32
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: know from you because you have spent the night with

33
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: the team. Basically yeah, that sounds but doesn't sound, but

34
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: you've been you, You of all people should know the

35
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 1: pulse of what that victory, that first playoff victor road

36
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: victory and hold on and in thirty years, what was

37
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: that plane ride like? What was that environment like? What

38
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: was it like to get to blow the dust off

39
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: of a playoff victory like that? You know, it's funny.

40
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: I've heard some loud, loud planes in the back. Yeah,

41
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: and sometimes on some losses that you were kind of

42
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: scratching your head like did they win? Like, no, they didn't.

43
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: They lost in overtime or something, But it doesn't sound

44
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: like it, you know. I don't know if it was

45
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: just how tired everyone was or whatever, but you didn't

46
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: really hear a lot from the guys. They were excited

47
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: though in the locker room. There's no doubt about it.

48
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: And I think what was cool for me because I've

49
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: been doing it, this is what twenty four seasons. I

50
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: remember the people that were here that were established when

51
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: I first got here, some of the trainers, some of

52
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: them front office guys. Jerry Jones Junior for another one

53
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: who really got here like in ninety six, always with

54
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: the family, of course, but like working here. He's never

55
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 1: seen a playoff win on the road, and so that

56
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: was cool to see a lot of people that have

57
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: been here for so long, and he kind of take

58
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: for granted this is new for them because you always say, man,

59
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: you've seen it all, well, no, not really, hadn't seen

60
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: a road playoff win, hadn't seen them go farther than

61
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: this next round. So that that was That was really cool.

62
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: It was cool, And the best part is is they

63
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: earned it because they just nicked their ass. Yeah they

64
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: really did know that, and you picked them to kick

65
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: their ass. Absolutely. We have the pod picks, we have

66
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: the whole list, and it's one thing to say, oh,

67
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna win twenty eight twenty seven or

68
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: something like that. You know, you know, I picked thirty two.

69
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: I picked twenty nine to twenty only because it had

70
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: to be a two score game. Because it was a

71
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 1: one score game, I had no faith. It's Tom Brady. Yeah,

72
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,359
Speaker 1: so I picked that, But you know, I didn't expect

73
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: it really to be like that. You did, but I

74
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: don't know, did you? I had them twenty eight twenty six.

75
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: I had a close game, yeah, exactly, exactly, because it's

76
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven. I had twenty eight twenty six. I

77
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: was six years old. Heck of the last time the

78
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys won six role playoff game six years old. It's

79
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: a good game, right, I was good. I mean, I

80
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: remember it was a great game. It's a great game. Um.

81
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 1: But I think for me, I think what I most

82
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: enjoyed about last night was, aside from obviously Brett Maher

83
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 1: and his struggles. It was arguably the most complete victory

84
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: from this team since Minnesota. I thought, I thought Dak

85
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: Prescott played at the level that playoff quarterbacks had to

86
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: play it in order to win these kinds of games.

87
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 1: And Micah Parsons was just watching him play after played

88
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: the relentless effort that he put together last night. I'm

89
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: still marveling at what he did and how he got

90
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: after the Bucks in an offensive line. He was spectacular.

91
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 1: Jayon Curs had a big play. But Parses to me,

92
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: I know, Prescott's gonna get all the headlines. Parses was

93
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: phenomenal last night without it out. Yeah, guys, I'm gonna

94
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna do hot Tub top machine. Back to last week, okay,

95
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: and uh yeah, we're gonna We're gonna start on Monday.

96
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,359
Speaker 1: We're gonna start on Monday. Where Mike McCarthy was was

97
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: coaching for his job, okay, And all of the questions

98
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: and everybody's that was being placed in the ether was

99
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: about Dak's legacy. Mike McCarthy, I guess a freeze job

100
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: away from losing his job, and the Dallas Cowboys are

101
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: completely a disaster waiting to happen. Fast forward now to

102
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: today without all of those questions, with those questions being

103
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 1: answered about Mike McCarthy, what was your impression of him

104
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: and the job at him and his staff did in

105
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: this in this playoffs playoff victory. Incredible, incredible job. You're right,

106
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: his job. I don't know what to say on the line.

107
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: That's one guy, that one decision really with Jerry, but

108
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: the but the seat was definitely definitely warm, and if

109
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: he had another bad game in the playoffs, it was

110
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: gonna be really interesting. Um. But I thought I thought

111
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 1: he did a great job because I love what he

112
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 1: did with the you know, with the baby pictures and

113
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: stuff like that, you know, embracing the fact that I

114
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: hadn't won in thirty years. Most coaches would say, that's

115
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: not my problem. I haven't lost thirty years in a row.

116
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,479
Speaker 1: He embraced it though. He took the team and he said, hey,

117
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 1: you know, this is the narrative going out there. Let's

118
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: just wrap our arms around it. So I thought it

119
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: was it was really good that he did. That probably

120
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,720
Speaker 1: loosened them up and for whatever it is when they

121
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 1: play poorly and lose games, they have figured out how

122
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: to not only win, but play really good games. I mean,

123
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: Minnesota was unbel believable. The Bengals when Dak was out,

124
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: I mean, they figured out a way to win that

125
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 1: game with Cooper Rush. I don't want to, I can't

126
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 1: name them all, but but it seems like they not

127
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: only win, but they play well. I think for me

128
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: what resonated was the lack of preparedness that I felt

129
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: they had against Washington. It was the complete opposite last night.

