I was worried about. No, 27 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: people don't want to hear this. I was worried about that. 28 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: I was. I'm sorry, I was worried. But I appreciate 29 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: everybody that that that tweeted over to me and said, hey, 30 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: I like the like the old the old days talk. 31 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: So I'm glad we did that back in the day. Well, 32 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 1: so what was the highlight of back in the day talk? Well, 33 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: we just went and talked about me in like nineteen 34 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: seventy four leaving a Cowboy game when they when Clint Long, 35 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: Well that was Cowboys. Yeah, Mickey wrote a book a 36 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 1: book about it. Great rivalry. So yeah, we we kind 37 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: of the first segment we went into Rob was kind 38 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: of like looking as like, what are you guys talking 39 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: about it? It was good. Yeah, Okay, I'll throw my 40 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: two cents worth on that because I came in here 41 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: wondering about this baseball controversy there they're fan interference or whatever, 42 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: because I did not watch the baseball game. I'm sorry. 43 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: It's football season and so I'm I'm focused on the 44 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: Cowboys Redskins whatever. But it got me to think it. 45 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: Remember one of the Cowboys Redskins game in the early 46 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: nineties in Washington, a controversy in the end zone on 47 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 1: a fumble or something with Aikman. Do you remember that, Mickey. 48 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: It was as mad as I've seen Jimmy. Oh. It 49 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: was because it was the game that they could have 50 00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: clinched either the division title it was a December game, 51 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: or they could have clinched a playoff Berth and Aikman 52 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: fumbled the ball and emt and Emmett went to try 53 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 1: to recover it, and he bobbled it around, and they 54 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: recovered it and scored a touchdown and beat them, and 55 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: they had to go to the next week. So I 56 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: think it was ninety two because they had an opportunity 57 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: to clinch the division title, Okay, and that happened and 58 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: turned the game around, and they had to wait till 59 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: the next week to could clinch the title, And that 60 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: was the one when they flew home and there was 61 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: a little too much yaking on the plane, and he 62 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 1: went back there and started yelling and screaming and and 63 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: and from and as the story goes that he yelled 64 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: at the flight attendants to quit serving food they don't 65 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: deserve to eat. There's something to that. So he went 66 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: back to the back of the plane yelled at the 67 00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: players for having too good a time. After Wow, it 68 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: just occurred to me. So I apologized that in high 69 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: school that was a plan senior high bus, but not 70 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,119 Speaker 1: to the service. So that would if it was ninety two. 71 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: It was December thirteenth of ninety two. I'm twenty to 72 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: seventeen loss to the Redskins. And it's one of those 73 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: deals where we in the media, we go down to 74 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: the field with five eight minutes left in the game whatever, 75 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 1: and so we don't have access to replay, you know, 76 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 1: down anymore. Yeah, yeah, And so I was down on 77 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: the field at RFK and so I don't I don't 78 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: think I ever saw the TV copy of what happened 79 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: on that play. But it was a play, and that's 80 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 1: why it's foggy and Charles and hit somebody. But here's 81 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 1: here's what I remember more than anything is Jimmy in 82 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: the locker room after that game, and the media around 83 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: Jimmy and everyone was afraid to ask Jimmy a question. 84 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: So I mean, Jimmy, he's pursing his lips, okay, you know, 85 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 1: smacking smack, and and uh he must he may have 86 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 1: said something at the beginning, but it wasn't. It was 87 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: very short whatever, and then there's this long silence. I 88 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: maybe maybe someone if asked a question that was a 89 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: it was a very quick answer, kurt answer, and then 90 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: long silence. And then finally I'm like, if I'm not mistaken, 91 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 1: is Washington was the press area? I mean for that interview, 92 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 1: it was like a little platform and everybody was crowded around. 93 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: It was everyone was where you're like a foot away 94 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: from the guy. And there was probably only like that 95 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: that right, there must have been and even nineteen ninety two, 96 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: we're talking twenty six years ago, there was probably only 97 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: ten or twelve reporters even even around them. What my 98 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: memory I may be wrong, but hell, there was that 99 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: many from the morning news there, but but there was nobody. 100 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: There was nobody was asking a question and so finally 101 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: I'm like, are you upset about the call in the 102 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: end zone? Yeah? And he went off well and he said, 103 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 1: I'm upset about a lot of things, okay, and that 104 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: was it. So were you on the charter flight? I was. 105 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 1: I know, I stayed stay. It was a late afternoon game, right, 106 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,799 Speaker 1: and so we were editing up until our live shot 107 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: at ten o'clock at the what I was working at 108 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: the NBC affiliate did And so I was not on 109 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: the charter going back, but I heard the story and 110 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: I wasn't And I'm not at all surprised how mad 111 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: Jimmy was because I've never well, the only other time 112 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: was a Giants game. Well, the last one of the 113 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 1: the second to last one of the nineteen eighty nine Well, buddy, yeah, no, no, 114 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: the Giants, no, because that was the game. They they 115 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: they had like three, uh possessions inside the ten yard line, 116 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,559 Speaker 1: or they were a couple of possessions, like firsting goal 117 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: at the two, and they couldn't get in and it 118 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: was a shutout. It was like twelve to nothing or 119 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: fifteen to nothing. Look look it up. And it was 120 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: bitterly cold, and they couldn't get the ball into the 121 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: end zone. So the Giants game at the end of 122 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: the season, and it was a shutout, right, yes, fifteen 123 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: nothing was in the final game of the seat in 124 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: the frozen tundra. Yeah. Anyway, Jimmy started uh yelling and screaming, 125 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: and he called all the assistant coaches off the bus 126 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: and and and chewed him out right and in the 127 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: tarmac or at the stadium stadium nice like they were 128 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: on the bus ready to go, and he got him 129 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: out and then he in the in the postgame press conference, 130 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: he said, we just aren't strong enough. We gotta be stronger, 131 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: and he blamed Bob Ward, Tom Landry's strength and conditioning 132 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: God bless him. He's ninety years old now and he 133 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: was ahead of his time. When we were walking off, 134 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: Dennis Dennis Thurman was talking about how what a good 135 