So, but uh, we're gonna talk about 38 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: this quickly. Get past it. You came in camp. First 39 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: of all, this guy was first round pick. Tell us 40 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: about that first. I'm gonna let you do that.

OK, 43 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: how you got into this league, man, We're from it, 44 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,639 Speaker 1: and how you got into it? Attended the University of 45 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: North Carolina, red shirted, stayed all four and a half years. 46 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: UH had the potential to leave early with our coaching 47 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 1: staff switching over, but promised my parents I get my degree. 48 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: U twitched to a spread, no huddle, got down to 49 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: about two eighty, and I feel like it was pro 50 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: style the first few years. Got down to two eighty. 51 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: Showed I can move, I can still pull and move people, 52 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: but got out of space. UM. Fortunately got drafted in 53 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: the first round, seventh pick. UM go to the Arizona 54 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: Cardinals and it was a decently slow start for me, 55 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: but as a preseason's progressed. I playing some of my 56 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: best ball. H third preseason game, make it through about 57 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: the first half. The coach wasn't pleased with the offensive performance, 58 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: so he tells the starters to go back in and 59 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: that's when I break my leg. Break my leg the 60 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: third preseason game. UM it keeps me out my entire 61 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: rookie season and then from there. UH, it's been sort 62 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: of an injury riddle deal. And UH, this within the 63 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: past year, bounced around to a couple of teams, went 64 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: to New England. I was starting there touring my playing 65 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: a fashion and then I end up at Cleveland and 66 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: then now right now, and so what I'm trying to 67 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: get to now he was in he's in a he's 68 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: in a battle right now for for the for the 69 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: left guard spot. We can't reveal that to you do 70 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: the fact that you know Jason Garret got up football 71 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: season football, But man, glad to have you here, and 72 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: I wanted people to just know that little factor. What 73 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: I wanted to really talk about, Kurt was this guy 74 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: was one of the most highest rated guys coming out 75 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: of Carolina for he opens running in an open space, 76 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: getting on block to maintain it, and it kind of 77 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: slowed them down over the past few years due to 78 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: the injuries. Now, how do you feel, man, I see 79 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: sometime when you get into the second level, you get 80 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 1: the real quick then sometimes seems like you struggle it. 81 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 1: But do you do you still feel the effects of 82 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: the lingering of some of the injuries that you had. 83 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: I don't think that's the case. I think it's a 84 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: matter of just continuing to progress in the working to 85 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: understand just just finish the play, finish the block. You know, 86 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: sometimes it's not about not having the mentality to finish, 87 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: it's about positioning yourself so you can finish. If you're 88 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: glancing off with somebody or not on the right angle, 89 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: you can't finish them no matter how hard you try. 90 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: And you can push themself on whatever, but you're not 91 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: gonna finish them. So I feel like that's one of 92 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: the benefits here is getting that coaching and critiquing. One 93 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: of the big things that coach Pollock always says to me, 94 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: the footwork matters, The details matter. Is not street ball right, 95 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: and you know some people get offended, but I realized 96 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: that I'm seeing improvement and that's the biggest thing, just 97 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: to be able to do make it look the same. 98 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: And you know, when there's so much going on the 99 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: other side of the ball, just if you're doing the 100 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: same thing, you can handle whatever they're throwing at you. 101 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,239 Speaker 1: So that's my big thing, just really working on continue 102 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: to get in those positions so I can finish, Okay, 103 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: battling that guard. Lena got it, So, yes, center, is 104 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: that is that something new for you or you've done 105 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: it before in the past. I've done it briefly in 106 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: the past, right right. Uh did it one summer, I 107 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: believe twenty ten at UNC and I did pretty good 108 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: at it. But first game against LSU, first time I 109 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: ever playing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a load and I 110 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 1: don't know at that point if I was mentally ready 111 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 1: for it. So there are a couple of plays. I 112 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: put my left hand down on the ball so early. Um, 113 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 1: so they took me out for a little while, then 114 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: put me back in in the last quarter and I 115 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: played some great ball. But for the rest of the 116 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: season I was left guard, you know. So, I mean 117 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: they're on professional teams. I've done some snapping, but no, 118 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: not too much of it. Man, hey man, thank you 119 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 1: for having you great you're talking about coach Pollock and 120 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 1: some of the techniques and getting all that. You've been 121 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 1: in some different offensive line rooms, different teams. Have you 122 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: had it's different here? Have you had to learn new techniques? 123 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: How's it been like for you coming into this room. Uh, 124 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 1: you know a lot of people have their own techniques, 125 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: and um, I've just found that this in this system, 126 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: if you do what your coach, the other guys around you, 127 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna be doing what their coach, and you will 128 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: see the benefit of it. Um even something as small 129 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 1: as not rushing to get off a block on the 130 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: first level, if you fit it right, like you know, 131 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, you got to you gotta blow him up 132 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 1: off the ball, and then you gotta get to your 133 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: linebacker where it's here. It's patiently getting there violently, but patiently, 134 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 1: and then together you'll move him off the ball. You 135 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: don't need the necessary initial blow and then you can 136 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: be patient, let the linebacker the side and then come 137 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: off on it. So I mean, just some some little things. 138 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: That sounds hard to be patient an offensive line. How 139 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: are you patient on offensive line? It's just a matter 140 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: of standing your fit on the blocks and the moment 141 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: that you have to trigger and get off to the 142 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: second level. It's right now. You want to be right 143 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,239 Speaker 1: now and have the proper technique done them. See because 144 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: what he's saying in high school, and I use the 145 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: running back position in high school, a running back beat. 146 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 1: He's so much better than everybody. So he he know 147 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: the hole is on off the right tackles, but he 148 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: don't care if he don't see it right away. He 149 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: can go anywhere and stretch it. In college, you have 150 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: to kind of lean towars the hole a little bit more. 151 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: In the pros, you better be going towards the hole 152 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: because they thinking you're coming back. You jerked back all 153 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: of a sudden. You may cause them and going to 154 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: a spastic hole and all of a sudden, like, man, 155 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: why do you need why you didn't give us an opportunity? 156 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: Now you made that linebacker. Now they don't have a 157 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: decision on the linebacker. You made it for him. They 158 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: want to make a decision on that linebacker. They can 159 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: give you a good, proper lane. Best running backs going 160 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: to do that and help them look good. I feel 161 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: left out of that conversation. Lineman't go up, that's right, Yeah, 162 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: I mean, so where'd you grow up? Man? I grew 163 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: up on the East Coast. Woman to North Carolina. Wow, 164 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,719 Speaker 1: that's nice. Yeah, I love it. Yeah, gonna go back 165 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: there after football, Lord knows where I'll be.

