0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:44.559
<v Speaker 1>twenty one, Season seventeen, episode number sixty one. Welcome to

0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:46.560
<v Speaker 1>the latest edition of The Break Life from Nest WBC

0:00:46.720 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Mortgage Studios at the Star. Cowboys get a big win yesterday,

0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:51.920
<v Speaker 1>we're going to talk about it. They went forty three

0:00:51.920 --> 0:00:56.200
<v Speaker 1>to three to the Atlanta Falcons at home. That's so

0:00:56.920 --> 0:01:00.920
<v Speaker 1>just hearing that score. That's incredible. And I've Nick as

0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:02.800
<v Speaker 1>soon as we finished with the Denver game, his first

0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:04.680
<v Speaker 1>words were, first, don't even know if the game was over.

0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 1>You were like, I know, who was gonna get their bus?

0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:10.440
<v Speaker 1>Whoop Atlanta? And you clearly put that target on them,

0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:13.360
<v Speaker 1>and Cowboys showed up and showed up. Nick. Nick, you

0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:16.039
<v Speaker 1>deserve some credit, my man. I mean, this is this

0:01:16.120 --> 0:01:18.399
<v Speaker 1>is the NFL, and I take I took issue with that.

0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:20.360
<v Speaker 1>I was like, you don't just get to decide that

0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:22.440
<v Speaker 1>they're going to whip somebody's ass, like if they get

0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:24.959
<v Speaker 1>paid too, That's that's how this works. And not only

0:01:25.080 --> 0:01:26.920
<v Speaker 1>was he right about that, he was also like, and

0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:29.360
<v Speaker 1>then Philli will probably turn around and kicked Denver's asses

0:01:29.400 --> 0:01:33.199
<v Speaker 1>and here we god' you know, maybeat Denver by seventeen points.

0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:37.640
<v Speaker 1>So no, no, don't be raising your arms over there,

0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:40.080
<v Speaker 1>because you were after that game when we came back

0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:43.480
<v Speaker 1>into the office, you were saying, well, I don't know

0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>about this team. I have my doubts. Now he did, Now,

0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:49.960
<v Speaker 1>I said, I did say that. I just said we'll

0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:52.400
<v Speaker 1>find out this week. Like if they go and they

0:01:52.520 --> 0:01:54.680
<v Speaker 1>lay an egg against Atlanta, now we're gonna find out

0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:57.120
<v Speaker 1>what they are. But I did I thought they would

0:01:57.200 --> 0:02:00.560
<v Speaker 1>kick their ass, and not so much about the Cowboys

0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:03.440
<v Speaker 1>doing it. I just thought the Falcons would come back

0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:05.800
<v Speaker 1>to earth a little bit a combination of everything. Dan

0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Quinn was not gonna let that happen, and that was

0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:10.920
<v Speaker 1>that was clear, and you could see with the game

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:14.799
<v Speaker 1>ball and all that stuff like it mattered to him.

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:19.440
<v Speaker 1>So I just hundred percent, I just that's amazing. Because

0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:21.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean I picked him to win by eleven points,

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:24.560
<v Speaker 1>which is covering the spread. Well, that's it's a dominant

0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:28.720
<v Speaker 1>win in the NFL forty points. Yeah, you just don't

0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:31.360
<v Speaker 1>see that. You just don't. I mean, they from the

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:34.760
<v Speaker 1>from the coin flip to the into the third quarter,

0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:38.000
<v Speaker 1>they just the Falcons didn't look like they belonged on

0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:40.680
<v Speaker 1>the same field. Probably the most complete win that I

0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:44.160
<v Speaker 1>can remember the Cowboys having, and I mean for a

0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:47.120
<v Speaker 1>long long time now when they beat Jacksonville if you remember,

0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:51.000
<v Speaker 1>like that was like three or four years ago, eighteen

0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:54.799
<v Speaker 1>yea seven maybe it was. It was that was surprising

0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 1>because we thought Jacksonville was good. What's going on here?

0:02:57.680 --> 0:03:03.240
<v Speaker 1>We thought Jacksonville was good? Um, but just from everything,

0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:08.600
<v Speaker 1>the defense was dominant, the special teams was special. Again, Um,

0:03:08.639 --> 0:03:12.040
<v Speaker 1>they actually blocked upon that way, you know, like the

0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:15.760
<v Speaker 1>right way. What talking about that? That is unbelievab What

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:17.400
<v Speaker 1>are the odds that they would do it in back

0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:20.280
<v Speaker 1>to back games? Get it right this time? And oh

0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:23.520
<v Speaker 1>speaking of right, right, Nishan right who scores the touchdown

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:26.560
<v Speaker 1>after bobbling the one last he's so he's so awesome,

0:03:26.639 --> 0:03:29.600
<v Speaker 1>Like get to interview him after the game and give

0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:32.799
<v Speaker 1>him credit. Last week, he comes in there, he did it.

0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 1>He talked about the play and all that. This week

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 1>he comes back and he's like, he's got this grind.

0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:40.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, he reminds me of Bryce Butler. He's got

0:03:40.080 --> 0:03:43.080
<v Speaker 1>this you know, big smile. He's like, he's like, I'm back.

0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:45.560
<v Speaker 1>You know. It's like, and it's better this week. You know,

0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:48.360
<v Speaker 1>he was all excited about it and and is like,

0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:50.440
<v Speaker 1>of course he scored the touchdown. You know, that's why

0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.280
<v Speaker 1>I love full circle. Yeah, everything about this week seemed

0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:55.720
<v Speaker 1>like it was full circle. Cowboys needed this kind of

0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:58.360
<v Speaker 1>You just you don't get to write narratives like that

0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:01.040
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL. Like, we had a bad setback, so

0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:03.680
<v Speaker 1>not only are we gonna win, we're just gonna obliterate

0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:06.840
<v Speaker 1>the other team. The rookie that had the terrible mistake

0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:09.840
<v Speaker 1>is gonna get He's gonna get his touchdown. What else happened?

0:04:09.920 --> 0:04:12.160
<v Speaker 1>Dak played his first game, so it was gonna play

0:04:12.200 --> 0:04:15.520
<v Speaker 1>his best freaking game. Mike McCarthy, I mean they didn't.

0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:17.200
<v Speaker 1>He didn't have his team ready to play. He had

0:04:17.240 --> 0:04:19.480
<v Speaker 1>some he had some fourth down calls in there that

0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:23.920
<v Speaker 1>backfired on him in that particular game. He didn't change that.

0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:27.040
<v Speaker 1>He stayed with the fourth quarter I mean fourth down gambles,

0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:29.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, he stayed with that. And he also switched

0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:32.440
<v Speaker 1>it up and said we're taking the ball, which I

0:04:32.440 --> 0:04:36.119
<v Speaker 1>didn't like that. I never liked it, but I would

0:04:36.240 --> 0:04:39.720
<v Speaker 1>always always differ. But it worked this time because they

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:41.800
<v Speaker 1>got the ball, they scored, and then in the third

0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:44.239
<v Speaker 1>quarter it didn't matter. It didn't, I mean, nothing matters

0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:47.000
<v Speaker 1>except for when am I gonna write my story? Was it?

0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Was it just me? Or did the whole game actually,

0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:52.000
<v Speaker 1>from beginning to end seem just kind of effortless, like

0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:54.080
<v Speaker 1>they weren't in there and we're just having fun. It

0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:57.040
<v Speaker 1>wasn't like, oh, we're battling and really trying. It's just

0:04:57.080 --> 0:05:00.160
<v Speaker 1>like they're out there playing having fun. Yeah, getting things.

0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:02.120
<v Speaker 1>One of the things I said to you was like, okay,

0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:03.919
<v Speaker 1>this is all good. It felt like a like a

0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.200
<v Speaker 1>maddened game where you're like, okay, I gotta get everyone

0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:08.960
<v Speaker 1>some stats here. I was like, I just hope Diggs

0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:12.000
<v Speaker 1>gets to pick I'm just changed this narrative around for

0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:14.120
<v Speaker 1>him and get an interception. It seems like a type

0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:16.159
<v Speaker 1>of game where he would and he did, and he

0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:18.040
<v Speaker 1>made one of those digs plays where it was like

0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:22.520
<v Speaker 1>off his head. Every interception that was made was a

0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:25.680
<v Speaker 1>great play. Yeah, I mean he caught one off his

0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:28.080
<v Speaker 1>head and that was the third best one because Jordan

0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:30.599
<v Speaker 1>Lewis had a good one, and then Anthony Brown that

0:05:30.680 --> 0:05:32.560
<v Speaker 1>was the best one. That might have been one of

0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:34.360
<v Speaker 1>the better ones of the whole season. That was an

0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:40.000
<v Speaker 1>amazing interception. I'm in awe. I'm in awe of that performance, honest,

0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:42.919
<v Speaker 1>And I mean, the Falcons aren't world beaters. I get it.

0:05:43.000 --> 0:05:46.200
<v Speaker 1>They I doubt that they actually make the playoffs, even

0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:48.719
<v Speaker 1>though that they were in a wildcard spot yesterday. But no,

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:51.960
<v Speaker 1>they're they're no, They're absolutely alive. It's we're seeing it.

0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:55.640
<v Speaker 1>There's like there's three or four fire breathing dragons in

0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:57.960
<v Speaker 1>the NFC and then a bunch of I mean, the

0:05:58.360 --> 0:06:00.520
<v Speaker 1>sixth and set, the fifth seed's gonna be a great

0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:02.680
<v Speaker 1>team and the six and seven seeds are probably gonna

0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:05.279
<v Speaker 1>be pretty mediocre. Here's here's what's interesting. And I'm not

0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:07.839
<v Speaker 1>sure what the Rams have done, but but they're not

0:06:07.880 --> 0:06:09.919
<v Speaker 1>even winning their division right now. So of the of

0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:13.600
<v Speaker 1>the division with leaders, all four of them have a

0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:17.719
<v Speaker 1>terrible loss, right Like you would think Dallas had a

0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 1>really bad loss in the Denver Tampa yesterday. What was

0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:24.720
<v Speaker 1>they were on there? The Cardinals yesterday and then they

0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:27.200
<v Speaker 1>didn't have their quarterback or their top receivers. So okay,

0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>that factors in. Yeah it does. And you know, we'll

0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:33.360
<v Speaker 1>see what Cam's doing there in Caroline and all that.

0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:36.680
<v Speaker 1>But Blade Bay got murdered in their opener to the Saints. Yeah,

0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:39.000
<v Speaker 1>so and we know the Saints they're there, so they're

0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:40.560
<v Speaker 1>one of the teams. Is very hard to figure out

0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:44.000
<v Speaker 1>who they really are. Yeah, But I mean, overall, I mean,

0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:45.680
<v Speaker 1>it was just a fun it was It was a

0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:48.280
<v Speaker 1>fun game, and in a game where you know, it's

0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:51.320
<v Speaker 1>like okay, all right, if there was any doubt, and

0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:52.840
<v Speaker 1>there was, I mean there was a little doubt because

0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:54.320
<v Speaker 1>you want to see, okay, is this who they are

0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:56.719
<v Speaker 1>or not? Well, I thought they sent a message to

0:06:56.800 --> 0:06:59.200
<v Speaker 1>the league of like that's when we're playing our game,

0:07:00.000 --> 0:07:02.719
<v Speaker 1>this is what can happen. Yeah, and they weren't shy

0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:05.040
<v Speaker 1>about saying either. A lot you get a lot of

0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:07.240
<v Speaker 1>questions after a forty point went about like did you

0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 1>make a statement? And Zeke Elliott was like, yeah, we're

0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:14.160
<v Speaker 1>that team. If if, if if we're if we're on

0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:16.720
<v Speaker 1>our p's and q's, we're that team. And then Michael

0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Parsons was even better. He was like, uh, he was like,

0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:23.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to curse here on the microphone, but

0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:25.640
<v Speaker 1>we're not trying to be fed with right now, like

0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:29.160
<v Speaker 1>talking talk that trash, Michael, Let's go go. You know,

0:07:29.880 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 1>I thought about this a couple of times, and I

0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:34.160
<v Speaker 1>was gonna maybe say this in the you know, um

0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:37.560
<v Speaker 1>on the press box, but I'm like, oh wait, Jason Garrett,

0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:40.280
<v Speaker 1>like that was it was. It was fine for you know,

0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:42.240
<v Speaker 1>but it went for a decade and you could tell,

0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:44.480
<v Speaker 1>like you could just kind of sense it was. It was,

0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:47.160
<v Speaker 1>it got stale and then this isn't a bash him.

0:07:47.160 --> 0:07:50.360
<v Speaker 1>It's just that that's his. It's the most happens. Yeah,

0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:53.720
<v Speaker 1>and it's just refreshing to see different plays, different things

0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:56.360
<v Speaker 1>that we've never seen before, you know, just like, yeah,

0:07:56.400 --> 0:07:59.480
<v Speaker 1>let's keep doing this McGovern thing and he's gonna get

0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:01.320
<v Speaker 1>the ball. Its point. I thought it would be yesterday,

0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:03.240
<v Speaker 1>but you know, and let's do different things. Let's do

0:08:03.320 --> 0:08:05.960
<v Speaker 1>different things all right around, you know, and and the

0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:09.160
<v Speaker 1>way they do things on special teams and letting Fossil

0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:12.200
<v Speaker 1>do some of his things. I mean, it's just different stuff,

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:14.920
<v Speaker 1>and it's it's fun to see. Yeah, it's always something different.

0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:16.960
<v Speaker 1>I think most games this year. You do look at

0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:19.640
<v Speaker 1>something that they did different. Yesterday, the I don't know

0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:22.520
<v Speaker 1>if what you can call it, the handoff to Zeke

0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:25.480
<v Speaker 1>and Zeke kind of it wasn't a loaddle like a

0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:28.080
<v Speaker 1>handoff that past pass. Yeah, first it was just it

0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:30.040
<v Speaker 1>was just it didn't go anywhere, but it was still

0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:32.160
<v Speaker 1>just different. It's something different than you you know, some

0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:36.120
<v Speaker 1>of some of the ways that Kelle Moore utilized my

0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:38.840
<v Speaker 1>government yesterday. There were things that I was like, I

0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:41.679
<v Speaker 1>didn't even realize you could even do, you know, because

0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:44.640
<v Speaker 1>I started following the NFL with Jason Garrett here obviously

0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:48.160
<v Speaker 1>focusing mainly on the Cowboys and everything. So now seeing

0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:50.840
<v Speaker 1>some of those things that he's coming up with that

0:08:51.040 --> 0:08:53.920
<v Speaker 1>is so creative to me, I'm like, oh, we can

0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:57.160
<v Speaker 1>do that, Well, why haven't we ever done that before?

