it was like, don't sweat the

0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:56.960
<v Speaker 1>first fifty five minutes because the Cowboys didn't sweat the

0:03:57.040 --> 0:04:01.280
<v Speaker 1>last five, right, And what they did in the last

0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:05.800
<v Speaker 1>five minutes with a goal line stop from the four

0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:09.080
<v Speaker 1>yard line, and it wasn't like they drove down to

0:04:09.160 --> 0:04:12.880
<v Speaker 1>the four. They ended up with an interception and got

0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:16.359
<v Speaker 1>to the four yard line, and in four plays, two

0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:22.440
<v Speaker 1>of the four the Cowboys caused minus gains and then

0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:25.719
<v Speaker 1>stopped them at the two yard line on fourth and

0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:28.479
<v Speaker 1>goal when they could have put the game away and

0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:33.320
<v Speaker 1>gone up stopped twenty on the fourth down play. I

0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:39.599
<v Speaker 1>believe it was Gallimore and Anthony and two guys that

0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:44.039
<v Speaker 1>you really haven't too much from this year, but enough

0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:47.800
<v Speaker 1>on that play to give the ball at the two

0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:53.719
<v Speaker 1>yard line with three forty nine, three twenty nine to

0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:59.880
<v Speaker 1>go and they commenced on a three twenty to go

0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:04.279
<v Speaker 1>ninety eight yard drive. Now we spent and I know

0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:08.080
<v Speaker 1>it was a little bit different circumstance, but on Friday,

0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:13.360
<v Speaker 1>talking fifteen minutes about Baker Mayfield driving the Rams ninety

0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:17.000
<v Speaker 1>eight yards in the final minute of the game to

0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:23.200
<v Speaker 1>score the winning touchdown, and Dak Prescott gets little credit

0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:29.080
<v Speaker 1>for driving eight yards at all. For the wind. Where

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:31.400
<v Speaker 1>were you? Where have you been? That's what everyone was

0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:33.480
<v Speaker 1>done for me. Why did you have to wait this long?

0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:36.640
<v Speaker 1>And you know, the weird thing that I think got overlooked.

0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:41.520
<v Speaker 1>He accounted for ninety four of the ninety eight yards

0:05:41.520 --> 0:05:47.240
<v Speaker 1>correct ninety one passing or seventy nine passing in fifteen runs.

0:05:47.279 --> 0:05:49.360
<v Speaker 1>The touchdown run was the only thing that he had

0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:51.520
<v Speaker 1>nothing to do with, Yeah, other than the handle. Other

0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:54.960
<v Speaker 1>than he knew he was handing the ball to Ezekiel Nulliet.

0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:57.080
<v Speaker 1>He told me, and everybody else knew it too. I

0:05:57.080 --> 0:05:59.880
<v Speaker 1>don't understand what the Texas were doing. It was like

0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:03.520
<v Speaker 1>it's like it was like Dak Dak said in the huddle,

0:06:03.600 --> 0:06:08.520
<v Speaker 1>he goes, you know, offensive line, just do your job

0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.640
<v Speaker 1>because Zeke will run through all the rest. Yes he will,

0:06:11.800 --> 0:06:14.719
<v Speaker 1>and handed him for a touchdown, which, by the way,

0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:18.640
<v Speaker 1>it was a note the Cowboys PR department came up with.

0:06:18.760 --> 0:06:22.040
<v Speaker 1>It's the sixth straight game he's had a rushing touchdown

0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:25.720
<v Speaker 1>and only two other guys in Cowboy history have had

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:30.200
<v Speaker 1>at least six consecutive games with a rushing touchdown, and

0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:33.040
<v Speaker 1>their names happened to be Tony and Emmett. There you go,

0:06:33.279 --> 0:06:35.160
<v Speaker 1>and I think they're both in the Hall of Fame.

0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:40.080
<v Speaker 1>And you knew when they were going to hand him

0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:43.279
<v Speaker 1>that ball that he's getting it. He's not getting denied

0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:45.719
<v Speaker 1>like he did on the goal line earlier in the

0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:48.400
<v Speaker 1>what was it the third quarter on the fourth and

0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:50.880
<v Speaker 1>goal at the one, and he ended up losing a

0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:54.520
<v Speaker 1>yard because the offensive line just collapsed. What the heck? Man? Yeah,

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:56.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean when you look at that, the difference in

0:06:56.760 --> 0:07:01.320
<v Speaker 1>those two plays, I don't know, Houston just they just

0:07:02.120 --> 0:07:05.520
<v Speaker 1>they seemed to be playing pass right. It just seems

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:09.040
<v Speaker 1>like they had a lot of gaps just from the alignment,

0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:13.320
<v Speaker 1>from the alignment, the pre snap alignment. There were still

0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:16.360
<v Speaker 1>holes in there on the defensive line. It looked as

0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:18.960
<v Speaker 1>if they were waiting on a trick play well, and

0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:23.920
<v Speaker 1>they did get the pass on second down to Gallop

0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:26.720
<v Speaker 1>and it looked like it was a touchdown until you

0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:28.760
<v Speaker 1>kind of saw the replay and he didn't get his

0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:33.680
<v Speaker 1>second foot down. I thought it was a blind side hit.

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:36.280
<v Speaker 1>I thought the guy was gonna get penalized for it, right,

0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:38.960
<v Speaker 1>But I guess if you break up a touchdown pass,

0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:42.040
<v Speaker 1>you no, no, you gotta give him love on that. Yeah.

0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:45.280
<v Speaker 1>And I was really hoping that that was gonna be

0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:48.000
<v Speaker 1>the end of it, you know, meaning just catch the

0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:49.760
<v Speaker 1>ball and then you know, let's get out of here,

0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:52.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, and let the defense come and do their jobs.

0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:55.800
<v Speaker 1>But I heard someone complaining about that pass, like, look, man,

0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:59.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, just catch the ball. You know, I'm gonna

0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:01.520
<v Speaker 1>throw the ball. You catch the ball, will all be good.

0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, and I know Gallup's not complaining, I mean

0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:08.160
<v Speaker 1>in regards to you know, those pundits out there. Uh,

0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:12.000
<v Speaker 1>that's complaining about everything, Dack. But you know, he almost

0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:14.200
<v Speaker 1>had it the whole way. He just didn't get the

0:08:14.240 --> 0:08:16.680
<v Speaker 1>other foot down because when he fell he still had it,

0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:21.680
<v Speaker 1>still had it, and right, it was kind of right.

0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:27.960
<v Speaker 1>And and then it came out. I mean, they gave

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:32.240
<v Speaker 1>the other catch to the Texans on the one that

0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:36.720
<v Speaker 1>McCarthy challenged. When the ball you saw it squirt out

0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:39.000
<v Speaker 1>and then you know, and it was like no, it

0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:42.120
<v Speaker 1>was a catch, and like no, it wasn't even that.

0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:48.839
<v Speaker 1>Dean Blandino the Cowboys bane of a replay guy said

0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:53.600
<v Speaker 1>it was incomplete, right, And so at postgame interview, I asked,

0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:56.480
<v Speaker 1>I asked McCarthy. I said so because he brought up

0:08:56.559 --> 0:09:00.400
<v Speaker 1>the you know, the challenge. And then I said, so,

0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:03.720
<v Speaker 1>what did they tell you? He said, they decided in

0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:07.800
<v Speaker 1>New York. So it wasn't even the crew, right, they

0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 1>decided in New York. Well, they had another content the fumble.

0:09:12.440 --> 0:09:16.320
<v Speaker 1>They called a fumble on the pass attempt from Dak.

0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:19.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, yeah, I mean I believe you. The guy

0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:24.800
<v Speaker 1>that you just mentioned thought that it was an incomplete pass, right,

0:09:24.920 --> 0:09:27.800
<v Speaker 1>and he thought that was pretty obvious. But they chose

0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:30.679
<v Speaker 1>to go with a fumble, and then here we go.

0:09:30.880 --> 0:09:34.319
<v Speaker 1>We love to compound our mistakes, don't we. We Just no, man,

0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:36.480
<v Speaker 1>you didn't mess up enough. I'm gonna go ahead and

0:09:36.480 --> 0:09:38.480
<v Speaker 1>mess up something over here. You know. It was just

0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:40.800
<v Speaker 1>so we can balance that out, and here you go.

