It is the players louds. 0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:37.760 It's a different kind of players last today, but we're 0:00:37.840 --> 0:00:39.879 here and we're happy to do it. We're doing it 0:00:39.960 --> 0:00:42.320 virtually today. Had a little change of plan here because 0:00:42.360 --> 0:00:44.559 the COVID's been running around rapid. I am new Discuss 0:00:45.280 --> 0:00:50.640 joined by Barry Church and Danny McCray is out, gonna 0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:52.640 be out for a little second here. So the show 0:00:52.720 --> 0:00:55.280 must go on, though, it's got to go on. The 0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:58.880 famous words, the show must go on. Yes, So the 0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:06.760 Whington football teams hosting the Dallas Cowboys Sunday and landover Maryland. Barry, 0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:08.200 I want to go back to the first time you 0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:12.440 ever went to FedEx Field. What were you thinking it 0:01:12.520 --> 0:01:14.840 was gonna be? Versus when you showed up and you 0:01:14.959 --> 0:01:18.640 drove through there and you're like, it's here, man, I'm 0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:21.360 not gonna lie to my first That was my very 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:26.679 first regular season game in twenty ten and we went 0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:29.200 to Washington. We lost that game. I think that was 0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:31.640 when the Agelo Hall scoop and scored the fumble. They 0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:34.240 won like thirteen to three or something crazy like that. 0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:38.080 But that was my first time going to an NFL game, period. 0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:40.319 So then Washington was it was up there, and like 0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:42.399 you said, man, we're driving up. I'm thinking, you know, 0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:46.040 all stadiums in the NFL are glamorous, like so I 0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:48.880 went you know, small high school and Toledo. Of course 0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:50.680 that's a mid major, so the stadium is not gonna 0:01:50.680 --> 0:01:52.760 be crazy. So my man, I'm thinking, I've never been 0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:55.400 to an NFL game and I'm only driven past, you know, 0:01:55.520 --> 0:01:57.960 the Steelers stadium, and that stadium was pretty dope. So 0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:00.440 to me, I'm like, all right, man, this this is 0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:02.160 gonna be amazing. I can't wait to see you go 0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:03.960 through this tunnel and get to the locker room. It's 0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:06.880 gonna be so high tech. Man. We pulled up in 0:02:06.960 --> 0:02:09.160 their I was like what, And then we walked pack. 0:02:09.280 --> 0:02:11.120 We walked through the tunnel of the tunnel, crocks all 0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:13.680 over the tunnel. The locker rooms small and looked like 0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:15.800 it was built back in nineteen sixty five and they 0:02:15.800 --> 0:02:19.560 haven't done any reservations to it, so I was extremely disappointed. 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:22.600 But the atmosphere was pretty cool. Man atmosphere was definitely 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:26.160 pretty cool. That tradition, that rivalry is definitely alive in there. 0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:28.160 And for the most part, like we talked about the 0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:30.919 other day, it's all Cowboys fans. It's like it's like 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:33.680 a home game away from you know, Dallas. So I 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:35.720 loved going up to Washington. I got a great record 0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:38.919 against that team. So hopefully it continues on our Sunday. 0:02:39.400 --> 0:02:43.880 The thing that's weird is as you're driving through this 0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:47.200 town in Maryland and you pass RFK on the left 0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:50.160 where they used to play, where the place used to jump. 0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:52.960 So you pass the old stadium. Then you drive it 0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:59.520 through this neighborhood. You pass apartments and liquor stores and 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:03.040 in these this is kind of shopping, this kind of 0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:05.400 shopping areas, and the next thing you know, you're here. 0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:07.600 You know, it's a whole bunch of landing. The stadium 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:11.239 is there, and you're like, okay, yeah, so so what 0:03:11.280 --> 0:03:13.560 you were used to is all right, here's at and 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:16.760 T Stadium. You know, this palatial place next to you know, 0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:20.400 another baseball diamond, and then you're passing the Steelers in 0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:23.079 your Hinsfield, which is right next to where the Pirates play. 0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:25.079 Those stadiums are right there together. And then you come 0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:29.800 to this and you're like, oh, okay, and then you 0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:32.440 realize how old it is when you go down. This 0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:36.520 is an old place, man. Man, it's it's old. It's 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.120 real old, and it's real small. Like it's just like 0:03:39.160 --> 0:03:41.800 the locker rooms you know at at and T Stadium. 