00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: We were on the back porch and Mickey and I

Speaker 1: played got on the big boom box. I played Cowboys

16
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:46,440

18
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: going on? So? Did you play the song every time

19
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: they scored a touchdown? I was voted out after the

20
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: pregame stuff. Yeah, I was gonna have to continue watching

21
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: the game on the back patio if I continued and

22
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: playing stampede. But it was cold out, dude, Yeah it was,

23
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: that's right. So so here we are. It's the Monday.

24
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: After a Cowboys fifty one to twenty six win over

25
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles, the playoffs are all set. The Cowboys

26
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,679
Speaker 1: have the third seed after an unbelievable Sunday in the

27
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: league and taken on the Arizona Cardinals. No, the Los

28
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: Angeles Rams, who had the San Francisco forty nine Ers

29
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: as the Cowboys first round opponent, had that Spags, Can

30
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 1: you say that I was saying I didn't want the

31
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine ers, that's what you were saying. Yes,

32
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 1: I agree with your spags, h I agree with you.

33
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: I think that anytime that we've had bad games this year,

34
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: it is typical of just how the forty nine ers

35
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: attack you, Right, Is that what you're concerned about? Yeah,

36
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: the fact that they run the football and can put

37
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,959
Speaker 1: pressure on the quarterback, and it did the Rams in

38
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 1: big time yesterday in the second half, in the second

39
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: in the second half, yeah, exactly, And so hopefully the

40
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: Cowboys watched the second half and figured out exactly what

41
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 1: they were doing to Stafford. You know, they still had

42
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: trouble stopping Cooper Cup, but that was an amazing comeback,

43
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: I'll tell you that. So pretty physical on defense. So

44
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: that Cowboys offensive line is going to have its work

45
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: cut out for him. Well, i'll tell you what, I

46
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: think that the d line will as well. You saw

47
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: how they were running the ball on a very good

48
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: Rams front line, but they seem to be more susceptible

49
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: to rushing for some reason. And they didn't even the

50
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: forty nine ers did not have the starting running back

51
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: I believe, is it Trent Williams? Uh left tackles? Yeah,

52
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: and so yeah, I'm sorry that admit the tackle. Yeah,

53
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna play this week. He's a good one.

54
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: He is a good one. So we we that's gonna

55
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: be a d Law matchup right, well or Randy Gregory

56
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,119
Speaker 1: on the He's Trent Williams at left tackle and Randy

57
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: Gregory off the right side. Okay, so yeah, okay, I

58
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: like the way he looked on the sideline. Trent Williams, Yeah,

59
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: kept on and uh we okay, So it being the

60
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers. It's been so long since the Cowboys

61
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: have played the forty nine Ers in the playoffs. I

62
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: from a media standpoint, From a fan standpoint, not so

63
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: much the strategy of the game and how the teams

64
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: match up against each other, the intrigue of the matchup.

65
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: I like it from the historical standpoint, and also the

66
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: fact that these teams haven't played each other this year

67
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: and so it's new. Yeah, absolutely, you don't have You're

68
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: not playing Philadelphia a third time, which a lot of

69
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: people thought could happen. And you're now, if we had

70
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,799
Speaker 1: a preference, we'd play Philadelphia. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the third

71
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: time to actually playing Arizona the second time would not

72
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 1: be all that bad either. Well, you know the way

73
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: they talked, all the trash spags. You know, the Cowboys

74
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: were extremely fired up, you know, with the elation because

75
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: the elation of the Cardinals. I mean, they were like,

76
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see these guys again. They were

77
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: they were actually calling for the Cardinals again. Do you

78
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: think that was real or well, that's just frustration. Have

79
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: to get in your butt kick? Yeah, I bet it was.

80
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 1: It was frustration. Although they were probably looking at the

81
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: probability and saying, Okay, chances are we're getting them again

82
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: and we ain't aired right. Uh. And and maybe Arizona

83
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: should have checked themselves, um, getting getting beat like that

84
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: by by Seattle. Um? How about them? How about them?

85
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: They were they were on the verge winning the division,

86
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: winning the division, getting a home game and having what

87
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 1: would have been what the third seed? Um, And they

88
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: would have been hosting San Francisco this week rather than

89
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: having to go and play at the Rams. And then

90
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: what did they do give up? Like thirty eight points

91
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: three eight points, one hundred and ninety yards rushing to

92
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: Rashad Penny and then and then and also look at

93
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: the Cardinals where they have been the last half of

94
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: the season, with the exception of that win over the

95
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:50,719
Speaker 1: Cowboys a week ago. They are there are four and

96
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 1: six the last ten games. Yeah, So so there you go.

97
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: Is it? So? Is it the cow Is it the Cowboys?

98
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: Or do these teams just play their best game against them?