0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:44.760
<v Speaker 1>I think we threw an interception Dak. There was an

0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:47.480
<v Speaker 1>interception after that, yes, which is like, I don't know

0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:49.200
<v Speaker 1>what the heck was going on with that. Well I

0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.640
<v Speaker 1>got was that the second Yes, that we got his

0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:55.160
<v Speaker 1>arm hit it. That's why wasn't in there for that

0:09:55.240 --> 0:10:00.280
<v Speaker 1>last sea Hey, man, the guy's doing this as he

0:10:00.320 --> 0:10:01.960
<v Speaker 1>just got in the game, right Well, you know that's

0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.520
<v Speaker 1>the other thing, you know, when he had to go in,

0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:08.720
<v Speaker 1>I went back and look, So this is his first

0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:12.760
<v Speaker 1>year to play right He was on basically injured reserve

0:10:13.800 --> 0:10:20.160
<v Speaker 1>his rookie year. He had eleven offensive snaps this season

0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:24.000
<v Speaker 1>so far, and none of them were in significant playing time.

0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:28.920
<v Speaker 1>So that was his first extended, you know, stretched to

0:10:29.040 --> 0:10:31.680
<v Speaker 1>play in the NFL. Did he struggle, Yeah, he did.

0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:36.840
<v Speaker 1>And give him credit for saying, Okay, Jason Peters, it's

0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:39.839
<v Speaker 1>your forty year old butt in there, because I can't

0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:42.360
<v Speaker 1>handle it right now. And even and even if you

0:10:42.480 --> 0:10:46.079
<v Speaker 1>haven't played right tackle from since two thousand and five.

0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:49.120
<v Speaker 1>By the way, he came in and geez did a

0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:52.640
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and two thousand and five. That's what he said.

0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Think about that. That's how long he's history right now.

0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:59.559
<v Speaker 1>This is is eighteenth year. Someone said, man, this is

0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:02.480
<v Speaker 1>the first this has happened since two thousand and five. Like, man,

0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:04.440
<v Speaker 1>that was a long time ago. Yeah, and he's still

0:11:04.520 --> 0:11:07.920
<v Speaker 1>he's part of it. He's still playing um so and

0:11:08.080 --> 0:11:10.520
<v Speaker 1>came in and did a decent job. And by the way,

0:11:10.880 --> 0:11:14.319
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys haven't made this official, but I was told

0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:17.800
<v Speaker 1>after the game that Terrence Steele tore his season and

0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:21.320
<v Speaker 1>MC yes, so he's done for the season. So that's

0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:26.520
<v Speaker 1>a discussion for tomorrow probably, but uh, yeah, they're gonna

0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:29.200
<v Speaker 1>have to decide what they're gonna do. Had to write tackle,

0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:33.040
<v Speaker 1>but they had to overcome that, uh, the fact that

0:11:33.360 --> 0:11:36.560
<v Speaker 1>Kelvin Joseph was starting, So two of their top three

0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:40.640
<v Speaker 1>corners were out and for three plays all three of

0:11:40.679 --> 0:11:45.080
<v Speaker 1>them were out because Diggs had to leave it momentarily

0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:48.480
<v Speaker 1>a thumb or something. Yeah, but yeah, you don't need

0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:51.720
<v Speaker 1>to have a thumb to cover. Now you might not,

0:11:52.600 --> 0:11:54.600
<v Speaker 1>And that's what I was thinking, where's he going, Yeah,

0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:56.480
<v Speaker 1>you don't need a hand to cover. Let's let's just

0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:59.319
<v Speaker 1>get you know, back in the day, we would, you know,

0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:01.880
<v Speaker 1>we take cells up. But now things are just much

0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:04.160
<v Speaker 1>more serious. You're talking about a lot more money is

0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:08.040
<v Speaker 1>involved with everything. So I can't just go over there

0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:10.360
<v Speaker 1>and do my thumb on my finger like I did.

0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:12.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, second year in the league. You just you

0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:16.040
<v Speaker 1>just can't do that, right, right, No, they don't. They

0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:17.640
<v Speaker 1>will not let you do that because of course we'd

0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:19.720
<v Speaker 1>make it worse that time when Gogan did that for

0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:23.360
<v Speaker 1>Aikman in the puddle, just pull it. It's like, oh

0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:27.520
<v Speaker 1>my god. They also, by the way along the way,

0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:31.280
<v Speaker 1>lost Jonathan Hankins and the reason he was active and

0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:35.160
<v Speaker 1>Chauncey Gholston wasn't was for the run game and they

0:12:35.240 --> 0:12:40.440
<v Speaker 1>lost him and Jack Ferguson within concussion protocol. What's what's

0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:42.760
<v Speaker 1>going on. I think his was a neck, I believe,

0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:46.480
<v Speaker 1>So we'll see where that one goes. So they lose

0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:50.560
<v Speaker 1>one of their big run stoppers. Um, the Texas came

0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:52.800
<v Speaker 1>in here and did some damage. Man, Yeah they did, yeah,

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:56.080
<v Speaker 1>and almost won the game. And think about it. You

0:12:56.160 --> 0:12:59.120
<v Speaker 1>won a game when you had three turnovers, you were

0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:04.719
<v Speaker 1>minus two in the turnover differential. I don't and I

0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:09.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of understand, you know. They Turpin loses his first fumble,

0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:13.040
<v Speaker 1>but again there was a here's what happened there, and

0:13:13.080 --> 0:13:16.760
<v Speaker 1>this is what happens when you have injuries. So because

0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Brown's not in there, Kelvin Joseph is starting at

0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:24.400
<v Speaker 1>at cornerback, so he's not on special teams, and they

0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:27.280
<v Speaker 1>had somebody else as the hold up guy on the

0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:30.960
<v Speaker 1>gunner on that punt and he missed his block. And

0:13:31.000 --> 0:13:34.440
<v Speaker 1>you saw the last week right about how all of

0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:37.720
<v Speaker 1>that can snowball, right, Yeah, And the guy he missed

0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:41.040
<v Speaker 1>was standing right, I mean he was smelling Turpin's neck.

0:13:41.400 --> 0:13:44.880
<v Speaker 1>He was behind him. He was so open, and so

0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:48.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure he got distracted. So, uh you have you

0:13:48.640 --> 0:13:54.720
<v Speaker 1>have the fumble leads to easy touchdown. Um Joseph on

0:13:54.800 --> 0:13:57.320
<v Speaker 1>the first deep ball gives up a thirty six yard

0:13:57.360 --> 0:14:01.439
<v Speaker 1>completion that led to a field goal. Uh Dak tried

0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:06.720
<v Speaker 1>to fit one into a tight situation of twenty nine

0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:11.480
<v Speaker 1>on the defense tipped it and then a Stewart MJ.

0:14:11.720 --> 0:14:16.000
<v Speaker 1>Stewart and then yeah, and then tipped off of Noah

0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:20.800
<v Speaker 1>Brown's hands, and that ended up being the first interception

0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:24.440
<v Speaker 1>that led to an easy touchdown. And the guy it's

0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:26.600
<v Speaker 1>almost like he was going this way and it's kind

0:14:26.640 --> 0:14:28.800
<v Speaker 1>of just threw his hands up right and was able

0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:32.080
<v Speaker 1>to barely touch it right and it was a little

0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:35.720
<v Speaker 1>bit behind. Brown got his hands on it, but it

0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:38.360
<v Speaker 1>ended up being un When you have a bout through

0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:41.640
<v Speaker 1>on that hard that closely and then someone tips it

0:14:41.680 --> 0:14:44.520
<v Speaker 1>and changes the trajectory, it makes a big difference when

0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:46.720
<v Speaker 1>it's that fast, and so they get the ball to

0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:50.400
<v Speaker 1>twenty seven end up scoring a touchdown and then maybe

0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:53.320
<v Speaker 1>the and this one was on the Cowboys, but after

0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:58.080
<v Speaker 1>they kicked the field goal. Uh, they allowed Houston in

0:14:58.120 --> 0:15:01.520
<v Speaker 1>the final forty seconds of the half to drive for

0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.720
<v Speaker 1>the field goal to take a twenty seventeen lead at halftime.

0:15:06.040 --> 0:15:10.240
<v Speaker 1>So all those things took place, and yet they somehow

0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:13.960
<v Speaker 1>stop Houston for a field goal in the second half

0:15:14.480 --> 0:15:18.000
<v Speaker 1>and end up winning the game. There were a couple

0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:22.520
<v Speaker 1>of drops, yes, big drops as well, but that don't count.

0:15:22.560 --> 0:15:26.320
<v Speaker 1>That's Dak's fault. I'm sorry, he throws the ball too hard. Well,

0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:31.600
<v Speaker 1>that's not what that's not what, well, I tight end said.