0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:00.760
<v Speaker 1>So it's just it's really refreshing and very very exciting.

0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Like Nick just said, I'm glad Nick brought this up

0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:08.480
<v Speaker 1>to because I love the way that they didn't they

0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:11.640
<v Speaker 1>didn't blink, you know, the game went South last week

0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:14.160
<v Speaker 1>in part because they get they missed those fourth downs

0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:17.720
<v Speaker 1>gave Denver spark. They don't care. They didn't go for

0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:19.520
<v Speaker 1>it on fourth on the opening drive like they did

0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:23.160
<v Speaker 1>last week, but two of their three fourth down attempts

0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:26.400
<v Speaker 1>were on their second and third possession. One of them

0:09:26.440 --> 0:09:28.760
<v Speaker 1>was a fourth and five. It's not even technically like

0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:31.280
<v Speaker 1>a close just they don't care. Twenty one yards the

0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:34.520
<v Speaker 1>CD finish that drive with a touchdown, then the next

0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:38.040
<v Speaker 1>one fourth and three. Don't care. We're not even We're

0:09:38.480 --> 0:09:40.559
<v Speaker 1>screw the sticks. We're going to the goal line. We're

0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:42.760
<v Speaker 1>throwing at twenty three yards to Michael Gallup. And I

0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:45.000
<v Speaker 1>don't think it's Yeah, I don't think it's a lack

0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:48.800
<v Speaker 1>of respect for the Broncos or the Falcons for that matter.

0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:52.240
<v Speaker 1>It's just look at us. We're the Cowboys. We got

0:09:52.280 --> 0:09:54.840
<v Speaker 1>these guys. We should be going for it. We should

0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:58.680
<v Speaker 1>be dictating the game. And you basically you put the

0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:02.880
<v Speaker 1>game out of reach right there because you whimp around

0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:05.040
<v Speaker 1>and kick a field goal and it's ten three, or

0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:07.360
<v Speaker 1>now it's thirteen to three, and oh it's thirteen to

0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:10.400
<v Speaker 1>six before the half. That's whimp football. They're like, no,

0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:13.000
<v Speaker 1>we got studs, we're gonna go score touchdowns and make

0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:15.280
<v Speaker 1>this twenty one to three. And I love it. I

0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:19.320
<v Speaker 1>absolutely love it. And when it was thirty five to three,

0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:21.080
<v Speaker 1>it was about to be thirty five to three on

0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:24.040
<v Speaker 1>an extra point, and they have a penalty with you know,

0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:26.640
<v Speaker 1>on Atlanta to get the ball down to the one

0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:28.920
<v Speaker 1>they just take. Instead of just declining it and taking

0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:30.760
<v Speaker 1>a thirty five to three league, they said, no, we're

0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:33.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna take them off the field, put the offense back on,

0:10:33.280 --> 0:10:35.120
<v Speaker 1>run the ball, get two point conversion and be up

0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:37.520
<v Speaker 1>thirty six to three. I don't think a lot of

0:10:37.559 --> 0:10:40.280
<v Speaker 1>coaching staffs would have done that, you know, going back,

0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:43.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm so bad at math, but that makes it a

0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:45.600
<v Speaker 1>five score game instead of a four, right, So there's

0:10:45.600 --> 0:10:48.880
<v Speaker 1>like a mathematic thirty four point. Yeah, there's a mathematical

0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:51.960
<v Speaker 1>reason to be doing that, yeah, which is yeah, Yeah,

0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:54.160
<v Speaker 1>I love it. I absolutely love it. Going back to

0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:56.480
<v Speaker 1>the fourth downs, do you think in any way that

0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:59.959
<v Speaker 1>what they did yesterday on fourth downs, because there were

0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:02.400
<v Speaker 1>some of those situations, I think, and I know for

0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:05.000
<v Speaker 1>a fact the second one. The first one was a

0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:06.880
<v Speaker 1>little outside or maybe I have him back with side.

0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:08.560
<v Speaker 1>It was a little outside of field goal range, but

0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:10.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe would have been How much you think their their

0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:13.199
<v Speaker 1>decision making yesterday was a reflection of the fact that

0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:16.880
<v Speaker 1>they didn't have Zirline. I don't know. I really don't

0:11:16.880 --> 0:11:18.839
<v Speaker 1>know how what they what they liked from him in

0:11:19.080 --> 0:11:21.520
<v Speaker 1>the pregame warm ups, if they if they were you know,

0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:24.599
<v Speaker 1>comfortable or not. Um. You know, we noticed it in

0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:27.360
<v Speaker 1>an extra points he's got a different kick than than

0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:30.959
<v Speaker 1>than Zerline and it's it's more of a line drive.

0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:33.839
<v Speaker 1>It may and that that means he may get some

0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:36.720
<v Speaker 1>more more blocked one longer field goals. I don't know that,

0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:38.400
<v Speaker 1>but it's an interesting point you made too during the

0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 1>game as to why you thought maybe that was. Yeah,

0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:42.360
<v Speaker 1>maybe from Canada, where you may have to kick into

0:11:42.400 --> 0:11:44.880
<v Speaker 1>heavy winds, maybe it's makes more sense to kick just

0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.319
<v Speaker 1>drive that thing through because it's a different kick. He's

0:11:47.320 --> 0:11:50.200
<v Speaker 1>just driving the ball. Uh, you wonder what it looks

0:11:50.240 --> 0:11:51.880
<v Speaker 1>like on forty fifty yards. But they never had to

0:11:51.920 --> 0:11:54.040
<v Speaker 1>kick a field goal. And you interviewed him, I did,

0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:57.560
<v Speaker 1>nice guy. Yeah, I didn't know. I didn't know what

0:11:57.640 --> 0:12:00.000
<v Speaker 1>to ask him. I was like, I was like, I'm

0:11:59.800 --> 0:12:01.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm kidding when I ask you this, Like I'm not

0:12:01.840 --> 0:12:05.520
<v Speaker 1>being serious, but like you get kind of disappointed when

0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:07.320
<v Speaker 1>you start trotting toward the field and they tell you

0:12:07.360 --> 0:12:10.240
<v Speaker 1>to turn back around. Question. Yeah, because it happened to

0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:12.200
<v Speaker 1>him yesterday. And he's like, no, I mean the goal

0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:14.280
<v Speaker 1>is to the goal is for the team to win games.

0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:15.960
<v Speaker 1>So you know, I got to play my part with

0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:18.680
<v Speaker 1>the extra points or whatever. And that's he made a

0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:20.960
<v Speaker 1>really good point. There's so much stuff that goes into

0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:23.720
<v Speaker 1>that that you don't think about. And he made the

0:12:23.760 --> 0:12:26.320
<v Speaker 1>point that we're talking about the kicker who didn't kick

0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:28.400
<v Speaker 1>in the first segment. I love it. That's how dominant

0:12:28.440 --> 0:12:30.199
<v Speaker 1>this game was. But he's like, you know, they got

0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:32.199
<v Speaker 1>they got like a Hall of Fame caliber return man.

0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Like a big point of emphasis was to not let

0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:35.880
<v Speaker 1>him really have a role in the game, and they didn't.

0:12:35.960 --> 0:12:39.160
<v Speaker 1>That's a credit to him. I think the first one,

0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:42.000
<v Speaker 1>maybe fourth and five. It's a longer distance than what

0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:43.720
<v Speaker 1>we're used to. It would have been a fifty yard

0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:45.840
<v Speaker 1>field goal, and it's early in the game. That could

0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:48.040
<v Speaker 1>be asking a lot. Second one, no chance in hell.

0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:50.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's a forty two yard field goal. Indoors,

0:12:50.640 --> 0:12:53.199
<v Speaker 1>roof and doors were closed. I just think they trust

0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:56.200
<v Speaker 1>their offense. And by the way, if they didn't kick

0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:59.559
<v Speaker 1>the first one because of Lerium, just keep him on

0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:02.719
<v Speaker 1>the team. I'm sorry, Greg, like, I'll sacrifice that if

0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:05.000
<v Speaker 1>it means that we're making the right decisions on these

0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:07.280
<v Speaker 1>fourth downs. I don't care. Doors were open, right, I

0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:12.760
<v Speaker 1>thought they were close open, doors were open. I missed that. Sorry, Sorry,

0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:15.400
<v Speaker 1>it was a nice day. It felt it probably felt

0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:18.600
<v Speaker 1>the same, you know. Um. You know another thing too

0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:21.320
<v Speaker 1>about that first one. I don't think you decide to

0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:24.319
<v Speaker 1>take the ball and and to go get a three

0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:26.600
<v Speaker 1>nothing lead, you know. I think I think that that

0:13:26.720 --> 0:13:30.199
<v Speaker 1>mindset was we're going to score. We're going and so

0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it would have to be fourth really

0:13:32.520 --> 0:13:34.800
<v Speaker 1>long for them not to do that. The mindset was

0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:36.880
<v Speaker 1>to go get a touchdown. And they were also aggressive

0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:38.959
<v Speaker 1>on those two plays. I mean, they got twenty one

0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:41.360
<v Speaker 1>and twenty three yard games like they weren't. It wasn't

0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:42.520
<v Speaker 1>like they were just trying to pick it up with

0:13:42.600 --> 0:13:46.080
<v Speaker 1>a little dump off into the flat. I just the poe,

0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:49.199
<v Speaker 1>the poetic, the symmetry of it all was just amazing.

0:13:49.280 --> 0:13:51.400
<v Speaker 1>Like they might have scored a touchdown on the one

0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:54.120
<v Speaker 1>to Cedric last week if Dak Puts throws a better

0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:56.280
<v Speaker 1>ball like he threw an awful ball, and then this

0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:59.839
<v Speaker 1>week that is a that is a tough throw and

0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:03.080
<v Speaker 1>tough catch like it's a corner route. The coverage was nice,

0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:04.960
<v Speaker 1>Dak had to put it exactly where it needed to

0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:08.880
<v Speaker 1>be not to see on the first one. And gallop

0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:10.559
<v Speaker 1>throw was a nice one too. They were both. They

0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:12.880
<v Speaker 1>were both nice. But at least you know Gallops breaking

0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:14.960
<v Speaker 1>back to the ball. You've got to you've got his

0:14:15.040 --> 0:14:17.600
<v Speaker 1>body to target. But you put it in right there

0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:19.360
<v Speaker 1>where he lived at the toe tap right. But the

0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Lamb one, you're just throwing it into space. You're dropping

0:14:23.040 --> 0:14:24.760
<v Speaker 1>it into a bucket in front of him. It's gotta

0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:26.920
<v Speaker 1>be right there or it's not going to be complete.

0:14:27.080 --> 0:14:29.720
<v Speaker 1>To have the faith to throw that route on fourth

0:14:29.720 --> 0:14:32.960
<v Speaker 1>and five and to just hit it beautifully. Just that

0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:36.360
<v Speaker 1>was that day. A chef's kiss. Why is that what

0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:38.640
<v Speaker 1>we're doing? Though? All right, you guys are so old.

0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:44.560
<v Speaker 1>I like it. That's awesome. Okay, that's awesome. It's internet, Internet. Yeah,

0:14:44.600 --> 0:14:47.600
<v Speaker 1>that's that's a meme. We eat you guys on that.

0:14:47.600 --> 0:14:49.400
<v Speaker 1>That That was That was all you I was. I

0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:51.360

<v Speaker 1>is the second segment of break claf SWB. See Mortgage

0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:02.600
<v Speaker 1>Studios at the start, Nick, real quick, we never got

0:18:02.680 --> 0:18:03.960
<v Speaker 1>to a sixty one. You want to give me a

0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:06.120
<v Speaker 1>sixty one for today's episode? Yeah, Well, you know, there's

0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:08.600
<v Speaker 1>always the right answer and then there's always my answer. Ye,

0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:14.120
<v Speaker 1>both sixty one. Yeah. Nate Newton, our dog, he's best

0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:19.760
<v Speaker 1>friends now again or friends every day. People were asking

0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:21.480
<v Speaker 1>me like, because I was just like what you stared at,

0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:24.320
<v Speaker 1>because he was he didn't like. He didn't like the

0:18:24.320 --> 0:18:27.120
<v Speaker 1>whole bad loss. There's no such thing as a bad loss.

0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:28.679
<v Speaker 1>And I didn't say it was a bad loss. All

0:18:28.680 --> 0:18:30.200
<v Speaker 1>I said it is when you're on the radio. Yeah,

0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:32.760
<v Speaker 1>I said, you can learn from a game like that,

0:18:32.880 --> 0:18:35.600
<v Speaker 1>because they've been getting by with these bad first first

0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:39.080
<v Speaker 1>half and maybe you can say, all right, if we

0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:41.000
<v Speaker 1>have a bad first half against ever, we're not always

0:18:41.040 --> 0:18:42.879
<v Speaker 1>going to come back, so you better not have a

0:18:42.960 --> 0:18:44.960
<v Speaker 1>start like that, and so maybe you could just learn

0:18:45.080 --> 0:18:46.840
<v Speaker 1>from a loss. That's kind of what my point is being.

0:18:46.920 --> 0:18:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Was I love Nate sixty one? There's only one sixty

0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:52.520
<v Speaker 1>one and there might be some others, but I think

0:18:52.520 --> 0:18:55.000
<v Speaker 1>he's the best. He's the best. This job puts you

0:18:55.040 --> 0:18:58.840
<v Speaker 1>in some we'll acknowledge this in a second day. This job.

