But this is Mick Shots inside the SWBC 15 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,480 Speaker 4: podcast studio. We've already had a Mike McCarthy press conference today. 16 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 4: We have football equipment on a football field and we 17 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 4: will have football players out there as well, and hopefully 18 00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 4: they have the ivs ready today. 19 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: It's pretty warm, it is, and it's going to be warm. 20 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:07,839 Speaker 1: It's supposed to be ninety one today. It's October twenty third, 21 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: ninety one. It's already eighty five. 22 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 4: By the way. It's toasty out there, and it just 23 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 4: seems like the ninety one degree you know, if it 24 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 4: was July twentieth ninety one degrees. Welcome it exactly. IVS 25 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 4: would not be required. There's something about ninety one degrees 26 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 4: on October twenty third that makes it more difficult to 27 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 4: stand the heat. 28 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: As you can tell, they haven't taken down the tent 29 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: out there that they put that's the air conditioned tent 30 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: with has a lot of ice in it just in case. 31 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: So yeah, they been watching the weather and said, no, 32 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: we got to have that maybe till November before we 33 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: take it down. 34 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 4: And tomorrow's supposed to be similar heat. So I'm assuming 35 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 4: coach McCarthy he always wants to be outside as much 36 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 4: as possible. Does he like this heat? 37 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: It shouldn't be hot in San Francisco. 38 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 4: Shope should not be and. 39 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:13,359 Speaker 1: He probably doesn't like all the eyeballs that will be 40 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: on practice also, by the way, so we'll see what happens. 41 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,119 Speaker 4: All the eyeballs that will be Oh oh, I got 42 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 4: it has nothing to do with the heat, but it 43 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 4: has to do with twelve story buildings or however, all. 44 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: These buildings are exactly I think. I think at times, 45 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: I think even Jason went inside just to cautionary. 46 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 4: But they're prepared to be outside today. Yeah, so you 47 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 4: have a prediction they if they go inside tomorrow. It 48 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 4: will not be because of the heat. 49 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: But they'll say it'll be because of the Yeah, there 50 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: you go absolutely all right. 51 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 4: What did you gather from Mike McCarthy's press conference today? 52 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 4: Get us up to speed and what we need to know. 53 00:02:55,200 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: Well, let's start with his brief injury report. He said 54 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons would be with the rehab group at least 55 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: start with the rehab group, so we'll see where that goes. 56 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: He didn't sound really hopeful on Monday that he would 57 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: be back ready to play. He said it was still 58 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: up in the air that he needed to see test 59 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: his acceleration. So I think they're going to be cautious 60 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 1: there and that may be one that you just go, Okay, 61 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: let's see what happens as we go forward and try 62 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: to get him to the game. Doron Bland, who was 63 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: close to playing against Detroit until his foot grew sore 64 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: from the activity of practice the previous two days, said 65 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: he's going to start off participating in practice on a 66 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: limited basis, so they're going to try to ease him 67 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: back in Kaylin Carson and still with the rehab group 68 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: with that shoulder, and you know that shoulder sounded like, well, Okay, 69 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: you know, he'll be back in a week or so, 70 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: and now it's almost close to a month if he 71 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: doesn't get back for this game, so we'll see what 72 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: goes there. And then I thought the significant one, not 73 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: that the others aren't. Eric Kendricks said he would be limited, 74 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: so I assume that meant limited in practice here he's 75 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: been running, so we'll see where that one goes. That 76 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: would be very good if they could get him back 77 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: on the field. Although Dmoon Clark didn't play all that bad. 78 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: I just think that with Kendricks out there, you have, 79 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: you have your director out there, and I think that 80 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,679 Speaker 1: speaks volumes for what he could. 81 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 4: Add, especially against Kyle Shanahan's offense. 82 00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: Right, yeah, exactly. So that's where they were with guys 83 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 1: that can get back. I hear that not Osa Marshawn 84 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: Kneelan is looking good in his rehab, So maybe when 85 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 1: his four weeks or four games are up, you know, 86 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: you might be able to get him back on the field. 87 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: Would certainly help the defensive end group if he comes 88 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:31,679 Speaker 1: back and he's you know, healthy enough to get going. 89 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: Said an interesting thing when he was talking about the. 90 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 4: Ring and By the way, Kneeland has a knee injury. 