I know that my photographer, 19 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: Noah Buller, was supposed to leave it one he got 20 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,839 Speaker 1: his flight got canceled.

Clarence Hill didn't get on a plane until seven. 22 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: Some other people had got delayed. I ended up being 23 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,479 Speaker 1: on a nine o'clock flight with Christie Scales and so ours. 24 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: The nine o'clock didn't lead to till ten forty five. 25 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: So it was yeah, I got in Minnesota one thirteen 26 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: in the morning. Are you talking about Oh I thought 27 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: you were talking about like you left at ten forty 28 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: five in a day, No mine. Mine had a nine 29 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: pm yeah, yeah, so it was yeah. So there were 30 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: people a lot more delayed than what we were so 31 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: in other Cowboy fans in general, So it was a 32 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: lot for Cowboy fans to get on up there in Minnesota. 33 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: But more importantly, Cooper Rush was there. Yeah, he was 34 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: in there. He was in attendance for sure, and Cooper 35 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: Rush with an outstanding memory and as an undrafted guy, 36 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: sure you can relate to the man. There's just some 37 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: moments that you probably have to be on the field 38 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,679 Speaker 1: and say look at me, and he's a fellow Matt guy. Yeah, 39 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 1: Central Michigan's own nation, right, and to see that happened, 40 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: I thought it was a really cool moment for him. Yeah, 41 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: it was definitely a cool moment for him going out there, 42 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: and he shocked a lot of people, including myself because 43 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: I know I picked the Cowboys the wind going into 44 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: the week, but that was with Dak Prescott behind the helms. 45 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: We had Cooper rushing here, and I'm thinking to myself, 46 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: here we go, it's gonna be another Danucci moment out there. 47 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: What the moment will seemed too big for him, The 48 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: lights will be too bright for him out there. But 49 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: I was extremely impressed on how he handled himself on 50 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 1: the field against a Minnesota defense. Out there. He looked cool, 51 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: calm and collected. And I'm not sure if that has 52 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: to do with Kelly Moore's play calling, knowing his strengths 53 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: and weaknesses out there, but the guy executed well. He 54 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: put the ball where it needed to be. He had 55 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: one interception out there on a bad It was a 56 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 1: bad pass, it was a bad read out there, he 57 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: threw it in between two safeties. But I love the 58 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 1: resilience that he showed coming back into that game, not 59 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: afraid to put it up in the air anymore, not 60 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: afraid to go deep anymore. He went right back at him, 61 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: and that's what you love about a quarterback. And he, 62 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: to me, solidified his role as that backup here in Dallas, 63 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: because if he would have went out there and let's 64 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: just say he stunk up the joint, we would have 65 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: been looking somewhere for trades. You know today, we'd have 66 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: been like, oh man, we gotta find somewhere, whether it's 67 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: you know, the guy in Chicago, somebody's got to come 68 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: down here. But Cooper Rush, he came to play and 69 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: showed that he belongs in this league. And you know, 70 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: I got give him a round of applause because I 71 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: was definitely one of the hardest critics of Cooper Rush 72 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: talking about Double G, this Double G Dad, so hey, 73 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: he definitely maybe swallow my words. He went out there 74 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: and performed well. I saw a picture of Garrett Gilbert 75 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: on Twitter. I saw that one. So that was me 76 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: because the first half I was like, man, Double G 77 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't have been out there like that. Double G wouldn't 78 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: have did that. But the resilience, it's like Cooper West 79 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: to coo out there and battle and just go forward. 80 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: And I mean he was putting that second half. He 81 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: put on a display out there, and he was definitely 82 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: one of the main reasons they brought home a w 83 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: I was talking to somebody in the press box at halftime, like, 84 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: all right, man, gotta make a trade. Gotta make a trade, 85 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: I said, And I said, I said, no said, first off, 86 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 1: who are you going to trade for that knows your offense? 87 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: Just like that Barry. You've played the league and you 88 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: understand everybody's schemes not different because everybody schemes out the same. 89 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: There's a lot of differences. So that was my first thought. 90 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,839 Speaker 1: You're trying to talk about trading for somebody who you know, 91 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: they don't know your scheme. The second thing, and I 92 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: told the person to media box, can we be fair. 93 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 1: This is a guy who threw three NFL passes whole career. Okay, 94 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: I said, there is an adjustment period. This is still 95 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: the NFL. I said, give the guy some time. That's 96 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: all I'm saying, Just give him some time. David Helmet 97 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys dot com. He tweeted in the first half, 98 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: sorry folks, this is over. Helmet was like, this is 99 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: he not gonna happen? At all, and where you give 100 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy, Kellen Moore and the team credit. They made 101 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: the adjustments at halftime and people were still right there 102 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: with him. You come out in the second half and boom, 103 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: there's that seventy four yard touchdown to Cedric Wilson, and 104 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: now you're back in the football game. You're right there, 105 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: it's tied, and you're feeling good. What Cooper Rush did 106 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: three hundred and twenty five yards in the air on 107 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: forty attempts for two touchdowns. They put it up that much. 108 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: They had faith in him. Two minutes, fifty one seconds 109 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: to go down sixteen thirteen, he takes Dallas down the field. 