0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 1>I understand, except for three hours on Sunday afternoon. We're

<v Speaker 1>How was your weekend? Three hours and three minutes? Is

0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:11.160
<v Speaker 1>that what it was? Yes? For those who were counting

0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:14.520
<v Speaker 1>three hours and three minutes of misery and now with

0:01:14.680 --> 0:01:16.920
<v Speaker 1>a one and two record, the Cowboys head home, get

0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:20.400
<v Speaker 1>back to work and try to figure out what went wrong.

0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:22.119
<v Speaker 1>And that's what we will do for the next hour.

0:01:22.200 --> 0:01:24.440
<v Speaker 1>We invite your phone calls as well. Eight eight eight

0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:28.640
<v Speaker 1>eight five five two two nine seven. Rob, you made

0:01:28.640 --> 0:01:31.280
<v Speaker 1>the trip to Seattle. You have a good weekend. I

0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:34.640
<v Speaker 1>mean the CITC Northwest. It's beautiful up there. It's great.

0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:37.319
<v Speaker 1>Took in a college football game. Oh you went to

0:01:37.319 --> 0:01:40.080
<v Speaker 1>the Washington Arizona Show. Yeah, enjoyed that. That was great.

0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:44.720
<v Speaker 1>Love it up there. Those three hours. Not good. Not good.

0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:48.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean some good things, but continuations of problems that

0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:51.160
<v Speaker 1>we saw in Week one that are really hurting this team,

0:01:51.240 --> 0:01:54.080
<v Speaker 1>especially offensively. And Brian brought us was holding down the

0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:57.840
<v Speaker 1>fort here at the Star and you enjoyed his fine

0:01:57.880 --> 0:02:01.800
<v Speaker 1>work pre and post game. And now we hear from

0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Brian brought us his first take on what happened. Now.

0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:06.640
<v Speaker 1>I just think there's, like Rob said, there's a lot

0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:09.760
<v Speaker 1>of the same things that happened to this team. I've

0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:13.720
<v Speaker 1>never seen an offense that does more to get in

0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:19.160
<v Speaker 1>its own way as far as they cannot overcome bad

0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:22.720
<v Speaker 1>things that happened to them, you know. And it's whether

0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:27.240
<v Speaker 1>it's a down and distant situation, it's an awareness situation,

0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:30.640
<v Speaker 1>it's a mistake of not blocking a guy, it's a

0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:35.840
<v Speaker 1>drop pass. This offense is just not good enough to

0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:39.560
<v Speaker 1>overcome bad things that happened to them. And there's there's

0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:42.280
<v Speaker 1>teams that take sacks. There's teams that fumble, there's teams

0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:45.800
<v Speaker 1>that take that have interceptions. But when you watch this,

0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.840
<v Speaker 1>it's not just the play calling, but there's so many

0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:51.960
<v Speaker 1>things involved when you watch this team and the problems

0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:55.200
<v Speaker 1>that they have. You know, Mickey talks about the protection

0:02:55.919 --> 0:02:58.760
<v Speaker 1>that's a problem, the quarterback not seeing the field, the

0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:03.160
<v Speaker 1>receivers not catching the ball. There's just so many things

0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:06.280
<v Speaker 1>that when they do get a little bit of momentum,

0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:10.960
<v Speaker 1>then something happens to them. They just the negative plays

0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:15.359
<v Speaker 1>are just are too much for this offense to even

0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:19.239
<v Speaker 1>overcome their challenged to move the football because of mistakes

0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:22.360
<v Speaker 1>that they make. And because they're challenged to move the football,

0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:25.760
<v Speaker 1>it's difficult to overcome mental mistakes that occur. Yeah. Well,

0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:28.880
<v Speaker 1>and they had far too many of those. Uh you know,

0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:33.160
<v Speaker 1>Brian mentioned it. You have three or four drop passes, Yeah,

0:03:33.200 --> 0:03:37.320
<v Speaker 1>two of them end up being intercepted. You run the

0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:40.480
<v Speaker 1>ball into the red zone, and then you fumble. The

0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:44.760
<v Speaker 1>longest play of the day. You throw a touchdown pass.

0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:50.040
<v Speaker 1>But for some reason, the running back didn't see the

0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:54.000
<v Speaker 1>four foot wide white stripe at the end on the sideline.

0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 1>It stepped out of pounds Previously, it's it's it's just

0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:00.920
<v Speaker 1>hard to keep overcoming those things. And then you get

0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:04.240
<v Speaker 1>yourself in situations where Seattle all they gotta do is

0:04:04.280 --> 0:04:07.240
<v Speaker 1>pin their ears back and come at you. You get

0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:10.080
<v Speaker 1>a team that only had three sacks in two games,

0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:14.480
<v Speaker 1>get five five and hit your quarterback ten times. So

0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:17.600
<v Speaker 1>if we added up in the two losses, that's eleven

0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:21.280
<v Speaker 1>sacks and twenty quarterback hits. It's hard to play football

0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 1>that way, and you can't and you know, don't sit

0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:29.200
<v Speaker 1>there and just say, well, Joe Looney's playing center, or

0:04:29.279 --> 0:04:32.120
<v Speaker 1>Connor Williams is the left guard, he's a rookie. It

0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:35.400
<v Speaker 1>was across the board, yeah, across the whole five. Frank

0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Clark had himself a day. They moved Frank Clark around yesterday,

0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:41.880
<v Speaker 1>which was really smart on their part because they felt

0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:44.640
<v Speaker 1>like that, really that Lyle Collins is not good enough

0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:47.839
<v Speaker 1>as a right tackle to handle him one on one.

0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 1>So the smart thing is take him away from a

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:52.480
<v Speaker 1>guy you feel like, well, he's not gonna win every

0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:55.919
<v Speaker 1>battle against Tyrant Smith, but move him over to the

0:04:55.920 --> 0:04:58.719
<v Speaker 1>other side, and you know he made plays over there.

0:04:58.800 --> 0:05:01.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's what that you know, It was very

0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:03.800
<v Speaker 1>very clear that they had a plan of how they

0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:08.599
<v Speaker 1>wanted to attack the Cowboys and offensively for the Seattle Seahawks,

0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:11.279
<v Speaker 1>their plan was very clear. They were comfortable running the

0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:14.440
<v Speaker 1>ball for three yards to carry because they saw how

0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:17.880
<v Speaker 1>an FPP the Dallas offense was right. The Dallas offense

0:05:18.000 --> 0:05:21.400
<v Speaker 1>never forced Seattle to change their game plan. One team

0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:25.720
<v Speaker 1>was desperate and committed. The other team was just desperate

0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:29.160
<v Speaker 1>and confused. And that's why that penalty at the end

0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:32.000
<v Speaker 1>of the first half was so critical in this game.

0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:35.279
<v Speaker 1>When when you get behind two scores against a team

0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:38.839
<v Speaker 1>that realizes that it can just run the football because

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.720
<v Speaker 1>it's not being pressed by the other team's offense. It

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:43.800
<v Speaker 1>was almost like they were running the ball to eat

0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:49.120
<v Speaker 1>clock because they certainly knew said Carolina did in the

0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:51.919
<v Speaker 1>first week of the season. When there's big there was

0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:54.680
<v Speaker 1>no reason for them to get out of any of

0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:57.640
<v Speaker 1>their mode. I mean it was almost like, uh, you know,

0:05:57.680 --> 0:05:59.560
<v Speaker 1>if you look at the numbers of the game, and

0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:02.680
<v Speaker 1>again I don't always do this this way, but if

0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.479
<v Speaker 1>a quarterback is sixteen to twenty six for one ninety two,

0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:08.640
<v Speaker 1>two touchdowns, no interceptions and they wins the game, that's

0:06:08.720 --> 0:06:11.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of Dak Prescott like in twenty sixteen, and one

0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:13.600
<v Speaker 1>of one of them was a huge, one huge play

0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:15.839
<v Speaker 1>fifty two yards for a touch exactly. You take that

0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:17.880
<v Speaker 1>away and it's yeah, he's not on the far side

0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:20.120
<v Speaker 1>on the flip side. The losing quarterback was nineteen to

0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 1>thirty four for one sixty eight, one touchdown and two interceptions.

0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:26.279
<v Speaker 1>Three turnovers were huge in this game. Mickey talked about

0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:29.360
<v Speaker 1>it is you have the you have the Earl Thomas, uh,

0:06:29.400 --> 0:06:31.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, first one off the ground, basically great job

0:06:31.960 --> 0:06:34.320
<v Speaker 1>of him being in position. Michael Gallup has got to

0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:36.279
<v Speaker 1>catch that foot to see that. That drive, to me

0:06:36.360 --> 0:06:38.159
<v Speaker 1>is symptomatic of the whole thing we talked about. You

0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:41.039
<v Speaker 1>people are gonna question the play calling. Okay, here's a drive.

0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:43.360
<v Speaker 1>Second drive of the game. They had a good design.

0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:47.480
<v Speaker 1>On first down, they faker reverse the Tavon handoff to

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Zeke seven yards. Good position. Then they go into round

0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:53.039
<v Speaker 1>a Tavon. Okay, they're trying to spread things out. Yeah,

0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:55.880
<v Speaker 1>some time things open up things inside. Yeah, Gallup has

0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:57.880
<v Speaker 1>to make that catch on first and ten and it

0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:01.400
<v Speaker 1>and hey, Earl Thomas teriffic awareness to be able to

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:04.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, scoop that off. His free actionary player amazing.

0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:07.360
<v Speaker 1>But see, yeah, you're right, Rob, but you to your point.

0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:09.320
<v Speaker 1>It's it was a lot of different things. You know.

0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:12.680
<v Speaker 1>It was drops, it was the Mickey's right, the protection.

0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:16.000
<v Speaker 1>It's not the same offensive line that we saw, you know,

0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:19.480
<v Speaker 1>and it's not just the offensive lineman. The tight ends.

0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:22.160
<v Speaker 1>Zeke did it again. He goes to cut a guy

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.640
<v Speaker 1>and a guy jumps over him and blast her quarterback

0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.640
<v Speaker 1>stand up and hit him in the chest. How many

0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:30.280
<v Speaker 1>more times has that got to happen? It affected the

0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:32.680
<v Speaker 1>way that Dak threw the ball to the outside. They

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.880
<v Speaker 1>had Hearns open on the outside and Zeke goes low

0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:38.800
<v Speaker 1>and now the guy's up in Dak's face, and you know,

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:40.920
<v Speaker 1>if you hit him square, you have a chance. And

0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:44.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, I just go back to the quarterback has

0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:47.760
<v Speaker 1>been struggling with some of his visional some of the reds.

0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:51.400
<v Speaker 1>But what he does on the slant to on the

0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:55.880
<v Speaker 1>slant that Gallop drops, he's looking away to set to

0:07:56.120 --> 0:07:59.680
<v Speaker 1>give Gallop the chance to you know, so the safeties

0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:02.520
<v Speaker 1>will day on one side of the field. So Prescott's

0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:05.920
<v Speaker 1>doing exactly what he has to do to get Gallop open,

0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:08.800
<v Speaker 1>and he puts the ball right where Gallup needs to

0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:12.480
<v Speaker 1>catch it, and you know everybody knows the result. But

0:08:12.560 --> 0:08:18.040
<v Speaker 1>here's here's a play call. Here is a execution on

0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:22.680
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback's behalf to help you. But the Finnish is horrendous, right,

0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.880
<v Speaker 1>So okay, how are you you want to know why

0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:31.040
<v Speaker 1>this offense is not any good play call, execution, finish.

