11
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: but but everybody else is here in account it for

12
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,160
Speaker 1: you have meetings and stuff, right yeah? Well I don't

13
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 1: so so you can just do whatever you want to do,

14
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 1: right yeah? Who what HR says about what we should with?

15
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: I ran into the director of HR. He was good

16
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: in the cafeteria and she goes, you fight, You fight, Dave.

17
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess you was that was good? Perfect

18
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: If you looked like Obi wan Kenobi to her? No,

19
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: I guess you weren't wearing the hood at that point. No,

20
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: which would be strange as to why you didn't come

21
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: get on the air and say it's a good time

22
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,680
Speaker 1: to put on the hood. I'm Dave Hoodie today, like

23
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 1: Darth Hoodie, Bill Belichick. I'm channeling my inner except it's yeah,

24
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,399
Speaker 1: so strange. Victory Monday. It is victory Monday. Cowboys get

25
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: a big win yesterday, and according to a couple of

26
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: people on in this group, it was a needed win.

27
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 1: If they didn't win that the season was basically over.

28
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,759
Speaker 1: I think that's what you said. He I never said

29
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: the season would be over if they lost this game,

30
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: but I thought it was a significant game. It was

31
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: a significant game. Cowboys win thirty three nineteen in what

32
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: was ball accounts like a monthsoon, Like the rain was

33
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: really there was a ton of rain. And I can't

34
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: remember a game. I'm sure there's been some. I can't

35
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: remember a game that I've been at where there was

36
00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,639
Speaker 1: as much rain from start to finish, Like it started

37
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: in the beginn and it was just kind of a

38
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: drizzle and it picked up and when he picked up,

39
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: it didn't seem to ever stop. It seemed like it

40
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: was just a constant rain. You heard Dak talk about

41
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: it after the game, talk about how the balls got

42
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,679
Speaker 1: heavier and heavier, and it just it was a tough

43
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: Those were tough conditions to play it. Yeah, Like it

44
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: sucked for I mean for them we were drying the

45
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: press box, but I was. I actually I wanted to

46
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: go out. None of y'all. Y'all were all smart enough

47
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: not to join me, but I wanted to go out

48
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: at the end, just to kind of get a feel

49
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: for what it was like out there. How long were

50
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 1: you went on the plane, Like the whole way back wet. Yeah.

51
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: When I changed like to go to bed, I was

52
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 1: still kind of drying off. Like it was just like

53
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 1: soaking wet, just NonStop from about late second quarter until

54
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: we got on the plane. It did not stop. Yeah.

55
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: Like one of the reporters asked Dak last night, He's like,

56
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: can you please explain how does it feel to be

57
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: playing under the rain so that fans can really get

58
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: an idea what it's like. Well, just go outside when

59
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: it's raining and throw the ball and see how it feels.

60
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: Go find out for yourself. Yeah. So yeah, they've wanted

61
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: to find out for himself to see what it was

62
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: like out there, right, And he did, and you figured

63
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 1: out that it was not fun right. Basically, yeah, it

64
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: was nice in the rainy and cold. But let's get

65
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: into some of the more some more of the more

66
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: interesting points of the game. And I think it has

67
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: to start with Ezekiel Elliott. This guy is just playing

68
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 1: phenomenal football right now. And I think it all starts

69
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: with the fact that that offensive line is playing phenomenal

70
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: football right now. Once they started kind of getting their

71
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: thing together, they started to see these holes open up.

72
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: And when when Zeke sees holes and he gets through

73
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: them and he makes big runs for them. Yesterday he

74
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: has thirty three carries, one hundred and fifty yards four

75
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: point five average, two touchdowns. Talk about how he performed, Nick,

76
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: what you what'd you see out there? Well? I just

77
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: thought it was one of those games where you know,

78
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: with the rain the way it was, you need somebody

79
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: to just grind out some yards, and I thought he

80
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: did that. I thought it was nothing flash, no touchdowns

81
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: runs like we saw two weeks before in San Francisco

82
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: or a week before in San Francisco. But but this

83
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,559
Speaker 1: was just kind of more of your Nfcees Cowboys Redskins

84
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: type of game. And I thought he really did U

85
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: he played well when the offense. It was gonna be

86
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 1: tough to move the ball. It is tougher to throw it,

87
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 1: especially in the red zone. And I thought he did

88
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: an excellent job for them. This. Uh. The interesting thing

89
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 1: about all of this when it comes to Ezequiel Elliott

90
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 1: is as of today, the whole narrative changes. Even though

91
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 1: he had such a great game this week and has

92
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 1: been playing well the last couple of weeks, everything could

93
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: change today. Will go to our legal expert here, David Hellman,

94
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: who wears a hoodie now tell us, like what the

95
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 1: hood don't like that? Don't like the hood I made

96
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: a popular but hey, what's happening today? What is the

97
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 1: layout of what's happening in a day? With regard to

98
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott in his court case, Zeke did not fly

99
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: back with the team last night because he is going

100
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 1: to his hearing with Judge Catherine Failure fail in the

101
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 1: second District of New York today. It's supposed to start

102
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 1: about four pm. I don't think this is one like

103
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: La two weeks ago. Was unique because that was just

104
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: a trro. It wasn't an injunction like that. Hearing took

105
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: what an hour and we got a ruling later that day.

106
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 1: I'm not under the impression that's going to happen today.

107
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a hearing today, and then we will

108
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: hear what's going to happen sometime this week. I think

109
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,840
Speaker 1: I'll be surprised if we actually get a ruling tonight.

110
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna come later. But the judge, you know,

111
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 1: we had Daniel Wallack on our show a couple weeks ago.

112
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: He laid all this out. That's happening today. The judge

113
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: that was supposed to hear that, who wasn't there at

114
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 1: the time, is going to hear this situation and decide

115
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 1: whether or not to grant him an injunction. There are

116
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 1: steps he can take if he loses this hearing, he

117
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 1: can appeal again, but I believe he have to do

118
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: that while suspended. So this week we're going to find

119
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: out whether probably he plays for the rest of the

120
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: season or he continues this fight while he's serving his suspension. Yeah,

121
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: and the injunction, just to be clear, the way I

122
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: understand it is, what they're basically going to be hearing

123
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 1: today is the argument that Zeke should be able to

124
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: play while this makes its way right through the court

125
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: while the court cases is proceeding. The NFL is obviously

126
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: saying that they don't want him playing during that time.

127
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: His representatives are saying there is undo I mean, there

128
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: is a harm that cannot be undone to Zeke if

129
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: he has to miss time and then has proven proven

130
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: to be wins his case in the end. So the

131
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: judge has to decide whether there's enough merit in this

132
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 1: case that Zeke has enough of a case that he

133
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: should be able to play, and that there is going

134
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,559
Speaker 1: to be unreparable harm done to him if he doesn't

135
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: get to play in the meantime. So a lot to

136
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: be able to figure out. But David sounds like that's

137
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 1: not a decision and necessarily come today. It's a decision.

138
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 1: It may come at some point this week, you would presume,

139
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: and then we'd find out whether he can play. At

140
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: this point, I'm saying myself up for failure by trying

141
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: to predict it. But I bet I'm like, this also

142
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like something that's going to drag out until

143
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: Friday at close time, Like I'm I think like by

144
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: Wednesday evening we'll know. That's just sort of my gut

145
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: and the reality is the judge I assume could make

146
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: a bench decision there. But I don't I agree with you.

147
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: I don't think it does happen, but I think it's

148
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: probably gonna be a little bit for her deliberate. I'm

149
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 1: like I said, the last hearing for the tro took

150
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: like fifty minutes. I'm under the impression this one's going

151
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: to take a couple like a few hours. I would

152
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: be again, I'd be surprised if we hear anything definitive tonight. Okay,

153
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: So I just don't think it'll go past Tuesday. I mean,

154
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: I know that the NFL work, I mean, the court systems,

155
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: they don't care about the NFL and all that I

156
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: know about. But I just I just don't feel like

157
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: it'll well. Okay, if it does go past Tuesday, I

158
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: think the I think that he probably will play. I mean,

159
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 1: now I don't. I don't know about that, just because

160
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: the NFL. One of the things that the NFL got

161
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: criticized about was for them to now claim that there

162
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: would be irreparable harm to them if Ezechuel is allowed

163
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: to play. One of the arguments people brought up was, well,

164
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: you were going to let him finish out a week

165
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: and say hey, you can go ahead and play this

166
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,239
Speaker 1: week if the decision came later in the week. And

167
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: in the last instance when when when the ruling was

168
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: was shot down, they said he's just suspended immediately because

169
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: they didn't by a week. I hear you, But I

170
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: just I have a feeling like the NFL is just

171
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: for purposes of how it looks. I think no matter

172
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: when it happens, they're probably going to say this is

173
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: immediate I think with how contentious it's been and how

174
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: I mean ze, you know, you could argue with everything

175
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 1: that played out before the season, like they were blindsided

176
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: and they didn't blah blah blah blah blah whatever, like

177
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 1: you know, you had short notice that this was going

178
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: to happen. But I think everybody knows that this has

179
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: been a possibility basically since the season started. And if

180
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: he doesn't get the ruling that he wants, I bet

181
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 1: he's immediate out gone. Yeah, So this is gonna be interesting.

