Speaker 1: the twenty twenty season last night in Philadelphia at the

19
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: Lincoln Financial Field, and man, we've got a we got

20
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: a lot to talk about. Whenever it comes to the

21
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 1: offensive side of the football. Defense played better, but man,

22
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 1: we've got a lot to hit there as well. Isaiah

23
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: standback our residence. Super Bowl champion Cowboys insider Rob Phillips,

24
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 1: the sultry voice of heck Ma Harrison. I'm Kyle Yeomans again.

25
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: Thank you smooth jazz with heck Ma Harrison. Thanks again

26
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: for joining us. And let's go ahead and get into this.

27
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 1: Let's dissect what happened last night. Bend Nucci starting at

28
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: quarterback the seventh round, rookie out of James Madison, and

29
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: it did not go well for Denucci, the entire offense

30
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: and Rob. Things just they were pretty out of whack

31
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: from the get go on that side of the football.

32
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 1: I don't know, and we might have lost Rob. Go

33
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: for it, Hackma, Why does Rob do this to me

34
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,679
Speaker 1: on a sandwich in chest Monday. I know what Rob

35
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: was gonna say. The Nucci looked like a rookie cat.

36
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: We retired the name Gucci the Nucci from now on. Man,

37
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: let let let a game. Um, oh my god, man,

38
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: it's it's so it's so many things to unpack today, guys,

39
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,639
Speaker 1: But when it comes down to how we performed, we

40
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,119
Speaker 1: loot that rookie quarterback just couldn't get this office going

41
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 1: at all. And we were looking for the running game.

42
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: I like the wildcat as the new wrinkle to try

43
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: and get Zeke involved, but it just seemed like none

44
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: of it worked in. When we got down into the

45
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: goal line, we just couldn't punch it in. And all

46
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 1: of those are byproduct of having a rookie, having a

47
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback. We did the best we could. I felt

48
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: like defensively we started off pretty bad. The running game

49
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: for the for the Eagles were just gashing us. But

50
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: then we started to shore up some of those days.

51
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,959
Speaker 1: And if we want to look for any bright spot,

52
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: I guess we'll we'll start talking about trey Von Diggs.

53
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: But even with Diggs, it was a it was a

54
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: good and that was also a bad. But my god, man,

55
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 1: where do you go from here? And with what you

56
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: have on the horizon? Yeah, we're gonna be talking about

57
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: a lot of other things other than what we're going

58
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: this season as Zaiah, what are your thoughts after last

59
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: night's loss? Terrible? Terrible and and Charles Brownie terrible? Um,

60
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: it was awful, man, It was hard to watch Kyle,

61
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: you and I watched it together. There's really not a

62
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: whole lot to say about this, and I wish we

63
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: could just look forward to the next week, but I

64
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: don't think we really want to do that right now. Um,

65
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: it was bad, man. I know a lot it's gonna

66
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: be placed on Denucci, and yes, he had a rough night.

67
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: But I think a lot of this, and I mentioned

68
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: this last night on the post game show, a lot

69
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: of this falls on the shoulders of Keller Moore too.

70
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: Keller Moore did not call a good game. He did

71
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: not set this offense up for success. Um. He whenever

72
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: there was momentum on the on our side of the ball,

73
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 1: you know, he killed the momentum with terrible play. Call

74
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: the reverse. Oh, let's there's there was There was three

75
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: or four I know account three for sure, reverse slash

76
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 1: reverse passes that were in the mix. Um, I think

77
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 1: we had three different quarterbacks play last night. It was

78
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: just it was a lot, man, it was a lot.

79
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: I think I think Moore was overwhelmed with the situation.

80
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,799
Speaker 1: He didn't handle that accordingly. De Nucci did not handle

81
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: his his opportunity well. Um, whenever he did have receivers

82
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: opened the ball, the placement was It was awful. Uh.

83
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: Obviously he made some really bad decisions as well as

84
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 1: terms of whether to throw the ball away or not. Um,

85
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: he got lucky on some players that should have been

86
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: picked off. He did not secure the ball. It was

87
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: just it was all around bad, you know what, Like

88
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: I said, But the bright spot was the defense did

89
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 1: play a little bit better and they were hustling. And

90
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: one thing I could I can't say about this entire

91
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: team is the energy was better. And I don't know

92
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: if it has I don't have to know if that

93
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: has anything to do with the fact that the guys

94
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: that they let go of, but I feel like it does.

95
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: I know, when there's veterans in front of you, you

96
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: tend to kind of hold back. You don't want to

97
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: be yourself because those guys kind of setting the president

98
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: of what was our team is. But with those guys gone,

99
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: you saw the energy, you saw the fire I'm in desire,

100
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 1: but it just didn't it didn't manifest anything. Rob, are

101
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: you back, I'm there. I'm sorry, fellas. Okay, we're more

102
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: basically just giving her Yeah, good morning, welcome, welcome to

103
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: the show. I'm glad. I wish we were still back

104
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: in person for this this week. But since you are back, yeah,

105
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 1: give us your thoughts on this loss and kind of

106
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: the generalities that you took from it last night. Well,

107
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: I caught part of what Isaiah said, and you know,

108
00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: offensively it the situation was what it was. You know,

109
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: we talked about it going into the game. Bin to Nucci,

110
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 1: clearly he wasn't ready for this opportunity, and that's really

111
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: no fault of his own. H And I don't even

112
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,840
Speaker 1: think it's really the cowboy's fault because look, you know,

113
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: no preseason game reps at all, even on top of

114
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 1: just one week to prepare. H he. You know, they

115
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 1: changed some things up on him that Philly did in

116
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 1: terms of they didn't blitz as much, they kind of

117
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: played more coverage, and I think that threw him off.

