So McCray and I 12 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: get to ride this thing. It's a kool Aid free show, 13 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: so we don't have to worry about Danny coming in here, 14 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: coming in here, Danny telling us, just pouring us all 15 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: that's making us want to drink it. So we're good. Yes, 16 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: we are good on that. The Cowboys getting ready for 17 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: Sunday Night football, and it looks more and more Danny 18 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: like rookie quarterback Ben d Nucci is going to get 19 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 1: the start. Andy Dalton has not practiced, and it's Wednesday, 20 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: this is installed day and Mike McCarthy's press conference that 21 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,040 Speaker 1: they said he you know, maybe if Andy Dalton can 22 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,479 Speaker 1: get something towards the end of the week. But I'm 23 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 1: just I just keep going back to looking at the hip. Okay, 24 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: I'm not a doctor. All I can do is just 25 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 1: go by what I see. It just looks so vicious 26 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: that I would be surprised if Andy Dalton is there. 27 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: And then from what they're telling us, the information they're 28 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 1: giving us, and we know Mike McCarthy is guarding, it 29 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: just sounds more and more to me like it's gonna 30 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: be Ben d Nucci show to run on Sunday. Then yeah, 31 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: you know, like you said, McCarthy is a little guardss. 32 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: So we never really know. And sometimes the hit can 33 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: look worse than it is, or sometimes that hit can 34 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: be just as bad as it looks. So it's really 35 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 1: up to the doctors and how Andy Dalton feels. But 36 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 1: I believe that if he does pass protocol that he 37 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: still will be out there as long as he practices 38 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: on Saturday. I mean, with the state that the team 39 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: is in, I don't see him holding him out if 40 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: he's available to play, just because he wasn't able to install. 41 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: He's a veteran guy, and I think he'll be able 42 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: to pick up some of the stuff that they put 43 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: in and Kellen Moore and be able to adjust on 44 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: the fly if he's able to get in there at 45 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 1: the last minute. Well, I look at this game for 46 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton, and it's one thing we know Jim Jim 47 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: Schwartz is gonna do. It's gonna bring pressure. And I 48 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: was sitting here looking at sack leaders and just checking 49 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 1: my notes here. Philadelphia is twenty is number four in 50 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: the league in sacks with twenty four. So Washington was 51 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: getting after the Cowboys and they got six sacks. So 52 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: Philadelphia is gonna bring this heat. And look, I think 53 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: whether it's d Nucci or Andy Dalton, the kitchen sink 54 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 1: is coming here. Because we also um know that there's 55 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,679 Speaker 1: gonna be another different offensive line combination, because Mike McCarthy 56 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 1: is expecting Zach Martin backhau. This is this is just 57 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 1: a really, really tough matchup for the Cowboys and they 58 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: simply cannot afford to have any breakdowns and any of 59 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: the mistakes that they've made in the past offensively or 60 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: defensively to try and win this football game. I know 61 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: Phillies two four and one, but their strength goes right 62 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: against some of the Cowboys weaknesses. Yeah right, and Phillies 63 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: two four on one, but they they've had some close 64 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: losses to some to some pretty good teams. I'm glad that. Yeah, 65 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: so I'm glad. I'm glad that Zack Martin is coming back. 66 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: Hopefully he can he can give us a little bit 67 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: of a little bit of plug. With the leaks that 68 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: we have on the offensive line, we all know that 69 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: that that we're getting heated up and if the Nucie 70 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: is out, there is going to be a show where 71 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: they are bringing people from the left, the right, the 72 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: middle trying to confuse this guy and get some interceptions. 73 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: So one again, it will be up to Kelly Moore 74 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: to come up with a game plan that fits the 75 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: roster that he currently has. Now, I would expect to 76 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: see a lot of tight end help maybe a tight 77 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: end playing fullback, a lot of Zeke and Polish stand 78 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: in the help block just so they can show up 79 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: this offensive line and give you know, give the news 80 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: Yard Andy Dalton some time back there so they can 81 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: make you know, at least at least a ten or 82 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: fifteen yard through. I know he won't have that much 83 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: time back there, but uh, you know, I expect Kelly 84 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 1: more to justin be able to help him just a 85 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: little bit. I don't have that much confidence in the 86 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: in the office, I mean in the in the running game, 87 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: just because what I saw last week. Hopefully we can 88 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: get something going. We tried to focus on the last week, 89 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 1: but it just didn't work for us. So maybe that 90 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 1: was just the off week and was Zach Barton coming back. 91 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 1: We'll be able to get that thing on the road, 92 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: but we are really going to need our run game 93 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: this time. It's going to be challenging. And then, uh, 94 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: John Clark works for NBC Sports Philadephia. I've known John 95 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: for for a long time and and he loves to 96 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: send me tweets and copying me on them. And so 97 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 1: he's hit me a tweet about Darius Slayton and his 98 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: numbers against Amari Cooper, and so he's already he's already 99 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: claiming that that Slayton's out of this football game here. 100 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: And then he posted about how Jalen Raiger, their first 101 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: round draft pick out of TC, you should be ready 102 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: to go, and that you'll see him make his debut 103 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: against his hometown Dallas Cowboys. And of course I can 104 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,799 Speaker 1: tell you this, Jalen Raiger is a fast guy. Think 105 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 1: of Deshaun Jackson when he was young. That's what Jalen 106 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: Raiger can bring you in terms of an offensive weapon, 107 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: a guy who can run past you. So, Philadelphia, the 108 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: fans are at least with me, the reporters and the 109 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: folks that they're filling their oats and they're giving me 110 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: the business. After we finish the players lounge, I've got 111 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: to go do a interview for NBC Sports Philly, and 112 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: so I'm going to hear the business once again here. 113 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: So Philadephiopole just feeling real confident about Sunday Night football 114 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: as they get ready to host a Dallas count I mean, 115 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: I mean, why not you just said that They got 116 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 1: to think of it this way. They got Rager, who 117 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: has speed, which is a problem of any any receiver. 118 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: Has been a problem for our defense. I see that 119 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: Alshon Jeffery is possibly going to be ready, which makes 120 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: it another problem for our defense. Miles Sanders is trying 121 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: as hardest to get back on there so he can 122 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 1: fight to have a career day, which makes that another 123 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: problem for our defense. And Carson Wentz is playing better, 124 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 1: you know, better than Actually, you don't really have to 125 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: play that good, you know, to look good against our defense. 