We're live 10 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: from this s WBC Mortgage Studios at the Star, presenter 11 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: by Bill Like the only beer of the Dallas Cowboys 12 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: a day. Our job is get you guys ready for 13 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: Cowboys versus forty nine Ers. It is the divisional rounds 14 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: of the playoffs, down to the final four teams in 15 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: the NFC. It's getting real and so we got a 16 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: lot we're gonna talk about today. We'll jump into the 17 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: San Francisco offense versus the Dallas defense. Before we do that, though, 18 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you guys a bigger picture question. 19 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,839 Speaker 1: This actually came from one of our listeners, Jose Rodriguez. 20 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: He says I've been a Cowboys fan since the seventies 21 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: and will continue to be. But I have to ask, 22 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,039 Speaker 1: can you really expect to have the same performance from 23 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: both sides of the ball against the forty nine ers? 24 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,319 Speaker 1: Is what we saw versus Tampa Bay? How do you 25 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: put that all in context? What we saw last week 26 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: and now going up against or you can play as 27 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: bad as you did against the Commanders, Yeah, I'll say, 28 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: I mean like it's it's everything's different. I mean, you 29 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: went up against a team that doesn't want to run 30 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: the football versus a team that runs the football, and 31 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: so you know it's it's going to be a different 32 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: game plans. They're a different personnel. I mean, I don't 33 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: know if they're gonna put Galimore and Bohanna inactive for 34 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: this game or both of them. I mean, I think 35 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: you have to play it a little bit differently, knowing 36 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: you know they say at all time, style styles make fights, 37 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: and thinking in this case it's gonna be it's gonna 38 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: be different, So I expect a completely different game plan. 39 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: I can I ask you guys a question. I know 40 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: you just asked me one. Can I ask you guys 41 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: a question? And then I'll circle back with your question, UM, 42 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: do you feel like that dan Quinn played the last 43 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: couple of games not showing Israel? Kuam wu to you 44 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: said that on the radio this morning. I thought we 45 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: talked about that, Bobby, Bobby Belt and I do a podcast, 46 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 1: Love with the Star, and Bobby brought that up last 47 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 1: night in the podcast. I didn't think of it that way, 48 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry I missed you this morning driving in 49 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: and I appreciate all you've done all season for us 50 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: at one O five three the UM, I just wonder 51 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: if you know what else? Is there something else that 52 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: dan Quinn's not showing us right now that he's got 53 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: up his sleeve. And the thing about it is he 54 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: understands this play caller. He's been with this play caller, 55 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: but the play caller has been with him. Yeah, so 56 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: there's a lot of that that you know that that 57 00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: game that you can play. Let me ask that though, 58 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: to how much difference does that make when you say 59 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: the play call has also been with him. Yeah, he 60 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: wasn't a defensive coordinate at that time, he was the 61 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 1: head coach. How much does he really know how Dan 62 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: wants to call the defense? Yeah? If he didn't, if 63 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: he experienced it more as a head coach than a 64 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator. I think that. I think there's things those 65 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: those days where Dan probably sat in on a lot 66 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 1: of meetings, and you know when you practice against somebody 67 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: every day and it's their d it's let's be honest. 68 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: You know who was the coach? It was Morse right 69 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: that used it was Dan's defensive coordinator, Raheem Morris. Ya, 70 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: Raheem Morrise was his defensive coordinator when he was the 71 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: head coach. So how about those practice times where he 72 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: knew it was Dan influence and Raheem Morris And so 73 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: Kyle working against that kind of thinking, or maybe you 74 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: have a question. These coaches do interact with each other, 75 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: and so the thing I think that Nick's right about 76 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: this is can it be the same? Sure, you know 77 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: they're they're capable. We've seen Dak Prescott play at a 78 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: very high level. He played at an extremely high level 79 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: in that game the other day. So and if you 80 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: and scouts are taught, if you've seen it one time, 81 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: you can see it again. So Dallas is capable of 82 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: playing like that. I do wonder is there something else 83 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: that Kellen Moore and Dan Quinn. And maybe you could 84 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: say the same thing for what's going on in San 85 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: Francisco right now, because I went back and watched their 86 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: game against Atlanta where they got beat and it looks 87 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 1: like a completely different team than what you're seeing right now. 88 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: So you're wondering what both sides. And yeah, it's the 89 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: problem that Dallas is running into is they had extra 90 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: days to help and prepare for the Tampa game. They 91 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: don't have a whole heck of a lot of extra 92 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 1: days to Okay, let's implement. And McCarthy's very much like, well, 93 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: I don't like to just show new stuff. I don't 94 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,559 Speaker 1: like he said that the other day to Brad Sham 95 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: on the pregame show, or I'm not interested in trying. 96 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: And I think maybe he just said it to Brad 97 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: does make people think something else, because I do believe 98 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: Dan Quinn is going to come. You're gonna have to 99 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: show something different. I know in the pregame show I 100 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,119 Speaker 1: even talked about this with Brady. You have two different 101 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 1: game plans. You have a first half game plan in 102 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 1: a second half game plan, whether it's playing Man, whether 103 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: it's playing Zone, you know you're mixing it up. However 104 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: you do it, you have different plans. You're just not 105 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: gonna sit there and let them get a beat on 106 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: you of how you're gonna play this game. And I 107 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 1: think the same thing goes with Kyle Shanahan. I don't 108 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: think that Dan Quinn is going to give him a 109 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: similar game plan. So, yeah, you're capable of doing it, 110 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: absolutely you are. It might look different though, of how 111 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: you did it from how you played that Tampa game. 112 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 1: One other thing I'll throw out to you guys, as 113 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 1: you look at the San Francisco team on defense, they 114 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 1: have I mean also this overall team, they're on an 115 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: eleven game win streak. They're starting quarterback now, Brock Purdy 116 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: is on a six game win streak. I think it 117 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: is when you look at this team, you start thinking, man, 118 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: how do you beat them? But then when you dive 119 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: in a little deeper, the thing that stuck out to 120 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: me is they have played this so far this year. 121 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 1: They have played five teams that have winning records. Only 122 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: one of them you would think of as a really 123 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: good team. That's Kansas City and they got destroyed forty 124 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: four twenty five. They beat the Chargers twenty two sixteen. 