118
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: And you know, Isaiah referenced the game plan in terms

119
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: of some of the trick plays. You know, de Nucci's

120
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: situation manifested itself with that game plan, with trying to

121
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: do some some weird things to throw Philly off and

122
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: and and make things happen. And really it did, you know,

123
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: other than CD's nineteen yard reverse run on the second

124
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 1: play from scrimmage. They didn't really get much out of

125
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,479
Speaker 1: those plays, and you know reference I think Isaiah you

126
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: referenced the one in the third quarter where you know

127
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 1: you're pounding the rock. It's I think it's seven straight

128
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 1: runs and they're actually getting something going on the ground,

129
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: and then you have a somebody missed a block on

130
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 1: Fletcher Cox. I believe it was ten yard loss for

131
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson, and that was you know, that was your

132
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: opportunity to get in the game. And I know fans

133
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: are gonna are upset. I'm sure you know it's a

134
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: wasted effort by the defense by far their best performance

135
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: of the season. But I do think going into this game,

136
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: the situation was what it was, you know, with ben

137
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: da Nucci trying to make this thing happen, they were

138
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: going to be challenged all night. And ultimately the scorer

139
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: isn't really that surprising to me, and we kind of

140
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: talked about it all week. Was we knew the situation

141
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: going in with the quarterback and with Vinda Nucci and

142
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: the fact that the numbers are stacked against him. I

143
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: believe Cowboys rookies starters at quarterback were three and ten

144
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: now three and eleven backup since two thousand and seven

145
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 1: were seven and twenty two as a starter, so overall

146
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 1: the numbers were stacked against them no matter what. But

147
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: we also said in order to kind of combat that

148
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: got up the play calling, and I felt like they

149
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: tried to get creative with play calling, but it wasn't

150
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 1: necessarily anything that worked. It didn't work, and then you

151
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,679
Speaker 1: kept going back to it and it didn't work again,

152
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: and he went back to it again and it was

153
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: the same result. It was a little frustrating to see

154
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: the thought process going on there, but not going away

155
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,679
Speaker 1: and making adjustments mid game. That's something that I really

156
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: didn't like, Isaiah. Whenever it came to the play calling

157
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: that was out on the field, it didn't help your

158
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: guys out of a whole lot. No, And you're absolutely correct.

159
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: And the thing that you want to do whenever you

160
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 1: have a young quarterback or somebody that's just trying to

161
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: simply get established with some confidence, is you want to

162
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: give him a limited amount of plays, right, And we

163
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,079
Speaker 1: always heard about how everybody needs how they needed to

164
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: dumb down the playbook for him. I feel like you

165
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: could have gave him now the typical play call sheet.

166
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 1: Let me just help everybody understand it. She's usually about

167
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: two hundred to three hundred calls on a play on

168
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 1: a play call sheet. So when you got to see

169
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: the coach over there with his little with his little whatever,

170
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: little classic piece of paper. Um, I can I think

171
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: of the name, it was laminated lamind thank you very much,

172
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: laminated paper. Um, that's about it's about. There's usually about

173
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: three hundred calls on that, depending on the coach, right,

174
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: depending on how how how how deep they want to

175
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: go into their their offense. But I feel like they

176
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: should have probably dumbed that down to probably around seventy

177
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: five plays for him, um and taking those plays right

178
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: and then totally just change the formation, change the personnel.

179
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 1: It's something we used to do in New England all

180
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: the time. Are we had a very extensive offense, but

181
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 1: a lot of the times we're going to going to

182
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: a game a week and we would simply just take

183
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: about twenty plays and we would just run those same

184
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: plays over and over and over again. It but we

185
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 1: were running from different personnel and running from different formations.

186
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 1: We run from different motions to get to get to

187
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 1: those positions. That way, he's not overthinking things. But it

188
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 1: looks totally different to the defense. So there's a way

189
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 1: of going about it. And I think that I think more.

190
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 1: I think this is a test for him. As much

191
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 1: as this was a rookie stepping up into this position,

192
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 1: I think, you know, Kellen Moore, this was his his

193
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: rookie showing in terms of how to handle a handle

194
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: on somebody in this situation. Yeah, Isaiah, And it looked

195
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: like Swartz. It looked like Schwartz had an easy game

196
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,719
Speaker 1: plan for the Nuccie that confused him. That came at

197
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: points in the game where you could tell the rookie

198
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: was struggling. He was seeing fifteen dbs back there, he

199
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: couldn't find any spaces at times where the offensive line

200
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: actually gave him the time to throw. But you know,

201
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 1: when you're going into a game like this, and we

202
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: talked about the pitch count and saying that, look, man,

203
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: if we got to the point where the Nucci through

204
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: the ball forty times, we were in trouble. Look at

205
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 1: the statue through the ball ball forty times. But the

206
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 1: worst quarterback in this game wasn't being the Nucci, it

207
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: was the other guy. So I mean, if you want

208
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 1: to just place your hat on anything. We didn't do

209
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: ourselves any favors in this game to win it. But

210
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: Philly is terrible as well, all right, and so they

211
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 1: got by and it wasn't we couldn't overcome some of

212
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: our mistakes for our rookie quarterback. But look, man, Philly

213
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 1: isn't going anywhere fast and based off of their schedule

214
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 1: and what they have coming up, if we can just

215
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 1: get some things correct, and I can't even believe I'm

216
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: saying this, Yeah, well we gotta get Well that's the thing, man.

217
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: The Philly is terrible. They're bad, all right, and you

218
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,839
Speaker 1: could tell. But the way that wins is holding on

219
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: to the ball. Look, man, it's not gonna get any better.

220
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: And if we just had a little bit at quarterback,

221
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,719
Speaker 1: that was a game for our for us to win. Yeah,

222
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: I mean, WinCE Wentz made three more throws than the

223
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 1: Nucci did, as as much as the Nucci struggled in

224
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: that game. I mean he had the touchdown pass and

225
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: a couple of the throws and other than that, you know,

226
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: I know it was it looked windy, looked really windy,

227
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: but there was he was just throwing balls up for grabs.

228
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: You know, the accuracy for Wentz has been a problem

229
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 1: all year long. But um, you know, to piggyback on

230
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:51,079
Speaker 1: what Isaiah said, I mean with the Nucci, I think

231
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:52,839
Speaker 1: the play calling could have helped. I think they should

232
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,559
Speaker 1: have stuck to the run, especially in the second half

233
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: when it was working. But I just feel like he

234
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 1: just was in a He was over matched in this game.

235
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 1: I mean early on you could tell he was. He

236
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: held the ball too long on that first bumble, he

237
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: was processing things too slowly. The best thing they had

238
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 1: going offensively was those little short flares, those short screens

239
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: to the top receivers and let those guys work, let them,

240
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: let them work in space. But anytime they tried to

241
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: go down the field, I mean, it was an adventure

242
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: because you thought it was gonna get picked off. Yeah,

243
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,839
Speaker 1: it was something that made you nervous. He gave you

244
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 1: the bubble guts whenever you saw him step back and

245
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 1: actually try and throw one, because you didn't know how

246
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: long it was going to take until that pocket collapsed,

247
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 1: and then you had to see his escapability. I thought

248
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: Ben Nannucci did a nice job running the ball last night,

249
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 1: and I think he used his legs on a couple

250
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 1: of occasions. Now, whenever it comes to the offensive line,

251
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: and we talked about protecting him, what did we think

252
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: about the offensive line, because going back and watching it,

253
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,679
Speaker 1: I thought Tyler Beatis maybe had his best game at center.

