0:01:01.240 --> 0:01:04.679
<v Speaker 1>to me a few years ago. And I behind me,

0:01:05.160 --> 0:01:09.480
<v Speaker 1>I've got the Christmas tree still lit because it is

0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:13.680
<v Speaker 1>a victory Monday. So I just liked so we liked

0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:16.080
<v Speaker 1>the power that was. I thought that was, oh you

0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:20.880
<v Speaker 1>flowers built. I thought those were oh you flowers. Well

0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 1>they are speaking of them. They arrived tomorrow for the

0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:26.360
<v Speaker 1>good Year. About the bow Classic on a Wednesday, want

0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:30.560
<v Speaker 1>a great week to be alive and the Cowboys staying

0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:35.080
<v Speaker 1>alive in the NFCS. Thank you very much you Carolina

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:40.479
<v Speaker 1>Panthers and former Baylor coach Matt Rule Mickey victory Monday

0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:45.040
<v Speaker 1>three right, try three in a row. We haven't had

0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:47.640
<v Speaker 1>many of these staying alive. It sounds like it should

0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:52.160
<v Speaker 1>be a hit song for a movie, right and uh,

0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:56.640
<v Speaker 1>and it's a December to it's a december to remember,

0:01:56.840 --> 0:02:01.560
<v Speaker 1>as far as Jerry Jones's concerned. So fire the Cowboys.

0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:06.560
<v Speaker 1>What the Cowboys might be believe it or not? The

0:02:06.880 --> 0:02:11.480
<v Speaker 1>hottest team in football right now? Can you believe that

0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:15.360
<v Speaker 1>whether we won, uh for three in a row? Right,

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:19.480
<v Speaker 1>three in a rows of Buffalo does tonight four out

0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:22.960
<v Speaker 1>of six? Yes, I think Buffalo's got the street guard.

0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Come on, man, I mean, let's let's just think about that.

0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:30.560
<v Speaker 1>All the teams that were highly talented they were at

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:35.280
<v Speaker 1>mid season, all the teams just even two weeks ago. Oh,

0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:37.080
<v Speaker 1>there are a lot for the playoffs. And these are

0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 1>the guys we have to watch out for. The Browns

0:02:39.400 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 1>this and and you got all these teams and everybody's

0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:44.400
<v Speaker 1>looking at Pittsburgh Steelers. You know they're gonna be the

0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:48.040
<v Speaker 1>team to be all of a sudden, they're all struggling.

0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:53.160
<v Speaker 1>And the Cowboys right now, except for the Casey Chiefs

0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:57.040
<v Speaker 1>and Buffalo. If I'm not listening, even the Bears. I

0:02:57.160 --> 0:03:00.239
<v Speaker 1>think we were like as far as consistency the last

0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:03.400
<v Speaker 1>few weeks, we're the top four teams in the NFL.

0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:10.000
<v Speaker 1>And how about that end considering too, by the way,

0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:14.639
<v Speaker 1>meaning ten. How about how about the other thing? When

0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 1>people look at the teams the Cowboys have played did

0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:24.040
<v Speaker 1>in this three game winning streak, Cincinnati, San Francisco and Philadelphia. Now, okay,

0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:28.760
<v Speaker 1>how about this? This bodes very well for Sunday Night

0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:34.120
<v Speaker 1>in Philadelphia because two weeks ago, the Cowboys beat the Bengals.

0:03:34.200 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 1>What the Bengals do? The following week they knocked off

0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:41.480
<v Speaker 1>the Pittsburgh They beat not they not only one? They

0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:45.960
<v Speaker 1>won over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Okay, last week, what did

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:48.880
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys do? They beat the Niners? What did the Niners

0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:52.760
<v Speaker 1>do on Saturday? They came back and beat the Arizona Cardinals.

0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.400
<v Speaker 1>And now the Cowboys beat the Eagles. And what do

0:03:55.480 --> 0:04:00.680
<v Speaker 1>they do next Sunday Night? They're gonna beat They're gonna

0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 1>beat the Washington team, and they're gonna put us in

0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:07.440
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs. Right now, the Cowboys have to do their part.

0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:10.000
<v Speaker 1>We've taken care of that part of it. The Cowboys

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:12.120
<v Speaker 1>will have to do their part and beat the New

0:04:12.200 --> 0:04:20.919
<v Speaker 1>York Football Giants. Did Cincinnati again and yesterday Cincinnati, what

0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:26.040
<v Speaker 1>did they do? Yester? They were right, yes, yesterday the

0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:30.920
<v Speaker 1>playing they're playing, they played the best team so far. Right,

0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:35.840
<v Speaker 1>And how about It's like it's like the you know,

0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:39.039
<v Speaker 1>ever since you talk about the Cowboys being one of

0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:42.520
<v Speaker 1>the hotter teams in the league, two other hot teams

0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:44.560
<v Speaker 1>in the league, all of a sudden are the Bengals

0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:51.359
<v Speaker 1>and the New York Jets. Come on the company that

0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:55.160
<v Speaker 1>this is this is a goofy goofy year. I mean,

0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:57.760
<v Speaker 1>that's the best you can say about it. All. They

0:04:57.839 --> 0:04:59.960
<v Speaker 1>kept talking about it, and they were even this more

0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:03.720
<v Speaker 1>on it. Everyone's joking all the NFC East, they're so bad,

0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:09.120
<v Speaker 1>all these pundits, they're becoming so poetic on how they

0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:13.320
<v Speaker 1>put down the Cowboys and the NFC East. Everyone's trying

0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:16.080
<v Speaker 1>to be so dog gone articulate all of a sudden

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:19.359
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to how they can down the entire division.

0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:22.080
<v Speaker 1>And then when you look up, if you start talking

0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:26.480
<v Speaker 1>about the power index the last month of this season,

0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:29.760
<v Speaker 1>just the power index, like you just talked about Bill

0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:32.760
<v Speaker 1>teams that are beaten teams and lost to other teams

0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:36.800
<v Speaker 1>and upset other teams. The Cowboys power index is right

0:05:36.839 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 1>at the top. As a matter of fact, we are

0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:42.680
<v Speaker 1>the NFC East has how can I put it? They

0:05:42.680 --> 0:05:46.799
<v Speaker 1>have affected the playoff picture more than any other division

0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:50.160
<v Speaker 1>I think in the NFL. And with the Cowboys having

0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:54.839
<v Speaker 1>that windstreak going and affecting their own destiny, Man, you

0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:57.360
<v Speaker 1>can just shut up about the NFC East. You can say,

0:05:57.400 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 1>you can say what you want. In the first part

0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:02.479
<v Speaker 1>of the season, especially this last month, the NFC East,

0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:06.760
<v Speaker 1>especially Dallas Cowboys, are relevant. They are relevant and so

0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:11.320
<v Speaker 1>relevant that they got flexed into a prime time Sunday

0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:22.040
<v Speaker 1>night game. Oh boy, bangs, I'm talking about. That's what

0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:24.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about. So if you had those we talked

0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:29.599
<v Speaker 1>about that changing your airline plans, your flight plans. Someone

0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:32.400
<v Speaker 1>right now is scrambling to change all of their flight

0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:37.000
<v Speaker 1>plans leaving New York City and coming back home. And

0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:40.560
<v Speaker 1>so you know the real reason that Washington in Philadelphia

0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:44.919
<v Speaker 1>got flexed to Sunday night of the Cowboys. I mean,

0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:49.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm watching the game last night and it was a blowout.

0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:53.440
<v Speaker 1>The Packers are winning big over the Titans and Al Michaels.

0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:56.120
<v Speaker 1>It was like every time I tuned my ear to

0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:58.600
<v Speaker 1>what he was talking about, he was coming back. Let's talk.

0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Let's get back to talking about the NFCS. Let's talk

0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:07.479
<v Speaker 1>about how the Cowboys are doing so so there. Take yeah,

0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:12.040
<v Speaker 1>take that, everybody there who are nobody cares about the

0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys anymore? Yes, thank you. The first thing you talked

0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:20.760
<v Speaker 1>about when you started to talk about yesterday's game takeaways,

0:07:21.480 --> 0:07:24.360
<v Speaker 1>how about the takeaways? It's now ten to one over

0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:28.600
<v Speaker 1>the last three weeks, a plus nine. When after those

0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:36.560
<v Speaker 1>first what thirteen games or twelve games, they were minus thirteen.