0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:34.600
<v Speaker 1>None of them seem to work for this football team

0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:38.319
<v Speaker 1>offensively right now? You know, Mickey brought it up and

0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:40.800
<v Speaker 1>Zekiel running out of balance, and Garrett says, well, he's

0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:44.120
<v Speaker 1>a very aware player. I understand. I mean he gets wide,

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:46.280
<v Speaker 1>he gets wide, he gets white, he keeps getting wide,

0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:48.200
<v Speaker 1>and then he's gonna burst to try and make the

0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:52.440
<v Speaker 1>turn up the field. But Dak is yeah, Dak is

0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:55.640
<v Speaker 1>coming to him. And now it's like and once again

0:08:55.880 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 1>what happens. Play breaks down, quarterback figures it out, athletically

0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:07.320
<v Speaker 1>gets to the outside. Okay, here we go, play call, execution, finish.

0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:10.840
<v Speaker 1>The finish is your is your running back? Who you

0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:15.120
<v Speaker 1>who you trust to win games for you? Steps out

0:09:15.160 --> 0:09:17.520
<v Speaker 1>of bounds? Is it a mistake? Yeah? Is it a

0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:20.360
<v Speaker 1>minital mistake. It's an awareness mistake, he said it. I

0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:22.720
<v Speaker 1>had terrible awareness on that play and the worst part

0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:24.640
<v Speaker 1>he didn't know where he was. Yeah, and the worst

0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:28.080
<v Speaker 1>part is it's it's it nullifies the play. Yeah, but

0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:30.280
<v Speaker 1>it's not a penalty where you get the down over.

0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:35.800
<v Speaker 1>It got to kick a field goal and you can't

0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:39.400
<v Speaker 1>be kicking field goals. And then the other problem in

0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:42.480
<v Speaker 1>what's been going on, and it goes back to what

0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:45.560
<v Speaker 1>I wrote on Friday. This defense had to continue playing

0:09:45.640 --> 0:09:48.600
<v Speaker 1>well to buy the offense time. And they have two

0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:53.800
<v Speaker 1>busted coverages which they just can't afford. And then the

0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Randy Gregory brain fart at the end of the half.

0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:03.520
<v Speaker 1>Although having watched warm ups, Janikowski would have blasted a sixty.

0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:07.840
<v Speaker 1>But this is where you also you take a chance.

0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:11.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, you're giving him fifteen yards. You're saying, okay,

0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:14.679
<v Speaker 1>you're a Hall of Fame kicker and you probably are

0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:17.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna make a seventy yard field goal or whatever. This guy,

0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:20.320
<v Speaker 1>he's you know, he's rare. He's he's like that guy

0:10:20.400 --> 0:10:23.319
<v Speaker 1>the cornerback from the Redskins that played for forty years,

0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:26.320
<v Speaker 1>you know that Green, Daryl Green. These guys that you

0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:29.000
<v Speaker 1>look at him and you go no way, and and

0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:31.960
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be But don't judge this Lake Lake strength

0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:34.520
<v Speaker 1>by his shape. But but that's what I'm saying, don't

0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:38.000
<v Speaker 1>give him fifteen yards yards because he makes that. He

0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:41.040
<v Speaker 1>makes that every single time. It was a momentum play

0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:43.000
<v Speaker 1>too for Seattle, and they get the park started by

0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:47.439
<v Speaker 1>Seattle Joey Hunt the Joey TCU hornenfrog. It was a

0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:49.200
<v Speaker 1>smart play. That was the only way they were gonna

0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:52.400
<v Speaker 1>get fifteen yards on that particular play. Bade him into

0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:55.880
<v Speaker 1>doing something and they did it. Yeah, but that just

0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:58.480
<v Speaker 1>shows you. You know, we talked about it to discipline too.

0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:00.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, we talked about this blind you're gonna have

0:11:00.840 --> 0:11:05.199
<v Speaker 1>to play. But Seattle, they played. Seattle played exactly how

0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:08.000
<v Speaker 1>they wanted to play. Yesterday they played exactly how they

0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:10.120
<v Speaker 1>want to play, and they protected the quarterback. They did

0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:12.320
<v Speaker 1>a better job of that. They'd given up a dozen

0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:15.120
<v Speaker 1>sacks and they're two lots, but there was always get two.

0:11:15.320 --> 0:11:18.440
<v Speaker 1>You gave him no reason, you you know, you didn't

0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:21.080
<v Speaker 1>put him in situations the guy went back to twenty

0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:23.040
<v Speaker 1>six times. You know, you didn't put him in a a

0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:25.319
<v Speaker 1>situation where he had to throw the ball thirty eight

0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:29.000
<v Speaker 1>forty times. You're so right, though, I mean, Carson gets

0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.160
<v Speaker 1>thirty two carries in this game for only one hundred

0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:34.800
<v Speaker 1>and two yards. But but Brian Schottenheimer did the smart thing.

0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:37.640
<v Speaker 1>He this is what you always talk about, know the

0:11:37.720 --> 0:11:42.800
<v Speaker 1>condition of your team. He knew Dallas offensively was not

0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:46.000
<v Speaker 1>going to do anything. He saw that, and so it's

0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:49.400
<v Speaker 1>real easy for for Pete Carroll to click over and

0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:53.440
<v Speaker 1>say run it here, run it, run it again, and

0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:55.840
<v Speaker 1>just keep doing that. And what happened? What did he do?

0:11:56.200 --> 0:11:59.560
<v Speaker 1>He had he had three new starters inside into the

0:11:59.559 --> 0:12:03.480
<v Speaker 1>interior offensive line, right. He not only did Schottenheimer protect

0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:07.920
<v Speaker 1>his offense, he protected his to his offensive line, he

0:12:08.080 --> 0:12:12.000
<v Speaker 1>protected his quarterback as well, especially when Dallas has the

0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:15.120
<v Speaker 1>length of the field to drive offensively. I mean, and

0:12:15.400 --> 0:12:18.319
<v Speaker 1>which is why that roughing the passer penalty on Tyrone

0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:21.080
<v Speaker 1>Crawford on the third offensive play for Seattle, which critical

0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:24.319
<v Speaker 1>in the first quarter of that game, because and now

0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:27.079
<v Speaker 1>Dallas needs to get off the field. Have to overcome

0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:29.439
<v Speaker 1>that adversity and get them off the field. But if

0:12:29.440 --> 0:12:31.840
<v Speaker 1>they're punning on that after that third down playoff, they

0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:34.360
<v Speaker 1>don't throw the flag on that, cowboys are getting the

0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:37.199
<v Speaker 1>ball at the forty their own forty yard line instead

0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:39.840
<v Speaker 1>of they wound up getting it at their own fifteen yard.

0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:41.520
<v Speaker 1>There was a time where his team could be able

0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:43.600
<v Speaker 1>to drive the example, and they don't do that anymore.

0:12:44.080 --> 0:12:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Two years ago they could do that's right. Here's another example.

0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:49.320
<v Speaker 1>First drive of the third quarter, get a holding penalty

0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:52.400
<v Speaker 1>on the return or punt return. Then Rico gets a

0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:54.360
<v Speaker 1>false start, and all of a sudden, you're at second

0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:57.480
<v Speaker 1>and fifteen at your own six. After Zeke gets stopped

0:12:57.480 --> 0:12:59.439
<v Speaker 1>for no game, Tyron gives up a sack. I mean,

0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:03.360
<v Speaker 1>it's when when an offense struggles this much, it's always

0:13:03.360 --> 0:13:05.760
<v Speaker 1>a lot of different things except that Atlanta game. Then

0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:09.679
<v Speaker 1>they have a situation where they had Rico jumped off sides. Yes,

0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:12.320
<v Speaker 1>that's the play, and they completed They completed a pass.

0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Thompson got a ten got ten yard game. Okay, so

0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:17.760
<v Speaker 1>now you're thinking if it's first and ten or second ten, Okay,

0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:19.920
<v Speaker 1>they've got the they've got the yard, they've got it.

0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:22.240
<v Speaker 1>They got a first down with the ten yard pass,

0:13:22.760 --> 0:13:25.640
<v Speaker 1>but they come up five yards short a third and five,

0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:27.079
<v Speaker 1>they have a third five. Now they're having to throw

0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:30.880
<v Speaker 1>the football and they get the sack. Like this is

0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.280
<v Speaker 1>just I wrote about that last night. This is just

0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:36.840
<v Speaker 1>typical of what this offense is right now. It can't

0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:40.600
<v Speaker 1>it can't help itself. There's no you know, the one

0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:44.400
<v Speaker 1>energy plays that it the energy plays that it has

0:13:45.040 --> 0:13:46.839
<v Speaker 1>is generally when they get the ball to number ten,

0:13:47.480 --> 0:13:51.160
<v Speaker 1>that's the one guy that's got some juice, the kind

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:53.360
<v Speaker 1>of got going they get. They get the jet sweeper

0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:56.440
<v Speaker 1>eighteen yards poom, everybody's blocking up front. I mean, he

0:13:56.679 --> 0:13:59.920
<v Speaker 1>gives you a little juice. And there's no other jew

0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:04.840
<v Speaker 1>a spark that's happening with this team offensively, And it

0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:07.000
<v Speaker 1>shows you how weird the game was. Zeke ran the

0:14:07.000 --> 0:14:10.120
<v Speaker 1>ball very well, I mean seven point nine yards a pop,

0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:13.120
<v Speaker 1>but he also just hurts you so bad in the game.

0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:15.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's the irony of it. Was he I

0:14:15.760 --> 0:14:17.440
<v Speaker 1>mean he admitted it. He thought he well, he thought

0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:19.240
<v Speaker 1>they'd cost him the game. I wouldn't go that far,

0:14:19.840 --> 0:14:22.560
<v Speaker 1>but they left maybe at least a touchdown, maybe ten

0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:24.920
<v Speaker 1>points on the board right there, with a couple of mistakes,

0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:26.600
<v Speaker 1>not to mention a third down that he might have

0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:29.240
<v Speaker 1>completed on third and nine, might have I went back.

0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:32.600
<v Speaker 1>It was there. It was It was Kendricks. Was it

0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Kendrick Kendricks, And I mean he was on the upfield hip,

0:14:35.920 --> 0:14:38.600
<v Speaker 1>and it's gonna be if you the ball's out in front,

0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:41.120
<v Speaker 1>and if he catches it, he breaks that tackle, it's

0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:44.440
<v Speaker 1>an easy first. But if he if Kendricks makes that tack,

0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:46.840
<v Speaker 1>which is probably what's gonna happen because his offense can't

0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:50.040
<v Speaker 1>get a break, you know it's gonna be four yards short.

0:14:50.360 --> 0:14:53.040
<v Speaker 1>But I'll take my chances throwing the ball to Zekiel

0:14:53.040 --> 0:14:55.920
<v Speaker 1>Elliott on the move. But what happens. He had the

0:14:56.000 --> 0:15:00.600
<v Speaker 1>crazy Tony Dorset hands and he's usually he could Yeah,

0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:04.080
<v Speaker 1>and everybody, everybody's like, get him involved in the passing game,

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:06.600
<v Speaker 1>get him involve the passing game. Okay, you're trying to

0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:09.200
<v Speaker 1>get him involved the passing game. You know you're trying.

0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:12.600
<v Speaker 1>And that happens. Now you're like, but does that mean

0:15:12.640 --> 0:15:15.720
<v Speaker 1>you stop trying to get him involved? No, But gosh,

0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:18.240
<v Speaker 1>it just makes you think, like, Okay, who else can

0:15:18.280 --> 0:15:21.000
<v Speaker 1>I throw it to? If my best players not making plays?

