We have football players arriving on the field 24 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 3: for the start of practice.

Oh better? 31 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, before it was I didn't do it. 32 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 5: Well, something happened, something did happen, and I saw you 33 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 5: touch something. 34 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 2: You know. 35 00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 3: That's mean I was trying to figure out, I'm good 36 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 3: start hearing people. 37 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 5: And Carson missed this last game with a shoulder injury, 38 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 5: and yesterday for practice he was limited, which was a 39 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 5: step in the right direction that he did not practice 40 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 5: all last week. So when Mike was asked about Carson 41 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 5: and you know, his deal and for practice, and he 42 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,799 Speaker 5: said he needs to make a big step today. Now 43 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 5: I don't know if he's bluffing or just doesn't want 44 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 5: to come clean, but he said, I can't tell you 45 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 5: either way at this point. Well you think so that 46 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 5: made me think, hmm, limited might have been the reason 47 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 5: he was limited, right, and maybe not ready, which means 48 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 5: that they're probably gonna you know. 49 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 2: Well, it sounds like frustration from the coaches point of view. 50 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 5: It did a little bit, So we'll see, I guess 51 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 5: what he's able to do today when they practice in pads. 52 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 5: So that stuck stuck out to me. 53 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 2: You know. 54 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 5: The other thing he was talking about, he thought the 55 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:12,839 Speaker 5: running game you know better last week. Uh, he said 56 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 5: it was their best day so far. But they're built 57 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 5: to stop the run and they'll attack you even when 58 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 5: you go play action. So it's gonna be a pretty 59 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 5: good matchup because each team has got some injury situations going. Uh, 60 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 5: their offensive line is beat up, and their defensive line. 61 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 5: If you count Alex high Smith as a defensive lineman, 62 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 5: he's outside linebacker. However they line up, he's gonna be 63 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 5: out with a groin injury. And their backup Nick Herbig 64 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 5: has an ankle and he didn't practice yesterday. So maybe 65 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 5: that things will even out the amount of injuries were 66 00:03:58,560 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 5: going into this. 67 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 2: Have t J. 68 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 3: Watt and Michael Parsons is not supposed to play right. Yeah, 69 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 3: so both so maybe it does it even out. 70 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 5: What do you mean. 71 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 3: They have t J. 72 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 2: Watt? 73 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 5: Well, now you can just concentrate, you can just concentrate on. 74 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 3: We're going if we're going to talk about pass rushers. Yeah, 75 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 3: they haven't advantage this game, Yes they do. 76 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 5: Well, he's got three sacks in four games. I'll take that. 77 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 5: If he only gets one sack. 78 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 3: You'll take you. 79 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 2: If you. 80 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 5: Okay with one track, I'll take. 81 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 3: Over the course of the season. That would only be 82 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 3: like a fourteen sack season instead of a nineteen. 83 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 5: Saxieson that's that's a win for me. 84 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 3: If he on, which he's had before. 85 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 4: And as long as and it's not just that he 86 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,799 Speaker 4: disrupts all running plays come to his side. 87 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 5: You know what I noticed. I was watching some of 88 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 5: the early plays against the Colts. Uh, they ran the 89 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 5: other way and they didn't block him in the running game. 90 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 5: They let him dive in from the backside. He made 91 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 5: a couple of tackles from behind, but at least they 92 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 5: gained three or four yards. They weren't really running right 93 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 5: at them. 94 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 4: I think, you know, you probably use all your resources 95 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 4: to concentrate on the vicinity you I mean, if he's 96 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 4: coming from backside by Timmy gets there like you said 97 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 4: you should. 98 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 5: If you blocked it well on the front side. 99 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 4: And that you can use all your resources to concentrate 100 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 4: on the hole that needs to be opened. 