126 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: So Carson Wentz come out there and he plays eighty 127 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: percent of his potential. We're gonna have some issues. So hopefully, 128 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: you know, maybe the changes that we're making that will 129 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: get to uh, you know later in the show will help. 130 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: Or maybe these guys will figure out a way to 131 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: keep their eyes right and and prevent the deep ball 132 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: from coming and things will change. But I don't have 133 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 1: any confidence in that, So I just think it's gonna 134 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: be a big day for the Philly offense. I'll say 135 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 1: this about Miles Sanders. This is a this is a 136 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: game that if I'm the head coach Doug Peterson, I 137 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: don't play him. I mean I literally don't, because he's 138 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: he's all you know, he missed the first game of 139 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: the year already. I mean, he's dealt with issues. I 140 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: don't know if he was the first game, but he's missed. 141 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: He's missed other games earlier in yere But anyway, he's 142 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: dealt all off, I should go back, and then during 143 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: training camp he was dealing with injuries here, so he's 144 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: dealt with some stuff. You know, all season long. This 145 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: is not a game I would play my best running back. 146 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: Because if you're Philadelphia at this point in time, if 147 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: you just look at this division, you're you should win 148 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: this thing right now. Okay, based on the injuries that 149 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have going on, forty percent of their salary 150 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: cap is out, you know this division is theirs. I mean, 151 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: if you're going to Vegas right now and you're putting 152 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: some chips on eighteen to win the nfcas it should 153 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: be Philadelphia. And if I'm head coach Doug Peterson, I'm 154 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: trying to save Miles Sanders for other games. And this 155 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: is where I'll let Boston Scott and some other dudes 156 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: roll out here, because, as you said, you can, you 157 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: can win this thing, and if you're getting your receivers back, 158 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: you want to throw on the Cowboys defense all day long, 159 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: and running the football is not going to be hard 160 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: because nobody gives up more yardage than the Dallas Cowboys. 161 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: They're dead last in the league when it comes to 162 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: giving up the run. They give up one hundred and 163 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: seventy two yards a per game. So we'll see, we'll see. 164 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: But I tell you I don't expect Sanders to be 165 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: out there. I really don't because this is one of 166 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: those all right, go ahead, Well look listen. I'm hopeful 167 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: because he's my starting running back on my fantasy football team. Also, 168 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure that he can also he also sees the 169 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: same thing that we see. Like we talked about yesterday, 170 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: this is the game that you want to play if 171 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,679 Speaker 1: you want to get on track. I know he had 172 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: he had a knee injury, so I'm not sure you 173 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: know how serious it was. I didn't. I didn't really 174 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: get to read up on it. But if it's not 175 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: a hamstring or something, you know, soft tissue injury, I 176 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: think he'll be out there. And uh and I know 177 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: you say that that Philly should should win this thing, 178 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: but I go back to Washington and if ye possibly 179 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: they don't go for two, I think two weeks ago 180 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: they could be sitting there with three and five. So 181 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: I mean I think Washington will we'll be able to 182 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: compete with Philly. You know, if they continue to get better, 183 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: the defense shows up, you know, and they take advantage 184 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 1: of some of the weaker games on their schedule. I 185 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 1: think that it'll be between Washington and Philly at the 186 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 1: end of the season. So I wouldn't I wouldn't speak 187 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: so fast to say that Philly's gonna wrap us on up. 188 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 1: Washington beat Philly to start the season, so they have 189 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 1: that in their back pocket. But I just think it's 190 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: Philly starts to get some of their reinforcements back. I 191 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 1: just think they're a better football team when I look 192 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: at the games against Pittsburgh and Baltimore which they were down. 193 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: They were down double digits in these games, and they 194 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: came back and made these games the contest that went 195 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: down into the final final two minutes of the game. 196 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: So I just I just think overall, they still have 197 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: enough guys over there who've won a championship, and I 198 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 1: just think that they'll end up being a better football team. 199 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: I just don't. I don't think washing Shington is gonna 200 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: have enough. But that's just me and this is why 201 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: we play the games. But but at this point in time, 202 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: I'm definitely, you know, unlike Bury Church, I'm definitely looking 203 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 1: at the Cowboys and saying I don't see them getting 204 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 1: it done because they have not been able to fix 205 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: the multitude of issues that they have. You know, they 206 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: have not had a cohesive offensive line. They are jet 207 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: lasts in turning over the football. They have yet to 208 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: do that. They've had a turnover every game since the 209 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: first one against the Rams. There were no turnovers. Since then. 210 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: It's been nothing but downhill. And now you're talking about 211 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: having to play start a third different quarterback. I mean, 212 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: there's so many things going against the Cowboys, and you 213 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: can't stop the run, you can't start the pass. Yeah, 214 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: it's a problem. And I'm gonna stick by what I 215 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 1: said about Bill. Bill Parcels used to set. All I 216 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: can go by is what I see. And until I 217 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: see the Cowboys beat a team that has a win, 218 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: because the two teams they beat were win lists, you know, 219 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard to pick them. And this game 220 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: is going to be at Philadelphia on Sunday Night Football, 221 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: and I just think Philadelphia. You know, they're two and four, 222 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:10,319 Speaker 1: But I see them starting to get a little bit better. 223 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 1: I see them starting to get that way. And they've 224 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: had as many offensive line issues at the Cowboys. But 225 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: but I'll say this, Danny and I don't know how 226 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: many Philly games you've watched this year. They're doing something 227 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys are not showing us that they've got. 228 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 1: Will you know this team has not shown us the 229 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: past three games that they've got. Will you know the 230 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 1: Cleveland game, they didn't show it to us. The Giant game, Okay, 231 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: you came back and you won that, but was a 232 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,599 Speaker 1: winless Giants team. What we saw against Washington, what we 233 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: saw against Arizona, you know, we didn't see the kind 234 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: of will and the kind of guts that you need 235 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 1: to win. Everson Griffin, you know, let's just dive into him. 236 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: They traded Everson Griffin, the defensive end to the Detroit 237 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: lines for six round draft pick that it's conditional, so 238 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: it could move up to a fifth. I don't know 239 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: what the determining factors are there yet, but that's the 240 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: message now. Mike McCarthy spun it that they're gonna give 241 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: some snaps to Dorian's Armstrong. They've now got Randy Gregory 242 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: back that Randy Gregory needs to play, and I'm fine 243 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 1: with it. Honestly, I'm fine with Everson Griffin. In my opinion. 