Speaker 1: that what it was? Yes? For those who were counting

16
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,400

Speaker 1: And that's what we will do for the next hour.

18
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: We invite your phone calls as well. Eight eight eight

19
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: eight five five two two nine seven. Rob, you made

20
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: the trip to Seattle. You have a good weekend. I

21
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: mean the CITC Northwest. It's beautiful up there. It's great.

22
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 1: Took in a college football game. Oh you went to

23
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: the Washington Arizona Show. Yeah, enjoyed that. That was great.

24
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: Love it up there. Those three hours. Not good. Not good.

25
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: I mean some good things, but continuations of problems that

26
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: we saw in Week one that are really hurting this team,

27
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: especially offensively. And Brian brought us was holding down the

28
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: fort here at the Star and you enjoyed his fine

29
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: work pre and post game. And now we hear from

30
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: Brian brought us his first take on what happened. Now.

31
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: I just think there's, like Rob said, there's a lot

32
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: of the same things that happened to this team. I've

33
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: never seen an offense that does more to get in

34
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: its own way as far as they cannot overcome bad

35
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: things that happened to them, you know. And it's whether

36
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 1: it's a down and distant situation, it's an awareness situation,

37
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 1: it's a mistake of not blocking a guy, it's a

38
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 1: drop pass. This offense is just not good enough to

39
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: overcome bad things that happened to them. And there's there's

40
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: teams that take sacks. There's teams that fumble, there's teams

41
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 1: that take that have interceptions. But when you watch this,

42
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: it's not just the play calling, but there's so many

43
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 1: things involved when you watch this team and the problems

44
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: that they have. You know, Mickey talks about the protection

45
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: that's a problem, the quarterback not seeing the field, the

46
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: receivers not catching the ball. There's just so many things

47
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: that when they do get a little bit of momentum,

48
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: then something happens to them. They just the negative plays

49
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: are just are too much for this offense to even

50
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,239
Speaker 1: overcome their challenged to move the football because of mistakes

51
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: that they make. And because they're challenged to move the football,

52
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: it's difficult to overcome mental mistakes that occur. Yeah. Well,

53
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: and they had far too many of those. Uh you know,

54
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: Brian mentioned it. You have three or four drop passes, Yeah,

55
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: two of them end up being intercepted. You run the

56
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: ball into the red zone, and then you fumble. The

57
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: longest play of the day. You throw a touchdown pass.

58
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: But for some reason, the running back didn't see the

59
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 1: four foot wide white stripe at the end on the sideline.

60
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: It stepped out of pounds Previously, it's it's it's just

61
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: hard to keep overcoming those things. And then you get

62
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: yourself in situations where Seattle all they gotta do is

63
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: pin their ears back and come at you. You get

64
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: a team that only had three sacks in two games,

65
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: get five five and hit your quarterback ten times. So

66
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 1: if we added up in the two losses, that's eleven

67
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 1: sacks and twenty quarterback hits. It's hard to play football

68
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: that way, and you can't and you know, don't sit

69
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: there and just say, well, Joe Looney's playing center, or

70
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: Connor Williams is the left guard, he's a rookie. It

71
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 1: was across the board, yeah, across the whole five. Frank

72
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: Clark had himself a day. They moved Frank Clark around yesterday,

73
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: which was really smart on their part because they felt

74
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: like that, really that Lyle Collins is not good enough

75
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 1: as a right tackle to handle him one on one.

76
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: So the smart thing is take him away from a

77
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: guy you feel like, well, he's not gonna win every

78
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 1: battle against Tyrant Smith, but move him over to the

79
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 1: other side, and you know he made plays over there.

80
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what that you know, It was very

81
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: very clear that they had a plan of how they

82
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 1: wanted to attack the Cowboys and offensively for the Seattle Seahawks,

83
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 1: their plan was very clear. They were comfortable running the

84
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: ball for three yards to carry because they saw how

85
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: an FPP the Dallas offense was right. The Dallas offense

86
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: never forced Seattle to change their game plan. One team

87
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: was desperate and committed. The other team was just desperate

88
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,160
Speaker 1: and confused. And that's why that penalty at the end

89
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: of the first half was so critical in this game.

90
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: When when you get behind two scores against a team

91
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: that realizes that it can just run the football because

92
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 1: it's not being pressed by the other team's offense. It

93
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: was almost like they were running the ball to eat

94
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: clock because they certainly knew said Carolina did in the

95
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 1: first week of the season. When there's big there was

96
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: no reason for them to get out of any of

97
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: their mode. I mean it was almost like, uh, you know,

98
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: if you look at the numbers of the game, and

99
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: again I don't always do this this way, but if

100
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 1: a quarterback is sixteen to twenty six for one ninety two,

101
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: two touchdowns, no interceptions and they wins the game, that's

102
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 1: kind of Dak Prescott like in twenty sixteen, and one

103
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: of one of them was a huge, one huge play

104
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 1: fifty two yards for a touch exactly. You take that

105
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: away and it's yeah, he's not on the far side

106
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: on the flip side. The losing quarterback was nineteen to

107
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: thirty four for one sixty eight, one touchdown and two interceptions.

108
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 1: Three turnovers were huge in this game. Mickey talked about

109
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 1: it is you have the you have the Earl Thomas, uh,

110
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: you know, first one off the ground, basically great job

111
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: of him being in position. Michael Gallup has got to

112
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 1: catch that foot to see that. That drive, to me

113
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 1: is symptomatic of the whole thing we talked about. You

114
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 1: people are gonna question the play calling. Okay, here's a drive.

115
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: Second drive of the game. They had a good design.

116
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: On first down, they faker reverse the Tavon handoff to

117
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: Zeke seven yards. Good position. Then they go into round

118
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 1: a Tavon. Okay, they're trying to spread things out. Yeah,

119
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 1: some time things open up things inside. Yeah, Gallup has

120
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: to make that catch on first and ten and it

121
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: and hey, Earl Thomas teriffic awareness to be able to

122
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: you know, scoop that off. His free actionary player amazing.

123
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 1: But see, yeah, you're right, Rob, but you to your point.

124
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: It's it was a lot of different things. You know.

125
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: It was drops, it was the Mickey's right, the protection.

126
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 1: It's not the same offensive line that we saw, you know,

127
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: and it's not just the offensive lineman. The tight ends.

128
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: Zeke did it again. He goes to cut a guy

129
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: and a guy jumps over him and blast her quarterback

130
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: stand up and hit him in the chest. How many

131
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: more times has that got to happen? It affected the

132
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: way that Dak threw the ball to the outside. They

133
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: had Hearns open on the outside and Zeke goes low

134
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: and now the guy's up in Dak's face, and you know,

135
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: if you hit him square, you have a chance. And

136
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 1: you know, I just go back to the quarterback has

137
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: been struggling with some of his visional some of the reds.