0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:24.960
<v Speaker 1>Who is going to make plays? Who is Jeff Swayin

0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:27.240
<v Speaker 1>went five catches, and a lot of that was, Hey,

0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:29.200
<v Speaker 1>we got to get the ball out quick. Let's get

0:15:29.200 --> 0:15:31.080
<v Speaker 1>it out first read, Let's go to sway Let's try

0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:33.400
<v Speaker 1>to get in a manageable situation here on third down

0:15:33.440 --> 0:15:35.600
<v Speaker 1>and Seattle did, which is the boy to get into

0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:38.520
<v Speaker 1>a rhythm, right? You know? You know Cole Beasley was

0:15:38.640 --> 0:15:42.440
<v Speaker 1>interesting after the game. He's talking about communication issues that

0:15:42.440 --> 0:15:45.360
<v Speaker 1>they're talking. Yeah, I mean communications as far as not

0:15:45.600 --> 0:15:48.840
<v Speaker 1>hearing on the outside or oh no, I think that

0:15:48.960 --> 0:15:53.280
<v Speaker 1>the problems that they're having offensively related to communication issue.

0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:55.560
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know. I just heard the SoundBite. I

0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:58.280
<v Speaker 1>didn't hear the full context of it. Didn't But I'm

0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:01.840
<v Speaker 1>wondering where. I wonder if he's going crowd because we

0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:06.800
<v Speaker 1>didn't mean crowd. Let everybody not on the same page.

0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:09.920
<v Speaker 1>As far as the past execution, the passing, well, that's

0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:12.160
<v Speaker 1>in a terrible indictment of what's going on then in

0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:14.400
<v Speaker 1>those meetings. If that's the case, and I don't know

0:16:15.200 --> 0:16:18.160
<v Speaker 1>if that's if that's what he means, that's a terrible indictment.

0:16:18.240 --> 0:16:20.400
<v Speaker 1>Right least they didn't try to be twelve men on

0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:27.160
<v Speaker 1>the field twice and twice twice. This again goes back

0:16:27.160 --> 0:16:29.200
<v Speaker 1>to the offense. You get a break, it's third and six,

0:16:29.240 --> 0:16:30.880
<v Speaker 1>you get twelve minut on the field. Now you're third

0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:33.440
<v Speaker 1>and one. I'll take Zeke Gillett running the ball for

0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:35.840
<v Speaker 1>third and one every time chuck for two hundred police

0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:38.520
<v Speaker 1>and they got and they got stuff. No, they don't

0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:41.440
<v Speaker 1>block Bobby Wagner. How did he not talk him? How

0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:43.760
<v Speaker 1>do you not block their best player? See, that's what

0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:46.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying. And it looked like to me that maybe

0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:48.040
<v Speaker 1>that once again, you know, and I'm not pointing to

0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:51.200
<v Speaker 1>figure here, but just looking at scheme that everybody's down

0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:53.480
<v Speaker 1>blocking but Lyle Collins and they're trying to get the

0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:56.720
<v Speaker 1>they're trying to get Jeff swam around the corner to

0:16:56.880 --> 0:17:00.440
<v Speaker 1>maybe trap or log that guy in press could have

0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:02.440
<v Speaker 1>pulled the ball and then gone forward for a yard,

0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:05.119
<v Speaker 1>you know, if he wanted to. Earl Thomas was sitting there,

0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:07.760
<v Speaker 1>but they there was some confusion on the outside between

0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Swaying and hearns what was going on over there. But

0:17:11.960 --> 0:17:14.280
<v Speaker 1>you don't block Bobby Wagner and he runs through for

0:17:14.640 --> 0:17:17.600
<v Speaker 1>no game. Okay, I thought about you in that play.

0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:21.359
<v Speaker 1>I was like, mic linebacker right, got identify him because

0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:23.840
<v Speaker 1>he was the one guy that can make the tackle

0:17:24.160 --> 0:17:27.760
<v Speaker 1>at the point of attack. And so you're saying, okay,

0:17:27.760 --> 0:17:30.119
<v Speaker 1>it's how many times the third and one handed to

0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:34.120
<v Speaker 1>Zeke first down? Should be automatic first down. How many

0:17:34.119 --> 0:17:36.680
<v Speaker 1>times now this team can't even block the damn mic

0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:39.040
<v Speaker 1>linebacker to get a first down and they catch a

0:17:39.080 --> 0:17:41.480
<v Speaker 1>break on a twelve minute on the field, right, Not

0:17:41.680 --> 0:17:46.240
<v Speaker 1>third and six, it's third and one. All right, we're

<v Speaker 1>Minicamp that week, Ricky, mister Jonesy's to see it all right?

0:23:29.880 --> 0:23:33.639
<v Speaker 1>Eight five five two two nine seven the number two

0:23:33.680 --> 0:23:36.320
<v Speaker 1>call to join us here on Talking Cowboys. How about

0:23:36.359 --> 0:23:38.760
<v Speaker 1>we start this segment off with a phone call from

0:23:39.000 --> 0:23:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Palmer in Georgia. Palmer, you're up on Talking Cowboys? All right, gentlemen,

0:23:44.680 --> 0:23:47.399
<v Speaker 1>I've got a theory on this whole quarterback thing. Okay.

0:23:47.600 --> 0:23:51.200
<v Speaker 1>Tony Romo's last year the play clock away. He always

0:23:51.200 --> 0:23:53.560
<v Speaker 1>snapped the ball with one or two seconds lap, and

0:23:53.640 --> 0:23:55.159
<v Speaker 1>there were a lot of people crying, why aren't they

0:23:55.240 --> 0:23:57.520
<v Speaker 1>running the ball, especially in the red zone. Well, I

0:23:57.600 --> 0:24:00.359
<v Speaker 1>think everyone's conclusion was that Tony was check now to

0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:03.359
<v Speaker 1>run plays into throwing plays. I think it's time to

0:24:03.440 --> 0:24:07.560
<v Speaker 1>put the handcuffs back on Dak. Dak's first year, the

0:24:07.680 --> 0:24:11.400
<v Speaker 1>ball was always snapped with ten or more second left

0:24:11.440 --> 0:24:14.400
<v Speaker 1>on the play cut he was actually running the play

0:24:14.520 --> 0:24:18.320
<v Speaker 1>that was called. I think that. I think if he

0:24:18.480 --> 0:24:22.320
<v Speaker 1>ran every play that was called yesterday, I think it

0:24:22.320 --> 0:24:24.920
<v Speaker 1>would have at least looked a little bit better. I

0:24:25.080 --> 0:24:28.120
<v Speaker 1>just think it's time to put him back in kindergarten

0:24:28.760 --> 0:24:34.840
<v Speaker 1>and just take put the handcuffs back on. That's my theory. Hell,

0:24:34.880 --> 0:24:36.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know if that would work. That's aw

0:24:36.600 --> 0:24:41.080
<v Speaker 1>you do that, Thank you Palmer. Sorry I was confused.

0:24:41.560 --> 0:24:43.719
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't want Dak to have the ability to check

0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:47.760
<v Speaker 1>to check. He feels like and if you talk to

0:24:47.840 --> 0:24:51.720
<v Speaker 1>some NFL people around the league about that the first year,

0:24:51.840 --> 0:24:55.560
<v Speaker 1>that and there's coaches that will say, it's kind of

0:24:55.640 --> 0:24:59.040
<v Speaker 1>nice to have a rookie quarterback. So because a rookie

0:24:59.119 --> 0:25:02.280
<v Speaker 1>quarterback never qu since your call. A rookie quarterback just

0:25:02.400 --> 0:25:05.040
<v Speaker 1>runs the play whatever you And there's some guys around

0:25:05.040 --> 0:25:07.879
<v Speaker 1>the league with veteran quarterbacks, you know, it's just a

0:25:07.960 --> 0:25:10.200
<v Speaker 1>really good example. But he's really good at it. Is

0:25:10.240 --> 0:25:12.960
<v Speaker 1>the guy down in New Orleans, you know, and he's

0:25:13.000 --> 0:25:15.440
<v Speaker 1>really good at getting in and out of place. But

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:17.640
<v Speaker 1>there's something too. Play callers kind of like a guy

0:25:17.720 --> 0:25:19.600
<v Speaker 1>that will say, Okay, I'm not gonna question what you're

0:25:19.600 --> 0:25:21.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna call. I mean, I'm not going to the quarterback.

0:25:22.359 --> 0:25:24.120
<v Speaker 1>It's not gonna question what I'm gonna call. I'm gonna

0:25:24.119 --> 0:25:25.439
<v Speaker 1>call this play and we're gonna see if we can

0:25:25.520 --> 0:25:28.480
<v Speaker 1>execute it. But I don't know if necessarily, if it's

0:25:28.600 --> 0:25:32.720
<v Speaker 1>Dak changing plays at the line, not be that every time.

0:25:32.760 --> 0:25:34.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so every time. But I mean he

0:25:34.640 --> 0:25:36.560
<v Speaker 1>threw out a theory and we'll need to see that.

0:25:36.880 --> 0:25:38.800
<v Speaker 1>That's it's a thought. And we did talk about that

0:25:38.880 --> 0:25:40.520
<v Speaker 1>in the press box. It's like, all right, this is

0:25:40.600 --> 0:25:43.080
<v Speaker 1>down to one second and they know exactly when the

0:25:43.080 --> 0:25:44.399
<v Speaker 1>ball is gonna be. It helps him get off this

0:25:44.600 --> 0:25:47.680
<v Speaker 1>off the ball. There is something too. I had some

0:25:47.760 --> 0:25:50.080
<v Speaker 1>people on Twitter and you guys watch the game too.

0:25:50.720 --> 0:25:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Are they tipping their snap count? Though with a touch

0:25:55.320 --> 0:25:58.960
<v Speaker 1>from Zack Martin, a head turn from Joe Looney and

0:25:59.080 --> 0:26:03.120
<v Speaker 1>then the snap or or or or guys good enough

0:26:03.560 --> 0:26:05.560
<v Speaker 1>on the defensive line to kind of go into a

0:26:05.640 --> 0:26:07.680
<v Speaker 1>game and say, Okay, when I see Joe Looney turn,

0:26:07.720 --> 0:26:11.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm going you know, I'm just asking this question, Clark.

0:26:11.080 --> 0:26:14.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm just I'm just asking today. Yeah, because he jumped

0:26:14.080 --> 0:26:16.920
<v Speaker 1>the count one time against him against Tyren Smith, not

0:26:17.040 --> 0:26:19.800
<v Speaker 1>the sack, but one time before the Tyron Smith, just

0:26:19.920 --> 0:26:22.560
<v Speaker 1>being the athlete he is, was able to get enough

0:26:22.640 --> 0:26:25.240
<v Speaker 1>of him to lyle Prescott to step up in the

0:26:25.320 --> 0:26:28.280
<v Speaker 1>pocket a little bit. But I wonder if if you

0:26:28.359 --> 0:26:31.600
<v Speaker 1>want to tell me that maybe that dat needs to

0:26:31.800 --> 0:26:35.560
<v Speaker 1>play with the snap count a little bit more. I'll

0:26:35.600 --> 0:26:38.320
<v Speaker 1>buy into that, because there's there was several times where

0:26:38.520 --> 0:26:44.160
<v Speaker 1>I saw him frantically going to the line of trying

0:26:44.200 --> 0:26:46.399
<v Speaker 1>to get and and then I looked up and it's like, well,

0:26:46.400 --> 0:26:49.200
<v Speaker 1>wait a minute, there's fourteen seconds left, right, what's the

0:26:49.320 --> 0:26:54.960
<v Speaker 1>hurry slow down? I don't but see what happens. It's

0:26:55.000 --> 0:26:57.760
<v Speaker 1>not like he's going up to the line of scrimmage

0:26:57.800 --> 0:27:00.560
<v Speaker 1>when he changes the call and he has the roller

0:27:00.640 --> 0:27:05.000
<v Speaker 1>decks of plays when they give them that play they've practiced. Okay,

0:27:05.080 --> 0:27:07.159
<v Speaker 1>if you don't like this, look, then check to this.

