00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,880

15
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: if we're being honest. There's a lot of things to

16
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: hit on whenever it comes to the twenty five to

17
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 1: three loss to the Seattle Seahawks, not to the Cleveland

18
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: Browns or the Pittsburgh Steelers or the Baltimore Ravens. The

19
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: twenty five to three loss was to the Washington football

20
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: team on the road in an NFC East divisional battle.

21
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:35,759
Speaker 1: But yes, we are going to talk about it. We're

22
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: gonna talk through what exactly went wrong and where do

23
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 1: they go from here in terms of this Dallas Cowboys

24
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: football team that now sits at two and five. Glad

25
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: you're with us. And I was told whenever I walked

26
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: into the studio that Isaiah stand Back wanted the floor.

27
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: And I love Isaiah and I've always been a big

28
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: fan of his and of course getting to work with you,

29
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: I've I've learned a lot about you and this is

30
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: one of those days where I'm excited to give you

31
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: the floor because of your pedigree as an announcer and

32
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,639
Speaker 1: as a as a media member. Now, but Isaiah, what

33
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: were your initial thoughts over the game? And goodness, where

34
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: do we start? Well? For those that are watching, can

35
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: you see my face? Oh? Yeah? For those that kid,

36
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: for those are just listening, I wish y'all could see

37
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 1: my face. Listen up, man, I know it's not Friday,

38
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: but we're gonna say with our chest today this was

39
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: absolutely terrible. With a cherry on top. We lost to

40
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: a team that doesn't even have a name, um called

41
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,639
Speaker 1: the football team. We lost a football team that just

42
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: happened to play out of Washington. Uh, these guys came

43
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: in or we went there to go to go score

44
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: three points. We went there to get disrespected. We went

45
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: there to let our quarterback get knocked out. Night night

46
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: is what we called it in the league. He went

47
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 1: night night okay, And everybody just came over and touched

48
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 1: the mind his shoulder and said are you okay? Are

49
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: you okay? With no response. We've talked about it in

50
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,519
Speaker 1: the past, we referred to it. I can't tell you

51
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: how many times about how we say, you know what,

52
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: we don't want to say there's a lack of heart.

53
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: We don't want to say there's a lack of effort.

54
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: We don't want to say that they don't have each

55
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 1: other's back, that they're not even that they're that they

56
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: are they're brothers keeper. But guess what, they've proved us wrong.

57
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: They proved us wrong. Right. We've been trying to have

58
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: the back. Can't have it back like a jam sport.

59
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: No more, can't do it, no more, can't do it

60
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 1: no more. We're here to tell the truth, and we're

61
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: gonna tell the truth all day to day. I'm disappointed.

62
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: I am. I am hurt by that showing yesterday. Rob.

63
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: Do you feel the same way. I don't know if

64
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: we've got robbed heck Man, Yeah, what happened to Rob?

65
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: But of course I feel the same way. No way,

66
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: no way that I back for our team to go

67
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: to Washington and play as lifeless as they did, and

68
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: you know, it's really uninspired. And man, we talked about

69
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: it before we started the show. You know that we

70
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: have no positive illusions to sell today because when you

71
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: have a team that goes out and plays that lifeless

72
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,479
Speaker 1: and you have a situation where your quarterback is completely

73
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 1: taken out. Bostick, he may be a good guy, but

74
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: that was a sucker move, man, that's horrible. You don't

75
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: and they talk, you talk about the fraternity of NFL

76
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 1: players and guys not doing that, and we we just

77
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 1: pretty much raped Tristan Hill over the colds for the

78
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: Gator roll. What do you do to Bostick for that?

79
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 1: Because that was that was a sucker move, but even

80
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: more for not one soul on our team to respond

81
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 1: to what he did to me Is, man, That's that's

82
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: the that's the part about it. Uh. And Isaiah, I

83
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: gotta give you, I gotta give you credit when you say, hey,

84
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: these guys are not hanging out together, and obviously because

85
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: of the COVID nineteen stipulations and all of that, they

86
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 1: really can't. But that's just that's just a lack of

87
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: heart for your own guy. We laughed about it about

88
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: Kyle yos Is saying that, look, we know he's an

89
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: Olympic civil medalist and calling nine one one. But Kyle

90
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: would have did something in a situation like that, man.

91
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I've never called nine one one in my life,

92
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 1: but I even in that moment, would have turned around

93
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: and I would have. I would have known. And I

94
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: made the joke before the show. I was like, if

95
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 1: if any one of y'all were messed with and you

96
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: guys are our podcast buddies, We're not going out and

97
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: fighting other two hundred and eighty pound grown men. You

98
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: guys and I talked football, But if somebody were to

99
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 1: messed with you guys, I would have I would take

100
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 1: exception to it, especially to the point where they would

101
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: knock you out. Oh yeah, no, it's going down but

102
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: I think we have rob back here. But I completely

103
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: agree with you. Hackmakled check me out. I know we

104
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 1: got CB back. There can't nobody sec He's back to

105
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: our producer. But listen up, CBE likes to play Call

106
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: of Duty right, lets to play a little look c D.

107
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: If somebody takes out Kyle on a video game, it

108
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: takes out you know, Chris a video game. I am

109
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: coming for their head. I'm coming for the head. You

110
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: got to worry about me the whole game. I don't care.

111
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: I'm fragging you, I'm throwing grenades. I'm coming after you

112
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: all day long. You gotta worry about me because guess

113
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: what you just did. You just got my dog and

114
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: it ain't going down like that. Remind me not to

115
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 1: play any Call of Duty with you, Isaiah, because I

116
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 1: feel like you're just gonna get us caught. Yeah, I'm

117
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: coming for it you rest of the game, coming for

118
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: the rest of the game. But outside of the frustration

119
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: with the Dalton head, and that absolutely needs to be

120
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: talked about and addressed. And I assume that there's probably

121
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 1: gonna be a fine coming down, But heck, where do

122
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 1: you start from? A an exs and o standpoint because

123
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,719
Speaker 1: right now there's a lot of going on wrong with

124
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 1: this team offensively, defensively. I think it starts in the trenches.

125
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 1: But I want to see where you lie. Well, look

126
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 1: the mirages. The mirage is over. I think you really

127
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: see that guys are just they don't have the talent

128
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: to get it done. And you hear coach Mike McCarthy

129
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: talking about going back to basics. To me, that's this

130
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: code word for you know, I have some incompetent guys,

131
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 1: and it's hard for me to believe that guys are

132
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: incompetent that have played in this league for a while.