138
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: But what he does on the slant to on the

139
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: slant that Gallop drops, he's looking away to set to

140
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: give Gallop the chance to you know, so the safeties

141
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: will day on one side of the field. So Prescott's

142
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: doing exactly what he has to do to get Gallop open,

143
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: and he puts the ball right where Gallup needs to

144
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: catch it, and you know everybody knows the result. But

145
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: here's here's a play call. Here is a execution on

146
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: the quarterback's behalf to help you. But the Finnish is horrendous, right,

147
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: So okay, how are you you want to know why

148
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: this offense is not any good play call, execution, finish.

149
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: None of them seem to work for this football team

150
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:38,319
Speaker 1: offensively right now? You know, Mickey brought it up and

151
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: Zekiel running out of balance, and Garrett says, well, he's

152
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 1: a very aware player. I understand. I mean he gets wide,

153
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: he gets wide, he gets white, he keeps getting wide,

154
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 1: and then he's gonna burst to try and make the

155
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 1: turn up the field. But Dak is yeah, Dak is

156
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: coming to him. And now it's like and once again

157
00:08:55,880 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: what happens. Play breaks down, quarterback figures it out, athletically

158
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: gets to the outside. Okay, here we go, play call, execution, finish.

159
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: The finish is your is your running back? Who you

160
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: who you trust to win games for you? Steps out

161
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: of bounds? Is it a mistake? Yeah? Is it a

162
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: minital mistake. It's an awareness mistake, he said it. I

163
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 1: had terrible awareness on that play and the worst part

164
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: he didn't know where he was. Yeah, and the worst

165
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 1: part is it's it's it nullifies the play. Yeah, but

166
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: it's not a penalty where you get the down over.

167
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: It got to kick a field goal and you can't

168
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: be kicking field goals. And then the other problem in

169
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: what's been going on, and it goes back to what

170
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: I wrote on Friday. This defense had to continue playing

171
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: well to buy the offense time. And they have two

172
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: busted coverages which they just can't afford. And then the

173
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: Randy Gregory brain fart at the end of the half.

174
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 1: Although having watched warm ups, Janikowski would have blasted a sixty.

175
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 1: But this is where you also you take a chance.

176
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: You know, you're giving him fifteen yards. You're saying, okay,

177
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: you're a Hall of Fame kicker and you probably are

178
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: gonna make a seventy yard field goal or whatever. This guy,

179
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: he's you know, he's rare. He's he's like that guy

180
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 1: the cornerback from the Redskins that played for forty years,

181
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 1: you know that Green, Daryl Green. These guys that you

182
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 1: look at him and you go no way, and and

183
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 1: it's gonna be But don't judge this Lake Lake strength

184
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: by his shape. But but that's what I'm saying, don't

185
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 1: give him fifteen yards yards because he makes that. He

186
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: makes that every single time. It was a momentum play

187
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: too for Seattle, and they get the park started by

188
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,439
Speaker 1: Seattle Joey Hunt the Joey TCU hornenfrog. It was a

189
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 1: smart play. That was the only way they were gonna

190
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: get fifteen yards on that particular play. Bade him into

191
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: doing something and they did it. Yeah, but that just

192
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 1: shows you. You know, we talked about it to discipline too.

193
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: You know, we talked about this blind you're gonna have

194
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 1: to play. But Seattle, they played. Seattle played exactly how

195
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: they wanted to play. Yesterday they played exactly how they

196
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: want to play, and they protected the quarterback. They did

197
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 1: a better job of that. They'd given up a dozen

198
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 1: sacks and they're two lots, but there was always get two.

199
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 1: You gave him no reason, you you know, you didn't

200
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 1: put him in situations the guy went back to twenty

201
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: six times. You know, you didn't put him in a a

202
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 1: situation where he had to throw the ball thirty eight

203
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: forty times. You're so right, though, I mean, Carson gets

204
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 1: thirty two carries in this game for only one hundred

205
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: and two yards. But but Brian Schottenheimer did the smart thing.

206
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: He this is what you always talk about, know the

207
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: condition of your team. He knew Dallas offensively was not

208
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: going to do anything. He saw that, and so it's

209
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 1: real easy for for Pete Carroll to click over and

210
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: say run it here, run it, run it again, and

211
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 1: just keep doing that. And what happened? What did he do?

212
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 1: He had he had three new starters inside into the

213
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: interior offensive line, right. He not only did Schottenheimer protect

214
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 1: his offense, he protected his to his offensive line, he

215
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: protected his quarterback as well, especially when Dallas has the

216
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: length of the field to drive offensively. I mean, and

217
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,319
Speaker 1: which is why that roughing the passer penalty on Tyrone

218
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 1: Crawford on the third offensive play for Seattle, which critical

219
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,319
Speaker 1: in the first quarter of that game, because and now

220
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 1: Dallas needs to get off the field. Have to overcome

221
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,439
Speaker 1: that adversity and get them off the field. But if

222
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 1: they're punning on that after that third down playoff, they

223
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: don't throw the flag on that, cowboys are getting the

224
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,199
Speaker 1: ball at the forty their own forty yard line instead

225
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: of they wound up getting it at their own fifteen yard.

226
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: There was a time where his team could be able

227
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: to drive the example, and they don't do that anymore.

228
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: Two years ago they could do that's right. Here's another example.

229
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 1: First drive of the third quarter, get a holding penalty

230
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: on the return or punt return. Then Rico gets a

231
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: false start, and all of a sudden, you're at second

232
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: and fifteen at your own six. After Zeke gets stopped

233
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 1: for no game, Tyron gives up a sack. I mean,

234
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: it's when when an offense struggles this much, it's always

235
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: a lot of different things except that Atlanta game. Then

236
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 1: they have a situation where they had Rico jumped off sides. Yes,

237
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 1: that's the play, and they completed They completed a pass.

238
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: Thompson got a ten got ten yard game. Okay, so

239
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: now you're thinking if it's first and ten or second ten, Okay,

240
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: they've got the they've got the yard, they've got it.

241
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: They got a first down with the ten yard pass,

242
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: but they come up five yards short a third and five,

243
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 1: they have a third five. Now they're having to throw

244
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: the football and they get the sack. Like this is

245
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: just I wrote about that last night. This is just

246
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: typical of what this offense is right now. It can't

247
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: it can't help itself. There's no you know, the one

248
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: energy plays that it the energy plays that it has

249
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:46,839
Speaker 1: is generally when they get the ball to number ten,

250
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: that's the one guy that's got some juice, the kind

251
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: of got going they get. They get the jet sweeper

252
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 1: eighteen yards poom, everybody's blocking up front. I mean, he

253
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: gives you a little juice. And there's no other jew

254
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: a spark that's happening with this team offensively, And it

255
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: shows you how weird the game was. Zeke ran the

256
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 1: ball very well, I mean seven point nine yards a pop,

257
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: but he also just hurts you so bad in the game.

258
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: You know, that's the irony of it. Was he I

259
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 1: mean he admitted it. He thought he well, he thought

260
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 1: they'd cost him the game. I wouldn't go that far,

261
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: but they left maybe at least a touchdown, maybe ten

262
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: points on the board right there, with a couple of mistakes,

263
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: not to mention a third down that he might have

264
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 1: completed on third and nine, might have I went back.