0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:34.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, man, he's he's so reliable and of course

0:15:34.640 --> 0:15:37.120
<v Speaker 1>were talking to him ten times. Did a good job.

0:15:38.080 --> 0:15:41.360
<v Speaker 1>But you know those veterans, they take it hard when

0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:44.600
<v Speaker 1>they let their quarterbacks down. Yeah, and of course Dak

0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:47.600
<v Speaker 1>feels bad anytime he throws in an interception. And you

0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:50.360
<v Speaker 1>know they sit on the sidelines and you wonder what

0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:52.880
<v Speaker 1>that's what's their mindset? You know, do they think that

0:15:53.640 --> 0:15:57.920
<v Speaker 1>they're defeated or do they think do they get more resolved? Right?

0:15:58.080 --> 0:16:01.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, and I like this game. The answer was

0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:04.280
<v Speaker 1>more resolved. You know, you had players that just refused

0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:08.240
<v Speaker 1>to just let this fiasco continue. And once again I

0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:11.200
<v Speaker 1>keep comparing to last year. Even with this game and

0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:15.200
<v Speaker 1>this inconsistency with the youth of this team, I still

0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:18.680
<v Speaker 1>see a team that last year, this would have been

0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:21.680
<v Speaker 1>totally different. We would have folded, We would not have

0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:24.920
<v Speaker 1>done a good job. A matter of fact, we probably

0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:27.600
<v Speaker 1>could see ourselves losing by a couple of scores. Yeah,

0:16:27.640 --> 0:16:30.680
<v Speaker 1>just last year. But this team making the play when

0:16:30.680 --> 0:16:33.520
<v Speaker 1>you have to didn't. I see d Law makeup more

0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:36.640
<v Speaker 1>than one players, guys having a heck of a sea

0:16:36.760 --> 0:16:39.280
<v Speaker 1>tackle for a loss on that on the I believe

0:16:39.320 --> 0:16:41.920
<v Speaker 1>it was on the goal line standing. He is having

0:16:42.080 --> 0:16:46.320
<v Speaker 1>a hell of a year and he's being overset, overshadowed

0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:48.680
<v Speaker 1>by a hell of a player in Michael Potter, right,

0:16:48.760 --> 0:16:51.320
<v Speaker 1>and he had he had the tackle. It was third

0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:54.720
<v Speaker 1>and goal at the one, and he dropped birkehead for minors.

0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:57.520
<v Speaker 1>That was huge, Yeah, that was huge. I mean we

0:16:57.560 --> 0:16:59.800
<v Speaker 1>could have easily just laid down like we did on

0:16:59.800 --> 0:17:02.640
<v Speaker 1>the other the two scores, right, absolutely, and we refused

0:17:02.640 --> 0:17:06.400
<v Speaker 1>to do that. And then I believe that that kind

0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:10.080
<v Speaker 1>of spurred back on Uh to do things that he

0:17:10.119 --> 0:17:11.920
<v Speaker 1>had to do, which was unusued with such as running

0:17:11.960 --> 0:17:16.920
<v Speaker 1>the ball, being more creative outside the pocket. That's where

0:17:17.040 --> 0:17:21.320
<v Speaker 1>that's where the talent of a good quarterback comes through,

0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:24.760
<v Speaker 1>is how you improvise, and that that improvisation led to

0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:30.320
<v Speaker 1>a beautiful drive despite you know, whatever happened, and I

0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:32.120
<v Speaker 1>knew what they I mean, you could see what they

0:17:32.119 --> 0:17:34.879
<v Speaker 1>were doing in the passing game. They were basically playing

0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:39.440
<v Speaker 1>everybody at quarters and then dropping the linebacker and so

0:17:39.480 --> 0:17:42.600
<v Speaker 1>now you had to get it over linebacker. But that's

0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:45.720
<v Speaker 1>always and it's tough. And you know why it's tough

0:17:46.200 --> 0:17:49.520
<v Speaker 1>because once again we are not throwing deep enough to

0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:53.199
<v Speaker 1>threaten anyone. That's going to be a problem SPACs. We

0:17:53.320 --> 0:17:55.520
<v Speaker 1>have not done it. I haven't seen Turpin in the game.

0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:57.919
<v Speaker 1>I don't care who you are. We went we actually

0:17:57.920 --> 0:18:01.720
<v Speaker 1>went for Brown last week, which is great, But we

0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:04.960
<v Speaker 1>just need to be more consistent and take strategic shot.

0:18:05.040 --> 0:18:07.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't mean just throwing the ball deep and then

0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:12.920
<v Speaker 1>getting it intercepted. I mean strategic deep passes that defenses

0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:15.399
<v Speaker 1>have to be prepared for in the future. And if

0:18:15.440 --> 0:18:18.480
<v Speaker 1>we don't show that to them, thank god, we're running

0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:20.760
<v Speaker 1>the ball well. Thank God we're running the ball well

0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:24.240
<v Speaker 1>because if we continue to just show the same status

0:18:24.359 --> 0:18:28.360
<v Speaker 1>quo in regards to the depth of our routes, all

0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:30.000
<v Speaker 1>teams are going to play us the way they'll play

0:18:30.080 --> 0:18:32.399
<v Speaker 1>the way the Texans played us yesterday. And that's a

0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:35.920
<v Speaker 1>problem we always We've overcome it. They're not the only

0:18:35.960 --> 0:18:38.560
<v Speaker 1>wants to do it this year, right, but better teams

0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:40.520
<v Speaker 1>are going to do it, and it's going to be

0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:42.800
<v Speaker 1>a problem. And I don't know if they had Washington

0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:46.320
<v Speaker 1>on a pitch count, but he only got like eleven snaps.

0:18:46.560 --> 0:18:49.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he played the I didn't remember seeing

0:18:49.240 --> 0:18:51.960
<v Speaker 1>him in there the second half, and he had the

0:18:52.000 --> 0:18:54.359
<v Speaker 1>one slant that the guy broke up with a hit

0:18:54.760 --> 0:18:57.160
<v Speaker 1>that was a pretty good hit on him. But yeah,

0:18:57.280 --> 0:18:59.439
<v Speaker 1>he's the guy you'd like to see. But you were

0:18:59.480 --> 0:19:03.800
<v Speaker 1>talking about, you know, the confidence and everything. Um So

0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:06.840
<v Speaker 1>after the game, was sitting there talking with Scholtz and

0:19:07.160 --> 0:19:10.359
<v Speaker 1>it's like, so, you know what went on in the huddle.

0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:13.760
<v Speaker 1>You're sitting in the end zone. You got ninety eight

0:19:13.800 --> 0:19:19.359
<v Speaker 1>yards to go right and one team And he said,

0:19:20.000 --> 0:19:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Zack came into the huddle, Zach came into the huddle.

0:19:24.560 --> 0:19:26.960
<v Speaker 1>I wanted I wanted to say, I didn't say Dak

0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:29.600
<v Speaker 1>It was Zack Martin said. He came into the huddle

0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:32.480
<v Speaker 1>with a big smile on his face. It was like, Okay,

0:19:32.560 --> 0:19:35.080
<v Speaker 1>here we go. Yeah, let's do this. Let's do it.

0:19:35.280 --> 0:19:38.800
<v Speaker 1>And uh, by golly, they they certainly got it done.

0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:42.080
<v Speaker 1>And Schultz ended up making the big catch on that

0:19:42.160 --> 0:19:46.840

0:22:23.280 --> 0:22:27.399
<v Speaker 1>Bill Jones talking about the Cowboys winning the Texas State

0:22:27.520 --> 0:22:35.640
<v Speaker 1>championship over those Houston se speaking of something without this

0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:40.800
<v Speaker 1>is a different game for us to win no sacks.

0:22:41.200 --> 0:22:43.840
<v Speaker 1>I know, I was getting ready to no sex. That

0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:48.000
<v Speaker 1>team had been sacked thirty three times. The team that

0:22:48.080 --> 0:22:50.560
<v Speaker 1>had forty eight to lead the league came up with

0:22:50.600 --> 0:22:53.880
<v Speaker 1>the first zero of the season. Is that crazy? Yeah,

0:22:53.960 --> 0:22:56.400
<v Speaker 1>the first zero of the season they've had sack man.