125 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: They beat their ten and seven, They beat the nine 126 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: and eight Seattle Seahawks twice, beat them twenty seven to 127 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: seven during the regular season, and then beat him last 128 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 1: week forty one twenty three. And then they beat the 129 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,559 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins, who are also a nine and eight team, 130 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: thirty three to seventeen. My question seventeen, My question becomes 131 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: to you, guys, is this team really as good as 132 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 1: we think or is it a lot about the fact 133 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: that they haven't played the upper echelon teams in the NFL, 134 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: which makes you think Dallas has a much better chance 135 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: than you would think otherwise. Yeah, but they are beating 136 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 1: them pretty handily, though I would say that. I mean, 137 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 1: there's not been a lot of close games. Oh sorry, 138 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: Raiders was one of them. Yeah, but for the most part, 139 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: they're winning these games pretty handily. So I saw that too, 140 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 1: and I thought, well, yeah, you're right, they're not playing 141 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: a lot of these great teams, but they're playing well 142 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: in those games. So I think that should give them confidence. 143 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: And I don't care who you are. Eleven in the rows, Yeah, 144 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: pretty good. Well, even then, it's one of those things 145 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: where I've learned to sometimes look at it like in 146 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: this perspective that it doesn't necessarily matter who the opponent 147 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: is because the Cowboys have We've seen they can play 148 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: whichever way. They can play really good or really bad. 149 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: They tend to kind of either level up or level 150 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: down according to who their opponent is. So I think 151 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:38,239 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys have a chance to win any game 152 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: against any opponent. It just depends on what team decides 153 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: to show up for the Cowboys that day. Yeah, that's 154 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: it's I don't look at the opponent because I think 155 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: Nick said it right. You win eleven straight games. You 156 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: know that that in itself is that they didn't have 157 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: a bad week. You know that the Raider game was 158 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: really interesting of how they played that and gave me 159 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: some clues how I would attack them. Uh, you know, 160 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: watching the Seattle game at first half, at least she 161 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: gets some ideas how you would attack. I think Atlanta 162 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: had a good plan for how to attack. That was 163 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: a Jimmy garoppolo game. But I wanted to see, you know, 164 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: what did they do? And so yeah, there's there's there's 165 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: some keys to this thing, this matchup that you could 166 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: take from it. And I'm not looking at who they played. 167 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: I'm looking Okay, what did what those teams that they 168 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: played what gave the forty nine ers trouble? And there's 169 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: some clues for that, you know. I also think the 170 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: forty nine ers are not going to do what the 171 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: Bucks did obviously that they want to run the ball. 172 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: But the games where we've seen Parsons just be neutralized somewhat. 173 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 1: It's those teams that like to run the ball and 174 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: can run it in different, unique, creative ways. That's the 175 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,839 Speaker 1: ones that I think give him some problems. Tampa. I 176 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: just wanted to go back and you saw it on 177 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 1: the first drive of the game. I mean, he was 178 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 1: able to just get back there and go up against 179 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: the left tackle and you know, they called holding and 180 00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: it was just like, oh so it's gonna be like that, 181 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: and and Parsons was destructive of the whole game. Offensive 182 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: I was gonna ask you, offensively, who do you think 183 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,319 Speaker 1: this San Francisco team compares to the most as far 184 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: as the opponents that the Cowboys have already faced Philadelphilly, Philly, Philadelphia, 185 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: And even at that, as you watch them, it's very, 186 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: very different. I don't know that I've seen a team 187 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: this season in the NFL that does some of the 188 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: things that they do offensively, justin how they move their 189 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: personnel around. Well, the way it compares to me is 190 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: not the running quarterback, because this quarterback's not going to run. 191 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: I mean he'll run to escape. He won't run to 192 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: run a play where they where Derek is right though, 193 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,559 Speaker 1: is it is uniquely different. But the use of personnel, 194 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 1: the use of the tight end. This team plays with 195 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: a full back. Not many teams do that. I mean 196 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: a lot of teams and they play and this team 197 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: will run back to back screens. Philly will do that. 198 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: Philly will get a bunch formation, they'll bring guys by 199 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: jet sweet this team will do that. The way that 200 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: they use their personnel is similar to Philly. But the 201 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: biggest difference to me is Philly's quarterback can run as 202 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: a weapon. This guy, I think that he's not going 203 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: to be willing to run the football like we saw 204 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,199 Speaker 1: him Phil. But the way they use their personnel in 205 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: a lot of different ways is very similar to me. 206 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: I'll give you an example. You saw. You'll see primarily 207 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: the same guys on the field most of the time. 208 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: The difference will be they'll line these guys up everywhere. 209 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: I saw one play where they had Yuschek, who is 210 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,559 Speaker 1: the fullback, they had him out wide, they had they 211 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 1: had um McCaffrey's running back kind of as a flanker 212 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: off of him out wide. They had the receiver Debo 213 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: in the backfield at the running back position, and then 214 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: you got killed all that tight end. And it's just 215 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: like in every play you can see a different guy 216 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: at a different place. So when you start thinking about 217 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: it from a matchup standpoint, if you really let's say, 218 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: for example, Dallas says, who's the best wide receiver? Okay, 219 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: obviously is Diebo Samuel? Okay, we're gonna put digs on him? Okay, 220 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,959 Speaker 1: where are you going digs? If he's in the backfield? 