265
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: It was there. It was It was Kendricks. Was it

266
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: Kendrick Kendricks, And I mean he was on the upfield hip,

267
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be if you the ball's out in front,

268
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 1: and if he catches it, he breaks that tackle, it's

269
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: an easy first. But if he if Kendricks makes that tack,

270
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: which is probably what's gonna happen because his offense can't

271
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: get a break, you know it's gonna be four yards short.

272
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: But I'll take my chances throwing the ball to Zekiel

273
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: Elliott on the move. But what happens. He had the

274
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: crazy Tony Dorset hands and he's usually he could Yeah,

275
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 1: and everybody, everybody's like, get him involved in the passing game,

276
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: get him involve the passing game. Okay, you're trying to

277
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: get him involved the passing game. You know you're trying.

278
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: And that happens. Now you're like, but does that mean

279
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 1: you stop trying to get him involved? No, But gosh,

280
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: it just makes you think, like, Okay, who else can

281
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: I throw it to? If my best players not making plays?

282
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: Who is going to make plays? Who is Jeff Swayin

283
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 1: went five catches, and a lot of that was, Hey,

284
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: we got to get the ball out quick. Let's get

285
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: it out first read, Let's go to sway Let's try

286
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: to get in a manageable situation here on third down

287
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: and Seattle did, which is the boy to get into

288
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: a rhythm, right? You know? You know Cole Beasley was

289
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: interesting after the game. He's talking about communication issues that

290
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: they're talking. Yeah, I mean communications as far as not

291
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: hearing on the outside or oh no, I think that

292
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: the problems that they're having offensively related to communication issue.

293
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: And I don't know. I just heard the SoundBite. I

294
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 1: didn't hear the full context of it. Didn't But I'm

295
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: wondering where. I wonder if he's going crowd because we

296
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 1: didn't mean crowd. Let everybody not on the same page.

297
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 1: As far as the past execution, the passing, well, that's

298
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 1: in a terrible indictment of what's going on then in

299
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: those meetings. If that's the case, and I don't know

300
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: if that's if that's what he means, that's a terrible indictment.

301
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: Right least they didn't try to be twelve men on

302
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 1: the field twice and twice twice. This again goes back

303
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: to the offense. You get a break, it's third and six,

304
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: you get twelve minut on the field. Now you're third

305
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: and one. I'll take Zeke Gillett running the ball for

306
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: third and one every time chuck for two hundred police

307
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 1: and they got and they got stuff. No, they don't

308
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: block Bobby Wagner. How did he not talk him? How

309
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 1: do you not block their best player? See, that's what

310
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And it looked like to me that maybe

311
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: that once again, you know, and I'm not pointing to

312
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 1: figure here, but just looking at scheme that everybody's down

313
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: blocking but Lyle Collins and they're trying to get the

314
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 1: they're trying to get Jeff swam around the corner to

315
00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: maybe trap or log that guy in press could have

316
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: pulled the ball and then gone forward for a yard,

317
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 1: you know, if he wanted to. Earl Thomas was sitting there,

318
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 1: but they there was some confusion on the outside between

319
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 1: Swaying and hearns what was going on over there. But

320
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 1: you don't block Bobby Wagner and he runs through for

321
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: no game. Okay, I thought about you in that play.

322
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 1: I was like, mic linebacker right, got identify him because

323
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: he was the one guy that can make the tackle

324
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: at the point of attack. And so you're saying, okay,

325
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 1: it's how many times the third and one handed to

326
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,120
Speaker 1: Zeke first down? Should be automatic first down. How many

327
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: times now this team can't even block the damn mic

328
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: linebacker to get a first down and they catch a

329
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: break on a twelve minute on the field, right, Not

330
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: third and six, it's third and one. All right, we're

433
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 1: Eight five five two two nine seven the number two

434
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 1: call to join us here on Talking Cowboys. How about

435
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 1: we start this segment off with a phone call from

436
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 1: Palmer in Georgia. Palmer, you're up on Talking Cowboys? All right, gentlemen,

437
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,399
Speaker 1: I've got a theory on this whole quarterback thing. Okay.

438
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 1: Tony Romo's last year the play clock away. He always

439
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 1: snapped the ball with one or two seconds lap, and

440
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: there were a lot of people crying, why aren't they

441
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: running the ball, especially in the red zone. Well, I

442
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,359
Speaker 1: think everyone's conclusion was that Tony was check now to

443
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 1: run plays into throwing plays. I think it's time to

444
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: put the handcuffs back on Dak. Dak's first year, the

445
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,400
Speaker 1: ball was always snapped with ten or more second left

446
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 1: on the play cut he was actually running the play

447
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: that was called. I think that. I think if he

448
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: ran every play that was called yesterday, I think it

449
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: would have at least looked a little bit better. I

450
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,120
Speaker 1: just think it's time to put him back in kindergarten

451
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: and just take put the handcuffs back on. That's my theory. Hell,

452
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 1: I don't even know if that would work. That's aw

453
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 1: you do that, Thank you Palmer. Sorry I was confused.

454
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,719
Speaker 1: He doesn't want Dak to have the ability to check

455
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: to check. He feels like and if you talk to

456
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: some NFL people around the league about that the first year,

457
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: that and there's coaches that will say, it's kind of

458
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 1: nice to have a rookie quarterback. So because a rookie

459
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 1: quarterback never qu since your call. A rookie quarterback just

460
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 1: runs the play whatever you And there's some guys around

461
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: the league with veteran quarterbacks, you know, it's just a

462
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 1: really good example. But he's really good at it. Is

463
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 1: the guy down in New Orleans, you know, and he's

464
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 1: really good at getting in and out of place. But

465
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 1: there's something too. Play callers kind of like a guy

466
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: that will say, Okay, I'm not gonna question what you're

467
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 1: gonna call. I mean, I'm not going to the quarterback.

468
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,120
Speaker 1: It's not gonna question what I'm gonna call. I'm gonna

469
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:25,439
Speaker 1: call this play and we're gonna see if we can

470
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: execute it. But I don't know if necessarily, if it's

471
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: Dak changing plays at the line, not be that every time.

472
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: I don't think so every time. But I mean he

473
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 1: threw out a theory and we'll need to see that.

474
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: That's it's a thought. And we did talk about that

475
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: in the press box. It's like, all right, this is

476
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: down to one second and they know exactly when the

477
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:44,399
Speaker 1: ball is gonna be. It helps him get off this

478
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 1: off the ball. There is something too. I had some

479
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 1: people on Twitter and you guys watch the game too.

480
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 1: Are they tipping their snap count? Though with a touch

481
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: from Zack Martin, a head turn from Joe Looney and

482
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,120
Speaker 1: then the snap or or or or guys good enough

483
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: on the defensive line to kind of go into a

484
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 1: game and say, Okay, when I see Joe Looney turn,

485
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: I'm going you know, I'm just asking this question, Clark.

