I didn't see to exactly. We're 20 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 3: talking about the Detroit game last night. He had two 21 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 3: kicks exactly that, like both just kind of scurred it 22 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 3: right inside the upright. And that game was a good 23 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 3: game though. That was a really really good game, and 24 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 3: I just kept thinking, the team will be here next weekend. 25 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 3: That's a good team right there. Both these teams are 26 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 3: I think created in that same image of just tough. 27 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 3: They'll battle you, they play physical like it's it's gonna 28 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 3: be an interesting game. But we'll get to all that. 29 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 3: We've got plenty of time to talk about that this 30 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 3: week as we get read extra day. Yeah we do, 31 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 3: because it's a Monday night game. So but but today 32 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 3: it is our job to break down what we saw yesterday. 33 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 3: Cowboys go down to the Eagles thirty four to six, 34 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 3: a game that I you know, there's been a lot 35 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 3: of games this year where in my opinion, the score 36 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 3: didn't really reflect what you saw in the field. And 37 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 3: to me, yes today was a similar thing, but for 38 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 3: different reasons. Because what I saw from the defense in 39 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 3: the second half, I mean the first half to me, 40 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 3: isn't reflected in the score. I thought the defense played 41 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 3: a pretty good game. But Philly put up thirty four points. 42 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 3: A lot of that came on turnovers by the offense, 43 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 3: but they put up thirty four points. What would be 44 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 3: the storyline of the game for you guys, Let's start 45 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 3: with you, Broy. 46 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 4: It was I think that they found something with overshown 47 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 4: as a rusher. I know we talked about it here 48 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 4: and I'm going to try in a thirty four to 49 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 4: six shellacking. I'm not gonna sit here and you know, 50 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 4: and just beat down something that's already beat down. This 51 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 4: team is not good enough. You saw it. Your talent 52 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 4: coren area, especially right now at quarterback. You just can't 53 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,519 Speaker 4: compete with the quarterbacks you have. You know, you've had 54 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 4: some problem. He had to make a spot start at 55 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 4: offensive tackle. The left tackle. Kid did a great job. 56 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 4: He had one bad play, had one bad play that 57 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 4: ended up being a sack. But we've talked about on 58 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 4: this show. Okay, now start to focus on some things, 59 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 4: some positive things for some young players, or some scheme 60 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 4: things you see different. I really appreciate the fact that 61 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 4: Mike Zimmer came up with a scheme that really confused 62 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 4: Hurts when it came to the double a gap look 63 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 4: with the blitz putting three linebackers in the middle and 64 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 4: then rushing one of them drop two and then mixing 65 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 4: up who they were going to rush. So you're going 66 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 4: to talk about positivity about as far as maybe some 67 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 4: defensive stuff that going forward overshown as a pass rusher. 68 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 4: I had a gut feeling that this guy and what's 69 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 4: kind of unfortunate for him is the touchdown right before 70 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 4: the half. He's got Hurts dead to rights and he 71 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 4: usually doesn't miss in space like that. He just overrat 72 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 4: He was so fast, I mean nobody picked him up 73 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 4: and so he was so fast it hurts and Hurts 74 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 4: did a really nice job of just what you see 75 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 4: how many times we watch quarterback drills in training camp. 76 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 4: We always work on, you know, taking the ball and avoiding, 77 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 4: and that's what Hurts was able to do. But I'm 78 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 4: looking at this, I'm looking at him as such a 79 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 4: positive light on something that's been so wrong all year, 80 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 4: you know, and I'm looking at I'm looking at awesome 81 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 4: Richards getting a start at left tackle when now, how 82 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 4: much reps did he really get? Maybe he got a 83 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 4: lot of reps because of the the next problem, the 84 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 4: next shoulder problem with Geyton, But he went out there 85 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 4: and played a whale of a game. I mean, Mozzie 86 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 4: Smith actually had three really good snaps where he looked 87 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 4: like an NFL defensive tackle. You know, He's like extending, 88 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 4: gets rid of Cam Jerg and just throws in basically 89 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 4: on the ground, stops it up. You know, makes a 90 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 4: player or two. You know, those are the things I'm 91 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,239 Speaker 4: looking for now because I know this team's not good enough. 92 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 4: I just know they're not good enough, and the storyline 93 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 4: is always going to be especially this year. The margin 94 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 4: of error is so small. You just can't, you know, 95 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 4: you just can't, you know, have anything. They can't. Nothing 96 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 4: comes easy, but the margin mirror is really small. I mean, 97 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 4: your kid out there at left corner, you know, the 98 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 4: double move is killing him. Now he's now fighting that 99 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 4: where they've realized that, Okay, you can't throw it at 100 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 4: Digs because Digs makes a damn good play. They got 101 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 4: exactly what they wanted on the route. I mean, it's 102 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 4: going to be a touchdown. Digs is just like, nah, no, 103 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 4: you're not. It's very similar to what Branch did to 104 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,840 Speaker 4: Dak in the Detroit game. It's like, wait a minute, 105 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 4: your eyes aren't overlooking at that flat, it's looking inside. 