99
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: How many times does this happen? I think they just

100
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: like Jerry's world, man, you know, that's so comfortable coming in,

101
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: the family wants to come in. It's like a family reunion,

102
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: you know. They come in to watch the game, they

103
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: cheer in the stands, they go shopping. You know, it's

104
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: it's like a it's like watching it's like going to

105
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: the chapel or something. Wasn't that the Notre Dame Chapel,

106
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. It's like going there, you

107
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: want to visit, and you know, it's like an It's

108
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: like it's like a monument. It's like, I mean, Denver

109
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: comes in here and wins, and then they hadn't done

110
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: squat the rest of the year. In fact, in fact, Mickey,

111
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: the guy who drew up the blueprint to stop this

112
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: Cowboys offense was let go by the Denver Broncos yesterday

113
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: and so he's taking his blueprint with him elsewhere. There's

114
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: a lot of guys taking them. We got that rights fag, Micky,

115
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: you keeping tabs on what it was Black Sunday for

116
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: Vic Fangio yesterday, but black Monday today. There's been a

117
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 1: zimmer number of coaches, including Mike Zimmerman. We were surprised

118
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: about the Floyds, uh spags in my own yeah, because

119
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: they kind of made a they made a comeback, right, Yeah,

120
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: it didn't. It didn't come back. That not good enough. Yeah,

121
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: probably no surprises in Chicago with Matt Nage, no doubt.

122
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what my vote for coach of

123
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: the Year is, Rich Besochia. I love that. Yeah, I

124
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: like that. I love that, and um we'll get you see.

125
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: Did you see the stat that he's only um, I

126
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: think it was only the third? You know, he's the

127
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:44,479
Speaker 1: fourth interim head coach to get his team in the playoffs,

128
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: and the other three were in nineteen sixty one, nineteen

129
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: fifty two, in nineteen forty two. Yep, I heard that.

130
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 1: I heard that. You had to go all the way back.

131
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: The most recent one was nineteen sixty one. Red Grange

132
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: was probably plan. And for those of us who have

133
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 1: been around Rich Pisacio when he was here, why not

134
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: him be a head coach in the in the NFL.

135
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: This isn't the way he wanted to get the opportunity,

136
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 1: I know, but he's making the most of that opportunity

137
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: and so great for him. And you know that you

138
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: talk about a special team's coach having to coach up

139
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: the entire team, and he's done it throughout his career.

140
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 1: He's been loved everywhere that he's coached, including here and

141
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,959
Speaker 1: so great that he's making the most of the opportunity

142
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: and the Raiders get into the playoffs. And what a

143
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:41,719
Speaker 1: football game that was last night. I was working. I

144
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 1: was working, and so I was able to watch and

145
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: then go do a hit on CBS eleven News and

146
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: then come back and watch some more. And converting six

147
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: fourth downs the Chargers do justin Herbert, that nineteen play

148
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: drive that wound up with the tying touchdown on the

149
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: last play of regulation, and prior to that, on fourth

150
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,079
Speaker 1: and twenty one, completing the past and going for two

151
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 1: to make it a seven point game. All that happening

152
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: in the last five minutes of the game. Yeah, but

153
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,559
Speaker 1: we got to talk about whether dumb play that really

154
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 1: decided the entire game, and it really shouldn't never, never

155
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,319
Speaker 1: have been a factor. You just don't go for a

156
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 1: fourth down on your own. What nineteen yard line that

157
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: was the that was the Chargers versus the Raiders. They

158
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: were backed up, I believe they had been inside the

159
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: twenty yard line and they went fourth on fourth down

160
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 1: and they ended up holding the Raiders to a field

161
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: goal after that, but that ended up being the final

162
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: score was thirty five thirty two. So the field goal

163
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 1: made the biggest difference. Well, I'll tell you it made

164
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: the biggest difference. In was the dumbest thing. Why in

165
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: the hell did Brandon Staley called time out with thirty

166
00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 1: eight seconds to go in overtime? The Raiders we're gonna

167
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: take a knee and they were both gonna tie and

168
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: go to the playoffs, and I think he pissed them

169
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 1: off by calling time out. And it was like, okay,

170
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: you want to call time out? Here we go getting

171
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 1: the first down and now we're gonna kick the field goal.

172
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 1: Because the scenario was they didn't have to do anything,

173
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 1: and we both could have been in yeah, me and

174
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: you bro, me and you Bill, we're gonna get in, brother, Yeah,

175
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: you raid us some charges, man, let's go. Now, I

176
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: gotta call time and I was I was doing a sportscasting,

177
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: so I wasn't able to watch that live. So the

178
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: speculation was already there from Chris Collinswood, Okay, well what

179
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 1: are we gonna do here? The clock is ticking ticket ticket.