254
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 1: Zach Martin absolutely helped. But man, we've got a problem

255
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: on the right side of that offensive line. HECMA, yes,

256
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: we do, and we gotta figure out what Terace Steele

257
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: has on the coaching staff for him to continue to

258
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: line up at right tackle. This first half was horrible.

259
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: I think he got better as the game went alone.

260
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: They got him some help, but man, on that offensive line,

261
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: he is the one guy that you can point to this. Look,

262
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: we have some leakage on that side, but you're right, Kyle,

263
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,559
Speaker 1: be honest. They showed it in also having Zach Martin

264
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: back as well did a really good These guys did

265
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 1: a really good job up front. The protection was there

266
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: in some circumstances, but you have to look at the

267
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 1: situation and Benny Knuti was just holding onto the ball

268
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: way too long, and on that one play where he

269
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 1: had Fletcher Cox coming right at him, I'm just screaming

270
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: at my television. Throw the ball being and It's a

271
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: couple of times where it's like, man, you have to

272
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: recognize ninety one coming at you, and it's just then

273
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 1: the recognition wasn't there. You couldn't recognize ninety one coming

274
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: at you. He obviously, he obviously could not recognize ninety

275
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 1: one coming up. Wasn't Delaware's defensive end coming back down

276
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: at you. That wasn't that. That wasn't Stony Brooks coming

277
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 1: at you. There, that was flex your cox, Hey, brow

278
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: the ball, Brow the ball, get it out of your hands.

279
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask Isaiah this because he was in

280
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: studio last night. I didn't get a chance to talk

281
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: to him. But from a quarterback's perspective, was he just

282
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: was he just seeing like Heck said just fifteen guys.

283
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: Was it was everything just going too fast for him?

284
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 1: Because it seemed like maybe it's settled down a little

285
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: bit in the second half, but early on it was

286
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 1: just like I he just there's too much going on

287
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: for him. I think, yeah, No, I think I mentioned

288
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: this to Kyle and Nate and studio. In the first

289
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: quarter when Ben don you dropped back, I think I

290
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: think it was like a third down play and you

291
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 1: could see how he wasn't looking downfield. His eyes were

292
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: not downfield. He was concerned with the rush. And at

293
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: the time that he was doing that, there was only

294
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: four guys rushing. Well, I'm sorry, Ben, those are gonna

295
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: be the same four guys coming at you all game long, changing,

296
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: you know. But I've been there before when I was

297
00:14:58,000 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: when I was a young quarterback in college. You know,

298
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: you get caught up looking at the rush. You're so

299
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: concerned about about getting sacked that you that you now

300
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 1: can't focus on doing your job, which is making sure

301
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: that you deliver the ball down the field. Um. And

302
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: you know in throwing downs and it's a lot, man,

303
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: it takes a lot of reputation. Um, it's gonna take

304
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: him a while, and we don't have a while. Unfortunately,

305
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 1: hopefully any dog can get back and get some form

306
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: of stability going forward. Um, but he's young, man. It sucks.

307
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 1: It's that's a sucky situation. I think he I think

308
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: he failed in his in his h in his rookie start. Um.

309
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 1: I think you know, like I said, Kelling Moore, he

310
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 1: was a rookie in this in this particular situation, and

311
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: he failed as well. Hey, what about the side on right,

312
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: that was terrible. Man. I don't he came pulling that

313
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 1: out too on the sideline. That's a question, Kyle. We

314
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: were in training camp and he didn't get a ton

315
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: of reps. But I know he kind of throws like that.

316
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 1: But the one by the sideline, like I don't remember

317
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: him doing the white earb things. Oh where it's like

318
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: a complete side arm. That was new because I feel

319
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: like whenever he pulled it out, the first thought I had,

320
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: and you can I can guarantee Nate and Isaiah remember

321
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: me doing this. I jumped up, I had some ribs

322
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: on my plate and I put it on the ground

323
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: and I said, listen here, that was a baseball throw.

324
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: And I mean he was basically like a like a

325
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: short stop coming around and throwing sidearm off balance. It's like,

326
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 1: that's hard to do one, but two, that's such a

327
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: low accurately play. I don't know what he's thinking. They're

328
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: trying to make something. Everybody, everybody on this everybody on

329
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: the sideline just watched the ball go by, like what

330
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 1: was that? They said, Yeah, I love that brand. But

331
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: you just that's what you do. Man. When you're in

332
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 1: that situation, you're trying to You're trying to find something, right,

333
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: You're trying to find something positive, man, because he knows

334
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 1: I can't sit in the pocket. Whenever I do get

335
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: out of the pocket, guys are covered up, so I

336
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: don't want to run out of bounds, right, because that's

337
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 1: kind of weak of me to run out of bounds.

338
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: So they me trying to force something without getting an interception.

339
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: So I has to be a low percentage throw because

340
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,120
Speaker 1: I don't want it to be a high percentage interception ratio. Right.

341
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: It's just it's just bad, man. It's just it was

342
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: all around not good. And we talked about it. I

343
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 1: think I mentioned it on the show on Friday. Out

344
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: there from Tostitos, it was about talking about how my

345
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 1: biggest fear is about him holding the ball, right, It

346
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 1: was about him holding the ball because he's gonna have

347
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: to wait. In his mind, he needs to wait till

348
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,119
Speaker 1: these guys are all the way open, because it's in

349
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 1: his head. Don't throw a pick. Don't throw a pick. Well,

350
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 1: you didn't throw a pick, so that's good. But you

351
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 1: just happened to fumbel the ball because these guys are

352
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: coming after you. You're holding onto it too long. So

353
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: that was one of my biggest concerns in and we

354
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,199
Speaker 1: saw that come back to bite him. I feel for

355
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: him because I asked him after the game about the

356
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: speed of the game, and he said that all week

357
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: in his mind, he kept tell himself, I gotta play fast.

358
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: I gotta play fast. I gotta play fast. But I

359
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: don't know, you know, I don't know if you means yeah.

