0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:53.519
<v Speaker 1>those days are back, agay on the That's right, the

0:00:53.720 --> 0:00:57.160
<v Speaker 1>good old days are here again. The Cowboys have one

0:00:57.360 --> 0:01:00.840
<v Speaker 1>six in a row. They're headed for so Far Stadium

0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:06.920
<v Speaker 1>in February. The unflappable Dallas Cowboys flappable. Wow, When is

0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:09.880
<v Speaker 1>the last time we've talked in these terms? Because there

0:01:10.000 --> 0:01:12.640
<v Speaker 1>was a lot of flapping going off last night that

0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:15.240
<v Speaker 1>could have got last time we talked in these terms

0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:18.200
<v Speaker 1>was two weeks ago after New England and now a

0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:23.959
<v Speaker 1>road win at Minneapolis, and I'm I'm yeah, we did

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:26.880
<v Speaker 1>predict this on Friday, Yes we did. Yes, that's right.

0:01:27.520 --> 0:01:30.800
<v Speaker 1>You predicted this on Friday, right ever, so yeah, but

0:01:30.880 --> 0:01:35.840
<v Speaker 1>I did. I depicted him with the different quarterback. Yeah,

0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:39.160
<v Speaker 1>that's that's the main problem. I mean, my pick to

0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:44.360
<v Speaker 1>click just goes to crap, but mine shut up mine

0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:49.560
<v Speaker 1>once again, That's right. I was thinking about him. I

0:01:49.600 --> 0:01:51.760
<v Speaker 1>was thinking, that's right, and I was so happy he

0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:58.600
<v Speaker 1>was right because we needed dude all everywhere. It was ridiculous.

0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:03.200
<v Speaker 1>He looked like he was a state back from Indiana University.

0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:08.520
<v Speaker 1>Or four tackles for losses out of his eleven unbelievable.

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:12.239
<v Speaker 1>And that was only maybe the third most unbelievable thing

0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:14.800
<v Speaker 1>of the whole deal. Okay, what was the second most?

0:02:15.000 --> 0:02:20.800
<v Speaker 1>Come on the defense holding a team to sixteen points

0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:26.919
<v Speaker 1>and on first after giving up seven on the first drive. Yeah,

0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:29.920
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, okay, here we go. What I

0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:32.919
<v Speaker 1>right on Friday? This is the test for the defense.

0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Here comes Greg the leg always making things on this exciting.

0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:41.360
<v Speaker 1>And then they and then they've got first in goal

0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:44.600
<v Speaker 1>at the four on the last vic or the second

0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:47.480
<v Speaker 1>to last Vikings drive and they forced a field goal. Yeah,

0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:51.239
<v Speaker 1>and then you know what the first one is? Yes,

0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:55.120
<v Speaker 1>we know what the first. Let's rushed right into it right,

0:02:55.919 --> 0:03:03.079
<v Speaker 1>variably continue were they were last night? They were listening

0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:08.839
<v Speaker 1>to Prince before the game and rush after the very good,

0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:13.480
<v Speaker 1>very good, very very good. That is very good because

0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:18.000
<v Speaker 1>it was raining purple right, and then of course the

0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:21.600
<v Speaker 1>coop to coop. I like that little combination there coop

0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:27.120
<v Speaker 1>to cross. Very good, let's continue, see what happens when

0:03:27.160 --> 0:03:30.120
<v Speaker 1>you win. What was the most important play of the game, though,

0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's easy. What the excellent catch by Amari Cooper? Yeah,

0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:41.040
<v Speaker 1>I think that was huge. Second a second hold on

0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:46.120
<v Speaker 1>that was on second down. I second and ten at

0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:49.320
<v Speaker 1>the twenty five thirty three yards to Amari Cooper. How

0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:53.280
<v Speaker 1>if that wait, if that goes incomplete, they've got third down.

0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah okay, and that didn't seem to be a problem.

0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:01.640
<v Speaker 1>Uh yes, yeah, yeah. But but to my question, what

0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:08.960
<v Speaker 1>was the most important play of the game? Zeke Elliott? Yes, yes, yes,

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:16.640
<v Speaker 1>he split two tacklers twice twice twice. Yes, yes. So

0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>like last night on CBS eleven, it's all you know,

0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:21.400
<v Speaker 1>we're on the air at ten thirty in the games

0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:23.520
<v Speaker 1>still going on, so nobody's watching this. So I got

0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:26.760
<v Speaker 1>in people that this is what happened. All right. So

0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:28.960
<v Speaker 1>then the game ends, and so for the next thirty

0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:31.240
<v Speaker 1>minutes we're talking about the game, and we're just showing

0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:34.400
<v Speaker 1>the touchdown pass, and I'm like, what about the Zeke

0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:37.320
<v Speaker 1>play that's set up the touchdown pass? Because if Zeke

0:04:37.440 --> 0:04:39.720
<v Speaker 1>doesn't make that play and get that first down. So

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:42.039
<v Speaker 1>if they're kicking the field goal and we're still playing

0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:44.560
<v Speaker 1>this game, and who knows what happens. As good as

0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Cooper rush play, he he was gonna will himself exactly

0:04:49.360 --> 0:04:52.560
<v Speaker 1>the end zone, not the first down. He saw the

0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:54.839
<v Speaker 1>end zone. You know the reminder. You remember, and I

0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:59.600
<v Speaker 1>told you that Missouri Nebraska game, James Wilder like a

0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:03.080
<v Speaker 1>tur yard run that he willed himself that I saw

0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:06.239
<v Speaker 1>that happening. And look at this, he's not going down.

0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:09.800
<v Speaker 1>He will not go down. I actually remember that play

0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:14.120
<v Speaker 1>from years ago. I just I just hope everybody's eating

0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:17.479
<v Speaker 1>all their words about that guy that they were trying

0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:20.640
<v Speaker 1>to get rid of. Here's here's what I just You know,

0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:26.880
<v Speaker 1>he's pretty damn cool to me, our offensive coordinator, when

0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 1>you think about what just happened on that play. Zeke

0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Elliott splitting two tacklers twice. Right now, we know we've

0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 1>got plenty of time left on the clock. You got

0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Zeke back there, he's still feeling it. You know, we

0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:44.039
<v Speaker 1>know what we're gonna run. We're gonna go with that

0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:46.599
<v Speaker 1>inside hand off to Zeke and just let him find

0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:49.560
<v Speaker 1>his way in because our offensive line is bawling, you know,

0:05:50.120 --> 0:05:52.200
<v Speaker 1>the Vikings know we're coming with it because Zeke is

0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:55.599
<v Speaker 1>just just inspired. Everybody. Oh no, we're not going with that.

0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:57.640
<v Speaker 1>We're going to coop for a fade. We're gonna throw

0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:00.800
<v Speaker 1>a fade up. I think he should be a psychiatrist

0:06:01.520 --> 0:06:07.360
<v Speaker 1>or a psychologist because he's already understanding the tendency of

0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:09.919
<v Speaker 1>that defense so well, not just the tendency of the defense,

0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:14.279
<v Speaker 1>but the mood in the stadium. Because that's the second

0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:16.600
<v Speaker 1>time to me that he has come up with a

0:06:16.760 --> 0:06:23.800
<v Speaker 1>play that totally is against what we thought. Here's the

0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:26.960
<v Speaker 1>other part of that, because the announcers may have even

0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:29.920
<v Speaker 1>said it, it was fifty it was a minute left,

0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:34.200
<v Speaker 1>fifty five seconds when Zeke got that first down. Now

0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:37.280
<v Speaker 1>the thought enters your mind, milking the clock so that

0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:39.800
<v Speaker 1>the Vikings don't have an opportunity and still get your

0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:43.240
<v Speaker 1>touchdown I'm talking about. But the first words out of

0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Mike McCarthy's mouth after the game I think was complimentary football. Okay,

0:06:47.720 --> 0:06:50.760
<v Speaker 1>the way they played complimentary football, which is cliche. But

0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:56.640
<v Speaker 1>Kellen Moore also knew that this Vikings offense has not

0:06:56.760 --> 0:06:59.719
<v Speaker 1>scored a touchdown on the Dallas defense since the first

0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:03.520
<v Speaker 1>session of the game. If you go up four points

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:06.240
<v Speaker 1>on this team. It doesn't matter whether you score with

0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:09.080
<v Speaker 1>five seconds left or fifty one seconds left like they did.

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:13.440
<v Speaker 1>They're not gonna drive. He did not score. Ye And

0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:17.120
<v Speaker 1>and on the heels of you talk about willing yourself,

0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:20.920
<v Speaker 1>Zeke willing himself for that first down, I'm Aari Cooper

0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:24.080
<v Speaker 1>willing himself to get that completion that you talk about

0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:27.120
<v Speaker 1>the defense at the other end willing themself, even though

0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 1>they committed penalties that helped the Vikings get down to

0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:34.520
<v Speaker 1>the field, willing themselves. There was no way the Vikings

0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:37.560
<v Speaker 1>were gonna get in that end zone with the determination

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:41.360
<v Speaker 1>was the main one that went off a little bit.

0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:47.440
<v Speaker 1>Don't get me started. That's the third. Even the commentators like,

0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:51.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't see anything. It's just ridiculous on summer Christmas.