106 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 4: Hurts did the same thing and Digs made a hell 107 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 4: of a play. So you know, those are the things 108 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 4: you just kind of, you know, you kind of look 109 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 4: at as a positive aspect from the team. Yeah, it's 110 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 4: it does it's no good right now, just to can 111 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 4: this team is what it is. You just now have 112 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 4: to figure out what are the pieces going forward With 113 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 4: a lot of time left. I mean, there are a 114 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 4: lot of games I just don't feel they're going to 115 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 4: do very good. But at least I'm going to now 116 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 4: take the approach of like, Okay, it is what it is. 117 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 4: You don't have your quarterback, find me the players that 118 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 4: are going to be part of this future, and see 119 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 4: how they play the remainder this season. 120 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. 121 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 7: Well, yesterday for me marked the end of my grieving 122 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 7: period of like, Okay, now I'm in acceptance and this 123 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 7: is what we have and this is what it is, 124 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,239 Speaker 7: and that's it. Like yesterday, and I remember you post 125 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 7: a question whether we should start looking into the draft 126 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 7: and all that last week, but I was curious to 127 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 7: see if anything would change as far as the game 128 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 7: plan for the offense, and with you having a different quarterback, 129 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 7: that did not change. You showed up with basically the 130 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 7: same exact game plan and no adjustments, not type of 131 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 7: any type of creativity. We've been talking about that word 132 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 7: all throughout the season, but there was nothing different. Like, 133 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 7: I haven't seen Mike McCarthy do anything different as far 134 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 7: as a play caller, and when he has, like for example, 135 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 7: that package that he threw Trey Lensing for the first time, 136 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 7: it was like, what what are we doing here to 137 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 7: It was interesting, but it's just okay, you've accepted this, 138 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 7: outcome this and now you go into game. As far 139 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 7: as me, you go into game just relaxed and looking 140 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 7: for those moments, those exciting moments. 141 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: That will occur. 142 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 7: And it just goes to show once again, despite of 143 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 7: what some people think about Micah Parsons, he's still a 144 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 7: very important key player to these to this defense. It 145 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 7: is very clear when he's on the field versus when 146 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 7: he's not on the field, it changes everything. And I 147 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 7: think the way that they used the marming overshown was 148 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 7: clearly a new light there. And with the combination of 149 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 7: Micah Parsons, I think it makes me feel more excited 150 00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 7: into like, hopefully Micah's future is here in Dallas and 151 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 7: maybe the combination of this two together is an exciting 152 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 7: piece for this defense looking forward. But also it just 153 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 7: goes to show how important having a pass rush is 154 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 7: to your game, and this is something that the Cowboy's 155 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 7: defense has been lacking all year long, and it just 156 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 7: changes everything. It's unfortunate that your defense did basically all 157 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 7: they could do for you. But yet once again, you 158 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 7: can all get into the end zone. You cannot score touchdowns. 159 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 7: The offense is just unable to generate any kinds of 160 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 7: points other than those two field goals by Brandon Aubrey. 161 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 2: But you can't. 162 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 7: There's only so much you can ask a defense when 163 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 7: your offense is playing the way that it is. 164 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 2: And they are gonna get tired. 165 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,199 Speaker 7: They did everything they could in the first half, So 166 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 7: the second half, I mean, I'm not getting. 167 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 4: Mad at the stop coming out of half. They went 168 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 4: three and out coming out of half, and you're thinking like, okay, 169 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 4: maybe you could find a way to get something going. 170 00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 4: I think your assessment is absolutely right. 171 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,719 Speaker 3: You know. The interesting thing is if you look at 172 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 3: the defense, there really was only one point of consistent 173 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 3: failure in my opinion right now, that was the corner 174 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 3: I'm just saying position wise, that was the cornerback. They 175 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: kept going to the same spot because they that's where 176 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 3: they can go. But when you talk about the running game, 177 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 3: which we talked about last week, they didn't really have 178 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 3: the kind of day on the ground that you quarter 179 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 3: are going to have. The quarterback killed you more. And 180 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 3: I asked that question last remember I said, which one 181 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 3: do you worry more about in the rushing game, and 182 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,839 Speaker 3: but I think that it was clear that they had 183 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 3: a good game plan for how to bottle up Saquon 184 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 3: Barkley a great day against them, But it was really 185 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 3: more about that cornerback position. And that's where I look 186 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 3: at this defense and I'm like, for me, the defense 187 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 3: this year is all about injuries. The story of what 188 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 3: we've seen is all about injuries. You give them both 189 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 3: their cornerbacks, you give them their defensive ends, you give 190 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 3: them the linebackers, and what they could have figured out 191 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 3: with overshown, I think this defense plays a much different season, 192 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 3: and I think they're okay. The