Fellas, they are telling us 26 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: there's nothing to be concerned about. Since right tackle l 27 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: Collins left practice with a minor neck injury and a 28 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: minor arm injury last year, we were told, hey, it's 29 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: gonna be okay, he'll be back. He never played a 30 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: snap last year, So Fellas, your concern level for Collins 31 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: is what? Church? All right, Well, you know, I'm a 32 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 1: little nervous because anything anytime you're dealing with the neat 33 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: type of issue, that's never nothing to play around with. 34 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: But you know, we do have a great training staff here, 35 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: so you know, and they say there's nothing to worry about, 36 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 1: then then I'm gonna go ahead and be with them 37 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: and say there's nothing to worry about. Hopefully it was 38 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 1: just one of those stingers, you know. McCray like how 39 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: sometimes you know you're banging a little bit in the trenches, 40 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: sometimes your neck go the wrong way and he kind 41 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: of sends those shock nerves through your through your arm, 42 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: and down your legs. So hopefully he's just dealing with 43 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: a slight stinger. You know, nothing that you know concerns 44 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: going forward. I would still like to see him play 45 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 1: in this Houston game. I don't know if that's going 46 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: to happen or not, but I would still like to 47 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: see him play in that game, seeing as though he 48 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: didn't play a whole snap last year, and so we 49 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: gotta knock that rust off. I gotta see him in there. 50 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: He was in the first couple of preseason games. Um, 51 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: so you know, I don't think it's nothing crazy to 52 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: worry about. But like I said earlier, that neck man 53 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: that that's never nothing to play with. I mean, vanderash 54 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: knows it, knows it better than anybody. There's never nothing 55 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: to play with. So I'm gonna go ahead and put 56 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: my trust in Jim Mayer, Bretton and boards at the 57 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: training staff and say there's nothing to worry about, and 58 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: hopefully we see him in Houston. I just got a 59 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: quick question for you, bro so, so, so, what was 60 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: wrong with Tyrant last year? Why did he miss so 61 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: many games? I guess that was that neck right. But 62 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: in answer this question for me, what do you know 63 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: about stinkers? Right? You don't just have one. Yeah, once 64 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: you get one, it gets you throughout the whole season. 65 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: Every time you get hit that way, you get that 66 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: same film bang and every game play, every snap. Okay, 67 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: number three knew were in church. Who do I say 68 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: we should have drafted? I do this? What's coming mission 69 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: that I said we should have drafted? And the reasons 70 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,839 Speaker 1: why we had left tackle who was going to be out. 71 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: We had a right tackle who had missed the whole 72 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: entire season, didn't play a snap. We don't even made 73 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: it to the season. Yet we're in the same position 74 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: when we were here last year talking about Yeah, hey man, 75 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: they don't worry about it's all good. Let me tell 76 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: you something. We played enough football to note, Like you said, 77 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: neck injuries are real injuries. They should always be a concern. 78 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: There's no there's no time when you can say, hey man, 79 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: this dude has a stinger, he has a neck injury. 80 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: It's not going to bother him for the rest of 81 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: the season. That's one of the things you buckle down 82 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: and you say, all right, this is somethingbody have to 83 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: deal with for the entirety of the season, and hopefully 84 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: it can heal after because you don't get a chance 85 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: to heal during the regular season. So I'm very concerned, 86 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 1: very concerned, and we already been worried about our depth. 87 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: That old line. Anyways, it's true. Who's I mean, you're 88 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: gonna throw Terran Steel or Brandon Knight out there? Man? 89 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: Flashbacks will not let me get me and me and 90 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: you we get together, you know, we get out there 91 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: and kick step a little bit. Yeah, I'm concerned, though, 92 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: new I'm very concerned. I am skeptical, and I think 93 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: based on what we saw last year, any fans out 94 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: there should be skeptical as well. Yes, they're telling us this, 95 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: but as Parcels used to tell tell us all the time, 96 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: all I can go by is what I see. And 97 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: last year we were told things, Hey, this person's gonna 98 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: be all right, this person gonna be okay, this personna 99 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: be that we haven't seen. Um. I was at camp 100 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: when Mike McCarthy's like Yoda should be back in a 101 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: couple of days, when he back with the shoulders trained. 102 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: So and they can say they're being cautious, but I 103 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: at this point in time, I have every right to 104 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: be skeptical, and I think fans should be as well. Yeah, 105 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: I mean, look, even with that injury to Collins, who 106 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: were gonna put out there like that's the That's the 107 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: thing that gets me as nervous as anything is, like 108 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully you know everything is all right, and 109 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: you know, like I said, nothing wrong or there's nothing 110 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: slight about the neck. But who's his backup? Who's gonna 111 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: be that swing tackle? I mean, we got you know, 112 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: the rookie Josh Ball, we got you know, Terrence Steel, 113 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: Brandon Night in there. I don't know if those guys 114 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: are ready, and especially seeing what we saw so far 115 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,559 Speaker 1: in this preseason. They played all right, but it ain't 116 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: like their you know, main stays any't like ain't like 117 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: I'm very comfortable with Dak being there behind them. So 118 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: we gotta make some choices here. I mean, if if, if, if, 119 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 1: if Collins is more hurt than what it seems, we 120 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: might have to go out there and get somebody to 121 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: be that swing tackle, because, like I said, I'm not 122 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: too sure that Terrence Still or Brandon Knight or the 123 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 1: or the young Josh Ball in there can withstand you know, 124 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: a full seventeen stretch seventeen games stretch at that right tackle. 125 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's a demanding position. So we shall see. 126 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: But what makes me the most nervous is his backups. 127 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: I mean that that, I mean what you think about that? 128 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: I listen, It's concerning on multiple levels for me, right, 129 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: because we're worried about the depth at old line already. Right, 130 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 1: we've seen still we see night get out there. We've 131 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: seen what they've been able to do and their lack 132 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: there production. Right, and now you have to worry about 133 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: our offensive coordinator again, right, because every time we have 134 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: one of these injuries to a tackle, we always sit 135 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: here on the show and we say, how are we 136 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: going to help this guy right throughout the game? Are 137 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: we gonna put a tight end out there? Are we 138 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: gonna chip you know, are we gonna run some misdirection 139 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: to food these defensive ends? And every week we come 140 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 1: back and say, why didn't we do it? Right? So 141 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 1: now we have that issue, and then we also have 142 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: the issue of yeah, whatever they say, right, if Collins 143 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: come back, comes back and he plays Week one, we know, 144 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: like I said that, at some point in the season, 145 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: this stinger is gonna come back. So you're going to 146 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: have to be solid with the backup because he's going 147 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: to get some plan time this year. So it's gonna 148 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: be very important for us to find that that backup 149 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: guy who is for sure going to get some some 150 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: serious reps and the and the other team is going 151 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: to be keyed in on him once he gets in 152 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: the game, so he better be ready to go. And 153 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: and me and we were talking about this yesterday. We 154 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: got a long stretch from that bye week to the 155 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,679 Speaker 1: end of the season. It's eleven games. They got eleven 156 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,559 Speaker 1: games straight where it's it's no break. You gotta you know, Sunday, Sunday, 157 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: Sunday's all right in a row. So there's gonna be 158 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: a lot of games out there for these boys. And 159 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: if we're already talking about injuries and we haven't even 160 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: gotten out of the preseason yet, it's a little concerning 161 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: for your boy, A little concerning for your boy. But 162 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: i'mnna put my trust in Britt Brower and Jim and 163 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: Jim Mauer and Britt Brown and the boy to get 164 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: that man bright and getting ready for the bucks. Let 165 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: me tell you something, turn can say all he wants 166 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: to about the trust in the training staff. Ain't nothing 167 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: they can do about a stinker. It's nothing they can 168 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: be the best whatever. Unless you are a magician, those 169 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: things once they come there happened, you probably will still 170 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: get a stinger. We're not even playing the game for 171 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: five years. If you got hit a certain way, you 172 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: would get a stinger from the same position that you 173 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: had ten years ago. There's nothing you can do about it. 174 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: All right, we've forgotten about tying to Techy here. Okay, 175 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: he does the guy they signed to be the swing tackle. 