486
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just asking today. Yeah, because he jumped

487
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 1: the count one time against him against Tyren Smith, not

488
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 1: the sack, but one time before the Tyron Smith, just

489
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: being the athlete he is, was able to get enough

490
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: of him to lyle Prescott to step up in the

491
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: pocket a little bit. But I wonder if if you

492
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 1: want to tell me that maybe that dat needs to

493
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: play with the snap count a little bit more. I'll

494
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: buy into that, because there's there was several times where

495
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:44,160
Speaker 1: I saw him frantically going to the line of trying

496
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,399
Speaker 1: to get and and then I looked up and it's like, well,

497
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: wait a minute, there's fourteen seconds left, right, what's the

498
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 1: hurry slow down? I don't but see what happens. It's

499
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 1: not like he's going up to the line of scrimmage

500
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: when he changes the call and he has the roller

501
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: decks of plays when they give them that play they've practiced. Okay,

502
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: if you don't like this, look, then check to this.

503
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: It's not like he's just going through his mind and going, well,

504
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,120
Speaker 1: let me try this. That stuff's all pre planned. Now

505
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 1: he is he making the wrong decision getting out of

506
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 1: a run to throw the ball, or getting out of

507
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 1: a throw to run the ball. That's maybe what's going on,

508
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: But I don't know in that environment, I'm not checking

509
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,160
Speaker 1: a lot of place. That's just me. I'm not going

510
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 1: in with the idea of like, Okay, I'm gonna sit

511
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: here and just go through while my tackles can't hear,

512
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,680
Speaker 1: my receivers can't hear. I mean, my backs can't hear.

513
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: I'm not going in there with the idea of doing that.

514
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 1: So I understand his question. But I think to Mickey's

515
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 1: point is it's not every single down that you're seeing

516
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 1: him do this. You know, I just don't. Can I

517
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 1: throw out one more thing offensively? That surprised me, you guys,

518
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: surprised that the lack of his own read looks in

519
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: the game. As I went back and watched it this morning,

520
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,200
Speaker 1: the first one I saw was eleven fifty three left

521
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,120
Speaker 1: to go in the game. Oh, they the one where

522
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: he pulled it that one way. He had a couple

523
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: of them where they actually Zeke's one of Zeke's seven

524
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 1: yard runs, Yeah, was a was a was a read option. Yeah,

525
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,159
Speaker 1: and he and he and he, I could said on

526
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 1: the third and one on the first series, he could

527
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 1: have pulled the ball and doe for the first down

528
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: on that one. Instead, he trusted that Zeke could come

529
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 1: how get past Bobby Wagner. I just didn't notice much

530
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: of it in the game compared to last No, I'm

531
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: I'm almost a half. You know. We got the film

532
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 1: late and I was in this morning after parent teacher conferences,

533
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: and I I've noticed, though not as prevalent so far

534
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 1: as what it was last week, and it was pretty effective. Now,

535
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: maybe that can they can see things like at the

536
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and say, oh, this is not a

537
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: good situation. Well enough, y'all of a sudden you have

538
00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: a safety walk. And then they had the safety walk

539
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: and down. The other day they played a lot of

540
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 1: single safety high with Earl by himself. But they still

541
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 1: ran for one hundred and sixty seven yards. Did that

542
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: was not a problem averages eight yards a carry. Running

543
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: the ball wasn't the problem. Okay, I made the point earlier.

544
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 1: Was one coordinator committed and the other one not. And

545
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to put the It sounds like I'm

546
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 1: trying to place the sole blame of this on Lenahan,

547
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 1: and I guarantee you, I'm sorry, Joe and Flower, Mountain,

548
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 1: Vic and Ventura. I'm not trying to offend you here

549
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 1: as a fan, but I don't know if you necessary

550
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: and I'm not going to defend Linahan. But I'm saying

551
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:42,239
Speaker 1: here and I'm asking you guys, did he Were they

552
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: not as committed as say Seattle was well? And there

553
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: is there time? Should we be more committed now? If

554
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: this offensive line is not He threw He threw thirty

555
00:29:55,040 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: four passes. Yes, okay, two were in a miserably failed

556
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: two minute drill at the end of the first half.

557
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: Right ten came after they were two scores down with

558
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: five minutes left in the game. Last twelve of his

559
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 1: passes came in either two minute drill or desperation with

560
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 1: five minutes to go, when you're down twenty four thirteen.

561
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: So twelve of the thirty four attempts happened in that situation.

562
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 1: Otherwise you had thrown twenty two passes and you ran

563
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: it sixteen times. So those numbers get skewed because of

564
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 1: the situation. But he but he he had good enough

565
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: balanced in for you guys, and is that what is

566
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 1: is that what you're trying to just saying majure half

567
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: a third of his passes came when they were in

568
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 1: situations where I think I think it was very similar

569
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: both teams commitment to the run and myself. Okay, when

570
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 1: you look at Chris Carson, he had ten carries in

571
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter after they were up twenty four or

572
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: six ten of us end of his thirty two and

573
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: so he had twenty two carries through three quarters of

574
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: the game. Yeah, and Zeke wound up with sixteen carries

575
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: for one hundred and twenty seven whatever. Yep. And I

576
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: just think it was very similar as far as their

577
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 1: commitment to the run. And I think if the Cowboys

578
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 1: led twenty four to six, Zeke would have had thirty carries.

579
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 1: Zeke would have run the ball for thirty two times, Yeah, exactly.

580
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 1: He might have had when they had the lead right

581
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: after they got kind of it's kind of the same

582
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: principle with with what's talking about the Dallas defense. All right,

583
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: I think some of those numbers are hollow as far

584
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 1: as the Dallas defense. I'm I'm keeping I'm tapping the

585
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 1: brakes on how great this defense is based on how

586
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: poorly this Cowboys offense has been so far, because the

587
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: other teams have not in Carolina and Seattle have not

588
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: had to press the issue on offense. And so let's

589
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 1: let's wait and see what happened. And this offense is

590
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: clearly a handicap for the defense, not not just putting

591
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: them out there a bunch, but just the fact that

592
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: they scored no point. There's there's very little margin for error,

593
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: as Mickey said, a bust or two, and that that

594
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 1: blows the game wide open. Really because now your two

595
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 1: scores down, as Bill said, that's a that's a huge

596
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 1: lead to overcome the way this offense is playing. Also,

597
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: tell me how much time Sean Lee's gonna miss now,

598
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 1: and you know, anytime you've got recurring hamstring problems the

599
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: second time around for a month, and see what happened.

600
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 1: Laden Banderesh looked like he played pretty well in this game,

601
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:27,959
Speaker 1: But we all know what Sean does in terms from

602
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 1: communications standpoint and getting guys in the right spot and

603
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 1: all that, So I don't know if he would have

604
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: helped the safeties out. Yeah, now, all of a sudden,

605
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: you can't play without Jeff Heath on the field. Speaking

606
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 1: of safeties, how big of a difference was the guy

607
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 1: for Seattle yesterday? Uh yeah, I don't think you could

608
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: write a better script than what unfolded with Earl and

609
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 1: all the stuff around it yesterday. And Mickey. I know

610
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: what Mickey's gonna say. Well, he's just you know, he's

611
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: a safety. He caught a couple he caught a couple

612
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 1: of balls that were just right there for him. But

613
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 1: he hasn't That's the thing about him. He has a

614
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 1: knack for just being around the football and being in

615
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 1: the right spot and have Michael Gallup drop a pass right,

616
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 1: but he was there to make the play. How many

617
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 1: times have we seen the Cowboys secondary like almost be there.