130
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: I thought from an offensive standpoint, a defensive standpoint, they

131
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: knew exactly what they wanted to do, how they wanted

132
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: to execute it. And you get the players credit for

133
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: going out and executing that game plan time after time.

134
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: So I thought McCarthy, having his guys Dan Quinn, Kellen Moore,

135
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: I thought everyone was on the same page and knew

136
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: exactly what they wanted to do and how they wanted

137
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: to attack offensively and defensively Tampa Bay last night, and

138
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: they did so. And genuinely, there's no in between with

139
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 1: this team. And I've kind of read your articles and

140
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: I always see that you say either you either you

141
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: love them or you think they suck. Yeah, there's no

142
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: there's no middle ground here. About the Cowboy. Think North Carolina,

143
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: where you're just nothing new true about that. There's nothing

144
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: neutral about this space at all. And so for the

145
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, it came down to actually showing up. And

146
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: that's that's what everybody was was was looking at. You know,

147
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: how do these guys take the field? Are they lively?

148
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: What's the look the eye of the tiger? You know,

149
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: these guys look like they were ready to go. I

150
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: had a guy from the public relations department who has

151
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: worked here at least fifteen years. He's never said this

152
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: to me before. He asked me. He's one of those

153
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: questions where you ask you know that you ask someone

154
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: like how are you doing, just so that you could

155
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: ask them how they're doing. You know. He was like, hey,

156
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 1: what do you think about this game? I'm like, man,

157
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: I don't know, it could be whatever. He goes, they're

158
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: gonna be They're gonna win, They're gonna they're gonna they're

159
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: gonna be fine. I was like, wow, He's like I've

160
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: seen I see their eyes, like okay, all of them,

161
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 1: like all ninety six eyes. Like he's like, I trust

162
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: trust me. I'm like okay, the trust okay. And then

163
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: later he goes see. I was like, well, you weren't

164
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,319
Speaker 1: looking at my heart, but you were like at the

165
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: arrest of the guys. You're right, you're right. Give it

166
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: to him. You're right because he's never done that before.

167
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: He must have seen something, you know, and that look,

168
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: um you know, because but I've done it before. I

169
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 1: thought for sure when I was on the field in

170
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen rams divisional game, the way that crowd was

171
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: and there, I was like, we're winning this game. We're

172
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: gonna go to the MC championship game finally. And it

173
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,439
Speaker 1: didn't happen. So as long as you get kind of

174
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: duped by that, but they were ready. I mean they

175
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: were they were ready. You know the Washington game. Going

176
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,559
Speaker 1: back to that MCQUAMU, that's the one. I keep thinking.

177
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: He didn't even play. They even dress him out for

178
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 1: that game. And so you're thinking, oh, you're like Jabril Cox,

179
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,079
Speaker 1: I mean, you're kind of on the outside right now,

180
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: you're not even part of the team, so not I

181
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 1: mean part of the plan. And then they come back

182
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: to this game and he's a huge part of the play,

183
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 1: right He sits right in the middle of the field,

184
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 1: use these long arms and make plays and he did.

185
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: He made plays. I mean, they had a vision. So

186
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: I'm not saying they threw the game against Washington, but

187
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,679
Speaker 1: the way that McLaurin wasn't getting traveled by Diggs and

188
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 1: they were letting Mullin go out there to see if

189
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: he could do it, it made me kind of think

190
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 1: that a little suspicious. I just thought maybe they were

191
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: trying something, trying to do some stuff. And I think

192
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 1: when you do that and you show that the players

193
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: that you're doing that, it's only second nature to be like,

194
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: all right, we try you know, yeah, And they're definitely

195
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: not going to get any excuses on that. There's so

196
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: many people talked about the Commander's Job game all week

197
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: last week, not even considering Tampa as a victory or not.

198
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: The defense. I want to go back to what you

199
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 1: were saying, Kevin, this this defense came to play and

200
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: they were the They were the one group that I

201
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: think coming off of the Commander's game that everybody was saying, Oh,

202
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: this defense isn't what you think they are. And in

203
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 1: a lot of ways, do you think that that resonated

204
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,599
Speaker 1: with those guys, like they're saying in themselves, Okay, you

205
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: watch this and they put in that kind of performance

206
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: last night. Yeah. I think the returns of Layton, Vanderesh

207
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: and Hankins were massive absolutely last night. And I think

208
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: to your point, they heard all the noise about, well,

209
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: this defense isn't what they were at the beginning of

210
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: the year, but they knew we're gonna get healthy and

211
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,079
Speaker 1: we're gonna be a find a way to be able

212
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: to stop the run, which they did last night against Fournette.

213
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: But Hankins in the middle, Van Deresh and his play

214
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: massive for them, and I think, yeah, up the middle

215
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: for them, Yeah yeah. And then even on the back end.

216
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 1: I mean one of those one of the few good

217
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: plays that the Bucks had was early in the game

218
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 1: when they were driving in that little flip pass to

219
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: god Went on third down, but Brady, you know, it

220
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: was like a no, look he paid for that. Yeah,

221
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: lor Mahomes ask type right, and Godwin was like, oh,

222
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 1: first down. Was the last player of the first quarter

223
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:42,959
Speaker 1: and all that. And I remember looking over at Patrick

224
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 1: and I said, well, he got the first down, but

225
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: I could promise you god one's not feeling good right now.