91 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: Knee injury, right, and he had I think he had 92 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: its scope too. It sounded like so he's off crutches 93 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: and walking around and sounds like he's doing better than 94 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: maybe expected. Uh. He talked about the running game and uh, 95 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: you know, the question was something reference to what Jerry 96 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: said about run concepts and run plays that were bad. 97 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: And he said, I don't think we have bad concepts 98 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: or bad plays. I'll just leave it as that. But 99 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 1: he went on to say he pointed out the Detroit 100 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 1: game and he said, the first run of the game, 101 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: he said, we had the wrong declaration. So I'm assuming 102 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: that meant the blocking scheme. And I went back and 103 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: looked at it, and you know, you don't know what 104 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 1: everybody's supposed to do. But the play I saw it 105 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: was a run to rico'dondell and he was going right 106 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: and it was a one yard game and the linebacker 107 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 1: was able to make the play. And Angeloni is that 108 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: the angel Azeloni? Yeah, Angeloni was a neighbor of ours 109 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: time ago. Uh. Anyway, it looked like Cooper Bebee Uh 110 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: spent too much time doubling the defensive tackle and he 111 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: didn't get to the linebacker in time, and the linebacker 112 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: was able to scrape off and make the play. So 113 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: there's a lot of things in the running game that 114 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: I think people don't recognize that have to take place 115 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: to make the run work, and it's not all on 116 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: the running back. So I thought that was interesting one. 117 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: I went back and looked at, uh looked at that one. 118 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: The other thing that I think they're going to change 119 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: up more, and he he alluded to it on Monday 120 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: that they were going to change some of the individual 121 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: individual drills that they had been doing and doing more 122 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: group drills. So it sounds like they're going to have 123 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: more competitive periods in the practices the next two days 124 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: than they normally have. And when I say competitive periods, 125 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: I mean the first defense against the first offense, not 126 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: against the scout team. So that's one of those things 127 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: that I think that they're going to try to change 128 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: up and get more as competitive as you're allowed to 129 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: be in practice, knowing that they need to deal with 130 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: some of those concepts better than just going against the 131 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 1: scout team when you're just basically got brother lawing going 132 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: on in those plays because you're just practicing plays, you're 133 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: not really competing. 134 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 4: I'm going back watching. I know, I'm going back watching 135 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 4: the first play of the game, and they had Angeloni 136 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 4: and Campbell, two inside linebackers, and I assume when they're 137 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 4: making the declarations declaring who the middle linebacker is, he 138 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 4: is at thirty four, is at forty six, and watching 139 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 4: it it and you know, because you've gone back and 140 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 4: looked at it, Babe did not go get the middle linebacker. 141 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 4: He had a nose tackle that was shaded on him. 142 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 4: There started as a double and Angeloni was free to 143 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 4: run to make the tackle right right. 144 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: So I'm thinking the blocking might have been needed to 145 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: go more to the right and not worry about that 146 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: defensive tackle because he wasn't going to be in the 147 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: play where the play was going. And then Angeloni ends 148 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: up making the tackle and there was no hole there. 149 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: If the linebacker wasn't there, they could have been a hole. 150 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: But it was a one yard game. You know, when 151 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: I went back, and this is one thing that we 152 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: forget is if you look at that first drive of 153 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: the game, in its total that ended up in a 154 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: field goal, they went fifty two yards in six plays, 155 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: so they were moving right down the field, and then 156 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: when they bogged down at first and ten at the eighteen, 157 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: when they tried the quick short pass to CD, it 158 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:12,319 Speaker 1: was two yards. Dak tried to throw it into the 159 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: end zone. It was incomplete to CD, and then on 160 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: third down they threw it was the whole didn't matter 161 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: what the play was. Zach Martin got called for holding 162 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: and so it was declined because it was an incomplete pass. 163 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: And now you're kicking a field goal. So they got 164 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: to the eighteen and then gained two yards. That just 165 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: can't happen. And that's definitely kind of what happened. And 166 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 1: even on the second play, the dB just grabbed Lamb's 167 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 1: hands and didn't, you know, let him make a move 168 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: to be able to pick up the pick up the pass. 169 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: So yeah, and so then you know, things snowball because 170 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: then you give up a touchdown. And I looked at 171 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: the touchdown and they just got blown off the line 172 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: on that sixteen yard run. And Donovan Wilson was sort 173 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: of late coming up, but he was playing single safety 174 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: high and he didn't quite get there. And Leo file 175 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: was they were in three linebackers and he was the 176 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 1: linebacker to the left and I don't know if they 177 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: expected him to cut across like that and make that 178 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: tackle because he was unblocked. But they're just little things 179 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: like that. You got to get right. You cannot you know, 180 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: you cannot make those mistakes. So that's one of the 181 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: things I think they're going to be working on. And 182 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: when we mentioned the declarations that the offensive line has 183 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: to adjust when you see the defense, you know how 184 00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: the defense at last minute'll shift over one way or another. Well, 185 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: now that changes your boxing scheme. You don't have time 186 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: to call it, but you've got to instinctively know where 187 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: you're going. 