618
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 1: You know, he's a heck of a player, man, you

619
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 1: gotta give it to him. I've never seen a guy

620
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: so fortunate in my life. How many times did the

621
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 1: second one get tipped before it landed in his hands? Twice?

622
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 1: It's a heck of a play by Bobby Wagner and

623
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: even make it a contested and then Jarwin tries to

624
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: bat it down like he's playing. I think he was

625
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: actually trying to bring it in. At first, I thought

626
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 1: it down to keep it from catch it. But on

627
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 1: further review, I think he was flailing at it trying

628
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: to bring it in. And you have to put yourself

629
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 1: in position to make those plays. And that's where this

630
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 1: guy instinctually is one of the best to ever play,

631
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 1: because he knows exactly where he needs to be. It

632
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 1: might not always, uh you know, with him. Uh, he

633
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: is a difference maker. And I'm sorry, Mickey, I'll disagree

634
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 1: with you all day. Oh. I think he's a good player,

635
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 1: but it wasn't he was so great yesterday. He's safety

636
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 1: can make a difference in a football game, and a

637
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 1: safety yesterday made a difference in a football game. The

638
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 1: Cowboys safety's made a difference too. They did. They cost

639
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 1: him to lose. They are asking for it. Man. That

640
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 1: Bowl though, by Thomas, come on, yeah, that was a

641
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 1: well spent fifteen exactly much better than Randy Gregory's. All right,

642
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: and we're gonna put this to bed after today because now,

643
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 1: I mean Seattle's one and two Cowboys are one in two.

644
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 1: I mean by Seattle, Thomas, he's gonna not practice for

645
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: three days a week, so I just get ready for that.

646
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 1: As long as long as he's in Seattle, he's not

647
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 1: going to practice on Wednesday and Thursday and maybe in Friday.

648
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,399
Speaker 1: Did you see his comments after the game basically said yeah,

649
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:02,040
Speaker 1: basically said, I'm protecting myself. I'm protecting my own investment

650
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,800
Speaker 1: and if they won't do it, I will. So is

651
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: it our understanding that at the draft a second round

652
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,399
Speaker 1: pick could have got him fifty? Yes, number fifty. Yeah,

653
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: and Dallas came back with a good offer for a

654
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: second round pick, and just recently here before Earl decided

655
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,320
Speaker 1: to report back. The problem you're running into now is

656
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: John Snyder believes that. And he made an end season

657
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,399
Speaker 1: trade for Dwayne Brown the tackle and it was after

658
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,319
Speaker 1: they played Houston, and exactly right, and it was John

659
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 1: gave up a player, and he gave up a two

660
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,399
Speaker 1: in this draft, this coming up draft and a five

661
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 1: last year's draft. Yeah, and he thinks that Dwayne Brown.

662
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 1: It thinks that Earl Thomas is a better player than

663
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,959
Speaker 1: Dayne Brown. I would agree with that. If that's the case,

664
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:48,880
Speaker 1: nobody's going to give him anything for this unless he

665
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,360
Speaker 1: unless he wants to get unless. And the point is,

666
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 1: if you wanted to get Earl Thomas, you have time

667
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: to get him. Was the draft night when you could

668
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 1: get him for a second, and would you would you

669
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 1: have had had time then to negotiate a long term

670
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 1: deal Draft night? Draft night? Oh yeah yeah? On the

671
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 1: clock seat. This is this is where to me, this

672
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 1: is where if you have a player that wants to

673
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 1: be there, he's not gonna hold you up. I just don't.

674
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,840
Speaker 1: He'll hold you up if it's somewhere. If John Snyder

675
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 1: trades him, to say, he trades him to Tampa or

676
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 1: Atlanta or one of these other places, He's gonna hold

677
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 1: you He's gonna hold he's gonna hold you up. He's

678
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,319
Speaker 1: gonna hold you up. But the fact that he has

679
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 1: been adamant that he wants to be here and John

680
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 1: Snyder doesn't owe him anything. John can take the best

681
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 1: offer he gets from anybody. He can also be very stubborn.

682
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 1: So I guess I had people in Green Bay asked me,

683
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 1: They go, you usually offer two for this guy? All right.

684
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 1: So so my question as it relates to yesterday, and

685
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:56,360
Speaker 1: I'm dropping this after after this segment, okay, because I

686
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: think it's all a moot point. Now, if Earl Thomas

687
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 1: is playing for Dallas yesterday instead of for Seattle, how

688
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 1: does that change the game. Well, he doesn't get two

689
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 1: interceptions for Seattle, and maybe maybe his back up there

690
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 1: doesn't make those plays. I think to me, this is

691
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,400
Speaker 1: I think this is where the game changes. Because we

692
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 1: all had confidence. Okay, I shouldn't say we all. I

693
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 1: had confidence into Dallas safeties. I felt like that Heath

694
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: and Frasier deserve my respect. They after two weeks, they

695
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 1: deserve my respect. Does Earl Thomas make a difference when

696
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 1: you know, is he back there and all of a

697
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,560
Speaker 1: sudden he sees a route develop on the outside or

698
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: he knows the down in distance and he says, oh,

699
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,959
Speaker 1: this is the way they're gonna go. Maybe he maybe

700
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 1: he makes a play on that back end over there

701
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 1: instead of them trying to disguise coverages, and all of

702
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,720
Speaker 1: a sudden, you know, you get Frasier caught up short

703
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,319
Speaker 1: fifty two yard play. Yeah yeah, yeah, And maybe if

704
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 1: he's on the field, you know, Schottenheimer's whole strategy changes

705
00:37:58,040 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 1: if they've got a veteran safety, if you have a

706
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 1: guy that has an understanding of how it goes back

707
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 1: to positioning, how do you position yourself in order to

708
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 1: make plays? He did in a Week one against Denver.

709
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 1: They run a vertical route up the seam, and what

710
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: does he do. He reads it all the way, cuts

711
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: in front of it, gets an interception. That's what this

712
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 1: guy does. That's the type of player he is. I

713
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,320
Speaker 1: don't know how you not want a guy like that,

714
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 1: but that's the way it goes, all right, We continue

00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 1: work and so she texted me on Friday and said, Dad,

764
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,919
Speaker 1: you realize you've been using jack Jack Black for two years? Don't?

765
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:12,879
Speaker 1: Said yeah, I figured that out about two weeks ago.

766
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:16,759
Speaker 1: And then I said, so what podcast are you on?