110 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 1: They win the game. This was some serious stones man, 111 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: and and I look at that for him and I 112 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: just say, good for you, Idu. I got to meet 113 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: his godfather before before the game. He had to rush 114 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: Jersey on. Yeah. I saw that. I took a picture 115 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: and tweeted out there. He tried not to give it away. 116 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: He did. He was proud, but when you're a reporter, 117 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: you know where, you know where to go with it, 118 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: and sometimes the lack of answers and he's like, I'm 119 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,799 Speaker 1: not trying to say anything like okay, so you knew 120 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: that he was going to to start. I was just 121 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: really happy for Russ. What he looked like to me, 122 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:23,039 Speaker 1: Barry was that rookie year in his preseason when you saw, hey, man, 123 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: this guy's got something here. He got That's what I saw. 124 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: And I talked to him at training camp about hey, 125 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: how do you get back into being that guy? And 126 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: I don't know whether it was because he had nothing 127 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: to lose or he just I don't know, but he 128 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: looked like that guy. He did he did out there, 129 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: and what was crazy to me was going into the 130 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: week or not going into this game. So probably like 131 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: Saturday or Sun of AB a little earlier on Sunday, 132 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy was talking about how there's no drawback when 133 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: it comes to the playbook, like when Cooper Russia is 134 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 1: out there, the whole playbook is wide open, and I 135 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: thought to myself, how you gotta be talking crazy? Just 136 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: this guy ain't got what it takes to be able 137 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: to have full command of this offense. But he was 138 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 1: able to go out there and do exactly what Dak 139 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: Prescott would have done out there at a little bit 140 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: lesser level. But he was very efficient out there. I mean, 141 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: he had the one interception, but besides that, he was 142 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: putting the ball where it needed to be. I mean, 143 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: outside of that that interception and that CD Lamb dropped past, 144 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: the guy was super efficient and he had a hell 145 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: of a day from from Cooper out there. I mean, 146 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: because there was a couple of times where it could 147 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: have been intercepted, but the ball just seemed to bounce 148 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: our way out there, and those are the type of 149 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: bounces and the lucky draws that you gotta have when 150 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: you're trying to make this long run. I mean, not 151 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: everything is going to be perfect, but the way he 152 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: was up was able to go out there deal the 153 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: football around. Amari Cooper having a hell of a day 154 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: out there. This is the first time I've seen him 155 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 1: show up in an away game since he's been here 156 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: in Dallas, and he went out there and he did 157 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: what he had to do. They took advantage of that 158 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: thin secondary with no Patrick Peterson. Harrison Smith's still the beast, 159 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: but they kind they kind of shot away from him 160 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: a little bit, and they could do that because the 161 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: two corners they had on the edge they just weren't 162 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: it and they knew that they could take advantage of that. 163 00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: Kudos to Kelly Moore as well. This guy seem to 164 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: be in his bag all year, no matter what the 165 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: situation is. He's attacking these defensive weaknesses Tampa Bay. We 166 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: saw the secondary. The next go around, we go against 167 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: the charges, we go to the run game. I mean, 168 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: this guy is in his bag. He knew what he 169 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: had coming into the game because Cooper Rush had took 170 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: the majority of the first team reps doing practice throughout 171 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: the week, so he knew what he had going into 172 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: this game, and he called a masterful game. How do 173 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: you you put Lia Collins at fullback next to McGovern 174 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: and then you got the wishbone back there. I mean, 175 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: some of the stuff he's drawing up, the creativity he 176 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: has right now is on another level. And I would 177 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,079 Speaker 1: not be surprised if somebody comes and poaches him next 178 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: year going into the offseason, because this guy right now, 179 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: he's coaching at another level, he's playing at another level. 180 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: I would definitely say at this point in time, Cowboy 181 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: fans be prepared to have a new offensive coordinator. Yeah, 182 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: without a doubt, man, And I wouldn't be surprised if 183 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: he's not on the shortlist for Minnesota because leaving Minnesota, 184 00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: the amount of people who wanted Mike zimmer On as 185 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: head coach, Kubiak the offensive coordinator gone, and Kirk Cousins 186 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: gone were just high. It was just so high. And 187 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: I was disappointed in Kirk. I was disappointed in Kirt. 188 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I wanted the Cowboys to win. But but 189 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: why I fire you. You know, he's been playing some 190 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: of the best ball of his career so far this season. 191 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: I mean, thirteen tubs, only two interception. She's taking care 192 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: of the football. But he just went out there and 193 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: became a checkdown Charlie. And I don't understand. I mean, 194 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 1: maybe it was what dan Quinn's defense is doing to people. 195 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: I'm not sure. But he went to check down Charlie 196 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 1: because there was a couple of examples on those boots. 197 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: They loved to run boots with Kirk Cousins, and they 198 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: ran a lot of them yesterday. But he had the 199 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: deeper over option available, whether it was feedling, whatever, whether 200 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: it was justin Jefferson, he had those options open, but 201 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: he decided to go to the checkdown to the fullback 202 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 1: or to the running back who surrounded by defensive players. 