0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:53.320
<v Speaker 1>But I like the way I liked Randy Gregory. He

0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:56.040
<v Speaker 1>seemed to be the focus of you know this this

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:58.680
<v Speaker 1>topsy turvy thing going at the time because a couple

0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:03.320
<v Speaker 1>of bad penalties, whether you believe the cause or not.

0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:06.320
<v Speaker 1>But then his determination to say, you know what, let

0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:10.520
<v Speaker 1>me write this wrong right now, I'm gonna go and

0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:14.880
<v Speaker 1>just he just crashed inside. He said it after the game.

0:08:15.000 --> 0:08:17.760
<v Speaker 1>He said, I don't know, maybe I play better mad.

0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:22.200
<v Speaker 1>He was mad, they were mad. The whole defense was

0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:25.520
<v Speaker 1>I love that. I love it. So the other play

0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:28.760
<v Speaker 1>that I thought set the tone for the entire second

0:08:28.800 --> 0:08:34.160
<v Speaker 1>half Cooper Rush, Let's face it, he struggling, and let's

0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:38.640
<v Speaker 1>face it, I'll guarantee you at halftime, everybody out there

0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:42.320
<v Speaker 1>is thinking, we got this guy. And Mike White just

0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:46.920
<v Speaker 1>threw for far hundred yards with the Jets against it,

0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:52.240
<v Speaker 1>and they the Cowboys, they this guy. Man, I just

0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:55.960
<v Speaker 1>don't I'm sorry. And then on the third play of

0:08:56.000 --> 0:09:00.199
<v Speaker 1>the third quarter, he throws a seventy three yard touchdown

0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:05.319
<v Speaker 1>pass to my playmaker, Cedric Wilson, play maker who caught

0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:07.640
<v Speaker 1>the ball. It was at the twenty seven, so he

0:09:07.679 --> 0:09:10.840
<v Speaker 1>caught it at the fifty, and he outran three guys

0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:13.679
<v Speaker 1>that had the angle on him, and he made a

0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:17.000
<v Speaker 1>pro bow safety look like he was in high school right, yes,

0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:21.280
<v Speaker 1>like he was running in mud. It was unbelievable. And

0:09:21.320 --> 0:09:23.880
<v Speaker 1>by the way, if Cooper Rush had spit the bit

0:09:23.920 --> 0:09:28.080
<v Speaker 1>and not been able to be the Cowboys backup quarterback

0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:35.920
<v Speaker 1>going forward, I vote for Cedric Wilson. Yeah, goodness. Coversation.

0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:43.559
<v Speaker 1>How about the pass he through, that's the left and

0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:47.880
<v Speaker 1>the like I've done this, Yes, this is what I

0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:52.200
<v Speaker 1>did in college. Unbelievable And I love the way Ced

0:09:52.520 --> 0:09:57.200
<v Speaker 1>stayed with it. They pulled that, stayed with the route. Guys,

0:09:57.240 --> 0:10:02.400
<v Speaker 1>we made a good defense. Look pedestrian, that's the best acts. Well,

0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:06.480
<v Speaker 1>maybe they weren't good because they always people that. Yeah,

0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:09.600
<v Speaker 1>we always show people that went from yardage stamppoint. They

0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:12.520
<v Speaker 1>were mediocre, right, and they kind of played to that.

0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:16.120
<v Speaker 1>I think we gave Minnesota way too much credit, you know,

0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:20.520
<v Speaker 1>fifth rank offense. Yes, oh, they got reduced to nothing.

0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:27.760
<v Speaker 1>Kirk Cousins looked like Captain Kirk. I mean, he just

0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:30.640
<v Speaker 1>he just looked. He got out dueled by a guy

0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 1>making his first NFL start in his career. He threw

0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.800
<v Speaker 1>for like one hundred and eighty seven yards. Didn't he

0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:39.680
<v Speaker 1>make two hundred and the two guys we were most worried.

0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:42.200
<v Speaker 1>You know, when the game started dealing, it's like, okay,

0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:47.199
<v Speaker 1>they can't deal itly, right, and then and then he disappeared.

0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:51.000
<v Speaker 1>The guy they couldn't cover was the tight end Conklin,

0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:57.439
<v Speaker 1>but somehow, some way they held him to sixteen points. Well,

0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:00.840
<v Speaker 1>Um and the Vikings came into this game second in

0:11:00.840 --> 0:11:03.320
<v Speaker 1>the league and third down percentage defense, and they went

0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:07.599
<v Speaker 1>one for twelve. I think their defense, their defense in

0:11:07.760 --> 0:11:11.000
<v Speaker 1>defense and the Cowboys third down defense one for thirteen.

0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:15.600
<v Speaker 1>Um was the vikings on third down? Yes, and the

0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:18.120
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys were seven for fourteen on third and the first

0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:20.600
<v Speaker 1>one they picked up was the first drive on third

0:11:20.640 --> 0:11:25.480
<v Speaker 1>down and then they went over twelve. Wow. Wow, that's good. Okay,

0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:29.440
<v Speaker 1>so can we say that so back to where I started,

0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:32.360
<v Speaker 1>Prescotts would have played, they would have beat them by

0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:37.480
<v Speaker 1>oh my goodness. Well people wide open. They were just

0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:40.200
<v Speaker 1>wide open on the outside. Well, because they were so

0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:43.160
<v Speaker 1>worried about stopping the run, right, they were gonna stop.

0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:46.000
<v Speaker 1>I didn't get a chance to go back and do this.

0:11:46.080 --> 0:11:48.560
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to see how many times the Cowboys were

0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:52.240
<v Speaker 1>in second and eight because they ran for two yards.

0:11:52.600 --> 0:11:55.280
<v Speaker 1>They ran for two yards, they ran for two yards,

0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:57.840
<v Speaker 1>and then they're in second and eight. It was incredible,

0:11:58.160 --> 0:12:00.960
<v Speaker 1>but they were gonna stop the run. But you know what,

0:12:01.840 --> 0:12:07.280
<v Speaker 1>your guy, Kellen Moore devised a wishbone offense with two

0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:12.400
<v Speaker 1>offensive lightnman, did you see that? Two offensive Collins and

0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:16.160
<v Speaker 1>McGovern right, Yeah, it's like, okay, I don't know if

0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:19.400
<v Speaker 1>we're running the ball or making sure we protect our quarterback.

0:12:19.559 --> 0:12:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Right you're gonna have to come through the Berlin wall.

0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:25.679
<v Speaker 1>That is some smash mouse football right there. You got

0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:28.600
<v Speaker 1>two in the backfield, you got Zeke Ellen getting the ball.

0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:32.920
<v Speaker 1>That's some smash. Collins played four snaps and and uh

0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:38.280
<v Speaker 1>McGovern played seven. Colins should have played thirty some snaps

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:41.600
<v Speaker 1>and getting the secy off the field. So why did

0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:45.120
<v Speaker 1>why was that move made? Didn't not like it explained

0:12:45.160 --> 0:12:48.640
<v Speaker 1>it afterwards, or at least Lale did that he had

0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:53.040
<v Speaker 1>not had any work whatsoever and tackle since he moved

0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:57.839
<v Speaker 1>from left guard, although he pointed out that going left

0:12:57.960 --> 0:12:59.959
<v Speaker 1>is a lot easier or that's what was his naw

0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.719
<v Speaker 1>natural deal because at LSU I believe he was the

0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:06.839
<v Speaker 1>left tackle. So it was a shock that Tyrn Smith

0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:08.360
<v Speaker 1>came out of the game. Is that what we're saying

0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.000
<v Speaker 1>with that ankle? I mean, yeah, he came out of

0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:15.360
<v Speaker 1>the last game and he's he's been bothered by that ankle.

0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:18.560
<v Speaker 1>I know, So why not work Lyle Collins at left tackle?

0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Or or because they were working on Matt right tackle

0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:27.040
<v Speaker 1>and left guard, or yeah and I'm doing it. No,

0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:30.920
<v Speaker 1>you don't want to, Okay, are you? The problem is

0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:36.520
<v Speaker 1>making two two moves, Like because Terrence has played left tackle, Collins,

0:13:36.520 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 1>you start working at left tap. Can't put up with that,

0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:42.400
<v Speaker 1>so let me ask it. But you, guys, I guess

0:13:42.480 --> 0:13:45.560
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't know either. But you know, I played left corn

0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:51.040
<v Speaker 1>at right corner. Is it that difficult to change? You know? Um?

0:13:51.440 --> 0:13:54.880
<v Speaker 1>I heard when he moved from left guard to right tackle.

0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:58.000
<v Speaker 1>There was a transition there and I get the guard

0:13:58.080 --> 0:14:01.880
<v Speaker 1>to tackle, but from no, no, but but um being

0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:05.160
<v Speaker 1>left footed or whatever, left hand and then you got

0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:08.040
<v Speaker 1>to go right handed. And Nate was pointing out that

0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:11.120
<v Speaker 1>when you go to the right side, then you're punching

0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:14.240
<v Speaker 1>with the hand you're not used to punching with. You're

0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:17.360
<v Speaker 1>used to punching with your left hand. And once again

0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:19.320
<v Speaker 1>right on the left corner, the same thing. When I

0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:21.800
<v Speaker 1>come up in jam, I still I have to do that.

0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:25.120
<v Speaker 1>I just didn't know that that change was so difficult

0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:27.840
<v Speaker 1>for an offensive linement. I found out when I played

0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:30.080
<v Speaker 1>that I played left corner back here the whole time.

