Speaker 1: The following. He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot
Speaker 1: Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club Cowboys. This he's
Speaker 1: Talking Cowboys, straining live from the Dallas Cowboys World Headhours
Speaker 1: at the Star in Price Jolo. The goal line says,
Speaker 1: and now your hosts Isaiah stand back, heck My Harrison,
Speaker 1: Rob Phillips and Kyle Yeoman's It is a Thursday edition
Speaker 1: of Talking Cowboys, presented by Tostitos, the official chip and
Speaker 1: the official dip of the Dallas Cowboys. You got it?
Speaker 1: Good for you got it gay? Good job Isaiah, think dude, Isaiah,
Speaker 1: stand back, heck my Harrison, Rob Phillips, We've got Chris
Speaker 1: Beam in the back. Gentleman. It is a Thursday. We're
Speaker 1: getting closer to Week six in the matchup with the
Speaker 1: Patriots on the line, and well we're pre viewing the
Speaker 1: Cowboys offense versus that stout Patriots defense. This is gonna
Speaker 1: be fun because this defense is now nasty. They are nasty.
Speaker 1: How are we doing? I'm swell? How are we doing? Peachi?
Speaker 1: Are you doing? You swell? I'm swell? What was the
Speaker 1: what was the word that you've been using? Swell? Has
Speaker 1: it been swell? So y'all both used swell and then
Speaker 1: Heckman uses peach. We're swelly swell. Okay, that's might peaches
Speaker 1: the other day peaches, peaches, peaches, peachi. Do you like peaches? Love? Peaches?
Speaker 1: Is my favorite colors? Peach? Really? Yeah, I didn't know that,
Speaker 1: not a lot. I want to see you just strut
Speaker 1: up in the studio in a peachy shirt. Will be
Speaker 1: a peach for Halloween. I'm sure you've got one if
Speaker 1: it's your favorite color. I don't. I buy my wife
Speaker 1: a bunch of peach stuff. So that's how that works, okay, hex, Like,
Speaker 1: can we talk about the Patriots? No, it's it really is.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's all good. I mean I was thinking,
Speaker 1: like if I walked up in here a whole peach suit,
Speaker 1: I would rate well, first of all, ratings would probably
Speaker 1: go up the nue's good crushing like this guy in
Speaker 1: the peach stupelling on Twitter, and they would see just
Speaker 1: like sticking out. They would see each color pop instead
Speaker 1: of just like navy and white. Maybe you guys were
Speaker 1: on in New England. Maybe no, maybe be the bet
Speaker 1: this year instead of a Christmas tree. No no, no no,
Speaker 1: no no no no no no no, no, no, no, no no, yeah, yeah, yeah, boy,
Speaker 1: Christmas stuff. We stand with the Christmas trees. Okay, oh,
Speaker 1: we're doing another. And there's a shortage. There's a global
Speaker 1: shortage on Christmas trees this year, so that Christmas tree.
Speaker 1: The expensive resources guy, he's got a guy. I got
Speaker 1: a guy. I got a guy for most things. And
Speaker 1: also this may Hey, this will make you happy. They
Speaker 1: have it. There's a pumpkin shortage, so there won't be
Speaker 1: a lot of pumpkin patch pictures this year. I just
Speaker 1: took the kiddo to the pumpkin ain't no shortage, that's
Speaker 1: what they said. That's not already did it everywhere. I
Speaker 1: was trying to get her to take one home. She's
Speaker 1: throwing them all over the place. Hey, that's an annual pitch.
Speaker 1: Chris is going to do it. He does an annual
Speaker 1: pumpkin patch picture. Nice. Always good to see those annual
Speaker 1: pictures for the being Harrison Fai no, no, no, no, no no, no,
Speaker 1: don't no, that's not what we're going with. That to
Speaker 1: your wife say, I don't want to be part of that,
Speaker 1: and everything's wrong with love it. I hate it. It's
Speaker 1: not a part of something that I look forward to
Speaker 1: every year. Cliche fall, let's go to the pumpkin Yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't, you know. I wasn't raised. I wasn't raised
Speaker 1: in the pumpkin patch environment. So you know, it's a
Speaker 1: new thing, you know, and so when I'm exposed to it,
Speaker 1: I think you do it one time. I didn't know
Speaker 1: this was an annual, you know, pumpkin patch. Hey ride,
Speaker 1: you know petting Zoo. Can we do a hun of house? Yes,
Speaker 1: let's go. I think we talked about this. We didn't
Speaker 1: Hackman's out. Yeah, I'm kind of outre those two guys'll go.
Speaker 1: That's okay, all right, let's get into news and notes
Speaker 1: before we lose most of our viewers. I'll go, but
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I'll go with you. I don't
Speaker 1: even like haunted houses, but I think it'd be fun.
Speaker 1: News and notes from yesterday, Cowboys back on practice. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we could invite the fans. They were inside yesterday, looks
Speaker 1: like they might be outside today. Looks like the rains
Speaker 1: trying to clear up a little bit. Very very seattle ish.
Speaker 1: Not there make you miss home about thirty degrees warmer though? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Truth truth, uh, injury wise, let's see Trayvon Diggs did
Speaker 1: not practice yesterday. He was doing some chord work with
Speaker 1: Britt Brown during the open portion. I think they're just
Speaker 1: trying to manage that for Sunday. Zeke was limited so
Speaker 1: that those ribs are still bothering him. After running in
Speaker 1: the pylon, he was actually checking the pylon at Ford
Speaker 1: Center to kind of see is that one as heavy
Speaker 1: as the one that fell on me um. Let's see
Speaker 1: who else. Damante Kazi did not practice either. He was
Speaker 1: dressed out and he looked like he was in some
Speaker 1: discomfort early with a hip issue and wound up not practicing.
Speaker 1: So I don't think that's I don't think that's a
Speaker 1: major concern for Sunday. We'll see. Randy Gregory also had
Speaker 1: limited work again this week. And then yeah, they started
Speaker 1: the practice window on two players, Sean mcun and one
Speaker 1: Kelvin Joseph. So they can be activated at any point
Speaker 1: in the next twenty one days. Oh, tough decisions on
Speaker 1: the line. So within the next twenty one days or
Speaker 1: is that like the max they can be activated or
Speaker 1: do they have to wait twenty one days? No, anytime.