baffling thing for me 193 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 3: was what we saw yesterday with the offense and what 194 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 3: we've really seen all season with the offense, which is 195 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 3: a huge let down from the standpoint of what they 196 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 3: were last year to what they are this year. 197 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,719 Speaker 4: Cooper Rush looked like a guy that never started in 198 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 4: an NFL game yesterday. Yeah, you know, and that's that's 199 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 4: the unfortunately shot by that. Yeah I am, because to me, 200 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 4: when he came off the bench against Atlanta, man a 201 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 4: beautiful throw down the down the field of ceedee lamb 202 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 4: and all of a sudden it's CD. It just you know, 203 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 4: it gets too far. They had one to Tolbert. Those 204 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,199 Speaker 4: too far, I didn't understand. To me, that looked like 205 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 4: a guy that was very nervous about And maybe he 206 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 4: was nervous. Maybe you've talked about the offensive line all 207 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 4: year about it's the ability to protect, and maybe he 208 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 4: was worried about Ausome Richards over there, you know, and 209 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 4: maybe it's like get the ball. I'll get the ball, 210 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 4: you know. But there were a couple of times where 211 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 4: that he didn't get the ball out, you know, and 212 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 4: you know, a veteran quarterback dropping a snap, a simple 213 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 4: shotgun snap. They've got the play block. But you go 214 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 4: back and watch it. They got the play blocked. It's 215 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 4: going to be a toss going to the right. They 216 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 4: got the thing blocked. He just catched the ball and 217 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 4: hand it and hand it to or flip it to Dabble. 218 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 4: That's going to be a positive play. But yeah, they 219 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 4: to me, you know, you look at the interception that 220 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:18,319 Speaker 4: they had, the interception that that that Lance threw. Man, 221 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 4: he's got no business throwing that ball because to me, 222 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 4: you know, it's one of those things Tobert is just 223 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 4: getting mugged. I mean, there's just I mean, you're thinking, okay, 224 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 4: he's gonna win one on one ounce and that was 225 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 4: a backup corner. You know, that's that's ringo that he's 226 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 4: going on the backup corner. And he still didn't separate 227 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 4: off that. You know, he's getting mugged the whole way 228 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 4: down the field. And you know, Lance throws the ball 229 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 4: and you're like going why And then you know that 230 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 4: you mentioned Ambar about the stuff in the red zone, 231 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 4: the fumble. You know, the fumbles happens. Even if even 232 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 4: if he holds onto the ball, they're gonna get a 233 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,319 Speaker 4: holding call on span Fod. It's going to now make 234 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 4: it second in you know, second and thirteen from the 235 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 4: you know thirteen. So I mean it's it's our second 236 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 4: goal from the thirteen. They just can't they can't stay 237 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 4: out of their own way. I mean, they can't. They 238 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 4: just can't. It's it's just hard for them to do 239 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 4: anything with any I mean, the one they have like 240 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 4: one drive a game where they look like an NFL offense, 241 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 4: and then the rest of the time it's just it's 242 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 4: it's just it's it's just disheartening. YEP, it really is 243 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 4: all right. 244 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 3: We're gonna take our first break when we come back. 245 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 3: I want to talk a little bit deeper about Cooper 246 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:33,079 Speaker 3: Rush and if what you saw yesterday was more of 247 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 3: a reflection of the game plan, because I don't think 248 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: there were a lot of quick, quick check down type 249 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 3: routes that they were running. Or do you think there 250 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 3: were some opportunities downfield that he just didn't see, they 251 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 3: didn't choose to take, or the pass rush got to him. 252 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 3: We'll talk about that when we come back.

All right, 314 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 3: let's talk a little bit more about the quarterback position. 315 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 3: I haven't been able to watch the full game back, 316 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 3: I've gotten about halfway through it. One thing that I 317 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 3: did notice was that it seemed like a lot of 318 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 3: the routes that they were running, a lot of the 319 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 3: plays that they ran were designed plays to get the 320 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 3: ball out quick. Is that what you've seen as well? 321 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 4: Yeah? 322 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 3: And do you think this was a situation where that 323 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 3: was the game plan? Because maybe it's because of Austin 324 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 3: Richards and they were a little afraid. Maybe it's because 325 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 3: of the whole offensive line, because offensive line hasn't been 326 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 3: great all year. 327 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 4: That's a good point. 328 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 3: Or is it a situation where there were opportunities downfield 329 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 3: and and and Cooper just missed them. 330 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 4: There weren't many opportunities down the field. They didn't try 331 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 4: to throw the ball down the field. It was very 332 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 4: reminiscent of the Atlanta game plan, where everything was short 333 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 4: and hopeful run after catch. So there really wasn't anything 334 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 4: of some you know, those massive deep shot. The one 335 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 4: deep shot that they did take down the field. They well, 336 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 4: they tried one on third down to Brooks that bounce. 