176 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: He's missing time in training camp dealing with the knee. 177 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: But to me, that would be the first guy I 178 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: would look for if something would happen with Collins. Josh 179 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: Ball is not ready, so and so don't even do 180 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: my opinion, put him in the conversation. Also, while I 181 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: was there at training camp, had an opportunity to talk 182 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: to Terrence Steele. He came over and spoke with the media, 183 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: and he says he feels that he's made a knice 184 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: leap because he had a full offseason, because he's had 185 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 1: playing raps last year. So I look at the sky 186 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: and steal and think that, Okay, they've got some good 187 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: options here. And oh, by the way, it's the National 188 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: Football League. I don't care who you are. Anybody who's 189 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: losing a starting tackle in this league, their backups are 190 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: gonna be a big It's gonna be a fall off huge. 191 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: So um, you're just gonna have to deal with it. There. 192 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: So that that's it. And let me tell you something. Okay, 193 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: question for you, because we're talking about the right tackle. 194 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: How is our love tackle performing out there? How when 195 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: you see him in practice? Is he still the guy? 196 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: Is he? Is he? Is he Tyrann Smith of what 197 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: twenty ten like Church said? Is he that guy? Or 198 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: are you seeing him, you know, slip up a little bit, 199 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 1: maybe get beat off the line? Or is he or 200 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: he just fantastic? Is Tyrn Smith still all decade? I 201 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: think he has something to prove. We got to talk 202 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: to him the other night after the Cowboys game. I mean, 203 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: you know, the Cowboys practice with the fans there. First off, 204 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: he looks great. Okay, he looks great, And I said 205 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: to him, how many more Pro Bowls do you think 206 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: you're having in? And you know Tyren doesn't like to 207 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 1: go there. And we also talked about his you know, 208 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 1: his you know, hey, being out last year, if you 209 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 1: thought about you know, where your career is and what 210 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: you've done, he says, he's just going to take a 211 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: game by game and ultimately, to answer your question, Danny 212 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: Tyran Smith is still one of the better left tackles 213 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: in the National Football League and if healthy, I expect 214 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: him to have a Pro Bowl season. So we just 215 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: got to see if they're healthy. But but that that is, 216 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: you know, the life of any left tackle in the 217 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: National Football League. And I'll say this, man, if you 218 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: guys start checking Twitter, you start looking at other teams. 219 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: You go to a place like Cincinnati, they got questions 220 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: about their football team on the offensive line. I can't 221 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: remember who I just saw that was about to sign 222 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: Jason Peters to play left tackle. And I'm like, wow, 223 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: you signed at Jason Peters. I mean, you know, you 224 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: really reach it right there. So so so you know, 225 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: this is an issue across this league. Man. I'm even 226 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: with the the Rams have issues in question marks at 227 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: their offensive line spot. So I think sometimes we looked 228 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: at the Cowboys and that's all we look at and 229 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: you think, oh, man, you know this guy here, this 230 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 1: guy there. Even Connor Williams well it's Carter Williams is 231 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: gonna be good. Connor Williams to be a starter on 232 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: basically twenty other teams in the National Football League, and 233 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 1: they'd love to have him. It's just with the Cowboys, 234 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: you've got this high standard because you got a Hall 235 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: of Famer and that Martin has been to get a 236 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame resume, and you judge him, you judge 237 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: him off that. You judge him off for Nate Newton, 238 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:30,719 Speaker 1: you judge him off for Hilarry All. I mean, there 239 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: has been some excellent guard play with the Cowboys the 240 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: last twenty five years. So you know it's Connor that no. 241 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: But you know what, this dude is a is a 242 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: good starter in the National Football League. And I think 243 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: so many times we can we can kind of forget, 244 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: forget that a lot of teams in this league have issues. 245 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: But the difference between us and those other teams are 246 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: we've paid our two tackles right and left, and we 247 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: went through this last year. Ye right, this is this 248 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: is a consecutive thing that's going on, right. Tyrant has 249 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: been injured in consecutive years going back before last year. 250 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: Layle missed the entire season last year, the entire season. 251 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: We have not made it through training camp and he 252 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: already has another issue. So other teams may be going 253 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: through stuff like that, But these are two guys that 254 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: we've paid. We've found the guys that we want, and 255 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: we can't keep them on the field and healthy for 256 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: us to have our full old line so we can 257 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: get back to moving that line of scrimmage, having Ze 258 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: be productive and producting protecting back back there. Are you 259 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: comfortable well what we have now at the backups for 260 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: the right tackle, left tackle. Are you comfortable with Terrence 261 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: still Be or Terrence Neil Knight the Sky being one 262 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: of those swing tackles man, you know, just based off 263 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: what I've seen from from two of those guys in 264 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: the past. Absolutely not. Um, I think that's fair. I 265 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: think it the Seki. I think he is probably going 266 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: to earn the right to see if he can go 267 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 1: out there and be productive and be that swing swing tackle. Um. 268 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 1: But as of right now, based off what I've seen, Nah, 269 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 1: I'm not kind of like backup quarterback. Yeah, that's true. 270 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: Newly you comfortable with the situation? To me, I'm looking 271 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,559 Speaker 1: at how Mike McCarthy and Kellen Moore and Joe Philbin 272 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 1: handled the situation. Let's say that you don't have Collins 273 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: out there for any time at all, and you got 274 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 1: to go into Secy or you gotta go with Steel, 275 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: then make sure number eighty seven Jeremy sprinkles out there 276 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: as well, helping block. Just help these guys, that's what 277 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 1: you got to do. In the past, they've been unwilling 278 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: to help some of these guys and leave out there 279 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: one on one. Just stop doing that. Make sure that 280 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: the tackle has some help, because you know what, if 281 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: I've just got CD Lamb and Amari Cooper and a route, 282 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: I think I could win and got and got twenty 283 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: one in the back too, I think I could win 284 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: a lot of matchups. And so to me, it's how 285 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 1: you go ahead and utilize these guys. We got to 286 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 1: take a break here. When we come back. I feel 287 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: that Jalen Smith is getting the tea pain treatment from 288 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: Cowboy fans. I do.

I am not here to joke on Jayila. 381 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 1: By the way, have you seen the Netflix special called 382 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: This Is Pop? If you have? Okay, it's very good. 383 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,719 Speaker 1: And there's this episode about Tea Pain and Auto Tune 384 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 1: and T Pain was flying to an award show and 385 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: he's on the plane and the stewardess comes over and says, hey, 386 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: Usher would like to have a work with you. So 387 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: te Paint and Usher friends and t paints like, oh yeah, 388 00:19:58,800 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: let me go over here talk to him in us. 389 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: She's got this concerned look on his face and he 390 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: says over to Tea Paint, hey man, you really left 391 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 1: up music, and it was because te Pain was using 392 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: the auto tune and so many other people were using 393 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: auto tune. So folks like Usher, we're getting mad. He's like, hey, man, 394 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: I'm out here singing using my voice. You guys out here, 395 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: you know, messing up the game got Jennifer Lopez making 396 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: hit album Hit Records with auto tune. So te Pain 397 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: had that song with with Kanye West. Man, Kanye West 398 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: did a whole album on auto tune, but people blame 399 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 1: Tea Paint and they said you're the problem. You're what's wrong, 400 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: And he said, man, I went to a four year 401 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: depression after that conversation with Usher because he was doubting 402 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: himself in his crab and I look at social media. 403 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: Jay Z came out with the yes the whole song, Yeah, yes, 404 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: get but he says, get back to wrapping your tea painting, 405 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,360 Speaker 1: and that's a that's a cold line. So te Pain 406 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 1: talked about how man all this affected him and I 407 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: sit here and I see all this media hate for 408 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,919 Speaker 1: Jalen Smith and he should be the fourth linebacker and 409 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,360 Speaker 1: trade him and cut him. I'm thinking myself, Man, if 410 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,199 Speaker 1: this brother is reading this stuff, he about to have 411 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 1: a tea pain moment where everybody's mad at him, and 412 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: I'm sitting around here and I'm thinking, here's a guy 413 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: that has led the team and tackles the last two 414 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,439 Speaker 1: years he has played. And if anything, the drafting of 415 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons and also the improvements of what we're seeing 416 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 1: from from someone like a Keyan O'Neil, that your linebacker 417 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: room is going to get better. And if lake vanderest 418 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: she's back to where he was last year. Yes, Jalen 419 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 1: is going to be most likely your fourth linebacker. But 420 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: is that a bad thing? Aren't those guys right now 421 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,360 Speaker 1: playing better? Don't they have a potential to give dan 422 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: Quinn more of what he wants. Doesn't make a linebacker 423 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 1: room better? And ain't Jalen's fault that they paid him. 424 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: They ain't throw that money at you. You're gonna go 425 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 1: ahead and take it. But Thang is beating this guy up, 426 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: and I feel like, man, you're treating Jane like tea pain? Man. 427 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: Why dontta treat Jane like tea pain? Yeah? Yeah, I listen. 428 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,919 Speaker 1: I don't to some extent, I don't think it's fair. Right. 