Welcome to Radioheads, everybody. The 6 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: public executions have been postponed for two weeks. All deportation 7 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 1: orders have been tabled, but only for two weeks. And 8 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: then there's the opportunity for everyone to be idiots again. 9 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: We Tyler was just observing during the moments leading up 10 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: to getting on the on the intrawebs here about how 11 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: the public talk about the head coach has changed in 12 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: a week, and I haven't paid much attention to it 13 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: because I've been I've been listening to um inadvertently, some 14 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: media people talking about both print and broadcast about how, yes, 15 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: that was great, that was nice, but that kind of 16 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: offense won't get them anywhere if they're I mean, if 17 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: people are picking things. I heard I heard the one that, oh, yeah, 18 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: Kellen was allowed to call this game. Yeah, totally different 19 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,199 Speaker 1: than all the other ones, right, yeah, because Kellen took 20 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 1: over and now that was why it was what it 21 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: was right, and so it is it is. As my 22 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: therapist would say, it's your work to figure out why 23 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: you can't let that go and let other people's business 24 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: be theirs. But I would just say that I think 25 00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: we saw the most complete game the team has played 26 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: last year. But I'll tell you when I really thought 27 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: it started, and we got Christie involved in this before 28 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 1: the game ever kicked off, because you could kind of 29 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: tell the atmosphere in the stadium was a little different. 30 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: It was charged, and the difference was like ninety minutes 31 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: before kickoff, and it was during warmups. And this is 32 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: the players go out super early, just in shorts and 33 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 1: T shirt and do some jogging and stretching. But when 34 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: they come out in uniform, they come out by position 35 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: groups or like the specialists will come out together. But 36 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: like ninety minutes before kickoff and the Eagles position groups 37 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: are coming a trickling out and they're getting booed, I mean, 38 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 1: rained down upon by fans at at and T Stadium. 39 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: Now it happens all the time to the Cowboys when 40 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: the Cowboys go to road games. But boy, I was 41 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: I just took note of it because I'm like, what's 42 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: going on? Who did they show on the overhead screen? 43 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: And no, it was the Eagles coming out, and so 44 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: that just kind of set the tone. I know that 45 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: is real. It is now. The defense set the tone 46 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: with the takeaways, but the offense also the crowd also 47 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: set the tone early. What does that do for players? Tyler? 48 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: The energy, I mean, it's real and you mentioned it 49 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: on the on the radio, the radiocast of the game 50 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: is as they came out fast, it was an attitude. 51 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: They were electric. It really does so the atmosphere, although 52 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: when you're on the sideline, you're not trying to notice 53 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: what's going on, but it is an energy that you 54 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 1: feel and it's and it's undeniable. And that's why you 55 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 1: always talk about like you'll hear people the players. You know, 56 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: hey fans, we need you here at this game. We 57 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: need you because the energy does play an effect to 58 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: when you go out on the field and the intensity 59 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: that you play with. We talked about the last three weeks, 60 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: the fact that they came out flat, slow starts and 61 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: it was real, and we talked about that now where 62 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: we talked about coach Garrett's role in that and going 63 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: in and making sure they're prepared. We office here at 64 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: the Star, so we get to watch Wednesday's practice and 65 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: by way, Tyler means the multi billion dollars realist RP 66 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: partner UH co worker Darren Woodson. So there's some football 67 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: guys up there. But even from behind the glass, not 68 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: even hearing you know, the stereo and all that, you 69 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: could tell it was crisp and it was fast, and 70 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: there was there was the intensity. Not that they don't 71 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: practice hard, because I'll still everyone asked me, like, oh, 72 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: coach Garrett's quarterback, and you know he's soft and he 73 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: doesn't work them hard. We practice harder than any NFL 74 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: team in the league, guaranteed, the amount of physicality, the 75 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: fact that we had pads in training camp for thirty 76 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: days straight, not a day without pads. I mean that 77 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: doesn't happen in the NFL. He has them working hard, 78 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: there's no question there. But there was something different. There 79 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 1: was there was attention to detail and starting fast and 80 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: I saw them repeat and we mentioned this last Monday, 81 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: and we talked about how, okay, they need to focus 82 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: on the first three plays of every period, make sure 83 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: that those plays are perfect, and what did we watch 84 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: They repeated there was a deep over route that they 85 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: ran three time times in a row on Wednesday, and 86 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: it was the first play because it wasn't right. Hit 87 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: the same receiver every time, but it wasn't executed right, 88 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: and they ran it three times in a row, over 89 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: and over, and sure enough they hit it in the game. Yeah, 90 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: I think I have a new definition for execution because 91 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: that was one of the key words last week. Right, 92 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: you get off to a fast start, we need to execute. 