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:39.480
<v Speaker 1>They were sitting there after nine excuse me, they were

0:07:39.560 --> 0:07:43.240
<v Speaker 1>two and seven and they were minus thirteen in the

0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:49.679
<v Speaker 1>takeaway turnover differential. And then suddenly these last three weeks

0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:55.800
<v Speaker 1>they're plus nine and it just makes such a huge difference.

0:07:55.840 --> 0:07:58.600
<v Speaker 1>We've been talking about it for the last couple of weeks.

0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:01.920
<v Speaker 1>They get two more or picks. How about that, Everson

0:08:02.040 --> 0:08:08.320
<v Speaker 1>Walls two picks and a fumble recovery. Somebody go find

0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:11.480
<v Speaker 1>me and Anthony Brown jersey I'm wearing it all. Next

0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:17.200
<v Speaker 1>number thirty, by the way, in case you need to know, yes,

0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:20.880
<v Speaker 1>number three. I am all on this guy, But then

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:24.600
<v Speaker 1>just let you know, guys, for real, how the pace

0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:28.640
<v Speaker 1>of the game. If you determine the pace of the game,

0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:33.360
<v Speaker 1>then these kind of fortunate opportunities come to you. I mean,

0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:36.000
<v Speaker 1>if you're offensively, you're gonna be always under the gun.

0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:37.800
<v Speaker 1>You can't run the ball, you're turning it over all

0:08:37.840 --> 0:08:41.839
<v Speaker 1>the time. You're putting your defense in bad situations to

0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:44.640
<v Speaker 1>whether it backs up against the wall with the offense,

0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:48.640
<v Speaker 1>the opposing offense in position to score. If you can't

0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:52.079
<v Speaker 1>stop the run consistently enough, then you don't have a

0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:56.479
<v Speaker 1>chance to make those turnovers. You can't create your own turnovers.

0:08:56.880 --> 0:09:00.320
<v Speaker 1>If your special team just fumbling the ball, they're not turning,

0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:03.640
<v Speaker 1>they're not contributing, they're not putting you in a positive position.

0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:06.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm going up down the road. I've always gone

0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 1>down guys. It takes every fast of the game for

0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:13.920
<v Speaker 1>this team. It's good for every team, but especially for

0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:18.680
<v Speaker 1>this team who really doesn't control things from one unit

0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:23.079
<v Speaker 1>to another. All three units have to come together to

0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:26.320
<v Speaker 1>help each other. Don't put a strain on your offense

0:09:26.440 --> 0:09:30.760
<v Speaker 1>special teams offense, don't put a strain on your defense

0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:34.560
<v Speaker 1>by giving it up and putting us in a bad position. Defense,

0:09:34.920 --> 0:09:37.439
<v Speaker 1>try and stop somebody on third down every once in

0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:40.360
<v Speaker 1>a while. Stop the running game from being so prevalent

0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:43.439
<v Speaker 1>to where your offense is under pressure when they come

0:09:43.480 --> 0:09:45.480
<v Speaker 1>into the game. We gotta score now. We gotta score

0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:48.600
<v Speaker 1>now because we haven't stopped anybody. None of that stuff

0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:52.000
<v Speaker 1>is happening right now, guys. Offensively, we're moving the ball.

0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Time of possession is amazing. We've controlled that. Defensively, we've

0:09:56.840 --> 0:10:00.560
<v Speaker 1>given up some drives, we've given up some big plays. Overall,

0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:05.319
<v Speaker 1>we have made the opposing offense work for every yard

0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:09.520
<v Speaker 1>they've gotten. We've gotten each other bend but don't break defense.

0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:11.720
<v Speaker 1>That's fine. I was all a part of that when

0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:14.000
<v Speaker 1>I was with the Cowboys. You had to make the

0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:17.560
<v Speaker 1>turnovers in order to survive. This is what our defense

0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:22.000
<v Speaker 1>is realizing that they have to do. And offensively, we're

0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:26.000
<v Speaker 1>feeding off of each other. Defense, feeding off the offensive offense,

0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:28.840
<v Speaker 1>feeding off the defense. That's the way you play ball. Guys.

0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:33.800
<v Speaker 1>We don't have the team offensively or defensively that can

0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:37.199
<v Speaker 1>counter a bunch of mistakes by the other side of

0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:39.199
<v Speaker 1>the ball. We just don't have it. And I think

0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:43.559
<v Speaker 1>we finally realized that, and we're coaching in that manner.

0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:47.440
<v Speaker 1>I like the way offensively, Keller Moore was making sure

0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:50.520
<v Speaker 1>that first down was huge for us. Did you see

0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:54.480
<v Speaker 1>that facts He made sure that on first down we

0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:57.600
<v Speaker 1>were able to work our way up to a short

0:10:58.000 --> 0:11:02.720
<v Speaker 1>and manageable third down position. It happened the entire game.

0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:05.559
<v Speaker 1>That's how we control that pace. I love it that

0:11:05.640 --> 0:11:08.360
<v Speaker 1>can wait for us throughout. And then you also see,

0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:10.360
<v Speaker 1>when you get a lead, the other team's got to

0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:13.040
<v Speaker 1>take some chances and they start throwing the ball, and

0:11:13.120 --> 0:11:15.800
<v Speaker 1>that's when you have an opportunity to get some turnovers,

0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:18.679
<v Speaker 1>you get some picks. You forced them out of what

0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:22.199
<v Speaker 1>they wanted to do. I'm not sure that they needed

0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:24.200
<v Speaker 1>to do it as quickly as they did. Right they

0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:27.040
<v Speaker 1>ran the ball right down the Cowboys throat those first

0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:30.440
<v Speaker 1>two possessions, got a fourteen to three lead. Then all

0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:32.360
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden, the Cowboys were in the lead and

0:11:32.559 --> 0:11:35.160
<v Speaker 1>Doug Peterson said, oh no, we're gonna just throw the

0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:37.719
<v Speaker 1>ball with Jalen Hurts, and I thought that was a

0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:41.280
<v Speaker 1>huge mistake. They got away from their read option run

0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:45.640
<v Speaker 1>plays that had been working. But again, you get the lead,

0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:49.080
<v Speaker 1>you caused people to do something different. You get the lead,

0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:51.679
<v Speaker 1>and suddenly at the end of the game, you can

0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:55.839
<v Speaker 1>run the football because they're taking chances, and all of

0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:58.959
<v Speaker 1>a sudden, those holes that you weren't opening earlier in

0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:03.040
<v Speaker 1>the game suddenly Zekiel Elliott's looking like, whoa, look at there,

0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:05.599
<v Speaker 1>there's no one in front of me. I don't have

0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:09.520
<v Speaker 1>to knock somebody over to get four yards. It's amazing.

0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:13.200
<v Speaker 1>And the offensive line didn't get better, right, but they

0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:16.800
<v Speaker 1>teams have to start taking chances when they get behind,

0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:19.920
<v Speaker 1>and so yeah, all this stuff started to come together,

0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:22.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, And you know, I was just gonna sit

0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:24.480
<v Speaker 1>there and say, yeah, you know. And the Cowboys got

0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:27.480
<v Speaker 1>their three wins and they beat three backup quarterbacks. Well,

0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:30.439
<v Speaker 1>welcome to the Cowboys world, right. They've been playing with

0:12:30.559 --> 0:12:34.360
<v Speaker 1>a backup quarterback since the fifth game. The third quarter

0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:36.920
<v Speaker 1>of the fifth game of the season, they've been playing

0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:40.080
<v Speaker 1>with backup offensive linemen, and did so in the middle

0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:42.319
<v Speaker 1>of the game when the one guy that's been the

0:12:43.120 --> 0:12:46.400
<v Speaker 1>standard bearer on that offensive line, Connor Williams, has to

0:12:46.440 --> 0:12:49.360
<v Speaker 1>go to the locker room with a knee injury or

0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:51.720
<v Speaker 1>a knee issue, and they got to shuffle things up

0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:55.440
<v Speaker 1>front again. They did it in the secondary. When they

0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:59.559
<v Speaker 1>lost Darren Thompson to the concussion protocol, they had to

0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:03.080
<v Speaker 1>move Jordan Lewis the safety, and they moved Anthony Brown, oh,

0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:05.679
<v Speaker 1>by the way into the slot where he was playing

0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:09.199
<v Speaker 1>when he picked off the pass. So I don't want

0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:11.319
<v Speaker 1>to hear about all these other teams injuries because this

0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:15.200
<v Speaker 1>team has been putting up with this since the beginning

0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:17.480
<v Speaker 1>of the season and now they're sitting there at six

0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:19.880
<v Speaker 1>and nine. Went a chance to go to seven and

0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:25.280
<v Speaker 1>nine and win the division. You know. The other thing,

0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:29.240
<v Speaker 1>and Mickey, you're talking about the Eagles getting away from

0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:32.600
<v Speaker 1>their what was working for them on that first drive

0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:35.000
<v Speaker 1>of the game, running the football with his own reads.