133
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: Our offensive line manage, we talked about it. The defensive

134
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 1: line for the Washington football team was going to come

135
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: after Andy Dalton and they did six sacks, a couple

136
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: of strip sacks also, I mean they were all over him.

137
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: But we couldn't establish anything. And that's the one thing

138
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: about it that really is frustrated. Where do I mean, Kyle,

139
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: you ask me from an excent old standpoint, where do

140
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: you start with that when you're not getting anything that

141
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: you can at least hang your hat on to say

142
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: we established the run, well, established the past, We'll establish

143
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: our run defense, we'll establish our pass defense. We have

144
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: none of that. So I mean maybe we should go

145
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: to Rob. Rob can tell us because I have no

146
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: answer for what I saw yesterday. No sorry, guys, I

147
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: got knocked off there. They have nothing that they can

148
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: lean on right now. And you said it on offense.

149
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 1: They can't run it, they can't throw it, they can't

150
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: sustain drives, and they have to be able to do

151
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: that because right now that's their only chance. Defensively, nothing

152
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: really has improved tangibly since the start of the season,

153
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: and until they get that fixed. And at nine games in,

154
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, seven games in, with nine to go, you

155
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: wonder how much better it's going to get. But they

156
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: don't have anything offensively they can get to despite the

157
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 1: fact they're missing their quarterback. It's the offensive line, it's

158
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 1: really everything. And then you throw on top of what

159
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: you guys just talked about. Injuries are one thing. Injuries happen.

160
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: Injuries don't have to define your season. They're not defining

161
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles season right now. They're in first place

162
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: right now. They're not a great football team, but you

163
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: watch what they're able to do, fight back, stay in games,

164
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: Carson wentz. It helps having your quarterback, but they're they're

165
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 1: an example of a team that is still out there fighting.

166
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: And it's not just us saying it, it's the player

167
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 1: saying it. DeMarcus Lawrence said it after the game. We

168
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: need more fight, we need more belief. That's coming from

169
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 1: the players. It's not just us, uh saying that based

170
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: on what we see on the field. And until that changes, um,

171
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 1: this is this is going to continue. There's only three

172
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:27,319
Speaker 1: losing teams, only three winning teams left on their schedule.

173
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: But you know, based on what we've seen, guys, that

174
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. You know, if you you you come out

175
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: and you play and you you fail to execute the

176
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 1: way they've done consistently in games, there's gonna be more

177
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 1: of the games like this. It's just going to continue

178
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: for the rest of the season if they don't get

179
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: it cleaned up. Hey, Rob, you and you mentioned man,

180
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: I know it. Cole might have this on his list.

181
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: I gotta do my chest. Everybody's up here making excuses

182
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 1: time about oh, you know, Dak is the leader of

183
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: this team, and Dak is our guy. And guess what,

184
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 1: absolutely correct, Dak is your guy, no question about it.

185
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,199
Speaker 1: No replacement is going to is going to do exactly

186
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:00,959
Speaker 1: what he did. I have been the first one to

187
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: stand up here and say Andy Dalton is a dude

188
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 1: and he should have no problems stepping in and for

189
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 1: filling a roll. I still believe that because everybody wants

190
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: to put the blame on Andy Dalton yesterday, right even

191
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: before he got knocked out. This is not an Andy

192
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:13,719
Speaker 1: Dalton thing. I don't care what quarterback you would have

193
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: put in that game yesterday, they would have got destroyed.

194
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: And yes, dak Mann, it might have avoided a couple

195
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: more plays and got out there and throw the ball

196
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 1: out of the pocket a couple more times. Andy Dalton

197
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: was nine for nineteen before we getting knocked out, nine

198
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 1: for nineteen, and here was five drops from one player,

199
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,599
Speaker 1: and I think there's another drop of somebody else. So

200
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: had those guys come count those balls, Andy Dalton would

201
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: have been fifteen of nineteen, fifteen of nineteen. So don't

202
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: make this an Andy Dalton thing, right. This was all

203
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: around just terrible performance across the board. And for people

204
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: that want to make excuses about the quarback player, I

205
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: don't care if there's any Dalton, I don't care IF's Denucci.

206
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: I don't care if there's a dog gone, Rob Phillips

207
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 1: get in there. You take some snaps too. These guys

208
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: were ineffective in every aspect of the game. If we

209
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: dropped back and throw the ball, guess what. When we

210
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: did throw the ball, they were dropped. When we did

211
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: run the ball, we got stuck. When we did get

212
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: a rush, guess what they took off. When they did

213
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: play a little bit of coverage, guess what they got

214
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,079
Speaker 1: the ball off. It didn't matter what happened. We were

215
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: getting got in every aspect of this game, and we

216
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: kept doing the same things that we know that we

217
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: have been ineffective doing all year long. Offensive line couldn't block,

218
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,319
Speaker 1: defensive line couldn't get a push. Secondary still trying to

219
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: somehow play man to man versus number one receivers. That

220
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,079
Speaker 1: didn't work out too well. We keep doing the same things.

221
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 1: The definition of insanity is what doing the same thing

222
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: over and over again and expecting different results. That's what

223
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: these guys are doing. I don't know what their culture

224
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 1: or this team is. What is the culture and who's

225
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: the stem from. Let's let's not just sit up here

226
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: and say dak is the Heart and Solder team. And

227
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: now that Dad's gone, Oh man, you know one of

228
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: our guys is gone. We can't you know the rest

229
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 1: of these grown man who get paid to do a

230
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 1: job can't show up and do what they're supposed to do.

231
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: That's bs as an excuse. These twos need to wake

232
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: up and go plus the dog on ball. But Isaiah,

233
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: here's the thing too. Do you think they got on

234
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 1: the plane and flew all the way to DC to

235
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 1: get a butt whooping. It's no, they can't sell that.

236
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: They got it. They got it, they got it, But

237
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 1: there's a desired result of result. Anytime you line up

238
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: to play a football game and whatever's translating, and you

239
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: hear coaches say, oh, we had a great week of preparation.

240
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: Practice was lively. How is that not translating to the

241
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 1: football field. I'm not arguing with you. I'm just saying,

242
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 1: how does that piece not translate to play on the field.