93 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 1: I think in the NFL, execution is not shooting yourself 94 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: in the foot, right, No, it really it is, because 95 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: the Eagles did that all last night with their turnovers 96 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: and with key penalties. But I'd like to point to 97 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: an offensive series in the third quarter where it actually 98 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: resulted in a field goal and not a touchdown. But 99 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys committed three penalties offensive penalties. Tyrant Smith, who 100 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: is playing on a bulky ankle, and it's not near 101 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: one hundred percent. When he's getting multiple penalties in the games, 102 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: that just lets you know that he is not physically 103 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: one hundred percent. He had a penalty. Connor Williams had 104 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: a penalty for legal procedure, a false start and then 105 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz had a holding penalty, but Michael Gallup had 106 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: a couple of huge plays. That was the series in 107 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: which Dak had the keeper and then went face to 108 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: face with Malcolm Jenkins. That was the first play of 109 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter actually, and then ultimately the big play 110 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: in that drive was the perfectly placed ball down the 111 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: right sideline to Amari Cooper. What a great play that was. 112 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: But you know, in the previous three weeks, I just 113 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: don't see him overcoming that, right. They weren't able to 114 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: overcome self inflicted wounds. And yet the Cowboys were able 115 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: to do that last night, whereas the Eagles were not. 116 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: I thought I thought the tenor was set from the 117 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: very first play. The first turnover was on the four 118 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the play by play, and they made 119 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: a first down before they fumbled on second down, so 120 00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: they had run four plays. But you could tell from 121 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: almost the first tackle that there was a lot of 122 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: activity around the ball. Yeah, and if you're watching on 123 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: the web, then you just saw Tavon Austin's touchdown for Orlando, 124 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: and then DeMarcus gets the sack strip fumble and sets 125 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: up the Zeke touchdown. Now before that he had the 126 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: run where it was it looked like he had scored, 127 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: and they did the replay and he was just short 128 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: and then took it in one yard and then Blake 129 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: Jarwin had the one yard TD catch, but Brad just 130 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: before the Malik Collins forcing the fumble on that in 131 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: the first series, when you're talking about the tone said early, 132 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: there was a very key play before that, and that 133 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: was Cheeto Woozya was flagged for pass interference and then 134 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: it got picked up and if not for that happening, 135 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: then the Eagles were down, you know, would have been 136 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: threatening at that point. So I thought that was really 137 00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: a key. There are certain plays or calls that it 138 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: happened in a game that are easily overlooked because they 139 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: were such a big highlight place, but that was one 140 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: of them, and it helps set up you know, who 141 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: knows what would have happened. But ultimately the Cowboys got 142 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: the takeaway following them the officials picking up that flag. 143 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: And to your point, though, right from the beginning we 144 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: got the turnover early big but you mentioned it on 145 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: the game. You and Babe talked about it. The swarming 146 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: right flying around six seven, eight people to the ball. 147 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: It is really really hard on a fifty two and 148 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: a half yard field to tackle someone by yourself. And 149 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: the last few weeks and you guys talked about this, 150 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: there's a lot of mistackles, but they were solo tackles 151 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: when you're when you're swarming, when you're coming together. But 152 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: again that comes back to energy, right, everyone multiple guys 153 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 1: getting off of blocks, being where they need to be, 154 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: executing where and doing it. And that was that was 155 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: the that was the difference, and that's when good things happened. 156 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: The ball comes out, um, you know, the center snapping 157 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: it early before Carson has a chance to catch it, 158 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,559 Speaker 1: hitting him off the chest. Those things are not accidents. 159 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: It wasn't just people are like, oh well, they just 160 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: played terrible Like they weren't. They weren't clear, but you 161 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 1: forced them to play bad because they're thinking about other things. 162 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: And I quoted this last night. It's one of my 163 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: favorite all time quotes. Jogi Berra said, fifty percent of 164 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 1: this game is ninety percent metal. And so I had 165 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: a defensive starter tell me last week, a guy that 166 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: normally you know, doesn't blow out of smoke and and 167 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: I said, this, something's going on. What's going on. It's 168 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: just not right. He said. You know, it may be 169 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: that guys are thinking too much because we're like afraid 170 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 1: to make a mistake. And last year, if you missed 171 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: a tackle, you knew there were five other guys right 172 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: behind you. And so I always think it's a tremendous 173 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: anomaly in sports. I was having this conversation with the 174 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer Jason Taylor, who was doing the national 175 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 1: radio broadcast before the game, and they're just a couple 176 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: of booths down from us. You know, we want our 177 00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: athletes to be smart and not think. Yeah, no, it's true. 178 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: It's being able to being able to process all of 179 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 1: the an immense amount of information right that these guys 180 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: have to go out and execute, to the point where 181 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 1: you get you're so smart, you're intelligent, but you don't 182 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: think about it because it is now become a habit 183 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: and you've ran through it all week, and it really 184 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: takes someone like to have the intelligence to think about, Okay, hey, 185 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: I've got to put in this work on the front 186 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: end so that when that ball is snapped, there's all 187 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: it is, all reactions. So the muscle memory of practicing 188 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: the right way with the intensity that you described earlier. Tyler, 189 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: that to me, if you've done that and then you're 190 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: really well prepared, which this team's usually pretty well prepared. 