0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:43.800 It's like, you know, you got a whole bedroom as 0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:46.440 your locker, but in there, it's like, man, it's literally 0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:49.560 like a cubby and everybody's so tighten. Like there's offenses 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.040 on one side, then there's a wall, then there's a 0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:54.800 defense on the other. And the training room is right there, 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:57.800 so I mean, it's just it's real compact. You're right 0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:00.240 next to the opening of the stadium, so if you're 0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:02.360 playing in there in this cold, they leave the doors 0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:04.920 open in the locker room, it's freezing. So I mean 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:06.800 it's just all around. Man. They need to get up 0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:08.040 out of there, and newly they need to get up 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:10.320 out of that stadium. But okay, I don't see it 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:15.000 coming anytime soon. Well, ideally from from the things you 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:19.560 keep reading in the Washington Post is Dan Snyder wants 0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:22.719 to go to RFK. He'd like to get something built there, 0:04:22.920 --> 0:04:25.159 but that apparently is not happening. And then of course 0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:30.360 they've talked about going in Virginia someplace. So I'll say this, 0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:35.920 it's gonna be hard to find public money and votes 0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:39.760 for that stadium. Who's gonna want to vote for Daniel Sardy. 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:43.240 He's an unpopular man. He's taken the team, which which 0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:46.000 had a long list of season ticket holders over ten 0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:49.599 thousand plus, and he's whittled that damn to Now you 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:51.920 roll up in there, you know it's a home game 0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:54.400 for the other team. Cheeseheads came up in there, took 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:57.200 over last year. Colts fans were up in there. So 0:04:57.680 --> 0:04:59.680 so he's he's really done a lot of damage. And 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:03.560 these votes are hard. I remember when Denver was trying 0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:05.880 to get the votes for their stadium. They've won the 0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:09.760 Super Bowl and it barely passed. I remember when they 0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:12.640 were trying to get Cowboys stadium build here. Jerry had 0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:15.200 to work real hard and had bill parcels out there. 0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:17.480 I mean, they were out here trying to convince people 0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:19.880 they give us your vote, so you'll give us public 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:23.080 money for this stadium. So I don't know where Daniel 0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:24.320 Snyder is going to be able to go get it. 0:05:24.320 --> 0:05:25.720 And then you look at all the messages that are 0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:29.640 going on at his organization, inside the organization, and they're 0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:32.640 not winning, so I should say they're not winning championships 0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:35.000 anymore like they used to. So so we'll see. But 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:37.680 they have won four straight football games. They are two 0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:40.320 games behind the Cowboys, so this game is going to 0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:43.800 be important. Montest Sweat, one of their pass rushers is 0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:46.880 not going to be playing in this contest. We already 0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:49.480 know Chase Young, who they took in the draft last year, 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:51.920 number two overall. He's out for the season, and they're 0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:55.320 tied in Logan Thomas, who has had some pretty nice 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:57.719 games against the Cowboys past a couple of years. He 0:05:57.960 --> 0:06:00.440 will not play in this football game. So the Boys 0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:05.440 is they're getting some guys back Washington, losing some guys here. Yeah, yeah, 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:09.359 you're right about that. They lost some important pieces, definitely 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:12.360 Logan Thomas. You know, he's missed the majority of this 0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:15.320 season and then he comes back these last couple of games. 