243
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: When guys get into a situation like that first drive

244
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: from Washington, it was like, oh my god, here's a

245
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: team where they're saying they're giving you the numbers next

246
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: to lasting, Russian lasting and points per game, all of

247
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 1: these things they hadn't scored on an opening drive, and

248
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 1: here they are knocking on the door to score, and

249
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: it's just because they're in there. They're lifeless and they

250
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: had nothing even on offense. But we made them look

251
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: better than what they are. And I just don't get

252
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 1: where where's the disconnected, where's the discon this team whether

253
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 1: not taking this to the culture. What's the culture? What's

254
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: the culture? We talked about it yesterday, Kyle on the

255
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: pregame show. Right on the pregame show, we said, Hey,

256
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: this dog on quarterback right Alan, you guys are either

257
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: gonna make him look like he's just a dude, like

258
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: Nate talked to him and talked about yesterday. He's either

259
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: gonna look like just a guy or guess what, he's

260
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: one of the thirty two best quarterbacks in the world

261
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 1: right now, that's an NFL quarterback. NFL quarterbacks one of

262
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: the best in the world. So he's either gonna look

263
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:27,959
Speaker 1: like a dude. We can make him look like that,

264
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:29,319
Speaker 1: or we can make him look like he's one of

265
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: the best thirty two guys in the world. And guess

266
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: what we did yesterday. We made him look like he's

267
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: one of the best in the world. Okay, you can't

268
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,359
Speaker 1: disrespect the fact that everybody in this league as a professional.

269
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: They could either have a switch off and they could

270
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 1: just play like like I'm just here. I'm showing up

271
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 1: to do my job and get my check like some

272
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 1: people may be doing this year. Or you can show

273
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: up and say, guess what, I'm gonna get the same check,

274
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: regardless about ball out or not. But guess what, I

275
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 1: have pride about what I do, and I'm gonna show

276
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 1: up and knock somebody in the dog our mouth. Also

277
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: not to mention, what would I go for it? Rob? Well,

278
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,679
Speaker 1: just sorry, Kyle. When I just watching this team, and

279
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: I think it's been referenced at points in the season

280
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 1: by members of the front office or the team itself,

281
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 1: I just don't see a team that's playing with any confidence,

282
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: very very little confidence. And it's almost like it's almost

283
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 1: like they're waiting for the next bad thing to happen,

284
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 1: you know. And we've heard them talk about adversity and

285
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 1: handling adversity. They've had plenty of adversity. Everybody has been

286
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 1: in the same boat in terms of no offseason. But

287
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 1: these injuries are a problem. There's no question it's limiting

288
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: what they can do. But how do you respond to that.

289
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: You know, they're not responding to bad things that happen

290
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: within games. And I think a perfect example is in

291
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: Isaiah and I talked about this at halftime at the Star,

292
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: right before the end of the half. They have a

293
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: good drive. They're putting a drive together. It's kind of

294
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: dink and dunk and they're using the running backs in

295
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: the flat, but they're making things happen. Washington is playing

296
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 1: their safeties back. They're playing kind of a too deep look,

297
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 1: and it's almost like they're forcing the Cowboys to continue

298
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: kind of this nickel and dime drive, waiting for them

299
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: to make a mistake. And you know what they did.

300
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: And that's been the story of this season. When something

301
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: can go wrong, it will go wrong. And when you're

302
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 1: not playing confidently. Mike McCarthy spoke to this after the game.

303
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: We're not cutting it loose, and basically, there's a fear

304
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: of making a mistake. If you're not playing fast and

305
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: you're not playing confidently, you're not going to have results

306
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: in this league. Because guess what, Isaiah can speak to

307
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: this better than anybody on the show. There is not

308
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: much difference between the best team in the league and

309
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: the worst team in the league since there became a

310
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 1: salary cap era in this league, it does. The records

311
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 1: do not matter. If you come into a game and

312
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: you do not show up and execute, you're gonna get beat.

313
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 1: And if you got if you got weaknesses on your

314
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: roster because of injuries, they're gonna go after them and

315
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: you better have an answer for it. And they just

316
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 1: have not had an answer for the adversity they have

317
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 1: faced within games and the seasons where they've really struggled

318
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen. Chris mentioned it before the show started. That

319
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: was the issue things went south. Didn't have your quarterback,

320
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: how do you respond? Didn't respond well enough? You went

321
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 1: for wealth. And I think you also look at it

322
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: from a standpoint of the only time that they have

323
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 1: let it loose, like all year long, throughout the seven

324
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 1: weeks that we've seen from this Cowboys team, the only

325
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: time that I think they've really let it loose and

326
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 1: played their game and not let an opponent dictate what

327
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: they're doing is probably whenever they were down by twenty

328
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: plus points and they had nothing else to lose, And

329
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: that was whenever you saw the comeback against Atlanta, and

330
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: you saw the game after I guess Dak Prescott got

331
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: hurt against New York and you finally were able to

332
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: kind of play your game. Those are the only times

333
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: that you can really point to this Cowboys team and

334
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: say they played with confidence. And it was not necessarily confidence.

335
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: It was more like desperation. And that's where it seems

336
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: like we are as a Cowboys team right now. It's pride.

337
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: It's pride, and you bring up a great point. Those

338
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: are the two references that I would touched on as well.

339
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: But it's pride. We keep using a term confidence. It

340
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: is a sense of pride in how you take your

341
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: approach to the game. I'm not going to allow somebody

342
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 1: to keep punching me in the mouth. If you guys,

343
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: walk on the sidewalk right now, somebody comes up and

344
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,439
Speaker 1: pushes you, all right, they push me. I'm gonna let

345
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 1: them have that one right to push you again. At

346
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,880
Speaker 1: a certain point, You're gonna snap, right at a certain point.

347
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: Everybody has different boiling on levels, right, but you're not

348
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: going to continue to allow somebody to keep pushing you. Right.

349
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 1: So that's what this That's what they were doing against Atlanta.

350
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 1: Guess what. They kept getting punched in the mouth and

351
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: they got for a certain point, they said, man, forget this,

352
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: let's go right and they showed up and it came

353
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 1: back and they fired off and they went down the field.

354
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 1: It had nothing. It had Obviously Dak was there, But

355
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 1: Dad has nothing to do with the determination and the

356
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: pride that each one of those other men have that

357
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 1: comes from internal. That is internal. That is a decision.

358
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: You show up the player, you show up not to play.

359
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: You decide to get beat on one player, decide not

360
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 1: to get beat on one play. After a certain point,

361
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 1: you have to decide that this is not gonna be okay.

362
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 1: And right now, and when I keep bringing up the

363
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: word culture, and we've talked about this in previous weeks, right,

364
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: we talked about this, What is the culture of this team?