191 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I know people don't believe it, but they're 192 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 1: pretty well coached, and they last week for whatever reason, 193 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: might be three losses. Xavier Woods told us that on 194 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: the postgame show. So did anybody say anything? He said, 195 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: three losses said something, So okay, if that's what it took, yeah, fine, 196 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: because what happened, it's from the very beginning you could 197 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: tell that there was an edge and intensity to the 198 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 1: defense that with the possible exception of the game in 199 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: New Orleans I don't think, had been there for whatever 200 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: reason earlier in the year. And now their job is 201 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: to remember that that's how they have to play. But 202 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,359 Speaker 1: if they play that way, they can play with anybody. 203 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: And when they did that, then they kind of set 204 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: the tempo. And so then the offense when it came 205 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: on the field after getting that first fumble, well they 206 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: had to execute to keep up. That's right. You said 207 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: a couple of things first, when he said the three 208 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 1: losses said it one of the things that Jerry Talk 209 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: top down has done a great job of is He's 210 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: done a great job of building trust and guys, and 211 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: I think had it been approached a different way after 212 00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: three losses, like the public was calling for about playing faster, 213 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 1: you talked about not thinking so much. If Jerry had 214 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: gone into that meeting room or Coach Garrett had said 215 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: it in a team meeting room, So we're gonna whoever 216 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: doesn't play, We're gonna cut your a or you better 217 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: go play. You think those guys are going to think 218 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: on the field. But there's a level of trust in 219 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: this organization because I know Stephen, Will, Jerry, Coach Garrett. 220 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: They trust this team that they've put together. And yes, 221 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: we had three weeks that we put stuff on film 222 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 1: that we did, we did not love and the result 223 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: was not there. But here's what I saw. I saw 224 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: guys trusting the leaders, the organization and their teammates and 225 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: they all played that way and that and kudos to 226 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: Jerry and the front office to allow that trust to 227 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: be built, because that is what great teams do. Great 228 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: teams trust each other and they are not worried about, Okay, 229 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: who's behind me, who's trying to take my job. Look, 230 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: that innately is in this business. It is someone's always 231 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: trying to take your job. But the fact that Xavier 232 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: Wood says, okay, the three losses said more than any 233 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: coach ever could. That shows the maturity of a team 234 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: and what the goal of this team is. Yeah, I'd 235 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: like to go to the point of you were talking 236 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: about practice and how you know it's getting things right 237 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: and getting the technique and the mechanics correct so that you, 238 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: you know, you just fall back on it like muscle 239 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: memory on Sunday. Interesting conversation with Brett Moherd last night. 240 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: After the game. Of course, Brett kicks the sixty three 241 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: yard field goal to close the first half. It's a 242 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: team record, and he's the first kicker in NFL history 243 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 1: to have three career field goals of sixty plus yards. 244 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 1: But so he's one of the ones who's not being killed. 245 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: He's one of the ones he's not being killed. But 246 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 1: here's the thing. How's so he's great at long distance? 247 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,439 Speaker 1: Can we all say that he's actually more reliable from 248 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: longer distances than shorter distances, which kind of drives fans crazy. 249 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: But take a guess as to how many times in 250 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: the week he actually practices those long kicks. I'm gonna 251 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: say none. They spend a lot of time on their own, 252 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: especially when the team is inside. I'd say he probably 253 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: kicks twenty plus sixty yard field goals a week. Bratt 254 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: is correct, he kicks zero. So what he's kicking now 255 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: the longest that he around these teams for a long time. 256 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: You got the long snapper they kicked from the putter. 257 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: I think they go play pinnockle or the longest that 258 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: he actually kicks is in the pregame warmups on game day. 259 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: The last kick that they'll do when it's just the 260 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: specialist that are out on the field, they'll set the 261 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: ball down at the fifty or you know, the whole 262 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: the place will be at the fifties, So that would 263 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: be a fifty eight yard kick. But during the week 264 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: they don't kick long ones. And what they do is 265 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: Brett is he's working on the mechanics because the stroke 266 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: the same should be the same, the mechanics should be 267 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: the same, and so that's what they're doing. It's kind 268 00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: of like LP Lattis are in a way. Who's the 269 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: deep snapper. Whether it's a sixty three yarder or twenty yarder, 270 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: it's all the same. And I just thought that was 271 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: really really interesting and the other thing, and it goes 272 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: where you talked about like mental toughness and confidence and 273 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: things like that. Talking with Keith O'Quinn, who was the 274 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: special teams coordinator, got some stuff with him. You did 275 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: that for a long time after the game. Well, I'm 276 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: going to do a feature on Brett Maher and so 277 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: and KO. That's what we call Keith O'Quinn. Everybody calls 278 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: him Ko. By the way, if you ever any fitness advice, 279 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: he's your gay. Oh my gosh, he is more you 280 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: know ed hockey Lee is actually jealous of Ko. But 281 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: he was just talking about how Brett is just so 282 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: mentally tough that from the time that he came in 283 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: and he was challenging Dan Bailey. I know so many 284 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 1: fans were shocked last year when Dan Bailey got cut 285 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: at the end of camp and the team kept kept 286 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: Brett Maher. But he earned that job, you know, he 287 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: beat out Dan Bailey. But he says this, this kid, 288 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: he's just you know, he's got ice in his veins 289 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: and it's just the same mental approach and it's the 290 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: consistency that is what KO really appreciates. About. And so 291 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: I've a lot of the kickers that I know, most 292 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: of them are good golfers, right, and not just because 293 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: they have the time, but because the mentality. The mentality 294 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: is the same. Right. So whether whether you're hitting it 295 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: from you know, ninety yards out or you're hitting it 296 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: from one twenty or one eighty, that swing should be 297 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: the same, right, And it's the same. It's the same 298 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: concept with with kickers. Is that okay, look and that 299 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: swing his leg swing looks smooth, looked easy. He didn't 300 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: muscle it. And that's the sign of a good kicker, 301 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: because okay, let the mechanics do the work. And that's 302 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: what's gonna be consistent. Because whether you're kicking it from thirty, 303 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: the balls still going the same distance. Right, there's just 304 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: a net that stops it behind it, but it's the 305 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: same thing. And that's and that's a mature kicker that 306 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: can Okay, I'm not going to think about it being 307 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: sixty yards, whether it's thirty or whether it's sixty three. 308 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: I'm going to do the same. We were just watching, 309 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 1: if you're watching on Dallas Cowboys dot com. We saw 310 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 1: the celebration after he made the kick and I said 311 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 1: on the radio, he will now be examined for a 312 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: concussion for all of his teammates pounding out on the 313 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 1: helm out well concussion or drug test one of the two. Yeah, 314 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: that they could also happen. You know. The other part 315 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: of that, of that whole thing that interested me was 316 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: that now, if you play outdoors, obviously have conditions to 317 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: deal with. But I said, did you at some point 318 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: did did you guys say okay, I'm good from here, 319 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 1: or did Jason say how far have you got me? 320 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: He said, no, we do that during the week. That 321 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: never came up on the sideline. He said, during the week, 322 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,479 Speaker 1: we know what the range will be. Now I know 323 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: that that's not the case on an outdoor field. When 324 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: the wind when they go to the meadow lands in 325 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: two weeks on a Monday night, it'll depend on how 326 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 1: cold it is because the ball's heavier, and it'll depend 327 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: on how the wind is blowing, especially there, especially there. 328 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: But for something like this, or if the conditions are calm, 329 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: he said, no, we do that during the week. That 330 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: there was never He was just kind of let's go. Yeah. Actually, 331 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: Kao said that that Brett was kind of like time 332 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:17,360 Speaker 1: was like give me a chance on this one. Give 333 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: me a chance. And he pointed back to when I 334 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 1: mentioned how he beat out Dan Bailey at the end 335 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: of the twenty eight twenty eighteen preseason. It was the 336 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: very last. It was the fourth game of that preseason, 337 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 1: and you may remember that Malher came on and he 338 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: had a chance to kick. I think it was like 339 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: a fifty six yard or a fifty two yarder. It 340 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: was fifty five plus, I remember, And you know he 341 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: had kind of had the job maybe already in hand, 342 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 1: but nobody knew it. But nobody nobody knew it. But 343 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: if he misses it, he really hurts his chances. But 344 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: Ko said that he's like, Okay, give me a chance 345 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,360 Speaker 1: on this one. Give me a chance on this one. 346 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: Went out nailed it solidified his job. All Right, we're 347 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: gonna take a break.

Back to radioheads, Welcome back everybody, 388 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,400 Speaker 1: Cowboys or four and three which is better than three 389 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: and four? Um, that sounded obvious, but it's it's not quite. Bradsham, 390 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: Christie Scales, Tyler Klutz after the Cowboys blew out the 391 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles last night, and so let's um, let's discuss 392 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 1: the offense a little bit, mister Klutz please, because it 393 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:51,400 Speaker 1: seemed efficient. Um, people were dazzled by the uh kind 394 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:56,199 Speaker 1: of triple option call to Tavon Austin for the first touchdown? 395 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: And where was that creativity the last three way? So 396 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:04,959 Speaker 1: would you address how situations present themselves in games? And 397 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: I read one thing from a respected columnist, a guy 398 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 1: who's a friend of mine, who I think is really 399 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: good at what he does, this morning, talking about that 400 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: the bootleg touchdown past to Blake Jarwin last night was 401 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: proof that they should have done that on fourth down 402 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: against the Jets, and it may not have even been 403 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: the same. Look, it's to me, you can't compare one 404 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 1: situation to another, but please and like, yeah, you can't. 405 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 1: Because here's the thing is, as you're doing you're scouting. Now. Look, 406 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 1: you've got one week to prepare, but the scouts and 407 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 1: the quality control coaches they're looking two, three, four weeks out, 408 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 1: so they're already breaking down looking at tendencies of the 409 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: either opponent's defense or offense what they look like. So 410 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: when you create a game plan, you're looking at those 411 