429 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: We make fun of him a little bit for the 430 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,919 Speaker 1: advertisements in the swiping and stuff, but that's his swag 431 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: and swag. His swag got him paid. Right, people began 432 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: to love Jaylen Smith. Well we knew about the NFL 433 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 1: is or what have you done for me lately? Lead? 434 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: All right? At first it was a feel good story. 435 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 1: Jaylen Smith's back everything he overcame, and then he had 436 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: a good season. They were like, okay, all that's behind him, 437 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: all right, we don't care about none of that. Can 438 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 1: you play ball now? And then you saw a little 439 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: bit of you know, regression, you know, and we blame 440 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,360 Speaker 1: I blame a lot of that on the past defensive 441 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: coordinator who set these guys back so much. Man, And 442 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: thank god for dan Quinn coming in here and getting 443 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,239 Speaker 1: these guys right, but they set them back right. So 444 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: the expectation now for jay Lens, especially after you get paid, 445 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: it's to be one of the greatest. We want to 446 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: see you, you know, expand on what you did that 447 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: year when we thought we had the best linebacker corps 448 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: in the NFL. And it just hasn't been that way. 449 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 1: But he's still celebrating and doing his advertisements as if 450 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: he had been playing that way last season. I think 451 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 1: that's the issue was like, hey man, stop all the 452 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 1: celebrating and get back to what you were doing that 453 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 1: that allowed you to do those type of celebrations. Make 454 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,239 Speaker 1: those tackles. We want to see you break down and 455 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 1: be able to make open field tackles and run sideline 456 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: of sideline. If you're not doing that, then stop with 457 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: the celebrating. I'm not hating on them. Make your money, man, 458 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: do you but then you got to be open to 459 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: the criticism that comes your way. That is true. And 460 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: you know Spider Man said the best Man or his 461 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,959 Speaker 1: uncle Ben or whatever his name was, with great power 462 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,239 Speaker 1: comes great responsibility. And when you get the bag like that, 463 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: I mean he got sixty five ms. When you get 464 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 1: that bag like that, people are gonna expect great things 465 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: out of you. And he provided that. That first year 466 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 1: he went to the Pro Bowl twenty eighteen, everything was 467 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: on fire. He was doing great returning fumbles for touchdowns, 468 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 1: he was making great splash plays. And then as the 469 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: years went on, it just slowly went down and down 470 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: as far as his production as far as making splash 471 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: plays out there, that being that key defender out there. 472 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: And then now you got a new rookie coming in 473 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: the new the brand new toy that everybody's kind of like, 474 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: oh man, this guy's on fire and he's actually playing 475 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: well too, and he's making these other linebackers seem a 476 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 1: lot slower. But this guy runs a four three. I mean, 477 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: this ain't like it like a regular guy. This dude's 478 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: running the four three, so he's gonna make other guys 479 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: look slow out there. But I think the main thing 480 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: with the fan base about j Jala Smith is when 481 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:16,119 Speaker 1: you don't play up to your price tag, people are 482 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: gonna get on you about that. And it is it 483 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: fair now? Because like Nui said, like Nui said, like 484 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 1: nw he said, he didn't get He didn't he didn't 485 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 1: say you know, they he didn't tell him. He didn't 486 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 1: force him to pay him. You know, he just he 487 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: took the bread. But with that, when taking that bread, 488 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 1: you gotta your play has to Your resume has to 489 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: keep keep getting different each and every year. And he 490 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: hasn't updated his resume. He's still living off of that 491 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl to twenty eighteen seasons. So I get why 492 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 1: the fans are getting on him a little bit. Is 493 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: it kind of harsh? Yes, because it gets personal. You know, 494 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: they take it outside of football. Sometimes, you know, I 495 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 1: could see getting on his play, but when you get 496 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: on everything else about it, you know, that's that's a 497 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 1: little bit too much. But if the guy's not playing 498 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: to his price tag, I mean, you're gonna get You're 499 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: gonna get what you're getting. You know, people are gonna 500 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: get at you. Okay, Church, Church, Church, I'm I'm anna 501 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: interject on this. When you talk about playing to the 502 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,479 Speaker 1: price tag, it's it's not like he set the market 503 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 1: at his position in the National Football League or even 504 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: the highest paid player in Cowboys history. We've seen guys 505 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: who've hit that mark here recently who have not played 506 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: up to the level, and they don't get that same 507 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 1: key and same vitriol from Cowboy fans to Jayalen does 508 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: that's true, you're talking about You told about the Marcus 509 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,959 Speaker 1: Lawrence right who only got he only had like five sacks. 510 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: But if you look at the Pro Football Focus, everybody's 511 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: you know, big grades on here, he's still one of 512 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 1: the highest graded defensive lignment. If you look at Jalen 513 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 1: Smith's Pro Football Focus, what everybody grades on, he's one 514 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 1: of the lowest raded linebackers and all he's saying he's making, 515 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: you know, terrible plays out there. He's not gonna help 516 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 1: the team at all. No, but if you're getting paid 517 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 1: that much, your play has to go batch it. Who 518 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: was the last linebacker to get paid by the Cowboys, 519 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: Because I'm in my mind, I'm thinking Jalen Smiths set 520 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: the Cowboys market for linebackers, all right? They let they 521 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: let Anthony Hitchins get out of here. He wouldn't won 522 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. If another safety comes in and signs 523 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,199 Speaker 1: a deal, hired in yours and they let you go, 524 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: then they set the market for the Cowboys at safety. 525 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: Everybody's gonna be like, we don't care what other teams 526 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: that play safeties. The Cowboys have never been in the 527 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: pan's safety maybe since Darren Woodson. So if they pay 528 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: a safety, even if he's not the highest pay safety, 529 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: the expectation for that guy is going to be higher 530 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: than Jamal Adams. You're the highest paid at your position 531 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 1: in the in the locker room, yeah, things are gonna 532 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: be expect You're expected to be the best at that 533 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 1: at that position and right now being fourth, they being 534 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: the fourth most productive and you're the highest paid. It 535 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: just doesn't add up. I think, and I also think 536 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 1: that fans are looking for a reason to kind of 537 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 1: explain why Jaylen Smith's production is fell off. Right. It's like, 538 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 1: it can't just be the scheme. It can't be this, 539 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 1: oh well now, it has to be that he's not 540 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: focused and that that always comes back to the Cowboys. Right. 541 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,719 Speaker 1: Anytime you see a Cowboy go out and do some 542 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: type of marketing or do some type of commercial and 543 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: then we don't have a good season, what do they say, Oh, 544 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: they're not focused, right, They focus on they focus on 545 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: the brand, they focus on whatever. I'm like, you could 546 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: do both, right, just because you shoot a commercial that 547 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,400 Speaker 1: ain't gonna make you miss a tackle, you just didn't 548 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: have a good season, right. Tony Rommel went through that. 549 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: If Tony was caught playing golf somewhere, everybody it would 550 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: get on him and say that he wasn't focused at all. Here. 551 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: But I go back to Jalen Smith and the fact 552 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys decided to pay him. This is really 553 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: on management and management's decision and what to do. They 554 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: ezekie elliet ninety million dollars. Then they go hire a 555 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: head coach who doesn't want to run the football last year. 556 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 1: He didn't happen because season at all. Amari Cooper gets 557 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:35,919 Speaker 1: paid a whole lot of money last year and he 558 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,199 Speaker 1: didn't have the season. When you talk about what you 559 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 1: got paid for, I mean, so I'm telling you man, 560 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: the bar for Jalen and even just the way we choose. 561 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: That's why I used to say I'm old NBC Sports 562 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: Radio show. It's interesting on who we choose to condemn 563 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: and who we choose to forgive. So we forgiven Ezekiel Eli, 564 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: We're forgiven Cooper, we forgiven Tank, but Jaylen Smith you're damned. 565 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: And that's how cowboy fans on Twitter treating this guy 566 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: heat the first dude to walk out of here get 567 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 1: a whole bag, and he's saying, huh, I mean Brandon 568 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 1: Carr got fifty million dollars. He wasn't a fifty million 569 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,920 Speaker 1: dollars corner. You know. It's not the Miles Austin got 570 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: paid a whole lot of money and he was never 571 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: the same player. Jalen Smith is really along the line 572 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: of the cowboy mistakes that we can look at in 573 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,879 Speaker 1: the last fifteen years and take did you overpay this player? 