337 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 4: Then Cooper had a ball that was short, another ball 338 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 4: that was short to Brooks. On the other sidelines. He 339 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 4: had Ceedee Lamb open on a on a vertical route 340 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 4: that they they missed. But other than that, everything was 341 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 4: zero to nine and hope that maybe you get a 342 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 4: broken tackle and get more yards out of it. Everything 343 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 4: was pretty much quick at the quick, the curls, the hitches, 344 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 4: some drag stuff, but nothing that that would give the Eagles. 345 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 4: They they must have been really, really, really nervous about 346 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 4: this pass rush, but I think for the most part 347 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 4: they held up pretty pretty well, you know, for the 348 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 4: pressures and stuff that they were a couple of times, 349 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 4: like I say, we're you know that the one sack 350 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 4: that that Austome Richard gave up. It was his worst 351 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 4: technique of the game. You know, he was over the 352 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 4: tops of his feet, he was overextended, he couldn't adjust, 353 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 4: and it happened to be a sack. 354 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 10: You know. 355 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 4: But that's you know, that's that they they needed to 356 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 4: have something planned to go more down the field. I 357 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 4: wish they would have tried to keep on running the 358 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,360 Speaker 4: ball a little bit more, but you know, the game 359 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 4: gets out of hand for him. And once the game 360 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 4: gets out of hand for him, then Mike turns into Okay, 361 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 4: we have to throw it now, but we're not throwing 362 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 4: it with any any type of purpose. You threw it 363 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 4: with some purpose when Rush came in in the Atlanta game, 364 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 4: because you had no choice. Well, yesterday it just it wasn't. 365 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 4: It wasn't a very good game from recognition and acory standpoint. 366 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 4: I mean, there was a time where they just remembering 367 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 4: they run a route inside there. They had a couple 368 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 4: of weird plays where they run the ball. You remember 369 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 4: CD runs and doesn't see he doesn't turn around and 370 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 4: get the ball. It's like they're running a screen. They're 371 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 4: setting up a screen and Cooper rushed through it. Like 372 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 4: it was a regular route. 373 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 3: And CD was actually looking he was. 374 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 4: Blocking the block, and you got lineman peeling out and 375 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 4: a bat and you got Dabele is like checking and 376 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 4: then going to his right, and now the ball is 377 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 4: being thrown over the middle of the field and Lamon 378 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 4: even looking for the ball, and you're like, going, the 379 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 4: hell was that busted play? But everybody else is running 380 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 4: screen but the quarterback right, so you know, I mean, 381 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 4: it's the one guy that needs to run the screen 382 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 4: is not running the screen. And then he had the throw. 383 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 4: They had a double they had a double end cut. 384 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 4: He threw the ball too high to Tobart early in 385 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 4: the game. It almost got intercepted h Tolbert's open and 386 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 4: if he doesn't like Tobert, he's got Turpin right behind that. 387 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 4: And a throw that he made in the Atlanta game 388 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 4: on four down inside to get a first down. He 389 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 4: passed on it, but he threw the ball way too 390 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 4: high and over the top of Tolbert's head. He just 391 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 4: looked like a quarterback that it was making his first start, 392 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 4: and that's unfortunate because he's he's played quite a bit. 393 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 4: When you when you think about, you know, for a 394 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 4: backup quarterback. 395 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, there's some type. 396 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 7: Of disconnect happening there because and we again we talked 397 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 7: about it last week. You expect your backup quarterback to 398 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 7: be ready to go and not looked like that, especially 399 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 7: for a guy like him who has done it before. 400 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 2: And I the crazy thing to me is that there 401 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 2: wasn't It didn't. 402 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 7: Look like a big, like much of a drop off 403 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 7: between your starter deck and then Cooper Rush and then 404 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 7: Trede Lance to add him to the mix. And that 405 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 7: just goes to show One, I'm not gonna talk about 406 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 7: the play calling because I keep mentioning that I've hated 407 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 7: the play calling all year long. But two, it once 408 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 7: again illustrates your point, Derek, with this offensive line, and 409 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 7: I'm not trying to put everything on them, because obviously 410 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 7: a lot of it falls back into the quarterback and 411 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 7: some of the decisions that they're making. But at the 412 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 7: same time, it seems like you need so much protection 413 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 7: in order for you to try to get anything going 414 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 7: for this offense. And whoever the quarterback is behind that line, 415 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 7: and I don't know how you solve this quickly. It's 416 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 7: not gonna happen. It doesn't seem it's gonna happen this year, 417 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 7: even though there are moments where you see players have 418 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 7: good blocking and all of that. But at the same time, 419 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 7: it's just I think maybe this is something that is 420 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 7: starting to be just creating some panic mentally that you 421 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 7: feel like you're gonna get attacked, somebody's gonna come brushing, 422 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 7: and it's just like it doesn't allow you to fully 423 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 7: focus on what you need to do and like fully 424 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 7: look at what's happening on the play and on the field. 