Like I said, we're thirty hours away from kickoff, 20 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: but there's a reason for all of this, and that 21 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: is the Hall of Fame enshrinement. And the Dallas Cowboys 22 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:47,199 Speaker 1: have three three Cowboys going into the Hall of Fame. 23 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 1: And from the class of twenty twenty, we have safety 24 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, two times Super Bowl champion Cliff Harris, and 25 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: two times Super Bowl winning head coach Jimmy Johnson will 26 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: be enshrined on on Saturday. And I think this is 27 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: something very special that the NFL is doing. Because of 28 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty class not being able to actually being 29 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: TRINE last year because of COVID nineteen they're having, they're 30 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: doubling up this year to allow both of those classes 31 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: to be in TRINE.

But guys, the game, the game, 40 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: it's gonna be big, and there's a lot that you 41 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: guys we've been talking about this about all the players 42 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: that we're looking forward to seeing, but also from an 43 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: evaluation standpoint, Gang, talk about how important this game is. 44 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 1: And Jesse, I'll start with you. Well for the valuation point, 45 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: every time you get a chance to get on film 46 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: and get on the field in live action, yes, you 47 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,839 Speaker 1: would love to make the team that you're currently with, 48 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: but this is not only an audition for the Dallas Cowboys. 49 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: This is also an audition for thirty one other football 50 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 1: teams around the football league because rosters will get turned, 51 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: chopped up, twitched, and all other kinds of things. And 52 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,239 Speaker 1: so when you put stuff out there on film, you 53 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,559 Speaker 1: just never know who who else is watching your performance, 54 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: and so you know when you hear it, like you know, 55 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: when Tek's been missing some time. If I'm a backup guy, 56 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, Tank, Tank, take your time, Amari, take your time. 57 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,839 Speaker 1: You know, Dak, you know what I think, another week 58 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: for the show, that will be just fine. Now, you know, 59 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: when guys start missing time and you're you're kind of 60 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: on the fringe or that bubble. You're you're you're you're 61 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 1: not praying for other guys to get hurt, but you 62 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: ain't rushing them back. And so first out the gate, 63 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: you want to put a good impression out there for 64 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: the coaches because when they go back and evaluate the film, 65 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: you want them to see, oh, he's taking and applying 66 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: the things that he learned in the film room. And 67 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: I've watched him progress from what we told him at 68 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: OTAs or mini camps and now seeing in a live 69 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: action and whether that be you know, for routes or 70 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: assignment alignment, depth running to the football. The one thing 71 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 1: that I will say in these early preseason games, what 72 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: coaches want to see from you. They want to see 73 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: you going one hundred miles an hour. The scheme is 74 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 1: going to be very basic. That'll tell who's studying, who's 75 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: not studying, who's ready for the big stage, who's kind 76 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: of not right ready for the big stage. But are 77 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: you flying around playing football at a very high level 78 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: and a fast pace. So you know, you only get 79 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: one time to make a first impression, and so you 80 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,679 Speaker 1: better go out there and put some good stuff on film, 81 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: because you know that can now dictate where you go 82 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: the next week, as far as where you get reps at, 83 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,559 Speaker 1: moving you up the depth chart and things of that nature. 84 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: You hit it on the head. I was gonna leave 85 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: with the first impression. You don't get that back. So yeah, 86 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: you still appreciate the connection. D fight tread right there, 87 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: lock it up. I'm saying, yeah, yeah, we'll come up 88 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: with their hands hits from the street, milk and milk 89 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: and hey, yeah, and so do you get one first 90 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: impression all these guys is is this is very important 91 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 1: for these guys. These guys need to come out and 92 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: not only come out there and go one hundred miles 93 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: per hour, right, not only compete, but also execute. Can 94 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: you take like like you said, can you take what's 95 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: being taught on the film room? Can you take this 96 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: this fast eight days of install right and go out there, 97 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,719 Speaker 1: and yeah, it's gonna be dumbed down. But at the 98 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 1: same time, the coach is gonna throw you into the 99 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: hot water. You were gonna be gassed. You are not 100 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: coming off that field. Right. You can look at the 101 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: sideline all you want to, but you better should a 102 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: matter of fact, don't look at the sideline because you 103 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: look at the sideline. That means that you want to 104 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: come out popping some flower seeds like this. You're good, 105 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: you're good, and he's gonna bring a water bottle on everything, 106 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: But don't expect to come out the game. So they 107 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: want to see your grit. They want to see how 108 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: competitive you are. They want to see you gas, right, 109 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 1: because when your gas, the first team that goes is 110 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: what your mental right? Right? The mental goals right? So 111 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: can you remember your assignments? Is it important enough for 112 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: you to still continue to execute even though we know 113 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: that you're dog tired, even though you know you're not 114 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 1: coming out this game. Oh and by the way, yeah, 115 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: as soon as you finish up with that play, Yeah, 116 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: we're gonna see you all on one of the special teams. Right, 117 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: So you're gonna be You're gonna be army crawling up 118 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: about this piece. They want to see that and they 119 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 1: want to see physical. These guys are trying to install 120 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: a new culture with this with this team, with this organization. 121 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: Are you going to live up to what they're trying 122 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: to put down? I think to something to keep an 123 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: eye on is the coaching staff in general, just their 124 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: communication and how they're able to communicate only with themselves 125 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: with the players, especially if they're wanting to keep the 126 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: scheme a little more simple. And these are not going 127 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: to be the starters that we're going to be seeing, right, 128 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: We're going to see a lot of those third enforce 129 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,919 Speaker 1: string players and how they're learning and absorbing all of this. 130 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: But I want to see how the coaching staff communicates 131 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: as well. I know that like some of the court, 132 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: like dan Queminsy is going to be up in the 133 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: box like not on the field, So I think that's 134 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: just important too, of and not only the new coaches 135 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: on the staff, but just working off the staff that 136 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: was here last year because they didn't have like the 137 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: normal install for everything like that. So I think that's 138 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: going to be important too. Is not only is this 139 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: game important along with the rest of the preseason games 140 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: for those non starters for film like you guys were 141 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: talking about, but I think the coaching staff too, of 142 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: not making the same mistake last year with a slow start, 143 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: like making sure you are coming right out of the 144 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: gun and everyone is on the same page. And I 145 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: think also to add to that what you just said 146 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: to any is that for this team and going back 147 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: to last year, guys that did not have a preseason. 148 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: This is the first time in a long time where 149 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: even your rookie class from last year has never played 150 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: in a preseason. So guys like Reggie Robinson, guys like 151 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: Bradley and I, guys that didn't get an opportunity to 152 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: put out that preseason film for college you know, really, yeah, 153 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: since your first impression exactly, and so I mean even 154 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: Ben d Nucci, we think about our first impression of 155 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: Ben d Nucci was Sunday night in Philadelphia. I mean, 156 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: that's a tough audition for anybody. And so these preseason 157 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: games are going to be pivotal for these guys. But 158 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: like I said, the evaluation process for third, third, and 159 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: fourth string guys and for me, one of the guys 160 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: that I'm pointing the spotlight under is Malik Turner. Malik 161 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: Turner is a guy in camp that you continuously hear 162 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: his name. Now for the semi foo hookos, for all 163 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: these other guys that are out there, and specifically the 164 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: first five roster spots, we're thinking that this is a lock. 165 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: Malik Turner is making a case for himself. Who else 166 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: do you guys see on this roster ninety man roster 167 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: that maybe on the outside looking in, but they're making 168 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: a case for themselves. And Danny, I'll start with you. 169 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: I think I think a name that people that's been 170 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: doing well at camp then maybe people have forgotten about 171 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: is Maurice Kennedy because he opted out last year. And 172 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: I think the addition of some of these defensive backs 173 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys brought in really sparked a fire under 174 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: a lot of those guys and just kind of really 175 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: going out and taking advantage of the opportunity at camp. 176 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: And so I think that's a name. I mean, we 177 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,320 Speaker 1: talk about maybe not having full confidence in the depth 178 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: and the secondary just because a lot of new pieces 179 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: have been added or a lot of younger players are 180 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 1: coming off injury, and so I think that's not really 181 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 1: set on whose first or second string or third or fourth. 