767
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,719
Speaker 1: They're playing Seattle this way all I'm back on Carolina. Yeah,

768
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 1: And She's I'm like, hey, that's a committed daughter. Though

769
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 1: she's catching up on what you're doing killing they're killing

770
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 1: live radio. Right, that's right, it's exactly right. Listen to

771
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 1: podcast while they're driving in the car. That's what she

772
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,120
Speaker 1: does what I do. So two weeks from actually I've

773
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:41,839
Speaker 1: started wow listening to like interviews. Yeah, I need more

774
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 1: than a twenty minute self help. I'll let you borrow

775
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 1: some of my tapes meditation. What do you management I

776
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:56,520
Speaker 1: made if I miss an interview or something, and I

777
00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 1: don't have to waste time with what kind of interviews? Well,

778
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: like right Marinelli? Or oh okay, so Garrett Dak Prescott

779
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 1: or speaking of Brod Marinelli. I went to a youth

780
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:12,319
Speaker 1: football game for the first time in forever. In fact,

781
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,359
Speaker 1: I don't know since I played youth football. I don't

782
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 1: think I've ever been to a youth football game. Because

783
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 1: I have friends who have kids who are playing youth

784
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 1: youth and this was these were he's a third grader.

785
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,480
Speaker 1: So I took him to the game. And because they

786
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,399
Speaker 1: they were all the parents had to They've got four kids,

787
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,719
Speaker 1: and so they're running their kids all these games and

788
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 1: they needed help. I said, I'll take him to his game. Whatever.

789
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,800
Speaker 1: So it was in the rain. I mean, this is

790
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 1: in south Lake. Okay, this is how a huge football

791
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 1: is in south Lake. They got Dragon youth football program.

792
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 1: It's a pouring down rain and they're playing football out there.

793
00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 1: They got artificial turf fields, you know, and so they

794
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,760
Speaker 1: got umbrellas out and everything. But speaking to Rod Marinelli,

795
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,720
Speaker 1: I get out there and the coach he looked exactly

796
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:05,239
Speaker 1: like Rod Barrinelli and he get the one I mean

797
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:12,800
Speaker 1: tonight it was minus any profanity. Yeah, And the parents

798
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:14,400
Speaker 1: said they love the guy. Yeah, I mean he's just

799
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 1: a great coach. But you met your Rod Marrinelli, I said, anyway,

800
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,400
Speaker 1: So that was my part of my way. I loved it.

801
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,360
Speaker 1: It was so it was it could be a great

802
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,759
Speaker 1: reality TV show. They got cheerleaders out there, you know,

803
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,880
Speaker 1: just the parents. You don't have Friday night tykes. Ye

804
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 1: think there is something like that day and night. Ty Yeah.

805
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,879
Speaker 1: But that's that looks that looks awful the way that things.

806
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 1: Did you have an umbrella? Yeah? I had an umbrella. Yeah, yeah,

807
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 1: they do. They sack the quarterback, oh yeah yeah, and

808
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:44,759
Speaker 1: they don't My kid that I brought to the game,

809
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 1: he was a stud. Where's number four? They finally put

810
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 1: him in at quarterback, and he ran all over the opponent.

811
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 1: Sometimes coaching is not very good at that little too.

812
00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 1: I hope they didn't fall on the darn quarterback. All right,

813
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 1: let's go to Matt in Oklahoma. Next up, I'm talking Cowboys. Hey, guys,

814
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 1: lifetime Cowboys fan here. I got a couple of points

815
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:13,399
Speaker 1: I wanted to introduct there, and if you guys could

816
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: talk on a little bit. First, one is Scotland Hand.

817
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,239
Speaker 1: Not a lot to say about him. I haven't been

818
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 1: a big fan of his. I haven't. He hasn't done

819
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,840
Speaker 1: well since Romo left the Cowboys. I don't think, you know.

820
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,880
Speaker 1: I think that was the biggest reason for Dak's success

821
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 1: in that first year was because Romo was there on

822
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,440
Speaker 1: the sideline. So I don't have much use for him.

823
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:38,359
Speaker 1: I think, you know, my mentality is produce or we'll

824
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,720
Speaker 1: get somebody else at will. I'm just afraid the Cowboys

825
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:42,800
Speaker 1: are gonna stick with him, which brings me to the

826
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,879
Speaker 1: next point, which would be that Crescott. You know, I've

827
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,800
Speaker 1: watched the Cowboys stick with guys longer than they should have,

828
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: things like and you know, I'm just not seeing it

829
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 1: from Dak Prescott. I don't think he's the guy that's

830
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 1: gonna get us to the super Bowl. I don't think

831
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:58,320
Speaker 1: he's a franchise quarterback. So far, it seems like everybody

832
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:01,320
Speaker 1: kind of like puts around him. Uh and you know,

833
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: doesn't really just say, well, he's just not that not

834
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:05,840
Speaker 1: that good. He's not the guy that's gonna do it.

835
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 1: He's not Aaron Rodgers, you know, or one of those guys.

836
00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 1: Can I ask a question, sir? So? So the question is,

837
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:15,439
Speaker 1: I mean, do you guys think that this is gonna

838
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:17,719
Speaker 1: be another one of those you know, Quincy Carter. He

839
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 1: they stuck with him too long? Are we gonna stick

840
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 1: with that too long? Are we gonna move on? So? So,

841
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:28,280
Speaker 1: Dak's success in twenty sixteen was because he had Romo

842
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,319
Speaker 1: in his ear? Is that what you're so? Well? Yeah,

843
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:33,120
Speaker 1: I think so. I think you know Romo and Lenahan's

844
00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 1: ear and and Dak's here. You're familiar with the term

845
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:43,040
Speaker 1: urban legend. Well, you know, yeah, we're just we're just

846
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 1: trying to educate, man, That's all we're trying to do.

847
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,400
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody light foots around Dak Prescott. No,

848
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:50,879
Speaker 1: I think when I think, you know, if you watch

849
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 1: what I'm going to write today. I mean, when he

850
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 1: makes good plays, I write about that. When he makes

851
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:58,360
Speaker 1: poor plays, I write about that. I think Mickey Spagnola

852
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 1: is the same way Rob Phillips Build Jones does a

853
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 1: nightly sports broadcasting station here in a major market television market.

854
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:09,160
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody lightfoots around anybody as far as

855
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:11,839
Speaker 1: sticking with him. You know. Yeah, I think they'll stick

856
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 1: with him. I think they'll stick with the coaching staff.

857
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:15,920
Speaker 1: At the end of the day, they're going to add

858
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 1: all these up, and if it's good enough for the

859
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 1: general manager, the owner, then he'll say, Okay, we're gonna

860
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:21,759
Speaker 1: move on. We'll be fine. This is what we'll do.

861
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 1: Let's redraft this thing, let's see what we have to do,

862
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,719
Speaker 1: let's go out and get some free agents whatever. But

863
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,280
Speaker 1: if it doesn't, then I think he'll make that decision,

864
00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:33,960
Speaker 1: you know. And there's no and I take it exception

865
00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:36,480
Speaker 1: to that trying to get the word out because I

866
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 1: think that we are critical of this football team, and

867
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:42,479
Speaker 1: I think that we when it needs to be said,

868
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 1: we say it. So you know, if if Dak is

869
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,319
Speaker 1: not good enough, and I don't know how many other

870
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:52,839
Speaker 1: quarterbacks out there, guys or Aaron Rodgers or or Tom

871
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 1: Brady or Drew Brees. You know, I would, I would.