0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:32.560
<v Speaker 1>But when I got to New York, I found out

0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:35.280
<v Speaker 1>that I felt more comfortable on the right side. I

0:14:35.320 --> 0:14:38.440
<v Speaker 1>guess because I'm right handed. I don't know. But still

0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:40.800
<v Speaker 1>I played left corner and at right hand. I just

0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:43.000
<v Speaker 1>don't know that. I probably think it should be vet.

0:14:43.200 --> 0:14:47.120
<v Speaker 1>I think you're de leading with one foot. Yeah, of course,

0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:50.240
<v Speaker 1>of course, yes, it all it all changes, Yes, it

0:14:50.360 --> 0:14:52.000
<v Speaker 1>all changed. I just didn't know it was. It was

0:14:52.040 --> 0:14:55.480
<v Speaker 1>that difficult. And I think Lyle probably played left tackle.

0:14:56.120 --> 0:14:58.120
<v Speaker 1>That's what he did. Yeah, yeah, okay, I would have

0:14:58.240 --> 0:14:59.720
<v Speaker 1>thrown him out there. I'm sorry, because you know what

0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:02.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm throwing them out there? Ad left tackle and just

0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:05.200
<v Speaker 1>they go for it bo And I'm so right handed.

0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:08.800
<v Speaker 1>I always had problem in basketball with my left hand.

0:15:09.160 --> 0:15:11.680
<v Speaker 1>But when I ski, I turned better to the left

0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:14.400
<v Speaker 1>and to do to the right, and and to me,

0:15:14.480 --> 0:15:16.160
<v Speaker 1>like I said, it just so it's just a matter

0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.440
<v Speaker 1>of what you have to do. I never knew which

0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:21.000
<v Speaker 1>corner I was better at. When they put me at left,

0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:23.880
<v Speaker 1>and you just play left. You don't necessarily worry about,

0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:26.320
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, my right hand and my left hand.

0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:28.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm right hand. I never really wor about that. I

0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:31.560
<v Speaker 1>don't think dbs necessarily do that. I guess this is

0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:33.800
<v Speaker 1>a thing with mostly linement. Well, I mean, if you're

0:15:33.800 --> 0:15:35.840
<v Speaker 1>going to travel with somebody, you better be able to

0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:39.560
<v Speaker 1>go both ways, which, by the way, your interception records

0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:42.360
<v Speaker 1>look a little bit better after you know, I was

0:15:42.400 --> 0:15:44.680
<v Speaker 1>hoping they mentioned my name last night. Well they did

0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:54.960
<v Speaker 1>seven Griffin. Yeah, yeah, Well he didn't get the pick,

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:58.000
<v Speaker 1>that's why, boy, and he got burned a couple times,

0:15:58.960 --> 0:16:02.960
<v Speaker 1>justin Jefferson. Two catches ye, twenty one yards and a PI.

0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:06.880
<v Speaker 1>That pi. I just knew that was his right, I

0:16:06.920 --> 0:16:10.040
<v Speaker 1>just knew he was gonna go up and get that thing. Yeah,

0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:12.360
<v Speaker 1>that was laid up there long enough for him to

0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:14.200
<v Speaker 1>do that. Or there was another one. He had a

0:16:14.320 --> 0:16:16.480
<v Speaker 1>late break on it, and I thought he was going

0:16:16.520 --> 0:16:19.040
<v Speaker 1>to get there, and he didn't get there in time

0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:24.120
<v Speaker 1>on the out in the left flank. Yes, right, yeah,

0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:29.840
<v Speaker 1>so but that's an improbable victory. That's all I got

0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:34.040
<v Speaker 1>with no turnovers, no takeaway, no takeaways, no takeaways. And

0:16:34.440 --> 0:16:37.880
<v Speaker 1>they were talking about it local radio driving in that

0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:42.440
<v Speaker 1>that was the Cowboys best win of the year. I

0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:46.400
<v Speaker 1>go New England. England was New England was because I

0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:50.440
<v Speaker 1>know what the most surprising, Yeah, most surprising. I wouldn't

0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:54.080
<v Speaker 1>say the best England. Because I was walking out this morning,

0:16:54.120 --> 0:16:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I was thinking about what you said about the New

0:16:56.400 --> 0:17:00.800
<v Speaker 1>England game. I don't feel about this game that feel good.

0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I feel it feels great to surprise everyone.

0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:06.160
<v Speaker 1>But that New England game, it just was a moment there.

0:17:06.200 --> 0:17:09.399
<v Speaker 1>Like you said, all even families were involved in a

0:17:09.520 --> 0:17:12.600
<v Speaker 1>game like that. Well, and but in the Patriots they

0:17:12.640 --> 0:17:15.600
<v Speaker 1>beat the Chargers this weekend. I think the Patriots have

0:17:15.800 --> 0:17:19.200
<v Speaker 1>a better football team than the Vikings do, which isolutely

0:17:19.440 --> 0:17:22.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, and you know, and the Vikings. I mean

0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:25.480
<v Speaker 1>that with the weapons they've got, you know, more experienced

0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:29.120
<v Speaker 1>quarterback and all that stuff. But I would I think

0:17:29.119 --> 0:17:33.000
<v Speaker 1>the Patriots will have a better season than what the Vikings.

0:17:33.000 --> 0:17:36.760
<v Speaker 1>Well Jones, he's starting to get better, right, so that's

0:17:36.760 --> 0:17:39.439
<v Speaker 1>why I think that win was a better win. But

0:17:39.560 --> 0:17:44.840
<v Speaker 1>the adversity in this game, no Dak Tyring plays. I

0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:51.960
<v Speaker 1>think it was thirty thirty one snaps so Fort into

0:17:52.000 --> 0:17:56.680
<v Speaker 1>the second quarter. I guess it was uh Cooper's massaging

0:17:56.760 --> 0:18:02.680
<v Speaker 1>his hamstring during the last drive and got this little

0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:07.840
<v Speaker 1>ball rolling. I thought he was rubbing it with his hand, right,

0:18:08.000 --> 0:18:10.400
<v Speaker 1>I think he had the ball he started hand. He

0:18:10.400 --> 0:18:14.560
<v Speaker 1>started with his hand after I saw him laying on

0:18:14.560 --> 0:18:18.240
<v Speaker 1>the ground. And I've I've seen that with they have

0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:22.120
<v Speaker 1>you know in the yoga classes they have the little thing. Yeah,

0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:24.400
<v Speaker 1>but but not all the little balls. Right, but I've

0:18:24.440 --> 0:18:28.320
<v Speaker 1>never seen, you know, eleven penalties for ninety six yards.

0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:31.480
<v Speaker 1>Did our best to lose that game? We tested ourselves

0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:36.879
<v Speaker 1>so much, the damn horn going off Halloween night, I

0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:41.000
<v Speaker 1>mean on the roads. The second win this year they

0:18:41.000 --> 0:18:46.120
<v Speaker 1>won with only scoring twenty points. Remember my stat previous

0:18:46.200 --> 0:18:49.639
<v Speaker 1>year they hadn't They hadn't won a game without scoring

0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:54.679
<v Speaker 1>thirty points going to the game fifteen of twenty eighteen eighteen.

0:18:54.840 --> 0:18:58.320
<v Speaker 1>So this is the second fewest points matches, the second

0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:02.680
<v Speaker 1>fewest points they've scored to win a game, and the

0:19:02.720 --> 0:19:08.879
<v Speaker 1>first time they've won a game scoring sixteen points or

0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:14.280
<v Speaker 1>holding somebody to sixteen points since they beat the Saints

0:19:14.359 --> 0:19:17.280
<v Speaker 1>thirteen to ten. I think it was forty one games ago,

0:19:17.440 --> 0:19:22.080
<v Speaker 1>twenty eighteen December of twenty eighteen. Yeah, all right, Well,

0:19:22.119 --> 0:19:24.439
<v Speaker 1>there's so much to talk about, and we're just getting

0:19:24.520 --> 0:19:27.680
<v Speaker 1>started here on an early edition of mix Shots. And

0:19:27.720 --> 0:19:31.400
<v Speaker 1>the reason we're here early is the others are traveling back,

0:19:31.440 --> 0:19:35.120
<v Speaker 1>including our producer Chris Beam. But Aaron did a great

0:19:35.200 --> 0:19:40.040
<v Speaker 1>job of finding our victory Monday. I don't know, but

0:19:40.160 --> 0:19:42.320
<v Speaker 1>those guys that came back on the charter, they might

0:19:42.359 --> 0:19:46.159
<v Speaker 1>have got to bed before I did. You're such a

0:19:46.200 --> 0:19:48.760
<v Speaker 1>hard work I know. I felt like when I was

0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:52.560
<v Speaker 1>walking in this morning, I had just left. Well, we

0:19:52.640 --> 0:19:56.520
<v Speaker 1>are going to continue talking about a victory in Minnesota

0:19:56.640 --> 0:20:00.960
<v Speaker 1>as Victory Monday continues on mix Shots in just a moment, Honey,

0:20:01.040 --> 0:20:04.280
<v Speaker 1>big news, Gary? Are you okay? Oh? I'm not Gary anymore.

0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:07.720

<v Speaker 1>That was tried throwing some new stuff at me. All right,

0:22:37.280 --> 0:22:39.760
<v Speaker 1>there's so much to talk about on last night's game.

0:22:39.800 --> 0:22:41.920
<v Speaker 1>There's not enough time to talk about all of it.