425 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 2: But there's so many layers to this. 426 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 7: Because then that leads me to think, also, while we've 427 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 7: talked about the separation and the wide receivers, the receivers 428 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 7: trying to find some separation. So it's just like a 429 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 7: crazy combination of everything happening all that once. 430 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 3: But I also think, and this is me just looking 431 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 3: at the separation issue, if you want to just focus 432 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 3: in on that, I don't think the types of routes 433 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 3: that they're being asked to run lead to situations where 434 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,120 Speaker 3: they're going to get much separation. They run a bunch 435 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 3: of stick routes, a bunch of just like it's it's 436 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 3: they're not designed like there was a Philly played a 437 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 3: lot of men yesterday, and I'm like, why are they 438 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 3: not doing more crossing routes to be able to take 439 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 3: advantage of that. But even when they did run crossing routes, 440 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 3: it was one of those situations where a quarterback early 441 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 3: in the game, there's one crossing route I think it 442 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,719 Speaker 3: was CD, and he had some separation. Yea quarterback never 443 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 3: saw him, never got the ball to him. By the 444 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 3: time he did get the ball to him, it was 445 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 3: a little too late the defender it caught up. And 446 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,959 Speaker 3: so it's like, there's always something that kind of messes 447 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 3: up whatever you're trying to do. I don't think they 448 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 3: have they don't run enough routes consistently enough. They give 449 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,479 Speaker 3: their wide receivers an opportunity to create separation, and then 450 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 3: when they do, quarterback doesn't see it in time, don't 451 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 3: get the ball out, or pressure gets there sack right. 452 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 3: It's like there's always something. But I don't think the 453 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 3: separation issue is just about receivers not being able to 454 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 3: get free. I think a lot of that is about 455 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 3: how they're they're what they're being asked to do, the 456 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:40,479 Speaker 3: routes are being asked to run. 457 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 4: Here's a scary thought we've already started talking about the 458 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 4: draft and Travis Hunter from Colorado. Yeah, you just even 459 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 4: wonder if if you had if you had Travis Hunter 460 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 4: in this offense, would you be able to run routes 461 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 4: to take advantage of how good he is playing on 462 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 4: the move? I think there's there's some there are some issues. 463 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 4: You do not have a two on this, but you don't. 464 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 4: You just don't, you know. And and when you look 465 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,719 Speaker 4: at you know, when you look at it, though, they 466 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 4: need somebody that's really more explosive than what they've got. 467 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 4: The the thought of maybe, well, you know, well, it's Cooks, 468 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 4: it's Tollbird, it's Brooks, it's it's really just Lamb, it's 469 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 4: they They they might have to completely relook at this 470 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 4: wide receiver room and it but they might look at 471 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 4: it and then they might not be able to completely 472 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 4: turn it over. But it might turn into maybe a 473 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 4: different and and and we'll see, We'll see what happens 474 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 4: at the end of the year. Because somebody might come 475 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 4: in here and have an idea of like, Okay, this 476 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 4: is how I would use this is how I would 477 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 4: use Tulbert, or this is how I'd use Turpin, or 478 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,239 Speaker 4: this is how I would use lamb. You know, they 479 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 4: they they You're right, the stick routes, the hitches, the 480 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 4: the curls. There's nothing that gets these guys on the 481 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 4: move where you know. I mean, like I said, the 482 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 4: one that passed that they got guys on the move, 483 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 4: the passing over through the middle of the field of Tolbert, 484 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,400 Speaker 4: they had him and Turpin both breaking inside and both 485 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 4: are open. So all of a sudden you get separation. 486 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 4: You get what you want, but you can't complete the 487 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 4: pass yep, you know what that's That's sometimes the issue 488 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 4: here that you actually get something you want, but then 489 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 4: something else happens to keep the play from being We've 490 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,239 Speaker 4: talked about some of these screen passes, like if they 491 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 4: could just complete the screen, it's going to be a 492 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 4: huge game. But no, they don't get the block they need, 493 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 4: or the guy the back sets inside instead of setting outside. 494 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 4: You know, it's a lot of things with this team. 495 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 3: You know, another play where I think route running and 496 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 3: recognition got got someone open and then the play just 497 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 3: fell apart. Was the play that everybody's talking about with 498 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 3: the light that Yeah, if you notice, if you watch Ferguson, 499 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 3: Ferguson actually ran a really good route there because he 500 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 3: was going out, he was double covered. He quickly shot 501 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 3: back in side. That's why he was where you supposed to. 502 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 3: I don't think it was designed like well. I think 503 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 3: he went back to an open space and he probably 504 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 3: could have cut that ball, I think, but he was 505 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 3: back into an open space. If the quarterback throws him 506 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 3: and hits him with that pass, that's a touchdown. 