872
00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 1: I would give my career in scouting I have. I

873
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 1: was with one. I was with one like that, and

874
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 1: that was the only one. You know, and Tony Romo

875
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: was good player. But you know, let's not you know,

876
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 1: Tony Romo had nothing to do with Dak Prescott in

877
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. And yeah, and I think that again, let's

878
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 1: not let's not forget that, Let's not get the story

879
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 1: messed up here. I give Scotland a hand a lot

880
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 1: of credit that year, that first year of designing and

881
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 1: trying to figure something out around what Dak did best.

882
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 1: And the other thing was that was the best offensive

883
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 1: line in football that year. And Dak, I think had

884
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 1: a lot more time. If you go back and you

885
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:38,600
Speaker 1: watch this game, there's times where he does, there's times

886
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,960
Speaker 1: where he doesn't. And I think some of the pressure

887
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:44,000
Speaker 1: that he faces affects the way sometimes he's throwing the

888
00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,480
Speaker 1: ball and trying to complete passes when he does have time.

889
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:48,520
Speaker 1: I think they're trying, if you go back and watch

890
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:50,880
Speaker 1: this game, they try to spread him out, but they

891
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:52,360
Speaker 1: were also making an effort to try to get the

892
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:55,440
Speaker 1: ball out quickly because it's not the same offensive line.

893
00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:57,640
Speaker 1: Troy Aikman spoke to it yesterday on the broadcast. It's

894
00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:59,959
Speaker 1: not the same set of receivers either out there running.

895
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,719
Speaker 1: It's just not it's a it's a completely in a

896
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:04,759
Speaker 1: lot of ways, it's a completely different offense from two

897
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:08,080
Speaker 1: years ago. Yeah, and so trying to compare those two things,

898
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:10,840
Speaker 1: it's a lot of time has passed since then, a

899
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 1: lot of faces have changed. And Zach Martin spoke to

900
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:16,000
Speaker 1: it last night. They've got to figure something out up front.

901
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 1: They said, blocking up front for the run game is

902
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 1: one one thing they're doing that, okay, but if we

903
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:22,800
Speaker 1: can't protect our quarterback, we're not going to win a

904
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:24,719
Speaker 1: lot of games. That's taking a lot of hits, Yeah,

905
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 1: a lot of hits. So what do you think the

906
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:32,800
Speaker 1: answer is? Up front? I want to I'm I'm committed

907
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:35,719
Speaker 1: to allowing that left guard to grow. You know, I

908
00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 1: am committed. I'm committed to allowing the right tackle to

909
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 1: try and develop a little bit more. Am I concerned

910
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 1: about what's going on at left tackle? Some Yeah, I am.

911
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:49,839
Speaker 1: You know, center is a backup player. Center is really

912
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:53,440
Speaker 1: a journeyman players. He's done the best he can and

913
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,319
Speaker 1: it's probably and I don't see you going out there

914
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:58,319
Speaker 1: and getting somebody better because you don't have anybody. Now,

915
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:00,759
Speaker 1: maybe this Redman kid that they picked up one day,

916
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:04,880
Speaker 1: we'll be a serviceable backup that it shouldn't use. Serviceable

917
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,840
Speaker 1: because that's what Joe Looney is right now, Joe Looney

918
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 1: and getting you killed. But Joe Looney is not Travis Frederick.

919
00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:14,759
Speaker 1: You know, we can't expect that. We can't expect him

920
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 1: to play like that. They're gonna have to figure out way.

921
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 1: It's like Rob said, maybe a little bit what we

922
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:20,520
Speaker 1: saw with Seattle, you're gonna to get the ball out

923
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,839
Speaker 1: of your hand a little bit quicker. I mean, I mean,

924
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,360
Speaker 1: but that's that's gonna put it on people on the outside.

925
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,399
Speaker 1: That's gonna put it on the outside for those guys

926
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,000
Speaker 1: to have to win a little bit more. So. We

927
00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 1: don't have a tight end that can always win too.

928
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:35,800
Speaker 1: That's another safety blanket that these guys use. We just

929
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:39,320
Speaker 1: don't have that guy. Seattle played with two backup offensive

930
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:45,440
Speaker 1: lineman three Actually yeah, all inside, well he's a backup,

931
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 1: he's not a back guard. But he was your point,

932
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:54,160
Speaker 1: you're right, No, you're right. Draft pickin yea hunt center

933
00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:57,760
Speaker 1: and Sweezy at the one guard spot. And Sweezy started

934
00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:01,200
Speaker 1: games before he started. He started the the Chicago game,

935
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 1: and he started for in Tampa and then in Seattle

936
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:06,520
Speaker 1: before he was Oh, that was a scary site when

937
00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:09,640
Speaker 1: I saw Cameron Fleming had left tackle for a grief

938
00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 1: a milen of time. Yeah, And Dak didn't assign blame.

939
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:15,279
Speaker 1: After the game, he said, look, when when I go

940
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,720
Speaker 1: back and watch, I gotta see is it me Sometimes

941
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:20,759
Speaker 1: is the protection? And I thought there was one sack

942
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:22,080
Speaker 1: he took where he just needed to get rid of

943
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 1: the ball and he held he held it a tick

944
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:27,439
Speaker 1: long and he took the sack. So again it's there's

945
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:29,359
Speaker 1: a lot of different things that go into this. When

946
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:31,680
Speaker 1: you struggled this much and putting up thirteen points a game.

947
00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:34,279
Speaker 1: When Zack Martin gets knocked back on a play, and

948
00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:37,480
Speaker 1: then Prescott feels that white jersey in his lap and

949
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 1: then he tries to duck it and go forward, and

950
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:42,600
Speaker 1: now he's trying to throw the ball to Beasley coming across,

951
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,880
Speaker 1: but he can't get his feet set. You know. Usually,

952
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:48,440
Speaker 1: I mean nine times that attend. Zack Martin's got that

953
00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:50,839
Speaker 1: block and then boom, Now you got to step up

954
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:52,640
Speaker 1: in a throw yep. You know this is what this

955
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 1: team is right now there there there every play you

956
00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,600
Speaker 1: could go, well where's okay, who made that mistake? Who

957
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 1: made that mistake? Well okay, oh that was Zach Morton?

958
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:06,320
Speaker 1: Oh okay, you know, I mean even the guy Ezekiel,

959
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:08,839
Speaker 1: it's stepping out of bounce. We talked about that. When

960
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:12,320
Speaker 1: your best players are making mistakes, you're not going to

961
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 1: have much success. And that's where they're all right now.

962
00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 1: And this includes the OC. You know he's got to

963
00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:21,040
Speaker 1: do a better job too. But you know he can

964
00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:23,759
Speaker 1: call plays and they don't finish the plays. You know,

965
00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:25,799
Speaker 1: then there's not much I mean, it's it's I call

966
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:27,919
Speaker 1: it low hanging fruit. You can blame him all you want,

967
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:30,759
Speaker 1: but you know, there's the general manager has to look

968
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:32,800
Speaker 1: at the play calling. He has to look at the players,

969
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:35,640
Speaker 1: and that's on him too. The players are on him too.