0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:17.880 He plays well against the Raiders and then boom, he 0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:19.719 takes that injury right there the last victor or the 0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:22.520 last time they played. So to me, that's a huge 0:06:22.560 --> 0:06:24.719 loss because that was kind of like their security blaming. 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:27.400 That was Heinekes like security blaming. When everything breaks down, 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:30.040 he's looking for Logan Thomas. So without him being there, 0:06:30.080 --> 0:06:33.040 I think they still have Ricky Sills Junior. I think 0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:35.400 he's still there as they're tight end. He's another one 0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:37.800 of those wide receivers slash tight end type guys, so 0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:40.320 we should be able to contain him. But even with 0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:42.400 all those injuries, we know on the defensive side of 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:44.480 the ball, Sweat, who's been out for the majority of 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:46.840 the year as well, will miss again because of COVID. 0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:50.040 But with all those injuries, they still on the offensive 0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:53.400 side of the ball, they still have those cowboy killers. 0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:56.120 And I'm talking about Gibson and I'm talking about Scary 0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:59.960 Terry McLaurin. I mean those two guys alone they do 0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:02.520 some damage to the Dallas Cowboys last time they met up, 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:05.719 I believe in Washington, Gibson went off running the football 0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:08.040 and we know what Scary Terry could do on the outside. 0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:10.120 And it's like we go through this every single time 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:12.760 we play a guy in the division that just does 0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:16.440 well gets Dallas. Look at with the Raiders, the Shan Jackson, 0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:18.880 he came back. He was a cowboy killer. Nobody knew 0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:21.120 anything about this guy this season. He wasn't doing anything, 0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:23.160 and then boom, he plays against us and goes off. 0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:25.440 So those two guys have the capabilities to be in 0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:28.120 game records. So it makes me a little bit nervous. 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.880 But I'm with you, knew I think the Boys got 0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:35.280 this handle. I look at Neville Gallamore coming back. I 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:39.760 just cannot emphasize that enough of how much I'm expecting 0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:43.480 him to be the player I saw a training camp 0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:45.679 who was an improved football player, who was the best 0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:49.320 interior defensive lineman they had. And when I go back 0:07:49.320 --> 0:07:52.040 to camp and guys that I saw improvements from, Terrence 0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:53.920 Steele was one of the guys that we saw improvement from, 0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:58.080 improvements from. We saw Cdelad making incredible plays. We saw 0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:00.640 Sean mckewen the tight end playing out of football. We 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:02.720 saw a lot of guys in that second year with 0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:06.560 a full camp that we're getting better. So I'm expecting 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:09.600 Nevill Gallimore to get out there to help fortify the 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:12.080 defensive line to help stop the run. Tristan Hill is 0:08:12.120 --> 0:08:15.880 coming back off the suspension to go along with, Hey, yeah, 0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:17.880 don't punch nobody. How about that, you know, at least 0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:21.640 not not after the game, but but hope hopefully losing 0:08:21.640 --> 0:08:24.360 that paycheck will get him in the right frame of month. 0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:29.080 And and then also Osagi Zua. So if you get 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.400 some more beef up front going on with Carlos Watkins, 0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:34.040 get some more beef up front, stop that run. Then 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:36.520 you get your defensive ends back to Tank Lawrence and 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:39.280 Rady Gregory. We know Tank Lawrence is very good at 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:41.880 helping to stop the run as well. I like what 0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:44.360 the Cowboys from a defensive standpoint they're gonna be able 0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:47.000 to bring. And then now you've got Michael Parsons with 0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:49.559 the ability to line him up in different pressure points. 