Speaker 1: Once twenty one days are up, if they don't do it,
Speaker 1: then they would revert to IR for the rest of
Speaker 1: the year. So but usually this means both guys are close. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, and Mike McCarthy has said, probably nobody coming
Speaker 1: off IR this week, but it sounds promising I would
Speaker 1: assume for Minnesota at the end of the month. Yeah, usually,
Speaker 1: or at least with that, I'm thinking Minnesota's gotta be
Speaker 1: the day, right. Is the bye week included in that
Speaker 1: three twenty one days? I believe so? Yes, Yeah, even
Speaker 1: though they probably we wouldn't practice a lot that week,
Speaker 1: they might have one actual sort of practice. I would
Speaker 1: imagine a pretty light week. Are you guys even nervous
Speaker 1: about the bye week at all as a team, just
Speaker 1: just knowing that, you know, obviously we're having a lot
Speaker 1: of success and you know where it's situated. Yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit. Mike McCarthy talked about it on Monday,
Speaker 1: and I really liked his answer. He said, basically he
Speaker 1: loves the bye week being early because he looks at
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving as like a half bye week of like the
Speaker 1: way that it kind of schedules out with the Thursday
Speaker 1: to Thursday and how they have that ten days and
Speaker 1: that extra layoff. We saw it last year with the
Speaker 1: Baltimore game. I mean the Baltimore game was like, what
Speaker 1: sixteen days after the one previously. Now that was delayed
Speaker 1: a little bit because of a COVID deal, but he
Speaker 1: likes that bye week being earlier, so that way it
Speaker 1: breaks the season almost into thirds. No, I mean, I
Speaker 1: just I know it's fast approaching. But you know, you
Speaker 1: talk about the two guys that gonna come back. I'm
Speaker 1: looking forward to seeing boss Man Fat. There's a lot
Speaker 1: of people we've been talking about him since he's been drafted,
Speaker 1: But I think Man Anthony Brown is that he's going
Speaker 1: to keep that spot on the bench right there for
Speaker 1: Kelvin Joseph. Maybe he'll get involved in special teams, but
Speaker 1: that's what for me mcwan That's why I believe his
Speaker 1: what you know, his add to the team has been
Speaker 1: is on special teams, but also in that man that
Speaker 1: tight end group. He did some really good things also
Speaker 1: in preseason. He's a would you say he's a better
Speaker 1: blocker than the two tight ends that we have currently, Um,
Speaker 1: I would say that, but I think both guys have
Speaker 1: gotten better at it. I think Schultz in particular has
Speaker 1: gotten better at it. But yeah, I think that was
Speaker 1: his role last year in very limited snaps to your point,
Speaker 1: and now Jeremy Sprinkle, I think they're out of elevations
Speaker 1: for him without I think, without the waiver process, so they,
Speaker 1: you know, it's a good time for me to come back.
Speaker 1: If they if they have to get creative there. I
Speaker 1: also think it would spell the end, at least temporarily
Speaker 1: of the Connor McGovern at fullback situation, because that's what
Speaker 1: a lot of what mcune did last year was working
Speaker 1: as the up back in a running situation. Instead, we've
Speaker 1: seen back there. I now say that I know the
Speaker 1: McGovern package. I like, I like Madden. It did it.
Speaker 1: We did it. We did a whole hit stick segment
Speaker 1: on it. It was awesome. You're already said about let
Speaker 1: somebody asked him last Friday, would you do you want
Speaker 1: to get a carry out of this package one day?
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, that's every little fat his dream. I
Speaker 1: love it. It was a good line. It was a
Speaker 1: good line. I don't know if it's going to happen though, No, So,
Speaker 1: is this really a tough decision coming up with guys
Speaker 1: like Kelvin Joseph coming back, or is this kind of
Speaker 1: just the beginning of those tough decisions. Are we going
Speaker 1: to see more? Is it gonna get tougher down the
Speaker 1: road with guys like Gallimore and oh so kind of
Speaker 1: how we talked about yesterday, or is this a tough
Speaker 1: decision with Kelvin Joseph and how he's gonna see snaps
Speaker 1: the way that Anthony Brown has been playing. I can
Speaker 1: see like three spots, three spots as on the roster
Speaker 1: as I look at it without saying names, I can
Speaker 1: see three spots that I can say easily, you can
Speaker 1: delegate those guys to IR or however else they gotta
Speaker 1: do organizationally to remove them from the active roster and
Speaker 1: replace them with guys that are coming off of pupp
Speaker 1: or I R I see three spots that are easy decisions.
Speaker 1: Now that doesn't mean that those are d linement for
Speaker 1: D lineman or cornerback for cornerback. But I do see
Speaker 1: some easier moves now beyond those three, I think he
Speaker 1: gets a little bit tricky, a little sticky when you
Speaker 1: say three is it three positions? Are three three people? Okay?
Speaker 1: So who are those people? Like back said said, but
Speaker 1: can you give us a position? Then? Uh? Well, I
Speaker 1: mean guys that are coming onto the roster. Are you saying,
Speaker 1: are you guys coming coming off? Because that's gonna that's
Speaker 1: gonna tell us process of elimination. You see, if you
Speaker 1: try to investigative here come on like back in roster,
Speaker 1: guys like guys towards the end of the fifty three. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think there's three easy decisions in terms of guys
Speaker 1: that come off, you know, unfortunately for them. But I
Speaker 1: see beyond that though, there's gonna be some more difficult conversations. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I mean if they don't activate anybody this week,
Speaker 1: if they don't activate anybody this week, there's another game.
Speaker 1: Oh we're still on. I don't know if we're still on,
Speaker 1: Like and everything shorted out and then picture came back. Wow,
Speaker 1: that was interesting. I keep saying it. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: it's deadly as catchman, it's a it's one hundred percent
Speaker 1: injury rate. Guys get hurt and hopefully that doesn't happen.
Speaker 1: But that's you know, sometimes you might have to put
Speaker 1: somebody on r you know, to to fill that spot.
Speaker 1: I feel like aliens are coming or something. Yeah, this
Speaker 1: is weird. I don't know if this is on program
Speaker 1: or not, but it's basically the entire studio is completely
Speaker 1: shorting out at the moment. So, yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: what's going on there. We're gonna keep going like we're
Speaker 1: on air and like it's not really heard from a
Speaker 1: fan standpoint or a viewership standpoint. But I don't know
Speaker 1: what's going on. Let's go really really, there's threeps. What's
Speaker 1: going on? You guys For guys that we know, we're
Speaker 1: gonna be contributors immediately, we'll see you. I want names, Oh,
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean there's it's the starters one through
Speaker 1: fifty three. There's guys that are kind of know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying is we've been talking about since for about
Speaker 1: three months now, Rob, and we we're talking about the names,
Speaker 1: and so I'm just I'm just asking. I said, I
Speaker 1: know there are a few names of positions that let's
Speaker 1: just say a wide receiver, all right, let's just say
Speaker 1: maybe a rookie secondary uh guy uh that that may
Speaker 1: be in deep deep water there. Uh. So, I just
Speaker 1: know there are a few there are a few changes
Speaker 1: that may be made once, especially once we get Gallimore back.