360
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 1: I don't know if you feel the speed of it

361
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: until you're actually out there waiting with live reps. Well,

362
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: and I'm glad you guys brought up the side arm

363
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: conversation because there were a couple of drops in there

364
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: as well from good throws from Ben Denucci, but it

365
00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 1: were dropped at a certain point. I kind of want

366
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: Isaiah to go through that here in just a little bit.

367
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: But when we come back, you're on Talking Cowboys. We're

368
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,560

408
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 1: going into the break as we continue our breakdown of

409
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 1: the eagles twenty three to nine win over the Cowboys.

410
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,159
Speaker 1: Cowboys out at two and six and doesn't get easier

411
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 1: on the horizon. Pittsburgh Steelers only undefeated team in the

412
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: NFL on the horizon this weekend on the docket coming

413
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 1: to AT and T Stadium. Now I tease this, like

414
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 1: I said, but would Andy Dalton have one last night's game?

415
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: I mean, we look at the stats from Benda Nucci

416
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 1: twenty one to forty one hundred and eighty yards, no

417
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,120
Speaker 1: touch downs, no interceptions, didn't really get close at any

418
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 1: point of either one of those. Couldn't finish drives. The

419
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: Cowboys were in, had an opportunity twice to get in

420
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: this football game, especially at the end of the game.

421
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 1: They went with it, went forward on fourth and two,

422
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 1: didn't get it. You look at maybe kicking a field

423
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 1: goal there. You should have it tied at fifteen at

424
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: later in the game because of where the football was.

425
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 1: But I mean, put all that in the rearview mirror.

426
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: I asked the question, Rob Dalton, does he get a

427
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:34,639
Speaker 1: w last night because of the situation of that football game. Yes,

428
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: I think if they had just kind of average quarterback

429
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 1: play last night, they win the game because of what

430
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 1: the defense was able to do. Just to really if

431
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: they just had completed a few more throws. And I

432
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,199
Speaker 1: think maybe with Dalton they would have had more of

433
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 1: that traditional game plan because because of the experience, and

434
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: they wouldn't have had to try some of those plays

435
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,439
Speaker 1: at Kellamore tried that didn't work. Now, the protections another

436
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 1: facet of it. And obviously with pressure pressuring Dalton, that's

437
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,679
Speaker 1: been a problem when we've seen him in games. And

438
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 1: I'm sorry Coin took you away from the offensive line

439
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: in the first segment. I thought what encourages me is

440
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: the run blocking that they were able to get going

441
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: with Zach back in the game, that that is something

442
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 1: to build on going forward, and that gives me some

443
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 1: some encouragement with with Andy if he comes back this week,

444
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: as early as this week, that they can establish some

445
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 1: of that balance and keep some of that balance with

446
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 1: Zeke and with Tony Pollard, and you know, we'll see

447
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 1: what happens. I know, I know Heck brought up do

448
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,199
Speaker 1: they need to do something at right tackle? Yeah, I

449
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 1: mean we've been talking about that for a while. I

450
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 1: still feel that way, you know, I don't know. I

451
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: know Mike McCarthy doesn't want to switch out two spots,

452
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 1: but I'm looking at this matchup coming up with Bud

453
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: Dupree and t J. Watt and maybe you want to

454
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: shore up that right side. But but yeah, I think

455
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 1: I think with a couple more plays, I think with

456
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: a couple more plays from Dalton, they would have won

457
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 1: this game. And that's not again, that's not a knock

458
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 1: on the Nutsie. I think he was put in. It's

459
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: a tough situation, a really bad situation for a young

460
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 1: player trying to come and win that game last night

461
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,919
Speaker 1: instead of playing I think, because I think instead of

462
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: playing coverage swards, then blitz is more and maybe that's

463
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 1: that's a whole different defensive game playing if Andy Dalton

464
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: is the starter a quarterback, but maybe game management wise,

465
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton would have given you a lot more. Uh.

466
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 1: It's really hard to articulate any of that after a

467
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 1: game where offensively we just couldn't get anything going, or

468
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 1: especially in the red zone where we had a couple

469
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 1: opportunities to strike and only came away with three points.

470
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:43,239
Speaker 1: So look, it's I'm gonna say yes, and especially if

471
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 1: you ask me if if Dak was starting, yeah, we

472
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,120
Speaker 1: win that game. I don't agree with that. If Dak

473
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 1: is playing Isaiah's gonna just like no. Yeah, I like

474
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 1: to think so. I like to think so. Um. And

475
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 1: it mainly because of the point that Rob brought up,

476
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: because I was thinking about it just you know, swapping

477
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,119
Speaker 1: out the quarterbacks and what that would present. But you know,

478
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 1: you have to take to account that Kelly Morris would

479
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: not have been called on half the bs that he

480
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,400
Speaker 1: was calling yesterday. And if they and if that's the case,

481
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 1: and I think they do put themselves in a position

482
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,719
Speaker 1: to win the game, um, because I think that they

483
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 1: probably would have stick stuck with the traditional running more

484
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,719
Speaker 1: than all the craziness. Uh. So I think I think

485
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 1: they probably win the game. I'm I say that with

486
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: hesitation because of the lack the lackluster effort at the

487
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,360
Speaker 1: office on line put forth whenever they did have any

488
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 1: Dolton um, you know, last week. And if they if

489
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 1: that's an indication of what's to come, um, in terms

490
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 1: of their effort based upon that particular quarterback, then we

491
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,640
Speaker 1: have we got we still have woes and worries, um.

492
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 1: But if they gave the effort that they gave last

493
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 1: night with a different scheme, yes they win the game.

494
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: That was another encouraging thing We can talk about the

495
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 1: turnovers on defense, but the team came out with a

496
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 1: little bit of an energy. They came out. I thought

497
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,400
Speaker 1: it was the first time, really all year we saw

498
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 1: a bit of swagger. And I said that initially on

499
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: the postgame show as well. Was we finally saw some swagger,

500
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: we saw the energy. I don't know what flipped the

501
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 1: switch in that regard, and maybe the early players helped

502
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,400
Speaker 1: to continue that at least until halftime, But then after

503
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: halftime things kind of fell apart and it went back

504
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: to normal. But where does that energy come from from

505
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: a Cowboys perspective? Is it playing for a rookie quarterback,

506
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 1: knowing you had to do your job and just playing

507
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: relentlessly as opposed to playing conservatively and sorry for yourself.