226
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,719
Speaker 1: He got smacks. I don't even Wilson. Yeah, I mean

227
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 1: he yeah, yeah, he loved the boom. I guarantee there's

228
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: times that NFL League office is like, is that we fine, Wilson,

229
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,680
Speaker 1: it's on the cuss just hit all right on the

230
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 1: line there right on the I think he's been fine,

231
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: maybe once or twice, but for but for as physical

232
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: as he is, get rid of this making noise here.

233
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 1: I mean, you missed. You want to look at it? No,

234
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,079
Speaker 1: you you used all the back. Boy, you should have

235
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: called the glass on that. Jack. I'll say, I do

236
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: it a lot. I mean, this is kind of my

237
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 1: shot practice. I used to suck at it and there

238
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 1: would be time I forget and Chris Bean would come

239
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: in here and pick it up and all that. But

240
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: I don't think he's picked it up in a while.

241
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: But from that, Chris, that wasn't looking good. I don't

242
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: know how. He usually leaves it on the table. I

243
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: usually make it. Chris, No, you don't throw it away.

244
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: He just leave it on the table for me to

245
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 1: throw away. So he's he's new leaf on life. It's

246
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: new year man. Obviously take the label off because it

247
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 1: wasn't the brand water. You don't have to get that text.

248
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 1: I know about it all too well, but we're talking

249
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 1: about Donovan Wilson. Man had a hell of a game

250
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: and the way that he played physically, I think that

251
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,959
Speaker 1: holds secondary the way that they attack team. So much

252
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 1: of the perception about the Dallas Cowboys defense is they

253
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 1: can't stop to run. And when you hold a team

254
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 1: like Tampa that comes into your contest knowing that they

255
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: have to run the ball and they can't run the ball.

256
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: And that's all due to those pieces that you're talking

257
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: about that were in there. But secondly, I really loved

258
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 1: what Israel mccuomwell did. Um We've talked about his height

259
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 1: and him and drunk curse and nation right and just

260
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: these guys six five or six four point forwards in

261
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: the league you know out there playing in the second. Yes,

262
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 1: he loves his link. I mean, he has a proto.

263
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: He's a type of guy that he likes. But to

264
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: see a kid come in that was originally a safety,

265
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 1: well that moved to safety. Now move back, he's playing

266
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 1: more like that corner hybrid. What do you even say

267
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: his role is because he's not a safety? Oh not? Now,

268
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 1: you're right, he's playing he's playing the they call it

269
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: a Dino package and it's uh, it's like a you know,

270
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: it's a dime Nickel package there where. You know. That's

271
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: what I love about what dan Quinn does. He kind

272
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 1: of sees the player and has a vision for it.

273
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: And it's not like, well, this is my defense is

274
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 1: what I do. It's like, what can I do with

275
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: a player like that? You know, I'm not comparing him

276
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: to the greatest coach of all time, but like, that's

277
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: what made Belichick so great is that he could look

278
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 1: at a guy and go, all right, it's Troy Brown.

279
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: He's kind of our third receiver, but I might be

280
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: able to use him at you know, just just thinking

281
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 1: outside the box. And I thought that was great about

282
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: what just put him in Belichick's fear. And now we're

283
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 1: definitely losing during nothing, and I was like, Okay, good news,

284
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 1: this is looking good for the Cowboys and play next week.

285
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: Bad news was losing our coach. Thank you so much

286
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 1: for this performance, and good luck with that number six

287
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: that we just talked about too. Donovan Wilson, are you

288
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 1: going with him? Yeah? Yeah, what are you talking about?

289
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: Where you going? I go kind of like you where

290
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: you do something? Hey better believe that? Hey, I want

291
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: from you guys, one guy not named Michael Parsons that

292
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: was your impact player of the game. Any side of

293
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 1: the ball, defense, just defense, defense, Uh, I mean yeah,

294
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna go with Hankins. Yeah, That's what I'm

295
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: gonna go with. Yeah, I like, I like what Layton did.

296
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 1: I mean, well, curse, I mean curse. The interception was

297
00:15:49,440 --> 00:16:00,040
Speaker 1: was great? You I mean, lad, I didn't hear a

298
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: lot of was tanking. I don't remember a lot. He

299
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: does a lot of dirty work stuff that you don't

300
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: you know, Dorin's Armstrong had some plays. Um, you know,

301
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: I'm not and I'm not really critical of Digs. I'm not. Um,

302
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: there's a couple of plays. Derek Eagleton and I were

303
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: kind of arguing a little bit up in the press

304
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 1: box a little bit about certain plays like that. And

305
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: there's times when I feel like, as a corner, he's

306
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: trying to get the running back to go back to

307
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 1: the middle. Yeah, you're you're you're beating him to the sideline,

308
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: especially at the end of the half when timeouts stuff,

309
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: You're beating him to the sideline. You've got to go

310
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: back to the middle. And when they got they cut

311
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: back then Yeah, you kind of slip and you don't

312
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 1: make the play and you hope that the other guys do.

313
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: I think he does a nice job with that and

314
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 1: not you know, he had a couple of plays where

315
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: he didn't tackle. A lot of people may have fel

316
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 1: he was making a certain business decisions when it came

317
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 1: to attack. I thought it covers, so he did fairly well.

318
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: I want him to. I'm sorry, I've never I've never

319
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: hated that idea. I want you to make business decisions.

320
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: Put your shoulders right. Well, I mean Dion did it

321
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: for years. Okay, Well, Deon's the greatest cornerback of all time.