0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:36.719
<v Speaker 1>You know. In their second possession, of course, on the

0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:38.760
<v Speaker 1>first play they hit the bomb to de Sean Jacks.

0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:42.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah right, and got the fourteen to three lead. But

0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:46.400
<v Speaker 1>really credit the Cowboys they as far as the run

0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:51.040
<v Speaker 1>defense is concerned. The next possession for Philadelphia, they were

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:53.280
<v Speaker 1>three and out and they were all run plays. It

0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:56.960
<v Speaker 1>was Sanders for seven. Neville Gallimore stopped a run play

0:13:57.000 --> 0:13:59.640
<v Speaker 1>on second and three for a one yard loss to

0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:01.839
<v Speaker 1>He had a third and four and on the third

0:14:01.880 --> 0:14:04.120
<v Speaker 1>and four they ran it with Sanders again, got stopped

0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:06.680
<v Speaker 1>for two yards and had to punt. They came back

0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:08.800
<v Speaker 1>in the next possession and it was a mix of

0:14:08.840 --> 0:14:11.600
<v Speaker 1>the run. They started with a Hurts run, a Sanders run,

0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:14.360
<v Speaker 1>a Hurts run, and then they threw it and then

0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:18.600
<v Speaker 1>Hurts ran it again. Anyway that the drive ended without

0:14:18.679 --> 0:14:22.240
<v Speaker 1>points being scored, okay. And then the Cowboys come back

0:14:22.400 --> 0:14:26.080
<v Speaker 1>and they made enough place started the second half, which

0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:29.880
<v Speaker 1>was huge. I mean McCarthy talks about the double water

0:14:29.920 --> 0:14:32.520
<v Speaker 1>burger with Cheese scoring the touchdown at the end of

0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:35.440
<v Speaker 1>the first half and then scoring a touchdown on the

0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:38.200
<v Speaker 1>first possession of the second half within the other part

0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:41.560
<v Speaker 1>of that. So the Cowboys went from being down seventeen

0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:45.280
<v Speaker 1>thirteen to being up twenty seven and seventeen. Then the

0:14:45.440 --> 0:14:48.320
<v Speaker 1>defense comes out and the Eagles run the ball with

0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:51.840
<v Speaker 1>Sanders for six yards and then Sean Lee makes a tackle.

0:14:51.960 --> 0:14:55.400
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Brown sets the edge on that play for no gain,

0:14:55.840 --> 0:14:58.880
<v Speaker 1>creating a third and four and an incomplete pass ball

0:14:58.960 --> 0:15:00.800
<v Speaker 1>back in the hands of the All Boys, which was

0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:03.400
<v Speaker 1>another scoring drive, a field goal, and you're up thirty

0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:07.040
<v Speaker 1>to seventeen. And it's basically Katie bar the door, which

0:15:07.160 --> 0:15:09.840
<v Speaker 1>is remarkable since they ended up giving one hundred and

0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:12.960
<v Speaker 1>fifty one yards rushing. That's two games in a row

0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:19.200
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and fifty yards rushing. But as someone pointed

0:15:19.240 --> 0:15:21.600
<v Speaker 1>out to me, I think last week, well that was

0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:24.320
<v Speaker 1>an improvement over the two hundred and some yards they

0:15:24.360 --> 0:15:28.880
<v Speaker 1>gave up the week before. So I was just gonna say,

0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:32.000
<v Speaker 1>as Fays, I'm sorry, I'm not only minting one hundred

0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:34.800
<v Speaker 1>and fifty yards rushing at all. To me, that is

0:15:34.800 --> 0:15:38.360
<v Speaker 1>an improvement. And they were actually looking decent except for

0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:40.800
<v Speaker 1>the first drive. They were giving up some plays. But

0:15:41.360 --> 0:15:45.920
<v Speaker 1>I'd say after that second quarter, the rush situation for Philly,

0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:48.280
<v Speaker 1>even though as Bill pointed out, they still tried to

0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:50.960
<v Speaker 1>run the ball, not only did we stop to run

0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:54.200
<v Speaker 1>with that D line, I thought that they made things

0:15:54.400 --> 0:15:58.880
<v Speaker 1>very uncomfortable for Hurts anytime he dropped that on third

0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:03.680
<v Speaker 1>down in third down situations. That was something that I

0:16:03.920 --> 0:16:09.480
<v Speaker 1>saw was a determining factor in their defensive third down success.

0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:13.400
<v Speaker 1>The fact that we were able to come Randy Gregory

0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:18.080
<v Speaker 1>was playing like a madman. Gallimore did just what we

0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:22.040
<v Speaker 1>talked about before last week, Bill coming in making plays

0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:26.920
<v Speaker 1>in the middle. The linebackers themselves were filling holes well

0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:30.840
<v Speaker 1>enough to where they were causing penalties against that filling

0:16:30.920 --> 0:16:34.600
<v Speaker 1>offensive line because they were able to fill those holes

0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:39.560
<v Speaker 1>that our defensive line was creating for our linebackers. I

0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:42.360
<v Speaker 1>thought they were very coordinated on third down. Guys. It

0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:45.760
<v Speaker 1>was our first, best to me best third down play

0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:49.560
<v Speaker 1>all year long. And Bill, when we come back from break,

0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:55.160
<v Speaker 1>I guarantee you that Jalen Hurts woke up in the

0:16:55.240 --> 0:16:58.000
<v Speaker 1>middle of the night and saw ninety four on top

0:16:58.080 --> 0:17:06.200
<v Speaker 1>of them. All right, that guarantee would we come back

0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:13.560
<v Speaker 1>here a moment. Hey, they're Cowboys fans. With Type Cleaners

<v Speaker 1>you come on, bro, I wrote them down, you dog,

0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:23.080
<v Speaker 1>all right next to your meek, meager little picks here,

0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:26.560
<v Speaker 1>I must say. Everson ever said, hold on your second.

0:20:26.560 --> 0:20:27.760
<v Speaker 1>I want to set it up for you. So I

0:20:27.840 --> 0:20:29.320
<v Speaker 1>want to set it up. That's where I was gonna

0:20:29.359 --> 0:20:32.320
<v Speaker 1>go too. Anyway here, Okay, did both of you have

0:20:32.440 --> 0:20:36.119
<v Speaker 1>a great Christmas weekend? Yes? Yes, yes, I had a

0:20:36.240 --> 0:20:40.520
<v Speaker 1>great Christmas. Yes, very very safe, very safe, was able

0:20:40.520 --> 0:20:42.879
<v Speaker 1>to see all my loved ones from a farm. That's correct.

0:20:43.320 --> 0:20:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Did both of you see the lamb this weekend? Yes?

0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:49.680
<v Speaker 1>I saw ceedee lamb this weekend. You did see d

0:20:49.840 --> 0:20:52.640
<v Speaker 1>lamb and that lady, just do. I picked the click

0:20:53.000 --> 0:20:57.159
<v Speaker 1>which was a wonderful pick to click by Everson Walls

0:20:57.240 --> 0:21:01.480
<v Speaker 1>and shown up on Sunday. We did see the lamb

0:21:01.920 --> 0:21:04.440
<v Speaker 1>on the final touchdown of the day, and not only that,

0:21:04.600 --> 0:21:08.160
<v Speaker 1>but also the first touchdown of the second half. Thank

0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:11.159
<v Speaker 1>you very much? Boy? Did he did he embarrass that?