507 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 4: It's easy. 508 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 3: And it was a great route. Recognizing he has double covered, 509 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 3: you keep going outside and you have double coverage, shoot 510 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 3: back into the inside, and that's what he did, and 511 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 3: it just ends up. 512 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, it's funny because he was double covered and 513 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 4: I think the rush wanted to go to him initially 514 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 4: and he and he got caught. He saw the flash 515 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 4: of or cd CD went from shadows into a little 516 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 4: bit of sun to being all my son to being 517 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 4: on the sun or the light, right, I'm sorry, just 518 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 4: the light. But so if you if if the if, 519 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 4: the if the throw off the jump is cd CD 520 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 4: in the before he gets to the light, it's a 521 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 4: touch right, because so now he's in between and I 522 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 4: think Cooper got caught in between. Do I throw it 523 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 4: to Ferguson because of the double coverage or whoa wait 524 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 4: a minute, and now he's kind of like, you know, 525 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 4: doing one of those, and you know, Lamb is kind 526 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 4: of like, honestly, you know, it was tough. It was 527 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 4: tough down there, It really was. 528 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 7: Yeah, it just this feels like one of those things 529 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 7: that you start pointing out one thing, but then that 530 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 7: thing leads you to another thought, and it's just another 531 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 7: thought and then you just keep going in the same 532 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 7: vicious circle that you're just start going crazy, like there's 533 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 7: no easy, quick solution here and it's just not one 534 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 7: piece or there's so many different components and like, like 535 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 7: you said, that's a clear example. And we've seen another 536 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 7: one that when they or also we talked about this 537 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 7: on the break, I think on the actual break between commercials. 538 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we're on the break. 539 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 2: We are on the break. 540 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 7: But this whole thing, like when they do have something 541 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 7: that's kind of working for them, they stop and it's 542 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 7: just like it just doesn't make. 543 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 4: It any Philadelphia was having some problems during the year 544 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 4: of defending the draw and then the nineteen yard run 545 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,880 Speaker 4: you had was a draw play because they're so they're 546 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 4: so conscious of getting up the field and then you 547 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 4: get blockers in place, and then you know you've got 548 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 4: a tough runner and you know they're able to gain yards. 549 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 4: But there were some opportunities you just you just it 550 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 4: gets away from you. And I can say that that 551 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 4: affects the play caller. 552 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 3: All Right, we're gonna take our final break.

Final segment of the Break live from the 619 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 3: SWBC Mortgage studios at the Star. Let's talk about Trey 620 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 3: Lance yesterday when he got into the game, his four 621 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:33,719 Speaker 3: six sixty seven percent completion rate, only twenty one yards passing, 622 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 3: one interception, thirty two point six rating. 623 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 4: He took, He gambled, he did, He gambled that his 624 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 4: guy was going to get there, and this guy just 625 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 4: could not get there. 626 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 3: But he did have three carries for seventeen yards. My 627 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 3: question was more no, why to me? Yeah, exactly, But 628 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 3: my question was more why was the timing weird for 629 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 3: everybody else when they decided to get him in Because 630 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 3: we've been talking all week about the possibility of a package. 631 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 3: My thought is it's a critical down. My thought is 632 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 3: you're in the red zone. My thought is, like, there 633 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 3: are moments in the game where it makes sense to 634 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 3: trick it up a little bit starting a series, bringing 635 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 3: him in for two plays where one of them he runs, 636 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 3: which okay, great, and the other one he hands the 637 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 3: ball off. Felt a little weird to me. 638 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 4: What do you guys think you got anything? 639 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 7: Embar just random that just okay, you know, things just 640 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 7: come out of my mouth sometimes be careful. Well, it's 641 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 7: just one of those things that you just say, nothing 642 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 7: is working. Let me just throw him in there and 643 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 7: see if it were like it just goes to me, 644 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 7: it just illustrates the how do you say when you're 645 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 7: not prepared, the lack of preparation, the lack. 646 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 2: Of you knowing your team and. 647 00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 7: What your strengths and weaknesses are, like that just is 648 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 7: just you trying to make something out of nothing, but 649 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 7: without a plan, just hoping that something will work out. 650 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 7: So it's just to me, just illustrate its lack of 651 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 7: preparation there. 652 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that it's it's difficult because you were 653 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 4: behind and maybe the opportunity. Now, let's be honest, so too, 654 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 4: we've seen Trey Lance down in the red zone and 655 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 4: training camp, and we've seen him in preseason games and stuff, 656 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 4: and it hasn't always been successful. Maybe where maybe where 657 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 4: the opportunity to put Trey Lance in there is once 658 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 4: you've got the ball down there, you know, the Zeke 659 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 4: fumble that maybe that would have been the opportunity, like, Okay, 660 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 4: let's let's see how well they really defend the read 661 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 4: option here. You know, let's see if they can. You know, 662 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 4: you're throwing something different. You're thinking, oh, it's Cooper, gonna 663 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 4: be Cooper Rush. We're going to put you know, we 664 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 4: have to defend the pass. All of a sudden, you 665 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 4: throw a her ball at him and you say, Trey Lance. 