188 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 4: And that's where the lack of experience or lack of 189 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 4: experience alongside each other place a factor. 190 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, you know, and in that game, you're you're 191 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: you know, left guards playing left tackle. You got to 192 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 1: basically a second year free agent playing left guard and 193 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: a rookie playing center. Uh that that's a lot of 194 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: movement that you got to get straight. He also thought 195 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: that Geiton wouldn't be ready. 196 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 4: That was where I was going, That was where I 197 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 4: was doing next. I was about to say. 198 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: He should be ready to jump into Since. 199 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 4: We've gotten updates on these other injured players who have 200 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 4: missed games, and in fact, even Jerry said yesterday probably 201 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,599 Speaker 4: be a game time decision on Sunday whether Parsons and 202 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 4: Bland will be able to go. And I don't remember 203 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 4: if he included Kendricks in that or not, but because 204 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 4: you have to look at how they recover from the 205 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 4: previous day's work. But I think you buried the lead 206 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 4: because Tyler Geiton being back at practice. 207 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: Well it got buried in my list of questions here 208 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: because it finally got asked, right. 209 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 4: But specifically this offensive line and the biggest issue I 210 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 4: think that this team is having right now is what's 211 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 4: going on up front on the offensive line, and they've 212 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 4: got to get their five guys out there, and that 213 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 4: means getting Tyler. If Tyler Geiton is going to be 214 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,559 Speaker 4: your first round draft pick playing, he needs to be playing, 215 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,719 Speaker 4: not just on Sunday, but he needs to be out 216 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 4: there on Wednesday. 217 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: And he said about his health, he said he'll be 218 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: ready to go full participation, meaning for today, so you know, 219 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: and he was asked about Geiton and where he's at, 220 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: and he goes he needs to take a huge step 221 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 1: in his comfort, He needs to rely on his talent 222 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: and understand that you can do this, he said, you know, 223 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: and he doesn't want him. I think the quote was 224 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 1: don't want him to spend a whole lot of time 225 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: in the valley, meaning all. 226 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 4: Right, you're going to get beat on plays. That's the valley, right, 227 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 4: but don't spend time there. It's like a cornerback. You 228 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 4: got to get the last play and get ready for 229 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 4: the next week, like a. 230 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: Golfer, like Tony Romo taught us about golf and football, 231 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: that you got to let the last shot go and 232 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: concentrate on getting out of the rough on the next shot. 233 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: Don't be belaboring the mistake. And I think that's probably 234 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: a thing a young guy will do, is just sit 235 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: there and beat himself up, knowing that he made a 236 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: mistake or got beat. Well, you can't let that getting 237 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: beat beat you on the next. 238 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 4: Play, which is basically what Natan Frisco has been saying 239 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 4: about him. 240 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: Relax, right, okay, just move on. 241 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 4: All right, we got much more to get to.

It's a new expanded committee that is going 298 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 4: through all of the quote unquote senior candidates. These are 299 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 4: players in the NFL whose last season was nineteen ninety 300 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 4: nine or before. And so they they're trying to make 301 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 4: sure that they haven't missed anybody through the years last century. 302 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 4: So and they've done it by even expanding the committee 303 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 4: to and so they started with how many one and eighty, 304 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 4: one hundred and eighty something like that. 305 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: And then they reduced it to sixty. 306 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 4: Yep, And so yesterday they announced it's down to thirty one. 307 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 4: Are they calling it semifinalist or or maybe the semifinalist 308 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 4: or the next round. Yeah, in a couple of weeks, 309 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,880 Speaker 4: two or three weeks, they'll get it down to ten. 310 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: Ten or twelve, Okay, then they get it to three. 311 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 4: Okay, But two former Cowboys are in the list of 312 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 4: thirty one. One is Everson Walls and the other Harvey Martin. 313 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 4: And it's about and there's going to be three that 314 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 4: will be given to the committee, right which take the 315 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 4: final rubber stamp YEP, which is typically a rubber stamp. 316 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 1: So they're kind of listening to this committee now. 317 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 4: So it started with one hundred and eighty six or 318 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 4: something like that, and they're going to whittle it down 319 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 4: to three to give to the final committee at the 320 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 4: Hall of Fame voting. 