182 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 1: I think it's a little more open than maybe in 183 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 1: the past, and I think Maurice Kennedy is a name 184 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: that might be pushing his way into the into that range. Yeah, 185 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: I mean, that's definitely one of the names. And I 186 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: kind of have a broken down by position. I think, 187 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: you know, to your point at the receiver position, right 188 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: one through five, is pretty much locked, right, and I 189 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: think you can really really kind of still of a 190 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: toss up. Are you gonna bring six? Right? And if 191 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: you bring six? Okay? Well, now one of these guys 192 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: have to beat out Noah Brown, right, including the draft peak. 193 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: So Simmi Bohoco, you like a Malik Turner. Malie Turner 194 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 1: has experienced in the league. This is not somebody who's 195 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: brand new hasn't touched the field. The boy got experienced, 196 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: and he has experienced in the areas that Simmi might 197 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 1: not be that experienced in in terms of special teams, right, 198 00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: So he's gonna have to go out there and show 199 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: that he can. He can do that because everybody who's 200 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: playing receiver can catch the ball, right, So what the 201 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: things they're gonna be asking them to do? Blocking and 202 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: them special teams. When you start looking at the safeties, 203 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: I want to see Israel Mukuam. I want to see 204 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: Reggie Robinson and what all those guys gonna do. Right. 205 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: Israel is a converted corner, right, big boy, he got 206 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: some foot he got some footwork. Can he go out 207 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: there and make some plays? Can he lay the hat? 208 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: Because this defense is gonna be fast and physical. You 209 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: start looking at the corners, Nashan right, right e, mister 210 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: Ihonda himself, right, Kennedy, what are those guys gonna do? 211 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: Are they gonna come out there and put some hands 212 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,559 Speaker 1: with some guys? Even though the coverages are gonna be 213 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: pretty basic, it's still gonna be what they like, man coverage. 214 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: Can we come out there and put some put some 215 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: pressure on them at the line of scrimmage and linebackers. 216 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 1: You're hearing, you're hearing. Luke Gifford's balling out right. You 217 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 1: got Bernard and was here all last year. That nobody 218 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 1: knows what he can do. We've heard good things for 219 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: him in camp in practice, right, but we don't know 220 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,719 Speaker 1: what he could do in the game. And a defensive line. 221 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: I want to see Bradley and I we haven't seen that. 222 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: We haven't seen the boy in the year, right, we haven't. 223 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: We didn't see him all last year. That boy got 224 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: a nice check all last year and just chilling, right, 225 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: just chilling. Now he has to go out there and 226 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: be honest with you. This is his time to earn 227 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 1: that check then he got last year. In this preseason 228 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna try to veer off a little bit 229 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 1: from just players names, and you listed a bunch of 230 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: guys and Leek Turner being one of them to me 231 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 1: being another one of them. But the rest of the 232 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,599 Speaker 1: guys that you name were defensive guys. Dan Quinn, we 233 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: just the first time we get a chance to see them. Yeah, 234 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: this is the first time we get a chance to 235 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: see you in all lives. Is going to be if 236 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: we're If we're being honest, no one's really worried about 237 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 1: us offensively, as long as that comes back a little 238 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: bit healthy and we'll get more into that Dak situation 239 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: a little bit later onto the show. But offensively we're 240 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: set zeke Amari, you know, CD, we're good, Tyrn, we're straight. 241 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: But dan Quinn, this is we're we're looking at you, 242 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: dan Quinn. This is now as well as the other 243 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: guys who are going out there for their audition. I 244 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 1: know that dan Quinn has skins in the game, but 245 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: you always got no skins here and what this defense 246 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: was last year. We're looking for a vast improvement quickly, 247 00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: because that was my that was my next quest. Look, so, 248 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 1: so what are you guys looking for from the twenty 249 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: twenty Cowboys defense to the twenty twenty one cowboy defense 250 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: and this is visible immediate impact of Dan Quinn. What 251 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: are you looking for in that defense? I mean, obviously 252 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: this is preseason, but what are the signs for what 253 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: you And I'm letting you finish your point because you 254 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: were actually going into that question. So what are you 255 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: looking for for me? I'm looking for assignment alignment football, 256 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: our guys actually lining up right. We saw so much 257 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 1: last year. We saw guys lining up all over the place, confused, 258 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: not knowing where they're going, busted coverages, and then once 259 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: once I know that they're lined up correctly with the 260 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 1: new scheme that's coming in, are you executing it? Are 261 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: guys being where they're supposed to be? And then third 262 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: and foremost, are are you making the play right? We've 263 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: saw film last year where guys were standing in the 264 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: gap they were supposed to be in and all of 265 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,079 Speaker 1: a sudden their brains said, you know what, let's go 266 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: to the other gap. And they go to the other 267 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: gap and a guy comes writing the gap there was 268 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: for four to yard touchdown or DB's missing there. Assignment. 269 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: I need to see alignment assignment football and then executing it. 270 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: Isaiah said it earlier being physical. Dan Quinn is a physical, 271 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: physical defensive coordine that he wanted guys to be physical 272 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage, at the point of attack. 273 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: This is the moment that you have. You've been hitting 274 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: the other guys, you know, keep your guys healthy, keep 275 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: your guys up. Now at the time you can go 276 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: ahead and tee off. Go ahead and tee off on 277 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: some of these guys and let me know that you're 278 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: a physical football player. You know what a hell of 279 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: line up at and you know what to do once 280 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: you get there. So that's gonna be what I need 281 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 1: to see from this defense is assigmon alignment football and 282 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: being physical. So we're gonna be looking at you, dan Quinn. 283 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: I don't care if you're in the booth at the 284 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: hot dog stand on the sideline. We need to see 285 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: this defense look different than what we did a year ago. 286 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 1: What about you, Danny, When you said the word confused, 287 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: I was like, Hey, that's the word I was thinking of. 288 00:13:55,320 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: You stole out that. It's just good' all the same age. 289 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: That was so mind boggling to me last year. It 290 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: was just you could see the looks of confusion out 291 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: on the defense and what was so frustrating to watch 292 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: was with the execution miss tackles. I just feel like 293 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: they couldn't bring any any player from the offense, didn't 294 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: matter what position they struggled to bring everyone to the 295 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: ground or catching up with them like that, That to 296 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: me was what stood out. And so I'm going to say, like, 297 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: I want to see better execution with tackling and generally 298 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: less confusion. Maybe a little more confidence in what they're 299 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: doing would be nice. I'm excited. I'm excited more so 300 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 1: probably to anybody else in this organization to simply be 301 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: aside from mister Jones, But I know what dan Quinn's 302 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: capebole of. I've been on the team. I was in 303 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: Seattle when dan Quinn was there, right. Obviously we had 304 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: Gus Bradley as well, but dan Quinn was a part 305 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: of that staff, and I'm looking I'm so looking forward 306 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: to the culture change. I'm so looking forward to seeing 307 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: guys not only just not just the effort, not just 308 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: the execution, not just the communication, but the confidence of 309 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: these guys running around and hitting people, being disruptive. That's 310 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: what dan Quinn is about. Dan Quinn wants fast, physical 311 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: players that are disruptive. He wants you, he wants you 312 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: just looking all over the place, not knowing what the 313 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: hecks going on, because his guys are just just just fast, right, 314 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 1: and they're relentless, and their effort doesn't stop. And every 315 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: time you step on the field, you don't know who 316 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: the heck to look out for it because they're all 317 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: coming right. And I guess well, and so when you 318 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 1: think that you got those guys figured out, He's bringing 319 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: in subs and these boys got the same gold juice 320 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: as well. So I can't wait to see just the 321 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: culture change and see the response from Cowboys Nation, because 322 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna be fun to watch this defense. You talk 323 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: about a and I love that the culture is something 324 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: that Isaiah that you harp one, you know, and we've 325 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: talked a lot about that, and we've also talked about 326 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: Dan Quinn, but his The pressure for this defensive coordinate, 327 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 1: first year defensive coordinator, is immense because of the Cowboys 328 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: failures last year. I mean, you're talking about a defense 329 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: before Mike Nolan came in, they were probably at the 330 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: median fifteen, number fifteen, sixteen in the league right sometimes 331 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: finishing within the top ten. Last year, it completely fell 332 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: through the floor. All right, So you bring in dan Quinn, 333 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: the expectations are high, and you know, look you here 334 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: coaches say it all the time. Pressure bus pipes will 335 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: make diamonds, but most of the time it's just buspipes. 