365
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: When you face the Dallas Cowboys, what do you expect

366
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 1: to face? Right? Are you gonna walk out of the

367
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: beat up in brewe Are you gonna have to fight

368
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: a play a team that's not gonna give up? Right?

369
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: Are you gonna play a team that you know it

370
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: at some point in time, they're gonna they're gonna quit.

371
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 1: Right now, every team faces us, they know this team's

372
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,360
Speaker 1: gonna quit at some point in the game. And are

373
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: you facing a team like specifically, are you facing a

374
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 1: defense that trusts each other, that trust each other to

375
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,919
Speaker 1: make the right play and do their individual jobs to

376
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: make a collective like that. That's that's been the thing.

377
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 1: And you know, I know there's a lot of criticism

378
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: on Mike Nolan, and there's a lot of people out

379
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: there that want to change a defensive coordinator. But we

380
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: talked about this last week. The same stuff we've been

381
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 1: talking about defensively is the same stuff we heard last year, freelancing,

382
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: not trusting each other, not being an assignment sharp and

383
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 1: so coaching matters obviously, but it only goes so far.

384
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 1: And I know Lady Vandrea said after the game it's

385
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 1: not the scheme, Well, then it's got to be the

386
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 1: better execution together right together, And he caught it out right.

387
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 1: We talked about it last week, Hey, right, we talked

388
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: about how these are high school coverages, these are high coverages,

389
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 1: and Mike Nolan finally got tired of meat and like

390
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: I said, it's that dog on bottle that that that's

391
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: shaking up a dog on popcam right, or a bottle

392
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: a little bit comes out right. We heard Griffin talking

393
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 1: about it the first time, right about four weeks ago,

394
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: when I said, hey, well, he said, I'm not I'm not.

395
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 1: I'm a hand in the ground guy. Who woa WHOA.

396
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: We don't, we don't, we don't. You're not allowed to

397
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 1: say that. That's not something that you say when you're

398
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: on a team. Right, And we said we heard a

399
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 1: little bit, we heard it. We heard that a little

400
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 1: air get out right, and then we heard what then

401
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, be car all of a sudden

402
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: just gets released because he spoke up in in one

403
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,399
Speaker 1: of the team meeting rooms. That's the rumor, right, and

404
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 1: he gets let go okay, okay, and then what oh,

405
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: now we have an anonymous insider for the teams talking

406
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: about the coaches. Oh it was you, it was you know.

407
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: You turn a bottle cap, you turn the bottom cap,

408
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 1: you let a little bit more out right. And then

409
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 1: finally coach Nolan's like, the heck with this, They're not

410
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 1: gonna keep blaming me. What are he's saying in a

411
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,640
Speaker 1: in an interview the other day on Friday or a Saturday,

412
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:53,159
Speaker 1: what do you say we're running high school defenses. Oh

413
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: crack now, the coach on let it this this dog

414
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: on bottle cat about to come off, And that's exactly

415
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 1: what's going down. Man. These dudes are making excuses. Yeah,

416
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: And we talked about it in our own group message

417
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: yesterday when the video of Andy Dalton getting angry at

418
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 1: his offensive line on the sideline came out. Whenever Andy

419
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: Dalton was getting upset and getting red in the face

420
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 1: as red as he is hairwise, then that's whenever you

421
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 1: have some issues as in terms of anger and frustration

422
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 1: on that sideline, and in that I love to see it.

423
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 1: I did too. I like it. I like a little fire.

424
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,439
Speaker 1: But at the same time, like you said, it's the

425
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,199
Speaker 1: bottle cap. Somebody, if that's gonna end up happening, and

426
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: if the bottle CAP's gonna gonna explode at some point

427
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 1: pretty soon, or if it already has exploded, we don't

428
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: know what happened in that locker room. When we come back,

429
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 1: where do we make changes? Where are the changes made?

430

470
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,400
Speaker 1: more guys. We were talking about it during the break,

471
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,159
Speaker 1: and it just comes to a point when you just

472
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 1: you just may not be good. And I feel like

473
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: that's the most frustrating part about this lost yesterday is

474
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 1: because even going into it, we had all had hope.

475
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 1: We had all had that kind of hope that it's, oh,

476
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: it's the division that's bad. We've had some injuries, we've

477
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,879
Speaker 1: had this, we've had that. You lose twenty five to

478
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: three to a team that one had the worst rushing

479
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: offense in the entire NFL and they go off and

480
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: they rush for over two hundred yards against you. Two,

481
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: a team that had lost five games in a row

482
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 1: and they beat you by twenty two points. And then three,

483
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,360
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen, a quarterback who had lost his last eight starts,

484
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 1: he comes out and shushes you in the cammera or

485
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: flashes up a first down whatever that finger was for

486
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: on the first down. He was taunting. Yeah, he was

487
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 1: taunting the camera. Whenever a guy who's lost his last

488
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 1: eight games as a starting quarterback in the NFL starts

489
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: taunting you on camera, that's when you've got an issue. Well,

490
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 1: that's all what happened yesterday. Glad you're with us. You're

491
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 1: I'm talking cowboys, Rob Phillips, Isaiah Standback, Hecka Harris, and

492
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 1: I'm Kyle Yeoman's glad you're sticking with us. You're a

493
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 1: die hard fan at this point, and we love you

494
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: for it. Not gonna lie. We love talking with you guys,

495
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 1: and we're just as angry as you are as cowboys. Yeah,

496
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: we're just as just as angry as you guys are.

497
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 1: But i'd tease the question before the break and whenever

498
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,199
Speaker 1: he comes to this loss, where do the changes need

499
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,399
Speaker 1: to be made? We can talk about pride, we can

500
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: talk about coaching, we can talk about scheme all we want,

501
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: but ultimately it comes down to the players executing. And heckma,

502
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,360
Speaker 1: they haven't executed. So where do we start in terms

503
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: of making some changes? I mean, you gotta start with

504
00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,040
Speaker 1: your front line. Your defensive line is just not the

505
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 1: guys that you signed that you thought were going to

506
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: be players for you. Uh, it's just not there. And

507
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 1: even you have to look at your linebackers too. I mean,

508
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,880
Speaker 1: this it's not it's not even uh a strategy anymore

509
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 1: to leave Jalen one on one out in the flat

510
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: with a tight end or a running back. It's just

511
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 1: it's just you gotta stop right uh. Safeties, safeties. You know,

512
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,479
Speaker 1: we've talked about this at length. The state the safety

513
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 1: we just don't have it at all. But I tell

514
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: you it was important the game yesterday, guys where I

515
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,680
Speaker 1: saw my my, my rookie corner. He got upset with

516
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: Terry McLoughlin man a couple of punches being thrown out there.