182
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: We'll see what all plays out today. It'll start at

183
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: four pm, and then we'll see how long it takes

184
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 1: four the judge to then make a decision. Whatever that

185
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,959
Speaker 1: decision is just not this shouldn't be groundbreaking if you've

186
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 1: watched the last three or so Cowboy games. But for

187
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: all the gnashing of teeth we've been doing about Zeke

188
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 1: and like, hi, has he lost the step and he

189
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 1: doesn't look the same, he is currently on pace for

190
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred and seventy seven yards and fourteen touchdowns. Yep.

191
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: So he's right back on track where he was, and

192
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: I think we can all agree it would not be

193
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,079
Speaker 1: great for this team's fortunes if he's not available. Yeah,

194
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: saw in graphic last night to sit through. I think

195
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 1: it was twenty two games. I think that's what he's

196
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: played at this point. There have been there have been

197
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: only three guys that he's second as far as the

198
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: number of yards that he's had in the first twenty

199
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: two games of his career. But it was touchdowns? Was

200
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: it touchdowns? Twenty one touchdowns in twenty two games with

201
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: and then one above him was Berry? Okay, then that

202
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 1: wasn't the ground. Look Sorry, the graphic I was looking

203
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: to had three guys on it. The first guy was Dickerson,

204
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: Zeke was second. The third guy was Earl Campbell. So

205
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: it's like we're talking about two different pretty that's pretty good.

206
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 1: He's company. He's in really really good company, really good

207
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: comp out. We were talking about how he if he

208
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: would have hit that one hundred and fifty yard mark,

209
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: yeah on Friday, right on the note, right on the mark,

210
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: right there, And it's surprising. We were looking at the

211
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 1: stats and it's surprising to me when I looked at it,

212
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, he got that many yards, Like it's insane

213
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: because you don't what was the longest one? He had

214
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 1: sixteen fourteen yards? Yeah, but from the very beginning, little

215
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: by little like but it's unnoticeable just because they're not

216
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: big place, you know, so when you look at the

217
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: end result, you're like, oh wow, he actually did really

218
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: really good. Yeah, in from the very beginning of the game,

219
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: i mean he's hitting him for five six seven yards pop.

220
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: I mean every every time he got the ball and

221
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: then he have he'd have one that was like no

222
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 1: game on one game. But then he hit fourteen right,

223
00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: So very beginning of the game, you're you're forgetting the

224
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 1: first place. I mean that was a four yard run

225
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: to be fair, but it wasn't. Well he made it

226
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 1: up with a touchdown. Yeah, it was a funnel, but

227
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: he got four yards. He definitely made it up. And

228
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,839
Speaker 1: that's pretty much what my column was about, was the

229
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: defense giving up a big play on the first drive

230
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: that they got in after, you know, a real drive,

231
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: and Nugent's first field goal was a miss and his

232
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 1: first carry was a fumble, but all three of them,

233
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: I mean, when you look at those two guys, and

234
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: then the defense as a whole won the game for him.

235
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: So it wasn't really how it started, was definitely how

236
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: it finished. Yeah, they gave up a field goal, touchdown,

237
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: field goal first three drives and then didn't give up

238
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 1: another score, and so I think it was too something

239
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: or left in the fourth quarter. It was. I think

240
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 1: it was a really really dominating performance by the defense.

241
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: But we'll get to that ahead. So I just think,

242
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: I mean, let's be let's be fair about it. It

243
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 1: doesn't matter because it never matters when it happens to

244
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. But that was the most banged up football

245
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 1: team I've ever seen, maybe ever, and got worse during

246
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 1: and it got worse. Yeah, I've just never seen anything

247
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: like what the Redskins are going through right now on

248
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: their offensive line and then just you know, even their

249
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 1: blocking tight ends and it was a mess for them. Uh,

250
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: you don't feel sorry for him, just the way it is.

251
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 1: But I don't feel sorry. You take they said, you

252
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: don't feel okay, though I heard no, no, you don't

253
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 1: feel sorry. Okay, but but you you know it's you

254
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: just remember, okay, that you can you can acknowledge that

255
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 1: both things can be true, Like so few people want

256
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 1: to admit that in talking football. But it can be

257
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: true that the Redskins are ridiculously banged up. It can

258
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: also be true that it doesn't matter, and it doesn't matter.

259
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: It's just that I don't think that Crawford, Irving, and

260
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: Lawrence are going to be teammates in the Pro Bowl.

261
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 1: I mean, just because of that. But even though even

262
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 1: though I was about to say that way, those three,

263
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, those three won't make it all to

264
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl as it don't know. I'm I'm waiting

265
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: two of them might. I don't know. I mean, I'm waiting. Hold,

266
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop on those guys.

267
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 1: But I did the DeMarcus Lawrence is on pace for

268
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: twenty four sexs. David Irving is on pace for twenty

269
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: three games five sacks. Even Tyrone Crawford's on pace for nine.

270
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,359
Speaker 1: He's got four through seven, and I mean, good goodness, gracious,

271
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: did he ever look fantastic? What maybe for the first time?

272
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: Oh wow, special delivery. I'm in the middle of a

273
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: show here. I mean, okay, nice, well, we ruined, not ruined.

274
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: I mean there are breaks. You can get water during breaks.

275
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: Thanks Shannon, thank you. Get out. All right, let's selah,

276
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: Let's get back to some talk. Let's talk a little

277
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 1: bit about Dak. Dak yesterday had he was fourteen of

278
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 1: twenty two for sixty four with a sixty four percent

279
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: completion percentage, one hundred and forty three yards, zero touchdowns,

280
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: zero interceptions, eighty two point two quarterback rating. I personally

281
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: believe he did exactly what he needed to do in

282
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: those kinds of conditions for them to have a win.

283
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: I've seen some people who said he didn't play very well.

284
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: What do you guys think about how Dak played yesterday?

285
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 1: I think that you know, they won the game. That's

286
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: in that situation. That's all you can really do. It's

287
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: an ugly game. It's an ugly game, so why would

288
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: it be a beautiful performance from from the quarterback. I mean,

289
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 1: it's just now. The one thing that strikes me kind

290
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,199
Speaker 1: of oddly, I guess, is that Cousins talked about what

291
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: they did all week long to try to prepare and

292
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: Dak and then said that they did nothing to prepare

293
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 1: yep um, but they didn't really have any other than Zeke.

294
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: They didn't have any any turnovers or anything like that. Um,

295
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: you know, handling the ball. Now, he didn't throw the

296
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: ball well. I don't know if Cousins wasn't that great

297
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: either throwing it so for like two two or six. Yeah, yeah,

298
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: but that's what they do. I mean, they're running back,

299
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 1: had what twenty yards so well, and that didn't really

300
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: make mistakes. It's not not what one that I can remember,

301
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 1: And I would say that's all you can really ask

302
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: for under that condition and that type of situation. I mean,

303
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: there were some balls that weren't completely on target, but again,

304
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: and that kind of situation, I don't expect ball a

305
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: lot of balls to be on target. I mean that

306
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 1: that kind of game is a game where you're not

307
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 1: going to be able to throw the ball as precisely

308
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: as you normally do. It's just that's just the fact

309
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: of the batter. If you think Dak played poorly, you're

310
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: either stupid or you don't people I'm telling you right now,

311
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: or you don't understand what the rain was like last night.

312
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: Those are that's probably a good Those are the two options.

313
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 1: Like you you're dumb, or you saw it on TV

314
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: and you're like, it's not raining that hard, But it

315
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: really was. And I actually made it a point to

316
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 1: come here early and have breakfast and had some conversations

317
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: about because you know, Dak doesn't give great answers about

318
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 1: this stuff because he's Dak. I was like, at some

319
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 1: point in that game, you kind of realized that you

320
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: had to change the way that that y'all wanted to

321
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 1: do this thing. And they're like, yeah, I mean, you know,

322
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: it gets to a point where the rain's fallen that

323
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: hard and the balls that saggy. You see Dak start

324
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 1: missing some throws that you know he wouldn't miss in

325
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 1: normal conditions, and you're like, well, yeah, and you know,

326
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: we gotta lead. What are we doing here. Let's just

327
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 1: let's just get out of here and not put ourselves

328
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: in any bad situations. And that's exactly what they did.