221 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: What are you doing? Like, it's hard to really match 222 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: up because every play, different guys are doing different things 223 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: and all of them can do it well. They're running 224 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: back and catch out of the backfield and can catch 225 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: from a wide receiver position very very well. So it's 226 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: a very very tough matchup. How do you how do 227 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: you what do you do to try to prepare for 228 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 1: something like that? Or how do you what are you going? 229 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: A job interview that could help you try and get 230 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 1: the cold shot real quick. Yeah, I mean honestly, but 231 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 1: that's that's what he did. Honestly. What makes me feel 232 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: good about this game defensively is what he did last week. 233 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: Not the result, but how he changed things up. We 234 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: just finished talking about it. The fact that he said, 235 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna take Nashan Wright. I'm gonna put 236 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: him down. I'm gonna take Bohan, I'm gonna put him down. 237 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna actually use this other guy that 238 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 1: I haven't really used in this way as a as 239 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 1: a slot corner, who has actually been a safety for us. 240 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna use him in this game because I think 241 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: it's a good matchup situation. That makes me feel good 242 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: that he knows he's at least thinking about this, Like, 243 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: I know this team is going to do a lot 244 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: of different things. I have some tricks in my back 245 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: too that I can trick things up and I could 246 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: show them something maybe they haven't seen and that may help. Right, 247 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: I would do it with a Sean right too. I 248 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 1: mean not this game, but next season. I mean I'm 249 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 1: using these two guys like that. I've said it all 250 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: year long. I don't think he's a good outside corner. 251 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: It's hard for that guy's that tall to be that 252 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: good against NFL receivers. But they can play in the 253 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,959 Speaker 1: middle if they're smart and they're aware and they got 254 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,119 Speaker 1: these you know, I mean, they could just touch both sidelines. 255 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: I mean with their arms. I mean, it doesn't it 256 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: doesn't pass the eye test. When it comes to tall 257 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 1: corners playing in this league, there's not a whole lot 258 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: of them because of how leggy and how it hard 259 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 1: it is to turn. But that kid who's he sees 260 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: himself as a corner. He didn't see himself as the safety. 261 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: And so you know, he's adapted. And I'm talking about Izzy, 262 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 1: he's adapted himself to say, listen, I could play this 263 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: position and I could show quickness and I you know, 264 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 1: when the ball goes in side, he's got the length 265 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: where he doesn't have to drape his arm over to 266 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: make a play. He's got the ability to play off hand. 267 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: And so yeah, I think that to me, they're gonna need, 268 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: they're gonna need. It's such a matchup dependent game this week, 269 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: and tackling is top of the list, but matchup depending 270 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: because to me, you know, you talk about their receivers 271 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: and and what you know and how they and how 272 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: they operate. Deebo Samuel has missed several games. But to me, 273 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: Brandy and Ayuk is a problem. Yeah, you know they're 274 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:38,319 Speaker 1: other receiver number eleven. He's a problem, and Kittles a 275 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: problem and us checks a problem. But you got, okay, 276 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: when they start spreading you out and they put the 277 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: McCaffrey trade has put them over the top. The McCaffrey 278 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: trade went mate. If you watch the Atlanta game, no McCaffrey. Okay, 279 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: good offense. They get McCaffrey. Now they got this ability 280 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: to toss the ball, throw the ball, they do all 281 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: this stuff with him, and it's like it's just set 282 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 1: their offense into a completely different direction. And so now 283 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: you know Brandon Aiyuk. They get on the goal line, 284 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: where they do they put the fullback out there, They 285 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: put Ayuk out there, and they thought a screen and 286 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: then they just blow it into the end zone and 287 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: you're like going, all right, So you have to figure 288 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 1: out when all of a sudden, when they put Deebo 289 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: Samuel in the backfield, you're taking a corner if you're 290 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: traveling Diggs and he's now playing in the middle, in 291 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 1: the box, and all of a sudden they run the ball. Well, 292 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: Diggs is in the box, is he gonna make a play? 293 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: Is he going to come up and tackle. That's what 294 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: they're banking on. They're banking on that your corner as 295 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: you drag him into the box, is not going to 296 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: make that tackle or not gonna be able to help 297 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: make the play. So they create mismatches. They make you 298 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: move guys who can tackle in the box against the 299 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: running game to the outside to cover a fullback and 300 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: a running back that's standing out there. It's just it's 301 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: they mess with you. They really do mess with you, 302 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: and they mess with your alignment and how you play. 303 00:14:58,320 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: Like you said, well, we've got to keep this box. 304 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna keep it tight. We gotta keep all our guy, 305 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: you know, we gotta keep All of a sudden, vander 306 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 1: esh just walking out there and covering somebody, and now 307 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: that takes him out of the box to make a 308 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: play and they run the ball. That's that's pretty creative 309 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: stuff if you ask man, Yeah, I'll throw this in 310 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: real quick before we go to the break. I was 311 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: looking at that New Orleans game where they held him 312 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: the thirteen points. One of the things you notice in 313 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: that game is they didn't allow them to kind of 314 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: take them out of what they did. They tried to 315 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: kind of stay where they were. They played some zones. 