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: strength and conditioning coach Bob Ward was. Well, Jimmy blamed it, 136 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: and I swear to God. As soon as the season 137 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: went was over, they relieved, yeah, but playing that they 138 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: weren't strong enough to get in the end zone. And 139 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: he had Brodrick Sergeant and Darryl Johnson playing tailback. Alight, Yeah, alright, 140 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: that okay, all due respect to that one. The other one, though, 141 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: against the Giants at New York was nineteen ninety one 142 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: to twenty two to nine loss, and the referees were, oh, yes, yes, 143 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 1: we're awful that game. And that was the famous line 144 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: from Jimmy. And I don't remember the exact specifics of 145 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 1: what he was venting about. There was, that's what that 146 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: were really sketchy. We still have to change. The worst 147 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 1: I've ever seen ever, ever, ever since my daddy said 148 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: this is what you call a football, or something about 149 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: blowing up the football or something. It was yeah, he 150 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: because he and basically he was he was brilliant, because 151 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: they played poorly, and we were in that little room 152 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: at Giants Stadium and he did that and then he 153 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: stomped off. So now he didn't have to ask answer 154 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: any questions about how poorly they played, right, he just 155 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 1: put it on. I want to say that was it 156 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: was other referees, and it was the worst I've ever 157 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 1: seen ever, my dad, since my daddy said this is 158 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: what you call a football, oh, Jimmy, or the time 159 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 1: he threw the fit at Valley Ranch on the Tuesday 160 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 1: press conference and he was already mad and and it 161 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: was after a loss, and he was trying to send 162 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: a message to the team, like you better beware because 163 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: Jimmy's mad. He got up there, he said what he 164 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: had to say, he answered one question, he didn't like it, 165 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: and he stomped off. Then I found afterwards that he 166 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: had already played. Okay, I don't know if this is 167 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: the same one is what I was involved in? Okay, 168 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: you remember something funny ed, something humorous. Okay, that was 169 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: after a Monday That was a Monday press conference after 170 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: a loss, where I guess he was. Jimmy got up 171 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: to leave. We were in the little library at Valley Ranch. 172 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: That was where they would have the Monday day after 173 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 1: press conference, and Jimmy got up to leave it I 174 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: guess ed Warder was laughing or something I don't know, 175 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: and he's smiling, yeah, smiling, had a look on his face, 176 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: and Jimmy's like, something funny yed, something humorous as he 177 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 1: storms out. I had a similar incident. It might have 178 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: been that same press conference you're talking about. John Radigan 179 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: was sitting next to me and it was one of 180 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: those tense press conferences and we we were just kind 181 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: of smiling at each other and Jimmy sees me and 182 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 1: he says, you got a question? Bill? I was like, oh, yeah, 183 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: how are these press conferences not carried live? That started 184 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: with parcels? But this sounds like goal. Oh it was, 185 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: it was, it was. It was the best I was not. 186 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: I'm good whatever. So so anyway, uh, afterwards to your point, afterwards, 187 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: I see Jimmy out in the parking lot, because that 188 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 1: was back when the media got served lunch after after 189 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 1: the press conference. Pays park, so we're in the players park. 190 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: We park in the players parking lot. So Jimmy goes 191 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: out for his noontime jog after the press conference, and 192 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: he's in the greatest mood ever, all of a sudden, 193 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: and he yells at He yells at me, Hey, you 194 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: got a question. Bill. All he was doing was in 195 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: front of the cameras. He wanted to get a message 196 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: across to his team that Okay, this is a no 197 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: nonsense week. Okay, what's the message this week? Then everything 198 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: was premeditated, I guarantee you. And usually a lot of 199 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 1: times his message to the team was coming off a win, yeah, 200 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: forty to seven win over Jackson. I was saying, he 201 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: would flip it around and make sure that they weren't 202 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: eating the cheese, you know, and ourselves. Yeah, and after 203 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: a win, he was harder on the team than after 204 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: a loss. Right, And so to your point, the way 205 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: you do it this week is you've flipping around maybe 206 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: and yeah, although maybe your team needs that confidence, that 207 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: swagger they got from Connor McGregor on Sunday. Yeah, that helps. 208 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: I think the message this week is and it's it's 209 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: the same every week, but focus, lock in. They've got 210 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: to be poised and focused on the road. They haven't 211 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: done that so far, particularly offensively. And Zeke said it yesterday. 212 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: Our communication has been quote terrible on the road, you know. 213 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 1: And that's not just up front, you know when people think, oh, 214 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: offensive line, but it's everybody so and it's I think 215 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: it's vocal, it's signals, it's whatever. They've got to find 216 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 1: a way to just be more efficient on the road 217 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 1: or make less stakes. And I have the communications causing that. 218 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: And by the way, today's a picture perfect day of 219 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: what Sunday is going to be in Landover Maryland. This 220 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: is the forecast. I checked it out. High of fifty two, 221 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 1: low of thirty nine, so it'll be getting down into 222 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: the forties by time we started. Roar twenty five in 223 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: the afternoon, sunny, but seventeen mile an hour win. They're expecting. Well, 224 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: there's a chance of rain out here today, and I 225 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 1: mean there's dark clouds to the north right now, and 226 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: so they may be practicing some in the rain too. 227 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: Bucky's got it covered. He doesn't send them out there 228 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: in the rain. Yeah, they do have music blaring already. 