101 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 5: The other thing that I noticed is the Colts were 102 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 5: not stupid pass blocking. They put two guys over there 103 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 5: and sometimes even turn the guard that way and let 104 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 5: the center take care of the defensive tackle. Other times 105 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 5: they chipped them and he was primarily Now they might 106 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 5: switch them around. I didn't get to watch enough of it, 107 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 5: but he was on Terrence Steele's side. He was on 108 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 5: their left. So we'll see if they say, hmm, let 109 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 5: me see where the soft spot is right and go 110 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 5: to the site. But if they do, you just got 111 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 5: to motion the tight ends over to that side or 112 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 5: now the other thing I saw them do and I 113 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 5: thought this was interesting. Their safety Deshaun Elliott Texas, is 114 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 5: that right now? 115 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 6: Texas and Rockwall Heath High School? Oh, Rockwall I didn't 116 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 6: realize that. Uh, they line up what lot wide and 117 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 6: if there's a gap between him and the defensive tackle. 118 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 6: A lot of times Elliott is in that gap and 119 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 6: he's he's blitzing a lot of time. So that gives 120 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 6: you an idea. 121 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 5: Of Okay, if you think you're going to double team 122 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 5: over there, well who's picking up the safety in the slot? 123 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 2: Well, now that's that's been real. 124 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 4: The They will probably attack just like they attack anyone 125 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 4: else when it comes to the run. 126 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: But whatever the Coat did. 127 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 4: We can't do what the Colts when it comes to 128 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 4: the running game, we just don't do that. 129 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 2: They're much better running the ball. Had a thousand yard 130 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 2: Russia last year. 131 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 4: I think they was when he made it, because I 132 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 4: know he got injured a little bit, but he did. 133 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: He had a thousand yard seasons onto his belt. 134 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 4: And so their their running style is going to be 135 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 4: a whole lot different from ours. We're going to have 136 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 4: to tack it a whole different way simply because we're 137 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 4: just not as good at it. 138 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 5: But although they only only ran for I think eighty 139 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 5: eight yards in that game, they were throwing the ball, 140 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 5: So that means you got to protect and that'll be 141 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 5: that'll be a big. 142 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 3: Chore for Jonathan Taylor not only had a thousand yard 143 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 3: season in his career, or had a couple of them. 144 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 3: He had an eighteen hundred yards season, but that's been 145 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 3: three years ago. Last year, to your point, he had 146 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 3: only played ten games with seven starts and seven hundred 147 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 3: and forty one yards. But Cowboys showed signs of improving 148 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 3: their run game on offense in the game against the Giants. 149 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 5: Mike said it was their best day and no, we 150 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 5: could have figured that out. 151 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Boar's kind of low. 152 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 3: Both offensively and defensively. As far as the run game 153 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 3: it's concerned. It was their best. 154 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 155 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 4: Absolutely we got criticized for playing such good run defense, which. 156 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 5: Is a good thing, right. 157 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, we only gave up what twenty six. 158 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:34,359 Speaker 5: Yards twenty six on twenty four Carris And as I 159 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 5: mentioned yesterday when we closed, it was probably Mozzie Smith's 160 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 5: best day in the NFL. 161 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 2: Let's talk about old Mazi. 162 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 5: It came out of nowhere, had three tackles, had three 163 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 5: tackles the game before. And you know what I noticed 164 00:08:55,760 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 5: about him and even after the game, like on Monday, 165 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 5: rarely what he said at his locker and allowed the 166 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 5: media to come around and have a group interview. Well, 167 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 5: he hung in there and he did it, and I 168 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 5: saw him smile. I couldn't remember the last time I 169 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 5: saw him smile, because when he arrived here as a 170 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 5: first round draft choice, big smile had kind of a 171 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 5: big personality. His mom was here with him and said 172 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 5: that you know, he was a jokester, and I was like, hey, 173 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 5: well we're gonna say it. We never saw it, right, 174 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 5: And she said something like laughter is the biggest part 175 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 5: of life or something, and that wasn't him. But on 176 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 5: Monday I saw him smile and one of the things 177 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 5: after kind of most everybody left, I think there was 178 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 5: just one or two of us there, he started talking 179 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 5: about I want to be able to carry my weight 180 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 5: and I don't want to be dead weight. And I 181 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 5: was like, hmm, all right, and he actually smiled and 182 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 5: shook hands with us, and I said, well, maybe he's 183 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 5: coming out of his shell. 