329
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: Dak didn't make any mistakes. He added, you know the

330
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 1: element of the run game that he's had and had

331
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: a nice ten yard run that to pick up a

332
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: first a crucial first down. Actually, I went back and

333
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 1: looked at it too. He completed five passes for thirty

334
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: eight yards in the second half. Three of those five

335
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 1: were third down conversions on crucial drives. He picked up

336
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: a third and three to Cole Beasley on an eventual

337
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: field goal drive. He picked up a third and seven

338
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: to Ryan Switzer or a third and six to Ryan

339
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: Switzer on a seven yard pass on another field goal drive.

340
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: And he completed a third and five to deaz on

341
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 1: the drive that let him run the clock all the

342
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: way down to one minute, so when he had to

343
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 1: have it, he still had it. And otherwise, why wouldn't

344
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: you do anything but lean on your running game in

345
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 1: a situation like that. I talk built for that. Yeah,

346
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: I'd talked to a guy, one of the players after

347
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: the game, and I won't say who it is, but

348
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: this future Hall of Famer said that he thought that

349
00:16:55,560 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: it's not Orlando. Sorry, it was a future hide in

350
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: and not talking him. Jeff swam. Nice nice diving attempt there.

351
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:10,120
Speaker 1: Brendon Carr man, I'll tell you what. Hey, were you going?

352
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: I want to hear this story. I feel like Jason

353
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 1: Witten just said, it's not anymore. That's not football anymore.

354
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 1: It rings like that, that's not football, that's not what

355
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: that's not you know what we practice all week long.

356
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 1: It's just it all goes out the window. He was like,

357
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 1: you know how many red zone opportunities I was going

358
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: to have in this game? And like it just changes everything.

359
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 1: So even Bryce Butler was saying, how there's a play

360
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,439
Speaker 1: they put in for him. He runs onto the field,

361
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,880
Speaker 1: he goes in motion, he goes into the corner. The

362
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: ball is supposed to go to him. He goes, what happens,

363
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: I won't run the route. I am wide open. I'm

364
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: sitting there by myself going hey, Dak hey, and he

365
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 1: goes yeah. He goes just like, hey, I'm hoping over here. Hey.

366
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 1: It's like it passes for me and that goes into

367
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: dead was like, what's that? But that He's like, they

368
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: That's why I'm in the game. So, I mean the

369
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,360
Speaker 1: point is as everything goes out the window, yeah, when

370
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: that happens, yeah, and well, but the great thing is,

371
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 1: you know you can argue about these things till you're

372
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: blue in the face. We have we're very unfortunate to have.

373
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 1: We we know what it would have looked like if

374
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 1: it hadn't rained, because you saw the first quarter and

375
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: a half of the game. They zipped right down the field.

376
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: Dak was Dak got like five receivers involved on the

377
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 1: first possession. He threw it to Whitney, threw it to Swain,

378
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: he threw it to Daz, he threw it to Terrence.

379
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: Terrence was set up. Looked like Terrence was going to

380
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,640
Speaker 1: have the best day of his season. And then like, yeah,

381
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: like you said, it all goes out the window. But

382
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 1: I will say this, we also saw on the other

383
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: side of the ball too, maybe what could have sure, Yeah,

384
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,719
Speaker 1: that's a great They hit a couple of those. They

385
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 1: hit that deep ball to the crowder, and I was like, Wow,

386
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 1: this is this is gonna be? Is this what the

387
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 1: day is gonna be? Like? I mean, that was a

388
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: game where it was destined for, you know, thirty forty

389
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 1: points of boat teams until the rain started. That's a

390
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 1: great point. And going back, you know, I don't yeah,

391
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: I don't want to name names, but conversations I have

392
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 1: with people here is like, you know, by that point,

393
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: by the time it really started raining, we had a lead,

394
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 1: and we knew that they were going to have to

395
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: throw in those conditions, which isn't good for anybody because

396
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: they can't run. That's the problem. They can't run. Yeah,

397
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: they only had what forty nine yards rushing overall? Yeah,

398
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: three point three yards per carry? Yeah? All right, sorry, god,

399
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 1: no good, It's just you're right. Maybe it is a

400
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 1: little fortuitous because this team is built to handle that,

401
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: and the Washington Redskins are not cloud at all. All right,

402
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna take our first break when we come back.

403
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 1: I want to dive into this defense, which, although the

404
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,159
Speaker 1: rain was the rain, they did play I think what

405
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 1: may have been one of their better games of a

406
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: season against a really good offense. We'll talk about when

451
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: Welcome back. It's the second segment show lock Ins WBC

452
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 1: Mortgage Studios. At the start, we're talking about the Cowboys

453
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 1: big win, they win thirty three nineteen over the Washington Redskins,

454
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: and we've talked a lot about the offense. Now let's

455
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 1: talk about this defense. This is the second game in

456
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 1: the row where they've had three turnovers, which I think

457
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 1: is probably the biggest stat line for this defense because

458
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 1: up until last week before the game against San Francisco,

459
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,120
Speaker 1: we were talking about that's the thing that they needed

460
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: to do more than anything else, get some turnovers. They've

461
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,919
Speaker 1: gotten three turnos in both of the last two games.

462
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,439
Speaker 1: Why are you looking like that? Like no, what I

463
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 1: start seeing they look on your face like not even

464
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 1: that you not? I just I'm they got three turnovers.

465
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: Was great, They played great, but they broke They broke

466
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 1: my heart because because like the two dudes that I

467
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 1: wanted to see make plays, Taco and Jalen had a

468
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: shot at one like back to back to back, right,

469
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: and they both broke my heart. Like I thought that

470
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: was gonna be it for Taco, Like, Okay, that's a

471
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 1: tough play for a defensive end to make. I don't

472
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 1: know what he was doing back there though, he I

473
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 1: mean they dropped and drops sometimes. Yeah, and then and

474
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 1: then Jalen has a shot and to me, you know

475
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 1: this and that would have been two weeks in a

476
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: row where he has this amazing play and he couldn't

477
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 1: even did the swipe and everything, and then they took

478
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 1: it and he just broke my heart. But they did

479
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 1: play really well. They did play well the defense. They

480
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: got four sacks. Irving had two, Crawford had one, Lawrence

481
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 1: had one. Uh, they had um you know, and that's

482
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 1: that's crazy that they didn't give one to Scandrick. I

483
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,120
Speaker 1: guess because the ball hit Yeah, that's you know, Scandrid

484
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: comes off the edge and then you know Cousins is

485
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 1: going to throw it. He's about to throw it. I

486
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 1: mean to me, if you're about to throw that the sack, Yeah,

487
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 1: I don't understand that. Yeah, I don't either. But he

488
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,239
Speaker 1: had a really good game to Orlando, did I had

489
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 1: a really good Um. You look at just everything they

490
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: were able to do yesterday and all the defensive players

491
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 1: that that played, well, who do you think stood out

492
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: the most of those defensive players? Nick Wow? Um, it's

493
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 1: it's a three way tie for sure for me. But

494
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 1: I on the roundtable that we did Friday, I said,

495
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: you know, I think Irving will have success. I think

496
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 1: Lawrence will have success. Crawford needs to also come in

497
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: there and play really well too. You get three guys

498
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: doing well, So I'm gonna say Crawford, I mean, I

499
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 1: thought he did a really nice job. Had it had

500
00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 1: a sack, forced the fumble and uh field goal. That

501
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: was to me, that was the play of the game,

502
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: no doubt. That was the play of the game they

503
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 1: needed at at that moment, and they got it, and

504
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 1: they got him in position. They scored two plays later

505
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: in point it was huge, a ten point swing, which

506
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: down nine and you go up one, just like that.

507
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 1: I have no beef with that. Ty That was probably

508
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,199
Speaker 1: the best game of Tyrone Crawford's career, and certainly his

509
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 1: best game since he signed that extension. Like I mean, amazing,

510
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 1: But if all they do is block the field goal,

511
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 1: it's maybe not that great. What do you mean? They

512
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: just start right there, landed somewhere around the Dallas fifteen,

513
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 1: and Orlando Scandrick picked it up and hauled butt to

514
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,120
Speaker 1: the Washington two or wherever he wound up getting tackled

515
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 1: for your for a cornerback for a thirty year old cornerback.

516
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: Eight tackles, two tackles for loss, that block fuel goal recovery,

517
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna give him credit for a sack because

518
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: he got into one tackle for loss and a sac

519
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 1: oh is uh oh damn? Well yeah one one still better?

520
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 1: Okay one and one is still better than that. Still

521
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 1: be a great sta. Yeah, he was outstanding, I thought.

522
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: I asked him, I was like, was that the best

523
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 1: game of your career? He obviously disagreed with me this game?