0:21:11.280 --> 0:21:14.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm learning my notes? I see. First of all, all

0:21:14.400 --> 0:21:19.359
<v Speaker 1>of us were very I'm sorry. We were weak and

0:21:19.760 --> 0:21:22.439
<v Speaker 1>not We just didn't believe. We didn't believe, We had

0:21:22.560 --> 0:21:27.880
<v Speaker 1>no faith. We know, and Spats pointed it out. Anytime

0:21:27.960 --> 0:21:33.040
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys win, they score over thirty points. Right, that's

0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:36.160
<v Speaker 1>been over the last two years, correct, Spacts. They are

0:21:36.400 --> 0:21:41.840
<v Speaker 1>now fourteen wins and fourteen games scoring at least thirty points.

0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:46.159
<v Speaker 1>What did we do, guys? What was our prediction for

0:21:46.280 --> 0:21:50.480
<v Speaker 1>the score? I started off and you guys just fall

0:21:50.600 --> 0:21:56.400
<v Speaker 1>along like some little blind sheep. Twenty four points. All

0:21:56.520 --> 0:21:59.600
<v Speaker 1>three of us guys just twenty four points. Where is

0:21:59.640 --> 0:22:02.720
<v Speaker 1>the faith? Especially you, Bill Spags. We expect that from him,

0:22:03.440 --> 0:22:06.119
<v Speaker 1>but you and I should have known better. I'm so

0:22:06.320 --> 0:22:10.159
<v Speaker 1>disappointed in myself. Twenty four seventeen, you got twenty four

0:22:10.280 --> 0:22:13.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty three Spags, So that means Spags didn't really care.

0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:16.119
<v Speaker 1>That was just you know, he rolled that score in.

0:22:16.440 --> 0:22:23.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, Bill, would you have But as we look

0:22:23.080 --> 0:22:26.720
<v Speaker 1>at our picks to click, we did pretty good. We

0:22:26.880 --> 0:22:29.879
<v Speaker 1>did pretty good, Spags said d Larrence, which you know

0:22:30.080 --> 0:22:33.120
<v Speaker 1>he was. You know, if it wasn't for Reddy Gregory, yeah,

0:22:33.160 --> 0:22:35.440
<v Speaker 1>d Larrence would have been the great picked the click,

0:22:35.520 --> 0:22:38.960
<v Speaker 1>but Reddy Greggan was going crazy. Sean Lee was benefiting

0:22:39.000 --> 0:22:41.880
<v Speaker 1>off of what the guys were doing up front. Good pick, Bill,

0:22:42.480 --> 0:22:45.240
<v Speaker 1>but hey, Alamore was was was making it easy for

0:22:45.400 --> 0:22:47.920
<v Speaker 1>he and and Jaymon Smith. You know that I was

0:22:48.040 --> 0:22:50.359
<v Speaker 1>looking at the day job. It was Cede Lamb. We

0:22:50.800 --> 0:22:55.640
<v Speaker 1>missed the fact. My note said, uh, the Cede Lamb

0:22:55.720 --> 0:22:59.080
<v Speaker 1>passed the week before Andy Dalton through that dime. I

0:22:59.160 --> 0:23:03.080
<v Speaker 1>told you how what a dime that was. I don't

0:23:03.119 --> 0:23:05.640
<v Speaker 1>know why we didn't talk about that. The wide receivers,

0:23:05.640 --> 0:23:08.879
<v Speaker 1>I said, must win the one on one battles. Yeah, ceedee,

0:23:08.920 --> 0:23:13.000
<v Speaker 1>lamb one his But forget him. We're looking at Coop

0:23:13.760 --> 0:23:17.679
<v Speaker 1>had a great day yesterday. We're looking at Michael Gallop,

0:23:17.960 --> 0:23:21.360
<v Speaker 1>who had another great day yesterday. We should have seen

0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:23.560
<v Speaker 1>it coming, man, We should have had We should have

0:23:23.600 --> 0:23:28.560
<v Speaker 1>picked forty points, all three of us. Basically, here's here's

0:23:28.600 --> 0:23:31.879
<v Speaker 1>what happened. I didn't trust the offensive line, and I

0:23:32.000 --> 0:23:36.240
<v Speaker 1>still worry about them. And that's why I said, Okay,

0:23:36.240 --> 0:23:39.240
<v Speaker 1>if they can score twenty four points, they're doing well.

0:23:40.680 --> 0:23:44.440
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, they it was a mismatch in the secondary.

0:23:44.800 --> 0:23:48.400
<v Speaker 1>And if the offensive line could just have been okay,

0:23:48.800 --> 0:23:51.680
<v Speaker 1>which they were, to give Dalton a chance to throw

0:23:51.760 --> 0:23:54.440
<v Speaker 1>the ball down the field, you can see what this

0:23:54.600 --> 0:24:00.879
<v Speaker 1>guy still has all this stuff, Andy Dalton. Yeah, he

0:24:01.000 --> 0:24:05.560
<v Speaker 1>put three hundred and seventy seven yards on the Philadelphia Eagles,

0:24:06.480 --> 0:24:11.359
<v Speaker 1>including three touchdown passed on right and he got a

0:24:11.480 --> 0:24:14.320
<v Speaker 1>little too aggressive when he didn't need to be aggressive

0:24:14.960 --> 0:24:18.040
<v Speaker 1>on that one pass. But other than that, he finished

0:24:18.080 --> 0:24:21.960
<v Speaker 1>with a one thirty four point seven quarterback rating, and

0:24:23.000 --> 0:24:27.680
<v Speaker 1>the the rookie Flash ended up with a seventy point

0:24:27.840 --> 0:24:35.680
<v Speaker 1>seven quarterback rating. There you go. I would like to

0:24:35.800 --> 0:24:39.360
<v Speaker 1>say one thing about my pick to click Sean Lee. Well,

0:24:39.400 --> 0:24:42.960
<v Speaker 1>I'll say two things. Number one, how about we play

0:24:43.000 --> 0:24:45.119
<v Speaker 1>him a little bit more. He got thirty snaps in

0:24:45.160 --> 0:24:48.120
<v Speaker 1>the game, and but the key thing that he did

0:24:48.920 --> 0:24:51.800
<v Speaker 1>was after falling behind team to three. They showed it

0:24:51.880 --> 0:24:55.760
<v Speaker 1>on television. He called the defense together and after he

0:24:56.040 --> 0:24:59.920
<v Speaker 1>chewed their butts out, the defense only scored only gave

0:25:00.080 --> 0:25:01.920
<v Speaker 1>up three points the rest of the game. So I

0:25:02.000 --> 0:25:04.520
<v Speaker 1>credit that to the butt chewing on the sideline from

0:25:04.600 --> 0:25:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Sean Lee. How's that? No? Absolutely absolutely stick to click.

0:25:09.000 --> 0:25:11.280
<v Speaker 1>But I'll give it to you. That's a stretch for

0:25:11.359 --> 0:25:14.119
<v Speaker 1>a pick to click. But I'll pick we all should

0:25:14.160 --> 0:25:16.960
<v Speaker 1>have won the game. The pick we all should have

0:25:17.000 --> 0:25:19.600
<v Speaker 1>made was Randy Gregory. Right. He had a sack and

0:25:19.680 --> 0:25:23.920
<v Speaker 1>a half, six tackles, two quarterback hits, one pass defense,

0:25:24.240 --> 0:25:28.320
<v Speaker 1>and forced three fumbles only one of which the Cowboys

0:25:28.440 --> 0:25:32.520
<v Speaker 1>did recover. But he was all over the place and

0:25:32.640 --> 0:25:35.919
<v Speaker 1>when he wasn't recording a number, he was in Jalen

0:25:36.000 --> 0:25:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Hurt's face. He was chasing him out of the pocket. Uh,

0:25:40.440 --> 0:25:42.200
<v Speaker 1>there was a couple I thought he should have got

0:25:42.240 --> 0:25:45.760
<v Speaker 1>called from grounding. I think I think he caused at

0:25:45.880 --> 0:25:50.080
<v Speaker 1>least two false starts. Oh absolutely, Oh that guy. That

0:25:50.200 --> 0:25:52.280
<v Speaker 1>guy got the jitters over there on that side of

0:25:52.320 --> 0:25:59.240
<v Speaker 1>the field. And one of them was a huge one.