244 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: This is why I hate about us not being able 245 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: to be in the locker room this year because of Covid. 246 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: I didn't see the buying. I didn't hear the buy 247 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: in from him about being on this defensive and so 248 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: this season, in my opinion, is lost. This team is 249 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: not going to do what we thought it would do, 250 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: which I said eleven and five and making a deep 251 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: playoff run. That's not going to happen. So you might 252 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,719 Speaker 1: as well go ahead and get some picks, because if 253 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: you are drafting in the top ten in every round, 254 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: you want as many of these picks as you can 255 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 1: possibly get. My pick listen, I can't imagine how Griffin felt. 256 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 1: Right he came here, and he felt the same way 257 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: that every analyst, every reporter, every commentator felt about the Cowboys, 258 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 1: you know, being a contender, having all these pass rushers, 259 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: having all these weapons on offense, so giving the pass rushers, 260 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 1: you know, the time to get back there and rush 261 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: because you assume that we were going to be up 262 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 1: and running gun offense and teams are going to be trailing. 263 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: And then you get here and it's the exact opposite. 264 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: And then on top of that, you probably left a 265 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: place where you believed in the coaches and you had 266 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: some relationship with those guys and you're trusting in what 267 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: they were doing. And then you got here and you're 268 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 1: on a young team, and then you get you get 269 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: some coaching that you're like, you're looking at You're like, 270 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: I don't know what you guys are teaching. These guys 271 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 1: don't hustle. This isn't where I left. What am I 272 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: doing here? So, I mean, I can almost understand why 273 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 1: the buy in didn't work, especially when you see him 274 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 1: talking about, Man, look, this is different. I'm standing up, rushing, 275 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: I'm trying to learn this stuff, and this is just 276 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: not what I'm comfortable doing. It just doesn't seem like 277 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: he liked it from the day that he walked in 278 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: the building. So I can imagine that he was ready 279 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 1: to get up out of here. So, you know, I 280 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 1: understand that. And Mike McCarthy, he scares me when he 281 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 1: says what he makes me think when he says, you know, 282 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: he wants to see some younger guys play. I wonder 283 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 1: if that's throughout the whole team, or is it is 284 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: that just specifically the the line, Because once you hear 285 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: that throughout the whole team, it sounds like you're scrapped 286 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: in the season and you're building for the future. Is 287 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: that a bad thing? I mean, at this point in time, 288 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: if we're just going to sit up here and be 289 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: honest about the type of injuries that you suffered and 290 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: the kind of holes that you have and the reinforcements 291 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: that are not exactly coming back, is that a bad thing. 292 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: Let's take a break and let's dive into that. So 293 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 1: Everson Griffin has gone, there's two more pinning moves that 294 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: we've heard about. Let's dive into that as the Cowboys 295 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: possibly are trying to look towards twenty twenty one.

When 340 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 1: you see it in person and you see how big 341 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: these massive animals are and how they get after it, 342 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: it's a good show. I ended up taking my h 343 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: I took my daughter last year to the four worstok 344 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 1: show on radio. And she never been to watch the bulls. 345 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: She had what she was little, but this time she 346 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 1: actually paid some attention and she was locked in. Bro 347 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: I mean, Danny, she was just boo. I mean, you know, 348 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: her eyes were you know, usually take kids to do 349 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: events and they're looking here and there and they want 350 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 1: to go do this that she was locked in watching 351 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: those bulls. So is it is a show. So I 352 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 1: would definitely say for the fans of bull riding, you 353 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 1: want to go. If you've never been and you thought 354 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 1: about going, it's definitely worth your time. And these these 355 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: bull riders are some of the toughest athletes that you 356 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 1: will ever meet. In a bunch of these guys can't 357 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: get life insurance or health insurance either. Man. It's it's uh, 358 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: it's challenging the premiums on these guys because of the 359 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 1: kind of broken bones they take. It's uh, it's intense, man, 360 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 1: it is totally. Man. I watched the show called Yellowstone 361 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: where they have a bull ride on there and uh, 362 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: if that is any any true indication or example of 363 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: what goes on, you know, for them in their life 364 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: and their injuries and the stuff that they risk that 365 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: is absolutely crazy and much respect to them, but I 366 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: would never I'm from Houston, so I've seen bull riding before, 367 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,959 Speaker 1: but you know, I had never really focused on it 368 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: and did any research to see how how how it was, 369 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: like what type of effect they had on those guys. 370 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 1: And uh, it seems it seems pretty rough. It's good, 371 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, man, it's it's and they're you know 372 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 1: what I love about them as athletes, They're they're open books. 373 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: Many they'll let they'll let you come and talk to 374 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: them and they'll talk backstay. I mean, they're great. So 375 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:03,919 Speaker 1: so they do a good job of pulling you in. 376 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: I remember Real Sports did a great little xbosame um 377 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: with Brazilian bull riders and and how good they are 378 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 1: and and just you know their challenges and you know, 379 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 1: for a lot of these guys, you're trying to get 380 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: out of poverty. You're like, this is I mean, you know, 381 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 1: because there's gotta be a little danger in you anyway 382 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: they want to do this, And um, I've always felt 383 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: that you know, sports like boxing and in sports like 384 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: you know, bull riding, where you're you're sitting here man, 385 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: and you're risking you know, you basically, put your livelihood 386 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: out here, your life out here. Um, there's got to 387 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: be something in you that's driving you. Man. You know, 388 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: m M and boxing man. You know these are you 389 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 1: know you never see anybody well from Beverly Hills, California, 390 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: from from the Hamptons in New York. You know, these 391 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 1: are folks that are coming from some tough, tough circumstances. 