524
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 1: Did he say, did he did he throw out a game?

525
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:14,160
Speaker 1: He did? I don't say. No, he had one ready

526
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: in the chamber for me, But I don't. I think

527
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: I disagree with him. I think this was maybe the

528
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,719
Speaker 1: best game he's ever played. Someone on the plane and

529
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 1: in the locker room told me, just look at how

530
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 1: many times he's targeted. It was scantry both times. I

531
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 1: said that. But his point is that he doesn't get

532
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,679
Speaker 1: targeted a whole lot. When he does, you know, he's

533
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,879
Speaker 1: there's no separation, and he makes play. One of my

534
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: five plays that don't forget about is the first series

535
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 1: of the game. After the fumble it's third and five,

536
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,880
Speaker 1: there's a crossing route over the middle to Grant makes

537
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 1: the tackle immediately they killed kick a field goal. That

538
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: no momentum. Really, it was kind of and you tweeted

539
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 1: that day it was a win. That does a win

540
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 1: when you give up a fumble and they kick a

541
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: field goal and it's only three nothing and they answered

542
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 1: it just like that. So but I thought that was

543
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 1: one of the key plays. I mean, he was, he

544
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: really was. It was probably his best game. Yeah, and

545
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: real quick, don't forget eighty six yards. Oh yeah, he

546
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: didn't make it to the end zone. You know, he's

547
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: a cornerback that at the end of the drive. That

548
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: was a drive you know, the Redskins had and they're

549
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 1: moving the ball and he's chasing receivers and then to

550
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: go in the run eighty six yards like that, I

551
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 1: mean that, Yeah, he probably would like to have scored,

552
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: but oh he oh he wanted. That's so bad. Like

553
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 1: that's literally like the thing that has the reason Orlando

554
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: Scandrick is not like a two or three time pro

555
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: bowler is because he doesn't have those types of plays

556
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 1: on his resume where he gets to the end zone

557
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: or has the long return and that time, I mean,

558
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: you know, I think the one that the one that

559
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 1: really stands out as he picked off Jay Cutler to

560
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 1: seal the Bears game in twenty fourteen, I think, and

561
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 1: the Bears were coming back and he caught he got

562
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: him in the end zone. But like other than that,

563
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 1: it's just not a thing that happens for him very often.

564
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: So like I know, he wanted to score right there

565
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 1: so bad, but still, I mean, like I said earlier,

566
00:26:55,440 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is not one for sweeping grand stage mints

567
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 1: and juicy quotes, and he was like, yeah, that was

568
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: the biggest player in the whole game and the turning point,

569
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 1: like they did it all for us. They put us

570
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: right there inside the ten yard line, swung the momentum

571
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 1: ten points swing. I mean, it's absolutely huge. You know,

572
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 1: if you go back and watch the block, there's two

573
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,120
Speaker 1: hands right there. For the first one, of course, it's

574
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: Crawford and you know he's right in line and the

575
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: ball is going to probably go through the upright, so

576
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 1: he blocks it. But Irving's hand is right behind it,

577
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: and if you watch it, it goes kind of through

578
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:32,440
Speaker 1: Crawford into Irving like his pinky but once it hits

579
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: Irving's hand, it goes sideways. Now I'm not saying the

580
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 1: ball would have gone in. I don't know how much

581
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 1: you know, momentum it was gonna have to carry. But

582
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: I think both of them affected the play. And you know,

583
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: Irving's like, I got a little little piece of that too,

584
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: and they Crawford they're gonna get. You don't get half

585
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 1: a block. You know, Crawford got the block, but I

586
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: thought Irving also had you know, Cowboys pr is trying

587
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: to give it to both of them. I don't know

588
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: if that's going to hold up with the league, but

589
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 1: don't be like when when the teams stats come out

590
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 1: this week, don't be surprised if they both get credit

591
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: for it. The one thing I will say, Nick, is

592
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,360
Speaker 1: if you said that, if you said that, it kind

593
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,400
Speaker 1: of did change the trajectory once Irving hit it and Dave,

594
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: you're saying that the biggest part of that play was

595
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,239
Speaker 1: the return. Maybe you don't get the return, but for

596
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 1: Irving's yeah, hit on it as well, So then it

597
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 1: makes that that block way more important than just Crawford's block.

598
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 1: Maybe you don't get the field goal, but in this

599
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 1: sense is maybe you don't get to return without irving right.

600
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: And you know how we just talked about Scandrick being

601
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,360
Speaker 1: at the end of the drive and that's probably why

602
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: I didn't score, because he was tired. That also affected

603
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: where he was lined up because a lot of times

604
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 1: he will come off the edge and dive and miss it.

605
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 1: If he doesn't if he's not a dog tired there,

606
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: he's not standing back there to pick up the ball.

607
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 1: But we had a good view of it and I thought,

608
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: you know, just keep going to the right, you're gonna

609
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 1: get twenty five yards. But when he cut left, you

610
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: can kind of see that wall and you're like, oh, yeah,

611
00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: I'm glad you mentioned that too, by the way, because

612
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: I mean, he didn't block it. But you gotta give

613
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 1: Scandrick some credit for that mixed missed extra point that

614
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 1: the Redskins had as well. He can't. I mean, just

615
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 1: like he always says, he came off the side. I

616
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 1: think Orlando gave himself credit for it if nobody else did, so, uh,

617
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: you know they what I think he hooked it left

618
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 1: or he hooked it. He hooked it. I mean he

619
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: missed the next point and Scandrick was coming free on

620
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: it so affected the kicker there on a play that

621
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,239
Speaker 1: obviously Byron Jones got that pick six, But I mean

622
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 1: the difference between defending a full seven point lead verse

623
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 1: six is huge. I mean, it was a fun plane

624
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 1: ride for them on the way back, and Scandrick was

625
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 1: up and down the aisle and talking to us, and

626
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: you know, like a lot of players were and um,

627
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,959
Speaker 1: you know some of them weren't sitting down at the end.

628
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 1: They're gonna get in trouble buzz they were. You know

629
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 1: when when that flight attend that got on and said

630
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 1: you'll sit down, Like I was great. You know do

631
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 1: you know like I think we're grown. I think you

632
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: know who was the one person that was standing up?

633
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 1: I mean Jason, No, it can't never mind Taco. Yeah,

634
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 1: Brandon Carr and people play born Orlando Scandrey take your pick, right.

635
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: We need to get some updated you get guys that

636
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 1: that are here. Uh no, this is classic, Garrett, That's

637
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 1: why we have it. There there's Taco just standing up.

638
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, really, like, sit down, been here long enough

639
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: to be like, okay, don't worry about it. But no,

640
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: I mean maybe he's a stand up defensive end now

641
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: because he was diving back there, you know, playing linebacker.

642
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: That would have What would that have done? We argued

643
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 1: that the other day about you know, if he just

644
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 1: makes one play, we still if e one makes a

645
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 1: diving interception like that, honestly, no, I mean I would

646
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 1: have been pumped in. It would have been a great play.

647
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: But no, it's not like fans suddenly think he's awesome

648
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: because he gets like a fluke interception dropping. They would

649
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 1: have they would have been like, he's still haven't gotten sack?

650
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 1: Like do what do what we've drafted you to do? Yeah,

651
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 1: but you know, be an athlete and make a play,

652
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 1: and that would would have helped. It definitely would have helped.

653
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 1: Don't all right, let's let's do talk a little bit

654
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 1: though about special teams. I thought special teams yesterday was

655
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 1: again difference makers. We talked we kind of lumped it

656
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: into defense, but really it's the special teams that made

657
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 1: the block that got the return, and quite frankly, Mike

658
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 1: Nugent played I thought as well as good of a

659
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 1: game as you can expect from a guy who's coming

660
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 1: in who was on the street. I think I heard

661
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 1: I think Taylor was telling me last week he was

662
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,640
Speaker 1: on last Sunday, he was with his daughter at the zoo,

663
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 1: And this week he's at an NFL game and torrential

664
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 1: downpours and he's being expected to kick forty nine yard

665
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 1: field goals. Only that last team that worked him out

666
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: before the Cowboys with the Redskins. Yeah, it's awesome. I

667
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: love the way that type of stuff works out. And

668
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 1: the I mean, yeah, you know, obviously, like you signed

669
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,719
Speaker 1: this guy on Tuesday. Of course he's going to come

670
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 1: in and have to kick five field goals in the

671
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,560
Speaker 1: trenial downpour. Of course, of course the Cowboys aren't gonna

672
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: win twenty eight to you know, seventeen and all he

673
00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: has to worry about his extra points. Like that's just

674
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: not the way, although that might have been a little

675
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 1: tougher for him, knowing how last year win. Maybe hey

676
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 1: he was three for three. He was three for three year, right,

677
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: But it's just like I swear, that's just the way

678
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 1: the NFL works. Is like when you get signed on Tuesday,

679
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: you have to you know, the ball finds you. I

680
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: guess I don't know, but I thought he was awesome,

681
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 1: especially since his first his first kick was a miss

682
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 1: from from was a forty nine from a forgivable distance

683
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: for sure, but you're still like, oh, okay, Dan, where

684
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: are you okay? So in the press box, I looked

685
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: over him like Robin Dave. I was like, you think

686
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: he makes this? And both of them no, no, And

687
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if you wait in

688
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 1: but I know. I said he's gonna hook it to

689
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 1: the left, and Mickey was like, he's gonna hook it

690
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 1: to the left. So nobody there there was no like

691
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: confidence there that he was gonna make that in which

692
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: he actually he was good in pregame. He hit like

693
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: he hit seven of eight going out and they said

694
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 1: he hit a fifty three yarder. He hit fifty eight yarder.