203 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: So I don't know if it was just the rush 204 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: that Randy Gregory and those boys were providing, or just 205 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins just just reverting back to Washington. Kirk Cousins, 206 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 1: but he did not look good yesterday. And I'll tell 207 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: you what this did a great job of doing. Hold 208 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: hold on, all right, go ahead, the defense the next 209 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: sege all right. They deserved their own, their old slights 210 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,719 Speaker 1: of the five for what they did. Kirk Cousins is 211 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: now eight and seventeen in primetime games in his career 212 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: age of seventeen. The lights are too big. Cooper Rush 213 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: is one and the oh. He turned out to five 214 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: or three pass attempts into a one and oh three 215 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: hundred yard performance out there and lowest primetime win percentage 216 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: since two thousand. Kirk Cousins is number one and three twenty, 217 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: followed by Eli Manning, Carson Palmer, and Jay Cutler minimum 218 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: twenty five stars. It's gotta be something, you know, in 219 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: the brand. There got to be something up top of that. 220 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: Because he was performing well in all his other games, 221 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 1: daytime games, it doesn't matter. He was performing, but when 222 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: you get to those primetime and those lights, it's got 223 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 1: to be something he's seeing all the reporters on the 224 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 1: edge or something he's seeing, you know, but she to 225 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: Foy and au him over there. It's got to be 226 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: something that he knows everybody's watching it, and he kind 227 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: of shells up. I don't get it, man, I don't know. 228 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 1: He was playing great ball so far this season, so 229 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 1: I didn't know that. The Minnesota they called him, they 230 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: called PTK. PTK was Primetime Kurt because they just he's 231 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: gonna just melt down. So they knew going into this 232 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 1: it was going to be one of them games. He's 233 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: the second highest paid quarterback the National Football League, making 234 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: thirty one million dollars this year. So many, so much 235 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 1: guarantee too, yeah, eighty all of it is Gary. Oh, 236 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: there's no some all eighty four meals Garing. He made 237 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: a hell of a deal. He is taking a bag 238 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: and to see a guy making nine hundred and twenty 239 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: thousand dollars, sixtieth highest paid quarterback in the game bouncing 240 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: before that, take the chances to go down the field 241 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 1: where Kirk Cousins didn't want at all. I'm telling you 242 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: the fans where were hot. A guy was doing his 243 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: podcast in the media box after the game, and he 244 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: was killing Kirk Cousins. He was just and you know, 245 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: people are typing their stories. You hear and you just 246 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: hear him killing him, and you could not sit up 247 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: here and say, well, that's unfair. It was legitimate. It's 248 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: legit because he look at these weapons he has on 249 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: the outside. He got one of the best duos in 250 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: the National Football League, Feeling and Jefferson and I know 251 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: we got you know, days on one side, Brown who 252 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: played well. But you can't tell me there was no 253 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 1: options to take deep with those guys. I mean, he 254 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: had plenty of opportunities to stretch the football field and 255 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: he chose to either check it down or throw it 256 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: out of bounds. Well, I mean in an intentional ground 257 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,959 Speaker 1: call that killed the whole team. That probably that probably 258 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 1: switched the whole on minute. It killed him on that one. 259 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 1: You just I mean, come on, Kurt, what are you 260 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: doing out there? I go back into where they went 261 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: to the NFC Championship game and lost and felt that 262 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: if they could upgrade from case Keenom and they paid 263 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: all that money for Kirk Cousins, that has been the 264 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: biggest sunken costs I've seen in the NFL in the 265 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: last three and a half four years. I would agree 266 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: with you, because I mean, they had the one playoff 267 00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:59,599 Speaker 1: run they be I think they beat the Saints in 268 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: a while card or something like that. But other than that, 269 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he's just been that Minneapolis. Yeah, and then 270 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: it was then they ended up losing the NCY Championship. 271 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,599 Speaker 1: But they their their premise was, Okay, we're just a 272 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: quarterback away. They thought they were the Rams. Like they 273 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: thought they were you know what I mean, we were 274 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: golf and staffing. You ain't bringing in staff, and this 275 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: thing has been it's just been a big letdown. And 276 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 1: now you've got Mike Zimmer, former Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator. 277 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: He's on year eight there. This is not a playoff team. 278 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: They're three and four football team. It's not. It's not. 279 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: And I don't think you can sell that fan base 280 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: on another year of Zimmer and Kirk much the same 281 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: way you couldn't sell Cowboy fans on year ten eleven 282 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: of Jason Garrett. They they had their field, they had enough, 283 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: and then if you look at this defense isn't the 284 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: same either. You know, Minnesota has been the past couple 285 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: of years, they've been relying on a very stingy defense 286 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: out there. Those guys are getting long in the tooth now. 287 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 1: I mean Kendricks, I think he's on year eight, maybe 288 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: Bars up there, Harrison Smith's already in his tenth year, 289 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 1: So they're getting older there. They can't rely on that 290 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: defense as much. Is I think that windows right there. Yeah, 291 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 1: and Green Bay's now running away with the division. So 292 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: now you're sitting here trying to find yourself in a 293 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: wildcard spot. Just start looking around the league and you 294 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: just say, Okay, it's gonna be hard to get these 295 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: spots because there's going to be a spot given to 296 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: the second place team in the NFC when exactly rams 297 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: A Cardinals are gonna get that. One of those teams 298 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: is getting it right there. So so it's just gonna 299 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: be hard. I mean, you're hard to get in. You're 300 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: just gonna have a tough time trying to figure out 301 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: how you can get in there. Now, the Saints are 302 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: definitely now in a different situation because Sean Payton has 303 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: confirmed that Jameis Winston has a torn acl Yeah, simmey 304 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: and ain't it man, I think that's one of those 305 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: guys like it was a spot duty deal where he 306 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: came in play performed well. But I just don't think 307 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: he can do that over to week week week basis. 