392 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 1: There's some tough arm brands um in these sports man, 393 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: And don't let it listen, Listeners, don't let new He 394 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: fool y'all. I'm sure they are open books and they'll 395 00:19:58,400 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 1: let people come talk to them. But new He is 396 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: He's a Dallas legend, alright, so they probably won't be 397 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: giving y'all the same access that Knew He knew He 398 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,479 Speaker 1: the Great gets, But I'm sure you may be able 399 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 1: to get an autograph or something. Look, they're great, man, 400 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I absolutely said. I love them 401 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 1: as athletes to cover, they are great. The Cowboys trade 402 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: Everson Griffin, so so that was step one. And Tom 403 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: Palaceero of NFL Network says that your favorite corner Warley, 404 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: they're Warley, and your favorite tackle don Terry Poe that 405 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 1: these two guys will be either traded or released. Mike 406 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: McCarthy asked today will they be at practice? He said 407 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: he didn't want to speak about it. Calvin Watkinson the 408 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,199 Speaker 1: Dallas One News tweeting that Worley and Poe were not 409 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: at practice. Also, Andy Dalton not at practice today. Safety 410 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: Xavier Wood's not at practice today. I would doubt anybody's 411 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: trading for Warley or Poe. I can't see why anyone would. 412 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 1: But you're talking about three players now that are probably 413 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: going to be gone from the roster by the end 414 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: of the day. Danny, what message does it sit? Uh, 415 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 1: it's it's a message that you know, based on your performance, 416 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,719 Speaker 1: you could be next. You know, with the exception of 417 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: you know guys like uh, you know d law and 418 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: and Crawford and those guys who have contracted money and 419 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: they have money tied up in But you young guys, 420 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: are you guys on those one year deals? You know, 421 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: if you don't step your play up, then you probably 422 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 1: won't be on this team moving forward. Um. So I 423 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 1: think it's a good sign. I think it's leaning more 424 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: towards what you've said, the players versus the coaches. Which 425 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: one are they gonna are they are they gonna pick 426 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 1: And it seems like so far we're picking up picking 427 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: the coaches. So if I was, if I'm one of 428 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 1: those players, I'll probably be worried. And that's including my 429 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 1: guy Xavier Woods, um, you know, and he's missing practice 430 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: to they But you know, like we talked about this 431 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: off the show, I've seen some clips of this guy 432 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: that that makes me wonder what's really going on with 433 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 1: him because usually in your contract year, it's usually your 434 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 1: best year and give you know, you give max effort 435 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 1: and you stand out on tape, and this is this 436 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,880 Speaker 1: is kind of kind of the opposite for this guy. 437 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: But and then based off last year like he had, 438 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: I thought he had a good season. Last year. I 439 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,919 Speaker 1: thought he played hard, thought he made some tackles. I 440 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: thought he made some plays. He looked like a like 441 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,719 Speaker 1: a like a good safety that that was coming up. 442 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: And and this year just it's just a total opposite. 443 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: So I think a lot of these guys on the 444 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: watch list, I'll be one of the first to admit 445 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:31,959 Speaker 1: that I was expecting Woods, Jordan Lewis, and cheetah Awoosian 446 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: to have some really good years because they all want 447 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: to get paid I mean, this is how professional football works. 448 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: Your final year, you want to make sure you're balling 449 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: out so you can get paid. I e. By Ron 450 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: Jones last year. I E. Amari Cooper last year. You 451 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 1: know you want to make it, get Dak Prescott. You 452 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 1: know you want to make sure when it's money time 453 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: that you were out there. I remember DeMarco Murray and 454 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: and it was interesting in his career he had dealt 455 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: with games where he missed time. And you know, his 456 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: last year even I think he was I don't know 457 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 1: if it was a thumb or hand or it was 458 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: something on. I mean he broke dude, ran out there, 459 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 1: he was out there and it was the NFL Offensive 460 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: Player of the Year, cashed in, got a big deal 461 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 1: of Philadelphia. I mean you know that last year, man, 462 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:15,120 Speaker 1: you were out there rolling and to see, um, these 463 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: three cornerbacks, these three at say defensive back not turn 464 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 1: it up. It's been surprising. It's been surprising. Cheeto Woozia 465 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: is expected to be back this week as they take 466 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 1: on the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday and Night Football. And Cheeto, 467 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 1: by the way, I think Cheeto leads the team and 468 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 1: interceptions right with one hadn't playing. Uh, it's listen, listen, 469 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: Like what we were watching and what we were expecting 470 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: from these players. I think we were watching the Christoh 471 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 1: Shard effect. I think he had a lot to do 472 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: with how they were playing and how they looked when 473 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: they were out there. And I think the same thing 474 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: with Marionetta leaving and how our defensive line looks is 475 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: the same effect that that they We're seeing Christia shar leaving. 476 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 1: Within this secondary, I think we're seeing a big drop 477 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: off and uh, we're going to need to do something different. 478 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: That That's why I was leaning more forward. They should 479 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,159 Speaker 1: pick the players over the coaches at the end of 480 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,680 Speaker 1: the season, but you know it's early and then making 481 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 1: examples of guys I believe, so we'll see how it 482 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: really plays out at the end of the season. Jerry 483 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: Jones said it on his radio show and Danny, I 484 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: don't know if you heard it, but but it's worth 485 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: listening to um. When he spoke on one O five 486 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 1: three the fans, he told you he sold on McCarthy 487 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: and the McCarthy was his kind of guy. He's got 488 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: his he's got his man, and because of everything they're 489 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 1: going through, he thinks McCarthy is the right guy that 490 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: you want to have in that foxhole. Jerry always talks 491 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,199 Speaker 1: about the foxhole kind of thing. So to me, he 492 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 1: let it be known it's going to be McCarthy. Oh yeah, 493 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: you're not talking about him though, and it's not going 494 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: to be these players. So so I think that to me. 495 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: And he spoke on the show too about we're going 496 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 1: you know, he said we got to stop the run, 497 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: and he to Don Terry Pope being gone, um and 498 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: and so off that show. You trade Everson Griffin, Poe's 499 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: about to go, Warley is about to go here. And 500 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: I just think that at the end of the year, 501 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 1: they're going to look and they're going to take They're 502 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: going to say goodbye to some players who are already 503 