695
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: He hit through thirty one, thirty four, thirty seven, forty

696
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 1: one four, He missed from forty eight, re kicked it

697
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: and made it hit a fifty three. I think he

698
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 1: missed a couple from fifty eight. Oh yeah, yeah he did.

699
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 1: He didn't miss that thing. He was good in pregame,

700
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 1: but I just thinking he had the leg part. But

701
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 1: what Mickey was saying was that he tends to to

702
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 1: hook left, and so whenever he's on the left, hash

703
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 1: that tends to be a problem for him because he

704
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 1: already hooks left. So that's what Mickey said. Did Mickey

705
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 1: go watch like cut ups and tell you that's what

706
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: That's what Mickey was saying there. He's either making that

707
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,959
Speaker 1: up or somebody maybe maybe somebody told him that, But

708
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: like if he went home, I hope that rich Bisaccia

709
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 1: told him that, because if he went home on like Friday,

710
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: I was just watching cut ups off Mike Nugent went

711
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 1: the Bengals Like that's too much. You don't need to

712
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: do that, man, Hey, he's doing his job. That's you know,

713
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: there's doing your job, and then there's having Like I'm

714
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: sure there's been some moments where you knew something, something

715
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 1: kind of was in the back of your brain about

716
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: a particular player and you're like, I'm gonna do the

717
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: research to figure this out. Yeah, and so you spent

718
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: countless number of hours doing that just to figure it out. Yeah.

719
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 1: Usually it's for like Dak or somebody quarterback, not the

720
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,719
Speaker 1: kicker who's gonna be here for three weeks. Yeah, but

721
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 1: he also scored twelve points or no more than that.

722
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 1: He had with fourteen points. Um, you know, last two weeks,

723
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 1: you've talked about three. You said three turnovers but from

724
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: the defense, but really it's been two from the defense

725
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 1: and one from special teams in each of the last two.

726
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: I mean, Keith Smith goes down on the kickoff and

727
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 1: forces a fumble, it leads to a field goal of

728
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,720
Speaker 1: the week before the game just you know changed early

729
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:35,279
Speaker 1: when Cavan Frasier knocked the ball out and no yes

730
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,239
Speaker 1: and Xavier Woods picked it up. So special teams has

731
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: has played a big part there. I was, I was wondering,

732
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 1: I know, he missed the field goal and on a

733
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 1: Dave you do the grades for our flashback, and I

734
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 1: was like, man, I really hope that that's an a

735
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 1: for a special team. Yeah no, I'm well, and you know,

736
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 1: to be perfectly fair, I mean, I don't, I don't know.

737
00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 1: I guess I'm I'm gonna chalk it up to the

738
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: rain for Ryan Swa because he that was a weird

739
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 1: day for him. I don't know if I call it,

740
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 1: you know, and I know what you I assume what

741
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: you're talking about is when he need he knelt yet

742
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 1: he let one bounce from the thirty to the ten.

743
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: He like, just in general, it was not I thought

744
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 1: a very good night for him. I honestly think that

745
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,439
Speaker 1: in that situation, I wasn't able to see the play

746
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 1: fully because we were on our way down to the field. Um,

747
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,839
Speaker 1: but I didn't even see the neil. I just yeah,

748
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,000
Speaker 1: it was it was like the third or fourth quarter.

749
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 1: They're about to get the ball on like the thirty three,

750
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:32,799
Speaker 1: and he let it bounce and it went down to

751
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,919
Speaker 1: the nine and completely maybe it was right before the half.

752
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 1: I don't know. My thought was, I didn't know, like

753
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 1: I didn't know what return unit was on the field.

754
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,839
Speaker 1: Was it Were they expecting an onside kick? And if

755
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:45,799
Speaker 1: they if they were expecting an onside kick, that means

756
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,280
Speaker 1: he had no blockers. And in that kind of weather,

757
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: my thought is, yes, feel the ball so it doesn't

758
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: go any farther and just go down, just take a knee.

759
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 1: That's fine, We'll take the ball at that point. To me,

760
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,320
Speaker 1: that's the right decision, right. Did you see that? Though?

761
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:02,840
Speaker 1: The reaction of his teammates and the coaches, I mean nope,

762
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,399
Speaker 1: nobody understood what that was about. And then go back

763
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 1: and listen to it. Troy Aikman was like, what is

764
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 1: going on there? I mean like, and I was watching

765
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 1: it and I was just like, what are you doing? Like,

766
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: I get it. You know, you don't think that Whitton

767
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 1: and Hannah are gonna be, you know, blocking for you.

768
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 1: But I mean I think you're down. I mean you're

769
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,359
Speaker 1: up six, You're you're gonna be starting at your own,

770
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 1: what fifteen yard line? But with no blocker? Do you

771
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 1: want him really running and risking the chance that two

772
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,799
Speaker 1: guys hit him, ball comes loose. You're only only up

773
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,760
Speaker 1: by six, Yeah, that could be a game changing type scenario.

774
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:37,920
Speaker 1: I'd much rather just say, take the ball when you

775
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: get it, and let's see if nothing else, take some

776
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:42,879
Speaker 1: time off the clock. Right Rears the guy that has

777
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 1: me pretty upset right now, very upset. Oh yeah you

778
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 1: know that one, right, Yeah, I get it. Okay, yes,

779
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 1: all right, But the point is he, honestly, for a

780
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,799
Speaker 1: guy that's as cocky as he is, he is pretty cocky.

781
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,359
Speaker 1: And when you see when you're like that, you better

782
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 1: live up to it and have a reason to back

783
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 1: up your cockiness. Right. Well, with that being said, the

784
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 1: fact that how he played special teams, it upsets me

785
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 1: when he's playing offense and you see him in motion

786
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 1: and you see him so active and running around the field,

787
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 1: blah blah blah. And then when he got when he

788
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,959
Speaker 1: has the chance to have the ball in his hand,

789
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 1: he doesn't do anything. He doesn't apply that same kind

790
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 1: of effort as to when he doesn't even have the

791
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,240
Speaker 1: ball in his hands. But are we confusing effort with results?

792
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 1: Like it's one thing to say when he gets the

793
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 1: ball in his hands, he doesn't end up making any plays.

794
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if i'd call it effort though, right

795
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 1: I would. Well, I don't like to question guys effort levels.

796
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the NFL. If you don't, if

797
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 1: you're not. I just feel like he loses his confidence

798
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:53,360
Speaker 1: when he has the ball in his hands. He doesn't

799
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 1: react the same way. Obviously, and again that's not me

800
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 1: playing in there. I'm sure it's a whole different feel

801
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:03,839
Speaker 1: and obviously no idea what it's like. But from what

802
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,880
Speaker 1: I've seen so far is it just seems like, okay,

803
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 1: when he gets the opportunity to have the ball in

804
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 1: his hands, he doesn't actually do anything. When when he

805
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 1: was when he fumbled against the Rams a few weeks ago,

806
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:18,799
Speaker 1: changed that whole game. He comes back and says, you

807
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,720
Speaker 1: know that's not going to change me I'm still gonna

808
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 1: do what I do and all that. But he did.

809
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 1: But I think to your point, he didn't really play

810
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 1: like that yesterday. Now was if the rain was a factor,

811
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 1: maybe so, But there was times when it's like, you know,

812
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: catch the ball, and he didn't because he'd rather he

813
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,840
Speaker 1: wasn't confident that he could catch it. And you know,

814
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,359
Speaker 1: we'll see if that happens again. If it happens when

815
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 1: it's a bright sunny day in San Francisco, then we

816
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 1: have an issue problem. Yeah, but he's probably getting yelled

817
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 1: out in his head about don't don't make a mistake here,

818
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: and he's playing like that. But you know, I think,

819
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,359
Speaker 1: and I think this is part of the issue. When

820
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,799
Speaker 1: you get somebody that everybody's talking about on draft day, um,

821
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: then people create these expectations in their minds of what

822
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: he's going to be immediately, and looking at the way

823
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 1: the rookies played last year, you think, oh, well, this

824
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 1: guy's going to contribute immediately. That doesn't mean he's a

825
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: bad player, because he's right now not making plays and

826
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 1: I wouldn't question his effort. I just think right now,

827
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, in return game, he hasn't been able

828
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,320
Speaker 1: to really show you much as far as his abilities

829
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 1: to make plays, Now, maybe that means he can't do it.