316 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: And so what it does it forces because because you're right, 317 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: Shanahan's gonna look to kind of mess with you. He's 318 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: trying to get you to do all the things. Look 319 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: at the I can he say, I got this fullback 320 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: out here, so maybe I gotta take a lineback out 321 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: the linebacker out there with him. And and what New 322 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: Orleans did was we're gonna stay where we are right, 323 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: to stay in our base and and we're just gonna 324 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: basically play four down line and three linebackers and we're 325 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: just gonna kind of move and play zone and figure 326 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: it out. And it takes the way that superpower that 327 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: that San Francisco creates with Shanahan. I actually think that 328 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 1: might be a smart way to handle. See. The thing 329 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: about it is like, and I think you're exactly right 330 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: about this. And you know, if you can get Dan 331 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: Quinn in the building at lunch or wherever you guys 332 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: can see him, it's a good question what Derek just 333 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: talked about, because what happens is you become so matchup 334 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: conscious a play in these guys. Okay, this is who 335 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have takeaway, ayook, this is who I'm gonna 336 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: play against, Deebo Samuel, this is who I'm gonna play 337 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: against Kittle. And now it turns into they've got you 338 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: so spread out, and now they've got your bad players on. 339 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: They're good players, you know, and all of a sudden 340 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: you're in. You're in a little bit of a bind 341 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: that way because of all the adjustments you're having to make. 342 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: And to Derek's point, it's a great question for dan 343 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: Quinn if you could get him off on the side. 344 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: He's not gonna say in front of the meta or 345 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: anything like that, but how do you play? I mean, 346 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: I'm going to talk to some coaches today around the 347 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: league that I know that played against the forty nine 348 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: ers and say, you know, okay, how do you how 349 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 1: do you play against this this front, how do you 350 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: play against this how do you move the ball or 351 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: how do you attack this and that? And so I'm 352 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: looking forward to that because they are a fascinating team 353 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 1: to watch on tape, just because of all the things 354 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: that they do to fun team to watch.

The segment presented by blockchain dot com. 404 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: All right, let us jump into the San Francisco offense 405 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,640 Speaker 1: versus the Dallas defense even more than we have already. 406 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 1: Here's what I'd like to do, Brian. There are four 407 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:44,400 Speaker 1: players on that offense that are unique talents, unique guys 408 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: that Cowboys are going to have to know about. Yeah, 409 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: I'd like you to walk us through. I'm going to 410 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: give you the name, and I want you to tell 411 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: me what is the thing that they do well and 412 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 1: how would you if you're the Cowboys, combat that. So 413 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: let's start first with there can I say, one guy 414 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: real quick or Trent Williams, the deef, the left tackle 415 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 1: might tip plays runner pass. Oh okay, look at look 416 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: at his feet. When he plays narrow bass, it's a 417 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: run play. When he plays wide bass, it's a pass. 418 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 1: You get Dan Quinn off to the side. Get that 419 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: message over there to the locker. I believe. I believe 420 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: they know these things. Yeah, I believe. If I believe, 421 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: because you could watch Trent Williams. Trent Williams is a 422 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: very out We all understand Trent Williams from the Commander's 423 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: stays way back in the day. He is always mean, nasty, 424 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: s ob As a player, he's one of the best 425 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: left tackles in the league. When I don't think he 426 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 1: gets nearly enough credit for how mean and nasty he is. 427 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: That's a tough matchup. But you watch him play narrow bass, 428 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,719 Speaker 1: they run wide bass, they throw. Keep an eye on that. 429 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: If you're if you're a Cowboy fan, all right, okay, 430 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: And I don't think I think cowboys. I think people 431 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: around the league have an idea of that. I hope 432 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: they do. I just know that's from my days of 433 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: pro scouting. I was watching him play and it kind 434 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 1: of that's the way he plays upright. He doesn't get 435 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: down in a stance, so you could tell by the 436 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: way he puts his feet like when he's when he's 437 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: real close, he's going to fire off and get into you. 438 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: When he's a little bit wider, he's kicking out of there. 439 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 1: So something to keep an eye him. Okay, you're gonna 440 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: ask me about Samuel? Is what you're gonna ask me? Yes, Okay, 441 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel. And when you watch Diebo Samuel play when 442 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: he was at South Carolina as a player, though he 443 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 1: was a guy that he's got a running back body, 444 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: you would probably you would probably say, I don't like 445 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: the way this guy, but he's got a running back body. 446 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: He's a big guy that plays wide receiver. The thing 447 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: about him is he's a really powerful guy, and so 448 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: what you have to deal with with him is when 449 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: the ball gets to him, he's a hard guy to 450 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: tackle because he's a thick, lower body guy. He runs 451 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: through people. He's powerful. He's not afraid of making those 452 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 1: types of the contact and just taking on people. They 453 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 1: use him a lot of different ways. They use him tight, 454 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: they use him in the backfield like there was a 455 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: time where they were talking about him just handing him 456 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: the football and they just you know, as a running 457 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 1: back when they really didn't have one. And he's like, ah, 458 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: not too interested in doing that. But here we are. 459 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: Every time they throw him the ball, it's like dealing 460 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,360 Speaker 1: with a running back that catches the ball really well. 461 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: So very powerful guy in that regard. Christian McCaffrey. Christian 462 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: McCaffrey is when he came out of Stanford, I thought, 463 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: I go, I've never seen it back like this. His 464 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: dad was Ed McCaffrey, played for the old Denver Broncos. Yeah, 465 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: his mom was a soccer player at Stanford. She might 466 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,479 Speaker 1: be the best athlete of the family right there when 467 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: you're talking about him. But you could tell the athletic 468 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: ability that he has that Christian McCaffrey has never been 469 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: able to stay healthy at Carolina when he's done, when 470 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 1: he has stayed healthy, he's had huge games. But here 471 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 1: with the forty nine ers, he's playing well. They toss 472 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: him the ball. They throw him the ball in the screens, 473 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,640 Speaker 1: they put him wide outside, they throw him the ball there. 