666 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 4: Now it's the thread of he's going to ride it, 667 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 4: you're gonna crash, and now he's gonna walk in. That's 668 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 4: where I would have tried to do something with Trey Lance, 669 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 4: just maybe. But it might also be where they're thinking, well, 670 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 4: we've seen not great things. I mean, the Vegas game 671 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 4: was one of his better games when it came to 672 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 4: dealing with that. It looked like it was a much 673 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 4: more improved player than it was against the Rams, which 674 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 4: again another preseason game. But if you're in your mind, 675 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 4: you're thinking, God, could he make a mistake down here? Well, 676 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 4: if you knew that Zeke was going to fumble the ball, 677 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 4: you would have probably just said, well, just go and 678 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 4: play Trey Lance and let's see what see what happens. 679 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 4: I think you have to kind of find ways two 680 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 4: a way to have used him in certain situations where 681 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 4: it made it like, okay, let's put the thread of it. 682 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 4: It's a third and two where it's a you know, 683 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 4: you never really got in these situations. Seemed like there 684 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 4: were a lot of long yard situations yesterday. So I 685 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 4: would have kind of just tried to find spots where 686 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 4: it made sense to maybe make the Eagles have to 687 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 4: defend the run and the pass right and instead of 688 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 4: just putting him in. But to me, now, I'm interested 689 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 4: in playing him the rest of the way. And I'm 690 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 4: interested in playing him the rest of the way and 691 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 4: then trying to run a college offense. Make people have 692 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 4: to prepare for the read option, make people have to, 693 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 4: you know, to do some things. You know, with his 694 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 4: running him that design run, he had direct snap drop back, 695 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 4: you know, direct snap drop back, boom, eleven yards. All right, 696 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 4: here we go. That's design runs. Those are good plays, 697 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 4: you know, those are I think those are what we 698 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 4: need to see going forward with Cooper Rush. I I 699 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 4: just I just the upside of it there, I don't 700 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 4: see it. I would rather give me more options, more 701 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,320 Speaker 4: elements to maybe moving the football. And that's why I 702 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:55,320 Speaker 4: think I would play. 703 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:58,840 Speaker 2: Trailer because I feel like we know what Cooper Rush is. 704 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, he and he was an that that I didn't 705 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 4: recognize that guy yesterday though, But again I. 706 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 7: Think some of it attributes to the offense in general 707 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 7: being so often what he had then and you know 708 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 7: that was very different from that year when he was 709 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 7: being the backup during Dax's injury. But with Trey Lance, 710 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 7: there is a whole unknown yet that we have. We're 711 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,240 Speaker 7: still we still have quite a few question marks around 712 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 7: him and hoping to see maybe at some point it 713 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 7: starts clicking. Because he does have an arm like he 714 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 7: he can make he can throw some really good passes, 715 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 7: but it's just so inconsistent. And then you add into 716 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,360 Speaker 7: the mix his ability to run. That's another thing that 717 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 7: I thought there was a lack of usage yesterday. What 718 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 7: I would have liked to see more intention behind it. 719 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, the way the way to maybe beat Philadelphia yesterday 720 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 4: was running the football. And if you could have done 721 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 4: it with Trey Lance and then done it with Rico 722 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,080 Speaker 4: Daddle you know, and maybe you've done it with some 723 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 4: jet sweeps with Turpin or whoever else that might have 724 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 4: been the way. Maybe it's not a thirty you know, 725 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 4: maybe it's not a thirty four to six game. Maybe 726 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 4: it's a twenty one sixteen game or twenty four to sixty. 727 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 4: It's not a you know, something that looks because the 728 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 4: three and outs just kept killing the defense every time 729 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 4: that they went three and out. You know, I mean, 730 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 4: here's McCarthy, they get the interception with Digs and they 731 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 4: go three and out and you're just like, you just 732 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 4: put your defense back out there after making a great stop. 733 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 4: You don't even give them time to get a cup 734 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 4: of gatorade and catch their breath. You put them right 735 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 4: back out there again. And that's the unfortunate thing about 736 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 4: it is needed. They needed balance, and because we interviewed 737 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 4: Tracy Wolfson from CBS before the game, and you know, 738 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 4: she talks to the coaches and stuff, and that's the 739 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,240 Speaker 4: one thing they're saying, Hey, we have to have some balance. 740 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,720 Speaker 4: These losses they just have no balance. 