0:27:07.760 --> 0:27:10.800
<v Speaker 1>It's not like he's just going through his mind and going, well,

0:27:11.000 --> 0:27:14.120
<v Speaker 1>let me try this. That stuff's all pre planned. Now

0:27:14.720 --> 0:27:17.080
<v Speaker 1>he is he making the wrong decision getting out of

0:27:17.119 --> 0:27:19.520
<v Speaker 1>a run to throw the ball, or getting out of

0:27:19.560 --> 0:27:23.200
<v Speaker 1>a throw to run the ball. That's maybe what's going on,

0:27:23.600 --> 0:27:27.280
<v Speaker 1>But I don't know in that environment, I'm not checking

0:27:27.320 --> 0:27:30.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot of place. That's just me. I'm not going

0:27:30.240 --> 0:27:33.240
<v Speaker 1>in with the idea of like, Okay, I'm gonna sit

0:27:33.320 --> 0:27:37.280
<v Speaker 1>here and just go through while my tackles can't hear,

0:27:37.680 --> 0:27:40.680
<v Speaker 1>my receivers can't hear. I mean, my backs can't hear.

0:27:41.080 --> 0:27:43.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going in there with the idea of doing that.

0:27:43.720 --> 0:27:48.560
<v Speaker 1>So I understand his question. But I think to Mickey's

0:27:48.640 --> 0:27:53.240
<v Speaker 1>point is it's not every single down that you're seeing

0:27:53.359 --> 0:27:55.560
<v Speaker 1>him do this. You know, I just don't. Can I

0:27:55.640 --> 0:27:58.880
<v Speaker 1>throw out one more thing offensively? That surprised me, you guys,

0:27:58.920 --> 0:28:01.600
<v Speaker 1>surprised that the lack of his own read looks in

0:28:01.680 --> 0:28:04.320
<v Speaker 1>the game. As I went back and watched it this morning,

0:28:04.400 --> 0:28:08.200
<v Speaker 1>the first one I saw was eleven fifty three left

0:28:08.240 --> 0:28:11.120
<v Speaker 1>to go in the game. Oh, they the one where

0:28:11.160 --> 0:28:13.560
<v Speaker 1>he pulled it that one way. He had a couple

0:28:13.600 --> 0:28:16.000
<v Speaker 1>of them where they actually Zeke's one of Zeke's seven

0:28:16.119 --> 0:28:20.920
<v Speaker 1>yard runs, Yeah, was a was a was a read option. Yeah,

0:28:20.960 --> 0:28:23.159
<v Speaker 1>and he and he and he, I could said on

0:28:23.200 --> 0:28:25.080
<v Speaker 1>the third and one on the first series, he could

0:28:25.119 --> 0:28:27.320
<v Speaker 1>have pulled the ball and doe for the first down

0:28:27.359 --> 0:28:30.520
<v Speaker 1>on that one. Instead, he trusted that Zeke could come

0:28:30.600 --> 0:28:34.000
<v Speaker 1>how get past Bobby Wagner. I just didn't notice much

0:28:34.080 --> 0:28:36.720
<v Speaker 1>of it in the game compared to last No, I'm

0:28:36.800 --> 0:28:39.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm almost a half. You know. We got the film

0:28:39.360 --> 0:28:42.960
<v Speaker 1>late and I was in this morning after parent teacher conferences,

0:28:43.040 --> 0:28:47.840
<v Speaker 1>and I I've noticed, though not as prevalent so far

0:28:48.400 --> 0:28:51.680
<v Speaker 1>as what it was last week, and it was pretty effective. Now,

0:28:51.720 --> 0:28:53.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe that can they can see things like at the

0:28:53.680 --> 0:28:55.360
<v Speaker 1>line of scrimmage and say, oh, this is not a

0:28:55.400 --> 0:28:57.840
<v Speaker 1>good situation. Well enough, y'all of a sudden you have

0:28:57.920 --> 0:28:59.920
<v Speaker 1>a safety walk. And then they had the safety walk

0:29:00.040 --> 0:29:02.200
<v Speaker 1>and down. The other day they played a lot of

0:29:02.320 --> 0:29:05.320
<v Speaker 1>single safety high with Earl by himself. But they still

0:29:05.440 --> 0:29:08.480
<v Speaker 1>ran for one hundred and sixty seven yards. Did that

0:29:08.640 --> 0:29:13.080
<v Speaker 1>was not a problem averages eight yards a carry. Running

0:29:13.080 --> 0:29:16.320
<v Speaker 1>the ball wasn't the problem. Okay, I made the point earlier.

0:29:16.800 --> 0:29:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Was one coordinator committed and the other one not. And

0:29:21.440 --> 0:29:23.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to put the It sounds like I'm

0:29:23.880 --> 0:29:26.880
<v Speaker 1>trying to place the sole blame of this on Lenahan,

0:29:27.000 --> 0:29:30.040
<v Speaker 1>and I guarantee you, I'm sorry, Joe and Flower, Mountain,

0:29:30.120 --> 0:29:32.400
<v Speaker 1>Vic and Ventura. I'm not trying to offend you here

0:29:32.440 --> 0:29:36.040
<v Speaker 1>as a fan, but I don't know if you necessary

0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:38.440
<v Speaker 1>and I'm not going to defend Linahan. But I'm saying

0:29:38.520 --> 0:29:42.239
<v Speaker 1>here and I'm asking you guys, did he Were they

0:29:42.400 --> 0:29:47.160
<v Speaker 1>not as committed as say Seattle was well? And there

0:29:47.240 --> 0:29:50.200
<v Speaker 1>is there time? Should we be more committed now? If

0:29:50.240 --> 0:29:55.000
<v Speaker 1>this offensive line is not He threw He threw thirty

0:29:55.040 --> 0:30:01.160
<v Speaker 1>four passes. Yes, okay, two were in a miserably failed

0:30:01.360 --> 0:30:03.400
<v Speaker 1>two minute drill at the end of the first half.

0:30:03.640 --> 0:30:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Right ten came after they were two scores down with

0:30:09.160 --> 0:30:12.440
<v Speaker 1>five minutes left in the game. Last twelve of his

0:30:12.680 --> 0:30:17.240
<v Speaker 1>passes came in either two minute drill or desperation with

0:30:17.440 --> 0:30:21.560
<v Speaker 1>five minutes to go, when you're down twenty four thirteen.

0:30:22.000 --> 0:30:27.360
<v Speaker 1>So twelve of the thirty four attempts happened in that situation.

0:30:27.760 --> 0:30:30.840
<v Speaker 1>Otherwise you had thrown twenty two passes and you ran

0:30:30.920 --> 0:30:35.320
<v Speaker 1>it sixteen times. So those numbers get skewed because of

0:30:35.400 --> 0:30:38.560
<v Speaker 1>the situation. But he but he he had good enough

0:30:38.640 --> 0:30:40.440
<v Speaker 1>balanced in for you guys, and is that what is

0:30:40.720 --> 0:30:43.400
<v Speaker 1>is that what you're trying to just saying majure half

0:30:44.240 --> 0:30:46.480
<v Speaker 1>a third of his passes came when they were in

0:30:46.600 --> 0:30:50.480
<v Speaker 1>situations where I think I think it was very similar

0:30:50.960 --> 0:30:53.560
<v Speaker 1>both teams commitment to the run and myself. Okay, when

0:30:53.600 --> 0:30:55.800
<v Speaker 1>you look at Chris Carson, he had ten carries in

0:30:55.880 --> 0:30:58.120
<v Speaker 1>the fourth quarter after they were up twenty four or

0:30:58.160 --> 0:31:01.720
<v Speaker 1>six ten of us end of his thirty two and

0:31:01.840 --> 0:31:04.040
<v Speaker 1>so he had twenty two carries through three quarters of

0:31:04.120 --> 0:31:07.400
<v Speaker 1>the game. Yeah, and Zeke wound up with sixteen carries

0:31:07.560 --> 0:31:10.040
<v Speaker 1>for one hundred and twenty seven whatever. Yep. And I

0:31:10.160 --> 0:31:13.080
<v Speaker 1>just think it was very similar as far as their

0:31:13.080 --> 0:31:15.920
<v Speaker 1>commitment to the run. And I think if the Cowboys

0:31:16.040 --> 0:31:18.480
<v Speaker 1>led twenty four to six, Zeke would have had thirty carries.

0:31:18.600 --> 0:31:20.960
<v Speaker 1>Zeke would have run the ball for thirty two times, Yeah, exactly.

0:31:21.040 --> 0:31:23.640
<v Speaker 1>He might have had when they had the lead right

0:31:23.760 --> 0:31:25.640
<v Speaker 1>after they got kind of it's kind of the same

0:31:25.680 --> 0:31:29.840
<v Speaker 1>principle with with what's talking about the Dallas defense. All right,

0:31:29.920 --> 0:31:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I think some of those numbers are hollow as far

0:31:32.960 --> 0:31:36.440
<v Speaker 1>as the Dallas defense. I'm I'm keeping I'm tapping the

0:31:36.520 --> 0:31:40.240
<v Speaker 1>brakes on how great this defense is based on how

0:31:40.800 --> 0:31:43.640
<v Speaker 1>poorly this Cowboys offense has been so far, because the

0:31:43.720 --> 0:31:47.560
<v Speaker 1>other teams have not in Carolina and Seattle have not

0:31:47.720 --> 0:31:50.840
<v Speaker 1>had to press the issue on offense. And so let's

0:31:51.040 --> 0:31:53.200
<v Speaker 1>let's wait and see what happened. And this offense is

0:31:53.680 --> 0:31:57.360
<v Speaker 1>clearly a handicap for the defense, not not just putting

0:31:57.400 --> 0:31:59.280
<v Speaker 1>them out there a bunch, but just the fact that

0:31:59.320 --> 0:32:02.920
<v Speaker 1>they scored no point. There's there's very little margin for error,

0:32:03.080 --> 0:32:05.160
<v Speaker 1>as Mickey said, a bust or two, and that that

0:32:05.720 --> 0:32:08.080
<v Speaker 1>blows the game wide open. Really because now your two

0:32:08.160 --> 0:32:10.200
<v Speaker 1>scores down, as Bill said, that's a that's a huge

0:32:10.320 --> 0:32:13.000
<v Speaker 1>lead to overcome the way this offense is playing. Also,

0:32:13.120 --> 0:32:15.040
<v Speaker 1>tell me how much time Sean Lee's gonna miss now,

0:32:15.360 --> 0:32:18.560
<v Speaker 1>and you know, anytime you've got recurring hamstring problems the

0:32:18.600 --> 0:32:22.560
<v Speaker 1>second time around for a month, and see what happened.

0:32:22.760 --> 0:32:25.880
<v Speaker 1>Laden Banderesh looked like he played pretty well in this game,

0:32:26.240 --> 0:32:27.959
<v Speaker 1>But we all know what Sean does in terms from

0:32:28.040 --> 0:32:30.400
<v Speaker 1>communications standpoint and getting guys in the right spot and

0:32:30.440 --> 0:32:32.240
<v Speaker 1>all that, So I don't know if he would have

0:32:32.360 --> 0:32:36.760
<v Speaker 1>helped the safeties out. Yeah, now, all of a sudden,

0:32:36.800 --> 0:32:40.320
<v Speaker 1>you can't play without Jeff Heath on the field. Speaking

0:32:40.400 --> 0:32:43.720
<v Speaker 1>of safeties, how big of a difference was the guy

0:32:43.800 --> 0:32:48.560
<v Speaker 1>for Seattle yesterday? Uh yeah, I don't think you could

0:32:48.600 --> 0:32:51.880
<v Speaker 1>write a better script than what unfolded with Earl and

0:32:51.960 --> 0:32:55.000
<v Speaker 1>all the stuff around it yesterday. And Mickey. I know

0:32:55.040 --> 0:32:57.600
<v Speaker 1>what Mickey's gonna say. Well, he's just you know, he's

0:32:57.640 --> 0:33:00.280
<v Speaker 1>a safety. He caught a couple he caught a couple

0:33:00.280 --> 0:33:01.920
<v Speaker 1>of balls that were just right there for him. But

0:33:02.000 --> 0:33:04.080
<v Speaker 1>he hasn't That's the thing about him. He has a

0:33:04.160 --> 0:33:06.200
<v Speaker 1>knack for just being around the football and being in

0:33:06.280 --> 0:33:13.040
<v Speaker 1>the right spot and have Michael Gallup drop a pass right,

0:33:13.360 --> 0:33:15.080
<v Speaker 1>but he was there to make the play. How many

0:33:15.120 --> 0:33:18.120
<v Speaker 1>times have we seen the Cowboys secondary like almost be there.