830
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: Maybe it means he's just gonna take a little while

831
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: for him to develop into playing in the NFL and

832
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: being able to really make those yea. And I think

833
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 1: the cockiness has a factor in it, at least for me.

834
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 1: I'm just like, Okay, if you're playing like this, quit

835
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: being cocky. Come on, learn from Zeke a little bit.

836
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 1: Zeke has, you know, calm down a little. I'm saying down,

837
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 1: and here's here's the thing. And I think I think

838
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: you're right. You know, you draft a guy in the

839
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 1: first four rounds to be you know, you talk about

840
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: him like replacing Dunbar and all this stuff, and the

841
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: expectations get pushed up. I'm not asking you to make plays.

842
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 1: I don't judge him that way. I really don't. I don't.

843
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,120
Speaker 1: I'm not worried by you know, I don't think he's

844
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 1: a bust. I'm not worried by the type of impact

845
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,840
Speaker 1: he's making. I do expect you to catch the punt

846
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,120
Speaker 1: and save the offense twenty five yards of fuel position

847
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 1: on a rainy day when you know it's hard to

848
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 1: move the ball. I'm not asking you to break it

849
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 1: for a touchdown. I'm just asking you to catch it.

850
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 1: That's really all I want. And it wasn't happening for him. Yes,

851
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:22,320
Speaker 1: it was just like I said, I've never done that before.

852
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: I'm sure the rain plays a factor. I get all that,

853
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 1: but just there he had two or three decisions where

854
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 1: I was just like, I've never seen somebody do that.

855
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 1: What's going on? At about four in the morning, I'm

856
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: still trying to think about going to sleep, and I

857
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:39,719
Speaker 1: thought about that play and I thought I should get up,

858
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: go back to my computer, change my five point five

859
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: plays story because I left one out and I felt

860
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 1: really bad for it. But the play where the penalty

861
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,320
Speaker 1: that changed that. When the ball was rolled out he

862
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:55,000
Speaker 1: didn't catch it. It rolls down to like the thirteen

863
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: yard line, and then there's a penalty. They make him

864
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,800
Speaker 1: rekick and they get the ball. It's thirty yards a

865
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,319
Speaker 1: field position. They go down and get a field goal.

866
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: It was really upset that I didn't put that in

867
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,280
Speaker 1: the five place. You and Nicky both just need to

868
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 1: go to bed. I feel like like I went I

869
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 1: got home and went straight to bed, and your bed

870
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 1: about two I watched the whole game again. No, oh,

871
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 1: come on, no, come in and do that on Monday

872
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:21,719
Speaker 1: with broad est, Like that's what I do. That's the

873
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: difference though, I mean, that's just I don't come in earlier.

874
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 1: I get to do it at night, or I got

875
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 1: here at nine twenty six. I mean it's all the same. Yeah,

876
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 1: and you have stats and I don't. But I watched

877
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:34,239
Speaker 1: the game the last thing, I mean, the last thing

878
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:35,840
Speaker 1: I want to do. Yeah, I got in bed at

879
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:37,800
Speaker 1: about two and I didn't want to think about football

880
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 1: for like at least a few hours. All right, let's

928
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,800
Speaker 1: final segment of the great we're talking about the Cowboys

929
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 1: big win versus the Washington Redskins. They moved four and

930
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 1: three on the season. Right now, The interesting part is,

931
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,839
Speaker 1: although they've played well these last two weeks, Cowboys still

932
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,359
Speaker 1: are not as of this week, still are not in

933
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,239
Speaker 1: the top six teams in the NFC. They still got

934
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 1: a little ways to go, just one game out from

935
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: from those wildcard spots. Two wildcard teams with better records

936
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 1: right now, wild cards right now, or whoever's in the

937
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 1: second in the West, And yes, I looked it up.

938
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: Last night's probably the Panther was the South. Yeah, I

939
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 1: think it was Panthers the North. No, Green Bay second

940
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 1: in North, they're four and three, same as the cow

941
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:33,960
Speaker 1: would be the Panthers. And whoever's second in the West

942
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,520
Speaker 1: train right, And so the Cowboys one game out of

943
00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:38,840
Speaker 1: the out of that part of out of the wildcart

944
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,920
Speaker 1: wildcard teams at this point. But the good part is

945
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:45,319
Speaker 1: that the season so much in front of them. All

946
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 1: these teams that are right there in that mixture are

947
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,319
Speaker 1: all kind of on the Cowboys schedule going down straight.

948
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:54,360
Speaker 1: You got Atlanta, You've got Seattle, UM, They've got obviously

949
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 1: the division games left, you got two games against Philly.

950
00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 1: They got enough games that they can that they can

951
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: ser certainly put themselves right in position to maybe even

952
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,400
Speaker 1: win the division. They're not out of this thing yet

953
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 1: with almost half of the season, don't well, I mean,

954
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,960
Speaker 1: you know this isn't college football where you need style points.

955
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 1: I mean, they've won four games. I don't believe any

956
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,400
Speaker 1: of the four or against the team with a winning record,

957
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 1: but you know, nope, Wow, But you have a chance

958
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:20,880
Speaker 1: to change that because I have a good film. The

959
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 1: Chiefs will have a winning record when they come to town,

960
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,840
Speaker 1: uh this week. So you know, Denver tonight, right, And

961
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 1: you know, it doesn't matter you play who you play.

962
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 1: And sometimes I've always thought that that's kind of a

963
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 1: stupid stat especially early on, because you know, if it

964
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:39,240
Speaker 1: wasn't for you beating them, they might have a winning record.

965
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:42,120
Speaker 1: I mean, you're contributing to that. So um. But I

966
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,239
Speaker 1: what my point to that is is that do we

967
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 1: think this team is really good? Well we'll see. I

968
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:50,240
Speaker 1: mean they've lost to your team, the Rams, who Rams

969
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 1: now are looking pretty good. They're like you said, they

970
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,960
Speaker 1: get Philly twice these next three games. I mean, this

971
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,719
Speaker 1: probably the toughest stretch that anybody has. Chiefs at home

972
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:03,279
Speaker 1: at Atlanta, Eagle at home. I mean, it's good luck, quick,

973
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 1: good teams. Quick note for all the woe is Me

974
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,399
Speaker 1: type of Cowboy fans. This will be the second week

975
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:11,040
Speaker 1: in a row that Dallas gets an opponent on short rest.

976
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 1: Redskins and Chiefs both played Monday night the week before

977
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,759
Speaker 1: they played the Cowboys. So you know, I don't think

978
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 1: the league's out to screw you. I said that Robs

979
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: happened last night. Rob said, do you think the whole

980
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 1: Chief's offensive lineing is gonna get hurt? Yeah? I doubt it.

981
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,279
Speaker 1: It ain't just about risk, it's about injuries. To me,

982
00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,479
Speaker 1: that that, to me, was a story of that game

983
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 1: that in the rain was that was the storyline. But

984
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:35,040
Speaker 1: they played a division team, you know, on the road,

985
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:39,200
Speaker 1: and the Eagles Redskins. I mean that's a rivalry as well.

986
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 1: And you know what, the Chiefs are the same thing.

987
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 1: They're gonna go up and there at home. But they

988
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 1: faced Denver and you know, I'm sure that that's probably

989
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:52,239
Speaker 1: a real physical game as well. So is the Redskins

990
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,920
Speaker 1: went into the Eagles game with injuries on the offensive line.

991
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,319
Speaker 1: The guys that were playing went into the game hurt

992
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:00,279
Speaker 1: and then got hurt again. So it was like they

993
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 1: just had everything just went wrong for them. And I

994
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 1: don't know if you expect the same thing out of

995
00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 1: Kansas City, but it is one of those things where

996
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:08,279
Speaker 1: a short week, short week, to me, is way more

997
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:11,960
Speaker 1: about recuperation and injuries than it is about just being tired.