0:22:42.400 --> 0:22:46.000
<v Speaker 1>But Cooper Rush. I just love the shots of the

0:22:46.080 --> 0:22:49.560
<v Speaker 1>Rush family. I was unbelievable. It was really cool. Well,

0:22:49.600 --> 0:22:52.840
<v Speaker 1>you know what, his wife basically gave me my lead

0:22:53.480 --> 0:22:59.359
<v Speaker 1>because I could see her mouthing, oh my god after

0:22:59.440 --> 0:23:02.520
<v Speaker 1>the touch out pass. No, I saw the dad mouthing

0:23:02.760 --> 0:23:06.320
<v Speaker 1>we should start running the ball. Now you read that.

0:23:06.400 --> 0:23:08.919
<v Speaker 1>Didn't see that because I think it was before he

0:23:08.960 --> 0:23:11.080
<v Speaker 1>got sacked and fumbled because we all of a sudden,

0:23:11.119 --> 0:23:14.240
<v Speaker 1>we just kept treating goople like like Dak. We were

0:23:14.320 --> 0:23:17.840
<v Speaker 1>going back every time throwing the ball, and I'm thinking, yeah,

0:23:17.880 --> 0:23:19.480
<v Speaker 1>we need to we need to run the ball. Now

0:23:19.680 --> 0:23:22.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking about and I was thinking like and by

0:23:22.320 --> 0:23:24.040
<v Speaker 1>the way, every time he told the ball before you go.

0:23:24.160 --> 0:23:27.159
<v Speaker 1>Every time we threw the ball, it's so soft. You know,

0:23:27.240 --> 0:23:31.600
<v Speaker 1>you're like biting your nails until someone catches it because

0:23:31.640 --> 0:23:33.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, you're just kind of nervous for the kid

0:23:33.480 --> 0:23:35.760
<v Speaker 1>and of course for the cowboy because he's not firing

0:23:35.760 --> 0:23:40.960
<v Speaker 1>it right. Not his arm releases slow, like the near

0:23:41.040 --> 0:23:44.560
<v Speaker 1>interception in the first half that was strapped, yes, because

0:23:44.560 --> 0:23:47.840
<v Speaker 1>they would follow the ball. But then there was nobody

0:23:47.880 --> 0:23:50.040
<v Speaker 1>in the in sight, right. I think it was the

0:23:50.119 --> 0:23:55.240
<v Speaker 1>passing through to maybe Wilson. It was like there was

0:23:55.320 --> 0:23:57.800
<v Speaker 1>no one there. Then all of a sudden, oh, there

0:23:57.800 --> 0:24:00.639
<v Speaker 1>he is in the balls right there. But just just

0:24:00.840 --> 0:24:04.600
<v Speaker 1>think about Cooper Rush's journey to that night, and he

0:24:04.760 --> 0:24:07.240
<v Speaker 1>talked about after the game. It was not only his

0:24:07.320 --> 0:24:10.560
<v Speaker 1>wife and his mom and dad, brother, but but yeah,

0:24:10.560 --> 0:24:14.400
<v Speaker 1>brothers and friends and stuff. They all came because they

0:24:14.480 --> 0:24:17.919
<v Speaker 1>knew this was his moment. Finally getting an opportunity as

0:24:17.920 --> 0:24:21.600
<v Speaker 1>a college free agent out of Central Michigan. And when

0:24:21.600 --> 0:24:25.440
<v Speaker 1>you think about even last year, after being a backup

0:24:25.440 --> 0:24:28.200
<v Speaker 1>and really not getting an opportunity, only throwing three passes

0:24:28.200 --> 0:24:32.240
<v Speaker 1>in his career, completing one for two yards over four years. Uh,

0:24:32.680 --> 0:24:35.439
<v Speaker 1>you know when the Cowboys, when the Cowboys got Andy

0:24:35.520 --> 0:24:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Dalton in April or early May of last year, they

0:24:38.760 --> 0:24:42.040
<v Speaker 1>released Cooper Rush. And the only place he landed was

0:24:42.080 --> 0:24:44.520
<v Speaker 1>of course, with Jason Garrett with the Giants and the

0:24:44.600 --> 0:24:47.199
<v Speaker 1>coach that was familiar with him. He gets let go

0:24:47.280 --> 0:24:50.160
<v Speaker 1>by the Giants and now he's a practice squad guy,

0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:52.760
<v Speaker 1>getting picked up only because the Cowboys had an opening

0:24:52.760 --> 0:24:55.800
<v Speaker 1>because Dad gets hurt, and he doesn't even get the opportunity.

0:24:55.840 --> 0:24:58.920
<v Speaker 1>When the Cowboys go through so many quarterbacks last year

0:24:59.119 --> 0:25:01.440
<v Speaker 1>after Dalton, go doubt and you got the new gie,

0:25:01.520 --> 0:25:03.720
<v Speaker 1>you got Gary Gilbert, They're still not giving Cooper Rush

0:25:04.000 --> 0:25:06.199
<v Speaker 1>a chance. And then you fast forward all the way

0:25:06.240 --> 0:25:09.560
<v Speaker 1>to training camp this year and he was the third

0:25:09.600 --> 0:25:11.879
<v Speaker 1>as Stephen Jones said before the game, he was the

0:25:12.000 --> 0:25:15.280
<v Speaker 1>third or fourth team quarterback coming into training camp. But

0:25:15.880 --> 0:25:21.240
<v Speaker 1>steady Eddie, he just he is able to just show

0:25:21.280 --> 0:25:25.240
<v Speaker 1>them on a consistent day to day basis that he's

0:25:25.280 --> 0:25:27.679
<v Speaker 1>not going to be the one started to go. He

0:25:27.880 --> 0:25:30.400
<v Speaker 1>stayed right, and then you know, he had the game

0:25:30.440 --> 0:25:33.160
<v Speaker 1>against the Texans in the preseason, which you got to start,

0:25:33.720 --> 0:25:36.000
<v Speaker 1>do a couple of touchdown passes, and that's what earned

0:25:36.080 --> 0:25:39.440
<v Speaker 1>him the backup role. He said after the game that

0:25:40.240 --> 0:25:44.800
<v Speaker 1>this time last year, I was sitting on my couch basically,

0:25:45.760 --> 0:25:49.520
<v Speaker 1>and if you think about it, I looked it up.

0:25:49.880 --> 0:25:54.879
<v Speaker 1>So the last time he started the game was December

0:25:54.960 --> 0:26:04.359
<v Speaker 1>of twenty sixteen, the Miami Beach Bowl for Central Michigan

0:26:04.880 --> 0:26:11.280
<v Speaker 1>against Tulsa. And isn't that that's that's same school. Well,

0:26:11.560 --> 0:26:16.760
<v Speaker 1>guess what. This is the most yards passing by a

0:26:16.800 --> 0:26:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys quarterback making his first NFL start with the Cowboys

0:26:22.119 --> 0:26:25.760
<v Speaker 1>since Hoga Boom through for like three forty something in

0:26:25.800 --> 0:26:28.600
<v Speaker 1>the season opener in eighty four. Yeah, so this is

0:26:28.640 --> 0:26:31.080
<v Speaker 1>more than that was that was that was the whole

0:26:31.160 --> 0:26:38.760
<v Speaker 1>quarterback I'm starting another one. Yeah, tell that's right. Job

0:26:39.480 --> 0:26:45.280
<v Speaker 1>starter got hurt. That was when Philip was announced as

0:26:45.359 --> 0:26:53.399
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys starting quarterback. Lady press conference. He was so nervous.

0:26:54.680 --> 0:26:57.399
<v Speaker 1>The day I was interviewing for my job at the

0:26:57.480 --> 0:27:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Dallas times. Oh, I mean, Hogan, that's when Tom knew

0:27:03.280 --> 0:27:06.119
<v Speaker 1>that he could see the incoming I believe. So I

0:27:06.160 --> 0:27:08.639
<v Speaker 1>went back and looked, and I said, you know, the

0:27:09.040 --> 0:27:13.480
<v Speaker 1>improbability of this this win takes us back to seventy

0:27:13.520 --> 0:27:17.320
<v Speaker 1>four Clinton Longley coming in for Roger against the Redskins,

0:27:17.440 --> 0:27:21.280
<v Speaker 1>leading him to a victory Hoga boom in his first

0:27:21.320 --> 0:27:26.720
<v Speaker 1>start in eighty four, m Steve Burline coming in for

0:27:26.880 --> 0:27:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Aightman at the beginning near the beginning of the third

0:27:30.320 --> 0:27:36.080
<v Speaker 1>quarter in ninety one to beat the undefeated Redskins, and

0:27:36.119 --> 0:27:40.720
<v Speaker 1>then Jason Garrett on Thanksgiving days right, and even Tony

0:27:40.800 --> 0:27:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Romo's first start, his first start in two thousand and six,

0:27:44.280 --> 0:27:47.000
<v Speaker 1>he threw for two hundred and some yards and beat

0:27:47.200 --> 0:27:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Carolina on the road. And I said, well, this has

0:27:50.000 --> 0:27:52.919
<v Speaker 1>got to be the next one, because the Cowboys have

0:27:53.119 --> 0:27:59.359
<v Speaker 1>not had much luck with backup quarterbacks since and this

0:27:59.400 --> 0:28:05.320
<v Speaker 1>guy first start of any game since twenty sixteen, and

0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:07.600
<v Speaker 1>he comes out and does that the second half. It

0:28:07.680 --> 0:28:12.280
<v Speaker 1>was pretty magical in a couple of cities with backup quarterbacks.