Speaker 1: He'll back this. I mean, obviously there's gonna be a
Speaker 1: bit of a shuffles. Is that better? Way? Better it?
Speaker 1: Everything is good on the on the viewership in so okay,
Speaker 1: keep going. Whatever's going on in studio is really weird,
Speaker 1: but I don't We're gonna push past it. Let's start
Speaker 1: talking about this defense for the New England Patriots. They
Speaker 1: are physical up front. I mean, this is really really fun,
Speaker 1: uh to look at as a matchup. I mean, Isaiah,
Speaker 1: of course you being a Bill Belichick former player, is
Speaker 1: this company the older talented, top end guys at least
Speaker 1: from an across the board standpoint. But man, I just
Speaker 1: my first two years here in Dallas, and great strength program,
Speaker 1: great all around the organization obviously, um and being here
Speaker 1: with the Dallas Cowboys was definitely a blessing. When I
Speaker 1: went to New England, U two things I learned all
Speaker 1: right immediately was how to prepare, right, was how to
Speaker 1: prepare for a game like the way in which they
Speaker 1: do in New England. So mentally the mental preparation that
Speaker 1: the testing, the film study, the meetings. He had more
Speaker 1: walkthroughs than Jason Garrett. Can you believe that? All right?
Speaker 1: The walkthrough so you're mentally prepared for every the situation
Speaker 1: or awareness, right, He puts you through every situation, and
Speaker 1: then on top of that the physical the physical aspect
Speaker 1: in terms of the training, I didn't know what it
Speaker 1: really meant to lift we I thought we had a
Speaker 1: really good strength program here when I got out there.
Speaker 1: You lifted like like you like how you expect guys
Speaker 1: to lift in the off season. That's how they lift
Speaker 1: during the season. I'm not sure if it's still that way,
Speaker 1: but looking at the size of these guys, I would
Speaker 1: imagine it's pretty similar. Now. We had Harold Nash, who's
Speaker 1: our head strength coach here now in Dallas. He was
Speaker 1: he was assistant strength coach when I was out there
Speaker 1: in New England, so I'm sure we're getting some of
Speaker 1: that here as well. But those guys lift the weights,
Speaker 1: and these guys are always because he always wants to
Speaker 1: be physical. He wants to wear you out throughout the
Speaker 1: game and throughout the season. He wants to be more
Speaker 1: physically demanding because he knows what this game turns into.
Speaker 1: As a weather starts changing, as a weather starts changing,
Speaker 1: what do you have to turn You can't throw the
Speaker 1: ball around anymore, so what do you have to do?
Speaker 1: You have to revert down to the trenches, and he
Speaker 1: wants to be demanding and the physical and own that
Speaker 1: that portion of the game. So these guys are going
Speaker 1: to be very disciplined. These guys are gonna be very
Speaker 1: large in terms of just how they present themselves, their stature,
Speaker 1: and then they're gonna be strong as all get out right,
Speaker 1: and they're gonna force you to do things the right way.
Speaker 1: They're gonna be in the right gap, they're gonna have
Speaker 1: their head on the right side. They're gonna tackle well,
Speaker 1: they're not gonna make bad decisions, they're not gonna hurt
Speaker 1: themselves penalty wise. So you have to find ways to
Speaker 1: approach this game and find where they're weak at, which
Speaker 1: I believe is because they're so big, because they're so
Speaker 1: aggressive against the run. There's opportunities at the second level.
Speaker 1: There's opportunities on an interior side of the defensive with
Speaker 1: Scholtz and things of that nature. Because these guys are
Speaker 1: going to be a physical challenge. They're only giving up
Speaker 1: having done an exact math yet, but it looks like
Speaker 1: total yards probably around three hundred and twenty yards per
Speaker 1: game total, not we just had what five fifteen yep,
Speaker 1: these guys are giving up about three twenty total. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna run a math here exactly. But that's what looks
Speaker 1: like to the offense that they're allowing against their team.
Speaker 1: It's a stout team. What do you think, ka, I
Speaker 1: think we're gonna bust him in the mouth. But his
Speaker 1: other thing, No, his other thing, And he's right, and
Speaker 1: you I love I love this is part of this
Speaker 1: this job, man, that I absolutely just now. I love
Speaker 1: it just watching Bill Belichick's defense. He has the recipe
Speaker 1: he has to and he has it each and every year.
Speaker 1: You go back. We talked about the offense yesterday and
Speaker 1: talked about how Mac Jones looks like Tom Brady two
Speaker 1: point zero when he started as a rookie and the
Speaker 1: way that they're playing him. The defense has always been
Speaker 1: the same. He does multiple fronts, hybrid looks. You don't
Speaker 1: know if it's a four three three four. Sometimes he
Speaker 1: has five six people standing at the line of scrimmage
Speaker 1: with just one linebacker. So, I mean, it's just one
Speaker 1: of those things with this team with the Patriots that
Speaker 1: you don't know. You you come into a game saying, oh,
Speaker 1: they're gonna play many may they may not. They may
Speaker 1: go too. You know, they may go zone, just the
Speaker 1: way that they're so so very well coached up and
Speaker 1: talk about those girthy guys that they have upfront. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: they got a lot of them, and we've been worried
Speaker 1: about that, especially with our weaknesses or perceived weaknesses in
Speaker 1: the middle. But look, man, these guys are not the
Speaker 1: wife taker Fletcher Cox. You know it's not These guys
Speaker 1: are not hard grave. We're not going to They've seen
Speaker 1: this before. And then you talk about their secondary and
Speaker 1: they're back end. They have some really good guys back
Speaker 1: there on the back end, but none of those guys
Speaker 1: are like the free safety we went against from from
Speaker 1: La Chargers. They're not like that. You know. They don't
Speaker 1: have individuals that can take you out like that. No.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing, though, they have some guys out
Speaker 1: there that are funky, and I mean, if you get
Speaker 1: when you get to Gillette Stadium, you smell something, it's
Speaker 1: gonna be Matthew Judah. If he is the real deal,
Speaker 1: sixty three, two hundred and seventy five pounds, they move
Speaker 1: him all around the place. He played everywhere at Baltimore.
Speaker 1: He played all over their formation, all over their line.
Speaker 1: If he has any perceived weakness that I can see
Speaker 1: in this game. It's stopping the run. It's stopping the
Speaker 1: run for me. Um, I really, I see, I see.