180
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: You sound like uh boomer tig tick tick ticket, So

181
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 1: that's going down. And my son and I were like,

182
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 1: they don't have to do anything, and we were just

183
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: laughing at Pittsburgh fans. They were Pittsburgh fans. Show that

184
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: guy Pittsburgh fans at the game. That was crazy, So

185
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: you know that that could have been in. So he's

186
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: going crazy because the clock's going to winding down. He

187
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 1: was number ninety on Watch Jersey and he ended up.

188
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: He was going crazily. These guys are gonna just they're

189
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 1: gonna buddy it. They're gonna budd you to the end. Right,

190
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: That's what he was thinking. You could almost read his lips.

191
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 1: So it was a great situation for Bosaccia because he's

192
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: sitting there going, Okay, we're good if we if we

193
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 1: take a knee, or we're good if we can The

194
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: only thing where it could backfire on us if they

195
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 1: blocked the field goal and returning for a touchdown. That's it.

196
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: So why try field goal? Field goal? He wasn't even

197
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: thinking about that. Then you call time out? Really, you

198
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: know what, he made two of the most bonehead moves

199
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 1: that I've ever seen in the playoffs the fourth end

200
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: that time out. I saw what Posacchi had to say afterwards,

201
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: and you know he didn't say, Okay, we were gonna

202
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 1: just let it run out. And when we get the tie.

203
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: He basically said, we had the conversation. And so I'm

204
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: thinking if they had the conversation that was that was

205
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: on the top of their mind, that that's what they

206
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 1: were gonna do, not chance screwing something up with a

207
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: block field goal or a bad snap or anything like that.

208
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: We'll just take the time we go to the go

209
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: to the But then they called time out, and I'm

210
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: sure Tomlin, if you if you're Tomlin, you're Mike Tomlin,

211
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: you're sitting there. I'm sure he was going crazy himself.

212
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 1: You're sitting there, You're like, you know what, this is

213
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 1: not purposeful. You know it's not There's not nothing I

214
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,959
Speaker 1: should take personally, because yeah, as the as the Raiders,

215
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 1: you don't want a chance, Hey, blocked field goal. Well,

216
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: here's the other part of it. They put put yourself

217
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 1: in the mind of Rich Masachi and the Raiders right there,

218
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: my understanding, And they didn't do a very good job

219
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: on television explaining the scenario. Okay, once we got down

220
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: to that overtime situation, I wanted to know, if the

221
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: Chargers win this game, who are they playing next week?

222
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: If they tie this game, who are they playing next week?

223
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: And vice versa for the for the Raiders, if they win,

224
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: who are they play graphics? But they didn't. They needed

225
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: to a very confusing graphical exactly. And so and I

226
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: think I wrote it down right. I had to run

227
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: it back. I just have to get the graphics, and

228
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: I think I wrote it down right. So the choice

229
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: then that Besachia and the Raiders had to make there.

230
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: If they kick the field goal, they play Cincinnati. If

231
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 1: they take a knee, they're playing at Kansas City. And

232
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: so that, in my mind is insane. I understand Cincinnati

233
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: beat Kansas City last week, but in a playoff game,

234
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: I will take my chances going to play Cincinnati rather

235
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: than playing Kansas City. And if you're gonna give me

236
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: a chance to kick a field goal to win me

237
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: a trip to Cincinnati rather than Kansas City, then I'll

238
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: go ahead and kick that field goal. I wonder if

239
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: they thought about that. Oh, I'm sure they had to. Yeah,

240
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure they did. It's it's just a mat of

241
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: picking your poison. But then the decision was made for them,

242
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: so let's just go with that. So now they are

243
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: they're going to Cincinnati, correct, that's right? They Yeah, the

244
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: three thirty game on Saturday. All right, it's time to

245
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: take a break. Mickey, do you are we gonna be able? No,

246
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: you're on the phone. You can't do reads this week? Right?

247
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 1: Or why not? Oh? You got him right there? Good?

248
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: We will have you. We will have you do a

249
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,360

00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: when Everson Walls picked off two passes and recovered a

307
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 1: fumble in a game. Enough, wasn't it enough? I gave

308
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 1: him three chances, Bill, I gave you ball three times.

309
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,640
Speaker 1: I think we had I think overall in that game

310
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: we had five turnovers, five alt I got a call.

311
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 1: That's pretty good. That's pretty good. That's enough to win

312
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 1: a game. That's enough to win any game. You got

313
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 1: five turn thoughs. Well, let's see here. I've got two

314
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: picks by Everson Walls, an interception by Randy Wandy White,

315
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 1: they try to screen pass. There's there's three takeaways, a

316
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 1: fumble recovery by Everson Walls. There's four, Larry Bethea with

317
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: a fumble recovery, Mike Hegman a fumble recovery. There's six, six,

318
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 1: and then two offensive players, James Jones and Danny White

319
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 1: with bumble recoveries. No, that's good. At least they contributed.