336 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: So but but dan Quinn is in a situation where 337 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: he has to have a defense that is first and 338 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: foremost addicted to stop in the run because that is 339 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: the first rule of defense, and not fight club, but defense. Right, 340 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: you have got to stop the run, and we could 341 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: not stop anyone. But what I'm looking for is the 342 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: front front seven. Okay, we talked about you hear the 343 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: team talk about the length that they brought in, guys 344 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: like Quinn, Bohannah, urban Oci, Digizula, guys that are long 345 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: that can play multiple positions. I want to see how 346 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 1: that operates in real time. You said we're gonna keep 347 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: it very simple, and you've seen that vanilla take from 348 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: training camp that they're keeping it simple. But one of 349 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 1: the things that you can't fake in even its simple, 350 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 1: it's effort in execution and getting to the ball. So alignment, assignment, 351 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 1: everything that you just said as well are some of 352 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: the things that I'm looking for. But when I circle 353 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: one particular group, it is the defensive line group. And 354 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,360 Speaker 1: from that group, Quentin Bohannah from Kentucky is starting to 355 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: make headway in that regard. What have you guys been 356 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,959 Speaker 1: hearing about Bohannah from training camp as well? I've been 357 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: hearing that he's a dog. I mean, he's a big boy, right. 358 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: But you know to your point, you know, when you 359 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: line up and you play these preseason games, everybody's running 360 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 1: simplified things. You're not seeing office alignment, doing a whole 361 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 1: bunch of passing off and all the j you're not 362 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 1: seeing stunts. They're gonna he's gonna line up, He's gonna 363 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: line up over a guard or a center. He's gonna say, hey, 364 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 1: I'm coming at you, big fella, and we're gonna see 365 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: can you beat somebody man, a man without schemes? Can 366 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: you beat this guy that? Can you beat this other 367 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: grown man? Right when you don't have a bunch of 368 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 1: schemes that help you and give you the advantage. And 369 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to seeing him transition and translate what 370 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: he's been doing a camp and take it out there 371 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: against somebody that he has a face before. Yeah, and 372 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, No, I's gonna say someone for his it's 373 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 1: like three thirty. Like he's quick. Yeah, I mean he's big, 374 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: but like he's not slow by any means. And that's 375 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,919 Speaker 1: definitely an area that they really needed to improve on 376 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: from last year. And so I think that they're hopeful 377 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: in that. And I mean, they obviously drafted him with 378 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: the intention right of what they needed him for, and 379 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 1: so I'm excited to see that they actually have like 380 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: a nose tackle that, you know, the size and maybe 381 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 1: the capability, because in the past they've kind of slimmed 382 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 1: down like what they've been looking for in nose tackles. 383 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: I think that'll be different too with him and for him, 384 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: you gotta understand Pittsburgh, They're gonna have some guys in 385 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 1: that offensive line who are just as hungry as he is. Pittsburgh, 386 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: who notoriously has been known to have decent offensive lines, 387 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: have been down for the last couple of years and 388 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 1: they're trying to rebuild that. So they're going to have 389 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: people who are matching the same energy as Big Bow 390 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: and that's going to be the interesting thing is what 391 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 1: happens now when you have to face someone else who 392 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: is fighting for a job as well. Yeah, that's the difference. 393 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 1: It's I'm telling you one thing is you know happens 394 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: in training camp because we laugh, we joke, we have 395 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: a good time. You're my teammate, you're teammate, We're gonna 396 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 1: go hard. But when there's someone else who doesn't care 397 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 1: about you at all, who like who you're standing in 398 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 1: between them and making the team and their bread and 399 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: feeding their family, that that brings a different type of dynamic, 400 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: dynamic and energy and effort from guys. And we talk 401 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: about this defense as a whole. But and then the 402 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: reason why I said dan Quinn is because dan Quinn 403 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: is on the road of redemption as well. When he 404 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: was in Atlanta right as the head coach, they thought 405 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 1: that his defense was going to be able to play 406 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,159 Speaker 1: better than what it did. It didn't and whether that 407 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: be injuries or whatever it may be. We were looking 408 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 1: in Atlanta, they were looking for that Seattle dan Quinny. 409 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 1: They didn't get it. And one of the reasons why 410 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: he lost his job in Atlanta because they didn't get 411 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: what they thought they were going to get from dan 412 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 1: Quinn from Seattle and Dallas is looking for that Seattle 413 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: dan Quinn and right, So while these players are on 414 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: the road to redemption. So it's dan Quinn. So there's 415 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: a lot to be proven in these next couple of games. 416 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 1: And tonight starts that all off. So you know he's 417 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 1: gonna have to put a bunch out a group of 418 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 1: out there who's gonna go out there and compete not 419 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 1: only for their jobs. But again, dan Quinn, you're you're 420 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: fighting to get your name back in the good graces 421 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: of the football world. Now, Uh, you know from from 422 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: your falloff a year or so ago, I love I 423 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: love what you said because everyone, not only the coach, 424 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,880 Speaker 1: players playing for their jobs and putting the good tape 425 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: out there for other opportunities. The same can be said 426 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 1: about coaching. Uh, these guys are doing their best, so 427 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: they know that they're the eyeless guy. Don't lie. We're 428 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 1: watching everything and all of your schemes. And again, when 429 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 1: you talk about the Cowboys, you talk about the cowboy defense. 430 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 1: I like to relate to what David Hellman said about 431 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 1: David Hellman beat right, uh and from the co host 432 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 1: of The Break talking about Quinn Bohanna being a trash 433 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: can full of dirt, a guy that's just gonna sit 434 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: in that middle. He's an immovable object. And this is 435 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 1: what this defense needed. Last year we didn't have that. 436 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: You talk about guys standing in a gap. I just 437 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: saw guys just kidding, taken to the gate already gets 438 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: and when you have linebackers that have they've gone down 439 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 1: a little bit, all right, and the defensive health wise too, 440 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: but the defensive line had a lot to do with 441 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: that did not help those guys at all. So getting 442 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,719 Speaker 1: those fresh bodies, getting those package of substitute package substitution 443 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,879 Speaker 1: packages that we're talking about to carry this team. This 444 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: imperative to me in in the preseason to see who's 445 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: gonna be those guys. Who's the guy in camp that's 446 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 1: just gotten used to going up against the same guys 447 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 1: and know this offense, know what those plays are, and 448 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: you can get off based off of that. Here we 449 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: get in some new blood and so we're gonna take 450 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: our first break here on hanging with the boys, and 451 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna come right back. We gotta call no no. 452 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 1: We actually gonna have Nate owned video today. We figured 453 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,959 Speaker 1: out how to show Nate how to get his video up. 454 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: So Nate's gonna be joining us. And then We're gonna 455 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,719 Speaker 1: come back in the second segment to also talk about 456 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons and some of his advancements that he's making. 457 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 1: Is that the end for a lot of the guys 458 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,159 Speaker 1: that you're used to. That's called a tease, Isaiah, and 459 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: we'll be back here. I'll stay with us here on 460 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 1: hanging with the boys.