Speaker 1: We can run at him. He's a pass rusher. I mean,
Speaker 1: he's a high energy guy. They have a bunch of
Speaker 1: those high energy guys. You might have forgotten about. A
Speaker 1: guy by the name of Kyle van noy Um linebacker.
Speaker 1: He is man. He's another guy that's gonna be all
Speaker 1: over the place. But watch for Winovich number fifty. He
Speaker 1: is man. He's just one. I don't know how Bill
Speaker 1: does this every by finding a guy that he is
Speaker 1: like the guys like the energizer Bunny and he just
Speaker 1: does not stop. And those are the kind of players
Speaker 1: that I think that we've had problems with in the past.
Speaker 1: But when I look at our offense versus our versus
Speaker 1: their defense, we have one thing to do, and that
Speaker 1: is control the line of scrimmags. This is it. This
Speaker 1: is gonna be a fat man's game from from the
Speaker 1: tackle to tackle. We have got to dominate these guys
Speaker 1: up front, and we got to do it for four
Speaker 1: quarters and got to run at them. Yeah, Mike McCarthy
Speaker 1: wasn't interested in giving away the game plan yesterday, but
Speaker 1: he did say, look, they play matchups and they're you know,
Speaker 1: they're probably looking at Tyler Beatas and they're looking at
Speaker 1: the interior and saying, we're gonna Terrence Steele excuse me,
Speaker 1: at right tackle and saying that, you know, they're probably
Speaker 1: gonna try to go at our young guys. So we'll
Speaker 1: see how it how it works out. We didn't haven't
Speaker 1: even mentioned Dante high Tower, who's back for them, who's been,
Speaker 1: you know, the heartbeat of their defense for years and
Speaker 1: was a COVID opt out last year. I just to me,
Speaker 1: this is just what a test for Kellen Moore. I mean,
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about Kellen Moore later in the show,
Speaker 1: and you know he's been in his bag. He's the
Speaker 1: darling of the NFL right now and he's going up
Speaker 1: against Bill Belichick. And there's no greater test. Whether you
Speaker 1: say what you want about their personnel, if you don't
Speaker 1: think it's as great as in the past, they can
Speaker 1: scheme things up. I mean, they held Tampa Bay to
Speaker 1: nineteen points a few weeks ago, and that's the game.
Speaker 1: To me, you need to watch to see kind of
Speaker 1: what they did because in terms of personnel. That's as
Speaker 1: good as receiving corps as there is in the league.
Speaker 1: Maybe right behind the Cowboys are right there with The
Speaker 1: Cowboys played a lot of man coverage, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean they just basically and actually I didn't realize
Speaker 1: when I was watching the game, but they initially but
Speaker 1: they shadowed. They had three guys picking a receiver and
Speaker 1: basically shadowing for most of the game. Just say, it's
Speaker 1: like basketball, you take this guy for the entire game
Speaker 1: and so you just never know what he's gonna do.
Speaker 1: You know, you watch that the Rams Super Bowl against
Speaker 1: the Pats and they come out and they play zone
Speaker 1: like the whole game, which they were a man defense. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just totally totally flustered Sean McVeigh. So, I know the
Speaker 1: Cowboys are rolling and I'm not trying to gas at
Speaker 1: your body up not that super Yeah, I'll talk about it.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna fault back. They just have ways to scheme
Speaker 1: it up and make it hard for you. It's just
Speaker 1: fascinating to me though, because the Cowboys don't seem to
Speaker 1: really have any weaknesses right now. Yeah you can, you
Speaker 1: can take something away, but they're all, oh, by the way,
Speaker 1: they're averaging one hundred and seventy yards on the ground, right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the psychology coach Belichick, I have such a high regard here.
Speaker 1: I mean obviously most people do because of his success,
Speaker 1: but being in the building with him. His office is
Speaker 1: as soon as you walk in the building, his office
Speaker 1: is right there on the left hand side, so as
Speaker 1: a player, you come in, they have things all over.
Speaker 1: His office is literally right there, and he has a
Speaker 1: cot in his office. He sleeps there. There's days where
Speaker 1: he just sleeps at the office because he watches so
Speaker 1: much film. If there is a weakness right to your
Speaker 1: point in terms of if he has any kind of
Speaker 1: success against Cowboys, this would be the game plan going
Speaker 1: forward for every other team. That is true because he
Speaker 1: if there is anybody in this league that can find
Speaker 1: a weakness in our offense is him, and he will
Speaker 1: watch enough film to find that one little thing. So
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore, button up every dog on a little every
Speaker 1: little package, every formation, every protection, because he will try
Speaker 1: to find that whole. He's like water. You give him
Speaker 1: a crack, he'll find him freaking seek through that thing.
Speaker 1: That's a great analogy. Yes, I like that a lot.
Speaker 1: What is the blueprint. That's what we're gonna answer when
Speaker 1: we come back on the other side of the break,
Speaker 1: because I want to know. Is it the second level
Speaker 1: stopping the run? Is it the front four getting pressure
Speaker 1: on Dak Prescott? What are they going to take away
Speaker 1: from the Cowboys or attempt to take away when we
Speaker 1: return here on Talking Cowboys? Honey, big news? Gary? Are
Speaker 1: you okay? Oh? I'm not Gary anymore. I'm Jackie Flash.
Speaker 1: What see? I want the latest smartphone, but the best
Speaker 1: deals are only for new customers. So to get a
Speaker 1: new customer deal, I change my name to Jackie Flash. Okay,
Speaker 1: But the best smartphone deals at AT and T are
Speaker 1: for everyone, new and existing customers. That's huge. Then guess
Speaker 1: who's getting a deal? Is it Jackie Flash, Jackie Flash?
Speaker 1: It's not complicated at AT and t our best smartphone
Speaker 1: deals are for everyone. Restrictions apply. Is it att dot

Speaker 1: I do deserve that. You deserve decadent flavor without sugar,

Speaker 1: and a relaxing bath that your children don't interrupt. I

Speaker 1: visual metaphor on the radio. Dude, deserve that Doctor Pepper

Speaker 1: there was a draft, you could size up a cowboy

Speaker 1: here where we attempt to guess the blueprint. IM sorry,
Speaker 1: I guess our game? This? Are you playing Bill Belichick?
Speaker 1: Is that we're doing? What was that? Are we playing Bill? Ye?
Speaker 1: You're gonna you're about to put on your Bill Belichick
Speaker 1: hoodie sleeves and everything. Is that is that the Bill
Speaker 1: Belichick and Belichick doesn't have music? And you should already
Speaker 1: know that he's actually a funny guy that doesn't surprise.