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: opponents what they show where the weaknesses are. So, for example, 412 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: this or last week the Jets, there wasn't anything that 413 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 1: showed them in the Jets defense that that naked boot 414 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: would have worked right where the tight end slides down, 415 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: acts like he's down blocking, spins out, comes back out 416 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: in the flat. Like if if that opportunity doesn't present 417 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: itself on film, you're not going to just drop a 418 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 1: play to drop a play, right, You create your plays 419 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: within your system that fit against that defense and what's 420 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: going to be most effective. So to say that they 421 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 1: should have ran that against the Jets, that's really hard 422 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: because the Jets may have shown a really good job 423 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: of spying that backside tied end and making sure that Okay, 424 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,439 Speaker 1: hey he's not going to slip out. Maybe someone's ran 425 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: it against them in the past, and so it was like, okay, 426 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: we're not They do a good job covering that, so 427 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 1: we're not gonna we're not gonna use it. Um baby. 428 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: Laffenberg made what I thought was a really good point 429 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 1: last night that the the sequence at the end of 430 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: the second quarter that presented Maher with the opportunity, and 431 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,159 Speaker 1: Christie made this point during the break presented him the 432 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: opportunity to kick the sixty three yarder. First of all, 433 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,199 Speaker 1: you give an assist to Quinn for the sack that 434 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:08,440 Speaker 1: forces the Eagles to punt. No, nobody remembers that. Yeah, 435 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 1: but but they've got to punt the ball because Quinn 436 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: sacks the quarterback. Now from twenty two seconds to nine seconds, 437 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 1: Witton Witton, Witton out of bounds, and they move the 438 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: ball into what turns out to be faithful Yeah, into 439 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: field goal range. So the reason I'm bringing all this 440 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 1: up is, Uh, it was clearly really really good use 441 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 1: of the clock. Yeah, it was. I don't think it's 442 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 1: and I don't think that it is a typical of 443 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 1: the way Jason Garrett calls a game. We've seen him, Christy, 444 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 1: We've seen him practice that stuff in training camp. They 445 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: call it situational football time after time Saturday. So does 446 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:51,919 Speaker 1: he get it, yes, there's So does he get a 447 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 1: bad rap for uh clock management coach Kerrett? Yeah? Uh, 448 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:02,239 Speaker 1: internally or just ex Yeah, the perception is that he 449 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: is a poor clock manager, And I think the perception's wrong. Yeah, 450 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: I agree. I think the execution why we have not 451 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,199 Speaker 1: been successful in the past last three weeks. We've had 452 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: two minute drives multiple times at the either end of 453 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,679 Speaker 1: the half or the end of the game, and we 454 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: just have not executed those drives the way that we 455 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 1: need to. Whether it was a drop pass, bad throw 456 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: or a sack which was which has ended. You know 457 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 1: a lot of our drives in these two minutes, but 458 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: this last one it was there, and Dad did a 459 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 1: great job of taking what was given to him. And 460 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: so they gave wit space and they let him and 461 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 1: then just get it to him, get out of bounds, 462 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 1: just creep it down, because really, I mean, what an 463 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: average play in the NFL is They say seven seconds, 464 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: but in two minute that needs to be down below five. 465 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 1: It needs to be really like four or three or 466 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 1: four seconds. And those out those quick out routes, that's 467 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: what that is. So they went from twenty two to nine. Yeah, yeah, 468 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 1: but you say, taking what they give him. And this 469 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 1: is the growth of quarterbacks. Is that last one he 470 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: didn't try to four because I think it was Mills 471 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: who had a witten their plan on the sideline. Everybody 472 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: else was dropped back deep, and in this case they 473 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: decided to go with a hail Mary or long pass 474 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,199 Speaker 1: instead of a quick out and Dak intentionally sailed it 475 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 1: way over the Cowboys bench, So that shows the maturity 476 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: there as well, and recognizing it's recognizing a situation and 477 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 1: incomplete passing that two minute drill as long as obviously 478 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,919 Speaker 1: it's not fourth down is a win. It is a 479 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 1: good thing because that clock is just as or more 480 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: important than the yards. Absolutely, But to your point, the 481 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: clock management, Coach Garrett, we work that. The Cowboys I say, 482 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 1: we like, I'm still there, but that clock management we 483 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,400 Speaker 1: worked at all the time. So to say that we're 484 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 1: unprepared in that two minute and we don't have the 485 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 1: right approach to it, that's completely false because they worked 486 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,640 Speaker 1: out all the time and every scenario. Every single Saturday, 487 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: we practice a scenario that happened the week before somewhere 488 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: in the NFL. So they're watching all these games in 489 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: any situation where they either a team did something really 490 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 1: well or made a mistake and we'll call it, we'll 491 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,719 Speaker 1: stop it. Hey, this game, this is a situation that happened. 