308 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: Defenses are going to figure out how they can pick 309 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: apart Trevor Trevor Simmons. So that but but still Sean's 310 00:14:56,440 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: gonna be creative enough. Let's take some hill. Was he 311 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: just not? Is he injured or he just wasn't? Oh? 312 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: They just man, that's something man, I wish I was 313 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: getting his jacket seven million to be chilling. Ain't that? 314 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: But there's one more team if Tampa gets the you know, 315 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: I'm assuming Tampa's gonna win that division. They'll win until 316 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: the Saints are gonna be right there fighting to get 317 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: I would agree to get to. That's why I say 318 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: for your Minnesota, you're quickly finding yourself in a tough 319 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: spot in terms of trying to get one of these 320 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: wild cards. So the division race is pretty much done. 321 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: You're trying to get a wild card spot. And I 322 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: haven't looked at their schedule to see who they're playing 323 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: and how you know who they may be up against it. 324 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: So that's why I ultimately come back to Mike Zimmer's 325 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: in trouble. Yes, he's big. Like you said, if they don't, 326 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: if they don't come away with a record that's at 327 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: least over or five hundred, I can't see if them 328 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: bringing them back. I mean, this is just too much mediocrity, 329 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: and they put too much stock into this quarterback. I mean, 330 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: they thought this combo would get them at least, you know, 331 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: playoff caliber every single year. And after the first year 332 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 1: or two, I mean, it's been mediocrity and they don't don't. 333 00:15:58,440 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: Like you said, I don't think the fans are gonna 334 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: stand for Look the offense, alright, thirty five million dollars, 335 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: I mean thirty one million dollars. Kirk Cousins. Kirk Cousins 336 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: twenty three or thirty five, one hundred and eighty four 337 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: yards and a touchdown. Okay, that's not that's not gonna 338 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: cut it. Contrast that to Cooper Rush twenty four or 339 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: forty three, twenty five, two touchdowns and one interception. So 340 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: and by the way, Minnesota won the turnover battle. You 341 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: won the turnover battle two to nothing, and you simply 342 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: couldn't go anywhere because you were terrible on third down. 343 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 1: They were one for thirteen, one of thirteen by man 344 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,479 Speaker 1: on thirty. You can't win that way. It's just it's impossible. 345 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: You go out you win the turnover battle, which is 346 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: a big statistic on how you know who wins the 347 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: game or not. But if you're out there one for 348 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: thirteen on third down, you're not winning the money down, 349 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: you're not extending these drives, and you're just giving the 350 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: Cowboys more and more opportunities to win this game. If 351 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: that would have been this, it would have been a 352 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 1: blowout by halftime, two minutes and fifty one seconds to go, 353 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: you're one of thirteen on third downs and you have 354 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: a lead sixteen thirteen. So so while the Cowboys win 355 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: the game and go to six and one, if you're 356 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: if you're a Vikings player, you're really trying to ask you, so, 357 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: how did we go lose that football game? And that 358 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: is Those are the kinds of losses where you lose 359 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: the fans. And that's a good fan base that I 360 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 1: tell everybody, Man, if you're gonna go to an opposing game, 361 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 1: go up there. Yeah. I like playing in Minnesota. It 362 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: was like the world was against you, like it was. 363 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: It was definitely a good atmosphere of playing. They do 364 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: a good job. They care about that team. You got 365 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: the skull chat. Oh oh, I mean it's it's it's 366 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 1: definitely a live place. Yes, I mean it's different, man, 367 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 1: it's it's a whole different. And to see to see 368 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 1: that display and the way the fans were was interesting. 369 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: If you look at it, like what were they doing offensively? 370 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: Like if you look at the Cowboys, what was the 371 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: play exactly like we got we can spread things out 372 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: with getting thank you all these different we're getting our 373 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: playmakers the ball in space, whether it's bubble screens, quick slants, 374 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: anything like that. Minnesota, they're lining up in twelve personnel 375 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: play action, Let's see if we get hit him deep. 376 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: Play action. Let's see if we get him deep. When 377 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: the running game wasn't doing that much. The play actions 378 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: not gonna draw people up, so you're not gonna have 379 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: these big holes in the in the defense where you 380 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 1: can try to pick apart. It was just a bad 381 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: overall game plan and I don't I don't know where 382 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: they were thinking with that. You gotta be able to 383 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: get your playmakers the ball in space. You got two 384 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 1: of the best dealing and Jefferson they got a good 385 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: slot receiver. I forget his name right now, but they're 386 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: get a good slot receiver. They got Dalvin Cook out there. 387 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: Let him do some work one on one, get him 388 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: in space. I just I just didn't understand the game 389 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: playing at all from Minnesota. So you sound exactly like 390 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: a Minnesota Vikings saying yeah, because that's what they were 391 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 1: saying last night. They were ticked, they were upset. There's 392 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: talent here that's not being used. When why, I simply say, 393 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if if Mike Zimmer's going to get 394 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: an opportunity to come back. Let's take a break here 395 00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: and dive more into this Cowboys. We talked about them 396 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: being one of thirteen in terms of holding up the Vikings. 397 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 1: There was several guys out there on the field, in 398 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: my opinion, who you just looked at you had to 399 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: tip your cap. Obviously, Cooper Rush gets the spotlight because 400 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: he's the quarterback in the NFL's the quarterback league. But 401 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: there's some guys all that defense yesterday that you and 402 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,360 Speaker 1: I got we're gonna talk about next and how great 403 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: they were for the Cowboys in that twenty to sixteen win. 404 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 1: As the Cowboys have not lost since the opener to 405 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: Tampa Baby, this is the players by Hotels dot com 406 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,959 Speaker 1: or Dallas Cowboys dot Com.