Speaker 1: We'll find out Tomorrow's tomorrow, Chris is Tason. We have
Speaker 1: an idea for a game to march. It's gonna be fun.
Speaker 1: I got some pictures that I can never show. Yeah,
Speaker 1: please Belichick turns some of our Halloween party we had
Speaker 1: some years back. Those pictures those kind I don't need
Speaker 1: him tracking me down. He's already he's gonna get you.
Speaker 1: He listens, he watches the film. That's what he stays
Speaker 1: up at night doing, is he's listening to talking cowboys.
Speaker 1: Probably all right. So he usually takes one thing away,
Speaker 1: one thing that the team on the other side of
Speaker 1: the liner scrimmage does best. So, like Rob said in
Speaker 1: the last segment, Kellen Moore is in his bag right now.
Speaker 1: Literally everything is working. The offensive lines playing well, the
Speaker 1: receivers are playing well. Your run game is stout, one
Speaker 1: of the top in the league. And guess what, your
Speaker 1: quarterback is playing some of the best, most efficient football
Speaker 1: of his six year careers. So what does Bill Belichick
Speaker 1: try and take away? Heck, ma Harrison, do you believe
Speaker 1: that there is one thing specifically that is better above
Speaker 1: the rest that he's going to attempt to try and evaporate. Man,
Speaker 1: This is like hitting the grapefruit. Man. The easy thing
Speaker 1: is that is going to be taking away the run.
Speaker 1: And he's going to cry out the line of scrimmage
Speaker 1: and take that away and force the situation for Jack
Speaker 1: for Dak Prescott to try and you know, throw the
Speaker 1: ball all over the park. He understands that this offense,
Speaker 1: the way that it's been moving since week two until
Speaker 1: now has been predicated on the success that we have
Speaker 1: with play action. When teams have to honor us in
Speaker 1: the play action, it just opens up everything that Kellen
Speaker 1: Moore does. And I think that's the bag that we're
Speaker 1: talking about. So, you know, I think him being tough
Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage. And also I said, taking
Speaker 1: away the run, I don't want to take too much
Speaker 1: meat off this bone. Guys. If I'm Bill Belichick, I
Speaker 1: am going to consume the gaps right to your point
Speaker 1: of taking away to run. I'm gonna I'm gonna take
Speaker 1: away the interior run. I'm gonna force you to run outside, right,
Speaker 1: because I know that you want to keep Zeke in
Speaker 1: the game. I know that's what you want to do, right,
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna try to make Zeke go back to
Speaker 1: Zeke last year where he was trying to force plays.
Speaker 1: He try to force play is what happened. He felt
Speaker 1: with the rock. What have we done in these for
Speaker 1: in these first couple of games, we put the rock
Speaker 1: on the ground, not necessarily from Zeke, right, but just
Speaker 1: as a as a tame last two games, all right,
Speaker 1: So I would try to I would crowd the gaps right,
Speaker 1: not necessarily crowd the line of scrimmage, but but cover
Speaker 1: the gaps with with the size that I have right,
Speaker 1: use my stand up ends right to contain, to have
Speaker 1: some contain. And then on the on the secondary side
Speaker 1: of things, I'm gonna play two man, which means I'm
Speaker 1: gonna take my my cornerbacks, put them on an inside
Speaker 1: leverage of your of your receivers, and I'm gonna be physical,
Speaker 1: which is the line of scrimmage with help over the top,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna have somebody right over the top of
Speaker 1: your tight end saying I try to beat me. That's
Speaker 1: that's what happened on CD's touchdown actually where they had
Speaker 1: they were supposed to have to help over the top
Speaker 1: and the CD too fast for it. Um, that sounds
Speaker 1: good to me because I honestly, I don't know what
Speaker 1: they're gonna do. I don't know what he's gonna do.
Speaker 1: But but the one game the Cowboys lost, it's part
Speaker 1: of it is Tampa based personnel. But they crowded the
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and said we're not gonna run and
Speaker 1: we're not gonna run inside and Kellen did some. They
Speaker 1: did some things where it wasn't necessarily even tosses outside.
Speaker 1: It was a little little yeah it counts passes, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but maybe that's the way to do it. I know
Speaker 1: when they seemed like more so when they played Tampa
Speaker 1: Bay again, they kind of singled up man coverage and
Speaker 1: and maybe they're they're more favorable run boxes there. And
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay had about one hundred and twenty yards, but
Speaker 1: but they they flooded the passing lanes for Tom Brady.
Speaker 1: So I don't know, maybe we see a little bit
Speaker 1: of both, because I don't know, I don't know if
Speaker 1: you can play just one way the whole game and
Speaker 1: beat this team. Because Cowboys offense and their defense is
Speaker 1: only giving up one rushing touchdown to a running back,
Speaker 1: so the other wounds have been two quarterbacks and so
Speaker 1: that obviously, you know, this is going to be a
Speaker 1: game where Zeke may not have but like he like
Speaker 1: last time he was at Gilette Stadium, eighty nine yards,
Speaker 1: it may not be a one hundred yards. It may
Speaker 1: be by committee situation. That's why Tony Pollard is going
Speaker 1: to be so important in this game as well, especially
Speaker 1: doing exactly what Isaiah saying. If they're crowding the middle,
Speaker 1: and they forced us to go outside. We have a
Speaker 1: guy that is the switchblade to our running backs scheme.
Speaker 1: But here I talked about Matthew Judun and just what
Speaker 1: he does from a defensive standpoint, and I look at
Speaker 1: us offensively, and I pray that Belichick stays in a
Speaker 1: man versus because if he does, Gilette Stadium is gonna
Speaker 1: smell like biscuits. We're gonna burn them down. We're gonna
Speaker 1: burn them down. It's just mama's biscus, My mamas. I'm
Speaker 1: talking about the biscuits that win you up in the morning.
Speaker 1: We're gonna burn them down. And they'll have a hard
Speaker 1: time with our talent and the weapons that we have internally,
Speaker 1: if they allow like you're talking about a guy coming
Speaker 1: over the top of shots to bump shots, because they
Speaker 1: don't they don't allow free releases in New England. They're
Speaker 1: gonna put their hands on you. But still, if you
Speaker 1: have a linebacker man, a man with shots, I like
Speaker 1: that that matchup. Yeah, he will be tested in that regarden.