322
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 1: I mean you're paying him to cover, not necessarily, you know, right,

323
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: I mean and make and make plays. And I mean

324
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 1: what point are you making if you make this tackle

325
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: and then you know, not everyone's Rod Woodson or whatever. Right? Absolutely,

326
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: who was a killer? Yeah, I mean he was. He

327
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 1: was good and then he moved to safety or whatever.

328
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: But like I think his Trayvon's job is is cover

329
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,119
Speaker 1: the guy, and he does a good job. I just

330
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,439
Speaker 1: don't have a problem with really anybody and how they

331
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 1: played in that game. I thought it was it was

332
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 1: a really Anthony Barr. I thought I had some nice plays.

333
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: I mean, but Michael, it's Michael set the first play

334
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: the game, first play the game with the tackle for lost,

335
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: and the third play of the game holding call. You

336
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: know they actually called it? How about that? How about that?

337
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe. I was like, they actually called the

338
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,439
Speaker 1: whole the penalty they actually did. Yeah. And the and

339
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: the strategy, And we talked about this on the playoffs.

340
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: Down is the strategy to not block Mica on the

341
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: first play. Yeah, it's not gonna work out for you.

342
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: I said that too. I was like, I think they're

343
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: gonna change that philosophy, but they don't. Yeah, And that's

344
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 1: and and to me, the one thing about Michael's performance

345
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 1: was coming off of that Commander's game, he looked completely

346
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: beat up. He looked like I was saying to myself

347
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:19,439
Speaker 1: after the Commander's game, how healthy or how much Michael

348
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,920
Speaker 1: were we gonna get in the playoffs, Because if he's

349
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 1: looking like that, huh dad now right? Yeah, yeah, it's

350
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: a dad. Congratulations as a yeah he's a girl. Dad

351
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,879
Speaker 1: now trust joined the group. Brother. We got plenty to

352
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 1: worry about, thank you. But it's just one of those

353
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: things where you watched this guy last night where the

354
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: switch came on. The player that you saw in the

355
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 1: Cincinnati game was present, the guy that you saw be

356
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 1: completely disruptive and that it was. It was reminiscent of

357
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings game where you know the first person game. Yeah,

358
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: he breaks on. Kirk Cousins' is like, Oh, it's gonna

359
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 1: be like this all night, this kind of party. Yeah. Yeah.

360
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: And so look we're gonna take our first break, uh,

361
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 1: and we're gonna come back and we're gonna talk about

362
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 1: my favorite subject. And H that's Dak Prescott. H. That's

363
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott and H we're gonna we're gonna, we're gonna

364
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: take care of that. And because I really want to

365
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 1: know what you guys think about this performance of Dak

366
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,119
Speaker 1: Prescott coming up with more media Mash Todd thought it

367
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 1: would be secure to jog in the Cheetah Savannah. Todd

368
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: believed the big Cat repellent he bought online was reliable.

369
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,000

370
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 1: cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour. But the

371
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 1: good news is Todd has at and T five g.

372
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he learned the

373
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 1: best thing to do is stop running and toss her

374
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,440

412
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 1: look man, another guy last week they got murdered in

413
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: the media, raked across the coals God, and we talked

414
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: about it, just saying, hey man, he is leading the

415
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:15,159
Speaker 1: NFL in turnovers. He's missed five games, and all the

416
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: stats that did indicate that even if he played those

417
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 1: other five games, he probably would have had twenty I mean,

418
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a projection gone wild on that

419
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: when you start talking about what he could have done

420
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: with those turnovers, he turns around last night, gentlemen, and

421
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: has a game, Yeah, twenty five or thirty three, three

422
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 1: oh five, four interceptions for excuse me, for four touchdowns,

423
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: four touchdowns and get this, no interceptions. Yeah, and a

424
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 1: Russian touchdown. Looked like the best version of himself that

425
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 1: we've seen thus far. Never I mean, the numbers you

426
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 1: go back and just look at you know, expected points

427
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 1: at it. You know, you go throw all the advanced

428
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: nub was just nuts. But he went what oh of

429
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 1: three three in completions, first drive lasted thirteen seconds. Asked

430
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,879
Speaker 1: that he goes twenty five or thirty for three hundred

431
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 1: and five yards. The four passing touchdowns one rushing touchdown,

432
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 1: eighty three percent completion percentage, had a QB rating of

433
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: one forty three. I mean, near flawless football from him.

434
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 1: And one of my favorite plays from last night was

435
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: the twenty two yards from him to Schultz. Beautiful held

436
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 1: the safety perfectly, Dalton gets open, he just throws a

437
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 1: beautiful path, like you just knew. He was dialed in.

438
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 1: I think at one point had eleven straight completions, broke

439
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 1: Troyman's record for most consecutive Completionly, he was just dialed

440
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: in all night last night. I agree. I thought, I thought,

441
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: with everything at State, with that, okay, what the narrative

442
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 1: is on him? And now the only reason that people

443
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: were giving Tampa Bay a chance in this game was

444
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:55,120
Speaker 1: because of the quarterback matchup. You know, you'd go down

445
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: the list of all the matchups and any intangibles and

446
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 1: coaching and all this stuff with the check mark it's

447
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 1: the quarterback and that and that, and Brady gets it

448
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 1: and he deserves it, and but but Dak outplayed him,

449
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: and I thought that was the best game that Dak's

450
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: play I thought was the biggest game of his career,

451
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: and I think he answered the bell. My favorite play

452
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: wasn't even a throw. It was when it was twelve nothing.