574 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,640 Speaker 1: It's happened, and it happens with every team, every team 575 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 1: old on hold on the exception, with the exception of 576 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: Miles Austin, because he was doing some crazy stuff, you know, 577 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: on the field when he got paid. Miles Auston was 578 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: out there getting two hundred yards this game, one fifty 579 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 1: to the next game. So I'm gonna take him out 580 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 1: of that category and say, when't they paid him? He 581 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 1: was worth it. I think then it kind of fell 582 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: off a little bit. I think the biggest difference between 583 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: you know those examples yet Ezekiel Elliot is the DeMarcus Lawrences, 584 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: you know, the Miles Austins, all those all those things, 585 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: is the difference is Jalen Smith got a new shiny 586 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: toy behind him, and everybody's gonna want to play with 587 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: that new shiny toy, which is Parsons. So they're gonna 588 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: make every excuse and every oh man he missed, he 589 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: just can't play. They're gonna go ahead and get on 590 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: him because they see what they what they have behind him, 591 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: and they want that new shiny toy to go ahead 592 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: and play. So they're gonna sit there and do everything 593 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: they can to get You know, mister clear, I have 594 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: you Jalen Smith about it there, which is it fair now, 595 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: But that's the fan base we live in. But that's 596 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: also that's also an NFL. That's it. That's true. If 597 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: you got a guy behind you pushing you and he's 598 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: making better plays than you and you're not making those plays, 599 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: that's the league, man. You know, no matter how much 600 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: money you got, it's always gonna be somebody that's creeping 601 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: up behind you trying to take your spot. And eventually 602 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: they always went out, with the exception of a Tom Brady, 603 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: you know, it always happens to where somebody is younger, faster, bigger, stronger, 604 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: and they come and they take your position because you 605 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: got older and father you're the first round him. They're 606 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: gonna have to play. I mean they're gonna have to well. Well, 607 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys would put themselves in a very 608 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: good position because Jalen Smith hears it, he knows it. 609 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: He's got to have a good year. If he wants 610 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: to come back next year, he's gonna he's gonna need 611 00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: to have a good year. And if he wants to 612 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: leave and get a contract after he leaves here, he's 613 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: gonna need to have a good year and late Vanderest. 614 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 1: The team said, you know, we're not gonna pick up 615 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: your fifth year option, so he's got something to play for. 616 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 1: And to me, the Cowboys that put themselves in a 617 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: nice position. Oh, by the way, Danny, you weren't here. 618 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: And I said this about Jalen Smith in the linebacker group. Yes, 619 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: seventeen game season, there's a stretch where you're gonna play 620 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: eleven games in a row. They're gonna need all these guys. Okay, 621 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: they're going to need all these guys. Kean O'Neill has 622 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: an injury history, Late Vanderest has an injury history. Jabril 623 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: Cox and Michael Parsons these are rookies, and Michael Parsons 624 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: didn't play football last year. So this sense that you 625 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 1: know what, cut Jaylen Smith, will trade him. You're gonna 626 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: need all these guys over the course seventeen games during 627 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: this season, So there's no reason to cut the guy 628 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: or anything like some of the drastic things we're seeing. 629 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: It's this man, let this thing play out, and let's 630 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: let's have some faith that dan quinn is going to 631 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: be able to utilize these guys correctly. Now, speaking of that, 632 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay is the first game So you're gonna have 633 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: a nickel defense with your linebackers out here, because they've 634 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 1: got some outstanding weapons three group right receivers and Chris Godwin, 635 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: Mike Evans, and Antonio Brown. Then he got Rob Gronkowski 636 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: at tight end. Also got oj Howard coming back and 637 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,959 Speaker 1: tight end for Tampa as well. So who are your 638 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 1: nickel linebackers right now in your opinion for this Tampa 639 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: Bay game. We'll start with you, Danny Oho. My man 640 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: Mica is definitely gonna be in there. Uh, you know, 641 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: it's a little tough man, because I haven't really been 642 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: able to see practice. I know I've seen my man 643 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: Jalen in coverage, um, and I'm not liking it. Right. 644 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 1: So if I'm gonna have to leave one of these 645 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: linebackers in there, I'm going with fifty five at the mic. 646 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: I'm putting Parsons opposite of the nickel so he can 647 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: play on that tight end a little bit, and and 648 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: I rode with that, put Jordan Lewis at the slot 649 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 1: and and we'll see what happens. And then if it 650 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: doesn't work out, I'm still not putting Jayal in there. 651 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give Hi I'm gonna give I'm gonna give 652 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: my man Parsons some time, right, because we can't go 653 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 1: into this game and forget that. Even if Parsons doesn't 654 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 1: perform how we expect him to, it's his first NFL game, right, 655 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 1: So what the expectation is for him to out there 656 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 1: in lockdown everybody, it's not realistic, all right, So give 657 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: him some time. Let him get out there. This is 658 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: gonna be a really big test for him, a really 659 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 1: good learning experience, and I think he'll get better from it. 660 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: So put eleven out there, Put fifty five so he 661 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: can get on a playoff Lenny, and then see what 662 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: see how it shakes out. Look, man, when you're talking 663 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 1: about Nickel personnel, we're basically talking about the starters, because 664 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: that's basically what every offense is going towards. Nowadays, it's 665 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 1: more spread offense. Everybody's starting an eleven personnel. Nobody's really 666 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: dropping out there in twelve or twenty one personnel. Everybody's 667 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: in the eleven person So when we talk about this 668 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: Nickel linebacking group, we're talking about a group that's gonna 669 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 1: play probably seventy percent of the snaps out there. So basically, 670 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: your starters that for me, I'm gonna have to say 671 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 1: my nickel tandem now, it's not gonna happen, and it 672 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: ain't gonna happen because you know, I already know what 673 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: it is and they ain't gonna happen. But I would 674 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: love to see Parsons and Keyan O'Neil out there. I 675 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: felt like that tandem in Arizona when they played, I 676 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: felt like they fed off each other great. They're both 677 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: sideline and sideline guys, open field guys that can play 678 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: in space, and I think they can. You know, Keane 679 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 1: knew it is't the best coverage guy that there is, 680 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: but if they ask him to guard an in line 681 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: tighten or running back coming out the backfield, I think 682 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 1: he's more than capable of doing that. So I feel 683 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: like those two are best opportunities to pretty have a 684 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: good solid nickel defense. I mean, when you when you 685 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: talk about Keana know he's coming from safety. I'm not 686 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: sure how he's gonna do against the you know, in 687 00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: the trenches and all that. But after watching this guy 688 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: at the point of attack, you know he arrives, he 689 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 1: arrives at the ball with violence. I mean, it's not 690 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 1: like leaky yardage where you know he's contacting the running 691 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 1: back and running backs falling forward for an extra three 692 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: to four yards. This is guy's stopping people dead in 693 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: their tracks or he's driving them back. So I think 694 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: he has what it takes to be an every down 695 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 1: linebacker in this league. And I think so far he's 696 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 1: performed the best as far as open field and covering 697 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 1: than any other guys. And then we got you know, 698 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: Parson's over there, who's flying around the football. So I 699 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: would love for them to see. For the Cowboys that 700 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: have those two guys jot out there, it's not gonna happen. 701 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 1: It's gonna be lv and Jaylen Smith going out there, 702 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 1: and then we're gonna have to go through our bumps 703 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: and bruises out there until they put the other two in. 704 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: But for me, that's that's who I would have out 705 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 1: there because you know, I feel like they give us 706 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: the best opportunity to play in space and that's where 707 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: this league is going. It's all space ball. Can you 708 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: see a package where it's Neil fifty five and Parsons 709 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 1: own and they treat they treat they treat Neil like 710 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: a walk down safety. So he's always gonna be down. 711 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: But who is he gonna be? Is he gonna be 712 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: walked oft on over the slot? It depends on who 713 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: who they want him to cover. I would say no, 714 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 1: only only because when an offense comes out and they 715 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: see that package, they're gonna know that if it's a pass, 716 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,399 Speaker 1: that that defense got gotta be in zone because I mean, 717 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 1: and it's just gonna be and it's gonna be a 718 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,319 Speaker 1: telltale because they're not gonna have Kean O'Neil, you know, 719 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: guarding a slot one on one. I don't. I don't 720 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: think that's a good matchup at all. So they're gonna 721 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 1: know that it's gonna always be zoned and they're gonna 722 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: have their zone beers out there for so it's gonna 723 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 1: be hard to disguise that type of package out there. 