0:33:18.480 --> 0:33:21.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, he's a heck of a player, man, you

0:33:21.120 --> 0:33:23.040
<v Speaker 1>gotta give it to him. I've never seen a guy

0:33:23.120 --> 0:33:26.920
<v Speaker 1>so fortunate in my life. How many times did the

0:33:26.960 --> 0:33:29.840
<v Speaker 1>second one get tipped before it landed in his hands? Twice?

0:33:30.560 --> 0:33:32.400
<v Speaker 1>It's a heck of a play by Bobby Wagner and

0:33:32.480 --> 0:33:35.120
<v Speaker 1>even make it a contested and then Jarwin tries to

0:33:35.200 --> 0:33:36.960
<v Speaker 1>bat it down like he's playing. I think he was

0:33:37.000 --> 0:33:40.560
<v Speaker 1>actually trying to bring it in. At first, I thought

0:33:41.240 --> 0:33:43.920
<v Speaker 1>it down to keep it from catch it. But on

0:33:44.960 --> 0:33:47.680
<v Speaker 1>further review, I think he was flailing at it trying

0:33:47.760 --> 0:33:51.600
<v Speaker 1>to bring it in. And you have to put yourself

0:33:51.640 --> 0:33:54.560
<v Speaker 1>in position to make those plays. And that's where this

0:33:54.680 --> 0:33:57.080
<v Speaker 1>guy instinctually is one of the best to ever play,

0:33:57.480 --> 0:34:00.440
<v Speaker 1>because he knows exactly where he needs to be. It

0:34:00.640 --> 0:34:04.960
<v Speaker 1>might not always, uh you know, with him. Uh, he

0:34:05.200 --> 0:34:08.000
<v Speaker 1>is a difference maker. And I'm sorry, Mickey, I'll disagree

0:34:08.040 --> 0:34:10.160
<v Speaker 1>with you all day. Oh. I think he's a good player,

0:34:10.360 --> 0:34:17.160
<v Speaker 1>but it wasn't he was so great yesterday. He's safety

0:34:17.200 --> 0:34:19.239
<v Speaker 1>can make a difference in a football game, and a

0:34:19.360 --> 0:34:21.719
<v Speaker 1>safety yesterday made a difference in a football game. The

0:34:21.760 --> 0:34:24.239
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys safety's made a difference too. They did. They cost

0:34:24.320 --> 0:34:27.080
<v Speaker 1>him to lose. They are asking for it. Man. That

0:34:27.280 --> 0:34:30.600
<v Speaker 1>Bowl though, by Thomas, come on, yeah, that was a

0:34:30.840 --> 0:34:37.719
<v Speaker 1>well spent fifteen exactly much better than Randy Gregory's. All right,

0:34:37.800 --> 0:34:40.960
<v Speaker 1>and we're gonna put this to bed after today because now,

0:34:41.360 --> 0:34:44.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean Seattle's one and two Cowboys are one in two.

0:34:44.320 --> 0:34:47.279
<v Speaker 1>I mean by Seattle, Thomas, he's gonna not practice for

0:34:47.400 --> 0:34:49.200
<v Speaker 1>three days a week, so I just get ready for that.

0:34:49.840 --> 0:34:52.279
<v Speaker 1>As long as long as he's in Seattle, he's not

0:34:52.320 --> 0:34:55.480
<v Speaker 1>going to practice on Wednesday and Thursday and maybe in Friday.

0:34:55.640 --> 0:34:58.399
<v Speaker 1>Did you see his comments after the game basically said yeah,

0:34:58.520 --> 0:35:02.040
<v Speaker 1>basically said, I'm protecting myself. I'm protecting my own investment

0:35:02.239 --> 0:35:05.800
<v Speaker 1>and if they won't do it, I will. So is

0:35:05.840 --> 0:35:09.000
<v Speaker 1>it our understanding that at the draft a second round

0:35:09.040 --> 0:35:12.399
<v Speaker 1>pick could have got him fifty? Yes, number fifty. Yeah,

0:35:12.440 --> 0:35:14.200
<v Speaker 1>and Dallas came back with a good offer for a

0:35:14.280 --> 0:35:17.640
<v Speaker 1>second round pick, and just recently here before Earl decided

0:35:17.680 --> 0:35:20.320
<v Speaker 1>to report back. The problem you're running into now is

0:35:20.400 --> 0:35:22.960
<v Speaker 1>John Snyder believes that. And he made an end season

0:35:23.000 --> 0:35:26.399
<v Speaker 1>trade for Dwayne Brown the tackle and it was after

0:35:26.480 --> 0:35:29.319
<v Speaker 1>they played Houston, and exactly right, and it was John

0:35:29.400 --> 0:35:32.600
<v Speaker 1>gave up a player, and he gave up a two

0:35:33.160 --> 0:35:35.399
<v Speaker 1>in this draft, this coming up draft and a five

0:35:35.600 --> 0:35:39.200
<v Speaker 1>last year's draft. Yeah, and he thinks that Dwayne Brown.

0:35:40.200 --> 0:35:42.160
<v Speaker 1>It thinks that Earl Thomas is a better player than

0:35:42.239 --> 0:35:44.959
<v Speaker 1>Dayne Brown. I would agree with that. If that's the case,

0:35:46.480 --> 0:35:48.880
<v Speaker 1>nobody's going to give him anything for this unless he

0:35:49.040 --> 0:35:51.360
<v Speaker 1>unless he wants to get unless. And the point is,

0:35:51.680 --> 0:35:54.319
<v Speaker 1>if you wanted to get Earl Thomas, you have time

0:35:54.400 --> 0:35:57.480
<v Speaker 1>to get him. Was the draft night when you could

0:35:57.520 --> 0:35:59.520
<v Speaker 1>get him for a second, and would you would you

0:35:59.640 --> 0:36:02.480
<v Speaker 1>have had had time then to negotiate a long term

0:36:02.600 --> 0:36:07.080
<v Speaker 1>deal Draft night? Draft night? Oh yeah yeah? On the

0:36:07.160 --> 0:36:10.440
<v Speaker 1>clock seat. This is this is where to me, this

0:36:10.719 --> 0:36:14.200
<v Speaker 1>is where if you have a player that wants to

0:36:14.560 --> 0:36:18.560
<v Speaker 1>be there, he's not gonna hold you up. I just don't.

0:36:18.760 --> 0:36:21.840
<v Speaker 1>He'll hold you up if it's somewhere. If John Snyder

0:36:21.920 --> 0:36:25.920
<v Speaker 1>trades him, to say, he trades him to Tampa or

0:36:26.200 --> 0:36:28.640
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta or one of these other places, He's gonna hold

0:36:28.680 --> 0:36:31.040
<v Speaker 1>you He's gonna hold he's gonna hold you up. He's

0:36:31.080 --> 0:36:33.319
<v Speaker 1>gonna hold you up. But the fact that he has

0:36:33.680 --> 0:36:36.680
<v Speaker 1>been adamant that he wants to be here and John

0:36:36.760 --> 0:36:39.759
<v Speaker 1>Snyder doesn't owe him anything. John can take the best

0:36:39.960 --> 0:36:43.120
<v Speaker 1>offer he gets from anybody. He can also be very stubborn.

0:36:43.520 --> 0:36:45.920
<v Speaker 1>So I guess I had people in Green Bay asked me,

0:36:46.040 --> 0:36:49.480
<v Speaker 1>They go, you usually offer two for this guy? All right.

0:36:49.600 --> 0:36:52.040
<v Speaker 1>So so my question as it relates to yesterday, and

0:36:52.120 --> 0:36:56.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm dropping this after after this segment, okay, because I

0:36:56.640 --> 0:36:59.480
<v Speaker 1>think it's all a moot point. Now, if Earl Thomas

0:36:59.600 --> 0:37:02.560
<v Speaker 1>is playing for Dallas yesterday instead of for Seattle, how

0:37:02.600 --> 0:37:06.160
<v Speaker 1>does that change the game. Well, he doesn't get two

0:37:06.200 --> 0:37:10.799
<v Speaker 1>interceptions for Seattle, and maybe maybe his back up there

0:37:11.000 --> 0:37:14.000
<v Speaker 1>doesn't make those plays. I think to me, this is

0:37:14.719 --> 0:37:17.400
<v Speaker 1>I think this is where the game changes. Because we

0:37:17.560 --> 0:37:20.120
<v Speaker 1>all had confidence. Okay, I shouldn't say we all. I

0:37:20.280 --> 0:37:23.880
<v Speaker 1>had confidence into Dallas safeties. I felt like that Heath

0:37:24.280 --> 0:37:28.200
<v Speaker 1>and Frasier deserve my respect. They after two weeks, they

0:37:28.280 --> 0:37:31.960
<v Speaker 1>deserve my respect. Does Earl Thomas make a difference when

0:37:32.400 --> 0:37:34.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, is he back there and all of a

0:37:34.120 --> 0:37:36.560
<v Speaker 1>sudden he sees a route develop on the outside or

0:37:36.640 --> 0:37:38.680
<v Speaker 1>he knows the down in distance and he says, oh,

0:37:38.760 --> 0:37:40.959
<v Speaker 1>this is the way they're gonna go. Maybe he maybe

0:37:41.000 --> 0:37:42.920
<v Speaker 1>he makes a play on that back end over there

0:37:43.040 --> 0:37:46.040
<v Speaker 1>instead of them trying to disguise coverages, and all of

0:37:46.040 --> 0:37:48.720
<v Speaker 1>a sudden, you know, you get Frasier caught up short

0:37:49.440 --> 0:37:52.319
<v Speaker 1>fifty two yard play. Yeah yeah, yeah, And maybe if

0:37:52.360 --> 0:37:58.000
<v Speaker 1>he's on the field, you know, Schottenheimer's whole strategy changes

0:37:58.040 --> 0:37:59.880
<v Speaker 1>if they've got a veteran safety, if you have a

0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:03.000
<v Speaker 1>guy that has an understanding of how it goes back

0:38:03.080 --> 0:38:05.719
<v Speaker 1>to positioning, how do you position yourself in order to

0:38:05.800 --> 0:38:07.960
<v Speaker 1>make plays? He did in a Week one against Denver.

0:38:08.400 --> 0:38:10.719
<v Speaker 1>They run a vertical route up the seam, and what

0:38:10.800 --> 0:38:12.600
<v Speaker 1>does he do. He reads it all the way, cuts

0:38:12.640 --> 0:38:14.600
<v Speaker 1>in front of it, gets an interception. That's what this

0:38:14.680 --> 0:38:17.320
<v Speaker 1>guy does. That's the type of player he is. I

0:38:17.360 --> 0:38:19.320
<v Speaker 1>don't know how you not want a guy like that,

0:38:19.480 --> 0:38:22.560

<v Speaker 1>about two weeks behind on these podcasts. These millennials, they

0:41:01.000 --> 0:41:03.160
<v Speaker 1>listen to podcast all the time. So I'm driving into

0:41:03.200 --> 0:41:06.680
<v Speaker 1>work and so she texted me on Friday and said, Dad,

0:41:06.719 --> 0:41:09.919
<v Speaker 1>you realize you've been using jack Jack Black for two years? Don't?