320
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,160
Speaker 1: It's nice that the offense came to the game. So Mickey,

321
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 1: Mickey World, How in the world. Do you lose a

322
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 1: game when you get six takeaways? I have no idea,

323
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: but I don't know about you, Mickey, but that is

324
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 1: what I remember from forty years ago. Today, that is

325
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: what I choose to remember forty years ago. Remember Everson

326
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 1: Walls with two interceptions in a fumble record. I have

327
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 1: a feeling that that was more to it because for

328
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: some reason I am sitting here, your phone is blowing

329
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: up today. Huh well, no, not as much as uh

330
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: you know, you just gotta wonder, Like as you talk

331
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 1: about the six turn, though, I'm getting more pissed off

332
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: here Bill six It was six, dude, and no one

333
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: talks about that. Oh my goodness, my goodness. So that's

334
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: one ring away the Hall of Fame. You think that

335
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: has something to do with it. No, here's what we're

336
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: gonna do. We're gonna set the record straight. Okay, and yeah,

337
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 1: people talk about that play, that catch whatever forty years ago.

338
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 1: But what's happening this season is Everson Walls is getting

339
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: back on the man line, bro And thanks to Trayvon

340
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 1: Digs And by the way, I know, Everson was was

341
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 1: rootings more than anybody for Trayvon to get his twelfth pick.

342
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: Of course, didn't have the opportunity because he wasn't able

343
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: to play. What happened. I never didn't know what happened.

344
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 1: I was in Saturday Night, Mickey, you want to fill

345
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,479
Speaker 1: us in on um guys who didn't play on Saturday Night?

346
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: Oh boy, I'm looking right now. And it was a

347
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:15,119
Speaker 1: long list. So j Jay Ryan Curse was going to

348
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,719
Speaker 1: miss with a hamstring, but he then had COVID. Uh,

349
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 1: Darian Thompson on the practice squad probably would have been

350
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 1: called up, but he had COVID. Then out, Tyrn Smith,

351
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons, and Anthony Brown all out with COVID. Trayvon

352
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 1: Diggs technically was with an illness the same as Donovan

353
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 1: Wilson had, and Donovan Wilson was able to play, and

354
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard was out with a foot, so uh. The

355
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 1: Cowboys actually activated Blake Jarwin by the way off of

356
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:54,640
Speaker 1: ir Yees, so he was able to he was able

357
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 1: to play. So yeah, the Cowboys had quite a few

358
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: players out. Also. I know it wasn't to the extent

359
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: that Philadelphia had, since they decided to sit their entire

360
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: defense and the majority of their offense. But you know,

361
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: when you're not. You have both of your starting corners out,

362
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 1: your best defensive player, Michael Parsons out. It certainly makes

363
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 1: somewhat of a difference, but a lot of guys got

364
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: to play, and maybe it turns out that that's a

365
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 1: good thing. Well, I wanted to ask you this. Have

366
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 1: you heard any I wouldn't say apologies, but a little

367
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:35,920
Speaker 1: could you hear people eating a little bit of crow?

368
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: In regards to the Cowboys taking all these efforts to

369
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: win this game, you know, they played this game as

370
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 1: if they had to win it because they knew that

371
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: there was a chance that they can improve their position.

372
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:49,880
Speaker 1: And it seems like that all played out well because

373
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: they did go from four to three. And so, what

374
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: you think, and I know what the answer is going

375
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 1: to be, don't you think that that effort was worth

376
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:04,400
Speaker 1: it considering the outcome from yesterday? Well, you know, ever

377
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: since obviously the percentages were against him to get the

378
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 1: second seed, but they came within one game out of

379
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 1: the three of getting there. Yeah, you know at Tampa Bay,

380
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 1: not one. The Cowboys would have been the second seed

381
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 1: because they got the other two things to happen. The

382
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 1: Rams got beat and Arizona got beat and they won,

383
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: by the way, So you know what the the irony

384
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,880
Speaker 1: of this whole thing is, we played seventeen games. If

385
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 1: the Cowboys had been better in the final one twenty

386
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: four of the first game, they would have been the

387
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 1: second seed. It right, because they got beat by Tampa

388
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: Bay on a walk off field goal. And who knows

389
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: now this one I understand, right, because Tampa Bay and

390
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 1: the Packers ended up tying, but the cap the Packers

391
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: just took the foot off the gas the second half

392
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: and they got beat by Detroit. Right, Well, if that

393
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,360
Speaker 1: had happened and all this had happened, and the Cowboys

394
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 1: had won that opener, there's the first seat in the

395
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: NF seat. Yeah, but Aaron Rodgers would have played the

396
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 1: entire game. I know that that's the difference. But but

397
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 1: but even with that, the complaints were, why are we

398
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,160
Speaker 1: playing DAK and everybody's talking about he could get hurried him, Like, guys,

399
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: it's football, they always talk about somebody could get hurt. Yeah,

400
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 1: it's freaking football. So we played Dak. Everyone was kind

401
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: of complaining. But then Aaron Rodgers goes out and plays

402
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 1: and what I thought was a pretty meaningless game for them,

403
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,920
Speaker 1: So what's the I don't understand what's the what's the

404
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:47,400
Speaker 1: reason for playing Aaron Rodgers at all in that game?