We talked a 582 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: lot about bo Hannah. We also talked about Noah Brown. 583 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,479 Speaker 1: Talk about when you're seeing out there in ox are 584 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: the some of those names that we had those question 585 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 1: marks by that guys that are solidifying themselves on this roster. 586 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: Bohannah and just and Hampton, I think it is those 587 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: are the two guys. Uh, they're in a battle with 588 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: all veterans. You know how you have Tiger and the 589 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: rest of the field where these two young guys are 590 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: in battles for that base defense, first down, second down. 591 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: Being able to get into the preseason and play and 592 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: do it with a flare that will keep both of 593 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 1: them on the active roster. You know, when I worry 594 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: about the practice roster. Right now, we're talking about the 595 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: active roster because they're talking to Will McClay and and 596 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: Dan quinn. These two guys are gonna begin every opportunity 597 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: to make this roster. And that's how they will make 598 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: the roster. Being aware of who you are and what 599 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: you're brought in here for, and that's to be run 600 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: stop us first. We'll get into the pass rush and 601 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: all other stuff after you to show that you can 602 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: be dominant run stoppers. And talking to Will McClay he 603 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: said that the Bohannan kid, they call him an old 604 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: soul because he knows what he's in here to do. 605 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: He's got to calm about him when he plays, and 606 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: he knows that he's here to eat up bodies, to 607 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: soak up stuff so that the linebackers and the extra 608 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 1: safetists can run to the ball and run down situations. 609 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 1: I'm tell you something gotta be brewing with Maurice Kennedy. 610 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna be a safe there, 611 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: whether he's gonna be a corner. This guy is making plays, 612 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 1: so he's gonna be pushing somebody. Malik Turner is gonna 613 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: be pushing somebody because I think the fifth round pick. 614 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: The other kid, I'm eighty one. I can't pronounce his 615 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: name correctly, but a draft pick. Those two guys gonna 616 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: be battling. And I also asked Will McClay about Jabril Cox. 617 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: I said, this kid hasn't been doing much because there's 618 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: not a lot of reps in practice. I say, but 619 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: in the preseason, And I say, what if you get 620 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: like the kid Wilson for Seattle, the quarterback where he 621 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: came in as the backup, but he played so well 622 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: in preseason to all of a sudden he got projected 623 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: as a starter. I say, what if that situation arises 624 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: with Jabril or some of these other young guys. He said, 625 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: that's gonna be weighed in heavily. So a lot of veterans, 626 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 1: especially second year guy and third year guys that got 627 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 1: that veteran status. But now I'm not gonna be playing 628 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: much in the preseason. Don't lose your job because these 629 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: guys that Jess, I wish you was out here, and 630 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 1: I hate to say that I wish you was out 631 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: here because you know and stand back and I know 632 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: you coming. You will see that these guys are getting reps. 633 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 1: All of these guys we've mentioned are getting reps. They're 634 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 1: getting a lot of reps. So the competition is there, 635 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 1: and by guys not playing in that first game, that 636 00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: could be a hindrance. N We talked about this earlier 637 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 1: in our show, Um, the visible immediate impact of dan Quinn. 638 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: When you look at what this draft was this year, 639 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: this was a dan Quinn defensive draft. He had his 640 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: hands on a lot of these picks. Eleven overall picks 641 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,479 Speaker 1: the Cowboys had in this draft, most of them on 642 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 1: the defensive side. And while we're looking at a bunch 643 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: of these players out here in the game on tomorrow, Um, 644 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:25,959 Speaker 1: are you hearing anything about, you know, the little bit 645 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: of pressure being on dan Quinn and him having to 646 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 1: show up and get this defense looking much better than 647 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: the day a year ago. Oh, he's well aware of that. Man. 648 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: He's where I've elevate and and I don't know his 649 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: coaching style, but I've seen what he's been trying to do, 650 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: especially with the interior defensive lineman Jesse. We know stand back. Heck, 651 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: when we all know that it's Kurt there, I'm leaving 652 00:32:54,400 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: Kurt out of k Kurt turning said Danny serect. Okay, Danny, Daddy, 653 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:05,959 Speaker 1: how you doing, young lady. These he knows that his 654 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: job is to get the middle of our defensive line 655 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 1: correct and to solve that problem because he knows that 656 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:17,959 Speaker 1: that if Bohannan and these other guys don't do their jobs, 657 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: that it will still be the same. It will still 658 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: be the same, averaging one hundred and thirty one hundred 659 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: and sixty yards per game Russian. If you can run 660 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: in the middle of a defense, you cannot stop play action, pass, 661 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: You cannot stop what's happening on the outside. You don't 662 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: know what's coming, You cannot dictate anything. So that has 663 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: been him and Will mcclay's goal. And he's been everyday 664 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: during practice and out the practice working with the interior 665 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: defensive and I'm to my defensive tackles, the three technique 666 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 1: over the guards and this one technique, zero technique over 667 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: the centers. He's been working with these guys. He's been 668 00:33:55,920 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: hitting sleds, hitting dummies, doing hand drills. He is forcing 669 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: the issue with these young guys and and with the 670 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: guys that have brought in through free agency. So, yeah, 671 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 1: he knows this pressure, man, but I think he wants it. 672 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 1: I think he's He's said, Nate, I got my hands 673 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,919 Speaker 1: back on the pulse of the team, and I think 674 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: sometimes as the head coach, you have to rely on 675 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 1: your assistants and your coordinators to keep you there. And 676 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 1: he saying, you know what, I don't want to stay 677 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: here forever as a diva's a coordinator. But I feel 678 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: good again that I'm back home because this is what 679 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: he says. He's he was born and bred to do 680 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:35,759 Speaker 1: an st stephensive Linda, Nate. We've seen out recently out 681 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: of in training camp that Connor Williams has been taking 682 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: some snaps at center under Tyler Beardish, and that's meant 683 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,720 Speaker 1: that Connor McGovern has gotten some snaps at left guard. 684 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 1: What have you seen from the two of them in 685 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: their respective positions out there. I've been watching more of Connor, 686 00:34:54,280 --> 00:35:00,359 Speaker 1: especially when he goes to center. You know, he's okay 687 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: once he snaps the ball and it's not a disaster. 