Yeah, he was limited, 333 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: but I'm not speaking anything for him Noway, sir, the 334 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 1: only one's out from the Giants for Beckham and Keenan Robinson, 335 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: the linebacker. Yeah, it'll be interested to see if, hopefully 336 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 1: it'll come on the TV. It came on the TV 337 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: yesterday while we were on the air, um to see 338 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: if Beckham practices. He did not practice yesterday. So I 339 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: haven't heard any word. Have you seen anything, Curt If 340 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: he's I thought so, let me I don't think he did. 341 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: Let me double check. Okay, well you looked at you 342 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: look that up. Let's get into a couple of individual 343 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: players on the on the cowboy side, Beckham did not participate. 344 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,120 Speaker 1: Oh that changes things a little bit. He just makes 345 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 1: you worry a little bit. He'll he'll a gamer. I 346 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 1: think he'll show up. He'll be out there. Yeah, the 347 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: big dolls bark Man, Big dolls bar he popping at 348 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 1: the end of the chain right now. I'm serious. You 349 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 1: said something yesterday about a contract, you know what. I'm 350 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,360 Speaker 1: hoping that play a big part. And really I'm really 351 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: hoping it plays a big part, but not not in 352 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: a positive light. As if it plays in a positive light, 353 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: we could be a little bit of drama to look 354 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: forward to. No practice on Thursday, so I guess that'll 355 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: be a game time decision that'll drive some fantasy football 356 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: owners a little nuts. So let's get into individual players. 357 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: Let's start with with with the man Dak incredible year 358 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: last year. UM thirty six hundred yards, twenty three touchdowns, 359 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 1: four interceptions, two against the Giants, two against the Giants. 360 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 1: Fifty percent of his interceptions were against the one or 361 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 1: four point nine quarterback rating. I'm not expecting him to 362 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 1: have that great of a year that that to me 363 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: is one of the weirdest, craziest, most awesome things to 364 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 1: witness from a rookie quarterback ever. And I don't see 365 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: how he can match those numbers. You've got, you have 366 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 1: even more tape out on him, you have. You know, 367 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 1: they're they're gonna loosen up the offense a little bit, 368 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: I believe around him, and it's gonna create, you know, 369 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: opportunities for bigger plays, But I think it's also going 370 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,360 Speaker 1: to create opportunities for for more mistakes. I don't think 371 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna have a bad year by any means, But 372 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: what success for him. Is anything less than what he 373 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: did last year a failure? Or or does he have 374 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: to be better than last year for a second year 375 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: to be successful. We don't think, Kurt. I almost think 376 00:19:54,480 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: he has to win. As long as he's winning. Amen, Amen, 377 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: thank you, Kurt, thank you. That's gonna be his Nate's 378 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 1: over here throwing the holy water on Kurt. That's gonna 379 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 1: be how he's judged. I think so. Not stats losses. 380 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: You know, as long as he's not throwing every two 381 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 1: touchdowns the interception, now you don't you don't need that. 382 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 1: You don't need thirty five touchdowns sixteen interceptions. I mean, 383 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 1: you don't play too many raggedy games, but thirty five 384 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: touchdowns ten or less? You don't want to win despite 385 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 1: of him. Yeah, as long as he's solid, consistent. He 386 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 1: hates to turn and use the term bus driver. But 387 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: as long as he's not making a bunch of mistakes, 388 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 1: I mean not and wins and he's had a good year. 389 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: And how many games does he have to win for 390 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: this follow up sophomore season to be considered a success? 391 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: Does you have to win thirteen games? No games? No? No, 392 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 1: the league, the league, the league, automatically makes it where 393 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna be difficult the next year until you proving 394 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: that you're you're elite. He's just proving that he's good. 395 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's elite, Peyton Manning is elite. Uh. The guy 396 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: at uh the Saints even though they don't have enough 397 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: defense that he's elite. It's a difference now. Philip Rivers 398 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: to me, is elite. You know. They they do numbers 399 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: regardless of who's on their team. He this kid is 400 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: just good right now. Being interesting to see the situation 401 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 1: running back, how much it might affect him and how 402 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: he performs. Man, Kurt Man, you should you ain't played 403 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: no ball. He just listened to the show. Yes, And 404 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: that's what it's all about. Man, the things around him, 405 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: and I tell people to me, he's like Troy Troy. 406 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: Troy was not He's gonna go out of his way 407 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: not to throw interception. He was gonna get everybody involved. 408 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 1: He didn't change plays unless he truly had to because 409 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: he wasn't about the numbers and that and that's all 410 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: that matters, because the numbers will take care of herself. 411 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: In a passing league, the numbers were taken, how many 412 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: yards he threw for last year the beer uh three thousand, 413 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: six hundred and sixty seven, and he didn't and then 414 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 1: he didn't have more attempts he had. His averages chemps 415 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:38,360 Speaker 1: was way down compared to the league. Yeah, so uh, 416 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: he was efficient and he made it happen, and so 417 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:49,159 Speaker 1: uh his success is not just predicated on what he 418 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: can do. I grew with curtain and what other intelligent 419 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 1: people say. It's predicated on what zeke offensive line and 420 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 1: Kim and you know what, it really happen if we 421 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: can get some turnovers and he can go twenty yards 422 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: thirty yards or forty yards forty five and less yards 423 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 1: a couple of times, you know, say over a three 424 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: game period, if we can have that happen maybe four 425 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,880 Speaker 1: times where he just had to go forty five yards. 