0:22:56.480 --> 0:23:00.520
<v Speaker 1>This is a weird year periods, I mean. But at

0:23:00.560 --> 0:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>the same time, you have to look at how the

0:23:03.359 --> 0:23:07.159
<v Speaker 1>defense still played well and they still were critical and

0:23:08.000 --> 0:23:11.000
<v Speaker 1>helping us win this game. The tackles for losses, you

0:23:11.000 --> 0:23:14.680
<v Speaker 1>could consider those sacks because they were huge. You could

0:23:14.720 --> 0:23:18.679
<v Speaker 1>consider those as sacks. They had the same momentum. They

0:23:18.720 --> 0:23:22.160
<v Speaker 1>gave us, the same momentum that a sack would give you. Uh, well,

0:23:22.160 --> 0:23:25.480
<v Speaker 1>we got one interception, you know it was a that

0:23:25.520 --> 0:23:29.960
<v Speaker 1>was a hell man. Yeah, they man, they fought over

0:23:30.119 --> 0:23:32.160
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe they's game that were No. I think

0:23:32.160 --> 0:23:34.960
<v Speaker 1>he felt sorry for like, okay, man, this is yeah.

0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:37.280
<v Speaker 1>He was still tweeting out something. They told me that

0:23:37.480 --> 0:23:40.560
<v Speaker 1>it was mine. I think he let them have it. Man,

0:23:40.600 --> 0:23:44.320
<v Speaker 1>if you come run. Not only that, not not many turnovers,

0:23:44.359 --> 0:23:49.360
<v Speaker 1>but you know, you saw a team even with the interceptions,

0:23:49.400 --> 0:23:51.840
<v Speaker 1>that were still able to win with the drive. We

0:23:51.960 --> 0:23:55.640
<v Speaker 1>haven't had a game winning drive like that since what

0:23:55.760 --> 0:23:58.000
<v Speaker 1>when was the last time we've done that, you know,

0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:01.640
<v Speaker 1>to where it really counts. Well, that's who's eighteenth? Yeah,

0:24:01.760 --> 0:24:04.000
<v Speaker 1>which care He hadn't had that many of this in

0:24:04.000 --> 0:24:06.359
<v Speaker 1>his last couple of years. Well, if you're ahead, you

0:24:06.359 --> 0:24:09.840
<v Speaker 1>don't need him, that's right when you're winning, right, And

0:24:10.000 --> 0:24:14.240
<v Speaker 1>only Tony Romo has more. Romo leads with twenty four

0:24:14.359 --> 0:24:17.760
<v Speaker 1>career kind of game winning drives like that. So look,

0:24:18.000 --> 0:24:20.280
<v Speaker 1>and both of them probably put themselves in that situation,

0:24:20.280 --> 0:24:22.920
<v Speaker 1>and I give yeah, and I get it. They gave

0:24:23.000 --> 0:24:26.520
<v Speaker 1>up twenty three points the defense. That was the second Finally,

0:24:26.640 --> 0:24:30.639
<v Speaker 1>over twenty points that the second most Houston has scored

0:24:30.720 --> 0:24:34.240
<v Speaker 1>this season. The other time they scored twenty four, so

0:24:34.280 --> 0:24:38.959
<v Speaker 1>they were only averaging like fifteen point change over the season.

0:24:39.480 --> 0:24:46.280
<v Speaker 1>But again, it took the Texans to get one hundred

0:24:46.280 --> 0:24:50.760
<v Speaker 1>and fourteen yards rushing thirty seven carries, so they ended

0:24:50.800 --> 0:24:54.840
<v Speaker 1>up averaging three point one. The carries that hurt them

0:24:55.200 --> 0:24:59.199
<v Speaker 1>was them coming in with Jeff Driscoll, of all people

0:24:59.359 --> 0:25:02.280
<v Speaker 1>to run the football. Yes, and he had seven carries

0:25:02.359 --> 0:25:06.040
<v Speaker 1>for thirty six yards because otherwise everybody was worried about

0:25:06.119 --> 0:25:09.919
<v Speaker 1>Piers And okay, he got him on a couple runs

0:25:10.200 --> 0:25:11.919
<v Speaker 1>he had a twenty four yard or but he had

0:25:11.960 --> 0:25:15.880
<v Speaker 1>twenty two carries for seventy eight yards, so it's three

0:25:15.920 --> 0:25:19.280
<v Speaker 1>and a half a carry. When it came to total yards,

0:25:19.359 --> 0:25:22.439
<v Speaker 1>they held Houston to three hundred and twenty seven yards,

0:25:22.760 --> 0:25:26.560
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, that's pretty good. The problem with that is

0:25:26.600 --> 0:25:29.560
<v Speaker 1>the offense is giving them too many opportunities to have

0:25:29.880 --> 0:25:32.600
<v Speaker 1>the ball exactly. That's the problem. So if you can

0:25:32.640 --> 0:25:35.439
<v Speaker 1>stop with the turnovers, then you won't have nearly as

0:25:35.480 --> 0:25:38.640
<v Speaker 1>many rushing attempts, therefore less a few of rushing yards

0:25:38.880 --> 0:25:42.120
<v Speaker 1>and they won't be able to move the chain as much. So, yeah,

0:25:42.160 --> 0:25:43.760
<v Speaker 1>you have to kind of look at the offense in

0:25:43.800 --> 0:25:47.240
<v Speaker 1>regards to putting the defense in those precarious situations. Two

0:25:47.280 --> 0:25:52.360
<v Speaker 1>of them he fumbled the part phone. Yeah, but when

0:25:52.400 --> 0:25:55.359
<v Speaker 1>you start talking about the other the other defensive plays,

0:25:56.280 --> 0:26:01.400
<v Speaker 1>those were plays that they inherited. Those they didn't cause

0:26:01.480 --> 0:26:04.200
<v Speaker 1>these problems. They inherited these problems from the offense. So

0:26:05.000 --> 0:26:08.920
<v Speaker 1>when a team plays offense like Houston was, and we

0:26:09.200 --> 0:26:12.960
<v Speaker 1>saw them almost the same blueprint that the Colts played

0:26:13.480 --> 0:26:17.280
<v Speaker 1>trying to protect their quarterback, how frustrating is that defense?

0:26:17.359 --> 0:26:22.200
<v Speaker 1>The guys always rolling out the run options and and

0:26:22.320 --> 0:26:25.640
<v Speaker 1>they're just kind of picking away at you. That's got

0:26:26.560 --> 0:26:30.640
<v Speaker 1>rembness of Randall Cunningham, you know, being able to get

0:26:30.680 --> 0:26:33.879
<v Speaker 1>us outside the pocket and to create habit and I

0:26:33.960 --> 0:26:36.719
<v Speaker 1>think not as dynamic as that, but it's as irritating

0:26:37.280 --> 0:26:39.880
<v Speaker 1>because he's you know, they were barely picking things up.

0:26:39.920 --> 0:26:43.479
<v Speaker 1>They were they were just being irritating and moving the chains,

0:26:44.000 --> 0:26:46.520
<v Speaker 1>and they didn't allow us to get into the mode

0:26:46.520 --> 0:26:49.360
<v Speaker 1>that we want to get into, which was keeping them

0:26:49.640 --> 0:26:52.240
<v Speaker 1>third and real long, you know, second and real long.

0:26:52.280 --> 0:26:55.960
<v Speaker 1>We never put them into that position consistently enough to

0:26:56.000 --> 0:26:58.200
<v Speaker 1>where they had to panic to get a third down.

0:26:58.600 --> 0:27:01.240
<v Speaker 1>So we played right into their hands and regards to

0:27:01.720 --> 0:27:06.600
<v Speaker 1>giving them the best making their game plan successful. So, yeah,

0:27:06.640 --> 0:27:08.640
<v Speaker 1>this is the things that scares us all the time.

0:27:09.080 --> 0:27:12.440
<v Speaker 1>And you know, we were teasing last week. Bill comes

0:27:12.480 --> 0:27:15.800
<v Speaker 1>in talking about how bad they are and how this

0:27:15.880 --> 0:27:18.240
<v Speaker 1>is gonna be an easy win, and then we all

0:27:18.320 --> 0:27:21.640
<v Speaker 1>joked about that. So the thing that you have here

0:27:21.840 --> 0:27:24.760
<v Speaker 1>is youth. I'm just say you still have the youth

0:27:24.840 --> 0:27:26.720
<v Speaker 1>that you have to deal with, and you have an

0:27:26.720 --> 0:27:30.959
<v Speaker 1>intricate offense that if it's not if all details are

0:27:31.000 --> 0:27:33.600
<v Speaker 1>not adhered to, then you're gonna have a problem. That's

0:27:33.600 --> 0:27:36.439
<v Speaker 1>why I always talk about this past. There are some

0:27:36.520 --> 0:27:39.119
<v Speaker 1>games where you're just gonna have to say, screw the

0:27:39.240 --> 0:27:42.080
<v Speaker 1>game plan. You got the man up with these guys.