184 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 4: Well, he's coming out of his shell as a player. Yeah, 185 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 4: that kind of helps. I would imagine this help your personality, 186 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 4: help his personality, his confidence right now. Right, he had 187 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 4: the three tackles this past game. I didn't know about 188 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 4: the three in the previous game, but I do know 189 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 4: that after every play, if he wasn't in on the tackle, 190 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 4: he was pushing someone into the play. 191 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 2: Right. 192 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 4: His pressure throughout the entire game was consistent and consistently good. 193 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 2: I like that. 194 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 4: I mean, when you looked up, he was always a 195 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 4: guy that was doing the pushing. 196 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 2: He was a guy that was what he was boasted. 197 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 3: We had seen that this previous However many games it's 198 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 3: been in his career, seventeen Bluster twenty games, in his career. 199 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 3: We wouldn't be talking about there weren't many questions about 200 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 3: Mazie Smith. 201 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 2: No, that was a first. We wouldn't be surprised that 202 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 2: he knows how. 203 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 5: To smile and he's getting more snaps obviously right out 204 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 5: of necessity. 205 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, and he just looks like, I'm sorry, I never 206 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 4: saw that guy last year. I never hardly How many 207 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 4: tackles did he make last year? Did we know what 208 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 4: that number? 209 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 2: It's got to be. 210 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 5: Minisculled because maybe fifteen. 211 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, come on, I mean, this guy is I'm just 212 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 4: so glad that he's coming out of his shell and 213 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 4: that regard. Now once again it was just the Giants, 214 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 4: but you did what you were supposed to do. When 215 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 4: you're supposed to kick someone's ass, you kicked that ass. 216 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 3: He had thirteen tackles last year. Wow, thirteen tackles, three 217 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 3: tackles for loss in three quarterback hurries, one sack in 218 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 3: three hundred and four snaps total last year and. 219 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 2: He feels that so he felt it all off season. 220 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 5: These last two games he had I want to say 221 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 5: it was close to forty forty some snaps in each game. 222 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 5: So that was you know, that was like Okay, we 223 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 5: can play this guy a little bit more. I've got 224 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 5: it right here. Forty seventy smith, forty six snaps and 225 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 5: then twenty. 226 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 3: Twenty six against the Giants. Forty six against Baltimore. 227 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 2: Twenty six against the Giants. 228 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, so that's pretty good participation. That's not bad, right, 229 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 5: that's not bad. 230 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 3: So so yeah, and we talked about it. You know, 231 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 3: they have a the Giants have a young center, John 232 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 3: Michael Schmidtz, who played at Minnesota in the Big Ten. 233 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 3: It was a second round draft pick last year, so 234 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 3: basically the same age as Mozzi. And this week he's 235 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 3: going up against a rookie center for the Steelers and 236 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 3: Zach Frazier out of West Virginia. And so, I mean 237 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 3: that probably helps a young player's confidence too, that you're 238 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,079 Speaker 3: going up against a guy that's your peer and not 239 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 3: a seven year veteran and who knows all the tricks? 240 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 4: Who did you play against in Baltimore? Against Baltimore, what's 241 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 4: what was the center of veteran. 242 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 3: Tyler Linderbaum? 243 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 2: Three tackles against him? 244 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 3: And Linderbaum is another he's from Iowa. He's another Big 245 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 3: ten guy, and so another he's a little bit older 246 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 3: a couple of years. 247 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 5: And potentially they you know, they lost their starting well, 248 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 5: they did lose their starting right guard Daniels. 