517
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, that's I like that. I like that

518
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 1: rook I like you showing that emotion. And then Terry

519
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 1: McLoughlin just drag racist. He gone for a was it

520
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: fifty two? Fifty six yard? And I don't you keep

521
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 1: going over the scheme. You keep going over why guys

522
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 1: are playing, you know, or they thinking too much. We're

523
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: just not getting that push up front. And Kyle Allen

524
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 1: yesterday was just able to comfortably step up in the

525
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,119
Speaker 1: pocket and make some throws and when he needed to

526
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 1: make a play with his leg he was making plays

527
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,440
Speaker 1: with his legs. Look offensive line wise, we can beat

528
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: these guys down, but this is not the group that

529
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 1: you anticipated you were going to have through the season.

530
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 1: We're down to third stream guys. Right. And if I

531
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 1: had told you before the season that this Sunday night,

532
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 1: Benda Nucci would be your starting quarterback, There's no way.

533
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 1: There's no way. That's the most twenty twenty thing to

534
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,400
Speaker 1: ever happen, is that Bend de Nucci is gonna start

535
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: this Sunday. So I mean, you just you just I

536
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 1: don't know, Man, Penateller the donkey pick a spot wherever

537
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 1: you want to go on the defense. But you could

538
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: just pick whatever you want, all right, as far as

539
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: what we need, and that's where it needs to go. Man,

540
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 1: our defense is just at this point as a laughing stock. Rob.

541
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: I feel like fans want a major change, right, They

542
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 1: want something to kind of shake the foundation, and a

543
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 1: lot of people want to change a defensive coordinator. Mike

544
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,159
Speaker 1: McCarthy has basically said he's not going to do that.

545
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: He said it has even crossed my mind to do that.

546
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,639
Speaker 1: That's my curiosity is is that something that would actually,

547
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: you know, shake things up and change a message and

548
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 1: serve as a wake up call for everybody or not?

549
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: Because I think he talks about staying the course, and

550
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: based on what we've seen for seven games now, yes,

551
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 1: something about the message from the coaching staff is not

552
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 1: getting through. But these are assignments that are missed and

553
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,959
Speaker 1: execution that is missed. And you know, like Heck mentioned

554
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: that the Treyvon Digs play, Look, he's not coached to

555
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 1: do that, to keep his eyes in the backfield on

556
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 1: the quarterback and not on a go route from the

557
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 1: from the by far the best receiving threat they have downfield,

558
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 1: you know, And so short of short of with the

559
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: trade deadline coming up and making a big move to

560
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: try to get somebody to help on your interior defensive line,

561
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what's really gonna change because there are

562
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: so and I said this last week, there are so

563
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 1: many things defensively that they've got holes to plug that

564
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 1: I don't know if one player makes a difference. And

565
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,160
Speaker 1: I'm certainly not gonna screw up my salary cap um

566
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 1: based on the way things are going right now, and

567
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: saying one player is gonna make a big difference for

568
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 1: me isah um Jesus Um called his name. Yeah him,

569
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: listen up here, um. In terms of changes, okay, it's

570
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,719
Speaker 1: not the decordinator. It's not the decordina. Your decordinator can

571
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: call the best schemes in the world. But guess why

572
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: players have to execute them. Um, it's not solely that.

573
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: Let me say that, I don't want to take full um.

574
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 1: I don't good point sponsibility off of his of him,

575
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 1: so it's not fully him. These these players, man um.

576
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: This is the reason why it makes as a former player.

577
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 1: It makes it these guys the way they're playing on this,

578
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: on this defensive front, in other positions as well, but

579
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: especially the defensive front. This is why owners, ownership general

580
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 1: managers hate guaranteed contracts. This is why they hate it.

581
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: They are making this is they're making players look terrible

582
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: and making an art case harder for guys that are

583
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 1: trying to go out and get guaranteed money. For this

584
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 1: exact reason. You can't get rid of Pole. I hear

585
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 1: everybody talking. I'll see you get everybody right now talking.

586
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 1: You can't get rid of Pole, you can't get rid

587
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 1: of Griffin, you can't get rid of any of these

588
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 1: veterans that you brought in. You know why, because after

589
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: the first week of the season, they're seeing their salaries

590
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: are gay around ted. They're going to get their money,

591
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 1: all right. So now that you have these guys and

592
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 1: they're going to get their money. Guess what they get

593
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 1: paid the same amount, whether they play hard, whether they're

594
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: effective or not, the check is the same. So when

595
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: you guys, so when you guys hear me talk about

596
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 1: guys are out there collecting a check, Guys are out there.

597
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 1: Literally there goes a million dollars right there. I'm gonna

598
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 1: go back to the house. I didn't get hurt. We're good.

599
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: This is a this is an evaluating league. And if

600
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 1: guys put in that tape out where they're not trying

601
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 1: at all, that's you're not doing nothing but messing up

602
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: for your future. And if this is this is the

603
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: last this is a last stop for you, then this

604
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 1: is a last stop for you. But all I'm saying

605
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 1: is if you don't have if they could talk that

606
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: scheme stuff, all they want to losing, contain what team

607
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 1: have we stopped from getting around the outside? I will wait,

608
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: we have teams. So just I mean, we made Scott

609
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: Turner look like the next boy genius. He may get

610
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: a head coaching job based off of what he was

611
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 1: able to do yesterday and probably not. But still, how

612
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 1: do we come into every week where offensive coordinators are

613
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 1: able to just have their full catalog of plays that

614
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 1: they want and that's what they're doing versus So, look,

615
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 1: these guys that you're saying that are guaranteed contracts, they're

616
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: gonna get paid tomorrow morning, whether the sun rises or not.

617
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 1: That's on nim. And if you don't have that pride

618
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 1: in yourself, if you can't take that as a man

619
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 1: and say, this is my job, this is how I

620
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 1: feed my family to do this, and you're put in

621
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 1: that bas tape out there, then dog, you don't have

622
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: no hard man. And again and I repeat, this is

623
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: the reason why ownership tends to not to go with

624
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 1: veterans because you have to pay veterans guarantee money. And

625
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 1: guess what, veterans aren't worried about the future. Heck, most

626
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: most veterans are at this point in their career. They're

627
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: not worried about the future. They're worried about that check. Right,

628
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 1: So you've got some guys that are gonna have pride.