688 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: You know, he's inconsistent with the snapping. We all know 689 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,359 Speaker 1: that right there ain't gonna work in the game, so 690 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 1: he needs the preseason. He's one of the starters that 691 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: when the second unit run out at center, I hope 692 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: that they let him run out with that second unit 693 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 1: so he can get some game time, some semi bullets, 694 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 1: as you would say, of trying to do this right here, 695 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: because it's one thing that's snapping in practice, and this 696 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: is another thing snapping up under the dress, and so 697 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: he needs to be working on that. And to be 698 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: honest with you, Number sixty six mcgovernor, yesterday was two 699 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,280 Speaker 1: days ago. Was the first time I looked at him. 700 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: He looked okay, he looked at a little bit heavier 701 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: than what he is. I don't know. I don't know 702 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 1: who he is, but this preseason would be big for 703 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,840 Speaker 1: him too. So I'll be focused a lot on the 704 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,840 Speaker 1: interior play of the guards and centers, you know, the 705 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: nose tackling, the re tech me because if these guys 706 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 1: here don't show great improvement, we don't show ability to 707 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,680 Speaker 1: stop in which I know preseason ain't real, but you 708 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 1: gotta start somewhere, and these are the guys I'll be 709 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 1: looking at. Nate Dog. Good to see you, man. I 710 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:15,839 Speaker 1: look forward to seeing here in about forty eight hours, 711 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 1: my dog. But a lot of has been made of 712 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: this defensive line and this whole defense in terms of 713 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 1: trying to figure out exactly what's going on. How do 714 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 1: we resolve the issues that we had last year? How 715 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: do we resolve the issues that we have at the 716 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: backup quarterback position? What is that looking like right now, 717 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: especially with Dak Knight taking reps in practice as of 718 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: late dead. You know, bro, you know, I want to 719 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 1: believe that preseason would change things for these backup guys, 720 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: but it better be a hundred percent change. You can't 721 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: tell me come on in, sweetheart. You know that if 722 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 1: I'm with my wife she just finished getting the toes done, 723 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 1: you can't tell me it's nowhere in the world. I 724 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: started out the most optimistic guy in the world about 725 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: our backup quarterbacks. But if they can't do better than 726 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:21,879 Speaker 1: what they've been doing in practice, it's not gonna be nice. 727 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: And so I don't want to say that our backup 728 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:28,279 Speaker 1: quarterback is on somebody's else ross that this time, but 729 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 1: I will say, started with his first preseason game, the 730 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 1: most critical position that Dave should be looking at, besides 731 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: the defense interior defense, is the backup quarterback. These guys 732 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,880 Speaker 1: are gonna have to step up, you know, because we 733 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 1: can't afford I wonder it's so small, we cannot afford 734 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,760 Speaker 1: to say, well, if dak miss won, or two games 735 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 1: that can't happen, that can't happen. You know, that just 736 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 1: can't happen. I mean, and I hate to be so crucial, 737 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 1: you know, having the positive for the defensive line and 738 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: all of this to come to the backup quarterback. I 739 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 1: hope it stayed like that backup quarterback. We are. We're 740 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,839 Speaker 1: alive on video chat with the great Nate Newton from 741 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:17,600 Speaker 1: the s WPC Morgan Studios. And Nate, you know, you 742 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: got on us about our overuse of the word dog. 743 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,359 Speaker 1: You got on us and you told us, look, man, 744 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: you guys are using that word way too much. But 745 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: I gotta talk to you about Michael Parsons, because Michael Parsons, 746 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,279 Speaker 1: from everything that I'm hearing coming out of Oxnard, is 747 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,959 Speaker 1: that he is that dog on the defense. He's looking 748 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 1: at playing multiple positions, and I've even heard that he's 749 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: out there with the green dot on his helmet calling 750 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: some of the defenses for a young guy. Do you 751 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 1: think that that is too much too soon? Or is 752 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 1: that dan Quinn kind of just taking the training wheels 753 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 1: off and allowing the young rookie to spread his wings. 754 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 1: Let him spread his wings, because the games would tell 755 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: us everything we know. If he does okay in the 756 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: first preseason game out of having an over a year 757 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: off from football, hey my hats off to him. I 758 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: don't expect for him to really catch you on these 759 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,839 Speaker 1: things about the fourth or fifth game. And once he 760 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 1: catches his own and gets his instincts back with the 761 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 1: ability for the coaches to help him to read his keys, 762 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 1: then I will start making judgments on the hint, not 763 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 1: only him and this whole defense we were. You know, 764 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: I went overboard just so I went overboard last year, 765 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: just all just praising this thing. I'm not gonna do 766 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 1: that this year. You're gonna have to show me that 767 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 1: you are that dog, you know, and all of them 768 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 1: on the chains. I mean, I don't big chains. I 769 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 1: got you on a little swivel. You can break the 770 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 1: snap at anytime you feel necessary, because I need somebody 771 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: out there hungry and ready to eat. So I ain't 772 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: gonna put him on big, big chains. But I just 773 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 1: I just gotta because I saw Parsons fly around when 774 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 1: with no pads on, and he was playing the situations 775 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 1: in the downs, and he was lying around making a 776 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 1: lot of plays. I see now where he's a let Hezardan. 777 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 1: He's taking a few more steps, you know, before he 778 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 1: get he recognizes things. But once he recognizes, he's gone 779 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 1: in a flash. And he's still getting his hands on 780 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 1: a few balls, but not at our interception to day. 781 00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:17,880 Speaker 1: You know, he was getting the interception to day between 782 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 1: him and Kennedy. It's like they made you wanted to 783 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 1: go out and just say, hey, man, can we get 784 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 1: Tom Brady so we can complete the fast because that's 785 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,319 Speaker 1: at the rate they was taking the ball out of there, 786 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: it slowed down a little bit since they put on 787 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 1: the pads. Well, Nate, I want to thank you for 788 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,960 Speaker 1: joining us on your show here and hanging with the boys. 789 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 1: I know that we're interrupting your pedocure.

Isaiah 842 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: stand back, Jesse Holly and Danny Serek and guys, you know, 843 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,920 Speaker 1: I've been doing my what the heck? And so last 844 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 1: week we let someone take over the what the heck 845 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 1: and then I had to smooth him soothe him over. 846 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,359 Speaker 1: So we're not gonna do that. I got my own 847 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 1: what the heck this week. But my what the heck 848 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 1: is for a guy that I think has to get 849 00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,399 Speaker 1: more consideration for the Hall of Fame. And a lot 850 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,279 Speaker 1: of the beat writers and guys around here have said 851 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 1: his name quite a bit, but Darren Woodson, Darren woods 852 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,879 Speaker 1: into me and now in all the barbershop conversations about hey, well, 853 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 1: Steve Atwater's got to go in, you know, Steve Atward 854 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,879 Speaker 1: has got to be in there first before Darren does. Well, 855 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 1: guess who's getting in shrine this weekend, Steve Atwaters. So 856 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: that argument is moot. You can't have that. But you're 857 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 1: talking about a guy with thirteen hundred tackles. There was 858 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 1: no one during his reign that was like him and 859 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 1: what he did free safety, strong safety, box linebacker, a 860 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:37,840 Speaker 1: shore tackler, and I mean a devastating tackler for the 861 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. He's been overlooked and even sometimes I think 862 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,720 Speaker 1: handing his number out to certain individuals on the roster. 863 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 1: That's got stopped because no one, if you're gonna give 864 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 1: it to twenty eight to someone, he better be a thumper, 865 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:52,799 Speaker 1: he better be a banker. We have to look at 866 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 1: twenty eight the same way that we look at eighty 867 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 1: eight and some of the other numbers. But that's just 868 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: my take on it. But I am saying what the 869 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 1: heck to Darren Woodson and the Hall of Fame because 870 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 1: this guy has got to be up for consideration asap immediately. 871 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: I agree with you, and not only is Woody one 872 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 1: of my favorite football players from yester years. What is 873 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,360 Speaker 1: one of my favorite people, like what he's a great 874 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:23,840 Speaker 1: dude man, so all around, Ring of honor, Hall of fame, 875 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 1: like Wood, he deserves it all, should have it all. 876 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 1: And I hope that happens. I hope that now that 877 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,040 Speaker 1: Seevatward is in there, that Wood he gets to recognition 878 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 1: that he rightfully deserves. Yeah, whatever they're, whatever reason they're 879 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,759 Speaker 1: they're keeping him out, this is definitely the time they 880 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:43,160 Speaker 1: have to start saying Darren Woodson's name and putting that consideration. 