474 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: They think a ways, creative ways to try and get 475 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: him the ball. A lot of the stuff is they 476 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: try and toss it to him and let him run 477 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 1: down hill. That's a big thing. Take the snap, pitch 478 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: it to him, let him run down hill. Get blockers 479 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,159 Speaker 1: out in front. He's an exceptional pass catcher out of 480 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: the backfield. You gotta worry about the screens, but you 481 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: just gotta worry about the downhill running style. He broke 482 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: the Seattle game open last week with a sixty five 483 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: yard run and it was blocked perfectly. Nobody on the 484 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: edge and he just hit the gap. And when he's 485 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 1: got speed to finish as well. George Kittle. George Kittle 486 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: is a tight end that plays in line for you 487 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: figure for a superstar. When I mean in line, I 488 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: mean a guy that plays right next to the offensive 489 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,199 Speaker 1: tackle that you see him sometimes the flex and the 490 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: slots and stuff. A lot of these really good tight 491 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: ends now play detached away. He's one of these guys 492 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: that plays in line. Okay, there's your problem. When he 493 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: plays in line, you lose track where he is on 494 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: the field. He runs routes from in line, So all 495 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,919 Speaker 1: of a sudden, now you're in a situation where you're going, oh, 496 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: where'd he go? You know, you lose him because there's 497 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: all kinds of crossing and stuff, and here's Kittle. You know, 498 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: it's like it's like a Terminator movie, you know, with 499 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 1: all the smoke and all that, and Arnold Schwartzener comes 500 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: walking out of the smoke. Well that's what this guy does. 501 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: And so yeah, but the fact that he plays in line, 502 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: people lose him, and they also throw him the ball 503 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 1: on the screens, the delays, the stuff we were talking 504 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: about with Philadelphia. Just a really accomplished player. He's one 505 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: of those guys to in the Seattle game, he's got 506 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: a first down, he's running parallel to the marker and 507 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 1: instead of just turning up, he out runs the defense 508 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: and then turns up the field for like another twelve yards. 509 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: Instead of just trying to get it and get tackled, 510 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: he's running, run and run it and then he turns 511 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 1: up the field and goes So accomplished player that way, 512 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuk, this might be their best Yeah, this might 513 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: this might be there in my opinion, this might be 514 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: their best receiver. And I know he's played four more 515 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 1: games than when Deebo Samuel's played, but this guy is 516 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 1: a is a threat down the field. Red zone threat, 517 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: catches the ball really really well. He's a very he's 518 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 1: a north south guy. He gets the ball and he 519 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: gets up the field in the hurry. These guys are 520 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: all really difficult to tackle. That's they They put so 521 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: much pressure on you run after catch, and this guy's 522 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 1: one of those guys that can catch in traffic. He's 523 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: not afraid to take the routes in the middle. You 524 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: got to watch him in the red zone because he'll 525 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: work the back of the end zone and they'll throw 526 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 1: him the football. They'll throw him the screen real quick 527 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 1: in the red zone and then let him run into 528 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: the end zone as well. Like that. They're all really 529 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 1: really good players. I'm surprised that because you said I 530 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: got four unique players. I think the most unique guy 531 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 1: they have on that offense is you check. You check. Yeah, 532 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: Because there's teams Accolays a face with good receivers, explosive backs. 533 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: Maybe not a debo type of guy, uh good tight ends, 534 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: really good tight ends like that. But but I think 535 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: what sets them apart, and this is just me, is 536 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: that they have a fullback tight end guy that wide receiver. 537 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: You never know you can do everything because when he's 538 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 1: on the field. You don't know what personnel that really means. 539 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean they can they don't throw, that doesn't 540 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: mean they don't run. You know that they can play power, 541 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: they can play. I think he's one of the most 542 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: versatile guys they've got there is that. There's no question 543 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: they had a vision for this player. They got him 544 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 1: from Baltimore, and Baltimore has always done a good job. 545 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 1: But in my opinion, Pozzy Newson and that crew with 546 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: their personnel and they got Kyle's us check, You're absolutely right. 547 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 1: They you know, they put him wide and they pair 548 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 1: him with somebody wide, and all of a sudden, you 549 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: have a blocker the fullback's blocking for a guy out 550 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 1: on the screen. They did it with Brandon and Ayuk 551 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: in the Atlanta game. They put them both right there 552 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: and then they just hammered. They hammered us check on 553 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: the corner and the and then all of a sudden, 554 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,959 Speaker 1: Auk comes inside. They throw him the ball and now 555 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: they've just got it going up the field. So yeah, 556 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 1: usually where my watching him play, wherever he lines up 557 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 1: generally is where the ball's going, So keep an eye 558 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,719 Speaker 1: on that. So if you see him kind of offset, 559 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: then the ball is likely going to go to that side. 560 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 1: They like to follow him with the block. He's just 561 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: so hard to deal with because he's coming down hill 562 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: at you and he's this big number forty four and 563 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: you're trying to fight him to get off the block 564 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 1: to make the play. Because you got this shifty guy 565 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: behind him. They can also break tackles. So yeah, that's 566 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 1: the usually where the ball is going is behind that 567 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 1: number forty four. When you when you're watching him play 568 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 1: well against Tampa, we saw the Cowboys defense be so 569 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: close many many, many times, I'd like intercepting the ball 570 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 1: or getting their hands on the ball. Is this team 571 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: that you can can be very close and actually create 572 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,679 Speaker 1: some turn Yeah, you can this guy, you know. I 573 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 1: mean the numbers say, but there's there were times when 574 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: I was watching him throw and teams he's been extremely 575 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: fortunate that teams have not picked him off. And so 576 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: to me, that's where I think that the Cowboys probably 577 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 1: left what three turnovers on the field last week in 578 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: this game against the Buccaneers that they could have had. 579 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: You know, you've got to make this guy pay if 580 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: he's going to I was watching some clips in the 581 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 1: Arizona game of him, and Arizona did a good job 582 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: at him. Like when he gets Seattle, he was much 583 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: better stepping up in the pocket and making throws. See, 584 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: Arizona made him kind of play back door and he 585 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 1: was trying to roll and get out of stuff. And 586 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: then that's where he got a little crazy throwing the football. 