249 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 3: So Linderbaum was in the first round pick in two 250 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 3: years ago. 251 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 2: So well, the. 252 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 4: Fact that he was able to get three tackles from him, 253 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 4: and I know that Derek him, we was able to 254 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 4: run run all over the place. But uh, you got 255 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 4: to hold your own. Yeah, you got to hold your own. 256 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 4: Can't speak for anybody else. 257 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 3: So basically he's got three straight games now where he's 258 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 3: gone up against young sinners who are you know, which 259 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 3: up and coming who should be guys that uh, you 260 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 3: know from an experience standpoint and so forth. They don't 261 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 3: have an edge on him, you know. And even his 262 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 3: play strength don't have an edge on him, you know. 263 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 3: So they haven't been around the block. 264 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 5: Like facing guys of his own. 265 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:08,319 Speaker 2: Ill. 266 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 4: Right, That's good and had a lot to do with 267 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 4: the building of the confidence. 268 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 5: The other thing probably need to clear out since clear up, 269 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 5: since we were kind of guessing yesterday on Brandon Cook's situation. 270 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 5: So my understanding is that after the game on Friday 271 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 5: and Saturday, he did a he took a platelet injection 272 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 5: to help his sore knees, one each day and one 273 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 5: of those injections, and it was planned. The Cowboys knew 274 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 5: he was doing and evidently he's done it before. 275 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 3: Good time to do it. It's a bye week, it's a 276 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 3: mini bye week game. You got more time before the 277 00:14:59,040 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 3: next game. 278 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 5: The problem was one of those shots or whatever they 279 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 5: injected them, the blood caused the infection and understand that. 280 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 5: And so when he got back here, the Cowboys got 281 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 5: on top of it right away. 282 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 2: Is there negligence involved here? 283 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 5: Well, that part because it's you have something like that 284 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 5: and you get an injection and you get an infection, 285 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 5: you would think so, right. 286 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yeah, I mean I thought you were about 287 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 4: to make excuses for him, like, no, this is something 288 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 4: that should be. 289 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 3: And it was. 290 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 2: It should be just. 291 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 5: And it was where he New York and the reason 292 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 5: he had it after the game because he previously in 293 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 5: his career had done it. 294 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 4: There that part, I get no problem with that. Yeah, 295 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 4: But if we're going to make this happen and we're 296 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 4: going to be strategic on how we do it, we're 297 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 4: trying to be timely with it with the many buy 298 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 4: or whatever, and then now we have a problem. 299 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 5: Well, they had to solve the problem when he got 300 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 5: back here. 301 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, now now we have a setback, correct. 302 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 5: So not this week, We'll see next week. And then 303 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 5: you got to buy. So so that plan failed, We'll see, 304 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 5: uh where it goes. Well, I don't know that the 305 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 5: Cowboys endorsed it. He did it. 306 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 4: They knew he was going to do it. It's a plan, yeah, 307 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 4: and it failed. I blame it because I just know 308 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 4: that it failed. 309 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 5: So anyway, Jalen Tobert, Ca Turpin, Jalen Brooks, Jalen Brooks, 310 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 5: and maybe flow Noy. This is your life, her opportunity. 311 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 4: The reality is, if you want to be doomsday about it, uh, 312 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 4: this is not the time for that. 313 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 2: This is not the game for that. We need this game. 314 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I was hoping that he was going to 315 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 4: be one of the guys that's going to provide us the. 316 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 2: Tools to do that. 317 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 5: Well, got to step up, gotta step up. Hey, they 318 00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 5: got problems with their receivers not named George right anyway, 319 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 5: So we'll see how well the Cowboys defense can adapt 320 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 5: to that. 321 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 3: And we have a Player of the Month award, Yes, 322 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 3: the NFC Special Teams Player of the Month. Brandon Aubrey 323 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 3: of course, twelve of thirteen on field goals, five for 324 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 3: five from forty to forty nine yards and six for 325 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 3: seven from fifty plus yards. You know they need to 326 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 3: add a category. How many he was sixty in beyond? 