0:27:42.200 --> 0:27:45.280
<v Speaker 1>And I think they did that only on the last drive,

0:27:45.400 --> 0:27:47.280
<v Speaker 1>the last drive, because you know what, they ended up

0:27:47.320 --> 0:27:52.080
<v Speaker 1>with four hundred yards offensive sporrel four. They converted fifty

0:27:52.160 --> 0:27:56.359
<v Speaker 1>three percent of their third downs, eight for fifteen. But

0:27:56.560 --> 0:27:59.040
<v Speaker 1>when you drive like they did the one time and

0:27:59.119 --> 0:28:01.400
<v Speaker 1>you leave the ball the one yard lass, right, that's

0:28:01.520 --> 0:28:04.280
<v Speaker 1>that's a turnover. Right, that's one turnover. Yeah, yeah, that's

0:28:05.480 --> 0:28:08.200
<v Speaker 1>that's a turnover. Then you got two interceptions. That's three turnovers,

0:28:08.400 --> 0:28:12.000
<v Speaker 1>right and right the fumble, so almost four and you're

0:28:12.040 --> 0:28:14.560
<v Speaker 1>giving them short yardage because you held them to three

0:28:14.680 --> 0:28:18.080
<v Speaker 1>hundred twenty seven total yards. That's right, you say, Okay,

0:28:18.160 --> 0:28:22.040
<v Speaker 1>I live with that, right, Um, you know they average

0:28:22.080 --> 0:28:26.199
<v Speaker 1>five yards of play. You'll live with that. People gotta remember,

0:28:26.640 --> 0:28:29.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't care how solid you are. These are professional

0:28:29.760 --> 0:28:33.840
<v Speaker 1>grown men, and they're not gonna lay down for you. Okay,

0:28:33.840 --> 0:28:36.320
<v Speaker 1>They're not gonna lay down for their fans. They have

0:28:36.359 --> 0:28:39.160
<v Speaker 1>a sense of pride and especially if you keep opening

0:28:39.240 --> 0:28:41.800
<v Speaker 1>the door for them, right, if you don't close the door,

0:28:41.840 --> 0:28:44.360
<v Speaker 1>they're like, okay, man, I've been giving you a shot. Here.

0:28:44.720 --> 0:28:47.160
<v Speaker 1>You tried to close this doing three times. It's not closing.

0:28:47.320 --> 0:28:49.280
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna step through and do what we're supposed to do.

0:28:49.600 --> 0:28:53.440
<v Speaker 1>These are professional people playing ball head. They just happen

0:28:53.520 --> 0:28:56.280
<v Speaker 1>to be going through a bad stretch for that city

0:28:56.320 --> 0:28:58.600
<v Speaker 1>of Houston. But when don't just come in here and thinking,

0:28:59.000 --> 0:29:01.120
<v Speaker 1>we can't just keep thinking like this is a college

0:29:01.120 --> 0:29:03.480
<v Speaker 1>team or this is a high school team that can't

0:29:03.520 --> 0:29:05.920
<v Speaker 1>wait to you know, go out on Friday night after

0:29:05.920 --> 0:29:08.000
<v Speaker 1>the game is over. Now, these are grown men that

0:29:08.120 --> 0:29:11.040
<v Speaker 1>have to feed their families and they have to they

0:29:11.040 --> 0:29:14.160
<v Speaker 1>have a reputation to uphold. So don't think that you're

0:29:14.160 --> 0:29:15.920
<v Speaker 1>going to just keep laying the ball on the ground

0:29:16.120 --> 0:29:18.320
<v Speaker 1>and they're not going to pick it up. And as

0:29:18.360 --> 0:29:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I like to say, the more games you lose in

0:29:21.160 --> 0:29:23.160
<v Speaker 1>a row, the closer you're are to winning. And they

0:29:23.200 --> 0:29:26.320
<v Speaker 1>had lost seventh straight, you would think, okay, one's going

0:29:26.400 --> 0:29:28.600
<v Speaker 1>to land in their lap. And we didn't want you.

0:29:28.760 --> 0:29:31.120
<v Speaker 1>We are gave Green Bay that opening, right, yeah, so

0:29:31.160 --> 0:29:32.720
<v Speaker 1>we didn't want to do that to this time. And

0:29:32.800 --> 0:29:36.120
<v Speaker 1>actually they gave Tampa Bay that opening and the first

0:29:36.160 --> 0:29:39.040
<v Speaker 1>game of the season, although they hadn't lost yet. And again,

0:29:39.680 --> 0:29:44.360
<v Speaker 1>in this league, it's not easy to win four consecutive games,

0:29:44.720 --> 0:29:48.719
<v Speaker 1>and this was the fourth consecutive game, and so sometimes

0:29:48.760 --> 0:29:51.600
<v Speaker 1>the percentages do catch up with you. But they were

0:29:51.680 --> 0:29:58.960
<v Speaker 1>good enough to overcome all those percentage is to win, right,

0:29:59.160 --> 0:30:01.400
<v Speaker 1>that's right. And and I figured out that was the

0:30:01.440 --> 0:30:08.240
<v Speaker 1>first time Dak one a game with that low of

0:30:08.280 --> 0:30:12.480
<v Speaker 1>a quarterback rating. His quarterback rating ended up being seventy

0:30:12.520 --> 0:30:16.160
<v Speaker 1>point nine. That usually means a loss. Yeah, and somehow

0:30:16.200 --> 0:30:19.880
<v Speaker 1>they were able to figure out how to win the game.

0:30:20.000 --> 0:30:22.800
<v Speaker 1>And you thank the defense for that, and really, yeah,

0:30:22.880 --> 0:30:25.080
<v Speaker 1>because it could have been worse. Right, some of those

0:30:25.160 --> 0:30:27.680
<v Speaker 1>drives that you know they held to field, they score

0:30:27.760 --> 0:30:31.680
<v Speaker 1>down there, it's thirty twenty. Yeah, test down, it's thirty twenty.

0:30:31.880 --> 0:30:35.960
<v Speaker 1>It's over. It's over. There's only three and change left

0:30:36.000 --> 0:30:38.360
<v Speaker 1>in the game, right, and there's no way that you're

0:30:38.400 --> 0:30:40.920
<v Speaker 1>you're going to score ten. So yeah, that's a good

0:30:40.960 --> 0:30:45.360
<v Speaker 1>team win. But again, the defense helps out. And one

0:30:45.360 --> 0:30:47.760
<v Speaker 1>of the things I think also got lost in the

0:30:47.800 --> 0:30:51.720
<v Speaker 1>shuffle was Brett Meyer hit another fifty yard field goal

0:30:51.800 --> 0:30:56.360
<v Speaker 1>fifty three yards right to cut the lead to just three. Um,

0:30:56.920 --> 0:30:58.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, when you're you're sitting there, at some point

0:30:58.840 --> 0:31:01.320
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna miss one of those, right, maybe the forty

0:31:01.400 --> 0:31:05.239
<v Speaker 1>six yard or the other days. Getting that out of here,

0:31:05.240 --> 0:31:07.800
<v Speaker 1>get it out of the way. That's right. Then we'll

0:31:07.800 --> 0:31:10.000
<v Speaker 1>see where we go from there. All right, Well, we'll

0:33:56.520 --> 0:34:02.320
<v Speaker 1>on mix Shots on a Monday after noon, kind of rainy, drizzly,

0:34:03.200 --> 0:34:07.480
<v Speaker 1>chilly day day. I just think we would have lost it.

0:34:10.520 --> 0:34:15.080
<v Speaker 1>But they won. They get to ten and three. They

0:34:15.120 --> 0:34:21.040
<v Speaker 1>still remain two games behind the Eagles. Jacksonville is up

0:34:21.120 --> 0:34:26.360
<v Speaker 1>next and the Cowboys definitely need to win that to

0:34:27.000 --> 0:34:30.080
<v Speaker 1>this this game. I was just gonna tell you about that.

0:34:30.160 --> 0:34:33.919
<v Speaker 1>This this Jacksonville game, it makes me even more nervous now, right,

0:34:34.320 --> 0:34:37.759
<v Speaker 1>because you know, we when we do our picks to click,

0:34:38.400 --> 0:34:41.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm always kind of cautious because I keep thinking we're

0:34:41.520 --> 0:34:43.759
<v Speaker 1>gonna go back and regrets the way we did this

0:34:43.840 --> 0:34:49.280
<v Speaker 1>particular game, okay, right, and we did that. We regressed.