0:18:58.960 --> 0:19:01.320
<v Speaker 1>This job puts you in some cool spots. And like

0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:04.320
<v Speaker 1>the fact that I just take it for granted that,

0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:07.480
<v Speaker 1>like I got high five Nate Newton every day on

0:19:07.560 --> 0:19:09.960
<v Speaker 1>my way through the hallway. It's just the like, yeah,

0:19:10.040 --> 0:19:12.480
<v Speaker 1>that is pretty The coolest you know, when you realize it.

0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:14.680
<v Speaker 1>When you realize is when you're talking to your friends

0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:17.320
<v Speaker 1>and you're just kind of talking about random stuff and

0:19:17.400 --> 0:19:19.320
<v Speaker 1>you mentioned somebody and they're like, wait, hola, what did

0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:21.040
<v Speaker 1>you just say. It's like, what are you talking about?

0:19:21.080 --> 0:19:22.880
<v Speaker 1>You say Nate and they're like, wait, are you talking

0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:26.280
<v Speaker 1>about Nate Newton? Like, yeah, perennial pro bowl er Nate

0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Newton gives me crap about my sneaker collection. Yeah he does. No,

0:19:29.880 --> 0:19:32.120
<v Speaker 1>It's it's actually pretty fun. That's what I love about

0:19:32.160 --> 0:19:34.879
<v Speaker 1>it because he's he's like one of us. He has

0:19:35.200 --> 0:19:37.800
<v Speaker 1>in his mind, but he's not really you know, he's

0:19:38.520 --> 0:19:40.159
<v Speaker 1>but he is, but he's been in his mind. He's like, hey,

0:19:40.160 --> 0:19:41.879
<v Speaker 1>he's one of us. He's the jokes laughed, you know,

0:19:42.000 --> 0:19:44.760
<v Speaker 1>he'll talk to you know, Amber, Bob Kickers, and he'll

0:19:44.760 --> 0:19:46.600
<v Speaker 1>talk to everyone. He's got a thing for everyone. But

0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:48.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's a six time pro bowler. That should

0:19:48.600 --> 0:19:50.200
<v Speaker 1>be the ring of water. I'm like, let's not forget

0:19:50.240 --> 0:19:53.520
<v Speaker 1>that truth all right now, Dave. Uh, we got the

0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:57.440
<v Speaker 1>elephant in the room, or more like that razor back

0:19:57.480 --> 0:19:59.479
<v Speaker 1>in the room. Yeah, which you want to tell us

0:19:59.480 --> 0:20:03.040
<v Speaker 1>how every there's there's I just know there's gonna be

0:20:03.080 --> 0:20:06.920
<v Speaker 1>like at least five people who didn't see me wearing

0:20:06.960 --> 0:20:09.560
<v Speaker 1>the jersey in the first segment and just ran to

0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Twitter just like, oh you patience is a virtue. Okay.

0:20:13.119 --> 0:20:15.800
<v Speaker 1>We didn't want to lead off with college talk after

0:20:15.840 --> 0:20:18.120
<v Speaker 1>a forty point win. Okay, we actually thought about moving

0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:20.840
<v Speaker 1>it to tomorrow, and Day was like, he was like, non,

0:20:20.960 --> 0:20:22.640
<v Speaker 1>have to deal with all that. I am a man

0:20:22.720 --> 0:20:25.800
<v Speaker 1>of my word. I think anybody can relate to this.

0:20:26.119 --> 0:20:29.479
<v Speaker 1>We trick ourselves as fans. I went into you know,

0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:34.000
<v Speaker 1>we played well against Alabama. I was like, seasons lost. Anyway,

0:20:34.040 --> 0:20:36.400
<v Speaker 1>this is a bad LSU team. We got nothing to lose.

0:20:36.400 --> 0:20:39.440
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna play Doug nust Meyer's kid. This will be fun.

0:20:40.119 --> 0:20:43.959
<v Speaker 1>News flash. It wasn't fun, and I like, I thought, like,

0:20:44.119 --> 0:20:46.639
<v Speaker 1>because you make a public bet like this, you're just

0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:48.240
<v Speaker 1>thinking about that in the back of your mind the

0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:51.840
<v Speaker 1>whole game. And I just we've you were busy, you

0:20:52.000 --> 0:20:55.720
<v Speaker 1>and I know you don't care. But we made Arkansas.

0:20:55.720 --> 0:20:58.000
<v Speaker 1>I had like five yards of offense the whole first half,

0:20:58.000 --> 0:21:00.919
<v Speaker 1>an LSU just could not capitalize, Like we could not

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:04.680
<v Speaker 1>couldn't put punt, We turn over in the red zone.

0:21:04.720 --> 0:21:07.880
<v Speaker 1>So it's ten to three at halftime. Should three who

0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:10.760
<v Speaker 1>LSU should have been? Should have been at least seventeen

0:21:10.760 --> 0:21:13.400
<v Speaker 1>to three, if not more. And I just remember sitting

0:21:13.400 --> 0:21:16.639
<v Speaker 1>there at half to I'm just like, we're gonna I'm like,

0:21:16.680 --> 0:21:19.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna have to wear this jersey, Chris, keep your

0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:21.399
<v Speaker 1>finger on the bar. I was like, I'm gonna have

0:21:21.440 --> 0:21:24.359
<v Speaker 1>to wear this jersey because we ran a wildcat in

0:21:24.400 --> 0:21:26.520
<v Speaker 1>the red zone for the first time this season. And

0:21:26.680 --> 0:21:31.040
<v Speaker 1>lo and behold, kJ Jefferson turns into freaking Johnny Manzelle.

0:21:32.560 --> 0:21:36.080
<v Speaker 1>He must have slipped six sacks in this. I'm not exaggerating.

0:21:36.320 --> 0:21:38.680
<v Speaker 1>He must have slipped out of six sacks like you

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:41.000
<v Speaker 1>showed me. Yeah, yeah, he looks more like Nate Newton

0:21:41.040 --> 0:21:44.639
<v Speaker 1>than Johnny many. Honestly, he reminded, I thought I was

0:21:44.640 --> 0:21:49.040
<v Speaker 1>watching good Lsu JaMarcus Russell. That's what I was, just like,

0:21:49.080 --> 0:21:51.520
<v Speaker 1>we can't we can't bring this guy. I thought it was.

0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I told Nick, I was like, that's that's Matt. That's

0:21:54.000 --> 0:21:56.879
<v Speaker 1>a Matt Matt Jones. Matt Jones. Yeah, well that's that

0:21:57.600 --> 0:21:59.880
<v Speaker 1>big guy that could run. And you don't think he's

0:21:59.880 --> 0:22:02.199
<v Speaker 1>as fast as he is until he's striding down the

0:22:02.200 --> 0:22:04.560
<v Speaker 1>feet like that. Well he wasn't. He wasn't even killing

0:22:04.640 --> 0:22:06.239
<v Speaker 1>us with his feet. So, I mean, he he had

0:22:06.280 --> 0:22:09.040
<v Speaker 1>some nice runs, but he'll just he'll take a blitz

0:22:09.080 --> 0:22:12.080
<v Speaker 1>and linebacker shake him off like he weighs one hundred

0:22:12.080 --> 0:22:13.720
<v Speaker 1>and twenty pounds and then sort of dance out to

0:22:13.760 --> 0:22:15.679
<v Speaker 1>the sideline and throw it to a wide open receiver.

0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Matt Jones by far my favorite player to ever play

0:22:18.680 --> 0:22:25.560
<v Speaker 1>at Arkansas because he was his Yeah it is no

0:22:25.760 --> 0:22:27.760
<v Speaker 1>but but he came back and won the next year.

0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:30.200
<v Speaker 1>But but Matt was. I mean, he was just this big, tall,

0:22:30.240 --> 0:22:32.720
<v Speaker 1>white kid that was faster than everyone thought. He could

0:22:32.760 --> 0:22:35.080
<v Speaker 1>play receiver, could play quarterback, played basketball, He was a

0:22:35.080 --> 0:22:37.920
<v Speaker 1>great dunker. He just he was he was awesome. Yeah,

0:22:38.200 --> 0:22:41.200
<v Speaker 1>it's fitting that I'm wearing his jersey because it's also

0:22:41.359 --> 0:22:46.159
<v Speaker 1>John Stephen Jones, true Gary's grandson. Third stream quarterback Matt Jones.

0:22:46.200 --> 0:22:49.040
<v Speaker 1>He tortured us for like it felt like five years

0:22:49.200 --> 0:22:53.600
<v Speaker 1>the Hail Mary game and Little Rock and and LSU

0:22:53.680 --> 0:22:55.440
<v Speaker 1>had an what I think, we won six in a row,

0:22:55.600 --> 0:22:58.800
<v Speaker 1>and so it's fitting they they tortured us on Saturday.

0:22:58.800 --> 0:23:00.520
<v Speaker 1>But the gut when it gets over time, I mean

0:23:00.680 --> 0:23:03.879
<v Speaker 1>just like we were saying over time's terrible. But um

0:23:03.920 --> 0:23:07.320
<v Speaker 1>but we you know, through an interception and then our

0:23:07.560 --> 0:23:10.840
<v Speaker 1>freshman kicker makes the kick and then I didn't realize

0:23:10.880 --> 0:23:13.600
<v Speaker 1>that this was an LSU dance. Yeah, I just thought

0:23:13.600 --> 0:23:15.960
<v Speaker 1>it was like the new popular dance that all the

0:23:16.040 --> 0:23:19.520
<v Speaker 1>kids are doing. But it's an LSU dance. Yeah, yes,

0:23:19.680 --> 0:23:23.760
<v Speaker 1>it's the gritty Jamar Chase and Justin Jefferson made it

0:23:23.840 --> 0:23:26.359
<v Speaker 1>a thing during the National championship season. They danced in

0:23:26.400 --> 0:23:28.760
<v Speaker 1>the ends and well they so our kicker, who looked

0:23:28.800 --> 0:23:30.959
<v Speaker 1>more like, yeah he did our dance on our field.

0:23:31.200 --> 0:23:34.840
<v Speaker 1>After he walked off like it, I like, hey, that's

0:23:34.880 --> 0:23:36.760
<v Speaker 1>almost I can't act like I don't like I'm the

0:23:36.840 --> 0:23:39.280
<v Speaker 1>kids that dude get the get like this song, y'all

0:23:39.280 --> 0:23:42.320
<v Speaker 1>play somebody did that like earlier this year. Yeah, after

0:23:42.359 --> 0:23:45.359
<v Speaker 1>they beat we've freaking birl If they beat beat LSU,

0:23:45.480 --> 0:23:47.840
<v Speaker 1>We've lost like five games, six games. I can't keep

0:23:47.840 --> 0:23:51.320
<v Speaker 1>track of it anymore, but it's I'd do it all

0:23:51.320 --> 0:23:53.640
<v Speaker 1>over again for the twenty nineteen season. But it's been

0:23:53.720 --> 0:23:57.840
<v Speaker 1>rough times for the Fighting Tigers and all all credit,

0:23:58.040 --> 0:24:00.720
<v Speaker 1>all all credit to the hog fan. They played a

0:24:00.800 --> 0:24:03.920
<v Speaker 1>better game, and I love you know this. I love

0:24:04.000 --> 0:24:06.960
<v Speaker 1>to LSU loves to act like Arkansas is kind of

0:24:06.960 --> 0:24:09.199
<v Speaker 1>beneath them. We don't really treat them as a rivalry.

0:24:10.240 --> 0:24:12.520
<v Speaker 1>But I don't like it when they have the boot.

0:24:12.600 --> 0:24:14.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't like it at all. But no, I'm like,

0:24:14.720 --> 0:24:17.240
<v Speaker 1>as soon as Arkansas breaks the streak, I'm like, I'm

0:24:17.240 --> 0:24:20.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna need that back not to get caught. I was

0:24:20.680 --> 0:24:24.159
<v Speaker 1>gonna ask for someone who has an LSU logo tattooed

0:24:24.160 --> 0:24:27.400
<v Speaker 1>on his arm, how does it feel to wear an

0:24:27.480 --> 0:24:30.600
<v Speaker 1>Arkansas jersey? I mean, I don't like it, but I

0:24:30.640 --> 0:24:33.359
<v Speaker 1>would feel worse fields Obama jersey. No, I'm like, you know,

0:24:33.960 --> 0:24:36.240
<v Speaker 1>I just said I want to beat them. I definitely

0:24:36.240 --> 0:24:38.720
<v Speaker 1>don't like that they have the boot, but like Arkansas's

0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:43.080
<v Speaker 1>fourth or fifth on my on my to do rivalry. Yeah,

0:24:43.640 --> 0:24:46.040
<v Speaker 1>just so we know, just so, I mean, as I said,

0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:48.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to sweep the floor here this year, and

0:24:48.720 --> 0:24:50.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm not. I'm talking about you haven't had a year

0:24:50.560 --> 0:24:53.040
<v Speaker 1>and it's never happened. But when I'm in the floor,

0:24:53.080 --> 0:24:57.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about upstairs where we work. Because Texas, Derek

0:24:57.640 --> 0:25:02.000
<v Speaker 1>out A and m Rob finally out LSU and then

0:25:02.040 --> 0:25:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Mickey Missouri, We're coming for you and that will be

0:25:05.160 --> 0:25:09.119
<v Speaker 1>man and will Yeah, that will be the game. I

0:25:09.119 --> 0:25:11.560
<v Speaker 1>didn't say anything about Alabama this week. That's fine, true,

0:25:12.440 --> 0:25:15.440
<v Speaker 1>we don't have we don't have many Bama grads. Bet

0:25:15.440 --> 0:25:23.800
<v Speaker 1>with Mickey, Mickey, I'll try to. I'll try to real

0:25:23.880 --> 0:25:27.480
<v Speaker 1>quick to tie this back into any Sure, there's playing

0:25:27.480 --> 0:25:29.760
<v Speaker 1>a cowboy fans that don't care about college football. But

0:25:30.200 --> 0:25:34.720
<v Speaker 1>I was thinking about cowboy fans on Saturday night again. Well,

0:25:34.720 --> 0:25:36.879
<v Speaker 1>she was awful by our standards, and I went, I

0:25:36.960 --> 0:25:39.160
<v Speaker 1>was like, we're playing with house money. This is gonna

0:25:39.160 --> 0:25:41.800
<v Speaker 1>be fun. And by the second quarter, I was like,

0:25:41.840 --> 0:25:43.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm not having fun. I hate how much I want

0:25:43.880 --> 0:25:46.280
<v Speaker 1>to win this game. I feel and it reminded me

0:25:46.320 --> 0:25:48.800
<v Speaker 1>of last year where it's easy to just write it

0:25:48.800 --> 0:25:50.520
<v Speaker 1>off and be like, oh, we suck. I don't care.