587 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: So if you can make him not have to deal, 588 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,640 Speaker 1: let him step up but go back around like what 589 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: Arizona did, you can get him to make some numbers 590 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: say he hasn't turned over the ball a ton, but 591 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 1: there's been some opportunities that teams have not taken advantage 592 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: of as a guy that was drafted the little, very 593 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: last pick in the NFL draft, mister irrelevant, is this 594 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: a situation where everybody in the league just misevaluated him 595 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 1: or is this a situation where that system just works 596 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: for him? And by the way, it is a very 597 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,439 Speaker 1: good and I mean we've seen Garoppolo, who a lot 598 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: of people think this is good quarterback, not a great quarterback, 599 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: have really good games and lead his team deep into 600 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,439 Speaker 1: the playoffs. Do you think this is more about the system. 601 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 1: I think it's both. I really do. I know that's 602 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: not the answer. Everyone loves, But I mean, I think 603 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: people misevaluated Kurt Warner, and I also think Kurt Warner 604 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: got got into a system that actually worked for him. 605 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I know there's different stories like that Romo, 606 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: same thing. Anytime you get a guy that's undrafted or 607 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 1: drafted very late. It's a combination of Yeah, they didn't 608 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: not necessarily see everything, but it's also the system. You 609 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: can say the same from Micah Parsons. You know, they 610 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: misevaluated him. Ten teams did not think he was a 611 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: pass rusher like that. The Cowboys say that they did. 612 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: But whatever, they got him and and they bared him 613 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: with Dan Quinn. Yeah, it's a system. It's also a badass. 614 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: And I think for Purdy is you know he's he's 615 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: he's in a and you watched him play, and Derek, 616 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,959 Speaker 1: you know this because you your your alma mater is 617 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: a big twelve team, so you've played games against Iowa State. 618 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: He was a four year starter at Iowa State. Iowa 619 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: State was in the top twenty five basically every year 620 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: he was there. What happened Iwa State this year when 621 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: he left Iowa State went in to be Iowa State. 622 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: From the early nineties when they were absolutely no good there. 623 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: Iowa stayed again where everybody went to, you know, Ames 624 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: Iowa and then smashed them and got a victory and 625 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 1: went home. You know, they were the homecoming team for 626 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 1: everybody before Brock Purdy got there. This guy throws. He's 627 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 1: in a perfect system because what the forty nine ers do. 628 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: The ball is not flying down the field. The ball 629 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: is intermediate and short. And that's what he did it. 630 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 1: I was date now he you know, he had a 631 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: really you know he's had he's had the Breust Hall, 632 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: the running back who was with the Jets, who before 633 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: he ripped up his knee, was having a could have 634 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: been Bookie of the year. This Iowa State, Alan Lazar, 635 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: they don't have a hell of a lot of players. 636 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: You know. It's very similar too. It's very similar to 637 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. Mississippi State was number one in the country 638 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: for several weeks and then when every when Dak left, 639 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: everybody went, we're all the good players. Yeah, well fourth round, Dallas, 640 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: pick one, thirty five, you know, that's where that's where 641 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: this guy. I don't think it was. I think people 642 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: kind of saw this guy as like he doesn't have 643 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: that ability to really smash the ball down the field. 644 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: What he does is he's really accurate, he's really smart, 645 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,719 Speaker 1: and it's short intermediate and that's how the forty nine 646 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 1: ers play, short intermediate, run after catch. It's a perfect 647 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: offense for a guy to play. And I could see 648 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: why they drafted him because of the trades. It's the 649 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 1: trade we're gonna pick a quarterback here with mister irrelevant. 650 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 1: Oh okay, we'll take the guy that's got these traits, 651 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: that throws the ball like seventy one percent of the 652 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: time to underneath or intermediate. And when you and Brian 653 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: you know this more than anybody. When you take a 654 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: quarterback in the seventh round, especially the last pick of 655 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: the draft, that tells me that he's got a ton 656 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: of teams that were looking at him, that we're probably 657 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: going to try to get him as a priority free agent, 658 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: which means you don't want to have to You don't 659 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 1: want to fight that fight for them, or pay for 660 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: it all that stuff, so might as well draft him. 661 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: What's really funny is in this playoffs, you're you played 662 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: a quarterback that was drafted six in the sixth round. 663 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: Tom Brady Grays ever to play, and now you're taking 664 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 1: to play in a chance against mister irrelevant seventh round guy. 665 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 1: So usually talk about and you know, and depending on 666 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: if Daniel Jones somehow wins and you win, that that 667 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: would be the first round quarterback you play against. But 668 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: if you're a crazy, Daniel Jones is the highest drafted 669 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: quarterback left in the NFC. Left, yeah, and he's the 670 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 1: one that everybody hates the most. One two, four seven, 671 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 1: right yeah, right out the other side, one one, one one. 672 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: They all first round, yeah, yeah, and wait, some of 673 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: them are the first pick of the draft, right, Burrow 674 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: Burrow number one, Lawrence Laws number one. Yeah, the eleventh 675 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: pick was my home maybe not eleven. He's at ten 676 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: ten yeah, and then uh Josh Allen like seven, right, 677 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: all four of them are top ten picks NC. It's 678 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: just Daniel j It's the it's the it's the Westminister 679 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 1: dog Show versus the Mutts, you know, and you hope 680 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 1: that your MutS MutS are good enough to be Yeah, 681 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 1: but that's where you know. But they took San Francisco. 682 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: They had of it, and you could call it luck. 683 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: You could call it luck, but you're if you're looking 684 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: at it you're thinking, who's the most accurate quarterback for 685 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 1: the offense that we would you know the way that 686 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 1: we play, and Brock Purties looks like a pretty good guided. 