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,479 Speaker 1: going to be free agents, like a Tyrone Crawford. But 504 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna go in here and maybe have to take 505 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, one or two guys with a big 506 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: contract who aren't buying in, okay, And that's that's the 507 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,679 Speaker 1: tough thing you know right now is who all is 508 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: and is it buying in? And they'll make some moves, 509 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: but they're going to side with the coaches. I don't 510 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: know if this results of Mike Nolan being back, Yeah, 511 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: I don't know about that, um, but if he wants to, 512 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,400 Speaker 1: and I'll say this, if you're sold on Mike McCarthy, 513 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: and this is where Mike McCarthy has to do that 514 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett thing where remember Jason Garrett kept selling Scott 515 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 1: Lenahan until he couldn't anymore, but he rode with him 516 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: as long as he could. So if you're like, if 517 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: you're Mike McCarthy, you want to keep riding with Mike Nolan, 518 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: then you're gonna have to convince Jerry, Hey, we need 519 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: to convert two A three four. We need to play 520 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 1: more of this. We need to get these guys here 521 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: dot dot dot dot dot. And if they can convince 522 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 1: convince Jerry that it's the players and it's these dudes 523 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 1: won't buy in, then they got an excellent shot to 524 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: have this thing come back. Now. I do think we'll 525 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: see some defensive assistant get got Like I said, I 526 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 1: expect one of these secondary coaches, because that's that's usually 527 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,439 Speaker 1: the way it happened. Somebody got to die, you know, 528 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: somebody got to get thrown off the boat. I mean, 529 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: that's how it happens in professional sports. Somebody gonna go, um, 530 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 1: see it was him, you know, listen, it's like it's 531 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: likely to happen. What I believe is like the tone 532 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: I didn't hear Jerry, you know, talk about Mike McCarthy, 533 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: But I know he's been all in on Mike McCarthy 534 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 1: since he got here. And I don't think they will 535 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: make a one eighty and get rid of them at 536 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: the end of the year, you know, after one season. 537 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,360 Speaker 1: But you know, like I love Mike McCarthy versus I'm 538 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: okay with Mike Nolan. I think that says a lot, uh, 539 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 1: you know, heading into the end of the season. And 540 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,239 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily think it's about buying n Like so 541 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 1: when you say, like when we talk about going from 542 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: three to four to four three and people, you know, 543 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: I guess they assume that it's something that's easy for 544 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: these players to do, especially the interior alignment that was 545 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,199 Speaker 1: a totally different game. Like I give you example of 546 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: Glenn Dorsey and Tyson Jackson, both top five picks when 547 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: I was at LSU, both coming out of a four 548 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: three defense, and they both got drafted teams that were 549 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 1: running the three four and then you didn't hear about 550 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 1: them anymore because it's not the same defense. It's it's 551 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 1: it's very hard to go from being a four three 552 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 1: defensive end or three technique in a four to three 553 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: to playing, uh, you know inside, you know if if 554 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: you if you're a defensive vent like they did Tyson Jackson, 555 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: they moved him inside and put an outside line back 556 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 1: outside him. He had to learn something totally different and 557 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: it didn't really paying out for him, you know how 558 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: we expected him when he was playing at LSU. So 559 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: those things are different. That's why you see Everson Griffin 560 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: and DeMarcus Lawrence. I believe you see some drop off 561 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: in there because it's a totally different game and uh, 562 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,360 Speaker 1: maybe they need to go to a coach that that 563 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 1: that puts these guys in position, you know, to make 564 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: those plays like they did in the past. I really 565 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,199 Speaker 1: still don't understand why you have DeMarcus Lawrence standing up 566 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,199 Speaker 1: when you know his his best game has come from 567 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: when he has his hand in the ground and he's 568 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: just rushing and and doing games on the defensive line 569 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: like when Mary Nelly was here. I'll say this could 570 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 1: tank in a in a three four standing up as 571 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 1: an outside linebacker. Could it help him? Um? Could he? 572 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: Could he make the chance? Yes? He can. I watched 573 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 1: Greg Ellis do it, and I go back and look 574 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: at the career of Derrek Thomas, fantastic player out of Alabama, 575 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: and Derrek Thomas his numbers when he was standing up 576 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: versus his numbers playing with his hand down. I mean 577 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: they were drastically different. Um, the three four defense can definitely. Um, 578 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: you know if you have pass rushing town which which 579 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: which you know Lawrence has just in Marcus wear, another 580 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: guy who went from hand hand down to hand up 581 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: and you know, extended his career and made him a 582 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: whole lot better. And even he'll tell you, man, give 583 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: me the stand up all day long. So I don't 584 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: think that Tank Lawrence is a guy who cannot adapt 585 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: to tow it. I think that's a different animal. That's 586 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 1: a different animal. When you talk about when you talk 587 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: about de Marcus wearing Tank Lawred, de Marcuts wear is 588 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: built different de Marcus wearing with six five, you know, slim, muscular, 589 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: you know, he's his explosiveness out of the two point stands. 590 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: If you've ever watched him at practice or work on 591 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: his getoffs, totally different than anybody that we have on 592 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: the team. So him him baking that adjustment to going 593 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: from hand down to hand up is totally different. I 594 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: don't believe. I don't say that that Tak Lawrence can't. 595 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: But if you're gonna pay a guy one hundred million 596 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: dollars to be productive in a four to three defense, 597 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: when you've seen him make all these plays in that, 598 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: I think it's difficult for you to say, all right, well, 599 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: now go ahead and do the three four and just 600 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: act like it's just that easy for him to change, 601 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: you know. So, so you either give Mike Nolan another year, 602 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: you know, to implement the three to four and think 603 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 1: that that's gonna change everything, or you bring a guy 604 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: in who has a defense that fits the players that 605 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: are already here stay there. Then maybe that's the conversation 606 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:22,479 Speaker 1: that you have to have as an organization. Can we 607 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 1: can you know, do we continue to can we make 608 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: this change in three four and make take a better player? 