0:25:50.600 --> 0:25:53.280
<v Speaker 1>But every weekend you're still sitting there on the couch

0:25:53.440 --> 0:25:57.800
<v Speaker 1>just exactly why am I so invested? It's ridiculous. I

0:25:57.840 --> 0:26:01.720
<v Speaker 1>did that in the in the Region final Arkansas Baylor.

0:26:01.760 --> 0:26:04.199
<v Speaker 1>We'd already won three games to almost get to the

0:26:04.200 --> 0:26:06.840
<v Speaker 1>Final four. Baylor so good, We're not gonna be Baylor.

0:26:07.720 --> 0:26:11.159
<v Speaker 1>It's fine, I'm not I'm fine. Whatever happens happens. I

0:26:11.240 --> 0:26:13.919
<v Speaker 1>broke my remote when they got down five to nothing,

0:26:14.280 --> 0:26:16.960
<v Speaker 1>five to nothing, I broke the remote. Batteries were flying

0:26:17.000 --> 0:26:19.679
<v Speaker 1>all over that all. I was like, I can't do it.

0:26:19.840 --> 0:26:21.919
<v Speaker 1>You can you say that you you're good, but you're not.

0:26:22.160 --> 0:26:24.720
<v Speaker 1>You wanna talk about your team, Well, it's the exact

0:26:24.760 --> 0:26:26.479
<v Speaker 1>same thing. I couldn't turn it off this weekend. And

0:26:26.520 --> 0:26:28.600
<v Speaker 1>I was like, before the game, I told myself I

0:26:28.640 --> 0:26:30.800
<v Speaker 1>had plans, we were going out to dinner with friends.

0:26:31.040 --> 0:26:32.960
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I'm just not tuning in. I'm not

0:26:33.000 --> 0:26:35.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna let them ruin my night. And I'm at dinner

0:26:35.760 --> 0:26:39.600
<v Speaker 1>with my freaking phone out turning game, like I can't

0:26:39.640 --> 0:26:44.120
<v Speaker 1>believe we're battling against freaking one in eight Kansas and

0:26:44.160 --> 0:26:47.359
<v Speaker 1>they're kicking our butts and then we pull back and

0:26:47.440 --> 0:26:52.360
<v Speaker 1>get to overtime and losing overtime. It's a it's a disease.

0:26:52.880 --> 0:26:55.160
<v Speaker 1>I love it so much. I say this all the time.

0:26:55.240 --> 0:26:57.160
<v Speaker 1>You hear you, hear me make this speech all the time.

0:26:57.280 --> 0:27:00.119
<v Speaker 1>And it happens with Cowboy fans that are listening to you.

0:27:00.119 --> 0:27:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Don't choose to be a Texas fan or an LSU fan,

0:27:02.600 --> 0:27:04.200
<v Speaker 1>or Arkasas fan or a Cowboys fan. I mean, it

0:27:04.280 --> 0:27:06.880
<v Speaker 1>chooses you. It does. It chooses you unless you spend

0:27:06.920 --> 0:27:08.399
<v Speaker 1>a lot of money there and then it becomes a

0:27:08.480 --> 0:27:11.119
<v Speaker 1>choice that they made for you to something that's true.

0:27:11.240 --> 0:27:14.440
<v Speaker 1>But but to be a fan. Yeah, it's not a

0:27:14.520 --> 0:27:16.720
<v Speaker 1>it is it's it's it ropes you in. If you

0:27:16.840 --> 0:27:18.760
<v Speaker 1>have the choice to take it or leave it, then

0:27:18.840 --> 0:27:21.159
<v Speaker 1>we're not for you. This is just this show. This

0:27:21.200 --> 0:27:27.639
<v Speaker 1>show is not for you us. Saturdays are great. I

0:27:27.800 --> 0:27:32.920
<v Speaker 1>never get anything. You should leave it that way. Yeah,

0:27:32.920 --> 0:27:35.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm kind of vious. Don't le anybody rope you into college. Else.

0:27:35.560 --> 0:27:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I sit there on Saturdays with like a bourbon in

0:27:38.040 --> 0:27:39.960
<v Speaker 1>my hand. I'm like, I could be out, I could

0:27:40.000 --> 0:27:42.600
<v Speaker 1>be out at dinner, I could be seeing friends. But

0:27:42.680 --> 0:27:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm letting a bunch of teenagers dictate my happiness of

0:27:46.240 --> 0:27:49.440
<v Speaker 1>my life choice that is that is absolutely ridiculous. All Right,

0:27:49.480 --> 0:27:51.800
<v Speaker 1>all right, that's enough for college football, because I really

0:27:51.800 --> 0:27:53.800
<v Speaker 1>don't want to talk about college football anymore, all right,

0:27:53.840 --> 0:27:57.440
<v Speaker 1>So let's get back to the Cowboys. Michael Gallup returned yesterday.

0:27:57.480 --> 0:28:01.080
<v Speaker 1>He three catches for forty two yards, including that big

0:28:01.119 --> 0:28:05.200
<v Speaker 1>fourth down reception we talked about. Talk to me about

0:28:05.240 --> 0:28:07.399
<v Speaker 1>like how that all played out from standpoint of him

0:28:07.440 --> 0:28:09.919
<v Speaker 1>coming back and Cedric Wilson, who has been kind of

0:28:09.960 --> 0:28:11.800
<v Speaker 1>the guy that has stepped up in his absence and

0:28:11.880 --> 0:28:14.280
<v Speaker 1>played really well, they kind of went from one end

0:28:14.320 --> 0:28:15.960
<v Speaker 1>the spectrum to the other, like he didn't play. I

0:28:15.960 --> 0:28:18.720
<v Speaker 1>think he had one snap yesterday. Is it the injury?

0:28:18.760 --> 0:28:21.600
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's going on with him, and I have to

0:28:21.600 --> 0:28:23.960
<v Speaker 1>think that, yeah, I mean, because he was banged up

0:28:24.600 --> 0:28:27.600
<v Speaker 1>and they just didn't need another guy out there to

0:28:28.280 --> 0:28:30.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they probably was like a wait and see,

0:28:30.520 --> 0:28:33.240
<v Speaker 1>see how you feel. And but yeah, he didn't return

0:28:33.320 --> 0:28:35.239
<v Speaker 1>punts early like early in the game, he didn't even

0:28:35.240 --> 0:28:36.800
<v Speaker 1>go out there to return punts, So I was thinking

0:28:36.800 --> 0:28:39.440
<v Speaker 1>maybe he was going to be inactive, so they just

0:28:39.440 --> 0:28:41.240
<v Speaker 1>didn't have to press it with him. Yeah, I think

0:28:41.360 --> 0:28:43.280
<v Speaker 1>because if you look at it, it's not even Yeah,

0:28:43.320 --> 0:28:45.440
<v Speaker 1>Michael Gallo came back and had a nice game, but

0:28:46.040 --> 0:28:50.720
<v Speaker 1>Noah Brown got snaps, Turner got snaps. I think he was. Yeah,

0:28:50.720 --> 0:28:54.040
<v Speaker 1>he was targeted in the end zone. Um, so they're

0:28:54.040 --> 0:28:56.600
<v Speaker 1>never just gonna be a team that we have three

0:28:56.600 --> 0:28:58.960
<v Speaker 1>guys and only three got no they rotate everybody. So

0:28:59.000 --> 0:29:02.760
<v Speaker 1>I think it was he is not all the way

0:29:02.760 --> 0:29:04.880
<v Speaker 1>healthy and we definitely don't need him if we're scoring

0:29:04.920 --> 0:29:07.160
<v Speaker 1>twenty nine points in a quarter. One thing that was

0:29:07.200 --> 0:29:11.720
<v Speaker 1>surprising to me yesterday in this game was Cowboys win big, obviously,

0:29:11.960 --> 0:29:14.240
<v Speaker 1>but the running game didn't seem to have the yards

0:29:14.240 --> 0:29:17.400
<v Speaker 1>you would normally see in a blowout. Zeke Whin fourteen

0:29:17.480 --> 0:29:20.040
<v Speaker 1>carries for forty one yards a two point nine average,

0:29:20.120 --> 0:29:24.320
<v Speaker 1>not great according to his standards Pollard Win eleven carries

0:29:24.360 --> 0:29:27.720
<v Speaker 1>for forty two yards three point eight average, again not great. Well,

0:29:27.720 --> 0:29:30.440
<v Speaker 1>you got surprised at all that they didn't get much

0:29:30.480 --> 0:29:33.040
<v Speaker 1>out of their running game yesterday in a game that

0:29:33.120 --> 0:29:34.520
<v Speaker 1>was a bit of a blowout or not a bit

0:29:34.560 --> 0:29:37.880
<v Speaker 1>of a definitely a blowout. I have a few thoughts.

0:29:37.920 --> 0:29:39.640
<v Speaker 1>You can go ahead a few yeah, yeah, I was

0:29:39.640 --> 0:29:42.120
<v Speaker 1>a little surprised too when in our view of how

0:29:42.160 --> 0:29:46.280
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta plays their safety so far back and so they

0:29:46.320 --> 0:29:49.200
<v Speaker 1>weren't like really really loading up to stop the run

0:29:50.120 --> 0:29:52.040
<v Speaker 1>because they were making sure they didn't get beat with

0:29:52.120 --> 0:29:54.000
<v Speaker 1>deep balls. You didn't see a lot of that either,

0:29:54.320 --> 0:29:57.560
<v Speaker 1>so it was kind of an odd defense. And when

0:29:57.600 --> 0:29:59.560
<v Speaker 1>you think of the score and all that stuff, yeah,

0:29:59.600 --> 0:30:02.000
<v Speaker 1>you would have thought a little bit more rushing yards.

0:30:02.080 --> 0:30:05.440
<v Speaker 1>The stats were a little weird for a forty point

0:30:05.520 --> 0:30:08.400
<v Speaker 1>game like that. They weren't as gaudy as you would think.

0:30:09.120 --> 0:30:11.080
<v Speaker 1>I think Dave makes a good point. They pulled the

0:30:11.120 --> 0:30:14.600
<v Speaker 1>starters in the middle third quarter, so that that that

0:30:14.840 --> 0:30:16.880
<v Speaker 1>helps some of that and plush when your when you

0:30:16.920 --> 0:30:19.280
<v Speaker 1>get eight points just from block punt and a touchdown,

0:30:19.320 --> 0:30:21.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean that that adds to it. That doesn't show

0:30:21.480 --> 0:30:24.800
<v Speaker 1>up on stats. On top of everything about that is right,

0:30:25.560 --> 0:30:27.960
<v Speaker 1>the passing game was just working early on. And again

0:30:28.080 --> 0:30:30.440
<v Speaker 1>that goes back to and I don't I haven't watched

0:30:30.440 --> 0:30:32.680
<v Speaker 1>the tape. I don't know how similarly they played it,

0:30:32.800 --> 0:30:35.560
<v Speaker 1>but that goes back to Dak and Mike McCarthy's point

0:30:35.560 --> 0:30:37.960
<v Speaker 1>of like, yeah, please play us that way, Please play

0:30:38.000 --> 0:30:40.920
<v Speaker 1>us the way that you think is a blueprint to

0:30:40.960 --> 0:30:43.160
<v Speaker 1>stop us. We can throw on you if you if

0:30:43.200 --> 0:30:45.600
<v Speaker 1>that's what you want us to do. So I think

0:30:45.640 --> 0:30:48.160
<v Speaker 1>it's a combination of that. I think it's worth pointing

0:30:48.160 --> 0:30:53.240
<v Speaker 1>out probably thirty rushing yards got called back by holding penalties,

0:30:53.240 --> 0:30:56.240
<v Speaker 1>whether they were bogus or not bogus, So Tony Pollard

0:30:56.240 --> 0:30:58.719
<v Speaker 1>had at least two nice runs get wiped out by calls.

0:30:59.320 --> 0:31:03.240
<v Speaker 1>And then not only do you pull the starters, but

0:31:03.640 --> 0:31:06.480
<v Speaker 1>you're running the ball all through the late game just

0:31:06.520 --> 0:31:07.840
<v Speaker 1>trying to get out of there, a lot of it

0:31:07.880 --> 0:31:11.120
<v Speaker 1>being Corey Clement running behind backups, which is gonna kill

0:31:11.160 --> 0:31:13.760
<v Speaker 1>your average. So I think that three point three average

0:31:13.800 --> 0:31:16.280
<v Speaker 1>by it. And then and then also to Nick's point,

0:31:16.320 --> 0:31:18.959
<v Speaker 1>anytime you get a like I don't want to call

0:31:19.000 --> 0:31:21.520
<v Speaker 1>it a game swinging touchdown, but the punt block just

0:31:21.640 --> 0:31:24.120
<v Speaker 1>kind of sealed the competitive part of the game, right,

0:31:24.160 --> 0:31:28.080
<v Speaker 1>And that requires no there's no drive there, there's no offense.

0:31:28.640 --> 0:31:31.160
<v Speaker 1>So that's a whole point swing that's taken away just

0:31:31.200 --> 0:31:33.280
<v Speaker 1>by a special team's play. So stuff like that kind

0:31:33.280 --> 0:31:36.040
<v Speaker 1>of makes the box score look quonky. Sometimes it was

0:31:36.160 --> 0:31:38.520
<v Speaker 1>nice watching the game and being like, you know, because

0:31:38.520 --> 0:31:40.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of times before we watched the game, we're like,

0:31:41.040 --> 0:31:43.880
<v Speaker 1>why are they not running the ball? Run the freaking ball?