687 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: You know, he's you say, he's seventy one percent in 688 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: college throwing the ball underneath. You know, that's what he 689 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: does mentally, like if you got, if you managed to get. 690 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: I haven't seen him lose yet. I have seen him lose, 691 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: but it is were there are times that you can 692 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: I mean did yeah, regardless of them winning, or there 693 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: are times how you can see I can't. I don't 694 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: see him rattled. There are games where he played at 695 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 1: Iowa stay those big games where they just didn't have 696 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: enough players. They were getting these games that they won. 697 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: I believe they beat uh they won a game, well, 698 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 1: the Fiesta Bowl game that they won. They went and 699 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: he was a part of that, and he's he's a 700 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: good player. Yes, to Nick's point, a lot of teams 701 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: missed and it's a hard position. It's a hard position 702 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 1: to evaluate, and yeah, a lot, but I haven't seen 703 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: this guy get rattled. I've seen where he's He's made 704 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: some questionable throws, but he's perfect for offense. Great comparison 705 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: to dak at Mississippi State. Yeah, when you're recruiting, I 706 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 1: mean when you're when you're scouting players and you think, 707 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 1: you know, here's here's the list of Iowa State greats, 708 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 1: you know, and it's like worth the other page. I 709 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 1: noticed that the same with Mississippi State. I mean, there's 710 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 1: not a lot. So he probably was a big reason 711 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: for that. And so when you're evaluating him, we're like, well, 712 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: is he really good or was he just playing in 713 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: a system that, you know, a school that does Iowa State. 714 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: Iowa State was always in the top twenty five because 715 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: of him and the running back and Alan Lazar. That's 716 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 1: other than that. I mean, I'm sure there's a defensive 717 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,839 Speaker 1: guy that I'm missing, a rush end or something like that, 718 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: but yeah, that's it. I mean you're talking about they 719 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: went from like they went from having four or five 720 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 1: players and being were like, wow, this team is in 721 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,320 Speaker 1: the top twenty five. Yeah, been in the top twenty 722 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 1: five because Brock Purty, you know, and when Brock Purty leaves, 723 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,239 Speaker 1: they become a three, three and eight team. You know, 724 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 1: it's kind of wallass. Yeah, like the last player there 725 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,319 Speaker 1: been a long time. Wow, that's been a long time. 726 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:50,879 Speaker 1: All right, we gonna take our final break. We're gonna 727 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: come back.

This last game they 813 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:35,839 Speaker 1: didn't really have a problem stop in the run. But 814 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:37,959 Speaker 1: then again, Tampa Bay, as you said, Nick, they don't 815 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:40,879 Speaker 1: really want to run. Nope, they'd never committed to it 816 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 1: and uh, and so you really don't know whether it 817 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 1: was a factor of they got away from it or 818 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: they really couldn't do it so they got away from it. 819 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 1: What do you think of this rush defense now having 820 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: to face a team that runs the ball, not only 821 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 1: runs the ball, runs the ball stream. Well, I think 822 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,839 Speaker 1: their lowest output over the last six games that Rock 823 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,840 Speaker 1: Purdy has been starting has been a They've been over 824 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 1: one hundred fifty rush yards and every one of those 825 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 1: had a chunk play last week. Yeah, they're they're gonna 826 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 1: put up yards on the ground. What do you think 827 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,760 Speaker 1: of this rush defense. I'm a little worried about it, honestly, 828 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: because this is the best running team I think that 829 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,799 Speaker 1: they'll face even a couple of years ago when they 830 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: weren't very good and they beat him with Andy Dalton 831 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. Even that game, you could tell that 832 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,759 Speaker 1: they ran the ball well. They had uh most or 833 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 1: I forgot how to say his names. I mean they 834 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 1: had they you know whoever it is a running back. 835 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,360 Speaker 1: Now they've got McCaffrey. I think. I think what the 836 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 1: issue is is the Cowboys are going to have to 837 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: be very disciplined in their in their defense, and that's 838 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 1: something that we just haven't seen from the run defense, 839 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,280 Speaker 1: you know, standing in your lanes all that, even Micah 840 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,640 Speaker 1: Parsons included. I mean, like these guys are trying to 841 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 1: get after the quarterback and sometimes you sacrifice being out 842 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: of the lane. They haven't seen a fullback like this. 843 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a challenge. Yeah, this is gonna come 844 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 1: down to how quickly can you get off blocks because 845 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 1: what's going to happen is the running game is going 846 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 1: to be because of movement of the offensive line. They 847 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: I don't think They particularly want to run the ball 848 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 1: between the tackles with Christian McCaffrey. But he can he can't. 849 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:12,280 Speaker 1: Now you got to get ready, get ready for tackle movement, 850 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 1: guard movement, center movement, tight end movement. I mean fullback movement. 851 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 1: You know, that's that's where this game is gonna hinge 852 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 1: because what happens is they want to get the ball 853 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 1: in the outside. They're gonna toss it and they're gonna 854 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 1: play everybody downhill. And if you're if you're running sideways 855 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: fighting blocks, that's what and then the ball's gonna cut 856 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:36,839 Speaker 1: behind that. So to me, this is I don't think 857 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 1: that they want to run the ball inside on Hankins 858 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 1: and those guys. I don't think they do. I think, 859 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 1: you know, guys like Osa Gholston, you know, we'll see, 860 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:49,840 Speaker 1: we'll see. To me, I still might not dress those guys. 861 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 1: And I say this in a way. Up I need 862 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,320 Speaker 1: upfield guys. I need Gholsten up the field. I needs 863 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 1: up the field. I need I need everybody. Get them 864 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,000 Speaker 1: to stop. I mean the problem with the with the 865 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: fourty nine ring game, it's all about momentum. It's just 866 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 1: a big wave of bodies and what kills those types 867 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 1: of plays penetration, you know, getting blockers, getting knocked off, backs, 868 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 1: having some indecision there. To me, I'm trying to get 869 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 1: as many guys up the field and and and rally 870 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 1: to that point to where you can like trap them. 871 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: I know, negative plays. I think it's gonna be tough, 872 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 1: but to me, a gain of two