741 00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 3: And I mean, let's be honest too, Like I think 742 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 3: the probably because the team has played so poorly. I 743 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 3: think one of the major things about yesterday that really 744 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 3: hasn't been talked about, but to me is probably the 745 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 3: biggest thing and why they lost is five turnovers. Yea, 746 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 3: like unless you're yeah, unless your a Lion's from last 747 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 3: night when that had figured out a way to get 748 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 3: a win on the road, Like you you have five 749 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 3: turnovers in a game and you lose the turnover battle 750 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 3: five to one, like the likelihood of you winning unless 751 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 3: you're just a really really good team, which Dallas has 752 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 3: not proven to be this year. Like that's that's the 753 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 3: story of the game. I mean that that defense just 754 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 3: got to put into too many bad situations for them 755 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:36,879 Speaker 3: to continue to hold. And they were playing really well, 756 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 3: but when you're getting the ball, when the other team 757 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 3: is getting the ball on your twenty, like it's just like, 758 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 3: come on, there's not much. 759 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 6: You can do with that. 760 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 7: And that's the upsetting part. When you see your own 761 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 7: defense finally doing something getting the ball back for you 762 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:53,399 Speaker 7: and you're still unable to do anything. 763 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 2: I mean that that's exhausting. I can only imagine how 764 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 2: they felt. 765 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,320 Speaker 4: That after that interception that they got. They know, just 766 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,479 Speaker 4: get him two first downs, get you kill. Kill. About 767 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:05,839 Speaker 4: five minutes off the clock, you know, six minutes off 768 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 4: the clock if you can and give the defensive chance 769 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 4: to regroup, you know, they but I will say is defensively, 770 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 4: Mike Zimmer did some things yesterday that I was like 771 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 4: I said early in the opening that I liked with 772 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:18,879 Speaker 4: the blitz packages and I liked with him getting over 773 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 4: shown involved in they and they think so going forward, 774 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,839 Speaker 4: that to me is a positive thing. Offensively, I can't 775 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 4: really think of anything other than the fact that Austome 776 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 4: Richard's on a probably on a spot start, played really 777 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 4: really well for at left tackle. 778 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,359 Speaker 3: Speaking of overshowing, obviously he had a really great game 779 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 3: that we don't know what the injury is. It sounds 780 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 3: like it's not that serious. 781 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 4: He is the game. In the post, he sounded like 782 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 4: he was ready to be ready to play. 783 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 3: He did come back in the game, he said. I 784 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 3: think it sounded more like they precautionary, precautionary thing to 785 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:49,959 Speaker 3: kind of just pull him for the fourth quarter, because 786 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 3: at that point they're like, it's not going to change anything, 787 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,400 Speaker 3: but just looking at him and how they use him, Like, 788 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 3: what are your thoughts about him for the rest of 789 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,400 Speaker 3: the year, knowing that, like, how do you how do 790 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 3: you feel about a player like him who's relatively young. 791 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 4: He's a rookie. 792 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 3: Playing really well, right, playing really well, but you also 793 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 3: like you're putting him out there in games where you 794 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 3: know you're you're using him and using in a lot 795 00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:12,760 Speaker 3: of different ways. How do you worry at all about 796 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 3: his his health going down the street? 797 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 4: He plays nine hundred miles an hour. Matter of fact, 798 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 4: he there was a pass play that the one ball 799 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 4: on a third down that went to Berkley in the flat, 800 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 4: and and and then and Kendricks was kind of hesitating. 801 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 4: Man thirteen comes flying from the middle of the field 802 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:35,320 Speaker 4: and he misses the tackle and he blows up Kendricks. 803 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,839 Speaker 4: I mean, Kendricks is like standing and just got hit 804 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 4: by a car, you know, goes flying back. That's just 805 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 4: how this kid plays you you. You know, Mike even 806 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,640 Speaker 4: talked about it after the game. How the energy that 807 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 4: he plays with, the passion that he plays with. You know, 808 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 4: that's just he's just a great example of what this 809 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 4: defense could be, you know, with him and Micah. You know, 810 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,400 Speaker 4: I'll tell you Carl Lawson played well again for you today. 811 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 4: So you know, you've got some guys that are really 812 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 4: on the defensive side of the ball. That gave some 813 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,800 Speaker 4: great effort and unfortunately didn't work out for him. But 814 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 4: the thing with overshown, he plays so hard that there's 815 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 4: probably going to be games where he's sitting on the 816 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,360 Speaker 4: field and you know, doctor Cooper and everybody in Britt 817 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 4: Brown and Jim Mauer running out to make sure he's okay, 818 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 4: and then he's going to pop up. You know, that's 819 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 4: just how he plays. He's one of those types of guys. 820 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, very very aggressive and one of the few bright 821 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,880 Speaker 7: spots on the team right now. That gives gets you 822 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:39,399 Speaker 7: excited because the great thing about him is him being 823 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:42,720 Speaker 7: out all year last year, then coming back from the injury. 824 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 7: Since the moment he got back on the field, from 825 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,360 Speaker 7: the beginning of the season, he's been impactful and he 826 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 7: the good thing. He's had bad moments too, we've seen that, 827 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 7: but again, his arrow keeps trending upwards. Everything since week 828 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 7: one till now, you keep seeing him improve and improve 829 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:03,280 Speaker 7: and improve. 830 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:06,920 Speaker 2: So that's just very very exciting to see that. 831 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 7: And then now, like we talked about at the beginning, 832 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 7: with the addition of Mikey Parsons coming back and just 833 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 7: seeing what that looked like with those packages and seeing 834 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:19,240 Speaker 7: how he can now start to shine in a different 835 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 7: way in this defense and create those pressures.