970
00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:39,880
Speaker 1: I just wonder if people understand the quarterback hits that,

971
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 1: because that means he's getting hit. He's getting hit either

972
00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 1: right before he throws the ball and he eludes it,

973
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:52,279
Speaker 1: or it's right as he's throwing the ball. That's what

974
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 1: a quarterback is stepping up. So when you can't step up,

975
00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:57,960
Speaker 1: it's hard to be accurate. It's hard to get the

976
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:01,200
Speaker 1: ball down the field. Don't have time to get the

977
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,160
Speaker 1: ball down the field. Zach spoke yesterday we got Zack

978
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,400
Speaker 1: was the only one that came forward. He said, if

979
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,759
Speaker 1: we don't do a better job protecting number four, we

980
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 1: can't have a good offer and letting routes develop. And yeah,

981
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:17,479
Speaker 1: and letting routes develop. See, that's another thing I'm getting

982
00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 1: a little tired of, is Dak Prescott standing up there

983
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 1: taking all the shots and quarterbacks. Quarterbacks have to do that.

984
00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 1: But he but you know what they ought to treat

985
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,040
Speaker 1: He ought to be on the injury port every week

986
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:34,120
Speaker 1: for stab wounds that he has to deal with because

987
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:36,279
Speaker 1: he and hey, he's up there saying, hey, I've got

988
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 1: to get better. I've got Yeah, he knows that he

989
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,879
Speaker 1: knows what he knows what he is. We know his limitations,

990
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 1: what he is, but we've also seen him play great. Right,

991
00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:48,760
Speaker 1: But you're everybody's right here. They better damn we'll figure

992
00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:51,759
Speaker 1: something out. You know, you cannot go into these games

993
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:54,680
Speaker 1: and Mickey's right. You go back and watch eight games

994
00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,839
Speaker 1: before the Kansas, you know, up until the Atlanta game.

995
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 1: Maybe something psychologically is a affected him the way he's playing.

996
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,160
Speaker 1: You know, maybe all those hits are now starting to

997
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:07,760
Speaker 1: add up a little bit more. Maybe he's not trusting

998
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,719
Speaker 1: what he's seeing. You know, guys are open, but he's

999
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:12,840
Speaker 1: not going to make that throw because all of a

1000
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:15,480
Speaker 1: sudden he throws a ball. You know how many interceptions

1001
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 1: this guy had now where he throws a ball and

1002
00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,120
Speaker 1: it clangs off somebody's hands, it ends up in somebody

1003
00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,360
Speaker 1: else's hand, and Mickey's talked about it. This is how

1004
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:25,439
Speaker 1: could that psychologically help anybud. It's an entirely new group

1005
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:27,880
Speaker 1: almost that he's dealing with. He's got a couple receivers

1006
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:31,840
Speaker 1: from last year and a tight end who got minimal snaps,

1007
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 1: and it's other than that, it's an entirely different group

1008
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 1: and they're trying to grow. Like you said, this is

1009
00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:41,040
Speaker 1: the group they selected said, you know what, we don't

1010
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:44,359
Speaker 1: need to have a number one receiver. We don't need

1011
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:47,480
Speaker 1: to have a big time tight end. If you want

1012
00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:50,400
Speaker 1: to point the finger, you could point. You could circle

1013
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 1: everybody involved here. You know, that everybody needs to wake

1014
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:56,360
Speaker 1: up in the morning when they're driving to work. If

1015
00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 1: they're listening to me bitching about how they're playing, you know,

1016
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:03,719
Speaker 1: maybe you know, maybe that's right, Maybe that maybe you

1017
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 1: need to be a little bit better with your players selection.

1018
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:08,640
Speaker 1: Maybe you need to be better with your coaching. Maybe

1019
00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:11,920
Speaker 1: you need to be better with your offensive play calling.

1020
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:14,640
Speaker 1: Maybe you need to be better at playing at quarterback

1021
00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:17,880
Speaker 1: or blocking it right guard, or not getting caught in

1022
00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 1: looking inside of the safety. Maybe you need to be

1023
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:23,319
Speaker 1: a little bit better doing that. That's why we're sitting

1024
00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 1: here having bitch fest right now because of things that

1025
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:29,840
Speaker 1: are going on. They're just not good enough. And it's

1026
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:34,480
Speaker 1: everybody's hand in this one. Well, we've got all week

1027
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,560
Speaker 1: to talk about this, you know. I do want to

1028
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,960
Speaker 1: mention this because there's breaking news this morning. A former

1029
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,439
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboy, a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame,

1030
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:47,120
Speaker 1: passed away this morning. Tommy McDonald. Tommy McDonald was with

1031
00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,840
Speaker 1: the Cowboys in nineteen sixty four, remember the College Football

1032
00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:53,759
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame as well, Oklahoma Oklahoma. In fact, in

1033
00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 1: at Oklahoma, he was part of that forty seven game

1034
00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:59,240
Speaker 1: win strate. He did not lose a game in college,

1035
00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:02,160
Speaker 1: playing for Bud Wilkinson in Oklahoma. He was drafted by

1036
00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:04,719
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles, played with the Eagles for six and

1037
00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:09,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure, I'm sure he is. And U came to

1038
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:13,560
Speaker 1: the Cowboys in nineteen sixty four, played one year with

1039
00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and then was traded for Danny Villeneuave a

1040
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:20,360
Speaker 1: place kicker after Bob Hayes became a Cowboy in nineteen

1041
00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 1: sixty five. So Bob Hayes basically replaced a Pro Football

1042
00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:27,080
Speaker 1: Hall one Pro Football Hall of Famer replaced another one

1043
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:31,000
Speaker 1: in this day and age exactly. And uh. And the

1044
00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 1: other thing about Tommy McDonald is he was the last

1045
00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:39,560
Speaker 1: non kicker not to wear a face mat yea. So

1046
00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:42,560
Speaker 1: Rogers is another one passed away at age eighty four

1047
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:48,160
Speaker 1: this morning. Yeah, so condolences to the McDonald family. Quite

1048
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:51,359
Speaker 1: a character too, and it may have been one reason

1049
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:52,960
Speaker 1: why he was only here for a year. I'm not

1050
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:55,960
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if the Tommy McDonald character meshed real

1051
00:55:56,000 --> 00:56:00,719
Speaker 1: well with coach Landry those I no, they had a

1052
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:03,239
Speaker 1: lot of characters on this and that's true. That's the

1053
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:06,000
Speaker 1: sixties and the seventies. By the way, I don't know

1054
00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:08,000
Speaker 1: how Tom put up with it, tell you the truth.

1055
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 1: That's probably why he lost all his hair. Yep, that's right.

1056
00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:16,120
Speaker 1: I mean, think about it. It's time you surprised that

1057
00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 1: last night before I know, we got a couple minutes.

1058
00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:21,120
Speaker 1: You're surprised that New England went in there and took

1059
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,160
Speaker 1: an l Detroit. Sure it was our desperate team theory

1060
00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,319
Speaker 1: again kind of working there. How about the Giants going down,

1061
00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I know the Husto, Yeah two, one of

1062
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:32,600