453
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 1: You're pinned back there a little bit, and then they

454
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 1: start driving out of that. You know, Tampa's calling timeouts

455
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 1: because they want the ball back and they don't get it.

456
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,679
Speaker 1: And it's third and six and he rolls left and

457
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: runs and he gets the first down. He's diving for it.

458
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,360
Speaker 1: And I said this on the show and the Cowboys

459
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 1: break the other day. Dak needs to be Dat needs

460
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,479
Speaker 1: to not be a quarterback that plays football. He needs

461
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:43,919
Speaker 1: to be a football player that plays quarterback is and

462
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: that's what a football player was. Now, the bad part

463
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: is that touchdown that he threw to Schultz, Like this,

464
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 1: the second one, the one that made an eighteen to nothing.

465
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 1: He's rolling left, he waits, Schultz gets open, throws it

466
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: across touchdown. That's when he was just he was dealing. Yeah,

467
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 1: that's gonna get picked that Like that play, it's like Romo, Yes,

468
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 1: great job. But that same mentality is going to get

469
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,400
Speaker 1: an interception. It's got an interception before. Yeah, that's what

470
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 1: those interceptions were Green Bay. Because he makes that throw.

471
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: Sometimes he's a touchdown, sometimes it's not, but it's the

472
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 1: mentality do we want to take it away, because if

473
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:26,199
Speaker 1: you take it away, you don't get a game like

474
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: he got last time. He almost feel cursed by that

475
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,359
Speaker 1: success because you're like, hey, you're going to be confident

476
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: in that, and you're gonna do it at the wrong time. Yeah. Absolutely, Yeah,

477
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: that's one of the things we loved about Brett Farve.

478
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 1: He just took a chance. Yeah, exactly, exactly. And I

479
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 1: really think Dak and Romo have similar games. I really do.

480
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that the way that they play

481
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 1: is very similar, especially the way Romo was early in

482
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,479
Speaker 1: where he was really you know, he wasn't I wouldn't

483
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: say never athletic, but he was crafty, you know, and

484
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: he can kind of make some plays here and there.

485
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 1: And I think that they kind of play the same

486
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 1: game a little bit. Wow. And and you're thinking about

487
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,439
Speaker 1: Dak and the way that he played, Kelly Moore had

488
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 1: a lot to do with that in his game plan

489
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: that he implemented so much about playoff football, as you know, Nick,

490
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: it just comes down to tightening up your game plan

491
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: and you can't go out there with a whole bunch

492
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,120
Speaker 1: of hocus pocus. Are you're gonna get beat obviously turning

493
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: the football over all, that will contribute. But he came

494
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,439
Speaker 1: in with a solid game play he did and his

495
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 1: left tackle gets hurt, you know, before halftime, and they

496
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:29,439
Speaker 1: do another shuffle over you know, the real telling play

497
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 1: there was. Go back to San Francisco playoff game last year.

498
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 1: One of the big the big issue was CD can't

499
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: get the ball. You can't. You gotta scheme him open.

500
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 1: And what happens at the end of the game after

501
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 1: the Bucks score and now you're starting to get a

502
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:46,639
Speaker 1: little bit of life. It's twenty four to six and

503
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 1: they get that drive and it's fourth and three. You know,

504
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 1: you can't kick field goal. I mean you can't. You know,

505
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 1: you can't forget big all right, You're not kicking it.

506
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,119
Speaker 1: He schemes up play to get a guy that's got

507
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: a hundred and seven catches in the regular season and

508
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: a second team All Pro wide the easiest touchdown a

509
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,399
Speaker 1: serious It was to the point where I was like,

510
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: oh my god, you're gonna drop this because it's oh no, no,

511
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 1: no faircatch, like he caught it, and I mean, but

512
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: he didn't scheme Noah Brown open or Turpin schemes CD

513
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,679
Speaker 1: and you know, maybe that's like bust in the coverage

514
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: or whatever, but Tampa's defense doesn't really bust like that.

515
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: So I thought, I thought, you're right. Great credit to

516
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 1: Kellyn and how he called the game. Yeah, and Kevin,

517
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 1: when you look at the way, well just the participation

518
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: last night by Ceedee Lamb. Did you think it was

519
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 1: one of those games where it was enough touches for

520
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 1: him not enough, or did you see or just that's

521
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 1: that was just the flow of the game. I think

522
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: it was just the flow of the game. I think

523
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott kill him more allowed the game to come

524
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 1: to them. They took what the defense gave them, and

525
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 1: if it meant Ceedee Lamb was having opportunity to get

526
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: schemed open, then that happened. If it was an opportunity

527
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 1: for you know, for Ferguson to get open whomever was

528
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: open based on what he was seeing, he made it happen.

529
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 1: I thought the way that they went about the game

530
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 1: plan was saying, we're going to take what the defense

531
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: gives us and we'll take advantage of it. Let's not

532
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 1: forget a CD dropped the first two passes a day. Yeah,

533
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 1: you know, so they did kind of scheme it there.

534
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 1: But but going back, you know, said Ferguson on that

535
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: that was a big play too, that that whole drive

536
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:18,679
Speaker 1: had had some great plays in it. But what I

537
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: loved about it was is, I mean CD is physical

538
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: down the field blocking. You know, it's a it's a

539
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: totally different play when you get tackled at the eighteen

540
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: yard line versus getting tackled at the six right and

541
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: that and that's what's a really nice jarring block by CD.