0:25:59.320 --> 0:26:01.639
<v Speaker 1>I mean if it was Gregory that caused it, the

0:26:01.720 --> 0:26:05.440
<v Speaker 1>one that uh on the when they were in the

0:26:05.680 --> 0:26:10.320
<v Speaker 1>on the plus side of the fifty and it turned yeah, yeah,

0:26:11.160 --> 0:26:15.040
<v Speaker 1>and um so that was huge. Um. Well, the other

0:26:15.119 --> 0:26:17.840
<v Speaker 1>guy is Michael Gallup. I mean the way Gallup played

0:26:17.840 --> 0:26:20.560
<v Speaker 1>in that first half, I mean it was it was

0:26:20.680 --> 0:26:25.280
<v Speaker 1>almost like a three point shooter in basketball where you

0:26:25.359 --> 0:26:27.280
<v Speaker 1>just want to keep seeing the guy because he is

0:26:27.359 --> 0:26:30.879
<v Speaker 1>hot right now. I mean, and and Dalton kept feeding

0:26:30.920 --> 0:26:33.840
<v Speaker 1>Gallop and it was one after another. Uh and that

0:26:34.000 --> 0:26:37.000
<v Speaker 1>was it was so huge. Uh the way that half

0:26:37.160 --> 0:26:41.399
<v Speaker 1>ended uh to Cowboys on offense, I mean it was

0:26:41.520 --> 0:26:44.280
<v Speaker 1>like they were in the running shoot where where they

0:26:44.320 --> 0:26:48.240
<v Speaker 1>were shooting and scoring. Uh and uh. And Gallup was

0:26:48.320 --> 0:26:52.119
<v Speaker 1>the guy during I mean he showed during that second

0:26:52.240 --> 0:26:57.560
<v Speaker 1>quarter exactly why we've all been talking about Michael Gallup

0:26:57.680 --> 0:27:00.440
<v Speaker 1>being a number one receiver in this league. Yeah. And

0:27:00.880 --> 0:27:02.879
<v Speaker 1>I want all the people out there and get their

0:27:02.960 --> 0:27:05.000
<v Speaker 1>hands up in the air. They wanted to trade him

0:27:05.000 --> 0:27:08.440
<v Speaker 1>because Cowboys had too many wide receivers. Right, let's trade

0:27:08.520 --> 0:27:13.399
<v Speaker 1>Michael Gallup. And I spoke of it last week, and

0:27:13.880 --> 0:27:17.760
<v Speaker 1>once again I speak of it. Molly Cooper just a

0:27:17.920 --> 0:27:23.320
<v Speaker 1>quiet assassin, just as consistent as ever. Did he get

0:27:23.359 --> 0:27:28.720
<v Speaker 1>his thousand yards yesterday? Yes, he got his thousand yards yesterday.

0:27:28.880 --> 0:27:33.080
<v Speaker 1>And just think about this, guys, You've gone through four

0:27:33.240 --> 0:27:36.679
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks and this guy is able to get a thousand yards.

0:27:37.000 --> 0:27:39.119
<v Speaker 1>He did exactly what he was brought here to do.

0:27:39.359 --> 0:27:42.399
<v Speaker 1>No matter what it was going on around him, he

0:27:42.600 --> 0:27:45.760
<v Speaker 1>stayed steady and consistent in what he had to do.

0:27:46.280 --> 0:27:48.960
<v Speaker 1>And when it's all said and done, to me, he's

0:27:49.000 --> 0:27:51.600
<v Speaker 1>the MVP of this team. I really believe that. And

0:27:51.880 --> 0:27:55.440
<v Speaker 1>not only that, he ended up with a single season

0:27:55.560 --> 0:27:58.960
<v Speaker 1>high eighties. He has eighty six catches now with one

0:27:59.080 --> 0:28:01.479
<v Speaker 1>game to go, and he's a thousand yards. He's got

0:28:01.560 --> 0:28:06.920
<v Speaker 1>eleven hundred yards now receiving. So those guys have done

0:28:06.960 --> 0:28:09.159
<v Speaker 1>a heck of a job. You know. Everybody kind of

0:28:09.320 --> 0:28:11.360
<v Speaker 1>laughed when they said, well he can have three one

0:28:11.440 --> 0:28:14.840
<v Speaker 1>thousand yard receivers, right, Well, they've got one for sure,

0:28:15.680 --> 0:28:21.359
<v Speaker 1>and Lamb has eight hundred and ninety two at this point,

0:28:21.520 --> 0:28:25.600
<v Speaker 1>gallops seven ninety four, so in all of them with

0:28:25.760 --> 0:28:29.719
<v Speaker 1>at least fifty five catches. So yeah, these three guys certainly,

0:28:29.760 --> 0:28:32.840
<v Speaker 1>but see that. I mean, look, they ended up with

0:28:33.080 --> 0:28:37.280
<v Speaker 1>five hundred and thirteen yards total offense. If you remember,

0:28:37.480 --> 0:28:41.160
<v Speaker 1>before Dak got hurt, the three games prior to that

0:28:41.280 --> 0:28:44.800
<v Speaker 1>Giants game, they had totaled five hundred yards total offense

0:28:44.880 --> 0:28:47.200
<v Speaker 1>in three games in a row. This is the first

0:28:47.320 --> 0:28:51.440
<v Speaker 1>one since then. So it shows you what this offense

0:28:51.560 --> 0:28:55.320
<v Speaker 1>can do. Zeke with another with his second hundred yard

0:28:55.920 --> 0:28:59.000
<v Speaker 1>rushing performance, you can see what this offense can do

0:28:59.240 --> 0:29:03.680
<v Speaker 1>if the offensive wine will cooperate and not turn the

0:29:03.760 --> 0:29:07.400
<v Speaker 1>ball over. Yeah, he I think he needs seventy seventy

0:29:07.480 --> 0:29:11.920
<v Speaker 1>yards maybe to hit a thousand. That's crazy, that's crazy.

0:29:12.320 --> 0:29:15.920
<v Speaker 1>And so guys, let's just go back to last year

0:29:16.320 --> 0:29:23.880
<v Speaker 1>when everyone was questioning a Marii Cooper's heart. You know,

0:29:24.080 --> 0:29:25.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this guy was having a great year and

0:29:26.040 --> 0:29:29.560
<v Speaker 1>he had a little little little down down moment there

0:29:29.640 --> 0:29:32.000
<v Speaker 1>and everyone was talking about what's wrong with him? Why

0:29:32.080 --> 0:29:35.680
<v Speaker 1>isn't he playing better? After the Patriots game, everyone was

0:29:35.760 --> 0:29:38.600
<v Speaker 1>on him like he doesn't deserve the status is our

0:29:38.720 --> 0:29:42.480
<v Speaker 1>number one receiver and he never said anything. He has

0:29:42.560 --> 0:29:45.880
<v Speaker 1>never said anything. He's never tried to take up for himself.

0:29:46.520 --> 0:29:51.680
<v Speaker 1>He lets his talking happened on the field, and that's

0:29:51.720 --> 0:29:55.680
<v Speaker 1>just something that, as you look back on, is never appreciated.

0:29:56.280 --> 0:29:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Until you know, people started contemplating what the season was

0:30:00.040 --> 0:30:02.040
<v Speaker 1>all about him, Well, his career was all about it.

0:30:02.400 --> 0:30:04.560
<v Speaker 1>I've got to give him some love. Man. I've been

0:30:04.680 --> 0:30:06.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of down on him myself as far as his

0:30:06.640 --> 0:30:09.719
<v Speaker 1>lack of aggressiveness, and I want him to speak up

0:30:09.720 --> 0:30:12.960
<v Speaker 1>for himself, but this guy refuses to do that, and

0:30:13.080 --> 0:30:15.440
<v Speaker 1>he just does all his talking on the field. I

0:30:15.600 --> 0:30:18.320
<v Speaker 1>really do admire the guy. I thought the neatest thing

0:30:18.400 --> 0:30:20.960
<v Speaker 1>he said after the game, when somebody asked him about

0:30:21.120 --> 0:30:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Gallup's big performance, he said, I just felt it. I

0:30:24.800 --> 0:30:28.000
<v Speaker 1>felt that in the air. I just knew that this

0:30:28.480 --> 0:30:31.400
<v Speaker 1>was the game he was going to dominate. I actually

0:30:31.880 --> 0:30:34.600
<v Speaker 1>wanted him to do a lot more because I just

0:30:34.920 --> 0:30:37.880
<v Speaker 1>think that's what I felt. The guy was holding them

0:30:38.040 --> 0:30:40.880
<v Speaker 1>every play the beginning of the game, and I just

0:30:41.160 --> 0:30:43.760
<v Speaker 1>know Michael and so yeah, I was glad to see

0:30:43.840 --> 0:30:45.920
<v Speaker 1>him go out there and do his think. So he

0:30:45.960 --> 0:30:50.800
<v Speaker 1>would rather talk about everybody else but himself, and that's

0:30:50.920 --> 0:30:53.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of the guy. He's kind of like that quiet assassin.