I go back to doing a story 455 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: when Bill Priacas was here with the Cowboys and it 456 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: was Dak and Zeke's rookie year. They were they sold 457 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: out of the twenty ones in fours they sold out. 458 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 1: Then they were doing the two one four hurts. They 459 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: were gone and they just couldn't keep Cowboys gear in stock. 460 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: And the thing I also try to tell people, remember 461 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: this is an international team. Yeah, it ain't local, without 462 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 1: a doubt, it ain't just you know, it's the highest one. 463 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: It's high sports franchise, and in this valuable sports franchise 464 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: in the world. So yesterday, by the way, the players 465 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: not by whose dot com he is buried, Churches Cows, 466 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: Cowboys Safety, I'm new we scrugs a long time Cowboys broadcast. 467 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: Our other partner, Danny McCrae. He's its flight. Its flight 468 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: got delayed out there in Los Angeles, so he couldn't 469 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 1: get back in time.

And what 474 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 1: was interesting, most of the cowboy fans we met from 475 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: were from New Jersey taking over New York. They hated rivalry, 476 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: they taking over New York. Coming up, we met more 477 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: cowboy fans that were not from Texas there George Floyd World, 478 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: and there were it was a truckload of cowboy fans 479 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: at the George f travels.

I put it 482 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: up there with the Yankees. Oh you get it up. 483 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 1: They were like that. Okay, it's a different it's it's 484 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: at the Yankees Lakers level. Where where national treasures internationally? No, yeah, okay, 485 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: you know if you go to Italy, you'll see somebody 486 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: wear the Yankees hat. You know, you'll see. That's where 487 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys are at. And that's what I'm just going 488 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: back to my original point. Come Christmas time, if you 489 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: if you don't get it early, you're gonna have a 490 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 1: tough time getting it. It's gonna be hard. It's gonna 491 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: be tough. When the Cowboys get into this kind of role. 492 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 1: It's hard to get tickets to the games. If people 493 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: want the gear, they want to wear their Cowboys stuff around. Oh, 494 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,719 Speaker 1: those tickets are gonna sky rocket man. Wait till wait 495 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 1: till Arizona comes in town. I mean, a regular seat 496 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: might cast you seven. Crisis will be marked up one 497 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: for sure. So Cowboys six and one. I got to 498 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: dive back into the Cowboys defense. One of thirteen they 499 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 1: held Minnesota to on third downs. And we're talking about 500 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 1: a trio, okay, a triplet trio of of powerful guys 501 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: in terms of what Minnesota has. You know, Adam Feeling, Jefferson, 502 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: Jefferson Cook. That's a hack of a trio, right, Yeah, 503 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: they weren't getting off. Micah Parsons the rookie eleven total tackles, 504 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: ten solos, four tackles for loss. I looked over here 505 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: the first three, actually the first four leading tacklers for Minnesota, 506 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:26,719 Speaker 1: Harrison Smith, Xavier Woods, dance yone was at a good game. 507 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: Where do they all play in the secondary? That's how 508 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: you knew it was getting back. That's how if your 509 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 1: safeties are out there totaling a lot of tackles out there, 510 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: something ain't going right in the front seven. But with 511 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: our front seven. Let me tell you about Marcat Parsons. Man, 512 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: that is a full grown man right there. I'm in 513 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: a Cowboys uniform. He is a full grown man. And 514 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: when you go out there with the socks that he 515 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: had on. So those those type of socks not most 516 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 1: cats are wearing because they're just the superregular degulars. You know, 517 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: it's just the blue halfway up then you know by 518 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: the ankle it comes in. The White people don't wear those. 519 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: They're either doing like the long blues or long whites. 520 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 1: When you come out there and don't care about your 521 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,439 Speaker 1: swag like that and that type in uniform, you know 522 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: that guy means business. It's like back in the day 523 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: when guys used to come out there with the tape fingers. 524 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: That guy might not be the best cover guy, but 525 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 1: he's gonna come down and hit you. And that's what 526 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: Parsons brings to this defense. I mean, if you look 527 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,719 Speaker 1: at it, he's overwhelming offensive lineman that even think they 528 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: get to the second level and might have a shot 529 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 1: on him, he's either oh laying him or he's just 530 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 1: flinging him to the side. And when you see him 531 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: hit people at the point of attack at that line 532 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, they're not falling forward for extra leaky yardage. 533 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: Those guys are either getting stoned right there or they're 534 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: going backwards. This guy, I mean, he just stands out 535 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 1: and flashes. Each and every down you'll see an eleven 536 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: Jersey coming out of nowhere, whether it's chasing down a 537 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: guy or being there at the point of attack. This 538 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 1: guy is making an extremely, extremely big time impact for 539 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 1: this defense. And it doesn't matter what position you play, 540 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 1: but I'm glad they put him at middle linebacker, because 541 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,360 Speaker 1: we've seen these past couple of weeks. If you let 542 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 1: him marinate there and let him learn that position and 543 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,880 Speaker 1: get that position down, pad, he's just gonna get better 544 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 1: and better and better. I mean, he's understanding his run fits. 545 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 1: He's diagnosing these run fits, and he's beating his blockers 546 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 1: to the point of attack. And it's not like he's 547 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: you know, hammering when he should be spilling the guard 548 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: or you know, spilling the guard when he should be hammering. 549 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 1: He's hitting everything right, getting it back to his help. 550 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: And it's just a full grown man out there, and 551 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 1: he's making plays as a rookie that you don't see. 552 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 1: I mean, even Sean Lee, who was great as a rookie, 553 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 1: this guy is just he's looking like a full grown 554 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 1: man out there. And it's just to me, it's extremely 555 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,360 Speaker 1: impressive because as a safety, you get to see all 556 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 1: that in front of you go down and when your 557 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 1: safeties are in the back end, being able to just 558 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: worry about pass coverage if something leaks out maybe here 559 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 1: and there, that's when that safety job gets extremely easy. 560 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 1: So you got a guy in the middle at the 561 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: linebacker position that is holding things down and is acting 562 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: like a grown man out there, and he's playing. He's 563 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 1: playing great right now for the Dallas Cowboys, so very church. 