508
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 1: I really think it has a lot to do with

509
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 1: the with the veterans being removed, and I think I

510
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 1: was talking to Nate about this last night. When you

511
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: have some some older veteran guys on the team, you

512
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 1: look to them as a young guy, you look to

513
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 1: them to set the culture, You look at them to

514
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,359
Speaker 1: set the tempo. You don't want to kind of overstep

515
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: your boundaries, right because you're you're you're lower on a

516
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 1: totem poles, so you kind of play your position in

517
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 1: your spot. And you know, even when those guys aren't

518
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 1: doing what they should be doing, you still kind of

519
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: staying you in your spot because you're still second fiddle.

520
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 1: Right as soon as those guys are removed. As soon

521
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 1: as you remove those guys, now what, oh shoot, we

522
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 1: could turn up. You know what I'm saying, We could

523
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 1: turn up. Let's go. I don't have anybody that I

524
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:18,880
Speaker 1: don't have big brother that's gonna say, hey, chill out,

525
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,639
Speaker 1: a little homie. I don't have that, right, So now

526
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 1: I can go out there and I can play free.

527
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 1: And you saw those guys coming out and they're having

528
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: fun and they're getting geeked and they're juiced up, and

529
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: that's what this team needs. And it was very It

530
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 1: was awesome to see. Um. We just need to see

531
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,199
Speaker 1: it turn into more positive plays. There were some positive

532
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,439
Speaker 1: players last night, and the defense did play better and

533
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: I think a lot of that came from that energy.

534
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: So I think it's just the young guys being allowed

535
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 1: to be young guys without having to worry about big

536
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 1: brother looking over their shoulder. Yeah, we got a lot

537
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 1: more we got a lot more from guys that we've

538
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: been calling their name tank. We had a tank siding.

539
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 1: So for all the Tank haters, let's let's talk about

540
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 1: the job the tank did last night. And also Randy Gregory. Gregory,

541
00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 1: they that won what was it the Yeah, the rough

542
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: in the passer? Yeah, yeah, that was a horrible call,

543
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 1: but I think we got an interception based off of that.

544
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 1: But either way, you saw a lot more energy and

545
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 1: whether that was from guys getting the axe of getting

546
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 1: their bus tickets out of town, whatever that was, you

547
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: saw the defense definitely came into the game with a

548
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,360
Speaker 1: different approach and I love seeing it. But just from

549
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: the front line standpoint, you're just not seeing as many

550
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 1: guys get blown off the ball. But I said this before,

551
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: even with getting rid of number ninety five, you may

552
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: realize that you have a few other guys on your

553
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 1: defensive line that are still presenting problems for your scheme

554
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 1: that you're playing. Yeah, that's a good point. I mean

555
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: they Boston Scott. I was worried about him all week,

556
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,679
Speaker 1: and I think he had forty something yards on the

557
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 1: first two drives rushing and he wound up with like

558
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: fifty two. They just hex right. They did a better

559
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 1: job shoring things up with the run defense. But I

560
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 1: mean when take Lawrence says after last game, we need

561
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 1: more fight, we need more backbone, and he's a captain,

562
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: a leader, and he steps up with a sack on

563
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: the second play of the game. And we talked about

564
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 1: the defense needing a spark that set the tone, and

565
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: then we talked about needing takeaway, something to spark this defense.

566
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: Donovan Wilson comes up with takeaway right up the bat,

567
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: and I think they kind of set set the tone

568
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,199
Speaker 1: and got themselves feeling good about themselves. And I think

569
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: they made some adjustments in the run defense if they're

570
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,359
Speaker 1: going to continue this, and that's it was. It was

571
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: a really good performance. It's something to build on. They

572
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: have to be more. They have to find a way

573
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 1: to carry this over though, and if they're gonna do it,

574
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: they've got to be able to continue being sound against

575
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,400
Speaker 1: the run against James Connor this week, against everybody else

576
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: going forward. But I thought that first drive just kind

577
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 1: of set the tone and got them feeling good about

578
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 1: themselves for once. But pick backing off of that, rob

579
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: whenever you make those plays on defense and you come

580
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 1: out with that energy and that fire, that desire, and

581
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 1: then you give the ball back to your offense and

582
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: they go wow wow right, like it literally it takes

583
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: it out of you, man, instead of those guys being

584
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: excited about the next opportunity, right, instead of being excited

585
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: about the next opportuneportunity because guess what, we went out there,

586
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: we got sacks, we got a strip sack whatever it is,

587
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 1: and we and we get the ball right back to

588
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 1: our office and they go out there and they score

589
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Okay, cool, we got a great relationship going, right.

590
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: This is a relationship. Now, this is not one sided.

591
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: Nobody likes being in a relationship where you're always the

592
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: one giving, right, So that's what this is. Can't turn

593
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 1: into that because then you have resentment, and then you

594
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: have guys starting to take plays off, and then you

595
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 1: get guys starting to just collect checks. And we've already

596
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 1: seen that already happen. Oh, you're absolutely right. I do

597
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 1: think this game was a little different in that I

598
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: think everybody knows what Ben was up against this game,

599
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 1: and so you know, maybe now with Andy coming back,

600
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: maybe this week it's a different story. Because like you said,

601
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 1: I mean ten you're vet. You're expecting a guy that's

602
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 1: going to move the offense consistently. That's what you brought

603
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: him in for. But yeah, with Ben, I mean, like

604
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: I said, it was what it was, you know, trying

605
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: trying to get trying to get him going, trying to

606
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 1: help him out, and whenever you talk about the energy,

607
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: I mean, it finally looked like a team that was

608
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: tired to get and pushed around. And maybe it was

609
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 1: a rivalry game, maybe it was because it was primetime,

610
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 1: but even in previous rivalry games or even primetime games,

611
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 1: we had seen them get pushed around and kind of

612
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 1: embarrassed on national television. I don't think they got embarrassed

613
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 1: last night. I thought that was a game they had

614
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 1: a chance to win. Of course, they led at halftime.

615
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 1: They had a chance later on to maybe tie the

616
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: game if they would have had had the drive to

617
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 1: put it together or take the lead if you had

618
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 1: that drive. But like you said, Isaiah, it really was

619
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: deflating to have the offense performed the way they did. Now.