881 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 1: We'll put some respect on his name and the consideration 882 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 1: the way that it needs you. But we we ended 883 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,799 Speaker 1: off talking about Michael Parsons, and I wanted to give 884 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,399 Speaker 1: you guys an opportunity to chime in on this as well. 885 00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 1: You don't want to hear about what the heck? No, 886 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 1: not today, We'll we'll try that again on Friday. And 887 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 1: time out, you know what the heck? Time out? You 888 00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 1: give me an anti take a yard. I went on 889 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 1: the rent last week. You know that's okay, I get it, 890 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:10,919 Speaker 1: you get it, okay. But Michael Parsons, Yeah, we talked 891 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 1: about Michael Parsons and him taking the training wheels off 892 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:18,080 Speaker 1: and him being now the guy that's taking the reins 893 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 1: from that linebacker group in competition. Guys, do you think 894 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 1: it's too soon or do you think he's right where 895 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 1: it needs to be? I think. I mean it's the 896 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:27,360 Speaker 1: expectation when you go that high end the draft. The 897 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 1: expectation is we're gonna load you up with information, We're 898 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 1: gonna load you up with responsibility, We're gonna load you 899 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,959 Speaker 1: up with opportunities to become a leader, and we're gonna 900 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,359 Speaker 1: see how do you handle it? And that's exactly what's 901 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 1: happening right now. They're just testing the waters. They're seeing 902 00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 1: what they have. How much can he bear? Right? How 903 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:42,879 Speaker 1: much can he bear? How much weight can we put 904 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:44,319 Speaker 1: on this? Do you know? It's like putting a bunch 905 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 1: of putting the back back on somebody and just keep 906 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 1: loading that thing up. At what point in time are 907 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 1: they're gonna fail? Okay, I know where they're at. I 908 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 1: know what they can handle, and that's what they're doing 909 00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 1: right now. Now. They will take that off. They'll allow 910 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 1: for him to go out the run around and hit 911 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:55,839 Speaker 1: some people in the preseason a little bit, but other 912 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:57,840 Speaker 1: than that, they'll be able to be able to gauge 913 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,880 Speaker 1: exactly what his capacity level is, and that's what's most 914 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 1: important for him right now. I don't see the harm 915 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,120 Speaker 1: in that exactly see how much he can handle that 916 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:06,719 Speaker 1: If it's a little too much early on in his 917 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:08,719 Speaker 1: rookie season, Okay, back off a little bit. I mean, 918 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,360 Speaker 1: when you take a linebacker that high, the intent is 919 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,719 Speaker 1: to have him be a leader on your team for 920 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 1: the years to come, and so they need to start 921 00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,799 Speaker 1: instilling that in him. And I also think that they 922 00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 1: want to make sure they have enough depth to have 923 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 1: some versatility in those linebackers. I mean you kind of 924 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 1: tease it earlier. HECMA like. I think this part of 925 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:31,560 Speaker 1: drafting a linebacker and giving him this responsibility is in 926 00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:34,279 Speaker 1: part a wake up call for the linebackers that they 927 00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 1: have that have not had a great season or have 928 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 1: not been able to stay healthy. And so if you're 929 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 1: going to take a linebacker that high and the draft 930 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 1: absolutely need to be able to make sure he can 931 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,880 Speaker 1: handle the responsibility in the leadership and might as well 932 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 1: see how much he can handle early on. And in 933 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 1: this preseason game, what you're going to see. You talk 934 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 1: about conditioning, and we talk about football conditioning. It takes 935 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:58,920 Speaker 1: a lot to tackle another human being, right, And so 936 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 1: people don't understand the amount of energy that is used 937 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 1: to bring down a running back. So now I got 938 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,480 Speaker 1: to bring down running running back down, get off a 939 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 1: shut off a blot, tackle them to the ground, get 940 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 1: up and get to play from band quinn and now 941 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,840 Speaker 1: come back to huddle and be able to verbalize it 942 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:18,120 Speaker 1: so that they can clearly understand it, because you can't 943 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:19,400 Speaker 1: come back to the huddle and you get the call 944 00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 1: and you're like what what what? Wait the other teams 945 00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,440 Speaker 1: in two minute drill, right, and so being able to 946 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:32,120 Speaker 1: play fast, play physical, bring another human being down a 947 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,840 Speaker 1: two hundred pound back or tight in or whatever it 948 00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 1: make me be. Next, get up, next play, get my 949 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:41,000 Speaker 1: play signal in, and now be able to verbalize so 950 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:44,400 Speaker 1: that the defense can fully understand what's happening. That's also 951 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 1: a conditioning part because when you get tired, I said 952 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:50,480 Speaker 1: a little to the earlier, the first thing to go 953 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:54,479 Speaker 1: is the mental and so I need to know can 954 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:58,319 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons handle the load of being the starting middle 955 00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 1: linebacker playing, because if he's gonna play, he's gonna play 956 00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:05,319 Speaker 1: sixty seventy plays a game. Can you get up every 957 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:08,879 Speaker 1: single time and not be mentally fatigued and be like, wait, 958 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 1: what was that call? Repeated repeated, because that clock is 959 00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 1: not gonna stop. They're not gonna be like, oh yeah, 960 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,919 Speaker 1: well wait, go ahead, Michael, Yeah, Dad could call it again, 961 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,440 Speaker 1: because he's not just responsible for his position. When you're 962 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 1: playing that mic linebacker position and you're getting those plays, 963 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 1: you're responsible for the alignment of everybody in that front seven. Right. 964 00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,399 Speaker 1: If I'm playing Mike and he's playing in my boy 965 00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:29,799 Speaker 1: Jesse's playing Will and he's a little bit too close, Hey, 966 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,000 Speaker 1: getting that hole. You're in that hole right, the defensive 967 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:34,040 Speaker 1: linement is not in line. I can't be so locked 968 00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 1: in on my assignment that I forget that. Guess what 969 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:38,960 Speaker 1: he's supposed to be a shade over right? Otherwise, if 970 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,000 Speaker 1: if he's in the hole, he's in right now, this 971 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 1: whole play is going to heck right, I need to 972 00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:44,440 Speaker 1: get you over a shade. Slap him on the butt 973 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:46,279 Speaker 1: so you see those guys slapping those dudes on the butt. 974 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:47,759 Speaker 1: It's get in the proper shade so that we can 975 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 1: make sure we get hit our proper holes. So they're 976 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:51,879 Speaker 1: gonna see. Can he not only be focused on what 977 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:54,600 Speaker 1: he's supposed to be doing, but also be responsible enough 978 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,320 Speaker 1: and be cognizant enough to know what everybody else is 979 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,239 Speaker 1: supposed to be doing. I absolutely love everything that y'all 980 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:02,279 Speaker 1: just said, and I think I thought the same thing 981 00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:05,120 Speaker 1: knowing that he's switching from Mike to Will to Sam. 982 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 1: He's learning everything and he's getting You talk about being 983 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:11,640 Speaker 1: over getting dated right now with this defensive dan Quinn 984 00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:14,280 Speaker 1: has given it to him. I think where I worry 985 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:16,200 Speaker 1: is from what Nate said. It's a guy that's been 986 00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:18,719 Speaker 1: out of football for a year and a half now, 987 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,399 Speaker 1: and so how does he get his sea legs under 988 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 1: him now? And real not that we're not talking about 989 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:28,919 Speaker 1: big ten, We're talking about NFL grown man an arena, right, 990 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 1: and so he has a lot of pressure being placed 991 00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 1: on him. But however, based off of what we've been 992 00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:37,240 Speaker 1: seeing from training camp, he's living up to those expectations. 