321 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: And I'm sure Everson, after having gone through all this, 322 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,439 Speaker 1: is sitting there going, yeah, okay, well just call me. 323 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: I think he's passed getting emotionally invested in it, just 324 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: from the disappointment that I think he's felt over the years. 325 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 1: We'll let him speak about that. But look, here's the 326 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: deal on this Pro Football Hall of Fame. Too many 327 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: decisions are made on statistics and analytics, not stories. And 328 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 1: I think to me, the responsibility of the voters is 329 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 1: to preserve the stories of the NFL, and you do 330 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 1: that by putting players like Everson Walls into the Pro 331 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 1: Football Hall of Fame. It's not all about how many 332 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: Super Bowls you won or didn't win. It's not all 333 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: about how many interceptions you had or different didn't had. 334 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: It's about the story of a guy that had eleven 335 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:48,640 Speaker 1: interceptions in his rookie year of nineteen eighty one and 336 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: forty three years later, let that sink in. Forty three 337 00:20:54,000 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: years later, nobody has ever had more than eleven interceptions 338 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: in a single season. As a matter of fact, Trayvon 339 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: Diggs a couple of years ago is the only one 340 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: to have had eleven and match it. So things like 341 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: that need to pre preserved. On how unique his accomplishment 342 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 1: has been. And the fact that he led the NFL 343 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: in interceptions three times, which. 344 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 4: One only tied by Ed reed Is. It's tied for 345 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:32,919 Speaker 4: the most times to lead in interceptions ed Reid, and. 346 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 1: One of those was during the strike season when he 347 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: ended up with in nine games, he had seven interceptions 348 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 1: and there's no telling how many he would have finished 349 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 1: in that year too. 350 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 4: But even if you just do the stats on it, 351 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 4: he's got fifty seven conceptions in his career, I know, 352 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,679 Speaker 4: which is like almost doubling the field. 353 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: And the fact that, by the way, he did win 354 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl playing for the Giants. And then the 355 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: other thing is is part of Everson's story And look, 356 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: I know he's on our show, but he donated a 357 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 1: kidney to a former teammate. Who does that? And I 358 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 1: think that's part of the story that the NFL, the 359 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 1: Pro Football Hall of Fame has to capture. When they 360 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 1: put the little bios in the highlights of a guy's career, 361 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: that's part of his life and and I think it 362 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,120 Speaker 1: gets ignored. And there's too many people that are voting 363 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: that no idea or never seen Everson play, And I 364 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: think it's just a it's just a crime that he 365 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: can't get into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. 366 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 4: They should go ask Bill Belichick, right Christmas, Belichick game 367 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 4: up to Gilbrandt several years ago at the Hall of 368 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:57,239 Speaker 4: Fame after Hall of Fame ceremony and said, we need 369 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 4: to get Everson in into the Hall of Fame. And 370 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 4: of course he played for Belichick, not only with the Giants, 371 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 4: but also with the Cleveland Browns and back in what 372 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 4: I think was ever probably ever since second to last 373 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 4: season when he was I think it was with Cleveland, 374 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 4: maybe it was Giants. He was actually sort of the 375 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 4: quarterback on the field. He was, he was the play 376 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 4: caller basically on the field. If the green dot back 377 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 4: in those days, Everson would have been the one wearing 378 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 4: the green dot when he converted over to safety. 379 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:34,640 Speaker 1: And if you just look at his story to the NFL. 380 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 1: Out of high school, he decides to go to Grambling, right, 381 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if he got a scholarship. He'll tell 382 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 1: you the reason he went there because what turned out 383 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: to be his future wife, His girlfriend was going to Grambling, 384 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: and so he decided, Okay, I'm going to Grambling and 385 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: he plays Think about the guys he's played for, Eddie Robinson, 386 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: Tom Landry, Bill Parson, Cells and Belichick in his career, 387 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: Jimmy and Jimmy for one year. That's pretty good, right, 388 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: And so uh yeah, you know, and and I think 389 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: Jimmy has come to grips with what took place and 390 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: how uh you know, and finally sort of apologized to 391 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: him for his reaction to that play or to the 392 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: play ragizing right. 393 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 4: So anyway, by the way, the defensive backs that are 394 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 4: in this final thirty one pretty good back defensive backfield, 395 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 4: which includes Lester Hayes, Albert Lewis, Eddie Medder and Everson Walls. 