998
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,359
Speaker 1: Oh yes, I think it's it's it can you turn

999
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:16,319
Speaker 1: your body around when you got when you're nicked up

1000
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:18,160
Speaker 1: and those kinds of things on the short I actually

1001
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 1: give the Redskins some credit for what they did. I mean,

1002
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,960
Speaker 1: they were functional. I mean, they had the ball, they

1003
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 1: had a chance to go drive and win the game,

1004
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 1: and they you know, they had guys planned for them

1005
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 1: that were signed early or late in the week. I mean,

1006
00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:35,000
Speaker 1: so Bill Callahan who was here obviously with the Cowboys,

1007
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 1: and he did a really nice job with that old

1008
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,360
Speaker 1: line and yeah to I mean to Derek's point. Before

1009
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:43,400
Speaker 1: before the rain really started, it got sloppy. You know,

1010
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:46,720
Speaker 1: people were blowing me up like we can't get pressure

1011
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 1: on these guys they signed three days ago, like DeMarcus

1012
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 1: Lawrence can't beat Morgan Moses with no ankles, blah blah

1013
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,560
Speaker 1: blah blah. I mean yeah, so, I mean I don't

1014
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:58,319
Speaker 1: know that the Cowboys would have lost that game, but

1015
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 1: I think it would have been much different king had

1016
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 1: it stayed dryer. This defensive front, as I think probably

1017
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:07,520
Speaker 1: most defensive fronts in the league are, unless they're just exceptional,

1018
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 1: is they play really well and they can get those

1019
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,839
Speaker 1: those big moments when they know what the other team

1020
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:15,840
Speaker 1: is doing, When you force the other team into situations

1021
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:17,839
Speaker 1: where they have to throw the ball, then you can

1022
00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:20,000
Speaker 1: just really go get the quarterback and you don't have

1023
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 1: to worry about pass run. There were some moments in

1024
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 1: that game last night, Like I said early in the game,

1025
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:26,719
Speaker 1: there were some moments there where you were wondering how

1026
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:28,560
Speaker 1: good this defense was gonna be able to be even

1027
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,360
Speaker 1: against the banged up offensive line, really against a second

1028
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 1: team offensive line, because there were moments when Kirk Cousins

1029
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:37,399
Speaker 1: had a lot of time. There were moments when Chris

1030
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:41,160
Speaker 1: Chris Thompson had some nice runs like you know that

1031
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,840
Speaker 1: Nick when when when Rob Kelly went out for a second,

1032
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 1: I was like, well that didn't really matter. I kind

1033
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 1: of won him back in because I think I want

1034
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:50,759
Speaker 1: him running versus Chris Thompson. But Chris Thompson had some

1035
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 1: nice runs even against you know, running up the middle.

1036
00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:57,560
Speaker 1: So I just think the weather played a huge factor

1037
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,719
Speaker 1: in that game. I don't know if we would have

1038
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 1: seen the same outcome if it wouldn't have been for

1039
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:03,880
Speaker 1: the weather. I love the way that this game turned,

1040
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 1: like when the Cowboys really get control of a game,

1041
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 1: the way they want to double digit lead a lot

1042
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,839
Speaker 1: of runs. It's funny the way it turns because I'm like,

1043
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:14,520
Speaker 1: when you said Chris Thompson, I was like, oh, yeah,

1044
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:18,799
Speaker 1: did he do anything? Eight catches, seventy six yards, twenty

1045
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:20,959
Speaker 1: rushing yard, Like, yeah, it's a moment to one hundred

1046
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,880
Speaker 1: all purpose yards of a long run of sixteen and

1047
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:25,960
Speaker 1: a long catch of twenty six, Like, he definitely had

1048
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:30,040
Speaker 1: some moments, but after about halftime, it just didn't seem

1049
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 1: like it mattered because their offense. I think because of

1050
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 1: the rain and the way their offense runs. When they

1051
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,520
Speaker 1: when their passing game became when it became when the

1052
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:41,320
Speaker 1: weather became something that made passing prohibitive, then it changed

1053
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 1: the whole complexion of the game for them. And I

1054
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 1: think you had it not happened like that, I'm not

1055
00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,080
Speaker 1: saying the Cowboys couldn't have won the game. I think

1056
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:49,279
Speaker 1: it would have been a much different style of game, though,

1057
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 1: I think there would have been a ton of scoring

1058
00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:52,480
Speaker 1: both ways. It probably would have been a lot like

1059
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,240
Speaker 1: that Sunday night football game last night between the Texans.

1060
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 1: That was the afternoon game between the Texans and the

1061
00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 1: where you got it, going back and forth. Whoever has

1062
00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:03,640
Speaker 1: the ball last wins, right, you know, ironically, like several

1063
00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:06,719
Speaker 1: times throughout our game yesterday, I was like, man, I

1064
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,320
Speaker 1: I was watching that. I know that game was crazy,

1065
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:11,040
Speaker 1: and then you get the good baseball game last night.

1066
00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:15,080
Speaker 1: This is sports I'm projecting, like so stupidly far into

1067
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,719
Speaker 1: the futures. I mean, Cowboys are not a lock to

1068
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:21,520
Speaker 1: make the playoffs by any stretch of the imagination whatsoever.

1069
00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:25,080
Speaker 1: But if they do, I would guess it's as a

1070
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:29,920
Speaker 1: wild card. And you know, that's really encouraging that you're

1071
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:32,320
Speaker 1: built to play that type of football, like winning winning

1072
00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:34,160
Speaker 1: a game like this, I mean, if you've got to

1073
00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:40,840
Speaker 1: go to Seattle or somewhere cold or miserable in January. Although,

1074
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 1: like now, what I'm thinking about it, most of the

1075
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:46,240
Speaker 1: teams in the playoff picture play indoors or in nicer climates,

1076
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:48,839
Speaker 1: but still, I mean it's I mean, that's the type

1077
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 1: of football that travels, and that's nice to know if

1078
00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:53,440
Speaker 1: this is billy even like yeah, as a city that

1079
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 1: has inclement Billy Charlotte, Seattle, LA. Probably not so much. Whatever,

1080
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: but you can take that with you if you do

1081
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:03,759
Speaker 1: have to play a road playoff game. Yep, let's get

1082
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:05,239
Speaker 1: to some questions, you guys, give us a call two

1083
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,520
Speaker 1: one four eight seven two twenty one h two or

1084
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 1: hit us on Twitter at Cowboys Break. Let's start first

1085
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 1: with a question from Twitter. Well, I think had the

1086
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:17,280
Speaker 1: Cowboys lost this game, we would probably be talking about

1087
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 1: all the penalties they had. So what are y'all's concerned

1088
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:25,319
Speaker 1: in regards to this, especially with the players such as

1089
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 1: Tyron Smith. Yeah, I mean Tyron Smith had three penalties,

1090
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,680
Speaker 1: two holdings and in a false start and at least

1091
00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 1: one of them I thought was bogus. But go ahead,

1092
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 1: Yeah I thought a touchdown, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I thought

1093
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,239
Speaker 1: it was very kind of needed that touchdown to pancake ish,

1094
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,279
Speaker 1: like I thought he was kind of smashing the guy.

1095
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:47,279
Speaker 1: But anyways, it's uncharacteristic at a him, and you know

1096
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:50,319
Speaker 1: that That's where I think maybe we need to just

1097
00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:52,800
Speaker 1: see if we chalk that up to the weather as well.

1098
00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:56,160
Speaker 1: You know, it's hard to get your you know, hands

1099
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,240
Speaker 1: on guys that to block everybody's you know that Jersey's

1100
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:02,319
Speaker 1: a wet hands wet you know, maybe it just leads

1101
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:05,080
Speaker 1: to a little bit more of those holding penalties. So

1102
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:10,120
Speaker 1: we'll see. Tyren Smith's resume speaks for itself. And so

1103
00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:12,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if I should we should sit here

1104
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 1: and say we should be concerned about it. Well, what

1105
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,640
Speaker 1: about the other guys? Well, well this is the this

1106
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:19,319
Speaker 1: is a conversation we have in the press box all

1107
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,799
Speaker 1: the time. Jason Witten is good for a penalty of

1108
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:25,440
Speaker 1: some sort just about every game. I mean, one way

1109
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 1: or that. He had a holding yesterday. Sometimes it's a

1110
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:31,360
Speaker 1: false start, whatever, You let those things go because the

1111
00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:36,440
Speaker 1: resume far exceeds you know, the infraction, and that that

1112
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:38,839
Speaker 1: goes for Tyrn Smith. I mean, that's that's the most

1113
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 1: Tyrannt Smith has been penalized in a game in the

1114
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 1: five years I've been covering this team. And it was

1115
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:47,040
Speaker 1: in a monsoon against a team with good pass rushers

1116
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:50,359
Speaker 1: Preston Smith and Ryan Kerrigan. So not a great day

1117
00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 1: for him by any stretch. But I'm not worried about it.