426 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: When a quarterback can go in the fielding hand it 427 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: off boomed in its flaxspat booming, hits twenty five yards 428 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: touch now, but the world opens up to him. Then 429 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: let's go on to deaz Dez. We'll go balls out 430 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 1: with dead. Let's go balls out with him and missus 431 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: Jones every time he called him and cost him a 432 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: little something. That's right. I love buddy. You know what, 433 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: I was a cash for more now. Two thousan twelve 434 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: he had thirteen hundred yards. Two thirteen, he had twelve 435 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,199 Speaker 1: hundred yards. Two fourteen, he had thirteen hundred yards. Twenty 436 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: fifteen he had four hundred and one. Two sixteen he 437 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: had seven hundred and ninety six. I don't feel like 438 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: Deaz has been completely healthy since two thousand and fourteen, 439 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:02,639 Speaker 1: and I feel like this year, I think he's back 440 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: one hundred percent healthy. I feel like he had back problems. 441 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:10,360 Speaker 1: I feel like he had. I don't think that back 442 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 1: issue he had whenever he landed weird. I guess I 443 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 1: don't remember who that was against a couple of years ago. 444 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,239 Speaker 1: I think that's been bothering him. I think he This 445 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: is just my opinion. I haven't talked to any doctors 446 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 1: or anything, but I feel like he's healthy this year, 447 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: and I think anything south of a thousand yards this 448 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: year with the running back situation with he's got some 449 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: help now. You know Beasley stepped up last year. You've 450 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: got witting, old, reliable, and you know you've got Terrence back, 451 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 1: You've got Bryce that can stretch the field. Anything. To me, 452 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 1: I'm expecting another thirteen hundred yards season out of death. 453 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: And that's my personal opinion. I think anything less than 454 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 1: a thousands of disappointment. Where do you, guys, Land and Kurt, 455 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: if you say for every one of these just win, 456 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: that's how you measure this is gonna be a boring 457 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:05,160 Speaker 1: game with and Dad's. I think Dad's is a better 458 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: route runner. I think he's more in tune with his 459 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: quarterback this year. Last year they were hurt, he was hurt, 460 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,439 Speaker 1: and so they never got to to love on one another. 461 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: This year here you you you see in practice way 462 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 1: they had a chance to connect and be consistent. Dad 463 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 1: to me seemed to have ran better routes and and 464 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: we saw that in camp a lot. And if you 465 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: run routes because this kid, unlike Tony, where Tony can 466 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: improvise a lot hand singers and look at you, this 467 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 1: kid demands that you you look at the coverage and uh. 468 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: And they seemed like Dad's is a little more in 469 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: tune to that, and he's running better routes. I mean, 470 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 1: I don't think everything is gonna be a nine route. 471 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 1: Let's go up in the air for it. I think 472 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: he's gonna be some you know, like we saw a 473 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:58,120 Speaker 1: slant during the preseason, so I mean, come on, let's 474 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 1: rock and roll. Now, I'm with you. Which rock and roll? 475 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: We talked about this before that Yeah, in the preseason 476 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 1: that back shoulder face, Yes, sir, he threw that though. 477 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: I think you could have got him to get that. Yeah. 478 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 1: I know, yo yo Joe. That's that's that's a new 479 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 1: that's a whole new toolbox that he has this year. Yeah, 480 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 1: and he had last years. What do you think, Kurt? 481 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: But coach talked about in his press conference today, they 482 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: asked him about Dez and he said the same thing. 483 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: I hate to cut you out. We want to know 484 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 1: what Kurt, thanks for getting well laying him. I want 485 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 1: to know what coach said. Well, he mentioned basically what 486 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: Nate said that, Um, he's healthy, He's had all offseason. 487 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: He was healthy all off season, was able to work, 488 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: and he's specifically able to work with Dak and build 489 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 1: up that um relationship there where they work better together. 490 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 1: So he's healthier and he's more in two in this quarterback. 491 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 1: I think a thousand yards season and ten touchdowns is 492 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 1: definitely doable. I think they need him to do that. 493 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: If he let's say, the first game. If he can 494 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: average a touchdown a game, and I'm just throwing something 495 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,439 Speaker 1: out here, don't hope with me to this. If he 496 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 1: can average a touchdown the game right around anywhere from 497 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 1: eighty five to one hundred and ten yards a game, 498 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: it's over. It's over. They already have to deal with 499 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: him in certain situations, you know, because they got the 500 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: Dad's rules on every team, and and and what this 501 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: game Jenkins, Gnoris Jenkins gonna tell us as Dad's learned anything, 502 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: because normally when Dad's get up against a top notch 503 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: upper epstelon corner, he tends to struggle because he gets 504 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,360 Speaker 1: into the mental battle. It's not that they stopping him. 505 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: Is they talking to him? He normally gets off into that. 506 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 1: That would tell you a lot, right, that would tell 507 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: you a lot. The Giants and yeah, Jenkins, he had 508 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 1: one catch for eight yards in the first game, right, 509 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: and one catch for ten yards in the second game. Yeah, 510 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: And now they give him help, they get jenkings up. Now. 511 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: They don't ever think, you know, I used to be 512 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:13,439 Speaker 1: like when when Mike used to play and we used 513 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: to go up to filling they had this big long 514 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 1: corner and I liked leeve. Mike, you know, wow, man, 515 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: your numbers ain't what Nate. They're giving him help in 516 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: the story. I'm like, well, help, what do you mean? 517 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 1: Help you? Mike Irving? You know what I'm saying. But 518 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: when when you look at the film and you see 519 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 1: that safety just easing over there, that quarterback seeing that too, 520 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: he and the quarterback is going somewhere else? How much 521 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: did You've probably been asked this before, but do you 522 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: see a lot of that Irving and das that inspirational 523 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: type raw rock guy on the team. He's learning, See, 524 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: Mike came a little more mature and how to deal 525 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 1: with people than Dad's. Dad's his background. Dad's never had 526 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: to deal with other grown men people that's on his level. 527 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: And so I think when you know he getting heighted 528 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: custom he you know, he he motivated himself, but he's 529 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: also trying to motivate others.