405
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 1: To me, that was a much bigger risk versus reward

406
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: than the Cowboys risk versus Homes played for Kansas City. Yeah, okay,

407
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 1: but what did they did? They could they could have

408
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 1: if Tennessee had lost to Houston, but see, I give

409
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 1: which I can take that, but and they would have

410
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: had a first round by that risk. But now the

411
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 1: chances of Houston beating Tennessee. Now that Houston came back

412
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 1: and made it a very close twenty five finals, but

413
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: they were about as remote as Carolina beating Tampa. So uh.

414
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 1: And I think if Andy Reid had decided that, okay, um,

415
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's not worth the risk, no one

416
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: would have criticized him at Mahomes would have sat whatever,

417
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 1: you know. I think also that played a factor in this, Mickey,

418
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 1: especially when you look at the Cowboys offense is in

419
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 1: as long as season as it is, and as it

420
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 1: dis jointed as things have been up until the last

421
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 1: month of the season, as far as practice time, and

422
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 1: they're just thought on the practice field that much. I

423
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: think they looked at this game and the Washington game,

424
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: which was basically against their jv as practice opportunities and

425
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 1: getting reps on the practice field to get them ready

426
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: to go, especially since you're working in Cedric Wilson Moore

427
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 1: in this first team offense too. No. Absolutely, And I

428
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 1: said it last week. If if you say, okay, we're

429
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: not going to play our guys, then you just ruined

430
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 1: a week of practice, right, because then you those guys,

431
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 1: even if they're out there, they're not out there. And

432
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 1: so yeah, you've got two good weeks of practice in.

433
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: Didn't have to go hard, but you did get the

434
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 1: work in and you did keep guys attention. And I think,

435
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: you know, that's almost like you know when colleges say, well,

436
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 1: you know, the bowl game doesn't really mean anything. Oh No,

437
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: what it means is you get two weeks of practice

438
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: with guys that maybe are going to play the next year,

439
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: not so much in that bowl game. And that's the

440
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 1: key thing for the colleges to get in a bowl

441
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 1: game is to get another couple of weeks of practice in.

442
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 1: And so the Cowboys were able to achieve that. And

443
00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 1: I think we'll see, but it sure can't hurt, right

444
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,959
Speaker 1: It couldn't pay off. We improved that position. I mean,

445
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,399
Speaker 1: you've got from four to three is worth it? I

446
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 1: don't know, That's that's what I think. And I think

447
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 1: they probably feel like they're going to play better next

448
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: week because of what they did on Saturday night, and

449
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 1: and I think probably what was maybe alarming to them

450
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 1: if they had any if they were feeling good about

451
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 1: themselves after this, after a run in December where they

452
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 1: won four straight games over New Orleans, Washington, the Giants

453
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 1: in Washington again, the Arizona game was an eye opener

454
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: for them that, Okay, maybe we aren't where we thought

455
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 1: we were off asively and so we need to we

456
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: need more work before we start the playoffs. And you

457
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 1: know what marked this down? Note to self. Let's see

458
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:52,440

515
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 1: earlier in the show, the comings and goings, they're the

516
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 1: goings today around the NFL. Matt Nage lost his job

517
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: in Chicago, Brian Flores in Miami, surprise, and Dave Gettleman

518
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 1: is out as the general manager with the Giants, Mike

519
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: Zimmer with the Minnesota Vikings, and yesterday it was Vic

520
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: Fangio with the Denver Broncos. So we're at four right now,

521
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: and I got that right. And then, of course, as

522
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: we talked about the other opening would have been with

523
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: the Raiders with Gruden guy at mid season, and it

524
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: looks like Bisaccia might have earned that position full time.

525
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens once they play. In the play,

526
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 1: he looked real cool and calm under pressure, because that

527
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: was an exciting game. I mean, such emotional impact and everything,

528
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 1: and he was just stone faced, you know what I

529
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: mean the whole time. But but yeah, you can see

530
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,720
Speaker 1: that he was interested in and taking care of business.

531
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 1: I like the style bead. You could be a stone

532
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 1: faced head coach without running up and down the sideline

533
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 1: and yelling and screaming when you're the head coach. You're right.

534
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 1: But you can see it in his eyes, everything about

535
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 1: his eyes. He didn't he didn't run down into the

536
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 1: end zone to congratulate the guys. That was really interesting,

537
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: right that not? What? What was that? What was not?

538
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: A Hey? Basketball spats? He can go, he can leave

539
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 1: the coaching, boxing and coaching. He can do that. He

540
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: can do that. Yeah, but the guy shoot him back.