396 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 4: That is a pretty good and in fact, Albert Lewis 397 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 4: went to Grambling and so and he was a couple 398 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 4: of years behind Everson, I believe we'll talk more about 399 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 4: it tomorrow with Everson and then Harvey Martin's the other one. Yeah, 400 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 4: that is well deserved and and. 401 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: With you know what happens with a lot of these guys. 402 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 1: They end up and it's great that they get in, 403 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 1: but it's sad sometimes that they don't get in until 404 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: they pass away or they're not really kind of with 405 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 1: us to be able to go and enjoy that. I 406 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 1: think that happened with Holly Chuck Collie when he finally 407 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: got in as a senior unable to attend the ceremony 408 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 1: for health reasons, and his son did a fine job 409 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: of stepping in for him. So yeah, that's one of 410 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: those things that they just got to get right, all. 411 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 4: Right, And elsewhere around the league more trades, another one 412 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 4: involving a wide receiver, as the Kansas City Chiefs reportedly 413 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 4: are acquiring DeAndre Hopkins from the Hapless in the Sea 414 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 4: Titans for a condition condition fourth. 415 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: Yes, well, Kansas City is baically out of wide receivers. 416 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 1: They just had to put Rashi Rice on injured reserve. 417 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 1: Marquise Hollywood Brown is already out for the season, and 418 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 1: Juju's shuster. 419 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 4: To forget the Smith, Juju Smith's Juju. 420 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: Smith Schuster, Juju Shuster, you. 421 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,360 Speaker 4: Don't you don't say Kareem Jabbarji. 422 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. Uh. He is out with a hamstring and may 423 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 1: not be able to play this week, So they're looking 424 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: at bringing in Hopkins. He's thirty two, final year of 425 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: a two year deal. How about this, He had signed 426 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: a two year deal for thirty three million with Tennessee, 427 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: which I use as a cautionary tale of every time 428 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: somebody sees a name available, they don't judge about how 429 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: they're playing. They're judged by their name. And I don't 430 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: know that Tennessee got their money's worth, and they're going 431 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: to have a heck of a lot of dead money. 432 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 4: But we really don't know what Hopkins has left because 433 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 4: of the quarterback situation. 434 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: Well to this and that's true too. But what here's 435 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: the top two. If the three receivers I just mentioned 436 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: for Kansas City, their next top two receivers is Xavier 437 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 1: Worthy rookie and Justin Watson so far have combined over 438 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: seven games for twenty two are they six? They're six 439 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: and zero twenty two catches between those two guys, and 440 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: those are the guys that have to step up. And 441 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 1: obviously Kansas City did have some problems throwing the football, 442 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: even though they were able to win that game on Sunday, 443 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: So that's one of the reasons why they're looking for that, 444 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 1: and they are going to if they do the trade, 445 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 1: they're going to be on the books for nine to 446 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:25,439 Speaker 1: eighteenths of fifteen million dollars, so seven and a half million. 447 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 4: So but if you look at Hopkins, I mean, just 448 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 4: look at his history of quarterbacks here, recent history of 449 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 4: quarterback play with him had to play for Okay, so 450 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 4: he's been with Tennessee this year with will Levis, last 451 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 4: year with Tennessee, and even the last half of the 452 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two season in Arizona. Kyler Murray was hurt, right, 453 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 4: and so they had backup quarterbacks that were out there So, 454 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 4: I mean last year at Tennessee, Tannehill started eight games. 455 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 4: Will Levis started eight games. And so that's what you're 456 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 4: dealing with. So it'll be interesting. Now he's got to 457 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 4: be just going. He gets to go to Kansas City. 458 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: Now he might he might run there. 459 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, and so anyway, that'll be interesting to see what 460 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 4: he does in that Chiefs offense. But getting back to 461 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 4: the Cowboys and at the wide receiver position, this is 462 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 4: a big game for them to see if these young 463 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 4: guys can can step up even more than what they 464 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 4: have been with Brandon Cook still out for the least 465 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 4: the next couple of weeks. 466 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: Still, yeah, and he is. He's doing much better. He's 467 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: able to do some rehab stuff now. But you know, 468 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: when you have an infection like that, the guy's on 469 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: an IV and that that's serious stuff. I can vouch 470 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: for that, by the way. And and so yeah, well 471 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 1: they're gonna get him back, so they should. His four 472 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: games should be up in another week. Yeah, it happened 473 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: the New York game, so he missed Pittsburgh, he missed Detroit, 474 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: spy doesn't count. 475 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 4: Right, And so then this is San Francisco Atlanta, so 476 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 4: he could be back for Philadelphia. 477 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: Philadelphia, correct, So you got that guy coming back, and 478 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: remember you pay these guys, so you know the salary 479 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: cap comes into question there when when you say, well, 480 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: just go get that guy, all right, Well that would 481 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 1: be nice, but at some point you do need to continue, 482 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: as Nate would tell you, playing these young guys and 483 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 1: getting them experience. I think Tolbert is getting better, but 484 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: then when you get to the third guy you're looking 485 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: at Jalen Brooks, Cavante Turpin, and we mentioned this Yesterdaly Floyd, 486 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: Noi Floy Illinois Floy not floor right, Illinoy. I'll get 487 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: it at some point maybe when he catches about what 488 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: he catches, it doesn't it doesn't fumble. 