0:28:12.280 --> 0:28:17.640
<v Speaker 1>With the Pittsburgh no, no, it was the Saints Trevor Simeon, yes,

0:28:17.840 --> 0:28:21.400
<v Speaker 1>thank you. And then the Jets with Mike White. Mike

0:28:21.520 --> 0:28:29.040
<v Speaker 1>White him, Yeah, fifth round draft choice, and they kept

0:28:29.080 --> 0:28:34.560
<v Speaker 1>him his rookie year and then in training camp it

0:28:34.600 --> 0:28:38.880
<v Speaker 1>would have been twenty eighteen, he just wasn't very good.

0:28:38.920 --> 0:28:41.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what happened to him. They cut him.

0:28:41.200 --> 0:28:42.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if they thought they could cut him

0:28:42.800 --> 0:28:45.960
<v Speaker 1>and put him on the practice squad. But he gets

0:28:46.000 --> 0:28:49.280
<v Speaker 1>picked up because they were going to use Clayton Thorson

0:28:50.000 --> 0:28:56.040
<v Speaker 1>as the third quarterback on the practice squad. Clayton Thorson,

0:28:58.840 --> 0:29:02.240
<v Speaker 1>think about it, and then he comes out and does this.

0:29:02.800 --> 0:29:07.200
<v Speaker 1>I think the even the backup quarterback in Seattle one.

0:29:07.560 --> 0:29:10.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, Gino Smith, you know look good? Yeah, Geno

0:29:10.520 --> 0:29:14.080
<v Speaker 1>look real good. No turnovers, two touchdowns. But I thought

0:29:14.160 --> 0:29:17.840
<v Speaker 1>the uh I was I was comparing the Saints Simeon

0:29:17.960 --> 0:29:22.520
<v Speaker 1>to to our Cooper and Uh with my son and

0:29:22.560 --> 0:29:26.280
<v Speaker 1>I were comparing the two wins last night, especially with UH,

0:29:26.320 --> 0:29:29.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, beating and who you're playing, Tampa. I mean,

0:29:29.160 --> 0:29:31.840
<v Speaker 1>you're beating Tampa Bay. And I don't know what what's

0:29:31.840 --> 0:29:35.440
<v Speaker 1>the deal with Brady in the Superdome, but for some reason,

0:29:35.480 --> 0:29:38.560
<v Speaker 1>he just doesn't bring his a game to New Orleans.

0:29:38.640 --> 0:29:42.160
<v Speaker 1>But when you see what Simeon did uh And I

0:29:42.200 --> 0:29:46.440
<v Speaker 1>was comparing it to Rush Simeon, but Simmeon is a veteran.

0:29:46.480 --> 0:29:48.200
<v Speaker 1>He's more of a veteran. I think that's kind of

0:29:48.240 --> 0:29:52.040
<v Speaker 1>why at least he's played before, and that's why I

0:29:52.080 --> 0:29:55.000
<v Speaker 1>think Russia's game was a little bit more exciting and

0:29:55.000 --> 0:29:57.200
<v Speaker 1>and and it had a little bit more impact. You know.

0:29:57.360 --> 0:30:00.000
<v Speaker 1>It goes back to what Parcels used to talk about

0:30:00.000 --> 0:30:04.280
<v Speaker 1>out with quarterbacks coming into the league, that young quarterbacks

0:30:04.320 --> 0:30:06.840
<v Speaker 1>you can lose them if if you get if they

0:30:06.840 --> 0:30:10.800
<v Speaker 1>get thrown into the fire too early. I mean, you

0:30:10.800 --> 0:30:14.760
<v Speaker 1>think about so many quarterbacks, including from out Yeah, but

0:30:15.120 --> 0:30:17.280
<v Speaker 1>and you think, but you think of so many quarterbacks

0:30:17.280 --> 0:30:20.280
<v Speaker 1>like Romo who sits for three years and then finally

0:30:20.320 --> 0:30:26.280
<v Speaker 1>gets an opportunity. Well, credit Cooper Rush for even having

0:30:26.320 --> 0:30:29.800
<v Speaker 1>not been had an opportunity to play in any games.

0:30:29.840 --> 0:30:33.120
<v Speaker 1>Just he's showing the coaches in practice, behind the scenes

0:30:33.120 --> 0:30:35.760
<v Speaker 1>and meetings and stuff that he's got it. Okay, he's

0:30:35.760 --> 0:30:39.440
<v Speaker 1>got it upstairs and to the point that they trust

0:30:39.520 --> 0:30:41.640
<v Speaker 1>him to be the backup quarter But he was very

0:30:41.760 --> 0:30:46.200
<v Speaker 1>underwhelming right to everyone right practice. It wasn't until he

0:30:46.200 --> 0:30:48.440
<v Speaker 1>gets in the games where you're like okay, right, Yeah,

0:30:48.480 --> 0:30:51.240
<v Speaker 1>so there's a cerebral quality about him that they like.

0:30:51.440 --> 0:30:54.320
<v Speaker 1>I guess, well, that's how he won the job as

0:30:54.360 --> 0:30:58.040
<v Speaker 1>the backup in twenty eighteen. He he was better in

0:30:58.080 --> 0:31:02.320
<v Speaker 1>the games, not practice in the games. Yeah, so you

0:31:02.440 --> 0:31:05.880
<v Speaker 1>mentioned the sack that he sack fumbled. I went back

0:31:05.920 --> 0:31:10.520
<v Speaker 1>and looked at it. They screwed up the whole blocking scheme.

0:31:10.680 --> 0:31:14.840
<v Speaker 1>They had three guys to the left blocking one guy

0:31:15.240 --> 0:31:19.040
<v Speaker 1>and they blitzed off the right, and I just thought

0:31:19.080 --> 0:31:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Polo should have just Howard saw the linebacker in the

0:31:22.800 --> 0:31:26.200
<v Speaker 1>middle and he had sucked in froze there where he

0:31:26.240 --> 0:31:28.880
<v Speaker 1>should have been over there. And that the guy up

0:31:28.880 --> 0:31:34.640
<v Speaker 1>the middle. And guess who got the sack, Xavier Woods

0:31:34.640 --> 0:31:39.800
<v Speaker 1>either way had an interception. I told you, don't go

0:31:39.800 --> 0:31:43.320
<v Speaker 1>to sleep on that guy. He got wronged here, he

0:31:43.440 --> 0:31:46.720
<v Speaker 1>got played in the wrong spot. That he should have

0:31:46.760 --> 0:31:50.840
<v Speaker 1>been a free safety, not playing linebacker in a nickel.

0:31:51.920 --> 0:31:55.000
<v Speaker 1>So that would be the just another Mike Nolan. Yes,

0:31:56.240 --> 0:31:58.400
<v Speaker 1>I'll let you say that, and I'll tell you what.

0:31:58.480 --> 0:32:05.080
<v Speaker 1>And here was another thing that that happened. Um when

0:32:06.160 --> 0:32:10.400
<v Speaker 1>Digs went out and they brought josephin, and they also

0:32:10.480 --> 0:32:15.000
<v Speaker 1>had Parsons off the field, right, they called time out.

0:32:16.320 --> 0:32:20.600
<v Speaker 1>They were gas. No, they called time out to get

0:32:20.640 --> 0:32:23.600
<v Speaker 1>those guys back on the field because they didn't want

0:32:23.720 --> 0:32:27.000
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys. Yes, at the end of the game, I understand, yes,

0:32:27.120 --> 0:32:31.920
<v Speaker 1>because it was it was third and eleven and oh no,

0:32:32.040 --> 0:32:34.680
<v Speaker 1>that's the Cowboys deal. That's when they came up and

0:32:34.720 --> 0:32:36.880
<v Speaker 1>made the play to keep the wide receiver from going

0:32:36.880 --> 0:32:40.160
<v Speaker 1>out of bounds. Right yeah, right, and it's like I

0:32:40.240 --> 0:32:42.440
<v Speaker 1>got kicked in the foot. He got kicked in that ankle.

0:32:42.480 --> 0:32:46.360
<v Speaker 1>It's like, let's get him off the field, right, yeah

0:32:46.400 --> 0:32:48.560
<v Speaker 1>he got And somebody said he sprained his ankle, but no,

0:32:48.640 --> 0:32:50.600
<v Speaker 1>he got. They showed it. He got kicked because like

0:32:50.640 --> 0:32:54.280
<v Speaker 1>he got Laate whipped, not not on purpose, but uh

0:32:54.320 --> 0:32:59.080
<v Speaker 1>so it was it was the it was second and fifteen.

0:32:59.240 --> 0:33:03.719
<v Speaker 1>They through six yards and then third and nine, and

0:33:03.760 --> 0:33:06.000
<v Speaker 1>that's when he called time out. Get him back on

0:33:06.600 --> 0:33:09.920
<v Speaker 1>no mistakes, Yeah, no hiccups. It's like, okay, yeah, you

0:33:10.000 --> 0:33:12.520
<v Speaker 1>got pain in your ankle, get out there, Parsons. You

0:33:12.920 --> 0:33:20.200
<v Speaker 1>can't have it because I bet he played sixty four

0:33:20.320 --> 0:33:23.080
<v Speaker 1>snaps ninety seven percent of the snaps he was out

0:33:23.080 --> 0:33:26.680
<v Speaker 1>there for. And if anybody else gonna question him playing

0:33:26.760 --> 0:33:34.600
<v Speaker 1>linebacker shot out the door. Yeah, unbelievable. I enjoyed. I

0:33:34.680 --> 0:33:37.040
<v Speaker 1>enjoyed that game so much. I was on my treadmill,

0:33:37.080 --> 0:33:40.080
<v Speaker 1>so I was very calm as I was watching the game.