0:41:10.680 --> 0:41:12.879
<v Speaker 1>Said yeah, I figured that out about two weeks ago.

0:41:13.320 --> 0:41:16.759
<v Speaker 1>And then I said, so what podcast are you on?

0:41:16.960 --> 0:41:19.719
<v Speaker 1>They're playing Seattle this way all I'm back on Carolina. Yeah,

0:41:19.800 --> 0:41:22.440
<v Speaker 1>And She's I'm like, hey, that's a committed daughter. Though

0:41:22.520 --> 0:41:25.640
<v Speaker 1>she's catching up on what you're doing killing they're killing

0:41:25.760 --> 0:41:28.920
<v Speaker 1>live radio. Right, that's right, it's exactly right. Listen to

0:41:29.000 --> 0:41:31.920
<v Speaker 1>podcast while they're driving in the car. That's what she

0:41:32.040 --> 0:41:35.120
<v Speaker 1>does what I do. So two weeks from actually I've

0:41:35.160 --> 0:41:41.839
<v Speaker 1>started wow listening to like interviews. Yeah, I need more

0:41:41.920 --> 0:41:44.600
<v Speaker 1>than a twenty minute self help. I'll let you borrow

0:41:44.640 --> 0:41:52.440
<v Speaker 1>some of my tapes meditation. What do you management I

0:41:52.719 --> 0:41:56.520
<v Speaker 1>made if I miss an interview or something, and I

0:41:56.560 --> 0:41:59.200
<v Speaker 1>don't have to waste time with what kind of interviews? Well,

0:41:59.360 --> 0:42:04.480
<v Speaker 1>like right Marinelli? Or oh okay, so Garrett Dak Prescott

0:42:04.600 --> 0:42:08.160
<v Speaker 1>or speaking of Brod Marinelli. I went to a youth

0:42:08.320 --> 0:42:12.319
<v Speaker 1>football game for the first time in forever. In fact,

0:42:12.360 --> 0:42:15.359
<v Speaker 1>I don't know since I played youth football. I don't

0:42:15.400 --> 0:42:18.040
<v Speaker 1>think I've ever been to a youth football game. Because

0:42:18.080 --> 0:42:21.440
<v Speaker 1>I have friends who have kids who are playing youth

0:42:21.719 --> 0:42:24.960
<v Speaker 1>youth and this was these were he's a third grader.

0:42:25.160 --> 0:42:27.480
<v Speaker 1>So I took him to the game. And because they

0:42:28.880 --> 0:42:31.399
<v Speaker 1>they were all the parents had to They've got four kids,

0:42:31.440 --> 0:42:33.719
<v Speaker 1>and so they're running their kids all these games and

0:42:33.760 --> 0:42:36.360
<v Speaker 1>they needed help. I said, I'll take him to his game. Whatever.

0:42:36.800 --> 0:42:38.800
<v Speaker 1>So it was in the rain. I mean, this is

0:42:38.840 --> 0:42:41.640
<v Speaker 1>in south Lake. Okay, this is how a huge football

0:42:41.840 --> 0:42:45.520
<v Speaker 1>is in south Lake. They got Dragon youth football program.

0:42:46.080 --> 0:42:50.520
<v Speaker 1>It's a pouring down rain and they're playing football out there.

0:42:50.560 --> 0:42:53.400
<v Speaker 1>They got artificial turf fields, you know, and so they

0:42:53.480 --> 0:42:56.760
<v Speaker 1>got umbrellas out and everything. But speaking to Rod Marinelli,

0:42:56.800 --> 0:42:59.720
<v Speaker 1>I get out there and the coach he looked exactly

0:42:59.840 --> 0:43:05.239
<v Speaker 1>like Rod Barrinelli and he get the one I mean

0:43:07.160 --> 0:43:12.800
<v Speaker 1>tonight it was minus any profanity. Yeah, And the parents

0:43:12.840 --> 0:43:14.400
<v Speaker 1>said they love the guy. Yeah, I mean he's just

0:43:14.560 --> 0:43:19.000
<v Speaker 1>a great coach. But you met your Rod Marrinelli, I said, anyway,

0:43:19.200 --> 0:43:21.400
<v Speaker 1>So that was my part of my way. I loved it.

0:43:21.560 --> 0:43:24.360
<v Speaker 1>It was so it was it could be a great

0:43:24.400 --> 0:43:27.759
<v Speaker 1>reality TV show. They got cheerleaders out there, you know,

0:43:27.880 --> 0:43:30.880
<v Speaker 1>just the parents. You don't have Friday night tykes. Ye

0:43:31.040 --> 0:43:33.160
<v Speaker 1>think there is something like that day and night. Ty Yeah.

0:43:33.239 --> 0:43:35.879
<v Speaker 1>But that's that looks that looks awful the way that things.

0:43:35.960 --> 0:43:39.040
<v Speaker 1>Did you have an umbrella? Yeah? I had an umbrella. Yeah, yeah,

0:43:39.440 --> 0:43:42.920
<v Speaker 1>they do. They sack the quarterback, oh yeah yeah, and

0:43:43.000 --> 0:43:44.759
<v Speaker 1>they don't My kid that I brought to the game,

0:43:44.880 --> 0:43:48.560
<v Speaker 1>he was a stud. Where's number four? They finally put

0:43:48.640 --> 0:43:52.040
<v Speaker 1>him in at quarterback, and he ran all over the opponent.

0:43:52.160 --> 0:43:54.279
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes coaching is not very good at that little too.

0:43:56.480 --> 0:44:00.440
<v Speaker 1>I hope they didn't fall on the darn quarterback. All right,

0:44:00.520 --> 0:44:06.200
<v Speaker 1>let's go to Matt in Oklahoma. Next up, I'm talking Cowboys. Hey, guys,

0:44:06.680 --> 0:44:09.600
<v Speaker 1>lifetime Cowboys fan here. I got a couple of points

0:44:09.640 --> 0:44:13.399
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to introduct there, and if you guys could

0:44:13.440 --> 0:44:16.120
<v Speaker 1>talk on a little bit. First, one is Scotland Hand.

0:44:17.440 --> 0:44:19.239
<v Speaker 1>Not a lot to say about him. I haven't been

0:44:19.239 --> 0:44:21.520
<v Speaker 1>a big fan of his. I haven't. He hasn't done

0:44:21.600 --> 0:44:24.840
<v Speaker 1>well since Romo left the Cowboys. I don't think, you know.

0:44:24.920 --> 0:44:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I think that was the biggest reason for Dak's success

0:44:27.920 --> 0:44:30.120
<v Speaker 1>in that first year was because Romo was there on

0:44:30.160 --> 0:44:33.440
<v Speaker 1>the sideline. So I don't have much use for him.

0:44:33.920 --> 0:44:38.359
<v Speaker 1>I think, you know, my mentality is produce or we'll

0:44:38.400 --> 0:44:40.720
<v Speaker 1>get somebody else at will. I'm just afraid the Cowboys

0:44:40.719 --> 0:44:42.800
<v Speaker 1>are gonna stick with him, which brings me to the

0:44:42.880 --> 0:44:45.879
<v Speaker 1>next point, which would be that Crescott. You know, I've

0:44:45.880 --> 0:44:48.800
<v Speaker 1>watched the Cowboys stick with guys longer than they should have,

0:44:48.960 --> 0:44:51.440
<v Speaker 1>things like and you know, I'm just not seeing it

0:44:51.440 --> 0:44:53.200
<v Speaker 1>from Dak Prescott. I don't think he's the guy that's

0:44:53.239 --> 0:44:55.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna get us to the super Bowl. I don't think

0:44:55.160 --> 0:44:58.320
<v Speaker 1>he's a franchise quarterback. So far, it seems like everybody

0:44:58.360 --> 0:45:01.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of like puts around him. Uh and you know,

0:45:01.480 --> 0:45:03.680
<v Speaker 1>doesn't really just say, well, he's just not that not

0:45:03.840 --> 0:45:05.840
<v Speaker 1>that good. He's not the guy that's gonna do it.

0:45:05.920 --> 0:45:08.359
<v Speaker 1>He's not Aaron Rodgers, you know, or one of those guys.

0:45:09.120 --> 0:45:13.120
<v Speaker 1>Can I ask a question, sir? So? So the question is,

0:45:13.280 --> 0:45:15.439
<v Speaker 1>I mean, do you guys think that this is gonna

0:45:15.440 --> 0:45:17.719
<v Speaker 1>be another one of those you know, Quincy Carter. He

0:45:17.840 --> 0:45:20.040
<v Speaker 1>they stuck with him too long? Are we gonna stick

0:45:20.080 --> 0:45:24.160
<v Speaker 1>with that too long? Are we gonna move on? So? So,

0:45:24.600 --> 0:45:28.280
<v Speaker 1>Dak's success in twenty sixteen was because he had Romo

0:45:28.400 --> 0:45:30.319
<v Speaker 1>in his ear? Is that what you're so? Well? Yeah,

0:45:30.320 --> 0:45:33.120
<v Speaker 1>I think so. I think you know Romo and Lenahan's

0:45:33.160 --> 0:45:36.279
<v Speaker 1>ear and and Dak's here. You're familiar with the term

0:45:36.480 --> 0:45:43.040
<v Speaker 1>urban legend. Well, you know, yeah, we're just we're just

0:45:43.080 --> 0:45:45.160
<v Speaker 1>trying to educate, man, That's all we're trying to do.

0:45:45.480 --> 0:45:48.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't think anybody light foots around Dak Prescott. No,

0:45:48.840 --> 0:45:50.879
<v Speaker 1>I think when I think, you know, if you watch

0:45:51.080 --> 0:45:53.120
<v Speaker 1>what I'm going to write today. I mean, when he

0:45:53.280 --> 0:45:55.520
<v Speaker 1>makes good plays, I write about that. When he makes

0:45:55.560 --> 0:45:58.360
<v Speaker 1>poor plays, I write about that. I think Mickey Spagnola

0:45:58.440 --> 0:46:00.640
<v Speaker 1>is the same way Rob Phillips Build Jones does a

0:46:00.800 --> 0:46:06.080
<v Speaker 1>nightly sports broadcasting station here in a major market television market.

0:46:06.120 --> 0:46:09.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't think anybody lightfoots around anybody as far as

0:46:09.200 --> 0:46:11.839
<v Speaker 1>sticking with him. You know. Yeah, I think they'll stick

0:46:11.880 --> 0:46:14.000
<v Speaker 1>with him. I think they'll stick with the coaching staff.

0:46:14.560 --> 0:46:15.920
<v Speaker 1>At the end of the day, they're going to add

0:46:15.960 --> 0:46:17.480
<v Speaker 1>all these up, and if it's good enough for the

0:46:17.560 --> 0:46:20.000
<v Speaker 1>general manager, the owner, then he'll say, Okay, we're gonna

0:46:20.040 --> 0:46:21.759
<v Speaker 1>move on. We'll be fine. This is what we'll do.

0:46:21.880 --> 0:46:23.759
<v Speaker 1>Let's redraft this thing, let's see what we have to do,

0:46:24.120 --> 0:46:26.719
<v Speaker 1>let's go out and get some free agents whatever. But

0:46:26.880 --> 0:46:29.280
<v Speaker 1>if it doesn't, then I think he'll make that decision,

0:46:29.640 --> 0:46:33.960
<v Speaker 1>you know. And there's no and I take it exception

0:46:34.080 --> 0:46:36.480
<v Speaker 1>to that trying to get the word out because I

0:46:36.640 --> 0:46:40.080
<v Speaker 1>think that we are critical of this football team, and

0:46:40.239 --> 0:46:42.479
<v Speaker 1>I think that we when it needs to be said,

0:46:42.600 --> 0:46:46.000
<v Speaker 1>we say it. So you know, if if Dak is

0:46:46.080 --> 0:46:48.319
<v Speaker 1>not good enough, and I don't know how many other

0:46:48.440 --> 0:46:52.839
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks out there, guys or Aaron Rodgers or or Tom

0:46:52.960 --> 0:46:56.719
<v Speaker 1>Brady or Drew Brees. You know, I would, I would.