0:31:44.000 --> 0:31:46.000
<v Speaker 1>And it wasn't one of those It's just like where

0:31:46.080 --> 0:31:48.480
<v Speaker 1>that just became a secondary thing in the back of

0:31:48.520 --> 0:31:51.520
<v Speaker 1>your head. I did, It didn't even come to my mind.

0:31:51.520 --> 0:31:54.760
<v Speaker 1>So actually you're saying that, I'm like, oh, okay, I

0:31:54.920 --> 0:31:58.080
<v Speaker 1>didn't even realize that. That's just how well the passing

0:31:58.120 --> 0:32:01.240
<v Speaker 1>game was working. That's just how well they were utilizing

0:32:01.280 --> 0:32:03.760
<v Speaker 1>all their different weapons to the point where you weren't

0:32:03.800 --> 0:32:06.760
<v Speaker 1>even upset at them not running the ball as much,

0:32:06.840 --> 0:32:10.560
<v Speaker 1>not utilize and Zeke as much. I think he did enough.

0:32:11.040 --> 0:32:12.960
<v Speaker 1>He did what he needed to do. He got in

0:32:13.000 --> 0:32:15.800
<v Speaker 1>the end zone too, So it's like it was just

0:32:15.840 --> 0:32:18.240
<v Speaker 1>working and it's just going to happen that way sometimes

0:32:18.240 --> 0:32:21.600
<v Speaker 1>depending on who the opponent is. I do also, I

0:32:21.680 --> 0:32:26.200
<v Speaker 1>remember it feels it's completely irrelevant and feels like ancient history.

0:32:26.240 --> 0:32:28.280
<v Speaker 1>But in the early part of the game, when it

0:32:28.320 --> 0:32:31.680
<v Speaker 1>was still in doubt, I remember being like, oh, they're

0:32:31.760 --> 0:32:34.120
<v Speaker 1>running on first and second and long a lot, and

0:32:34.200 --> 0:32:36.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't like it with how the pass is working.

0:32:36.600 --> 0:32:39.080
<v Speaker 1>So and they're gonna tell you you still have to

0:32:39.160 --> 0:32:41.160
<v Speaker 1>establish that and that's part of balance. I get it.

0:32:41.200 --> 0:32:44.840
<v Speaker 1>But one thing was working really well, and that's I know,

0:32:45.200 --> 0:32:48.160
<v Speaker 1>running the ball is always conducive to success, but whatever

0:32:48.240 --> 0:32:49.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if the pass is working, take it. I

0:32:49.960 --> 0:32:52.360
<v Speaker 1>don't care for your thoughts on the offensive line yesterday,

0:32:52.440 --> 0:32:55.080
<v Speaker 1>Conna Williams continues to have some issues with regards the

0:32:55.160 --> 0:32:58.560
<v Speaker 1>penalties and what were your thoughts overall if you're looking

0:32:58.640 --> 0:33:02.040
<v Speaker 1>for a negative from a lady point when that's probably it. Yeah,

0:33:02.280 --> 0:33:05.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean monro the old off the offensive Connor Williams,

0:33:05.520 --> 0:33:07.360
<v Speaker 1>to be clear, and I'm not trying to pick on

0:33:07.400 --> 0:33:11.160
<v Speaker 1>the guy, but I think he got flagged three times yesterday. Yeah,

0:33:11.200 --> 0:33:13.680
<v Speaker 1>one wouldn't call it back, but I mean it was

0:33:13.720 --> 0:33:15.960
<v Speaker 1>a touch was that the touchdown? It was a fumble

0:33:15.960 --> 0:33:19.959
<v Speaker 1>on Zeke Um declined fumbled at the end of the run.

0:33:20.160 --> 0:33:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Was gonna he was gonna wipe out that play too

0:33:22.080 --> 0:33:24.200
<v Speaker 1>if he didn't wut the penalty on the touchdown. The

0:33:24.320 --> 0:33:26.280
<v Speaker 1>play we're talking about earlier where Dak at the I

0:33:26.320 --> 0:33:29.800
<v Speaker 1>mean Zeke passed it no brown brown down the field,

0:33:29.840 --> 0:33:31.719
<v Speaker 1>but he I think there were it was two holdings

0:33:31.720 --> 0:33:33.600
<v Speaker 1>in a chop block like that call. It was two

0:33:33.600 --> 0:33:35.680
<v Speaker 1>holdings in a chop block on the same play. No, No,

0:33:35.800 --> 0:33:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Connor got flagged for two holdings in a chop block,

0:33:38.040 --> 0:33:41.080
<v Speaker 1>and I think one of the holdings was kind of bogus.

0:33:41.560 --> 0:33:44.800
<v Speaker 1>Sorry and got away on the on the chop block,

0:33:44.840 --> 0:33:46.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, because I heard this in the press block,

0:33:47.360 --> 0:33:49.680
<v Speaker 1>it just kind of fell he kind of he fell

0:33:49.720 --> 0:33:55.200
<v Speaker 1>down like that there down to press box. Yeah, I mean,

0:33:55.800 --> 0:33:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm the Dallas Cowboys have never committed a penalty in

0:33:59.040 --> 0:34:01.640
<v Speaker 1>the eyes of Mickey Spa. And the thing about Mickey's

0:34:01.640 --> 0:34:03.800
<v Speaker 1>got his headphones on right because he's watching the game

0:34:03.840 --> 0:34:05.840
<v Speaker 1>and it's just always gonna be louder. So he's just

0:34:05.920 --> 0:34:07.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's just like, I don't realize he has

0:34:07.360 --> 0:34:08.879
<v Speaker 1>a hit phone done. I guess. I don't know if

0:34:08.880 --> 0:34:12.160
<v Speaker 1>he was doing that bad call refs he fell down

0:34:12.680 --> 0:34:15.719
<v Speaker 1>or he fell down, you know, I don't know what

0:34:15.760 --> 0:34:17.360
<v Speaker 1>it was, but like he was frustrated with him for

0:34:17.440 --> 0:34:19.359
<v Speaker 1>falling down or whether it was the rest Yeah, yeah,

0:34:19.560 --> 0:34:21.759
<v Speaker 1>but Connor heard it. You know, he turned back and

0:34:21.760 --> 0:34:25.839
<v Speaker 1>he was like, you can you can nitpick it all

0:34:25.840 --> 0:34:28.640
<v Speaker 1>you want. Maybe maybe he should have only been flagged once.

0:34:29.239 --> 0:34:31.480
<v Speaker 1>He got flagged three times. I think so that I

0:34:31.480 --> 0:34:33.759
<v Speaker 1>think that puts him at twelve on the year's let's

0:34:33.760 --> 0:34:39.239
<v Speaker 1>talk about this, can he I mean, clearly they would

0:34:39.239 --> 0:34:43.000
<v Speaker 1>put Connor McGovern in there if they thought he was better, right,

0:34:43.000 --> 0:34:46.319
<v Speaker 1>because Connor McGovern's under contract, he's probably gonna be here.

0:34:46.320 --> 0:34:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Connor Williams is probably not going to be here. I

0:34:48.400 --> 0:34:50.680
<v Speaker 1>don't I don't think. You know, somebody brought this up

0:34:50.760 --> 0:34:54.160
<v Speaker 1>yesterday and I kind of just dismissed it. But I'm

0:34:54.200 --> 0:34:57.080
<v Speaker 1>starting to wonder if maybe there is something to it.

0:34:57.120 --> 0:35:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Is the sub package that they use for Connor McGovern

0:35:01.080 --> 0:35:03.440
<v Speaker 1>the reason maybe why they're not willing to do that

0:35:03.520 --> 0:35:06.080
<v Speaker 1>because they see value in what they're doing with him

0:35:06.120 --> 0:35:08.719
<v Speaker 1>there fifty over ten though. I mean, I said, I

0:35:09.920 --> 0:35:11.799
<v Speaker 1>get it, and you're right, That's why I dismissed it.

0:35:11.800 --> 0:35:13.160
<v Speaker 1>But then after I was doing it later, I was like,

0:35:13.320 --> 0:35:16.640
<v Speaker 1>but there's it's hard for me to believe McGovern is

0:35:16.680 --> 0:35:19.160
<v Speaker 1>not as at least as good. And if he's the

0:35:19.200 --> 0:35:22.160
<v Speaker 1>guy you think maybe here longer, why wouldn't if he's

0:35:22.160 --> 0:35:24.600
<v Speaker 1>not trying, you know, he's worse. He got a penalty too. Now,

0:35:24.640 --> 0:35:27.040
<v Speaker 1>let don't forget he got in there and second he

0:35:27.080 --> 0:35:29.560
<v Speaker 1>played for Zach and he got a penalty. But let's

0:35:29.560 --> 0:35:32.600
<v Speaker 1>don't underestimate what's happening with McGovern because this is not

0:35:32.719 --> 0:35:36.320
<v Speaker 1>a fun, cute thing that Kellen Moore's doing. This is

0:35:36.360 --> 0:35:39.200
<v Speaker 1>a needed thing. They need a fullback, they need short

0:35:39.280 --> 0:35:42.319
<v Speaker 1>yardage running, and he's providing that. He's a big body guy,

0:35:42.360 --> 0:35:45.040
<v Speaker 1>bigger than any fullback, but agile enough to get I

0:35:45.080 --> 0:35:47.719
<v Speaker 1>mean that's one thing. Get your ass up there. I mean,

0:35:47.800 --> 0:35:50.040
<v Speaker 1>like get off the ball because Zeke and Poller are

0:35:50.040 --> 0:35:52.600
<v Speaker 1>coming quick. So and he does that. He's doing a

0:35:52.640 --> 0:35:55.680
<v Speaker 1>really good job. That's blocking in space because a lot

0:35:55.680 --> 0:35:57.520
<v Speaker 1>of times, you know, a big guy like that, I

0:35:57.520 --> 0:36:00.719
<v Speaker 1>mean Micah Parsons is showing on the other side, he

0:36:01.120 --> 0:36:03.520
<v Speaker 1>can like slither past you and stuff like that. So

0:36:03.560 --> 0:36:06.000
<v Speaker 1>it's not as easy as you think just to block

0:36:06.040 --> 0:36:08.239
<v Speaker 1>in space for a big guard like that. I think

0:36:08.239 --> 0:36:10.080
<v Speaker 1>he's doing a great job. I think it's needed and

0:36:10.080 --> 0:36:12.279
<v Speaker 1>it's helping these red zones. So I don't want to

0:36:12.280 --> 0:36:15.480
<v Speaker 1>take that away. But something's got to happen to left guard,

0:36:16.000 --> 0:36:18.080
<v Speaker 1>can't I mean, couldn't you teach Connor Williams to do that?

0:36:18.120 --> 0:36:19.759
<v Speaker 1>I think you could do it. I don't a good point,

0:36:19.800 --> 0:36:21.480
<v Speaker 1>I just I mean, what we've always heard about him

0:36:21.520 --> 0:36:25.359
<v Speaker 1>is that he's athletics more than strong tackle. Not trying

0:36:25.400 --> 0:36:28.200
<v Speaker 1>to take away from Connor McGovern, but I just got

0:36:28.200 --> 0:36:31.080
<v Speaker 1>to imagine you could that that's not a skill set

0:36:31.120 --> 0:36:32.799
<v Speaker 1>that no one else has. That's all I'm trying to say.

0:36:32.800 --> 0:36:35.640
<v Speaker 1>That's a good point. Um, Yeah, I think so, I think,

0:36:36.360 --> 0:36:39.000
<v Speaker 1>and you you hear whispers of this around the facility.

0:36:39.040 --> 0:36:41.279
<v Speaker 1>It's it's different right now because Tyron Smith is hurt,

0:36:41.400 --> 0:36:43.279
<v Speaker 1>and I think they don't want to mess with the

0:36:43.280 --> 0:36:47.360
<v Speaker 1>continuity or just the vibe while they're arguably best linemen

0:36:47.480 --> 0:36:49.520
<v Speaker 1>or at least one A and one B with Zach

0:36:49.840 --> 0:36:53.720
<v Speaker 1>while he's out. But when Tyrone's back healthy playing left tackle,

0:36:54.560 --> 0:36:58.680
<v Speaker 1>I think, I think that job's up for grabs, honestly,

0:36:58.840 --> 0:37:01.200
<v Speaker 1>and I don't They might not ever make some big

0:37:01.239 --> 0:37:04.560
<v Speaker 1>announcement about it, but that gives you the two Connors

0:37:05.239 --> 0:37:08.799
<v Speaker 1>and depending I just assume Terrence Steele will move back

0:37:08.800 --> 0:37:11.160
<v Speaker 1>to the right tackle when Tyron's healthy. If that's the case,

0:37:11.200 --> 0:37:13.600
<v Speaker 1>then throw a Lyle Collins in there and between the

0:37:13.640 --> 0:37:16.120
<v Speaker 1>three the way back up. You said you think still

0:37:16.160 --> 0:37:19.080
<v Speaker 1>will go back to right tackle. I think so, Lyle.

0:37:19.760 --> 0:37:23.680
<v Speaker 1>I think so. Really, that's that's kind of that's not

0:37:23.719 --> 0:37:26.160
<v Speaker 1>something we've really talked about before they did it. They

0:37:26.160 --> 0:37:28.760
<v Speaker 1>already did that when Lyle came back from his suspension.

0:37:28.800 --> 0:37:30.759
<v Speaker 1>They were like, no, Steal's good here, Steals good at

0:37:30.840 --> 0:37:33.160
<v Speaker 1>right tackle. It wasn't that also because of the continuity,

0:37:33.200 --> 0:37:35.200
<v Speaker 1>the continuity, and I thought we'd even talked about it

0:37:35.280 --> 0:37:37.440
<v Speaker 1>last week that you know, maybe the reason why you

0:37:37.480 --> 0:37:40.000
<v Speaker 1>move Steele is because you're thinking, hey, we want to

0:37:40.040 --> 0:37:43.520
<v Speaker 1>get we want to get a Lyle back into shape

0:37:43.520 --> 0:37:46.080
<v Speaker 1>so that when Tyron comes back, he's in his normal spot.