Speaker 1: Coach Belichick teaches um Man, yeah, very intentfully. He teaches
Speaker 1: get hands on everybody. Nobody gets free releases. Um, he
Speaker 1: wants to bang you at the line of scrimmage. If
Speaker 1: you're tight end, you better be watching film on and
Speaker 1: working on your releases off the ball, especial if you're
Speaker 1: coming out of a three point because you're gonna have
Speaker 1: a two hundred and seventy pound dude putting his hands
Speaker 1: on you right and he's gonna ride it. He might
Speaker 1: not ride you all the way to the second to
Speaker 1: the second level, but you're gonna do that. So the
Speaker 1: people understand that what they does, yeah, it throws off
Speaker 1: your time. And so if I'm Dak Prescott and I
Speaker 1: have two point three seconds to get the ball off
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden Scholtz is taken you know,
Speaker 1: half a second point six seconds to get off the ball,
Speaker 1: I'm off of him. I don't have time to sit
Speaker 1: back on him right because Scholtz, now you know, now
Speaker 1: we're one second into the play, one and a half
Speaker 1: seconds in the playing shots is only three four yards
Speaker 1: down the field. He can't get into his route. So
Speaker 1: it disrupts what what you want to do on that level.
Speaker 1: And then in terms of crossers, they know that the
Speaker 1: second level right in the middle of their field, the
Speaker 1: second level is their weak spot. So anybody who tries
Speaker 1: to cross over there and guess what they're gonna do,
Speaker 1: just like Harrison used to do casts and they're gonna
Speaker 1: try to take your head off. As long as you're
Speaker 1: within five yards, you're gonna feel them. If nothing else,
Speaker 1: New England wants to make sure that you feel them
Speaker 1: when you walk off this field. You want to mention
Speaker 1: that you go back to that and I'm going back
Speaker 1: twenty years and it was a different game, but the
Speaker 1: greatest show on turf game. They they just you know,
Speaker 1: beat the hell out of the body receivers and say
Speaker 1: throw a flag every play. Ref different game, different seeze On.
Speaker 1: But yeah, to this day, they're very physical defensive well,
Speaker 1: and that's what the second level of their defense does
Speaker 1: so exceptionally well. That's why Judon is feared, That's why
Speaker 1: Dante how High Tower is feared, that's why Kyle van
Speaker 1: Noy has a career in the NFL. Because they're heavy
Speaker 1: hitters and because they're good and they're quicken coverage and
Speaker 1: they can do a lot of different things. I think
Speaker 1: that's the strength of their defense is the second level
Speaker 1: heading into the third with J. C. Jackson, who by
Speaker 1: the way, was one of two players last year that
Speaker 1: had more picks than Trayvon Diggs has right now in
Speaker 1: the entire twenty twenty season, because there were two guys
Speaker 1: it was Howard from Miami and j. C. Jackson, who
Speaker 1: had nine picks last year as well. He's got two
Speaker 1: this year. So you've got some solid guys in the
Speaker 1: secondary well as well. Kyle Dugger d three talent out
Speaker 1: of the draft last year who we really liked. Um Well,
Speaker 1: mccordy's back there as well, I mean, second level into
Speaker 1: the secondary. I think this team's as good as what
Speaker 1: the Cowboys have seen so far. I like that, I mean.
Speaker 1: And one of the things that Belichick does is he
Speaker 1: brings in smart players. He brings like you see Jalen's
Speaker 1: Mills from the Green Goblin from the Eagles. I'm so
Speaker 1: heavy they play for the Eagles anymore. But he's nursing
Speaker 1: a hamstring injury as well. So you know j C.
Speaker 1: Jackson man the man on the Marai Cooper. I'll take
Speaker 1: that every day and twice on Sunday. You know that's
Speaker 1: that's a matchup. I will I will get it. He
Speaker 1: will be on that matchup. Or you think he'll go
Speaker 1: with maybe a CD Lamb On the other side. Oh,
Speaker 1: they better put somebody on Maray Cooper if they don't.
Speaker 1: If they don't, that's where the problem will will will
Speaker 1: start is with Amari. But again, you still sit in
Speaker 1: a situation where you have Ceede Lambing. We saw it
Speaker 1: last week with him being able to take the top
Speaker 1: off of a defense. All of that is still gonna
Speaker 1: be uh there for us, and Cedric Wilson has an
Speaker 1: opportunity right now being matched up maybe with their third
Speaker 1: or Andre Phillips, that guy that comes in at Nickel.
Speaker 1: I think he had to play a lot of extended
Speaker 1: snaps last week versus Houston. But you see the vulnerability
Speaker 1: there as much as we're talking sucking up Belichick. If
Speaker 1: you go back and look at that defense, they are
Speaker 1: playing a whole lot of snaps. These guys have to
Speaker 1: stay on alert because their offense is napped. So you
Speaker 1: know we can do this if we can get them
Speaker 1: the first quarter, jump out on them, score some points,
Speaker 1: and keep that pressure on the head for four quarters.
Speaker 1: I think this is a team is gonna be ready
Speaker 1: to lay down. They'll be like the Roly Police. Do
Speaker 1: you think that we will do you think that we
Speaker 1: will be the offense that puts up the most amount
Speaker 1: of yardage against them today? Today? Because to date it's
Speaker 1: a Tampa Bay game with three hundred and eighty one.
Speaker 1: Oh well, they're certainly capable of doing that. Can they
Speaker 1: cash in? Though? In that Tampa Bay game without the
Speaker 1: weather and everything, I think that had a factor to
Speaker 1: play in it, especially with as how explosive Tampa's offense
Speaker 1: has been. But I don't see them stopping us from
Speaker 1: getting more than four hundred yards. I don't see them
Speaker 1: stopping it. The weather is not supposed to be bad.
Speaker 1: I just looked it up. It's like sunny in sixty
Speaker 1: sixty sixty four, So it's not gonna be it's not
Speaker 1: supposed to be this slog. They haven't face it. I
Speaker 1: mean they face the Dolphin, no offense, the Jets, no offense,
Speaker 1: the Saints john to figure out their quarterback right. They
Speaker 1: had two hundred fifty two hundred fifty two yards total
Speaker 1: against against UH New England, and then they faced Tampa
Speaker 1: three eighty one. Houston has some success um and that
Speaker 1: was or yet three hundred and sixty yards total. So um,
Speaker 1: I'm interested to see. Oh I think I think we
Speaker 1: put up some some good yards against against them, for sure,
Speaker 1: but I think it's gonna have to come in the
Speaker 1: middle of the field, middle of the field, passing game,
Speaker 1: outside running game. So what you're saying to me is
Speaker 1: Dak press, out press. Scott's probably gonna throw the ball
Speaker 1: quite a bit. Yes, Tony Pollard's gonna have some pretty
Speaker 1: solid runs to the outside for the most part. If
Speaker 1: they're able to shut down Zeke, they'll try Zeke early,
Speaker 1: but then it's gonna be a Pollard game late, right,
Speaker 1: is what we're at least thinking. And then Dalton Schultz
Speaker 1: is probably gonna have a pretty good impact in this
Speaker 1: football game underneath, right in the middle of that second level. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: he's not gonna let he's not gonna let Coop. To
Speaker 1: your point, you know, he's gonna take Cooper out. He's
Speaker 1: gonna try. Let mean say that for people try to
Speaker 1: come after me to find me. He will make sure
Speaker 1: that Cooper is not the guy who beats them biscuits.