724 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: But I still think that's better than well, I mean, 725 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 1: I mean, it's him playing the safety. Oh, it's him 726 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: playing the safety, right, So you got the two safeties 727 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: and a linebacker, right, but he's one of the safeties, okay, 728 00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,919 Speaker 1: and you still have a slot out there. But the sky, yeah, 729 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: I think the guys is out saying yeah. But if 730 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 1: you remember, if you remember dan Quinn. This guys was 731 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: they tried a little bit, but we knew exactly what 732 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 1: they were running, right, and they got out there and 733 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 1: they played the coverage. UM. So I mean you like 734 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: saying we're all dreaming, it's not gonna happen. We all 735 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 1: know what's gonna happen. It would be great though, what 736 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: you think about. So let me ask this question here 737 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: because we bring up Kean O'Neill who was with the 738 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons and the Falcons faced the Bucks twice a year. Um, 739 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: being NFC South team, So how much in terms of 740 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: hint and I know Tom Brady was there last year 741 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: it was just first year, but just an ability to 742 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: have spent time prepping and watching Tampa Bay. How much 743 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 1: do you think that factors into them putting him out 744 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: on the field in a Nickel package in your opinion? Uh? Me, 745 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: not really. UM, I think this is this is entirely 746 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: good and sometimes you have some guys that are out 747 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,839 Speaker 1: there being able to recognize some of that stuff, but 748 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,240 Speaker 1: it's not often and coaches really don't plan on putting 749 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: guys out there specifically for that reason. Right, It's a plus, 750 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 1: but I don't think they will be out there just 751 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: for that. Yeah, I think he can help them out 752 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 1: as far as letting them know, you know what, you know, 753 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,399 Speaker 1: Mike Evans likes to run what Godwin likes to run, 754 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 1: you know, maybe what Howard likes to run in that 755 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 1: tight end position. But as far as giving them that, 756 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:20,919 Speaker 1: you know, the nuances and all that stuff, I don't 757 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: think it'd be that big of a big of a 758 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 1: thing um for them going forward with him being a 759 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 1: being that played against Tampa Bay all those years. All right, 760 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: let's get another break in here. I've got several topics 761 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 1: I want to get to here. We got to take 762 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:39,399 Speaker 1: a look at hard knocks um, your thoughts on Dak 763 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,240 Speaker 1: Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott most likely not getting any snaps 764 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 1: in the preseason. Let's dive into that.

I think we did good with Parsons. 839 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 1: By the way.

I 842 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 1: think we should be able to see something a week 843 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 1: two and then you can start to go from there. 844 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 1: No Hard Knocks Episode two air Tuesday night. What were 845 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 1: your initial thoughts about the show? Start with you, mister positivity. 846 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 1: Danny Krept Listen, I think I think Hard Knox is 847 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 1: a little different now because it's the Cowboys. I said 848 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:34,759 Speaker 1: it before and I'll say it again. I knew this 849 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: was going to be the Zeke and Dak show. It 850 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 1: is literally all about Zeke and Dak. They did have 851 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 1: have my Man in there. I forget his name was 852 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: at the Man, Yeah, So they had him on there. 853 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 1: They had a special little story on Yeah, which was 854 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,839 Speaker 1: which was great to see some insighter that I see 855 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 1: his mom at the game, you know, dressed in her 856 00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 1: culture and all that stuff. I thought, I thought that 857 00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 1: was really amazing. And then right after that you go 858 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,719 Speaker 1: back to Zeke. You know this with is um uh 859 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 1: sunflower seeds. The whole like the whole game was about 860 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 1: Zeke and subflower seeds, and you know, so I'm like, 861 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 1: I like the show. I like where they're going with it. 862 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 1: But I really enjoyed the show the previous shows because 863 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 1: they showed a lot more of those bubble guys and 864 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 1: the lifestyle that they live and how much pressure they 865 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 1: were under and trying to figure out if they were 866 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 1: gonna make the team for me, because that's the position 867 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 1: that I was in. I'd like to see more of that, 868 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 1: but you know it was good. Not much Mike McCarthy again, 869 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: we saw a little bit, little bit of Jarry. But 870 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 1: one of these days knew we're gonna see a little 871 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,359 Speaker 1: personality come from McCarthy and see what he's all about. 872 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: One day we're gonna see. I ain't gonna lie. I'm 873 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 1: thinking Hard Knocks right now, it's pretty boring. I mean, 874 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:43,799 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm sitting there, I'm like, man, well, what 875 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 1: happened to the flair? I mean, like the previous Hard 876 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 1: Knocks seasons, there was always you get to see all 877 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 1: the dudes joking around in the locker room, playing pranks 878 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 1: on each other, just talking noise left and right, you know, 879 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 1: getting ready to line up somebody. I'm gonna smoke you 880 00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: or I'm gonna burn you, I'm gonna lock you up. 881 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 1: Like it was a lot of that in them Hard 882 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: Knock seasons. Now it's just it's just like a reality show. 883 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 1: It's like keeping up with Dah and Zeke right now. 884 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 1: And and I understand, you know there's stars, they're you know, 885 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,320 Speaker 1: faces of the franchise. You know, they're a couple of 886 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: stars in the NFL. You know that just got paid 887 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,240 Speaker 1: all that good stuff. But man, I want to see more, 888 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 1: Like you said, I want to see more of the 889 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 1: bubble guys what they're going through, you know, because it's 890 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 1: stressful for them right now. You know, they're they're they're 891 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: fighting and scratching and clawed just to make it onto 892 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,720 Speaker 1: the fifty three man roster. So I'd like to see 893 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 1: them dive more into that, into what they got going on, 894 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 1: seeing how they pick up the playbook under Like, man, 895 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,479 Speaker 1: I don't know how I'm I'm gonna perform this preseason game, 896 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: Like you know, see what these guys are going through. 897 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,759 Speaker 1: I think that'd be more authentic, and I think it 898 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:41,520 Speaker 1: would be a little bit better and better for TV. 899 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:43,919 Speaker 1: Right now. I feel like it's just a reality show 900 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 1: right now. And you know, like like I said, you 901 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: got to keep up with the stars. But I want 902 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:49,960 Speaker 1: to see a little bit more of those those guys 903 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 1: in the trenches, those guys that are battling for that 904 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 1: fifty three man spot, and it show a little bit 905 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 1: more camaraderie, shows some more joking around with other people. 906 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I know there's more personalities than than he 907 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 1: can doc out there. We got some funny cats on 908 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 1: the team, so I think it's pretty boring so far. 909 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:08,080 Speaker 1: But I did like Azor Kamara's part in the show 910 00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 1: where you know, his family got to see him for 911 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,839 Speaker 1: the first time playing in the International Football League, first 912 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:14,440 Speaker 1: time watching them play, and he ended up going in 913 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 1: there and getting the would be game when it's sacked 914 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 1: but Arizona fall started and then ended up giving them 915 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:21,600 Speaker 1: life again. But I think it was you know, I 916 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 1: think that part of the show was definitely great and 917 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,879 Speaker 1: definitely worth watching. But so far this season, I'm kind 918 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,319 Speaker 1: of bored with it. I will say. I do also 919 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: want to see more competition. Ye seeing one on ones 920 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,280 Speaker 1: and now he saw the Mojo moment for the last episode. 921 00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 1: We ain't seen, you know, any of those moments to 922 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: where it's person situations and you see like a CD 923 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 1: going against tray Undude, Like we should see that repeatedly. 924 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: We should see Michael Parson's going against the Zeke, you 925 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,279 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying that one on one we should 926 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:49,319 Speaker 1: be able to watch that and see the reaction on 927 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:51,239 Speaker 1: how it happened, to see how excited one is to 928 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 1: win and how they do talk back to each other, 929 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:55,239 Speaker 1: Like we haven't been able to see any of that. 930 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 1: It's really been like I said, but I will say this, 931 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:01,960 Speaker 1: I do like what they did with the Marcus Lawrence 932 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 1: and his family, how they saw him, you know, at 933 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:05,400 Speaker 1: the beach and all that. It kind of got to 934 00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: humanize these guys to where, you know, everybody just kind 935 00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 1: of sees them as football players football football twenty four seven, 936 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: and we kind of got to see, you know, a 937 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 1: little little a little bit of lightened to you know, 938 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 1: the Marcus Lawrence and how how his family is and 939 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 1: how they can make it a tradition to come out 940 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 1: to ox North. So I like that part as well. 941 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,360 Speaker 1: But like you said, man, we gotta see some more competition. 942 00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,760 Speaker 1: I want to see some more hits thrown fights, something 943 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 1: we see. We haven't seen much of it all right, 944 00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 1: since you guys are TV producers now, he asked us 945 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: the question. So so, so I'm going to I'm going 946 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 1: to defend the show a little bit in this way. 947 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,360 Speaker 1: Number One, I don't know what they can and can't 948 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 1: do because of pro of COVID protocols. Because if you remember, 949 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 1: in some of the episodes they did last year, they 950 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,719 Speaker 1: went to guys houses and they got to hang out 951 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 1: with him, So you haven't seen too much of that. 952 00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:00,440 Speaker 1: You know, they did see show you and TD Lamb's 953 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:03,719 Speaker 1: you know, residence in hotel room and you saw Zeke there. 954 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:05,880 Speaker 1: So that part I do wonder about. And here's a 955 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,799 Speaker 1: really really big part that most folks don't know. And 956 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 1: I found this out because I was sitting around talking 957 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:14,760 Speaker 1: to Rich down report the media party and he said 958 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:16,879 Speaker 1: he has to go. He's like, yeah, I gotta get 959 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:20,759 Speaker 1: back because I have to edit hert knocks And we 960 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 1: were talking to the Hall of fameers like yeah, I 961 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 1: gotta get back. So Rich is basically in there. Rich 962 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 1: is the Turk for hard Knocks, where he goes in 963 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,560 Speaker 1: there says take that out. Yeah, that's not gonna be 964 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,040 Speaker 1: in here. So I do wonder how much of the 965 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 1: how much of the eraser has he gone in there? 