0:33:40.120 --> 0:33:42.400
<v Speaker 1>But if I would have been with my relatives they

0:33:42.440 --> 0:33:44.440
<v Speaker 1>all watched it together, I would have been going crazy.

0:33:44.760 --> 0:33:47.680
<v Speaker 1>And I'm so glad I did not go with them.

0:33:47.960 --> 0:33:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I had to stay and just be calm. I had

0:33:49.800 --> 0:33:52.320
<v Speaker 1>to be calm because that's why I knew this is

0:33:52.320 --> 0:33:55.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna be. Just when I'm hearing everybody's in different rooms

0:33:55.080 --> 0:33:58.680
<v Speaker 1>watching the game, I just go into the library, pr

0:33:58.760 --> 0:34:02.680
<v Speaker 1>library by myself, turning on the big screen, and uh,

0:34:03.360 --> 0:34:05.320
<v Speaker 1>it's the way to do it. Well, here's one more

0:34:05.360 --> 0:34:09.120
<v Speaker 1>thing on Cooper Rush. He was playing for his job

0:34:09.719 --> 0:34:12.960
<v Speaker 1>last night. Oh no, you're exactly right. The timing of

0:34:12.960 --> 0:34:16.879
<v Speaker 1>this with the trade deadline thirty six hours was speculating

0:34:16.920 --> 0:34:19.520
<v Speaker 1>a last week, right, Yeah, he was who's out? There

0:34:19.600 --> 0:34:23.879
<v Speaker 1>was not on the game up? There was not. There

0:34:24.000 --> 0:34:29.080
<v Speaker 1>was not only the pressure of winning a sixth straight

0:34:29.120 --> 0:34:31.920
<v Speaker 1>game for this team and not screwing that up, but

0:34:31.960 --> 0:34:35.359
<v Speaker 1>it screwing up his career. I mean, I mean if

0:34:35.400 --> 0:34:39.319
<v Speaker 1>he if he uh you know, throws three picks and

0:34:39.400 --> 0:34:42.200
<v Speaker 1>they get beat by three touchdowns. They are on the

0:34:42.200 --> 0:34:45.279
<v Speaker 1>phone during the game to another team, did you see

0:34:45.280 --> 0:34:49.280
<v Speaker 1>what happened? Whendn't they mentioned that on television? They started

0:34:49.320 --> 0:34:53.960
<v Speaker 1>talking about the trade deadline and and you know, and

0:34:54.360 --> 0:34:57.160
<v Speaker 1>you got to look at Chicago or something, and they

0:34:57.440 --> 0:35:01.040
<v Speaker 1>flash to the owner's box and Jerry was pointing like this,

0:35:01.560 --> 0:35:05.400
<v Speaker 1>like and they go, now, he's not doing that listening

0:35:05.400 --> 0:35:09.239
<v Speaker 1>to us, right, But at that time he was pointing like, yeah,

0:35:09.320 --> 0:35:14.480
<v Speaker 1>they know what they're talking about. It was hilarious. Have

0:35:14.920 --> 0:35:20.120
<v Speaker 1>we found out that I consider this the Cowboys are

0:35:20.400 --> 0:35:22.759
<v Speaker 1>We always worry about the test that the Cowboys are

0:35:22.800 --> 0:35:27.080
<v Speaker 1>facing everywhere they go, the way that they leave a

0:35:27.200 --> 0:35:29.960
<v Speaker 1>team after they whipped their butts. I think we are

0:35:30.000 --> 0:35:32.960
<v Speaker 1>the test, you know when we come to town, you

0:35:33.000 --> 0:35:38.680
<v Speaker 1>know now you need to take you know, you are

0:35:38.840 --> 0:35:42.000
<v Speaker 1>exact because Carolina came in. Oh well, no, we're not

0:35:42.120 --> 0:35:45.680
<v Speaker 1>that good, even justin Herbert, oh man, maybe I'm not

0:35:45.719 --> 0:35:49.040
<v Speaker 1>as good as everyone's saying. I am. Everyone that we meet.

0:35:49.280 --> 0:35:52.239
<v Speaker 1>They have a come to Jesus meeting. After that, the

0:35:53.640 --> 0:35:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Patriots seem to be playing better, you know, last two

0:35:56.520 --> 0:35:59.239
<v Speaker 1>weeks because we came in and showed them what they

0:35:59.320 --> 0:36:03.840
<v Speaker 1>have to work on for everyone that we played Carolina

0:36:03.960 --> 0:36:07.320
<v Speaker 1>was three and ozer. They finally won a game. Funday

0:36:07.400 --> 0:36:10.360
<v Speaker 1>sent right before the New England game, I wrote, Okay,

0:36:10.400 --> 0:36:12.799
<v Speaker 1>this is the test, just what you were saying for

0:36:12.880 --> 0:36:16.080
<v Speaker 1>this offense. They got to go up against Belichick's defense.

0:36:16.160 --> 0:36:19.600
<v Speaker 1>Right passed with flying colors. And I said, okay this one.

0:36:20.160 --> 0:36:24.800
<v Speaker 1>Now the defense is up because not only if Dak plays,

0:36:24.920 --> 0:36:27.400
<v Speaker 1>he may not be one hundred percent. And if he doesn't,

0:36:27.440 --> 0:36:30.560
<v Speaker 1>you're playing with a backup quarterback. You can't expect to

0:36:30.600 --> 0:36:33.920
<v Speaker 1>score thirty four points. Defense. This is your test. You

0:36:33.960 --> 0:36:37.560
<v Speaker 1>got to step up against the fifth ranked offense in

0:36:37.600 --> 0:36:42.880
<v Speaker 1>the National Football League. Oh, Kirk Cousins, Jefferson, Theelan, the

0:36:42.920 --> 0:36:46.719
<v Speaker 1>whole bit, right cook. They passed with flying colors, So

0:36:47.000 --> 0:36:49.759
<v Speaker 1>you're right. Next time I write my column, this is

0:36:49.760 --> 0:36:53.400
<v Speaker 1>the test for Denver. Let's see. Let's see what you got. Yeah,

0:36:53.400 --> 0:36:55.880
<v Speaker 1>and by the way, the Cowboys only lost to the

0:36:55.920 --> 0:37:00.640
<v Speaker 1>Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Who has a better record. Now, yeah,

0:37:00.680 --> 0:37:10.080

0:39:52.239 --> 0:39:58.240
<v Speaker 1>did answer your questioned. Kelvin Joseph had two defensive snaps

0:39:58.239 --> 0:40:03.520
<v Speaker 1>in nineteen special teams snap. Okay, good, all right? What else?

0:40:03.520 --> 0:40:06.000
<v Speaker 1>You got a near on your legal pad? There? Oh?

0:40:06.120 --> 0:40:13.760
<v Speaker 1>I got a lot um. They also uh laal Collowins.

0:40:13.840 --> 0:40:18.040
<v Speaker 1>That was his We mentioned that his first game and

0:40:18.880 --> 0:40:22.640
<v Speaker 1>that was the fewest snaps. Kean O'Neill had twenty three

0:40:22.680 --> 0:40:26.359
<v Speaker 1>snaps thirty five percent. But that was because they went

0:40:26.520 --> 0:40:30.040
<v Speaker 1>a lot of two tight end and used a fullback.

0:40:30.160 --> 0:40:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Imagine that old school. And they did cam yeah, and

0:40:35.719 --> 0:40:39.400
<v Speaker 1>had used a lot of two running back formations, and

0:40:39.560 --> 0:40:42.880
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys did a decent job against the run. I

0:40:42.880 --> 0:40:46.120
<v Speaker 1>don't think we talked about that average went down. I mean,

0:40:46.239 --> 0:40:48.600
<v Speaker 1>I know they ended up with one hundred and one

0:40:48.680 --> 0:40:51.239
<v Speaker 1>yards rushing, but it was only four point two and

0:40:51.719 --> 0:40:55.319
<v Speaker 1>they held Delvin Cook to seventy eight yards rushing, which

0:40:55.360 --> 0:40:58.200
<v Speaker 1>is much better than the last few times they played him.

0:40:58.560 --> 0:41:01.880
<v Speaker 1>So when you looked at us, I don't know if

0:41:01.920 --> 0:41:04.360
<v Speaker 1>it was the play calling or what. And I know

0:41:04.400 --> 0:41:07.120
<v Speaker 1>our defense was really playing well, but there were moments

0:41:07.360 --> 0:41:10.240
<v Speaker 1>when he just seemed to have brain fleas. Right, yeah,

0:41:10.360 --> 0:41:14.120
<v Speaker 1>he's rolling out, he's you know, we're covering these guys

0:41:14.160 --> 0:41:16.759
<v Speaker 1>up pretty well, but there are certain decisions you have

0:41:16.840 --> 0:41:19.080
<v Speaker 1>to make even when your guys are covered, and he

0:41:19.080 --> 0:41:21.640
<v Speaker 1>always seemed to make the wrong one. Are you talking

0:41:21.760 --> 0:41:25.520
<v Speaker 1>last night or in his career? Actually I'm the guy.