327 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 5: Which is two of two or three of three this year? 328 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 5: Two of two, right, should be three of three. 329 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 3: If for a delayed game penalty. 330 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 5: Y's right, that would have tied the NFL all time record. 331 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:46,199 Speaker 3: That's right, yep, delay game time out. You could have 332 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 3: taken a time out. We don't want to take those 333 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 3: timeouts because we want to. 334 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:50,919 Speaker 5: Stay rhythm right. 335 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 3: One ice our own kickers, but twice now we've had 336 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 3: timeouts and decided not to use it. He missed one field. 337 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 5: Goal they had, they had. 338 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 4: I'm just saying, we don't have time for mistakes this year. 339 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 4: We got to get on it, guys.

Frederick Frederick was the man. 424 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 3: I went back and watched. I watched the last part 425 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 3: of that game last night, and I went, oh, man, 426 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 3: look at that offense. 427 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 2: Everything was going backwards. 428 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 3: Yeah. You had that Tyron Smith in his prime at 429 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 3: left tackle, Ronald Leary in his prime time at left guard, 430 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 3: Travis Frederick, who would have been in his fourth year 431 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 3: in his prime at center, Zach Martin was born in 432 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 3: his prime at right guard, and you had Doug Free 433 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 3: at right tackle. 434 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 5: Doug Free before Leall Collins, right. 435 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 3: Uh huh yeah. 436 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,199 Speaker 2: So and they were pushing them back and so just 437 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:23,400 Speaker 2: the entire. 438 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,640 Speaker 3: Dame and I and since then I always thought, oh, 439 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 3: that was one of the best games of that season. 440 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 3: And of course the Cowboys went on what an eleven 441 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,640 Speaker 3: game win streak that year. That was win number eight 442 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 3: in a row, week ten of the season. And early 443 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,439 Speaker 3: on in that game, towards the end of the first quarter, 444 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 3: it was a screen passed to Zeke and he took 445 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 3: it eighty three yards down the sideline. 446 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 2: Not just the running but the blocking field amazing. 447 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,640 Speaker 3: So then the game comes down to the last two 448 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 3: minutes of the game. You got to go find it 449 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 3: and watch it. It was really I had forgotten just 450 00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 3: the intensity and just all the story up, all the 451 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 3: scoring that start that that that happened in the last 452 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 3: two minutes of the game. Uh so the Cowboys were okay. 453 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 3: The final score was thirty five to thirty. Steelers had 454 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 3: four miss two point conversions that so it was a 455 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,639 Speaker 3: crazy even though that's a normal score thirty five to thirty, 456 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 3: the numbers leading up to that were way off because 457 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 3: of miss. 458 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,239 Speaker 5: I thinks they they didn't have a kicker. No, they 459 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 5: were just once you try and miss, and then you try, 460 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 5: and it was trying to trying to get a three point. 461 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 2: Pressure on them by scoring. 462 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 463 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, so they they the onus was always on Pittsburgh's offense. 464 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: We have to keep pace from the first extra point 465 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 2: that we missed. 466 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I should you go ahead and look up the 467 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 3: box score, but I don't have time to. So anyway, 468 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 3: it comes down the last two minutes of the game, 469 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 3: and Cowboys have the ball and in fact, Zeke, well 470 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 3: this is I'm just picking it up at the two 471 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 3: minute one, okay, and Zeke scores a touchdown a fourteen 472 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 3: yard run to give the Cowboys a one point lee. 473 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 3: I can't remember one two points. It is a narrow lead, okay, 474 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,120 Speaker 3: or maybe it was like a five point lead, okay. 475 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 3: And the Steelers come back. So they get the ball 476 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 3: back with a minute forty left or whatever, and with 477 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 3: forty two seconds left, they're facing a third down play 478 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 3: they're coming up to clock it and that's when Big 479 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 3: Ben faked no nice faked it the crew to Antonio 480 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 3: Brown and corner pass. Yeah, and we were snookered and 481 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 3: so then so the Steelers took the