Speaker 1: I'm with you, buttermilk, Yeah, And the thing is is
Speaker 1: that the pressure that they get up front. Now, we
Speaker 1: talked about Judah, but we still haven't talked about Bentley
Speaker 1: number eight. They have a linebacker that he I'm telling
Speaker 1: you the guy. They're gonna bring pressure from a lot
Speaker 1: of different angles. They do it with their strong safeties,
Speaker 1: they do it with their middle linebacker. I just believe
Speaker 1: that right now you can do that versus a quarterback
Speaker 1: that's not experienced. I think Dak right now the game
Speaker 1: is like the athletes say, it's the game is slowed down.
Speaker 1: So if the game is slowed down for Dak, I
Speaker 1: think that gives him an opportunity to take full advantage
Speaker 1: of what they do. They just gotta be ready to adjust.
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore was asked about what are they you know,
Speaker 1: they're known for taking away strength, and he said, we're
Speaker 1: gonna come in with a game play we feel confident about,
Speaker 1: but guys have to be ready mid stream to say, hey,
Speaker 1: we gotta change it up, because that's I mean, it's
Speaker 1: Belichick gonna change it up, gonna bring the heat from
Speaker 1: that defense. And when we come back, what is Kellen
Speaker 1: Moore gonna do to try and come back that a
Speaker 1: little bit more? And also what did Troy Eightman have
Speaker 1: to say about mister Moore and how he's been playing
Speaker 1: or calling plays? I should say over the last couple
Speaker 1: of weeks when we returned with more talking Cowboys. Hi,

Speaker 1: Bomm Garrett Gilberts on the practice squad wagon. That's how
Speaker 1: That's how you feel about Garrett is the drop They
Speaker 1: do have an inside man though, Yeah, they got an
Speaker 1: inside man, inside man. I think he's over there telling
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore's secrets. Absolutely, Yeah, you think I didn't tell
Speaker 1: you ever? Do what? Yeah? I told the secrets we wanted,
Speaker 1: and I was playing with the Giants and we went
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl GUS Patriots. You think I wasn't
Speaker 1: given all the information? Does it help? Yeah? It does? Yeah,
Speaker 1: because I've never known if give me in about that
Speaker 1: stuff too much. Give me an example. I want to
Speaker 1: know what what information you were able to share while
Speaker 1: you were on the sideline during a Super Bowl. Concepts, signals,
Speaker 1: all that, so you knew what they were running before
Speaker 1: they ran it. There's there's some things they changed up,
Speaker 1: some things they didn't change. M I'm not gonna say
Speaker 1: what percentage of the plays of that was, but I
Speaker 1: don't know what the There was definitely concepts that they
Speaker 1: that they were running in signals that were not changed up,
Speaker 1: that we were pivy to the inside. Man, you have
Speaker 1: quarterback in the room with the New England Patriots. You
Speaker 1: remember something now one ring later, that's true. It worked
Speaker 1: out for yet let's go. We brought him in the
Speaker 1: snitch ladies and gentlemen, doctor Evil. I don't know if
Speaker 1: Garrett Gilmore's going to have that same kind of impact
Speaker 1: on the Cowboys, and I think Kelly Moore gave him
Speaker 1: access to the bag that he's actually digging in right now.
Speaker 1: Kelly Moore is like being at the weird talking about
Speaker 1: you know, like you know, uh, Halloween and trigger treating.
Speaker 1: Back where I grew up, you know, trigger treating. You
Speaker 1: had a little bag, right you will walk house to house.
Speaker 1: But I grew up in a hood, so there was
Speaker 1: always a bag snatcher. There was always somebody who will
Speaker 1: ride by on a bike and snatch your bag from
Speaker 1: you and would end up at the house with a
Speaker 1: bunch of people's bags. There were thieves, okay, but you
Speaker 1: just chopped that up as a l Kelly Moore is
Speaker 1: the bags and that right now he is going against
Speaker 1: all these defensive coordinators. Yes, he is taking the souls.
Speaker 1: He's taking the souls of defensive coordinators as we continue
Speaker 1: to go through our his talent. You just related the
Speaker 1: hood story about getting rough. I'm done. How do you
Speaker 1: top that? Tell the Moore is a bag snatcher, e
Speaker 1: the taker of he deep saying so whatever his name is,
Speaker 1: more to come back. He has taken souls from people
Speaker 1: right now and it's two weeks still Halloween, so it
Speaker 1: all just and this is just off the cuff. You
Speaker 1: didn't come in thinking of that. You guys never got
Speaker 1: your back snatch before. No, no, no, you guys grew
Speaker 1: up in a good neighbor here. Nah I didn't. But
Speaker 1: nobody taken that. You've never seen a kid's soul just
Speaker 1: leave his body until his whole nights. Yeah, just got
Speaker 1: taken from him. Yeah, just rides to watch him right
Speaker 1: off on a bicycle. Just he's chalking up to him. Man,
Speaker 1: give me that killing more to back snatcher, taking people's candies,
Speaker 1: taking people's candy all the way said the image that
Speaker 1: I'm getting, it's really less messing me up. The theater
Speaker 1: of the mind, the beach cruise, They're like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: somebody please do a Jim Chab with Kellen Moore's face
Speaker 1: on depot is like, wow, Now I don't even want
Speaker 1: to talk about anything the rest of the show. I
Speaker 1: feel like that's that's about as good as it's gonna get.