541
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 1: Hey coach, can you get your back over there? Another

542
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: coaching decision? Then what about Jacksonville? And yeah, I tried,

543
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: Jacksonville is open also that try and jackson how about

544
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 1: Jackson How about Indianapolis. Oh, my goodness, I'm embarrassing as

545
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 1: that I've been watching Hard Knocks in season. All that

546
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: I've been watching Hard Knocks in season, they have put

547
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 1: everything on my boy Carson wins. They can say, Okay,

548
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 1: we gotta we can't just keep running the ball. We

549
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: gotta be able to pass it, and you know, we

550
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 1: want them to earn it. And they tried to make

551
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: him earn it and he couldn't do it. Wow. They

552
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 1: put the ball in his hands build the last two

553
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: games and he blew it. And I think Indianapolis, if

554
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 1: I read it right, oh and eight, oh oh, for

555
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 1: their last eight at Jacksonville, then maybe oh and nine. Now,

556
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 1: how does that happen? Yeah, I have no idea. But Jacksonville,

557
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 1: it's a pretty good team several years ago. But but

558
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 1: it's I mean Jacksonville, I mean, and it wasn't just

559
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 1: a loss, it was it was epic. It was an

560
00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 1: epic loss. Yeah, they were getting blown. There was twenty

561
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: six to eleven, they were up twenty three to three

562
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 1: on them for a long time. And so I'm sitting

563
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 1: there watching the Steelers Ravens game and and okay, they're

564
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: tracking what's going on in Indianapolis, Because if in Indianapolis loses,

565
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: the door is open. That That's exactly, that's all that

566
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,320
Speaker 1: that's the main thing that had to happen for Pittsburgh.

567
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 1: They had to have Jacksonville beat Indianapolis and not have

568
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 1: a tie. And so, I mean, you just a Hollywood

569
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 1: scriptwriter can't write this stuff. And people would not believe.

570
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 1: I mean, it was just and so and you and

571
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 1: we're sitting there watching the game on last night. After

572
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh wins. Now they're in position. All they gotta do

573
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: is have either the Raiders or Chargers win, and the

574
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 1: and the Okay, the Raiders were up twenty six to fourteen,

575
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: and I was like, okay, it's not gonna be a tie.

576
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 1: It's a twelve point lead. But as soon as the

577
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,879
Speaker 1: Raiders kicked a field goal to make it twenty nine

578
00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: to fourteen, I said, we're gonna have a tie. Oh,

579
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,320
Speaker 1: it's gonna in there. So there's less than five minutes

580
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,759
Speaker 1: left of the game, and sure enough, here comes Herbert

581
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 1: back and uh, and then they tie it up and

582
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 1: then it goes all the way to overtime. And how

583
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:15,439
Speaker 1: about the fans in Pittsburgh watching that game with their

584
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: and the players in Pittsburgh watching that game. Uh, and

585
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: the fan in at the game right the Pittsburgh the

586
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh coaches and players are sitting there going on. But

587
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 1: you know, someone should do a documentary about you know,

588
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 1: have a little pictorial of some type of a film

589
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 1: thing going clips of all the different reactions and the

590
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:41,359
Speaker 1: drama that led up to that point, strictly from Pittsburgh fans, right.

591
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: And I can't believe the NBC did not have a

592
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: camera somewhere in Pitts Thomas option. Yes, I'm playing somebody

593
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: big Rothensburg's house because they were expect anything. But I mean,

594
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 1: you know what, you know what it reminded me of. Um,

595
00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 1: if you remember the nineteen ninety season, Uh, Everson was

596
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: gone then, but what happened back here to get into

597
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 1: the playoffs in the final Monday night game of the season, right,

598
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 1: and they were seven and nine and I'm trying to

599
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 1: remember what they needed. But the final game of the

600
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 1: year was the Saints in the Rams and it went

601
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 1: down to a walk off field goal to eliminate them.

602
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: And Mickey, I remember we had a camera. I was

603
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 1: working for Channel five at the time. We had a

604
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 1: camera at the Cowboy calf val Cowboys. Cowboys players were

605
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,280
Speaker 1: hanging out there because we're gonna get their immediate reaction,

606
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 1: you know, we go ahead. No, and I was there too,

607
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 1: by the way, um, and I think it was the

608
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 1: Ramps kicked the field goal to basically eliminate the Cowboys.

609
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 1: I think that's the way it went, or vice versa.

610
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 1: I don't that part of the wait wait, wait, we're

611
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 1: missing didn't Babe stink up the joint um to get

612
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 1: the Cowboys to win or something like that. They played

613
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 1: the foul because didn't Babe stink up the joint against

614
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 1: the They all stunk. No, they all stunk. What was

615
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:19,439
Speaker 1: the way to win? They needed to win one more game?