229 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: That's good, all right, simulating things. What do you think 230 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 1: the message is this week? I think you guys are 231 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: going down the right path. Yeah, I you know, this team, 232 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: it's you know it. I don't know. We sit there, 233 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: we kind of talk, and I know if we went 234 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: around the room and I started with me, I really 235 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: don't know what they are, you know, I want to 236 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 1: believe I think defensively I know what they are, you know, 237 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: been pretty consistent. But offensively I don't know what they are. 238 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: And that that, you know. My My thought is that 239 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 1: they want to run the football and they want to 240 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: play play action, and they want to do that, you know, 241 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: spread the ball around if they can when they throw it. 242 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: But I don't I don't know, I don't know. I mean, 243 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: I'm a little. I'm a little nervous about this when 244 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: they start talking about communication, because that's so much important, 245 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: that's so important to the game, you know, the game plan, 246 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: being able to convey, to make the calls, to get 247 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: the signals on the outside, to turn around and tell Zeke, Okay, 248 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: this is the call. You got to block this guy 249 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: over here on pass protection. You know that that to me, 250 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: that to me bothers me, that bothers. But if that's 251 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: if they if that's the thing that's holding them back, 252 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know how you you know, 253 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: Mickey's talking about the mistakes and stuff like that, but 254 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: if communications are leading to the mistakes, you know, how 255 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: do you correct that? You know? The only thing I 256 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: worry about that is it sounds like a crutch because 257 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: what did Jacksonville say after the game? Doug Moroney was 258 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: all about we had a lot of miscommunication out there, 259 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: and it's like, Okay, we're not bad, we're just you know, 260 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: is that like the excuse number one? Let's pull this 261 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: down and blame it on mis Do you think they 262 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: knew what they are? Do you think they knew what 263 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: they are? Offensively? I think they know what they want 264 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: to be, but they don't consistently get to it, you know, 265 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: And I don't know, they haven't been able to adjust 266 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: if a team takes away what they want to do. 267 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 1: You know, they just haven't been Now, home has been different. 268 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: Homes been fairly efficient, not even counting the care of 269 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: Jacksonville game, but it's been a it's a totally different 270 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 1: animal on the road. And I think which this guy's 271 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: always had his team, not that they're not ready, but he, 272 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: I mean, he's played better on the road. His record 273 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: will tell you that. That's why all that stuff's be Yes, 274 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: the road record, Yeah, the road record. The home record 275 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: is not a home field advantage. Now they're three and 276 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: oh at home and over and three on the road. 277 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: How do you flip that? But you don't. But you 278 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: don't see a trend there so far this season? Well, 279 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: I see, I mean it's vastly different offensively. Here's the 280 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: trend I see. Other than Jacksonville at home, the three 281 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: teams they played on the road had much better defenses 282 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: than what they played at home. Yeah, much better. Well, okay, Carolina, 283 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: Seattle in Houston, that's fine, Jacksonville, Jacksonville did Yeahsonville they're frauds. No, 284 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: they're not frauds. We'll see, we'll see it. But but 285 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: it's the same personnel that you know pretty much had 286 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: a historic run last year. Defensively, I don't think they're 287 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: a bad defense. Okay, they haven't played. They're not frauds. 288 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 1: They're not frauds. They didn't play defensively, you're not the 289 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: last two games. So are you not giving them credit 290 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: offensively for what they did against a good defense? No? 291 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: I think they did it against a bad defense. I 292 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: think they think it's one or the other. No, I 293 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: think they did well whole offensive. Who's the best defense 294 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: they've played against? Okay, okay, forget the stats. Yeah, just 295 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 1: just just think about the games they play. Houston's past 296 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: defense is horrendous. Well, but Houston's run defense was great 297 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 1: against Dallas, absolutely, and so from that, from what for 298 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:26,959 Speaker 1: what Dallas wants to do offensively? Right, Houston was probably 299 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: the toughest matchup for them because because if Houston's strength 300 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: on defense and their front seven got them all mixed 301 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: up with some different looks that they hadn't seen on film. 302 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: So it's more matchups I think than it is. Um 303 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: what wherever they rank statistically, How do they match up 304 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: against what you want to do? Yeah, Carolina, I think 305 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: you got to throw that game out, Okay, Carolina first game. Yeah, 306 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: they were just it was awful. Yeah, it was awful 307 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 1: all all the way around. Right, Carolina was bad on 308 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: offense too, Yeah, right, the quarterback run around a little bit. 309 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 1: I still think Houston was I think they were better 310 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: than Seattle, which is why I think that the coach 311 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: didn't go for it on fourth and one at the 312 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: forty two yards line. Is because guess who's tied for 313 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:19,439 Speaker 1: last in third and one conversions? Ezekiel Elliott four of 314 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: eight on third and one, you know, um, and and 315 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 1: they're nineteen running backs in the league that are one 316 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 1: thousand percent on third and one. So not all third 317 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: and ones are created equally, no, I understand, not even 318 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: fourth in one and a half nearly two. Yeah, you know. Interesting. 319 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: The frauds interesting. Interesting, we're talking about this as on 320 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 1: my drive in, I was listening to one of the 321 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: Cowboys Frauds of Offense, one of the local mavations that 322 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: they were talking about the Cowboys approach on offense and 323 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 1: they need to do it exactly what they did against 324 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 1: Jacksonville offensively this week and if they don't, he was 325 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: he was talking about running Dack Moore and that sort 326 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: of thing. Okay, you know what they did differently against 327 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: Jacksonville they executed. Yeah, okay, And when he when he 328 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: was talking about, oh, they need to take that on 329 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: the road, they need to do exactly what they did 330 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 1: against Jacksonville. Sure. Well, okay, let's go back to the 331 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: first drive of the game, and let's go ahead and 332 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 1: complete a pass of twenty seven yards to Michael Gallup nine. Yeah. Yeah, 333 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: we're starting back. We're starting badly there. Yeah. You know, 334 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: they got a field goal on that drive. Sure, they 335 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: had a third and five, a fifteen yard completion to 336 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley on the second drive that resulted in a touchdown. 