966 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 1: For now? I know Rich and McCarthy are boys. They're 967 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,759 Speaker 1: both Pittsburgh guys. I mean, they're boys. There was something 968 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 1: that may not have made McCarthy look good. Maybe did 969 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 1: he Rich say Nope, I don't want that in there 970 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 1: because I don't want McCarthy to do dad, you know, 971 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:52,279 Speaker 1: to ever look like Hugh Jackson did, Campo did during 972 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 1: Hard Knocks because Dave Campo and Hugh Jackson did not 973 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 1: come off good, and I know that's been an issue 974 00:46:57,600 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 1: for McCarthy. They want to make sure the guy looks good. 975 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:02,440 Speaker 1: So I do wonder how much creative control the Cowboys 976 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 1: have have exhibited in making this really in the episode 977 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 1: two of my opinion, just kind of snoozing. Yeah, and 978 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 1: that is true. That is true. I didn't realize that, 979 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 1: you know, they got to go in here and kind 980 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 1: of erase some of the stuff. So maybe they did 981 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,839 Speaker 1: take some of the juicy stuff out. But I don't know, man, 982 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 1: I still think it's kind of boring right now. They 983 00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 1: need to go ahead and show a little bit more competition. 984 00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:23,359 Speaker 1: What you think about that? Yeah, listen, I don't think 985 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 1: Richard's going in there telling them not to show the 986 00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 1: bubble players. You know that he might be. He might 987 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 1: be going in they're telling them, you know, how to 988 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 1: make McCarthy look, how to make Jerry look. But as 989 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 1: far as what we're asking for, showing competition on the field, 990 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 1: like we already know, they're not going to show us 991 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:39,399 Speaker 1: plays and schemes and stuff based off what we saw 992 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:43,360 Speaker 1: it last season when they did the Cowboys Night, and 993 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 1: we all went to watch it on TV and we 994 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 1: just saw the sideline, so we know they're not going 995 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 1: to show that, but we're just asking for straight competition, 996 00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 1: competitive rips. Seeing these guys in their competitive element and 997 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 1: then seeing the reaction to that. Right, some of the 998 00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,239 Speaker 1: best stuff that we saw with Dez when they want 999 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 1: all the nothing his competitive spirit you can't guard. Yeah, yeah, 1000 00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 1: then you seeing the other players like who you're talking to? Girl, 1001 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:09,319 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna get like, like people enjoyed that. They 1002 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,879 Speaker 1: want to see that fire and they love you for that. 1003 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,320 Speaker 1: And I don't feel like we've seen that from for anybody, 1004 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:16,640 Speaker 1: Like we see Parsons talking about talking a lot about football. 1005 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 1: Outside of that, we haven't seen anybody getting getting into 1006 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 1: that type of element? Are you here? When Aiden was 1007 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:28,279 Speaker 1: kind of just like a quality control guy here? And 1008 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 1: that's what cracks me up about it the boat Like 1009 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:31,799 Speaker 1: when I when I look at Aid and how far 1010 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:33,839 Speaker 1: he's climbed because he's a deep as a line coach now. 1011 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 1: But when I was here back in I think it 1012 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 1: was twenty fourteen, it was right before you got back 1013 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,879 Speaker 1: in twenty fifteen, he was like a quality control guy. 1014 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 1: He was just you know, helping out on scout team, 1015 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:43,839 Speaker 1: running and running routes for us, and to see him 1016 00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 1: kind of grow into that deep as a line coach, 1017 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 1: and it's hilarious to me, mister positivity, I gotta, I 1018 00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:52,920 Speaker 1: gotta do it. Let me see what Big Cat here. 1019 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 1: When Aiden was here running around on quality control. Yes, okay, 1020 00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm just because I'm yes, good, Okay, was here and 1021 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:02,960 Speaker 1: Big Cat has been here since then in the churches 1022 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 1: with those guys. But because I saw him with the 1023 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:13,879 Speaker 1: bags and stuff, I was like the big kid, Okay, yeah, yeah, listen, 1024 00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:17,920 Speaker 1: you gotta do what you gotta do, guess. So I'll 1025 00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:21,320 Speaker 1: defend I'll defend it in this sense because we spoke 1026 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 1: about this before and when I said, whoever, whatever coordinator 1027 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 1: you brought in here, you needed to let him bring 1028 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:31,240 Speaker 1: in his guys who could teach his system. So Aiden, 1029 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 1: it was with dan Quinn in Atlanta and Big Cat 1030 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:37,480 Speaker 1: dan Quinn don't have a working relationship. So based on 1031 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:40,399 Speaker 1: its atrocious is what we saw from Mike Nolan last year. 1032 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:42,920 Speaker 1: I felt that dan Quinn should be able to get 1033 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:44,920 Speaker 1: his guys and he did on the front and the 1034 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,440 Speaker 1: back ends, and dan quinne if if you're out there 1035 00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,239 Speaker 1: training camp like I was, you see him doing a 1036 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,720 Speaker 1: lot of work with the D line, So he's actually 1037 00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:54,399 Speaker 1: making sure that Aiden is getting more what he wants done. 1038 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:57,799 Speaker 1: So I'm defending it that way because I just felt 1039 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:00,359 Speaker 1: like they needed to give the defensive coordinator what he 1040 00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:03,120 Speaker 1: needed to and I saw what they did with Christopher Sharp, 1041 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 1: and Christoph Sharpe wanted to bring in his own linebacker coach, 1042 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,279 Speaker 1: Michael Barrow, and they were like, Nah, we already got 1043 00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:12,360 Speaker 1: a guy who's here, and that didn't work out at all. Yeah, 1044 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:16,439 Speaker 1: that's true. I guess when you come bloom, so I guess. 1045 00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 1: I mean you want guys that come in, you know, 1046 00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 1: to teach your system that's been under your system. So 1047 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,320 Speaker 1: I can understand that for sure. But I got a 1048 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,560 Speaker 1: question for both of y'all. Does this seemed like to 1049 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:28,120 Speaker 1: y'all that most defensive coordinators or D line coaches, because 1050 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:29,840 Speaker 1: I mean it was like it was it was Rob Bryan, 1051 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:32,640 Speaker 1: it was Marinelli was our DC. He was a D 1052 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:34,880 Speaker 1: line coach. Dan who is the DC, he's a D 1053 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,799 Speaker 1: line coach. When I was in Jacksonville, our DC, he 1054 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:39,480 Speaker 1: was a D line coach. I mean, it just feels 1055 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 1: like I would say this, I had mil Tucker, who 1056 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:46,120 Speaker 1: was defensive backs backs. TAB never had a defensive backs 1057 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,320 Speaker 1: coach be the DC because then everything were favorite of 1058 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 1: the secondary, you know, and we never had that. Everything 1059 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:54,160 Speaker 1: here has always been about we got to put the 1060 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 1: defensive line in the best position they can be in 1061 00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,359 Speaker 1: and y'all just feed off of that. I just never 1062 00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 1: I just I just always wondered if it was like that. 1063 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:01,680 Speaker 1: But I guess as you got a dB coach, I 1064 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 1: mean sounded a little jealous their church, they put us 1065 00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 1: in some afantageous positions. Right. Well, I'll go back to uh, 1066 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 1: you know, Mike Zimmer was here, he was a DB's coach, 1067 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:20,359 Speaker 1: he's a coordinator. Dave Campo was a dB dB coach 1068 00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 1: before he became the coordinator on their Super Bowl thirty team. 1069 00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:26,080 Speaker 1: So they have they've had guys who've been uh, you know, 1070 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 1: defensive back coaches in the past. So so we have 1071 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:32,319 Speaker 1: seen that Brian Stewart, who was a defensive coordinator under 1072 00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 1: way his first year here. Brian was a defensive backs 1073 00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 1: coach when he came over from the Chargers. So it's there, 1074 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:41,240 Speaker 1: and then of course you start looking at Bill Belichick 1075 00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:44,879 Speaker 1: and Pete Carroll. These guys were during their time. So 1076 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,280 Speaker 1: that's true. So we've seen Tom Landry and people forget 1077 00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 1: Tom Landry is a former defensive back uh uh at 1078 00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 1: the University of Texas in the NFL, then became the 1079 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 1: Giants defensive coordinator and helped put in that flex defense. 1080 00:51:56,680 --> 00:52:01,080 Speaker 1: So I think, what is if when he was here, 1081 00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:04,239 Speaker 1: if we would have had a defensive coordinator that was 1082 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 1: a dB coach, he would have never got to go 1083 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville because he would have got paid. They would 1084 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:13,000 Speaker 1: have showed him their respect. But you know, it didn't happen. 1085 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 1: So they ended up paying d law huntymon. They paid 1086 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,680 Speaker 1: D what they paid other guys on the defensive line 1087 00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 1: before they would paid defensive backs because the defensive coordinator 1088 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,000 Speaker 1: was it D line coach. I feel you sadies act 1089 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 1: been paid here since I mean, who was the last 1090 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:29,400 Speaker 1: safety they got paid here? Was? It was? It was 1091 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:32,560 Speaker 1: sensible and then they got rid of him that right, 1092 00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 1: I mean, so I pretty much knew I wasn't gonna 1093 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:37,319 Speaker 1: get paid here. I knew I was on to weigh 1094 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,839 Speaker 1: yall that last. But no, they don't don't let church 1095 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 1: for you. They paid you while you were hurt. They 1096 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 1: got the discount check on that one, but they didn't 1097 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:49,279 Speaker 1: look out for me because I was coming in with 1098 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,160 Speaker 1: the achilles I was. I signed my contract rolling in 1099 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,840 Speaker 1: here on a scooter. So shout out to Jared. He 1100 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 1: didn't shave a nothing. Man came. What was my man? 1101 00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 1: George had with the beer going it was It wasn't 1102 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 1: a good look, but I was. I was on trying 1103 00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:10,960 Speaker 1: times back then. So the Cowboys will take on the 1104 00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 1: Houston Texans Saturday night at and T Stadium. It is 1105 00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 1: the technical dress rehearsal. Mike McCarthy has already said that 1106 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,840 Speaker 1: no starters are going to play in that last preseason 1107 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:21,879 Speaker 1: game against Jacksonville. They will treat that as a game 1108 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:24,960 Speaker 1: for guys trying to make the team. Um, Dak Prescott 1109 