0:34:49.840 --> 0:34:51.919
<v Speaker 1>And so when you're talking about going on the road

0:34:52.719 --> 0:34:57.320
<v Speaker 1>to a dangerous talented team, no team lacks for talent

0:34:57.360 --> 0:35:01.239
<v Speaker 1>in this league, all right, They just lacks direction. I

0:35:01.239 --> 0:35:06.480
<v Speaker 1>don't want them finding their way by going against Cowboys, okay.

0:35:06.640 --> 0:35:08.560
<v Speaker 1>And when you have a team like that coming on

0:35:09.800 --> 0:35:13.120
<v Speaker 1>coming into your stadium after playing the way we just played,

0:35:13.400 --> 0:35:15.520
<v Speaker 1>you know that they're licking their chops at the things

0:35:15.520 --> 0:35:18.719
<v Speaker 1>that they see that they can do. This game gave

0:35:19.000 --> 0:35:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Jacksonville even more hope that they can beat the Cowboys. Well,

0:35:22.200 --> 0:35:25.960
<v Speaker 1>and they gave themselves, hope, because even though they're five

0:35:26.000 --> 0:35:30.520
<v Speaker 1>and eight, they beat Tennessee thirty six to twenty. Going

0:35:30.640 --> 0:35:33.320
<v Speaker 1>on with Tennessee and they were on the road, Tennessee

0:35:33.360 --> 0:35:39.719
<v Speaker 1>was home, yes, thirty six twenty two and that, Yeah,

0:35:39.760 --> 0:35:43.040
<v Speaker 1>that's typical, because yeah, that's that's pretty much how Tennessee played.

0:35:43.040 --> 0:35:44.880
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't like it was closer than that or you know,

0:35:44.920 --> 0:35:48.000
<v Speaker 1>because they're no, that's pretty much the score depicts. And

0:35:48.040 --> 0:35:50.520
<v Speaker 1>they've gladly they played and they've lost too straight because

0:35:50.520 --> 0:35:53.400
<v Speaker 1>they were terrible last Tennessee was terrible last week. I

0:35:53.480 --> 0:35:57.600
<v Speaker 1>don't know. So now you got to win this game

0:35:57.680 --> 0:36:02.080
<v Speaker 1>to ensure that Christmas Eve against the Eagles is important,

0:36:02.239 --> 0:36:05.799
<v Speaker 1>right because if you end up three games down with

0:36:05.880 --> 0:36:09.120
<v Speaker 1>three to go, you probably don't like your eyes if

0:36:09.120 --> 0:36:13.480
<v Speaker 1>you're three games back. So uh yeah, this is also

0:36:13.520 --> 0:36:16.759
<v Speaker 1>an opportunity to show that they can win on the road, right,

0:36:16.800 --> 0:36:19.879
<v Speaker 1>to show that they can be consistent on the road,

0:36:20.239 --> 0:36:22.879
<v Speaker 1>because if things keep going the way they're going, they're

0:36:22.880 --> 0:36:25.839
<v Speaker 1>going to have a lot of tough tests in the

0:36:25.840 --> 0:36:30.440
<v Speaker 1>playoffs on the road. Right. Well, that's that's a good point,

0:36:30.560 --> 0:36:34.000
<v Speaker 1>and you know, you've got to be able to play

0:36:34.040 --> 0:36:36.239
<v Speaker 1>well on the road, and they've been known to go

0:36:36.280 --> 0:36:39.800
<v Speaker 1>to Jacksonville and struggle, right, Heck, they've been known to

0:36:39.880 --> 0:36:43.160
<v Speaker 1>struggle against everybody struggles in Jacksonville. Actually, I mean it's

0:36:43.760 --> 0:36:46.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's just that they're talented team with a

0:36:46.120 --> 0:36:51.000
<v Speaker 1>quarterback who can show amazing accuracy at times, and regardless

0:36:51.040 --> 0:36:53.439
<v Speaker 1>of whatever that situation is, they play with a lot

0:36:53.480 --> 0:36:57.319
<v Speaker 1>of youth and enthusiasm. And if you can do that,

0:36:57.840 --> 0:37:00.600
<v Speaker 1>you know that Jacksonville is nothing but a college town. Anyway,

0:37:01.000 --> 0:37:02.200
<v Speaker 1>next thing, you know, you sit up here in the

0:37:02.239 --> 0:37:05.480
<v Speaker 1>college atmosphere wondering, Man, I feel like I'm back at

0:37:05.480 --> 0:37:08.520
<v Speaker 1>Grandamat getting my butt kick, and that can happen. It

0:37:08.560 --> 0:37:12.120
<v Speaker 1>can happen. So you'll be glad to know they're three

0:37:12.160 --> 0:37:14.799
<v Speaker 1>and three at home, two and five on the road.

0:37:14.840 --> 0:37:18.719
<v Speaker 1>Does not make me feel better, all right. They are

0:37:19.080 --> 0:37:23.600
<v Speaker 1>three and six playing out of their division. They're four

0:37:23.640 --> 0:37:26.560
<v Speaker 1>and seven playing outdoors that they've got an outdoor stadium,

0:37:26.680 --> 0:37:31.200
<v Speaker 1>right So anyway, I just had all with all of

0:37:31.239 --> 0:37:34.200
<v Speaker 1>that that they have us exactly what they want us. Okay,

0:37:34.520 --> 0:37:37.319
<v Speaker 1>having said all of that, but they're three and two

0:37:37.440 --> 0:37:42.040
<v Speaker 1>in November and December about that, so yeah, so you

0:37:42.120 --> 0:37:46.319
<v Speaker 1>gotta okay, so the big question will be what are

0:37:46.320 --> 0:37:52.160
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys doing right tackle? Thank God for time and Smith? Well,

0:37:52.200 --> 0:37:54.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking that way now. I don't know if he's

0:37:55.000 --> 0:38:01.680
<v Speaker 1>ready to go, you know, sixty plays in that Florida heat, yeah,

0:38:02.239 --> 0:38:05.200
<v Speaker 1>or whatever, it's gonna be high. It's gonna be hot.

0:38:05.440 --> 0:38:08.799
<v Speaker 1>Because I think their thought was, Okay, this next game,

0:38:09.239 --> 0:38:11.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, maybe give him a series in the first half,

0:38:11.760 --> 0:38:16.440
<v Speaker 1>series in the second half, and then for Philadelphia bring

0:38:16.520 --> 0:38:21.920
<v Speaker 1>them in. Yeah. Um, because they did get a series

0:38:22.000 --> 0:38:26.400
<v Speaker 1>with Peters and move into left tackle, Tyler Smith to

0:38:26.800 --> 0:38:32.200
<v Speaker 1>left guard. But that that little experiment might be over with.

0:38:33.440 --> 0:38:36.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know if you say, all right, Tyrn,

0:38:37.640 --> 0:38:41.200
<v Speaker 1>you're the right tackle, right or they go with Peters

0:38:41.280 --> 0:38:45.800
<v Speaker 1>and Tyrons the backup for a game. Um, But it

0:38:45.880 --> 0:38:49.600
<v Speaker 1>sure sounded like their intentions. That sounds like they might

0:38:49.719 --> 0:38:53.000
<v Speaker 1>go and maybe for one game and then get him

0:38:53.120 --> 0:38:57.560
<v Speaker 1>in there some and then maybe for Philadelphia and you say, okay,

0:38:57.640 --> 0:38:59.400
<v Speaker 1>you're the right tackle. Because I don't know that you

0:39:00.040 --> 0:39:04.640
<v Speaker 1>want to move the rookie to right tackle. I don't

0:39:04.680 --> 0:39:08.399
<v Speaker 1>know how difficult that is. I've heard Zack Martin talk

0:39:08.480 --> 0:39:11.880
<v Speaker 1>about it's easier to go to a different position. Like

0:39:12.400 --> 0:39:15.000
<v Speaker 1>than a different side guard to tackle than change in

0:39:15.080 --> 0:39:20.120
<v Speaker 1>side right. Um, so we we talked about that in

0:39:20.200 --> 0:39:25.520
<v Speaker 1>training camp. Uh, you know it's a cornerback. You know,

0:39:25.560 --> 0:39:27.200
<v Speaker 1>I know I did it. I know several people have

0:39:27.320 --> 0:39:29.640
<v Speaker 1>done this. You've got safeties that have moved down to

0:39:29.719 --> 0:39:32.960
<v Speaker 1>the slot, you know Darren Woodson and played very well.