or three is 873 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,839 Speaker 1: a big, big, big win in this because this team 874 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: is capable if they capture that corner and slam you 875 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 1: and get everybody blocked. We've seen big plays from this team. 876 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 1: It's gonna be about how many guys can you get 877 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 1: up the field and disrupt them wanting to run the 878 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:50,120 Speaker 1: ball on the outside of the perimeter. So last week, 879 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 1: um it was it was known all week that the 880 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 1: biggest issue I think McCarthy was having was ten dvs 881 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,800 Speaker 1: or ten d lineman that keeping them active, that was 882 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 1: the biggest one. And I think when you look at it, 883 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 1: Marquise Bell was active and they went with the ten dbs. 884 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,480 Speaker 1: I wonder in a game like this, you know, with 885 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,399 Speaker 1: a team that throws a ball more ay, because that's 886 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:15,879 Speaker 1: what it comes down to you at nine and nine 887 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,719 Speaker 1: as well, it's just the one guy that's where I 888 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 1: could see a Gallimore maybe over a Marquise Belle. But 889 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 1: you know, it could be something completely different. It may 890 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 1: not be them, but I could just see where maybe 891 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:31,400 Speaker 1: they go one more one more guy on the defensive line. 892 00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 1: But to me, one big thing, and it hasn't been 893 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 1: a tendency for them, but just keeping their cool, like 894 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:44,879 Speaker 1: not allowing themselves to get frustrated. You get you talk 895 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: about all the talent that the offense has and as 896 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: soon as they start making plays on them, because it's 897 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,359 Speaker 1: gonna happen, it's gonna happen. They're gonna make some big 898 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,320 Speaker 1: plays and all that, but making sure that your defensive 899 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 1: players just stay focused and not allow that frustrtiontion and 900 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: to start kicking in because we have seen I forget 901 00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:04,760 Speaker 1: which one was the most evident game. I can't remember, 902 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 1: but I remember there was one specific game where they 903 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 1: started doing the finger pointing And do you guys remember 904 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:15,319 Speaker 1: what game that was? Remember I can't remember what the 905 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 1: green Bay Green Bay that was the one green Bay 906 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 1: was running the ball? Well, yeah, they were, they were, 907 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: they were. That's a big problem. When he starts getting 908 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 1: to you mentally, it just it messes you up and 909 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: completely messages you up. So just making sure that everyone 910 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:32,839 Speaker 1: sticks to doing their own job, taking care of their 911 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 1: own business, and allowing themselves to not get frustrated. They 912 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,879 Speaker 1: can't get mad, but just don't let that frustration kick in. 913 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,640 Speaker 1: I would say to me, I'm gonna I'm gonna try 914 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 1: and make it where brock Purty beats me throwing the ball. 915 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 1: That's what I'm gonna do. I'm trying. I mean, infact, 916 00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 1: if if brock Purty is good enough to line up 917 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 1: and just keep throwing the ball underneath and all that, 918 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 1: this game is going to if you do not tackle, well, 919 00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,839 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say because I think San Francisco we'll 920 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:01,960 Speaker 1: talk about this tomorrow. I think San Francisco's got some 921 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 1: issues on defense in the secondary. I think there's I 922 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 1: think there's some throws to be made. Now can you 923 00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 1: can you control what's going on up front, But I 924 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,360 Speaker 1: think there's some corners on this defense you can attack. 925 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 1: And teams have attacked him, and I'm like I said, 926 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk to my coach buddies and get the 927 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,400 Speaker 1: scoop of how they attack these guys, and we'll talk 928 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 1: about that tomorrow. The touchdown last year the Deebo Samuel 929 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 1: had in the playoff game. He remember it was like 930 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 1: a reverse. Yeah, yeah, they had it kind of bottled 931 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:29,360 Speaker 1: up and the next thing, you know, he kind of 932 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 1: sneaks out and like like you said, like the terminator, 933 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 1: he sneaks out of the pack and he scores a touchdown. 934 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 1: And that was That was a play that stands out 935 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 1: to me. I think something at the end happened that 936 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 1: was weird, you know, like a played bad for half 937 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 1: the breast came in and and just like ran over. 938 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 1: If anything, Bill Vinovich is your official this weekend, and 939 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: of the four referees that are, he's the one that 940 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:54,839 Speaker 1: calls the least penalty. So I have a feeling they're 941 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 1: gonna let the players decide this one. You know, you 942 00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:59,319 Speaker 1: talk about that a lot, and I saw him. I 943 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: believe it that something I believe in my heart. That's 944 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,799 Speaker 1: and that's fine. But but I'm thinking this, A lot 945 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 1: of people are like, man, I hope they you know, 946 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 1: let him play. Yeah, they don't call a lot of penalties. 947 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 1: Is that a good thing? Because Micah Parsons gets like 948 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,279 Speaker 1: got a holding call the other day, right, Like he 949 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 1: gets like man handled every single game you know, and 950 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:21,680 Speaker 1: and and you know they choke him in the throat 951 00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:24,279 Speaker 1: and all this stuff. And I'm saying, maybe I want 952 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 1: them to call it a little bit, you know, I 953 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 1: don't know, I kind of I kind of look at 954 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 1: it this way. If they're not going to call it 955 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 1: on you against Mica, then Tyler Smith and McGovern and 956 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 1: Schultz Schultz could get away with that holding at the 957 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,360 Speaker 1: point of attack that we need to happen so the 958 00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,919 Speaker 1: ball can get outside and get a first down. If 959 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,799 Speaker 1: you're not calling it on us, by all means, let 960 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,399 Speaker 1: let Dalton Schultz hold all he can at the point 961 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 1: of attack. That's true, that's a good point. They have 962 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:50,919 Speaker 1: a badass too. And let's not forget he got hurt 963 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 1: in the game last year in the playoffs. He got 964 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 1: hurt in second quarter. Yeah, and I was like, oh good. 965 00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 1: You know, bad problems with these tight ends. Talking about 966 00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 1: that tomorrow real quick before we leave. Well, what would 967 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 1: you do you know the percentage between passing and rushing 968 00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 1: that they do? No, No, I can get that for 969 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:11,239 Speaker 1: you though. Yeah. I'm curious to see how often they 970 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:14,400 Speaker 1: run the ball versus just passing. It seems like they 971 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 1: read it seems like they run the ball. Yeah, I 972 00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,399 Speaker 1: don't know.