993 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,279 Speaker 1: He is a tone setter for this defense, whereas you 994 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,400 Speaker 1: got a lot of veteran guys in that mixed ind 995 00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:44,680 Speaker 1: in that group that are not able to match what 996 00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 1: he's doing as far as a tone setter right and 997 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 1: do and as a defensive coordinator, as a coach, that's 998 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:51,799 Speaker 1: veteran players. When you see a young guy out there 999 00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 1: competing and doing those things, do you say, well, wait 1000 00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,040 Speaker 1: a minute, where's the rest of our guys? Or do 1001 00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:58,440 Speaker 1: you do you again, like I said, hand him the 1002 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 1: reins and say it's yoursla buddy. But this is the 1003 00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 1: next step, right, because practice is one thing, absolutely the right. 1004 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 1: Practice is what I can stop. It's a controlled environment. 1005 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 1: We could play over again. I can correct on the field. 1006 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,520 Speaker 1: Coaches right behind you. This is the next step, right, 1007 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:14,839 Speaker 1: This is now I want to see can you take 1008 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,240 Speaker 1: that to the to the game field and live action 1009 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:21,719 Speaker 1: where they're actually consequences, because there's no more you know, 1010 00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:23,359 Speaker 1: you run by a guy, you hit him on a hip, 1011 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:25,319 Speaker 1: Oh I got you. But that's that's not the playing. 1012 00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 1: You can't do that anymore. You can't run by and 1013 00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 1: just say oh that's a sack. No, no, no, you 1014 00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:31,120 Speaker 1: have to bring him to the ground. Practice just keeps 1015 00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,839 Speaker 1: going right, right, yeah, So now that it doesn't matter 1016 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 1: if you if you made a tack or now practice 1017 00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:40,399 Speaker 1: next play. This is this is consequence based football now. 1018 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:43,080 Speaker 1: And so for Michael Parsons, and there's well as the 1019 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 1: other guys, but Michael Parsons in general, this is the 1020 00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:48,600 Speaker 1: next step. You compete it well in training camp, you've 1021 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 1: done some great things of practice. Now if you get 1022 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 1: in the game and it all goes to hell. Now 1023 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 1: we got to rethink this again. Now we got to 1024 00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 1: start from square one again and say, all right, well, 1025 00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 1: where did we go wrong? What happened here? And kind 1026 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,400 Speaker 1: of you know, go from there. This is the progression 1027 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,399 Speaker 1: that you need to see Michael Parsons take. So this 1028 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:06,560 Speaker 1: game is huge for him. It's huge for him because 1029 00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:09,600 Speaker 1: you want to see is it just because we've seen 1030 00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,439 Speaker 1: it before. I've played with a bunch of weight room 1031 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:16,319 Speaker 1: warriors and a bunch of you know, practice kings. Then 1032 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 1: you're get in the game time and that tail get 1033 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:20,840 Speaker 1: tucked and and and you and you whip Burnton to 1034 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 1: the sideline. So this is the next progression for Michael 1035 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:27,160 Speaker 1: Parsons and others, but specifically him of saying, all right, 1036 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 1: not only am I a dog in practice, I'm a 1037 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 1: dog in the game. And you can add whatever you 1038 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 1: need to add on my shoulders because they're wide enough 1039 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:36,120 Speaker 1: and strong enough for me to take it on and 1040 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,719 Speaker 1: be successful. Now we got another dog that we got 1041 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:43,080 Speaker 1: to talk about. And this guy is all everything that 1042 00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,680 Speaker 1: I'm seeing coming out of Oxnard with eighty eight on 1043 00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:51,240 Speaker 1: its highlight real worthy. And let me frame the question 1044 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,640 Speaker 1: like this, because I want to know what you guys 1045 00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 1: ask former wide receivers in the NFL. What are your 1046 00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: expectations in the second year for a guy like Ceedee 1047 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:05,319 Speaker 1: Lamb that you're seeing right now? He is man like 1048 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 1: you talk about playmaker. It is all over him in 1049 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 1: some of the highlight real moments that he's having for camp. 1050 00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 1: But talk about the effects that a healthy dack and 1051 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,839 Speaker 1: a coach like Kelen Moore can have on Cede Lamb 1052 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:21,399 Speaker 1: in his second season. Yeah, for CD, I just want 1053 00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:24,239 Speaker 1: to see him move the chains, move the chains, big play, right, 1054 00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:26,000 Speaker 1: move the chains, move the chains, big play, make the 1055 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:28,080 Speaker 1: plays that you're supposed to make, make those tough catches, 1056 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 1: those contested catches, and then guess whatever, so often I 1057 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:33,360 Speaker 1: need you to have explosive play. Right. You still you 1058 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:35,840 Speaker 1: still got you still got Coop over there, Right, you 1059 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 1: still have some other dudes that can ball, so you 1060 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:40,560 Speaker 1: don't have to bear the weight of the entire offense. Right, 1061 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 1: But I want to see him get in there and 1062 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:44,359 Speaker 1: be physical right with his blocking. And then I also 1063 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 1: want to see him just be consistent, be consistent as 1064 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:49,040 Speaker 1: that player, and I think if he's consistent through the 1065 00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:50,600 Speaker 1: first half of the season, I think the second half 1066 00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:53,120 Speaker 1: season you'll see him explode and do some crazy things. 1067 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:56,520 Speaker 1: I feel like we almost had like an unknowing cap 1068 00:53:56,640 --> 00:53:59,520 Speaker 1: on him because and Callamore even alluded to it in 1069 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 1: one of his recent press conferences, just as a rookie 1070 00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:04,839 Speaker 1: with a shorten offseason to real training camp, they kind 1071 00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:07,080 Speaker 1: of just kept him mostly in the slot, and that's 1072 00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:09,759 Speaker 1: just out the window. He's just going to be all 1073 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:11,319 Speaker 1: over the field this year, and I feel like we 1074 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 1: don't even know what he can really do because I 1075 00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:16,520 Speaker 1: just feel like all he's done is trend upwards, and 1076 00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 1: he's taken everything that's been thrown at him, and he's 1077 00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:21,560 Speaker 1: just succeeded so far throughout his rookie season and this 1078 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:23,839 Speaker 1: training camp going into year or two that I feel 1079 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 1: like we're not even prepared for what we're going to 1080 00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:29,920 Speaker 1: see out of CD this year. They called me the 1081 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:36,359 Speaker 1: voice of reason on this show because and I love 1082 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:39,799 Speaker 1: what I see from CD. I love the progression that 1083 00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:45,360 Speaker 1: I see from CD. There's film out now right his 1084 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:49,719 Speaker 1: rookie season coming in the COVID year, preseason, all that 1085 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:51,640 Speaker 1: kind of nonsense. There was no film, and so it 1086 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:54,319 Speaker 1: was kind of like taking the league by storm. Now 1087 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:58,480 Speaker 1: there's film. Now you're a target. Now guys are looking 1088 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:02,040 Speaker 1: for you. For me with CD, I don't even care 1089 00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:05,400 Speaker 1: about this week or preseason, nothing like that. I cannot 1090 00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 1: wait until next week when the Rams come to town Saturday, 1091 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:15,920 Speaker 1: that's Saturday Saturday, whenever they do live practices, because now CD, 1092 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:20,239 Speaker 1: people are talking about you. People know you. You're gonna 1093 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:21,400 Speaker 1: have to You're gonna have to stand in front of 1094 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:25,239 Speaker 1: Jail and Ramsey. And now that's what I want to see. 1095 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:28,480 Speaker 1: I want to see now when now that you're a target, 1096 00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:31,360 Speaker 1: there is no more you walking up on folks and 1097 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 1: they don't really know what to get from you. They 1098 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:35,600 Speaker 1: didn't seeing you for a whole season. You didn't got 1099 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:37,880 Speaker 1: some you know, you didn't got some little as Jason 1100 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:40,800 Speaker 1: Garry say, a little little issue and neck. Now guys 1101 00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:44,040 Speaker 1: are saying, oh, I let's go. I want to see 1102 00:55:44,080 --> 00:55:47,880 Speaker 1: the response from that, and so I think CD is 1103 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:51,480 Speaker 1: going to be really good. I think having Amari Cooper 1104 00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:56,160 Speaker 1: outside is really significant because it takes the pressure off 1105 00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:59,120 Speaker 1: you having to be the star when I mean, the 1106 00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:00,840 Speaker 1: star is when the def it stars you, when the 1107 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:04,960 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator says, hey, we're building our secondary in our 1108 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:10,279 Speaker 1: our our rotation around eighty eight. I don't, I don't. 1109 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 1: I'm not tampering expectations. I just want people to understand, 1110 00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:18,239 Speaker 1: once people get filmed on you, once people figure kind 1111 00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 1: of thing that you'd like to do, it changes a 1112 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 1: little bit. And Amari had not CD had inconsistencies with 1113 00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:30,400 Speaker 1: catching the football last year, making some of the spectacular 1114 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:35,000 Speaker 1: sportsener catches, but the easy routine ones he dropped. And 1115 00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:37,800 Speaker 1: so that has to be the next step that he takes. 