564 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: I go back to the draft and when we were 565 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: talking about what the Cowboys should do with the first pick, 566 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 1: you and I were both on board taking a corner 567 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,400 Speaker 1: and taking the kid from Alabama who's in Denver, who 568 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 1: will see this week? Patrick's certain the second and Parsons 569 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 1: ends up being taken and overwhelmingly, i'd say Cowboy Nation 570 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: was lukewarm. Yeah, I would agree with that. And I 571 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: go back now and I think of where the problem was. 572 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: You just Michael Parson's linebacker, and he didn't play last 573 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: year either, So Michael Parson's linebacker, and what should have 574 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: been said, Michael Parsons. Pressure player. That's what it is, 575 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: a defensive weapon, pressure player. And we've spoken before on 576 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: the show and I brought up a junior. Say out, junior, say, 577 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: I brought pressure linebacker. But he just brought you a 578 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: lot of pressure that you had to know where I was. 579 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: And that's that's And I remember talking Will McClay and 580 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: we were trying to find a guy and I and 581 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 1: I brought up Pat Swilling and he said yes because 582 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 1: Pat Swilling number fifty six when he played with the 583 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints was a monster. Ricky Jackson got to 584 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame and got a lot of credit, 585 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: but Pat Swilling there was lt in a class by himself. 586 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: Then you started looking at that next group of dudes. 587 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: Pat Swilling was right in there in terms of the 588 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: kind of pressure that he brought. Who had to be 589 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: aware of Pat Swilling and Micah Parsons to me, is 590 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: fitting into that. He's not a lineback. That's just too 591 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 1: generic terms. Not many linebackers can bring this kind of pressure. 592 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: As much as Jalen Smith in Layton Banderesh have had 593 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: first good first contracts with the Colbums, they weren't the 594 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: kind of pressure player that Micah Parsons. They're just not many. 595 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: There's not many gays periods. That's like that right now. 596 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: I mean, the way this guy's jumping off the tape, 597 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: it's it's outstanding. And then you go back to last year, 598 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: we got exposed a lot at that second level when 599 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: we're talking about running backs come out of the backfield, 600 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: covering running backs out of the backfield tight ends. This 601 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,479 Speaker 1: guy has come here and slowly erased that I mean 602 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: we go out there and look all those checkdowns, all 603 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: those guys that were in open space that would make 604 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: my boy Jalen Smith or Lvee miss and get an 605 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: extra ten fifteen yards, that's getting erased by this guy. 606 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: He's one part. I mean, it doesn't matter who the 607 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: running back he is out there, Dalvin Cook, the other guy, 608 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: the had He is erasing all that and it's open 609 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: field tackling is extremely extremely impressive. Nice game by l 610 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: Layton Banderash. Yeah, he's playing solid as well. J Ron Curse, 611 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: give that guy contract, get him here now, because not 612 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: only is his play on the field outstanding, but he's 613 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: also a leader and you can see he's vocal on 614 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: that sideline getting those boys ready to play. So so Church, 615 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: help me understand this one here from the standpoint you're 616 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 1: j Ron Curse, You're You're on a good defense right now, 617 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: and this this is trending towards you're going to make 618 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: the playoffs and witness to be. So this means opportunities 619 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: for you in the free agent market. Oh yeah, how 620 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: much do you look at the bag versus the scheme, 621 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 1: because right now this is a scheme that they have 622 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: utilized Curs' skills highlighting which haven't really didn't happen for 623 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: him in Detroit, Minnesota, they're happening here. Yeah, So if 624 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: I'm if I'm curse, definitely a bag is the forefront 625 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: of my mind because if I mean, I could be 626 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: wrong about this, but I don't think he's yet to 627 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: get a super like a super deal as far as 628 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: contracts concerned. I mean, he's being basically working on like 629 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 1: one one year deals or bat minimum type deals. So 630 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: the money is definitely going to be at the forefront 631 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: of your mind. But what I will say is is 632 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: not always greener on the other side. You may get 633 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: the bag, you may have that that money to be 634 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: able to help out your family and all that other stuff. 635 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 1: But if you want to longevity and if you want 636 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 1: to be able to you know, maybe springboard your career 637 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 1: to something else, there's nothing better than the star. I'm 638 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 1: telling you right now, there's nothing better than this organization 639 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 1: in the NFL when you're talking about making money outside 640 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 1: of football, and they the scheme that you're in the 641 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 1: defense is playing extremely well. Now, dan Quinn, he might 642 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: get you know, poached off his job and he might 643 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: get a head job opportunity somewhere else. But right now, 644 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: his scheme and his system with Curse, it's working. It's 645 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: working unbelievably because he's manning him up on tight ends. 646 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 1: He has the length, he has the size and speed 647 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: to run with those guys. But he's also great at blitzing, 648 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: playing in the box versus the run, and he could 649 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: play deep as well. And with this type of system, 650 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: they run kind of a three safety rotation, so he's 651 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 1: not necessarily always going to be in the deep end 652 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: where he might get exposed, so he's always a round 653 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. They have a big nickel package 654 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: for him, so they're definitely highlighting his his qualities out there. 655 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: But I'm assure you that the money is going to 656 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: be at the front of his mind going into this 657 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: free agency.