0:30:53.800 --> 0:30:56.240
<v Speaker 1>You don't hear much from him, you don't see much

0:30:56.280 --> 0:30:58.240
<v Speaker 1>from him all the time, and then all of a

0:30:58.280 --> 0:31:02.080
<v Speaker 1>sudden he turns up with leven hundred yards receiving eighty

0:31:02.160 --> 0:31:06.520
<v Speaker 1>six receptions with one game to go. Uh, he's just

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:08.880
<v Speaker 1>did you spend one? Did you see him break that

0:31:09.000 --> 0:31:14.320
<v Speaker 1>guy's ankle? Him? The guy's legs ended up being prexeled.

0:31:19.000 --> 0:31:21.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's that's just you know, and he no

0:31:21.680 --> 0:31:24.640
<v Speaker 1>one's gonna mention that. No one's gonna say anything about that,

0:31:25.240 --> 0:31:28.440
<v Speaker 1>just because of just how humble he is. But to me,

0:31:28.600 --> 0:31:30.720
<v Speaker 1>if that was any other wide receiver, if it was

0:31:30.840 --> 0:31:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Tieweik Hill, if it was DeVante Adams, any of those guys,

0:31:34.280 --> 0:31:36.880
<v Speaker 1>if they would have broken down a dB at the

0:31:36.960 --> 0:31:39.240
<v Speaker 1>line of Scrimma is just like that, it would have

0:31:39.320 --> 0:31:41.560
<v Speaker 1>been a top ten. That was the hell of a play.

0:31:43.400 --> 0:31:46.320
<v Speaker 1>And don't you wish the Cowboys would have started taking games?

0:31:46.440 --> 0:31:51.240
<v Speaker 1>And back six weeks ago everyone was talking about let's

0:31:51.400 --> 0:31:58.520
<v Speaker 1>let's go with Garrett Gilbert instead of Andy Dalton. Oh man, bag,

0:31:58.600 --> 0:32:04.200
<v Speaker 1>don't don't don't get me started, don't get don't work,

0:32:04.320 --> 0:32:07.400
<v Speaker 1>don't don't gass him up, Bill, Please don't gas him up.

0:32:07.960 --> 0:32:10.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm just sitting there thinking, how many people back in

0:32:11.080 --> 0:32:17.240
<v Speaker 1>mid November we're saying, Oh, they're still they're still talking

0:32:17.320 --> 0:32:20.000
<v Speaker 1>about it. They're still talking about it. Oh no, we're

0:32:20.040 --> 0:32:26.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna be drafting seventeenth. You know what, And this may

0:32:26.840 --> 0:32:33.680
<v Speaker 1>be the most unreasonable draft there's been. Right other than

0:32:33.760 --> 0:32:37.880
<v Speaker 1>the quarterbacks and a linebacker from Penn State start telling

0:32:37.960 --> 0:32:40.120
<v Speaker 1>me who the top players are. As a matter of fact,

0:32:40.200 --> 0:32:43.760
<v Speaker 1>these teams don't even know because they can't scout these

0:32:43.840 --> 0:32:46.640
<v Speaker 1>guys the way they're normally used to scouting them. They

0:32:46.720 --> 0:32:49.160
<v Speaker 1>can't meet with them the way they're normally used to

0:32:49.360 --> 0:32:51.680
<v Speaker 1>meeting with them, and who knows if there's gonna be

0:32:51.760 --> 0:32:55.000
<v Speaker 1>a Senior Bowl or even a combine, or if it's

0:32:55.120 --> 0:33:00.200
<v Speaker 1>virtual with nobody's there to talk personally with people. I

0:33:00.720 --> 0:33:03.640
<v Speaker 1>just think and think about the junior outs. If you

0:33:03.760 --> 0:33:07.160
<v Speaker 1>weren't on these guys as sophomores and had all these scouting,

0:33:07.200 --> 0:33:09.920
<v Speaker 1>and these guys became juniors and now you're they're coming

0:33:09.960 --> 0:33:14.480
<v Speaker 1>out and you've had no contact with them whatsoever, this

0:33:14.880 --> 0:33:17.600
<v Speaker 1>makes me the most unreasonable draft there's ever been. So

0:33:17.800 --> 0:33:20.440
<v Speaker 1>why you want to put the premium on a top

0:33:20.560 --> 0:33:25.280
<v Speaker 1>ten pick well. And also now it depends on the position.

0:33:25.360 --> 0:33:28.480
<v Speaker 1>Of course, we can see those that make the catches

0:33:28.520 --> 0:33:31.440
<v Speaker 1>and that make the runs and the passes, but it's

0:33:31.480 --> 0:33:33.720
<v Speaker 1>hard when you're talking about a guy making the tackles.

0:33:34.160 --> 0:33:35.920
<v Speaker 1>So when you're talking about a guy trying to shut

0:33:36.000 --> 0:33:38.959
<v Speaker 1>somebody down one on one, and when you're a D lineman,

0:33:39.360 --> 0:33:40.800
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, you're you're in that a

0:33:40.960 --> 0:33:43.640
<v Speaker 1>gap and you're that D lineman that's damn good at

0:33:43.680 --> 0:33:45.840
<v Speaker 1>what he does. But it just really doesn't come out

0:33:46.360 --> 0:33:48.640
<v Speaker 1>as much, like you said, when you don't get to

0:33:48.720 --> 0:33:50.680
<v Speaker 1>study them, when you don't get to talk to them,

0:33:50.920 --> 0:33:54.000
<v Speaker 1>and you don't get to see them show how they

0:33:54.120 --> 0:33:57.800
<v Speaker 1>play well against the top seniors in the country. That's

0:33:57.880 --> 0:34:01.240
<v Speaker 1>tough deal. Tough deal for guys coming out. And I'll

0:34:01.280 --> 0:34:05.400
<v Speaker 1>throw a couple of these are two very high quality

0:34:05.840 --> 0:34:11.480
<v Speaker 1>people and they're local and but they were the second

0:34:11.520 --> 0:34:14.920
<v Speaker 1>and third pick of the Okay, Luke jokel out of

0:34:15.000 --> 0:34:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Arlington High School and Texas A and M was the

0:34:17.280 --> 0:34:19.759
<v Speaker 1>second pick of the draft and offensive tackle. I met

0:34:19.880 --> 0:34:22.479
<v Speaker 1>him when he was in high school at Arlington High School.

0:34:22.480 --> 0:34:24.719
<v Speaker 1>I said, this guy's gonna be a first round draft pick.

0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:26.600
<v Speaker 1>It was this. I mean, you can tell as he

0:34:26.719 --> 0:34:28.440
<v Speaker 1>was when he was a senior in high school, and

0:34:28.480 --> 0:34:30.799
<v Speaker 1>sure enough he was a second pick in the draft. Now,

0:34:30.960 --> 0:34:34.400
<v Speaker 1>he probably had issues whatever in his career, but you know,

0:34:34.600 --> 0:34:36.719
<v Speaker 1>he did not have a great NFL career. He's not

0:34:36.800 --> 0:34:39.960
<v Speaker 1>in the league now. Solomon Thomas from Coppelle High School

0:34:40.040 --> 0:34:43.840
<v Speaker 1>in Stanford. I mean, you cannot. You cannot have a

0:34:44.239 --> 0:34:48.920
<v Speaker 1>finer human being or a prospect than Solomon Thomas. And

0:34:49.120 --> 0:34:52.520
<v Speaker 1>he still might become a Pro Bowl type player in

0:34:52.600 --> 0:34:54.239
<v Speaker 1>his career, but here in the first three or four

0:34:54.320 --> 0:34:57.960
<v Speaker 1>years of his career, he hasn't for whatever reason, hasn't

0:34:58.040 --> 0:35:01.120
<v Speaker 1>been He's been a rotational defensive lineman for them. My

0:35:01.239 --> 0:35:04.000
<v Speaker 1>point on all that is, you don't you can have

0:35:04.160 --> 0:35:07.120
<v Speaker 1>the second or third pick in the draft and you've