1116 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 1: You gotta make the routine look routine, and you got 1117 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 1: to make the un routine look routine. And when you 1118 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:45,759 Speaker 1: do that on a consistent basis with the target on 1119 00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:49,000 Speaker 1: your back, that's when you enter that superstar status. That's 1120 00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:51,359 Speaker 1: when you get talked about as being in the top 1121 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:55,279 Speaker 1: tier receivers across the board. It looks great in camp, right, 1122 00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,880 Speaker 1: And again, I'm not taking anything away from our dbs, 1123 00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:00,960 Speaker 1: but when when when when you got to go up 1124 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:03,000 Speaker 1: again to Jayla Ramsey and when you got to go 1125 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 1: up against you know, those other dogs. Now that makes 1126 00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:09,880 Speaker 1: me feel a little bit more confident and comfortable that 1127 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:12,920 Speaker 1: people have teen filming you four year How do you 1128 00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:15,800 Speaker 1: come back and make yourself better than you were a 1129 00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:17,600 Speaker 1: year ago. I get your point, but I won't let 1130 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:21,280 Speaker 1: you damper my excitement or my hope for him. Danny, 1131 00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 1: don't worry about that. There's a reason why I'm wanted 1132 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:29,920 Speaker 1: that practice this weekend. No, and look, and where I 1133 00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:32,400 Speaker 1: thank you guys. The caveat to that and where I 1134 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 1: believe that the mulligan has to be given to him 1135 00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 1: is the quarterback carousel love last year? Yeah, you know, 1136 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,479 Speaker 1: how do you be how do you become a great 1137 00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 1: wide receiver in this league when you go through four 1138 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:47,600 Speaker 1: or five different quarterbacks in a season, And so it's 1139 00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 1: making the spectacular routine and just the routine spectacular. Those 1140 00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 1: are some of the things that got mixed up because 1141 00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:55,720 Speaker 1: there were balls everywhere. We're talking in the break about 1142 00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 1: you know you you were talking about a quarterback and 1143 00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:00,120 Speaker 1: through to you us just like I have no no 1144 00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:02,920 Speaker 1: ball's chance in hell of actually catching this ball. And 1145 00:58:03,080 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 1: CD went through a lot of that, and you saw 1146 00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 1: how they tried to use him, lining him up in 1147 00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 1: the slot and trying to create those mismatches I think 1148 00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:11,520 Speaker 1: they stay with that. You can move him out to 1149 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:15,560 Speaker 1: the outside, but his visibility on this offense through Kelly Moore, 1150 00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:19,680 Speaker 1: which is explosive by stretching the stretching the field. I 1151 00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:23,160 Speaker 1: just think Cede Lamb can be so much more in 1152 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:27,080 Speaker 1: Kelly Moore's offense as that weapon that you know that 1153 00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:29,840 Speaker 1: you have, and you bring up Coop Michael Gallup as well. 1154 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:34,600 Speaker 1: The weapons that Kelly Moore has, it's unbelievable because if 1155 00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 1: you look at the rest of them, I mean that 1156 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:38,640 Speaker 1: Dak has. Because look, if you look at any other 1157 00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:40,919 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the league, if they had, like your top 1158 00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 1: five quarterbacks had this wide receiver group or it's the 1159 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 1: reason why the Week one matchup is what it is, 1160 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:50,920 Speaker 1: Tampa versus Dallas, because the two of the most highly 1161 00:58:50,960 --> 00:59:02,280 Speaker 1: potent offenses in the league almost did a Hollylujah dance. No, No, 1162 00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:04,400 Speaker 1: that's absolutely I mean, you're absolutely right. But I'm just 1163 00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:06,080 Speaker 1: saying as far as the matchups, when you look at 1164 00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 1: what we have versus other teams, Look, man, Ceedee Lamb 1165 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 1: is a guy that you said, once defensive coordinators start 1166 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:14,400 Speaker 1: to circle an under line and highlight a guy like him, 1167 00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:16,520 Speaker 1: what do you do with the rest of the weapons 1168 00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:18,720 Speaker 1: that you have. Oh and by the way, we have 1169 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 1: a number twenty one by the name of Zeke. You know, 1170 00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:23,600 Speaker 1: so with all of that attention being played on the outside, 1171 00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:27,000 Speaker 1: inside you may be able to take advantage of that. 1172 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:31,480 Speaker 1: So look, ceedee Lamb to me is gonna be far beyond. 1173 00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:34,520 Speaker 1: I think the salphomore Jinx is not even to be 1174 00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:38,440 Speaker 1: considered for a guy like him. But in this preseason, guys, 1175 00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:41,520 Speaker 1: just wrapping this show up, what are something Obviously we 1176 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:44,040 Speaker 1: talked about the players that we wanted to watch, but 1177 00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:47,080 Speaker 1: just from the holistic overall view, what are some of 1178 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:49,320 Speaker 1: the things that you are looking for in this Hall 1179 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:51,640 Speaker 1: of Fame game from the Dallas Cowboys nor only we're 1180 00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:54,360 Speaker 1: dealing with third, fourth, and fifth string guys. I'm watching 1181 00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:58,000 Speaker 1: special teams. Yeah, I'm watching special teams. It's the third 1182 00:59:58,000 --> 00:59:59,560 Speaker 1: of the game that people don't like to talk about. 1183 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 1: People just take for you know, take for granted. It's 1184 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:04,680 Speaker 1: very important. Right, there's a there's a punter battle going 1185 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:06,640 Speaker 1: on as well, Right, the punters are battling it out, 1186 01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:09,160 Speaker 1: So that change of possession is very important, right that 1187 01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 1: that field, that field possession is very important. How many 1188 01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:13,400 Speaker 1: are we gonna have some gunners that we can really 1189 01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:15,000 Speaker 1: rely on. Are there guys that can go down there 1190 01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:17,280 Speaker 1: enforce fair catches? Do we have some guys that can 1191 01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:19,080 Speaker 1: get off the block, you know, shed blocks on the 1192 01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:20,920 Speaker 1: interior on a punt and be able to go down 1193 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 1: there and cover those you know, can guys change directions? 1194 01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:24,880 Speaker 1: You know, everybody's gonna be all amped up? You know 1195 01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 1: what it is? Yes, you guys are running down there 1196 01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:27,920 Speaker 1: one hundred miles an hour, and then guess what as 1197 01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:29,640 Speaker 1: soon as that punt return or kick return against the 1198 01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:31,320 Speaker 1: ball and they put one little all right, and the 1199 01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:33,360 Speaker 1: guys that start tripping all over themselves. Can you break 1200 01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:35,480 Speaker 1: down and go back to your to your basics and 1201 01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:38,360 Speaker 1: your assignments and execute the right way? Because those are 1202 01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:40,320 Speaker 1: going to be the things that change the game when 1203 01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:42,840 Speaker 1: you start playing teams like Tampa. Those are the things 1204 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 1: that make the difference that third of the game, will 1205 01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:47,760 Speaker 1: change the tides on who's gonna win. No LP, latisour 1206 01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:55,560 Speaker 1: No LP. I'm sorry, what's going on? Power powder? There is? Man? 1207 01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:59,600 Speaker 1: This is I got it right.

I'm shut down, Betty, please help me out. 1210 01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:13,920 Speaker 1: We've talked a lot about third and fourth string players, 1211 01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:15,600 Speaker 1: mostly on the defensive side of the ball, but I 1212 01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 1: think offensively that offensive line. Just last you're seeing all 1213 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:22,240 Speaker 1: of the starters gone except for Connor Williams and the 1214 01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:25,440 Speaker 1: lack of consistency or communication there. If we're not going 1215 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:27,240 Speaker 1: to see the starters in the offensive line in these 1216 01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:29,960 Speaker 1: preseason games, I want to see how these backup, second 1217 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:33,840 Speaker 1: third string players are working together as one unit because 1218 01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:37,640 Speaker 1: this offensive line is injury prone, don't you know. Knock 1219 01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:39,360 Speaker 1: on with twice. I'm not going to say anything else, 1220 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:41,720 Speaker 1: but I mean I want to feel a little more 1221 01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:43,960 Speaker 1: confident in the depth of the offensive line going into 1222 01:01:43,960 --> 01:01:46,080 Speaker 1: the regular season. I just want to see guys go 1223 01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,600 Speaker 1: have fun. Like at the end of the day, training 1224 01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 1: can't ota is still football.