337 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: They don't convert, they don't execute on third and nine 338 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: and third and five, and they punt instead, and you 339 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: got a scoreless game into the second quarter. I mean, 340 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: it changes the whole complexion of the game. They executed 341 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: in this game. Yeah, is it? Is that just too 342 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: easy to say? I mean, is that why it's it's 343 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: sue obvious? I Mean, we're we're sitting here looking for 344 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 1: all kinds of reasons is that just too obvious? Early 345 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: second quarter, they faced third and eleven at the forty 346 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 1: eight yard line and complete a twenty one yard pass 347 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 1: to Cole Beasley to extend the drive and it wound 348 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: up being an eighty four yard touchdown drive. And they 349 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 1: got help on a twelve men on the field. Penny 350 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: on that one too, right, was that they were gonna punt. Yeah, 351 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: they were gonna punt there. That was no. That was 352 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 1: the next drive. So they're facing fourth and two and 353 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: they got twelve men on that. They were punting already 354 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: on that drive, right. So, and even some of the 355 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: Dak running stuff is a little misleading. I'm with everybody 356 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: who says he needs to get out there and move 357 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 1: and do some of those things to get get the 358 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 1: offense defense on their heels a little bit. But they've 359 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: run reoption all season at times, maybe not maybe not 360 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: as much in this last game. But it's also the 361 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: way the defense is reading. You. Dak had opportunities to 362 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: keep the ball more in this last game because they 363 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 1: were focusing in on Zeke so much. Some of it 364 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: is the read. So yeah, maybe it's just pure execution 365 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: or five of the eleven runs he had were called 366 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: the rest were they just had scrambled? Yeah, yeah, it's 367 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: half and half. It wasn't half and half. Four or 368 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: five is not half of eleven. On that note, we 369 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: take your calls at a eight five five went to 370 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:25,679 Speaker 1: a really good school today.

Answer his questions. 464 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: How about this, If if I could improve Dak Prescott 465 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 1: in one area, what would it be. I was thinking 466 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,959 Speaker 1: about this question yesterday driving home. If I can approve 467 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott in one area, what would it be? Stay 468 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 1: as aggressive throwing the ball down the field as he 469 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: was against Jacksonville like that, I think about it. There 470 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: was a couple passes that he threw and again and 471 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: Michael Gallop wasn't all that wide open? Right? And you're 472 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: willing to live possible consequences, Yes, okay, As Tony Romo said, 473 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 1: if you're not throwing interceptions, you're not trying that. In fact, 474 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: when you look at the young quarterbacks around this league 475 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 1: and the old quarterbacks around this league, they are doing that. Well. 476 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 1: How about with conviction down the field. How about what 477 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: we were talking with Dennis Thurman last night and talking 478 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: about all the nineteen eighty five they had thirty six 479 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 1: interceptions thirty six as a team, thirty three by the DBS. 480 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: I watched him ruined Harold Carmichael's career. He knocked him 481 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 1: under the bench one time. Harold Carmack got like one 482 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: hundred and seven game consecutive streak. Thurman hit him so 483 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 1: hard he drove him under the bench, the Philly bench, 484 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: and basically ended his career. Mean, one other note on 485 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: Dennis Thurman last night. You can check it out whenever 486 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: it's posted Cowboys Legend Show. It was great, Micke. It 487 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 1: was a good get getting that And it was just 488 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: I saw him and I said, you live here, goes 489 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: eight years. He's like, well, how come I didn't know that? 490 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 1: And and of course Dennis Thurman was an eleventh round 491 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: draft pick of the Cowboys in nineteen seventy eight, played 492 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 1: here eight years, and then it was with exact Cridinals 493 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: his last his last year for Gene Stallings, who of 494 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 1: course was his coach secondary coach here. Yeah, and then 495 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: he went and got into coaching first with the Cardinals. 496 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: He was at USC throughout the nineties. Basically, in fact, 497 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: he coached Chris Richard, he recruited Chris Rochard on his 498 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: build that he kind of put that together. I figured 499 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: that out during the course of the interview that they 500 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: who was there at that time. And then of course 501 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: he was back in the NFL with the Ravens and 502 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: then the Jets. But get a load of this, Okay, 503 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: he played at you sc two time All American at USC, 504 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: and who were who was his teammate in the secondary 505 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: Ronnie Ronnie Lott, Yeah, okay. And then get a load 506 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: of the guys that he coached. Okay. And Ronnie Lott 507 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 1: credits Dennis Thurman even though he was just a peer 508 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: of his as being one of his mankings a freshman 509 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 1: when Nie was okay, So he was a mentor Ronnie Lott. 510 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: And so then Dennis Thurman he coaches at USC, he 511 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: had Troy Palamalu he did okay, And then with the 512 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: Ravens he had Edrey Deon Sanders was there as well. True. 513 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: Then he goes to the Jets and he has Reevaus 514 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: with the Jets, he does. So. I asked him to 515 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 1: put together his all time secondary that he is mentored 516 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: or coached in his career. And did he give you 517 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: the Bill Belichick answer of they're all below this guy? 518 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: Did you hear that yesterday? Yeah? I wonder if he 519 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 1: how he ranked those guys? How did how did he? Uh? 520 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: And he threw McAlister in there as well, Raven Yeah, 521 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: Chris McCallister. Actually Jason Seahorn he brought Yeah, Jason Seahorn 522 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: he brought up too, uh that he had would he 523 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: have had the Giants? He wasn't with the Giants Seahorn 524 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: USC okay, yeah yeah, the USC Yeah yeah, okay. And 525 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: so he started with lot and I have even prompted 526 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,239 Speaker 1: him on lot. Okay, let's start with lot. Yeah, there 527 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: you go. Paula was next, and then he mentioned he 528 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: didn't even mention Dion. You know dian I was there 529 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: for two years. Yea, the player at that point in time. 530 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: So the other interesting thing was is when he was 531 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: at Southern cow Rod Marinelli was coaching the Marinelli was 532 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: there too, huh. So think about it, and when we 533 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: went through it, he played or coached with or played 534 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: for John McKay, Robinson, uh, Tom Landry and then Gene Stallings. 