620
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: I mentioned this earlier, but there was also some deflating plays,

621
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: specifically from your whiteouts, and you need every single reception

622
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 1: in a game like this. You need Michael Gallup to

623
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: make a grab. You need Amari Cooper and Ceedee Lamb

624
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: to make the catches that are in their chests. And

625
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: they were on multiple occasions off of a sidearm throw

626
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: from Ben de Nucci that the ball ended up hitting

627
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: off their chest and falling to the turf. What goes

628
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 1: into that as a wide receiver, and it's something that

629
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 1: I think shouldn't be that big of a difference. But

630
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: is it that big of a difference seeing it come

631
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:06,040
Speaker 1: out of the side arm delivery? Well, you gotta get

632
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 1: over the shock of what the heck is going on.

633
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure there's no let me before I say that.

634
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: There's no excuse. Okay, the old school rule, if it

635
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 1: touches your hands or touches your chest, you gotta bring

636
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: you gotta catch it, right, So no excuse, don't let me,

637
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 1: don't let me. I don't want anybody to be misinterpret

638
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But on a hilarious note, what the

639
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 1: heck like when you when you watch them a ball

640
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: come out like that, they probably turned their head. You

641
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 1: ever call a dog's name or you ever done something

642
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 1: to a dog and a dog like that's probably I

643
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: assume that's probably what those guys did when he pulled.

644
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 1: When he threw that thing side on there is that

645
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 1: and then they say, you know, you heard him say

646
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: all week, the ball gets up on you quick, right,

647
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 1: So I'm assuming that's what happened. They probably had a

648
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: little little dog moment and little ears perked up, and

649
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: then the ball kept crept up on him. But I mean,

650
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 1: they gotta make plays, man, There's there's no excuse. They

651
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 1: have to catch the ball. You know, Denucci has to

652
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: do better. I mean, to your point, Kyle, you when

653
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: the ball comes your way, you gotta catch your rocket,

654
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: especially when you're in these situations. Man. But I'm pretty

655
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: sure they were surprised as some of the styles that

656
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: he that he utilized. We compared him to a little motion. Yeah,

657
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 1: we compared him to a couple of different quarterbacks who

658
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: have thrown that way prior, but definitely not the same

659
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,720
Speaker 1: result as some of the names that we threw out

660
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 1: there last night. Now, when we come back, I want

661
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 1: to go to the defensive side of the football. Yes,

662
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 1: there were four turnovers, but there was still plenty that

663
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 1: the Cowboys needed to work on, especially when you've got

664
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: weapons like Chase Claypool, Juju Smith's Schuster, Ben Roethlisberger and

665
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: company coming to town this week. We're gonna talk about

666
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,840
Speaker 1: that defense and were those turnovers gimmis or was it

667
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 1: the defense showing improvement. We'll talk about it next year.

00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: to town. We've got heck, my Harrison, we've got it. Well,

709
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: I'm just I don't have a I don't have a

710
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 1: ticket's read, so I gotta say something about special tickets. Uh,

711
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: Rob Phillips, isaiahs dan Back, I'm Kyle Yeomans, and uh.

712
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 1: We talked about the defense four turnovers, which is one

713
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: more turnover than they had the previous seven games of

714
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,880
Speaker 1: the season combined. So you get the turnovers. You finally

715
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,319
Speaker 1: get that spark. Rob mentioned it earlier. You had to

716
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 1: play from Donovan Wilson early on that that jarred the

717
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: ball free from Carson Wins. He fumbled it again later

718
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: on in the game, and then he also threw a

719
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,840
Speaker 1: pair of picks, both to mister Trayvon Diggs, our second

720
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 1: round rookie out of Alabama. But Rob, whenever you look

721
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:57,359
Speaker 1: at this defense and you finally get those turnovers. Was

722
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 1: it they had a better game or was it just

723
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:07,799
Speaker 1: this Eagles team was pretty terrible on their own? Right? Um? Yeah,

724
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,359
Speaker 1: I mean I think he is. It's all in perspective, right,

725
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:14,319
Speaker 1: But I think I think as as bad as the

726
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 1: defense is played for stretches and really for the entire season,

727
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,320
Speaker 1: with giving up a historic amount of yards and points,

728
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 1: I think you're looking for You're looking for progress. You're

729
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 1: looking for progress no matter who you're playing. Good point.

730
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 1: I think we got it. I think we saw it.

731
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 1: I thought they I think the best thing they did

732
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 1: was was, like Isaiah mentioned was and Heck mentioned was

733
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,400
Speaker 1: the energy level uh and and continuing to kind of

734
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,320
Speaker 1: play for each other and uh and and be a

735
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 1: little bit more assignment sound in the run game. I

736
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 1: think there were steps made there. Um. My question is

737
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: for you guys is with Treyvon Diggs, like I he

738
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 1: had the two picks, Uh, where do you guys feel

739
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 1: about where he's at in his rookie year because teams

740
00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: are still going after him. I like how he bounced

741
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 1: his back and he doesn't let it seem to phase him.

742
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: But I hope, I hope that part of it can

743
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 1: get he can clean some of that technique up or

744
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: whatever it is that's a that's preventing him from u

745
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 1: you know, stopping some of these big plays that they're

746
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: trying to get some downfield. Yeah, he's pretty good at

747
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: his short term memory is pretty good. But then they

748
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 1: continue to come after him. And he's a rookie, and

749
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: you've heard those whispers about possibly benching him and letting

750
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 1: some of the veteran guys go ahead so he can

751
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 1: watch them and not be isolated in a situation where

752
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: it feels like a trial by fire. But that's just

753
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,280
Speaker 1: who he is. And I love what Shaun Lee said

754
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 1: about the rookie that he makes some great plays. If

755
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,560
Speaker 1: he makes a bad play, he's the kind of player

756
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: that doesn't process the bad stuff. He wants to come

757
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:50,640
Speaker 1: back and continue to stay competitive. I like that. I mean,

758
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,320
Speaker 1: just like we talk about Bend Nutie being a quarterback,

759
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback, we have to realize that we have

760
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 1: a rookie cornerback that's getting everything thrown at him. And

761
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 1: he had contest last night versus the guy from Fogum

762
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 1: and Man. That was a battle and at times looked

763
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,280
Speaker 1: like he was getting the best of him. But getting

764
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 1: those two pigs, man, that's gotta be good for his psyche,

765
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: But he has other things that he has to clean

766
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:21,319
Speaker 1: up in his game as well. Cold on this coming

767
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: to me, Oh, I'm letting it come to you. Okay,

768
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 1: how about this here? Let me preface it real quickly

769
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: because one of the biggest, one of the biggest knocks

770
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 1: on treyvon Dix's game coming out of Alabama was the

771
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,799
Speaker 1: fact that he relied on his speed a little bit

772
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: too much to the fact where his fundamentals weren't necessarily there. Now,

773
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: this is once again a guy who switched from receiver

774
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,319
Speaker 1: to play cornerback his junior year at Alabama. So he's

775
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 1: only been a corner for two and a half seasons

776
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 1: really at this point, and even some of that he

777
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 1: was hurt for a good amount of time. So really

778
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 1: less than two seasons he's had in terms of seasoning

779
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 1: at the cornerback position. So keep that in mind when

780
00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 1: you're looking at this guy. He's gonna make plays, but

781
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: he's also going to give him up at the same time.