lead. And that 482 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 3: was what I want to say. It was forty two 483 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 3: seconds left that gave the Steelers a thirty to twenty 484 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 3: nine lead. So now the Cowboys get it and they're 485 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 3: backed up, okay with they maybe had a timeout or 486 00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 3: tack the part, but they did have it a couple 487 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 3: of timeouts, and so the Cowboys get it. Dak completes 488 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 3: a couple of passes and they're showing shots of Dan 489 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,199 Speaker 3: Bailey on the sideline. It's okay, all you gotta do 490 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 3: is get a Dan Bailey field go get a field 491 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 3: goal range. And of course back then we had a 492 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,360 Speaker 3: kicker who was a Pro Bowl kicker who couldn't kick 493 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:20,919 Speaker 3: it sixty six yards. Yeah, it was very complete, it 494 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 3: was right. So they get it. 495 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 5: Down here yesterday. 496 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 3: But they actually they actually had a pass to Cole 497 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 3: Beasley that should have been a face mask call against. 498 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 3: It was a blatant face mask. They didn't call it. Okay, 499 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 3: that converted got it one first down, then a past 500 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 3: to Whitton and it was not a not a blatant 501 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 3: face mask, but it was a face mask. And that one, 502 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 3: that call with fifteen seconds left, got the Cowboys down 503 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 3: to the thirty two yard line and they're basically, okay, 504 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:58,479 Speaker 3: we're just in position, get it wherever Dan Bailey wants it. 505 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 3: On the field. We'll kick the field and go home 506 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 3: with a thirty two to thirty win. 507 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 2: They thought they hand off. 508 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 3: To Zeke and there is a whole as why and 509 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,880 Speaker 3: Zeke goes thirty two yards up the middle, untouched, game 510 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 3: winning touchdown with nine seconds left. Zeke in that game 511 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 3: had two hundred and nine yards from scrimmage, Yes he did. 512 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 5: But guess what, Rossellisberger threw for four hundred and eight 513 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 5: yards okay, and got beat great game? 514 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 3: What did what Doc have? 515 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 5: Three hang on three nineteen two touchdowns? He had four 516 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 5: oh eight three touchdowns? 517 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,439 Speaker 3: But what a what a great game that was. 518 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 4: So you've got the combination of Dak and Zeke and 519 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 4: then you've got Roethlisberger and Le'Veon Bell. It was one 520 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 4: right they running back in the league at that time. 521 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 3: And they had Antonio Browns or what and so they 522 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 3: had some fire. 523 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 5: Bell had and Bell had nine catches for seventy seven yards. 524 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 3: That's what he did and. 525 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 2: The U. 526 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 3: But when you look at Dak and Zeke and where 527 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 3: the Cowboys were that that game and the road game 528 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 3: at Green Bay are the ones from that rookie season 529 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 3: that stood out more than anything for me and the 530 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 3: Green Bay game was a couple of weeks. It was 531 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,400 Speaker 3: that was Green Bay was October sixteenth, thirty to sixteen win, 532 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 3: and then the Pittsburgh game was November thirteenth, so nearly 533 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 3: a month later, those road wins, and that's when we 534 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 3: realized we got something here. 535 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 2: You know, talked about those those rookie. 536 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 3: And basically, but by the time the Pittsburgh win happened 537 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 3: that Romo was back healthy again. I believe it was 538 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 3: leading up to that when Romo had his press conference 539 00:28:55,280 --> 00:29:00,479 Speaker 3: and what did that say? Which was which what did 540 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 3: he say this press conference? Mackey? You remember basically he 541 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 3: basically was handed over, yeah, thank you and good night. 542 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 5: Well this is kind of saying. 543 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 2: And he really making some money. 544 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 5: They're a Pittsburgh leading tackler with nine in that game, 545 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 5: Ryan Shazier. Mm hmm. 546 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 3: But anyway, what a what a great game that was 547 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 3: and also shows the importance of a run game, importance 548 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 3: of offensive line. Yes, I'm thinking about Okay, where are 549 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 3: the Cowboys now compare to you know. One of the 550 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 3: things though, one of the really interesting things I thought, 551 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 3: and looking at that footage from that game was Dak 552 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 3: Prescott and you can see you go back and look 553 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 3: at him his rookie year and that look at him 554 00:29:55,840 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 3: and his improvement as far as technique, everything about every 555 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,959 Speaker 3: aspect of being an NFL quarterback. It is amazing to 556 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 3: see now he was playing winning football, okay, but he 557 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 3: was basically just managing games. 