542
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 1: You don't look at him and think, oh hercules, you know,

543
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: like he's not gonna be blocking down but but he had,

544
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: you know, he had a nice block there that changed

545
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 1: everything and they were able to score, make it twelve

546
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 1: to nothing. Yeah, the moment for me in the game

547
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 1: because I was really paranoid about the way that Todd

548
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 1: Bows was going to approach this game plan because you know,

549
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 1: he can make any quarterback life a living hell. Uh.

550
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 1: He stacked the box and I was initially taken aback

551
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 1: by what Troy Egman was saying. You know, Dak looks nervous.

552
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 1: That's a lot of what Troy was saying. He looks

553
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: like he has a tight a little tight early. But

554
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 1: then you start to see him make those easy throws.

555
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: Kellen was designing things to get him in rhythm. But

556
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 1: it was late in the game and there's about third quarter,

557
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 1: beginning of the third quarter. He makes a pass to

558
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz and it was money. It was one of

559
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: those throws that we look at a Josh Allen, we

560
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 1: look at the Burrows, we look at all these other guys,

561
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 1: and we go, oh, he makes that throw in his sleep,

562
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: and that's what makes him what he is. Dak has

563
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: that signature throw. What did you think about that? Do

564
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 1: you remember that it was just a throw. It was

565
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: just on the sideline over the left sideline. Dalton shows

566
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: kind of bobbled it a little bit. He caught it twice. Yeah, yeah, exactly, Yeah, yeah,

567
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: right in front of the Bucks bench. Uh yeah, yeah yeah.

568
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: It was a gorgeous throw. I mean, that is another

569
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: play that you used to look at and say, oh,

570
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 1: Dak's on tonight. Like anything. He decided to dial up

571
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 1: his guys are gonna catch it. Dalton Schultz be the

572
00:29:58,160 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 1: heck of a grab there. But it was just a

573
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 1: perfect just dropped in the bucket on the sideline. And

574
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 1: your mind, Nick, because you covered Dak and you've covered

575
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 1: a lot of this roller coaster up and down? Is

576
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: this who he is what we saw last night? Are

577
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 1: you still saying all right, Yeah he came out, he

578
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: represented pretty good, but we're waiting on this. No, no, no,

579
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 1: this is this is who he is, and it's kind

580
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 1: of what I said before. This is this is the

581
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 1: style that he plays, this kind of free freestyle football,

582
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: backyard dackyard football, if you will. But sometimes it's not

583
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 1: not gonna work out for you. You know, these passes.

584
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 1: You know, he's been unlucky in some of the interceptions,

585
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: not all, and some of them that have been just

586
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 1: been unlucky. And then sometimes though he's not sometimes it's

587
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 1: gallops catching it, putting it right in there. They're not

588
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: knocking the ball in the air. So I think I

589
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 1: think we saw his potential, but something So there's gonna

590
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: be times when you play that way you're gonna I mean,

591
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: you you keep putting your hand over the stove. You

592
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 1: probably let's go happen. But that's how you have the

593
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 1: hot hand. Yeah there you go. Oh, I've never read

594
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: never there, I see it. There you just got just

595
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: I got your beat right now. You gotta do tell

596
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 1: me to hit it. I hit it for you. Yeah,

597
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 1: no one has ever accused me of rapping before, so

598
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 1: we're not gonna do it right now either. And so

599
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 1: what we're gonna do is we're gonna take our final

600
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: break on the media mash and be right back with uh.

601
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 1: I guess some some remedies for one Brett Maher coming

602
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 1: up after this. The season is finally here for months,

603

649
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: bright on Dak. And he has one heck of a

650
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 1: performance last night in Tampa. But I tell you who

651
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 1: did not have a heck of a performance. Yeah, and

652
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: that's my man, Brett, my her. I've been talking about

653
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: him now for a couple of hours, and everybody has

654
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 1: a different approach for how to deal with this, and

655
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:52,720
Speaker 1: for me, I can't. It's I have these things about football,

656
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 1: all right. If you're running back the fumbles, I don't

657
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 1: trust you. I don't like ya. I don't care how

658
00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: good you are. I just don't know. If you're a

659
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 1: quarterback act that has a bunch of turnof throw the

660
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 1: ball away, it just it sours me. Yeah, I don't

661
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 1: care how good you are. Just happens. You know how

662
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 1: much I loved Act. So just imagine the conflict I'm

663
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: having internally about this. If you are a field goal

664
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,360
Speaker 1: kicker and you're not making field goals, it's hard for

665
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 1: me to ride with you, dog, because I don't want

666
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: to feel bubble cuts about a pat. Yeah, like that

667
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: stuff to me is routine. I've heard Abo Garcia talk

668
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: about this like special teams. I don't want to think

669
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,080
Speaker 1: about special teams. I don't want to think about my kicker.

670
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to think about him. I want this

671
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 1: dude to be bred. Do you think I want to

672
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 1: go get a beer on the pat? I don't want

673
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,240
Speaker 1: to be sitting there pins and needles having a ritual

674
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: because I can't leave until you actually make this thing

675
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: he got people in my house. We're holding our hands up, like,

676
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 1: come on, we got to hold our hands on ball,

677
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 1: help him out. I mean to see Overton after they

678
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: made that last one. I mean it was like the

679
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 1: game winning field goal, and he was so excited. I

680
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 1: didn't see it, actually, but I hear buccaneer fans were cheering. Yeah,

681
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 1: it was a big loud cheer. Yeah, it was like

682
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 1: you can hear it comes to the television finally, you know.