0:35:07.200 --> 0:35:10.879
<v Speaker 1>got the most quality human being and prospect that your

0:35:10.920 --> 0:35:13.120
<v Speaker 1>scouts could ever come up with, and you don't know

0:35:13.320 --> 0:35:16.560
<v Speaker 1>for sure that they are going to be, you know,

0:35:16.680 --> 0:35:20.719
<v Speaker 1>all pro type players at all. And so the point being,

0:35:21.200 --> 0:35:24.560
<v Speaker 1>play the games, just play the season out, do things

0:35:24.640 --> 0:35:28.799
<v Speaker 1>the right way, and those players a Tyring Smith will

0:35:28.840 --> 0:35:30.960
<v Speaker 1>fall to you at number nine or whatever wherever he

0:35:31.080 --> 0:35:33.239
<v Speaker 1>was drafted J. J. Watt was a tenth pick in

0:35:33.320 --> 0:35:36.799
<v Speaker 1>the draft or whatever. CD lamb Okay is a great

0:35:36.840 --> 0:35:40.319
<v Speaker 1>example where the Cowboys got him last year. There are

0:35:40.400 --> 0:35:43.239
<v Speaker 1>players available for you anyway. How about how about one

0:35:43.320 --> 0:35:47.400
<v Speaker 1>more Emmett Smith at seventeen? There you go. How about

0:35:47.440 --> 0:35:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Ever Walls at nowhere and z. How about two that

0:35:57.960 --> 0:36:01.640
<v Speaker 1>are going in round and they still wouldn't have picked me?

0:36:02.360 --> 0:36:04.839
<v Speaker 1>And ever Everson should be in the Hall of Fame.

0:36:04.880 --> 0:36:07.160
<v Speaker 1>And there's two more that weren't drafted that I want

0:36:07.200 --> 0:36:12.239
<v Speaker 1>to draw fame next year where Harrison Drew Pearson. All right,

0:36:12.400 --> 0:36:16.239
<v Speaker 1>that's the pick weren't Yeah, all right, we continue with

0:36:16.440 --> 0:36:19.080
<v Speaker 1>more mix shots, and I gotta hear this about Randy

0:36:19.160 --> 0:36:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Gregory and Jalen Hurts. We'll talk Jalen Hurts when we

<v Speaker 1>What do you guys think of Jalen Hurts or cowboys

0:39:29.160 --> 0:39:31.279
<v Speaker 1>shaking in their boots that Jalen Hurts might be the

0:39:31.480 --> 0:39:38.200
<v Speaker 1>Eagles quarterback going forward. I'll allow him being a rookie.

0:39:39.000 --> 0:39:43.480
<v Speaker 1>I understand the things he does, but I didn't understand

0:39:43.600 --> 0:39:47.960
<v Speaker 1>some of the things he did to create the mistakes

0:39:48.040 --> 0:39:52.000
<v Speaker 1>that really cost them the game. You got to be

0:39:52.120 --> 0:39:57.320
<v Speaker 1>able to throw passes more accurately when you're throwing the

0:39:57.480 --> 0:40:00.960
<v Speaker 1>seventeen yard out, when you're throw own the ball over

0:40:01.040 --> 0:40:04.799
<v Speaker 1>the middle. Look, the easiest pass for rookie to throw

0:40:05.440 --> 0:40:10.239
<v Speaker 1>is a deep pass because generally it's either it's either

0:40:10.560 --> 0:40:14.799
<v Speaker 1>a big play. It might be incomplete and no harm,

0:40:14.920 --> 0:40:18.160
<v Speaker 1>no file, And if it gets intercepted, yeah, our pass

0:40:18.280 --> 0:40:20.800
<v Speaker 1>interference as we saw on the one, and if it

0:40:20.840 --> 0:40:24.359
<v Speaker 1>gets intercepted, it's like a punt. So to me, that's

0:40:24.400 --> 0:40:28.480
<v Speaker 1>the the money throws. He still got to work on,

0:40:28.960 --> 0:40:30.640
<v Speaker 1>and he's still got to be able to stand in

0:40:30.760 --> 0:40:33.360
<v Speaker 1>the pocket and not run around and think he's going

0:40:33.440 --> 0:40:36.360
<v Speaker 1>to create all the time when you can't do it,

0:40:36.480 --> 0:40:38.960
<v Speaker 1>and I think, you know what, I think Kyler Murray

0:40:39.000 --> 0:40:42.120
<v Speaker 1>struggled with that a little bit too. In this last game.

0:40:42.520 --> 0:40:47.399
<v Speaker 1>His short medium passes were very inaccurate and that's why

0:40:47.520 --> 0:40:52.960
<v Speaker 1>they were struggling too. And you know, he's a rookie,

0:40:53.640 --> 0:40:56.520
<v Speaker 1>and Bill you talked about it about what the oh

0:40:56.640 --> 0:41:01.319
<v Speaker 1>you fans remember from the mistakes that he may last week.

0:41:02.000 --> 0:41:04.080
<v Speaker 1>But one thing we did know, he gave them a

0:41:04.200 --> 0:41:07.439
<v Speaker 1>better chance than what costs them wins would have done.

0:41:07.960 --> 0:41:10.279
<v Speaker 1>I really would have felt better if Cowsom would have

0:41:10.360 --> 0:41:14.800
<v Speaker 1>started that game. And let's be real, we talked about

0:41:14.840 --> 0:41:18.560
<v Speaker 1>this earlier as well. Coach Peterson, for some reason, as

0:41:18.640 --> 0:41:21.000
<v Speaker 1>good a coach as he is, I think he really

0:41:21.080 --> 0:41:24.279
<v Speaker 1>did misread this game. I think he put his quarterback

0:41:24.960 --> 0:41:29.400
<v Speaker 1>in a tough position than tougher position than he should have,

0:41:30.080 --> 0:41:31.799
<v Speaker 1>as we talked about I should have. I think they

0:41:31.840 --> 0:41:34.600
<v Speaker 1>should have leaned on the running game more against the

0:41:34.680 --> 0:41:38.080
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys defense that hadn't really shown it can stop it.

0:41:38.719 --> 0:41:40.320
<v Speaker 1>I think he kind of fell in love with what

0:41:40.520 --> 0:41:43.799
<v Speaker 1>Hush did the last couple of weeks, thinking it would

0:41:43.840 --> 0:41:47.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of be that simple to develop, and it really didn't.

0:41:48.480 --> 0:41:51.920
<v Speaker 1>Just the game itself was different. The Cowboys were playing differently.

0:41:52.000 --> 0:41:56.479
<v Speaker 1>We improved, We actually made some adjustments in the second half,

0:41:56.960 --> 0:41:59.960
<v Speaker 1>and really I think the second quarter that I don't

0:42:00.080 --> 0:42:03.799
<v Speaker 1>think Peterson really adjusted well too offensively. So to put

0:42:03.880 --> 0:42:07.400
<v Speaker 1>your rookie quarterback who was just starting at his third game,

0:42:07.920 --> 0:42:10.720
<v Speaker 1>when you're looking at defense that they'd been playing thirteen

0:42:10.840 --> 0:42:15.440
<v Speaker 1>fourteen games already, he really tried to he expected too

0:42:15.600 --> 0:42:19.440
<v Speaker 1>much from his quarterback, or he expected too little from

0:42:19.440 --> 0:42:22.080
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys defense, you know. And I thought that it

0:42:22.239 --> 0:42:25.160
<v Speaker 1>still looked back at the key thing was getting a lead,

0:42:25.640 --> 0:42:28.759
<v Speaker 1>because then you knew what they had to do right.

0:42:29.239 --> 0:42:31.960
<v Speaker 1>And once they got that lead and they got them

0:42:32.040 --> 0:42:35.200
<v Speaker 1>in a couple down in distances, especially on second and

0:42:35.280 --> 0:42:37.799
<v Speaker 1>long or third and long, they went to a three

0:42:37.920 --> 0:42:42.839
<v Speaker 1>man front rushing the quarterback and brought in six dbs.