00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:27,840 Speaker 1: is not going to play. Mike McCarthy stay, he wouldn't 1110 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:29,520 Speaker 1: be surprised if he didn't. Teeny snaps, which is just 1111 00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 1: you know, you guys have been around the block. You 1112 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,239 Speaker 1: know he's not playing, as Ellen's not playing. How do 1113 00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 1: you feel about twenty two one four basically twenty one 1114 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:38,800 Speaker 1: and four two one four not getting any snaps in 1115 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:41,000 Speaker 1: the preseason and their first action is going to be 1116 00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:45,640 Speaker 1: against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Week one. Well, well, to me, 1117 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with you, Um, before the injury, 1118 00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:50,920 Speaker 1: before Dak's injury to his shoulder, out have been like, man, 1119 00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:52,920 Speaker 1: come on, we gotta get this guy at least, you know, 1120 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,680 Speaker 1: one or two series in this whole preseason because he 1121 00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:57,400 Speaker 1: hasn't played in such a long time. He hasn't been 1122 00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:59,759 Speaker 1: around live bullets in such a long time. But after 1123 00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 1: that injury to his shoulder, you know, I don't think 1124 00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 1: the risk doesn't The risk doesn't outweigh a reward like 1125 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 1: or the risk whatever. Either way, it doesn't. It doesn't 1126 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 1: make sense to me because if he goes out there 1127 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:12,759 Speaker 1: and let's just say he suffered some fluke injury, I mean, 1128 00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:15,560 Speaker 1: what's the whole season's down the drain. And if he doesn't, 1129 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:17,799 Speaker 1: I mean he played a preseason game, which doesn't matter 1130 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:20,000 Speaker 1: so to me, and in the Dak thing, I have 1131 00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 1: no problem with him not playing. Zeke on the other hand, 1132 00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:24,680 Speaker 1: I mean, he hasn't played in the preseason game and 1133 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:28,080 Speaker 1: what since his rookie year maybe, and then each year 1134 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:30,080 Speaker 1: after that has been a decline. I just want to 1135 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:32,279 Speaker 1: see him go out there and at least get one 1136 00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:33,880 Speaker 1: or two one or two series out there. I'm not 1137 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:35,440 Speaker 1: saying he has to play the whole game or to 1138 00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:37,840 Speaker 1: get you know, fifteen carriers or anything like that, but 1139 00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:39,279 Speaker 1: just let him get his feet wet a little bit, 1140 00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: let him, you know, get acclimented to being out there. 1141 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:42,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to go him to go out there 1142 00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 1: against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which is a fierce defense. 1143 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 1: That ain't no defense that's just you know, Johnny Come 1144 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 1: Lately or whatever type of defense. This is a fierce 1145 00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:51,319 Speaker 1: defense out there. I don't want him to go out 1146 00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:53,040 Speaker 1: there and just be man shell shocked and getting his 1147 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:55,239 Speaker 1: head knocked off out there. So I'd like to see 1148 00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:56,920 Speaker 1: him get a couple rests, but he's not gonna do it. 1149 00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 1: Hopefully he comes into that Tampa Bay game ready to 1150 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:02,279 Speaker 1: roll because he won't have any preseason snaps. I'm kind 1151 00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:06,160 Speaker 1: of opposite the Church on the Zeke thing. Seventeen game season. 1152 00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 1: The way that I expect them to play and I 1153 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 1: hope that they play, is that this guy gets more snaps, 1154 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 1: more runs than he's gotten in his entire career. Right 1155 00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:17,839 Speaker 1: what we know about Zeke is if you feed him 1156 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:20,720 Speaker 1: and he's protecting the ball. He's going to make some plays, 1157 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:23,720 Speaker 1: all right, And when he comes to Dak, I would 1158 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 1: honestly rather see Dak go out there and play like 1159 00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:29,360 Speaker 1: garbage the first two games because he didn't play in 1160 00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:31,920 Speaker 1: the preseason, then risk him going out there and playing 1161 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 1: in the preseason and getting hurt. If he goes out 1162 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:36,280 Speaker 1: there and he has a slow start because he hasn't 1163 00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:38,920 Speaker 1: played in real live snaps since he got hurt last season, 1164 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:41,759 Speaker 1: I am totally okay with that. We've all agreed that 1165 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,439 Speaker 1: the first four games anyway, we should be a very 1166 00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:48,160 Speaker 1: run heavy team, all right, So let back EA's back 1167 00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 1: into and he's back into the game, give him some 1168 00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 1: easy throws to get him ready to go, and I 1169 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,359 Speaker 1: think he'll be fine. One thing we know about Dak 1170 00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 1: is we have not seen him go out in a 1171 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,000 Speaker 1: season and not put up some of the best quarterback 1172 00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 1: numbers that we've ever seen. He's been doing it since 1173 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 1: he got into the league. So I don't like I 1174 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,160 Speaker 1: doubt that it would change this year. He's gonna be 1175 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,239 Speaker 1: a little rusty, but I'm not worried about it. Leave 1176 00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 1: him on the sideline, Leave Zeke on the sideline, because 1177 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:15,760 Speaker 1: in all honesty, Our entire season depends on those two guys. 1178 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 1: It's very true, Louis. And you've got Amari Cooper, who 1179 00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:25,399 Speaker 1: will play against the Houston Texans, number nineteen practicing this week, 1180 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 1: says he is going to play your thoughts all right, listen, 1181 00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:31,319 Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought up Coop because the last time 1182 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:32,640 Speaker 1: I was on the show, I remember we were talking 1183 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 1: about how Coop's gonna be the number one because that's 1184 00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:36,759 Speaker 1: comfortable with him, and I've meant to bring that up 1185 00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:39,719 Speaker 1: about hard knocks say what you want too, though, But 1186 00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:42,480 Speaker 1: when I was hearing those clips of Dak talking about 1187 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 1: what Cedee Lamb could do, I was like, new number 1188 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:48,960 Speaker 1: one guy, he said, man, he said easiest. He's an 1189 00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 1: easy guy to throw the deep ball too, because he 1190 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 1: just runs up under that thing. And you just see 1191 00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:56,799 Speaker 1: him looking at all as he watched Ceedee Lamb make 1192 00:56:56,840 --> 00:57:00,439 Speaker 1: all these spectacular catches and rock these guys up. He's 1193 00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:02,960 Speaker 1: looking at CD like, I can't wait to get out 1194 00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:04,239 Speaker 1: there and be able to throw this guy in the 1195 00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 1: real game because we're gonna do some real, real damage. 1196 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,600 Speaker 1: I'm looking at seeing CD Lamb by the end of 1197 00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:13,239 Speaker 1: the season being the number one option on the Dallas 1198 00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 1: Cowboys team in the receiving corps. It ain't no way 1199 00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:19,160 Speaker 1: like I love I love CD and what he's bringing 1200 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 1: to the table. I think he's definitely poised to make 1201 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:23,640 Speaker 1: that year or two jump and he's gonna be one 1202 00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 1: of the best. But I think he'll be a one 1203 00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:27,720 Speaker 1: B or maybe a two. I mean, we can't forget 1204 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:29,439 Speaker 1: about Cooper here. I mean, this is a guy. Five 1205 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:31,840 Speaker 1: of the last six seasons he's went over a thousand yards. 1206 00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy, he's a legit receivers. What's Miles 1207 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,680 Speaker 1: Austin here when Dad's got here? Yeah? Okay, because Miles 1208 00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:41,600 Speaker 1: Austin was one, Davis was two, and quickly in that season, 1209 00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 1: Davis became the number one. Okay, I'm seeing that now. 1210 00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:48,240 Speaker 1: It didn't take anything away from Miles. It ain't taking 1211 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 1: nothing away from Coop, but what we're what we're seeing 1212 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:54,720 Speaker 1: as far as OTAs and training camp from CD. You 1213 00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:58,480 Speaker 1: can't deny that it's been great. It's been great to watch, 1214 00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:02,280 Speaker 1: So I don't I can see this happening where Back 1215 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 1: gets in there and he's thrown at the CD and 1216 00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 1: CD becomes that guy. And we already saw last season 1217 00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 1: that Keller Moore is willing to put CD Lamb in 1218 00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:12,680 Speaker 1: those situations when his crunch time and get him the ball. 1219 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:15,160 Speaker 1: And that was his rookie season. So Keiller Moore's watching this, 1220 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:19,200 Speaker 1: Ye're like, oh yeah, oh yeah, all right, all right, 1221 00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:21,520 Speaker 1: let me let me interject here. Let me interject here, 1222 00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 1: because you guys are safety, So tell me this. These 1223 00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:28,120 Speaker 1: two guys line up, who you're gonna double cover nineteen 1224 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:31,400 Speaker 1: or eighty eight. I think it'd be easier to double 1225 00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 1: double eighty eight because he's in the slot. And what 1226 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:35,480 Speaker 1: you can do is you can have that nickel on 1227 00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:37,560 Speaker 1: the outside. You can have a linebacker kind of banging 1228 00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:40,280 Speaker 1: him on the inside. You can have somebody dropping, maybe 1229 00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,880 Speaker 1: a defensive lineman dropping to kind of to kind of 1230 00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 1: skeer his inside route. So I think it's easier to 1231 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 1: double a slot guy than it is to double guy 1232 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:50,240 Speaker 1: on the outside because if you double guyn the outside, 1233 00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:51,960 Speaker 1: let's say you get a corner and the safety over there, 1234 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:53,960 Speaker 1: that safety's gonna be leaning. So that that was that 1235 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:56,200 Speaker 1: quarterback already knows all right, well he's doubled out there 1236 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:57,520 Speaker 1: is let me see what I got options I got 1237 00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:00,600 Speaker 1: over here? When when the guy's in the slot can 1238 00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 1: disguise that that's not what new he's asking you. Okaymark 1239 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 1: Cooper is at the X and Cede Lamb is at 1240 00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:12,720 Speaker 1: the Z. Who are you doubling? It's what he's asking. Okay, 1241 00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 1: that's what that's what he's asking. I'm doubling. I'm absolutely not. Yeah, no, no, 1242 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:20,160 Speaker 1: no one. It depends on thousand, this is and all 1243 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 1: that stuff. But I'm going to CD right now. I 1244 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:24,320 Speaker 1: think on the first couple of games, you'll see that 1245 00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:26,520 Speaker 1: CD is going to be more explosive than Amark Cooper, 1246 00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:29,640 Speaker 1: especially since Amari Cooper has missed all this time and 1247 00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:32,720 Speaker 1: it's coming off of surgery. Clam is gonna be the 1248 00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:35,240 Speaker 1: guy that you need to stop. Kevin Moore is going 1249 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:37,480 Speaker 1: to make sure that Ceede Lamb is getting the spotlight 1250 00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:40,680 Speaker 1: in this offense. You just watching that man's getting twenty 1251 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:43,000 Speaker 1: meal on the right side, Cooper is getting twenty. They're 1252 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:46,080 Speaker 1: gonna be like you ran the over route on fourth 1253 00:59:46,120 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 1: and fourth and three last season. That was Lamb who 1254 00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:52,520 Speaker 1: who they got the ball to. It was specifically to him. 1255 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:54,600 Speaker 1: Hey man, let's get eighty eighth the ball that was 1256 00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:57,800 Speaker 1: his rookie year. This is the second year, it's gonna happen. 