Reminds me of a guy 555 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: that used to be really passionate and used to fight 556 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: all the time as a kid and had raw talent. 557 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: And then when he realized that he's a bad enough 558 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: man that he doesn't have to fight anymore, that I 559 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: don't have to constantly prove himself, doesn't have to prove himself. 560 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: He knows who he is. It's calm, right, he's calmed, 561 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: and you know, usually the quietest one in the rooms, 562 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: the baddest one. Yeah, I feel like Daz is like, Okay, 563 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: don't sleep on me this year. Just watch. I'm gonna 564 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: show you. I'm not gonna tell you about it. Just watch. 565 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: He's leaner. You know, he leaned out, looks good. He's 566 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: leaned out and like he'd done drunk some vinegan water man. 567 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: It took all the fat out of his body, and 568 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 1: he's relied out, relaxed. You know. Mike Irveys looked like 569 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: dried out. Just look, Mike, Mike, he looked like old 570 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: crispy piece of bacon. Let's say. In the wide receiver category, 571 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: Terrence Williams two thousand, fourteen, let's go twenty thirteen. His 572 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: uh rookie year, seven hundred and thirty six yards, twenty fourteen, 573 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: six hundred and twenty one yards, twenty fifteen, eight hundred 574 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: and forty yards and a lot of people thought last 575 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: year was going to be his breakout year. He was 576 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: gonna be a legit, solid one two punch with Deaz 577 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: and he regretted a little bit. He had five hundred 578 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 1: ninety four yards, He had fewer receptions than he did 579 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: the year before. Where does he fit in? Does he? 580 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: I look and this is just my opinion of Nate. 581 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 1: You tell me what you think. You've watched a lot 582 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,719 Speaker 1: of film. I look for Bryce to step up and 583 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: challenge him for that number two spot at some point 584 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 1: in the year. They're a little bit different of a receiver. 585 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: I know that. I know Bryce is a little bit 586 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: more of a speech or Terrence is a little bit 587 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: more of a possession. Guy talked about it the other day. 588 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: Bryce just needs to catch the ball. If he puts 589 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: it together and starts catching the ball. Is Terrence stay 590 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: your number two? Or does Bryce have a chance to 591 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 1: move into that role? Or they two completely different receivers 592 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: and they are what they are. And see, I was 593 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: getting ready to say when you said, what do we 594 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: thought about about Terrence? And the first thing I want 595 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: to say, tell me how good Bryce Butler does. And 596 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 1: that's gonna keep Terrence right where he needs to be 597 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: on edge and ready to go. You can like, I 598 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 1: can like you to death, I can love you to death, 599 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: but man, you compete for the same position and your 600 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: game is stepped up. I know mine got to step up. 601 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: It's just how it go. And you haven't really heard 602 00:32:56,360 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: a lot about Terrence in camp or or priests Eason. 603 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: He's just been catching the ball, doing his thing, being consistent, 604 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: and that's not a bad thing being heard from. I 605 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: don't think in this offense he's the number two receiver. 606 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: But to me he's the third or fourth option. I mean, 607 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: you've got Beasley written and Beasley, they're they're really going 608 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,959 Speaker 1: to be more of the key components in the offense. 609 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 1: I think. And you know Williams Campole in five or 610 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 1: seven hundred yards and yeah, you know, yeah, if he 611 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 1: could five four had four touchdowns last year, he had 612 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: eight in twenty fourteen. If he got eight touchdowns this year, 613 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:33,719 Speaker 1: I mean, that's to me, that's a great I mean, 614 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: the averaging about might have had something to do with 615 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 1: the transition from Romo to Dak. Also, I think Romo 616 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 1: looked Terrence is way more. Uh just went through that 617 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: progression to his point when he caught that ball in 618 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 1: Seattle and drug his toes on that four down. Romo's like, 619 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: that's my guy, Yeah, let's go throwing the ball. Terrence 620 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: has definitely shown flashes of some really great plays. And 621 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: Terrence caught Romo's final touchdown pass last year. Oh nice 622 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: little piece of trivias? Is that last year? Last year? 623 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 1: Did he play last year that one? That one game 624 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: pre season? Was that Philly? Right? Yes, he came in. 625 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: Oh that's right at the end of the very okay, 626 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: yeah it was you're right. Sorry, Yeah, it's great. That's 627 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 1: a great that's a great trivia point, great trivia point. 628 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: I was like, what what I was thinking about him 629 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: being hurt? I was like, he got hurt before the 630 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: season started. Speed. Let's let's talk about Bryce uh twoy thirteen. 631 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 1: His rookie season, he had one hundred and three one 632 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: hundred three yards twenty fourteen two hundred and eighty uh 633 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: skipped to twenty fifteen two hundred and fifty eight yards 634 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 1: last year two hundred nineteen yards on sixteen receptions. What 635 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,359 Speaker 1: do you guys look for him to contribute this year? 636 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 1: And it goes back to what Nate said, can he 637 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,439 Speaker 1: catch the ball. Can he hang on to the ball? 638 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 1: Is he the fastest guy among that group? When we 639 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: were at camp, we talked to a lot of the 640 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 1: guys and it was all my most unanimous that he 641 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 1: was one of, if not the fastest guy on the 642 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,839 Speaker 1: team offense or defense. Can he do more than just 643 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 1: sprint down the field on the ball? I think he can. 644 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 1: Is in immediate routes, middle to long routes that I 645 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: think he can he could run. I don't think the 646 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,320 Speaker 1: guys that you you know, want to run the short 647 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: routes because he's not precise in that dude to the fact, 648 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: maybe because he's tall, or I don't know if he 649 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 1: works on it enough. But uh like, like, like we said, 650 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:35,439 Speaker 1: Bryce thirty five catches forty maybe at the best, same 651 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 1: with him, you know, twenty five thirty catches. Take advantage 652 