0:42:43.160 --> 0:42:46.000
<v Speaker 1>One of those was C. J. Goodwin, who was kind

0:42:46.040 --> 0:42:49.480
<v Speaker 1>of hovering closer to the line of scrimmage and just

0:42:49.680 --> 0:42:52.759
<v Speaker 1>kind of keeping an eye on Hurts, making sure they

0:42:52.840 --> 0:42:56.120
<v Speaker 1>had somebody there fast enough to kind of keep up

0:42:56.200 --> 0:42:58.920
<v Speaker 1>with them. And I think that's why you saw some

0:42:59.080 --> 0:43:03.160
<v Speaker 1>of those runs times outside kind of shut down and

0:43:03.280 --> 0:43:06.000
<v Speaker 1>he wasn't gaining as many yards because I think at

0:43:06.080 --> 0:43:09.720
<v Speaker 1>halftime he might have had the majority of his rushing

0:43:09.800 --> 0:43:11.920
<v Speaker 1>yards if I can look this up real quick after

0:43:12.040 --> 0:43:14.800
<v Speaker 1>I said it. But but really, when you when you

0:43:14.880 --> 0:43:19.480
<v Speaker 1>look at the adjustments that were made, I thought that

0:43:20.440 --> 0:43:24.319
<v Speaker 1>good were not only spied, but they seemed to take

0:43:24.440 --> 0:43:28.520
<v Speaker 1>liberties and when they would go from spying to just

0:43:28.719 --> 0:43:32.880
<v Speaker 1>being an extra rushing because they came late. Sometimes sometimes

0:43:32.960 --> 0:43:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Goodman will walk up and he's looking for Hurst to

0:43:35.920 --> 0:43:39.359
<v Speaker 1>maybe peek out from the pocket. And but there were

0:43:39.440 --> 0:43:41.600
<v Speaker 1>also times when it seems like he took a chance

0:43:41.920 --> 0:43:44.239
<v Speaker 1>and just took a shot at it. And I think

0:43:44.320 --> 0:43:47.480
<v Speaker 1>all of that just confused a young, young quarterback. And

0:43:47.719 --> 0:43:51.759
<v Speaker 1>really at that time we were already in control. And

0:43:52.000 --> 0:43:54.400
<v Speaker 1>then for me second week in Ago, I mean, we

0:43:54.480 --> 0:43:57.520
<v Speaker 1>could go more than that. But I thought Keller Moore

0:43:58.040 --> 0:44:02.520
<v Speaker 1>did a very good job of calling plays within himself.

0:44:03.120 --> 0:44:06.239
<v Speaker 1>You know, he didn't ask for anyone to do too much.

0:44:06.760 --> 0:44:11.400
<v Speaker 1>He didn't take too many gambles. He stayed with within

0:44:12.120 --> 0:44:18.920
<v Speaker 1>uh Dalton's ability to run the team. That play to

0:44:19.040 --> 0:44:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Ceedee Lamb, that was really a set up play. That's

0:44:24.280 --> 0:44:28.120
<v Speaker 1>the kind of coaching that I love from offensive coordinators.

0:44:28.560 --> 0:44:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Ceedee Lamb had run that same route over and over

0:44:31.200 --> 0:44:32.960
<v Speaker 1>again to where he just went out to the flat,

0:44:33.440 --> 0:44:36.359
<v Speaker 1>went out to the flat. Here it is the perfect time.

0:44:36.760 --> 0:44:39.680
<v Speaker 1>We're on the other side close for the fifty yard line.

0:44:40.480 --> 0:44:42.960
<v Speaker 1>Ceedee faced the out after he came in motion, went

0:44:43.000 --> 0:44:47.240
<v Speaker 1>straight up the field. Perfect pass by Dalton. He didn't

0:44:47.280 --> 0:44:49.839
<v Speaker 1>wait too long. He threw it right way and need

0:44:49.920 --> 0:44:54.440
<v Speaker 1>to be simple pitch, pitch and catch and there you are.

0:44:54.719 --> 0:44:57.399
<v Speaker 1>You're looking at what was that a fifty sixty yard

0:44:57.480 --> 0:45:01.040
<v Speaker 1>touchdown by Ceedee Lamb And to me, that was all

0:45:01.440 --> 0:45:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Keller Moore. He just really did a good job of

0:45:04.840 --> 0:45:07.400
<v Speaker 1>making the plays that didn't put our offense and to

0:45:07.560 --> 0:45:10.440
<v Speaker 1>carryous situations. Yeah, and what they did on that plays

0:45:10.480 --> 0:45:12.840
<v Speaker 1>they put him in motion left to right and they

0:45:12.960 --> 0:45:16.359
<v Speaker 1>motioned them into the slot and as you pointed out,

0:45:16.560 --> 0:45:18.800
<v Speaker 1>it looked like he was gonna just go up field.

0:45:18.880 --> 0:45:21.080
<v Speaker 1>But basically what he did is he ran a wheel

0:45:21.160 --> 0:45:24.279
<v Speaker 1>route for with a white and he went to the outside.

0:45:24.680 --> 0:45:28.880
<v Speaker 1>The outside guy came inside and all that poor as

0:45:28.960 --> 0:45:31.719
<v Speaker 1>Jacque kiss and then occupied the safety. That's what was

0:45:31.760 --> 0:45:34.440
<v Speaker 1>the right The guy inside took the safety out of

0:45:34.480 --> 0:45:38.359
<v Speaker 1>the safety so that desk right, kept the safety out

0:45:38.440 --> 0:45:40.360
<v Speaker 1>of it, and that's when you hit him right in

0:45:40.440 --> 0:45:43.200
<v Speaker 1>that pocket. And but that was You know, plays like

0:45:43.360 --> 0:45:46.160
<v Speaker 1>that they can work on anybody. I don't give a

0:45:46.239 --> 0:45:49.399
<v Speaker 1>dog on who the defensive defensive play there that can

0:45:49.480 --> 0:45:53.600
<v Speaker 1>work on anyone. So you're talking about quality plays to

0:45:53.840 --> 0:45:56.319
<v Speaker 1>quality players. That's what I love about. And that poor

0:45:56.440 --> 0:45:59.520
<v Speaker 1>corner he got spun around like he was doing pirouettes

0:45:59.560 --> 0:46:03.040
<v Speaker 1>on that figure skating. He got spun around so bad.

0:46:03.200 --> 0:46:06.239
<v Speaker 1>Been there, done that. I know the feeling. And by

0:46:06.320 --> 0:46:09.239
<v Speaker 1>the way, Hurts had fifty three of his sixty nine

0:46:09.360 --> 0:46:12.800
<v Speaker 1>yards rushing in the first half, get a lead and

0:46:12.880 --> 0:46:15.479
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden, Okay, all that running's not gonna

0:46:15.800 --> 0:46:18.839
<v Speaker 1>not gonna work out. So um, you know, for all

0:46:18.920 --> 0:46:23.279
<v Speaker 1>the criticism Mike Nolan has gotten, uh, they adjusted and

0:46:24.320 --> 0:46:27.520
<v Speaker 1>thought finally been on his butt. Yeah, absolutely, yes, So

0:46:27.640 --> 0:46:32.200
<v Speaker 1>you gotta give him give him credit, absolutely yes. Turnovers,

0:46:32.480 --> 0:46:36.800
<v Speaker 1>the turnovers the past three four weeks have skyrocketed, And

0:46:36.960 --> 0:46:38.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't care, I've been there, I don't care what

0:46:39.160 --> 0:46:42.400
<v Speaker 1>your defense is giving up. If you can make turnovers,

0:46:42.840 --> 0:46:44.680
<v Speaker 1>it makes up for all of the yards that you

0:46:44.760 --> 0:46:47.200
<v Speaker 1>gave up. Shocking when you can have your top four

0:46:47.320 --> 0:46:51.000
<v Speaker 1>corners available and at one time on the field at

0:46:51.160 --> 0:46:56.719
<v Speaker 1>all at the same time. Amazing, m interesting. That's right,

0:46:57.400 --> 0:47:00.560
<v Speaker 1>all right, Well that does it for a Victory Monday

0:47:00.960 --> 0:47:04.200
<v Speaker 1>edition of mix Shots. We got so much to get

0:47:04.239 --> 0:47:06.560
<v Speaker 1>to we could go for another hour or two, but

0:47:07.400 --> 0:47:13.960
<v Speaker 1>the shot clock has gotten us. Oh no, and so

0:47:14.160 --> 0:47:17.560
<v Speaker 1>let's leff break before Chris gets pissed off. Now, that's

0:47:17.680 --> 0:47:20.080
<v Speaker 1>that's right, that's right, okay, and you will see you