489 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's when you'll startle. 490 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: You hate that, right, your first NFL catch and you 491 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: get punched out. 492 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 4: So you mentioned Tolbert. Who else did you mention Turpin? Yeah, Brooks, 493 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 4: Jalm Brooks and then Ryan Flinoy, Ryan Illinoy. 494 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: That's it, right, that's the wide receiver crew. 495 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 4: It's basically it. 496 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: And that's a lot of young guys with not much experience. 497 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 4: By the way, that's a lot on CDs. 498 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: So CD. Yeah, and what do you think defenses are 499 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: thinking he ain't beating me. Let these other guys step 500 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: up and beat me. And it has to do with 501 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think Troy was totally out of 502 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: line when he pointed out about the the routes UH 503 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: and the ability to separate and get open. And it 504 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: takes time for young guys to figure some of that 505 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: stuff out. And so I don't know that the Cowboys 506 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: thought they needed to go do something. You just kind of, 507 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, hold your breath until Brooks gets I mean, 508 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: Cooks gets back, and try to do the best you can. 509 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: But still, the one thing that's got to get better 510 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: and and improve along the way is that run game 511 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: and being able to stop San Francisco from running the football, 512 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: and they have not done that in the three games 513 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: that that they've lost consecutively. You know that that series. 514 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if I pointed this out yesterday, but 515 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: it was like, in this series, San Francisco has won 516 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: the last three games. That's right, I had this here. 517 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 4: Tell you what when we come back on Mixshaw, I'll 518 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 4: do it, Mickey.

So that's why it 573 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:22,840 Speaker 4: was announced as a conditional fourth round pick because until 574 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,280 Speaker 4: proven otherwise, Kangas City's headed to the super Bowl. Titans 575 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 4: will also pay two and a half million dollars of 576 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 4: Hopkins contract. 577 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 1: Oh so basically they're absorbing a some dead money and 578 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: paying two million of I think it was five maybe 579 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,359 Speaker 1: five million that was left on his base something like that. 580 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 1: So yeah, you you incur money, but you only get 581 00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:01,760 Speaker 1: at best the fourth round pick. So maybe they value 582 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 1: the pick that much that the money doesn't cap money doesn't. 583 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 4: Matter, and they obviously figured that they weren't going to 584 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,400 Speaker 4: get a better offer than that if they waited. And 585 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 4: maybe I don't know what Hopkins attitude was around the building, 586 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 4: but yeah, they may have decided and we we don't need, 587 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,760 Speaker 4: don't need to have him hanging around for a couple 588 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 4: more weeks. So anyway, all right, so if there, Jerry 589 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 4: has been adamant basically that they're not active as far 590 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 4: as any moves right now. But if there was a 591 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:47,360 Speaker 4: position to enhance for a and i'll say for a 592 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 4: third day draft pick, what position would that be? 593 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 1: No? 594 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 4: One right now? What the injury situation is when you're 595 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 4: getting guys back, as you can kind of basically look 596 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,320 Speaker 4: at it. That Cooks is coming back in a trade. 597 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 4: By the Philadelphia game, you're adding him, I would say. 598 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 1: At this point, waiting defensive end m H. I know 599 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:28,320 Speaker 1: at some point either this week or next week, you'll 600 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:36,240 Speaker 1: you'll get Michael Parsons back, but Nilan and DeMarcus Lawrence 601 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 1: are Thanksgiving probably, I'm thinking that's a long time ye away. 602 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 1: And if I needed immediate help, that would be it. 603 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: But who's giving up a defensive end that can create sacks? 604 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: That's a tough one. 605 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 4: You know what people are shouting running back? No, as 606 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 4: far as defensive ends. Oh, Max Crosby. 607 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: Why is he unhappy? 608 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:07,960 Speaker 4: He's Yes? 609 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 1: Did anybody before they shout? Look at how much it 610 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 1: would cost? 611 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 4: I just let his cap hit for twenty twenty five 612 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 4: is twenty eight point two million dollars. Well, his cap 613 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,439 Speaker 4: hit for twenty twenty six shrinks to twenty four point 614 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 4: eight million dollars? 615 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:29,320 Speaker 1: And how much would you incur this year? Probably half 616 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 1: of his is a bao. 617 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 4: It was a he signed in twenty twenty two March 618 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 4: of twenty twenty two, a four year, ninety four million 619 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 4: dollar contract. 620 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:48,399 Speaker 1: Does it have his base? 621 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 4: But anyway, I just I just present that as right, Yeah, 622 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,240 Speaker 4: as a joke more than anything. 