629
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 1: We keep using the I keep using that term today.

630
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 1: You either have the pride to show up and play

631
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: because you're getting the same check regardless. So pride is

632
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 1: what drives you to be successful in the field, or

633
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: guess what as ownership as general matters as a scouting department,

634
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 1: like we've said in the past, you have to go

635
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 1: get some dogs, whether they're vets or not, most likely

636
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 1: vets that have a drive and a work ethic and

637
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: a tenacious approach to the game at like no other.

638
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: And there are still guys out there that we have

639
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: passed on that will bring that regardless of what their

640
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 1: locker room issues may be, because obviously we got locker

641
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 1: rooms in locker rooms anyway, So bring some duza here

642
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 1: that are gonna give you one thousand percent and that

643
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 1: are gonna demand that of other guys around them. Any

644
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:12,440
Speaker 1: I'm not saying no names, Okay, Yeah, At what point

645
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: do you just kind of lean into the locker room

646
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 1: stuff and be like, well, you know, it is what

647
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 1: it is, shouldn't get any worse. So but yeah, to

648
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: heck much to your point, like the full compliment, the

649
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: full menu of plays that opposing offenses have, it's the

650
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 1: run defense. It's the run defense. And until that changes,

651
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 1: this is gonna be the same story every week. They're

652
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,239
Speaker 1: gonna be on skates because they're gonna be on their

653
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: heels because they can't. They're allowing offenses to dictate whatever

654
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,440
Speaker 1: they want to do offensively and two hundred and eight

655
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: more yards. That that was the issue, Mike Mike McCarthy said,

656
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 1: the gap integrity, the gap control was a little better,

657
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: but the first place set the tone carrying defenders within

658
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: yards after contact. So if it's not one thing, it's

659
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: the other. And until they get that fixed, like White

660
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 1: Isaiah said, with pride, with toughness, more toughness, this is

661
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 1: gonna continue no matter who they're playing, and they're playing

662
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 1: a lot of bad teams coming up below average team

663
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: is based on record, but it's not going to make

664
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 1: any difference, no like the Washington football team. Yeah, I

665
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: was about to say, you're you're looking at I think

666
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: teams are looking at the Cowboys now as an opportunity

667
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: to get back on track now kind of based off

668
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: of what all three of you guys just said, And

669
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 1: you're talking about basically one of two things here, or

670
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 1: I guess one of three things. One is you just

671
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 1: sit pat, which is probably the most likely to happen,

672
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 1: which is extremely frustrating to every Cowboys fan. However, there's

673
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 1: two other options. There's either you cut a player and

674
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: just eat the money, and you just cut your losses

675
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 1: and say we're sending a message. I think that's probably

676
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,240
Speaker 1: the second most likely thing, because the third one is

677
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 1: trade for draft picks. Who's gonna trade a draft pick

678
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 1: for what we've seen on film right now? Nobody's gonna

679
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 1: come in draft picks right now. Draft picks. Also, not

680
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: to mention, there's a lot more problems than one draft

681
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: gonna fix in this football team at the moment. There's

682
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: not gonna be one draft where you're gonna go out there.

683
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 1: We had a fantastic draft as Cowboys Nation in this

684
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 1: past April. We can see what that's turning into. Yeah,

685
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: we've got Ceedee Lamb, treyvon Diggs, Neville Gallimore. Those guys

686
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: are fantastic and they're going to continue to get better

687
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 1: and they'll be game changers at some point. But whenever

688
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: it comes to a draft, even if you have the

689
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: best draft out of the thirty two other NFL teams,

690
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,920
Speaker 1: it's gonna take two or three of those put together

691
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,879
Speaker 1: before you start seeing some success. And the Cowboys haven't

692
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 1: seen success yet because of the fact that you have

693
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 1: so many different holes. It's not gonna take one draft class.

694
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 1: And even if it did, you're not gonna get those

695
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 1: picks from other teams for guys like Dontari Poe. Dontry

696
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 1: Poe couldn't go for twenty bucks in a soda pop

697
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,479
Speaker 1: right now, like that's it wouldn't work at the moment

698
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,800
Speaker 1: in terms of the film that he's put on tape.

699
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:53,320
Speaker 1: It's frustrating. Well, sorry, hey go ahead, No, I go

700
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 1: for it. No, I was just as far as the future,

701
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,239
Speaker 1: As far as the future is concerned, you can't. You

702
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 1: can't trade away your future right now for anything. If

703
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,360
Speaker 1: there was a sign, if we had gone out and

704
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: won that game yesterday, and you see yourself in a

705
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 1: position or at least feel as though this team is

706
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,240
Speaker 1: gonna make a move on winning the division, the playoffs,

707
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 1: any of that, then maybe you start considering. But right now,

708
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: this is a lifeless team and it doesn't you're gonna

709
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 1: bring somebody in on your nightmare. You just I think

710
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 1: you save all of your picks. That's just my opinion. Man.

711
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 1: You've got I guess a week plus left until the

712
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,840
Speaker 1: trade inline. I think it's November third. I wouldn't necessarily

713
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 1: rule it out that they do something, but like I've

714
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 1: been saying, I don't, I don't think one player is

715
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 1: gonna make a huge difference. And what I guess to

716
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 1: explain what I was saying earlier, I wouldn't because we

717
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,400
Speaker 1: don't know what the CAP's gonna be next year. It's

718
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 1: gonna drop. I don't think there's any question about that.

719
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 1: I don't think you can take on a player in

720
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,760
Speaker 1: the situation like a Maori was, where he's gonna require

721
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 1: a large, large deal soon. I think it would have

722
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 1: to be. It'd have to be a younger player with

723
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: years left on his deal that could still help you.

724
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: And but but again, even doing that, I don't know

725
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,800
Speaker 1: what difference it's gonna make in terms of really turning

726
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 1: this thing around defensively, Rob. Anybody's sitting at home right

727
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: now that is worthy of getting on the team and

728
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,839
Speaker 1: making an immediate impact will take a lot less money

729
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 1: than what they typically would take for a one year deal.

730
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 1: They will come in here and take less money for

731
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: what are we in now? How many games? We gotta have?