0:46:56.960 --> 0:46:59.440
<v Speaker 1>I would give my career in scouting I have. I

0:46:59.640 --> 0:47:02.279
<v Speaker 1>was with one. I was with one like that, and

0:47:02.360 --> 0:47:05.040
<v Speaker 1>that was the only one. You know, and Tony Romo

0:47:05.239 --> 0:47:08.680
<v Speaker 1>was good player. But you know, let's not you know,

0:47:08.840 --> 0:47:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Tony Romo had nothing to do with Dak Prescott in

0:47:11.560 --> 0:47:16.160
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixteen. And yeah, and I think that again, let's

0:47:16.200 --> 0:47:20.160
<v Speaker 1>not let's not forget that, Let's not get the story

0:47:20.239 --> 0:47:22.080
<v Speaker 1>messed up here. I give Scotland a hand a lot

0:47:22.120 --> 0:47:24.920
<v Speaker 1>of credit that year, that first year of designing and

0:47:25.120 --> 0:47:28.000
<v Speaker 1>trying to figure something out around what Dak did best.

0:47:28.160 --> 0:47:30.920
<v Speaker 1>And the other thing was that was the best offensive

0:47:30.960 --> 0:47:33.600
<v Speaker 1>line in football that year. And Dak, I think had

0:47:33.600 --> 0:47:35.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot more time. If you go back and you

0:47:36.040 --> 0:47:38.600
<v Speaker 1>watch this game, there's times where he does, there's times

0:47:38.600 --> 0:47:40.960
<v Speaker 1>where he doesn't. And I think some of the pressure

0:47:41.000 --> 0:47:44.000
<v Speaker 1>that he faces affects the way sometimes he's throwing the

0:47:44.040 --> 0:47:46.480
<v Speaker 1>ball and trying to complete passes when he does have time.

0:47:46.520 --> 0:47:48.520
<v Speaker 1>I think they're trying, if you go back and watch

0:47:48.600 --> 0:47:50.880
<v Speaker 1>this game, they try to spread him out, but they

0:47:50.920 --> 0:47:52.360
<v Speaker 1>were also making an effort to try to get the

0:47:52.400 --> 0:47:55.440
<v Speaker 1>ball out quickly because it's not the same offensive line.

0:47:55.520 --> 0:47:57.640
<v Speaker 1>Troy Aikman spoke to it yesterday on the broadcast. It's

0:47:57.680 --> 0:47:59.959
<v Speaker 1>not the same set of receivers either out there running.

0:48:00.239 --> 0:48:02.719
<v Speaker 1>It's just not it's a it's a completely in a

0:48:02.760 --> 0:48:04.759
<v Speaker 1>lot of ways, it's a completely different offense from two

0:48:04.840 --> 0:48:08.080
<v Speaker 1>years ago. Yeah, and so trying to compare those two things,

0:48:09.040 --> 0:48:10.840
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot of time has passed since then, a

0:48:10.920 --> 0:48:13.520
<v Speaker 1>lot of faces have changed. And Zach Martin spoke to

0:48:13.600 --> 0:48:16.000
<v Speaker 1>it last night. They've got to figure something out up front.

0:48:16.440 --> 0:48:19.040
<v Speaker 1>They said, blocking up front for the run game is

0:48:19.120 --> 0:48:21.000
<v Speaker 1>one one thing they're doing that, okay, but if we

0:48:21.040 --> 0:48:22.800
<v Speaker 1>can't protect our quarterback, we're not going to win a

0:48:22.840 --> 0:48:24.719
<v Speaker 1>lot of games. That's taking a lot of hits, Yeah,

0:48:25.120 --> 0:48:27.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot of hits. So what do you think the

0:48:27.200 --> 0:48:32.800
<v Speaker 1>answer is? Up front? I want to I'm I'm committed

0:48:32.880 --> 0:48:35.719
<v Speaker 1>to allowing that left guard to grow. You know, I

0:48:35.840 --> 0:48:39.239
<v Speaker 1>am committed. I'm committed to allowing the right tackle to

0:48:39.360 --> 0:48:42.480
<v Speaker 1>try and develop a little bit more. Am I concerned

0:48:42.480 --> 0:48:45.640
<v Speaker 1>about what's going on at left tackle? Some Yeah, I am.

0:48:46.320 --> 0:48:49.839
<v Speaker 1>You know, center is a backup player. Center is really

0:48:49.880 --> 0:48:53.440
<v Speaker 1>a journeyman players. He's done the best he can and

0:48:53.560 --> 0:48:55.319
<v Speaker 1>it's probably and I don't see you going out there

0:48:55.360 --> 0:48:58.319
<v Speaker 1>and getting somebody better because you don't have anybody. Now,

0:48:58.400 --> 0:49:00.759
<v Speaker 1>maybe this Redman kid that they picked up one day,

0:49:00.840 --> 0:49:04.880
<v Speaker 1>we'll be a serviceable backup that it shouldn't use. Serviceable

0:49:04.920 --> 0:49:07.840
<v Speaker 1>because that's what Joe Looney is right now, Joe Looney

0:49:07.840 --> 0:49:12.080
<v Speaker 1>and getting you killed. But Joe Looney is not Travis Frederick.

0:49:12.600 --> 0:49:14.759
<v Speaker 1>You know, we can't expect that. We can't expect him

0:49:14.800 --> 0:49:17.440
<v Speaker 1>to play like that. They're gonna have to figure out way.

0:49:17.440 --> 0:49:18.960
<v Speaker 1>It's like Rob said, maybe a little bit what we

0:49:18.960 --> 0:49:20.520
<v Speaker 1>saw with Seattle, you're gonna to get the ball out

0:49:20.520 --> 0:49:22.839
<v Speaker 1>of your hand a little bit quicker. I mean, I mean,

0:49:22.880 --> 0:49:25.360
<v Speaker 1>but that's that's gonna put it on people on the outside.

0:49:25.719 --> 0:49:27.399
<v Speaker 1>That's gonna put it on the outside for those guys

0:49:27.480 --> 0:49:29.000
<v Speaker 1>to have to win a little bit more. So. We

0:49:29.080 --> 0:49:32.200
<v Speaker 1>don't have a tight end that can always win too.

0:49:32.360 --> 0:49:35.800
<v Speaker 1>That's another safety blanket that these guys use. We just

0:49:35.880 --> 0:49:39.320
<v Speaker 1>don't have that guy. Seattle played with two backup offensive

0:49:39.400 --> 0:49:45.440
<v Speaker 1>lineman three Actually yeah, all inside, well he's a backup,

0:49:45.560 --> 0:49:48.960
<v Speaker 1>he's not a back guard. But he was your point,

0:49:49.000 --> 0:49:54.160
<v Speaker 1>you're right, No, you're right. Draft pickin yea hunt center

0:49:54.239 --> 0:49:57.760
<v Speaker 1>and Sweezy at the one guard spot. And Sweezy started

0:49:57.800 --> 0:50:01.200
<v Speaker 1>games before he started. He started the the Chicago game,

0:50:01.480 --> 0:50:03.920
<v Speaker 1>and he started for in Tampa and then in Seattle

0:50:04.080 --> 0:50:06.520
<v Speaker 1>before he was Oh, that was a scary site when

0:50:06.520 --> 0:50:09.640
<v Speaker 1>I saw Cameron Fleming had left tackle for a grief

0:50:10.200 --> 0:50:13.640
<v Speaker 1>a milen of time. Yeah, And Dak didn't assign blame.

0:50:13.680 --> 0:50:15.279
<v Speaker 1>After the game, he said, look, when when I go

0:50:15.400 --> 0:50:18.720
<v Speaker 1>back and watch, I gotta see is it me Sometimes

0:50:18.880 --> 0:50:20.759
<v Speaker 1>is the protection? And I thought there was one sack

0:50:20.800 --> 0:50:22.080
<v Speaker 1>he took where he just needed to get rid of

0:50:22.120 --> 0:50:23.759
<v Speaker 1>the ball and he held he held it a tick

0:50:23.840 --> 0:50:27.439
<v Speaker 1>long and he took the sack. So again it's there's

0:50:27.440 --> 0:50:29.359
<v Speaker 1>a lot of different things that go into this. When

0:50:29.400 --> 0:50:31.680
<v Speaker 1>you struggled this much and putting up thirteen points a game.

0:50:31.719 --> 0:50:34.279
<v Speaker 1>When Zack Martin gets knocked back on a play, and

0:50:34.360 --> 0:50:37.480
<v Speaker 1>then Prescott feels that white jersey in his lap and

0:50:37.520 --> 0:50:39.680
<v Speaker 1>then he tries to duck it and go forward, and

0:50:39.760 --> 0:50:42.600
<v Speaker 1>now he's trying to throw the ball to Beasley coming across,

0:50:42.760 --> 0:50:45.880
<v Speaker 1>but he can't get his feet set. You know. Usually,

0:50:46.120 --> 0:50:48.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean nine times that attend. Zack Martin's got that

0:50:48.560 --> 0:50:50.839
<v Speaker 1>block and then boom, Now you got to step up

0:50:50.840 --> 0:50:52.640
<v Speaker 1>in a throw yep. You know this is what this

0:50:52.760 --> 0:50:56.640
<v Speaker 1>team is right now there there there every play you

0:50:56.719 --> 0:50:59.600
<v Speaker 1>could go, well where's okay, who made that mistake? Who

0:50:59.680 --> 0:51:02.560
<v Speaker 1>made that mistake? Well okay, oh that was Zach Morton?

0:51:02.960 --> 0:51:06.320
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, you know, I mean even the guy Ezekiel,

0:51:06.400 --> 0:51:08.839
<v Speaker 1>it's stepping out of bounce. We talked about that. When

0:51:08.880 --> 0:51:12.320
<v Speaker 1>your best players are making mistakes, you're not going to

0:51:12.440 --> 0:51:15.120
<v Speaker 1>have much success. And that's where they're all right now.

0:51:15.200 --> 0:51:18.200
<v Speaker 1>And this includes the OC. You know he's got to

0:51:18.239 --> 0:51:21.040
<v Speaker 1>do a better job too. But you know he can

0:51:21.120 --> 0:51:23.759
<v Speaker 1>call plays and they don't finish the plays. You know,

0:51:23.920 --> 0:51:25.799
<v Speaker 1>then there's not much I mean, it's it's I call

0:51:25.840 --> 0:51:27.919
<v Speaker 1>it low hanging fruit. You can blame him all you want,

0:51:28.480 --> 0:51:30.759
<v Speaker 1>but you know, there's the general manager has to look

0:51:30.800 --> 0:51:32.800
<v Speaker 1>at the play calling. He has to look at the players,

0:51:32.840 --> 0:51:35.640
<v Speaker 1>and that's on him too. The players are on him too.