0:37:46.160 --> 0:37:48.880
<v Speaker 1>I can't predict to a certainty what they're gonna do,

0:37:49.160 --> 0:37:54.080
<v Speaker 1>and Lyle played really well yesterday, but I don't. But

0:37:54.200 --> 0:37:57.640
<v Speaker 1>you think, again, left guards your problem spot. Else is

0:37:57.640 --> 0:37:59.719
<v Speaker 1>another guy that can play left guard. If you're trying

0:37:59.719 --> 0:38:02.040
<v Speaker 1>to fit that, moving Steel to right tackle gives you

0:38:02.040 --> 0:38:04.640
<v Speaker 1>as many options as I could see that scenario. Yeah,

0:38:04.640 --> 0:38:07.120
<v Speaker 1>I could see that. That's that makes not an issue

0:38:07.120 --> 0:38:09.719
<v Speaker 1>of Lyle being not as good at right tackle, but

0:38:10.239 --> 0:38:13.799
<v Speaker 1>give you the most position playing. I understand that. And

0:38:13.840 --> 0:38:15.879
<v Speaker 1>if it's a situation where they moved in the guard,

0:38:15.920 --> 0:38:18.360
<v Speaker 1>that makes sense. If you're saying Steel moves back and

0:38:18.480 --> 0:38:20.640
<v Speaker 1>Lyle goes to the bitch, I have a hard time

0:38:20.680 --> 0:38:23.720
<v Speaker 1>seeing that. Yeah, I don't see that either. And I think, honestly,

0:38:24.120 --> 0:38:26.480
<v Speaker 1>I think if they would have decided to put Steele

0:38:26.600 --> 0:38:29.879
<v Speaker 1>to replace him at right tackle when Tyrant comes back,

0:38:30.120 --> 0:38:32.400
<v Speaker 1>I feel like they just would have put Tyrant. I mean,

0:38:32.440 --> 0:38:34.960
<v Speaker 1>I like all over there. Yeah, but I really like

0:38:35.080 --> 0:38:38.680
<v Speaker 1>that left guard spot. Now I think I think, yeah,

0:38:38.760 --> 0:38:41.400
<v Speaker 1>I think that might need to be the it happens.

0:38:41.200 --> 0:38:44.480
<v Speaker 1>It's it's a really interesting conversation because and I'm the

0:38:44.520 --> 0:38:46.680
<v Speaker 1>one that just said, you moved Steal back to right tackle,

0:38:46.840 --> 0:38:50.960
<v Speaker 1>but Tyrant getting hurt is maybe a blessing in disguise

0:38:51.000 --> 0:38:54.600
<v Speaker 1>in the sense that you don't technically have to bench

0:38:55.040 --> 0:38:57.359
<v Speaker 1>Terrence Steele. You know, you didn't want to pull him

0:38:57.400 --> 0:38:59.439
<v Speaker 1>off after he played so well and be like sorry, kid,

0:38:59.680 --> 0:39:02.520
<v Speaker 1>but now he had to switch jobs and the old

0:39:02.560 --> 0:39:05.279
<v Speaker 1>starters back in his old spot playing well. It's a

0:39:05.280 --> 0:39:07.879
<v Speaker 1>little smoother of a transition than just yanking the guy

0:39:07.920 --> 0:39:09.840
<v Speaker 1>out of the lineup. So there's a lot of interesting

0:39:09.880 --> 0:39:14.040
<v Speaker 1>stuff they could do. Point being, trust me, the Cowboys

0:39:14.160 --> 0:39:18.160
<v Speaker 1>have left guard circled as a concern, and once Tyron

0:39:18.239 --> 0:39:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Smith is back healthy, I think it's at least something

0:39:21.000 --> 0:39:22.520
<v Speaker 1>that they're going to look at I don't. They don't

0:39:22.520 --> 0:39:27.000
<v Speaker 1>have blinders on about this. Especially they already knew penalties

0:39:27.000 --> 0:39:29.400
<v Speaker 1>were a problem, and he just got three more. I

0:39:29.400 --> 0:39:31.839
<v Speaker 1>mean you can't ignore that. Ye all right, we're gonna

0:39:31.840 --> 0:39:33.560
<v Speaker 1>take our final break. When we come back, we're gonna

0:39:33.560 --> 0:39:35.200
<v Speaker 1>talk a little bit about the defense. There are some

0:39:35.239 --> 0:39:37.880
<v Speaker 1>big plays and some some players that play really well

<v Speaker 1>yesterday on defense. We'll talk about that when we come back.

0:42:58.320 --> 0:43:02.200
<v Speaker 1>freaking time. They go on years? Remember eight years. They

0:43:02.320 --> 0:43:05.920
<v Speaker 1>knew that the twenty twenty one game. In twenty fourteen,

0:43:06.000 --> 0:43:08.080
<v Speaker 1>they were like, man, remember last year when the Cowboys

0:43:08.080 --> 0:43:09.520
<v Speaker 1>lost to the Chiefs, Like, when are they going to

0:43:09.560 --> 0:43:12.680

0:43:12.719 --> 0:43:14.600

0:43:14.640 --> 0:43:16.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, eight years hard to play in anything, but

0:43:17.080 --> 0:43:20.520
<v Speaker 1>Arrowhead was my first NFL road game, was it? Yep?

0:43:20.640 --> 0:43:25.400
<v Speaker 1>What happened on the bush? Brian brought us always tell story.

0:43:25.400 --> 0:43:29.160
<v Speaker 1>He's very consistent with the storytelling, and it's a good story.

0:43:29.239 --> 0:43:32.040
<v Speaker 1>It's a good story. Always tells the same story about

0:43:32.080 --> 0:43:34.680
<v Speaker 1>Monni Kiffin. Monnie Kiffin fell asleep on his shoulder led

0:43:34.719 --> 0:43:41.120
<v Speaker 1>a after seventeen sixteen, Mo Claiborne drew a DPI on

0:43:41.160 --> 0:43:44.000
<v Speaker 1>a cruise on a must have third down. What he

0:43:44.000 --> 0:43:46.719
<v Speaker 1>said in the press conference, I'll never forget to call

0:43:46.719 --> 0:43:48.920
<v Speaker 1>it a press conference, is not a press conference. And

0:43:48.920 --> 0:43:52.560
<v Speaker 1>he sat at his locker, facing into his locker. Oh yeah, yeah,

0:43:52.760 --> 0:43:55.920
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't turn around to like, you know he said that

0:43:55.960 --> 0:43:58.600
<v Speaker 1>was Mo. Yeah, you know. It was his second year

0:43:58.600 --> 0:44:01.680
<v Speaker 1>in the league. Um, He's just like, I do it again.

0:44:01.760 --> 0:44:03.719
<v Speaker 1>That's the way I play like. It was third and

0:44:03.800 --> 0:44:06.240
<v Speaker 1>eight and it was like a slant for three yards.

0:44:06.280 --> 0:44:07.959
<v Speaker 1>I mean, catch the ball, tackle him and you punt

0:44:08.000 --> 0:44:09.480
<v Speaker 1>and the Cowboys have a chance to win this and

0:44:09.520 --> 0:44:13.520
<v Speaker 1>he just dove on the guy pi first down. Game

0:44:13.600 --> 0:44:15.200
<v Speaker 1>was over and he was like, that's I would do

0:44:15.200 --> 0:44:17.719
<v Speaker 1>it again. And we were lolling, really because if you

0:44:17.800 --> 0:44:22.040
<v Speaker 1>did it again and you can't, oh okay, as it's funny.

0:44:22.160 --> 0:44:25.000
<v Speaker 1>And then I called I can't believe I said Mo yesterday.

0:44:25.080 --> 0:44:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I was doing that all day twenty four. I was

0:44:28.200 --> 0:44:34.320
<v Speaker 1>like Mos out there and who Kelvin Joseph hey Lsue cornerback.

0:44:34.640 --> 0:44:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Is it funny that Mo goes and wins a championship

0:44:36.880 --> 0:44:40.560
<v Speaker 1>with Kansas City? Then, I mean just letting you know.

0:44:41.480 --> 0:44:43.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to die. Yeah, he wasn't like a

0:44:43.480 --> 0:44:45.400
<v Speaker 1>major player or that team he was on. He was

0:44:45.400 --> 0:44:51.520
<v Speaker 1>on the one hundred and thirty pounds. Yeah. I think

0:44:51.560 --> 0:44:54.160
<v Speaker 1>about that, And the answer Chris is no. I think

0:44:54.200 --> 0:44:57.439
<v Speaker 1>about that all the time. Like Anthony Hinchins has gone

0:44:57.480 --> 0:44:59.560
<v Speaker 1>on to great success with the Chiefs. He won a

0:44:59.560 --> 0:45:02.279
<v Speaker 1>super Bowl with them, and people are like, oh see

0:45:02.320 --> 0:45:04.880
<v Speaker 1>what happens. I'm like, no, the Cowboys played that perfectly.

0:45:05.120 --> 0:45:08.240
<v Speaker 1>Like and by the way, people are killing him absolutely.

0:45:08.560 --> 0:45:10.719
<v Speaker 1>Who bands are killing him? Right? They have? They have

0:45:10.760 --> 0:45:12.879
<v Speaker 1>a few guys, don't think I know Blake Bells back

0:45:12.960 --> 0:45:17.960
<v Speaker 1>with them, back with Casey. I believe Charvarius Word is

0:45:17.960 --> 0:45:20.640
<v Speaker 1>still there. Um, that was a weird one. By the way,

0:45:20.719 --> 0:45:24.160
<v Speaker 1>Damian Wilson left, He's not there anymore. Remember him, Charvarius

0:45:24.120 --> 0:45:28.200
<v Speaker 1>were we could talk about? Oh well, actually tomorrow it's

0:45:28.280 --> 0:45:31.600
<v Speaker 1>cruel tomorrow. Tomorrow we got one of our old lunch

0:45:31.640 --> 0:45:35.279
<v Speaker 1>breaks coming back through for a little visit. Miss Dio

0:45:35.360 --> 0:45:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Wall who is now a news reporter, like she's big

0:45:38.080 --> 0:45:40.280
<v Speaker 1>time now, she's a news anchor up in Kansas City.

0:45:40.480 --> 0:45:42.439
<v Speaker 1>She's going to be joining us tomorrow talk a little

0:45:42.440 --> 0:45:44.960
<v Speaker 1>bit of Chiefs with her, what her thoughts are on

0:45:45.040 --> 0:45:47.320
<v Speaker 1>that Chief's team and what it's like there the city

0:45:47.920 --> 0:45:49.920
<v Speaker 1>following the Chiefs. So we'll do that tomorrow. It'll be fun.

0:45:50.080 --> 0:45:51.839
<v Speaker 1>That sounds cool. Yeah, I mean we'll get a chance

0:45:51.840 --> 0:45:53.879
<v Speaker 1>to catch up with her a weekends. It's fun because

0:45:53.920 --> 0:45:55.400
<v Speaker 1>I just said, like, I mean, this is gonna be

0:45:55.480 --> 0:45:58.200
<v Speaker 1>must CTV. Some mahomes and dak and all that stuff.

0:45:58.200 --> 0:46:02.520
<v Speaker 1>But even after this raid is when I assume everybody

0:46:02.560 --> 0:46:04.560
<v Speaker 1>in case he's still kind of hanging out on the

0:46:04.600 --> 0:46:06.879
<v Speaker 1>ledge just like we thought. We thought we were gonna

0:46:06.880 --> 0:46:08.480
<v Speaker 1>be ten to know what the hell is going on?

0:46:08.880 --> 0:46:11.440
<v Speaker 1>You know what was interesting and it's rare to happen.

0:46:11.560 --> 0:46:13.479
<v Speaker 1>You know, you have a noon game, you go home,

0:46:13.640 --> 0:46:15.880
<v Speaker 1>you watch the game, and I bet I guarantee a

0:46:15.920 --> 0:46:18.200
<v Speaker 1>lot of the Cowboys coaches are watching it. Because if

0:46:18.200 --> 0:46:21.799
<v Speaker 1>we think about it, and the next ten days, right man,

0:46:21.880 --> 0:46:24.680
<v Speaker 1>the next eleven days and the next eleven days, you're

0:46:24.960 --> 0:46:26.960
<v Speaker 1>both teams. You've got both these teams because you got

0:46:27.360 --> 0:46:30.000
<v Speaker 1>so I mean, you're studying. It's good opportunities to look

0:46:30.040 --> 0:46:32.680
<v Speaker 1>at both of these teams, and I think I think

0:46:32.680 --> 0:46:34.880
<v Speaker 1>the Raiders game is going to be tough. I honestly,

0:46:35.520 --> 0:46:37.880
<v Speaker 1>if the Cowboys can get two and one out of

0:46:37.920 --> 0:46:41.640
<v Speaker 1>these next three, that will be huge for them because

0:46:41.680 --> 0:46:45.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, these next three games are gonna be tough, Chiefs, Raiders,

0:46:45.960 --> 0:46:48.480
<v Speaker 1>and then Saints on the road. And say what you

0:46:48.520 --> 0:46:50.560
<v Speaker 1>want to say about those teams and how they're performing

0:46:50.560 --> 0:46:52.480
<v Speaker 1>this year, they still are going to be tough. And

0:46:52.640 --> 0:46:54.640
<v Speaker 1>I think before the season we all circled this three

0:46:54.680 --> 0:46:57.520
<v Speaker 1>game stretch it's in. This might be the mediest part

0:46:57.520 --> 0:47:00.120
<v Speaker 1>of their schedule, and I think it still is. Regardless

0:47:00.160 --> 0:47:01.640
<v Speaker 1>what you think of their records right now, I would

0:47:01.760 --> 0:47:04.040
<v Speaker 1>which first of all, I think they have the potential

0:47:04.040 --> 0:47:06.600
<v Speaker 1>to win all three of course, yeah, yeah, yeah, I would.