782
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 1: And we saw that last night. Isaiah. I feel like

783
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,359
Speaker 1: you're about to go into this, but you saw the

784
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,840
Speaker 1: dig's name on the back of the jersey with the

785
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 1: two in the seven there a little bit more than

786
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,400
Speaker 1: you would definitely like, is that what it said on

787
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 1: the back? Yes, I appreciate the information on his his

788
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: lack of experience. I mean that's definitely helpful. As my

789
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 1: criticism of him, I'll hold back a little bit. It's

790
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: a little bit, but you don't have to hold back

791
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 1: at all. I just wanted to give some context. No,

792
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,839
Speaker 1: come on, this is where you know, I's Monday. Let's

793
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:41,399
Speaker 1: go the digs. His two interceptions, he did those right,

794
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:47,319
Speaker 1: credit awesome U terrible plays by wins terrible. One of

795
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 1: them was an awful, awful ball on a deep post

796
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,440
Speaker 1: that was I don't even know what that was. So

797
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: that was a give me that he might as well

798
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 1: have been back there by himself. But Brendan, you know, man,

799
00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 1: one of I don't know it should have been, Yeah, exactly,

800
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: I don't know what that was. So that's that's it.

801
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: Give me um. Then you have a great catch um

802
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 1: in the end zone. Right, a great catch by him.

803
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: But what was Wentz doing in terms of throwing the

804
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: ball away? Right? That was a throwaway ball that just

805
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 1: didn't get thrown away. All the way out of the

806
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:17,279
Speaker 1: field of play. So two terrible plays that I give him.

807
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 1: He has credit for him, but I don't really give

808
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 1: him credit for it. Um. There's a lot of other

809
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 1: players in there where he was playing, where he was

810
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,440
Speaker 1: playing aggressive, and I and I and I and I

811
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: do I do like I do like how tenacious he

812
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,239
Speaker 1: is here he does. He does fight. He has some

813
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,200
Speaker 1: fighting him, he has some dogging him. And that's more

814
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:33,839
Speaker 1: that we can say about a lot of guys on

815
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 1: this team. And I respect the crap out of him

816
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 1: front of that, UM, but he you can see his inexperience.

817
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 1: You can see his inexperience. Every team we've played has

818
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: torched him. Every every ever reach at least once or

819
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 1: at least right. So he's getting torched. And we talked

820
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 1: about this during the week. Rob what I say, I said,

821
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 1: don't let him play man to man. Don't do it.

822
00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,879
Speaker 1: Stop putting him in these situations. He can't do it.

823
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: He keeps walking up there like he wants to put

824
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 1: his hands on somebody, and then guess what, he doesn't

825
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:05,799
Speaker 1: put his hands on them. He sits up there. He

826
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 1: tries to shadow them. Right when I say shadow them,

827
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,879
Speaker 1: it's literally like he's in front of them and he's

828
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 1: trying to make a mirror what they're doing at the

829
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 1: release point, off the line of scrimmage, and then they

830
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 1: just simply say, oh, he's not gonna touch me, show them,

831
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 1: and they just run by him. Right And we saw

832
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:22,920
Speaker 1: it last night, Yeah, we saw it last night, and

833
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 1: where it happened multiple times again where guys are just

834
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: running by him and it's just bad man. At a

835
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 1: certain point, you got to stop with that technique. If

836
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: you're a big dude, you're a big corner, get up

837
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:33,479
Speaker 1: there and put your hands on him. If you're afraid

838
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: of getting beat guess what they're beating you anyways, So

839
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 1: you might as well go up there and see what

840
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: it looks like when you try to put your hands

841
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 1: on somebody. Use your size, use your length, and then

842
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,800
Speaker 1: go up there and continue to beat to nations. Continue

843
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:46,359
Speaker 1: to be a pest, because that's what you are. You're

844
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,279
Speaker 1: a pest. That's what you want to be as as

845
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 1: a cornerback in this league. You have a lot of

846
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 1: great attributes, but playing off coverage, off man, press coverage,

847
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,239
Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it, that's not working to

848
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 1: your advantage. I'll figure something else out. I will say

849
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 1: the way he battles, and you're right. I mean he's

850
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:04,319
Speaker 1: given up a lot of big plays and he's not

851
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: the only one this year. But the way he battles

852
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,360
Speaker 1: is what Mike McCarthy's looking for, what Mike Goland's looking for.

853
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 1: Just continuing to fight, continuing to hang in there. And

854
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 1: I think I think they think he's gonna be better

855
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:17,959
Speaker 1: for it. I knew too, but yeah, I mean it's

856
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,439
Speaker 1: it's it's it's been a it's been a tough year

857
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,319
Speaker 1: for him. I mean it's been tough there. Quarterbacks going

858
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: after the rookie. Yeah, he's an easy target, right, you

859
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 1: got a rookie cornerback out there that's playing press man

860
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 1: go at him. But that goes back to what we

861
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 1: talked about the culture change being God's not hanging their

862
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:38,399
Speaker 1: head when they make a bad play, and that's been

863
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: what we've done. As soon as the bleeding starts, we

864
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 1: don't know how to stop it, so you know, God's

865
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 1: just continue to let things get away from them. I

866
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,879
Speaker 1: like the way that the defense battled last night. Things

867
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 1: went didn't go that way, they stayed in it. They

868
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,200
Speaker 1: continue to try and fight. I love that leadership from

869
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,760
Speaker 1: our guys like Tank I loved it, from Alvin smith

870
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 1: Um and seeing these guys vander Esh even get involved

871
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 1: in getting a sack that was awesome to see and

872
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 1: that was something that he needed for his own psyche

873
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,959
Speaker 1: coming off the collar bone and the neck and everything else.