535 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: And then when he was with the Cowboys, Ditka and 536 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: Eaves were assistant coaches. Right, that's incredible. Yeah, I guess 537 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 1: he was with Pete Carroll maybe at sc yep. Sure 538 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: they were turning that thing around in the absolutely. Yeah. 539 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: So back on changing deck back to interceptions, Yeah, no, 540 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 1: I mean, what do you got, rob I think that's 541 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: a really good one. Um. There's times where I think 542 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: he could just trust his protection a little bit more. Yeah, 543 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: And I'm not that he's always seeing ghosts, but I 544 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: think early there's been times where he's been hit a 545 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: lot and just affected the way he's played. Just hang 546 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: in there, you know, and and stay poised. And he's 547 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: done that at times too. But I like the word poised, 548 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 1: like pocket, pocket, poise, you know, um and that you know. 549 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: I think that comes with experience too. But I like 550 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: what Mickey said, They've they've got to not be reckless, 551 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 1: but just continue to force things, not force things, but 552 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 1: put that onus on the secondary because that that catch 553 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: from Gallop early in the game, it kind of got 554 00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: him going, got him going, It loosened things up, and 555 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: it made Jack and they'll respect them a little bit. 556 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: I hope that he continues, Like you say, the aggressiveness 557 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: you say down the field, I just say overall, yeah, 558 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: overall aggressiveness with the read option stuff, you know, throwing 559 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: the football, whatever he has to do to kind of 560 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: get him going in the game. I'd love to see 561 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: the anticipation. He made a couple of good anticipation throws. 562 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: The one to Beasley in the middle of the field 563 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: I thought was a good one when he was facing 564 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 1: some pressure. But I'm with you guys on staying aggressive. 565 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: I really am, because I think he's a better player 566 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: when he's aggressive, you know. I just I want to 567 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: see him do more with it's you know, it's running 568 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 1: the ball, throwing the ball on the edge, dan the pocket, 569 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: breaking the pot, whatever he has to do to continue 570 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 1: to manufacture off I think this offense feeds off that, 571 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: and I think when he gets some runs going, he 572 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 1: gives him some juice and then they get their play 573 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 1: action going and everything kind of works off of it. Yeah, 574 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 1: I'm in agreement. I like that. Do you think they're 575 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: having the same I agree. I think the aggressive it 576 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: goes against his nature taking care of the football, right, Yeah, 577 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: and he still needs to have that. Yeah, At the 578 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:11,719 Speaker 1: same time, he needs to be more aggressive in his approach, 579 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: I think, and I think he's starting to show that now. 580 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 1: And and a lot of that is trusting what they're 581 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: doing too, or trusting the receivers that actually like make 582 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: a catch right because you know, think about it, for 583 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: they're going to be at the same place where they're 584 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: supposed to be, right. All his interceptions have been off 585 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: his guy's hands. Yeah, you know, so it's not like 586 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: he's making bad reads, right, you know, those are the 587 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 1: ones you can't you can't excuse. But if you're being 588 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: aggressive and a guy makes a nice play, Okay, he 589 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 1: got me. I thought his high school coach made a 590 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 1: great point after the game. Somebody's asked him, what did 591 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: you tell Dak before the game? And he said, just 592 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: be Dak and everything will be just fine. Yeah, there 593 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: you go. And I think that, you know, sounds simple, 594 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 1: but that's who he is. Who he is, Just do it. Yeah, 595 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,959 Speaker 1: Rodney Gwynn high school coach, Haughton High School now at 596 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: Calvary Baptist Academy in Shreveport. We're all familiar with the 597 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: fall power. Yeah, well, and we're all familiar with who 598 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,839 Speaker 1: came out of there. Uh that would the Calvary place 599 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 1: the Booties did? The Booty Brothers? I think they would 600 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 1: be evangel Christian Evangel evangel Christian is the powerhouse, the 601 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: power Okay, I'm Calvary Baptist. Do you know what Super 602 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 1: Bowl winning coach coach there? No, I don't. Peter Peterson 603 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: ten years ago. Doug Peterson where the head coach of 604 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles. Ten years ago, two thousand and eight, 605 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:44,359 Speaker 1: he was the head coach at Calvary Baptist Academy in Shreveport, Louisiana. 606 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 1: This was, of course after his playing career and then 607 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 1: he got into coaching and maybe his kids were that age. 608 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: I don't know what's he from. Yes, yeah, he's a Louisian. 609 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: He would school Louisiana Monroe. Yeah, that's right northeast, but 610 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,399 Speaker 1: he was. He would for about four or five years 611 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: he was the head coach at Calvary Baptist Academy and 612 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:06,800 Speaker 1: then I guess went to Andy Reid, Kansas right after that. 613 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: And history, How amazing is that you go from being 614 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 1: a private school in Shreeport, Louisiana as the head coach 615 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 1: there and you win a Super Bowl less than ten 616 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 1: years later where he developed the Philly Special. Maybe that's 617 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 1: where it all started, where it all began right down 618 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,359 Speaker 1: the road. And I need to hire Rodney then, huh 619 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: y nine years him now? Or maybe Rodney Gwynn will 620 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 1: be the head coach subway? Where do you get Super Bowl? Yeah? 621 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: All right? Do you think they're having the same conversation 622 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 1: about Alex Smith posting the same question about Alex Smith 623 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: that you just post about Dak Prescott on talking Redskins, 624 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: what would you change about him? Because and the reason 625 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: I asked that, there are very there are similarities between 626 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:51,320 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott's approach and Alex Smith's approach. Yeah, I think that, 627 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: you know, Jay Gruden has come out and said they 628 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: need more from him, you know, they need more what 629 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: they you know, and I'll tell you I give him, 630 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: give him some credit. They found the found a youth 631 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 1: with Adrian Peterson running the football, and the three wins 632 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: they've had, he's averaged one hundred and four yards carrying 633 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: the ball. The losses, you know, not they haven't played 634 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 1: as well running the football. But yeah, I think that, 635 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 1: you know, if you look at Alex Smith, he's never 636 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: gonna do anything that's gonna that's gonna beat you, as 637 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: far as beat the team he plays for. But he's 638 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: never gonna do anything that makes you think like, Okay, 639 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 1: he's He's the reason why they're winning this game today. 640 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: You know, I think Kurt Cousins was a more It 641 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: was a better weapon to have to or a harder 642 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: weapon to have to deal with when watching Redskin taped 643 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 1: than I did with Alex Smith. And what I've seen 644 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 1: from Alex Smith. Okay, yeah, I think I think the 645 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 1: the the threat of the pass is greater with with 646 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. The payoff of bigger plays is it was 647 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: bigger with Kirk Cousins than it was. It's an interesting 648 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 1: decision that they made the Redskins did to get rid 649 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,919 Speaker 1: of Kirk Cousins to bring this guy on on. Yeah, 650 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 1: some of it had to be money too, right. I 651 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 1: think that Alex Smith signed a pretty significant deal. I 652 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: don't think it was the same. I don't have the 653 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 1: money in front of me, but I would think that, 654 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,359 Speaker 1: you know, it was they never were gonna reward Kurt 655 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 1: Cousins for the way he played, but maybe they felt 656 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: like that, Hey, Kurt Cousins puts up huge numbers and 657 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:23,319 Speaker 1: never wins. You know, you're right about Smith in terms 658 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,919 Speaker 1: of he won't beat you. Cousins will turn the ball 659 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 1: over at times, he'll he'll throw it to the other team, 660 00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 1: and Smith has been more efficient with that throughout his career. 