492 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: We are not going to We're going to learn from 493 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: their mistake and we're going to replicate this and we're 494 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,159 Speaker 1: going to go execute it the way that it should be. 495 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 1: Should be executed. So he does a great job. I 496 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 1: mean as far as education on the game, Like he 497 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,479 Speaker 1: educated me so much, and having already played football for 498 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: twenty five years by the time I got to the Cowboys, 499 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 1: I mean, the thing and defense and the things that 500 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,239 Speaker 1: I learned about the game that I didn't even know 501 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 1: were actual things in American football in the NFL, like 502 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 1: I learned from him. And he runs through so many 503 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 1: detailed scenarios, so I think exactly right. Give an example 504 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 1: like the end of the half kick that just happened 505 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: actually this last week in London, Like I'd never seen 506 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: that before, the fact that you could you could fair 507 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,479 Speaker 1: catch up punt and then kick a field goal from 508 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 1: the fifty yard line with a holder on. Yeah, yeah, 509 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,639 Speaker 1: And I never knew that the free kick. And this 510 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: was a guy I'd played my entire life, literally since 511 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: I was four, and this was a scenario that we 512 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,719 Speaker 1: walked through and not because it happened, it was like, hey, 513 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: we need to make sure we address this, and this 514 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 1: is this is something that's at least on your radar, 515 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: so you're not like like I would have been in 516 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: the middle of a game, not that I'd be on 517 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: the field, but you were you might have been. Let's 518 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 1: before we talk about some things on defense, let's address 519 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: a larger global point, which is I am constantly perplexed 520 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: by the what appears to me to be the feeling 521 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: among football fans. And I think it's not limited to 522 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: the Cowboys or to the NFL that the standard is 523 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: perfection all the time, all the time. I mean, do 524 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: you have someone in your office upstairs examining every phone 525 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: call and deal that you make and then explaining publicly 526 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: why you should not have made that deal or how 527 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 1: you should have done even though the closest they've ever 528 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 1: gotten to real estate is driving by a sign in 529 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 1: somebody's yard. Yeah. I actually get that all the time. 530 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: I get calls all the time that they were not 531 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: happy with how I executed that transaction. Yeah. Thinking on that, 532 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 1: I think that it's interesting though, with the fans and 533 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: the reaction. They think it's such a dumpster fire with 534 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, but look around at the other teams in 535 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: the their fan bases have the same thing, unless you're 536 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: New England. But oh my gosh, the greatest joy besides 537 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: the big win last night is knowing the reaction of 538 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: the Philly fans today because they are Apple. I looked 539 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: on a little bit of the Philadelphia Inquirer this morning. 540 00:29:56,280 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 1: I ran out of time, but the one charge, apparently 541 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson was accused in his pros conference of his 542 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: team being unprepared. See what what again? They were? They 543 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: were just outplayed. They really, they really any any given Sunday, 544 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,719 Speaker 1: they were just outplayed. I do believe we're the better team, 545 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 1: no doubt in my mind. You know, they were a 546 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: little banged up on the in the secondary and on 547 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 1: the front and obviously losing some key players. That doesn't help, 548 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: but we are by far the better team. So to 549 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: say that they were unprepared, I people just say stuff, 550 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: There's got to be excuses. There's gotta be a reason 551 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 1: for everything. And your point, like perfection is the only 552 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 1: standard that we that we accept. And it's so funny, 553 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: like why is football that way? Is it because it's 554 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: a shorter season and we've got all week to talk 555 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: about it and build it up. And where as baseball, 556 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: like if you're a three, if you're a three hundred 557 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: three fifty hitter, I mean you're an All star and 558 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: you failed sixty five percent of the time, that's yes, 559 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: that's exactly right. You picked the wrong sport tyler. You 560 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: should have done baseball apparently goodness, and my body would 561 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: feel better too, you'd still be playing. Yeah, we'll see. 562 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 1: But yeah, And to your point, though, I really do 563 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: believe that it's it's unfortunate because the mindset in the 564 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 1: locker room is to pursue perfection, right, and that's that 565 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: is the standard, and that's why and I'm going to 566 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 1: kind of go off on a tangent here, it's unfortunate 567 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: because you look at these guys and I'm included in this, 568 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: but as guys go to what's next, it's hard because 569 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: that's not real life. Real life is not perfection. Real 570 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: life is failing over and over and over and learning 571 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 1: and yes, okay, we're going to make those incremental growth 572 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: moments right and we're just going to grow and grow 573 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,479 Speaker 1: and grow where guys are just baffled and it's like 574 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 1: guys lose back to back times in real life and 575 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: it's like I don't even know what to do. And 576 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 1: that's why we see some guys struggle in that next 577 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: life because this unrealistic expectation of perfection is not is 578 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: not reality. But on Sundays in the NFL, it is 579 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: well so key also last night, I mean not just 580 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: getting the division win and being in sole possession of 581 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 1: first place in the East, but when a buy is 582 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 1: coming up and imagine but when But what's a lot 583 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: compare and contrast? Yeah, going into buy weeks off a 584 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 1: big wins or off of very disappointing losses. Yeah. So 585 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: the biggest key is is practice Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, this week. Right. Generally, 586 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: Tuesday's a lighter day, they'll be in shorts and helmets 587 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: and it'll be a kind of a light day. Wednesday's 588 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: a work day. It's like, okay, hey, we're going to 589 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: make sure we're getting better at something. And then Thursdays 590 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: just another light day. Send you off, have a long weekend. 