874
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,279
Speaker 1: And so if they have anything to build on, and

875
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: I know, look, Treyvon Diggs has to tape out there

876
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,480
Speaker 1: that says that he has had some bad plays, but

877
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:22,400
Speaker 1: we also have other tape that shows him being aggressive

878
00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:25,640
Speaker 1: and gambling. Look when he did have a safety over

879
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 1: the top and they tried him on that side, he

880
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 1: broke on the ball and he was a step away. Look,

881
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 1: almost don't count in this situation. But he's getting close

882
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 1: to being the playmaker that we want him to be.

883
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,319
Speaker 1: So look, he's a rookie. We can't just put him

884
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: peggy and put him in this hole and say, look,

885
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,400
Speaker 1: this is what you are. But we can definitely build

886
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,240
Speaker 1: off of the good things that he's doing. And heck,

887
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 1: yes we can build on it. And I agree with

888
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:48,879
Speaker 1: you and a lot of things, probably by ninety percent

889
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,440
Speaker 1: of the things you said, but that ten percent has

890
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 1: to do everything with the fact you said he's getting close. Yeah,

891
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,879
Speaker 1: not close. Heck, he's not close. He will be maybe

892
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: next year, maybe the year after that. This year we

893
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 1: were sponsored by Tostitos. He's getting Tostito out there right

894
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:08,279
Speaker 1: and and this road to listen up. Man, Hey, he's

895
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:12,360
Speaker 1: not He's not close. Man, let's just be real. I

896
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 1: love him for a lot of reasons. I love his

897
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:15,719
Speaker 1: You guys, I'll be the first one to get into it,

898
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 1: get him, get get on his head every week. I

899
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 1: love There's things that he has, there's attributes that he has.

900
00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 1: Is you can't teach. You can't teach right, You can't

901
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,000
Speaker 1: teach the grit. You can't teach us his competitiveness. You

902
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 1: can't teach his hunger. You can't teach how aggressive he is. Right,

903
00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:30,960
Speaker 1: You can't teach those things. Those are things that you

904
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 1: have to want to do, have to want to be.

905
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: You can't teach the fact that he has a short

906
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 1: memory and when the balls in the air, he can

907
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 1: go get it. Oh yeah, yeah, he can go get

908
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,920
Speaker 1: the ball. But all I'm saying is Al Harris is

909
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,600
Speaker 1: his coach. Al Harris used to be the dude that

910
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:46,760
Speaker 1: put his hands on you at the line of scrimmage.

911
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:49,960
Speaker 1: Why isn't he doing that? All these guys that are

912
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 1: burning him are literally just coming off the ball, giving

913
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,800
Speaker 1: him a little shimmy and then taking off and gassing

914
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,400
Speaker 1: on him. I don't know if he's if he's that

915
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,319
Speaker 1: confident in his speed. Bro, this is in college. These

916
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:01,880
Speaker 1: dudes got juice. Man, these are grown men. You have

917
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:03,320
Speaker 1: to do that you face last night. It is a

918
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:05,560
Speaker 1: lot bigger than you. He's six two two fifteen and

919
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:09,080
Speaker 1: he disrespected you right number of times. These dudes can fall.

920
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 1: These guys that are coming here this week, they're way

921
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,840
Speaker 1: faster than the guys that you just face, way faster.

922
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 1: I think the Fogum didn't just do that to him.

923
00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 1: Fogum has done that to a lot of guys, a

924
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,200
Speaker 1: lot of guys. I'm saying the technique, the technique that

925
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 1: you're talking about, it's just getting your head turned around.

926
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 1: I'm talking about when he had a safety at the

927
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,799
Speaker 1: top and he broke on the ball, that's it. And

928
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 1: little things like that. You can take it for a

929
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: rookie that we're trying to build him up and not

930
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 1: destroy his confidence. That's what I'm talking about, Isaiah. I know,

931
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 1: and like I said, I agree with a lot of

932
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,320
Speaker 1: those things. Heck, but he has to change these techniques.

933
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,239
Speaker 1: And I don't know, and I know, I know they're

934
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:47,719
Speaker 1: teaching him these techniques. I don't know what's going on

935
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 1: why he's not applying these and taking them to the field.

936
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:52,399
Speaker 1: But he better figure it out because these, like I said,

937
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:54,920
Speaker 1: these dudes coming in here this week, these guys are

938
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 1: they're on they're on a track team. They're on a

939
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 1: four bar one track team, and they all got that

940
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:01,520
Speaker 1: gold juice. Yep. Well, whenever you look at some of

941
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,040
Speaker 1: the receivers he's going up against, and Diggs is losing

942
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 1: those battles at the line of scrimmage, and I think

943
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,160
Speaker 1: that's something that comes with the cornerback position in the

944
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,960
Speaker 1: NFL that you just have to learn trial by fire.

945
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,520
Speaker 1: But he's not losing against nobodies. I mean last night

946
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:17,320
Speaker 1: he lost against Fulgham, who's turned into possibly one of

947
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 1: the best receivers in the NFC East. All of a sudden,

948
00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,560
Speaker 1: you had Terry McLaurin last week, who already is in

949
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:25,280
Speaker 1: that category. Earlier in the year, it was Julio Jones,

950
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 1: it was DeAndre Hopkins, it was all of these different

951
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:30,839
Speaker 1: players that are top notch guys that were burning Trey

952
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:36,759
Speaker 1: Von Diggs. So listen, let me, let me make my point.

953
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:38,920
Speaker 1: Let me make my point. But if you're gonna have

954
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 1: him as that caliber player that you need him to

955
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,279
Speaker 1: be as your top corner, he's gonna have to win

956
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,720
Speaker 1: those battles at the line of scrimmage, and he hasn't.

957
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:49,720
Speaker 1: We saw it last night on the touchdown pass to Fulgham.

958
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:51,840
Speaker 1: He didn't. He lost that at the line of scrimmage

959
00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:53,239
Speaker 1: and because of that, he had to rely on his

960
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,360
Speaker 1: speed to catch back up. He needs to win those battles.

961
00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 1: He hasn't so far. And until he wins those, then

962
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 1: he's gonna get burned on occasion against some of the

963
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,239
Speaker 1: better receivers in the NFL. And he's gonna get a

964
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 1: chance again this week against Juju Smith Schuster, going up

965
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,960
Speaker 1: against the talent that Pittsburgh brings to the table on

966
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:12,200
Speaker 1: that side of the football. But we're gonna talk more

967