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 1: of all of them, and he'll average around seventeen yards 653 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 1: to catch if he take advantage of all of him. Yeah. 654 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: He had three touchdowns last season, Yeah, get that from 655 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 1: him again, and or brought up, dropped one or two. 656 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 1: Should have had a couple more. That's been kind of 657 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 1: his um criticism is he's, like you all said, he's 658 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: hang on the ball. If he does that, Man, where 659 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 1: all good things? Where are all these balls come from? 660 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:09,399 Speaker 1: We got all these guys balls out balls out balls 661 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 1: out right, twenty five balls, twenty balls, thirty five balls. Yeah, 662 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 1: that's about right for these guys, you know, because Dad's 663 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 1: gonna see the ball of them should you know. But 664 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 1: it's gonna be games with Dad's is really getting double team, 665 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: so he won't see maybe four or five balls, and 666 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,839 Speaker 1: that's where they can load up. You know, Beasily gonna 667 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: get his Because I tell people I've said it from 668 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 1: the beginning. If Dad's one hundred percent healthy during the season, 669 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 1: I mean one hundred percent, rolling cold, Beasley gonna be 670 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: lights out because who do you cover? You're gonna cover dads? 671 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,720 Speaker 1: You gotta put a guy on Terrence who covers Beasley? 672 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,479 Speaker 1: That's gonna be a cold bloody killer there. And aren't 673 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,360 Speaker 1: we hoping that Zeke's gonna get more involved in the 674 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 1: passing game? No, hope, my friend, you know, hope you 675 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 1: weren't at camp, but he he was. He looked like 676 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: he looked like a wide out at camp. Some of 677 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: the catches he was making over the shoulder, like straight 678 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:13,800 Speaker 1: over the back. Look at I mean it was because 679 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: you look back at the early nineties and Emmett had 680 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: a ton of receptions and see you know that Jason 681 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 1: would like to go back to that kind of thing. Yeah, 682 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,880 Speaker 1: I mean Jayson would like to go back to the 683 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 1: Emmett that would would like to go back to that 684 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: using that kind of skill set with a running back. 685 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,280 Speaker 1: I was like, wouldn't you're looking at how many plays 686 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 1: a game? You're looking at a minimum sixty five on 687 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: this offense here, so six to five? Yeah, And I said, 688 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 1: we have her sixty to plays a game, and uh, 689 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 1: you play sixty man, boys, there's a lot of plays. 690 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 1: There's a lot of plays. Real quickly, go to break, 691 00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 1: let's move to the defensive side of the ball. Only 692 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 1: a couple of guys here. I wanted to get your 693 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 1: your opinions on them. We've talked about both of them 694 00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:00,160 Speaker 1: before on the show. Tyrone Crawford. I think it we 695 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,760 Speaker 1: all kind of agree if he stays healthy that that's 696 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: the main factor with him. Um, he's been deemed up 697 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 1: you know for a couple of years now. If he 698 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 1: stays healthy, what what is a successful year for him? 699 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: Is it? Is it? Seven eight sacks? I think he 700 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 1: can't get that many. I think he can if he's healthy. 701 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: You know, he like like you said the other days, 702 00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: the King of almost almost got you true. I've always 703 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,320 Speaker 1: got the impression that in a perfect world that cowboys 704 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 1: would rather have him inside. And so is he a 705 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: true defensive end that can beat the guy on the 706 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 1: on the edge regularly? Well that I'm predicating a lot 707 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:44,839 Speaker 1: off of Paya and Malik if these guys an getting 708 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:49,320 Speaker 1: the pressure. I know we missed to real mcclaim because 709 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:53,840 Speaker 1: he allowed Malik to flourish last year at a three technique. 710 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 1: But if Pie can come in and get that same 711 00:38:56,400 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: type pressure and demand that that center has to deal 712 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 1: with him. Or we got David Irvin and pass the 713 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: situations when he get back, you know that they have 714 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 1: to deal with these dudes. Yeah, because the quarterbacks they 715 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 1: can't go move up in the pocket. They can't step 716 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,240 Speaker 1: up in the pocket. When you can't step in the pocket, 717 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: that that gives you the outside guys a chance to 718 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,800 Speaker 1: make their money. Yeah, and watch out for Malik because 719 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: every guy we had on the show pretty much, I 720 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 1: think there are three or four guys who's Who's who 721 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: surprised you the most at camp three or four guys, 722 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: Malik Malik's really impressed me during camp. That's that's good 723 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 1: because he was impressed last year. Yeah, or at the 724 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: end of the year, especially last one before we go 725 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 1: to break DeMarcus Lawrence. What are we expecting out of him? 726 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 1: Ten sacks? He's got to get ten, doesn't he? I 727 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,439 Speaker 1: don't know. I know he's gotten six or seven before. 728 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: So well, I think he's a great pass for from 729 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,840 Speaker 1: the left side. But they got him started at the write, 730 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: you know, so between him and been a male y 731 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 1: and the young guy. So why do you think he's 732 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 1: better on the left? I just see him rush better 733 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 1: from that side. Now he gets the quality of the 734 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 1: tackle n is. Now, it's the quality of what he does. 735 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 1: He seems more fluid coming from the side. Think you 736 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 1: think about how you talk on the phone. Do you 737 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,319 Speaker 1: talk on your left here or you're right here? Because 738 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 1: one's more natural. Yeah, coming around one end, you feel 739 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 1: more comfort. See a left defensive end in college. I 740 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: don't know what he was. I'm not sure, you know, 741 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:34,880 Speaker 1: but he just looked better. And maybe because that's Tyrone 742 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 1: versus Lyle sus, I could have a little bit. Yeah. 743 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 1: Two two fifteen, he had eight sacks, so at least 744 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,840 Speaker 1: what he had in twenty fifteen, if not more, is 745 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:54,280 Speaker 1: what you're saying, double digits, Kurt, Kurt's throwing down double digits. 746 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,760 Speaker 1: Let's pay some bills, take a break when we get back. 747 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 1: What is success for this team record wise?