0:39:34.080 --> 0:39:37.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, I don't think, don't don't put it past

0:39:37.120 --> 0:39:39.719
<v Speaker 1>anyone until you ask them to do it. I think

0:39:40.360 --> 0:39:42.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, these guys are pros man, right, you know,

0:39:42.719 --> 0:39:45.719
<v Speaker 1>he's he's a competitor. Put him over there. If that's

0:39:45.760 --> 0:39:47.400
<v Speaker 1>what you need to do. Put them over there, and

0:39:47.560 --> 0:39:50.120
<v Speaker 1>let's let's work. I mean, you know, let's be like

0:39:50.239 --> 0:39:52.320
<v Speaker 1>the Ravens. I mean I always bring them up and

0:39:52.360 --> 0:39:56.000
<v Speaker 1>regards to there you know, uh tenacity and how they

0:39:56.040 --> 0:39:59.600
<v Speaker 1>try to overcome deficits. You know, you put they put

0:39:59.680 --> 0:40:02.920
<v Speaker 1>in three quarterbacks? Are two quarterbacks this weekend? I mean, man,

0:40:03.280 --> 0:40:06.320
<v Speaker 1>let's just do this. Let's not over complicate things. We

0:40:06.440 --> 0:40:07.920
<v Speaker 1>know what we have over here. We know we have

0:40:08.000 --> 0:40:09.800
<v Speaker 1>a talent over here. Let's not put them in a

0:40:09.840 --> 0:40:12.680
<v Speaker 1>precarious situation. Okay, let's call the players and need to

0:40:12.680 --> 0:40:16.040
<v Speaker 1>be called. Let's keep it simple and let's see where

0:40:16.040 --> 0:40:20.440
<v Speaker 1>we go from there, because you know, if you're I mean,

0:40:20.480 --> 0:40:22.759
<v Speaker 1>if you want to you know, as much as they've

0:40:22.800 --> 0:40:26.319
<v Speaker 1>been concentrating on you know, they ran the ball thirty

0:40:26.360 --> 0:40:30.440
<v Speaker 1>one times one hundred and twenty seven yards by the way,

0:40:32.800 --> 0:40:35.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know, run blocking on the right

0:40:35.120 --> 0:40:38.640
<v Speaker 1>side that much different than it can be, right, just

0:40:38.880 --> 0:40:43.239
<v Speaker 1>as big as tiring is and strong. Uh you know, yeah,

0:40:43.360 --> 0:40:46.480
<v Speaker 1>put them over there. But I just wonder in the

0:40:46.520 --> 0:40:48.880
<v Speaker 1>back of their minds, they're like, at least for this

0:40:49.040 --> 0:40:52.080
<v Speaker 1>coming game, do you not you know, want to play

0:40:52.200 --> 0:40:54.120
<v Speaker 1>him that many How much answers do you put on

0:40:54.280 --> 0:40:59.680
<v Speaker 1>winning the game versus protecting your players, right, you know,

0:41:00.440 --> 0:41:02.640
<v Speaker 1>not putting them in these And maybe they give him

0:41:02.680 --> 0:41:06.640
<v Speaker 1>more snaps than they would have, but not that manymore.

0:41:06.840 --> 0:41:10.440
<v Speaker 1>So maybe it's Peters and him over there, But then

0:41:10.600 --> 0:41:13.520
<v Speaker 1>somebody's got to take some snaps also to be the

0:41:13.600 --> 0:41:17.080
<v Speaker 1>backup left tackle. Um. Seeing, that's what happens when you

0:41:17.160 --> 0:41:19.880
<v Speaker 1>lose somebody. It's not the first value, it's now what

0:41:20.040 --> 0:41:22.520
<v Speaker 1>I what do I have? Domino effect behind him? Just

0:41:22.680 --> 0:41:26.040
<v Speaker 1>like we talked about with Kelvin Joseph, right, because you know,

0:41:26.440 --> 0:41:32.400
<v Speaker 1>if if if Dix couldn't come back, Nashan writes, in

0:41:32.480 --> 0:41:35.840
<v Speaker 1>the starting lineup, that's right. And now you have whoever

0:41:35.960 --> 0:41:39.000
<v Speaker 1>replaces right on special teams, right, you know, has to

0:41:39.280 --> 0:41:42.120
<v Speaker 1>do something because he came in to replace Kelvin Joseph

0:41:42.160 --> 0:41:46.440
<v Speaker 1>Fund special teams. Um, and then you're always another injury

0:41:46.520 --> 0:41:50.000
<v Speaker 1>away from Okay, Now who's next up at corner? Um?

0:41:50.840 --> 0:41:56.080
<v Speaker 1>You know? And Um? I had asked last week just

0:41:56.520 --> 0:42:00.440
<v Speaker 1>out of curiosity, like Mkuamu before they moved him to safety,

0:42:00.800 --> 0:42:03.960
<v Speaker 1>they drafted he was a corner okay, and I said,

0:42:04.040 --> 0:42:06.359
<v Speaker 1>so have they any chance? And he goes, well, they

0:42:06.719 --> 0:42:08.800
<v Speaker 1>haven't asked me to go over there and do anything,

0:42:08.960 --> 0:42:13.080
<v Speaker 1>so I don't know who else among the safeties would

0:42:13.120 --> 0:42:17.200
<v Speaker 1>be capable of playing corner. Um. You can only you

0:42:17.280 --> 0:42:19.520
<v Speaker 1>gotta put them in there to find outs backs. It might,

0:42:19.719 --> 0:42:22.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean it might be well. And they now they

0:42:22.440 --> 0:42:26.360
<v Speaker 1>got the two guys on on the practice squad Sheffield

0:42:26.840 --> 0:42:34.440
<v Speaker 1>and McKenny mackenzie, mcken Alexander Alexander right, Um, one of

0:42:34.480 --> 0:42:36.680
<v Speaker 1>those guys may have to be active. You might have

0:42:36.800 --> 0:42:40.319
<v Speaker 1>to elevate one and they'll just be playing special teams, right,

0:42:40.440 --> 0:42:42.680
<v Speaker 1>So that's great. Get him in there play special teams.

0:42:42.840 --> 0:42:45.560
<v Speaker 1>He can get accustomed to playing again and moving around

0:42:45.640 --> 0:42:48.560
<v Speaker 1>and that's all great. Just know what you're doing on

0:42:48.680 --> 0:42:52.200
<v Speaker 1>special teams. This guy was a he was drafted high

0:42:52.280 --> 0:42:55.000
<v Speaker 1>as a cornerback. He should have the ability and intellect

0:42:55.040 --> 0:42:57.320
<v Speaker 1>to go in there and play special teams. You know,

0:42:57.400 --> 0:43:01.759
<v Speaker 1>I tease about how weird special teams people are. I

0:43:01.760 --> 0:43:06.120
<v Speaker 1>don't want them, but sometimes they are special different, right,

0:43:06.239 --> 0:43:09.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty sure he can be special above special special teams.

0:43:10.080 --> 0:43:13.359
<v Speaker 1>Ye see. And that's what you know, what happens when

0:43:13.400 --> 0:43:16.800
<v Speaker 1>you lose starting guys, and it's it's like you said it,

0:43:16.880 --> 0:43:20.239
<v Speaker 1>it is the snowball fight. Now. To Joseph's credit, he

0:43:20.320 --> 0:43:22.759
<v Speaker 1>did give up the early deep pass, but after that,

0:43:23.200 --> 0:43:25.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, he came back and made a play that

0:43:26.120 --> 0:43:29.040
<v Speaker 1>was big, broke it up. That was big. That was

0:43:29.120 --> 0:43:33.400
<v Speaker 1>a huge third down play. And see, and that's what

0:43:33.480 --> 0:43:35.680
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna, you know, end this up with us.

0:43:36.200 --> 0:43:38.479
<v Speaker 1>We gotta be fit. We have to feel good about

0:43:38.520 --> 0:43:41.479
<v Speaker 1>this win because it was a win. Yeah, we can't.