1118
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:57,840
Speaker 1: Lyle Collins probably a little more concerning, um, you know,

1119
00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:00,120
Speaker 1: I think I even said leading into that game, you know,

1120
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:02,880
Speaker 1: if you can handle Von Miller and those type of

1121
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:05,600
Speaker 1: guys as well as Lyle has, then you know, you'd

1122
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,680
Speaker 1: think you can handle Ryan Kerrigan. Ryan Karragan whooped him

1123
00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:10,759
Speaker 1: up a little bit, especially in the early going when

1124
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,520
Speaker 1: the game was closer. So you know, not not great,

1125
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,040
Speaker 1: but you got out of it and you ran for

1126
00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:19,520
Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty nine yards. I mean, you know,

1127
00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,160
Speaker 1: if you watch the tape and try to improve, if

1128
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 1: you took the numbers off and then numbers and names

1129
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:27,239
Speaker 1: off of the guys and just kind of evaluated this

1130
00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:29,759
Speaker 1: this offensive line for the last I don't know, three

1131
00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:32,960
Speaker 1: or four weeks since it's been, since it's been this lineup,

1132
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I would think that Tyran still has probably

1133
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:41,120
Speaker 1: been your best guy. I mean, he he locks it down.

1134
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,399
Speaker 1: He didn't get beat much. And if it's not if

1135
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:47,880
Speaker 1: not Zack Martin, but Cooper is up there. Especially yesterday,

1136
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,680
Speaker 1: I thought Jonathan Cooper he had a holding too though,

1137
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 1: just yeah he did, he did, he had a holding.

1138
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:55,280
Speaker 1: But I mean when you when you watch him play

1139
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:59,640
Speaker 1: and watches that touchdown run, I mean he he is

1140
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,359
Speaker 1: the best guy on the line on that touchdown run

1141
00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:04,759
Speaker 1: where it was just wide open. He just mauls his

1142
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:08,719
Speaker 1: guy and he is playing like the like the first

1143
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: round pick. I mean, he's starting to do that. And

1144
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:13,080
Speaker 1: I think it's kind of what we talked about before.

1145
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:16,239
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess you get surrounded by greatness. You know.

1146
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,560
Speaker 1: Eric's like a proud dad over here, like yeah, just

1147
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:20,759
Speaker 1: like he is. No, no, no, Honestly, I think we

1148
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:22,360
Speaker 1: were talking about it on the show, even back to

1149
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:24,839
Speaker 1: training camp of man, what would it look like if

1150
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:26,239
Speaker 1: you could get this guy to play up to the

1151
00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 1: potential of where he was drafted and maybe getting him

1152
00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:31,920
Speaker 1: around other guys who would drafted in the similar timeframe

1153
00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:35,200
Speaker 1: and similar picks. Maybe that does it. Maybe that gets

1154
00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,520
Speaker 1: and then if you can get there, now you've really

1155
00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:40,240
Speaker 1: hit I mean you've hit on that on that position,

1156
00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:42,439
Speaker 1: and you've hit on a position and where you think

1157
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,680
Speaker 1: you can kind of sustain it a little bit because hey,

1158
00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 1: I mean it's not that expensive to have him here,

1159
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 1: you know, and give what we talked about free agency

1160
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:53,120
Speaker 1: and how this you know, the actual you know, last

1161
00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:57,440
Speaker 1: two years that hasn't been good really and just veteran

1162
00:54:57,480 --> 00:55:01,160
Speaker 1: free agency, but the force site to say, you know

1163
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:03,920
Speaker 1: what let's get Cooper here. Let's see if if maybe

1164
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,680
Speaker 1: next year, because they did that last year, they kept him,

1165
00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:08,719
Speaker 1: they resigned him. They thought, well, let's give him a

1166
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,000
Speaker 1: chance to let him be here all offseason. And it's

1167
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:14,080
Speaker 1: paying off, just like what they did when they took

1168
00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:17,480
Speaker 1: a six seven defensive end off the Chiefs practice squad,

1169
00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:22,879
Speaker 1: you know. And and he's David Irvy so which, by

1170
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:24,799
Speaker 1: the way, that just reminded me. It's this will be

1171
00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:26,480
Speaker 1: a really good week to have a feature on him

1172
00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:30,200
Speaker 1: if he's playing the Chiefs really yeah, good idea. His

1173
00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:33,040
Speaker 1: college team's playing pretty well too. I was staying, he said,

1174
00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:38,400
Speaker 1: he told me before he put on whatever he was wearing.

1175
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 1: What was that? That's Chester, Chester Chester, He's named it.

1176
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 1: What is it? The Fox? The Fox? Okay, I just

1177
00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:47,319
Speaker 1: he like I'm talking to him in the locker room,

1178
00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:50,839
Speaker 1: and had a lion on his back. Yeah, as as

1179
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:54,080
Speaker 1: a lion backpack. David's got Chester the Fox. What is

1180
00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,799
Speaker 1: Dez wearing on his head on the Yeah, he's got

1181
00:55:56,800 --> 00:56:01,520
Speaker 1: the the George Costanza hat. Yeah, it's anyways, all kinds

1182
00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:03,520
Speaker 1: of animals, and we're talking about going to the zoo.

1183
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:07,320
Speaker 1: Nugent probably thought he was back there seeing Irving, but

1184
00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:10,360
Speaker 1: Irving said it was biggle smile. He's like, this is

1185
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:13,319
Speaker 1: a good weekend for me. He's like, my team beat

1186
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 1: TCU and we won the game, so this was a

1187
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:21,279
Speaker 1: really big weekend. He's like, just he's the best life.

1188
00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:26,080
Speaker 1: Is such a friendly, just unassuming dude who has to

1189
00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:29,840
Speaker 1: be good at terrorizing quarterbacks and would never do that

1190
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:31,640
Speaker 1: in his normal life. Like he doesn't seem like he

1191
00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:34,560
Speaker 1: has the personality to terrorize anybody at all. But yeah,

1192
00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: well you might get to know Mass this week. Might

1193
00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:41,520
Speaker 1: got to know Mass about him. Hey, by the way,

1194
00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:43,480
Speaker 1: you know, just to mention, you mentioned that, But I

1195
00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:44,960
Speaker 1: don't know if how many people have saw that. Last

1196
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:46,640
Speaker 1: week he put out a brand new show that a

1197
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:50,640
Speaker 1: Ambers and Amber and Rob are hosting called No Mass,

1198
00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:53,320
Speaker 1: with the idea being that it's kind of an opportunity

1199
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 1: for you guys to get to know players a little closer.

1200
00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:58,319
Speaker 1: And uh, and I thought, it's a really good show.

1201
00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:00,279
Speaker 1: It's a fun show. Tell people what it's about, just

1202
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:01,799
Speaker 1: so they have an idea and they can go check

1203
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,560
Speaker 1: it out. It's on the website right now. What's it about. Well,

1204
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 1: it's basically kind of like a trivia game where you

1205
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:12,719
Speaker 1: get to guess what the player's answer is. So so

1206
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:15,759
Speaker 1: far we've been having a player as a guest on

1207
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 1: the studio in the studio and they try to guess

1208
00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:23,360
Speaker 1: what their teammate teammate answers are. Now we have this

1209
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:27,680
Speaker 1: one coming up that might be Irvin again and against

1210
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:31,600
Speaker 1: Rob playing guessing what the Marcus Lawrence is saying. And

1211
00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:35,760
Speaker 1: that one turned out pretty funny, pretty hilarious. I was saying,

1212
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:38,520
Speaker 1: let me just change it, and it's not because it's

1213
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:41,960
Speaker 1: our show, in my show or whatever. It's hilarious. It

1214
00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:46,080
Speaker 1: was very It was kind of crappy. Actually, you guys

1215
00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:48,200
Speaker 1: will have to watch it. Yeah, it was good, but

1216
00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:51,000
Speaker 1: just to give you guys a clearer picture even than that,

1217
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:54,520
Speaker 1: it's basically, you ask a player or a question and

1218
00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:56,920
Speaker 1: then you stop it stop the video of him get

1219
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:58,800
Speaker 1: before he can give an answer, and you ask the

1220
00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:01,240
Speaker 1: two contestants what do you think his answer was? You

1221
00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:03,960
Speaker 1: give him multiple choice and then they say, I think

1222
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:06,280
Speaker 1: it was this. In that first episode, one of the

1223
00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 1: funniest moments was asking about Jalen Smith and what he

1224
00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:12,680
Speaker 1: One of the things that people wouldn't know about him,

1225
00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 1: I think was the question and I just will say

1226
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:19,320
Speaker 1: door the door the Explorer was included in his answer,

1227
00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:22,160
Speaker 1: and it was pretty funny. So it's that kind of stuff,

1228
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 1: really cool concept. You guys are doing a really good job.

1229
00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:27,720
Speaker 1: Rob had no chance trying to go up against Rod

1230