1257 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,080 Speaker 1: So so so let me let me throw this out here 1258 01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:06,120 Speaker 1: and just just not calling them these tandems. Okay, I'm 1259 01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 1: not calling them these tandems, but I'm just gonna throw 1260 01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 1: out two tandems that where you had a number one 1261 01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:15,080 Speaker 1: guy who then got joined by a younger guy, and 1262 01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:17,480 Speaker 1: we saw how they were able to kind of flip 1263 01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 1: PLoP it a little bit. Um. You saw Chris Carter 1264 01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 1: then get joined by Randy Moss, and you saw what 1265 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:25,440 Speaker 1: they were able to do there. We saw an Kumbolden 1266 01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:27,840 Speaker 1: then get joined by Larry Fitzgerald with the Cardinals, so 1267 01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:30,120 Speaker 1: we've seen where and then over with the Rams you 1268 01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:32,040 Speaker 1: had Isaac Bruce who was established one, and then they 1269 01:00:32,080 --> 01:00:34,080 Speaker 1: drafted Tory Holt and when we saw what they were 1270 01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:36,479 Speaker 1: able to do there. Could we be talking in terms 1271 01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:39,000 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys may have this similar situation with a 1272 01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 1: Namari Cooper and Ceedee Land. Oh, without a doubt. I think, 1273 01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 1: I mean if if, if they continue to play off 1274 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:45,800 Speaker 1: each other like they have, I mean, they could be 1275 01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:48,360 Speaker 1: one of the top duels in the National Football League. 1276 01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:50,200 Speaker 1: I mean the only team that may have a better duo, 1277 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:53,600 Speaker 1: you know, Tampa Bay with Guy one in Evans and 1278 01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:57,240 Speaker 1: Tennessee with Brown and Julio Jones. But I mean you 1279 01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:59,520 Speaker 1: may throw in, you know, the vikings with Jefferson and 1280 01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:01,560 Speaker 1: the Eland, but other than that, I mean, I don't 1281 01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 1: really see. You know, it's tandem. That's better than what 1282 01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:06,560 Speaker 1: we got here in Dallas. And you see how we're 1283 01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:09,560 Speaker 1: just excluding Gallop in all this conversation. I'm telling you 1284 01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:13,600 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. He gonna start getting these clippings and like, man, 1285 01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:16,760 Speaker 1: hold on, man, listen and listen, all respect to Gallup, 1286 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:19,680 Speaker 1: he gonna we're talking about who can possibly be the 1287 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:22,160 Speaker 1: number one receiver on this team? All right, all the 1288 01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:25,600 Speaker 1: respect to him, it's between CD and it's between Amari 1289 01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:30,280 Speaker 1: Cooper and I'm still the mindset of throughout this season. 1290 01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:32,920 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna see if CD Lamb continues to 1291 01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,840 Speaker 1: play like he's been playing in training camp, he's gonna 1292 01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:37,880 Speaker 1: be He's gonna be the guy. The guy. The guy 1293 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,640 Speaker 1: is showing me. I hate to say it because I'm 1294 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,439 Speaker 1: not there. I'm not I'm not on the field watching it, 1295 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:50,040 Speaker 1: but I'm seeing on these highlights and Daz Bran, you Bran, 1296 01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:53,240 Speaker 1: come on, man, did we all did you not see 1297 01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:58,360 Speaker 1: the one hand in the back of ends all. I said, no, no, 1298 01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:01,320 Speaker 1: I said type stuff that we've seen when when this 1299 01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:03,600 Speaker 1: first came and he was in that training camp, we 1300 01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:06,600 Speaker 1: all looked at say that guy right there is special. 1301 01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:09,320 Speaker 1: When you're watching CD Lamb, the only thing I'm hearing 1302 01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:11,960 Speaker 1: not a training camp, is this guy is having a year. 1303 01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:13,960 Speaker 1: We even saw the playmaker come on and say that 1304 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:17,320 Speaker 1: true hard knocks, this dude is going to be a 1305 01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:20,000 Speaker 1: star making these plays. I mean, who are we to 1306 01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:22,840 Speaker 1: say you know more that we know more about playmakers 1307 01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:27,720 Speaker 1: than many to him say no about Coop, that's true, 1308 01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:32,160 Speaker 1: that's true. You you are Look look Danny, you're right. 1309 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:34,600 Speaker 1: And I was there for so many of those practices, 1310 01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 1: and yeah, I mean he is a different level. And 1311 01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 1: they look at this. I think we're gonna go back 1312 01:02:41,080 --> 01:02:42,600 Speaker 1: and the next five years we're gonna go back and 1313 01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:45,280 Speaker 1: look at this draft and we'll talk about what a 1314 01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 1: great class of receivers they are there. Jefferson, We've already 1315 01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,280 Speaker 1: saw what he did last year with the Vikings. It 1316 01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 1: was a sensational rookie year. Um ceedee. Lamb in the 1317 01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:56,120 Speaker 1: second year is taking that step out of San Francisco 1318 01:02:56,440 --> 01:02:58,800 Speaker 1: Brandon I who had a really good rookie season and 1319 01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:00,919 Speaker 1: he was like Ceedee Lamb where they went through four 1320 01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:04,040 Speaker 1: quarterbacks last year. This guy is taking a step there. 1321 01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:07,600 Speaker 1: I think Jerry Judy wants Denver figures out a quarterback here. 1322 01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 1: Jerry Judy is gonna be a heck of a wide 1323 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,640 Speaker 1: receiver here. And if the Raiders can figure out how 1324 01:03:12,680 --> 01:03:14,760 Speaker 1: to hit Henry Rugs deep, you know, I think he's 1325 01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:16,720 Speaker 1: going to be another receiver which you'll kind of go 1326 01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:19,960 Speaker 1: back and say, well, where's Jalen Raiger of Philadelphia? I mean, 1327 01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:21,840 Speaker 1: they had quarterback issues as well. So I think this 1328 01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 1: receiver class will look here in five years and say, man, 1329 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:25,880 Speaker 1: this is one of the best classes of wide receivers 1330 01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:28,200 Speaker 1: we've seen in a long long time. And Ceedee Lamb 1331 01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,880 Speaker 1: is going to be a very special guy worthy of 1332 01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:33,840 Speaker 1: the eighty eight jersey. And that that's that's that's that's 1333 01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:35,760 Speaker 1: saying something in my opinion, when you say a guy 1334 01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:38,080 Speaker 1: it's worthy to where an eighty eight jersey, he is 1335 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:40,280 Speaker 1: he is. He's got that kind of potential. Man, do 1336 01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:42,200 Speaker 1: you me ask you a quick question. Okay, let's just 1337 01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:44,800 Speaker 1: say he balls out this year, and you know they 1338 01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:46,240 Speaker 1: say all right, mar you know we got our new 1339 01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:48,320 Speaker 1: number one. You know it's been real. Will let you slide? 1340 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:51,440 Speaker 1: Do you think he can do about himself? Or do 1341 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:53,200 Speaker 1: you think it'd be kind of like a Juju Smith's 1342 01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:56,600 Speaker 1: Suster situation where Ab left and then all the coverage 1343 01:03:56,600 --> 01:03:59,320 Speaker 1: went to Juju and he went dramatically downhill? Do you 1344 01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 1: think he can do it about something? From what I'm hearing, 1345 01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:04,000 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb, who is doing it by himself in training camp, 1346 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:08,960 Speaker 1: is looking like an absolute star. I agree, like, I agree. 1347 01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 1: I'm just throwing it out there. I agree, I agree. 1348 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:15,520 Speaker 1: So I'm okay with CD versus versus J. I'm okay 1349 01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:17,840 Speaker 1: agree with y'all. I'm just throwing a question. Now, what'd 1350 01:04:17,840 --> 01:04:21,720 Speaker 1: you think? Newly? Here? Here, here's a better perspective on that. 1351 01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:25,600 Speaker 1: For what you just said, I'm watching Ben Denucci throw 1352 01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:30,479 Speaker 1: touchdown passes and Cooper Rush and Garrett Gilbert, they're throwing 1353 01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:32,640 Speaker 1: them to Cede Lamb. Oh, I don't know what to do. 1354 01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:34,360 Speaker 1: I'll just throwing to eighty eight and he's coming up 1355 01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:37,440 Speaker 1: with some crazy catches and that's how these guys are 1356 01:04:37,440 --> 01:04:39,840 Speaker 1: actually winning some of these motile moments. So if he's 1357 01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:43,320 Speaker 1: doing that with those dudes. Imagine what he can do 1358 01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:47,760 Speaker 1: with Dak Prescott and over over, you know, seventeen football games. 1359 01:04:47,760 --> 01:04:50,440 Speaker 1: So I just really believe we're gonna look back and 1360 01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:53,160 Speaker 1: talk about how special some of these wide receivers were 1361 01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:55,840 Speaker 1: in that class of twenty twenty. And I think CD 1362 01:04:56,000 --> 01:04:57,400 Speaker 1: Lamb is gonna be right now. I'm telling you right now, 1363 01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:00,720 Speaker 1: between Jefferson I U CD Lamb, if you're in fantasy 1364 01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:03,480 Speaker 1: football draft, if you can get these guys, one or 1365 01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:05,440 Speaker 1: two of these guys on your football team, think you 1366 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:08,560 Speaker 1: feel really good because that second year leap they're gonna 1367 01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:10,240 Speaker 1: be able to make because they've had a training him. 1368 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:12,160 Speaker 1: I think that's also been a big thing too for 1369 01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:14,960 Speaker 1: CD lamp to be actually out there and to be 1370 01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:18,120 Speaker 1: able to be coaching, being meetings. The kid is taking 1371 01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:22,600 Speaker 1: a tremendous leap in his development. So the hype, the 1372 01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 1: hype is real. So many times I think guys who 1373 01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:28,760 Speaker 1: put the star in their helmet get over hyped, but 1374 01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:30,959 Speaker 1: there's no bull drive with this man. Speaking of the hype. 1375 01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:35,080 Speaker 1: Speaking of hype, how much Monday did Bendauci play pay hbo? Okay, 1376 01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 1: because he never looked so good then he did on 1377 01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:43,040 Speaker 1: that last episode. Okay, man, I said, Man, I was like, 1378 01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:45,439 Speaker 1: I really in my head was saying, was I wrong 1379 01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:48,760 Speaker 1: about the duchy? That's that's how good he looked on 1380 01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:54,480 Speaker 1: the show for you. He was running all around every corner, 1381 01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:57,160 Speaker 1: you know, game winning touchdown. They painted it with the 1382 01:05:57,280 --> 01:06:01,080 Speaker 1: chest with the music Chess Master. I was like, man, listen, 1383 01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:04,040 Speaker 1: was I wrong about forgot you one wrong? I'm just 1384 01:06:04,080 --> 01:06:06,920 Speaker 1: saying that wrong. That that's that's that's how that's how 1385 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:09,320 Speaker 1: editing can get you. That's editing can get you. A 1386 01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:13,160 Speaker 1: TV producer.