732
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 1: Nine games? They'll come back and pay these cats for

733
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 1: nine games to come out here and let them prove

734
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 1: themselves for an opportunity for next year. That's what you

735
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,319
Speaker 1: do with veterans who are in a position of these

736
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,240
Speaker 1: guys who are sitting at home right now, and there's

737
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:39,360
Speaker 1: still good talent out there that's sitting at the crib

738
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 1: that will come in here and compete. That's what this

739
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 1: team is lacking right now. Competition and all that comes

740
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:47,839
Speaker 1: from pride, all that comes from heart, all these words

741
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 1: that you're seeing on the chat and everything else, that's

742
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 1: all rooted inside of you. And again, I keep going

743
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 1: back to, what is the culture of this team? What

744
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,920
Speaker 1: can you count on when these guys show up and

745
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: play in a positive of light? What what can we

746
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 1: rest our hat on and say these guys are gonna

747
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 1: bring this every time they step on the field. I

748
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: don't know what that is. Do you guys hear him?

749
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 1: Do you guys hear Isaiah? Because even in where we're

750
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,680
Speaker 1: going into week eight of the season, you're hearing the

751
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: themes and you're hearing the the reoccurrence of Earl Thomas,

752
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,279
Speaker 1: Earl Thomas, Earl Thomas. He's not saying the name, but

753
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,719
Speaker 1: he's he's he's definitely throwing it out there. He's still

754
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: trying to get that to happen. And will it to happen?

755
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 1: I don't that Anonymous sources source stamp. Yeah, or it's

756
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:38,800
Speaker 1: it's not. It's not just him, it's is it is.

757
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: I mean, at a certain point, you just got to

758
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,360
Speaker 1: recognized we don't have we don't have a culture, and

759
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: the culture is very important, very important. You guys, there's

760
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 1: nobody on this on this on this podcast right now,

761
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,720
Speaker 1: can name one one team that has a good record

762
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 1: that doesn't have a culture. I think the only one

763
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,759
Speaker 1: that we could probably name is Chicago. We just don't.

764
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 1: We don't see them enough right to know what the

765
00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,719
Speaker 1: heck's going on with them. Every other team we would

766
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,279
Speaker 1: that we were referenced Baltimore radis. We know what they are,

767
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 1: the city, we know what they are. Right, Hey, Baker

768
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 1: Mayfield's gonna dance on you, right, he showed right, And

769
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: all these people are talking about, hey, let's get rid

770
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: of coach, right, let's get rid of one of our coaches.

771
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 1: Lets get rid of the Cartha, let's get rid of Nolan. Hey,

772
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:18,880
Speaker 1: the Falcons got rid of their head coach. And guess what,

773
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 1: they still gotta had to come back on them yesterday

774
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 1: though they were but shots at the Falcons and you

775
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 1: know what, you know what, and you're right because you're

776
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,920
Speaker 1: you're talking You've been in a lot of different spots

777
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 1: where there was a strong culture in the locker room. Yeah,

778
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 1: like you're speaking from experience in New England, Seattle, the Giants,

779
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 1: even you know, the Cowboys were very competitive when you

780
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 1: were here. So there there was a culture in that

781
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:50,359
Speaker 1: locker room. Defensively too, So you're speaking from experience. Yeah,

782
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 1: and I Rock and you were here. Catch was fighting.

783
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 1: We were having fights in practice. In practice. If somebody

784
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,400
Speaker 1: got a route ran on him, guess what pac Man

785
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,759
Speaker 1: was calling them back to was calling them back, right,

786
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:03,839
Speaker 1: it didn't matter. Brady James was calling them back, Jay

787
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: Ratlin right, Marcus spears like. There wasn't there at every

788
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,360
Speaker 1: level on both sides of the ball. It was not

789
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 1: going to be okay that I was beat not acceptable.

790
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 1: And we're talking about practice, practice, okay, practice to the field, yeah,

791
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 1: not a game. We're talking about practice. And that was

792
00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 1: the culture. If you got, if you got, if you

793
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 1: got punked in practice, then you were gonna get shown up.

794
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 1: They were gonna put you on film right in practice,

795
00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 1: because as you should be embarrassed to show up like that.

796
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 1: Don't you even think about bringing that mess to the game.

797
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:36,840
Speaker 1: It's been frustrating, it's been embarrassing, and we're continuing to

798
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:38,720
Speaker 1: break it down. We do have to take a break

799
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 1: before we close things out, so let's go ahead and

847
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 1: they're not coming back home this week. They've got a

848
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 1: road game again against the nfcast faux Philadelphia. And while

849
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:38,600
Speaker 1: this just feels absolutely wrong to say, it's completely the truth.

850
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:41,120
Speaker 1: And Isaiah brought it up, and Heckman brought it up

851
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 1: during the break, But guys, even at two and five,

852
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 1: you're still completely in this division. Now, I just wanted

853
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 1: to throw that out there. I'm not going to go

854
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: into it because it is frustrating and I'm angry and

855
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to even want to talk about the

856
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: Silver linings. But you're still in there, Isaiah, you really

857
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:03,359
Speaker 1: are right now, Rob, Rob feels like the furthest thing.

858
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:05,439
Speaker 1: It feels like the furthest thing away from your grasp

859
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,160
Speaker 1: right now, and everyone really does. Everybody's frustrated, everybody's angry,

860
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 1: and it seems like this this season is terrible. Your

861
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 1: most people are talking about, Oh, let's play for a

862
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:18,080
Speaker 1: top five pick. Listen up, this this season can It

863
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,879
Speaker 1: doesn't feel like it will. But this season can turn

864
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 1: around and they can't get in the playoffs and they

865
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 1: can make a run because these guys still have the

866
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 1: guys I know. Heck, I'm just talking facts. You know.

867
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 1: I don't I take I take a motion out of things.

868
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 1: These are the facts. They still have a shot, even

869
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,359
Speaker 1: though it feels like they shouldn't and they don't. There's

870
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,040
Speaker 1: there's a cowboy fan. There's a cowboy fan out there

871
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:40,399
Speaker 1: that just said, every time I try and get out,

872
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 1: you pull me back in. He just back. I feel

873
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: like that ropes get a little thinner in the middle.