0:47:06.640 --> 0:47:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Even one and two is fine as long as the

0:47:09.200 --> 0:47:12.439
<v Speaker 1>win is New Orleans. Again, the AFC NFC thing, I mean,

0:47:12.600 --> 0:47:15.120
<v Speaker 1>you would prefer that not to happen, but you can

0:47:15.280 --> 0:47:19.880
<v Speaker 1>serve so what you would be eight and four and four? Yeah,

0:47:19.880 --> 0:47:22.480
<v Speaker 1>and you did the thing about is both both NFC

0:47:22.520 --> 0:47:25.680
<v Speaker 1>team eaton NFC East teams that played yesterday One you

0:47:25.680 --> 0:47:27.799
<v Speaker 1>didn't expect them, either of them to win, but they

0:47:27.880 --> 0:47:30.920
<v Speaker 1>both won, so they're kind of hanging around there. Somebody

0:47:31.000 --> 0:47:33.200
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter said to me, like, go, like, I don't

0:47:33.200 --> 0:47:36.759
<v Speaker 1>even know, Like, congratulations Cowboys. You beat a five hundred team.

0:47:36.880 --> 0:47:39.440
<v Speaker 1>You know. Great. I'm like, well, that's good because that's

0:47:39.440 --> 0:47:41.160
<v Speaker 1>about all that's left on the schedule, right, that's the

0:47:41.440 --> 0:47:43.759
<v Speaker 1>That's what the NFL is. I mean, the teams you've

0:47:43.800 --> 0:47:46.160
<v Speaker 1>got on the schedule, including the Chiefs. What are they?

0:47:46.200 --> 0:47:49.440
<v Speaker 1>They're six and four? Now, yeah, so I mean Raiders

0:47:49.440 --> 0:47:51.640
<v Speaker 1>are right there above, and the Saints are a little

0:47:51.640 --> 0:47:53.960
<v Speaker 1>bit above, and you know, Arizona is good, but I

0:47:54.000 --> 0:47:56.040
<v Speaker 1>mean some of these other ones are down even lower

0:47:56.040 --> 0:47:58.080
<v Speaker 1>than that. So that that's what the NFL is. So cool,

0:47:58.120 --> 0:48:00.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if you you know, and that's such a

0:48:00.640 --> 0:48:04.239
<v Speaker 1>dumb argument too. You beat a team no, no, no, no,

0:48:04.480 --> 0:48:08.200
<v Speaker 1>you annihilated a team like that. You annihilated a the

0:48:08.280 --> 0:48:11.800
<v Speaker 1>seventh seed in the playoffs. You annihilated them by forty

0:48:11.840 --> 0:48:14.879
<v Speaker 1>points because you were pissed off. Can't stress enough how

0:48:14.960 --> 0:48:18.840
<v Speaker 1>rare that is forty points or you know, it works,

0:48:19.000 --> 0:48:21.799
<v Speaker 1>It always goes this way. The Carolina game is a

0:48:21.840 --> 0:48:25.320
<v Speaker 1>perfect example. You go up big, you pull your guys,

0:48:25.360 --> 0:48:26.920
<v Speaker 1>you kind of take your foot off the gas, and

0:48:26.960 --> 0:48:29.919
<v Speaker 1>the final scores eight points because they pay their guys too,

0:48:29.920 --> 0:48:32.839
<v Speaker 1>and they're gonna keep trying. And then you're questioning whether

0:48:32.880 --> 0:48:35.600
<v Speaker 1>dig should have come out, Like that's the NFL. It

0:48:35.760 --> 0:48:40.480
<v Speaker 1>is not normal to go up forty and stay up forty,

0:48:40.680 --> 0:48:42.719
<v Speaker 1>like even when the starters come out, you're still in

0:48:42.800 --> 0:48:45.040
<v Speaker 1>the third quarter, right right, This was one of those

0:48:45.160 --> 0:48:48.960
<v Speaker 1>you saying bolts like killing everybody in running and all

0:48:48.960 --> 0:48:51.000
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden the end, he's kind of like waving

0:48:51.080 --> 0:48:53.640
<v Speaker 1>already and blowing kisses and all that, you know, like

0:48:53.760 --> 0:48:56.359
<v Speaker 1>the last yeah, yeah, the last two or three. Right,

0:48:57.200 --> 0:48:58.880
<v Speaker 1>It's like that's that's what that was. I mean, that

0:48:58.920 --> 0:49:01.480
<v Speaker 1>was forty points off the gas for the final. We

0:49:01.520 --> 0:49:04.799
<v Speaker 1>didn't even talking about the defensive line, No they did,

0:49:05.040 --> 0:49:08.680
<v Speaker 1>We didn't. We haven't said the name, like I on

0:49:09.160 --> 0:49:11.040
<v Speaker 1>what was it Friday when we were talking about the

0:49:11.040 --> 0:49:13.239
<v Speaker 1>game and all that, Like, I personally thought that this

0:49:13.440 --> 0:49:16.360
<v Speaker 1>defense wouldn't be able to piece it all together without

0:49:16.400 --> 0:49:19.040
<v Speaker 1>Randy Gregory in the lineup. So I really thought that

0:49:19.400 --> 0:49:22.120
<v Speaker 1>him missing that game was going to affect the defense

0:49:22.160 --> 0:49:25.120
<v Speaker 1>overall in all three levels. So and they didn't, and

0:49:25.160 --> 0:49:28.799
<v Speaker 1>a guy like Dorian's Armstrong surprised me. He did an

0:49:28.800 --> 0:49:31.520
<v Speaker 1>extent been of a surprise, right, I mean, this is

0:49:31.600 --> 0:49:33.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of oh, this is kind of who this guy

0:49:33.600 --> 0:49:36.200
<v Speaker 1>has been through training camp all this year, going back

0:49:36.200 --> 0:49:39.400
<v Speaker 1>to training camp, he's been as solid as you want

0:49:39.480 --> 0:49:41.840
<v Speaker 1>from that position, and he had another solid game. But

0:49:41.880 --> 0:49:44.200
<v Speaker 1>he stepped up this game like a game, you know,

0:49:44.280 --> 0:49:46.600
<v Speaker 1>sometimes it happens where you need a guy to step

0:49:46.680 --> 0:49:49.160
<v Speaker 1>up and then they just don't come to play because

0:49:49.560 --> 0:49:53.359
<v Speaker 1>he's giving more. He has more on his shoulder, right,

0:49:53.440 --> 0:49:56.359
<v Speaker 1>so he has more responsibility in the game and there

0:49:56.480 --> 0:49:59.799
<v Speaker 1>sometimes they don't show up to that level. But he did.

0:50:00.080 --> 0:50:03.040
<v Speaker 1>And then you we talked about Mica Parsons that we

0:50:03.040 --> 0:50:04.960
<v Speaker 1>were trying to figure out what they we're gonna do

0:50:05.040 --> 0:50:08.560
<v Speaker 1>with him, Well, he worked out pretty well. And then Mica,

0:50:08.719 --> 0:50:12.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean he again was able to rush the passer

0:50:12.440 --> 0:50:14.320
<v Speaker 1>and do all that while he needed to get done.

0:50:14.400 --> 0:50:17.200
<v Speaker 1>So to me, I can't believe we won this long

0:50:17.239 --> 0:50:20.040
<v Speaker 1>we talked about every time. I can't believe we got

0:50:20.080 --> 0:50:22.560
<v Speaker 1>fifty minutes in before we said the name Dorian's Armstrong

0:50:22.680 --> 0:50:25.640
<v Speaker 1>and that's not okay, which bringing us back to football, yeah,

0:50:26.560 --> 0:50:30.840
<v Speaker 1>and Cowboys. Hey, when we go got college football, Amber's

0:50:30.840 --> 0:50:33.799
<v Speaker 1>gonna be like, I'm out on this conversation. It's I

0:50:33.880 --> 0:50:37.279
<v Speaker 1>like my Saturdays. I'm not gonna I can't go there

0:50:37.320 --> 0:50:39.200
<v Speaker 1>with you just be I say it all the time.

0:50:39.320 --> 0:50:41.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't care what you do in training camp. I've

0:50:41.080 --> 0:50:43.840
<v Speaker 1>been burned too many times by that. And it's not

0:50:43.960 --> 0:50:46.080
<v Speaker 1>it's not all Doran's his fault. He twisted his ankle,

0:50:46.120 --> 0:50:48.600
<v Speaker 1>he was out for a while. McCarthy said yesterday he

0:50:48.640 --> 0:50:50.040
<v Speaker 1>was kind of he felt like he was knocking the

0:50:50.120 --> 0:50:53.160
<v Speaker 1>rust off against Denver last week. But this is still

0:50:53.200 --> 0:50:55.080
<v Speaker 1>I think he had two and a half career sacks

0:50:55.080 --> 0:50:58.360
<v Speaker 1>coming into this game, so he gets twenty thirty percent

0:50:58.360 --> 0:51:00.879
<v Speaker 1>of his career total just by getting one and then

0:51:00.920 --> 0:51:03.120
<v Speaker 1>adding a pump block to it. That's what we've always known.

0:51:03.200 --> 0:51:05.880
<v Speaker 1>He's a special team's beast and to show up that

0:51:05.920 --> 0:51:08.480
<v Speaker 1>way and create a touchdown. Can't get over that stat

0:51:08.760 --> 0:51:10.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm a stat nerd of course, I just

0:51:11.000 --> 0:51:14.120
<v Speaker 1>can't get over the fact that the last player that

0:51:14.280 --> 0:51:16.640
<v Speaker 1>did that in the NFL blocked a punt and sacked

0:51:16.680 --> 0:51:19.160
<v Speaker 1>I got a sack in the same game was Terrell

0:51:19.200 --> 0:51:22.600
<v Speaker 1>Basham for the Jets, so the guy on the left

0:51:22.640 --> 0:51:24.960
<v Speaker 1>side of the line. Then the last defensive end to

0:51:25.040 --> 0:51:28.800
<v Speaker 1>do it was Robert Quinn, who also played for the Cowboys.

0:51:28.800 --> 0:51:31.719
<v Speaker 1>To it just shows a sense of versatility that to

0:51:31.760 --> 0:51:34.080
<v Speaker 1>do that and you don't see guys that are that

0:51:34.120 --> 0:51:36.080
<v Speaker 1>are you know, the best pass rusher on the team

0:51:36.120 --> 0:51:39.040
<v Speaker 1>for that game also, but he's staying on special teams.

0:51:39.080 --> 0:51:41.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm sure Bones was like, no, we still

0:51:41.160 --> 0:51:43.759
<v Speaker 1>need you yeah on there, and Derek, you and I

0:51:43.800 --> 0:51:46.239
<v Speaker 1>actually both called that, And then that's rare because we

0:51:46.440 --> 0:51:49.480
<v Speaker 1>were always thinking like, well, probably don't want to rush

0:51:49.560 --> 0:51:51.440
<v Speaker 1>the punt here, but the score was out of hand.

0:51:51.520 --> 0:51:54.040
<v Speaker 1>Literally right before happen, We're both like, yeah, yeah, go

0:51:54.360 --> 0:51:56.040
<v Speaker 1>for it. I would go for the block, and You're

0:51:56.040 --> 0:51:57.960
<v Speaker 1>like yeah, you know, like you're probably only gonna get

0:51:57.960 --> 0:51:59.200
<v Speaker 1>a five yard and You're like, I don't care if

0:51:59.200 --> 0:52:02.239
<v Speaker 1>you get fifteen, go rush it now the black part

0:52:02.920 --> 0:52:05.440
<v Speaker 1>touch down. I had a moment last night where I

0:52:05.480 --> 0:52:09.720
<v Speaker 1>realized that I'm already taking Micah Parsons for granted, because

0:52:09.800 --> 0:52:12.000
<v Speaker 1>we huddle after every game and kind of talk about

0:52:12.000 --> 0:52:16.200
<v Speaker 1>what needs to be written about what the major storylines were. Yeah,

0:52:16.280 --> 0:52:20.279
<v Speaker 1>basically I was halftime I was like, y'a so. I

0:52:20.320 --> 0:52:23.400
<v Speaker 1>think Nick was like yeah so, and then Mica obviously,

0:52:23.520 --> 0:52:26.920
<v Speaker 1>And in my head I'm like, really, like, Mica, you

0:52:27.080 --> 0:52:29.440
<v Speaker 1>do that much. This is just in my head. I

0:52:29.600 --> 0:52:33.160
<v Speaker 1>go home and start watching you know, highlights and press

0:52:33.160 --> 0:52:36.640
<v Speaker 1>conference clippings. I'm like, oh, yeah, he had another sack

0:52:36.960 --> 0:52:41.239
<v Speaker 1>and another tackle for loss, and kind oh yeah, I mean,

0:52:41.239 --> 0:52:44.560
<v Speaker 1>it was an absolutely phenomenal play. He's got what six

0:52:44.600 --> 0:52:46.520
<v Speaker 1>on the season. Now, just get him on the field.

0:52:46.880 --> 0:52:49.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm tired of arguing about what to do with them

0:52:49.360 --> 0:52:51.440
<v Speaker 1>and all that. I just think, you know, and I'll

0:52:51.440 --> 0:52:53.879
<v Speaker 1>say this people that still want to say that, this

0:52:53.960 --> 0:52:56.040
<v Speaker 1>isn't the year for it. This isn't the year. He's

0:52:56.040 --> 0:52:59.120
<v Speaker 1>a linebacker. You hope to get these two defensive ends back,

0:52:59.120 --> 0:53:02.360
<v Speaker 1>and you're gonna be great now next year. If you

0:53:02.400 --> 0:53:04.440
<v Speaker 1>want to make him a rusher, that's fine. He won't

0:53:04.480 --> 0:53:07.279
<v Speaker 1>be a pass rusher with Gregory Andy Law. I mean,

0:53:07.280 --> 0:53:09.719
<v Speaker 1>because someone's gonna have to give there. I could see

0:53:09.719 --> 0:53:11.239
<v Speaker 1>if they want to make that move, but I think

0:53:11.239 --> 0:53:13.359
<v Speaker 1>for right now, where this team is, I think he's

0:53:13.400 --> 0:53:15.640
<v Speaker 1>better as a linebacker. And then rush him all over

0:53:15.680 --> 0:53:17.560
<v Speaker 1>the place, you don't sure where he's gonna line up

0:53:17.600 --> 0:53:20.799
<v Speaker 1>at times. It's funny. I thought about this this morning too.