I respect Andrew Reid. I like him. 805 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:07,759 Speaker 1: I think you should have never leved Philadelphia, but I 806 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,719 Speaker 1: understand something. You need to change. A lot of things 807 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 1: went on personally in his life he needed to change. 808 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 1: I like what he does. He maximized. He maximizes his 809 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 1: player's ability. Uh. I hate the Patriots, but I love winners. Yeah. 810 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:29,520 Speaker 1: I hate the Patriot of them because they ain't the Cowboys. 811 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 1: I heard, Uh, Roger Goodell is going to be at 812 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:38,360 Speaker 1: the Patriots game where they're unveiling the Super Bowl banner 813 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:41,279 Speaker 1: and all that stuff. I wonder how that's gonna go over. 814 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 1: You know what? You know? Wow? The commissioner man, I 815 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: mean the deals, the sponsorships that he bring in, and 816 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: then the way he treats the players that helped bring 817 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,799 Speaker 1: in all this type stuff. I just it's kind of hard. 818 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 1: F mean, you know, you notice I don't ever verbally 819 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,800 Speaker 1: attack him.

You know, he's he's still an authority. 822 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 1: But well, it's just hard. He's probably not going to 823 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame like Pete Roselle did. Well you 824 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:19,480 Speaker 1: know what if he'll probably go as a visitor. It's 825 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:24,720 Speaker 1: just like, you know, that's it. That's such an interesting 826 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:30,440 Speaker 1: dynamic because he works for the owners, but yet it 827 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:32,840 Speaker 1: seems like he butts heads a lot with the owners. 828 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,359 Speaker 1: But he made he's made them so much money since 829 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:39,080 Speaker 1: he's been the commissioner. It's hard if you're an owner 830 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 1: to you know, when you look at him, Oh man, 831 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: you know they're renegotiating his contract and that, Yeah, I 832 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:49,439 Speaker 1: think they already does where do you He's like, where 833 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 1: do you sign? They're like, hey, you're gonna he sign 834 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:53,800 Speaker 1: this for you make us some mo money. We have 835 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:56,239 Speaker 1: to face someone such an interesting He got danged a 836 00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 1: little bit by Craft last year. Bradford's owner. He might 837 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 1: good thing this year Bud Jerry. Those are maybe the 838 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 1: two most powerful owners in the Morrows, the Rooney's the Joneses. 839 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 1: And he's part of the concussion scandal. I mean, I 840 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 1: think that was from Taglio Boo to Goodell that era. 841 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,399 Speaker 1: So that's not going to be good for him, just 842 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 1: interesting dynamic all the way around. Let's talk about what 843 00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:25,359 Speaker 1: a success for the Cowboys? What do they have to do? 844 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:27,080 Speaker 1: And I think this is a this is kind of 845 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 1: a twofold question. One is what are the expectations of 846 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 1: the fans? What do you have to do? What do 847 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:39,399 Speaker 1: you have to achieve to be successful in the eyes 848 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 1: of the fans? And then what do you have to 849 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:46,799 Speaker 1: be kind of from an an analytical standpoint to be successful? 850 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,920 Speaker 1: And I think you definitely have to make it to 851 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:54,440 Speaker 1: the playoffs to be both of those. I think depending 852 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 1: on how you make it to the playoffs, yeah, I 853 00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 1: think you need to win at least one game in 854 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 1: the playoffs for the fans to think somewhat successful NFC championship. 855 00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 1: So so what was the question for the fans? I 856 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:12,240 Speaker 1: think there's two different standards. There's a there's a fan standard, 857 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,000 Speaker 1: are what are what are? They're gonna be disappointed if 858 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 1: you don't win the Super Bowl either way around. But 859 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,400 Speaker 1: I feel like even though you lost the first playoff 860 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:22,840 Speaker 1: game you played last year, last year, I felt like 861 00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:26,400 Speaker 1: the fans were happy and satisfied because you had zero 862 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 1: expectation when the season started. You were coming in with 863 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback, your franchise quarterback went down, All hope 864 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,759 Speaker 1: was lost, you were praying for eight and eight. You 865 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: wind up making it, getting the first round by anything 866 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:41,839 Speaker 1: after that's just gravy. So I feel like the fans 867 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:46,319 Speaker 1: expectations last year were way above and beyond anything they 868 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 1: could have expected. I feel like this year, you've got 869 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,760 Speaker 1: to win at least one playoff game, and probably depending 870 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:56,399 Speaker 1: on how you lose in the playoffs, whether the fans 871 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 1: are disappointed or not. Well, I don't know what the 872 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:03,840 Speaker 1: final thing will be, you know, but uh, that's a 873 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:07,200 Speaker 1: good question. Tomorrow. You know, we'll let some of the 874 00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 1: fans answer that one. Huh, it's good, you know. Yeah, 875 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,040 Speaker 1: we'll yeah, we'll bring this back to Mars. We take 876 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:15,319 Speaker 1: some can we take some calls tomorrow. Man, We'll let 877 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 1: some fans answer that. But you know, Kurt, I mean, 878 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:22,919 Speaker 1: you're a fan of the Cowboys. I mean, what's your inspectations, baby, 879 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: we want to hear from YouTube General Patton, Well, yeah, 880 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:28,960 Speaker 1: I want them to make at least the NFC Championship. 881 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:32,319 Speaker 1: We've seen this up and down. They have a good 882 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,440 Speaker 1: year and then they suck and you know, they make 883 00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I mean, I mean strong for Kurt to 884 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,160 Speaker 1: use that word. Last two times they made the playoffs, 885 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,360 Speaker 1: they've been awful the next year just because the injuries 886 00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 1: or whatever. So they gotta get back into the playoffs. 