Speaker 1: Let's keep talking about Kellen Moore. Though. Did you guys
Speaker 1: hear what Troy Yakman had to say about mister Moren
Speaker 1: what he's been doing. Yes, pretty high praise from one
Speaker 1: Troyan Robs. You get a chance to look at it,
Speaker 1: Yeah I did. My first thought was, well, thanks, Troy,
Speaker 1: Kellen's gone. He's gone next year. What did he say, Well,
Speaker 1: you sent it to me. I didn't see him. He
Speaker 1: basically just compared it to his time with North Turner,
Speaker 1: where they just I mean they're on a waveles and
Speaker 1: the communication is so good and just on top of
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a bag snatcher. That's what Troy basically said, like,
Speaker 1: he's you know, they used so many different looks and
Speaker 1: so many different formations and they run a lot of
Speaker 1: great stuff. Basically just gave him as high praise as
Speaker 1: I've heard anybody give him so far this season, There's
Speaker 1: been a lot of high praise. So when a Hall
Speaker 1: of Famer says that, I mean people take goaks of
Speaker 1: stuff like that, I mean he's He's gonna get some
Speaker 1: attention when the season is over. There's no doubt about that.
Speaker 1: There are I already saw a graphic where he was
Speaker 1: like the number two candidate for the Raiders job already.
Speaker 1: I mean, he was already on a list for that,
Speaker 1: and now that would be at the end of the year.
Speaker 1: That wouldn't be anytime soon. But basically, the best thing
Speaker 1: that Troy aik Been ultimately said was talking about Dak
Speaker 1: Prescott in the relationship that those two guys have and
Speaker 1: how they're in lock step. That was the way that
Speaker 1: he put it. Those guys are in lock step together.
Speaker 1: And he also related it back to them being teammates
Speaker 1: and having that camaraderie as a quarterback room. And of
Speaker 1: course Kellen was there when Dak was drafted and then
Speaker 1: they had kind of the quarterback battle together and Dak
Speaker 1: ultimately ended up as the starter. But Troy says that
Speaker 1: that works in Kellen Moore's favor. So I ask you,
Speaker 1: as a former quarterback, Isaiah, does that play a bigger
Speaker 1: role than I think people give credit for. That's really interesting.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure I've never really had that dynamic, that
Speaker 1: relationship going from player to coach. There's a level of
Speaker 1: respect that comes from being with playing competing with somebody. Um,
Speaker 1: when you're in the same room with somebody competing, there's
Speaker 1: just that there's a respect in a regard for the
Speaker 1: individual that you just can't walk off the street and
Speaker 1: get hired and come just attained from Dak Prescott. So
Speaker 1: Dak looks at him, I was assumed differently than he
Speaker 1: looks at any other coach, simply because they have that
Speaker 1: understanding of what they both put in during their time
Speaker 1: ass players and now retrospect. He's now looking back at
Speaker 1: him as a coach now, and I would imagine they
Speaker 1: just they just have that understanding. And like I said,
Speaker 1: that's just a regarding respect. I think that's that's different.
Speaker 1: I've never had that. That's pretty cool. They became close
Speaker 1: when Dak was you know, Kellen. That was Kellen's opportunity
Speaker 1: and he got hurt in training camp and they became
Speaker 1: close that year and he became a real sounding board
Speaker 1: for Dak. I'd say Mark Sanchez did as well. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean that that bond formed early on and before
Speaker 1: he was ever a coach. You know. No, you know what.
Speaker 1: One of the things that I have, and going back
Speaker 1: to Troy Aikman and the compliment that he gave them,
Speaker 1: and one of the things that I've always been envious
Speaker 1: of is the fraternity of football players. I don't care
Speaker 1: if you are played in the league back in the fifties,
Speaker 1: they're playing right now. There's a common respect amongst guys
Speaker 1: that played the game. And so when a guy makes
Speaker 1: especially obviously Hall of Famer, gives you a compliment like that,
Speaker 1: obviously that's got to resonate with you, especially when he's
Speaker 1: talking about North Turners and zampeezis like, these are the
Speaker 1: one of the greats of the game. And I just
Speaker 1: feel as though, and I thought, also just up to
Speaker 1: make Shan don't forget this is when he was talking
Speaker 1: about Jason Garrett playing with Garrett and the rumors that
Speaker 1: Garrett would maybe someday being off. It's a coordinating and
Speaker 1: he's like, well, I don't want to sacrifice my good years,
Speaker 1: but that it's just talked about the competitive nature of
Speaker 1: guys back then and the way that they looked at
Speaker 1: the game and how they respected the guys that coached them,
Speaker 1: and how that's changed now and where guys are much younger,
Speaker 1: they're coming straight from off of the practice field going
Speaker 1: into coaching, and that's just, you know, a great dynamic
Speaker 1: to see that Dak has received that and they have
Speaker 1: the bond that they do. I just hope that no
Speaker 1: matter what Kellen Moore does with the success that he has,
Speaker 1: that he continues on that trajectory, and if he does
Speaker 1: leave here, I hope that everybody's taken every note digitally
Speaker 1: that he's gonna leave, so that his bag doesn't leave
Speaker 1: with him. We could keep the bag. He keep the
Speaker 1: bag at home. That's such a sad way to think
Speaker 1: of it, though. It's like every time something goes well
Speaker 1: for either one of these coordinators, for Kellen Moore, Dan Quinn,
Speaker 1: it's like, man, but I don't want them to leave.
Speaker 1: I don't want them where it is, but it is.
Speaker 1: That's the that's the business of the NFL. That's how
Speaker 1: it happens. Yeah, I mean that's it's the same thing
Speaker 1: with players. We're not gonna be to keep everybody. I mean,
Speaker 1: obviously we're waiting on Michael Gallant to come back, and
Speaker 1: I wish this was a game that Michael Gallant was
Speaker 1: back for. Oh I agree this because it would be
Speaker 1: the Michael Gallant the game. But you know, obviously, with
Speaker 1: his value and the and the way that I love
Speaker 1: Mike Gee, we might be may not be able to
Speaker 1: keep him, may not be able to keep Wilson. We
Speaker 1: might be able to keep Randy Gregory. I mean this obviously,
Speaker 1: guys leave, and so look, if that happens to us
Speaker 1: at the end of the year with Kellen Moore is
Speaker 1: going to be huge. But they're still chasing the ultimate
Speaker 1: prize right now, and that's all you can ask for
Speaker 1: at the moment. I got to try and get up
Speaker 1: there and and get it done and then hey, wherever
Speaker 1: you guys go, you did the job right, get that ring.
Speaker 1: Long way to go until we get there, But they're
Speaker 1: on the way at the moment, and they've got a
Speaker 1: fun one. What's tomorrow con Sunday? What's tomorrow Tomorrow? Tomorrow's
Speaker 1: say it with your chess Friday, sir. We've got a
Speaker 1: fun game coming up tomorrow. We've also got a Draft
Speaker 1: Kings insider segment that we've got to put together tomorrow,
Speaker 1: and we've got our guest pickers tomorrow, so be sure
Speaker 1: is get ready. Right in the middle of a second segment,