609 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: Or do we move on? I mean, these are the 610 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: questions you have to ask yourself. Um, in my opinion, 611 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: as I said, I think he can make the change 612 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: you've got to get and obviously your bigger pieces are 613 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: going to be upfront. You know, you got to get 614 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: yourself a legitimate nose tackle and get some bigger guys 615 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: at the defensive tackle spot so you can allow your 616 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: linebackers to get there. But it's a conversation that you've 617 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: got to have if you're going to choose Mike Nolan 618 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: and give him what he wants, you know, because it's 619 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: going clue. It's gonna affect one of your best players. 620 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: But you got to ask yourself, what do you want 621 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 1: to do. These are the tough decisions you have to 622 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: make as an organization. And and then and then I'll 623 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 1: tell I'll tell you this too when when we when 624 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: we speak and drop off from the D line in 625 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: different schemes. Uh, if you watch how we played in 626 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: the past room with Marionelli's defense running out of fourty three, 627 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 1: we probably ran games on seventy percent of the snaps, 628 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: which is et stunts, uh, loops and and and spikes 629 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: and all types of stuff that that de Marcus were. 630 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: I mean that de Marcus Lawrence was great. That he 631 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: would he would started in the in the D gap 632 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: and shoot down to the A gap or you know, 633 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: they would take advantage and stuff like that, and that's 634 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: some stuff that I don't think we're seeing as much 635 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: of now, and I think that is also, you know, 636 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: hindering his production as well, because you know where he's 637 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: gonna line up at most of the time, he's gonna 638 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 1: line up right there at the left end, and he's 639 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: gonna rush over over the right tackle. There is no, no, 640 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: no complexity to to our rush in our scheme and 641 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: our games, and I think that's where you're seeing the 642 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: big drop off as well. Well, look, now this comes 643 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: back to what McCarthy said and what McCarthy has done. 644 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy sat at press conference and he said many 645 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: times it's players over scheme, but we're not seeing that 646 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball. That's what I said. 647 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: This is the organizational question that these guys got to 648 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 1: get into a room and figure out. So, hey, Mike 649 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: nolan's it gonna be your scheme or is it gonna 650 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 1: be the players? And if you choose the players, do 651 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: you have enough of these good players to say we'll 652 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: scrap our scheme and we'll go with those guys. I 653 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: thought Bucky was on it was Bucky Brooks or somebody 654 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: had spoken about how the scheme that they were running 655 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: before was a Marinelli These were Marionelli type of guys. 656 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 1: These were the guys that he wanted who were fitting 657 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 1: into what he wanted to do. That's one reason why T. J. 658 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: Watt was not drafting Taco Charlton was taken over him 659 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: because Marinelli wanted guys that fit his scheme. That Jalen 660 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: Smith is more of a Marinelli guys guy, and Tank Lawrence, 661 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: So Danny, this may be unpopular, but they got asked themselves. 662 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: You got two dudes you've given big money to and 663 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: and jay Lew Smith was about sixty three million dollars 664 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: deal he signed. Take Lawrence your largest contracted cowboy history 665 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: that he signed. Or these guys the guys you want 666 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 1: going forward if you decide that Mike Knowling is is 667 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: going to have his way tough questions. I mean, I 668 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 1: mean not not not only those two, I mean Vandersch 669 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: as well was drafted to play in a four three scheme, 670 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: you know, and not taking anything away from from how 671 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: bad these these safeties have been playing, but they were 672 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 1: also draft but they were also used to play in 673 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 1: the four three scheme. And and you know the fans 674 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 1: would have to go study and see how much different 675 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: it is. But playing one gap defense versus two gap 676 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: defense is a whole different world. Like you have to 677 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: see things different, you have to play them different, you 678 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 1: have to read pulling guards different, you have to reforce different, 679 00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: everything is Differently, I think you're seeing a multitude these mistakes, 680 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of those are based on 681 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: the difference in the scheme. You know, couple with with 682 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: the effort, which I believe Jerry Jones talked about as 683 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: well when your owners talking about effort, that that's a 684 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: big thing. But I think the scheme is this hindering 685 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 1: these guys a lot as well. Now, look, look let's 686 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: just be let's just straight up here, throw it out here. Okay, 687 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: it's not like these guys in the previous scheme. We're 688 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 1: out here self dominating defense. So it's it's switching the 689 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 1: scheme and going finding other guys. Is that, I mean, 690 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: what's the issue a problem there? You know, it's not 691 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 1: like the hot boys sat up here and put some 692 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: titles up here for the cowboys. Okay, so these are 693 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: so I'm not opposed to them saying, hey, look we're 694 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: gonna go ahead and switch this thing and flip it 695 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: and get the guys we wanted here. We'll think about 696 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 1: it this way, though, what what what scheme was de 697 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 1: Marcus Lawrence? And when when he got him self paid? 698 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 1: What scheme was was Robert Quinn? And last year when 699 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: he got him self paid? When you win, you know, 700 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 1: huh No, I'm just talking about how they I'm talking 701 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: about I'm talking about how how they their production, their 702 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 1: production as players. We're talking about now lack of production. 703 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 1: You said the Hope boys aren't showing up when Jaylen 704 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: Smith and Lvee where if they're best and you thought 705 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: that they were the best duo coming up to be 706 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: the best duo of linebackers. They were in the fourth 707 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: three scheme. They like, these guys were productive in that 708 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: type of scheme, and and and Neui they won more 709 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: than their winning now. All right, So so if we're 710 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 1: comparing what's going on, the defense still look better previously 711 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: than it did now. But but my point is they 712 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 1: have been productive in that scheme. And this is when 713 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 1: they looked like they were all rising stars in a 714 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: in a in the four three scheme, and and and 715 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: the way that Marinelli was coaching the defense, coaching the 716 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: d line, you know, mixing it up, running games and 717 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 1: doing all that type of stuff, making it interesting and 718 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: making the confusing for the offensive line. When they were 719 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:54,359 Speaker 1: doing that, they were productive. Albeit they weren't the top, 720 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 1: you know, the top defense in the league. They played 721 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: better and the players that we were talking about, they 722 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 1: were more productive than they are. Now. Okay, my question 723 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 1: for you that I want you to answer after the break, 724 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: then what do you do in twenty twenty? Do you 725 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: run a scheme that goes back to more four to 726 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: three that fits these guys? Or do you give Mike 727 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 1: Nolan what he wants? I want you know, if you're 728 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 1: Danny McCrae, what do you do? I want you to 729 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 1: answer that and we'll get it here we're in our 730 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: SWBC Mortgage Virtual Home Studios.