683
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:16,359
Speaker 1: But I'm about body of work. And if you were

684
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 1: an average kicker all year, and if you were just

685
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 1: up and down, up and down, and then you have

686
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 1: a game like that, that's probably the last straw. But

687
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,120
Speaker 1: he wasn't you know, he was really good all year.

688
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 1: He made enough good ones. As Jerry said, he made enough,

689
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 1: made enough good. So you don't sound confident at all.

690
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 1: And what you're saying right now, oh, I'm never I'm

691
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 1: not confident. I don't get it right. But that's what

692
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 1: makes this thing weird. But I honestly, I know I

693
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 1: remember him in twenty nineteen. I've been kind of waiting

694
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 1: for this all season. Oh you wait for the other

695
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 1: He've been hurt before a little bit, so I'm kind

696
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: of waiting for this to have it happens with all kickers,

697
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:01,839
Speaker 1: you know. I mean they're all like that. But um

698
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 1: so I just look at it like I'm not making

699
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 1: any moves. And I don't know if adding a kicker

700
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 1: or the practice squad actually hurts you or helps you. Yeah,

701
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: you cover yourself a little bit. But if kicking is

702
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:18,319
Speaker 1: so psychological, where you getting in her head and having

703
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,800
Speaker 1: him look over his shoulder all that? You know, remember

704
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 1: what Bill Caver said to Greg Lloyd in an NFL

705
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,719
Speaker 1: Films video that they show all the time. He would

706
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:26,759
Speaker 1: just go up to him and he was just like,

707
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:32,840
Speaker 1: rush the quarterback, Okay, make the kick. It's as simple

708
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:39,399
Speaker 1: as that, Kevin, Look, I'm sorry. Around Saturday night, Yeah,

709
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a thought in your head about how

710
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,439
Speaker 1: tough this competition is going to be, and it's gonna

711
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,239
Speaker 1: come down to what you know about the NFL. The

712
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 1: margin for victory is very small. Yeah, and it's gonna

713
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 1: come down to something that as simple as it's gonna

714
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 1: be that simple, that's gonna be the difference between success

715
00:37:56,040 --> 00:38:00,040
Speaker 1: and failure. Where are you one of the team and

716
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 1: ten being the most confident one being I'm scared. I'm

717
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,879
Speaker 1: about a four point five. Oh you shake it. Yeah,

718
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 1: I'm scared, Like I'm gonna chalking up as to a

719
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: bad night at the office at the worst possible time,

720
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 1: and maybe for the rest of the team, like they

721
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 1: had against Washington, maybe he just needed to get this

722
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,399
Speaker 1: out of his system, and then as they get ready

723
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: to go to Santa Clara for Sunday, he'll be right

724
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,879
Speaker 1: where he needs to be. Because I mean, I had

725
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 1: some of the same thoughts you did. It's like, oh man,

726
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 1: this is Sarka twenty nineteen all over again. There was

727
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 1: a reason why it felt like I was ready to

728
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 1: run him out of town. But for the most part

729
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,279
Speaker 1: this year, he's been good. So I'm gonna lean on

730
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 1: what I've seen from him this year and hope that

731
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,799
Speaker 1: by the time they get to San Francisco that he's

732
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 1: going to be back to where he wants to be.

733
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 1: And I disagree with because I got because I got

734
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 1: no choice at this point, Like so we roll him

735
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 1: at this Yeah, I disagree with the point about at

736
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 1: the worst possible time, because I think it's at the

737
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 1: best possible time when they didn't need you to make

738
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 1: those kicks. We why some one happened in the playoffs, like, yeah,

739
00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 1: I get it, I mean, and they won't all be

740
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, And so if he's gonna turn it around,

741
00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: that's fine. But if you're gonna miss four, do it

742
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 1: when you your defense is shutting out Tom Brady. And

743
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:09,879
Speaker 1: because if they had been scoring a little bit there

744
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 1: after it's eighteen nothing now e eighteen to seven, eighteen

745
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 1: to ten, and then you score, now you think, okay,

746
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: we have a game. We're gonna have to go for

747
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,720
Speaker 1: two here exactly. But the fact that they're not scoring

748
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: and he's looking at it like I just gotta make

749
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: a kick, Like when it was twenty when it was

750
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 1: eighteen to nothing and we just saw that play to

751
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 1: gallop it was third and goal from the two. I'm thinking,

752
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 1: I'm running it up the middle, and if I don't

753
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: make it, I'm kicking a field goal right down here.

754
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 1: At nineteen yard field goal, you can you have to

755
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 1: really try to miss. The ball has no room to

756
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: go up, you know. But then, and I think that

757
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 1: would have helped him so much. I was actually fine

758
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: with twenty one to nothing. If he can make a

759
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 1: field goal right down the middle, or just make a

760
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: field goal, but they scored. You know, you have to

761
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 1: go and Gallop has a score touchdown, which is fine,

762
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 1: and of course they didn't. It's the extra points and

763
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 1: maybe you know, it's just something about this man, like

764
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: you said, getting it out of your system. Getting it

765
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,279
Speaker 1: out of your system is you know, eating bad taco

766
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 1: bell right, getting out of your system. Like for him,

767
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,600
Speaker 1: it was like, oh, you're sitting in this like you're

768
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,319
Speaker 1: in front of a national audience, millions watching all over

769
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 1: the world, and you are wedding the bed. And it

770
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 1: got to about the third one. When the fourth one missed,

771
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,160
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, this is he just he just

772
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,920
Speaker 1: he just melted like he was getting better though he

773
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 1: started hitting the post right. It's so as I'm with,

774
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: I'm with Kevin Head. I mean, you got you have

775
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 1: to roll with. I think what was very telling is

776
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 1: how you know Dak had the phenomenal game right he.