We were only eight. 698 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: We were able to just rush four defensive lineman and 699 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 1: get home and get pressure on Kirk Cousins. And that 700 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 1: allowed our linebackers, our safeties to be out in courage 701 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: and help out on need the dynamic duo they had 702 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 1: on the outside.

I 705 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: mean he was going through double teams like a hot 706 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: night through butter. And when we get those guys back 707 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 1: Neville Gallimore d law on that outside Brynt Urban, Brynton Urban. 708 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 1: I mean it's we're getting we're getting healthy at the 709 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 1: right time to make a run here in neuis.

So type of 796 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 1: things starting when you when you're making not Super Bowl run, 797 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: you know, you get a dash of luck here, a 798 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: couple of injuries here, a trade there. It's starting to 799 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 1: work out. We're getting healthy at the right time. I 800 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 1: don't know. Movie So Denvers four and four they ended 801 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 1: up winning. Yesterday they ended up pulling it out Bridgewater, Denver, Denver. 802 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,879 Speaker 1: So the next two games or our home games, it's 803 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:26,240 Speaker 1: Denver then Atlanta. I think I see those as two doubs, 804 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 1: well even without you know, for if they want to 805 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 1: rest for a little bit more. So, yes, does does 806 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: Dak practice Scott played this weekend? We'll see does Tyrant 807 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 1: Smith play this weekend against Denver? The second straight game 808 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 1: where Tyrant went out. We spoke about it on the 809 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 1: show that while Collins is not starting, do not think 810 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,359 Speaker 1: that this is all just settled. So as Smith went 811 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 1: out in the game, tying Seki, which surprised me, went 812 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: to left tackle and there were issues. Yeah, there were 813 00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:59,959 Speaker 1: definitely issues over there. They worked on him a little, 814 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 1: but that's the same thing that happened two weeks ago 815 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 1: when he came in New England. When Tid Smith went 816 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 1: out a little bit, you know, they start to realize 817 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 1: who he is. That's the week spot they're gonna go 818 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 1: at him. So I would not be surprised going forward 819 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 1: if us just say next week Tyren Smith has to 820 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 1: take out a week you know, ankle injury didn't heal 821 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 1: up as good as he thought it would be, so 822 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna miss one more week. I would not be 823 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 1: surprised if they slid either Likeell Collins, who's a natural 824 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 1: left so that i'd be you know, easier for him 825 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 1: on that left side, or Terrence Steel over there and 826 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 1: put Collins on the right side. Either or I think 827 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 1: they have a good matchup with those tackles on that outside, 828 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: because if we know beforehand, if thy Smith would have 829 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: went down, it would be just like losing Dak Prescott. 830 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 1: But oh, here we go. I mean it's gonna happen next. 831 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 1: We're just gonna get the floodgates are just gonna open. 832 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 1: But with a surprising play of Terren Steel out there, 833 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 1: and hopefully, you know, collins conditioning is good and he 834 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 1: can go back out there and get those quality reps 835 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,320 Speaker 1: this week. I might. I don't see this as that 836 00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,839 Speaker 1: big of an issue as it has been in years past, 837 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 1: So depending on how they practice their reps this week, 838 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 1: I would have imagine be Terrance still going to left 839 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:08,319 Speaker 1: tackle and Colin's it right to prepare if Tyrant Smith 840 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 1: doesn't play. When I was doing my broadcast after the 841 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,800 Speaker 1: game in Minnesota, I was watching guys come out. Smith 842 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:19,320 Speaker 1: walked out without a boot, so he was limping, but 843 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: he walked out and didn't have it have a boot 844 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 1: on or anything. Digs also was dealing with an ankle injury. 845 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 1: He was fine, ended up saying that he was he 846 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,760 Speaker 1: was cool after the game. So that's something to think about. 847 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,359 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup may be ready to go against Denver this week. 848 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 1: What role do you see him havn't because it's not like, 849 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 1: like said Wilson, you know, it's not like he's just 850 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: a gadget guy, like he's just a guy that comes 851 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,800 Speaker 1: in and does reverses and trick passes or nothing like 852 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: That's he's elevated his game to the point where he 853 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: is a solid number three on this team. I mean, 854 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:51,800 Speaker 1: we saw what he was able to do versus that 855 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 1: cover two or that two man, split the gate, go 856 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 1: up the gut. I love Gallup as a receiver, but 857 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 1: I don't know if he has that gas to be 858 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: able to get into the end zone on that play. Now, 859 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting to see what they do with 860 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,920 Speaker 1: this situation, because said Wilson, to me, has played some 861 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: of the best ball of his young career so far. 862 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:10,880 Speaker 1: And it's just not a It hasn't just been gadgets, 863 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: all right. This guy's made some spectacular plays. We go 864 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 1: back two weeks ago that fourth and fourth he saved 865 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:18,319 Speaker 1: the game against the Patriots with an unbelievable catch out there. 