616
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 1: And they got beat The Troy got hurt in Game

617
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 1: fifteen against Philadelphia and Babe had to come in and

618
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,399
Speaker 1: they ended up losing the game. And then Babe had

619
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 1: to start the final game of the regular season. It

620
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: was raining, it was cold in Atlanta. This was before

621
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 1: they had an indoor stadium. Nobody wanted to play in

622
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 1: that game, so they were they were. They were eliminated

623
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 1: by the time that game was played. No, no, no, no,

624
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: they if if whoever ended up winning that last game

625
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,800
Speaker 1: in the final seconds on Monday Night. Had they lost,

626
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 1: the Cowboys were in at seven and nine, So the

627
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:01,880
Speaker 1: fact that they didn't go eight and eight? What was

628
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 1: what was Jimmy's deal? How did I'm surprised that he

629
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,400
Speaker 1: didn't blow up? I mean, you never talk about that

630
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 1: he blows up after so many insignificant moments. That was

631
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 1: a significant moment to where you go down and you

632
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: just kind of crap the bed. I guess, the lack

633
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: of a better term, you need. You needed that game.

634
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: That's why there was a trade for Steve Burlin. There

635
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 1: was the Saints beat the Rams twenty to seventeen in

636
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: that Monday night game. Okay, that's what happened. Yeah, had

637
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 1: the Saints lost, the Cowboys were going to the playoffs

638
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: at seven and nine. So in this one, they didn't

639
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:45,680
Speaker 1: settle the last playoff spot until the last second of

640
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: the last game of the year, which is rather amazing. Well,

641
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 1: I know that the NFL was patting itself on the back, yeah,

642
00:38:56,719 --> 00:39:01,440
Speaker 1: of having a seventeenth game eighteen season, because it all

643
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 1: played out exactly like they wanted it too. So, mister TV,

644
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 1: why did the Cowboys ended up at the second game

645
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:16,760
Speaker 1: on Sunday on CBS, because on what I'm thinking is, okay,

646
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 1: let me get my schedule here, so we we're not

647
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:22,920
Speaker 1: dealing with facts. This bag speculation. Just just so you

648
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: can tell by the way it started on Kansas City's

649
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,960
Speaker 1: got the Sunday night game, all right, So there was

650
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 1: there was a pecking order on and I'm not sure

651
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:32,879
Speaker 1: who had first pick of all the networks on which

652
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 1: games they want, and like the network the networks that

653
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 1: have paid the most money, meeting NBC and then CBS

654
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: and Fox, they are going to get the first picks

655
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:48,759
Speaker 1: and they split it up between the this round and

656
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 1: the divisional playoff round, and then who gets that prime

657
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 1: either the primetime spot late afternoon on Sunday is considered

658
00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: a primetime spot, not the Sunday night. Sunday Night is

659
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: number one on the list. Number I'm assuming number two

660
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 1: on the list would be the Sunday afternoon late three

661
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 1: is Saturday night in my opinion, and then you get

662
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 1: the afternoon the early games on each day on Saturday

663
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 1: and Sunday, and then the Monday night game. I when

664
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: I saw the Arizona Rams matchup, and I think it's

665
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 1: a great matchup. I immediately said, there's your Monday night game, right, thanks,

666
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 1: and I think you look at it, um so nby,

667
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 1: Let's say NBC had the first pick and they decided

668
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 1: to take my homes, they took the Kansas City's playing

669
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 1: Sunday night, and I'm assuming CBS had the second pick

670
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,359
Speaker 1: and took the Cowboys for that late afternoon spot and uh,

671
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 1: and then they also got the Saturday night I'm gonna

672
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 1: assume next week it'll flip. Fox will have the late

673
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 1: afternoon on Sunday and maybe the Saturday night game and no,

674
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 1: no games, buddy. But there was there was speculation that

675
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: the Cowboys were going to be playing on Monday Night.

676
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 1: I said, I think the Cowboys thought they were played

677
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,840
Speaker 1: in my opinion in this following it in the TV business.

678
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 1: And assume that ESPN is not going to get a

679
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 1: top pick because they haven't paid the same amount of

680
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 1: money that the other networks have paid. That they were

681
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 1: not going to get the cow because the Cowboys are

682
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,920
Speaker 1: going to get picked first or second out of all

683
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: the teams. But you said that's the best night though, No,

684
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 1: Monday Night's not the best. No, no, no Sunday night's

685
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:22,000
Speaker 1: the best night. Yeah, and that's why, that's why the

686
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,280
Speaker 1: primary game years ago moved from Monday night to Sunday

687
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,880
Speaker 1: night once once the league decided we're going to take advantage.