623 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 1: Well, that's a good bill. Oh and to finish what 624 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 1: I was saying. And so San Francisco has won the 625 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:07,360 Speaker 1: last three straight. Prior to that, the Cowboys had beaten 626 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 1: San Francisco six of seven games. So it's been a 627 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 1: like streaks because at one point. 628 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,240 Speaker 4: So the current streak is three three. 629 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:22,840 Speaker 1: Straight two playoff games in a regular season game. Is 630 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: that what it is? 631 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just that the playoff games seem to carry 632 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 4: more weight. 633 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,839 Speaker 1: Well, No, it's the thirty eight point loss last year 634 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: that carries more weight. I mean that they were at 635 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 1: least competitive in the playoffs games they got beat twenty three, 636 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: seventeen and nineteen twelve. 637 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 4: In nineteen twelve, nineteen twelve. 638 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: That's a long time ago, isn't it. But the series 639 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 1: has been a yeah streak. 640 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 4: You're right, Okay, So the Cowboys won three in a 641 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 4: row twenty sixteen through twenty twenty. The Niners have won 642 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 4: three in a row from twenty two to twenty three. 643 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 4: So it's time to start a Cowboys streak of three 644 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:09,359 Speaker 4: at a row. 645 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: And if you go way back, the Cowboys won seven 646 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 1: of eight from seventy one through eighty and then when 647 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: they lost the catch game in the no they actually 648 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 1: lost to San Francisco twice that eighty one season. Regular 649 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: season in the catch game they won six straight. Then 650 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,879 Speaker 1: the Cowboys ended up winning three straight. 651 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 4: Franc which was ninety three, ninety three, ninety four, which 652 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:37,399 Speaker 4: are pretty good. 653 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 1: Years, not bad, and then San Francisco ended up winning 654 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 1: three straight. 655 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,440 Speaker 4: What I'm finding in this the streaks is that it 656 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 4: seems like when Dallas had the better team, they were 657 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,479 Speaker 4: on a streak, and when San Francisco had the better match, 658 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 4: they're in the streak. Yeah, So who has the better 659 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 4: team this week? Considering the injuries? 660 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:07,280 Speaker 1: See, that's a tough one to side, because Brock Purty 661 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:10,320 Speaker 1: without his wide receivers looked pretty pedestrial. 662 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 4: What was that quarterback rating? 663 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: I think it was thirty four point. 664 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,840 Speaker 4: City and Mahomes combined for a forty rating. 665 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, because one was in the forties forty four maybe 666 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 1: and one was thirty six or thirty four. So yeah, 667 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:32,439 Speaker 1: the injuries, we don't talk about it, but they they 668 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:39,959 Speaker 1: do matter. And so here's the issue that I see 669 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:43,240 Speaker 1: and why this is a huge week for Tyler Geiton. 670 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:47,839 Speaker 4: It's who's lining up as edge rushers for the Niners. 671 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 4: Besides Nick Bosa Bosa, they got Leonard Floyd also. 672 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 1: Yes, and he's pretty good. And that was one of 673 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:58,879 Speaker 1: the things that Mike McCarthy pointed out, that their edge 674 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 1: guys are pretty darn good. And the other thing he 675 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 1: pointed out is Fred Warner really kind of messes up 676 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 1: your offense the way he can basically consider the best 677 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 1: middle linebacker in the league. Yeah, and the fact that 678 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: he can drop into coverage. So your call for Jake 679 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: Ferguson to do more might get neutralized by what the 680 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,320 Speaker 1: middle linebacker can do on some of those steam routes. 681 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 1: And McCarthy said, especially when you get inside the red 682 00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 1: zone and everything's condensed, he can kind of command that 683 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 1: middle of the field in the passing game. 684 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 4: To rare when a middle linebacker commands the kind of 685 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,960 Speaker 4: money that Fred Warner has a five year, ninety six 686 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 4: million dollar contract. That is rare money for an inside linebacker. 687 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 4: But he's a rare player too. 688 00:43:57,600 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 1: That's sort of like when you say the running back 689 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,240 Speaker 1: position got devalued. 690 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 4: And it's because of injuries. 691 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 1: Right, But and the middle linebacker, as we saw with 692 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: vander esh. 693 00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 4: As we saw it before with Sean Lee, and as 694 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 4: other teams see with most of their inside linebackers, it's 695 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:21,920 Speaker 4: rare that inside linebackers can stay healthy throughout a career. 696 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:22,359 Speaker 1: Right. 697 00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,279 Speaker 4: So Luke Keikley was another one who played at a 698 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:28,320 Speaker 4: Hall of Fame level and at his career cut short 699 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 4: due to concussions. 700 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 1: So so yeah, they've still even though it says three 701 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 1: and four they're still they're still pretty good, and the 702 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 1: Cowboys will have their hands full, but they need to 703 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:48,680 Speaker 1: get some of these guys back on the field. And 704 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 1: it would start with Deron Bland and Kendricks and then 705 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,240 Speaker 1: we'll see where it goes with Michael Parsons. 