0:08:49.559 --> 0:08:52.200 So I'm expecting the Cowboys and Dan Quinn to go 0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:53.679 out and fit, you know, figure out how do you 0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:56.760 stop the run? First, stop Gibson and then it's chart 0:08:56.760 --> 0:09:00.360 as far as Terry McLaurin goes, okay, hey Treyvon, go 0:09:00.400 --> 0:09:02.280 get it, go, get you know, do what you did 0:09:02.320 --> 0:09:05.199 to Justin Jefferson and other football players out there, and 0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:08.000 if Taylor Heneke wants to go ahead and throw digs 0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:09.840 his way to try and put some pressure out there 0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:13.280 for him, if I the Cowboys that welcome it. Yeah, 0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:16.319 And I'm with you on that. And you gotta be thinking, man, 0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:19.960 with these names you were throwing out along the defensive line, 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:23.000 I mean, when's the last time they were this deep 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:25.840 along that that that unit. I mean you didn't even 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:29.679 talk about Basham or Daurance Armstrong. I mean you got 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:33.000 Carlo's Watkin's returning, you know, interceptions for touchdowns we get 0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:35.360 you know, he'll returning like all those guys you just mentioned. 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:37.720 I'm just thinking to myself, like, man, I don't even 0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:40.360 know when the last time we had a defensive line 0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:43.440 that was this deep to where you could literally rotate 0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:47.559 maybe three separate units and still have high productivity like that. 0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:49.480 To me, it just blew my mind. Like I'm just 0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:52.360 sat there and thing like, Man, this team this defensively, 0:09:52.520 --> 0:09:55.280 and if they all get healthy and remain healthy, I mean, 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:58.199 this defense can be scary in the long run. I 0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:01.080 don't want to sound like a Homer. I don't want 0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:02.559 to do that. I try to make sure when I 0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:04.520 come here on the players lounge about to you by 0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:07.080 hotels dot Com that I tell it like it is. 0:10:07.840 --> 0:10:12.160 And I'm looking at the Cowboys having played three games 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:16.560 in twelve days, battling some injuries, battling some COVID and 0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:19.560 they did not look their best as they lost two 0:10:19.559 --> 0:10:22.480 of the three in that stretch. And know the New 0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:24.760 Orleans Saints win wasn't some great win like they went 0:10:24.760 --> 0:10:26.959 out there and beat Atlanta. They had to struggle, they 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:29.760 had to earn the win. But I don't think I'm 0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:32.080 being a homer when I tell you the Cowboys are 0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:34.480 now getting ready to get some reinforcements back that can 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:37.880 improve this football team for a stretch run into the playoffs, 0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:41.760 and they can improve themselves. You can do this, I mean, 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:44.440 and I say this looking back at Tampa Bay last 0:10:44.480 --> 0:10:46.439 year seven and five at one point, and people look 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:48.400 at the Buccaneers saying, hey man, we don't know if 0:10:48.440 --> 0:10:50.040 this thing is really working out with Bruce Arians and 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:52.480 Tom Brady. We don't know. And we saw them get 0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:54.640 it together. You saw a guy like Vita Vea come back. 0:10:54.880 --> 0:10:57.400 You can get better. And in fact, we saw Tampa 0:10:57.440 --> 0:11:00.640 struggling with that secondary Barry. Remember the week one Dak 0:11:00.640 --> 0:11:04.040 Prescott was torturing that secondary up there. They're getting guys, 0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:05.880 They're getting guys back, and you're starting to see them 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:08.480 play a better brand of football. So, if we are 0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:11.240 being fair and we talk about what the Cowboys are 0:11:11.280 --> 0:11:14.160 getting back and the ability to put out a lineup, 0:11:14.280 --> 0:11:17.520 they yet to have the lineup that they penciled down, 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:19.800 the lineup that they thought they had in training camp. 0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:23.120 They haven't had an opportunity to roll those guys out. 