661 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 1: He's also a more verse and he's kind of like 662 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 1: Dak and that he can run. He's an underrated guy. Mobile. 663 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: One thing that Gruden did say specifically was he needs 664 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,399 Speaker 1: to get the ball out quicker. Yeah, and I'm sure 665 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 1: he looks at Tank coming to town and say, we 666 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 1: can't you know, you got to others, David Irving, all 667 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: these guys, all of a sudden, this is the deepest 668 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,919 Speaker 1: D line we've seen in a while here. Yeah, four years, 669 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: ninety four million for Alex Smith. Yeah, signing bonus was 670 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: twenty seven million, and then the other guy guarantee the 671 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: other guy got eighty eight million. How much was guaranteed 672 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: on that, Well, it's guaranteed its signing fifty five million. 673 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:11,279 Speaker 1: The total guaranteed seventy one million on Alex Smith's one 674 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,800 Speaker 1: seventeen million less. I believe then it was all of 675 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 1: five was guaranteed, right right, right, Well, for that much guaranteed, 676 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,839 Speaker 1: I needed my quarterback to do better than the last 677 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 1: three games of completing sixty percent, fifty nine percent, and 678 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: fifty eight point three percent. Yeah. Yeah, but Alex Smith 679 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: the last five years or so. I saw a graphic 680 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,439 Speaker 1: on their game last week where he is the third 681 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,399 Speaker 1: winning his quarterback in the National Football League the last 682 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: five years since twenty eleven, with in his time with 683 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,319 Speaker 1: San Francisco, starting at a certain point of his career 684 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 1: in San Francisco. He's got seventy two wins and thirty 685 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 1: three losses and starting quarterback. Basically, I mentioned that to 686 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett the taping to the Jason Garrett Show yesterday. 687 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,319 Speaker 1: He said, look back at high school and in high 688 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,360 Speaker 1: school in California, he lost one game in high school, 689 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 1: and look at this time in college he was twenty 690 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,799 Speaker 1: one and one as a starter. Yeah, Urban with Urban Meyer, 691 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 1: I believe as a guy. Yeah, I mean, just the 692 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: best thing that he does is he wins. See, but 693 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 1: I think a lot of his winning is who is 694 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,439 Speaker 1: around him. I just I you know, I don't get 695 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,880 Speaker 1: I just don't get that vibe of, oh, this guy's 696 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: gonna go out there and he's gonna make X amount 697 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: of throws and it's gonna be he's gonna be the 698 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 1: if you shut things down around him. I don't see that. 699 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 1: I don't see. But he's been on something. The numbers 700 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 1: say he's been on winning teams. But I I just don't. 701 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,719 Speaker 1: I just don't. I don't feel him that way. Well, 702 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,880 Speaker 1: we've had this discussion with regard to Dak. You know, 703 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,720 Speaker 1: like there's there's a handful of guys in this league 704 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 1: that just load up on their shoulders and they'll get it. 705 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 1: They'll find a way to get it done. Protection is 706 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:55,400 Speaker 1: not great. Receivers aren't great Rogers Rogers is one of them, 707 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: and there's a couple others, and Smith is in that 708 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 1: probably next level of guys that, yeah, if he's got weapons, 709 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 1: he's he can be dangerous because he's not going to 710 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: really beat himself, but he does need guys around him. 711 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 1: And you know, having Jamison Crowder back would certainly help 712 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 1: for them. But he's he didn't practice again yesterday for Washington, 713 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 1: so's he's been out with the ankle. And Thompson only 714 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,399 Speaker 1: I was just looking at the boy. If both those 715 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: guys don't play, If both those guys don't play, that's 716 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 1: a huge break for the Cowboys. I think those guys. 717 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,320 Speaker 1: I think those guys have the capability of Thompson, especially 718 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 1: the way they throw him the football. You know, he 719 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 1: can make plays out of the backfield and if you're 720 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 1: not covering in the flats and you're not covering underneath, 721 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: and you know, he's one of those guys that you 722 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 1: hand it to him occasionally and then he's gotta burst 723 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,359 Speaker 1: run for fourteen yards. And yet they didn't have either 724 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 1: one of those guys last week and they won over Carolina. Yeah, 725 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,439 Speaker 1: I don't know what Caroline is over And a couple 726 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 1: of their offensive linemen are Dan Pade yesterday, yeah, suff Yeah, 727 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: he's the right guard, and Lavo he's the He's Yeah. 728 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 1: They've they've struggled. They've struggled a guard and what's happened 729 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 1: is I'm gonna say the guy's name wrong is Chase Roulierre. 730 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 1: He usually plays center, so what they've had to do 731 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: is they've had to play him at left guard, and 732 00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: then Tony Berkstrom has played at the center spot. So 733 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 1: they're using basically two centers inside. But they still got 734 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 1: you know, Trent Williams is still very capable. I'm gonna 735 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 1: write about about him today. He's the breakdown of the 736 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 1: matchup with him and having to deal, you know, with 737 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 1: Taco and then also with Randy Gregory having to rush 738 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 1: over there. You cannot let this guy get his hands 739 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: on you. You have to do everything in your power 740 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 1: to get small to rush this guy because if he does. 741 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 1: I've seen him. I've seen him two hand punch guys 742 00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 1: and they've gone off the screen. You know, when I'm 743 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 1: watching to I mean they go completely off the screen 744 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 1: and I'm like going, oh my god. Strength, yeah, power 745 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 1: and strength. They drafted him in two thou and ten 746 00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 1: when this division had great defense. It ends I was 747 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 1: pass rushing defensive end. He was. He was the tyrant Smith, 748 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,800 Speaker 1: the answer that the Cowboys and Cowboys had to do 749 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 1: some of their offensive line. But this guy's a fourth 750 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,799 Speaker 1: overall pick out of Oklahoma, and I mean he's played 751 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 1: at a high level for a long time. This was 752 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 1: a you know in d Ware, they had to match. Yeah, 753 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 1: they had a match. And then the Philly had guys. Giants, 754 00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:20,359 Speaker 1: I mean everybody. Giants had guys. Everybody had guys at 755 