558 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 2: You know. 559 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 3: In that season he had twenty three touchdowns and only 560 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 3: four interceptions. He took care of the football and at 561 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 3: some point in his career he got to get to 562 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 3: the point where he could make plays, but you could 563 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 3: see his form. Everything is different now and it shows 564 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 3: all the work that he has done throughout his career. 565 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 3: And think about the and shout out to the late 566 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,719 Speaker 3: Wade Wilson, the quarterback coaches that he's had, and the 567 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 3: head coaches who have like McCarthy, like Jason Garrett, who 568 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 3: have brought him along to and making sure that he 569 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 3: does all the little things from a fundamental standpoint to 570 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 3: improve as a quarterback, the things that he's done in 571 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 3: the off season. 572 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 4: To control the game at the line of script, all 573 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 4: that stuff. 574 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 3: And so it's fascinating to go back and look at 575 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 3: the twenty sixteen Dak Prescott and understand what a special 576 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 3: player the Cowboys have now in twenty twenty four. He 577 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 3: was special then he was Now. 578 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 2: We're talking three hundred plus yards. 579 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 3: And yeah, we're talk game whatever. But the improvement that 580 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 3: he has made, without his work ethic and all that 581 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 3: he's put into that, he was not going to be 582 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 3: able to sustain that like he has in his. 583 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 4: Career because the Cowboys couldn't sustain a running game. That's right, 584 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 4: this running game at twenty sixteen. That helped him get 585 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 4: through that rawness that he had, right. 586 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 3: Because what I remember from that season, as much as anything, 587 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 3: opening drives of games. The Cowboys had a ridiculous stretch 588 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 3: during that winning streak where they would score touchdowns on 589 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 3: virtually every opening drive of the game. They get the 590 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 3: ball and they go seventy five eighty yards for a time. 591 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 4: Was that the year that we went to Seattle? Or 592 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 4: in one did we go to Seattle. 593 00:31:58,880 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 2: And win that year? 594 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 3: They look at up? 595 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 5: You mean in the playoffs? 596 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 2: No regular season? 597 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 3: Oh no, you may be that was not in twenty sixteen, 598 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 3: which so that's eight years later, twenty eighteen, lost at Seattle. 599 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 3: You may be thinking about this. We've been romo though. 600 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 3: The Seattle win in twenty fourteen, which was a huge 601 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 3: road win in week six of the season thirty twenty three. 602 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 2: I don't even think but that. 603 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:33,239 Speaker 3: And of course that was a year. 604 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that was before the bookies got there. 605 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 5: So it's eight years and sixty million dollars later, eight 606 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 5: years and how many years? 607 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 3: Yeah here, I was gonna say, no, it's like one 608 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 3: sixty plus two hundred and whatever. 609 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 2: Too much money, yo, too much money. 610 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 3: Anyway, that's my put on that segment. 611 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 2: Good stuff. I love it. 612 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 3: Go watch it. I mean, it'll bring back some fond memory. 613 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 4: What's the entire season? Yeah, even the green bag, even 614 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 4: the playoffs. 615 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 3: But as it relates to this and being at that stadium, which, 616 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 3: by the way, they got a new name for the 617 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 3: stage no longer Heinz Field. It's Akrischuer Stadium. So naming 618 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 3: rights deal sty pitchback a stadium which happened apparently two 619 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 3: years ago. 620 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 5: So seven twenty start by the way. 621 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 3: Okay, seven twenty start on Sunday night, all right, much 622 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 3: more to get to here on Mixed Shots in just 623 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 3: a moment. 624 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 10: The Medal of Honor is our country's highest military award 625 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 10: for valor in combat.