887 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 1: They gotta advance. They got to win a game or two. 888 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,720 Speaker 1: You know, of course the super Bowl everyone's goal and dream. 889 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 1: But I think anything less than a victory or two 890 00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 1: in the playoffs is gonna be a disappointment to fans 891 00:48:57,680 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 1: because we've been here before. We want to take that 892 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 1: next Patton. Yeah, now I agree with that, and I 893 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:07,399 Speaker 1: think the I think if they don't do that, if 894 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,640 Speaker 1: it has something, if Zeke end up ends up having 895 00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 1: to serve six games and that has something to do 896 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:15,400 Speaker 1: with it, I think people will be more understanding. But 897 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 1: when you go thirteen and three and have home field 898 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,120 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, and you go one and done like 899 00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,800 Speaker 1: they did last year, like they had done with Romo 900 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:27,719 Speaker 1: in two thousand and seven, you know, it's been a 901 00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 1: long time since they've made a run deep into the playoffs. 902 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,239 Speaker 1: And the reason you stuck with Dak last year and 903 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,239 Speaker 1: didn't turn it back over to Romo as you thought, 904 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,239 Speaker 1: this is the next step, and so it's time to 905 00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 1: start stepping. I agree. You have you have one of 906 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:46,160 Speaker 1: the best receivers in the game. You have one of, 907 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,440 Speaker 1: if not the best running backs in the game. You 908 00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:50,880 Speaker 1: have one of the best quarterbacks in the game. You 909 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:52,640 Speaker 1: still have one of it might be one of the oldest, 910 00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 1: but one of the best tight ends in the game, 911 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:56,279 Speaker 1: one of the best slot receivers in the game, and 912 00:49:56,400 --> 00:50:01,480 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley. If you can best offense, there's no excuses 913 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,640 Speaker 1: on offense. You know, they're like, what's your excuse. You've 914 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:08,320 Speaker 1: got one of, if not the best, at every critical 915 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:12,440 Speaker 1: position on offense. It comes down to me. The defense. 916 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 1: If you can get any kind of push out of 917 00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 1: your your your front seven, you need to top fifteen defense. 918 00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,440 Speaker 1: There you go in you're yea, they get a major category. 919 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,239 Speaker 1: You need a top fifteen defense. Yeah, they don't, and 920 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:26,359 Speaker 1: I don't. They have to be good, you know, just 921 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:31,279 Speaker 1: decent even yeah, turnovers. But my my my issue is, 922 00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:34,680 Speaker 1: well I'm a little bit different. I don't care how 923 00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:38,759 Speaker 1: to get in the playoffs, wild card winning. I do 924 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 1: not care. Just get there when you when you The 925 00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 1: challenge for them is they ex stressed on defense. Uh, 926 00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:51,640 Speaker 1: you're playing a first praise schedule, and people say, yeah, 927 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,400 Speaker 1: they playing a first prase schedule, and we don't know 928 00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:55,879 Speaker 1: what the defense is gonna do, and we know they're 929 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,360 Speaker 1: gonna be stressed in the secondary to these kids grow up, 930 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 1: and we're hoping that see, because Nolan Carroll, you know, 931 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:07,680 Speaker 1: he's okay. I mean, it ain't like we got war 932 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:10,320 Speaker 1: or somebody from from from Denver, like, oh man, we 933 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 1: got to row a ball, you know, Na, we got 934 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:16,840 Speaker 1: Nolan Carroll. And I'm not saying that a change of 935 00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:18,719 Speaker 1: scenery is not good for him, and it may it 936 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:21,040 Speaker 1: may take him to the next level. We know that 937 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:23,400 Speaker 1: Scandrick can play, and he's full of health, and it 938 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,520 Speaker 1: made some good plays doing the deal. You know, Uh, 939 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:31,760 Speaker 1: Brown missed some time, so we're gonna be challenged Tyron 940 00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 1: Crawford and so I don't care how they get in 941 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:38,719 Speaker 1: the playoffs, just get in. And then by that time 942 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,040 Speaker 1: these kids have been on growed up, this defense've been 943 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:44,120 Speaker 1: on jail office line will know exactly who we are 944 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:48,480 Speaker 1: bar an injury and and uh and then and to me, 945 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:53,200 Speaker 1: once the defense grow up, and if we do lose Zeke, 946 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:56,839 Speaker 1: it don't matter to me. Then but if the if 947 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 1: the defense don't grow up and we lose Zeke. You 948 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:04,560 Speaker 1: look and you mentioned, you mentioned the schedule that that's 949 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:06,759 Speaker 1: this schedule is no joke. Well, talk to us about it. 950 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:08,800 Speaker 1: Night Beer talked to us about the schu schedule is 951 00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:11,759 Speaker 1: no joke. Talk to us and you said they're no joke. 952 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,319 Speaker 1: Run it down to joke. Well, okay, so you know 953 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 1: they can't. They come out with the power rankings every week. 954 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 1: Well who how they got his rank? Everybody has us 955 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:23,920 Speaker 1: around six to eight. Okay. The teams that they have 956 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:28,880 Speaker 1: above us, the majority of them are on our schedule. Um, 957 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:31,000 Speaker 1: just pulling up SI here they have the Patriots rank 958 00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:34,279 Speaker 1: number one, the Packers number two, Steelers number three, the 959 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 1: Falcons number four, Seahawks at five, Cowboys at six, and 960 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:43,720 Speaker 1: then Kansas City behind them, Raiders behind them, Giants behind them. 961 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,400 Speaker 1: I was listening to radio show to day it was 962 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:50,839 Speaker 1: brought to my attention, and this is the truth. It's 963 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 1: two teams that everybody's expecting a lot of and the 964 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:58,279 Speaker 1: offensive lines are not very good. That's the Giants and 965 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:04,800 Speaker 1: that's Seattle. I'm not kidding that. They ain't making no sense? 