I'm new scrubs longtime 772 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: Cowboys reporter joined by Dati McCrae um. They played for 773 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,759 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys, now works for the organization. Um Don 774 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:08,879 Speaker 1: Terry Poe, according to Ian Rappaport of NFL Media, has 775 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 1: been cut and quarterback Daryl Worley has been cut. Rappaport 776 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,239 Speaker 1: says they were shopped all day, found no takers, and 777 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 1: they moved on. So the Cowboys no longer having those 778 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 1: two players. So we're looking at three players gone in 779 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: basically less than twenty four hours. Danny mccraig, so Jerry 780 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,399 Speaker 1: Jones said they were gonna make some changes. They made 781 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: some changes. I don't know if that's going to result 782 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,800 Speaker 1: in any anything in a double you against Philadelphia, especially 783 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 1: if any Dalton can't go as a starting quarterback and 784 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:43,800 Speaker 1: they have to throw out rookie Ben d Nucci. But Jerry, Jerry, 785 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 1: Jerry at least lived up to this part of it. 786 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 1: And if you're in the locker room now and you 787 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: don't have a massive contract you look back on, you 788 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 1: may want to be worried. You better, you know, if 789 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: you have been buying in better buying in now. Listen, 790 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 1: let me tell you something for sure, almost for sure, 791 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: one half of that those deep balls that had been 792 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 1: going over our head is gone. Warley had been playing horrible. 793 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: I really thought that he would, he would have been 794 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,359 Speaker 1: released a few weeks ago, but I guess they're waiting 795 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:15,480 Speaker 1: for Cheeto to come back. He had been playing playing 796 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 1: you know what way below parts. We saw that coming 797 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 1: and Pope just was out there just looking like he 798 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 1: was uninterested in being being on the field at all. 799 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 1: So those two were really easy. Um, I don't think 800 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 1: Pope Pope being gone is really going to change that 801 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 1: much for us. So I think he was one of 802 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,280 Speaker 1: those guys at the at the bottom, at the bottom 803 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,480 Speaker 1: of the defensive tackle Lizabeth. We had three of those 804 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 1: guys on there, so we still got some guys that 805 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: are underperforming out there. So I don't see that changing 806 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: much as far as our run defense. When it comes 807 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 1: to free agents for the Cowboys and they brought in 808 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:51,320 Speaker 1: this off season, it's been very disappointing. Warley Cut. You 809 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 1: brought him in, Poe, you brought him in. Cut Gerald McCoy, 810 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: who was supposed to be starting defensive tackle. He got 811 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,040 Speaker 1: hurt training camp and then was cut. Then you had 812 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 1: how Ha Clinton Dix they brought in supposed to be 813 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: a starting safety. He never made it. He never made 814 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 1: this a regular season. He was cut. This is a 815 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: bad run. Okay, it's a bad run for the Cowboys. 816 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: And the times comes to bringing guys into your football team, 817 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:15,759 Speaker 1: I want to stick with this defensive thing, Danny, and 818 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 1: I asked you a question before the break here. Other 819 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:20,959 Speaker 1: players aren't brought to you by hotels dot Com. Are 820 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 1: you going to fit a scheme for the players that 821 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 1: you have here running a four three? Are you going 822 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 1: to choose Mike Nolan and letting Mike Nolan implement what 823 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 1: he wants next year? Uh? Listen, and this is this 824 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 1: is just me my opinion. And I've always well for 825 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,439 Speaker 1: most of my career college career, all that I played 826 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: in the four to three, and I've seen things that 827 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:46,319 Speaker 1: that guys can get done. You know how you can 828 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 1: change the game and allow players to get one on 829 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: ones and do special things with their talents. And I 830 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 1: believe that we should bring in a guy who runs 831 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,839 Speaker 1: a four three, who runs something similar to Mary Nearly 832 00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 1: but not the same, has his own little touch on it. 833 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe a few more few more zone blitzers, you know, 834 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 1: a little bit more creative with with with how you 835 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: attack defenses, I mean your offenses. But I would break 836 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 1: a four three guy in letting one hundred million dollars man, 837 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,920 Speaker 1: you know, line up where he wants to and do, 838 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:16,279 Speaker 1: and do what he's good and put his hand in 839 00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 1: the ground. Let Jalen run around out there and the 840 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 1: one gap defense give him one. He has one? One 841 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:25,839 Speaker 1: uh one? Uh I guess one rule? All right? If 842 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:27,319 Speaker 1: you're in the A gap, run through the A gap. 843 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:28,919 Speaker 1: If you got to be gap, you got the be gap. 844 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: Don't don't you know, get him out of this, you know, 845 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 1: confusing stuff because when you have players thinking a lot, 846 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:35,440 Speaker 1: that's when they slow down. And I think you're seeing 847 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 1: a difference in that one. So I'm all for four 848 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: three getting Mike Nolan out of here, especially because you 849 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:41,759 Speaker 1: can't even get these guys to run full speed for 850 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 1: the entire game and hustle and you're standing with Nolan. 851 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 1: It sounds like no, no, I know. This is this 852 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,439 Speaker 1: is me thinking like the head coach. The head coach, 853 00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: just baty buddy system. You're not on the head coach. 854 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 1: You gotta go fire his boy. You gotta fire the 855 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,720 Speaker 1: guy that gave him his opportunity as an offensive coordinator, 856 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:07,799 Speaker 1: which resulted in him getting the opportunity to be a 857 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 1: head coach and winning a Super Bowl. You know how 858 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 1: these things work. You've been in this league. These dudes 859 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: ride or die. I mean, if it's one thing, we've seen, 860 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:19,799 Speaker 1: nobody cops for coaches like other coaches. So that's gonna 861 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 1: be real interesting for Mike. Now, Jerry Jones and Steven Jones, 862 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: could he easily make it easy and say, Mike, we're 863 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 1: not asking, we're telling. This is what we this is 864 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,279 Speaker 1: what has to happen. There's not like they ever done 865 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:36,920 Speaker 1: it before. All right, they've gotten guys out of here, 866 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 1: you know, and yeah, but so they should so so, 867 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 1: but Jerry's come out and said, I got my guy. 868 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,279 Speaker 1: So that's what I'm gonna be very interested to see 869 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,279 Speaker 1: is is how how much does Mike Nolan get what 870 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 1: he wants? So we'll see, we shall see on that. Um, 871 00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 1: this is what happens with that so so so so 872 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 1: what so, so you you give another year, you've seen 873 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 1: how to like you see that it's more than just 874 