777
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 1: I think it was after that was it the second

778
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,279
Speaker 1: one that he missed. Dak's like, we need to go

779
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 1: for two. It's just like he had the collective thought

780
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 1: I think of everyone watching. He's like, Okay, it's not

781
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 1: his night tonight. We just gotta keep going. Go for

782
00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,839
Speaker 1: two and see what happened. Man, you guys are are

783
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 1: rate about the cornerbacks that are getting burn you know,

784
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: get another guy here, let's see his avior Rods. Let's

785
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 1: get another guy to do something. Now it comes down

786
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 1: to the kicker that you just saw completely go straight up. Now,

787
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 1: we don't want it to get in his head. We

788
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,959
Speaker 1: don't want him. It's a mental game. It is because

789
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,360
Speaker 1: you're gonna need him. You're going to need him. I

790
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,879
Speaker 1: need him to make a I didn't even make pats.

791
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 1: But you're talking about corners. None of those guys that

792
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: Peter drop like those guys other than Rhodes, but those

793
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,280
Speaker 1: other guys, you've never seen it, at least with Maher.

794
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 1: You've seen it. You've seen it happen this year. And

795
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:41,240
Speaker 1: so I know this sounds that sounds crazy because twenty percent,

796
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: twenty percent percentage for your extra point. It's not good,

797
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: not good, not good. No, If he doesn't make that

798
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 1: last kick, I think he got different issues. But he

799
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,279
Speaker 1: made it. He made it, He made it. He went

800
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,040
Speaker 1: right down the middle, he made it. He showed mentally,

801
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,160
Speaker 1: okay I can make this. Now he's gonna have to

802
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: do it again, you know. But he was missing in

803
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 1: pre game. I'm telling you, man, it was not Oh

804
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 1: it wasn't looking good in pre game either. It wasn't

805
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 1: looking good. Okay, So I don't know. I wonder if

806
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 1: he's I want to see his stat I don't worry

807
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 1: about the team on the grass, but I wonder his

808
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 1: stats on grass. I don't know that I know he

809
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,360
Speaker 1: missed a fifty nine yard or in Philly that's grass.

810
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. But I don't know all the misses.

811
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 1: But ironically, these are starting to look like a recurring theme.

812
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 1: You on grass, you're missing? Yeah, you know he hadn't

813
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 1: He hadn't made a kick at all in twenty twenty three,

814
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 1: Like until that fact. I love that. I love in

815
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,719
Speaker 1: my mind just was like what I was like, wait, yeah,

816
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 1: there you go, There you go. I got you. What's

817
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:50,799
Speaker 1: your resolute? Well, I'm not gonna make a field goal

818
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 1: or an extra point for about three weeks, Like what

819
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 1: I want to go to Washington. I'm gonna miss my

820
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 1: only kick there and I'm gonna miss the first four

821
00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 1: and then I might might make one at the end. Here.

822
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 1: I bet he is at a high school right now

823
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 1: kicking field goes. Maybe I hope for him, he needs

824
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 1: to relax. I hope he's taking his mind off ability.

825
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: Here let me say the woman thing we're talking about.

826
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:17,840
Speaker 1: Let me say this about maher one thousand percent respect

827
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 1: for what he did in the locker room after the

828
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 1: game at one hundred percent. I mean one thousand percent

829
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 1: is what I said. I'm not gonna go backwards. Um.

830
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:28,279
Speaker 1: He stood there, he waited. You know, there's a couple

831
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:29,799
Speaker 1: of guys want to talk to him, and here comes,

832
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 1: here comes the reporters. He's like, let's don't repeat ourselves here,

833
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:36,320
Speaker 1: let's let's let's sit. You know, everybody ready, okay, and

834
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 1: then he answers the questions. He's not happy at all

835
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 1: about what's going on, you know, he answers it right.

836
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,319
Speaker 1: Another guy asked the question. He was like, so, where

837
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 1: are you thinking after the first miss? And then what

838
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 1: we're thinking the second one? And he goes, you're just

839
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:49,319
Speaker 1: gonna stop there or you wanted me to you want

840
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 1: to go throw all of the missus? You know, thank

841
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,319
Speaker 1: you for just stopping it too, you know, And then

842
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,919
Speaker 1: so he talks for three or four minutes. That's great,

843
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,839
Speaker 1: and then NFL network shows up at another report. Did

844
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,879
Speaker 1: I already say this on there on here. Okay, when

845
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,200
Speaker 1: you do a couple shows a day, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah,

846
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,319
Speaker 1: and so he he could, you know, and then they're like, oh,

847
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,400
Speaker 1: we didn't get it. You know. It's like the r

848
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,479
Speaker 1: PR staff would have been tough. I'm sorry, you should

849
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,399
Speaker 1: have been here. Yeah, but he was like, no, it's fine,

850
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 1: go ahead, you know. And so the questions like, well,

851
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 1: what happened on the kick? He's got to go through

852
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 1: it again, you know, not not every player talked, you know,

853
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 1: after the game and all that. He stands there, faces

854
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 1: the music. That's what a professional does. So I respect

855
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:29,799
Speaker 1: him for that. And if you're out there and you're

856
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 1: and you're thinking, that's his job. He's supposed to do that.