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:25.440 This could be in on Sunday and at the most 0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:29.000 important time against the team that is behind you. You 0:11:29.080 --> 0:11:30.840 go ahead and win this game. Man, You got three 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:33.440 up on him and you got four to play. Could 0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:36.920 be pretty good. You're right about that, And I'm sure 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:38.920 after we take this break, I got a question to 0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:41.760 ask you when we get back with all that, with 0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:45.840 all that along and defensive line, do you keep Parsons 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:47.960 at the linebacker or do you still do what he 0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:53.040 does best? And that's after the quarter. This we will 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:55.720 discuss after we take this break. Barry Church, Knwi Scruggs, 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:57.800 Danny mccraize out today.

I don't know 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:35.200 if he's gonna head down to the Bahamas Bowl and 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:36.920 not to support the Rockets, but if you're going to 0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:39.440 go to a bowl game, that would be a very 0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:42.160 good one to go to, my man, a very good one. 0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:46.000 So I would love to join the Toledo Rockets down there. 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:48.280 I'm gonna give Coach Candle a shout see if he 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:50.080 can hook something up for your boy to get me 0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:52.280 down in the Bahamas and lot Nui. I didn't know, 0:14:52.480 --> 0:14:54.720 but the Rockets were seven and five this year. You know, 0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:57.880 I thought we barely made it Bowl eligible wise, but hey, 0:14:57.880 --> 0:14:59.840 if we were a game above it seven to five. Man, 0:15:00.680 --> 0:15:03.240 here's one thing that I will say for the Mac teams. 0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:06.200 They're lucky because most of the bowl games they get 0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:09.280 to go to are are outside the Midwest most of 0:15:09.320 --> 0:15:12.280 the time. Yeah, man, yeah, I feel sorry for some 0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:14.360 of these Texas teams. Man, you sit up here, you 0:15:14.400 --> 0:15:15.760 get to go to bowl game, and they go roll 0:15:15.800 --> 0:15:18.960 you right down the road, like what waiting We're going 0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:23.160 to San Antonio. We're going to prison real quick. Yeah yeah, 0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:25.200 I mean I would be hot like he man, all 0:15:25.280 --> 0:15:27.920 year long, you're waiting on this nice bowl game and 0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:30.200 they gonna send you and you're staying in the state 0:15:30.200 --> 0:15:31.840 of Texas, you know, not even get to go to 0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:34.120 New Orleans, you know, I mean you do not want 0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:36.600 you that. That would frustrate outside of the Cotton Bowl, 0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:38.320 because the Cotton Bowl is a great game, and that's 0:15:38.640 --> 0:15:40.560 that's one of the big that's one of the big bowls. 0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:42.800 But yeah, man, if you're just a Texas team like 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:45.320 UT San Antonio, Man, you want to go to California, 0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:46.680 you want to go somewhere, and then you look up 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.160 and see, man, Toledo gets to go to the Bahamas Bowl, 0:15:49.240 --> 0:15:52.760 I'd be swoven, you a lying, I'd be solid exact 0:15:52.840 --> 0:15:55.800 Like if I'm not in the College Football Playoff, Like 0:15:55.840 --> 0:15:57.680 if I'm not one of the four teams in there, 0:15:57.680 --> 0:15:59.560 and I gotta do one of these other bowls. Take 0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:02.280 me to the Mohamma's Bowl. They'd be somewhere where I can, 0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:04.840 you know, enjoy the week out there. You know. Football, Yeah, 0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:07.280 we're gonna practice a little bit, but outside of football, 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:09.160 we need to lay on the beach somewhere and hang out. 0:16:09.440 --> 0:16:11.520 Not much rather do that than, like you said, go 0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:13.240 ahead and go right down the street, you know, to 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:17.080 the Alamo Bowl or somewhere like that. Man. I it's 0:16:17.120 --> 0:16:20.520 just it's just a bad straw right there, man, bad draw. Yeah. Yeah, 0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:24.320 then I feel sorry for um, for SMU. Man, they 0:16:24.360 --> 0:16:26.680 got to go to Boston. They're going to the Fenway Bowl, 0:16:26.720 --> 0:16:30.480 so they're playing in Fenway Park. It's gonna be cold, cold, 0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:35.080 so hey, you get the leave Texas, but you're going 0:16:35.120 --> 0:16:37.120 up to Boston. Man, it's gonna be cold up in here. 0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:41.320 So yes, yes, your your Toledo Rockets have it really good. 0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:43.280 