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 1: that time that can really rush the passer. And he 756 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:26,280 Speaker 1: was the answer to not getting your team killed because 757 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 1: he could play over there and be really effective doing it. 758 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 1: So what do you see from Morgan Moses? The right tackle, 759 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:33,439 Speaker 1: that's where you're going to have to make some hay. 760 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 1: That is where you I mean, Morgan Moses is one 761 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,320 Speaker 1: of those guys that could play really well for fifty 762 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 1: plays and then six plays he will give up the goat. 763 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: He will find a way to get overextended off balance, 764 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 1: you know, the way that that Lawrence can rush him. 765 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 1: Is that again, don't show him the same move, make 766 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,399 Speaker 1: him have to move. He's a long guy, really long 767 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 1: limbed guy, so when he gets going one way, it's 768 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 1: hard for him to come back the other way. So 769 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:05,880 Speaker 1: if you could get him to move, get him a 770 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:07,799 Speaker 1: little bit off balance, you know, that's the one thing 771 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,800 Speaker 1: that Lawrence can do. We've seen him on some of 772 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 1: those twist stunts too. When they make those guys have 773 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 1: to move a little bit, it gives those defensive of 774 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 1: those offensive line excuse me, some problems. So Moses Morgan, 775 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 1: Moses would be the guy that I would attack, and 776 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 1: Williams would be a guy if I could just get 777 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 1: one or two really good rushes off him. Don't let 778 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 1: him win every single snap, but you know, maybe get 779 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:33,839 Speaker 1: one or two from Randy Gregory. I think that would 780 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,399 Speaker 1: be that something that this defense could could really really use. 781 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,920 Speaker 1: That's what you're saying, is you get Moses off balance 782 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 1: a little bit, there, you might see the parting of 783 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 1: the red sea. You might see the party and talking 784 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 1: cowboys continues in a moment.

All Right, Jim in California, 870 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,879 Speaker 1: you're up, I'm talking Cowboys. Hello Jim, good morning. Thanks 871 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 1: for taking my call. Hey, I really felt the tight 872 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 1: ends for blocking better in Jacksonville. I felt they were 873 00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:48,719 Speaker 1: assignments sound and very aggressive, and I think that makes 874 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 1: the difference for offensive line for Zeke on his cutback 875 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 1: plays and where we pull the guards around. I think that, Yeah, 876 00:48:56,160 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 1: that's a big improvement. I felt Jacksonville had an answer 877 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 1: in the third quarter, but they followed it away and 878 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:07,360 Speaker 1: then as usual, Borders Boardles just made a bad decision 879 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: and threw in a triple coverage that just kind of 880 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,239 Speaker 1: took the wind out of their sales. Um. I feel 881 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,359 Speaker 1: the defense is playing better on third and long. We're 882 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 1: not giving up the go routes and zone like we 883 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 1: did in the beginning of the season, which is really nice. 884 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:23,839 Speaker 1: That means we're able to run mayn end zone. Um. 885 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:29,360 Speaker 1: You guys mentioned Chris McAllister earlier in Yeah, got to 886 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:34,799 Speaker 1: coach him in high school. Absolutely wonderful kid. Great athlete too, 887 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:37,440 Speaker 1: just just a wonderful guy. He was picked in the 888 00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:41,279 Speaker 1: first round. Second dB off the board trivia question? Do 889 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,759 Speaker 1: you remember the first dB off the board that year? 890 00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 1: What year would that have been? I think two thousand 891 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: and one. Try to do it without looking it up. No, 892 00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:51,360 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna look it up here, two thousand and one. 893 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 1: But was working in ten two thousand and one? And 894 00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 1: what number did McAlister look? Eleven? Might have gone at eleven, 895 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 1: top ten pick two thousand and one Champ Bailey that 896 00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:11,879 Speaker 1: year that Bailey ming being robbed. Phillips goes through Marquis game. Chris, 897 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:16,160 Speaker 1: had you have a Ohio State to put him on 898 00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 1: the map? He shut down to Marquis receiver? Do you 899 00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:26,439 Speaker 1: remember who that was against USC Ohio State? I'm saying 900 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 1: is that Joey Galloway was already Yeah, so I'm thinking 901 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:35,839 Speaker 1: Markey wide receiver? Two thousand and one. David Boston. When 902 00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:40,240 Speaker 1: was David Boston? There you go, Brian brought us. Okay, 903 00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:44,760 Speaker 1: let's shoot another one at us, all right? Coach, al right, coach? 904 00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:50,440 Speaker 1: That was you know what? Yeah? The way I like this, 905 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 1: the thought about the tight ends and the point of 906 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:55,160 Speaker 1: attack and getting the guards and the tackles and the 907 00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:58,400 Speaker 1: centers everybody around. That's that's really key. You know what 908 00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:02,360 Speaker 1: kills those plays, penned tration, penetration if they're able to 909 00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: can continue to get some type not talking about they 910 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:09,040 Speaker 1: have to get movement like you know, you would you know, 911 00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:11,360 Speaker 1: get them to three yards off the ball, But they 912 00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:15,120 Speaker 1: could just maintain the leverage, maintain position and allow these 913 00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: these tackles and these guards and these centers to get around. Yeah, 914 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 1: Zeke's gonna find way. Zeke's got that sneaky ability to 915 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 1: when it looks like a really small area, he kind 916 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 1: of squirts for an extra four or five yards a 917 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:30,919 Speaker 1: closer you get to the sidelines. So yeah, I'm I'm 918 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,279 Speaker 1: I'm all for that. Those guys can continue to block 919 00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 1: that way, then keep running the ball that way. You 920 00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:37,239 Speaker 1: don't think it was counter place. Think about this with 921 00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:40,359 Speaker 1: Blake Jarwin. It's probably the first time he's been asked 922 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:45,160 Speaker 1: to block. Yeah, he wasn't at Oklahoma State, not at all. 923 00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 1: He was off the line, tight end wide receiver and 924 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:52,040 Speaker 1: basically was a tall wide receiver. It's the way Oklahoma 925 00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:56,160 Speaker 1: State plays. Yeah, and he didn't it didn't play last year. Yeah, basically, 926 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,959 Speaker 1: so you know, maybe five four or five six games 927 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 1: in he's maybe kind of getting the hang of it 928 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:04,320 Speaker 1: a little bit. Can I ask a question though, I 929 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,239 Speaker 1: mean not not a question I normally have, but a 930 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:12,799 Speaker 1: question question would you're talking about Blake? But is there 931 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,000 Speaker 1: is there any merit to trying to play a little 932 00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 1: to try and get Dalton Schultz going at all? I 933 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:21,400 Speaker 1: mean we've seen and I'm just asking if it's talking. 