0:51:35.719 --> 0:51:39.880
<v Speaker 1>I just wonder if people understand the quarterback hits that,

0:51:41.280 --> 0:51:45.680
<v Speaker 1>because that means he's getting hit. He's getting hit either

0:51:46.440 --> 0:51:49.640
<v Speaker 1>right before he throws the ball and he eludes it,

0:51:49.880 --> 0:51:52.279
<v Speaker 1>or it's right as he's throwing the ball. That's what

0:51:52.360 --> 0:51:55.480
<v Speaker 1>a quarterback is stepping up. So when you can't step up,

0:51:55.560 --> 0:51:57.960
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to be accurate. It's hard to get the

0:51:58.080 --> 0:52:01.200
<v Speaker 1>ball down the field. Don't have time to get the

0:52:01.280 --> 0:52:04.160
<v Speaker 1>ball down the field. Zach spoke yesterday we got Zack

0:52:04.360 --> 0:52:06.400
<v Speaker 1>was the only one that came forward. He said, if

0:52:06.440 --> 0:52:09.759
<v Speaker 1>we don't do a better job protecting number four, we

0:52:09.960 --> 0:52:13.640
<v Speaker 1>can't have a good offer and letting routes develop. And yeah,

0:52:13.719 --> 0:52:17.479
<v Speaker 1>and letting routes develop. See, that's another thing I'm getting

0:52:17.480 --> 0:52:21.480
<v Speaker 1>a little tired of, is Dak Prescott standing up there

0:52:21.560 --> 0:52:25.279
<v Speaker 1>taking all the shots and quarterbacks. Quarterbacks have to do that.

0:52:26.200 --> 0:52:28.160
<v Speaker 1>But he but you know what they ought to treat

0:52:28.239 --> 0:52:30.040
<v Speaker 1>He ought to be on the injury port every week

0:52:30.120 --> 0:52:34.120
<v Speaker 1>for stab wounds that he has to deal with because

0:52:34.200 --> 0:52:36.279
<v Speaker 1>he and hey, he's up there saying, hey, I've got

0:52:36.320 --> 0:52:38.960
<v Speaker 1>to get better. I've got Yeah, he knows that he

0:52:39.120 --> 0:52:41.879
<v Speaker 1>knows what he knows what he is. We know his limitations,

0:52:42.000 --> 0:52:45.200
<v Speaker 1>what he is, but we've also seen him play great. Right,

0:52:45.600 --> 0:52:48.760
<v Speaker 1>But you're everybody's right here. They better damn we'll figure

0:52:48.880 --> 0:52:51.759
<v Speaker 1>something out. You know, you cannot go into these games

0:52:51.960 --> 0:52:54.680
<v Speaker 1>and Mickey's right. You go back and watch eight games

0:52:55.160 --> 0:52:57.839
<v Speaker 1>before the Kansas, you know, up until the Atlanta game.

0:52:58.200 --> 0:53:01.520
<v Speaker 1>Maybe something psychologically is a affected him the way he's playing.

0:53:02.000 --> 0:53:05.160
<v Speaker 1>You know, maybe all those hits are now starting to

0:53:05.160 --> 0:53:07.760
<v Speaker 1>add up a little bit more. Maybe he's not trusting

0:53:07.840 --> 0:53:10.719
<v Speaker 1>what he's seeing. You know, guys are open, but he's

0:53:10.760 --> 0:53:12.840
<v Speaker 1>not going to make that throw because all of a

0:53:12.880 --> 0:53:15.480
<v Speaker 1>sudden he throws a ball. You know how many interceptions

0:53:15.560 --> 0:53:17.320
<v Speaker 1>this guy had now where he throws a ball and

0:53:17.400 --> 0:53:20.120
<v Speaker 1>it clangs off somebody's hands, it ends up in somebody

0:53:20.160 --> 0:53:22.360
<v Speaker 1>else's hand, and Mickey's talked about it. This is how

0:53:22.400 --> 0:53:25.439
<v Speaker 1>could that psychologically help anybud. It's an entirely new group

0:53:25.520 --> 0:53:27.880
<v Speaker 1>almost that he's dealing with. He's got a couple receivers

0:53:28.000 --> 0:53:31.840
<v Speaker 1>from last year and a tight end who got minimal snaps,

0:53:32.000 --> 0:53:34.239
<v Speaker 1>and it's other than that, it's an entirely different group

0:53:34.520 --> 0:53:36.640
<v Speaker 1>and they're trying to grow. Like you said, this is

0:53:36.719 --> 0:53:41.040
<v Speaker 1>the group they selected said, you know what, we don't

0:53:41.120 --> 0:53:44.359
<v Speaker 1>need to have a number one receiver. We don't need

0:53:44.480 --> 0:53:47.480
<v Speaker 1>to have a big time tight end. If you want

0:53:47.520 --> 0:53:50.400
<v Speaker 1>to point the finger, you could point. You could circle

0:53:50.800 --> 0:53:54.719
<v Speaker 1>everybody involved here. You know, that everybody needs to wake

0:53:54.800 --> 0:53:56.360
<v Speaker 1>up in the morning when they're driving to work. If

0:53:56.400 --> 0:53:59.680
<v Speaker 1>they're listening to me bitching about how they're playing, you know,

0:54:00.000 --> 0:54:03.719
<v Speaker 1>maybe you know, maybe that's right, Maybe that maybe you

0:54:03.880 --> 0:54:06.480
<v Speaker 1>need to be a little bit better with your players selection.

0:54:06.600 --> 0:54:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you need to be better with your coaching. Maybe

0:54:08.640 --> 0:54:11.920
<v Speaker 1>you need to be better with your offensive play calling.

0:54:12.000 --> 0:54:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you need to be better at playing at quarterback

0:54:14.719 --> 0:54:17.880
<v Speaker 1>or blocking it right guard, or not getting caught in

0:54:18.160 --> 0:54:21.080
<v Speaker 1>looking inside of the safety. Maybe you need to be

0:54:21.160 --> 0:54:23.319
<v Speaker 1>a little bit better doing that. That's why we're sitting

0:54:23.360 --> 0:54:27.080
<v Speaker 1>here having bitch fest right now because of things that

0:54:27.120 --> 0:54:29.840
<v Speaker 1>are going on. They're just not good enough. And it's

0:54:30.000 --> 0:54:34.480
<v Speaker 1>everybody's hand in this one. Well, we've got all week

0:54:34.520 --> 0:54:37.560
<v Speaker 1>to talk about this, you know. I do want to

0:54:37.880 --> 0:54:40.960
<v Speaker 1>mention this because there's breaking news this morning. A former

0:54:41.040 --> 0:54:43.439
<v Speaker 1>Dallas Cowboy, a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame,

0:54:43.480 --> 0:54:47.120
<v Speaker 1>passed away this morning. Tommy McDonald. Tommy McDonald was with

0:54:47.200 --> 0:54:50.840
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys in nineteen sixty four, remember the College Football

0:54:50.880 --> 0:54:53.759
<v Speaker 1>Hall of Fame as well, Oklahoma Oklahoma. In fact, in

0:54:54.239 --> 0:54:56.399
<v Speaker 1>at Oklahoma, he was part of that forty seven game

0:54:56.440 --> 0:54:59.240
<v Speaker 1>win strate. He did not lose a game in college,

0:54:59.520 --> 0:55:02.160
<v Speaker 1>playing for Bud Wilkinson in Oklahoma. He was drafted by

0:55:02.160 --> 0:55:04.719
<v Speaker 1>the Philadelphia Eagles, played with the Eagles for six and

0:55:06.719 --> 0:55:09.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure, I'm sure he is. And U came to

0:55:09.840 --> 0:55:13.560
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys in nineteen sixty four, played one year with

0:55:13.640 --> 0:55:17.120
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys and then was traded for Danny Villeneuave a

0:55:17.200 --> 0:55:20.360
<v Speaker 1>place kicker after Bob Hayes became a Cowboy in nineteen

0:55:20.520 --> 0:55:24.200
<v Speaker 1>sixty five. So Bob Hayes basically replaced a Pro Football

0:55:24.239 --> 0:55:27.080
<v Speaker 1>Hall one Pro Football Hall of Famer replaced another one

0:55:27.719 --> 0:55:31.000
<v Speaker 1>in this day and age exactly. And uh. And the

0:55:31.080 --> 0:55:34.640
<v Speaker 1>other thing about Tommy McDonald is he was the last

0:55:34.960 --> 0:55:39.560
<v Speaker 1>non kicker not to wear a face mat yea. So

0:55:40.080 --> 0:55:42.560
<v Speaker 1>Rogers is another one passed away at age eighty four

0:55:42.760 --> 0:55:48.160
<v Speaker 1>this morning. Yeah, so condolences to the McDonald family. Quite

0:55:48.200 --> 0:55:51.359
<v Speaker 1>a character too, and it may have been one reason

0:55:51.440 --> 0:55:52.960
<v Speaker 1>why he was only here for a year. I'm not

0:55:53.080 --> 0:55:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure if the Tommy McDonald character meshed real

0:55:56.000 --> 0:56:00.719
<v Speaker 1>well with coach Landry those I no, they had a

0:56:00.800 --> 0:56:03.239
<v Speaker 1>lot of characters on this and that's true. That's the

0:56:03.360 --> 0:56:06.000
<v Speaker 1>sixties and the seventies. By the way, I don't know

0:56:06.080 --> 0:56:08.000
<v Speaker 1>how Tom put up with it, tell you the truth.

0:56:09.200 --> 0:56:12.040
<v Speaker 1>That's probably why he lost all his hair. Yep, that's right.

0:56:12.360 --> 0:56:16.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, think about it. It's time you surprised that

0:56:16.520 --> 0:56:18.040
<v Speaker 1>last night before I know, we got a couple minutes.

0:56:18.080 --> 0:56:21.120
<v Speaker 1>You're surprised that New England went in there and took

0:56:21.120 --> 0:56:24.160
<v Speaker 1>an l Detroit. Sure it was our desperate team theory

0:56:24.200 --> 0:56:27.319
<v Speaker 1>again kind of working there. How about the Giants going down,

0:56:27.400 --> 0:56:30.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I know the Husto, Yeah two, one of

0:56:30.160 --> 0:56:32.600
<v Speaker 1>them had to win. How about Buffalo Buffalo? Here you go.

0:56:32.920 --> 0:56:34.680
<v Speaker 1>You can't figure this league out? No, I really can't.

0:56:34.960 --> 0:56:36.800
<v Speaker 1>We say it's a strange lady, it is. It is

0:56:36.880 --> 0:56:39.720
<v Speaker 1>Brian T shirt. Put it on T shirts. Winless teams

0:56:39.760 --> 0:56:44.640
<v Speaker 1>one five, five was eight winless teams have played so far,

0:56:44.840 --> 0:56:48.319
<v Speaker 1>including oh one and one Cleveland right on in one

0:56:48.400 --> 0:56:51.480
<v Speaker 1>Pittsburgh as a chance to win Pittsburgh to nice. Yeah,

0:56:51.840 --> 0:56:56.560
<v Speaker 1>five and one of them had to lose because they

0:56:56.640 --> 0:57:00.880
<v Speaker 1>played each other. So only two other ones, you know, lost.

0:57:01.360 --> 0:57:04.480
<v Speaker 1>I think it was Arizona and the Raiders. So you

0:57:04.600 --> 0:57:08.680
<v Speaker 1>contend it's a good thing for the Cowboys got off

0:57:08.719 --> 0:57:11.120
<v Speaker 1>the schneid to get off first, they got their WEDT

0:57:11.200 --> 0:57:13.680
<v Speaker 1>night way to get some points though, Yeah, because you

0:57:13.760 --> 0:57:15.400
<v Speaker 1>know you don't really want Matt Stafford getting in a

0:57:15.480 --> 0:57:19.480
<v Speaker 1>rhythm offensively, not here, not when he's from here. Then

0:57:19.520 --> 0:57:20.840
<v Speaker 1>you gotta because then you got to come back and

0:57:20.920 --> 0:57:25.760
<v Speaker 1>match that mixed Yeah ye out fast. Yeah. Well they

0:57:25.840 --> 0:57:30.080
<v Speaker 1>lost two to row. All right, that doesn't for talking Cowboys.

0:57:30.200 --> 0:57:33.640
<v Speaker 1>We will talk at you again tomorrow. The break isn't next.

0:57:34.680 --> 0:57:37.320
<v Speaker 1>This has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com

0:57:37.600 --> 0:57:39.640
<v Speaker 1>and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