874
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 1: I just feel like those strings are barely holding on

875
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:56,439
Speaker 1: at this point. Rob. I mean, oh, the streets are slick, Yeah,

876
00:43:56,560 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 1: the roads are slick. There icy Yeah, No, it. You're right,

877
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 1: And the truth on no matter is they can make

878
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 1: a decision. The light could come on and these guys

879
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: go out there with reckless abandon Kyle Allen was an

880
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: undrafted quarterback. Let's not act like this guy was a

881
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,160
Speaker 1: first round guy, all right. He was playing behind a

882
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:18,279
Speaker 1: offensive line that was second and third string guys just

883
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:21,120
Speaker 1: like us. So, I mean, how were they able to

884
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,920
Speaker 1: do what they did versus? The question still begs we

885
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 1: have to get that answer. Why is this defense that

886
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,800
Speaker 1: is full of first round draft picks and guys that

887
00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:34,840
Speaker 1: we've seen do it on other rosters on other teams

888
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,879
Speaker 1: not doing it here? So I mean, look, we could

889
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,319
Speaker 1: beat ourselves over the head with this question all day long.

890
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 1: But when they go out there and put the tape

891
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,160
Speaker 1: out there that they don't give a damn about it,

892
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 1: what are we arguing about? Do you know what this said?

893
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 1: This is the concern I have because you guys are right,

894
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,239
Speaker 1: they're not. Technically, they're not out of it. No, but

895
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 1: Washington's gonna hang around this race because everything starts up front,

896
00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 1: and they've got a d line that can screw up

897
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 1: a game, screwuping off and some games fan that can

898
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,960
Speaker 1: keep them in games. Philly still has their heart and

899
00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:08,600
Speaker 1: soul in terms of offensively. You know, even when things

900
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:10,799
Speaker 1: are breaking down around them, Carson Wentz is still fighting,

901
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:14,239
Speaker 1: still trying to make things happen. And the Giants don't

902
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:17,320
Speaker 1: look now, but they're getting better. They're not good, but

903
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,440
Speaker 1: by the time they face the Cowboys after January first,

904
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:24,359
Speaker 1: they might be a competitive football team. So the other

905
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,839
Speaker 1: three teams in the division are getting better and are

906
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 1: fighting through things. The Cowboys are not. Now that can change.

907
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:33,359
Speaker 1: But we're almost halfway through the season, fellas, and there's

908
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:36,440
Speaker 1: reaches a certain point where is it going to change?

909
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 1: What kind of season do you want to have? Do

910
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:40,400
Speaker 1: you want to let it keep going this way or

911
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,400
Speaker 1: you want to make a change. They're at a tipping

912
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 1: point right now, while and it starts today, rap and start.

913
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,359
Speaker 1: I totally agree with you, guys. I'm probably the least

914
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,959
Speaker 1: optimistic guy because you guys know, I deal with facts.

915
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,279
Speaker 1: I don't deal with emotion, right, But I could tell you, guys,

916
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 1: when I went to go join a New York Giants

917
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 1: team right in twenty eleven, it felt like this, right, Yeah,

918
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,799
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you from it felt like this, right,

919
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 1: What happened eleven. I walked away with a ring, right.

920
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: I walked away with a super Bowl ring, right, because Hey,

921
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:12,239
Speaker 1: the light switch came on. And I'm just telling you

922
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 1: guys from experience, it felt like this. It felt hopeless.

923
00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:17,919
Speaker 1: It felt like the season was done. Oh my gosh,

924
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,160
Speaker 1: start thinking about next year, and I guess what. You

925
00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 1: win a game and cast get a little okay, hold on, hell, okay,

926
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 1: that's that's who we are. And guess what. Boom? You

927
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 1: win another game. It's like, oh shoot, let me pull

928
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 1: out the good suits. Then let me button this button up,

929
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:32,320
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And he guess what in

930
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 1: this swag comes back? And then and then guys play

931
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:35,960
Speaker 1: like that like you expected them to play whenever you

932
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 1: put it on paper, whenever you formulated this team. So

933
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,879
Speaker 1: there's a chance I am not the guy, but I'm

934
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 1: telling you the way things are set up right now,

935
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,840
Speaker 1: a losing record is going to win this division. A

936
00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:48,800
Speaker 1: loser record is gonna win this division. So it's frustrated,

937
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,400
Speaker 1: as mad, as hopeless as everybody feels. Right now, this

938
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:53,720
Speaker 1: can turn around. Now it's up to them to decide

939
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 1: if if it is or not. But this can turn

940
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:59,680
Speaker 1: around because on paper, these guys are dudes. They haven't

941
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,160
Speaker 1: played dudes. But I'll tell you it's a light switch.

942
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,319
Speaker 1: Whether they gonna cut it on or all, we're gonna see.

943
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 1: So three things based off of that to close the show.

944
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:10,319
Speaker 1: First Off, you're right, I think a losing record will

945
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,360
Speaker 1: win this division. But even to obtain a seven and

946
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:15,759
Speaker 1: nine record, the Cowboys have to win five of their

947
00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:17,960
Speaker 1: next nine games and go five and four the rest

948
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,959
Speaker 1: of the way. So with that being said, you're still

949
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 1: going to you still have a long way to go

950
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:25,920
Speaker 1: in terms of getting a winning record to get to

951
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 1: the playoffs a little bit later on. Secondly, I'm not

952
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:31,879
Speaker 1: going to discount what you just said, but no team

953
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 1: has ever made the Super Bowl after starting two and

954
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 1: four or two and five, and the Cowboys are of

955
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 1: course in that boat at the moment. And Isaiah, I

956
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 1: don't know about your New York Giants team in twenty eleven.

957
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:44,759
Speaker 1: I don't know how they started through the first seven weeks,

958
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:46,799
Speaker 1: but I know it wasn't two and five. I'll tell

959
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,400
Speaker 1: you that much before they getting on a run and

960
00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 1: finding their way. But I just think overall, it's disappointing

961
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:54,839
Speaker 1: and there's much more that we need to break down

962
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,399
Speaker 1: XS and OZ wise, We're gonna do that tomorrow. It's

963
00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,480
Speaker 1: fans on the fifty Tuesday, so sending your fans are

964
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:03,400
Speaker 1: out today and tomorrow on the Parishcape stream. But that

965
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,439
Speaker 1: is gonna do it here for Talking Cowboys today once again,

966
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,839
Speaker 1: forty five minutes not enough to contain this show, because man,

967
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,120
Speaker 1: we've got a lot more to talk about following the

968
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:15,399
Speaker 1: twenty five to three loss to Washington yesterday. But we'll

969
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 1: be back tomorrow for Heck Harrison, for Rob Phillips, who

970
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 1: are Isaiah stand back and Chris Beam holding it down

971
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:23,319
Speaker 1: in the back. I'm Kyle Yeoman saying so long from

972
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,760
Speaker 1: the Star in Frisco. We'll see you tomorrow on Talking Cowboys.

973
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,759
Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

974
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,040
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