0:43:41.560 --> 0:43:44.960
<v Speaker 1>We can't sit up here. And you know, we always

0:43:45.000 --> 0:43:47.680
<v Speaker 1>want to say that we're at that that pinnacle as

0:43:47.719 --> 0:43:50.560
<v Speaker 1>a team. Right now, Well, they keep trying to tell

0:43:50.680 --> 0:43:53.480
<v Speaker 1>us that they're not. They're doing their best to show

0:43:53.600 --> 0:43:56.040
<v Speaker 1>us that they're not at the pinnacle yet. And that's

0:43:56.080 --> 0:43:59.920
<v Speaker 1>good because we've got four games to wrap up two

0:44:00.120 --> 0:44:03.319
<v Speaker 1>being at our pinnacle. We're not there yet, but our

0:44:03.400 --> 0:44:06.839
<v Speaker 1>timing needs to be good like Cincinnati's timing last year.

0:44:07.200 --> 0:44:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Your timing needs to be good enough to where you

0:44:09.640 --> 0:44:13.960
<v Speaker 1>are getting at your peak at the right time. And

0:44:14.160 --> 0:44:17.279
<v Speaker 1>we are not at our peak right They're still got

0:44:17.400 --> 0:44:22.440
<v Speaker 1>things to clean up. And I remember Landry talking about, um,

0:44:23.080 --> 0:44:26.120
<v Speaker 1>you want to streak into the playoffs, not kind of

0:44:27.960 --> 0:44:31.399
<v Speaker 1>like that's why I always had problems with laying down

0:44:31.520 --> 0:44:33.640
<v Speaker 1>for that last game of the season. If you got

0:44:33.719 --> 0:44:35.880
<v Speaker 1>things clinch, you don't want to get guys hurt. But

0:44:37.440 --> 0:44:40.719
<v Speaker 1>sometimes in this game, momentum just means a lot. It

0:44:40.840 --> 0:44:43.720
<v Speaker 1>really does. Like you think of the thing the Giants

0:44:44.239 --> 0:44:47.160
<v Speaker 1>that that manning team were they nine to seven, Yeah,

0:44:47.239 --> 0:44:49.960
<v Speaker 1>and they go on to be what people thought was

0:44:50.000 --> 0:44:52.000
<v Speaker 1>one of the best teams in history with the Patriots

0:44:52.040 --> 0:44:58.400
<v Speaker 1>and Randy Moss, Right, Uh, that was the was that

0:44:58.800 --> 0:45:02.160
<v Speaker 1>that wasn't seven? That was there two of them that

0:45:02.440 --> 0:45:04.759
<v Speaker 1>get them both of them confused. It was the two

0:45:04.840 --> 0:45:08.160
<v Speaker 1>thousands unusual, Yeah, because they were they were the wild

0:45:08.200 --> 0:45:11.880
<v Speaker 1>card team on the way through, playing it playing on

0:45:12.000 --> 0:45:14.520
<v Speaker 1>the Green Bay. I mean, they'd be Green Bay with

0:45:14.640 --> 0:45:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Brett Farve right, and that started them going all the

0:45:18.560 --> 0:45:21.959
<v Speaker 1>way up. So we didn't review our picks to click

0:45:22.040 --> 0:45:30.400
<v Speaker 1>that we get not one of the let me, I know,

0:45:30.520 --> 0:45:33.359
<v Speaker 1>we didn't get the stores because we all we all

0:45:33.400 --> 0:45:35.759
<v Speaker 1>now know the score was hard. We all held the text.

0:45:35.920 --> 0:45:39.680
<v Speaker 1>I had Wilson points, I had Wilson getting an interception. Yeah,

0:45:40.160 --> 0:45:43.719
<v Speaker 1>you had DAK and Bill had CD. Now none of

0:45:43.800 --> 0:45:47.400
<v Speaker 1>them really Well, I get Dak for the drive. D

0:45:47.920 --> 0:45:50.919
<v Speaker 1>you get Maybe Bill gets CD for that that big

0:45:51.040 --> 0:45:53.560
<v Speaker 1>catch you know, to start things off. Oh yeah, the

0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:56.160
<v Speaker 1>huge hit he got. He got smashed and he held

0:45:56.200 --> 0:45:58.359
<v Speaker 1>on to that thing. That's the CD. I like, right,

0:45:58.480 --> 0:46:00.759
<v Speaker 1>he got smashed and he he got up and looked

0:46:00.760 --> 0:46:02.120
<v Speaker 1>at that guy like, hey man, why you hit me

0:46:02.200 --> 0:46:04.800
<v Speaker 1>so hard? That's what I lack about him. And of

0:46:04.920 --> 0:46:07.520
<v Speaker 1>course Wilson did okay, but gave up a touchdown and

0:46:08.400 --> 0:46:12.719
<v Speaker 1>he forced the football did and that was that was

0:46:12.840 --> 0:46:20.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of a weird defensive scheme because they motioned, uh

0:46:21.080 --> 0:46:25.239
<v Speaker 1>nineteen was is it more? Um? They motioned him to

0:46:25.400 --> 0:46:29.480
<v Speaker 1>that side and bland. They left bland on the right

0:46:29.560 --> 0:46:33.360
<v Speaker 1>side and then had your safety man demand against the

0:46:33.440 --> 0:46:38.040
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver. Yeah. Um, and I'd still like that. I

0:46:38.239 --> 0:46:41.239
<v Speaker 1>never got a good if that guy stepped out of

0:46:41.280 --> 0:46:44.239
<v Speaker 1>bounds before he cut the ball, because that's what they

0:46:44.280 --> 0:46:47.960
<v Speaker 1>were looking at, right, and that's what they challenged. It's okay,

0:46:48.120 --> 0:46:50.280
<v Speaker 1>they can challenge all they want. Or no, they didn't

0:46:50.400 --> 0:46:55.680
<v Speaker 1>challenge it because that's a penalty, and you can't challenge

0:46:55.719 --> 0:46:59.360
<v Speaker 1>a penalty. Oh we cannot. We cannot leave this program

0:46:59.560 --> 0:47:05.839
<v Speaker 1>without talking about l v oh My that got balls.

0:47:05.920 --> 0:47:08.520
<v Speaker 1>And it wasn't just the numbers, right. I saw him

0:47:08.520 --> 0:47:11.400
<v Speaker 1>stepping up into the hole, just like I was bragging

0:47:11.440 --> 0:47:15.680
<v Speaker 1>about the Giants linebackers. He was stepping in. I saw

0:47:15.760 --> 0:47:19.480
<v Speaker 1>him step in twice to make big stops and I'm

0:47:19.520 --> 0:47:22.879
<v Speaker 1>once again not going around blockers. But he almost did

0:47:22.920 --> 0:47:25.919
<v Speaker 1>the Sean Lee thing. He was in there. He knew

0:47:25.960 --> 0:47:28.680
<v Speaker 1>what was going on, he did like d law Yeah,

0:47:29.040 --> 0:47:31.439
<v Speaker 1>he knew what was happening before they snapped the ball.

0:47:31.680 --> 0:47:34.040
<v Speaker 1>DeMarcus Lawrence does that all the time, and I saw

0:47:34.160 --> 0:47:37.120
<v Speaker 1>Vanderish doing that as well in this game. I hadn't

0:47:37.120 --> 0:47:39.040
<v Speaker 1>never seen any play like that since his rookie year

0:47:39.080 --> 0:47:42.160
<v Speaker 1>and you know what, he was sick. I remember he

0:47:42.239 --> 0:47:45.360
<v Speaker 1>didn't practice on I hope his parents were still in

0:47:45.440 --> 0:47:50.480
<v Speaker 1>town telling hey, because this week out they should be

0:47:50.640 --> 0:47:53.040
<v Speaker 1>very proud of. That's something and you know what and

0:47:53.440 --> 0:47:56.560
<v Speaker 1>what Everson's referring to when we were talking with the

0:47:56.640 --> 0:48:02.239
<v Speaker 1>Star Sports Tour and answering questions and um, it was like, yeah,

0:48:02.400 --> 0:48:05.360
<v Speaker 1>vander Esh didn't practice. They're listening to them as questionable

0:48:05.480 --> 0:48:08.719
<v Speaker 1>with illness. And I said, he's a linebacker. He's playing.

0:48:08.840 --> 0:48:11.479
<v Speaker 1>He's playing, and mom and daddy are here too. I'm playing.

0:48:11.560 --> 0:48:14.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm playing, and he played. By the way, that was

0:48:14.600 --> 0:48:23.480
<v Speaker 1>a pretty good performance. Nine tackles, uh, nine solos, five assisted,

0:48:23.560 --> 0:48:26.520
<v Speaker 1>and he also had the one tackle for a loss.

0:48:26.680 --> 0:48:30.400
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, uh, that was the pick to click that,

0:48:31.000 --> 0:48:35.799
<v Speaker 1>that was the that's what. Yeah. Obviously, all right, we're