934 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not talking if it's gonna be rico 935 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:29,640 Speaker 1: and swinging. And you drafted Schultz, you getting and Mickey, 936 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 1: you made a good point about Dalton Schultz block and 937 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:34,800 Speaker 1: have been asked a block, But has he made the 938 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:37,239 Speaker 1: plays down the field? Is he? I mean, is it 939 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 1: if you're if you're an opportunity, if you're getting if 940 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 1: you're getting just one of something. And I Am not 941 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:44,879 Speaker 1: trying to hurt the kid here, I'm just saying, though 942 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,360 Speaker 1: you did draft Dalton Schultz to be a blocker, and 943 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,800 Speaker 1: and the way that they've thrown some of these rookies 944 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:54,040 Speaker 1: out there, you know, Layton vander esh and then you 945 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 1: know we're starting to hopefully you get the wide receiver going. 946 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 1: Is it worth it to say Okay, if you're not 947 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:05,000 Speaker 1: getting totally at the total package out of to go 948 00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:09,800 Speaker 1: ahead and give Dalton Shoults some of those snaps, because 949 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:14,520 Speaker 1: it's a good question because but just because he's been 950 00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 1: inactive doesn't mean they haven't given up on Dalton shouts. 951 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:19,919 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, though, is it have you seen enough? 952 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 1: Have you seen enough? And again Mickey made a good 953 00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:24,839 Speaker 1: point about the guy has never blocked. I'm not too 954 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:28,080 Speaker 1: much Scholtz. I'm talking about Jarwin, but have you seen 955 00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:30,759 Speaker 1: enough of him to say, Wow, you know he's maybe 956 00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:33,040 Speaker 1: holding up what you're gonna what you could get from 957 00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:36,920 Speaker 1: Dalton Sholtz? Well, yeah, I mean and he did it. 958 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:38,960 Speaker 1: He had a nice block on the Dack touchdown run. 959 00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:41,279 Speaker 1: He sure did. He blocked two in that play. But 960 00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 1: you know that you were hoping he'd give you more. 961 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:45,400 Speaker 1: In the passing game. Down the field, he had an 962 00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 1: opportunity to make it catch deep catch, dropped it off 963 00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 1: his hand. If you could have a blocker or a catcher, 964 00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:56,279 Speaker 1: which one would you take? Right now? God, I mean 965 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 1: you kind of need but another option in the past, 966 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:03,400 Speaker 1: aren't take it? Somewhat disappointed in Schultz's blocking though, coming 967 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,920 Speaker 1: out of training camp. Yeah, he is. He is not 968 00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:09,800 Speaker 1: he had not play, he has not played, or he 969 00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:13,840 Speaker 1: did not show what he's shown. I was able to 970 00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:16,359 Speaker 1: show at Stanford that that part of it has been 971 00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 1: that part of it itself is part of his blocking. 972 00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:21,320 Speaker 1: Did he not do? Is he not strong at the 973 00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 1: point of attack? The problem? The problem where maybe they're 974 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 1: working with him on that. Yeah, I mean, I you know, 975 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 1: when you when you don't, when you don't, uh, when 976 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,280 Speaker 1: you don't get when you're not active, then you're generally 977 00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:35,839 Speaker 1: a scout team guy. So I'm just saying, do they 978 00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:39,400 Speaker 1: do they figure out like, Okay, listen, we we're not 979 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:42,160 Speaker 1: Let's let's see if we can get this guy going. 980 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 1: Let's see if we can. You know, it's like the 981 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 1: Michael gallup there. I keep saying that, but Mickey's right 982 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:49,160 Speaker 1: about that. Get him the football, try to get him going. 983 00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:51,040 Speaker 1: You know, see if you can kind of take the 984 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:55,120 Speaker 1: learning curve for Layton Vanderesh is zero. The learning curve 985 00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:57,160 Speaker 1: looks like for everybody else is a little bit so. 986 00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 1: But how you know, how do you do that? You 987 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:02,759 Speaker 1: you play him if you feel good about Swain and 988 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 1: Rico seems to be going up in his ability, you know, 989 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:10,880 Speaker 1: does does having does having Schultz getting reps working as 990 00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:13,239 Speaker 1: a blocker, and maybe they feel like that since he's 991 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,719 Speaker 1: been active, that that he's improved his strength a little 992 00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:17,960 Speaker 1: bit and maybe he's improved his technically. That's what I'm wondering. 993 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:21,000 Speaker 1: Maybe they maybe he's working in more in the weight room. Yeah, 994 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,440 Speaker 1: he's getting now, and now the game isn't too you 995 00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:26,320 Speaker 1: know now the game. It's hard to believe that a 996 00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:28,919 Speaker 1: player from Stanford would be the game would be too big. 997 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:31,600 Speaker 1: But you know, early on he looked like the game 998 00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:33,320 Speaker 1: was too big. Well, but I think Bill said it. 999 00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:35,439 Speaker 1: I think just you watch him in practice. He wasn't 1000 00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:38,720 Speaker 1: as strong at the point of attack then maybe you expected. 1001 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:40,880 Speaker 1: How about those times and the one on the compete thing, 1002 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,439 Speaker 1: they were like one oh, but the other thing the ground. 1003 00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:46,759 Speaker 1: The other thing to remember about him is that he's 1004 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,160 Speaker 1: younger than the other tight end. He's two years younger 1005 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 1: than everybody else. He's twenty two years old, right. I 1006 00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 1: just looked up Jarwin's twenty four, Swains twenty five, and 1007 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:58,400 Speaker 1: Rico's twenty four. It's a little like Connor Williams. Give 1008 00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:00,480 Speaker 1: him an off season, you know, give full off yea, 1009 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:04,040 Speaker 1: and they've thrown Connor Williams out there. And I hear 1010 00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:06,120 Speaker 1: your point, because what Jason Garrett always says is that 1011 00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 1: young guys need to play. The only way they're gonna 1012 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,359 Speaker 1: get better is to get to play now. But all 1013 00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:13,040 Speaker 1: these guys are young guys. They are The question is 1014 00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:15,759 Speaker 1: has he shown them enough in things we don't see 1015 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:17,359 Speaker 1: to say, hey, we can give him a few reps 1016 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:19,239 Speaker 1: and he won't hurt us and maybe he can help us. 1017 00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:21,879 Speaker 1: I don't know, because you know what with these tight ends, 1018 00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:25,080 Speaker 1: all you're asking him to do is don't number one, 1019 00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:27,400 Speaker 1: don't get run over right in the way, and number 1020 00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:31,200 Speaker 1: two just shield I mean Winton wasn't pancake in and 1021 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:36,640 Speaker 1: nobody sure right kind of yeah, James Hannon, James Hannah 1022 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:38,279 Speaker 1: is the one guy that could get into somebody and 1023 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:40,360 Speaker 1: run a little bit and then if you and you 1024 00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:43,719 Speaker 1: ran with him, he could turn you. But you're Mickey's right, 1025 00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:46,680 Speaker 1: I just you know you you But I just trying 1026 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 1: to say, okay, how to how to kind of bring 1027 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:54,200 Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz back into the mix, you know, and maybe 1028 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: not not make this year a waste for him that 1029 00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:59,200 Speaker 1: you know, maybe he is, maybe he's better than Blake 1030 00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 1: Jarwin is a blocker and then you can develop some 1031 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 1: of the other things. It's a thought for sure. Yeah, yeah, 1032 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:05,960 Speaker 1: we'll see. We have a lot of good thoughts here 1033 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:10,920 Speaker 1: on Talking Cowboys, and maybe we'll express them someday, maybe tomorrow, 1034 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:16,280 Speaker 1: here on Talking count seat.