591 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: It's great, but you come off of a loss, those 592 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: practices look very different, and it's a lot. It's it's 593 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 1: generally special team coaches get a lot more time this week, right, 594 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 1: So the guys that normally skip the special teams period 595 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 1: now are in the special teams period, and instead of 596 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: it being a twenty minute period, they now have forty 597 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 1: five minutes to do what they want. And those special 598 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: team coaches have a lot of time to come up 599 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 1: with some really crazy drills. And so the week coming 600 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: off of a win, it's the feeling is good. Hey, 601 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: let's get better, let's refine, and then let's enjoy this week. 602 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: Let's unplug, recharge, and then we're back. But after a loss, gosh, 603 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 1: they just wear you out because they wear you out 604 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: because well, you're gonna get rest this weekend. So we're 605 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: gonna they wear you out because somebody wore them. It 606 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 1: flows downhill in football, just like everywhere else. So there, 607 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna pay one more break. Then we're going to 608 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 1: talk about the defense and looking ahead.

Back to Radioheads, Welcome back with Tyler 646 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,919 Speaker 1: Kletz and Christy Scalzheim, Brad Shamlee. Cowboys with a big 647 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 1: win over the Philadelphia Eagles last night. I head into 648 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 1: their bye and I'm not really totally comfortable talking football 649 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 1: unless I asked CHRISTI for an injury report, and there 650 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: were three of them that were pretty significant on the 651 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: defensive side. Layton vandersh Is said after the game that 652 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 1: you know, he felt like he said he wanted to 653 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 1: go back in now. He did come back out to 654 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 1: the sideline in street clothes and watch most of the 655 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: second half among his teammates on the sideline. But that 656 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 1: injury to his neck happened at about the four and 657 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: a half minute mark in the second quarter, So I 658 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: think the bye week will serve him particularly well. Yeah, 659 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 1: they yes, okay. And I had a trainer say something 660 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 1: that I can't It was hard to pronounce in a 661 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: lot of syllables, but basically, how many stingers did you 662 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:51,800 Speaker 1: have in your playing days? Too many? Too many? And honest, 663 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: sobscribe a stinger. Imagine boiling a pot of water, a big, one, 664 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: big blot cauldron of water, and then pouring it over 665 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 1: half of your body. So my rookie year, um, I 666 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:12,240 Speaker 1: struggled literally the last six games, um, and so every 667 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 1: time I would hit someone, I would get one. And 668 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: it was to the point where, yeah, I mean it was. 669 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 1: It was absolutely awful. And it's something that only rest 670 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 1: can heal. It's because it's a nerve, a nerve, right, 671 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: So it's pinching a nerve and so there's some some 672 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: sort of inflammation or something going on or in your 673 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,760 Speaker 1: spinal cord, and every time you connect and it runs 674 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 1: down your neck through your shoulder, and I was feeling 675 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 1: them all the way down into my leg. But again, 676 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 1: boiling water over the top of you and so and 677 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: what we do and fans and we all say, well, 678 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: he's got a stinger. He'll know, he'll be back in 679 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 1: a while. Yeah, and that's the thing they usually do, 680 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 1: come back. But yeah, he went into the blue medical tent. 681 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 1: And actually, I think it's it's more than just like 682 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,360 Speaker 1: I say, a regular stinger. And I've done mean to 683 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: diminish anything like that. But generally if it's a normal stinger, 684 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 1: they'll come over and they don't even really go in 685 00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 1: the blue tent, Doctor Cooper. What they'll do, Brad, hold 686 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,320 Speaker 1: your hands up like fists like this, you're a player. 687 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 1: I'm doctor Cooper. I press on your fists here, check 688 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: like that to see if you have strength in your arms. 689 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:25,280 Speaker 1: So already, Brad, Brad's gonna meet too on me, so 690 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: we're going. It was different in that they took Layton 691 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: into the blue tent and then from there, um he 692 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: just went straight back to the locker room. So it's 693 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 1: it's more, it's more serious than a regular stinger. I 694 00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 1: think that the one injury Robert Quinn, it ended up 695 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 1: with a rib injury. It happened very late in the 696 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,879 Speaker 1: second half. Yeah, and he's the second quarter, the second quarter, 697 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:50,879 Speaker 1: excuse me, happened late in the second quarter. He did 698 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 1: not come out for the second half at all. And 699 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 1: so rib injuries and I don't know if you've ever 700 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: had one, Tyler, but our broadcast partner, Babe Laffamracles say 701 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: he had a rib card lage injury and said spent 702 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,799 Speaker 1: nights in the hospital. Says it's the worst injury he 703 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 1: ever had. Into free paint breath that you take, it 704 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: feels like you're getting stabbed. So I, you know, I'm 705 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: hopeful because Robert Quinn has made such a huge difference 706 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: and now he's supposed to be on the radio show 707 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 1: tonight that he was scheduled for and then as long 708 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:24,840 Speaker 1: as he's healthy and healthy enough to get through the 709 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: radio show. Now, Jeff, Jeff, there was not a concussion 710 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 1: that was he came over and I think it might 711 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: have been like a torso chest rib kind of thing. 712 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: He just they weren't like checking for stingers or anything. 