0:41:25.719 --> 0:41:27.600
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm only guy that was like, hey man,

0:41:27.680 --> 0:41:30.319
<v Speaker 1>kirk Cousins playing pretty well, which was which he was.

0:41:30.440 --> 0:41:32.839
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he wasn't bawled out well. And I'll I'll

0:41:32.880 --> 0:41:35.239
<v Speaker 1>say this, when he came out of college, I was

0:41:35.400 --> 0:41:37.920
<v Speaker 1>all on kirk Cousins. I thought it was and I

0:41:37.920 --> 0:41:40.960
<v Speaker 1>thought it was a shrewd move by Washington to go

0:41:41.000 --> 0:41:43.480
<v Speaker 1>ahead even though they took RG three at the top

0:41:43.520 --> 0:41:45.920
<v Speaker 1>of the draft, to take him in the fourth round. Whatever.

0:41:46.200 --> 0:41:48.640
<v Speaker 1>I thought that he had a chance to do something

0:41:48.680 --> 0:41:51.520
<v Speaker 1>in this league. So I'm not one of those Kirk

0:41:51.520 --> 0:41:56.000
<v Speaker 1>Cousins naysayers. Yeah, exactly, and uh, but you're right. I

0:41:56.040 --> 0:42:00.960
<v Speaker 1>mean there are just times where um, he lived overwhelmed

0:42:01.200 --> 0:42:04.520
<v Speaker 1>mentally and physically. Well, they got after him, yes they did. Um.

0:42:04.560 --> 0:42:11.240
<v Speaker 1>They ended up with nine quarterback hurries um had six

0:42:12.000 --> 0:42:16.400
<v Speaker 1>six tackles for losses. Um. Hey, and by the way,

0:42:16.680 --> 0:42:20.920
<v Speaker 1>Jordan Lewis that tackle he made? Saw that and he

0:42:21.040 --> 0:42:25.200
<v Speaker 1>ended up third on the team. Uh oh no, tight, No,

0:42:25.360 --> 0:42:28.080
<v Speaker 1>third on the team with five tackles, tied with Anthony

0:42:28.120 --> 0:42:32.640
<v Speaker 1>Brown for third. So yeah, let's give Anthony Brown another

0:42:32.640 --> 0:42:37.279
<v Speaker 1>shout about that. This guy's bawling man. He passed breakups

0:42:36.640 --> 0:42:40.000
<v Speaker 1>with breakups. I mean, he just looks good. He looks

0:42:40.000 --> 0:42:43.560
<v Speaker 1>he looks totally different from last year. Uh. And I

0:42:43.680 --> 0:42:46.719
<v Speaker 1>like how sometimes he you know, plays a little bit conservative,

0:42:46.960 --> 0:42:50.359
<v Speaker 1>but when it's time, he's making the plays that needs

0:42:50.360 --> 0:42:53.000
<v Speaker 1>to be made, tied to coverage. And see, that's just

0:42:53.160 --> 0:42:56.319
<v Speaker 1>having the pulse of the game. You know, you're part

0:42:56.360 --> 0:42:58.920
<v Speaker 1>of the pulse of the game. You know you understand

0:42:58.960 --> 0:43:01.880
<v Speaker 1>that this moment is big than the first and ten, No,

0:43:02.080 --> 0:43:04.440
<v Speaker 1>this third down and eight, This is what I have

0:43:04.520 --> 0:43:06.520
<v Speaker 1>to make the play. I gotta make up my mind

0:43:06.560 --> 0:43:08.719
<v Speaker 1>to do that. And for him to have that kind

0:43:08.760 --> 0:43:12.520
<v Speaker 1>of ability right now, that kind of confidence, that's that's

0:43:12.960 --> 0:43:15.040
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't bolde well for the rest of the NFL.

0:43:15.239 --> 0:43:17.799
<v Speaker 1>Because you've got Digs on one side and you have

0:43:17.960 --> 0:43:21.279
<v Speaker 1>a confident Brown on the other side. Along with the

0:43:21.320 --> 0:43:24.200
<v Speaker 1>restless defense you can feed so well off of it.

0:43:24.280 --> 0:43:26.040
<v Speaker 1>You want to pick on the other side, go ahead,

0:43:26.080 --> 0:43:29.400
<v Speaker 1>and is waiting for you too over there? Absolutely, And

0:43:29.440 --> 0:43:31.719
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what. This was the second game back

0:43:31.760 --> 0:43:36.080
<v Speaker 1>for Donovan Wilson, and he laid some wood out there. Wow,

0:43:37.200 --> 0:43:40.839
<v Speaker 1>that was a couple of sidelines. One time I thought

0:43:40.840 --> 0:43:43.000
<v Speaker 1>he was gonna get a flagged just because he hit

0:43:43.040 --> 0:43:46.719
<v Speaker 1>it so hard. There was one he um, it's like

0:43:46.840 --> 0:43:49.719
<v Speaker 1>pile drive somebody, and I thought that's gotta be Parsons.

0:43:49.760 --> 0:43:53.919
<v Speaker 1>And then I say, no, Wilson got out of them. Yeah,

0:43:54.920 --> 0:43:57.800
<v Speaker 1>he's been you know, he wants some more playing time. Well,

0:43:57.920 --> 0:43:59.799
<v Speaker 1>he showed at the end of last year. I mean,

0:44:00.000 --> 0:44:02.120
<v Speaker 1>and that's one of the things that they were really

0:44:02.680 --> 0:44:05.359
<v Speaker 1>really like fact against the Vikings. Do you even call

0:44:05.560 --> 0:44:08.200
<v Speaker 1>a guy coming across the middle and he laid him

0:44:08.280 --> 0:44:11.600
<v Speaker 1>out and coughed up that ball that was last year.

0:44:13.680 --> 0:44:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Um what else you got over there? Well, it just

0:44:17.280 --> 0:44:22.640
<v Speaker 1>dawned on me when we were talking about him hooker. Okay,

0:44:21.960 --> 0:44:28.000
<v Speaker 1>he played, I just don't remember, Yes, I don't remember anything. Yeah, well,

0:44:28.040 --> 0:44:29.879
<v Speaker 1>he was always in position. They didn't have a chance

0:44:29.880 --> 0:44:32.919
<v Speaker 1>to made too many plays. I mean, he was there,

0:44:33.000 --> 0:44:37.480
<v Speaker 1>but somebody else made the play first. Yeah, and and

0:44:37.680 --> 0:44:42.439
<v Speaker 1>I might have played himself into an inactive next week

0:44:43.640 --> 0:44:48.120
<v Speaker 1>offside and then the coach is waiting on you. Yeah,

0:44:48.239 --> 0:44:52.600
<v Speaker 1>and it prolonged the drive, right, he boked out right,

0:44:53.560 --> 0:44:56.880
<v Speaker 1>They barked at him. He barked at him. Yeah, yeah,

0:44:57.880 --> 0:45:01.160
<v Speaker 1>and they caught it too, right, miss it. I was

0:45:01.200 --> 0:45:03.120
<v Speaker 1>surprised I didn't read his lip, like, hey, you just

0:45:03.239 --> 0:45:05.600
<v Speaker 1>as luck he jumps off sides on fourth and five.

0:45:05.640 --> 0:45:08.120
<v Speaker 1>It can't be fourth and six, right, and you know

0:45:08.200 --> 0:45:11.440
<v Speaker 1>what fourth and five and a half. You know. The

0:45:11.520 --> 0:45:13.719
<v Speaker 1>weird thing about that is when they when they had

0:45:13.719 --> 0:45:16.879
<v Speaker 1>the ball marked, it was almost to the I don't

0:45:16.880 --> 0:45:20.080
<v Speaker 1>know whatever light the yard line. It was one opposite

0:45:20.080 --> 0:45:23.120
<v Speaker 1>side one of the fives, right, well, it was short

0:45:23.160 --> 0:45:25.279
<v Speaker 1>of the five. And then when they marked it it

0:45:25.360 --> 0:45:27.799
<v Speaker 1>was on the line five yards more and it's like,

0:45:27.800 --> 0:45:29.799
<v Speaker 1>how'd they pick up a half a yard? And that's

0:45:29.840 --> 0:45:32.440
<v Speaker 1>what I was saying, because Chris Collins was brought that up.

0:45:32.520 --> 0:45:34.640
<v Speaker 1>He's like, well, I think they'll be okay because it's

0:45:35.080 --> 0:45:37.640
<v Speaker 1>half and yeah, and they ended up. How does that

0:45:37.719 --> 0:45:41.200
<v Speaker 1>have for the change? It was putative because you can't

0:45:41.200 --> 0:45:45.840
<v Speaker 1>do that. Shame on you, officials. Yeah, yeah, you deserve that.

0:45:45.960 --> 0:45:47.799
<v Speaker 1>We want this to play out. Let's see what your

0:45:47.840 --> 0:45:49.800
<v Speaker 1>coach says to you. How is your career going to

0:45:49.840 --> 0:45:54.520
<v Speaker 1>go from this moment? And and you know, those personal

0:45:54.600 --> 0:45:57.400
<v Speaker 1>fouls were huge on that drive for the for the

0:45:57.440 --> 0:45:59.640
<v Speaker 1>field goal, But it's going to be even bigger on

0:45:59.719 --> 0:46:03.879
<v Speaker 1>two day when they get fined. Randy Gregory probably gonna

0:46:03.920 --> 0:46:07.960
<v Speaker 1>lose about thirty forty thousands referees get fined. No, does

0:46:08.040 --> 0:46:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Harrison Smith get fined for choking CD Lamb on like

0:46:11.160 --> 0:46:13.839
<v Speaker 1>one tech, Yeah, it was going on how did that?