I mean, look, if you're not in the Sugar Bowl, 0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:47.040 the Rose Bowl, Cotton Bowl, Orange Bowl, Bahama's Bowl, is 0:16:47.080 --> 0:16:49.680 a heck of a consolation. Man. Now that you can 0:16:49.720 --> 0:16:51.880 go recruit with you're out there, man, you can recruit 0:16:51.920 --> 0:16:54.520 with that without a doubt. And also you can you 0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:57.520 bring your clubs do a little golfing down there. So, hey, Toledo, 0:16:57.680 --> 0:17:01.520 if you're listening, man, hook your boy up, hooky boy up. Man, 0:17:01.560 --> 0:17:04.000 I'll be on the sound. I'll do whatever whatever you need, 0:17:04.080 --> 0:17:06.760 quality control, whatever you need. I'm there a man. Just 0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:09.719 you know, send a ticket for your boy. Meanwhile, Danny's 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:12.159 LSU Tigers are gonna go take on k State in 0:17:12.240 --> 0:17:15.800 Houston at the Texas Bowl. I don't think I don't 0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:18.320 think that's what the LSU kids thought was gonna happen. 0:17:18.359 --> 0:17:19.879 It's the start of the year. They're gonna go just 0:17:20.000 --> 0:17:21.680 right down the road to go a couple of hours 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:24.600 out of Houston for a bowl game. But yeah, that's 0:17:24.640 --> 0:17:27.080 gonna be a family, family and friends bowl right there 0:17:27.160 --> 0:17:30.200 where all you see in the stands is just you know, family, 0:17:30.240 --> 0:17:32.520 the immediate family, and some friends. Man. That's that's all 0:17:32.520 --> 0:17:35.800 that's gonna be right there. Now, all right, let's dive 0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:39.560 back into some cowboy defensive questions as they get ready 0:17:39.560 --> 0:17:44.639 to face Washington in their key game on Sunday. And look, 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:48.000 I'm a huge fan of Michael Parsons. I think you 0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:50.520 and I were both there at first just wondering Okay, 0:17:50.520 --> 0:17:53.320 hey man, you drive have to had the corner, but 0:17:53.680 --> 0:17:55.840 you took the next best defensive player that was one 0:17:55.840 --> 0:17:57.879 of the top three guys we kind of focused on 0:17:57.920 --> 0:18:01.840 were Sir Patrick Surtan of Alabama, jac Horne, South Carolina, 0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:03.560 and then it was Michael Parsons. But we were all 0:18:03.600 --> 0:18:06.479 about a defensive player. Our guy, Danny McCrae was all 0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:10.920 about offensive tackle. So Mica has turned out to be 0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:13.679 a sensational pick at twelve. He is going to win 0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:17.640 the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year. Now with Tank 0:18:17.720 --> 0:18:21.000 Lawrence coming back at one defensive end spot Randy Gregory 0:18:21.040 --> 0:18:23.520 at the other, I say you put him back at linebacker. 0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:26.119 But the beauty of what dan Quinn is going to 0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:27.760 be able to do is he'll be able to dial 0:18:27.840 --> 0:18:29.720 up pressure any kind of way he wants. So he 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:31.560 can have him play some bass, he can have him 0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:34.120 line up over the center. I mean, he can bring 0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:36.560 him so many different places, man, that I just think, 0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:40.560 I think we're about to see Michael Parsons go next 0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:44.560 level if we see and think we can get Randy 0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:47.080 Gregory playing like he had before he got injured, Tank 0:18:47.200 --> 0:18:49.320 Lawrence doing what he's been able to do when healthy 0:18:49.359 --> 0:18:52.280 in his career, and Neville Gallimor taking another step in 0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:55.480 his second year. I think this can free up Michael 0:18:55.480 --> 0:18:59.800 Parsons and do some damage. Yeah, you're right about that, man. 0:18:59.840 --> 0:19:02.000 I'm agreeing with which because this will be the first 0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:04.800 time really that dan Quinn will be able to use 0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:07.760 him as like a defensive weapon, you know, a physician list, 0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:10.680 just defensive weapon out there, because you got the guys 0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:12.680 on the outside. Let's just say tank. You know he's 0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:14.840 coming back strong. He came back in that Saints game 0:19:15.160 --> 0:19:17.200 and played pretty well at nine PM. Let's say that 0:19:17.560 --> 0:19:20.200 Gregory does the same thing when he comes back. You 0:19:20.320 --> 0:19:22.520 have your two bookends on the outside. So you could, 0:19:22.560 --> 0:19:24.880 like you said, you can play with Michael Parsons alignment. 0:19:24.920 --> 0:19:26.680 You can blitz him up the center, you can have 0:19:26.800 --> 0:19:29.399 him attack the wink link of the offensive line. But 0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:31.919 you could have him everywhere and pretty much use him 0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:34.240 as a defensive weapon. I mean, when we first started 0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:36.480 talking about this guy, I thought, all right, you know 0:19:36.600 --> 0:19:38.400