706 00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 4: You know, as I watch another replay of Patrick Mahomes 707 00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 4: going down the sideline a and doing ball fakes. You know, 708 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:09,400 Speaker 4: going into that game last week, Mahomes and Brock Purdy 709 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,760 Speaker 4: led the NFL. They were one and two in first 710 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 4: downs rushing by a quarterback. 711 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 1: Really, I didn't realize Perdy was doing that much running. 712 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 4: Timely, running right, you know, and basically if things break 713 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 4: down and he'll break out and get just enough yurds 714 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,320 Speaker 4: to get a first down. So it's not like zone 715 00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:36,400 Speaker 4: read stuff or anything like that, but it's there's a 716 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,200 Speaker 4: lot of It's like what Mahomes does. 717 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: Well, and he's been I don't either know if it's 718 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: fortunate or crafty enough to run and not take big hits, 719 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:53,439 Speaker 1: unlike Jaden Daniels, right got flipped up in the air 720 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 1: or whatever, rolled around and gets injured. Got to be 721 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 1: careful running the foot football, and I'll guarantee you next 722 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 1: time Mahomes goes tip toeing down the sideline, somebody's going 723 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:08,799 Speaker 1: to think it's worth fifteen yards to go nail them. 724 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:14,880 Speaker 4: Well, better be careful. That's a reason that people forget 725 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 4: that RG three was like a rookie of the year 726 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:21,239 Speaker 4: his rookie season with Washington, right, and then he had 727 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 4: suffered the ACL injury late in that season and he 728 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 4: wasn't the same quarterback after that. There's been other quarterbacks 729 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 4: that their careers basically get derailed. Yeah, and I'm not 730 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:33,839 Speaker 4: running type quarterbacks. 731 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: That not suggesting somebody's going to purposely go hit them. 732 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: But it's like when he's the runner in terrible sideline 733 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 1: and he's faking like he's going to throw the ball, 734 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 1: you gotta be careful. See look at that one Cincinnati. 735 00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 4: That Mahomes running against Cincinnati. And by the way, when 736 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 4: it comes to Mahomes, people haven't appreciated that they should 737 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 4: appreciated this. The work that his personal trainer does with 738 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:08,719 Speaker 4: him is just off the charts and which which has 739 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 4: made him, you know, the uber talent that he is 740 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:18,360 Speaker 4: is his ability to not only the runs that you see, 741 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,720 Speaker 4: but his ability to move around in the pocket, extend 742 00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 4: place I mean that is a year round thing, and 743 00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:27,440 Speaker 4: it's something that Dak has done in his career that 744 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:31,279 Speaker 4: has made him more athletic than even when he came 745 00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 4: into the league. 746 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 1: So is that Jordan No, that wasn't Jordan Love. They 747 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,799 Speaker 1: just showed another quarterback running there. 748 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:41,879 Speaker 4: Look like cann he Pickett picket. 749 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 1: So did you see what he was what he almost did. 750 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:49,359 Speaker 1: He almost intimated that he was going to slide, and 751 00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 1: then he didn't go down. I think they got to 752 00:47:54,480 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 1: watch that stuff because next time, maybe he is a slide. 753 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 1: Somebody's gonna nail them. I mean, think about it, when 754 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 1: you compete against somebody that's better than you, and you 755 00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 1: know they're better than you, but if you can ever 756 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 1: catch them, you give them a little extra, right, if 757 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:14,799 Speaker 1: he ever played any sport. 758 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 4: Well, And there's so much respect for Mahomes too, right, 759 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 4: and like when he runs along the sideline, you respect him, 760 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,319 Speaker 4: so you're not gonna cheap shot him. And then he 761 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:28,239 Speaker 4: pulls that off, right, Okay, then might as well just 762 00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 4: go after him there. 763 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:32,279 Speaker 1: And even that shot they showed there against Cincinnati when 764 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 1: he got hit out of bounce, well he got hit, 765 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:40,240 Speaker 1: but the ball came flying out. He came flying farther 766 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:42,160 Speaker 1: like he was Superman diving. 767 00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, have situ hits to get that smart football right there. 768 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:52,839 Speaker 4: That's right, all right? That does it for another edition 769 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,880 Speaker 4: of Mixed Shines. We welcome Everson back, and I promise 770 00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,360 Speaker 4: not to talk about the catch with Everson for the 771 00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 4: next two days. What about you? 772 00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 1: He might bring it up himself, bring it. 773 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:04,680 Speaker 4: Up himself, all right. I might lead him to it, 774 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 4: but I'm not going to bring it up myself. 775 00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:13,959 Speaker 1: When we do the Star Sports Tour reception, he gets 776 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 1: that question once, bet Bet, and he answers it. 777 00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:19,840 Speaker 4: He needs to handle it like Jerry handled his interview 778 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 4: with the fan yesterday and just asked the question himself. 779 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:25,920 Speaker 4: He said, I know you are going to ask me 780 00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:26,840 Speaker 4: about Derry Henry. 781 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,919 Speaker 1: Let's get right into it, right, all right? 782 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:32,359 Speaker 4: Does it for Mixed Shots.