0:53:21.400 --> 0:53:23.560
<v Speaker 1>When you're good, you're going to be in line for

0:53:23.600 --> 0:53:26.399
<v Speaker 1>a lot of awards, right, Like DA's in the MVP race.

0:53:26.880 --> 0:53:28.560
<v Speaker 1>We have no idea if he'll win it. We won't

0:53:28.600 --> 0:53:30.400
<v Speaker 1>know that for a long time come back Player of

0:53:30.400 --> 0:53:34.440
<v Speaker 1>the Year, come sure, Absolutely, Treyvon Diggs, he's gonna be

0:53:34.480 --> 0:53:36.359
<v Speaker 1>in the chase for Defensive Player of the Year. But

0:53:36.760 --> 0:53:38.799
<v Speaker 1>Miles Garrett's having a hell of a season. Like they're

0:53:38.840 --> 0:53:41.400
<v Speaker 1>all these variables. I'm telling you right now, Mike is

0:53:41.400 --> 0:53:43.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna win Defensive Rookie of the Year. I don't have

0:53:43.760 --> 0:53:46.760
<v Speaker 1>a question. I can't imagine a scenario where he doesn't

0:53:46.880 --> 0:53:51.520
<v Speaker 1>unless he gets hurt, which knock on wood, Like it's

0:53:51.560 --> 0:53:54.160
<v Speaker 1>not even close. Like Patrick Surtan's having a nice season,

0:53:54.239 --> 0:53:56.399
<v Speaker 1>but he doesn't have the stats that I mean talking

0:53:56.440 --> 0:54:00.560
<v Speaker 1>about a guy that plays linebacker that's got six and

0:54:00.600 --> 0:54:03.160
<v Speaker 1>a half sacks, right, that's is that the number six

0:54:03.280 --> 0:54:08.120
<v Speaker 1>at six six six oh No, six six sacks, six

0:54:08.120 --> 0:54:10.319
<v Speaker 1>sacks at the halfway point of the season, to go

0:54:10.400 --> 0:54:13.200
<v Speaker 1>with like twelve tackles for loss, and he's gonna finish

0:54:13.239 --> 0:54:15.640
<v Speaker 1>with north of one hundred tackles, like, just send it

0:54:15.680 --> 0:54:18.040
<v Speaker 1>to him, got to be historic. Send it to him now.

0:54:18.120 --> 0:54:21.000
<v Speaker 1>And there's no competence. More than anything, it's just the

0:54:21.000 --> 0:54:23.839
<v Speaker 1>fact that he has the ability to do all of

0:54:23.840 --> 0:54:25.799
<v Speaker 1>that stuff as a rookie. They're putting all this on

0:54:25.840 --> 0:54:27.920
<v Speaker 1>this plate to be able to learn this. And that's

0:54:27.960 --> 0:54:30.279
<v Speaker 1>why running backs typically do a pretty good job as

0:54:30.360 --> 0:54:32.400
<v Speaker 1>rookies because they come in and they know what they

0:54:32.400 --> 0:54:35.200
<v Speaker 1>gotta do. They run the ball, corners, same thing, cover

0:54:35.239 --> 0:54:38.319
<v Speaker 1>your guy, but linebacker to do all these things. Ever

0:54:38.360 --> 0:54:40.279
<v Speaker 1>since they took the Green Dot off, he has been

0:54:40.320 --> 0:54:43.040
<v Speaker 1>even better, Like he has at the Green Dot yesterday.

0:54:43.040 --> 0:54:46.040
<v Speaker 1>Because I noticed Jeffer Curs only had seventy well I

0:54:46.080 --> 0:54:49.200
<v Speaker 1>don't he only had like seventy seventy percent of the plays.

0:54:49.760 --> 0:54:51.880
<v Speaker 1>It made me think that somebody else may have had.

0:54:53.440 --> 0:54:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Curse made a great play, by the way, because not

0:54:55.600 --> 0:54:57.480
<v Speaker 1>only did earlier in the game, not only did he

0:54:57.520 --> 0:54:59.520
<v Speaker 1>knock the guy the ball away, but he was the

0:54:59.560 --> 0:55:01.799
<v Speaker 1>only one that knew it. Like he turned around and

0:55:01.840 --> 0:55:06.040
<v Speaker 1>he was like challenging challenges, that awesome challenge, and he

0:55:06.239 --> 0:55:08.520
<v Speaker 1>I think he saw it hit the ground, yeah, or

0:55:08.600 --> 0:55:10.799
<v Speaker 1>heard it maybe even maybe How do you miss that.

0:55:10.880 --> 0:55:13.560
<v Speaker 1>All these refs out there, don't get me started. That's

0:55:13.600 --> 0:55:16.319
<v Speaker 1>a lot of eyeballs. And I didn't see that it

0:55:16.400 --> 0:55:18.080
<v Speaker 1>is I saw it from the press. Can we just

0:55:18.080 --> 0:55:21.160
<v Speaker 1>mentioned Jordan Lewis's name. I was actually would let me

0:55:21.200 --> 0:55:23.600
<v Speaker 1>get to him. This is what we get for doing

0:55:23.680 --> 0:55:26.959
<v Speaker 1>twelve minutes on college football. That's true. Sorry, talk about

0:55:27.040 --> 0:55:29.719
<v Speaker 1>Jordan Lewis man yesterday he had I thought early in

0:55:29.760 --> 0:55:32.160
<v Speaker 1>the game it seemed like they that was their wal

0:55:32.239 --> 0:55:35.120
<v Speaker 1>though they were going after him. They wanted to challenge him.

0:55:35.160 --> 0:55:37.680
<v Speaker 1>They thought he was the weak link, and he was

0:55:37.800 --> 0:55:41.080
<v Speaker 1>play after play, making plays on the ball and making

0:55:41.080 --> 0:55:44.560
<v Speaker 1>sure they weren't completing passes. Probably from the time I

0:55:44.600 --> 0:55:47.439
<v Speaker 1>saw the scene in All or Nothing four years ago

0:55:48.080 --> 0:55:51.960
<v Speaker 1>when Jordan Lewis as a rookie just took it to

0:55:52.080 --> 0:55:55.799
<v Speaker 1>Deaz at practice just basically got in a fight with him,

0:55:55.840 --> 0:55:58.040
<v Speaker 1>like had called the whole team out and went one

0:55:58.080 --> 0:56:01.239
<v Speaker 1>on one. I was like, I of this guy. I

0:56:01.280 --> 0:56:03.960
<v Speaker 1>like everything about him. I like the tenacity, the swagger.

0:56:04.760 --> 0:56:09.400
<v Speaker 1>He's not a Pro Bowl cornerback, he's five ten. That

0:56:10.160 --> 0:56:14.239
<v Speaker 1>doesn't doesn't matter. I mean he he got a break

0:56:14.320 --> 0:56:17.120
<v Speaker 1>up on Kyle Pitts yesterday, and that is about as

0:56:17.239 --> 0:56:19.640
<v Speaker 1>much of a mismatch in terms of size as you

0:56:19.680 --> 0:56:23.719
<v Speaker 1>can find in the NFL. A pro maybe five nine cornerback.

0:56:23.880 --> 0:56:28.320
<v Speaker 1>They skying up on a mutant, a six six freak

0:56:28.360 --> 0:56:31.959
<v Speaker 1>of an athlete, and he's just uh he he, I'm sorry,

0:56:31.960 --> 0:56:35.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm rambling. He just everything about the way Jordan Lewis

0:56:35.800 --> 0:56:39.920
<v Speaker 1>approaches the game. I love. He's the swagger, the nacity,

0:56:40.040 --> 0:56:43.640
<v Speaker 1>the can do attitude. Love it. The best thing that

0:56:43.719 --> 0:56:46.880
<v Speaker 1>Travis Kelsey does. They're not the best thing, but one

0:56:46.920 --> 0:56:49.880
<v Speaker 1>of the best things for him is Tyreek Hill, you know,

0:56:50.000 --> 0:56:52.319
<v Speaker 1>because you can't just put the best corner back on

0:56:52.680 --> 0:56:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Kelsey Atlanta. I'm telling you now, they got to get

0:56:56.280 --> 0:56:59.239
<v Speaker 1>Riddley back. Hopefully he's he'll be fine, and that that's

0:56:59.239 --> 0:57:01.759
<v Speaker 1>a you know, big story for him. Hopefully he gets back,

0:57:01.920 --> 0:57:04.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, for him for his sake. But also they

0:57:04.400 --> 0:57:07.440
<v Speaker 1>need another playmaking receiver because if they don't, then you

0:57:07.480 --> 0:57:09.759
<v Speaker 1>will just continue to put corners on Kyle Pitts and

0:57:09.760 --> 0:57:13.200
<v Speaker 1>the Tree be a big old receiver that he probably

0:57:13.239 --> 0:57:15.759
<v Speaker 1>won't be special until unless he's a tight end. You

0:57:15.840 --> 0:57:18.080
<v Speaker 1>gotta give him some help so he can create more

0:57:18.160 --> 0:57:20.480
<v Speaker 1>mismatches because as it stands right now, you're just not

0:57:20.600 --> 0:57:23.240
<v Speaker 1>as worried about the other guys, but that you're right,

0:57:23.320 --> 0:57:25.880
<v Speaker 1>You're totally right. But that's what's so amazing is like

0:57:26.080 --> 0:57:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Trayvon digs On Kyle Pitts is at least a fair fight.

0:57:30.280 --> 0:57:32.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, Trayvon's a big, long guy. He can go

0:57:32.960 --> 0:57:35.520
<v Speaker 1>up and get the football. Jordan Lewis has just giving

0:57:35.640 --> 0:57:39.000
<v Speaker 1>up so much side height and weight to that player

0:57:39.280 --> 0:57:42.240
<v Speaker 1>and to be able to defend him anyway incredibly impressive.

0:57:42.280 --> 0:57:44.280
<v Speaker 1>The ball wasn't high enough. Thing it needs to be,

0:57:44.560 --> 0:57:47.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, fair. I mean, I mean rebounds, big guys

0:57:47.400 --> 0:57:49.720
<v Speaker 1>get it, loose balls on the ground, little guys get

0:57:49.760 --> 0:57:52.560
<v Speaker 1>it so that that that ball's got to be up higher. Yeah,

0:57:52.800 --> 0:57:55.480
<v Speaker 1>but that Ryan definitely didn't have his best day, and

0:57:55.680 --> 0:57:57.840
<v Speaker 1>it goes back to he goes we were talking about

0:57:58.040 --> 0:58:00.600
<v Speaker 1>on Friday. You know, maybe there was some thing too

0:58:00.720 --> 0:58:02.840
<v Speaker 1>how Quinn knows him and knows him really well that

0:58:03.200 --> 0:58:07.000
<v Speaker 1>he created situations that maybe he knows he doesn't doesn't

0:58:07.080 --> 0:58:09.520
<v Speaker 1>choose to be in buss you that he doesn't choose

0:58:09.560 --> 0:58:11.440
<v Speaker 1>to be in and he doesn't play his best in

0:58:11.560 --> 0:58:13.600
<v Speaker 1>So all around, I just think it was a really

0:58:13.600 --> 0:58:15.960
<v Speaker 1>really well coached game and a really really well played

0:58:16.000 --> 0:58:18.800
<v Speaker 1>game for the Cowboys. This isn't it's not important toward

0:58:18.920 --> 0:58:22.000
<v Speaker 1>like the success of the team or any of that,

0:58:22.040 --> 0:58:25.760
<v Speaker 1>But just on a personal I'm so happy that Jordan

0:58:25.840 --> 0:58:31.160
<v Speaker 1>and Anthony Brown both are getting picks, basically because so

0:58:31.280 --> 0:58:34.280
<v Speaker 1>much goes into cornerback play that you never get credit for.

0:58:34.440 --> 0:58:36.520
<v Speaker 1>People really only want to look at your picks or

0:58:36.600 --> 0:58:40.480
<v Speaker 1>what you're giving up. That's It was so amazing when

0:58:40.560 --> 0:58:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Byron Jones was named All Pro with like one interception

0:58:43.680 --> 0:58:46.640
<v Speaker 1>in twenty or zero. I'm sorry, yeah, that's that's incredible.

0:58:46.680 --> 0:58:49.200
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't happen because the position is judged by picks.

0:58:49.200 --> 0:58:51.520
<v Speaker 1>So both of those guys get like they're not going

0:58:51.560 --> 0:58:53.439
<v Speaker 1>to get named to the Pro Bowl. But they're having

0:58:53.640 --> 0:58:58.080
<v Speaker 1>really solid seasons and are They are contributing to the

0:58:58.120 --> 0:59:01.000
<v Speaker 1>success of this defense in a real way, and it's

0:59:01.160 --> 0:59:03.360
<v Speaker 1>nice for it to pay off for them. With the

0:59:03.480 --> 0:59:06.480
<v Speaker 1>stat line that makes people notice, Like we notice because

0:59:06.520 --> 0:59:09.320
<v Speaker 1>we are paid to watch every down. But now you

0:59:09.320 --> 0:59:11.360
<v Speaker 1>look at it, you're like, damn, Anthony Brown's got three picks,

0:59:11.360 --> 0:59:14.479
<v Speaker 1>that's a career high. Jordan Lewis has two picks. That's yeah,

0:59:14.560 --> 0:59:17.360
<v Speaker 1>he only had five or four on his career coming

0:59:17.360 --> 0:59:19.720
<v Speaker 1>into the year, So I mean, so it's just nice

0:59:19.760 --> 0:59:22.680
<v Speaker 1>to see them getting rewarded for hard work that would

0:59:22.680 --> 0:59:25.400
<v Speaker 1>otherwise be going unnoticed. All Right, we appreciate you guys us.

0:59:25.520 --> 0:59:29.080
<v Speaker 1>We'll be back tomorrow. We'll start talking Cowboys versus Kansas City.

0:59:29.120 --> 0:59:31.000
<v Speaker 1>As I say, we'll have Dea wall On joining us tomorrow,

0:59:31.040 --> 0:59:32.800
<v Speaker 1>talk a little bit about those chiefs to then for

0:59:32.880 --> 0:59:35.440
<v Speaker 1>Nick Eatman, Dave Helmet, and Amber Garcia. I am Derek Eagleson.