713 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 1: It was just like and honestly, he was throwing his 714 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: body around. Actually what happened was on this one, he's 715 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 1: covering his man, he's crossing the field, and his eyes 716 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 1: are back on the quarterback and he doesn't see the 717 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: receiver for the Eagles running straight into him. It was 718 00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: not a pick. It was just too goody. Two bodies 719 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 1: colliding at full speed, and it basically laid Jeff out. 720 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: Now I think it were it was a situation where 721 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 1: if they really really really needed him at that point, 722 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,480 Speaker 1: it was thirty seven to ten, or at least it 723 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,799 Speaker 1: was thirty to ten at that point. No, I'm sorry, 724 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,879 Speaker 1: they had already scored. It was thirty seven to ten. 725 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 1: So this was with less than nine minutes left in 726 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. Maybe he would have gone back in, 727 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 1: but you know, they were kind of pulling some players 728 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 1: at the end. So I want to mention a guy 729 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 1: who never gets mentioned, but I thought he did a 730 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: tremendous job last night. Carrie Hider as a guy from 731 00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:46,279 Speaker 1: Texas Tech's from Austin, went to LBJ High School and 732 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,800 Speaker 1: he's been with the Lions, he's been with the Jets, 733 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 1: he's been with a few teams. They signed him in 734 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: the offseason. I always kind of think of it it 735 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:58,319 Speaker 1: was like a Patriots like signing because nobody noticed. But 736 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: he's a smart veteran who can play and tackle, and 737 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: he's been versatile, but he's just nothing but hustle. I 738 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:08,919 Speaker 1: thought he had a really strong preseason and Christy last night, 739 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,799 Speaker 1: I looked up to start the third quarter and that's 740 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 1: fifty one instead of fifty eight. That's when we knew 741 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: that Quinn wasn't coming back. And I thought that Hyder 742 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 1: was a really important part of what they did in 743 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 1: the second half. It really was now he made the 744 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 1: highlight package because of the fumble recovery. That was the 745 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 1: snap that WinCE mishandled there in the second half. But 746 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 1: it was interesting, Brad, because Hyder actually got quite a 747 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 1: few snaps in the first half, but it was the inside. 748 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 1: You talk about him being a versatile player, he was 749 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 1: actually part of the rotation. He actually came in for 750 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:47,280 Speaker 1: Antoine Woods next to Malik Collins, so playing defensive tackle, 751 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: and then in the second half it was exclusively at 752 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 1: end because Quinn was down. And so he's been a 753 00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 1: great find. I think technically he only had one quarterback hurry, 754 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 1: two tackles the fumble recovery, but for defensive linemen, the 755 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 1: stats do not reveal our show what the true contribution was. 756 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 1: I thought he I agree with you Brad he was 757 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 1: the one of the unsung heroes. But that interior line, right, 758 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 1: that's what we talked about. We talked about the last 759 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 1: couple of weeks that we really haven't seen a strong presence. 760 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: You know. Tyrone tried to battle through the hit. He 761 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:28,879 Speaker 1: just wasn't himself there. But Malik had an outstanding game 762 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: as well. He did he had the forced fumble on 763 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 1: the first series. He was and he was one of 764 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 1: the ones who was setting a tempo from the guests go. 765 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,239 Speaker 1: And we saw the MALIEK Collins that we saw in 766 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,920 Speaker 1: training camp, and we've seen flashes. But and Antoine Woods 767 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,600 Speaker 1: was a presence and they need that. Yes, they absolutely 768 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 1: have to have that. So and guys like Hyder I've 769 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:53,240 Speaker 1: I've always gravitated to those guys who don't Tyler kluts, 770 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 1: guys who make big contributions without a lot of headlines, 771 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 1: no fanfare, no ego, happy to have a job, give 772 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 1: me sixteen things to do. Yeah, that's what you did, 773 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:07,080 Speaker 1: and I think that's what carry I didn't have a 774 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 1: fan base. I did not mention the radio crew, but 775 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: guys like Ola Wally, he didn't have a lot of snaps. 776 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: Last night, a guy like that. Didn't have a lot 777 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:19,720 Speaker 1: of snaps last night, but sure had some key blows. 778 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 1: A big block. I love seeing that, huh. And what 779 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,879 Speaker 1: did you think we saw a lot more of where 780 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 1: Pollard and Zeke Elliott we're in the back to back combination. 781 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,880 Speaker 1: I do really really like that because now, as as 782 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 1: a defense, right, just think about the mentality. Okay, we 783 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 1: got two guys that are capable of making big plays 784 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 1: in the backfield, whether you line them up in the 785 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 1: backfield or not, how do you how do you approach that? Okay, 786 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 1: because generally either you've got a safety or a middle 787 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,880 Speaker 1: line or outside backer. Usually that's okay, hey I'm on 788 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: I'm on the running back. Now it's like okay, so 789 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: now I've got maybe a less athletic linebacker that's got 790 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 1: to cover that. It's just a it's just a matchup 791 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: nightmare for defenses when you do that, whether you motion 792 00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: them out and run them, you know, run a little 793 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,560 Speaker 1: stick rout or just a whatever it is. But now 794 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:07,920 Speaker 1: you've got to accomplish it. But then also too, it's 795 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 1: a really it's a telltale sign of what the defense 796 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: is going to do from a coverage. So you really 797 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,040 Speaker 1: expose what the defense is going to do early on 798 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:18,840 Speaker 1: based off that personnel. All right, m bye week coming up. Everybody, 799 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,719 Speaker 1: take a deep breath. Put the hanging ropes back in 800 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:27,080 Speaker 1: the closet for a minute, at least for two weeks. 801 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 1: Save them for your head, save them for your favorite 802 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 1: college coach if that's what you need. And then just 803 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:39,120 Speaker 1: remember you could be a Dolphins fan or Bengals. Hey, 804 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,760 Speaker 1: thank you, Kyle, you got it.