866 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,239 Speaker 1: So this guy can do many things for this Dallas 867 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense. And to be honest, I feel like he's 868 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,880 Speaker 1: a better run after the catch guy than Gallup is. 869 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: Gallup may have him on the deep ball situation, but 870 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 1: other than that, I see these two is very similar, 871 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,239 Speaker 1: and said Wilson, just being a better run after the 872 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,359 Speaker 1: catch type of guy. So to me, I don't, I don't. 873 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 1: I wouldn't just throw Gallop in there, like all right, 874 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 1: you're you're you're a bona fide guy, said Wilson. You 875 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: take a seat number four. I would slowly get him 876 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 1: in there, like how they didn't know Ah Brown and 877 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 1: how they had him in there, you know, on the 878 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 1: couple interances. I would slowly get Gallop in there and 879 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 1: ingretiate himself and then you know, if he gets it going, 880 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,399 Speaker 1: then he gets it going. But I wouldn't force things. 881 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,800 Speaker 1: I wouldn't force things like they did with the Lyle situation. 882 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 1: They didn't force Lyo back in there because ter still 883 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 1: was playing some great ball. Same thing with said Wilson. 884 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 1: I wouldn't just force it in there to try to 885 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: throw off the functionary or nothing like that. Gallops a 886 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 1: hell of a player. I'm sure he'll get his reps 887 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,360 Speaker 1: and get his balls thrown to him during the season, 888 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 1: But right now, I think you work come in slowly. 889 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 1: Michael Gallop is a guy we all like. Yeah, both 890 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,359 Speaker 1: guys are going to be free agents, and I've heard 891 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 1: some people say, well pay twelve pay Michael Gallop twelve 892 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 1: million dollars and some people say, let Cooper go. I 893 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 1: definitely wouldn't go with the second one. But if you 894 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:38,320 Speaker 1: don't understand what Amari Cooper brings professionally in leadership, then 895 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 1: I'm sorry you don't truly understand how locker rooms were 896 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 1: now not at all. There's a lot of substance to 897 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 1: what Amari Cooper brings, and you pay the twenty million 898 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 1: dollars next year, in my opinion, I would. I think 899 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,720 Speaker 1: he's definitely worth it. And if you're choosing between Wilson 900 00:44:55,760 --> 00:45:00,319 Speaker 1: and Gallop, think on your surface, you said out it's 901 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 1: a better player. But this isn't so much about the 902 00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 1: better players as much as you're talking about what fit 903 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:07,759 Speaker 1: and money you have. There's there's definitely there's a lot 904 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,279 Speaker 1: of contexts that goes into that. There is. And if 905 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 1: Gallup is looking for a contract where he wants ten, twelve, thirteen, 906 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 1: fourteen million dollars, which is you know, that's fine. I 907 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:18,960 Speaker 1: think he'll get that too somewhere, then it's not going 908 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 1: to be with it when you can bring said Wilson 909 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 1: back for a substantially lower amount of money and the 910 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 1: play wouldn't be that much of a drop I mean, 911 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,759 Speaker 1: I'd say it's more of a you know, Gallup may 912 00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:32,719 Speaker 1: have him by maybe a couple of points here. Let's 913 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 1: just say Gallups of nine and which I'm not saying 914 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,600 Speaker 1: he's at nine out of ten receiver, but let's just 915 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 1: say he's at nine, and then said Wilson might be 916 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 1: you know, seven and a half eight. It's not that 917 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: far over a drop off. A lot of times it's complimentary. 918 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 1: How do you compliment the offense? And then at the 919 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 1: same time, where you're talking about a salary cap where 920 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 1: issues are definitely there, you have to find a complimentary 921 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 1: salary to go with that. So ultimately it means you 922 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 1: let good players go. Yeah, and they look, if you 923 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:57,840 Speaker 1: save money on Gallup, you can put that towards a 924 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 1: lot of the defensive guys or one year contracts right 925 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 1: now and there and the book. A couple of those 926 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 1: guys like we mentioned Curse Kaz Hooker, Neil they've been 927 00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 1: playing well. Randy Gregory. Randy Gregory at the worst, he's 928 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 1: gonna get franchise. So you've got so Michael Gallup almost 929 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 1: becomes a luxury that you may not be able to 930 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,800 Speaker 1: make fit long term. When you're talking about the money. 931 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:21,840 Speaker 1: And if you're Michael Gallup, you're not gonna try and 932 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:24,279 Speaker 1: sit around here to take a hometown discut. You gotta 933 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 1: go get the bag the first deal. You gotta. You 934 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 1: gotta gill you can't. You gotta strike byle The iron's hot. 935 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 1: He's played good, so he'll deserve a nice pay day. 936 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,439 Speaker 1: We'll dive more into that. Said Wilson. Three catches eighty 937 00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:37,920 Speaker 1: four yards in a touchdown. Congratulations to him. Fantastic job 938 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:41,880 Speaker 1: by Mike McCarthy, the head coach, because he continually talks 939 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:45,839 Speaker 1: about how you hey, he takes everybody. Yeah, he's right. 940 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:49,279 Speaker 1: And you just saw last night in Minnesota another where 941 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 1: you see young guys playing. You see where people are 942 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 1: asked to come in here and fill some roles and 943 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 1: they did it. So, Michael, I love what Mike McCarthy's 944 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 1: doing as far as letting his coaches do their job. 945 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he doesn't seem like and I could be wrong, 946 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 1: but he doesn't seem like a coach that's overbearing saying, oh, 947 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:05,719 Speaker 1: you know, this is not the way I want my 948 00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,320 Speaker 1: offense run. It's my way or the highway. He seems 949 00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 1: to let Kelly Moore do his thing, let Dan Quinn 950 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,319 Speaker 1: do his thing, and he might not get a lot 951 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,319 Speaker 1: of credit, but if they keep winning the way they are, 952 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 1: it's gonna fall to him. Eventually at the end of 953 00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 1: the day, they'll say you're you know, you're the head 954 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:20,920 Speaker 1: coach and it's gonna be your team and you get 955 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 1: the way, lass record and everything else. All right, Barry 956 00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,840 Speaker 1: church Man, good stuff. We'll get back after tomorrow.