966 00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:07,360 Speaker 1: Are they basing that solely off what they think the 967 00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:12,400 Speaker 1: defense they have to carry out. They're thinking that if 968 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:15,120 Speaker 1: you score twenty one point, twenty four points, we got you. 969 00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:18,080 Speaker 1: We can hold with teams down to twenty one. They 970 00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 1: they really believe that we'll see you. Man. It's almost 971 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 1: the opposite of this team. If if the defense is 972 00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:27,840 Speaker 1: just decent, your offense should be able to carry you. 973 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,720 Speaker 1: If your offense they're thinking, if the offense is just decent, 974 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,640 Speaker 1: can get us twenty one points. The defense can shut 975 00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,319 Speaker 1: down the offense and carry us. But see that, that's 976 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 1: where I'm That's where you know. I told people last year, 977 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:44,920 Speaker 1: and I tell you you got to have a dominant 978 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:49,080 Speaker 1: defense at least six times during the year. You got 979 00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:52,440 Speaker 1: to because teams are going to equal you offensively. What 980 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 1: travels is defense. And in the league today, where three 981 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:03,200 Speaker 1: points is a victor and where a situation of football 982 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:06,960 Speaker 1: is key coming down to stretch, we didn't answer that bill, 983 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,400 Speaker 1: and that killed us against Green Bay. People said, well, 984 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 1: that's when that was a hell merry type play. But 985 00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 1: guess what who went to the next round? Who made 986 00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:17,439 Speaker 1: the play? Yeah, and who went to the next round. 987 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:20,319 Speaker 1: It wasn't a Dallas Cowboys, it was it was Green 988 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:24,520 Speaker 1: Bay Packers speaking in the next round, There any scenario 989 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:29,200 Speaker 1: this year that coach Garrett's job is not safe. I 990 00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 1: don't even think that way. I really don't. I don't. 991 00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:35,719 Speaker 1: I don't even think that way. You're borrowing trouble on 992 00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:38,400 Speaker 1: that one, you know. I just I'm in there, Douglas. 993 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:41,239 Speaker 1: That's why I said it. So you'd have an opinion. Hey, 994 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 1: be on time, Kurt, you want to you're asking me. 995 00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,919 Speaker 1: It is hard to imagine, I mean things, It's hard 996 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:55,759 Speaker 1: to imagine that the Joneses would sour on Jason. Yeah, 997 00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 1: I guess that could have worded in a different way. 998 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:01,239 Speaker 1: Has he earned enough trusb us with this team and 999 00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:04,000 Speaker 1: he's finally seems like he's built this team or helped 1000 00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 1: build this team with what he calls the right kind 1001 00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:10,680 Speaker 1: of guys, and they've built it with you know, offensive 1002 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:16,160 Speaker 1: line up front first. This city, they sing it unless 1003 00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:19,359 Speaker 1: he loses the team in some way, if they turn 1004 00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 1: on him. I'm just saying if he if he misses 1005 00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:24,279 Speaker 1: the player, if this team misses the playoffs, if he 1006 00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:27,160 Speaker 1: goes two and fourteen or whatever, that you don't have 1007 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 1: the hot seat for sure. But it's gonna have to 1008 00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:32,160 Speaker 1: be some things that go totally wrong. And that's and 1009 00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:36,839 Speaker 1: and and see me. I've been looking at it like, wow, man, 1010 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 1: we really concrete at our right tackle, if we really 1011 00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:44,040 Speaker 1: sided at our left guard. Last year, we down the defense, 1012 00:55:44,080 --> 00:55:45,840 Speaker 1: we talked about him. We said the offense had to 1013 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 1: score eighty points a game. Our defense played above and beyond. 1014 00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:53,040 Speaker 1: Once again, that is the challenge that we are ignoring 1015 00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:56,319 Speaker 1: as a as a cowboy nation. We're ignoring. We're gonna 1016 00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:58,920 Speaker 1: take for granted that Rob Marinelli gonna run on the 1017 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 1: field and play all the level position. It ain't happening it. Yeah, 1018 00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 1: something would have to happen that's within Jason's control. That's 1019 00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:12,319 Speaker 1: horrible because it's hard and it's hard to imagine that 1020 00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:15,200 Speaker 1: anything like that would happen because he he I mean, 1021 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 1: I think he's a good head coach. I think he's 1022 00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:20,560 Speaker 1: good at what he does, and he's got a talented team. 1023 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,520 Speaker 1: It's it could go that you could have a catastrophic 1024 00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:27,399 Speaker 1: season with things out of his control. And I think 1025 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,720 Speaker 1: he's safe and I just wouldn't predict that things within 1026 00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:33,920 Speaker 1: his control would go bad. Even in twenty fifteen when 1027 00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:35,799 Speaker 1: there were four and twelve, I don't think Jason ever 1028 00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:40,399 Speaker 1: lost the room or was no, So I don't think 1029 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:42,319 Speaker 1: he's I agree, and he's about as safe as any 1030 00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:45,200 Speaker 1: coach out there. Yeah, And it seems like one thing 1031 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,200 Speaker 1: that this team is it's consistent. And I think that's 1032 00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:53,440 Speaker 1: got a lot to do with um Garrett's message and 1033 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 1: the way that he's done it. And what I mean 1034 00:56:55,000 --> 00:57:03,200 Speaker 1: by consistent isn't exactly exactly, but it's there's finally some 1035 00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 1: some continuity with this. It's the show's over. I've lost 1036 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 1: control of the room, have lost control of the room. 1037 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 1: Let's do this, fellas tomorrow when we come back. Why 1038 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:19,880 Speaker 1: don't we come back. Let's let's take some calls to yes, yep, 1039 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 1: we can do it, and then let's all break down 1040 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:24,320 Speaker 1: what we think this team's record is going to be 1041 00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 1: and how they're gonna finish in the division, and what 1042 00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:30,240 Speaker 1: we think their season is going to be. That'll be 1043 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 1: a fun little game. Yes, that worked for you boys? Yeah?