688
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: Monday night used to be the night man, right, And

689
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 1: a lot of that has to do with just TV

690
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:36,399
Speaker 1: programming in general. It's not as strong as TV shows

691
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 1: aren't as good as what they used to be, and

692
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 1: so in sports programming has risen to the top, and

693
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 1: the NFL has risen so much to the top. I mean,

694
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 1: you look at any week and the NFL just I mean,

695
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 1: it can be a Sunday afternoon noon game and it

696
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:54,319
Speaker 1: blows away from anything that's produced by the networks at

697
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,439
Speaker 1: any time during the during the rest of the week.

698
00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:01,799
Speaker 1: So how did Fox only get one game? Do they

699
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 1: not have the early game on on Saturday? I didn't

700
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 1: think so, I thought when I saw that. But that's

701
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 1: what they don't have enough. They don't have so many

702
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,359
Speaker 1: to where we're butting heads, do they. Let's see, let

703
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 1: me look up. That would be Saturday real quick here, Um,

704
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,520
Speaker 1: why you no, that's right? Uh, NBC's got the early game.

705
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 1: So this week NBC got the Saturday afternoon and the

706
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:42,720
Speaker 1: Sunday Night. Well, CBS has late Sunday late, um Sunday afternoon,

707
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 1: the Cowboy game, plus they got Saturday Night. What's gonna happen, Mickey?

708
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: Next week? Fox is gonna get a couple of games, okay,

709
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 1: and CBS will probably just get one. So ABC got

710
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 1: which is ESPN really right? Right, That's what I'm at. Yep, Okay,

711
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 1: All that clears that up for me, because I was

712
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,799
Speaker 1: shocked at Fox only got one game. I'm surprised too.

713
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 1: I just assumed that they had they had the early

714
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,879
Speaker 1: game on Saturday. But you're right, it's an NBC game.

715
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:14,319
Speaker 1: So NBC has paid a lot of money. So who

716
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:18,040
Speaker 1: got oh yeah, yeah, yeah, before you get out of here,

717
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 1: Alabama Georgia. And by the way, this is why you

718
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 1: got a college football has got to go to a tournament.

719
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:27,080
Speaker 1: No one even thinks about these games until the day

720
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: of the game because the NFL is so dominant. I mean,

721
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 1: I haven't even just haven't haven't thought about the National

722
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 1: Championship game all week. Yesterday was so exciting. You had

723
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:41,440
Speaker 1: three overtime games, so I mean, and it's not that

724
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 1: you're football out, but it just let him cry or

725
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 1: but it's also it's it's like a reality TV show

726
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: and you build up storylines as the as it goes on.

727
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 1: That's why March Madness in college basketball is so great.

728
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:58,319
Speaker 1: It's over a whole story. And college football has got

729
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,160
Speaker 1: to understand from a TV stand endpoint, it's like a

730
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 1: reality TV show and you have to have a build up,

731
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 1: and that's why you have to have at least an

732
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:10,920
Speaker 1: eight team tournament, and they've got to be done before then.

733
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:16,239
Speaker 1: I think now, especially with online learning and stuff, you

734
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,720
Speaker 1: can do it in December, you know, and finish finish

735
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:21,759
Speaker 1: it in New Year's Day, you know. All right. So

736
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:25,480
Speaker 1: Alabama Georgia. Man, when I saw that Georgia team for

737
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 1: the first time, oh my goodness, that defense. They have

738
00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 1: five or six guys on that defense, and I was like,

739
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:37,799
Speaker 1: who is that guy? Who is like So I'd start

740
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,200
Speaker 1: I'd start looking him up, and oh, he was the

741
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 1: number one defensive tackle recruit in the country and this

742
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 1: guy was the top inside linebacker recruiting. This guy all right,

743
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 1: but when Georgia lines up on offense, before they even

744
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 1: run a play, I want you to just look at

745
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:59,200
Speaker 1: number zero, Okay, number zero, who's gonna line up as

746
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 1: in the slum. He's he's their second tight end, their

747
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:04,759
Speaker 1: first tight ends, a freshman. He's great. Okay, this guy

748
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:09,080
Speaker 1: is ensure enough, second ten, the second tight end. I

749
00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,800
Speaker 1: mean he is his body, he is a specimen and

750
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 1: he is he can play, and he can He's a

751
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 1: little raw. But NFL scouts are gonna be drooling over this.

752
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 1: And and I looked him up. What was he? Mickey,

753
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 1: He was the number one athlete in the country recruited

754
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:28,320
Speaker 1: out of Las Vegas. Wait, wait, wait, so what's Alabama

755
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:32,240
Speaker 1: working with them? Say all that, say all that, Alabama's

756
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 1: gonna win the game? There you go, there you go.

757
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 1: I have Georgia. I do have George. I think George

758
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 1: is gonna figure it out this time, and it's gonna

759
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 1: come from the quarterback. He'd better make it happen. And

760
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:48,240
Speaker 1: that's why you know, I'm hoping Georgia wins. But that's

761
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 1: been it right, Yeah, yeah, but uh, Bryce Young what

762
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:57,200