0:46:14.360 --> 0:46:16.600
<v Speaker 1>And another thing? It was kind of like we were

0:46:16.640 --> 0:46:20.120
<v Speaker 1>westing right because he just like, wouldn't that? I mean,

0:46:20.120 --> 0:46:24.600
<v Speaker 1>he just like, yeah, that's yeah. When that happened, I said,

0:46:25.239 --> 0:46:28.239
<v Speaker 1>someone needs to review that at the league office. That's

0:46:28.280 --> 0:46:31.480
<v Speaker 1>like it was almost as bad as in the SEC's

0:46:31.560 --> 0:46:34.399
<v Speaker 1>hold when he had the guy strangled but around the neck, right,

0:46:34.480 --> 0:46:37.560
<v Speaker 1>I think that's the beat kind of did the same thing,

0:46:37.719 --> 0:46:39.919
<v Speaker 1>just grab a round. I didn't know that was a thing.

0:46:39.920 --> 0:46:42.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I've everything. CD had to be thinking,

0:46:42.760 --> 0:46:47.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting all these fines for this guy. Better get

0:46:47.360 --> 0:46:50.839
<v Speaker 1>fined for trying to choke me. I mean, he was like,

0:46:51.280 --> 0:46:55.600
<v Speaker 1>he's trying to make him taller. What's going on? Well,

0:46:55.600 --> 0:46:57.560
<v Speaker 1>they were laying off at him. He had a lot

0:46:57.600 --> 0:47:01.239
<v Speaker 1>of room to run his routes. They tell dude, they

0:47:01.280 --> 0:47:04.080
<v Speaker 1>were so wide open, those Cooper Cup passes. I'm sorry,

0:47:04.120 --> 0:47:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Cooper Cup, those Cooper Rest passes. Like I said, the

0:47:07.320 --> 0:47:10.880
<v Speaker 1>drama was just in the flight of the ball. And

0:47:11.120 --> 0:47:14.040
<v Speaker 1>that's why CD dropped one. Well, he expected it to

0:47:14.080 --> 0:47:16.240
<v Speaker 1>be there quicker and they thought they and they thought

0:47:16.280 --> 0:47:19.640
<v Speaker 1>that he heard footsteps. Now that guy was too far away.

0:47:19.760 --> 0:47:24.399
<v Speaker 1>Now he was running. He was gonna he was gonna

0:47:24.480 --> 0:47:26.680
<v Speaker 1>jop that guy. There was no way he get it.

0:47:27.239 --> 0:47:29.319
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, they were wide open guys. I mean they

0:47:29.360 --> 0:47:33.640
<v Speaker 1>made their cornerbacks look so average. They were wide open

0:47:33.840 --> 0:47:36.360
<v Speaker 1>all the time. So that's why Cooper was like, I

0:47:36.360 --> 0:47:38.759
<v Speaker 1>don't have to drill this in there. I could just

0:47:39.000 --> 0:47:41.919
<v Speaker 1>float it out there they were when they caught the ball,

0:47:41.960 --> 0:47:44.200
<v Speaker 1>they were still five yards between them and the receiver,

0:47:44.239 --> 0:47:46.600
<v Speaker 1>and we should point out they were down Patrick Peterson.

0:47:47.480 --> 0:47:51.080
<v Speaker 1>That's that's no excuse. That's no excuse, because both sides

0:47:51.120 --> 0:47:54.560
<v Speaker 1>were getting toasted, I mean, all day long, all night. Right,

0:47:54.680 --> 0:47:59.920
<v Speaker 1>So six and one Denver comes in next in Atlanta,

0:48:00.520 --> 0:48:03.799
<v Speaker 1>seventy one eight one at Kansas City City. We get

0:48:03.800 --> 0:48:06.680
<v Speaker 1>to scout them tonight they play the Giants. That's right.

0:48:07.200 --> 0:48:09.640
<v Speaker 1>We got to scout and then the Raiders, and then

0:48:09.680 --> 0:48:12.799
<v Speaker 1>the Saints got to scout the Saints the tests. Just

0:48:13.000 --> 0:48:16.359
<v Speaker 1>remember that when we go are we gonna see how

0:48:16.400 --> 0:48:19.040
<v Speaker 1>good Casey is, not how good the Cowboys are. We're

0:48:19.040 --> 0:48:20.839
<v Speaker 1>gonna see how good Casey is when we go into

0:48:20.880 --> 0:48:23.399
<v Speaker 1>Kansas City. All right, did they get back to five

0:48:23.520 --> 0:48:27.960
<v Speaker 1>hundred yet? Nope, they're three and four. They're not that five.

0:48:28.040 --> 0:48:32.520
<v Speaker 1>It's by eleven o'clock tonight. You're talking about Kansas City. Yeah,

0:48:32.920 --> 0:48:35.520
<v Speaker 1>well they're playing tonight, you're playing, okay, so if they win,

0:48:35.600 --> 0:48:37.880
<v Speaker 1>they get to five hun you're playing the Giants. Yeah,

0:48:38.360 --> 0:48:46.359
<v Speaker 1>eleven o'clock tonight, eleven o'clock. Oh sile those Giants. That's

0:48:46.360 --> 0:48:49.120
<v Speaker 1>exactly right. I was saying going into yesterday's game that

0:48:49.200 --> 0:48:53.359
<v Speaker 1>you better be Cowboys, better be careful because these other

0:48:53.400 --> 0:48:55.400
<v Speaker 1>teams Eagle, what the Eagles do Yet now it is

0:48:55.440 --> 0:49:02.399
<v Speaker 1>a Lion. They score four, he said, but they got

0:49:02.440 --> 0:49:05.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, the answered it before I got it out

0:49:05.280 --> 0:49:07.760
<v Speaker 1>of my conference. But I hate watching the press conference

0:49:07.840 --> 0:49:10.920
<v Speaker 1>the Lions. Yes, Campbell, Oh my goodness, is so hard guy.

0:49:11.000 --> 0:49:15.040
<v Speaker 1>It was cringing with me. He had some weird comment

0:49:16.400 --> 0:49:18.319
<v Speaker 1>I was in the paper. I forgot. It was just

0:49:18.640 --> 0:49:20.800
<v Speaker 1>he used to term I hadn't heard when you're getting

0:49:20.800 --> 0:49:23.160
<v Speaker 1>your butt kicks like that. It's just you don't sleep

0:49:23.160 --> 0:49:28.440
<v Speaker 1>well and you can go winless or one in sixteen whatever,

0:49:28.840 --> 0:49:32.160
<v Speaker 1>but you can't go forty four to six one in sixteen.

0:49:32.360 --> 0:49:35.799
<v Speaker 1>Right in seventeen. They may need to be closer games. Yeah,

0:49:35.880 --> 0:49:38.560
<v Speaker 1>you need to be a little closer. Texans maybe needed

0:49:38.719 --> 0:49:41.160
<v Speaker 1>and that's why the Texans scored. I've been through that.

0:49:41.239 --> 0:49:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Texans were down thirty eight to nothing going the fourth

0:49:43.719 --> 0:49:47.600
<v Speaker 1>quarter and they scored twenty two points. You know, they

0:49:47.600 --> 0:49:52.640
<v Speaker 1>put Rex Burke head in the game. What do you mean? Seriously,

0:49:52.680 --> 0:49:55.000
<v Speaker 1>he led them to twenty two points in the fourth quarter,

0:49:55.440 --> 0:49:59.440
<v Speaker 1>running the ball, running, catching they throw it. He did

0:49:59.480 --> 0:50:03.359
<v Speaker 1>throw it, He actually did. He was incomplete anyway. All right,

0:50:03.360 --> 0:50:06.560
<v Speaker 1>we're out of time. That's Bill's guy. I know. That's

0:50:06.600 --> 0:50:10.320
<v Speaker 1>why I'm quiet over here. And there is a trade

0:50:10.320 --> 0:50:16.640
<v Speaker 1>deadline coming up tomorrow and we don't need that. I

0:50:16.640 --> 0:50:21.480
<v Speaker 1>didn't say that. I want to be a backup quarterback here. No,

0:50:21.880 --> 0:50:24.840
<v Speaker 1>but wait here. Here are the questions. Nick had the

0:50:24.880 --> 0:50:27.160
<v Speaker 1>answer this morning on one oh five three the Fan.

0:50:27.520 --> 0:50:31.600
<v Speaker 1>So would you trade Lell Collins? No way? Would you

0:50:31.640 --> 0:50:38.360
<v Speaker 1>trade Tony Pollard? What those were the questions? He got asked, Wow, Yeah,

0:50:38.520 --> 0:50:41.719
<v Speaker 1>this trade deadline needs to pass. Let it go, and

0:50:41.840 --> 0:50:45.040
<v Speaker 1>this two shell pass. That's what that was Cooper's words

0:50:45.120 --> 0:50:48.400
<v Speaker 1>last night. Let's just let the trade deadline pass. I'm here, guys,