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: the scheme. It's it's buying players not understanding what to do. 875 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 1: They really saying that the coaches as a whole have 876 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,360 Speaker 1: no idea what's going on. I don't understand how you 877 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,279 Speaker 1: need another chance to say, let me get some guys 878 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:17,360 Speaker 1: in here that what that believe in me, that the 879 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 1: will will understand better. And you got a whole locker 880 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 1: room that's saying that you don't know what's going on. 881 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't understand what would be different next 882 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 1: year unless you bring in the whole roster of defense 883 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 1: is different. Let's say Mike Nolan says, look Aldon Smith, 884 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 1: look at what he's done. I'm not able to put 885 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 1: in the exact defense where I can take advantage of 886 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:47,600 Speaker 1: this guy. And the corners here and dbs, these aren't 887 00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 1: the guys that I want. Let me go. Let me 888 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:50,799 Speaker 1: go get the guys that I want that I can 889 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:55,239 Speaker 1: go do this. Jerry Jones can be persuaded. Okay, we 890 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 1: know this. He and Steven can be persuaded. And if 891 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,319 Speaker 1: they're going to ride with Marthy and McCarthy says, I 892 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 1: must have this guy, then this is gonna be a 893 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 1: fantastic thing. To me, this is gonna be a fantastic 894 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,799 Speaker 1: theater to watch in the off season. Who wins this 895 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 1: because they gotta fix it. You gotta fix it. And 896 00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:16,360 Speaker 1: that's why I say to me, it is going to 897 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,840 Speaker 1: be one or the other. It is either the players 898 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:22,759 Speaker 1: or it's it's your coaches. And if Mike McCarthy says, 899 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 1: I gotta have this guy, who are they to tell 900 00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy he can't have his guy if he's sold 901 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 1: on him, and they say they're sold on him. And 902 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,799 Speaker 1: Jerry said, hey, there's no guy that can fix this 903 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 1: thing like McCarthy. You know, Mike McCarthy remer when he 904 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 1: had to make a change up there in Green Bay. Now, 905 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 1: it wasn't all him because Ted Thompson had a lot 906 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 1: to do with things, and so did Mark Murphy. But 907 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:45,799 Speaker 1: they brought in Don Capers and Caper was able to 908 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 1: fix their defense and then it helped them win a 909 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Donc Campers also ran three. So so I'll 910 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 1: be interested to see how it goes. Man, I don't listen. 911 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 1: I don't get it one. You know, how can Mike 912 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:01,040 Speaker 1: Nolan go get his guys that he wants. We're already 913 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 1: talking about being and having cap issues and finding ways 914 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 1: to get money. I can't imagine that he just has 915 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:08,200 Speaker 1: free agents out there right now that don't cost much 916 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:10,280 Speaker 1: that he wants to go get to revamp to his defense. 917 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,760 Speaker 1: So he's looking at happen to go get some expense 918 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: some guys that I don't think we have the money 919 00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,760 Speaker 1: to go get two. Are you gonna choose the offensive 920 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,600 Speaker 1: line or the defense, because right now we need a 921 00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:21,960 Speaker 1: whole line, and I think a lot of our resources 922 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,280 Speaker 1: are gonna need to go there. I'm gonna say this, Danny, 923 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:30,719 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this. I believe we will see some 924 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:35,560 Speaker 1: amazing bargains out there this offseason for good players because 925 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 1: they're gonna be teams are really they're gonna be in 926 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: cap hades. The Saints have cap issues next year, Texans 927 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 1: have cap issues. I mean there are several teams, man, 928 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:48,680 Speaker 1: and you just go over to over thecap dot Com 929 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: that when you look at what they got going into 930 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, it's a mess. I mean it's truly 931 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 1: a mess. So I think there's gonna be some nice 932 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:58,719 Speaker 1: bargains out there, and that's this cap goes down, all 933 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:01,720 Speaker 1: teams are gonna have to release really good football players. 934 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 1: So maybe making a good argument for Nolan, you're making 935 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,719 Speaker 1: a good argument for him. Okay, I got you. No, No, 936 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:13,239 Speaker 1: it's something I'm saying. Maybe that is where you get 937 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,800 Speaker 1: McCarthy and Knowlan. You know these two guys, their buddies. 938 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:19,240 Speaker 1: They're thinking, again, Hey, this is what we sell Jerry, Jerry, 939 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 1: I can get these guys here, you know, plug this 940 00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 1: guy here, and we can make it work. I'm just 941 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 1: saying they're gonna have a plan. Okay, no man coaches 942 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 1: ride with these dudes. And when you got a guy 943 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:36,840 Speaker 1: who you owe, I mean, think of it this way. Thinking. 944 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:42,480 Speaker 1: You know, Mike Nolan was Doctor Dre and Mike McCarthy 945 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 1: was Eminem not even flipped. Mike McCarthy is gonna give 946 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:53,400 Speaker 1: He's gonna give doctor Dre a lifeline, man, because he 947 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 1: gave him the start. The very things that he has 948 00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,719 Speaker 1: happened because this dude gave him a shot. I just 949 00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 1: don't think he's going to a lit him to be 950 00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:04,600 Speaker 1: blown out because during a pandemic, when he didn't have 951 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 1: a full off season to go out there and sell it. 952 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,280 Speaker 1: Jerry's already telling you and giving you all these different 953 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,279 Speaker 1: things of why, hey, this has been disappointing, but you 954 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:14,560 Speaker 1: couldn't have imagined all the injuries. You couldn't imagine we 955 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 1: didn't have time to work with these guys. And you 956 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 1: gotta let the coaching staff jail. They're laying all the 957 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,880 Speaker 1: groundwork to give them what they want. I mean that 958 00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 1: in Dandy. Doing this job as long as I have, 959 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:29,279 Speaker 1: I've learned to listen to things. And I used to 960 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 1: tell people all the time Jason Garrett revealed a lot 961 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 1: of stuff. If you listen to what he didn't set. 962 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:38,480 Speaker 1: You know what Jason would not say about players would 963 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,239 Speaker 1: tell me a lot about what he thought about, Like 964 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:43,320 Speaker 1: if Jason really liked you, like Zach Martin or Dak Prescott, 965 00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,360 Speaker 1: he would have man just football playing. Guy cares about 966 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 1: the game. And if he didn't say it, like what tacos, 967 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 1: what he didn't say, I'll taco Charlton. Always told me 968 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 1: what he thought about Taco Charlaton, because you knew Jason 969 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 1: Garrett kind of got And so as I hear Jerry 970 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 1: talk and I hear Mike McCarthy talk, these guys are 971 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 1: laying the groundwork to give themselves a mulligan and to 972 00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:06,480 Speaker 1: say we didn't get what we really wanted and that 973 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:08,760 Speaker 1: opportunity to do what we wanted to do, to implement 974 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,239 Speaker 1: our system. Let's give it a go. Let's give it 975 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,799 Speaker 1: a go. That's what I'm saying. I think they're gonna 976 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 1: choose Nolan and McCarthy getting what they want and they're 977 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:21,439 Speaker 1: gonna change our players. That's just my opinion turns away 978 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 1: in on this tomorrow, Yeah, let them exactly. We'll dive 979 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 1: in tomorrow.
